A Spalding man who received serious arm injuries when a bin lorry crashed into a ditch in Crowland on Wednesday morning has been released from hospital.
Two colleagues who received minor injuries in the accident were treated and released on the same day.
A man from Spalding was airlifted to hospital this morning, Wednesday, after a bin lorry crashed into a ditch.
The incident happened in Nene Terrace Road, the B1040, near Crowland, at 10.25am.
Medics from the air ambulance treated the casualty, who is in his 40s, at the scene for serious arm injuries before he was flown to Addenbrooke's Hospital in Cambridge. Two colleagues received minor injuries.
Road closures remain in place and drivers are asked to follow diversions.
A spokesperson for South Holland District Council said: "Our immediate thoughts are with those involved and their families at this difficult time.
"We can confirm there were three staff in the vehicle at the time of the incident. Two received minor injuries and one, who sustained serious injuries, was taken to Addenbrooke's Hospital by air ambulance. We wish them all well and will support them where we can.

Georgia 2022 Senate runoff recap: Warnock wins election, boosting Democratic majority
Phillip M. Bailey Rachel Looker Abraham Kenmore David Jackson Savannah Kuchar Candy Woodall Will Peebles
Democrat Raphael Warnock defeated Republican Herschel Walker in the Georgia Senate run-off Tuesday, expanding his party's majority in the chamber and giving them more power to confirm judges and promote legislation.
Democrats had already secured control of the Senate with wins in last month's general elections; Warnock's runoff victory gives them a 51st vote, making it easier for the party to push President Joe Biden's agenda in the face of the incoming Republican majority in the U.S. House.
While much congressional deadlock between the chambers is likely, the 51-seat majority does give Democrats more control of Senate committees and frees them from reliance on Vice President Kamala Harris' tie-breaking votes.
The Senate also has the sole authority to confirm judges and other president appointments.

Biden calls to congratulate Warnock
President Joe Biden late Tuesday said that he called to congratulate Warnock on his victory.
"Just called @SenatorWarnock to congratulate him on his win," according to a tweet from the official @POTUS account. "Tonight Georgia voters stood up for our democracy, rejected Ultra MAGAism, and most importantly: sent a good man back to the Senate. Here's to six more years."
-- Luciana Lopez
Warnock: 'The people have spoken'
Sen. Raphael Warnock took the stage just before 11:15 p.m. to deliver his victory speech after winning re-election to the U.S. Senate.
"I want to say thank you from, thank you from the bottom of my heart, and to God be the glory —" he began, before pausing for a roar of approval from the crowd "— for the great things that God has done. And after a hard fought campaign, or should I say campaigns, it is my honor to utter the four most powerful words ever spoken in a democracy — the people have spoken."
Warnock recounted his family history, including how his mother grew up picking cotton and his father supported the family hauling cars, and his own history growing up in Savannah.
"I am Georgia," he said. "I am an example and an iteration of its history, of its pain and its promise, of the brutality and the possibility. But because this is America and because we always have a path to make our country greater against unspeakable odds, thank you Georgia."
Warnock said that his victory was not evidence that voter suppression does not exist in Georgia but that instead it was an indicator that voters had managed to overcome it. He highlighted several policy issues – lowering prescription drug prices, creating jobs, and working on criminal justice reform. And he thanked his staff and volunteers.
"After a hard fought campaign, you got me for six more years," he said.
– Abraham Kenmore
Takeaways from the runoff
One of the most expensive and bitter Senate contests ended with Democratic Sen. Raphael Warnock prevailing over Republican challenger Herschel Walker on Tuesday.
The Georgia race, which cost $380 million in total, did not change which party controlled the Senate in the upcoming Congress, but it did underscore how deeply and evenly the country is divided going into 2023.
For months the race was a tale of major contrasts as Warnock, a Baptist preacher, and Walker, a former NFL star, were opposites in experience, political beliefs and speaking styles.
Read the whole story here:5 takeaways from the Georgia Senate runoff between Raphael Warnock and Herschel Walker
-- Phillip M. Bailey
Walker: 'not going to make any excuses'
Walker said running for senator was the best thing he's ever done in his concession speech around 11 p.m. ET.
"There are no excuses in life," Walker said. "I'm not going to make any excuses now."
Walker urged those in attendance to support their elected officials and to "stay together, don't let anyone separate you."
-- Will Peebles
Mood darkens at Walker HQ as vote count nears end
As the vote count neared completion Tuesday night around 10 p.m., the crowd at Walker's watch party were on a rollercoaster of emotions.
The Fox News live count of the race on the projected screen at the front of the room fluctuated back and forth as the close race tilted to Walker, then back to Warnock.
Cheers erupt, then the crowd falls silent, a couple of times every 10 minutes or so.
