EU rejects criticism for slow vaccine rollout across bloc

BRUSSELS (AP) — The European Commission has defended its coronavirus vaccination strategy amid growing criticism from member nations about the slow rollout of COVID-19 shots across the region with 450 million inhabitants. Vaccination programs in the 27-nation bloc have gotten off to a slow start and some EU members have been quick to blame the EU’s executive arm for a perceived failure of delivering the right amount of doses. EU Commission spokesman Eric Mamer said Monday the main problem with the deployment of vaccination programs “is an issue of production capacity.” The EU says it has signed vaccine contracts to get access to 2 billion doses.

NEW YORK (AP) — The 2021 Grammy Awards will no longer take place this month in Los Angeles and will broadcast in March due to a recent surge in coronavirus cases and deaths.
The Recording Academy told The Associated Press on Tuesday that the annual show would shift from its original Jan. 31 broadcast to a later date in March.
The Grammys will be held in Los Angeles at the Staples Center. Los Angeles County, the epicenter of the crisis in California, has surpassed 10,000 COVID-19 deaths and has had 40% of the deaths in California.

VIRUS TODAY: Record US deaths come on day of Capitol attack
| null | null |
wqow.com
|
The U.S. registered its highest deaths yet from the coronavirus on the very day the mob attack on the Capitol laid bare some of the same, deep political divisions that have hampered the battle against the pandemic. The virus is surging in virtually every state. The same day that supporters of President Donald Trump stormed the Capitol, the nation recorded nearly 3,900 deaths. Meanwhile, the number of Americans seeking unemployment aid fell slightly last week to 787,000. The historically high number shows that even with the recession in its 10th month, many businesses are still laying off workers.

German financial oversight head out after Wirecard scandal

BERLIN (AP) — Germany’s finance ministry says the head of the country’s financial supervisory authority is to leave the job as the agency is reorganized in the aftermath of the accounting scandal at payment systems provider Wirecard. Finance Minister Olaf Scholz said after the scandal erupted last year that he wanted to revamp the country’s financial oversight system. One-time tech star Wirecard filed for protection from creditors through insolvency proceedings after admitting that 1.9 billion euros ($2.3 billion) that was supposedly held in trust accounts in the Philippines probably didn’t exist. The finance ministry said that it and BaFin president Felix Hufeld decided by mutual agreement on Friday that, as well as organizational changes, a “new beginning” is needed in the agency’s leadership.

Samsung scion Lee won't appeal prison sentence for bribery

SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — Samsung scion Lee Jae-yong will not appeal a court ruling that sentenced him to two and a half years in prison for bribing South Korea’s then-president for business favors. Lee’s lawyers informed reporters of the decision on Monday as prosecutors faced a deadline for filing an appeal to the Supreme Court, which would extend the legal saga over South Korea’s largest business group. They had sought a 9-year prison term for Lee, whose case highlighted often-corrupt ties between the country’s family-owned conglomerates and politicians. The bribery allegation involving Lee was a key crime in the 2016 corruption scandal that ousted Park Geun-hye from the presidency and sent her to prison.

LACEY, N.J.

Holtec International last month received $116 million from the U.S. Department of Energy to complete research and development work on a modern nuclear reactor that could be built at the site of the former Oyster Creek Nuclear Generating Station in the Forked River section of Lacey Township. The Camden company proposes building a new, smaller reactor, which would be a nationwide demonstration project, but has not yet formally applied for permission to do so.

NEW DELHI (AP) — Tens of thousands of farmers drove a convoy of tractors into the Indian capital as the nation celebrated Republic Day in the backdrop of agricultural protests that have grown into a rebellion and rattled the government. Rows upon rows of tractors bearing flags of India and farm unions swarmed the roads as the farmers shouted against Prime Minister Narendra Modi and what they call his “black laws.” A farmer marching with his family of five said: “We want to show Modi our strength. We will not surrender.” The farmers oppose new laws they say will commercialize farming and devastate their earnings. The tractor rally overshadowed Republic Day celebrations in New Delhi scaled down because of the pandemic.

EXPLAINER: Hong Kong mass arrests chill democracy movement
| null | null |
wqow.com

HONG KONG (AP) — The sudden arrest of dozens of pro-democracy activists in Hong Kong is a clear sign of Beijing’s determination to rein in political opposition in the former British colony. The roundup is the most sweeping use of a new national security law to date. It is being widely condemned by Western government officials and human rights groups and will likely further chill an already dwindling protest movement in the semi-autonomous Chinese territory. Beijing has been unrelenting in its efforts to prevent any repeat of anti-government protests in 2019 that grew increasingly violent in response to the government’s refusal to entertain the protesters’ demands.

BOGOTA, Colombia (AP) — Rescue workers in Colombia are trying to locate more than 20 migrants whose boat sank as it tried to reach Panama. News of the sinking was first reported by officials in Acandi, a municipality along the Gulf of Uraba, an inlet of the Caribbean sea that is lined by dense jungle. Thousands of undocumented migrants cross the gulf each year on small boats. Migrants traveling through the Uraba region are mostly trying to make it to the United States. Many come from Cuba and Haiti. But it is also common to see migrants from Africa and Asia along this route.

Lingering questions about how Trump will finish out his term

WASHINGTON (AP) — As President Donald Trump’s term comes to a close, his unconventional approach to the office lingers over the usually carefully choreographed transfer of power. There are plenty of unanswered questions about how he will spend his last six days in office. More pardons may be afoot. There’s also uncertainty about when he will leave town and whether he will reach out to President-elect Joe Biden. Last week the White House invited Biden to spend the night of Jan. 19 at Blair House. Officials do not expect Trump to invite Biden to the White House for the traditional pre-inauguration tea on Wednesday, but they said it is still a remote possibility.

YOSEMITE NATIONAL PARK, Calif. (AP) — Yosemite National Park will remain closed through the weekend after high winds that battered much of California knocked down two giant sequoias and caused millions of dollars in damage. The park says it hopes to reopen Tuesday except for areas south of Yosemite Valley that will remain shut to visitors for safety reasons. A spokesman tells the Sacramento Bee that high winds on Monday toppled the sequoias. They also crushed trucks and damaged buildings, including employee homes. Crews were working to repair downed electrical lines, especially in the Wawona area, which had lost power.

