  1. Pathologist Lists 3 Possible Causes of Death for Gene Hackman and Wife Betsy Pathologist Lists 3 Possible Causes of Death for Gene Hackman and Wife Betsy The investigation into the deaths of legendary actor Gene Hackman, his wife, Betsy Arakawa and one of their three dogs, remains ongoing after they were found dead on Feb. 26. Many questions remain about regarding the circumstances surrounding their deaths, but earlier this week, the Santa Fe County Sheriff’s Office issued an update based on the New Mexico Gas Company’s “extensive investigation for gas leaks and carbon monoxide at Gene Hackman’s home,” ruling out one cause of death. “There were no significant findings. NMGC did issue five (5) red tags. One red tag was for a minuscule leak (0.33% gas in air – not a lethal amount) at one of the stove burners,” the statement read. “The other four red tags were for code enforcement violations -not involving gas leaks or carbon monoxide – involving a water heater and gas log lighters installed in three fireplaces.” While a gas leak appears to have been ruled out, three more causes of death were posited by James Gill, Chief Medical Examiner, with the Connecticut Office of the Chief Medical Examiner. Gill is not investigating Hackman’s death in his professional capacity, but he believes both died from natural causes. “From the initial kind of circumstances, it seems like he may have collapsed,” he told People. “He’s got a history of heart disease. He’s got a pacemaker. So that would not be unusual. But the unusual part is that why then did she also collapse? Assuming she would’ve found him. Then you start wondering about: There is this thing where the stress of seeing someone die that could have triggered a natural death in her.” Gill floated another possibility that Betsy died first and Gene “found her and was going out to get help or get his phone, and he then collapsed from the stress of that, too. Just as likely. He’s older, he’s got known heart disease. But the autopsy would certainly show if she had heart disease or ******* or what have you.” He suggested a “kind of a broken heart-type thing, almost,” that’s been “known to happen.” “Suddenly finding your loved one dead on the floor that can increase your adrenaline and that stimulates your heart to beat faster, and that can put your heart into an irregular rhythm,” he said. In the final theory, Gill suggested after finding a loved one dead, “people get very despondent and they do something to take their own life, and that may be with pills or what have you. I think the toxicology workup will be helpful in excluding causes such as an intoxication or injuries.” The toxicology report is expected to take several weeks.

  4. Trump’s protectionist policies could push Europe toward China Trump’s protectionist policies could push Europe toward China US President Donald Trump waits to greet British Prime Minister Keir Starmer at the entrance of the West Wing of the White House in Washington, DC, on February 27, 2025. Carl Court | Afp | Getty Images Tensions between the U.S. and Europe have hit something of a low in recent weeks — and China could be poised to use the spat to bolster its relationships on the continent. Transatlantic strains came to head last week during a disastrous meeting between U.S. President Donald Trump, Vice President JD Vance and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in the Oval Office. What started out as a potential signing of a critical minerals deal ended in a public shouting match. Trump has also made repeated threats of tariffs on EU imports and said that the bloc was “formed to ****** the United States.” Vance, meanwhile, lambasted Europe last month at the Munich Security Conference, saying he was worried about “the threat from within.” This strain in the so-called “special relationship” has seen Beijing become an unexpected ally and advocate for Europe, with ******** Foreign Minister Wang Yi visiting the continent last month to urge for closer ties and more cooperation. “China is clearly responding with a charm offensive, trying to portray itself as a stabilizing force and a potential alternative pole, exploiting European fears and hoping for a reset on Beijing’s own terms,” Alicja Bachulska, policy fellow at the European Council on Foreign Relations, told CNBC by email. After both the EU and Ukraine were shut out of surprise U.S.-led peace talks with Russia, Wang said at the Munich Security Conference that China hopes all parties can participate in peace talks to end the war in Ukraine. “As the war is taking place on European soil, it is all the more necessary for Europe to play its part for peace,” he said in comments reported by Reuters. For Beijing, expressing support for Europe’s role in the Ukraine peace negotiations is a “low cost way” to signal its respect for the EU and “draw contrast with Trump,” according to Gabriel Wildau, managing director at Teneo. “China aims at gaining strategic influence over Europe, as their investment and trade policies demonstrate. The forays in the context of Ukraine should be assessed in that light,” Ian Bremmer, president of political risk consultancy Eurasia Group, told CNBC via email. No longer ‘slaves’ to the Americans As Trump doubles down on protectionist policies, analysts say China stands to gain from a Europe free from U.S. pressure to impose sanctions and restrictions against Beijing. Europe has historically broadly aligned with U.S. trade policies designed to protect Western tech innovations and its economic interests. Take Dutch chip equipment maker ASML, for example, whose sales of advanced semiconductor manufacturing equipment has been