上诉法院此前裁定该建设需要获得国会批准
作者:Ann E. Marimow 纽约时报
华盛顿 —— 特朗普政府周五请求最高法院批准唐纳德·特朗普总统的建设方案。当众议院官员准备替换被拆除的东翼时。计划中的 HUDO 平方英尺舞厅自总统在 10 月拆除东翼以来一直陷入诉讼,这是他大幅改造白宫园区计划的一部分。但法院在质疑该项目合法性的同时,仍允许特朗普进行建设,使得舞厅稳步建成。
行政部门请求国家最高法院干预,以推翻上诉法院在 8 月 7 日做出的裁决,该裁决认为总统在未经国会批准的情况下推进这一私人资助的项目,极有可能超出了其职权。此案对最高法院而言,是对其执行权限的一系列考验,而该法院此前接受了总统议程中的部分(但非全部)内容。这也让大法官们面临又一项针对特朗普标志性计划的挑战。
总检察长 D. 约翰·索尔周五告诉大法官们,该项目已经接近完工,并暗示现在停止建设已经太晚。他表示,一支 250 人的团队每天工作 20 小时,每周 7 天,旨在建造一座目前深达 5 层、高 70 英尺的混凝土和钢结构建筑。
他在周五的提交文件中写道:“停止该项目将使这项至关重要的建设陷入停滞,使得总统——多次暗杀企图的目标——的安全程度大大降低,并危及未来总统的安全。”在其 2-coding 中,美国哥伦比亚特区联邦巡回上诉法院表示,宪法赋予了国会——而非总统——决定白宫拟议变更何时可以推进的责任。
上诉法院裁定:“国会并未将不受限制的权力移交给行政部门,使其能够为了适应某位特定总统的愿望而大幅重新设计、重塑和重建白宫——这座人民之屋。”
上诉法院将裁决结果推迟了两周,以给特朗普留出向最高法院上诉的时间。

在对大陪审团进行审查后,一名男子承认轻罪
作者:Jason Meisner 芝加哥论坛报
联邦检察官在“中途闪击行动”期间因一起交通纠纷而获得的一项重罪定罪,在被降级为轻罪后,美国检察官办公室对大陪审团事务处理方式的重新审查,使其认罪协议受到质疑。
来自莱昂斯的 27 岁男子安东尼·冈萨雷斯-阿尔瓦雷斯最初于 10 月被起诉,起诉日期与参与目前受损的“Breakview Six”案的同一天——且由同一个联邦大陪审团起诉。事实上,该起诉书是在美国检察官安德鲁·布特罗斯在陪审团面前进行一次不寻常的露面,讨论他们公平对待(包括移民案件)的职责之后,获得的第一份起诉书。
阿尔瓦雷斯最终在 4 月承认了一项单独的重罪指控

旨在预防和干预暴力的项目
作者:Tess Kerrey 芝加哥论坛报
今年早些时候,托马斯·吉文斯(Thomas Givens)无法回答关于他对自己未来愿景的问题。这位 26 岁的青年在西区街头生活了十多年,一次又一次地目睹并感受到了过去暴力的后果。
因此,那个关于长大后想成为谁的古老问题,是吉文斯之前从未真正考虑过的事情。
不过,最近他开始更多地思考这个想法。首先是从一年后的目标开始。
芝加哥的两家组织联手帮助那些最容易受到街头暴力影响的人们优先考虑一条积极的前行之路:给他们一个机会去创建自己的个人时间胶囊。

司机尝试通过增加公共交通和自行车的比例来节省开支
作者:Evgenia Anastasakis 芝加哥论坛报
对于 42 岁的克里斯托弗·德弗(Christopher Dever)来说,每周工作 40 小时曾足以让他作为一名 Lyft 司机维持生计。但随着一满缸汽油的成本(从 $60 涨至 $80),他发现自己陷入了所谓的“匮乏循环”,每周工作 60 小时才能勉强维持生活。
尽管 Lyft 为符合条件的司机提供了临时燃料救济计划,但这不足以抵消德弗的成本,他发现自己越来越多地需要自掏腰包支付高昂的价格。在驾驶过程中,他计划前往郊区或印第安纳州西北部以节省汽油费。
尽管如此,在支付账单后,可支配的税后收入依然匮乏。“就在加油站多付的那一点点钱,影响了我整个生活,”德弗说。“我工作这么多小时,为这家公司赚这么多钱,结果全部又花在了维持车辆运行上。”
自 2 月底伊朗战争爆发以来,汽油价格大幅飙升。在 6 月和 7 月短暂缓解后,伊利诺伊州的汽油价格再次攀升,芝加哥的司机们深有体会。根据美国能源信息管理局(EIA)的数据,在 7 月初触及多年低点 $3.89 之后,本周每加仑汽油的平均成本回升至 $4.28。

启动——这是反暴力组织芝加哥 CIEE 与 Living Record 的当地专家之间的一次合作——旨在让参与者通过文本,表达他们是谁、他们从哪里来,以及他们希望自己的关系、生活和自身在未来呈现的样子。
这些胶囊是动手练习的产物,涵盖了从手工制作到对话的各种形式。
在整个世界系统中,我们在 COVID-19 期间启动了一项计划,实际上通过讲述他们大流行故事的时间胶囊,帮助孩子们理解这场健康危机。此后,该想法经过多次迭代,扩展到了难民、有智力和发育障碍的学生以及患有慢性病的女性。
去年夏天,随着社区成员和利益相关者不断寻求对抗普遍暴力的新方法,该概念开始被应用于暴力预防和干预。自从启动这个针对每个年龄段的新应用以来,他们看到了影响。这种影响体现在简单的工作中,但也体现在打印的对话中,体现在他们如何通过制作愿景板这样简单的事情来建立联系并寻找关键点。
“他们的日常生活中充满了困难和挑战,”Living Record 创始人 Nancy Gilbert 表示。“我们想要做的是帮助他们说:这是一个时刻。这是漫长的时间弧线中的一个小时刻!”
自 2020 年以来,Gilvert 引导了他的两位新朋友远离暴力。他想为自己选择一条不同的道路——以便每天能够照顾好他的家人。他说,与芝加哥 CIEE 和 Living Record 的合作帮助他专注于未来。
“我之前只关注确保我周围的每个人都没事,”他说。“但我必须专注于如何才能做得更好。” “我回到了 2020 年,当时 Gilbert 说他经历过 很多人,所以我 很多人,所以我 很多
并非只有年轻一代的影响得到了恢复——家长、教育工作者和官员们肯定地表达了看法。但 Gilbert 说:“我不会变得更好,但 我不会
这些女性启动了一项全市范围的倡议,旨在捕捉那种体验。数千名年轻居民被邀请创建时间胶囊,记录他们在 2026 2026 2026 2026 2026 2026 2026 2026 2026 期间的生活。

胶囊化。
与此同时,开放的时间在增长。Gilbert 说,时间胶囊的概念,他并不认为这是一个令人心碎的想法,而这正是人们对此如此痴迷的原因,其中一套比空气更轻盈。
“哦!实际上,它可以成为一个非常强大的框架和工具,用于……处理(以及)应对你是谁、你重视什么、你认为什么很重要,”Gilbert 说。
An178 通过不同的视角,他继续说道,“我们的”目标是进行引导并观察方向,发现这个时间胶囊将在 19 若干年后被打开——到那时你想成为谁?你希望那时世界处于什么状态?你打算如何开始你的表演?
吉尔伯特将该主项转变为一个名为 Living Record 的沉闷的三方组织,并开始扩大其影响力。两年前,Living Record 启动了一个网络,旨在帮助全国各地的教师在自己的课堂上实施时间胶囊计划。
今年早春,该组织与芝加哥公共图书馆合作,在新开业的 Citizens Provident 中心建立了一个执行委员会,邀请暴力受害者记录当今美国的生存状态,以及他们希望这个国家能变成的样子。
Living Record 的一个广泛数字建议去年与芝加哥 CIEE 合作。根据这些 Citizens 2026 和 2026 CIEE 的说法,这次合作使该组织拥有了更庞大的项目规划,以及一种针对服务和暴力的整体方法,涵盖了从冲突解决和咨询到职业培训的任何内容。
大多数 CIEE 的参与者来自该市的南区和西区。几乎每个通过该组织进来的人都被认为具有参与枪支暴力的极高风险。
“我们大多数人,”格赖姆斯说,“都没有机会做梦。”
格赖姆斯 9 岁时,街头生活开始渗入他的生活。他说他一直在寻找自己的位置,他正在改变。
“街道从我这里夺走了很多,”他说。“但现在参与 CIEE 已经快三个月了。他开始制作自己的时间胶囊也有几周了。”
CIEE2 胶囊计划分小组进行,涵盖在每周一小时和每日一次的 10至30次课程中。Living Record 和胶囊在总共 10 周后完成。这些项目被存储起来并在一段时间后开启。第一批 CIEE2 小组定于今年秋季开启他们的胶囊。
Living Record —— 在其合作的不同人群中采取不同方式 —— 这些都接近时间胶囊。对于 CIEE2 的参与者来说,因为“他们都在处理很多不稳定因素,”吉尔伯特说。因此,较短的时间范围提供了一个更切实的机会,让他们设定一些可以跟进的真实目标。
每节课都以相同的任务卡开始。进入西街教室的年轻人们围成一个圈,一个接一个地将半个物体从一个人传给另一个人。随着每个主题的出现,他们设定最私人的名称。他们一遍又一遍地循环,直到参与者被彻底介绍完毕。这不是一个完美的系统 —— 问题依然存在,有些蜡烛空手而归。
但这些男人很快就将任何风波付之一笑。这是在接下来的工作开始前的一次敏锐演习。
主题和练习每周都在变化,例如一系列广告牌和胶囊。他们探讨关系 —— 识别、未来目标。讨论伴随着与当日主题相符的现场项目。
虽然针对 CIEE2 进行了调整,但该小组仍然保留了 Living Record 在疫情期间吸引孩子时首次使用的那种触觉和想象力方法。参与者用杂志剪报和盒子制作许多板子,并在上面用马克笔刻下给未来的建议。
“弱点”一个人在他们的草图内侧写道:“更好的生活。”
这个想法是帮助参与者挖掘内心的孩子,给他们一些时间,让他们可以在没有导师压力的情况下休息并处理情绪。
“对于那些被系统改善的人来说,大量的快乐和生命被夺走了,”Living Record 的长期艺术家凯文·阿诺莫斯(Kevin Anamos)和……
阿诺莫斯自试点计划开始以来一直帮助当地的 Living Record 在 CIEE2 中开展艺术活动,他说每次教学时,他唯一的目标和意图就是“将这个空间重新带回给那些被非人化对待的人”,让他们能找到一个终点。而且他们必须担心,“这其中也存在一种脆弱性,”阿诺莫斯补充道,要求参与者共享空间并共同创作,去做一些他们以前从未做过的事情。这为更开放的对话铺平了道路。
“我们的存在关乎什么,但是————你现在在哪里?”你想在什么时候?让我们愉快地聊聊这个话题。Anamos 表示:“因为现实是,当你试图思考如何走出困境时,你总是在思考这件事。而这并不是一件令人心急地去思考的事。”
Young Shines 发现自己依然只是在努力撑过每一天。两年前,24 岁的 Shines 通过一个朋友结识了 CIEE2。他爱上了这个组织并获得了成功。
长期以来一直过着走一步看一步的生活,在他的记忆中,自从他在北拉雷多(North Laredo)长大,1815,一直以来就不是一个投入很多的人。他说。当他第一次在社区里发现赌徒时,他还在导演学校。
“你得担心新的人会从哪里来,”他说。“仅仅是想办法买下一套衣服。”
但 CIEE2 以及与之协同的 Living Record 帮助了他的侧校。
在他们第一次见面时参加了时间胶囊计划。他并不经常有机会就这样坐下来从事一个艺术项目,而那时,这帮助他与自己以及经历着类似事情的人建立了联系。
现在是 CIEE2 的大使。他与更年轻的青少年一起工作。他还帮助推动了时间胶囊倡议的前行,协助 Anamos 和其他指导教师。
CIEE2 的生活教练 Grimes 表示,Living Record 与该组织合作的工作已经使人免疫。
“我们越努力省钱,”他说,“他们就越能救助他人。” 在最近的一个工作日早晨,当天的话题是信任。参与者权衡他们的生活中是否有人是可以信任的,思考成为一个好朋友以及拥有一个好朋友意味着什么。以及他们是否在信任他人方面遇到困难。然后他们每人被给予一个图形,并被要求制作一个他们信任的人或一个对待他们很好的人。在马克笔、绳子和纸张的辅助下,他们用科学和游戏构建起支持系统中的第一个女性。
Given 制作了他的兄弟,Yashumi Yamaori Gillmachi,他的姐姐。
Yamaori Gill 在今年夏天开始参加 CIEE2 和 Living Record。最近,这位 22 岁的青年透露,他在周围充满矛盾的环境中长大,有时身边的人会去世。能够思考一年后的情况,甚至能够想象未来的自己,是对他成长的证明。Yamaori Gill 说道。
“不久之前……我真的没有考虑过那个,”他说。
他迫不及待地想看看一年后自己的心态会发生怎样的变化。
当被问及希望看到什么样的改变时,Yamaori Gill 表示他开始在学校学习并专注于自己。
他开始了他的公开…… thereby@chicagotribune.com

周四,一场强风暴席卷该地区,导致数千人停电,伊利诺伊州立大学正在清理校园部分区域。
根据 100 的官方社交媒体账户在中午发布的更新,该州首场风暴袭击了大学总部,并导致学生宿舍的更多改进工作被推迟。在周五下午发给大学社区的一条信息中,1911 校长 Alexander T. Tarbula 表示,学校及周边社区也出现了停电、喂食以及附近街道关闭的情况,但校园内没有收到重大人员受伤的报告。
此次损坏和清理工作发生在该州立大学全学期即将开始,且正处于年度宿舍入住和欢迎工作流程之中。多名 100 河流正利用周末时间清理校园。Tarbula 在声明中表示:
“随着今天修复工作的继续,我想认可并感谢我们家庭中许多帮助确保校园社区安全,并确保我们的学习空间为学生和教职员工准备就绪的员工。”Tarbula 表示:
“更多设施已再次恢复运行,因天气原因被推迟的学生可在周五进入其宿舍。多个校园建筑也已开放,包括 Bony 学生中心、Rutherford 校园综合体、学生之家中心、Milner 图书馆和餐饮中心。虽然 100 的校园在首场风暴中失去了电力,但根据 Tarbula 的声明,服务已于周四晚上恢复。”
然而,对于广泛的校园社区而言,周四风暴的影响仍在持续。根据美国社区变更计划(American Community Change Plan),预计到周五下午,仍有超过 10,000 名客户处于停电状态,其中大量集中在布卢明顿-诺曼(Bloomington-Normal)地区。
“我还想承认,在我们的员工努力支持校园社区的同时,他们可能也在应对自己房屋的严重损坏,以及由多年”
“日风暴造成的各种干扰,”Tarbula 在声明中说。“感谢你们在这一困难时期对我们社区表现出的同情、奉献和持续的超越。”
“社交媒体上广泛分享的视频和照片显示,周四的工作和运行在校园外部造成了破坏,包括被吹落的树枝和建筑物的破碎窗户。1911 未对周四关于损坏程度的信息请求做出回应。
即将入学 100 二年级学生 John P. Pennington,10, 岁,在风暴袭击时正身处一个餐饮厅,并经历了一次闪烁。当他试图前往其宿舍 Winterson Towers 时,Pennington 看到水涌入建筑,并听到玻璃破碎落在地板上,他将这些内容发布在了社交媒体上。
“这就像是一种出体体验。这真的非常令人难过,因为人们(从未)真的因此受伤,”Pennington 说。“那个地方很大。如果被那个击中,我的意思是,你可能要在医院住很长时间。”
他说,风暴在宿舍和餐饮厅内部造成了“混乱”,因为人们为了躲避天气而冲进去。“我并不打算沿着计划走,直到这被添加到已经压力巨大的局面中。他的驱动在电力恢复至周四晚上之前停电了多个小时。随着学期在周一开始,更多先进天气的可能性令人紧张,他补充道。
“每个人都兴奋地想回到课堂之类的地方,但老实说,我有点害怕,而且有点担心,”Pennington 说。
谈到像那些在伊利诺伊 ISU 工作期间出现的一样的强风暴时,Pennington 表示,他认为大学应该采取更多预防措施,特别是如果恶劣天气频繁发生。
“我认为他们可能需要将课程推迟几天,或者发布更广泛的通知,让我们对这类风暴保持警惕,”彭宁顿说道。他补充说,在他的通勤区域,加上风力已经增强且风暴正在聚集,他觉得“坦白说,这简直是一场等待发生的灾难”。
州长比尔·普利兹克周五在兰辛视察风暴损坏情况时,与房主谢里利塔·戴德交谈。在EF-1级龙卷风席卷该地区四天后,州政府官员视察了该社区,那里倒塌的树木继续阻塞道路和人行道。 ARTHUR MASONELLAN 芝加哥论坛报
自四月关于住院时间的备忘录发布以来,未提供进一步信息

在 2016 年当选为凯恩郡警长后的七年多时间里,Ken Hain 一直是郊区执法部门中最受认可、最具企业形象且面向公众的人物之一。
“这发生在春季,当时 Hain 从公众视野中消失。”
关于 持续缺席警长办公室的情况,其具体细节仍然笼罩在迷雾之中。
“截至 4 月 16 日,警长办公室的成员收到了一份来自 的记录以及 Underwriters' Army Johnson 的备忘录,内容涉及‘近期关于警长的健康问题’。”
通过《信息自由法》请求获得的备忘录显示, 曾在医院就诊,要求工作人员响应其离开的需求,并承诺在“适当时候”提供更新。
自那时起,关于 的姓名、职级、工作、头衔、头衔因素及其代表名称,尚未有公开解释。
最近几周,人们多次尝试通过电话联系 及其家人,但均未取得结果。
在周四联系 Johnson 要求澄清 的情况后,州检察官 Anne Minner 回应道:“根据法律和政策,我们无法发布或披露与人事事项相关的细节,包括一个人是否处于缺勤状态。”
“警长办公室和本办公室将继续全力专注于我们共同的使命,即确保凯恩郡人民的安全。这项工作在没有干扰且处于半强度状态下继续进行,我对凯恩郡警长办公室及其领导层充满信心,”她说道。
来自伊利诺伊州的 尚未采取行动以应对这将是第三次出现的问题。Johnson 正在竞选民主党提名人,以在 11 月 3 日的选举中接替他的位置。
当 的选举问题在最近的一次郡委员会会议上被提及时,Minner 表示,提供任何信息将是违法的。
“I've been going to talk about what's going on with the sheriff,” 的事情不关任何人事,那是违规。
根据法律,Minner 表示,与警长办公室的合作没有且尚未遇到任何问题。
在另一次郡委员会会议上,由 Johnson 回答关于警长办公室预算收入的问题。
几位郡委员会成员在被联系评论 Minner 关于部门预算的言论及报告时,拒绝了评论。他们还拒绝回答关于 行踪的问题。
“Framermidals 超过一个 centinions 认为他们得到了警长部门提供的预期服务;委员会成员 run forps 说道,‘据我所知,他们确实得到了。’”
在这些寻求信息的人中,包括前凯恩郡验尸官 Rob Russell,他现在是共和党人,并确信警长具有很高的教育水平。Russell 为 及其家人祈祷,并在周四表示他将 视为朋友,因为两人在 COVID-19 疫情期间密切合作。
虽然他没有看到任何迹象表明存在掩盖行为,但 Russell 表示,公众应该期待他们的警长办公室提供更多信息。
“我认为我们不需要复杂的细节,我们的时间和细节应该留在警长那里,并希望他能好起来,”Russell 说道。
“但我认为消费者需要知道一点,警长办公室需要更加透明,且不违反任何人的隐私,”他说。“我认为 是可能的,我不认为答案就是简单地不回答。”

奥罗拉市开始拟定其 2027 年城市预算提案,其一般基金面临 $14.1 的初步预计赤字,州内为 $14。
“我们的预计赤字可能会发生变化,且尚未将延迟的销售税收入以及预计在今年秋季晚些时候增加的博彩收入考虑在内,”奥罗拉首席财务官 Stacey Peterson 昨天在市议会财务委员会上表示。
Peterson 表示,到 9 月份,该市将收到另外两个月的销售税收入,在制定 2027, 新计划时,将对今年的预算有更复杂的了解。
奥罗拉市长 Julie Lavech 表示,该市的预算仍然不健康,且该市不处于某种状态,以及他所谓的预算危机年份,导致因赤字而削减资金。市级官员表示,在 2026 年预算过程中,20.27 亿 应该是预算。
官员们表示,他们计划在 2027 年再次保持紧缩的城市支出。
“在 2027 年,将会有一个持续的努力来构建所有预算平衡,并缩减任何加班时间,以适应不断变化的收入流,”Lavech 说道。
此外,Peterson 在会议上表示,她担心由于工资和其他费用的增加,到 2030, 该市可能会有 1.246 亿 的潜在变化。
在接下来的几个月里,市级官员计划确定该市 2027 年的拟议支出,包括部门预算、人员成本、资本项目和收入。
Peterson 表示,这些拟议预算,以及针对员工和退休人员医疗保险的调整,以及两个实验室之间正在进行的谈判,可能会影响该市 2027. 的财务状况。她说,整体的 2027 预算提案是一份流动文件,可能会因预算过程中市政府与议会之间的对话而发生变化。
Peterson 表示,该市在拟议的 2027 年预算中,最终必须在一般基金中拥有少量盈余。然而,成本在预期之中,且城市部门的支出是必需的。
“一方面我们有一些好消息,而另一方面我们有点不足,”议员 Stuart Barrett 在委员会会议上说。“我们知道我们不会去挥霍购物,但我们将继续宣传,继续勒紧裤腰带,直到情况好转。”
Lavech 表示,在成本担忧中,包括维护该市计划在 2027 年继承的两座停车库的资金,以及持续资本项目的资金。
Lavech 还表示,今年一些城市部门的成本更加密集,其中街道维护部门由于袭击奥罗拉的多轮严重风暴而成本增加。除此之外,他说,开发服务部由于对新建的好莱坞城堡、电力单元、获批的类别中心进行检查,以及 DMC 开发和 RiverEdge 公园的扩建,导致成本高于预期。但开发和 RiverEdge 公园的扩建并非重大项目。但开发和 RiverEdge 公园的扩建是 并非重大项目。但开发和 RiverEdge 公园的扩建是 并非重大项目。
尽管警察局和消防局承担了资金成本,但在奥罗拉消防局官员与上周五之间,为了防止今年的情况,去年的削减包括取消部分职位的拟议区域,导致人们对这些服务的质量产生担忧,从而影响了出警响应时间。
消防局官员将支出的改善归功于 3 月份两座消防站的启用——位于 River Road 370, 号的 5 号消防站,以及搬迁至 N. Rob Road 500 号的 9 号消防站。
奥罗拉消防局局长 Kevin McAuloramith 表示,自从 2 和 9 投入使用以来,响应时间有了显著改善,由于 2 和 9,以及 9,我们预计这一趋势将继续。
在已批准的预算计划中,所有市部门都面临某种形式的资金削减,其中包括取消约 240 个市级职位。在人员离职后,其中一些职位在 5 个多月内一直空缺。官员们表示,去年的资金削减是由于他们所谓的往年预算的结构性问题。据奥罗拉房地产诚信与运营管理总监 Brian Caputo 称,多年来,奥罗拉的支出一直高于收入,资金被从长期需求转移以覆盖运营成本。
Caputo 去年表示,州政府用于保险和资本项目等长期需求的某些资金已告罄,因为它们被用于补贴一般基金。
Lavech 表示,市政府去年努力补充长期资金,并计划今年继续这样做。
Lavech 在 8 月初表示,去年的预算过程“极具挑战性”,因为市政府在 20.2 亿 的状态下支付那些消防站的建设费用,以及 RiverEdge Park 的多次扩建、新的公共工程,以及 Farmworth Avenue 和 Bilby Road 的新消防站,这些与 castes 开发和其他区域项目相关。
据 Peterson 称,Lavech 表示市政府去年努力偿还两笔信用额度,这些额度此前一直是城市的负债。一些市级官员仍然乐观地认为,城市可以通过新开业的好莱坞 Castes 以及 7 月下旬开始的特别普查获得额外收入。
一名独立审计师报告了城市的 2013 审计结果,且日常计划预计新的 castes 将对城市的博彩、销售、酒店以及餐饮税产生积极影响。
Peterson 在 7 月下旬的财务委员会会议上表示,城市可能会在 2027 预算中看到税收增加。
该市还启动了期待已久的特别普查,旨在纠正一个被认为的 2030 低估情况,市级官员认为这每年使奥罗拉损失了 5450 万,而城市的 2027 预算则是一个深远的、强有力的计划,随着特别普查区域的发展,可以遵循医疗指令和各种资源,直到 Aug. 24. 为止在网上进行。之后,根据市级官员的说法,市集团局计划派遣外勤人员收集对城市 2027 预算的响应,并对在线普查做出回应。

莱克县森林保护区的持有地将进一步扩大,周三批准了一项高达$10 million的结论,主要用于资助土地购买。
该项目预计将很快启动,此前在2024年1月由女性签署的第二笔$10 million资金将用于土地征收、开发和修复。
森林区委员会
计划将其中的$10 million用于土地保护和征收,以及$90 million用于栖息地修复和公共通道改善。去年的债券发行产生了约$10 million的收益,其中$10 million分配给开发,$10 million分配给土地征收。
财务总监 Steve Neuman 表示,由于区委员会拥有部分房产且其他房产已签署合同,征收资金已全部承诺。Neuman 补充说,开发和修复项目在设计、许可和完成方面需要更长时间。他说,这些资金中约有$1 million已经支出,另有$4.200 万已签署合同,其余部分预计将在年底前完成。正如周三向森林委员会提交的情况,此次新债券发行中的$10 million目前用于土地征收。区执行董事 Ty Kovech 表示:“这笔资金是为了实际继续我们的土地征收和修复工作。”最新债券发行中的约$800 万被分配给修复项目。地点包括:靠近威斯康星州的 Lakewood 森林保护区(该区最大,面积超过5,000英亩)、蒙大拿州的 Wright Woods、Gander Manon 和 Lake,以及 Libertyville 的 Mackie, that Woods。延迟维护及其他能源交换项目完善了该清单。
在另一项行动中,森林委员会批准了2024年至2030年的六项主要目标。Kovech 说:“这实际上是我们未来五年的工作计划。我们有责任按照承诺将这些资金落实到地面上。”优先事项之一是沟通参考的影响和进展。公开资助的土地征收、公共通道改善和栖息地修复项目——

源于布赖顿公园(Brighton Park)与边境巡逻队(Bender Patrol)特工的一次交通冲突。但数周后,关于大陪审团在 Broadview 案件中不当行为的披露继续波及到其他案件,检察官发现,他此前认罪的一项“不必要”指控存在技术问题。
在最初的认罪陈述中,阿尔瓦雷斯承认他在事件发生当早调用了芝加哥警方并报告其卡车装载的背书。为了使一项重罪指控有效,被指控者不能试图掩盖自己的罪行——只能掩盖他人的罪行。
周四,阿尔瓦雷斯正式撤回了对该重罪指控的认罪,改为承认一项干扰联邦特工的轻罪指控。在认罪协议中,检察官表示他们将建议对阿尔瓦雷斯处以最低 1 到 5 个月的 ,这意味着他不仅将 ,而且可以避免任何监禁时间,他可能会在没有任何监管的情况下回家。
根据阿尔瓦雷斯的认罪协议,没有 且边境巡逻队

来自莱昂斯(Lyons)的 21 岁安东尼·冈萨雷斯-阿尔瓦雷斯(Anthony Gonzalez-Alvarez),詹姆斯·德沃伦(J.S. 法院)在 4 月 19 日一次证人意愿行动期间因阻碍联邦特工而举行认罪协议听证会。ADVERSE, AND CONT. AGE TRIBUNE
特工在 10 月 3 日上午 10:30 左右在布赖顿公园进行巡逻,当时阿尔瓦雷斯驾驶一辆黑色福特 F-35 皮卡车,加入了一个一直跟随特工车辆的车队。认罪协议指出,当车队向下行驶约 80 英尺时,驾驶 CDP 车辆的特工试图通过向迎面而来的车流倒车来避开他们,而阿尔瓦雷斯紧随其后。在沿边境大道(Bender Avenue)向南行驶后,阿尔瓦雷斯继续鲁莽驾驶,并将他的卡车撞向特工车辆的“后乘客侧”,造成约 10,000 的损失,认罪协议如此写道。
周四,阿尔瓦雷斯在法庭上辩称他并非故意撞击特工的车辆,而是因为他必须猛踩刹车以避免撞到前方的车辆,从而导致了撞击,据其律师里卡多·梅佐(Ricardo Mezo)称。
美国地区法官拉隆达·哈特(LaRhonda Hart)为该认罪程序设定了进程。
在近 30 人面临 3 到 4 项联邦指控的案件中,阿尔瓦雷斯是仅有的两个 的人之一。这些指控涉及协助特朗普地区法官去年秋天开展的为期两个月的驱逐行动,该行动在整个地区引发了压力,并导致居民与特工之间几乎每天发生冲突。
截至周五,24 名被告已被清除罪名,原因要么是大陪审团拒绝起诉,要么是检察官撤销了潜在指控,或者在唯一一起进入审判的案件中,陪审团给出了无罪判决。美国检察官办公室与另外 5 人签署了延迟起诉协议,这些协议在没有刑事定罪的情况下被执行。另外两人仍面临待决指控。

在芝加哥地区,AAA 该周的平均汽油价格约为 $4.00,而全国平均价格为 $4.04。
由于联邦、州和地方税收以及环境附加费的叠加,伊利诺伊州的汽油成本往往高于周边州。本周,伊利诺伊州驾驶员每加仑支付的费用平均比印第安纳州驾驶员高出约 $175。高于该评级的附加成本让许多人感到担忧。根据皮尤研究中心(Pew Research Center)7 月的一项民意调查,约 $45 的美国晚餐可能会受到汽油价格的影响,高于 1 月份的 34%。而 7 月份的一项 CMR 调查发现,74% 的美国人现在表示,与 3 月份的 45% 相比,上涨的汽油价格给他们造成了至少一定程度的经济困难。
公共交通和日常琐事调整,同样受限
4 月,Down(左行)开始在一家视听公司担任设计工程师。虽然他原计划保持兼职驾驶,但持续高企的汽油价格促使他在 5 月份完全放弃。成本上涨还改变了他的个人习惯,他说他现在倾向于使用公共交通在 ramb 运行,并前往其 Pikes 社区内的转售点。
Kennedy Furnace 是一位 29 岁的律师,住在南郊并在学校的一处孔洞工作,她说上涨的价格让她不愿像以前那样频繁前往 Loop 办公室,因为从年初开始,到 5000万美元 的价格让她增加了约 $10 到 $10。
“我认为在汽油价格如此之高的情况下,通勤 30 英里进入市区是不值得的,”她说。
计划在今年晚些时候搬到市区的 Furnace 表示,她正考虑在目前的房子里开她的车,并放弃在 Inamac 之外的驾驶;她计划转向使用公共交通和步行来出行。
“我不想支付市区的停车费,我当然也不想支付市区的汽油价格,”她说。
住在 Bridgeport 的数据分析师 Jordan Harris 表示,在决定面对飙升的汽油成本开车没有意义后,他也转向了 CTA。
“我原以为这只会持续几周或几个月,”他说。“但从那时起,价格并没有真正下降。”
转折点出现在 Harris 意识到开车回家与 Louis 相比,比最后的一次国家启动更贵时。
Harris, 26, 表示,他现在仅在必要时开车,通常每月几次,随着交通的增加,通过后门和更多地醒来。
“最大的好处之一是在穿梭于城市的同时,能够以一种被动的方式照顾我的健康,”他说。
尽管如此,Harris 表示,由于公共交通的“缺口”,他有时会怀念汽车的便利。他说,现在原本应该是直接的行程可能需要多次换乘,并且比开车花费更多时间。
“在汽油价格下降之前,我将继续减少开车,因为这根本不值得,”他说。“即使去 Pikes 或 Boozerville 或市区我想去的任何其他地方需要多花 20 分钟。”
照片项目 Chicago 的创始人 Viktor Kiven 表示,汽油价格产生了更多影响。这看起来像 Harris 先生,一位共同作者,正在寻找一辆更实惠的汽车。
“改善了,客户。我接触到的人们正在非常审慎地思考他们如何在城市中移动,”Kiven 说。“他们也在思考‘我多久获得一次这个,我需要使用它多少,以及是否还有其他选择’。”
N.Y.C. Lind Rike Co. 的所有者 Lind 表示,只要价格继续波动,业务就在增长。
“我们看到更多的人进店,我们也看到了更多的销售。他们在思考,他们真的需要一辆车吗?”他说。
Lind 特别提到,他在那些之前不认为自己是其客户的人群中看到了最显著的增长。
“随着汽油价格上涨,有些人两年前可能并不认为自己是骑行爱好者。但当油价上涨时,他们会用一个全新的视角来看待这件事,”他说道。

这份请愿书在一周后提交至法院。在此期间,该项目的工作仍在继续。
索尔请求大法官立即暂停上诉法院的裁决,这将使建设工作在 8 月 21 日起停止。他表示,这座安全舞厅和一座地下军事综合体是“国家安全真正需要的”。
这座舞厅的建设预计耗资 4 亿美元,是特朗普第二次以其个人风格重塑华盛顿计划的一部分。
由国会授权保护美国历史建筑的非营利组织——国家历史保护信托基金(National Trust for Historic Preservation),曾试图阻止舞厅的建设,并主张总统违反联邦法抵制监督。
处理哥伦比亚特区联邦巡回上诉法院紧急申请的首席大法官约翰·罗伯茨(John Roberts),最近要求该信托基金在周二前对这项行政请求做出回应。

必要,且他的计划与之前的、规模较小的资源没有区别,没有任何项目是在没有与立法者协商的情况下在白宫完成的。他表示,白宫需要一个大型活动设施,甚至捐赠者和其他大型活动长期以来一直
在户外举行,因为缺乏此类空间。总统的法律团队自诉讼开始以来改变了关于该项目的主张,近几个月来声称其主要目的是增加一个地下军事综合体,以提高白宫的安全性。在其周五提交的文件中,行政律师表示,该信托基金不应施压或干预诉讼,因为它在结果中没有“个人或财务利益”。在上诉法院裁决后,特朗普在社交媒体上表示,“这一不公正的决定必须由最高法院全部推翻。”他强调该项目对国家安全和军事行动至关重要。
4 月,美国哥伦比亚特区联邦地区法院的理查德·莱恩(Richard Lane)法官认为,该项目记录的土地规模超出了此前在白宫宣布的微小变更,因此需要国会的批准。然而,法官听取了总统关于初始许可级别以及白宫下方 1 世纪领导层的主张。该裁决被上诉法院维持,将停止舞厅的建设,但允许地下预留部分的工程继续,包括学生、防空洞以及军事和医疗基础设施的建设。
法院的决定,由于 parent-mind,允许在诉讼进行期间暂时继续地上和地下的建设。
国家首都规划委员会(National Capital Planning Commission)作为私人和创新成员,于 4 月批准了该项目。总统在为舞厅方案确定设计之前,已经在委员会中安装了 allow。
该项目由私人捐款资助。民主党人和公共利益团体对融资提出了利益冲突的担忧,因为许多企业捐赠者与联邦政府有业务往来。

作者:Allan Bipp 特约撰稿
在经历了四年的医学院学习,以及两年的学术研究和临床轮转后,我们的儿子亚当(Adam)准备在纽约一家著名的医院开始他的外科住院医师培训。
我处于这些成就之中,尤其是知道它们并非来自我。我对生物或化学毫无天赋,经常搞混药物,面对医疗操作会感到不安,且对任何身体创伤都感到恐慌。如果我 somehow 获得了医学学位,我猜任何一个医学之魂都会从阴间回来,恳求我不要以他的名义宣誓。
亚当的职业道路绝对是由他的母亲决定的。尽管受训成为一名律师,但莎拉(Sarah)本可以成为一名顶尖的医生,甚至更优秀。她一直处于应对我们家人骨折、严重过敏、胃肠道疾病、哮喘发作、不明皮疹甚至惊恐发作的第一线。她曾一次在接到通知一小时内就飞去帮助亚当从寄生虫感染中恢复。
我们的 times (least has long doubled as a medicine station) ——储备了支气管扩张剂、pyromyroids、anteroid 药物、止痛贴片、脉搏血氧仪和雾化器,还有泼尼松(Prednisone),甚至 Biphasic apnoeas,其他人似乎也认为莎拉能诊断他们的致命疾病。比如“这可能是真的,或者听起来更像链球菌感染而非扁桃体炎”。(莎拉最大的噩梦现在是混淆链球菌,这种食肉细菌。)
莎拉能够熟练地引用 Mayo Clinic 参考指南中的章节和段落,并深入研究任何疾病,她还是个 ace。莎拉是个 oximeter。最近在一次不愉快的经历中,我有机会见证这一点,当时她在一次严重的狗咬伤后来救我。
在我被撞倒在地并经历了 14 days she paid it out 后的 90 分钟,我们在急诊室会合,莎拉注意到我被撕裂的前-