But as the night wound down, and Warnock's lead extended to about 30,000 votes, the silence began to persist.

Warnock wins in Georgia runoff
Democratic incumbent Raphael Warnock won the runoff race for Georgia's Senate seat.
CNN and NBC first reported his win, with the Associated Press and others following sho.
Democrats already locked Senate majority last month, but had hoped for a greater margin and more legislative power, especially in committees.
In contrast, Republicans hoped to make the Senate a 50/50 split to keep some level of power, especially in committees.
Tonight's result marks the end of an extra-long election process, after neither candidate won more than 50% of the vote in November and the race went into a runoff.
-- Savannah Kuchar
Biden predicts Democratic win in Georgia
As the country waits for the final tally in the Georgia runoff, President Joe Biden isn't.
"We're going to win," he said. "We're going to win Georgia."
The president was speaking to reporters after exiting Air Force One.
— Phillip M. Bailey
Country music star sets tone at Walker party
As Georgia-born country music artist Andy Velo, the opening musical act of the Walker watch party, was playing "Friends in Low Places" around 8:40 p.m. Tuesday night, the crowd erupted in applause.
But it wasn't just for Velo. The crowd was watching the results, displayed on a giant screen playing Fox News behind Velo. Walker, who had been trailing Warnock from the start of the night, finally caught up in the close race.
"Ladies and gentlemen, that's your hard work right there," Velo said, as he began playing an original song.
The timbre of the room changed entirely. What before was a fairly reserved party became energized, as Walker supporters cheered together and hugged each other.
At that point, about 1.8 million ballots of 3.3 million total had been counted.
Traveling to campaign
Michael A. Guynn came a long way for Warnock's election night gathering – all the way from Los Angeles.
"I've been out here since Sunday," he said, campaigning in Gwinnett County for Warnock. "We've been going strong for three days."
Guynn said he also helped campaign for Stacey Abrams in 2018. He heads back to California Wednesday, but wanted to make it out to the election night gathering first.
No call yet in Georgia Senate runoff
Results from the Senate runoff race between Democratic incumbent Sen. Raphael Warnock and Republican Herschel Walker remain uncalled, an hour and a half after polls closed in Georgia at 7 p.m. Eastern Time.
Warnock is currently leading Walker in voting, 52.2% -- 47.8%, with nearly 50% of ballots counted at 8:23 p.m. ET.
Dave Wasserman, editor at the Cook Political Report, said the race will come down to a close margin. "At this point, turnout in metro Atlanta would need to be unusually rough for Warnock (D) to lose," Wasserman tweeted Tuesday night.
-- Mabinty Quarshie
No matter who wins, history will be made
Whoever voters choose Tuesday, Georgia is set to elect its first Black senator to a full six-year term.
Warnock is already in the Peach State's history books as the state's first Black senator after beating Republican Kelly Loeffler in the 2021 runoff.
That made the Atlanta minister—who is pastor of the historic Ebenezer Baptist Church where Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. presided—just the 11th Black senator in U.S. history, but that was to finish out the term of Sen. Johnny Isakson, who resigned in 2019.
If Walker wins, the former NFL running back would be the 12th Black senator in U.S. history.
Georgia polls close
It's official: The Georgia Senate runoff is over, with polls closing at 7 p.m. Eastern Time.
Now the political world waits to evaluate the results of the high-profile race between Democratic incumbent Sen. Raphael Warnock and Republican challenger Herschel Walker.
If one of the candidates breaks away, the race could be called as early as 10 or 11 p.m.; a tight race, and we could be waiting until after midnight.
– David Jackson
Warnock campaign 'feeling really good' ahead of polls closing
Warnock's campaign is confident as the polls are about to close, according to Democratic strategist Tharon Johnson, founder and CEO of Paramount Consulting Group. Speaking at the Warnock election night gathering, Johnson said that key precincts are trending the right way for the senator.
"Feeling really good about the turnout because our campaign has spent an enormous amount of time talking to all voters across the state of Georgia," he said. "The early vote numbers were really good, and we're proud of the Georgia voters that decided to go out and vote early."
As for what is bringing voters back to the polls after the primary and general election earlier this year, Johnson said it is nothing less than democracy.
"We have a group of people on the Republican side who are focused on trying to move us backwards as a country," he said. "And people in Georgia, they realize how important it is we send Sen. Warnock back to Washington."
Runoff turnout exhausts paper supply
As Georgia headed into its final hour of the run-off election Tuesday, precinct 4-08 at Wilmington Island Presbyterian Church saw more than 1,100 ballots cast, according to poll manager Ashley Reed.
During the primaries on Nov. 8, the same precinct saw 862 voters the entire day.
"I've never had turnout like this for a runoff," the 27-year veteran of elections work said. "We're running out of paper."
