DETROIT (AP) — The new president of the United Auto Workers gave his strongest warning yet Friday that the union is preparing for strikes against Detroit’s three automakers when contracts expire in September.In a Facebook Live appearance to address members, Shawn Fain said the union is in a strong position to make major gains in talks with Stellantis, Ford and General Motors, “but only if our members get organized and are ready to strike.”Fain repeated the union’s goals of winning back cost-of-living pay raises and pensions lost as the industry faced financial peril in 2009. They also want general pay raises and elimination of tiers of workers who are paid different wage rates, many for doing the same jobs. The union also wants to represent workers at joint-venture electric vehicle battery plants and get them top wages.Whether there are strikes depends on how the companies react, Fain said, repeating that the automakers have made billions in the past 10 years but haven...Former North Carolina health official is picked to be new CDC director

TALLINN, Estonia (AP) — President Vladimir Putin on Friday touted Russia’s prospects at the country’s main international economic forum despite heavy international sanctions imposed because of the war in Ukraine.Western officials and investors steered clear of the year’s St. Petersburg International Economic Forum, which began Wednesday and continues through Saturday. For decades, the gathering has been Russia’s premier event for attracting foreign capital, sometimes likened to the World Economic Forum held in Davos, Switzerland. The Kremlin banned journalists from “unfriendly” countries from covering the proceedings. Moscow gave that designation on scores of countries that sanctioned Russia over its invasion of Ukraine, including the United States, Canada, European Union members and Australia.Officials did not provide a list of the foreign businesses attending, but the program for the more than 100 panel discussions showed a marked majority of the speakers hailing from ...Hilary Knight patiently excited awaiting launch of women’s pro hockey league, upbeat on her future

Patience remains the operative word from Hilary Knight on the Professional Women’s Hockey Players’ Association’s long-awaited bid to launch its own professional league.“I’m not anxious yet. You know, I’m on the board, so I get a little peek behind the curtain so to speak,” one of USA Hockey’s most decorated and longest-serving players told The Associated Press this week.The PWHPA — now a certified union — is in negotiations with its corporate partners (Billie Jean King Enterprises and Los Angeles Dodgers co-owner Mark Walter) to hammer out a collective bargaining agreement. “I know people who aren’t necessarily in the mix are like, `What’s going to happen next year? How’s this going to work? It’s already mid-June.′ And I totally get that,” Knight said. “So I’m excited about this year. I think that’s all I can say.”Knight’s assessment follows a recent letter the PWHPA sent to its membership saying it is at “the finish line” of negotiations with only a few details le...¿Por qué el rey Carlos III celebra dos cumpleaños? El origen del desfile Trooping the Colour
Published Mon, 23 Dec 2024 10:20:43 GMT
(CNN) — El papel de rey de Reino Unido conlleva una larga lista de ventajas, pero quizá una de las más envidiables sea la posibilidad de celebrar tu cumpleaños no una, sino dos veces al año.El rey Carlos celebró su primer cumpleaños real como monarca el 14 de noviembre. Pero este fin de semana volverá a celebrar su gran día: la primera vez que disfruta de un cumpleaños “oficial” desde que ascendió al trono.Desde el siglo XVIII, los reyes y reinas de Reino Unido han duplicado sus festejos, celebrando tanto una fiesta pública —el cumpleaños oficial— como un acto más privado en la fecha real.La razón es muy sencilla: nadie quiere que la lluvia le estropee el desfile, así que, desde 1740, los monarcas han programado sus pomposas fiestas para el verano.Se cree que la tradición comenzó con el rey Jorge II en 1748. Ese es el año en que la celebración anual británica de Trooping the Colour se asoció por primera vez con el cumpleaños del soberano. Al igual que Carlos III, J...Deion Sanders may lose his foot due to circulation issues

The Associated Press reported that he had injured a toe and had a procedure in September that left him using crutches and a scooter to get around the field.

He had several surgeries and complications and eventually had his big toe and second toe amputated due to blood clots.Sanders, also known as "Coach Prime" became the head coach of the Colorado Buffaloes in December. Now, he is at risk of losing his whole foot.A clip from Wednesday's episode of "Thee Pregame Show" a video series that documents the football season, showed a meeting with orthopedic surgeon Dr. Kenneth Hunt an...European officials support plan that could ease Ukraine’s move into NATO
Published Mon, 23 Dec 2024 10:20:43 GMT
Support for easing Ukraine’s pathway to NATO membership is growing within the alliance, increasing the likelihood that the proposal becomes official during a major gathering next month.NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg has privately suggested that allies agree Ukraine could join NATO after the war without following a Membership Action Plan, which is a series of military and democratic reforms an applicant nation must make before accession.Removing the MAP hurdle speeds up Ukraine’s bid to become an ally, but doesn’t provide any timeline or guarantees that Kyiv will eventually receive unanimous approval for its membership.That falls short of Ukraine’s wishes to join right away but goes further toward making them eventually come true. President Joe Biden is “open” to the plan and told Stoltenberg as much during their discussion in Washington on Tuesday. As NATO’s most important member, U.S. support goes a long way to waiving the MAP requirement during the alliance’s July summit ...Latest news
