A Tale of Two Cities: Kenosha vs. Waukesha, by Victor Davis Hanson
In one case all sorts of facts that were not facts were reported. In the other case all sorts of facts that were facts were not reported. From Victor Davis Hanson at amgreatness.com:
Both Wisconsin towns, Kenosha, and Waukesha, about 50 miles apart by car, were the recent sites of multiple deaths. The violence in both made national news. Yet in contradictory ways both reflected the common themes of America's current legal, media, and societal corruption.
The relevant public prosecutors in both were in the news for alleged ideological bias. Specifically, they habitually calibrated the charging, indicting, and trying (or not) of defendants through ideological lenses and community pressure rather than on the basis of the facts and the law.
Kyle Rittenhouse was a 17-year-old armed youth who volunteered to protect business properties at the height of the August 2020 arson, riots, and looting in Kenosha. He was pursued and attacked by three members from a larger group who chased the armed youth, presumably either to disarm, injure, or kill him—or perhaps all three.
Rittenhouse variously was assaulted, kicked, and had a firearm pointed at him. In reaction, he fatally shot two of his pursuing attackers and wounded a third. Kenosha prosecutors reviewed videos of the altercations. They saw clearly that Rittenhouse was running away from his assailants. He was variously rushed by one assailant, kicked by another, and struck with a skateboard by still another. Again, a final pursuer pointed a gun at him at close range.

From Kenosha riots to Kyle Rittenhouse trial, biased media coverage makes everyone angrier, by Jonathan Turley
Nobody expects the media not to have its biases, but they're not even getting basic facts right. Exhibit A: the Kyle Rittenhouse trial. From Jonathan Turley at USA Today via zerohedge.com:
In our age of rage, Rittenhouse had to be convicted to fulfill the narrative. Acquittal has to be evidence of a racist justice system.
The full acquittal of Kyle Rittenhouse is now in. The result was hardly a surprise to many of us who watched the trial rather than the media coverage. The jury spent days carefully considering the evidence and could not find a single count that was supported beyond a reasonable doubt.
In rendering its verdict, the jury fulfilled its core function in our legal system. The jury was designed to protect an individual from becoming the grist of a criminal justice system. As the Supreme Court noted in Duncan v. Louisiana (1968):
"Providing an accused with the right to be tried by a jury of his peers gave him an inestimable safeguard against the corrupt or overzealous prosecutor and against the compliant, biased, or eccentric judge."
The American jury is designed to stand between the mob and a defendant; between the government and the accused.
The thin line of a dozen citizens can prove the most unassailable wall for justice in our system.
The media's guilty verdict
There was, however, a second verdict in that courtroom for those who have been maintaining a distorted or incomplete account to this trial. From the outset, politicians and media figures insisted that this was a case of murders committed by a white supremacist. Then-presidential candidate Joe Biden labeled Rittenhouse a "white supremacist" in a tweet showing his photo and demanded to know why then-President Donald Trump did not "disavow white supremacists." Much of the media followed suit with an echo chamber of coverage that led some people to believe that these were essentially executions on the streets of Kenosha. Columnist Elie Mystal called the trial a sham.

Prosecutors Find Mail-In Jury Votes At 3AM, Rittenhouse Now Guilty
From The Babylon Bee:
KENOSHA, WI—In a stunning reversal, Kyle Rittenhouse awoke this morning to discover that he had been found guilty after all.
Prosecutors explained that during the night, they had found dozens of mail-in jury votes declaring the defendant guilty on all counts. Apparently, boxes of these mail-in votes arrived in a truck at the courthouse around 3:00 am.
Attorneys for Mr. Rittenhouse were dumbfounded as to how such a thing could have happened, raising questions as to the validity of mail-in jury voting. They stated: "We've never heard of this. This isn't part of the legal system. Where did these votes even come from?"
"How DARE you question the sanctity of our criminal justice system!" cried the prosecuting attorneys. "There is no justice until EVERY vote is counted!"
Prosecutors then explained that it was a new COVID measure they had just instituted. "But given how well it's worked out," they said, "we're planning on making it permanent."

Revolver's Case For Disbarring Binger, by Revolver
Thomas Binger, the Kenosha District Attorney who tried the Kyle Rittenhouse case, is a horse's ass. He should consider himself very lucky if he's not disbarred for the stunts he pulled during the trial. From Revolver at revolver.com:
The entire political show trial of Kyle Rittenhouse has been a disgrace and a sham. The Rittenhouse self-defense case never should have been brought to trial in the first place. It was a travesty of justice that charges were even filed. Many have forgotten that the crazed, partisan Democrat Kenosha District Attorneys office rushed to file charges just two days after the shooting, before any sort of detailed investigation could be completed. The prosecution shamefully lied and slandered Kyle Rittenhouse before the trial even started. They then did so again, endlessly, at trial.
It goes without saying that there is a mile-long list of elected officials, attorneys, and other assorted public figures who must pay a price for the tawdry and disgusting railroading of the heroic 17-year-old "Kenosha kid" who singlehandedly stopped devastating looting and riots in their track with a few shots from his trusty AR-15. And the first shameful partisan political liar on that list goes by the name of Thomas Binger.

Thomas Binger, the floopty-haircut-sporting, goateed, Star-Wars-pin-wearing bespectacled dork draped in candy-cane ties and technicolor shirts, must pay the ultimate career price and be immediately disbarred by the Wisconsin State Bar.