Reed added that more paper was on its way, and the precinct experienced a few machine hiccups during the day, but nothing that kept people from voting.
The ballot scanner stopped working, and by the time they'd received a new one, Reed said she had to scan a backlog of 200 ballots into the machine. "But everybody got counted," she said.
Reed said the shorter time for early voting is what drove people out to vote on Election Day this week, along with the importance of the outcome— which would either clinch already assured Democratic control of the Senate, or narrow the already thin margin of political control should the Republicans succeed.
"The entire country hinges on this one," she said of the election.
-- Zoe Nicholson
Warnock watch event prepped and ready
Supporters of Sen. Warnock are gathering at the Atlanta Marriott Marquis in downtown Atlanta, less than a mile from where Walker is gathering supporters.
A TV behind the Warnock campaign podium is already playing CNN coverage of the election, an hour before polls close. Dozens of journalists from local and national outlets are setting up, but doors will not open for supporters until 6:30 p.m.
USA Today's Georgia reporters are on the scene and will be providing regular updates and photos throughout the night.
-- Abraham Kenmore
Walker supporters arrive at Election Night watch party
The College Football Hall of Fame in Atlanta was bustling with journalists Tuesday around 5:30 p.m., as they took their places for Herschel Walker's watch party.
The former UGA standout's football legacy is enshrined there. Walker was inducted to the College Football Hall of Fame in 1999.
Walker's watch party is officially set to begin at 7 p.m., and campaign staffers said other guests of Walker should start to arrive around then.
USA TODAY Network Georgia reporters will be providing updates from both Walker's watch party and Incumbent Senator Raphael Warnock's watch party throughout the night.
For progressives, Georgia could be a Manchin-Sinema 'insurance policy'
Georgia's runoff won't change which party controls the Senate, but progressive activists have one big reason for wanting Democrats to get a 51-seat majority on Tuesday.
Those at the grassroots level told USA TODAY that taking Sens. Joe Manchin of West Virginia and Kyrsten Sinema of Arizona—two more conservative-leaning members of the caucus—down a notch is a major motivation.
"It does give you a little bit of insurance policy," said Cliff Albright, co-founder of Black Voters Matter, an Atlanta-based voting rights group, said.
"For Georgia voters, for some Black Georgia voters in particular, they're very much aware of that," he added. "They view getting this seat to getting closer to making those two less relevant."

Early voting updates
Final data from election night won't be available for a while, but Georgia has been updating the early voting data in real time.
Before election day, Georgia had accepted about 175,000 absentee ballots and 1.7 million people had voted early in person – a total of 1.89 million ballots, or 27% of registered voters.
White voters had the highest number of votes among early voters, but Black voters had slightly higher early voting turnout at 29.5% - a full percentage point higher than white voters. About 10% of voters under 30 voted early, while 49.5% of registered voters 65 and above had already voted by election day.
Dems look to young voters for Warnock's success
Maxwell Frost, Democratic Representative-elect and the first Gen. Z member of Congress, appeared on the University of Georgia campus today to encourage students there to go vote.
"I gotta tell y'all… I'm feeling really good about the youth turnout in Georgia," Frost wrote in a tweet.
Voters 29 and under had a large turnout earlier this year in the general election, with the second highest participation rate in decades. A majority of these voters cast their ballots for Democrats in November.
Walker, Warnock make final pitch to voters
Sen. Raphael Warnock, D-Ga., and Republican challenger Herschel Walker barnstormed Georgia Tuesday in their final stops of a long midterm campaign cycle, with both of them stressing the importance of high turnout.
That was especially true in parts of the state where rain was in the forecast.
"Rain is not an excuse to not vote. Rain is not an excuse to not show up," Warnock said in a video Tuesday shared thousands of times on social media. "If you stand with me, I will stand with you – in the rain, in the snow, in the sleet, the hail. I'll show up for you every time."
Walker, who has been buoyed by his football fame, said he loves "winning championships" and predicted a victory for himself in Georgia, focusing on turnout Tuesday. "I love y'all, and we're gonna win this election."
-- Candy Woodall
No Donald Trump sightings in Georgia runoff
The Georgia Senate runoff has come and nearly gone, with one notable absence: Donald Trump.
Trump never did travel to Georgia to campaign for protege Herschel Walker, much to the relief of Republicans who said the former president would have probably done more harm than good – as appeared to have happened during runoff races in the state in early 2021.
In midterms election a month ago, Trump-backed, election-denying Republicans lost key Senate and other statewide races in important states like Arizona and Pennsylvania.
This time around in Georgia, Trump was relegated to a "tele-rally" for Walker on Monday night and posts on Truth Social.
"To the Great State of Georgia, Get Out and Vote for the WONDERFUL Herschel Walker," Trump posted.
