I am asking in the domain of politics. Tell me about Ireland to collect billions from Apple in back taxes
|
{
"text": [
"LONDON (AP) — Ireland says it will begin collecting more than 13 billion euros ($15.9 billion) of back taxes from Apple, 19 months after the European Commission ruled that a tax deal with the tech giant amounted to illegal state aid.\nThe Commission ordered Ireland to collect back taxes for the years 2003-2014, which it estimated at 13 billion euros plus interest. Ireland disagreed, saying the ruling undermined the integrity of the country's tax system.\nBut Finance Minister Paschal Donohoe says he will on Tuesday sign an agreement setting up the escrow account that will hold the payments while Apple and Ireland appeal. The payments should be completed by September.\nDonohoe says the government \"fundamentally disagrees with the ruling,\" but \"Ireland is intent on complying with our binding legal obligations in this regard.\""

"PRAGUE (AP) — NHL great Jaromir Jagr signed a deal Wednesday with a team he owns in the Czech Republic.\nThe move comes a couple days after the Calgary Flames placed the forward on unconditional waivers to terminate his contract.\nThe club confirmed the contract between Jagr and the Kladno Knights in the second-tier Czech league has been signed but no details have been immediately available. Jagr planned a news conference in Kladno for Thursday.\nKladno, just west of the capital Prague, is Jagr's hometown.\nThe 45-year-old Jagr had only a goal and six assists in 22 games for Calgary after signing a one-year, $1 million contract on Oct. 4 as an unrestricted free agent. He hasn't played since Dec. 31 because of what the team called a lower-body injury.\nJagr might play for the Knights as soon as Saturday but Kladno spokesman Vit Heral has not yet confirmed that."

I am asking in the domain of politics. Tell me about Commission to unveil ideas to fix college basketball's woes
|
{
"text": [
"RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) — College basketball played an entire season amid a federal corruption investigation that magnified long-simmering troubles within the sport, from shady agent dealings to concerns over athletes who'd rather go straight to the pros.\nNow it's time to hear new ideas on how to fix the complex, wide-ranging problems.\nOn Wednesday morning, the commission headed by former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice will present its proposed reforms to university presidents of the NCAA Board of Governors and the Division I Board of Directors at the NCAA headquarters in Indianapolis. And that starts what could be a complicated process in getting changes adopted and implemented for next season.\n\"I expect the proposals will be strong,\" NCAA president Mark Emmert told The Associated Press. \"They'll certainly break with the status quo. That's their charge and their mission. That's what we need.\n\"I think it's going to be a very good day for college sports,\" he said.\nThat would be welcome, considering there has been no shortage of bad days in recent months.\nThe Commission on College Basketball formed in October , a few weeks after federal prosecutors announced they had charged 10 men — including assistant coaches at Arizona, Auburn, USC and Oklahoma State along with a top Adidas executive — in a fraud and bribery scandal.\nThe case involves hundreds of thousands of dollars in alleged bribes and kickbacks designed to influence recruits on choosing a school, agent or apparel company. And it has entangled schools such as Kansas, North Carolina State , Louisville and Miami , among others, though prosecutors withdrew a criminal complaint in Feburary against one of the defendants, a youth hoops program director.\nAtlantic Coast Conference commissioner John Swofford said that case has put college sports in the position of reacting instead of proactively heading off yet-to-emerge problems.\n\"Sometimes unfortunately that's what it takes,\" Swofford told the AP. \"You'd like to think that collectively the basketball world could've seen this coming and had the foresight to get out ahead of it. But that's not reality. Organizations and people, we all sometimes need wake-up calls. And I see this as a wake-up call, and therefore an opportunity.\"\nOne the Rice commission wants to seize.\nIt was charged with finding ways to reform and modernize rules, including looking at the NCAA's relationship with the NBA, youth leagues, apparel companies and agents. It was also set to review an enforcement process that frequently takes years to resolve complicated cases of potentially major rules violations.\nThe commission features several prominent names in the sport, including former NBA stars Grant Hill and David Robinson, former Georgetown coach John Thompson III, retired college coach Mike Montgomery and Ohio State athletic director Gene Smith.\n\"The stage is set, certainly, given what's happened with law enforcement and what we've seen in media reports around men's basketball at the collegiate level,\" Southeastern Conference commissioner Greg Sankey told the AP. \"You involve Condoleezza Rice because you want an impactful outcome.\"\nAfter Rice presents Wednesday morning, the boards will meet to consider adopting the commission's recommendations, either fully or in part. The next stop would be the Division I Council, a group mostly made up of athletic directors, to craft legislation for implementation.\nEmmert said the council is already forming subgroups to deal with the targeted areas the commission is expected to address, with the goal of having legislation ready to be presented by August in time for next season.\nSwofford, for one, said he'd prefer to end the one-and-done model of top NBA prospects arriving in college for one-year pit stops before turning professional, though that would also take agreement from the NBA. Swofford prefers a model similar to baseball by allowing high schoolers to go straight to the pros but require players who enter college to spend two years there.\nHe'd also like to see the NBA-run G League become a stronger developmental option for athletes who don't want to come to college, a path recently chosen by former Syracuse recruit and McDonald's All-American Darius Bazley.\nRegardless, Swofford said, changes must be broad-based because \"I don't think there's a silver bullet here\" to fix everything. And he expects the commission to offer \"substantive\" findings.\n\"If we can't react to something like this in a way that brings significant improvement to the system and to what we're doing, shame on us,\" Swofford said.\n___\nAP College Sports Writer Ralph D. Russo in New York and AP Sports Writer John Zenor in Birmingham, Alabama, contributed to this report.\n___\nMore AP college basketball: http://collegebasketball.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP_Top25\n___\nFollow Aaron Beard on Twitter at http://www.twitter.com/aaronbeardap"

I am asking in the domain of politics. Tell me about State regulators consider whether to approve Northern Pass
|
{
"text": [
"CONCORD, N.H. (AP) — After more than two years of sometimes contentious debate, New Hampshire regulators are on the verge of deciding whether to approve the Northern Pass hydropower project.\nThe Site Evaluation Committee on Tuesday began 12 days of public deliberations on the $1.6 billion plan to bring hydropower from Canada by creating a 192-mile transmission line through New Hampshire for customers in southern New England. It is expected to reach an oral decision by Feb. 23 and a written decision by March 31. They could approve or reject the project, or approve it with a series of conditions.\nMuch of the discussion Tuesday focused on whether the utility behind the project, Eversource, has the financial and technical ability to build it. Members also debated whether the construction expected to begin as soon as April would impact local businesses and tourism, especially traffic during the fall foliage season. The project is expected to start producing power by the end of 2020.\nGoing forward, members must consider whether the project would negatively impact regional development as well as whether it would be detrimental to the region's air and water quality, historic sites and public health and safety.\nNorthern Pass has formal contracts with suppliers and a labor agreement with construction managers and unions. It's been granted permits by the Energy Department and the U.S. Forest Service, and has the support of Massachusetts energy officials. It still needs a U.S. Army Corps of Engineers permit related to its impact on wetlands and the power supplier, Hydro-Quebec, needs project approval from the national electric board in Canada.\nSupporters say the project will create jobs, bring development to the northern part of the state and cut energy costs.\nOpponents fear transmission line towers — some as high as 155 feet — will destroy scenic views, reduce property values and hurt tourism. They also argue the project offers few benefits to New Hampshire, since much of the power is slated to go to customers in Massachusetts.\nLast week, the project was selected from among dozens of bids submitted last year under a 2016 law that called for a significant boost in the supply of renewable energy in Massachusetts. It would transmit enough hydropower for about a million homes.\n\"There are many reasons why this project is important for the state of New Hampshire. It is also important now for the state of Massachusetts and the region as a whole,\" Eversource New Hampshire President Bill Quinlan told reporters during a break in the hearing. \"It couldn't be clearer from the experience this winter during the cold snap that a new, diverse base load power supply is important to keeping energy costs low and meeting our environmental goals.\"\nDespite the Massachusetts decision, opponents said they remain confident the committee will reject the project.\nJudy Reardon, a senior adviser for Protect the Granite State, a group opposed to the project, said the testimony thus far has shown that \"Northern Pass is a bad deal for New Hampshire.\"\n\"If built, the project will devastate our environment, do significant harm to our small businesses and tourist economy while having virtually no impact on lowering our electric rates,\" she said in a statement. \"Northern Pass will simply make New Hampshire into an extension cord to transport power to Massachusetts and southern New England, which is unacceptable.\""

"text": [
"The arrival of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang cannot come quickly enough for Arsenal.\nA 3-1 loss on Tuesday to Swansea, which started the match as the Premier League's last-place team, punctured some of the optimism generated by the imminent signing of one of Europe's most lethal strikers.\nAubumeyang flew to London earlier in the day to put the finishing touches to a drawn-out transfer from Borussia Dortmund that Arsenal hopes will be completed on Wednesday, the final day of the January transfer window.\nHe would be joining a team that slipped eight points off the Champions League qualification positions as a result of the chastening loss in south Wales. Arsenal has just 13 games to claw back the deficit, or it will be out of Europe's elite competition for a second straight season.\nSwansea midfielder Sam Clucas scored either side of a goal by Jordan Ayew following a dreadful error by Arsenal goalkeeper Petr Cech, who miskicked a clearance straight to the striker.\nOlivier Giroud came on as a late substitute for what could be his last appearance for Arsenal, with Aubameyang arriving as a direct replacement for the France striker. Giroud waved to Arsenal's traveling fans before the leaving the pitch after the final whistle.\nAsked about the departure of Giroud and the arrival of Aubameyang, Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger said all will be revealed on Wednesday morning.\nHenrikh Mkhitaryan played the final half hour in his first appearance for Arsenal since joining from Manchester United in a swap deal with Alexis Sanchez.\nFourth-place Liverpool capitalized on Arsenal's slip-up by beating Huddersfield 3-0 away to move eight points clear of Wenger's team. Emre Can, Roberto Firmino and Mohamed Salah — from the penalty spot — were the scorers.\nWest Ham drew 1-1 with Crystal Palace in the other game.\n___\nMore AP Premier League coverage: https://apnews.com/tag/PremierLeague\n___\nSteve Douglas is at www.twitter.com/sdouglas80"

"PHILADELPHIA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 30, 2018--While it is common for everyone to feel down or sad at times, a person whose symptoms last for more than two weeks may be having a major depressive episode, according to The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMSHA). 1 An estimated 16.2 million adults in the United States had at least one major depressive episode in 2016, according to the National Institute of Mental Health. 2\nThis press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20180530006418/en/\nThe treatments for depression can vary and include medications, psychotherapy or a combination of the two. “Often the most difficult cases of depression can be effectively treated,” said Michael Golinkoff, Ph.D., M.B.A., president of PerformCare, a managed behavioral health organization and part of the AmeriHealth Caritas Family of Companies. “However, the sooner the treatment can begin, the better it will work.”\nSomeone may be experiencing depression and not realize they have it, as the symptoms vary. About 37 percent of adults with a major depressive episode did not receive treatment. 3 It’s also important to point out that without proper treatment, the symptoms can get worse. 4\nAccording to SAMSHA, some of the warning signs of depression4 include\nSadness, anxiety, or feeling “empty” Feelings of hopelessness, pessimism, guilt, worthlessness, or helplessness Fatigue or decreased energy level Change in appetite At the extreme, thoughts of death or suicide, or suicide attempts.\nThe warning signs of depression should never be ignored. Anyone with these symptoms should speak with their primary care provider or a behavior health specialist. Loved ones or friends who exhibit these symptoms should be encouraged to do the same.\n“If we feel physically ill we get medical treatment without giving it a second thought,” added Dr. Golinkoff. “We should think of mental illness in much the same way.”\nReferences\nSAMHSA, “Depression: Definition,” May 12, 2017, https://www.samhsa.gov/treatment/mental-disorders/depression (accessed May 15, 2018).

