He was still at large in July 2021, when he took part in a fight in Salt Lake City that left another man dead. He’d been living in a park in downtown Salt Lake City, and he’d decided to cook for his hungry new friends. The Salt Lake City Police Department also declined, even though its investigation into Senn’s death was complete. In recent years he appeared to split his time between Chicago and Salt Lake City. Mark Peterson/ReduxReturning to Salt Lake City by unknown methods, Banuelos resumed his frequent appearances in local police reports.

London CNN —The Magnificent 7 tech stocks have been a big part of the extraordinary US market rally. But there’s a rival group of companies powering European stocks to new heights with even better returns, by some measures. Dubbed the “Granolas,” those 11 companies accounted for 60% of the gains on Europe’s benchmark stock index over the past 12 months. They have even slightly outperformed the Magnificent 7 over a longer period, according to Goldman Sachs. Their standout performance has “raised the issue of concentration effects” in the region’s stock market, says Philip Lawlor, managing director of markets research at Wilshire Indexes.

Human rights activist Maryam al-Khawaja flashes a "V" sign after being released outside the Airport Police Station, in Muharraq, north of Manama September 18, 2014. Maryam al-Khawaja said she was told at a British Airways' counter at Heathrow Airport that she was not allowed to board her flight and should contact Bahraini immigration authorities. "Effectively we are being denied boarding by British Airways on behalf of the Bahraini government," she said in a video taken in British Airways' check-in area, and posted on X, formerly called Twitter. British Airways did not immediately respond to request for comment. Abdulhadi al-Khawaja, also a Danish citizen, is a former president of the Bahrain Centre for Human Rights and is serving a life sentence for his role in Bahrain's pro-democracy protests in 2011.

☆ US Secret Service protection would follow Donald Trump to the slammer if he ever ended up there, former agents say
▼ + stars: | 2022-11-16 | by ( Robin Bravender | Dave Levinthal | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +11 min

"If Donald Trump gets sent to prison, what's the role of the Secret Service in that case?" Federal law entitles Trump and all other ex-presidents to Secret Service protections for life — although it didn't always. "Geez, the fact that we're thinking about him going to jail kind of scares me," said the former Secret Service official. While former presidents are entitled to Secret Service protection, they can opt to decline it — just as Nixon did after leaving office. They did so under the Clinton administration, when a law was passed that would afford ex-presidents 10 years of Secret Service security, rather than lifetime protections.

☆ Bank of England says it won't take 'risky bets' to help City's competitiveness

LONDON, Sept 27 (Reuters) - The Bank of England's new objective of helping the financial sector remain globally competitive should not encourage risky bets on regulatory standards to win business, BoE executive director Victoria Saporta said on Tuesday. Register now for FREE unlimited access to Reuters.com RegisterSaporta said the best way to maintain competitiveness is by having a regulatory regime that is open, predictable, transparent and aligned with international standards. Saporta said alignment with international standards makes it easier for international firms to conduct business in the UK. "Rhetoric" about Brexit dividends, deregulation and a Big Bang 2.0 means the City won't get access to the EU financial market in the forseeable future, Collier said. If we get it right, we should be a very vibrant and deep capital market," Collier said.
