SCOTT DETROW, HOST:
Take a moment and think about the last thing you cooked. How much do you think the carrot in that recipe cost? And what about those three cups of vegetable broth? Beth Moncel could actually answer that question. She's the founder of budgetbytes.com, a recipe website for folks with small budgets. When she studied nutritional science in college, she learned a costing method that restaurants and cafeterias use, and you can use it at home, too.
BETH MONCEL: I suggest everyone try costing at least once because it's so eye-opening. It really does make you rethink the way you look at all of the ingredients that you're buying.
DETROW: Marielle Segarra, the host of NPR's Life Kit, talked to Moncel recently, and she is going to share some more about that technique, along with other tips for how to spend less on groceries.
MARIELLE SEGARRA, BYLINE: This technique, costing, means calculating the per-service cost of a recipe. So let's say you are making lentil bolognese. That's a recipe on Moncel's website. One ingredient is a carrot. You'd figure out the price of that carrot, add it to the cost of all the other ingredients in the recipe and then...
MONCEL: Divide it by the number of servings so you know how much each of your meals is costing.
SEGARRA: The lentil bolognese costs $1.40 per serving. Moncel says when you do this, you start to notice patterns, like some of the components are way cheaper than others. One carrot is $0.15. One cup of red lentils - $0.67. Half a cup of walnuts - $1.07. Moncel says once you know these things, you can tweak the ratios in your recipes to make them cheaper - like if she's making chili with ground beef.
MONCEL: So something that I like to do is reduce that ground beef by half, so I'm still getting that beefy flavor and that satisfying mouthfeel of, you know, actually eating beef. But then I bulk up the recipe with extra beans, maybe some lentils or maybe even some extra vegetables if I have them.
SEGARRA: Some other foods that tend to be cheap and substantive.
MONCEL: My favorite is cabbage. Cabbage is so versatile because it can go with so many different flavors, and there's a lot of different ways you can prepare it. And it's so filling. Don't forget about potatoes, onions, carrots. Even broccoli sometimes can be pretty inexpensive.
SEGARRA: On the flip side, ingredients that tend to be more expensive are meat, cheese, other dairy products and nuts. Another way to lower your monthly grocery bill is to make sure you're not wasting food. Moncel relies heavily on her freezer.
MONCEL: I often freeze leftover cheese. Leftover bread products freeze really well.
SEGARRA: If you can't freeze a leftover ingredient, try incorporating it into your menu for the next few days. Now, if you're one of those people who puts stuff in the freezer and then forgets that it's in there...
MONCEL: One way to stay on top of that is you can actually keep a list magnetized to the front of your freezer. And every time you put, like, a leftover ingredient in the freezer, you know, just write it down. Write the date on it. And then if you use it, cross it off your list.
SEGARRA: In terms of the actual grocery shopping, Moncel looks at circulars online before she heads to the store. She does that while she's making a meal plan so she can work in ingredients that are on sale. She says keep in mind, it's not always cheaper to buy in bulk. Also, think about whether you'll use that huge bag of flour before it goes bad. Lastly, if you're having a hard time paying for groceries, she suggests that you look up food banks in your area.
MONCEL: I think it's a really great resource that is often overlooked, or people think food banks are for people who only have no food. But really, it's like a bridge to help people through these tough times.
SEGARRA: Maybe you just need a couple of things to get you to your next paycheck. For NPR News, I'm Marielle Segarra. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.

SCOTT DETROW, HOST:
The popular Perseid meteor shower is underway and it'll reach its peak in a couple of weeks. Sky watchers should be able to see. Bright streaks of light and even fireballs. NPR's Nell Greenfieldboyce has these tips for how to catch the celestial fireworks.
NELL GREENFIELDBOYCE, BYLINE: The Perseids happen every summer when the Earth plows through a cloud of debris associated with a comet. The bits of comet stuff are tiny. They can be like a grain of sand, but when they hit the atmosphere at high speeds...
MICHELLE NICHOLS: Friction causes that stuff to heat up, and it causes the air around it to glow.
GREENFIELDBOYCE: Michelle Nichols is director of public observing with the Adler Planetarium in Chicago. She says this year, the Perseids should put on a good show.
NICHOLS: Mainly because the moon isn't going to interfere.
GREENFIELDBOYCE: The moon will be just a sliver, so skies should be nice and dark when the shower reaches its peak on the night of August 12 and into the early morning hours of August 13. But you don't have to wait for the peak. The Perseids and other minor showers are already sprinkling the sky with meteors.
ROBERT LUNSFORD: I was out this morning. I probably saw about five in two hours.
GREENFIELDBOYCE: Robert Lunsford works with the American Meteor Society. He says all you have to do is go outside, sit in a nice chair, get comfortable, look about halfway up the sky and give your eyes at least 30 minutes to adapt to the darkness.
LUNSFORD: Sometimes you'll see fireballs of different colors that leave a trail in the sky for up to a minute or so, and it's very cool.
GREENFIELDBOYCE: The chance of seeing fireballs is also a big draw for Jackie Faherty. She's an astronomer at New York City's Hayden Planetarium.
JACKIE FAHERTY: One can come that will shake you to your core. It, like, scares you.
GREENFIELDBOYCE: She says the main thing you need to bring to a meteor shower is patience.
FAHERTY: You cannot just be out there for 10 minutes. You have to commit to being there.
GREENFIELDBOYCE: Because meteors don't come at a steady pace. Some hours will have hardly any, and then a whole slew will come.
FAHERTY: This is not about a quick, you know, awesome glance up, and you see it, and you're done. You have to dedicate, and really, 45 minutes to an hour is my recommended minimum.
GREENFIELDBOYCE: She says two hours is way better.
FAHERTY: Get a glass of wine or a bottle. Sit out there for a while. Give the sky a chance to entertain you.
GREENFIELDBOYCE: The Perseids will last until the end of August. The very best views will come in places away from city lights, assuming the skies are clear. If it's cloudy, just try another night. Nell Greenfieldboyce, NPR News. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.

SCOTT DETROW, HOST:
The list of charges against former President Donald Trump keeps growing. On Thursday, federal prosecutors in Florida added new felony charges against Trump and two of his employees at Mar-a-Lago. Trump and two others are now charged with seeking to delete key security footage at a moment when the investigation into Trump's alleged possession of classified documents grew more serious. My good friends at the NPR Politics Podcast talked through what it all means. Justice correspondent Carrie Johnson began the conversation with Susan Davis and Domenico Montanaro by pointing out that these latest charges happened at a moment when she and other reporters were waiting on an entirely different potential indictment of Trump.
CARRIE JOHNSON, BYLINE: So while a bunch of us were sitting in the federal courthouse in D.C. waiting for something to happen with respect to the January 6 grand jury, instead, the activity was happening in South Florida again. Donald Trump has now been charged with a total of 40 federal criminal offenses...
DOMENICO MONTANARO, BYLINE: Wow.
JOHNSON: ...In South Florida in connection with the hoarding - alleged hoarding of documents at his Mar-a-Lago resort. And there are two elements to this superseding indictment, two new facets here.
The first is that Trump has been charged with another count of willful retention of information related to the national defense. This seems to be about a military presentation regarding Iran that Trump was allegedly waving around to aides at Bedminster, his New Jersey golf club, that was mentioned in the earlier indictment. And the prosecution says they now have these papers. And the reason why this is important is because they also have an audiotape of someone at that meeting of Trump allegedly saying, you know, this is a secret, and I could have declassified it when I was president, but I didn't. And so it's still a secret. And it could be powerful evidence of his state of mind, really.
SUSAN DAVIS, BYLINE: And, Carrie, what is the other component to this?
JOHNSON: The other component is that there are new obstruction of justice charges here against former President Trump, his valet, Walt Nauta, and a third Mar-a-Lago employee, Carlos De Oliveira. The allegation here is that after the FBI and the Justice Department issued a subpoena for security footage of Mar-a-Lago, Trump, Nauta and this third man, Carlos De Oliveira, cooked up a plot to try to delete the security footage to keep it out of the hands of the FBI. And there's some allegation about De Oliveira telling another Mar-a-Lago employee, the boss really wants this done. And this is hard stuff. This is hard stuff, if it's true, for a jury to hear in a case that's so important about national security.
DAVIS: And is it unusual in a case like this for having additional charges brought, especially in such a high-profile investigation?
JOHNSON: It's not super unusual. Prosecutors often will sift through their evidence and realize there's a bit more here. We did know already that some additional Mar-a-Lago employees were under government scrutiny. Now a third person has been charged. It's not clear to me why this delay. We do know the prosecutors had said in open court that they were having a hard time getting into Walt Nauta's phone. And perhaps that was really one of the reasons for these additional charges now.
DAVIS: Domenico, has there been any response from former President Trump?
MONTANARO: Well, you can imagine Trump's not happy. And he's, you know, again, blasting the Justice Department, blasting President Biden, blaming him for this and blasting the special counsel, saying that this is just another attempt to derail his presidential campaign. Of course, we're stuck in this situation where, you know, if he's running for president, he's saying, don't prosecute him. But when he was president, the Justice Department didn't want to prosecute him because of their protocols. So clearly, he's trying to use this as a shield, his run for president, to say you really shouldn't be prosecuting me, and this is just all political.
DAVIS: Speaking of political, Domenico, he is still the front-runner for the Republican nomination. And we have new polling out from the NPR/PBS NewsHour/Marist poll.
MONTANARO: Yeah, it's actually brand new. We just got this in. We just got out of the field. And it shows that Republicans are, you know, softening a little bit in their support for Trump overall. But he's still the big player. You know, when we asked about whether or not he's done anything wrong or if he's done something illegal or just something unethical, 51% of people overall said that he, they believe, has done something illegal. Democrats have gone up six points in thinking that since June. Not surprising there.
But when you look on the Republican side, you know, back in June, 50% said that he had done nothing wrong. Now it's down to 41%. You know, that's starting to get toward the outside portion of the margin of error. So that's a little bit of significant movement there. And when we asked about whether or not they want Trump to be the nominee, last month, it was almost two-thirds who said that. Sixty-four percent of Republicans said that they wanted Trump to be the nominee. I mean, he's down six points now to 58%. Now, could these numbers jump back up? Could they change based on how Trump spins some of this? Sure. But we may be seeing a little bit of a pylon effect.
DAVIS: You know, it is a fascinating dynamic because we continue to talk about the Republican primary and how he's still very strong among the base. But these are also an indication that if he were to be a general election nominee, you know, understatement - this is a tremendous amount of political baggage to be bringing into a national election.
MONTANARO: Huge amount of baggage and none of it's popular with independents. It's really the swing group there. And I think we're going to have to watch the fact that, you know, Trump hasn't been able to get over 46% in a general election. Right now, it looks like he is really moving toward being the nominee. Given that Ron DeSantis, the Florida governor, his operation has seemed to kind of take a nosedive in some respects, laying off a bunch of staffers and all of that. But, you know, when it comes to a general election, he's had a significantly difficult time, Trump, in getting above 46%. We're going to have to watch those third parties and see, with all this disaffection, if people decide to go to someone else.
DAVIS: Carrie, this is significant news in the classified documents case, but this was not the indictment news we were expecting this week. We still are expecting to hear likely within days, news about the January 6 investigation.
JOHNSON: Yeah. That's right. Lawyers for former President Trump appeared at the special counsel Jack Smith's office, and presumably to try to convince them not to move forward with an indictment related to Trump's alleged efforts to overturn the 2020 election. Trump called that a productive meeting. We do not have a readout from the special counsel. The grand jury here in D.C. may be back next week, and I'll be here, too, watching and waiting.
DAVIS: Domenico, I personally am very interested to see what the impact of a possible January 6 indictment is, because I think the potential allegations in that case for a lot of voters are in a completely different realm from what's happening in New York about covering up hush-money payments to cover up an extramarital affair, even the classified documents, you know, there's a dispute over whether he could keep them or not. January 6 is about subverting an election. It's about, you know, trying to overturn an election fraudulently trying to overturn election. Voters might see that very differently than these other investigations.
MONTANARO: Yeah. You know, we've pulled on this previously because I was really interested to see if Trump being convicted would change anything with Republicans, and we really didn't see much change. You still had, you know, over 60% of Republicans saying that they wanted Trump to be the nominee if he was convicted of a crime. Now, this was a couple of months ago when this was asked. But in reality, if he is actually convicted of something by a jury of his peers and there are still more pending charges and maybe convicted of something else, do these numbers really start to change and shift? He does have a significant, you know, stronghold on a on a solid share of the Republican Party.
But, you know, right now, the biggest problem in the Republican primary for any alternatives is no one seems to be emerging. But, you know, I really tell people, don't pay much attention when it comes to these horse race numbers in national polls because these - you know, primaries are not decided nationally. They're decided in the early states. And we're starting to see a difference in the polling in places like Iowa and New Hampshire as compared to what we're seeing overall nationally. Trump's lead is much, much smaller in the early states.

Originally published July 28 onKTVB.COM.The man accused of murdering a couple at their hotel in New Meadows in October of 2022 has pleaded guilty as part of an agreement, the Adams County prosecutor said Friday.
John Cody Hart, 29, was charged last year with two counts of first-degree murder in the killings of Rory and Sara Mehen, the owners of the Hartland Inn.
As a result of pleading guilty to the charges, prosecutors have decided to withdraw their intent to seek the death penalty against Hart, which they filed on Oct. 4, 2022.
They will now recommend life in prison instead.
Hart’s sentencing is set for the fall.
According to an affidavit from the Adams County Sheriff’s Office, Hart was rummaging through rooms at the Hartland Inn, where he was also staying that day. He was stealing socks when he was told to leave by a police officer.

Hart went back to his room, the affidavit says, and then to the front counter where he is said to have shot the Mehens.
The New Meadows community was devastated by the murder of the couple.
“If I could tell Rory and Sara anything, it’s just how much they’ll be missed by everybody. They were the community,” Matt Whitlock, a friend of the Mehens said. “We’re at a loss now.” | https://www.idahopress.com/news/crime_courts/new-meadows-murder-suspect-pleads-guilty/article_eaf9f928-2d86-11ee-833f-17c17f9effe5.html | 2023-07-30T02:10:08 | 1 | https://www.idahopress.com/news/crime_courts/new-meadows-murder-suspect-pleads-guilty/article_eaf9f928-2d86-11ee-833f-17c17f9effe5.html |

The numbers are starting to come up for the Ridgevue football program in year two under coach Sean Impomeni.
A year after taking around 40-50 Warhawks to football camps, Impomeni said Ridgevue took about 80 kids this summer, including 50 alone who are slated to be varsity players. For a program that has never had much success before, just 12 wins un seven seasons, those numbers are encouraging to Impomeni.
“We just got to keep getting better every day,” Impomeni said. “The kids have been working hard this summer. There’s been a lot of buy in. We’re going to be pretty young, we’re going to be starting a lot of sophomores this year. But we got to focus on us, not worry about everyone else.”
While the varsity team picked up just one win a season ago, there were a lot of other promising results within the program. Last year’s junior varsity team finished with a 4-4 record, the first team on any level in Ridgevue’s history to not finish with a losing record.
For the Warhawks, who will likely be on the move to the 5A level in the next classification cycle, which begins in the 2024-25 school year, the potential that the team has is huge.
“Winning is winning and once you get a taste of that, you want more of it,” Impomeni said. “Maybe the things we’re teaching and coaching them to do, they’re going to buy into it a little bit more because they see that the work has led to success that they haven’t had before.”
Senior Gavin Peterson, who was the junior varsity quarterback last year, will take over under center at varsity this year. Impomeni said that while Peterson isn’t the prototypical quarterback, his competitiveness gives him the edge. Sophomore Isaac Jones is more the prototypical quarterback, but as of right now Peterson has the job.
But the coach said it would be ideal if both could be on the field at the same time, as Peterson can also be a productive wide receiver for the Warhawks. With many question marks at who else can be wide receiver, having that ability would be huge.
At running back will be junior Cash McKie, one of three returning starters for the Warhawks on offense. Impomeni said that McKie’s football instincts are top-notch and he’s worked to get both bigger and stronger over the offseason.

McKie will be running behind two starters on the left side of the offensive line in left guard Caleb D’Angelo at left guard and left tackle Parker Latham. Latham is moving to the tackle spot after playing center last year. Teague Danilson will take over at center with Corbin Hesse, Saul Perez, Colby Swan and Beau Bass battling for spots on the right side of the line.
While there is more experience on the left side of the ball, Impomeni said he thinks the Warhawks will be able to effectively run to the right side, as well.
“We’re going to have to take that right side, that could be pretty good as well, but just younger,” Impomeni said. “They didn’t have a lot of varsity experience last year. We’re going to see what practice is like. We went to camp and we were able to run to both the right and left effectively, it just depends on where we’re at. But obviously the strength of our offensive line right now is on the left side.”
Defensively, Impomeni said the line is where the biggest question mark is right now.
“We’re kind of going back to step one and starting with the basics,” the coach said. “We have to get better at tackling and running to the football. We’re going to keep it as simple as possible, because we got a lot of younger dudes on defense.”
Josh Torres, Ryland Deibner and Phil D’Angelo are all players who could start on that unit.
At linebacker, the Warhawks will also be young, with juniors Noah Peterson and McKie and sophomore Trace Farrell all in the mix.
Gavin Peterson will play in the defensive backfield, while seniors Michael Kabika and Izaiah Stewart-Kasper will also start there. | https://www.idahopress.com/sports/highschool/football/prep-football-previews-ridgevue-hopes-jv-success-can-transfer-to-varsity/article_cf514a36-2e4a-11ee-ae65-cf4ea134bca1.html | 2023-07-30T02:10:10 | 1 | https://www.idahopress.com/sports/highschool/football/prep-football-previews-ridgevue-hopes-jv-success-can-transfer-to-varsity/article_cf514a36-2e4a-11ee-ae65-cf4ea134bca1.html |
OSHKOSH, Wis. — Two people were killed and two others injured Saturday in a midair collision at an airport in Wisconsin.
A Rotorway 162F helicopter and an ELA Eclipse 10 gyrocopter collided shortly after noon local time at Wittman Regional Airport in Oshkosh, authorities said. The aircraft belonged to individuals attending the Experimental Aircraft Association's annual fly-in convention in Oshkosh but were not involved in the air show, a statement from the organization said.
The association, citing the Winnebago County Sheriff's Office, said two people were killed and two injured. The injured were taken to a local hospital and were in stable condition.
The association said further information would be released as additional details are confirmed. The National Transportation Safety Board is investigating the crash.
Separately, a plane earlier Saturday crashed into Lake Winnebago near Oshkosh, killing two people, according to the sheriff's office. The NTSB is also investigating that case, which involved a single-engine North American T-6 aircraft.

