The brains in mice benefit from an active and varied lifestyle by forming enhanced neural connections. Researchers in Germany compared the brain activity of mice raised in different environments and found those raised in an 'enriched' environment had more activity in their hippocampus, suggesting the presence of a more robust and connected neural network. Because of its central role in learning and memory, the human hippocampus is frequently affected by degenerative brain diseases like Alzheimer's. "The results by far exceeded our expectations," says neuroscientist and biomedical engineer Hayder Amin from the German Center for Neurodegenerative Diseases (DZNE), "Simplified, one can say that the neurons of mice from the enriched environment were much more interconnected than those raised in standard housing." The findings, based on Amin and colleagues' "brain-on-chip" technology and computational analysis tools, could help to support and prevent brain dysfunctions and lead to new brain-inspired artificial intelligence methods. "We have uncovered a wealth of data that illustrates the benefits of a brain shaped by rich experience," says Gerd Kempermann, an adult neurogenesis researcher at DZNE. The scientists compared brain tissue from two groups of 12-week-old mice whose experiences began from six weeks of age. One group lived in standard cages that had no special features or fun activities to partake in, just food, water, and nesting materials. The other group had the time of their lives in larger cages with toys, tunnels, plastic tubes fashioned into mazes, extra nesting material, and little houses, which sure does sound like a great weekend, even for a human. The researchers examined brain tissue using a complementary metal–oxide–semiconductor (CMOS) based neurochip with 4,096 electrodes to record the firing of thousands of neurons at once. They were able to measure connectivity between the entire hippocampus and the brain's outer layer that governs a whole heap of cognition processes, which they grouped into six interconnected hippocampal-cortical regions. "No matter which parameter we looked at, a richer experience literally boosted connections in the neuronal networks," says Amin. "These findings suggest that leading an active and varied life shapes the brain on whole new grounds." It's been known for some time that our experiences leave a mark on our brain's connectivity, but this demonstrates just how significant those marks can be. "All we knew in this area so far has either been taken from studies with single electrodes or imaging techniques like magnetic resonance imaging," Kempermann explains. "Here, we can literally see the circuitry at work down to the scale of single cells." Amin, Kempermann, and the rest of the team hope their tools could be expanded to look at how social interactions, physical activity, and learning processes, all of which have a big impact on how the brain works, affect the brain's function. Of course, the results were seen in mice brains, not humans, but studying the entire hippocampus gives them a larger-scale view of functional connectivity. The scientists think that mapping and understanding how experiences change the connectome could help find the mechanisms that cause brain dysfunctions and identify new targets for more effective treatments in the future. Their platform could lay the groundwork for prosthetic devices that mimic brain functions to restore and improve memory capabilities lost due to aging or disease. "This paves the way to understand the role of plasticity and reserve formation in combating neurodegenerative diseases, especially with respect to novel preventive strategies," Kempermann says. "Also, this will help provide insights into disease processes associated with neurodegeneration, such as dysfunctions of brain networks." The study has been published in Biosensors and Bioelectronics.

Last week, a group of South Korean physicists made a startling claim. In two papers uploaded to the arXiv preprint server, they say they have created a material that "opens a new era for humankind". LK-99, a lead-based compound, is purportedly a room-temperature, ambient-pressure superconductor. Such a material, which conducts electricity without any resistance under normal conditions, could have huge implications for energy generation and transmission, transport, computing and other areas of technology. The papers have sparked wild enthusiasm online, and several efforts to replicate the work. At the same time, there are reports of disputes among the Korean researchers over whether the research should have been released at all. Today might have seen the biggest physics discovery of my lifetime. I don't think people fully grasp the implications of an ambient temperature / pressure superconductor. Here's how it could totally change our lives. — Alex Kaplan (@alexkaplan0) July 26, 2023 Why superconductors are so super When an electric current flows through an ordinary conductor like a copper wire, the electrons bump into atoms as they jostle along. As a result, the electrons lose some energy and the wire heats up. In a superconductor, electrons move without any resistance. Superconducting wires can transmit electricity without losing energy, and superconducting magnets are powerful enough to levitate trains and contain the fierce plasmas in fusion reactors. However, all known superconductors require very low temperatures (typically lower than –100 ℃) or extremely high pressures (more than 100,000 times ordinary atmospheric pressure). These restrictions make superconductors expensive and impractical for many applications. Several teams of researchers have claimed to detect room-temperature superconductivity in various substances in the past, but none of the claims have withstood scrutiny. As recently as last week, a superconductivity paper by American physicist Ranga Dias was retracted amid suspicions of data fabrication. So while a room-temperature superconductor would be an amazing discovery, we should meet the new claims with some skepticism. Bold claims The South Korean researchers say LK-99 can be made in a baking process that combines the minerals lanarkite (Pb₂SO₅) and copper phosphide (Cu₃P). They say the resulting material shows two key signs of superconductivity at normal air pressure and at temperatures up to 127 ℃: zero resistance and magnetic levitation. They propose a plausible theory of how LK-99 might display room-temperature superconductivity, but have not provided definite experimental evidence. The data presented in the papers appear inconclusive. One of the signatures of a superconductor is the Meissner effect, which causes it to levitate when placed above a magnet. In a video demonstration, the researchers position a piece of LK-99 over a magnet. One edge of the flat disk of LK-99 rises, but the other edge appears to maintain contact with the magnet. We would expect a superconductor to display full levitation and also "quantum locking" which keeps it in a fixed position relative to the magnet. In a charitable interpretation, the behaviour we see in the video may be due to imperfections in the sample, meaning only part of the sample becomes superconductive. So it is too early to say we have been presented with compelling evidence for room-temperature superconductivity. What's next At present, all we know about LK-99 comes from the two arXiv papers, which have not been peer-reviewed. Both papers present similar measurements, though the presentation is unconventional. However, there are some differences in the content, and also in authorship, which does not inspire confidence. So what happens now? The processes of science swing into action. Experts will closely review the papers. Researchers at other laboratories will attempt to reproduce the experiments described in the papers, and see whether they end up with a room-temperature superconductor. These crucial steps are necessary to establish the validity and reliability of the LK-99 claims. If the claims are validated and confirmed, it could mark one of the most groundbreaking advancements in physics and materials engineering in the past few decades. However, until the research undergoes rigorous review and testing, we should approach the claims with caution. We will all be awaiting the outcome of the verification process with great interest.

The grassroots viral hit wound up landing four Emmy nominations, including for Comedy Series and supporting actor James Marsden.

When the genre-bending comedy “Jury Duty” launched its eight-episode run in April, Emmy nominations were the farthest thing from anyone’s mind. Of greater concern was simply having people know it was available at all, given that it was available on the little-known Amazon Freevee streaming service. “Actually, it was a blessing and a curse because it was such a crazy experimental undertaking,” admits Cody Heller, “Jury Duty’s” showrunner and executive producer. “There were moments where I was like, ‘OK, if the show blows up and fails, at least no one will probably see it because it’s on Freevee. But then once we finished it and we were all so proud of the work we’d done, we were like, ‘Oh man, I hope people watch it.'” Added fellow exec producer Nicholas Hatton: “To know that people have received the show in the spirit in which we intended has been beyond rewarding. I think it might be the most satisfying experience of my entire life.” See the exclusive video interview above. That the series succeeded beyond anyone’s wildest dreams would be the understatement of Emmy season. Within two weeks of its April 7 premiere, word about the series started to spread and within a month and exploded into a social media phenomenon. It’s now logged more than 300 million views over TikTok. “It’s really a good old fashioned word of mouth story,” Hatten believes. “What’s so heartwarming and lovely is that anyone who comes in contact with the show ends up feeling very passionate about it.” And when the Emmy nominations were announced on July 12, “Jury Duty” had achieved the impossible, landing a Best Comedy Series nomination opposite the likes of “Ted Lasso” and “Abbott Elementary” along with noms for supporting actor James Marsden and its writing and casting. Described as “The Office” meets “The Truman Show,” the series follows a regular citizen named Ronald Gladden who signs up for what he thinks is a documentary about jury service. Instead, he’s the unwitting center of a fake jury trial where everyone surrounding him is an actor – but in which he emerges as the hero. Hatton had worked with Sacha Baron Cohen as a producer on both the mockmentary sequel “Borat Subsequent Moviefilm” and the Showtime political satire “Who is America?” But he lived in mortal fear that Gladden would become wise to the ruse “every second of evert day, whether I was awake or having night terrors about it.” The hardest part for the actors and crew was “never making Ronald feel like he was the butt of the joke or punishing him in any way. But we created an entirely fake world for him for three weeks, for every single breath he took… The most terrifying thing was knowing this was a bit like a Jenga tower. One false move and the thing could come down. That was the persistent fear whilst making it.” Heller feared the jig was up the first time Gladden turned to Marsden and said, “This feels like a reality show.” That’s when she said she crawled under the desk and said to Hatton, “It’s over, it’s done for.” She recalls, “But then the more I thought about it, the more I thought, ‘Wait, I don’t think he meant it like that. He just meant a lot of wild stuff is happening here.’ Also, the fact he said this to James meant he in no way suspected what was really going on.” Indeed, Marsden’s portrayal of himself as a somewhat entitled Hollywood jerk was key. “I cannot imagine the show without him,” Hatton stresses. “When he rocked up to our dilapidated courthouse in Huntington Park, we told him, ‘Listen, we’re going to do a three-week live theater thing where you have to be in character the entire time. You’ll have to just be there and live it and suck it up,’ and James dove in headfirst.” “The guy is a bonafide movie star,” Heller adds, “and the fact he was willing just sit in court for boring days on end, down for the whole thing, was remarkable. His improv skills are so amazing. So were those of the rest of the cast.” Indeed, casting director Susie Farris more than earned her Emmy nomination, Heller and Hatton agree. Hatton calls her work in finding such a brilliant ensemble “truly astonishing. It was all the more astonishing because we didn’t give her a huge amount to work with due to the clandestine nature of the setup of the show and the fact we were really going for folks who hadn’t achieved a certain level of fame. So Susie was really working off morsels. There was a lot of faith that she had in us that we weren’t a gigantic waste of her time. The result is truly an ensemble piece.” PREDICT the 2023 Emmy winners. Make your predictions at Gold Derby now.

“I woke up in the morning with a bunch of texts announcing that I had been nominated!” recalls David Lanzenberg, the director of photography for Netflix’s hit series “Wednesday.” His episode titled “Woe What a Night” is up for Best Cinematography (One Hour) at the 2023 Emmys. “It’s a nice way to wake up.” Watch our exclusive video interview with Lanzenberg above. Lanzenberg got the call he would be working with renowned director Tim Burton on the first four episodes of the show based on Wednesday Addams. “The initial conversations were very technical at times — both of us were getting a feel for each other,” he explains. “I had never worked with Tim before. You’re walking into a world of Tim Burton. You already know that there’s a very specific stamp that he has established. It’s quite extraordinary. You have that on one hand. Then you have the tone of what was established with the look of the Addams family throughout the years, in the black and white series as well as the Barry Levinson movies.” SEE Jenna Ortega (‘Wednesday’): Emmys 2023 episode submission revealed For most fans, Wednesday’s (Jenna Ortega) dance sequence to “Goo Goo Muck” was the highlight of the episode “Woe What a Night.” That came as a surprise to Lanzenberg, who was went into filming that scene with another concern on his mind. “It was an amazing dance, and it was great, but nobody in their wildest dreams could have imagined this was going to be as viral as it became,” he admits. “Ultimately the ‘blood,’ the red paint that falls from the ceiling, was the crescendo of the whole sequence. For me, that was the one thing we really had to nail. We didn’t have many takes to do that. I was more concerned about getting that right. The quality of the color and texture. It was months of rehearsing. It was so funny to do this whole bit, and then finally everybody watches it and its the dance piece that is the one thing everybody is all over. It’s fun! It’s exciting.

