MUNICH (AP) — England captain Harry Kane has made a brilliant start in Germany, where 15 goals in 10 Bundesliga games have matched another Bayern Munich great’s league record.Gerd Müller is the only other player to have scored so many after the first 10 rounds, a feat he managed in the 1968-69 season.Kane, who joined Bayern in a Bundesliga-record transfer from Tottenham in the offseason, reached Müller’s tally with hat tricks in consecutive games – first against Darmstadt in an 8-0 rout, then against Borussia Dortmund as he helped his team to a 4-0 win in “der Klassiker” last weekend.He also starred in the Champions League, scoring twice Wednesday to shoot Bayern into the next round with a 2-1 win over Galatasaray. “He’s a phenomenon and we’re proud that he’s playing for us in the team,” Bayern captain Manuel Neuer said. The question now is whether Kane can maintain his form and possibly beat Robert Lewandowski’s Bundesliga record of 41 goals in a season. The Polan...The Hollywood strikes are over.

In the United States, the national conference of Catholic bishops rejects the concept of gender transition, leaving many transgender Catholics feeling excluded. On Wednesday, the Vatican made public a sharply contrasting statement, saying it’s permissible, under certain circumstances, for trans Catholics to be baptized and serve as godparents.“It is a major step for trans inclusion … it is big and good news,” said Francis DeBernardo, executive director of Maryland-based New Ways Ministry, which advocates for greater LGBTQ acceptance in the church.The document was signed Oct. 21 by Pope Francis and Cardinal Víctor Manuel Fernández, who heads the Vatican’s Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith. It was posted Wednesday on that office’s website.If it did not cause scandal or “disorientation” among other Catholics, a transgender person “may receive baptism under the same conditions as other faithful,” the document said.Similarly, the document said trans adults — even if they had ...French President Macron opens Gaza aid conference with appeal to Israel to protect civilians

PARIS (AP) — French President Emmanuel Macron opened a Gaza aid conference on Thursday with an appeal for Israel to protect civilians as it fights Hamas, saying “all lives have equal worth” and that fighting terrorism “can never be carried out without rules.” The gathering in Paris brought together officials from Western and Arab nations, the United Nations and nongovernmental organizations, with the aim of providing urgent aid to civilians in the Gaza Strip that is being pounded by Israel in its war against Hamas. Israeli authorities weren’t participating in the talks, Macron’s office said. Macron reiterated calls for a humanitarian pause in Israel’s operations. He said that by attacking Israel on Oct. 7, Hamas “shouldered the responsibility for exposing Palestinians to terrible consequences,” and he again defended Israel’s right to defend itself. But Macron also stressed that civilians must be protected. “It’s absolutely essential. It is non-negotiable,” he said....Live updates | Turkey’s president accuses the West of weakness over Israeli actions in Gaza

Turkey’s Recep Tayyip Erdogan is urging Muslim nations to “raise our voices” over Israel’s actions in Gaza while accusing the West of “weakness” as it bears witness to these “massacres by Israel.” Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s remarks Thursday at a meeting of the 10-member Economic Cooperation Organization in Tashkent, Uzbekistan come as negotiations were underway for a three-day humanitarian cease-fire in Gaza in exchange for the release of about a dozen hostages held by Hamas. That’s according to two officials from Egypt, one from the United Nations and a Western diplomat, who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss sensitive diplomatic efforts.The deal would enable more aid, including limited amounts of fuel, to enter the besieged territory to alleviate worsening conditions for the 2.3 million Palestinians trapped there. It is being brokered by Qatar, Egypt and the United States, according to the officials and the diplomat.In Paris, officials from Western and Arab n...Stock market today: World shares advance after China reports that prices fell in October

BANGKOK (AP) — Shares opened mostly higher Thursday in Europe after mixed closes in Asia and on Wall Street as markets recalibrated following recent big swings. Germany’s DAX edged 0.2% higher to 15,254.10 and the CAC 40 in Paris advanced 0.4% to 7,060.85. Britain’s FTSE 100 slipped 0.1% to 7,393.42. On Wall Street, the future for the S&P 500 was little changed and that for the Dow Jones Industrial Average edged 0.1% higher. On Wednesday, the S&P 500 edged up 0.1%, barely managing to extend the index’s winning streak to eight days. That ties its longest such winning streak since a nine-day run 19 years ago. The Dow slipped 0.1% and the Nasdaq composite rose 0.1%.A dearth of fresh economic data has left the markets mostly quiet this week. China reported that its consumer prices fell 0.2% from a year earlier in October while factory-gate prices declined 2.6%, suggesting demand remains slack as the world’s second-largest economy struggles to recover from the e...El Vaticano dice que, en algunos casos, los transexuales y los bebés de parejas del mismo sexo pueden ser bautizados

(CNN) — Una nueva decisión del departamento de Doctrina del Vaticano abrió la puerta al bautismo católico a las personas transexuales y a los bebés de parejas del mismo sexo —al tiempo que califica de pecado el estilo de vida de las personas homosexuales—. La resolución ha sido bien acogida por las personas LGBTQ, pero despreciada por los conservadores.Las nuevas normas, fechadas el 31 de octubre, proceden de una serie de preguntas o dubia presentadas al Dicasterio para la Doctrina de la Fe por el obispo brasileño Giuseppe Negri. Las respuestas a sus preguntas sobre determinados sacramentos se publicaron en la página web del Vaticano en italiano el miércoles por la noche.¿Cuándo podrían ser bautizadas las personas transexuales y los hijos de parejas homosexuales?En cuanto a los transexuales, el documento dice que una persona que se identifique como transexual puede ser bautizada como cualquier otro adulto, “siempre que no haya riesgo de causar escándalo o desorientación&...Restaurant review: Gazzetta

Rue de la Longue Haie 12What’s good? The menu is small, with some reliable staples and a few surprise dishes. There are three variations on pasta to choose from: a pasta of the day, a simple tomato-basil pasta, or the speciale — a more elaborate dish that typically includes meat or fish (recently: swordfish with pesto). You can also feast on any combination of appetizers — read: cheeses — or opt for a delicious carne alla griglia, served rare with a side of vegetables.What’s not? You can’t make a reservation, so it can be a bit of a gamble. Plan to come early or be ready to wait around a little. If you’re unlucky, or in a rush, the residential street doesn’t offer up any immediate consolation prizes.Vibe: The space is modern and welcoming, with dim lighting, high tables and a view into the open kitchen.
