2. With the reduction in the cost of oil in recent weeks, the projection of PREPA’s spending on fuel purchases for the next two months was reduced by $69 million compared to the reconciliation approved at the end of June 2022. The PREB ordered that the amount be credited in favor of customers.

3. PREPA informed the PREB that Naturgy would be paying a penalty for the lack of natural gas supply to the Costa Sur 5 and 6 units during the period from April to June 2022. The PREB ordered that customers be credited more than $14 million as a result.

“The role of the Energy Bureau is to ensure the public interest. In the exercise of this function, the Bureau ensures that the consumer is only charged for the actual costs to produce, transmit and distribute energy, not a penny less, nor a penny more,” PREB Chairman Edison Aviles Deliz said. “Today, once again, the value of having an independent entity with open and transparent processes that supervises the prudence of the decisions made by electric power producers in Puerto Rico is demonstrated.”

he Puerto Rico Energy Bureau (PREB) on Sunday approved a resolution that reduces the cost of electricity service by 2.75 cents per kilowatt hour (KWh) for the next two months.

The resolution is the product of an accelerated reconciliation process that is activated when, at the end of a monthly billing cycle, it is determined that the actual costs of energy purchases or fuel purchases deviated from the billing of the Puerto Rico Electric Power Authority (PREPA) and LUMA Energy by more than $20 million. The savings that the determination represents for an average residential customer that consumes 800 kWh in a month is $22.03, with a cost per kWh of 22.7 cents compared to the current cost of 25.4 cents. The savings will be seen by customers in August and September, which are usually the months with the highest electricity consumption in Puerto Rico.

According to the resolution, the accelerated reconciliation was activated when, at the end of June, LUMA had a deficiency of collections for the purchase of fuel of more than $48 million. However, in the reconciliation conducted by the PREB, that deficiency was compensated with the following three items: 1. PREPA received notification from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) on March 11, informing the PREB that on July 8 it would be increasing the reimbursement for the purchase of more expensive fuel for the operation of PREPA’s plants from 75% to 90% as a result The energy regulator’s resolution is the product of an accelerated reconciliation process of the emergency caused that is activated when, at the end of a monthly billing cycle, it is determined that the actual by the 2020 earthquakes. costs of energy purchases or fuel purchases deviated from the billing of the Puerto Rico The PREB ordered that the Electric Power Authority and LUMA Energy by more than $20 million.

Judge grants a 3rd extension for PREPA debt deal talks

U.S. District Court Judge Laura Taylor Swain

By THE STAR STAFF

T

he judge overseeing the island’s bankruptcy cases under Title III of the Puerto Rico Oversight, Management and Economic Stability Act, generally known as PROMESA, has granted another extension, the third, for stakeholders to reach a debt deal on the Puerto Rico

Electric Power Authority’s (PREPA) $9 billion debt.

U.S. District Court Judge Laura Taylor Swain in a ruling late last week overruled the objections raised against a request from a team of mediators trying to negotiate a debt deal. The mediators and the Financial Oversight and Management Board said they needed more time to reach a settlement.

PREPA’s retirement system (SREAEE by its Spanish initials) and the Unsecured Creditors Committee had objected to the continuation of the mediation, arguing that, among other things, despite their sustaining large debt loads, the mediators have not included them in the talks. The SREAEE noted that the mediators have not invited UTIER, the Electrical Industry and Irrigation Workers Union, to the negotiations.

The court, nonetheless, dismissed the objections and approved the third extension to Aug. 15 for the parties to inform the court whether they have reached a debt deal or not. Upon request, the deadline can be extended to September.

Once the deadline is reached, the parties must inform the court the plan of adjustment, or term sheet for a plan of adjustment, or a litigation schedule, or a declaration and memorandum of law showing cause as to why the court should not consider dismissal of PREPA’s Title III case.

“The Court is mindful that settlement discussions have not progressed with a speed commensurate with the

original desired timetable of all parties and the Court,” the judge said. “The Court also recognizes that the Committee, UTIER, and SREAEE have not, since the previous extension, been involved to the extent they expected. In its reply in support of the notice and request, the Mediation Team acknowledges and addresses these understandable concerns and recognizes that some parties are legitimately frustrated.”

That said, Swain said, the mediation team notes that the oversight board’s latest proposal reflects substantial progress and that it is crucial to continue the mediation process.

“The Court is encouraged by the Oversight Board’s representations that it is formulating proposals for discussion with the Mediation Parties and that it is working with the Mediation Team to set up a mediation session with UTIER and SREAEE during the requested extension period,” the judge said. “The Oversight Board has also indicated that negotiations with the Bondholders will affect any proposals to the Committee, UTIER, and SREAEE.” “In light of the Mediation Team’s statement that the mediation process has resulted in substantial progress, and in light of the Oversight Board’s representations, the Court will not order the commencement of litigation at this juncture,” Swain said. “Therefore, the Objections are overruled.”

LUMA removes lawsuits against it from local to federal court

By THE STAR STAFF

L

UMA Energy has removed from the local courts to the U.S. District Court two consolidated lawsuits that seek damages over the private operator’s performance as operator of the Puerto Rico Electric Power Authority’s (PREPA) transmission and distribution (T&D) system.

On April 13, plaintiffs filed the case captioned Ismael Herrero Domenech and the Class Composed of all Residential Electric Energy Consumers, Customers of LUMA Energy LLC of Puerto Rico; (“the Class”) v. LUMA Energy LLC; Underwriters A,B,C, Richard Doe and Jane Doe and Unknown Defendants.

On April 25, a group of plaintiffs filed the case captioned Wendco of Puerto Rico Inc.; MultiSystem Restaurant Inc.; Restaurant Operators Inc.; Apple Caribe Inc. all for themselves and on behalf of all Merchants doing business in the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico and subscribers of LUMA Energy LLC (Class A); Manuel Couvertié Barrera for himself and on behalf of all residential subscribers of LUMA Energy LLC referred to as (Class B) v. LUMA ENERGY LLC; Underwriters A, B, C; John Doe; Richard Doe. At their bottom, the plaintiffs’ claims are premised upon LUMA’s performance of operation and maintenance services

and its operation of the T&D system. Because the contract between LUMA Energy and the government expressly provides that PREPA shall indemnify LUMA for precisely these types of claims, the class action suit necessarily “could affect

The plaintiffs’ claims are premised on LUMA Energy’s performance of operation and maintenance services and its management of the island’s electricity transmission and distribution system.

PREPA’s rights, liabilities or freedom of action, or otherwise conceivably have an effect on the adjustment of its debts or treatment of the debtor’s property in PREPA’s Title III case,” LUMA said in a court filing.

PREPA has been in bankruptcy since 2017 under Title III of the Puerto Rico Oversight, Management and Economic Stability Act, commonly known as PROMESA, to restructure some $9 billion in debt.

As recognized by the First Circuit, “although the proceeding need not necessarily be against the debtor or against the debtor’s property, if the outcome is one that “could alter the debtor’s rights, liabilities, options, or freedom of action (either positively or negatively)” and “impact . . . the handling and administration of the bankruptcy estate, then the proceeding is related to the bankruptcy,” LUMA Energy said.

“The claims in the putative class Action are incontrovertibly related to” PREPA’s Title III case because the allegations clearly involve the operation of PREPA’s electric power grid and the T&D system, the suit said. “Since June 1, 2021, LUMA has been in charge of operating PREPA’s electric power grid.”

The transfer to federal court would make it more difficult for the suit to be certified as a class action suit because the requisites are more stringent than in the local courts.

Animal shelter to stage fund-raising event

By JOHN McPHAUL jpmcphaul@gmail.com

T

he San Francisco de Asís Animal Sanctuary Inc. (SASFAPR by its Spanish acronym) will celebrate its 14th anniversary on Saturday, Aug. 13 with two drive-throughs, or “servicarros” to receive donations for the 260 dogs and cats it houses that are looking for a home.

The main point for receiving donations will be in front of the SASFAPR facilities, on highway PR-114 in Cabo Rojo, while the second location will be at the headquarters of the Reality Realty company in Santurce. The latter donation point will be operated by the friends of the 100x35 Backpacking Foundation.

SASFAPR is a non-profit organization dedicated to animal welfare that does not apply euthanasia by quota, age or adoptability. The entity is what is known as a “no kill shelter,” and currently houses 260 dogs and cats in search of a permanent home.

“SASFAPR’s monthly operation fluctuates between $22,000 and $25,000, one of the main items being veterinary expenses,” SASFAPR President Dellymar Bernal Martínez said. “This is why, on the occasion of our birthday, we turn to the great hearts of the people who believe in our labor of love, and we invite them to share their blessings with us in the form of donations.”

The shelter, which has a high population of senior tenants, relies on donations to fund its operations and provide its dogs and cats with the veterinary care they require, as well as the love and other attention they need to have a good quality of

life while they wait to be adopted.

On Saturday, Aug. 13, #Sasfapr volunteers and staff will receive donations in front of the organization’s facilities between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. Likewise, the Backpacking Foundation will operate its collection center at Reality Realty in Santurce, at the same time (10 a.m. to 3 p.m.).

“We are excited to be able to collaborate with SASFAPR and contribute to a better future for animals in Puerto Rico, full of love and compassion,” said Wilson Santiago Burgos, president of the Backpackers 100x35 Foundation and a blogger at Mochileando.com. “Wherever there is an opportunity to improve the quality of life of pets, Backpacking will be there, defending their well being.”

The following is a list of the currently most needed items: Wet food (from a can) for adult dogs and cats; wet food (from a can) for puppies and baby cats; cat litter; mop buckets; white vinegar;scouring soap; baby food made from chicken, meat or turkey; sausages; canned tuna; canned chicken; 33- and 39-gallon trash bags; pet dishes; dog collars, leashes and harnesses; ammonia; plastic pools (such as for children); toys for dogs and cats; biscuits or “treats” for dogs and cats; laundry detergent; old newspapers.

Over the past 14 years, the sanctuary has rescued and rehabilitated more than 3,000 animals, sterilized or neutered 5,000 animals in the five clinics it led during the “Spayathon for Puerto Rico,” and has collaborated with more than 20 animal welfare organizations inside and outside of Puerto Rico.

“In this time, we have also achieved the adoption of more

Governor: Health strategy for combating COVID-19, monkeypox is on track

By JOHN McPHAUL jpmcphaul@gmail.com

This disease -- I imagine that soon -- they will be declaring that it is endemic; that is why we are seeing that there is so much transmission because we have already had this virus and its different variants for more than two and a half years.

And the Department of Health is doing its job and what it has to do.”

The governor made his comments after the annual meeting of the Democratic Party of Puerto Rico.

G

ov. Pedro Pierluisi Urrutia said Sunday that the island government’s strategy to minimize COVID-19 and monkeypox infections “is coming along.”

In its latest monkeypox update last Friday, the Department of Health reported that 21 cases had been detected.

“You can see it, it is projected in the media. I see that the Department of Health is carrying out a whole educational process regarding monkeypox,” the governor said in response to questions from the press. “It already has vaccines; they are distributing them and they are available for those who are eligible to receive them. And it is duly informing the people about this disease.”

As for COVID, Pierluisi said that although Puerto Rico has a high infection rate, the hospitals are fully under control and the important thing is to continue getting the message out that the elderly are more vulnerable -- and this is what is seen in the statistics.

“They are the oldest people and they are the ones who in particular have to protect themselves,” the governor said.

“As for the rest of the population, the important thing is that we all act responsibly, and that is what I see in general terms.

“We are confirming that our ticket sales platform suffered a cyberattack,” Hernández said in a written statement.

“At about 11 in the morning our technical team became aware of the beginning of an attack with ‘bots’ that so far everything tends to indicate that the intention was to hoard the tickets for sale but the measures we have taken took the platform out of the service line [offline] to prevent them from achieving their goal.”

Governor: August will be pivotal month for statehood movement

By THE STAR STAFF

A

ugust will be a key month in the fight for statehood, Gov. Pedro Pierluisi Urrutia said Sunday.

There is a status bill currently under evaluation in the U.S. House of Represent-

U.S. Rep. Steny Hoyer (D-Md.)

atives and another has been filed in the U.S. Senate.

Lawmakers in the House recently introduced a bill that would end Puerto Rico’s status as a territory, allowing the island’s residents to choose between three status options. The bill, a result of negotiations between

lawmakers who supported statehood for the territory and lawmakers who wanted to hold a status convention, was formally introduced

by Rep. Raúl Grijalva (D-Ariz.), the chairman of the House Natural Resources Committee.

The bill’s three options for an upcoming status referendum are statehood for Puerto Rico, independence from the United States and “sovereignty in free association with the United States.”

Pierluisi emphasized the role played

by U.S. Rep. Steny Hoyer (D-Md.) in the process and the need to pressure Republican congressmen in Hispanic districts to support the measure.

“That’s why a draft consensus is coming up where top leaders in Congress are coming together, leaders who have never come together on the status issue. I am talking about our resident commissioner [Jenniffer González Colón] and congresswoman Nydia Velázquez [D-N.Y.],” Pierluisi said.

“Of course, there is a great friend of Puerto Rico, who has promoted these negotiations and is the one who, to a certain extent, has managed the process so that this consensus bill reaches the federal House floor and is approved. That’s our friend Steny Hoyer.’’

The Natural Resources Committee re-

cently approved the legislation, which will go to a vote in the next session, which starts in September.

“We have to do the work during the recess of Congress in August,” the governor said. “I am determined, committed, to support the efforts of our colleagues in the Republican Party, because, I confess to you, and I have shared this with Hoyer, […] the vast majority of Democrats are going to support this consensus bill. In other words, they are going to give us the opportunity to vote for statehood and to do so when Congress is committed to implementing the desire of the majority, of our majority, those of us who want equality.”

Recently, U.S. Sen. Roger Wicker (R-Miss.) announced his opposition to the House legislation that would end Puerto Rico’s status as a commonwealth.

Wicker introduced another bill in the upper chamber that would allow Puerto Rico residents to support maintaining the island’s current status. Titled the Puerto Rico Status Act, the alternative legislation would authorize a binding plebiscite vote on four options: independence for Puerto Rico, sovereignty in free association with the United States, statehood, or retaining the status of Puerto Rico as a commonwealth.

Democrats got a climate bill. Joe Manchin got drilling, and more.

By BRAD PLUMER and LISA FRIEDMAN

I

n a twist of fate, Congress is suddenly poised to pass the most ambitious climate bill in U.S. history, largely written by a senator from a coal state who became a millionaire from his family coal business and who has taken more campaign cash from the oil and gas industry than any of his colleagues have.

That senator, Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., managed to win several major concessions for the fossil fuel industry in the $369 billion climate and energy package, which was made public on Wednesday by Senate Democrats. Manchin’s vote is critical in the evenly divided chamber because no Republicans support the bill.

The measure requires the federal government to auction off more public lands and waters for oil drilling. It expands tax credits for carbon capture technology that could allow coal or gas-burning power plants to keep operating with lower emissions. Manchin also secured a promise from Democratic leaders to vote on a separate measure to speed up the process of issuing permits for energy infrastructure, potentially smoothing the way for projects like a natural gas pipeline in West Virginia.

Yet most environmental groups and Democrats were jubilant about the final bill, which would also pump hundreds of billions of dollars into low-carbon energy technologies — like wind turbines, solar panels and electric vehicles — and would put the United States on track to slash its greenhouse gas emissions to roughly 40% below 2005 levels by 2030.

