Government to block incinerators that do not contribute to green plansCOLUMBIA, South Carolina -- Victims' families and others affected by crimes that resulted in federal death row convictions shared a range of emotions on Monday, from relief to anger, after President Joe Biden commuted dozens of the sentences . Biden converted the sentences of 37 federal death row inmates to life imprisonment without the possibility of parole. The inmates include people who were convicted in the slayings of police, military officers and federal prisoners and guards. Others were involved in deadly robberies and drug deals. Three inmates will remain on federal death row: Dylann Roof , convicted of the 2015 racist slayings of nine Black members of Mother Emanuel AME Church in Charleston, South Carolina; the 2013 Boston Marathon Bomber, Dzhokhar Tsarnaev ; and Robert Bowers, who fatally shot 11 congregants at Pittsburgh’s Tree of life Synagogue in 2018 , the deadliest antisemitic attack in U.S history. Opponents of the death penalty lauded Biden for a decision they'd long sought. Supporters of Donald Trump , a vocal advocate of expanding capital punishment, criticized the move as an assault to common decency just weeks before the president-elect takes office. Donnie Oliverio, a retired Ohio police officer whose partner was killed by one of the men whose death sentence was commuted, said the execution of “the person who killed my police partner and best friend would have brought me no peace.” “The president has done what is right here,” Oliverio said in a statement also issued by the White House, “and what is consistent with the faith he and I share.” Heather Turner, whose mother, Donna Major, was killed in a bank robbery in South Carolina in 2017, called Biden's commutation of the killer's sentence a “clear gross abuse of power” in a Facebook post, adding that the weeks she spent sitting in court with the hope of justice were now “just a waste of time.” “At no point did the president consider the victims,” Turner wrote. “He, and his supporters, have blood on their hands.” There has always been a broad range of opinions on what punishment Roof should face from the families of the nine people killed and the survivors of the massacre at the Mother Emanuel AME Church. Many forgave him, but they can’t forget and their forgiveness doesn’t mean they don’t want to see him put to death for what he did. Felicia Sanders survived the shooting shielding her granddaughter while watching Roof kill her son, Tywanza, and her aunt, Susie Jackson. Sanders brought her bullet-torn bloodstained Bible to his sentencing and said then she can’t even close her eyes to pray because Roof started firing during the closing prayer of Bible study that night. In a text message to her lawyer, Andy Savage, Sanders called Biden’s decision to not spare Roof’s life a wonderful Christmas gift. Michael Graham, whose sister, Cynthia Hurd, was killed, told The Associated Press that Roof’s lack of remorse and simmering white nationalism in the country means he is the kind of dangerous and evil person the death penalty is intended for. “This was a crime against a race of people," Graham said. “It didn’t matter who was there, only that they were Black.” But the Rev. Sharon Richer, who was Tywanza Sanders’ cousin and whose mother, Ethel Lance, was killed, criticized Biden for not sparing Roof and clearing out all of death row. She said every time Roof’s case comes up through numerous appeals it is like reliving the massacre all over again. “I need the President to understand that when you put a killer on death row, you also put their victims' families in limbo with the false promise that we must wait until there is an execution before we can begin to heal,” Richer said in a statement. Richer, a board member of Death Penalty Action, which seeks to abolish capital punishment, was driven to tears by conflicting emotions during a Zoom news conference Monday. “The families are left to be hostages for the years and years of appeals that are to come,” Richer said. “I’ve got to stay away from the news today. I’ve got to turn the TV off — because whose face am I going to see?” Biden is giving more attention to the three inmates he chose not to spare, something they all wanted as a part of what drove them to kill, said Abraham Bonowitz, Death Penalty Action’s executive director. “These three racists and terrorists who have been left on death row came to their crimes from political motivations. When Donald Trump gets to execute them what will really be happening is they will be given a global platform for their agenda of hatred,” Bonowitz said. Two of the men whose sentences were commuted were Norris Holder and Billie Jerome Allen, on death row for opening fire with assault rifles during a 1997 bank robbery in St. Louis, killing a guard, 46-year-old Richard Heflin. Holder’s attorney, Madeline Cohen, said in an email that Holder was sentenced to death by an all-white jury. She said his case “reflects many of the system’s flaws,” and thanked Biden for commuting his sentence. “Norris’ case exemplifies the racial bias and arbitrariness that led the President to commute federal death sentences,” Cohen said. “Norris has always been deeply remorseful for the pain his actions caused, and we hope this decision brings some measure of closure to Richard Heflin’s family.” ___ Swenson reported from Seattle.

