For students whose summer plans fell through, organizations across the country are working to make sure internships are still a possibility.The DeBruce Foundation is teaming up with partners to provide students a virtual head start in their careers.The national nonprofit foundation, based in Kansas City, Missouri, works to expand pathways to economic growth and opportunity. One of those ways is student success and internships.However, this summer, they had to pivot their summer plans due to COVID-19.According to Glassdoor, internship hiring fell 39 percent in April 2020 compared to the same time last year."We’re building talent and sometimes it’s talent for today, but sometimes it’s talent for tomorrow," The DeBruce Foundation Senior Director, Robin Smith said. "And so our work pipeline suffers if we don’t have those ways for people to gain work relevant skill. And so it functions on that level and then individuals' level of really connecting talent and opportunity."That's why the foundation is seeking out opportunities, not only to hire their own interns but partnering with area organizations that help students get internships."There are different partners that we work with that they wanted to test and try virtual internships," Smith said. "We were able to provide financial support for them and also different kinds of tools that we use."Hire KC, Startland Internship and Urban Leadership Fellowship are the partners the Foundation is working with and providing funding to allow more students the opportunity for a virtual internship.Alex Oleson, a rising senior at St. Louis University, is The DeBruce Foundation for this summer and says it's been a fairly smooth transition going into a virtual internship after completing online learning for the last three months."In some instances, it does give you a bit more flexibility," Oleson said. "It’s kind of like working from home but I like it and I like that there’s definitely an aspect of dependability."Oleson is studying political science with a minor in economics and urban poverty studies. He said he's been able to delve into various areas with the foundation, including strategic planning, media, marketing and communications and product development, where he's able to provide his insight.The foundation also has a product development lab. Some of their career corps. students participate in a paid, virtual experience to help the foundation with its professional development tools.This story was originally reported by Rae Daniel on kshb.com. 2532

Forget about drones and armies of people driving Amazon trucks. One big Wall Street firm thinks Amazon's plan to build up its air freight delivery service may be what really winds up hurting UPS and FedEx.Morgan Stanley analyst Ravi Shanker said in a report Tuesday that both delivery giants could lose 10% of their revenue to Amazon Air by 2025. Shanker cut his price targets on UPS (UPS) and FedEx (FDX) and both stocks plunged more than 6% as a result.It was a particularly gruesome day for transportation stocks due to worries about the broader economy and confusion about the status of US-China trade talks.The Dow Jones Transportation Average, which includes FedEx and UPS as well as leading airlines, truckers and railroads, fell 4.4% -- its worst drop since June 2016.But Shanker paints a picture that should be extremely worrisome to UPS and FedEx.He notes that Amazon (AMZN), which currently is leasing 40 cargo jets, could eventually have 100 planes running and estimates that the planned Amazon Air routes could overlap with more than two-thirds of the volume flown by UPS and FedEx.That's bad news for both companies since Shanker said that UPS and FedEx each generate nearly 20% of their overall revenue from US air deliveries.Amazon has made big investments to bulk up Amazon Air. In the past few years, it has bought stakes in two freight delivery airlines -- Air Transport Services Group (ATSG) and Atlas Air Worldwide Holdings (AAWW).It also announced plans to invest .5 billion in order to build an Amazon Air hub on more than 900 acres of land that it is leasing near the Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport. Amazon bought an additional 210 acres earlier this year.There's a simple reason why Amazon will want to handle more of its own air deliveries. According to Shanker, Amazon could save between billion and billion next year. That works out to about 3% to 6% of its global shipping costs.But on a day when the broader market was tanking, investors didn't seem too enthusiastic about Shanker's thoughts on Amazon either. Shares of Amazon fell nearly 6%. 2113

