Betty White, Star of The Golden Girls, Dead at 99
White was gearing up to celebrate her 100th birthday on Jan. 17. Ahead of her centennial year, in January, White opened up to PEOPLE about how she was feeling about turning 100 years old.
"I'm so lucky to be in such good health and feel so good at this age," said the veteran actress. "It's amazing."
According to White, being "born a cockeyed optimist" was the key to her upbeat nature. "I got it from my mom, and that never changed," she said. "I always find the positive."

Community News: Guelph man loses nearly $100,000 in cryptocurrency scam
Guelph police are investigating after an online cryptocurrency scam resulted in a man losing nearly $100,000.
Police said the man was contacted by an unknown individual after posting in an online forum in September that he was looking for assistance learning how to invest in cryptocurrency.
By the end of October he had reportedly transferred approximately US$50,000 and was told the investment was now worth more than $210,000.
After being asked to make two separate transfers of $21,000 to pay a tax on the profit, investigators said he became suspicious and contacted police.
Police encourage residents to be vigilant when investing in cryptocurrency — to perform extensive research before transferring any funds and not accept investment advice from someone you haven’t met.

Magic Johnson not looking forward to HB0 series on his Showtime Lakers
Magic Johnson not looking forward to HB0 series on his Showtime Lakers
Despite the ravages of time, there still remains a large public appetite to revisit the Lakers dynasty of the 1980s led by Magic Johnson and Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.
The Magic Man was queried about HBO’s upcoming Adam McKay-produced series on the 1980s Showtime Lakers, “Winning Time: The Rise of the Lakers Dynasty.”
John C. Reilly will play Dr. Jerry Buss, the late legendary owner of the Lakers, and Johnson will be featured prominently, which does not please the icon.
Johnson looked as if the question had a bad odor to it.
“I’m not looking forward to it. I’m going to leave it at that,” Johnson said forcefully to TMZ.
One of the reasons Johnson may not be pleased is that he is already made it publicly known that he plans to produce his own documentary on his time with the Lakers. Moreover, current owner Jeannie Buss has also said she is planning a similar TV project on the Lakers.
So this may be a case of flooding the market on this one topic. This might be why Johnson gestured in the negative when asked if he will watch the HBO series.
“No,” he simply said.
There is also the concern that the HBO doc will spend a lot of time on Johnson’s reputation as a relentless partyer, something that Johnson has tried to downplay in recent years.
Delta says flight to Shanghai turned back because of new Covid rules The incident comes as China clamps down on Covid travel restrictions ahead of the Winter Olympics in Beijing.
Delta Air Lines said Monday that new pandemic-related cleaning requirements at a Shanghai airport were behind the turning back of a recent flight from Seattle in midair, a move that had prompted a protest from the Chinese Consulate in San Francisco.
An emailed statement said the new mandates at Shanghai Pudong International Airport “require significantly extended ground time and are not operationally viable for Delta.”
It wasn’t clear what the rules are and what prompted the change, but it comes as China tightens its already strict Covid-19 travel restrictions in the face of a growing outbreak in the city of Xi’an and ahead of the Winter Olympics in Beijing in six weeks.
Xi’an, which is about 600 miles southwest of Beijing, reported more than 300 new cases over the weekend, a sharp rise from previous days. The city of 13 million people has been locked down, with only one person per household allowed out every two days to shop for necessities.
The Delta flight that turned back to Seattle last week left passengers with expired Covid-19 test results and U.S. visas, according to Chinese media reports.
"Haiti’s GANG Warfare"
In a country dominated by gangs, photographer Rodrigo Abd’s images show both armed gangsters and the residents they terrorise
The two images are as stark as what they represent: the cause and effect of Haiti’s increasing woes. In one, a masked and armed gangster keeps lookout on a Port-au-Prince rooftop, just a few blocks from the presidential palace. In the other, a family recently displaced by gang violence takes shelter in a school that now houses dozens of families, a stone’s throw from their homes.
“Port-au-Prince is almost entirely controlled by gangs, and we wanted to show the efforts of people that are running businesses to survive,” says Rodrigo Abd, 45, an Argentinian staff photographer with the Associated Press who took the images. “But I was also trying to show another side to Haiti, to avoid the stereotypes that we always repeat, to show the violent without the violence, or the poor without the poverty.”
Haiti is beset by overlapping crises. The country’s president, Jovenel Moïse, was assassinated in early July in circumstances that remain mysterious. A 7.2 magnitude earthquake wrecked the country’s rural south in August. In September, thousands of Haitian migrants that had been living across South America were deported from Texas after years away from their homeland.
Meanwhile, in the political vacuum, local rights groups estimate that as many as 165 gangs continue to terrorise residents, throwing up roadblocks and kidnapping rich and poor alike for ransom. Aid deliveries to the quake-struck south are often turned back by militiamen, who in October kidnapped a group of 17 US and Canadian missionary workers and their families. Over 600 people have been kidnapped in Haiti this year, over triple last year’s total. Fuel shortages have added to the woes, especially in a country without a reliable electrical grid.
“You can feel an aggressive landscape, that it is a place that could explode very easily and at any time, because the situation is so bad,” says Abd, who has photographed war zones around the world.
Abd has worked several times in Haiti, travelling to the Caribbean country first in 2004, just before the coup that removed then-president Jean-Bertrand Aristide from office in another wave of instability.