“We just made a deal with Joe Manchin,” said Sen. Brian Schatz, D-Hawaii, who had pushed for more expansive climate provisions.

“I don’t think anybody should have expected that this is the bill I would have written.” But even with the fossil fuel provisions, he said, the measure is “the most significant move in the right direction that the United States has ever taken.”

The legislation, if it passes, is expected to bring big benefits to West Virginia. It would make permanent a federal trust fund to support coal miners with black lung disease. It would offer new incentives for companies to build wind and solar farms in areas where coal mines or coal plants have recently closed. And it would provide generous tax credits for nascent technologies like carbon capture and storage and low-emissions hydrogen fuels, which Manchin has supported.

“Those are his pet projects,” James Van Nostrand, a law professor at West Virginia University, said. “I think he’s going to say, ‘I used my strategic position to bring back benefits for West Virginia.’ And he’ll probably do pretty well in the next election.”

Solar panels on farmland in Grafton, Mass., on May 31, 2022. Along the way to the $369 billion package, Sen. Joe Manchin secured an array of concessions for his state and for the fossil fuel industry.

Manchin has consistently said he is open to tackling climate change, despite representing a deeply conservative state where 69% of voters backed Donald Trump in 2020. But he has also insisted that the country cannot afford to turn its back on fossil fuels altogether.

“We must stop pretending that there is only one way to combat global climate change or achieve American energy independence,” Manchin said in a statement announcing the deal on Wednesday. “As the superpower of the world, it is vital we not undermine our superpower status by removing dependable and affordable fossil fuel energy before new technologies are ready to reliably carry the load.”

Some climate activists called the fossil fuel provisions a “poison pill” that would lock in oil and gas emissions. The bill would require the Interior Department to hold lease sales for oil and gas exploration in the Gulf of Mexico and the Cook Inlet in Alaska. It also requires the department to continue to hold auctions for fossil fuel leases if it plans to approve new wind or solar projects on federal lands.

Those provisions would make it impossible for President Joe Biden to uphold his campaign promise to end new federal oil and gas leasing.

Wenonah Hauter, executive director of Food & Water Action, an advocacy group, said in a statement that the deal “won’t solve the climate crisis, and may make it worse.”

But energy analysts and many of the country’s biggest environmental groups said that any additional emissions from fossil fuel leasing would be dwarfed by the clean-energy provisions in the bill.

Manish Bapna, president of the Natural

Resources Defense Council, said his group’s internal modeling showed that the emissions cuts from the legislation would be as much as 10 times greater than the effects from the support it extends to fossil fuels. He called the fossil fuel provisions “pain points” but said overall the deal was “significantly positive.”

Most notably, experts said, Manchin signed on to a deal that would hasten the demise of coal plants in the United States.

West Virginia remains the nation’s secondlargest producer of coal, but its mining industry has declined sharply over the past decade as electric utilities have closed hundreds of coal plants nationwide because of competition from inexpensive natural gas and renewable power.

Industry leaders said they expected more coal plant closures with the passage of the bill.

“Our preliminary estimates indicate that West Virginia would be one of the states with the largest number of coal retirements due to the wind and solar tax credits,” Michelle Bloodworth, chief executive of America’s Power, an industry trade group, said in a statement.

But these days, there are more former coal miners in West Virginia than current coal miners, and the bill will undoubtedly help them, said Phil Smith, the top lobbyist for the United Mine Workers of America. He praised the permanent funding for the Black Lung Disability Trust Fund as well as the tax credits for carbon capture, a technology that Manchin has called “critical” but that has so far struggled to gain traction because of high costs.

“If we’re going to have coal industry 15, 20, 30 years from now, it is because we have developed carbon capture and deployed it, that’s

just the truth,” Smith said. “Folks out in the coal fields understand that. And the coal companies understand that.”

Smith said the bill’s $4 billion in tax incentives for renewable energy manufacturers to build their factories in former coal fields would directly help the approximately 45,000 miners nationwide who have lost their jobs in the past decade.

He said the impact of those closures had been “devastating” to coal communities.

“To bring good jobs back into the coal fields is good,” he said.

Asked for comment, Manchin’s spokeswoman, Sam Runyon, pointed to those provisions as well as another $5 billion in the package that would allow existing coal-fired power plants to improve their efficiency and adopt environmental controls like scrubbers, which remove pollutants from smokestacks.Those measures to help the coal industry, she noted, come on top of $8.5 billion for carbon capture and storage that Manchin secured as part of a bipartisan infrastructure bill last year.

Over a decade ago, Manchin ran a campaign ad in which he shot a bullet through President Barack Obama’s climate plan, which ultimately failed. So when Biden took office, he knew that Manchin would be his biggest obstacle to passing an ambitious climate change bill.

At every step of the way, Manchin shaped the legislation.

Many Democrats wanted a clean energy standard that would pay electric utilities to replace coal- and gas-fired power plants with renewable power and that would penalize those that didn’t.

But Manchin opposed the measure, so it was scrapped. He vetoed a plan to provide bigger tax credits for consumers who bought union-made electric vehicles, a measure that was opposed

by Toyota Motor, which operates a nonunion plant in West Virginia. And he ensured that the tax credits for electric vehicles could not be used by the wealthiest Americans.

Manchin scaled back but did not eliminate a fee imposed on oil and gas operators for leaks of methane, a powerful greenhouse gas, from wells, pipelines and other infrastructure. He rejected an early plan by Democrats to permanently ban oil drilling in the Atlantic and the Pacific and he ensured that long-standing tax breaks for the fossil fuel industry, which many Democrats wanted to repeal, went untouched.

The climate bill still faces hurdles to passage. It needs approval from all 50 Democratic senators as well as from the House, which has a significant bloc of progressive Democrats who have sharply opposed efforts to expand fossil fuel drilling. But even many of them seemed willing to take the deal.

Biden tests positive for COVID again in ‘rebound’ case

President Joe Biden makes his his first public appearance on Wednesday, July 27, 2022, in the Rose Garden since testing negative for COVID-19.

By PETER BAKER and NOAH WEILAND

P

resident Joe Biden tested positive for the coronavirus again Saturday morning, becoming the latest example of a rebound case after taking the Paxlovid treatment that has otherwise been credited with broadly impressive results in fighting the virus and suppressing its worst effects.

“The president has experienced no reemergence of symptoms and continues to feel quite well,” Dr. Kevin O’Connor, the White House physician, said in a memo released by the press office. “This being the case, there is no reason to reinitiate treatment at this time, but we will obviously continue close observation.”

The “‘rebound’ positivity,” as O’Connor termed it, meant that Biden was forced to resume “strict isolation procedures” in keeping with medical advice. The White House announced that the president would no longer travel to his home in Wilmington, Delaware, on Sunday as planned or make a scheduled visit to Michigan on Tuesday to promote newly passed legislation supporting the domestic semiconductor industry.

Biden played down the development. “Folks, today I tested positive for COVID again,” he wrote on Twitter. “This happens with a small minority of folks. I’ve got no symptoms but I am going to isolate for the safety of everyone around me. I’m still at work, and will be back on the road soon.”

The White House later posted a video of the president on the Truman Balcony with his dog Commander, and he appeared well. “I’m feeling fine,” he said. “Everything’s good.”

Biden first tested positive for COVID-19 on July 21 and experienced a sore throat, runny nose, cough, body aches and fatigue. After five days of isolation, he tested negative Tuesday evening and returned to the Oval Office on Wednesday, declaring that his relatively mild case demonstrated how much progress had been made in fighting the virus that has killed more than

1 million Americans.

But doctors were watching for signs of a rebound case and made sure to keep testing him every day. He tested negative Wednesday, Thursday and Friday before receiving a positive antigen result Saturday morning.

Paxlovid rebound has become a source of debate within the scientific community and among COVID-19 patients.

Initial clinical studies of the drug, which is made by Pfizer, suggested that about 1% to 2% of those treated with Paxlovid experienced symptoms again. A study published in June that has not yet been peer-reviewed found that of 13,644 adults, about 5% tested positive again within 30 days and 6% experienced symptoms again.

But the anecdotal accounts of Paxlovid rebound — including a case involving Dr. Anthony Fauci, the president’s chief medical adviser — have echoed widely, causing many to wonder whether the reported data was still accurate as the new and much more contagious BA.5 subvariant sweeps through communities and reinfects even patients who recently recovered from COVID-19.

“I think this was predictable,” Dr. Jonathan Reiner, a prominent cardiologist and professor of medicine and surgery at George Washington University Hospital, wrote on Twitter on Saturday after the president’s positive test was disclosed.

He added that “the prior data suggesting ‘rebound’ Paxlovid positivity in the low single digits is outdated” and that the real number was likely significantly higher.

Either way, experts stressed that Paxlovid had been notably successful in preventing more severe COVID-19 illnesses and hospitalizations. And a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention study published in June reported that symptoms from a rebound tended to be milder than during the primary infection and unlikely to lead to hospitalization.

“While we continue to monitor real-world data, we remain very confident in the treatment’s effectiveness at preventing severe outcomes from COVID-19,” Amy Rose, a Pfizer spokesperson, said in a statement Saturday.

The CDC issued an emergency health advisory in May that said people experiencing a rebound case “should restart isolation and isolate again” for at least five days, reflecting the agency’s general isolation recommendations for people infected with the virus. The advisory also said that rebounding did not represent reinfection with the virus or resistance to Paxlovid.

Dr. Paul Auwaerter, clinical director in the infectious diseases division at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, said it was unlikely that Biden, who has been fully vaccinated and boosted twice, would become seriously ill. He added that scientists were working to explain why some people experience a rebound of the virus.

Biden’s rebound case will complicate his effort to turn his illness into a positive story. As the oldest president in the nation’s history, Biden, 79, has been eager to show that he remains fit, especially as he forecasts plans to run for a second term in 2024.

He continued to work from the White House residence during his first isolation, appearing by video before several groups, and then made a triumphal return to work in person Wednesday.

Instead of the narrative of beating the virus, however, the president’s rebound case reinforces the unpleasant reality that the pandemic refuses to go away. Although the death toll has fallen dramatically, COVID-19 remains a fact of life for Americans, some of whom have been infected multiple times.

Biden’s new positive test may also raise questions about his fidelity to precautions against infecting others after returning to the office. Aides said he would wear a mask while with others, but in every public appearance he made since Wednesday, his face remained uncovered.

Aides said that he was socially distant from others and that he was cautious to avoid exposing aides, Secret Service agents and members of the household staff. The White House Medical Unit found that 17 people had been in close contact with Biden before his initial positive test, but as of Wednesday, none had tested positive.

While the president did not wear a mask in the video Saturday, a photograph released by the White House showed him wearing one as he signed a disaster declaration responding to flooding in Kentucky.

Auwaerter said Biden might not have put others at great risk in the past few days even without wearing a mask, since he was being tested for the virus regularly and was testing negative. For those not testing as regularly, he said, it would be prudent to continue wearing a tight-fitting and high-quality mask, particularly around high-risk people, because of how infectious omicron subvariants can be.

But the new positive test will also set back Biden’s efforts to get back on the road to promote his agenda and campaign for Democrats facing an uphill struggle to keep control of both houses of Congress in this fall’s midterm elections.

The president, whose approval rating stood at 33% in a New York Times/Siena College poll in July, has been described as eager to travel the country after a spate of foreign trips, but the renewed isolation will delay that further.

‘We keep getting hit’: Flooded Kentucky grows weary after another natural disaster

By TRICIA FULKS KELLEY, RICK ROJAS and CAMPBELL ROBERTSON

F

irefighters and National Guard crews have swarmed into eastern Kentucky after days of deadly flooding, rescuing by the hundreds people who found themselves trapped in the perilous water.

Also preparing to send a delegation: the tiny community of Bremen, Kentucky, nearly 300 miles away. When Bremen was shredded last year by one of the worst tornadoes in state history, the mayor from a little town in the eastern part of the state came to help with the cleanup. That town, Hindman, was among the hardest hit in last week’s floods.

So the mayor of Bremen immediately began planning trips across the state with trucks full of supplies — even as his own community continued to rebuild.

“I said, ‘You were here in December and helped us,’” Mayor Allen Miller of Bremen told the mayor of Hindman in a phone call. “‘Now it’s time for me to return the favor.’”

Officials have held up efforts like these as a testament to a kind of generosity ingrained in the culture of Kentucky, a spirit forged over generations of hardship in which communities had to rely on one another to pull through.

But that cycle of support is also a grave reminder of the turbulence wrought by natural disaster that has gripped the state in recent months and will make recovery from the latest calamity all the more difficult. Officials said Saturday that at least 25 people had been killed in the floods, but it could take weeks for the full magnitude of the human toll and physical devastation to become clear.

“I wish I could tell you why we keep getting hit here in Kentucky,” Gov. Andy Beshear said during a briefing in which he updated residents on the rising death toll and displayed a sense of anguish and exhaustion that many in the state have felt after recurring disasters, including a powerful ice storm last year that cut off power to 150,000 people in eastern Kentucky, a flash flood last July that left many stranded in their homes and the rare December tornadoes that carved a nearly 200-mile path of destruction and killed 80 people.

“I wish I could tell you why areas where people may not have much continue to get hit and lose everything,” the governor went on. “I can’t give you the why, but I know what we do in response to it. And the answer is

everything we can.”

These disasters — particularly the flooding and tornadoes — would be staggering setbacks for any community. But here, they have been especially calamitous, striking rural areas that were already deeply vulnerable after decades of decline.

“These places were not thriving before,” said Jason Bailey, executive director of the Kentucky Center for Economic Policy, a nonpartisan think tank, noting the erosion of the coal industry and loss of manufacturing jobs. “To even get back to where they were is a long road.”

For communities inundated by the powerful floods, that road has only begun.

The worst of the devastation has been concentrated in roughly a half-dozen counties in the Appalachian region on the eastern edge of the state. At least 14 people, including four children, died in Knott County, officials said.

More than 1,400 people have been rescued by boat and helicopter, and thousands remain without electricity.

Homes were pulled from their foundations. Bridges have washed out, leaving some remote communities inaccessible. “I’ve seen ditches formed where there weren’t ditches because of the rushing water,” said Dan Mosley, the judge-executive for Harlan County.

In Breathitt County, at least four deaths had been confirmed, roughly a dozen people were missing and much of the county remained underwater. Many homes in the sparsely populated county were still inaccessible. The community was already struggling to find its footing after the last flood.

“We had another flood, a record flood, not 12 months ago, and a lot of families had just started getting their lives back on track,” said Hargis Epperson, the county coroner.

“Now it’s happened all over again, worse this time. Everybody’s lost everything, twice.”

In Hazard, a city of just more than 5,200 people in Perry County, 24 adults, five children and four dogs had taken shelter at First Presbyterian Church — a number that was almost certain to climb in the coming days.

Their homes had been flooded or wiped out by a mudslide.

Some of them arrived soaking wet and caked in mud, said Tracy Counts, a Red Cross worker at the church. All she had to offer them was baby wipes; there was no running water.

“I know people have this image of eas-

A heavily damaged building in Jackson, Ky., on Saturday. tern Kentucky,” Counts said, acknowledging the painful perception among outsiders of the region as poor and backward. “But we are the first ones to step up. We are the first ones to ask, ‘How can we help?’”

But now, an onslaught of disasters was testing that spirit of support in profound ways.