TAIPEI, Taiwan (AP) — China is trying to spread doubt about the effectiveness of Western vaccines and the origin of the coronavirus as a World Health Organization-selected team of scientists are in the city where the pandemic began. Controls imposed on information about the disease by the ruling Communist Party have prompted questions about what the scientists will be allowed to see. Meanwhile as vaccines roll out worldwide, Beijing appears to be trying to blunt the impact of reports China’s are less effective. Chinese officials, trying to deflect criticism of their response, are suggesting the virus came from a U.S. military lab or other foreign source.

Historic school set to be demolished

CADOTT (WQOW) - Any day now, St. Joseph school in Cadott is coming down and bringing with it 102 years of memories. In 1919, on Easter Sunday, the St. Rose of Lima parish decided to build this school.
"As populations grew and families moved in, there seemed to be a need for a school," said All Saints Catholic Parish Deacon, Ned Willkom.
Willkom said in the early days, the Sisters lived in the building, and as transportation was not as accessible as it is today, some students lived there as well.
"In fact my mother was one of those early boarders back in the 1930's when kids from the country side would stay on the third floor with the Sisters and on the weekends they would go home," he said.
Throughout its history, the school has evolved. At its peak, more than 200 students attended. Eventually, the Sisters stopped being the instructors. Most recently, St. Joseph went from educating first through eighth grades to becoming an early childhood education center.
Willkom graduated from St. Joseph in 1968 and said his fondest memories are of the Sisters.
"I remember of course the good food, but I remember the good Sisters and so I remember them fondly for the most part," he recalled.
But after a tornado damaged the building last summer, the school was deemed more of a liability than it was useful; even the flagpole was lost.
"It may be bittersweet, but it's the practical matter and just like the church itself we're always looking forward," Willkom said.
Willkom said the cross above the front door will be saved, along with the 1919 cornerstone. And, for anyone with fond memories in the school, some bricks will be saved and sold in a future school fundraiser.
The school closed its doors but still exists. In 2013, it merged with St. Josephs in Boyd, leaving behind the building now awaiting its demolition. But while this piece of Cadott history is going away, it will carry on in the memories of the hundreds that walked its halls.
After its demolition, the space will be used as a parking lot for St. Rose of Lima church.

CANBERRA, Australia (AP) — The foreign ministers of Australia, the United States, Great Britain and Canada have issued a joint statement expressing serious concern about the arrest of 55 democracy activists and supporters in Hong Kong last week. The arrests were by far the largest such action taken under a national security law that China imposed on the semi-autonomous territory a little more than six months ago. The statement says that it is clear that the National Security Law is being used to eliminate dissent and opposing political views. China says the law is needed to restore order in a city that was rocked by protest in 2019.

LONDON (AP) — Lawyers representing the family of a Black man who was shot dead by police in Ireland say they will meet with police ombudsman investigators to seek to find out what happened. Dozens of people have gathered in Dublin in the past few days to protest the death of 27-year-old George Nkencho on Dec. 30 in west Dublin. Irish police say that Nkencho threatened members of the public and unarmed police officers with a knife. Police said shots were fired after less lethal force options failed to resolve the incident. The family’s lawyer said Nkencho suffered from mental illness and the family have grave concerns about how police handled the incident that led to Nkencho’s death.

The nation’s biggest immunization rollout in history is facing pushback from an unlikely source: health care workers who witnessed COVID-19′s devastation firsthand but are refusing shots in surprising numbers. It is happening in nursing homes and, to a lesser degree, in hospitals. Some employees expressing what experts say are unfounded fears of side effects from vaccines that were developed at record speed. Alarmed by the phenomenon, some administrators have dangled everything from free breakfasts at Waffle House to a raffle for a car to get employees to roll up their sleeves.

ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP) — The Iditarod, the world’s most famous sled dog race, has lost another major sponsor as it prepares for a scaled back version of this year’s race because of the pandemic. ExxonMobil confirmed to The Associated Press on Thursday that the oil giant will drop its sponsorship of the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race after the 2021 running. The move comes after ExxonMobil, which has been a race sponsor since 1978, received pressure from one of its shareholders and the race’s biggest critic, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals. This year’s race has been shortened to 860 miles. The race will start on March 7 and end near Anchorage and not run to Nome as usual.

MILWAUKEE (AP) — Giannis Antetokounmpo scored 43 points and the Milwaukee Bucks defeated the Detroit Pistons 125-115 to move above the .500 mark for the first time this season. The reigning two-time MVP scored 30 points by halftime, shot 17 of 24 from the floor overall and finished with nine rebounds. The Bucks have won their last eight regular-season meetings with the Pistons, which represents the longest streak for either team in the history of the series. Detroit played without two of its top three scorers in Blake Griffin and Josh Jackson. Jerami Grant and Derrick Rose led the Pistons with 24 points each.

St. Louis' 2020 homicide rate is highest in 50 years

ST. LOUIS (AP) — St. Louis recorded its worst homicide rate for 50 years in 2020, even though the total number of homicides last year fell just short of the city’s all-time record. Police say 262 people were killed in St. Louis last year — five less than the record of 267 set in 1993. But because the city’s population has declined since 1993, the homicide rate was much higher in 2020. The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports that the city’s homicide rate hit 87 killings per 100,000 residents in 2020, the highest on record since 1970. The figure exceeds the previous high of 69 per 100,000 people set in 1993.

COPENHAGEN, Denmark (AP) — A Norwegian financial body says a landslide that hit a village north of the capital late last month, will cost insurance companies at least 900 million kroner ($107 million). Seven people were killed and three remain missing after the landslide hit Ask, a village of 5,000 located 25 kilometers (16 miles) northeast of Oslo. It was among the worst landslides in modern Norwegian history. Finance Norway, which represents 240 financial companies, said in a statement Thursday that the figure is an estimate. Many houses and buildings have either been damaged or swept away. On Tuesday, Norwegian authorities said they have given up hope of finding survivors.

Yemen's PM says airport attack aimed to 'eliminate' Cabinet

CAIRO (AP) — Yemen’s prime minister says that an attack on the airport in Aden was meant “to eliminate” the country’s new government as it arrived in the southern city. Prime Minister Maeen Abdulmalik Saeed spoke on Saturday to The Associated Press at his office in the Mashiq Palace in Aden. It was his first interview with international media after he survived Wednesday’s attack that killed at least 25 people and wounded 110 others. The new Yemeni government was formed in December to end a dangerous political rift with southern separatists who are backed by the United Arab Emirates. Yemen’s internationally recognized government is backed by Saudi Arabia which leads a military intervention against the country’s Iran-backed rebels.