Media Found Guilty On All Counts
KENOSHA, WI—In a verdict that surprised both the prosecution, defense, and judge, the jury for the Rittenhouse trial declared that the Media be found guilty on all counts.
The courtroom fell silent as the jury foreman stood to read the verdict, "We the jury find the media guilty on all counts, including the egregious use of its influence to lie to the American people."
The jury then listed guilty verdicts for the following allegations:
Painting an innocent American teenager as a white supremacist terrorist.
Painting violent, communist criminals as peaceful, innocent victims.
Using its influence to sow painful divisions in the greatest nation on Earth.
Using minorities as pawns in race-baiting schemes just for ratings.
Inciting violence on vulnerable neighborhoods and minority-owned businesses.
Giving an entire show to Brian Stelter.
Upon hearing the verdicts, the judge summarily sentenced the Media to continue its inevitable decline in viewership and trust, until they either strive for objective journalism, or disappear entirely.
Following the verdicts and sentencing, the Media immediately reported to the American people that a murderous white supremacist terrorist was set free, given a KKK outfit and bazooka, and told to kill, kill, kill.

The Rittenhouse Verdict is Only Shocking if You Followed the Last Year of Terrible Reporting, by Matt Taibbi and Matt Orfalea
The mainstream media plumbed new lows—just when you think they can't go any lower—with its coverage of the Kyle Rittenhouse story. From Matt Taibbi and Matt Orfalea at taibbi.substack.com:
Kyle Rittenhouse was found not guilty on all six charges today, already causing a great exploding of heads in the pundit-o-sphere. Unrest wouldn't be surprising. How could it be otherwise? Colleagues in national media spent over a year telling the country the 18-year-old was not just guilty, but a moral monster whose acquittal would be an in-your-face affirmation of systemic white supremacy.
It used to bother me that journalists were portrayed in pop culture as sniveling, amoral weenies. Take William Atherton's iconic portrayal in Die Hard of "Thornburg," the TV-news creep who gasps, "Tell me you got that!" with orgasmic awe when an explosion rocks the Nakatomi building. I got that — I'd seen that face on reporters.
But risking the life of hero John McClane's wife Holly by putting her name on TV, and getting the info by threatening the family nanny Paulina with an immigration raid? We're bad, I thought, but not that bad. I got that it was a movie, but my father was a local TV man, and that one stung a bit.
MSNBC Thursday pulled a Thornburg in real life. Police stopped a man named James Morrison who was apparently following a jury bus, and said he was acting at the direction of a New York-based MSNBC producer named Irene Byon. Even if all you're after is a post-verdict interview, if a jury gets the slightest whiff that the press is searching out their names and addresses, that's clear intimidation. People will worry about the safety of their spouses and children as they're deliberating. Not that it matters to anyone but the defense, prosecution, judge, jury, and taxpayers, but you're also putting the trial at risk. I've covered plenty of celebrity trials, from Michael Jackson to the Enron defendants, and know the identifying-jurors practice isn't unheard of. However, in a powder-keg case like this, it's bonkers to play it any way but straight.

Get Rittenhouse! By Ann Coulter
The men Kyle Rittenhouse shot were all convicted felons, but the sleazy prosecutor made them out to be saints. From Ann Coulter at townhall.com:
Source: Sean Krajacic/The Kenosha News via AP, Pool
Editor's note: This column contains graphic language.
In his prosecution of Kyle Rittenhouse, Kenosha County Assistant District Attorney Thomas Binger drew so many well-earned rebukes from the judge that some speculated he was intentionally going for a mistrial.
Nope. He was fighting like a banshee. He just has a really bad case.
Of course, it was his own decision to charge the then-17-year-old Rittenhouse with murder for shooting three psychopathic criminals who were attacking him at the BLM/antifa riots in Kenosha last year. (That, by the way, is a more accurate summary of the evidence than anything Binger said.)
In his closing argument, Binger decided to ignore his loser case and argue an entirely different case, for which no evidence had been adduced. Binger posited that Rittenhouse was an "active shooter" — like at Sandy Hook Elementary or Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School.
Forget that Rittenhouse was not at a grade school, but in the middle of a riot that did $50 million in damage to the town of Kenosha. Forget that rioters were beating up random people they encountered, including a 71-year-old man protecting a mattress store from being looted, who had his jaw and nose broken by a water bottle filled with concrete — hurled by "unarmed" protesters.

