But the motivation for his first 26.2 mile race is personal: to advocate for gun violence prevention. Bosley and his family have dedicated their lives to stopping gun violence and helping loved ones of those lost to it. While rates of gun violence in Chicago have decreased in recent years, it’s still an ongoing problem. Data from the Chicago Police Department revealed the city’s gun violence and homicide rates dropped by 13% in 2023 to pre-pandemic levels. With his schedule, busy with his job and gun violence prevention work, he makes time for the long runs that marathon training requires.

But witchcraft, to Green, isn’t about finding answers to life’s big questions (or death’s, for that matter). “Knowing is overrated.”The way Green practices witchcraft defies stereotypes of broomstick-wielding, cauldron-toting, pointy-hatted witches. The traits others might find strange only strengthen one’s witchcraft, Green said. As long as your intentions are clear and your mind is open, you can become a witch, Samayoa said. “Taking care of yourself is better for your witchcraft.”Both witches said that practicing witchcraft is healing, even if the process remains unfinished.

HSBC on Tuesday named veteran insider Pam Kaur as its first female finance chief and announced a consolidation of the bank into four business units. Kaur is set to assume her post on Jan. 1, according to regulatory filings with the Hong Kong bourse, taking over from interim Chief Financial Officer Jon Bingham. This is the second heavyweight leadership shakeup for HSBC in recent months, after former finance boss Georges Elhedery was named CEO of the group back in July. From January, it will operate through four divisions: Hong Kong, U.K., international wealth and premier banking, and corporate and institutional banking. The bank's new corporate and institutional banking unit will bring together its commercial banking business (outside of Hong Kong and the U.K.), global banking and markets business, and Western markets wholesale banking operations.

A new leadership structure, which includes the appointment of Pam Kaur as the lender’s first female chief financial officer, would “unleash our full potential and drive success into the future,” CEO Georges Elhedery said in a memo to staff.

HSBC (HSBC) did not say what the projected cost savings might be or indicate how many jobs would be affected, but more details could emerge when the bank reports third-quarter results on October 29. Kaur, 60, takes over as CFO having served as HSBC’s chief risk and compliance officer. She joined the bank in April 2013 as group head of internal audit.

The Many Links Between Project 2025 and Trump’s WorldFormer president Donald J. Trump has repeatedly claimed that he had nothing to do with Project 2025, the Heritage Foundation’s conservative policy initiative to reshape the federal government. But Project 2025 has numerous ties to Mr. Trump and his campaign, a New York Times analysis has found. L. ZorcJump to the full list of authors, editors and contributorsSpokespeople for Project 2025 have denied that they are advocates for any particular candidate, and Project 2025 has no official ties to the Trump campaign. To limit the appearance of connection, Mr. Trump’s transition team has been excluding prominent people linked to Project 2025 from its preparations. Project 2025 additionally calls for the dismantling of the federal Education Department, which Mr. Trump has also pledged to do.

☆ How rich Americans can save on taxes by giving stock and real estate to their parents
▼ + stars: | 2024-10-13 | by ( Hayley Cuccinello | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +6 min

Selling appreciated assets like stock and real estate can trigger high capital gains taxes. She estimates that only a quarter of clients actually go through with upstream planning after discussing it. Thanks to tax cuts made during the Trump administration, individuals can gift or bequeath $13.61 million before triggering a 40% federal estate tax. The federal estate tax doesn't kick in as long as the grandparents' estate does not exceed $27.22 million, the exemption for a married couple. It is possible to unintentionally trigger estate taxes if the assets exceed the exemption amount by the time the parents die.

Butler County is a GOP stronghold in western Pennsylvania, a mix of rural communities and suburbs just north of Pittsburgh.

Peters said she was simply trying to preserve information to make sure the election was secure, and asked the judge to sentence her to probation.

Gentle parenting — which I define as an approach that centers kids' social-emotional needs — started off with the best of intentions, I believe. I think a lot of them would be better served by another parenting approach, one that educators love: structured parenting. While it's different from so-called gentle parenting, structured parenting is still gentle, kind, and individualized. Structured parenting means moms and dads don't lose themselvesParents are more self-critical these days than they ever have been. Structured parenting lets you deliver love and empathy, not only to your children but to yourself.

Lower interest rates may impact your investment portfolio following the Fed's first rate cut. "They get spooked by something like policy changes and sell out of a diversified investment portfolio. "Generally, lower interest rates boost the economy as lending gets cheaper for consumers and businesses, " says Eckles. However, as interest rates fall, the attractiveness of these cash investments declines. The inverse relationship between bond prices and interest rates means that as rates fall, bond prices rise, providing another return component.

If it expires, the estate and gift tax exemption will fall by about half. The tightening presidential race has touched off a wave of tax planning by ultra-wealthy investors, especially given fears of a higher estate tax, according to advisors and tax attorneys. With Harris and Trump essentially tied in the polls, the odds have increased that the estate tax benefits will expire — either through gridlock or tax hikes. The biggest question facing wealthy families is how much to give, and when, in advance of any estate tax change. If they do nothing, and the estate exemption drops, they risk owing taxes on estates over $14 million if they die.

All of the passengers had Brazilian documents, airline officials said, though it’s not yet clear if any had dual citizenship. A plane is seen falling out of the sky into the city of Vinhedo, Brazil, on August 9, 2024. A man who missed the flight told Brazilian news outlet Globo that at least 10 people were waiting at the wrong gate and missed the flight before it took off. When they realized they were at the wrong gate, the passengers begged the airport employees to let them board the plane but were told they could not.

He's not doing all this out of the kindness of his heart; he's doing it because he wants the credit-card rewards. In a recent poll from Ipsos, 71% of Americans surveyed said they had some sort of rewards, points, or cash-back card, and 80% of those with such a card said they valued their rewards. But maybe we love our credit-card rewards too much, to the point that it's making us act in less-than-ideal ways toward those we hold near and dear. But credit-card rewards are, indeed, making things uncomfortable. I recently booked a fight with a friend who remarked she'd gotten some $300 in travel credit from her rewards card.