Slack, the messaging service used by millions of people for work and school, suffered a global outage, the first day back for most people returning from the New Year’s holiday. It’s the latest tech glitch to show how disruptive technical difficulties can be when millions of people are depending on just a few services to work and go to school from home during the pandemic. The company stopped releasing its daily user count after topping 12 million last year. Slack apologized Monday and asked users to check for updates at https://status.slack.com. The outage began around 10 a.m. Eastern and service is disrupted the U.S., Germany, India, the U.K., Japan and elsewhere.

Lebanon considers tighter lockdown amid coronavirus surge

BEIRUT (AP) — Lebanon’s caretaker prime minister says the country has entered a “very critical zone” in the battle against the coronavirus as his government mulls tightening the nationwide lockdown announced last week. That lockdown and a nighttime curfew were imposed following a new post-holiday surge in infections. But many were critical of the government measures, calling them lax for exempting many sectors, such as factories, plant nurseries and exchange bureaus. The government’s handling of the pandemic amid a deepening economic crisis has been under scrutiny, with many saying that hesitant policies have failed to contain the virus. ICU bed occupancy has reached over 88% in the country of nearly 6 million.

MADRID (AP) — Most of Europe kicked off 2021 with earlier curfews or stay-at-home orders amid sharp spikes in coronavirus infections increasingly blamed on the more contagious variant first detected in the U.K. But authorities in Spain say the variant causing havoc elsewhere is not to blame for its sharp resurgence of cases and that the country can avoid a full lockdown even as its hospitals fill up. The government has been tirelessly fending off drastic home confinement like the one that paralyzed the economy for nearly three months in the spring of 2020, the last time that Spain could claim victory over the stubborn rising curve of cases.

MOSCOW (AP) — Dozens of people protesting Kazakhstan’s opposition-free election have been arrested in the country’s capital and in its principal city. Five parties are competing Sunday for seats in the lower house of parliament, but all are loyal to the government. The country’s only registered opposition party declined to field candidates. More than 30 demonstrators were detained in the principal city of Almaty, according to the news agency Akipress. The Interfax news agency said more protesters were also detained in the capital, Nur-Sultan. The ruling Nur Otan party is expected to maintain or increase its current domination of the parliament of the former Soviet republic, which is rich in oil, gas and mineral resources.

CALAIS, France (AP) — France’s government is casting a favorable light on a reported bid by the father of Britain’s prime minister to take up French nationality. A French minister said Friday that it shows how attached Britons are to the European Union that they’re no longer part of. Reports that Stanley Johnson, the 80-year-old father of British Prime Minister Boris Johnson, is seeking to keep a foot in Europe by taking up French citizenship caused a stir as his son was heralding Britain’s split from the EU. Visiting Calais on Friday to inspect how the French port was adjusting post-Brexit, France’s minister for European Affairs, Clément Beaune, described the citizenship request as emblematic of broader British sentiment for Europe.

“It could happen to you” Superior teen raising awareness about human trafficking through fundraiser
| null | null |
wqow.com

SUPERIOR, WI (KBJR) -- January is Human Trafficking Awareness Month, and one Twin Ports teen is raising money and awareness about an issue that impacts every community.
16-year-old Mackenzie Cook wanted to make a difference for Human Trafficking Awareness Month.
The Superior teen is raising money to combat a big problem.
"It happens quite frequently, and there's a lot of it going on and it's not just in big cities, it's everywhere," said Cook.
Cook set up an online fundraiser.
Her goal is $3,000 by the end of January. The money will be donated to the Center Against Sexual and Domestic Abuse (CASDA) in Superior.
"It's honestly really inspiring," said Nicole Thole, Sexual Assault Program Coordinator at CASDA. "I would have never thought of this at 16."
Thole says this money is essential for many different things.
"Possible legal fees, deposit for first month's rent, car repairs, and things like that," she said.
According to Thole, there is no direct funding from Wisconsin supporting survivors of human trafficking, so donations like this go a long way.
"Being able to get money for that and knowing it's there for that specific purpose is great," said Thole.
Cook and her family hope this fundraiser is just the beginning to raise awareness in the community.
"It happens everywhere, every day, and it's not just to women and girls, but to men and to children. It could happen to you, and you'd never know it," said Cook.

Moon urges Biden to learn from Trump's N. Korea diplomacy
| null | null |

SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — South Korea’s president has urged the incoming Biden administration to build upon the achievements and learn from the failures of President Donald Trump’s diplomatic engagement with North Korea. Moon Jae-in lobbied hard to help set up Trump’s three summits with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, but the the diplomacy stalemated. North Korea has a history of staging weapons tests and other provocations to test new U.S. presidents, and Kim vowed to strengthen his nuclear weapons program in recent political speeches that were seen as aimed at pressuring the incoming Biden administration. The South Korean leader has been desperate to keep alive a positive atmosphere for dialogue. He claimed Kim still had a “clear willingness” to denuclearize.

"SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — South Korea’s president has urged the incoming Biden administration to build upon the achievements and learn from the failures of President Donald Trump’s diplomatic engagement with North Korea. Moon Jae-in lobbied hard to help set up Trump’s three summits with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, but the the diplomacy stalemated. North Korea has a history of staging weapons tests and other provocations to test new U.S. presidents, and Kim vowed to strengthen his nuclear weapons program in recent political speeches that were seen as aimed at pressuring the incoming Biden administration. The South Korean leader has been desperate to keep alive a positive atmosphere for dialogue. He claimed Kim still had a “clear willingness” to denuclearize.",

Democrats to 'act big' on $1.9T aid; GOP wants plan split

WASHINGTON (AP) — Democrats are rejecting a Republican pitch to split President Joe Biden’s $1.9 trillion COVID-19 rescue plan into smaller chunks. Democrats and the White House appear ready to leave their GOP opponents behind and push the sweeping economic and virus aid forward on their own. Despite Biden’s calls for unity, Democrats say the stubbornly high unemployment numbers and battered economy leave them unwilling to waste time courting Republican support or curbing the size of the package. The bill would offer money for vaccines, help reopen schools and give $1,400 direct payments to most Americans. Biden has been appealing directly to Republican and Democratic lawmakers while signaling his priority to press ahead.

