Tottenham could be forced into January goalkeeper move after Guglielmo Vicario fractures ankleNoneJimmy Carter , who followed a principled yet tumultuous single term in the White House with a post-presidency dedicated to human rights and peace advocacy, has died. At 100, Carter — who was born on Oct. 1, 1924 — lived longer than any other U.S. president and had the longest post-presidency. His grandson, Jason Carter, spoke at the Democratic National Convention and said that the former president was looking forward to voting for Kamala Harris. In 1974, not even five months after Richard Nixon resigned the presidency, Carter entered the race for the Democratic nomination as a virtual unknown. At the time, Gallup polled a list of 31 possible Democratic contenders, and Carter’s name didn’t even make the list, according to The New York Times. Then in his first and only term as governor of Georgia, Carter had even appeared on the game show What’s My Line?, to a maskless panel that had trouble identifying who he was. Carter used his political anonymity to his advantage, running as an outsider who could bring to Washington just the type of integrity and personal morality needed in the aftermath of the Watergate era. His decision to campaign heavily in the first-in-the-nation Iowa caucuses proved fortuitous, as he used the media attention from his unexpected showing as springboard for the rest of the nomination contests. In Hollywood, the relatively young Carter became a celebrity in his own right, forging ties with Lew Wasserman that gave him an entree into fundraising and celebrity circuit. That proved to be a lifeline at key moments in the campaign: At one point, according to The Washington Post , Carter’s campaign was so broke that Wasserman quickly organized a fundraiser that got the campaign a badly needed $200,000. After securing the nomination, Carter was initially way ahead of his rival, President Gerald R. Ford, who was hurt by his decision to pardon Nixon as well as an intra party battle with its conservative wing. The gap narrowed in the final weeks of the campaign, though, after Carter, a born-again Baptist, gave an interview to Playboy in which he said, “I’ve looked on a lot of women with lust. I’ve committed adultery in my heart many times.” Carter still won the election, but by a rather narrow 297-240 electoral votes. His victory was greeted as a new era of good government in Washington — the Carter smile a contrast to the scowl of Nixon. The fact that he was from Georgia was touted as a sign of a new South, built on the rather superficial idea that the racial divisions of the 1960s were in the past. Pop culture seized on the moment with light-hearted movies like Smokey and the Bandit and TV series like The Dukes of Hazzard that generally presented the region as one of rednecks and good ole’ boys. ABC even scheduled a rural sitcom, Carter Country, that ran for two seasons. In the first line of his inauguration speech, Carter thanked Ford “for all he has done to heal our land,” but the new president signaled a shift to a center-left approach to government. In the White House, Carter shunned the pomp in favor of a more populist image: He did away with the playing of Hail to the Chief at ceremonies, and resurrected Franklin Roosevelt’s fireside chats, as he instructed Americans on conservation during the ongoing energy crisis. Even with large majorities of Democrats in the House and Senate, however, Carter’s early days in D.C. drew friction. A scandal forced a close aide, Bert Lance, from office, while the administration’s clashes with Democrats in Congress, on such things as pork barrel spending, hurt his agenda. His leadership style drew criticism for a lack of delegation. One widely shared story was that he even oversaw the schedule for play on the White House tennis court, although Stuart Eizenstat, said that Carter only wanted to ensure that he or First Lady Rosalynn Carter weren’t using it at the same time. “The notion that he micromanaged the schedule is just incorrect, but it fit in with this notion of excessive attention to detail. It was actually an act of huge generosity to his staff,” Eizenstat said at the National Book Festival in 2018. Carter’s energy policy was later seen as prescient, decades before climate change became a national priority with a solution to conserve and wean the public off of fossil fuels. The energy crisis of 1979 saw Americans again facing long lines at gas stations. Carter gave a nationally televised speech that summer, when he said that the problem was a “crisis of confidence.” “The erosion of our confidence in the future is threatening to destroy the social and the political fabric of America.” Although he never used the word, it became to be known as the “malaise” speech, contributing to the impression that Carter’s administration was flailing. The pinnacle of his presidency came on Sept. 17, 1978, when, following 12 days at Camp David, he announced a peace deal between Israel and Egypt, with a treaty signed the following year. Broadcasters interrupted their regular primetime programming — which that night included the Emmy Awards — to cover the deal. His foreign policy successes, though, were overshadowed by the Iranian hostage crisis. In November, 1979, following the revolution that ousted the U.S. supported Shah, a group of students seized the U.S. Embassy in Tehran, taking 52 diplomats and citizens hostage. The resulting attempts to free the hostages consumed Carter’s presidency. A rescue attempt on April 24, 1980 failed after helicopter crashes forced the mission to be aborted. Each night, Americans were reminded of the crisis on TV, as ABC created nightly reports called America Held Hostage with Ted