I am asking in the domain of tech. Tell me about Trump remaking federal policy on women's reproductive health
|
{
"text": [
"WASHINGTON (AP) — Step by methodical step, the Trump administration is remaking government policy on reproductive health — moving to limit access to birth control and abortion and bolstering abstinence-only sex education.\nSocial and religious conservatives praise the administration for promoting \"a culture of life.\" But women's-rights activists and some medical experts view the multi-pronged changes as a dangerous ideological shift that could increase unintended pregnancies and abortions.\n\"When I ran for office, I pledged to stand for life,\" President Donald Trump said in a recent speech to the Susan B. Anthony List, which backs political candidates who oppose abortion. \"And as president, that's exactly what I've done. And I have kept my promise, and I think everybody here understands that fully.\"\nMost of the changes involve rules and regulations under the administration's direct control, such as a proposal to forbid federally funded family planning clinics from referring women for abortions and separately allowing more employers who cite moral or religious reasons to opt out of no-cost birth control for women workers.\nTrump also is appointing numerous new federal judges endorsed by anti-abortion groups.\nJustice Neil Gorsuch, the president's only appointment to the Supreme Court so far, has a sparse record on abortion, but has drawn praise from anti-abortion groups and criticism from abortion rights supporters. Unlike regulatory changes, judicial appointments cannot be reversed by a future president.\nDemocrats say Trump is changing policy in ways that could disrupt access to family planning for some women.\nA recently proposed rule would make major changes to Title X, the family-planning program, including banning clinics from sharing physical space and financial resources with abortion providers. Providers like Planned Parenthood could be forced out.\n\"It's across the spectrum of women's health services,\" said Rep. Diana DeGette, D-Col. \"They're proposing abstinence-only sex education —which study after study has shown doesn't work— restrictions to family planning, and more and more restrictions to abortion.\"\nTitle X serves about 4 million low-income people, mainly women. Disruptions could affect women's access to long-acting contraceptives, such as implants and IUDs. Those are more effective than daily pills that can be forgotten but also much more expensive up-front.\nEight professional groups representing doctors, nurses, midwives and physician assistants say the Title X proposal \"dangerously intrudes\" on the patient-provider relationship. That could lead to more unplanned pregnancies, medical complications and undiagnosed diseases.\n\"The strange thing about this is that people who want to decrease the number of abortions are taking away access to the very services that help prevent them,\" said Dr. Hal Lawrence, CEO of the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, one of the eight groups. Among the others are the American College of Nurse-Midwives and the American Academy of Pediatrics.\nThe administration says it supports family planning and isn't cutting funding — merely drawing a \"bright line\" between birth control and abortion. Officials say the doctor-patient relationship is protected because if a woman asks for an abortion referral, Title X doctors could offer a list of pregnancy services providers, including some who perform abortions.\nAbortion is legal, but under longstanding law and regulations, taxpayer money cannot be used to pay for abortions. Planned Parenthood, a major provider of both kinds of services, can receive federal family-planning grants while separately providing abortions.\nTrump's changes come at a time when U.S. rates of births overall, births to teens, and abortions are low.\n\"If we were seeing skyrocketing abortion rates and wildly high numbers on teen births, you could say we have a crisis, but this is just the opposite,\" said Kathleen Sebelius, secretary of Health and Human Services under President Barack Obama, and a supporter of abortion rights. \"This is playing politics and putting people in a very precarious situation.\"\nIn addition to the proposed changes to Title X, other regulatory actions include:\n— Proposing a shift in the Teen Pregnancy Prevention Program to emphasize an abstinence-only approach.\n— Proposing new criteria for federal family-planning grants that would favor applicants who promote \"natural family planning\" and abstinence.\n— Expanding a ban on U.S. funding to foreign organizations that promote or provide abortions.\nProfessor Michael New, who teaches economics at Ave Maria University in Florida, agrees there's a major policy shift. But New, who opposes abortion, dismisses claims of dire consequences as \"false and frankly absurd.\"\n\"President Trump is decidedly pro-life and it is his administration's prerogative to use federal funding rules to incrementally build a culture of life,\" said New. \"The administration is seeking to redirect tax dollars away from entities like Planned Parenthood that treat abortion as a method of family planning and toward entities that affirm life and provide more holistic health care services.\"\nPlanned Parenthood, which survived attempts by congressional Republicans to deny it funding, says the administration's proposed changes to Title X could be another way of achieving the same goal. Planned Parenthood serves 41 percent of program clients, and operates 13 percent of the clinics.\nSuch facilities have become a specialized niche. Research from Texas after that state moved to oust Planned Parenthood showed that other local providers like community health centers were not able to easily fill the gap.\nDr. Stephanie Ho works for Planned Parenthood at a clinic in Arkansas that will have to stop offering medication abortions because of a state law that the Supreme Court this week allowed to take effect. The combination of state restrictions and administration actions worries her.\n\"They're pushing their views on everyone,\" she said. \"They're ignoring scientific evidence and expert medical opinion.\"\nTop Planned Parenthood officials say they will fight to remain in Title X, and will consider litigation if necessary to challenge new rules. HHS is expected to announce funding awards for the $260-million program this fall.\nAt a time when social mores on human reproduction continue changing across the world, some see the U.S. in a time warp.\n\"A lot of social conservative activists are still fighting the battles from the '60s and the sexual revolution,\" said Adam Sonfield, policy manager at The Guttmacher Institute, a research organization that supports abortion rights. \"That's their ultimate goal — that some people will just give up and stop having sex.\"\nBut Kristi Hamrick, spokeswoman for Students for Life of America, said one result of the policy changes \"may be that American women will find that life goes on without Planned Parenthood.\"\n___\nCrary reported from New York."

"text": [
"BERLIN (AP) — A member of the nationalist Alternative for Germany party has become chairman of the German parliament's important budget committee, winning lackluster backing after opponents forced a rare vote for the post.\nPeter Boehringer was elected Wednesday with votes only from his own party and the pro-business Free Democrats. The opposition Left Party opposed him and representatives of other parties abstained.\nOpponents objected to past comments on various issues by Boehringer, an opponent of the euro.\nAlternative for Germany, or AfD, is likely to be the biggest opposition party once a new government is formed. The budget committee post traditionally goes to the largest opposition group.\nGerman lawmakers have blocked an AfD lawmaker from joining a committee that oversees the country's intelligence services and rejected the party's candidate for deputy speaker."

I am asking in the domain of tech. Tell me about Border wall, Hudson River project hold up spending bill
|
{
"text": [
"WASHINGTON (AP) — Battles over priorities in a huge government-wide spending bill are essentially settled, leaving a scaled-back plan for President Donald Trump's border wall and a huge rail project that pits Trump against Capitol Hill's most powerful Democrat as the top issues to be solved.\nAn agreement could be announced as early as Tuesday.\nEfforts to tackle politically-charged immigration issues and rapidly rising health insurance premiums appeared to be faltering.\nCapitol Hill Democrats rejected a White House bid to extend protections for so-called Dreamer immigrants in exchange for $25 billion in funding for a wall on the U.S.-Mexico border. Democrats appeared likely to yield on $1.6 billion in wall funding, Trump's official request for the 2018 budget year, but they were digging in against Trump's plans to hire hundreds of new immigration agents.\nA dispute over abortion seemed likely to scuttle a Senate GOP plan to provide billions in federal subsidies to insurers to help curb health insurance premium increases.\nSen. Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., was working on Trump's behalf against funding for a Hudson River tunnel and rail project that's important to Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., and Republicans from New York and New Jersey.\nMonday's developments were described by several lawmakers — as well as congressional aides in both parties who spoke on condition of anonymity because the talks remain secretive.\nHouse and Senate action is needed by midnight Friday to avert another government shutdown.\nThe bill would implement last month's budget agreement, providing 10 percent increases for the Pentagon and domestic agencies. Coupled with last year's tax cuts, it heralds the return of trillion-dollar budget deficits as soon as the budget year starting in October.\nMany battles over policy riders were sorted out in marathon negotiations over the weekend. As is typical, many of the policy issues were melting away.\n\"We've had at least 100 that we've taken out,\" said Vermont Sen. Patrick Leahy, top Democrat on the Appropriations Committee.\nFor instance, an effort to add a plan to revive federal subsidies to stabilize the individual health insurance market and help the poor cover out-of-pocket costs under President Barack Obama's health law appeared to be failing. A complicated dispute involving abortion was at fault.\nTrump told Sens. Lamar Alexander, R-Tenn., and Susan Collins, R-Maine, that he supports addressing the health insurance issue now as part of the catchall spending plan.\nAlexander and Collins are seeking to revive payments to insurers, which Trump halted last fall, that reimburse the carriers for reducing out-of-pocket costs for many low-earning customers. Those reductions are required by the Obama health law, and insurers have made up for the lost federal payments by boosting premiums.\nThe Republicans said their subsidy plan would reduce premiums by up to 40 percent over time. They would also create a $30 billion, three-year reinsurance program that states could use to help insurers afford to cover their most seriously ill, expensive consumers.\nDemocrats, however, oppose GOP provisions that would forbid the federal payments from being used to help pay for insurance policies that provide abortion.\nAnd Republicans appeared likely to fail in a bid to fix a glitch in the recent tax bill that subsidizes grain sales to cooperatives at the expense of for-profit grain companies, several aides said.\n\"We need to fix that problem,\" said House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif.\nElsewhere, efforts to use the measure as a vehicle to extend protections for young immigrants under the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrival, or DACA, program appeared likely to fail, lawmakers and aides said. Trump killed the Obama-era program in September, but a court decision has essentially left it in place, for now. The White House had revived the idea in recent days — offering on Sunday a 30-month extension of DACA protections in exchange for $25 billion for Trump's border wall — but Democrats demanded protections for a broader pool of immigrants than had signed up for DACA, a request denied by GOP negotiators.\n\"Nobody's really moved,\" said No. 2 Senate Republican John Cornyn of Texas.\nTrump tweeted Monday night: \"The Democrats do not want to help DACA. Would be so easy to make a deal!\"\nThe president, meanwhile, has privately threatened to veto the whole package if a $900 million payment is made on the Hudson River Gateway Project, a priority for Schumer. Trump's opposition is alarming Northeastern Republicans such as Rep. Peter King of New York, who lobbied Trump on the project at a St. Patrick's luncheon in the Capitol Thursday.\nThe Gateway Project would add an $11 billion rail tunnel under the Hudson River to complement deteriorating, century-old tunnels that are at risk of closing in a few years. It enjoys bipartisan support among key Appropriations panel negotiators on the omnibus measure who want to get the expensive project on track while their coffers are flush with money.\n___\nAssociated Press writer Alan Fram contributed to this report."

"text": [
"LEBANON, Mo. (AP) — A suburban Kansas City attorney has been found not guilty of killing her millionaire father and his girlfriend in a vicious attack at their Missouri lake house that prosecutors said was fueled by jealousy, even though jurors said they doubted her innocence.\nSusan \"Liz\" Van Note, 48, of Lee's Summit, was acquitted Tuesday night of two counts of first-degree murder in the 2010 deaths of 67-year-old William Van Note and 59-year-old Sharon Dickson, The Kansas City Star (http://bit.ly/2kx1VdE ) reports.\nDickson died at the couple's Lake of the Ozarks vacation house after being stabbed and shot. William Van Note was also stabbed and shot, but he survived and was taken to a Columbia hospital. Prosecutors say Susan Van Note subsequently forged her father's signature on power of attorney documents so she could authorize his removal from the ventilator that was keeping him alive.\nJury foreman Merri Hess said the panel felt Van Note, who specialized in end-of-life matters, was involved but that they couldn't convict her on the evidence presented.\n\"'Not guilty' does not mean innocent,\" Hess said.\nAuthorities allege Susan Van Note had filed for bankruptcy and was angry that her father had named Dickson to inherit the bulk of his estate, which had a net worth in 2009 of nearly $8 million. After his death, his daughter assumed the role of the estate's executor.\nLead prosecutor Kevin Zoellner described Van Note in his closing argument as a \"terrible killer\" who \"used her mouth to tell the hospital to kill\" her father. He said a call from Van Note's cellphone to her home pinged a tower near the crime scene minutes after the attack.\nHer attorneys pointed to another man, who has since disappeared, as the killer. No hair, blood, DNA or fibers linked Van Note to the crime scene.\nSusan Van Note's mother, Barbara Van Note, told investigators that her daughter was home in Lee's Summit when the killings happened 119 miles away in Sunrise Beach. Barbara Van Note went to prison in 2005 for forging her own mother's name to a power of attorney, and she was ordered to repay $108,000 to a trust fund.\nThe trial initially was to have been in June 2015, but a mistrial was declared. A second attempt at the proceedings two months later ended when Susan Van Note's lawyers challenged the admissibility of cellphone evidence.\nDickson's son, Andrew Dickson, has a wrongful death case pending against Susan Van Note.\n___\nInformation from: The Kansas City Star, http://www.kcstar.com"

