Naomi Osaka has shown glimpses of her thunderous best after being tested in a successful WTA Tour return in Brisbane.
Japan's former world No.1 and four-time major champion beat Germany's Tamara Korpatsch 6-3 7-6 (11-9) in the first round of the Brisbane International on Monday.
It was her first WTA victory in 15 months and first match since the arrival of her daughter in July.
The 26-year-old thumped 36 winners, mostly on the forehand side, and added 29 unforced errors in a match that stretched almost two hours.
There were plenty of smiles but some frustration when she was broken while serving for the match at 5-3, world No.83 Korpatsch then saving two match points and earning two set points of her own in a tense tiebreak to decide a 70-minute second set.
Osaka's big forehand eventually dug her out of that hole and she enjoyed signing autographs and taking selfies with fans post-match.
"The last couple of years I played, before I had my daughter, I didn't return as much love as I was given," she said, admitting there were plenty of nerves.
"That's what I want to do in this chapter.
"I appreciate people coming out and knowing and cheering for me ... it feels really surreal sometimes."
Osaka started brilliantly, breaking Korpatsch to love in the first game and cruising in a 38-minute opening set.
She'll meet former world No.1 Karolina Pliskova, a two-time winner in Brisbane, in the second round.
Australia's Arina Rodionova has already progressed to the second round while fit-again Daria Saville will attempt to join them when she plays Ukraine's Dayana Yastremska later on Monday on Pat Rafter Arena.
Rain has stopped play on outside courts on Monday, with an all-Australian clash Kimberly Birrell and Olivia Gadecki among those scheduled.
Reigning Australian Open champion Aryna Sabalenka, Elena Rybakina, Jelena Ostapenko, Victoria Azarenka, Sofia Kenin and Sloane Stephens are also in the 64-player women's draw, one of the key tune-up events for the Australian Open in Melbourne. | https://www.perthnow.com.au/sport/tennis/new-mum-osaka-tested-in-victory-on-tour-return-c-13080768 | 2024-01-01T03:50:22Z |
FREEPORT, N.Y. — Authorities in New York are looking for the person responsible for stabbing a dog 17 times.
The dog, a 2-year-old Terrier mix who has since been named Cornell, was injured by a sharp object on Nov. 27, Nassau County District Attorney Anne Donnelly told WNBC-TV. He survived the attack but had a long road to recovery.
A woman claimed to have found the dog bleeding on a street in the Long Island village of Freeport, according to the television station. The dog did not have a collar or an identification chip, Donnelly said. There was no evidence that Cornell was part of a dogfighting ring, WNBC reported.
The woman who found the dog is not a suspect, Donnelly said.
“Cornell can’t tell us his story. He can’t tell us what happened. He can’t tell us why or when something like this happened to him,” Donnelly told WABC-TV. “We just know he was found bleeding from the 17 wounds.”
Dog found stabbed 17 times in Nassau County, $5K reward offered for information https://t.co/1rJiYJmwbx pic.twitter.com/HfMGPIGtas
— Eyewitness News (@ABC7NY) December 29, 2023
“I’ve seen some pretty horrific things but the extent of the amount of times he was stabbed is unimaginable how someone could ever do that,” Ashley Behrens, acting director of the Town of Hempstead Animal Shelter, told WPIX-TV.
The dog is now walking, jogging and thriving, barely a month after he was attacked, according to the television station.
Two-year-old terrier mix Cornell is walking, jogging, and thriving just one month after being found with 17 stab wounds across his body, according to county officials.
“Some of the stab wounds caused his lungs to leak air between his body cavity and his lungs, and they had to be drained a number of times,” Donnelly said, according to WABC. “The other stab wounds were cleaned, were either stapled or sewn.”
Donnelly said there were currently no suspects, but she said her office is seeking the public’s help to find out what happened to Cornell.
“I believe this was somebody’s pet. He’s too healthy and in too good shape to have been a street dog,” Donnelly said, according to WNBC. “We need the public’s health to help us find who did this to Cornell.”
Gary Rogers of the Nassau County SPCA echoed Donnelly’s comments.
“People start out on animals before they move into human beings,” Rogers told WPIX. “Somebody in the community knows what happened. You got to keep your community safe. You need to call the DA’s office and tell them who did this because next time you’re going to look at this it could be somebody else.”
Nassau County SPCA is offering a $5,000 reward for information that leads to an arrest and conviction, WABC reported. | https://www.krmg.com/news/trending/dog-survives-after-being-stabbed-17-times/7UTCMVE4B5H7XPWUMMAC6N3X3U/ | 2024-01-01T03:50:23Z |

15 hurt in AL factional clash during Ferdous's election campaign
At least 15 people were injured following a clash between supporters of two groups of Awami League this afternoon during the election campaign of actor Ferdous Ahmed in Hatirpool of the capital.
AL candidate Ferdous is contesting the upcoming election from the Dhaka-10 constituency.
The injured took treatment from Dhaka Medical College Hospital (DMCH), said Inspector Bacchu Mia, in-charge of the DMCH police outpost.
Dhaka city AL's Ward-18 unit Labour Affairs Secretary Mosharaf Hossain Raja said he and his supporters joined the election campaign of Ferdous around 1:45pm. When the campaign procession started moving towards Central Road from Hatirpool, Central Road Unit AL President Imam Hossain Manzil and his supporters attacked them.
They beat their activists with sticks, Mosharaf alleged.
The Daily Star could not reach Manzil for comments in this regard.
The injured include Jony Babu, 30, Anindra Chowdhury, 23, Shishir, 35, Russell, 30, Abdul Jalil,38, Sohel Khan, 28, Mahi, 25, Ibrahim, 35, Alif, 35, and Ujjal Hossain 30.
Aminul Islam, officer-in-charge of New Market Police Station, said he was unaware of the incident.
Wishing anonymity, a police official of DMP's Ramna Division told this correspondent that they have heard about the incident.
He said an argument started between the leaders and activists of two AL groups about standing in front of the campaign march. At one point it turned into a clash between the groups.
The official said no action was taken as no one complained about it. | https://www.thedailystar.net/news/bangladesh/national-election-2024/news/15-hurt-al-factional-clash-during-ferdouss-election-campaign-3506511 | 2024-01-01T03:50:24Z |
The round-robin phase continues on Day 5 of the 2024 United Cup.
In Sydney, Greece and Chile will start the day's proceedings. The latter team lost their first group tie against Canada, so this is a must-win bout for them. However, with top 10 players Stefanos Tsitsipas and Maria Sakkari anchoring the Greeks, they'll be the favorites to walk away as the victors.
The evening session will have Croatia and Netherlands battling it out. The latter team defeated Norway to stand atop Group F at the moment. Over in Perth, Serbia and the Czech Republic will lock horns with each other.
Novak Djokovic ensured Serbia were off to a winning start as his heroics in singles and mixed doubles ensured them victory over China on Sunday. Besting the Czechs with a significant margin could push them at the top of Group E.

MIAMI-DADE COUNTY, Fla. — A South Florida business owner is accused of shooting a landscaper on Friday after the worker allegedly blew leaves onto his property, authorities said.
According to Miami-Dade County online booking records, Claudio Arrendell, 52, was charged with one count of attempted murder.
Police said that Arrendell, the owner of P&P Auto Tire Shop in northwestern Miami-Dade County, got into an argument with the landscaper, WTVJ-TV reported.
A judge gave the business owner no bond on Saturday, after allegedly shooting a landscaper over leaves blown onto his property. Here's the latest: https://t.co/pCUhEtiKi5

Police said the landscaper was working at a property across the street from the business, and Arrendell was allegedly upset that the leaves from the workers were blowing onto his property, according to the television station.
According to police, Arrendell allegedly pulled out a gun and shot the landscaper, WSVN-TV reported.
The victim, who has not been identified, was transported to Jackson Memorial Hospital and was originally listed in critical condition, according to WFOR-TV. The victim has since been upgraded to stable condition, investigators told the television station.
During Arrendell’s court appearance on Saturday, the judge ruled that Arrendell would be held without bond, according to WPLG-TV. | https://www.krmg.com/news/trending/tire-shop-owner-accused-shooting-landscaper-who-blew-leaves-onto-property/JTNTIP5L75ARBN5YW6AF2T5ZU4/ | 2024-01-01T03:50:30Z |

27 injured in pre-polls violence in three districts
At least 27 people were injured in pre-polls violence in three districts since last night.
Supporters of AL candidate and independent candidate clashed sporadically at Madariganj Bazar of Rajshahi-4 constituency today leaving some 25 people injured.
The clashes broke at 3.30pm when supporters of the AL candidate Abul Kalam Azad and the incumbent MP and independent candidate Enamul Haque came face to face, said Abdul Matin, OC of Bagmara police station.
The feuding groups chased each other for more than an hour turning the areas into a battle field, said the witnesses.
Later, the police and BGB teams took control of the area, police and witnesses said.
Contacted, Azad's election agent Mahbubur Rahman said their election camp came under attack and boat symbol activists were beaten by the supporter of the independent candidate. Later, the victims regrouped and carried out counter attack.
At least 12 of our men suffered injuries from brick chips, added.
However, Enamul Haque denied the allegation and said the clash broke out when Azad's supporters attacked his campaign procession.
He said some 13 of his supporters were injured. Some of them have been admitted to Rajshahi Medical College Hospital. The others took first aide at local clinics.
In Naogaon-5 constituency, a supporter of independent candidate Dewan Sekar Ahmed Shishan was stabbed allegedly by supporters of AL candidate Nizam Uddin Jalil last night.
The victim, Rezaul Karim, 60, is former Relief and Social Welfare Secretary of Naogaon municipal unit Awami League.
Locals said Rezaul was returning home riding on a motorbike after conducting election campaign. When he reached at Bottoli intersection area around 8:00pm, a group of people intercepted and stabbed him multiple times.
Later, locals rescued him and took to Naogaon General Hospital.
As his physical condition deteriorated, he was referred to Rajshahi Medical College Hospital for better treatment.
Shishan alleged that boat symbol's supporters carried out the attack.
Jalil could not be contacted over phone.
One of Jalil's key campaigners Mahbbul Haq Komal, also president of Naogaon Sadar upazila unit AL, denied the allegation.
Police have launched an investigation into the incident.
In Jhenaidah-2 constituency, an AL leader, who is campaigning for the independent candidate, was beaten allegedly by supporters of AL-nominated candidate last night.
The victim is Tofazzal Hossain Tufa Biswas, president of Ganna unit AL under Jhenaidah Sadar upazila.
Tofazzal alleged that he was conducting campaign at Sankarpur village on Saturday night for Naser Shariar Zahedi, the independent candidate.
At that time, some supporters of AL candidate assaulted him, alleged Tofazzal at a press conference yesterday.
Tahjib Alam Siddique could not be contacted over phone.
Jhenaidah Sadar Police Station's OC Shaheen Uddin Tofazzal filed a general diary in connection with the incident and police are investigating into it. | https://www.thedailystar.net/news/bangladesh/national-election-2024/news/27-injured-pre-polls-violence-three-districts-3507451 | 2024-01-01T03:50:32Z |

Twitter backer knocks billions off its value after Musk’s outburst
By James Warrington
An investor in X, formerly called Twitter, has written down the value of its stake by $US2.85 billion ($4.2 billion) after its owner Elon Musk told boycotting advertisers to “go f--- yourself”.
Fidelity, which helped Musk buy the company for $US44 billion ($65 billion) in 2022, now believes it is worth 71.5 per cent less than at the time of purchase.
The US investment giant had already slashed the value of its investment by 65 per cent at the end of October but deepened the discount in November. It came in the same month that Musk launched a tirade against advertisers.
Speaking at a New York Times conference, Musk claimed a boycott by advertisers was going to “kill” the company, adding, “If somebody is going to try to blackmail me with advertising, blackmail me with money, go f--- yourself.”
Apple, IBM and Disney are among the major brands to cut ties with the social media platform, amid concerns about lax moderation under Musk and the billionaire’s freewheeling personal style.
Fidelity’s valuation cut, which was first reported by Axios, gives the company a notional value of just $US12.5 billion and suggests X has lost $US2.85 billion of worth in the eyes of Fidelity in just four weeks.
The investment group, which contributed more than $US300 million to Musk’s takeover, does not disclose how it values privately held companies. Other shareholders may value their stakes differently.
However, X’s own internal share plan for staff valued the company at just $US19 billion in October – less than half the sum Musk paid for it.
X has undergone a turbulent period under the ownership of the Tesla billionaire. The debt-fuelled takeover has left the company struggling to break even and Musk has slashed thousands of jobs and introduced subscription fees in response.
Worsening the debt crisis is the reluctance of advertisers to work with the platform since the takeover.
X is believed to have lost 60 per cent of its advertisers after the takeover amid concerns brands were appearing alongside harmful material.
The European Commission has opened an investigation into the company over its alleged role in disseminating propaganda relating to terrorist group Hamas.
Musk has also been accused of personally promoting antisemitic and racist conspiracy theories, although he has insisted he is against antisemitism of any kind.
Linda Yaccarino, who replaced Musk as chief executive in June, has been scrambling to revive revenue and has staged a charm offensive with advertisers in a bid to win back trust.

