Question: Rangers focusing on playing better in Game 4 vs. Canadiens

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

NEW YORK (AP) J.T. Miller and the New York Rangers don’t want to hear about how their struggles on home ice. They’re only focusing on playing better in Game 4 to try to even their first-round series against the Montreal Canadiens.
With their 3-1 loss in Game 3, the Rangers have now dropped six straight at home in the playoffs, dating to the 2015 Eastern Conference finals. New York, which had the league’s best road record this season, finished with just 21 wins at home – the fewest among all the playoff teams.
The Rangers also lost eight straight (0-5-3) at Madison Square Garden down the stretch before winning the final two home games of the regular season.
”We don’t really have time to get caught up in our past record at home,” Miller said Monday after the Rangers practiced in preparation for Tuesday night’s Game 4. ”All we can focus on is a good start tomorrow.”
New York coach Alain Vigneault also stressed he isn’t thinking about the previous postseason struggles at home, including three losses to Tampa Bay in the East finals two years ago, and two to Pittsburgh in the first round last year.
”In 2017 in the playoffs we’ve had one loss (at home),” Vigneault said. ”Different group, different year. Obviously we didn’t pick a good time yesterday to have a very ordinary game, but tomorrow we’ve got an opportunity to make this series 2-2.”
The Rangers were on the verge of taking a 2-0 series lead Friday night before Tomas Plekanec tied it with 18 seconds left and Alexander Radulov won it midway through overtime. Now, after struggling to generate many chances in Game 3, the Rangers need a win Tuesday to avoid going back to Montreal in a 3-1 hole.
A year ago, New York trailed Pittsburgh 2-1 going into Game 4 at home and was shut out 5-0 before the Penguins closed the series in five games en route to winning the Stanley Cup.
”We’re down 2-1 and they have to win two more games,” center Derek Stepan said. ”We’re looking at it as we have to be better, no doubt about it, in all areas of the game. … This thing’s far from over.”
Montreal captain Max Pacioretty expects the Rangers to play with more intensity Tuesday night and believes his team will be ready for that.
”We know their biggest adjustment will be their compete level,” he said. ”We know that they’re going to come out and play their best game of the series. That’s just the way it goes in the playoffs. It’s up to us to try to limit that and also try to stick to our game plan.”
So far, that strategy has prevented the Rangers from using the up-tempo style they’re best at, with the Canadiens clamping down defensively and forcing New York to dump and chase. The Rangers managed just 21 shots on goal in Game 3 and had 21 giveaways, including 10 in the first period.
”It was execution,” right wing Rick Nash said of the turnovers. ”You got to make your passes – can’t be at guys’ feet, can’t be behind guys. It’s gotta be on the tape in order not to turn the puck over.”
Nash also pointed to the poor forechecking as a problem, saying ”there’s too many one-man, two-man forechecking. You need all five guys to get the puck back.”
When that didn’t happen after a dump in, the Canadiens were able to quickly get the puck and move it back the other way. The Rangers also struggled on special teams, giving up two power-play goals and failing to score on their three chances to fall to 0 for 10 in the series.
While Vigneault acknowledged he needs to make some tweaks, he doesn’t envision major changes to the focus on speed and transition that made his team successful this season.
”We’ve been playing a certain style this season that’s permitted us to get into the playoffs,” he said. ”We’ve shown in this series in moments we play that way we’re a hard team to play against.
”You make minor adjustments as far as making a read or a puck decision that could help your game, but as far as the overall way of (changing) how we’ve played or how we’ve had success, obviously that’s not going to happen.”
Vigneault played defenseman Kevin Klein in place of Nick Holden in Game 3, and said he’s contemplating more changes for Game 4.

