MANILA, Philippines — Senators on Wednesday pressed for urgent action to address the perennial problem of fresh graduates experiencing difficulty in landing jobs due to lacking 'soft skills' – like communication, adaptation, teamwork, and creativity – and practical expertise. The call came after a Commission on Human Rights (CHR) report underscored this among the challenges faced by graduates who were deprived of in-person learning during the peak of the pandemic. Sen. Risa Hontiveros said this is not a new problem for the education sector, noting that policies seeking to address this had already been studied and implemented.

KHARTOUM — Some foreign nationals began evacuating from a Red Sea port in Sudan on Saturday, even as air strikes again rocked the capital Khartoum after a week of fighting between rival commanders that has killed hundreds of civilians across the nation. The bloody onslaught of urban warfare has trapped large numbers in the Sudanese capital. The airport has been repeatedly targeted and many residents have been unable to leave their homes or get out of the city to safer areas. The United Nations and foreign states have urged rival military leaders to honor declared ceasefires that have mostly been ignored and to open safe passage both for fleeing civilians and for the supply of badly needed aid.

FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (AP) — Nick Bawden had dreams as a youngster of being a big league pitcher. Too many curveballs later, his right arm caused him to call an audible. He went from the mound to the huddle, switching to football and playing quarterback. 'My elbow was shot, but I could throw a football with no issues,' the New York Jets fullback recalled. And Bawden was good enough at it during a standout career at Los Gatos High School in Northern California that he drew interest from several Division I schools before choosing to play at San Diego State.