Gov. Kemp continues raising support for Walker
Gov. Brian Kemp encouraged Georgia voters to go out and vote for Herschel Walker, as he said he already had, in a video posted to Twitter this morning.
"We got to have a big turnout today to win this thing. Let's get it done and send someone like Herschel to the United State Senate that is going to fight for us," Kemp said in the forty-second video.
During his own campaign for reelection earlier this year, Kemp kept more distance between himself and Walker, not publicly supporting the Republican Senate candidate the way he has since Nov. 8. He made his first appearance with Walker on Nov. 19 during a rally northwest of Atlanta.
With Walker coming into today polling slightly behind his opponent, his best shot at success may very well be Kemp. The popular governor could help mobilize voters, especially more moderate Republicans, who did not turn out for Walker a month ago.
Who is Herschel Walker?
Republican challenger Herschel Walker is a former college and National Football League player. The 60-year-old Georgia native entered the race for Senate as one of former President Donald Trump's hand-selected candidates. The George Senate race is Walker's first political campaign.
A staunch anti-abortion rights candidate, Walker faced controversy just weeks before the general election when an ex-girlfriend told the Daily Beast he had paid for her abortion in 2009 and later urged her to have a second one. Walker denied her allegations, along with those from a second woman who said she was also pressured by the Senate candidate to have an abortion.
Walker has maintained a strict position against abortion access, including in cases of rape or incest, identifying himself as "pro-life" on his campaign website. He has run on a platform of energy independence as a means to reduce oil and gas prices, along with saying he will "defend, not defund, the police."
-- Rachel Looker, Savannah Kuchar
How much has been spent on runoff election?
The Georgia Senate race is the most expensive race of the midterm season, according to OpenSecrets.
Super PACs spent nearly $16 million more on Warnock than his Republican challenger Herschel Walker ahead of the runoff election, spending more than $40 million on expenses like advertisements supporting Warnock or opposing Walker. Other PACs spent more than $24 million supporting Walker or opposing Warnock, according to filings reported to the Federal Elections Commission.
Money is mainly being used to purchase TV ads, digital and online communications and on-the-ground canvassing.
-- Rachel Looker, Mabinty Quarshie, Erin Mansfield
Why is there a runoff election? And could tonight's runoff go to a recount?
On election night, Sen. Raphael Warnock was up about 1 percentage point over Herschel Walker – not enough to avoid a runoff, with the Libertarian drawing 2% of the vote, but enough to avoid a recount in Georgia.
According to Georgia's recount law, losing candidates have the right to a recount from the secretary of state if they are within half a percentage point of the winner after the results are certified.
There is also a procedure if an election administrator or candidate believes that there has been an error in the count. If a candidate requests a recount due to an error, it will happen at the discretion of the secretary of state.

Georgia election: DOJ to monitor Georgia runoff
The Justice Department will monitor polls in four Georgia counties Tuesday as voters cast their ballots in the Senate runoff election, the last remaining contest in the 2022 midterms.
Justice regularly dispatches monitors as a guard against voting rights violations. And on Tuesday, monitors from the Civil Rights Division and U.S. attorneys' offices will be deployed to Cobb, Fulton, Gwinnett and Macon-Bibb counties.
Complaints involving possible violations can be made on the department's website or by telephone at 800-253-3931.

Georgia GOP Lt. Gov. Geoff Duncan: Herschel Walker one of the 'worst Republican candidates' in party history
Georgia Republican Lt. Gov. Geoff Duncan, who was elected in 2018, told CBS news that he would not be voting for Walker.
"I think Herschel Walker will probably go down as one of the worst Republican candidates in our party's history," he told CBS News last week.
"I think I've got kids probably that could articulate the conservative platform better than some of the candidates that Donald Trump and his group supported all across the country," he added.
– Rachel Looker
What to know about the Georgia runoff:When is the Georgia runoff election? Voters will head to the polls today.
What is a runoff election?
Similar to a political tiebreaker, a runoff election is a second contest held when no candidate wins the majority of votes in a general election.
In Georgia, runoffs are held four weeks after a general election when the top two candidates did not earn more than 50% of the vote. A candidate has to earn the majority of votes to win in a runoff election.
Both Georgia Senate candidates Walker and Warnock did not meet the 50% vote threshold on Nov. 8, with Warnock leading Walker by more than 30,000 votes – earning 49.4% of total votes. Walker earned 48.5% and the remaining 2.1% went to libertarian candidate Chase Oliver, triggering the runoff.
Anyone who is registered to vote can cast a ballot in a runoff election.
Who is Sen. Raphael Warnock?
