Men’s and women’s Olympic triathlon events were scheduled to take place as planned on Wednesday, organizers said, a day after the men’s individual race was postponed because of pollution in the Seine. The women’s individual race was set for 8 a.m., and the rescheduled men’s event for 10:45 a.m., the Olympics organizers said in a statement released before dawn on Wednesday. The threat of postponements has lingered over Olympics events in the Seine, the river that traverses Paris, and the organizers have backup dates for triathlons and marathon swim events. The men’s triathlon race was postponed on Tuesday after heavy rain over the weekend raised the level of dangerous bacteria in the river.

If former President Donald Trump wins a second term in the November election, expect him to try to stay in power beyond his allotted four years, says Nobel Prize-winning economist Joseph Stiglitz. Right now, a second Trump term is a real possibility. AdvertisementInstead, Trump is more likely to declare a state of emergency, Stiglitz said, in an attempt to delay or cancel elections. The executive branch has no power to move the date of elections, according to the National Constitution Center. AdvertisementChanging an election date via Congress would need the approval of both the Senate and the House of Representatives, and the two chambers would have to come up with a new election date, per the National Constitution Center.

The schedule seemed stacked against Donald J. Trump: four criminal trials in four cities, all in the same year he is running for president. But rather than doom Mr. Trump, the chaotic calendar might just save him. Mr. Trump, who as president helped reshape the federal judiciary, has already persuaded the Supreme Court to delay his trial in Washington. The case in Manhattan, where Mr. Trump is accused of covering up a sex scandal during and after the 2016 presidential campaign, was the only one not mired in potential postponements. On Friday, Justice Juan M. Merchan, who is overseeing the case, delayed the trial at least three weeks, until mid-April.

BANGKOK (AP) — Asian shares were mostly higher in thin trading Monday with many markets closed for holidays. Japan’s Nikkei 225 index slipped after a central bank survey showed business confidence on the rise. The Bank of Japan’s “tankan” quarterly survey measured business sentiment among major manufacturers at plus 9, up from plus 5 in June. After easing earlier in the day on encouraging signals about inflation, Treasury yields got back to rising as the day progressed. Postponements of such reports could complicate things for the Fed, which has insisted it will make upcoming decisions on interest rates based on what incoming data say about the economy.

Tuesday’s announcement also highlights long-running concerns that border checks on food imports from the EU — which supplies 28% of the food consumed in Britain — could choke off supplies. Physical inspections have been pushed back to the end of April, with the final controls on EU imports — safety and security declarations — postponed to October 2024. Some UK industry groups welcomed the latest delays to border checks, which, they said, will add costs and friction to supply chains. The UK inflation rate is the highest in the G7, with consumer prices rising 6.8% in July compared with a year ago. Beyond inflation, food supply disruptions remain a lingering concern in the UK, which imports just under half of all the food it consumes.

The deadline to make IRA contributions generally coincides with Tax Day. Some residents of eight states have federal tax deadline postponements until May, July or October due to natural disasters, according to the IRS. Roth IRA contributions, on the other hand, consist of post-tax contributions. You may be able to get around these restrictions through a Roth conversion, where traditional IRA funds are moved to a Roth IRA. While funding a Roth IRA may not immediately affect your tax circumstances now, experts say it may be the better pick in the long run.

He says the best way to avoid lost baggage is to arrive early and not pack bulky items like coats. Seriously, an airline doesn't want to lose your baggage, and even though you may be more inconvenienced than the airline, it's too costly for us to deal with lost baggage. Here's my best advice for handling a lost bag and making sure you never have to worry about lost baggage again when flying. Then the airline doesn't scan it in time for TSA or the baggage handler to take the luggage to the airplane, and it gets lost. If it's not in baggage claim, the ticket counter is the second best area to go.

The country's largest online source of JFK assassination records is suing President Joe Biden and the National Archives to force the federal government to release all remaining documents related to the most mysterious murder of a U.S. president nearly 60 years ago. “This is about our history and our right to know it,” said Morley, the author of the JFK Facts blog. The National Archives and Records Administration, the agency in charge of the JFK documents, also said it’s complying with the law and the procedures Biden outlined. JFK assassination historian David Talbot, a Trump critic, said he sees an irony in the two cases. Uscinski said he’s hesitant to draw a direct line between lack of trust in the government and the refusal to release the JFK records, but he argued the feds essentially have themselves to blame.
