Walking pneumonia infections rose nationwide as kids returned to school this fall. Look out for a persistent cough, fever, and fatigueHistorically, walking pneumonia has been most common among school-aged children.

☆ Airbus' new plane is the answer to an aging, inefficient Boeing jet that airlines are scrambling to replace
▼ + stars: | 2024-11-01 | by ( Taylor Rains | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +5 min

Some airlines have bought Airbus' new extra-long-haul A321XLR to replace their aging Boeing 757s. That's about 800 miles further than its predecessor and at least 880 miles further than its closest competitor: the aging, out-of-production Boeing 757. Carriers like United Airlines and Icelandair are lining up for the new jet, putting in more than 550 orders so far. Continental Airlines, now United Airlines, switched its 757-300 order to the newer 737-800 in 2003, for example. Icelandair will also replace its 757 fleet with the A321XLR, abandoning the largely all-Boeing fleet it has operated for decades.

☆ Is this the deal to end Boeing’s crippling 7-week strike?
▼ + stars: | 2024-11-01 | by ( Chris Isidore | Vanessa Yurkevich | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +10 min

New York CNN —More than 30,000 Boeing workers will vote again Monday on whether or not to end a crippling seven-week strike. The deal is not significantly different from an offer rejected by nearly two-thirds of membership just over a week ago. And it happened 10 years ago at Boeing, when about two-thirds of members rejected an offer that ended the pension plan. Despite its many problems, Boeing is a major force in America economy, and it is the largest American exporter. Ending the strike is important for Boeing’s new CEO, Kelly Ortberg, who started in the job just five weeks before the strike began.

Turning Point Action is one of several outside groups that have taken over the work of canvassing on behalf of Republicans. Some churches and pastors promoted Turning Point events during worship services and in social media posts, NBC News found. Training churches to serve as unofficial Trump campaign surrogates fits into a broader campaign by Turning Point to mobilize evangelicals.

☆ Boeing strike will dent last jobs report before election

Boeing workers gather on a picket line near the entrance to a Boeing facility during an ongoing strike on October 24, 2024 in Seattle, Washington. Boeing 's more than seven-week machinist strike is set to hit Friday's U.S. jobs report — the last one that will be released before Nov. 5 presidential election and the Federal Reserve's meeting next week. Some 44,000 U.S. workers were on strike when the Labor Department conducted its survey in mid-October. About 33,000 of them are Boeing machinists, who walked off the job on Sept. 13 after overwhelmingly voting against a union-endorsed labor contract and in favor of their first strike since 2008. Boeing's machinist strike has complicated the plane maker's already difficult position as its new CEO Kelly Ortberg tries to steer the giant U.S. manufacturer and exporter out of safety, quality and financial crises.

Boeing and its machinists' union have agreed on a new negotiated offer to raise worker pay and potentially end a crippling strike that began almost seven weeks ago with a vote on the new proposal set for Monday. The union urged workers to approve the contract. Boeing said Thursday at the end of the contract, average machinist pay will average $119,309. "We encourage all of our employees to learn more about the improved offer and vote on Monday, Nov. 4," Boeing said in a statement. The Boeing strike is expected to dent Friday's U.S. jobs report.

Amazon's online advertising business brought in $14.3 billion in the third quarter, up 19% year over year, in line with analysts' estimates of $14.3 billion. The Seattle tech giant revealed the financial results of its growing advertising unit as part of its latest earnings report Thursday. Amazon's overall third-quarter sales were $158.9 billion, ahead of analysts' estimates of $157.2 billion. Amazon's online advertising business is still a fraction of the company's overall business, but its growth over the years has made it a major competitor to Alphabet and Meta , which lead the digital advertising market. Meta's third-quarter advertising revenue came in at $39.9 billion, which was up 19% compared with the year prior.

She had just recently learned about self-harm after asking a friend about her many bandages and long sleeves. In 2019 there were 363,000 emergency department visits for self-harm, according to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Self-harm can also be a form of self-punishment among those feeling guilt or shame and thus like they deserve physical pain. You should of course use common sense and not let someone have their self-harm toolkit in their bedroom, for example, Whitlock added.

Like others in Chosen Company, Webber had been drawn to Ukraine for reasons he couldn't quite explain.

One showed an assault team clearing a World War I-style bunker, using live rounds. AdvertisementCats are everywhere on the front lines in Ukraine; Webber rescued one from a building under fire. "It seemed like he had stuff he was working on," says O'Leary, the CO of Chosen Company.

Boeing's still-new CEO, Kelly Ortberg, faces urgent challenges, including a worker strike. Ortberg is focusing on communication, trust, and future innovation at Boeing to get the company on the right path. Ortberg, in a letter released to employees along with the company's third-quarter results, said Boeing's customers want — and need — the company to succeed. "With the right focus and culture, we can be an iconic company and aerospace leader once again," he wrote. "When you feel that the CEO is with you, and the CEO is feeling your pain, it makes it more tolerable and provides hope for the future," Franklin said.

☆ I got a free upgrade to an $11,500 seat in British Airways' business class. It was great, but one thing could've made it even better.

I booked a $720 round-trip economy ticket from Seattle to Manchester with British Airways. On my way back to the US, I received a surprise upgrade to business class. So, when I was upgraded to business class on a British Airways flight this past summer, I was absolutely delighted. British Airways, which has seen a decrease in popularity in recent years, is spending $9 billion over the next two years to upgrade its planes, customer perks, and other aspects of its business model. AdvertisementHere's what my 10-hour flight in British Airways' business class was like.

☆ A mega-earthquake could strike the Pacific Northwest any day — and we're not prepared

People along the coast now have 10 to 30 minutes to reach high ground before a giant wave engulfs the Pacific Northwest. The scene above is a worst-case scenario of a megaquake striking the Pacific Northwest. "It's ominously quiet," Harold Tobin, Washington's state seismologist and the director of the Pacific Northwest Seismic Network, told BI. The Pacific Northwest, by contrast, only found out about the danger posed by the Cascadia subduction zone in the 1980s. The Cascadia subduction zone pushed those mountains up about 10 million years ago, carving the mountain range that makes the Pacific Northwest so stunning.

A 15-year-old was charged Thursday with the murders of his parents and three siblings and in the attempted murder of another sibling who survived Monday’s attack at the family’s Washington state home. The 15-year-old was taken into custody on the day of the shooting and was being held in a detention facility for juveniles Thursday. One child in the home survived the attack and was hospitalized, the King County Sheriff’s Office said earlier this week. The 11-year-old told investigators the teen shot her and then left the room, and that she heard someone shouting, "stop" and "help," before she escaped, the detective wrote. Our thoughts are with his surviving family, friends, and colleagues during this difficult time.”

☆ Real-estate investors agree: Short-term rentals bring in more money but cause headaches. Here's the 'sweet spot' some are shifting to.

Investors agree: Short-term rentals are more lucrative but require more time than long-term rentals. Grant puts up with the occasional blow-up because her Airbnb units bring in a lot more money than her long-term rentals. Especially with higher interest rates, which increase your monthly mortgage payment, "long-term rentals are just hard," said seasoned real-estate investor Zeona McIntyre. Courtesy of Amberly GrantFull-time real-estate investor Avery Heilbron categorizes short-term and long-term rentals as "two completely different things."

Watch and get the facts about the US population and how America lives. I am Steve Ballmer, I spent 34 years growing Microsoft, 10 years owning the LA Clippers basketball team.
