UPDATE: The power outage was not the reason why electricity was lost in the Riverview Heights section of the city, according to a spokesperson for Public Service Electric and Gas.
Kathy Hennessy Riley, PSE&G Corporate Communications, said the cause was weather-related. “I wanted to clarify that the traffic light pole that was struck at Broadway and Market Street was not the cause of the local power outage that affected the Riverview Heights section of the City on Monday night.
The outage, which affected approximately 2500 customers, was weather-related. Crews worked to safely identify and address the issue and restore service to affected customers as quickly as possible.”
A thunderstorm was happening in Gloucester City and the surrounding area when the power outage occurred.
Over in the corner, smiling and tapping his foot, was Pop Walker. Pop and several other residents of the Rest of Your Life retirement home were there to enjoy the dance and celebrate the arrival of summer. Pop has a hard time with his memory, these days, but always forgets things with a smile.
“Pop,” said Mrs. Doc, “how about a dance?”
“Why sure … uh?”
“Mrs. Doc.”
“Right. Mrs. Doc.”
There are some who say Mrs. Doc has an actual first name, but you know how rumors are spread.
Now Pop had learned to waltz back when more people did it, and the decades had smoothed his dance steps with the fine sanding of time. It was a pleasure for Mrs. Doc to go around the floor with him.
PHILADELPHIA, PA (June 23, 2026)(CNBNews)–Philadelphia police announced Tuesday the arrest of a suspect in connection with a March mass shooting that left two men dead and three others injured in the city’s 18th District.
Marquis Andrews was taken into custody on June 23 and transferred from the Philadelphia Federal Detention Center to the police department’s Homicide Unit, where he faces charges for his alleged role in the deadly attack.
The arrest stems from an incident on Monday, March 30, 2026. At approximately 8:40 p.m., officers responded to emergency calls reporting an armed individual on the 300 block of South 60th Street. Upon arrival, responding officers discovered five individuals suffering from gunshot wounds.
The Coast Guard and partner agencies are searching Tuesday for a missing man and teenager in the water off Hanauma Bay on the eastern side of Oahu.
Missing are a 49-year-old man and his 16-year-old son. Family members reported that the pair departed their hotel around 7 a.m. to hike the Hanauma Bay Rock Bridge Trail.
At approximately 8:45 a.m., a good Samaritan found a backpack containing the man’s personal effects near the trail and alerted authorities. Additionally, Honolulu Fire Department personnel found the man’s car near the trailhead entrance.
After receiving notification from the Honolulu Fire Department at 11:11 a.m., Coast Guard Sector Honolulu command center watchstanders issued an urgent marine information broadcast and directed the launch of a 45-foot Response Boat-Medium crew from Coast Guard Station Honolulu and an MH-65 Dolphin helicopter crew from Coast Guard Air Station Barbers Point.
A New Jersey Department of Corrections investigation uncovered an alleged contraband smuggling and money laundering scheme involving a Senior Correctional Police Officer, current and former incarcerated persons and civilians, resulting in criminal charges against six individuals.
“Contraband directly threatens the lives and safety of everyone within correctional facilities,” said Commissioner Victoria L. Kuhn, Esq. “Introducing prohibited items puts both staff and the incarcerated population at risk. This successful investigation by the South Woods State Prison Special Investigations Division reflects a total commitment to maintaining a safe, secure, and stable environment.”
The following information is preliminary and subject to change. At approximately 8:20 p.m., officers responded to reports of gunfire on the highway along the 3200 block of West Clearfield Street.
Upon arrival, they located an adult male victim suffering from a gunshot wound to the head. Officers immediately transported the victim to Temple University Hospital where he succumbed to his injuries and was pronounced deceased at 8:45 p.m.
There are no arrests and no suspects identified at this time. The investigation is actively ongoing with the Homicide Unit.
Remixing a track, preparing a karaoke version, or building a backing track for live performance all start with the same problem — the vocals and instrumentals are locked together in a single audio file, and separating them manually takes hours of precision editing in a professional DAW. SongAgent AI Music Agent solves this with its built-in Vocal Remover: an AI-powered separation tool that splits any audio file into a clean instrumental version and an isolated vocal track in seconds, with no audio editing experience required.
Whether you are a producer building a remix, a musician preparing karaoke content, a filmmaker extracting dialogue from a soundtrack, or a content creator isolating vocals for sampling, SongAgent’s Vocal Remover delivers precision separation without manual equalization, phase cancellation, or spectral editing.
What Is AI Vocal Remover?
Traditional vocal removal requires spectral analysis, phase inversion, and careful frequency filtering — a technical process that produces inconsistent results on complex mixes and demands significant editing expertise. AI-powered vocal separation works differently: the model has learned to distinguish vocal characteristics — timbre, pitch patterns, formants, breath sounds — from instrumental frequencies across thousands of audio examples, producing cleaner separation than manual techniques on most commercial recordings.