I am asking in the domain of politics. Tell me about Serena's marriage sparks Wimbledon debate over Miss and Mrs.
|
{
"text": [
"LONDON (AP) — Serena Williams' recent marriage has shined a spotlight on one of Wimbledon's many quirky traditions.\nSuddenly \"Miss Williams\" has become \"Mrs. Williams\" in the words of chair umpires — a small change that has led to bigger-picture questions about whether the All England Club is too old-fashioned.\nOnly the women at the grass-court Grand Slam are addressed with a title before their names to reflect their marital status.\nIn other words, when a chair umpire announces that Serena has won a game, it's, \"Game, Mrs. Williams.\"\nFor her sister Venus, it's, \"Game, Miss Williams.\"\nAnd for Roger Federer, it's simply: \"Game, Federer.\"\nIt's a difference that is in contrast to other moves in the name of gender equality in tennis. Since 2007, there is equal prize money for men and women at all Grand Slam tournaments. And over the first three days this week, there were more women's matches scheduled for Centre Court than men's — something that decades ago just wouldn't happen.\nHowever, the players themselves seem rather indifferent — or even unaware — when it comes to how they are addressed.\n\"They call Serena 'Mrs. Williams'?\" Venus asked after her second-round victory when the subject was raised. \"That's cool. I mean, I remember Janet Jackson had that song and she said, 'Miss Jackson.' I like that. I am Miss Williams, so ... .\"\nThe \"Miss\" or \"Mrs.\" used to be included on scoreboards as well, but that tradition was dropped in 2009.\nFederer said he hadn't realized that the women are addressed differently depending on their marital status. He's also perfectly fine with chair umpires not using a \"Mr.\" in front of his and other male players' names.\n\"For me, I'm happy if they say whatever they say, as long as it is 'game' and my name somewhere, and not 'game' and the other name,\" Federer said with a laugh Wednesday. \"That makes sense, right?\"\nThis is Serena's first Wimbledon since she married Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian in November. That union has given her a new place in Wimbledon's official fact book as well — in the list that details the marriages of all past women's champions, runners-up and semifinalists.\nThere are no such marriage lists for the men.\n\"I actually never knew they had that,\" Williams said after her second-round victory on Centre Court. \"It will be interesting to know why it's not for both sexes.\"\nThe tournament fact book shows multiple marriages as well — 1923 doubles runner-up Joan Austin had four husbands, for instance — although Williams is confident that will never apply to her.\n\"Hopefully,\" she said, \"it will be just one.\""

I am asking in the domain of politics. Tell me about AP Interview: Chinese editor Hu Shuli steps aside, not down
|
{
"text": [
"BEIJING (AP) — Some say China's most prominent journalist is finished.\nFar from it, says Hu Shuli, founder of the financial magazine Caixin.\nHu listened one recent afternoon to the theories floating in China's chattering class about why she was handing over the editorial reins at Caixin, the only newsroom known for hard-hitting, investigative reporting in China — and dismissed them.\n\"Laughable rumors,\" Hu snapped. \"I'm not stepping back or stepping down. You could say I'm stepping up.\"\nIn a rare interview with the Associated Press, Hu spoke bullishly about transitioning this month into a publisher role at the newsmagazine she co-founded in 2009, and about the prospects of the \"Me Too\" movement in China. She spoke more guardedly about censorship and declared Caixin as free as ever to conduct its signature muckraking reporting. China watchers say the space for independent journalism in the country, already one of the world's most censored news environments, is fast vanishing under President Xi Jinping.\n\"We always think there are stories to do and we don't think, 'maybe this environment should be better,'\" said Hu. \"We've always felt we could do anything we wanted. It was just based on what our priorities are.\"\nHu said she was handing the operation over to her long-time deputy Wang Shuo because of her age — she turns 65 this year. She will occasionally conduct major interviews and remain involved in major editorial decisions as an adviser to Wang, who she hired as a 25-year-old two decades ago.\nKnown for her political savvy, for 30 years Hu has published scoops that uncovered corporate malfeasance and government corruption without repercussions while other journalists fell afoul of authorities and landed in jail. Her publication blew open the government cover-up of the SARS epidemic in 2003 and has questioned countless deals among powerful companies, including state-backed enterprises.\nCaixin's reshuffle comes shortly after Wang Qishan, an official widely seen as Hu's longtime ally, stepped down from the Communist Party's top leadership body, said Willy Lam, a political analyst at the Chinese University in Hong Kong.\n\"Ms. Hu is famous for being supercharged, full of energy,\" Lam said. \"It's difficult to believe she's stepping aside because of age. It has to do with politics.\"\nHu declined to discuss her relationship with Wang and denied that political factors were behind her move. In any case, Wang appears to retain significant influence: he joined a parliamentary delegation this week amid speculation that Xi might soon name him vice president.\nStill, at a time when Xi demands strict ideological discipline across Chinese society, particularly in sensitive industries like media, it remains to be seen if Caixin can continue to push the envelope. A liberal historical journal, Yanhuang Chunqiu, has been shuttered and influential online commentators silenced. Caixin made international headlines in 2016 when it published an interview with a Shanghai professor who criticized China's tightening censorship, and, when censors moved to block the interview, Caixin disclosed the takedown order in an unusual show of defiance.\nPressed nearly two years later, Hu shook her head, saying she doesn't remember the incident.\nEven though she has not directed coverage recently, Hu said she is proud of her staff's reporting on sexual harassment and the #MeToo movement in China. Discussion of the subject has sometimes been censored on Chinese social media or branded as a destabilizing foreign movement. But the story has gained some domestic traction, including reports by state-run outlets like the official Xinhua news agency, which Hu praised.\n\"China also has this kind of problem ... China had the 'women hold up half the sky' revolutionary slogan — but the actual situation, the actual status of women — I think is a very profound issue,\" said Hu, adding that she wanted to do more to promote #MeToo.\nHu said most of her energy will be focused on developing Caixin's business model.\nIn October the company became the first Chinese news company to erect a paywall, a decision Hu made based on the success of leading western newspapers. She declined to discuss subscription or revenue numbers, but acknowledged that online revenues are not yet considered \"substantial.\"\nWei Wuhui, a lecturer of new media at Shanghai Jiaotong University who was asked by Hu to consult on Caixin's paywall model last year, said the increasingly restrictive political atmosphere will affect Caixin. Apart from direct censorship, it will be hurt by the scarcity of young people willing to pursue journalism.\n\"Even students studying journalism don't want to do journalism now,\" Wei said. \"In a few years, the market for investigative journalism may not exist at all.\"\nNever mind the naysayers, said Hu.\nCaixin has more fertile (and safe) areas than ever to investigate in China, she said.\nWang ticked off financial crimes and environmental protection as beats where he plans to beef up staffing.\nA month after she officially relinquished the editor position, Hu still sat in her same corner office, her books and pictures untouched. Wang still works on a long narrow table with other editors in Caixin's main newsroom of 400 people.\nHer advice for Wang was that \"the opportunity is his to take now,\" she said, adding: \"And I'm still here.\""

Prior to that, Jamshed failed to appear before PCB officials when they traveled to England to investigate the cricketer.\n\"No proof has been made public yet so that he (Jamshed) doesn't try to cover his tracks,\" Rizvi said. \"If he is innocent, then shouldn't he or his client have explained why his passport has been confiscated by the National Crime Agency in London? Why is he on bail over there?\"\nJamshed's lawyer Hasan Waraich challenged Rizvi, saying the PCB had no proof against his client.\n\"My client has been defamed nationally and internationally, and the reputation of the country has been damaged by the PCB's actions,\" he said.\n\"They kept saying they had multiple proofs against my client, and I challenged them to present those proofs to the media.

{
"text": [
"HONG KONG (AP) — The weekend launch of a U.S. futures contract for bitcoin reflects widespread acceptance of the virtual currency, especially among investors in Asia, though regulators are wary.\nJapan and South Korea are among the world's top five markets for bitcoin trading, according to sites that track trading volume by currency. Here's a look at the digital currency's rise in some of the region's major markets:\n___\nJAPAN:\nJapan was home to one of the earliest bitcoin communities, but it was started by expatriate residents and kept a low profile. Until a few years ago, bitcoin and other virtual currencies were left alone by regulators.\nFollowing the failure of a bitcoin exchange called Mt. Gox, new laws were enacted to regulate bitcoin and other virtual currencies. Japan is the only major advanced economy with a licensing regime for digital currency intermediaries such as exchanges and payment providers.\nThat has helped make Japan the world's biggest market for speculative virtual currency trading, said Thomas Glucksmann, Hong Kong-based head of marketing for Gatecoin, a virtual currency exchange.\n\"There was very little interest back than at all and now it's a complete 360,\" said Glucksmann. \"It's the biggest market, everybody's talking about it.\"\nBig Japanese banks have gotten involved, investing in bitcoin exchanges or letting them open bank accounts while developing their own related services. Some retailers accept payment in bitcoin.\nMany Japanese are familiar with currency trading since Japan is the world's biggest retail foreign exchange market.\n\"You have people like hairdressers and housewives, people like that investing in crypto, in addition to the bigger players in Japan,\" said Glucksmann, who used to work at a bitcoin exchange in Japan. \"So the regulations have helped to fuel a lot of the legitimacy in the Japanese market.\"\n___\nSOUTH KOREA:\nAbout a year and half ago, South Korea emerged as a very large market for speculative trading activities thanks to investors' high risk appetite and fears of missing out.\nNow, just as the government prepares to regulate virtual currencies, big financial institutions are starting to get in on the action. Shinhan Bank is planning to offer virtual currency services like a bitcoin wallet,\nWorried over risks of speculative trading, in September South Korea banned initial coin offerings, or raising money through bitcoin or other virtual currencies.\nSenior officials at South Korea's financial watchdog have compared speculative trading in bitcoin to a \"Ponzi scheme\" and say they are mulling a ban.\n\"We will not let financial institutions handle transactions related to virtual currencies,\" said Kim Yongbeom, vice chairman at Financial Services Commission, according to a media pool report Monday. \"The price of virtual currencies rises because of the expectation that the next person will buy it at the desired price and this is quite like a Ponzi scheme.\"\nChairman Choi Jong-gu said one option is a total ban on virtual currencies, which would require revising existing legislation or enacting new laws.\nStill, bitcoin sells for a 20-30 percent premium in South Korean compared to other places, and this has spurred offshore trading to take advantage of arbitrage opportunities as South Koreans buy bitcoin overseas and sell them back home.\n___\nCHINA:\nFor a brief time, China dominated bitcoin trading, at one point reportedly accounting for as much as 90 percent of volume. That dried up after Beijing tightened controls.\nThe lively bitcoin market had been set up by bitcoin miners, who had set up data centers taking advantage of China's cheap electricity and hardware to handle the intensive computing processes needed to \"mine\" new bitcoin.\nChina started cracked down on such activities last year just as the price of bitcoin began to surge. In September, regulators ordered all exchanges to shut down, banning initial coin offerings.\nChina's bitcoin exchanges have since migrated overseas or shifted to over-the-counter trading where exchanges match buyers and sellers who then connect through chat apps like Telegram. Payment is made in cash or through bank transfers and the exchange collects a fee.\nSome mainland China exchanges have refocused their efforts on their Hong Kong operations, said Leo Weese, president of the Bitcoin Association of Hong Kong. He estimates there are about 10,000 bitcoin users in the Asian financial hub, including 1,000-2,000 active investors who have significant holdings or work for bitcoin related companies.\nWeese estimates that bitcoin prices are 5-8 percent higher in mainland China than Hong Kong. Speculators who can get around China's strict capital controls to profit from the price difference are driving some trading activity in the city, Weese said.\n\"For them it's a way to make money,\" he said. \"They can buy the bitcoin in Hong Kong cheaply and they can sell them at a premium in China.\"\n___\nSOUTHEAST ASIA:\nBitcoin's rising popularity in Indonesia has alarmed the country's central bank, which said last week it would ban it as a payment method next year.\nBank Indonesia spokesman Agusman Zainal said more a \"assertive rule\" on virtual currencies is planned.\nHe said the bank is concerned bitcoin might be used for fraud or other illegal activities like terrorism, money laundering, prostitution, drug trafficking.\n\"In the context of the payment system, bitcoin is not a valid means of payment,\" Zainal said. \"The reason for prohibiting is in order to implement prudential principles, safeguard business competition, risk control and consumer protection.\"\n____\nAP Writers Niniek Karmini in Jakarta and Youkyung Lee in Seoul contributed to this report."