“The Crown” is back in the Emmy race again with its fifth season and the final completion of its ensemble rotation cast. The last time it was eligible in 2021, the historical drama about Queen Elizabeth II swept all the main categories at the Emmys and won 11 awards overall including Best Drama Series. This year, it received six nominations as part of Netflix’s haul of 103, the most of any streaming service and second of all networks. While this is the show’s first entry in the single digits, it still maintained its Best Drama Series bid and received crucial mentions in many of its technical categories. Read on for a closer look at “The Crown’s” six nominations. In the top program race, “The Crown” is the only series from Netflix in contention, competing against four dramas from HBO: “House of the Dragon,” “The White Lotus,” “The Last of Us” and “Succession,” the latter three all receiving over 20 nominations at 23, 24 and 27 in chronological order. The rest of the field including “House of the Dragon” are in the same realm of tallies as “The Crown,” with Disney+’s “Andor” at eight (same as “HotD”) AMC’s “Better Call Saul” at seven, and Showtime’s “Yellowjackets” at three. SEE 2023 Emmys: Complete list of nominees Even though “The Crown” was snubbed for writing and directing for the first time, it still was able to get an acting nomination for Elizabeth Debicki in Best Drama Supporting Actress as Diana, Princess of Wales, following Emma Corrin’s lead nomination last season for the same role. Debicki was also recognized at the Golden Globes and Screen Actors Guild Awards, and will choose an episode from the season for consideration. For the Creative Arts, the series received a key casting nomination as well as notices for cinematography, period costumes and hairstyling, all for the season’s third episode “Mou Mou,” which centers around Mohamed Al-Fayed and his career leading up to his fateful meeting with Diana, where his son Dodi is introduced to her for the first time. This season of “The Crown” takes place between 1991-1997, when John Major was Prime Minister and includes the separation and divorce of Prince Charles and Diana, as well as her infamous and consequential Panorama interview with Martin Bashir. Along with Queen Elizabeth’s state visit to Russia and the handover of Hong Kong, the season ends with Tony Blair taking the Prime Minister role, just months before Diana’s tragic and fatal car crash. It is uncertain how much of a role Debicki will have in the show’s final season, but the many of the rest of the main cast which includes Imelda Staunton, Jonathan Pryce, Dominic West, Lesley Manville and Olivia Williams will complete the final two-season cast cycle of the series as the show ends with Season 6. Here are the 2023 Emmys nominations for “The Crown”: Best Drama Series Producers TBA Best Drama Supporting Actress Elizabeth Debicki as Princess Diana Best Drama Casting Robert Sterne, Casting by Best One Hour Cinematography (“Mou Mou”) Adriano Goldman, ASC, BSC, ABC, Director of Photography Best Series Period Costumes (“Mou Mou”) Amy Roberts, Costume Designer Sidonie Roberts, Assistant Costume Designer Christof Roche-Gordon, Costume Supervisor Best Period/Character Hairstyling (“Mou Mou”) Cate Hall, Hair Designer Emilie Yong Mills, Assistant Hair Designer PREDICT the 2023 Emmy winners through September 18 Make your predictions at Gold Derby now.

Patience is not necessarily a Hollywood virtue, but plenty of it will be necessary to get through the rest of the summer and fall.

It’s hard out here for an awards show, and the SAG-AFTRA and WGA strikes aren’t helping. Not that this should be a major consideration for those walking the picket lines this summer in the blistering summer heat, but one of the most valuable metrics by which their work quality is measured – the Primetime Emmys – got postponed late last week from September likely to January 2024. If it does turn out to be January. that will create an even more crowded-than-usual logjam around the beginning of the year, competing with the Golden Globes and Critics Choice competitions. It’s noteworthy that final-round Emmy voting will still be taking place as scheduled between August 17 and 28, but it looks like the actual ceremony is being delayed some four months or close to it. SEE2023 Emmys postponed indefinitely due to actors and writers strikes Patience is not necessarily a Hollywood virtue, but plenty of it will be necessary to get through the rest of the summer and fall. Let’s remember that the awards shows have already been mightily challenged over the past three years due to COVID, continuing to drop ratings as well as one brand’s (the Golden Globes) implosion and near-disappearance for good. But the strikes won’t go on forever. There will be settlements, hopefully ones that are equitable for the rank-and-file.. Things will return to normal, whatever we perceive that to be. But for now, it’s going to be a rough slog. Actors can’t promote their shows or films. Writers can’t write. Marketers can’t market. Promoters can’t promote. An industry steeped in creativity can’t create. It’s all absolutely essential and ultimately for the greater good in getting union members to livable wages and away from Artificial Intelligence rendering them obsolete, but it’s still jarring to see the business of show in such a state of paralysis. Let’s take a look at where things stand as we head into August, typically the homestretch runup to the Emmys: THE EMMYS Without writers or actors (and most other crafts supporting them in solidarity), there was never going to be an Emmy show happening on schedule (September 9 and 10 for the Creative Arts Emmys and Sept 18 for the 75th Annual Primetime Emmys ceremony). No one, for instance, was interested in seeing a repeat of the fiasco that went down in 1980 (which I covered for the L.A. Daily News) when the SAG strike resulted in precisely one actor of the 52 nominated performers showing up: the late Powers Boothe. He won, but it’s thought that his decision to go negatively impacted his career. It’s tough enough today to attract viewers to a show packed with performing nominees and presenters. Having stand-ins simply wasn’t going to fly with Fox and the TV academy. So now, January looms, assuming the unions settle by the fall. The last time the Emmys were postponed came in 2001 due to 9/11, which pushed it to November 4. “What would bug the Taliban more than a gay woman wearing a suit in front of a roomful of Jews?” Ellen DeGeneres quipped in her opening monologue that night. Of the terrorists, she said, “I think it’s important for us to be here, because they can’t take away our creativity, our striving for excellence, our joy. Only network executives can do that.” One thing that’s smart: keeping final-round voting anchored in August. Were that to be delayed by several months, voters might be hard-pressed to recall how they were leaning in the various categories. Far more prudent not to put that off. THE FESTIVAL CIRCUIT Several of the bigwigs are coming in August and September: The Venice Film Festival kicks off on August 30, Telluride on August 31, the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) on September 7. Venice in particular has been the launching pad for many a successful Oscar campaign in recent years. “The Power of the Dog,” “”Tar,” “The Whale,” “A Star is Born,” “La La Land” and “Nomadland” all has their world premieres there. This year’s lineup is scheduled to include Bradley Cooper’s Leonard Bernstein drama “Maestro,” Sofia Coppola’s Michael Mann’s “Ferrari,” David Fincher’s “The Killer” and Ava DuVernay’s “Origin.” But they’ll have to do it minus the glitter of stars on the red carpet, subbed instead by producers and directors, which of course ain’t the same. THE OSCARS There is obviously more lead time before the Academy Awards are seriously affected by the strikes – given that they don’t take place until March 10, 2024 – but not as long as you might think. Serious Oscar campaigning essentially takes up a good half of the year. The first possible issue would be the Governors Awards on November 14 that are set to honor Angela Bassett and Mel Brooks. Those two could be expected to show up as planned, because their Oscars would be honorary. But other actors probably wouldn’t attend, making for a muted celebration, indeed – though producers and directors could go in support of Brooks. If the SAG-AFTRA walkout goes on, say, through November or close to it, it would wreak all kinds of havoc on the Oscar promotion machine. THE SAG AWARDS, GOLDEN GLOBES AND CRITICS CHOICE AWARDS Even though SAG could grant a waiver to allow for its own awards to go forward and invite its members to attend, it’s difficult to see what the motivation for doing so would be. Yes, its people would enjoy a moment in the spotlight, but they would also be helping promote films and TV/streaming shows that they’re striking against. Then again, the next SAG Awards aren’t scheduled until February 24, 2024. The Golden Globes are slated for January 7, Critics Choice January 14. And the rescheduled Emmys? Maybe January 8 or 15? However, January is still five months away, and we have to believe that both strikes will settle well before then. If they don’t, Hollywood will have far more serious problems on its hands than those presented by awards show postponement and rescheduling. PREDICT the 2023 Emmy winners.

“These actors improv a lot,” reveals sound editor Patrick Hogan about working on “Reservation Dogs.” For our recent webchat he continues, “We try to fix the sound that was recorded on set. We have to do a lot of tricks. Because they are improving, it’s not like we have 5 or 6 takes of that exact line. But we want the intimacy of the production. They don’t want actors to redo it on a set. We spend a lot more time working on dialogue tracks than on much bigger budgets shows that I work on.” Watch the exclusive video interview above. The FX comedy is created by Sterlin Harjo and Taika Waititi. It follows the ‘Rez Dogs’ — a gang of four indigenous teenagers from a small reservation community in Oklahoma. They are trying to make sense of life after the death of a friend. Hogan explains, “It’s a show that is conceived of, written, directed and staring indigenous peoples. Even though it’s a fictional story, when it speaks truth you recognize that. There’s certain shows that have an authenticity to where they come from. ‘Reservation Dogs’ has that truth. On the flip side, it’s funny. The show will turn on a dime; you will be laughing one moment and crying the next. With the sound, the challenge is to make sure we are supporting that.” Hogan has received an Emmy nomination for his work on the second season of the show. He is recognized in the half-hour sound editing category. It marks the series first and only Emmy nomination to date. He acknowledges, “Sound is the very last step. So when any show is recognized for its sound, it is recognition of all the steps that came before that.” “Reservation Dogs” brings a refreshing nomination in a category that is usually dominated by larger scale productions. Hogan says, “The best use of sound is usually when you don’t even know the sound has had an impact. Sometimes doing the simpler thing can be more challenging. Finding one good sound to support something can be more of a challenge then creating a huge 30 track sound design. I’m really happy we were recognized for a show where it was the simpler and storytelling approach of sound.” Hogan and his team of David Beadle, Sonya Lindsay, Michael Sana, Daniel Salas, Amber Funk and Lena Krigen have been nominated for their work on the episode ‘This Is Where the Plot Thickens.’ In the episode, an accidental hallucinogens trip leads to the discovery of white-supremacists performing disturbing acts with catfish in the woods. Hogan admits, “It was the episode that showcased sound. When I reached out to the Foley team and told them the sound I needed for the initiation involving fish, they asked, ‘can we go that far?’ I didn’t ask how they made those sounds. Whatever happens on the Foley stage, stays on the Foley stage. PREDICT the 2023 Emmy winners through September 18 Make your predictions at Gold Derby now.

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — A brightly flashing “X” sign has been removed from the San Francisco headquarters of the company formerly known as Twitter just days after it was installed. The San Francisco Department of Building Inspection said Monday it received 24 complaints about the unpermitted structure over the weekend. Complaints included concerns about its structural safety and illumination. The Elon Musk-owned company, which has been rebranded as X, had removed the Twitter sign and iconic blue bird logo from the building last week. That work was temporarily paused because the company did not have the necessary permits. For a time, the “er” at the end of “Twitter” remained up due to the abrupt halt of the sign takedown. The city of San Francisco had opened a complaint and launched an investigation into the giant “X” sign, which was installed Friday on top of the downtown building as Musk continues his rebrand of the social media platform. The chaotic rebrand of Twitter’s building signage is similar to the haphazard way in which the Twitter platform is being turned into X. While the X logo has replaced Twitter on many parts of the site and app, remnants of Twitter remain. Representatives for X did not immediately respond to a message for comment Monday.

SHANGHAI, July 31, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Everest Medicines (HKEX 1952.HK, "Everest", or the "Company"), a biopharmaceutical company focused on the development, manufacturing and commercialization of innovative medicines and vaccines, announced today the completion of patient enrollment for the China open-label extension (cOLE) of the Phase 3 NefIgArd study. The cOLE study offers an additional 9 months of treatment with Nefecon® to all qualifying patients who have completed the NefIgArd study and will evaluate the efficacy and safety of extended and repeated Nefecon® treatment in patients with IgA Nephropathy (IgAN). The Phase 3 NefIgArd clinical trial is a randomized, double-blind, multicenter study which assessed the efficacy and safety of Nefecon® versus placebo on a background of optimized RAS inhibitor therapy. The study met its primary endpoint, with Nefecon® demonstrating a highly statistically significant benefit over placebo (p value < 0.0001) in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) over the two-year period of 9-months of treatment with Nefecon® or placebo and 15-months of off drug follow-up. Patients in the cOLE study will continue on RAS inhibitor therapy (ACEs and/or ARBs) and be treated for 9 months with Nefecon® at 16mg/day. At the end of the treatment period, change in eGFR and urine protein to creatinine ratio (UPCR) will be evaluated. "The results of the cOLE study will offer insight into the value of extended and repeated use of Nefecon® and provide very important guidance for doctors in clinical practice," said Rogers Yongqing Luo, Chief Executive Officer of Everest Medicines. The China National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) accepted Everest's New Drug Application (NDA) for Nefecon® for the treatment of IgAN in November 2022. The NMPA has also granted Nefecon® break-through therapy designation and NDA priority review. Nefecon® was the first non-oncology drug to receive break-through therapy designation in China. About Nefecon® Nefecon® is a patented oral, delayed release formulation of budesonide, a corticosteroid with potent glucocorticoid activity and weak mineralocorticoid activity that undergoes substantial first pass metabolism. The formulation is designed as a delayed release capsule that is enteric coated so that it remains intact until it releases budesonide to the distal ileum. Each capsule contains coated beads of budesonide that target mucosal B-cells present in the ileum where the disease originates, as per the predominant pathogenesis models. In June 2019, Everest Medicines entered into an exclusive, royalty-bearing license agreement with Calliditas, which gives Everest Medicines exclusive rights to develop and commercialize Nefecon® in Mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan and Singapore. The agreement was extended in March 2022 to include South Korea as part of Everest Medicine's territories. Nefecon® was approved in the United States under accelerated approval based on a reduction in proteinuria. Recently announced topline results from the global, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 3 clinical trial NefIgArd demonstrated a statistically significant benefit for Nefecon® over placebo in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), a measure of renal function. About Everest Medicines Everest Medicines is a biopharmaceutical company focused on developing, manufacturing and commercializing transformative pharmaceutical products and vaccines that address critical unmet medical needs for patients in Asian markets. The management team of Everest Medicines has deep expertise and an extensive track record from both leading global pharmaceutical companies and local Chinese pharmaceutical companies in high-quality discovery, clinical development, regulatory affairs, CMC, business development and operations. Everest Medicines has built a portfolio of potentially global first-in-class or best-in-class molecules, many of which are in late-stage clinical development.

