Police said they were investigating reports that a group of men arrived in a minibus taxi and opened fire on some of the patrons at the bar shortly after midnight on Sunday. The injured have been shifted to Chris Hani Baragwanath Hospital. The number of bullets found at the scene suggests a group of people opened fire on the bar, said Gauteng provincial police commissioner Lt.-Gen. Ilias Mavela. People gather at the scene of the shooting in Soweto....

“I don’t know if he made it home from church,” Howell, 43, wrote in a post. “I’m worried he’s stuck in Dismal. He drives a red Honda Civic.” The Dismal Creek area is in Buchanan County, where local officials said severe flooding late Tuesday and early Wednesday had affected more than 100 homes, landslides had blocked roads and river approaches had washed out. In the middle of the storm, Howell, who lives about three hours from Buchanan County, said she felt helpless....

Politico claims to have seen the draft “opinion”, which, if genuine, is, they say, a “great” and “unwavering denunciation of the 1973 decision”, which guarantees constitutional protection of abortion rights. The report states that the court opinion was written by Judge Samuel Alito and circulated in court. Apparently he says “Roe made a terrible mistake from the beginning.” It is not clear at this stage whether the draft represents the court’s final argument on the matter....

A study, published in medRxiv, sought to identify PASC biomarkers to improve long-term diagnosis of COVID. The team of researchers, from Brigham and Women’s Hospital and Massachusetts General Hospital, found that excess SARS-CoV-2 spike protein in plasma indicates long-lasting COVID-19. The researchers analyzed plasma samples collected from 63 people previously infected with COVID-19, 37 of whom had been diagnosed with PASC. Blood samples were collected at least 2 times no more than 12 months after a positive COVID-19 RT-PCR or antibody test....

The four-year-old pet has been avoiding airport staff, airline officials and animal experts at Boston’s Logan International Airport since he escaped from his cage while chasing some birds. “Whether from fatigue or hunger we will never know, but this morning she let herself be caught,” an airport spokeswoman said. The black cat with green eyes underwent a health check and is now preparing to return to her family. “I’m kind of in disbelief,” said owner Patty Sahli....

Alzheimer ist die häufigste neurodegenerative Erkrankung im Alter. Bis eine Diagnose gestellt werden kann, ist der Abbau von Gehirnzellen jedoch oft schon weit fortgeschritten. Denn derzeit gibt es keine objektiven, einfach zu testenden Biomarker zur Früherkennung. Frühe Anzeichen einer Demenz können durch Gehirnaktivität, Darmflora oder Bluttests identifiziert werden. Diese Verfahren befinden sich jedoch noch in der Erprobungsphase und erfordern häufig komplexe Verfahren und Geräte. Verfahrensschema: Ein Tropfen Amyloidlösung wird auf eine beschichtete Glasoberfläche gegeben und getrocknet....

Stand: 18.07.2022 11:18 Uhr Deutschland leidet unter Energieknappheit. Soll die Laufzeit von Kernkraftwerken verlängert werden? Im Ampelbündnis wird die Debatte immer hitziger. Was sind die Vor- und Nachteile? Von Kirsten Girschick und Cosima Gill, ARD-Hauptstadtstudio Wie steht es um die Ampel zur Laufzeitverlängerung von Kernkraftwerken? Bereits im März erwog das Wirtschafts- und Umweltministerium – beide unter Führung der Grünen – eine Verlängerung des Mandats. Das Fazit: „Eine Verlängerung der Vorlaufzeiten könnte das Problem kaum lösen, und das zu einem sehr hohen finanziellen Aufwand und mit einer Reduzierung der notwendigen Sicherheitskontrollen – und das bei einer risikoreichen Technologie....

During an exchange with Democratic U.S. Rep. Eric Swalwell on restrictions on abortion care, Americans United for Life President Kathryn Glenn Foster told the House Judiciary Committee on July 14 that treating a 10-year-old girl for an abortion after her rape would “affect her life and therefore fall under no exception, it would not be an abortion.” “Hold on,” said MP Swalwell. “Wouldn’t it be abortion if a 10-year-old, with her parents, decided not to have a child as a result of rape?...

The book deal came with an £88,000 advance, but the publisher later “agreed that we would delay publication until a more appropriate time” after his appointment as Foreign Secretary. Guto Harry, Johnson’s communications director, denied rumors that he was taking notes from his five months in Downing Street with the intention of publishing a memoir. Sir Tony Blair’s memoir, A Journey, is believed to have earned him up to £5m, while his spin doctor Alastair Campbell has written an eight-volume diary of his time in office and beyond....

Trevali Mining Corp. based in BC suspended work at the Perkoa mine on April 16, when heavy rains caused flash floods and lost eight underground workers. Search and rescue efforts are ongoing, he said Monday. After visiting the site on Sunday, Burkina Faso Prime Minister Albert Ventraogo said miners had been barred from leaving the country while investigating the cause of the incident. “Precautionary measures have been taken to prevent the mine officials from leaving the country and strict instructions have been given to the Minister of Security,” the prime minister’s office said in a statement....

The pleasure will no doubt be palpable, not least with the remarkable form shown by Leclerc in fending off a challenge from title rival Red Bull’s Max Verstappen. The Dutchman was second at the Red Bull Ring after a definitive display of power for Leclerc and Ferrari, who set a blistering pace at Spielberg. Indeed, Ferrari could have done a one-two only for their hopes to be dashed when Leclerc’s team-mate Carlos Sainz was forced to retire, his engine catching fire near the end....
