Monster Wolf, bearing lifelike proportions and glowing red LED eyes, stands as a guardian against wildlife, sitting at the crossroads of technology and tradition. TOKYO -- Amid the tranquil landscapes of Japan, where the haunting howls of real wolves fell silent in the echoes of the past, an eerily familiar sound now resounds. "You're not getting away with this!" warns the synthetic wolf in a chilling human voice at 60 decibels. Its mechanical neck swivels, a movement akin to a living creature scanning its territory. A blend of tech and tradition, it's designed not to fool humans, yet terrify potential pests. An evolution in defense, Monster Wolf, bearing lifelike proportions and glowing red LED eyes, emerges as a testament to human ingenuity. It stands as a guardian at the crossroads of technology and tradition, confronting wildlife intrusions into human domains. Beyond its role as a 21st-century scarecrow, Monster Wolf stands as a symbol of adaptation in a world,...

A group of poultry producers, including the world’s largest, are asking a federal judge to dismiss his ruling that they polluted an Oklahoma watershed A group of poultry producers, including the world’s largest, have asked a federal judge to dismiss his ruling that they polluted an Oklahoma watershed . Arkansas-based Tyson Foods, Minnesota-based Cargill Inc. and the others say in a motion filed Thursday that evidence in the case is now more than 13 years old. “This case is constitutionally moot because the Court can no longer grant any effectual relief," the companies argued in a filing with U.S. District Judge Gregory Frizzell in Tulsa. The filing said Oklahoma conservation officials have noted a steady decline in pollution. It credited improved wastewater treatment plants, state laws requiring poultry-litter management plans and fewer poultry farms as a result of growing metropolitan areas in northwest Arkansas. A spokesperson for Oklahoma Attorney General Gentner Drummond d...

The U.N. General Assembly has scheduled a vote on a nonbinding resolution calling for a “humanitarian truce” in Gaza leading to a cessation of hostilities between Israel and Gaza’s Hamas rulers UNITED NATIONS -- The U.N. General Assembly scheduled a vote Friday on a nonbinding resolution calling for a “humanitarian truce” in Gaza leading to a cessation of hostilities between Israel and Gaza’s Hamas rulers. Jordan’s U.N. Ambassador Mahmoud Hmoud, speaking on behalf of the U.N.’s 22-nation Arab group, which drafted the resolution, called for an afternoon vote before all 112 speakers get to the assembly’s rostrum, because of the urgency of taking action. The Arab group is seeking action by the 193-member world body because of the failure of the more powerful 15-member Security Council to agree on a resolution after four attempts. Unlike the Security Council, there are no vetoes in the General Assembly so the resolution is certain to be adopted. While council resolutions are legally bindin...

Donald Trump’s fixer-turned-foe Michael Cohen faced off with him at the former president’s civil fraud trial NEW YORK -- In a courtroom showdown five years in the making, Donald Trump's fixer-turned-foe Michael Cohen testified Tuesday that he worked to boost the supposed value of the former president's assets to “whatever number Trump told us to." Trump's lawyers — and outside court, Trump himself — by turn sought to portray Cohen as a serial deceiver who pleaded guilty to crimes that include tax evasion and telling falsehoods to Congress and a bank. During a fractious cross-examination, Cohen, a disbarred attorney, even floated his own lawyerly objections, responding to some queries with “asked and answered!” It was a fraught face-to-face encounter between Trump and a man who once pledged to “take a bullet” for him. Cohen eventually ended up in prison and became a prominent witness against his former boss in venues from court houses to Congress. Now, Cohen is a key ...

There's new messages Chargers @ Chiefs LIVE Follow all of the  Week 7 scores live on  AS USA .  Jennifer Bubel Posted at: 15:16 EDT 22/10/2023 The man himself... Jennifer Bubel Posted at: 15:21 EDT 22/10/2023 Who will cover Kelce? Chargers safety Derwin James is usually the guy to cover the Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce. Although he is not on the inactives list, he did hurt his ankle in practice on Thursday and had been listed as questionable leading up to the game. If he’s not at 100% (which it’s likely he’s not), then the Chargers are likely to lean on Michael Davis and/or Dean Marlowe, neither of whom are as favorable as James would be . The Chargers five up 4.66 more yards per route to Kelce when James isn’t on the field , according to TruMedia Sports.

A lesser-known group of attorneys, activists warned government for years. Four years before Lehman Brothers collapsed and set off the worst U.S. financial disaster since the Great Depression, Ruhi Maker warned top officials at the Federal Reserve that the nation's housing bubble could wreak "enormous" economic damage. Maker, a housing attorney in Rochester, New York, told Fed officials that a flood of faulty home loans could imperil the soundness of major investment banks, even naming Lehman Brothers, according to a transcript of the meeting. The testimony drew on experience at the frontlines of a foreclosure crisis fueled by subprime loans thrust upon borrowers who couldn't afford them, Maker told ABC News. "I remember one woman, a widow, sitting across from me and crying. She said she was so happy her husband had died, so he couldn't see what a mess she had made of the house," Maker said. This fall marks the 15th anniversary of the onset of the 2008 ...

Meta and TikTok have been given a week by the European Commission to provide details on measures taken to counter the spread of terrorist, violent content and hate speech on their platforms, a week after Elon Musk's X was told to do the same. The European Union's executive body said on Thursday it had sent a request for the information to the two companies as researchers point to the proliferation of disinformation following Hamas' attack against Israel more than a week ago. The Commission can open investigations into the companies if it is not satisfied with their responses. Under new online content rules known as the Digital Services Act (DSA) that came into force recently, major online platforms are required to do more to take down illegal and harmful content or risk fines as much as 6% of their global turnover. "Meta must provide the requested information to the Commission by 25 October 2023 for questions related to the crisis response and by 8 November 2...

Virginia Republicans could see an influx of cash from top donors following Gov. Glenn Youngkin's two-day retreat ahead of the state's No. 7 legislative elections Virginia Republicans could see an influx of cash from top donors following Gov. Glenn Youngkin's two-day retreat ahead of the state's high-stakes legislative elections next month. The "Red Vest Retreat," named after the fleece Youngkin wore during his 2021 campaign, was held on Tuesday and Wednesday. It's the latest example of how high the stakes are seen as for Youngkin, as he eyes total GOP control of the General Assembly. "When you consider the timing, it appears to me like Gov. Youngkin is all-in on getting a unified Republican legislature and installing as much of his agenda in as he can in the last two years of this term," said Dr. Chapman Rackaway, a professor and chair of political science at Radford University. While Youngkin has been eyed by some prominent donor s as a pote...
