"A bankruptcy judge approved Hertz’s plan to raise cash by selling new shares that the car-rental company concedes could end up being worthless. Judge Mary Walrath ruled that Hertz can go ahead with the offering, which the company said could take in as much as $1 billion. Hertz was seeking to take advantage of the unusual rally in its shares to help resolve the massive debts that forced it into bankruptcy. Hertz asked permission for the sale after a nearly tenfold increase in its stock from 56 cents on May 26 to $5.53 on Monday. The company told the court it would warn buyers that “the common stock could ultimately be worthless.” The New York Stock Exchange staff is starting proceedings to delist Hertz’s stock, the company disclosed earlier this week, adding that it has appealed."

"Stocks staged a bold finish on Friday, but it wasn’t enough to rescue markets from their worst weekly loss since March. The three major U.S. indexes rose at least 1 percent to end a tumultuous week marked by new public health worries and dashed hopes for a swift economic recovery. The Dow Jones industrial average bounced all over Friday, rising as much as 837 points before briefly sliding into negative territory. “It was a roller coaster of a week for the stock market,” said Kristina Hooper, chief global market strategist at Invesco. “The week began with stocks continuing their strong rally on excitement over reopening in the U.S.” Boeing, Dow Chemical and Raytheon Technologies paced the Dow upward on Friday. Nine of 11 stock market sectors were positive, with financial and real estate the big winners. “Stocks fell when Fed Chair Jay Powell threw cold water on optimism about a fast recovery for the American economy,” Hooper said. “The sell-off then picked up speed on concerns about a resurgence in infections. By the end of the week stocks rose modestly, sensing buying opportunities and recognizing that the Fed remains extremely accommodative.”
He is right next door:
"The Federal Reserve painted a sober picture of the economy Friday, declaring that the financial system remains under stress because of the coronavirus pandemic and that the path back to steady growth and a strong labor market is unsure. In a semiannual monetary policy report to Congress, its first since the pandemic took hold, the Fed said gross domestic product would probably contract “at a rapid pace” in the second quarter. The worldwide slowdown came after governments locked down their economies to slow the spread of the virus. In the United States, states are slowly lifting stay-at-home orders that have been in place since mid-March. While the central bank has moved to blunt the fallout in financial markets from that shock — buying unlimited quantities of government-backed bonds and rolling out emergency lending programs that go beyond even the response to the 2008 financial crisis — it noted that borrowing conditions remained tight for households with weaker credit histories. President Trump has made it clear that he expects a rapid economic rebound, but....."

"As Mass. economy reopens, more layoffs in hospitality industry" by Anissa Gardizy Globe Correspondent, June 12, 2020
The long-term economic toll of the coronavirus is coming into sharper focus, as job losses mount in Massachusetts hotels and restaurants even as businesses try to reopen.
I will be getting you a front-row seat outside below.
New numbers from the state on Friday show that local hotels continue to reduce their staff. More layoffs and business closures in May and June suggest what many have predicted since early on in the pandemic: A lot of jobs will not be coming back soon, and ongoing losses across the hospitality industry — which employs many people of color — come as the nation reckons with systemic inequalities across race and class.
The Globe once again pushing the race divisions as if no whites work in the "hospitality" industry (maybe they don't, I don't know), and notice how cla$$ is second and gender is nowhere?
It is unclear whether the reported numbers represent furloughs or layoffs, but meanwhile, the future for many restaurants, despite the start of outdoor dining this week, doesn’t look much better. On Friday, Bob Luz, the president and chief executive of the Massachusetts Restaurant Association, provided the state Senate with sobering statistics during a virtual listening session.
He said his group predicts that 3,600 of the state’s 16,000 restaurants will not survive the pandemic, and this comes after the Globe has been pimping the outside dining allowed during the Great Reopening as some sort of panacea.
The trend of recent job reductions across the hospitality industry offers a grim outlook for the economy as businesses begin to reopen. It suggests that some companies are not expecting much business to return anytime soon.
I will never return.
"The industry is not betting on the future of our great city... We are going to get through this, and we want events happening in our city because they generate revenue and income for people,” said Carlos Aramayo, president of Unite Here Local 26, a hospitality workers union.....
WHAT?
They don't believe in the city of the future?
--more--"
The article took a table at the Four Seasons, a five-star property on Boylston Street across from the Boston Public Garden, but after letting go of 192 workers last month it is evident that some early furloughs are likely to turn into permanent layoffs -- as we all knew they would.
Btw, The Globe is keeping a live tracker on layoffs and furloughs in the state with data compiled from news releases, state notices, and other reporting.