restricted by the Dutch government following U.S. export controls. “A lot of Europe’s clamping down on China was at the request of the U.S. That, in a sense, is part of the price of being subjugated … and dependent on the U.S. for defense,” David Roche, strategist at Quantum Strategy, told CNBC in a call. “The Europeans may be getting hit [by potential tariffs], but they will no longer be slaves to the Americans,” Roche said. A fractured transatlantic alliance could therefore benefit Beijing, as Europe becomes “less susceptible” to U.S. pressure, said Teneo’s Wildau, which may lead to a rollback of existing export controls or at least the halting of new ones. Europe needs the help One example of a change in trade policy could be the European Union’s current tariffs on ******** vehicles, according to Wildau, who said the bloc’s leaders might conclude that they have “no choice” but to reverse course. The European auto industry has been under increasing pressure as carmakers battle with multiple headwinds ranging from the transition to electric vehicles, rising competition from China and now the threat of U.S. tariffs. ******** cooperation could help Europe manufacture the parts needed for its EVs, enabling the bloc to catch up with the technology and meet its sustainability goals, Roche suggested – with this just being one gap that China could potentially fill. “The reality is, in the broadest sense of the word, Europe has to look for alternative markets to the U.S. China can help,” Roche added. President Trump’s recent moves have stirred leaders in Europe, with Germany’s Friedrich Merz telling public broadcaster ARD in a speech after his party’s victory last week that the U.S. is now “indifferent” to the fate of Europe, and that his priority is for Europe to “achieve independence from the USA.” “Merz’s comments will not go unnoticed by Beijing,” Thanos Papasavvas, founder and chief investment officer at ABP Invest told CNBC via email: “The key question here is whether Germany’s traditional business relationship with China would also be seen in the same vein by other member States.” Still the same China Some analysts say it is unclear how much progress can be made in repairing what has long been a strained relationship between Europe and China, however. “After all, this is still the same China that the EU had to deal with for the past few years – China that is supporting Russia, China that is threatening Europe’s industrial power, and China that is imposing sanctions on European officials and civil society organisations,” the European Council on Foreign Relations’ Bachulska said. Eurasia Group’s Bremmer added that, in the end, Beijing’s efforts to restore relations with Europe aligns with its wider objective to weaken the West as a whole by undermining the bond between Europe an the U.S. “Europeans will not be driven away from the U.S. by transactional policies embraced in Washington, but openly hostile, predatory ones,” he said. “If that trend continues, the transatlantic partners are heading towards a split.” Source link #Trumps #protectionist #policies #push #Europe #China Pelican News View the full article at [Hidden Content] For verified travel tips and real support, visit: [Hidden Content]
  5. Jack Daniel’s maker says Canada pulling US alcohol off shelves ‘worse than tariff’ Jack Daniel’s maker says Canada pulling US alcohol off shelves ‘worse than tariff’ By Savyata Mishra (Reuters) – Jack Daniel’s maker Brown-Forman’s CEO Lawson Whiting said on Wednesday ********* provinces taking American liquor off store shelves was “worse than a tariff” and a “disproportionate response” to levies imposed by the Trump administration. Several ********* provinces have taken U.S. liquor off store shelves as part of retaliatory measures against President Donald Trump’s tariffs. Canadians are steering away from U.S. goods, sports events and trips following the recent imposition of tariffs, which have left them stirred, despite the deep ties between the two countries. “I mean, that’s worse than a tariff, because it’s literally taking your sales away, (and) completely removing our products from the shelves,” Whiting said on a post-earnings call. Canada accounted for only 1% of the company’s total sales, Whiting said, so the company can withstand the hit. Canada on Tuesday also imposed 25% tariffs on goods imported from the U.S., including wine, spirits, and beer. Whiting added the company would watch out for what happens in Mexico, which according to its annual report, made up 7% of its 2024 sales. Canadians have been increasingly looking to support locals by adapting different ways such as boycotting alcohol brands from the U.S. to altering kitchen pantry with local products. Shares of Brown-Forman were marginally down in extended trading. The liquor maker reaffirmed its annual forecasts, which accounted for the impact of tariffs. While Whiting warned of “continued uncertainty and headwinds in the external environment,” he said that he was confident of the company’s trajectory. Brown-Forman has been reeling from a slowdown in demand so far this year, led by the U.S., Canada and Europe, which offset benefits from stronger sales in emerging markets such as Mexico and Poland. The company has undertaken cost-cutting measures, including workforce reduction. Analysts have said this is a response to a more challenging environment both for the company and the broader spirits industry. Net sales fell 3% from a year ago to $1.04 billion, compared with analysts’ estimate of $1.07 billion, according to data compiled by LSEG. For fiscal 2025, Brown-Forman expects net sales growth in the range of 2% to 4%.