Originally published on July 26 on KTVB.COMBOISE — When you think of Boise, what comes to mind?
The Depot? The Capitol? Maybe The Blue? They are all parts of the community that tie the city together.
Over the years something else has dug into the complexion of Boise, spreading like a virus. It comes from the wrong side of the tracks.
“Goatheads are a problem for everyone,” said Martha Brabec, an ecologist with the City of Boise Parks and Recreation.
Goatheads. It’s a real “if you know, you know” kind of thing — an invasive species that is classified as a weed, with spiny, prickly heads that can puncture your bike tires and get stuck in your shoes.
“They’re an invasive species that everybody has a personal story associated with. A lot of other invasive species may not impact our everyday lives in ways that are tangible to us. But, everyone has a personal story associated with a goat head, and the hatred of them is real,” Brabec said.
The hatred for them in the community is so real, that scientists at Boise State are working to eradicate goatheads from the City of Boise all together. They worked on this for several years: a hot spot map of all 60 miles of pathways throughout the City of Boise. The BSU team marked the location of every goathead plant they found with a GPS — but that’s only half the battle.
“I can’t believe how much time I spend thinking about it,” Brabec said.
Brabec is passionate about her work — she leads a volunteer team every Wednesday for goathead extraction. Wednesday the team took on a bike path in.
“This is a hotspot on the goathead hotspot map developed by Boise State University. By removing goatheads here, we can reduce the spread of goatheads to other locations,” Brabec said.
These pesky little pricks have popped bike tires, maimed dog paws and created overgrown, threatening habitats.
Wouldn’t it be nice if they were an evil that was eradicated? Can it be done?
“There is a belief that we can get to that place where Boise is goathead free. I don’t know how long it’s going to take, but I sincerely feel with the community behind this effort, we can do it,” Brabec said.
On the frontlines of the battle, “Weed Warriors” are on the ground with the tools of their trade.

The strategy is simple. Dig the little suckers out.
You’ll regularly find Dianne Berning digging in with the Weed Warriors. For Berning, the battle is personal.
The sweet flowers on the plant have an ugly side, a side that dives right into tires.
“I have had several flats from goat heads, so it’s a huge motivation for me to get out and clean them up, Berning said.
She recalls, not fondly, what a tire puncture feels like.
“More of a slow leak and you get somewhere and you stop and you’re having dinner or lunch or whatever, and then you get back on your bike and you’re like, ‘Oh, it’s flat.’ So it’s kind of that disappointment. It ruins your day when you’re out riding,” Berning said.
The team works for a few hours, transforming a new spot every week. There are a lot of spots to hit. But sometimes it does feel like a game — a competition to see who can dig up the most.
“My father’s probably the worst of it. He’s always trying to beat everyone else and get more heads than everyone,” Berning said.
Even local legend “Goathead Ed” can be found all around the city fighting the good fight.
“He can’t lift anymore and he has to take breaks because he gets winded. But he would not miss being out here picking out pads every week. It means a lot to him,” Berning said.
Ed knows the landscape well. He can tell you all about the pulls this season.
“He loves that. It’s an obsession. As a bike rider, I’ve always been grateful that he’s out. I’ll call him and be like, ‘Hey, there’s a pile here’... And he’ll run right out in his car and go pick them up for us,” Berning said.
In a world that can be so divided, goatheads seem to be a unifying topic.
“A lot of people say thank you. I think once again, we can go back to the everyone has a puncture biking story. If you’re if you biked in Idaho, you’ve definitely gotten flat as a result of puncture violence. I think people are very appreciative of this work. My only suggestion would be, you can join. Anyone can pull goatheads,” Brabec said. | https://www.idahopress.com/the-wrestle-from-the-weed-group-working-to-eradicate-boise-goatheads/article_b8dcf3de-2e51-11ee-97fd-9b4ff57c629d.html | 2023-07-30T02:10:14 | 0 | https://www.idahopress.com/the-wrestle-from-the-weed-group-working-to-eradicate-boise-goatheads/article_b8dcf3de-2e51-11ee-97fd-9b4ff57c629d.html |
Zigging when everyone else zags has its risks. The New York Mets are living one unfortunate version of that right now, having shelled out for the highest payroll in MLB history.
It also has its advantages. With the standings, and thus the trade market, mostly gummed up, the Mets decided to move expensive veteran pitchers — first closer David Robertson to the Miami Marlins and now starter Max Scherzer to the Texas Rangers.
In return for a crushing fall from sky-high expectations, the Mets are hoping to accelerate their Los Angeles Dodgers-emulating goals, repeatedly invoked by multibillionaire team owner Steve Cohen. They want to become an organization that is rich in both prospect capital and cash capital.
Down to a 16.5% chance of making the 2023 postseason, Cohen and GM Billy Eppler have clearly accepted defeat on their offseason zig toward going all-in on the sort of short, immediate window that so few front offices are willing to chase. Now, instead of directing Cohen’s seemingly unlimited largesse toward that directive, they are employing it to better the club’s less pinpointed but still crucial future aspirations.
Only by paying down a significant portion of the remainder of Scherzer’s record-setting contract — almost $16 million this year and $43.3 million next year — did the Mets unlock the potential that makes the deal worthwhile.
There’s still huge incentive and intent for the Mets to field a winner in 2024 — assuming Justin Verlander sticks around past Tuesday’s trade deadline — but they are currently exchanging a portion of their over-leveraged right-now team for more fungible talent that might help them in 2024, 2025 and beyond.
The Mets drove themselves to this trade deadline moment with a faulty team, one they never intended to be stripping for parts to collect high-ceiling talent, but they deserve credit for swiftly recognizing and taking advantage of their opportunity to do so.
If you subscribe to BP you knew about Marco Vargas (at least) two weeks ago, when @jeffpaternostro said he wanted to find space for him on the Midseason 50:https://t.co/HAbNyhxqli pic.twitter.com/l4Tq3xqBiB
— The Chorker (@cdgoldstein) July 28, 2023
Over the past few days, as supposed sellers such as the Chicago Cubs and potential sellers such as the San Diego Padres have held on to their top players, the Mets have taken action. With significant emphasis on Cohen’s willingness to shell out money, the Mets have secured a group of young players that includes 18-year-old shortstop Marco Vargas, a fast-rising hitter in the Robertson deal with the sort of contact and discipline skills that have frequently portended stardom, and now Luisangel Acuña, the 21-year-old brother of Atlanta Braves star Ronald Acuña Jr., who ranks among the game’s top 50 prospects. A thrilling free-swinger with a .315 batting average, seven homers and 42 steals (!) in Double-A this year who has played shortstop and some center field, Acuña could debut as soon as 2024.
Both are likely to feature on league-wide top prospect lists this winter. Prospect rankings are not inherently important — and that might feel like a harsh comedown for Mets fans who were dreaming of World Series parades a couple of months ago — but these are the type of players that good teams covet, which does matter in the quest to reenergize those same dreams.
With the past couple of days of deals, the Mets are snapping up prized players who could help by becoming contributors themselves or by simply existing in the system.
The best young hitters are identified earlier and earlier these days, and it’s becoming more difficult to pry them loose once they make a real mark in scouting circles. Vargas and Acuña are players who, despite their youth, can have immediate value for the Mets, either by playing or by giving the front office greater freedom and ability to swing future deals. Some of the brightest recent lights to be traded as prospects — Fernando Tatis Jr., Yordan Alvarez — were pried loose only during the relative anonymity of the phase Vargas is in now.
Scherzer and Robertson are established stars, yes. They are also 39 and 38 years old, respectively. Placing some eggs in a basket rapidly approaching its expiration date is fine, necessary even, but there's a reason most MLB organizations follow the often-frustrating path of trying to keep as many future years as possible on the table. Zeroing in on a single year or two of baseball leaves you open to crushing failure.
The Mets’ plan for 2023? The initial use of Cohen’s cash? It failed. That wasn’t going to change through clinging to the main pillars for sentimentality or financial sulking. This next use — jumping to the front of the deadline market to bring Acuña, Vargas & Co. into the organization — might pay off.
For a highly leveraged, aging Mets team careening toward a total loss of a season, that shift in outlook is going to have to count as a win. | https://www.star945.com/news/national/2023-mlb-trade/ISRQV2TGWOOFWVFNTTMPE5U4UM/ | 2023-07-30T02:10:57 | 1 | https://www.star945.com/news/national/2023-mlb-trade/ISRQV2TGWOOFWVFNTTMPE5U4UM/ |
Aaron Judge is back and he didn't wait long to start doing Aaron Judge things.
In his second game since his return from a toe injury, the New York Yankees captain clubbed a two-run homer off Baltimore Orioles starting pitcher Tyler Wells on Saturday. Per Baseball Savant, the ball was hit 111.6 mph and traveled 442 feet.
It was Judge's 20th homer of the season, tying him for sixth in the AL despite missing nearly two months with that to injury.

Judge went down on June 3 when he ran into a Dodger Stadium gate to make a highlight-reel catch, tearing a ligament in his toe and leaving him with a hazy timetable to return. That day finally arrived Friday, going 0-for-1 with three walks against the Orioles.
The Yankees were in dire need of Judge's return given that they entered Saturday with a record of 54-49, nine games back from the Orioles for first place in the AL East and 3.5 games back from the final AL wild-card spot. The Yankees, who have dealt with several other injuries, are 24-29 in games Judge doesn't play this season. | https://www.star945.com/news/national/yankees-aaron-judge/32H3XCLU5PUZZ2XZFOY2OHD5UA/ | 2023-07-30T02:11:03 | 1 | https://www.star945.com/news/national/yankees-aaron-judge/32H3XCLU5PUZZ2XZFOY2OHD5UA/ |
HURON, Ohio — A man allegedly attempting to rob a bank in Ohio found himself in the can -- twice.
According to the Huron Police Department, the suspect dropped from the ceiling over the drive-thru of the VacationLand Federal Credit Union -- and into a blue recycling bin where officers were waiting for him, WJW-TV reported.
Tristan Heidl, 27, was arrested on Wednesday and charged with breaking and entering, possession of criminal tools and safecracking, according to the television station.

Huron police received a call at 2:12 a.m. EDT on Wednesday after an alarm at the credit union was triggered, CNN reported. Police arriving at the scene heard noises from inside the roof area above the bank’s drive-thru lanes, according to the news outlet.
They also saw a blue recycling bin in the middle of one drive-thru lane, positioned beneath a roof access door, CNN reported.
The officers patiently waited, WJW reported. Then Heidl fell into the recycling bin, apparently according to his plan -- but right into the hands of police officers.
Heidl was wrestled to the ground but was not injured, according to the television station.
“In my 35-plus years in law enforcement, this is the first time I ever saw a suspect fall into a garbage can,” Huron police Chief Terry Graham said. “I am most impressed with our officers’ patience in a very difficult situation. The tactics they used, I think, substantially contributed to no one being injured and the suspect being taken into custody.”
Heidl waived his preliminary hearing on Friday and the case was bound over to the grand jury in the Erie County Common Pleas Court in Sandusky Ohio, CNN reported.
Heidl is free after posting $50,000 bail, Graham told the cable news outlet. | https://www.star945.com/news/trending/canned-man-attempting-rob-bank-falls-into-recycling-bin-during-escape/EYCZFSGX45D7PNPXQTNTLYQSEI/ | 2023-07-30T02:11:10 | 0 | https://www.star945.com/news/trending/canned-man-attempting-rob-bank-falls-into-recycling-bin-during-escape/EYCZFSGX45D7PNPXQTNTLYQSEI/ |

WILKES-BARRE, Pa. — Mark Glowinski is locked in for the New York Giants at right guard between rookie center John Michael Schmitz and second-year right tackle Evan Neal.
Neal looked thinner, quicker, and sharper as camp kicked off, and Glowinski believes that the offensive line is taking giant strides.
"As the season went along last year with Evan, the improvements he made over the weeks, and just off-season, you can tell he's putting a big emphasis on things in his game, especially things that maybe he didn't do so well, and that he's put a lot of time into when he came back. You can see the improvements that he made," said Mark Glowinski.
When you do your camps. What are you trying to instill in these children, these young football players, that you learned at a young age, but even now, nine years into the NFL, are very important to your excellence?
"Yeah, I think as listening because we have all these endless resources, especially guys, I'm going to be bringing in guys that helped me along the way. All these things, these little things that they told me that I kept in my notebook or, you know, mentally that I prepare myself each day or week or whatever it is, you know, respecting others, because when the time comes when you need something, or, you know, you need help along the way, those people can be there for you and they won't, they won't blink an eye for you. So, when I do these camps, I just try to tell them, you know, respect their teachers, respect the community, try to do whatever they can," said Glowinski.
Most people know Glowinski is an offensive lineman for the Seahawks, Colts, and now for the Giants. Bowling over defenders.
That's turned out bowling is where he actually got his first start at Chacko's Lanes in Wilkes Barre.
"Chacko's was home. It was right down the road. On Saturday mornings, I would go, my dad would take me, and then, in the afternoon, my dad would bowl there. So then I would get some practice and later in the day there, but one of the nights that my dad was bowling when I was just practicing, I had a 300, and I grew a big crowd around me because I was, I think I was in maybe ninth grade at the time. So it was cool for me being a, you know, stringy little kid out there bowling a 300, which was pretty fun as well," said Glowinski. | https://www.wnep.com/article/sports/mark-glowinski-glows-on-giants-line-gar-field-offensive-lineman-john-michael-schmitz-evan-neal/523-41daf371-d8f2-4c41-9de8-3c46d10ad66c | 2023-07-30T02:11:32 | 0 | https://www.wnep.com/article/sports/mark-glowinski-glows-on-giants-line-gar-field-offensive-lineman-john-michael-schmitz-evan-neal/523-41daf371-d8f2-4c41-9de8-3c46d10ad66c |

WASHINGTON, USA — Fires sparking throughout the state have kept fire crews busy this summer.
Officials with the state's Fire Marshal's Office believe this could be just the beginning of an extended wildfire season.
"The second half is the most challenging,” said Commissioner of Public Lands Hilary Franz. “We're heading into the most difficult we always have. And I'll tell you it's already been a very busy fire season."
It's not even August yet and the Department of Natural Resources has already had its fair share of wildfires to respond to.
"We've already had 1,000 fires to date, 80,000 acres burnt," said Franz.
The Washington Fire Marshal's Office is also reporting an early start to fire response this year, providing a helping hand to DNR crews and local fire agencies.
“Our fire season for mobilization usually starts after Father's Day, it started in May," said Gregory Baruso, the public information officer with the Fire Marshal's Office.
The Fire Marshal’s office has already responded to 150,000 burned acres throughout the state.
"But the acres are going up,” said Baruso. “When folks talk about climate change and global warming, it's here."
Franz said her biggest concern is where some of these fires are taking place. "I think one of the things that's really concerning for us is a lot of the fires we've had to date are in the west side of the state, we don't usually see that many fires this early on the west side," said Commissioner Franz.
Both agencies said they’re concerned for a potentially extended fire season. "I expect it to be a little bit warmer, we're probably going to see more still and our season doesn't stop mobilization until the first week until October, so that gives you an idea where we're at," said Baruso. | https://www.king5.com/article/news/local/wildfire/increased-fire-danger-washington-august/281-6c9ce532-ef4c-4ded-b264-9ec621d50303 | 2023-07-30T02:13:53 | 0 | https://www.king5.com/article/news/local/wildfire/increased-fire-danger-washington-august/281-6c9ce532-ef4c-4ded-b264-9ec621d50303 |
FUKUOKA, Japan — FUKUOKA, Japan (AP) — Here's why Katie Ledecky is one of the greatest freestyle swimmers in the history of the sport: She is never quite satisfied.
The 26-year-old American won the 800-meter freestyle on Saturday at the world championships to become the first swimmer to win six golds in the same event at worlds. It was also her 16th individual world title, breaking a tie with Michael Phelps for the most golds at worlds.
She also is a seven-time Olympic gold medalist and the world record holder in both the 800 and 1,500.
But that winning time — 8 minutes, 8.87 seconds, which is the seventh-quickest she'd ever swum — wasn't quite good enough in her favorite event.
"I'm just always trying to think of new ways to improve. I mean I've already got everything turning in my head right now. I kind of wanted to be better than I was tonight," she said, twirling her right hand beside her right ear, trying to stir up ideas.
"I'm pretty tough on myself," she said. "But I think I have found the balance of being tough on myself but also having that grace."
The 800 was Ledecky's second individual gold following her win in the 1,500 free on Tuesday. She also took silver in the 400 free. Li Bingjie of China took silver in 8:13.31, and Ariarne Titmus of Australia got the bronze in 8:13.59.
"It's fun to leave a meet with your favorite event, and I just wanted to leave it all in the pool," Ledecky said.
It was only the fourth gold for the United States in the seventh of eight days in the pool. Meanwhile, Australia has been piling it on with 13 golds, matching its best at the worlds. Australia won three more golds on Saturday.
The Americans lead the overall table with 31 medals (16 silver), Australia has 20 and China 13.
Kaylee McKeown of Australia made history of her own with gold in the women's 200 backstroke. McKeown's victory gave her a sweep of all three backstroke events after earlier wins in the 50 and 100. She became the first swimmer to sweep all three backstrokes at the worlds.
It all made up for her disqualification earlier in the 200 IM.
"You can't change the rules," she said. "I got ruled out. It's just the cards I was dealt with and I couldn't do much more than that. So I just had to carry myself the best I could and channel all my anger and turn a huge negative into a positive."
Regan Smith of the United States picked up the silver in 2:04.94, while Peng Xuwei of China got the bronze in 2:06.74.
Sarah Sjöström of Sweden continued her dominance with gold in the 50 butterfly. The 29-year-old won in 24.77 seconds and has now won the event five consecutive times at the worlds. The win brought Sjöström's individual medals at the worlds to 20, equaling Phelps' mark.
Sjöström also broke her own record in the 50 free, going 23.61 in a semifinal heat. Her old mark was 23.67 set in 2017.
"There are not too many secrets," Sjöström said about her longevity. "Just do the work every day, go to practice, and stay humble."
Zhang Yufei of China, who took gold in the 100 fly, claimed the silver in 25.05, while American Gretchen Walsh got the bronze in 25.46.
Japanese fan favorite Rikako Ikee finished seventh (25.78) in the 50 fly but was greeted warmly by the home crowd.
The 23-year-old Ikee won six gold medals at the 2018 Asian Games and was expected to be a favorite in the Tokyo Olympics. But she was diagnosed with leukemia in February 2019. Her comeback continues to resonate with both the Japanese public and her fellow competitors.
Cameron McEvoy of Australia led all the way to capture the gold in the 50 free in 21.06. It was his first individual gold in the worlds or Olympics.
American Jack Alexy collected his second silver of the worlds in 21.57 to go with his silver in the 100 free. Benjamin Proud of Britian, last year's world champion, took the bronze in 21.58.
Caeleb Dressel won the event at the Olympics but did not qualify for the U.S. team. McEvoy's time was quicker than Dressel's winning time in Tokyo — 21.07.
Maxime Grousset of France won gold in the 100 fly in 50.14. The 24-year-old took the early lead and held on. Josh Liendo of Canada earned the silver in 50.34, while American Dare Rose made the podium with the bronze (50.46).
Ruta Meilutyte of Lithuania equaled the world record of 29.30 in her semifinal in the 50 breaststroke.
Australia won the 4x100 mixed freestyle relay in a world record of 3:18.83. The Americans took silver in 3:20.82, with Britain getting the bronze in 3:21.68. The relay is not an Olympic event. | https://www.king5.com/article/sports/olympics/katie-ledecky-passes-michael-phelps-for-most-individual-golds-at-world-championships/281-0edcc6a7-0264-4811-98c2-5b5008f25340 | 2023-07-30T02:13:59 | 0 | https://www.king5.com/article/sports/olympics/katie-ledecky-passes-michael-phelps-for-most-individual-golds-at-world-championships/281-0edcc6a7-0264-4811-98c2-5b5008f25340 |
SWOYERSVILLE — The organizers and vendors of the Swoyersville Chicken Wing Fling weren’t sure what to expect from the inaugural event on Saturday.
They wondered would crowds turn out, would the predicted rain hold off and would vendors have enough food?
A few hours into the event — with Roosevelt Park filled with hundreds of people amid bright, sunny skies — Mayor Chris Concert declared the event a success that will be an annual tradition.
“The wing festival took flight,” Concert said. “This is what we need — something new in the area.”
A collaboration between the Swoyersville Parks and Recreation Board and a Facebook blogger for the NEPA Chicken Wing Bulletin, the event featured eight restaurants selling chicken wings and other vendors selling variations of the tasty treat, from hot wing fries to chicken wing pierogi.
The vendors entered their food in a blind taste test contest scored by a panel of five judges, which included Concert, Swoyersville Councilman Pete Cwalina, insurance agent Brianna Keeler, Swoyersville Public Works Commissioner Dave Hampton and Kingston police Sgt. Eric Keiper.
“Watching the turnout unfold was awesome. The vendors are reaping the benefits today. These are all local businesses,” Keeler said. “To me, that’s the best thing.”
Kate’s Place of Wyoming won the traditional mild, traditional hot and overall sauce categories. R Bar of Nanticoke won best boneless bites. River Grill of Plains Twp. won best dry rub. Purple Pepper Farm of Lake Winola won best non-wing food for its fritters.
R Bar won the “people’s choice” category award, voted by members of the public who attended and sampled the various vendors.
Jeff Lewis, who runs NEPA Chicken Wing Bulletin and helped organize the event, said he envisioned the chicken wing festival as Swoyersville’s version of the Pittston Tomato Festival, the Plymouth Alive Kielbasa Festival, and the Edwardsville Pierogi Festival.
“I spent all night with anxiety, hoping for a good turnout and good weather,” Lewis said.