I am asking in the domain of politics. Tell me about Cheese puffs? Iran says Haley showed fabricated Houthi proof
|
{
"text": [
"NEW YORK (AP) — To the Trump administration, the recovered missile fragments were incontrovertible proof that Iran was illicitly arming Yemen's Houthi rebels. Yet Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif brushed it off Tuesday as little more than cheese puffs.\nDuring a visit to New York, the Iranian diplomat accused U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley of displaying fabricated evidence that missiles lobbed by the Houthis at civilian areas in Saudi Arabia originated in Iran. Though Tehran supports the Shiite rebel group, it firmly denies giving them missiles. But Haley has invited journalists and U.N. Security Council diplomats to inspect missile parts recovered after strikes on Saudi Arabia, bearing what U.S. military officials said were Iranian markings and characteristics.\nZarif, in an Associated Press interview, said that one such logo was from the Standard Institute of Iran, which he said regulates consumer goods — not weapons.\n\"It's a sign of quality,\" Zarif said. \"When people want to buy it, they look at whether it's been tested by the Standard Institute of Iran that your cheese puffs are good, your cheese puffs will not give you a stomach ache.\"\nHe laughed and added, \"I mean, nobody will put the logo of the Standard Institute of Iran on a piece of missile.\"\nZarif also pointed to a truck-size section of a missile that the U.S. said was recovered in Saudi Arabia and was transferred to a military base near Washington, where it was on display behind Haley for a photo-op. Zarif noted that the missile had been supposedly shot down in mid-air.\n\"I'm not saying Ambassador Haley is fabricating, but somebody is fabricating the evidence she is showing,\" Zarif said.\nSome of the fragments Haley presented, if authentic, would seem to implicate Iran's military industry more directly, including some with the logo of Shahid Bakeri Industrial Group, an Iranian defense entity under U.S. sanctions. Haley said others had clear \"Iranian missile fingerprints,\" such as short-range ballistic missiles that lacked large stabilizers — a feature she said only Iran's Qiam missiles have.\n\"Just imagine if this missile had been launched at Dulles Airport or JFK, or the airports in Paris, London or Berlin,\" Haley told reporters late last year. \"That's what we're talking about here.\"\nTehran's denials aside, there's broad agreement among the United Nations, Western countries and the Persian Gulf's Arab leaders that Iran has armed the Houthis with ballistic missiles, even though U.N. Security Council resolutions prohibit it. With U.S. support, a Saudi-led coalition fighting in Yemen's civil war has been bombing the Houthis, who control the capital Sanaa and much of northern Yemen.\nYet Iran's opponents have struggled to provide foolproof evidence to back up their claims, creating an opening for Iran to deny. After Haley's presentations at Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling, some national security experts raised questions, even drawing parallels to Secretary of State Colin Powell's 2003 speech to the U.N. making the case for the Iraq War.\nThe fragments Haley presented were turned over to the U.S. by Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates — two of Iran's fiercest critics — and U.S. military officials had trouble tracing the fragments' chain of custody. Nor could they say when the weapons were transferred to the Houthis or in some cases precisely when they were launched."

I am asking in the domain of politics. Tell me about Coffee shop wants to be Denver's first legal marijuana club
|
{
"text": [
"DENVER (AP) — Colorado's largest city is reviewing the first application from a business seeking to be among the nation's first legal marijuana clubs, a step that comes more than a year after voters approved a bring-your-own pot measure.\nDan Rowland, a spokesman for the Denver department that regulates marijuana businesses, said the city received the application from the Coffee Joint on Friday.\nCo-owners Rita Tsalyuk and Kirill Merkulov plan to charge a $5 entry fee if they're approved for the license. Customers could use edible pot products or vaporizing pens inside, and the shop would sell food, host events and provide free coffee or tea, she said.\nDenver voters approved the clubs in a 2016 ballot measure, but it took nine months for the city to start accepting applications. Advocates have complained that state restrictions preventing pot use at any business with a liquor license and the city's own rules unfairly limited potential locations for the clubs.\nFor instance, the city required pot clubs to be twice as far from schools and anywhere else children gather as liquor stores.\nCustomers buying marijuana products often ask where they are allowed to legally use it, and employees have few answers for tourists staying in hotels that ban marijuana use, Tsalyuk said.\nColorado law doesn't address pot clubs. In some cities, they are tolerated, while others operate secretly.\nOther states with legal marijuana are at a standstill for developing rules governing places to consume pot products, including Alaska, where state regulators have delayed discussion of rules for retail shops until spring.\nIt could be months before Denver residents and tourists would be allowed to legally vape or eat pot products at the Coffee Joint. The city said it has just started to review the application and a public hearing will probably be scheduled within two to three months.\nIn the meantime, Tsalyuk and Merkulov want to open their business before the end of the year as a traditional coffee shop. For their 1,850-square-foot space, they plan to convert a garage to a space for \"vape and paint\" events, open a smaller room for private events and put in comfortable furniture.\n\"We want to give a better name to the cannabis industry and be good for residents, too,\" Tsalyuk said.\nThe proposal has the backing of a local neighborhood association, which submitted a letter of support to the city. Applicants have to show community support for their proposal as part of the licensing process.\nAubrey Lavizzo, a member of the La Alma Lincoln Park Neighborhood Association, said the club backers attended two of their meetings and invited members to tour the dispensary.\n\"They've shown us that they really want to be good neighbors,\" said Lavizzo, a veterinarian who has had a clinic in the neighborhood for over 30 years.\nMerkulov said they are aware of the national and global spotlight on the industry.\n\"It's a new apex,\" he said. \"We hope to prove this can be managed well and be safe.\"\n___\nAssociated Press writer Colleen Slevin contributed to this report."

"CAIRO (AP) — Yemen's official news agency says the Shiite rebels have killed at least 20 people and detained dozens across the country's north since killing their top ally, former President Ali Abdullah Saleh.\nThe rebels known as Houthis appear to be escalating their crackdown on any possible sign of rebellion among their one-time allies from Saleh's party, the General People's Congress. They are also shutting down the internet and tightening an already existing media blackout.\nAccording to SABA, the official news agency now under control of the internationally-recognized government, the Houthis also blew up 20 houses in the northern province of Hajja and replaced the province's governor who was a onetime Saleh associate.\nThe agency reported on Monday that the Houthis also arrested 49 people in Mahwet, another northern province in Yemen."

"text": [
"SAN ANTONIO (AP) — After their recent struggles offensively, the Spurs welcomed the chance to match baskets with the Denver Nuggets and play at a fast pace.\nEven if it led to a few anxious seconds.\nLaMarcus Aldridge scored 30 points and San Antonio escaped with a 106-104 victory over Denver on Tuesday night.\n\"That young team has come leaps and bounds,\" Spurs coach Gregg Popovich said. \"Mike (Malone, Nuggets coach) does a great job with them. So, it's a good win for us.\"\nSan Antonio matched a season high with 33 assists while shooting 50 percent from the field.\nIt was a welcome change for San Antonio, which was in an offensive rut in its two previous games of a five-game homestand.\nThe Spurs scored 60 points in the first half against the Nuggets after averaging just 40 against Philadelphia and Sacramento, including a season-low 31 against the 76ers on Friday.\n\"That's definitely the Spurs way,\" San Antonio point guard Dejounte Murray said. \"Sharing the ball, playing defense and just playing together. That's what we did and we came out with a good win.\"\nSan Antonio had four players in double figures, including 18 points each from Kyle Anderson and Pau Gasol. Anderson set a career scoring high while shooting 9 for 12 from the field.\nThe Nuggets were able to match the Spurs' production despite playing the second night of a back-to-back after losing at home to Boston 111-110.\nEvery Denver starter scored in double figures with Jamal Murray leading the way with 18 points and Gary Harris adding 17.\nSan Antonio had to battle to win its 11th straight at home over Denver. There were 18 lead changes and the Nuggets came within inches of a game-winning 19th.\nJamal Murray's 3-pointer with 31.6 seconds remaining pulled Denver within 106-104. After San Antonio guard Danny Green missed a 3-pointer, the Nuggets raced down the floor and furiously passed the ball three times to set up Will Barton for a 25-foot 3-pointer that rattled in and out of the rim.\n\"I just couldn't believe that the opportunities they penetrated, they didn't even look at the 2,\" Gasol said. \"They were trying to set up someone for the 3. They had a great look.\"\nThe Nuggets wanted the win.\n\"It was great ball movement,\" Denver forward Darrell Arthur said. \"We used the clock and we got the shot we wanted to get. It just didn't fall.\"\nThe Nuggets finished 10 for 23 on 3-pointers while shooting 47 percent from the field while San Antonio shot 50 percent.\nDenver made their first five three-pointers in taking a 17-12 lead, but the Spurs responded by making their first three 3s. It set the tone for a back-and-forth, high-scoring duel.\n\"Well, I was watching them last night and figured they'd be a little tired tonight, but they came out hitting,\" Anderson said. \"So, hats off to them. They were able to come in and make shots, but we knew them. We know they're a good team, so we just had to buckle down and get the win somehow.\"\nTIP-INS\nNuggets: Mason Plumlee did not play after straining his right calf against Boston on Monday night. Plumlee remained in Denver for an MRI while the team flew to San Antonio. Malone said Plumlee is \"going to be out for a little while.\" . Wilson Chandler was available to play but did not enter the game after being listed as probable with an illness.\nSpurs: Aldridge has scored 20-plus points in 33 of 50 games this season. His previous best for 20-point games was 31 in 74 games during his inaugural season with the Spurs in 2016. . Aldridge was assessed his third technical foul this season with 4:30 remaining in the third quarter after arguing about a non-call against Denver's defense. Aldridge has 18 career technical fouls but only one ejection. . Anderson established a career high with 363 points. His previous season's best was 350 points in 2016.\nOLDER GETTING BETTER\nManu Ginobili joined Sacramento's Vince Carter as the only 40-and-older players with 40 3-pointers in a season.\nGinobili finished 3 for 6 on 3s while scoring 14 points, including six in 31 seconds in the first quarter. After sinking a free throw after being fouled on a reverse layup, he drained the first of his three 3-pointers. Ginobili would later stretch for a low pass and then throw it behind his back to Davis Bertans, who would score on a runner.\nFIRST START\nArthur found out Tuesday morning that he would make his first start of the season.\nThe veteran forward appeared in only seven games this season entering Tuesday, playing a total of 50 minutes. He played 19 minutes against the Spurs, establishing a season high with seven points in the first half and finished with 10 points.\n\"I'm surprised I didn't get as tired as I thought I was going to be today,\" Arthur said.\nUP NEXT\nNuggets: Host Oklahoma City on Thursday night.\nSpurs: Host Houston on Thursday night."

"COLOMBO, Sri Lanka (AP) — An envoy says Maldives will not extend the state of emergency that is due to expire on Wednesday amid criticism of the government over the recent political turmoil.\nMohamed Hussain Shareef, ambassador to neighboring Sri Lanka, said the government \"has no intention of extending\" the emergency when its 30-day period expires, \"barring very unusual circumstances such as widespread violence.\"\nMaldives declared an emergency due to turmoil following a Supreme Court ruling ordering the release of several of the president's jailed political opponents. Under the emergency law, President Yameen Abdul Gayoom had two Supreme Court judges arrested for alleged corruption and the remaining three judges annulled the order to release Yameen's opponents.\nThe emergency regulations gave Maldives' security forces sweeping powers, including to make arrests and search and seize property."

"EVERETT, Wash. (AP) — A man was convicted Wednesday of killing his former neighbors and hiding their bodies in the woods northeast of Seattle after one of them told authorities he was squatting at the house he sold following a devastating landslide.\nA jury found John Reed, 55, guilty of first-degree murder in the death of Patrick Shunn, 45, and second-degree murder in the death Monique Patenaude, 46, and the Daily Herald reported . He faces life in prison.\nProsecutors said Reed killed Patenaude and then fatally shot Shunn several hours later as he arrived home on April 11, 2016, near Oso, a small community that was the site of the nation's worst landslide in 2014.\nReed had an ongoing feud with the couple and threatened to shoot them after they cut brush next to his property in 2013, according to prosecutors. Deputies described Reed as an aggressive neighbor.\nAfter the landslide, Reed sold his property to the county under a flood-mitigation program. Several weeks before Patenaude was killed, she reported that Reed had been illegally squatting, according to charging documents.\nReed testified last week that he shot Patenaude and Shunn in self-defense after the couple confronted him at his former property. He claimed he \"panicked\" and had his brother, Tony Reed, help him bury the couple's bodies and stash the couple's vehicles.\nThe brothers fled to Mexico after the slayings. Mexican authorities arrested John Reed more than two months later.\nTony Reed had already turned himself in and led detectives to the couple's gravesite. He was sentenced to 14 months in jail after pleading guilty to rendering criminal assistance.\nProsecutors decided not to seek the death penalty against John Reed. He also was convicted of unlawful possession of a firearm after a trial that lasted over two weeks in Snohomish County Superior Court.\n___\nInformation from: The Daily Herald, http://www.heraldnet.com"

"PYONGYANG, North Korea (AP) — Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov arrived in North Korea on Thursday for talks with senior officials.\nLavrov's visit comes ahead of a planned summit between President Donald Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un and was seen as an attempt by Moscow to ensure its voice is heard in the North's diplomatic overtures with Washington, Seoul and Beijing.\nAfter his arrival, Lavrov met with North Korean Foreign Minister Ri Yong Ho.\nRussia's Foreign Ministry said in a statement earlier they would discuss bilateral issues as well as the overall situation on the Korean Peninsula. Details of Lavrov's schedule in Pyongyang were not disclosed.\nDespite having a border with the North and relatively cordial relations that President Vladimir Putin has seemed to want to develop further, Russia has so far remained largely on the sidelines as Kim has emerged onto the world stage this year.\nKim has already met twice with China's President Xi Jinping and South Korean President Moon Jae-in. One of Kim's top lieutenants, former intelligence chief Kim Yong Chol, is now in New York to discuss with U.S. officials the agenda for the summit planned in Singapore on or around June 12."

