TAIPEI, Taiwan (AP) — China’s military sent 103 warplanes toward Taiwan in a 24-hour period in what the island’s defense ministry said Monday was a daily record in recent times.The planes were detected between 6 a.m. on Sunday and 6 a.m. on Monday, the ministry said. As is customary, they turned back before reaching Taiwan.China, which claims Taiwan as part of its territory, has conducted increasingly large military drills in the air and waters around Taiwan as tensions have grown between the two and with the United States. The U.S. is Taiwan’s main supplier of arms and opposes any attempt to change Taiwan’s status by force.Taiwan’s Defense Ministry said that 40 of the planes crossed the symbolic halfway point between mainland China and the island. It also reported nine naval vessels in the previous 24 hours.The ministry called the Chinese military action “harassment” that it warned could escalate in the current tense atmosphere. “We urge the Beijing authorities to bear responsibili...Reigniting vaccine leadership in the EU

In an era marked by rapid technological advancements and fierce global competition in health, the European Union’s position and attractiveness as a hub for pharmaceutical innovation and manufacturing has faced a steady decline. While the vaccines industry constitutes a relatively small segment within the broader pharmaceutical sphere, it holds paramount importance for the EU. Based on findings from a new report commissioned by Vaccines Europe and developed by Charles River Associates, the European Commission’s industry scorecard demonstrates that the health industry delivers the second highest level of investment value when compared to other innovative industries. It also significantly contributes to the EU economy, providing hundreds of thousands of jobs each year while also serving as an investment that delivers health and prosperity, protecting people against infectious diseases at all stages of life.By January 2022, the EU had contributed to nearly 40 percent of the world’...Callahan: Patriots offense fails to deliver again, putting season in danger

FOXBORO — The dam appeared to break Sunday with 8:45 remaining.Out of the dam flowed shock, disappointment, grief, frustration. All thanks to Raheem Mostert.Leading 17-10, Mostert burst through the middle of Bill Belichick’s defense and left waves of stadium silence in his wake on a 43-yard sprint to the end zone. The first defender to touch him was a teammate who patted him on the back as he reached the Dolphins’ sideline.Miami had seemingly broken a Patriots team that had achieved the following: a fourth-quarter interception of Tua Tagovailoa, holding Tyreek Hill to 40 harmless yards and a blocked field goal.All the Pats needed was an average showing from their offense. Mac Jones and Co. couldn’t deliver.Again.The Patriots scored two touchdowns, including one on the drive immediately after Mostert’s dagger. Great.They also coughed up two turnovers: an early fumble by rookie receiver Demario Douglas and a gross interception in the third quarter.

FOXBORO — Patriots quarterback Mac Jones for the second straight week had the ball in his hands with the chance to extend the game and came up short in excruciating fashion.The Patriots took over from their own 45-yard line after a missed 55-yard kick from Dolphins kicker Jason Sanders down 24-17. The Patriots went 22 yards on five plays to set up a fourth-and-3 from the Dolphins 33-yard line. Quarterback Mac Jones hit tight end Mike Gesicki for what appeared to be heading for a 1-yard loss. Gesicki, with some heads-up thinking, lateraled to guard Cole Strange. The play was initially ruled a first down. On further review, Strange was decided to be inches short.That was game. The Dolphins kneeled on the ball to squeak past the Patriots, who are now 0-2 on the young season, 24-17.Rookie cornerback Christian Gonzalez made the play of the day, intercepting Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa on a deep ball to wide receiver Tyreek Hill that had just a little bit too much air under it wit...Sunday Forecast: Partly to mostly cloudy skies

Published Sat, 09 Nov 2024 23:16:15 GMT
It’s been 60 years since celebrated English theater director Sir Tyrone Guthrie opened the Minneapolis theater that now bears his name. And it’s worth remembering that one of his central missions was to create new productions of “the classics.”The Guthrie’s season-opening take on Oscar Wilde’s “The Importance of Being Earnest” provides a welcome reminder that “the classics” don’t have to be suffered through like a necessary medicine, good only for your intellectual edification but not particularly flavorful. Director David Ivers’ vibrant staging strikes an ideal balance between silliness and thoughtful social satire, taking what can be an overly wordy play and lending it a delightful physicality, augmented by a consistently eye-catching design scheme.Among the keys to its success is Ivers’ emphasis upon the eccentricities of each of its nine characters. Almost every actor has crafted a memorable creation in this outrageous comedy of manners, taking Wilde’s words in all sorts of inve...Fred Astaire hosts 3rd annual Havana Nights
