Despite Aurora becoming a regular talking point at his rallies, a Trump campaign spokesperson declined to specify when or if the former president would visit the city. But Aurora has some important differences: It has a much larger population and has long been diverse. There has been crime, but it’s not clear how much of it is gang-related or directly attributed to increased migration. “They’re going in with guns that are beyond even military scope and they’re taking over apartment buildings,” Trump said Wednesday in North Carolina. Resources in Denver have been stretched thin — and migrants have sought housing in neighboring Aurora, where rent is cheaper.

Harris builds momentum over TrumpWith just over six weeks until Election Day, a new national NBC News poll finds Vice President Kamala Harris with a 5-point lead over former President Donald Trump among registered voters, 49% to 44%. Still, Trump holds important advantages on the economy and inflation, as voters rank cost of living as their top concern in the election. But other key voting blocs — including Latino voters, seniors and independents — haven’t changed as much. Mark Robinson “has an obligation to defend himself” following reports last week that Robinson made lewd posts on a pornographic website over a decade ago. Billionaire donations: The nation’s wealthy opened their wallets in August, pouring millions into super PACs backing Harris and Trump.

☆ Ryanair to cut flights this winter due to Boeing delivery delays
▼ + stars: | 2023-09-28 | by ( ) www.reuters.com time to read: +2 min

Sept 28 (Reuters) - Ryanair (RYA.I) announced on Thursday cuts to its winter schedule due to delays in the delivery of Boeing (BA.N) aircraft, but Europe's largest airline by passenger numbers said its full-year traffic forecast was unaffected "as yet". Ryanair said in a statement that it had expected to receive delivery of 27 aircraft between September and December. But due to production delays at the Spirit Fuselage facility in Wichita, Kansas, combined with Boeing repair and delivery delays in Seattle, it now expects to receive only 14 aircraft during the three-month period. "At this early date, we do not expect these delivery delays will materially affect our full-year traffic target of 183.5 million,” Group Chief Executive Michael O'Leary said. Ryanair had expected delivery of 57 Boeing aircraft between September 2023 and May 2024.

However, production delays at the Spirit Fuselage facility in Wichita, Kansas, combined with Boeing’s repair and delivery delays in Seattle, meant the budget airline now expects to receive only 14 aircraft between October and December. “At this early date, we do not expect these delivery delays will materially affect our full-year traffic target of 183.5 million [passengers],” Ryanair chief executive Michael O’Leary said. Asked if it could confirm the delays and when deliveries would be up to date, a spokesperson for Boeing said that the planemaker valued its partnership with Ryanair and was committed to supporting the airline. Ryanair already trimmed its full-year passenger forecast from 185 million in July, citing potential Boeing delays, as well as the impact of air traffic control strikes. Ryanair executives had said deliveries had “significantly improved” before Boeing discovered a production flaw last month that has slowed deliveries of its best-selling 737 MAX aircraft.

Officials believe the attacks are connected to a controversial sexual education school program. Signs protesting the so-called Evras program were discovered in some of the schools, according to authorities. “In a democracy like ours, we will never allow our schools to be a target,” De Croo said.

De Croo said that sexual education has been provided in Belgium for half a century and warned that the country will not take steps backwards.

BRUSSELS (Reuters) - Belgian education minister Caroline Desir has condemned a series of arson attacks on schools in recent days in protest against a new mandatory sex education course, saying the attacks were acts of "extreme brutality". "They are attacking our teaching, our freedom of education. These are acts of extreme barbarity, these are acts of terrorism", Desir told Belgian broadcaster RTBF on Friday while visiting a targeted school near the southern city of Charleroi. The government is investigating the attacks but said it would not give details for security reasons. The anti-EVRAS movement plans a protest in Brussels on Sunday.

☆ Factbox: Europe's ongoing strike-related travel disruptions
▼ + stars: | 2023-07-10 | by ( ) www.reuters.com time to read: +4 min

The travel industry is on high alert for disruption after Europe's peak season last year was hit by cancellations, causing chaos at airports. This summer, air traffic control issues are likely to be the weak spot, according to warnings from Eurocontrol, which manages European airspace. Heathrow Airport security workers on June 23 called off 31 days of strikes planned at Britain's busiest hub. At Birmingham Airport, around 100 security officers and terminal technicians will begin continuous strike action from July 18. The strikes will severely impact the airport's security and terminal maintenance, leading to flight delays, the Unite union said.

Un ciocolatier belgian a fost desemnat cel mai bun patiser-cofetar din lume de către un juriu independent de jurnaliști, consolidând astfel reputația Belgiei în domeniul producției de ciocolată de cea mai bună calitate, transmite AGERPRESPierre Marcolini a primit acest premiu atribuit de World Pastry Stars, o organizație cu sediul în Italia, compusă din maeștri bucătari din patiseria tradițională și din țări specializate în producția de ciocolată, precum Franța, Elveția și Japonia. Pierre Marcolini a deschis cofetării în mai multe țări, inclusiv în Germania și în China, care se aseamănă cu magazinele de lux. După ce a primit acest trofeu, Marcolini a spus că îl consideră un fel de justificare pentru proiectele sale „nebuneşti, care au scopul de a renova, transforma, schimba și moderniza universul patiseriei și al industriei ciocolatiere”. Ciocolatierul belgian, în vârstă de 56 de ani, s-a născut la periferia orașului Charleroi și și-a deschis prima cofetărie la Bruxelles în urmă cu 25 de ani. El speră că ciocolata ar putea să aducă oamenilor o anumită alinare în această perioadă dificilă, marcată de pandemia de coronavirus.