Former White House lawyer Ty Cobb said Monday that he does not believe the ongoing special counsel probe led by Robert Mueller is a "witch hunt."The comment puts him at odds with his former boss, President Donald Trump, who has repeatedly called the probe into possible ties between his campaign and Russian interference in the 2016 election a "witch hunt."Cobb, speaking with CNN's Gloria Borger at the day-long CITIZEN Conference in New York, took a markedly different position."I don't think it's a witch hunt," he said.The comment came during a panel with Jack Quinn, a former White House lawyer under President Bill Clinton.Later, Cobb lauded Mueller, the former head of the FBI and a Vietnam War veteran."Bob Mueller is an American hero in my view," Cobb said, noting his service as a Marine."He was a very serious prosecutor," Cobb said. "He and I first met in the mid '80s when we were prosecuting different places and I have respected him throughout."Cobb left the White House earlier this year after months of working on the administration's response to the Mueller investigation."I've done what I came to do in terms of managing the White House response to the special counsel requests," Cobb said. "I'm extremely grateful to the President and Chief Kelly for the opportunity to serve my country."It was clear on Monday, however, the Cobb's time in the White House was unique, highlighted by the fact that he often had to work with the President on how to publicly respond to Mueller.Borger asked both lawyers about working with Presidents in crisis and Quinn lauded his former boss."I have practiced law for a really long time on Washington, Bill Clinton was the best client I ever had" he said. "Believe it or not, he not only listened to advice, he sought it out and particularly, frankly, when he was in crisis, he wanted input, he wanted other people's thinking, he wanted guidance."When Borger asked if there was anger, frustration of blow ups, Quinn said no, the vision of Clinton a quick tempered was a "myth."Cobb, to laughs, responded: "Um, I had a slightly different experience." 2109

For many of us, the word “outbreak” has taken a more personal meaning this year.For the people of Austin, Indiana, it’s not the first time they’ve dealt with an outbreak.“We’re an itty-bitty town, but we got big city problems,” said Austin resident Ethan Howard.By 2015, the opioid crisis had ravaged Howard’s hometown for years. People became hooked on painkillers and often used needles to take them. The same syringes would be passed from person to person.Dr. William Cooke arrived in Austin in 2004. Back then, he was the town’s only doctor. In fact, he was the town’s first doctor in a generation. He says he saw several issues in the southern Indiana community, including people’s health to poverty.As the opioid crisis started to wrap its grip across parts of the country, Dr. Cooke says he started to see another health issue spread in the community, starting around 2010.“What we saw was a really quick in dramatic rise in Hepatitis C around that time,” Dr. Cooke said. “Any community that has a high Hepatitis C rate is at high risk for an HIV outbreak.”By 2015, the opioid crisis had ravaged the city for years.“Opiates were my devil,” Howard recalled.Howard says his mom convinced him one day to go get tested, after he says he had shared a needle with his cousin.His test revealed he was positive for HIV.“I thought I was dead. I thought it was a death sentence,” Howard said.He wasn’t alone with testing positive for HIV in Austin.“In that first year, we had almost 200 cases,” Dr. Cooke said. “It was almost a quarter of the HIV cases in the state and this is a town of 4,200 people.”Austin had become home to one of the largest HIV outbreaks in rural America ever.Dr. Cooke helped convince then-Indiana Gov. Mike Pence to change his stance on needle exchanges.“It took a few months, but eventually, he signed the executive order allowing us to operate syringe service programs here,” Cooke said.That program, access to addiction recovery services and powerful HIV medicine has led to a dramatic drop in new cases.In 2015, Scott County, Indiana had 157 new HIV cases. In 2019, the county had only five, according to the Indiana Department of Health."The medications today are powerful enough and well tolerated enough that you should not spread the disease to anyone else and you should never worry about dying from HIV,” Dr. Cooke said.Dr. Cooke says Austin is still working to overcome some of the social challenges he found when he first arrived in the community in 2004.It’s been five years after the largest HIV outbreak in Indiana history. Like many communities across the world, this one is now dealing with the impacts of COVID-19.Nurse Jessica Howard is a proud native of Austin. She’s seen the challenges her community has faced over the years. She also sees the good in Austin, pointing to a local church pantry providing food and clothes to those in need.Jessica Howard in charge of coronavirus testing at Dr. Cooke’s office. She grew up in Austin and knows many of the patients that come through the door.As of early July, Scott County has not seen a large amount of coronavirus cases like other parts of the country, but the nurse worries about her patients that struggle with addiction who are now in quarantine and could relapse."These are people these are our people and we have to take care of them and protect them,” she said.Austin has come a long way from where it was in 2015, when HIV spread through a large part of the community.Last year, Dr. Cooke was named by American Academy of Family Physicians the AAFP 2019 Family Physician of the Year for his efforts to help stop the 2015 HIV outbreak.As for Howard, he says medication has made it so HIV is no longer detectable in his blood.He now travels as a musician and points to music as a source of strength that helped him through the darkest of times.