Colorado mom wanted for killing 2 of her children arrested in United Kingdom
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (KKTV/Gray News) - A mother wanted in connection with the deaths of two of her children has been arrested in the United Kingdom, according to police.
Colorado Springs Police say Kimberlee Singler was taken into custody without incident.
On December 19, just after midnight, police responded to a call about a burglary in the 5300 block of Palomino Ranch Point.
When police arrived, they found two children, a 9-year-old girl and a 7-year-old boy, dead inside the residence.
Singler and an 11-year-old girl were found with injuries and taken to a local hospital. All three children are Singler’s children.
As the investigation continued, a warrant for Singler’s arrest was issued on December 26. The arrest warrant included charges of murder in the first degree, child abuse, and assault.
A $10,000,000 bond was set by the court.

Don’t shoot guns into air on New Year’s Eve, officials say
Law enforcement officials are urging Louisianans to refrain from firing guns into the air to celebrate New Year’s Eve.
Celebratory gunfire may be a common way to ring in the New Year, but the dangerous tradition is against the law in Louisiana. If caught, violators could face up to $1,000 in fines and/or two years behind bars.
Iberville Parish Sheriff Brett Stassi is reminding parish residents they should avoid shooting into the air because what goes up has to come down. Bullets fired into the sky can fall back down fast enough to seriously hurt or kill someone.
The Baton Rouge Police Department is also urging citizens to avoid celebratory gunfire. In a statement about New Year’s Eve safety, the police department said, “Citizens are also strongly urged not to fire guns into the air, as the bullet will fall to the ground with sufficient velocity to damage property and injure or kill. Anyone found firing a gun into the air in Baton Rouge is subject to being arrested.”
While shooting guns into the air is illegal, people are allowed to shoot fireworks throughout Iberville Parish to ring in the New Year. For a list of locations where you can and can’t pop fireworks tonight, click here.
Read BRPD’s full New Year’s Eve safety statement below:
The Baton Rouge Police Department is urging residents to be cautious and responsible while ringing in the 2024 New Year. Citizens are reminded that fireworks of any kind are illegal throughout all of East Baton Rouge Parish and anyone found discharging fireworks will have them confiscated and is also subject to being charged with a criminal offense.
Citizens are also strongly urged not to fire guns into the air, as the bullet will fall to the ground with sufficient velocity to damage property and injure or kill. Anyone found firing a gun into the air in Baton Rouge is subject to being arrested.
Citizens are also urged to drink responsibly and not to drive if they have consumed alcohol. BRPD and all local area law enforcement agencies will have personnel out actively searching for drunk drivers.
Be safe and Happy New Year Baton Rouge!!!!!!

52 hurt in pre-polls violence
At least 52 people were injured in seven districts between Friday night and yesterday afternoon in incidents of pre-polls violence.
These incidents took place in Chattogram, Dhaka, Jashore, Naogaon, Pirojpur, Jhenidah, and Narayanganj.
In Chattogram-12 constituency, 20 activists supporting independent candidate Shamsul Haque Chowdhury were reportedly attacked in two separate incidents by alleged supporters of Awami League-nominated candidate Motaherul Islam Chowdhury.
Shamsul's younger brother, Mujibul Haque, said that the attackers, numbering between 40 and 50, armed with sticks and iron, targeted the campaign in the Shantir Hat area at 11:45am, leaving at least five people injured.
A subsequent attack occurred in the Kusumpura area at 4:30pm, where Shamsul and his supporters were allegedly fired upon, resulting in 15 activists sustaining injuries, added Mujibul.
Motaherul's election management committee chief, AKM Shamsuzzaman Chowdhury, denied the allegations, asserting that none of their supporters were involved.
Chattogram's Additional Superintendent of Police Ariful Islam said police have found evidence of vehicle vandalism but are still investigating the reported gunfire.
In Dhaka, an intra-party clash during the election campaign of Awami League-nominated candidate Ferdous Ahmed resulted in 15 people being injured in the Hatirpool area.
Dhaka City AL's Ward-18 unit Labour Affairs Secretary, Mosharaf Hossain Raja, said that their campaign procession was attacked by Central Road Unit AL President, Imam Hossain Manzil, and his supporters, using sticks yesterday at 1:45pm.
The clash left four to five people injured, and they received treatment at Dhaka Medical College Hospital.
Khandaker Jalal Uddin Mahmood, inspector of New Market Police Station, said no complaints were filed over this incident.
In Jashore-5 constituency, supporters of independent candidate Yakub Ali came under attack by alleged rivals, resulting in 15 people sustaining injuries.
Tariqul Islam, one of the injured, said around 20 people armed with sharp weapons and iron rods attacked Yakub Ali's election camp in Jhapa Donipara.
A case was filed against eight named individuals in connection with the incident, said Monirampur Police Station OC ABM Mehedi Masud.
In Naogaon-6 constituency, the election coordinator of independent candidate Omar Faruk was allegedly stabbed by supporters of Awami League-nominated candidate Anwar Hossain yesterday morning.
The victim, Chowdhury Golam Mostafa Badal, the vice president of Atrai upazila unit AL, was attacked at Sahebganj Rail Station.
Contacted, Anwar Hossain denied the allegations.
Police detained three individuals in this connection, said Jahurul Islam, OC of Atrai Police Station.
In Pirojpur-1 constituency, a supporter of Awami League-nominated candidate SM Rezaul Karim was injured in Bashbaria village under Pirojpur Sadar Upazila on Friday night.
Police are trying to trace the attackers, said Pirojpur's Additional Superintendent of Police Shaikh Mustafrzur Rahman.
In the Jhenidah-2 constituency, allegations arose as Tahaj Uddin Munshi said that supporters of Awami League-nominated candidate Tahjib Alom Siddique assaulted him for working in favour of independent candidate Naser Sahriar Alom Jahedi.
Tahjib Alom Siddique denied the allegations.
A General Diary (GD) has been filed in this regard, said Ziaur Rahman, OC of Harinakundo Police Station.
In Narayanganj-1 constituency, an election camp of Awami League-nominated candidate Golam Dastagir Gazi was reportedly torched by supporters of independent candidate Shajahan Bhuiyan at Kayetpara area in Rupganj upazila.
Police deployed additional forces to prevent further violence in the area, said Additional Superintendent of Police Abir Hossain.

There was an interesting post on Twitter the other day. Someone argued that many people needed higher incomes, but that increasing demands on employers was not the best way to achieve this.
The person, who lives in San Francisco, made the following comments about minimum wage, job numbers, and the affordability of business:
Raising the minimum wage always increases job losses, but there may be tradeoffs, like jobs lost versus better incomes for other workers;
A $20 minimum wage leaves small businesses to pick one of two options — to price increases that customers might not pay, or go out of business;
People assume that business owners have plenty of margin and could easily increase wages by reducing their profits;
Increasing minimum wages creates an incentive to automate low-wage jobs and as a result drive down costs and increase margins.
If the U.S. had any clear lesson during the pandemic, it was that when many citizens and businesses are under significant economic pressure beyond their control, prioritizing payments to them can help keep millions of people and many businesses (and the jobs they provide) afloat and able to move forward. The result is a quicker end to the problem, rather than, like with the Great Recession, seeing economic disruption for 10 years or more after the initial event.
But that is for a catastrophe, not an ongoing program. The Covid relief programs were also for businesses as well as citizens. Let’s touch on some of the points made. Rising minimum wages don’t necessarily involve loss of jobs — and even if they do, the country is at historically low levels of unemployment. There are businesses struggling because they can’t find employees to work, as the U.S. Chamber of Commerce has reported, and even if everyone in the labor pool took a job, there would still be a shortage of three million workers.
Below is a graph from the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis of total open jobs.
There are many aspects of the jobs that aren’t included in the graph. This is a national number that has tucked away within differences in geography, type of job, and needed skills of workers. Making any flat assumption is difficult. Seven years ago, there was debate over Seattle increasing its minimum wage to $13 and whether the number of restaurant jobs would decrease. As I wrote at the time, data suggested that they didn’t. They actually increased. That’s because in addition to a business absorbing the margin hit or charging people more, there can also be more people with more money who will spend it.
But some of the poster’s points are quite true. Many people do assume that companies have any amount of money necessary for raises. As I pointed out early in 2023, while many assumed that Starbucks
There must be a balance. Either a lot less going to the employees, a lot less going to those institutional shareholders that include pension funds and insurance companies using investment to pay future obligations to individuals, or a lot more coming from consumers via the costs of what they purchase at a local Starbucks.
That brings us to the original poster’s thought that government should pay basic standards of living, including basic medical care, food, clothing, and shelter. Perhaps, though as one works through the list, there will be big questions in some of these areas, like shelter, clothing, and food. Government picking the food, like government-supplied cheese to the poor as once was the case? Or maybe stipends to buy food, like SNAP benefits? Government standard issue clothing or a stipend for such? Government-run apartments? Or, again, stipends for such?
The stipend would seem the more logical solution. However, doing that to spare businesses would be a massive subsidy. Then why not push down wages further, if there’s going to be a Universal Income program?
It would immediately become a transfer of a company’s responsibilities to government, meaning the taxpayers. Businesses go out of business every day because they can’t compete or run their operations well enough to keep going. Keeping companies afloat through subsidies is bad for the economy and communities. You both get a backlog of more zombie companies that become dependent on handouts and large companies that can afford higher pay but just keep levels where they are and pocket the savings — because employees get enough between UI and work pay that they’ll be fine. | https://www.forbes.com/sites/eriksherman/2023/12/31/should-government-give-universal-income-or-employers-pay-more/ | 2024-01-01T03:50:43Z |
North Korea’s Kim orders military to ‘thoroughly annihilate’ US, South Korea if provoked
SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — North Korean leader Kim Jong Un ordered his military to “thoroughly annihilate” the United States and South Korea if provoked, state media reported Monday, after he vowed to boost national defense to cope with what he called an unprecedented U.S.-led confrontation.
Kim is expected to ramp up weapons tests in 2024 ahead of the U.S. presidential election in November. Many experts say he likely believes his expanded nuclear arsenal would allow him to wrest U.S. concessions if former President Donald Trump is reelected.
In a five-day major ruling party meeting last week, Kim said he will launch three more military spy satellites, produce more nuclear materials and develop attack drones this year in what observers say is an attempt to increase his leverage in future diplomacy with the U.S.
In a meeting on Sunday with commanding army officers, Kim said it is urgent to sharpen “the treasured sword” to safeguard national security, an apparent reference to his country’s nuclear weapons program. He cited “the U.S. and other hostile forces’ military confrontation moves,” according to the official Korean Central News Agency.
Kim stressed that “our army should deal a deadly blow to thoroughly annihilate them by mobilizing all the toughest means and potentialities without moment’s hesitation” if they opt for military confrontation and provocations against North Korea, KCNA said.
In his New Year’s Day address Monday, South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol said he will strengthen his military’s preemptive strike, missile defense and retaliatory capabilities in response to the North Korean nuclear threat.
“The Republic of Korea is building genuine, lasting peace through strength, not a submissive peace that is dependent on the goodwill of the adversary,” Yoon said, using South Korea’s official name.
At the party meeting, Kim called South Korea “a hemiplegic malformation and colonial subordinate state” whose society is “tainted by Yankee culture.” He said his military must use all available means including nuclear weapons to “suppress the whole territory of South Korea” in the event of a conflict.
South Korea’s Defense Ministry warned in response that if North Korea attempts to use nuclear weapons, South Korean and U.S. forces will punish it overwhelmingly, resulting in the end of the Kim government.
Experts say small-scale military clashes between North and South Korea could happen this year along their heavily armed border. They say North Korea is also expected to test-launch intercontinental ballistic missiles capable of reaching the mainland U.S. and other major new weapons.
In 2018-19, Kim met Trump in three rounds of talks on North Korea’s expanding nuclear arsenal. The diplomacy fell apart after the U.S. rejected Kim’s limited offer to dismantle his main nuclear complex in exchange for extensive reductions in U.S.-led sanctions.
Kim has since sought to modernize his weapons arsenal and strengthen North Korea’s relationships with China and Russia. KCNA said Kim and Chinese President Xi Jinping exchanged New Year’s Day messages on Monday on bolstering bilateral ties.
North Korea faces suspicions that it has supplied conventional arms for Russia’s war in Ukraine in return for sophisticated Russian technologies to enhance the North’s military programs.
Estimates of the size of North Korea’s nuclear arsenal vary, ranging from about 20-30 bombs to more than 100. Many foreign experts say North Korea still has some technological hurdles to overcome to produce functioning nuclear-armed ICBMs, though its shorter-range nuclear-capable missiles can reach South Korea and Japan.

