Their relationship was an emotional roller coaster for Lewinsky, and she became depressed as the affair disintegrated; her emotional state was extremely fragile by the time Starr’s prosecutors found her, Walters says. Starr’s people pushed her over the top, Walters says, and made her feel quite desperate. Lewinsky also tells Walters that her mother, Marcia Lewis, tried very hard to get her to break up the relationship. But Lewinsky admits to Walters that her own stubbornness kept her from heeding her mother’s advice....
The three-meter high metal structure is located near the Santiago Church’s ruins just outside Ayllón in Segovia, according to reports. It is similar to those which have been mysteriously appearing and disappearing in countries around the world in the last few weeks—from Romania, to the U.S., to England and the Netherlands. Several media outlets reported that the City of Ayllón issued an appeal to residents and those from neighboring areas to refrain from visiting the monolith due to its location on the ancient ruins....
A word to the wise, Doug: you’d better bone up fast. The friendly company that provides your electricity and fills that big skyscraper downtown is about to go the way of Ma Bell. Already, competitors are beginning to bite off big pieces of what used to be a monopoly franchise. Trials in New Hampshire and Illinois are letting consumers like Anderson pick the electric company of their dreams. States from California to Rhode Island are laying out the rules that will bring competition as early as 1997....
Some say the monorail’s childhood-theme-park affiliation may have helped put the proposal (which will require a tax hike) over the top in voters’ minds. “Most people’s views of the monorail were formed when they were little kids at Disney World,” admits Henry Aronson, head of Citizens Against the Monorail. “It’s that warm and fuzzy feeling. That’s tough to overcome.”
The Montana Department of Justice issued the alert for Adrianna Carreia on Monday. The alert says the girl was last seen being dropped off in an alley by her school in Anaconda at around 8 a.m. on Monday, but she never arrived at class.

The alert adds the girl may have been taken by Justin Timothy Taylor, 30, and Amanda Carreia, 31—her non-custodial parents who live in Washington....
The winning goal came early in the second half as right wingback Mohamed Hany blasted home a shot after a poor clearance in the 52nd minute. It was a deserved lead for the Egyptian side, which created the best chances of the match and consistently caused problems for Monterrey on the breakaway. Outside of a few half-chances in the first half and a Maxi Meza header on goal tipped over by the Al Ahly ‘keeper, Monterrey struggled to create much in attack....
Now, a new report suggests the credits are working. On August 11, the U.S. Census Bureau released results from their Household Pulse Survey, which collected responses from families before and after the arrival of the first CTC checks. The survey found that households with children were more likely to experience food insufficiency, or not having enough food to eat. Forty-seven percent of respondents reported spending part of their CTC payments on food....
The Ligue 1 club had prepared their new 2017-18 shirts ready for sale, but something looked wrong from the outset. Montpellier 13/10 to beat Nantes And they will now have to recall the offending items of clothing after spelling the club’s name on the shield incorrectly. ‘Montpelier’ was emblazoned on the replicas, with the club forced to say sorry to those fans affected by the error. “MHSC have been the victim of a badge error on the series of shirts that are on sale,” their statement read....

There were four major league games Wednesday in which a team was held to just one run. There were also two shutouts as Tigers starter Michael Fulmer flirted with a no-hitter against the Angels, and Aaron Sanchez helped the Blue Jays blank the Yankees.

Following Johor Darul Ta’zim (JDT’s) 3-0 win over Boeungket Angker in their group AFC Cup match on Wednesday, the Southern Tigers head coach Benjamin Mora has expressed his pleasure towards his men’s performance in the match. Despite needing a win to keep the pressure on Group F leaders Global, Mora fielded mostly backup and reserves players at the start of the match, as the former AFC Cup champions are set to face rivals Pahang in the second leg of their FA Cup quarter-final tie this Sunday....
The departure hasn’t silenced the critics. More than 60 Labour M.P.s, backed by a clutch of national newspapers, are calling for the dome’s early closure to avoid further bail-outs. And with an election expected next year, the Conservative opposition is relishing the chance to bash the ministers who originally backed the dome. Just one problem for the Tories: the project was sanctioned under the last–Conservative–government.
Congresswoman Jaime Herrera Beutler of Washington’s 3rd district and Congressman Fred Upton of Michigan’s 4th district both announced that they would vote to impeach late on Tuesday.

New Zealand Police Minister Stuart Nash announced this week that more than 32,000 prohibited weapons have been returned to the government since collections began in mid-July. Some estimates put the number of newly banned military-style semi-automatic rifles in the country at up to 175,000. This would suggest a compliance rate, so far, as low as 18 percent, 16 weeks into the buyback program. With seven weeks left to go until the amnesty period ends, if the current rate of return holds, the New Zealand government is on track to collect around 50,000 prohibited weapons pursuant to the buyback....
Cyble told the website that hackers were able to obtain Zoom users’ email addresses, passwords, meeting URL links and host keys through a cyberattack scheme called “credential stuffing,” where data previously leaked by another online source is extracted from areas of the dark web and used to compromise new accounts. The National Security Agency (NSA) detailed this tactic in a 2018 advisory memo, which noted that anyone who uses the same login credentials to access multiple accounts (an individual whose Facebook and Zoom passwords match, for example) is especially vulnerable to this form of cyber threat....
The open letter was addressed directly to the nation’s 10 largest insurance companies. Although some insurers have already committed to waiving some costs associated with COVID-19 care and treatment, the advocacy groups argued that all insurers must make an immediate commitment to cover all costs. “A few insurance companies have made such commitments to varying degrees and time frames. This is a crucial first step. We urge you to fully commit to eliminating all patient cost-sharing for COVID-19 related medical expenses during this pandemic,” the groups wrote in the letter....
In the study, which was published in Cancer Epidemiology in September, the researchers analyzed data from 2,795 people divided into two control groups and two cancer groups. The results indicated that the protective effect against breast and prostate cancer was most significant in the people who exercised in the morning (between the hours of 8 a.m. and 10 a.m.). The results held even when the researchers adjusted for other factors, such as participants’ sleep routines and meal timing....
