Bryan Lee O'Malley shared on social media that Scott Pilgrim Takes Off was a one and done. Fans of the Scott Pilgrim graphic novels and Edgar Wright's 2010 film adaptation were delighted by the prospect of a third version of the beloved series, the Netflix anime Scott Pilgrim Takes Off. So delighted, in fact, that many of those fans hoped that the show might go beyond the scope of the movie and continue the story of Scott, Ramona, Sex Bob-omb, and the whole gang. Unfortunately, Scott Pilgrim creator Bryan Lee O'Malley just dashed those hopes. "It's been one year since Scott Pilgrim Takes Off came out.

‘I’ve been using it’: Expert says your dishwasher is one of the most ‘dangerous’ appliances in your home. This Costco find makes it saferThe Federal Ministry of Health and Social Welfare recently alerted hospitals across Nigeria to the emergence of a new COVID-19 variant, identified as XEC, which has been detected in Australia and has spread to 29 countries globally. The variant is reported to have a growth advantage over other circulating strains, raising concerns about its potential impact on public health. In a directive addressed to the Committee of Chief Medical Directors and Medical Directors, the Ministry called for heightened vigilance in diagnosing patients presenting with COVID-like symptoms. The directive, signed by Dr. O.N. Anuma, Head of the Teaching Hospitals Division, on behalf of the Permanent Secretary of the Federal Ministry of Health and Social Welfare, urged hospitals to activate their alert systems immediately to ensure a high level of suspicion for the new strain. The Ministry also emphasised the importance of preventive measures, including practising proper hand hygiene, washing hands with soap and water, maintaining a safe distance, wearing face masks in public spaces, covering the mouth while coughing, and reporting any fever or persistent coughing to the nearest health facility. In this article, Tribune Online takes a look at some things you should know about the XEC Covid-19 variant according to JameNetwork. The XEC variant, a new recombinant strain of SARS-CoV-2, emerged as a fusion of two Omicron-descendant variants, JN.1 and KP.2. Experts have noted that it shares high genetic similarity with its predecessors, differing by only four amino acid changes. Scientists attributed the emergence of XEC to a process called recombination, where genetic material from different variants combines in individuals infected with multiple strains simultaneously. This phenomenon often occurs in immunocompromised individuals. XEC was first detected in Germany on August 7, 2024. By late September, the World Health Organisation (WHO) classified it as a “variant under monitoring,” indicating it requires close surveillance due to its potential impact on global health. The variant has shown rapid growth in prevalence. Globally, it accounted for 17% of SARS-CoV-2 sequences by mid-October and increased to 28% of cases in the United States by early November, according to health authorities. Fortunately, XEC does not appear to cause more severe symptoms than previous variants. Current COVID-19 vaccines, particularly the latest versions, are expected to remain effective in preventing severe disease associated with this variant. Researchers suggest that XEC may have emerged during large international events such as the EURO 2024 soccer tournament or the Paris Olympics. However, pinpointing the exact origin remains impossible. Laboratory studies revealed that XEC’s reproduction rate is 13% higher than that of KP.3.1.1, the dominant global variant as of early November. This means XEC has the potential to become the leading variant in the coming months. Experiments have revealed that XEC is more skilled at evading immune defences compared to its predecessors, raising concerns about its ability to spread among populations with prior infections or vaccinations.

Joe Sacco: Younger people give me hope. They do not look at Palestine, Israel the same wayOTTAWA - The dismissal of a class-action lawsuit over rules governing the cross-border live bee trade is casting a spotlight on political division within Canada’s beekeeping community. A federal judge has ruled against awarding commercial beekeepers damages from a decades-old partial ban on shipping live honeybees across the Canada-U.S. border, which is in place out of concerns that could bring in aggressive pests and diseases. Beekeepers from Western Canada involved in the suit claim the government’s risk assessments that inform the tight restrictions are hurting their businesses and are blown out of proportion. Michael Paradis of Paradis Honey Ltd., a seven-generation family beekeeping business based in Girouxville, Alta., and one of the representative plaintiffs in the case, said he’s disappointed with the ruling, saying it puts beekeepers in a “dangerous position” since the industry is already in crisis mode. “Canada does not have enough bees and cannot replenish its own stock at all,” he said. “It’s going to mean a lot more hardship for the industry if we cannot get access to the U.S. bees.” Beekeepers were slammed during the COVID-19 pandemic, when fewer airline flights made it harder to import bees and they suffered a nightmare year of winter losses in 2022. Manitoba commercial beekeeper Brent Ash, one of the witnesses in the case, said the ruling will hamper the industry, and makes it especially tough for apiaries in colder parts of the country like the Prairies, where most of Canada’s beekeepers are located. “Climate makes the regional divide difficult to keep those bugs alive over the course of the winter,” he said, noting honeybees are not native to North America. But Steve Moore, president of the Ontario Beekeepers’ Association, said his group worries about the risks of accidentally bringing in antibiotic resistant mites, the import of Africanized honeybees commonly known as killer bees, and a small hive beetle that’s capable of damaging colonies. “In Ontario here, we feel quite strongly that we don’t want to take the risk of it becoming even more challenging if some of these new and emerging threats