Pig butchering is a fast-growing scam involving online romance, fake crypto returns, and human trafficking that is stealing millions of dollars from U.S. citizens. As victims in the U.S. find themselves humiliated and bankrupt, their families fail to benefit from generational wealth transfer. What makes this worse, this money is transferred overseas to transnational criminal organizations located in Myanmar and Cambodia using trafficked victims as modern-day slaves to execute the pig butchering scams online.
According to TRM Labs, a leading blockchain intelligence company, the FBI’s Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3) received more than 4,300 complaints related to pig butchering, with cumulative losses of over $400 Million. Reports from FBI field offices suggest that the crime wave of pig butchering is not slowing down either.
In an interview with Erin West, Deputy District Attorney in Santa Clara, California, I learned how she both discovered the pig butchering scam herself a couple of years ago. West used the discovery to pioneer a blueprint of how to prosecute this kind of case in the U.S. As a member of the Regional Enforcement Allied Computer Team (REACT) Task Force, West was involved in examining high tech crimes. When she came across her first pig butchering scam, West realized she would need the help of Binance, the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange, to uncover the circumstances of how this all worked. West said, “We sent a search warrant to Binance and they gave the information we requested. This helped us create a blueprint which we used to help 26 victims recover money. We taught that blueprint nationwide and victims are getting some help.”
West explained pig butchering is, “...another romance scam, which is a calculated systemic long con against the rest of the world resulting in massive wealth transfer to bad guys on the other side of the world.” According to West, “There needs to be a 'whole of government' solution to pig butchering."
The problem is only getting worse. While there are no specific numbers as to how many people are victims, West stated, “We are receiving 5-6 emails a day from people who are victims of pig butchering. The most recent victim lost $5 million dollars and that's not even the biggest amount one victim has lost to this scam.”
West has been devoting her energies to help raise awareness of this scam and the broader consequences to the rest of the nation. She pointed to how U.K. recently decided to sanction individuals and entities involved in pig butchering. West suggested the U.S. might want to take similar measures to help put more pressure on these criminal organizations overseas. “Fighting transnational crime feels like throwing eggs at a skyscraper...the U.S. could join in on the UK sanctions as well."
The U.S. will likely need to determine what kind of ‘whole of government’ effort needs to be established to push back on pig butchering scams, as a Deputy District Attorney in Santa Clara, California can only do so much. But West is off to a great start in raising awareness about pig butchering and her insights for this story are greatly appreciated. | https://www.forbes.com/sites/jasonbrett/2023/12/31/pig-butchering-crypto-scams-enrich-organised-crime-in-southeast-asia/ | 2024-01-01T03:50:49Z |
Alcohol suspected in New Year’s Eve crash killing Pitkin Man
PITKIN, La. (KPLC) - A single-vehicle crash on LA Hwy 113 at Earnest Thompson Road claims the life of a Pitkin man, 30-year-old Eric Robinson, according to Louisiana State Police Troop E.
LSP said the crash occurred just after 5 a.m. on Sunday, Dec. 31. The initial investigation revealed Robinson was traveling north driving a 2012 Nissan Armada on LA Hwy 113 when he drove off the road to the left into a ditch before overturning.
Robinson was not wearing a seatbelt during the crash and suffered serious injuries, according to LSP. He was transported to a local hospital where he later died.
While toxicology samples were collected and are are pending analysis, LSP suspects alcohol to be involved. This crash remains under investigation.
“Time and time again, Troopers witness preventable motor vehicle crashes. Impairment and lack of seat belt usage are primary causes of crashes across the state. Louisiana State Police urge motorists to have a plan in place that includes a designated driver when consuming alcohol. Alcohol can impair visual ability, alter the sense of time and space, impair fine motor skills, and decrease reaction times. Alcohol can begin to impair a person’s ability to safely operate a motor vehicle after just one drink. Please choose not to drive impaired or ride with an impaired driver, and always buckle up,” LSP said in a news release they provided on this crash.
In 2023, Troop E has investigated 55 fatal crashes, resulting in 61 deaths.

AL, JP can spend up to Tk 4.5cr each for electioneering
Although there are laws in place to limit the expenditure of political parties in electioneering ahead of polls, the Election Commission lacks a mechanism to monitor such spending, according to some EC officials.
According to the Representation of the People Order, 1972, a party that has fielded over 200 candidates can spend up to Tk 4.5 crore.
There are 266 candidates from Awami League and 265 from Jatiyo Party in the upcoming election. This means, both these parties can spend up to Tk 4.5 crore in campaigning.
"The Election Commission caps campaign spending for a party in line with the RPO. Parties are already aware about it," said EC additional secretary Ashok Kumar Debnath.
Besides, the EC allows each candidate to spend up to Tk 25 lakh for electioneering.
Several EC officials said the objective of setting expenditure caps is to prevent the spending of undisclosed money ahead of polls. However, they admitted that EC does not have any effective means to check whether the parties are abiding by the law and spending within their limits.
Asked, Ashok said, "I am not in a position to make any comments regarding the matter".
According to the RPO, parties that have fielded over 100 candidates but not more than 200 can spend Tk 3 crore.
Trinamool BNP and National People's Party fall in this category for the January 7 polls. The parties have fielded 135 and 122 candidates respectively.
Parties that have fielded more than 50 candidates but less than 100 are allowed to spend up to Tk 1.5 crore.
Bangladesh Congress has 95 candidates, Bangladesh Supreme Party 79, Jatiya Samajtantrik Dal 65, Bangladesh Sangiskritik Muktijote 63 and Bangladesh Nationalist Movement 54.
The rest of the 18 parties have fielded less than 50 candidates. According to the RPO, they can spend Tk 75 lakh each.
As per the law, these parties will have to submit the expenditure statement to the EC within 90 days of the election.
In 2018, AL informed the EC their expenditure for the polls was Tk 1.05 crore. In that election, the party fielded 261 candidates. BNP, which fielded 256 candidates, spent Tk 1.11 crore and Jatiya Party's expenditure was 4.52 lakh for 178 participants.
During that election, Islami Andolan Bangladesh's expenditure was the highest -- Tk 2.14 crore for 298 candidates.
Seven political parties Liberal Democratic Party, Biklapadhara Bangladesh, Jatiya Samajtantrik Dal, Bangladesh Khelafat Andolan, Gonforum, Jatiya Ganotantrik Party and Bangladesh Sangiskritik Muktijote informed the EC that they did not have any party wise expenditure for the 2018 polls. | https://www.thedailystar.net/news/bangladesh/national-election-2024/news/al-jp-can-spend-tk-45cr-each-electioneering-3506966 | 2024-01-01T03:50:48Z |

An emotional Naomi Osaka appeared on the verge of tears when she spoke immediately after her triumphant comeback, pledging to dedicate this next chapter of her career to return “as much love as I was given”.
Even as the heavens opened, a deluge causing spectators to rush for cover and Pat Rafter Arena’s roof to close, the four-time grand slam champion’s comeback at the Brisbane International could not be dampened as she closed out an at times tense 6-3, 7-6 (11-9) win against Tamara Korpatsch of Germany.
An array of powerful groundstrokes in the opening games announced Osaka’s return to the court, after a year spent away for the birth of her first child.
At stages in the opening set, her challenger held her own. However, after conceding an early break, Korpatsch was unable to force her way back into the first set.
Even after making an unforced error, working her rival around the court before mis-hitting a volley into the net, Osaka could not help but sigh, breathe, and laugh to herself. She was back.
Having been so open and raw about her mental health struggles even at the peak of her powers, Osaka appeared composed, assured, and when it was all said and done, privileged to be back.
“I feel like the last couple of years that I’ve played before I had my daughter I didn’t return as much love as I was given, so I really feel like that’s what I want to do in this chapter,” Osaka said.
“I feel like there was a time I was just a little kid trying to watch my role models play, so it feels pretty surreal sometimes to be playing on this court.”
It was far from the perfect outing come the second set – forfeiting a break deep into the exchange to give Korpatsch the chance to level on serve.
An unforced error then cruelled Osaka’s chance to take an 0-30 lead the next game, working the court brilliantly before a backhand found the net, only to then send a forehand wide the following point despite again appearing on top of the rally.
At 5-5 Osaka trailed 0-30 on serve, before bouncing back to hit the front once again.
Frustrations started to set in as the set wore on, with further unforced errors drawing her ire. Much to Korpatsch’s credit, the German made life difficult in the clash’s latter stages as the tie-breaker became a tense affair.
But while there may have been some rust, there is no replacement for the two-time Australian Open winner’s class.
Having lost two match points, while also being forced to save a pair of set points, Osaka at last overcame her plucky opponent – much to the delight of a Brisbane crowd willing her return to go according to plan.
“I was super nervous playing the entire time, but I was really excited to be out here,” Osaka said.
“It feels good to be back.”

COTTONDALE, Fla. (WMBB) — A Jackson County resident got into a standoff with deputies earlier Sunday morning.
The suspect and Jackson County Sheriff’s Office deputies exchanged gunfire which led to the gunman’s death.
Sunday, at approximately 10:45 a.m. the Jackson County Sheriff’s Office received a call notifying them of an armed individual.
Three deputies responded to the scene.
The suspect was wielding a firearm and it was reported that he shot at someone prior to the deputies’ arrival.
“Our communications center received a 911 call from a residence on Mimosa Lane, which is just outside of Cottondale. The caller stated that our suspect had fired shots at someone at the residence. So deputies were dispatched to the residence,” said Jackson County Sheriff Donnie Edenfield.
The man has been identified as 73-year-old Talmadge Bryant.
At the residence on Mimosa Lane, Bryant was requested by authorities to drop his weapon.
He did not comply.
“Deputies encountered an armed suspect outside of the resistance in the yard and several verbal orders were given to the suspect to relinquish the weapon and eventually the suspect pulled the weapon out of his pocket and pointed it at deputies,” Edenfield said.
Jackson County deputies and Bryant exchanged gunfire.
During the altercation, Bryant was shot and killed.
The deputies made it out unscathed.
“We’re grateful that no deputies were harmed. And our thoughts and prayers go out to the family involved and all those who were involved,” Edenfield said.
The three deputies who were involved in the standoff have been put on administrative leave per agency policy.
The case has been assigned to the Florida Department of Law Enforcement.
All three deputies will remain on leave until the case is resolved. | https://www.mypanhandle.com/news/local-news/jackson-county/jackson-county-man-dead-after-shoot-out-with-deputies/ | 2024-01-01T03:50:54Z |

In the world of entrepreneurship, the path to success is rarely a straight line. Instead, it's a journey marked by highs and lows, triumphs and setbacks. With 18% of small businesses not making it past the first year and 65% of businesses failing within 10 years, as the Chamber of Commerce reported, entrepreneurs need to adopt a mindset that will help them weather the inevitable storms they will face.
For successful business owners, one trait stands out above all others: resilience. This isn't just about bouncing back from failures; it's about seeing every obstacle as an opportunity to learn, innovate, and grow.
Embracing Challenges As Opportunities
The entrepreneurial landscape is fraught with challenges. Each hurdle, rejection, and failure are integral parts of the journey.
“The key to thriving in the face of challenges lies in how you perceive these obstacles. Do you see them as insurmountable barriers or as chances to improve and innovate? This perspective makes all the difference. Embracing resilience is key to entrepreneurial success. Facing challenges and setbacks is an inevitable part of the journey. Instead of viewing obstacles as insurmountable, see them as opportunities to learn, grow, and innovate. Remember that many successful ventures have emerged from the ashes of failure. Cultivate a mindset of perseverance, adaptability, and continuous learning. Every setback is a step closer to your goal, as long as you're willing to persist and learn from each experience,” says Claudio Bravo, CEO of Bravo Luxury. Bravo has navigated turbulent waters, from humble beginnings in a small town in Chile to becoming a prominent real estate developer in the Coachella Valley, and can attest to the importance of mindset in the face of challenges.
Some of the most successful ventures have risen from the ashes of what seemed like catastrophic failures. The difference was the mindset of the entrepreneurs behind them. Like other successful entrepreneurs, Bravo has cultivated a mindset of perseverance, adaptability, and continuous learning. In this light, every setback is not a step back but a step closer to your goal – as long as you're willing to persist and learn from each experience.
Betting On Yourself
Central to this journey is a profound belief in oneself and a foundational trust in one’s abilities and vision. This means investing time, resources, and energy into your ideas and capabilities. “Taking calculated risks is part and parcel of successful entrepreneurship. It's about believing in your potential to succeed, even when others might have doubts,” says Bravo.
Science Direct research shows a clear link between self-confidence and entrepreneurial success. Bravo’s self-confidence helped him successfully navigate the 2008 housing market crisis. “Self-confidence is not just an internal asset; it's contagious. It motivates you and inspires confidence in others, including potential investors, partners, and employees,” he says.
So, how can entrepreneurs build this self-confidence? It starts with personal and professional development, which should be ongoing. Entrepreneurs should always find ways to enhance their skills, expand their knowledge, and grow their network. Betting on yourself also means prioritizing self-care. A healthy, balanced entrepreneur is more focused and effective than one running on an empty tank.
Handling Rejection In High-Stakes Investments
One of the most daunting aspects of entrepreneurship is facing rejection, especially when it involves significant financial pursuits. What separates the top entrepreneurs from everyone else is their approach to rejection.
“Each 'no' should be viewed not as a door closing but as a stepping stone to a 'yes.' It's essential to seek feedback from these rejections and use it constructively to refine your pitch, business model, or strategy,” he advises.
A report from The Harvard Business Review supports Bravo’s point, claiming that, when asked why promising new ventures fail, most VCs tend to point to the inadequacies of a founder, particularly “their lack of grit, industry acumen, or leadership ability.”
“Remember that investors don’t just invest in an idea – they invest in the person behind it. Demonstrating resilience and an ability to adapt to feedback to build and improve your proposition is crucial for entrepreneurs who want to attract investors
Networking is key in these scenarios; often, a 'no' can lead to a new introduction or opportunity.
Moreover, timing can be crucial. A 'no' today might become a 'yes' when the market or business is more mature. Entrepreneurs must recognize that rejection is not a reflection of their worth but a standard part of the entrepreneurial process,” explains Bravo.
Due to its turbulent nature, the entrepreneurial journey is not for the faint of heart. It requires a combination of resilience, self-belief, and the ability to view setbacks as opportunities.
Betting on yourself, embracing continuous learning, and handling rejections with grace and determination are the hallmarks of successful entrepreneur. Remember, every challenge faced is a lesson learned, and every setback is a setup for a comeback. Keep pushing forward, never give up, and watch your entrepreneurial dreams become a reality. | https://www.forbes.com/sites/jiawertz/2023/12/31/community-building-and-values-key-approaches-to-entrepreneurship/ | 2024-01-01T03:50:55Z |