Reno Air Races plan last show in Reno without one familiar element.

RENO, Nev. (KOLO) -Organizers of the National Championship Air Races are gearing up for their final show in Reno, missing a familiar element and uncertain where they will find a new home. For 59 years, 57 of them based at the Reno-Stead Airport, the air races have been major event on the local calendar, drawing visitors and local fans to an almost unique combination of air show and competitive racing. But this will be its last. Earlier this year organizers announced encroaching development and soaring costs were driving them to look elsewhere for a new home. It won’t be easy finding a substitute for Reno-Stead and its combination of infrastructure, access and accommodations, Thirty eight different candidates indicated initial interest. they included sites literally from one end of the country to another. “We had over a dozen show up for two different bidders’ conferences in June and July,” said the races’ Chief Operating Officer Tony Logoteta, “and we’re now receiving intents to bid. We have several intents to bid from different locations around the country.” Sadly none, we hear, within a couple hundred of miles of us. When the decision is made in the coming months and the races return, likely in 2025, it’s assumed they will include all the elements their fans have come to expect. But its farewell to Reno will be missing a familiar event. The Sports Biplane class has been grounded, the result of a series of decisions following a lawsuit filed by a biplane pilot disqualified last year. When all the dust had settled there wasn’t sufficient time to certify the pilots for this year’s races. “We were hoping to make this work because the biplanes were one of the classes that were in the first air races. so we wanted them to be here during the last races in Reno,” said Logoteta. The nimble little biplanes are expected to return to competition wherever and whenever the air races land, probably in 2025. No other classes were affected. The last Reno Air Races begin September 13. Copyright 2023 KOLO. All rights reserved.

Cheryl Anne Larsen of West Tisbury passed away peacefully on Wednesday, July 19, 2023. She was 67. Cheryl was born on Sept 6, 1958, in Fall River to Constance (Gendreau) Kuttner of Westport and Robert Kuttner of Portsmouth, R.I. Having spent most of her childhood in Westport, Cheryl moved to Chilmark, where she started her family of three children in Menemsha and Beetlebung Corner. In time she proudly built her beloved home along the West Tisbury State Forest, constructed of posts and beams milled on the Vineyard out of native Island trees. Later in life Cheryl pursued her dream of attaining her master’s degree in mathematics education. Despite the challenge, she attended the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth while commuting off-Island, working two jobs, and still raising her three children. A feminist at heart, she was the first woman in her family to obtain an advanced degree. She will be remembered by many students as a dedicated teacher at the Martha’s Vineyard Regional High School, and by students in junior high schools both on and off the Island. Only next to her family was Cheryl’s love of animals of every kind. She absolutely adored her dogs and cats, and often referred to her numerous adopted pets as being part of a small animal rescue effort and shelter of her own. Cheryl’s smile, laughter, sense of humor, and independent, self-driven spirit will always live in our hearts. She is survived by her children, Tanya Larsen of Martha’s Vineyard, Erik Larsen, his partner Kristin Smith and their children Sophie and Nils Larsen of Mattapoisett, and Nathan Larsen of Littleton, N.H.; brothers Michael Kuttner, and Stephen Kuttner and wife Lisa; and nieces Taylor, Lexi, and Aubree. A celebration of Cheryl’s life and legacy will be held at a future date. In lieu of flowers, please donate in Cheryl’s name to a humanitarian or animal rights nonprofit of your choice.

Claudia A. Metell, 75, of Oak Bluffs, passed away peacefully, with family by her side, at the Martha’s Vineyard Hospital on July 24, 2023. She was born on Dec. 31, 1947, at the Martha’s Vineyard Hospital to Alfred Metell and Ruth (DeBettencourt) Metell of Oak Bluffs. After graduating in 1965 from Martha’s Vineyard Regional High School, she worked at the Martha’s Vineyard Co-Op Dairy in Edgartown, followed by Cronig’s in Vineyard Haven, as a bookkeeper, and then as an account representative at Martha’s Vineyard Insurance for 30 years. Claudia had a love for travel, and visited Britain, Hong Kong, Italy, New Zealand, and Portugal. She shared her fondness for travel with her niece and three nephews by taking them each on a trip when they graduated from high school. Blessed with a beautiful soprano, Claudia enjoyed singing in Community Choir at Saint Andrew’s Church in Edgartown. She adored the friendships with her choir family. Her love of singing was part of a broader enjoyment for theater productions and musicals. Claudia will be missed by her four surviving siblings, David Metell and wife Carla of Melrose, Coleen A.

State officials are recommending certain people avoid eating fish from two Twin Cities metro water bodies due to contamination from so-called “forever chemicals.” The new recommendations apply to the Mississippi River from the Ford Dam in St. Paul to the Hastings dam, known as Pool 2, as well as Lake Rebecca near Hastings. The Minnesota Department of Health advises children under age 15, people who are or could become pregnant and those who are or plan to breastfeed to avoid eating fish from those water bodies. That's because new data show a mixture of pollutants, including PFAS, in the fish. PFAS, or per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, are a family of human-made chemicals widely used for decades that don't break down in the environment. Some have been linked to negative health effects including cancer. Grow the Future of Public Media MPR News is supported by Members. Gifts from individuals power everything you find here.

Pool 2 of the Mississippi River is home to an abundant fish population, including walleye, sauger, catfish and smallmouth bass, according to the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources. Lake Rebecca and Pool 2 already had fish consumption advisories for certain species due to contamination from mercury and PCBs, or polychlorinated biphenyls, which have been detected in Minnesota fish for decades. New data showing the presence of many types of PFAS prompted state officials to update the guidance, they said. The recommendations apply only to high-risk populations at this time, said Dan Huff, assistant health commissioner, in a news release. “It’s important to note that with PFAS, the risk is based on long-term exposure, not the kind of short-term exposure you might have from a few meals,” he said. Huff noted that there are health benefits from eating fish, which are a low-fat protein source that contain omega-3 fatty acids. Alternative fishing spots in the Twin Cities metro without PFAS advisories include the Lower St. Croix River south of Stillwater, Lake Nokomis and White Bear Lake. Earlier this year, a study published in the journal Environmental Research found that eating locally-caught freshwater fish could expose people to concerning levels of a “forever chemical” known as PFOS. The researchers found fish with detectable levels of PFAS in all 48 continental U.S. states. The Minnesota Department of Health previously issued fish consumption advisories for several Minnesota lakes because of levels of PFOS. They include Bde Maka Ska, Lake Elmo and Lake Harriet in the Twin Cities metro.

Two of the oldest members of the U.S. Senate showed the vulnerabilities that come with gerontocracy last week. But age limits can still be difficult to talk about or pass as law.

The median age of U.S. senators is 65 — a record high — while the median age of representatives in the House is 58. Chip Somodevilla/Getty Images Can someone be too old to hold office? That age-old question was front and center last week after awkward episodes from two of the oldest members of the U.S. Senate. On Wednesday, Sen. Mitch McConnell, 81, abruptly froze for over 30 seconds during his weekly news conference. A day later, Sen. Dianne Feinstein, 90, had to be reminded by a colleague to "Just say, 'Aye' " while casting her vote for the military budget. Both incidents were brief, but chances are they won't be the last. The median age of U.S. senators is 65 — a record high — while the median age of representatives in the House is 58. In the White House, President Biden, 80, is the oldest president elected in U.S. history, and he hopes to remain in office until 86. Grow the Future of Public Media MPR News is supported by Members. Gifts from individuals power everything you find here. Make a gift of any amount today to become a Member! People age at different rates, but concerns over life expectancy and mental fitness will likely keep resurfacing as Congress gets older and there are few legal options to address gerontocracy. Why do we have an age minimum but not an age maximum to hold office? Maximum age limits are considered unconstitutional. Part of the reason that's true dates back to 1995. At the time, Arkansas attempted to deny ballot access to prospective U.S. representatives who had already served three terms and prospective U.S. senators who had already served two terms. That case was argued in front of the Supreme Court in U.S. Term Limits, Inc. v. Thornton. The court ruled that the Framers could have created term limits for lawmakers in Congress but chose not to, suggesting that they did not intend for term limits to be part of the Constitution. The same could be argued against maximum age limits, according to Jeremy Paul, who teaches at Northeastern University School of Law. "Whether you're talking about adding term limits or whether you're talking about a maximum age, you're still changing the qualifications that are set out in the Constitution," Paul said. Could there be age limits in the future for politicians in Washington? The military, commercial pilots and, in some states, judges all follow a mandatory age for retirement. But imposing an age limit for the president or lawmakers serving in Congress would be a much harder lift. Essentially, it would require Congress to add a new amendment to the Constitution. Doing so generally requires the support of two-thirds of both chambers of Congress, as well as three-quarters of the state legislatures. The last time Congress added an amendment was over 30 years ago. Even if there was widespread support for setting a retirement age, Paul said it would be a complicated feat to settle on what age that should be. "Whatever age you pick, there will be arbitrariness to it," he said. Why do we keep electing older adults? In elections, age does not tend to play a big, decisive role, according to Damon Roberts, a Ph.D. candidate at the University of Colorado Boulder who has researched whether voters prefer older or younger candidates. In an online survey with 1,000 respondents, Roberts found that both young and older people were equally supportive of a 23-year-old candidate, a 50-year-old candidate and a 77-year-old candidate — even if they believed stereotypes that old age is associated with forgetfulness and closed-mindedness. Instead, a candidate's political party, race, gender and where they stood on specific issues held more sway. "We have other things that are really salient in American politics that people use quite strongly to base their voting decisions off," Roberts said. The case for and against term limits For some, being a senator or representative in Congress is a full-time career. That can be a good or bad thing, according to Northeastern University's Paul. Some argue that term limits are the best way to address gerontocracy. With more turnover comes new ideas and a chance to challenge the status quo in Washington. But critics say multiple terms help elected officials gain institutional knowledge and build relationships needed to become more effective in passing legislation. Paul said that seniority also plays a major role on Capitol Hill and that longtime lawmakers in Congress tend to be more influential in their party, as well as lead important committees. "There's really no substitute for experience," Paul said. Copyright 2023 NPR. To see more, visit https://www.npr.org.

Since north Minneapolis’ only public indoor pool closed in 2007, a group formed a swimming and triathlon team to ensure young people continued to swim. Now the organization V3 Sports is on the verge of restoring year-round access to a pool, and more. V3 has long worked to close the racial gap in swimming safety. The organization is now offering programs that involve biking, swimming and running. Although the organization's main mission is teaching families to swim, the group wants to promote healthier living in a bigger way. The center, at Plymouth and Lyndale Avenues, is planned to have a family restaurant focused on healthy food, a fitness center and child care programming partnered with the Boys and Girls Club. The aquatic program manager at V3 Molly Belk, said the community's input was the driving force for the new facility. Grow the Future of Public Media MPR News is supported by Members. Gifts from individuals power everything you find here. Make a gift of any amount today to become a Member! “We’re building a facility that’s gonna bring in all the amazing things that already exist in north Minneapolis,” said Belk. They are also building two swimming pools. A 25-yard, five lane pool for instruction and a separate therapy pool to provide a space for seniors and others. The new facility is still under construction and isn't expected to open until March 2024. A state grant is helping with the costs. The organization is also raising money. The start of a second construction phase will depend on funding. If that comes through, V3 will add four multi-purpose courts and an indoor Olympic-sized pool with 1,000 spectator seats. Director of strategic communication Malik Rucker said this pool would be among the largest in the state. “It makes V3 a regional destination so now we’ll be able to have regional national and local events that drive business into our community and into our economy,” said Rucker. In the meantime, V3’s aquatics expert Ayanna Rakhu is running a summer program called Swim to Learn at Franklin Middle School’s pool. V3 partners with youth programs on the northside like Urban Strategies to teach young people how to be confident when swimming. Urban Strategies partners with V3 Sports. Urban Strategies' Youth Coordinator Shakyria Jackson takes photos of swimmers at Franklin Middle School's pool on July 19. Aaliyah Demry | MPR News “It’s good to see people literally walk from their houses over to Franklin and smell the food cooking, see us playing outside with bubbles and playing in the pools and sprinklers and then coming in and seeing there’s a pool here. So a lot of people don't even know there's a pool at Franklin Middle School let alone know that we're gonna be building a pool just up the block,” Rakhu said. She said Black people in particular need to swim. “It's important to connect people to the water because water is healing,” Rahku said. “It's fun and it also has an economic benefit of one day maybe being a lifeguard or swimming instructor or marine biologist or whatever you wanna do whatever you wanna do the world is really open to you, because most of the world is water.”

