NEW ORLEANS (AP) — President Joe Biden’s order that federal employees get vaccinated against COVID-19 was blocked Thursday by a federal appeals court. The 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in New Orleans rejected arguments that Biden, as the nation’s chief executive, has the same authority as the CEO of a private corporation to require that employees be vaccinated. The ruling from the full appeals court, 16 full-time judges at the time the case was argued, reversed an earlier ruling by a three-j

PARIS (AP) — More than 1 million people demonstrated across France on Thursday against unpopular pension reforms, and violence erupted in some places as unions called for new nationwide strikes and protests next week, coinciding with King Charles III's planned visit to France.

Polls say most French oppose Pre
A warehouse worker recorded the moment a rare powerful tornado ripped through an industrial area in Montebello, California, on Wednesday, March 22.Video recorded by Santos Bil Munoz shows debris swirling in the sky as the tornado moves toward the area. “Close it, close it!” Munoz’ colleague is heard saying, as a crowd moves away from a roller door.“We approached [the dock roller door] to see what was happening and started to feel the wind come through,” Munoz told Storyful. “Our cardboard boxes were flapping around so one of our the employees started to close the dock and we ran to the back of the warehouse.”In a second video recorded by Munoz, he and his colleagues assess the damage outside of their work.“We waited maybe 15 minutes before coming out. When we came out it was a total shock to see all the cars on our lot scratched and covered in dirt,” he said. “Some of them [had their] windows shattered or cracked. Directly across the street where the tornado went through almost every car had its windows broken.”The National Weather Service (NWS) said the tornado was the strongest to hit the Los Angeles metro area in 39 years.Local media reported on Thursday that one person was reported injured and that 11 business were deemed unfit for entry.

A U.S. judge on Thursday denied Archegos Capital Management LP founder Bill Hwang's effort to dismiss an indictment accusing him of fraud in the collapse of his once-$36 billion firm. U.S. District Judge Alvin Hellerstein in Manhattan rejected arguments that the 11-count indictment should be tossed because prosecutors deceived Hwang into cooperating with their probe and because Hwang's trading activity had been lawful. Hwang said federal prosecutors, long before his arrest last April, had viewed him as the mastermind of a vast market manipulation scheme, and induced him during several interviews and meetings over six months to divulge his defense strategy.
Alabama coach Nate Oats said Thursday he was not offended by comments Nick Saban made regarding Saban's handling of a football player's arrest in contrast to how the top-ranked Crimson Tide have dealt with the controversy surrounding All-American freshman Brandon Miller. In handing down the punishment, Saban said, “everybody’s got an opportunity to make choices and decisions." The “no such thing as being in the wrong place at the wrong time” comment was perceived by many to be directed at Oats, the Alabama basketball coach who hasn't disciplined Miller for being at the scene of a Jan. 15 fatal shooting involving a former teammate in Tuscaloosa, Alabama.

EDMONTON — Alberta's Court of Appeal heard arguments Thursday that a former Ontario truck driver should be tried for a third time in the 2011 death of an Indigenous woman. Bradley Barton, 55, was sentenced to 12 1/2 years for manslaughter in the death of Cindy Gladue, a Métis and Cree woman who bled to death in a bathtub at the Yellowhead Inn in Edmonton.

The Alberta government and Stollery Children's Hospital Foundation are collectively pitching in $6 million to continue planning a standalone facility in Edmonton. Officials still don't know where the hospital will be, how much it will cost and when construction will begin. Health Minister Jason Copping said the province's $1-million commitment per year for the next three years is a "placeholder" until further planning reveals a projected cost to build the hospital. "Our government's view is that
