Labor Leader Rebecca White is failing yet another leadership test, only this time it's one that she set for herself. Wishy-Washy White has staked her leadership on keeping David O'Byrne out of her Party. Yesterday, Ms White pretended her "position hasn't changed", yet she confirmed she won't campaign against him, and she will accept him into her team if he's preselected and elected. Directly asked yesterday if she would lobby for Mr O'Byrne not to be pre-selected, Ms White's answer was a simple: "no".

It's become evident to some of Putin's propagandists that they may face charges in a war crimes tribunal, but their own words are still strengthening the case for the prosecution, reports Julia Davis . "Our research is ongoing, and it's still early. But so far, we have found that these short bursts of independence have led to reduced anxiety in kids and their parents, increased self-esteem and willingness to try difficult things, and more free time for parents, who don't have to spend every waking moment chasing their kid.

Published Tue May 16 2023 09:00:00 GMT+0000 (Coordinated Universal Time) by Olivia Ebertz On March 28, 2023, a prison guard was waiting outside a room in Rhode Island Hospital. The cogs of justice had been churning in the background for weeks, and the day had arrived: after months of being denied bail, Carol Pona was being released from Rhode Island Department of Corrections custody.  But Pona would die in that very spot approximately six hours later.  On the same day, a little less than two miles away, lawmakers would meet in a Senate committee to weigh a new bill that could overhaul the very measure that saw Pona locked up in the first place.

When former first lady and Metro Manila governor Imelda Marcos approved the Bagong Lipunan Sites and Services (BLISS) housing program in Metro Manila and appointed me to implement it in 1982, the goal was to build as many housing units for those who needed housing but could not afford the loan interest rates of private banks. With their regular jobs, they were also overqualified for the units offered by the National Housing Authority (NHA). Despite difficulties, the Metro Manila BLISS housing units in four- and five-story buildings on government-owned land were quickly absorbed by the target market.