On 50th anniversary of Boston Pride, transgender activists return to resistance

"Forced by the pandemic, health care plunges into the digital age; The sudden adoption of telehealth raises questions about what works best and who can be served" by Felice J. Freyer Globe Staff, June 12, 2020
This new kind of medicine — called telehealth — swept across the normally change-resistant world of health care with astonishing speed, and it is transforming doctor-patient interactions in ways that will continue to evolve.
Making guys like Bill Gates richer and adding a critical piece to the global surveillance grid. No longer will the conversation with your doctor be completely confidential, it will now involve a third entity -- technology -- that leaves an electronic data trail that can be mined.
Even as other aspects of life went digital, “the health care system lagged behind for years and years," said Barbra Rabson, president and CEO of Massachusetts Health Quality Partners. "All it took was a pandemic and the system changed overnight.”
Yeah, ALL IT TOOK was the PANIC to GIVE WHAT WAS IN THE WORKS and PART of the TECHNOLOGICAL DYSTOPIA.
CUI BONO?
If you can't see that we have all been had by another big lie from government and ma$$ media, you don't want to see it. That would be the same media that lied us into mass-murdering wars that have delivered stacks and stacks of brown and black corpses. BLM never cared a wit about those, so fuck them!
Medical practices are gradually opening for more in-person care, but it’s clear telehealth is here to stay. A new phrase has already entered the health care lexicon to describe a skill required for virtual doctoring: “webside manner.”
Click off or hang up, patient. That is not a doctor practicing medicine, that is someone getting paid for a fucking phone call.
By all accounts so far, most patients and clinicians readily adapted to the technology and appreciate its convenience. Telehealth seems especially well-suited to mental health therapy, but worries and questions remain. It’s not clear which other types of visits, and which patients, are most amenable to telehealth, or whether something essential is lost when a doctor cannot physically examine a patient, and will telehealth exacerbate inequities by leaving behind people who don’t have good Internet access?
You know what is unhealthy and mentally ill?
Continuing to read this agenda-pushing garbage from the Bo$ton Globe?
It stinks like a landfill!
The data show that a dramatic shift has already occurred. Before the pandemic, nearly all doctor visits took place in person. Dr. Joseph C. Kvedar, a Harvard dermatologist and president of the American Telemedicine Association, has spent nearly three decades promoting telehealth to reluctant physicians. He watched in amazement as it took over in two weeks — and without major strife. “So far no one’s pointed to anything that went wrong,” Kvedar said. “It’s been life-saving. If we had this pandemic 25 years ago, it would have been a much more horrific outcome.”
Kvedar is f**king crazy! He is a $elf-$erving piece of $hit pushing the agenda with absolutely no data or facts.
How many cancers and other conditions are going undiagnosed during the COVID $CAMDEMIC!
How many suicides due to lockdown?
How many other unhealthy mental ramifications from this psychopathic control freak exercise that is here to stay?
Telehealth was able to take off so quickly because state and federal regulators issued emergency rules that removed the key obstacles.
Meaning your health privacy has zoomed down the drain.
While virtual visits clearly make sense for psychotherapy, they obviously can’t work for things like Pap smears and vaccinations, but for many services, it’s not always clear when doctor and patient need to be in the same room.
They will soon be making house calls to vaccinate your kids, and if you don't agree you shall be sent to a COVID reeducation camp if you live in Colorado (that's part of the lockdown: repurpose the colleges, malls, and sports arenas. Fences can be put up around the college perimeter in a matter of days and the sports arenas and malls already have metal gates on spaces).
“Patients are really grateful that this is an option. Sometimes the technology is a little rough around the edges, but it’s helping them stay safely at home,” said Rabson.
It's helping me avoid the clinics and hospital. I would rather die of undiagnosed cancer or a heart attack than ever access the health $y$tem again. What COVID has made clear is the PHARMAceutical indu$try controls the US health $y$tem. There is no denying it. Time to go all natural and herbal.
Lindsay Rosenfeld, whose 8-year-old twins were born prematurely and have health problems, was relieved that she wouldn’t have to take them into doctor’s offices where they would risk infection. Remote visits also make it easier for her husband to participate without leaving work, but the 42-year-old Milton resident sees limitations. A recent checkup for the twins by video seemed equally effective as an in-person visit, but the children missed out on hearing and vision assessments. “Sometimes you do have to go in,” she said.
I have canceled all my medical appointments for the foreseeable future (meaning eternity).
It’s surprising, though, how much care can happen online.
But?
Still, telehealth has downsides. Some clinicians complain that video visits are “too artificial,” and the video quality is often too poor to reveal nonverbal cues, Rabson said.
Still, same f**king thing!
I'm SICK of $hit QUALIFIERS in my pre$$!
Fucking half-truth liars!
Some patients, too, feel viscerally that they need to be there in person. “The laying on of hands really did matter to people,” said Dr. Huy Nguyen, a pediatrician and chief medical officer at DotHouse Health, a community health center in Dorchester, and there’s a flip side to the convenience issue: For some people, particularly isolated elderly people, the journey to the doctor’s office may be their only opportunity to interact with others.
Get the f**k away from me, you threat!!
“This artificial environment we have in the pandemic will not be sustainable,” said Kvedar, of the American Telemedicine Association. He predicted that eventually 20 percent to 30 percent of patient visits will be virtual. “We will have this channel,” he said, “but it won’t be as wide open.”
Good.
Then maybe the in$urance indu$try will collapse, the global poisoners and their collaborators hung, and then doctors can get back to practicing the Hippocratic Oath and not the Hypocritic Oath they $wear now.

