The Wall Street Journal reported on Sunday that the cuts, to be announced Wednesday, are expected to affect thousands of Meta’s 87,000 employees worldwide. Meta declined to confirm the report, but a spokesperson pointed to comments made by Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg late last month. “In 2023, we will focus our investments on a small number of high-priority growth areas,” he said. “This means some groups will grow substantially, but most other groups will remain flat or shrink over the next year....

He accused his rivals in France Unbowed of “manipulation” and his party also denied any personal attack on Mr Bilongo, a Paris-born teacher. “They understood, which I find hard to believe, that I was talking about the MP himself, which is completely false,” he said, calling Mr Bilongo “a colleague as legitimate as I am”. Ms Le Pen – who challenged Mr Macron in this year’s presidential election and then led her party to its best result in the next parliamentary election, with 89 seats – dismissed the row as a “crude dispute”....

Seit mehr als zwei Jahren ist es um die Klimabewegung ziemlich ruhig geworden. In diesem Sommer sind die Aktivisten aufgrund von Dürre, Waldbränden und Wasserknappheit zurückgekehrt. Im Juni und Juli blockierten Demonstranten der „Letzten Generation“ immer wieder die Zufahrt zur Autobahn in Berlin, im August blockierten Kollegen von „Ende Gelände“ den Hamburger Hafen. Am vergangenen Wochenende demonstrierte die „Verschwindensrevolution“ in der Hauptstadt. Dieser Freitag bildet den vorläufigen Abschluss dieses heißen Sommers: „Fridays for Future“ rief weltweit zu Klimastreiks auf....

More than 40 clinical psychologists have signed an open letter to the UK Association of Clinical Psychologists protesting the organisation’s recent position statement on the provision of services for gender-queer children and young people. They say they believe there was a failure to properly consult with experts in the field or service users, resulting in a “misleading” statement that “perpetuates damaging conversations about work and racial identities more widely”. Around half of these signatories are current or former senior post holders – including the current director – at the only NHS gender identity service for children in England and Wales, the Gender Identity Development Service (GIDS) at Tavistock and Portman NHS trust in London....

Gumpendorfer Straße: Neugestaltung geplant Seit langem wird darüber diskutiert, wie die Gumpendorfer Straße umgestaltet werden soll. Allerdings ist noch unklar, was in der wichtigen Verkehrsader möglich ist. Im Januar startet ein großes Bürgerbeteiligungsverfahren. Dass die 2,4 Kilometer lange Hauptverkehrsader des sechsten Arrondissements neu gebaut werden soll, ist längst Tatsache. Als Grundlage für den Dialog im Beteiligungsverfahren dient eine bestehende Analyse der Möglichkeiten der Gumpendorfer Straße, die vom Bezirk durch das Planungsbüro „Komobile“ durchgeführt wurde....

Shortly after 9:30 a.m., Hamilton police said they were called to Sir Allan MacNab High School to investigate an alleged assault. Const. Krista-Lee Ernst told CTV News Toronto that there was a “fight” between two students. As a result of the investigation, police arrested a 16-year-old boy and a 17-year-old girl for “first-degree assault.” “Several other incidents occurred and a 16-year-old was arrested for threats and a 36-year-old was arrested for disorderly conduct,” the news release states....

Enacted by the Coalition Avenir Québec (CAQ) government in June 2019, the Secularism Act, also popularly known as Bill 21, prohibits public school teachers, police officers, government lawyers and a host of other public servants — even some politicians — to wear religious symbols at work. Once it was passed, civil liberties groups, including the National Council of Canadian Muslims (NCCM) and the Canadian Civil Liberties Union (CCLA), began filing legal challenges....

Deshalb ist Hering so gesund Fische sind gesund, insbesondere Hering, aber wie viele andere Fischarten ist er von Überfischung bedroht. Vor allem der Omega-3-Gehalt, den Hering mit mehr als 15 Prozent Fett, teilweise sogar bis zu 28 Prozent enthält, ist sehr gesund und notwendig. Der menschliche Körper kann Omega-3-Fettsäuren nicht selbst herstellen und muss sie daher über die Nahrung aufnehmen. Die Fettsäure hat verschiedene Funktionen im Körper, etwa die Beteiligung an der Produktion von Hormonen, am Stoffwechsel von Zellen oder an der Versorgung von Gelenken....

