Together with an international team, Senckenberg scientist Uwe Fritz described a new species of mata mata turtle based on genetic analyses. Until now, it had been assumed that the genus Chelus only contained a single species. The new description also necessitates a reassessment of the conservation status of these species, which are frequently sold in the illegal animal trade. The study was recently published in the scientific journal Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution. | |

A Washington state superior court judge issued a temporary restraining order Wednesday against the Washington Department of Corrections (DOC) and myself to block the release of public records regarding the fatal September 3 shooting of Michael Forest Reinoehl by a law enforcement task force.
The judge granted a motion filed Tuesday by the Thurston County Sheriff's Office (TCSO) seeking to temporarily enjoin the Washington DOC from releasing records to me on Reinoehl, who was killed by a fugitive task force composed of U.S. marshals and several Washington law enforcement agencies, including the Washington DOC.
Reinoehl, a self-proclaimed anti-fascist, was charged with second-degree murder in the August 29 shooting death of Patriot Prayer supporter Aaron Danielson in Portland. Reinoehl had been wanted for five days when a federal fugitive task force caught up with him in Lacey, Washington. The circumstances surrounding Reinoehl's shooting remain unclear. Task force agents said Reinoehl either pointed a gun or was in the process of drawing a gun when he was shot. However, civilian eyewitnesses said the police didn't announce themselves before unleashing a barrage of gunfire that killed Reinoehl. None of the law enforcement officers in the task force were wearing body cameras. In the final weeks of the 2020 presidential campaign, President Donald Trump frequently bragged about the killing.

An Oval Office meeting with President Donald Trump that included Sidney Powell and her client Michael Flynn began as an impromptu gathering but quickly devolved, two people familiar with the matter said. CNN's Jeremy Diamond reports screaming matches broke out at certain points as some of Trump's aides pushed back on Powell and Flynn's suggestions. | |

Food Network host Guy Fieri worked to raise more than $21.5 million in seven weeks to help unemployed restaurant workers, prompting many to praise him for "doing more than Congress" to assist struggling hospitality employees during the pandemic.
The longtime TV host of Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives made personal pleas with large corporate sponsors, including PepsiCo, Uber Eats and Moët Hennessy USA, to support his Restaurant Employee Relief Fund. Fieri started the fund on March 27 as the COVID-19 pandemic was rapidly spreading through the U.S. and much of the world. The group has helped more than 43,000 restaurant workers "who have suffered financially due to the COVID-19 health and economic crisis," particularly through $500 grants to restaurant workers in every state.
Fieri and the relief fund were able to raise $21.5 million between March and August, a representative with The National Restaurant Association Educational Foundation told Newsweek Tuesday. | |

As you enter the mountainous village of Pera Melana in Greece’s southern Peloponnese peninsula, you’re likely to hear the roar of scooters zooming down narrow roads and the chirps of birds stealing ripe fruit from trees. But if you approach the village’s central cafe, you’ll hear a rather unusual sound. It’s the buzz of conversations among elders in a 3,000-year-old language called Tsakonika.
The speakers are the linguistic descendants of ancient Sparta, the iconic Greek city-state, and part of a rich cultural heritage and population called Tsakonian. | |

Pennsylvania tenants and homeowners missed out on roughly $108 million of $175 million in federal coronavirus relief because state programs distributing the funding made it too hard to access, Spotlight PA has found. The remaining money will be redistributed to the state’s Department of Corrections. | |