Later, while announcing the contest winners, Lewis told the crowd and borough leaders, “Thanks for believing in us.”
Except for a brief downpour, the weather was beautiful for most of the day, even too sunny and hot for some.
Lewis said the event would be bigger and better next year thanks to the overwhelming response.
“I’m very proud. It’s been a lot of work,” Lewis said.
Purple Pepper Farm of Lake Winola sold out of its smoked wings by 3 p.m., four hours before the event ended. The business brought 120 pounds, or about 400 wings.
“We didn’t know what to expect,” said co-owner Tom Lehnert, 36, of Lake Winola
Rachael Picton, 33, of Nanticoke, attended with her 3-year-old daughter, Brynly.
“I love wings. I think it’s great. I hope they do it again,” Picton said.
While Picton sampled various wings, Brynly opted for a hot dog.
“There’s something for everyone,” Picton joked. | https://www.citizensvoice.com/news/chicken-wing-festival-takes-flight-in-swoyersville/article_ca7c926e-f52c-5a24-9e7a-40b519d5c4d6.html | 2023-07-30T02:14:04 | 0 | https://www.citizensvoice.com/news/chicken-wing-festival-takes-flight-in-swoyersville/article_ca7c926e-f52c-5a24-9e7a-40b519d5c4d6.html |
Joseph A. Kuhar, 76, a resident of Swoyersville, passed into eternal life unexpectedly Wednesday evening, July 26, 2023, in Geisinger Wyoming Valley Medical Center, Plains Twp.
His loving wife is Sandra “Sandy” Metroka Kuhar. Joe and Sandy would have celebrated their 55th wedding anniversary on Aug. 24.
Born Sept. 14, 1946, in Kingston, Joseph was one of six children born to the late John A. Kuhar and Mary Filler Kuhar.
Raised in Swoyersville, Joe was a graduate of the former West Side Central Catholic High School, Class of 1964, and the former Wilkes-Barre Business College, Class of 1966.
A veteran of the United States Army National Guard, Joe honorably served his country for six years with the 109th Field Artillery Regiment, Kingston.
Prior to his retirement, Joe was employed as a salesman for the former Master Chemical Company, Wilkes-Barre, and, in his earlier years, he was employed as the Northeast regional sales manager for the former Randustrial Corporation, Cleveland, Ohio.
Joe was a faithful Catholic and a lifelong member of Holy Trinity Church, Swoyersville, now consolidated into the Parish of St. Elizabeth Ann Seton, where he served as an usher, and as an altar boy during his youth. Always supporting his church, Joe was involved with the preparation and execution of the parish’s annual bazaar as well as various other fundraisers. During his years helping with the bazaar, he was famous for preparing the strawberry shortcakes.
An actively involved father, Joe was always there to support his precious girls. He was their softball coach when they played with the Swoyersville Softball league and served as the league president. When his daughter, Dawn, played basketball at Wyoming Valley West, he served as both president of the Girls Basketball Booster Club and as a stat keeper for the games. As his grandchildren came along, he was just as actively involved in their lives — he would move heaven and earth to spend time with them! He was their biggest fan at all their sporting events, and during the time that COVID kept children from attending school in-person, Joe stepped in to help with the homeschooling of his grandsons, Bryce and Braxtyn.
Joe epitomized the role of a loving and devoted family man. He was the greatest husband, father, grandfather, brother, uncle and friend that one could ask for. He was a friendly face to all he encountered along his life journey, and he gave of his time freely, unselfishly and without reservation — he was, without a doubt, a true gentleman!

Although Joe’s family and friends will remember him best for his kindness, generosity, loving ways and for always being impeccably dressed, his family will also remember him as being the best spelling bee study buddy; the greatest root beer float and clam dip maker; the finest pool baseball player that ever played; and the loyalist fan of the New York Yankees.
Joe was always an active man who enjoyed walking, biking and playing tennis. Two years ago, he suffered a severe stroke and subsequent brain surgery, but he proudly bounced back from this setback, continuing, for the most part, where he left off.
In addition to his parents, John and Mary Kuhar, Joseph was preceded in death by his brother, Gerald Kuhar, and his sister, Mary Anne Zedolik.
Left to cherish Joe’s memory are his wife, Sandy, and their two daughters, Robyn Caiazzo and her husband, Russell, York; and Dawn Wenzel and her husband, Ethan, Mountain Top; grandchildren, Delainy Ogurkis, Bryce Wenzel, Ella Caiazzo and Braxtyn Wenzel; brothers, John Kuhar and his wife, Carole, Shavertown; and Thomas Kuhar and his wife, Roseann, Mountain Top; sister, Elaine Pugliese and her husband, Michael, West Pittston; brother-in-law, John Zedolik, Mountain Top; sister-in-law, Joan Kuhar, Mountain Top; and numerous nieces, nephews, cousins and friends.
Relatives and friends are respectfully invited to attend the funeral which will be conducted at 9:30 a.m. Wednesday from Wroblewski Funeral Home Inc., 1442 Wyoming Ave., Forty Fort, followed by a Mass of Christian Burial to be celebrated at 10 a.m. in St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Parish, 116 Hughes St., Swoyersville, with his nephew, the Rev. Jonathan P. Kuhar, pastor of St. John Neumann and St. Paul the Cross Parishes, Scranton, officiating.
Interment with the Rite of Committal will follow in the Denison Cemetery, Swoyersville.
Family and friends are invited to attend Joe’s viewing which will be held from 5 to 8 p.m. Tuesday at the funeral home.
To share a message of condolence with Joe’s family, visit the funeral home’s website, www.wroblewskifuneralhome.com, or Facebook page.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests that memorial contributions be made in Joe’s memory to the Shriners Hospitals for Children, 2900 Rocky Point Drive, Tampa, Florida 33607, or by visiting www.shrinerschildrens.org. | https://www.citizensvoice.com/news/obituaries/joseph-a-kuhar/article_d2c18ef3-7423-5d6a-a3ba-63d028fbfcf5.html | 2023-07-30T02:14:10 | 0 | https://www.citizensvoice.com/news/obituaries/joseph-a-kuhar/article_d2c18ef3-7423-5d6a-a3ba-63d028fbfcf5.html |

Margaret B. Margalis, 94, of Wilkes-Barre, passed peacefully Wednesday, May 24, 2023, while in the care of the Partridge-Tippet Nursing Facility at Wesley Village, Jenkins Twp.
Born Aug. 1, 1928, in the Irishtown section of Plains Twp., Margaret was the only daughter of the late Andrew and Helen Krahel Monko. Margaret attended St. Joseph’s Elementary School in Hudson where her daily curriculum included subjects in Polish and English. She continued her education at Plains Memorial High School, graduating with the Class of 1946. Upon graduating, Margaret began working for a local cigar factory as a wrapper in the Parsons section of Wilkes-Barre.
On July 21, 1951, Margaret married the love of her life, Joseph J. Margalis. Margaret followed Joseph in his career and became an office assistant at the Bendix Corporation in New York.
In 1966, Joseph had an accident that changed their lives forever. Through love and courage, they adapted to their new lives and became actively involved in local, state, and national organizations dedicated to supporting people with disabilities, including the Paralympics. Margaret traveled throughout the country with Joseph, attending many conferences and meetings related to accessibility issues, as well as Paralympic competitions.
Margaret loved to garden, work on home improvements, and her daily walks. She belonged to several Roman Catholic churches in her life: St. Joseph of Hudson; St. Francis of Miners Mills, and Ss. Peter and Paul Parish, Plains Twp. Margaret was a loving and caring mother to her children and her grandchildren throughout her life.

For thousands of years, red lipstick has acted as a powerful tool.
The vibrant, look-at-me shade coats the lips with the weight and fortitude of a strong piece of armor. Its packaging is just as intense. Not only is it encased in a sleek, slender tube the size of a pocket knife, but it swivels with the utmost precision like a Samurai slowly drawing their sword to reveal the weapon inside.
"Red lipstick makes a statement without having to actually say anything," Anthony Nguyen, KVD Beauty's Global Artistry Ambassador, told E! News. "It's a stand-out color that's strong, sexy, bold, and exudes confidence."
Out of all the makeup staples—mascara, eyeliner, blush and powders—nothing has stood the test of time quite like red lips. The intoxicating hue is so timeless Lady Gaga's go-to makeup artist and Haus Labs Global Artistry Director Sarah Tanno perfectly summed up its allure, calling it, "the little black dress of makeup."
If anything, it's become an icon in its own right.
"I always signify red lipstick with something of great importance," Tanno added. "You want to say something when you put on your favorite red lip."
Tanno couldn't be more spot on.
Suffragettes armored themselves with the striking color as they fought for the right to vote. In 1912, beauty pioneer Elizabeth Arden handed them the bullets—tiny, but mighty tubes of red lipstick that were shaped like ammunition.
The bold move symbolized strength, independence and defiance all in one.
"It wasn't worn by everybody at that point," Bésame Cosmetics founder and author of Classic Beauty: The History of Makeup Gabriela Hernandez told E!. "They were trying to say, 'Hey, we're independent, and we're different and we wear whatever we want.'"
The wild audacity of the suffragists showcased the ferocity of red lipstick, so much so that it became essential during World War II. At the time, beauty brands halted the production of its products, including lipstick, in order to use all of its materials for the war.
"At first, they cut it out," Hernandez noted. "But then they saw morale really slip—not only their morale but the morale of the soldiers who wanted pretty girls to come back to."
Once again, Elizabeth Arden was linked to a historical moment. To help lift their spirits, she created a fire-engine shade called Montezuma Red—an homage to the Marine Corps' hymn—and was given the exclusive right to sell makeup on military bases.
"That color was marketed to women as a morale booster," Hernandez explained. "You didn't have pantyhose available. You didn't have a lot of fabric. The only thing that stuck around were lipsticks."
Red lipstick's popularity also skyrocketed due to Hollywood. Long before influencers hyped up (yet another) champagne-colored highlighter or life-changing eye cream, actresses like Claudette Colbert, Lana Turner and Rita Hayworth were the first to promote cosmetics.
Although women had emulated silent era movie stars in the Jazz Age—cutting their hair into boyish bobs and rimming their eyes with heavy kohl liners—Technicolor, which exploded in the late 1930s, truly revolutionized the industry.
Now that women could see the makeup the actresses painted themselves with—like the bright cherry stain left behind after passionately kissing their co-star—they clamored to look like them.
"Reds were the shades that most actresses wore because it photographed well," Hernandez pointed out, "And it was very definitive. You could see the lips."
Back then, Hernandez said, actresses were assigned specific reds depending on the characters they were typecast as. In other words, Judy Garland mostly played girl-next-door roles, so she frequently wore soft and sweet rosy hues.
A dark, vampy color was saved for the seductive types. As makeup artist Nick Barose, who works with Lupita Nyong'o, Winona Ryder and Gugu Mbatha Raw, told E!, "It's the color of blood, so when you wear it on your mouth, it adds a sense of femme fatale glamour."
While the business model has evolved over time, it's still a practice used today. Think of Euphoria's lead makeup artist, Donni Davy, who partnered with the creators of the hit HBO show and studio A24 to launch Half Magic Beauty.
Euphoria reignited people's burning desire to experiment with makeup and Davy has supplied them with the tools they need to transform themselves. In the same way Davy maps out a character's look to drive the story, her products are made with intention.
"I named my classic red shade Self Help because I wanted it to embody that pick-me-up kind of dopamine effect that a red lipstick can have," Davy told E!. "It gives self-respect."
All in all, red lipstick is here to stay. As Barose so adequately put it, "The trends might change, but the very idea of red lips will always be timeless."
Hernandez added, "Women will continue to wear red lipstick because it's a defining feature on the face."

CANMORE, Alberta (AP) — Canadian police said Saturday six people have died in a small plane crash west of Calgary in the province of Alberta.
The Royal Canadian Mounted Police said the plane with a pilot and five passengers aboard took off from Springbank Airport, just west of the city, on Friday night and was headed for Salmon Arm, British Columbia.
It was reported overdue by the Joint Rescue Coordination Centre in Trenton, Ontario, and police say the center contacted them about the plane at 1 a.m. Saturday.
Police say a Royal Canadian Air Force Hercules plane was dispatched to search for the missing aircraft and searchers located it on Mount Bogart, about 60 kilometers (37 miles) west of Calgary, by honing in on an emergency locator transmitter.
The Hercules crew and Alberta Parks Mountain Rescue responders who were also dispatched to the scene confirmed there were no survivors.
A Transportation Safety Board spokesman says the aircraft was a single-engine Piper PA-32, and the board is investigating the crash. | https://www.seattletimes.com/nation-world/canadian-police-say-6-people-have-been-killed-in-a-small-plane-crash/?utm_source=RSS&utm_medium=Referral&utm_campaign=RSS_all | 2023-07-30T02:14:29 | 0 | https://www.seattletimes.com/nation-world/canadian-police-say-6-people-have-been-killed-in-a-small-plane-crash/?utm_source=RSS&utm_medium=Referral&utm_campaign=RSS_all |
LOS ANGELES (AP) — A Los Angeles County sheriff’s recruit who was struck by an SUV during a training run last year has died, authorities said.
Alejandro Martinez fought for his life for the past eight months, the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department said late Friday.
“Tragically, he was not able to fulfill his calling of helping others,” the department said in a statement. “He will forever live in our hearts & never be forgotten.”
About 75 recruits, from the Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department and several local police agencies, were running in formation on a street in the Los Angeles suburb of Whittier last November when an SUV veered into them. Twenty-five cadets were injured.
The SUV driver had been identified as a 22-year-old man from suburban Diamond Bar who suffered a minor injury. He was initially arrested for investigation but authorities later released him on grounds that more investigation was needed. His attorney said he has no animosity toward law enforcement and that it was a tragic accident. | https://www.seattletimes.com/nation-world/nation/los-angeles-sheriffs-academy-recruit-who-was-struck-by-suv-on-training-run-dies/?utm_source=RSS&utm_medium=Referral&utm_campaign=RSS_all | 2023-07-30T02:14:35 | 0 | https://www.seattletimes.com/nation-world/nation/los-angeles-sheriffs-academy-recruit-who-was-struck-by-suv-on-training-run-dies/?utm_source=RSS&utm_medium=Referral&utm_campaign=RSS_all |
WESTFIELD, Ind. (AP) — Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor has requested a trade, a person familiar with the situation told The Associated Press on Saturday night.
Taylor, the 2021 NFL rushing champ, has been seeking a contract extension before his rookie contract expires at the end of this season and he’s been one of several running backs to publicly air their grievances throughout the offseason.
The person spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity because the request hadn’t been made public. NFL Network first reported Taylor’s request to be traded.
It came shortly after Taylor left team owner Jim Irsay’s motorhome after a meeting that lasted nearly an hour as the Colts conducted a night practice.
“It was just a good conversation and, you know, hopeful going forward,” Irsay told reporters after practice. “We’re looking forward to a great season, hoping that Jonathan’s a big part of that and I think we had a good conversation.”
Taylor has not spoken with reporters since being placed on the physically unable to perform list Tuesday. General manager Chris Ballard said then the Colts wanted to wait for a new deal until they could see how a healthy Taylor fit the new offense installed by first-year coach Shane Steichen.

After months of warnings from tech executives about the dangers of artificial intelligence, the Federal Bureau of Investigation has a new list of concerns.
The agency's biggest fears are not only about what the technology does but also about who is using it.
During a rare background briefing call with reporters, a senior FBI official, who even acknowledged that they haven't done significant outreach on the topic of AI, described a pretty concerning situation, or a "threat landscape," as the FBI calls it.
He said that China is looking to steal U.S. AI technology and data for AI programs and then use it not just to advance their own AI programs but to influence Americans.
He also said that the FBI is closely monitoring the role that AI may play in the 2024 election and is concerned about the spread of disinformation and deep fake videos.
He said that criminals and terrorists are seeking AI to simplify the production of dangerous chemicals and biological substances to increase their potency.

Scripps News asked about explosives, and this official said that a variety of criminal and national security actors, from violent extremists to traditional terrorists, are using AI to try to come up with ways to create different types of explosives.
He said, "There have been people who have successfully elicited recipes or instructions for creating explosives."
He also said that AI is a force multiplier for crafting fishing e-mails and for using it in other cyberattacks. He says that the FBI has found AI-generated websites that are infected with malware to target users’ sites that have more than a million followers.
The bottom line, the FBI says, there are fewer people, less expertise, and less time needed for a lot of these threats, so there's a much lower bar or barrier for entry here.
Furthermore, the FBI is spending some of its time working on being able to determine what is synthetically AI-generated content online. They are working with private companies, and they're working with academia. But as this official said, this technology is advancing really quickly, and it is hard to stay on top of it.

