ANKARA, Turkey (AP) — Turkey is voting Sunday in landmark parliamentary and presidential elections that are expected to be tightly contested and could be the biggest challenge President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has faced in his two decades in power.The vote will either grant the increasingly authoritarian Erdogan a new five-year term in office or set the NATO member country on what his opposition contender calls a more democratic path.Polling began at 8 a.m. (0500 GMT) and will close at 5 p.m. (1400 GMT). Media organizations are barred from reporting partial results until an embargo is lifted at 9 p.m. (1800 GMT). There are no exit polls.For the first time in his 20 years in office, opinion polls indicate that the populist Erdogan, 69, is entering a race trailing behind an opponent. Opinion surveys have given a slight lead to Kemal Kilicdaroglu, the 74-year-old leader of the center-left, pro-secular Republican People’s Party, or CHP, and the joint candidate of a united opposition allian...Minnesota Democrats plan to grow state government to historic size
Published Mon, 25 Nov 2024 06:06:54 GMT
The Minnesota Legislature is just days away from enacting a historic transformation of state government, adding $20 billion in spending to the next two-year budget to fund an unprecedented amount of new and expanded programs and services.That broad expansion will require hundreds, if not more than a thousand, new state employees as well as ongoing costs that will entail billions in new tax revenues to support it. The next state budget is expected to hit $72 billion, up 38 percent from the current $52 billion two-year spending plan that expires in June.Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party leaders have described their plans as a progressive vision for the future — a new “Minnesota Miracle” — that residents want. They plan to use the state’s $17.5 billion budget surplus to launch it.There’s a variety of new and expanded social programs including paid family leave, expanded access to government-backed health care as well as billions in new money for public schools and h...Horoscopes May 14, 2023: Cate Blanchett, connect with the right people

Published Mon, 25 Nov 2024 06:06:54 GMT
Dear Amy: I’m responding to the question from “Locked In,” whose bedroom surveillance camera caught housemates sneaking into the locked room.I am a landlord. In my jurisdiction (and probably many others) it is illegal to install a lock with a key on a bedroom door. It’s a fire hazard and can impede firefighters.So maybe the letter writer should hand off valuables to a trusted friend for safekeeping and then make plans to move ASAP, rather than add a deadbolt to the door.The whole thing sounds creepy.LandlordDear Landlord: Great point! I also agree about the creep factor.Looking into this topic, I stumbled across a ton of security camera footage of roommates sneaking into others’ rooms — sometimes taking things, and other times just … snooping.Dear Amy: Six years ago, I developed a difficult cancer with a life expectancy of three to six months.After many months of chemo, I received a donor bone marrow transplant from a specialty hospital where I was for several more months.
