NEW YORK (AP) — The U.S. government shutdown has rattled air travel — most recently with an unprecedented effort from the Federal Aviation Administration to cut flights by 10% at airports nationwide. And the disruptions are causing some to instead hit the road or buy a train ticket.That could mean more business for car rentals, long-haul buses and commuter rails like Amtrak — particularly if flight delays and cancellations continue piling up as the U.S. approaches Thanksgiving and other peak holiday travel.Amid the latest scramble, Hertz is already reporting a sharp increase in one-way car rentals. One-way reservations have spiked…
BOGOTA, Colombia (AP) — Colombian photographer Édgar Jiménez walks around a room exhibiting “Adam and Eve,” his portrait of two of the first hippopotamuses that were brought to Colombia by late drug kingpin Pablo Escobar in the 1980s.Jiménez, who once served as Escobar’s personal photographer, recalls taking the picture from only four meters (13 feet) away, without any kind of protection and unaware of the danger they posed. That same pair of hippos later attacked and killed a camel.“The hippos were bought from a zoo in the United States that buys and captures animals from Africa,” recalls the 75-year-old photographer,…

Before representing Mexico on the international level, Christina Burkenroad had a childhood she called ‘chaotic’ in San Diego. Omar Vega/Getty ImagesWhile taking part in a pickup soccer game underneath San Diego’s Coronado Bridge in Barrio Logan, the last person I expected to show up was Christina Burkenroad.On a summer break after her European season in 2019, and months before becoming one of the most recognizable names in Mexican women’s soccer, the forward didn’t step into the session as an ego-filled celebrity, but instead as just another local on the rugged concrete floor.I knew she had UEFA Women’s Champions League minutes. I…

And then there was everything else, too.Liverpool lost Trent Alexander-Arnold, perhaps the greatest passer of the ball to ever walk the Earth, to Real…
One of the enduring images from Liverpool’s statement 2-0 win at Man City in February was of Dominik Szoboszlai collapsing to his knees in exhaustion at the full-time whistle.The midfielder, who returns to the Etihad with the champions on Super Sunday, had just turned in a virtuoso, lung-busting display – no Liverpool player covered more than his 11.54km that afternoon – creating Mohamed Salah’s opener after a cleverly-worked short-corner routine, before doubling the visitors’ lead with a cool finish from his more advanced role. Head coach Arne Slot changed his formation to “play with two No 10s”, one of who…
The Scottish FA’s Key Match Incident Panel (KMI) believe that Celtic’s Auston Trusty should have been sent off following his clash with Rangers goalkeeper Jack Butland in Sunday’s League Cup semi-final.Celtic defender Trusty’s boot caught Butland in the head and he was booked by referee Nick Walsh at Hampden Park. However, the KMI panel, by a majority of two to one, said the VAR was wrong to not intervene and should have recommended an on-field review, where a red card should have been awarded.The panel did, however, by a unanimous majority, say the decisions to disallow Nicolas Raskin’s own goal…
When President Donald Trump hit Rosneft and Lukoil, Russia’s two largest oil companies, with sweeping sanctions on October 22, the message to Moscow was unmistakable: Washington was turning up the heat. But the shockwaves reached far beyond Russia — landing squarely in New Delhi, one of Russia’s biggest oil customers and a key US partner in Asia. Since the Ukraine war began, India has quietly emerged as one of Moscow’s biggest oil lifelines. Its imports of Russian crude have soared from under 100,000 barrels per day (bpd) in early 2022 to nearly 1.8 million bpd this year— a 17-fold surge.…