The Rittenhouse Case Proves The Establishment Wants To Bring Back Star Chamber Tyranny, by Brandon Smith
Legal rights and justice can be such a pesky thing for those bent on tyranny. From Brandon Smith at alt-market.us:
One of the most interesting stories from the early days leading up to the American Revolution involves the events surrounding the Boston Massacre. On March 5th, 1770 the Stamp Act had just been repealed but British Soldiers were ever present in Boston as a show of force against the "rowdy" colonists. The British government, in order to save face, implemented the Townshend Acts instead as a means to continue taxing the colonies (without representation, of course). Anger was growing in the streets.
The presence of the Red Coats in the city added to the public fury and protests were sparked. One such protest was raging in front of the Custom House on King Street over a disagreement between wig maker Henry Knox and a soldier. The argument grew into what was later described as a riot. Allegedly, the crowd became violent and started throwing objects at the soldiers. One of the soldiers let off a shot and then someone yelled "Fire!", causing all the Red Coats to shoot into the crowd killing five of them and injuring others.
The colonial justice system could have chosen to use their position to railroad the soldiers in question and make an ideological example out of them. Instead, in the first trial of Captain John Preston, ample legal representation was given (the lawyer was John Adams, who would later become the 2nd President of the US), along with a fair trial. Adams' position that the soldiers believed they were under imminent danger of bodily harm convinced the jury and a not-guilty verdict was given for the majority of the soldiers, with manslaughter charges for two of them.
Adams felt that his victory in the defense of the British soldiers was actually a victory for the colonies and ultimately the Revolution. You see, the British looked upon the colonials as "insurrectionists" and barbarians. They did not think that a fair trial for a soldier in the colonies was even possible. By proving them wrong with grace, logic and objectivity, Adams and the jury destroyed a common lie perpetuated by the monarchy and the British establishment. The colonies had more honor than the British did.
This lack of honor among the British establishment became evident before and during the Revolutionary War when the "Star Chamber" became the defacto law of the monarchy in the colonies.
The Star Chamber was an elitist operated "justice system" or tribunal originally designed so that the British aristocracy was assured a fair trial whenever they actually faced a criminal charge. In other words, it was a special court for the power elites that was separate and superior to the courts used for average peasants. Publicly, it was also presented as a means for commoners to redress grievances against aristocrats, but it was well understood that the Star Chamber would rarely go against the nobility UNLESS they had also offended the king. If they went against the king, they would be black-bagged like anyone else.

Please Stop Trusting Anything The Mainstream Media 'Report', by the I & I Editorial Board
It's been slow in coming, but millions of Americans now realize that the mainstream media is full of shit. From the Issues and Insights editorial board at issuesinsights.com:
pxhere.com
America's mainstream, or legacy, media have an agenda. It's not to subjectively report the truth but to further leftist ideas and policies, all of which are toxic. The press' disinformation campaign to prop up critical race theory is yet another example of its effort to deceive, manipulate, and divide on behalf of the party it is constantly shilling for.
A new study from the American Enterprise Institute found the media focus on schools teaching the history of slavery and racism, and largely ignore the "bedrock assumptions of CRT, including its explicit rejection of rationality and objectivity."
AEI's Frederick M. Hess "examined all news accounts addressing CRT published over a one-year period by four major newspapers (the New York Times, Washington Post, Wall Street Journal, and USA Today)," and several "influential education press outlets." All are news accounts. None are opinion pieces.
"Given that this admittedly revolutionary worldview is what motivates many objections to CRT-influenced pedagogy, one would expect news accounts to routinely address it," Hess writes in "Media's Misleading Portrayal of the Fight over Critical Race Theory."
"Remarkably, however, CRT's guiding assumptions were rarely mentioned in mainstream media or education press news accounts."
Continues Hess:
Only a tiny sliver of news accounts even mentioned the substantive concerns about CRT or sought to explore the actual tensions. This is a grave disservice to parents, communities, and educators interested in finding productive ways to debate these heated issues.
Media bias has also infected coverage of the Kyle Rittenhouse trial, which is now in the jury deliberation stage. The bias has been so severe that several on the left are "now willing to admit they were duped" by the press' Rittenhouse reporting, says Legal Insurrection.

Kyle Rittenhouse, Project Veritas, and the Inability to Think in Terms of Principles, by Glenn Greenwald
They're guilty because we don't like their politics is not a principle. From Glenn Greenwald at greenwald.substack.org:
Those whose worldview is bereft of universally applied principles, and based solely on tribal allegiances, assume everyone else is plagued by this very deficiency.
James O'Keefe meets with supporters during the Conservative Political Action Conference 2020 (CPAC) hosted by the American Conservative Union on February 28, 2020 in National Harbor, MD. (Photo by Samuel Corum/Getty Images)
The FBI has executed a string of search warrants targeting the homes and cell phones of Project Veritas founder James O'Keefe and several others associated with that organization. It should require no effort to understand why it is a cause for concern that a Democratic administration is using the FBI to aggressively target an organization devoted to obtaining and reporting incriminating information about Democratic Party leaders and their liberal allies.
That does not mean the FBI investigation is inherently improper. Journalists are no more entitled than any other citizen to commit crimes. If there is reasonable cause to believe O'Keefe and his associates committed federal crimes, then an FBI investigation is warranted as it is for any other case. But there has been no evidence presented that O'Keefe or Project Veritas employees have done anything of the sort, nor any explanation provided to justify these invasive searches. That we should want and need that is self-evident: if the Trump-era FBI had executed search warrants inside the newsrooms of The New York Times and NBC News, we would be demanding evidence to prove it was legally justified. Yet virtually nothing has been provided to justify the FBI's targeting of O'Keefe and his colleagues, and the little that has been disclosed by way of justifying this makes no sense.
The FBI investigation concerns the theft last year of the diary of Joe Biden's daughter, Ashley, yet Project Veritas, while admitting they received a copy from an anonymous source, chose not to publish that diary because they were unable to verify it. Nobody and nothing thus far suggests that Project Veritas played any role in its acquisition, legal or otherwise. There is a cryptic reference in the search warrant to transmitting stolen material across state lines, but it is not illegal for journalists to receive and use material illegally acquired by a source: the most mainstream organizations spent the last month touting documents pilfered from Facebook by their heroic "whistleblower" Frances Haugen.

The Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC) has in the past two weeks appointed seven one year senior fellowships with overall funding of £1.3 million (http://www.esrc.ac.uk/news-and-events/press-releases/24317/fellows-to-look-at-the-future-of-the-uk-and-scotland.aspx). This has all happened very quickly, with the call only appearing in July. With a referendum on Scottish Independence due to be held in 2014, the ESRC is clearly keen to facilitate high level research with which to help inform public debate and policy-making well in advance of the poll.
These seven projects clearly represent a wide range of work addressing the economic and fiscal implications of independence, public attitudes and education. It is notable also that three projects have a strongly constitutional dimension: my own project which will track the referendum bill and other enabling legislation as it passes through the Scottish Parliament, assessing the proposed referendum process against best international practice; that of Michael Keating, looking at different models of policy making under different constitutional scenarios; and Nicola McEwen's which will consider the possible implications of Scottish independence for ongoing intergovernmental co-ordination across the UK territory.
A number of the Senior Fellows already have plans to hold events targeted at civil society and the general public, as well as to disseminate important information by way of websites etc. I intend that my own project will involve cooperation with, and coordination of events through, the Edinburgh Centre for Constitutional Law and the SCFF; 2013 promises to be a very busy year for the Futures Forum and the website will continue to publicise events as they are organised.
The most important conclusion to draw however, as the public continue to be confused by conflicting reports in the press of a number of constitutional issues, is that a substantial body of research is now building and a wide range of public engagement is now taking place across Scotland and the wider UK ahead of 2014; this can only be positive in helping to inform citizens about the choices they face.

TREND: more than a name, a Mission.
The word indicates the direction in which change is moving and requires a certain passion for being on the cutting edge. In the busy decade since its founding in 2000, Trend Group has earned a reputation as the forerunner of market research, new tendencies and product development. As one of the world's leading producers of color glass mosaic, Venetian enamel, gold leaf tesserae and engineered stone surfaces, Trend Group has demonstrated a unique ability to synthesize the essential principles of Italian tradition with the dynamic creativity of today's most celebrated designers, architects and artists.
The Group has embraced this challenge globally, artfully fusing the nineteenth century alchemy of its Angelo Orsoni furnace in Venice with the twenty-first century innovations of its engineered agglomerate manufacturing plant in Sebring, Florida. With production and assembly facilities on four continents and operations in more than fifty countries, Trend is currently distributing over 1.5 million square meters of glass mosaic tile and 800,000 square meters of agglomerate surfaces per year.
The leadership of Trend Group has worked to assure that the company's commercial soul is shaped by a deep commitment to environmental concerns and cultural vibrancy. On the one hand, Trend actively supports the contemporary art world, is a leading member of the Intrapresae Collezione Guggenheim Association, and funds the biannual Orsoni Prize for International Mosaic Art. On the other, the company moved early and aggressively to reduce the ecological impact of its processes and products. Production is designed to consume fewer raw materials and energy resources, to recycle otherwise wasted materials, and to increase the natural durability of its inventive applications.
Long before 'green' became fashionable, the Trend Group declared a commitment to implementing real-world processes that protect and preserve the planet's resources.
Key to its ecological direction was the belief that great style and beauty did not have to be sacrificed, in the pursuit of corporate responsibility. Products are thus designed specifically...

The HIP is a UN program system devoted to researching and finding natural water resources and managing those resources found. While the UN is well aware that the necessity of water as a vital source for life means the retention of power over all life, they are well into their schemes to develop global governance over all sources of fresh, clean water.
At the High-Level International Conference on Water Cooperation (ICWC) conference, entitled "Water in the Anthropocene" states that humanity's impact on freshwater resources was assessed and it was determined that a 3rd of the estimated 7 billion people on earth have limited access to clean water.
Freshwater makes up 2.5% of the total water supplies across the planet. It is estimated that 70% of it is snow and ice-pack.
The document says that because of the impact of man on the planet, the earth's chemistry and climate have been altered which has evidenced itself in the measurable hydrological cycles of the planet.

Pakistan Ignores India's Request to Send Back IAF Pilot Abhinandan Varthaman by Air
He will now return to India through the Wagah border.
By PTI	 On Mar 1, 2019
Imran Khan. Credits: Twitter
New Delhi: Hours after Pakistan announced its decision to release Indian Air Force pilot Abhinandan Varthaman, India conveyed to Islamabad that it wants him to be sent back via aerial route and not through the Wagah land border, official sources said.
However, late in the night, Pakistan communicated to India that he will be returned through the Attari-Wagah border.
The Indian defence establishment was also mulling over sending a special aircraft to Pakistan to bring back Wing Commander Varthaman who was captured by Pakistan during an aerial combat on Wednesday.
Varthaman will now return home through the Wagah border which is around 25 km from Lahore in Pakistan.
The IAF pilot's MiG 21 was shot and he bailed out after bringing down one Pakistani F-16 fighter during a dogfight to repel a Pakistani attack on Wednesday morning.
Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan Thursday announced that Varthaman will be released on Friday as "peace gesture".

Tensions between India and Pakistan escalated after Indian fighters bombed terror group Jaish-e-Mohammed's biggest training camp near Balakot deep inside Pakistan early Tuesday.
It came 12 days after 40 CRPF personnel were killed when a Jaish-e-Mohammad suicide bomber rammed a vehicle carrying over 100 kg of explosives into their bus in Pulwama distrit of Jammu and Kashmir on February 14.
Following the bombing of the JeM training camp, the Pakistan Air Force carried out a retaliatory aerial combat, unsuccessfully targeting several Indian military installations.