Democratic Sen. Raphael Warnock, 53, was first elected to Congress in 2020 after winning a special election runoff to fill a vacant seat. Born in Savannah, Georgia, the senator has served as a pastor for over 16 years at the Ebenezer Baptist Church in Atlanta, the former church of the late Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
Warnock has dubbed himself a "pro-choice pastor," according to his campaign website, and has criticized the Supreme Court for overturning the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision that legalized abortion.
The Democratic incumbent has emphasized the need to fight for criminal justice reform measures while funding the police. He is an advocate for Medicaid expansion and capping the cost of insulin and prescriptions.
Warnock believes access to education shouldn't depend on zip codes and has advocated to lower the cost of higher education, fighting for student loan forgiveness.
Warnock vs. Walker: From toss-up to leans Democratic
Polls continue to show Warnock and Walker locked in a tight race that could go either way, but some political forecasters are giving the Democrats an edge.
The Crystal Ball at the University of Virginia, a newsletter that analyzes campaigns, moved Georgia from a "toss-up" to "leans Democratic" state on Monday.
It noted that Georgia remains a competitive state, but that "most indicators point to a Warnock advantage" including the early voting data and that Democrats are heavily outspending Republicans.
"If Warnock ends up winning... we can all agree on one thing: He will have certainly earned a full term. Over the span of 2 years, Warnock ran a gauntlet of 4 high-stakes races," J. Miles Coleman, an associate editor of the newsletter, said.
Warnock vs. Walker: Saturday voting and runoff timeframe
Georgia was embroiled in one of the more controversial voting rights battles the Republican-controlled state legislature changed the election rules in early 2021.
Among the biggest changes that had an impact on the Dec. 6 special election under the measure, known as SB 202, was shortening the runoff election from nine weeks to four weeks, and cutting early voting from 17 days to five.
Another fight created by the new law was over Saturday voting.
Initially, Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger's office suggested Georgia counties had the option to provide Saturday voting on Nov. 26.
But later the office said there would be no Saturday voting, citing its interpretation of SB 202, which prevents early in-person voting being held on any Saturday that comes after a holiday on a Thursday or Friday.
Democrats, including the Warnock campaign, pounced on Raffensperger's office and quickly filed suit against the decision. A judge, and eventually an appeals court, ruled against the GOP in court and allowed voting on the Saturday after Thanksgiving.

Georgia election: Nearly 2 million have already voted
Over the past two years Georgia voters have had a marathon of contests – the 2020 presidential election, two separate 2021 Senate runoff contests and the 2022 midterms.
But if the early voting numbers are any indication the Peach State is just as engaged for the Dec. 6 runoff as any other contest.
According to the secretary of state's office, more than 1.8 million Georgians have already voted.
Last Friday, the last day for early voting, more than 350,000 Georgians cast a ballot, shattering the one-day record for early voting.
"Georgia is a national leader in voter access and security," Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger said in a statement.
"We are having historic levels of turnout and those who want to vote are voting- we believe this level of voter participation is excellent, and we'll keep working with counties to encourage them to open more early voting locations in the future."
Georgia runoff election: Polls opened at 7 a.m.
Polling places in Georgia's 159 counties opened at 7 a.m. for the Dec. 6 runoff, and will close at 7:00 p.m.
As in most state, if a person is line by 7:00 p.m., they are allowed to cast your ballot.

President Trump announced Nov. 20 that he will reveal his infrastructure package proposal once Congress passes changes to the tax code.
So far, the House passed a tax plan the week of Nov. 13, while the Senate is still working. Republicans in Washington would like to pass and finalize both of the bills before Christmas, The Hill reported.
According to Rep. Sam Graves (R-Mo.), officials from the Trump administration have begun early talks with lawmakers about the infrastructure plan, thanks to the quick work with the tax bills, The Hill reported.
Although there have not been many details revealed about the prospective infrastructure package, White House tech policy adviser Reed Cordish stated that the administration does have a 70-page document together about infrastructure, which is in the process of being finalized. According to Cordish, Congress will eventually receive the document to use as a springboard for creating the legislation, The Hill reported.

Revealing Podcast About Success Academy — Part VI
Posted on May 1, 2019	by garyrubinstein
Part 6 of Startup's seven part podcast about Success Academy (available here) is titled 'Fights.'
The first of the fights that it tells about is the fight for space to grow that Eva Moskowitz has had with Mayor de Blasio. Some charter schools have their own buildings or they pay rent for spaces though in New York City they often move into existing schools, taking a floor or two at first. This arrangement is called co-location. They play a tape of De Blasio on the campaign trail in 2013 saying "Time for Eva Moskowitz to stop having the run of the place. She has to stop being tolerated, enabled, supported."
About a month after de Blasio became mayor at the end of 2014, a high level DOE administrator called Moskowitz to tell her that three new spaces that she had been counting on, two to open new schools and one to add new grades at an existing school, were no longer going to be available to them.