Angus Cloud, the actor who starred as the drug dealer Fezco “Fez” O'Neill on the HBO series “Euphoria,” has died. He was 25. Cloud's publicist, Cait Bailey, said Cloud died Monday at his family home in Oakland, Calif. No cause of death was given. In a statement, Cloud's family said goodbye to “an artist, a friend, a brother and a son. “Last week he buried his father and intensely struggled with this loss,” the family said. “The only comfort we have is knowing Angus is now reunited with his dad, who was his best friend. Angus was open about his battle with mental health and we hope that his passing can be a reminder to others that they are not alone and should not fight this on their own in silence.” Grow the Future of Public Media MPR News is supported by Members. Gifts from individuals power everything you find here. Make a gift of any amount today to become a Member! “We hope the world remembers him for his humor, laughter and love for everyone,” his family added. Cloud hadn’t acted before he was cast in “Euphoria.” He was walking down the street in New York when casting scout Eléonore Hendricks noticed him. Cloud was resistant at first, suspecting a scam. Then casting director Jennifer Venditti met with him and series creator Sam Levinson eventually made him a co-star in the series alongside Zendaya for its first two seasons. To some, Cloud seemed so natural as Fez that they suspected he was identical to the character — a notion that Cloud pushed back against. “It does bother me when people are like, ‘It must be so easy! You get to go in and be yourself.’ I’m like, ‘Why don’t you go and do that?’ It’s not that simple," Cloud told Variety. "I brought a lot to the character. You can believe what you want. It ain’t got nothing to do with me.” The part made Cloud the breakout star of one the buzziest shows in television. He had a supporting role in his first film, “The Line,” a college drama starring Alex Wolff and John Malkovich that premiered earlier this year at the Tribeca Festival. Cloud was recently cast to co-star in “Scream 6.” He's also made cameos in music videos for Juice WRLD, Becky G and Karol G. The third season of “Euphoria” hasn't yet begun filming. “We are incredibly saddened to learn of the passing of Angus Cloud,” HBO said in a statement. “He was immensely talented and a beloved part of the HBO and ‘Euphoria’ family. We extend our deepest condolences to his friends and family during this difficult time.”

Getting a righthanded hitter and bullpen help seem like two areas President of Baseball Operations Derek Falvey could address.

The trade that Twins fans have been craving, the move that could lock up another American League Central Division championship, finally became official on Monday. Well, maybe not exactly the transaction that Twins fans wanted. Still, the Guardians' decision Monday to swap their most valuable starter on this year's pitching staff, righthander Aaron Civale, to Tampa Bay for a minor league first baseman increases the chances that the Twins will be able to hold off Cleveland's challenge for the playoff berth that comes with winning an admittedly putrid division race. Now comes the question that means a lot more around Target Field: Can the Twins, before Tuesday's 5 p.m. trade deadline, improve themselves? Their need for more offense against lefthanded pitching is clear; The Twins rank dead last among major league teams in batting average, slugging percentage and on-base percentage vs. lefties. They average 4.67 runs in games started by righthanders but just 3.39 when facing a lefthanded starter. Then there's the bullpen, which has been operating without Caleb Thielbar for three months and Brock Stewart for one. The lack of depth showed in July, when Twins relievers allowed an average of two runs per game, posted a 5.19 cumulative ERA and blew six saves. The Twins acquired veteran Dylan Floro on Wednesday to buttress the pen but could use another upgrade. President of Baseball Operations Derek Falvey has a surplus of lefthanded-hitting outfielders and multiposition infielders to offer in trade, and he indicated in mid-July that he is willing to consider dealing major league players to help facilitate a deal. Twins manager Rocco Baldelli doesn't have many expectations for trade deadline day, though. Partly, that's because he insists he believes the Twins have enough talent on the roster to make a run in October. He also believes the importance of midseason trades is overblown by fans and the news media. "I know this is a thing that a lot of people spend a lot of energy thinking about and talking about and writing about, and probably people at home love hearing about it," Baldelli said. "I don't spend a lot of time thinking about the trade deadline, to be very honest. But people must like it." Maybe that's the disappointment talking. Baldelli presided over a team that added pitchers Tyler Mahle and Jorge López for a fistful of prospects at the deadline last year, believing it had cemented a division race similar to this year's. Instead, the Twins melted down in September, and neither acquisition figures to ever pitch for the Twins again. Either way, the manager fears his team, stuck in a five-game spiral and swept by the last-place Royals, might be too cognizant of the potential for roster changes. "The trade deadline is an uneasy time for players. Always. No matter where your club's at at that point, it's a time where guys are probably more on edge than they should be," he complained. "Most teams are not going to do a whole lot. Most players are not affected by the trade deadline. But many of them think they are going to be, every year. So you should do your best to not spend a lot of energy worrying about the trade deadline." Well, at least the Twins won't have to worry about Civale quite as often. He's started nine games against Minnesota and allowed more than three runs only twice. Coming off an oblique injury last month, the righthander shut out the Twins over five innings at Target Field. He owns a 2.34 ERA this year, and his 2.7 wins above replacement leads all Guardians pitchers. The move makes sense for the Guardians for the future, however. Cleveland owns one of the lowest-scoring lineups in the majors, and the prospect it received from the Rays, Class AAA first baseman Kyle Manzardo, is regarded as one of the best hitting prospects in the minor leagues. With an injury-wracked pitching staff, the Guardians appear to have calculated that even if they overtake the Twins, whom they trailed by one half-game entering Monday's game at Houston, their chances of advancing much further this year aren't particularly strong. Making a move, or declining to, on Tuesday might reveal how the Twins regard their own potential this year.

Major League Baseball's trade deadline often requires teams to determine whether they are buyers or sellers. The Twins find themselves in a unique position as the deadline arrives Tuesday: They are a first-place team that doesn't fit either declaration. The 2023 Twins are a trust fund baby. No matter how badly they screw up, they always know they have the American League Central Division to fall back on. They are a mediocre team in a wretched division. Nothing they have shown to date even mildly suggests that President of Baseball Operations Derek Falvey should treat his ballclub as a serious contender when weighing his options at the trade deadline. Falvey can and should attempt to move some big-league pieces, but he also should avoid any temptation to part with top prospects under fool's-gold thinking of trying to fix a flawed roster. The Twins haven't earned that vote of confidence. The team desperately needs a righthanded bat in the lineup and bullpen help. But if that requires Falvey reaching into his prospect pool, no thanks. That should be a hard pass. This is not the season to mortgage future assets for the present. That's because the present remains a maddening exercise in shuffling two steps forward, two steps back. Luckily for the Twins, treading water is good enough to win the Central. Treading water isn't a successful postseason script. Ordinarily, a team clinging to first place in its division should be aggressive in the trade market to plug holes or strengthen the overall product. I typically campaign for front offices to go for it in those situations, to live in the moment and not obsess over prospects. That urge isn't there this time. Especially after watching the Twins get swept by the hapless Kansas City Royals, owners of the second-worst record in the league. The Twins have a 30-39 record against teams that are .500 or better and sit closer to the bottom (18th) than the top in overall winning percentage in league standings. Their offense continues to lead MLB in strikeouts, on pace to establish a record for whiffs. The bullpen is leaking oil, ranked 14th in the league in earned run average. No team in baseball hits lefthanded pitching worse than the Twins do, and their top three position players in wins above replacement are Edouard Julien, Willi Castro and Ryan Jeffers. How does anyone have confidence in that résumé? "When you look [at the] big picture, I think we have a very good team," manager Rocco Baldelli told reporters after Sunday's loss in Kansas City. "I'm not sitting here begging for anything at all." Good. Besides, Twins fans — and perhaps Falvey, too — still have nightmares over the 2022 trade deadline fiasco involving Tyler Mahle and Jorge López and how those two trades have played out in terms of cost and return. The prospects lost in those failed transactions serve as a cautionary tale. That doesn't mean Falvey should turn off his phone and do nothing. If he can trade a veteran — say, Max Kepler or Joey Gallo — to create more opportunities for younger players, make the deal. The more interesting scenario involves starters Sonny Gray and Kenta Maeda, a pair of pending free agents. Does Falvey trade a starting pitcher in a pennant race to avoid potentially losing one or both for nothing in return after the season? Tough call, because pitching depth can disappear in a hurry. And as frustrating and flawed as the Twins have proved to be, winning the division and playing in the postseason still matter, however unlikely it is that they will do anything substantial once there. Falvey would be foolish not to listen to offers, though, and decide if the return is worth the short-term loss in starting pitching. The Central is so inept that the Twins likely can still win the division without Gray or Maeda. The way the Twins have performed makes it impossible not to feel pessimistic. The season is far enough along to believe this is just who they are. Falvey cannot fix everything that's wrong in one trade deadline. This is not the occasion to make a splash that further depletes the farm system.

With Nick Mullens excused from practice, the fifth-round draft pick led the second-team offense against the first-team defense in goal-line drills.

Quarterback Jaren Hall's learning curve accelerated Monday during the Vikings' first padded practice of training camp. The fifth-round draft pick out of Brigham Young took a step up the depth chart, replacing veteran Nick Mullens as the backup behind Kirk Cousins. Mullens had an excused absence because of a family matter Monday. Hall's longest completion required him to step up, evade pressure and throw between two defenders to receiver Blake Proehl. Proehl scooped the low throw off the turf. Hall said he can throw a better ball. "It's just about finding space," Hall said Monday. "That's what I've learned in the NFL very quickly. There's not a lot of space. It's also timing. You have to be very accurate. Today was not great. A lot of missed throws by me. There's a lot I can work on." The pressure increased Monday. Energetic rushers put on shoulder pads for the first time since January. While edge rusher Danielle Hunter didn't yet fully practice, Hall dodged Marcus Davenport, Harrison Phillips and other starters when the first-team defense faced the second-team offense in goal-line drills. Cornerback Byron Murphy Jr. slapped away a Hall throw intended for receiver Thayer Thomas in the end zone. Hall felt the pressure, tucked and ran on another red-zone passing play. "Just the speed is going to be faster," Hall said. "The D-line is moving a lot more. They don't have to hold up as much. So, you got to get used to playing from an awkward base at times, find space in the pocket. It's a lot smaller than it was in college." Hall's first NFL padded practice shined a spotlight on some areas he would like to improve. He was intercepted by safety Harrison Smith during seven-on-seven passing drills. "Your feet have to play as fast as your mind," Hall said. "We got a lot of things — flipping calls, protection calls, then you got to remember what your drop is, how quick do you have to get from A to B, and so on." 'Everyone's blitzing' Linebacker Brian Asamoah flashed sideline-to-sideline speed and some playmaking chops, jarring a ball loose from a Giants tight end in a victory during limited action as a rookie in 2022. Now Asamoah, 23, is stepping into Eric Kendricks' shoes as a starting inside linebacker with veteran Jordan Hicks in the base defense. Asamoah could have other roles for new defensive coordinator Brian Flores — such as pass rusher. "Coach Flores is going to put us all in great positions to make plays," Asamoah said, "and that's what's exciting. It's not just one person making plays. It's the whole group. Everyone's blitzing, everyone has an opportunity to make a play." Rallying around Cine Flores was asked Monday about an interception made by second-year safety Lewis Cine over the weekend. Flores noted Cine's progress toward becoming a consistent defender regarding where he lines up, how he communicates and how he processes what's unfolding. Flores said he also wanted Cine, who has worked with the second-team defense while returning from last year's broken leg, to see the joy from teammates rallying around him. "That's what I showed him," Flores said. "You see the entire sideline light up. It's funny you get in a meeting, [you tell players] 'Why aren't you celebrating more?'" Flores added: "Look, it's a game. It's a hard game. We put a lot on them. There's pressures from all over the place with these guys that they face on a daily basis. So, enjoy it when you make a good play." O-line visit Former Broncos guard Dalton Risner, who has started 62 games at left guard in four NFL seasons, is visiting the Vikings this week, according to a league source. Risner remains a free agent after his Broncos contract expired after the 2022 season. Vikings offensive line coach Chris Kuper coached Risner with the Broncos from 2019-2021. Etc. • Right tackle Brian O'Neill (Achilles), receiver Jalen Nailor (leg), Mullens (personal) and tackle Sam Schlueter (undisclosed) did not practice Monday. Next to offensive and defensive line drills, O'Neill donned a helmet and guardian cap — the exterior pad over a helmet — while stepping through pass protection sets. Second-year tackle Vederian Lowe returned after exiting practice early on Saturday. • First-round draft choice Jordan Addison drew oohs and aahs from the Eagan crowd after the receiver ran crisp routes and pulled in a toe-tap touchdown catch in red-zone drills. • Rookie cornerback Mekhi Blackmon, the third-round pick, mixed with the first-team defense, replacing Joejuan Williams for a series.

