Question: Canada's national anthem gets an inclusive update

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

Canada has taken steps to make its national anthem “O Canada” more inclusive. Lawmakers passed a bill this week changing the line “true patriot love in all thy sons command,” to “true patriot love in all of us command.” “It’s a kind of inclusive, embracing turn of phrase,” says former Prime Minister Kim Campbell. She’s one…

SARAH HANLON/ 24 HOURS
There's a lot to listen to, let our earphones do the work
ARCADE FIRE: Cover mind games and art
Covering songs seems to be all the rage these days. While some critics look down on artists reimagining someone else's work, others argue it's actually harder to make an already-established song, well, sing in a new way.Case in point: A month into the Infinite Content tour for their album Everything Now (which hit #1 on the Billboard top 200 last week), Montreal rockers Arcade Fire are in the headlines for copying too! The notoriously creative band gave a pre-Lollapalooza show at Chicago's Metro that has everyone fired up over its John Lennon Mind Games cover.Off the heels of a killer three-and-a-half-hour Foo Fighters concert, Arcade Fire brought the heat, seamlessly mixing Radiohead's Karma Police and David Bowie's Oh! You Pretty Things with the Lennon classic before finishing the epic mash-up with their own song Wake-Up. The band's previous tour, Reflektor, came with city specific cover songs: ABBA in Stockholm, the Ramones in New York City, Kansas in Kansas City, you get the drift.They're also making headlines for a marketing campaign featuring fake concert dress codes, outlandish riders and a website that will freak out anyone under 30 years old (think Windows 3.1). The Lennon cover is rare for the group (minus the Reflektor tour) and has many wondering if this will be Arcade's return to 'cover art.'Their new album Everything Now is everything we need now; fresh but nostalgic, upbeat yet emo, it's a little disco, a little dance and a little deep house - and it's pure Arcade Fire.In honour of the Canadian "cover band" and their awesome new album, I caught myself up with some other artists reinventing songs.
Catch Arcade Fire in concert: Quebec City, Montreal and Ottawa in September; Edmonton, Calgary and Vancouver in October and Toronto in November.

Ruth B celebrates Bublé
Juno Award winner for Breakthrough Artist of the Year Ruth B was back to her covering ways recently at the Governor General Performing Arts Awards to celebrate fellow Canadian crooner Michael Bublé with a moving tribute to his song Home that really should hit the studio. It was softer, sweeter and prettier than the jazzy and aggressively poppy original. The 22-year-old's first album, Safe Haven, just went gold. Ruth B is currently touring across Canada and will make a stop in Toronto to perform at the Canadian Songwriters Hall of Fame festivities on Saturday, September 23rd at Massey Hall, to help honour this year's four celebrated inductees, Beau Dommage, Bruce Cockburn, Neil Young and Stéphane Venne. Hopefully, we get another Canadian-on-Canadian cover out of it.
2Cellos goes Game of Thrones
Are you jonesing for a #GoT fix before the next episode? Check out 2Cellos gorgeously intense version of the opening theme, which is accompanied by the London Symphony Orchestra, which brings the heavy strings melodies alive in a way that gets your heart pumping harder than the last episode. In fact, this cover is more fun than the original. It's got a fuller and more fantastical sweeping pace. The instrumental duo is set to release a Deluxe Edition of their album Score on August 25th, including a CD/DVD featuring their live Sydney Opera House concert.Also worth your time is the duo's recent haunting release of the Luis Fonsi summer hit, Despacito - its sexy sound will get you moving. These string covers are great ways to get mileage out of old favourites. In fact, my editor actually prefers the instrumental version of Despacito than the original.Tip: they also serve as awesome background music for social media videos.Featured on Score is music from Schindler's List, Lord of the Rings, Braveheart, Breakfast at Tiffany's, The Godfather, Titanic and more.
Rihanna's Same Ol'Mistakes is an Ol'song?!
I'd never badmouth Riri but I have to say, I kind of like the lesser-known original New Pers, Same Old Mistakes, written and performed by the Australian psychedelic band Tame Impala just as much as her hit version from ANTI. They sound so similar; hypnotically high vocals paired with low heavy synth makes for a very vibe-y tune. But everything Rihanna touches turns to gold but major disappointment for producer Diplo, who recently told GQ that despite trying to collaborate with Rihanna many times, she has turned him down, saying his music is "like a reggae song at an airport."Ouch!

Dixie Chicks cover Beyoncé's Daddy Lessons
When rumours that the Dixie Chicks would perform this funky horn-filled country track from Beyoncé's album Lemonade alongside her at the Country Music Awards this year, Billboard reported that the song hit # 1. They didn't disappoint - the quartet version has more twang, spirit and an energy you can only get from having powerful women create together. Just having the 'Chicks'for harmonies alone amplifies the track. After releasing a studio version of the song with Bey, the Dixie Chicks took it on their MMXVII world tour, their first return to U.S. concert stages in 10 years. They also took cameras with them and are releasing their highly anticipated live tour DVD, DCX MMXVI, on September 1. Pre-orders opened up last week in tandem with the VEVO premiere of the performance for Not Ready to Make Nice.
HEALTH gives New Order's classic Blue Monday a workout
For New Order fans, you can't really improve upon the iconic English '80s rock band's classic track.New Order was formed from the remaining members of the post-punk pioneers Joy Division, after the suicide of their young lead singer Ian Curtis on a Sunday night (Blue Monday references the tragic day after). It is the bestselling 12'of all time. Its mix of cold-wave angst with disco and drum machines created a soundtrack for a generation. Not an easy song to tackle but HEALTH has shown this track the respect and homage it deserves while delivering something new. It has a darker, grittier feel and an echo-y backtrack that makes it feel new while staying true.

Mayer/Mendes mash-up Canadian teen heartthrob Shawn Mendes is climbing the charts yet again with his hit single There's Nothing Holdin'Me Back. And there is nothing holding him back from gushing about his mentor John Mayer. Toronto brought the two together this past spring at Mayer's concert where they performed a mash-up of their songs Mercy and In Your Atmosphere. Both songs, unfortunately, lost all their power ballad strength when the two focused on harmonizing on this mix-up of a mash-up but Mendes'solo on There's Nothin'Holding Me Back is worth attention. I'll take a Mayerless Mendes any day but it is nice to see Mayer being a mentor to the 19-year-old Canadian sweetheart.

