Question: Sen. Mike Lee: Americans Don’t Want Obamacare Bailouts

The Republican Congress that was elected to repeal Obamacare is now considering bailing it out. It shouldn’t.
Earlier this month, America’s Health Insurance Plans, the lobbying arm of the health insurance industry, sent a letter to the Republican leadership demanding billions of dollars in new subsidies for Obamacare insurance policies.
The letter did not mention that health insurance companies are already enjoying record high profits without additional taxpayer subsidies.
Unfortunately, the congressional leadership appears committed to giving the insurance companies what they want. The omnibus spending bill set to be released Monday will likely contain a provision that would send Obamacare insurers $10 billion in “reinsurance” payments a year for three years — 2019, 2020, and 2021.
Instead of repealing the Obamacare regulations that have caused premiums to more than double since 2013, Republicans are set to buy off insurance companies to hide the true cost of rising premiums.

While advocates for these insurance subsidies argue that these payments will reduce premiums, it’s essential to understand that they do not reduce premiums in real terms.
There’s no real decrease in costs. They hide part of the premium by shifting it to taxpayers. That’s a bailout.
Don’t think for a second that this would be a one-time $30 billion price tag. Why would a future Congress allow a $10 billion annual bailout to end on a cliff in 2022? Insurers’ lobbyists will be back in 2022 leveraging their control over premiums for the spigot to continue.
What congressional leadership would be agreeing to by including reinsurance bailout funds in this omnibus is a $10 billion annual corporate bailout in perpetuity.

On top of being bad policy, these reinsurance payments will fund abortion unless the Hyde Amendment — a pro-life protection preventing taxpayer funding of abortion coverage — is specifically applied.
Pro-life groups were clear in 2017 that unless the Hyde Amendment is included, any member voting for the reinsurance payments would “not only be voting to sustain what many have called the largest expansion of abortion since Roe v. Wade, but would also be voting to directly appropriate taxpayer dollars for insurance that includes abortion.”
Thus far, none of the bailout proposals have included the Hyde Amendment.
Congressional leadership needs to listen to the voters who sent them to Washington to end Obamacare. In a recent poll, 61 percent of Americans opposed Congress paying health insurance companies to temporarily lower premiums.

What Americans need is real relief from the Obamacare regulations that are already raising the cost of health care. We need to allow the states to run their own health insurance markets again.
Bailing out Obamacare’s fundamental failures only puts the real goal further out of reach.

Question: Trump Administration Extends Deadline For Insurers To Decide On Obamacare Markets

this news article should be represented to find a fitting news title.

The Trump administration is giving insurance companies an extra three weeks to decide whether to offer insurance plans through the Affordable Care Act markets, and how much to charge.
The extension comes as insurance companies wait for President Trump to decide whether he will continue to make payments to insurance companies that are called for under the Affordable Care Act but that some Republicans have opposed.
The payments — known as cost-sharing reduction payments — reimburse insurance companies for discounts on copayments and deductibles that they're required by law to offer to low-income customers. The Congressional Budget Office estimates the payments this year would be about $7 billion.
Trump has said he may end the reimbursements, which he calls "bailouts," and has been leaving insurers to wonder month to month about whether they will receive a check.
A White House spokesman says Trump is "working with his staff and his Cabinet to consider the issues raised by the CSR payments."
The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services says it is offering the extra time so insurance companies can plan ahead in case the government decides to end the payments. In a memo Friday, the agency said many states are now requiring companies to file their rates for 2018 on the assumption that they won't be reimbursed.
Several companies say that without the cost-sharing payments, their rates will see double-digit increases. For example, Blue Cross Blue Shield of North Carolina says ending the payments would push its rates up 14.1 percent.
And Marc Harrison, CEO of Intermountain Healthcare, which covers 173,000 people in Idaho and Utah, says premium increases could be "astonishing."
Still, he says, his company will stick with the Obamacare markets. "These are our patients. We're not going anywhere. We're going to keep trying to figure this out."
The HHS memo says "there have been no changes regarding HHS's ability to make cost-sharing reduction payments to insurers."
But it then says the agency intends to change the ACA's risk adjustment program to compensate for the loss of cost-sharing payments.
The changes are technical and complex, but Timothy Jost, professor emeritus at Washington & Lee University's law school, says in a Health Affairs blog that the memo just deepens the confusion.
"We still do not know if all of this is needed or not — the Trump administration has not made up its mind," he says.
The cost-sharing payments have been at the center of a political battle over the Affordable Care Act since before President Trump took office.
House Republicans opposed to the health law sued then-President Barack Obama, saying the payments were illegal because Congress hadn't appropriated money for them. A judge agreed but allowed the administration to continue making the payments during an appeal.
Now that Trump is in the White House, and Republican efforts to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act have failed, many Republicans are urging the president to continue the payments rather than undermine the health care markets.

Question: Macedonia: 8 million-year-old elephant-like remains found

Paleontologists from Bulgaria and Macedonia are excavating the fossilized remains of a prehistoric elephant believed to pre-date the mammoth, after its bones were discovered accidentally by a man working in a field.
Scientists at the Natural Science Museum of Macedonia and the Natural History Museum of Sofia said Tuesday they began excavating the skeleton in Dolni Disan in central Macedonia last Friday. They estimated the animal would have weighed about 10 tons and have been about 50 years old at the time of its death, roughly 8 million years ago during the Miocene epoch.
Biljana Garevska of the Natural Science Museum in Skopje said the fossil was of one of the elephant’s ancestors which roamed the region at a time when it was covered by African-like savannah.

Question: Multi-million-pound investment at British Steel in Scunthorpe to step up production of revolutionary rails

A multi-million-pound investment is being made at British Steel's Scunthorpe works to allow the company to step up production of a revolutionary rail product.
The manufacturer is investing a seven-figure sum in new plant which will allow it to produce its premium coated Zinoco rails in lengths of up to 108 metres and welded lengths of up to 216 metres.
It follows full approval being given by Network Rail for the ultra-long versions of the Zinoco product, the name of which derives from the words "zinc for no corrosion".
Zinoco is a world-first which can withstand the rigours of being laid in some of the most challenging rail environments, reducing the need for rail replacement programmes in highly corrosive areas such as coastal lines, wet tunnels, level crossings, mineral lines and salt pans.
British Steel designed the product in conjunction with Network Rail and initially delivered it in lengths of 18 metres, before conducting a series of trials with longer lengths.
The reduced number of welds required by longer lengths of rail mean the installation process can be sped up and also gives the rails greater integrity.
Over the last 18 months longer length rails have been installed in tunnels near Bristol and Fife, culminating in Network Rail granting full product approval.
Peter Smith, British Steel's managing director for rail, said: "Zinoco offers superior corrosion protection compared to all current rail coating technologies on the market so we’re delighted Network Rail has given it full product approval up to lengths of 216 metres.
(Image: British Steel)
"We’re the only supplier in the world able to deliver corrosion-protected rail at this long length so this is a great success story, not only for us but for British manufacturing."
Work is already under way on building the new plant to start production of the ultra-long Zinoco rails in Scunthorpe and British Steel is anticipating it will be commissioned this autumn.
Mr Smith said: "This investment underlines our commitment to innovation and the highest levels of product quality and service delivery.
"Network Rail, like other operators, was having to replace rail prematurely due to rapid corrosion in isolated segments of a network.
"We’ve worked closely with them to deliver Zinoco, a world first and a classic example of British Steel partnering with customers to provide a cost-effective solution to the challenges they face."
A Network Rail statement said: "This development will facilitate wider usage of coated rails supporting Network Rail in reducing re-railing activity in a number of key challenging locations in the future. This should ultimately support our aims of reducing the whole life cost of rail in these locations."

