"Travmedia is an invaluable resource for anyone in the travel industry. The platform allows access to a whole range of journalists and publications, and the social events provide fantastic networking opportunities. We wouldn’t be without it!"

"TravMedia has been fantastic, helping us build our media relationships and spread the word about responsible tourism. The events have also been very positive and add to a feeling of a real life ‘TravMedia community’."

"In my view there is no better service available. Without TravMedia I doubt we would have secured the successes we now enjoy."

"I look at TravMedia newsletters on a daily basis and often find items that I follow up with the company or PR. It’s a quick, succinct one-stop shop and useful for all travel companies."

"TravMedia has grown from strength to strength, becoming an essential tool for keeping up-to-date with industry news."

"TravMedia is essential for reaching the widest possible network of PRs. When I need specific information, I know TravMedia will get my message out to the right contacts instantly. No less important is that the team are all personable and approachable."

"TravMedia is one of my first ports of call whenever I'm planning a research trip. It's an easy and incredibly time-saving way to connect with the right travel PRs. Great networking events too!"

"TravMedia is an essential tool for us to send out our press releases and newsletters. It’s easy to use and reaches press far wider than our own mailing list. We strongly recommend it."

"As a national newspaper travel editor, I find TravMedia indispensable for sourcing content, quickly, from the great multiplicity of travel PRs."

"TravMedia's a really useful resource for planning features and keeping up with the latest travel news. The journo request option is particularly useful and always results in some interesting discoveries - it's great if you're working against the clock too."

"We have been working with TravMedia for many years now, and it’s a trusted PR tool that gives us the quickest route to our most influential media partners. There’s also the added benefit of well-attended media events, where we can meet all our target journalists."

"TravMedia lets me get the message of Franklin, Tennessee out to a hyper-targeted list of media covering the travel industry, while also allowing me to keep an eye on industry trends and see what other destinations and media are talking about on a daily basis."

The first title in a revamped DC slate overseen by studio bosses Gunn and Peter Safran, Superman will follow the superhero of the same name as he looks to reconcile his Kryptonian heritage with his human upbringing.

Previously, Hoover has been seen in multiple Guardians of the Galaxy films, as well as such titles as The Suicide Squad , Holidate , and The Belko Experiment . Up next, she’ll be seen on the Max series Duster from J.J. Abrams and LaToya Morgan.

Famous waterfall in China goes viral after hiker finds pipe supplying it

HONG KONG — China’s highest natural waterfall has cascaded into controversy after a video posted to social media showed water flowing from a pipe built into the rock face.

The Yuntai Sky Fall, which at just over 1,000 feet is classified as China’s highest tourism site, is popular with visitors, many of whom become soaked by mist as they view the torrent of water from a platform near its base.

But after a hiker posted the video showing the pipe on Douyin, the Chinese version of TikTok , the operators of the Yuntai Mountain Geo park where the falls are based admitted they had made a “small enhancement” to the site.

“To enrich the visiting experience of our friends, and to ensure that you who have traveled from afar do not come in vain, I have made a small enhancement during the dry season, solely to be able to present myself in a better state when meeting with my friends,” they said in a statement.

On Douyin , the video of the large pipe coming out of the mountain with water pouring out of it quickly went viral.

Alongside the video, the hiker who posted it wrote that it was difficult to reach the source of the waterfall, but when they got there they found only a pipe.

After the video was shared thousands of times, for the most part on Weibo, China’s largest microblogging site, users were understanding about the decision to keep the water flowing.

“As long as you are willing to put in the effort for me, that is good enough,” one user wrote. Another added that it was “great that you can still see the grand waterfall even during the dry season.”

“I understand,” one said. “Actually, many scenic spots do this during the dry season, otherwise without water it wouldn’t feel worth the visit.”

Others were slightly less forgiving.

“They are just so accustomed to fabricating things,” one user wrote, while others pointed out that the park was deceiving tourists and unfairly profiting.

Under Article 48 of the Tourism Law of the People’s Republic of China, “websites releasing information on tourism operation shall ensure the authenticity and accuracy of such information.”

Before the hiker uploaded the video, the pipe was not mentioned on the website or social media accounts of the park, which received more than 7 million visitors last year, according to the Department of Culture and Tourism in the eastern Henan Province, where the park is.