  7. South Korea’s mint has supply constraints South Korea’s mint has supply constraints Gold bars arranged at the Korea Gold Exchange store in Seoul, South Korea. SeongJoon Cho | Bloomberg | Getty Images South Korea’s state-run mint is grappling with a gold bar shortage amid robust demand for the precious metal. The Korea Minting and Security Printing Corporation (KOMSCO), which is responsible for the production and distribution of various security products, suspended sales of gold bars last month. KOMSCO attributed the suspension to issues with procuring supply of raw materials, according to a Google translation of the notice on its website. The mint typically supplies bullion bars to Korea’s commercial banks, stores and online shopping malls. Vending machines in the capital of Seoul reportedly sold out of fingernail-sized gold bars, according to local media outlets, as consumers scrambled to purchase the safe-haven asset. “The sudden spike in gold demand in South Korea has led to Korean banks to temporarily suspend gold bar sales at the request of KOMSCO as there are not enough gold bars in the country to fulfil local demand,” said Robin Tsui, APAC gold strategist at State Street Global Advisors. Demand is largely being driven by retail investors, industry watchers told CNBC, with many piling into the asset as a hedge against domestic political turmoil and concerns of economic and geopolitical uncertainty sparked by U.S. President Donald Trump’s tariffs. If you’re concerned about your currency devaluing, you switch to gold. If you’re not confident about your stock market, you would switch to gold. South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol is currently awaiting an impeachment verdict after his short-lived declaration of martial law on Dec. 3. Lawmakers also voted to impeach acting president Han Duck-soo late last year, plunging the country into renewed political turbulence. South Korea’s second acting president after Han, Choi Sang-mok, has faced some opposition from the public over what they see as actions to hinder efforts to apprehend Yoon. South Korea’s domestic turmoil has corresponded with Trump’s return to the White House and, along with it, the prospect of an escalating trade war. Gold’s proven hedge against local currency depreciation has led to higher demand amid a “rapid depreciation” of the Korean won, especially in the last quarter of 2024, said Ray Jia, a research head at the World Gold Council. An advertisment for gold bars at the Korea Gold Exchange store in Seoul, South Korea, on Friday, Oct. 13, 2023. Bloomberg | Bloomberg | Getty Images Bar and coin investment in South Korea surged 29% in the fourth quarter of last year to 5.9 tons, according to data provided from World Gold Council, which coincided with an 11% depreciation of the Korean won against the U.S. dollar during the time, LSEG data showed. Meantime, market watchers told CNBC that South Korea’s equity market hadn’t been too exciting for local investors. “If you’re concerned about your currency devaluing, you switch to gold. If you’re not confident about your stock market, you would switch to gold,” said Bernard Dahdah, precious metals analyst at Natixis. While South Korea’s benchmark Kospi has registered a 2% climb since Dec. 3, the index saw an exodus of 224.88 billion won ($155.9 million) among individual investors between Dec. 3 to March 5, according to data from the stock exchange. This contrasts to a 10% gain in spot gold prices over the same *******. “Gold’s superior returns over domestic equities has driven more demand for gold,” State Street Global Advisors’ Tsui said. Regional shortages of gold While acknowledging the higher demand for gold in recent months, some say that it is also very much a broader supply issue. Strong U.S. demand for gold in recent months has been redirecting bullion out of several countries as traders try to stockpile it in preparation for Trump’s tariffs on Canada and Mexico. “There are regional shortages of gold, led by London but now also South Korea, because metal is going to the U.S. and thus there’s less supply in those markets,” said MKS Pamp’s head of strategy Nicky Shiels. Korean refineries and wholesalers probably got a phone call and said: ‘We will buy your entire stock off you at a good premium, stick it on a plane and send it to New York.’ John Reade World Gold Council A complicating factor is that traders hoping to move gold into the U.S. Comex depositories largely make deliveries via kilogram bars, which are usually available only in select regions in Asia and Middle East. “Korean refineries and wholesalers probably got a phone call and said: ‘We will buy your entire stock off you at a good premium, stick it on a plane and send it to New York,'” said World Gold Council’s market strategist for Asia and Europe, John Reade. Additionally, a higher incentive to produce the larger kilobars typically accepted by Comex warehouses may be prompting refineries to switch to producing these ******* bars for shipment instead, Tsui said.