About this news, they run tape of Eva saying:
EVA: I thought I must have misheard her. I cried. I mean I was crying on the phone with her… I was like 'Kathleen, how could you do this? This is an existing school, you're just throwing the kids out on the street? Where are they gonna go?'
The podcast then recounts the 5 million dollar PR campaign and the rally in Albany where Governor Cuomo even makes a speech in which he says "We will save charter schools."
The TV ads are powerful. Here is one of them:
The campaign is successful and the state legislature includes in the budget a new law where the city has to either find space in their own schools to colocate charter schools or else the city will have to pay the rent for those schools in other buildings.
The podcast only makes a brief mention of the other side of this argument — that the existing school that wanted to expand would be taking away space away from a special needs school.
But what the podcast never mentions, and something that they either purposely didn't mention, or negligently didn't think about, was that de Blasio was not in any way 'closing' that existing Success Academy middle school and, as Eva said, "throwing the kids out on the street." No, all he was saying was that if they wanted to grow, they would have to foot the bill for the new space. So the melodramatic fear tactics that are used in the video with the disappearing kids was a lie. All that would have happened if Eva had lost the battle with De Blasio would be that some of the money that Success Academy uses to pay for marketing or for PR or for defending them from the latest discrimination lawsuit would have to instead go toward rent. The school raises tens of millions of dollars a year and the 5 million dollar ad campaign (funded, the podcast is careful to say, by an outside group) would have been easily able to pay for the rent for that school in a new space. That school was not in jeopardy at all, it was just another lie and a cheap use of false drama, though the podcast fails to mention this.
The rest of episode 6 is about the New York Times publishing a hidden video of a first grade teacher ripping up a well-behaved child's math paper and yelling at her because the child wasn't explaining her thought process clearly enough. It has become known as the 'rip-and-redo' video.
So the teacher wants the girl to show how to count with what sounds like "one and a split." The child gets confused and she sends the very calm girl to "the calm down corner." Then another kid comes up to do it and, though I don't know exactly what this technique is, the kid does it very quickly so it seems like a very low level skill. The teacher is disciplined, though not fired, and Eva says that this is not something she supports.
The big questions is whether or not this kind of behavior by teacher is common at Success Academy. The podcast interviewed 26 current or former teachers there and of those, 21 of the 26 said that this is common. There were also several teachers who admitted to using these extreme, one might say abusive, methods. The fact that this 'rip-and-redo' is commonplace, according to the vast majority of teachers interviewed, is the biggest problem here.
When this video surfaced, there was a somewhat ironic role reversal among people in the education reform debate. Some charter supporters who are always saying that teachers need to get fired more easily were defending this teacher, and some charter critics who are often teacher's union supporters and try to give the teacher the benefit of the doubt were calling for the teacher to be fired. Personally, I don't think the teacher should have been fired if this truly was a rare occurrence for her (though, of course, it wasn't otherwise the teacher's aid who was taping this would not have been so ready to record this). The issue is that Success Academy fosters this sort of pressure so it is likely that this was not just a lapse by this teacher. Of course this teacher, Charlotte Dial, got her start in Teach For America. She has since left Success Academy and is now the educational director of something called New York Kids Club, a preschool and enrichment program throughout Brooklyn and Manhattan. Whether she trains her staff on the art of 'rip-and-redo' is anyone's guess.
There is one episode remaining now in Startup's attempt to answer the question of whether the pros outweigh the cons for Success Academy.
To be concluded …

A Day with Team USA Track Star Wallace Spearmon Jr.
For track and field, the pinnacle of the sport is competing on the world's biggest stage at the Olympics. Regardless of where you grew up or how far you made it competitively, as a track athlete you can't help but fantasize about representing your country on the national team. So, when I got the opportunity to meet the athletes on Team USA at this year's Penn Relays "USA vs. the World" series, needless to say I was beyond excited. My guide for the day? Two-time Olympian and 8th-fastest 200-meter athlete in history, Wallace Spearmon Jr.
I met Wallace in the downtown Marriott lobby where the USA Track and Field (USATF) athletes were housed for the weekend. All of the athletes had arranged their own travel to arrive some time on Thursday evening to convene that Friday morning (7:45 am) as a group. I knew exactly who Wallace was, so I approached him with a less-than-cool utterance of "Wallace, hi!" Facial recognition off the table, he searched my wrists for a WHOOP. Passing that test, Wallace nodded and shook my hand.
"Are you wearing yours?" I asked. He pulled back his jacket sleeve to reveal his own strap.
"I never take it off," he said coolly back with a little side eye, suggesting the silliness of the question. His eyes clearly conveyed what I too know about WHOOP data: Once you're on the system, you rely on it.
