One Of Only Four Green Sand Beaches In World Desecrated By Tourists

The destination is accessible only by foot, so tourists on Hawaii’s Big Island must hike for several miles to reach the unique olive-colored beach. But in recent years, visitors have illegally created their own dirt paths and roads, carving up the sacred nearby landscape, according to SFGate, a San Francisco-based news outlet. “This sacred and treasured place for the people of Kau has been desecrated and exploited by off-road enthusiasts, thoughtless actions of visitors, and sports fishermen despite the presence of iwi kupuna [ancestral bones and burials] and sacred sites,” the Department of Hawaiian Home Lands (DHHL) said in a 2016 resources management plan describing the problem....

A wide-ranging survey conducted among 2,382 U.S. residents by CBS News/YouGov found a 55 percent majority have already been vaccinated or plan to get the shots as soon as they become available.

But about one-third of unvaccinated people said they don’t trust the science behind the vaccines and accused the scientists who produced them of continually getting coronavirus information wrong....

One Year Later

The gulf war was supposed to reshape the Mideast–and on the way, to encourage regional democracy and even the redistribution of wealth. Some change may still be possible; last week Syria agreed to a formula for a Mideast peace conference, a concession that put pressure on Israel to agree to genuine negotiations on the Palestinian issue (page 33). But one year after Iraq’s invasion of Kuwait ignited the gulf conflict, most of the same faces and the same tired policies remain....

Onyekuru Always Let Himself Down Anderlecht S Vanhaezebrouck Criticises Everton Loanee

Despite being deployed out of position for the most part of the ongoing season, the former Eupen player is the joint top goalscorer in the Belgian top-flight with nine goals. He was dropped to the bench against Ivan Leko’s men on Sunday, and only entered the fray when his side were already three-goal down but that was not enough to spare him Vanhaezebrouck’s wrath. “It does not make much sense to put Onyekuru at the center, but when he is standing there, he does not move, and he just moves to the left… he always let himself down,” Vanhaezebrouck was quoted as saying by Voetbalkrant....

Oops They Did It Again

Once considered the most reliable box-office guarantee outside of Julia Roberts, sequels have now become one of the trickiest feats in show business. There’s no guarantee they will fare as well as the first film–and they almost always cost more to make. It can take years to reassemble the creative team behind the original film, and it better be worth the wait. “Nothing kills a franchise quicker than turning out a bad sequel,” says John Davis, who spent three years on this summer’s “Doctor Dolittle 2....

Open Surgery Pros And Cons

Open surgeries are less common than they used to be due to the creation of “minimally invasive” surgical techniques that involve smaller incisions or even (in some cases) no incision at all. These surgeries use multiple incisions less than an inch in length, with a camera and instruments inserted into the small incisions, and the surgeon is able to watch the procedure on a large monitor as if playing a very technical video game....

Opponents Of Ncaa Satellite Camp Ban Could Turn To Antitrust Law

This loophole closed April 8 when an SEC proposal passed what essentially permits FBS schools to only conduct on-campus camps or at facilities they normally use for practice or competition. It also prevents FBS coaches from being employed at another school’s camp. Although the proposal awaits final approval by the NCAA Board of Governors, it has been met with criticism by some players, coaches and administrators who argue the change limits recruiting opportunities for players and limits additional income and professional development chances for coaches....

Opportunity Knocks

This is the week that changes for Brett Hundley—good or bad. This is where UCLA can become a serious threat in the Pac-12 and national championship races, and he can become a serious threat to win the Heisman Trophy. The rise of UCLA late last season and through this fall has been all about the emergence of one of the game’s most talented (and overlooked) quarterbacks. It was Hundley who nearly did enough last year to lead the Bruins to the Pac-12 title....
