SINGAPORE: An employer reached out for advice online after finding out that a staff member at a nearby grocery store verbally shamed her domestic helper. “My domestic helper has lived with my family for a very long time (> 10 years). She is recognized by many of the staff since she goes there daily,” she wrote on r/askSingapore, a Reddit forum. “Today, I found out that there is one staff who verbally shamed her and has called her fat multiple times. According to my helper, the staff has even touched her (my helper’s) stomach and asked if she was pregnant!” The employer found the behaviour “incredibly rude and unprofessional,” stating that the staff had no right to make such comments just because her helper was a regular customer. She is also concerned because these comments have significantly impacted her helper’s well-being. “My helper has started to go on a diet and has skipped lunch for 3 days straight,” she wrote. Although she wanted to file a complaint with the store manager, she was unsure who the staff member was, and her helper didn’t want to escalate the situation. “It makes me so angry that the staff is going just to keep working there without any consequences,” she added. “Suggest healthier options that don’t require caloric reduction, such as intermittent fasting.” In the comments section, a few Singaporean Redditors suggested that the employer follow her helper on her next visit to the grocery store to identify the culprit. One Redditor said, “Follow discreetly... and then escalate to a manager.” Another speculated that the staff member’s behaviour might have resulted from insecurity, saying: “... it sounds like someone who is insecure and needs to put down others to elevate herself.” However, one Redditor explained, “There is nothing illegal committed here; you won’t be able to do anything useful other than embarrass the staff and be like a Karen caught on YouTube. If the helper is overweight, she is probably already set to lose weight; suggest healthier options, such as intermittent fasting, that don’t require caloric reduction. This way, she can still eat all three healthy meals in a day, but within an 8-10 hour window, with no change in calorie intake.” In other news, a woman brought a troubling situation to light on social media, alleging that her former domestic helper is being mistreated and exploited by her current employer. In a detailed post on r/singapore on Wednesday (Aug 7), she described the harsh conditions the helper has faced since moving to her new workplace. “Her now employer has not given her any daily meals, she is not allowed to use the kitchen, she must pay for her own medical visits and does gardening, all the time being scolded by an educated, articulate estranged woman,” she wrote.

Mononymous painter Bruce has carved a lucrative niche on social media with his abstract artworks, crafted entirely from the colourful juices of fruits. He has garnered over 37.1K Instagram followers, and is revelling in a wave of Tumblr fame. His works - vivid, contemporary, bold - have been published across two separate books. Bruce, aged 17, is also a parrot. The green-and-blue patched parrotlet is one of ten birds to gain online fame after their owner, Vancouver resident Tina Kirmis, began posting videos and meme-worthy photographs of her feathered friends to Instagram page @follow_the_feather . Among them were videos of Bruce in his ‘berry-eating dome’, a glass structure designed by Kirmis to protect her kitchen walls from the bird’s messy eating habits. Videos show Bruce demolishing his berries with such gusto that bits splatter around the dome, leaving Jackson Pollock-esque paintings on the sheet of paper she leaves underneath. People “just can’t get enough” of the videos, says Kirmis, and Bruce, unbeknownst to him, has become a breakout star. To date, Kirmis has been an adopted mother to 17 different birds. A post shared by Follow the Feathers (@follow_the_feathers) As a volunteer with Vancouver’s GreyHaven Exotic Bird Sanctuary, she says she finds it heartbreaking leaving behind the orphaned creatures - especially when it's the raggedy few. “I’m a sucker for the ones without feathers,” she says, reeling off the ten winged roommates she currently shares her apartment with. There are five budgies, two cockatiels, two parrotlets, and a 50-year-old Amazon parrot, named Sonny. They all fly and they all, much to people’s surprise, says Kirmis, have their own personalities. A budgie named Betty is the feistiest of the lot - “she was so mean, I actually