Tove Lo performs Homemade Dynamite with Lorde at Osheaga Music and Arts Festival
Can you cover your own song? Swedish singer-song writer Tove Lo helped Lorde write her latest album Melodrama, including this hit. After performing her own set at the 12th edition of the Montreal music festival two weekends ago, Lorde welcomed Tove Lo on stage during her headlining set performing Homemade Dynamite together to the crowd's surprise. Both sound better in the studio and Tove Lo's Tigertown remix of her song Vibes is a much better listen. It's faster and harder than the version on her Lady Wood album - which makes a great workout track. Lorde is on the list of performers for the upcoming MTV Video Music Awards with Miley Cyrus, Ed Sheeran, Fifth Harmony, The Weeknd, Thirty Seconds to Mars and Shawn Mendes.

Question: New Orleans Saints 2018 roster rankings: No. 13 Sheldon Rankins

Represent this text to find a news title for it

We're ranking the New Orleans Saints' top players for the seventh consecutive offseason. We'll publish a new player each weekday as we inch closer to training camp.
Seven players from last year's list no longer reside on the team's roster: No. 7 Kenny Vaccaro, No. 9 Willie Snead, No. 10 Zach Strief, No. 11 Adrian Peterson, No. 13 Nick Fairley, No. 14 Delvin Breaux, No. 15 Dannell Ellerbe. And a handful from last year's list didn't make the 2018 version.
That's actually a positive for the Saints.
It's the first time in a few years where I struggled to cut down the list to 20 viable candidates. As opposed to the last couple of offseasons where I nearly couldn't find enough capable players to field a top 20 list.
Predicting Nos. 1 and 2 on the 2018 version should be no brainers. The rest of the list should make for a healthy debate:
No. 13 Sheldon Rankins
Last year's rank: 12
Fan composite ranking: 12
Season: 3; Age: 24; Height: 6-2; Weight: 305
The team's 2016 first-round pick displayed plenty of promise only playing nine games his rookie season. Rankins left the 2017 season not totally thrilled with his sophomore season, but he certainly helped others shine as a regular starter.
Rankins started every game for the Saints in 2017 after a knee injury sidelined him for nearly half of 2016. He also played 812 defensive snaps, ranking 13th in the league among defensive linemen.
Rankins' 2017 statistics stagnated, though.
He tallied four sacks and 20 total tackles his first season, but only two sacks and 26 total tackles in 2017. His most memorable play occurred when he intercepted a pass off Tyrod Taylor and nearly scored a touchdown in the Saints' romp at Buffalo on Nov. 12.
Rankins feels like the expectations for him are to play like the Rams' Aaron Donald given their similar draft slots. Any interceptions from Rankins would be nice, but the Saints hope Rankins' third season can be filled with disruption even if the numbers aren't eye-popping.
He should continue to be an every-down defensive line with Tyeler Davison and David Onyemata finding plenty of snaps.

D’Montre Wade is a former star high school running back who converted to corner in college. He redshirted in the 2013 season to learn his new position. In 2014 he started 10 games at cornerback for the Racers.
His production has seen a steady increase following his redshirt year all the way up to his senior year. That year Wade was quite keen at getting his hands on the football.
Leading up to the 2018 draft Wade failed to impress when given the opportunity. At the Senior Bowl he was routinely beat in 1-on-1 drills and even had a few missed opportunities during the game. Given the leap in competition I’m willing to give him the benefit of the doubt on that one.
Wade has the height, weight, and speed combination that make him an intriguing prospect. In the NFL he is going to have to focus on his recovery after his initial bump in press coverage. Right now I think the most impressive aspect of his game is his body control when it comes to intercepting and defending passes.
Stats (via Murray State)
2014: 64 tackles, 1 tackle for loss, 5 passes defended, 1 interception.
2015: 29 tackles, 0.5 tackles for loss, 9 passes defended.
2016: 50 tackles, 1 tackle for loss, 18 passes defended, 3 interceptions.
2017: 33 tackles, 2 tackles for loss, 13 passes defended, 6 interceptions.
Combine results (via NFL Draft Scout) Height: 5-foot-11
Weight: 206
40-yard dash: 4.57
20-yard dash: 2.68
10-yard dash: 1.61
225-pound bench: 15
Vertical: 35 1/2
Broad jump: 10
20-yard shuttle: 4.40
Three-cone drill: 7.07 (Pro day) Highlights Fit with the Kansas City Chiefs The Chiefs managed to get two of the top small school prospects at corner following this years NFL Draft. They drafted University of Central Arkansas corner Tremon Smith, but in undrafted free agency they found a diamond in the rough in D’Montre Wade. The Chiefs are lacking talent at the outside corner position and it isn’t exactly a secret. Bringing in talented small school prospects, especially in undrafted free agency, can yield huge rewards for the Chiefs. Maybe after a year or two of adjusting to the pro game, Wade will be ready for the spotlight and a starting job. In the meantime, Wade has a long way to go. I wouldn’t be shocked if the Chiefs end up designating him as a practice squad player and developing him from there. His experience as a return man could be valuable enough for the Chiefs to keep him around on the active roster, but only if they feel his development is well enough along that he could start in a pinch.

Question: Houston 18-year-old arrested on charges of trying to aid IS

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

HOUSTON (AP) — A Houston 18-year-old has been arrested and charged with illegally distributing explosive-making information and attempting to support the Islamic State organization.
The U.S. Justice Department said Monday that Kaan Sercan Damlarkaya, a U.S. citizen, was arrested on Dec. 8 following an undercover FBI operation. A statement says Damlarkaya said he intended to travel overseas and fight for IS and said he tried to get to Syria twice. He told agents that he would commit a U.S. attack if efforts to travel overseas failed.
It also says Damlarkaya provided to alleged IS supporters a formula for explosive Triacetone Triperoxide and instructions how to use it in a pressure cooker device containing shrapnel.
If convicted, he faces a possible 20-year maximum prison term. The U.S. has designated IS as a terrorist organization.

Five key pieces of evidence led Hillsborough County deputies to a Riverview father who is now accused of killing his teenage daughter.

The tariff talk is stretching into July as the US puts China back in its sights.
US officials will be deciding on over $34 billion in tariffs against Chinese products on Friday. This comes after Donald Trump moved to block China Mobile from offering services in the US over spying concerns.
The US President is also making a vague threat against the WTO, claiming the organization is treating America unfairly and he’s going to ‘do something’ about it.
And Trump is accusing OPEC of manipulating the global crude market as oil prices gain once again. The price of US crude is up to 74.87 a barrel.
Meanwhile, Wall Street is expected to have another win today before it closes early for the July 4th holiday tomorrow. The boost is coming from tech stocks as analysts are expecting positive earnings reports from Silicon Valley next week.