“I fought and clawed my way out of a dark place,” Howard said.His fighting spirit is one this small Indiana city has used to battle through crisis before.“We’ve been through a healthcare disaster before,” Dr. Cooke said. “And there is a light on at the end of a tunnel.”It’s a mindset Dr. Cooke says we need now, as we all fight this new crisis of a coronavirus pandemic. 4221

Final moments carry a weight.“I know in my heart he knew I was with him, and that was when I had to make the decision to tell him it was ok to let go, recalled Laurie Beaudette of her final moments with her father.“It was because I loved my dad so much and I didn’t want him to suffer.”Beaudette’s father, Jim Mandeville, was a veteran who served during the Korean War. He had most recently been living at the Soldiers' Home in Holyoke in western Massachusetts."He was in the Soldiers' Home for over 16 years, made a lot of friends," Beaudette said.In April, she says her 83-year-old dad’s health quickly declined."The week before Easter, we were FaceTiming and he looked like a zombie, and he couldn’t respond to me," she recalled.On April 14, Jim Mandeville died after testing positive for COVID-19.“The cramped rooms, they had way too many beds,” she explained of her father’s living conditions. “Veterans roomed, they were definitely not social distanced.”The number of people at Soldiers' Home who have died from the virus stands at 76.“It was written up by 2010 by the VA for not having sufficient space between beds,” said Paul Barabani, who served as the facility’s superintendent from 2011 to 2016. “There wasn’t enough room to get by the bed, and the wall with a walker, wheelchairs were out of the question.”He says in 2012, he submitted a 6 million expansion and renovation plan to create more space, but the state never acted on it.“I often say, only if that they listened, if they had increased the staff, as well as renovating the building, the outcome may have been different," he said.Barabani is part of the Holyoke Soldiers' Home Coalition. The group is made up of former Soldiers' Home employees and family members of residents.The coalition is working is calling for better staffing, improved facilities, and other measures to make sure an outbreak doesn't happen again at the facility.In June, an independent investigation commissioned by the governor of Massachusetts said decisions made by the home’s leadership were “utterly baffling.”The report included a social worker’s quote, stating it “felt it was like moving the concentration camp—we [were] moving these unknowing veterans off to die.”The state’s secretary of veteran services subsequently resigned, and the home’s superintendent was fired.“What I would like to say to the state right now and to leaders and politicians is, make this right," said Cheryl Turgeon, whose father is living at the facility. "Make it right now, and don’t wait. There is no excuse for waiting, knowing what we do right now.”Gov. Charlie Baker released a plan in response to the report that includes million going towards infection control and a promise to add more staffing.Turgeon’s father is still inside Soldiers’ Home.“He’s going to be 90 in September, and I want to see him hit that milestone I want to see him make that 90th birthday," she said.Turgeon is part of the Holyoke Soldiers Home Coalition, and so is Cheryl Malandrinos.“My father-in-law was more than number 63, who died at the Soldier's Home," Malandrinos said.Malandrinos’ father-in-law served overseas and returned to spend decades as a public school teacher in western Massachusetts.She says in April his health declined over the course of a week.The Malandrinos family had to say the same goodbye tens of thousands of families have said nationwide. Many members of the family were not allowed inside the hospital and had to say goodbye through video chat.While the Holyoke Soldiers' Home Coalition and many others are pushing leaders to right the wrongs that lead to the outbreak to create a better future, for the families of the 76 lost lives, the mistakes, mismanagement, and this virus have left a forever mark.“For me, I’m the one who made the decision to put him in the Soldiers' Home. I’m the one who promised him he wouldn’t die alone. I have to live with that, and I have to get up every day and realize what I thought was a godsend for him, probably ended his life early,” Turgeon said. “And I could not fulfill the one promise that I made to him when I put him in there, because he did not want to go, so I have to deal with that every day.” 4198