"TAIPEI (Taiwan News) -- The Shih Hsin University (SHU) student who slashed the throat of his female classmate yesterday in Taipei, after she rejected his romantic advances, had stalked the woman for five years, and some excerpts his harassment of her on Facebook and the mobile messaging app LINE have been reveled to the public, reported UDN.\nIt has been learned that the 21-year-old man, a third year English major at SHU surnamed Chen (陳), has pursued the woman, now a 19-year-old second year Business student surnamed Shih (石), since her first year in high school. Despite the fact that she always rejected his romantic overtures, he this year transferred from National Taipei University of Technology, where he was a fourth year student, to SHU, even though it meant he would have to lose a year and become a third year student again.\nShih had recently become fed up with Chen's stalking behavior and on Facebook posted a message directed at him saying \"Do not think I don't dare call the police.\" Last week, Shih also went to the Banqiao Police Station to report his behavior. However, Chen did not seem to be on the radar of SHU authorities, who said that Chen was not on the list of students receiving psychological counseling.\nYesterday (Dec. 12) at 10 a.m., as Shih was headed to class, Chen approached her and after she yet again tried to brush him off, he grabbed a fruit knife he had concealed and started to slash her with it. During the assault, she sustained lacerations to her head, ears, and suffered a 3 cm gash on her right neck. Before Chen could continue the assault, he was subdued by a teacher and assistant teacher.\nMeanwhile, Shih was quickly rushed to Wanfang Hospital where her wounds were not deemed life-threatening, and she was sent home to recuperate.\nChen had been using every method to harass Shih, inlucing Facebook, constant phone calls and LINE. In each method of communication, he would say that we wanted to apologize to Shih in person for his behavior, to which she would respond by saying that she did not wish to discuss the matter further, with each subsequent attempt at apologizing only irritating her further.\nBefore unfriending Chen on Facebook friend last month Shih wrote, \"We are just strangers, you don't owe me any apologies, let alone talk about forgiveness... even if all the men in the world died, and you were the last one, I still would not like you. I am not a swan but you are a toad, a toad that wants to eat swan meat.\"\nThe following are a series of exchanges between Chen and Shih on LINE dated Mar. 15:"

"PARIS (AP) — Angers signed Arsenal midfielder Jeff Reine-Adelaide on loan until the end of the season as the French transfer window drew to a close Wednesday.\nThe 20-year-old Adelaide was widely tipped to succeed at Arsenal after winning the Under-17 European championship with France in 2015 and being named in the team of the tournament. The versatile midfielder joined Arsenal the same year from French side Lens, but has made only eight appearances for Arsene Wenger's side.\nAngers, which is in 16th place in the first division, also loaned striker Enzo Crivelli to 13th-place Caen with an option to buy him at the end of the season.\nFormer France midfielder Clement Grenier, once highly-rated, left seven-time French champion Lyon to join Guingamp on an 18-month deal as his injury-plagued career took another turn.\nThe 27-year-old Grenier, a skillful free kick specialist, made five appearances for France but could never get his career fully off the ground due to a series of niggling injuries. He joins Guingamp after making more than 150 appearances for Lyon and six on loan to Italian side Roma in the second half of last season.\nLyon signed right back Leo Dubois from Nantes on a four-year contract, but let him continue the rest of the season with Nantes. No transfer fee was given but the 23-year-old Dubois was out of contract with Nantes in June.\nLyon's bitter local rival Saint-Etienne was busier, selling central defender Florentin Pogba — brother of Manchester United star midfielder Paul Pogba — to Turkish first division side Genclerbirligi on an 18-month deal.\nSaint-Etienne also took back Moroccan forward Oussama Tannane after loaning him to Spanish side Las Palmas."

Three helicopters and several mountain aid groups were involved in the operation, the Austrian news agency APA reported.\nLocal media reported that it would have taken too long to repair the broken chair lift, so authorities decided to start evacuating the skiers.\nAuthorities informed the stuck riders with loud speakers in several languages that they would rescue them. Members of rescue team then climbed up to the chairs from below and brought some of the people down with ropes. Others were lifted up onto helicopters.\nThe stopped chairs were 7-10 meters (23-33 feet) above the ground. The weather was comparatively mild, so no one suffered any ill-effects from cold."

I am asking in the domain of business. Tell me about Clues scarce after half brother of N. Korean leader killed
|
{
"text": [
"KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia (AP) — News of the apparent assassination of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un's half brother rippled across Asia on Wednesday as Malaysian investigators scoured airport surveillance video for clues about two female suspects and rival South Korea offered up a single, shaky motive: paranoia.\nKim Jong Nam, 46, was targeted Monday at the budget terminal of Kuala Lumpur International Airport, said a senior Malaysian government official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because the case involves sensitive diplomacy.\nKim, who died on the way to a hospital, told medical workers that he had been attacked with a chemical spray, the official said.\nMalaysian officials have provided few other details about why they believe Kim died in a targeted killing. Police said an autopsy was planned to determine the cause of death.\nSince taking power in late 2011, Kim Jong Un has executed or purged a slew of high-level government officials in what the South Korean government has described as a \"reign of terror.\"\nSouth Korea's spy service said Wednesday that North Korea had been trying for five years to kill Kim. But the National Intelligence Service did not definitively say that North Korea was behind the killing, just that it was presumed to be a North Korean operation, according to lawmakers who briefed reporters about the closed door meeting with the spy officials.\nThe NIS cited Kim Jong Un's alleged \"paranoia\" about his half brother. Still, the agency has a history of botching intelligence on North Korea and has long sought to portray the country's leaders as mentally unstable.\nMultiple South Korean media reports, citing unidentified sources, said Kim Jong Nam was killed at the airport by two women believed to be North Korean agents. They fled in a taxi and were being sought by Malaysian police, the reports said.\nPolice were searching for clues in the closed circuit television footage from the airport, said Selangor police chief Abdul Samah Mat. The airport is in Selangor, near Kuala Lumpur.\nAccording to the Malaysian government official, Kim Jong Nam was in a shopping concourse and had not yet gone through security for a planned flight to Macau when the incident occurred.\nKim was estranged from his half brother, the North Korean leader. Although he had been originally tipped by some outsiders as a possible successor to his late dictator father, Kim Jong Il, others thought that was unlikely because he lived outside the country, including recently in Macau, Singapore and Malaysia.\nHe reportedly fell further out of favor when he was caught trying to enter Japan on a false passport in 2001, saying he wanted to visit Tokyo Disneyland.\nA Malaysian police statement confirmed the death of a 46-year-old North Korean man whom it identified from his travel document as Kim Chol, born in Pyongyang on June 10, 1970.\nKen Gause, who is with the CNA think tank in Washington and has studied North Korea's leadership for 30 years, said Kim Chol was a name that Kim Jong Nam had traveled under. He is believed to have been born May 10, 1971.\nWhile the most likely explanation for the killing was that Kim Jong Un was removing a potential challenger to North Korean leadership within his own family, he could also be sending a warning to North Korean officials to demonstrate the reach of the regime. It follows the defection last year of a senior diplomat from the North Korean Embassy in London who has spoken of his despair at Kim's purges.\nMark Tokola, vice president of the Korea Economic Institute in Washington and a former deputy chief of mission at the U.S. Embassy in Seoul, said it would be surprising if Kim Jong Nam was not killed on the orders of his half brother, given that North Korean agents have reportedly tried to assassinate Kim Jong Nam in the past.\n\"It seems probable that the motivation for the murder was a continuing sense of paranoia on the part of Kim Jong Un,\" Tokola wrote in a commentary Tuesday. Although there was scant evidence that Kim Jong Nam was plotting against the North Korean leader, he provided an alternative for North Koreans who would want to depose his half brother.\nAmong Kim Jong Un's executions and purgings, the most spectacular was the 2013 execution of his uncle, Jang Song Thaek, once considered the country's second-most powerful man, for what the North alleged was treason.\nGause said Kim Jong Nam had been forthright that he did not have political ambitions, although he was publicly critical of the North Korean regime and his half brother's legitimacy in the past.\nKim Jong Nam had been less outspoken since 2011, when North Korean assassins reportedly tried to shoot him in Macau, Gause said, though the details of the attempted killing are murky. South Korea also reportedly jailed a North Korean spy in 2012 who admitted to trying to organize a hit-and-run accident targeting Kim Jong Nam in China in 2010.\nDespite the attempts on his life, Kim Jong Nam had reportedly traveled to North Korea since then, so it was assumed he was no longer under threat. Kim Jong Nam may have become more vulnerable, as his defender in the North Korean hierarchy, Kim Kyong Hui — Kim Jong Un's aunt and the wife of his executed uncle — appears to have fallen from favor or died. She has not been seen in public for more than three years, Gause said.\nKim Jong Il had at least three sons with two women, as well as a daughter by a third. Kim Jong Nam was the eldest, followed by Kim Jong Chul, who is a few years older than Kim Jong Un and is known as a playboy who reportedly attended Eric Clapton concerts in London in 2015. It's unclear what positon he has in the North Korean government.\nA younger sister, Kim Yo Jong, was named a member of the Workers' Party of Korea's Central Committee during a North Korean party congress last May. She has a position in a propaganda and agitation department and is known as Kim Jong Un's gatekeeper, Gause said.\n___\nAssociated Press writers Hyung-jin Kim in Seoul, South Korea, and Matthew Pennington in Washington, D.C., contributed to this report."

I am asking in the domain of politics. Tell me about Austrian chancellor seeks to ban neo-Nazi fraternity
|
{
"text": [
"BERLIN (AP) — Austrian Chancellor Sebastian Kurz says he's opening proceedings to have a student fraternity shut down for promoting neo-Nazi ideals.\nThe APA news agency reported Wednesday that Kurz told reporters he'd agreed with Interior Minister Herbert Kickl to try to shut down the small Germania fraternity after Austrian media reported its songbook contained neo-Nazi lyrics.\nThe report revealing the songbook lyrics focused on Freedom Party state lawmaker Udo Landbauer, who served on Germania's board. He said he's never heard the songs sung.\nStill, Kurz said there should be political consequences, but that was for the Freedom Party to decide.\nThe Freedom Party, which was led by former Nazis in the postwar period but has distanced itself from that past, is the junior partner in Kurz's new national coalition government."

I am asking in the domain of sports. Tell me about PTC Explores the Use of Augmented Reality Technology for Autism
|
{
"text": [
"NEEDHAM, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Apr 24, 2018--PTC (NASDAQ: PTC) today announced its collaboration with Boston Children’s Hospital, the number one pediatric hospital in the United States, to explore the use of augmented reality (AR) to help children with autism and related disorders communicate and learn more effectively.\nThis press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20180424005921/en/\nPTC explores the use of augmented reality in early intervention for children with autism with Dr. Howard Shane of Boston Children's Hospital and professor at Harvard Medical School. (Photo: Business Wire)\nApril is National Autism Awareness Month, which promotes autism awareness, acceptance, and inclusion for the growing number of children with autism in the United States. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the latest estimate is that 1 in 88 children have some form of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) – a 78 percent increase in comparison to a decade ago.\nDr. Howard Shane, the Director of the Center for Communication Enhancement at Boston Children’s Hospital and Associate Professor of Otology and Laryngology at Harvard Medical School, is at the forefront of using technology and visual supports to improve communication and learning for children on the autism spectrum. Children with autism often have difficulty understanding written or spoken language, but are extremely interested in electronic screen media. It is hoped that augmented reality may be used to help children with autism understand tasks and the world more fully, by helping to bridge the physical and digital worlds by overlaying an image onto a physical environment. Accordingly, the visual nature of augmented reality makes it a promising breakthrough technology to aid in the treatment of autism.\n“The intersection of healthcare and technology is only beginning, and we are excited that PTC, a global leader in IoT and AR technology, is working with us to explore different use cases. Augmented reality addresses two of the biggest challenges facing a child with autism: communication and attention,” said Dr. Howard Shane. “With AR, a child with autism could ‘see’ a cup become a spaceship and engage in pretend play, or ‘see’ the steps to brush their teeth right in the context of their own physical environment. Simple tasks that are challenging for those with ASD can be shown and communicated with AR in a way that is more meaningful to them.”\nA team of PTC employees volunteered countless hours to research and understand autism and the requirements for an effective AR solution. Once the team understood how to best develop applications for an autistic child, they quickly reached a project milestone by completing a prototype solution. In the next phase, an app, created for children with autism and a developmental age of three to five years old, will be clinically tested and evaluated for continued improvement. Dr. Shane will discuss the project in more detail for media and analysts in a session at the upcoming LiveWorx conference held in Boston on June 17-20 th.\n“The immediate and overwhelming interest at PTC to volunteer and participate in this project shows the far-reaching impact of autism and the need to learn and do more,” said Don Busiek, senior vice president, corporate strategy, PTC. “Traditionally, PTC works with manufacturers and industrial enterprise companies, but we saw a unique opportunity for AR technology to make a real difference and improve lives. This project only scratches the surface of the potential uses for AR, and we are excited to support Boston Children’s Hospital in its effort to leverage technology to transform the treatment of autism spectrum disorders.”\nTo request a media pass to LiveWorx, please contact [email protected].\nAdditional Resources\nLiveWorx Harvard Business Review: “Why Every Organization Needs an AR Strategy,” authored by PTC CEO Jim Heppelmann and Harvard Professor Michael Porter\nAbout Howard Shane Dr. Shane received his PhD from Syracuse University and completed a Doctoral Fellowship at Mayo Clinic. He is the Director of the Center for Communication Enhancement and the Autism Language Program at Boston Children’s Hospital. He has designed more than a dozen computer applications used widely by persons with disabilities and holds two US Patents. Dr. Shane has received Honors of the Association Distinction and is a Fellow of the American Speech and Hearing Association. He is the recipient of the Goldenson Award for Innovations in Technology from United Cerebral Palsy Association and author of numerous papers and chapters on severe speech impairment, lectured throughout the world on the topic, and produced numerous computer innovations enjoyed by persons with complex communication disorders.\nAbout PTC (NASDAQ: PTC) PTC helps companies around the world reinvent the way they design, manufacture, operate, and service things in and for a smart, connected world.

