AKRON, Ohio — More than 200 Ellet High School students received their diplomas Friday night at Akron Civic Theatre in Ohio. Among them was an 87-year-old man getting an honorary diploma, 70 years after he left school for the military.Floyd Edward Hoskins, known to friends and family members as Ed, left Ellet High School in 1949 at age 17 to join the military.“Three years, three months, 19 days,” Hoskins said of his total time in the Army. During that time, he said, he was supposed to serve in Korea but was sent to Alaska for two years instead.When he came home, Hoskins said he initially had trouble finding a job but eventually landed one at Goodyear Tire and Rubber, where he worked for “44 years, four months, three weeks and one day.”Hoskins moved to Hawaii two years ago to live with one of his sons and his daughter-in-law. His daughter-in-law, Cynthia Allen Hoskins, began doing some research into veterans’ benefits.“We are retired military, my husband and I,” Cynthia Allen Hoskins said. “And we were doing some research as far as our kids and their benefits in order to continue their college education.”She ran across information about the benefits the State of Ohio provides to veterans, where she learned her father-in-law might be eligible to receive his high school diploma. She inquired with his former school and found out he was eligible.“His reaction was kind of, ‘Ah, I don’t know if I really want to do this. It’s just a piece of paper,’ ” Cynthia Allen Hoskins said. “But after we explained to him, ‘Dad, you know, you really pushed education on us, we push it onto the grandkids. So why not?’ You know, if this is something that you deserve, go for it.”She said her father-in-law eventually came around to the idea.On Friday, when asked if he ever thought this day would come, Ed Hoskins said, “No, never.”“It’s an honor, but it’s scary,” he said, tearing up. “I’m not used to being in the limelight.”Decades older than his fellow graduates, Ed Hoskins received his diploma first, to loud applause. 2039

A measure of hiring by U.S. companies has fallen to a seven-year low and fewer employers are raising pay, a business survey has found.Just one-fifth of the economists surveyed by the National Association for Business Economics said their companies have hired additional workers in the past three months. That is down from one-third in July. Job totals were unchanged at 69% of companies, up from 57% in July. A broad measure of job gains in the survey fell to its lowest level since October 2012.The hiring slowdown comes as more businesses are reporting slower growth of sales and profits. Business economists also expect the economy’s growth to slow in the coming year, partly because tariffs have raised prices and cut into sales for many firms.“The U.S. economy appears to be slowing, and respondents expect still slower growth over the next 12 months,” said Constance Hunter, NABE president and chief economist at the accounting firm KPMG.Perhaps because of concerns over a weakening economy, businesses are less likely to offer higher pay, even with unemployment at a 50-year low. Just one-third of economists said their firms had lifted pay in the past three months, down from more than half a year ago.Companies are also cutting back on their investments in machinery, computers, and other equipment. The proportion of firms increasing their spending on such goods is at its lowest level in five years, the survey found.Sales are also growing more slowly. Just 39% of economists said they rose in the past three months, down from 61% a year earlier. And only 38% said they expect sales to rise in the next three months, also down from 61% a year ago.Many business economists blamed President Trump’s tariffs on steel, aluminum, and on most imports from China for worsening business conditions. Thirty-five percent said the duties have hurt their companies, while just 7% said they had a positive effect.Of those who said tariffs had impacted their companies, 19% said they had lowered their sales and 30% said the duties pushed up costs.That has cut into profits for many firms. Just 19% of economists said their companies’ profit margins have risen in the past three months, barely half the 37% who reported greater profits a year earlier.Two-thirds of the economists surveyed now forecast that the economy will grow just 1.1% to 2% from the third quarter of 2019 through the third quarter of 2020. A year ago, they were more bullish: Nearly three-quarters forecast growth of 2.1% to 3% from the third quarter of 2018 through the third quarter of 2019.The NABE surveyed 101 economists at companies and trade associations from Sept. 26 through Oct. 14. 2672
A possible government plan to send migrants who are in federal custody to South Florida sparked concern from local officials this week, and one mayor offered a proposal of his own."Bring them to the Trump hotels and ask the President to open his heart and home as well," Broward County Mayor Mark Bogen said.Bogen said in a statement that he and other local officials learned this week from US Customs and Border Protection of a plan to release hundreds of migrants weekly into the area."This is a humanitarian crisis. We will do everything possible to help these people," Bogen said. "If the President will not provide us with financial assistance to house and feed these people, he will be creating a homeless encampment."Neighboring Palm Beach County -- home to Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort -- also received a similar notification from CBP, officials there said.The sheriff said the agency had recently informed the county of a plan to transport 135 migrants from El Paso, Texas, to Broward and Palm Beach counties twice a week."The President wants to send his problems to Palm Beach County. And that's not fair," Palm Beach County Mayor Mack Bernard told CNN on Friday.CBP: 'We are not flying anyone to Florida'On Friday, a CBP official said there were no plans to send migrants to Florida "immediately," adding that