What you need to know about coronavirus on Thursday, September 3
5 months ago Kaekoko.com
A version of this story appeared in the September 3 edition of CNN's Coronavirus: Fact vs. Fiction newsletter. Sign up here to receive the need-to-know headlines every weekday.
(CNN)A debate is raging as to whether the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) should give emergency use authorization to a coronavirus vaccine before it has been formally approved.
There has been pressure from the White House on government agencies to approve new treatments and even a vaccine before Phase 3 trials are complete — which could provide a short-term political boost for President Donald Trump. Yet public health experts say a fast-tracked vaccine could lead to safety and quality issues, or even inflame anti-vaccination sentiment. "We haven't done this before for a vaccine, or at least a major vaccine released to a large segment of the population," Dr. Peter Hotez, dean of Tropical Medicine at Baylor College of Medicine, said on Twitter yesterday.
There is also an issue of public trust, which has been falling, Dr. Seema Yasmin, a former CDC disease detective, told CNN. "My concern is that dropping credibility in science and scientists, in the FDA, which already this year has fast-tracked two emergency use authorizations and very questionably," she said Social media was awash with speculation yesterday after it was reported that the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) told US public health officials to prepare to distribute a potential vaccine as soon as late October. Read MoreBut do not read it as the CDC jumping the gun on the vaccine, Dr. Francis Collins, the director of National Institutes of Health, told CNN. It's just in case one of the vaccines now being tested shows fast, clear evidence it is protecting people, he added. Pandemic planning exercises have for years included recommendations that the federal government ready a distribution network while scientists work on a vaccine, Jamie Gumbrecht and Maggie Fox write. In better news, hopes of finding a cheap and widely available drug to treat Covid-19 patients were buoyed yesterday when research found that a common steroid reduced deaths among the critically ill. Following publication of the new research, the World Health Organization recommended the use of corticosteroids in patients with severe and critical cases.
YOU ASKED. WE ANSWERED
Q: Can I believe the CDC's mortality statistics when death certificates list other underlying conditions?A: The fact that other causes are referenced doesn't mean that the patients did not die from coronavirus, Bob Anderson, chief of mortality statistics at CDC, said in a statement."In 94% of deaths with Covid-19, other conditions are listed in addition to Covid-19. These causes may include chronic conditions like diabetes or hypertension," Anderson said. "In 6% of the death certificates that list Covid-19, only one cause or condition is listed.""The underlying cause of death is the condition that began the chain of events that ultimately led to the person's death. In 92% of all deaths that mention Covid-19, Covid-19 is listed as the underlying cause of death," the statement added.Send your questions here. Are you a health care worker fighting Covid-19?

WHAT'S IMPORTANT TODAY
Israel sees record riseIsrael set a new daily record of coronavirus cases, with 3,074 new cases diagnosed on Wednesday, according to the country's Ministry of Health. The previous record, set one day earlier, was 2,183 new cases in 24 hours.The spike comes two days after schools reopened and two weeks before the high holidays in Israel, when Jews congregate in synagogues and homes to observe Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur.Though too recent to be a factor in the surge in cases, the start of the school year has the potential to exacerbate an already serious situation.Virus cases almost back to March levels in Europe Coronavirus cases in Europe are "almost back" to March levels, the director of the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control, Andrea Ammon, said Wednesday.Young people were initially seen as driving the less-deadly surge in Europe at the beginning of August, but Ammon said infections now also appear to be affecting older populations. He added that the incidence rate in EU and EEA (European Economic Area) countries and the UK is now 46 per 100,000 people, when it was once below 15. And when it comes to children returning to class, the evidence was inconclusive as to "whether it's useful or not from a transmission point of view to close schools," Ammon added.Biden lays school crisis at Trump's doorDemocratic presidential nominee Joe Biden blamed President Trump for schools' struggles to open amid the pandemic, saying that if Trump had done his job, "American schools would be open and they'd be open safely.""Instead, American families across this country are paying the price for his failure and his administration's failure," Biden said in a Wednesday speech in Delaware. Opening schools is "a national emergency," he added. "But President Trump still doesn't have any real plan to open our schools safely," he added, accusing Trump of offering "nothing but failure and delusion."Biden is pushing a plan for schools in an effort to draw contrasts with Trump's handling of the pandemic and its effect on families. It comes as parents and students are finding themselves in the same position as when classrooms closed at the start of the pandemic — now two-thirds of the nation's largest school districts are starting online.More than half a million health workers in the Americas have contracted the virusAlmost 570,000 health care workers in the Americas have contracted coronavirus since the beginning of the pandemic, the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO) said during its weekly briefing, adding that health care workers in the US and Mexico made up one-in-seven of all cases reported in those countries. The US and Brazil, the two worst-hit countries in the world, have seen health workers become infected at an alarming rate. PAHO Director Dr. Carissa Etienne said that more than 140,000 workers in the US healthcare sector had become sick with Covid-19 — of whom 660 had died. In Brazil, almost 270,000 workers in health care had tested positive. Etienne said the Americas region now has 13.5 million Covid-19 cases and around 469,000 deaths from the virus. She noted that after months of unrelenting spread, cases were stabilizing in the US and Brazil.Officials plead to Americans to stay safe over Labor Day weekendDr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, made a "plea" to Americans to continue virus mitigation efforts as Labor Day weekend approaches.Covid-19 surges were recorded after Memorial Day weekend and the Fourth of July, and health professionals worry that virus fatigue and lower infection numbers will lead Americans to keep their guard down. Birthday and graduation parties, weekend get-togethers, backyard barbecues, family reunions and weddings can all quickly turn into clusters of infection. "Despite the fact that Covid-19 is now the third leading cause of death, people still doubt that we have a problem. They may think they are out of danger and behave as they did around Memorial Day," epidemiologist Ali Mokdad told CNN.
Actress Cate Blanchett touches elbows with Venice Film Festival director Alberto Barbera on the red carpet
Dwayne Johnson said he's won a fight against Covid-19, but is warning others that the virus was a formidable foe even for him.
The red carpet at this year's Venice Film Festival is proving to be unlike any before it, with celebrities arriving on the island of Lido in face masks and gowns to a muted reception.
Brazilian soccer star Neymar is one of three Paris Saint-Germain players to have contracted coronavirus, according to multiple reports.

