“Ink Master” star Daniel Silva will reportedly be arrested in the death of YouTuber Corey La Barrie, who was a passenger with him in a car crash in Los Angeles on Sunday night, according to TMZ. It was La Barrie’s 25th birthday.
While they would not confirm names, a spokesperson for the Los Angeles Police Department told Variety that there was a car accident at Hudson Street and Carpenter Avenue about 9 p.m. Sunday. The driver and passenger were transferred to a hospital, where the passenger died from his injuries. The driver did not sustain life-threatening injuries, but is still being treated, and will be booked on an “open charge” when he is released from the hospital.
According to TMZ, Silva is still being treated for a broken hip, and will be arrested in connection to the death either at the hospital or once he is discharged.
More details are pending regarding the nature of the accident. However, in an Instagram post on Monday, La Barrie’s brother Jarrad said Corey died “in a car accident with his drunk friend driving.”
Female Unemployment Hits an All-Time High, Pandemic has erased the gains of the past decade

Pandemic has erased the gains of the past decade

(NEWSER) – American women reached a milestone in December, holding just over 50% of the nation's payroll jobs. "It’s a milestone because it’s really heralding the future and not just telling us where we are today," a professor said when the figures were released in January, the Washington Post reported. Just a few months later, it's a different story. The workforce gains achieved over the past decade have been wiped out by the pandemic shutdown, per the Post. The unemployment rate for women was 16.2% in April, almost 3 percentage points above the rate for men.
Women held the vast majority of jobs in education and health services before the pandemic hit, but they took 83% of the job losses in those fields. Women had fewer than half of the retail jobs, but 61% of the retail jobs cut were held by women. "How are we supposed to ever come back?" said an official at the National Women’s Law Center.
What to Do With 50 Pounds of Potatoes? The Quandaries of Bulk Buying
What to Do With 50 Pounds of Potatoes? The Quandaries of Bulk Buying
The pandemic has turned many cooks into big-volume shoppers, and left them puzzling out how to manage a bursting pantry of ingredients.

But every store she visited in Portland, Ore., was out of flour and other staples, so last month she ended up at a retail website, Nuts.com. Carried away by the site’s bounty of options and its $79 minimum order for free shipping, she bought 20 pounds of beans, rice, flour and seeds — far more than she has any idea what to do with.

“It is just completely absurd,” said Ms. Mann, 28, who lives alone. She has been eating lupini beans every day, and thinks she could subsist on just those for another month. “I have enough dry goods to last me through another quarantine.”
Among those who are privileged enough to afford buying in volume, the pandemic has suddenly spawned a new population of bulk shoppers.
They’re stocking up on foods they never thought they’d need in large amounts. They’re experiencing the simultaneous bouts of stress and satisfaction that come with buying and storing so much food, and trying not to waste any. They’re changing how they cook, diligently planning meals to use up all those ingredients — like, say, 50 pounds of potatoes.
Matt Bochneak bought the bag of potatoes from a restaurant supply store in Portland because it cost only $20, and he wanted some peace of mind as store shelves emptied. But he feels overwhelmed by the sheer volume.
“There’s no way I could eat 50 pounds of potatoes,” Mr. Bochneak, 42, said. He grilled a few of them, and had plans to make gnocchi — but the potatoes turned out to be the wrong type.

'Our life is in danger': Unemployment hits 34% in Hawaii with no end in sight
https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2020/05/10/hawaii-coronavirus-travel-restrictions-trigger-record-unemployment/3093887001/-----------
For 32 years, Julie Gabot drove more than 80 miles round trip each day to work as a housekeeper at the Sheraton Waikiki, cleaning after tourists who enjoyed the resort's infinity pool and beachfront views.
But after tourism across Hawaii shutdown because of the coronavirus virus, she was let go without severance. Her husband, who worked at the resort for 28 years, was out also out of a job.
Suddenly, Gabot, 62, had two elderly relatives to care for, two adult children to feed at home and no income coming in. For the first time in her life, she's leaning on a local food bank, depending on friends to stand in the hours-long line for groceries and then sharing their bounty with her. When she cooks for her family these days, she's careful not to waste any food.
"Our life is in danger because, of course, we don't know what will happen," she said. "There's no real hope for good things in the future."
Hawaii is facing it's highest unemployment rate ever as strict stay-at-home orders and a virtual shutdown of the state's once mighty tourism industry have left residents reeling, leaning on their savings or unable to pay rent and feed their families. Since March, the state's unemployment rate has soared from 3% to 34%, one of the highest in the nation.
The pain has been widespread, with charities encountering unprecedented requests for food and assistance and small business owners grappling with plummeting profits. The state's struggles to keep up with unemployment claims even prompted some residents to come out and threaten violence against state workers.
Ice cream shop closes one day after reopening because customers didn't follow social distancing rule
https://www.cnn.com/2020/05/10/us/ice-cream-shop-closes-employee-harassment-trnd/index.htmlThings got so bad at the Polar Cave Ice Cream Parlour in Mashpee that an employee quit the same day.
"One of my best workers quit yesterday at the end of her shift. She stuck it through her shift," owner Mark Lawrence told CNN affiliate WFXT. "But the words she was called and the language, you wouldn't even say in a men's locker room. And to say it to a 17-year-old kid, they should be ashamed of themselves."
In accordance with reopening guidelines, Lawrence said the shop asked all customers to place their orders at least one hour in advance.
However, many customers ignored the request and showed up without doing so. When the shop got busy, customers took their anger out on the staff, he said.
"Now I open the doors to a whole new world, with gloves and masks and we're running around like chickens, and people are like where's my ice cream? I'm not a trauma center, it's ice cream!" Lawrence told WFXT.
"People have forgotten how to treat other human beings in the six or seven weeks that they've been confined to their homes. They have no clue how to respect other human beings."
WH team brace for 20% to 25% unemployment in May or June
https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2020-05-10/jobless-rate-may-peak-above-20-white-house-aide-hassett-saysTrump’s Economic Team Braces for Worsening Job Market in May
By Jennifer A Dlouhy, Steve Geimann, and Michael Riley
------------------
The April U.S. jobless rate, released Friday, tripled to 14.7%, the highest since the 1930s. And it’s only set to worsen in May as job cuts spread further into white-collar work.
Unemployment may peak “north of” 20% in May or June before the economy starts to come back from coronavirus-related shutdowns in the second half of 2020, White House adviser Kevin Hassett said on CBS’s “Face that Nation.”
The estimate was “not science as much as arithmetic,” based on the large numbers of people filing initial unemployment claims at the moment, said Hassett, a former chairman of the Council of Economic Advisers who returned to the White House to consult on virus-related matters.
Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin conceded on “Fox News Sunday” that the real unemployment rate could already be closer to 25%, based on 7 million additional workers who have lost jobs since the April monthly figures were compiled, and those who’ve stopped looking for work.

tweet of the hour
https://twitter.com/andover_gary/status/1259519699639033856I’m over 70 years old. The “pro-life“ party thinks I’ve lived long enough. I need to just go ahead and die to benefit the economy.
I think I’ll live another twenty years just to piss them off.