Question: Teachers don't want to be 'food police' of children's lunchboxes: report

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

Teachers say unhealthy food parents put into childrens' lunch boxes was one of the challenges faced and many were reluctant to be the "food police".
An Education Review Office report on good nutrition and physical fitness at schools found the challenges ranged from competitive parents on the sidelines to the food parents gave children to bring to school.
Early childhood centre teachers told the ERO one of the biggest challenges was unhealthy food in children's lunchboxes, and a reluctance to be seen as the "food police".
That was also a concern echoed at the primary and secondary school level, where leaders said the proximity of local dairies and takeaways were often visited by children "or parents provided unhealthy food for their children to eat at school".
Schools also reported parents' own sporting ambitions for their children could have the opposite effect - and put a child off.
"Parents could be competitive and have inappropriate expectations, and some behaved poorly on the sidelines of their childrens' sports games. This behaviour could be discouraging to some children and meant that coaches and managers were not able to give the children their full attention."
The ERO report was commissioned by the Government in 2015 as part of its anti-obesity strategy. It surveyed how well 202 early childhood centres, 46 primary schools and 29 secondary schools were dealing with good policies around food, nutrition and physical activity.
Food and nutrition is part of the school curriculum. Last week, Health Minister Jonathan Coleman and Education Minister Hekia Parata announced the appointment of Professor Grant Schofield as the Ministry of Education's first Chief Education Health and Nutrition Adviser.
Coleman said there were many initiatives under the childhood obesity strategy to help schools, such as Health Promoting Schools which involved the community. Many also had policies such as "water only" schools. However, regulating the contents of children's lunchboxes would be a step too far.
Continued below.

He said it was up to childcare centres to decide how to approach the issue.
"I think once you're telling people what to put in their kids' lunch box, that's quite a step and some parents would find that offensive. I think there's ways of getting messages across rather than sending notes home saying 'don't send them in with a chocolate slice again'. It's actually a parents' prerogative to assemble a balanced diet for children."
Peter Reynolds, the chief executive of the Early Childcare Council, said it was a difficult position.
"Nobody wants to be seen as the food police. Nobody wants to send a note home in red ink telling parents they don't know how to feed their kids.
"But at the same time, most childcare centres will go out of their way to provide nutrition information to families so families have an understanding of what young pre-school age kiddies need to grow and develop."
He said many centres held seminars on affordable healthy food for parents. Some centres cooked for the children themselves, but changes to the Food Act meant more kitchens were closing down because of the extra administrative cost.
The report found secondary schools which put a high emphasis on competition in sports reduced the chances for other students to take part.
That was rejected by Secondary Principals' Association president Mike Williams, the principal of Pakuranga College, who said most schools tried to do both.
"You can do both. Yes, at the top end it is very competitive in secondary schools and some are very, very competitive.
But the majority of schools would be like our school - you want kids to be involved and you want students to try new sports."
The ERO report also found:
• While 87 per cent of early childhood centres were doing well on promoting good health, that dropped to 74 per cent of primary schools and 62 per cent of secondary schools.
• Work demands meant parents were not as involved in the school as in the past, leaving teachers under pressure to coach and manage sports teams.
• Senior secondary students said a lack of time due to study and social demands meant they did not play sports.
• Many schools contracted the tuck shop out to private providers which were "profit-driven" and "tended to be most interested in what would sell" rather than healthy choices.
Williams said most tuck shops offered healthy food and many schools had adopted policies such as banning soft drinks. However, they could not stop students buying from local dairies or takeaways.
Labour's education spokesman Chris Hipkins said it was understandable schools would contract out the tuck shop, but it would mean a decrease in quality.
He was also concerned at the finding students didn't have the time to participate in physical activity.
"It shows how 'high stakes' the pressure around NCEA has become."
CASE STUDY
One of the schools the ERO looked at was Kaiti School in Gisborne.
Nearly all students were Maori or Pacifica and it offered bilingual education in Maori and Tongan.
It got the tick from the ERO for its clear plan on health - and the board of trustees' decision to employ one fulltime sports leader and two part-time sports staff. It also subsidised fees for Saturday sports and specialist sports.
The sports leader mentored other teachers and all teachers took part in sports and physical education - including sessions on keeping safe in the surf, dancing and cycling.

Children with allergies are either being tricked or forced into eating food they can't tolerate by school bullies, a study has revealed.
Kids are suffering from painful allergic reactions and are even being hospitalised because of the bullying trend, Australian researchers said this week.
Students with allergies – which affects one in every 12 children in Australia – are twice as likely to be targeted by bullies and may be considered easy targets because their allergy can isolate them.
'Some of the things include things as scary as being forced to eat the food they're allergic to, or people tricking them into eating food,' Professor Andrew Fong from The University of New South Wales told 7News.

'They can be separated from their peers at schools, and they may not be invited to parties.'
'Kicked, teased, and bullying through social media as well,' he said.
Some parents have turned to home schooling after their children were targeted, researchers said.
The issue has also been a problem in other countries, researchers found.
An ad campaign in the U.S. tries to combat children bullying each other based on food allergies.
'Some of the things include things as scary as being forced to eat the food they're allergic to, or people tricking them into eating food,' Professor Andrew Fong from The University of New South Wales said (pictured)
The issue has also been discussed in the UK's parliament.
Allergy & Anaphylaxis Australia President Maria Said told The Courier Mail the company is aware of this kind of bullying in Australia.
'There is a lack of respect and understanding around allergies generally and, when it comes to children, there can be an element of jealousy – some don't like the special attention focused on the food-allergic children,' she said.

Question: Girona defeats struggling Espanyol 1-0 in Spanish league

MADRID — Girona avoided conceding late this time, holding on to beat Catalan rival Espanyol 1-0 in the Spanish league on Monday.
After allowing injury-time goals in its last two league matches, Girona closed out the game at Espanyol to halt a four-game winless streak in all competitions.
David Timor scored in the first top-flight meeting between the Catalan clubs just before halftime at RCDE Stadium in Barcelona, moving Girona to ninth place.
It was the fourth loss in five league matches for Espanyol, which dropped to 16th in the 20-team standings, near the relegation zone.