South Australia's troubled Whyalla steelworks which was recently bought by a British billionaire has ramped up production in a bid to produce 1.2 million tonnes of steel per year.
The plant which was recently purchased by industrialist Sanjeev Gupta's Liberty OneSteel has exported its first steel slabs to its sister plant in Wales, executive general manager Theuns Victor said on Tuesday.
"These exports will ultimately enable us to increase production, in-turn resulting in greater utilisation of the plant which helps reduce our overall running costs," he said.

Question: Man who sold ammo to Vegas shooter charged

Represent this text to find a news title for it

CHANDLER, AZ (AP) — An Arizona man who sold ammunition to the gunman in the deadliest mass shooting in modern U.S. history was charged Friday with manufacturing armor-piercing bullets, according to court documents obtained by The Associated Press.
Unfired armor-piercing bullets found inside the Las Vegas hotel room where the attack was launched on Oct. 1 contained the fingerprints of ammunition dealer Douglas Haig of Arizona, according to the complaint filed in federal court in Phoenix. It says Haig didn’t have a license to manufacture armor-piercing ammunition.
The records don’t say if the ammunition was used in the attack. Haig was charged shortly before holding a news conference Friday where he said didn’t notice anything suspicious when he sold 720 rounds of ammunition to Stephen Paddock in the weeks before the attack that killed 58 people.
Haig, a 55-year-old aerospace engineer who sold ammunition as a hobby for about 25 years, said he met Paddock at a Phoenix gun show in the weeks before the shooting and he was well-dressed and polite.
He didn’t have the quantity of tracer ammunition on hand that Paddock was seeking, so Paddock contacted him a few days later and lined up a sale at Haig’s home in the Phoenix suburb of Mesa. Tracer bullets contain a pyrotechnic charge that illuminates the path of fired bullets so shooters can see whether their aim is correct.
Haig said he was shocked and sickened when a federal agent informed him of the massacre 11 hours after it unfolded.
“I had no contribution to what Paddock did,” Haig said, adding that there was nothing unusual about the type or quantity of ammunition Paddock bought. “I had no way to see into his mind.”
Haig’s lawyer said they held the news conference in a bid to protect his reputation after he was revealed earlier this week to be a “person of interest” in the investigation. Haig’s identity emerged by mistake after his name was not redacted in court documents.
Haig arose in the investigation when a box with his name and address was found in the Mandalay Bay hotel suite where Paddock launched the attack on a music festival below.
He gave the box to Paddock to carry the 720 rounds of tracer ammunition from the sale.
Haig said Paddock told him that “he was going to go out to the desert to put on a light show, either with or for his friends. I can’t remember whether he used the word ‘with’ or ‘for.’ But he said that he was going out at night to shoot it with friends.”
He said he has received unwanted media attention and death threats since his name was released. Still, Haig, who has closed his ammunition business, said he doesn’t expect to take any legal action as a result of his name being publicly revealed.
The Las Vegas Police Department and U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives declined to comment when contacted earlier Friday.
The FBI and U.S. attorney’s office in Nevada didn’t immediately respond to emails seeking comment.

Marilou Danley, the girlfriend of Las Vegas shooter Stephen Paddock, has reportedly told investigators that he “would lie in bed, just moaning and screaming, ‘Oh, my God,’” according to former FBI officials who were briefed on the matter. NBC News reported that investigators believe that Paddock suffered from mental illness or physical pain, but that deterioration of his mental health did not appear to be the catalyst behind a deadly shooting spree that killed 59 people and injured more than 500. State and federal officials did confirm that Paddock had been prescribed anti-anxiety medication Valium.
Danley, 62, a Philippines native with Australian citizenship, was seen in footage being removed from a flight to Manila out of Los Angeles Airport after FBI agents declared her a person of interest in the case. Danley’s sisters had said that Paddock had bought her the ticket to the Philippines, and that she had no idea about his plan to attack the music festival.
Paddock is believed to have investigated other possible targets for his attack in Boston and Chicago, where thousands, including former first daughter Malia obama, attended Lollapalooza in early August.

It's now time to find a path back to the top of the logistics "food chain"
Since its 2010 IPO, Roadrunner Transportation Systems (RRTS) has barreled to the top of the asset-light transportation market through a series of acquisitions. By 2013, the Illinois-based company was the fastest growing LTT carrier in the top 50 and expanding into truckload, logistics, and intermodal services.
Roadrunner’s ability to create operating efficiencies across its new and old businesses has not kept pace with its acquisition spree. So when the industrial/manufacturing sector slumped in 2016, one would think that Roadrunner’s growth story would slow.
But is trucker actually coasting through the slowdown?
Only insiders know the answer. Roadrunner has had a virtual blackout on company financial information since it stopped filing financial reports, as required by the SEC, in the third quarter of 2016. The blackout coincided with the announcement Roadrunner was revising its financial statements over the last three years due to misrepresentations.
Recently, Roadrunner’s stock has perked up. After significantly underperforming the S&P 500 over the year with a return of 7.9% versus 17.7% for the broader index, Roadrunner has a three-month return of 25%.
What do the insiders know that we cannot with the lack of financial reporting? The veil on its financial operations is about to be lifted as the SEC puts more pressure on the company to clean up this financial overhang.
Its last financial report was in 3Q 2016 and depicted a company with low cash flow and working capital whose financing options were drying up. From 2013–2015, revenues grew at a compound annual growth rate of 21% to $2 billion. Over the same time period, operating income grew at a more modest 6.8% to $97 million. The company’s operating margin narrowed 29% to 4.85% as operating expenses climbed. As the industrial sector slumped, it became harder to turn the corner to profitability. For the first nine months of 2016, revenues slid 2% to $1.4 billion while operating income slid 89 percent to $38 million over the prior year period.
The Roadrunner metric to watch was financial leverage, which increased 24% to 2.16. Outstanding debt was $409.4 million and the company was in compliance with all debt covenants. Its leverage ratio, however, at 3.99 was at the limit allowed under its bank covenants.
A Vulture Swoops In
Adding to its 8.6% position in Roadrunner, in May, Elliott Management invested $540 million in redeemable preferred stock. Roadrunner has used the proceeds to pay off its senior credit facility and boost its working capital. Elliott has two seats on the board and now acts as an advisor to Roadrunner.
Elliott is not afraid of companies with accounting problems. The vulture investor invests in companies with financial and operational difficulties. It was an investor in WorldCom and Enron before their financial wrongdoings were exposed—two of America’s largest accounting scandals. According to Bloomberg’s tally, the hedge fund has been involved in $93 billion worth of asset sales and share buybacks in efforts to unlock shareholder value.
Elliott is likely behind the recent $95 million sales of Roadrunner’s Unitrans division, a temperature-controlled transportation unit, which allowed it to lower outstanding debt and interest expense. The buyer was New York’s Quick International Courier.
As Elliott swooped in, some investment funds, including conservative pension and mutual funds, starting selling out of Roadrunner in May. Investment funds typically sell investments if the risk profile no longer meets their investment objectives. One of those funds is the Mississippi Public Employees Pension System, the lead plaintiff in a class action lawsuit accusing Roadrunner of misrepresenting its financial results.
Industrial Slowdown
Roadrunner faces low demand and excess capacity across its core businesses. This trucker proved it was built for rugged times when it rode out the 2008 recession while maintaining margins and cash flow. But the aggressive acquisition strategy left it with very low cash flow and working capital to ride out the 2016 slowdown in the industrial and manufacturing sectors.
The company’s asset-light business model has been weighed down by expenses. Roadrunner’s underperformance relative to its peers underscores its operational weaknesses.
As a result of the 2016 revenue decline, Roadrunner lost its ranking in the top four LTT carriers in the $500 million-to-$1 billion range. This mid-tier group grew revenue by 2.5 percent in 2016. Smaller carriers under $500 million saw a comparable revenue increase while large carriers experienced a 0.13% decline.
2016 Snapshot and Future Growth Prospects
In its 3Q 2016 report, the main transportation businesses were struggling with lower margins.
EBITDA declined 42% to $66.9 million in the first nine months of 2016, over the prior year period. In Trucking and Logistics, Roadrunner was adding new business in expedite and air expedite services ahead of the higher fourth-quarter seasonal demand. However, pricing had decreased 10-15% over the prior year period.
Looking ahead, Roadrunner has sold its temperature-controlled business, Unitrans, which was weighing down margins. Transportation pricing is increasing in 2017. E-commerce will continue to drive demand for expedite services.
In 2016, Less-than-truckload carriers were suffering from low freight demand and fuel surcharges. Roadrunner’s EBITDA fell to zero. With an increase in industrial output in 2017, industry analysts expected LTT demand, fuel prices and fuel surcharges to rise as the LTT market enters an expansion phase.
Global Solutions was profitable with operating income improving across freight consolidation, inventory management, intermodal and brokerage operations. Industrywide, revenues across these sectors and the core transportation businesses are improving with the economy. In the short-term, though, rising shipping costs and bottlenecks arising from Hurricanes Harvey and Irma are expected to affect trucking and intermodal services growth in the fourth quarter. On the upside, LTT shipping demand is experiencing strong increases in hurricane-hit areas.
How much Roadrunner benefits from these economic and industry headwinds will depend on its making operating improvements. Until Roadrunner releases its financial statements, we can only deduce its progress.
Recent financing activity indicates Roadrunner has improved top line revenue growth. In July, the company secured a five-year $292 million asset-based lending facility from a consortium of banks, $200 million of which is secured by accounts receivable and inventory. The company used part of the proceeds to redeem some of the preferred stock issued to Elliott in May. The facility is evidence the banks deem Roadrunner to have solid long-term revenue growth prospects. One can further deduce the banks are satisfied Roadrunner is improving operating margins and has sufficient operating capacity to profitably operate its business over the medium term. Elliott has a strong track record rightsizing businesses and that should add further confidence to investors looking at Road Runner.

