An Algoma Public Health (APH) epidemiologist says more sewage samples need to be analyzed for the presence of COVID-19 in Sault Ste. Marie after a sharp rise in the SARS-CoV-2 viral load last week was followed by a sudden drop. Amanda Perri says the increased viral load since March 24 is the highest concentration the health unit in the city has seen since it first started collecting data at Sault Ste....
Lasers pave the way to finding ancient crust. Curtin University researchers have discovered evidence of a roughly four-billion-year-old piece of the Earth’s crust that exists beneath SW Western Australia by using lasers smaller than a human hair to target tiny grains of mineral extracted from beach sand. The Timescales of Mineral Systems Group at Curtin’s School of Earth and Planetary Sciences, led by Ph.D. student Maximilian Droellner, said lasers were used to vaporize sections of individual grains of the mineral zircon and revealed where the grains had originally eroded from as well as the geological history of the area....
On March 24, WPS members searched a 900-square-foot home on Weatherdon Ave. in the Grant Park neighborhood of Winnipeg. WPS said the search identified a quantity of fentanyl and Percocet tablets, valued at nearly $ 12,000, about $ 30,000 in cash, a switch and other items that could be used for drug trafficking. An additional $ 3,225 and three cell phones were found in the suspect’s vehicle. Joshua Ari Matteo Saunders was arrested and remanded in custody....
The official SHiFT Status Twitter account has been weighted to handle news about multiplayer, crossplay and login to Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands. At the time of writing, most players report a much more consistent experience. However, there are still unresolved issues with matchmaking and crossplay. It also appears that some of the work that has been done to fix connectivity issues has inadvertently affected Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands performance on some platforms....
The health minister apologized for the failures at an NHS hospital where 295 babies died or suffered brain damage and more than a dozen women died. Shrewsbury and the Telford Hospital NHS Trust blamed the mothers for bad results, even for their own deaths, a condemnation report concluded. Poor maternity care has led to nearly 300 preventable infant deaths or brain damage, according to the long-awaited study. And several mothers died after failures in care, while others were forced to have natural births despite the fact that they should have been offered a caesarean section, according to the report on the scandal....
It was only last Wednesday that Pavelko felt confident that the sport would return on the date, a day before the celebration of Ukraine’s independence, that he had set. It was then that the security protocols were finally signed after grueling talks that were not always straightforward. Should fans be allowed in? This question was easy enough to answer during the war. Should the exact time and location of the games be kept secret?...

In another setback for the administration, Finance Minister Ali Sambri resigned a day after his appointment in view of crucial talks scheduled with the International Monetary Fund on a loan program. Rajapaksa ousted his cabinet on Monday and sought to form a unity government as public unrest escalated to manage the heavy-handed economy of the ruling family that led to food and fuel shortages and prolonged power outages. A body of doctors also told the government that there was a severe shortage of medicines that could collapse the health system....
“Recently, my network has gotten a lot of criticism—much of it from itself—because CBS News has hired the ex-president’s former chief of staff Mick Mulvaney to ‘provide political analysis across the network’s broadcasts and platforms,’” explained Mulvaney’s network-mate, Stephen Colbert, on Thursday night’s Late Show. The late-night host then stared directly into the camera and exclaimed, “What the fuck?!” Many have objected to Mulvaney’s cushy CBS News gig given that during his Trump administration tenure, Mulvaney proudly admitted that Trump had engaged in quid pro quo with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky over Biden family dirt; called COVID-19 the media “hoax of the day” in February 2020 despite Congress being briefed on its dangers a month prior; dumped hundreds of thousands of dollars in stock in March 2020, while Trump was telling Americans the economy was in great shape and COVID didn’t pose much of a threat; and penned a Wall Street Journal op-ed promising that should Trump lose the 2020 election, he would concede gracefully....
Lesezeit: 2 Minuten Katzian will sein Geld aus den KV-Verhandlungen zurückbekommen Foto: APA / HERBERT NEUBAUER Als die Frühjahrstarifrunde mit der Elektro-, Elektronik- und Papierindustrie angekündigt wurde, forderten die Arbeitnehmervertreter eine sechsprozentige Lohnerhöhung. Die Arbeitgeber der Elektriker nannten die Nachfrage “mehr als schwer”. Einer vorläufigen Schätzung zufolge stieg die Inflation im März jedoch auf 6,8 %. ÖGB-Chef Wolfgang Kajian wolle bei Tarifverhandlungen einen hohen Inflationsausgleich sehen, sagte er der Österreich-Zeitung....

Several rounds of showers and thunderstorms are expected with localized downpours, but they will likely remain light. The cooler air setup aloft also increases the risk of gutter activity for parts of Lake Erie and Lake Ontario. Storms that develop over these lakes have the potential to create water resources during daylight hours. Isolated storms will continue into Tuesday. Although daytime temperatures will continue to be about seasonally cloudy and above average through Monday, overnight temperatures will continue to be well above normal for this time of year....
While April snow is not uncommon on the East Coast, another period until spring can be disturbing for many who are ready to move on after a winter full of plenty of sleet.

Travel will be significantly affected, especially on Monday morning. More about the timing and effects of this April snowfall, below....
