MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) — A lawyer for one of five former Memphis officers charged with fatally beating Tyre Nichols after a traffic stop said in court documents that investigators found a hallucinogenic drug and stolen credit cards in the Black man’s car when he was pulled over, but authorities have not confirmed the claims. A lawyer for Justin Smith said the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation’s inventory of Nichols’ car showed he had psilocybin, a substance found in mushrooms, when police stopped him Jan. 7 for an alleged reckless driving violation before he was beaten during a confrontation caught on police video.The lawyer, Martin Zummach, said the ex-officers’ attorneys learned from a review of the inventory that Nichols had stolen credit cards, debit cards and photo identifications in his car. Zummach made the claims in a court filing joining another officer’s request for prosecutors to give them Nichols’ cell phone records as part of the federal...Hamas amenaza con ejecutar a un rehén por cada ataque de Israel en Gaza sin previo aviso

GAZA – El grupo islamista Hamas amenazó este lunes con ejecutar “públicamente” a los rehenes israelíes civiles si Israel continúa los bombardeos sobre la Franja de Gaza sin previo aviso a los residentes.“Cualquier ataque contra casas inocentes en Gaza sin previo aviso y alerta se enfrentará a la ejecución pública de un rehén”, afirmó en un comunicado Abu Obeida, portavoz de las brigadas de Al Qasam, brazo armado de Hamas.“La ejecución será de rehenes civiles, no militares, y se transmitirá en línea”, agregó.

Published Thu, 31 Oct 2024 23:45:41 GMT
WASHINGTON (AP) — Two Federal Reserve officials suggested Monday that the central bank may leave interest rates unchanged at its next meeting in three weeks because a surge in long-term interest rates has made borrowing more expensive and could help cool inflation without further action by the Fed. Since late July, the yield, or rate, on the 10-year U.S. Treasury note has jumped from around 4% to about 4.8%, a 16-year high. The run-up in the yield has inflated other borrowing costs and raised the national average 30-year mortgage rate to 7.5%, according to Freddie Mac, a 23-year high. Business borrowing costs have also risen as corporate bond yields have accelerated. Philip Jefferson, vice chair of the Fed’s board and a close ally of Chair Jerome Powell, said in a speech Monday to the National Association for Business Economics that he would “remain cognizant” of the higher bond rates and “keep that in mind as I assess the future path of policy.” Jefferson’s comments fol...Jalen Hurts finally flashes a breakout run game.

PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Jalen Hurts had been more grounded this season than he was a year ago, when he was an explosive runner in a breakout season that saw him lead the Eagles to the Super Bowl.The big plays will come, he insisted.Hurts finally broke free Sunday in a win against the Rams.The Eagles led by three in the third quarter when they faced third-and-7 in their own territory. Maybe the Rams would have one more scoring drive in them should they stop the Eagles and force a punt.Hurts instead dropped back, faced pressure and took off toward his right sideline and beat two defenders before bruising his way for a few more yards. Hurts got 17 yards on the run that kept the drive alive and ended with a field goal.That was the Hurts the Eagles had waited for this season.“There’s gonna be games he has to get freaky out there,” coach Nick Sirianni said. “I thought he did a really nice job of making some plays that only he can make.”Hurts passed for 303 yards and a touchdown and rushed for...Will you be able to see Saturday's solar eclipse in Denver?

DENVER (KDVR) -- Oct. 14 marks the annual solar eclipse, where the moon passes between the sun and Earth creating a "ring of fire." While Denver's not exactly in the total eclipse path, people in the Mile High City still might get a chance to see it.The map below shows the “path of annularity," a track less than 150 miles wide from which the “ring of fire” will be visible in October. MAP: Will you be able to see the 2023 annular eclipse in Colorado? While Denver isn't exactly close to the path of full visibility, physics and astronomy professors at Regis University say Denver will still get to see a partial eclipse.In the mid-morning of the 14th, Denver will see about 85% coverage."It won't be an annular 'ring of fire' like in southwest Colorado, but it should still be an impressive solar event," said Frederick Gray, Ph.D., professor and chair of the Department of Physics and Astronomy at Regis University.

Published Thu, 31 Oct 2024 23:45:41 GMT
The EU’s united front on Israel’s war with Hamas is already showing its first cracks.On Monday, EU Enlargement Commissioner Olivér Várhelyi announced the Commission would put €691 million in aid to the Palestinian Authority under review, with all payments immediately suspended. Hours later, with that move causing concern across the bloc, the EU’s top diplomat, Josep Borrell, said the Commission “will not suspend the due payments” as “punishing all the Palestinian people” would have “damaged the EU interests in the region and would have only further emboldened terrorists.”Before the U-turn, there were already public disagreements within the Commission over whether to freeze aid to the Palestinian Authority. Meanwhile, Tuesday’s EU foreign affairs ministers meeting risks leading to an internal showdown, EU diplomats and officials warned, given the disagreements between EU countries on the conflict. “Israel-Palestine is one of the m...As Republicans split over who will be House speaker, McCarthy positions himself as a de facto leader

By LISA MASCARO and KEVIN FREKING (Associated Press)WASHINGTON (AP) — Republicans have no clear idea who to elect U.S. House speaker, leaving an unprecedented power vacuum in Congress and severely limiting America’s ability to quickly respond to the crisis in Israel — or any number of other problems at home or abroad.On Monday, the ousted former speaker, Kevin McCarthy, quickly jumped into the void, bitterly criticizing President Joe Biden’s administration over the strength of its defense of Israel and positioning himself as a de facto Republican leader even though his colleagues toppled him from power.But it’s not at all clear if McCarthy could seriously make a comeback — or if any other Republicans seeking the gavel, Steve Scalise or Jim Jordan — can be elected speaker as their majority dissembles into infighting.

SAN LUIS — When the water is flowing down from the mountains, Joe Lobato wakes up most mornings and drives from his home in San Luis to his fields spread across the valley where his family has farmed for more than 100 years.During spring and summer runoff, Lobato uses a series of ditches to direct water to the fields where he grows alfalfa, mixed grains and Timothy grass. He strategically opens and closes a series of gates and places tarps in the ditches to direct the water to flood his fields at the right time.But driving all over Costilla County and manually opening and closing gates or placing tarps to direct water is time intensive — especially since Lobato and his family all work other full-time jobs in addition to farming.“You have to work a day job to afford to farm or ranch,” he said.The Lobatos are one of the first farming families in the state to try a new, Colorado-grown technology aimed at reducing farmers’ workload and managing Colorado’s shrinking water supply more eff...Latest news
