NEW YORK (AP) — David Bouley, the award-winning and frenetic chef whose idiosyncratic haute cuisine and crusty breads pleased critics and the public during a career chasing sleek deliciousness, has died. Bouley died of a heart attack Monday at his home in Kent, Connecticut, according to Lisa Queen, his literary agent. Other restaurants he worked in include Danube, Bouley Bakery, Upstairs at Bouley, Bouley at Home, Secession and Brushstroke, a collaborative effort with the Tsuji Culinary Institute in Osaka, Japan.

The restaurant Bouley — which famously had a foyer filled with apples — closed in 2017 after 30 years and several location changes, earning a three-star from the New York Times the year previously.

Jeffrey Epstein accuser Virginia Roberts Giuffre said she didn't think Donald Trump was involved. "I don't think Donald Trump participated in anything," Giuffre said in a 2016 deposition. AdvertisementVirginia Roberts Giuffre, one of the most public accusers of disgraced pedophile financier Jeffrey Epstein, said she didn't think former President Donald Trump was involved with Epstein's sexual abuse of minors. I never saw or witnessed Donald Trump participate in those acts, but was he in the house of Jeffrey Epstein. The interviewer then asked Giuffre if she'd seen Heidi Klum with Jeffrey Epstein, and Giuffre answered that she had seen them together at parties.

"Whether it's true or not, that is what I do recall telling Sharon Churcher," Giuffre said of Maxwell's story. Giuffre told Churcher, however, that Maxwell said she flew Clinton to the island without Giuffre flying with them. "I'd have been about 17 at the time," Giuffre told Churcher.

September 26 - The Arizona Diamondbacks will try to strengthen their chances in the National League wild-card race when they visit the Chicago White Sox for a three-game series beginning Tuesday night. The remaining regular-season schedule for Arizona includes the set against the White Sox and then three home games against the Houston Astros, who are fighting to make the American League playoffs.

It has been a trying season for first-year White Sox manager Pedro Grifol, but he has not lost the confidence of his players. In two career starts against the White Sox, Davies is 0-1 with a 10.57 ERA.

Minnesota can clinch its season series with the White Sox with a victory on Thursday.

REUTERS/Juan Pablo BayonaURENA, Venezuela, Jan 1 (Reuters) - Private vehicles started crossing between Colombia and Venezuela for the first time in years on Sunday, marking the total opening of the shared border, in addition to cargo and people that have been transiting. The full opening of the common border follows years of tense relations between the two countries that have eased after Colombian President Gustavo Petro, a leftist, took office in August last year. German Umana, Colombia's commerce minister, told reporters at the crossing that the move would be positive for the economies and societies of both countries. "We will never allow it again," Umana said in reference to closure of the border. Late last year, Colombian and Venezuelan authorities authorized the opening of the crossing on the Atanasio Girardot bridge, known as Tienditas, the western Venezuelan border state Tachira state.
