The World and Everything in It: August 1, 2022 (WORLD News Group)

On Legal Docket, religious liberty cases percolating in the lower courts; on Moneybeat, how to measure the health of the economy; and on History Book,…

President Carter assumed America needed the Department of Energy to lead it in a world heading toward energy scarcity. This is The World and Everything in It from listener-supported WORLD Radio. I’m Mary Reichard. To the first of them I’ve given the name of our blessed savior, trusting in whose aid I had reached this and all the rest, but the Indians called it Guanahani. To each of the others I also gave a new name ordering one to be named Sancta Maria de Concepcion, another Fernandina, another Isabella and another Johanna and so with all the rest. And yet, we have a Department of Defense that is just absolutely insistent on either driving good men and women out of the military that have a religious objection to this COVID shot. It's just that that positive number of exports, the flat number of business investment, it wasn't enough to offset consumption decline and an inventory decline. The court kind of tapped on the microphone and said, Hey, look is this thing on? A rubber stamping that the judge said the Navy is engaged in here. DYS: Yeah, these are little dog tags, or little additions of the dog tags anyway, that Kenny made just as a way to encourage men and women that are on the battlefield. That money has just been sitting in escrow for the last almost nine years, waiting for that to be returned to Aaron and Melissa. They've gone to the Supreme Court once. They've had to go back to the state of Oregon, they've had multiple levels of appeal in Oregon. And just recently, they actually had some of that money returned, but the decision itself has not been disturbed at all. She confirmed Sunday that she’ll lead a delegation to Singapore, Malaysia, South Korea and Japan—but no mention of Taiwan, following threats from the Chinese government. And I knew I had to get out of there.

Early Edition: August 1, 2022 (Just Security)

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has announced mandatory evacuation from the Donetsk region. In his nightly address on Saturday Zelenskyy called on the ...

In its next round of public hearings in September, the Jan. 6 committee is expected to focus on the intelligence and law enforcement failures of the FBI and Department of Homeland Security. Those failures, which left police underprepared for the attack on the Capitol, will also be a key component of the committee’s final report. The House on Friday passed a bill to ban the sale of assault-style weapons largely on party lines. The protests follow a CNN investigation which uncovered evidence of a gold operation siphoning Sudanese wealth to Russia to boost its war effort in Ukraine and Russian collusion with the military leadership of Sudan. Nima Elbagir reports for CNN. The 55-page naval doctrine says Russia will aim to become a “great maritime navy” with a presence across the world to counter the “strategic policy of the USA to dominate the world’s oceans.” “Guided by this doctrine, the Russian Federation will firmly and resolutely defend its national interests in the world’s oceans, and having sufficient maritime power will guarantee their security and protection,” the doctrine reads. However, the unrest has prompted fears of further violence, with NATO saying that its peacekeeping forces in Kosovo were “ready to intervene if stability is jeopardized.” Valerie Hopkins reports for the New York Times. In his nightly address on Saturday Zelenskyy called on the remaining residents to leave the region urgently in what he called a “government decision.” The government has created a coordination center to help evacuate the residents of Donetsk to safer parts of Ukraine, Iryna Vereshchuk, Ukraine’s deputy prime minister, told reporters earlier on Saturday. The evacuation will be carried out by trains and by buses, and those who refuse to evacuate will have to sign “a certain form of refusal from mandatory evacuation” stating they understand and are aware of all the consequences of staying in the combat zones and bear personal responsibility for their lives, Vereshchuk added. Ukraine’s military has accused Russia of deliberately shelling a jail containing Ukrainian POWs in the eastern Donetsk region, while Russia’s Defense Ministry has accused Ukraine of striking the prison. The Ukrainian president specifically called on the U.N. and the International Committee of the Red Cross (I.C.R.C), saying those bodies “must react” to the bombing. “We see all the brutality of Russian forces, that actually resemble a lot of ISIS, who we have been always calling a terrorist organization,” Rinkēvičs told POLITICO in a phone interview. “The world will be watching for continued implementation of this agreement to feed people around the world with millions of tons of trapped Ukrainian grain.” U.S. Ambassador Bridget A. Brink called the development “progress.” Olga Voitovych, Vasco Cotovio and Jo Shelley report for CNN. The ship, the Razoni, was led by a government vessel through a maze of mines that had been laid by Ukrainian forces to forestall any attempt by Moscow to launch an assault on Odesa. A rescue ship followed and Russia’s Navy, which controls the Black Sea, granted safe passage. The visit to Singapore is the first official stop in a high-profile Asia tour that has attracted international attention over speculation that Pelosi may visit Taiwan. Jessie Yeung reports for CNN.

<i>T&C</i> Horoscopes: August 1—15 (TownandCountrymag.com)

A bi-monthly look at what's to come for your sign courtesy of T&C's master astrologer, Katharine Merlin.

August 1—15th: Geminis crave movement and variety and once Mercury—your ruling planet—enters Virgo on the 4th, everything will liven up. August 1—15th: Your ability to think out of the box will work in your favor near the 1st and aspects near the 3rd hold financial promise. Venus in Cancer now accents warmth and closeness except on the 9th so be ready to be diplomatic and the full Moon of the 12th is a particularly positive one for you, especially socially. The 7th will confront you with contradictions and the 9th is the time to get emotionally charged issues on the table and be painfully honest. With Mercury entering your birth sign on the 4th, your brain will be working overtime to plan and prepare but whatever comes up near the 7th will challenge you to be highly inventive. August 1—15th: Be ready to ride the changes because with Mars in Taurus making some tricky aspects, you will have to be very centered to stick with your plans on the 1st, 7th and 14th.

The review found that the chemical came from the propellant used to spray sunscreen out of the can. Wade (1973) and ending the constitutional right to an abortion could steal some of the GOP's momentum, but high inflation and the normal rhythm of election cycles continue to lift Republicans in polls. The fund's chairman, Ian Cheshire, said the charity's five trustees were "wholly" responsible for the decision, and "any attempt to suggest otherwise is misleading and inaccurate." Dozens of people remained unaccounted for as the latest storms threatened further flooding and some areas remained difficult for search crews to reach. Tensions have risen in the state as the vote neared, with people posting opposing yard signs in front of their homes, and Republican and Democratic activists tapping into anger over the issue to encourage high turnout. The first ship carrying Ukrainian grain left the Odesa port on Monday under a deal seeking to get a backlog of crops out of the country to ease a growing global hunger crisis. The company announced Friday that tests showed that the product, Banana Boat Hair & Scalp Sunscreen Spray SPF 30, had small amounts of the chemical. Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear warned people in parts of the state to brace for more rain late Sunday and early Monday as the death toll from devastating floods rose to at least 28. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi arrived in Singapore early Monday to start an Asian tour with scheduled visits to Malaysia, South Korea, and Japan to discuss what she called "shared interests," including trade, the coronavirus pandemic, climate change, and security.
