Substantial regional fare, not syrupy like the national brands, the beans were always on the to-buy list whenever we returned to New York State. But after the pandemic, Grandma Brown’s shut down, and the iconic yellow, red, and brown cans disappeared from store shelves. So on the way home from dropping my daughter Grace off at college in Rochester in August, we swung by Grandma Brown’s headquarters in Mexico, New York, to see what’s what. Following the Supreme Court decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, which guaranteed the right to abortion, many liberal states and pro-choice organizations have been putting forth efforts to protect reproductive healthcare services. A California law that will take effect in 2024 will make vasectomies cheaper by allowing patients with private insurance plans to get the procedure at no additional cost other than what they pay for their monthly premiums. “It really pushed family planning to the forefront of people’s thoughts,” he said of the loss of abortion access.
Jailed in 2017 as a corruption scandal engulfed his Workers’ Party , he was released almost two years later after a judge annulled the charges. The far-right fears Brazil will lurch to the left under its new leader, becoming “the next Venezuela,” rife with corruption and economic crises. Mr. Walker rejects identity politics and criticizes his opponent’s focus on race, invoking Dr. King’s hope that people would come to be judged not by the color of their skin but by the content of their character. Critics say he’s allowing white Republicans to avoid grappling with racial injustice. Other Black voters, however, are scornful of what they see as a cynical ploy by the GOP to win their votes.

Miami, which hired Mario Cristobal to revive the glory days, went back a bit too far in the time machine and landed in an era when the forward pass was not a significant part of the game. With Adrian Martinez sidelined, K-State went with Will Howard, who completed 21-of-37 passes for 296 yards, four touchdowns and no picks. He’s the first K-State QB with 290 yards, four passing TD and no picks in a game since Jesse Ertz in 2017.
In my tortilla-making class in Belize, our group managed to produce a few dozen tortillas, which we promptly ate warm, topped with sliced hard-boiled eggs and freshly made salsa. We asked our teacher how many tortillas she made each day for her family. For people used to ripping open bags of mass-produced tortillas, that was a lot to process. But to our hostess, it was simply the only and best way. This process of soaking corn in alkalized water to break down the outer hull of the kernel is called nixtamalization. More Mexican chefs in the United States are reviving nixtamalization to make authentic corn tortillas, says Chef Gustavo Romero of Minneapolis.
Conservation efforts will benefit the endangered whooping crane and the threatened eastern black rail, as well as common bird and wetland species. Other options for youth hunters include attending a free Youth Mentor Hunt event (ages 12-15) or participating in the Next Steps Hunt Program, both sponsored by Pheasants Forever chapters throughout the state. People interested in hunting pen-raised birds in a more controlled environment are encouraged to visit one of state’s 48 Controlled Shooting Areas. CSAs are privately-owned areas for hunting upland gamebirds during an extended season. A zebra mussel is a highly invasive aquatic species that looks like a D-shaped clam, with alternating light and dark bands.
The runoff underscores the nation’s deep divisions, with Lula winning 50.9% of the vote to incumbent Jair Bolsonaro’s 49.1%. It’s a familiar criticism, going back to high school, when he did not stand in solidarity with his Black peers after the white principal made a racially charged comment toward a student, igniting protests. Warnock supporter Shayna Boston, a Black entrepreneur in Swainsboro, says Mr. Walker doesn’t even appear to be trying to reach out to the Black community there. “He’s talking to people that don’t look like us,” she says.
Most prominently, two women have accused Mr. Walker, who opposes abortion rights, of encouraging them to terminate pregnancies and paying for the procedure – charges he denies. As the senior pastor of the influential Ebenezer Baptist Church in Atlanta, where he returns every weekend, he casts politics in moral terms, as the proving ground for his work in the pulpit. In a nation grappling with past and present injustices, these candidates offer starkly different ideas about how best to address America’s inequities and divisions. That makes this face-off between two Black men, in a former Confederate state that recently became majority nonwhite, both historic and a potential harbinger.
It was apparent from the season’s opening notes that Ohio State was on a collision course with Michigan, eager to erase the misery of last year’s loss. But last season, Ohio State was all glitz and glamor and, underneath, had no real substance. Still, if there were questions about this Ohio State team, Saturday went a long way to answering them. UGA looked like a predator simply toying with its prey, dazing Florida with early haymakers, then allowing the Gators to think there may be a chance at escape before snapping the trap shut for good in the fourth quarter. Georgia is terrifying not because of how dominant it has appeared, but because it’s so good at hanging back, biding its time, never attacking until it feels threatened.
Months earlier, state senators also passed a law to make abortions cheaper by banning private insurance companies from charging for co-pays, deductibles and other costs.