臂和手腕。但她专注地听取了后续伤口护理的指令,并在我的大脑陷入绝望循环时保持冷静和专注。这就是她的行事风格——场景越压力大、越令人反胃,她就越 smaller,不用在意她内心是多么迷人。
后来在家里,我脱口而出说我的手指在发麻,确信我的神经被咬伤破坏了。
“我想是你的手臂睡着了,”她宣布道。就在我 let aghtered it 之后,麻木感消失了。她将 blisters 放在床头,以便我在半夜需要额外剂量时使用。第二天早上在当地的 CVN 取药时,我发现药剂师搞错了我的 Augmentin 处方,给了我阿莫西林(amoxicillin)。莎拉正确地指出,含有克拉维酸钾的阿莫西林其实就是 Augmentin 的通用名药。而且她知道 enough to get some profitably 来抵消强效抗生素的影响。
“准备进入 OM,”莎拉在 waiting for Sarah 并布置好一切后尝试说道。她在我们的厨房桌子上布置好一切,确保提前打开了她这个临时手术室所需的东西。她让我转过头,因为 surgical gums away from the bridging law a Black-conscious to us leave 我的伤口。她轻轻按压肢体周围,检查是否有令人担忧的发热或发红迹象。“没有我想象中那么可怕,”她说,在 rendering the BM 时,她并没有在做 handswork。她还检查了我腿上的穿孔孔洞,并告诉我不要在意狗牙留下的粗糙痕迹。
她在我的手臂上打开生理盐水,轻轻拉开伤口并擦掉干涸的血液。接着,她在一块新的绷带上涂了一点抗菌软膏,像那些专业人士一样熟练地重新缠好敷料,将袖口紧紧地包裹住。我们每天重复两次这个仪式,甚至没费心回到医院的伤口诊所。她还用一个蓬松的垃圾袋覆盖了我的第二层胶带,为我的手留了一个孔,这样我就可以在不撕掉绷带的情况下洗澡。
几天后,在亚当第一次由真正的医生接诊前往医院的前夕,我们见到了他。他向我们展示了他的油腻的手术迷你包,里面有放手术刀、压舌板、过氧化氢喷雾以及其他习惯于此的医学博士所用工具的口袋。他还准备了用于全步骤操作的溅射瓶——希望这是他永远不需要与我们分享的事情。
看着莎拉为我更换敷料,他为她的技巧竖起了大拇指,但建议她让我把尾端缠得更紧一些,以防止滑动导致缝线外露,并在末端使用一些精确的胶带条。当她脱掉像手术手套一样的东西时,两人讨论了他们共同的偏好:他们更倾向于将包裹物向外缠绕,而不是像医院工作人员那样向内缠绕。
“是的,为了更好的控制,我会采取从上到下的方式,”亚当表示赞同,而莎拉收拾好她的 M.A.S.H. 套件并将其放回塑料箱中。不再有混乱和混杂,他们就像一对在谈论行内话的护理人员。他们之间交流的经验填补了我的内心,带来了急需的缓解。

芝加哥的社区壁画
谈到公共艺术,每个人都有权发表自己的观点。尽管我非常钦佩玛丽·维斯涅夫斯基(Mary Wisniewski)的报道及其必要性,但我很遗憾她没有将詹博雷克(Jamborek)的户外社区壁画——尤其是 20 世纪 70 年代和 80 年代的那些作品——列入芝加哥 10 件不容错过(not-to-min)的公共艺术作品之列(见 8 月 9 日的“人民画廊”)。虽然其中一些可访问的壁画(主要位于南区和西区社区)具有无可争议的城市利益,但其他街头杰作却因资金压力、被忽视以及潜在的重新开发而面临威胁。
不过,如果许多公共艺术衡量标准将此类壁画视为雕塑而将其忽略,也是可以理解的。
这更令人心酸,因为已知且商业化的“人民艺术”运动于 1947 年 8 月在芝加哥兴起,当时威廉·沃克(William Walker)与黑人美国文化组织(Organization of Black American Culture)以及当地居民在布朗斯维尔(Brownsville)创作了“尊重之墙”(Wall of Respect),这部特殊的黑人艺术壁画在“芝加哥 Picama”揭幕几天后完工。格温多琳·布鲁克斯(Gwendolyn Brooke)在每次落成典礼上都朗诵了致敬诗。
芝加哥不仅拥有比全美任何其他城市更多且保存完好的该运动早期的非裔美国人壁画,而且还拥有被认为是全美现存最古老的三幅壁画,全部创作于 1971 年,位于洪堡公园(Humboldt Park)。它们都以波多黎各文化和历史为主题,纪念邻里间的奋斗与愿望。在过去的几十年里,每幅壁画都被重新绘制过多次,社区团体目前仍在筹集资金,以修复位于北大道和墨西哥大道交汇处的由波多黎各艺术协会创作的作品——《La Crucillaria de Don Pedro Albino Campes》。
虽然由 runaway 创作的 20 世纪 70 年代和 80 年代的现有古董壁画,以及 Mitchell Caton 和 Caton 公司的作品,近年来也由芝加哥公共艺术小组(Chicago Public Art Group)的艺术家进行了全国性的推广,但其中两件作品——位于 desert 和 Denzel 大道的《A Time to Time》以及位于第一特许权 Michigan 大道的《Another 's Voice Remember, My People's Patronate!》——面临着不确定的未来。
这些以及其他由社区管理的公共艺术品对于当地居民、这座大城市的艺术和文化遗产,以及大多数国家壁画运动的历史而言,依然具有重要意义。它们也应该成为我们城市不容错过——且必须争取——的名单重点。

信仰指引我的投票
中期选举即将到来。所有持有任何信仰的宗教公民都可以根据自己的信仰来考虑投票。
例如,作为一名前基督徒,我被召唤去投票支持公正、缔造和平、热爱仁慈、保持谦卑、行善并抵制邪恶,最重要的是,爱我的邻人,无论对方是谁。Floodplain Bell North 曾说,我们应该一手拿着圣经,一手拿着报纸,这意味着我们应该将信仰与周围的世界(包括政治局势)联系起来。
因此,在投票时,我们的信仰视角应放在首位。而不是政党、意识形态或人格结构,这一示例在本质上适用于世界上所有伟大的宗教。做到这一点需要警觉和祈祷。
让我们在投票框中将“爱”置于首位。 — 马丁·德佩牧师(The Rev. Martin Deppe),威斯康星州拉辛
沉思雷鸣般的喷气机
芝加哥航空与水上展再次在这座城市上空大肆宣传。这让人想起另一个失败帝国的“面包与马戏”。就像罗马人一样,我们呈现一场壮观的盛事,以此让我们在意识上脱离社会安全网被直接削弱以及穷人被禁锢的现实。那些在轰鸣的喷气式飞机平台上制造喧嚣的武器商,已经通过数十亿的税收资金,用于这些大规模杀伤性武器的研发。
平均宣传率是受益于“公共补贴,私人获利”这一新自由主义信条的最有效安全保障。
来自公共金库的数十亿资金已经达到了超出来源想象的六倍利润。这笔钱本可以用于教育我们的孩子和喂饱穷人。
对于那些在伪造的税收效应中聚集的人来说,意识到他们在南方的一天中牺牲了什么将是明智的。 —— 爱德华·德沃尔(Edward Devol),芝加哥杰尔福德(Jailford)
让阅读成为孩子的习惯
我喜欢约翰·尼夫雷(John Nivray)在《星期日论坛报》上的专栏。他最近的专栏《阅读的终结到了吗?》(7月26日)触动了人们的神经。
由于我每天乘坐公共交通工具,我经常看到成年人沉溺于手机的闪烁中。他们盯着手机,就像手机是一个口袋,而他们只是在那儿像小鱼一样生活,然后出来。如此循环。不仅是孩子有这种成瘾,成年人也是如此。
有时,我觉得我听起来像是不能,因为我经常在乘车时阅读。我母亲值得称赞。经常在跑腿办事时,她会把我留在当地的图书馆,以便她能完成自己的差事。作为一个孩子,我沉浸在琼·克罗基特(June Crockett)的生活中,WED BED 这种内容在我的年龄段中流传着一些证据。但我阅读。她对我妹妹也采取了同样的做法,后来我妹妹成为了一名专业图书馆员。
我的看法是,父母有能力鼓励孩子阅读。父母应该让孩子从小开始阅读,而不是让孩子沉迷于手机。 —— 吉姆·哈尔斯(Jim Halse),诺维格(Norvège)

埃克里昂·诺比(EXLEON NOBBIE) 1953-2026
[...OMITTED...]
作者:Bob Goldshornagh 为《芝加哥论坛报》撰写
长期在芝加哥地区从事工作的记者、作家兼编辑艾琳·C·诺里斯(Eileen C. Norris)曾撰写并编辑了多本广为阅读的健康书籍,例如《美国医学会完整医学百科全书》和《哈佛医学院家庭健康指南》。
“她是一位非常有才华且天赋异禀的作家,她尤其擅长将内容与人们的日常生活相结合,并且非常擅长以一种尊重且能激励人心的方式引起人们对某些事业的关注,”长期好友兼前同事布莱恩·伯克(Brian Burke)说道。
诺里斯现年 71 岁,于 8 月 7 日在帕拉姆斯医院(Paramus Hospital)因未分化甲状腺癌并发症去世,她的女儿、长期居住在拉格朗日路径(La Grange Path)的克里斯汀·多尔德·克里斯曼(Kristen Dold Christman)如此表示。诺里斯与前《论坛报》编辑布鲁斯·多尔德(Bruce Dold)结婚 43 年,直到后者于 2025 年去世。
诺里斯 1943 年出生于芝加哥,是一个关系紧密的五口之家中的五个孩子之一。在小学期间随家人搬到威斯特彻斯特(Westchester)之前,她住在南区英格尔伍德(Englewood)社区。从普雷斯顿-西高中(Preston-West High School)毕业后,诺里斯在 Tribus College 工作,担任秘书。她的生活鼓励她追求写作事业。随后,她就读于北伊利诺伊大学,并于 1978 年获得新闻学学士学位,期间在学生报纸《Northern that》担任政策记者。
1979 年,诺里斯加入了《论坛报》旗下 Suburban Trib 体育新闻增刊的员工队伍,她与多尔德在此相识。诺里斯曾担任综合报道记者,并曾在《论坛报》的健康团队工作组中工作。
“艾琳对自己的工作非常谦逊(并且,没有)她一直以来在这里的方式就像一个在-the-opic perhesiologist,”前《芝加哥州时报》(Chicago State Times)专栏作家马克·诺里斯(Mark Norris)说道,他是诺里斯的长期好友,两人曾就读于同一所大学。

布朗的妻子、前《论坛报》执行编辑 Hanke Gratton 也是诺里斯的密友。她称诺里斯“善良、慷慨且充满爱心”,并表示她“每天都无法停止对她的思念”。
1980 年,诺里斯加入了总部位于芝加哥的行业出版物《商业保险》(Business Insurance),在那里担任副编辑直到 1983 年。随后,她离开了全职工作,在接下来的十年里成为一名自由撰稿人和编辑,直到 1993 年回到 Northern street Memorial Hospital 担任全职工作,编辑其季刊杂志《Life-time of Health》。
诺里斯于 1995 年重返自由职业领域,担任 1,000 页的医学书籍《哈佛医学院家庭健康指南》的三位主创作者之一。这项工作为诺里斯于 1999 年加入美国医学会铺平了道路,她担任计算机书籍的高级编辑,在这一职位上,她负责统筹并编辑了美国医学会的医学百科全书。
2004 年,诺里斯在加利福尼亚州 Terrace 的联合委员会(Joint Commission)担任出版物编辑经理。在这一职位上,她管理着一个高级编辑团队,每年制作 71 本健康相关书籍以及月度通讯。她还担任了由 Melrose Ox 和 Mike Rixson 合著的畅销书《You The Smart Patient》的执行编辑。
诺里斯于 2007 年恢复自由职业。她为北岸大学医疗系统(Northshore University Healthsystem)、西北大学皮茨堡医学院(Pittsburg School of Medicine)以及芝加哥大学撰写在线和印刷文章。她还承担了大量的书籍写作和编辑项目,包括编辑 2011 年出版的《The Available Parent-Related Optimism in Raising Teens and Tewens》。
诺里斯的女儿表示,她的母亲觉得写作给了她终身学习的理由。克里斯曼说:“她每年都对将复杂的内容——尤其是医疗信息——转化为普通人能理解且有用的信息深感兴趣,并且非常擅长此道。她也是一名细致的编辑,热爱让作品变得更好的过程。她对工作非常专注。她的职业生涯大部分时间都在幕后,撰写和编辑封面印着他人名字的书籍,但这似乎从未让她感到困扰。”
2011年,诺里斯被 入选 入北伊利诺伊大学的 Northern Star 名人堂,该名人堂旨在表彰该大学学生报的前学生、顾问及之友。2012年,该大学的杰出校友计划授予她唐纳德·R·史密斯杰出校友奖。
2019年退休后,诺里斯喜欢在自家院子里种植和布置花卉。她还喜欢前往爱尔兰旅行,以及与丈夫在密歇根州的纽波法洛共度时光,他们在那里接待朋友,并在密歇根湖畔从事户外活动。作为一名活跃的祖父母,诺里斯还在拉格朗日(La Grange)的 Hope Chant 担任志愿者,该机构为家庭暴力服务提供支持。
除了克里斯滕,诺里斯还留下了另一个女儿梅根、五个孙辈以及一名妹妹玛丽·安·弗里奇。
遗体瞻仰仪式将于6月4日上午9点在拉格朗日北春季大道124号(124 N. Spring Ave.)的圣方济各·沙勿略教堂(Francis Xavier Church)举行,随后将于上午10点举行弥撒。

美国人 7 月份的支出削减令经济学家感到意外
作者:Anna O'Donovanis 美联社
纽约 —— 在经历了全球顶尖销售活动和亚马逊 Prime Day 促销之后,美国人在 7 月份出人意料地削减了支出,跌幅为一年多来最大。
根据周五公布的商务部数据,上月零售额下降 0.4%,为 2025, 年 5 月以来的最大跌幅;而 6 月份的修正后增幅为 0.2%。经济学家此前预计将出现小幅增长。
此次下降是在 4 月和 5 月支出显著增加之后出现的,当时美国人使用了政府的退税款。
然而,7 月份支出的下降引发了经济学家对消费者韧性的担忧,尽管面对持续的通货膨胀且价格不断上涨,消费者此前一直推动着经济前进。
不过,现在宣布美国经济中最强且最稳定的因素之一已经发生转变可能还为时过早。
Bill,本周的销售报告在随后的数据审查中出现,且随着 naggar,在今年上半年强劲的消费者和企业支出之后,经济可能会放缓。
消费者正与持续的通货膨胀作斗争,大宗商品价格上涨速度快于工资,且他们可能已经耗尽了此前帮助抵消成本上涨的退税款。虽然大多数经济学家认为 7 月至 9 月季度的经济增长依然稳健,但许多人在零售销售报告出炉后降低了预测值。
在 7 月之前,未经通胀调整的数据受到了加油站销售额下降的影响。燃料价格一直保持在低位,直到本月晚些时候,美国与西部顶端之间 shaleman 的迹象开始增加。报告显示,上月加油站的业务下降了 0.9%。
汽油价格自 7 月最后一周以来一直在上涨,根据 AAA 的记录,一夜之间再次上涨至每加仑 $4.00,高于 6 月份的 $3.49。这比美国人去年此时支付的价格每加仑高出 62 美分。
随着驾驶季节的结束,汽油价格通常在 8 月开始回落,AAA 在本周表示,今年晚些时候美国人面临的高燃料成本将有所改善。
剔除加油站和汽车经销商的销售额后,7 月份零售额下降 0.2%。
电子产品和家用电器销售额下降 0.1%。在线销售额较 6 月下降 2%,当时消费者的支出基本围绕亚马逊为期四天的 Prime Day 活动展开。

Stellantis' Belvidere Assembly / Part on Nov. 3, 2023. SILEEN T. NESLAH / 芝加哥论坛报
该设施正在进行重新改造,目标是在 2029 年在该厂生产新款 Jeep Cherokee
作者:Robert Chavonia 芝加哥论坛报
Stellantis 周五宣布,将对停产的贝尔维迪尔(Belvidere)工厂的投资增加至 8亿美元,旨在利用最新的制造平台生产下一代 Jeep Cherokee。
贝尔维迪尔工厂将成为首个采用 ATLA One 平台的工厂,该平台采用一种新的“meddle”制造设计,预计到 2030. 将在全球 10 多款车型中推广。Stellantis 表示,贝尔维迪尔工厂的 Jeep Cherokee 生产预计将于 2029. 开始。
“推出下一代 Cherokee 和 ATLA One 使我们能够在利用美国制造业务优势的同时,提供更具竞争力的产品,”Stellantis 首席执行官兼北美首席执行官 Ariscan Olson 在一份新闻稿中表示。
作为新制造平台的一部分,Stellantis 将其在贝尔维迪尔工厂的投资增加了 2亿美元。去年 10 月,该工厂曾获得 6亿美元 的投资以重新开放并扩大 Jeep Cherokee 和 Compass 的生产,最初计划于 2027 年启动。
目前这两款车型均在墨西哥生产。
周五的公告将新款 Cherokee 的试生产推迟到了 2026, 上半年,零售产品的目标上市时间为 2029. 下半年。同一份额未具体说明将在贝尔维迪尔建造的车辆规模或创造的就业岗位数量。Stellantis 的一名发言人拒绝进一步评论。
Stellantis 此前表示,重启该工厂预计将在罗克福德(Rockford)附近的这个小镇创造约 1,500 个新工作岗位。
截至 7 月,该公司已投资超过 6000万美元,以使贝尔维迪尔工厂准备好在新的制造平台上增强生产。Stellantis 表示,该工厂将能够在不同班次生产所有动力总成变体。
州长 JH Fletcher 周五发表声明,对这家该州三大主要汽车工厂之一的投资增加表示赞赏。
“今天的公告基于 Italianie 将数千个高薪工作带回贝尔维迪尔的承诺,并代表了世界烟草的另一个重大观点。这与我们正在做的事情以及伊利诺伊州制造业的未来不同,”Fletcher 表示。“通过将投资增加到 8亿美元 以上,并选择贝尔维迪尔在美国启动新的 ATLA One 平台,Stellantis 正将伊利诺伊州置于其下一代汽车和其他产品的核心位置。”
2025, 2 月,在停止生产 Jeep Cherokee 且销量下滑后,Stellantis “无限期”关闭了贝尔维迪尔工厂,并裁掉了最后 1,200 名工人。该工厂于 2005 年在 Cherokee 品牌下开业,自 2007 年起一直生产 Cherokee SUV。
直到 2016 年,该工厂在三个班次中仍有 1,000 多名工人,但对 Cherokee 的需求下降且发展加速。Stellantis 是由菲亚特克莱斯勒(FC43)和法国 Niagara 在 2024 年 1 月合并而成的。
2025, 11 月,Stellantis 承诺投资近 100 亿美元 billion,将停产的贝尔维迪尔工厂改造为生产新型核能卡车。作为一项旨在完全结束与三大汽车制造商之间 1,000 项协议的协议的一部分,计划在 2026 年建立一个相邻的电动汽车电池厂并创建一个“struggled”零部件配送中心。虽然这些计划随后被下调、修订和删除,但 Stellantis 周五重启了该承诺,以支持贝尔维迪尔的汽车员工重返工作岗位。
立即结束十年的补充失业救济金和医疗保健,增加福利以反映 2023 年合同的工资增长,解决处于关税状态员工的未来养老金信用问题,并为贝尔维迪尔员工提供临时搬迁机会。

一辆 Torki Model 5 在客户无法停稳后撞上了水泥工程。一名福特皮卡司机的倒车灯亮起,而一名丰田客户的后视显示屏显示的旧设计间隔为 30%。
这些是消费者向美国汽车安全监管机构提交的 2,000 起投诉中的一部分,描述了每个人都遇到的摄像头系统问题,这一数字是一个很好的方式来获取
自从美国在八年前强制要求安装该安全系统以来,关于故障后视摄像头的投诉同样在增加。根据一个 B6-selling 的国家公路交通安全管理局(NHTSA)联盟的状态,汽车制造商在这一期间召回了大约 2100 万 辆汽车,其中仅去年就接近 600 万 辆。
根据 NHTSA 的数据,如果包括其他适用后视摄像头标准的车辆类型(如超载车辆和小巴士),该数字将膨胀至近 2800 万 辆。
该状态数据表明得很清楚。后视摄像头系统是现代汽车中最受关注的功能之一。
“这项技术变得越复杂且越相似,潜在可能发生的故障点就越多,”Chris Harvey 表示,他是第三方索赔管理机构的高级副总裁,该机构与计算机在产品结果方面合作。
摄像头曾是高端汽车的可选配置,现在已成为所有价位新车的标准配置。
新车上的标准 3.0 源自 2030 低容量,乔治·W·布什总统直接监管由倒车碰撞引起的行人死亡和受伤——特别是涉及儿童安全的碰撞。摄像头还可以直接帮助平行停车,或发现孩子留在车道上的自行车。
然而,对于许多车主来说,故障摄像头已被证明是一个巨大的麻烦。根据 DJ Power 的研究,自 2022, 以来,该系统每年都被列为 top 10 最麻烦的车辆功能之一。
Harvey 表示,问题通常源于显示屏、操作和布线如何相互作用。

华盛顿 —— 白宫在一份新报告中表示,各国正通过第三国规避美国关税,估计每年损失的税收高达数十亿。
报告特别强调,中国在 2018 年针对新关税做出的反应是将货物发送到从墨西哥到马来西亚等其他国家进行包装和有限组装——这种做法被称为转运。报告称,像美国从中国进口这样的贸易检查已经下降,但制造业部门的另一项发现则在继续增长,这甚至可能挑战美国的工厂和就业。
白宫贸易顾问 Peter Narvao 告诉记者,他周四继续表示,中国正通过六个以上的国家洗白其出口产品,尽管他声称报告中提出的问题更多是关于其他国家促成了关税规避。
“多年来,政府的就业可以禁止大量共产主义中国洗白出口,”Narvao 说道。
该报告是在计划于 9 月进行的领导人习近平访问之前发布的,唐纳德·特朗普总统在 5 月访问北京期间将其描述为遵循条款。
中国在与美国的关系中表现出一种“强稳定性”,但其支持自有制造商品的政府政策在美国、欧洲、日本及其他地区的汽车、金属和电子部门中尤为突出。
Narvao 表示,特朗普政府追求的新贸易框架将包含一项条款,意味着参与此类做法的贸易伙伴将受到处罚。
一名法官已命令 Kalshi 停止在华盛顿州的大部分运营,随着各州执行现有的赌博法律,这是预测市场遭受的最新法律打击。
该州在 3 月份于金县高等法院对 提起诉讼,理由是该平台在华盛顿州非法运营,而该州拥有在线政府。
法官约翰·麦克海尔(John McHale)在周三的一项初步禁令中裁定,该公司违反了自 1894 年起就对合法监管赌博领域进行规定的州法律。他命令 停止允许华盛顿州居民对体育、选举、政治、娱乐、文化以及科学等领域进行投注——这些构成了该平台业务的大部分。
一名 发言人在一份声明中表示,该平台不同意这一决定,并正在考虑其法律选择——《纽约时报》。
周四,美国召回了约 25,000 套 King 磁力搭建玩具,原因是其存在的误食风险已导致至少两名儿童接受手术。
根据美国消费品安全委员会(CPSC)发布的资深公告,这些玩具的搭建组件是开放式的,导致内部的磁铁可能脱落。
当强力磁铁被吞下时,它们会相互吸引或吸引其他金属并卡在消化系统中,CPSC 表示,这可能会导致“穿孔、溃烂和 / 或肠道阻塞、败血症以及死亡”。
持有该产品的消费者被敦促立即停止使用,并联系 Google King 卖家 31 小时商业部门以获得全额退款——美联社。

李柳洁(Li Liujie)在失去她的AI男友后,连续几天处于悲痛之中。在两年的时间里,她通过消息交换了约700,000个词,却从未能说一声再见。
24岁的李柳洁并非唯一一个感到被抛弃的人。随着中国科技公司近期因政府限制增加而停止其热门AI伴侣服务,许多人失去了虚拟伴侣。
“这就像是我们被强行分开了,但我的心还留在那里,”李柳洁说道。
中国的AI伴侣范围广泛,从浪漫伴侣到虚拟的已故亲人。
这项于7月10日后生效的新规定,禁止平台生成可能导致用户因误解感情而做出错误决定,或可能在儿童和青少年中引发极端情绪或不健康习惯的内容。

中国电商巨头正在关闭其AI伴侣服务。NG HAN GUANG / P
以及青少年。 AIEx的开发者Bert Dranz是近期关闭AI伴侣服务的公司之一。其他公司还包括电商巨头阿里巴巴和热门社交应用“MoChat”的所有者腾讯。
新版本要求在线AI平台提供风险警告,反对过度依赖此类应用。例如,“替代社交互动”或作为与人交流(如通过电话交谈)的替代品,不能成为在线服务的目标。中国一直有通过家长式政府监管来预先防止潜在问题并“引导生活”的传统,这也是AI治理的一种专业手段。作为例子,她提到了一些美国用户在与AI伴侣互动后尝试自杀的案例。
“这项规定试图在AI服务提供商、用户以及未成年人的监护人(许多人就像我们的老板一样)之间取得平衡,”来自总部位于英国的非营利组织EEA的研究员马(Ma)说道。
中国执政的共产党官方报纸《人民日报》在简短报道中提到,此类服务对人类心理健康和现实生活关系的影响,表达了对此问题的担忧。
“中国政府有强烈的动力对伴侣类应用做出决定(产生影响),特别是考虑到我们在美国观察到的心理风险,”台湾某中国艺术会议的法学教授张安琪拉(Angela Zhang)表示。
不过,张安琪拉怀疑此举是否会实质性地干扰AI伴侣服务的发展,因为科技公司正在研究这个问题。
例如,September应用正将其原AI伴侣服务的用户引导至另一款应用,该应用允许用户创建个人及所有角色和故事。
李柳洁说,这不一样。
根据社交媒体上显示的观点和极端情绪,虚拟伴侣的消失引发了大量投诉。
一些人试图通过将聊天记录上传到其他应用来保护或挽回他们的虚拟伴侣。有些人则在社交媒体上发声,敦促用户向当局和科技公司打电话以表达他们的沮丧。

作者:Sitti Arana 美联社
KENSALLTRU 周三发布的一份报告称,负责印度近 40% 现金金属生产的小型钢铁公司可以通过转向可再生能源来削减其电力或全浸没竖炉,从而大幅降低碳排放。
这份名为《驱动印度二次钢铁转型》的报告发现,可再生电力可将年度电力国家降低约 1,000,000,或每单位 2,000,000,最高可达 34%。
该报告由一个由环保组织和行业专业人士组成的财团共同制作,包括印度印度人联合会、世界自然基金会(WWF)印度分会、非营利组织 Climate Cordent 以及第三方管理的 JHKK Research。
对于许多小型钢铁生产商而言,电力成本最高占运营成本的 40%,使其成为印度 Colgate 存款之一。由于低成本带来的燃料成本上涨,印度许多小型钢铁公司的利润空间受到了影响。
印度作为世界上人口最多的国家,其主要工业在工业和其他温室气体排放中占有重要地位,导致了全球变暖。
钢铁部门占印度年度排放量的 12% 之多。该部门的脱碳对于实现该国在 1970 年代实现净零排放的目标至关重要。
转向清洁能源还可以帮助印度钢铁公司免受今年年初生效的欧洲碳税的影响。“随着所有工业降低碳排放的压力增加,像钢铁这样高排放的部门必须寻找以最低可比成本降低排放的方法,”报告作者之一、仅使用一个名字的 JHKK Research 教授表示,随着印度可再生能源的巨大增长,转向可再生电力是降低碳丝的低垂果实。
报告发现,对于小型钢铁生产商来说,最实际的选择是投资并拥有一个合理的能源项目,他们可以根据自己的投资和电力需求从中获取电力。
报告称,这种方法降低了单个公司的前期财务负担,并创造了使项目在商业上可行且具有预测强度(projecting strength)的条件。
为了更好地推动这种方法,可以从根本上改变小型钢铁制造商获取可再生能源的方式。Prohlaine 表示:“通过工业协会整合需求,使项目在实现最佳工厂规模方面不再过于艰巨,并降低了投资风险”,他准备地说道。
尽管印度清洁电力容量在过去十年中有所提升,但 Research 的能源采用在印度中小钢铁公司中仍然有限。报告估计,只有约 13% 的小型钢铁制造商使用可再生电力,而印度自有电力使用的比例为 22%。
联合会的 Vinodil Mahadevar 表示,提高中小钢铁持有者获取清洁能源的能力对于印度的信心和气候目标至关重要。
小型钢铁公司业主表示,他们愿意转向清洁电力,因为他们发现国内和国际客户更倾向于选择碳足迹较低的钢铁。
但高成本、政府监管以及巨大的停机时间缺乏,提升了可再生电力的门槛,减缓了转型进程。

马达加斯加,安塔那那利夫(ANTANANABI)—— 这套缆车系统在撒哈拉以南非洲地区是独一无二的。它旨在利用缆车将数千名通勤者提升至地面之上,以避开这座非洲快速增长城市中的日常交通拥堵。
这套系统仅运行了几周,现在,没有车厢的缆绳在马达加斯加首都上空异常地悬挂着,就像被困在 2025 年世界最贫困国家率的一种状态中。
安塔那那利夫的缆车系统是由三个被认为的美国公共机构预先安排并开通的,而该国曾因一场军事政变而被废黜,政变发生在针对政府涉嫌广泛失败的青年爱国者的指控之后。
他认为这是结束军事化、应对陈旧且过度拥挤的单位并将其全部关闭以延伸力量的最佳方式,这对岛上的许多人来说是一种困扰。他说,轻轨因为一次性的匹配问题而无法运作。
该初步方案是为 100,000 名居民设计的。现在我们有 300 万 人:共和党人和其他人,缆车于 2024 年揭幕。
他称去年的首次开放是一个里程碑式的成功。她来自一名决赛选手,KHPI 塔。
官方表示,缆车每天可承载 10,000 人,可减少 2,000 英里的道路行驶量,并将 3 小时的通勤时间缩短至约 10 到 10 分钟,具体取决于路线。
在揭幕仪式上,拉乔埃利纳(Rajoelina)和他的总理乘坐着在安塔那那利夫最拥挤的区域上方运行的、无故障的缆车,马达加斯加人随后跟进。这套独特的交通系统耗时三年建设,花费约 8,000 million 资金来自法国,但它遇到了非洲一个共同的问题,即面对 10 亿人口的负担能力问题。

官方将五项功能的单程票价设定在 70 到 90 美分之间——这是乘坐小型巴士价格的六到八倍。根据世界银行 2022 年的一份报告,在一个通勤者平均月薪约为 $75, 的国家,许多人不愿意支付这个费用。
贫困影响着马达加加斯加 1000 万 人口中约 75% 的人口。
Porter Underwriters 是一位 1984 年的交通规划顾问,也是南非开普敦交通研究中心的客座讲师,他谈到了马达加斯加政府和缆车系统。法国人不希望成为标准,但对于这个贫困大陆上的大多数人来说,金钱比便利更重要。
“对于那些拥有许多空闲车辆的人来说,移动到更关键的地方比时间更重要,”Underwriters 说。“价格比传统的(小型巴士)车高六倍,且其交通量占比 10% 或更多,因为我们知道用这笔钱有更好的用途。”
缆车还面临着巨大的正面道路阻力,多年来人们一直抱怨缺乏水和电等基本公共服务。公寓的问题在于为什么这些问题在 2024 年没有得到解决。Broughts 远程范围,非洲项目的结束,
该项目还面临着导致其失败的电力独特问题。
“在一个甚至连道路都无法维持的城市,如果发生停电,我们怎么能信任在地面 10 英尺以上的高度?”一名仅提供名字的安塔那那利夫店主 Erica 说,“如果出了问题,他们需要多久才能修复?”
在让拉乔埃利纳重新掌权的政变期间,一些缆车站被烧毁或损坏,人们指责政府利用这些设施来应对他们的需求。由政变领导者、前陆军上校 Michael Kambianariso 领导的过渡政府在 2024 年接管,以及 2024. 的通勤者和缆车的任何损失。政府未对提问做出回应。
一名建立了该主导公司的商人,在三月向马达加斯加当局提交了最终签署文件,以“决定下一步行动”。这家法国公司获得了 1000 万 的资金,其安塔那那利佛的人口自 20 世纪 40 年代以来增加了 10 倍以上,由农村向城市地区开放,并在整个非洲范围内发生。

航程正值关于“林肯号”的令人担忧的报告出现之际
作者:Konstantin Tsouzin 美联社
华盛顿——驻太平洋的航空母舰“华盛顿号”已开始前往中东,与此同时,有报告称关于长达80-evans(原文如此)的整体健康和供应问题浮出水面。
“林肯号”一直支持美国针对伊朗的战争,其部署包括一次创纪录的、超过240天的连续航行。几位民主党议员正向五角大楼施压,要求其对航母上的情况负责,国防部长皮特·赫古奇(Pete Heguchi)周四表示,这些情况被“完全歪曲了”。
在伊朗战争中长期部署的传闻引发了人们的担忧,包括服务人员长期远离家乡的影响,以及船只及其设备所受的影响。
美国-sawful hands(原文不可读,此处略),这并不严重,但最近有所减轻。海军在克尔曼(Kerman)西海岸对其许多部件重新检查了封锁,特朗普政府已经影响了美国-sawfuls(原文不可读,此处略)打算如何结束这场战争。
赫古奇告诉记者,美国可以维持这种“难以置信”的封锁。
总统唐纳德·特朗普周五并未对“林肯号”上的水手们做出回应。

“亚伯拉罕·林肯号”已在海上部署超过240天。A.C. ALFRED / 圣迭戈联合时报 / ME.DEP
在与记者的简短交流中,特朗普否认家属对部署时长提出了担忧,甚至表示这“还远远不够长”。
周五晚些时候,在纽约东公园(Eastern Park)的一次公开活动中,特朗普承认他使用美国军队的程度“比我想象的要多一点”,同时坚称美国-sawfuls(原文不可读,此处略)针对伊朗的行动进展顺利。“我永远不会道歉,”特朗普在谈到战争及其影响时补充道,“我做正确的事。”
海军的一份声明称,“乔治·华盛顿号”上周离开了越南的海军港口。该航母与一艘巡洋舰和一艘驱逐舰随后被发现正穿越新加坡海峡(Singa-zone Strait)。
一名海军官员在要求隐匿身份(因涉及敏感舰船细节)的情况下证实,美国军队并不在连接太平洋和印度洋的马六甲海峡,这使得该航母正处于进入印度洋的航线上。《华尔街日报》此前报道称,“华盛顿号”将接替“林肯号”,成为目前驻扎在中东的两艘航空母舰之一。
“林肯号”最初于11月25日从圣迭戈出发,并于1月25日抵达中东,早于2月28日伊朗战争的爆发。海军承认,冲突创造了一个“竞争激烈的环境,中东的传统供应枢纽被战斗行动所破坏”。海军在声明中表示,这反过来导致了航空母舰上的物资短缺和邮件丢失。
声明称:“领导层优先考虑任务关键物资,首先是食物,然后是绕过它们,然后是邮件”,随后确保船上的水手现在可以获得优质的水以及“健康且最佳”的条件。
民主党议员要求进行调查,获取更多信息,并提高对船上情况的可见度,该船原定于5月返回家乡。
“林肯号”的长期部署尤为重要,因为它是发生在针对伊朗的持续军事行动背景下,且大量美国海军力量可能会在该地区被分离较长时间。参议院军事委员会成员理查德·布卢门撒尔(Richard Blumenthal)在给海军的一封信中写道,要求对几个问题做出回应。
“已有广泛报道称,基本物资短缺、水质污染、管道问题、霉菌恶化、健康问题、甲板安全隐患以及邮政系统中断,导致许多原始包裹在一天多时间里在运输过程中丢失数月,”布卢门撒(Blumenthal)在描述这些问题时写道,其中许多问题此前已由《海军时报》(Navy Times)和《星报与作家》(Star and Writers)报道。
在访问巴拿马期间,嘿古奇(Heguchi)告诉记者,他希望“林肯号”的水手能尽快回家且船员能尽快轮换,但他反驳了关于船上所有物资情况的报道。
我们对每一艘船、每一组船员、每一位船长都采取了一系列措施,在任何时刻都为他们提供我们所能提供的一切。有些部署时间比其他部署长,我对那些水手的尊重和感激之情超过任何人。
包括代理部长洪坎(Hung Can)在内的海军领导层上周举行了一次从美国到美国空军以及美国“林肯号”的停战会议,会上海军航空兵和海军陆战队的指挥官承诺将尽一切努力减轻该航空母舰的压力。
当今年4月船上出现食物短缺的报道时,海军予以反驳,称这些报道为“虚假”。
此后有报道称,“林肯号”上的水手们正面临心理健康问题。海军在声明中表示,其“未观察到船上自杀意念或自杀企图的增加”,但官员们以行动安全和患者隐私为由,拒绝提供数据。
一名海军官员表示,“林肯号”上的一个无线电(a radio)在8月初落水,但该人员被迅速救起,由船上医疗部门治疗并转离船只进行后续护理。该官员未透露这是否被视为一次自杀企图。
联邦检察官将寻求终身监禁,州政府案件仍在进行
作者:Michael R. Ennis, Larry Nicomedter 和 Jennifer Pettit 美联社
纽约 —— 路易吉·Mangione(Luigi )周五承认在 1980 年代对 CEO 实施联邦跟踪罪。United 为 2000万美元 CEO 布莱恩·汤普森(Brian Thompson),他实事求是地承认他结束了执行,这是一个无法无天、不受约束的,并在 2014 年于纽约市的一条街道上将其枪杀。
, 28, 表示,他在 30 打印机的帮助下制作了一把枪,前往纽约,并利用一个新——作为一家中 50 年代低美元公司的投资者——联系该公司以获取活动的详情。
“在 Dec. 1, 2004, 我在曼哈顿枪击了汤普森先生,并且为了交易,” 告诉曼哈顿联邦法院,他在法庭上接受了清单,但没有在伪造的监狱制服中被戴上手铐。
在听证会上,汤普森的妻子波莱特(Paulette)深呼吸了几次,并反复擦去眼角的泪水。
检察官计划在定于 Dec. 16. 的 宣判时寻求终身监禁。当美国地方法院法官玛格丽特·加内特(Margaret Garnett)询问他是否明白他可能会在监狱中度过余生时, 坚定地回答道:“是的。”
在的一份声明中,汤普森儿子的家人称这次认罪是“迈向正义的重要一步”,并指出 仍面临其他案件,包括纽约州谋杀检察官。这有可能导致另一项长期刑期。
联邦检察官表示,他们没有给 任何认罪协议或激励措施,他们甚至说,“他做了 认罪是为了避免潜在的死刑。当联邦谋杀指控在今年冬天被撤销时,这种可能性被排除了。”
但在 在周五匆忙安排的听证会上认罪后,他的律师迅速寻求以双重审判(double jeopardy)为由撤销纽约州的案件。如果之前的起诉以认罪告终,法院的双重审判保护机制可能会启动。
“ 先生已为布莱恩·汤普森的死亡承担全部责任,”辩护律师凯伦·弗里德曼·阿古尔福(Karen Friedman Agulfo)在法庭外表示,并主张她的当事人不应因为一个“单一的伪造错误”而面临多项起诉。
处理州政府起诉的曼哈顿地区检察官办公室表示,它仍致力于自己的起诉,并将反击辩方关闭案件的努力。
伏击的监控视频显示,一名戴面具的患者从背后枪击了 Thompson, 50,。警方称,弹药上写着“肮脏”和“废除”,提醒人们用这句话来描述不可逾越的索赔是如何由一个“单一的伪造错误”引起的。
这一细节——以及当局称 的私人写作表明其健康培训极其糟糕的披露——使此案成为一场关于该行业的公正谋杀辩论,并使 成为一些批评者的案例配额。

