New York Yankees fans predictably blamed manager Aaron Boone after players committed multiple avoidable mistakes en route to losing the World Series to the Los Angeles Dodgers in five games. However, Yankees owner Hal Steinbrenner appears to be running it back with Boone for at least another year. “Boone is expected back as manager in 2025, despite how the World Series went, according to multiple sources with direct knowledge of the team’s thinking.

Such data also plays a key political role by helping states draw Congressional district boundaries and determining how many seats in the House of Representatives go… Source…
Desperate rescue efforts were underway across southern and eastern Spain on Thursday after torrential rain brought devastating floods that killed at least 95 people — a figure expected to rise. Stunning images emerged from Valencia, Spain’s third most populous city, showing dozens of cars wedged atop one another after being carried by a wave of mud and debris into the walls of the narrow city streets.“Unfortunately, there are dead people inside some vehicles,” said Transport Minister Óscar Puente.

On the streets of state capital city Boise, where Democrats outnumber Republicans, some – such as Idaho Senator and Democrat Melissa Wintrow – told CNA that Republicans’ views trouble them and are pushing Idaho further to the right. These include harder-line opinions on issues like abortion access, gay rights, and education. “What I’m afraid of is, with this extreme ideologue, people are moving here because of a perceived ideologue, a perceived political bent,” said Wintrow. “But really what’s happening is that the majority of…
Ukraine prepared to fight North Korean troops in the Russian region of Kursk on Wednesday, as the entry of a second nuclear power in Russia’s war against Ukraine threatened to escalate and broaden the conflict.