Bangladesh may become isolated if polls not free, fair: EC Anisur
Election Commissioner Anisur Rahman today said there is a possibility that Bangladesh will be isolated from the world if the upcoming national polls is not free, fair and credible.
While speaking at the opening ceremony of a training programme for executive magistrates in the capital, he said the country's future will be uncertain if the elections were not credible.
"There is a possibility that the country's economy, trade and other aspects can come to a standstill," he said.
"It will not be enough only for us to consider that the elections are free and fair. The whole world is looking at us. If we can't make this election free, fair and acceptable, then our future is uncertain.
"There is a possibility that Bangladesh may be isolated," he said.
"The election must be held in a free, fair and participatory manner at any cost," he said. | https://www.thedailystar.net/news/bangladesh/national-election-2024/news/bangladesh-may-become-isolated-if-polls-not-free-fair-ec-anisur-3507216 | 2024-01-01T03:50:56Z |

Over the course of the last 28 years, the Letters to Santa event has raised nearly $4 million for families in need.
As founder of Poverty Alleviation Charities, producer/director Heather Whinna spearheaded the event in Chicago. This year, Letters to Santa took place in Chicago in partnership with hospitality company Convene as a gala fundraising event at Willis Tower before expanding to Los Angeles for the first time as a 24 hour marathon event.
Joined by her husband, audio engineer Steve Albini, Whinna’s events utilize comedy and music to make a difference at the holidays.
“To my mind, the most important and unique thing about Letters to Santa, the entire project, is that it’s the most direct and most efficient charitable endeavor that I can even conceive of,” said Albini prior to the Chicago gala earlier this month. “Every dollar of it is donated immediately into the hands of a poor family. All of the overhead in the charity is taken care of by the benefactors of the charity. So, it’s the most direct and most efficient way to get money into the hands of poor families.”
While many larger charities oversee fundraising efforts, far less actually see through the distribution of funds raised at the local level.
Nearly three decades ago, Whinna and Albini first began picking up actual letters to Santa from their local post office, fulfilling the Christmas lists provided by Chicago families in need. Each Christmas day, Whinna, Albini and other volunteers distribute the gifts purchased to local families along with a grant, providing a unique form of oversight that sets the organization apart.
“What I like about Letters to Santa is that most charitable things are about getting someone involved in some type of a mechanism or a process that will eventually help them, right? Well, Letters to Santa is direct and immediate help,” Albini explained.
“It’s the most important part of what we do,” Whinna agreed. “100% of the donation goes directly to a family on Christmas day. I will get your money and I am going to give it to them,” she said, highlighting the charity’s hands-on approach. “The thing that makes what we do special is that everything is organic, right? People from my high school just walked up as well as all of the performers,” said Whinna. “I’ve just been very lucky in my life that I’ve built a lot of circles of talented people around me who are always willing to do whatever I ask them to - which is a remarkable gift.”
Known for roles in films like The Goonies, Parenthood and Frozen II, actress Martha Plimpton spent time in Chicago in the 2000s working with Steppenwolf Theatre Company.
In Chicago for the Convene-sponsored gala event, Plimpton was clear on the important role Letters to Santa plays at the holidays.
“It’s incredibly important. Heather Whinna, who is one of my longest and dearest friends, is a person that I would fly to the ends of the earth for if she asked me. I just love this event,” said Plimpton. “I love the idea of it. And I love how it came about. I love that she spent the last 28 Christmases literally making people’s lives better by bringing happiness and joy to struggling families all over this city. I don’t know what the city of Chicago would be without Heather Whinna.”
Plimpton was joined on stage in Chicago by Windy City-born comedian John Mulaney, a Letters to Santa special guest who raised $25,000 for the charity by auctioning off a pair of photos with fans, later tweaking a batch of new material as he performed in front of the hometown crowd.
Earlier, Albini interviewed Irish singer songwriter Glen Hansard via Zoom, with the musician offering up a unique solo acoustic take on “Falling Slowly,” a 2007 hit for The Swell Season (Hansard’s folk duo with Markéta Irglová), from the soundtrack to the 2007 musical Once. “My friend, that was beautiful in ways that you can never imagine,” said Albini to Hansard as the segment wrapped, clearly moved as fans in attendance at the gala took over the lead vocal as the video call occasionally hiccuped.
In addition to performances by comedians Todd Barry and Dave Helem, and event hosts Nnamdi Ngwe and Patrick Rowland, actor, comedian and Saturday Night Live alum Chris Kattan delivered a set of holiday-themed jokes in full costume as an elf.
“It’s a great cause. And to be asked is a real honor,” said Kattan prior to the event. “I think it’s very important to give back and give as much as we can.”
Writer, actress and comedian Katie Rich was an on stage highlight during the Chicago Letters to Santa gala event.
Few Letters participants were as engaging as Rich. A writer on SNL for six years, Rich too was born in the Chicagoland area. On stage at the gala event, for each donation made, she delivered jokes written for SNL’s “Weekend Update” sketch that never made the air, nearly stealing the show as she cracked wise.
“I’ve been doing Letters to Santa for almost 20 years,” said Rich before taking the stage. “I’ve gone on Christmas day to visit families and it’s wonderful. It’s truly magical,” she said. “Sometimes, I think when you donate [to a charity], you don’t necessarily get to see what your generosity has done. But with Letters to Santa, boy do you get to see it. It’s just so palpable,” Rich explained. “I know this sounds cheesy but you truly learn what Christmas is about. You see these families who wouldn’t have had a Christmas otherwise. And it just makes you want to help more and more families, you know what I mean?” she said of the annual visits. “It’s exponential the way that it hits you. It’s unbelievable how you can see that this is a life-changing thing for them. And there’s no strings attached. ‘Here, this is for you. Have a good holiday.’” | https://www.forbes.com/sites/jimryan1/2023/12/31/comedian-john-mulaney-helps-letters-to-santa-raise-funds-for-families-in-need/ | 2024-01-01T03:51:01Z |

