In Chamonix, near Switzerland, if there are no people, the lift will go 10% slower. And if the resort receives a notification that the feeders can’t keep up with demand, Chamonix will slow down the lifts by 30%. Some ski resorts, including Chamonix and Val Thorens, have also pledged to limit artificial snow production and reduce indoor heating, officials said. In Val Thorens, maintenance and restaurant staff will have about 10 minutes – instead of an hour – to get to their workplace before the slopes open....

Dr Bob Hodges, a veteran of the frontline of primary care, had invited me to his practice in Gloucester to witness the more complex reality behind these headlines. Hodges is a large, genial man with an easy smile, one of nine partners in his Aspen practice near downtown and vice president of the local medical board representing the county’s general practitioners.

While the key breakthrough came in the Senate, where Democrats needed Republican backing to move the measure forward, a larger-than-expected group of House Republicans embraced it over the summer. Ultimately a smaller number supported its final passage on Thursday, and it passed by a vote of 258-169, with one voting “present.” Eight Republicans who had backed the legislation in July abandoned it on Thursday. Representatives Cliff Bentz of Oregon; Mario Diaz-Balart, Brian Mast and Maria Salazar of Florida; Dan Meuser and Scott Perry of Pennsylvania; and Jeff Van Drew of New Jersey switched their votes to “no....

C’est même la rivalité entre les deux voitures du constructeur japonais qui s’est intensifiée ces dernières années, la N.7 de Kamui Kobayashi, Mike Conway et José Maria Lopez mettant fin à des années de malchance en s’imposant en 2021. L’hypercar N.8, dont l’équipage a été modifié avec l’arrivée de Brendon Hartley il y a deux ans et de Ryo Hirakawa l’an dernier pour épauler Sébastien Buemi, a pris la pole jeudi et voit donc une opportunité de renouer avec le succès après le triplé de 2018....

92nd overall: New Zealand 330-4 (Mitchell 86, Blundell 73) Some rotten news for Stuart Broad this morning after a fire destroyed much of the pub he owns with Harry Gurney last night. Only one of the tops. Thanks to Brian Withington, “Phil Keegan’s contribution reminds me of the authentic old name-calling joke – one where two friends split up in a fun show and one yells complaining at the other from the top of the Helter Skelter....

Age UK has in the past shared the story of David, an 80-year-old man who unfortunately fell victim to a malicious scam. The retiree was living alone and a housemate contacted him from Blue, who charged him thousands for a job he did not need. Weeks later, he was contacted again by a builder, who said he had heard about David’s suffering from local police. He explained to David that he was there to fix the home repair problem....

The new $ 5 milestone, reported by the AAA Motor Club, means that gasoline prices in the US have risen by more than two-thirds in the past year and have more than doubled since Joe Biden took office. Rising energy prices have fueled a significant part of the continuing rise in inflation, which accelerated once again in May and is now running at the fastest annual rate since December 1981....

Long queues initially formed around the ticket offices, but police later moved people to the car park where emergency blankets were provided....
