For those unaware, the Atlanta femcee is rumored to be dating 21 Savage . Apparently, rumors began to swirl that he was cheating on her with the Icy Girl.

"Messy starting the clip like that w all the 21 cheating on Latto with her speculations," one fan wrote under the video of the Mystery Fashion interview. "literally never met him," Saweetie clapped back. "Go get some money & get off the internet BROKEYYYYYY," she added, making sure to show love to Latto in the process.

NoneThere are good and bad news for seniors. The good news is that they have received a cost of living increase in their Social Security benefits , the bad news is that Medicare has also increased its cost. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) has revealed to the public that premiums for its Part B plan will increase by about 6% in 2025. For those who choose to enroll in Part B, the cost will be automatically deducted from their Social Security checks. For those who don not know, Medicare is divided into four parts: When talking about Part B, the majority of retirees choose this option instead of going through Part C , as the cost is a lot lower than going through an insurance company for the majority of Americans. Between Parts A and B most services are covered and retirees can have healthy happy life when combined with Part D for those who take a lot of medications. What is the Medicare Part B premium for 2025? According to a statement released by the CMS on Friday, the standard monthly premium for Medicare Part B enrollees will climb by $10.30, or about 6%, to $185.00 from $174.70 in 2024. The annual deductible for all Medicare Part B beneficiaries will also rise to $257 in 2025 from $240. This is not a surprise for retirees, as, the CMS explains, this increase is due to “projected price changes and assumed utilization increases that are consistent with historical experience.” Even though it may seem like it, prices for Medicare don’t go up every year. In fact, in 2023 the premium for Part B was $164.90, which was over $5 lower than the year before. Medicare Part B monthly premiums are calculated based on the beneficiaries income, which means that those in the wealthier tiers also must pay an additional Income-Related Monthly Adjustment Amount, or IRMAA , which, data from the CMS reflects, impacts about 8% of those with Medicare Part B. In general, married individuals who lived with their spouses at any point during the year and file separate tax returns with a modified adjusted gross income of $106,000 or less are required to pay only the standard Medicare Part B premium of $185 per month. Those whose incomes fall between $106,000 and $394,000 will pay an IRMAA of $406.90 in addition to the $185 premium, totaling $591.90 each month. Seniors with incomes exceeding $394,000 will face an IRMAA of $443.90, bringing their total monthly payment, with the standard premium, to $628.90.

Followed categories will be added to My News. Fluorite and battery hopeful Tivan will begin copper and lithium exploration at its Sandover project’s Dneiper prospect in December after securing agreements with the Central Land Council. The Darwin-headquartered company announced on Thursday it had secured a mineral exploration deed with CLC at Dneiper on behalf of traditional owners and Native Title holders. Located about 100km north of Alice Springs, Tivan’s Sandover project covers about 8000km with 14 tenements including 10 approved exploration licenses. In a statement to the ASX on Thursday, Tivan said the mineral exploration deed sets out how the company will conduct exploration activities at Dneiper to reflect the rights and interests of Native Title Holders, including at cultural heritage and sacred sites. Grant Wilson, executive chair of Tivan, photographed in Central Australia. The deed also provided for employment, training and business opportunities for Native Title holders at Dneiper as well as “a mechanism for economic participation” during the exploration phase. Also on Thursday, Tivan announced it had acquired a “highly prospective” high-grade fluorite prospect in the Sandover which it said would complement its existing Speewah fluorite resource in WA’s Kimberley. Tivan paid Investigator Resources Limited almost $1.5m for the prospect, with Tivan’s executive chairman Grant Wilson taking to social media to talk-up the Sandover’s potential for fluorite extraction. “We looked everywhere for high-grade fluorite and found it in our own backyard,” he tweeted. “Tivan Limited will be the sole supplier from Australia potentially for the next 50 years. A generational transaction and fantastic for the Territory and Japan.” In June, Tivan and Japanese resources servicing company Sumitomo Corporation formed a strategic alliance around the provision of fluorite from the Speewah project. One of Tivan’s Sandover sites. Tivan wants to become the first Australian company to produce commercial grade fluorspar products, which are widely used in manufacturing. Mr Wilson hopes to use earnings from fluorite sales, which was recently added to the Australian Government’s critical minerals list, to in-part bankroll the company’s plans to develop a battery manufacturing plant at Middle Arm sustainable development precinct. The junior player has several irons in the Sandover fire, with high-grade lead and silver prospects also identified at Aileron . “Tivan is delighted to have secured its first formal agreement with the Central Land Council, on behalf of the traditional owners and Native Title Holders, at Sandover,” Mr Wilson said. “The agreement carries additional signal value following our announcement earlier today of the acquisition of the Sandover fluorite project. Many of the traditional owners that we have engaged with throughout this year will be involved as we seek a similar agreement for our new project, considerably reducing the time frames involved. “We will keep shareholders advised as the eagerly awaited commencement of ground-disturbing works at the Sandover Project commences”. Tivan will hold its annual general meeting in Melbourne next week.

