Government ‘dragging its feet’ on tackling anti-Semitism, campaigners sayLuigi Nicholas Mangione, the suspect in the fatal shooting of a healthcare executive in New York City, apparently was living a charmed life: the grandson of a wealthy real estate developer, valedictorian of his elite Baltimore prep school and with degrees from one of the nation's top private universities. Friends at an exclusive co-living space at the edge of touristy Waikiki in Hawaii where the 26-year-old Mangione once lived widely considered him a “great guy,” and pictures on his social media accounts show a fit, smiling, handsome young man on beaches and at parties. Now, investigators in New York and Pennsylvania are working to piece together why Mangione may have diverged from this path to make the violent and radical decision to gun down UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson in a brazen attack on a Manhattan street. The killing sparked widespread discussions about corporate greed, unfairness in the medical insurance industry and even inspired folk-hero sentiment toward his killer. But Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro sharply refuted that perception after Mangione's arrest on Monday when a customer at a McDonald's restaurant in Pennsylvania spotted Mangione eating and noticed he resembled the shooting suspect in security-camera photos released by New York police. “In some dark corners, this killer is being hailed as a hero. Hear me on this, he is no hero,” Shapiro said. “The real hero in this story is the person who called 911 at McDonald’s this morning.” Mangione comes from a prominent Maryland family. His grandfather, Nick Mangione, who died in 2008, was a successful real estate developer. One of his best-known projects was Turf Valley Resort, a sprawling luxury retreat and conference center outside Baltimore that he purchased in 1978. The Mangione family also purchased Hayfields Country Club north of Baltimore in 1986. On Monday, Baltimore County police officers blocked off an entrance to the property, which public records link to Luigi Mangione’s parents. Reporters and photographers gathered outside the entrance. The father of 10 children, Nick Mangione prepared his five sons — including Luigi Mangione’s father, Louis Mangione — to help manage the family business, according to a 2003 Washington Post report. Nick Mangione had 37 grandchildren, including Luigi, according to the grandfather's obituary. Luigi Mangione’s grandparents donated to charities through the Mangione Family Foundation, according to a statement from Loyola University commemorating Nick Mangione’s wife’s death in 2023. They donated to various causes, including Catholic organizations, colleges and the arts. One of Luigi Mangione’s cousins is Republican Maryland state legislator Nino Mangione, a spokesman for the lawmaker’s office confirmed. “Our family is shocked and devastated by Luigi’s arrest,” Mangione’s family said in a statement posted on social media by Nino Mangione. “We offer our prayers to the family of Brian Thompson and we ask people to pray for all involved.” Mangione, who was valedictorian of his elite Maryland prep school, earned undergraduate and graduate degrees in computer science in 2020 from the University of Pennsylvania, a university spokesman told The Associated Press. He learned to code in high school and helped start a club at Penn for people interested in gaming and game design, according to a 2018 story in Penn Today, a campus publication. His social media posts suggest he belonged to the fraternity Phi Kappa Psi. They also show him taking part in a 2019 program at Stanford University, and in photos with family and friends at the Jersey Shore and in Hawaii, San Diego, Puerto Rico, and other destinations. The Gilman School, from which Mangione graduated in 2016, is one of Baltimore’s elite prep schools. The children of some of the city’s wealthiest and most prominent residents, including Orioles legend Cal Ripken Jr., have attended the school. Its alumni include sportswriter Frank Deford and former Arizona Gov. Fife Symington. In his valedictory speech, Luigi Mangione described his classmates’ “incredible courage to explore the unknown and try new things.” Mangione took a software programming internship after high school at Maryland-based video game studio Firaxis, where he fixed bugs on the hit strategy game Civilization 6, according to a LinkedIn profile. Firaxis' parent company, Take-Two Interactive, said it would not comment on former employees. He more recently worked at the car-buying website TrueCar, but has not worked there since 2023, the head of the Santa Monica, California-based company confirmed to the AP. From January to June 2022, Mangione lived at Surfbreak, a “co-living” space at the edge of touristy Waikiki in Honolulu. Like other residents of the shared penthouse catering to remote workers, Mangione underwent a background check, said Josiah Ryan, a spokesperson for owner and founder R.J. Martin. “Luigi was just widely considered to be a great guy. There were no complaints,” Ryan said. “There was no sign that might point to these alleged crimes