"text": [
"WASHINGTON (AP) — The Trump administration is pushing back on claims that President Donald Trump's travel ban is soon set to expire.\nThe White House released a memorandum Wednesday declaring that the effective date of the president's executive order banning travelers from six Muslim-majority countries \"is delayed or tolled\" until all relevant court injunctions \"are lifted or stayed.\"\nSome critics of the travel ban have said that the policy's 90-day halt to visitors from Iran, Yemen, Somalia, Sudan, Syria and Libya is due to expire in mid-June, even though the ban itself has never taken effect.\nThe memorandum instructs the secretary of state, the attorney general, the secretary of homeland security, and the director of national intelligence to implement the ban 72 hours after all applicable court injunctions are lifted or stayed."

I am asking in the domain of business. Tell me about Abused California sibling went to college, didn't seek help
|
{
"text": [
"RIVERSIDE, Calif. (AP) — The community college student with a page-boy haircut was quiet, never drew attention to himself and earned A's semester after semester.\nDespite ample opportunities, he apparently never divulged the sickening truth that his home was a veritable torture chamber.\nAuthorities say the student, now about 26, was the eldest male among 13 siblings who were held captive in their California home by their parents, David and Louise Turpin.\nThe couple starved all but their 2-year-old daughter for years and sometimes chained their children to beds for months at a time without letting them use the toilet, prosecutors said.\nHowever, Louise Turpin regularly drove her oldest son to classes at the nearby Menifee campus of Mt. San Jacinto College and waited outside the classroom for him.\nHe was on the president's honor roll in fall 2015 and spring 2016, college spokeswoman Karin Marriott said.\nA transcript obtained by ABC News showed he attended classes from 2014 until at least 2016 and took up to 15 credits a semester. He earned A's in many classes, including algebra, guitar, public speaking, English fundamentals and freshman composition.\nA classmate, Marci Duncker, said he was \"always quiet and alone\" when they attended classes. She tried to say hello to him a few times but he just looked at her and never responded.\n\"It was one of the most sad faces I'd seen in years,\" Duncker said.\nThe boy was usually one of the last people to leave class, she said.\nNone of the names of the abused siblings have been released by authorities and all were taken to hospitals when they were freed two weeks ago from the home in Perris, about 70 miles (113 kilometers) southeast of Los Angeles.\nAuthorities say the abuse was so long-running their growth was stunted.\nDespite near-daily interactions with others outside the home, there's no indication the oldest son ever sought to draw attention to what was happening at home. Gale Kelley, a trainer for the International Association of Trauma Professionals, said that reluctance is understandable.\n\"They were born into this. This was normal for them. Some of them may not even realize they've been abused,\" she said. \"These children have been living in isolation so they only know what they know.\"\nAbusers often tell children they shouldn't talk about what happens at home or that they deserve to be treated that way, and that may have made it difficult for them to escape, she said.\n\"We don't know what kind of duress they were under as far as threats,\" Kelley said. \"They're still seeing the world through the eyes of a scared little kid who is in constant danger.\"\nThe case has drawn international attention and compassion for the children.\nThe younger ones were home-schooled and there's no evidence the other older children were educated outside the home, except for the oldest girl — now 29 — who had attended kindergarten to third grade in a public school in Texas.\nSheriff's deputies rescued the children on Jan. 14 after the Turpins' 17-year-old daughter climbed out a window and called 911.\nThe house reeked of human waste and evidence of starvation was obvious, with the oldest sibling weighing only 82 pounds, Riverside County District Attorney Mike Hestrin said.\nThe parents were arrested and pleaded not guilty to torture and other charges.\nThe siblings, seven adults and six children, will likely need years of therapy, psychological experts said, adding that if possible it would be best to keep them together for now.\n\"They're going to have some developmental delays, no question,\" said Russell Rice, a family therapist and executive director of a California residential treatment program for teenagers in Redlands. \"Their brains are going to be as stunted if not more than their physical development.\"\nRice said more independent options exist, for example, a residential complex with a case manager on site to assist with money management or other programs. But he said that could be overwhelming for people who have been sheltered from the outside world.\n\"They don't even know how to shop, probably, and the concept of money,\" he said. \"They won't be living on their own. They'll be highly supervised for quite some time.\"\nThe repeated exposure to traumatic events could make them skittish when they are out in public.\n\"The children have been in constant crisis mode, constant danger, and so that switch gets turned and it is always on,\" Kelley said. \"They're expecting to see trauma everywhere and in everybody.\"\n___\nBalsamo reported from Los Angeles."

"text": [
"PHOENIX (AP) — A former Arizona lawmaker who became the first kicked out of a state Legislature since the #MeToo movement began because of a lengthy pattern of sexual misconduct is running for office again.\nDon Shooter, a Republican expelled from the Arizona House in February, said he filed around 900 signatures Wednesday to seek the GOP nomination for a state Senate seat in the same southern Arizona district he used to serve.\nHe wouldn't comment on the circumstances surrounding his expulsion, which came as lawmakers of both parties faced a national reckoning over sexual misconduct that began last fall.\nPoliticians accused of impropriety have resigned, been stripped of leadership posts and faced other repercussions. A Democratic state representative in Colorado also was expelled this year.\nSitting in the lobby of the Arizona secretary of state's office waiting to file his signatures, Shooter said \"Let's dance.\"\nHe said he wants to talk about policy issues, such as the water needs of the agricultural industry and public education. Arizona teachers launched an unprecedented statewide strike this year over a lack of education funding.\n\"That's the only thing I miss about being away from here, was the ability to solve problems,\" Shooter said.\nShooter was elected to the Senate in 2010 and moved to the House in 2017. The lawmaker was known as a politically incorrect jokester who threw booze-fueled parties in his office on the last day of legislative sessions.\nA female lawmaker, Rep. Michelle Ugenti-Rita, accused him in November of propositioning her for sex and repeatedly commenting on her breasts. House Speaker J.D. Mesnard ordered an investigation after Shooter accused Ugenti-Rita of having an inappropriate relationship with a staffer, but she was cleared.\nOther women soon came forward to accuse Shooter of inappropriate sexual comments or actions.\nShooter eventually apologized for what he called his \"jarring, insensitive and demeaning\" comments but argued that he never sought to touch anyone or have a sexual relationship with them.\nAn investigative report released prior to his expulsion found he engaged in \"repeated pervasive conduct (that) created a hostile work environment for his colleagues and those with business before the Legislature.\"\nIn mid-April, Shooter filed a claim — a precursor to a lawsuit — saying he was targeted by the governor's office because of his efforts to expose widespread fraud in the state procurement system. It accused also Mesnard of changing House rules and policies on harassment to remove Shooter from his committee chair post and ultimately to force the expulsion vote.\nTo get on the November ballot, Shooter will have to win the GOP primary. Incumbent state Sen. Sine Kerr, a dairy farmer who was appointed to fill the seat, has filed signatures along with Brent Backus, a conservative who owns a consulting business.\nDemocrat Michelle Harris, who served in the Air Force for 21 years, also is running for the seat.\n___\nAssociated Press writer Bob Christie contributed to this report."

I am asking in the domain of sports. Tell me about For GOP, a dimmed zeal for investigations in Trump era
|
{
"text": [
"WASHINGTON (AP) — The Republicans' ardor for investigations and oversight, on display throughout the Obama administration, has cooled off considerably with Donald Trump in the White House.\nEach day seems to bring a new headache or near-crisis from Trump, the latest being the departure of his national security adviser under questionable circumstances involving Russia.\nYet if there is a line too far, at which point Republicans will feel duty-bound to call for an independent investigation of their president or his administration, Trump hasn't crossed it yet.\nDemocrats are clamoring for a full-scale probe of the resignation of National Security Adviser Michael Flynn, including demanding to know what Trump knew, and when, about Flynn's pre-inauguration conversations with a Russian ambassador about U.S. sanctions. White House press secretary Sean Spicer disclosed that Trump was told in late January that Flynn had misled Vice President Mike Pence about those conversations.\nRather than go along with Democrats' call for an independent outside investigation, Senate Republicans insisted Tuesday that the Intelligence Committee could look at the circumstances as part of an existing probe into Russia's interference in the presidential election.\n\"The Intelligence Committee is already looking at Russian involvement in our election and they have broad jurisdiction over the intel community writ large and they can look at whatever they choose to,\" said Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., adding that \"it's highly likely they'd want to take a look at this episode as well.\"\nThe intelligence panel's chairman, Sen. Richard Burr of North Carolina, told reporters that \"aggressive\" oversight would continue \"privately. We don't do that in public.\"\nHouse Republicans were even less interested, with some shrugging off Democrats' calls for an investigation entirely. Rep. Devin Nunes of California, chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, said that the \"real crime\" is how Flynn's phone conversations were leaked, echoing a complaint Trump himself made over Twitter.\n\"I think the situation has taken care of itself\" in light of Flynn's resignation, House Oversight Committee Chairman Jason Chaffetz, R-Utah, told reporters. That's a far different stance toward potential wrongdoing by the executive branch than Chaffetz took last year, when House Republicans issued more than 70 letters and subpoenas aimed at investigating Democrat Hillary Clinton over a period of less than three months after the FBI announced criminal charges weren't warranted related to her use of a private email server as secretary of state.\nChaffetz did turn his attention to a different Trump administration matter later Tuesday, sending a letter to the White House seeking information about Trump's discussion of a North Korea missile launch while dining al fresco with the Japanese prime minister at a resort in Florida.\nSen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., went so far as to counsel publicly against spending too much time investigating the White House, saying that doing so could only be counterproductive at a moment when the GOP faces a daunting legislative agenda on Capitol Hill.\n\"I just don't think it's useful to be doing investigation after investigation, particularly of your own party,\" Paul said in an appearance on Fox News Radio's \"Kilmeade and Friends.\" ''We'll never even get started with doing the things we need to do like repealing Obamacare if we're spending our whole time having Republicans investigate Republicans. I think it makes no sense.\"\nThe relatively hands-off stance of the GOP toward the Trump White House angers Democrats, who are powerless to do much except fume from the minority in both chambers of Congress.\n\"Do you hear the silence? This is the sound of House Republicans conducting no oversight of President Trump. Zero,\" Rep. Elijah Cummings of Maryland, top Democrat on the Oversight Committee, complained at a news conference Tuesday. \"That is what it sounds like when they abdicate their duty under the Constitution. We've been asking for months for basic oversight.\"\nThe GOP's lack of enthusiasm about investigating the Trump White House comes as Capitol Hill Republicans struggle to come to terms with a new administration that has been engulfed in upheaval after upheaval. Republicans are trying to focus on their agenda despite the distractions. And for now, they appear to have concluded, going easy on Trump is the best way to achieve their goals, including confirming a Supreme Court justice and passing a new health care law and other legislation they want the president to sign.\n\"We know full well that there are issues that are going to come up on a daily basis that we're going to get asked about and have to respond to,\" said Sen. John Thune of South Dakota, the No. 3 Senate Republican, \"but we're interested in repealing and replacing Obamacare, reforming the tax code, reducing the regulatory burden on businesses, confirming a Supreme Court justice, getting these Cabinet nominees through — that's what our agenda is right now.\""