had to wear a jean jacket, a scarf, and safety glasses when I let her out” - although she’s simmered down in recent years. Budgies Betty and Barney are in the middle of a blossoming love affair. Mildred, a parrotlet, is “the boss”, despite her miniature size. Winston, who was adopted as a friend for Willie, prefers human companionship. All he wants to do, says Kirmis, “is snuggle.” Then, of course, there’s Bruce, the social media influencer. Mukbang star. Artist. Philanthropist. (His books, ‘Bruce's Berry Good Art’ and ‘Bruce In His Berry Eating Dome’, raise funds for bird sanctuaries GreyHaven and The Nest.) “It’s kind of like a soap opera, with so many things going on among all the birds,” Kirmis laughs. Kirmis says she began the social media account in jest to showcase the funny side of bird ownership to close friends, but as the fans accumulated, she saw the opportunity to teach possible pet owners a valuable lesson. The majority of Kirmis’ flock are rescues and all of them have pretty significant health issues. Owning a bird, she says, - regardless of how small it may be - is no walk in the park. “I haven’t been on vacation since 2010,” she laughs, “my vet bills last year were literally the same as my rent.” Bruce, who was adopted into the home eight years ago, has heart and liver issues and cataracts in both eyes. Sonny, who is 50 but still surprisingly young for his species, can no longer fly or perch and has eight medications a day. He’s still very much content with life however, assures Kirmis, given his regularly exercised hobbies of playing with toys, eating, and receiving head scratches. “The level of care can be a lot. They’re little family members, so you have to keep them and care for them like the precious little things that they are,” she says. The flock requires food once a day and fresh water multiple times a day. Areas of the house have had to be bird-proofed - the legs of a dining room table, victim to one bird’s incessant pecking, now has to wear socks. Even bedtime, she adds, is no longer her own choice. “They all go to bed at 7:30 p.m., and then I’m kicked out of the living room.” Kirmis’ blames her fondness for fowl on the first ever bird she owned, a budgie, bought in 2003, named Elvis. The “smartest, coolest little bird you could ever meet,” she says it was his loveable, animated character that had encouraged her to continue adding to her ever-growing flock. Twenty-one years and 17 birds later, Kirmis insists that she doesn’t have favourites. All ten are loved equally, artistic ability or not.Whenever I'm asked what I do, I struggle to find a succinct way of saying I'm a journalist, writer, communications consultant and yoga teacher. I used to think all my work had to fit under one heading, but now I embrace my "portfolio career". It might seem unconventional, but I'm not alone in swapping the 9 to 5 for a more flexible and varied approach. But why are so many people choosing portfolio careers? Career consultant Lynda Barry says portfolio careers have become popular with people who want to use a wide range of skills. "People have realised that they have multiple variations of skills and knowledge, and also their interests have expanded," she says. Aoife Barry: journalist, writer, moderator and broadcaster. This variety and autonomy appeals to Aoife Barry, who is a journalist, writer, moderator and broadcaster. She released her first book, Social Capital, in 2023. "I can play to my strengths and do work that I am good at," says Aoife. "I love being my own boss as I don't have to ask anyone for permission - I'm free to do whatever work takes my interest and take time off when I need it." In March 2023, Aoife left The Journal after 12 years. Changes on a global and personal level made her realise it was time to move on. "I'd found the covid era very intense – there was absolutely no 'break' for news journalists globally," explains Aoife. "After experiencing two family bereavements in a very short space of time in 2022 I had a new outlook on my life – I knew it was time to leave hard news and work for myself." In some industries, rates of pay mean it's not realistic to have just one role. "Freelance journalism rates have barely changed since I was last freelance in 2010, which is a big part of why I have a portfolio career," says Aoife. Although it was a big transition, Aoife never looked back. "The Journal had been an amazing place to work and learn, so I was very lucky to immediately start picking up freelance work," she says. "It was...