MARY LOUISE KELLY, HOST:
Emmett Till would have turned 82 today. Till was tortured and murdered in Mississippi after a white woman accused the Black 14-year-old of whistling and grabbing at her. Till and his mother's willingness to share the brutality Till suffered marked a pivotal moment in the early Civil Rights Movement. Mamie Till Mobley described her decision in a 2003 interview with The Chicago Project.
(SOUNDBITE OF ARCHIVED RECORDING)
MAMIE TILL MOBLEY: Let the people see what I've seen. And I want open casket viewing from now until the time we take Emmett for burial.
KELLY: Now, almost 70 years after Till was beaten, shot, had a cotton gin tied around his body and was thrown in the Tallahatchie River, Till and his mother are being memorialized in the form of three monuments in Chicago and Mississippi. President Biden signed the proclamation designating the sites earlier today. Patrick Weems is the executive director of the Emmett Till Interpretive Center in Sumner, Miss. He was at the White House when President Biden put pen to paper. We spoke before he headed to that event.
Patrick Weems, welcome to ALL THINGS CONSIDERED.
PATRICK WEEMS: Thank you, Mary Louise.
KELLY: You've come to D.C. for this event at the White House, and you picked up the Till family en route.
WEEMS: We drove from Chicago to D.C. to be here today, and I couldn't think of a more memorable trip to be here with Wheeler Parker, who's one of the most gracious, forgiving human beings and probably one of the most important people alive.
KELLY: So tell me about the three locations. There are two in Mississippi, one in Illinois. Start with the one that marks the site where Till's body was believed to have been pulled from the Tallahatchie River. What will visitors see there?
WEEMS: Yeah, well, hopefully what they won't see is a bullet-riddled sign. You know, we've had a lot of history of this site being desecrated, being shot up. We were able to put a bulletproof marker there recently in the last couple of years. But more significant is that the site where Till's body came out of the Tallahatchie River will now be a part of the National Park Service system. And to know that it will be federally protected - to make sure that if someone does vandalize our signs, it won't be a local sheriff. It will be the federal government that will get involved. But this is the big bang of the Civil Rights Movement, as Jesse Jackson talked about. This is a site where so many Black bodies were thrown into rivers. But Emmett's miraculously emerged. An 18-year-old fisherman found the body and brought it to the banks of the Tallahatchie River, where his body was initially identified because he had his father's ring on his finger. But then later, Mamie Till made sure the body came to Chicago, where she said, this is my son. I know my son.
KELLY: Yeah. And that's - the site in Illinois is the site where she insisted on an open casket. Describe what we'll see there.
WEEMS: Yeah. So, I mean, public officials wanted to bury Emmett in Mississippi. The sheriff had a directive to make sure the body was buried in Money, Miss. Mamie refused. She wanted to have a very private mourning for her son, first and foremost. But she also took that moment to remember and kind of resist white supremacy, resist the Jim Crow system by having a public funeral, having an open casket to show the world what they did to her son.
KELLY: And then the last location is also in Mississippi, back in Tallahatchie County.
WEEMS: That's right. So the site of the injustice - right? - so the miscarriage of justice took place in our courtroom in 1955. And it's also the site where people like Willie Reed, an 18-year-old sharecropper who witnessed the murder. He testified at the trial, and he whispered his testimony because he was scared to death. He later had a nervous breakdown, changed his name and moved to Chicago and didn't talk about this until 30 years later. And so, you know, it's a low point in American history, the fact that these men get off without any penalty. But it also is a testimony to people like Medgar Evers, Willie Reed, Mose Wright, Mamie Till, Dr. T.R.M. Howard - people who did the right thing that day and had the courage to at least try to get some attempt at justice.
KELLY: You know, I'm thinking about how this monument designation comes as a national conversation is underway about how to teach Black history in our schools. Do you think these monuments might help inform that conversation?
WEEMS: They already are. I mean, this is American history. We have young people visit these sites already. This will only amplify and make it easier for young people to come. It takes the best of us to talk about the worst of us. And if we're going to have a true democracy and multicultural democracy, we have to understand where we've stumbled. And we stumbled badly in 1955. And no matter party affiliation, I think we should all agree that what took place in 1955 was wrong. The system was wrong. Mississippi was wrong. The United States was wrong. But we can be better. It's our hope that this memorial marks a line in the sand that says, never again, and that if we want to hold and cherish our democracy, we need to learn about Mose Wright and Mamie Till.
KELLY: Patrick Weems. Thank you.
WEEMS: Thank you, Mary Louise. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.

Of all extreme weather conditions, heat is the most deadly. It kills more people in the U.S. in an average year than hurricanes, tornadoes and floods combined. The human body has a built-in cooling mechanism – sweat. But that system can only do so much, especially in soaring temperatures with high humidity.
Here's a look at what happens to the human body in extreme temperatures – and the three main pathways to fatal consequences.
Loading...
Organ failure caused by heatstroke
When the surrounding temperatures approach your internal body temperature – which is about 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit for most of us – your body starts to cool off through evaporative cooling, better known as sweating. But when it's very humid out, that sweat won't evaporate as well and cool you down.
When your body is exposed to heat, it will try to cool itself down by redirecting more blood to the skin, says Ollie Jay, a professor of heat and health at the University of Sydney, where he directs the Heat and Health Research Incubator. But that means less blood and less oxygen are going to your gut. If these conditions go on long enough, your gut can become more permeable.
"So, nasty things like endotoxins that usually reside and stay inside the gut start leaking out of the gut, entering the circulation. And that sets off a cascade of effects that ultimately result in death," Jay says.
For example, those toxins can activate white blood cells, says Camilo Mora, a climate scientist and professor at the University of Hawaii at Manoa who has researched how heat can turn fatal. "They say, Oh my God, we're getting attacked right now. And the white blood cells are going to attack this contamination in the blood, creating coagulation" – or blood clots, Mora says. Those clots can lead to multiple organ failure.
"And at that point, it's pretty irreversible," Jay adds.
Cardiovascular collapse
The second way people die in high heat also has to do with your body pumping more blood to the skin. Your heart has to pump faster – which can make you feel lightheaded – to keep your blood pressure up.
"We might have a heart rate of 60 beats per minute, all of a sudden, we might be asking the heart to contract 100 times per minute, 110 times per minute. So now you're asking the heart to do a lot more work," Jay says.
Those spikes in the heart rate can be triggers for a heart attack, he says, especially for the elderly and those with underlying heart conditions.
Fluid loss leading to kidney failure
The third deadly danger has to do with the fluids your body is losing in extreme heat. People can sweat as much as a liter and half per hour, Jay says. And if you don't replenish those fluids, you get dehydrated and your blood volume shrinks, which makes it harder to maintain blood pressure. That can strain your heart and your kidneys.
"People with kidney disorders can be at greater risk of a negative health outcome during extreme heat exposure," Jay says.
Mora notes another danger to the kidneys that people who work physically demanding jobs in high heat outdoors face. Rhabdomyolysis causes muscle tissue to break down, releasing proteins into the blood that can clog kidneys. This usually occurs in the acute phase of heatstroke. Jay says there's also some evidence that habitually working outdoors in high heat without proper hydration can increase the risk of chronic kidney disease.
What you can do to stay safe
Watch for the first signs of mild heat exhaustion:
If that happens, Jay says, get out of the heat and into the shade or indoors ASAP. Drink plenty of water and wet your clothes and skin. Immersing your feet in cold water can also help.
Jay says the goal is to cool down so you don't progress to severe heat exhaustion, where you might start vomiting or seem to lose coordination – signs of neurological disturbance.
If your core body temperature rises to about 104 degrees Fahrenheit, Jay says, that's where you risk heatstroke.
How hot is too hot?
Experts say there's no absolute temperature at which extreme heat can turn dangerous.
"It depends on the individual," says Lewis Halsey, a professor of environmental physiology at the University of Roehampton in the U.K. "It depends on how acclimated they are to heat. It depends how long they're exposed to the heat for. It depends on how they're experiencing this heat."
If sweating is our superpower to keep cool, then "the kryptonite to that superpower is humidity," Halsey says.
So a person might start feeling overwhelmed much sooner in higher humidity at lower temperatures than if they're in dry heat, he says. Direct sunlight will heat us up faster than when we're in the shade. A nice breeze could help sweat evaporate and cool us off.
The elderly and very young are considered particularly vulnerable in the heat. But Mora of the University of Hawaii at Manoa notes heat stress can hit anyone.
He points to the story of a young family who died after becoming dangerously overheated while hiking on a day in August 2021 when temperatures reached 109 degrees Fahrenheit in Northern California. The husband, wife, their one-year-old daughter and even the family dog were found dead two days later.
Mora says those kinds of conditions could kill within a few hours — even if you are young and healthy.
"The military has done a lot of research into heat exposure and they find the first symptoms of heat exhaustion, heatstroke after only a few hours, even among the healthiest of people," Mora says.

OSHKOSH, Wis. — Two people were killed and two others injured Saturday in a midair collision at an airport in Wisconsin.
A Rotorway 162F helicopter and an ELA Eclipse 10 gyrocopter collided shortly after noon local time at Wittman Regional Airport in Oshkosh, authorities said. The aircraft belonged to individuals attending the Experimental Aircraft Association's annual fly-in convention in Oshkosh but were not involved in the air show, a statement from the organization said.
The association, citing the Winnebago County Sheriff's Office, said two people were killed and two injured. The injured were taken to a local hospital and were in stable condition.
The association said further information would be released as additional details are confirmed. The National Transportation Safety Board is investigating the crash.
Separately, a plane earlier Saturday crashed into Lake Winnebago near Oshkosh, killing two people, according to the sheriff's office. The NTSB is also investigating that case, which involved a single-engine North American T-6 aircraft.

SCOTT DETROW, HOST:
The list of charges against former President Donald Trump keeps growing. On Thursday, federal prosecutors in Florida added new felony charges against Trump and two of his employees at Mar-a-Lago. Trump and two others are now charged with seeking to delete key security footage at a moment when the investigation into Trump's alleged possession of classified documents grew more serious. My good friends at the NPR Politics Podcast talked through what it all means. Justice correspondent Carrie Johnson began the conversation with Susan Davis and Domenico Montanaro by pointing out that these latest charges happened at a moment when she and other reporters were waiting on an entirely different potential indictment of Trump.
CARRIE JOHNSON, BYLINE: So while a bunch of us were sitting in the federal courthouse in D.C. waiting for something to happen with respect to the January 6 grand jury, instead, the activity was happening in South Florida again. Donald Trump has now been charged with a total of 40 federal criminal offenses...
DOMENICO MONTANARO, BYLINE: Wow.
JOHNSON: ...In South Florida in connection with the hoarding - alleged hoarding of documents at his Mar-a-Lago resort. And there are two elements to this superseding indictment, two new facets here.
The first is that Trump has been charged with another count of willful retention of information related to the national defense. This seems to be about a military presentation regarding Iran that Trump was allegedly waving around to aides at Bedminster, his New Jersey golf club, that was mentioned in the earlier indictment. And the prosecution says they now have these papers. And the reason why this is important is because they also have an audiotape of someone at that meeting of Trump allegedly saying, you know, this is a secret, and I could have declassified it when I was president, but I didn't. And so it's still a secret. And it could be powerful evidence of his state of mind, really.
SUSAN DAVIS, BYLINE: And, Carrie, what is the other component to this?
JOHNSON: The other component is that there are new obstruction of justice charges here against former President Trump, his valet, Walt Nauta, and a third Mar-a-Lago employee, Carlos De Oliveira. The allegation here is that after the FBI and the Justice Department issued a subpoena for security footage of Mar-a-Lago, Trump, Nauta and this third man, Carlos De Oliveira, cooked up a plot to try to delete the security footage to keep it out of the hands of the FBI. And there's some allegation about De Oliveira telling another Mar-a-Lago employee, the boss really wants this done. And this is hard stuff. This is hard stuff, if it's true, for a jury to hear in a case that's so important about national security.
DAVIS: And is it unusual in a case like this for having additional charges brought, especially in such a high-profile investigation?
JOHNSON: It's not super unusual. Prosecutors often will sift through their evidence and realize there's a bit more here. We did know already that some additional Mar-a-Lago employees were under government scrutiny. Now a third person has been charged. It's not clear to me why this delay. We do know the prosecutors had said in open court that they were having a hard time getting into Walt Nauta's phone. And perhaps that was really one of the reasons for these additional charges now.
DAVIS: Domenico, has there been any response from former President Trump?
MONTANARO: Well, you can imagine Trump's not happy. And he's, you know, again, blasting the Justice Department, blasting President Biden, blaming him for this and blasting the special counsel, saying that this is just another attempt to derail his presidential campaign. Of course, we're stuck in this situation where, you know, if he's running for president, he's saying, don't prosecute him. But when he was president, the Justice Department didn't want to prosecute him because of their protocols. So clearly, he's trying to use this as a shield, his run for president, to say you really shouldn't be prosecuting me, and this is just all political.
DAVIS: Speaking of political, Domenico, he is still the front-runner for the Republican nomination. And we have new polling out from the NPR/PBS NewsHour/Marist poll.
MONTANARO: Yeah, it's actually brand new. We just got this in. We just got out of the field. And it shows that Republicans are, you know, softening a little bit in their support for Trump overall. But he's still the big player. You know, when we asked about whether or not he's done anything wrong or if he's done something illegal or just something unethical, 51% of people overall said that he, they believe, has done something illegal. Democrats have gone up six points in thinking that since June. Not surprising there.
But when you look on the Republican side, you know, back in June, 50% said that he had done nothing wrong. Now it's down to 41%. You know, that's starting to get toward the outside portion of the margin of error. So that's a little bit of significant movement there. And when we asked about whether or not they want Trump to be the nominee, last month, it was almost two-thirds who said that. Sixty-four percent of Republicans said that they wanted Trump to be the nominee. I mean, he's down six points now to 58%. Now, could these numbers jump back up? Could they change based on how Trump spins some of this? Sure. But we may be seeing a little bit of a pylon effect.
DAVIS: You know, it is a fascinating dynamic because we continue to talk about the Republican primary and how he's still very strong among the base. But these are also an indication that if he were to be a general election nominee, you know, understatement - this is a tremendous amount of political baggage to be bringing into a national election.
MONTANARO: Huge amount of baggage and none of it's popular with independents. It's really the swing group there. And I think we're going to have to watch the fact that, you know, Trump hasn't been able to get over 46% in a general election. Right now, it looks like he is really moving toward being the nominee. Given that Ron DeSantis, the Florida governor, his operation has seemed to kind of take a nosedive in some respects, laying off a bunch of staffers and all of that. But, you know, when it comes to a general election, he's had a significantly difficult time, Trump, in getting above 46%. We're going to have to watch those third parties and see, with all this disaffection, if people decide to go to someone else.
DAVIS: Carrie, this is significant news in the classified documents case, but this was not the indictment news we were expecting this week. We still are expecting to hear likely within days, news about the January 6 investigation.
JOHNSON: Yeah. That's right. Lawyers for former President Trump appeared at the special counsel Jack Smith's office, and presumably to try to convince them not to move forward with an indictment related to Trump's alleged efforts to overturn the 2020 election. Trump called that a productive meeting. We do not have a readout from the special counsel. The grand jury here in D.C. may be back next week, and I'll be here, too, watching and waiting.
DAVIS: Domenico, I personally am very interested to see what the impact of a possible January 6 indictment is, because I think the potential allegations in that case for a lot of voters are in a completely different realm from what's happening in New York about covering up hush-money payments to cover up an extramarital affair, even the classified documents, you know, there's a dispute over whether he could keep them or not. January 6 is about subverting an election. It's about, you know, trying to overturn an election fraudulently trying to overturn election. Voters might see that very differently than these other investigations.
MONTANARO: Yeah. You know, we've pulled on this previously because I was really interested to see if Trump being convicted would change anything with Republicans, and we really didn't see much change. You still had, you know, over 60% of Republicans saying that they wanted Trump to be the nominee if he was convicted of a crime. Now, this was a couple of months ago when this was asked. But in reality, if he is actually convicted of something by a jury of his peers and there are still more pending charges and maybe convicted of something else, do these numbers really start to change and shift? He does have a significant, you know, stronghold on a on a solid share of the Republican Party.
But, you know, right now, the biggest problem in the Republican primary for any alternatives is no one seems to be emerging. But, you know, I really tell people, don't pay much attention when it comes to these horse race numbers in national polls because these - you know, primaries are not decided nationally. They're decided in the early states. And we're starting to see a difference in the polling in places like Iowa and New Hampshire as compared to what we're seeing overall nationally. Trump's lead is much, much smaller in the early states.

LOS ANGELES -- Bronny James plays piano in a video posted by his father, LeBron James, on Saturday, five days after the teenager went into cardiac arrest during a basketball workout at the University of Southern California.
The 18-year-old plays a brief melody in front of his family, smiles and gets up without speaking in the video posted on his father's Instagram account. The video doesn't indicate where or when it was shot.

SCOTT DETROW, HOST:
Take a moment and think about the last thing you cooked. How much do you think the carrot in that recipe cost? And what about those three cups of vegetable broth? Beth Moncel could actually answer that question. She's the founder of budgetbytes.com, a recipe website for folks with small budgets. When she studied nutritional science in college, she learned a costing method that restaurants and cafeterias use, and you can use it at home, too.
BETH MONCEL: I suggest everyone try costing at least once because it's so eye-opening. It really does make you rethink the way you look at all of the ingredients that you're buying.
DETROW: Marielle Segarra, the host of NPR's Life Kit, talked to Moncel recently, and she is going to share some more about that technique, along with other tips for how to spend less on groceries.
MARIELLE SEGARRA, BYLINE: This technique, costing, means calculating the per-service cost of a recipe. So let's say you are making lentil bolognese. That's a recipe on Moncel's website. One ingredient is a carrot. You'd figure out the price of that carrot, add it to the cost of all the other ingredients in the recipe and then...
MONCEL: Divide it by the number of servings so you know how much each of your meals is costing.
SEGARRA: The lentil bolognese costs $1.40 per serving. Moncel says when you do this, you start to notice patterns, like some of the components are way cheaper than others. One carrot is $0.15. One cup of red lentils - $0.67. Half a cup of walnuts - $1.07. Moncel says once you know these things, you can tweak the ratios in your recipes to make them cheaper - like if she's making chili with ground beef.
MONCEL: So something that I like to do is reduce that ground beef by half, so I'm still getting that beefy flavor and that satisfying mouthfeel of, you know, actually eating beef. But then I bulk up the recipe with extra beans, maybe some lentils or maybe even some extra vegetables if I have them.
SEGARRA: Some other foods that tend to be cheap and substantive.
MONCEL: My favorite is cabbage. Cabbage is so versatile because it can go with so many different flavors, and there's a lot of different ways you can prepare it. And it's so filling. Don't forget about potatoes, onions, carrots. Even broccoli sometimes can be pretty inexpensive.
SEGARRA: On the flip side, ingredients that tend to be more expensive are meat, cheese, other dairy products and nuts. Another way to lower your monthly grocery bill is to make sure you're not wasting food. Moncel relies heavily on her freezer.
MONCEL: I often freeze leftover cheese. Leftover bread products freeze really well.
SEGARRA: If you can't freeze a leftover ingredient, try incorporating it into your menu for the next few days. Now, if you're one of those people who puts stuff in the freezer and then forgets that it's in there...
MONCEL: One way to stay on top of that is you can actually keep a list magnetized to the front of your freezer. And every time you put, like, a leftover ingredient in the freezer, you know, just write it down. Write the date on it. And then if you use it, cross it off your list.
SEGARRA: In terms of the actual grocery shopping, Moncel looks at circulars online before she heads to the store. She does that while she's making a meal plan so she can work in ingredients that are on sale. She says keep in mind, it's not always cheaper to buy in bulk. Also, think about whether you'll use that huge bag of flour before it goes bad. Lastly, if you're having a hard time paying for groceries, she suggests that you look up food banks in your area.
MONCEL: I think it's a really great resource that is often overlooked, or people think food banks are for people who only have no food. But really, it's like a bridge to help people through these tough times.
SEGARRA: Maybe you just need a couple of things to get you to your next paycheck. For NPR News, I'm Marielle Segarra. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.