I am asking in the domain of tech. Tell me about Blue moon, supermoon, total lunar eclipse rolled into one
|
{
"text": [
"CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) — The moon is providing a rare triple treat this week.\nOn Wednesday, much of the world will get to see not only a blue moon and a supermoon, but also a total lunar eclipse, all rolled into one. There hasn't been a triple lineup like this since 1982 and the next won't occur until 2037.\nThe eclipse will be visible best in the western half of the U.S. and Canada before the moon sets early Wednesday morning, and across the Pacific into Asia as the moon rises Wednesday night into Thursday.\nThe U.S. East Coast will be out of luck; the moon will be setting just as the eclipse gets started. Europe and most of Africa and South America also will pretty much miss the show.\nA blue moon is the second full moon in a month. A supermoon is a particularly close full or new moon, appearing somewhat brighter and bigger. A total lunar eclipse — or blood moon for its reddish tinge — has the moon completely bathed in Earth's shadow.\n\"I'm calling it the Super Bowl of moons,\" lunar scientist Noah Petro said Monday from NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland.\nOthers prefer \"super blue blood moon.\"\nEither way, it's guaranteed to impress, provided the skies are clear.\nThe moon will actually be closest to Earth on Tuesday — just over 223,000 miles (359,000 kilometers). That's about 1,500 miles (2,400 kilometers) farther than the supermoon on Jan. 1. Midway through Wednesday's eclipse, the moon will be even farther away — 223,820 miles (360,200 kilometers) — but still within unofficial supermoon guidelines.\nWhile a supermoon is considered less serious and scientific than an eclipse, it represents a chance to encourage people to start looking at the moon, according to Petro.\n\"I'm a lunar scientist. I love the moon. I want to advocate for the moon,\" he said.\nThrow in a blue moon, and \"that's too good of an opportunity to pass,\" according to Petro.\nAs the sun lines up perfectly with the Earth and then moon for the eclipse, scientists will make observations from a telescope in Hawaii, while also collecting data from NASA's moon-circling Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter, launched in 2009.\nJust like the total solar eclipse in the U.S. last August cooled the Earth's surface, a lunar eclipse cools the moon's surface. It's this abrupt cooling — from the heat of direct sunlight to essentially a deep freeze — that researchers will be studying.\nTotality will last more than an hour.\n\"The moon is one of the most amazing objects in our solar system,\" Petro said. \"It really is the key to understanding the solar system, through interpreting the geology and surface of the moon.\"\nNASA plans to provide a live stream of the moon from telescopes in California and Arizona, beginning at 5:30 a.m. EST.\n___\nOnline:\nNASA: https://eclipse.gsfc.nasa.gov/lunar.html"

"DRAPER, Utah (AP) — Police in Utah investigated an anonymous tip about a man who wanted to kill his ex-girlfriend and himself just before he killed the woman and her son this month in a shooting that also injured two children, according to documents provided Wednesday in response to a public records request from The Associated Press.\nThe tipster called 911 about Jeremy Patterson after getting a message from Patterson saying he had just broken up with his girlfriend and wanted to kill her and himself, according to a report from police in the Salt Lake City suburb of Draper, where Patterson, the shooter, lived.\nThe female tipster told a police dispatcher she wanted to remain anonymous because she said knowing about the situation could put her in danger, the report said.\nA Draper officer investigated the call June 6, the same day Patterson, 32, opened fire on the car his ex-girlfriend Memorez Rackley was riding in, killing her and her 6-year-old son. The shooting happened in the suburb of Sandy, which borders Draper.\nThe officer tried to call the tipster but no one answered the phone number she provided, the report said.\nThe tipster gave Patterson's name but did not provide Rackley's name, it said.\nThe officer then searched for Patterson's name in two police databases, but found several people by the same name and could not determine which one might be related to the call, the documents said. The tipster also did not provide an address for Patterson in the 911 call.\nPolice have said Patterson encountered Rackley later that day and argued with her as she walked her children home from school. A passing motorist with three children in her sports utility vehicle stopped and picked up Rackley and her children to help them.\nBut Patterson followed them in his pickup truck and rammed the SUV off the street, got out and started shooting, police have said. Rackley and her son were killed before Patterson killed himself. Rackley's 11-year-old son and the daughter of the woman driving the SUV were wounded.\nThe shooting came three days after Rackley told Sandy police that Patterson had been relentlessly stalking her and she was afraid for her safety, according to Sandy police documents obtained by the AP in a previous public records request.\nShe told officers she did not want to press charges against Patterson but that she would seek a court protective order for him to stay away from her and her children.\nCourt records in the Salt Lake City area show no indication that she did so before the shooting."

"From a fractured ankle to a thumb sliced on a bottle of bubbly, from broken arm bones to torn knee ligaments, all manner of injuries has interrupted Lindsey Vonn's highly successful skiing career.\nThere was even the time the American was helicoptered off a mountain after a body-battering crash during downhill training at the 2006 Turin Olympics. About 48 hours later, she was on her skis, competing.\nThat's what Vonn does: She gets hurt, gets up and gets back out there.\n\"She's relentless toward her goals. It's not easy to continue to fight like she's done,\" said Vonn's longtime sports physical therapist, Lindsay Winninger. \"With each injury she's had, she's learned something about herself and her body. I believe she's a better athlete for it.\"\nThe 33-year-old Vonn says that her main focus until the Pyeongchang Olympics open Feb. 9 is to stay healthy.\nA look at some of the times she was unable to do that:\nBROKEN RIGHT ARM, November 2016\nHurt during a training run in her home state of Colorado. Needed surgery. The injury led to nerve damage; she couldn't move her fingers initially and taped a ski pole to her right glove when she returned to racing. Vonn said later she worried about whether she would be able to use her hand in a normal way ever again and has called it the \"hardest recovery of my career.\"\nFRACTURES IN LEFT KNEE, February 2016\nCrashed during a World Cup super-G in Andorra. Taken off the mountain in a sled . Competed again the next day, but then went nearly a year without participating in a World Cup race afterward.\nBROKEN LEFT ANKLE, August 2015\nInjured during preseason training camp in New Zealand. Wasn't ready to return at the start of the World Cup season in October, but did compete in late November.\nTORN LIGAMENTS IN RIGHT KNEE, BROKEN BONE IN RIGHT LEG, February 2013\nVonn needed reconstructive surgery after tumbling when she landed in a patch of soft snow during the super-G at the 2013 world championships in Schladming, Austria. She tried to come back but got hurt again in a crash while training in Colorado in November and during a World Cup downhill at Val d'Isere, France, in December, tearing her repaired ACL and requiring another operation on her right knee. Announced in January 2014 she would have to miss the Sochi Olympics.\nCONCUSSION, February 2011\nInjured her head in a fall during World Cup practice in Austria. About a week later, she initially decided to compete — \"skiing in a fog,\" Vonn called it — at the world championships in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Germany, before eventually withdrawing.\nBRUISED RIGHT SHIN, February 2010\nSlammed her right leg in slalom practice 10 days before the Vancouver Olympics started. Initially, could barely walk. Needed painkillers and a Novocaine-like numbing cream; also smeared a semisoft Austrian cheese, topfen, on her leg as a home remedy. Raced in the Winter Games, earning two medals: the first Olympic downhill gold for an American woman, and a bronze in the super-G. But she spun out of control during the giant slalom, breaking her right pinkie.\nBRUISED LEFT FOREARM, December 2009\nCrashed on the first run of a World Cup giant slalom in Lienz, Austria, losing her balance after a sharp turn and falling backward. She wound up not missing a race.\nCUT RIGHT THUMB, February 2009\nSafe to say Vonn's oddest injury came off the slopes during the world championships in Val d'Isere, when she needed surgery after hurting herself with a champagne bottle during a photo op gone awry after winning gold in the downhill. \"I'm not going to be opening champagne bottles any time soon — probably not for the rest of my life,\" Vonn said about a month later. \"That's a mistake you definitely learn from.\"\nHYPER-EXTENDED RIGHT KNEE, BONE BRUISE, February 2007\nPartially tore her right ACL in training. Sat out her last two races at the world championships in Are, Sweden, after winning two silvers earlier. Missed the rest of that World Cup season.\nASSORTED BRUISES AND ACHES, February 2006\nScary fall during downhill training at the Turin Olympics caused a bruised thigh, aching back and sore pelvis. She left the hospital — even trying to grab her belongings and sneak out when the checkout process was taking longer than she wanted — and competed less than 48 hours later. She wound up racing in all four events she'd planned, with a top result of seventh in the super-G. \"It's definitely weird,\" she said back then, \"going from the hospital bed to the start gate.\"\n___\nAP Sports Writer Pat Graham contributed to this report.\n___\nMore AP Olympic coverage: https://wintergames.ap.org/"

I am asking in the domain of politics. Tell me about Europe's rise in temporary work contracts puts lives on hold
|
{
"text": [
"LISBON, Portugal (AP) — Europe's economic recovery is in full swing, and in countries like Portugal the unemployment rate is falling steeply from record highs reached during the recent financial crisis. Just don't tell people like Nuno Mendes that the good times are back.\nThe 40-year-old Portuguese government worker lives from six-month contract to six-month contract, doing the same job every day but never sure of his future, and takes home just 1,200 euros ($1,500) a month. He would like to marry his girlfriend and have children, but he can't afford it. Unlike co-workers on permanent contracts, banks won't give him a mortgage.\n\"Everything in my life is on hold — starting a family, making long-term plans,\" Mendes says. \"It's all very limiting and debilitating.\"\nMany workers across southern Europe are in the same boat as Mendes, trapped in poorly-paid, insecure jobs that are locking them out of a life they once felt entitled to. It's one of the legacies of the eurozone debt crisis, and it's the new normal.\nUnemployment across the 19-country eurozone was at its lowest level in nearly nine years in December, at 8.7 percent, official figures showed Wednesday. The improvement from 9.7 percent a year earlier comes amid a strong economic growth rate of 2.5 percent last year.\nThe brightening figures conceal, however, a darker reality.\nTemporary, or fixed-term, contracts that give workers a short horizon of income security have increasingly become the norm since the Great Recession. The European Commission acknowledged last year that \"the overall trend since 2006 indicates growing use of involuntary fixed-term contracts.\"\nEuropean leaders have in recent times urged governments in southern Europe, where the end of 20th-century dictatorships heralded new democratic powers and powerful trade unions demanding job protection, to make their workforces more flexible. That meant making it cheaper and easier to hire and fire employees.\nRecent legislation has watered down some safeguards. Even so, many businesses remain reluctant to risk open-ended contracts that further down the line could be an unwelcome burden due to severance pay and other legal considerations.\nSuch concerns have given rise to what is termed a dual labor market, seen by analysts as a European scourge. It means that some workers get a healthy pay packet, generous benefits and employment security. Others endure low wages, job insecurity and bleak prospects of promotion.\nThe Spanish government said this month that 2017 was a record year for job creation, with 21.5 million employment contracts signed. The downside: 19.6 million of them were temporary.\nItaly's largest trade union says the number of people with temporary or part-time jobs who are seeking permanent, full-time work grew to a record 4.5 million in the first half of 2017. That compares with nearly 3.1 million in 2007. On top of that, the number of Italians who cannot find full-time work more than doubled from 756,000 in 2007 to 1.8 million in the first half of last year.\nEuropean businesses have partly explained that by a mismatch between the skills workers possess and the skills companies need. A survey published this month by the Association of European Chambers of Commerce and Industry, based on responses from more than 50,000 businesses in 23 countries, found that the mismatch \"is becoming a significant obstacle to growth.\"\nPortugal's jobless rate stood at 7.8 percent in December, the lowest in eight years. It peaked at a record 16.2 percent in 2013, which was a third straight year of recession after the country's 78-billion euro ($97 billion) bailout amid the eurozone's financial crisis. A recovery began the following year.\nBut only 34 percent of employment contracts signed between 2013 and last year were open-ended, according to the Observatory of Crises and Alternatives at Portugal's Coimbra University.\n\"The creation of jobs in Portugal has been spectacular ... but most of them are temporary jobs,\" said Nuno Teles, one of the observatory's researchers.\nHe points to a high turnover of fixed-term contracts. From 2013 to the end of 2017, about 3 million employment contracts were signed, but only about 1 million of them still exist. Some workers, Teles says, have two work contracts in the space of a month.\nPart of the reason is the nature of Portugal's economic recovery. It is largely being powered by the tourism sector, where seasonal work is common, and the construction industry, which is frequently offering contracts valid only for the duration of specific building projects.\nAnother driver of change has been new technology. Working patterns are changing, with an increasing number of people freelancing, working part-time from home and holding jobs for short periods. It suits some.\nIn the case of employees like government worker Mendes, there's an added twist: he isn't a temporary worker, he's a fake temporary worker, and the government is behind the sham.\nMendes, who holds a Masters degree, belongs to a loose national association of such workers called \"precarios do estado\" —literally, \"precarious government workers.\" They are employed by the state on temporary contracts that are renewed every six months or annually. The association is pressing the government to make good on its 2015 promise to formally classify them as the permanent workers they effectively are.\nThe association's website includes numerous stories from those in similar circumstances to Mendes. \"Why can't I set out the course of my and my family's life for the next 3, 4, 5 or 10 years?\" complains one of them, 37-year-old school teacher Antonio Fachada.\nThe issue has become a key battleground for trade unions, but Mendes says he doesn't feel resentful. He sees the government as a victim of the financial crisis, too, because the bailout lenders wouldn't let it hire permanent staff.\nWith the economy surging, Mendes is hopeful his limbo will come to an end soon, though he's learned to roll with the punches.\n\"I've stopped worrying about my future,\" he says with a laugh. \"I can't, because I'd end up having no life.\"\n____\nColleen Barry in Milan and Ciaran Giles in Madrid contributed to this story."