One of the world's most active volcanoes, Kilauea, on Hawaii's Big Island, has started erupting again. or signup to continue reading The eruption was confined to the volcano's summit caldera, in a remote, closed area of Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, the Hawaii Volcano Observatory reported. Increased earthquake activity began at about 2am local time on Monday and within about half an hour webcam images began to show lava emerging through fissures in the caldera or spurting in fountains. The most immediate threat was from volcanic smog that could reach homes downwind, the observatory said. Such "vog" contains sulphur dioxide and can worsen symptoms for people who have conditions like asthma, other respiratory issues or cardiovascular disease. The area where the eruption is occurring has been closed to the public since 2007 due to hazards that include crater wall instability, ground cracking and rockfalls. Hawaii Volcanoes National Park encompasses the summits of two of the world's most active volcanoes: Kilauea and Mauna Loa. Kilauea also erupted in June and September.

Asian business owners and family offices are piling into US equities and real estateLOS ANGELES — Considering how their seasons have ebbed and flowed so far, and the history between the stars leading their teams, it’s only appropriate that the Lakers and Golden State Warriors match up for a Christmas Day showdown on Wednesday at Chase Center. Just a month ago, the Lakers and Warriors were sitting near the top of the Western Conference standings, opening the season with 10-5 and 12-3 records, respectively, entering Nov. 23. How much a month can change things. The Lakers (16-13) have gone 6-8 since then after dropping Monday’s home game to the Detroit Pistons to end their three-game winning streak. And the Warriors (15-13) have been even worse, winning just three of their last 13 games after starting the year at the top of the conference. But Wednesday will be another matchup between Lakers star LeBron James and Warriors star Steph Curry – two all-time greats whose careers have intersected to the point they’re considered by many to have one of the defining rivalries of the league’s modern era. “Anytime you get an opportunity to be on the court and compete versus one of the greats to ever play this game, you never take it for granted,” James said. “I don’t know how many more opportunities we’re gonna get to go against each other, so it’s always fun.” Wednesday will also mark the second time the Lakers and Warriors have played each other on Christmas in the past seven years, with the Lakers beating the Warriors on Dec. 25, 2018, in James’ first season with the Lakers. In addition to the 2018 matchup , James’ and Curry’s teams squared off on Christmas for three consecutive seasons (2015-17) when James was on the Cleveland Cavaliers. Curry didn’t play in the 2017 game. But matchups between James and Curry have historically had more at stake than Christmas Day game bragging rights. Their teams matched up in four consecutive NBA Finals (2015-18), with Curry’s Warriors winning the championship in 2015, ‘17 and ‘18 and James’ Cavaliers coming out on top in ’16 after coming back from a 3-1 series. “For me, as a fan, it was an awesome stretch,” Lakers coach JJ Redick said. “For me as a player, it wasn’t a great stretch because I wasn’t in those Finals. But it was great to have two of the icons of this generation go head to head and have some for sure classic series and then just also some classic games and classic moments. “Throughout the history of the NBA, player and team rivalries have been good for the league and that sort of captured a moment in our generation.” The Lakers and Warriors also played each other in the 2021 Play-In Tournament and the second round of the 2023 playoffs, with the Lakers winning both matchups “It’s going to be good,” Anthony Davis said. “We always have battles with them, we’ve seen them in the playoffs a couple of years. It’s going to be fun to go up to The Bay and try to get a win on Christmas Day.” Not including the Play-In Tournament game, Wednesday will mark the 53rd matchup between a team led by James and Curry. Curry’s teams have a 29-23 record in those matchups, including a 17-11 record in the playoffs. But the relationship between James, who’s in his 22nd NBA season and will return 40 on Monday, and Curry, who’s in his 16th NBA season and will turn 37 in March, has evolved over the years since consistently playing against one another in the Finals. James and Curry teamed up this past summer, leading Team USA to a gold medal in the Paris Olympics. “It’s a fun battle because of the longevity of how long we’ve been doing this,” Curry said during an appearance on ESPN’s “NBA Today” on Tuesday. “There’s more appreciation and respect than probably back in the day because there was a lot of pettiness and resentment. The rivalry was real but it evolves and you still want to go at each other, but the respect is there.” When : Wednesday, 5 p.m. Where : Chase Center, San Francisco TV/radio : ABC/ESPN, 710 AM