come into the country in packages,” he said. But he empathizes with the plaintiffs. “When we go into our apiaries, we get stung by our bees. When we come home, we might be stung by a low honey price, stung by rising cost of production or stung by high overwintering losses, with the threat of new and emerging pathogens. So, we’re all facing the same challenges and it’s a challenging time to be a beekeeper,” he said. Even though a ban on U.S. live bee imports expired in 2006, Ottawa has not issued permits for the live worker bee boxes to be brought over the border since. The plaintiffs argued Ottawa owes them duty of care — and hundreds of millions in damages. The judge disagreed. “There is no duty of care owed and no negligence,” Justice Cecily Strickland wrote in a lengthy ruling, adding the plaintiffs failed to establish that Ottawa hurt their businesses. The case has a long history, dating back to a court filing from 2012, and was only certified as a class action in 2017. The problem is even older. Headlines from the 1980s screamed about fears that deadly infectious mites from U.S. states could level Canadian bee populations. Risks to bee health have only compounded since then. A 2003 risk assessment by the regulator found that importing queen bees was less risky, since they are easier to inspect. So, Canada allows imports of queen bees and their worker-bee attendants from the U.S., Chile, Australia, New Zealand, Denmark, Italy and Malta. “Bee packages carry a higher risk of disease introduction because they are shipped with the contents of their hive, which may include mites, parasites and bacteria,” said a statement from the Canadian Food Inspection Agency that welcomed the judge’s ruling. Canada does, however, also allow imports of worker bee packages from Italy, Chile, Australia and New Zealand, which sent Canada some 69,364 kgs of packaged bees in 2023, according to statistics from Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada. But importing from these countries also dramatically drives up import costs due to transportation. One of the plaintiffs, John Gibeau, wrote to CFIA a decade ago complaining that importing more than 1,200 packages for $170,000 would have cost half that if he could have purchased them from California instead. Gibeau said he wasn’t ready to comment since he hasn’t yet digested the ruling. Paradis said the larger issue for him than cost, though, is the quality of the bee stock and the timing of when shipments arrive. “We are looking at bees in the U.S. that are spring bees — young, invigorated bees,” he said, adding that gives them longer lifespans in Canada. While he was disappointed, Paradis said one of the main reasons for the lawsuit was to “bring CFIA to the table and to actually have some discussions” on the import ban, something he said has only happened recently. Canada’s honeybee pollination is estimated to contribute $3.18 billion directly to the economy, but that rises to $7 billion a year when canola pollination is factored in. Canada has some 794,341 beehives. This report by The Canadian Press was first published Dec. 7, 2024.

Supes approve five year CIPScott Turner, President-elect Donald Trump choice to lead the Department of Housing and Urban Development , is a former NFL player who ran the White House Opportunity and Revitalization Council during Trump’s first term. Turner, 52, is the first Black person selected to be a member of the Republican's incoming cabinet. Here are some things to know about Turner: Turner grew up in a Dallas suburb, Richardson, and graduated from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. He was a defensive back and spent nine seasons in the NFL beginning in 1995, playing for the Washington Redskins, San Diego Chargers and Denver Broncos. During offseasons, he worked as an intern then-Rep. Duncan Hunter, R-Calif. After Turner retired in 2004, he worked full time for the congressman. In 2006, Turner ran unsuccessfully as a Republican in California’s 50th Congressional District. Turner joined the Texas House in 2013 as part of a large crop of tea party-supported lawmakers. He tried unsuccessfully to become speaker before he finished his second term in 2016. He did not seek a third term. Turner also worked for a software company in a position called “chief inspiration officer” and said he acted as a professional mentor, pastor, and councilor for the employees and executive team. He has also been a motivational speaker. He and his wife, Robin Turner, founded a nonprofit promoting initiatives to improve childhood literacy. His church, Prestonwood Baptist Church, lists him as an associate pastor. He is also chair of the center for education opportunity at America First Policy Institute, a think tank set up by former Trump administration staffers to lay the groundwork if he won a second term. Trump introduced Turner in April 2019 as the head of the new White House Opportunity and Revitalization Council. Trump credited Turner with “helping to lead an Unprecedented Effort that Transformed our Country’s most distressed communities.” The mission of the council was to coordinate with various federal agencies to attract investment to so-called “Opportunity Zones," which were economically depressed areas eligible to be used for the federal tax incentives. HUD is responsible for addressing the nation’s housing needs. It also is charged with fair housing laws and oversees housing for the poorest Americans, sheltering more than 4.3 million low-income families through public housing, rental subsidy and voucher programs. The agency, with a budget of tens of billions of dollars, runs a multitude of programs that do everything from reducing homelessness to promoting homeownership. It also funds the construction of affordable housing and provides vouchers that allow low income families pay for housing in the private market. During the campaign, Trump focused mostly on the prices of housing, not public housing. He railed against the high cost of housing and said he could make it more affordable by cracking down on illegal immigration and reducing inflation. He also said he would