they’re saying he committed.” At Surfbreak, Martin learned Mangione had severe back pain from childhood that interfered with many aspects of his life, including surfing, Ryan said. “He went surfing with R.J. once but it didn’t work out because of his back,” Ryan said, but noted that Mangione and Martin often went together to a rock-climbing gym. Mangione left Surfbreak to get surgery on the mainland, Ryan said, then later returned to Honolulu and rented an apartment. An image posted to a social media account linked to Mangione showed what appeared to be an X-ray of a metal rod and multiple screws inserted into someone's lower spine. Martin stopped hearing from Mangione six months to a year ago. An X account linked to Mangione includes recent posts about the negative impact of smartphones on children; healthy eating and exercise habits; psychological theories; and a quote from Indian philosopher Jiddu Krishnamurti about the dangers of becoming “well-adjusted to a profoundly sick society.” Mangione likely was motivated by his anger at what he called “parasitic” health insurance companies and a disdain for corporate greed, according to a law enforcement bulletin obtained by AP. He wrote that the U.S. has the most expensive healthcare system in the world and that the profits of major corporations continue to rise while “our life expectancy” does not, according to the bulletin, based on a review of the suspect’s handwritten notes and social media posts. He appeared to view the targeted killing of the UnitedHealthcare CEO as a symbolic takedown, asserting in his note that he is the “first to face it with such brutal honesty,” the bulletin said. Mangione called “Unabomber” Ted Kaczynski a “political revolutionary” and may have found inspiration from the man who carried out a series of bombings while railing against modern society and technology, the document said. Associated Press reporters Lea Skene in Baltimore; Jennifer Sinco Kelleher in Honolulu; Maryclaire Dale in Philadelphia; John Seewer in Toledo, Ohio; and Michael Kunzelman in Washington, D.C., contributed to this report.

FMCG sector boosts hiring of freshers amid rapid growth in India's food processing industry: ReportTikTok star Breckie Hill has squashed rumours linking her to Barry Keoghan , claiming she's "never met" the actor amidst speculation of an affair allegedly leading to his split with pop star Sabrina Carpenter . The 31-year-old social media influencer became the subject of rumours that she was the reason for the couple's breakup but took to TikTok to clear the air, insisting she has only seen the 32-year-old star on TV in 'Saltburn'. In her TikTok video, she explained: "I just recently got out of the hospital. I got into a skiing accident and I broke my spine. "Now that I’m out of the hospital, I just wanted to make this video and address these rumours that have been circulating all throughout the internet. To put it simply for you all, no, I did not get with Barry. I have never encountered this man in my life. The only time I’ve seen him is on my TV from watching Saltburn." READ MORE: Barry Keoghan shares impact Sabrina Carpenter cheating rumours have on his young son's life READ MORE: Barry Keoghan reveals reason for Instagram deactivation as he slams 'inhumane' abuse Meanwhile, Barry Keoghan chose to shut down his Instagram account amid the chaos, pleading with online trolls to stop tarnishing his hard-earned reputation . After deactivating his account, he expressed his anguish on Twitter : "I can only sit and take so much. My name has been dragged across the internet in ways I usually don't respond to." "I have to respond now because it's getting to a place where there are too many lines being crossed. I deactivated my account because I can no longer let this stuff distract from my family and my work. The messages I have received no person should ever have to read them. Absolute lies, hatred, disgusting commentary about my appearance, character, how I am as a parent and every other inhumane thing you can imagine." "Dragging my character and everything I worked extremely hard for and stand for." Barry, who has been candid about his upbringing in the care system in Ireland, has a two-year-old son, Brando, with his ex-partner Alyson Sandro. He pleaded with social media users to be "respectful", reminding them that his son will read all of this when he's older. He continued: "Talking about how I was a heroine baby and how I grew up and dragging my dear mother into it also. Knocking on my grannies door." Sitting outside my baby boys house intimidating them. Thats crossing a line. Each and every day I work harder to push myself on every level to be the healthiest and strongest person for that boy. "I want to provide opportunities for him to learn, fail and grow. I want him to be able to look up to his daddy, to have full trust in me and know I will have his back no matter what. I need you to remember he has to read ALL of this about his father when he is older. Please be respectful to all. Thank you." Former Disney Channel star Sabrina cast Barry in her music video for 'Please Please Please' earlier this year. She