MADRID (AP) — Asier Illarramendi scored two second-half goals as Real Sociedad routed Deportivo La Coruna 5-0 to end a four-match winless streak in the Spanish league on Friday.
Willian Jose, Aritz Elustondo and Sergio Canales also scored for Sociedad at Anoeta Stadium.
The hosts hadn't won since a 3-1 result against Sevilla last year.
The winless streak for relegation-wary Deportivo increased to seven matches. Deportivo is 18th in the 20-team standings.
Sociedad moved to 14th place. Its next league game is at defending champion Real Madrid.

Question: Prosecutors: Alabama man made plan to kidnap woman, daughter

represent this text to find a news title for it

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (AP) — Prosecutors say an Alabama man who planned to hire someone to kidnap a woman and her 14-year-old daughter has pleaded guilty to child sex-trafficking charges.
A U.S. Department of Justice statement says 48-year-old Brian David “Blaze” Boersma was arrested in October by undercover FBI agents. The Decatur man believed they would kidnap the mother and child and had given them more than $3,000. Boersma entered his guilty pleas before U.S. District Judge R. David Proctor on Monday.
The statement says Boersma boasted to his co-worker that he would sell the girl to a pimp he knew in Memphis, Tennessee, who offered $8,000.
A sentencing date has not been set. U.S. Attorney Jay E. Town says Boersma will spend most, if not all, of the remainder of his life in prison.

Question: At Least 18 Dead After Gunmen Seize A Cafe For Hours In Burkina Faso

Gunmen stormed an upscale cafe overnight in Burkina Faso's capital, Ouagadougou, strafing the building with bullets and barricading themselves inside for hours. By the time security forces reclaimed the restaurant around dawn Monday, at least 18 people had been killed and eight others wounded, according to local authorities.
The West African nation's communications minister, Remis Dandjinou, told reporters Monday that by daybreak, two of the attackers had been killed and several foreign nationals were among the dead. In separate statements, officials in Paris and Ankara confirmed the victims include a French citizen and Turkish citizen, while another Turk was injured in the violence.
While Burkinabe officials blamed Islamist militants for the attack on the Turkish cafe, no one group immediately claimed responsibility.
"I salute the bravery of our security and defense forces whose engagement allowed us to neutralize the terrorists," Burkinabe President Roch Marc Christian Kabore said in a statement, as translated by CNN.
"The struggle against terrorism is a lengthy fight," he added. "That is why I am calling for vigilance, solidarity and unity of the whole nation to face up to the cowardice of our enemies."
In a news conference Monday, Dandjinou detailed the night's bloody events, which opened when he says about three to four militants rolled up to the cafe on motorcycles around 9 p.m. local time. They opened fire on an outside seating area outside then moved indoors, where The New York Times notes a family had been celebrating a 9-year-old boy's birthday.
The newspaper reports the boy was hospitalized with injuries from the attack.
For Burkinabes, the attack on Aziz Istanbul cafe, which is popular with foreigners, prompts bitter memories of another bloody episode just over 18 months ago. In January last year, militants conducted an hours-long raid on a luxury hotel and a cafe just blocks away from Aziz Istanbul, ultimately killing some 30 people before being dislodged by security forces.
Al-Qaida in the Islamic Maghreb, a militant group based in the region, claimed responsibility for that attack — as well as another deadly assault just months before in neighboring Mali.
Islamist groups have been active for years in the Sahel region, which includes Mali and Burkina Faso. As groups linked to al-Qaida have carried out attacks in the area, the Times points out that the United Nations peacekeeping mission to Mali "has become one of the most dangerous in the world."
The French government — which controlled Burkina Faso, then called Upper Volta, as a colony until 1960 — says President Emmanuel Macron met with Kabore on Monday to discuss the circumstances of the latest attack.
The pair of leaders also reaffirmed their commitment to the formation of an international security force in the Sahel region to "continue the fight against terrorist groups."

Question: U.S. consumer confidence rebounds; new home sales rise

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

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. consumer confidence rebounded in April and new home sales increased more than expected in March, pointing to underlying strength in the economy despite signs that growth slowed in the first quarter.
FILE PHOTO: An advertisement for two-family homes is seen outside an oceanside community in the Rockaway area of the Queens borough of New York, September 16, 2015. REUTERS/Shannon Stapleton/File Photo
Other data on Tuesday also showed house prices increasing solidly in February. Strong consumer confidence and rising house prices bode well for an acceleration in consumer spending in the second quarter after it braked sharply at the start of the year.
The Conference Board said its consumer confidence index increased to a reading of 128.7 this month from 127.0 in March. Consumers’ short-term expectations also improved, with the share of consumers expecting their incomes to decline over the coming months reaching its lowest level since December 2000.
U.S. financial markets were little moved by the data.
In a separate report, the Commerce Department said new home sales increased 4.0 percent to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 694,000 units last month. February’s sales pace was revised up to 667,000 units from the previously reported 618,000 units.
Data for January was also revised to show sales unchanged instead of declining 4.7 percent. Economists polled by Reuters had forecast new home sales, which account for 11 percent of housing market sales, rising 1.9 percent to a pace of 630,000 units last month.
New home sales are drawn from permits and tend to be volatile on a month-to-month basis. They jumped 8.8 percent from a year ago.
March’s surge in new home sales and upward revisions to January and February sales data will probably not change economists’ expectations that residential investment declined in the first quarter.
Gross domestic product estimates for the first quarter are below a 2 percent annualized rate. The economy grew at a 2.9 percent rate in the fourth quarter.
CHRONIC SHORTAGE
The housing market is struggling with a chronic shortage of properties that is boosting home prices and weighing on sales at the lower end of the market.
Rising mortgage rates and moderate wage growth are also making home purchasing less affordable, especially for first-time buyers who account for less than a third of transactions.
Sales in the West soared 28.3 percent to their highest level since December 2006. They rose 0.8 percent in the South, which accounts for the bulk of new home sales. Sales plunged 54.8 percent in the Northeast and dropped 2.4 percent in the Midwest.
The median new house price increased 4.8 percent to $337,200 in March from a year ago. Last month, there were 301,000 new homes on the market, unchanged from February.
At March’s sales pace it would take 5.2 months to clear the supply of houses on the market, down from 5.4 months in February. About two-thirds of the houses sold last month were either under construction or yet to be built.
Another report on Tuesday showed the S&P CoreLogic Case-Shiller composite index of home prices in 20 metropolitan areas increased 6.8 percent in the 12 months to February after rising 6.4 percent in January.