Question: Conflicted caregiving: When anger, resentment get in the way

Represent this text to find a news title for it

The issue: Overcoming past family difficulties when providing elder care can be challenging.
Why it matters: When people find themselves in the role of a long-term caregiver — and still carry burdens of the past — they need to work through their feelings so resentment, anger and guilt don’t consume them.
Keep in mind: It is not impossible to transform our relationships during the caregiving years. But we have to be aware of how the past might affect how we approach and endure the self-sacrifice that caregiving requires. According to family therapy pioneer Ivan Boszormenyi-Nagy, we subconsciously keep score in our relationships — who has done what for whom over time. As a result, our past interactions with family members powerfully shape our responses to calls for care.
The advice: Barry J. Jacobs, a clinical psychologist and family therapist who writes regularly about caregiving issues for AARP, offers these strategies to help caregivers stay committed despite a hurtful family history.
Heed your past, but try not to be held captive by it. There is survival value in remembering past hurts; it helps us to take steps to protect ourselves from being emotionally or physically injured again. But our recollections aren't trapped in amber; we have the capacity to reinterpret those memories with insights and perspectives gained later in life. For example, an adult child may never forget the slights from a mother who she experienced as emotionally cold. But seeing her mother now made vulnerable by, say, a stroke may help her regard her mother with more empathy and soften some of her painful memories.
Focus on what's positive from the past. Relationships are rarely all bad or good but a mixture of satisfying and frustrating parts. Even if your relationship with an aging parent has been mostly sour, there may be aspects that are positive or at least instructive. For instance, an adult child may have felt put off by her mother but may also have observed how attentive her mother was to her own mother when she was failing toward the end of her life.
Make decisions based on your values, not old scores. Some family members decline to participate in caregiving because they didn't feel loved by the person who now needs care. That refusal feels very much like tit for tat — a narrow kind of justice based on the limitations of one flawed relationship. Other family members agree to participate in caregiving not because they felt loved by the care receiver, but because they look at it in a more big-picture way — they believe we should all help one another.
The bottom line: Living that value through caregiving doesn't necessarily erase the pain of a flawed past relationship. But it affirms that you are not so hamstrung by old hurts that you can't rise above them and be the kind of person you wish your parent, sibling or whomever you're caring for had been.
Take action:
Consider seeing a family therapist

Relatives and family members of some of the 94 mentally ill patients who died last year, hold a candle light vigil organized by South African main opposition party Democratica Alliance (DA) outside the Gauteng Province premier office on February 2, 2017 in Johannesburg.
The last few weeks have been brutal. They have forced me into a reflection about the systems that govern us and how they rely on humans, and therefore the flawed human condition, to govern, to protect and to safeguard the rights of people.
The main story that forced me into this reflection was the Life Esidimeni case. The health ombudsman concluded in his report that, despite expert advice, protests from families and civil society organisations and even legal action, the Gauteng Health Department moved patients who needed 24hour care from a healthcare facility to improperly vetted and inadequately qualified NGO's. This decision led to the deaths of at least 94 people. More than the Nice truck driver terrorist attack. More than the Brussels attack, the Charlie Hebdo attack and the recent Berlin attack all put together. Ninety-four is nearly three times Marikana. All, today, deceased at the hands of the very people who are charged with serving them as some of the most vulnerable in our communities.
This highlighted the simple reality that the fate of many, and importantly the fate of a vulnerable many, is in the hands of people. A fellow country man could be sentenced to death at the hands of officials without a crime, a trial, sentencing or an allowing constitution.
Public service by design, is an act of ultimate love. A love for country, so much so that it is felt as a duty to step up and serve the country, it's prosperity and growth being of primary concern. This love and duty can manifest differently in different parties but that is why we have a democratic system. So that we may align ourselves with those whose vision we agree with and challenge each other for the greater good. This system requires a presence not just from officials, but also from citizens in order to work. Citizens need to hold these officials accountable and demand that they be transparent and work with this greater good in mind.
I do not believe that the system is terminally flawed. I believe that the system lacks a rigour that should be standard. I believe that it is grossly under resourced and highly pressurised by politically and socially driven mandates which sometimes lead to poor decisions or bad mistakes. But I also believe that both sides are not adequately playing their part. In this case, these mistakes were being pointed out at every turn and in this case they should not have been made. At the same time, ordinary citizens have not sufficiently showed up to demand accountability and transparency enough.
Our love for country, the thing that makes goosebumps appear when we hear Nkosi Sikelel' iAfrica or see the flag flying high, is not just because of the beautiful landscapes or sporting teams. It should also be a fundamental love for its people and a need to see them thrive.
The trouble with otherness is that it is such a moveable affliction. Today it could poor, black, woman, gay, disabled but tomorrow it could very easily be minority, rich, privileged.
How is it that in this country, 94 people die as a result of a government decision that should have been stopped and we have lukewarm standard responses from the highest branches of government? How is it that in this country, we the ones who are not vulnerable and are well resourced, pepper the streets of Braamfontein when our retirement savings are at risk but merely tweet when 34 and then 94 of our fellow countrymen die?
The main answer I have come to is the problem of otherness. We have created so much space between us and what is different from us that when horrific things like Marikana and Life Esidimeni happen, but they do not happen to those we closely identify with, we leave it to section 27 to deal with these issues, without even providing that organisation with additional support.
The trouble with otherness is that it is such a moveable affliction. Today it could poor, black, woman, gay, disabled but tomorrow it could very easily be minority, rich, privileged. By regarding or valuing others less because of some sort of otherness we have ascribed to them, we are agreeing to be valued less by whatever our otherness may be to them.
So, while we're on the subject of love this month, I'm going to ask you, the not-so vulnerable and well resourced, to think about what love of country means to you. Below are three ideas on how to begin contributing:
· Donate your time or money to section 27.
· Visit the YPA (formerly YPF) for a dialogue session. The next session is on 15th February with Joel Netshitenzhe or drop them an email.
· Read up on how government works and how you could organise.