"Seventeen years after the US-led invasion of Iraq, the two countries began talks on Thursday focus on the future of their strategic relationship. Thorniest among them is the question of foreign troop presence: Iraq’s parliament has urged the US-led coalition to leave, and Prime Minister Mustafa al-Kadhimi is under pressure to satisfy that demand without risking security gaps that Islamic State fighters might exploit. The United States has some 5,200 troops stationed in Iraq as part of an international coalition fighting the Islamic State. The militant group still poses a threat in Iraq, although one that is much reduced from the period between 2014 and 2017 when it was building and then fighting for a sweeping landmass it described as its ‘‘caliphate.’’ The talks cap a period in which bilateral relations have been steadily improving."

"A statue honoring police officers killed in the line of duty was removed from a park in Virginia’s capital city Thursday morning after it was covered in red paint. The statue was damaged during ongoing protests sparked by the death of George Floyd, a handcuffed Black man who died two weeks ago after a white Minneapolis police officer pressed his knee on his neck for more than eight minutes as he pleaded for air. The temporary removal comes as protesters in Richmond and around the country have called for the removal of monuments many say are symbols of racism. On Wednesday, protesters toppled a statue of Confederate President Jefferson Davis that sits along Monument Avenue, about a week after Governor Ralph Northam ordered a statue honoring Confederate General Robert E. Lee be taken down from its position on the same street. The police memorial was set to be restored and “returned to public display,’’ WRIC-TV quoted a spokesman for Mayor Levar Stoney as saying....."

Tensions were high in Orange County earlier in the week. The county’s health officer abruptly resigned Tuesday after weeks of harsh attacks, and even a death threat, over her mask requirements. Some complained that the virus was a “hoax,” that they have been discriminated against since they can’t go into a store without a mask and that the science behind wearing these masks was not correct and contradictory to advice from medical experts....."

The staging and attendance of events should be in accordance with what local health officials are advising, based on how much the virus is spreading in a community, he added, but there are notable omissions. There’s nothing about precautions to take before going to church, no guidance about dating and sex, and no explicit advice on a topic that some doctors say they get asked all the time: Is it OK to take the kids to visit grandparents?