New Omicron variant fills up children's hospitals in the U.S.

A five-fold increase in pediatric admissions in New York City this month. Close to double the numbers admitted in Washington, D.C. And nationwide, on average, pediatric hospitalizations in the U.S. are up 35 per cent in just the past week.
The highly transmissible Omicron variant is teaming up with the busy holiday season to infect more children across the United States than ever before, and children's hospitals are bracing for it to get even worse.
"I think we are going to see more numbers now than we have ever seen," Dr. Stanley Spinner, who is chief medical officer and vice president at Texas Children's Pediatrics & Urgent Care in Houston, told CNN.
MORE KIDS IN HOSPITALS
Across the country, pediatricians are bracing for a busy January.
"It's almost like you can see the train coming down the track and you're just hoping it doesn't go off the rails," Dr. Claudia Hoyen, director of pediatric infection control at UH Rainbow Babies and Children's Hospital in Cleveland told CNN.
"It's going to be a very interesting couple of weeks. We've just had all of these kids mixing together with everybody else during Christmas. We have one more holiday to get through with New Year's, and then we'll be sending everybody back to school," Hoyen said.
"Everybody is kind of waiting on the edge, wondering what we'll end up seeing."
And while the Delta variant infected more children than previous variants, Omicron is looking even worse, Spinner said.
"What's concerning on the (pediatric) side is that, unlike the adults -- where they're reporting for the number of adults getting infected relatively low numbers getting hospitalized -- what we're really seeing, we think, is an increasing number of kids being hospitalized," Spinner said.
"So that is a concern to us, especially with those that can't be vaccinated under 5 or those that are not fully vaccinated or not vaccinated at all that are eligible over 5. So it is a big concern."
12,833 new COVID-19 cases in Quebec, increase from previous days
12,833 new COVID-19 cases in Quebec, staggering increase from previous days
This brings the total number of people infected to 559,270.
Since the start of the pandemic, there have only been two other days that the province recorded more than 10,000 cases: 10,246 on Dec. 22 and 10,713 on Dec. 23, according to the Institut national de santé publique du Québec (INSPQ).
HOSPITALIZATIONS
Hospitalizations are up by 88, bringing the number of people in Quebec hospitals to 702.
Of those, 115 people are in intensive care; up by six.
Health officials note the risk of infection for people who are not vaccinated is 1.2 times that of someone who received two doses and the risk of hospitalization is 12.1 times someone who is fully vaccinated.
VACCINATION CAMPAIGN
Quebec's health care professionals administered 59,691 more vaccinations, for a total of 15,005,169 doses given in the province.
As of Dec. 27, a total of 7,260,432 Quebecers, or 89 per cent of the eligible population aged five and up, have received their first dose of a vaccine and 6,657,312 people, or 82 per cent, have received two.
Of those eligible for a third dose, 1,087,425 Quebecers, or 13 per cent, have received it.
VARIANT TRACKER
According to the Institut national de santé publique du Québec (INSPQ), the number of Omicron (B.1.1.529) variant cases is now 3,306.
The numbers currently stand at 45,665 Alpha (B.1.1.7), 460 Bêta (B.1.351), 610 Gamma (P.1) and 32,804 Delta (B.1.167.2).
Police, coroner investigating after inmate dies at Regina Reintegration Unit
Investigations are ongoing after a 59-year-old male inmate was found unresponsive and died in his room at the Regina Reintegration Unit on Dec. 23.
Corrections staff called EMS and initiated unsuccessful life-saving measures. The inmate was declared deceased at approximately 10:20 p.m. Thursday.
The unit, located in the city, is a reduced custody setting for inmates deemed a low-risk to the public. It offers programming to help inmates reintegrate into the community.
The Regina Police Service and the Saskatchewan Coroners Service are investigating. The Ministry of Corrections, Policing and Public Safety will also be conducting an internal investigation.
In Saskatchewan, a coroner’s inquest is mandatory when a death happens to a person held in custody. There is an exception if the person in custody died from natural causes and the death is not preventable.
The ministry said in a release Tuesday the death is not related to COVID-19 and the man’s next of kin have been notified.