Question: The First #BoycottAdele Wasn't Over A Grammy, But On How To Make Tea

This news article should be represented to find a fitting news title

After her glorious Grammy sweep on Sunday night, Adele woke up to a #BoycottAdele hashtag, with many Beyoncé fans questioning her "unfair" win over their idol. But calls for a boycott are scarcely new for Adele. Last year, after she endorsed Hillary Clinton for president, Trump supporters launched a similar hashtag. Buffeted by the competitive politics of the right and left, the English singer will likely think longingly back to the uncomplicated very first #BoycottAdele hashtag that trended briefly in 2015 after the release of her hit single "Hello."
It had nothing to do with politics and everything to do with tea.
The millions of fans who have watched the music video of "Hello" know that a steaming cup of tea has a central role to play in providing succor to the singer's lovesick heart.
Artfully stained with sepia and loss, the retro video opens with a deeply depressed Adele walking into a shut-up house enrobed in dustcovers. Outside, it's wickedly cold and blustery. Inside (her broken heart) the temperature's pretty tundra-like too. So while she lavishly mourns the loss of her coffee-drinking lover in song, Adele does what the English do when things look bleak. She pops the kettle on. There's a delicately patterned china cup and saucer waiting to be filled. So far, so good.
Then, the singer does something absolutely shocking. She pours hot water into the cup and then pops in a tea bag. Instead of the other way around, of course. This casual switching of steps was an outrage and nothing short of tea treason. British twitter sputtered with indignation.
How reassuringly English. A country that has fought two opium wars with China to protect its precious tea supply takes the beverage very seriously.
Ask the man who is the au currant hero, George Orwell. He may have fought totalitarianism all his life, but when it came to making a pot of tea, it was his way or the highway. His popular essay, "A nice cup of tea," is an 11-point disquisition on how to achieve just that. Orwell would have been horrified by Adele's – and the modern streamlined style of – tea-making. Not merely by the presence of a teabag but by the absence of a teapot. "If the tea is not loose in the pot it never infuses properly," he declaimed. In order to get a good infusion, one "should take the teapot to the kettle, and not the other way about. The water should be actually boiling at the moment of impact, which means that one should keep it on the flame while one pours."
As for that other great anti-totalitarian Brit, John Lennon, he could imagine a world without heaven and religion, but not without tea – brewed the right way, of course. A few years ago, his widow, Yoko Ono, wrote a piece for The New York Times called "The Tea Maker," in which she affectionately recalled their midnight tea-making kitchen trysts. "Yoko, Yoko, you're supposed to first put the tea bags in, and then the hot water," John would admonish her. And so Ono allowed him to make the tea his way. But, for tea purists, there's an unfortunate twist to this story. As Ono tells it:
One night, however, John said: "I was talking to Aunt Mimi this afternoon and she says you are supposed to put the hot water in first. Then the tea bag. I could swear she taught me to put the tea bag in first, but ..." "So all this time, we were doing it wrong?" "Yeah ..." We both cracked up...
So Adele should take heart. She has the great Beatle on her side. But though once a committed tea drinker, Adele has given up her 10-cups-a-day habit. Not because of the tea trolls but because of the pounds she was putting on from the heavily sugared cups.
Meanwhile, her "Hello" video has launched a range of "Hello, it's tea" merchandise and several cheeky parodies, including changing the soulful line of Lionel Richie's 1983 hit, "Hello," to "Hello, is it tea you're looking for?" In another very funny send-up, an English radio presenter rewrote the lyrics to make tea the star. So instead of belting out "Hello from the other side," we have:
Where the hell's my cup of tea? My ginger nut needs dunking see Have you even turned the kettle on? I should have had it by now But all my biscuits are gone I love tea It's me and tea.
On Sunday night, after an awkward, overwrought but sincere-sounding acceptance speech in which she nervously lavished praise on Beyoncé, Adele accidentally broke her trophy in half. As if it were a ginger nut biscuit she was dying to dunk into a cup of tea. With all of those boycott hashtags, she could certainly do with a cuppa.

Question: Baby feet: Toddler bones show pre-human kids scampered up trees

Breaking News Emails Get breaking news alerts and special reports. The news and stories that matter, delivered weekday mornings.
The foot bones of a toddler who died 3 million years ago show that baby pre-humans could both walk upright like modern humans and scamper up trees like apes, researchers said Wednesday.
The thumb-sized fossils come from a skeleton discovered in Dikika, Ethiopia in 2002 and they have delivered priceless insights into how modern humans evolved from our distant ancestors, the researchers said.
“To have a fossil this complete, and to have the fossil of a child, gives us a brand-new window into of what it was like 3 million years ago,” said Jeremy DeSilva, a paleontologist at Dartmouth University whose team examined the tiny foot bones.
“Skeletons are rare and skeletons of kids are even rarer.”