Barguna-1: AL candidate Shambhu served show-caused
The Electoral enquiry Committee has served show-cause notices against Awami League candidate Dhirendra Debnath Shambhu from Barguna-1 constituency and a ward councillor for violating the electoral code of conduct.
The committee chairman Ahmed Saeed, also joint district and sessions judge, served the show-cause notices.
The committee has asked Shambhu to submit a written explanation within the next 48 hours.
According to the notice, Dhirendra Debnath Shambhu criticised the independent candidates calling them "Iblish", "idiots" and "hypocrites" during a campaign meeting of Awami League at Koraibaria union in Borguna's Taltali upazila on December 26.
Through this, Shambhu has violated 11 (A) of the Election Code of Conduct 2008.
Mir Habibur Rahman, a supporter of boat candidate Dhirendra Debnath Shambhu, has been also show caused for allegedly distributing money among voters.
The officer-in-charge of Amtali police station informed that Habiubur distributed Tk 100 in cash to 20-25 people to buy winter clothes and paid Tk 100 per day for food during door-to-door campaigning in favor of "boat".
He was also asked to provide written explanation within 48 hours.
Meanwhile, the Election Commission today summoned Independent Candidate for Laxmipur-1 constituency Md Habibur Rahman Paban to explain allegations that he violated the electoral code of conduct and committed 'pre-election irregularities' by being involved in election crimes.
According to the EC notice, Paban called the deputy commissioner, Lakshmipur and the concerned returning officer through Whatsapp and made intimidating, objectionable and indecent statements and threatened to transfer the Returning Officer and superintendent of police within three days.
"Moreover, the concerned Election Enquiry Committee has sent a report to the Election Commission on December 31, 2023 recommending legal action against the candidate," it added.
Paban was asked to appear in person to provide an explanation to the EC. | https://www.thedailystar.net/news/bangladesh/national-election-2024/news/barguna-1-al-candidate-shambhu-served-show-caused-3507546 | 2024-01-01T03:51:03Z |
I went over a month without listening to music. That’s right. Seems odd for a music journalist, doesn’t it? I can assure you that it wasn’t by choice.
On July 1st, I suffered a fall, resulting in a head trauma that, according to my neurologist, should have left me dead. Don’t worry, though. I’ve fully recovered, even at a remarkable rate. However, it was one of the most challenging times in my life.
Many things were stripped away from me, and one of the hardest was music. I couldn’t listen to music. I couldn’t go to concerts. Both are among the things I enjoy the most. It was soul-crushing.
Music is something that gets me through the highest of highs and the lowest of lows in life. It’s always there for me. Without it, I was lost. Thankfully, I found it again a little over a month after the accident. And, like always, it was there for me.
I never felt more grateful to be able to jam out to my favorite tunes and discover new records. Sadly, I would have to wait almost four months until I could dance at a concert again. My first show back was Fred again.. at Forest Hills Stadium. I was on the verge of tears the whole time, not only because his music moved me that much but because I was so happy to be at a live event once again.
I always knew music was important to me, but I never truly realized how much until it was taken away from me. My time healing from the brain trauma was one of the saddest moments in my life, not only because I couldn’t listen to music but because I couldn’t read, watch television, write, go to restaurants and bars, hang out with friends due to the amount of stimulation it causes, text the people I care about, talk on the phone with my loved ones and much more. But once I was able to listen to music again, it all felt better. I may have had many of my simple pleasures ripped away from me, but at least I had music.
Here, I share the albums and EPs that helped me get through 2023. These records soundtracked my life this year through both the good and the bad times. I also write about my new favorites, ones I wish I had known about sooner. I hope this list scores your world, no matter your mood.
And always remember, don’t take music for granted. It’s one of life’s simple pleasures as well as one of the most complex things humans can create. To make numerous instruments and sounds combine to form beauty is no small feat. The easiest part of it is taking it in, relishing in the splendor of it all.
There’s so much good music out there. All you have to do is listen.
Overmono - Good Lies
There are a lot of things I wish I had done differently this year. One of them is wanting to have discovered Good Lies sooner.
Once I heard the first song, I knew this album would have my heart. And, wow. It certainly does. Upon tuning in, melomaniacs will find experimental sounds, glitchy and shimmering synths, percolating beats, airy atmospheres, catchy lyrics, tinkering tunes, celestial buildups and sensations of desire, nostalgia and pure elation. The LP seamlessly balances curating dancefloor moments with songs meant for at-home enjoyment. Indeed, Good Lies proves to be a captivating and masterfully produced album.
Mija - No Rules
On repeat. That’s exactly how I listened to this EP in 2023.
The four-track body of work boasts pounding, bouncy and deep basslines, samples from poets and drag queens, funky and swiveling synths, catchy toplines and a nod to ballroom culture—a late 20th-century underground queer subculture where people walked, competed, performed, danced, lip-synced and modeled in different categories. Mija says in a previous interview with Forbes that the title of the EP is based on her “fk a genre” ethos, which has given her the space to explore and release different styles of music throughout her illustrious career.
LP Giobbi - Light Places
LP Giobbi stuns with her debut album, Light Places. The long play features captivating piano, tinkling synths, catchy lyrics, uplifting sounds, bubbly and rebounding basslines, soothing tones and more. The body of work represents a dichotomy of sounds as some tracks provide a sense of longing while others are dancefloor-ready.
In a previous interview with Forbes, LP Giobbi says the album’s name is a nod to lyrics from “Scarlet Begonias” by Grateful Dead: “Once in a while, you get shown the light, in the strangest of places, if you look at it right.” LP Giobbi says her mother and father are self-proclaimed “deadheads,” meaning they’re avid lovers of the band. She adds that the lyrics are her father’s favorite by the famed group, and it is the philosophy of how he taught her and her brother to live.
Fred again.. and Brian Eno - Secret Life
When I could finally listen to music again following my head injury, I continuously played Secret Life. The album’s sonic structure was calming for me. It didn’t induce headaches. As much as I love pounding techno, house heaters and bass music, those genres would have been a terrible choice for somebody recovering from a traumatic brain accident.
Finding my emotions perfectly mirrored in music is what drew me to Secret Life more than other records during that time. Its melancholic atmosphere matched my mood, soundtracking my crying with despondent piano notes, hazy synths, slowly strumming acoustic guitar, somber singing and static soundscapes. While it is a good album to shed tears to, it’s also worth listening to while experiencing other emotions. Regardless of how you feel, the Fred again.. and Brian Eno collaborative LP proves to be captivating.
Skrillex - Quest for Fire
Skrillex came in hot in 2023 with Quest for Fire. Not only did he bring the heat with the album, but he made the ultimate comeback this year: He captivated the dance music world for weeks by forming a super trio group with Fred again.. and Four Tet, surprise-released a second LP dubbed Don’t Get Too Close and, though less important, stepped out with a dramatic new look where he ditched his widely-recognizable glasses and long hair. Certainly, 2023 was a good year for Skrillex.
Quest for Fire may be one of his greatest achievements yet this year, as it reminds people why he is considered an icon in the scene. On the 15-track body of work, melophiles can hear a wide variety of styles—everything from playful basslines to Missy Elliott’s crisp rap toplines, deep and wonky bass, high-pitched notes, syncopated synths and heavenly tones. No matter the style, it is undeniable that it’s a Skrillex song, exemplifying his ability to transcend genres while always sticking to the signature sound that made him famous years ago.
Jayda G - Guy
Canadian producer and deejay Jayda G has been known to captivate audiences worldwide with her house music productions. The sound designer was even nominated at the 63rd Annual Grammy Awards in the Best Electronic Dance Recording category for her song “Both of Us.” It’s no surprise that she impresses once again with her third album, Guy.
In it, Jayda G examines the grief and renewal of her father’s death, William Richard Guy, who passed away when she was 10. She penned lyrics for the first time that were pulled from her dad’s journals and 11 hours of videotapes that document his life. In the LP, she flexes her lead vocalist role more than ever before. She explores the archives through her production using powerful toplines, dancefloor-ready beats, soul and disco.
Skream - Skreamizm 8
The LP takes audiophiles through every sound Skream has been part of—even indie, seen in “The Track Flute” as it fuses the genre with grime. Angelic and passionate toplines, funky beats, driving basslines, wonky and celestial synths, affectional sounds, tinkering tunes and unfeigned spoken word are heard by listeners. The record pulls from where the tastemaker was during the last Skreamizm release, which was 10 years ago, and it incorporates his recent emotions, such as his feelings during the pandemic and when one of his best friends passed away. The artist says in a previous interview with Forbes that the album is the first time he “felt really content” with a body of work.
CloZee - Microworlds
It all begins with swirling synths, water-dripping sounds, a captivating buildup, experimental beats, wonky bass and twisting tunes. Following the introductory song that’s titled the same name as the album are 11 more tracks that, while delving into different sonic atmospheres, still remain a cohesive body of work. The sixth tune, marking the halfway point of the long play, is “Contemplation,” which offers piano, otherworldly synths and slowed-down bass. Closing out Microworlds is “Odyseeys,” where nature soundscapes, piano, manipulated sounds, a hype buildup, wonky bass and erratic synths are heard. CloZee surely demonstrates her production mastery on Microworlds.
Flume - Arrived Anxious, Left Bored
Arrived Anxious, Left Bored features tracks recorded between 2016 and 2021, all of which are export WAV files. The surprise mixtape encompasses a variety of sounds across the vast spectrum of dance music. Manipulated toplines, driving basslines, powerful soundscapes, eclectic synths, ambient beats, static sounds, future bass, distorted vocals and more can be heard. In all, Arrived Anxious, Left Bored is a masterclass in unbound creativity.
Kaytranada - Lover/Friend
The two-disc body of work boasts four tracks, two of which are originals, with the remaining two being instrumental versions of those songs. The first is “Lover/Friend,” which takes listeners through snapping sounds, progressively uplifting synths, Rochelle Jordan’s smooth vocals and groovy bass. The other main track, “Stuntin,” brings seductive sounds, Channel Tres’ velvety vocals and silky production.
The instrumental iterations of both respective tunes are without toplines, highlighting the sounds that drive each record. Lover/Friend is another skillful body of work by Katranada, who was awarded Best Dance/Electronic Album for BUBBA at the Premiere Ceremony of the 63rd Grammy Awards. Previously, “10%,” co-produced with Kali Uchis, won him a Grammy for Best Dance Recording.
CamelPhat - Spiritual Milk
Multi-platinum and Grammy-nominated duo CamelPhat dropped Spiritual Milk in September, its first long play since 2020’s Dark Matter. The 16-track album was released via the project’s imprint, When Stars Align. The LP takes melomaniacs through elated sounds, effervescent beats, captivating vocals, machine-like synths, calming atmospheres, driving bass and more. Spiritual Milk showcases the pair’s artistic evolution since its inception, exemplifying their consistent push to create euphoric and groove-inducing moments designed for the dancefloor.
The Blessed Madonna, Joy Anonymous and Danielle Ponder - Carry Me Higher
The Blessed Madonna teams up with Joy Anonymous and Danielle Ponder for Carry Me Higher. The five-track EP features reiterates of two tracks: “Carry Me Higher” and “Something Doesn’t Feel Right.” The former boasts three variants—“Elite Mix (10 Inch Version),” “Demo,” and “7 Inch Version”—while the latter has two—one by the same name as the track and the other dubbed “Demo.”
Sultry vocals by singer and former public defender Danielle Ponder are heard on all versions of “Carry Me Higher,” but the three differ in sound design. “Elite Mix (10 Inch Version)” utilizes organic instruments, driving bass and the sounds of house music. “Demo” has acoustic guitar and more raw-sounding vocals, while “7 Inch Version” is the same as “Elite 10 Inch” track but shorter.
For “Something Doesn’t Feel Right,” skittering drum’n’bass and soulful toplines take center stage. Conversely, the “Demo” iteration highlights piano and slowed-down singing.
Surely, all variants of the two songs prove to be diverse and captivating.
Mathame - MEMO
Pounding techno, emotive melodies, dark yet romantic sounds, cinematic tunes and a dichotomy of darkness and lightness are heard on the 14-track album. These sounds are much like the project’s dynamic: Amedeo Giovanelli, one-half of Mathame, is more reserved and brooding, while Matteo Giovanelli, the second member, exhibits a hopeful yang.
MEMO was mainly written all over the world while touring, Mathame tells Forbes in a previous interview. The brotherly duo’s venture started in Mykonos, where they relocated in order to escape their Italian hometown that was ravaged by covid. Within the LP, this is represented by themes of hope and despair.
Lastlings - Perfect World
The 12-track body of work epitomizes art, tradition and determination. The transcendent LP takes audiophiles through enchanting vocals, celestial sounds, classical piano, cinematic beats and dreamy melodies. This stays true to Lastlings’ philosophy when making music as it strives to create escapist moments that allow listeners to delve into another dimension and use their imagination, Amy Dowdle, one-half of the project, says in a previous interview with Forbes.
KOAN Sound - Led By Ancient Light
KOAN Sound continuously represents the future of contemporary dance music, and it does just so with Led By Ancient Light. Sonically, the body of work takes listeners on a voyage that begins with turmoil in “Embers From Chaos” before closing with “Solace of the Red Giant,” a song that provides a sense of longing while also a feeling of tranquility. This dichotomy of tunes truly exemplifies the sound-defying project’s production mastery. Fans also hear numerous soundscapes between the opening and closing tracks that complement the narrative arch of how havoc can lead to purpose. This is done through a slow change in the music, starting with bass-heavy and forbidding sounds and ending with angelic beats.
The LP was made using organic instruments, such as manipulated versions of the piano and the cello. These instruments, fused with KOAN Sound’s electronic sonic design and incorporation of sci-fi elements for the first time, successfully created the sonically stunning 13-track record. | https://www.forbes.com/sites/lisakocay/2023/12/31/my-top-15-albums-of-2023/ | 2024-01-01T03:51:07Z |

Copenhagen: Queen Margrethe II of Denmark, the world’s longest-serving monarch, has said she will hand over her position to her son after 52 years on the throne.
The queen, 83, cited deteriorating health for her decision, in a speech to the nation on Sunday.
The queen has suffered from back and knee pain in recent years.
After undergoing surgery in 2023 she quit a heavy smoking habit that had lasted 66 years and often was subject of debate. Health professionals had called on the queen to be a better role model.
After the 2022 death of Britain’s Queen Elizabeth II, who was a close friend as well as a distant cousin, Margrethe became the world’s longest-ruling monarch. Hassanal Bolkiah, the Sultan of Brunei, has held the title of ruler longer than Margrethe, but his country only became independent in 1984. Margrethe also in 2023 became the longest-sitting ruler in the 1200 years of the Danish monarchy.
The popularity of the queen, known for her sharp wit and artistic abilities, has supported Europe’s oldest monarchy through a half-century during which Denmark underwent sweeping societal changes, and royal houses elsewhere in Europe became mired in scandal.
Her position as monarch in a country with a democratic constitution has never widely been questioned. In a 2022 opinion poll by newspaper Jyllands-Posten, 72 per cent of Danes said they supported the monarchy. In a 2023 survey by TV2, 78 per cent said they expected Denmark would still have a monarchy in 50 years, up from 67 per cent in a 2015 poll.
Not that Margrethe’s reign was crisis-free.
In 2022, she stripped four of her grandchildren of their royal titles in a streamlining move, provoking what she acknowledged were “strong reactions.” And during her ailing husband’s final years, he complained publicly about his role.
Part of the queen’s appeal has come from her multiple talents.
She’s fluent in Danish, German, English, French and Swedish. Her work as an artist has spanned paintings, book illustrations, theatre costume designs and church textiles. Her works have been displayed in more than 50 museums from Tokyo to Washington.
In 1981, working under a pseudonym, she translated into Danish a book by the French philosopher and feminist Simone de Beauvoir, All Men Are Mortal.
Although Margrethe was the first woman to rule Denmark in 560 years, she refused to vocally promote gender equality, to the disappointment of some members of Danish women’s rights groups.
“I prefer not to be involved in any movement,” she said during a trip to the US in 1976, when gender issues were high on the agenda in her homeland. “I have sympathy for it, but my job is to be queen, and that requires all my abilities and strength.”
Margrethe was born on April 16, 1940, the first of three daughters of King Frederik IX and Queen Ingrid. Her birth at the royal palace in Copenhagen came a week after Nazi Germany attacked and occupied Denmark.
At the time, she wasn’t in line to become head of state, as the constitution only allowed male succession. That would have meant the monarchy passing to her uncle, Knud.
But popular sentiment was behind the bright, young princess. A constitutional referendum was held in 1953 that paved the way for female succession if the royal couple didn’t have any sons. In 2009, the law of succession was changed again to give the first-born the right to the throne, regardless of gender.
In the period 1960-1965, Crown Princess Margrethe studied at the University of Copenhagen, the University of Cambridge, the London School of Economics and the Sorbonne, completing courses in archaeology and political science.
Margrethe has said that if she hadn’t been a monarch she would have been torn between becoming an archaeologist or an artist.
“I’m fortunate that I never had to face that dilemma because I knew what my task was, but then found out that I could still pursue the arts and also, to some extent, archaeology,” the queen said in the 2011 interview book M, by author Jens Andersen.
In 1967, she married Henri Marie Jean Andre, a French count who had grown up in Vietnam. He took the Danish name Prince Consort Henrik. They had two sons: Crown Prince Frederik in 1968 and Prince Joachim the year after.
She ascended the throne in 1972 after the death of her father and balanced her work as an artist with her royal duties.
Margrethe faced her biggest public crisis in the last years of her marriage as Henrik repeatedly complained about his role and said he should have been given the title of king.
In 2017, he said he didn’t want to be buried with his wife in the Roskilde Cathedral, as had been planned. Later that year, the royal court issued a statement saying the prince suffered from dementia.
When he died in 2018, at age 83, Henrik was cremated, and a portion of his ashes was placed in the garden of a royal castle near Copenhagen. The other part was spread in Danish waters, in accordance with his wishes.
The move to strip the titles from the children of Margrethe’s younger son followed similar downsizing in other royal houses, such as in Sweden. A week after it was announced, Margrethe apologised to her family but stuck by her decision, saying it was “in keeping with the times” and necessary to “future-proof” the institution, according to the royal court.
“I have made my decision as Queen, mother and grandmother, but, as a mother and grandmother, I have underestimated the extent to which much my younger son and his family feel affected,” she said in a written statement at the time. “That makes a big impression, and for that I am sorry.”