It is difficult to link a single weather event to climate change, but the flooding and tornadoes have highlighted the vulnerabilities that Kentucky faces. For some, it has also underscored the failures to prepare, as experts warn of heavier rainfall, flash floods that are becoming shorter in span but more powerful in magnitude, and weather patterns overall becoming more erratic.

“Let’s be aware that this is a new normal of incredibly catastrophic events, which are going to hit our most vulnerable communities,” said Alex Gibson, executive director of Appalshop, the arts and education center in Whitesburg, Kentucky, comparing the litany of flooding disasters in eastern Kentucky with the devastation faced by poor island nations around the world in the era of climate change.

In the vast stretches of the state now contending with the aftermaths of flooding and tornadoes, Bailey said, the infrastructure had already been inadequate and the communities had been impoverished. “We have people who are living on the edge,” he said.

“So much of the wealth has been extracted,” he said. “In a topography that has been stripped, literally, of trees and mountainsides,

flooding in particular becomes more likely, more risky, more dangerous — that’s what we’re seeing.”

And as much as the communities want to rely on one another to recover from the devastation, it would be difficult to summon the necessary resources on their own.

“The strain has been immense,” Mosley, who is also an officer in the Kentucky Association of Counties, said of the widespread consequences from major disasters.

Without outside support, “this would be unsurvivable,” he said. “The federal government’s resources and our faith in God is the only thing that’s going to get us through this.”

‘Sad and mad’: Kansas abortion vote could preview post-Roe sentiment

By KATIE GLUECK

I

n the final days before Kansans decide whether to remove abortion-rights protections from their state constitution, the politically competitive Kansas City suburbs have become hotbeds of activism.

In neighborhoods where yard signs often tout high school sports teams, dueling abortion-related messages now also dot front lawns. A cafe known for its chocolates and cheese pie has become a haven for abortion-rights supporters and a source of ire for opponents. Signs have been stolen, a Catholic church was vandalized this month and tension is palpable on the cusp of the first major vote on the abortion issue since Roe v. Wade was overturned in June.

“I’m really sad that that happened,” said Leslie Schmitz, 54, of Olathe, speaking of the abortion-access landscape. “And mad. Sad and mad.”

There may be no greater motivator in modern American politics than anger. And for months, Republican voters enraged by the Biden administration have been explosively energized about this year’s elections. Democrats, meanwhile, have confronted erosion with their base and significant challenges with independent voters.

But interviews with more than 40 voters in populous Johnson County, Kansas, this past week show that after the fall of Roe, Republicans no longer have a monopoly on fury — especially in states where abortion rights are clearly on the ballot and particularly in the battleground suburbs.

“I feel pretty strongly about this,” said Chris Price, 46, a political independent who said he voted for Mitt Romney for president in 2012 before backing Democrats when Donald Trump was on the ballot. “The candidates that would support an abortion ban, I would not be supporting at all. Period.”

Asked if threats to abortion rights had affected how motivated she felt about engaging in the midterm elections this fall, Natalie Roberts-Wilner, a Democrat from Merriam, added, “Yes. Yes. Yes. Definitely.”

On Tuesday, Kansans will vote on a constitutional amendment that, if it passes, could give the Republicandominated Legislature the ability to push new abortion restrictions or to outlaw the procedure entirely. Nearby states including Missouri — which is separated from some competitive Kansas suburbs by State Line Road, a thoroughfare dotted with abortion-related yard signs — have already enacted near-total bans.

The vote is open to unaffiliated Kansans as well as partisans. And whatever the outcome, activists on both sides caution against drawing sweeping national conclusions from an August ballot question, given complex crosscurrents at play.

The amendment language itself has been criticized as confusing, and in an overwhelmingly Republican state,

Poll workers collect ballots from drive up ballot boxes in Olathe, Kan., On July 28, 2022. On Tuesday, Kansans will decide whether to pass a constitutional amendment that could lead to far-reaching abortion restrictions or an outright ban on the procedure.

Democrats and unaffiliated voters are less accustomed to voting on primary day. On the other hand, a few voters said they would vote no on the amendment but could back Republicans in November — a sign that some who support abortion rights still weigh other political issues more heavily in elections. And nationally, a Washington Post-Schar School poll released Friday found that Republicans and opponents of abortion were more likely to vote in November.

But there is no question that the abortion debate in the state’s most populous county — located in the state’s 3rd Congressional District, one of the nation’s most competitive congressional seats — offers the first significant national test of how the issue is resonating in suburban swing territory.

Like other highly educated, moderate areas — from suburban Philadelphia to Orange County, California — the 3rd District is home to a substantial number of centerright voters who, like Price, were comfortable with Romney in 2012. But they embraced Democrats in the 2018

midterms, including Gov. Laura Kelly and Rep. Sharice Davids, and many have recoiled from Trump.

Limited public polling has shown a fairly close if unpredictable race.

“It appears that the ‘Yes’ vote still has the lead, but that has narrowed,” said Mike Kuckelman, chair of the Kansas Republican Party. Citing the Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization decision that handed control over abortion rights to the states, he said, “A lot of that is because, I think, the Dobbs decision has incited the pro-choice forces to come out.”

(Other Republicans said the abortion amendment and overturning of Roe did not affect their commitment to voting in other races this year — that they have long been highly engaged.

“No more energized,” said John Morrill, 58, of Overland Park, who supports the amendment. “I was already very energized.”

At the Olathe site, which drew more conservative voters Thursday, Melissa Moore said she was voting for the amendment because of her deeply held beliefs opposing abortion.

“I understand women saying, ‘I need to control my own body,’ but once you have another body in there, that’s their body,” Moore said. But asked how the intense national focus on abortion affected how she thought about voting, she replied, “I tend to always be energized.”

A few others at the early-voting site in Olathe indicated that they were voting against the amendment and were inclined to back Democrats this fall. But they spoke in hushed tones and declined to give full names, citing concerns about professional backlash.

Closer to the Missouri border, patrons at André’s, an upscale Swiss cafe, felt freer to openly express their opposition to the amendment. The restaurant and shop stoked controversy earlier this summer when employees wore “Vote No” stickers or buttons and encouraged patrons to vote, but several lunchtime visitors made clear that they shared those views.

“We just want to make sure people have rights to make choices,” said Silvana Botero, 45, who said that she and a group of about 20 friends were all voting no and that she felt more enthusiastic about voting in November, too.

At a voting site nearby, Shelly Schneider, a 66-yearold Republican, was more politically conflicted. Schneider opposed the amendment but planned to back some Republicans in November. Still, she was open to Kelly, the Democratic governor, especially if the amendment succeeded. Approval of the amendment, she acknowledged, could open the way for potentially far-reaching action from the Legislature.

“I think Laura Kelly is kind of a hedge against anything that might pass,” she said. “She might provide some common sense there.”

Alex Jones puts company behind Infowars empire into bankruptcy

By ELIZABETH WILLIAMSON

F

acing a potential $150 million judgment and two more damages trials for defaming the families of people killed in the 2012 Sandy Hook school shooting, conspiracy broadcaster Alex Jones put his Infowars empire into Chapter 11 bankruptcy late last week.

Last year, Jones lost four defamation lawsuits filed by the families of 10 people killed in the Dec. 14, 2012, shooting at the elementary school in Newtown, Connecticut. Soon after the shooting, he began spreading the bogus theory that the shooting was staged by the government as a pretext for confiscating Americans’ firearms and that the families were complicit in the plot. The families have suffered years of torment from people who believe those false claims.

Judges in Texas and Connecticut ruled Jones liable by default for defying court orders. The losses set the stage for the three jury trials for damages. The first trial began in Austin last week. In it, Neil Heslin and Scarlett Lewis, whose son Jesse Lewis, 6, died in the massacre, have sought $150 million in compensatory damages, plus punitive damages.

Jones and a sidekick, Owen Shroyer, implied on Infowars that Heslin’s recollection of holding his son soon after his murder was a lie.

On Friday, Judge Maya Guerra Gamble of Travis County District Court ordered that the trial continue to a verdict despite the bankruptcy filing, which would otherwise have forced a halt to the litigation.

Lawyers for the families say the bankruptcy filing is another gambit to delay the damages trials in the two remaining cases: one in Texas won by Lenny Pozner and Veronique De La Rosa, whose son Noah Pozner died at Sandy Hook; and the second won in Connecticut by the families of eight Sandy Hook victims. The remaining trials were scheduled for September, with jury selection in the Connecticut case set to begin next week.

“Just two days before jury selection is due to begin in Connecticut, Mr. Jones has once again fled like a coward to bankruptcy court in a transparent attempt to delay facing the families that he has spent years hurting,” Chris Mattei, lawyer for the Sandy Hook families in the Connecticut case, said in a statement.

Alex Jones speaking to the media this past week during a break in his trial in Austin, Texas.

“These families,” his statement went on, “have an endless well of patience and remain determined to hold Mr. Jones accountable in a Connecticut court.”

The bankruptcy filing was in the name of Free Speech Systems, Infowars’ parent company. The petition states that Free Speech Systems has $14 million in assets and $79 million in liabilities. On its list of creditors, the company names several individuals and companies with legal claims against Jones and Infowars, including for defamation.

In April, Jones put three inconsequential Infowars business entities into bankruptcy, a move that a Justice Department monitor called a potential abuse of the federal bankruptcy system. The families said it was an effort to delay

the damages trials. Infowars withdrew the bankruptcy after the families found a legal route around it.

Jones has raised millions from his followers for his legal defense by pleading for their help on his radio and online show. Contributions include an anonymous donation of $8 million in cryptocurrency that Jones said last week that he had already spent. Infowars says it has spent $15 million on legal bills in the Sandy Hook cases, according to Friday’s filing.

Eric Taube, a Texas lawyer who helped create the network of Infowars companies that the Sandy Hook families’ lawyers say are crucial to helping Jones protect his business from the jury verdicts, declined to comment Saturday.

Climate bill could reshape auto and energy industries in the US

Solar panels on rooftops in Honolulu on May 17, 2022. A proposed $369 billion climate and tax package includes money to help consumers pay for rooftop solar panels.

By JACK EWING and IVAN PENN

T

he $369 billion climate and tax package Democrats in the Senate proposed last week could have far-reaching effects on the kinds of cars that Americans drive, where those cars are made and how the country produces its energy. The legislation also aims to break China’s hold on battery supply chains.

The bill, which came back from the dead after Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W.V., unexpectedly dropped his opposition, could greatly accelerate changes already underway in the automotive and energy industries. The proposal aims to simultaneously fight climate change and energize domestic manufacturing. For the most part, it would do so through tax breaks and other incentives — a carrot, rather than stick, approach that is likely to go down more easily in corporate boardrooms and with voters.

Democrats are proposing to expand cash incentives for buyers of electric vehicles, along with billions of dollars for automakers, battery manufacturers and suppliers to build or retool factories in the United States. There is money to help consumers pay for rooftop solar panels, for electric vehicle chargers and for fuel-efficient heat pumps.

Filled with compromises, the proposal

offers something to all sides of the energy industry. There is a 10-year extension of tax credits for wind, solar and other renewable energy and tax credits for carbon capture technology that companies like Exxon Mobil have invested in. The bill would introduce a new fee on methane emissions from oil and gas infrastructure while giving fossil fuel companies access to more leases on federal lands and waters.

But there is more at stake than that, policy analysts said. The legislation also contains a strong dose of industrial policy. It favors companies that get their components and raw materials from the United States or its allies, while effectively excluding China.

Making electric cars more affordable For the auto industry, one of the most important provisions in the climate bill would eliminate a cap on how many cars from each manufacturer are eligible for a $7,500 tax credit that taxpayers get for buying electric vehicles. Currently, the credits are phased out after a manufacturer has sold 200,000 electric or plug-in hybrid vehicles.

Restoring the credits would be huge for Tesla and General Motors, which have used up their quotas, as well as companies like Ford Motor and Toyota that will soon lose access to the credits. The new tax credit, available through 2032, would make vehi-

cles from those companies more affordable and address criticism that only rich people can afford electric cars.

“A big swath of middle-class Americans will be able to get this credit that otherwise would have been blocked out because of the credit limit,” said Joe Britton, executive director of the Zero Emission Transportation Association, whose members include Tesla as well as makers of charging equipment, suppliers of battery materials and other companies tied to the electric vehicle business. “That’s a big deal.”

For the first time, used cars that are battery-powered would qualify for a tax break of up to $4,000. That is important because most people buy secondhand, not new, cars.

The average price of a new electric car has risen above $60,000, out of reach for many buyers even factoring in the fuel and maintenance savings those vehicles provide.

Individuals making more than $150,000 a year or couples earning $300,000 or more would not qualify for incentives for new electric cars. The income limits for the used-car incentive are $75,000 for individuals and $150,000 for couples.

The credits would not apply to sedans that sell for more than $55,000 and vans, pickups and sport utility vehicles listed at more than $80,000.

“They are trying to drive adoption among middle-class and lower-class buyers, and that’s a good thing,” said Akshay Singh, a partner at accounting and consulting firm PwC who specializes in the auto industry.

“That’s where the bulk of the market is.”

The bill, more than 700 pages long, never mentions China. But several provisions appear designed to undermine that country’s hold over the electric vehicle supply chain while making it harder for up-and-coming Chinese carmakers to export cars to the United States.

More support for renewables and fossil fuels For the energy industry, the bill seeks to speed up efforts by most utilities to switch to cleaner sources of power and develop new technologies within the United States while easing the burden of high prices on consumers struggling with inflation.

A recent analysis by Rewiring America, a nonprofit organization that is pushing for electrification of homes and buildings, found that 41% of overall inflation is related to a jump in fossil fuel prices. The organization estimates that 103 million fami-

lies would save money every month, a total of $37 billion a year, just by switching to electric furnaces and water heaters, which would qualify for new tax breaks under the Democrats’ climate bill.

Tax credits are viewed as one of the least expensive ways to reduce carbon emissions. The benefits are worth four times their cost, according to calculations by the Energy Policy Institute at the University of Chicago.

“If we can get this, that’s going to put the United States in a very strong position in meeting the international commitments on climate and industry,” said Dan Reicher, a senior researcher at the Stanford Woods Institute for the Environment.

The measure also includes $60 billion for programs to help disadvantaged communities that often bear the brunt of climate change. Power plants are often in poorer communities, while people who live there lack the means to acquire cleaner technologies.

Any bill this expansive is bound to have opposition. The oil and gas business is not happy with a provision that aims to reduce the amount of methane leaking from wells, pipelines and other equipment. Methane, the main component of natural gas, warms the planet much more than carbon dioxide, though it dissipates faster.

Climate experts have long called for policymakers to do more to rein in methane leaks, but the industry has opposed new regulations and laws, arguing that it is in companies’ financial interest to limit leaks.

The bill would require businesses to pay a penalty of $900 per metric ton of methane emissions that exceeds federal limits in 2024, increasing to $1,500 per metric ton in 2026.

“While there are some improved provisions in the spending package released last night, we oppose policies that increase taxes and discourage investment in America’s oil and natural gas,” the American Petroleum Institute, which represents oil and gas companies, said in a statement.

But the CEO of Exxon Mobil, Darren Woods, said he was pleased that lawmakers had defined clean energy to include carbon capture and hydrogen. “We’re pleased with the broader recognition that a more comprehensive set of solutions are going to be needed to address the challenges of an energy transition,” Woods said during a conference call Friday to discuss the company’s secondquarter results.