Horse and cattle owners see shortage of veterinarians willing to take the reins of large animal care

The FBI is warning iPhone and Android users against texting each other without encryption due to a recent Chinese cyberattack. On Wednesday, deputy national security adviser Anne Neuberger announced that at least eight U.S. telecom companies had been breached by a Chinese hacking operation known as "Salt Typhoon." The operation accessed private text messages and phone conversations involving an undisclosed number of Americans. The hackers are believed to have successfully intercepted the communications of senior government officials and high-profile political figures. However, Neuberger said the government did not think "any classified communications" had been accessed. In response to the attack, the FBI and Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) released guidance aimed at identifying the hackers and preventing future cyberattacks. Since communications between iPhone and Android users are not encrypted by default, agency officials urged Americans to stop sending texts between the two operating systems or use third-party apps with end-to-end encryption. Why Aren't Text Messages End-to-End Encrypted? SMS messaging first emerged in the early 1990s, when there were far fewer concerns surrounding text message security. At this point, altering SMS to include end-to-end encryption would likely be impractical or impossible. However, modern text messages often do not use SMS and are transmitted using other systems, such as Apple 's iMessage and Google Messages. Are iMessage, WhatsApp, Signal and Google Messages Encrypted? Text messages between iPhone users and between Android users do include end-to-end encryption by default. However, messages transmitted between the two systems are not encrypted and could be vulnerable. WhatsApp and Signal both offer end-to-end encryption. NBC News reported on Wednesday that CISA official Jeff Greene and a senior FBI official both urged Americans to use an encrypted app instead of communicating between iPhone and Android devices. "Encryption is your friend, whether it's on text messaging or if you have the capacity to use encrypted voice communication," said Greene. "Even if the adversary is able to intercept the data, if it is encrypted, it will make it impossible." How Can You Tell If Someone Has Encrypted Messages? As messages with end-to-end encryption can only be read using a type of "key" that is only available to the sender and receipt, the content of the messages remains inaccessible when hacked by a third party. Encrypted messages between iPhone users appear in blue. On Android devices, a lock icon under a message or an indication that the message is being sent using RCS (Rich Communication Services) protocol denotes encryption. What Is Salt Typhoon? "Salt Typhoon" is a nickname given to the Chinese hacking operation by Microsoft . The group has also been referred to using the nicknames "FamousSparrow" and "Ghost Emperor." While U.S. intelligence officials have tied the group to the Chinese government, Liu Pengyu, the spokesperson for the Chinese embassy in Washington, denied involvement earlier this week while insisting that "the U.S. needs to stop its own cyberattacks against other countries and refrain from using cyber security to smear and slander China."

