'Cold snap' could hit THIS WEEK as yellow weather warning for rain is issued for parts of UK

These days, when most of us think of Emmerdale’s entrepreneurial maven Gabby Thomas, we’ll typically think of actress Rosie Bentham, who has been delighting audiences as the scheming businesswoman since 2016. However, there was another actress long before Rosie that brought the young daughter of Bernice Blackstock (Samantha Giles) and Ashley Thomas (John Middleton) to life on screen, and that was child actress Annelise Manojlovic who famously played the character from 2001 up until 2015.

As Emmerdale staples Mackenzie Boyd, Charity Dingle and Chloe Harris continue to navigate the aftermath of super soap week’s shocking car accident, fans at home were left flabbergasted this week as Mack aired his worries about Chloe being awoken from her coma. While on the surface, it could have been an endearing gesture had he actually been concerned for Chloe’s wellbeing, Mack’s real fear stemmed from whether or not Chloe remembered he had opted to save Charity rather than the mother of his child, when the car they were travelling in was dangling perilously on a cliff edge.To make matters worse, just before Mack visited Chloe in hospital he had approached Charity and declared his love for her, before tentatively asking if she felt the same.

“Superhero fatigue” can be a loaded phrase that generally raises the hackles of fandom. For one, it’s been weaponized, used, seemingly for years, like a Cassandra in the streets foretelling doom, to no avail—superhero films have ruled the box office for nearly two decades now and have rarely shown signs of slowing down (the pandemic box-office hit, notwithstanding, but everyone took a beating there).

Rick Astley for the top spot all week, but a last-minute surge in sales and streams meant he edged past Astley’s new album ‘Are We There Yet?’ in the last 24 hours before the chart was locked in.Ren’s chart victory is especially significant because ‘Sick Boi’ was released without any label backing, and amid numerous health challenges for the artist. He has been living with various chronic health issues, including Lyme disease, which he documents on the album, and they have also prevented him from playing many shows. Ren told NME last week that he even had to turn down a slot at Glastonbury to focus on his health.Jewkakamansshaowwnwk pic.twitter.com/so4JlDno3j— Ren (@Renmakesmusic) October 20, 2023Speaking to Official Charts, Ren said: “It’s all because of the fans that this has even happened.

press release.Two of the plaintiffs — Micha Rich, a staff accountant at the Georgia Department of Audits and Accounts, and Benjamin Johnson, a media clerk at an elementary school in Bibb County, Georgia — are transgender men who have been diagnosed with gender dysphoria and were advised to pursue social and medical transition to treat their dysphoria.The third plaintiff, referred to by the pseudonym “Jane Doe,” is an employee of the state’s Division of Family and Children’s Services, whose adult transgender son, “John,” gets his insurance coverage through his mother’s plan.In all three instances, the plaintiffs were denied coverage for gender confirmation surgery. Rich and John Doe were also denied coverage for hormone therapy — even though such treatments are offered to non-transgender patients if recommended by their doctors — because they would assist in a gender transition, violating the state employee insurance plan’s prohibitions on coverage for transition-related treatments.As a result of the denials of coverage, all three trans individuals had to forego surgery for a significant period — in Rich’s case, two full years.Rich and Doe ultimately had to pay out of pocket to cover the cost of their surgical and hormonal treatments, with Rich being forced to declare bankruptcy a few months later due to the financial strains placed on him.Johnson was able to have his surgery covered by switching to a non-discriminatory Marketplace plan, which he had to pay for out of his own pocket.Under the terms of the settlement, the members of the State Health Benefit Plan, including state employees and their dependents, will now be able to obtain coverage for gender-affirming treatments, effective immediately.