Barisal-5 and Barguna-1: 2 JP candidates withdraw from polls
Two Jatiya Party-nominated candidates from Barisal-5 and Barguna-1 constituencies have decided not to contest the upcoming national elections slated for January 7, fearing that the election would not be free and fair.
Md Iqbal Hossain Tapas and Khalilur Rahaman, who collected nomination papers for Barishal-5 and Barguna-1 respectively, came up with the announcement in a joint press conference at Rajnigandha Center in Barisal city this afternoon, reports our local correspondent.
Md Iqbal Hossain Tapas also withdrew his candidacy from Barishal-2.
The candidates said they do not see the environment as suitable for holding a fair and free election.
Some ruling party men have repeatedly violated the electoral code by obstructing our supporters from electioneering and attacking them at various times, but the returning officers did not take any action in this regard, they said.
They also called the election "staged and pie-sharing" polls.
JP Barishal city President Mohsin Ul Islam Habul and other leaders were present at the press conference. | https://www.thedailystar.net/news/bangladesh/national-election-2024/news/barisal-5-and-barguna-1-2-jp-candidates-withdraw-polls-3507346 | 2024-01-01T03:51:10Z |

DALLAS, Texas — Trailblazing longtime U.S. Rep. Eddie Bernice Johnson, a nurse from Texas who helped bring hundreds of millions of federal dollars to the Dallas area as the region's most powerful Democrat, died Sunday. She was 88.
President Joe Biden, Dallas Mayor Eric Johnson and many other leaders issued statements about her death after her son posted about it on Facebook. The Dallas Morning News also confirmed her death with an unnamed source close to the family. No cause of death was given.
Biden hailed her "immense courage" and called her "an icon and mentor to generations of public servants, through whom her legacy of resilience and purpose will endure."
"She was the single most effective legislator Dallas has ever had," the mayor said in a statement. "Nobody brought more federal infrastructure money home to our city. Nobody fought harder for our communities and our residents' interests and safety. And nobody knew how to navigate Washington better for the people of Dallas."
Eddie Bernice Johnson served in the House for three decades after becoming the first registered nurse elected to Congress and first Black chief psychiatric nurse at Dallas' Veterans Affairs hospital. She went on to become the first Black woman to chair the House Committee on Science, Space, and Technology, and she also led the Congressional Black Caucus. She left office in January after repeatedly delaying her retirement. Before Congress, she served in the Texas legislature.
"For three decades, Chairwoman Johnson was a powerful force in the United States Congress, always focused on the future," House Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi said in a statement, praising Johnson as "a tenacious trailblazer, a talented legislator and a devoted public servant."
Johnson used her committee leadership position to fight against Republican efforts to block action on climate change. Congressional Black Caucus Chair Steven Horsford said Johnson was also "a fierce advocate for expanding STEM opportunities to Black and minority students" who also played a key role in helping the Biden administration pass a major package of incentives for computer chip manufacturers.
She was born in Waco and grew up in the segregated South. Dallas' once-segregated Union Station was renamed in her honor in 2019.
Her own experience with racism helped spur her to get involved in politics. She recalled that officials at the VA hospital were shocked that she was Black after they hired her sight-unseen, so they rescinded their offer for her to live in a dorm on campus. She told The Dallas Morning News in 2020 that officials would go into patients' rooms ahead of her to "say that I was qualified."
"That was really the most blatant, overt racism that I ever experienced in my life," she told the newspaper.
Johnson nearly quit but decided to stick with it.
"It was very challenging," she said. "But any job where you're an African American woman entering for the first time would be a challenge. They had not hired one before I got there. Yes, it was a challenge, but it was a successful venture."

Panthers owner David Tepper was not happy after the Panthers were shut out by the Jaguars, 26-0. The loss secured the NFL's worst record to the Panthers.

Unreal. That's unprecedented behavior from an NFL owner.
With a guaranteed league-worst record (2-14 after this week), the Panthers will surrender the No. 1 pick in the 2024 NFL draft to the Chicago Bears. The Bears are now the ninth team in NFL history to earn the No. 1 pick in back-to-back seasons.
Ryan Poles fleeced Tepper and the Panthers front office last season. In March 2023, he traded them the No. 1 pick for the No. 9 pick (Darnell Wright), a 2023 second-round pick (Tyrique Stevenson), a 2024 first-round pick (No. 1 pick), a 2025 second-round pick and wide receiver DJ Moore.
"I mean, s---, I feel I was the No. 1 pick when they traded for me," Moore said after Sunday's win over the Falcons. "But, I mean, thanks to Carolina, that's all I can say." | https://www.nbcsportsbayarea.com/nfl/panthers-owner-chucks-drink-on-jaguars-fan-after-earning-nfls-worst-record/1686583/ | 2024-01-01T03:51:12Z |
Thanks to a pair of judicial rulings handed down in late 2023, legislators in the U.S. and Germany head into 2024 struggling to implement green energy mandates and subsidies. On November 15, a German constitutional court ruling found that budgeted spending on a host of green energy programs, contrary to the expectations of many members of the Bundestag, is subject to the nation’s debt brake.
Germany’s debt brake, implemented in 2014, prevents the federal budget deficit from exceeding 0.35% of GDP. The only reason Germany hasn’t already run afoul of its debt limit is because it has been suspended in each of the last four years.
The previous government set up an emergency pandemic fund that was exempt from the debt brake, but the use of those funds was limited to pandemic-related economic support, testing, PPE, etc. Some in Berlin were planning to divert unspent emergency funds approved for pandemic-related costs to instead pay for green energy programs. Such a maneuver, German lawmakers believed, would keep the funding for those green credits and subsidies exempt from the debt brake. Those debt brake-evading efforts, however, ran into a legal roadblock with the November 15 ruling, in which Germany’s top constitutional court determined the planned-for green energy spending was not exempt from the debt brake.
"This poses the biggest problem in economic policy to the government in this legislative period," Jens Suedekum, an economist at Duesseldorf University, told Reuters of the ruling’s effect. “Chancellor Olaf Scholz’s administration had planned to devote €60 billion in emergency borrowing approved (but not spent) during the pandemic to subsidize green projects such as battery production and decarbonized steel,” the Wall Street Journal reported on November 23. “The point was to conceal the true cost of these plans by averting new legislative votes. The judges saw through this when they ruled that emergency authorization to borrow in the past can’t be re-purposed for entirely different projects in the future.”
The November 23 Wall Street Journal editorial added that "a separate fund worth up to €200 billion may also be unconstitutional under the same principle. Berlin planned to use this pot of money for energy subsidies as German households and businesses struggle to cope with skyrocketing prices created by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and Berlin’s enthusiasm for costly and unreliable renewable energy.”
In response to the November court ruling, German lawmakers voted in December to suspend the debt brake for a fifth consecutive year. That action eliminated the need to raise taxes, trim government spending elsewhere, or both in order to fund green spending. German lawmakers did, however, raise their carbon tax, which, as Reuters reported, “will increase fuel and heating costs.”
The CO2 price in Germany will increase 50% of January 1, rising from 45 to 30 euros per metric ton. This rate increase “is likely to boost the price of petrol by about 4.5 cents a litre,” Reuters added.
“For many left-leaning politicians, there was only one sensible response to the verdict — the debt brake had to go,” noted the Financial Times about the reaction to the November 15 court ruling. “But that is not how the German public sees it.”
“For many, it has a hallowed place in the national consciousness, with echoes of the role of the National Health Service in the UK,” added the December 31 Financial Times about Germany’s debt brake. “According to a recent poll by Wahlen, 61% of Germans want to maintain the debt rule in its current form, and only 35% want it loosened.”
One Day After German Ruling, Another Legal Setback For Progressives In Pennsylvania
One day after Germany’ top constitutional court ruled that members of the Bundestag were attempting to spend money on green programs without proper parliamentary approval, a Pennsylvania judge struck down cap-and-trade in the Keystone State as an illegally imposed tax. In that ruling, issued on November 16, Commonwealth Court Judge Michael Wojcik blocked Pennsylvania’s entry into the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI), a multi-state carbon emissions cap-and-trade program that inflates the cost of energy.
Then-Governor Tom Wolf (D) entered Pennsylvania into RGGI in 2022 by executive action, to which a bipartisan majority of legislators objected. Judge Wojcik ruled that joining RGGI imposes a tax, which requires legislative approval, something that Wolf did not receive or even seek. Not only did Wolf fail to get legislative approval, he vetoed a bill passed with bipartisan majorities in the Pennsylvania House and Senate making clear that legislative sign-off is required to impose RGGI in Pennsylvania.
“Stated simply, to pass constitutional muster, the Commonwealth’s participation in RGGI may only be achieved through legislation duly enacted by the Pennsylvania General Assembly,” Judge Wojcik wrote in his opinion.
Days after that decision, Governor Josh Shapiro (D-Pa.) announced his administration will appeal the ruling in order to impose RGGI without legislative approval. This action is the second instance in recent months in which Governor Shapiro has tarnished his moderate reputation. The previous moment came in August, when Shapiro vetoed legislation to expand school choice, which indicated to many that he’s succumbed to pressure from teachers unions.
“RGGI represents an unconstitutional energy tax imposed by executive fiat,” Commonwealth Foundation senior vice president Nathan Benefield said in a statement. “It is disheartening to see Shapiro embrace his predecessor’s radical policies and ignore his previously stated concerns with RGGI’s process and consumer costs. If implemented, RGGI would strip nearly $800 million from the private sector for government redistribution while increasing electric bills for businesses and homeowners by a staggering 30%.”
The common problem progressives are struggling with — in the U.S., Germany, and elsewhere — is that their policy prescriptions have been designed to evade the need for approval from democratically elected lawmakers. Environmental advocacy groups end 2023 with legal setbacks on both sides of the Atlantic, but will look to regroup in 2024 and have the resources to do so. | https://www.forbes.com/sites/patrickgleason/2023/12/31/transatlantic-trouble-for-progressive-energy-agenda-heading-into-2024/ | 2024-01-01T03:51:13Z |
Deputy shoots at suspects after they ram deputy's cruiser, drive off
WILDOMAR, Calif. - Deputies in Wildomar in Riverside County are searching for two suspects they say intentionally drove into a deputy's cruiser before running off.
It happened around 1 p.m. after a deputy assigned to the Lake Elsinore Station found a stolen vehicle in the area of Cervera Road and Prairie Road. When the deputy tried to pull the car over, the driver didn't listen, then made a U-turn and drove into the driver's side door of the deputy's cruiser.
That's when the deputy shot at the vehicle. It wasn't immediately clear if the suspects were hit by bullets or injured.
The two suspects got out of that car and ran north down Prairie Road before getting in a silver Chevy and driving off. Deputies are searching for the vehicle, which has a California license plate number of 7WLX269. The deputy's cruiser was disabled because of the crash.
Deputies described one of the suspects as a thin Hispanic man in his late twenties, approximately 5 feet 9 inches tall. He was last seen wearing a green hat, black hoodie and blue jeans. Deputies described the other suspect as a heavy-set, 30-year-old Hispanic man between 5 feet 3 inches and 5 feet 4 inches tall. He was last seen wearing a black hoodie and dark jeans. According to authorities, he also has a tattoo of a pair of red lips on his right cheek.
The deputy who shot at the suspects will be placed on administrative leave.

