Ask Amy: Momzilla threatens to stomp on wedding

Published Thu, 21 Nov 2024 20:19:29 GMT

Dear Amy: “Dear Daughter” is engaged to a great guy. She is finishing college and heading to grad school, so the wedding is likely 18 months away.I like the groom, but he has some strong opinions about the wedding!He wants a small wedding with only clergy, the couple, and parents present.He says he organized his brother’s wedding by himself, and it was fine (why was the bride’s family NOT involved?).Also, he wants to have the wedding in his home state, in the Midwest. (We live in the West.)When my daughter has noted that the bride and her family “traditionally” organize the wedding, his response is: “But it’s my wedding, too!”When I mention hiring a wedding planner, he disagrees (wait, who is paying for this?).I could plan the wedding myself, but I dread the hours online, phoning, or how many plane trips this will take! (However, I am willing to sample the champagne locally.)My compromise is a wedding out West, with a second reception in his hometown with his family or him in charge...

Un buzo filipino ayuda a eliminar con un cuchillo una barrera flotante instalada por China en el mar de China Meridional

Published Thu, 21 Nov 2024 20:19:29 GMT

(CNN) — Una barrera flotante instalada por China para impedir que los barcos filipinos pesquen en un área en disputa del mar de China Meridional fue eliminada, dijeron este lunes las autoridades filipinas, en el último punto de tensión entre Manila y Beijing por sus reclamos marítimos en competencia.Un video publicado por la Guardia Costera de Filipinas este lunes mostró a un buzo filipino cortando lo que dijo anteriormente era una cadena de boyas de 300 metros de largo cerca del Bajo de Masinloc, también conocido como Scarborough Shoal, un arrecife pequeño pero estratégico, y una zona de pesca fértil a 200 kilómetros al oeste de la isla filipina de Luzón.Las imágenes mostraban al buzo con una simple máscara y snorkel deslizándose bajo las olas y usar un pequeño cuchillo para cortar la cuerda después de alcanzar la barrera en un desvencijado barco pesquero con una pequeña tripulación.El video es una vívida ilustración de una tensa lucha de poder que se ha estado desarrollando ...

Ucrania dice que barcos rusos siguen lanzando ataques tras la supuesta muerte de un comandante mientras llegan los tanques Abrams estadounidenses

Published Thu, 21 Nov 2024 20:19:29 GMT

(CNN) — Buques de guerra rusos seguían lanzando ataques contra Ucrania tras la afirmación de Kyiv de que el comandante de la Flota del mar Negro de Moscú murió el pasado viernes, mientras el presidente Volodymyr Zelensky elogiaba la llegada de los tanques Abrams estadounidenses al país.Un portavoz de la Armada de Ucrania dijo este lunes en la televisión nacional que, mientras Rusia todavía lanzaba ataques desde el mar Negro, parecían, según la comparación, operaciones con “un pollo corriendo sin cabeza”.“En este momento, ellos (la Armada rusa) perdieron a la persona que realmente gestiona todo esto, y a su personal, que gestiona la flota junto con él. Se trata de una agrupación grande que requiere un gran número de gestores para ejecutar todos los procesos para que (la flota) funcione como un solo mecanismo. Imaginemos que la parte central de este mecanismo deja de funcionar”, dijo el portavoz de la Marina de Ucrania, Dmytro Pletenchuk.Pletenchuk dijo que el presidente de Rusi...

One of game’s characters, Guardians manager Terry Francona set to end career defined by class, touch

Published Thu, 21 Nov 2024 20:19:29 GMT

CLEVELAND (AP) — At some point in the next few days, Terry Francona will hop on his celebrated scooter, zip along the underground concrete concourses of Progressive Field and leave the ballpark he’s called home the past 11 seasons for the final time.His ride is nearly over.Although he hasn’t made it official — and true to form, Francona was adamant about not pulling the spotlight away from the Guardians during their playoff push — the 64-year-old manager has indicated he’ll step down after this season, perhaps the most challenging of his run with Cleveland.Slowed by major health issues in recent years, the personable, popular Francona may be stepping away, but not before leaving a lasting imprint as a manager and as one of the game’s most beloved figures.Adored by players. Respected by peers. Cherished by fans.Born into baseball, he’s been a lifer. As as kid, he grew up in Pennsylvania hoping to follow his father Tito’s footsteps into the big leagues, a...

Dolphins’ McDaniel skirts shot at history and Raiders’ McDaniels opts for a field goal mystery

Published Thu, 21 Nov 2024 20:19:29 GMT

Take a bow, Mike McDaniel, for taking a knee. Miami’s coach decided to forego a field goal that would have allowed the Dolphins to break Washington’s record 72-point game set in 1966 against the Giants. Instead, he had his offense go into victory formation on fourth down at the Denver 27 in the final minute of their 70-20 shellacking of the Broncos on Sunday.McDaniel’s magnanimous gesture allowed the Broncos to at least avoid infamy to go with the insult of becoming the first team to surrender 350 yards and five touchdowns both passing and rushing in the same game.“It would have been cool,” McDaniel said of scoring more points than anyone in the 104-year history of the NFL. “But … that’s not really what I’m about. I will be fine getting second-guessed by turning down NFL records. That’s fine.”Fins fans wanted the record, loudly voicing their displeasure that the Dolphins didn’t match the all-time NFL record established by the Chicago B...