PEARL, Miss. — A Mississippi man was sentenced Monday to 40 years in state prison for breaking out of a correctional facility and holding two people at gunpoint last year, just months before he was to have completed a seven-year sentence. Shunekndrick Huffman, 21, pleaded guilty to two counts of kidnapping and a circuit court judge sentenced him to 40 years in state prison, Rankin County District Attorney Bubba Bramlett said Monday. Huffman, who escaped from the Central Mississippi Correctional Facility in August 2022, had nearly completed the seven-year sentence for aggravated assault with an expected release date in December of that year. After Huffman fled the prison, he broke into a nearby home and held three people at gunpoint for hours, according to authorities. They said Huffman then stole a car from one of those held hostage before crashing it and fleeing on foot. He was later found hiding in a trash can and captured two miles (3.2 kilometers) from the prison, WLBT-TV reported. Mississippi Department of Corrections Commissioner Burl Cain told the news station that the facility would improve its siren system to prevent future escapes.

The Denver Broncos braced themselves for a second straight season without their steadiest wide receiver and locker room leader after Tim Patrick was carted off the field with a left Achilles tendon injury Monday — almost a year after tearing his right ACL at training camp.

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — The Denver Broncos braced themselves for a second straight season without their steadiest wide receiver and locker room leader after Tim Patrick was carted off the field with a left Achilles tendon injury Monday — almost a year after tearing his right ACL at training camp. ''It's a tough break for us as a team when you see something like that, a great player, a great leader,'' cornerback Patrick Surtain II said. ''We wish him the best and just go on from there.'' With an energized crowd of 3,000 looking on as the Broncos practiced in full pads for the first time, Patrick hit the ground in pain just as he came out of his cut on a short route during a seven-on-seven passing drill. He threw his helmet as teammates including Courtland Sutton and Russell Wilson rushed to his side. The injury happened right in front of head coach Sean Payton, who was watching Patrick make an adjustment from a previous route. ''It's always difficult, especially a guy like that's a leader who's coming off an entire year of rehabilitation,'' Payton said. ''It's difficult for his teammates, for all of us. So, maybe, hopefully we get some good news. But it appears it's his left Achilles." After being carted off, Patrick entered the Broncos facility on crutches, keeping weight off his left leg. Patrick is known for his strong work ethic and no-nonsense approach. He was one of the more notable finds by the Broncos in recent years. Undrafted out of Utah in 2017, Patrick bounced around the Ravens' and 49ers' practice squads before arriving in Denver later that year. He became a contributor in 2018 and '19 before posting back-to-back productive seasons that earned him a three-year, $34.5 million contract extension in November 2021. He was the team's No. 1 receiver going into last season when he tore his right ACL in a noncontact drill on Aug. 2. Two months later the Broncos lost their top running back when Javonte Williams suffered a knee injury and Denver's offense never recovered from the one-two punch, averaging a league-worst 16.9 points a game in Wilson's first year in Denver. Like Williams, Patrick was looking for a big comeback in 2023 atop the receiver rotation alongside Sutton and Jerry Jeudy. ''When I got hired here, he was one of the guys I saw every day because he was rehabbing last year's injury,'' Payton said. ''So, that's what makes it more difficult.'' The Broncos do appear to be in better position to weather the loss of Patrick this year if the injury proves to be as serious as suspected. They bolstered their receiver room, chiefly by drafting speedster Marvin Mims Jr. out of Oklahoma in the second round and signing veterans Marquez Callaway and Lil'Jordan Humphrey in free agency. ''We've just got great guys all around the receiving room, so obviously next man up situation,'' Surtain said. ''But Tim is a big loss, a big blow, because he brings such a presence out there on the field that many people can't compare to.'' Mims pulled a hamstring in June and suffered a setback before camp, but Monday marked his first practice of camp and Payton was encouraged: "He's feeling good. You're going to see him more and more this week. He's ramping up and we're encouraged.'' However, another receiver, KJ Hamler, who is on the mend from a torn chest muscle, was released Monday when the Broncos signed guard Yasir Durant. Hamler was releasd with a non-football illness designation. Earlier in the day, he posted on Instagram that he was diagnosed with the heart condition pericarditis ''after feeling some chest pains while working out on the break before camp started.'' He vowed to return to the field as soon as he could ''better and stronger than ever.'' Notes: Payton had no comment about Aaron Rodgers' spirited defense of Jets OC Nathaniel Hackett after Payton ripped him last week for his poor head coaching job in Denver last year. ''No, we're past it,'' said Payton, who did a mea culpa last week, saying he regretted criticizing Hackett, the Jets and members of the Broncos' front office in trying to spread the blame for Wilson's career-worst season in 2022 during an interview with USA Today. ___ AP NFL: https://apnews.com/hub/nfl and https://twitter.com/AP_NFL

AUCKLAND, New Zealand — The United States arrived at the Women's World Cup as the favorite to win an unprecedented third consecutive title. But after an underwhelming draw against the Netherlands, there's a real chance the Americans could be eliminated in group play for the first time in tournament history. The U.S. plays Portugal in the third and final match of Group E play, and if Portugal pulls off an upset Tuesday at Eden Park in Auckland, the Americans could be in big trouble. The United States needs to either win or draw against Portugal, one of eight teams playing in its first World Cup, to ensure the Americans continue to play in this tournament. ''I think we feel like we have to win everything all the time,'' said American star Megan Rapinoe. ''That's the expectation for ourselves. That's the expectation playing for U.S. national team. It's just kind of like, 'Why would you come into the World Cup if you don't think that you should win it, and if you don't think that you can win it?''' The United States sits atop the group after a 3-0 victory over Vietnam in the tournament opener, and a 1-1 draw with the Netherlands last Thursday in Wellington. The Dutch are tied with the U.S. on points, but the Americans have the tiebreaker on goals scored. Portugal lost to the Dutch in its opener but then beat Vietnam 2-0. So if the Portuguese beat the United States, they'll move on, and the Americans would then need Vietnam to beat the Dutch in Dunedin — while keeping their advantage on goal differential — to advance. ''One thing is for sure, that we have a job to do and that's first and foremost to take care of our game, so our main focus right now it our performance, our team, and Portugal," U.S. coach Vlatko Andonovski said. "What happens on the other side is something we can't control. We have to stay focused on the things we can control.'' Portugal could use a swarming defense to try to prevent the United States from scoring the way Vietnam — unsuccessfully — played the Americans in the opener. Portugal defender Ana Borges said her team will be prepared. ''This is the stage where we want to be. It's against these teams that we want to play because we're going to learn and grow from them,'' Borges said. ''Not saying anything about the other team, but if we weren't prepared for this challenge, we wouldn't be playing football.'' CHINA-ENGLAND England is in very good shape headed into its Group D finale against China, needing only a draw Tuesday night in Adelaide, Australia, to win the group and advance to the round of 16. Even a loss would be OK and push England through as group winners so long as Denmark doesn't beat Haiti. If Denmark won and England lost, the group winner would be decided by FIFA tiebreakers. England edged out a 1-0 victory over Haiti to open the tournament, then beat Denmark by the same score. China lost 1-0 to Denmark in the opener but rebounded with a 1-0 win over Haiti and is now trying to keep its streak intact of advancing out of group play in all eight of its World Cup appearances. It will be a tough task: China can advance to the round of 16 if the Chinese beat England. But if Denmark beats Haiti, coupled with a China win, then FIFA tiebreakers would come into a play. A loss would mean China's only chance at advancing would be if Haiti beat Denmark. England and China meet for just the fifth time, but first since a 2-1 China victory in 2015. England has scored in each of its last 15 matches at the Women's World Cup for a tally of 25 goals since 2015. A goal against China would make England the first team to score in 16 consecutive matches in the tournament. China is looking to win consecutive World Cup games for the first time since 1999. VIETNAM-NETHERLANDS The Netherlands wants to win every match in the Women's World Cup but none more so than Tuesday's game against Vietnam. At stake: avoiding Sweden in the knockout round. The Dutch, the tournament runner-up in 2019, need only a win or a draw in the Group E match played in Dunedin, New Zealand. And even a loss would be OK so long as the United States beats Portugal in a game being played simultaneously. But the Netherlands has mapped out the tournament and wants no part of Sweden anytime soon. ''The first aim is always to win and get to the last 16 and then after that if we can score goals we will, of course,'' Dutch coach Andries Jonker said. ''But looking at our colleagues from the U.S. and Portugal, we've noticed it's not all that easy. We've never shown any kind of arrogance, but if we get chances to score goals we will. We would prefer to play against the number two in this group and not Sweden.'' The Netherlands are tied with the United States for the top spot in the group after playing to a 1-1 draw against the Americans and a 1-0 win over Portugal. Vietnam has already been eliminated from its first Women's World Cup following losses to the United States and Portugal. Vietnam has lost its last five internationals by a combined score of 18-1. ''The Netherlands tries to have as many goals as possible, and I have to say we are at a low level," Vietnam coach Mai Duc Chung said. "If we compare with Asia, we're still at a low level. So if we compare with the world, we are still quite behind. It is a success for us already. In the past two matches we have tried our best. Great effort already.'' HAITI-DENMARK First-time Women's World Cup participant Haiti would like to stick around a bit longer but needs a miracle against in the Group D finale against Denmark to have any shot to advance. Haiti needs to beat Denmark in the Tuesday match played in Perth, Australia, and hope England beats China. If both those things happen, Haiti's only chance would still come down to FIFA's tiebreaker system. It's very long odds for Haiti, which has played better in this tournament than its 0-2 record shows. Haiti held both England and China to one goal each in the first two matches. Haiti is on a six-game losing streak headed into what is probably its final game of this tournament. Denmark, meanwhile, is trying to advance to the group stage for the first time since 1995. Denmark was a 1-0 winner over China to start the tournament, then lost 1-0 to England and heads into the game tied for second in the group with China with three points each. A win over Haiti pushes Denmark through to the next round so long as England doesn't lose to China. That scenario would put tiebreakers into play. The Danes, in the tournament for the first time since 2007, can also get through with a draw, but again, only if England beats China. Denmark has won five of its last seven international matches. ___ AP World Cup coverage: https://apnews.com/hub/fifa-womens-world-cup

LINCOLN, Neb. — Just two months after one of Nebraska's most contentious legislative sessions, lawmakers signaled Monday that more angry debate is likely next year over legislation to determine how schools deal with race, LGBTQ+ issues and other hot-button issues that have proved divisive in other Republican-controlled states like Florida. Sen. Dave Murman, the conservative chairman of the Nebraska Legislature's Education Committee, held a hearing that mostly discussed the use in schools of social-emotional learning, or SEL, that has become a lightning rod among conservatives who say schools use it to promote progressive ideas about race, gender and sexuality, and that a focus on students' well-being takes attention away from academics. The decades-old concept seeks to teach students how to manage their emotions, make good decisions, share and collaborate. But several witnesses invited by Murman made far-fetched claims that it's being used to teach critical race theory in public schools, is part of a conspiracy to mine private student data and is even being used a form of ''mind control.'' Murman, a farmer from Glenvil, took over as chairman of the committee last year, when Republicans in the officially nonpartisan, one-chamber Legislature ousted a Democratic former schoolteacher from the post in what was widely seen as an effort by conservatives to ''crack and pack'' key committees to get more of their bills to the floor for debate. That included education bills. A bill to allow taxpayer money to be used to fund private school scholarships did eventually pass. But others stalled, including a so-called parents rights bill by Murman to make it easier for parents to object to curriculum and remove books from school libraries. Murman's hearing Monday was an indication he will seek to revive that bill when the new session begins in January. One of those invited to speak was Nebraska Board of Education member Kirk Penner, who noted that he was testifying for himself and not speaking for the board. He leveled accusations of pornography littering the shelves of public school libraries and accused administrators of pushing critical race theory — an academic theory that centers on the idea that racism is systemic in the nation's institutions. He also advocated for passage of the parents rights bill. Another witness, retired Kearney pediatrician Sue Greenwald, testified on behalf of a conspiracy-based political action committee she founded, the Protect Nebraska Children Coalition. She wove a convoluted tale that social-emotional learning is part of an agenda funded by global organizations who pay kickbacks to school administrators with the intention of indoctrinating students into everything from Marxist ideology to questioning their sexual orientation. ''I know I'm sounding like a crazy conspiracy theorist now,'' Greenwald said. ''But children are being given an employability score that will be used against them in 20 years.'' Asked seconds later about those conspiracies, she replied, ''When the crazy people speak, you should believe them.'' Some of the most controversial testimony came from Murman himself, when he was asked by fellow Sen. Danielle Conrad if he agreed with recently approved Florida education standards that teach that slaves benefited from the skills they learned while enslaved. ''Slavery is wrong; there's no doubt about that. But we all benefit from our background," Murman replied, eliciting groans from the crowd. Aggravated by the bent of the hearing, several left-leaning lawmakers held a competing public forum just down the hall in the Capitol in which the public was invited to express its views on social-emotional learning. A couple of dozen people turned out, with several criticizing conservatives who use phrases like ''woke agenda'' and words such as ''groomers'' and ''indoctrination'' to describe the state's public education system and teachers. Charlie Yale, 17, who is entering his senior year at Omaha Central High School next month, called out conservatives' characterization of social-emotional learning as ''simply not the truth.'' ''For them, it's not about education," he said. ''It's about trying to turn Nebraska into the next Florida.''