SAN FRANCISCO — Now that he is five seasons into his major league career, Giants outfielder Mike Yastrzemski has an even greater appreciation for the accomplishments of his grandfather, Hall of Famer Carl Yastrzemski.
“Earlier this year I realized I had played as many games as my grandfather had hit home runs,” Yastrzemski said Saturday before the Giants played the Red Sox.
“That gives you perspective. It’s so insane. I’ve never tried to emulate him as a player. That’s impossible. I’m 32 years old and he played 23 years for the same team. Those things are virtually unachievable in the game today.”

So when an occasional fan shouts, “You’re not as good as your grandfather” Yastrzemski just smiles.
“I turn around and say, “I know! No kidding!” he said. “But it’s fun. I get good entertainment out of it. I appreciate what he did in the game on a different level now after going through it a little bit.”
This season has been a challenging one for Yastrzemski. He came into Saturday’s game hitting .231 with a .746 OPS. A strained left hamstring led to two stints on the injured list.
“For me personally, the season came to a halt when I was injured. But we’re in the thick of it. At this point of the year that’s all you can ask for,” Yastrzemski said.
Yastrzemski played 663 games in the Orioles system from 2013-18 without getting called up. He was traded to the Giants before the 2019 season and has since had a .784 OPS and 11.2 bWAR.
Yastrzemski has been primarily a right fielder for the Giants but also started 218 games in center and left. In all, he has 26 defensive runs saved over five seasons.
Much like his grandfather, who won seven Gold Gloves, Yastrzemski takes pride in his defense.

“A lot,” he said. “There’s a lot more to the game than hitting. It’s something that brings value to the team. Defense and pitching is how you win championships.
“When you can offer that, it gives you a lot of opportunities. When I was younger, I thought that was my path to the big leagues, to offer value in different areas. Defense is definitely a focus of mine.”
After languishing in the Orioles system, Yastrzemski’s goal was simply to play one major league game.
“It was a pride thing. That was my dream,” he said. “Every single day after that has been a bonus. We’re working overtime now.”
It pays well. Yastrzemski gained his arbitration rights and was signed to a $6.1 million deal before the season. He has made $10.9 million in his career and become a mainstay for the Giants.
“That’s not something I ever envisioned. I thought I would start 30-40 games a year and be a defensive replacement,” Yastrzemski said. “It shows that when you work hard and put in the right time and effort and have a clear focus on what you want to do, you can accomplish anything.”
With MLB’s new scheduling format, all teams play each other every year. For the Sox and Giants, that will mean alternating home and away series. The Giants are scheduled to play at Fenway Park May 1-2 next season.
Yastrzemski and the Giants were last at Fenway in 2019. He was 4 for 13 with a double and a home run and started the first game of the series in left field, patrolling the same ground his grandfather once did.

For longtime Sox fans, seeing another Yastrzemski in left field was memorable and Mike received loud cheers at Fenway Park.
“Obviously the first time was super special,” Yastrzemski said. “It will probably be a lot less stressful the next time. But it’s always fun to be able to get home in any capacity.”
Mike and his wife, Paige, live in Nashville with their daughter. The Andover native gets usually gets back to Massachusetts several times during the offseason to see family.
“We love doing that,” he said. “I’ll see my mom and obviously my grandparents and countless aunts and uncles and cousins.
“Massachusetts will always be home.”

SAN FRANCISCO — It took just one pitch. If you had your head down, you certainly missed it. After the Red Sox scored two runs in the top of the ninth to tie it, Kenley Jansen came in and immediately surrendered a walkoff home run to J.D. Davis for a 3-2 loss to the Giants on Saturday.
The Giants allowed the Red Sox to hang in there.
San Francisco held a 2-0 lead, but was just 1 for 13 with runners in scoring position.
The Red Sox offense, putting together just three hits through eight innings, suddenly had some life in the ninth when Masataka Yoshida drew a pinch-hit walk against closer Camilo Doval. Jarren Duran then doubled off the right-field wall, and Justin Turner delivered a two-run single to tie the contest at 2.

Still, that wasn’t enough.
The Giants had traffic on the bases all game.
A whole lot of it early against Red Sox starter James Paxton in what could have been his final game with Boston as the trade deadline inches closer. Yet Paxton, somehow, was able to elude damage for much of his outing Saturday afternoon at Oracle Park.
Paxton scuffled his way through five innings that would require a whopping 104 pitches. Nevertheless, the Giants managed just one run, which came in the first inning. The Giants weren’t fooled on Paxton’s four-seam fastball. Austin Slater jumped on a first-pitch leadoff single to left. The next batter, Wilmer Flores, stroked a double to right-center, scoring Slater. Davis made it three consecutive hits with his single to left. A wild pitch put runners on second and third with no outs. Yet Paxton buckled down, striking out Patrick Bailey followed by back-to-back ground outs to end the frame.
In the third, Paxton relinquished a one-out single and a walk, but wiggled out of trouble again, inducing a double-play ball to Rafael Devers at third.

The fourth and fifth produced the same results. A one-out single and a double to right by rookie Marco Luciano on an inside-out swing put runners on second and third. A lineout to first and fly out wrapped around a Mike Yastrzemski walk ended the fourth.
The Giants had runners on first and second in the fifth but Paxton froze Michael Conforto for a called third strike, making San Francisco just 1 for 8 with runners in scoring position.
The Red Sox offense, however, went cold. The club was unable to figure out Ryan Walker, who went 2⅔ scoreless innings while striking out three and allowing one hit. Sean Manaea came on in relief and turned in 4⅔ scoreless frames, striking out five and surrendering two hits.

After months of warnings from tech executives about the dangers of artificial intelligence, the Federal Bureau of Investigation has a new list of concerns.
The agency's biggest fears are not only about what the technology does but also about who is using it.
During a rare background briefing call with reporters, a senior FBI official, who even acknowledged that they haven't done significant outreach on the topic of AI, described a pretty concerning situation, or a "threat landscape," as the FBI calls it.
He said that China is looking to steal U.S. AI technology and data for AI programs and then use it not just to advance their own AI programs but to influence Americans.
He also said that the FBI is closely monitoring the role that AI may play in the 2024 election and is concerned about the spread of disinformation and deep fake videos.
He said that criminals and terrorists are seeking AI to simplify the production of dangerous chemicals and biological substances to increase their potency.

Scripps News asked about explosives, and this official said that a variety of criminal and national security actors, from violent extremists to traditional terrorists, are using AI to try to come up with ways to create different types of explosives.
He said, "There have been people who have successfully elicited recipes or instructions for creating explosives."
He also said that AI is a force multiplier for crafting fishing e-mails and for using it in other cyberattacks. He says that the FBI has found AI-generated websites that are infected with malware to target users’ sites that have more than a million followers.
The bottom line, the FBI says, there are fewer people, less expertise, and less time needed for a lot of these threats, so there's a much lower bar or barrier for entry here.
Furthermore, the FBI is spending some of its time working on being able to determine what is synthetically AI-generated content online. They are working with private companies, and they're working with academia. But as this official said, this technology is advancing really quickly, and it is hard to stay on top of it.

OSHKOSH, Wis. (AP) — Two people were killed and two others injured Saturday in a midair collision at an airport in Wisconsin.
A Rotorway 162F helicopter and an ELA Eclipse 10 gyrocopter collided shortly after noon local time at Wittman Regional Airport in Oshkosh, authorities said. The aircraft belonged to individuals attending the Experimental Aircraft Association’s annual fly-in convention in Oshkosh but were not involved in the air show, a statement from the organization said.
The association, citing the Winnebago County Sheriff’s Office, said two people were killed and two injured. The injured were taken to a local hospital and were in stable condition.
The association said further information would be released as additional details are confirmed. The National Transportation Safety Board is investigating the crash.
Separately, a plane earlier Saturday crashed into Lake Winnebago near Oshkosh, killing two people, according to the sheriff’s office. The NTSB is also investigating that case, which involved a single-engine North American T-6 aircraft. | https://www.twincities.com/2023/07/29/4-dead-2-injured-in-separate-aircraft-accidents-in-wisconsin-authorities-say/ | 2023-07-30T02:18:07 | 0 | https://www.twincities.com/2023/07/29/4-dead-2-injured-in-separate-aircraft-accidents-in-wisconsin-authorities-say/ |
A few days after the lockout began in December 2021, Mike Tauchman weighed the direction of his baseball career.
He received an offer to play overseas and without having any concrete options at that point from a big-league team, Tauchman evaluated the opportunity to go to the Korea Baseball Organization for the 2022 season. He realized, though, it really wasn’t that hard of a decision to leave.
But when Tauchman signed with the Hanwha Eagles, it came with the understanding he might not play in Major League Baseball again.
“That was something I was OK with,” Tauchman told the Tribune on Saturday.
Tauchman’s time in the KBO ultimately led the 32-year-old outfielder to the Chicago Cubs, and he has become an important piece on a surging team. The Palatine native’s journey back the the big leagues might not have come to fruition without Tauchman’s year in South Korea. It came on the heels of a difficult 2021 season that began with a trade from the New York Yankees to the San Francisco Giants one month in and ended with a 56 OPS+ over 75 games.
His season in Korea provided a positive experience and “a new world” for Tauchman and his wife, Eileen. Most importantly, on the baseball side, playing in the KBO gave him a needed reset even as he navigated the inherent challenges that come with the language barrier.
“There were some things from the mental side that I was struggling with over here, just in terms of confidence and reliance and different things like that,” Tauchman said. “And over there, you’re kind of on your own, to an extent, and you’re also expected to play every single day, so that was something that I looked forward to. A year of you’ve just got to figure it out on your own, you’ve got to manage things on your own and the only person you truly, truly rely on is yourself. But that was good for me.”
When the Cubs presented a chance to come back to the U.S. through a minor-league contract with a big-league camp invite he signed in January, Tauchman didn’t go into this season with high expectations that it would lead him back to the majors. The draw of playing close to family, even if he was at Triple-A Iowa, made the Cubs’ offer appealing regardless.
“Unfortunately, the reality is that, at times, results aren’t the only determining factor on how things work at this level,” Tauchman said. “There’s obviously a business component and other components, so to get the opportunity, I was just extremely grateful for it and just try to enjoy it. That mental reset helped in that way.
“I definitely feel more relaxed than 2020-21, which were challenging years with the pandemic stuff, getting traded in early in the season and really struggling and feeling just not myself.”
Cody Bellinger’s knee injury sustained in mid May and subsequent time on the injured list opened the door for Tauchman, who got off to a great start in his first month at Triple A to earn the promotion. Since then, Tauchman has become a stabilizing option when hitting leadoff — .276/.351/.474 slash line in 27 starts in that spot — and given manager David Ross more defensive flexibility with how he builds the Cubs’ daily lineup.
“At points in my career, I would put greater importance on every single at-bat than maybe there needed to be and it’s something you might do as a young player because you want to maximize every opportunity you have and you feel like if you don’t, nobody’s going to think you’re any good,” Tauchman said. “But maybe with the passage of time or getting older or just different experiences, it’s, like, you’ve had thousands of at-bats in your life and some go well, some don’t, and it has no bearing on the next one.
“That’s something that I’ve tried to keep perspective on this year because hitting in the big leagues is really hard. It’s really hard. And some days pitchers just out execute you and there’s little you can do about it. So I’m just trying to keep perspective that way.”
Tauchman’s game-ending home run robbery Friday night to beat the St. Louis Cardinals sealed the Cubs’ biggest win of the season. Within the clubhouse, the way Tauchman has made the most of his major-league return has not gone unnoticed even before his outstanding play.
“I have a lot of belief in guys like that that just keep going,” second baseman Nico Hoerner said. “He’s going to embrace whatever role he has and he’s got a really big one for us.” | https://www.twincities.com/2023/07/29/how-a-season-in-the-kbo-positioned-mike-tauchman-to-make-the-most-of-his-opportunity-with-the-chicago-cubs/ | 2023-07-30T02:18:13 | 1 | https://www.twincities.com/2023/07/29/how-a-season-in-the-kbo-positioned-mike-tauchman-to-make-the-most-of-his-opportunity-with-the-chicago-cubs/ |
The Mets’ tear-down is underway, with the team trading veteran ace Max Scherzer to the Texas Rangers on Saturday, the Daily News confirmed.
The three-time Cy Young Award winner agreed to waive his no-trade clause to push the deal through.
Scherzer, 39, is in the second season of a three-year, $130 million contract. The final year of the deal is a player option worth $43.3 million.
The right-hander is 9-4 this season but has pitched to a 4.01 ERA, his worst mark in more than a decade.
The trade came a day after Scherzer said he wanted to speak with the Mets’ front office about its intentions before the Aug. 1 trade deadline. The Mets traded closer David Robertson to the Marlins on Thursday.
“Probably got to have a conversation with the front office,” Scherzer said Friday after holding the Nationals to one run over seven innings in a win. “I mean, you’re trading our closer away. I’m sure a bunch of people are gonna have to have conversations with the front office.”
The Rangers hope Scherzer can bolster a rotation that’s missing former Mets ace Jacob deGrom, who recently underwent Tommy John surgery on his right elbow after signing a five-year contract with Texas in the offseason.
The Rangers currently lead the AL West. Their pitching coach is Mike Maddux, who held the same role with the Nationals in 2016 and 2017, when Scherzer won back-to-back Cy Young Awards there.
The Nationals traded Scherzer to the Dodgers before the 2021 trade deadline. Scherzer said that situation was different than this year’s with the Mets, who are in fourth place in the NL East and outside of the playoff picture despite the biggest payroll in MLB history.
“When I was in Washington, I was going to be a free agent,” Scherzer said Friday. “Our season was going south and I wanted to get traded to a playoff contender. That was the calculus with me with the Nationals. This time around, I’m not going to be a free agent. I have another year here. We did great things last year. We won 101 ballgames last year. Unfortunately, this year it’s not.”
About an hour before news of the trade talks emerged, Mets manager Buck Showalter said he didn’t have an issue with Scherzer’s comments.
“I’m sure that’s how he feels,” Showalter said Saturday. “Max has made it very clear why he gets up in the morning. He wants it to be here. That’s the way he’s always felt. He likes it here.”
Co-ace Justin Verlander, who signed a two-year, $86.6 million deal with the Mets in the offseason, has also been the subject of trade rumors.

Snow, cold and wet didn’t dampen the spirt of the outdoor school trip for Challis fifth-grade students earlier this spring.
This year’s wet spring resulted in changes for the outdoor school, held at Idaho BaseCamp on Trail Creek Road, teacher Stephanie Strand told school board members earlier this month. But camp personnel changed the curriculum a bit to work around the snow and mud.
Challis students were the first group hosted this spring at the outdoor school, Strand said. Camp personnel plowed some of the upper areas of the grounds, but the river bottom was very snowy. Most years, students spend a lot of time at the river bottom, she said, but not this year.
The three students who spoke to school board members clearly enjoyed the trip.
Malcolm Smith told trustees he and his classmates got to snowshoe. “I was pretty excited to do it,” he said. “We were the first group to do snowshoeing.”
Malcolm said the games they got to play during free time were also fun.
Peyton Runnels said her favorite part of the program was the morning mindfulness sessions. She and other students practiced yoga and breathing techniques, she said.
Quincy Smith’s favorite part of the program were the trust activities. Students were blindfolded and placed their hands on the shoulders of a classmate and they all walked to a campfire before roasting marshmallows, she said.
Because more programs had to be inside this year than some years, Strand said a lot of focus was placed on trust activities versus outdoor activities.
The cold weather did make one chore less fun, the students agreed — washing dishes. Their hands got pretty cold doing that task.
Strand and the students thanked the board members for again allowing Challis students to participate in the outdoor school, a program they’ve approved for many years.
Strand also told trustees about another outdoor program Challis Elementary has been approved for this fall — the Yellowstone Expedition trip.
Sixth-graders are preparing for the five-day excursion set for Sept. 18-22. Those dates are earlier than usual, Strand said. This is just the third time since 2014 that Challis has been invited for the five-day session, she said. Usually the trip is a three-day weekend venture. Schools are chosen through a lottery system, she said, but Challis has been lucky every year, in part because they are willing to attend either the five-day or three-day session. Not all schools have that flexibility, Strand said.
Board members approved the 2023 trip to Yellowstone National Park. Strand said students are already raising money to pay for the trip and will do more fundraising once school starts next month.

FUKUOKA, Japan -- Here's why Katie Ledecky is one of the greatest freestyle swimmers in the history of the sport: She is never quite satisfied.
The 26-year-old American won the 800-meter freestyle on Saturday at the world championships to become the first swimmer to win six golds in the same event at worlds. It was also her 16th individual world title, breaking a tie with Michael Phelps for the most golds at worlds.
She also is a seven-time Olympic gold medalist and the world record holder in both the 800 and 1,500.
But that winning time - 8 minutes, 8.87 seconds, which is the seventh-quickest she'd ever swum - wasn't quite good enough in her favorite event.
"I'm just always trying to think of new ways to improve. I mean I've already got everything turning in my head right now. I kind of wanted to be better than I was tonight," she said, twirling her right hand beside her right ear, trying to stir up ideas.
"I'm pretty tough on myself," she said. "But I think I have found the balance of being tough on myself but also having that grace."
The 800 was Ledecky's second individual gold following her win in the 1,500 free on Tuesday. She also took silver in the 400 free. Li Bingjie of China took silver in 8:13.31, and Ariarne Titmus of Australia got the bronze in 8:13.59.
"It's fun to leave a meet with your favorite event, and I just wanted to leave it all in the pool," Ledecky said.
It was only the fourth gold for the United States in the seventh of eight days in the pool. Meanwhile, Australia has been piling it on with 13 golds, matching its best at the worlds. Australia won three more golds on Saturday.
The Americans lead the overall table with 31 medals (16 silver), Australia has 20 and China 13.
Kaylee McKeown of Australia made history of her own with gold in the women's 200 backstroke. McKeown's victory gave her a sweep of all three backstroke events after earlier wins in the 50 and 100. She became the first swimmer to sweep all three backstrokes at the worlds.
It all made up for her disqualification earlier in the 200 IM.
"You can't change the rules," she said. "I got ruled out. It's just the cards I was dealt with and I couldn't do much more than that. So I just had to carry myself the best I could and channel all my anger and turn a huge negative into a positive."
Regan Smith of the United States picked up the silver in 2:04.94, while Peng Xuwei of China got the bronze in 2:06.74.
Sarah Sjstrm of Sweden continued her dominance with gold in the 50 butterfly. The 29-year-old won in 24.77 seconds and has now won the event five consecutive times at the worlds. The win brought Sjstrm's individual medals at the worlds to 20, equaling Phelps' mark.
Sjstrm also broke her own record in the 50 free, going 23.61 in a semifinal heat. Her old mark was 23.67 set in 2017.
"There are not too many secrets," Sjstrm said about her longevity. "Just do the work every day, go to practice, and stay humble."
Zhang Yufei of China, who took gold in the 100 fly, claimed the silver in 25.05, while American Gretchen Walsh got the bronze in 25.46.
Japanese fan favorite Rikako Ikee finished seventh (25.78) in the 50 fly but was greeted warmly by the home crowd.
The 23-year-old Ikee won six gold medals at the 2018 Asian Games and was expected to be a favorite in the Tokyo Olympics. But she was diagnosed with leukemia in February 2019. Her comeback continues to resonate with both the Japanese public and her fellow competitors.
Cameron McEvoy of Australia led all the way to capture the gold in the 50 free in 21.06. It was his first individual gold in the worlds or Olympics.
American Jack Alexy collected his second silver of the worlds in 21.57 to go with his silver in the 100 free. Benjamin Proud of Britian, last year's world champion, took the bronze in 21.58.
Caeleb Dressel won the event at the Olympics but did not qualify for the U.S. team. McEvoy's time was quicker than Dressel's winning time in Tokyo - 21.07.
Maxime Grousset of France won gold in the 100 fly in 50.14. The 24-year-old took the early lead and held on. Josh Liendo of Canada earned the silver in 50.34, while American Dare Rose made the podium with the bronze (50.46).
Ruta Meilutyte of Lithuania equaled the world record of 29.30 in her semifinal in the 50 breaststroke.
Australia won the 4x100 mixed freestyle relay in a world record of 3:18.83. The Americans took silver in 3:20.82, with Britain getting the bronze in 3:21.68. The relay is not an Olympic event. | https://6abc.com/swimming-katie-ledecky-michael-phelps-world-championship-gold/13570659/ | 2023-07-30T02:19:56 | 0 | https://6abc.com/swimming-katie-ledecky-michael-phelps-world-championship-gold/13570659/ |
REDFIELD, S.D. — The Dell Rapids Post 65 Legion baseball buzzsaw kept spinning on Saturday afternoon.
Dell Rapids scored six early runs and starter Jack Henry neutralized the Salem/Montrose/Canova offense to the tune of one hit in a 6-0 Class B state Legion winner’s bracket game. Since a pair of early season losses to Sioux Falls Post 15, Dell Rapids (27-2) has won 27 games in a row.
Henry, the South Dakota State football pledge , struck out 10 batters, with two walks on 108 pitches in six innings. His only hit allowed came in the bottom of the seventh, with SMC’s Griffin Club singling to third base. From there, Drake Eastman pitched a perfect seventh inning to move Dell Rapids to a 2-0 start in Redfield.
Brayden Pankonen had an RBI and two of the Phils’ six hits, with Henry driving in two runs and Aiden Boechler also driving in a run for Dell Rapids.
SMC’s Owen Alley, who finished Friday’s 15-2 opening-round win over Tabor, returned to start the game on Saturday and threw 1 2/3 innings, with five hits, six runs (four earned) and two walks allowed. SMC’s relievers kept the team within striking distance. Carter Randall pitched the bulk of the game in relief, throwing 3 1/3 innings with one hit and no runs allowed, and Jackson Remmers pitched two scoreless innings with three strikeouts. But defensively, five errors from SMC did not help the cause.

