The wounded were being treated at half of a dozen hospitals in Kathmandu.

Giorgio Armani leaves a legacy not only as a seminal figure in the history of fashion, but also as a visionary business leader who built a globally recognized brand and multibillion-dollar business empire, industry experts said after his death Thursday at age 91.

"Armani made certain that his vision was consistent and that it was always classy, even down to presentation in the Armani Exchange stores," Shawn Grain Carter, an associate professor at the Fashion Institute of Technology, told CBS MoneyWatch.

Armani, or "Re Giorgio" (King George) as the Italians call him, famously created luxury looks for Hollywood stars, while also producing stylish accessories and clothing for everyday consumers....More

No. 1 seed Aryna Sabalenka became the first woman since Serena Williams in 2013 and 2014 to win back-to-back US Open titles on Saturday, as she cruised past No. 8 seed Amanda Anisimova in straight sets, 6-3, 7-6(3).

Sabalenka didn't seem to have her absolute A-game on Saturday, but she didn't need it as Anisimova seemed to struggle early on with the nerves of her second straight grand slam final appearance. The young American did fare better than her 6-0, 6-0 loss to Iga Swiatek in the Wimbledon final earlier in the year, but she had wayward misses, both on her serve and groundstrokes, and let herself get flustered by the little things -- including complaining to her box about not being able to see the...More

An Australian judge on Monday sentenced Erin Patterson to life in prison for killing three people with toxic mushrooms, following a weekslong trial that gripped the country.

Patterson was convicted in July of triple murder for serving a poisonous meal to her estranged husband's parents, aunt and uncle during a sumptuous beef Wellington lunch at her home in 2023. She will be eligible for parole after 33 years.

Three of Patterson's four lunch guests — her parents-in-law, Don and Gail Patterson, and Gail's sister, Heather Wilkinson — died in the hospital after the 2023 meal at her home in Leongatha, at which she served individual beef Wellington pastries containing death cap mushrooms.

She was also found guilty of attempting to murder Ian Wilkinson, Heather's husband, who survived the meal.

Patterson's estranged husband, Simon Patterson, was invited but did...More

Hundreds of LGBTQ+ Catholics and their families participated in a Holy Year pilgrimage to Rome on Saturday, celebrating a new level of acceptance in the Catholic Church after long feeling shunned and crediting Pope Francis with the change.

The vice president of the Italian bishops conference, Bishop Franceseco Savino, celebrated Mass for the pilgrims in a packed Chiesa del Gesu, the main Jesuit church in Rome. He received a sustained standing ovation in the middle of his homily when he recalled that Jubilee celebrations historically were meant to restore hope to those on the margins.

"The Jubilee was the time to free the oppressed and restore dignity to those who had been denied it," he said. "Brothers and sisters, I say this with emotion: It is time to restore dignity to everyone, especially to those who have been denied it."

Several LGBTQ+ groups participated in the...More

South Sudan said Saturday it repatriated to Mexico a man deported from the United States in July.

The man, a Mexican identified as Jesus Munoz-Gutierrez, was among a group of eight who had been in government custody in the East African country since their deportation from the U.S.

His repatriation to Mexico was carried out by South Sudan's foreign ministry in concert with the Mexican Embassy in neighboring Ethiopia, the South Sudanese foreign ministry said in a statement.

The repatriation was carried out "in full accordance with relevant international law, bilateral agreements, and established diplomatic protocols," it said.

Rights groups have argued that the Trump administration's increasing practice of deporting migrants to third countries violated...More

Eleven people, including children and a baby, were missing after a hippopotamus capsized their boat in southwestern Ivory Coast, a government official said Saturday.

The West African nation's minister for national cohesion and solidarity, Myss Belmonde Dogo, said on her Facebook page that the missing included women, little girls and an infant.

She said the hippopotamus tipped the narrow, canoe-like boat over on Friday, as it was motoring along the Sassandra River near the town of Buyo.

Three people survived the incident and were rescued, and "a search is ongoing in the hope of finding the missing victims," she said.

A 2022 study by Ivory Coast university researchers found that hippopotamuses were the species most mentioned in interactions with humans that caused deaths or injury in the country.

There are an estimated 500 hippos in Ivory Coast,...More