Early stage clinical trial results show the Covid-19 vaccine candidate made by Novavax is safe and elicits an immune response, according to a study published Wednesday.
If you have a family gathering planned or a wedding to attend, here are the safest ways to congregate according to experts:
First, get a test for Covid-19 to make sure you are negative.
Then isolate yourself for two weeks, to make sure you stay free of the virus.
Gather with other families or family members outside, not inside.
Make plans to remain outside if there is bad weather — or get in your car and go home.
Wear masks at all times when not eating.
Keep the family units separated by at least six feet or more.
Make sure tables, food, condiments, eating utensils and trash containers are also separated.
Have each family bring their own food.
If food is shared, separate it in advance into small containers for individual servings.
"One of the things … we always do, is we respond when there is a need.

Zimbabwe's INSANE hyperinflation and conversion to the U.S. dollar
Imagine being a quadrillionaire. While that might seem like a fantasy from a book or movie, it's a truth that many in Zimbabwe were living with. However, with as glorious as that might sound, it was actually due to the hyperinflation that had taken place over the course of the last two decades. In 2009, Zimbabwe announced a plan to move away from the Zimbabwe dollar, and move to the U.S. dollar. If that sounds bizarre, it actually is more bizarre when you consider the level of inflation that was taking place in Zimbabwe to that point. It was noted that in 2008 alone, the Zimbabwean dollar inflated an insane 238 million percent.
That means for those who are now going to be taking advantage of the open exchange that the government announced yesterday, will include a rate of 35,000,000,000,000,000 Zimbabwean dollars for a single United States dollar. Some even pointed out that things got so bad that residents were taking wheelbarrows full of money to grocery stores when they were doing their weekly or monthly shopping.
The hyperinflation didn't just destroy the value of the currency though, as officials pointed out that it also destroyed the confidence people had in the currency as a whole. The bank backed by the federal government for Zimbabwe pointed out in a statement that, "The decommissioning of the Z$ has been pending and long outstanding since 2009." Simply put, this is not something that happened overnight. Rather, this is a reflection of something that has been in the works for many years. To this point, some have been doing business with the American dollar, but not having any national exchange set up made funding everything difficult.
Must Read: Zimbabwe's INSANE hyperinflation and conversion to the U.S. dollar
The economy as a whole suffered in Zimbabwe. The World Bank pointed out that the overall reduction of the economy was to the tune of 18%, as unemployment soared, and the inflation of the local dollar equally soared – making everything worthless in the country. Generally speaking, this was the concern of any country or financial body during the recession, but even for as bad as things were in the U.S. the tale of Zimbabwe's financial well-being is one that truly tests the limits.
Zimbabwean's have been split though on what they will be doing with the currency, now that there is an official trade-off happening. Some residents said that they would trash it, or use it as fertilizer, while others took a more sentimental approach. One individual was quoted as pointing out that, "I am keeping them for my grandchildren to see. Plus I know I will get more for them in future because these Zimdollars are going to be in demand." While that might seem like an optimistic point, it's clear that using the U.S. dollar isn't something that can go on forever. Experts have pointed out that this is only temporary, and that in the long-term, Zimbabwe is going to have to figure out how to gain confidence in a local currency again.

