  • April 7, 2020 Summary the United States Now Has 383,965
    April 7, 2020 Summary The United States now has 383,965 confirmed COVID-19 cases and 12,021 reported related deaths. France’s health minister announced that the country had not reached the peak of its epidemic and was “still in a worsening phase.” France has recorded more than 78,167 cases and 10,328 deaths. British Prime Minister Boris Johnson is receiving oxygen support in an intensive care unit as he battles a worsening coronavirus infection. Turkey has ordered all citizens to wear masks when shopping or visiting crowded public places and announced it will begin delivering masks to every family, free of charge. South Carolina issued a shelter-in-place order, effective Tuesday at 5 PM. It is the 42nd state to issue an order of this kind. Approximately 95 percent of the U.S. population is or will soon be under directives to stay home. New Jersey Governor Murphy signed an executive order closing all state parks, state forests, and county parks in the state, because too many people have failed to observe social distancing guidelines. In New York, the death toll reached a new one-day high, as 731 more people died in the state. The grim tally followed two days in which new deaths dropped below 600. Governor Cuomo said that while the state’s new death toll was upsetting, he was encouraged by data showing that the rate of hospitalizations had fallen for several days, suggesting that the spread of the virus could be plateauing. President Trump granted Governor Cuomo’s request to allow the treatment of COVID-19 patients on the USNS Comfort.

  • Fifty Years of HOPE 2007 Annual Report of Project HOPE
    FIFTY YEARS OF HOPE 2007 Annual Report of Project HOPE For fifty years, “HOPE” has meant much more than a wish or a dream to millions of people—it’s meant a promise realized.

At Project HOPE, we fight communicable diseases liketuberculosis and HIV/AIDS. We train health professionals and build medical facilities in areas devastated by conflict, natural disasters, and poverty. We’ve provided more than $1 billion worth of medicines to thousands of local health care organizations and institutions. And in country after country, we’ve left a legacy of effective and compassionate care. These are the stories and these are the voices of the people of Project HOPE.

  • Major League Baseball (Appendix 1)
    MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL {Appendix 1, to Sports Facility Reports, Volume 18} Research completed as of July 19, 2017 Team: Arizona Diamondbacks Principal Owner: Ken Kendrick Year Established: 1998 Team Website Twitter: @Dbacks Most Recent Purchase Price ($/Mil): $238 (2004) Current Value ($/Mil): $1,150 Percent Change From Last Year: +24% Stadium: Chase Field Date Built: 1998 Facility Cost ($/Mil): $354 Percentage of Stadium Publicly Financed: 75% Facility Financing: The Maricopa County Stadium District provided $238 million for the construction through a 0.25% increase in county sales tax from April 1995 to November 1997. In addition, the Stadium District issued $15 million in bonds that are being paid off with stadium- generated revenue. The remainder was paid through private financing, including a naming-rights deal worth $66 million over thirty years and the Diamondbacks’ investment of $85 million. In 2007, the Maricopa County Stadium District paid off the remaining balance of $15 million on its portion of Chase Field. The payment erased the final debt for the stadium nineteen years earlier than expected. Facility Website Twitter: @MariCo_StadDist UPDATE: In January 2017, the Diamondbacks filed suit against the Maricopa County Stadium District claiming the District had failed to make the necessary capital repairs and improvements to the ballpark. An assessment done by the District concluded that $185 million will be needed for repairs and improvements. The D-backs contend that $135 million of that figure are capital repairs © Copyright 2017, National Sports Law Institute of Marquette University Law School Page 1 that the District is responsible for. The team has said in the past that it would take on those costs in exchange for a reduction of license fee payments and the ability to book the stadium for non- baseball use.
