PA election 2026: Your guide to voting on Nov. 3 - Spotlight PA

Fall brings drama to Stage 212 with “The Shark is Broken,” a seriocomic look at the making of “Jaws” by Ian Shaw and Joseph Nixon. “The Shark is Broken” will be presented Nov. 13-15 and 20-22 at the La Salle theater. “The Shark is Broken” takes a comedic deep dive into the tumultuous, murky waters of the making of a major motion picture with dueling co-stars, unpredictable weather and a shark prop whose constant breakdowns are looking like an omen for the future of the movie. Short tempers and short circuits of “Jaws” stars Robert Shaw, Richard Dreyfuss and Roy Scheider take center stage as they bond, argue, drink, gamble and pray for an end to the film shoot, not knowing it will change their lives forever. Appearing in the cast are Forrest Boes as Richard Dreyfuss, Joshua Bush as Roy Scheider and Jeff Sudakov as Robert Shaw. Production staff includes director Dave Roden, co-producers Amanda Hillstrom and Larry Kelsey, assistant director Jennifer Rexius, costume/prop coordinator Vicky Bickel, set builder Douglas Alleman, technical/artistic associate Lisa Gifford, light operator Yvette Lucas and sound operator Kyle Foley. Friday evening performances begin at 7:30 p.m.

In less than a week, voters will choose city councillors in 24 wards across Ottawa. Last election saw a lot of turnover as few incumbents sought re-election, opening the door for closely fought races. This time, there are 22 sitting councillors running again, with all the advantages that come with name recognition and campaign experience. Two wards won't see any race at all after no one stepped forward to challenge their incumbents. But that doesn't mean every incumbent is facing a cakewalk. Some wards are showing signs of competitive, well-funded or at least unpredictable races. Some had tight margins last time around. Others have high-profile challengers or incumbents who've been in the news for the wrong reasons. A few have outside political players or third-party groups entering the fray. These aren't the only races with credible challengers, but here are at least some of the wards we're watching for the 2026 election. Scroll down to learn more about the races in Kanata South, Knoxdale-Merivale, Kitchissippi, Rideau-Vanier, West Carleton-March, Orléans East-Cumberland and Stittsville.

The U. S. airman who died after a rapid fall while rappelling from the rafters of a stadium before a college football game in Texas was a 15-year service member from Georgia, according to the Air Force. U. S. Air Force Tech. Sgt. Ian Patterson died after being taken to a hospital following Saturday’s fall at the Alamodome in San Antonio, Nellis Air Force Base said in a statement.

The military says an investigation is underway. The demonstration was part of a pregame program for the crowd during the annual “Salute to Armed Forces and Veterans” game in San Antonio. “This tragedy is felt deeply across the 57th Wing,” U. S.
