Some childcare operators told Insider the end of pandemic-era funding could make the problem worse. To keep the doors open at her Southampton Township, New Jersey, childcare center, she needs to find new clients or new funding. Jackson is just one of many providers across the US entering a period of uncertainty after a pandemic-era infusion of federal childcare funding ran out at the end of last month. That funding expired on Saturday, along with $13.5 billion in childcare funding from other pandemic-era legislation. She added: "What we're likely to see is childcare providers doing everything they can to continue to operate.

PITTSBURGH (AP) — The Miami Marlins' improbable September push will carry into October. Puk (7-5) and seven other relievers kept the Pirates in check, rendering any scoreboard-watching pointless. Miami began the day with its magic number whittled to one following another late comeback victory on Friday night. Miami used a 17-9 September surge to vault over San Francisco, Chicago and surprising Cincinnati in the standings. It's unclear whether the Marlins will have to return to New York on Monday to finish a suspended game against the New York Mets.

☆ Canada's Sikhs are grateful - and afraid - after Trudeau's India allegations

India forcefully denied its involvement in Nijjar's murder, which took place in the parking lot of a Sikh temple in Surrey, BC. But Canadian Sikhs are unconvinced, and the minority who are active proponents of Khalistan are afraid. Trudeau's move risks derailing a strategic economic and political shift many Western countries are making towards India to counter China. Mukhbir Singh, a member of the Ottawa Sikh Society, said he backs the idea of Khalistan, but that Canadian Sikhs' views on the issue are not monolithic. "Prime Minister Trudeau has taken a stance" to make "paramount" the safety of its citizens, he said, even though the Canadian government does not support Khalistan.

☆ Elon Musk said he had to 'save Twitter from bankruptcy.' Here's what would happen if it filed for Chapter 11.

Elon Musk has floated bankruptcy as a possibility for Twitter, but had said costs are "under control." Twitter reportedly has roughly $13 billion in debt from a group of banks, with $1 billion annual interest payments. Companies can use Chapter 11 to slash debt, but it could give lenders control over its future. He tweeted earlier this month that his goal was "to save Twitter from bankruptcy," as his handling of the social media platform's finances has also come under scrutiny. In a Chapter 11 reorganization, parties like secured lenders and other creditors have leverage to demand leadership changes as a condition of approving a plan to exit bankruptcy.

Elon Musk has floated bankruptcy as a possibility for Twitter, but said this week costs are "under control." Twitter reportedly has roughly $13 billion in debt from a group of banks, with $1 billion annual interest payments. Musk has been in intense cost-cutting mode since his Twitter takeover became official on Oct. 27. That can create pressure on lenders to work with Musk to reorganize the debt, whether in court, or privately, experts said. Twitter, whose purchase was facilitated by elite backers including top venture capital firms and foreign investors, could face pressure from secured lenders to figure out a solution.
