How did Cash App founder Bob Lee and stabbing suspect Nima Momeni know each other?

SAN FRANCISCO - As Nima Momeni is set to appear in San Francisco Superior Court on Friday to face a murder charge, the wider public is asking: How did he know Cash App founder Bob Lee? And why would he allegedly stab him to death earlier this month? At a news conference Thursday, San Francisco Police Chief Bill Scott would only say that the two knew each other.But he did not say how."I can't say anything at this point," Scott told KTVU. In a brief interview by phone in Miami, Lee's former wife, Krista Lee, told KTVU that the name sounded familiar and she believes she had met Momeni's sister, but she didn't give out too many details. And she said she simply had no idea as why Momeni, 38, who owned his own IT company in Emeryville, would be charged with violently attacking her former husband, 43, with a knife at 2:30 a.m. on April 4.

North Korea says it tested new solid-fuel long-range missile for first time

SEOUL, South Korea - North Korea said Friday it flight-tested a solid-fuel intercontinental ballistic missile for the first time, a possible breakthrough in its efforts to acquire a more powerful, harder-to-detect weapon targeting the continental United States.North Korea’s official Korean Central News Agency issued the report a day after the country’s neighbors detected a launch of a long-range missile from near Pyongyang, which extended a run of weapons displays involving more than 100 missiles fired into the sea since the start of 2022.Thursday’s test did not appear to demonstrate the weapon’s full capacity, and it remains unclear how far North Korea has come in mastering technologies to ensure the warhead would withstand atmospheric reentry and accurately strike targets. Still, analysts said the test was likely a meaningful advance in North Korea’s goal to build a nuclear arsenal that could directly threaten the United States.Later Friday, the U.S.

You can check for upcoming mass layoffs near you – here’s how

Facebook, Twitter and McDonald’s announcing recent layoffs – many employees may be curious if their company is next. And, a decades-old labor law, called the WARN Act, could give workers a heads-up about impending layoffs. "I have companies calling me up asking about WARN, because they’re thinking about laying some people off," Gary Lafayette, an employment and labor attorney with Lafayette & Kumagai, told FOX Television Stations Tuesday. "It’s important for them to know what the rules are." Passed by Congress in 1988, the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act (WARN Act) helps ensure advance notice in cases of qualified plant closings and mass layoffs, according to the U.S.

'Nothing is impossible': 4-year-old becomes world’s youngest author

(Guinness World Records )A 4-year-old boy from Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, has become the world’s youngest published author, according to the Guinness Book of World Records. Saeed Rashed AlMheiri has sold over 1,000 copies of his children’s book, "The Elephant Saeed and the Bear," which tells a tale teaching children about kindness through an unlikely friendship between two animals. Storytelling must be in this family’s genes because Saeed’s older sister, AlDhabi, became the world’s youngest female author to publish a bilingual book series at just 8 years old earlier this month, Guinness said. In addition to this feat, AlDhabi has also launched an initiative called "Books from Children to Children" which aims to encourage children between the ages of 4 and 10 to write in English and Arabic. Saeed said he was inspired by his older sister to pursue writing his book. "I love my sister so much, and I enjoy playing with her all the time," he told Guinness.
