As Hurricane Ernesto approached Bermuda early on Saturday, it had weakened to a Category 1 storm but still posed a significant threat to the British island territory. Although the storm’s intensity had diminished, it continued to present hazards with its powerful winds, a perilous storm surge, and the risk of severe flooding. The hurricane was gradually advancing toward the Atlantic archipelago, with its center expected to pass near or over Bermuda during the morning. The U.S. National Hurricane Center anticipated that the most severe impacts, including the height of the storm surge and potential flash flooding, would occur later in…

Jordan Chiles has publicly addressed the contentious decision to revoke her bronze medal, expressing her deep dissatisfaction with the ruling. In a statement released Thursday, Chiles conveyed her sense of injustice over the matter, describing the situation as a profound disappointment for herself and her supporters. “I am at a loss for words,” Chiles wrote. “This decision feels fundamentally unfair and represents a significant setback not only for me but for everyone who has supported my journey. To make matters worse, the unprovoked, racially motivated attacks on social media are deeply troubling and extremely painful.” The controversy began last week…

On Wednesday, former President Donald Trump delivered a speech that was originally advertised as a detailed exposition on his economic plans. However, his address quickly diverged from the economic focus, veering into a series of tangents that included sharp criticisms of President Joe Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, and windmills. Speaking before a lively audience in Asheville, North Carolina, Trump was expected to highlight his policy positions, particularly those contrasting with Harris and Biden. His allies and advisors have urged him to emphasize his policy differences rather than engaging in personal attacks. Despite this advice, Trump’s…

NASA is set to make a crucial decision at the end of this month regarding the return of two astronauts who have been stranded at the International Space Station (ISS) for over two months. Astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams were originally scheduled to return to Earth after a brief mission, but technical difficulties with their spacecraft have extended their stay in orbit. Wilmore and Williams launched aboard Boeing’s Starliner spacecraft in early June, with the mission initially planned to last just over a week. However, unforeseen issues arose with the spacecraft en route to the ISS, leading to an…

The northeastern Indian state of Assam has introduced a mobile app aimed at reducing dangerous encounters between humans and wild elephants. This initiative is part of an effort to minimize conflicts that have been increasing due to the shrinking habitats and corridors of these majestic animals as urban development expands. Developed by Aaranyak, an Assam-based conservation group, the app—named HaatiApp—monitors the movements of wild elephant herds and alerts users when they are at risk of a collision. The app also allows users to report elephant sightings, injuries, deaths, and damages to crops and property. Additionally, it includes a form for…

Shares of Trump Media and Technology Group dropped over 5% on Monday after the company reported modest revenues and a net loss in its first full quarter as a public entity. Donald Trump made his return to X early Monday ahead of an interview with X owner Elon Musk later in the day, raising questions about whether he would continue to prioritize Truth Social, Trump Media’s social media platform.

DHAKA, Bangladesh — On Thursday, Muhammad Yunus, the Nobel Peace Prize laureate renowned for his pioneering work in microfinance, assumed leadership of Bangladesh’s caretaker government. His appointment comes in the wake of intense violence that has shaken the country, resulting in the resignation and escape of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina to neighboring India. Yunus, celebrated globally as the “banker to the poor,” is best known for founding Grameen Bank and spearheading the microcredit movement. His innovative approach to combating poverty through small loans to impoverished individuals who lack access to traditional banking services earned him the Nobel Peace Prize in…

Simone Biles, who recently added four Olympic medals in Paris to her already stellar legacy, is still mapping out her future but definitely envisions having children someday. In a conversation with Hoda Kotb on “TODAY” Tuesday, Biles discussed her plans to start a family with her husband, Jonathan Owens, as she considers her next steps. “Yes, Jonathan and I frequently talk about having kids, and he would have started a family yesterday if he could,” Biles said. “We both have goals we want to achieve before we take that step.” When Kotb asked if she sees herself as a mom…

On Monday, a U.S. federal judge ruled that Google has unlawfully maintained a monopoly in two key areas: search and text advertising. This decision stems from a landmark antitrust case filed by the government in 2020, which accused Google of sustaining its dominance in the general search market through restrictive practices and a self-reinforcing feedback loop. The court found that Google violated Section 2 of the Sherman Act, which prohibits monopolistic practices. This ruling represents the first major anti-monopoly verdict against a tech company in decades. Judge Amit Mehta of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia declared,…

If Minnesota Governor Tim Walz wasn’t on your radar before Vice President Kamala Harris chose him as her running mate, you’re not alone. A recent national NPR/PBS/Marist poll, conducted before Harris made her selection, revealed that 71% of Americans either hadn’t heard of Walz or had no opinion of him. Among those who did have an opinion, 17% viewed him favorably while 12% saw him negatively. In comparison, 53% of respondents said they were unfamiliar with Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro—the other top contender for Harris’ running mate—while 25% had a favorable view of Shapiro and 23% viewed him unfavorably.
