It had been more than five years since Depeche Mode last performed in the Bay Area.And judging by the sizable pre-show buzz going on inside the SAP Center in San Jose on Saturday (March 25), fans may just have been counting down the days since the English electronic act had rolled through the same venue — as well as Oakland Arena — with its blockbuster Global Spirit Tour in October 2017.Fans were absolutely buzzing with excitement — like they weren’t just about to see a regular ol’ concert, but rather a “true event” — as they stood in long lines for band merchandise and joyfully greeted old high school and college friends in the concourse while they waited, for just a few moments more, to see Depeche Mode finally take the stage on its epic Memento Mori Tour.The sold-out San Jose date was just the second date of the band’s 19th concert tour, which had opened two days earlier at Golden 1 Center in Sacramento, and the group used the...

Barbara Lee and work as her campaign co-chair in the 2024 race for Feinstein’s seat.“I have concluded that despite a lot of enthusiasm from Bernie (Sanders) folks, the best place, the most exciting place, the action place, for me to serve as a progressive is in the House of Representatives,” Khanna said on the program, adding that “we need a strong anti-war senator, and she will play that role.”The move begins to crystalize a once-in-a-generation political battle to succeed Feinstein, who has announced her retirement after having served more than 30 years in the Senate.

Eyes on abstention as Cubans vote for National Assembly

Published Mon, 16 Dec 2024 16:59:53 GMT

HAVANA (AP) — Cubans voted Sunday in National Assembly elections with attention focused on voter turnout amid a deep economic and migratory crisis. With 470 candidates running for the legislature’s 470 seats, and no opposition challengers, the election’s outcome is a foregone conclusion. Voters essentially will do no more than endorse a slate of candidates vetted by Communist Party officials, critics say. What observers will be watching Sunday is whether a trend in declining voter participation continues as Cuba’s government struggles to turn around deteriorating economic conditions.Participation in elections in Cuba is high but has been on the decline for a decade. The National Electoral Commission said that for last November’s municipal elections about 31% of eligible voters abstained from voting, That translates to 69% participation, which is still high by international standards, but a substantial decline for Cuba where voting is not compulsory but traditionally was consid...

GLIDDEN, Iowa (WHO) -- In general, school lunch tends to not be thought of as fine dining. However, a new chef at Glidden Ralston School District in Iowa is changing that by providing special meals for students. Chef Chad Chaney, the new school chef at Glidden-Ralston Community School District, organizes and cooks for the students. "I do all the food service prep and ordering and just kind of make sure everything runs smooth. I have two great teammates that help out with that. Mostly I write the menu," Chaney said. Chef Chad said he still likes to provide the comforting foods that kids love, but also wants to expand their palate. How much does the average Costco shopper spend per visit? Costco reveals the answer "Staple things that kids like Crispitos, hot dogs, today [it was] chicken sandwiches, and then we like to do something slightly off the wall and healthy like the bacon wrapped quail," he said. "Next week we're going to do venison stew. The week after that we're doing salm...