Question: Millions to fight food industry sway, from a snack bar CEO

Represent the article to find a fitting news title

NEW YORK (AP) — A $25 million pledge to fight the food industry’s influence on public health is coming from a surprising source — the CEO of a snack bar maker.
Kind founder Daniel Lubetzky says he’s pledging his own money to create a group called “Feed the Truth” dedicated to revealing corporate influence in the nutrition field, with activities like education campaigns and investigative journalism.
The move underscores the division between older “Big Food” companies and newer businesses that market themselves as wholesome alternatives aligned with health advocates. Kind, known for its fruit and nut bars, touts its use of “real” ingredients and has proven deft at mixing marketing with nutrition issues.
A public health and ethics expert not involved with the group says much depends on how it is set up, and that one tactic to neutralize potential critics is to engage them.
Three high-profile health and nutrition experts have been enlisted to name Feed the Truth’s board, which will hire an executive director. Lubetzky said he and Kind will have no involvement, and the group will be free to scrutinize the company. “We don’t have any skeletons in our closet,” he said.
Since Kind was launched in 2004, the company’s annual revenue has grown to $673.4 million, according to market researcher Euromonitor.
The company was in the spotlight after the Food and Drug Administration warned that it was inappropriately using the term “healthy” on packaging. Kind launched a petition asking the FDA to update its guidelines, saying the fat in almonds and avocados shouldn’t count against it, and declared victory when the agency said last year it was re-evaluating.
Lubetzky cited that experience and recent reporting by The Associated Press and The New York Times revealing the food industry’s influence on nutrition science for his decision to create Feed the Truth. Kind said he will sign a letter of intent to donate $2.5 million a year for the next 10 years.
The irony of such a group being established by a snack bar CEO is not lost on Marion Nestle, a professor of food studies at New York University who is helping nominate the board. She said she usually keeps industry at arm’s length, but found Lubetzky “very persuasive” and felt Feed the Truth could raise awareness about corporate influence in nutrition research.
Deb Eschmeyer, a senior policy adviser on nutrition under the Obama administration, said the project reflects the new ways companies and executives are engaging with the public. Michael Jacobson, executive director of the advocacy group Center for Science in the Public Interest, said the money being pledged in advance should help give the group independence.
Kind said the three advisers are not being paid, though it covered Nestle’s travel costs for a meeting. The company said it would not be involved once the board is established.
Leigh Turner, a professor at the University of Minnesota’s School of Public Health, said that whether the group remains free from Lubetzky and Kind’s influence remains to be seen. He noted that engaging critics is one way for companies to neutralize them, and that the group could be a boon to Kind’s image.
“This is a business that wants to present itself as a healthy alternative to candy bars,” Turner said.
As an example of how Kind presents itself, the company launched a “Nutrition Collective” for dietitians last year, which it said was for discussion of major public health issues. A signup page said members would not be paid, but being involved included letting people how “Kind can be a part of their new lifestyle.”
Although Feed the Truth may boost Kind’s image, Lubetzky said that wasn’t the goal.
“I would hope that people say, OK, these guys are doing the right thing for society, I’m going to be more loyal to the brand,” Lubetzky said.

Georgia special
The special election in Georgia to fill HHS Secretary Tom Price’s old congressional seat could end with a historic Democratic upset. The Sixth District seat has been held by a Republican continuously since Newt Gingrich won it in 1978, but changing demographics and what’s known as a “jungle primary” are giving Democrat Jon Ossoff a shot at winning today’s vote.
Georgia tea leaves
Spanning wealthier and Republican-leaning suburbs north of Atlanta, Tom Price’s old seat is just the kind of place Democrats would love to pull off an upset. They’d point to it as evidence of excitement in their base, and support from the upper-income Republicans and college graduates who eluded them in 2016. But winning will be tough. We look at data from the 50,000 early votes already cast to gauge the contest.

Question: Luis Gutierrez: Dems must fight border wall funding

(CNN) For Rep. Luis Gutierrez, there is no question of whether Democrats should vote against a budget bill that has funding for President Donald Trump's border wall.
"The Democratic caucus in the House of Representatives and the US Senators would basically have to turn their back on a key constituent group right, which are Latinos, and on fairness and justice, because it's immoral to talk about that wall," Gutierrez told David Axelrod on the "The Axe Files," a podcast from the University of Chicago Institute of Politics and CNN.
The House approved a spending bill at the end of July with $1.6 billion allocated towards a wall on the US-Mexico border. Gutierrez argued that his party must fight against this piece of the appropriations bill with the same fervor as they would for any of their other platform issues.
"Democrats have to be consistent," he said. "You know if this were for defunding Planned Parenthood we wouldn't even have a question of Democrats sitting down and negotiating for that budget. If this were to eliminate same-sex marriage, we wouldn't have a conversation as Democrats whether we were going to vote for that budget."
"If it's for deportation and splitting up families and destroying the 'Dreamers,' Democrats have to say that's a line we won't cross either. That's a key fundamental value of our Democratic Party," Gutierrez continued. "And you know and I think we're going to meet that challenge. I really do believe we're going to meet that challenge."