The Phils will face host Redfield in the Sunday night game between undefeated teams, with the winner in the driver’s seat of the tournament once it's down to four teams.
SMC (18-6) turns the page to Sunday’s elimination round, where it will face Elk Point-Jefferson at 1 p.m. in Redfield. | https://www.mitchellrepublic.com/sports/prep/dell-rapids-shuts-down-salem-montrose-canova-in-class-b-state-legion-con | 2023-07-30T02:20:21 | 1 | https://www.mitchellrepublic.com/sports/prep/dell-rapids-shuts-down-salem-montrose-canova-in-class-b-state-legion-con |
YANKTON — With a walk-off single in the bottom of the seventh, Coen Cook was the hero for Harrisburg Gold and lifted the Tigers to their first Class A state American Legion baseball championship with a 3-2 win over Brookings on Saturday at Riverside Field.
Cook, the No. 9 hitter in the Tigers’ lineup, singled an 0-1 pitch to left field to score Tate Larson from second base and elicit a celebration on the diamond.

Harrisburg had tied the game in the sixth inning with a double play groundout that managed to score Max Carlson from third base. Carlson scored twice in the game, while Jack Riley finished the game with an RBI. Eli Kokenge earned the win on the mound with a complete-game effort with three hits and two runs allowed with five strikeouts. Kokenge finished as the tournament’s MVP.
The Bandits picked up both of their runs in the second inning to take a 2-0 lead, with Nolan Miles picking up an RBI double and getting caught in a rundown between second and third, allowing a second run to score on the play. Breck Hirrschoff pitched 6 1/3 innings in the game, allowing six hits, three runs (two earned) and striking out four. The Tigers finished with a 6-3 edge in hits in the game.
With the win, Harrisburg earned a berth in the American Legion Central Plains Regional, which begins on Wednesday, Aug. 2 in Rapid City, with Post 22 as the host team and also representing South Dakota. The tournament includes teams from Minnesota, Nebraska, North Dakota and South Dakota, with two teams from each state.

Brookings (29-17) reached the winner-take-all championship with a 4-3 victory over Sioux Falls East in the first game on Saturday.
East held a 2-0 lead after the first inning but Brookings bounced back with three in the third frame, a lead that climbed to 4-2 going to the seventh. Sioux Falls East scored once more in the bottom of the seventh but starting pitcher Austin Clark closed out his complete-game effort and stranded the tying run at second base.
Clark allowed six hits and three runs in seven innings on only 81 pitches. Breck Hirrschoff and Justin Cofell each had two hits for the Bandits, with RBIs from both along with Parker Winghart and Nolan Miles.
Sioux Falls East, which finished the season at 41-10, had two hits each from Jack Smith and Myles Rees. Rees took the loss on the mound with six innings pitched and four runs allowed on eight hits. | https://www.mitchellrepublic.com/sports/prep/harrisburg-claims-class-a-legion-baseball-title-in-walk-off-fashion-over-brookings | 2023-07-30T02:20:32 | 0 | https://www.mitchellrepublic.com/sports/prep/harrisburg-claims-class-a-legion-baseball-title-in-walk-off-fashion-over-brookings |
WICHITA FALLS (KFDX/KJTL) — The first day of school is fast approaching, and just like students need supplies, so do teachers.
Crashworks STEAM studio and makerspace hosted their annual teacher supply giveaway to help decorate and stock up those classrooms.
The owner, Shauna Larocque, collected supplies for the past couple of months to ensure all teachers were able to get what they needed.
“I used to teach public school,” said Larocque. “I know that as a general rule, you are buying the decorations for your class, extra supplies for your class. For the middle of the year, everybody ran out of pencils for your class. We often see supply giveaways for kids, you know, backpack drives and things like that, which I think is wonderful, but not as much support for the teachers directly.”
Larocque noted the event reached approximately seven school districts. The studio intends on giving away all the supplies donated to the shop. If you missed the drive and would like to get some supplies for your classroom, or you would like to donate, email info@crashworkswf.com. | https://www.texomashomepage.com/news/crashworks-studio-hosts-teacher-supply-giveaway/ | 2023-07-30T02:22:00 | 0 | https://www.texomashomepage.com/news/crashworks-studio-hosts-teacher-supply-giveaway/ |
WICHITA FALLS (KFDX/KJTL) — An Iowa Park man is facing more charges of alleged possession of child pornography.
According to court documentation, David Hobbs Ray is charged with 10 new counts of possession of child pornography and is jailed with bonds totaling $200,000.
On June 6, 2023, a search warrant was issued at an apartment on Johnson Road in Iowa Park for a subject, Ray, who had allegedly downloaded child pornography. Ray admitted to knowing why police were there and said that it had been “going on” for most of his life.
Police asked what devices were used to download the alleged content, Ray replied, “All of them.” When asked how many images, Ray said he did not know, but “under the law”, it could probably be “thousands”; or something to that effect, the affidavit read.
An arrest warrant was issued, and Ray was jailed for possession of child pornography based on evidence found. He was freed on a $10,000 bond.
On July 13, a search warrant on a Google cellphone that belongs to Ray found images and videos depicting what appeared to be female children under the age of 18 years in various sexual positions.
Warrants for Ray’s arrest were issued. He remained in jail on 10 counts of possession of child pornography, Saturday, July 29. 2023.

WICHITA FALLS (KFDX/KJTL) — A Wichita Falls mother was jailed after she and her 2-year-old child reportedly tested positive for methamphetamine.
According to the arrest warrant, on Monday, May 8, 2023, an investigator with Child Protective Service called the Wichita Falls Police Department to report a case of child endangerment at an address in the 1500 block of Travis Street.
The CPS investigator told police a woman, identified as Abigail Reed, tested positive for meth and said Reed’s 2-year-old child was living with her at the time.
The child was removed from the home by CPS and tested for drugs, which rendered positive for meth. The CPS investigator told police Reed admitted to using meth in the home.
Reed told police she started using meth in 2022 and said she used the narcotic in the master bedroom of the home. When asked, how the victim was exposed, she said, “it must have been in the home.”
A warrant was issued, and she was arrested on Thursday, July 27, 2023, for abandoning or endangering a child. She was freed on a $10,000 bond.

(NEXSTAR) — Pretend you accidentally knock your drink over. What would you say happened to it? If you’re from Texas, or just from the south overall, you might say it “tumped” over.
In general, the word is used when something falls over, spills over, or is knocked over. You can tump someone over or be tumped over by someone else. It’s a useful word — but is it even a word?
And moreover, why do Texans say this?
While “tump” isn’t only found in Texas, you’ll definitely hear it there. Several Texas news outlets have attempted to trace the word’s origin, including Texas Monthly, which pointed to a now-26-year-old post on a message board called Word Wizard (the website is now gone, sadly). According to Texas Monthly’s John Nova Lomax, that lost-to-time post explained that “tump” was a word meant to mimic the “thump” of something falling and hitting the ground.
A common etymological theory is that the word is a combination of the words “tipped” and “dumped” — both of which are frequently followed by the word “over,” as “tumped” often is. In other words, what’s known as a portmanteau, as explained by Texas Standard in 2017.
Again, the verbal phenomenon isn’t signature to only Texas. Many southern outlets, including Oklahoma’s The Oklahoman and Alabama’s AL.com, have noted the trend. Nevertheless, Texans online appear to proudly own the word.
“If you used the word ‘tumped’ you’re: A) from Texas B) not from Texas and possibly just had a stroke. See a doctor ASAP,” joked the popular Texas Humor Twitter account in 2014.
Musings on the word can be seen in connection with Texas Reddit, including this giant thread of Texas slang words.
In a 2020 Reddit thread, one new Texan asked how long until they could convincingly say “Yeehaw,” to which someone posed a counter-challenge: “The real test is when you can properly use ‘tumped over’ in a sentence.”
We may just never know where tump came from. What’s more, researching tump can be more difficult than it used to be since a certain former president’s last name takes up considerable search engine real estate now.
Finally, if anyone ever laughs at you for using tump, just know this: the word’s even made it into the Merriam-Webster Dictionary. So tump away, Texas! | https://www.texomashomepage.com/news/national-news/what-does-tump-mean-and-why-do-texans-say-it-2/ | 2023-07-30T02:22:18 | 0 | https://www.texomashomepage.com/news/national-news/what-does-tump-mean-and-why-do-texans-say-it-2/ |
WICHITA FALLS (KFDX/KJTL) — Very hot temperatures continue to plague Texoma as well, watch some high temperatures reach close to 110 degrees this week, with lows near 80 degrees.
Very simple forecast… sunny and hot! So, how hot is hot? Well, starting off this coming week we will be close to setting some record highs in the area, especially by Tuesday! In the meantime, a heat advisory will remain in effect through Monday.
It won’t be much of a surprise to see the heat advisories and possible warnings issued as we continue through the week.
As we keep our fingers crossed, current computer models suggest a slight chance for a brief change as we head into the 8-14 day range. Rain chances increase as the days approach, chances, I believe, will produce enough to “shower” in a brief reprieve from the deadly heat we are currently dealing with. | https://www.texomashomepage.com/weather/what-can-we-look-forward-to/ | 2023-07-30T02:22:24 | 0 | https://www.texomashomepage.com/weather/what-can-we-look-forward-to/ |
WESTFIELD, Ind. – Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor has requested a trade, a person familiar with the situation told The Associated Press on Saturday night.
Taylor, the 2021 NFL rushing champ, has been seeking a contract extension before his rookie contract expires at the end of this season and he's been one of several running backs to publicly air their grievances throughout the offseason.
The person spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity because the request hadn't been made public. NFL Network first reported Taylor's request to be traded.
It came shortly after Taylor left team owner Jim Irsay's motorhome after a meeting that lasted nearly an hour as the Colts conducted a night practice.
“It was just a good conversation and, you know, hopeful going forward,” Irsay told reporters after practice. “We're looking forward to a great season, hoping that Jonathan's a big part of that and I think we had a good conversation.”
Taylor has not spoken with reporters since being placed on the physically unable to perform list Tuesday. General manager Chris Ballard said then the Colts wanted to wait for a new deal until they could see how a healthy Taylor fit the new offense installed by first-year coach Shane Steichen.
Taylor topped the 2,000-yard mark twice in college at Wisconsin and rushed for 2,980 yards and 29 TDs in his first two NFL seasons. He was a unanimous All-Pro selection in 2021, when he led the league with 2,171 total yards and tied for the league lead in total touchdowns with 20.
Last year, he rushed for 861 yards despite missing six games with an ankle injury that required offseason surgery. Indy also struggled, finishing the season 4-11-1.
Irsay posted on the X platform, formerly known as Twitter, on Wednesday suggesting some player agents were acting in bad faith by complaining about how much running backs earned with a franchise tag designation after the collective bargaining agreement was negotiated in good faith. The $10.1 million price tag is the lowest of any position other than kickers or punters.
On Saturday, in front of a capacity crowd at Grand Park in Westfield a staff member took Taylor to the nearby motorhome. Irsay did not divulge details of the meeting afterward, but did talk about two other former Colts star runners — Marshall Faulk, who was traded after Peyton Manning’s rookie season in 1998, and Edgerrin James, who left as a free agent between the 2005 and 2006 seasons.
“I’m responsible for everyone on the team and to look at the cap money as you go forward,” Irsay said. “It’s a great responsibility and you try to be as fair as you possibly can be with the whole football team. So again, I’m hopeful.”
Now the Colts may be looking to move Taylor before he even gets a chance to team up rookie quarterback Anthony Richardson, the No. 4 overall pick in April.
“We need to make sure he (Taylor) is healthy, and we expect he should have an outstanding year,” Irsay said. “(Linebacker) E.J. Speed had the same surgery and is doing well, but it’s early in the process and we want to make sure Jonathan is 100%.”

North Port Commissioner and Residents Oppose Warm Mineral Springs Development
NORTH PORT, Fla. (WWSB) - North Port City Commissioner Debbie McDowell, along with several residents, opposed the P3 partnership that would bring future development to Warm Mineral Springs Park. At a commission meeting on July 25th, the commission approved the partnership 4-1 with McDowell being the only one in opposition. She expressed concern over the fact they haven’t talked about the cost of rebuilding what’s already there.
“During the July workshop we were told that everything can be repaired. Well, if we use that logic, then why are we going to replace the utility building? Why are we going to replace the parks facility building?” asked McDowell. “If everything can be repaired, of course there is a cost involved with that, we haven’t had that conversation.”
McDowell wasn’t alone; During public comment, multiple residents spoke out.
“You are just going to come in and just plow over everything and save a little piece. It’s not enough. It’s really not enough,” said one resident.
McDowell additionally mentioned, there were other plans for Warm Mineral Springs Park before Hurricane Ian took a massive tole. Plans that she explained didn’t involved a public-private partnership.
“I love history. I love the historical value. I was on this board when we were adamant about getting the historical registry designation. Hurricane Ian ripped that rug right out from under us,” said McDowell.
City of North Port Mayor Barbara Langdon said there are still things that need to be discussed and worked out as the process continues. Langdon explained she truly doesn’t see any alternative.
“Given the potential cost, not just of sort of renovating the 23 acres, but bringing that 60-acre property to any reasonable level of quality so that people can enjoy it, is simply not within the financial ability of this city,” said Langdon.
A geotechnical survey of the proposed building areas, real estate and investment evaluations, negotiations, a draft agreement with the developer for consideration by the commission, and changing the Comprehensive Plan Amendment to account for medium-intensity development, still need to be completed.

The Texas Rangers acquired three-time Cy Young Award winner Max Scherzer in a blockbuster trade with the New York Mets on Saturday night, an all-in move for the surprise leaders in the AL West, a person with knowledge of the deal said.
The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the deal hasn’t been announced.
The Rangers added the 39-year-old Scherzer with another former Mets pitcher with Cy Young credentials, two-time winner Jacob deGrom, sidelined by Tommy John elbow surgery, possibly all the way through the end of next season.
According to multiple reports, the deal nets New York one of the top Texas prospects in infielder Luisangel Acuña, the younger brother of Atlanta star Ronald Acuña Jr.
As part of the deal, Scherzer agreed to opt in on the final year of his contract in 2024 at $43 million, according to reports that also said the Mets were paying about $35 million of the remaining $58 million on the right-hander’s contract.
The Mets, one of baseball's biggest disappointments, unloaded Scherzer two days after sending closer David Robertson to Miami for two minor leaguers.
New York began the season with the highest payroll in baseball at $353 million but started the day 17 games behind Atlanta in the NL East and 6 1/2 games back in the wild-card race.
Texas has emerged from six consecutive losing seasons to lead the AL West all but one day in three-time World Series champion Bruce Bochy’s first season as manager.
The Rangers made the first notable move of this trading season by getting once-dominant closer Aroldis Chapman from Kansas City in June. Chapman has stayed in a setup role with Will Smith handling most of the closing duties.
Now Texas has bolstered the rotation knowing deGrom might be out until Scherzer's contract expires at the end of next season.

SCOTT DETROW, HOST:
Take a moment and think about the last thing you cooked. How much do you think the carrot in that recipe cost? And what about those three cups of vegetable broth? Beth Moncel could actually answer that question. She's the founder of budgetbytes.com, a recipe website for folks with small budgets. When she studied nutritional science in college, she learned a costing method that restaurants and cafeterias use, and you can use it at home, too.
BETH MONCEL: I suggest everyone try costing at least once because it's so eye-opening. It really does make you rethink the way you look at all of the ingredients that you're buying.
DETROW: Marielle Segarra, the host of NPR's Life Kit, talked to Moncel recently, and she is going to share some more about that technique, along with other tips for how to spend less on groceries.
MARIELLE SEGARRA, BYLINE: This technique, costing, means calculating the per-service cost of a recipe. So let's say you are making lentil bolognese. That's a recipe on Moncel's website. One ingredient is a carrot. You'd figure out the price of that carrot, add it to the cost of all the other ingredients in the recipe and then...
MONCEL: Divide it by the number of servings so you know how much each of your meals is costing.
SEGARRA: The lentil bolognese costs $1.40 per serving. Moncel says when you do this, you start to notice patterns, like some of the components are way cheaper than others. One carrot is $0.15. One cup of red lentils - $0.67. Half a cup of walnuts - $1.07. Moncel says once you know these things, you can tweak the ratios in your recipes to make them cheaper - like if she's making chili with ground beef.
MONCEL: So something that I like to do is reduce that ground beef by half, so I'm still getting that beefy flavor and that satisfying mouthfeel of, you know, actually eating beef. But then I bulk up the recipe with extra beans, maybe some lentils or maybe even some extra vegetables if I have them.
SEGARRA: Some other foods that tend to be cheap and substantive.
MONCEL: My favorite is cabbage. Cabbage is so versatile because it can go with so many different flavors, and there's a lot of different ways you can prepare it. And it's so filling. Don't forget about potatoes, onions, carrots. Even broccoli sometimes can be pretty inexpensive.
SEGARRA: On the flip side, ingredients that tend to be more expensive are meat, cheese, other dairy products and nuts. Another way to lower your monthly grocery bill is to make sure you're not wasting food. Moncel relies heavily on her freezer.
MONCEL: I often freeze leftover cheese. Leftover bread products freeze really well.
SEGARRA: If you can't freeze a leftover ingredient, try incorporating it into your menu for the next few days. Now, if you're one of those people who puts stuff in the freezer and then forgets that it's in there...
MONCEL: One way to stay on top of that is you can actually keep a list magnetized to the front of your freezer. And every time you put, like, a leftover ingredient in the freezer, you know, just write it down. Write the date on it. And then if you use it, cross it off your list.
SEGARRA: In terms of the actual grocery shopping, Moncel looks at circulars online before she heads to the store. She does that while she's making a meal plan so she can work in ingredients that are on sale. She says keep in mind, it's not always cheaper to buy in bulk. Also, think about whether you'll use that huge bag of flour before it goes bad. Lastly, if you're having a hard time paying for groceries, she suggests that you look up food banks in your area.
MONCEL: I think it's a really great resource that is often overlooked, or people think food banks are for people who only have no food. But really, it's like a bridge to help people through these tough times.
SEGARRA: Maybe you just need a couple of things to get you to your next paycheck. For NPR News, I'm Marielle Segarra. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.

