At this summer camp run by grandmas, kids learn cooking skills and life adviceNew Foto - At this summer camp run by grandmas, kids learn cooking skills and life advice

LOS ANGELES (AP) — The smell of frying garlic and ginger is inescapable as it wafts through the room, while a row of fidgety kids watches an older woman in a blue plaid apron cooking in front of them. "When I was growing up my mom used to make this a lot," she says, showing a chicken stir fry recipe. At this "Intergenerational Summer Camp" in a Southern California suburb, the grandmas are in charge. Every week, they taught a group of 8-to-14-year-olds how to cook a new dish and a do a handicraft such as sewing, embroidering, clay jewelry and card marking. "Isolation and loneliness is something that seniors are challenged with, and they love having younger people around them," said Zainab Hussain, a program manager at Olive Community Services, a nonprofit aimed at bringing older adults together that hosted the camp. The camp was held at a community center in Fullerton, a city in Orange County that's home to a large Arab population, and many of the campers and grandmas come from those communities. In between activities, the small room bustled with energy as the girls chatted and munched on snacks. Some of the volunteer grandmas milled around and watched, content to just be around the youngsters. In July, during the final week of camp, Janna Moten and her friends were learning how to use a sewing machine and make pouches. "Slowly, slowly," one grandma chided as Moten stomped on the machine's pedal, causing the needle to rapidly jerk up and down. She pressed her foot down again, gingerly, and managed to sew a straight line. "Honestly, I'm just here for the food," the 9 year old quipped. Still, she beamed as she showed the two pieces of fabric she sewed together and turned inside out, forming a rectangular pocket. Moten said she's been practicing hand-stitching at home after learning embroidery a previous week. "Sewing's pretty easy, it's just hard keeping the lines straight," she said. She added that her own grandma was stricter than the ones at summer camp. Haqiqah Abdul Rahim, the instructor for sewing, said many kids don't learn these skills at school anymore through home economics classes, so they're "filling in a gap." She stood in front of the room at the start of the activity, holding up various tools and explaining what they were: seam roller, thread snipper, rotary fabric cutter. Rahim also doesn't get to spend a lot of time with her grandchildren because they don't live close. "It is heartwarming to be able to interact with those who love being around you," Rahim said. The kids have learned about kitchen safety and how to cook with a grandma's touch — such as mixing spices with water before adding them to a dish so they don't burn, or using fresh turmeric. The summer camp was held in partnership with the Golden Connections Club, started by high school student Leena Albinali last year to foster interactions between teens and elders. The 14-year-old lives with her grandma but realized other students didn't have the same opportunity to spend as much time with their grandparents. She also learned about ageism and other challenges faced by senior adults in one of her classes. At monthly lunches, they invite seniors to the school and discuss topics where both groups can learn from each other, Albinali said. "They treat us like we're their grandchildren," she said. The teens share what they know aboutartificial intelligenceand its impact on their lives, and the elders share life stories and advice. One of the most important things they've shared with her is to live in the moment, something that's taken on new meaning for her. "The people we have right now, they're not going to be with us forever," she said.

Associates of suspect in killings of abandoned Tennessee baby's relatives arrested, authorities sayNew Foto - Associates of suspect in killings of abandoned Tennessee baby's relatives arrested, authorities say

The man authorities allege killed four relatives of a Tennessee baby found abandoned alive remains at large but two other men have been arrested and charged with helping the suspect after the crime, authoritiesannounced Saturday evening. Tanaka Brown, 29, whom investigators described as an associate of Austin Robert Drummond, 28, was arrested Friday and has been charged with being an accessory after the fact to first-degree murder and tampering with evidence, according to theTennessee Bureau of Investigation. Giovante Thomas, 29, has also been charged with accessory after the fact to first-degree murder,TBI said. The bureau did not specify what evidence led to the charges against Brown and Thomas. Brown was booked into the Lake County Jail. Thomas was already being held on an unrelated charge in Madison County, Tennessee, and will be transferred to Lake County to be arraigned, officials said. It is unclear if Brown or Thomas have legal representation. Meanwhile, investigators are continuing their search for Drummond in connection with the deaths of James M. Wilson, 21; Adrianna Williams, 20; Cortney Rose, 38; and Braydon Williams, 15, whose bodies were found Tuesday in Tiptonville, a town in northwest Tennessee's Lake County,the TBI said. The four were found dead hours after the baby daughter of Wilson and Adrianna Williams was found abandoned Tuesday afternoon in a car seat in a "random" front yard near the Dyer County community of Tigrett, nearly a 40-mile drive southeast of Tiptonville,authorities had said. The vehicle Drummond was believed to be driving, a white 2016 Audi, was found unoccupied in Jackson, Tennessee, and has been recovered by authorities, theTBI said Friday. Jackson is about 45 miles southeast of Tigrett. A second vehicle sought in the hunt for Drummond, a 1988 white Ford pickup truck with a red stripe, has been located in Dyer County, theTBI said Saturday. The TBI hasn't said what led it to name Drummond as a suspect, or whether investigators know of a motive in the killings or why the baby was abandoned a county away from where the bodies were found. Rose was the baby's maternal grandmother, and Braydon Williams was the baby's maternal uncle, according to Danny Goodman, district attorney for Dyer and Lake counties. "The victims were all from Dyer County, and we suspect the person that killed them knew all of them," Goodman, who also confirmed Wilson and Adrianna Williams were the baby's parents, told CNN Thursday. Warrants for Drummond have been issued charging him with four counts of first-degree murder, one count of aggravated kidnapping, four counts of felon in possession of a firearm and one count of possession of a firearm during the commission of a dangerous felony, the TBI said. Drummond is believed to still be in the area and should be considered dangerous, authorities said at a Friday news conference, urging the public not to engage with him if he is spotted, and instead call 911 for assistance. "We do need the community to be very careful, we do not need them to try to approach this person," said David Rausch, director of the TBI. Drummond was previously convicted of aggravated robbery for robbing a gas station in Jackson, Tennessee, with a gun in 2013, court records show. He was sentenced to 10 years in prison for that conviction and was released in September 2024, records show. The US Marshals Service and TBIannounceda joint $15,000 reward Thursday for any information leading to Drummond's arrest. He is 5 feet 10 inches tall, weighs 190 pounds, and has brown hair, blue eyes and a goatee, according to the TBI. The investigation began Tuesday afternoon when the baby was found in a car seat in a front yard near Tigrett, theDyer County Sheriff's Officesaid. Investigators, spurred by a 911 caller who saw the child, were checking reports that a "dark-colored minivan or a white mid-size SUV" had left the baby there, thesheriff's officesaid; the heat index was 116 degrees. The baby girl is approximately 7 months old, Goodman said. Hours after the baby's abandonment, the sheriff's office announcedfour people – later identified as the baby's relatives – were found deadin Tiptonville. The bodies were found Tuesday along Tiptonville's Carrington Road, the TBI said without elaborating. The TBI, when CNN contacted it with questions about the investigation, referred only to its news releases. The releases do not detail how the four were killed, how they were found, whether investigators know of a motive, or who may have left the baby in the yard near Tigrett. "This is a deeply saddening day for our community," Dyer County Sheriff Jeff Boxsaidin a Facebook post Tuesday. "We are committed to uncovering the truth and ensuring justice is served." Nearly a dozen agencies are working on the case, including the FBI and a US Marshals Service fugitive task force, the TBI said. This story has been updated with additional information.
