Fortunately, Prince Harry’s dubious claims about therapy and war service don’t derail moving ‘Hearth of Invictus’

Published Sat, 23 Nov 2024 10:24:13 GMT

Prince Harry’s anticipated new Netflix collaboration, “Heart of Invictus,” manages to tug heartstrings and deliver uplifting messages about human resilience — when it turns its focus away from him and instead spotlights a handful of injured military veterans who have faced extraordinary challenges to compete in the 2022 Invictus Games.Perhaps it’s to be expected but Harry, the show’s executive producer and the Invictus Games’ founding patron, can’t help but use some of the screen time to slip in some well-known grievances that deal with his professed history of therapy and his antipathy towards the royal family and the British media. These complaints prove momentarily distracting, because they’ve become repetitive and because they don’t add up upon close inspection.It’s probably necessary to give Harry so much screen time, given that he’s the name brand for the Invictus Games, which return Sept. to in Dusseldorf...

UC Berkeley scholar faces renewed calls to resign over false Native American identity claims

Published Sat, 23 Nov 2024 10:24:13 GMT

UC Berkeley students and Native American scholars have renewed calls for the resignation of anthropologist Elizabeth Hoover, who became the focus of concerns about the school’s academic integrity and respect for authentic Native American identity when she publicly admitted in May that she’s “a White person who incorrectly identified as Native my whole life.”The calls for Hoover to leave UC Berkeley, or for the campus to take action, began anew this month with the announced retirement of Andrea Smith, a controversial UC Riverside ethnic studies professor who faced accusations for at least 15 years that she helped build her career and scholarship around false claims of being Cherokee.REALTED: UC Riverside professor resigns over ‘pretendian’ claims, but will keep teaching for another yearA separation agreement between UC Riverside and Smith was revealed last week, and students and scholars say it constitutes progress in the thorny question of how universities respond to tenured f...

By Tom Krisher | The Associated PressTesla is allowing some drivers to use its Autopilot driver-assist system for extended periods without making them put their hands on the steering wheel, a development that has drawn concern from U.S. safety regulators.The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has ordered Tesla to tell the agency how many vehicles have received a software update making that possible and it’s seeking more information on what the electric vehicle maker’s plans are for wider distribution.“NHTSA is concerned that this feature was introduced to consumer vehicles, and now that the existence of this feature is known to the public, more drivers may attempt to activate it,” John Donaldson, the agency’s acting chief counsel, wrote in a July 26 letter to Tesla that was posted on the agency’s website. “The resulting relaxation of controls designed to ensure that the driver remain engaged in the dynamic driving task could lead to greater driver inattention and failure...