KLAMATH COUNTY, Ore. – According to the latest update, the Golden Fire in Klamath County is now 34% contained.
The fire started a week ago Saturday and is currently 2,137 acres.
The fire has destroyed 48 structures and still leaves another 208 threatened.
Fire officials say residents in the area are still under a Level 2 ‘Be Ready’ evacuation.
While a Red Flag Warning continues surrounding the fire, the Oregon Department of Forestry (ODF) says it hopes the public can help make fighting this fire as easy as possible.
“We’re in a really good place with this fire,” said Public Information Officer Bryan Longoria. “What we’d like to do is just make sure that in these dry, hot, windy conditions that folks are being mindful about their activities. Anything they can do to try and reduce any kind of fires we have to respond to at this point.”
ODF is asking people to avoid mowing non-green grass midday and never park your car on dry grass.
The cause of the fire is still under investigation.

OSHKOSH, Wis. — Two people were killed and two others injured Saturday in a midair collision at an airport in Wisconsin.
A Rotorway 162F helicopter and an ELA Eclipse 10 gyrocopter collided shortly after noon local time at Wittman Regional Airport in Oshkosh, authorities said. The aircraft belonged to individuals attending the Experimental Aircraft Association's annual fly-in convention in Oshkosh but were not involved in the air show, a statement from the organization said.
The association, citing the Winnebago County Sheriff's Office, said two people were killed and two injured. The injured were taken to a local hospital and were in stable condition.
The association said further information would be released as additional details are confirmed. The National Transportation Safety Board is investigating the crash.
Separately, a plane earlier Saturday crashed into Lake Winnebago near Oshkosh, killing two people, according to the sheriff's office. The NTSB is also investigating that case, which involved a single-engine North American T-6 aircraft.

LIVERPOOL, N.Y. (WSYR-TV) — The Puerto Rican Festival of Syracuse welcomed the community to Sharkey’s in Liverpool on Saturday, July 29, for a celebration of culture. With a packed schedule of live performances, craft vendors and food trucks, this event helped bring a little bit of Puerto Rico to Central New York.
“Puerto Ricans are very proud of their culture,” said Jesus Rolon, the festival organizer. “Doing things like this, it helps us be closer to our island… It helps a little bit having a little bit of our island in Syracuse.”
Not only did they celebrate their Puerto Rican heritage and culture, they also honored a young life taken from the Syracuse community too soon.
The 2023 Puerto Rican Festival queen, Alejandra Caceres, was given a scholarship named in honor of Brexialee Torres-Ortiz. 11-year-old Brexi was shot and killed in January.
Caceres said, “I talked to her mother and it’s really special to me, because she said she couldn’t see her daughter do great things. She couldn’t use this towards her daughter, but she knows I’ll be able to do it in her honor. And it’s really special to me.”
The scholarship presentation and naming of the 2023 festival queen were just two of the many events on the festival schedule this year, and Rolon says more events are coming soon for Hispanic heritage month in September.
He explained, “This is a preview of what we’re going to have and all the events we’re going to have throughout the month to celebrate the Latino community in Syracuse.”
More information on those upcoming events can be found on Facebook at Puerto Rican Festival Syracuse NY and Dale315. | https://www.localsyr.com/news/local-news/puerto-rican-culture-celebrated-in-liverpool-festival/ | 2023-07-30T02:25:37 | 1 | https://www.localsyr.com/news/local-news/puerto-rican-culture-celebrated-in-liverpool-festival/ |
Northampton County says estimated damages from recent severe flash flooding have increased by several million dollars as damage assessments continue.
The county said Friday that preliminary accumulative damages from the July 16 storms now total $7,550,000, up from its previous estimate of between $5.5 million and $6 million last week.
According to a release, 12 municipalities have now reported municipal damages of Friday, with the latest addition being Pen Argyl Borough. The full list of municipalities is as follows:
- Bangor Borough (infrastructure, roadways)
- County of Northampton (bridges)
- East Bangor Borough (roadways)
- Forks Township (infrastructure, roadways)
- Lower Mount Bethel Township (roadways)
- Palmer Township (infrastructure, parks/recreation)
- Pen Argyl Borough (roads)
- Plainfield Township (infrastructure, roadways)
- Stockertown Borough (park, recreational trail)
- Tatamy Borough (municipal park)
- Washington Township (infrastructure, roadways)
- West Easton (roadways)
Seven municipalities have also enacted disaster declarations, with Forks Township joining Bangor Borough and the townships of Lower Mount Bethel, Upper Mount Bethel, Palmer, Plainfield, and Washington.
The release said Palmer Township has suffered the most estimated damage so far, totaling around $3.7 million. This is followed be around $1.6 million worth of damages in Forks Township, and over $1 million in Lower Mount Bethel Township.
The cost-to-date also includes around $400,000 in damages to county bridges, and Northampton County Emergency Management Services has received residential damage reports from over 210 households across 12 municipalities.
Officials said Joint Assessment teams from the Federal Emergency Management Agency will be in the area next week, working collaboratively with PEMA, NCEMS, and local officials to tally damages for both individual and public assistance.
However, the county said assistance from the federal government is not guaranteed.
Northampton County must document at least $1,389,502.44 in accumulative public assistance damages.to qualify for relief aid. Pennsylvania must document a minimum of at least $23,014,795 for any county or the state to receive a federal disaster declaration.
Officials continues to urge affected residents and business owners to report their damages to their municipalities, and complete the NCEMS damage questionnaire on the NCEMS website.
A crisis clean-up hotline will also remain open through Friday, Aug. 4 to connect affected individuals with information and possible assistance. The line is accessible by calling 844-965-1386, and is not affiliated with any local, county, state, or federal agency.
Gov. Josh Shapiro, PennDOT Secretary Mike Carroll, PEMA Director Randy Padfield and other state officials joined Northampton County Executive Lamont McClure during a visit on Friday to survey the local impact.
Northampton County said the group toured damage on Little Creek Road in Lower Mount Bethel Township, as well as in Bangor.

SAN ANTONIO — School districts will be spending over a million dollars on security improvements after the Texas legislature passed a bill requiring armed security officers at every school, in addition to other safety measures.
San Antonio area superintendents discussed the challenges with local lawmakers at a State of Education Legislative Briefing Saturday morning. RootEd and Raise Your Hand Texas hosted the event.
Superintendents said they have already worked hard to secure local schools, but the requirement to have armed security at every school campus creates a partially unfunded mandate.
"Our overhead cost for one officer is an average of $55,000. We are a district that has the benefit of having a police department," East Central ISD Superintended Roland Toscano said. "Most school districts in the state are rural and rely on the county or cities to serve them."
Under the new requirements, school districts would get an additional $15,000 per campus and an extra $0.28 allotment per student. District leaders say it's not enough.
Toscano said hiring security for every campus would cost them $1.7 million.
"For reference, we spend $1.5 million on our total athletic programs," Toscano said.
SAISD Dr. Jaime Aquino said safety is always a paramount concern in their district and the district has already invested $20 million for both physical safety improvements and mental health resources. He said finding additional officers will be expensive and they don't have a lot of time to do it.
"It didn't give us a lot of runway. We have been studying the law and studying to see what is the best option for our community," Aquino said. "I have school police officers. We have have 52 or 53 but not enough for one in every single building."
Aquino said SAISD would get a total of $1.3 million in funding for the security improvements, as it has more than 90 campuses. He said paying for 41 additional police officers would cost the district $2.9 million.
Southwest ISD Superintendent Dr. Jeanette Ball said her district had already made safety improvements that put them in a $6 million budget deficit and the officer requirement will only make that worse.
"The 28 cents per students is nowhere near enough," Ball said.
Many school districts do have officers dedicated to high school and middle school campuses but will have one officer patrol between a cluster of elementary schools.
At the same time, superintendents are still frustrated that they didn't get an increase in funding to improve teacher pay. The Texas House of Representatives attempted to pass a pay increase but Texas Senators then tied that together with a school voucher bill near the end of the session. The Texas house continued to reject any voucher program, and the pay increase died along with it. Aquino said pay increase should not be attached to vouchers and schools will suffer without it.
"I'm loosing teachers every single day and nobody wants to go into the most noble profession because we cannot pay our teachers what they deserve. It is disheartening that we had a historic surplus and the state did not invest in our children and in our community," Aquino said.
Superintendent Ball said support staff are also having difficulty surviving without better pay.
"In order to make our system function we need bus drivers, our classroom aids, our custodians. We need all of them. Those groups of people are having a very hard time meeting their families needs and having a living wage and also having insurance, Ball said.
Texas Senator Jose Menendez, Representative Barbara Gervin-Hawkins, and Representative Steve Allison also spoke at the briefing.
While Texas Senators have attempted to tie teacher pay to a new voucher program, and that same voucher program will likely come up in a special session, none of the lawmakers were in favor of vouchers moving forward.
"(Vouchers) means everyone in this room and around the state is subsidizing private school tuition. We are literally going to give a coupon to people who can pick a private school," Menendez said. "You are just subsidizing people who's kids already go there."
Aquino said, under the last voucher plan which provided an $8,000 voucher, economically disadvantaged students would still not be able to afford a private school and would continue to be without a choice in education. | https://www.kens5.com/article/news/education/texas-safety-officer-requirement-will-cost-school-districts-millions-they-needed-money-for-teachers/273-a489cce4-0213-436a-a19a-fbcd441577ba | 2023-07-30T02:26:38 | 0 | https://www.kens5.com/article/news/education/texas-safety-officer-requirement-will-cost-school-districts-millions-they-needed-money-for-teachers/273-a489cce4-0213-436a-a19a-fbcd441577ba |
OSHKOSH, Wis. — Two people were killed and two others injured Saturday in a midair collision at an airport in Wisconsin.
A Rotorway 162F helicopter and an ELA Eclipse 10 gyrocopter collided shortly after noon local time at Wittman Regional Airport in Oshkosh, authorities said. The aircraft belonged to individuals attending the Experimental Aircraft Association's annual fly-in convention in Oshkosh but were not involved in the air show, a statement from the organization said.
The association, citing the Winnebago County Sheriff's Office, said two people were killed and two injured. The injured were taken to a local hospital and were in stable condition.
The association said further information would be released as additional details are confirmed. The National Transportation Safety Board is investigating the crash.
Separately, a plane earlier Saturday crashed into Lake Winnebago near Oshkosh, killing two people, according to the sheriff's office. The NTSB is also investigating that case, which involved a single-engine North American T-6 aircraft.

The Texas Rangers acquired three-time Cy Young Award winner Max Scherzer in a blockbuster trade with the New York Mets on Saturday night, an all-in move for the surprise leaders in the AL West, a person with knowledge of the deal said.
The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the deal hasn’t been announced.
The Rangers added the 39-year-old Scherzer with another former Mets pitcher with Cy Young credentials, two-time winner Jacob deGrom, sidelined by Tommy John elbow surgery, possibly all the way through the end of next season.
According to multiple reports, the deal nets New York one of the top Texas prospects in infielder Luisangel Acuña, the younger brother of Atlanta star Ronald Acuña Jr.
As part of the deal, Scherzer agreed to opt in on the final year of his contract in 2024 at $43 million, according to reports that also said the Mets were paying about $35 million of the remaining $58 million on the right-hander’s contract.
The Mets, one of baseball’s biggest disappointments, unloaded Scherzer two days after sending closer David Robertson to Miami for two minor leaguers.
New York began the season with the highest payroll in baseball at $353 million but started the day 17 games behind Atlanta in the NL East and 6 1/2 games back in the wild-card race.
Texas has emerged from six consecutive losing seasons to lead the AL West all but one day in three-time World Series champion Bruce Bochy’s first season as manager.
The Rangers made the first notable move of this trading season by getting once-dominant closer Aroldis Chapman from Kansas City in June. Chapman has stayed in a setup role with Will Smith handling most of the closing duties.
Now Texas has bolstered the rotation knowing deGrom might be out until Scherzer’s contract expires at the end of next season. | https://www.nbcsports.com/mlb/news/rangers-reportedly-acquire-scherzer-from-mets | 2023-07-30T02:26:56 | 0 | https://www.nbcsports.com/mlb/news/rangers-reportedly-acquire-scherzer-from-mets |
Rams running back Sony Michel has unexpectedly retired.
Coach Sean McVay announced Michel’s decision after the third practice of training camp. McVay said Michel informed the team Saturday morning that he was calling it a career.
Michel was expected to serve as the primary backup at the position, and McVay said the team will seek a veteran running back to join Kyren Williams and Zach Evans behind Cam Akers.
Michel, 28, played five NFL seasons, signing with the Rams as a free agent in the offseason after a year with the Chargers. Michel previously played for the Rams in 2021, winning a second Super Bowl title.
He earned his first Super Bowl ring in his rookie season with the Patriots after they made him a first-round pick.
Michel rushed for 3,243 yards and 18 touchdowns in his five NFL seasons. | https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/sony-michel-tells-rams-he-is-retiring | 2023-07-30T02:27:06 | 1 | https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/sony-michel-tells-rams-he-is-retiring |
Canadian police say 6 people have been killed in a small plane crash
CANMORE, Alberta (AP) — Canadian police say six people have died in a small plane crash west of Calgary, Alberta. The Royal Canadian Mounted Police say the plane with a pilot and five passengers aboard took off from Springbank Airport, just west of the city, on Friday night and was headed for Salmon Arm, British Columbia. It was reported overdue by the Joint Rescue Coordination Centre. Police say a Royal Canadian Air Force Hercules plane was dispatched to search for the missing aircraft and searchers located it on Mount Bogart, about 60 kilometers west of Calgary, by honing in on an emergency locator transmitter. | https://kion546.com/ap-colorado/2023/07/29/canadian-police-say-6-people-have-been-killed-in-a-small-plane-crash/ | 2023-07-30T02:28:21 | 0 | https://kion546.com/ap-colorado/2023/07/29/canadian-police-say-6-people-have-been-killed-in-a-small-plane-crash/ |
Los Angeles sheriff’s academy recruit who was struck by SUV on training run dies
LOS ANGELES (AP) — A Los Angeles County sheriff’s recruit who was struck by an SUV during a training run last year has died, authorities said.
Alejandro Martinez fought for his life for the past eight months, the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department said late Friday.
“Tragically, he was not able to fulfill his calling of helping others,” the department said in a statement. “He will forever live in our hearts & never be forgotten.”
About 75 recruits, from the Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department and several local police agencies, were running in formation on a street in the Los Angeles suburb of Whittier last November when an SUV veered into them. Twenty-five cadets were injured.
The SUV driver had been identified as a 22-year-old man from suburban Diamond Bar who suffered a minor injury. He was initially arrested for investigation but authorities later released him on grounds that more investigation was needed. His attorney said he has no animosity toward law enforcement and that it was a tragic accident. | https://kion546.com/ap-colorado/2023/07/29/los-angeles-sheriffs-academy-recruit-who-was-struck-by-suv-on-training-run-dies/ | 2023-07-30T02:28:27 | 1 | https://kion546.com/ap-colorado/2023/07/29/los-angeles-sheriffs-academy-recruit-who-was-struck-by-suv-on-training-run-dies/ |
California university protects treasured landscapes by adapting to warmer temperatures
California university protects treasured landscapes by adapting to warmer temperatures
BY JULIETTE GOODRICH AND MOLLY MCCREA
UPDATED ON: JULY 27, 2023 / 7:40 PM / CBS SAN FRANCISCO
DAVIS — Gardeners will likely have to adapt to prolonged, warmer weather in the future but they aren't alone as UC Davis is also transitioning their landscape to a climate-ready one, even offering some tips along the way.
Nori Reinert's garden is an oasis on a hot day: lush, green, dotted with flowers and buzzing with bees. She tends to the plants by learning what they need and adapting.
"Do the best you can. Sometimes I had to move things because I thought I chose the right place, and it turned out not to be true," explained Reinert.
However, gardens like Reinert's, as well as landscapes around the state, are facing difficult lessons brought on by climate change, such as higher temperatures, more frequent heat waves, intense storms, and prolonged droughts.
"So, we have entered unprecedented times, when the weather has become much more extreme," remarked UC Davis horticulturalist Rachel Davis.

