INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Kyle Larson looked like a natural turning his first laps in an IndyCar. “Like I said in (a Cup car) you'd be really tight in (turn) one, like you're off the gas. You'd be tight in (turn) two and then you would have better balance in (turns) three and four,” Larson said. “ This has way more downforce and speed than a Cup car, but the balance of all four corners felt way more similar than a stock car. At one point, Larson accidentally hit a button on the steering wheel that he said prevented the car from moving.

Biden will join the striking United Auto Workers on the picket line — a first for any president. Trump, like Biden, will also head to Detroit and hold an event to garner support for his 2024 run. Many unions have endorsed Biden but blue-collar workers are split on who they're voting for. "He is pro-UAW, he is pro-workers, that is this president," White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said Monday. She said it was "great that we have a president who wants to support local unions and the working class."

They gave everything from their pensions on, and they saved the automobile industry,” Biden said Monday from the White House. Biden is also leaning in on his union support at a time when labor enjoys broad support from the public, with 67% of Americans approving of labor unions in an August Gallup poll. White House officials dismissed the notion that Trump forced their hand and noted that Biden was headed to Michigan at the request of UAW President Shawn Fain, who last week invited the sitting president to join the strikers. “He is pro-UAW, he is pro-workers, that is this president,” White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said Monday. Dave Ellis, who stocks parts at the distribution center, said he’s happy Biden wants to show people he’s behind the middle class.

LUTON, England, Sept 1 (Reuters) - Pacesetters West Ham United claimed a 2-1 Premier League victory at Luton Town thanks to headers by Jarrod Bowen and Kurt Zouma on Friday to spoil the hosts' much-anticipated first top-flight game at their snug Kenilworth Road stadium in 31 years. I don't score many headers," said Bowen, the first West Ham player since 1930 to score in their first three away games. "We showed the character to deal with the atmosphere," West Ham manager David Moyes told the BBC. "Good against a tough team who are going to put teams under a lot of pressure. New signing Ross Barkley launched a left-foot effort moments later that sailed just wide of the West Ham goal.

Now, a startup in Abu Dhabi has found a way to grow them in the middle of the desert. Below Farm is producing “specialty mushrooms” such as oyster, king oyster, shiitake and lion’s mane. Managing director Bronte Weir says the indoor farm, about 45 minutes’ drive from downtown Abu Dhabi, is the first in the region to grow and sell high-end mushrooms. He now orders 20 kilograms (44 pounds) of oyster mushrooms a week from the company. Neighborhood pizzeria Marmellata uses Below Farm's produce on one of its most popular dishes: the kale and mushroom pizza.

In blistering 100-degree heat one recent afternoon at Valley State Prison in California’s Central Valley, inmates crowded around small windows in a prison yard to pick up their daily doses of buprenorphine, an opioid addiction medication. At one window, Quennie Uy, a nurse, scanned inmate identification cards, then retrieved strips of the medication, slipping them through a sliding panel below the window. The daily ritual is part of a sprawling health experiment in California that aims to unwind the often lasting damage of opioid use before, during and after incarceration. The state’s efforts also reflect the beginnings of a potential transformation in the nation’s approach to treating addiction in a part of American society that is often neglected. “There’s this better understanding that if we’re going to treat the opioid overdose crisis, one of the high-target populations to treat is people in jails and prisons.”

“I’m looking at a road that’s open now, whereas for this last four and a half years there hasn’t been a path,” she said. “We, too, didn’t know a lot of the details that the prosecution knew,” said Amy Mallinger, whose grandmother was killed in the shooting. It was real, and it’s hard to do.”Many survivors said that the trial was an important part of a tragic story. “Had we not had this trial, the deeds of this criminal would have been glossed over in the annals of history. One, Miri Rabinowitz, whose husband was killed, said executing the gunman would be a “bitter irony” because her husband had been devoted to “the sanctity of life.”

Dr. Susannah Hills John AbbottTo my surprise, I was diagnosed with skin cancer on my scalp. Basal cell cancer. Still, it seemed so strange to me that my skin cancer showed up on my scalp, underneath a covering of hair. An exam should be done every year to monitor unusual skin changes, or if you are at higher risk for developing skin cancer. I learned the hard way that anyone can get skin cancer and it can show up where you least expect.

In one of the new stories, people become obsessed with climbing ladders until one fellow disappears into the sky. “Green” is about a town that gets rid of its lawns and trees, only to long for them back. From hints in his diary, it appears that he liked to lie on her stomach and make love to her navel. In another scene, a naked little woman slides down a large man’s ear, to apparently profound effect. Little things become fashionable.

Amazon is bringing its palm-scanning payment system to a Whole Foods store in Seattle, the first of many planned future locations to roll out the technology. Amazon will let shoppers pay with their palms at all Whole Foods stores by the end of the year, the company announced Thursday. Amazon One is a biometric technology that lets users enter and pay for items at stores by placing a palm over a scanning device. The company first introduced the technology in its Go cashierless stores, but later began adding it to Whole Foods supermarkets. Amazon said Thursday it's seeing "growing demand" for the technology, with it recording 3 million uses of Amazon One.

The question of Chinese spying from Cuba was renewed last week following a Wall Street Journal report. China, Washington’s top geopolitical rival, on Monday denied it was using Cuba as a spy base.

REUTERS/ Mohammed TorokmanNABI SALEH, West Bank, June 6 (Reuters) - The mother of a Palestinian toddler who died of his wounds after being shot by Israeli soldiers last week called for justice on Tuesday as she attended his funeral in the occupied West Bank. "I want justice for my son, and for every person who shot at my husband and son to be held accountable," she said. "When I went to check on my son, I told (the soldiers) that my son was killed. "Without accountability, Israel's crimes against our people/children will continue unabated," Palestinian Prime Minister Mohammad Shtayyeh wrote in a tweet on Tuesday. The U.S. Office for Palestinian Affairs urged Israel "to evaluate all use of deadly force that involves civilian casualties".

“One, two, three,” Hernandez, founder of the Pacific Islander dance group Lei Pasifika, yells out. “It makes them less homesick.”According to the US Census Bureau, Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islanders were the fastest growing ethnic population in the US from 2020 to 2021. And in big cities with a large Pacific Islander presence, like New York, Portland, Oregon, and San Diego, many US-born Pacific Islanders as well as transplants are keeping their culture alive through dance. It’s a way for Pacific Islanders, especially young people, “to find themselves” and get connected with their ethnic identity and cultures, she notes. Mann says they noticed a growing number of Pacific Islanders, including those who aren’t Native Pacific Islanders but grew up in the islands, wanting to learn more about the culture and participate in dances.
