LAS VEGAS — GOP candidate Sam Brown spent Thursday’s Nevada Senate debate taking shots at Democratic Sen. Jacky Rosen, as he still faces a polling deficit with Election Day creeping nearer. In contrast, Rosen spent the evening focusing largely on her own track record and roots in Nevada, hoping to stay above the fray and ride her polling lead. “It’s interesting that Senator Rosen would mention a desire to want to fine greedy corporations,” said Brown. And when moderators asked Rosen and Brown if Congress should do an independent investigation into UFOs, Rosen answered the question. Fearing that such rights could be undone in the future, reproductive rights advocates garnered enough signatures this summer to put on the ballot a measure to enshrine abortion rights into their state’s constitution.

Cleveland led 3-1 in the eighth before Aaron Judge hit a two-run homer off All-Star closer Emmanuel Clase and Giancarlo Stanton followed with a solo drive. The Fry and Noel shots came after Judge and Stanton had connected for their homers, putting the Yankees up 4-3 against Clase. But the Guardians aren’t done, and still have a chance to end the longest World Series drought, stretching to 1948. The 30th postseason matchup between the Guardians and Yankees was another tightly contested matchup between two franchises who know each other well this time of year. Cleveland finally got some length from a starter as Matthew Boyd went five innings, the most Guardians manager Stephen Vogt has permitted this postseason.

Though the Lynx missed five free throws, they attempted 11 more shots at the free throw line — much to Brondello’s dismay — and made six more free throws.

SEOUL, South Korea — North Korea has designated South Korea a “hostile state,” its state media said Thursday, confirming that its national assembly had amended the constitution in line with leader Kim Jong Un’s vow to drop unification as a national goal. South Korea’s Unification Ministry, which handles ties with the North, said it “strongly condemns” the constitution change and South Korea’s characterization as a hostile state, and that it will not waver in its efforts toward peaceful reunification. North Korea has previously announced summaries of amendments after several days of delay. North Korea sharply intensified its hostile rhetoric in recent days, accusing the South of intruding on its airspace by flying drones and vowing retaliation. South Korea’s government has declined to say whether its military or civilians flew the alleged drones.

☆ Panel Calls for Secret Service Overhaul in Report on Trump Shooting Attempt

An independent panel reviewing the failures that led to the attempted assassination of former President Donald J. Trump in July called on the Secret Service to replace its leadership with people from the private sector and focus almost exclusively on its protective mission. Those include the failure of the Secret Service to secure a nearby building where a rooftop would-be assassin fired eight shots toward Mr. Trump. That and other security lapses, members of the panel said, result from an absence of “critical thinking” among agents and supervisors. The panel was particularly struck by a “lack of ownership” conveyed by the agents it interviewed. A panel convened in 2014 after a man scaled the White House fence and entered the mansion made similar proposals.

DETROIT — A judge has approved a $13 million settlement in a lawsuit over an unannounced active shooter drill at a Michigan psychiatric hospital for children, an event that terrified kids and staff and caused them to scramble for cover, text family and urgently call 911. They were barricading the doors, trying to figure out how to protect the children.”Fifty children at the hospital each will receive roughly $60,000. “The state recognized that this was really a bad decision and harmed a lot of people,” she said of the drill. “We regret that our patients, staff and community were negatively affected by the unfortunate incident in December 2022,” she said. Wagner said the drill was organized by the Hawthorn Center’s safety director, who still works for the state.

☆ Novavax says FDA put hold on combination Covid-flu shot and influenza vaccine; shares plunge

Novavax on Wednesday said the Food and Drug Administration has put a hold on its application for a combination shot targeting Covid and influenza and a standalone flu vaccine, sending the company's shares down sharply. A clinical hold is an order issued by the FDA to a manufacturer to delay or suspend a proposed clinical investigation on a drug. Still, it appears to be a setback for the biotech company, which is scrambling to bring new products to market as demand for its Covid vaccine plummets worldwide. Novavax said it was working with the FDA to resolve the clinical hold on its combination shot and standalone flu vaccine. Novavax's shot, meanwhile, fends off the virus with protein-based technology, a decades-old method used in routine vaccinations against hepatitis B and shingles.

Smoke rises after North Korea blows up sections of inter-Korean roads on its side of the border between the two Koreas, according to South Korea's military, as seen from the South Korean side, October 15, 2024, in this screen grab from a handout video. South Korean Defense MinistryNorth Korea has blown up sections of inter-Korean roads and rail lines on its side of the heavily fortified border between the two Koreas, South Korea's military said on Tuesday, ratcheting up tensions on the Korean peninsula. The explosions came after Pyongyang pledged last week to completely cut off the inter-Korean roads and railways and further fortify the areas on its side of the border. Around 180 billion won ($132 million) in taxpayers' money was spent by South Korea to rebuild the inter-Korean road, according to the Yonhap news agency. North Korea on Friday said the drones had scattered a "huge number" of anti-North leaflets, in what it called political and military provocation that could lead to armed conflict.

CNN —Police in Toronto, Canada, are opening a hate crime investigation after shots were fired overnight into the window of a Jewish girls’ elementary school – the second time this year the school was targeted by gunfire, officials said. The investigation into the incident will be led by the agency’s Gun and Gang Task Force with assistance from its hate crime unit, he added. There were no injuries or reports of gunshots heard, and the building was empty because the school is currently closed for the Jewish High Holidays, Krawczyk said. The same school was also hit with gunfire in a similar incident in May, Krawczyk said. The agency has increased police presence in Jewish neighborhoods in recent weeks and will also do so at the school as the investigation unfolds, Krawczyk said.