"text": [
"TULSA, Okla. (AP) — Testimony began Monday in the trial of an Oklahoma man charged with first-degree murder and a hate crime in the slaying of his Lebanese neighbor.\nStanley Vernon Majors, 63, is accused in the August 2016 killing of 37-year-old Khalid Jabara. In opening statements to Majors' 12-member jury, prosecutors alleged Majors acted out of jealousy amplified by racist views.\n\"It's about jealousy and hate,\" Assistant District Attorney Becky Johnson said. Johnson said Majors' resentment toward Jabara and the rest of his family became amplified by his dislike of people of color.\nProsecutors say Majors fatally shot Jabara after bombarding him and his family for years with racial epithets, including \"filthy Lebanese\" and \"Moo-slems.\" The Jabaras are Christian.\nMajors' defense attorney, assistant public defender Travis Smith, told jurors that Majors had untreated schizophrenia. Defense attorneys have indicated they will present a defense based on Majors' mental health, although Majors was previously found competent to stand trial.\nThe first witnesses to testify in the case included 911 operators and a neighbor who testified she heard Khalid Jabara being attacked.\nMajors' has pleaded not guilty to the charges. His jury was seated on Friday following a week of jury selection and prosecutors have said his trial could last two weeks."

"OTTAWA, Ontario--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Apr 23, 2018--BioTalent Canada today announced the three finalists for the 2018 MAGNUS Catalyst Award for Top New Hire. The three finalists are:\nThis press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20180423005377/en/\nDavid Ness, Health and Safety Specialist, ERA Environmental Management, Montreal, QC Chelsea Lobson, Community-Based Monitoring Coordinator, Lake Winnipeg Foundation, Winnipeg, MB David Rowbotham, Senior Research Technologist, STEMCELL Technologies, Vancouver, BC\nOver 1,400 new hires have been subsidized by BioTalent Canada programs since 2005. In that time, employer feedback on the contribution of these young workers has been overwhelmingly positive. The annual MAGNUS Catalyst Award was created in 2015 to recognize the employers who invest in young talent and the dedicated young people, hired through wage subsidies.\n“Congratulations to these young professionals who are passionate about biotech and innovating to help their biotech employers achieve success,” says Jacqueline Flinker, CEO of MAGNUS Personnel. “We are extremely proud to be supporting this initiative.”\n“Seeing the passion and initiative in this young biotech talent is inspiring,” says Rob Henderson, President and CEO of BioTalent Canada. “Telling their stories in starting their biotech careers is extremely rewarding as is knowing they are having such a positive impact on their employers.”\nDavid Ness Health and Safety Specialist, ERA Environmental Management David exemplifies the values of ERA and acts as a mentor to help other new hires and team members to the importance of the corporate culture; in fact, his commitment to embracing new challenges and continuous learning has helped other team members to setup and take on projects outside their own comfort zones. David has been a leader and role model regarding new projects the team is working on– his attitude towards failures is that they are learning experiences and are actual learning opportunities. I have found it greatly beneficial to include David on projects because he helps set the tone for all the other team members in times of success and times when we hit road blocks. Instead of letting these moments get us down, David is able to shift our way of thinking to, “How can we solve this problem?” and “What can we learn from this obstacle?”\nChelsea Lobson Community-Based Monitoring Coordinator, Lake Winnipeg Foundation (LWF) Chelsea is an enthusiastic, passionate young scientist who is ready and willing to roll up her sleeves and do whatever task is required of her and under her leadership Lake Winnipeg Community-Based Monitoring Network (LWCBMN) greatly exceeded their 2017 objectives. Chelsea is at the forefront of a growing movement of citizen scientists taking action in their communities. Citizen science networks face multiple challenges. Accessing appropriate lab space and equipment can be costly. The time and expertise required to process collected samples can be overwhelming and unrealistic for volunteers. Chelsea overcame all of these challenges. Working closely with LWF’s nationally recognized science advisors, LWCBMN’s protocols have been designed to be compatible with those of provincial and federal programs, including programs in other countries. As a result, LWCBMN is producing robust, credible data which, in turn, is creating additional partnership opportunities – mostly notably with Agriculture Canada, which has offered the use of its equipment in its Morden, Manitoba-based lab where Chelsea is now processing LWCBMN’s samples.\nDavid Rowbotham Senior Research Technologist, STEMCELL Technologies STEMCELL’s motto is “Scientists helping scientists,” and it is their mission to supply high quality innovative reagents to research labs around the world, facilitating discoveries in the life sciences. David is working on a team that develops tools that will enable prostate and breast cancer researchers to preform cutting edge research, and eventually guide medical oncologists in the treatment of cancer patients. David has a genuine passion for the science underlying the products that STEMCELL is developing, and the level of rigor that he incorporates into his experiments is labourious and impressive. Just when he has thought to have reached his limit on what he can take on, he surprises his supervisor by incorporating additional experiments to increase the quality of his data. The company also has a strong culture of collaboration, and in this regard, David is highly respected by his peers for his professionalism, positive attitude and creative thinking.\nBioTalent Canada and award sponsor MAGNUS Personnel congratulate the finalists and salute the employers for hiring outstanding young talent.\nThe finalists were chosen among the many entries received and evaluated by an independent judging committee. The winner of the 2018 MAGNUS Catalyst Award will be awarded a cash prize of $1,000 and will be announced in early May.\nThanks to our partner and title sponsor\nAbout BioTalent Canada\nBioTalent Canada™ is the HR partner of Canada’s bio-economy.

I am asking in the domain of politics. Tell me about Newest Kennedy in Congress to give Democratic SOTU response
|
{
"text": [
"WASHINGTON (AP) — The newest generation of the Kennedy political dynasty will be introduced to a national audience Tuesday night as he delivers the Democratic response to President Donald Trump's State of the Union.\nRep. Joe Kennedy III, a 37-year-old Massachusetts congressman and grandson of Robert F. Kennedy, says Democrats should focus on the economic worries of working-class voters who bolted the party in the 2016 elections.\nTo drive home the message, Kennedy will deliver his speech at a vocational high school in Fall River, Massachusetts, a gritty former textile hub 55 miles (89 kilometers) south of Boston.\n\"From health care to economic justice to civil rights, the Democratic agenda stands in powerful contrast to President Trump's broken promises to American families,\" Kennedy said in a statement, adding that his speech will be \"guided by a simple belief that equality and economic dignity should be afforded to every American.\"\nKennedy, the red-haired son of former Rep. Joe Kennedy II, D-Mass., was elected to the House in 2012, returning the family to Congress two years after the retirement of Rhode Island Rep. Patrick Kennedy, who is the son of Joe Kennedy III's great-uncle Ted.\nBesides his famous last name, Joe Kennedy III also is among a wave of younger Democrats in a caucus whose three top leaders are all in their 70s.\nA former Peace Corps volunteer, Kennedy was an assistant district attorney in two Massachusetts districts before being elected to Congress. He has focused on economic and social justice in Congress and has advocated on behalf of vocational schools and community colleges and championed issues such as transgender rights and marriage equality.\nTo illustrate that message, Kennedy has invited Staff Sgt. Patricia King, a transgender infantry solider, to represent him at the State of the Union. King, an 18-year Army veteran, has twice been deployed to Afghanistan and has been awarded the Bronze Star.\nHouse Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi called Kennedy \"a relentless fighter for working Americans\" and said he \"profoundly understands the challenges facing hard-working men and women across the country.\"\nMatt Gorman, a spokesman for the campaign arm of House Republicans, could not conceal his glee as he welcomed the latest Kennedy as the voice of Democrats.\n\"Democrats using the multi-millionaire scion of a political dynasty as the face of their party shows they've learned absolutely nothing,\" Gorman said in an email, adding that the only way to give the GOP an easier target would be for Kennedy to make the speech \"live from the Kennedy Compound in Hyannis,\" Massachusetts.\nDemocratic Caucus Chairman Joe Crowley said Kennedy will focus on education and the importance of preparing future generations for jobs while also pointing out \"how Republicans fall short, and certainly the president.\"\nKennedy \"will be talking to the forgotten men and women — the people the president says he is speaking to but since has shown he has little or no regard for,\" said Crowley, D-N.Y.\nThe speech is an opportunity for the three-term lawmaker to \"step out a bit and make his own mark\" in national politics, said Crowley, who recommended Kennedy for the role.\n\"He's young, talented and smart. He's got a great last name, but on his own, he's a wonderful man and that will come through as well,\" Crowley said. \"The sky's the limit for him, frankly.\"\nBefore this speech, Kennedy's best-known moment was a 2017 speech criticizing House Speaker Paul Ryan for defending the GOP effort to repeal former President Barack Obama's health care law as \"an act of mercy.\"\nKennedy called the GOP effort \"an act of malice\" in a late-night speech that was viewed millions of times on social media.\nKennedy's speech will be followed by a Spanish-language response delivered by Elizabeth Guzman, one of the first Latinas elected to the Virginia House of Delegates."

I am asking in the domain of politics. Tell me about UK official to seek access to Cambridge Analytica's servers

"text": [
"LONDON (AP) — Britain's information commissioner plans to apply for a warrant to access the servers of Cambridge Analytica, which allegedly used data mined from Facebook to help Donald Trump win the 2016 presidential election.\nCommissioner Elizabeth Denham said in a statement Monday that she would request the warrant because Cambridge Analytica had been uncooperative with her investigation into whether the company illegally acquired and used Facebook data.\n\"This is a complex and far-reaching investigation for my office and any criminal or civil enforcement actions arising from it will be pursued vigorously,\" she said.\nDenham launched her investigation after weekend reports that Cambridge Analytica improperly used information from more than 50 million Facebook accounts. Facebook has suspended the company from the social network while it investigates the claims.\nFacebook said Monday that it has put its own audit of the claims on hold at the request of the U.K. information commissioner.\nThe New York Times and the U.K.'s Guardian newspaper reported that the U.K.-based company obtained Facebook account data without the users' knowledge and retained it after claiming it had been deleted. Chris Wylie, who once worked for Cambridge Analytica, was quoted as saying the company used the data to build psychological profiles so voters could be targeted with ads and stories.\nCambridge Analytica says the information was acquired from a contractor who was contractually obligated to comply with data-protection laws. None of the data was used in the Trump campaign, the company said.\n\"I'm not accepting their response so therefore I'll be applying to the court for a warrant,\" Denham told Britain's Channel 4. \"We need to get in there, we need to look at the databases, we need to look at the servers and understand how data was processed or deleted by Cambridge Analytica.\"\nThe scandal has also triggered calls for further investigation from the European Union, as well as federal and state officials in the United States.\nThe head of the EU parliament said Monday that the bloc will investigate Facebook's role in the case.\n\"Allegations of misuse of Facebook user data is an unacceptable violation of our citizens' privacy rights,\" Antonio Tajani tweeted. \"The European Parliament will investigate fully, calling digital platforms to account.\"\nU.S. Sen. Ron Wyden of Oregon and Connecticut Attorney General George Jepsen, both Democrats, have sought written responses from Facebook. Massachusetts Attorney General Maura Healey, also a Democrat, promised an investigation.\nU.K. lawmakers have already called on Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg to testify before a parliamentary committee.\n___\nAssociated Press Writers Nick Jessdanun and Barbara Ortutay in New York contributed to this story"

We know our customers are strong, passionate women in all aspects of their lives. Jessie brings to us – and them – her vibrant success and exuberance without effort. Her authentic enthusiasm combined with her astonishing athletic prowess and genuine kindness literally blew us away. She is the new gold standard of celebrity spokesperson.”\nIn a statement, Jessie wrote; “Fabulous jewelry at great values is what Ross-Simons is all about, and I believe in the sincerity of that message. They’ve been around a very long time, and I can sense their passion for what they do – for women of all ages – celebrating beauty, strength and sparkle. I love this association and can’t wait to get started.”\nJim Speltz, President of Ross-Simons added “It would be hard to imagine a better fit or voice for Ross-Simons than Jessie Diggins. We could not be more proud to officially make this announcement and for us to join her team as she joins ours. It’s truly a great day for us.”\nABOUT JESSIE DIGGINS – From Afton, MN, Jessie is a life-long cross country skier who is well on her way to securing her legacy as one of Team USA’s all-time greats.