SAN ANTONIO – Owner Ceasar Zepeda said he had almost a full house for his final dinner rush at Sangria on the Burg. After seven years, the restaurant is closing its doors on Sunday night.
“A lot of them wanted to come today specifically, on the last day,” Zepeda said. “To be here from the beginning to the end.”
Zepeda said the rising cost of supplies and declining sales are the reasons for closing the restaurant. Sangria is just one of the dozens of businesses that had their final shift in 2023.
“It’s very emotional,” Zepeda said. “There has to be an end. We’re not getting busier. A lot of our medium-range restaurants are closing down.”
The Greater San Antonio Chamber said inflation is partly to blame for businesses shutting down in the city this past year.
“It’s been one of those mixed years in many ways. There have been so many challenges with inflation,” Jeff Webster, the CEO and president of the Greater San Antonio Chamber said.
With the holiday season wrapping up, Webster said San Antonio residents need to keep the shopping small mindset at the forefront.
“It doesn’t end,” Webster said. “They don’t shut their doors December 30th and wait till next November or December. We’ve got to keep supporting these guys.”
That’s why Webster said the chamber is working with the city of San Antonio to help drive more business back to small and medium-sized shops.
“We’re going to have a real laser focus on that this year and trying to make sure we’re supporting the workforce here,” Webster said.
That doesn’t change the decision Zepeda made for Sangria. But even as doors close, he’s hopeful.
“No one wants to close up the restaurant. But I think for most people, it’s even worse to keep putting money into something that might never make money,” Zepeda said. “We’re pivoting to a new concept, and we’re excited about it.”
Zepeda said he’s looking to reimagine the restaurant in a new way in 2024. He didn’t have details but said he’s hoping to announce more soon. | https://www.ksat.com/news/local/2024/01/01/changes-have-to-happen-small-businesses-call-for-support-as-more-continue-to-shut-down-across-san-antonio/ | 2024-01-01T03:51:15Z |

Lonnie Lee was destined to spend his life on a sheep farm, following in the tradition of his father and grandfather.

That is until Elvis Presley intervened.
Lee was crowned "Australia's own Elvis Presley" in a competition at Sydney's Trocadero club in 1957, becoming one of the nation's first tribute acts.
"I sang three songs and the audience went absolutely bananas," Lee recalls to AAP.
That early success led to a life of touring and performing with his rockabilly band, far from the dust and heat on the family property at Rowena, in northern NSW.
The band appeared on Six O'Clock Rock in the early era of television, giving Lee a taste of Elvis mania.
"On tour the girls would write their names and 'we love you Lonnie' and their phone numbers in lipstick all over the car," Lee says.
"It sounds wonderful, but it ruined the car."
Lee, now 83, is set to relive those halcyon days when he returns to perform at the Parkes Elvis Festival, about an hour west of Orange, from January 10.
The five-day festival, complete with tribute concerts, dress-up competitions, a parade, and a hound dog pet show, is marking its 31st year with a Jailhouse Rock theme.
About 25,000 visitors are expected to travel to the rural town, some on the Elvis Express train from Sydney, the Regional Hound Dog Express plane or maybe in a Long Black Limousine.
The Elvis fans, who sweat through the dry summer heat in wigs, polyester jumpsuits and rhinestones, could bring in more than $13 million to the town of 10,000.
It was the unlikely setting that first drew John Connell to Parkes in the early days of the festival, along with his friend and fellow geography professor Chris Gibson.
"We got into it more because it was this weird festival than because it was Elvis," Professor Connell says.
"It looked like a small country town, the long main high street, the shops that close on Saturday afternoons.
"The festival was a bit like that as well, a bit more like a country women's cake sale."
But the academics returned to the festival for years to witness its evolution from an off-beat community fete to a slick event with international recognition.
Their book Outback Elvis explores how the festival helped Parkes turn its fortunes around after the peak of the wheat and sheep booms.
The town was right to look to the king for hope, Prof Connell says.
"They hit on the right person ... Elvis lends himself to a degree of fanaticism and creativity.
"In many ways, it was lucky: they had the right people, in a strange place at the right time."
In an era marked by bushfires, floods and rural decline, the festival has boosted just about every business in town.
"The vets were producing costumes for the smaller dogs, the tattoo parlours were booming, the hotels were booked out years in advance," Prof Connell says.
"The only people who didn't (benefit) were the undertakers."
That's not the case this year.
Festival director Joel Ulbricht says even the undertakers have a look-in, having produced some of the Hall of Fame plaques.
There is nothing quite like the Elvis festival, Mr Ulbricht says.
"There are two particular audiences that come to Elvis Festival: your first is your die-hard fans of Elvis.
"The second side of it is the novelty of 25,000 Elvis impersonators, people who are madly in love with music, Elvis himself and the legacy he has left."

North Korea’s Kim orders military to ‘thoroughly annihilate’ US, South Korea if provoked
SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — North Korean leader Kim Jong Un ordered his military to “thoroughly annihilate” the United States and South Korea if provoked, state media reported Monday, after he vowed to boost national defense to cope with what he called an unprecedented U.S.-led confrontation.
Kim is expected to ramp up weapons tests in 2024 ahead of the U.S. presidential election in November. Many experts say he likely believes his expanded nuclear arsenal would allow him to wrest U.S. concessions if former President Donald Trump is reelected.
In a five-day major ruling party meeting last week, Kim said he will launch three more military spy satellites, produce more nuclear materials and develop attack drones this year in what observers say is an attempt to increase his leverage in future diplomacy with the U.S.
In a meeting on Sunday with commanding army officers, Kim said it is urgent to sharpen “the treasured sword” to safeguard national security, an apparent reference to his country’s nuclear weapons program. He cited “the U.S. and other hostile forces’ military confrontation moves,” according to the official Korean Central News Agency.
Kim stressed that “our army should deal a deadly blow to thoroughly annihilate them by mobilizing all the toughest means and potentialities without moment’s hesitation” if they opt for military confrontation and provocations against North Korea, KCNA said.
In his New Year’s Day address Monday, South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol said he will strengthen his military’s preemptive strike, missile defense and retaliatory capabilities in response to the North Korean nuclear threat.
“The Republic of Korea is building genuine, lasting peace through strength, not a submissive peace that is dependent on the goodwill of the adversary,” Yoon said, using South Korea’s official name.
At the party meeting, Kim called South Korea “a hemiplegic malformation and colonial subordinate state” whose society is “tainted by Yankee culture.” He said his military must use all available means including nuclear weapons to “suppress the whole territory of South Korea” in the event of a conflict.
South Korea’s Defense Ministry warned in response that if North Korea attempts to use nuclear weapons, South Korean and U.S. forces will punish it overwhelmingly, resulting in the end of the Kim government.
Experts say small-scale military clashes between North and South Korea could happen this year along their heavily armed border. They say North Korea is also expected to test-launch intercontinental ballistic missiles capable of reaching the mainland U.S. and other major new weapons.
In 2018-19, Kim met Trump in three rounds of talks on North Korea’s expanding nuclear arsenal. The diplomacy fell apart after the U.S. rejected Kim’s limited offer to dismantle his main nuclear complex in exchange for extensive reductions in U.S.-led sanctions.
Kim has since sought to modernize his weapons arsenal and strengthen North Korea’s relationships with China and Russia. KCNA said Kim and Chinese President Xi Jinping exchanged New Year’s Day messages on Monday on bolstering bilateral ties.
North Korea faces suspicions that it has supplied conventional arms for Russia’s war in Ukraine in return for sophisticated Russian technologies to enhance the North’s military programs.
Estimates of the size of North Korea’s nuclear arsenal vary, ranging from about 20-30 bombs to more than 100. Many foreign experts say North Korea still has some technological hurdles to overcome to produce functioning nuclear-armed ICBMs, though its shorter-range nuclear-capable missiles can reach South Korea and Japan.

