Unseasonably hot temperatures continue in much of British Columbia with a heat warning issued for the north coast, including Kitimat and Terrace. The province’s River Forecast Centre also issued several high streamflow advisories for the Skeena River, the Upper Columbia and East and West Kootenay Rivers and others, as high temperatures accelerated the spring snow melt. People are being warned to stay away from fast moving waters and unstable banks. B.C.’s interior has been particularly hard-hit by flooding and fires this spring, including Cache Creek, where flooding earlier this month forced people from their homes and damaged highways.

McGee, one of the school’s college counselors, is the architect of the famous “rejection party.” To attend this party, you only need one thing — a printed letter of rejection from a college to which you applied. Bring the rejection letter, step right up to the shredder and push start. AdvertisementIn Braff’s story McGee says, “You have to print it out because there is no satisfaction in deleting an email.” After the shredder, the bonus round is an ice cream sundae, because after all, “ice cream heals all wounds.” It is a rejection party, not a wake. Harvard Business School rejected Warren Buffett, and Nobel Prize winner in medicine, Harold Varmus, was rejected by Harvard Medical School — twice. And hold on to the hurt— trust me, it will feel very good later.

Lithium, coined 'the new oil,' is shifting global markets. According to the United States Geological Survey, global consumption increased by 41 per cent from 2021 to 2022. In 2022, Canada produced an estimated 500 tonnes of lithium — an amount dwarfed by the tens of thousands of tonnes produced by global lithium powerhouses. Johnson notes that China — the world's third-largest producer of lithium — connects "the next link in the supply chain," often acting as the world's processor and manufacturer. China is also responsible for over half of the world's lithium refining.

Nabawi and her sister were among about 300 people who gathered in Richmond Hill on Mother’s Day at an outdoor event held to highlight the plight of women in Afghanistan. The Mother’s Day event specifically focused on the Hazara community, an ethno-religious minority group facing increased attacks since the Taliban took over. “We co-ordinated with other organizations to help the Hazara community because they have specific needs, as they are being discriminated against and persecuted,” said Halima Bahman, co-founder of Hazara Women organization. “They need specialized support.”Having fled the Taliban in 1998 over violent attacks against the Hazara, Bahman experienced trauma and persecution first-hand. Event volunteer Suhaila Akbarzada arrived in Canada with three children in 2017, having completed a Grade 4 level of education.

Leave your thoughts in the comments section, below. A moose calf went for an unexpected dip in a backyard pool in northeastern New Brunswick on May 9. The homeowners attempted to rescue the calf but after an hour and a half of trying they gave up.

If neither candidate secures more than 50 per cent, the two will compete in a runoff vote in two weeks. Turkey’s election authority, the Supreme Electoral Board, said it was providing numbers to competing political parties “instantly” but would not make the results public until the count was completed and finalized. Earlier Sunday, Anadolu and Anka provided different partial results from the country’s presidential election, with the state-run news agency indicating Erdogan would squeak out a victory but the private agency saying the contest was headed toward a runoff. Under Erdogan, Turkey has seen the suppression of freedom of expression and assembly. In his election campaign, Erdogan used state resources and his domineering position over media to try to woo voters.

It’s weird this series has gone this deep and yet there hasn’t been much hate worked up toward the Stars’ enemy. With Seattle, Stars’ fans mostly hate their speed, efficiency and Gary Bettman’s determination to turn expansion teams into instant Cup contenders. Seattle just won a Game 7 at Colorado, which I thought was a scary proposition when this series began. Beyond that, the Stars have only lost Game 7s, and some remain brutal, even deep in the memory banks. In the first round, road teams won two out of three Game 7’s including the Kraken eliminating the defending champs.