Question: AP source: Warriors to re-sign big man Kevon Looney

Represent the article to find a fitting news title!

OAKLAND, Calif. (AP)  The Golden State Warriors will be much younger next season, and general manager Bob Myers is working to keep much of the core intact to chase another championship.
Versatile big man Kevon Looney will re-sign with the two-time defending champions on a one-year deal for the minimum, a person with direct knowledge of the agreement said Tuesday.
The person spoke on condition of anonymity because Looney's new deal cannot become official until he signs after the moratorium period is lifted Friday.
Golden State already reached agreement with two-time reigning NBA Finals MVP Kevin Durant on a two-year contract with a player option.

Bringing back Looney, a power forward and center, was a top priority for Myers, who also hopes to re-sign guard Patrick McCaw.
Looney lost about 30 pounds last offseason to transform his body, make himself faster and give him a regular spot in coach Steve Kerr's rotation, even earning starts in five postseason games during the absence of Andre Iguodala.
In his third professional season, the 22-year-old Looney averaged 4.0 points and 3.3 rebounds in 13.8 minutes per game.
While the Warriors lost center JaVale McGee to the Lakers, they added DeMarcus Cousins on Monday to give Golden State five potential All-Star starters once Cousins returns from a torn Achilles tendon that required surgery.
ESPN first reported Looney's agreement.