Wallace had invited me to shadow him for the day as he and the other athletes went through their pre-meet practice at a neighboring college track. First, however, was breakfast. He ran across the street to a corner store to pick up apple slices and a granola bar. I would soon learn from chatting with Bernard "Beejay" Lee, another Team USA athlete, that they have to provide all of their own meals on these trips.
Every single person in this very large entourage of athletes, trainers, coaches, and USATF support staff knows Wallace. He was greeted happily by each of them; most, in fact, included a hug.
The athletes and coaches alike seem to treat Wallace as the unspoken captain of the team. They deferred to him to make sure every athlete was accounted for, and accordingly, he waited streetside until every person had boarded the bus.
On the ride out to the Haverford College track, the athletes joked and bantered like cousins at a family reunion. As they chatted, I was steadily introduced to each of the members of Team USA's 4×100 meter relay. The first leg would be run by LeShon Collins, a 2016 graduate of the University of Houston. Wallace would be second. Beejay Lee, a 2015 grad of USC, would run third leg. Finally, the last leg would be run by John Teeters, a 2016 grad of Oklahoma State. Besides Wallace, all three of these guys were donning the Team USA jersey for their first appearance at Penn Relays as a professional athlete.
What struck me in learning about the life of a professional track athlete is how little time they get together to establish that sense of team I felt so readily on the bus. Take these four men as an example: Each of them trains with their own coach at their alma mater in four separate states. They've only met a handful of times at meets prior, and have never before run on a relay team together. After the effort at Penn, in fact, it's likely that foursome won't cross paths until the next Olympic year and it's doubtful the same four will ever be on a relay together again. Despite the distance, the camaraderie and chemistry is natural amongst these men.
These conditions that underscore the reality of a professional track career demand discipline and grit. In the lonely years outside of the Olympics, it's entirely up to the athlete to individually maintain the fitness and strength necessary to be competitive for an eventual Team USA slot. It's an environment fraught with variables and few systems of support; as such, a professional track athlete knows their locus of control is his or her own body.
Wallace took his time on the table getting his muscles worked on. He joked with the trainers that, at his age, he needs to get every piece of the puzzle right (he's only 32, but that doesn't stop Beejay and the other guys in their early 20s from calling him "Old Man"). As the trainer wrapped up, Wallace made a point of thanking the medical team for being there. This display of gratitude was equal parts unexpected and genuine, and the strong impression it made on the trainers was evident.
Sufficiently warmed up, the relay groups separated to their respective segments of the track to practice handing off the baton. This is technical and requires precision, particularly amongst short sprinters who are barreling down the track at top end speed. The coaches looked to Wallace to set the tone; the whole practice, in fact, seemed to operate under Wallace's watchful eye. He offhandedly mentioned something to me about being called the "Mayor of Track and Field," which very much felt like an apropos title.
For the most part, the athletes seemed to stay focused on their own rituals and routines. They talked to one another and came together as a team nicely, but there was marked independence in how they each went about their pre-meet preparation.
The same was not true of Wallace. He pulled John (the guy running the closing leg) aside and demonstrated how to better make a target with his hand when receiving the baton. Fresh in Wallace's memory must have been the botched handoff of training parter Tyson Gay in last year's 4×100 meter running at Penn.
The baton exchanges finished up and the athletes went about packing up their equipment to board the bus. Wallace, again, brought up the rear. He walked the track picking up the tape and trash left behind from the practice session on the way to getting his gear.

Kenny Wayne Shepherd will perform the entirety of his album "Trouble Is…" during his show April 6 at Hoyt Sherman Place.
At the age when kids first learn to ride a bike, Kenny Wayne Shepherd was plucking his guitar strings. By the time he was 16, the blues singer and guitarist had already signed a record deal. And, when he was 19, his single, "Blue on Black" hit No. 1 on the Billboard Music charts.
That single, along with other top 10 hits from KWS's album, "Trouble Is…" will be performed in its entirety at his upcoming concert tour.
KWS brings his Trouble Is… 25th Anniversary Tour to Hoyt Sherman Place on April 6.
From his home in Shreveport, Louisiana, KWS says his band will play the entire album for the concert.
"Fans know it was a huge record — a monumental achievement. This one pushed it over the top," he explains. "It topped one million copies, and we've had a great run with it."
The band will start the show with the album, finishing up with current songs from one of the 10 albums he's recorded.
The single, "Blue on Black" won rock song of the year by Billboard Music Awards. He's won other blues awards, earning five Grammy nominations. He's performed with countless musicians. His greatest inspiration was his longtime friend, blues legend B.B. King.
"He was like an adopted father to me. He gave me a lot of great advice — not just in music but in life."
He's performed at hundreds of venues and with other musicians throughout his career, with numerous highlights.