Rep. Kind joins list of lawmakers calling for Trump's removal
| null | null |
wqow.com
|
(WQOW) - Rep. Ron Kind (D-Wisconsin) is joining many of his democratic colleagues in calling to remove President Trump from office.
Kind said Friday he believes the president poses multiple dangers to the country during his final days in office, and is calling for him to voluntarily step down, and have Vice President Mike Pence serve the remainder of the term.
Kind is also asking Pence to convene with Trump's cabinet, and seriously consider invoking the 25th Amendment, which would shift power to Pence.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and other lawmakers have put impeachment on the table, but Kind said he's concerned that option couldn't be done before Biden takes office.
"I'm a little worried, too, about the precedent that could be established by rushing to an impeachment formality in Congress without the due diligence, without the necessary hearings, without evidentiary fact gathering that should take place, because I'm not just thinking about today, I'm thinking about what future Congresses may do with the actions and steps that we take today," said Kind.
Kind added he hopes his republican colleagues will take initiative to remove Trump as well, or could potentially convince the president to step down on his own accord.

WASHINGTON (AP) - A woman who was shot inside the U.S. Capitol during the violent pro-Trump protest has died.
That's according to two officials familiar with the matter who spoke to The Associated Press on Wednesday on condition of anonymity because they weren't authorized to speak publicly.
The Metropolitan Police Department said it was taking the lead on the shooting investigation. Police did not immediately provide details about the circumstances of the shooting.
Dozens of supporters of President Donald Trump breached the security perimeter and entered the Capitol as Congress was meeting, expected to vote and affirm Joe Biden's presidential win. They were seen fighting with officers both inside the building and outside.
Hours later, police had declared the Capitol was secured.

MARYSVILLE, Ohio (AP) — A 95-year-old woman who became a prolific mask maker during the pandemic took a short break this fall while she recovered from COVID-19 herself. Miriam Looker is a resident in a nursing home in Marysville in central Ohio. She started making masks in the spring at the request of her stepson, a doctor who wanted his patients to wear them. Looker, a longtime quilter, got in the habit of making at least 10 a day. Looker took a month off when she came down with the coronavirus in November. Now she’s feeling like herself again and back to her mask production.

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) — A Republican state representative from North Dakota is apologizing for sending a video from the QAnon movement to all state lawmakers over the weekend. Rep. Terry Jones says he mistakenly thought it was a message from President Donald Trump. Jones, of New Town, tells The Bismarck Tribune he forwarded the compilation of Trump speeches and rallies because he “thought it was good information.” He planned on Monday to send out another video, but only to Republicans because he angered Democrats with the mass email. QAnon followers believe that the government is secretly controlled by a cabal of Satan-worshiping pedophile cannibals.

DANNEMORA, N.Y. (AP) — Brooklyn rapper Bobby Shmurda will be eligible for release from prison next month, the New York State Department of Corrections said on Monday. The New York Times reports that Shmurda, whose legal name is Ackquille Pollard, was sentenced to seven years after pleading guilty to conspiracy and weapons possession charges in connection to what prosecutors said was a leading role in the GS9 gang. Shmurda was denied parole in September, in part for disciplinary actions taken against him. However, a review by the Department of Corrections restored his credit for good behavior. Shmurda is eligible for conditional release as of Feb. 23.

TORONTO (AP) — The premier of Canada’s oil-rich province of Alberta wants U.S. President-elect Joe Biden to give the Canadian government a chance to make the case for the Keystone XL oil sands pipeline to be built. Alberta Premier Jason Kenney says he will seek legal damages if reports are true that Biden plans to scrap the pipeline on his first day as U.S. president. Biden’s plan is outlined in transition documents seen by Canadian media outlets. He has previously said he will cancel the pipeline. First proposed in 2008, the pipeline has become emblematic of the tensions between economic development and curbing fossil fuel emissions.

The winning numbers for Friday night's drawing were 4, 26, 42, 50 and 60, with a Mega Ball of 24. The ticket that won the third-largest lottery prize in U.S. history was sold at a Kroger store in the Detroit suburb of Novi. A spokeswoman for the grocery chain congratulated the winner for "waking up to life-changing news this morning."
The win came just two days after a ticket sold in Maryland matched all six numbers drawn and won a $731.1 million Powerball jackpot.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Democrats are discussing whether to move forward with impeaching President Donald Trump if his Cabinet doesn’t try to remove him for the mob assault on the U.S. Capitol. House Democrats are set to hold a caucus meeting Friday to discuss their options. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer are also calling for Trump’s Cabinet to invoke the 25th Amendment to the Constitution to force Trump from office before President-elect Joe Biden is inaugurated on Jan. 20. If that doesn’t happen, Pelosi says impeachment could begin. The House already impeached Trump in 2019, but the Republican-led Senate acquitted him in early 2020.

THE HAGUE, Netherlands (AP) — World leaders are converging — virtually — on the Netherlands for a summit that will seek to galvanize more action and funding to adapt the planet and vulnerable communities to the effects of climate change. The Netherlands-based Global Center on Adaptation last week called on governments and financers around the globe to include funding for adaptation projects in their COVID-19 recovery spending. Dutch Overseas Development Minister Sigrid Kaag got the ball rolling Monday by announcing that the summit’s host nation will pump 20 million euros ($24 million) into an adaptation fund for the world’s least-developed nations and 100 million euros ($121 million) into a program for sustainable farming in Africa’s Sahel region.

HELSINKI (AP) — Estonia’s new two-party coalition government has been sworn in with the first female prime minister in the Baltic country since it regained independence in 1991. The 15-member Cabinet of Prime Minister Kaja Kallas — a 43-year-old lawyer and a former European Parliament lawmaker – was approved Tuesday in the 101-seat Riigikogu legislature. The center-right Reform Party, chaired by Kallas, and the left-leaning Center Party, which are Estonia’s two biggest political parties, clinched a deal on Sunday to form a government. The previous government collapsed due to a corruption scandal.

NAIROBI, Kenya (AP) — Tanzania’s president says God has eliminated COVID-19 in his country. His own church now begs to differ. The local Catholic authority warned this week of a new wave of coronavirus infections, and government institutions now require staffers to take precautions. Suddenly, populist President John Magufuli is being openly questioned as the African continent sees a strong resurgence in cases. And yet he questions the COVID-19 vaccines that have begun arriving in Africa.

The local Catholic authority warned this week of a new wave of coronavirus infections, and government institutions now require staffers to take precautions.