However, there are other artificial waterfalls in China, including one at the Tiantai Mountain in the eastern Zhejiang province that is known for its “punctual clocking off.”

Dry for 60 years because of the construction of a reservoir, in 2013 it was transformed into a cascading waterfall that now runs for set hours every day.

There's another COVID variant you should know about: KP.3 now makes up 25% of COVID cases

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention data shows that a new COVID variant, the KP.3 variant , is rising to dominance across the United States.

For the two-week period starting on May 26 and ending on June 8, the government agency data shows that KP.3 accounts for 25% of COVID cases in the U.S. and is now the dominant variant. This knocks down previous frontrunner, the JN.1 variant , which spread globally last winter. KP.2 is right after KP.3 and now makes up 22.5% of cases.

The CDC uses Nowcast data tracker to project the COVID variants over a two-week period. The tool is used to help estimate current prevalence of variants, but does not predict future spread of the virus, the CDC said.

Could there be a summer surge?: New COVID-19 FLiRT variants are now the dominant variant.

What is the KP.3 variant?

Like JN.1 and "FLiRT" variants KP.1.1 and KP.2, KP.3 is a similar strand.

USA TODAY reached out to the CDC for more information on the variant but have not heard back.

State of COVID cases in US

Although the rates for deaths and hospitalizations have declined significantly, the data also shows that the rates for positive tests and emergency room visits are on the rise.

The CDC recently reported on June 4 that "COVID-19 infections are growing or likely growing in 30 states."

COVID fall vaccine will target JN.1

The dominant emergence of the KP.3 variant comes on the heels of an FDA panel meeting this week to discuss updates to a COVID vaccine for the fall.

During the Vaccines and Related Biological Products Advisory Committee , health experts from vaccine manufacturers Pfizer, Moderna and Novavax each told the panel they were prepared to make JN.1-targeted vaccines available in August pending FDA approval.

The updated vaccines are set to be  released in the fall , ahead of expected winter upticks in COVID-19 cases.

FACT SHEET: President   Biden Announces New Actions to Secure the   Border

New actions will bar migrants who cross our Southern border unlawfully from receiving asylum Biden taking action as Congressional Republicans put partisan politics ahead of national security, twice voting against toughest reforms in decades

Since his first day in office, President Biden has called on Congress to secure our border and address our broken immigration system. Over the past three years, while Congress has failed to act, the President has acted to secure our border. His Administration has deployed the most agents and officers ever to address the situation at the Southern border, seized record levels of illicit fentanyl at our ports of entry, and brought together world leaders on a framework to deal with changing migration patterns that are impacting the entire Western Hemisphere.  Earlier this year, the President and his team reached a historic bipartisan agreement with Senate Democrats and Republicans to deliver the most consequential reforms of America’s immigration laws in decades. This agreement would have added critical border and immigration personnel, invested in technology to catch illegal fentanyl, delivered sweeping reforms to the asylum system, and provided emergency authority for the President to shut down the border when the system is overwhelmed. But Republicans in Congress chose to put partisan politics ahead of our national security, twice voting against the toughest and fairest set of reforms in decades. President Biden believes we must secure our border. That is why today, he announced executive actions to bar migrants who cross our Southern border unlawfully from receiving asylum. These actions will be in effect when high levels of encounters at the Southern Border exceed our ability to deliver timely consequences, as is the case today. They will make it easier for immigration officers to remove those without a lawful basis to remain and reduce the burden on our Border Patrol agents. But we must be clear: this cannot achieve the same results as Congressional action, and it does not provide the critical personnel and funding needed to further secure our Southern border. Congress still must act. The Biden-Harris Administration’s executive actions will:   Bar Migrants Who Cross the Southern Border Unlawfully From Receiving Asylum

• President Biden issued a proclamation under Immigration and Nationality Act sections 212(f) and 215(a) suspending entry of noncitizens who cross the Southern border into the United States unlawfully. This proclamation is accompanied by an interim final rule from the Departments of Justice and Homeland Security that restricts asylum for those noncitizens.
• These actions will be in effect when the Southern border is overwhelmed, and they will make it easier for immigration officers to quickly remove individuals who do not have a legal basis to remain in the United States.
• These actions are not permanent. They will be discontinued when the number of migrants who cross the border between ports of entry is low enough for America’s system to safely and effectively manage border operations. These actions also include similar humanitarian exceptions to those included in the bipartisan border agreement announced in the Senate, including those for unaccompanied children and victims of trafficking.