After steep decline, US small caps tempt investors with cheap valuations

S

hares of smaller U.S. companies are outpacing a rally in the broader equity market as they draw investors looking to scoop up cheaply valued stocks and those betting the group has already priced in an economic slowdown.

The small-cap Russell 2000 (.RUT) jumped 10.4% in July against a 9.1% gain for the benchmark S&P 500 (.SPX), its biggest percentage-point outperformance on a monthly basis since February.

Small caps tend to be more domestically oriented, less profitable and carry a heavier debt load than their larger counterparts, often putting them in the firing line when worries over the economy take hold and markets become volatile.

This year was no exception: the Russell 2000 has fallen 16% in 2022 despite July’s rebound, compared with the S&P 500’s 13.3% drop, as the Federal Reserve tightened monetary policy faster than expected to fight red-hot inflation and sapped appetite for risk across markets.

The small-cap index is now at its cheapest versus the large- cap Russell 1000 (.RUI) since March 2020, according to Jefferies data, catching the eye of some bargain-hunting investors.

“There was an enormous amount of damage in the smallcap space,” said Francis Gannon, co-chief investment officer at Royce Investment Partners. “This is among the cheapest segments of the U.S. market.”

Gannon has been increasing positions in small caps, focusing on industrials, materials and technology companies in the space.

Some investors also believe that prices for small caps which are viewed as more attuned to the economy’s fluctuations - may already be reflecting a potential recession, limiting their downside if predictions of one come to pass.

Data this week showed U.S. gross domestic product contracted for a second straight quarter, fulfilling an often-cited definition of a recession. read more However, the National Bureau of Economic Research, which is the official arbiter of business cycles, has yet to declare a recession and Fed Chair Jerome Powell said this week it was unlikely the economy was in one, citing a strong employment backdrop.

Small caps appear to be “baking in a lot of economic pain already,” RBC Capital Markets analysts said in report earlier in July.

“Recessions have tended to be good buying opportunities for Small Caps,” they added.

The bank also noted that the Russell 2000’s forward priceto-earnings ratio has been trading in the 11-13 times range, “which tends to mark its bottom.”

Citi U.S. equity strategists earlier this week wrote “stocks down the market cap spectrum appear closer to pricing in recession than their Large Cap peers.”

Not everyone is convinced it is time to buy small caps.

Appetite for shares of smaller companies could quickly sour if inflation remains persistent and the Fed is forced to raise rates more aggressively than expected, inflicting more pain on the economy.

Ukraine’s president urges citizens in the Donbas to evacuate

By MARC SANTORA and IVAN NECHEPURENKO

H

undreds of thousands of civilians living in eastern Ukraine were ordered to evacuate their homes this weekend after months of relentless Russian bombardment destroyed the infrastructure needed to deliver heat and electricity.

While the Ukrainians have stabilized their defensive lines in eastern Ukraine and the Russians have failed to make significant advances in weeks, Russian shelling of towns and villages continues to kill civilians daily.

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, speaking to the nation in his overnight address, urged the hundreds of thousands of people — including tens of thousands of children — living in Donetsk province to move quickly.

“The sooner it is done, the more people leave Donetsk region now, the fewer people the Russian army will have time to kill,” he said.

It is the first time the Ukrainian government has issued such a broad directive. By doing so before winter, it was seeking to give people time to move and to prevent an unmanageable crisis later.

Protecting civilians also takes up valuable resources, taxing beleaguered emergency crews. Zelenskyy said the government would help people logistically and financially.

The Ukrainian president’s emotions sounded raw as he condemned the killing of Ukrainian prisoners of war in an explosion at a detention facility in the Russian-occupied

“Everyone is guilty — who approved, who organized, who blasted these people, who knew about it — they all will be found,” he said, calling on the U.S. State Department to declare Russia a state sponsor of terrorism.

Both the House and Senate have expressed support for such a move, but Secretary of State Antony Blinken has resisted adding Russia to a list that now comprises North Korea, Syria, Cuba and Iran.

The Kremlin has said that Ukraine killed its own soldiers being held in the Rus-

sian prison camp using precision U.S.-made missiles. The Pentagon said Friday that there was no evidence to support that claim, and a growing number of Ukraine’s allies have pointed the finger at Russia.

Satellite imagery released by Maxar Technologies on Saturday showed the strike site and the charred remains of the barracks where the soldiers died. Ukrainian officials said the images were not consistent with a missile strike. The Institute for the Study of War, a research body based in Washington, said its analysts could not confirm the cause but said that “it remains more likely that Rus-

Russia cuts off gas flow to Latvia

By MAHAM JAVAID

L

atvia became the latest in a string of European countries to be cut off from its supply of Russian natural gas Saturday, as Moscow continued to signal its ability to use its control over gas supplies for leverage in its conflict with many European nations over Ukraine.

Gazprom, the Russian energy giant, turned off the taps after accusing Latvia of violating supply conditions, without stating exactly which condition was violated.

The decision came a day after Latvijas

Gaze, a Latvian energy firm, announced that it would purchase gas from Russia in euros, rejecting Moscow’s demand that it be paid in rubles. Latvia said Gazprom’s decision would not immediately affect gas supplies.

Gazprom’s move to halt gas deliveries also came two days after the Latvian defense ministry and government agreed to provide additional military assistance to Ukraine. The details of the assistance have not been announced. Latvia, a member of NATO, has already provided Ukraine with more than $200 million in military support.

Russia’s control over much of Europe’s

gas supply has loomed over the European Union as it has imposed stiff economic sanctions on Russia and has pumped military aid into Ukraine.

Russia has already cut off gas supplies to Poland, Bulgaria, Finland, the Netherlands and Denmark, after they refused to meet President Vladimir Putin’s demand to pay for the fuel through ruble accounts set up in Russian banks.

The EU has braced for Russia to halt deliveries this winter. This past week, the bloc’s members approved a voluntary conservation plan to cut consumption by 15%

sian forces were responsible.”

The Russian Ministry of Defense said Sunday that it would allow the International Committee for the Red Cross to visit the site, but the organization has so far said it has not been granted access, adding that this was an obligation under the Geneva Conventions.

The site is a few miles from the front line in Donetsk, where fighting has intensified following a brief pause in July after the Russians gained control over nearly all of the neighboring Luhansk province.

The Russians control around 60% of Donetsk province, and Ukrainian officials have warned that Moscow will step up efforts to take the rest of the province as it moves ahead with plans to annex part of Ukraine.

The Ukrainians reported Sunday morning that they had thwarted several Russian moves toward the eastern city of Bakhmut overnight and inflicted heavy losses. Russian rockets and bombs hit 23 towns and villages in Donetsk overnight, striking 42 residential buildings, four fields with wheat and agricultural machinery, a market, a canteen, a production workshop, a transformer, garages and power lines, according to the National Police.

Russia is also trying to reinforce its defensive positions in the southern region of Kherson as Ukrainians have continued to target Russian supply lines, cutting off Russian forces west of the Dnieper River from the rest of the occupation army.

Late Saturday, the Ukrainians said they had hit a rail bridge spanning the Dnieper. by next year. European leaders agreed to make the plan mandatory if the Kremlin suddenly decides to turn off the taps.

Russia’s state-owned gas monopoly this past week reduced its flow of gas to Germany to 20% of its pipeline’s capacity. Although the move came after a maintenance shutdown, it was widely read as another attempt by Putin to show he could use the supply of fuel as a weapon.

As gas prices rise across Europe, towns and cities are finding ways to help citizens shave energy usage. Augsburg, Germany, is resorting to cold showers and shutting down fountains, Barcelona is offering home efficiency assessments, and in eastern France, villages are turning off streetlights at midnight.

As Latin America shifts left, leaders face a short honeymoon

By JULIE TURKEWITZ, MITRA TAJ and JOHN BARTLETT

I

n Chile, a tattooed former student activist won the presidency with a pledge to oversee the most profound transformation of Chilean society in decades, widening the social safety net and shifting the tax burden to the wealthy.

In Peru, the son of poor farmers was propelled to victory on a vow to prioritize struggling families, feed the hungry and correct long-standing disparities in access to health care and education.

In Colombia, a former rebel and longtime legislator was elected the country’s first leftist president, promising to champion the rights of Indigenous, Black and poor Colombians, while building an economy that works for everyone.

“A new story for Colombia, for Latin America, for the world,” he said in his victory speech, to thunderous applause.

After years of tilting rightward, Latin America is hurtling to the left, a watershed moment that began in 2018 with the election of Andrés Manuel López Obrador in Mexico and could culminate with a victory later this year by a leftist candidate in Brazil, leaving the region’s six largest economies run by leaders elected on leftist platforms.

A combination of forces has thrust this new group into power, including an anti-incumbent fervor driven by anger over chronic poverty and inequality, which have only been exacerbated by the pandemic and have deepened frustration among voters who have taken out their indignation on establishment candidates.

But just as new leaders settle into office, their campaign pledges have collided with a bleak reality, including a European war that has sent the cost of everyday goods, from fuel to food, soaring, making life more painful for already suffering constituents and evaporating much of the good will presidents once enjoyed.

Chile’s Gabriel Boric, Peru’s Pedro Castillo and Colombia’s Gustavo Petro are among the leaders who rode to victory promising to help the poor and disenfranchised, but who find themselves facing enormous challenges in trying to meet the high expectations of voters.

Unlike today, the last significant leftist shift in Latin America, in the first decade of the millennium, was propelled by a commodities boom that allowed leaders to expand social programs and move an extraordinary number of people into the middle class, raising expectations for millions of families.

Now that middle class is sliding backward,

and instead of a boom, governments face pandemic-battered budgets, galloping inflation fed by the war in Ukraine, rising migration and increasingly dire economic and social consequences of climate change.

In Argentina, where the leftist Alberto Fernández took the reins from a right-wing president in late 2019, protesters have taken to the streets amid rising prices. Even larger protests erupted recently in Ecuador, threatening the government of one of the region’s few newly elected right-wing presidents, Guillermo Lasso.

“I don’t want to be apocalyptic about it,” said Cynthia Arnson, a distinguished fellow at the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars. “But there are times when you look at this that it feels like the perfect storm, the number of things hitting the region at once.”

The rise of social media, with the potential to supercharge discontent and drive major protest movements, including in Chile and Colombia, have shown people the power of the streets.

Beginning in August, when Petro takes over from his conservative predecessor, five of the six largest economies in the region will be run by leaders who campaigned from the left.

The sixth, Brazil, the largest country in Latin America, could swing that way in a national election in October. Polls show that former President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, a fiery leftist, has a wide lead on the right-wing incumbent, President Jair Bolsonaro.

New leaders in Colombia and Chile are far more socially progressive than leftists in the past, calling for a shift away from fossil fuels and advocating for abortion rights at a time when the U.S. Supreme Court is moving America in the opposite direction.

But taken together, this group is extremely mixed, differing on everything from economic policy to their commitment to democratic principles.

Petro and Boric have vowed to vastly expand social programs for the poor, for example, while López Obrador, who is focused on austerity, is reducing spending.

What does link these leaders, however, are promises for sweeping change that in many instances are running headlong into difficult and growing challenges.

In Chile late last year, Boric beat José Antonio Kast, a right-wing establishment politician associated with Chile’s former dictator, Augusto Pinochet, by pledging to jettison the neoliberal economic policies of the past.

But just months into his term, with an inexperienced Cabinet, divided Congress, rising consumer prices and unrest in the country’s

south, Boric’s approval ratings have plummeted.

Ninety percent of poll respondents told the polling firm Cadem this month that they believed the country’s economy was stuck or going backward.

Like many neighbors in the region, Chile’s yearly inflation rate is the highest it’s been in more than a generation, at 11.5%, spurring a cost-of-living crisis.

In southern Chile, a land struggle between the Mapuche, the country’s largest Indigenous group, and the state has entered its deadliest phase in 20 years, leading Boric to reverse course on one of his campaign pledges and redeploy troops in the area.

In September, Chileans will vote on a remarkably progressive constitution that enshrines gender equality, environmental protections and Indigenous rights and is meant to replace a Pinochet-era document.

The president has bound his success to the referendum, putting himself in a precarious position should the draft be rejected, which polls show is for now the more likely outcome.

In neighboring Peru, Castillo rose last year from virtual anonymity to beat Keiko Fujimori, a right-wing politician whose father, former President Alberto Fujimori, governed with an iron fist and introduced neoliberal policies similar to those rejected by Chile’s voters.

While some Peruvians supported Castillo solely as a rejection of Fujimori, he also represented real hopes for many, especially poor and rural voters.

As a candidate, Castillo promised to em-

power farmers with more subsidies, access to credit and technical assistance.

But today, he is barely managing to survive politically. He has governed erratically, pulled between his far-left party and the far-right opposition, reflecting the fractious politics that helped him win the presidency.

Castillo — whose approval rating has sunk to 19%, according to the Institute of Peruvian Studies — is now subject to five criminal probes, has already faced two impeachment attempts and cycled through seven interior ministers.

The agrarian reform he pledged has yet to translate into any concrete policies. Instead, price spikes for food, fuel and fertilizer are hitting his base the hardest.

In Colombia, Petro will take office facing many of the same headwinds.

Poverty has risen — 40% of households now live on less than $100 a month, less than half of the monthly minimum wage — while inflation has hit nearly 10%.

Still, despite widespread financial anxiety, Petro’s actions as he prepares to assume office seem to have earned him some support.

But given how quickly the honeymoon period ended for others, Petro will have precious little time to deliver relief.

“Petro must come through for his voters,” said Hernan Morantes, 30, a Petro supporter and environmental activist. “Social movements must be ready, so that when the government does not come through, or does not want to come through, we’re ready.”

A neighborhood in Medellín, Colombia, on May 15, 2020. A new president, who promised an economy that works for everyone, will soon take office in Colombia.

Gangs advance on the seat of Haitian government power: ‘Haitians are hostages’

Motorcycle drivers passing through a burning roadblock as anger mounted over fuel shortages that have intensified as a result of gang violence this month in Port-au-Prince.

By MARIA ABI-HABIB and ANDRE PAULTRE

G

angs are increasing their chokehold on Haiti’s capital, using bulldozers to raze entire neighborhoods, overwhelming poorly armed police and taking their violence to within blocks of the seat of government.

Although Haitians have endured relentless bloodshed and tragedy for years, the escalation of lawlessness in recent weeks and the government’s inability to exert control has terrified the nation.

In just a nine-day period in July, more than 470 people were killed, injured or missing as a result of gang warfare in Cité Soleil, the country’s largest slum, according to the United Nations.

Government agencies and ministries have urged employees to stay home as gangs expand their territory and are now close to the presidential palace, interior ministry, the central bank and the national penitentiary, where hungry prisoners are threatening to riot, officials warn.

In Cité Soleil, home to about 300,000 people, gangs fighting for control are using bulldozers to topple homes, gang-rape women and girls, and kill at random, according to interviews with residents.

One woman, Wislande Pierre, said

she lost nearly everything during a single day, one of more than 3,000 people who fled Cité Soleil in July, according to the U.N. The gang clashes started in Pierre’s neighborhood before spreading to downtown Port-au-Prince, the capital.

Pierre was home at about 5 a.m. when she said she was awakened by someone shouting, “Leave this place! You are all going to die! They are coming!”