WASHINGTON (WKOW) — For the second time, the U.S. Senate will begin an impeachment trial against Donald Trump.
Impeachment managers, led by the House clerk and acting House sergeant at arms, held a procession late Monday through National Statuary Hall and the Capitol Rotunda to the Senate to deliver the article of impeachment.
The procession traveled a route that less than three weeks ago had been overtaken by a mob set on disrupting the count of the Electoral College that would eventually confirm Joe Biden as the next president.
Lead manager, Rep. Jamie Raskin, read the article of impeachment on the Senate Floor.
Opening arguments on the charge of incitement of insurrection will begin the week of Feb. 8, according to Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer.

Navalny's arrest adds to tension between Russia and the West

MOSCOW (AP) — Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny’s arrest as he arrived in Moscow after recovering from his poisoning with a nerve agent has drawn widespread criticism from Western nations. Germany’s foreign minister on Monday called it “incomprehensible” and, along with others, called for his immediate release. Navalny was detained at passport control at Moscow’s Sheremetyevo airport after flying in Sunday evening from Berlin, where he was treated following the poisoning in August that he blames on the Kremlin. Navalny’s arrest adds another layer of tension to relations between Moscow and the West that have long been strained and were worsened by his poisoning.

TAIPEI, Taiwan (AP) — China says it is still in negotiation with the World Health Organization on the dates and itinerary for a visit by international experts looking into origins of COVID-19, after the head of the WHO criticized Beijing for not finalizing permissions for the mission. Foreign Ministry spokesperson says China’s position on the hunt for the origins of the pandemic has always been open and responsible. She says China’s disease experts are currently busy with multiple small-scale clusters and outbreaks reported in the past couple of weeks. WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said Tuesday he was disappointed at the lack of permission for the experts to travel to Wuhan, where the pandemic first appeared a year ago. He said some members had already departed their home countries.

The first Americans vaccinated against COVID-19 are getting their second dose while Britain is postponing boosters. Exactly how to give the shots varies by country, and debates over what’s best is adding to public confusion. Britain says it’s OK to wait longer between doses than vaccine studies showed. The U.S. is sticking with three to four weeks between doses. Supplies aren’t the only challenge, as the U.S. and other countries are facing logjams in using the scarce shots that already have been raced out.

VELIKA KLADUSA, Bosnia-Herzegovina (AP) — Temperatures have dropped way below zero in Bosnia where hundreds of migrants and refugees, including entire families, are sleeping rough while trying to reach Western Europe. A spell of extremely cold weather this week in the region has brought cold winds and freezing days and nights that threaten the safety of people stranded in northwest Bosnia, near the border with European Union member state Croatia. While authorities have improved conditions for some 900 people in a burned-out camp, hundreds more are staying in make-shift forest tents and abandoned houses in the area without heating or any facilities.

LAFAYETTE, La. (AP) — An attack on a gay Louisiana teenager is now being prosecuted as a hate crime. Police initially said they didn’t see evidence of a hate crime in the attack on Holden White, who spent days in a coma and nearly a month in the hospital. Chance Seneca pleaded not guilty to attempted murder after allegedly choking White with a cord and slicing open his wrists. Prosecutors added the hate crime charge last week. Seneca’s attorney said his client would also plead not guilty to the hate crime charge. The two teens met on Grindr, a dating app for gay, bisexual and transgender men.

NEW YORK (AP) — Americans cut back on spending in December for the third-straight month as a surge in virus cases kept people away from stores during the critical holiday shopping season. The Commerce Department said retail sales fell a seasonally adjusted 0.7% in December from the month before, a decline Wall Street analysts weren’t expecting. Sales also fell in October and November, even as retailers tried to get people shopping for Christmas gifts early by offering deals before Halloween. The unexpected decline underscores the economy’s troubles as the pandemic has worsened this winter. Employers shed jobs last month for the first time since April. And layoffs appear to be continuing, as the number of people seeking jobless benefits jumped last week to the highest level since August.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Inside the White House, President Joe Biden has presided over a focused launch of his administration. He’s used his first days in office to sharply break with Donald Trump. Biden has signed executive orders meant as a display of action to address the historic challenges he inherited. But outside the White House gates, there are signs everywhere that the coronavirus and economic crises loom as deep and intractable as ever. On Capitol Hill, Republicans are signaling their objections to many of his plans. Biden knows that what a president can do on his own is limited, so he’s calling for Congress to act while he’s being candid with Americans that dark days are ahead.

Governors in some states have called out the National Guard, declared states of emergency and closed their capitol buildings over concerns about potentially violent demonstrations. Though details remain murky, demonstrations are expected at state capitols beginning Sunday and leading up to President-elect Joe Biden’s inauguration on Wednesday. State officials are hoping to avoid the type of mob violence that occurred last week at the nation’s Capitol, which left five people dead, including a police officer. Some state legislatures also have canceled or limited their work next week because of security concerns.

Stay or go? After Trump-fueled riot, aides debate early exit

WASHINGTON (AP) — A steady stream of Trump administration officials are beating an early path to the exits as a protest against the deadly siege of the U.S. Capitol this week. But others wrestling with the stay-or-go question are concluding that they owe it to the public to see things through to the end. President Donald Trump’s behavior in a few harrowing hours this week was a line too far for several high-profile officials serving the president. But some of Trump’s critics don’t give those in the early-exit caucus much credit for walking away from their jobs with less than two weeks left in the administration, seeing it as little more than a face-saving effort.

They are led by the far right-friendly Parler, where sons Eric and Don Jr. already are active. Trump may launch his own platform. But that won’t happen overnight, and free speech experts anticipate growing pressure on all social media platforms to curb incendiary speech as Americans learn from Wednesday’s violent takeover of the U.S. Capitol by a Trump-incited mob. Parler has already had its wings clipped. Google removed it from its online store and Apple has threatened the same.

Eau Claire Police Department deploys first all-female patrol

EAU CLAIRE (WQOW) - The Eau Claire Police Department celebrated a new first this week, after deploying its first all-female patrol shift.
Officer Breanna Montgomery, who was part of Sunday's all-female shift said the scheduling wasn't intentional, but when the group arrived for their shift, they realized it was a first for the department.
It's been 100 years since the first woman served in the Eau Claire Police Department, but there are currently more female officers serving than any point in history. Anna Dewane was hired in 1921 as the first female officer in the department. Today, ten out of the department's 100 officers are women.
"Sometimes there's certain situations where people respond better to a female officer's presence," said Montgomery. "I'm glad that we have the number of female officers here that we do to be able to provide that for them."
Montgomery said it is statistically proven that women can have a better rapport with domestic violence and sexual assault victims.
"When I started law enforcement 14 years ago, there were not nearly as many females working," said Sgt. Bridget Coit, who also worked the all-female shift. "Seeing the growth we've had since I was hired here nine years ago has been amazing to watch."
Department officials said they are hiring, and hope to continue to diversify the department to better represent the community it serves, while inspiring the next generation of officers.

