`It Ain’t Over’ spotlights Yogi Berra’s play over persona, narrated by granddaughter

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 19:18:22 GMT

NEW YORK (AP) — Lindsay Berra wanted grandpa Yogi remembered as a constant in Most Valuable Player voting before he was a regular in “Bartlett’s Familiar Quotations.”“He played his last game on May 9, 1965, and then spent nearly 50 years making commercials and coaching and saying funny things on television,” she said. “If you’re under 50 years old, you have no recollection of grandpa as a player at all. But you’ve seen him on television your whole life, right? So I think it’s a recency bias.”“It Ain’t Over,” a 98-minute documentary on Yogi Berra’s life, aims to elevate his playing career alongside his persona as a cultural icon. The Sony Pictures Classics film premiered last June at the Tribeca Festival and opens in theaters in the New York tri-state area and Los Angeles on Friday, which would have been Berra’s 98th birthday. Distribution expands to additional markets on May 19.Producer Peter Sobiloff attended the Yogi Berra Museum Celebrity Golf Classic on June 11, 2018...

UK Labour Party aide quits over harassment complaint

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 19:18:22 GMT

LONDON — An aide to the U.K. Labour Party who was accused of sexual harassment resigned Thursday after POLITICO revealed he was to be let off with a warning. The senior adviser, who was employed by a member of Keir Starmer’s frontbench team, was alleged to have groped a young female intern — a complaint which was upheld by two separate investigations.She complained first to the parliamentary authorities, which resulted in a letter of apology, and then to the Labour Party, which took three years to investigate the case.When the party reached a decision last month they informed the woman he would only be issued with a “final warning” and no further disciplinary action would be taken, leading to an outcry from senior women in the party.However, the party confirmed Thursday the man had quit his post.A Labour spokesperson said: “Two separate investigations were carried out… into the same complaint received about an individual. He fully complied with the proc...

EU wants to put the squeeze on Russian crude smugglers

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 19:18:22 GMT

BRUSSELS — An EU effort to close loopholes that allow Russian oil to flow into the European Union is finding broad support from member countries, officials and diplomats have said.Representatives from the 27 member countries met Thursday to discuss technical aspects of the 11th package of sanctions against Russia — a response to Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine. According to three people with knowledge of the talks, there is currently no major opposition to stepping up enforcement of existing energy embargoes — even from countries believed to be benefiting from undeclared imports of Russian crude.“Of course this package is different from the others, focusing on circumvention, and it will have a different impact so we are taking our time to look at all the proposals,” said an EU diplomat from a country that has faced pressure to cut energy ties with Russia. “But for us, enforcement isn’t proving to be a major issue — we don’t have red lines on this.”A draft version of the Eur...

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 19:18:22 GMT

State officials on Thursday offered a first glimpse into efforts to redetermine MassHealth members’ eligibility.About six weeks into the process, which is expected to take a year, about 70,000 Massachusetts households have begun the process of assessing whether they still qualify for state-funded health insurance.Hundreds of thousands people are expected to lose MassHealth coverage over the next year as federal coverage requirements in place since March 2020 expired on March 31. As the state redetermines eligibility for the first time since the pandemic began, those who lose coverage will need to find new health insurance plans. Budget writers on Beacon Hill are already factoring into their spending plans massive savings associated with lower MassHealth rolls.About 50 percent of MassHealth members will be automatically renewed. The other half of the 2.3 million people enrolled in the program will be receiving a blue envelope containing forms to fill out with their current info...

Mission accomplished?: What does the end of the COVID emergency mean?

Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 19:18:22 GMT

Mary Hynes | Las Vegas Review-JournalThe U.S. government on Thursday will lift the COVID-19 public health emergency that has been in effect for more than three years.By ending the emergency phase of the public health response, “That kind of puts a period at the end of the pandemic sentence,” Vanderbilt University’s Dr. William Schaffner, an expert on infectious diseases, said.“We’re clearly past the pandemic phase of COVID-19 here in the United States,” he said. “We no longer have a stressed out health care system. We no longer have as many people becoming sick, seriously ill and dying of this vicious infection.”However, he cautioned against thinking it’s “mission accomplished.”“This virus is still with us,” and killing 200 to 300 people in the U.S. every day, he said.The phase of the disease has gone from pandemic to endemic, or consistently present.“And in order to keep ourselves protected against this virus on a long-term basis — because it’s not going to disappear — we’re going ...
