Halle Berry is walking away from a role as a transgender person, saying she wants to use her “voice to promote better representation on-screen.” Earlier this year, Berry was cast as a transgender man in an upcoming film.Berry faced criticism for taking the role, and for comments she made during an Instagram Live interview while talking about studying for the role, in which she mis-identified the gender of the character, repeatedly calling the character “she”.This week the actor apologized for her remarks and said she is stepping away from the role. 562

HENDERSONVILLE, Tenn. – As COVID-19 cases spike across the country, parents are struggling with whether or not to send their children back to school this fall. There are tools that can help make that decision though, like state-specific modeling data.Courtney Noffsinger of Hendersonville, Tennessee, is among the many parents grappling with this kind of anxiety.The mother of two has spent most of the blistering hot summer social distancing from other family members and friends. She and her husband even recently purchased an RV to go on camping trips, so they wouldn't run the risk of catching COVID-19 from crowded vacation destinations.For Noffsinger, the idea of sending her kids back to school where they’ll be surrounded by hundreds of other students and potentially exposed to the virus is daunting to say the least.“Parenting is already hard, parenting in the middle of a pandemic has been extremely difficult,” Noffsinger said as she watched her daughter scroll through TikTok.Noffsinger’s two kids haven't been to school since March and are both anxious to get back into the classroom. Her 14-year-old son Keagan is entering high school and her 11-year-old daughter Presley is entering middle school. While both children have asked their parents to return to in-person learning, Noffsinger is nervous about sending her kids back to school, especially given her daughter’s underlying asthma.“As their parents, we want to give them what they want, but we’re fearful, especially when the data keeps changing,” she said.As coronavirus cases continue to rise across the country, school districts are being faced with the reality of trying to provide education to the nation’s young people in the midst of the pandemic. While some of the country's largest districts have decided the entire fall semester will be virtual, many other districts are turning to hybrid models where students will attend school at least one or two days of school a week.COVID-19 has created a complex paradox for both parents and educators. They’re weighing the health and safety of students against the prospect of losing valuable learning and social interactions that can't be replicated online.But both parents and teachers are fearful that sending kids back into school environments will give the virus exactly want it wants, crowds of people to spread across.“Parents don’t like to hear me say it, but we will be undertaking a whole series of experiments across this country and we will have to see how those experiments turn out and be prepared to change what we’re doing to keep up with the virus,” said Doctor Williams Schaffner, who serves as a professor of preventive medicine at Vanderbilt University.As COVID-19 cases continue to spike across a large swath of the country, Schaffner says parents need to be vigilant at home when it comes to instilling proper protections like wearing a mask and washing their hands. The more normalized those behaviors are at home, he says, the more likely they’ll be emulated in the classroom. And the less likely it is that the virus will spread.“Model the importance of wearing a mask, practice social distancing. If you do that in your family already, it’ll be easier for your child to understand what’s happening in school,” he said.So, where can parents turn for guidance about whether to send their kids back to school?The Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) has created the COVID-19 Projection Machine, which gives parents an interactive map to work with. As you scroll over each state, you can see current case numbers, hospitalization rates and most importantly, the positivity rate for your state. Health experts say once a state’s positivity rate crosses 5%, parents and school districts should take note.Since the virus is not under control in the United States, Schaffner says parents, students and educators who are returning to in-person learning will need to be flexible as the year progresses.“If there’s an increase in your community and an increase related to the school itself, that school system will have to figure out if there’s a trigger point there, where they call a time out and everyone stays home and the learning becomes virtual,” Schaffner said.As for Noffsinger, she has decided to let both of her children return to school on a hybrid schedule. It’s a decision she’s told them comes with a great deal of responsibility on their part as well.“We’re fearful for their health, but also understand the importance of their education,” she said. 4518

GRANDVIEW, Mo. — It's something many women dream about for years: the dress she'll walk down the aisle in to say "I do."One Kansas City-area bride about to be married is giving hers away to another bride going through a difficult time.Grandview resident Taylor Cooper will marry her fiance, Nick Amor, on Oct. 10. Cooper originally planned to have two wedding dresses, one to wear during her ceremony and the other during her reception.After downsizing her wedding due to the COVID-19 pandemic, she didn't think the wardrobe change would be appropriate and wanted the extra dress to go to a bride who could use some help.Cooper said she recently landed her dream job and feels blessed she has not faced many difficulties because of the pandemic."I just wanted to think of a way to give back to somebody that had been impacted," Cooper said. "I never really thought in my life that I would be in a position that I could gift something like this."She posted in a bridal Facebook group saying she was looking for a bride in need of a dress, and she was quickly connected with a bride in Georgia."She's just such a sweetheart, she literally has texted me every single day since I told her I was going to give it to her, and she's like 'I can't thank you enough,'" Cooper said.Cooper packed up the dress Wednesday to ship it to its new owner."I feel like it's going where it belongs," Cooper said.Cooper's October wedding is one of many happening this fall.Megan Julian, the founder of Julian Events in Kansas City, said she's seeing fewer couples canceling or postponing weddings and moving to smaller weddings instead."What we're finding is couples are surprised by what they can do with their original plans on a smaller scale," Julian said.Julian said many couples are also incorporating virtual aspects to their weddings so they can keep their original guest list.As Cooper prepares to send off her dress, she hopes to inspire others to lend a helping hand if they can."It doesn't really matter how big or small, I just think any nice gesture we can do for each other these days is just so important," Cooper said.This story originally reported by Emma James on kshb.com. 2180

FULTON, Mich. (AP) — A man serving a life sentence in the death of his estranged wife led authorities to where he buried her body in Michigan eight years ago in exchange for an Xbox, according to authorities.Doug Stewart, 29, will also be allowed to participate in some prison programs, the Sturgis Journal reported.On Monday, he took detectives to a wooded area in Kalamazoo County where he had buried Venus Stewart, 32. He'd left two stumps at the site as a landmark."I knew I couldn't forget where she was," he told WWMT-TV.Doug Stewart was living in Virginia when his estranged wife disappeared in April 2010 from her parents' home in Michigan. Venus Stewart had moved after accusing her husband of domestic violence and molesting their daughter, according to police reports.Doug Stewart was convicted of first-degree murder in 2011, based largely on the testimony of Ricky Spencer. Spencer told authorities that he had been persuaded to impersonate Doug Stewart while the man drove to Michigan.Authorities have been visiting with Stewart annually since his sentencing to try and get information about the body's location."The criminal portion has been closed. We just kept at it to help find closure for Venus' family," said Michigan State Police Detective Sgt. Todd Peterson.Stewart had long maintained that he hadn't been involved in the killing, but said things changed when his sister began to reconcile with his wife's family. He said he hopes to make amends with the family."I let them know I didn't want this burden on the family or even selfishly myself. I didn't want it anymore," he said. "It's a horrible pain knowing you're hurting people. Even beyond the crime you committed."Tests are being conducted on the remains, but authorities say they are confident they have found Venus Stewart. 1813