Different teams of experts have looked at various parts of the precious fossil skeleton, which belonged to an Australopithecus afarensis that would have been about 2 ½ years old when she died.
It took years to remove the foot bones from the sandstone it was embedded in, DeSilva told NBC News.
“This is done grain by grain under the microscope,” he said.
More like apes or more like humans?
The bones have been dated to about 3.3 million years ago and identified as the same species as “Lucy”, the most famous example of Australopithecus. The toddler bones date to about 200,000 years earlier than Lucy’s, however.
DeSilva’s analysis of the foot shows that baby Australopithecines had features that were similar to both modern humans, and to modern apes, he reports in the journal Science Advances.
“This is a very humanlike foot,” he said. “What is curious is it still retains some apelike features. The toes are slightly curved and longer than a modern human’s.”
To DeSilva, this suggests that juvenile Australopithecines clung to their parents much as baby apes do today, and probably could climb trees quickly.
Paleontologists who study Australopithecus argue about whether they were more like apes or more like modern humans.
“Our field has been divided into two camps, with one group saying Lucy and her kind … still climbed trees … and maybe that means they didn’t walk as well as we do today,” DeSilva said.
“There is another group that says, ‘Look at these bones. They did walk as we do and these apelike features are just an echo of the past from when their ancestors were still in the trees'.”
That’s because, in part, the bones of adult Australopithecus have a heavy heel, made for slamming into the ground, just like modern humans have.
But the baby foot doesn’t have such a heavy heel.

“What this baby’s foot allows us to do is introduce a third possibility,” DeSilva said.
“That is that the adults were very good walkers, but it is the kids that are climbing up into those trees,” he added.
That could be for play, just as modern children clamber all over the monkey bars while their parents stay on the ground.
“But you also don’t see leopards roaming around playgrounds,” DeSilva pointed out. “Three million years ago, this environment was filled with predators.”
"If you were living in Africa 3 million years ago without fire, without structures, and without any means of defense, you'd better be able get up in a tree when the sun goes down.”
Also, having infants and toddlers that could hold on tight, without having to be carried, would make it much easier for the parents to move around. “Another thing they didn’t have 3 million years ago was strollers,” DeSilva said.
Modern human babies are born with feet already made for walking, but Australopithecus could have developed strong walking feet in another way, DeSilva said — by using them that way.
“Bones are living tissues. They grow and respond and they change shape depending on what you do to them,” he said. “Even though humans and Lucy’s kind as adults have chunky heels, we developed them in completely different ways. We would never have known that without this fossil.”
DeSilva, who has twins who were themselves toddlers when he started studying the fossil, says he feels a special attachment to it.
“This was a toddler who died and it’s really hard to think about when you have your own toddlers,” he said. “And yet it is giving us this absolutely extraordinary amount of information about our past and about why we are the way we are today.”

"Ignore, decline or whatever, but please don\'t send our band out in our name to do that."\nThe move has lit up Talladega College\'s social media sites with a sharp debate about the band\'s decision to participate in the parade. Some people voiced strong opposition, while others support the band\'s participation.\n"After how black people were treated at Trump\'s rallies, you\'re going to go and shuck and jive down Pennsylvania Avenue? For what?" Seinya SamForay said in an interview. "What they did is a slap in the face to other black universities."\nSamForay, of Chicago, was among dozens of people commenting on the school\'s social media sites.\nThe Presidential Inaugural Committee announced Friday that the Talladega College Marching Tornadoes was among 40 groups, including high school bands and military organizations, scheduled to perform in the parade. Some members of the Marist College band in upstate New York, also scheduled to perform at the inauguration, say they won\'t participate, a school spokesman said Monday.\nRon White of Atlanta, a 1997 graduate of another historically black college, Fort Valley State University in Georgia, said he questioned why band members from Talladega "should be playing all these patriotic tunes for someone who has degraded us."\nAt the same time, though, White said he respects the office of the president and he hopes that Talladega\'s band does well.\n"What they should do in my opinion is play that national anthem the best way they\'ve ever played it in their life, because you\'re basically saluting the country," White said in an interview.\nThe nation\'s historically black colleges and universities instil in students the idea that "ignored behaviour is condoned behaviour ," said Reese Walker of Memphis, who marched in the band at Mississippi Valley State University. That\'s one reason he doesn\'t think Talladega College should participate.\nTalladega College officials haven\'t returned several phone calls and emails seeking comment.\nThe college was founded in 1867, by the descendants of the slaves who helped to build its first building, according to historical documents on the college\'s website .\nThe decision to march in Trump\'s inaugural parade has also sparked controversy at Marist College in Poughkeepsie, New York.

(GUATEMALA CITY) — Five people were killed and seven injured by a magnitude 6.9 earthquake that struck Wednesday in western Guatemala near the border with Mexico, Guatemala's national emergency coordination agency reported.
The fatalities included a woman in the city of San Marcos who was killed by a falling wall and a homeless man in the town of San Sebastian Retalhueleu who was struck by the collapse of part of a church. Both locales were close to the epicenter.
Three women in different departments, or states, died from heart attacks attributed to fright caused by the pre-dawn quake.
Authorities reported moderate damage to homes, some landslides that blocked highways and at least seven people hurt.
"We greatly mourn the loss of lives," President Jimmy Morales said.
The U.S. Geological Survey reported the earthquake was centered 5 miles southwest of Tajumulco, Guatemala, at a depth of about 69 miles.
The emergency coordination agency said the quake struck at 1:29 a.m. local time and was felt throughout the country.
Authorities reported power was knocked out in several departments.
San Marcos, which is home to about 25,000 people, lies 13 miles from the epicenter.
The mountainous region is sparsely populated with communities scattered around the base of the dormant Tajumulco volcano. Most residents are small-scale farmers or run small businesses.
Officials said classes in the area would be canceled Wednesday to allow school buildings to be inspected.
The earthquake also rattled the Guatemalan capital, waking residents but without causing damage there.
Across the border in Mexico, Gov. Manuel Velasco of the southern state of Chiapas said via Twitter that there were reports of cracked walls and shattered windows in Huixtla, but so far no injuries. Local Civil Protection authorities said the quake was felt throughout the state.
There was no tsunami warning.

Question: Jets sign LB Brandon Copeland, re-sign DL Xavier Cooper

NEW YORK — The New York Jets signed former Lions linebacker Brandon Copeland and re-signed defensive lineman Xavier Cooper on Monday.
Copeland missed last season after tearing a pectoral muscle during the preseason. He had 30 tackles and one forced fumble in 32 games the previous two seasons with the Lions.
The 26-year-old Copeland is expected to serve as a backup on defence and be a key part of the Jets' special teams unit.
"Too many different levels of excitement to put into words," Copeland told the Jets' website. "Coming off of injured reserve, having to sit every Sunday, Monday and Thursday and watching other people play, I'm first and foremost excited to get back to the game that I love."
He signed with Baltimore as an undrafted free agent out of Penn in 2013 and spent time later that season on Tennessee's practice squad. After signing with Orlando of the Arena Football League in 2015, Copeland impressed Detroit after participating in the NFL Veterans Combine. His grandfather, Roy Hilton, played for the Baltimore Colts against the Jets in the Super Bowl in 1969.
"He played defensive end against Joe Namath and all those guys," Copeland said. "I know he's going to be very proud of his grandson and now my job is to continue to make him proud."
Cooper was not tendered as a restricted free agent, but was brought back to serve as a rotational defensive lineman. He had 16 tackles and one sack in eight games, and his play increased when Muhammad Wilkerson was benched at the end of last season.
Cooper was a third-round pick by Cleveland out of Washington State in 2015. He has also spent time with San Francisco, and has 56 career tackles and three sacks.