Over the years I have learned that beauty products are amazing, but they are supposed to enhance and build on the natural look you have. If you nurture your body and mind, you look and feel a lot better on the outside, with or without cosmetic products.
We all have good and bad days, but if we try to take little steps to take care of ourselves, we can at least ensure they don't hit us as hard as they might.
Now this doesn't mean I don't use a variety of makeup and products, because I do on a daily basis. However I try to pair them with more natural wellness remedies to ensure I am getting the right balance.
I have never been one of those incredible girls who can master the art of hairstyling like a pro. I can just about plait my hair, and I am seriously in awe of the people who can French braid or weave their hair into cute halo braids.
Therefore, this might be why I take a low maintenance route when it comes to the mane on top of my head.
When washing, I use the Touch of Silver Shampoo to brighten the blonde tones in my hair, followed by Pantene's Keratin conditioner through the body and ends for a bit of TLC and hair repair.
I only wash my hair once-twice a week. I have found that by not over-washing my hair it is a much better condition and is a lot thicker than it used to be.
For styling I tend to go with loose waves, or pin straight. Before applying any heat I always rub coconut oil into the lengths and ends of my hair, and I now rarely blow dry my hair. Air drying makes it a whole lot softer, and saves on the damage.
This does however mean I need to seriously plan my washes! Normally it's daytime Sunday and evening Wednesday to leave enough time to dry before bed or social gatherings.
Every morning I drink a Pukka Detox Tea, and I tend to do some form of exercise be it Yoga, Barre Workout or walking.
I then use a Balance Me face mask to exfoliate and cleanse my skin. I leave this on during my shower as I tend not to wet my hair / face so the mask and steam works wonders together.
I use coconut oil beneath my foundation as I am prone to dry skin and let this absorb whilst I use moisturizer on the rest of my body.
Throughout the day I try to keep hydrated and drink plenty of water. Since I began making sure I got my eight glasses a day, I easily notice when I am thirsty. It's great to be able to listen to your body's triggers and not confuse them for hunger or tiredness like I used to, when it's just down to being a little dehydrated.
For fuel, I eat only when I am hungry and my stomach rumbles. This means I am in control of when my body needs some energy, and I don't over indulge. Oh, and I try to sneak spinach and/or kale into every meal. I think it's amazingly delicious, and it's also so good for you! Go greens.
Of course I have treats though, such as Chinese delivery or wine, because I like to fill my life with what makes me happy. So if that's some chilli chicken I am all in! I just make sure I indulge in moderation.
At night, I make sure I get some time to unwind. This means at least half an hour reading or listening to Classical FM before bed, and no mobiles or that distracting blue light anywhere nearby.
Then I settle down for my average 5-7 hours a night kip. However I don't wake to routine, I wake when I am rested, be that 4am or 10am.
If you are a regular reader of my blog you might have seen my previous post about my capsule makeup collection.
When it comes to preening and polishing I tend to use a small collection of trusted products, however I am always open to new suggestions and ideas so please let me know if there's anything good I should try!
My makeup bag contains all the key products I need to create my daily look, with a few extras thrown in there in case of special occasions and the need to glam it up.
I try to ensure the brands I purchase are sustainable where possible. I often use the EWG website to track the environmentally friendly nature of the cosmetics I use.
On my face I use No.7 Stay Matte Foundation. It gives such a good coverage, and is one of the only matte foundations that doesn't dry out my skin.
I use a concealer from Smashbox, and their moisturising Legendary lipstick in the shade Audition on my lips.
On my brows I use a No.7 pencil followed by the Benefit Gimme Brow gel to get good definition. As a natural red head, I have barely there brows and need a lot of support to get some visible arches between my eyes and forehead.
Then I sweep a lick of eyeliner across my lids, and finish with some layers of Mascara. I am currently a big fan of Rimmel's Volume Colourist Mascara as it gently dyes my lashes over time, which means no more nasty chemical lash dyes each month.
I am always on the look out for more earth-friendly products though, so please do recommend any staples you swear by!
So there you have it, my daily hair and beauty low-down. For me, I don't strive to use as few products as possible in order to minimise my life. Instead I ensure that all my beauty essentials are used regularly, and I just don't impulse buy any products or accessories anymore.
Tell me about your beauty regime, any top tips?

