Abbas’ accusation, made during a press conference alongside Scholz, also prompted calls for a tougher response from Germany and its leader, who has been criticized for remaining silent rather than pushing back and only later expressing his displeasure at the observation. “For Israel to accuse Abbas of committing ’50 Holocausts’ while standing on German soil is not only a moral disgrace, but a monstrous lie,” Lapid wrote in English. “History will not forgive him....

“Where do I see it ending? With me at the top, as always.” — Saul James Morgan McGill and Walter White join forces one last time midway through “Saul Gone.” It’s a flashback to the two of them hiding in the basement of the vacuum shop around the episode “Granite State” Breaking Bad, they each wait for Ed to hide them in their new lives under assumed identities. Their conversation is a reminder of Walt’s arrogance, as well as his disdain for Saul: When Saul suggests he could sue Gray Matter on Walt’s behalf, Walt dismisses him as the last lawyer he would ever use for such work....

In the Republican primary, according to the Associated Press, Penn lost by a wide margin to Duke Aona. Aona has nearly 52 percent of the vote with 90 percent of precincts reporting. Penn has just over 24 percent of the ballots counted, which would have placed him as runner-up, but he was still edged out by Aiona....

But for all their similarities, the political fortunes of U.S. Sen. Lisa Murkowski of Alaska and U.S. Rep. Liz Cheney of Wyoming are poised to diverge Tuesday when each is on the ballot in closely watched primaries closely. Cheney faces daunting prospects in her bid to fend off Trump-backed Harriet Hagman, looking increasingly to a life beyond Capitol Hill that could include a possible presidential campaign.

The incident took place in what is known as the “Playpen,” a walled-off area of ​​the lake between the Oak Street and Ohio Street beaches.

The actual competition on the field didn’t live up to last year’s heroics, when the White Sox shutout the Yankees, but the Chicago Cubs and Cincinnati Reds still had fun. “There’s no way it takes anything away from the day we had here,” Reds manager David Bell said after his side’s 4-2 defeat. “It’s a great experience. I’ve heard so many people across our club say it’s something they’ll remember for the rest of their lives....

Pelosi was the highest-ranking member of the US administration to visit Taiwan in 25 years, and her trip led to nearly two weeks of threatening military exercises by China, which claims the island as its own. In those drills, Beijing fired missiles over the island and into the Taiwan Strait and sent warplanes and navy ships to the waterway’s median line — a long-standing buffer zone between the two sides, which were divided amid civil war in 1949....

The plaque was given by the husband, surnamed Lee, to his wife after she gave birth to their daughter. It reads: “Congratulations on having a baby girl! Giving birth to a child is awesome, Zhang Yingxiao! August 2022.” Since the plaque was created earlier, it incorrectly lists the daughter’s birth as August 2022, although she was born on July 31. “My wife’s expected due date was August 6, but she started having contractions on July 30 and gave birth to our child the next day,” Li told Wutong Video....

But younger Democrats and climate activists want more. They see the bill as an advance and worry that a complacent electorate will believe Washington has finally solved climate change — when in fact scientists warn it has only taken the necessary first steps. “This bill is not the bill that my generation deserves and needs to fully prevent climate catastrophe, but it is what we can pass given the power we have right now,” said Varshini Prakash, 29, co-founder ....

Much of Europe has faced weeks of baking temperatures that have also depleted the water levels of Germany’s Rhine River and seen the source of Britain’s River Thames drying up further than in previous years. High temperatures and a worsening drought have led to a high risk of new fires breaking out in the Gironde, southwest France, local officials said, even after an overnight suspension of control of the days-burning blaze has burned thousands of hectares and displaced 10,000 people....

Centuries ago, stones lining dried-up riverbeds were marked to warn future generations that their exposure meant famine was imminent. Several European rivers, including the Elbe, Rhine and Oise, preserve what have come to be known as ‘hunger stones’, bearing grim warnings to those unlucky enough to look them in the eye. A stone on the bank of the river Elbe, in the town of Decin, Czech Republic, emerged this year....

Activists have targeted efforts to replace most of the Southampton to London Underground by tampering with equipment and “attacking” it with angle wheels, a judge has said.

The Southampton-London pipeline project, which received development permission in October 2020, aims to replace 90km of pipeline between Boorley Green in Hampshire and Esso’s west London storage terminal at Hounslow, near Heathrow Airport....

First Lady Jill Biden has tested positive for the coronavirus and will self-isolate and begin a course of antiviral treatment, the White House said. “After testing negative for COVID-19 on Monday during her routine testing, the First Lady began experiencing cold-like symptoms late at night,” her spokeswoman Elizabeth Alexander said in a statement. “A rapid antigen test came back negative, but the PCR test came back positive.” Alexander noted that Jill Biden, 71, is “double-vaccinated, twice-boosted and has only mild symptoms....