As we start a new year, homeowners are looking for ways to enjoy the winter months, and according to the Houzz Emerging Winter Trends Report, they’re removing the barriers between the home’s interior and exterior areas. “They’re also creating entertainment-focused gathering spaces, optimizing square footage with cleverly concealed rooms and turning an eye to green color schemes heading into the new year,” according to Mitchell Parker at Houzz.
These are the first two takeaways from the report, along with insight (and photos) from some of the top designers.
Greater Connections to the Outdoors
“We’ve seen growing interest among homeowners in opening their homes up to their outdoor spaces and improving their exterior spaces for more functional and entertaining usage, so it’s no surprise that they’d want to enjoy those spaces from the comfort of their interiors all year long,” Parker tells me. “Searches for “bedroom window seats” and “living room bay windows” grew nearly 4.5x and 2.5x, respectively, while a “four-season room” (up almost 2.5x) provides an enclosed sanctuary to take in landscapes from floor-to-ceiling windows.”
That doesn’t come as a surprise to Heather Mastrangeli, principal designer at Innovatus Design in Downers Grove, Illinois, who believes that humans are hardwired to crave a connection to the outdoors. “There is much research proving that access to natural daylight improves mental health, and it’s no wonder that clients are seeking ways to connect with the outdoor world.”
And in colder climates, the desire for this type of connection may be even stronger. So, incorporating this trend can make a home even more desirable to buyers. “Especially in New York City, not everyone can have their own slice of usable green space, so any way to bring the outside in visually or with a feeling of increased proximity tends to make the living space feel larger – and it makes a buyer feel great,” says Maggie Leigh Marshall of the Barton Barrett Marshall Team at Douglas Elliman in New York.
And although Houzz is seeing an uptick in searches for ways to connect to the outdoors, this isn’t a new trend to Cathy Cherry, founder and principal at Purple Cherry Architects in Annapolis, Maryland.
“For the past 10+ years, we have seen a focus on design elements such as large bay windows, large expansive glass walls, and screen porches that can be closed in to create four season rooms. The desire for these spaces is most significantly tied to a desire for natural light, for a brightly lit room,” Cherry tells me.
And in warmer climates, the options for bringing the outdoors in increase significantly. In this West Hollywood project, Manuella Moreira, principal at Manuella Moreira Interiors in Los Angeles, tells me the aim was to seamlessly integrate the living room and outdoor spaces, creating a cohesive flow between them.
“We opted for low-profile furnishings to avoid obstructing the view, and a monochromatic palette.” Using sleek and understated pieces maintained the visual integrity of the space and also allowed the outdoors to take center space.
Including sections was a strategic decision, and Moreira tells me it played a dual role. “This maximizes seating capacity without compromising aesthetics, resulting in spaces that feel both inviting and warm,” she says. “Our approach successfully fused functionality with aesthetics, ensuring a seamless blend between the spaces, which epitomizes the essence of indoor-outdoor living.”
Entertainment-Focused Gathering Spaces
During the pandemic, Parker says homeowners found new ways to entertain themselves from the comfort of their homes — and some of these activities have become mainstays. “Snuggling up with family and friends during winter gatherings to enjoy films or live sports, for example, may be here to stay, with searches for ‘family room with tv over fireplace,’ ‘living room with built-in entertainment,’ and ‘small home theater’ increasing nearly 4.5x, 3.5x and 2x, respectively, he says.
“A ‘four-season room’ (up almost 2.5x) provides an enclosed sanctuary to take in landscapes from floor-to-ceiling windows.” In addition, Mitchell tells me that adding a ‘sectional with coffee table,” which spiked 47x, creates a sociable living space to play games or gather before and after meals.
Mastrangeli tells me that homeowners expect a seamless connection between entertainment and their living spaces. “Seamlessly integrating a television over the fireplace or creating a custom built-in for technology has been requested often by our clients.”
She also pairs coffee tables with sectionals for families because it makes everyday living easy. “From doing a puzzle, to playing a game, to having a place to rest a beverage, coffee tables are useful and a staple in most homes,” Mastrangeli says.
Entertainment-focused gathering spaces can also be good for resale value. “Everyone wants to believe that once they buy this place, they’re going to entertain, and anything that lends to the idea that it will be easy and comfortable to do in this space, is a huge selling point,” says Lindsay Barton Barrett of the Barton Barrett Marshall Team at Douglas Elliman in New York.
Since many buyers are upgrading their space, it’s always a good idea to show them an idealized lifestyle since they can’t always visualize how they would use a space. “And even buyers who are downsizing don’t want to feel like they won’t be able to have company,” she explains.
In this West Hollywood project, Moreira converted an underutilized bedroom into a small home theater. She says they layered luxurious textures throughout the space to create a cozy and intimate feel. “We enhanced the ceiling by introducing a dark, textured wallpaper to infuse a sense of drama, and velvet wallpaper on the walls for warmth.” To enhance the cozy ambiance, they incorporated a U-shaped sectional with ottomans, upholstered in a combination of velvet and mohair fabrics.
Next, Moreira and her team transformed a closet into a sophisticated bar. “We incorporated a hidden wine fridge behind panels, a leathered quartzite top, antiqued mirror backsplash, and floating wall shelves to showcase the client's favorite selection of wine and liquor bottles.”
When creating entertainment-focused gathering spaces, don’t forget about your kids. “In this Connecticut project, Moreira was tasked with creating a dedicated entertaining space for a client’s teenage daughter and her friends. “In this space, we chose vibrant colors to infuse a youthful and playful spirit into the space.”
The main sectional was upholstered in a white indoor/outdoor fabric making it easy to maintain. The teal contrasting welt and vibrant pillows added a playful element to the sectional.
Since the client’s daughter loves sweets, Moreira incorporated an elegant lucite snack cart to showcase her favorite snacks and treats, ensuring convenient access when she’s hanging out with her friends.
In this project, Cherry combines two trends: a greater connection to the outdoors and an entertainment-focused gathering space. “There definitely is a movement towards large-scale entertainment spaces, with sectionals coming back into popularity,” she says. Although placing a television over a family room fireplace has been a design trend for more than a decade, Cherry says she’s starting to see the use of ottomans with trays in lieu of coffee tables. | https://www.forbes.com/sites/terriwilliams/2023/12/31/the-houzz-emerging-winter-trends-report-part-1/ | 2024-01-01T03:51:19Z |
New Year's Eve: Major cities ring in 2024 as war shadows festivities elsewhere
Sydney and Auckland were among the world's first major cities to ring in 2024, with revelers cheering spectacular fireworks displays that lit up the skies over Sydney Harbor and New Zealand’s tallest structure, Sky Tower.
As the clock struck midnight in Australia, tons of explosives erupted in a 12-minute display that focused on the Sydney Harbor Bridge. More than 1 million people — a number equivalent to one in five of the city's residents — watched from the shore and from boats in the harbor.
"It’s total madness," said German tourist Janna Thomas, who had waited in line since 7:30 a.m. to secure a prime waterfront location in the Sydney Botanic Garden. "It’s not so easy to find a good place to sit, but the view is incredible."
In Auckland, the light rain that fell all day had cleared as forecast by midnight over the city of 1.7 million people before the countdown began on an illuminated digital display near the top of the 328-meter (1,076-foot) communications and observation tower.
The ongoing wars in Ukraine and Gaza, and heightened tensions in parts of the world, are affecting this year's New Year's Eve celebrations in a myriad of ways. Many cities were deploying extra security, and some places canceled New Year's Eve events altogether.
New Year’s NOW: Watch live coverage from around the world to ring in 2024
More police than ever were deployed throughout Sydney. The waterfront has been the scene of heated pro-Palestinian protests after the sails of the Sydney Opera House were illuminated in the colors of the Israeli flag in response to the Oct. 7 attack by Palestinian militant group Hamas that triggered the war.
At the Vatican, Pope Francis recalled 2023 as a year marked by wartime suffering. During his traditional Sunday blessing from a window overlooking St. Peter’s Square, he offered prayers for "the tormented Ukrainian people and the Palestinian and Israeli populations, the Sudanese people and many others."
"At the end of the year, we will have the courage to ask ourselves how many human lives have been shattered by armed conflict, how many dead and how much destruction, how much suffering, how much poverty," the pontiff said. "Whoever has interest in these conflicts, listen to the voice of conscience."
In Japan, temple bells rang out across the nation as people gathered at shrines and temples to welcome in the new year. At the Tsukiji Temple in Tokyo, visitors were given free hot milk and corn soup as they stood in line to strike a big bell, and a pipe-organ concert was held before a majestic altar.
In New York City, officials and party organizers said they were prepared to ensure the safety of tens of thousands of revelers expected to flood Times Square in the heart of midtown Manhattan.
Mayor Eric Adams said there were "no specific threats" to the annual New Year’s Eve bash, which was set to feature live performances from Flo Rida, Megan Thee Stallion and LL Cool J, as well as televised appearances from Cardi B and others. Organizers said in-person attendance was expected to return to pre-COVID levels, even as foot traffic around Times Square remains down slightly since the pandemic.
Amid near-daily protests sparked by the Israel-Hamas war in Gaza, New York City police said they would expand the security perimeter around the party, creating a "buffer zone" that would allow them to head off potential demonstrations.
Officials also planned to monitor any protests with drones, the mayor said.
"We will be out here with our canines, on horseback, our helicopters, our boats," Adams said. "But as we saw last year, after having no specific threats, we get a threat."
During last year’s New Year’s Eve party, a machete-wielding man attacked three police officers a few blocks from Times Square.
Security also will also be heightened across European cities on Sunday.
In France, 90,000 law enforcement officers were set to be deployed, domestic intelligence chief Céline Berthon said Friday.
Of those, 6,000 will be in Paris, where French Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin said over 1.5 million people are expected to attend celebrations on the Champs-Elysees.
Darmanin cited a "very high terrorist threat" partly because of the Israel-Hamas war. Police for the first time will be able to use drones as part of security work, he said, and tens of thousands of firefighters and 5,000 soldiers would also be deployed.
New Year’s Eve celebrations in the French capital will center on the 2024 Paris Olympic Games, including DJ sets, fireworks and video projections on the Arc de Triomphe, highlighting "changes in the city and faces of the Games," according to the press service of the City of Paris. Other planned events include "the largest Mexican wave ever performed" and a "giant karaoke."
The security challenge ahead of the Olympics was highlighted when a tourist was killed in a knife attack near the Eiffel Tower on Dec. 2. Large-scale attacks — such as that at the Bataclan in 2015, when Islamic extremists invaded the music hall and shot up cafe terraces, killing 130 people — also loom large.
In Berlin, some 4,500 police officers are expected to keep order and avoid riots like a year ago. Police in the German capital issued a ban on the traditional use of fire crackers for several streets across the city. They also banned a pro-Palestinian protest in the Neukoelln neighborhood of the city, which has seen several pro-Palestinian riots since the Oct. 7 attack by Hamas.
In Russia, the country's military actions in Ukraine have overshadowed end-of-year celebrations, with the usual fireworks and concert on Moscow’s Red Square canceled, as last year.
After shelling in the center of the Russian border city of Belgorod Saturday killed 24 people, some local authorities across Russia also canceled their usual firework displays, including in Vladivostok. Millions throughout Russia are expected to tune into Russian President Vladimir Putin’s New Year’s address.
In Muslim-majority Pakistan, the government has banned all New Year’s Eve celebrations as an act of solidarity with the Palestinians.
In an overnight televised message, caretaker Prime Minister Anwaar-ul-Haq Kakar urged Pakistanis to "show solidarity with the oppressed people of Gaza" by beginning the new year with simplicity.
Kakar said Muslims across the world were saddened over Israel’s attacks on Gaza that resulted in the killings of thousands of innocent people. | https://www.foxla.com/news/new-years-eve-fireworks-2024 | 2024-01-01T03:51:21Z |
North Korea’s Kim orders military to ‘thoroughly annihilate’ US, South Korea if provoked
SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — North Korean leader Kim Jong Un ordered his military to “thoroughly annihilate” the United States and South Korea if provoked, state media reported Monday, after he vowed to boost national defense to cope with what he called an unprecedented U.S.-led confrontation.
Kim is expected to ramp up weapons tests in 2024 ahead of the U.S. presidential election in November. Many experts say he likely believes his expanded nuclear arsenal would allow him to wrest U.S. concessions if former President Donald Trump is reelected.
In a five-day major ruling party meeting last week, Kim said he will launch three more military spy satellites, produce more nuclear materials and develop attack drones this year in what observers say is an attempt to increase his leverage in future diplomacy with the U.S.
In a meeting on Sunday with commanding army officers, Kim said it is urgent to sharpen “the treasured sword” to safeguard national security, an apparent reference to his country’s nuclear weapons program. He cited “the U.S. and other hostile forces’ military confrontation moves,” according to the official Korean Central News Agency.
Kim stressed that “our army should deal a deadly blow to thoroughly annihilate them by mobilizing all the toughest means and potentialities without moment’s hesitation” if they opt for military confrontation and provocations against North Korea, KCNA said.
In his New Year’s Day address Monday, South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol said he will strengthen his military’s preemptive strike, missile defense and retaliatory capabilities in response to the North Korean nuclear threat.
“The Republic of Korea is building genuine, lasting peace through strength, not a submissive peace that is dependent on the goodwill of the adversary,” Yoon said, using South Korea’s official name.
At the party meeting, Kim called South Korea “a hemiplegic malformation and colonial subordinate state” whose society is “tainted by Yankee culture.” He said his military must use all available means including nuclear weapons to “suppress the whole territory of South Korea” in the event of a conflict.
South Korea’s Defense Ministry warned in response that if North Korea attempts to use nuclear weapons, South Korean and U.S. forces will punish it overwhelmingly, resulting in the end of the Kim government.
Experts say small-scale military clashes between North and South Korea could happen this year along their heavily armed border. They say North Korea is also expected to test-launch intercontinental ballistic missiles capable of reaching the mainland U.S. and other major new weapons.
In 2018-19, Kim met Trump in three rounds of talks on North Korea’s expanding nuclear arsenal. The diplomacy fell apart after the U.S. rejected Kim’s limited offer to dismantle his main nuclear complex in exchange for extensive reductions in U.S.-led sanctions.
Kim has since sought to modernize his weapons arsenal and strengthen North Korea’s relationships with China and Russia. KCNA said Kim and Chinese President Xi Jinping exchanged New Year’s Day messages on Monday on bolstering bilateral ties.
North Korea faces suspicions that it has supplied conventional arms for Russia’s war in Ukraine in return for sophisticated Russian technologies to enhance the North’s military programs.
Estimates of the size of North Korea’s nuclear arsenal vary, ranging from about 20-30 bombs to more than 100. Many foreign experts say North Korea still has some technological hurdles to overcome to produce functioning nuclear-armed ICBMs, though its shorter-range nuclear-capable missiles can reach South Korea and Japan.

JACKSON, Miss. – A federal judge has ruled that he will allow Mississippi officials to move forward with creating a state-run court in part of the majority-Black capital city of Jackson, over objections from the NAACP.
Attorneys for the civil rights organization had sued on behalf of several Jackson residents, saying the new court undermines democracy because local voters or local elected officials won't choose its judge or prosecutors.
The new Capitol Complex Improvement District Court will have a judge appointed by the state Supreme Court chief justice and prosecutors appointed by the state attorney general — officials who are white and conservative.
In a ruling filed late Sunday, U.S. District Judge Henry Wingate dismissed requests to block the new court, which was created by the majority-white and Republican-controlled Mississippi Legislature. Jackson is governed by Democrats.
“None of the Plaintiffs has alleged that he or she is in actual or imminent danger of experiencing any concrete and particularized injury resulting from the establishment of the CCID Court or the challenged appointment of a judge or prosecutors for that court,” Wingate wrote.
Under a law signed by Republican Gov. Tate Reeves during the spring, the new court will come into existence Jan. 1 and will have jurisdiction in a part of Jackson that includes state government buildings and some residential and shopping areas.
Reeves and legislators who support the new court say it is part of an effort to control crime in Jackson — a city that has had more than 100 homicides for each of the past three years, in a population of about 150,000.
The Capitol Complex Improvement District Court will have the same power as municipal courts, which handle misdemeanor cases, traffic violations and initial appearances for some criminal charges. People convicted in most municipal courts face time in a local jail. Those convicted in the new court will be held in a state prison, near people convicted of more serious felony crimes.
Most municipal judges are appointed by city officials. Jackson has a Black mayor and majority-Black city council. The judge of the new court is not required to live in Jackson.
Legal arguments in the case touched on racial discrimination, public safety and democracy.
In response to plaintiffs' saying they do not feel represented by the chief justice or attorney general, Wingate wrote that they failed to prove they had ever complained to local officials or that local officials had been open to listening.
“Further, had the local officials been so obliging, this court is mystified why Jackson’s system of criminal justice is in the deplorable shape it is in, with an overcrowded docket requiring defendants to jettison any notion of a speedy disposition,” Wingate wrote.
NAACP attorneys intend to appeal the ruling.
Attorney General Lynn Fitch's office will continue to defend the law and “perform our duties to help protect the people of Jackson from stifling, suffocating crime that plagues the city,” chief of staff Michelle Williams said Sunday.
The state law creating the new court also expands the patrol territory for Capitol Police. The state-run police department previously patrolled near state government buildings in downtown Jackson, but the new law added other parts of the city, including more affluent residential and shopping areas.
In September, the Mississippi Supreme Court struck down the part of the same law that would have required the state chief justice to appoint four circuit judges to serve alongside the four elected circuit judges in Hinds County. The county includes Jackson and is also majority-Black and governed by Democrats.
Justices wrote that longstanding Mississippi law allows the chief justice to appoint some judges for specific reasons, such as to deal with a backlog of cases. But they wrote that “we see nothing special or unique” about the four appointed Hinds County circuit judges in the 2023 law, “certainly nothing expressly tethering them to a specific judicial need or exigency.”

The blue Mitsubishi Magna sedan was burned-out at Keith Thomas Park on Sunday night or Monday morning.
Orange police chief inspector Peter Atkins told the Central Western Daily it had earlier been involved in an alleged pursuit.
It's unclear if the car was stolen. No arrests have been made and investigations continue.
Keith Thomas Park is located between Matthews Avenue and Boolaroo Place, north of the Orange CBD.
The incident follows more than a dozen car fires in the Orange region during 2023.
Earlier this month a stolen station wagon was found on fire at Margaret Stevenson Park.
In June at least five cars were stolen and burned during one 26-hour crime spree. | https://www.centralwesterndaily.com.au/story/8473604/car-fire-at-public-park-in-orange-after-alleged-police-chase/ | 2024-01-01T03:51:22Z |
