(KRON) -- Gail McGovern, CEO and president of the American Red Cross, will retire next year, the humanitarian organization announced on Tuesday. McGovern, who has been at the helm of the organization for more than 15 years, will retire on June 30, 2024, the Red Cross said.The Red Cross Board of Governors has elected Chief Operating Officer Cliff Holtz as its next president and CEO, according to its succession plan. McGovern is the Red Cross' longest-serving CEO since Clara Barton.“It has been the honor of my life to lead the American Red Cross and be part of an organization that serves millions of people at times when they are at their most vulnerable. The extraordinary skill, compassion and commitment I have seen in our more than 300,000 volunteers and employees across this country humbles me every single day,” said McGovern. “I could not be prouder of how we have stepped up to address the challenges of our time.” THC gummies found in candy stash at Bay Area elementary school Dur...Biden’s Conspiracy Theory About Gaza Casualty Numbers Unravels Upon Inspection

President Joe Biden, asked last week what his government planned to do to reduce the number of civilian casualties in Gaza, responded by rejecting the idea that the numbers could be trusted. “I have no notion if Palestinians are telling the truth about how many people are killed,” Biden said on Wednesday. “I’m sure innocents have been killed and it is the price of waging war,” he added. “But I have no confidence in the number that Palestinians are using.”A new analysis by The Intercept provides evidence refuting that claim.Biden’s effort to delegitimize the numbers coming out of Gaza as fake news has created an opening for defenders of Israel’s indiscriminate bombing campaign to dismiss the crisis; they note Hamas governs Gaza, therefore runs the Ministry of Health and is inflating the figures. (Biden later clarified he meant to say he didn’t trust Hamas, not all Palestinians, according to the Wall Street Journal.)Biden’s claim was quickly rejected by human rights organi...Hendrick Motorsports took a gamble on William Byron. Now he’ll try to win his 1st Cup title

CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Rick Hendrick first met William Byron as a local Charlotte teenager, fan of Hendrick Motorsports and budding NASCAR driver. Something about the 15-year-old struck Hendrick, who recognized a young talent with a potentially bright future in NASCAR. Hendrick snagged Byron away from the Toyota camp in 2016, promoted him to the Cup Series in 2018 when he was 20 years old and fresh off an Xfinity Series championship and gave him the tools to become a star. It’s paid off as Byron heads to Phoenix Raceway this week with a shot at winning his first Cup title. With a Cup Series-high six wins this season, Byron seemed a lock to make the championship finale but had to squeeze out every position Sunday at Martinsville Speedway to edge Denny Hamlin for the fourth spot in the winner-take-all title race. It’s the kind of performance Hendrick expected out of Byron, who he likens to the late David Pearson, a three-time Cup champion and Hall of Famer.

WASHINGTON DC – Varios manifestantes interrumpieron este martes una audiencia en el Senado estadounidense mientras hablaba el secretario de Estado, Anthony Blinken, sobre el plan de Joe Biden para aprobar una partida presupuestaria urgente de más de 100,000 millones de dólares que incluye ayudas a Israel y a Ucrania.En la audiencia, abierta al público, participaron varias personas, quienes desde que Blinken tomó la palabra levantaron sus manos, pintadas de rojo, simbolizando la sangre. Después, en una acción coordinada, comenzaron a interrumpir la audiencia con carteles de protesta y al grito de “Alto el fuego ahora, salven a los niños de Gaza. ¿Dónde está tu orgullo América?”. Las acciones de Hamas podrían inspirar ataques en EEUU, dice el jefe del FBI, Christopher Wray “No tener miedo”, así fue el valiente relato de reconocida actriz en medio de la guerra Las interrupciones se sucedieron varias veces, con un B...Los Angeles to host 2026 Pan Pacific swimming championships ahead of 2028 Summer Olympics

LOS ANGELES (AP) — The 2026 Pan Pacific Championships will be moved from Canada to Los Angeles, giving the city a chance to host a major international swimming meet ahead of the 2028 Summer Olympics.The agreement between the charter nations of Australia, Canada, Japan and the U.S. was announced Tuesday. The Pan Pacs are held every four years, rotating between the four countries.Canada had been set to host in 2022, but the meet was postponed to 2026 because of the COVID-19 pandemic. It will look to host a future edition, having previously hosted in 2006 at Victoria, British Columbia.“The Pan Pacific Championships are always important for our team, and are going to be even more so given the uncertainty around the 2026 Commonwealth Games,” Swimming Canada High Performance Director John Atkinson said in a statement.The Commonwealth Games are currently without a host nation after Australia withdrew, citing cost overruns.The venue and dates for the Pan Pacs will be announced later.___Foll...Players to watch from one-bid leagues include Weber State’s Jones, UNC Asheville’s Pember

Weber State’s Dillon Jones and UNC Asheville’s Drew Pember had every reason to decide they’d done enough at this level.Yet both returned to school in part because they wanted their college careers to have a better finish.Jones’ team suffered a double-overtime loss in a Big Sky Conference Tournament semifinal. Pember’s squad reached the NCAA Tournament but got blown out in the opening round.Now they’re back for one more season as two of the most decorated players from traditional one-bid conferences.“I’m not overly emotional about it, but it would have been definitely hard for me to take that step and not feel like I left it off in the right way,” Jones said.Jones, a 6-foot-6 forward, participated in the G League Elite Camp and the NBA combine after leading Weber State in points (16.7), rebounds (10.9), assists (3.8) and steals (1.6) per game last season. He ultimately decided to return to school rather than beginning his pro career.He never really considered transferring to a high-m...El desencanto de los estadounidenses por el “candy corn”, en 2 gráficos

En 2022, los consumidores estadounidenses gastaron más de US$ 3.700 millones en caramelos durante las seis semanas previas a la festividad.¿El dulce favorito de los consumidores? El chocolate, que los estadounidenses compraron en una proporción de casi 2:1. Y en el mundo del chocolate, el chocolate con leche es el rey: más gente compró chocolate con leche la pasada temporada de Halloween que todos los demás dulces sin chocolate juntos.Pero mientras que las ventas por unidad de caramelos de chocolate se han mantenido estables en comparación con hace cinco años, los caramelos de otro tipo son el mercado en crecimiento.

The top three get European tour cards. The leading player can go to final stage of Q-school on the PGA Tour, which at least assures a level Korn Ferry Tour status.His question that day in July: “Is it better to play DP World Tour or Korn Ferry Tour?” he said. Nakajima wants to follow in the steps of Hideki Matsuyama, except that he considers conversational English a priority.The money is better on the European tour — roughly three times higher, including the Rolex Series events — the travel is more extensive and the variety of golf is far greater on a tour that goes to two dozen countries.
