London CNN —Paddington Bear, probably fiction’s best-known Peruvian, has been granted a passport by authorities in his adoptive country of Britain.

In the film, the third in the hit series, the little bear (voiced by Ben Whishaw) travels home to Peru to visit his Aunt Lucy.

The 31-year-old ended a 40-year-drought for the U.S. by placing first in the women's road race; she also took home the women's track cycling team pursuit gold. "I needed an outdoors fix," Faulkner told NBC News, recalling how she signed up for an introductory women's cycling clinic in Central Park. In her first year of competitive cycling, Faulkner earned just $7,000. Another reason Faulkner wanted to continue working in venture capital was so she'd have at least 5 years of professional experience before taking a hiatus.

New York Magazine announced Monday that it is parting ways with star political reporter Olivia Nuzzi, whose previously undisclosed personal relationship with Robert F. Kennedy Jr. led to an investigation into her work during the 2024 campaign. This investigation, conducted by the law firm Davis Wright Tremaine, “reached the same conclusion as the magazine’s initial internal review of her published work, finding no inaccuracies nor evidence of bias,” New York Magazine said in a statement on its website. Kennedy’s spokesperson, meanwhile, wrote that the former presidential candidate “only met Olivia Nuzzi once in his life for an interview she requested, which yielded a hit piece.”Nuzzi wrote a profile on Kennedy in November 2023, headlined: “The Mind-Bending Politics of RFK Jr.’s Spoiler Campaign.” Its subheading read: “He’s a conservative. And he could turn the presidential race upside down.”Kennedy dropped out of the race in late August and endorsed Donald Trump. He is the son of the late Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy and is married to “Curb Your Enthusiasm” star actress Cheryl Hines.

CNN —Suki Waterhouse can add prankster to her list of superlatives. During her call to Pattinson, Waterhouse tried tricking the “Batman” actor into thinking that she had received an offer to be the host of the Netflix reality dating show “Love is Blind.”“What an interesting turn of events,” Pattinson responded awkwardly. Earlier in the video, Waterhouse told a wild story to her father Norman Waterhouse about urgently needing foot surgery that would come at a price of $150,000 and require the cancelling of her tour. “I’m going to go into surgery in a couple of hours,” Waterhouse convincingly fibbed. When her exasperated father, who’s a real-life surgeon, offered a profanity-laced reaction as he tried to convince her to stop, Waterhouse broke character and fessed up.

Nuzzi said her relationship with Kennedy “turned personal” the following month and ended in August. “The relationship was never physical but should have been disclosed to prevent the appearance of a conflict. I deeply regret not doing so immediately and apologize to those I’ve disappointed, especially my colleagues at New York,” she said in a statement.

Russian artillery depends on a complex supply chain vulnerable to sanctions, defense experts say. Each company has its own supply chain of subcontractors, such as factories that make special steel. Current Western sanctions tend to be too broad and sporadic to cripple Russian defense production. A better approach would be a mixture of economic sanctions and diplomatic pressure focused on Russia's artillery supply chain, concluded the report. AdvertisementNonetheless, sanctions might ultimately prove to be a more effective approach than trying to destroy Russian artillery in combat.

CNN —Donald Trump is pulling one of the most iconic American companies – McDonald’s – into the political arena in the final days of his third White House bid. “I’m going to McDonald’s to work the french fry,” Trump told supporters Saturday at a rally in the Pittsburgh area. A campaign official told CNN that Harris worked at a McDonald’s in Alameda, California, during the summer of 1983 when she was still a student at Howard University in Washington. It’s unclear why Trump has latched on to Harris’ McDonald’s employment or why a visit there was warranted during one of his few remaining weekends before Election Day. “I think my father knows the McDonald’s menu much better than Kamala Harris ever did,” Trump Jr. said.

Despite Trump’s bromance with the military, senior retired generals and admirals haven’t loved him back.