E.g.:
['Represent the article to find a fitting news title', '(CNN) When Sri Lanka\'s government first looked to develop a port on its southern coast that faced the Indian Ocean, it went not to China, but to its neighbor, India.\nThen-Sri Lankan Prime Minister Mahinda Rajapaksa said he urgently needed funding to transform the harbor of his home town and asked Indian officials for help with the project.\nNew Delhi showed little interest in funding a costly and massive port construction project in the underdeveloped fishing village of Hambantota, a district that had been crushed by the Indian Ocean tsunami in 2004\n"It was offered to India first. I was desperate for development work, but ultimately the Chinese agreed to build it," Rajapaksa said in an interview with Singapore\'s Straits Times in 2010\nThe venture was considered economically unviable and indeed, in the years that followed, the port sat empty and neglected, and Sri Lanka\'s debt ballooned\nBut India\'s economic foresight might have cost it in terms of strategic geopolitics, since the debt incurred on the port and the surrounding infrastructure undertakings now belong to its great rival.\nChina\'s official licensing of the port in December last year gives it yet another point of access over a key shipping route, and the prospect of providing it with a sizeable presence in India\'s immediate backyard and traditional sphere of influence, bringing China closer to India\'s shores than New Delhi might like.\nSri Lankan dancers perform at the site of the Hambantota port during a ceremony marking the first phase of construction, August 15, 2010.\nMoreover, Sri Lanka\'s decision to sign a 99-year lease with a Chinese state-owned company for the Hambantota port to service some of the billions it owes to Beijing has some observers concerned other developing nations doing business with China as part of China\'s One Belt One Road initiative might fall into similar financial straits.\nA trap, they warn, that may well have them owing more than just money to Beijing.\n"China is, in many cases, the only party with the interest and the capital to deliver on these projects," said Jeff Smith, a research fellow on South Asia at the Heritage Foundation in Washington DC. "The relevant question for everyone is: at what cost?"\n\'A determined strategy by China\'\nChina has for decades invested in Sri Lanka, particularly during moments in recent history when much of the international community held off\nJeff Smith points out that along with the Hambantota port investments, Beijing loaned Sri Lanka $200 million in 2010 for a second international airport and a year later a further $810 million for the "second phase of the port project."\nThere was more. $272 million for a railway in 2013 and more than $1 billion for the Colombo Port City project, ventures that hired mostly Chinese workers (one Sri Lankan report put the number of Chinese workers dedicated to projects in 2009 at 25,000 ), and all with money Sri Lanka could barely afford to repay.\nAfter an equity swap, an IMF bailout and more control over the projects ceded to Beijing, the terms of the debt were restructured, giving Sri Lanka some breathing space.\nIn 2017, however, the Hambantota port proved too costly for Sri Lanka to sustain.\n"They (the Chinese) called in the debt, and the debt has been paid by Sri Lanka giving them the (Hambantota) port. That port then gives them not only a strategic access point into India\'s sphere of influence through which China can deploy its naval forces, but it also gives China an advantageous position to export its goods into India\'s economic sphere, so it\'s achieved a number of strategic aims in that regard," said Malcolm Davis, senior analyst at the Australian Strategic Policy Institute in Sydney.\n"This is part of a determined strategy by China to extend its influence across the Indian Ocean at the expense of India and it\'s using Sri Lanka to achieve it," he said.\nDetails of the new agreement between China and Sri Lanka have not been made public.\nThe port is an "important project aimed at spurring local economic growth based on equality and mutual benefits," according to the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs. It declined to answer further when asked by reporters.\nConstruction workers operate heavy equipment at the base of Sri Lanka\'s Hambantota port August 1, 2010. Some 350 Chinese staff helped in the first phase of construction.\n\'Creating demand for Chinese goods\'\nChina\'s claiming of controlling stakes in strategic ports along critical shipping lanes -- what analysts have taken to referring to as its "string of pearls" -- beginning at the Straits of Malacca and dotting the Indian Ocean, should signal Beijing\'s ultimate ambitions, said Davis.\n"There\'s a bigger picture here, that the more you invest in the Belt and Road initiative, the more the Chinese are in a position to force your country to align politically in terms of policy," Davis told CNN.\n"So you become dependent on their investment and their largesse, and you\'re less likely to be critical of them and you\'re more likely to accommodate their interests strategically."\nBeijing\'s other potential partners are finding difficulty with some of their own joint projects.\nIn Myanmar, a $3.6 billion dam project has stalled. The then-military backed government suspended work on the Myitsone dam in the north of the country in 2011, with talks regarding its future ongoing.\nPakistan withdrew from a $14 billion agreement with China for a dam last November because the conditions of the deal included China taking ownership of the project and were "not doable and against our interests," Pakistan\'s Water and Power Development Authority chairman Muzammil Hussain was quoted as saying. Like Nepal, Pakistan has since indicated it would also look to shoulder the cost of the dam rather than go to an outside investor.\nChina\'s Ministry of Foreign Affairs claimed to be unaware of this when asked about the situation by reporters in Beijing in December. The country\'s top economic planning agency later said that the two countries were discussing cooperating on the dam project but that there\'d been no discussion of proposals to move it forward. The agency said "Pakistan media\'s reporting on this project has been inaccurate, or only represented the views of certain officials."\nBut China is still spending in Pakistan. It is building a hydroelectric power station in the Rawalpindi district, and it is developing the port of Gwadar , strategically located on the Arabian Sea.\nChina\'s trade deal with the Maldives government included investments in developing the international airport and a bridge, but the Maldives in return has taken on a significant number of controversial loan obligations.\nLast July, former President Mohamed Nasheed said the loan interest the traditionally Indian ally pays to service its foreign debt to China is more than 20% of the country\'s budget. He said that part of the deal included China\'s receipt of 16 "strategically located islands" in navigation sea-lanes.\nA Sri Lankan soldier walks past a billboard bearing portraits of Chinese President Xi Jinping and Sri Lankan President Mahinda Rajapakse, ahead\'s of Xi\'s visit to the Sri Lankan capital Colombo, September 15, 2014.\nDean Cheng, a senior fellow at the Heritage Foundation in Washington, DC, said that the initial wave of Chinese investments in the Indian Ocean, the so-called string of pearls, was largely driven by economic considerations. The investments, he said, "would facilitate economic growth, which would benefit Chinese companies. Moreover, the construction projects would entail Chinese workers (a feature of most Chinese projects abroad, bringing their own work force), and create a demand base for Chinese goods."\nAt the same time, he said the Chinese are clearly intent on creating a friendly political network of states. "There\'s nothing inherently dangerous about political considerations in economic investments," he told CNN. "It would be foolish to think that any state is wholly driven by economic considerations."\nJUST WATCHED Leaders attend China\'s Belt and Road Forum Replay More Videos ... MUST WATCH Leaders attend China\'s Belt and Road Forum 01:43\nWhither India?\nThe ever-encroaching Chinese presence into India\'s sphere of political and economic influence has been noted, but so far, says Manoj Joshi, New Delhi purports to be unruffled, as long as Hambantota remains a commercial port, and no Chinese naval vessels suddenly appear in the vicinity.\n"In 2014 a Chinese submarine was spotted in Colombo harbor and that was the first time we saw that and the Indian side was a bit concerned," said Joshi, a distinguished fellow at the Observer Research Foundation in New Delhi. At the time Indian defense officials expressed "serious concern" to their Sri Lankan counterpart , and naval chiefs from both countries met to discuss the incidents. Then-Defense Minister Arun Jaitley said the government "keeps a constant watch on all developments concerning our national security and economic interests and takes necessary measures to safeguard them."\nA Sri Lankan commando stands guard on the Hambantota construction site, November 18, 2010.\n"It\'s geopolitical competition and India sees itself as the foremost nation in Asia and with the Chinese building a port, building and airport, building roads in Sri Lanka, they\'ve emerged as big investors there and the Indians are obviously feeling somewhat nervous because India doesn\'t have those kind of resources to compete with," Joshi told CNN.\n"What we worry about is, we already have a border problem with China and now that competition goes to the Indian Ocean region. That could be against our interests."\nIndia and China share a 2,500 mile-long border, and have regularly faced off over perceived intrusions on each other\'s terrain as well as activity in uninhabited territory claimed by China and Bhutan, an Indian ally.\n"Everybody talks about China and India being major rivals, I think China doesn\'t see India as a genuine long-term rival, I think it looks at India and sees a classic case of democracy gone wrong," said Yvonne Chiu, assistant professor in the politics department at the University of Hong Kong.\nIndia is incredibly corrupt , its infrastructure is terrible, and it is riddled with religious and demographic problems," she told CNN. "Except it is very large. It does have a big population as well and it\'s on the border. So it\'s a regional rival, but I don\'t think they take India seriously as a global rival."\nSri Lanka\'s President Mahinda Rajapakse, center, flanked by his eldest son and parliamentarian Namal Rajapakse, right, and Prime Minister D. M. Jayaratne, left, tour the Hambantota construction site, November 18, 2010.\nFor its part, India is now taking an active interest in Hambantota. The government of Prime Minister Narendra Modi is reported to be in talks with Sri Lanka about taking over the airport near the port, which was built using Chinese funds that Beijing itself wants to manage and is pushing for control with the Sri Lankan government. During a media briefing last November, Raveesh Kumar, an official spokesperson for the Ministry of External Affairs, would only say that New Delhi has "a lot of developmental projects" going on in Sri Lanka and declined to elaborate further. Colombo has yet to make a decision involving the airport.\nAnd New Delhi continues to actively participate in large-scale naval exercises in regional waters alongside allies Japan, and the US, and into the future, possibly Australia too, all to Beijing\'s continued consternation.\nLast year\'s Malabar exercises in the Bay of Bengal involving the US, Japan and India were the largest the region has seen in more than two decades\n"India, of course, remains highly influential in Sri Lanka, and would not look kindly on any effort to pressure the government on matters related to defense and national security," said Jeff Smith. "Nor would the Sri Lankan military, which values its exchanges with the US ."\nModi will be in Singapore in June, attending the Shangri-La dialogue , an annual meeting of defense ministers, military chiefs and defense officials from the Asia-Pacific. His keynote address will be carefully watched for words on China\'s maritime expansion.\nA White House unable to compete with China\nSouth Asia\'s problems are not on Washington\'s radar right now, says Hong Kong University professor Chiu. The White House has much of its focus -- along with a substantial naval presence -- directed towards the Korean Peninsula and the ongoing crisis there. And while the US is distracted, China is slowly and incrementally changing the seascape in the Asia Pacific. China claims disputed islands in the South China Sea as part of its territory and has been militarizing some of those islands, reclaiming land on others and turning sandbars into islands to assert sovereignty over the area.\n"Everything that they do, like building these islands (in the South China Sea) and stuff that is illegal internationally , but nobody wants to get into a conflict over, it adds up and you have a new status quo and it\'s too late to do anything about it," Chiu said.\n"China can\'t afford to go to war over anything ... it would most likely lose against a major power ... but these kind of small incremental things, people will let them get away with. As long as they\'re patient, it could have the same effect as going to war."\nEven as China has taken the long view, Dean Cheng argues it\'s never too late for the US and its allies to do something to counter Beijing\'s ambitions.\n"The US, in cooperation with India, Japan and possibly the European Union, could offer alternative financing," Cheng said. "They could help train local officials, lawyers, etc, to become better negotiators. They can push for transparency, especially in Chinese-sponsored institutions to make clear the terms of the loans, payback processes, as well as how contracts are rewarded."\nSri Lankan police stand guard during a protest in Colombo against the lease of the loss-making Hambantota port to China, February 1, 2017.\nLast October US Secretary of State Rex Tillerson gave a speech on the US relationship with India . Tillerson said it was up to New Delhi and Washington to "do a better job leveraging our collective expertise to meet common challenges while seeking even more avenues of cooperation."\n"We must also recognize that many Indo-Pacific nations have limited alternatives when it comes to infrastructure investment programs and financing schemes, which often fail to promote jobs or prosperity for the people they claim to help," Tillerson said. "It\'s time to expand transparent, high-standard regional lending mechanisms, tools that will actually help nations instead of saddle them with mounting debt."\nTillerson told reporters that during the East Asia ministerial summit in August that the US had started "a quiet conversation with others about what they were experiencing , what they need."\nHowever, he also admitted Washington\'s constraints. "We will not be able to compete with the kind of terms that China offers," said Tillerson. "But countries have to decide, what are they willing to pay to secure their sovereignty and their future control of their economies? And we\'ve had those discussions with them as well."\nChina\'s resources are nowhere near as limited as the US and its allies, says Yvonne Chiu from the University of Hong Kong.\n"Right now, it can play on multiple fronts at once," Chiu notes. "And they take a very long view. If you\'re a power like the US, you\'re really far away. That distance is going to limit how much attention you can pay to the region. The US has to pick and choose and it\'s chosen East Asia. So, unless something really major happens, that\'s probably where their attention is going to stay."\nA Chinese worker at the construction site of a Chinese-funded $1.4 billion reclamation project in Colombo, Sri Lanka in October 2017.\nAs 2017 wrapped up, the Chinese state news agency Xinhua published a dispatch from Colombo, describing how the Hambantota port was "now racing along a developmental fast-track.\nChinese and Sri Lankan workers were building a highway north of the port, along with a bridge, and the Chinese Harbor Engineering Company is negotiating with the Sri Lankan government to develop a Logistics Zone that will include a natural gas power plant and refineries, the agency reported.\nOn the first day of the new year, the Chinese flag flew beside Sri Lanka\'s at the port for the first time ever.\nRather than resist getting into further debt, Sri Lanka\'s government appears to be making more deals with China that it will may yet struggle to pay back.'] == ['I found this news title.