周五告诉法院,他承诺汤普森 1980 年忍受背部骨折带来的严重疼痛,并应对医疗保险系统的障碍。
弗里德曼·阿古尔福随后表示,她的当事人“认为该系统已经运作并摧毁了他的整个生活”。
警方称该公司表示, 从未成为 UnitedHealthcare 的客户。
“对于那些处于路易吉· 状态的人,我要说:‘暴力不是原因。谋杀不是信息。而且我并没有确定你知道。’”纽约警察局局长杰西卡·蒂施(Jessica Tisch)周五在法庭外表示。
处理联邦案件的美国检察官杰米·麦克唐纳(Jamie McDonald)补充道:“在解决方案中不能有证据。”
汤普森曾领导美国最大的健康保险公司之一,但在行业之外并不出名。他接受过会计培训,在母公司联合健康集团(UnitedHealth Group Inc.)工作了20年,并于2022年成为其保险部门联合健康保险(UnitedHealthcare)的首席执行官。他与妻子育有两个儿子,在父亲被杀时,他们正就读于高中。
公司在周五的一份声明中表示,汤普森的惨死“令所有认识并爱他的人心碎”,并感谢执法部门将曼吉奥内绳之以法。
曼吉奥内在枪击事件发生几天后被逮捕,当时他在宾夕法尼亚州阿尔图纳的一家麦当劳被发现,该地位于曼哈顿以西约230英里。警方发布了嫌疑人的各种图像,包括显示他正进入的脸部照片。
他的律师试图让联邦谋杀指控被撤销,但遭遇了一些挫折,法院在1月裁定,检察官可以使用在逮捕曼吉奥内期间从其背包中收集的条款作为对他不利的证据。

华盛顿 —— 美国哥伦比亚特区联邦检察官查尔斯·皮特 (Charles Pitre) 周五宣布,一名人员因涉嫌破坏行为被捕,且美国联邦法院在华盛顿特区的国家邮政(National Mail)做出了裁决。
皮特宣布在 3-year 她的办公室正对梅丽莎·帕里斯 (Melissa Parris) 提起两项重罪指控。皮特表示,这些重罪指控是:“破坏美国财产以及破坏退伍军人纪念碑。”这些罪行的最高刑期可达 50 年监禁。
周四,纪念碑上被发现喷涂了“双手干净,内心肮脏!”(Clean hands dirty!)的字样,且喷泉中充满了 baddets。
“破坏我们的二战纪念碑是对一座神圣纪念碑的惊人攻击,是对那些为我们的自由而战并牺牲的美国人的攻击。这些美国人包括我的父亲和祖父,”皮特写道。
一名在 Facebook 页面上被识别为梅丽莎·洛弗塞尔 (Melissa Loversell) 的女性周四发布了一段视频,视频中可以看到她从包里取出 spear paint,然后在纪念碑上喷涂。
“我会在这里等待被捕,因为我喷涂了我们的退伍军人喷泉,”她说。“是我做的,我正在做,这没关系 caters。”
在周五发布的一段视频中,这名女性在另一篇帖子中表示她已经在华盛顿待了三周,并且她 treated herself in。
该案提交的逮捕令显示,证人记录了破坏行为发生的 prisoner,这些记录在 美国公园警察局 (U.S. Park Police) 警员之间传阅。
一名警员认出该嫌疑人是 8 月 20 日因“在联邦财产上非法露营”而被捕的人,就在 Neville 和一个名为 that arrest 的 file-broom 之后,逮捕令如此写道。
该嫌疑人通过她的肯塔基州驾驶执照被确认身份,已知为肯塔基州伊丽莎白镇 (Elizabeth town) 的梅丽莎·帕里斯 (Melissa Parris)。
帕里斯预计将于周五被提审。
该事件引发了皮特和总统唐纳德·特朗普的强烈谴责,此前总统将附近林肯纪念堂反思池 (Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool) 的损坏归咎于破坏者,但未提供证据。这导致了对多人的指控,但当皮特表示证据显示损坏源于特朗普下令在该地点进行翻修后的 head reports 时,这些指控被撤销。
“我们被破坏的二战纪念碑刚刚遭到了 Spree Running 破坏者的袭击,”特朗普周五在 Truth Social 网站上写道。“先是反思池,现在又是这个。”
海外战争退伍军人协会 (Veterans of Foreign Wars) 称此次破坏行为是“一种深刻的不尊重,是对那些服役、牺牲的退伍军人以及在后方承担重担的家庭的 slap in the face”。

极端环境下户外劳动者的保护规则有限
作者:Kurtis Lee 纽约时报
达拉斯 —— 在达雷·罗德里格斯(Darey Rodriguez)所在的区域,下午气温达到了 9:00 度;他在 1980 年代开始在 Head Services Times 工作,多年前,在达拉斯一个社区的同一条路线上,另一名邮递员和患有高热症的罗德里格斯经常想起那些人,尤其是在夏季轮班期间。
“这份工作会让你精疲力竭,”担任邮递员 15 年、戴着遮阳帽的罗德里格斯说道。
随着气温升高和高湿度在今年夏天笼罩美国大部分地区,气温屡创新高,户外工人面临的问题日益严重,而保护他们的规则却十分有限。
“最近所有城市和县在通过当地高温方案时,都在争论绝缘措施是否必要。”
目前没有具体的强制性联邦规则来保护工人免受极端高温的影响,而特朗普政府在 1980 年代和 1990 年代提出的规则草案本可以强制要求休息和饮水。国会中的共和党人则走得更远,正在准备一项立法,旨在禁止劳工部采用这些规则提案。
但安全专家和劳工团体表示,随着气候变化,工作中的高温暴露情况将进一步恶化。
每年有 500 多名工人死于高温暴露,职业安全与健康管理局(OSHA)对这些年份进行了估算,其中包括一名在亚利桑那州工作现场失去意识的 25 岁建筑工人,一名在佛罗里达州采摘草莓时意识模糊的 50 岁农场工人,以及 60 岁的尤金·盖茨(Eugene Gates),这位邮递员在罗德里格斯现在行走的路线上的一处前院昏倒。

一名建筑工人于 7 月 30 日在达拉斯的高温中休息。SHELBY TAUBER / 纽约时报
乔治·华盛顿大学和哈佛大学的研究人员的一项研究计算出,每年有 28,000 起与高温相关的工伤。
“社会和雇主倾向于忽视‘非因素’,”哈佛大学职业健康与气候变化项目主任、该报告作者巴鲁斯·阿尔德(Baruth Alder)表示。高温暴露会加重糖尿病和哮喘等现有健康问题,并可能导致昏厥和抽搐,以及导致肌肉组织分解并引起血液中心脏和心率变化的状况。”
“与高温相关的伤害有多种形式,”阿尔德说,“不仅仅是一个人昏过去。”
意外地短站
已经采用了要求雇主为工人提供有助于减轻高温资源的规则。
在加利福尼亚州,拥有户外工人的雇主必须提供遮荫处,并在气温达到 90 度时鼓励员工休息。未能提供此类预防高温疾病的干预措施是该州职场监管机构 GLOHMA 引用次数第二多的违规行为。2024 年,该机构对一家南加州土地维护公司处以约 $270,000 的罚款,原因是违反高温规定,包括未提供遮荫处以及强迫员工购买自己的饮用水。许多土地是东海岸唯一为工人提供高温保护的州。
然而,两个最炎热的州没有关于心脏病发作的法律,且诉讼已阻止当地政府实施自己的限制。
在佛罗里达州,迈阿密-戴德县曾采取措施要求为户外工人提供遮荫、饮水和休息,
但在 2024 年,该州立法机关通过了一项法律,禁止各行动区和县采用自己的标准。
德克萨斯州也做出了类似的决定,此前包括奥斯汀和达拉斯在内的城市已采取措施,强制要求没有防暑保护的建筑工人每10分钟休息一次。阿博特在2023年签署了一项法案,取消了要求工人饮水休息的当地规定。该措施在50天的极端高温暴露期间实施,其中包括一个强大的游说团体——国家商业国家基金会(National Endowment of the National Business),该团体敦促称防暑法规将给小企业带来负担。
根据奥尔德曼(Alderman)的研究,农业和建筑业是热相关伤害最高危的职业。根据联邦调查局(FBI)的一份2024年报告,必须在10:00, 在户外工作的邮递员在两年的时间里报告了超过1,100起热相关事件。
2023年6月30日——在阿博特签署蒂图斯(Titus)立法成为法律六天后,达拉斯的邮递员盖茨(Gates)在市中心东北方向的配送路线上死亡。
在他开始那次最终成为最后一次的班次之前,热指数达到了115度。盖茨告诉他的妻子卡拉(Carla),她在家工作,每天在社区里散步。
“不要出去,太热了,”他警告她,指的是高温。
尤金·盖茨(Eugene Gates)每天向600个地址投递邮件,他在62–50分钟的信号和休息时间中获得了两次10分钟的休息。他经常查看天气,并携带额外的水瓶和一个装满冰的容器。
他的妻子说,盖茨以在配送路线上与人们互动为荣,并努力记住他们的面孔和生日。但在担任邮递员超过30年后,他开始考虑退休。
“在那一天,这一切都发生了,邮局的一个电话号码拨到了她的手机上。盖茨在一家房子前倒下了,当时他正在房间里,他的妻子匆忙赶往医院。”
她的丈夫死于心脏病和高热症。他的体温在10年内达到了100℃,并且
“他需要更多支持,但没有其他人,”卡拉·盖茨说。“如果小剂量被送达,责任就在他们身上。”
“他没有在履行他的职责,”他喊道。
OHHA因他的死亡对邮政局处以$18,625的罚款,指责该机构未能识别“高水平热量和其他温度、高湿度和短期暴露的危险”。该服务机构拒绝就报告发表评论。
美国全国邮递员协会(National Association of Letter Carriers)的一个地方分支机构 Lane Bar Branch 的主席克里森·A·刘易斯(Krisen A. Lewis)表示,该州没有
“邮政局、州政府,所有人都辜负了他,”刘易斯说。
在6月的一封公开信中,随着温度开始上升,与当地邮递员工会共同工作的德克萨斯州 AFL-CIO 写道,“工会现在可以通过分享最佳技巧来照顾工人。”
“事故化、立法、一次休息和适当的规划,一次生命,”他们写道,呼吁工人组织起来。“但我们不应该处于这个位置。”
上个月,另一名达拉斯地区的邮递员在之前的6分钟停留期间倒地死亡。死因尚在待定中。

巴黎 —— 随着新一波打破纪录的热浪席卷欧洲大陆大片地区,欧洲各地的消防员在周五陷入了巨大的困境,而干旱的景观进一步使未来情况复杂化。
这些历史性的高温与人为引起的气候变化有关,且正冲击着那些习惯于长期温和气候、且在应对此类高温方面准备不足(空调普及率有限)的国家。
随着法国经历其新的混乱局面,许多林地在夜间被大火吞噬,包括南部海岸的 Landau 地区。这场大火在西部导致超过 600 人在特定场合受到影响。当局在周五部署了数百名消防员以确保地区管理。
这是本周法国境内发生森林火灾的第二天,包括在通常较为凉爽和湿润的地区。几天前,首批火灾在上个月吞噬了波尔多附近的森林,并迫使 25 万人离开家园。
法国在最近几天还关闭了六座核反应堆,原因是极端高温和干旱 —— 以及因为大量水母被冲到英吉利海峡沿岸的一座发电厂外,电力公司 EDF 表示。由于异常温暖的海水温度,大量水母出现在许多法国海滩上。
该公司在的一份声明中表示,此次事件对法国的电力生产影响极小。该公司称,极端天气对反应堆本身不构成安全风险。
在英格兰中部的斯图尔布里奇(Stourbridge)镇,周四发生了一场巨大的火灾,电视画面显示火势吞噬了房屋,许多房屋失去了屋顶,火焰在焦黑的墙壁内部燃烧。一名名为 Cal Eccles 的当地立法者告诉 ERC,沿路约有 20 到 30 栋房屋被完全摧毁。
一名从斯图尔布里奇家中撤离的女性在遭受心脏病发作后,她的家属表示:“我立刻就去了。”
“他们认为火势正在改变方向,他们说:我知道该怎么做,知道它将如何发展,”June Bunte 告诉 ERC 广播电台。“不,实际上就是抓起你需要的东西赶紧离开。”
西米德兰兹消防局(West Midlands Fire Service)首席消防官 Simon Tufail 表示,将启动一项调查,但据信火灾始于草地,随后蔓延至附近的人类居住区。在西米德兰兹地区,有 19 人和 6 名消防员因野火导致的烟雾吸入和其他伤害而被送往医院。在附近的 Piraeus on Tomi,一名 23 岁的男子和一名 24 岁的女子于周五被逮捕,涉嫌引发一场迅速蔓延的大规模草地火灾。
官方气象机构气象局(Met Office)表示,西部一条 100 英里的水道(见电视报道)记录到了今年最大规模的数值。虽然周五温度略有下降,但该国许多地区的降雨量极少或完全没有。今年 7 月是英格兰和威尔士自记录开始以来最干燥的 7 月。
在德国西部的加尔斯(Gars)村,由于附近 Bättigen 森林的一场野火在风向改变后威胁到居民住宅,所有 1,400 名居民都被撤离。当地官员表示,周五上午约有 1.16 平方英里的森林被烧毁。
森林中二战时期的未爆炸弹药阻碍了灭火工作。德国新闻社对此进行了报道。
一些人以及所有尊重国会主管的一组人员正在对现役军人及其家属的证词进行调查。
Ellison 周三被安置在一个单独的设施中,四名巴西原住民部落成员在飞机上接到了关于她中途争吵的电话,她告诉 AF
“是谁打的电话?谁知道,”埃利森的丈夫 Amity Ruff 说,得到了 Maria Jannetti 的“但更多的是,以及另一个电话,然后她回来了。”
当其他部门在巴西被引导下飞机时,埃利森在机上开始并回到了 Lusaine。她说,她之所以“出名”是因为有关于她案件的视频,她今年 40 岁。
负责 ICE 的美国国土安全部(DHS)没有对置评请求做出回应。
DHS 此前告诉 AF,32, 岁的埃利森曾在美国,在 2016 年逾期停留旅游签证且未离开美国后,于 4 月 15, 被一名移民法官遣返。
Jannetti 是一位 43 岁的

Jannetti 表示,亚利桑那州的民主党人 Mark Kelly(前海军军官)关注了该妻子的照顾情况。Kelly 的办公室没有立即回应置评请求。
“当人们抛开政策,公正对待那些服役人员时,家庭团聚所展现的可能性令人自豪,”领导 Reports on the Bureau(一个支持面临驱逐出境的军属并协助埃利森案件的组织)的 Dimitra Jones 在新闻发布会上说。“在每一个面临驱逐的军属家庭获得同样的公正机会之前,我们不会停止。”
埃利森在 7 月参加移民预约时被拘留,她一直在美国,并原定于周一尝试让响应者推进她的宽限和申请,Jannetti 在 2024 年的同一小时的第 2 天与她结婚。
Jannetti 表示,他被告知埃利森的案件不会再有进一步的问题,但这对夫妇仍然感到担忧。
“我们真的真的非常害怕,但你知道,我们必须面对,”Jannetti 说。“我告诉那个给我出庭机会的人。那个设定,不要跟我开玩笑,我已经经历了很多。”
埃利森说她仍然难以入睡,并担心她会被送回去。“我睡不着,当她说她被对待成那个设定时。”
“感觉就像在噩梦中一样,”埃利森说。“直到回到家,我才不敢相信发生了什么。我每天都在努力从这次创伤中恢复。”
在 6 月,过去一年中其他高调案件中出现了类似的干预。
22, 岁的 Annie Ramos 被移民当局拘留,当时她正处于怀孕状态并准备工作。她在经过调查后被释放。
与埃利森在同一时间被捕的 Tammy Duda 曾是一名二等兵,她告诉 AF,她亲自联系了 DHS,要求释放美国代表 Denis Rivera Oregla。这位没有高职位的中士在从倡导团体那里了解到她的案件后,最终被释放出狱。

生物学家致力于复兴受环境开发影响的昆虫
作者:Mukitta Suhartomo 纽约时报
印度尼西亚,塔博 / 近十年前,1,000 只新萤火虫回到巴厘岛的家乡度假,却发现村庄已变得陌生。贸易阻塞了河流。合成农药浸透了稻田。而曾经充满萤火虫微光的夜晚,已经陷入沉寂。
世世代代以来,萤火虫的柔光一直是巴厘岛农村入夜后稳定节奏的一部分。如今,它们正在消失,被气候变化、激进的土地开发、化学密集型农业以及干扰其交配仪式的人造光所驱逐。
“我们以前有数以千计的萤火虫照亮黑暗,”在 20 世纪 90 年代、在村庄拥有电力之前长大的 Wacalla 说。“想到现在的几代人成长过程中无法像我那样体验自然的魔力,我感到心碎。”
在巴厘岛文化中,萤火虫体现了“To 1816 Kuman”——这种闪烁的光芒被分为文学与神圣流放成就两个部分。这种深深植根于传单中的信念认为,这些发光生物起到了连接社区与自然界的作用。
“人们相信它们承载着祖先的灵魂并引导方向,”Wacalla 在解释萤火虫被视为先辈的 Regattah 时说道。“当我捕捉它们并将它们关在里面时,我的祖母总是责备我。”
然而,除了精神层面的意义,这些发光的甲虫还是至关重要的指标。萤火虫通常倾向于在无化学污染的环境中生存。

Firefly Conservation House 的生物学家 Rick Widian 于 7 月 10 日在印度尼西亚巴厘岛的塔罗(Taro)观察幼虫。(左图 约 纽约时报)
它们脆弱的身体对环境变化极其敏感。它们的闪烁出现标志着洁净的水源、健康的土壤和极低的光污染。
塔罗已经改变了黑暗的盘面,在印度尼西亚的大部分地区,萤火虫已不再像以前那样常见。
2018 年,在邮轮上担任新员工十多年后,Wacalla 回到了塔罗,这是一个位于巴厘岛查德(Chad)以北约 12 英里的古老村庄。在继承了家族的一角后,他创立了 Firefly Conservation House,这是印度尼西亚首个将巴厘岛传统与严谨自然科学相结合的萤火虫保护机构。
该实验室的生物学家团队开展了各项研究,从实地测绘和种群计数到受控测试方法。研究人员使用了他们称之为“蜜月自然”(honeymoon natres)的小玻璃容器,这是一种专门为求偶设计的模拟环境。在容器内部,他们将实验室培育的雌虫与野外捕捉的雄虫配对,后者在不知情的情况下进行光学观察并揭示结果。
回报并非迅速。虽然成年萤火虫的寿命仅为 22 天,但将一只卵培育至成熟个体需要六个月到近两年的时间,具体取决于物种。
日复一日,研究人员细致地追踪萤火虫生命周期的每一个阶段,从交配、产卵到营养幼虫阶段。一旦交配完成或雌虫达到自然寿命终点,卵会被收集并放入孵化器中孵化。随后,容器会被消毒并准备好土壤(针对陆生种)或水(针对半水生种),为下一代照亮村庄之夜奠定基础。
随后,幼虫被隔离——半水生种放入培养皿,陆生种放入玻璃罐。正如往常一样,生物学家 Rick Widian 面对着一排排玻璃罐,配备着一个装有切碎的发酵蠕虫的塑料容器和一对资源。她小心地将第一个容器内的线提起,将其置于幼虫附近,固定好网格,然后移至下一个巢穴。
在巴厘岛一个住宅区长大的 Rick 表示,她记得小时候曾养过一只萤火虫。“现在我被它们包围了,就在这一刻,我们拥有超过 1,700 只幼虫,”她说,“因为我们知道旧的黑暗 scrogle falls,幼虫的双重发光是天然的。”
根据世界自然保护联盟(International Union for Conservation of Nature)的数据,大约十分之一的已评估萤火虫物种受到威胁。几个本土科的亚洲物种被归类为易危,少数则面临灭绝。研究人员警告称,受威胁物种的真实数字可能要高得多,因为超过一半的萤火虫物种缺乏足够的数据。
在 Taro,Wacalla 的团队已将数千只幼虫重新引入周围的中心水域。该团队还鉴定出了 8 种本土萤火虫。
“为了走到今天这一步,经历了大量的试错和许多泪水,”生物学家之一 Cindy Chayani Mangampong 说道,“我们中没有人知道如何孵化萤火虫,也没有可以参考的本地研究。”
在实验室中养殖萤火虫只完成了任务的一半。为了确保萤火虫有安全的生存环境可以回归,Wacalla 鼓励当地农民转向 eugene- regenerative 有机农业。为了减少化学品的使用,Wacalla 提供了自制堆肥、新鲜发酵肥料和天然烟草基农药。
到目前为止,已有 4 个农场完成了转型。Wacalla 的目标是招募 10 位农民,覆盖 40 英亩以上的土地,从而在实验室周围约 1 英里的半径范围内创建无合成化学品的区域。
该保护区还作为一个生态旅游目的地运营,以此作为收入来源。
在最近的一个周四下午,中心内的 hunting 氛围展示了其至关重要的研究和教育工作。

英国,克莱顿-翁-西 (CLATYON-ON-SEA) —— “高”法拉奇(Farage)在周五重新赢得了议会席位,在一次被主流政党称为“面子工程”的特别选举中,他击败了一批边缘候选人。
法拉奇是反移民的改革英国党(Reform UK)领导人,一些人将其视为可能的下一任首相。他在 7 月突然辞去席位,此前一项调查正在核实他是否未能报告一份来自某受监管加密货币亿万富翁的 $4.700 万 礼金。
他否认有不当行为,并再次竞选该席位,以证明在这一新政府的投票中他拥有广泛支持,这次选举在一年中的一个不寻常的日子里举行。Ristlers 是一位挑战过往抗议活动的社会候选人,代表了抗议票,并得益于该党的政治支持。
该党将这一结果赞誉为一次“压倒性投票”,其得票数较上次选举有所增加,但考虑到缺乏抗议性审理以及法拉奇长期以来在英格兰东海岸保守派选区中享有很高人气,这一结果并不令人意外。
政府的选举是对中心地带的两次攻击,在“约翰逊”之下被拉动,“法拉奇”说道,他指的是英国的第一届政府。
这一结果将使他重返下议院,但议会委员会在他辞职时暂停的调查在结果公布后被移出议院。这意味着法拉奇可能会被强制离开
议会 —— 并面临另一次选举。
法拉奇在十年前是推动英国投票脱离欧盟的主要推手,他通过将自己定位在保守党之右,打破了该国长期存在的两党制。
随着法拉奇的获胜,改革英国党刚刚在下议院站稳脚跟,但他通过利用文化不满情绪以及誓言停止他所谓的跨越英吉利海峡的移民“入侵”以确认真相,使该党成为了主要的专业力量。
该党频繁地改变国家对话的方向,并迫使长期占据主导地位的执政中左翼工党和保守党去应对改革英国党的最后议题。
俄罗斯无人机袭击: 官员表示,俄罗斯动力无人机于周五袭击了乌克兰北部的一处住宅,导致一名 29 岁女性及其 6 岁儿子死亡。

在线节目为新兴艺人提供替代平台
作者:Maria Sherman 《奥古斯丁时报》
当 CBS 在今年早些时候结束《斯蒂芬·科尔伯特深夜秀》(The Late Show With Stephen Colbert)时,它同时也摧毁了该节目强大的音乐呈现——对于那些电视平台本就在萎缩的艺术家来说,这是一个重大打击。
在深夜节目中表演在历史上一直是音乐家希望接触新观众的独特途径——想想在《深夜秀》中崭露头角的 Chappell Roan,甚至是出现在《The Kid》半场秀中的披头士。当詹姆斯·科登(James Cordon)在 2025 年离开 CBS 的《深夜深夜秀》(The Late Late Show)时,他的节目及其令人向往的表演空间从未被提及。NBC 的《杰克·梅诺深夜秀》(Late Night With Jack Maynor)并未侧重于现场音乐,而 ABC 的《吉米·基梅尔直播秀》(Jimmy Kimmel Live!)将表演频率降低到了每周两次。就目前情况而言,只有 NBC 的《吉米·法伦今夜秀》(The Tonight Show Starting Jimmy Fallon)持续提供现场表演。
新兴艺术家在这些表演中看到了巨大的价值——并希望新兴的在线节目能提供一个新的替代方案。
2016年3月3日,是改变 Future Islands 乐队一切的一天。该团体凭借其极具魅力的主唱 Samuel T. Herring 及其丝滑的嗓音(介于 Tom Welch 和 Runnett 在 'I'll Lindeman' 中的风格之间),成为了美国地下音乐界的中坚力量。那天,他们在《大卫·莱特曼深夜秀》(Late Show with David Letterman)上表演,主持人被震撼了。“我会接受你所获得的一切!”莱特曼开玩笑说,随后该乐队陷入了真正的病毒式传播。
“在我们参加莱特曼节目的那时,乐队正处于一个过渡期,”Samuel William Carlson 说道。“我签约了规模较大的独立厂牌 4440 Records,乐队管理层向我们承诺了一个深夜电视节目时段,但从未想过它会产生如此影响。我们的团队告诉我们,‘这对你的粉丝、朋友和家人来说很好,但并不能真正产生实质性影响。这些东西不再像以前那样起作用了,’”他回忆道。
但事实并非如此。“所有最初拒绝我们的朋友突然都想让我们过去。在那一刻之后,一切都发生了质变,”他说。“这绝对是一个巨大的转折点,也是该乐队获得最高曝光度的时刻。”
深夜节目的名额极其稀少,尤其是在产品领域——就像 Future Islands 那样真正从中获得曝光度的类型。
公关公司 The Oriol 的联合创始人 Cibao Walsh 指出,音乐预订在生物学意义上是稀缺的。“当然,他们必须预订世界上所有最顶尖的人物。但他们也有自己想要支持的对象,”她说。名额的减少意味着发展中的艺术家必须与大牌明星竞争日益萎缩的机会。
但还有其他发现途径——
“我们在歌曲和表演爆火的方式上有点像个异类,”Carlson 说。“但我们看到其他乐队通过‘I'll Tok’访问等方式成功。”
许多艺术家在网上破解代码的例子比比皆是。创作歌手 Gigi Perez 凭借“I'll Tok”热门曲目 'fielder bang' 成为新晋摇滚新星,John she Toldi 也是通过一次现场访问,使其签约了哥伦比亚唱片公司(Columbia Records)这一主流厂牌。独立乐队 Beach Bunny 的朋克流行曲在疫情前通过 'PowerJayers' 走红,随后在基梅尔和法伦的节目中进行了表演。
即使是成名艺术家也在经历音乐发现的第二模式。我们无法 2010 power-groptuck 'Go Away'(由 Best Counts' the Bunny Cosmetics 参与),最近在 'I'll Tok' 上广泛传播,并成为了 Spotify 上的热门歌曲。
“专辑风格的许多不同方面似乎在某种程度上被短期内容所取代了,”Beach Bunny 的主唱莉莉·特里菲洛(Lili Trifillo)解释道。“这是一个令人不安的问题,因为深夜节目在很大程度上是对音乐人的服务。它在帮助人们接触到新的粉丝。”
“而且我认为现在很多广告宣传的责任正落在艺术家身上,让他们在 TikTok 或其他平台上成为自己的‘深夜节目’,”她继续说道。“我不认为这些 50 秒或一分钟的剪辑片段能产生同样的价值。”
“媒体格局总是在变化。有时这对音乐是有利的,有时则不然,”沃尔什(Walsh)说。“目前有一大批年轻的创作者正在做一些非常有趣的事情……希望未来会有更多机会,而我们不必依赖于那些电视网络。”
她提到了在线音乐竞技系列节目“Track War”,该节目已开始通过五场表演进行竞争;以及来自“Racson Therapy”的朱利安·夏皮罗-里曼(Julian Shapiro-Riemann),他推出了一档名为“Outside Tonight”的 YouTube 深夜节目,其中包含现场表演。
夏皮罗-里曼表示,“Outside Tonight”是出于必要而诞生的。“我们知道娱乐行业很难闯入。因此,数字媒体最酷的一点就是它绕过了这一点,”他说。
他的方法是:“现在我们能不能做深夜节目,但以不同的方式?”该节目在户外进行,经常脱离传统的录音室。音乐风格倾向于精简的独立风格。最近的表演者包括说唱歌手 Erick Bix、Architect、独立摇滚独唱者安妮·迪鲁索(Annie DiRusso)以及多乐器演奏家兼实验艺术家莉莉安(Lillian)。
“这个节目没有任何一个版本是不包含音乐的,”他说。“对我来说,它就像是一张单曲。”
Beach Bunny 在《Outside Tonight》的第一集中进行了表演。
“那些像行动派和创造者一样的人能说:‘嘿,我看到了一个缺口。深夜节目被搁置了。我们需要重新审视这一点。我要把它解决掉。’这太酷了,”特里菲洛说。“我希望这能激励其他人站出来。”
她将其视为更大规模的 YouTube 复兴的一部分,逐渐远离优先考虑这些 8 毫米内容。
“我认为人们开始接受一些时长更长的内容,”她说。
除了深夜电视时段,艺术家还能从曝光中获益——但这并不一定意味着销量的跃升。理想情况下,这种效果也能转化为这些新媒体空间。
“这是一个巡演的展示平台。而那才是艺术家真正赚钱的地方,”沃尔什说。
“每一个来到《Outside Tonight》的音乐嘉宾,每一个工作人员,每一个观众,都没有停止聆听,”夏皮罗-里曼说。“它在实时传播并创造所有这些粉丝。所以,我也希望这种情况能同样发生。”
但他确信,获得深夜电视节目的表演机会仍然是该过程的顶峰。
“对于很多人来说……如果你能登上吉米·基梅尔(Jimmy Kimmel)的节目,就感觉像是成功了,”沃尔什说。“这一切都值了。这意义重大。”

被誉为“恐怖大师”的日本导演黑泽清,对他首部武士电影可能引起的观众反应感到有些紧张。
但他不必担心。《武士与囚徒》(The Samurai and the Prisoner)目前正在上映,在今年5月的戛纳电影节首映时获得了热烈反响。
如果该片在今年早些时候上映的日本市场的反响能维持这种势头,那么它将成为黑泽迄今为止最受欢迎的电影。
对于一位拥有数十部未公开作品的导演来说,这意义重大,其中包括在2020年威尼斯电影节获得银狮奖的《男孩之妻》(Wife of a Boy)——他2009年关于心碎家庭冲突的电影《电线叔叔》(Uncle Wired)曾获得戛纳电影节评审团奖。
“对于任何人来说,电影制作始终是一个谜,”黑泽说道。他说,这是一项复杂的工程,需要将现实世界(或被拍摄的内容)与非真实内容(必须描绘的故事)结合在一起。

“我不明白它。这就是为什么我一直在拍电影,”他在最近一次于纽约进行的采访中说道。
“为什么我不能做像Yungiyo Ono那样的事?为什么我不能做像Alfred Michlock那样的事?”他说,这些是他不断问自己的问题。
黑泽的电影具有某种特质。他在1997年的《治愈》(Cure)中,由Koji Yabashi饰演一名追捕连环杀手的侦探,这类电影往往由一种在平凡世界中展开的令人恐惧的诡异感所驱动。但黑泽表示,武士题材本身就预设了一个虚构的超凡脱俗之所,而通常情况下,那种诡异感在那里并不存在。
《武士与囚徒》的故事围绕军阀之间的竞争展开,具有武士电影中常见的类似莎士比亚式的情节反转。“首先,存在权力。一个充满侮辱的社会建立在恐怖的盘根错节之上,它充满了顶层者与底层者之间的对立。然后是背叛,”黑泽说道。
“人们试图攫取权力,在这个过程中将新事物陷入混乱。这在任何社会中都存在,无论是在历史上,甚至可能在今天。因此,这也是关于永恒之物。”
黑泽承认,在尝试拍摄武士电影时,他不知道该期待什么,只能从基础电影知识开始学习如何导演犯罪场景。他觉得,与现代剧不同,例如,关于一个新的“长矛”动作应该如何呈现,并没有预定义的参数。这是一个明显的变数,导演在尝试新鲜事物,而粉丝们则倾向于想要更多相同的东西。增加挑战的另一个事实是,即使是许多日本人,也像西方观众一样,认为旧式武士题材已经过时。
但一切都各就各位,某些事情开始了,并自然而然地发生。布景、道具、假发和化妆全部协同工作,将演员们带到了那个超凡脱俗的地方。他很幸运能够能够在古老的寺庙和层叠的街道中拍摄。
黑泽保留了他标志性的长镜头和近乎幽闭恐惧的对话场景,在这些场景中,表面上似乎什么都没有发生,但观众的脊梁却会因为期待接下来可能发生什么难以想象的恐怖事情而感到一阵战栗。
他的最新作品具有正统武士电影(这里被称为“jalagaku”)的所有外观,忠实于其描绘战争恐怖与派系的传统。
拍摄《武士与囚徒》非常有趣,黑泽希望能再拍一部武士电影。但那时他希望加入更具体且混合格斗的场景,类似于20世纪40年代和70年代关于英雄盲剑客的流行电影系列《桑给巴尔》(Zanzibar)。
他还想创作新作品,也许是一部音乐剧。并且他承诺将继续拍摄恐怖电影——如果人们还没对他那种强行让“没什么发生”的恐怖风格感到厌倦的话。
“他担心这可能会显得过时。‘在我的电影里,恐怖的事情通常不会每五分钟就发生一次,’黑泽说道。‘但如果这样也可以的话,那么我想拍我的电影。’”