The distant sound of metal crunching under metal, gunshots and the roar of flames quickly followed. Pierre threw what she could into a backpack and fled as three bulldozers ripped through and obliterated her neighborhood and gang members set fire to what remained, details backed up in interviews with others who escaped and video footage.

But Pierre’s sister Jona was not as lucky.

Jona had left her 1-month-old infant daughter on her bed early that morning as she emptied the family’s chamber pots on a nearby beach. Her husband was at work.

Like many in Cité Soleil, Jona lives in a house made of metal sheets with no running water, the family relieving themselves in buckets.

For two days, Jona took shelter on the beach, in anguish over the fate of her child but unable to return home while the gang

warfare raged on.

Eventually, the fighting subsided and Jona rushed back, her hopes sinking as she passed flattened houses. Hers, miraculously, was left standing.

But there her daughter lay on the bed where Jona had left her, the baby’s small body riddled with seven bullets, the metalsheet walls of her home offering no resistance to the gangs’ ammunition.

By that time, the fighting had migrated to a nearby cemetery. Unable to give her daughter a dignified burial, Jona placed the body in an empty box of crackers, went down to the shores of Cité Soleil and buried her in the sand.

“We are still alive, but I cannot say we are alive,” said Pierre, Jona’s sister. “If this is life, what is hell?”

One gang, the G-9 Family and Allies run by a former police officer named Jimmy Chérizier, who is known as Barbecue, has gained control of more territory in Cité Soleil, wresting it away from a rival gang, the G-pep.

In many ways, Chérizier embodies the reasons Haiti is where it is today: The country’s political and business elites have supported competing gangs to achieve their own objectives, whittling away at any semblance of a functioning nation.

Chérizier is believed to be supported by political figures seeking to suppress protests or to force the people to vote a certain way. Haiti’s big business families pay off his gang to advance their economic interests, including safe passage of their goods, which dock at Port-au-Prince’s ports.

The ports are on the edge of Cité Soleil, and because Haiti imports most of its food, fuel and other necessities, G-9 can effectively hold the entire country hostage by preventing goods that arrive at the port from being distributed by trucks.

The use of gangs by Haiti’s political power brokers is not new. It was a tool made popular by President Jean-Bertrand Aristide during his second term, which started in 2001. Then, gangs were used mostly to suppress a rebellion against Aristide’s rule that unfolded across Haiti.

After Aristide fled Haiti in 2004 amid spiraling chaos, a U.N. peacekeeping mission was established that would patrol Cité Soleil, keeping gangs in check.

But over the years, the peacekeeping

mission’s resources dwindled and it became embroiled in scandals, including a deadly cholera outbreak and widespread sexual misconduct that tainted peacekeepers before their mandate expired in 2019.

Since then, gangs have been on the rise as their political and business patrons strengthen their support to jockey for power, according to several Western diplomats and Haitian officials. Gangs smuggle in large quantities of weapons and ammunition through the country’s seaports, shipments facilitated by government officials.

Two senior State Department officials said Washington was putting pressure on Haiti’s customs and ports officials to check incoming shipments, which probably contributed to several seizures of large caliber weapons and ammunition in recent weeks.

But those shipments often leave from Florida, suggesting that U.S. customs officials also need to conduct more thorough inspections.

“During Aristide’s time, the gangs were not everywhere, they weren’t well equipped, they couldn’t confront the police, they didn’t go about kidnapping anyone they saw, ” said Pierre Espérance, executive director of the National Human Rights Defense Network, a Haitian organization that has testified before the U.S. Congress about the deteriorating situation. “They existed to keep Aristide in power.’’

“Today, there is a total gangsterization of the country,’’ Espérance added. “Haiti’s big families are supporting the gangs to get what they want. They don’t want a stable situation, accountability or the ability of citizens to organize against them. Haitians are hostages.”

The national penitentiary — overcrowded and struggling to feed its prisoners — houses several of Haiti’s most dangerous criminals, including gang leaders and some of the suspects involved in the murder of Haitian President Jovenel Moïse last year.

“Young people, women and men have been armed by political and private sector entities as the government turns a blind eye or are complicit at some of the highest official levels,” said Fritz Alphonse Jean, an opposition leader and former governor of the central bank. “The police are clearly overwhelmed and disoriented, lacking leadership from the government.”

“It will only get worse,” he warned.

Debris from uncontrolled Chinese rocket falls over Southeast Asian seas

By KENNETH CHANG

D

ebris from a large Chinese rocket reentered Earth’s atmosphere over the Indian Ocean at 12:45 p.m. Eastern time Saturday, according to the U.S. Space Command.

In an update posted on social networking site Weibo, the Chinese Manned Space Agency said most of the debris had burned up on reentry over the Sulu Sea, a body of water between the island of Borneo and the Philippines.

The possibility, however slight, that debris from the rocket could strike a populated area had led people around the world to track its trajectory for days.

NASA Administrator Bill Nelson issued a rebuke Saturday, saying that China “did not share specific trajectory information as their Long March 5B rocket fell back to Earth.” He added that all countries should “share this type of information in advance to allow reliable predictions of potential debris impact risk, especially for heavy-lift vehicles, like the Long March 5B, which carry a significant risk of loss of life and property.”

The rocket Nelson referred to in his statement launched last Sunday, carrying to orbit a laboratory module that was added to China’s space station, Tiangong. Usually, the large booster stages of rockets immediately drop back to Earth after they are jettisoned.

But the 23-ton core stage of the Long March 5B accompanied the space station segment all the way to orbit.

Because of friction caused by the rocket rubbing against air at the top of the atmosphere, it soon began losing altitude, making what is called “uncontrolled reentry” back to Earth. In recent days, space watchers had projected potential reentries over much of the planet. Within the past day, the prediction became more precise, but even then forecasters were unsure whether it would come down over the Indian Ocean, off Mexico or in the Atlantic Ocean.

People in Sarawak, a province of Malaysia on the island of Borneo, reported sightings of the rocket debris on social media, with many believing the pyrotechnics at first to be a meteor shower or a comet.

This was the third flight of Long March 5B, China’s largest rocket. The country’s space program needed such a large, powerful vehicle to carry parts to orbit for the assembly of its space station.

On its first test flight in 2020, it lofted a reusable astronaut capsule with no crew aboard to orbit. That booster fell on villages in Ivory Coast in western Africa, causing some property damage but no injuries.

The second flight carried Tianhe, the main module of Tiangong, the new space station, last year and splashed down in the Indian Ocean. This launch added Wentian, the laboratory module.

The Long March 5B contained multiple pieces.

Four side boosters dropped off shortly after the launch, crashing harmlessly in the Pacific Ocean. (Disposing of used, unwanted rocket pieces in the ocean is a common practice.) But the core booster stage — a 10-story cylinder weighing 23 tons empty — carried the Wentian module into orbit.

The installation of the lab advances the progress of a second outpost in orbit where humanity is able to conduct scientific research in a microgravity environment.

China plans to operate the new Tiangong station for at least a decade, inviting other nations to take part.

Tiangong is smaller than the aging International Space Station, which is to be retired in 2030 under NASA’s current plans, although Russia has given conflicting signs of how long it was continue to participate.

In recent decades, rocket stages that reach orbit typically fire the engine again after releasing their payloads so that they drop out of orbit, aimed at an unoccupied area like the middle of an ocean.

Typically 20% to 40% of a rocket or satellite survives reentry, which would suggest that 10,000 to 20,000 pounds of the Chinese booster would reach Earth’s surface.

One more laboratory module is to be launched using the same rocket in October, completing construction of the space station. A final mission for the rocket is planned for 2023, transporting an orbital space telescope.

Experts say that the designers of the rocket had alternatives to this approach. They could have had the booster stop firing before reaching orbit. It would then immediately fall back to Earth in the Pacific. But then they would have had to augment the propulsion systems on the space station module to take it the rest of the way to orbit.

Jonathan McDowell, an astrophysicist at the Center for Astrophysics in Cambridge, Massachusetts, who tracks space debris, suggested that the Chinese might have been able to employ a trick similar to what NASA engineers did more than 40 years ago with the Saturn 1B rocket. The second stage of the Saturn 1B was large and, like the Long March 5B booster, did not have thrusters to control the reentry.

“They actually did something clever in terms of venting the fuel,” McDowell said. “They didn’t actually have a rocket engine ignition, but they vented the fuel in such a way as to lower the perigee into the atmosphere.”

Onlookers watched the launch July 24 of the rocket transporting China’s Wentian module toward the Tiangong space station.

Russia is making heaps of money from oil, but there is a way to stop that

By THE EDITORIAL BOARD

T

he United States and its allies are leaning heavily on economic sanctions to punish Russia for its invasion of Ukraine. But a key element in that strategy, restrictions on Russian oil exports, mostly appears to be causing pain for ordinary people in other countries. European nations, in particular, are causing considerable damage to their own economies without reducing Russia’s oil revenue.

Nations seeking to help Ukraine are aiming at the wrong target. They have focused on reducing Russia’s energy exports instead of reducing Russia’s earnings from energy exports. Russia is exporting less oil but, in a perverse twist, it is earning more money, according to the Center for Research on Energy and Clean Air, based in Finland.

The sanctions have raised prices, more than offsetting the decline in exports. In May 2022, Russia earned 883 million euros (about $903 million) per day from oil exports, up from 633 million euros (about $647 million) per day in May 2021.

The situation is about to take a turn for the worse.

New sanctions that the European Union and Britain have agreed to impose on Russia by year’s end are likely to drive oil prices even higher. Some analysts warn that the price for a barrel of oil could exceed $200, well above the spike

in the early weeks of the war, when oil prices topped out around $124. That could easily push Western economies into a recession.

The Biden administration has a plan that could avert this crisis. It would establish a buyers’ cartel — an agreement among Russia’s customers to put a price ceiling on Russian oil. That ceiling would be significantly lower than the current market price, sharply reducing the role of Western consumers in funding the Russian military. But the price would still allow Russia to make some profit, so that it has an incentive to export its oil to members of the cartel.

Some of the key participants in the plan, including the United States, have banned the importation of Russian oil, but other nations that America hopes to enlist, notably India, continue to import large volumes of Russian oil.

It is an audacious and untested idea. It also appears to be the best available option. If it works, it could deprive Russia of revenue without devastating the economies of nations that are trying to support Ukraine.

Constructing a cartel is not easy. The United States has already secured the agreement in principle of the other members of the Group of 7, a coordinating body for the major democratic economic powers. U.S. officials, including Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen, are working with their

counterparts to hammer out the details. The buyers’ cartel would be strengthened if other big buyers of Russian oil, notably India and China, could be persuaded to participate. That seems unlikely. But U.S. officials argue the cartel could still increase pressure on Russia by allowing nations that are not participating to extract larger discounts, too.

Maintaining a cartel is also hard. Because the participants can benefit by cheating on the price ceiling, policing a price-fixing agreement is notoriously difficult. But in this case, there may be a plausible enforcement mechanism.

A key piece of the new sanctions by the EU and Britain is a ban on insuring tankers that carry Russian oil. Shippers need insurance to navigate canals and to enter harbors. European companies dominate the market; in April and May, 68% of Russian oil exports traveled on tankers insured by European businesses. That measure could be modified to ban insurance for tankers with oil purchased at a price above the cartel’s ceiling.

The Russian government has sought to forestall the plan by warning that it would refuse to go along with it. “As far as I understand, we won’t be supplying oil to those countries which would impose such a cap, and our oil, oil products will be redirected to the countries which are ready to cooperate with us,” Elvira Nabiullina, the governor of Russia’s central bank, said at a news conference last week.

Analysts, however, say that if a cartel is established, Russia’s real choice would be between accepting its terms and leaving a large share of current oil production in the ground.

Perhaps the most compelling objection is that the price ceiling plan removes the stigma on Russian oil. Ukrainian leaders argue that the best way to aid their cause is to abstain from spending any money on Russian energy; a cartel would normalize those purchases.

The world would surely be in a better position today if it had not developed a dependence on Russian energy.

That is a tale with its own lessons, including the urgency of transitioning to sustainable energy that can be generated closer to home and the need to align trade policy more closely with other national priorities. The only lasting way to reduce Russia’s economic power as an energy exporter is to reduce demand for its energy.

But those shifts will take time. A buyers’ cartel is a temporary expedient. After decades of complacent dependence on Russia, European nations are scrambling to adopt new plans to reduce energy use and expand sustainable wind and solar power. The war in Ukraine ought to catalyze similar investments by the United States, which is a net energy exporter but remains dependent on fossil fuel imports.

In the meantime, Ukraine needs the sustained support of its allies in what may be a prolonged struggle. It is counterproductive to impose unnecessary pain.

Five international movies to stream now

Benjamin Radjaipour in “No Hard Feelings.”

By DEVIKA GIRISH

T

his month’s picks include a buoyant queer romance from Germany, a Malayalam-language mafia thriller and a South African horror flick.

‘No Hard Feelings’ If you’re looking to watch something off the beaten streaming path this week, take a scroll through “New Directions: 20 Years of Young German Cinema,” a free online series hosted by The Goethe-Institut.

Among the gems in the lineup is “No Hard Feelings,” a sweet and sour queer romance from Iranian-German filmmaker Faraz Shariat. Parvis (Benjamin Radjaipour), a young gay man and the son of Iranian exiles in Germany, lives a proud and carefree life. We first meet him when he’s voguing at a nightclub, his bleached blond hair and white mesh top sparkling in the strobe lights. Later, when a man he meets via a dating app makes a racist comment, an unruffled Parvis puts him in his place — “I’m not into man-child krauts” — and walks out.

But Parvis’ self-assured sense of belonging is unsettled when he’s assigned community service at a refugee detention center, and he befriends a pair of newly arrived asylumseekers from Iran, Amon (Eidin Jalali) and his sister Bana (Banafshe Hourmazdi). As Parvis and Amon begin to fall in love, and Bana is faced with deportation, Parvis reckons with all the ways in which he’s similar yet different from his new companions, thanks to nothing but an accident of birth.

Heartbreaking and heartwarming in equal measure, “No Hard Feelings” delivers profound insights with a buoyant pop sensibility. Shariat’s characters may suffer precarity and prejudice, but the director doesn’t deny them queer joy, capturing them in bright pastel colors, sun-kissed scenes of

sensuality and music-video-style montages.

(Stream it on the Goethe-Institut website.)

‘Malik’ This Malayalam-language mafia epic opens with a bravura long take: The camera winds through the rooms and hallways of a crowded house, dropping us in and out of stray, intrigue-laden conversations, before entering the office of Sulaiman (Fahadh Faasil), a grizzled gangster who’s decided to right his ways and embark on a pilgrimage to Mecca. The shot sets the scene for Mahesh Narayanan’s dense, breathless thriller, which plunges us with little exposition into its gritty milieu. The repentant Sulaiman is arrested when he tries to board his plane, and the police enlist his 17-year-old nephew, Freddy (Sanal Aman), to covertly kill him in prison.

As the young man contemplates this fearsome task, he is visited by various relatives who recount the bloody story of Sulaiman’s rise from the poor son of a teacher to the righteous protector of a coastal village of impoverished Muslims and Christians.

A mob movie crossed with a Greek tragedy, “Malik” sets a moral test for viewers. As each new puzzle piece of Sulaiman’s sprawling back story is revealed, the film forces us to consider if his noble ends — uplifting his downtrodden community — justify his vengeful means. But “Malik” also invites us to widen our lens beyond individual actions to indict a whole system. Set against broader historical events in India — including the 2002 religious riots and the 2004 tsunami — the film unfurls as an audacious critique of opportunistic politicians who stoke internecine enmities for selfish ends.