"When you have a career for 30 years and played with greats such as Rolling Stones, B.B. King, Van Halen, it's nearly impossible to choose a favorite experience," he says. "The things I most fondly remember aren't being up on stage. It's the personal relationships born behind the scenes — that's what is most important. Eddie Van Halen was a great friend."
He was elated when he recently played with one of his favorite female singers, Ann Wilson with Heart, on her new solo album.
"The opportunity presented itself. I didn't set out and put her name on a bucket list. It was fortunate it just fell into place," he says.
When he first began recording music, one of his goals was to write timeless material. "I didn't want it to sound trendy. Some pop music — it's hard to age gracefully," he explains. "Looking back, I'm happy at the timeless nature of the songs. With this genre, hopefully you get better with age."
A new album written just before the pandemic was put on hold until the right moment and will be released soon. A documentary is being filmed around the 25th anniversary of his first show in Shreveport.
KWS says his fan base is incredible. "We appreciate the support. Without fans, nothing is possible. It's moving and remarkable to see that support of people who listen to the music over and over." ♦

Two Illinois EMS workers charged with murder in death of patient strapped face-down on stretcher
Two Illinois EMS workers have been charged with murder in connection with the death of a 35-year-old man in their care, who they allegedly strapped face-down on a stretcher.
Peter Cadigan, 50, and Peggy Finley, 44, emergency medical workers for LifeStar, were charged with first-degree murder in the Dec. 18 death of Earl L. Moore Jr, Sangamon County State's Attorney Dan Wright announced Tuesday.
Moore died after he was taken into an ambulance in a prone position, meaning face-down, and had straps placed on his back and lower body to keep him on the stretcher, Wright said.
An image from a police body camera shows EMS workers loading Earl Moore into an ambulance on Dec. 18, 2022, in Springfield, Ill.Sangamon County Government
The Springfield Police Department had responded to a home around on North 11th street in the state's capital around 2 a.m. after receiving a call about people inside with firearms. When officers arrived, a resident said the person who made the 911 call was suffering from "hallucinations due to alcohol withdrawal," police said in a news release.
Officers found that individual, Moore, and "quickly realized that the patient was in need of medical assistance," police said.
An ambulance was called and arrived at the scene at 2:18 a.m.
A female paramedic instructed Moore to walk to the ambulance, but body camera footage, also released Tuesday, showed he "was not able to walk and the medical personnel were not offering any assistance," police said.
The three police officers helped Moore through the home onto a stretcher outside.
Officer body camera footage showed the EMS workers place Moore onto a stretcher in a prone position, according to police.
Moore died at the hospital at 3:14 a.m., Sangamon County Coroner Jim Allmon said at the Tuesday news conference.
An autopsy was performed and determined Moore's cause of death was compressional and positional asphyxia "due to prone face-down restraint on a paramedic transportation cot/stretcher by tightened straps across the back," Allmon said.
His death was classified as a homicide.
When police were notified that Moore had died, Chief Ken Scarlette requested an independent investigation by the Illinois State Police.
Wright said that based on the findings of the ongoing ISP investigation and the autopsy report, he filed first-degree murder charges against Cadigan and Finley.
They are currently detained in Sangamon County jail on bail of $1 million each.
Wright read out the charges to reporters saying the defendants "did act without lawful justification" in transporting Moore in the prone position and by placing "tightened restraints" on his back and lower body.
He said they should have known, "based upon their training, experience and the surrounding circumstances, that such acts would create a substantial probability of great bodily harm or death."
The prosecutor said they face a range of 20 to 60 years in prison if convicted. It's not immediately clear if they have lawyers.
An attorney for the pair did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Their next court date is set for Jan. 19.
LifeStar Ambulance Service did not respond to NBC News' request for comment.

Our wooden house is build or rather said prefabricated in the year 1920. It has a surface area which measures approximately 57 m2. The house is build on a foundation of brown clinkers, through this kind of building this house is higher than normal. The house is of a wooden mass construction building type.
De timber from which the house is build is European Pine. The colours used, are very special; the horizontal elements are oxblood red, the vertical elements are ochre yellow and the window parts are lead white.
The house has one building layer and a roof storey under a wolves roofing. The roof is reed thatched. The woodworks of the first layer of the house exist out of horizontal wooden boards in a pot-lid style. The wooden boards are partly milled so the vertical wooden boards fit into the free space and cover the posts, between the posts are placed twelve squires of draught board, rhythmical joined by these posts. The front gables exists out of vertical ochre yellow wooden boards, these boards have a difference in length so you create a milled edge with somewhat of an overlap. The milled edge is highlighted by a white border. The shutters and outer doors are painted in "Amsterdam green" with some white accents.
The factory made wooden parts are marked with Roman figures. In the early days most of the parts used where handmade, so not all parts are interchangeable.
Since the year 1998 the house is registered as a national monument.
