Officers were alerted to the shooting in the city of Glendale just after midnight by ShotSpotter, a gunfire detection system used by the police department. The mother, her 5-year-old daughter and the boyfriend, who were in the car at the time of the shooting, were not injured, police said. In recent years, the number of children killed by gunfire nationwide has significantly increased. From 2019 to 2020, gun-related deaths for children younger than 14 rose by at least 47 percent, according to the U....

Though operations resumed Thursday on the pipeline, gas pumps remained shrouded in plastic bags across several states, including Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina and Georgia, the Associated Press reported. The pipeline, which stretches from Texas to New Jersey, delivers up to 45 percent of the fuel consumed on the East Coast. After a ransomware attack created a halt in fuel supplies last Friday, panicked drivers rushed to pumps across several states, resulting in severe shortages and inflated gas prices throughout the week....

Twenty firefighters responded to the blaze at the Ponderosa Pet Resort in Georgetown, Texas, at around 11 p.m. Crews arrived within four minutes of the receiving a call reporting the fire, but were unable to save any of the dogs staying at the facility. “By that time, the facility was engulfed in smoke from the fire. None of the 75 dogs staying at the resort survived,” the Georgetown Fire Department wrote in a Facebook post on Sunday....

We need to listen to these students and young professionals who dream of finally getting us out of this nuclear peril, which is entering another dangerous phase. There are still close to 14,000 nuclear weapons in the world according to the Arms Control Association. A recently released publication from the Pentagon alarmingly stated, “There is an increased potential for regional conflicts involving nuclear-armed adversaries in several parts of the world and the potential for adversary nuclear escalation in crisis or conflict....

The Sixers beat the Lakers 103-91 on Tuesday for their first win of the season in 19 attempts as Kobe Bryant played what will be his final game in his native Philadelphia. Philly had not won an NBA regular-season game in eight calendar months.

The christening of these actors as “Bond girls” has meant they have become somewhat of a commodity for the spy, assisting him where required, while providing a gorgeous trophy for his arm (this is especially true in the early films). Indeed, many have taken issue with the problematic phrase and the franchise’s often antiquated representation of women on-screen. Finola Kerrigan, Professor of Marketing and Director of the Fashion Business Research Centre at London College of Fashion, who previously worked on a research project charting the evolution of these women, told Newsweek: “The problematic element of ‘Bond girls’ as a term is that it can diminish the individuals playing these roles....

This contrasts the CDC’s report that more than 99 million Americans—38% of all U.S. adults—are fully vaccinated, while 55% of U.S. adults have gotten their first shot. “A new CDC assessment that finds fully vaccinated adults 65 years and older were 94% less likely to be hospitalized with COVID-19 than people of the same age who were not vaccinated,” a CDC release said on Wednesday. “As of April 26, national forecasts predict 158,000-601,000 new #COVID19 cases will likely be reported during the week ending May 22,” the CDC tweeted on Thursday....

Speaking to Newsweek, Vicki Jo Harrison, the president of The International Cat Association (TICA), explained cats like countertops because they smell good and they help satisfy some of their natural instincts, like climbing and jumping. “Cats climb trees and leap long distances to move through their territory, avoid danger, and find food,” Harrison said. So many domesticated cats attempt to maintain these instincts, even when living indoors. But this desire to act on their instincts can often be a nightmare for many households, especially during mealtimes or when hosting dinners and other events where all the action may be taking place around the kitchen area....

Serious illnesses that cause a lack of appetite include cancer, liver disease, kidney disease, heart disease, COPD, hepatitis, HIV, and certain thyroid conditions. Other conditions that trigger a loss of appetite include influenza, the common cold, urinary infections, chest infections, acid reflux, and diabetes.

You can quickly find the support page for your printer by opening Google and searching for “manufacturer model support”. Some printers will need to be plugged into a power source as well. As long as your printer was properly automatically installed, you usually don’t actually need to install anything else. If you’re having issues connecting the printer to the computer, uninstall everything and download the new drivers and install everything all over again....

Clinical trials are ongoing and more studies are needed, but the evidence is compelling. A few other pressure points may also be effective, but most studies focus specifically on the P6 point. If you’ve ever taken someone’s pulse with your fingers on their wrist, that’s about where the P6 pressure point is located. You can slip your 3 fingers on the other side of your wrist to support your thumb. [6] X Research source...

Fortunately, reaching the target is easier than you think. “Servings” are pretty small. While bulky lettuce requires a cup, you get a serving with just half a cup of most chopped fruits and veggies. (And we all know how easy it is to eat half a cup of salsa.) Just six spears of asparagus make a serving, as do eight medium strawberries. For dried fruit, which is dense, a serving is a quarter cup....

The footage shared on Facebook and YouTube shows the nine-foot-long fish breach just below the research vessel of the Atlantic White Shark Conservancy. Senior biologist with the Massachusetts division of marine fisheries, Greg Skomal, shouted “Jesus Christ!” when the fish got just below the vessel’s pulpit where the researchers stood. The shark then lifted part of its body out of the water while someone behind Skomal is left shocked at how close the fish got to them, by shouting “inches, inches, Greg....

To get rid of excess wire, snip off the free ends with the cutter on the pliers, then bend and fold any remaining wire down and out of the way. Single ties are usually suitable for rebar intersections made on the ground. For vertical intersections, such as when forming a concrete wall, use a stronger tying option. [3] X Research source The figure 8 tie is a good choice for both horizontal and vertical rebar intersections....

Most of the credits and deductions currently in the tax code focus on helping parents with the cost of childcare and education. But there’s also a credit—essentially, a more modest version of the one currently in the Biden relief plan—that rewards families for simply having children. And while many of the existing tax breaks are limited by income, not all of them are and, where there are restrictions, in some cases the cutoffs are higher than those for stimulus payments, allowing more parents to qualify....

Pair them with a cozy hoodie and you’re set to go. Try wearing fashionably distressed jeans to look modern, if you feel like it. [1] X Research source You can dress this look up by wearing some cute ankle boots or trying a cool new braid in your hair. Ditch the denim for a party or other nice occasion.

Dawn is a classic example, but you can really use any dish soap that’s designed to wash away grease and oil. Any natural oil will be effective. You could use coconut, avocado, or even soybean oil to help loosen the paint. If you don’t have coconut oil, no worries. You can use olive oil or vegetable oil instead. Make sure you’re in a well-ventilated room to avoid breathing in the paint thinner fumes....

Some experts even recommend adding in a few drops of essential oil, like tea tree oil or rosemary oil. Essential oils can help nourish and moisturize your scalp as well as your hair. [2] X Research source If you have sensitive skin, place a drop or two of your oil onto the inside of your elbow, then leave it there for 24 hours. If you don’t develop any rash or itchiness, the oil is probably fine to use....
