  • Protesters rally outside San Francisco immigration court to condemn ICE arrests
    (28 May 2025)
    RESTRICTION SUMMARY:
    ASSOCIATED PRESS
    San Francisco - 28 May 2025
    1. Crowd of protesters gather outside office building housing immigration court
    2. Speakers lead pro immigrant chants
    3. Various Abolish ICE protest signs
    +++SOUNDBITE PARTIALLY COVERED+++
    4. SOUNDBITE (English) Luis Angel Reyes Savalza, Immigration Attorney, San Francisco Public Defender's Office:
    "We're out here because of the appalling actions by the Department of Homeland Security and ICE, which has been terrorizing immigrants in immigration courts. These are immigrants who are showing up to their court hearings, who are show up to apply for asylum or different protections under the law. And Immigration and Customs Enforcement in Concord, in Sacramento, here in San Francisco, and the immigration courts are terrorizing immigrants to instill fear and to prevent immigrants from attending their court hearings. DHS attorneys in the immigration courts are also moving to dismiss proceedings so that ICE may arrest people and subject them to an expedited removal process without due process, without access to courts. This should be alarming to everyone in this country."
    5. Various protesters holding signs
    +++SOUNDBITE PARTIALLY COVERED+++
    6. SOUNDBITE (English) Luis Angel Reyes Savalza, Immigration Attorney, San Francisco Public Defender's Office:
    "I've been an immigration attorney for 10 years and I have never seen an ICE arrest in immigration court. It is something that's been looked down upon by immigration judges who know that this chills the attendance of clients in court, witnesses who then are afraid to come to court. These are rights that people have under the law, under the Constitution, that this president and this administration and ICE agents are trying to trample upon. And so we are here to stand in support of due process for everybody. And the most vulnerable community members in the immigrant community today."
    7. "Sanctuary for All" sign
    +++SOUNDBITE PARTIALLY COVERED+++
    8. SOUNDBITE (English) Sanika Mahajan, San Francisco Rapid Response Network:
    "We refuse to support this coordinated campaign of terror. We refuse to be intimidated. We will stand up and fight back and we'll be here to defend our immigrant communities and make sure they have access to due process day in and day out."
    9. Sanctuary sign
    STORYLINE:
    More than one hundred immigrant rights advocates and community members gathered outside San Francisco’s immigration court today to protest recent Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) operations conducted within court premises.
    Organized by a coalition of Northern California immigrant justice organizations, the demonstration was part of a coordinated action also held in Sacramento.
    Speakers at the rally condemned what they called “anti-immigrant terror tactics” by ICE and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), citing recent arrests inside immigration courts as a violation of due process.
    The protests come amid reports that ICE agents have been conducting targeted enforcement actions inside and around immigration court buildings, a practice critics argue deters immigrants from attending their legal proceedings.
    Organizers called on federal authorities to end courthouse arrests and uphold legal protections for noncitizens.
    No arrests or disruptions were reported during the peaceful demonstration.

  • Miley Cyrus debuts new album 'Something Beautiful' for fans in LA, with a proposal
    (28 May 2025)
    ASSOCIATED PRESS
    Los Angeles - 27 May 2025
    1. UPSOUND couple gets engaged at Miley Cyrus performance
    2. SOUNDBITE (English) Miley Cyrus, recording artist:
    "Because I've been experimenting with this album for the past year or two by having these nights at Chateau, they were invite only, super exclusive. Just my closest friends and my family. And this was the way that I kinda discovered the album. Because if it can't stand up just with me and Michael Pollock on the piano who I wrote these songs with - Rado on the guitar - and Maxx Morando on the drums. Then what are we even doing? Because for me, the music, I love making this production with Sean and everybody on this carpet. I don't do stages now. (Laugh) But yeah - so making the album and fully realizing it all and watching it kind of become this butterfly and have this metamorphosis and this evolution, it's so reflective of my life and everything that I'm experiencing. And I pour that into the production, but at the heart of this album, it's still been us really. I mean, it's been us three in a room making this album for the past couple of years. And so when I was on my endless summer vacation, bitches. (Applause) I was making the next album, okay? So next time you're spamming in the comments, just know, I'm busy in my bikini. OK so I was on vacation, busted. Not someone from Kauai actually knowing that I'm faking and I was literally on a vacation. But I was writing songs the entire time coming back and forth to LA and I mean really it helps when you're writing most of the songs with Max. And all of us are always together and me and Michael have written plenty of songs over text message."

  • En Japón, los gatos sin cola se consideran de buena suerte y Nagasaki está lleno de ellos
    (28 May 2025)
    ASSOCIATED PRESS
    Nagasaki, JapÓn - 21 de abril de 2025
    En Japón, los gatos sin cola son considerados de buena suerte, y en la ciudad de Nagasaki, se les ve por todos lados.
     