  9. Khawaja continues late-season surge with Shield ton Khawaja continues late-season surge with Shield ton Usman Khawaja has continued his late-season resurgence, scoring a century for Queensland on day one of their must-win Sheffield Shield match against Tasmania. Khawaja took full toll of a controversial decision early in his innings, reaching 100 after tea on Thursday at Bellerive. Queensland were 3-239 in the last session, with Khawaja 115 and Lachie Hearne bringing up his 50. While Queensland are second-last on the Shield ladder and Tasmania are bottom, either side could still be in contention for the final against SA if they have a big win at Hobart. Tasmania won the toss and threatened several times to break through the Queensland top order, but Khawaja batted superbly for his 43rd first-class hundred. He also survived a massive shout from the Tasmanians when he appeared to edge opening bowler Gabe Bell to keeper Jake Doran. Khawaja had only made 11 and the home side was aghast when Shawn Craig ruled not out. The ton continued the 38-year-old’s form upswing after a tough domestic Test series against India, which only featured one half-century. Khawaja rebounded to post his highest Test score of 232 in Sri Lanka in late January to solidify his spot ahead of the June Test championship final against South Africa at Lord’s and next summer’s domestic Ashes series. Test all-rounder Beau Webster had taken two wickets, removing opener Matt Renshaw for 20 and No.3 Jack Clayton. Ben McDermott cruised to 24 but threw away his wicket when he should have dispatched a short ball from Mitch Owen to the boundary, but top-edged to Doran.

  10. Three Michigan brothers missing since 2010 are declared dead by a judge at mom’s request Three Michigan brothers missing since 2010 are declared dead by a judge at mom’s request DETROIT (AP) — A judge declared three Michigan brothers dead Wednesday, more than 14 years after they disappeared at Thanksgiving in a small-town tragedy that remains unsolved despite an explicit belief by investigators that their father is responsible. Lenawee County Judge Catherine Sala granted a request by Tanya Zuvers, the mother of Andrew, Alexander and Tanner Skelton. “This is a case of terrible and longstanding impact on the community of Lenawee,” Sala said. “No condolences will ever be enough for such losses suffered.” Trusted news and daily delights, right in your inbox See for yourself — The Yodel is the go-to source for daily news, entertainment and feel-good stories. But at the same time, the judge rejected a request to also acknowledge that the boys’ father, John Skelton, murdered the children, finding a lack of “clear and convincing evidence” after listening to testimony from law enforcement officers Monday. “The information provided in this trial provides ample opportunity for speculation and theories,” Sala said. “But to make such a finding, the court would only be joining those voices offering such speculation and theory, given the lack of information.” The boys are presumed dead as of Nov. 26, 2015, five years after their disappearance, a key threshold in Michigan law, the judge said. John Skelton, 53, has not been charged with killing his sons. By November, he is expected to complete a 15-year prison sentence for his failure to return the boys to Zuvers, the only conviction so far. Zuvers testified Monday that a formal declaration of death would give her closure and provide “respect” to the boys, who were 9, 7 and 5 in 2010. They disappeared while with their father at Thanksgiving in Morenci, a town along the Ohio border. Skelton and Zuvers were having problems and living apart in Morenci. The boys were supposed to go back to their mom the next day. Instead, they were gone. They have not been found, despite countless searches of woods and water in Michigan and Ohio and tips from across the country. Police said Skelton fed them a long string of lies about the boys’ whereabouts, sending investigators to an old schoolhouse in Kunkle, Ohio, and a dumpster in Holiday City, Ohio. Police said claims that the boys were handed to other people for their safety also turned out to be false. Det. Lt. Jeremy Brewer of the Michigan State Police, who was assigned the case three years later in 2013, testified he has “no doubt whatsoever” that Skelton killed the brothers. Skelton declined to participate in the hearing to have his sons declared dead. “Anything I say isn’t going to make a difference,” he said Monday by video conference from prison. ___ This story has been corrected to say the boys are presumed dead as of Nov. 26, 2015, five years after their disappearance, not 2010. ___ Follow Ed White on X at Source link #Michigan #brothers #missing #declared #dead #judge #moms #request Pelican News View the full article at [Hidden Content]