Rob Gibson A Kelowna man who lives at the intersection of Gordon Drive and Cameron Avenue shared a video of a crash caught on his security camera. Samer Shehadeh tells Castanet that the crash happened just before 5pm on Saturday, October 29. “We heard it as it happened, the whole house shook and then I checked the cameras and saw that we got it on camera,” says Shehadeh. After hearing the crash and checking to see what had happened, he went to the opposite side to see if he could help and had a conversation with the officer at the scene....

The child was injured during the Highland Park Independence Day parade in a shooting that left seven people dead and dozens more injured. A bullet passed through Cooper’s upper abdomen and injured his spinal cord, esophagus and abdominal aorta, according to an earlier statement from his parents, Jason and Keely Roberts....

A police spokesman said in an email Thursday that officers were called to a construction site on Deschamps Avenue near Desrosiers Street, not far from Vanier Parkway, at about 2:50 a.m. Wednesday. “Digging at the site has revealed what are believed to be human remains,” police said. Police did not elaborate on what exactly was found, but two low-rise apartment buildings at 143 and 147 Deschamps were searched. They said forensic identification work was underway early Thursday afternoon....

Behind the wheel is Schumann, a 36-year-old mother of four who takes pride in her chosen profession. Shuman, who like many Indians goes by only one name, fought against the wishes of her husband and extended family to drive an e-rickshaw to care for her daughters, who range in age from 4 to 18. “I told them I don’t care what anyone says, I have to drive to give my daughters a better life,” Shuman said....

Midterm elections elect one-third of the US Senate and the entire House of Representatives, both of which are currently under Democratic control. Election forecasts have Republicans as overwhelming favorites to win back the House of Representatives and, increasingly, as slight favorites to retake the Senate. But regardless of which party holds the balance of power in Congress after the votes are counted, any change in power will have little impact on relations between Washington and Ottawa....

Ian made landfall in Cuba’s Pinar del Rio province, where officials set up 55 shelters, evacuated 50,000 people, rushed emergency personnel and took measures to protect crops in the country’s main tobacco-growing region. The US National Hurricane Center said Cuba suffered “significant wind and storm surge impacts” when the typhoon hit with top winds of 125 mph (205 kmh). Ian was expected to strengthen further in the warm Gulf of Mexico, packing winds of 130 mph (209 km/h) as it nears the southwest coast of Florida, where 2....

Bob Robichaud, Environment Canada warning preparedness meteorologist, said in a briefing Thursday that Hurricane Fiona is an “extremely powerful and dangerous storm.” “It will be as strong as [Hurricane] Juan when Juan made landfall in 2003 where there were extreme winds but they were concentrated in a small area?’ he said. “This storm will be larger in size compared to what Juan was, but maybe a little stronger than we saw with Dorian....

Indignation totale au sein du demi-cercle. Le député rebelle de la 8e circonscription du Val-d’Oise, Carlos Martens Bilongo, a interrompu un autre élu du camp du Rassemblement national, Grégoire de Fournas, accusant ce dernier d’avoir proféré une insulte raciale. Alors que Carlos Martens Bilongo prenait la parole pour dénoncer les catastrophes humaines liées à l’immigration clandestine, Grégoire de Fournas a ensuite lâché « Qu’il retourne en Afrique » ou « Qu’il retourne en Afrique »....

Biden’s student loan forgiveness plan: When does it start, who qualifies and how to apply? It was announced last August that a plan to access the student debt relief plan would come in October. That hasn’t happened yet, but CNN reports that the draft application is expected to be released very, very soon, so you should stay tuned for news or updates on the Federal Student Aid website as details will be posted there first....

The allegations come amid fears of a global food crisis over Ukraine’s inability to export millions of tonnes of grain through its blockaded ports. Here’s what we know: What are the categories? Ukrainian officials have accused Russia of stealing “several hundred thousand tons” of grain from Russian-occupied areas of Ukraine. “I personally hear it from many silo owners in the occupied areas. This is a clear robbery. “And this is happening everywhere in the occupied territories,” said Ukrainian Agriculture Minister Mykola Solskyi in April....