"More than two dozen international aid organizations have told the US government they are “increasingly alarmed” that “little to no US humanitarian assistance has reached those on the front lines” of the coronavirus pandemic, as the number of cases picks up speed in some of the world’s most fragile regions. The letter obtained by the Associated Press and signed by groups including Save the Children, Mercy Corps, and World Vision says that “in spite of months of promising conversations with USAID field staff, few organizations have received an executed award for COVID-19 humanitarian assistance.” It calls the delays “devastating” and says the window is closing for the US to help mitigate the worst impacts of the pandemic around the world. The letter to US Agency for International Development acting administrator John Barsa is dated June 4 — the same day that other USAID officials were touting the US government’s “global leadership” in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic. “To date, we have committed more than $1 billion to benefit the global COVID response,” Kenneth Staley, the leader of the USAID COVID-19 task force, told reporters covering Africa, but much of that aid has been tied up in “uncharacteristic delays” nearly three months after the passage of the Coronavirus Preparedness and Response Supplemental Appropriations Act, the letter from aid groups says. “The long delays in COVID-19 awards — and as a result, US response to a dynamic global emergency — stands in stark contrast to our experience in crises where (the Office of US Foreign Disaster Assistance) is known to turn around funding in a matter of weeks, if not days,” the letter says."

"Just a day after Beijing announced the first new coronavirus infection in almost two months, officials in the capital city said Friday that two more cases have been reported, leading authorities to close multiple meat markets and delay plans to reopen schools next week. The two men who were infected had recently visited the markets, according to state media, but it is unclear how they were exposed to the virus. The men said they did not have contact with travelers in the past two weeks, state media said. The back-to-back reports of new infections have raised concerns about a potential second wave of the coronavirus, echoing the fears of other national governments that have begun to ease lockdown measures even as the virus has not fully subsided. “Until there is final victory in epidemic prevention and control, it is necessary to maintain wartime status at all times and resolutely eliminate the possibility of an epidemic rebound,” Beijing government spokesperson Xu Hejian said at a Friday news conference, according to CBS News."
Yes, we must wait for the FINAL VICTORY -- which will be when there is a vaccine for the entire world.
Of course, the rates have not been rising in the eastern European nations like Austria.
"Premier Giuseppe Conte has been questioned by prosecutors investigating the lack of a lockdown of two towns in Lombardy’s Bergamo province at the start of Italy’s coronavirus outbreak. Doctors and virologists have said the two-week delay in quarantining Alzano and Nembro allowed the virus to spread in Bergamo, which saw a 571 percent increase in excess deaths in March compared to the average of the last five years. Conte told La Stampa daily that he acted based on “science and conscience.”

Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro has rejected ordering quarantines, and many Brazilians have criticized him for opposing city and state measures such as lockdowns, social distancing, and other steps meant to curb the spread of the coronavirus."

"Tear down statue of Lincoln towering over kneeling slave, petition says; Activist says image of the 16th president towering over kneeling slave is disturbing" by Meghan E. Irons Globe Staff, June 12, 2020
They don't even understand their own history!
As a young Black man growing up in Dorchester, Tory Bullock would recoil every time he walked past the statue. He didn’t see a liberator. He saw a white man standing over a less powerful Black human.
Tourists have stopped by to snap pictures of the memorial. Office workers, schoolchildren, and joggers pass it while going about their day, giving it little notice, but the image has tormented Bullock and his Black friends, who had, for the most part, harbored their dismay in silence. “All I remember is what I felt, and what I felt was ‘Wow, that’s a Black dude with a white dude standing over him like he’s a coffee table,” said Bullock, “and he just made me feel like something’s wrong.”
Bullock, who lives in Mission Hill, is no stranger to controversial topics. His videos — passionate, raw, and powerful — take on gentrification, racism, and police brutality. Some have gone viral, including one he did after the police killing of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Mo., that sparked mass protests six years ago.
OMG, he is a PROFESSIONAL AGITATOR being PROMOTED by the Globe!
He spent much of the week scrolling through his news feed and reading about controversial statues tumbling down or targeted for removal, including Confederate monuments. Those structures have reemerged as a national flashpoint since George Floyd died as a white Minneapolis officer pressed a knee on his neck for almost nine minutes.
Then Bullock read this past week about the beheading of a Christopher Columbus statue in the North End and its removal Thursday by a city crew.
As Bullock read about the Columbus statue’s removal, he drove to the Lincoln monument site and hit the record button.....