  12. New Zealand fires *** envoy Phil Goff over Trump comments New Zealand fires *** envoy Phil Goff over Trump comments New Zealand has fired its most senior envoy to the United Kingdom over remarks that questioned US President Donald Trump’s grasp of history. At an event in London on Tuesday, High Commissioner to the *** Phil Goff compared efforts to end the war between Russia and Ukraine to the Munich Agreement of 1938, which allowed Adolf Hitler to annex Czechoslovakia. Goff recalled how Sir Winston Churchill had criticised the agreement, then said of the US leader: “President Trump has restored the bust of Churchill to the Oval Office. But do you think he really understands history?” Goff’s comments were “deeply disappointing” and made his position “untenable”, New Zealand’s Foreign Minister Winston Peters said. Goff’s comments came after Trump paused military aid to Kyiv following a heated exchange with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in the Oval Office last week. He contrasted Trump with Churchill who, while estranged from the British government, spoke against the Munich Agreement as he saw it as a surrender to Nazi Germany’s threats. Goff quoted how Churchill had rebuked then *** Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain: “You had the choice between war and dishonour. You chose dishonour, yet you will have war.” Peters said Goff’s views did not represent those of the New Zealand government. “When you are in that position you represent the government and the policies of the day, you’re not able to free think, you are the face of New Zealand,” local media reported Peters saying. “It’s not the way you behave as the front face of a country, diplomatically,” he said. Goff had been high commissioner since January 2023. Before that, he served in several ministerial portfolios, including justice, foreign affairs and defence. Former Prime Minister Helen Clark criticised Goff’s sacking, saying it was backed by a “very thin excuse”. “I have been at Munich Security Conference recently where many draw parallels between Munich 1938 and US actions now,” she wrote in a post on X.

  13. Broome police officer remains stood aside after internal investigation into Male Oval incident Broome police officer remains stood aside after internal investigation into Male Oval incident A Broome police officer who was captured on video pushing an elderly man to the ground at Male Oval remains stood aside from operational duties after the conclusion of an internal investigation. WA Police confirmed the investigation has been completed and the officer will now be subject to an internal disciplinary process. The incident gained widespread attention after a Broome resident’s video of the altercation was viewed more than 159,000 times within two hours before being removed from social media. The footage showed the officer extending his arm as the man approached before appearing to hook his foot around the man’s ankle and pushing him to the ground. The man then got back on his feet and appeared to lunge forward before stumbling and falling again. The officer subsequently re-entered the police vehicle and drove away. At the time, WA Police confirmed the officer had been “stood aside” while an investigation was under way, with Premier Roger Cook describing the footage as “very confronting”. “The police have confirmed that they’ll be undertaking an investigation and I’ll allow that investigation to take place,” Mr Cook said at the time. “What I saw, it wasn’t appropriate behaviour, but obviously the police will investigate that and look for a speedy investigation and the outcomes of that.” Despite the completion of the investigation, WA Police have declined to disclose any further details about the internal disciplinary process.

  16. North Korea halts tourism just weeks after reopening North Korea halts tourism just weeks after reopening North Korea has stopped tourists from visiting, just weeks after the first Western tourists entered the country for the first time in five years. North Korea sealed itself off at the start of the Covid-19 pandemic in early 2020, and started to scale back restrictions in the middle of 2023. It opened up to Russian visitors in 2024, but it was only last month that Western tourists were allowed into the remote, eastern city Rason. However several tour companies now say that trips to the reclusive country have been cancelled until further notice. Pyongyang has not given a reason for the sudden halt. “Just received news from our Korean partners that Rason is closed to everyone. We will keep you posted,” China-based KTG Tours, which specialises in North Korean tours, said Wednesday on Facebook. Young Pioneer Tours and Koryo Tours were among the other agencies that have announced the suspension. Those planning tours in April and May should refrain from booking flights “until we have more information”, Young Pioneer Tours said in a Facebook post. On 20 February, the first Western tourists started arriving in Rason, a city earmarked by the North as a special economic zone, to trial new financial policies. Tour operators told the BBC the visitors’ movements were even more restricted than on pre-pandemic trips – they had fewer opportunities to wander the streets and talk to locals. Phone signals and internet access were also not available in the hermit state. One tour leader said he suspects Rason was picked because the area is relatively contained and easy to control. Earlier this week, Koryo Tours said it was accepting international applications for the Pyongyang Marathon for the first time in five years. The event is scheduled for 6 April but it is now unclear if these can still be processed. North Korea saw some 350,000 foreign tourists in 2019, of whom 90% were ********, according to media reports.

