From northeastern Minnesota and St. Cloud to the Twin Cities suburbs, candidates are testing whether anger over fraud or frustration with Trump carries more weight.

The province of B. C. claims public confidence in the land registration system and the "essential work of reconciliation" is in peril. Meanwhile, the City of Richmond says the "property of thousands of Richmond's citizens" could be at risk in the event of catastrophic flooding. The Port of Vancouver claims port operations, leaseholders and businesses employing hundreds of people could face a "chaotic situation.

C.'s Court of Appeal earlier this month, in multiple bids to stay parts of the landmark B. C. Supreme Court Quw'utsun (Cowichan) Nation Aboriginal title decision before it comes into full effect in February 2027. Six of the parties appealing the ruling claim dire consequences could flow from Justice Barbara Young's decision — which they claim impacts dikes, private property, a port transporation hub and the right to fish in waters claimed by other First Nations.

A dead star could become far more massive than predicted by a famous limit in astrophysics. When a Sun-like star reaches the end of its life, it expels its outer layers. Its core can then become a white dwarf: an extremely dense star that retains a considerable mass within a volume comparable to that of Earth. Deprived of significant new nuclear reactions, this star gradually cools.

Editor's note: The FBI has posted a fuller version of its alert to California authorities, which includes that the information was unverified. The latest version of this story has been updated with the full statement. The FBI warned police departments in California in recent days that Iran could retaliate for American attacks by launching drones at the West Coast, according to an alert reviewed by ABC News. "We recently acquired unverified information that as of early February 2026, Iran allegedly aspired to conduct a surprise attack using Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) from an unidentified vessel off the coast of the United States homeland, specifically against unspecified targets in California, in the event the U. S. conducted strikes against Iran," according to the alert distributed at the end of February. "We have no additional information on the timing, method, target, or perpetrators of this alleged attack. "The warning came just as the Trump administration launched its ongoing assault against the Islamic Republic. Iran has been retaliating with drone strikes against targets throughout the Mideast.

France’s borrowing costs have surged amid the worst social unrest in the country in decades. Yields on French bonds have risen to their highest levels in nearly a quarter of a century as investors demand higher returns for taking on government debt.

the french designer brings his eccentric imagination to a historic building in montparnasse, filling its interiors with hand-painted frescoes, mythological references, bespoke furniture, and a swimming pool. Iñaki Laguardia October 20, 2026 6 min prefer designboom on googleVINCENT DARRÉ BRINGS FANTASY TO PARIS’ LE MAGNIFIQUE HOTELFrench designer Vincent Darré has brought his theatrical imagination to Hôtel Le Magnifique, a hotel on Rue de la Gaîté in Paris’ 14th arrondissement. Located in a neighborhood historically associated with theaters, cabarets, and the artistic life of Montparnasse, the project transforms hospitality into an immersive experience shaped by fantasy, mythology, and the performing arts. The building itself carries an unusual history, having originally housed Les Mille Colonnes, a renowned theater dating back to the early 19th century. Its historic façade now introduces a series of interiors where decorative elements, unexpected colors, and references to Parisian cultural heritage unfold throughout the hotel. The project was initiated in 2024 by hotelier Jacques Blanc, who envisioned a property that would depart from conventional hospitality design.

Warning - this report contains graphic contentA woman who says Russell Brand raped her at his home in London told police she "couldn't speak or breathe" during the alleged attack, a jury has heard. The 51-year-old entertainer is accused of raping the woman in 2009 after meeting her at London's Hammersmith Apollo, where he had been performing as a stand-up comedian. Brand faces seven charges in the trial in total - three counts of rape, three charges of sexual assault and one of indecent assault. The allegations, made by six female complainants, span a 10-year period between 1999 and 2009. He denies all the charges. In video evidence of her speaking to a police officer, the woman said she performed a sex act on Brand at the London theatre after being invited for drinks following the show. She said she gave him her phone number, explaining she was "a massive Russell Brand fan" and a "massive comedy fan" at the time. After that night, she said Brand messaged her and she went to his house in Hampstead knowing they would have sex. But she said a consensual encounter became rape when Brand started having anal sex with her and ignored her pleas for him to stop.

Bungie surprised players last month by announcing its intention to bring back Destiny 2 campaigns and other additions taken out of the game over the years. When that 'unvaulting' plan was initially announced, Bungie didn't share any specifics, nor a timeline as to when we can expect the things to return. Now, the developer is finally offering some hints. Bungie head of product, Josh Deane, revealed that Bungie is close to sharing a progress update. "I know there are a lot of questions on the how, what, when of unvaulting. Including any potential future updates to D2 and what's beyond for Destiny," Deane wrote on X in a post only recently spotted by The Game Post. "There's going to be a very intentional process for all of it that will take time. "

Godox has introduced the A2, an $84.90 magnetic accessory that attaches to an iPhone and fires a genuine xenon flash tube instead of relying on the phone's built-in LED. The Godox A2 iPhone xenon flash attaches magnetically, pairs over Bluetooth, and supports TTL auto exposure, manual power control, and high-speed sync up to 1/8,000 second, according to Godox's product page and Notebookcheck. There's a catch before anyone orders one. At launch, the A2 works with supported iPhones only, routing its camera-controlled flash functions through Godox's own app instead of Apple's native Camera app. Android and HarmonyOS support remains under development, with no release date, according to PhotographyTalk. The Verge highlighted the accessory as an unusual example of a true xenon flash designed for a modern smartphone. What makes the Godox A2 magnetic xenon flash different from your iPhone's LEDNearly every smartphone flash uses an LED, producing light differently from the short, intense pulse of a xenon flash.