Question: Think Tank: How Messaging Is Transforming the Customer Experience

Represent the article to find a fitting news title

When you’re trying to get in touch with a friend to make plans, how do you do it? E-mail, text, Facebook? What you probably don’t do nowadays is call them. Why, then, are we still forced to communicate with brands through an 800 number? At one time, call centers were the only interactive connection between consumers and brands, aside from the in-store experience, and often, in-store sales associates would not have the resources to solve customer issues.
The computer and smartphone changed all that and, today, pixels and not voice are the main way we connect with brands. So why are voice-based call centers, which employ nearly 10 million people globally and are incredibly expensive and inefficient to run, still the primary way to get customer service from most companies? Are they really the best retail and fashion brands can do for their customers?
Years ago, consumers were (grudgingly) willing to wait on hold for long stretches of time because voice calls were the only option for communication. Since the dawn of messaging services like iMessage, WhatsApp and Facebook Messenger, consumers have been using messaging as a primary mode of communication — spending four times longer in messaging apps each day than voice calls, according to a recent Nielsen study. Now that messaging is clearly changing the way consumers choose to interact with each other, it’s time for brands to follow suit.
So what?
First, we need to understand what is so wrong with call centers on a business level. Consumers have to wait for a few minutes to talk to a representative — big deal, right? Call centers create millions of jobs all over the world. Shouldn’t we tough it out? Ultimately, it all leads back to the consumer.
The customer experience is the most important aspect of any brand interaction. Apparel and luxury companies, especially, place a particularly high value on “delightful” customer interactions, and calling an 800 number — which now feels a little archaic — is the opposite of delight. It not only wastes time, but is frustrating, impersonal and ineffective to the customer, leading to a negative brand experience.
Voice-based support diverts people away from engagement on digital channels. For example, if a customer is looking at a handbag in a brand’s app, they can’t press a button and ask about this specific bag by voice. If the app uses messaging, however, that specific bag can appear in the message thread, so the customer stays in the app and the brand representative knows exactly which bag they are looking for, rather than making a customer explain the style verbally.
Finally, call centers are staggeringly expensive, costing businesses around $350 billion every year to run. For our clients, customer service calls cost a company nearly $7 each. Messaging? Around $1 per conversation, bringing the cost per interaction down by 75 percent.
What about the representatives?
While it’d be necessary to train employees on a new platform, the shift in workflow provided by messaging would not only streamline workflow but lead to more efficiencies among sales associates, enabling employees to tend to more customers at one time. For example, an associate at a call center can only help one or two customers at a time via voice. With messaging, a customer service representative can help up to 10 customers at a time, because consumers and representatives are no longer beholden to a schedule.
With voice calls, the amount of interactions ebbs and flows throughout the day: spikes at lunch and in the evening are fairly common, with lulls in between. With those spikes, coupled with the inability to handle multiple customers at a time, service representatives can get overwhelmed and burn out quickly, attributing to the notoriously high turnover within call centers. Often, this inflamed level of communication results in miscommunications. According to research conducted by LivePerson, 40 percent of customers make a second call within 24 hours because their issues remain unresolved.
With messaging, the workflow is much more steady — the “curve is flatter,” in industry parlance — because there is no fixed time that customers have to set aside (usually at lunchtime or just after work) to call, wait on hold, and hopefully fix their issue. This flatter curve keeps associates calm, with fewer high-pressure rush periods, and customers happy. Messaging is also less stressful for customer-service people than voice calls, because they can talk to each other and collaborate — hard to do when all your coworkers around you are on live voice calls. The result is annual attrition down from 35 percent or higher for call-center staff to less than 10 percent when staffers are messaging.
The permanent, text-based messaging structure creates a historical record that can be referenced by both customer and agent — just scroll back in the thread to see the history of that customer — so questions and informative details don’t have to be repeated. The customer-unfriendly time spent re-explaining an issue (often multiple times, to different reps!) goes down, which is a significant factor in reducing care costs, which go down by an average of 48 percent.
Saks Fifth Avenue is taking a progressive approach to messaging, connecting customers to specific shop floor staff at the location nearest to them, putting associates at that customer’s disposal using their phones, via text messages, to assist and advise the customer on store inventory. This builds a connection between those associates and the Saks.com online presence, creating a positive experience for the customers.
What about the stores?
Not only could messaging change the form and function of the call center, but SMS could completely shift the retail floor offering, unlocking new productivity from in-store associates.
Retail stores and call centers mirror each other, following the same demand curve of business — waves of traffic in the early morning, at lunch and evenings post-work. Between rush hours, retail floor associates are often bored and find themselves either doing nothing or filling their time with menial tasks. If retail associates were trained to field customer-service inquiries via messaging, not only would their productivity increase, but they would become better acquainted with the brand. This makes associates more valuable to customers in-store and on mobile, enabling them to perform their jobs more efficiently. Knowledge is power, after all.
Ultimately, satisfied and knowledgeable employees do more efficient work. Efficient work breeds solutions-driven thinking. And solutions breed a positive brand experience and satisfied customers, which is always the goal. Recognizing the need for a shift in tasks as integral as communication and enabling associates to operate quickly and efficiently is the first step in pivoting to a streamlined future.