Anyone can read, no subscription required Gift this Article Anyone can read, no subscription required LOS ANGELES — Los Angeles Clippers shooting guard Amir Coffey was arrested early Sunday on a firearms misdemeanor in Hollywood, authorities said. Coffey, 26, was a passenger in a vehicle that police pulled over for speeding shortly before 2 a.m., according to Los Angeles Police Officer Tony Im, a department spokesperson. Coffey was cited for carrying a concealed firearm in a vehicle, Im said. He was released on his own recognizance from a county jail on $10,000 bail. He is scheduled to appear in court on Aug. 24, jail records show. The driver was cited for speeding, and another passenger received a misdemeanor for possession of marijuana, Im said. Coffey has been with the Clippers for four seasons. ''We're aware of a legal situation involving Amir Coffey and are looking into it,'' the team said in a statement on Monday. It's possible that Coffey could face sanctions from the NBA. The league typically reviews all matters of personal and criminal conduct and can issue a fine or suspension when it deems appropriate. The 6-foot-7 guard/forward has been primarily a bench player and is averaging 5.5 points per game. He played in 50 games last season, including nine starts, and averaged 3.4 points per game. His best season came in 2021-22, when he played in 69 games with 30 starts and averaged 9.0 points and 2.9 rebounds per game.

Japan held the ball far less against Spain than it did in its first two Women's World Cup matches and yet kept right on scoring.

WELLINGTON, New Zealand — Japan held the ball far less against Spain than it did in its first two Women's World Cup matches and yet kept right on scoring. Japan switched tactics in its final Group C match, moving from a possession-oriented style to quick counterattacks. The result was a 4-0 trouncing of the sixth-ranked team in the world, a first-place finish in the group, and a display of versatility that makes Japan look like a serious title contender. Playing in a stadium dominated by their fans, the Japanese time and again swarmed the Spanish offense, stole the ball, and moved up the pitch as aggressively as possible. Japanese forward Hinata Miyazawa scored twice and said she ''never imagined'' such offensive power. ''Achieving the result is something that is a great pleasure for me,'' she said. ''It's everybody's goal together, not just me.'' Miyazawa's performance against Spain was the latest in a run that's elevated her to one of the tournament's best forwards. She has four goals and an assist in three games. It's a remarkable turnaround from Japan's 2019 performance at the Women's World Cup, when the entire team scored three goals in four games. Japan's aggressive play was noticeably different from Spain's approach. The Spanish took their time in possession, moved the ball around and tried to poke holes in the Japanese backline. It didn't work and Japan claimed its third shutout through three games at the tournament. The Japanese were an unyielding block on defense, which forced Spain toward the edges of the pitch. while the Japanese flooded the box to avoid giving up a goal from a cross. La Roja had just one shot on goal in the first half, which goalkeeper Ayaka Yamashita comfortably saved. ''We passed the ball many times, but horizontally, and it was not what we were looking for,'' Spanish coach Jorge Vilda said through a translator. ''What we always look for is to reach the opponent's goal. We were not able to achieve this.'' Japan's counter-attacking style was far different from its previous matches. Against Zambia and Costa Rica, Japan held the majority of possession. Against Spain, Japan only controlled possession 24% of the time. ''The first and the second game, we had more time for us to be able to work with the ball and be able to be careful on their counterattack,'' Japan manager Futoshi Ikeda said. Futoshi prepared his team to spend the majority of the game against Spain on defense and then ''take advantage of whatever opportunity'' they had. —- Joe Lister is a student in the John Curley Center for Sports Journalism at Penn State. —- AP Women's World Cup coverage: https://apnews.com/hub/fifa-womens-world-cup

The standout edge rusher, 28, is going through a two-week ramp-up period designed to have Hunter ready to cut loose for joint practices with the Titans and Cardinals in August.

Danielle Hunter was asked Monday if he wants to finish his career in Minnesota. This came roughly 24 hours and one practice after the star edge rusher ended his contract impasse with the team by agreeing to only a one-year deal that prevents the Vikings from placing the franchise tag on him next spring. "I want to be a Viking forever," Hunter said without hesitation at the end of a four-minute interview following his first practice since the end of the 2022 season. Whether Hunter is a Viking for life very much remains to be seen. But, for now and through this season, the Vikings are, well, "excited," a word coach Kevin O'Connell and new defensive coordinator Brian Flores used four times apiece in a span of less than four minutes after Monday's walkthrough. "We are a better football team with Danielle Hunter," O'Connell said, "and I'm really excited about that." When Flores had exhausted his use of the word "excited," he smiled and added, "No one's upset about it." Hunter, of course, was upset about the deal he signed in 2018 and had tweaked twice before it finally was abandoned in favor of a one-year, $20 million deal with $17 million guaranteed. Asked how he feels about the team now, Hunter said, "I love this organization. "I've always been an advocate for these guys. I'm just happy to be back. Happy to get back on the field with my teammates. I just want to play football." He also did a nifty sidestep when asked if he had ever wanted to be traded as he was skipping all the offseason training and the mandatory minicamp in June. The Vikings fielded trade offers but ultimately decided the 28-year-old's pass-rushing skills meant far too much to a 2023 squad that's young and inexperienced at cornerback. "I wasn't really focused on [a trade]," he said. "I just wanted to come back here, be with my teammates and play ball. I'm happy we got over that hump." Hunter came to camp in typical prime condition. "This is my first offseason in like three years that I wasn't rehabbing [an injury]," he said. "So I was able to focus and train on what I needed to focus on and get my body right. I think it was a plus that I was out in Arizona and did two-a-days for about four weeks. It was like 115 [degrees] out there, so it was a good offseason." O'Connell, however, is still taking it slow with Hunter, easing him back with a two-week ramp-up period focused on having Hunter ready to cut loose for joint practices with the Titans and Cardinals in August. Hunter did only individual work early in Monday's practice. "They don't want me to rush back and have something bad happen," Hunter said. "So I'm just going to follow their lead." Marcus Davenport, the team's other starting outside linebacker, said Hunter's return will help him realize his potential after signing a one-year, $13 million deal to come here from New Orleans. "Working off each other is going to boost us both," he said. "Especially me. I'll take it." Hunter still is learning Flores' 3-4 defense, but already likes what he is hearing and seeing when it comes to the more aggressive blitz packages compared to the passive 3-4 scheme under Ed Donatell a year ago. "When you get to blitz, you got guys all over the field doing a bunch of different things," Hunter said. "I feel like it's a plus for us for guys to being doing different things and moving all over." Hunter had a team-high 10½ sacks last year, but never appeared totally comfortable in a scheme that had him drop into coverage a career-high 34 times, according to Pro Football Focus. Asked for his thoughts on having Hunter drop and cover, Flores said, "I kind of like him going forward more than backwards, personally. "There are some instances where he may have to drop. If he's getting doubled and he drops, there are instances where we can use that to our advantage. But I like a lot of things he does moving forward." Moving forward is what Hunter and the Vikings finally can do now that yet another contract squabble is out of the way. "The big thing is I'm here now for my teammates, my coaches, the organization," Hunter said. "They need me to be myself this year and that's what I'm going to do."

The American Civil Liberties Union of Indiana asked the state's high court Monday to keep Indiana's near-total abortion ban on hold while it pursues a narrower preliminary injunction in a trial court to address the scope of the ban's exemption allowing women facing serious health risks to obtain abortions.

INDIANAPOLIS — The American Civil Liberties Union of Indiana asked the state's high court Monday to keep Indiana's near-total abortion ban on hold while it pursues a narrower preliminary injunction in a trial court to address the scope of the ban's exemption allowing women facing serious health risks to obtain abortions. The petition seeking a rehearing will delay the ban from taking effect as soon as Tuesday while the Indiana Supreme Court considers the matter. The ACLU of Indiana's request comes after the high court ruled on June 30 that Indiana's Republican-backed ban doesn't violate the state constitution. The ACLU of Indiana, representing Planned Parenthood and other abortion clinic operators, had challenged the constitutionality of the ban. A county judge later ruled that the ban likely violated the state constitution's privacy protections. But in its June ruling, the high court struck down the county judge's injunction that has blocked a 2022 law's restrictions banning the vast majority of abortions in the state since September. In its decision, the court said that while the state constitution's liberty clause ''protects a woman's right to an abortion that is necessary to protect her life or to protect her from a serious health risk, the provision does not protect a fundamental right to abortion in all circumstances.'' An exemption under the ban states that it is limited to circumstances in which an abortion is necessary ''to prevent death or a serious risk of substantial and irreversible physical impairment of a major bodily function." In Monday's petition for rehearing, the ACLU of Indiana wrote that the high court's ruling had ''left open the possibility that this constitutionally protected right 'may be broader than the current statutory exception.''' Gavin Rose, senior staff attorney for the ACLU of Indiana, said the group is asking the high court to pause its order striking down the trial court's preliminary injunction to give it time to file a motion with the trial court seeking ''a more limited injunction targeted to the breadth of the serious health risk exemption." The rehearing petition suggests that the court keep the previous injunction on hold for 60 to 90 days. The ACLU of Indiana filed its petition for a rehearing on behalf of abortion providers hours before Monday's deadline for it to do so. Rebecca Gibron, CEO of the Planned Parenthood division that includes Indiana, said in a statement about the rehearing request that the state's ban "will prevent pregnant Hoosiers from making decisions about their own bodies, and prevent their providers from giving them the care they need.'' Following the court's June ruling, Indiana's abortion ban was expected to take effect as soon as Tuesday — or within days afterward once the ruling is certified and entered into the court docket — if no party sought a review by Monday's deadline. Now that the ACLU of Indiana has filed a petition for review, that means the court's decision cannot be certified while the justices consider whether to grant or deny that petition, ''thus considering the case or disposing of the rehearing petition,'' said Kathryn Dolan, a court spokesperson. It's unclear how long it may take the high court to decide the matter, but after rehearing petitions are filed, the opposing party — in this case the state's attorneys — have 15 days to file a response to that request. Indiana became the first state to enact tighter abortion restrictions after the U.S. Supreme Court eliminated federal protections by overturning Roe v. Wade in June 2022. The state's ban will eliminate the licenses for all seven abortion clinics in the state and ban most abortions, even in the earliest stages of a pregnancy. It includes exceptions allowing abortions at hospitals in cases of rape or incest before 10 weeks post-fertilization. It also allows abortions up to 20 weeks to protect the life and physical health of the mother or if a fetus is diagnosed with a lethal anomaly. Current Indiana laws generally prohibit abortions after the 20th week of pregnancy and tightly restrict it after the 13th week. Indiana's abortion ban also faces a separate court challenge over claims it violates the state's 2015 religious freedom law signed by GOP then-Gov. Mike Pence. The state's intermediate Court of Appeals is scheduled to hear arguments in that case Dec. 6.