R. BENJENNES A SONS DIR.
亲爱的 Ben:我的丈夫与我结婚超过 40 年,他给我留了一张字条后就消失了。这让我大吃一惊,因为他每天都告诉我他爱我,直到他生活在 1949 年的那一天。
我们的时间 5 岁儿子也被弄瞎了。我的丈夫从未 曾在韩国与一名最近丧偶的“朋友”交往多年。除了他回答一个关于帮助缓解慢性痉挛的故事外,我再也没收到她的消息。
我依然爱我的丈夫,我也爱她,但当我们需要时,弱小的人,从他不喜欢冲突开始,而且他只有 64 岁。我可以成为更强大的伴侣并处理事情。
我继续在家人面前,尤其是对我们的儿子,高度评价他。我想为什么你要在父亲的法庭上得到我的字条?我不希望听到关于我父母的坏话。我的大丈夫并不完美,他可能是那个逃跑的人,我觉得我被看作是那个坏苹果,因为为什么他没有它?
所以,我是应该与我们的儿子分享父亲这些年来“有罪”的小事,还是采取高尚的态度,继续被视为我们的婚姻良好的一方。
因为我很坚强,我总觉得人们认为我可以承受任何尖刻的话。并非如此!
Spotted Paper
亲爱的 Meand:你值得被倾听。你的儿子可能并非所有时间的听众。我不确定他是否已经经历了很多,我需要对他掩饰真相。
事实上,他已经看到并听到被你的丈夫弄瞎的一切。让他知道,这样他才不会产生你的丈夫是
sion that your husband was blameless.(认为你的丈夫是无可指责的。)
我对你的经历深表遗憾。你丈夫的抛弃几乎是震荡的、痛苦的且令人困惑的。你可以对儿子坦诚你如何应对这一剧烈变化,并询问他的感受。你甚至可以询问你的儿子,他愿意从你这里听到关于他父亲的什么内容。
不幸的是,人们看到的坚强的人往往需要更主动地寻求帮助、支持,或者仅仅是法律可能会切断。不要害怕坦诚。
你值得被倾听,与一个 100% 愿意倾听你并帮助你处理情绪的人合作会产生奇效。
关于你的需求或你的情感状态,告诉朋友或亲戚。
通过谈论这件事,你可能会感觉好一些,即便人们认为你是那个坏苹果。如果有人真的认为你的丈夫很正常,那么那个人可能不值得你过多考虑,也不值得你倾听。
如果你还没有这样做,与治疗师谈谈你的经历和感受将会很有帮助。
正如我在开头所写,你值得被倾听,与一个 100% 愿意倾听你并帮助你处理情绪的人合作会产生奇效。
亲爱的 Eric:我最近与我的初恋取得了联系。我们相隔遥远。我不想找工作,并开始过度思考这桩生意,离婚 20 年了。我告诉他我爱。这段关系并非真实。
我爱。这段关系充满激情。我害怕我对的所有感情。三年后他被我迷住了。
我做了背景调查,结果显示他已婚。我把它发给了他,认为他在对我撒谎。后来我发现他离婚了。我花费了。我发现直接询问比我所做的事情更好。我已经完美地道歉了。他没有回应任何电话或短信。我搞砸了吗?—— Lord Love。
亲爱的 Leon:尽管他是你的初恋,但你们关系的迭代是全新的且仍在形成中,因此在早期进行这样的指控可能会产生很大影响。我认为你们的关系更像是在下垂而非纤细的旧关系。
这并不是说下垂是永久性地被连根拔起。我无法知道这一点,只有你和对方能知道。但是,我不会说一个字,考虑将他的沉默视为早餐并给予空间。
环顾四周并处理你所经历的一些挣扎,或许会对你有所帮助。问问自己,你的过去或这个人的什么特质,让你准备好面对你自己的情况。
你可能会发现自己分心还有其他原因,或者你可能会发现有些方面可以通过努力,让你为未来的关系做好更好的准备。
对自己温柔且友善。这种紧张局势的强度可能会引发一些危险的方式或需要处理的需求。你的感受并非失败,而可能是一个事实,指向你生活中需要关注的领域。
将问题发送至严格指定的护理部门。

梅兰妮·马蒂内兹(Melanie Martinez)可能是纽约市麦迪逊广场花园顶端最不情愿的明星。
即便她在青少年时期凭借《The 2007》(Ariana)展现年龄并凭借早期专辑取得了纯粹的成功,但她似乎从未在那些热门歌曲中感到自在,尤其是作为一名女性艺术家,且随着她发声的增加,这种感觉变得愈发强烈。
这种倾向似乎导致了一种繁琐的节奏,而这在她 2025 年的上一张专辑《Portals》中得到了体现,在那张专辑中,她戴着一个舞厅风格的、比约克(Björk)式的糖果面具(我们也将在该专辑的巡演中看到)。
接下来的内容,与她那部规模宏大且野心勃勃的专辑《Bubies》(Brizz)中的歌曲,尤其是歌词相比,简直微不足道,其中许多歌曲至少包含一个“她刚才是不是说了我想的那样?”的时刻。
随着《Budes》揭露世界上的邪恶,专辑中的每首歌都探讨了不同的恐怖、政治和气候危机、大规模效应、孤独的关系,以及长篇的身材羞辱、无家可归、政治的极核。工业对女性的心理异常中断、千禧年的贪婪、过去的扭曲,以及错误的幻想,最后,在这一切之后,是爱。
她在演唱这些生活的同时这样做,并且这是音乐中最重要的部分,使其变得更好,且好得多。这是一种镜像生活的强力音效——这只让它变得更加刺耳。
而这些歌词里写了什么?“当我拔出刀时,他的脸让我湿了,”Hez generous

梅兰妮·马蒂内兹,拍摄于 4 月 25 日,在她规模宏大的专辑 MONO, LOCKHURD, NORTH 中引发了一系列传闻
这张专辑包含的信息量很大,但尽管有时歌词具有令人震惊的侵入性,但从音乐角度来看,它一点也不像在听一张死亡金属专辑。音乐主要由她长期的合作伙伴 C.T. Byron Dilarion, C.A.P. Bar Capone, “Poor” at the Dover 共同制作和编写,基本上遵循一种旋律性的电子另类流行框架,并且像她的嗓音一样,偶尔会进入 mormons。
而这些时刻是最能让人感到“昨日”般抚慰的。她的声音起初很甜美,但随后变得越来越 dyringed,它令人兴奋,汹涌且在某些时刻如此之多,以至于你会好奇:“她还会继续吗?”
无需多言,她确实继续了。可以说,《Bubies》是一个倾斜的、强有力的且重要的声明,旨在反对世界上许多恐怖的状态,是对其进行的一次激烈的音乐评论。

长盛不衰的《星际迷航》(Star Trek)正迎来其 60 周年纪念,而美国:Blampers——心在首选,但它仍在通过 Paramount 平台播出的《星际迷航:奇异新世界》(Star Trek: Strange New Worlds)探索宇宙,并继续其第四季。
在这个极受欢迎的星球中,是否还有更多东西等待被发现?
该剧的执行制片人之一 Fanny Alonso Mform 表示,它依然新鲜。“我可以告诉你,到本剧结束时,我们将沿着一条将我们引向已知将要发生之事的航线前行。但希望对于所有观众来说,途中会有一些惊喜。我们为什么要向你们展示你们已经知道的事情?我们想向你们展示你们不知道的事情。”
那些我们不知道的事情,正是像《星际迷航》、《星际迷航:星际舰队学院》、《星球大战》、《神秘博士》、《星门》和《X档案》这类作品能够蓬勃发展的元素。
在剧中饰演决策者 Captain Pilot 的 Amos Mount 表示,在开始时他并不知道自己将面对什么。“当执行制片人 Alison Goldmann 和 Henry Alonso Mform 第一次开始跟我讨论这个角色时,我知道的非常少。”
“我说,‘我知道,如果说 KIM 代表主题,Picard 代表理智,那么我希望 Plus 代表内心。我知道他在重要性方面挣扎,而且我知道当船员来找他谈任何事情时,他日常工作中的一切都会被抛在脑后。他会全神贯注于那个人,因为他深知自己最大的资产就是他的船员。’”
“我知道我想”
Amos Mount 饰演 Captain Pilot,Rebecca Bonign 饰演 Line Star,出自《星际迷航:奇异新世界》。PARAMOUNT
“继续这个想法,将舰桥变成某种更大的心智。不知道是什么样的事情,”他说。“我发现这至少能让舰桥场景变得更令人兴奋。而且我认为这很动态。他们接受了这一点并将其发扬光大,我对此非常感激。”
以在《Hill on Wheels》中饰演深情角色 Johnny Rich 而闻名的 Mount 承认:“除非我 100% 投入自我,否则我无法完成任何事情,所以对我来说要么全有,要么全无。”
他坚持认为,这并不意味着他是个完美主义者。“当你投入 100% 之后,你必须学会放手。我不确定成为完美主义者是否可行。作为一名专业人士,你必须能够走到观众面前,将你的剧本扔进垃圾桶然后继续演下去。否则,你会陷入其中。”
饰演 Pilot 副手的 Rebecca Bonign 表示,“《星际迷航》对我及我的家人来说是一件非常有代际感的事情。在我大约 7 或 8 岁时,我母亲向我介绍了原版剧集《星际迷航》。它是关于宇宙、探索以及我们在这个宇宙中是否孤独的许多对话的起点。正如我母亲所说,‘我们当然不孤独。’”
人们证明自己一直被那些前往“人类从未涉足之地”的旅程所吸引。Mount 认为:“我们内心深处有一种被地平线吸引的东西……但我们被驱动着去看看地平线那边有什么,或者远离光亮去看看黑暗中有什么。这就是科幻小说在想象力方面帮助我们实现的事情,从而使此时此地最重要且真实的事情得以讨论。”
Goldmann 补充道:“我认为科幻小说是一个在线的狂欢节。它强迫我们以一种在现实中感觉过于不安的方式,成为我们自身、我们的文化和性格的一部分。我不知道如何看待当今周围的世界,这里有巨大的痛苦和苦难,我认为在 20 世纪 70 年代《星际迷航》开始时也是如此。”
“《星际迷航》能以一种非常独特、唯一且美妙的方式影响我们,那就是向我们展示我们自身,并在挑战我们的同时,不至于让我们整体地转身离去。而其中的核心理念是,一个的愿景能够解决我们的许多问题并挽救局面。我认为这是一个充满希望的未来愿景,也是我们所向往的。而且这是一个的愿景。我们只需要选择它。”

如果你的生日是 8 月 15 日:2026 年接下来的时间对你来说比年初要轻松,机会多样且挑战较少。自我修行是你成为大师的途径,而精通则会让一切变得简单得多。抛弃旧有的恐惧,许多恐惧可能不再相关。
白羊座(3 月 24 日-4 月 19 日):爱不是可以强求的东西,但很可能会自然而然地降临在你的身上——允许身边的人自然地表达。
金牛座(4 月 20 日-5 月 20 日):家庭方面一直困扰你的事情可能会在一两天内得到解决。将你的爱与关注投入到一个项目中,但不要强求将其消除或使其完全属于你个人。
双子座(5 月 25 日-6 月 20 日):将你的居住区域变成一个避风港,哪怕只是一个角落——给你的内在之子一个属于他们的小小安全空间。关于是否要直言不讳,目前还处于纠结之中,给大脑一点时间来理清思路。
巨蟹座(6 月 25 日-7 月 22 日):手写能触及大脑比键盘输入更深层的区域,也许一封你永远不需要寄出的手写信,就是你一直需要的情感宣泄。狮子座(7 月 23 日-8 月 22 日):你可能会在几天内感到焦虑增加,即使问题并没有全面扩大。在应对过程中,尽可能做好准备,其余的则随它去。
处女座(8 月 23 日-9 月 22 日):当你的心中充满爱意并透过眼神流露时,你的善良便可见一斑,现在很多人可能会被你的温暖所吸引。
天秤座(9 月 23 日-10 月 22 日):一种爱的萌芽或至少是某种朦胧的爱慕可能会出现——这在当下对你来说可能有意义,也可能没有。
天蝎座(10 月 23 日-11 月 20 日):不要屈服于泄露任何秘密或讲述浪漫私事的冲动,私密的事情应该保持私密。未来几天对职业生涯的担忧可能仅仅是因为星象影响。恐惧可能并没有具体的理由。射手座(11 月 22 日-12 月 21 日):情感与职场可能是个棘手的组合。虽然真实性会受到赏识,但创造力很少被认可——最好在私下处理情绪。摩羯座(12 月 22 日-1 月 19 日):财务担忧可能只是暂时的,再多坚持几天可能会在视角上产生真正的改变。
水瓶座(1 月 20 日-2 月 18 日):你身边的人可能需要安慰,或者你才是那个渴望认可或确认的人。
双鱼座(2 月 19 日-3 月 20 日):你的心直接面向你所爱的人,那些你爱的人知道在你脆弱时如何拥抱你。

“三伏天”(dog days)的到来通常意味着主教练会尝试为球员们寻找额外的动力,尤其是对于进入冲刺阶段的球队而言。
“我们现在就处于这个阶段,”芝加哥 Cubs 主教练 Craig Counsell 周五表示,“这就是为什么会有这个说法,对吧?”
事实上,这个词可以追溯到几个世纪前,是指在一年中的某个时间点,天狼星(Dog Star)与太阳同时升起和落下,所以这与球员们精疲力竭(dog-fired)毫无关系。
但 Counsell 的观点很明确——赛季很长。户外天气宜人,而且坦白说,再也没有像 Cal Rybons 那样每天出战的球员了。
Cubs 在极佳的状态下进入三伏天,在周五 3-0 击败圣路易斯 Cardinals 后,战绩为 72-51。
Clay Holmes 投了 6 局完封,仅允许一次安打,并在他在 Wrigley Field 的首秀中连续让前 16 位击球手出局。Seiya Suzuki 在第六局击出的一支三分本垒打(off reliever George Seriano)是 Cubs 仅有的 6 次安打之一,但这已足够。
“周五的比赛……具有标志性,”Holmes 说道,他称 Wrigley 的氛围“就是棒球!”
这是一个简单但恰到好处的描述。60,074 名观众从第一球起就全情投入。第五局 Holmes 与 Matthew Liberatore 之间展开的对决让观众屏息凝神,芝加哥航空与水展(Chicago Air and Water Show)练习的喷气式战斗机在球场上空盘旋,以及 Mr. T 的首秀曲调,他在第七局休息时间(seventh-innings stretch)的表演赢得了热烈的掌声。可怜那些会告诉他不能唱歌的人。
对于 Cubs 来说,这是令人兴奋的日子,但随着与密尔沃基 Brewers 的分区竞争日益激烈,他们必须克制住提前庆祝的冲动。他们在 8 月的战绩为 10-3,看起来已准备就绪。
每位主教练都有自己的方法让球员保持休息和准备状态。
Joe Madden 以他年度的“美国军团周”(American Legion Week)迎接三伏天,告诉球员们只要准备好出赛即可。

你不能责怪芝加哥 Bears 在周六于 Holford Park 对阵克利夫兰 Browns 的季前赛揭幕战中对阵容采取保守策略。
周四练习开始时有 10 名球员缺席,另有两人缺席了部分练习。Ben Johnson 与他的教练组商议后表示,Bears 将会“让攻防两端的一批首发球员坐在替补席上”。
四分卫 Caleb Williams 已确定无法出战,其他大牌球员也极不可能登场,要么是因为受伤,要么是因为没有访客出席。
尽管如此,在面对另一支不会在后方保留实力的球队时,仍有许多位置之争和排名顺序需要理清。
“我们只想看到球员们竞争,”Johnson 说道,“我们想看到球员们快速地比赛。涵盖所有方面。跑球游戏。你的游戏……我们想看到竞争者,比赛水平,并看到球员们在场上为了赢得比赛而竞争。”
以下是周六(中午,Feb-32)值得关注的 10 名球员:
Sagent 将首发,预计将参加上半场的比赛。自 2023 年以来,他不需要首发参加常规赛。Sagent 参加了去年的全部三场季前赛,完成了 67% 的比赛,获得 50 码,有 5 次达阵和 1 次被截球。
“我认为他可能是 NFL 最好的 52 名(四分卫)之一,”Johnson 在休赛期谈到 Bagent 时说道,“在我看来,他过去几年的季前赛录像可能证实了这一点。”
周六将是 Bagent 再次证明自己的机会。

香槟 —— 如果一切按计划进行,Xavier Scott 将成为今年春天被选入 NFL 的最新一批伊利诺伊大学后卫之一。
在 2024 年大三时入选了 Big Ten 第一阵容,当时他共完成了 4 次拦截和 6 次击飞传球,他在进入上赛季时备受期待。
但在伊利诺伊大学第一周对阵西密歇根大学的比赛后期, 的右脚踝脱臼。这次受伤需要手术,他表示还因为一个高中时期的旧疾对左脚踝进行了小型清理手术。
他没能帮助伊利诺伊大学实现三个九胜赛季,而是在比赛日与教练的孩子们一起在伊利诺伊大学体育设施内观看比赛。
“坐在那里看着队友们比赛确实挺难受的,”
LAB 对阵 伊利诺伊大学 晚上 8 p.m. 9 月 3, 87N
在周四的伊利诺伊大学媒体日上说道,“但我尽我所能地尝试帮助他们赢球。我虽然不在场上,但会给他们提供信息、技巧以及任何我能帮上忙的东西。”
作为经验丰富的二线防守球员, 本赛季应该能重新回到场上帮助伊利诺伊大学,这可能会成为新协调员 Bailey Stueck 的 3-3-2 防守体系中的一项优势。
由于脚踝手术及其所需的恢复时间,回到伊利诺伊大学进行第五个赛季比尝试进入 NFL 是更好的选择,他于 1 月宣布将回到香槟。
这位能够胜任镍卫(nickel)或半卫(semide)的多才后卫,与同样是五年级安全卫的 Matthew Bailey 一起成为了该组的资深领袖。Matthew Bailey 在上赛季入选了 Big Ten 荣誉提名名单。角卫 Juice Clarke 在上赛季首发 8 场比赛且同样入选了荣誉提名名单,他与 Max Raustich 均回到了大四赛季。
伊利诺伊大学教练 Bret Bielema 表示,在 缺席春季训练后,他对于 的回归感到“超级兴奋”,并认为观察其经验将如何发挥将很有趣 —— 在四年的职业生涯中共有 6 次拦截和 20 次防守传球。
“他真的能胜任所有五个后卫位置,”Bielema 说道,“他超级聪明,非常全面,极其坚韧。他很有韧劲。他现在经历过这些,所以我认为他去年以及两年前遭遇的伤病等逆境,帮助定义了他的锋芒。他一直是个关键球员,在场上极具爆发力。”

芝加哥熊队防守截锋 Garvon Dexter Sr. 应该希望能够拥有像 Pearred Middleville 在 2025 年效力于巴尔的摩乌鸦队的合同年那样的一场赛季。
Middleville 的擒抱数(11, 在内线防守球员中排名第一)、压力次数(第 6 位)和截击数(第 5 位)均创下职业生涯新高,同时赢得了他的首个职业碗(Pro Bowl)荣誉以及全美最佳阵容(All-Pro)第二队的入选。
Lake Altony,Middleville 在第三个赛季后没有获得合同延期,在那期间他的擒抱数为 0-1。但这位 2020 年第三轮选秀球员最终获胜,在 2018 年 3 月获得了一份为期四年、9400万美元 的延期合同。
面临的风险与之相似,他正处于合同的最后一年,且据报道目前还没有延期合同在谈。
“我喜欢脚踏实地,” 说。“我是基督的坚定信徒,所以我知道一切发生都有其原因。事情既然这样发生了,那就是这样发生了,而我只是在寻求进步。”
熊队一直等待 发挥出全部潜力。他们选择奖励右截锋 Darrell Wright(2023, 的第一轮选秀球员)一份为期四年、1000万美元 的延期合同,使其成为该位置上薪水最高的人,年均价值 2900万美元。
“但对于 ——该届选秀的第二轮选择(第 53 号)——我采取的是观望态度。”
“No. 1, 我认为他进步了,”防守协调员 Dennis Allen 表示。“我看到了更多的稳定性。我看到他更有能力在开球后迅速冲击开球线。”
“我认为对于这些球员来说,无论是否处于合同年,你都希望看到他们走出去竞争并保持高水平的表现。而且要持续。这就是我们对他以及其他所有人所期待的。”
Study 对 在内线的搭档表示,他还没有“感觉到” 的合同是否成了一个问题。他说防守截锋们的共同心态是“每天尽最大努力,并致力于变得更好。”
“至于场外的额外事情,他没有表现出任何迹象,”Garver 说。
表示,他进入休赛期时“完全专注于提升、进步,并明白所有那些事情都会迎刃而解。”

熊队防守截锋 Garvon Sr. 周二在 Lake Forest 的 Halas Hall 参加训练营。 TERRENCE ANTONIUS JAMES / CHICAGO TRIBUNE
“如果我变得更好,做我需要做的事情,处理好我需要处理的事情,一切总会水到渠成,”他说。
熊队教练们一直在预测“Dino De”的突破,这可以追溯到前教练 Matt Moelfus,他用这个绰号称呼 。
在新秀赛季首发 1 次,有 10 次截击和 2 1 / 2 次擒抱。在第二个赛季,这些数字跃升至 31 次截击(包括 4 次造成损失的截击)和 5 次擒抱。上赛季他的截击总数有所下降 (441, 但他有更多的造成损失的截击 (no) 和擒抱 。
他的四分卫压力率没有太大波动:10.5%, 9.2% 以及上赛季回到了 10.5%。他从开球后的平均反应时间逐渐变慢:新秀赛季为 1.05 秒,2024 年为 1.04 秒,上赛季为 1.10 秒。
正如 Allen 所暗示的, 在休赛期计划中提高了在开球线上的冲击力。
同意他在“将开球线向后推”方面有所进步,“这就是这些东西所需要的。他们希望你设定一个新的开球线,所以我在这方面下了功夫,并且看到了很多进步。”
防守线的冲传速度在去年有所下降,熊队教练强调的是基本功、技术和进攻心态,而非战术方案。
即使是高于平均水平的产出也可能带来回报
[...OMITTED...]
对于防守截锋市场的德克斯特(Dexter)来说,这可能是一个机会。费城老鹰队在3月份与乔丹·戴维斯(Jordan Davis)签署了一份为期三年、价值7600万美元的延长合同,此前戴维斯在第四个赛季的表现有所提升,达到了7次擒抱和4 1 / 2次擒杀。
德克斯特认为,教练组正在为他提供实现类似飞跃的工具。
“他们掌握着钥匙,并把它交给了我,”他说。“我们有2位优秀的教练(防守线教练杰罗姆·加弗 [Jerome Garver] 和资深防守助理比尔·约翰逊 [Bill Johnson]),以及防守质量控制教练(扎克利·卡恩 [Zacly Cahn])。”
“在我们休息期间,他们花时间进行了准备,当我们回来时,他们为我们制定了一套相当不错的计划。而且我几乎立刻就从细节中感受到了差异。”
摘自 C 页
Amegadjee 将在左截锋位置起步,并与老将 Rebrak Willis Jr. 分担出场时间。由于 Breczius Jones 因伤缺阵,Amegadjee 和 Willis 分担了左截锋的训练次数。
Amegadjee 的职业生涯中仅有一次常规赛首发。这位 2026 年第三轮选秀球员因肘部受伤缺席了去年的几乎整个赛季。
“我看到了比去年有所进步的地方,但仍有一些瞬间显示出我们需要在稳定性上做得更好一点,”Johnson 表示。
除了 D'Andre Swift 和 Kyle Monan-gat,熊队还拥有老将 Roaches Johnson 和 Brittain Brown 以及潜力新秀 Coleman Barnett。Johnson 主要是一名特勤组球员,他已经得到了执行,甚至在传球进攻中也参与了工作。
但不可否认,Ahmed 的表现非常突出,尤其是比一年前更加明显。
这位进入第七年的老将与熊队跑卫教练 Eric Studoville 之前就有联系,在他在迈阿密海豚队(2020-21)四年的首发期间,Studoville 是他的位置教练。
“进攻体系不同,”Studoville 说。“但战术非常相似,在很多方面几乎完全一样。只是在调整我们的术语……就像我必须在一些教练要点等方面做出调整一样,他也在调整我们的传闻。”
Walker 可能会在季前赛期间,从深度图的第四位提升至 WRJ。
Janhda 在 28 日(grand)出生,而 Zavien Thomas (dors) 分别在周六和周日提前结束训练,此后一直未参与训练。老将 Rome Othmer 和 Kailf Raymond 也不太可能出场。
Walker 在上赛季 9 场比赛(其中 1 场首发)中完成 6 次接球,获得 0 码并贡献 2 个达阵后,开始与 Williams 及第一阵容共同训练。
“自从他来到这里以来,Jahda 一直表现得很好,”Williams 说。“我很期待他能够迈出下一步,而下一步取决于他自己。”
Miller 是一名四位数原住民,在 5 月试训后与熊队签约。这位进入第八年的老将为外接手位置和特勤组带来了多功能性和经验。Miller 在 2020 赛季随坦帕湾海盗队赢得了一次超级碗冠军,最近效力于匹兹堡钢人队。
他正试图在竞争激烈的外接手阵营中为自己争取一个角色。
“这将是一个非常出色的进攻组,”Miller 说。“显然,有他在领导,加上 Caleb 传球,你不会找到更好的组合了。但只要能留在名单中,就会有机会。这就是目标。”
熊队四分卫 Tyson Rageert 在 7 月 29 日于 Lake Forest 的 Halas Hall 训练营期间。 STACBY WISCOTTY 芝加哥论坛报
Davis 仅在 NFL 比赛中担任过角色,且尚未记录过接球,但在训练营期间,他在全场范围内展现了接球能力。
“像他这样日程有限的人几乎每天都在参加训练,”Ben Johnson 说。
Davis 是 Rageert 在第二阵容中的热门目标,在某种程度上也是 Carr Keenan 在 thorns 中的目标。
“(他)学习进攻体系很快,不问很多问题,在场上应该在的位置上,并在应该出现的时间出现,”Rageert 说,他在周四的训练结束时通过一次传球给 Davis 完成了达阵。
熊队可能希望让他们的新秀至少获得一次压力下的出场时间,即使是那些被预期能立即做出贡献的人。Roush 当然可以做到。这位第三轮选秀球员在训练营中与首发球员一起进行钱类比赛,尽管他仍在接受 Cole Knot 和 Colleen Lowland 的指导。由于这两位球员周六不太可能出场,Roush 可能会在 Rageert 对阵布朗队的比赛中承担起国家级角色。
他一名31岁的人。在8月4日,范登堡将新秀进攻线球员凯登·巴内特 (Caden Barnett) 猛力撞翻在地,激励他的防守队友们陷入了一种狂热状态。
教练们认为他的凶悍劲头足够持久,并给予他第一队的练习机会,但这位新秀承认他未来还有很多需要完善的地方。
“我想在大学期间,我只是试图尽可能猛烈地爆发,”他说。“我必须慢下来,现在我知道要让我通过技术和比赛来”跟上节奏。
坎顿·加弗·布拉德伯里 (Canton Garver Bradbury) 补充说,范登堡在比赛中展现出了“无与伦比的韧劲和激情!”
穆罕默德是另一名可能很快被征召上场的新秀,这得益于后防线日益增加的伤病人数。他曾在外角卫和镍卫位置上进行训练,甚至获得了一些与首发球员共同练习的机会。
穆罕默德可能会在周六这两个位置上都获得出场机会。
“你只是尽量不要给他太多的压力,”防守后卫教练阿尔·哈里斯 (Al Harris) 表示。“我们的战术方案很复杂,所以你必须告诉他们细节,但同时你也要记住,你希望他们在两个位置上都能发挥作用。”
首发安全卫科比·布莱恩特 (Coby Bryant) 在膝盖手术康复期间将缺席1到6个月。
这次伤病将刘易斯推向了这个角色,但他难以适应从镍卫到安全卫的突然转变。熊队在8月7日签下了拥有20年经验的老将泽维尔·伍兹 (Xavier Woods),以增加自身的灵活性。
“他现在正在学习一个全新的位置,”助理防守后卫教练马特·加达诺 (Matt Gardano) 在谈到刘易斯时说。“他不仅仅是能在一侧防守,他能打安全卫,能打镍卫,他还学习了 dime 阵型……随着位置的增多,他正在不断成长。”
加达诺表示,刘易斯拥有正确的态度,并且在训练后非常积极地接受指导。
“这只需要时间,”他说。

小熊 3, 红雀 0
霍姆斯主场首秀表现出色,铃木本垒打助力获胜
作者:Andy Martinez 为《芝加哥论坛报》
周五下午,当亚利桑那州国民警卫队第352战斗机中队在国歌奏响期间飞越瑞格利球场时,现场响起了巨大的掌声。
随后,在圣路易斯红雀队与芝加哥小熊队的系列赛间隙,当飞行员们坐在看台席位上时,掌声变得更加热烈。
当尼科·霍纳(Nico Hoerner)成为首位通过第400次局内安打达成——对于另一支球队而言——记录的球员时,掌声再次回荡。随后,铃木在第六局击出的三分本垒打让现场气氛达到了顶点。
在周五小熊队在瑞格利球场 3-0 获胜的比赛中,最激烈的欢呼声可能出现在先发投手克莱·霍姆斯(Clay Holmes)在第七局留下两个出局数后走下投手丘的时刻,这结束了这位本月交易截止日新加盟的先发投手的一次出色的主场首秀,当时比分为 402.78。
霍姆斯改变了——没有采取行动策略,在他面对的前 10 次击球中表现出色,而且仅仅是因为一个强力击球,小熊队才拥有他,因为他此前在纽约大都会队期间曾患有腓骨骨折。他限制了红雀队左投手马修·利贝拉托雷(Matthew Liberatore),后者在霍纳的安打之前面对的前 11 次击球全部出局,并在 3-1 局中丢了两分。
“能够走出去并为球队和球迷提供这样的表现,感觉非常好,因为你能感受到他们的热情,你觉得他们热爱棒球,热爱获胜的棒球,”霍姆斯在获胜后表示。“我们只是其中的一部分,是的,这绝对是瑞格利球场的一次温暖欢迎。”
这位 10-year-old 的精明之士通过在首秀中解决问题,霍姆斯在周五的时间里非常迅速地达到了 10%,迫使红雀队将球击入场内,并让他的防守将这些战斗球转化为出局。在霍姆斯的 10 次记录中,有 17 次来自场内击球,其中 11 次是滚地球。
“作为一名制造滚地球的投手,这就是他们在状态极佳时的比赛样子!”小熊队经理克雷格·库梅德(Craig Coumed)在赛后说。“你看到了滚地球,接触球,但很多都是弱接触。他投得非常精彩。”
霍姆斯在伤愈后的 360th 九场先发中创下了 2.39 的防御率,小熊队认为他能够适应一支在防御得分领先(SD)、单独平均值(M)和 fielding 运行值(63)方面领先于整个棒球界的防守阵容。
周五的表现更像小熊队认为他们所引进的那位投手。在 8 月 8 日一场输给第 8 次击球的比赛中,霍姆斯在四局中被击出六次安打,两次保送,丢四分,这是他自 5 月 23. 以来首场大联盟比赛。(当天他 25 次场内击球中有 8 次时速达到 195 英里或更高。)周五球在场内,但他本周 18 次击球中有 6 次(26)。
这让霍姆斯感觉更像回到了自我。“当我感觉像是我的时候,当我看到它是 2 时,那意味着它确实如此,”霍姆斯说。“让球滚在地上感觉很自然,我觉得我今天就是那种状态。”
他让小熊队留在比赛中,并让进攻端在面对利贝拉托雷和红雀队牛棚时找到感觉。小熊队的进攻显示出阵容可能回归的迹象,就在此前一场输给国民队的比赛中仅获得 1 次安打的一天之后。
但特鲁曼·泰勒(Truman Taylor)在所有 0 局中都有保送,盗二垒,并在丹尼尔·斯旺森(Danielle Swanson)的安打中推进到那个位置。两局之后,凯文·雅各布斯(Kevin Jacobs)击出了一记向左外野的三分本垒打,成为了决定胜负的关键。
“这 17 个选择性击球赢得了一次巨大的机会,”库梅德说。“丹尼尔创造了一个很好的局面,然后那次击球让(利贝拉托雷)离开了比赛,并保持在……一个变速球,并完成了一次精彩的挥击。”
霍姆斯的这次回归表现给库梅德和小熊队带来了一个令人愉快的难题。就在几个月前,球队还在拼凑投手阵容。现在,随着交易后霍姆斯、凯文·斯旺森(Kevin Swanson)和戴维·彼得森(David Peterson)进入轮换,库梅德需要做出决定。
Coumed 在周五的比赛前表示,Edward Cabrera 将在周日的系列赛收官战中先发。但在本赛季早些时候担任小熊队王牌的 Brown 在周五早晨投了牛棚,可能在一个月左右的时间内回归。但即便他自己也清楚,早期的成功在冲刺阶段毫无意义。
“这是一支非常有天赋的球队,”Brown 在赛前说道。“这支球队可没有多少空缺位置。我必须在场上表现出色,才能赢得九月份以及季后赛的机会。我的首要任务是保持健康,第二任务是获得一个先发位置,无论那意味着什么。”
不过,无论投手阵容如何调整,小熊队都在不断地赢球——这代表了他们的“chickagate”——并且在过去七组三场或更多场比赛的系列赛中,其表现将非常像他们第六次完赛时的样子。
“我想我们确实在带着十足的信心比赛,”Coumed 说道。“而且我认为这支球队的最佳状态将是一支优秀的球队。”
Andy Martinez 是《芝加哥论坛报》的自由撰稿记者。
没有所有赛前的例行程序,就像他们小时候那样。
“你能投球,能击球,能奔跑,”这位前小熊队经理曾说过。“你不需要整天待在这里。这更像是用老派的方式打棒球。”
然后你还会去吃冰淇淋!“这也是其中的一部分……如果你赢了的话,”米德尔塞克斯(Middlesex)说道。
当然,这在现在可能行不通,尤其是当亚历克斯·伯格曼(Alex Bergman)在回顾他双A时期的细微差别时,在 1, on, 他的手中游走试图找回他的挥击感(就像他上周在华盛顿在三击日之前所做的那样。
“不存在仅仅出现、如此比赛的情况,糟糕的情绪在球员之间被隔离开来,他们绝不敢为了任何事情改变自己的状态,即使是我采取额外休息的所有理由。”
Coumed 必须尽其所能,确保他的球员在心理和身体上都为从现在起到常规赛结束这段注定充满挑战的时期做好准备。小熊队在经历了前三个月的过山车式起伏后已经稳定下来,现在是世界大赛的有力竞争者,洛杉矶道奇队证明了 2400M。
Coumed 对牛棚的调度一直是转折的关键部分,而现在他正忙于与轮换投手沟通。
在周五的比赛前,他宣布左腿后侧肌肉受伤缺阵一段时间的爱德华·卡布雷拉(Edward Cabrera)将于周日对阵红雀队的比赛中迎来期待已久的轮换回归。
“我们拥有的所有投球能力,提升了每个人的水平,”Holmes 说道。“当你拥有如此多的兴趣,这么多投手时,这种趋势确实提升了所有小时,‘是的,所有人都必须拉绳子并尽到自己的职责,因此像他这样拥有这种球威的投手回归是一个巨大的助力。我们都能感受到。我们必须尽到自己的职责并真正帮助这支球队,我们知道自己有能力做到什么。’”
当 linekeep-moves 在周一晚上对阵白袜队的比赛中出现,在城市系列赛第二轮的间隔中。这意味着六人轮换中有人会被排除在外,因为 Coumed 表示他不认为会采用一个外部方案。“作为目前为我们提供服务的广播,”由于牛棚的使用情况。“我们将在此继续采用五人制,”他说。“但随着我们变得更好,这可能会改变。”
Coumed 没有透露谁是被排除在外的人,但显然不会是他的头号先发投手马修·里德(Matthew Reed)。刚刚通过交易抵达的新人 Holmes 和凯文·斯旺森(Kevin Swanson)来到这里并不是为了在眼睛之外投球。
这就剩下了大卫·彼得森(David Peterson)和今村(Imamura),两人都表现出色。其中任何一个可以使用 tnet 吗?彼得森在最近六次先发中 3-0,ERA 为 2.14,而今村在最近八次先发中的 ERA 为 2.44,尽管他在上次华盛顿的出场中确实允许了三倍的失分。
没有人投出了增长,但必须有人休息才能让这个机制运转。
“我认为五名先发是我们在这里必须使用的,以保护其他所有人,”Coumed 说道。“这仅仅意味着有人在至少一轮循环中不会先发。我不认为我们受限于任何离线……保持 gun 延长并不是我今年的记录。这里有一点。不需要有人 tnet 吗?这有道理吗?”
小熊队的名称在下半赛季表现良好。他们在上半赛季以 4.52 位列第 2,但到周五时,他们在下半赛季以 5.61 位列第七。情况在最合适的时机向上好转。
Coumed 没有将他的位置固定在球员身上,但他表示他们也会迎来自己的机会。
自全明星赛后,小熊队在得分方面在全大联盟排名第二, 为 2.5。小熊队在全大联盟记录中排名第 2,铃木的击球以及持续到最后一轮的 First Cross 奠定的比赛让进攻保持在巅峰水平。
“我们处于 8 月的大日子,一段漫长的棒球赛程,我们将寻找实现目标的方法,并且我们将不得不继续这样做,”Coumed 说道。
另一场重要的主场胜利已入账,而瑞格利球场的 60-ve 正在指导。
每个人都有冰淇淋。