"Bail was set at $10,000 for a 15-year-old boy who allegedly joined in torching a Boston police cruiser after a day of peaceful protests in the city on May 31, officials announced. The Framingham teenager was arraigned for arson of a motor vehicle in Boston Juvenile Court on Friday, according to a statement from Suffolk County District Attorney Rachael Rollins. An additional charge of inciting a riot will be heard at the next court date on June 23, prosecutors said. Bail was set by Judge Peter Coyne, officials said. If the boy’s family posts bail, he will have to wear a GPS monitor and remain outside of Boston, among other conditions. “I will always act to hold individuals accountable for acts of violence, and that obviously includes acts of violence against members of law enforcement,” Rollins said. “The individuals accused of violence and looting must not overshadow the actions of tens of thousands of peaceful protesters who took to the streets of our city to show their hurt and outrage over the murder of George Floyd.” Boston police, Boston fire investigators, the Suffolk County district attorney’s office, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the US attorney for the District of Massachusetts, and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives are investigating the arson, officials said. “At my direction, this office has taken every step to hold those accountable for their violent and destructive conduct on May 31 and the days that followed,” Rollins said. Rollins offered sympathy to the thousands who protested peacefully that day. People have demonstrated in recent days around the country -- and the world -- against police violence following the deaths of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, and other Black Americans. “I stand with those protestors in demanding justice and accountability for Mr. Floyd," she said."
She does not stand with the police with which she works as she excuses the juvenile delinquent who torched a police car during "peaceful protests!"
"Several Framingham High School student organizations are banding together to host a Student Justice Protest against racial inequality and police brutality in the wake of George Floyd’s death. The rally is scheduled to take place Saturday on the Framingham Centre Common from 4:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. and will feature speakers from the high school’s Black Student Union, the Drama Company and some public officials. The protest will end with a moment of silence for Floyd and “all victims of police brutality,” the organizers said on their Instagram page. Organizers plan to take extra precautions to protect participants against COVID-19. Everyone must wear a mask, and will be given six-foot poles to ensure everyone maintains social distancing. “Since I’m a student activist I just felt like I should be doing more," said Mira Donaldson, 19, president of the Black Student Union. "My people are literally dying in the streets and it’s heartbreaking and touches me personally as a black woman. Donaldson said she has been receiving positive responses from the community since the protest was announced and expects over 100 to attend.
Does that mean whitey, too, and where can I get one of those poles to keep everyone away?
Btw, of what are they made?
I sure hope they can't be turned into a weapon of mass destruction.
Donaldson is one of the lead organizers for Saturday’s protest. Her immune system is suppressed, so she never felt safe enough to join other protests held in response to Floyd’s death. Donaldson, who graduated in May from Framingham High School, said, "So, this protest will be able to help people who don’t feel safe going to the other ones that are bigger. They can come and feel safe and also contribute to the bigger movement.” Donaldson said she also wanted to bring awareness to her community which is predominantly white. Earlier in the year, one of her classmates posted a photo to social media with the caption “I hate N words, with the hard R,” she said. “It was very hard to see that and there was barely any addressing of that situation,” Donaldson said. “Sometimes you just feel like these situations are swept under the rug." There will be a designated time for attendees to hold signs. “Our goal is to provide the city an opportunity to formally unite during this national time of injustice,” the organizers said in a post to Instagram. “We also want to provide an opportunity for student leaders to use their voices alongside successful city officials to display the strength of our community.” Floyd, 46, a Black man, was killed last month by a white police officer in Minneapolis who knelt on his neck for nearly 9 minutes. Derek Chauvin, who was fired from the department, is charged with his murder."
They will also be calling for the freeing of the 15-year-old arsonist as well as suing the city (to which I say good! Pay up, rich whitey! That is how they intend to redistribute wealth you cucked a$$holes).
"The body of a 62-year-old man was found in the stairwell of a building on the Bedford VA campus on Friday, five weeks after he was reported missing, authorities said.