Last season, Connor Bedard was the NHL's rookie of the year. This season, he is one of the league's most frustrated stars. Bedard, 19, has three goals and 12 assists in 20 games for the Chicago Blackhawks , who are tied for the worst points percentage in the NHL (.375). Heading into Saturday's matchup at the Philadelphia Flyers , Bedard has gone 11 straight games without a goal. "I could name 100 things [I could do better]," Bedard said Friday. "I don't know, man. It has been frustrating, for sure. I just don't feel like I'm really doing anything. So just keep chipping away at it, I guess, and hopefully find my game again." While his point production hasn't fallen off drastically from his 61 points in 68 games last season -- good enough to win the Calder Trophy -- his goal-scoring pace has been cut in half. Bedard had 22 goals last season. Editor's Picks Top Blackhawks blueliner Jones to miss 4 weeks 1d NHL Power Rankings: Jets continue to fly high, plus what each team is thankful for this season 7h Arda Ocal "It's been a tough stretch," he said. "You just feel like you don't have it or whatever, and you lose a bit of confidence. And it just kind of goes on." Blackhawks coach Luke Richardson recently moved Bedard to a line with forwards Jason Dickinson and Joey Anderson , as the young center was shifted to the wing. That paid dividends against the Anaheim Ducks on Tuesday, with Bedard assisting on two Dickinson goals. The three went scoreless in Chicago's win over the Stanley Cup champion Florida Panthers on Thursday, however. They were dominated by center Aleksander Barkov 's line, getting outshot 8-0 with a 16-2 disadvantage in attempts, but didn't surrender a goal to Florida's top line. "We didn't bring him here to be a checker," Richardson said. "But just the way our team has a lack of scoring, we're hunkering down on the defensive side until we get a little more confidence offensively back." Bedard's take on his new role: If nothing else is working, why not try this? "I'm not doing much offensively at all, so I've got to find a different way to be productive," he said. "That was obviously different for me, but it's good to do that. It's good playing with those two guys. You learn a lot in that end. It's a lot less work than at center. It's just about positioning and knowing where to be." Bedard hasn't talked about a lack of confidence much since he was drafted first overall by the Blackhawks in 2023. Richardson said Bedard addressed the issue of confidence because it's "running through our team rapidly right now. ... When you see it once, then that's kind of the word that's in your mind to use in an interview." Whatever one calls it, Bedard hopes to get back on his game as the 2024-25 NHL season reaches its quarter mark. "Just keep going in every game," he said. "Trying to be the best me."

Girl hit by car while crossing road in LarkinThe Karnataka high court on Friday dismissed the anticipatory bail application filed by former MP Prajwal Revanna in a rape case involving a former member of the Hassan zilla panchayat. Justice M Nagaprasanna, presiding over a single-judge bench, announced the reserved order on Revanna’s application. During the hearing, G Arun, counsel for the petitioner, sought to withdraw the earlier bail plea, arguing that no charge sheet has been filed in the case. However, the court dismissed the application, stating that the decision was based on the complaint alone and not the absence of a charge sheet. “You can rest assured not a word from the charge sheet I have relied on. Only on the complaint. The application has been dismissed only on the basis of the complaint and Supreme Court’s judgments,” a news portal, Bar and Bench, quoted the high court. The allegations dated back to 2021 when the victim approached Revanna at his office in Hassan to discuss hostel facilities for girls at the BCM hostel. According to the complaint, Revanna asked the woman to come back the next day due to his busy schedule. When she returned, he allegedly pointed a gun at her, threatened her, and sexually assaulted her. The woman claimed that Revanna recorded the act on his mobile phone, later making repeated video calls, coercing her to undress, and recorded the interactions. She alleged that he threatened her with severe consequences if she disclosed the incidents. The woman filed a formal complaint with the Special Investigation Team (SIT) on May 1, 2024, leading to the registration of a case at the cyber police station of the Criminal Investigation Department (CID), Bengaluru. Revanna has been charged under multiple sections of the Indian Penal Code, including rape, criminal intimidation, sexual harassment, voyeurism, and assault to disrobe a woman. Additionally, provisions of the Information Technology Act have been invoked for privacy violations. This case is one of four rape cases filed against the 33-year-old former MP across Bengaluru and Hassan districts.