For instance, <<['this news article should be represented to find a fitting news title', 'TAMPA — This is why Greg Bird will not be stopped.\nThe biggest setback in Bird’s career has become his biggest strength.\n“The things I learned over last summer, baseball and life is all experiences,’’ Bird told The Post on Friday at George M. Steinbrenner Field about coming back from a torn right shoulder labrum. “I’ve never really wanted to take a year off from baseball. But not to be able to really do baseball, and much else, so early in my career was extremely difficult for me.\n“I had a hard time sometimes — even talking.\n“You don’t always get what you want,’’ Bird said.\nSometimes, well, you might find you get what you need.\nDoes Bird feel he became a better ballplayer as a result of going through shoulder surgery and intensive rehab?\n“I do,’’ he said. “I told my mom that the other day, I said, ‘I didn’t play at all, and everybody talks about at-bats, but I feel better than I was before. Physically and mentally.’ ”\nThere’s more.\n“And you become a better person,’’ said Bird, who is already rock solid at the age of 24 and is one of the young Yankees leaders, part of the new core four in the making. “If you handle it the right way and get something out of it.’’\nAnd the magic came back in his swing just this week. Bird had been dealing with this shoulder injury since May 2015.\n“In early 2015, I was trying to hit the way I hit and I couldn’t,’’ he said. “I’m a big feel guy and I couldn’t feel what I wanted to feel. I tried different bats and different things.’’\nYour browser does not support iframes.\nBird wasn’t quite right even though he came up to the Yankees in mid-August and produced, batting .261 with nine doubles and 11 home runs over 46 games, leading the club in home runs over that span.\nHis surgery took place on Feb. 2, 2016. He rehabbed to regain strength, but he had to regain the lost feel of his swing. It wasn’t there during his stint in the Arizona Fall League.\n“But four or five days ago, I got in the cage and got the work in that I wanted to get in and the feel was back,’’ Bird said. “I found what I was looking for so long. The shoulder is stable and strong and the feel in my swing is back.

Question: Scotland’s Baby Box available nationwide

All babies in Scotland due from tomorrow (August 15) will be gifted a Box full of essential items aimed at tackling inequality and promoting health.
The boxes are a strong signal of the Scottish Government’s determination that every child, regardless of their circumstances should get the best start in life.
Each Baby Box contains a large number of items which are not only practical but designed to help tackle inequality and improve health. The Box itself also doubles up as a safe sleep space, awarded British Safety standard accreditation as a crib for domestic use.
Mark McDonald Minister for Childcare and Early Years said: “We are committed to doing everything we can to give every baby born in Scotland the best possible start in life and the Baby Box is just one of the range of measures we are using to help babies and parents thrive in the crucial early months.
“The Box includes a large number of items which are not only practical but designed to help tackle inequality and improve health. It can also be used as a safe sleep space and has been awarded British Safety standard accreditation as a crib for use at home.
“We will continue to listen to feedback as the Baby Box reaches more families and work with parents and healthcare professionals to keep the contents under review.
“The national roll-out is the result of months of hard work and engagement with healthcare professionals, stakeholders and parents and I would like to thank everyone involved in helping us reach this momentous occasion.
“The Baby Box has certainly captured the public’s imagination and we are extremely proud to introduce it to Scotland.”
Chief Medical Officer Dr Catherine Calderwood said: “All the evidence shows that the early years are crucial for children’s development. What happens then can be linked to outcomes much later in life. So we know that measures undertaken in the 0-3 years age range have the opportunity to make the biggest impact.
“That is why we have been working hard to enhance the existing infrastructure available to support families in these crucial early years from before birth all the way up to school age and beyond.
“Over and above the practical benefits the items within the Baby Box provide, the box itself also offers healthcare professionals a unique opportunity to introduce expectant parents to a wide range of health promotion information.”
All babies due on or after 15 August will be eligible for a Baby Box.

WASHINGTON -- President Trump signs S. 204, the “Right to Try Act” Wednesday afternoon.
In March, the House passed legislation aimed at giving seriously ill patients increased access to investigational drugs, a bill championed by Vice President Mike Pence.
"Right to Try" is named for Jordan McLinn, a second grader from Indianapolis who advocated in Washington for the bill alongside Pence.
The bill will let patients who are near death, or who have a disease that is likely to lead to severely premature death, potentially access drugs that have gone through only preliminary testing on humans. They would have to be ineligible for a clinical trial and have already tried other available treatments.
USA TODAY is providing live coverage of the bill signing in the player above starting at 12:15 pm ET.

Question: Duterte abolishes commission for urban poor

PRESIDENT Rodrigo Duterte will abolish the Presidential Commission for the Urban Poor (PCUP), according to Malacanang on Tuesday.
In a press conference, Palace spokesman Harry Roque said Duterte mentioned that PCUP was notorious for junkets abroad, and has not met as a collegial body.
“The President stated two grounds behind his decision to abolish the commission. Number one, it is, according to him, a collegial body, and they have not met as a collegial body. Number two, the commissioners are notorious for junkets abroad. This kind of work performance has no place in the Duterte administration,” said Roque.
Roque said that “this latest decision of the President to abolish the PCUP, among others, for unnecessary junkets of its officials, prove beyond doubt that the President is very serious in his anti-corruption campaign.”
“We reiterate, we are serious about the drive against the corruption in government,” said Roque.
Roque said it was he who informed PCUP chairman Terry Ridon about the impending abolition of his agency.

