A 17-shot fusillade from a shooter with a semiautomatic handgun sent two Israeli tourists to the hospital after an encounter Saturday night in Miami Beach, police said.
As for what ignited such a random attack on Pine Tree Drive, the arrest form details Mordechai Brafman giving detectives his account in the police interview room, where he “spontaneously stated that while he was driving his truck, he saw two Palestinians and shot and killed both.”
Brafman didn’t kill anybody, according to police. One person was shot in the left shoulder; the other grazed in their forearm. Law enforcement sources didn’t say whether or not the people shot were Palestinians, only that they’re visiting from Israel. | |

It was Thursday, eight days after the Texas Department of State Health Services first reported a measles outbreak on the rural, western edge of the state.
On Friday, the number of confirmed cases rose to 49, up from 24 earlier in the week, the state health department said. The majority of those cases are in Gaines County, which borders New Mexico.
Most cases are in school-age kids, and 13 have been hospitalized. All are unvaccinated against measles, which is one of the most contagious viruses in the world. | |

These benefits, the authors say, could be realized at a fraction of the cost of implementing technologies that remove carbon dioxide (CO2) from the air and capture it from stationary emitters like industrial smokestacks. | |

Or maybe these innovations did happen only once, but because they could have happened only once. For example, perhaps the first evolutionary lineage to achieve one of these innovations quickly outcompeted other similar organisms from other lineages for resources. Or maybe the first lineage changed the global environment so dramatically that other lineages lost the opportunity to evolve the same innovation. In other words, once the step occurred in one lineage, the chemical or ecological conditions were changed enough that other lineages could not develop in the same way. | |

The Trump administration has revoked more than $80 million in funds from New York City bank accounts after Elon Musk earlier this week threatened to claw back FEMA money he claimed the city used to house migrants in “luxury hotels,” prompting City Hall to raise the possibility of legal action.
The city received a payment of $80.5 million from the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s Shelter and Services Program on Feb. 4. But on Wednesday morning, city Comptroller Brad Lander discovered that FEMA abruptly canceled the disbursement, making the money disappear from the city’s coffers — a development Lander said he’d never before seen.
Liz Garcia, a spokeswoman for Mayor Adams, confirmed the allocation was gone and said Adams’ office has “requested an emergency meeting with FEMA to try and resolve the matter as quickly as possible.” | |
