The female kangaroo hopped over her handlers late on Thursday during a rest stop at the Oshawa Zoo and Fun Farm in Ontario, the park's supervisor and head keeper, Cameron Preyde, told CBC. Officers on patrol spotted the kangaroo at around 3 a.m. on Monday on a rural property in northern Oshawa, Staff Sergeant Chris Boileau told CBC Toronto. The kangaroo punched one of the officers in the face during the capture, Boileau said. "It's something that he and his platoon mates will be remembering for the rest of their careers," he told CBC Toronto. The kangaroo, which was en route to a zoo in Quebec, received medical treatment and will stay at the Oshawa Zoo for a few days of rest, Preyde said.

Mr. Johnson is leading Republicans who now want the Biden administration to stem the number of migrants entering by tightening U.S. borders in exchange for more funding for Ukraine. President Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine has long made clear how big a loss it would be to his war effort should American military assistance end. And I believe it will be.”In battlefield interviews, Ukrainian soldiers said the amount of American weapons and other equipment had already begun to drop. In a bunker of a frontline artillery unit more than 150 miles north of Avdiivka, in eastern Ukraine, soldiers recently looked at a screen of Russian armor arrayed across the enemy lines. They only had 20 shells per day allotted to them, which meant they could realistically hope to take out two targets.

King Charles’s response to the latest commotion surrounding the British monarch has been to continue to keep quiet and turn up at public events. Photo: cameron smith/Agence France-Presse/Getty ImagesLONDON—Allegations of racism in the British monarchy were again thrust into the public domain this week after a translation of a book claimed that King Charles and Catherine, Princess of Wales, were the mystery royals who had allegedly discussed concerns about the skin color of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry ’s son before his birth. The claim was made in a Dutch translation of “Endgame: Inside the Royal Family and the Monarchy’s Fight for Survival,” which was quickly pulled by the publishers who said the names had appeared in error. On Friday, virtually every major British newspaper and broadcaster revealed the names.

But Sinatra returned two years later, to much ballyhoo and chart success, with the album “Ol’ Blue Eyes is Back.” Bowie was paying attention. “David was a big Sinatra fan,” his former manager, Tony DeFries, recently told Mojo magazine. Bowie’s retirement was a ruse, DeFries added, to generate publicity and whip up demand for a headlining tour of big venues in the United States. It worked; in 1974, Bowie played arenas across the country, including two shows at Madison Square Garden. After Bowie retired in 1973, then unretired in 1974, he retired a second time in 1975.

☆ US dollar is heading for its worst month in a year. It’s not all bad news
▼ + stars: | 2023-11-29 | by ( Anna Cooban | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +4 min

London CNN —The US dollar is barreling toward a 3.7% loss this month against a basket of six major currencies in what would be it worst monthly performance in a year. For countries that depend on commodity imports, a weaker dollar means they have to pay less for essentials like wheat and crude oil. A number of up-and-coming economies have debts denominated in dollars, and a weaker dollar can make servicing those debts less expensive. A fall in the greenback’s value also signals better investment opportunities outside the United States, McCormick told CNN. “A weaker dollar is a rising tide that lifts all boats,” he said.

The logo of Nomura Securities is seen at the company's Head Office in Tokyo, Japan, November 28, 2016. The fixed income trading business is expected to improve as the outlook for global interest rates becomes clearer, but "we won't just wait for a market recovery," he added. A bright spot for Nomura is the domestic business, as the Japanese stock market is trading at highest levels in three decades. Nomura's Japan business revenue for the April-September first half of the current fiscal year grew 31% from the same period a year before. The Japan market recovery "is providing the greatest business chance for us with the strong Japanese franchise and global investor base," he said.

A clip showing a “lab-grown drumstick” moving unnaturally was created by an artist who frequently shares videos of food in motion, despite posts online that suggest the clip shows synthetic meat made by Bill Gates. The posts refer to Gates’ advocacy for richer countries switching to synthetic meat, as described in a 2021 interview with MIT Technology Review about his book “How to Avoid a Climate Disaster”. Gates, who has backed meat alternative companies, has received criticism for his proposal that shifting to synthetic meat could reduce carbon emissions. Cameron, a video creator and artist according to the account bios, frequently shares videos of unnaturally moving food, including those not made from live animals. The clip was created by an artist who frequently creates videos of unnaturally moving food and is unrelated to meat alternative brands backed by Bill Gates.