"So, we have entered unprecedented times, when the weather has become much more extreme," remarked UC Davis horticulturalist Rachel Davis.https://imasdk.googleapis.com/js/core/bridge3.583.1_en.html#goog_373681795https://imasdk.googleapis.com/js/core/bridge3.583.1_en.html#goog_1442524386https://imasdk.googleapis.com/js/core/bridge3.583.1_en.html#goog_1657646476Top Videos00:0601:30Taylor Swift tour breathes new life into South Baytourism businesses
Davis is with U.S. Davis Arboretum and Public Garden. She is one of the many stewards who care for the living landscapes that grace the campus. But instead of fretting over global warming, the UC Davis team is boldly embracing the challenge.
"We want to make big steps towards impacting our future, to ameliorate what's happening with climate change," said Davis.
The university has adopted a plan known as the "Living Landscape Adaptation Plan." In part, the report is calling for the university to transition its current landscapes into a climate-ready campus.
Experts there know that by the end of the century, the Sacramento valley is projected to have a climate more akin to Barstow or Tucson.
"About 32% of our tree canopy on campus won't be able to survive those conditions. So, we have to start now," noted Davis.
Trees often take the longest to grow. Once established, they provide shade as well as habitat. The canopy of trees on the Davis campus cools the walkways and roads — and provides respite for all living creatures.
It also includes one of the university's crown jewels, a historic oak grove. The Shields Oak Grove, named for Judge Peter J. Shields, is one of the largest and most diverse in the country.
"You can hear the birds in the background. You can see the animals interacting with the trees. So, for me it was my own kind of nature (prescription)," commented Davis, as she took CBS News Bay Area on a tour.
To sustain a thriving canopy, the team is working on ways to conserve the valuable heritage trees. But they're also seeking to replace others on the campus that are bound to fail, with "climate-ready" ones.
The next stop on the tour was a busy and hot stretch of land, adjacent to a heavily traveled road. On this stretch of land, the university is testing different trees, transplanted from a mountain range in southwest Texas.
Once the root system gets established, there will be no more irrigation. The conditions are harsh.
"This is really rough, nasty soil," Davis remarked, pointing out the soil.
As the team waits to see which trees do best, the horticulturalist has this advice for anyone who has a garden: Please don't wait. Gardeners can start to slowly plant more climate-ready plants. UC Davis is happy to help by sharing the knowledge of experts.
The staff have tested many plants at the arboretum and in remote locations throughout the state. They came up with a list of 100 all-stars, attractive plants that thrive in a warmer climate and attract pollinators.
As for Nori Reinert, she's a volunteer at the Arboretum, and has learned many new lessons by listening to the staff. She's gradually updating her garden with more climate-friendly varieties.
"I have things that bloom in winter and they're wonderful," explained the gardener.
Her latest addition was a blue flowered catmint, which is an aromatic herb that is low maintenance, drought tolerant, climate-ready and just perfect for her garden. | https://kion546.com/news/2023/07/29/california-university-protects-treasured-landscapes-by-adapting-to-warmer-temperatures/ | 2023-07-30T02:28:33 | 1 | https://kion546.com/news/2023/07/29/california-university-protects-treasured-landscapes-by-adapting-to-warmer-temperatures/ |

Sinéad O’Connor told her kids what to do if she was found dead
Originally Published: 28 JUL 23 09:51 ET
Updated: 28 JUL 23 13:08 ETBy Lisa Respers France, CNN
(CNN) — Sinéad O’Connor knew the value of her music legacy.
In a 2021 interview with People magazine to promote her memoir “Rememberings,” O’Connor said she had explained to her children the importance of protecting her music and finances.
To that end, she said she told them to call her accountant before they telephoned 911 should she ever be found dead.
“See, when the artists are dead, they’re much more valuable than when they’re alive,” she told the publication. “Tupac has released way more albums since he died than he ever did alive, so it’s kind of gross what record companies do.”
“That’s why I’ve always instructed my children since they were very small, ‘If your mother drops dead tomorrow, before you called 911, call my accountant and make sure the record companies don’t start releasing my records and not telling you where the money is,’” she further explained.
The Irish singer died this week after being found unresponsive at a home in London. She was 56.
No cause of death has been released, but London police said Thursday it was not being treated as suspicious.
O’Connor was the mother of four children. Her 17-year-old son Shane died last year after going missing in the days prior.
She was a vocalist known for her pure and crisp voice, paired with exceptional songwriting abilities that evoked her views on politics, spirituality, history and philosophy.
Her first album, “The Lion and the Cobra,” was released to critical acclaim in 1987, but it was O’Connor’s 1990 sophomore album, “I Do Not Want What I Haven’t Got” which broke her through as a well-known artist.

Lost in translation: How New Zealand’s plan for bilingual road signs took an unexpected turn
By Chris Lau, CNN
(CNN) — It was meant to be an inclusive gesture to New Zealand’s indigenous Maori community. But plans to introduce bilingual road signs featuring both the English and te reo Maori languages have sparked a divisive, racially charged debate ahead of the country’s looming general election.
New Zealand – or Aotearoa as it is known to the Maori – recently hosted a public consultation on whether to include te reo Maori on 94 types of road signs, including for place names, speed limits, warnings and expressway advisories.
The idea, according to the national Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency (whose name means “traveling together as one”), is to promote “cultural understanding and social cohesion” with the Maori community, which makes up almost a fifth of New Zealand’s population of 5.15 million.
But the idea hasn’t gone down well with right-wing opposition parties, who have attacked the signs claiming they will jeopardize road safety. An extra language will mean less space for the English words, the theory goes, and smaller type will be harder for motorists to read.
“Signs need to be clear. We all speak English, and they should be in English,” the main opposition National Party’s spokesman Simeon Brown told reporters, insisting the signs could confuse people “traveling at speed.”
That claim prompted criticism from the ruling Labour Party government, with Prime Minister Chris Hipkins accusing the opposition of thinly disguised racial politics. “I’m not entirely sure where they are going with this unless it’s just an outright dog whistle,” he said.
While the National Party has since insisted it is not opposed to bilingual signs “per se” – rather, it says, it wants the government to prioritize other things like fixing potholes and improving traffic networks – the issues has sparked heated debate in the run up to the vote in October where Labour are facing a tough fight to hold onto power.
New life for a once dying language
For many in the Maori community, the plan is as much about signposting and preserving their cultural heritage as it is about understanding road directions.
Slightly less than a quarter of New Zealand’s 892,200 Maori speak te reo Maori as one of their first languages, according to the latest government data.
While opponents use this as an argument against the signs – pointing out that 95% of New Zealanders speak English according to the most recent census in 2018 – supporters use the same data as an argument in favor.
Part of the reason that te reo Maori is not so widely spoken is that back in New Zealand’s colonial era there were active efforts to stamp it out. The Native Schools Act 1867 required schools to teach in English where possible and children were often physically punished for speaking te reo Maori.
That led to a decline in the language that the New Zealand government of today is trying to reverse. It wants to preserve the language as part of the country’s cultural heritage and sees bilingual signs as one way of encouraging its use.
As Maori language expert Awanui Te Huia, from the Victoria University of Wellington, put it: “Having bicultural signage allows us to see our language as part of our daily surroundings and contributes to the development of a bilingual national identity.”
To this end the government in 2018 launched a five-year plan aimed at revitalizing the language. Five years ago just 24% of New Zealanders were able to speak “more than a few words or phrases” of te reo Maori; by 2021 that had risen to 30%.
Over the same period, support for bilingual signs rose from 51% to 56%.
The longer term vision is that by 2040, 85% of New Zealanders will value te reo Maori as a key part of their nationality; 1 million people will be able to speak the basics, and that 150,000 Maori ages 15 or above will use it as much as English.
For Professor Tania Ka’ai, director of The International Centre for Language Revitalisation at Auckland University of Technology, bilingual signs are at least a move in the right direction.
“I would describe it as a ‘work in progress’ because the language is still at risk of dying and it does not deserve to die – no language does,” Ka’ai said.
Are bilingual signs safe?
While the transport agency acknowledges some people have “safety concerns” over the plan, it points to the example of Wales in the United Kingdom, where it says signs featuring both English and Welsh have managed to “improve safety” by catering to speakers of the two most common local languages.
It also says the parallel between New Zealand and Wales will be “particularly salient if te reo Maori becomes understood more widely in the future” – as the government is hoping.
Several other experts have downplayed the suggestion bilingual signs pose a hazard. Even so, the issue is not entirely clear cut.
Kasem Choocharukul, an engineering scholar who specializes in traffic behavior, told CNN there is no evidence that bilingual road signs in themselves negatively impact a driver’s comprehension.
However, design and placement of road signs, as well as the languages and the context in which they are used, have to be treated with care, said Kasem, associate dean of the engineering faculty of Chulalongkorn University in Thailand.
Research by the University of Leeds suggests road signs consisting of four lines, or more, are likely to slow drivers’ response time significantly.
Kasem said that in cases where signs featured multiple languages all based on the same alphabet – for instance, both Welsh and English are based on the Latin alphabet – greater care was needed to differentiate them, such as by using different colors or font sizes.
“The primary objective of these standards is to guarantee that all road signs are unambiguous, uniform, and legible to all,” he said.
Essentially, poor design can be dangerous, not multiple languages, if done badly.
A tale of two languages
The example of Wales – situated more than 10,000 miles away from New Zealand – isn’t as random as it may seem.
Commentators say there are a host of uncomfortable parallels between the fortunes of te reo Maori and Welsh, which was also once in danger of dying out but has since witnessed a resurgence.
At the same time as 19th century European settlers in New Zealand were punishing students for speaking te reo Maori, the British government was actively discouraging the use of the Welsh language, or Cymraeg, in the wake of widespread social unrest.
In 1847 (20 years before New Zealand’s Native Schools Act) a British government report into Welsh linked the language to stupidity, sexual promiscuity and unruly behavior, prompting a drive to remove the language from local schools.
This led to the notorious punishment known as the Welsh Nots. These were planks of wood with the initials W.N. on them that would be hung around the necks of students caught speaking the language in school.
The turning point for Welsh came a century later, following a series of civil disobedience campaigns by the Welsh Language Society in the 1960s. One of these campaigns involved activists defacing and removing English-only signs on streets and roads. Bilingual road signs began to spring up.
Three decades later, and the British Parliament was actively encouraging the use of Welsh.
In 1993, it passed the Welsh Language Act to ensure the language shares the same status as English during day-to-day business in Wales. The language is now spoken by more than 900,000 people in Wales, out of a population of more than 3 million.
James Griffiths, author of “Speak Not: Empire, Identity and the Politics of Language” and a former CNN journalist, said Wales was a prime example of how sound policies could revive a native language, but he noted that, as in New Zealand, there had been resistance from some quarters.
“I think for a lot of people, if they speak the language of the majority, they don’t appreciate the type of recognition and representation of having it on road signs,” he said.
Across the Irish Sea, bilingual signs bearing both Irish Gaelic and English have existed in the Republic of Ireland dating back to the start of the 20th century.
The Hawaii comparison
Other commentators draw parallels to how the US state of Hawaii has used road signs to encourage use of Olelo Hawai’i which, like te reo Maori, is a Polynesian language.
Before the passing of the Hawaii State Constitutional Convention in 1978, which made Hawaiian an official language of the the state, there had been concerns it might go extinct.
In the 1980s, teaching of Hawaiian in schools began to pick up momentum and parents began making greater efforts to pass the language on to later generations, said Puakea Nogelmeier, professor emeritus of Hawaiian Language at the University of Hawaii.
This momentum continues to build to this day, with Hawaii’s Department of Transportation last year moving to introduce diacritical markings such as the okina and kahako – dots and lines that indicate glottal stops or longer vowels – to its road signs to help non-native Hawaiian speakers grasp correct pronunciations.
According to a local government survey in 2016, about 18,000 residents now speak Hawaiian at home in a state with a population of more than 1.4 million.
But Nogelmeier says that while it has become more common to hear conversations conducted in Olelo Hawai’i, the battle to revive the language is far from over.
Unlike in New Zealand, where the Maori people reached an agreement with the New Zealand government to preserve te reo Maori under the Maori Language Act 2016, he says the movement in Hawaii is driven primarily by the community, making the cause “more decorative than functional” and akin to “a bit of a hobby.”
Nogelmeier also says that efforts in Hawaii are largely limited to using Olelo Hawai’i for place names, rather than more complicated linguistic uses.
He should know: On Hawaiian buses, it is Nogelmeier’s voice that calls out the names of stops in the local language.
Lost in translation
Using indigenous place names also allows outsiders to have a better understanding of how to pronounce words and boost tourism.
Both Wales and New Zealand have some famous tongue-twisters for those unfamiliar with the local language.
Llanfairpwllgwyngyll – or to give it its full title Llanfair-pwllgwyngyll-gogery-chwyrn-drobwll-llan-tysilio-gogo-goch – is a little village on the Welsh island of Anglesey and lays claim to being the longest town name in Europe.
That however it is dwarfed by New Zealand’s own Taumatawhakatangihangakoauauotamateaturipukakapikimaungahoronukupokaiwhenuakitanatahu, a hill near Hawke’s Bay which prides itself as the world’s longest place name.
With New Zealand having wrapped up its public consultation on the signs at the end of June, one other challenge remains should the plan go ahead: ensuring there aren’t any translation bloopers.
One road sign in Wales made national headlines in 2008 when local council officials sought a translation for a road sign that was meant to say: “No entry for heavy goods vehicles. Residential site only.”
Their mistake was to email the in-house translation service and not scrutinize its reply too closely.
Officials requested a sign that read: “Nid wyf yn y swyddfa ar hyn o bryd. Anfonwch unrhyw waith i’w gyfieithy.”
Only later did they realize that is the Welsh for: “I am not in the office at the moment. Send any work to be translated.”

Colts star Jonathan Taylor requests a trade; cornerback Eli Apple signs with Miami
Taylor and Apple are two NFL players with local ties to make waves on Saturday.
Salem, N.J., native Jonathan Taylor wants out of Indianapolis.
The running back, who is in the midst of a contract dispute with the Colts, officially requested a trade on Saturday after he met with Colts owner Jim Irsay.
Irsay stated Saturday night the Colts would not honor Taylor’s request, according to MMQB’s Albert Breer.
Taylor’s conflict with Colts management is the latest in a saga of heated running back contract negotiations this offseason. The growing conflict has led the NFL Players Association to discuss whether the NFL should change its franchise tag system to remove position assignments.
Earlier this week, Irsay tweeted his oppostion to this idea.
This comment sparked a response from Taylor’s agent, Malki Kawa.
Taylor currently is on the Colts’ physically unable to perform list and is unable to practice with the team. Taylor, who two years ago was the NFL’s leading rusher, is coming off a season in which he recorded 861 yards and four rushing touchdowns on 192 carries.
Philly native Eli Apple, who attended Eastern High School in Voorhees, was another player with local ties to make headlines on Saturday. The cornerback, who started 15 games for the Bengals last season and recorded 49 tackles and eight passes defended, agreed to terms with the Miami Dolphins. Apple fills a void in the Dolphins’ defensive backfield after Jalen Ramsey went down with a knee injury at practice on Thursday and underwent a full meniscus repair. Ramsey signed with the Dolphins over the offseason, and is now expected to be out until December. | https://www.inquirer.com/eagles/nfl-trade-rumors-jonathan-taylor-20230729.html | 2023-07-30T02:29:04 | 0 | https://www.inquirer.com/eagles/nfl-trade-rumors-jonathan-taylor-20230729.html |
Democrat congressman acknowledges it's 'clear' Hunter Biden broke the law: 'Should be held accountable'
Connecticut Congressman Jim Himes said Hunter Biden 'should be held accountable'
A Democratic congressman admitted that it's "clear" Hunter Biden broke the law during an interview on Friday.
Connecticut Congressman Jim Himes took a swipe at Republicans Friday night before acknowledging the first son’s legal troubles.
"Let me say something that you never heard a Republican member of Congress say in the four years of the Trump administration, which is that if Hunter Biden broke the law, he should be prosecuted," Himes said on MSNBC. "And it is clear that he broke the law with respect to taxes and possibly the ownership of a handgun. He should be held accountable for that."
Himes criticized Republicans for not speaking out against former President Donald Trump when he was indicted, but also acknowledged that Hunter Biden should be held accountable if he used his father’s influence to commit crimes.
"If he traded on his father’s influence, he should be held accountable for that. And I’m emphasizing this because you never, ever heard a Republican say the same thing about Donald Trump or his family," Himes argued.
The Democratic congressman argued there was no evidence that President Biden colluded with his son on any crimes, but insinuated that any evidence should be taken seriously if it arises.
"Now, to the question about impeachment, there is today zero evidence, zero evidence that Joe Biden, the president of the United States, knew about what his son was doing. If, if he did know about it, if he participated in that, then that is a very different conversation," Himes added.
DOJ OFFERS HUNTER BIDEN INVESTIGATOR FOR TESTIMONY BEFORE THE HOUSE
Hunter, who is still under federal investigation, pleaded not guilty to two misdemeanor tax counts of willful failure to pay federal income tax on Wednesday. He was set to plead guilty as part of a deal, but the plea deal fell through.
The White House has stated that President Biden is supporting his son throughout the investigation.
"Hunter Biden is a private citizen, and this was a personal matter for him. As we have said, the president, the first lady — they love their son and they support him as he continues to rebuild his life," White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre previously said. "This case was handled independently, as all of you know, by the Justice Department under the leadership of a prosecutor appointed by the former president, President Trump."

After months of warnings from tech executives about the dangers of artificial intelligence, the Federal Bureau of Investigation has a new list of concerns.
The agency's biggest fears are not only about what the technology does but also about who is using it.
During a rare background briefing call with reporters, a senior FBI official, who even acknowledged that they haven't done significant outreach on the topic of AI, described a pretty concerning situation, or a "threat landscape," as the FBI calls it.
He said that China is looking to steal U.S. AI technology and data for AI programs and then use it not just to advance their own AI programs but to influence Americans.
He also said that the FBI is closely monitoring the role that AI may play in the 2024 election and is concerned about the spread of disinformation and deep fake videos.
He said that criminals and terrorists are seeking AI to simplify the production of dangerous chemicals and biological substances to increase their potency.

Scripps News asked about explosives, and this official said that a variety of criminal and national security actors, from violent extremists to traditional terrorists, are using AI to try to come up with ways to create different types of explosives.
He said, "There have been people who have successfully elicited recipes or instructions for creating explosives."
He also said that AI is a force multiplier for crafting fishing e-mails and for using it in other cyberattacks. He says that the FBI has found AI-generated websites that are infected with malware to target users’ sites that have more than a million followers.
The bottom line, the FBI says, there are fewer people, less expertise, and less time needed for a lot of these threats, so there's a much lower bar or barrier for entry here.
Furthermore, the FBI is spending some of its time working on being able to determine what is synthetically AI-generated content online. They are working with private companies, and they're working with academia. But as this official said, this technology is advancing really quickly, and it is hard to stay on top of it.

Colts running back Jonathan Taylor requests trade
INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — Indianapolis Colts star running back Jonathan Taylor has requested a trade after meeting with Colts owner Jim Irsay, NFL Insider Ian Rapoport reports.

Taylor previously told media that he wanted a contract extension and intended to be a Colt for life. However, Taylor’s relationship with the Colts started souring after a back and forth between Taylor’s agent and Irsay on Twitter over NFL running backs wanting to get paid more.
NFL Running Back situation- We have negotiated a CBA,that took years of effort and hard work and compromise in good faith by both sides..to say now that a specific Player category wants another negotiation after the fact,is inappropriate. Some Agents are selling ‘bad faith’..

Taylor and Irsay met for about an hour on Irsay’s bus in the Grand Park Sport Campus in Westfield, Indiana before Taylor publicly requested a trade.

Irsay stated that the 2023 season will impact contract negotiations and Taylor’s injuries have been taken into consideration when it comes to his contract.

Taylor was drafted by the Colts with the 41st pick in the second round of the 2020 NFL Draft after rushing for over 6,000 yards and scoring 55 total touchdowns at the University of Wisconsin. Taylor rushed for 1,169 yards, scored 11 rushing touchdowns, and scored 1 receiving touchdown in his rookie year while splitting duties with former Colts running back Nyheim Hines.
The former Wisconsin Badger exploded in his sophomore year, running for a league-leading 1,811 yards, rushing for a league-leading 18 touchdowns, and catching 2 touchdowns. Taylor was unanimously named to the First-Team All-Pro team, and he was named to the Pro Bowl after receiving the most votes in fan Pro Bowl voting.
2023 was a down year for Taylor. He only rushed for 861 yards and scored 4 total touchdowns on the year, while missing three games with an ankle injury. | https://www.wishtv.com/sports/indianapolis-colts/colts-running-back-jonathan-taylor-requests-trade/ | 2023-07-30T02:31:17 | 0 | https://www.wishtv.com/sports/indianapolis-colts/colts-running-back-jonathan-taylor-requests-trade/ |