BRIDGEPORT, Conn. — A one-time millionaire real estate developer with past ties to corrupt Connecticut politicians was sentenced to more than five years in prison on Monday for fraud involving a failed hotel-condominium project in Florida and properties elsewhere. Robert Matthews requested a prison sentence of no more than 27 months, but instead got 65 months from Judge Victor Bolden during a hearing in federal court in Bridgeport, Connecticut. Prosecutors said Matthews, of Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, and formerly of the Connecticut town of Washington, scammed foreign investors out of millions of dollars from 2012 to 2018 while trying to develop the Palm House Hotel in Palm Beach. More than 60 investors contributed at least $500,000 apiece, officials said. Matthews made attractive but false assertions that celebrities and politicians — including former Presidents Donald Trump and Bill Clinton — would be involved in the project, authorities said. Matthews and his co-defendants used investors' money to buy a yacht, open restaurants and pay off loans, among other personal expenses, prosecutors said. During Monday's court hearing, Matthews apologized to those he defrauded and admitted he used investors' money to maintain his wealthy lifestyle, Hearst Connecticut Media reported. According to court documents, Matthews went broke after having overseen multimillion-dollar real estate projects, largely because of the 2008 real estate market crash. He had a 12,000-square-foot (1,115-square-meter) mansion in Palm Beach, a 150-foot (45-meter) yacht and an island vacation home in Nantucket, Massachusetts. Matthews pleaded guilty in 2019 to conspiracy to commit bank and wire fraud, making illegal monetary transactions and tax evasion. Three co-defendants in the case, including his ex-wife and brother, also have pleaded guilty and await sentencing. Prosecutors said the fraud also involved properties in Connecticut and Nantucket. Law enforcement officials previously showed interest in Matthews in connection with two corrupt Connecticut politicians, but Matthews wasn't charged in either case. In a 2004 criminal case, a defendant who pleaded guilty said he was the front man for Matthews when Matthews bought a Washington, D.C., condo from former Gov. John Rowland for more than twice the going rate. Rowland resigned in 2004 amid a corruption scandal that sent him to prison. In the early 1990s, authorities questioned Matthews about a $25,000 payment to Waterbury Mayor Joseph Santopietro, who also was convicted of corruption and served prison time. In 2000, Matthews and an antiques dealer obtained an original copy of the Bill of Rights that was stolen from North Carolina's Capitol at the close of the Civil War, possibly by a Union soldier. The document was returned to North Carolina after the FBI seized it during a sting and Matthews lost a lawsuit in a bid to keep it.

A federal appeals court is allowing Kentucky to enforce a recently enacted ban on gender-affirming care for young transgender people while the issue is being litigated.

A federal appeals court is allowing Kentucky to enforce a recently enacted ban on gender-affirming care for young transgender people while the issue is being litigated. The 2-1 decision Monday from the Sixth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Cincinnati is not unexpected. The same three-judge panel ruled the same way earlier this month on a similar case in Tennessee. The Kentucky law, enacted this year over the veto of Democratic Gov. Andy Beshear, prevents transgender minors from accessing puberty blockers and hormone therapy. At least 20 states have now enacted laws restricting or banning gender-affirming medical care for transgender minors. Most of those states face lawsuits. A federal judge struck down Arkansas' ban as unconstitutional. In other states, judges have issued disparate rulings on whether the laws can be enforced while the cases are being litigated. In Kentucky, U.S. District Judge David Hale had initially blocked Kentucky from enforcing the ban. But he lifted that injunction July 14, after the Sixth Circuit issued its ruling in the Tennessee case. Seven transgender children and their parents have sued to block the Kentucky law. They argue that it violates their constitutional rights and interferes with parental rights to seek established medical treatment for their children. In Monday's ruling, judges Jeffrey Sutton, an appointee of former President George W. Bush, and Amul Thapar, an appointee of former President Donald Trump, said that the issues in the Kentucky case are essentially identical to those in Tennessee. In the Tennessee case, the judges wrote that decisions on emerging policy issues like transgender care are generally better left to legislatures rather than judges. They offered a similar rationale Monday in the Kentucky case. ''The people of Kentucky enacted the ban through their legislature," the judges wrote. ''That body — not the officials who disagree with the ban — sets the Commonwealth's policies.'' The dissenting judge, Helene White, noted that Kentucky's ban does not include a grace period for patients who are already receiving care to continue treatment, as Tennessee's law did. As a result, White said the need for an injunction blocking the ban in Kentucky is even greater than it was in Tennessee. ''It seems obvious that there is a tremendous difference between a statute like Tennessee's that allows flexibility regarding treatment decisions and time to explore alternatives and one like Kentucky's that forces doctors to either discontinue treatment immediately or risk losing their license,'' wrote White, who was first nominated by former President Bill Clinton and later nominated by Bush.

The Milwaukee Brewers continued attempting to upgrade their lineup for their NL Central title quest on Monday as they acquired outfielder Mark Canha, the latest veteran to get dealt by the disappointing New York Mets. Milwaukee sent minor league pitcher Justin Jarvis to the Mets. ''He's a guy that we're excited to have," Brewers president of baseball operations Matt Arnold said. ''He's somebody that's been a productive big league player now for a long time. He still is a versatile guy as well. Between what he's done over the course of his career offensively and also with the ability to play the outfield, first base, DH, etc., he's somebody that we think can help us here down the stretch.'' This move comes four days after Milwaukee added former Pittsburgh Pirates first baseman Carlos Santana, who hit his first homer as a Brewer in a Sunday afternoon 8-6 loss to the Atlanta Braves. The Mets have been one of the most active sellers in the days leading up to Tuesday's trade deadline, a remarkable shift for a franchise that opened the season with a $355 million payroll that was the highest in major league history. After trading reliever David Robertson to the Miami Marlins on Thursday night, they sent three-time Cy Young Award winner Max Scherzer to the Texas Rangers in a deal announced Sunday. The Robertson deal brought the Mets two players from the Marlins' rookie-level Florida Complex League affiliate: infielder Marco Vargas and catcher Ronald Hernandez. The Scherzer trade enabled the Mets to land minor league infielder Luisangel Acuña, the younger brother of Atlanta Braves superstar Ronald Acuña Jr. While the Mets look to the future as they boost their farm system, the Brewers are hoping this trade helps them get back into the playoffs after their franchise-record string of four straight postseason berths ended last season. Milwaukee got swept at Atlanta over the weekend to fall a half-game behind the Cincinnati Reds in the NL Central standings heading into Monday's action. The cerebral and versatile Canha is batting .245 with a .343 on-base percentage, six homers, 29 RBIs and seven steals in 89 games this season. He's in the second season of a $26.5 million, two-year contract that includes an $11.5 million team option for 2024 with a $2 million buyout. Canha, 34, lost playing time in left field this season to Tommy Pham but also has played right field, first base, designated hitter and third base. Arnold said right field probably would be Canha's primary position in Milwaukee but also noted his ability to play all three outfield positions as well as first base. Jarvis, a 23-year-old right-hander, is 6-6 with a 4.33 ERA in a combined 17 starts for Double-A Biloxi and Triple-A Nashville this season. He has struck out 102 and walked 38 in 87 1/3 innings. ''Justin is a really talented young pitcher with real upside," Arnold said. ''We liked his arm quite a bit and everything that he had done this year. He'd done a great job. Obviously tough to give him up, but we're also very, very excited to have Canha here as well.'' Milwaukee has struggled to score runs all season but is in playoff contention largely due to its quality pitching staff and outstanding fielding. The Brewers have benefited from left fielder Christian Yelich's resurgence this season to lead an outfield that lately has been starting two rookies in center fielder Joey Wiemer and right fielder Sal Frelick, who also has the ability to play center. Frelick just got promoted July 22 and has hit .304 with a .438 on-base percentage in his first eight games. Wiemer has played exceptional defense but entered Monday's action hitting just .209 with a .289 on-base percentage, though he did have 12 homers. ___ AP MLB: https://apnews.com/hub/MLB

The number of migrants crossing Panama's dangerous, jungle-clad Darien Gap swelled to almost 250,000 in the first seven months of 2023, surpassing the number that crossed in all of 2022, officials said Friday.

PANAMA CITY — The number of migrants crossing Panama's dangerous, jungle-clad Darien Gap swelled to almost 250,000 in the first seven months of 2023, surpassing the number that crossed in all of 2022, officials said Friday. It is a record pace of migration through the gap, which connects South America to Central America. The surge comes despite an agreement announced in April between the United States, Colombia and Panama to offer alternatives to migration. The United Nations projects that if the pace keeps up, as many as 400,000 may cross the gap by the year's end. Experts say it would be hard to crack down on the smuggling gangs that operate the route. Panama's National Immigration service said 248,901 migrants had made the trip through July 31, and that 21% of those crossing were children or adolescents. Security Minister Juan Manuel Pino confirmed that was higher than last year's total. Migrants from South America — mainly Venezuelans — use the Darien Gap to travel be land through Central America and to the U.S. southwestern border. But a host of people from other places, including Africa and Asia, travel to South America to use the gap as well. In April, The United States, Panama and Colombia said in a joint statement said the countries will use ''new lawful and flexible pathways for tens of thousands of migrants and refugees as an alternative to irregular migration." The also involved investment to reduce poverty and create jobs in the Colombian and Panamanian border communities, presumably so fewer people work at smuggling migrants.

PHOENIX — A record string of daily highs over 110 degrees Fahrenheit (43.3 degrees Celsius) in Phoenix ended Monday as the dangerous heat wave that suffocated the Southwest throughout July receded slightly with cooling monsoon rains. The historic heat began blasting the region in June, stretching from Texas across New Mexico and Arizona and into California's desert. Phoenix and its suburbs sweltered more and longer than most, with several records including the 31 consecutive days of 110 degrees Fahrenheit-plus (43.4 degrees Celsius) weather. The previous record was 18 straight days, set in 1974. The streak was finally broken Monday, when the high topped out at 108 degrees Fahrenheit (42.2 Celsius) at 3:10 p.m. ''The high temperature for Phoenix today is 108 degrees,'' Jessica Leffel, meteorologist for the National Weather Service, said at 5 p.m. ''The record streak of 31 straight days of 110+ degree temperatures has ended.,'' the weather service said on social media. ''The high temperature at Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport reached 108 degrees this afternoon, which is only 2 degrees above normal.'' The reprieve was expected to be brief, with the forecast calling for highs again above 110 for several days later in the week. And National Weather Service meteorologist Matthew Hirsch said August could be even hotter than July. But residents and visitors were taking what they could get. ''It's not going to last more than a couple of days, but I'm enjoying this break,'' said Christine Bertaux, 76, who was cooling off Monday at a downtown day center for older people who are homeless. ''It has been REALLY hot here!'' said Jeffrey Sharpe, of Kenosha, Wisconsin, who was in town for a long weekend that on Monday included watching his son's two poodles frolic in a grassy dog park. ''But today it was about 85 degrees, more like Wisconsin.'' Phoenix also sweated through a record 16 consecutive days when overnight lows didn't dip below 90 degrees (32.2 degrees Celsius), making it hard for people to cool off after the sun went down. In California, Death Valley, long considered the hottest place on Earth, flirted in July with some of the hottest temperatures ever recorded, reaching 125.6 degrees Fahrenheit (52.5 Celsius) on July 16 at the aptly named Furnace Creek. The planet's hottest recorded temperature ever was 134 F (56.67 C) in July 1913 at Furnace Creek, according to the World Meteorological Organization, the body recognized as keeper of world records. And in Nevada, also on July 16, Las Vegas briefly reached 116 degrees (46.6 degrees Celsius) to tie the record for that date set in 1998. The heat in Phoenix began to ease slightly last week with the city's first major storm since the monsoon season began June 15. The Southwest heat wave was just one kind of extreme weather events that hit the U.S. in July. Fatal flash floods swept people and cars away in Pennsylvania, and days of flooding led to dangerous mudslides in the Northeast. At several points during the month, as many as a third of Americans were under some type of heat advisory, watch or warning. While not as visually dramatic as other natural disasters, experts say heat waves are deadlier — heat in parts of the South and Midwest killed more than a dozen people in June. Rudy Soliz, who manages the center where Bertaux was cooling off, said those who visit to get a meal and cool off out of the sun ''have been having a very hard time this summer.'' ''Older people have a harder time with the heat, there are a lot of diabetics, people who take medicines,'' he said. ''The heat has been pretty bad this summer. We've made at least five 911 calls from here this July for people who got heat stroke,'' said Soliz. ''They've found a couple of bodies around here this month but it's not clear yet if they died from the heat.'' Maricopa County, Arizona's most populous and home to Phoenix, reported 25 heat-related deaths this year as of July 21. Another 249 deaths are listed as under investigation, and results from toxicological tests that can take weeks or months after an autopsy could lead to many being confirmed as heat-related. Maricopa County reported 425 heat-associated deaths in all of 2022, with more than half in July. R. Glenn Williamson, a businessman who was born in Canada but has lived in Phoenix for years, said he really noticed a temperature difference Monday morning as he washed his car in his driveway. ''Now we have to get rid of the humidity!'' Williamson said. ''But honestly, I'd rather have this heat than a Montreal winter.'' ___ Costley reported from New Orleans. ___ Follow Drew Costley on Twitter: @drewcostley. ___ The Associated Press Health and Science Department receives support from the Howard Hughes Medical Institute's Science and Educational Media Group.