The IPL 2025 mega auction is just around the corner, set to take place on Sunday in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. Fans are eagerly awaiting to see which players their favorite teams will secure, and which emerging stars will make their mark. With teams retaining a mix of players, the auction dynamics will be exciting, especially as teams look to strengthen their squads ahead of the new season. Each IPL team enters the auction with a budget of Rs 120 crore , although the remaining amount depends on the players they have retained. For example, Punjab Kings have Rs 110 crore left after retaining only two uncapped players, while Rajasthan Royals have Rs 41 crore left after keeping six players. The franchises are required to have a minimum of 18 players in their squads, with the possibility of having up to 25 players . Out of the 577 players available, 204 could go under the hammer in this exciting auction. One of the biggest storylines of the auction is the search for new leaders. Kolkata Knight Riders , Royal Challengers Bangalore , Punjab Kings , and Delhi Capitals are all in need of a new captain, with Lucknow Super Giants potentially looking for leadership as well. This opens the door for star players like Rishabh Pant , KL Rahul , Shreyas Iyer , Jos Buttler , and Aiden Markram to be among the most sought-after names. Additionally, most teams are looking to secure solid wicketkeepers, both for the starting role and as backups. With the demand for keepers high, both Indian and foreign keepers , whether capped or uncapped, are likely to attract significant bids. Bowling strength will be a major priority for teams during the IPL 2025 auction. Many franchises have left spinners out of their retained list, which means experienced bowlers like Yuzvendra Chahal , Ravichandran Ashwin , Krunal Pandya , and Rahul Chahar will be key targets. Teams are also eyeing both Indian and foreign pacers , with uncapped or inexperienced pacers expected to fetch big bids as well. While this is a mega auction, and most teams need to fill 12-15 spots in their squads, the competition will still drive up the price for a few standout players. While it’s unlikely many players will break the Rs 15 crore barrier, three or four players could see bids soar up to Rs 20 crore . Teams like Punjab Kings , Royal Challengers Bangalore , and Gujarat Titans may lead the charge in securing high-profile players. The IPL 2025 mega auction in Jeddah promises to be an exciting event with several surprises in store. Teams are gearing up to build their dream squads, and with players like captains, wicketkeepers, spinners, and pacers in high demand, this auction is set to be one of the most competitive yet. MUST READ : IND vs AUS: Jasprit Bumrah Breaks Kapil Dev’s Record With Exceptional AchievementSaints hope to ride the Rizzi factor back to relevance after their bye weekA masked gunman fatally shot Brian Thompson , the CEO of UnitedHealthcare — one of the nation’s largest health insurers — outside a Manhattan hotel where the company was holding its investor conference on Wednesday, Dec. 4. Police are still searching for the gunman. A day after the shooting, a TikTok went viral claiming UnitedHealthcare posted a LinkedIn job listing for a new CEO within 24 hours of Thompson’s death. The job listing that appears in the video advertises a full-time, remote position based in Minnetonka, Minnesota, with an annual salary range of $300,000 to $450,000. Another viral TikTok claimed the company also posted the same job listing on Indeed. Many commenters on the viral TikToks questioned whether UnitedHealthcare actually posted a job listing for a new CEO directly following the fatal shooting. THE QUESTION Did UnitedHealthcare post a job listing for a new CEO the day after Brian Thompson’s death? THE SOURCES UnitedHealthcare UnitedHealth Group’s 2024 proxy statement Independent VERIFY searches of job openings on UnitedHealthcare’s LinkedIn , Indeed and official careers website Peter Deragon , a managing director at Stanton Chase in Los Angeles Liz Ryan , the CEO and founder of Human Workplace, a career coaching and consulting firm THE ANSWER No, UnitedHealthcare did not post a job listing for a new CEO the day after Brian Thompson’s death. Sign up for the VERIFY Fast Facts newsletter here . WHAT WE FOUND UnitedHealthcare did not post a job listing for a new CEO shortly the day after Brian Thompson was fatally shot in New York on Dec. 4, like two viral TikToks claimed. UnitedHealthcare is the largest subsidiary of the Minnetonka, Minnesota-based UnitedHealth Group. Thompson worked at UnitedHealth Group for 20 years. In April 2021, he was named UnitedHealthcare’s CEO after running the company’s Medicare and retirement business. On Dec. 6, VERIFY searched the most recent job listings posted on