(Stream it on Amazon.)

‘Good Madam’ An unsettling gothic tale about a Black maid and her white employer, Jenna Cato Bass’ “Good Madam” exposes the ways in which South Africa’s apartheid past continues to haunt its present. The aging Mavis (Nosipho Mtebe) has spent the bulk of her life as a live-in housekeeper for a lady named Diane, while Mavis’ daughter, Tsidi (​​Chumisa Cosa), was raised by her grandmother in poverty. As the film opens, Tsidi has been driven out of her family home after the death of her grandmother, and she arrives at Diane’s abode with her young daughter in tow.

An air of uncanny pervades the house right from the outset. There’s a dead dog that seems to have come back to life, and the colonial artifacts on the walls exude malevolence. Then there’s Mavis’ excessively obsequious behavior toward the bedridden Diane, an unseen presence who is hidden away behind closed doors. Is Mavis’ servitude, which Tsidi finds ridiculous and outdated, the result of some evil spell or just of decades of racist indoctrination?

Re-imagining racism itself as a kind of dark magic, “Good Madam” milks plenty of chills out of this central mystery, turning the sounds of Mavis’ scrubbing and cleaning into terrifying refrains.

(Stream it on Shudder.)

‘The City of Wild Beasts’ A coming-of-age drama about a tough kid from a rough neighborhood, “The City of Wild Beasts” is devoid of both the sensationalism and the sentimentalism that usually afflict the “slumdog” genre. Instead, a rare tenderness courses through Henry E. Rincón’s feature, which centers on Tato (Bryan Córdoba), a delinquent 17-year-old in Medellín, Colombia.

When Tato’s mother dies, he’s left to fend for himself in the city’s hard-knock streets. Struggling to scrounge up money while avoiding the wrath of local gangs, our hero leaves town to seek refuge with a grandfather he’s never met. Curmudgeonly at first, the old man, Octavio (Óscar Atehortúa), a flower farmer in the countryside, eventually takes Tato under his wing, and the two form a close, taciturn bond. They work the land together and gaze out at the horizon, and at the end of the day, Octavio gives Tato a wad of cash and a precious life lesson: “Work is sacred.”

This moving portrait of intergenerational male affection grounds the film even as Tato returns to Medellín, and the plot takes some tragic turns. Rincón never loses sight of his protagonist’s hunger for love and beauty, which persists despite — or perhaps because of — a milieu in which both are hard-won.

An acclaimed (and unnamed) director gathers five actresses from Seoul in a house in Greece to workshop a production of Aeschylus’ “Agamemnon.” The women are friendly, but the director’s bullying methods — which involve unhinged yelling and probing questions about the actresses’ private traumas — incite conflicts, particularly between Hye Bin (Kim Haru) and a sycophantic new arrival, Kim Ian (Kim Taehee). Both women are vying for the role of Clytaemnestra, the queen who murders her husband, Agamemnon, and his new conquest, Cassandra.

The lines between performance and reality begin to blur, as one might expect, but “Clytaemnestra” achieves something much sharper than simple allegory. Pak choreographs stark and spare rehearsal sequences against a backdrop rich with dramatic history (one scene takes place at the Theater of Dionysus), ironically undercutting the director’s assumptions of grandeur. While the character berates his actors for failing to appreciate his source text, Pak shows that the impulses that underlie even classical tragedies are much cruder and more banal than we might assume.

Will Smith says he is ‘deeply remorseful’ over Chris Rock slap

By JULIA JACOBS

F

our months after slapping comedian Chris Rock at the Oscars, shocking audiences and prompting a decadelong ban from attending the ceremony, Will Smith posted a video Friday expressing regret over the incident and promising that he was doing “personal work” to address his behavior.

“It hurts me psychologically and emotionally to know I didn’t live up to people’s image and impression of me,” Smith said in the video. “I am deeply remorseful, and I’m trying to be remorseful without being ashamed of myself, right? I’m human, and I made a mistake.”

Smith, who resigned from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences days after the ceremony, apologized to numerous people during the nearly six-minute video — starting with Rock, who had made a joke about Jada Pinkett Smith’s shaved head shortly before Smith walked up and slapped him on live television. (Pinkett Smith has been open about her struggles with alopecia, a condition that leads to hair loss, and in a statement shortly after the incident, Smith said a joke about his wife’s medical condition was “too much for me to bear.”)

“Chris, I apologize to you,” Smith said in the video. “My behavior was unacceptable, and I’m here whenever you’re ready to talk.”

Shortly after the attack, Smith won the Oscar for best actor. In the video, he explained that he had failed to apologize to Rock during his speech because he was “fogged out” following the incident.

Smith said he had tried to contact Rock later on but had received a message in response that the comedian was not ready to talk and would reach out when he was. Smith apologized to Rock’s family, including his mother, Rosalie Rock, who gave a television interview saying, “When you hurt my child, you hurt me.”

He also apologized to his own family “for the heat that I brought on all of us,” as well as the other nominees that night for having tarnished their moment.

Pinkett Smith has said little about her own experience of that night, but last month, she centered an episode of her online talk show, Red Table Talk, on alopecia, interviewing a woman whose 12-year-old daughter died by suicide as a result of bullying over the condition.

Regarding the slap, Pinkett Smith said, “My deepest hope is that these two intelligent, capable

In an apologetic video, Smith addressed questions over his behavior at the Oscars, which resulted in a 10-year ban from the ceremony. men have an opportunity to heal, talk this out and reconcile.”

Rock has not publicly discussed his response to the attack in depth, but earlier last week, at a comedy show in Brooklyn, New York, he mentioned it in a joke. During a portion of his set that was focused on victimhood, he told the crowd that after Smith slapped him, he shook it off and “went to work the next day,” prompting sustained applause from the audience. A representative for Rock did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

In Friday’s video, Smith seemed to be working to repair his reputation and reassure fans that his behavior at the ceremony did not reflect who he truly is, saying, “There is no part of me that thinks that was the right way to behave in that moment.”

“I know it was shocking, but I promise you, I am deeply devoted and committed to putting light and love and joy into the world,” he concluded.

“If you hang on, I promise we’ll be able to be friends again.”

The irresistible thrill of kung pao tie Pearl was cooking. And it smelled so good, the tingle of chiles, the urgency of garlic, the warmth of ginger as soft and bright as the Southern California sun setting behind our homes.

With the perspective of adulthood, I couldn’t understand how she pulled together those meals after long days of working and watching us, but, when I saw Grace’s notes, I understood. Auntie Pearl pared down recipes, including this one for kung pao chicken, to its essentials for those busy nights — and it’s exactly right when dinner needs to get on the table as quickly as possible.

This kung pao shrimp may have more ingredients, but it doesn’t take much longer. The sea saltiness and snap of the shrimp sharpen against a confetti of sweet bell pepper. Peanuts, fried to bring out a toasty earthiness, deliver crunch among the slips of garlic and scallions. Dried chiles lace the dish with heat and are great on their own, but throwing in floral, citrusy Sichuan pepper adds the welcome tingly sensation known as ma la.

Once you try the dish with it, you can decide whether you want more or less, as you should with all of the ingredients, to make — and enjoy — the kung pao you’re craving.

A

steaming plate of kung pao anything feels like the part of a fireworks show when small, bright bursts pop without deafening booms. Surprising but not jolting, it’s a dish filled with beats of excitement: You don’t know when they’re coming, but they’re always welcome.

With kung pao, that likable little thrill comes from the sauce’s flashes of chile heat in a glossy swirl of salty, sour and sweet that coats stir-fried chicken, shrimp, tofu, vegetables and, often, peppers and nuts. Every bite swings a little spicy or chewy, tangy or crisp. And there are endless variations, so the total number of possible kung pao experiences is something like infinity.

The dish’s defining elements are chiles and a sweetened soy-vinegar sauce, but most everything else is up for grabs, as it has been from the start. That makes it a meal you can cook night after night at home, where you can calibrate the seasonings to your liking and end up with something that tastes both new and familiar. (It also doesn’t hurt that it takes less than 20 minutes from start to finish.)

The origins of kung pao — transliterated today as “gong bao” — are murky, but the original source of

the name is undisputed. It stems from a late-19th-century governor-general of Sichuan and gong bao (“palace guardian”), who is said to have loved this dish. In exploring the dish’s history, Fuchsia Dunlop, a British food writer who has expertly covered Chinese cuisine in English, notes that it may have been created in Sichuan, Guizhou or Shandong, with each province laying claim to it. But she notes, too, that there are countless versions from region to region, and even from cook to cook.

Knowing that there is no single way to make the dish, while simultaneously learning more about it, freed me from the fear of not preparing it “authentically.” I’m Chinese American and was raised on the food and in the culture, but Dunlop studied professional cooking in regions of China I’ve never even visited. Learning from the well-researched recipes in her cookbooks helped me return to how I long cooked Chinese dishes — by scent, sound, taste and practical needs — and gave me the confidence to create my own versions of beloved meals.

The first time I prepared kung pao chicken, I followed a recipe handwritten by my Taiwanese American friend Grace Han, who transcribed instructions from her mother, Pearl Han. Grace and I grew up together as neighbors, and our parents still live next to each other, on lots close enough that I could always smell what Aun-

Kung pao shrimp The name of this dish is now written in English as gong bao shrimp, and this recipe takes inspiration from the American Chinese versions that come from the Sichuan province of China. Here, flashes of chile heat shine in a glossy swirl of a salty, sour and sweet sauce. With a confetti blend of shrimp, peppers and peanuts, each mouthful is a little spicy and chewy, savory and crisp.

The deep malty tang comes from Chinkiang vinegar, a jet-black condiment from China that is traditionally fermented from grains and aged in clay. It’s key to this dish and also delicious for dipping dumplings, saucing noodles and dressing vegetables. (Balsamic vinegar, similarly fermented and aged from grape juice in barrels, is a fun, fruity substitute.) With both vegetables and protein, this one-wok stir-fry is a complete meal with steamed rice.

Yield: 4 servings Total time: 15 minutes Ingredients: 1 pound peeled and deveined medium shrimp, thawed if frozen 2 tablespoons Shaoxing wine or dry sherry 2 teaspoons cornstarch Salt

a talented Taiwanese American cook who naturally streamlined dishes while raising three kids and managing a busy career. Her younger daughter, Grace Han, shared this recipe: “quick, easy and my mom’s favorite.” Dried chiles sizzle in oil first to impart heat to the whole dish, then chicken browns in a single layer — no high-heat stir-frying necessary — to create a tasty caramelized crust before the pieces are flipped together. Coated in a deadsimple kung pao sauce that delivers the dish’s signature salty tang, the chicken begs to be spooned over steamed rice. Serve with stirfried vegetables as well for a complete meal.

Yield: 4 servings Total time: 15 minutes Ingredients: 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1/2-inch chunks 3 tablespoons soy sauce 2 teaspoons cornstarch Salt and ground black or Sichuan pepper 1 1/2 tablespoons Chinkiang (black) vinegar or balsamic vinegar 2 teaspoons sugar 1/4 cup neutral oil, such as grapeseed

1/2 cup small dried red chiles (15 grams; see tip) Preparation: 1. Mix the chicken, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, 1 teaspoon cornstarch, and a big pinch of salt and pepper in a bowl until evenly coated. Let sit while you prepare the sauce.

2. Stir the vinegar, sugar, remaining 2 tablespoons soy sauce and 1 teaspoon cornstarch in a small bowl.

3. Combine the oil and chiles in a wok or large nonstick skillet, and set over medium heat. When the chiles start to sizzle and brown, about 15 seconds, push them to one side of the pan. Add the chicken to the other side all at once and spread in a single, even layer. Cook, without moving the pieces, until the bottoms are dark golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes.

If the chiles start to blacken, put them on top of the chicken so that they don’t burn.

4. Using a large spatula, flip the chicken in portions. Cook just until the meat almost loses all of its pinkness, 1 to 2 minutes more. Stir the sauce and pour it into the pan. Stir until the sauce thickens and slicks the chicken evenly. Immediately transfer to a plate and serve hot.

The resilient spirit of Basque country extends to its restaurants

By CAITLIN RAUX GUNTHER

I

n Basque Country, the pandemic has served as a reminder of the extent to which food forms the fabric of local life. Eating well is a priority throughout Spain’s northern autonomous community, and seems, to some local chefs, even more so now.

The region is an endless feast. Culinary destinations beckon beyond the many Michelin-starred restaurants. You’ll find pintxo bars littered with waxy paper napkins, and people grazing on two-bite savory snacks, like croquetas or Spanish tortilla, atop a slice of bread and skewered with a toothpick; and sidrerías (cider bars) tucked in the lush green mountains, with patrons slicing into a firegrilled steak the size of a forearm while sipping fizzy natural cider.

“Our culture is based on food,” said Álvaro Garrido, chef and owner of the Michelinstarred Mina, a restaurant in Bilbao’s La Vieja neighborhood. “Geographically, we’re very lucky,” he said, with access to fresh seafood from the Cantabrian Sea, high-quality produce from small, family-run farms, and meat and dairy from livestock raised on verdant pastures.

The result is a strong culinary heritage that even the edgiest chefs hold sacred — and, of course, draws food worshippers from around the world.

Garrido and his partner, Lara Martín, who runs Mina’s front-of-house, earned their first Michelin star in 2013 and have since garnered a following. On rare days off, when Garrido is not in the kitchen with the Mina “warriors,” as he calls his staff, the native Bilbaino visits suppliers or enjoys a meal at a nearby restaurant prepared by one of his peers.

I first interviewed Garrido in December of 2019, to tap into his extensive restaurant knowledge and discover some of his favorite locales in Basque Country. (I worked as a kitchen intern at Mina for about six weeks in 2014.)

Shortly after, the pandemic brought the hospitality industry to a sputtering standstill. Restaurants across Spain were forced to shutter by government mandate, some never reopened.

But some of the places on Garrido’s list managed to quickly pivot their businesses.

Zarate, a Michelin-starred restaurant in Bilbao known for its pristine seafood, converted a street-facing slice of its dining room into a seafood counter with takeaway dishes. Others waited until outdoor dining was approved and doubled down on their terrace service. Because of the largely extroverted, deeply foodcentered culture, local customers were eager

Ultimately, all of the restaurants on Garrido’s list pulled through the pandemic. The national tourism industry association, Exceltur, predicted in a January report that Spain’s tourism gross domestic product could reach about 88% of its pre-pandemic levels in 2022 (135 billion euros, or about $138 billion) — that’s about 47 billion euros above 2021, though that is still 19 billion euros lower than about 155 billion of 2019. With the return of tourism, the region has boomeranged back to life and the vibe among many restaurant owners is cautiously optimistic.

Here, Garrido shares five restaurants that should be on your radar the next time you visit Basque Country.

Arrea!

“Arrea! is in Kanpezu, a small town in the middle of the mountains,” Garrido said. The chef, Edorta Lamo, made a name for himself at A Fuego Negro, the San Sebastián restaurant where he reinvented the classic pintxo. (Sadly, A Fuegro Nuegro closed during the pandemic after 14 years.) For Arrea!, Lamo returned to his familial roots in Kanpezu (or Campezo in Spanish) to pioneer a gastronomic style that can only be described as “mountain cuisine.”

