April 11, 2019

Texas Longhorns freshman Jaxson Hayes has declared for the NBA draft and will hire an agent, the school announced Thursday.

“I have always dreamed about playing in the NBA. Now that I have the chance to realize that dream, I would like to pursue that opportunity,” Hayes said in a statement.

The 6-foot-11 forward averaged 10 points and 5.0 rebounds in his only season with the Longhorns. He started 21 of 32 games and shot 72.8 percent from the floor.

The Big 12 Freshman of the Year is a potential lottery pick, according to several draft outlets. ESPN ranks him as the No. 9 prospect.

–LSU freshman guard Javonte Smart announced on social media that he will enter the draft, joining teammates Naz Reid, Skylar Mays and Tremont Waters.

Smart averaged 11.1 points, 3.3 rebounds and 2.4 assists in his lone year in Baton Rouge.

LSU sat Smart for the regular-season finale following the suspension of coach Will Wade over allegations he was linked to the NCAA’s pay-for-play scandal. It has been speculated that Wade was part of a scheme to pay to gain Smart’s commitment to LSU.

Missouri man charged with infecting woman with HIV, then offering to pay for her silence

A Missouri man was charged Wednesday for allegedly infecting an unsuspecting woman with HIV and then offering to pay her for her silence once police became involved.

Marcus Price, 36, is facing two felony charges and the possibility of life in prison after authorities say he had unprotected sex with a woman in March 2018 and failed to tell her he was HIV positive, The Springfield News-Leader reported.

The woman, who has not been identified, only found out she was HIV positive when she was hospitalized later that same month.

PENNSYLVANIA BOY, 4, DIES AFTER BEING IMPALED WITH GLASS SHARD

According to a probable cause statement obtained by The News-Leader, Price tested positive since at least 2010 in Illinois. The woman had been tested a few months before her encounter with Price and did not have and sexually transmitted infections at the time.

In addition to being charged with recklessly infecting another person with HIV -  a Class A felony which could carry a life sentence - Price is also charged with witness tampering.

Price allegedly offered to pay the woman with money he was supposed to get from another legal settlement if she promised not to cooperate with investigators, KHOU reported.

Church sorry for Easter lesson encouraging attacks on pastor

An Ohio church has apologized for an Easter lesson in which a pastor encouraged students to slap, cut and spit on him — incidents that were captured in videos and posted online.

Justin Ross is lead pastor at Impact City Church in Pataskala (puh-TAS'-kuh-luh) near Columbus. He says the incident happened Monday at an organized hangout session for middle and high school students.

Ross says an associate pastor encouraged the attacks on himself as a way to help students learn about Easter and the crucifixion of Jesus.

The Columbus Dispatch reports that several students took the associate pastor up on the offer, and one cut him on the neck. Ross says cellphone recordings sparked backlash.

Ross said the topic was important, but the lesson went too far and was inappropriate.

Rural America has to drive long distances for emergency care

HOUSTON, Miss. - Getting emergency care for people living in rural areas is increasingly more difficult as hospitals there struggle to stay afloat.

It’s evident in small towns like Houston, Miss., where people living there must travel at least 20 miles west of town to visit the nearest emergency room. That’s has been the case for the entire county since the local hospital in Houston closed its emergency room in the fall of 2014 because it was no longer financially viable.

Jenny Little, a resident in the town of less than 4,000, knows the struggle of living in a rural town without emergency care. She recently had to make a lengthy trip to two separate hospitals to get emergency care she desperately needed for stomach ulcers.

“It’s very difficult,” Little said. “You got to go miles to get to an emergency room.”

HOW HEALTHCARE TECHNOLOGY MAKES RURAL AMERICA FEEL BETTER

When Little thought that she hadn’t been given the help she needed at her first trip to the emergency room in Calhoun City, she opted to drive to the second emergency room nearest to town, which was a 45-minute drive for her.

“I had to go to Tupelo and ended up having a diagnosis, to me, that was significant enough to need help for,” she said as she waited to retrieve her prescription from the local discount pharmacy. “That’s not good enough.”

That is the experience for many people living in rural areas across the country. According to the Pew Research Center, residents in rural areas on average have to travel more than double the length it takes people in urban areas to get to the hospital for emergency services. Data shows that people in urban areas travel an average of 4.4 miles to get to an emergency room, while people in rural areas travel 10.6 miles on average.

PROGRESS TOWARD HIV PREVENTION HAS 'STALLED,' CDC SAYS

Numbers from the University of North Carolina’s Sheps Center for Health Services Research paint a picture of why that may be the case. Since January 2010, a total of 102 rural hospitals around the country have either modified their services or closed their doors altogether. The latter has been the case for about two-thirds of those hospitals.