  17. *********** Prudential Regulation Authority flags tenure limits for superannuation, bank and insurance boards *********** Prudential Regulation Authority flags tenure limits for superannuation, bank and insurance boards Australia’s prudential regulator has proposed a 10-year limit on board roles at superannuation funds, banks and insurers as it pushes to lift governance standards. The *********** Prudential Regulation Authority’s proposal for a limit on non-executive directorship comes as its colleagues at the *********** Securities and Investments Commission grapples with what it claims are chronic shortcomings at some super funds and insurers. APRA warned in a discussion paper released Thursday that overly-long board tenure was likely to erode “a director’s capacity to exercise impartial judgment and to challenge management effectively”. If the proposal becomes official policy, it would force National Australia Bank to find a new chair next year given Phil Chronic joined the board in 2016 and put further pressure on Cbus chair Wayne Swan. Mr Swan joined the industrial super fund as chair in 2022, replacing Steve Bracks after the one-time Victorian had served more than eight years as a chair and more than three years as an ordinary non-executive director. Cbus non-executive director Anne Milner has been on the board since 2014 as a representative of the Master Builders Association, while Plumbing Trade Employees Union federal secretary and Cbus investment committee member Earle Setches has been on the board since October 2013. It could also force changes at giant industry fund AustralianSuper, where *********** Industry representatives Innes Willox and Russell Maddox have been on the board since 2014. Industry funds have long prided themselves on their mix of employer, union and worker representatives on boards that generally have far more members than equivalent-sized corporations. The changes proposed by APRA could also force “significant” financial institutions to engage with the regulator on succession planning and appointments. It said some entities would have to establish more robust requirements for assessing the skills and capabilities of their directors, as well as the fitness and propriety of these officeholders. Some super funds had yet to establish risk committees, while others had boards that did not meet their own skills matrices — including having directors adequately skilled in key areas such as investment and risk management. But APRA said these skills shortcoming were not unique to super funds, saying they were “present in all industry cohorts”. APRA chair John Lonsdale said effective governance was fundamental to financial stability and sound risk management. “The boards of Australia’s banks, insurers and superannuation trustees have enormous responsibilities when it comes to protecting the financial interests of households and businesses,” Mr Lonsdale said. “Well-governed institutions are likely to be more resilient in times of stress, while poor governance can create weakness that leads to misconduct, losses and failures. “It is no coincidence that almost 80 per cent of entities subject to heightened risk-based APRA supervision have underlying governance problems.” Super Members Council chief industry Misha Schubert said her group would “actively contribute” to the APRA discussion paper, but said many of the improvements to practises were already in place. “One notable omission that we’d urge APRA to highlight is the role of strong governance culture, values and board diversity — which are key ingredients in good governance and delivering for super fund members,” she said. Other APRA proposals include extending existing requirements for super trustees in the management of conflicts of interest to banking and insurance. APRA also wants to strengthen board independence, especially in relation to entities that are part of a group and clarify its expectations around the roles of boards, the chair and senior management “While overall standards of governance have improved over recent years, we still see areas of weakness, including entities treating compliance with some requirements as a box-ticking exercise,” Mr Lonsdale. “By articulating our expectations more clearly and strengthening our capacity to ensure compliance with them, we aim to lift governance standards among entities that are lagging best practices and bring them into line with contemporary expectations.” He said APRA wanted to lift standards without adding the governance cost burden and argued most of the proposals would involve little change for entities with strong governance practices already in place. The changes are open to public consultation, with APRA targeting a formal consultation ******* in the first half of next year before they come into force in 2028.