“They cook using products from the mountain — wild herbs and produce that the chef and his team collect themselves,” Garrido

said. The Arrea! team also works with local honey, truffles, rare native plants and various types of game.

The restaurant’s various spaces each offer their own dining style. You can sidle up at the bar with a wild boar burger or in the dining room, order venison “camouflaged” by root vegetables. Though guests have to reserve at least 24 hours in advance to experience the nightly tasting menu (95 euros, or $97), lunchtime may be the best bet for experiencing Lamo’s vision at a relative bargain — the menu del dia will set you back just 20 euros, and a more extensive midday menu is available for 40 euros.

Subida al frontón, 46, 01110 Santikurutze Kanpezu, Álava, Spain Jauregibarria In the small town of Amorebieta-Etxano, about 20 minutes outside of Bilbao, you’ll find one of Basque Country’s best-kept secrets: Jauregibarria, the restaurant where chef Beñat Ormaetxea is quietly advancing avant-garde Basque cuisine. “Beñat makes traditional plates with modern touches, working with local products like mushrooms, bacalao and ‘teardrop’ spring peas,” Garrido said. The latter are available just a few weeks each year.

In a restored farmhouse with views of the surrounding botanical park of the same name, Jauregibarria, you’ll find a menu where classic Basque ingredients are juxtaposed with innovative techniques and creative flavors — like roasted baby squid, or begihaundi, which translates as “big eyes” in Euskera, the local language, with a crispy form of ink; or acorn-fed Iberian pork cheeks stewed in Rioja red wine.

Tasting menus start at 45 euros for five courses.

Barrio Bideaur, 4, 48340 AmorebietaEtxano, Spain Txakoli Simón You probably know txakoli as the refreshing, barely effervescent, typically white wine from Basque Country. It’s also the name for rural houses where Basques historically gathered to eat a simple meal, like eggs with chorizo, and share a jug of wine. Today, some restaurants still carry the designation “txakoli,” as a nod to the traditional comfort foods and homey hospitality they offer.

Nestled in the hills overlooking Bilbao, “just a couple kilometers from where I grew up,” Garrido said, Txakoli Simón is a timetested local favorite. “Here, you eat simple and traditional dishes, like fried eggs with red peppers, blood morcilla and excellent quality T-bone steak.” Their steak, or txuleta, is from

Galician cattle and considered by some to be the best in Bilbao — no small feat for a region that prides itself on its grill culture.

Camino San Roque, 89, 48015 Bilbao, Spain Zarate “Their tasting menu will teach you about the Cantabrian Sea,” Garrido said of the Michelin-starred Zarate in the heart of Bilbao.

Chef Sergio Ortiz de Zarate got his start working with seafood in Lekeitio, a small fishing village on the Cantabrian coast where Zarate sources much of his menu today. Though you can order traditional Basque dishes like kokotxos (the fleshy lower part of hake jaw) a la carte at his eponymous restaurant, the 11-plate tasting menu is a true undersea expedition.

A meal might start with a pair of shimmering anchovies, continue with a garlicky tangle of baby eels and end many courses later with a perfectly executed hake with pil pil sauce, a regional favorite made of olive oil, garlic and guindilla pepper.

While the pandemic-era seafood counter, La Lonja de Zarate, has since closed, the dining room is back in full swing. Whether you spring for a tasting menu (105 euros for 11 courses) or choose your own adventure (entrees start at 25 euros), Zarate insists on staying true to each carefully selected product, enhancing rather than masking its essence.

Licenciado Poza, 65, 48013, Bilbao, Spain Zuberoa “Zuberoa is one of the most famed restaurants in all of Euskadi,” said Garrido, using the Euskera word for Basque Country. Inside a 600-year-old Basque farmhouse in the village of Oiartzun, near San Sebastián, chef Hilario Arbelaitz prepares elegant takes on traditional Basque cuisine. The family-run restaurant, which holds one Michelin star, had little trouble getting diners back in the door once pandemic restrictions relaxed. “Our restaurant is known for the number of years we’ve been functioning. We’re a restaurant passed down through several generations,” said pastry chef Jose Marí Arbelaitz.

“This is the restaurant where chefs go to enjoy emblematic local dishes, like foie with chickpea cream and their mythical potato purée,” Garrido said. He also notes that their game dishes, like venison or roasted pigeon with liver toasts, are not to be missed. (Entrees start at 38.50 euros. The nine-course tasting menu costs 159.50 euros.)

How to live with COVID-19 when you are tired of living with COVID-19

By KNVUL SHEIKH and HANNAH SEO

T

he United States is in the midst of another coronavirus surge, this time thanks to the omicron subvariant BA.5. Scientists warn that the new subvariant appears to be the virus’s most transmissible version to date, and it is reinfecting people who have already dealt with previous variants once or twice, sometimes as recently as a few weeks ago.

The small percentage of people who avoided COVID-19 for 2 1/2 years are also finding out BA.5 has ways of slipping past their defenses. Even President Joe Biden, who had managed to avoid an infection, tested positive Thursday. Like many Americans, Biden and his aides had let their guard down, loosening stringent COVID-19 precautions previously employed at the White House.

Everyone just wants to get back to normal, although polls show that few Americans are sure what living with COVID-19 should really look like. Most cities are unlikely to bring back mask mandates or other protective measures used earlier in the pandemic, or even in the original omicron surge.

“We’ve had a shift in our baseline,” said Michael Osterholm, a public health researcher and director of the Center for Infectious Disease Research and Policy at the University of Minnesota. Hospitalizations have roughly doubled since May and more than 400 Americans are dying every day, but these numbers are significantly lower than the peak of the winter omicron wave.

“Earlier in the pandemic, we would never have accepted these numbers,” Osterholm said.

There’s also the potential for developing symptoms of long COVID-19, which researchers are trying to fully understand. Still, experts are weighing in on those concerns.

“We can live our lives knowing very well that this risk exists,” said Dien Ho, a bioethicist at Massachusetts College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences.

The question is: Which public health measures does the nation need to prioritize.

And what can you do individually to lower your risk of exposure, slow the relentless cycle of new variants and minimize the disruption to daily life? Here are five steps to take, if you haven’t already.

1. Max out your vaccines and boosters.

If you have not received your booster — or any shots at all — experts say that the current surge is a good reason to schedule an

appointment now. Vaccines provide excellent protection against serious illness and booster shots can amplify those benefits. But fewer than half of Americans have received boosters, and less than one-third of adults who are eligible for their second booster (or fourth shot) — those who are immunocompromised or older than 50 — have received it.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s use of the term “fully vaccinated” to describe the first two doses of vaccines early in the pandemic has not helped. Although the agency has since switched to saying that people should be “up to date” with all their shots, the early use of “fully vaccinated” has unfortunately stuck.

“A lot of people have said, ‘I’ve had my two shots and I’m done,’” Osterholm said.

2. Find your new community COVID-19 indicators.

You should keep an eye on COVID-19 statistics to figure out your own risk and decide when to add more levels of protection.

For a majority of the pandemic, the CDC’s color-coded map of community-level risk was a good indicator of cases and transmission rates. But the agency recently changed the way it calculates these risk levels to put more emphasis on local hospitalization rates.

Case numbers no longer closely track with hospitalizations because of the mix of natural or vaccine immunity, home testing and treatments that are available, blurring real-time tracking of the virus. Instead, experts recommend using other ways to stay informed of your community’s COVID-19 risks: Check local news and tap into your social networks.

Talk to your family and friends as well as other members of your community to find out whether they’ve had COVID-19 recently or know anybody who has or recently had COVID-19, said Ajay Sethi, a public health researcher at the University of WisconsinMadison. Because you’re more likely to interact with people in your network, you may get a better sense of incidence in your community and what your own risk of getting sick may be.

3. Mask up, and not just indoors.

Wear good-quality masks in public places where you need to protect yourself, whether you have been infected with COVID-19 or not. Each infection may still bring the risk of developing debilitating long COVID-19 symptoms, said Caitlin Rivers, a public health researcher at the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security.

“For me, the thought process hasn’t

changed too much,” Rivers said. “I continue to wear a mask whenever I’m indoors and try to move as many activities as I can outdoors.”

Other experts agree that if you want to go maskless, outdoor air will be considerably safer than indoor spaces. But even outdoors, the closer people are together, the higher the risk of catching the virus.

4. Keep rapid tests on hand — and use them.

Rapid tests are an effective tool to combat the spread of COVID-19 if you regularly use them. If you are only testing after you’ve had a potential exposure, then you’re doing it wrong, Sethi said. Instead, bookend social events by testing before and three to five days after large gatherings to best protect yourself and those you meet with, he said.

Keep a stash of rapid tests at home, especially if you don’t have access to a public testing site or tests through your workplace, said Alyssa Bilinski, a health policy expert at Brown University. Each household can order three rounds of free tests — or 16 tests total — from the government. People with insurance can also be reimbursed for eight free tests a month.

5. If you’re traveling, find out how to get treatment.

Before you leave, prepare for the possibility of getting infected during a trip.

“It’s a good idea to travel with a print-

edolist of all of your current medications, your medical and vaccination history and your provider’s contact information in case you need to seek medical care while traveling,” said Dr. Annie Luetkemeyer, a professor of infectious diseases at the University of California, San Francisco.

Keep plenty of room on your credit card and read your health- and travel insurance policies carefully to see which expenses they will cover if you have to extend your trip because of COVID-19. And do a little research into clinics and pharmacies at your destination.

Although you cannot get Paxlovid, an antiviral treatment for COVID-19, preemptively without a diagnosis, you can use the Test to Treat locator to find places where testing and immediate treatment are available in the United States. Pharmacists can also prescribe Paxlovid directly to patients who test positive but are not able to see a medical provider, said Kuldip Patel, senior associate chief pharmacy officer at Duke University Hospital in North Carolina.

Outside the United States, however, availability of treatment will depend on where you are. Both Paxlovid and another antiviral called molnupiravir are on the World Health Organization’s list of recommended drugs for treating COVID-19 and are approved for use in several countries.

A health care worker administers a COVID-19 vaccine in Washington, Feb. 4, 2021. The surge of the omicron subvariant BA.5 is a reminder that we need to take precautions to avoid illness, slow the relentless cycle of new variants and minimize the disruption to our daily lives.

How Indigenous athletes are reclaiming lacrosse

Tehoka Nanticoke, a member of the Haudenosaunee Nationals men’s lacrosse team, scores against Japan during the World Games, an Olympic-style event, in Birmingham, Ala., on July 10, 2022. As some of the historical originators of lacrosse, as people who see it as a sacred “medicine game,” the Haudenosaunee want to reclaim its heart.

By ANDREW KEH

B

rendan Bomberry’s voice was growing louder, his words spilling out faster and faster as he unleashed a profanity-laced pep talk on his teammates.

The Haudenosaunee Nationals men’s lacrosse team, a squad that represents the six nations of the Haudenosaunee Confederacy — the Cayuga, Mohawk, Oneida, Onondaga, Seneca and Tuscarora — was preparing to play a competitively meaningless game earlier this month at the World Games, an Olympic-style event, after being knocked out of medal contention.

Bomberry, 27, was there to remind the players that, for them, every game and every minute spent in a Haudenosaunee uniform held deep significance.

“Sports may not be political, but for our people, they are,” he said, peppering his words with expletives and jabs of his fist. “Let’s show some heart on this stage. This means something to the people back home.”

His message was plain: Representing the Haudenosaunee (formerly called the Iroquois) has come to involve a set of larger, intertwined objectives beyond winning lacrosse games.

They are fighting, first of all, for official recognition in global sports — an effort symbolic of Indigenous nations’ broader efforts to assert their nationhood and sovereignty in the geopolitical

arena. Their goal, in this realm, is acceptance from the International Olympic Committee, with the aim of appearing at the 2028 Games in Los Angeles, where the sport could make a return to the medal program after more than a century away.

“One thing that I have come to realize is that lacrosse makes us relevant in terms of our place within the world,” Bomberry said in an interview.

The Haudenosaunee (hoe-dee-noSHOW-nee) are fighting, too, for the very spirit of the game. Lacrosse is one of the fastest growing sports in the world, but in recent decades, its prevailing image in popular culture, the players said, has felt like a caricature of suburban white privilege — in Bomberry’s words, “a frat boy persona.”

As some of the historical originators of lacrosse, as people who see it as a sacred “medicine game,” the Haudenosaunee want to reclaim its heart.

“Representation here matters,” said Cody Jamieson, 35, a member of the men’s team, describing the pride of seeing the Haudenosaunee flag at the World Games in Birmingham, Alabama. “We are sovereign. Us being here at the World Games and being accepted is all the IOC needs to know.”

The Haudenosaunee men’s team — formed in 1983 and known as the Iroquois Na-

tionals until recently — was officially recognized by lacrosse’s international governing body in 1988, while the women’s team was recognized in 2008. The squads claim to be the only Indigenous teams in any sport competing at a world championship level.

Despite operating with a fraction of the talent pool enjoyed by other top teams such as the United States and Canada, the Haudenosaunee Nationals have thrived in recent years. The men’s team finished third at the past two field lacrosse world championships, in 2014 and 2018. The women’s team finished eighth out of 29 teams at the women’s world championship this month in Maryland.

This made it all the more perplexing when the men’s squad was initially left out of the field for the 2022 World Games — in which men’s lacrosse made its debut and the women’s game had its second appearance — because of some apparent confusion between World Lacrosse, the sport’s global governing body, and the International World Games Association about the team’s eligibility. The Haudenosaunee are spread across Ontario, Quebec and upstate New York and carry their own passports. They are not currently a member of the United Nations or the IOC. The news caused a minor uproar. Lacrosse officials eventually signaled a willingness to change course, but there was one problem: By then, the eight-team men’s field was considered locked. The situation was resolved, finally, when the Irish national team agreed to give up its spot in Birmingham to let the Haudenosaunee compete. (The women’s field wasn’t set until this month’s world championship, after the Haudenosaunee had been ruled eligible.)

“What kind of competition would you have in lacrosse if the first nation to ever play, and still one of the best, isn’t represented?” said the men’s team’s coach, Peter Milliman, who does not have Indigenous heritage.

That very question could echo until the 2028 Olympics.

In 2018, the IOC offered so-called provisional recognition to World Lacrosse (then known as the Federation of International Lacrosse), which meant the federation and its several dozen member nations could receive financial support from the IOC. The decision was also interpreted as a sign that lacrosse, last contested as a medal event in 1904 and 1908, could make a return to the Olympic program in time for the 2028 Games in Los Angeles.

But if the Olympic community embraces what is, in a way, the most quintessentially Amer-

ican sport for an upcoming U.S.-based Olympics, can they reasonably exclude its creators?

For the Haudenosaunee, there are some theoretical pathways to participation.

There are already close to a dozen territories that have IOC membership despite not having U.N. membership, including Puerto Rico and Hong Kong. To be formally recognized by the IOC, the Haudenosaunee would need to form a National Olympic Committee, which, among other administrative details, would require them to assemble athletes in at least four other sports.

Some see the traditional path to IOC membership as onerous, given the time constraints.

The IOC could also extend a special invitation of sorts to the Haudenosaunee, perhaps akin to how it has allowed teams of refugees to compete at recent Olympics.

“You see some of the sports in the Olympics, and it’s like, ‘How is lacrosse not in the Olympics?’” said Cassandra Minerd, 27, a member of the women’s team. “And if you’re going to have lacrosse, the people who created the game need to be there.”

