October 7 anniversary marked by wider war in Middle East
Commemorations for the October 7 attack began in Israel's Tel Aviv on Sunday at a ceremony to mark the first anniversary of the Hamas onslaught at the Nova music festival. More events are scheduled for today while Israel continues its relentless bombing. After a devastating year-long conflict in Gaza, Israel has shifted its focus to to Hezbollah in Lebanon. The anniversary comes with Israel relentlessly bombing Beirut and Hezbollah while preparing to retaliate against Tehran, raising fears of an even wider conflict.

US Latinas are outpacing non-Hispanics in economic growth
Latinas in the US are emerging as a powerful economic force, contributing a staggering $1.3 trillion to the nation's economy in 2021. This figure surpasses the entire economy of Florida and places Latina economic output behind only California, Texas, and New York. The 2024 Latina GDP Report underscores the growing impact of Latinas on the larger US economy. The rapid expansion outpaces the notable gains made by Hispanic males and is nearly three times faster than the growth of the Non-Hispanic GDP.
WHY EDUCATION IS THE SECRET TO LATINAS' SUCCESS

X pays $5M to wrong Brazilian bank in bad weekend for Musk
Elon Musk's social media company paid more than $5 million in fines to resume operations in Brazil but mistakenly deposited the money in the wrong bank. Lawyers for X asked Brazil's Supreme Court to allow its service to be restored, saying the company had paid fines but Brazil's Supreme Court refused the request, saying the money had to be transferred to the correct bank. To add insult to injury, Musk wigged out at a Donald Trump rally and had his mother make some bizarre comments about how to vote illegally.
WHY MUSK'S MOM HAD TO WALK BACK HER COMMENTS

Hurricane Milton forms amid Helene fallout

Tropical Storm Milton intensified into a Category 1 hurricane and was barreling toward Florida's Gulf Coast on Sunday as the devastating Hurricane Helene's death toll rose to 227. Forecasts show Hurricane Milton's most likely path would have it make landfall in the Tampa Bay area on Wednesday and remain a hurricane as it cuts across central Florida to the Atlantic Ocean. That would likely spare other southern states battered by Helene, but would again punish the Tampa Bay area. Milton was about 815 miles west-southwest of Tampa, with maximum sustained winds of 80 mph on Sunday afternoon.

WHEN, WHERE AND HOW STRONG IS MILTON'S FORECAST?

Harris, Trump stump with month till election

With less than one month left in a deadlocked US presidential election, Republican Donald Trump rallied at the site of his first assassination attempt in Butler, Pa., then headed to the swing state of Wisconsin on Sunday, while rival Kamala Harris visited North Carolina and kicked off a week-long media blitz. Polls have the two neck-and-neck, fueling a high-cost, high-intensity scramble for voters in the seven key battleground states that are likely to decide the outcome on Nov. 5.

WHERE TRUMP, HARRIS ARE FOCUSING DOWN THE STRETCH