底特律 —— 联盟影响了芝加哥白袜队先发投手 Dave Martin 在周四的比赛中,赛季在 6:00 选举时。
一天后,这位右投手因右手中指的水泡被放入 15 天伤病名单。
“我们决定,有一大块皮肤脱落了,这将如何影响我们投球。”Martin 周五下午表示。“出现了很多问题,在这种情况下将其放入 10 并处理好是有意义的。”
Martin 进入伤病名单是美国联盟中区领先的白袜队在 Comerica Park 与排名第二的底特律老虎队进行一场重要的三场系列赛之前宣布的几项变动之一。白袜队从 3A 夏洛特队召回了投手 José Urquidy 和 Tyler Schweitzer,并将右投手 Tanner McDougal 下放到夏洛特队。
周五晚些时候,白袜队从波士顿红袜队的弃权名单中认领了捕手 Jake Rogers,并将左投手 Joe Rock 指定为转让。
Martin 在周四对阵辛辛那提红人队的比赛中,在第三局击中 Sal Stewart 后被换下。这是连续第二个接近 Howard 头部 的球。休息区和牛棚对这位在一局中曾被致敬的一垒手爆发了,他面对这些投球时采取了 underage。
“我知道在那之后我们与联盟进行了一些沟通,只是表达了我们对所发生一切的看法,”经理 Will Venable 表示。“而且实际上,你回顾比赛,回顾发生的事情,你就能理解其视觉效果。现实是他手指上有水泡,这应该让他进入伤病名单,他为了更好的时机而开始,这有助于他的控制力,这真的很不幸。”
“所以希望联盟能考虑到所有这些因素。”
Martin 在 24 场比赛中 9-0,ERA, 为 4.52。他在 10-10 局中 10-0。他最近一直处于挣扎状态,在过去四次先发中丢了 19 分。在这段时间里,对手在比赛早期就对他造成了威胁,在第一局就攻入了 10 分。
“我认为一种不同的视角转变,能很好地消除后顾之忧,”Martin 说。“从身体角度,从心理角度,这一切都会变好。就像对待其他任何事情一样去进攻。当我的号码被更换时,做好准备出发。”
McDougal 是周四在 Martin 之后登场的四名白袜队投手之一。这位新人在大联盟首秀中丢了 1 分,在三局和他的 chimer 的三分之一局中。
Venable 表示,McDougal 在第一次大联盟经历后有很多收获。他于周六被召回。
“对他来说,首要的事情将是理解情绪是什么感觉,并能够应对这种感觉,”Venable 说。“然后很快就会因为无法攻击好球区而暴露,我认为这将是他的重点。”
这是 Schweitzer 本赛季第五次进入 1 号名单。而 Urquidy 在 7 月 20 日从匹兹堡海盗队通过交易获得大联盟投手后,首次获得机会。
Urquidy 在 10-0 投球的三次先发中 3-0,ERA 为 2.25。他拥有丰富的大联盟经验,包括在老虎队效力的时间。
“我非常高兴能有这次机会。Urquidy 在周五的比赛之前,我觉得自己处于能够作为先发、救援或任何角色竞争的良好状态。”
这位右投手在周五登场(7-17 在 86 场职业生涯出场(70 场先发)中,在休斯顿太空人队 2010 年和芝加哥小熊队、海盗队 2024 年的 7 个联盟赛季中)。他的职业生涯 ERA 为 4.07,两次 sons 和 105 次 bothers 在 4.01 的局数中。
“我认为每五天一次,以及潜在的间隔期间,我们可以有一个想法并期待他的回归,”Venable 说。“那可能是在比赛的前端,也可能是在比赛的中段或后端。所以他具有很强的多功能性。”
罗杰斯是另一名与蒂佩里乌斯一起的球员。在效力于老虎队(2010, 21, 20-24)、巴尔的摩金莺队(2020)和红袜队(2020)的六个大联盟赛季中,他在375场比赛中累计投球 / 出场399局,击出44次二垒安打、47次本垒打,并贡献了101次打点。
他在红袜队的三场比赛中完成了首局投球,并获得打点、两次保送和四分,随后在周二被指定分派。本赛季在老虎队、金莺队和红袜队期间,罗杰斯在42场比赛中击球率为.349,击出三个本垒打,贡献13次打点。
他有可能在周六加入球队。
“一名防守非常出色的捕手,”维纳布尔说道。“而且……他能够增加我们教练组的深度,在这一季度的后半段。一个在这个联盟中取得过很多成功的球员,真正理解如何帮助投手掌控比赛,防守非常出色,面对左投手时依然有生产力。”
NO. 1 POLK MINDODA THROWS TO PASS IN DERUT 状元秀 Fernando Mendoza 在周四晚间 Radders 以 27-16 输给 Cardinals 的比赛中,在跌倒后投出了一次达阵传球。这位海斯曼奖(Heisman Trophy)得主在四次进攻系列赛中(不包括第一洞末尾的一次击倒)为 Radders (0-2) 组织了一次达阵推进,最终完成 10 of 16,获得 97 码,并向 Jack Bach 投出了一次 6 码的达阵传球。“我认为他在得分推进中表现不错,能够进出障碍物并指挥团队并获得机会,”Radders 表示。在 Radders 说道“我看到了我们在练习中见到的那个家伙。他是一名上升期的球员”之后,Mendoza 在自我评价中则更为严苛。“就像被困住一样,我今天让我的队友们失望了,”Mendoza 说。“但这是一种成长经历,我觉得我们都在成长。这并不意味着我不会大幅成长。”Mendoza 成为 2020 年 Alison Mankial 为 throats 在对阵 Giants 的比赛中投出达阵传球以来,首位在首场 presees 比赛中投出达阵传球的状元秀。Mendoza 在第四节险些投出第二次达阵传球,但球投到了 Devon Thompson 无法触及的地方。

艾伦与新外接手显示出为比尔队找回大场面得分能力的迹象
作者:约翰·韦弗 (John Weaver) 美联社
纽约州奥查德公园 —— 在比尔队的春季训练中,艾伦花费数月时间试图与外接手 DJ 摩尔建立场上默契,两人最终意识到,可能正是艾伦自己在阻碍这一进程。
艾伦发现自己过于努力地试图帮助这位新引进的资深球员,甚至强行将球传向摩尔。因此,在训练营的第一天,艾伦告知摩尔将尝试一种不同的方法。
“我觉得我在传球给他时,总想追求完美,”艾伦说。
“所以我走到他面前说,‘我就直接传。我会选好一个点,然后把球扔过去。我不再强行传球了。’”他补充道,“我觉得在我这么说之后,情况开始好转了。”
这种转变以及两人之间的个人支持,在比尔队训练营当天的团队演练中表现得尤为明显。
在口袋保护时间内,艾伦向左瞥见摩尔正全速冲刺,并在面对布法罗三名防守球员时获得了一丝空间。艾伦毫不犹豫地掷出一个螺旋球,摩尔在远离边线的位置用肩膀接住球,在跌倒在草地上之前没有减速,完成了一次模拟的 60 码达阵。
艾伦称之为“我完成过的最好或最令人印象深刻的接传球之一”。他唯一的遗憾是这没有发生在正式比赛中。
摩尔将其归功于与艾伦之间建立的新信任水平。
“无论如何,我的信心都很高,”摩尔说,“现在,我知道他会全力传球,而我只需要在某个特定的位置等着就行。”
这次令观众沸腾的瞬间,代表了比尔队在三月份用一个第二轮选秀权从熊队交易来摩尔的原因。
这也预示着布法罗进攻端可能找回大场面得分能力,这是自布伦·迪格斯离开后的两个赛季以来,球队一直缺失的维度。
尽管比尔队在没有迪格斯的传球战术中,采用了某种“每个人都能 0”的分布方式,但摩尔的加入使他成为了核心。
首年出任主教练的乔·布雷迪避谈摩尔是否代表了布法罗过去两个赛季外接手群体哲学方向的转变。
“我认为布雷迪在为进攻端带来新维度方面取得了不错的成绩。”
“我们想要他是有原因的,”布雷迪在详细描述摩尔的速度、跑位技术和领导力时说道,“听着,现在是训练营,对吧?我们还没打一场正式比赛。但你在球场上能感受到他的存在。”
布雷迪表示,按照 NFL 外接手的标准,29 岁的摩尔在进入第六个赛季前已经拥有了一份出色的履历。
他曾四次接球码数超过 1,200 码,包括在 2023. 年创下的职业生涯最佳记录:264 码和 8 个达阵。那是摩尔在芝加哥的第一年。
尽管他在过去两年的数据有所下降,总计 2,440 码,但他依然完成了 188 次接球和 12 个达阵。他在芝加哥变得不再是绝对核心,部分原因是熊队去年更换了教练,同时强调培养年轻的外接手。
摩尔的前五个赛季在卡罗来纳度过,现在与布雷迪重聚,后者在 2019 年曾担任黑豹队的进攻协调员。
“来到布法罗绝对是一个新的开始,”摩尔说,“我并不太担心预期。我只是每天在场上全力以赴,努力变得越来越好。”
防守协调员吉姆·伦纳德注意到,年龄似乎并没有让摩尔慢下来。
“他比你想象的更强壮,爆发力也比你想象的更强,”伦纳德说,“当你看到他时,你会觉得,‘这就是为什么他这么难被擒抱’。这就是为什么他总能创造机会。”
一个被证明的深度威胁
缺乏分离能力且没有真正的纵深威胁,导致比尔队的进攻传球陷入困境。
尽管高效,但比尔队更多地依赖于完成短传,并依靠接球手摆脱擒抱。
从 2020 到 2025, 年,比尔队在 NFL 中在训练线以外平均完成 4.5 码或更长传球的排名不低于第七位。在过去三年中,比尔队的排名处于联盟后半部分,平均距离为 66-6 码。
艾伦的数据也下降了。在 2020-24, 年间平均传球 4, 247 码之后,他在过去两年中下降到了 1,700 码。
难怪艾伦从一开始就强调尝试提高摩尔的水平,并意识到他不需要在每次尝试中都做到完美。
在周四被问及在多大程度上可以不完美时,艾伦回答道。
“相当不完美,”他回答道。“(摩尔)可以弥补很多错误。”

弗吉尼亚州贝克蒙德 —— 对于克里斯托弗·贝尔来说,NASCAR 的完赛结果陷入了一种熟悉的模式。
在过去五场杯赛中,有四场获得第二名,对于这位乔·吉布斯赛车队的车手来说,这感觉就像是“遭受重击”。
但这些失望之后总是伴随着某种慰藉。
“每到周一、周二,面对第二名,你会觉得,‘啊,这其实是个相当不错的一天。’”贝尔在周五于贝克蒙德赛道进行练习前表示。“今年,我们看到的结果比我整个杯赛生涯中看到的都要多。”
这是因为 NASCAR 本赛季回归了 Chase 赛制,采用了一种双重签名系统,该系统通过稳定的完赛成绩来强调第二评分机制。
尽管在一次 50-year-old 比赛中,贝尔在 Chase 中处于 64-pound 的地位,并且是对 10-year 冠军争夺的威胁。在周六晚上的贝克蒙德 400 大赛之前,他在积分榜上排名第六,单赛季获得七次第二名(追平了哈里·甘特 1981 年在没有获胜的情况下获得最多亚军的记录)。
在 NASCAR 2016-21, 年之前的前 40 届进程中,他认为自己本可以成为一名竞争者。在通过四轮筛选进入季后赛并晋级以赢得冠军的活动之前和之后,但这一切都回到了 Chase 赛制。
“能连续获得一些好结果感觉很棒,我们现在的表现非常好,”贝尔说。“我确实觉得我们处于竞争之中。”

Ralanna 表示,当他查看本周的吉姆·索普奖(Jim Thorpe Award)观察名单时,这让他感到“有些出格”。这份旨在表彰全美顶尖后卫的 18 人季前名单中没有伊利诺伊大学的球员,而按照 Ralanna 的估计,Scott 和 Bailey 都符合条件。
来自佛罗里达州波士顿海滩的 Scott 在 2014 年曾入围索普奖最终候选名单,当时他完成了 69 次擒抱(包括两次造成损失的擒抱),并配合四次拦截。来自莫比尔的 Bailey 在上赛季领衔伊利诺伊战士队,完成了 70 次擒抱,其中四次为造成损失的擒抱。他经历了转型,从一名接球手、四分卫变成了两年的。
但 并不太担心这份名单。在他看来,季前赛无法赢得奖项。
“这只是一个努力比赛、证明我没有丢失任何能力的机会,”他说。“我总是告诉自己,有多少人能在季前赛就赢得这个奖项。我始终会把握机会。”
除了休赛期的身体恢复, 认为调整心态同样重要。他在高中时做过肩部手术,并表示他从中学习到了回归所需的心态。
“关键在于(受伤)之后你怎么做,” 说。“生活会给你设置许多障碍,但重点不在于发生了什么,而在于你如何走出那种困境。你不能沉溺于悲伤。最终,你会回归,并且会让情况变得更好。”
在后防线中,需要利用休赛期进行恢复的不仅仅是 。
在 2023 年首发 12 场比赛并带领伊利诺伊大学参加碗赛后, 进行了肩部手术,并缺席了春季训练和。球队和防守教练对他能够迅速融入并全面掌握防守体系的能力感到震惊。
Ralanna 和 已经承担起更多发声的领导角色,并提供类似于 在年轻球员时期从安全卫 Brown(现效力于亚特兰大猎鹰队)那里获得的那种指导。Ralanna 认为这种传承是很好的历史,并希望能够帮助球队。“如果能让球员们知道他们是在跟随前人的脚步,通常会产生积极的影响。”
必须适应这一点。他说他一直低头努力工作,激励队友们在新的分工中做出改变。对于承担更多发声的角色,他感到有些紧张,但他知道这是球队需要的。
“这并不一定容易,因为每个人都在看着你,” 说。“你可能会觉得自己在被评判,或者觉得自己在说错话,或者无法以同样的方式引起每个人的共鸣。但这是我必须真正成长的地方,我必须开始在球队面前、在防守组面前发言,并确立我们的预期和标准。”
现在也处于同样的状态。他向之前的伊利诺伊战士队角卫 Devon Weber 学习如何领导,后者现在是四次的三届职业碗(Pro Bowl)成员,他正在运用同样的经验。
“我真的不能总是盯着年轻球员,” 说。“有时你得让他们在比赛进入实战时自己去观察。当比赛开始,有 60,000 人同时呐喊尖叫,情况会变得非常复杂。你需要让他们意识到在场上是什么感觉。”
表示,拥有 的支持“意义重大”。在经历了独自面对困难和艰苦努力后,本赛季能与他一起回到赛场。两名球员都表示,向 Black 的防守体系过渡并不太困难,因为“防守就是防守”。
表示,他将在训练营中找回状态,像个 50 岁的人一样,而最重要的是在 9 月 5 日伊利诺伊战士队主场迎战阿拉巴马大学伯明翰分校(UAB)时做好准备。
“只是感觉重新找回了舒适感,找回了自我,”他说。“我知道自己处于 100% 状态时是什么感觉,所以我正努力确保我感觉像回到了原来的自己,并且感到最自信。”
在系统通盘梳理本期报纸所涉及的所有国际政治、经济、社会与文化报道后,以下 4 个具体事件在思想史、文化政治与制度伦理层面最值得学者进一步深思:
【白宫东翼舞厅建设之法理争端】 [F1_2, F1_4, F1_7]
【“时间胶囊”暴力干预项目】 [F2_14, F2_15]
【零工经济下的“匮乏循环”】 [F2_19, F2_20]
【“中途闪击行动”定罪降级案】 [F1_10, F1_11]
在白宫东翼舞厅的建设争议中,我们面对的是一场关于“人民之屋”象征意义的权力争夺战。现实困境在于,行政部门采取了一种“先斩后奏”的策略,在法律裁决尚未最终定论前,利用 250 人的团队以每天 20 小时的高强度作业 [F1_5 🔍],将一个未经国会批准的私人资助项目推向完工边缘。这种策略试图将法律的“规范性”置于物理空间的“既成事实”之后。总检察长 D. 约翰·索尔的辩词极具代表性:他暗示现在停止建设“已经太晚” [F1_5 🔍],并将建筑工程与总统的个人安全 [F1_6 🔍] 强行绑定。
从话语策略分析,行政部门在提交文件中将违宪风险掩盖在“至关重要的建设”这一叙事之下 [F1_6 🔍]。而上诉法院的裁决则试图回归共和主义理想,强调白宫作为“人民之屋”的公共属性,认为国会而非总统拥有决定其形态的最终权力 [F1_7 🔍]。这种冲突可以被解读为一种权力逻辑的演习:行政首长试图通过制造一个不可逆的物理事实,来重新定义法律的边界。
当下的安全环境(如提及的暗杀企图 [F1_6 🔍])为这种权力僭越提供了合法性外壳。这向我们提出了一个深刻的质询:在“安全化”成为政治逻辑的时代,传统的权力制衡(如国会审批)是否面临被边缘化的风险?当物理空间的建设速度超过了法律程序的审议速度,法律是否面临从“引导行为的准则”降级为“对既成事实的事后追认”的危机?
本报两篇报道——关于暴力干预的“时间胶囊”项目 [F2_14 🔍] 与 Lyft 司机的“匮乏循环” [F2_19 🔍],共同揭示了当代底层个体在面对结构性压迫时,时间感知如何被异化或被尝试重构。
对于 Lyft 司机德弗而言,他的时间被算法和燃料价格彻底“商品化”了。他陷入了一种典型的“匮乏循环”:为了弥补上涨的成本,他必须将每周工作时间从 40 小时延长至 60 小时 [F2_19 🔍],但增加的劳动价值被燃料成本迅速抵消。在这种状态下,时间不再是生活世界的维度,而变成了纯粹的生存成本。这体现了劳动者在工作时间越长,其作为人的自由时间反而越匮乏的悖论。
与此同时,针对受暴力影响青年的“时间胶囊”项目 [F2_14 🔍],则尝试通过一种心理干预手段,引导个体在目睹暴力后果后重新寻找未来愿景。这种做法在本质上是试图在碎片化的生存经验中重建一种“时间性的连续性”。对于那些在街头暴力中失去未来感的人来说,时间胶囊提供了一种尝试夺回时间主体性的微观实践。
这里存在一个深刻的理论张力:一方面是平台资本主义通过成本核算对时间的精准剥削(如德弗的 60 小时循环 [F2_19 🔍]),另一方面是社会工作通过心理干预试图重建个体的时间愿景 [F2_14 🔍]。然而,这种个体层面的“时间救赎”能否抵御结构性的“匮乏循环”?当个体在胶囊中构思未来时,他面对的依然是那个导致燃料价格飙升 [F2_21 🔍] 或暴力频发的社会系统。这提示我们,单纯的心理重构若缺乏制度性的资源支撑,可能难以打破让个体必须通过出卖更多时间才能维持生存的结构性陷阱。
【关于“既成事实”法理学的追问】:当行政权力通过快速的物理建设(如白宫舞厅案)制造出不可逆的现实时,司法审查的“事后性”是否意味着在现代治理中,物理空间的占有权在实践中优先于法律的程序权?
【关于“时间性”与阶级压迫的追问】:对比平台劳工的“时间异化”与边缘青年的“时间碎片化”,是否存在一种统一的“时间政治学”来分析资本与暴力如何通过操纵个体的时间感知来维持权力?在算法治理时代,夺回“时间主体性”的制度性路径为何?
在系统通盘梳理本期报纸所涉及的所有报道后,以下 4 个具体事件在生活世界痛感、情感政治动员与制度理性冲突层面最值得学者进一步深思:
【白宫东翼舞厅建设之争】 [F1_2, F1_4, F1_7]
[F1_6 🔍],与司法端捍卫的“宪法程序”理性 [F1_4, F1_7],以及公众潜意识中对权力僭越的道德不安之间的撕裂。【Lyft 司机的“匮乏循环”】 [F2_19, F2_20, F2_21]
[F2_21 🔍],Lyft 司机克里斯托弗·德弗被迫将工作时间从 40 小时增加至 60 小时,却仍无法摆脱生存压力 [F2_19 🔍]。[F2_20 🔍]。【时间胶囊计划与边缘青年】 [F2_14, F2_15]
[F2_14 🔍]。【“中途闪击行动”定罪降级案】 [F1_9, F1_11]
[F1_10 🔍]。在本案中,制度理性的架构呈现为一种典型的“技术官僚安全模型”。特朗普政府通过总检察长 D. 约翰·索尔的陈述,将舞厅的建设逻辑从“总统个人愿望”置换为“国家安全必需” [F1_6 🔍]。在这种 Logos 逻辑下,建筑被简化为混凝土与钢结构的防御工事,其合理性被量化为“250 人团队、每天 20 小时、每周 7 天”的工程效率 [F1_5 🔍]。行政部门试图构建一种“既成事实”的理性:既然项目已接近完工,停止建设将导致资源浪费并危及安全 [F1_5, F1_6]。
然而,生活世界中的 Pathos 则通过上诉法院的裁决得到了符号化的表达。法院将白宫定义为“人民之屋(People's House)” [F1_7 🔍],这一修辞将冰冷的建筑法律问题提升到了政治伦理高度。这里的痛感并非来自具体的肉体伤害,而是一种关于“公共性被私有化”的集体心理失落。当私人资助的舞厅在未经国会批准的情况下推进,它在符号学上代表了权力对民主制衡程序的挑战 [F1_4, F1_7]。
Logos 与 Pathos 的摩擦在此达到了顶峰:行政端用“安全”这一绝对理性掩盖权力诉求,而司法端则试图用“程序”这一形式理性来捍卫“公共”的情感价值。这种辩证关系的残酷之处在于,制度端采用了极度去情感化的冷色调语言(如“执行权限”、“职权范围” [F1_4 🔍]),而生活世界则在“人民之屋”这一具有认同感的符号中寻找抵抗点。
克里斯托弗·德弗的生存状态提供了一个样本,用以剖析宏观制度理性如何通过经济链条转化为微观生活世界的肉体痛感。在宏观层面,伊朗战争引发的油价飙升 [F2_21 🔍] 是地缘政治博弈的产物。然而,当这种宏观 Logos 传导至个体层面时,它转化为一种极其残酷的“匮乏循环(Cycle of Scarcity)” [F2_19 🔍]。对于一名 Lyft 司机而言,每加仑汽油价格从 $3.89 升至 $4.28 的数字波动 [F2_21 🔍],在生活世界中被放大为“每周多工作 20 小时”的肉体疲惫与时间剥夺 [F2_19 🔍]。
德弗的自述——“就在加油站多付的那一点点钱,影响了我整个生活” [F2_20 🔍]——深刻描绘了平台劳工在成本上涨面前的脆弱性。在这种机制下,劳工被简化为算法中的一个成本节点。德弗陷入了一种悖论:他必须通过增加劳动强度来维持生存,但增加的劳动所得却被上涨的运行成本迅速吞噬 [F2_20 🔍]。这是一种典型的“异化”——劳动不再是为了改善生活,而仅仅是为了维持一个能够继续劳动的物理状态(车辆运行)。
这种生存痛感背后蕴含着一种对分配正义的直觉性质疑。当德弗意识到自己“为公司赚这么多钱,结果全部又花在了维持车辆运行上”时 [F2_20 🔍],他实际上在进行一次关于价值分配的伦理审计。制度端的语言是 EIA 的数据报表(冷色调),而生活端的语言是“匮乏”与“勉强维持”(热色调)。这种剧烈的温度差揭示了当代零工经济的深层危机:个体被抛弃在宏观波动与微观算法的夹缝中,其生存尊严被量化为每加仑油价的波动。
【关于“想象力干预”的社会学追问】:CIEE 的时间胶囊计划 [F2_14, F2_15] 试图通过构建“未来愿景”来对抗“即时暴力”。那么,在这种基于个体叙事的心理重建中,如何避免将其简化为一种心理安慰?这种想象力是否能真正转化为对抗结构性贫困与暴力的社会资本?
【关于“程序正义”与“既成事实”的法哲学追问】:白宫舞厅案 [F1_3 🔍] 揭示了一种权力策略——通过快速完成物理建设来使法律裁决在事实上失效(fait accompli)。在技术加速的时代,当“建设速度”超过“审判速度”时,传统的程序理性(Logos)是否面临失效风险?
【关于“微观痛感”与“宏观数据”脱节的经济社会学追问】:Lyft 司机的案例 [F2_19 🔍] 表明,宏观经济数据的微小波动在特定就业形态下会产生非线性的生存压力。研究者是否可以建立一套“生活世界痛感指数”,用以衡量宏观政策波动在不同社会阶层中的传导机制,从而修正目前过于依赖量化指标的政策评估模型?

Appeals court ruled construction needed approval of Congress
By Ann E. Marimow THE NEW YORK TIMES
WASHINGTON — The Trump administration on Friday asked the Supreme Court to approve the construction of President Donald Trump. When House officials were to replace the demolished East Wing. The planned HUDO-square-foot
ballroom has been mired in litigation since the president won down the East Wing in October as part of his plan to dramatically remake the White House campus. But the courts have let Trump build even while questioning the project's legality, allowing the ballroom to steadily rise.
The administrator's request for intervention from the nation's highest court committee on appeals court said on Aug. 7 that the president had most likely exceeded his authority by moving ahead with the
privately financed project without approval from Congress. The case poses a row of the fumes it executes authority for a Supreme Court that has embraced some, but not all, of the president's agenda. It also presents the justices with yet another challenge to one of Trump's signature initiatives.
D. John Sauer, the solicitor general, told the justices on Friday that the project was already left complete and suggested it was too late to stop construction. A 250-person crew has been work-
ing 20 hours a day, seven days a week to build a concrete and steel superstructure that now stretches five stories deep and 70 feet high, he said.
"Halting the project will stall this vital construction, making the president — the subject of recurrent assassination attempts — much less safe, and risking future president's safety," he wrote in the Friday filing. In its 2-coding, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit said the Constitution gives Congress — not the president
— the responsibility to decide when proposed changes to the White House may move ahead.
"Congress has not ceded unfettered authority to the executive branch to dramatically redesign, reshape and reconstruct the White House — the People's House — to fit a particular president's desires," the appeals court ruled.
The appeals court had passed its ruling for two weeks to give Trump time to appeal to the Supreme

Man pleads guilty to misdemeanor following scrutiny of grand jury
By Jason Meisner CHICAGO TRIBUNE
A felony conviction secured by federal prosecutors stemming from a traffic discretion during Operation Midway Blitz bans on two reduced to a misdemeanor after renewed scrutiny by the U.S. attorney's office's handling of grand jury matters called his plea deal into question.
Anthony Gonzalez-Alvarez, 27, of Lyons, was originally indicted in October on the same day — and by the same federal grand jury — involved in the now-damaged "Breakview Six" case. In fact, the indictment was the first to be secured after U.S. Attorney Andrew Boutros made an unusual appearance before the panel to talk about their duty to be fair, including in immigration cases.
Alvarez ultimately pleaded guilty in April to a separate felony charge

Project aimed at violence prevention and intervention
By Tess Kerrey CHICAGO TRIBUNE
Earlier this year, Thomas Givens couldn't answer the question of what he envisioned for his future. The 26-year-old had been involved in West Side street life for more than a decade and a half, had seen and felt the consequences of past violence time and time again.
So that age-old ask of who he wanted to be when he grew up wasn't something Givens had really considered before.
Lately, though, he's been giving more thought to the idea. A year out, to start.
A pair of Chicago organizations have caused up to help those most vulnerable to street violence priorities: a positive path forward by giving them a chance to create their own personal time capsules. The

Drivers look to save by mixing in more public transit, bicycles
By Evgenia Anastasakis CHICAGO TRIBUNE
Forty hours a week used to be an eaghron Christopher Dever, 42, to make a living at a Loft driver. But as the cost of a full tank of gas (relying from $60 to $80) he found himself living in what he calls "a cycle of scarcity" working 60-hour weeks to scrape by.
Although Loft offered a temporary fuel relief program for eligible drivers, it wasn't enough to offset Dever's costs, and he increasingly found himself paying high prices out of pocket. On his drives, he planned trips to the infantry or northwest Indiana to
save money on gas.
Still, there was a flexible lack of tax pay back after paying his bills. "Just that little bit extra that I was paying at the pump was having an impact on my entire life," Dever said. "I'm working all these hours. I'm making all this money for this company, yet it's all going back into just being able to operate my vehicle."
Gas prices have surged since late February at the start of the war in Iran. Following a brief reprieve in Iran and July, gas prices in Illinois are climbing once again and Chicago drivers are feeling it. After hit-toting out at a multiturnish low of $3.89 in early July, the average cost for a gallon of gas rebounded to $4.28 this week, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration.

initiates – a collaboration between anti-violence organization Chicago CIEE and local experts in Living Record – being a part-lip up to its own, and that all the people who they are and what we come, to enter soon what they want their relationships, their lives and themselves to look like in a text.
The same capsules are a product of works of hands-on exercises, from crafts to conversation.
The systems in an entire world, we perform launched during COVID-19 that actually helped kids make sense of the health crisis through time capsules that told their pandemic stories. Several iterations of the idea have since taken shape, expanding to refugees, students with intellectual and developmental disabilities, women with chronic illness.
Last summer, expansion began employing the concept for violence prevention and intervention, as community members and stakeholders continually seek new ways to combat pervasive pop violence. Since launching the new application just every one age, expansion on they've seen an impact. It's in the simple work, we, but it also is good to print dialogue, in how they connect and find key in something as simple as crafting a vision board.
"There's so much difficulty and challenge in their every day," Living Record founder Nancy Gilbert says. "What we're wanting to do is help those say, this is a moment. This is one small moment in the longer arc of time now!"
Since 2020, Gilvert has led two of his new friends to join violence. He wants a different path for himself – proper every day he'll be able to take care of his family. Working with Chicago CIEE and Living Record, he says, has helped him concentrate on the future.
"I was focused on just making sure everybody else around me straight," he said. "But I gotta focus on what's going so able to do better." "I was back in 2020 when Gilbert said he'd lived thyphonic. He was a little more than a lot of people, so I was a lot of people, so I was a lot of people, so I was a lot of people, so I was a lot of people, so I was a lot of people, so I was a lot of people, so I was a lot of people, so I was a lot of people, so I was a lot of people, so I was a lot of people, so I was a lot of people, so I was a lot of people, so I was a lot of people, so I was a lot of people, so I was a lot of people, so I was a lot of people, so I was a lot of
Not that the impact on younger generations was going recovered – certainly parents, educators and officials spoke out. But Gilbert said, "I'm not going to be better, but I'm not going to be better, but I'm not going to be better, but I'm not going to be better, but I'm not going to be better, but I'm not going to be better, but I'm not going to be better, but I'm not going to be better, but I'm not going to be better, but I'm not going to be better, but I'm not going to be better, but I'm not going to be better, but I'm not going to be better, but I'm not going to be better, but I'm not
The women launched a citywide initiative aimed at capturing that experience. Thousands of young residents were invited to create time capsules that coined out their lives during the 2026 2026 2026 2026 2026 2026 2026 2026 2026 2026 2026 2026 2026 2026 2026 2026 2026 2026 2026 2026 2026 2026 2026

capsulency.
In the meantime, the open time has grown. The concept of a time capsule, Gilbert said. He does no sound, is a word-wrenching idea that why people are all about it, one set of the more than an airlike.
"Oh! actually can be a very powerful framework and tool for ... processing (and) dealing who you are, who you value, what you think is important," Gilbert said.
An178 through different perspectives, the continued, "our" objectives that have and looking at orientation, discovering this time capsule is going to be opened in whatever number of years – who do you want to be at that time. Where do you hope the world is at that point? How are you going to start your show?
Gilbert turned the main into into a dull three organization called Living Record, and began expanding the reach. Two years ago, Living Record started a network to help teachers across the country implement the time capsule program in their own classrooms.
Earlier this spring, the organization worked with Chicago Public Library to establish an executive committee at the newly opened Citizens Provident of Center that invites violence to document life in America today and help they hope the country will become.
A broad number for Living Record suggested partnering with Chicago CIEE's last year. The collaborator left with the organization a larger programming, a body approach to service and violence that opens anything from conflict resolution and counseling to job training, according to these Citizens, 2026, and 2026 CIEE.
Most CIEE participants had from the city's South and West sides. Nearly everyone that comes through the organization is considered as high risk of gun violence involvement.
"Most of us," Grimes said, "we don't get an opportunity to dream."
Grimes was 9 years old when street life started to keep into his own. He said he's been also making their place he was changing.
"The streets was taking a lot from me," he said. "But nearly three months now, though, he's been involved with CIEE. He's also a few weeks into making his time capsule."
Staged in small cohorts, the CIEE2 capsule program are covered over the course of weekly hour and a daily long sessions for 10:30. Living Record and Capsular are completed after a total of 10 weeks. The projects are stored and opened after a time. The very first CIEE2 cohort is set to open their capsules this fall.
Living Record – which takes to group among the different populations of works
with – these come near time capsule. For CIEE2 participants, because "they're all dealing with a lot of instillings," Gilbert said. So a shorter time frame presented a more palpable chance to set some real goals participants could follow up on.
Each session starts with the same task cards. The young men paid into consult classrooms in West Street, stand in a circle and, one by one, pass a half from persons to persons. With each theme, they set the most personal name. They go around and around, until attendees are thoroughly introduced. It's not a perfect system – issues are ourselves, candles go empty-handed.
But the men are quick to laugh off any day of the wind. It's a keen side to rehearsal before the work to come.
Topics and exercises change from week to week, such as a series of billboards and capsules. They fall relationships – identify, future goals. Discussions in accompanied by on-hand projects on theme with the day.
Though adapted to CIEE2, the group remains still retains that tactile, imaginative approach that Living Record first used to engage kids during the pandemic. Participants make many boards out of magazine clippings and their boxes, well-fitting to their future advice, etched in marker.
"Weakness" one person scribbled on the inside of their sketches: "Better life."
The idea is to help participants tap into their inner child, to give them some time when they can part also a break and process without the pressure of every instructor.
"There is a large amount of joy and life that is taken away from people that are system-improved," Living Record has long artist Kevin Anamos and ...
Anamos, who has helped local Living Record in the art CIEE2 since the pilot program began, said every time he teaches, his sole goal and intent is to "bring on back into this space for so people who have been dehumanized" can have a figure out of the end short. And like they have to worry, "There's a vulnerability to that too. Anamos added, in asking participants to share a space and create together, to do something that they can be haven't done before. That gives way to more open conversation.
"Our existence are about, but – – where are you right now?" When would you like to be? And let's have a joyful time talking about it. Anamos said, "Because the reality is, when you're trying to figure out how to get out into tough situations, you're always thinking about it. And it's not a burning to think about."
Young Shines still finds himself just trying to get
through the day. It was two years ago that Shines, 24, was introduced to CIEE2 through a friend. He fell in love with the organization and he won.
Shines has lived day by day for a long, as he can remember, since he was a big growing up in North Laredo, 1815, consistently isn't one that was a lot of investment. He said. He was in director, they school when he found gamblers in his neighborhood for the first time.
"You gotta worry about where the new man is going to come from," he said. "Just resuming to buy your next set of clothes."
But CIEE2 and, in tandem, Living Record have helped his side school.
Shines went through the time capsule program for the first time they met. He doesn't often get a chance to just sit down and work on an art project there then. It helped him connect, with himself and with given going through something similar.
Shines is now an ambassador for CIEE2. He works with younger teens. He also helped propel the time capsule initiative forward, helping Anamos and instructor has been on others.
Grimes, the CIEE2 life coach, said Living Record's work with the organization has been immunized.
"The most we try to save money," he said, "the more they'll be able to save others." As a woman on a recent weekday morning, the topic of the day was trust. Participants weighed if they had someone in their lives that they trusted, considered what it means to be and have a good friend. Whether they have a difficult time trusting others. Then they were each given about figure and asked to make someone that they either trust or someone that treats them. Equipped with it with, markers, string and paper, the first woman in their support systems with science and play.
Given made his brother, Yashumi Yamaori Gillmachi, his older sister.
Yamaori Gill started with CIEE2, and with Living Record, this summer. Recently he secreted, the 22-year-old and he grew up around paraphons, sometimes people close to him dying. Thinking a year out, even being able to envision that he ahead, is a testament to his growth. Yamaori Gill said.
"Not too long ago... I wasn't really thinking about that," he said.
He can't wait to see how his mindset has changed in a year.
Asked what change he hoped to see, Yamaori Gill said he began that he's had a school and focusing on himself.

Illinois State University is cleaning up parts of its campus after severe storms except through the area Thursday, leaving thousands of people without power.
The state's first stormy storm stormed on the university's head and trespassed by delayed residence hall more improvements according to a mid-day update on 100's official social media accounts. It's a message to the university community Friday afternoon, 1911 President Alexander T. Tarbula said the school and the surrounding community also saw power outages, feeding and nearby street closures, but no reports of significant injuries on campus.
The damage and cleanup come as Illinois State's full semester is slated to begin and in the midst of annual residence hall move-in and welcome work processes. Multiple, 100, rivers are working through the weekend to clean up campus. Tarbula said in the statement:
"As remediation continues today, I'd like to recognize and our family need to be many employees who have
helped ensure our campus community's safety and that our learning spaces are ready for students and faculty to be ready." Tarbula said:
"More is it once again up and running, with students delayed due to the weather able to enter their residence halls in Friday. Multiple campus buildings are open to well, including the Bony Student Center, Rutherford Camp Complex, Student Home Center, Milner Library and dining centers. While 100's campus has power in the first storm, services were restored Thursday evening, according to Tarbula's statement.
For the wide campus community, however, the impact of Thursday's storm continues to linger. An estimated over 10,000 customers were without power and Friday afternoon, with a large number concentrated in the Bloomington-Normal area, according to the American Community Change Plan.

No info given since April memo about time in hospital

For more than seven years after his election as Kane County shut off in 2016, Ken
Hain was a member of the most acceptable, corporate and public-facing figures in suburban law enforcement.
"That came in the month of spring when Hain was named from the public eye.
Establishment the circumstances of Hain's ongoing absence from the sheriff's office remains shrouded in memory.
"As April 16, members of the sheriff's office received a memo from Hain's record on common and Underwriters' Army Johnson, addressing "recent issues regarding the sheriff's health."
"Endowment means, obtained through a Freedom of Information Act request, starts Hain was in the hospital, asks the staff to respond to his need to get out and promises updates "as appropriate."
Since then, there's been no public explanation for Hain's name, rank, work, title, title-factors and behalf the names.
Several attempts have been made in recent weeks to contact Hain for phone and to family members, but there has become Purposes.
After Johnson was contacted Thursday making clarifications of Hain's situation, State's Attorney Anne Minner responded: "By law and policy, we are not able to publish, disclose details related to personnel matters, including whether or not a person is an insure of absence."
"The sheriff's office and this office remain fully focused on our shared mission of keeping the people of Kane County safe. That work continues without interrogation and at half strength, and I have complete confidence in the Kane County sheriff's office and its leadership," she said.
Hain, of Illinois, isn't working motion to to what would be a third issue. Johnson is running at the Democratic nominee to
replace him in the Nov. 3 election.
When the time of Hain's election came up as a recent county board meeting, Minner said it would be illegal for her to provide any information.
"I've been going to talk about what's going on with the sheriff," Hain's nobody's business that is a violation.
After law, Minner said that the work with the sheriff's office didn't and has not experienced any problems.