SYDNEY (AP) — Australia’s medical regulator has approved use of its first coronavirus vaccine, paving the way for inoculations to begin next month. Residents and workers at aged-care facilities, frontline healthcare workers and quarantine workers are being prioritized. Prime Minister Scott Morrison welcomed the provisional approval for the vaccine developed by Pfizer and BioNTech. Australia is aiming to complete inoculations by October. Elsewhere in the Asia-Pacific region, health officials in New Zealand say genome tests indicate the country’s most recent COVID-19 patient contracted the virus from another returning traveler just before leaving quarantine. They’re investigating how the breach happened.

President-elect Joe Biden says “science will always be at the forefront of my administration,” and he’s elevating the post of science adviser to Cabinet level, a White House first. Biden plans to introduce his team later Saturday. He says the scientists “will ensure everything we do is grounded in science, facts and the truth.” A pioneer in mapping the human genome — the “book of life” — is in line to be director of the Office of Science and Technology Policy and adviser on science. Biden also is retaining the director of the National Institutes of Health.

BEIRUT (AP) — As more Lebanese fall into poverty in the country’s economic crisis, increasing numbers are turning to the financial arm of the militant Hezbollah group for help. The Hezbollah-run organization known as al-Qard al-Hasan provides small, interest-free loans in dollars at a time when Lebanese are desperate for hard currency and commercial banks are not lending. The organization says it has seen a significant jump in clients in the past year. It’s a sign of how Iranian-backed Hezbollah entrenches its role among Lebanon’s Shiite Muslims even as the group comes under enormous criticism from Lebanese furious at their political leadership.

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — A Qatar Airways jetliner has landed in Saudi Arabia, completing the first direct flight from Doha to Riyadh since the kingdom’s boycott of the tiny, energy-rich state in 2017. The resumption of direct flights Monday came after regional heavyweight Saudi Arabia reopened its borders and airspace with Qatar last week, paving the way for a broader rapprochement. At an annual Gulf summit meeting in Al Ula, Saudi Arabia, representatives of the four boycotting countries signed a pledge to resolve the bitter dispute that has fragmented the Gulf and troubled America’s foreign policy in the region, including its efforts to isolate Iran.

BERLIN (AP) — Chancellor Angela Merkel is holding a virtual meeting with the governors of Germany’s 16 states to discuss the country’s pandemic measures amid concerns that new mutations of the coronavirus could trigger a fresh surge in cases. The country’s infection rate has stabilized in recent days, indicating that existing restrictions may have been effective in bringing down the numbers. However, surging infections Britain and Ireland, said to be caused by a more contagious variant of the virus, have experts worried that the mutation could also spread quickly in Germany if measures are not extended. New measures could include possible nightly curfews and a push to get more people working from home.

NAIROBI, Kenya (AP) — A senior Ethiopian military official has confirmed the presence of security forces from neighboring Eritrea in the deadly conflict in his country’s northern Tigray region. That contradicts the Ethiopian government’s denials. The United States last month said it believed Eritrean troops were active in Ethiopia and called it a “grave development.” People fleeing the Tigray region have alleged that Eritrean forces were involved in the fighting, even targeting and abducting Eritrean refugees from camps near the Eritrean border as well as scores of Tigray residents. The U.N. secretary-general has said Ethiopia’s Nobel Peace Prize-winning prime minister had “guaranteed” Eritrean forces had not entered Tigray.

The Latest: Republicans object to Arizona vote for Biden
| null | null |
wqow.com

WASHINGTON (AP) - Republicans from the House and Senate have objected to the counting of Arizona's electoral vote, forcing votes in both chambers on Joe Biden's victory in the state.
The objection was made by Arizona Rep. Paul Gosar and was signed by Texas Sen. Ted Cruz. Both are Republicans. The two chambers now have two hours to debate the challenge.
Biden won the state by more than 10,000 votes.
In all, eight lawsuits challenging Biden's Arizona win have failed, in part over a lack of evidence.
The state's Supreme Court on Wednesday upheld the dismissal of an election challenge because the plaintiff lacked the right to bring the suit in the first place. The woman wasn't a registered voter when she sued.
Arizona Secretary of State Katie Hobbs, a Democrat, has said there were no irregularities with the vote in her state.

SANTA CRUZ, Calif. (AP) — Months-old embers from a deadly California fire were blown back to life by powerful winds that raked the state and prompted safety blackouts to tens of thousands of people. Firefighters chased wind-driven blazes up and down the state on Tuesday, trees and trucks were toppled, Yosemite National Park was forced to close and two coronavirus vaccination centers were shut down. Southern California Edison shut off power to more than 58,000 homes and businesses in seven counties and was considering blacking out well over a quarter-million more. Pacific Gas & Electric cut power to more than 5,000 customers to prevent downed or damaged power lines from sparking blazes..

BOSTON (AP) — A U.S. judge has cleared the way for the extradition of an American father and son accused of sneaking former Nissan Motor Co. Chairman Carlos Ghosn out of Japan in a box. The U.S. State Department said in October that it had agreed to hand Michael Taylor and Peter Taylor over to Japan but U.S. District Judge Indira Talwani in Massachusetts put their extradition on hold after their lawyers filed an emergency petition. Talwani wrote in a ruling issued Thursday that the extradition could move forward. Lawyers for the men said in court papers that they plan to appeal to the Boston-based federal appeals court.

JAKARTA, Indonesia (AP) — Indonesia says it has detained the Iranian and Chinese crewmembers of two tankers that were seized for illegally transferring oil in Indonesian waters. A spokesperson for the Maritime Security Agency says documents from the vessels were also seized. He says the tankers are suspected of a variety of violations, including illegally transferring fuel at sea, spilling oil, not displaying national flags, covering the names on their hulls, shutting off their identification systems and anchoring illegally. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs says authorities are investigating the ships’ actions.