the agency has been in "preliminary" conversations with a number of localities across the country about "contingency plans" to move groups of recently apprehended immigrant families."We are not flying anyone to Florida. We were in preliminary planning stages across the nation ... for having contingency plans because we are overcapacity and for our safety and the safety of those that we are charged with caring for, we can't keep them in these facilities," the CBP official said of intake facilities along the US-Mexico border."This is an emergency of 'get them out of our facilities as quickly as we can and as safely as we can.' This is an emergency. The entire system is overwhelmed."The official said record number of family units and unaccompanied minors crossing the border has created "a serious backlog" at intake facilities and forced immigration authorities to move the migrants to other areas for processing before release.CBP last week began moving immigrants by bus and plane to other border communities along the US-Mexico border "to leverage available capacity for processing and holding," CBP said.Since May 10, CBP has been bussing families from the Rio Grande Valley to Laredo, Texas, the official said, as well as flying migrants on planes contracted from Immigrations and Customs Enforcement to Del Rio, Texas, and San Diego.Everyone that is being moved by bus or plane is part of a family unit, and has been initially processed for criminal connections, and given a medical assessment to make sure they are medically cleared to fly, according to the official.The CBP official said authorities were looking at locations across the country where CBP has temporary detention facilities and adequate computer systems to be able to process the immigrants upon arrival. Those locations are primarily along the northern and coastal border, the official said.The official denied that the contingency plans being laid were targeting sanctuary cities, which would be in line with President Trump's stated intention of sending immigrants to sanctuary cities."All we are looking at right now is where we have the capacity and the bandwidth for the computer systems, and the computer systems to be able to do the processing," the official said.Lawmakers trade blameSeveral lawmakers who represent Florida in Congress said details were in short supply -- though they traded blame over who was responsible for the situation.Republican Sen. Marco Rubio said he'd sent a list of questions over the matter to Acting Homeland Security Secretary Kevin McAleenan.Republican Sen. Rick Scott's office said Democrats were to blame for refusing to fix a crisis at the border, adding that Scott is seeking additional information from local sheriffs, the White House and the Department of Homeland Security.Democratic Rep. Ted Deutch slammed what he said was a "stunning amount of confusion" over the administration's immigration policy."Our diverse community treats immigrants with dignity and respect; the Administration should do the same," he said in a statement. "That starts with a thoughtful plan rather than a rash decision apparently made by some in the Administration without any consultation with the rest of the government."Earlier this month, 4582
About 1 out of 5 high school students in the U.S. say they vaped marijuana in the past year, and its popularity has been booming faster than nicotine vaping, according to a report released Wednesday.“The speed at which kids are taking up this behavior is very worrisome,” said Dr. Nora Volkow of the National Institute on Drug Abuse, the federal agency that pays for the large annual teen survey.Electronic cigarettes and other battery-powered vaping devices mostly heat a liquid containing nicotine into a vapor that’s inhaled, In recent years, they have been increasingly used to vaporize THC, the chemical that gives pot its high.The University of Michigan survey asks students in grades 8, 10 and 12 across the country about smoking, drinking and drugs. About two-thirds of this year’s 42,000 participants were asked about vaping marijuana.Vaping nicotine is still more popular: about 1 in 4 high schoolers said they had done it at least once in the previous year. But vaping marijuana grew more quickly: 1 in 5 high schoolers had done it at least once the year before.About 1 in 7 high school seniors this year were considered current users of marijuana vaping — they had vaped in the month before they took the survey. That’s almost doubled from 1 in 13 the year before.Overall, marijuana use — in all its forms — is holding steady. It’s not clear if students are switching to vaping or continuing to use other forms as well, said Richard Miech, who oversees the survey.Daily marijuana use rose in both middle school and high school kids in 2019, and “if you want to be a daily marijuana user, vaping makes it easier,” he said.It’s odorless and slips easily into a pocket. “You can just kind of graze on that all day,” he said.The survey is in the Journal of the American Medical Association, which also published results of a different survey in 2018 that showed an increase in marijuana vaping among middle and high school students.Both have limitations: the surveys rely on what kids say, and it does not include teens who are not in school. Federal and state laws ban minors from using marijuana recreationally, and prohibits sale of vaping products to kidsThe Michigan survey was conducted earlier this year, before reports of a surge in cases of vaping-related lung damage, mostly in teens and young adults who used black-market THC products.Volkow said the illnesses “may scare some teenagers away” from vaping marijuana.The survey also found most other forms of teen drug use are flat or declining, including alcohol, ecstasy, heroin, cocaine, and meth. An exception was LSD, which has been increasing in 10th and 12th graders. About 3.6% of high school seniors said they’d dropped acid in the previous year.___The Associated Press Health and Science Department receives 2797