The circumstances of the man’s death are under investigation, prosecutors said. No further information was released. Kat Bailey, a spokeswoman for the Bedford VA Medical Center, said the hospital “does not have jurisdiction” on the building where the body was found. She referred questions to Caritas Communities, the nonprofit that provides housing for veterans on the campus. A spokeswoman for Caritas could not be reached for comment Friday night. According to its website, Caritas operates the Bedford Veterans Quarters, a 60-unit building for homeless veterans."

"A Randolph man was arrested Thursday on gun charges after he went to the police station to pick up his car, which had been towed following a fireworks confiscation last weekend, police said. Darrell Brown, 31, was arrested after he went to the Mattapan station around 3:15 p.m., Boston police said in a statement. Brown faces charges of unlawful possession of a firearm and unlawful possession of ammunition. He will appear in Dorchester District Court. The charges stem from an incident on June 6 in which officers allegedly found a loaded gun on top of fireworks in Brown’s car after he fled the area on foot. Officers responded to a call for fireworks on Astoria Street in Mattapan, an area where they had previously received numerous fireworks complaints. Upon arrival, officers noticed two cars and “could clearly see large quantities of illegal fireworks in plain view inside of them,” police said. Officers told one of the car’s owners, who was at the scene, that fireworks are illegal in the state and that they would be seized. Officers then allegedly discovered a fully loaded .380-caliber Ruger LCP handgun, equipped with a laser sight and an extended magazine, on Wesley Pereira, 25, of Dorchester. Pereira was arrested for unlawful possession of a firearm, unlawful possession of ammunition, and carrying a loaded firearm, police said. He was expected to be arraigned in Dorchester District Court. In the other car, which was unattended, they allegedly found a loaded .380-caliber Ruger handgun on top of the fireworks in the rear seat. That gun allegedly belonged to Brown."
The gun couldn't possibly have been planted by police, could it?
Here is a pie in your face:
"Table Talk donates 10,000th pie to UMass Memorial health care workers" by Caroline Enos Globe Correspondent, June 11, 2020
UMass Memorial Medical Center in Worcester marked a sweet milestone Thursday, when Table Talk Pies donated its 10,000 pie to health care workers since the start of the state’s Covid-19 crisis in March.
A "sweet milestone" amidst the alleged CARNAGE of COVID?
This is SO GODDAMN OFFENSIVE it makes one VOMIT!
The city’s hometown pie maker dropped off 256 individual-sized pies, including blueberry, chocolate eclair, lemon and other flavors, boosting the total to a whopping 10,000 flaky crust pies.
“It’s our way of saying thank you,” said Table Talk President Harry Kokkinis, who met with UMass Memorial officials outside the hospital as the pies arrived Thursday morning. “These health care workers have been so important to us and to the whole community.”
This is another way of buying off their silence and discouraging them from blowing the whistle on this fraud while supporting the narrative as the forced famine comes to AmeriKa.
Not making any more dance videos or poses for Last Supper portraits now?
Giving the pies to the workers in person was especially moving for Kokkinis, whose uncle was one of the hundreds of COVID-19 patients UMass Memorial has treated.
“He passed away from COVID-19, but I know they did everything humanly possible to keep him alive," said Kokkinis, whose grandfather founded Table Talk in Worcester in 1924. "Today I got to thank them for that.”
Dr. Eric Dickson, president and CEO of UMass Memorial Health Care, said the hospital has been hit hard by the pandemic.
The hospital has received food from Chick-fil-A, drinks from Polar Seltzer, and other donations since the start of the pandemic, but Dickson said Table Talk pies are some of the staff’s favorite foods to pick up on their way into work.
They accepted food from the homophobic Chick-fil-A?
“Nothing says ‘I love you’ like a Table Talk pie,” he said.....
Oh, PUKE!
--more--"
I'll pass on the pie. I've had them before, and they suck.