Recent Actions to secure our border and address our broken immigration system: Strengthening the Asylum Screening Process

• The Department of Homeland Security published a proposed rule to ensure that migrants who pose a public safety or national security risk are removed as quickly in the process as possible rather than remaining in prolonged, costly detention prior to removal. This proposed rule will enhance security and deliver more timely consequences for those who do not have a legal basis to remain in the United States.

Announced new actions to more quickly resolve immigration cases

• The Department of Justice and Department of Homeland Security launched a Recent Arrivals docket to more quickly resolve a portion of immigration cases for migrants who attempt to cross between ports of entry at the Southern border in violation of our immigration laws.
• Through this process, the Department of Justice will be able to hear these cases more quickly and the Department of Homeland Security will be able to more quickly remove individuals who do not have a legal basis to remain in the United States and grant protection to those with valid claims.
• The bipartisan border agreement would have created and supported an even more efficient framework for issuing final decisions to all asylum seekers. This new process to reform our overwhelmed immigration system can only be created and funded by Congress.

Revoked visas of CEOs and government officials who profit from migrants coming to the U.S. unlawfully

• The Department of State imposed visa restrictions on executives of several Colombian transportation companies who profit from smuggling migrants by sea. This action cracks down on companies that help facilitate unlawful entry into the United States, and sends a clear message that no one should profit from the exploitation of vulnerable migrants.
• The State Department also imposed visa restrictions on over 250 members of the Nicaraguan government, non-governmental actors, and their immediate family members for their roles in supporting the Ortega-Murillo regime, which is selling transit visas to migrants from within and beyond the Western Hemisphere who ultimately make their way to the Southern border.
• Previously, the State Department revoked visas of executives of charter airlines for similar actions.

Expanded Efforts to Dismantle Human Smuggling and Support Immigration Prosecutions

• The Departments of State and Justice launched an “Anti-Smuggling Rewards” initiative designed to dismantle the leadership of human smuggling organizations that bring migrants through Central America and across the Southern U.S. border. The initiative will offer financial rewards for information leading to the identification, location, arrest, or conviction of those most responsible for significant human smuggling activities in the region.
• The Department of Justice will seek new and increased penalties against human smugglers to properly account for the severity of their criminal conduct and the human misery that it causes.
• The Department of Justice is also partnering with the Department of Homeland Security to direct additional prosecutors and support staff to increase immigration-related prosecutions in crucial border U.S. Attorney’s Offices. Efforts include deploying additional DHS Special Assistant United States Attorneys to different U.S. Attorneys’ offices, assigning support staff to critical U.S. Attorneys’ offices, including DOJ Attorneys to serve details in U.S. Attorneys’ Offices in several border districts, and partnering with federal agencies to identify additional resources to target these crimes.

Enhancing Immigration Enforcement

• The Department of Homeland Security has surged agents to the Southern border and is referring a record number of people into expedited removal.
• The Department of Homeland Security is operating more repatriation flights per week than ever before. Over the past year, DHS has removed or returned more than 750,000 people, more than in every fiscal year since 2010.
• Working closely with partners throughout the region, the Biden-Harris Administration is identifying and collaborating on enforcement efforts designed to stop irregular migration before migrants reach our Southern border, expand investment and integration opportunities in the region to support those who may otherwise seek to migrate, and increase lawful pathways for migrants as an alternative to irregular migration.

Seizing Fentanyl at our Border

• Border officials have seized more fentanyl at ports of entry in the last two years than the past five years combined, and the President has added 40 drug detection machines across points of entry to disrupt the fentanyl smuggling into the Homeland. The bipartisan border agreement would fund the installation of 100 additional cutting-edge inspection machines to help detect fentanyl at our Southern border ports of entry.
• In close partnership with the Government of Mexico, the Department of Justice has extradited Nestor Isidro Perez Salaz, known as “El Nini,” from Mexico to the United States to face prosecution for his role in illicit fentanyl trafficking and human rights abuses. This is one of many examples of joint efforts with Mexico to tackle the fentanyl and synthetic drug epidemic that is killing so many people in our countries and globally, and to hold the drug trafficking organizations to account.