  18. Beloved Bald Eagle Couple Welcomes 2 Chicks While Fans Watch Livestreamed Births Beloved Bald Eagle Couple Welcomes 2 Chicks While Fans Watch Livestreamed Births Live footage of a bald eagle nest has gone viral after one California nonprofit documented the births of two eaglets for hundreds of thousands of viewers. On Tuesday, March 4, the Friends of Big Bear Valley nonprofit announced via Facebook that bald eagles Jackie and Shadow welcomed two chicks. The nonprofit began 24/7 streams of the bald eagle nest in the San Bernardino Mountains and quickly received over 1 million views. This isn’t Jackie and Shadow’s first touch with fame. The two bald eagles became international sensations in 2023 when they were documented nesting their two eggs. Unfortunately, the two eggs were eaten by ravens, the Los Angeles Times reported then. Jackie laid three eggs in 2024, but they did not hatch. Two years later, the two had three new eggs. On Monday, March 3, one of the three eggs hatched. The second eaglet began to hatch on Tuesday afternoon. Friends of Big Bear Valley Big Bear Bald Eagles Related: Poppy, the Internet’s New Favorite Pygmy Hippo, Finally Has Her Own Livestream: Here’s How to Watch “Chick #2 has joined [the] party!” Friends of Big Bear Valley shared on Tuesday. “By the wee hours this morning, Chick #1 had become a fluffy fuzz ball as it’s downy covering dried into a soft gray coat.” “Then Chick #2 started ‘zippering’ its way out of the shell,” read the post. “This is the final stage of hatching, as the little one pokes its egg tooth against the shell and uses its feet to spin it around and break a nearly straight line around the shell to crack it fully open.” By 4:29 a.m., the second chick “pushed itself fully out of the shell to emerge into the world!” “Soon after, Shadow called from a distance and Jackie seemed to be happily announcing that he was now Papa to 2 new fluffy chicks,” the post continued. “He couldn’t wait to see them, so dropped in right at sunrise…and got his first look at his 2 gorgeous babies.” “He looked back and forth over them a few times before even moving in to settle on top,” the post read. “Then those tiny bundles kept moving around under there and Shadow had to rearrange himself a few times before he could get settled.” As of Tuesday, the third egg had remained unhatched for 35 days. However, the nonprofit said it will continue to look for “signs of pipping in that egg.” The third egg could hatch next week, per the Los Angeles Times. “I’m thrilled that they have hatchlings and they have two chicks after two years of no hatching,” Sandy Steers, the executive director of the Friends of Big Bear Valley, told the Times. “I’m thrilled for everyone watching. People are talking about tears of joy and that’s how I feel.” Friends of Big Bear Valley Big Bear Bald Eagles Related: Pandas Make Their Official Return to the National Zoo — and You Don’t Have to Go to D.C. to See Them Several enthusiastic Facebook users expressed their excitement learning that two eggs hatched. “The world has held its breath for this moment. Congrats to all,” one user wrote. “I’ve been checking in with them all day. Ecstatic isn’t the word! I’m so so happy for them,” another wrote. “They’re such good parents and they deserve this!” One user tagged the nonprofit in the comment and said their first-grade class is watching from Tennessee. “We have been watching since the first egg was laid. We are so excited to see the babies! We want to know if it’s unusual for them to successfully hatch all three eggs,” the comment read. The nonprofit organization replied, “If all three eggs hatch, that would be a first for Jackie and Shadow.” Never miss a story — sign up for PEOPLE’s free daily newsletter to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer​​, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories.

  20. Hong Kong’s top court quashes convictions of pro-democracy Tiananmen group Hong Kong’s top court quashes convictions of pro-democracy Tiananmen group Campaigners attend a protest and candlelit vigil at ******** Embassy London on June 4, 2023. Guy Smallman | Getty Images News | Getty Images Hong Kong’s top court unanimously overturned on Thursday the convictions of three former members of a pro-democracy group that organized an annual candlelight vigil to mark China’s 1989 Tiananmen Square crackdown, citing a miscarriage of justice. The ruling is a rare victory for Hong Kong’s pro-democracy movement in which scores of activists have been jailed or forced into exile, with many liberal and popular civil society groups shuttered. In their judgment, the five judges of the Court of Final Appeal, led by Chief Justice Andrew Cheung, said government prosecutors had redacted key facts. That had “deprived the appellants of a fair trial, so that their convictions involved a miscarriage of justice,” they added. The now disbanded Hong Kong Alliance in Support of Patriotic Democratic Movements in China used to organize the annual candlelight vigil to commemorate those who died in the bloody crackdown in and around Beijing’s Tiananmen Square in 1989. Former vice-chairperson Chow Hang Tung, 40, and two other former executive committee members ***** Ngok-kwan and Tsui Hon-kwong were sentenced to 4-1/2 months in March 2023. They had been found guilty of not complying with a national security police request for information on the Alliance’s members, donors and finances. Chow’s mother expressed gratitude for the ruling. “I hope the world will become better,” Media Chow Lau added. “Everyone should be kind and uphold justice persistently.” ***** welcomed the ruling, saying, “Today we can prove that the Alliance is not a foreign agent … justice is in the hearts of the people,” in remarks to reporters outside the court. The group was designated a “foreign agent” for an unidentified organization after being accused of receiving 20,000 Hong Kong dollars from it. But some key details of the case, such as the identity of overseas organizations and individuals alleged to have ties to the group, were redacted, drawing criticism from the judges. “By redacting the only potential evidential basis for establishing such facts, the prosecution disabled itself from proving its case,” the judges wrote. The national security law imposed by Beijing allows the police chief to seek information believed to be necessary for the prevention and investigation of offences. During the appeal hearing, however, Chow, who represented herself, said the claim that the Alliance was a foreign agent had been difficult to prove because it was untrue. “A deer cannot become a horse just because someone believes it to be,” she added. Chow urged the courts to end complicity in police abuse. “A police state is created by the complicity of the court in endorsing such abuses,” she said. “This kind of complicity must stop now.” Detained since September 2021, Chow has also been charged with incitement to subversion, along with two former Alliance leaders, Albert Ho and Lee Cheuk-yan.