'We still feel the guilt:' Tyler Summitt, son of legendary coach, tries to move on from scandal
Tyler Summitt is a basketball coach and the son of legendary women’s basketball coach Pat Summitt.
On Thursday, five years after Tyler Summitt resigned in disgrace as head coach of the women’s basketball team at Louisiana Tech, he will be with the woman at the center of the scandal that brought him down.
Summitt was having an extramarital affair with the team’s starting point guard, Brooklyn Pumroy. Now they are married and live with their 2-year-old son, Breck, on the banks of Choctaw Lake in London, Ohio.
“I think we really just try to keep praying for forgiveness," Summitt told USA TODAY Sports. “We still feel the guilt."
Summitt, 30, got divorced from his first wife after the scandal broke in 2016. It was public humiliation for the only child of Pat Summitt, arguably the greatest coach in women’s college basketball history.
At Tennessee, Pat Summitt won eight national championships, with Tyler Summitt attending most of those title games. He also helped oversee his mother’s medical care after she was diagnosed in 2011 early-onset Alzheimer’s disease, which forced her to retire at 59.
She died about two months after Summitt resigned at Louisiana Tech.
“That year is just still a blur for me,’’ Summitt said. “I saw more than one therapist just to process what was going on, whether it was Louisiana Tech or Mom passing away.
“Even now I look back and there’s still emotions. So I don’t know if I’ve fully processed it.’’
He married Pumroy in 2018, the same year their son was born. Five years after his resignation, Summitt said, they will spend part of the evening as they have for the past few years.

Community News MANDEL: Aspiring rapper senselessly 'executed' in 2017 Scarborough shooting Twin Brother Malcolm Ellis, 25, of Toronto, was gunned down at a house on Blacktoft Dr. in Scarborough on Friday, Nov. 26, 2021
On a Sunday morning four years ago, aspiring rapper Malique “Lil Mell” Ellis was on his way to his Scarborough apartment laundry room with his girlfriend when he was ambushed and shot 15 times in the hallway.
He was just 21 when he was killed, another young Black male murder victim who hardly made the news.
“Mr. Mebratu was in the third-floor hallway of 3121 Eglinton Ave. E. with a loaded firearm waiting for Mr. Ellis to leave his apartment. When Mr. Ellis left his apartment, Mr. Mebratu implemented the plan to kill Mr. Ellis that brought him to the third-floor hallway.
“In all the circumstances, I find the shooting was predatory in nature. It was tantamount to an execution.”
And an efficient one, at that. Mebratu left his girlfriend’s Mississauga apartment at 9:30 a.m. and returned 90 minutes later. In that short time, he drove to Ellis`s building at Eglinton Ave. E. and Markham Rd., lay in wait for him to exit his apartment, killed him and then fled the scene.
Malcolm Ellis, 25, of Toronto, was gunned down at a house on Blacktoft Dr. in Scarborough on Friday, Nov. 26, 2021
And unbelievably, that mother’s pain has only doubled. Just last month, Malique’s twin brother Malcolm Ellis was gunned down in Scarborough as well.