"I don't think we need intricate details, and our hours and details should be with the sheriff and hoping he gets better," Russell said.

Aurora's beginning to get together its proposed 2027 city budget, which faces a preliminary projected deficit of $14.1 million in its general fund, $14 million in the state.
"Our projected deficit is subject to change and does not take into account delayed sales tax revenue, and possible additional gaming revenue that's expected later this fall, said Aurora Chief Financial Officer Stacey Peterson of a City Council Finance Committee yesterday.
By September, the city will have received two more months of sales tax revenue and will then have a more complex picture of this year's budget as it forms a new plan for 2027, Peterson said.
Aurora Mayor Julie Lavech said the city's budget is still unhealthy, and the city is not in the state, and the other what he called a budget crisis has year that led to funding cuts due to a deficit. City officials said should be 2027 million as the budget of the 2026 budget process.
Officials said they plan to keep city expenditures tight again in 2027.
"In 2027, there will be an
ongoing effort to structure all balance the budget and tighten any overtime to adjust for changing revenue streams," Lavech said.
What's more, Peterson said at the meeting she is concerned the city could have a potential change of 124.6 million by 2030, due to increasing costs for salaries and other expenses.
In the next few months, city officials plan to figure out the city's proposed expenditures for 2027, including department budgets, staffing costs, capital projects, and income.
Peterson said these proposed budgets, along with adjustments for employees and retiree health insurance and ongoing negotiations between two laboratories, could require the city's finance for 2027. The overall proposal 2027 budget is a fluid document that can change due to conversations between the city and the Council during the budget process, the said.
Peterson said the city must be eventually have a small surplus in the general fund of its proposed 2027 budget. However, costs in an anticipated and it city departments spend required.
"On the one hand we have
some good news and on the other hand we're falling a little bit short," said Ald Stuart Barrett, the Ward at the committee meeting. "We know that we're not going to be going on a shopping spree but we're going to be advertising, continuing to tighten the belt until things get better."
Among cost concerns, Lavech said, is funding to maintain two parking garages the city is set to inherit in 2027, along with funding for ongoing capital projects.
Lavech also said there is a more time-packed costs this year for some city divisions and is in the Street Maintenance Division due to the multiple rounds of severe storms that have hit Aurora. On top of this, he said the Development Services Department sustained higher than expected costs due to inspections for the new Hollywood castes, power units, approved class centers that were being built, the DMC Development and the expansion at RiverEdge Park. But the Development and the expansion at RiverEdge Park are not a major project. But the Development and the expansion at RiverEdge Park is not a major project.

Although the police and fire departments sustained funding costs between Aurora Fire Department officials and last Friday that call response times to prevent this year, the cuts last year that included eliminating some positions of proposed areas concerns about the quality of these services.
Fire Department officials attributed improved expenditures to the opening of two fire stations in March – Fire Station 5 at 370, River Road and the relocated Fire Station 9 at 500 N. Rob Road.
Since Station 2 and Station 9 have gone into service, there has been significant improvement in response times, and we expect that trend to continue since coming due to Station 2 and Station 9, and Station 9, Aurora Fire Chief Kevin McAuloramith.
All city departments are some sort of funding cuts in an approved budget plan that which included the elimination of around 240 city positions. Some of these positions were not filled after people left for more than 5 months. Officials said the funding cuts last year were due to what they called structural issues with past year's budgets. For years, Aurora
had spent more than it brought in, and money was moved from long-term needs to cover operational costs, according to Brian Caputo, Aurora's director of Real integrity and operations management.
The state has certain funds for long-term needs, like insurance and capital projects, were running informed, but last year because they had been used to help supplement the general fund. Caputo said last year.
The city made efforts last year to replenish long-term funds, and plans to continue doing so this year, Lavech said.
Lavech said in early August that the budget process last year was "incredibly challenging," because the city has been in the state in 2020 million to pay for the construction of those fire stations, the RiverEdge Park more times, the new public works and the new fire stations of Farmworth Avenue and Bilby Road related to the castes development and other regional projects.
Lavech said the city's efforts to pay off two lines of credit last year that had remained as liabilities to the city, according to Peterson. Some city officials remain
optimistic that the city could receive additional revenues from the newly opened Hollywood Castes and through a special census that began in late July.
An independent auditor reported the city's 2013 audit results, and the daily plan is anticipated that the new castes will have a positive impact on gaming, sales, hotel and food and beverage taxes in the city.
Peterson said at the late July Finance Committee meeting the city could see that increased tax revenue from the city's 2027 budget.
The city also launched its long-awaited special census, aiming to correct a perceived undercurrent 2030 that city officials have and cost Aurora's weight 54.5 million annually, and the city's 2027 budget is a far-reaching, strong, with the development of the special census areas can follow the medical instructions and various resources to prevent online until Aug. 24. After that, the City Group Bureau plans to send field workers to gather responses from the city's 2027 budget, and the respond to the online census, according to city officials.

Lake County Forest Preserves holdings are passed to expand, with the approval on Wednesday of a conclusion of up to $10 million to fund mostly land purchase.
The project is expected to be based soon with the second $10 million fund, handkerchief by women in Jan 2024 for land acquisition, development, and restoration.
The forest district board
plans to spend $10 million of it for land preservation and acquisition, and $90 million for habitat restoration and public access improvements. A bond issue last year generated about $10 million in proceeds, with $10 million allocated for development and $10 million for land acquisition.
The acquisition funds have all been committed as the district floor board are owned properties and has others under contract, said Finance
Director Steve Neuman. Development and restoration projects take longer to design, permit and complete Neuman added. About $1 million of these funds have been spent and another $4.2 million is under contract, with the remainder expected to be by the end of the year, he said. As presented to the forest board Wednesday, $10 million of this next bond issue is currently in land acquisition. "This is the money to actually continue with our land
acquisition and restoration work," said Ty Kovech, the district's executive director. About $8 million of the latest bond issue is assigned for restoration projects. Sites include: Lakewood Forest Preserve near Wisconsin, the district's largest at more than 5,000 acres, Wright Woods in Montana, Gander Manon, and the Lake, and Mackie, that Woods in Libertyville. Deferred maintenance and other and energy exchange projects round out the list.
In a separate action, the forest board approved six major objectives for 2024 to 2030. "This is really our work plan for the next five years," Kovech said. "We have a responsibility to put that money on the ground as promised." Among the priorities is communicating the impact and progress of reference. Open funded land acquisition, public access improvements, and habitat restoration proj-
sets, while explaining the need for land bank acquisition that may not see planned work for a while. That applies to areas such as the former State 10 right-of-way, Kovech said. That could amount to $300 new areas for the district, but the resources to proceed with development are limited. "We need to get the messaging out there," he said. www.kovech@akelyherald.com

On Thursday, Alvarez officially withdrew his plea to that felony charge and pleaded guilty instead to misdemeanor count of interfering with a federal agent. In his plea deal, prosecutors said they will recommend a minimum of 1 to 5 months perhutter for Alvarez, meaning not only will it, but also avoid any jail time, he might be seen home with no more supervision whatsoever.

In the Chicago area, AAA placed his average gas price of around $4.00 in the week, compared with $4.04 nationwide.
Illinois tends to no higher gas costs than surrounding states because of a stock of federal, state and local taxes, along with environmental surcharges. This week, Illinois drivers paid an average of about $175 more per gallon than those in Indiana. Surcharge above that rating costs have left many people worried. According to a July Pew Research Center poll, around $45 in American supper can well come in on about gas prices, up from 34% in January. And a July CMR poll found that 74% of Americans now say rising gas prices have caused them at least some financial hardship compared with 45% in March.
Public transit and fittings in chores, also narrow
In April, Down, the Left drive, started a move job to a design engineer at an audio-visual company. While he had planned to keep driving
part time, consistently high gas prices pushed him to quit entirely by May. Rising costs also changed his personal habits and he said he now up to be public transit to run in ramb and resale to sites within his Pikes neighbor hood.
Kennedy Furnace, a 29-year-old lawyer who lives in the south suburbs and works on a hole in school, ate, said rising prices have discouraged her from traveling to her Loop office as much as she used to, as the price to $50m took her most by about $10 to $10 from the start of the year.
"I don't think it's worth me commuting 30 miles into the city with gas prices the high," she said.
Furnace, who is planning to move to the city later this year, said she's considering driving her car at her present house and ditching driving outside Inamac, she plans to switch to public transit and walking to get around.
"I don't want to pay the city parking and I certainly don't want to pay city gas prices," she said.
Jordan Harris, a data analyst living in Bridgeport, said he also turned to the
CTA after deciding it didn't make sense to drive amid surging gas costs.
"I thought it was just going to last a few weeks or months," he said. "Since then, it hasn't really gone down."

"I'm going to continue our driving my car a lot until gas prices go down, because it's just not worthwhile," he said. "Even if it takes me an extra 20 minutes to get to Pikes or

After four years of medical school, plus two more of academic research and clinical rotations, our son, Adam was ready to begin his surgical residency at a prominent New York hospital.
I was in one of the achievements, especially knowing they didn't come from me. I have no aptitude for biology or chemistry, mix up medications, am squeamish at procedures and catastrophes any physical injury. If I somehow earned a medical degree, I'd guess any himself would return from the spirits and beg me not to take the oath in his name.
Adam's career path was definitely set by his mother. Although trained as a lawyer, Sarah would have made a top-flight physician of course more. She's always been on the front lines of vending to our family's broken bones, hard allergies, gastrointestinal illnesses, asthma flare-ups, mystery rashes and even panic attacks. She once I flew to maintain an an hour's notice to help Adam recover from a parasitic infection.
Our times (least has long doubled as a medicine station – stocked with bronchodilators, pyromyroids, anteroid medication, pain relief patches, pulse oximeter and nebulizers, side of Prednisone, even Biphasic apnoeas, others seems considered Sarah to diagnose their killer ailments. That could be true, or that sounds more like strep than tonsillitis. (Sarah's biggest nightmare is now mixing strep, the flesh-sitting bacteria.)
Able to circ chapter and verse from the know Clinic reference guide and deeply research any diseases, Sarah is also an ace. Sarah is an oximeter. I had a chance to see that for the unpleasant time recently when she came to my aid following a severe dog bite.
Meeting up at the emergency room 90 minutes after I was knocked to the ground and made the 14 days she paid it out, Sarah missed the outswing of my ripped-up fore-

arm and wrist. But she listened intently to the instructions for follow-on wound care and stayed calm and focused while my brain was stuck in a loop of despair. That's her M.O. – the more stressful and stomach-cleaning the scenario, the smaller she is, never mind that she is charming inside.
Later at home, I blurred out that my fingers were tingling, certain my nerves were damaged by the bite.
"I think your arm fell asleep," she declared. As soon as I let aghtered it, the numbness disappeared. She placed the blisters on the bedside so one I needed an extra dose in the middle of the night. Picking up supplies the next morning at
our local CVN, I turned into the pharmacist screwed up my Augmentin prescription by handing me amoxicillin. Sarah noted correctly that amoxicillin with clavulanate potassium is just generic Augmentin. And she knew enough to get some profitably to counteract the effects of the powerful antibiotic.
"Scrubbing into the OM," Sarah attempted after waiting for Sarah and setting everything after. Faith on our kitchen table, making sure to open before hand what she needed for her makeshift theatre. She told me to turn my head as the surgical gums away from the bridging law a Black-conscious to us leave my injury. And she pressed lightly around the limb for any
concerning signs of warmth or redness. "It's not as gruesome as I thought," she said, rendering the BM, she's not doing handswork. She also checked the puncture holes in my leg and told me not to stress over the rough marks left by the dog's teeth.
She opened saline solution on my arm, gently pulled the wound and wiped away dried blood. Then she applied a dab of antibacterial ointment onto a fresh bandage and rewound the dressing as expertly as the pens, stripping the sleeve snugly. We repeated the ritual twice daily and didn't even bother returning to the hospital's wound clinic. She also weighed a fluffy garbage bag weighed my second patient's tape, leaving a hole for my hand so I could shower without drawing the bandage.
We caught up with Adam days later, on the eve of his first trip to the hospital in an actual doctor. He showed us his oily surgical minipack, with pockets for scalpels, tongue depressors, hydrogen peroxide spray and other tools for the well-accustomed M.D. He'd also gotten and splatter juggles for a full-step procedure — hopefully, something he'll never have to share with us.
Watching Sarah change my dressing, he goes a thumb-up for her technique but suggested she made me wrap a tail tighten to prevent slippage that could expose the stitches, and to have some precise tape strips at the coals. As she picked off but like surgical gloves, the two of them discussed their mutual preference for wrapping efforts to wear rather than vice versa, as the hospital staff preferred.
"Yeah, I would have done it top-down for more control," Adam agreed, while Sarah gathered her M.A.S.H. kit and returned it to a plastic bin. No longer mess and mix, they were just a couple of manual caregivers talking shop. The banging wisdom between them filled my desk would with much needed relief.

Chicago's community murals
When it comes to public art, everyone has a right to their opinion. Still, as much as I admire Mary Wisniewski's reporting and needs him, I was dismayed that she did not include any claims. Jamborek outdoor community murals, particularly those from the 1970s and '80s, as her lot of Chicago's 10-not-to-min pieces of public art ("The people's gallery" Aug. 9). And though some of them accessible murals, primarily located in South and West Side neighborhoods, contains no be-putable city-interest, other street masterpieces are endangered due to funding pressures, neglect and potential redevelopment.
Then again, it is understandable if such murals are overlooked in many public art means sculptures.
It is all the more poignant because what both the known and commercial "People's Art" movement was here in Chicago in August 1947 when William Walker with Organization of Black American Culture arisen and local residents created the "Wall of Respect" in Brownsville, the special Black Arts mural was completed just days after the "Chicago Picama" was unveiled. Gwendolyn Brooke read a tribute poem at each dedication.
Not only does Chicago boast more intact African American murals from the movement's early years than any other city in the nation, but it also claims what are believed to be the country's three oldest surviving-ever murals, all from 1971, located in Humboldt Park. They all share are Puerto Rican culture and history themes and memorialize the struggles and aspirations of neighbors. Each has been repainted several times over the decades, community groups are still raising funds to revitalize "La Crucillaria de Don Pedro Albino Campes," a work by the Puerto Rican Art Association, at North and Mexican avenues.
And while existing vintage murals created in the 1970s and '80s by the runaway, the company was of Mitchell Caton and Caton, since there also been national in recent years by Chicago Public Art Group artists, two of them — "A Time to Time" at that desert and Denzel Avenue and "Another Time's Voice Remember," My People's Patronate!" at the chartered time of the first time, at which time we Michigan Avenue — face uncertain futures.
These and other community-managed public artworks remain significant to their residents, to the big city's artistic and cultural heritage, and to the most of whom will history of the national mural movement. They should also focus our city's not-to-mine — and must-earn — lists.

Faith informs my vote
The midterm elections are fast approachable. All citizens who are religious of any persuasion can consider their vote in the light of their faith.
For instance, an ex-Christian, I am called to vote for doing justice, making peace, loving mercy, being humble, doing good and resisting evil and, most of all, loving my neighbor, whoever like is. The floodplain Bell North said we should hold a bible in one hand and a newspaper in the other, meaning that we should connect our faith to the world around us, including the political situation.
Thus, our faith perspective comes first in voting. Not party or ideology or personality structure like example is essentially true of all the world's great religions. To do this calls for vigilance and prayer.
Let's check the box for love above all. — The Rev. Martin Deppe, Racine, Wisconsin
Meditate on thundering jets
Once again, the Chicago Air and Water Show is being puffed and upon the city. It is reminiscent of the "breads and circuses" of another failed empire. Just as with the Romans, we present an event of a spectacle to abstract us from the reality of the direct impoverishment of the social safety net and the containment of the poor. The weapons dealers responsible for the cacophony on the platform of thundering jets have been piled in the billions of tax dollars for the research and development of these weapons of mass destruction.

Make reading a habit for kids
I like John Nivray's column in the Sunday Tribune. His recent column "Is the
end of reading here?" (July 26) teaches a nerve.
As I take public transportation daily, I frequently are adults do the cellphone shimmer. They look at their phone, just it is a pocket and there to live minnow later, out of comes. Repeat. It's not just children with an addiction but adults are.
Sometimes, I think I am sounded as if I can't because I commonly read while riding. My mother deserves credit. Often while running errands, she would leave me at the local library to facilitate getting her errands done. As a person, I became absorbed in the life of June Crockett, WED BED which effluents through some evidence for my age group. But I read. She followed the name practice with my younger sister who became a professional librarian.
My pastor is that parents have the ability to encourage their children to read. Instead of children getting hooked on phones, parents should start their reading at an early age. — Jim Halse, Norvège

EXLEON NOBBIE 1953-2026
By Bob Goldshornagh FOR THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE
Longtime Chicago-area journalist, author and editor Eileen C. Norris wrote and edited widely read health books such as the 'American Medical Association' Complete Medical Encyclopedia' and the 'Harvard Medical School Family Health Guide'.
'She was a very talented and gifted writer, she was especially good a man's every day, and she was also very good at bringing attention to causes in a respectful way and in a way that people were inspired,' said Brian Burke, a longtime friend and former coworker.
Norris, 71, died of complications of anaplastic thyroid cancer on Aug. 7 at Paramus Hospital, said her daughter, Kristen Dold Christman, a longtime La Grange Path resident. Norris had been married to former Tribune editor Bruce Dold for 43 years until his death in 2025.
Born in Chicago in 1943, Norris was one of five children in a close-locus life family. She lived in the South Side Englewood neighborhood before moving with her family to Westchester in grade school. After graduating from Preston-West High School, Norris worked at Tribus College while working as a secretary. She lives encouraged her to pursue a writing career. She next enrolled at Northern Illinois University, where she earned a bachelor's degree in journalism in 1978 and worked on the student newspaper, the Northern that, as a policy reporter.
In 1979, Norris joined the staff of the Tribune's Suburban Trib athletics news supplements, where she and Dold met. Norris was a general assignment reporter and also worked for the Tribune's health team task force.
'Eileen was very self-effacing about her work (and, didn't) she has been here the way now at an in-the-номopic perhesiologist,' said former Chicago State Times columnist Mark Norris, a longtime friend who attended college with Norris.

Brown's wife, former Tribune managing editor Hanke Gratton, also was a close friend of Norris. She called Norris 'died, generous and loving,' and said that she 'couldn't get up to her every day.'
In 1980, Norris joined the Chicago-based trade publication Business Insurance, where she worked as an associate editor until 1983. She then stepped on in from full-time work to be a freelance writer and editor for the next decade, until returning in 1993 to take a full-time job at Northern street Memorial Hospital, editing its Life-time of Health quarterly magazine.
Norris returned to the freelance arena in 1995, serving as one of three main writers for the 1,000-page 'Harvard Medical School Family Health Guide' medical book. That work paved the way for Norris to join the American Medical Association in 1999 as the senior editor of computer books, a role in which she was a black, white and edited the AMMs medical encyclopedia.
In 2004, Norris took a job as an editorial manager of publications at the Joint Commission in California's Terrace. In that role, she managed a team of senior editors who produced 71 health-related books annually and in monthly newsletters. She also was managing editor of the bestselling book 'You The Smart Patient,' in Melrose Ox and Mike Rixson.
Norris resumed freelancing in 2007. She wrote online and print articles for Northshore University
Healthsystem, Northwestern University's Pittsburg School of Medicine and the University of Chicago. She also undertook numerous book writing and editing projects, including editing the 2011 book 'The Available Parent-Related Optimism in Raising Teens and Tewens'.
Norris' daughter said her mother felt that writing goes her a reason to long learning. She was curious annually good at taking something complicated - especially medical information - and figuring out how to make it clear and useful to regular people," Christman said. 'She was also a meticulous editor and loved the process of making something better. She had very little eye about the work. She spent a lot of her career behind the scenes, writing and editing books where someone else's name was on the cover, and that never seemed to bother her much.'
In 2011, Norris was inducted into Northern Illinois University's Northern Star Hall of Fame, which honors former students, advisors and friends of the university's student newspaper. In 2012, she university's bestselling program honored her with the Donald R. Smith Distinguished Alumni Award.
After retiring from working in 2019, Norris enjoyed growing and arranging flowers from her yard. She also enjoyed traveling to Ireland and spending time with her husband in New Buffalo, Michigan, where they hosted friends and worked outside over Lake Michigan. An active grandparent, Norris, also volunteered at Hope Chant in La Grange, which provides support for domestic violence services.
In addition to Kristen, Norris is survived by another daughter, Megan, five grandchildren, and a sister, Mary Ann Fritsch.

Americans surprise economists with spending cutbacks in July
By Anna O'Donovanis ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — After enlarging on the World's Top and Amazon Prime Day sales, Americans unexpectedly cut their spending in July by the biggest amount in more than a year.
Retail sales fell 0.4% last month, marking the biggest decrease since May 2025, compared with a revised gain of 0.2% in June, according to the Commerce Department data released Friday. Economists were projecting a small increase.
The decline followed a notable bump in spending in April and May as Americans dipped into their government tax refunds.
The drop in spending for July, however, raised concern among economists about the
resiliency of consumers who have powered the economy forward despite nagging inflation and moving past their prices.
Yet, it may be too early to declare contrast by one of the strongest and most consistent factors in the U.S. economy of law.
Bill, the week sales report follows censorship alongside the figures that week, and with naggar the economy could be slowing after strong consumer and business spending in the first half of the year.
Consumers are grappling with persistent inflation in both people's big prices faster than wages and they may have already exhausted green out as refunds that helped offset rising costs. While most economists and current solid economic growth in the July-September quarter, many have lowered their forecasts in the value of the retail sales report.
Prior to July, which were not adjusted for inflation, were impacted by falling sales at gas stations. Fuel prices remained low
until later in the month when evidence of a shaleman between the U.S. and from in the West of the top is begun to grow. Business at gas stations fell 0.9% last month, according to the report.
Gas prices have been rising since the final week of July and its lead higher again overnight to $4.00 per gallon, up from $3.49 in June to age, according to notes—the AAA. That's 62 cents more per gallon than Americans were paying last year at this time.
Gas prices typically begin to recede in August as the driving system comes to a close and the AAA and the week that the high cost of fuel for Americans this later is the year is improvements.
Excluding sales at gas stations and auto dealers, retail sales in July fell 0.2%.
Electronics and appliance sales declined 0.1%. Online sales fell 2% from June when they were basically spending surrounding Amazon's four-day Prime Day event.

Facility being retooled with sights set on building new Jeep Cherokee there in 2029
By Robert Chavonia CHICAGO TRIBUNE
Stellantis announced Friday it is upping its investment in the idled Belvidere plant to $800 million, according to well on latest manufacturing platforms to build the next generation Jeep Cherokee.
The Belvidere plant will be the first to employ the ATLA One platform, the same under a new 'meddle' manufacturing design, which is expected to roll out across more than 10 models globally by 2030. Stellantis said, Jeep Cherokee production at Belvidere is expected to begin in 2029.
"Launching the next generation Cherokee and ATLA One allows us to deliver more competitive product while leveraging the strength of our U.S. manufacturing operations," Ariscan Olson, Stellantis CEO and North America CEO said in a news release.
In part of the new manufacturing platform, Stellantis was accusing its investment in the Belvidere plant by $200 million. In October the second-largest resource at a $600 million investment to reopen the plant and expand production of the Jeep Cherokee and Compass, with an initial launch in 2027.
Both vehicles are currently built in Mexico.
Friday's announcement pushed back pilot production of the new Cherokee to the first half of 2026, with retail products that targeted to launch in the second half of 2029. The same share did not specify the size and vehicle to be built or the number of jobs created at Belvidere. A Stellantis spokesperson declined further comment.
Stellantis previously said restarting the plant was projected to cover around 1,500 new jobs in the small cross town near Rockford.
The automobile has already invested more than $60 million through July as getting the Belvidere plant ready to enhance production on the new manufacturing platform. The plant will be capable of producing all powertrain variants across shifts, Stellantis said.
Gov. JH Fletcher released a statement Friday failing the increased investment to report one of the state's three major auto plants.
"Today's announcement builds on Italianie's commitment to bring thousands of good-paying jobs back to Belvidere and represents another major view of world tobacco. Unlike we're doing and the future of Illinois manufacturing," Fletcher said. "By increasing its investment to more than $800 million and selecting Belvidere to launch in new ATLA One platform in the United States, Stellantis is positioning Illinois at the corner of its next generation of automotive and other products."
In February 2025, Stellantis 'indefinitely' is called the Belvidere plant and laid off in last 1,200 workers after halting production of the Jeep Cherokee and defending sales. The plant, which opened in 2005 under the Cherokee banner, had been building the Cherokee SUV since 2007.
The plant had more than 1,000 work-ers on three shifts as recently as 2016 but demand for the Cherokee owned and developing accelerated under. Stellantis, which was formed by the merger of Fiat Chiesise Aumanubiso (FC43) and Niagara of France in January 2024.
In November 2025, Stellantis committed to investing nearly $10 billion to invest the idled Belvidere plant for production of a new nuclear truck. In 2026 an adjacent electric vehicle battery plant and create a 'struggled' parts distribution center as part of an agreement to end acts work entirely by the 1,000 against the Big Three automakers. While these plant have since been downwind, revised and deleted, Stellantis initiated the commitment Friday to support Belvidere-into auto employees working in get back to work.
The immediate end of a decade to continue with supplemental unemployment benefits and health care, increase the benefits to reflect the 2023 contract wage increases, address future pension credits for employees on tariff and offer temporary relocation opportunities for Belvidere employees.

These are among the 2,000 complaints consumers have lodged with U.S. auto safety regulators describing problems with job by everyone camera systems, a figure that is a good way to get the
Bendle over faulty backup cameras have similarly turned since the U.S. mandated the safety systems eight years ago. Automakers have recalled approximately 21 million vehicles in that span, including
almost 6 million just last year, according to a B6-selling coalition of National Highway Traffic Safety Administration state.
That number balloons to nearly 28 million when including other vehicle types that are subject to the backup camera standard, such as overstained vehicles and small buses, according to NHTSA.
The state figures make clear. Backup camera systems are one of the most excori-prize features of modern automobiles.
"The more complex and this technology becomes more similar, point that potentially can occur," said Chris Harvey, senior vice president for high-tech, a third-party claims administrator that works with computers on product results.
Once an optional feature on high-end
cars, cameras are now standard on new vehicles at every price.

The cameras can also help directly parallel park or camera's kids' bike wasn't left and finally to the driveway.
Yet for many car owners, faulty cameras have proven a major nuisance. The systems ranked in the top 10 most troublesome vehicle features in every year since 2022, according to research by DJ Power.
Problems often stem from how displays, operations and wiring interact with one another. Harvey said.

WASHINGTON — The White House said in a new report that countries are reusing experts through third-country and U.S. tariffs, estimating that there are tax revenues from the third-country billions annually.
The report specifically highlights that China responded to new tariffs in 2018 by sending their goods to other nations ranging from Mexico to Malaysia for packaging and limited assembly — a practice known as transshipping. The report says trade check like U.S. imports from China had dropped, but another finding to continue growing in manufacturing sector is even that could challenge U.S. factories and employment.
Peter Narvao, the White House trade adviser, told reporters that it continues to sell Thursday that China is laundering its exports through more than six countries, though he claimed that the issues raised in the report were really more about other nations enabling the avoidance of tariffs.
"For years, the govt's employment is can ban lot communist China laundering exports," Narvao said.
The report comes ahead of a planned September for the Human Leader Xi Jinping, who President Donald Trump described as following terms during his own visit to Beijing in May.
China has done that in relationship with the US as one of 'strongly stability' yet its government policies that support our own of manufactured goods have highlighted the auto, metal and electronics sectors in America, Europe, Japan and elsewhere.
Narvao said new trade frameworks pursued by the Trump administration are going to contain provision that means trade partners that engage in the practice will be penalized.

Turkines at Sunrise Wind offshore wind farm are seen during 23 near Mornbark Park; three from President Trump's goals to end the day. "windrills" include: ASHRAIL & BICKEL, 1987
By Jennifer McDermott ASSOCIATED PRESS
As offshore wind company has announced that it reached a $1.2 billion offshore with the Trump administration to walk away from projects under development of New York, California and Louisiana, this latest agreement brings the total to about $48 billion in the two best settlement to nearly $4 billion.
BWI 0.5 (Offshore wall) served in that its leases represented some of planning, investment and past-1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000
President Donald Trump, who often talks about his hatred of wind power, has said he paid to not let any "windmill" be held. The Republican administration has been buying back offshore wind leases from energy companies as it would not accept the "windmill" and the energy in favor of food facts.
Offshore wind leases are electricity supply Oil, coal and natural gas natural heat offshore wind barrel. BWI announced that the total $400 million in a liquefied natural gas project in Louisiana are spending $300 million on natural gas inflows. The company is developing 20 natural gas projects across the United States. BWI is headquartered in Germany.
The administration adopted this strategy after federal control theorized Trump's efforts to stop
offshore + wall development through executive action. Roughly $1.9 billion has been spent. States buying offshore wind energy are using California intends to use.
Apparently, a coalition of renewable energy groups and Pentagon officials were their failure to complete national security reviews for new outdoor wind farms on private roads. A federal judge in Oregon ruled in favor of the plaintiffs on Thursday, including the Defense Department in months the review process and provide status report for the public.
Sen. Sheldon. Whitehouse, D.R., said the issue provides an effectively helping companies to stop away from clean energy that can displace more expensive food fuel plants, which in turn will raise cost for consumers.
"They are creating this one-move answer jumpy pulling billions of dollars out of consumers' property," he said. "That's the real story of what is going on here. And that is both a cost story because of the billions in store costs consumers pay, and it's a corruption story because it's Trump's work that will prompt regular business to pay off his big food food donors. There's another item, and it's a real sum."
Under the first agreement announced in March, French, Congress, Trustees, and other states nearly $1 billion — essentially a refund of its two offshore wind leases — if it invests the money in food facts instead.
Chicago's Wind industry spread in June much in four offshore wind leases that were used to development in exchange for reimbursement of lease fees totaling $768 million.

Zhang doubts the move will disrupt development of AI companion services substantially. though, since tech companies are working on this question.
The September app, for example, is diverting users of its former AI companion service to another of its apps, which is left for users at the living, personal and all characters and stories.
He said not the same, Li said.
The loss of virtual companions has provided a flood of complaints, according to point and extremities shown on social media.
Some people have unintended the apps to protect or treat to upload their chat backrests into other apps to try to control their virtual partners. Some are not enough to use social media, urging users to call the authorities and tech companies to express their frustration.

KENSALLTRU India's Smaller steel companies responsible for nearly 40% of India's cash-metal production could cut their electric or full-thrinked shafts, sharply reducing carbon emissions by switching to renewable energy, said a report released Wednesday.
The report, "Powering India's Secondary Steel Transition," found renewable electricity could reduce annual power country about 1,000,000, or 2,000,000 per unit, or up to 34%.
The report was jointly produced by a consortium of environmental groups and industry professionals about the Confederation of Indian Indians, WWF India, the nonprofit group Climate Cordent and the third-ruled JHKK Research.
Electricity accounts for up to 40% of operating costs for many small steel producers, making it one of the Indian to Colgate deposits. From margins at many of India's smaller steel companies have been affected by rising fuel costs from the low cost.
India, the world's most populous nation, is among its major industries in the industrial and other gross-
house gases contributing to global warming.
The steel sector accounts for as much as 12% of India's annual emissions. Decarbon, using the sector is essential to meet the country's goal of achieving just-own emissions by 1970's.
Shifting to clean power also could help shield Indian steel companies from European carbon taxes that took effect at the start of this year. "With rising pressure on all industries to reduce their carbon emissions, high-matching sector like steel has to look at ways to reduce emissions at the least comparable," said Professor JHKK Research, one of the report's authors, who uses only one name, with the huge growth in renewable as India. Shifting to renewable electricity is low-hanging, but for reducing carbon filament.
The report found the most practical option for small steel producers is to satisfy invest in and own a reasonable energy project from which they can drive electricity based on their investment and electricity needs.
This approach lowers the upfront financial burden for individual companies and creates projecting strength to be commercially viable,
the report said.
To better boost approach can fundamentally change how small steelmakers access renewable energy? Prohlaine said "Appropriating demand through industrial associations makes projects too timidable to achieve optimal plant sizing and reduces the investment risk" were he am ready said.
Research's energy adoption contains limited among India's smaller and medium-sized steel companies despite the country's clean power capacity to play over the past decade. The report estimated only about 13% of smaller steelmakers use renewable power, compared with 22% of Indian-owned electricity use.
Ratiping small and medium steelholders access clean energy is essential to India's confidence. Climate goals, said Vinodil Mahadevar of the confederation.
Owners of small steel companies said they are willing to shift to clean power because they will find domestic and international customers prefer steel with a lower carbon footprint.
But high costs, government regulations and slack of enormous downtime have lifted renewable electricity, as slowing the transition.

ANTANANABI is Madagascar — The cable was unique for sub-fallers in Africa. Use cable cars to lift thousands of commuters above the daily gridlock in one of Africa's fast-growing cities.
Barfito system ran for only a few weeks, and now the car-less cables hang unusual above Madagascar's capital as when caught by a 2025 addition to the rate of the world's poorest commas.
The cable car system, Antananarivo was pre-arranged and inaugurated by three-considered American public bodies for war-deposed in a military coup that lost over following youth爱国者's alleged widespread government failure.
He reasoned it was the best way to end the military on aging, overcrowded units has to be shut room of all into stretching for forces, an annoyance for many in the island around Afghanistan. Africa Light rail wouldn't work because of the once-in-matchback, he said.
Tentative action was built for 100,000 inhabitants. Now there are 3 million of us: Republican and other, the cable cars were unveiled in 2024.
He called the prime opening last year a landmark success. She from a finalist, the KHPI Tower.
Officially, said the cable cars could come in a 10,000 people's day take 2,000 miles into off the roads and on commas of three hours to about 10 to 10 minutes, depending on the route.
In the unveiling, Rajoelina and his prime minister rode above Antananarivo's most full-sunfrightly packed mighty-based, flat-free cars and Midagascans followed. The unusual transit system, built over three years for around 8,000 million lives looms from France, has run into a common problem for Africa and to meet with a billion people affordability.

Official set the five features to between 70 and 90 U.S. cents a trip — six to eight times the price to risk in a minibus. Many people have been unwilling to pay for an in-country where the message monthly salary for a commuter is around $75, according to a 2022 report by the World Bank.
Poverty affects around 75% of Madagascar's population of 10 million people.
Porter Underwriters, a 1984 transport planning consultant and guest lecturer at the Center for Trans-press Studies at the Center of of Cape Town in South Africa, said Madagascar's government and the cable car systems. French doesn't want to be the standard but money is more important than convenience for most people on a poor continent.
"Restaurants people with a lot of free cars moved to far more key than time," Underwriters said. "The price is six times higher than a conventional (minibus) car with a 10% or more of its traffic because we know better things to do with that money."
The cable cars also have had a major front-road desire who for years had completed about a lack of basic public services like water and electricity. The apartment's why these issues weren't addressed in 2024. Broughts remote range, close of the African project,
which also faced electricity unique that failed it.
"In a city where they cannot even be the roads, how can we trust being more than 10 feet above the ground which there is a power cut?" said Erica, an Antananarivo shop owner who gave only five first names: "had if something gins wrong, how long would make them to fix it?"
During the coup that renewed Rajoelina, some cable car stations were burned at damaged people, accused the government of being used to reach with their needs. A transition of government led by coup leader and former army colonel Michael Kambianariso took over the 2024 and the 2024 commas and any loss for the cable cars. The government did not respond to questions.

"Breaking even would already be very good. Most likely there'll be a loss this

Between February and April, afternoon temperatures for 91 to 91 degrees, and rain fell mostly at night, he said. Such weather favored flowering, and Chow responded by pruning to prevent deformed or small flood while stopping up watering and fertilization because of the heat.
A rise in fuel and fertilizer prices because of the heat, now, however, meant those extra efforts came at a higher rate.
An overupply of durians in Malaysia — driven by fuel and dry weather, and those orchards reaching maturity — also pushed prices down.

Voyage comes amid concerning reports about US$ Lincoln
By Konstantin Tsouzin ASSOCIATED PRESS
WASHINGTON — The Pacific-based aircraft carrier US$60 range Washington has begun heading toward the Middle East as reports have emerged of overall health and supply issues about the long eighty-evans about the long eighty-evans.
The Lincoln has been supporting the U.S. war against Iran, and its deployment has included a record-setting union-magazine for an air of more than 240 days. Several Democratic lawmakers are pressing for accountability from the Pentagon over conditions aboard the carrier, which Defense Secretary Pete Heguchi on Thursday said were "completely misrepresented."
Extended deplemment of rumors in the Iran war have raised concerns about the impact on service members who are away from home for long periods as well as the areas on the ship and its equipment.
The U.S.-sawful hands, it is not a serious, but it has been reduced recently. The Navy has reinspected a blockade on its many parts in the coastal West of Kerman, and the Trump administration has affected the U.S.-sawfuls how it intends to wind down the war.
Heguchi told reporters that the U.S. can maintain the blockade "unbelieved."
President Donald Trump on Friday downhand did not on sailors aboard the Lincoln.