UnitedHealthcare’s LinkedIn and Indeed profiles and found that the company had not posted an ad for a new CEO within hours of Thompson’s death. We also found that the job was not listed on UnitedHealth Group’s official careers website . The salary range that appears in the viral TikTok’s fake job listing is also significantly lower than Thompson’s actual salary. In 2023, Thompson’s annual pay package, including salary, bonus and stock options awards, was $10.2 million, making him one of the company’s highest-paid executives, according to UnitedHealth Group’s 2024 proxy statement . Peter Deragon, a managing director at Stanton Chase, a global executive search and leadership consulting firm, says most companies don’t hire their CEOs through LinkedIn, Indeed or other online job boards. “Most C-suite executives don’t ‘hunt’ for a job in the traditional sense of the word. They aren’t found scouring job boards or parsing over the latest employment listings,” Deragon wrote in a blog post from January 2023. “Instead, C-suite professionals willing to shift between employers enter a different process. They position themselves favorably and are ‘courted’ by companies in need of quality leadership,” he added. Liz Ryan, the CEO and founder of Human Workplace, a career coaching and consulting firm, agrees. “Higher-level executives don’t get new jobs by filling out online applications and uploading their resumes,” Ryan wrote in November 2023. “They don’t job hunt that way because they’d never get hired if they did.” VERIFY reached out to UnitedHealthcare for comment but did not hear back by the time of publication.

‘Never Look Away’ Review: Lucy Lawless Directs a Doc About a Singular War Photographer Who Lived Life on Her Own Terms

Number of seats: 4 Seats filled: 0 5.30pm Sinn Féin leader Mary Lou McDonald said her party had delivered an “incredible performance” in the general election. She made clear she wanted to engage with other parties about the “possibilities of government”. Ms McDonald arrived at the count centre in the RDS in a very positive mood ahead of the first official Dublin counts. The first thing I want to say is to acknowledge every single person right across the state who came out to vote for Sinn Féin,” she told reporters in the RDS count centre in Dublin this evening. Mary Lou McDonald (right) and deputy Michelle O'Neill (centre) arrive at the RDS (Photo credit should read: Brian Lawless/PA Wire) “You have given us again a powerful and a strong mandate, and we understand the trust that you have placed in us to make life better for you, and we are determined to do just that. This has been really an incredible performance by all of our candidates, by Sinn Féin across the state. “Over a short number of weeks we have achieved a result that many people a few weeks ago would have thought impossible. So thank you. Thank you to every single person who voted for us. “I said in the course of the campaign that I believe another five years of Fine Gael and Fianna Fáil is bad news for our society, for our communities, for families who are struggling, for our housing crisis, which is deepening, and nobody should miss the record homeless numbers that we saw on election day itself. “We’re now at a really important decision point for Irish society and politics, and we need change. “We intend when the votes are counted and when we know the lie of the land, we will be talking to people about the possibilities of government. “I do not want to see another five years of the kind of chaos, the kind of disregard that we have seen under Fine Gael and Fianna Fail. I think that is a bad outcome for our society.” 5.07pm Independent 4 Change candidate Clare Daly, who polled poorly in Dublin Central, said the fact that Gerry Hutch did well was an anti-establishment vote that could bring a needed focus on the area. “It’s incredibly interesting. It’s not a place I would have wanted to be obviously but I think we’ve seen the massive galvanising of that anti-establishment vote around the candidacy of Gerard Hutch,” she said. “I think all progressive Independents across Dublin probably suffered a little bit in favour of the parties as well, so it left me where I am.” “There’s huge goodwill out there and all the rest but I’m not going to get to see the benefit of all of the massive transfers that we got, but that’s life and I think it has put the world’s attention and the country’s attention on a constituency that has been so badly neglected, and for me that’s a really good thing.” “I hope that attention can be maintained and the people in this wonderful area can get the attention that they so badly deserve and haven’t got,” she added. Asked if she welcomes the fact that Hutch appears to have the level of support he has, Ms Daly said the fact that he is there in the constituency will focus attention on it. “The challenge will be to him to build on that. I do believe the constituency needs that. I don’t see him being a national parliamentarian or a legislator per se, which is part of the job, but if elected he could, if the will was there, really keep a focus on an area that has been left behind and is crying out,” she said. “There are so many people in that community trying their best. It is an incredibly diverse constituency with a lot of division within it.” “Let’s see what happens. Either way the constituency has spoken and by voting for Gerard Hutch in such numbers they’ve sent that signal anyway, and the political establishment should take note,” she added. 