#UK - Deepcut verdict: recruit Cheryl James took her own life: Channel 4 News

Published on 3 Jun 2016
Cheryl James was an eighteen year old army recruit who went to Deepcut Barracks in 1995 to learn how to serve her country. Instead she was found dead after being left alone on guard duty.

The army and police assumed she'd taken her own life but there was never a proper investigation and allegations swirled of harassment, rule breaking, heavy drinking and sexual misconduct.

TheStreet: Technology Is Killing U.S. Jobs Says Jim Cramer

Published on 3 Jun 2016
Technology is evolving quickly and that digitization is destroying a lot of U.S. jobs, said TheStreet's Jim Cramer on the heels of the worse-than-expected May employment report. The 38,000 jobs created in May fell well short of consensus expectations of around 160,000. Also not helping the employment figures is the fact that coal, rail and oil jobs are 'going away' more quickly than people expected. Even banks are shutting down branches because of smartphone apps that reduce the need for bricks-and-mortar outposts.

#USA - economy suffers weakest growth since 2010 adding 38,000 jobs: wochit Business

Published on 3 Jun 2016
The US economy added just 38,000 jobs in May for the weakest growth since 2010. It gained 122,000 fewer jobs than expected ahead of a crucial meeting of the Federal Reserve. The department of labor announced Friday that the unemployment rate slipped down to 4.7%. A strike by 40,000 Verizon workers impacted the numbers. However, including them in the count would still account for less than half of expected job growth. The massively disappointing report is the last before the Fed’s next two-day meeting on June 14 when the US central bank may raise interest rates again. It is sure to add to speculation that a rate hike could be delayed until July

Hummingbird Resources (LON:HUM) eyeing Mali gold production in 16 months: ProactiveInvestors Stocktube

Published on 3 Jun 2016
Bert Monro, head of business development at Hummingbird Resources PLC (LON:HUM), says the fundraise for up to £52.7mln for the Yanfolila gold mine in Mali has been “extremely well supported by new and existing shareholders, and management are taking part as well.”

He expects the project to be high margin, explaining that “the combination of the grade and open-pit mining means that you’re able to drive extremely high returns.” Crucially Hummingbird anticipates gold production in around 16 months time.

Monro says Hummingbird is looking to hire some key positions both for the immediate construction as well as over the longer-term and, because not too many projects are currently being commissioned globally, it makes the job of hiring “world-class” people that bit easier.
