Alabama, Florida and Tennessee each have been the site of three mass killings, with a total of at least 12 victims in each state. Six more states – including Maine and North Carolina – have had two mass-killing incidents this year, while eight states have had one. Since 2006, nearly 3,000 victims have died in mass killings in the U.S., and approximately 2,000 more have been injured. The analysis accompanying the database also notes that fatal public shootings typically make up a smaller portion of mass killings overall, and that victims of mass killings most often are family members or acquaintances of the killers. Among 42 mass killings in 2022, for example, fatal public shootings – unrelated to other criminal activity – accounted for seven incidents, while mass killings involving family accounted for 17.

As a college senior in 2010, Ricky Beliveau wrote a paper about how to invest in multi-family real estate. Six months after graduating, he used his capstone project as a blueprint to actually purchase a multi-family unit himself. He quit his day job in 2015 to go all-in on real estate. Today, at 36, he runs several real-estate related businesses, including Volnay Capital and EVO Real Estate Group. Consider what real estate investor Todd Baldwin did at the beginning of his career.

Please do something," he said from the Rose Garden, where he was joined by lawmakers and families of victims of gun violence. The office's goals include ensuring a bipartisan gun safety law passed last year is fully implemented nationwide along with Biden's executive actions to stop gun violence. It will seek to find new actions the White House can take unilaterally as further congressional support for gun safety laws seems slim. Still, Biden and Democrats are banking on gun safety as a major party animator for 2024, particularly for younger voters. Overall, stricter gun laws are desired by a majority of Americans, regardless of what the current gun laws are in their state.

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Biden has asked Vice President Kamala Harris to lead the first-ever federal office of gun violence prevention, which will seek to find ways around congressional inaction to stem rising violence. Harris, a former prosecutor and state attorney general, has years of experience on the issue and was the natural fit to lead the effort, White House officials said. “Throughout her career, the vice president has worked tirelessly to protect people from gun violence,” said Kristine Lucius, a domestic policy aide to Harris. Overall, stricter gun laws are desired by a majority of Americans, regardless of what the current gun laws are in their state.

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Biden is creating the first-ever federal office of gun violence prevention, according to two people familiar with the plans. The office will coordinate efforts across the federal government and will offer help and guidance to states struggling with increasing gun violence, while taking the lead on implementation of the bipartisan gun legislation signed into law last year. “There are few people who care more about the work of gun violence prevention than President Biden,” said Sen. Chris Murphy, D-Conn., who has drafted legislation with Rep. Maxwell Frost, D-Fla., that would create such an office. “Establishing a White House office dedicated to this fight will save thousands of lives and strengthen the federal government’s implementation of the Bipartisan Safer Communities Act.”Firearms are the No. Most Democrats, 92%, want gun laws made stronger, in line with their views in a UChicago Harris/AP-NORC poll conducted in July 2022.

For Shantel Anderson, 27, the pause was a lifeline that allowed her to support her mother and help her avoid eviction. Having lost most of her possessions during the eviction, Ms. Anderson relied on donations from people in her life, including her school guidance counselor, for dorm supplies. Ms. Anderson secured financial aid and student loans to study political science at Eastern University while maintaining a work-study job and other employment, but still graduated in 2018 with $43,000 in debt. Ms. Anderson also helped her mother with groceries, medication, gas and cat food.

At the moment, it goes against the grain to bet against A.I. The big tech companies, wagering billions on the new technologies and largely undaunted by their shortcomings or risks, seem intent on forging ahead as fast as they can. While Wikipedia’s licensing policy lets anyone tap its knowledge and text — to “reuse and remix” it however they might like — it does have several conditions. Mixing Wikipedia’s corpus into a chatbot model that gives answers to queries without explaining the sourcing may thus violate Wikipedia’s terms of use, two people in the open-source software community told me. In April, Reddit announced that it would not make its corpus available for scraping by big tech companies without compensation.

UPS acknowledged the vote outcome and noted that Friday's strike authorization doesn't automatically trigger a work stoppage. While many union members at UPS cast their votes on the strike authorization before the heat safety deal was announced, some drivers said afterward that other big priorities remain. Heat safety experts praised the preliminary agreement on air conditioning but cautioned that addressing the threat of extreme temperatures would take time. Seth Harris, a law and policy professor at Northeastern University who served as President Joe Biden's top labor policy adviser, said progress on heat safety at UPS could have broader ripple effects. Already, though, the concessions have jolted UPS workers and their allies with a dose of optimism.

The decision is likely to force companies to toe a more careful line when making commercial products that mimic other brands for the sake of parody, legal experts said. The Rogers test is "not appropriate when the accused infringer has used a trademark to designate the source of its own goods - in other words, has used a trademark as a trademark," Justice Elena Kagan wrote. Other experts said the decision leaves space for the First Amendment to apply to parody products.