  23. Trump has dropped a high-profile abortion case in Idaho. Here’s what that means Trump has dropped a high-profile abortion case in Idaho. Here’s what that means A yearslong legal battle over the right to an emergency abortion in Idaho has been abruptly upended now that President Donald Trump has moved to drop the high-profile case. Under the Biden administration, the Justice Department had argued that emergency-room doctors treating pregnant women had to provide terminations if it was needed to save their lives or to avoid serious health consequences. Yet a little more than a month after taking over the White House, Trump’s decision to abandon the legal fight signals how the Republican administration plans on interpreting federal law designed to protect urgent care when up against states’ abortion bans. Trusted news and daily delights, right in your inbox See for yourself — The Yodel is the go-to source for daily news, entertainment and feel-good stories. Here’s what to know: How did we get here? In 2022, the U.S. Supreme Court overturned the constitutional right to an abortion. The ruling came down while President Joe Biden, a Democrat, was in office, but many of the justices who helped reverse Roe v. Wade were appointed under Trump. So in response, Biden warned that his administration considered abortion part of the stabilizing care that federal law requires facilities to provide to patients who show up at an emergency room. A month later, Biden sued Idaho, which had enacted an abortion ban that makes it a crime with a prison term of up to five years for anyone who performs or assists in an abortion. The Biden administration argued that Idaho’s abortion ban prevented ER doctors from offering an abortion if a woman needs one in a medical emergency. But Idaho’s attorney general has pointed out that federal law also requires hospitals to consider the health of the “unborn child” in its treatment, too. The lawsuit has twisted and turned in the legal system ever since. Last year, the Supreme Court agreed to step into the Idaho case, but it handed down a narrow ruling: Hospitals were allowed to make determinations about emergency pregnancy terminations, but the key legal question about what care hospitals should legally provide remains unresolved. Tell me more about this federal law Known as the Emergency Medical Treatment and Active Labor Act, or EMTALA, the 1986 law requires emergency rooms to offer a medical exam if you turn up at their facility. The law applies to any ERs that accept Medicare funding — so nearly all of them. Those ERs are also required to stabilize patients experiencing a medical emergency before discharging or transferring them. Notably, if the ER doesn’t have the resources or staff to treat a patient, medical staffers must arrange a medical transfer to another hospital — they can’t simply direct a patient to go elsewhere. EMTALA is more scrutinized than ever since Roe was overturned. Multiple doctors and families have told The Associated Press about pregnant women with dangerous medical conditions showing up in hospitals and doctors’ offices only to be denied the abortions that could help treat them. Some women described facing harmful delays. Has Trump said why he’s dropping the case? Not yet. And the DOJ’s three-page motion didn’t explain why they wanted to abandon the lawsuit either. However, since having a hand in revoking the constitutional right to abortion, Trump has repeatedly touted his support of leaving abortion regulations up to the states. Meanwhile, ending the effort to use federal law to protect emergency abortions was a goal of Project 2025, the blueprint created by the Heritage Foundation for a second Trump term, which calls for reversing what it describes as “distorted pro-abortion” interpretations of federal law. Trump insisted during his 2024 presidential campaign that Project 2025 was not part of his agenda. “Their move to drop this case against Idaho I think really shows what their true priorities are — and it is to push an anti-abortion political agenda rather than support the lives, health and well being of pregnant women and people, not just in Idaho but across the country because this case does have far-reaching impact,” said Brittany Fonteno, president and CEO of the National Abortion Federation, an association of abortion providers. What’s going on elsewhere? Trump’s decision to drop the Idaho case comes several months after the Supreme Court said the federal government couldn’t require hospitals to provide pregnancy terminations when it would violate Texas’ abortion ban. Texas had sued over the Biden administration’s enforcement of EMTALA, and a lower federal court eventually sided with the state. But similar to the case in Idaho, the Supreme Court stopped short of deciding whether the federal law can supersede a state’s abortion ban. Meanwhile, concern has grown over whether Trump’s decision in the Idaho case is a sign that his administration may also reverse course in a longstanding legal battle over telehealth access to mifepristone, the medication used in the nation’s most common abortion method. The Department of Justice under Biden had sought to dismiss a complaint brought by a handful states seeking to roll back access to mifepristone. It’s currently unclear how Trump plans on proceeding.
