TEL AVIV, Israel (AP) — Israeli soldiers battled Hamas fighters in the streets of southern Israel on Sunday and launched retaliation strikes that leveled buildings in Gaza, while in northern Israel a brief exchange of strikes with Lebanon's Hezbollah militant group raised fears of a broader conflict.There was still some fighting underway more than 24 hours after an unprecedented surprise attack from Gaza, in which Hamas militants, backed by a volley of thousands of rockets, broke through Israel's security barrier and rampaged through nearby communities. At least 600 people have reportedly been killed in Israel — a staggering toll on a scale the country has not experienced in decades — and more than 300 have been killed in Gaza.The militants also took captives back into the coastal Gaza enclave, including women, children and the elderly, whom they will likely try to trade for thousands of Palestinian prisoners held by Israel.The high death toll, multiple captives and slow r...These are the 7 'most offensive' behaviors that break airplane etiquette

(NEXSTAR) – Just how comfortable do you make yourself on a flight?Modern air travel can be hard enough – passengers have had to deal with a spike in ugly mid-flight incidents, additional charges for baggage and shrinking legroom.Then there are the unspoken (and sometimes clearly spelled out) etiquette rules that some passengers ignore. A survey by online travel engine Skyscanner found that there are seven behaviors in particular that most offend passengers.(File: Getty)7. Asking someone to switch seatsNearly a third of respondents agreed that asking someone to leave the seat they reserved on the flight and swap places is a no-no. It's not clear if this is situation-dependent for any of the respondents, but 31% of the 2,000 U.S. adults who were polled thought it was an offensive breach of flying etiquette.(File: Getty)6. Using both armrestsAn equal number of respondents found that fellow passengers who used both armrests were breaking an unspoken rule.

RIVERTON, Kan. (KSNF/KODE) — A good-looking, well-manicured lawn is what most homeowners strive for during the spring and summer months. But once the leaves begin to fall, most people can't wait to put the lawnmower away and take a much-needed break from cutting the grass. Now that fall is here and the temperatures begin to cool, when should you stop mowing the yard?Lawn care experts say the ideal time to stop mowing is when the grass stops growing. It's a general rule of thumb with which Alex Lambert, manager of Lambert Tractor and Machine Sales in Riverton, Kansas, agrees."Last year, we had a pretty bad drought, and that lasted through most of the summer. When we have years with very little rainfall during the peak summer months, the trees brown up quicker and the grass will also turn brown and stop growing. So the end of the mowing season came much sooner — I'm talking late July or early August," said Lambert.According to a recently published scientific case study on dr...FBI expert breaks down missing child case

ALBANY, N.Y. (NEWS10) — This week on Empire State Weekly, the entire state and the nation continue to react to the abduction of a 9-year-old from Saratoga County. After her safe return, some raised questions about how long it took for the initial amber alert to be sent out. Get the latest news, weather, sports and entertainment delivered right to your inbox! Jennifer Coffindaffer—a former FBI agent and current NewsNation contributor—explained that the amber alert was triggered some 15 hours after the child went missing. Though the case was resolved, Coffindaffer suggested that there are still lessons that parents can learn from it."There really is safety in numbers," Coffindaffer said. "I always teach that in my self-defense classes. If you can just be around others, you significantly reduce your likelihood of being abducted or being harmed."

ISLAMABAD (AP) — Powerful earthquakes killed at least 2,000 people in western Afghanistan, a Taliban government spokesman said Sunday. It’s one of the deadliest earthquakes to strike the country in two decades. The figures couldn't be independently verified, but if correct, the toll would eclipse that of an earthquake that hit eastern Afghanistan in June 2022, striking a rugged, mountainous region, flattening stone and mud-brick homes and killing at least 1,000 people.Saturday’s magnitude 6.3 earthquake hit a far more densely populated area, near Afghanistan’s fourth largest city, Herat. It was followed by strong aftershocks.The U.S. Geological Survey said the quake’s epicenter was about 40 kilometers (25 miles) northwest of Herat city. It was followed by three very strong aftershocks, measuring magnitude 6.3, 5.9 and 5.5, as well as lesser shocks.On Sunday, people attempted to dig out the dead and injured with their hands in Herat, clambering over rocks and debris.

Read the original article about the Cannabinoid CBL here.CBL doesn’t get as much love as CBD or delta-8 THC. Heck, even compared with other secondary hemp cannabinoids like CBG, it’s far more difficult to find any data on CBL. At this point, the only people who may know about CBL are already deeply immersed in the hemp or legal cannabis industry.While CBL may not be a significant force in today’s hemp market, it often appears in full-spectrum CBD oils. Customers with a keen interest in the many fascinating properties of hemp may want to take a closer look at the chemistry of CBL.What Do We Know About CBL?Interestingly, scientists first discovered cannabicyclol (CBL) in the mid-20th century. Although there’s little data on how CBL affects the endocannabinoid system, most researchers have a good sense of this cannabinoid’s chemical structure.Most significantly, data strongly suggests CBL forms after the cannabinoid CBC disintegrates. Short for cannabichromene, CBC is a rare cannabinoi...Latest news