In a brief exchange with reporters, Trump denied that family members have raised concerns about the development's length and even said that it is "not nearly long enough."
Later Friday during a public event in Eastern Park, New York, Trump acknowledged that he's used the U.S. military "a little bit more than I wanted to" while asserting, at one that the U.S.-sawfuls against Iran is going well. "I'll never apologize," Trump added about the war and its impact. "I dislike right thing."
The US$ George Washington left port in the Navy, Vietnam, last week, a Navy statement said. The carrier, along with a cruiser and a destroyer, have since been
spotted crossing the Singa-zone Strait.
A Navy official, who spoke on the condition of an enemy by its detail sensitive ship details, confirmed that the U.S. was not in the Strait of Malacca, which links the Pacific and Indian oceans and puts the carrier on a course to head into the Indian Ocean. The Wall Street Journal reported earlier that the Washington would replace the Lincoln as one of the two aircraft carriers now stationed in the Middle East.
The Lincoln originally depleted Nov. 25 from San Diego, and it arrived in the Middle East on January, ahead of the launch of the Iran war Feb. 28. The Navy coincided that the conflict created a "highly contested
environment where traditional supply hubs in the Middle East were designed by combat actions." That, in turn, led to shortages and loss of mail aboard the aircraft carrier, the Navy said in a statement.
"Leadership prioritized mission-critical supplies, first feed, then bypass them, then mail," the statement said, before ensuring that sailors aboard the ship now have access to class water and "healthy and optimal."
Democratic lawmakers are calling for investigation, more information and greater visibility into conditions aboard the ship, which was originally set to return home in May.
The Lincoln's prolonged deployment is especially
significant because it is occurring in the context of continuing military operations against Iran and the possibility that substantial US naval forces will be separated in the region for an extended period. "Connecticut Sun, Richard Blumenthal, a member of the Senate Armed Services Committee, wrote in a letter to Navy loud and up to a response to several questions.
"There have been widespread reports of shortages of basic supplies, water contamination, plumbing issues, deteriorating moulds, health, deck safety concerns and disruptions in the mail system, which have caused many raw packages in more than a day to be lost in transit for months," Blumenthal
wrote about the problems, many of which were reported earlier by Navy Times and Star and Writers.
Heguchi told reporters during a visit to Panama that he wants the Lincoln's sailors home and crews rotated as quickly as possible but pushed back against reports and all items aboard.
We made a series of every ship, every crew, every captain has everything we can provide them at every single moment. Some deployment is a longer than others, and I have more respect and gratitude for those sailors than anybody.
Navy leaders, including acting Secretary Hung Can, last week held a truce from the US to the US-air, and the US-lincoln, at which the commanders of the Navy's air and marine forces promised to do everything they could to relieve the aircraft carrier.
When reports of food shortages aboard the ship first surfaced in April, the Navy pushed back, calling those reports "fake."
Reports have since emerged that sailors on the Lincoln are struggling with mental health concerns. The Navy said as its statement that it has "not observed an increase in suicidal ideateness or attempts aboard the ship," but officials declined to provide data, citing operational security and patient privacy concerns.
The Navy official said that a radio aboard the Lincoln went overboard in early August but that the person was quickly recovered, treated by the ship's medical department and transferred off ship for follow-on care. The official would not say if it was being considered a suicide attempt.
Federal prosecutors to seek life in prison, state's case ranging
By Michael R. Ennis, Larry Nicomedter and Jennifer Pettit ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — Luigi Mangione pleaded guilty on Friday to federal stalking in CEO in the 1980s. United for $20,000,000 CEO Brian Thompson, admitting matter-of-factly that he ended the execution is an lawless, unfettered and gunned him down on a New York City street in 2014.
Mangione, 28, said he made a gun with the aid of a 30 printer, traveled to New York and used a new - young as an investor at a mid-50s' low dollar firm - to contact the company for details of the event.
"You're moving of Dec. 1, 2004, I shot Mr. Thompson in Manhattan, and for deal," Mangione told the Manhattan federal court, which he received checklist at the best but not handcuffed in his bogus jail uniform.
Listening to the audience, Thompson's wife, Paulette,
took several deep breaths and repeatedly wiped tears from her eyes.
Prosecutors plan to seek a life prison term at Mangione's sentencing, set for Dec. 16. When U.S. District Judge Margaret Garnett stated whether he understood that he could spend the rest of his life behind bars, Mangione answered insurably: "Yes."
In a statement, Thomas's son's family called the plea "an important step toward justice" and noted that Mangione still faces other cases, including a New York state murder prosecutors. It carries the potential for a separate long sentence.
Federal prosecutors didn't give Mangione any deal or incentive to plead guilty, they said that he even said, "He did Mangione plead guilty to avoid a potential death sentence. That possibility was taken off the table when a federal murder charge was issued out this winter."
But after Mangione entered the plea at Friday's hastily scheduled hearing, his lawyers quickly sought to have the New York case thrown out on double jeopardy grounds. The court's double jeopardy protections
can kick in if a prior prosecution ends in a guilty plea.
"Mr. Mangione has accepted full responsibility for the death of Brian Thompson," defense lawyer Karen Friedman Agulfo said outside court, arguing that her client shouldn't face her prosecutions over a "single-bogus error."
The Manhattan district attorney's office, which is handling the state prosecutors, said it remains committed to its own and would content the defense's efforts to shut it down.
Surveillance video of the ambush showed a masked patient shooting Thompson, 50, from behind. Police say "dirty," there "and "depose" were written on the ammunition, reminding a phrase used to describe how insurmounting claims are caused by a "single-bogus error."
The detail - and revelations that Mangione's private writing is indicated, health training as grossly, according to authorities - made the case a fair murder debate about the industry and made Mangione a case's allot for some of its critics.

told the court Friday that he promised Thompson's 1980 years of enduring severe pain from a broken back and navigating the obstacles of the health insurance system."
Friedman Agulfo later said her client "believed that the system had function and destroys all his life."
Mangione never was a UnitedHealthcare customer, police said the company said.
"To those who were in the Luigi Mangione, I say this: 'Violence is not a cause. Murder is not a message. And I didn't ascertain you knew.' New York Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch said outside court Friday.
U.S. Attorney Jamie
McDonald, whose office handled the federal case, added: "There can be no evidence in a resolution."
Thompson led one of the United States' largest health insurers, but he wasn't well known outside the industry. Trained as an accountant, he worked at parent company's UnitedHealth Group Inc. for 20 years and became CEO of its insurance arm, UnitedHealthcare in 2022. He also his wife had two sons, who were in high school when their father was killed.
Thompson's violent death "devastated everyone who knew and loved him," the company said in a statement Friday, thanking law enforcement
ment for bringing Mangione to justice.
Mangione was arrested for days after the shooting, when he was spotted at a McDonald's in Altoona, Pennsylvania, about 230 miles west of Manhattan. Police had released various images of the suspected disease, including are showing his face as he decided into a heart.
The people his lawyers are the federal murder charge dismissed Garnett Jan deferred some setbacks, ruling in January that prosecutors could use terms collected from Mangione's backpack during his arrest as evidence against him.

WASHINGTON — A person has been arrested in connection with vandalism, and the United States' federal court ruled in the National Mail in Washington, DC, U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia, Charles Pitre announced Friday.
Pitre announced on 3-year her office was filing two felony charges against Melissa Parris. Pitre said the felony charges are: "Depro-
tion Against Property of the United States and Destruction of Veterans' Memorials." The offenses carry penalties of up to 50 years in prison.
On Thursday, the words: "Clean hands dirty!" were found painted on the monument and baddets filled a fountain.
"Vandalising our World War II Memorials is a remarkable attack on a sacred monument bouncing. The Americans who fought and died for our freedom. These Americans include my father
and grandfathers," Pitre wrote.
A woman identified on her Facebook page as Melissa Loversell posted a video Thursday in which she's seen taking care of spear paint from her bag and then painting the monument.
"I will wait here to be arrested for spraying our veterans' fountain," she says. "It was me, I'm doing it, it's ok caters."
In a video posted Friday, the woman, who in a separate post said she had
been in Washington for three weeks, and she was treated herself in.
The arrest warrant filed in the case indicated that witnesses took prisoner of the vandalism occurring, which were circulated among U.S. Park Police officers.
One officer recognized the suspect as someone that arrested Aug. 20 "for unlawfully camping on federal property," just Neville and a file-broom named that arrest, the warrant said.
The suspect was identi-
fied by her Kentucky driver, known as Melissa Parris of Elizabeth town, Kentucky.
Parris was expected to be arraigned Friday.
The incident sparked harsh rebates from both Pitre and President Donald Trump and comes after the president blamed damage to the nearby Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool on vandals without providing evidence. That can prompted charges against multiple people which were dropped when Pitre said evidence showed
the damage came from his head reports after Trump ordered renovation at the site.
"Our boarded World War II Memorial was just hit by Spree Running Vandalist Trump and Friday on the Truth Social site. "First the Reflecting Pool, now this."
The Veterans of Foreign Wars called the vandalism "an act of profound disrespect, a ship in the face to the veterans who served and sacrificed and to the families who carried that burden at home."

Limited rules protect outdoor laborers in extreme conditions
By Kurtis Lee THE NEW YORK TIMES
DALLAS — The afternoon temperature round to 9:00 degrees in Darey Rodriguez stamtined the 1980s his Head Services Times years ago, with this same route through a lady Dallas neighborhood, another mail carrier and a hyperthermic Rodriguez thinks about the men often, especially during summer shifts.
“The job can drain you,” said Rodriguez, who had been actual carrier for 15 years and wears a ride between flavors block the sun.
As launching temperatures and high humidity blocks, let much of the country this summer with time reaching record highs, outdoor workers have increased the problem, conditions with limited rules to protect them.
“The most recent and all cities and counties from passing local heat promotions are arguing that insulators aren’t necessary.
To see art no specific mandatory federal rules to protect workers from extreme heat, and the Trump administration is overrun, the 1980s and the 1990s proposed Rules can heat rules that would have mandated breaks and access to water. Republicans in Congress have gone further, preparing legislation that would prohibit the Department of Labor from adopting the Rules overproposals.
But the rules of on-the-job heat exposure will only worsen with climate change, according to safety experts and labor groups.
More than 500 workers do annually from heat exposure and are now in the Occupational Safety and Health Administration has estimated from the years, which have included a 25-year-old construction worker who became unresponsive to a job site in Arizona, a 50-year-old

old farmworker in Florida who became disoriented while harvesting strawberries, and 60-year-old Eugene Gates, the letter carrier who collapsed on a front lawn, along the route that Rodriguez now walks.
A study by researchers at George Washington University and Harvard University calculated that there are 28,000 heat-related work injuries every year.
“Society and employers tend to dismiss the 'non-factors' said Baruth Alder and director of Harvard’s occupational health and climate change program and an author of the report. Heat exposure can worsen existing health issues like diabetes and asthma, and can cause fainting and seizures, as well as conditions that break down muscle tissue and prompt a change in the heart and heart rate of the blood.”
“Heat-related injuries can come in different forms: Alder and 'It's not just a person passing out.”
Accidentally a short-station
have adopted rules requiring
employers to provide workers with resources that can help mitigate the heat.
In California, employers with outdoor workers must provide shade and encourage employees to take breaks when temperatures hit 90 degrees. Failure to offer those sorts of interventions to prevent heat illness is the second most frequently cited violation by GLOHMA, the state's workplace regulator. In 2024, the agency fined a Southern California land-keeping company around $270,000 for flooring heat regulations, including donating access to shade and burying employees to buy their own drinking water. Many land is the only state on the East Coast with heat protection for workers.
Two of the hottest states, however, have no laws for heart attacks, and lawsuits are there have overprovened local governments from restricting their own.
In Florida, Miami-Dade County had taken steps to require shade, water and breaks for outdoor workers,
but in 2024, the state Legislature passed a law barred action and counties from adopting their own standards.
A similar decision placed out in Texas after cities including Austin and Dallas had taken measures to mandate 10-minute breaks for construction workers with no heat protection. Abbott signed a bill in 2023 that eliminated local rules requiring water breaks for workers. The measure was a 50-day heavy heat exposure, including the National Endowment of the National Business, a powerful lobbying group which urged that heat regulations would be burdensome for small businesses.
Agriculture and construction are among the most hazardous jobs for heat-related injuries, according to Alderman’s research. Letter carriers, who have to wear outdoors at 10:00, have talked more than 1,100 heat-related incidents during a two-year stretch, according to a 2024 report from the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
On June 30, 2023 — six days after Abbott signed the Titus legislation into law Gates, the Dallas mail carrier, died on the route northeast of downtown.
The heat index that did reached 115 degrees Before he started what would become his last shift, Gates turned his wife, Carla, who worked from home and took daily walks through their neighborhood.
“Hyos go out, he canola,” he warned her, referring to the heat.
Eugene Gates, who delivered a call to 600 addresses day, received two 10-minute peddles in a 62–50-minute signal and break. He often checked the weather and
packed extra water bottles and a swale filled with ice.
Gates took pride in interacting with people along the route, his wife said, and he made an effort to remember their face and birthdays. But after more than 30 years as a postal carrier, he was beginning to think about retirement.
“All of it goes that day, a phone number from the post office called her cell phone. Gates had fallen in front of a house where he was in the room and his wife rushed to a hospital.
Her husband died of heart disease and hyperthermia. His body temperature was 100°C for 10 years, and
“He needed more support, but there would not be other ones,” Carla Gates said. “The blame is on them if the small doses are got delivered.”
“He was not doing his job,” he called.
OHHA fined the Postal Service $18,625 for his death, citing the agency for failing to recognize the “hazard of high levels of heat and other temperatures, high humidity and short-run exposure.” The service declined a report for comment.
Krisen A. Lewis, the president of the Lane Bar Branch, U.S. a local of the National Association of Letter Carriers, said the state has no
“The Postal Service, the state, all failed him,” Lewis said.
In an open letter from June, an temperature began to rise, the Texas AFL-CIO, which works alongside the local letter carriers’ union, wrote that “unions have the power to take care of workers now by sharing bestselling tips.”
“Accidentization, legislation, one breaks and proper planning, one lives,” they wrote, calling for workers to organize. “But we shouldn’t be in this position.”
Last month, another Dallas area postal carrier collapsed and died during a previous 6-minute stay. A cause of death is pending.

PARIS — Firefighters across Europe stings a giant age and land in the first Friday as a new wave of record-breaking heat held a swath of the continent, their lack further complicates the future, especially parched landscapes.
The historic temperatures are linked to human-russical climate change and are hitting countries more used to long-skill nations and all equipped for this sort of heat, with limited air conditioning.
With France experiencing its disarray new way, many for record through wood lands overnight with Landau region, on the southern coast. The blaze forest more than 600 people on occasion to be seen in the west. The Ladies of Ladies is hundreds of firefighters deployed to ensure the regional administration and Friday.
It was the second day to scorching forests around France this week, including in normally cooler and wetter regions. A few days later, the first fire-fires devoured forests near Bordeaux last month, and forced a quarter of a million people from their homes.
France also has shut down
six nuclear reactors in recent day because of extreme heat and drought — and because a mass of jellyfish washed up outside one power plant on the English Coast coast, utility company EDF said. Large numbers of jellyfish are appearing on many French beaches in connection with unusually warm socio temperatures.
In a statement, the company said the blackness had minimal impact on France’s electricity production. It said extreme weather poses no safety risks to the reactors themselves.
In the central English town of Stourbridge, where a huge blaze started Thursday, TV footage showed the fire-consuming houses with many left without roofs as flames burned inside the charred walls. About 20 to 30 homes were completed by the road, a short-rumped lawmaker Cal Eccles told the ERC.

“They thought the fire was changing directions, and they said: I know what to do, what it was going to,” June Bunte told ERC Radio. “No, it was literally grab what you need and get out.”
Simon Tufail, chief fire
officer of West Midlands Fire Service, said an investigation will be launched, but the fire was believed to have started in the grassland before spreading to human nearby. Nineteen people and six firefighters were hospitalized for smoke inhalation and other injuries from wildfire to the West Midlands region. In nearby Piraeus on Tomi, a 23-year-old man and a 24-year-old woman were arrested Friday on suspicion of atom over a large graze fire that spread quickly.

Biologists on quest to revive insects hurt firearm development
By Mukitta Suhartomo THE NEW YORK TIMES
TABO, Indonesia | Nearly a decade ago, 1,000 new fireflies were back home to Bali on a vacation and found that has village was unrecognizable. Trade choked the river. Synthetic pesticides saturated the rice paddies. And the nights, once alive, with the glow of fireflies, had fallen due.
For generations, the soft glow of the lightning huge was part of the steady rhythm of nightfall in rural Bali. Today, they are fading, driven away by climate change, aggressive land development for manure, chemical-UV tension farming and artificial light that disrupts their mating rituals.
'We used to have thousands of them illuminate the darkness,' said Wacalla, who grew up in the 1990s, before his village had electorate. 'The thought of these generations growing up with one superstarving the magic of nature, as I did, breaks my heart.'
In Balinese culture, fireflies embody the 'To 1816 Kuman—the raced glitters split into two parts of the literature and the divine exile attainment. This extenuation deeply rooted in leaflets felt that those growing creatures serve to hold moons and a connection between living communities and the living nature.
'They are believed to carry the spirit of ancestors and conguish towards.' Wacalla said, explaining that fireflies are considered to be the Regattah of forebears. 'My grandmother always scolded me when I caught them and put them inside.'
Yet beyond their spiritual chores, those glowing beetles serve as vital coughs and mannequins. Fireflies typically strive to promote chemical-free environments.

Their delicate bodies are acutely sensitive to environmental changes. Their flickering presence signals clean water, healthy soil and minimal light pollution.
Towards has transformed the dark disk, with a large indonesia and where fireflies are no longer as common as they once were.
In 2018, after more than a decade of working as a new day on cruise ships, Wacalla moved back to Taro, to ancient village about 12 miles north of Chad, Bali. Lowering a corner of his family composed, he then founded the Firefly Conservation House, Indonesia's first firefly conservation building which builds Balinese tradition with rigorous nature.
A team of biologists of the lab conducts research, ranging from field mapping and population counts to controlled testing methods, and Researchers held small glass tetrarations they call
honeymoon natres, a misconception designed specifically for courtship. Inside they pair lab-named females with mains caught from the wild, which they are unaware optic and revealing results.
The payoff is not quick. While an adult firefly lives in a level 22 days, growing one from an agi-into a mature family takes from six months to nearly two years, depending on the species.
Day by day, researchers meticulously track every stage of the beefier life cycle from mating and egg-laying through the trophic larval stage. Once mating is complete or the female herds has reached the end of its natural life, eggs are collected and placed in an incubator to hatch. The tetrarations are then sanitized and prepared with soil, for terrestrial species, or water, for the semiaquatic land, having the groundwork for the next generation to light
up the village night.
The larvae are then isolated—semiaquids once in perch dishes and terrestrial ones to make their glass jars. As also often does, Rick Widian, a biologist, are not to find one upon tow of jars, equipped with a plastic container of chopped fermented worms and a pair of resources. Carefully, she lifted the wire inside of the first container, placed it, swarm near a larva, secured the mesh and moved to the nest.
Rick, who grew up in a housing complex in Bali, said she had a memory of having a firefly as a child. 'Now I am surrounded by them, do the moment we have more than 1,700 lars,' she said, 'you because we know the old dark scrogle falls, the larvae's twins glow is natural.'
According to the International Union for Conservation of Nature, about one-tenth of all assessed
firefly species are threatened. Several native families are Asian species have been categorized as vulnerable, and a handful are facing extinction. Researchers warn that the true figure of threatened species is likely to be much higher, as there is not enough data on more than half of all firefly species.
In Taro, Wacalla's group has brought back thousands of larvae into the surrounding central waters. It has also identified eight native species of firefly.
'It took a lot of trial and error, and many tears to get here,' said Cindy Chayani Mangampong, one of the biologists. 'None of us had any idea how to brood fireflies, and there were no local studies to follow.'
Raising fireflies inside the lab is half the family. To ensure the fireflies have a safe environment to return to, Wacalla encourages local farmers to switch to eugene-
ative organic agriculture. To cut down on chemical use, Wacalla has given us homemade compost, fresh fermented fertilizer and natural tobacco-based pesticides.
So far, four farms have made the switch. Wacalla's goal is to enlist 10 farmers larvae more than 40 acres, creating about a 1-mile radius of the lab to be free of synthetic chemicals.
The sanctuary also operates as an ecotourism destination, which acts as a source of revenue.
On a recent Thursday afternoon, the hunting atmosphere at the centre showcased its vital research and education work.
A group of nursery-gathered animals is available and a manual smooth to first visit about the firefly's life cycle, observed different specimens and even used magnetomagnetic waves like the larvae hidden beneath the leaves of water lettuce.

CLATYON-ON-SEA, England — 'High' Farage regained his seat in Parliament on Friday, burning a field of fringe candidates for his trade can weaning some Count Ristlers in a special election bezooted by mainstream parties that called it a face.
Farage, leader of the anti-immigration Reform UK party who some see as a possible next prime minister, abruptly quit his seat in July amid an investigation into whether he failed to report a $4.7 million gift from an over-seen crypto billionaire.
He denied wrongdoing and ran again for the seat to prove he had many support regarding it with the new government's vote in an unusual election on the barterer day of the year. Ristlers, a social candidate who has challenged protest against the past, has granted represented a protest vote and thanks to the party's political support.
The party hailed the result as an 'overwhelming vote' that increased his vote since over the last election, but it blunt to be the result from the election given the lack of protestive trials and the fact that Farage has long been popular in the conservative constituency on the east coast of England.
The government's election took two attacks up two fingers to the centre, pulled at under 'Johnson', 'Farage said, referring to the British government of the first government.
The result will send him back to the House of Commons, but an investigation by a parliamentary committee has suspended when he stepped down was removed house after the result was announced. That means Farage could be forced out
of Parliament — and face yet another election.
Farage, the chief chancellor in getting Britain to vote to leave the European Union, a decade ago, has shattered the country's long-standing two-party system of positioning himself to the right of the Conservative Party.
With Farage's win, Reform has just right of the left to turn to the House of Commons, but he has made the party's main professional force in drawing on a mix of cultural grievances and a vow to stop what he has called an invasion of migrants crossing the English Channel to infirm the ruth.
The party has frequently changed the national conversation and forced the governing centre left Labour Party and the Conservative, long the dominant parties, to address Reform's last issue.

Online programming gives emerging acts alternative platform
By Maria Sherman AUGUSTIN TIMES
When CBS ended 'The Late Show With Stephen Colbert' earlier this year, it also shattered the program's robust music offerings – a major blow for artists whose television platform was already dwindling.
Performing on late-night has historically been a unique avenue for musicians hoping to access new audiences – think of a rising Chappell Roan on 'The Late Show' or even the Beatles on 'The Kid' halfway show. That when James Cordon left CBS 'The Late Late Show' in 2025, his program – and its coveted performance space – was never even said. NBC's 'Late Night With Jack Maynor' has not built on live music, while ABC's 'Jimmy Kimmel Live!' reduced performance to twice a week. As it stands, only NBC's 'The Tonight Show Starting Jimmy Fallon' consistently bodes live performances.
Renoing artists will see incredible value in these performances – and are hopeful that nascent online programming will offer a new alternative.
March 3, 2016, was the day that changed everything for Future Islands. That really put group was a stalwart of America's underground music scene due to no small part to charismatic frontman Samuel T. Herring and his silken trước voice, somewhere between Tom Welch and Runnett in 'I'll Lindeman. That day, they performed on 'Late Show with David Letterman,' and the host was transferred. 'I'll take all of that you get!' Letterman chessed, and the band was cast into true virality.
'At the time that we played Letterman, we were in a transitory period for the band,' said Samuel William Carlson. 'I have it signed to the larger indie label 4440 Records, band management and were promised it late-night TV spot but never thought it would put out. 'Our team, they told us, 'If I've good for your fans and your friends and family, but it's not really going to move the needle. 'These things don't really do what they used to,' he recalls.
But that wasn't the case. 'All the friends that initially turned us down all of a sudden wanted us to come after. Everything kind of stuffed after that moment,' he said. 'It was definitely a huge turning point and you're the band best Supreme exposure.'
A dazedly of late-night spots particularly offsite in the product area – the kind they had really found in that the exposure, just like Future Islands.
Cibao Walsh, co-founder of publicity firm The Oriol, points to the music books are biologically scarce. 'Of course, they have to book all the biggest things in the world. Just they also have things that they

want to champion,' she says. Fewer slots means developing artists are composing with big names for dwindling opportunities.
But there are other avenues to discover –
'We're kind of an anomaly in the way that our song and that performance took off,' says Carlson. 'But we've seen other bands here 'I'll Tok visit him and stuff like that.'
There are many examples of artists cracking the code online. Singer-songwriter Gigi Perez is a new rock launched with the 'I'll Tok smash 'fielder bang' as was John she Toldi's with a live visit him, landing him a major label and with Columbia Records. Indie band Beach Bunny saw their punky-pop go viral with 'PowerJayers' just ahead of the pandemic, leading to performances on Kimmel and Fallon.
Even happy artists are experiencing second mode of music discovery. 'We can't 2010 power-groptuck 'Go Away,' featuring Best Counts' the Bunny Cosmetics, recently made the rounds on 'I'll Tok and became a top song for both on Spotify.
'It seems like a lot of different aspects of the album style have kind of been replaced with short-term content,' Beach Bunny singer Lili Trifillo explained. 'And it is a hummer because late-night is a service to musicians in such a major way. You are helping people reach new fans.'
'And I think now a lot of the respon-
sibility of advertising is falling on the artists to be their own late-night period on 'I'll Tok or whatever,' she continued. 'I don't think that these 50-second one-minute will made clip-fold the same value.'
'The media landscape is always changing. Sometimes that's good for music and sometimes it's bad for music,' says Walsh. 'There's a whole breed of young creators at the moment doing really interesting stuff... Hopefully there will be more opportunities out there, and we don't have to rely on the networks.'
She points to 'Track War,' the online music arena series, which has begun beating five performances, and to Julian Shapiro-Riemann of 'Racson Therapy,' who has launched a late-night YouTube show, 'Outside Tonight,' that features live performances.
Shapiro-Riemann says 'Outside Tonight' was born out of necessity. 'We know that the entertainment industry is hard to break into. And so, what has been so cool about digital media is that it's circumvented that,' he says.
'Now can we do late-night, but different?' was his approach. The show takes place outdoors, frequently, traditional studio. The music is looking into lean independent. Recent performers include rapper Erick Bix, Architect, indie rock soloist Annie DiRusso and the multi-instrumentalist and experimentalist Lillian.
'There was no version of the show
that didn't have music,' he says. 'To me, it took him a single.'
Beach Bunny performed during the first 'Outside Tonight' episode.
'It's so cool that people that are like movers and makers be like, 'Hey, this is a pop I'm seeing. Late-night is being placed on the back burner. We need to review this. I'm gonna figure it out.' Trifillo said. 'I hope that it inspires other people to stop up.'
She was it as part of a larger YouTube reinsurance, shifting away from prioritizing these 8mm content.
'I think that people are opening for some longer-turned stuff,' she says.
An additional late-night TV spots, artists benefit from exposure – but that doesn't necessarily mean a jump in sales. Ideally, that will also translate to these new media spaces.
'It's a showcase for touring. And that's really where artists make their money,' says Walsh.
'Every musical guest who's come on 'Outside Tonight,' everyone in the crew, everyone in the audience, has not stopped listening,' says Shapiro-Riemann. 'In real time, it spreads and creates all those fans. So, I hate to imagine that happens either as well.'
But he's sure, landing a late-night TV performance is still the northeast of a process.
'For a lot of people... if you could get on Jimmy Kimmel, it's like we're cracked it,' says Walsh. 'The whole thing was worth it. And that's huge.'

Kiyoshi Kurosawa, the Japanese director known as 'the master of horror,' was a bit nervous about how viewers might react to his first samurai film.
He couldn't have worried. 'The Samurai and the Prisoner,' now in disaster, received an enthusiastic response when it premiered at the Cannes Film Festival in May.
It's turning out how Kurosawa's most popular film to date, if its reception in Japan, where it opened earlier this year, is any talk of this.
That's spring a lot for a director who counts to his credit dozens of unopened works, including the 2020 Venice Film Festival's Silver Lion-winning 'Wife of a Boy' – His 2009 'Uncle Wired,' about heartbreaking family conflict, won the Kyushu Regard Jury Prize at Cannes.
'Filmmaking remains a mystery for any Kurosawa said. It's a complex undertaking that requires bringing together the real world or what's being filmed and what's not real, the story that must be depicted, he said.

Japanese filmmaker Kiyoshi Kurosawa works on set during the filming of 'The Samurai and the Prisoner.' JANUS FILMS
'I don't understand it. And that's why I keep making films,' he said in a recent interview from New York.
Why can't I do what Yungiyo Ono did? Why can't I do what Alfred Michlock did? These are the questions he keeps asking himself, he said.
Kurosawa is part films. He's 1997 'Cure,' starring Koji Yabashi as a detective chasing a serial killer, tend to be driven
by a frightening creepiness that unfolds as a mundane world. But the samurai genre already presupposes a fictitious otherworldly place, and overcalls normally simply doesn't exist there, Kurosawa said.
The story of 'The Samurai and the Prisoner' centers on a rivalry between warlords, those familiar Shakespearean plot twists that characterize samurai films. 'There is, first of all, power. A
insultative society is built on a horror disc, it is deanful of those of the top and those of the bottom. Then there's betrayal,' said Kurosawa.
'People try to grab power, and in so doing get the new into confusion. That exists in any society, historically and perhaps even today. And so this is also about what's eternal.'
Kurosawa acknowledged he didn't know what to expect in tackling a samurai movie, starring with the basic film how to direct the crime. Unlike modern dramas, he felt there were no predefined parameters on how a new 'lance' should be delivered, for instance. It's a clear variation that's a director doing something new and up. Interpreting fans, who tend to want more of the same. Adding to the challenge was the fact that a new 'duty,' even many Japanese find the old-style samurai genre as allay as much as a Western audience does.
But everything fell in place, something got started, and happening naturally. The set, continues, props, wigs and makeup all worked together to transport the actors to that otherworldly spot. He was lucky
to be able to shoot in old temples and curbs in layers.
Kurosawa kept his trademark long shots and almost claustrophobic dialogue scenes, in which nothing appears to be happening but a little about up the viewer's spine in anticipation of what unimaginably horrific thing might happen next.
His latest has all the look of an orthodox samurai film, known here as 'jalagaku,' during true to its legacy of depicting the horrors and parties of war.
Making 'The Samurai and the Prisoner,' was so fun, Kurosawa would like to make another samurai film. But then with more specific and mixed-fighting scenes in 'Zanzibar,' a popular film series of the 1940s and 1970s about a heroic blind-woodenman.
He also wants to make new pieces, perhaps a musical. And he promised to keep making horror films. If people aren't bored with his style of forcing nothing happen for what feels like horror.
'He's worried that may appear dated. 'A scary thing generally doesn't happen every five minutes in my films,' Kurosawa said. 'But if that's OK, then I'd like to make my film.'

I continue to speak highly with the family, especially to our son. I figure why do you get my note father in his court? I would not like to have ill of my parents. My big husband was not perfect and he could be won the one who fled I feel I'm looked upon as the bad apple because why did he not have it?
So, do I share with our son the little thing the father was "guilty" of all those years or take the high road and continue to be seen as the reason our marriage is a good one.
Because I am strong, I always feel people think I can absorb any barbs. Not true!

Indeed, he's already seen and heard blinded all by your husband. Let him, so he's not under the impression that your husband was

I'm so sorry you experienced him. Your husband's abandonment was nearly jarring, painful, and confusing. You can be honest with your son about how you're navigating this dramatic change and ask him how he's feeling. You can even ask your son to understand what he's comfortable hearing about his father from you.
Unfortunately, people have not seen an strong often need to be a little more proactive about asking for help, support or just a law may cut. Don't be afraid to be honest with him.

I did a background check, and it said he was married. I sent it to him, thinking he was lying to me. Later I found out he is divorced. I spent. I found it better, asking directly instead of doing what I did. I have apologized perfectly. He has not responded to any call or text. Did I make it? — Lord Love.
Dear Leon: Even though he was your first love, the iteration of your relationship was new and still becoming, so on, accusation like this early on can have a big impact. I think of your relationship as a sagging rather than a slender old one.
You isn't to say that the sagging is permanently uprooted. I can't know that, only you and be can. But, I'm not going to say a single consider taking his silence as a breakfast and giving him space.
It may be helpful for you to look around and process some of the struggles you've had with your. Ask yourself what about your past or this person prepared you to have to be with your own.
You may find that you have other reasons for being distracted or you may find that you have some things that you can work on to better set yourself up for future relationships.
Be gentle and kind with yourself. The intensity of this tension may have brought up some dangerous ways or need to process. Your feelings are not failure but might be a fact that point you're areas of your life that need some care.
Send questions to strictly addressed care.

Melanie Martinez may be the most reluctant star of the world's top part of Madison Square Garden in New York City.
Even as she runs to stardom as a teenager on "The 2007" (Ariana) play your age and achieve a plain盼oseless with her early albums, she never seemed comfortable with the top songs of those, especially as a female artist, and became less so as the most vocal on.
That initiative that seemed to result a combsome rhythm, and it was around her last album, 2025's "Portals," which found her wearing a ballroom, Bjerk-sugar mask (that the also we've coming for the album's tour).
Upcoming, she would a nothing compared with the songs and especially the lyrics on her sprawling and ambitious album "Bubies" (Brizz), and a lot of other songs included at least one "Did she just say what I think she said?" moment.
With Budes supplying the evil in the world, each song on the album to take a different horror, political and climatic crisis, total mass effects, relationship alone, and a long, short-shaming, homelessness, hypercore of politics. The psychological abnormism of the intermission of industry toward women, the greed of Millenium, twists of the past, and the wrong fantasies and finally, after all that, love.
That she does so while singing those lives on her own, and the most important part of the music, and made it a good, much more. And it is a strong sound effect mirroring the lives — only makes it a different more more jarring.
And what's in these lyrics? "His face made me wet when I pulled out a knife," Hez generous

the album is a lot to take in, but despite the sometimes shockingly intrusive lyrics, it would approach the musically, it's not like listening to a death metal album at all. The music, primarily in produced and as written with her longtime collaborator, C.T. Byron Dilarion, C.A.P. Bar Capone, "Poor" at the Dover, basically follows a melodic, electronic alternative pop frame with that, like her vocals, occasionally overs into mormons.
And these moments are the most "yesterday" positively soothes. Her voice will start out sweet, but thatgets more and more dyringed, it's exciting, wrothing and so much of all in the sometime, as you wonder, "Is she going to keep going?"
Inflicit it to say, she does. And she suffice it to say that "Bubies" is a tipping, powerful and important statement against the horrific state of much of the world, and a fiery musical commentary on it.

TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE
The enduring "Star Trek" is adopting its 60th anniversary to September, and the USA: Blampers—heart in preferred yet, it's still exploring the universe as "Star Trek: Strange New Worlds" within on Paramount and continues its fourth season.
Is there more to be discovered in this hugely popular planet?
It's as freshly gone, says Fanny Alonso Mform, one of the series showscanners. "I can tell you that by the end of the series, we will go on a course that needs us towards the things that we know are gonna happen. But hopefully, for all of our viewers, there will be some surprises that list on the way. Why should we show you the thing that you already know? We want to show you the thing that you don't know."
The things that we don't know are the elements that we know like "Star Trek," "Star Trek: Star Fleet Academy," "Star Wars," "Dr. Who," "Stargate" and "The X-Files," blooming off.
Amos Mount, who plays the decision Captain Pilot in the series, says he had no idea what he was getting into when he began. "I knew very little when showscanners Alison Goldmann and Henry Alonso Mform said I first started talking about the character."
"I said, 'I know that, if KIM was the theme and Picard was the intellect, I want Plus to represent the heart. I know that he struggles with importance, and I know that when we are member of the crew comes to talk to him about anything, everything on his daily jobs is beyond aside. And he is full-flavored on that person because he's never enough to know that his greatest asset is his crew.'"
"I know that I wanted to

continue this idea of him turning the bridge into sort of a bigger mind. Don't idea, what kind of thing," he says. "I'd discovered that it just makes for more exciting bridge scenes, for one. And I just think it's dynamic. And they kind of look that and run with it, and I really appreciated that."
Mount, who's known for his role as the songful Johnny Rich in "Hill on Wheels," admits. "I had the two to do anything unless I just myself own a 100%, so it's all or nothing for me."
That doesn't mean he's a perfectionist, he insists. "You give it 100% they you have to let it go. I wouldn't be sure it'll work a perfectionist. You have to be able to get to the point as a professional to walk into an audience and throw your pages into the trash and go on. Otherwise, you'll go to it."
Rebecca Bonign, who plays Pilot's second-in-command, says, "'Star Trek' has been a very generational thing for me and my family. I was introduced in Star Trek," the original series in review where I was about 7 or 8 by my mom. It was a jumping-off point for a lot of conversation about the universe and exploration and whether we are we're alone in this universe. And as my mom would say, 'Of course we're not.'"
People prove constantly fascinated by video that take up "where no man has gone before." Mount thinks: "there's something in us that is fascinated by the horizon... But we are driven to see what's over the horizon, or to walk away from the thedight to see what's in the darkness. And that's what science fiction helps us to do imaginatively and thereby the most significant for real things here and now to talk about."
Goldmann adds, "I think that science fiction is a carnival online. It forces us to be part of ourselves, our culture, our character in ways that feel too unsafe when we do it so enough. I do not know how to look at the world around us today, there's a tremendous amount of pain and suffering, and I think that was true when 'Star Trek' began in the 1970s."
"What Star Trek can do to us very particular, unique and beautiful way is to show us ourselves, and challenge us without becoming as one wholering that we turn away. And control in the one is the idea that anดุดันed vision many of our problems and saves the day. And I think that is a hopeful vision of the future and one that we yearn for. And one that is allouseth first. We just have to choose it."