FRANKFURT, Germany (AP) — European businesses are unsettled as they watch the U.S. and China collide over trade. And for good reason: the nascent global trade war presents the biggest threat to the economic upswing that has helped the region get past its financial crisis.
In theory, some European companies could benefit, jumping into market niches if Chinese businesses are kept out of the U.S. market. But that would only be a few companies or sectors.
When your entire economy is heavily dependent on trade, an overall slowdown in global commerce caused by tit-for-tat import taxes provokes fear and undermines confidence.
And that's just what's happening in Europe. By one measure, business confidence has fallen in six of the past seven months in Germany, where exports are almost half of annual economic output.
"It's worth all our efforts to defuse this conflict, so it doesn't become a war," said German Chancellor Angela Merkel on Wednesday.
The U.S. is due to put tariffs on $34 billion worth of Chinese goods on Friday. The Chinese will respond with tariffs on an equivalent value of U.S. products such as soybeans, seafood and crude oil.
Amid all this, Europe has its own trade dispute with the U.S. After the U.S. put tariffs on steel and aluminum from many allies, including the European Union, the 28-country bloc responded with import taxes on some $3.25 billion of U.S. goods. The Trump administration is also studying the option of putting tariffs on cars, which would significantly escalate the confrontation.
The head of the European Union's executive commission, Jean-Claude Juncker, will head to Washington in late July to try to personally persuade Trump against further measures targeting Europe.
The disputes over trade threaten to spoil the good times for Europe's economy.
Growth last year was the strongest in a decade, since before the global financial crisis. While that has eased in recent quarters the economy has still done well enough to reduce create jobs. The number of unemployed people fell by 125,000 in May, leaving unemployment in the 19 countries that use the euro at 8.4 percent, the lowest since 2008. Joblessness is still high in some places, like Greece and Spain, but the overall rate is down from a high of 12.1 percent in 2013.
"Trade tensions stoked by U.S. President Donald Trump are clouding the economic outlook in Europe," wrote analysts at Berenberg bank in London. They rated the risk ahead of troubles from Italy's heavy debt load or tighter credit conditions by central banks like the U.S. Federal Reserve.
Many European companies would suffer because they both produce and sell goods in the U.S. and China, the world's biggest economies.
For example, tariffs that China is expected to impose Friday on U.S.-made autos would hit German carmakers Daimler and BMW since they both make vehicles in the United States and export them to China.
Daimler has already lowered its outlook for profits, citing higher than expected costs from the new tariffs. BMW warned in a letter to Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross on Friday that tariffs would make it harder for BMW to sell vehicles built at its U.S. factory in Spartanburg, South Carolina in China, "potentially leading to a strongly reduced export volumes and negative effects on investment and employment in the United States."
Last year, BMW exported 272,000 vehicles from the Spartanburg plant, more than half its total production. Of those, 81,000 — worth $2.37 billion — went to China. BMW says its exports reduced the U.S. trade deficit by around $1 billion.
By themselves, the tariffs that take effect Friday won't immediately have a dramatic impact on global trade. The fear is that retaliation will spiral, hitting the total amount of global commerce.
Even if the overall effect is to harm growth, there could be benefits for some European companies and sectors. Economists Alicia Garcia Herrero and Jianwei Xu at the French bank Natixis say that European makers of cars, aircraft, chemicals, computer chips and factory machinery could in theory snare market gains by substituting for Chinese or American products in the two markets. But that's only if Europe's own trade dispute with the U.S. does not escalate — a big if.
Europe is waiting to see whether the Trump administration will go ahead separately with tariffs on auto imports. European companies like BMW, Daimler's Mercedes-Benz, Volkswagen's Porsche and Audi divisions, and Fiat Chrysler send $46.6 billion worth of vehicles every year to the U.S. Some 13.3 million people, or 6.1 percent of the employed population of the EU, work in the automotive sector, according to the European Automobile Manufacturers Association.
"Europe cannot win anything" on an overall basis "for one obvious reason: we are net exporters," said Garcia Herrero, chief economist for Asia Pacific at Natixis and a senior fellow at European research institute Bruegel. "But we should not understate the view that some sectors could get something out of a U.S.-China trade war."
Amid the brewing conflict, China has sought to get Europe on its side, put on a diplomatic charm offensive during visits by Merkel and French Prime Minister Edouard Philippe. The EU and China agreed last month to deepen commercial ties and support trade rules. But the EU remains a close, longtime ally of the U.S. on a range of issues, despite the current tensions with the Trump administration.
One negative outcome for Europe, Herrero said, would be if Trump can push the Chinese into a trade agreement aimed at reducing the U.S. trade deficit. The additional U.S. goods to China could come at the expense of European competitors.
"If China concedes to the U.S. proposed agreement, the whole situation faced by the EU would be much tougher," she and Xu wrote in a research note. "For China to massively reduce its trade surplus with the U.S., it has to in some way substitute its imports away from the EU to the U.S., which would have a significant negative impact on the EU producers."

