LOS ANGELES (AP) — The next ballot for the World Golf Hall of Fame will include three players born in 1980, all major champions with remarkably similar records in global golf. One of them is Sergio Garcia, who suspects he will be looked upon differently from Adam Scott and Justin Rose.Garcia was asked who among those three would be considered the leading candidate to be elected for the 2026 class of inductees.“I went to LIV, so I’m probably a little behind,” Garcia said with a laugh. “Even though things are settling down.”He thought for a few minutes about the trio and settled on Scott before adding, “If I didn’t go to LIV and everything that happened, probably me.”That’s hard to dispute, and a case could be made for each.Garcia has 31 wins around the world, including the 2017 Masters in a playoff over Rose and The Players Championship. He also holds the Ryder Cup record for most points at 28.5, going 3-1 in the last Ryder Cup — his final Ryder Cup — at Whistling S...Iran says 10 dead after consuming tainted booze at party

TEHRAN, Iran (AP) — Ten people died after drinking home-made liquor made with methanol at a party, Iranian state media reported Tuesday, as the number of such deaths increases in the Islamic Republic.Dozens of people were reportedly hospitalized last week after drinking the tainted booze at a party in Alborz province, some 40 kilometers (25 miles) west of the capital Tehran, the IRNA news agency reported.Besides the fatalities, more than 140 partygoers were sickened, including four who were in critical condition, officials said.Since 1979, when Iran banned the production and consumption of alcoholic beverages, methanol is often added to home-made brews as a cheaper alternative to ethanol, the alcohol that can be consumed. Drinking alcohol is punishable by a cash fine and lashes.Iran’s 40 alcohol factories converted production to pharmaceutical needs and sanitizers. Abbas Masjedi, the head of the country’s forensic medicine agency, said 644 people died from drinking tainted booze in ...Cummins smashes 44 to lead Australia to 2-wicket win over England in Ashes classic at Edgbaston

BIRMINGHAM, England (AP) — Australia won a thrilling Ashes opener by two wickets at Edgbaston on Tuesday as captain Pat Cummins’ six-smashing 44 not out and Usman Khawaja’s patient 65 combined to give England’s “Bazball” cricket revolution a lesson from Down Under.Cummins hit two sixes and four fours, and he shared a match-winning ninth-wicket partnership of 55 with Nathan Lyon (16 not out) in the last hour of the final day. Chasing 281 to win, Cummins hit the winning boundary against Ollie Robinson and Australia finished on 282-8 to disappoint a raucous crowd that sensed another memorable victory at the Birmingham ground after a two-run win in the second Ashes test in 2005.Khawaja, who hit his first test century in England in the first innings, faced 197 deliveries as he anchored most of Australia’s successful run chase before being dismissed by England captain Ben Stokes.___More AP cricket: https://apnews.com/hub/cricket and https://twitter.com/AP_SportsSourceYoung plaintiffs’ attorney closes Montana climate change trial with call for action

HELENA, Mont. (AP) — An attorney for 16 young plaintiffs urged a judge Tuesday to strike down as unconstitutional a Montana law that prohibits state agencies from considering the environmental effects when it weighs permits allowing the release of greenhouse gases.Attorney Nate Bellinger made the plea in his closing argument at the end of a seven-day trial. Plaintiffs say state officials violated their right to a clean and healthful environment, part of the Montana Constitution, by allowing companies to build power plants and expand coal mines, among other things.“Like other monumental constitutional cases before, the state of Montana comes before this court because of a pervasive systemic infringement of rights,” Bellinger said. During the trial, plaintiffs testified about how increased heat, smoke from wildfires and drought affect their activities and mental health.

Published Mon, 23 Dec 2024 18:09:21 GMT
(CNN) — Rivian, the electric truck and SUV company backed by Amazon, announced on Tuesday that it will join Ford and General Motors in adopting Tesla’s so-called North American Charging Standard (NACS).Rivian said it will start building its R1T pickup and R1S SUV with NACS-style charging ports starting in 2025. Its upcoming smaller models will also have the Tesla-style charging ports.By spring, 2024, Rivian owners will be able to use adapters to access Tesla’s, Supercharger network, with its roughly 12,000 fast charging stations throughout the US and Canada. While Rivian isn’t nearly as large of an automaker as GM or Ford, it’s reasonably popular among EV buyers, so the move marks a significant step for broader acceptance of the Tesla standard.Tesla’s charging system had been proprietary and only usable by Teslas, although Teslas could use industry standard Combined Charging System (CCS) chargers with an adapter.