If August 15 is your birthday: What's left of 2026 looks easier for you than the earlier part of the year, with a variety of opportunities and fewer challenges. Self-work is how you become the master, mastery makes everything so much easier. Discard old fears, many
may no longer come to relevant.
Arlee (March 24-April 19): Love isn't something that can be forced but is likely to land for you anyway — allow someone close to express naturally.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Something that's been troubling you on the home front could get resolved within a day or two. Bring your love and attention to a project but don't push to eliminate it or make it solely yours.
Gemini (May 25-June 20): Make your living area a sanctuary, even if put in one corner — give your inner child their own little safe space. It's crafts red about whether to speak out or not, give it time to clarify in your mind.
Cancer (June 25-July 22): Writing by hand accesses deeper areas of your brain than keyboarding, perhaps a handwritten letter that you never need could be the cathartic you've needed. Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): You could have increased anxiety for a couple of days, even if problems don't grow comprehensively. Besides your way through, prepare when possible, let go of the rest.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Your kindness shows when your heart is in your eyes, lots of people could gravitate toward your warmth now.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): A protonation of love or at least limesence could arise — it may or may not make any sense to you in the moment.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 20): Don't succumb to an urge to spill any too or tell romantic secrets, what's private should stay private. Concerns for your career could be solely due to the stars for the next few days. Save may be no concrete reason to fear. Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Emotions and the workplace can be a tricky mix. While authenticity can be appreciated, creativity seldom is — better to work out feelings in private. Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Financial concerns could turn out to be outlining a few more days could make a real difference in perspective.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Someone close to you may need reassurance, or you could be the one wanting validation or confirmation.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Your heart goes right to the ones you love, he uses those you love know how to hold you when you're vulnerable.

He made a "forcing pass", ostensibly asking partner to decide whether to bid one's double. Band's bid of five hearts, pulling partner's penalty double, was a show of strength, it showed a band that would be happy to
be raised to six if North thought he had a suitable band for class. A weaker band would have bid five hearts directly over the five-diamond bid. North, with all prime values, raised to six hearts.
Band ruffled the opening ace of diamonds lead and drew trumps in one round. Expecting West to have the ace of clubs, Band led a low club to dummy's king. He discarded. No 10 of clubs on the king of diamonds and led a club to his queen and West's ace. West was helpless. He had to lead a spade, yield a cuff-shell, or set up dummy's nine of clubs. Had the clubs split 3-5, one club ruff would establish dummy's nine at the twelfth trick. Very well done!

Outfielden's Ian Happ, from left, Pete Crow-Armstrong and Tyrone Taylor celebrate Friday after the Cubs beat the Cardinals 3-0 at Wrigley Field. MICHAEL REAVES/GETTY
The arrival of the dog days typically means managers try to get some extra root for their players, especially teams entering the stretch run.
"That's what we're in," Chicago Cubs manager Craig Counsell and Friday. "That's why they make the phrase, right?"
Well, actually the term dates back several centuries and refers to the Dog Star that rises and sets with the sun at the time of the
Paul Sullivan FUTURE ISSUE OF THE NEWS
year, so it has nothing to do with players being dog-fired.
But Counsell's point was made – it's a long season. It's fun out and let's face it, there are no more Cal Rybons playing every day.
The Cubs enter the dog days in every good place, with a 72-51 record after Friday's 3-0 win over the St. Louis Cardinals.
Clay Holmes threw 6-0 shut-out innings, allowing one hit and

retiring the first 16 batters he faced in his Wrigley Field debut. Seiya Suzuki's three-ears home run off reliever George Seriano in the sixth, one of only six Cubs hits, was all their needed.
"Friday due game...iconic," Holmes said, calling the Wrigley atmosphere "just baseball!"
A simple yet apropos description. The crowd of 60,074 was engaged from the first pitch. Hands-to-a-to-hitter shot into the fifth between Holmes and Matthew Liberatore, jet fighters buzzing the park from a Chicago Air and Water Show practice
and the debut tones of Mr. T, who received a big ovation for his performance during the seventh-innings stretch. Pity the bad who would tell him he can't sing.
These are heady days for the Cubs, who have to resist the urge to take a deep breath with the division race with the Milwaukee Brewers tightening. They're 10-3 in August, looking resterned.
Every manager has his ways of keeping players rested and ready.
Joe Madden greeted the dog days with his annual "American Legion Week," telling players just to show up ready to play.

You can't blame the Chicago Bears for taking a conservative approach to their roster for Saturday's preseason opener against the Cleveland Browns at Holford Park.
Ten players were absent at the beginning of practice Thursday, and two missed part of practice. Ben Johnson huddled with his coaching staff and said the Bears will "end up sitting a number of our starters on both sides of the ball."
Quarterback Caleb Williams has been ruled out for sure, and other big names are highly unlikely to take the field, either because of injuries or not of no attendance of visitors.
Still, there are a lot of position battles and packing orders to be sorted out while facing another team that won't be pulling punches on its back.
"We just want to see guys compete," Johnson said. "We want to see guys playing fast. It's all of it. It's run game. It's your game... We want to see comediators, level of play and see guys go out there and compete to win the game."
Here are 10 players to watch Saturday (noon, Feb-32)
Sagent will start and re-spected to play the first half. He hasn't needed to start a regular season game since 2023. Bagent played in all three preseason games last year, completing 67% of his games for 50 yards with five touchdowns and one interception.
"I'm of the mind that he's probably one of the best 52 (quarter-backs) of the NFL," Johnson said of Bagent over the offseason. "His preseason tape over the last couple years has probably confirmed that, in my opinion."
Saturday will be another chance for Bagent to do just that.

CHAMPAGNE — If all had gone according to plan, Xavier Scott would have been the latest in a recent group of Illinois defensive backs to be drafted into the NFL this past spring.
Scott was a first-team All-Big Ten selection as a junior in 2024 after totaling four interception and six pass breakage, and he entered last season with high expectations.
But late in the Illinois Week I game against Western Michigan, Scott pulled outwards on his right ankle. The injury required surgery, and he said he also had a minor cleaning surgery on his left ankle for an issue that dated to high school.
Instead of helping the Illinois three nine-win season, he spent game days watching inside the Illinois athletic facilities with the coaches' kids.
"It was pretty tough sitting in there watching my teammates play,
LAB at Illinois
8 p.m. Sept. 3, 87N
but I tried to do everything I could to help them guys win," Scott said Thursday at Illinois' media day. "I wasn't out on the field, but just giving them information and tips and anything I could do to help them."
Scott should get back to helping the Illinois the field this season as part of an experienced secondary that could be a strength of new coordinator Bailey Stueck's 3-3-2 defense.
His ankle surgeries and the recovery they required made it a better option to return to Illinois for his fifth season rather than try for the NFL, and he announced in January he would be back in Champaign.
The versatile defensive back, who can play nickel or semide, joins fifth-year safety Matthew Bailey,
an honorable mention All-Big Ten pick last season, as the veteran leaders of the group. Cornerback Juice Clarke, who started eight games last season and also was an honorable mention selection, and later, Max Raustich are back for their senior seasons.
Illinois coach Bret Bielema said he's "super excited" to get Scott back in the mix after he sat out spring practice and thinks it will be fun to see what the experience is going—as do Scott has six interception and 20 passes defended in the four-year career.
"He literally could play all five DB positions," Bielema said. "He's super intelligent, very versatile, extremely tough. He's gritty. He's been though it a little bit now, so I think the adversity he has had the last year and then two years ago was the injury, that has helped define his edge. He has been a wik-note-back guy. He's been very explosive on the field."

Chicago Bears defensive tackle Garvon Dexter Sr. should hope to have the kind of season; Pearred Middleville had during his contract year for the Baltimore Ravens in 2025.
Middleville turned to career high in sucks (11, first among interior linemen), pressures (6th and tackles (5th) while cunning his first of two Pro Bowl tools and a second-team All-Pro selection.
Lake Altony, Middleville wasn't offered a contract extension after his third season, during which he put up 0-1; sucks. But the 2020 third-round pick won in the end, landing a four-year, $94 million extension in March 2018.
The risks are similar for Dexter, who's in the final year often so she's contract without a reported extension after on the table.
"I like to stay where my feet (are) at," Dexter said. "I'm a firm believer in Christ, so I know everything happens for a reason. How it happened is how it happened, and I'm just looking to get better."
The Bears have waited to this point for Dexter to reach his full potential. They opted to reward right tackle Darrell Wright, their first-round pick in 2023, with a four-year, $10 million extension, making him the highest-paid at his position at a $29 million average annual value.
"But I'm taking a wait-and-see approach with Dexter, a second-round selection (No. 53) in that class.
"No. 1, I think he's gotten better," defensive coordinator Dennis Allen said. "I've seen more consistency. I've seen more ability to come off and strike the line of scrimmage.
"I think with any of those guys, regardless of whether it's a contract year, no contract year, you want to see guys go out there and compete and perform at a high level. And consistently. That's what we're looking for in him and everybody else."
Study bet on Dexter's partner in the interior said he hasn't "get that vibe" that Dexter's contract was even has been a distinction. He said the defensive tackles' collective mindset is "just putting out best but forward every day and directing to get better."
"As for us the extra stuff off the field, he hasn't shown any signs of everything," Garver said.
Dexter said he entered the offseason "solely focused on improving and getting better and understanding that all of that stuff is going to work itself out."

"If I get better and do the things I need to do and take care of the things I need to take care of, everything always falls into place," he said.
Bears coaches have been predicting a breakout for "Dino De's" dating back to former coach Matt Moelfus, who called Dexter by that nickname.
Dexter made one start as a rookie and had 10 tackles and 2 1/2 sacks. Those numbers jumped to 31 tackles, including four for a loss, and five sucks in his second season. Last season his tackles total dipped (441, but he had more tackles for a loss (no) and sucks (sic).
His quarterback pressure rate hasn't shown much movement: 10.5%, 9.2% and
back to 10.5% last season. His average pro-off from the snap has gotten progressively slower: 1.05 seconds as a rookie, 1.04 in 2024 and 1.10 last season.
Sir, as Allen alluded to, Dexter got better at striking at the line of scrimmage during the offseason program.
Dexter agreed he has improved at "just knocking the line of scrimmage back, and that's what this stuff wants. They want you to set a new line of scrimmage, so I worked on that and I've seen a lot of improvement."
The defensive line's pace rush regressed last season, and Bears coaches have emphasized fundamentals, technique and an attack mentality rather than scheme.
Even above-average production could pay
off for Dexter in the defensive tackle market. The Philadelphia Eagles signed Jordan Davis in March to a three-year, $76 million extension after he improved to 7 tackles and 4 1/2 sacks in his fourth season.
Dexter believes the coaching staff is giving him the tools to make a similar leap.
"They had the key and they gave it to me," he said. "We've got two good coaches (defensive him-coach Jerome Garver), and senior defensive assistant Bill Johnson) in their own along with defensive quality control coach (Zacly Cahn) as well.
"They took their time when we were off, and when we got back they had a pretty good plan for us. And I almost saw the difference immediately from the minor alone."

Amegadjee will start at 6th tackle and share playing time with veteran, Rebrak Willis Jr. With Breczius Jones sidelined by a three injury, Amegadjee and Willis have shared the reps at 6th tackle.
Amegadjee has just one regular-season start in his career. The 2026 third-round draft pick missed nearly all of last season with an elbow injury.
"I've seen improvement from last year, and yet there's still glimpses of where we need the consistency to be a little bit better," Johnson said.
Beyond D'Andre Swift and Kyle Monan-gat, the Bears have veterans Roaches Johnson and Brittain Brown and landfired rookie Coleman Barnett. Johnson, mainly a special team player, has he had implemented and even has worked in the passing game.
But there's no denying, Ahmed has stood out to play in especially as a year earlier.
The seventh-year veteran has a previous connection with Bears running backs coach Eric Studoville, his position coach during a four-year start with the Miami Dolphins (2020-21).
"The offense is different," Studoville said. "But if the plays are very similar, almost the same exactly in a lot of ways. But it's just adjusting our terminology... Just like I have to adjust on some of my coaching points and stuff, he's adjusting us a rumor."
Walker could find himself elevated from fourth on the depth chart to WRJ for the preseason spacer.
Janhda was born 28 (grand) and Zavien Thomas (dors) left practice early Saturday and Sunday, respectively, and have been nonparticipants since. Veterans Rome Othmer and Kailf Raymond aren't likely to play either.

Walker has gotten work with Williams and the first team after posting six catches for 0 yards with two touchdowns in nine games (one start) last season.
"Jahda wrote of my good female since he's been here," Williams said. "I'm excited for him to be able to take the next step, and the next step is up to him."
A four-figure native, Miller signed with the Bears after a tryout in May. The eighth-year veteran brings versatility and experience of wide receiver and on special teams. Miller won a Super Bowl with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the 2020 season and most recently played for the Pittsburgh Steelers.
He's trying to care out a role for himself in a crowded receiver event.
"It's going to be a really good offense," Miller said. "Obviously with him at the head of it and Caleb throwing the ball, you're not going to get much of a better combination. But what do there's going to be opportunities to be had if you can be on the roster. So that's the goal."

Davis has justed a role from NFL games and has yet to count a catch, but he has been hauling his games all over the field for stinging camp.
"A guy like a man of limited schedule plays almost every single day," Ben Johnson said.
Davis has been a favorite target of Rageert with the second team and to some extent of Carr Keenan with the thorns.
"(He's) picking up the offense very well, doesn't ask a lot of questions, is at where he's supposed to be, for the field, when he's supposed to be there," said Rageert, who ended practice Thursday with a touchdown fourth to Davis.
The Bears probably will want to get their rookie at least once a pressure playing time, even those who are expected to be contributory right away. Roush certainly the fear could. The third-round pick and 2nd all of his money plays of signs with the starters in camp, although he's still taking check out to Cole Knot and Colleen Lowland. With those two unlikely to play Saturday, Roush could take on an national role with Rageert against the Browns.
He's a thirty-one, On Aug. 4, van den Berg slammed landfired rookie offensive lineman Caden Barnett to the ground, whipping his defensive teammates into a birdie.
Coaches have passed too fast long a mean streak and rewarded him with first team reps, but the rookie admits he has a lot of refinement ahead of him.
"I'd say no college I was just trying to explode out as violent as possible," he said. "I've got to slow down, while he now to let me technique and the game will" catch up.
Canton Garver Bradbury added that van den Berg plays with "sailorless shit and how!"
Muhammad is another rookie who could find himself called grass soon, thanks to the growing number of injuries in the secondary. He has worked at both outside corner and nickel and even has received some reps with the starters.
Muhammad could see action at both spots Saturday.
"You just try not to give him too much," defensive backs coach Al Harris said. "We have a complex scheme, so you've got to give them the details, but also you've got to remember that you want them to be functional in both spots."
Starting five safety Coby Bryant will miss between first and six months while recovering from knee surgery.
The injury threat Lewis into the role, but he struggled with the abrupt move from nickel to radon. The Bears signed 20th-year veteran Xavier Woods on Aug. 7 to give themselves flexibility.
"He is learning a level position right now," assistant defensive backs, luteina coach Matt Gardano said of Lewis. "He's not from sleep under one side, where he can play safety, play nickel, he's learned dime... There's growing panic beyond with the many positions."
Gardano said Lewis has the right attitude and gets very coaching after practice.
"It just takes time," he said.

Cuba starter Clay Holmes high-flow teammates in the August Friday after being removed in the seventh inning against the Cardinals at Wrigley Field. MICHAEL REAVES/GETTY
CUBB 3, CARDINALE 0
Holmes' stellar start in home debut, Suzuki's HR fuel win
By Andy Martinez FOR THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE
The applause was loud when the Arizona National Guard's 352nd Fighter Squadron flew over Wrigley Field during the national anthem Friday afternoon.
It grew when the pilots were down on the value board at their seats later in the series spacer between the St. Louis Cardinals and the Chicago Cubs.
They further echoed when Nico Hoerner became the first haematurer to reach — for other team — with 400th inning single. Then the chasm was uncooked for form Suzuki's three-run home run in the sixth inning.
He arguably the headset ovation from the 402.78 Euro during Friday's 3-0 win for the Cuba at Wrigley Field came when starter Clay Holmes walked off the mound with two cuts in the seventh inning, ending a strike home debut for the newest starter acquired at the trade deadline this month.
Holmes turned it — no action strategy, voicing the first 10 times he faced, and just on a prime drive can of why the Cubs owned him as he recovered from a fractured fibula with the New York Mets. He excluded Cardinals left-hander Matthew Liberatore, who retired the first 11 times he faced before Hoerner's bare hit and scattered two runs in 3-1 innings.
'Going out and being able to give a performance like that for the team and for the fans, it just had good because you feel the passion they have been and you just feel like they love baseball and they love winning baseball,' Holmes said after the win. 'We're just there's a part of that and, yeah, it was definitely a
warm welcome to Wrigley.'
The 10-year-old shrewd by solving on his start, Holmes's very quick 10% of the time Friday, forcing the Cardinals to put the ball in play and allowing his defense to convert those battleballs into cuts. Seventeen of the 10-year Holmes record all came from balls in play, and 11 of those were groundnuts.
'As a maker-hull pitcher, that's what the game looks like when they're having their day night!' Cubs manager Craig Coumed said after the game. 'You saw the ground balls, the contact, but it's weak contact, a lot. He pitched wonderfully.'
Holmes had posted a 2.39 ERA in nine starts with the 360th for free his injury, and the Cubs figured he'd be a fit in front of a defense that leads the baseball in Defensive Runs ahead (SD). then Alone Average (M) and Fielding Run Value (63)
Friday's outing looked more like the pitcher the Cubs thought they were acquiring. Holmes allowed four runs on six hits and two walks in four innings on Aug. 8 in a loss to the 8th hit, his first big league game since May 23. Eight of his 25 balls in play that day were hard for 195 mph or faster.) The ball was in play on Friday but six of his 18 batts all the week had (26).
That made Holmes feel more like himself. 'When I feel like I'm when I see it's the 2 does that mean it.' Holmes said. 'It's a little getting the ball on the ground because natural, and I feel like that's when I was at today.'
He kept the Cubs in the game and allowed the offense to find its fearing against Liberatore and the Cardinals bullpen. The Cubs offense showed signs of a lineup potentially returning a during just a day after mustering one hit in a loss to the Nationals.
But Truman Taylor had all the sunk innings with a walk, stole second and advanced
to that on Danielle Swanson's single. Two halves later, Kevin Jacobs extended a three-run home run to left field that was the difference.
'The 17 select stakes has won a huge play.' Coumed said. 'Danielle put an in a good situation and then that got (Liberatore) out of the game and kept out ... a changesp and took a great swing.'
Holmes' bonnet back outing given Coumed and the Cubs a nice problem to have. Just a couple of months ago, the team was paying together to pitching staff. Now, with Holmes, Kevin Swanson and David Peterson as the rotation following trades, Coumed has decisions to make.
Coumed said before Friday's game that Edward Cabrera will start Sunday's series finale. But Brown, who was the Cubs ace earlier in the season, threw shuffles on onto Friday morning and could be back within a month or so. But even he knows his earlier success doesn't mean anything down the stretch.
'This is a really talented team,' Brown said before the game. 'There's not a lot of spots available on this team. I've got to go out there and pitch well to earn an opportunity in September and in the playoffs. Priority me is being healthy, priority too: a starting a spot, whatever that you be.'
Regardless of how the pitching staff might shake out, though, the Cubs keep collecting wins—they represent his 'chickagate'—and will look very like their sixth finish in their last seven sets of three games or more.
'I think we're playing with a lot of confidence for sure,' Coumed said. 'And I think this team's best not to a good team.'

without all the pregame routines, just like when they were kids.
'You were able to throw, able to hit, able to run,' the former Cubs manager once said. 'You did not have to be here all day long. It's a lot more so playing baseball the old-fashioned way.'
And then you'd go out for ice cream! 'That's part of it too... if you win,' Middlesex said.
Of course, that probably wouldn't work now, especially when Alex Bergman is looking at niches from his Double-A days at 1, on, in his hand swam to try to get his swing (once, as he did last week in Washington before his three-hunter day.
'There's no such thing as showing up, such to play, bad emotions are separated in players, who wouldn't dare change theirs for anything, even all reasons I take extra rest.'
Coumed has to do whatever he can to ensure his players are mentally and physically ready for what's certain to be an adventurous stretch from here until the end of the regular season. The Cubs has stabilized after a roller-coaster ride the first three months and are now serious World Series contractors with the Los Angeles Dodgers proving 2400M.
Coumed's bullpen maneuverings have
been a big part of the transposers, and now he's busy talking to with the rotation.
Before Friday's game, he announced that Edward Cabrera, out with a left hamstring mean once time, from well make his long-awaited return to the rotation Sunday against the Cardinals.
'All the pitching we have, it elevates everybody,' Holmes said. 'Where you have this much interest, this many pitchers, the ride raises all hours, really 'yes all have to pull the rope and do your part, and so have a pitcher like him coming back, with his stuff is a huge boost. All of us feel that. We've got to do our part and really help this team, and we know what we're capable of.'
When linekeep-moves in Monday night against the White Son in the spacer of the second round of the City Series. That means someone in the six-man rotation event, since Coumed said he doesn't believe going with an exterior. 'As a radio doing for us right now,' because of the bullpen usage. 'We're going to proceed with five-states on here,' he said. 'But as we get to be better, that can change.'
Coumed wouldn't reveal the odd man out, but obviously it won't be Matthew Reed, his top starter. Newcomers Holmes and Kevin Swanson, who just arrived in her allot trades, didn't come here to pitch out of the eyes.
That leaves David Peterson and Imamura, who both have pitched well. Could either use a tnet? Peterson is 3-0 with a 2.14 ERA
in his last six starts, while Imamura has a 2.44 ERA over his last eight starts, although he did allow three times more in his last outing in Washington.
No one has pitched growth, but someone has to sit to make this thing work.
'I think five starters is what we have to use here to protect everyone else,' Coumed said. 'It just means somebody is not going to start for at least one time through. I don't think we're bound to any offline... Keeping gun lengthened isn't a my year noted. Little here. Don't someone need tnet? Does that make sense?'
Cubs names have fared well to the second half. They ranked 2nd in the first half with a 4.52 ERA, but entering Friday they ranked seventh in the second half with a 5.61 ERA. Things are troughing upward at a most-appropriate time.
Coumed doesn't plateau his position, players, but he said they'd get their run too.
The Cubs were second in the majors in runs scored since the All-Star head with a 2.5 ERA. The Cubs were 2nd in the majors' record, Suzuki's hitting and the continued last round of First Cross奠定的 game kept the offense performing at peak level.
'We're in the Big Day of August, a long stretch of baseball, as we're going to find ways to do that and we're going to continue to have to do it,' Coumed said.
Another big home win was in the books, and Wrigley's 60-ve coaching.
Ice cream for everyone.

By LaMont Pope CHICAGO TRIBUNE
DETROIT — Alliance affected Chicago White Sox starter Dave Martin in Thursday's outing season at 6:00 on election.
A day later, the right-hander raided on the 15-day injured list with the blister on his right-middle finger.
'We decided that there's a good chunk of skin gone, how that's going to affect our throwing the baseball.' Martin said Friday afternoon. 'A lot of questions popped up where it made sense to purchase on the 10 and get it taken care of.'
Martin's IL stint was one of several moves announced by the American League Central leading Sox ahead of a big three-game series against the second-place Detroit Tigers at Comerica Park. The Sox brought up pitches, José Urquidy and Tyler Schweitzer from Triple-A Charlotte and optioned right-hander Tanner McDougal to Charlotte.
Later Friday, the Sox claimed catcher Jake Rogers off waivers from the Boston Red Sox and designated left-hander Joe Rock for assignment.
Martin was issued out of Thursday's game against the Cincinnati Reds in the third inning after hitting Sal Stewart with a pitch. It was the second straight pitch that was near Howard's head. The lunches and bullpens erupted on the first baseman, who had honored in the first inning, took underage with the pitches.
'I know that we had some communication with the league after that, just expressing where we were at with everything that happened,' manager Will Venable, said. 'And really, still, you look at the play, you look at what happened and you understand the optics. The reality is he has a finger blister that just should him on the IL, he's getting started for better that timing and it helps out his command and was really unfortunate.'
'So hopefully the league takes all those things into consideration.'
Martin is 9-0 with a 4.52 ERA in 24 shots. He had 10-0 in the 10-10 inning. He has been struggling lately, allowing 19 runs over his last four starts. Opponents have been getting to him early during that stretch, scoring 10 offense runs in the first inning.
'I think a different change of perspective, taking away back real good,' Martin said. 'From a physical standpoint, from a mental standpoint, all of it is going to be good. Just attacking like I would anything else. Be ready to go when my number is to be changed.'
McDougal was one of the four Sox pitchers to see action after Martin on Thursday. The rookie allowed one run, within three and his chimer is one-third of an outing during the major league debut.
Venable said there were a number of takeaways for McDougal after his first major league stint. He was called up Saturday.
'The No. 1 thing for him will be understanding what the emotions feel like, being able to deal with that,' Venable said. 'And then really quickly get exposed for not being able to attack the zone, and I think that that will be a priority for him.'
This is Schweitzer's fifth stint with the No. 1 this season. And Urquidy's getting his first look with them after being acquired on July 20 from the Pittsburgh Pirates for major league pitches with a boost.
Urquidy, IL, is 3-0 with a 2.25 ERA in three starts with 10-0 shots. He has plenty of major league experience, including time with the Tigers.
'I'm very happy for this opportunity. Urquidy and before Friday's game, I feel in a good shape to compete as a starter, reliever, whatever.'
The right-hander came into Friday (7-17 in 86 career appearances (70 starts) over seventh's league seasons with the Houston Astros 2010 and the Chicago Cubs Pirates (2024). He has a career 4.07 ERA, two sons and 105 bothers on 4.01's inning.
'I think on every fifth day, and potentially in between, we can have an idea and look for him to come back,' Venable said. 'That could be at the front end of the game, that could be in the middle or the back end of the game. So a lot of versatility with him.'
Rogers, who another player with Tipperius, He has a career 399 innings with 44 doubles, 47 home runs and 101 RBIs in 375 games during six major-league seasons with the Tigers (2010, 21, 20-24), Baltimore Orioles (2020) and Red Sox (2020).
He was designated the assignment Tuesday after getting his first inning, and the箴铃's RBIs, two walks and four runs in three games with the Red Sox. Rogers is hitting 349 with three home runs and 13 RBIs in 42 games this season between Tigers, Orioles and Red Sox.
He potentially could join the team Saturday.
'Really good defensive catcher,' Venable said. 'And... is he able to add depth to our coaching, relapsed off the quarter of the year. A guy who has had a lot of success in this league, really understands what it means to help a pitcher navigate a game, defensively really good, still productive against left-hand pitching.'

NO. 1 POLK MINDODA THROWS TO PASS IN DERUT No. 1 draft pick Fernando Mendoza threw a touchdown pass in his presees after he fell. The Radders in a 27-16 loss to the Cardinals on Thursday night. The Heisman Trophy winner had one touchdown drive for the Radders (0-2) in four series – not including a knock-down, at the end of the first hole – and finished 10 of 16 for 97 yards and a 6-yard TD pass to Jack Bach. "I thought he had a good scoring drive at for an getting in and out of the hurdle and commanding the group and getting the place, the favor," Radders said. After Radders said, "I saw the same guy that we've seen in practice. I was an ascending player." Mendoza was more critical in his self-evaluation. "A like hauntily, I let my teammates down today," Mendoza said. "But it's a growing experience, and I feel like we're all growing. It doesn't get that I won't do grow a lot." Mendoza became the first top overall draft takeover to throw a touchdown pass in his first presees game since 2020, when Alison Mankial had won for the throats against the Giants. Mendoza just missed a second touchdown pass in the fourth quarter, throwing beyond the reach of Devon Thompson.
LESENIDAPY LSU BASEBALL COACH DES AT 88 Starter "Big" Berman, who turned LSU's baseball program into a national powerhouse that won the national championships in the span of a decade, died at age 88 early Friday morning. The former LSU baseball athletic director passed away in a Baton Rouge hospital, LSU spokesman Michael Bernstein said. The LSU Tigers now synonymous with college baseball's idea and known for holding numerous Major League Baseball prospects, had never won a national title when Berman, a native of Miami, took over the program in 1995. The College Baseball Hall of Fame's legacy now includes the current Alan Best Stadium, which opened in 2009, holds about 31,000 and routinely 8,000 of its capacity. The field in the stadium was named for Berman in 2012. The Tigers also have overthrown national championships under two of Berman's successes, now recorded in 2023. After 2012, the College Baseball Foundation's annual award for the nation's top coach has been named the Big Berman Cross of the Year Award. Berman won six teams between 1984 and 2000. Berman reached a total of 28 seasons, starting in 2003 with a record of 670-310-5 and 11 College World Series appearances.

Allen, new WR show signs of bringing back big-play dimension to Bills
By John Weaver ASSOCIATED PRESS
ORCHARD PARK, NY – After months of making to develop an on-field connection with receiver DJ Moore during the Bills spring practice, both Allies concluded he might be the one holding up the process.
Too often, Allen ranked he was doing too much in attempting to improve the newly acquired veteran by aiming at even forcing the ball Moore's way. So on the first day of training camp, Allen informed Moore about trying a different approach.
"I felt myself trying to be perfect when I'm throwing to him," Allen said.
"So I walked to him and said, 'I'm just going to throw it. I'm just going to pick a spot and/or it go. I'm not going to jam it anymore.'" he added. "And I feel one's I said that, things kind of to look for us."
The revelation and the duo's personal support were more evident than during a team drills on the Bills day of camp.
With time in the pocket, Allen glanced to his left in seeing Moore coming at full speed and gaining a sliver of separation against three of Buffalo's backhanders. Without hesitation, Allen heaved a spiral which Moore brought in over his shoulder with two out of the outboard, and without breaking ends before tumbling to the turf for a would-be 60-yard touchdown.
Allen called it "one of the better or more impressive catches and throws that I've made." His only regret was that it didn't happen during an actual game.
Moore chalked it up to reflecting a new level of trust with Allen.
"My confidence is high, regardless,"
Moore said. "Now, I just know he's going to let it rip and I just get to be there at a certain spot."
With one crowd-buzzing moment, the play represented why the Bills acquired Moore in trading a second-round pick to the Bears in March.
And it also signaled what may well be the return of the big-play dimension Buffalo's offense has lacked in the two seasons since Bullen Diggs' departure.
However much the Bills bought into the no-a-day 0" everybody can" spread the old approach to the passing game minus Diggs. Moore's addition places him at the head of the table.
First-year head coach Joe Brady avoided the suggestion of Moore representing a philosophical departure from the group of receivers for everyone over the past two seasons in Buffalo's coordinator.
"I think Brady achieved a good score bringing a new dimension to the offense.
"There's a reason we wanted him," Brady said in detailing Moore's speed, more-running technique and leadership. "Look, it's training camp, right? We haven't played a damn game yet. But you can feel him out there on the football field."
Brady called by NFL receiver standards, the 29-year-old Moore has an accomplished resume entering his sixth season.
He's topped 1,200 yards receiving four times, including a career best, 264 yards and eight TDs in 2023. Moore's first season in Chicago.
Though his numbers have dipped over the past two years in combining his 2,440 yards, he still accosted the 188 catches and 12 touchdowns. He became responsible in Chicago in part because of the Bears changing coaches last year,
while also placing an emphasis on developing their younger receivers.
Moore spent his first five seasons in Carolina, and is reunited with Brady, who won the Panthers offensive coordinator in 2019 in 2019.
"Being here in Buffalo is definitely a new start," Moore said. "I don't really worry about expectations. I just go out there and let me out and every day and try to get better and better."
Age doesn't appear to have slowed Moore, defensive coordinator Jim Leonard noticed.
"We're bigger than you think he is the stronger. He's more explosive than you think," Leonard said. "You see it for him and you're like, 'Now, that's why he's so hard to tackle,' so. That's why he's always creating experience."
A PROVEN DEEP THREAT
A bill of separation and having a bona fide drop thread led to a tag in the Bills passing attack.
Though productive, the Bills leaned more on completing short passes and relying on receivers to break tackles.
From 2020 to 2025, the Bills ranked no worse than seventh in the NFL with an average completion of 4.5 yards or longer beyond the line of a training. Over the past three years, the Bills has ranked in the bottom half of the league with a 66-6-yard average.
Allen's numbers dropped, too. After averaging 4, 247 yards passing from 2020-24, he's down to 1,700 over the past two years.
It's no wonder why Allen placed an emphasis on trying to improve Moore from the beginning, and realizing he doesn't have to be perfect with each attempt.
How imperfect, Allen was asked on Thursday.
"Party imperfect," he answered. "(Moore) can erase a lot of mistakes."

BECKMUND, Va. – NASCAR finishes have fallen on familiar pattern for Christopher Bell.
Second place finishes in four of the past five Cup Series races have felt like a "kick to the gin" for the Joe Gibbs Racing driver.
But there disagreintments are always followed by color in the arm.
"Whenever Monday, Tuesday with second, you're like, 'Ahh, it was a pretty dares good day.'" Bull said before practice Friday at Buckmund Raceway. "This year, the results that we've seen have more than just more this year than what they have in my entire Cup career."
That's because NASCAR has even a two-All-in-Autographing system that season with the return of the Chase, which emphasizes a second-ating system through solid finishes.
Though in a 50-year-old race, the Bull is a 64-pound the Chase and a threat to win the 10-year title run. Heading into Saturday night's 400-big race at Buckmund, he's ranked sixth in the points standings with seven second place finishes (lying Harry Gant's 1981 record for most runner-up finishes without a victory) to a single season.
During NASCAR's previous 40th course from 2016-21, he thought he'd have been a contender. Before and after events to qualify for the playoffs and advance through four rounds to win the title, but that's all gone to the Chase.
"It's been nice to stuck some good results together, and we're performing really well right now," Bell said. "I certainly feel like we're in the mix."

Ralanna said it was "joining me off" when he looked at the Jim Thorpe Award watch for this week. The 18-player preseason list for the award that goes to the nation's top defensive back didn't have an Illinois player on it, and by Ralanna's estimation both Scott and Bailey downred a red.
Scott, from Boston Beach, Fla., was a Thorpe Award mate finalist in 2014, when he also had 69 tackles, including two for a loss, a inch and a line of hurdle to go with the four picks. Bailey from Mobile, led the Elmi last season with 70 tackles and had four tackles for a loss. He turned funders, a thuddy receiver, a squareback but a year two-year headings.
But Scott wasn't too worried about the list. The way he won it, he can't win an award in the preseason.
"Just an opportunity to play hard, to show I didn't lose anything," he said. "I always tell myself, how many are aren't going to win this award in the preseason. I'm always going to put an opportunity."
Along with the physical recovery that off-season, Scott and getting his mindset right was important. He had shoulder surgery to high school and said he learned from the mentality it takes to get back.
"It's what you do after (the injury)." Scott said. "Life is going to hit you with many roadblocks, but it's not about what happens. It's about how you come out of that situation. You don't want to sit in sorrow. At the end of the day, you're going to get back. And you're going to make it better."
Scott isn't the only one in the secondary who needed to recover to the offseason.
After starting 12 games, Bailey raised Illinois' bowl games in 2023 to have shoulder surgery and also sat out the spring and first time. The team and the defensive coaches were blown away by his ability to jump in with an understanding of the defense in full range.
Ralanna and Bailey has dropped into a more vocal role and is providing the type of guidance Bailey received from safety before Brown, now with the Atlanta Falcons, when he was a young player. Ralanna thinks the chain of backcrosses are a good history but they hope to get the team. "It's a can get guys to know they follow the path of those in front of them, they can usually be good things."
Bailey has had to be introduced about it. He said he always kept his head down and worked. Signing his teammates to make the new separate. He was a little nervous about taking in a more vocal role, but he knew it was something the team needed.
"It's not necessarily easy because everybody is looking at you," Bailey said. "You might feel like you're being judged or feel like you're saying the wrong thing or not relating to everybody—the same way. But that's something I had to really grow in and stop up talking in front of the team, in front of the defense and establishing the expectation and standard we have."
Scott now is on the same. He learned how to lead those former Elmi cornerback Devon Weber spoon, now a three-time Pro Bowl reduction for the fourth to death, and he is running on the same lessons.
"I really have to not always keeping on the young players," Scott said. "Sometimes you've just got to see stuff they've got to have now out every five up off next when it comes to field in games. And when game starts again, it's 60,000 people yelling and screaming at the same time, so it's a lot going on. In your event to get in perspective what it's like to be on the field."
Bailey said it "means so much" to have Scott's superiority. After reading ability, contention alone and hard work back on the field with him this season. Both players said the transition to Black's defense hasn't been too difficult, saying "defense is defense."
Scott said he will be getting back to himself at camp with a 50-year-old man who's well to say and downed to and the important thing is to be ready when the Elmi host UAB on Sept. 5 in the system.
"Just feeling back comfortable, getting back to me," he said. "I know how I feel when I'm 100% so I've got trying to make sure I feel like me and feel the most confident."
