Paisley man avoids jail after making AI-generated child abuse images
Sick Risto Bergman admitted making indecent photographs or pseudo-photographs of children in his former Paisley flat. A telecoms worker from Paisley has avoided jail after creating and storing AI-generated images of child sex abuse. Risto Bergman, who moved to Scotland from his native Finland, was found to have the illegal images on a computer at his former flat in town's Love Street in 2023. The images were created using a legitimate artificial intelligence app and were so realistic that they could be taken for authentic photographs. Bergman had used sexually descriptive search terms in the direction of the app's function. AI then generated the distressing images by drawing upon a 'digital library': hundreds of pictures of real child abuse which had been previously shared online by paedophiles. Images discovered on a computer storage unit found in Bergman's Paisley flat included some described as Category A – depicting the most extreme type of child sexual abuse. At Paisley Sheriff Court last month, Bergman, who now lives in Argyll and Bute, admitted making indecent photographs or pseudo-photographs of children. On Monday, Sheriff Sukhwinder Gill made him subject to an 18-month Community Payback Order during which time he will be closely monitored and supervised by the social work department. His name was added to the Sex Offenders Register. Procurator Fiscal for North Strathclyde, David Bernard, said Bergman had created illegal material that both exploited children and perpetuated abuse. He said: 'This is by no means a victimless crime. Bergman's depraved actions effectively encouraged those who abuse children to continue their activities. 'Artificial Intelligence apps draw upon online images of real children being subjected to sexual abuse. Behind every AI generated 'pseudo-photograph' of abuse are real-life child victims. 'Bergman made himself a participant in that process. 'Our prosecutors will use every tool we have to prevent children being exploited or exposed to danger. 'COPFS welcomes this conviction. We would encourage anyone with information on similar offending to come forward, report it and help us seek justice.'

Bills Game Labeled Top Primetime Matchup of 2025
The Buffalo Bills have plenty of great matchups schedule across the 2025 season. A rematch of last season's AFC Title game, a showdown with the defending Super Bowl champions, and plenty of other playoff contenders are slated to face off against Buffalo. The top game for fans, though, may be the very first of the season. Advertisement While Buffalo is expected to take part in five Primetime games, one of the bigger matchups to watch will come when they take on the Baltimore Ravens to open the 2025 season on Sunday Night Football. According to NFL media's digital content editor Jeremy Bergman, that first game will be the best battle on Sunday Night Football this year. "Sunday Night Football starts with a bang this year, with a rematch of last year's down-to-the-wire Divisional Round duel between the NFL's top two MVP contenders," Bergman said. "That Ravens-Bills instant classic was hyped to the extreme even before kickoff, with Lamar Jackson and Josh Allen getting to play out their year-long battle for MVP on the field, with a trip to Arrowhead and the AFC title game on the line." Buffalo defeated Baltimore in the divisional round of the playoffs last season by a 27-25 final score. They were aided by a drop and key fumble from Ravens star tight end Mark Andrews. Advertisement Baltimore certainly wants their revenge from that heartbreaking playoff loss. And the Bills get a chance to show they are still the top dog in the conference outside of Kansas City.