PHOENIX — State lawmakers are moving to force people getting unemployment insurance checks back to work by changing the law about what jobs they have to take — or forego the payments.
Under current law, someone collecting benefits must accept “suitable’’ work. But the Department of Economic Security is required to consider various factors, including the “risk involved to the individual’s health, safety and morals.’’
Other considerations include physical fitness for the work, experience, prior earnings and how long the person has been unemployed.
And DES also has to figure in the prospects of the person being able to secure local work in the individual’s customary occupation as well as the distance to the new job.
Under SB 1398, however, all that would become legally irrelevant after someone has been collecting benefits for four weeks. At that point the person would have to take a job — any job — where the employer is offering to pay someone at least 20 percent more than they are collecting in benefits.
And that’s not much.
Under Arizona law, individuals who are laid off or fired through no fault of their own are entitled to collect payments equal to one-half of what they were earning for up to 26 weeks. The money comes out of a special funds financed by premiums paid by employers.
But here’s the thing: Arizona law limits benefits to $240 a week, no matter how much the person was earning. Only Mississippi has a lower cap.
And that means someone would have to take any work that pays at least $288 a week.
Sen. Steve Smith, R-Maricopa, the sponsor of the legislation, acknowledged that translates out to $7.20 an hour, less than the current minimum wage of $10.50.
And he said no one is expected to work for less than the minimum.
But it still leaves open the possibility someone could be forced to take part-time work of 28 hours a week or more at the minimum wage, no matter how much they were earning before they were let go, or end up with no benefits at all.
Smith’s bill does have a carrot.
It would require DES to set up a return-to-work program where those collecting unemployment insurance could become an apprentice or intern at certain companies for up to six weeks.
The sweetener is they could continue to collect their weekly checks.
And Smith companies would benefit, too.
“They can effectively recruit new people to come in and work,’’ he said, with the money for paying the workers coming from the Federal Workforce Opportunity Act.
But it was the back-to-work-or-lose-your-benefits language that caused the most heartburn among foes.
Rep. Mitzi Epstein, D-Tempe, said it forces those getting benefits into a difficult situation by making factors like risks to safety and health irrelevant.
“Will I be in endangered if I go on this job?’’ she said.
“Am I not physically fit enough for this job?’’ Epstein continued. “Will this job go completely against my moral fiber about what I think is right or wrong?’’
All that, she said, are relevant questions which is why the law is worded the way it is now.
“I think the state should not be forcing people off the crutch (of jobless benefits) and into a much worse situation,’’ Epstein said.
Smith said there’s a simple solution to avoid being offered unsuitable work: Don’t apply for such jobs in the first place.
If there’s no offer on the table, he said, someone collecting benefits can’t be accused of refusing to take it.
But it’s not that simple.
DES lobbyist Kathy Ber pointed out existing Arizona law requires those on unemployment insurance to engage in “a systematic and sustained effort to obtain work during at least four days of the week.’’ That same law mandates the person make at least one job contact per day on each of those four days.
Smith was unsympathetic to the possibility that someone who has been collecting benefits for at least four weeks could be forced to take a job that, until now, DES has considered unsuitable.
“You’re supposed to go out and look for a job,’’ he said, with the benefits simply to provide a financial bridge while people are doing that.
“We shouldn’t say, ‘Pretty please, here’s a job, would you please take it?’ ‘’ Smith continued. “If you’re offered a job that pays you more than your benefit, you should take it.’’
That also is the attitude of Rep. Jeff Weninger, R-Chandler, part of owner a firm that runs Dilly’s Deli which has several sandwich shops as well as Floridino’s Pizza and Pasta.
Like all employers, Weninger pays into the account that funds unemployment benefits. Premiums range from less than 1 percent of the worker’s first $7,000 of wages to nearly 13 percent, with the actual rate dependent on how often a company lays off or fires a worker without cause.
Weninger said he has close to 100 employees.
“I’ve paid a ton of money into this,’’ he said, blasting “this notion that the government or employers or everybody has to take care of someone cradle to the grave.’’
If SB 1398 becomes law it would have no immediate impact on how much employers pay. But DES officials said if fewer people overall are collecting, that leaves more money in the special account that finances the benefits, opening the door for future rate decreases.
That account was depleted during the recession when the state’s jobless rate topped 11 percent, with DES having to borrow money from the federal government.
The current unemployment rate is now 4.8 percent. And DES reports that the fund hit nearly $571.6 million this past June 30, up from $332.7 million a year earlier.

SAN DIEGO — No matter which political party they hail from, immigration “solutions” usually come in three varieties: half-baked, hateful and hideous.
You’ll find all of the above as Americans from across the fruited plain refuse to let their ignorance about the issue stop them from putting in their 2 cents about how to solve the crisis at hand: wanton separation of families at the U.S.-Mexico border.
People also have lots to say about the bigger issue — how to secure the border, legalize the undocumented, provide a workforce to do jobs that Americans think are beneath them, etc. Everyone is an engineer, convinced that their plan is best.
A reader asked: “What are your ideas regarding this issue?” Another demanded to know: “TALK IS CHEAP, doesn’t cost a [expletive] thing. What is your fix to ILLEGAL immigration?” Another said: “I would find it helpful to read your thoughts on how to handle the situation at our border.”

I am often asked for my own solution, and I hate it. While it’s true that my vision is clearer than most because I’m not beholden to either political party, my ideas are no more valuable than anyone else’s. Besides, I’m not selling anything. My goal is to get you to think about what you support or oppose.
Sure, I have a 20-point plan to fix our immigration system. Doesn’t everyone? Ideas, we have plenty of.
What we need is honesty. The immigration debate is broken because it is mired in lies — from the right, left and center. If we don’t talk straight about how we got here, we’ll never create the immigration system that our country deserves.
To get there, Americans will need to:
— Keep refugee families together and give them hearings even if it ultimately means deporting the entire family unit;
— Reform legal immigration not by giving a leg up to the skilled and educated but by tying it more closely to labor needs;
— Limit the family reunification policy to the spouse, children, parents and siblings of a U.S. citizen;
— Resist nativist attempts to cut legal immigration and instead increase it from about 1 million annually to 3 million — which is still less than 1 percent of the total U.S. population;
— Apply asylum laws equally so that brown-skinned refugees from Honduras have the same shot as light-skinned refugees from Syria;
— Secure the border not with a 12th-century wall but with cutting-edge surveillance equipment, tunnel detection and improved roads;
— Deploy National Guard troops to the U.S.-Mexico border sparingly, and only to support Border Patrol agents;
— Continue to deport those in the country illegally but preserve discretion to allow some of the undocumented to stay;
— Create a path to earned legal status (not U.S. citizenship) for illegal immigrants who have lived here for at least 10 years and pass background checks;
— Give permanent legal status to the estimated 700,000 recipients of Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) in exchange for one year of community service;
— Ban benefits for legalized immigrants and their children (no welfare, food stamps, subsidized housing, etc.);
— Allow the legalized to become U.S. citizens, as long as they put in the effort and the process isn’t automatic;
— Scrap unlawful quotas that require immigration agents to deport about 400,000 illegal immigrants annually;
— Stop counterproductive efforts to deputize local police to enforce federal immigration law;
— Create a tamper-proof identification card for all Americans to carry so employers know who is eligible to work;
— Eliminate the exemption in E-Verify that applies to the No. 1 employer of illegal immigrants: the American household;
— Repair the 1986 Immigration Reform and Control Act, which bars employers from “knowingly” hiring illegal immigrants, by removing the word “knowingly”;
— Create a “three strikes” law for employers of illegal immigrants: First offense, a warning; second, a $10,000 fine; third, five days in jail;
— Invest in Mexican states that send immigrants by using tax incentives to encourage U.S. companies to create jobs there so fewer people come here;
— Parent better by giving our kids chores, requiring after-school and summer jobs, and creating a work ethic so they take jobs from illegal immigrants.

