(KRON) -- A Milpitas business owner pleaded guilty to conspiracy to solicit a bribe, the latest development in a bombshell case that led to former Santa Clara County Sheriff Laurie Smith’s resignation, prosecutors said Thursday.Gun shop owner Michael Nichols, 48, of Milpitas, will serve one year in county jail for his role in a gun permit scheme allegedly orchestrated under Smith's administration. According to prosecutors, members of the sheriff's office traded concealed carry weapon permits, also known as CCWs, in exchange for various donations, including some donations made to Smith’s re-election campaign.Nichols was an "important middleman in the scheme," prosecutors said.Smith, the sheriff for more than two decades, resigned last year. Days after she stepped down, Smith was found guilty in a civil trial that relied on the evidence compiled by the District Attorney's criminal probe. The DA’s Office said its investigation has resulted in four convictions so far, as well as Sm...Retail trade group: holiday sales expected to slow to 3% to 4%, compared with 5.4% growth a year ago

NEW YORK (AP) — The National Retail Federation, the nation’s largest retail trade group, expects shoppers will spend more this year than last year, but their spending pace will slow given all the economic uncertainty.The group forecast Thursday that U.S. holiday sales will rise 3% to 4% for November through December, compared with a 5.4% growth of a year ago. Sales for the two-month period will increase to between $957.3 billion and $966.6 billion, the group predicted. The pace is consistent with the average annual holiday increase of 3.6% from 2010 to pre-pandemic 2019. Americans ramped up spending during the pandemic, which accounted for some outsized sales numbers. For the holiday 2021 season, sales for the two-month period surged 12.7%.The forecast comes as shoppers keep spending, powered by sturdy hiring, low unemployment and healthy household finances. That’s despite still higher prices — though inflation has eased — and higher interest rates that make getting a mortgage...Giants not exactly facing the team they expected in the Raiders

LAS VEGAS (AP) — When the week began, the New York Giants thought they were preparing for a Josh McDaniels-coached team quarterbacked by Jimmy Garoppolo.But after a rough Monday night performance at Detroit on national TV, the Las Vegas Raiders fired McDaniels — and others — and benched Garoppolo.Antonio Pierce, who played for the Giants in 2005-09, will be the Raiders’ interim coach and rookie Aidan O’Connell the starting QB when the teams meet Sunday.“I’ve been on the other side of that, too,” New York coach Brian Daboll said. “You have to really focus on your team and getting prepared and watching all the games. You can only do so much.”The Giants (2-6) get back starting quarterback Daniel Jones and hope his return and a defense that has allowed 34 points over three games can lead the way to a victory over Las Vegas (3-5). That could be quite a challenge to a Raiders offense that hasn’t scored 20 points this season — Las Vegas scored 21 points against the New En...AES: Q3 Earnings Snapshot

HUIXTLA, México – La caravana de miles de migrantes que se ha estacionado en Huixtla, Chiapas, en el sur de México, realizó este jueves una manifestación pacífica, donde casi una decena de ellos se cosieron los labios como una medida de presión para pedir Fórmulas Migratorias Múltiples (FMM) al gobierno mexicano.Tres mujeres y seis hombres provenientes de Honduras, El Salvador y República Dominicana realizaron la protesta a manos de una enfermera de la Organización Madre Tierra, quien se encargó de suturar los labios de cada uno de los extranjeros que forman parte de este éxodo de personas migrantes.Rafael Cruz, migrante de Honduras, fue uno de los primeros extranjeros que accedió a coser sus labios de manera voluntaria en forma de sacrificio por todos los miles de migrantes que viajan en esta caravana y quienes estuvieron dos meses varados en Tapachula, pero ya se les terminó el dinero y se vieron obligados a salir en caravana.

(CNN) — El planeta va en camino a calentarse a un ritmo mucho más rápido de lo que los científicos habían pronosticado, lo que significa que en esta década se podría superar un umbral clave de calentamiento global, según un nuevo estudio del que es coautor James Hansen, el científico estadounidense ampliamente acreditado por haber sido el primero -en la década de 1980- en encender públicamente las alarmas sobre la crisis climática.En el artículo, publicado este jueves en la revista Oxford Open Climate Change, Hansen y más de una docena de científicos utilizan una combinación de datos paleoclimáticos -incluidos datos de núcleos de hielo polar y anillos de árboles-, modelos climáticos y datos de observación para concluir que la Tierra es mucho más sensible al cambio climático de lo que se creía hasta ahora.“Estamos en la fase inicial de una emergencia climática”, dice el informe, que advierte de que una oleada de calor “ya en marcha” elevará rápidamente l...Latest news