Some came in costumes depicting the horrors of rights violations.
By MARYA SALAMAT
Bulatlat.com
MANILA – Bright and colorful Christmas lanterns and lights were twinkling at storefronts and light posts when an estimated 8,000 protesters marched to Chino Roces Bridge (formerly Mendiola) on December 10, International Human Rights Day. With the country already into its traditionally long Christmas season, and amid fresh news of threats of martial law in the air, how did it affect the protesters of human rights violations?
The usual program was still held to formally mark the day. They held it December 10 afternoon at the Bonifacio Shrine in Manila. Speakers from various groups and sectors contributed to the annual reckoning of how much the government has contributed to the statistics of extra-judicial killings, filing of allegedly falsified charges, criminalizing of democratic acts of dissent, and pushing “development” projects that force people into low-paid jobs, hunger and homelessness, evacuation, protests and rebellion, among others.
Human rights defenders from all over Metro Manila and some provinces shouted out the disparity between President Duterte’s claims and promises and what the people have actually received.
“Duterte is not only lying about drugs, so-called federalism and the elitist RevGov. He and his court jesters are misrepresenting the Filipinos’ desire for authentic change with his drive towards one-man rule,” said Joel Saracho, spokesperson of LODI (Let’s Organize for Democracy and Integrity), a group of artists and media workers.
Raling gabi with lighted torches, mural effigies
The human rights defenders marched to Chino Roces Bridge (formerly Mendiola) by nightfall of December 10. They lighted and carried torches and chanted slogans asking who the real terrorists are, as well as predicting the downfall of the “dictator, puppet Duterte.” Some came in costumes depicting the horrors of rights violations.
Protesters from Caloocan such as the Youth Movement Against Tyranny wore black garbage bags to dramatize the increasing number of killed urban poor due to President Duterte’s drug war.
The Youth Act Now Against Tyranny, an alliance of more than 300 student councils, publications and organizations that mobilizes students and youth to join in protests in various areas of the country, denounced “the series of killings and human rights violations under a looming dictatorship of President Duterte.”
Aside from members looking like walking body bags, they brought a huge cross with the calls “Stop the Killings” on one side and “Just Peace” on the others side. Older women opted to diss the president’s penchant for tough talking and threatening or ordering the government troops to kill. They called Duterte a pest, and a “Boy Ratrat (Mr Pepper-you-with-bullets).”
The group Scientists Resist Tyranny raised high their fists and calls through cardboard cutouts.
In closing the Human Rights Day program in Mendiola, an enormous Duterte mural effigy with a design that took a politicized leaf from lantern parades was rolled near the stage.
The effigy visualized the ordinary people’s condemnation of President Duterte’s killings and trash talk. Meanwhile, protesters decried the growing number of human rights violations his various wars have been causing. The president’s evil eyes in the mural effigy were portrayed as lighted with fire.
Five students of Fine Arts from UP who are members of Ugat-Lahi artists collective squeezed the making of the mural in between completing their requirements for finals. The enormous mural effigy “unfolded” to reveal Duterte’s “real face” inside. It lit up like a lantern at first and took 15 minutes, three songs, to burn.
The protesters concluded the rally with vows to persist in defending human rights. They will be back in Mendiola. It will not be a prosperous new year, this much they anticipated from the lack of wage hike and end to contractualization, the lack of land reform, lack of substantial improvement in health, education, transportation, jobs, and the new slew of regressive taxes under Duterte’s proposed tax reforms.
“Instead of addressing the root cause of people’s discontent mainly borne out of landlessness, poverty and injustice through pursuing peace talks with revolutionary groups, President Duterte chose to launch an all-out war by terminating the peace talks and threatening to re-arrest NDFP peace consultants. He let the AFP and PNP a free hand to launch attacks against the mostly in poor rural communities,” warned Anakpawis Rep. Ayik Casilao.

Question: Lady Gaga shares first photo from 'A Star is Born'

represent this text to find a news title for it.