SAN FRANCISCO — A brightly flashing ''X'' sign has been removed from the San Francisco headquarters of the company formerly known as Twitter just days after it was installed. The San Francisco Department of Building Inspection said Monday it received 24 complaints about the unpermitted structure over the weekend. Complaints included concerns about its structural safety and illumination. The Elon Musk-owned company, which has been rebranded as X, had removed the Twitter sign and iconic blue bird logo from the building last week. That work was temporarily paused because the company did not have the necessary permits. For a time, the ''er'' at the end of ''Twitter'' remained up due to the abrupt halt of the sign takedown. The city of San Francisco had opened a complaint and launched an investigation into the giant ''X'' sign, which was installed Friday on top of the downtown building as Musk continues his rebrand of the social media platform. The chaotic rebrand of Twitter's building signage is similar to the haphazard way in which the Twitter platform is being turned into X. While the X logo has replaced Twitter on many parts of the site and app, remnants of Twitter remain. Representatives for X did not immediately respond to a message for comment Monday.

LINCOLNTON, N.C. — Six migrant workers who were intentionally hit by an SUV in a Walmart parking lot in North Carolina have been released from the hospital, police said on Monday. The workers were rammed by a vehicle outside a Walmart in Lincolnton on Sunday in what appears to have been an intentional assault, but Maj. Brian Greene, interim chief of the Lincolnton Police Department, said the driver's motives are still under investigation. The victims were treated at a local hospital for their injuries, and all were released late Sunday, Greene told The Associated Press. Police identified them as Jorge A. Lopez, Zalapa M. Hermosillo, Jose L. Calderon, Luis D. Alcantar, Rodrigo M. Gutierrez-Tapia and Santiago Baltazar. They could not be reached for comment Monday afternoon. The workers had arrived at the Walmart parking lot late Sunday morning from Knob Creek Orchard in Lawndale, where they tend to the farmland. Greene said they make the same trip once a week and use a shaded lawn at the bottom of the parking lot as their regular meeting place to board buses. The men were standing under trees Sunday when an SUV pulled up next to the bus. ''It turns right in front of the bus and appears like it's almost going to park," Greene said, describing security footage of the incident. ''And then it appears to accelerate at the last minute, jumping the curb, hitting the individuals and the trees and going through the area into the other side of the parking lot and exits the same way it came.'' Police are asking the public for help identifying the driver and the vehicle, described in the police report as an older model black sport utility vehicle with a luggage rack. The police department said it's working with the FBI, the State Bureau of Investigation and the North Carolina Department of Motor Vehicles on the ongoing investigation.

OKEECHOBEE COUNTY, Fla. — A person's body was found one day after a crash involving four vehicles, the Okeechobee County Sheriff's Office said Monday. Late Sunday afternoon, the agency responded to a head-on collision in 3200 block of westbound State Road 70 (Dew Berry Gardens area) involving four vehicles, spokesman Jack Nash said in a news release. It is near the Okeechobee County Agri-Civic Center. One occupant was pinned inside one vehicle and was taken to the hospital once fire rescue crews freed them. That person indicated another vehicle occupant ran from the scene, heading into the Dewberry Gardens neighborhood. But a search of the area was conducted and they were unable to locate anyone. Earlier Monday afternoon, while cleaning up items from the crash, tow company employees discovered a body in the dense undergrowth halfway under a fence at the crash cene. The unknown person is believed to have been another occupant inside the vehicle that had the entrapment, Nash said. The person was ejected and died as a result of that ejection. Traffic homicide investigators from the sheriff's office have taken over the case and will investigate the death as a traffic homicide, Nash said.

A 17-year-old American cyclist was killed Saturday when a car hit him as he was training. Magnus White, who was deemed a "rising star" in the sport, was cycling on the shoulder of a highway in his hometown of Boulder, Colorado, Sunday when he was struck by a car, USA Cycling said. The national team athlete had been in final training preparations for his first Junior Men's Mountain Bike Cross-Country World Championships, which is set for Aug. 10 in Glasgow, Scotland. White was an avid cyclist from an early age and had a knack for off-road cycling. He specialized in cyclocross, which is a cross between road cycling, mountain biking and steeplechase, and won the junior national championship in the sport in 2021. He went on to complete a season with the USA Cycling National Team and competed in two cyclocross world championships: one in 2022 in Fayeteville, Arkansas, and another in January in Hoogerheide, Netherlands. "We offer our heartfelt condolences to the White family, his teammates, friends, and the Boulder community during this incredibly difficult time. We ride for Magnus," USA Cycling said in a statement. White is survived by his parents and a brother. Friends of the family have organized a GoFundMe in his memory.

Google announced that Android phone users should expect to get unknown tracker alerts like iPhone users get when there is a tracker they don't know about near them. The technology has already been a tool for iPhone users, who are alerted when a device like an Apple AirTag is tracking them. SEE MORE: How to clear cookies from your smartphone The move is a product of cooperative work done between Google and Apple and was announced at at 2023 Google conference. While the alerts will work only with AirTags at first, there are talks with other tracker companies like Tile and Chipolo to widen the field on which trackers will also be included. Google said in a press release that users will be able to tap on the notification and learn more about the tracker and view it on a map. There will also be a feature to select "play sound" to make the tracker play a noise so users can find it. Google said there will also be a manual scan feature to allow users to press a button and scan their surroundings for trackers even before they receive any notifications. New find my device features are also expected to be unveiled and available on Android by this summer, the company said. Trending stories at Scrippsnews.com

A Japanese man spent $14,000 to become a Border Collie.

Don't be fooled by the furry exterior: Some dogs aren't all what they seem. In fact, one isn't even a dog at all. It's a conundrum making the rounds online after a Japanese man wearing a hyper-realistic Border Collie outfit took a stroll outdoors and posted a YouTube video of the excursion, garnering more than 4.6 million views in the 10 days it's been online. The footage was filmed last year for an interview with a German TV station according to the video description, and the dog/man, identified only as Toco, released it to the public this month after getting permission to post it. The video under the account name "I want to be an animal" shows Toco getting pets around town while walking on four legs in the costume. In a video posted last year, Toco said he had "a vague dream of becoming an animal" ever since he was a child and that he chose to become a collie because it's his favorite breed and is larger in size, comparable to a human. This childhood dream prompted him to spend around $14,000 to have specialist costume company Zeppet create the outfit in 2022. The Japanese company is known for creating models and suits for films and commercials, but this was a custom, personal order, according to its website. Zeppet's site also lists personal comments Toco made during and after the 40-day building process. "I suppose creating a four-legged model for a two-legged human is extremely tricky, as our skeletal structure is quite different from canines," Toco said upon completion of the project. "I was therefore naturally worried about how it would turn out. After various trials and errors of the studio, however, the final result was brilliant and very satisfactory." But despite the long-lived goal and its online virality, Toco still hopes to remain anonymous behind his animal persona. In an interview with the Mirror, he said, "I rarely tell my friends because I am afraid they will think I am weird. My friends and family seemed very surprised to learn I became an animal." And comments on the recent YouTube video seem to echo his fears. While some users were curious and supportive, others were concerned, with one user saying "I've worked with animals for 15 years now and this is the creepiest animal related thing I've ever seen."

Yellow Corp., one of the largest freight companies in the U.S., said it was closing operations and filing for bankruptcy on Monday.

One of the largest trucking companies in the country shut down over the weekend, leaving tens of thousands of people without jobs at the start of the work week. The Teamsters Union said Monday that Yellow Corp. informed them the 99-year-old company was shuttering operations and filing for bankruptcy, despite receiving a $700 million pandemic loan just three years ago. Scripps News reached out to Yellow to confirm but did not hear back. No bankruptcy filings have gone live yet. Yellow employs 30,000 people nationwide including 22,000 union workers. But one worker in Nashville says he arrived at work without hearing anything about the status of his job. "They haven't told us they're out of business yet, they haven't told us what they're doing, filing bankruptcy or whatever," said Danny Smallridge. "I'm in pretty good shape myself and I know I'll be taken care of but a lot of my union brothers and sisters — they're not in the same boat as I am and that's heartbreaking. Shame on the company." Another worker went viral over the weekend after a video showed his emotional reaction to learning he'd leave Yellow with no pension despite spending 30 years on the job. In a statement, Teamsters president Sean O'Brien called the news "unfortunate but not surprising." He added Yellow "has historically proven that it could not manage itself despite billions of dollars in worker concessions and hundreds of millions in bailout funding from the federal government. This is a sad day for workers and the American freight industry,” SEE MORE: Lumber prices could surge again due to too few lumber workers Yellow is the nation's third largest carrier of small freight, earning $5 billion in revenue a year, according to its website, serving major customers like Walmart and Home Depot. But after a series of failed cost-cutting measures to stay afloat, Yellow saw customers leave in droves. According to the Associated Press, the company is now $1.5 billion in debt with $729.2 million owed to the federal government. This, despite the government handing Yellow a $700 million pandemic loan just three years ago. Mike Regan, the co-founder of TranzAct technologies, which helps companies manage their supply chains, says Yellow used most of that money to round out pension plans and extend the life of its equipment. But in June, a congressional investigation found the Treasury and Defense departments "made missteps" in giving Yellow the loan, with auditors calling the handout "reactive at best" and saying it "may not be the best course of action to protect taxpayer funds." Regan says Yellow's problems arose decades ago after the company acquired rival companies and put them under one roof. "When they bought Roadway, it was like having the Green Bay Packers and the Chicago Bears come together to form a football team. You had basically people that competed against each other, were enemies, then you brought them together and said 'we're going to play nice,'" he said. "If you don't have your culture synchronized, I don't care what your strategy is, it's not going to work because you have disparate parties." SEE MORE: Wage and salary increases in the US slowed down He added that problems worsened when Yellow tried to reduce its debt and eliminate financial redundancies by shutttering 24 of its 300 truck terminals. Regan says that considering some of the locations were as valuable as $80 million, it could've helped the company with some of its money troubles. But Teamsters, which was angered by the course of action, said the move would lead to unnecessary job cuts. Regan says Yellow's latest setback came from the threat of a union strike over health care benefits when the company missed a $50 million welfare and pension fund payment. Teamsters said they'd strike if Yellow didn't make the payment. "That basically was the death knell for Yellow because if you're a shipper, one of the things that you don't want to do is have freight trapped in a system when the carrier's not operating," said Regan. The shutdown could mean shipping delays for consumer because many shippers relied solely on Yellow's vast terminal network to move is products. "In the LTL (Less-than-truckload) industry, your capacity is driven by your terminal network, the amount of doors that you have available to clear freight," said Regan. "The reason this is a big deal for shippers is because some shippers had Yellow [as their] one carrier. Well, they may take three or four carriers now to replace that Yellow volume because of the network." Regan says more carriers sharing doors could mean greater delays, leading to price increases to make up for the gap. Trending stories at Scrippsnews.com

It was a parent's worst nightmare, and a major mistake by the Frisco Police Department in North Texas. On July 23, an Arkansas family visiting the Dallas area for a basketball tournament was pulled over by the police. Frisco police believed they had found a stolen vehicle — as a result they shut down the busy highway, pulled their guns and ordered the family out of the car. But one of their officers made an error — entering the wrong state from the license plate into their computer system. The mother in the vehicle posted about the incident online saying seeing her child in cuffs "hurt me to my core." "It’s not okay. And I thank god that we were not physically injured, but we have suffered a lot of mental and emotional trauma from this. I've cried so much today I don't know if I have any more tears to cry. Every time I see the video of my baby, I just can't believe it. I feel like this is a very bad dream," Demi Janale said on TikTok. Police in Aurora, Colorado made a similar mistake in 2021, handcuffing 4 minors and laying them on the pavement for what police believed was a stolen vehicle. While the Aurora police chief ultimately apologized for the incident, the family filed a federal civil rights lawsuit and one of the officers involved was suspended. In a statement, Frisco police apologized for the July incident and said it planned to run an "incident review." For now, no lawsuit has been filed by the family involved.