Koppel, the forerunner to Nightline. Despite the ongoing crisis Carter was still viewed as having an incumbency advantage going into the 1980 presidential race, but his political fortunes turned as he faced a serious primary challenge from Edward Kennedy. Although he beat him for the presidential nomination, the intra-party battle left Democrats divided. More bruising to Carter’s political fortunes, though, was stagflation, or rising inflation combined with slowing economic growth and high unemployment. A recession in early 1980 coincided with the start of Carter’s reelection campaign. On the right, Ronald Reagan secured the Republican nomination with a mix of personal charisma and an ability to connect with working class voters, who came to be known as Reagan Democrats, disaffected with the state of the economy. Although Carter and his team tried to characterize Reagan as too extreme and untrustworthy, the former actor turned in a superior debate performance, in part with just one line in response to the incumbent president’s criticisms: “There you go again.” Reagan’s landslide was a bruising defeat for Carter, who was relatively young, 56, when he left office. He sold off his peanut business, then in deep debt , to Archer Daniels Midland, and earned a generous advance for his memoirs, Keeping Faith , the first of dozens of more books. But far from retiring, Carter pursued some of the human rights policy focus of his White House tenure. He built houses for Habitat for Humanity. He tried to solve the problem of Guinea worm disease in African countries and other regions, and, with his initiative, it has been nearly eradicated. He supervised elections. At times he acted as a peace broker, as he did during the Camp David accords. More than 20 years after leaving office, in 2002, Carter was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize. “War may sometimes be a necessary evil,” Carter said in his acceptance speech. “But no matter how necessary, it is always an evil, never a good. We will not learn to live together in peace by killing each other’s children.” After his presidency, he and Rosalynn returned to Plains, GA, where they continued to be active members of the community. The former president’s regular Sunday school lessons at Maranatha Baptist Church became a stopping point for politicians and tourists until he was well into his 90s. In a profile in 2018, The Washington Post reported that Carter was “the only president of the modern era to return full-time to the house he lived in before he entered politics.” The Carters’ two-bedroom ranch home was assessed at $167,000, less than the cost of the Secret Service vehicles parked outside, the Post noted. James Earl Carter Jr. was born on October 1, 1924. He was raised in Plains and graduated from the U.S. Naval Academy. He left his naval career in the 1950s to focus on the family business, peanut farming. At the time, Georgia was defiant in its resistance to segregation, but Carter spoke out in favor of school integration. He entered state politics in 1962 and was elected to the state senate, in an unlikely campaign that foreshadowed his work as an international election observer. He lost the Democratic primary, but proved widespread vote fraud orchestrated by a local political boss. Among other things, 117 voters had allegedly lined up in alphabetical order to cast their ballots, a fact that Carter recounted in his 2015 book, A Full Life: Reflections at Ninety. He eventually got on the general election ballot and won. Carter ran for governor of Georgia in 1966, but lost the primary to segregationist Lester Maddox. Carter ran against in 1970 and won. Carter is survived by three sons, John William (Jack), James Earl III (Chip) and Donnel Jeffrey (Jeff) and a daughter, Amy Lynn. His wife, Rosalynn, died in November 2023. They had been married for 77 years, longer than any presidential couple.
New Delhi: The decisive India-US civil nuclear deal by Prime Minister Manmohan Singh changed the course of ties between the two countries, which had for decades dealt with one another with a level of suspicion. While many in India have noted the late leader’s contribution to improving ties with America, tributes have come from Washington since his demise on 26 December. US President Joseph Biden, in his statement Friday, called Singh a “true statesman”. Biden highlighted the efforts of the late prime minister in promoting the India-US civil nuclear deal, adding that the level of cooperation seen today between the two countries would not have been possible without the efforts of Singh. “The unprecedented level of cooperation between the United States and India today would not have been possible without the Prime Minister’s strategic vision and political courage. From forging the U.S.-India Civil Nuclear Agreement to help launch the first Quad between Indo-Pacific partners, he charted pathbreaking progress that will continue to strengthen our nations—and the world—for generations to come,” said Biden in his statement published by the White House. “As we discussed then, the U.S.