Both countries are planning to put a 25 percent duty on £25.78billion ($34billion) worth of products on Friday July 6, but because Beijing is 12 hours ahead of Washington China will be implementing them first. Donald Trump’s administration first declared the US would slap tariffs on Chinese products that cover more than 800 categories. China is just retaliating to Mr Trump’s escalating threats and isolationist trade policies. The tariff will take effect at the beginning of the day, but a specific time for China is unclear.
An anonymous source told Reuters that the US will implement their tariffs from midnight. They said: “Our measures are equal and being equal means that if the US starts on July 6, we start on July 6. “The implementation time for all policies starts at midnight.” The China’s customs agency did not respond to Reuters’ requests for comment.
GETTY China's tariff will hit the US first
However, if China were to implement their tariffs at midnight on July 6, it would still be July 5 in Washington. The threat of a trade war has sent the Chinese yuan into a tailspin as the stock market remains jittery. Yesterday, the currency hit an 11-month low as investors and traders are uncertain about the increased tensions between the world’s two biggest economies. The market is expected to remain this way until July 6.

A market strategist at the Sumitomo Mitsui Trust Bank says it is too early to tell what the tariff’s impact will be on the global economy, but it has already caused rife speculation in China. Ayako Sera said: “It's not clear yet if the trade row will derail the global economy as a whole but it's already clear that it will harm Chinese companies. "That is why we've seen Chinese yuan and Chinese stocks have suffered sell-offs. I think this will continue at least until the July 6 deadline." The tailspin isn’t expected to be a repeat of 2015 where the Chinese market unexpectedly repeat allowed the currency to weaken nearly three percent again the US dollar.

The bill will hike the minimum wage — currently set to rise with inflation from $11.40 an hour to $11.60 in October, up to $14 on Jan. 1, 2018, and $15 the following year.\nBut the according to a study commissioned by Ontario’s Chamber of Commerce, the bill will put jobs at risk and have “dramatic unintended consequences.” Chamber vice- president Karl Baldauf said the province needs to slow down and amend its legislation.\n“Should the government move forward with these vast, unprecedented reforms, there will be significant, sudden and sizable uncertainty for jobs and economic growth in Ontario,” he said. The report also says that Ontario businesses will see a $23 billion “hit” over the next two years because of the legislation. While the changes won’t cause mass layoffs, they will kill job growth, said Paul Smetanin, president of the Canadian Centre for Economic Analysis, which conducted the study.\n“The results are not sensationalized,” Smetanin said. “We have been conservative in adopting what literature suggests. It pains us to have to deliver such a message.”\nThe report also estimates there will be costs for the Ontario government itself. Increased costs associated with the bill will add $440 million in debt to the province’s treasury.\n“As I go from community to community, the thing that I’m hearing over and over again is that these changes are all too much too fast,” he said.\nLabour Minister Kevin Flynn said the government will review the findings the report. It’s one of a “long list” of studies on the topic, he added.\n“We recognize there are concerns from the business community,” he said in a statement. “We’ve worked hard to make sure Ontario’s business climate is competitive, and we are committed to working with the business community to bring forward initiatives that will improve our competitiveness even more.\nThat being said, we will not back down from our plan to bring fairness to Ontarians.”\nProgressive Conservative labour critic John Yakabuski said the Liberal government needs to conduct its own economic impact study of the new bill.\n“It’ll be a tragedy if all of these 185,000 people are put out of work,” Yakabuski said in a statement. “A higher minimum wage doesn’t help if Ontarians don’t have a job to wake up to in the morning.”\nsjeffords@postmedia.com\nSmall businesses will be hit hard: CFIB\nANTONELLA ARTUSO\nAn economic analysis of proposed labour law changes including a $15-an-hour minimum wage confirms that small businesses are going to get hit hard, the Canadian Federation of Independent Business (CFIB) says.\nJulie Kwiecinski, the CFIB’s director of provincial affairs in Ontario, said its own member survey shows that one-third are considering shutting down or moving in response to the mandatory wage hikes beginning with a $14-an-hour minimum on Jan. 1.\n“Unfortunately, we have felt and seen the government do their eye rolls at us... not believing what we were saying in our survey,” Kwiecinski said Monday. “They’re scared, they’re worried that this is actually going to start taking effect on Jan. 1.”\nA report prepared by the Canadian Centre for Economic Analysis (CANCEA), on behalf of the Ontario Chamber of Commerce and the Keep Ontario Working Coalition, says small businesses are five times more likely to be impacted by the new provincial labour legislation than large companies.\nThe government bill goes before a committee next week when MPPs will have the chance to introduce amendments, she said.\n“If people think it’s bad now, it could get worse in terms of the cost to business and jobs when the whole process is said and done,” Kwiecinski said.\nThe Ontario Federation of Labour (OFL) issued a statement Monday dismissing the findings of the CANCEA analysis as “inaccurate, incomplete and just not responsible.”\nThe “corporate lobby” analysis fails to consider economic benefits to raising the minimum wage such as higher consumer spending and reduced demand on social services, the OFL statement says.\nPeer-reviewed economic research has found that contrary to the report’s claim that 185,000 jobs are at risk, increases in minimum wage have “very small, if any impacts” on employment levels, the statement says.\nCANCEA said in its report that it is independent and does not accept any research funding that requires a pre-determined result or policy stance.']" should be close to "['Represent this text', 'Minimum wage hike threatens 185,000 jobs: Study']"