work to reduce regulations on home construction and make some federal land available for residential construction.Saudi Gazette report RIYADH — Minister of Environment, Water and Agriculture and President of 16th Conference of the Parties (COP16) of the United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification (UNCCD) Abdulrahman Alfadley emphasized that Saudi Arabia’s environmental efforts are founded on strategic, methodical planning, culminating in elevating the level of ambition in the goals of the Saudi Green Initiative, which include rehabilitating 40 million hectares of degraded land, equivalent to planting 10 billion trees. He said that over 250,000 hectares have been rehabilitated to date, and more than 115 million trees will be planted by the end of this year. The minister made the remarks during a panel discussion titled "Leadership in climate action and sustainable development” at the International Exhibition and Forum for Afforestation Technologies, held as part of COP16. During the panel discussion, Saudi Arabia’s environmental objectives, initiatives, and strategies, as well as its global roadmap for environmental action and the achievements of the Saudi Green and Middle East Green Initiatives were discussed. Alfadley said that the Kingdom launched a global initiative during its presidency of the Group of Twenty (G20) Summit in 2020 to rehabilitate degraded lands, alongside the Middle East Green Initiative to plant 50 billion trees. The country also developed action plans and mechanisms, including water conservation measures and availability of seeds to meet afforestation targets. He emphasized the importance of the Kingdom's food security strategy, aiming to reduce food waste from 33 percent to 15 percent by 2030, pointing out that the agricultural sector, which accounts for 14 percent of carbon emissions, could significantly reduce emissions by halving food waste and loss. He also indicated that the Kingdom increased its water recycling in agriculture from 500,000 cubic meters to 2 million cubic meters, targeting 90 percent reuse of treated water to promote sustainability and mitigate environmental impacts. The minister highlighted the Kingdom's commitment to the circular economy, waste recycling, and resource preservation, pointing out that Saudi Arabia has successfully eliminated fuel burning for water production, previously consuming around 300,000 barrels per day and, starting next year, the practice will cease entirely. He said that the Kingdom’s water management strategy includes maintaining an annual water budget of 25 billion cubic meters, equivalent to Egypt's Nile River share, while optimizing agricultural crop selection based on water usage. The minister added that the Kingdom has identified 11 strategic crops for local production and established the Saudi Agricultural and Livestock Investment Company (SALIC) to invest in agriculture abroad and enhance global food supplies. These measures have saved approximately 10 billion cubic meters of water annually and set safe water extraction limits until 2030. As part of the Kingdom’s water management policies, he indicated that desalinated water constitutes 65 percent of Saudi Arabia's drinking water supply, and the cost of water production has decreased to one-third of 2016 levels. Treated water is also utilized in afforestation to achieve the Saudi Green Initiative’s goals. The minister emphasized the pivotal role of the private sector, with a 50 percent contribution to afforestation achievements, adding that environmental organizations and green associations in Saudi Arabia have grown 25-fold, further supporting the initiative. He indicated that the Kingdom aims to designate 30 percent of its land and marine areas as protected zones by 2030, surpassing international commitments by more than 18 months. < Previous Page Next Page >

Even with his busy schedule, Herbstreit found time to tune in to the Ole Miss-Florida matchup in Gainesville. For Ole Miss, the stakes couldn’t have been higher, needing a win to keep their College Football Playoff hopes alive. On the other hand, Florida was looking to play spoiler after a Week 12 upset over LSU. The Gators did just that, pulling off another upset (24-17) to improve to 6-5 on the season after previously falling to 4-5. After the game, Herbstreit took to X to share a message, saying Florida head coach Billy Napier should win the Coach of the Year Award. "Can a guy with a team that will finish 7-5 win the coach of the year award?" Herbstreit said. "He should!! Billy Napier and @GatorsFB after being 4-5 and losing 2 straight, have beaten LSU and Ole Miss. So impressive to see this fight from the Gators and their fans after having a tough year. And, oh yeah, DJ Lagway is the REAL DEAL!" Can a guy with a team that will finish 7-5 win the coach of the year award? He should!! Billy Napier and @GatorsFB after being 4-5 and losing 2 straight, have beaten LSU and Ole Miss. So impressive to see this fight from the Gators and their fans after having a tough year. And,... Fans weren't pleased with Herbstreit suggesting Napier as Coach of the Year, especially with the Gators sitting at 6-5 and needing a win over Florida State just to finish 7-5. "Going a little overboard here Kirk," one fan said . "He shouldn’t win the award though, cmon," another wrote . "That record is outrageous." "Slow down there cupcake," added a fan . "No," added another . "Ridiculous." "really Kirk, Cignetti hands down," a fan said . "Hell nawl, he shouldn't," wrote another . © Kirby Lee-USA TODAY Sports The Gators opened the season with blowout losses to Miami and Texas A&M, leading to calls from Florida fans for Napier’s firing . But instead of losing the locker room, he kept his team together, going toe-to-toe against Tennessee and Georgia while pulling off major upsets over LSU and Ole Miss. There’s no denying the job Napier has done this season, navigating the nation’s second-toughest schedule . However, those on social media who are giving Herbstreit a hard time are simply arguing that five losses are not good enough to win the Coach of the Year honors.