-India relationship is among the most consequential in the world. And together, as partners and friends, our nations can unlock a future of dignity and unlimited potential for all of our people.” Biden is not the first American leader to highlight the efforts of Singh in ensuring that the civil nuclear deal would be signed. The civil nuclear deal, also known as the 1-2-3 agreement, which was first announced in 2005, was signed in 2008. However, the Singh-led United Progressive Alliance (UPA) coalition at the time faced revolt from the four Left parties, which had been supporting the government with their 60-odd Members of Parliament. The late prime minister staked his government’s future on the deal, and was able to survive the confidence motion in July 2008, despite the loss of support from the Left parties. The deal would see India’s civil nuclear programme come under the safeguards of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), in-exchange for a waiver from the Nuclear Suppliers Group (NSG). The NSG waiver would allow India access to civilian nuclear technology and fuel from the members of the group. India is the only non-member of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) to receive this waiver. Subsequently to the India-US deal, New Delhi signed a raft of civil nuclear agreements with countries, including France, Russia, the UK, Canada and Kazakhstan. “Dr. Singh was one of the greatest champions of the U.S.-India strategic partnership, and his work laid the foundation for much of what our countries have accomplished together in the past two decades. His leadership in advancing the U.S.-India Civil Nuclear Cooperation Agreement signified a major investment in the potential of the U.S.-India relationship,” said Antony J. Blinken, the US Secretary of State in his condolence message. Condoleezza Rice, the US Secretary of State, between 2005 and 2009, when the deal was being negotiated and finalised, also described the role that Singh essayed in improving the ties between New Delhi and Washington D.C. “I am very saddened to learn of the passing of India’s former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh – a great man and a great leader who helped to put US-Indian relations on a fundamentally new footing with the landmark US-India Civilian Nuclear Agreement of 2008,” Rice said in a post on the social media platform ‘X’. Prime Minister Singh, she said, risked his political future and then remade his government to gain the support needed to secure a deal that would ultimately change the geopolitical trajectory of the region and have far reaching implications for decades to come. The India-US ties have grown from strength to strength in the past two decades. In 2023, the two countries launched the Initiative on Critical and Emerging Technologies (iCET), led at the National Security Adviser level, cutting across all fields of technological cooperation. Defence ties have deepened, while the US has been one of India’s largest trading partners for the last five years.

Forte Speech & Language Therapy Announces New Report on the Benefits of In-Home Speech Therapy 11-25-2024 09:08 PM CET | Politics, Law & Society Press release from: Getnews / PR Agency: Spine PR Image: https://www.getnews.info/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/1732071668.jpg Forte Speech & Language Therapy is pleased to announce the release of a comprehensive new report highlighting the significant benefits of in-home speech therapy in Los Angeles [ https://www.fortespeech.com/ ] for individuals of all ages. The report outlines how in-home speech therapy can offer unique advantages, including enhanced convenience, individualized care, and better engagement for clients. As speech and language therapy plays a crucial role in improving communication, cognition, and quality of life, Forte's report underscores the increasing demand for home-based therapy sessions. This is true particularly for families with young children, elderly individuals, and those with mobility challenges. The report also presents data that demonstrate the positive outcomes of therapy delivered in the comfort of the home environment. The report takes a particular interest in children's speech therapy [ https://www.fortespeech.com/services/pediatric/ ] in an in-home setting, and its benefits for both kids with speech or language disorders, and their families. "Let's face it - we're all living busy, complicated lives," the report outlines. "Do you want to drive across Los Angeles in rush hour traffic after you've been working hard all day just to get to your speech therapy appointment?" But there's more to it than just convenience. When children receive speech therapy in their own home, it helps them to feel more at ease. This helps improve the efficacy of speech therapy from the first session when compared to in clinic services. All kids can benefit from this, the report outlines, but it's particularly beneficial for certain populations. For example, neurodivergent kids are often less accommodating to changes in schedule. This is also true for kids with anxiety-related speech disorders, like selective mutism, or for kids with diagnoses that affect their mobility, like cerebral palsy or muscular dystrophy. In-home speech therapy also gives kids access to their favorite toys, which their speech therapist can use in treatment. But the benefits don't end there. When a child receives speech therapy interventions in their home, they have the chance to meet the whole family. This includes parents and caregivers, siblings, and anyone else who lives in the home. This makes it easier to get questions answered, but it actually improves a child's therapeutic outcomes. When everyone in the family is involved, they can more easily reinforce therapeutic goals. Forte Speech & Language Therapy's team of licensed speech-language pathologists (SLPs) provide evidence-based, in-home therapy across a variety of diagnoses. These include articulation disorders, developmental delays, stuttering, and more. The new report serves as a valuable resource for families and healthcare professionals seeking insights into the advantages of this flexible and impactful approach to therapy. The report, titled "Why Choose In-Home Speech Therapy? [ https://www.fortespeech.com/why-choose-in-home-speech-therapy/ ]" can be accessed via the clinic's website.