    Son conocidos como “omagari neko” (gatos de cola doblada) o “kagi neko” (gatos gancho),
    ASSOCIATED PRESS
    Nagasaki, JapÓn - 24 de abril de 2025
    y en Nagasaki existe una Sociedad de Gatos y un santuario sintoísta dedicado a ellos.
     
    SOUNDBITE (japonés): Kazuya Hideshima, Santuario Omagari Neko:
    "Omagari neko es un término para gatos cuyos huesos de la cola están genéticamente doblados. La forma varía”, explicó este hombre. “Pero se cree que todos traen felicidad y suerte”.
     
    En Nagasaki, los gatos tienen sus raíces en las Indias Orientales Holandesas, cuando la ciudad era el único puerto extranjero entre los siglos XVII y XIX, el periodo de aislamiento de Japón.
    ASSOCIATED PRESS
    Tokio, JapÓn - 22 de mayo de 2025
    Los gatos cazaban ratas en las embarcaciones procedentes del sudeste asiático, según funcionarios culturales de Nagasaki.
    SONIDO (japonés) Soshin Yamamoto, veterinario y especialista en gatos:
    "Al tener el único puerto abierto al mundo en Japón durante el periodo de aislamiento, los gatos entraban y salían del país, lo que provocó una mutación genética”, dijo este veterinario.
    ASSOCIATED PRESS
    Nagasaki, JapÓn - 24 de abril de 2025
    Los residentes de Nagasaki esperan que los gatos atraigan al turismo y ayuden a los negocios.
     
    SOUNDBITE (inglés): Cindy Bi, artista estadounidense afincada en la ciudad de Takeo, prefectura de Saga:
    "Hoy es la primera vez que oigo hablar de esto en Nagasaki”, dijo esta artista. “Estoy emocionada por buscarlos. Quizá veamos unos cuantos”.

No one should have to face this decision."

    STORYLINE:
    Get ready for several years of even more record-breaking heat that pushes Earth to more deadly, fiery and uncomfortable extremes, two of the world's top weather agencies forecast.
    There's an 80% chance the world will break another annual temperature record in the next five years, and it's even more probable that the world will again exceed the international temperature threshold set 10 years ago, according to a five-year forecast released Wednesday by the World Meteorological Organization and the U.K. Meteorological Office.
    And for the first time there’s a chance — albeit slight — that before the end of the decade, the world's annual temperature will shoot past the Paris climate accord goal of limiting warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius (2.7 degrees Fahrenheit) and hit a more alarming 2 degrees Celsius (3.6 degrees Fahrenheit) of heating since the mid-1800s, the two agencies said.
    The projections come from more than 200 forecasts using computer simulations run by 10 global centers of scientists.

    7. SOUNDBITE (English) Angelina Meng, Southwest Passenger:
    ++PARTIALLY COVERED++
    “That's a terrible thing because I always fly and I always love to fly Southwest and I think it's amazing because it's very comfortable they're in charge of all the bags and it's open seat and plus you know you get really good prices on the flights.”

    STORYLINE:
    Southwest Airlines began charging customers a fee to check bags on Wednesday, abandoning a decades-long practice that executives had described last fall as key to differentiating the budget carrier from its rivals.
    The airline announced the change in March, saying at the time that the the new policy would start with flights booked on Wednesday.
    Southwest said Tuesday that it will be charging $35 for a first checked bag and $45 for a second checked bag. Weight and size limits will apply for bags.
    Southwest had built years of advertising campaigns around its policy of letting passengers check up to two bags for free. Under its new policy, people who haven’t either reached the upper tiers of its Rapid Rewards loyalty program, bought a business class ticket or hold the airline’s credit card will have to pay for checked bags.
    Southwest will continue to offer two free checked bags to Rapid Rewards A-List preferred members and customers traveling on Business Select fares, and one free checked bag to A-List members and other select customers. Passengers with Rapid Rewards credit cards will receive a credit for one checked bag.
    People who don’t qualify for those categories will get charged to check bags. The airline said in March that it also would roll out a new, basic fare on its lowest priced tickets when the change takes effect.
    The airline estimated in September that charging bag fees would bring in about $1.5 billion a year but cost the airline $1.8 billion in lost business from customers who chose to fly Southwest because of its generous baggage allowance.
    Another policy that will take effect on Wednesday is Southwest requiring passengers to keep their portable chargers in plain sight while using them because of concerns about the growing number of lithium-ion battery fires.
    These aren’t the only changes at Southwest. The Dallas airline previously announced that it was leaving behind another Southwest tradition, the open-boarding system it has used for more than 50 years. Southwest expects to begin operating flights with passengers in assigned seats next year.
    The airline also said last year that it would charge customers extra for more legroom and offer red-eye flights.
    The airline announced in February that it was eliminating 1,750 jobs, or 15% of its corporate workforce, in the first major layoffs in the company’s 53-year history.