According to the Pew Research Center, people in rural areas on average have to travel more than twice the distance than people in urban areas to get emergency care. (Fox News)

Dr. George Pink, Deputy Director of Rural Health Research Program at UNC, said a combination of a lack probability, a decline in volume and older, sicker patients are among the key factors that are causing rural hospitals to close their doors.

Those communities also tend to have higher rates of uninsured, Medicaid and Medicare patients, which leads to more cases of under compensation or no compensation at all for medical providers.

“These hospitals have been losing money year after year until finally they just have spent down their reserves, they’ve sold off their assets, they’ve exhausted their bank loans,” Pink said. “They just cannot find a way to continue financially.”

According to a recent report, 21 percent of about 1,700 rural hospitals across 43 states are currently at risk of closing if their financial situations don’t improve. Out of the 43 states, about 34 of them have five or more rural hospitals that are at high financial risk. Majority of those hospitals are in southern and Midwest states. Mississippi, Kansas, and Georgia lead the pack with more than two dozen hospitals, respectively, at financial risk of closure. However, it’s not clear how much time these rural hospitals have before they are forced to close their doors.

According to Pink, it may not be realistic to think most rural hospitals can offer a full range of medical services if they are going to be sustainable for the long term. Whatever the case, he believes the status quo is longer going to cut it, especially in emergency situations.

“Access to emergency care, if you don’t have that in a timely way if you’re having a stroke or a heart attack, or if you’re giving birth it’s probably only a matter of time before a serious event occurs,” he explained. “We need to step up the pace of innovation. We need to try some of these things out in rural communities, see if they work, find out where they work and why they work.”

Otherwise, Little believes options are few and far between for people living in rural America.

"A lot of people," she said, "will just suffer.”

CARACAS (Reuters) – Venezuela’s opposition-controlled National Assembly on Tuesday approved an expansion of the ad hoc board of state-run oil company Petroleos de Venezuela to nine members from the current five, and also allowed it to negotiate foreign debt.

The board’s new head will be former PDVSA executive Luis Pacheco, said lawmaker Elias Matta, head of the assembly’s energy commission. The expanded board would also be able to represent the company overseas, Matta said in congress.

Border agents in Texas snag more than 400 illegals in 5-minute span

It took a mere five minutes on Tuesday morning for Border Patrol agents in Texas to apprehend more than 400 illegal immigrants.

A California man who allegedly fatally shot his ex-girlfriend in broad daylight last month before fleeing the country has been returned to the U.S. following his arrest in Mexico on Wednesday, authorities said.

Julio Cesar Rocha, 25, of Montlcair, is accused of shooting his 25-year-old ex-girlfriend Thalia Flores and a second unidentified male victim March 21 around 2:45 p.m. while the two were sitting in a vehicle in the parking lot of a discount store in Chino. Both communities are about 36 miles east of Los Angeles.

ARREST MADE IN DOUBLE HOMICIDE OF EX-PRO HOCKEY PLAYER, COMMUNITY ADVOCATE, POLICE SAY

Julio Cesar Rocha, 25, of Montlcair, Calif. was located in Mexico Wednesday and returned to California where he faces murder and attempted murder charges related to the death of his ex-girlfriend, Thalia Flores.

Flores died at the scene. The man, whose name was not released, walked to a nearby hospital where he’s recovering from his gunshot wounds.

Rocha allegedly fled the scene and remained at large for more than a month, the Daily Bulletin reported. He was formally arrested at 4:30 p.m. after arriving at Los Angeles International Airport from Mexico, KTLA-TV reported.

The suspect was booked at the West Valley Detention Center in Rancho Cucamonga on murder and attempted murder charges, the City of Chino Police Department said on Facebook.

Flores ended her seven-year relationship with Rocha just two months before her death and still lived in fear of him until that point, a sister of the victim, Bernice Flores, told the Daily Bulletin.

“He said himself so many times to other people, ‘If I can’t have her, no one will.’ ” Flores said, adding that her sister stayed in the relationship longer that she would have liked in fear that Rocha would hurt her or her family if they broke up.

Rocha was convicted on misdemeanor battery in 2016 and sentenced to 60 days in prison. He was originally charged with misdemeanor assault with a deadly weapon, but the charges were lowered in a plea deal, the Daily Bulletin reported.

Rocha was convicted of misdemeanor resisting or obstructing a peace officer in 2014. A second charge of misdemeanor battery was dropped in a plea deal, and Rocha was ordered to complete a 26-week anger management course, according to San Bernardino County Superior Court records. Rocha was later arrested and sentenced to 10 days behind bars for failing to complete the course.