Question: Australians commemorate 103rd anniversary of Turkish battle

Thousands of Australians have gathered at pre-dawn services around the country to commemorate the moment when Australian and New Zealand Army Corps troops waded ashore at the Gallipoli peninsula in Turkey 103 years ago in their first major battle of World War I.
Because extremists have targeted annual ANZAC Day April 25 ceremonies in the past, concrete barriers were placed around the service in downtown Sydney to protect those who gathered at Martin Place against vehicle attacks.
Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull, his French counterpart Edouard Philippe and the heir to the British throne, Prince Charles, will mark ANZAC Day in France with a service that also commemorates the 100th anniversary of Australian troops taking the town of Villers-Bretonneux from the Germans.
Home Affairs Minister Peter Dutton represents the Australian government at a service at ANZAC Cove at Gallipoli where the Australian and New Zealand troops landed under British command in an ill-fated attempt to take the Ottoman Empire out of the war.

MOSCOW (AP) — The Latest at the World Cup (all times local):
3:03 p.m.
Russian police have briefly detained several activists protesting political repressions outside a World Cup arena.
Police moved quickly to round up four teenagers outside the stadium where Sweden knocked out Switzerland on Tuesday. The four were released a few hours later.
Lika Petrovskaya, a 16-year-old who wore a bloodied white dress at the protest, said their goal was “to attract attention to the political repressions,” including the imprisonment of Ukrainian filmmaker Oleg Sentsov. Another five activists were also detained Tuesday while they were distributing leaflets calling for Sentsov’s release.
Sentsov, a vocal opponent of Russia’s annexation of Crimea, was sentenced in 2015 to 20 years for conspiracy to commit terror acts. He denied the charges and has been on a hunger strike since mid-May.

After impressing at the World Cup, Iceland goalkeeper Hannes Halldorsson has been sold by Danish team FC Randers to Azerbaijan champion Qarabag.
Iceland exited the tournament at the group stage but Randers’ sporting director Soeren Pedersen says the performance of the 34-year Icelander “hasn’t gone unnoticed.” Halldorsson’s tournament was highlighted by saving a penalty kick from Lionel Messi in a 1-1 draw with Argentina.
Pedersen said Wednesday that the club got “a concrete bid from Qarabag, which we have accepted.” Details of the deal were not released.
Halldorsson, who played 69 games for the team, said “it is time for me to try something else and embark on a new adventure.”

EMBED >More News Videos Van plows into pedestrians in Toronto: Brian Taff reports on Action News at 4 p.m., April 23, 2018
The 25-year-old suspect who plowed a van into a crowded Toronto sidewalk was ordered held Tuesday on 10 counts of murder and 13 of attempted murder as Canadian authorities and the public sought to make sense of one of the deadliest mass killings in the country's modern history.Alek Minassian showed little emotion as he made a brief appearance in a Toronto courtroom in a white jumpsuit and handcuffs. The judge ordered him detained without bond and scheduled the next hearing for May 10.His father, Vahe Minassian, cried and looked stunned inside the courtroom. Asked outside if he had any message for the families of the victims, he said quietly: "I'm sorry."Police, meanwhile, continued to gather evidence. About 20 officers made their way down the van's deadly path on Yonge Street, which remained closed to traffic on Tuesday and taped off with yellow crime scene tape. Nearby, mourners had put together a makeshift memorial to the victims."It was like he was playing a video game, trying to kill as many people as possible," said Panna Patel, 42, who stopped by the memorial and had been at the scene a day earlier, getting cash from an ATM. "He was looking people directly in the eye, making eye contact, it was so scary. He wasn't remorseful at all."Prime Minister Justin Trudeau dismissed the possibility of terrorism, saying that authorities saw no national security element in the case.He told a news conference that the incident "hasn't changed the overall threat level in Canada," though it occurred as Cabinet ministers from the G7 nations were meeting in Toronto.Authorities have not disclosed a possible motive, though "the incident definitely looked deliberate," Police Chief Mark Saunders told reporters at a late-night news conference on Monday.Saunders said Minassian, who lives in the Toronto suburb of Richmond Hill, had not been known to police previously. An online social media profile described him as a college student.Authorities released few details in the case, saying the investigation was still underway, with witnesses being interviewed and surveillance video being examined."We are looking very strongly to what the exact motivation was for this particular incident to take place," Saunders said. "We need every single piece of this puzzle so we can have a fulsome picture and account as to exactly what took place here."The driver was heading south on busy Yonge Street around 1:30 p.m. Monday, the streets crowded with people enjoying the first warm day of spring, when the van jumped onto the sidewalk.Ali Shaker, who was driving near the van at the time, told Canadian broadcast outlet CP24 that the driver appeared to be moving deliberately through the crowd at more than 30 mph."He just went on the sidewalk," a distraught Shaker said. "He just started hitting everybody, man. He hit every single person on the sidewalk. Anybody in his way he would hit."Another witness, Peter Kang, told CTV News that the driver did not seem to make any effort to stop."If it was an accident he would have stopped," Kang said. "But the person just went through the sidewalk. He could have stopped."Video broadcast on several Canadian outlets showed police arresting the driver, dressed in dark clothes, after officers surrounded him and his rental Ryder van several blocks from where the incident occurred in the North York neighborhood of northern Toronto. He appeared to make some sort of gesture at the police with an object in his hand just before they ordered him to lie down on the ground and took him away.Witness Phil Zullo said that he saw police arresting the suspect and people "strewn all over the road" where the incident occurred."I must have seen about five, six people being resuscitated by bystanders and by ambulance drivers," Zullo said. "It was awful. Brutal."Police shut down the Yonge and Finch intersection following the incident and Toronto's transit agency suspended service on the subway line running through the area. The stretch of Yonge Street where the victims were struck was expected to stay blocked off for several days as police continue what is likely to be a lengthy investigation. Most businesses in the area were closed.Trudeau on Monday expressed his sympathies for those involved."We should all feel safe walking in our cities and communities," he said. "We are monitoring this situation closely, and will continue working with our law enforcement partners around the country to ensure the safety and security of all Canadians."The incident prompted police to beef up security and close several streets around the Air Canada Centre on Monday night for the Toronto-Boston NHL playoff game. Police tweeted that similar road closures may be in effect for the Toronto Raptors NBA playoff game on Wednesday night.The incident occurred as Cabinet ministers from the major industrial countries were gathered in Canada to discuss a range of international issues in the run-up to the G7 meeting near Quebec City in June. Canadian Public Safety Minister Ralph Goodale called the incident a "horrific attack" and said the G7 foreign ministers extended their condolences.___Associated Press writers Ben Fox in Miami, and Rob Gillies in Ocho Rios, Jamaica, contributed to this report.------

GUELPH — Police have laid 12 new charges against a practitioner of traditional Chinese medicine, accused last year of sexually assaulting several patients.
The Guelph Police Service says Sherman Lai, who also performed acupuncture, was charged with one count of sexual assault in October 2017.
Between November 2017 and April 2018, the 58-year-old was charged with 16 more counts of sexual assault, two counts of assault with a weapon, two counts of possession of a weapon for a dangerous purpose, and two counts of uttering death threats.
Police say Lai was charged on Tuesday with one additional count of sexual assault, six more counts of assault, one more count of assault with a weapon, three counts of uttering threats and one count of forcible confinement.