recently finished the North American leg of her 'Short n Sweet' tour and is set to tour Europe in March 2025. Meanwhile, Barry is currently working on a film adaptation of 'Peaky Blinders' for Netflix . Saltburn sensation Barry has been defended by sources close to him, who claim he was "very present" in his relationship while juggling fatherhood and a blossoming romance. His commitment to his two-year-old son Brando, whom he shares with former partner Alyson Sandro, didn't hinder his role as a supportive boyfriend. An insider shared with People: "He was a fantastic boyfriend to her and was very present through all she was going through as her career took off – he worked very hard to be there for her when she needed someone most. They had a great relationship and he really cared deeply about her – which you could see via the comments he would often leave on her Instagram page. He is at his strongest and happiest and is the best version of himself to date. "He has been very resilient and triumphed through a lot to be in this place. He worked hard to get here and remains focused – and though he and Sabrina are on a break – that isn’t setting him back in any way – he has a lot of fortitude." The source also made it clear that infidelity was not the reason behind their split, adding: "He was always very faithful to her from the start, there was no third party involved in their break or at any other point in their relationship. Reports indicating otherwise are entirely fabricated."

City leaders in Cottage Grove continue to look for state assistance and direction in solving the homelessness and housing challenges in the city. Cottage Grove Police check on people during the Aug. 22 transition day deadline at the 12th Street homeless camp. The city leaders have said it is up to the state to take the lead in developing the solutions, and in funding those solutions. Homelessness and housing are part of the nine priorities adopted by the League of Oregon Cities' (LOC) Board of Directors for the 2025 and 2026 Oregon legislative sessions. The priorities have been identified through a committee process during the spring of this year, and a vote by the LOC’s 241 member cities this summer. The following nine issues received the most votes and were adopted by the LOC Board: The LOC will advocate for a comprehensive infrastructure package that supports increased water, sewer, stormwater, and road investments from that state. Without continual infrastructure investments, communities cannot build needed housing; these two priorities are inherently linked. To this end, the LOC will advocate for continued state investments to support the development and preservation of a range of needed housing types and affordability. The LOC will support a robust, long-term, multimodal transportation package focused on: stabilizing funding for operations and maintenance for local governments and ODOT; continued investment in transit and bike/ped programs, safety, and congestion management; and completion of projects from HB 2017. This objective includes support for a transition from a gas tax to a road user fee and improved community safety and livability. The LOC will introduce legislation to protect cities and other landowners who open their property for recreational purposes from tort liability claims. The LOC will support legislation to expand access to behavioral health treatment beds and allow courts greater ability to direct persons unable to care for themselves into treatment through the civil commitment process. The LOC will advocate for legislation that increases the flexibility to use locally administered and collected lodging tax revenue to support tourism-impacted services. These services include public safety, community infrastructure, and housing-related investments. The LOC will support a comprehensive homeless response package to fund the needs of homeless shelters, homeless response efforts statewide, and capital projects. Funding will include baseline operational support to continue and strengthen coordinated regional homeless response and include a range of shelter types and services and other related services. The LOC will support actions to maintain affordable, reliable, and resilient energy resources and invest in programs and new technology that support energy efficiency, renewable energy, battery storage, and resilient communities. These efforts will help address members’ concerns about increased costs associated with energy usage. The LOC will advocate for funding apprenticeship training programs and expanding bilingual training opportunities to promote the workforce development of qualified wastewater and drinking water operators. The LOC will advocate public policy that allows cities to respond to the unique needs of their community’s housed and unhoused members. This advocacy will include adjustments to ORS 195.530 to provide cities with the necessary tools to address unsafe camping conditions, safeguard public spaces, and protect the health, safety, and wellness of all community members. Public works crews are in the process of establishing a new smaller homeless camp site at th...