Multiple people died Thursday when a semitrailer plowed into stationary traffic that resulted in explosions and flames on a Colorado freeway, authorities said.

The incident occurred just before 5 p.m. in the Denver suburb of Lakewood when a truck driver lost control while traveling east on Interstate 70, according to a preliminary investigation. The collision started a chain reaction and a diesel fuel spill, Lakewood police spokesman Ty Countryman told the Denver Post.

“This is looking to be one of the worst accidents we’ve had here in Lakewood,” he said.

The driver of the runaway truck survived. At least one truck was carrying lumber, another was hauling gravel and the third may have been carrying mattresses, KDVR-TV reported.

President Trump will address members and leaders of the National Rifle Association on Friday at the group’s annual convention in Indiana.

Around 80,000 gun enthusiasts and more than 800 exhibitors are expected to pack the Indiana Convention Center in Indianapolis for the three-day event, the Indianapolis Star reported. It will mark the third straight year that Trump will deliver the keynote address, where he is expected to champion the rights of gun owners.

“Donald Trump is the most enthusiastic supporter of the Second Amendment to occupy the Oval Office in our lifetimes,” Chris Cox, executive director of the NRA’s Institute for Legislative Action (ILA), said in a statement. “President Trump’s Supreme Court appointments ensure that the Second Amendment will be respected for generations to come. Our members are excited to hear him speak and thank him for his support for our Right to Keep and Bear Arms.”

“Donald Trump is the most enthusiastic supporter of the Second Amendment to occupy the Oval Office in our lifetimes.”

COLORADO ENACTS ‘RED FLAG’ LAW TO SEIZE GUNS FROM THOSE DEEMED DANGEROUS, PROMPTING BACKLASH

Trump and Vice President Mike Pence spoke at last year’s convention in Dallas. During his speech, Trump assured gun owners that he would protect their Second Amendment rights, according to the paper.

“Your Second Amendment rights are under siege,” Trump told the cheering audience in Dallas. “But they will never, ever be under siege as long as I am your president.”

Trump has supported some gun control measures in the past. Last year, his administration imposed a ban on bump stocks, attachments that enable semiautomatic rifles to fire in rapid bursts. Although, he most recently threatened to veto two Democratic gun control bills.

This year’s convention comes as the NRA faces outside pressure and internal problems. The group has seen its legislative agenda stall amid a series of mass shootings — including a massacre at a Parkland, Fla., high school in February 2018 that left 17 dead and launched a youth movement against gun violence.

It’s also grappling with infighting in its ranks, money problems and investigations into whether Russian agents courted officials and funneled money through the group.

“I’ve never seen the NRA this vulnerable,” said John Feinblatt, president of Everytown for Gun Safety, a nonprofit that advocates for gun control measure.

The convention will run through the weekend and conclude Sunday.

The Associated Press contributed to this report.

(Reuters) – Ailing British retailer Debenhams said two proposed company voluntary arrangements (CVA) could see all its stores remaining open during 2019, with 22 closures planned for next year, putting about 1,200 jobs at risk.

Debenhams’ lenders took control of the retailer earlier this month in a process designed to keep its shops open at the expense of shareholders.

BENGALURU (Reuters) – Chinese brands controlled a record 66 percent of Indian smartphone market in the first quarter, led by Xiaomi Corp, a report showed, with volumes rising 20 percent on the back of popularity for brands like Vivo, RealMe and Oppo.

Xiaomi’s India shipments fell by 2 percent over last year, but the Beijing-based company was still the biggest smartphone brand in the country, followed by Samsung Electronics Co Ltd, according to Hong-Kong based Counterpoint Research.

Shipment volumes for Vivo jumped 119 percent, while those of Oppo rose 28 percent.

“Vivo’s expanding portfolio in the mid-tier range ($100 to $180) drove its growth along with aggressive Indian Premier League cricket campaign,” Counterpoint analysts said.

India is the world’s fastest growing market for smartphones, where affordable pricing coupled with features like “selfie” cameras and big screens have popularized Chinese brands.

Video streaming services like Netflix Inc and Hotstar, as well as heavy usage of messaging apps like Facebook Inc’s WhatsApp have further spurred demand.

“Data consumption is on the rise and users are upgrading their phones faster as compared to other regions,” Counterpoint’s Tarun Pathak said.

“As a result of this, the premium specs are now diffusing faster into the mid-tier price brands. We estimate this trend to continue leading to a competitive mid-tier segment in coming quarters.”