Lady Gaga shared the first image on Monday from her film remake of A Star is Born, also starring and directed by Bradley Cooper.
The classic Hollywood tale of two stars colliding, one whose career is on the upswing and the other’s waning, has been made three times previously, most recently in 1976 starring Barbra Streisand and Kris Kristofferson.
Lady Gaga, who will be billed under her real name, Stefani Germanotta, wrote beside the image of herself and Bradley on Instagram: “I am so excited to star in my first movie alongside someone I’m so lucky to call my friend. I always wanted to be an actress on the big screen.”
She added, “The story of ‘A Star is Born’ is so special and I’m so grateful to Bradley for making my dream come true.” She signed off by saying: “Can’t wait for you to meet Ally. She has her first scene in 5...”
The film marks Cooper’s directorial debut and, in addition, he is co-producing the project and co-writing it. He will also play country music legend Jackson Maine who is struggling to keep his career on track. Lady Gaga is hopeful singer Ally who Jackson not only takes under his wing but also becomes romantically involved with.
Fans in Indio, California for last weekend’s Coachella music festival kickoff - at which Lady Gaga was one of the headliners - received an added bonus when they were offered $10 tickets to feature as extras in scenes being filmed at the site for the new film. All proceeds from the sales will go to Lady Gaga’s Born This Way Foundation.
A Star is Born is due for release next September.

Lady Gaga has had an amazing year, from performing at the Super Bowl to headlining the Coachella Music Festival and she’s not done yet.

Grey skies over the Coast this weekend are not expected to yield much rain
Grey skies over the Coast this weekend are not expected to yield much rain Stuart Cumming
Stuart studied journalism at the University of Southern Queensland in Toowoomba. He worked briefly at Central Queensland News and Warwick Daily News. He has worked as a reporter at The Chronicle since July 2009.
GREY skies and a rising southerly swell are features of this weekend's weather predictions.
Bureau of Meteorology meteorologist Harry Clark said the remnants of storms over western Queensland had reached the Coast overnight on Friday but had not yielded much rain.
"It will be a bit of a gloomy day,” Mr Clark said of Saturday.
"Tomorrow it should clear up a bit.”
He said Maleny and Bribie Island received about 1mm of rain on Friday night with Double Island Point receiving 0.8mm.
Beachmere recorded a comparatively high fall of 31mm.
"We did have some rainfall over the entire west of the state.
"Unfortunately it didn't make it as far north as the Sunshine Coast.”
The Coast is expected to reach a top of 25 degrees on Saturday and 26 on Sunday.
South-easterly winds are expected to range between 15 and 20 knots on Saturday easing later in the afternoon to between 10 and 15 knots.
A southerly swell of between 1m and 1.5m, generated by a low pressure weather system off the New South Wales Coast, is expected to reach the Sunshine Coast on Sunday.
But Mr Clark said that was unlikely to impact on region's beaches.
"Most of it ends up going parallel to the Coast.”
He said the Coast's next best chance of rain would possibly be on Monday and more likely on Tuesday when he said there was a chance of a thunderstorm.

In case you haven't noticed it's a rainy day outside today. Which means, it's a good time to get some coffee.

Represent the article to find a fitting news title

OTTAWA — The national unemployment rate was 6.2 per cent in September. Statistics Canada also released seasonally adjusted, three-month moving average unemployment rates for major cities. It cautions, however, that the figures may fluctuate widely because they are based on small statistical samples. Here are the jobless rates last month by city (previous month in brackets):

According to the most recent data from the U.S. Census Bureau, Topeka's population fell for the fifth straight year in 2016. While the census is conducted every decade, the Census Bureau provides annual population estimates for cities, counties and states across the country.