1.57pm Social Democrats candidate Gary Gannon has said he is humbled by the vote in Dublin Central. “I'm humbled and also determined to vindicate that over the course of the next five years. We've done a massive amount of work in Dublin Central. In terms of the work that we are doing on the ground, the strength of conviction we have bringing through issues in the Dail that was really starting to come back for us, and we were picking up a lot of momentum in Dublin Central. And I think today you'll see the results of that,” he said. Asked about the effect that Gerry Hutch had being on the ballot paper, Gannon said it was something that “none of us expected”. “He came in and he got a lot of media with this announcement, and that's going to be expected. But I think, for me, it's not just about what happens and who takes the fourth seat. I think it's a reflection of the fact that there's a lot of hurt, there's a huge amount of pain. I mean, that period of austerity in 2011 to 2016 destroyed the fabric of communities, and you're still seeing the tentacles of that now,” he added. “I appreciate what the headlines will be today and tomorrow, but I do encourage everybody to go beyond them and look deeper. Because when people are hurting to the extent that they are in, some of the communities that I represent the length and breadth of Ireland, and you're going to see outcries of that, and it'll manifest in different ways. And I think we're seeing one manifestation of that today,” he said. Asked if he thought the Hutch vote was a protest vote he said he didn’t think so. Soc Dems leader Holly Cairns gave birth to her first baby yesterday as the nation went to the polls, and Gary Gannon was delighted for her. “For me, I just want to say how in awe I am of Holly Cairns. She's not only our leader, she's my friend. She is somebody that has took the reins of this party two exceptional TDs in Catherine Murphy and Roisin Shortall, and she's really brought us on,” he explained. Regarding future plans and possible negotiations for government, he said the next step is to see exactly what's in the boxes. 1.30pm Independent candidate Malachy Steenson has said it looks like Mary Lou McDonald will take the first seat in Dublin Central, followed by Paschal Donohoe, and Gary Gannon for the Social Democrats will take the third seat. The battle for fourth seat could be between Gerry Hutch (Ind), Marie Sherlock (Lab) and Mary Fitzpatrick (FF) in his opinion. He thinks Sherlock may take it on likely transfers. The Monk is in the mix as Malachy Steenson gives his view on the tallies from Dublin Central “It’s a disappointing day for the Nationalist movement but it shows what acres of media coverage can do for a celebrity candidate,” he said in reference to Gerry Hutch’s entry. “The media have to look at the role they have played in this election in excluding people they didn’t agree with. Sadly, the people will pay the price,” he told the Irish Independent. 12pm With practically all the boxes tallied in Dublin Central the news of the day is how well convicted criminal Gerry Hutch has polled. From the outset he was doing well on tally sheets from his own inner city areas like North Strand, and there was an expectation among some of the tally crews that this would change as more boxes were opened. But his vote was strong across the city, and when it comes to the first count he looks destined to come fourth. Transfers in later counts will erode this, but the fact that he has featured so strongly has surprised many. Sinn Fein leader Mary Lou McDonald will top the poll on around 20pc it appears, followed by Fine Gael’s Paschal Donohoe on around 17pc. Gary Gannon of the Social Democrats is polling in third place at 13pc followed by Hutch on 9pc. The fact that Hutch entered the race in the first place will have hurt the ambitions of right wing candidate Malachy Steenson, and Independent 4 Change Clare Daly, who are in ar around the 5pc mark. The Green Party’s Neasa Hourigan’s ambitions to retain her seat appeare to have taken a bruising, with the tallies indicating 6pc of the vote. Transfers will play around with the placings a lot, but this constituency is one to watch today. Read moreDowning throws for 2 TDs, runs for another, Elon tops North Carolina A&T 31-21