The driver of the bus at the center of a deadly chain-reaction crash on Interstate 95 in Virginia has been charged with involuntary manslaughter, Virginia State Police said Saturday. Five people were killed and 44 others injured in the Friday crash. Jing S. Dong, 48, of Staten Island, New York, who suffered injuries and remains hospitalized, was charged with two counts of involuntary manslaughter, with additional charges pending, the state police said. "Even as the Virginia State Police continues to conduct a complex investigation, I have determined that probable cause presently exists to establish that the driver of the tour bus caused this crash and, at the time of the crash, he was driving in a criminally negligent manner," Stafford County Commonwealth's Attorney Eric Olsen said in a press release. Dong will be held without bond pending his appearance in Court, according to Olsen. The accident unfolded at about 2:35 a.m. Friday on I-95 south in Stafford County, about 45 miles south of Washington, D. C., the state police said.

100 Years Ago, 1926: Stables within the city are gradually disappearing and the ones left are few and far between. This fact was brought to light yesterday by a Times reporter who made a canvass of several wards in the lower section of the city before he found a place where a stranger could find a stall for his horse, if there are any strangers who own horses. Hundreds of small buildings that formerly housed the Dobbin families have been converted into garages and not a few have had a little more space added to them and are now listed as a cozy little home. It is estimated that there are less than 300 horses all told in the city as compared with nearly 2,000 automobiles, which explains why so many former stables now house the family flivver. 75 Years Ago, 1951: South Chester Methodist Church, Third and Jeffrey streets, will observe its 80th anniversary Sunday with special homecoming services, according to Rev. Ellsworth L. Jennings, pastor. During the winter of 1865, a number of persons, mostly members of Trinity Church, met at the home of William Gallow, Fifth Street and Central Avenue, and organized a Sunday school, with Gallow being elected superintendent.

Updated: Oct 20, 2026 10:50am UTCGod of War's Kratos almost went by a different name, but developers at Santa Monica Studio made too many Domino's pizza jokes. David Jaffe, the director of the original God of War trilogy, recently put out a video explaining the deep dish issue. Originally, Kratos was called “Dominus,” which Jaffe liked because it made him sound dominant and strong. Unfortunately, it also made him sound like a chain of pizza restaurants. “The people on the team started making Domino’s Pizza jokes,” Jaffe said. “Every single time someone said Dominus, someone inevitably would yell out, ‘30 minutes or free,’ or, ‘Get the door, it’s Dominus.’“After about the 50th time, the writing was on the wall. Dominus was dead and we needed a new name for our hero.” Someone at the studio printed out a big list of Ancient Greek baby names and Jaffe went through with a yellow highlighter marking the best ones. “The names that I highlighted were not great,” he said, pointing at Julius, Parthenius, and Maksym as examples. “Nothing felt just right. Eventually, our marketing lead, Susan Panico, was the one who came up with the name Kratos.

A United Conservative Party politician who promoted a petition pushing for a referendum on separation says he will not seek re-election. Red Deer-South MLA Jason Stephan said in a statement released Monday evening that he sought to “speak the truth as best as I understand it” because his “duty is to seek freedom and prosperity for Alberta.”Stephan, who served as parliamentary secretary for constitutional affairs in Premier Danielle Smith’s government, promoted a petition earlier this year that pushed for a referendum on separation. Albertans overwhelmingly rejected the idea of holding a formal referendum on separation Monday, with around 76 per cent voting to remain part of Canada. “Canada could be the most free and prosperous nation on earth, but it is not,” Stephan said in his statement, which cited Texas as having a larger gross domestic product than Canada.

General Motors Co.’s GM-N third-quarter results easily beat analyst expectations on the back of resolute shoppers who continue to spring for pricey pickups and SUVs. The company on Tuesday said quarterly earnings before interest and tax, not including one-time items (adjusted EBIT) rose 22 per cent from a year earlier, to US$4.1-billion. That amounted to US$3.70 per share, topping analyst expectations of US$3.63, according to LSEG data. The automaker said it expected to end 2026 with adjusted EBIT in the range of US$14.5-billion to US$15.5-billion, narrowed from previous guidance of US$14-billion to US$16-billion. The company said it remained confident despite inflationary pressures from higher logistics and energy costs, tariffs and other expenses. GM shares fell about 6 per cent in premarket ⁠trading. The company said its board approved a multiyear, US$20-billion stock ​buyback program. GM has bought back about US$29.5-billion of its own shares since 2023, driving down its overall share count to help its per-share profit results. GM in the third quarter sold ⁠a higher mix of large pickup trucks and fewer electric vehicles, which helped the bottom line.

Inside the Market’s roundup of some of today’s key analyst actionsNational Bank Financial analysts Dan Payne and Travis Wood think valuations remain “compelling” in Canada’s energy sector entering third-quarter earnings season, noting enterprise value-to-debt-adjusted cash flow multiples are trading 40 per cent under their levels to start the year “with equities pricing in an oil price closer to US$65-70 per barrel relative to spot of more than US$100/bbl.”“Despite a view that a structural shift is underway around global energy prices, equity buying has been somewhat agnostic heading into year-end with tail risk that prices collapse on headlines around a conclusion to war,” they added.