Question: NLL: Mammoth defeat Stealth 13-10

Nine different goal scorers propel Mammoth to victory
Saturday night the Colorado Mammoth (9-3) defeated the Vancouver Stealth (1-12) 13-10 at the Langley Events Centre.
The win, Colorado’s fifth in a row, brings them closer to a home playoff game as they hold a four-game lead over Calgary with six games remaining. Colorado also holds the tie breaker by winning the season series 2-1. Any combination of Colorado wins and Calgary losses equaling two will guarantee the Mammoth at least one home playoff game.
Colorado started out very quick and wanted to leave no doubt who the better team was on this night. Joey Cupido started the Mammoth scoring just 23 seconds into the contest, earning the 100th point of his career. Jeremy Noble would net the next two, one on the power play and the Mammoth jumped out to a 3-0 lead. Tony Malcolm would finally get the Stealth on the board just 96 seconds later to gain a little momentum, but Stephen Keogh would score two minutes later and give the Mammoth a three goal lead after the first quarter.
The second quarter was a battle up and back. Pat Saunders cut the lead in half in the first two minutes, but then the Mammoth replied with two goals of their own to regain any momentum they may have briefly lost. But this Vancouver team never gives up as Rhys Duch and James Rahe scored 56 seconds apart and the Stealth crawled within two at 6-4. The Mammoth would get their three goal lead back in the final 15 seconds on the powerplay to end the half 7-4.
As the second half started the Stealth came out on fire scoring the first three goals and tying the game at seven. Joel McCready would score twice and Logan Schuss would score the other. Rhys Duch also picked up an assist on each of the goals. As quick as they had the momentum they lost it just as fast. Eli McLaughlin would score to end the third quarter, but the Stealth were only be down by a goal.
McCready got the hat trick at 1:19 of the fourth, but the Mammoth would counter with two goals of their own to stop any type of run the Stealth wanted. The Stealth scored short handed as Malcolm beat Dillon Ward, but again the Mammoth would score twice to counter. Corey Small would score with the extra attacker, but Cupido ended the game with an empty netter.
“I thought we did a pretty good job in spurts,” Cupido said in a Mammoth press release. “We stuck to our game plan for the majority of the time but, at some points, we got sloppy and Ward bailed us out big. There’s definitely room for improvement but when you hold a team to 10 goals or less you know you’re doing something right.”
Joel McCready (3G) and Tony Malcom (2G/3A) led the offense for Vancouver. Eric Penney stopped 42 of 54 shots faced. This was the Stealth’s eighth loss in a row, and they are all but mathematically eliminated from this year’s playoffs.
Colorado had nine different goal scorers. Eli McLaughlin, Joey Cupido, Jeremy Noble and Stephen Keogh all registered a pair of goals. Noble and Keogh chipped in with two assists each. Dillon Ward stopped 49 of 59 shots faced.

SASKATOON -- Peterborough's Shawn Evans scored his second goal of the game in overtime as the New England Black Wolves edged the Saskatchewan Rush 13-12 on Saturday in National Lacrosse League action.

Curtis Knight had three goals and two assists while Mark Matthews had two goals and three helpers to lead the Rush (10-5). Robert Church also struck twice, with Jeff Cornwall, Ryan Keenan, Jeremy Thompson, Ben McIntosh and Matt Hossack supplying the rest of the offence.
Peterborough Laker Evan Kirk made 43 saves for the win as Aaron Bold stopped 35 shots in defeat.
Evans is sixth in league scoring with 34 goals and 55 assists for 89 points with two games left in the season.
Dickson has five goals in Calgary loss

Question: Mazda recalls nearly 174K cars to fix faulty seats

DETROIT (AP) – Mazda is recalling about 174,000 small cars in the U.S. because the seats can change angles suddenly, making the vehicles hard to drive.
The recall covers the Mazda 2 subcompact from the 2011 model year and the 2010 and 2011 Mazda 3 and Mazdaspeed 3 compacts.
The company says the seat height adjustment links can break or detach from the seat frame, changing the seat angle and increasing the risk of a crash.
Dealers will inspect the seat links and either install a reinforcement bracket or replace the whole seat adjustment unit. The recall is expected to start on March 31.

Almost 227,000 vehicles in the United States are being recalled by Mitsubishi to fix glass sunroofs that might fly off and parking brakes that might not work, according to the Associated Press.
One recall involves nearly 57,000 Outlanders from 2007 to 2010, Lancers from 2008 to 2010, Lancer Evolutions from 2009 and 2010, and 2010 Lancer Sportback due to sunroof glass that can detach, posing a hazard, AP reported.
Dealers will replace the sunroof glass.
A second recall involves more than 170,000 Outlanders from 2014 to 2016 and 2013 to 2016 Outlander Sports. Water can seep into the rear brake calipers, corroding and possibly making parking brake shafts sticks, which can keep the brake from holding the vehicle in place.
Dealers would replace the brake boot, lever and caliper bodies if needed, along with the piston assembly, said AP.
The recalls begin March 27, according to the wire service.