During a recent interview with Sports Illustrated , Mercedes Mone revealed what led to her starting a website and digital magazine. Mone launched “Mone Mag” earlier this year and has since announced a new website, MercedesMone.com , to go along with it. She says the idea behind both is to “control the narrative” and get her voice back. Mone said: “This whole last two to three years, the internet, people just wanna create their own stories. Really [the website] was just to control the narrative and to get my voice back. Going on social media every single day and seeing these made up stories... It’s like enough’s enough.” “Oh, things don’t get to me at all anymore (laughs). I learned a long time ago to not let words affect me, because the internet used to affect me so much. Just the littlest things... would ruin my whole day.” “We have no idea who is on the other side of the keyboard. I don’t know if these are bots. I don’t know if it’s someone who looks like you. I don’t know if it’s a witch or rat or whoever, but at the end of the day I don’t care what you have to say about me.” Mone is scheduled to defend her TBS title against Kris Statlander at AEW Full Gear on Saturday. During the interview with Sports Illustrated, Mone also spoke about how she enjoys devising a game plan/moveset geared specifically to her opponent. “I love training for my opponent. I love to try to create different moves and move sets that I can outdo their moves. I made sure I stepped into the ring for Kris Statlander because she is a legit powerhouse in this women’s division. And I definitely won’t take her lightly. My back still hurts from being thrown into the wall.” Mone says she enjoys working with wrestlers who have a size and strength advantage over her. “I become more agile. I become faster... because I have to think about how and what am I gonna do to take down these bigger opponents. How much faster do I have to be? Do I have to climb to the top rope to jump on them? Do I have to take out a knee, an ankle? I have such amazing matches with stronger people and people who are bigger than me because I love doing high flying stuff. I love when I can have a good base to try out these cool new moves that I have imagined in my head.” Tonight will be Mone’s tenth match in AEW. She has a perfect 10-0 record, winning the TBS title in her first match and defending it successfully nine times since. Mone’s full interview with Sports Illustrated is available here .

The Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, Festus Keyamo, on Sunday said there was no way the private plane of privileged Nigerians, including the Founder and Presiding Bishop of Living Faith Bible Church Worldwide, Bishop David Oyedepo, can leave the country directly from their airstrips without first securing clearance from relevant authorities. Keyamo made the clarification when he was featured as a guest on Channels Television’s Politics Today. His statement comes barely two months after members of the House of Representatives called for a revocation of airstrip licences issued to certain individuals and private organisations, citing security reasons. The House also called for an immediate halt to new airstrip licences for individuals and organisations. But Keyamo insisted that there was no way a plane or drone, even if it belongs to the military, can leave or come into the country without first getting a nod from the agency. When asked if the airstrip of Oyedepo also passed through the same due process, Keyamo nodded. Related News Nigeria committed to reducing aviation's carbon footprint - Keyamo Oyedepo’s church airstrip under FG’s management – Keyamo Reps seek to ban private airstrips He said, “Oh yes, absolutely. That’s no problem. They were only concerned about the fact that they thought that somebody can take off from a private airstrip and fly out of Nigeria or fly into Nigeria. It is not possible. “You must land in an international airport first. Then the Customs, immigration and NDLEA will process you before you take off from there to your private airstrip. If you are also flying out, you must land at an international airport. You will go through Customs, immigration and all the normal process before flying out. “So nobody uses an airstrip for any such purpose without seeking clearance. At every point in time, the authorities must approve.” When quizzed on how many airstrips the country is operating at the moment, Keyamo said they are in the range of 40. “We have a number of them, more than 40. For the federal airport, we have 23. The state airport has about eight or nine now. “And then the airstrips are about 40 or thereabouts. I have been there myself,” he stated.
