In a letter to staff, ZSL's chair of trustees, Jim Smith, wrote that an investigation into claims of unacceptable workplace behaviour found that Matthew Gould's conduct fell below the standard we expect.

I've taken this step because I feel that I need to protect free speech.

A Fed official told Reuters that before resigning, Kugler asked Fed Chair Jerome Powell for a waiver to fix the disclosure issues and address investing rule violations tied to her spouse's trades including individual stock transactions and trades made around Fed policy meetings. The request was reportedly denied. As a result, Kugler missed a July 2025 Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting for personal reasons and, shortly after, resigned on Aug. 1.

The Board was demanding that I compromise my integrity and values. I would not do that, she said. I stand by my values and my reputation as a professional administrator for the past twenty-five years.

I would like to say it has been the privilege of my career to serve as the CEO of BBC News and to work with our brilliant team of journalists. I stepped down over the weekend because the buck stops with me. But I'd like to make one thing very clear, BBC News is not institutionally biased. That's why it's the world's most trusted news provider.

My reason is simple: I no longer can bear to be restrained by what judges can say publicly or do outside the courtroom. President Donald Trump is using the law for partisan purposes, targeting his adversaries while sparing his friends and donors from investigation, prosecution, and possible punishment. This is contrary to everything that I have stood for in my more than 50 years in the Department of Justice and on the bench.

When Sam, the founder of a fast-growing tech company, came to see me, he was exhausted. For over a dozen years, he had poured everything into his startup, building it up to hundreds of employees and revenues nearing a hundred million. But as market shifts and new technologies gave rise to fierce competitors, growth had stalled... and so had Sam. In our sessions, Sam vacillated between two poles. At times, he would slump in his chair, shoulders collapsed, voice flat: "I'm thinking of just quitting."

I will take responsibility once the situation is resolved,

A Vermont state lawmaker has resigned over racist and antisemitic chat messages that circulated within the Young Republican political group, another substantial consequence in a scandal that on Friday saw the New York state Young Republicans' charter revoked.

Shildt expanded on his decision in an interview with the San Diego Union-Tribune's Kevin Acee yesterday, and said that his mental stress with the job was compounded when he received some death threats late in the season. Acee also explored some of the internal criticisms leveled at Shildt by some Padres staffers, including the view that Shildt had a short temper and was too quickly heated over any questions about his decision-making or thought process. With Shildt giving the Padres players a wide berth to police their own clubhouse, Shildt was accused by some of micro-managing and being too harsh with his coaches and other team staff members.

She wrote she attempted suicide on her birthday, Sept. 11, and subsequently spent 18 days in a mental health facility. She said she sent the letter after being "filled with guilt, shame, and grief." "I had not been found out; in effect, I turned myself in," Wallace said in the Oct. 5 letter, adding that while she was in the hospital, she'd given the church a list of account numbers and passwords so her "actions could be more easily discovered."

A former New York judge who joined Anderson Kill last month told Law360 that he made the move because of family considerations and a looming mandatory retirement when he turns 70 years old in a few years. But former Judge Louis L. Nock did not mention that he joined the law firm on the same day that New York ethics regulators agreed to drop ethics charges against him in return for his agreement to resign from the bench and never accept judicial office again,

Erroll Southers confirmed his plans to resign through a spokesperson on Friday, ending a stormy two-year tenure on the influential civilian panel that watches over the LAPD. The spokesperson said that Southers, 68, wanted to spend more time with his family and pursue other professional opportunities - something that wasn't always allowed by the demands of serving as a commissioner.

For reasons that he did not share publicly, Oakland Police Chief Floyd Mitchell is leaving his post after less than a year and a half on the job, which leaves Oakland once again in search of a new police chief. The city of Oakland has had quite a few chiefs leading its police department in the last two decades. They don't tend to last long in the job on average, about two years, with 12 different people holding the post since 2000.

During the emotional segment, which aired Thursday at the beginning of the network's Marketplace show, Harmony called Kirk her first boss and mentor, recounting how he encouraged young staff to speak with passion, with conviction, stand up for your friends, stand up for your beliefs, and speak loudly, even if your voice shakes.