www.wta.heinzleitsch.de - The U.S. Army in Wildflecken, 1951 - 1994
1234 Hilltop Herald
from page 1
the commander of the 7th Army Training Command, Brig. Gen. Charles H. Baumann, former Wildflecken Training Area commander, Col. Thomas O. Plant, former Wildflecken community commanders, Henry O. Johnson and Robert L. Holland, former deputy community commander, Randall Jackson, German government officials, Bundeswehr military personnel, post employees, family members and local citizens. Three individuals were given The Department of the Army Commander's Award by Brig. Gen. Baumann for their public service and long standing support and friendship to the Americans in Wildflecken. Mayor of Wildflecken Walter Gutmann, mayor of Bad Brückenau Hans Rohrmueller, and former mayor of Bischofsheim Hans Repp were sited for their exemplary performance and devotion to peace and freedom, as well as being instrumental in bringing about an end to the Cold War by providing extraordinary support, a sense of purpose and dedicated participation in public activities that directly impacted on the welfare and combat readiness of numerous U.S., German and NATO soldiers living and training at Wildflecken. As a symbolic act to signify the 283d Base Support Battalion's inactivation, "Attention to Orders" was called and Ogilvie, along with the 100th Area Support Group Commander, Col. Gary Tobin and 283d BSB Command Sgt. Maj. Mark Rudd, neatly rolled and tied the battalion's colors, and cased them for retirement to the Department of the Army Military History Museum Division for safe keeping. The colors will be kept in a place of honor either permanently, or until such time as the battalion is called upon to reactivate for a new mission. The battalion's inactivation also brought with it an end of the American presence in Wildflecken. "We have another victory celebration for winning the Cold War," Ogilvie said during his farewell speech. "A battle won through the hard work and training of all our predecessors who stood the vigil for peace, freedom and right. Yes, it was a long battle, a battle that we thought would never end this way, but made even sweeter by the fact that we didn't have to fire a single shot." Ogilvie spoke of his excitement when he was first told he was selected for command and compared his 21 months as the 283d BSB commander to crossing the "line of departure" every time he walked over the threshold of his quarters each rnorning. "Now we are engaged in consolidation and reorganization after seizing the objective," Ogilvie said. "We are dismantling this organization to reconstitute other organizations. On the 15th of June we will say, 'mission accomplished, Sir,' and move on to another organization to accomplish yet another mission." Ogilvie thanked the people who had contributed to his successful command: the soldiers of the BSB, the civilians both U.S. and local national, fellow BSB commanders, the supportive ASG staff, the "great group" of Burgermeisters and other elected officials, with special acknowledgment given to Burgermeister Walter Gutmann, ASG commanders, Col. James Snodgrass and Col. Gary Tobin and two "super" commanding generals, Brig. Gen. Montgomery Meiggs and Brig. Gen. Charles Baumann.
Then, with his voice quivering, Ogilvie also thanked his wife Ruth for sharing this command with him and for her never- ending support, and daughter Kristina and son Erik for sharing their
"dad" with all the other families in the neighborhood. "Thanks, guys," Ogilvie said. "I love you."
Taking the podium, the 100th ASG commander, Col. Gary Tobin, spoke of national resolve and the irony of victory. But first he praised the ecumenical service for giving religious tribute to the day's event and acknowledged Burgermeister Walter Gutmann for his musical performance during the service.
"I've never been so moved, Herr Burgermeister," Tobin said. "I've never been so moved by words because words only scratch at the surface. And the symbolism of what's happening today should not be lost on us. The irony of victory, the irony of success, and the sadness of good-bye. Sweet irony." Tobin said that the German and American flags standing bei'ore them represented a partnership: national resolve, nations' wealth, life blood, forbearance, and the sweat and tears involved in sweet victory. "Together with our partner in NATO, the Federal Republic of Germany, the symbolism of victory is evident," he said. "It is what has precipitated what is occurring today. Sweet irony." After acknowledging the people involved in the team work effort in the mission of closing one of the U.S. Army's major training areas, to include the former Wildflecken Training Area commander, Col. Thomas O. Plant, Tobin looked towards the outgoing and last 283d BSB commander and said, "Vince, mission complete."
Concluding, Tobin thanked the Germans for being such "gracious hosts" for over 49 years, and stated that the German - American partnership will not dissolve with the casing of the base support battalion's colors. "The victory: After June 15, the red, white and blue will no longer be unfurled on Wildflecken, but the colors of our proud partner nation in NATO will be," Tobin said. "The good news."
At the conclusion of the ceremony, the USAREUR Band played the Army song then led the crowd in a procession down Main Street towards the flag pole for the dedication of the German/ American friendship memorial.
MONUMENT DEDICATION
As a "thank you" to the Americans and the U.S. Army, the local national employees from the Wildflecken post unveiled an engraved stone monument during a dedication ceremony. The 10 - ton, 15 - feet - tall stone was given a permanent place ofhonor at the flag pole island. The Directorate of Engineering and Housing's mason shop chiseled a picture of a handshake on the front, which was directed and created by forman Emil Schrenk with assistance by Marcel Annon. Above the handshake a plaque reads: "In remembrance of the long - lasting, good - working relationship with our
American friends, 1953 - 1994, the German Workforce."
The monument began as an idea by the DEH Chief of Work Coordination, Bruno Kleinheinz, and the Wildflecken Training Area Chief of Training Support Branch, Richard Boehm. The monument is to remind everyone of the long - standing cooperation and relationship between Americans and Germans during the past 50 years.
"We wanted to do something different," Kleinheinz said. "We wanted to have something for the future so everybody can remember the way things were. What happened (the post closure) - we have to live with it. And it's still nice to do something for the Army, now."
"I am standing here today with a laughing eye and a crying eye," Works Council President Norbert Fiedler said during the dedication ceremony. "Even though the time has come for us to say good - bye to our American friends, this farewell also means a chance for a new start. If one wants to go to new places, the old ones have to be left first.
" Addressing his fellow colleagues, Fiedler said that they together have experienced the years of the Cold War and mastered critical years together. "This region blossomed with our military community," he said. "And all of you have contributed to this."
Fiedler also gave his thanks to the Americans. "At the end of an era and at the end of such a long way stands the gratitude to you, dear Americans, which comes from all of our hearts," he said. "After all those years of cooperation I thank you on behalf of all German civilian employees for the trust and friendship given to us."
FRIENDSHIP FEST
The Mayor of Wildflecken, Burgermeister "Pitzi" Gutmann desired to have a final farewell fest in conjunction with the 283d BSB inactivation ceremony to allow the local townspeople of Wildflecken and surrounding communities to have an opportunity to individually say good - bye to Americans before they leave.
Banquet tables, decorations and a stage were set, transforming a former motor pool, building #405, for the event. Musical entertainment, folk dance demonstrations and refreshments also contributed to the festive atmosphere.
At the beginning of the fest, Gutmann, along with the commander of Panzerartillery Battalion 355, Lt. Col. Michael Mueller, officially ended the sponsorship they had originally made in 1987 with community commander Col. Jerod Lemoine and the Wildflecken Military Community, and said good - bye to Lt. Col. Vicente C. Ogilvie, the first and last commander of the 283d BSB and the last unit commander of Wildflecken.

Plant, 100th ASG Commander, Col. Gary Tobin, Training Saapport Branch Chief Richard Boehm, DEH Mason Shop Forman and artist Emil Schrenk, Works Council President Norman Fiedler, Commander of the 7th Army Training Command, Brig. Gen. Charles H. Baumann, Wildflecken Burgermeister Walter Gutmann, and outgoing 283d Base Support Battalion Commander, Lt. Col. Vicente C. Ogilvie.