NoneFORMER President Jimmy Carter has died at age 100. Carter , the 39th president of the United States , died today after nearly two years in hospice care. His son Chip Carter confirmed the former president died on Sunday around 3:45 pm ET. Carter died peacefully surrounded by his family who paid an emotional tribute to the former leader. His son Chip said: “My father was a hero, not only to me but to everyone who believes in peace, human rights, and unselfish love. “My brothers, sister, and I shared him with the rest of the world through these common beliefs. Read more on Jimmy Carter "The world is our family because of the way he brought people together, and we thank you for honoring his memory by continuing to live these shared beliefs.” Public events will commemorate Carter in Atlanta and Washington, D.C. The former president decided to live out the remainder of his days at his home in Plains, Georgia . Carter, the beloved Democrat and Nobel Peace Prize winner, had experienced several health issues in recent years including melanoma that spread to his liver and brain. Most read in The US Sun He became the longest-living president and the first to make it 100 years old. Carter's death came over a year after the death of his wife, Rosalynn Carter , who died on November 19, 2023, at age 96. Two days before her death, Rosalynn joined her husband in hospice care at their home in Georgia. The former first lady and fierce advocate for mental health was diagnosed with dementia in early 2023. Before his death, Jimmy Carter was the first to pay tribute to his wife of 77 years, "Rosalynn was my equal partner in everything I ever accomplished. "She gave me wise guidance and encouragement when I needed it. As long as Rosalynn was in the world, I always knew somebody loved and supported me." During Rosylann's service in late November 2023, Amy, the Carters' daughter, read her father's love letter he dedicated to his wife while he was in the Navy. "My darling, every time I have ever been away from you, I have been thrilled when I returned to discover just how wonderful you are," Carter penned more than 70 years ago. "While I am away I try to convince myself that you really are not, could not, be as sweet and beautiful as I remember. "But when I see you I fall in love with you all over again. Does that seem strange to you? It doesn't to me. "Goodbye darling, until tomorrow, Jimmy." Jimmy Carter is survived by his four children, James, Donnel, Amy, and Jack, as well as 22 grandchildren and great-grandchildren. PRESIDENT CARTER Carter served in the White House from 1977 to 1981. Prior to his presidency, he served as a Georgia State Senator from 1963 to 1967 and as the 76th governor of Georgia from 1971 to 1975. Carter was considered a longshot for the presidency when he announced his presidential campaign in December 1974. As a dark-horse candidate, Carter was not well-known outside of the home state of Georgia. However, Carter's two-year campaign trail paid off when he won the Democratic nomination and narrowly defeated incumbent Republican president Gerald Ford during the 1976 presidential election. Carter, who entered office in January 1977, took over a nation that was still reeling from the events of the Vietnam War , where approximately 59,000 US troops died on the frontlines. Two days after being sworn in as president, Carter famously pardoned all the draft evaders from the Vietnam War. But, his presidency was marred by rising energy costs, mounting inflation, and continuing tensions with foreign adversaries, including the threat of nuclear war with the Soviet Union. Carter's hopes for reelection eventually crumbled due to the Iran hostage crisis. On November 4, 1979, a group of militarized Iranian college students stormed the US Embassy in Tehran and took 52 American diplomats and citizens hostage. The American public turned on Carter for his soft approach to the crisis, which lasted 444 days. The hostage crisis paralyzed his presidency and hampered his efforts at a second term. Carter would eventually lose the 1980 presidential election in a landslide to Republican presidential candidate Ronald Reagan . LIFE AFTER THE WHITE HOUSE After leaving the Oval Office, Carter devoted his life to diplomacy and human rights work . He founded the Carter Center in 1982, an organization with a fundamental commitment to human rights and the alleviation of human suffering, according to their website. The non-profit has worked to improve the quality of life for people in countries all over the world. In 2002, Jimmy Carter won the Nobel Peace Prize for his work seeking peaceful resolutions to global conflicts, advancing human rights and democracy, and promoting economic and social development. The Carter Center also devoted some resources to ensuring free and fair elections and monitored the 2020 elections in the United States . Carter had mostly retired from the public eye in recent years, particularly in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic and a cancer diagnosis in 2015. While Carter lived a more private life in his latter years, he was vocal in his opposition to certain political moves of the presidents who followed him. He disagreed with Reagan’s handling of peace in the Middle East and was opposed to the Iraq War under George W Bush . Carter criticized the Trump administration but also disagreed with his fellow Democratic president, Barack Obama, regarding the use of drone strikes against suspected terrorists. On his 96th birthday , the former president was honored with a parade of golf carts and other vehicles by local residents, which he and his wife observed from their residence while wearing masks due to the Covid-19 pandemic. During the 2020 presidential election, Carter endorsed Joe Biden at the Democratic National Convention and said via video, "Joe Biden was my first and most effective supporter in the Senate ... For decades, he’s been my loyal and dedicated friend." To mark his first 100 days in office, Biden and First Lady Jill Biden visited Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter at their home in Plains, Georgia. "We sat and talked about the old days," Biden told reporters afterward. Jimmy Carter was the longest-lived US president in history, surpassing George HW Bush , who was 94 at the time of his death.