Question: Resources For Educators To Use In The Wake Of Charlottesville

Represent this text to find a news title for it

How should educators confront bigotry, racism and white supremacy? The incidents in Charlottesville, Va., this past weekend pushed that question from history to current events.
One teacher wondering aloud about his role is Derek Weimer. He taught James Alex Fields Jr., the man charged with murdering a woman and injuring multiple others by driving his car into a crowd of anti-racist marchers this weekend.
Weimer says he taught Fields in three classes at Cooper High School in Union, Ky. As NPR reported, he told member station WVXU reporter Bill Rinehart:
Weimer says Fields was intelligent and didn't cause trouble. But he says the quiet boy was also deeply into Adolf Hitler and white supremacy. Weimer says he did his best to steer Fields away from those interests and thought he had succeeded in doing so. On hearing about the incident in Charlottesville, Weimer said he felt that he failed as a teacher.
For 40 years, the nonprofit Facing History and Ourselves has been training teachers to confront racism and bigotry. By studying the moral decisions facing people at historical moments, from Reconstruction to Kristallnacht to the civil rights era, they hope "to empower students to work against bigotry and injustice or improper uses of power," says Roger Brooks, president and CEO. "We sum everything up by saying people make choices and choices make history."
Studies show that the curriculum produces academic, social and emotional gains in students. A time like this, says Brooks, is the ultimate teachable moment:
"There's a whole lot teachers can slow down and unpack with their students rather than get completely caught up in the emotion of the moment."
Indeed, just hours after the attack, teachers were sharing resources online, and we heard from more after reaching out in our newsletter. Here are some resources and ideas for the fast-approaching school year.
Just starting out
More than 80 percent of public school teachers are white, while half of all students are people of color. Some teachers may never have directly talked about race or racism, particularly with younger children. Brooks suggests they start by making an "identity chart". This is a way to find commonalities as well as celebrate differences.
Diverse books: Some teachers will introduce topics of racism, civil rights and diversity, especially to younger students, through books. Here is a curated list of 50 social justice books from the nonprofit Teaching for Change. Here is a second, broken down by grade level, by The National Network of State Teachers of the Year.
Teaching Tolerance has lesson plans for students as young as kindergarten that cover bias and social justice.
Historical background
The Graduate Student Coalition for Liberation at The University of Virginia in Charlottesville published a syllabus on Medium that includes primary and secondary historical resources on the local history of segregationism, as well as the urban renewal that displaced African-Americans in the city. There is also background on the dispute over the statue of Confederate general Robert E. Lee that was the focal point of the rally this past weekend.
Facing History and Ourselves is an evidence-based social studies curriculum for middle and high school students that grounds discussions of racism and prejudice in students' own moral dilemmas.
American Federation for Teachers president, Randi Weingarten, shared some collections of lesson plans from AFT's Share My Lesson platform: on racial profiling and stereotyping, on civil rights and social justice, on bullying and helping children cope with traumatic events.
Ripped from the headlines
The Atlantic contributing writer Melinda Anderson created the hashtag #CharlottesvilleCurriculum on Twitter to serve as an ongoing list of resources to teach responsively to current events. Sources highlighted include the Equal Justice Initiative and the Citizenship and Social Justice Curriculum.
To help make sense of the news, the Critical Media Project of the University of Southern California offers lesson plans and resources for talking about media literacy as it relates to race, ethnicity and identity.
If you have more to add, we'd love to hear from you @npr_ed on Twitter.

Question: Boys' hockey preview: Biddeford seeks return to past glory

Represent the article to find a fitting news title:

BIDDEFORD — They return 11 seniors. That fact alone used to mean Biddeford High would be a sure favorite in boys’ hockey.
But these are different times. No longer are there 45 to 50 players in the Tigers’ program, but 24. And it’s been a while since they’ve been a force.
Biddeford, the school that won three Class A state titles in four years (2007, 2008 and 2010), has not been to the state title game since. The Tigers have been ousted in the regional quarterfinals each of the last six years.
Maybe 2017-18 will be different.
“I definitely see this being a lot more successful than the past couple of seasons,” said senior defenseman Liam Turner. “It’s not like we’ve had bad seasons. We just get to the playoffs and it doesn’t go our way.”
Turner and his teammates grew up watching Tigers hockey at Biddeford Ice Arena. “Always came to games whenever I could,” said Turner, who was on hand when Biddeford won the 2010 championship.
Those young fans are now Biddeford players. Repeating the success is not so easy.
“It’s been hard the past couple of years,” said senior forward Colin Lavigne. “We want to win. We’ve always wanted to win, watching (earlier Biddeford teams) win when we were younger.”
The 2011 Tigers were undefeated before being upset, 4-3, by rival Thornton Academy in the regional final.
Since then, it’s been quarterfinal losses, the past four particularly upsetting.
In 2014, the third-seeded Tigers were upset by No. 6 Thornton (it was hardly a case of home ice advantage since Thornton also uses the Biddeford Ice Arena).
The 2015 loss came in overtime to Scarborough, but the 2016 overtime loss was even tougher. Biddeford led Cheverus 4-0, only to lose, 6-5. The 2017 quarterfinals featured another one-goal loss, 3-2, to Scarborough.
Jason Tremblay took over as coach last season. It was a time to build toward, what he hopes, is a true contender this season.
“We have a solid nucleus coming back – 11 seniors, all who saw time last year and understand the coaching staff’s expectations,” said Tremblay, who coached Cape Elizabeth to two Class B state titles (2005-06) before becoming an assistant coach the University of New England.
Tremblay has another credential on his resume – he played hockey for Biddeford High, graduating in 1994. Back then, Tremblay remembers twice as many skaters in a Biddeford uniform. “It’s changed,” he said.
“But we believe we will be right in the mix, and we have a very difficult schedule.”
Biddeford never has shied away from powerhouses – and its tough scheduling has sometimes hurt the Tigers when it comes time to seed teams for the playoffs. This year, Biddeford plays all the top teams twice, including Lewiston, which is gunning for a third straight state championship.
And the two games against Thornton will be a challenge, because the Trojans look improved. That should have the Biddeford Ice Arena rocking, twice.
“That will be fun,” Lavigne said. “The energy level is always high for those games.”
Biddeford also has two Class B powers on its schedule. The Tigers beat the defending Class B South champs, York, 3-0 in the season opener for both teams on Saturday.