BEIJING (AP) — The former chairman of the main Chinese state bank behind Beijing’s initiative to build railways and ports across dozens of Asian countries has been sentenced to life in prison on corruption charges. A court announced Hu Huaibang was convicted of taking 85.5 million yuan ($13.2 million) in bribes between 2009 and 2019. It said he used his post to help others obtain jobs and loans. The China Development Bank is the main lender behind the Belt and Road Initiative to expand trade by building railways, highways, ports, airports, power plants. The BRI has prompted complaints some countries are left with debts they cannot repay. There was no indication Hu’s prosecution was connected to the BRI.

DURHAM, N.H. (AP) — It’s more like bumper-to-bumper than the usual shoulder-to-shoulder for members of the New Hampshire House, who are convening in their cars instead of the Statehouse. Since the pandemic began, the 400-member House has met indoors in an ice arena and outside on an athletic field. But after House Speaker Dick Hinch died of COVID-19 a week after being sworn in during the Dec. 2 outdoor gathering, Republican House leaders scheduled a drive-in movie style session to elect his replacement and adopt rules for the next two years. Democrats have unsuccessfully pushed for fully remote sessions.

MEXICO CITY (AP) — Mexico’s state-owned electrical power company has acknowledged it presented a falsified brush fire report to explain a widespread blackout in December. The Federal Electricity Commission has been criticized for being antiquated and polluting, and it has hotly denied the outage was the result of incompetence. It published a supposed report of a brush fire in an area beneath power pylons that its claimed caused the blackout. But the northern state of Tamaulipas maintained the document, purportedly issued by a state civil defense office, was forged. The Dec. 28 problem in the state-owned power company’s transmission lines caused a two-hour blackout that affected one-fourth of the country’s customers.

Georgia Democrat Raphael Warnock has won his Senate runoff election. Warnock, who served as pastor for the same Atlanta church where slain civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr. grew up and preached, becomes the first Black senator elected in Georgia. The Tuesday victory gives Democrats a chance to seize control of the Senate for the opening of Democrat Joe Biden’s presidency. Democrats need to win both of Georgia’s Senate runoff elections to claim the Senate majority. Warnock defeated Republican incumbent Sen. Kelly Loeffler, a former businesswoman who was appointed to the Senate less than a year ago and had the strong support of outgoing President Donald Trump.

UNITED NATIONS (AP) — The main opposition challenger in Belarus’ disputed presidential election is urging the United Nations to call for a halt to “violence and lawlessness” in the country including media censorship, internet shutdowns, the blocking of websites and cancellation of accreditation for journalists. Former Belarus presidential candidate Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya told an informal meeting of the U.N. Security Council on Media Freedom in Belarus Friday that since September the situation in Belarus “has only worsened,” and the media remain under assault from President Alexander Lukashenko’s regime. According to the Belarusian Association of Journalists, in 2020 independent journalists were detained over 470 times.

SAN DIEGO (AP) — Authorities have identified the woman who was fatally shot inside the U.S. Capitol as Ashli Babbitt. Family and her social media accounts say she was an Air Force veteran from San Diego and avid supporter of President Donald Trump and his efforts to stay in office. Police say she was part of a crowd that was breaking down the doors to a barricaded room where armed officers stood on the other side. The 35-year-old woman got married in 2019 and she and her husband run a pool company. Her husband says “she loved her country and she was doing what she thought was right to support her country.”

JERUSALEM (AP) — Ultra-Orthodox demonstrators have clashed with Israeli police in two major cities as authorities continue to struggle to enforce coronavirus restrictions in the country’s religious communities. The clashes occurred in Jerusalem and Ashdod as police attempted to close religious schools that had opened in violation of lockdown orders. Throughout the pandemic, many major ultra-Orthodox sects have flouted safety regulations. This has contributed to a disproportionate infection rate. The ultra-Orthodox community has accounted for over one-third of Israel’s coronavirus cases, despite making up just over 10% of the population. Sunday’s altercations were the latest violent clashes between police and ultra-Orthodox demonstrators in recent days.

Shares have risen in Asia after Wall Street rallied on expectations of more stimulus for the economy despite chaotic scenes in Washington when Trump supporters stormed the U.S. Capitol. Stocks jumped 2.1% in South Korea and 1.6% in Tokyo. U.S. futures also were higher. On Wednesday, the S&P 500 rose 0.6%, giving up much of an earlier rally, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average closed at a record high. Small-company stocks did especially well as investors ploughed money into businesses that would be winners if Democrats can pump even more financial stimulus into the economy after Republicans lose control of Congress. The yield on the 10-year Treasury topped 1% for the first time since March.

Three American Hockey League teams have opted out of playing this season because of the COVID-19 pandemic. That leaves the AHL with 28 teams this season. The league says the Charlotte Checkers, Milwaukee Admirals and Springfield Thunderbirds opted out and will return in 2021-22. Those teams are affiliates of the Florida Panthers, Nashville Predators and St. Louis Blues, respectively. The Blues say they’ve worked out an agreement to send players to Utica, which is the top farm team for the Vancouver Canucks. The Panthers and Predators haven’t said what they’ll do. Four other AHL teams will play their home games elsewhere this season. The AHL is planning to start its season on Feb. 5 with temporary realignment.

Wisconsin DNR resists starting wolf hunt immediately

MADISON, Wis. (AP) — The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources is pushing back against Republican legislators seeking to implement a wolf hunting season immediately.
The DNR held three wolf seasons from 2012 to 2014 before a federal judge placed Great Lakes wolves back on the endangered species list. Former President Donald Trump’s administration removed them from the list earlier this month.
The DNR is planning to hold a hunt in November, but a group of GOP legislators has demanded the agency launch the season immediately.
DNR Deputy Secretary Todd Ambs told the department’s policy board on Friday that the agency needs time to gather input and set quotas. He said no emergency exists and the board shouldn’t take any action.

Judge OKs Weinstein bankruptcy plan with $17M for victims
| null | null |
wqow.com

DOVER, Del. (AP) — A Delaware judge has approved a revised Weinstein Co. bankruptcy plan that provides about $35 million for creditors, with roughly half that amount going to women who’ve accused disgraced film mogul Harvey Weinstein of sexual misconduct. The judge approved the plan following a hearing Monday and overruled objections by attorneys representing four women. The settlement amount is $11.5 million less than under a previous bankruptcy plan.