Camso is a Canadian brand that makes tyres for tractors, harvesters, bulldozers and other off-highway vehicles which command higher margins compared to tyres for passenger vehicles and two wheelers. Domestic tyre maker Ceat, an RPG-Harsh Goenka group company, will acquire Camso brand that has an off-highway tyre business from global major Michelin for USD 225 million, translating to about INR 1,900 crore. Under the deal, Ceat will also acquire two Sri Lanka-based manufacturing facilities from Michelin, a French tyre maker. Camso is a Canadian brand that makes tyres for tractors, harvesters, bulldozers and other off-highway vehicles which command higher margins compared to tyres for passenger vehicles and two wheelers. Michelin had in 2018 acquired the brand for nearly USD 1.5 billion. "The Camso brand is an excellent fit with the growth strategy of Ceat's off-highway tyre business, thereby improving our margin profile," Arnab Banerjee , MD & CEO at Ceat, was quoted as saying in a company release. Over the last decade, Ceat has been focusing on building its off-highway and tracks (OHT) business, which now consists of over 900 product offerings and covers around 84% of the range requirement in the agricultural segment, the release said. Camso will give Ceat the ability to widen its product base into tracks and construction tyres. The acquisition will give Ceat access to a global customer base including over 40 international original equipment manufacturers and premium international OHT distributors. "Ceat brings in the ability for Camso to expand to other segments such as agriculture tyres. Both brands are highly complementary in their positioning and capabilities," a Ceat release said. Ceat is one of India's leading tyre companies that manufactures tyres for passenger cars, two-wheelers, trucks, buses, light commercial vehicles and off-highway vehicles. It caters to leading OEMs as well as domestic and international markets, exporting to 110+ countries, the release from the company said. Camso, meanwhile, is one of the leaders in the OHT market. Ceat and Camso together could have the synergies to expand to other segments such as agriculture tyres. In Friday's relatively flat session, Ceat's stock on BSE closed a marginal 0.2% up at INR 3,092.

Keir Starmer will announce the measure on Monday. via Associated Press Drink spiking is to be made a criminal offence under Labour plans to halve violence against women and girls. Keir Starmer will confirm the move as part of efforts to “reclaim our streets” from criminals. The prime minister will meet with police chiefs, hospitality industry executives and transport bosses on Monday to discuss how best to crack down on the practice of putting drugs in drinks. Advertisement Thousands of staff working in the nighttime economy will be trained up on how to spot it happening. A pilot scheme will be launched in December and then rolled out to 10,000 bars across the country by spring next year. Starmer said: “My government was elected on a pledge to take back our streets, and we will never achieve this if women and girls do not feel safe at night. “Today, I will bring together police chiefs, heads of industry and transport bosses to demand coordinated action to stop women being targeted, whether they are out with friends or simply travelling home. “Cracking down on spiking is central to that mission. “We know it can be incredibly difficult for victims to come forward to report this awful crime, and these cases can be very hard to prosecute. We must do more to bring the vile perpetrators who carry out this cowardly act, usually against young women and often to commit a sexual offence, to justice. Advertisement “That is why I made a promise that, if elected, I would make spiking a new criminal offence. Today, I am proud to have come good on that pledge.” Home secretary Yvette Cooper said: “Spiking is a disturbing and serious crime which can have a damaging and long-lasting impact on victims. “People shouldn’t have to worry about the safety of their drinks on a night out. These changes are about giving victims greater confidence to come forward, and ensuring that there is a robust response from the police whenever this appalling crimes take place”. Kate Nicholls, chief executive of UK Hospitality, said: “Our pubs, bars, clubs and restaurants are where Brits go to enjoy themselves and our priority is to ensure everyone can do that safely. “I’m pleased that we’re able to support the Home Office in its plans to roll out a nationwide training programme as part of these efforts, to help ensure all staff know how to prevent spiking and have the skills to act if they suspect someone has been spiked.” Advertisement Related labour party keir starmer drink spiking No, Keir Starmer Is Not Going To Call An Election Just Because Lots Of People Have Signed A Petition Elon Musk's Weird Obsession With Keir Starmer Is Showing No Sign Of Going Away Eric Trump Criticises Starmer's 'Awfully Silly' Decision To Let Ukraine Fire British Missiles Into Russia