Henry Schein Reports First Quarter 2025 Financial Results
MELVILLE, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Henry Schein, Inc. (Nasdaq: HSIC), the world's largest provider of health care solutions to office-based dental and medical practitioners, today reported financial results for the first quarter ended March 29, 2025. 'We are pleased with our first quarter financial results as well as the momentum we are seeing heading into the second quarter and remain confident in the fundamentals of our business,' said Stanley M. Bergman. Share 'We are pleased with our first quarter financial results as well as the momentum we are seeing heading into the second quarter and remain confident in the fundamentals of our business,' said Stanley M. Bergman, Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of Henry Schein. 'We are advancing our BOLD+1 Strategic Plan, which has been refreshed for 2025 to 2027, with our team focused on growing the distribution business through increasing operational efficiency and enhancing customer experience, growing our dental and medical specialty businesses and corporate brand products, and further developing our digital footprint and digital solutions. We remain committed to our long-term financial goal of high-single-digit to low-double-digit earnings growth by continuing to successfully execute against this strategy,' Mr. Bergman added. First Quarter 2025 Financial Results Total net sales for the quarter were $3.2 billion: Constant currency total net sales increased 1.4% compared with the first quarter of 2024. Excluding the impact of personal protective equipment (PPE) and COVID test kits, constant currency sales growth was 2.0%. As-reported total net sales decreased 0.1% due to a stronger U.S. dollar versus the first quarter of last year. Global Distribution and Value-Added Services sales for the quarter increased 0.8% in constant currencies compared with the first quarter of 2024, and increased 1.5% excluding the impact of PPE and COVID test kits. As-reported sales decreased 0.7%. The main components include: Global Dental Distribution merchandise sales for the quarter increased 0.4% in constant currencies compared with the first quarter of 2024, and increased 0.9% excluding the impact of PPE and COVID test kits. Monthly sales growth accelerated throughout the quarter after a slow start in January primarily as a result of weather-related events in the U.S. As-reported sales decreased 2.1%. Global Dental Distribution equipment sales for the quarter decreased 2.4% in constant currencies compared with the first quarter of 2024. Sales growth was impacted by a deferral of sales from the fourth quarter of 2023 to the first quarter of 2024, resulting in a more difficult year-over-year comparison. Adjusting for this, global dental equipment sales growth in constant currencies was approximately flat to prior year. As-reported sales decreased 4.5%. Global Medical Distribution sales for the quarter increased 3.0% in constant currencies compared with the first quarter of 2024, and increased 4.4% excluding the impact of PPE and COVID test kits, reflecting increased patient traffic to physician offices, strong growth in our home solutions business and growth from acquisitions. As-reported sales increased 2.9%. Global Specialty Products sales for the quarter increased 4.3% in constant currencies compared with the first quarter of 2024, reflecting continued growth in implant and biomaterial sales and acquisition growth. As-reported sales increased 2.0%. Global Technology sales for the quarter increased 3.4% in constant currencies compared with the first quarter of 2024. Strong sales growth in practice management systems, including Dentrix Ascend and Dentally cloud-based solutions, as well as in revenue cycle management products, was partially offset by lower sales of certain legacy products that are being sunset. As-reported sales increased 2.9%. First-quarter sales growth is detailed in Exhibit A 1. GAAP net income 2 for the quarter was $110 million, or $0.88 per diluted share 4, and compares with first-quarter 2024 GAAP net income of $93 million, or $0.72 per diluted share. Non-GAAP net income 2 for the quarter was $143 million, or $1.15 per diluted share 4, and compares with first-quarter 2024 non-GAAP net income of $143 million, or $1.10 per diluted share. Adjusted EBITDA 3 for the quarter was $259 million and compares with first-quarter 2024 Adjusted EBITDA of $255 million. Restructuring Plan During the first quarter of 2025, the Company recorded $25 million in restructuring costs and expects to achieve annual run-rate savings at the high end of its $75 million to $100 million goal by the end of 2025. Share Repurchases During the first quarter of 2025, the Company repurchased approximately 2.3 million shares of its common stock at an average price of $71.58 per share, for a total of $161 million. The impact of these share repurchases on first-quarter diluted EPS was immaterial. At the end of the quarter, Henry Schein had $718 million authorized and available for future stock repurchases. 2025 Financial Guidance Henry Schein today maintained its financial guidance for 2025. Guidance is for current continuing operations as well as acquisitions that have closed and does not include the impact of restructuring and integration expenses, amortization expense of acquired intangible assets, the insurance claim recovery associated with the cybersecurity incident and costs associated with shareholder advisory matters. This guidance also assumes that foreign currency exchange rates remain generally consistent with current levels and that additional tariffs will not be introduced. 2025 non-GAAP diluted EPS attributable to Henry Schein, Inc. is unchanged and is expected to be $4.80 to $4.94, reflecting growth of 1% to 4% compared with 2024 non-GAAP diluted EPS of $4.74. 2025 total sales growth is unchanged and is expected to be approximately 2% to 4% over 2024. 2025 Adjusted EBITDA 3 growth is unchanged and is expected to increase mid-single digits compared with 2024. Adjustments to 2025 GAAP Net Income and Diluted EPS The Company is providing guidance for 2025 diluted EPS on a non-GAAP basis and for 2025 Adjusted EBITDA, as noted above. The Company is not providing a reconciliation of its 2025 non-GAAP diluted EPS guidance to its projected 2025 diluted EPS prepared on a GAAP basis, or its 2025 Adjusted EBITDA guidance to net income prepared on a GAAP basis. This is because the Company is unable to provide without unreasonable effort an estimate of restructuring costs related to an ongoing initiative to drive operating efficiencies, including the corresponding tax effect, which will be included in the Company's 2025 diluted EPS and net income, prepared on a GAAP basis. The inability to provide this reconciliation is due to the uncertainty and inherent difficulty of predicting the occurrence, magnitude, financial impact and timing of related costs. Management does not believe these items are representative of the Company's underlying business performance. For the same reasons, the Company is unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information, which could be material to future results. First-Quarter 2025 Conference Call Webcast The Company will hold a conference call to discuss first-quarter 2025 financial results today, beginning at 8:00 a.m. Eastern time. Individual investors are invited to listen to the conference call through Henry Schein's website by visiting In addition, a replay will be available beginning shortly after the call has ended for a period of one week.

Accordingly, any forward-looking statements contained herein should not be relied upon as a prediction of actual results. We undertake no duty and have no obligation to update forward-looking statements except as required by law. Included within the press release are non-GAAP financial measures that supplement the Company's Consolidated Statements of Income prepared under generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). These non-GAAP financial measures adjust the Company's actual results prepared under GAAP to exclude certain items. In the schedule attached to the press release, the non-GAAP measures have been reconciled to and should be considered together with the Consolidated Statements of Income. Management believes that non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with useful supplemental information about the financial performance of our business, enable comparison of financial results between periods where certain items may vary independent of business performance and allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in operating our business. The impact of certain items that are excluded include integration and restructuring costs, and amortization of acquisition-related assets, because the amount and timing of such charges are significantly impacted by the timing, size, number and nature of the acquisitions we consummate and occur on an unpredictable basis. These non-GAAP financial measures are presented solely for informational and comparative purposes and should not be regarded as a replacement for corresponding, similarly captioned, GAAP measures. 1 See Exhibit A for details of sales growth. Internal sales growth is calculated from total net sales using constant foreign currency exchange rates and excludes sales from acquisitions. 2 See Exhibit B for a reconciliation of GAAP net income and diluted EPS to non-GAAP net income and diluted EPS. 3 See Exhibit C for a reconciliation of GAAP net income to Adjusted EBITDA. 4 References to diluted EPS refer to diluted EPS attributable to Henry Schein, Inc.