"DOVER, Del. (AP) — A Delaware judge has approved a revised Weinstein Co. bankruptcy plan that provides about $35 million for creditors, with roughly half that amount going to women who’ve accused disgraced film mogul Harvey Weinstein of sexual misconduct. The judge approved the plan following a hearing Monday and overruled objections by attorneys representing four women. The settlement amount is $11.5 million less than under a previous bankruptcy plan. That plan was scrapped after a federal judge in New York refused to approve a proposed $19 million settlement between Weinstein and some of his accusers.",

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — Saudi Arabia says it intercepted an apparent missile or drone attack over its capital, Riyadh, amid the kingdom’s yearslong war against Yemen’s Houthi rebels. Social media users posted video of what appeared to be a strike in the air over Riyadh on Saturday. Saudi state TV quoted authorities in the kingdom acknowledging the interception. The Houthis did not immediately acknowledge launching a missile toward Riyadh. The Houthis have held Yemen’s capital, Sanaa, since September 2014. Saudi Arabia and its allies launched a war against them in March 2015 in support of Yemen’s internationally recognized government.

Israel's struggling Labor party chooses new leader

JERUSALEM (AP) — Israel’s Labor Party has chosen Merav Michaeli, a veteran lawmaker and former journalist, as its new leader ahead of March elections. Michaeli, 54, faces a difficult task as she tries to revive the fortunes of the iconic party. Labor guided Israel to independence in 1948 and led the country for its first three decades. But it has struggled to remain relevant over the past two decades as peacemaking with the Palestinians ground to a halt and the electorate embraced Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s hardline ideology. Opinion polls have forecast the party will not receive the minimum number of votes needed to enter the next parliament.

AL-ULA, Saudi Arabia (AP) — Kuwait’s foreign ministry says Saudi Arabia will lift a years-long embargo on Qatar, opening its airspace and land border in the first steps toward ending the Gulf crisis. The state-run Kuwait News Agency reported the announcement, saying Saudi Arabia would open its airspace, land and sea borders starting Monday evening. Kuwait has been mediating between Qatar and four Arab states that launched an embargo in mid-2017 over Qatar’s support for Islamist groups in the region and its warm ties with Iran. The decision comes after a final attempt at securing a breakthrough by the Trump administration, and as Saudi Arabia looks to secure warm ties with President-elect Joe Biden’s administration.

SOUTH BEND, Ind. (AP) — Former Wisconsin quarterback Jack Coan says he’s transferring to Notre Dame.
Coan posted a tweet Monday night that included the Notre Dame logo along with the message, “Extremely thankful for the opportunity. Let’s get to work!”
Wisconsin disclosed two weeks ago that Coan had entered the transfer portal. Notre Dame and Wisconsin are scheduled to face each other on Sept. 25 at Chicago’s Soldier Field.
Coan made 18 starts for Wisconsin from 2018-19 but injured his right foot in preseason practice this year and underwent surgery. Notre Dame’s 2021 roster was lacking a proven quarterback to replace Ian Book.

On Sunday, she posted tweets condemning Georgia election officials and expressing support for debunked theories claiming there was widespread fraud during the presidential election. The action comes as Twitter attempts to rein in harmful activity following the deadly insurrection at the U.S. Capitol.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Vice President-elect Kamala Harris will be sworn in by Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor.

A person familiar with the decision says Harris chose Sotomayor for the task. She’ll also use two Bibles for the swearing-in, one of which belonged to the first Black Supreme Court justice, Thurgood Marshall. Harris has expressed admiration for both Sotomayor and Marshall.

Slick spots possible this weekend as light precip continues and temps drop below freezing
| null | null |
wqow.com
|
Some spots in Western Wisconsin did pick up a couple of inches of snow Thursday night into Friday morning, and most locations that got more than two inches were south or west of Eau Claire.
The National Weather Service did receive a report of 2.4" from Augusta, but most places near and north/east of Eau Claire picked up between 1 and 2 inches of very heavy and slushy snow.
It has been drizzling for most of Friday as temperatures have been above freezing and holding steady in the low to mid 30s all day. That's why a lot of what's on radar has been green over the past couple of hours, but there hasn't been many reports of precip type.
That doesn't really matter that much as the precip has been light and the road temps have been above freezing. That caused the slushy accumulations to melt during the day. Most of Friday night will be near or slightly above freezing, so not much will change even as light shower chances continue as rain, snow, and/or a wintry mix.
The biggest concern won't really be the new precipitation or any snow, but the temperatures. They'll fall to near or just below freezing by tomorrow morning and only rise a couple of degrees by tomorrow afternoon.
Since the roads are wet and will continue to receive minimal amounts of moisture, expect some stretches to become slippery. This is most likely on side streets and rural roads, but any untreated surface will turn into a sheet of ice if/when road temperatures drop back to freezing.
That could happen Friday night, and will definitely happen Saturday night as flurry and light snow chances continue. Not much additional accumulation is likely, but again slushy and icy roads may be an issue for some.
Temperatures will slowly cool into next week, and while there are a couple of chances for light snow from time to time, nothing looks significant. Lows will dip down near 10 by mid week but even that's five degrees above average and highs will be near or above average for most of the days. Colder temperatures could arrive with more snow chances next weekend.

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — The Minnesota Department of Health has sued the owners of a bar in the southern Twin Cities metro area for operating as a food and beverage service without a license. The health department filed its lawsuit against Alibi Drinkery in Lakeville on Friday in Dakota County. It’s the latest in a series of regulatory actions taken against the bar, which kept operating in December and early January in defiance of Gov. Tim Walz’s order barring indoor dining at bars and restaurants to slow the spread of COVID-19. Alibi co-owner Lisa Monet Zarza was not at the eatery when The Associated Press called for comment Saturday.

The health department filed its lawsuit against Alibi Drinkery in Lakeville on Friday in Dakota County. It’s the latest in a series of regulatory actions taken against the bar, which kept operating in December and early January in defiance of Gov. Tim Walz’s order barring indoor dining at bars and restaurants to slow the spread of COVID-19. Alibi co-owner Lisa Monet Zarza was not at the eatery when The Associated Press called for comment Saturday.",

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Trump administration on has imposed new sanctions on Chinese officials over Beijing’s increasing assertiveness in the South China Sea. The penalties are yet another Trump administration move that may make President-elect Joe Biden’s diplomacy with China more difficult when he takes office next week. In the Trump administration’s waning days, it is putting in place travel bans on an unspecified number of Chinese officials and their families for what the U.S. says are violations of international standards regarding the freedom of navigation in those waters. The U.S. rejects virtually all of China’s maritime claims in the South China Sea, and those claims also are disputed by most of China’s smaller neighbors.
