Two accused Moreno and Bernie Moreno Cos. of gender and age discrimination, respectively. The third, in which Moreno was not named, alleged race discrimination against a dealership run by a BMC subsidiary. A campaign spokesman said that the two employees who sued Moreno directly now support his Republican U.S. Senate campaign and that Moreno, who was born in Bogotá, Colombia, prided himself on giving equal opportunities to all his workers. Female former dealership supervisor Cara Wilson, then of Streetsboro, in Portage County, alleged Moreno repeatedly belittled her about being a mother, sometimes in front of her peers. In response to the AP's reporting, the Moreno campaign produced an open letter signed by 23 former female employees vouching that he treated them fairly and respectfully.

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — The statewide battles over abortion rights since the U.S. Supreme Court overturned a constitutional right to abortion have exposed another fault line: the commitment to democracy. "We spoke.”Gross told Jackson she wasn't ignoring voters but rather was reflecting opponents' concerns that Ohio voters were led astray. Anti-abortion lawmakers and advocates already have pushed back in a handful of states where voters sided generally with abortion rights. Republican state legislative leaders initially pledged that the fight to restrict abortion rights wasn't over after voters had spoken. Florida’s Republican attorney general is attempting to keep a proposed abortion rights amendment off the 2024 ballot.

While BE-FAST helps with finding the most common symptoms of stroke, it may not reflect the stroke experience of all people. Stroke symptoms in men vs. womenScientists have come up with several theories for why men and women experience stroke differently. If women are outliving men, they also have more time and opportunity to have a stroke, Miller added. There are treatments available to improve the survival outcomes for stroke, Kamdar said, but they are all time sensitive. Even if you’re unsure whether someone is having a stroke, Miller advised calling 911 anyway.

☆ Abandoned coal mines may be gold mines for geothermal energy

The Biden Administration recently announced nearly half a billion dollars from both the Inflation Reduction and Infrastructure laws would go toward clean energy projects at former coal mines. Abandoned coal mines generally fill with water when the mining has ceased. Geothermal energy is not new, but taking it from abandoned coal mines is not yet common, especially in the United States. Geothermal energy from coal mines can be used not only to heat homes and buildings, but also to cool them. Kruse-Daniels said that while it is a relatively inexpensive form of clean energy, the location and legacy may be liabilities.

As part of the settlement, the family of Stone Foltz and the university both said they will work to address and eliminate hazing on college campuses. Foltz’s parents have started a foundation focused on hazing education and have spoke to students at other universities about its dangers. “We can continue our fight saving lives,” said Shari Foltz, whose son died died of alcohol poisoning in March 2021. Eight former fraternity members either pleaded guilty or were found guilty on various charges, including reckless homicide, hazing and giving alcohol to a minor. “Hazing and pledge programs are a relic of the past.”After the hazing death, Bowling Green expelled Pi Kappa Alpha and said it would never again be recognized on campus.

☆ Sports-Teams may look beyond crypto after FTX collapse, say industry experts

Nov 14 (Reuters) - Sports teams and businesses may shy away from long-term deals with crypto firms to minimise their risks after troubled crypto exchange FTX filed for U.S. bankruptcy protection last week, industry experts told Reuters on Monday. "I think crypto will be at the bottom of prospect lists for quite some time. Until that industry stabilises and has better oversight and controls -- if it happens -- then maybe it might be a viable partner." "As it relates to increasing sponsorship revenue, teams/leagues are always looking for new opportunities, but what's happening with FTX is a wake-up call." Singapore-based crypto exchange Crypto.com said on Monday it had moved about $1 billion to FTX over the course of a year, but most of it was recovered and exposure at the time of FTX's collapse was less than $10 million.