Fill in a short questionnaire Source: Legit.ngWEST FARGO — When Happy, a sweet but oblivious-to-danger 9-year-old mare scraped up her back leg once again, owner Alicia Severson was able to call on Casselton Veterinary Service to visit her Gandin, N.D., farm and patch up Happy. But when it comes to a recurring ligament injury Happy sustained while competing in a barrel competition, Severson and many other horse and farm animal owners are finding it more difficult every year to find big animal veterinarians, and especially ones that specialize in certain care. "There is absolutely a shortage," Severson said. For decades, ranchers have been sounding the alarm about a shortage of rural veterinarians and new big animal vets, and especially those who specialize in caring for horses, cows, pigs and sheep. The problem persists despite land grant universities such as North Dakota State University, who often send undergraduates interested in the profession to far-away schools for continuing education. According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture , 500 counties across 46 states reported critical shortages of big animal vets. And while large animal veterinarians have long been a challenge to find in rural areas, where they are most needed, veterinarians who specialize in horses are also waning. That's despite the increasing popularity and availability in North Dakota and Minnesota for younger generations to compete in equine activities. According to an online database, about 43,200 horses call North Dakota home, which is about one horse per 18 people in the state. Leon Glasser, president of the North Dakota Quarter Horse Racing Association, has been breeding, raising and racing horses for more than 40 years, working to improve the quality of racehorses born in North Dakota. Over the years, he's watched the number of veterinarians willing to work with horses dwindle quickly. "Are we short of equine vets in this area? Absolutely, we are," Glasser said. He said a veterinary clinic in New Salem, N.D., will now only provide simple paperwork needed for owners to transport horses across state lines for care and Missouri Valley Vet Clinic in Bismarck has also limited equine services in the same way. Most newer veterinarians prefer to work on dogs and cats exclusively, he said. Severson agreed, noting it is also difficult to find a veterinarian who has experience treating goats, as the Seversons have two goats at their farm along with the horses and a cat. For Happy's ligament issue, of which she's had recurring surgeries and needs sporadic treatment, Severson worked with an equine sports medicine specialist based in the Twin Cities but would travel into western Minnesota. However, that veterinarian recently retired, leaving Severson on the hunt to find another specialist within a few hundred miles of the Red River Valley. "Nothing takes the place of a seasoned veterinarian," Severson said. "Thankfully, Casselton [Veterinary Service] is fabulous when it comes to when my horse is injured. But when it comes to long-term stuff that she's dealing with, it's difficult." Access to education and access to vets Dr. Alexa Weyer at Casselton Veterinary grew up in Snohomish, Wash., a farm town north of Seattle, and graduated with a bachelor's degree in biology from the University of North Dakota before finishing her doctorate in Veterinary Medicine at Auburn University in Alabama. Following graduation, she began working at Casselton Veterinary in early 2021. "There is definitely a shortage of people interested in large animal practice, and we would love to see more interest," Weyer said. To be a veterinarian requires a doctorate degree from a veterinary school or program accredited by the American Veterinary Medical Association and passing the North American Veterinary Licensing Exam, which is an extensive 360-question exam on all species (dogs, cats, horses, cows, goats, pigs, birds, reptiles, rabbits, fish and more) and all aspects of veterinary medicine. Veterinarians can choose to either go straight into general practice after graduation or they can seek further education to become a specialist. To be a veterinarian technician requires a two- or four-year veterinary technology degree, depending on the program. Derine Winning, a veterinarian at Valley Veterinary Hospital in Fargo and public policy adviser for the North Dakota Veterinary Medical Association, said the vast majority — about 70% — of new graduate veterinarians became companion animal practitioners in 2023. Almost 10% became mixed animal practitioners and only 6% became equine practitioners. The data comes from the American Veterinary Medical Association's 2024 Economic State of the Profession Report. "There are a lot of different areas in which veterinarians can become board certified through advanced education and training," Winning said. Animal specialists of any kind can be difficult to find locally, although Winning said the Red River Animal and Emergency Hospital and Referral Center in Fargo does have some specialists in oncology, surgery, internal medicine and emergency and critical care. Casselton Veterinary provides many large animal services from emergency on-call care to posting a doctor and technician for nights and weekends. In addition to their vets traveling to farms, the clinic has a large treatment area with two stocks and stalls for hospitalization and breeding care. The clinic also has several portable imaging tools. Weyer said the trend of vets moving away from rural areas can be seen in the growing need for referrals. "Unfortunately, most referral facilities across the country for large and small animals are in areas of high population density. For large animals, there are even fewer facilities and they tend to be at universities with veterinary schools or in areas of high equine concentration," she said. While the Casselton doctors work with a variety of places for specialty referrals, Sturgis Equine in western South Dakota and the University of Minnesota are probably most used by the clinic. Still, the closest drive is about four hours. Weyer said referrals are typically needed for colic surgery, arthroscopic surgery, advanced imaging or advanced hospitalizations. "In general practice like we are, there are always times to refer. For our clients, it would be nice to have a closer option, but a lot of areas in the country are even farther from referral than we are," Weyer said. Beth Carlson, deputy veterinarian with the North Dakota Department of Agriculture, said rural areas most in need of large animal veterinarians may not attract college graduates with those abilities. "The ratio of large animal veterinarians has shifted quite a bit," Carlson said. "Certainly there are areas of the state where it is difficult to hire veterinarians for a variety of reasons. In some cases it's challenging to hire veterinarians even in urban areas as well." One challenge is the cost of becoming a veterinarian. The USDA offers a program that provides up to $75,000 in veterinary school loan repayment to graduates who agree to work in underserved rural communities a minimum of three years. While some in Congress have recently proposed increasing that amount, it can still be daunting as new veterinarians, on average, face about $190,000 in school debt over the eight years needed to become a veterinarian. According to the American Veterinary Medicine Association, the mean starting salary for a veterinarian working predominantly in the treatment of food animals is about $85,000, but it was more than $100,000 for those who specialize in pet care. The North Dakota Department of Agriculture does work with residents interested in attending veterinary school. Carlson said her office assists with applications for veterinary loan repayment programs. "There are a few different ways that the state and federal government has approached that issue," Carlson said. While NDSU has a veterinarian technician program, there are currently no veterinary schools in North Dakota. In fact, there are only about 30 veterinary schools nationwide. The closest to North Dakota and some of the most renowned veterinary medicine schools are the University of Minnesota, University of Iowa and Kansas State. "NDSU is a great agricultural school and has a great veterinary technician program," Weyer said. "It might be nice to have a veterinary doctorate program at NDSU, but I am not sure that the population is there yet to support one."