In Birmingham this month, lacrosse was contested in the “sixes” format — smaller and faster than the established field and box lacrosse disciplines — that international officials have developed for potential use at the Olympics.

Neither the men’s nor women’s Haudenosaunee team made the podium — a letdown particularly for the men, who entered the World Games ranked third in the world — but the players found the experience fulfilling nonetheless.

One night, they accepted an invitation from the Cherokee Tribe of Northeast Alabama for dinner at a local hotel.

“The game that you see out there, the long-stick game, is our game,” Oren Lyons, 92, who founded the Haudenosaunee team, said to the assembled group. “It’s taken our team around the world. And it’s given an opportunity for people to understand that the Indian nations are still here.”

In more and more lacrosse arenas, the U.S. and Canadian flags commonly seen in venues across North America now fly alongside a purple Haudenosaunee flag.

That is why the visibility they enjoyed in Birmingham — and the recognition they crave for the future — matters so much to them.

“Western society keeps trying to push us back down and erase us from the history books,” said Kason Tarbell, 25, a member of the men’s team, “but with our flag showing with every other country, we’re still here, and we’re still fighting.”

A baseball museum that is ‘better than true’

By SCOTT MILLER

N

ow on display at the Los Angeles Central Library through November in an exhibit titled “Something in Common”: There is a San Diego Chicken costume, a half-smoked cigar from Babe Ruth that likely — maybe? possibly? — was spirited from a Philadelphia brothel in 1924 and a baseball signed by Mother Teresa. The real Mother Teresa? Well ... maybe not.

The artifacts are on loan from the Baseball Reliquary, a real organization blending wonder and whimsy with deep reverence. Its vibe lands somewhere near the intersection of Ripley’s Believe It or Not! and Cooperstown.

The stories these gems tell belong to the ages — as now, poignantly, so does Terry Cannon, the mirthful, thoughtful, masterful doer whose curiosity, energy and passion for his projects was boundless. The nonprofit reliquary was Cannon’s brainchild in 1996. Then came the Shrine of the Eternals, a sort of distant and mischievous cousin to the baseball Hall of Fame, in 1999.

The past few years have been difficult.

The pandemic hit, followed by Cannon’s death from cancer in August 2020. Then a seismic retrofitting indefinitely closed the Pasadena Central Library, where reliquary members and fans gathered annually to pay homage to inductees as wide-ranging and diverse as Jim Bouton (2001), Shoeless Joe Jackson (2002), Buck O’Neil (2008), Marvin Miller (2003) and Charlie Brown (2017).

In this baseball summer of All-Stars playing in Dodger Stadium and past greats like Gil Hodges, Tony Oliva, Jim Kaat, Minnie Miñoso and O’Neil being honored in Cooperstown, recent silence stoked concern that the Shrine of the Eternals might have been eternally silenced.

“Absolutely not,” said Mary Cannon, Terry’s widow and co-conspirator, noting the beginnings of a stirring comeback. “It is very much in the works.”

The website, dark since January because of technical difficulties, sprang back to life in early July. And the shrine’s 2020 class will be inducted Nov. 5 in a public ceremony at the Los Angeles Central Library’s Taper Auditorium that will coincide with the closing of the six-month exhibit the next day. That class — broadcaster Bob Costas; Rube Foster, known as the father of black baseball; and Max Patkin, the “Clown Prince of Baseball” — has been on pause for nearly two years.

“Fantastic,” said Costas, who, like many

others, assumed the reliquary was lost to the pandemic. “But I’d better show up, because I’m the only one still living. This is the Shrine of the Eternals, and the other two already are in eternity.”

The Baseball Reliquary emphasizes the game’s art, culture and characters over statistics and is financed in part by a grant from the Los Angeles County Arts Commission.

Its thousands of books, periodicals, journals, historical magazines, artifacts, original paintings and correspondence now are housed at Whittier College’s Institute for Baseball Studies.

“Terry and I conceived and connived and advanced that,” said Joe Price, who accepted a request from Cannon before his death to take charge and steer the reliquary forward. With his infectious enthusiasm and impish smile, Price seems a natural choice.

Now a professor emeritus in religious studies at Whittier, Price, alongside Charles Adams, a retired professor of English at Whittier, spent the pandemic organizing and cataloging the collection of more than 4,000 books according to Library of Congress standards.

Within is where history and historical fiction playfully mingle. It is where Moe Berg, a former catcher who later was a spy for the Office of Strategic Services during World War II, crosses paths with Chicago’s 1979 Disco Demolition Night — with keepsakes from each in the archives. Alas, the yukata jacket that Berg “might” have worn in Japan and a partially melted vinyl record “allegedly” from Chicago’s Comiskey Park appear to have lost certificates of authenticity over the years.

“Academy Awards are always won by movie stars, yet everyone else who carries their water and makes them look good, the character actors, are more interesting than the movie stars,” said Ron Shelton, who wrote and directed “Bull Durham.” Shelton inducted Steve Dalkowski, the inspiration for the movie’s Nuke LaLoosh character, into the shrine in 2009. “In a certain way, the Hall of Fame honors the movie stars, though a lot of them are dishonorable characters. The reliquary is about everything that’s not a movie star.”

The shrine’s inaugural class in 1999 included Curt Flood, who took MLB to court to challenge the reserve clause preventing player movement; Dock Ellis, perhaps best known for claiming to have thrown a no-hitter while high on LSD but who was also a civil rights advocate; and Bill Veeck, a maverick owner

who was a master showman.

At the ceremony, Cannon read a letter Ellis had received from Jackie Robinson praising his civil rights work that warned him that people in and out of the game eventually would turn against him. Ellis was moved to tears. Afterward, he donated a set of his hair curlers.

Those are authentic, as is the burlap peanut bag that held peanuts “packed for Gaylord Perry’s peanut farm.” The sacristy box “reputedly” used by a priest at St. Patrick’s Cathedral in New York to administer last rites to a dying Ruth in 1948? The jock strap “purportedly” worn by Eddie Gaedel, the smallest person to appear in an MLB game at 3 feet, 7 inches? Eyes twinkling, Price allows that the provenance of some of these items “is certainly questionable.”

“You know what was really hard to find was a child-sized jock strap,” said Mary Cannon, who added a few touches to make it seem as if it came from the 1951 St. Louis Browns. “We went to so many stores to find that thing.”

By definition, the word “reliquary” means “a container for holy relics.” To Terry Cannon and his disciples, more important than the actual authenticity of these “holy relics” is the idea of them.

Even within the baseball industry, some are unfamiliar with the Baseball Reliquary.

Nancy Faust, a retired Chicago White Sox organist who created walk-up music for batters,

had to look it up when she got the call for induction in 2018.

“My husband, Joe, said, ‘What is this, some kind of joke? A Baseball Aquarium?’”

Faust said. “I said, ‘There’s nothing fishy about it.’ When I knew who was going in with me, I thought, ‘Wow! That’s some pretty good company.’ I felt honored to be remembered.”

Faust was inducted in 2018, along with Tommy John and Rusty Staub.

Bouton once referred to the shrine as “the people’s Hall of Fame,” and inductions traditionally started with Terry Cannon leading the audience in the clanging of cowbells in tribute to Hilda Chester, perhaps the most famous fan in history.

As Cannon noted at the 2018 ceremony, Chester’s fame began to fade when the Dodgers left New York for Los Angeles, and “while she may have died in relative obscurity in 1978, in our community of fans, Hilda is royalty. And through our annual remembrance, we can be assured that the final bell has not yet rung for Hilda Chester.”

Nor, as it turns out, has it for the reliquary. To Shelton’s memory, it was poet W.D. Snodgrass who, when speaking, often would tell his audience that every time he tells a story, it’s true.

“Then he would pause,” Shelton said.

“And say, ‘I don’t know if it’s true, but it’s better than true.’ That’s what the arts do. It’s better than true. And that’s where the reliquary lives.”

The Baseball Reliquary’s collection includes a sacristy box “reputedly” used by a priest at St. Patrick’s Cathedral in New York to administer last rites to a dying Babe Ruth in 1948.

Will anyone hold Daniel Snyder accountable?

By KURT STREETER

W

ho is going to hold Daniel Snyder accountable for his misdeeds?

The NFL? Congress?

The fan base for the woeful team he has owned since 1999, now known as the Washington Commanders, which has long been the Animal House of the league?

Before last Thursday, Snyder had done all he could to stiff-arm the House Committee on Oversight and Reform, which has been investigating his team for nearly a year. Instead of appearing before the committee, he dawdled, defied, and had his legal team pull out all the delaying stops. He declined to attend the June hearing where NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell sat and faced the committee’s grilling.

Daniel Snyder agreed to step away from the Commanders’ daily operations after one Then, avoiding subpoena, he sailed of the N.F.L.’s investigations of his team concluded. During his hiatus, he participated off to the sunset, out of the country, far in the team’s February unveiling of a new name and logo. from Congress’ prying reach.

Finally, Thursday, he relented — but only halfway. Snyder agreed to speak to his recalcitrance and its own inability to rialize the first anniversary of his mother’s the committee via video conference from mold private business affairs.

But Snyder was nowhere to be found. sexual harassment of female employees, before reaching a $1.6 million settlement. to say nothing of financial impropriety and At least not in the United States.

These examples are just a sampling.

Snyder’s representatives said he was verbal abuse. The claims span 18 of the 23 Who, exactly, is running this show? years Snyder has owned the team. off doing long-planned business in Europe Snyder, that’s who.

In his June testimony before the comCongress finds itself hamstrung by — and then had gone to Israel to memo-

mittee, Goodell — who has ordered a second investigation into the Commanders — said Snyder had already been held accountable after the first. The owner agreed to steer clear of the team’s daily operations for a time and the team paid a record $10 million to the league in penalties.

What a scam.

Snyder got a nice vacation — though it’s unclear if he’ll be back to meddling in the team’s day-to-day affairs now that training camp has begun.

And does Goodell honestly think Snyder, who is said to be worth $40 billion, will sweat over $10 million? To him, $10 million doesn’t amount to so much as a wrist slap. It’s not even a bite from a flea.

Goodell and the NFL seem content with selling the narrative that all is well and good in Washington now. Snyder’s team, after all, has hired a new, diverse, well-respected staff helmed by President Jason Wright and a pro’s pro of a coach, Ron Rivera.

But who writes the checks for the new hires? Snyder. Everyone employed in that operation toils away at his bidding.

Goodell’s narrative carries no water.

The congressional committee made public last month that it had found Snyder interfered with the NFL’s investigation through a campaign of witness intimidation. Snyder’s adjutants compiled a dossier of those who shared claims of harassment against the Commanders with the press.

So, we’re all to believe the NFL storyline: This is not your father’s Washington football team. Say it enough times, and maybe you’ll be tricked into believing it.

Forcing Snyder to sell would be the one penalty with teeth. But Goodell has quickly reminded us that he couldn’t make such a move alone. “I don’t have the authority,” he told Congress in June.

Who does? The other owners. To remove Snyder, 75% of them would have to vote for it. The owners know Snyder would tangle the NFL with lawsuits from here to eternity. You can be sure many don’t want the tables reversed, and a probing glare put on them and their business practices.

On and on goes the spectacle. Snyder, Animal House president, is still able to make everyone around him respond and react to his whims. Thursday, it was the congressional committee.

Will anyone have the nerve to step up and stop this sordid show?

(Mar 21-April 20)

Follow your heart Aries, and don’t feel duty-bound to get roped into other people’s plans. The Sun/Jupiter angle, suggests good things will come your way when you trust your gut and run with it. Mind, if you’ve made a promise to help someone out, you might now regret it. Give them a call and see if you can rearrange it, or get someone to take your place.

You need your freedom today.

Libra

(Sep 24-Oct 23)

A friendship seems to be moving along very nicely and shows promise, and you’ll be keen to put energy into this bond. You may be wary of someone else and their motives though, especially if they seem aloof.

They might have exacting standards when it comes to making friends. But if they decide you’re the right material, they’ll be very loyal. Can you wait that long though, Libra?

Taurus

(April 21-May 21)

Scorpio

Gemini

(May 22-June 21)

Sagittarius

(Nov 23-Dec 21)

Capricorn

(Dec 22-Jan 20)

Attempting something you’ve never tried before? A positive line-up suggests you’re ready to have a go.

The Sun/Jupiter link gives a helping hand, and once you commit things will fall into place. Even so, the deeper you look into a situation, the more you’ll appreciate how big a part your intuition can play. If you’re ready to listen to it, it could lead you along the best path.

Ready to team up with others to make the most of an opportunity? If you’re keen to do something for your community, getting involved could enable you to gain experience that is very useful in the future.

In addition, an encounter might connect you with someone who turns out to be a great asset to you. The more you talk, the more you’ll want to collaborate with them.

Cancer

(June 22-July 23)

With a bright focus on a prominent zone there’s lots to be glad about, as an important goal begins to show promise. Go easy around finances though, as a deal or offer may disappoint. Even if it sounds good on the surface, there might be a hidden clause that reveals you won’t get as much as you think. Looking for extra cash? Think big, and you’ll find ways to increase your income.

Leo

(July 24-Aug 23)

(Oct 24-Nov 22)

The Sun’s tie with Jupiter means you’ll stand out from the crowd, and it’s likely because you feel so good. This promising blend of energies makes you more adventurous, so you might be ready to tackle something, even if it is a challenge. Be careful who you discuss this with, Scorpio. Someone may try to put the dampers on it and try to convince you not to bother. Don’t listen!

You may get an unexpected dose of good fortune, Archer. It could be a meeting that leads to a romance, or it might be learning about an exciting hobby that brings out your love of adventure and risk-taking. Something or someone can light up your life, leaving you in a much happier place. If you can’t see eye-to-eye with someone on a key matter, a compromise won’t hurt.

You could learn something about your family tree that leaves you inspired, happy and with a greater sense of purpose. Perhaps you hear a story about one of your ancestors that really chimes with you, and helps you to see your life in perspective. On another note, something you’re keen to purchase may be impossible to get hold of. With some creative thinking it will soon be yours.

Aquarius

(Jan 21-Feb 19)

You’ll be ready to seize an opportunity. If you have a chance to travel and soak in the sun or visit new places, it could recharge you like nothing else. Plus, Mercury’s face-off with Saturn, is great for getting feedback on ideas before you commit to them. You can save yourself a lot of time and expense by asking a few questions. Sense someone is being too negative, Leo? Step back!

Ready to take advantage of an opportunity? Something could show up today that you’ll be keen to get working on. It may be that a new door opens, and you’ll love what appears on the other side. It might even seem too good to be true. If you feel the urge to go for it, then do it. This chance may never come your way again. Don’t let doubts stop you in your tracks, Aquarius.

Virgo

Pisces

(Aug 24-Sep 23)

The facts of a situation may back up your feelings about it. You’ll need both your right and left brain to get the measure of it. With intuitive insight and reliable information, everything will fall into place very nicely. Regarding another issue, you might be banging your head against a brick wall. You need to try a new tack, or talk to someone who can help you gain a fresh perspective.

(Feb 20-Mar 20)

Trusting your intuition could be a big deal today, as it might lead to an offer or opportunity that is just too good to miss. If you feel it’s perfect for you, then embrace it now. Mind, someone may be a tad jealous and try to sow the seeds of doubt in your mind. This is where you need to trust yourself, and don’t be swayed by anyone no matter what they say.

Believe in yourself and do it!