We reviewed five standout female athletes that should catch your attention this fall; now it is time for the boys. Here are the five male athletes to keep your eye on as the days shorten and sleeves lengthen.
Jack Nicholson (Grand Haven cross country)
2016’s Area Cross Country Runner of the Year will return to the course this fall with few accolades left to collect. Jack Nicholson cleaned up in his junior season, earning his third All-Conference selection and third All-Regional selection. His final time of 15 minutes, 45 seconds sits at No. 2 all-time at Grand Haven and earned him 13th overall at the Division 1 state championships.
In his senior season, Nicholson will look to join the leaders at the state championship race and return to the top three of the regional race, where he has finished runner-up twice (2014, 2016) and champion once (2015).
Nicholson also took second place twice in the O-K Red in his freshman and sophomore seasons, and will look to rise to the top of a loaded conference one last time.
Cameron Martinez (Muskegon Catholic Central football)
The Muskegon Catholic Central football program is coming off a historic fourth straight Division 8 state championship last fall. The team will have plenty of talent to replace, but sophomore standout Cameron Martinez, who already has scholarship offers from Central Michigan University and the University of Buffalo, will help ease that transition.
The do-it-all playmaker for the Crusaders will be the full-time quarterback on offense, after splitting time with then-senior Trenton Bordeaux last season. Martinez will also double as the team’s starting safety this fall, as well.
His athleticism was on full display last season, as Martinez rushed for 768 yards and 13 touchdowns in 11 games, and added 602 yards passing with 10 touchdowns. On defense, Martinez added 34 solo tackles from his safety position.
With extended playing time and a year of experience at the varsity level, don’t be surprised if Martinez improves on those numbers and becomes one of the most exciting performers in the state this fall. With Martinez at the helm as a playmaker on offense and defense, the Crusaders will be a hard team to slow down in 2017.
Mason Fritz/Grant Ruster (Grand Haven water polo)
We start things off with a twofer. The Grand Haven boys water polo team finished sixth at the state tournament last year after a magical playoff run to a surprise appearance among the top eight teams. For the 2017 season, they return every starter.
Fritz and Grant Ruster were the anchors of last year’s team as juniors, with Fritz leading the charge on offense and Ruster on defense. Both posted high scoring numbers with Fritz able to create his own offense, and Ruster perfecting the swipe and score.
Frtiz has earned All-State accolades already in his career, while Ruster has earned them between the lane lines as a member of the Grand Haven swim team. The dynamic senior pair will share the ball with fellow senior leader Joshua Koornneef for a dangerous three-pronged offensive attack while counting on keeper Matt Beals behind them. If all goes according to plan, count on the Bucs to make a splash come championship weekend.
Connor Lund (Grand Haven boys soccer)
The Grand Haven boys soccer team graduated 12 seniors from the 2016 team that finished second in the O-K Red Conference at 9-2-1 and 12-5-3 overall.
The Buccaneers appear to be in a rebuilding stage, but will likely still be a competitive force within the conference and district. One reason for optimism among the squad is the return of senior forward Connor Lund.
Lund led the Buccaneers in scoring last season and was named All-Conference and All-District for his performances. He will headline a group of Grand Haven forwards that haven’t had much experience at the varsity level. If Lund can continue to be a goal-scoring threat for the Bucs, and add some playmaking highlights to his tape, he’ll help raise the talent around him to a higher level and put Grand Haven in a position to contend for a run at the O-K Red Conference title again.
Noah Bachmann (Grand Haven tennis)
Grand Haven’s 2016 tennis season fell just five points short of an appearance at the state tournament, finishing with 15 points on the day.
Freshman standout Noah Bachmann shocked the regional field by ascending to the semifinal round of the No. 1 singles bracket, eventually falling in a third set to an opponent from Grandville who he had defeated in the regular season.
Despite the disappointing finish, Bachmann’s arrival on the local tennis scene marked a turning point for the Bucs program. Grand Haven graduated three key members of their doubles flights, but returns last year’s No. 2 singles runner up Spencer Sortman and two-time No. 3 singles champion Riley Wilton.
Head coach Chris Wilton viewed last year’s regional flameout as a stepping stone and hopes the tough regional experience will be enough to catapult the 2017 squad into the finals.

Question: Hughton relieved spectacle of Albion's Premier League bow is over and hard work can be on survival bid

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

Chris Hughton is relieved the spectacle of Brighton & Hove Albion's Premier League bow is out of the way and they can concentrate of masterminding their survival.
The Seagulls' return to the top flight after 34 years away has captured global interest since finishing second in the Championship last season.
The fact that their opening game with against title favourites Manchester City stirred up more interest with the match then also being selected for live television broadcast.
The media foray has been intense as anticipation and excitement grew in the build up to the season opener.
But with that now done, manager Hughton is hoping things might calm down as they look to bounce back and pick up their first win against Leicester City on Saturday.
He said: "I must admit there is a little element of that. It is understandable from the history of this club and it being our first game in the Premier League that it was going to be a big occasion.
"I think it would have been a big occasion whoever it was, but the fact it was Manchester City made it bigger. My responsibility is to make sure we are a Premier League team next season and the hard work that goes with that.
"It's a very tough league and what you have to be able to do is park these defeats quickly and look forward to the next one, because there are no easy one that's for sure.
"We have to make sure we have a squad by the end of this window that can compete in this division.
"You can't change the quality sides have got and what we have, but you are reliant on discipline in the side. You are reliant on the shape and of course reliant on getting the breaks."

Steve Bruce was visibly distraught having watched his Aston Villa side slip to their fourth defeat on the spin against play-off chasing Barnsley.
Villa have now lost seven of their last eight matches and are desperately struggling to break free from their 2017 slump.
Adam Armstrong’s penalty and Tom Bradshaw’s brace presented Barnsley with yet another win away from home in what is turning out to be an outstanding season back at Championship level.
Listen to Steve Bruce's verdict following the Barnsley defeat below...
Villa, on the other hand, are now looking over their shoulder agonisingly rather than upwards and will be keen to secure 50 points sooner rather than later.
A tough match at Newcastle United awaits them in front of the dreaded Sky cameras on Monday night.
