Sean Coffin, a senior water polo player at Serra, helped lead the Padres to a victory over Gunn.

Both people had mild symptoms. The main symptom in both cases was red eyes, or conjunctivitis, a sign that a person has been infected through their eyes. Health officials say the risk to the general public remains low

Friends have described the West Oakland native as having “nine lives."

We are recapping “The Real Housewives of Orange County” season 18 episode 13. Shannon Beador celebrated her 60th birthday with a tea party. Alexis Bellino sent Beador an attempt at an olive branch but it was not received well. Watch the full recap to see it all unfold.

Panyaza Lesufi, a prominent figure in the African National Congress (ANC), recently made headlines during an interview with Sizwe Mpofu-Walsh.

This decision comes amid growing threats from the uMkhonto Wesizwe Party (MKP), which has condemned Hlophe’s exclusion, calling it a politically motivated act. Hlophe, […]

A HYPERSONIC jet that can fly from London to Texas in just two hours will is set to take off on its first text flight in 2025.

The futuristic plane will eventually be able to reach eyewatering speeds of up to Mach 6 (3,600mph/ 5795km/h), according to bosses.

The plane, called the Venus Stargzaer M4, boasts an advanced rocket engine that allows it to reach high-speeds and high altitudes.

Venus Aerospace and Velontra, the companies behind the jet, believe it will make hypersonic travel a reality.

“We can’t wait to dig in, make the first one fly, and ultimately perfect an engine concept that has lived mostly in textbooks but never as a production unit in the air,” Eric Briggs, Velontra’s Chief Operating Officer, said in a statement.

If successful, such a jet would completely collapse global travel times.

But Venus and Veolntra aren’t the only one with that vision.

A number of proposals, prototypes and full fledged builds of hypersonic passenger jets are coming out of the woodwork.

The so-called ‘Son of Concorde’, XB-1, completed its third test flight in September, just weeks after its second test run.

The flight reached a new maximum altitude of 15,000 feet and speeds of 232 knots – the equivalent of 267mph – with a total flight time of 32 minutes.

However, another nine tests are needed before the jet reaches Mach 1 or supersonic status.

The experimental aircraft is the centrepiece of Nasa’s Quesst mission, which aims to figure out how to fly faster than the speed of sound without the ear-aching sonic booms.

Nasa and Lockheed Martin have joined forces on the project, in hopes of bringing back supersonic aircraft after the Concorde was banned.

With each flight, experts can gather data to help develop quieter supersonic aircraft.

Reaction to the quieter sonic “thumps” will be shared with regulators, according to Nasa.

Regulators will then consider writing new sound-based rules to lift the ban on faster-than-sound flight over land.

China is also developing a hypersonic jet capable of reaching six times faster than the Concorde.

Commercial supersonic flight over land has been banned in the US for more than 50 years, and about 20 years in the UK, because of the noise of sonic booms.

As such, there have been no commercial aircrafts even capable of hypersonic or supersonic flight since the Concorde.

With several manufacturers actively developing new supersonic aircraft, the UK’s aerospace watchdog has said it will review the ban.

DREAM TEAM brings you all the latest injury, suspension and availability news ahead of Gameweek 7 in one easily digestible dose.

Bruno Fernandes is available for Manchester United’s trip to Villa Park after his red card against Tottenham was overturned upon appeal.

The Portuguese midfielder was sent off against Porto on Thursday night and will serve a one-game suspension in the Europa League.

Kobbie Mainoo is due to be assessed before Sunday’s game and is therefore considered a doubt at present.

Arsenal have some concerns at the back[/caption]

Mikel Arteta was typically vague with reporters when discussing potential absentees.

Arsenal’s head coach declared that late decisions would be made on Ben White, Takehiro Tomiyasu and Jurrien Timber, describing all three defenders as “close”.

The latter was substituted at half time in midweek as a precaution and had not been included in the latest Netherlands squad.

Carney Chukwuemeka and Reece James are expected to be Chelsea’s only absentees when they host Nottingham Forest on Sunday.

As for the visitors, Morgan Gibbs-White is available again having served his suspension in Gameweek 6.

Kevin De Bruyne and Nathan Ake have been ruled out again this weekend with Rodri and Oscar Bobb being Manchester City’s long-term injuries.

Ange Postecoglou is relatively confident Destiny Udogie will be available for Tottenham v Brighton on Sunday but a final decision will be made after the final two training sessions.

Son Heung-min is said to be “pushing hard” but a return after the international break is more likely for the South Korean forward.

As for Fabian Hurzeler’s side, Joel Veltman has recovered from illness but the young coach has several other availability hurdles to navigate, including the doubtful Simon Adingra.

Jan Paul van Hecke and Joao Pedro remain sidelined but the Seagulls might be able to call upon Brajan Gruda and Solly March, who both trained throughout the week.

Federico Chiesa is a major doubt for Liverpool’s trip to Selhurst Park in what is the early kick-off on Saturday.

Otherwise the Reds have a clean bill of health with the exception of Harvey Elliott, who remains sidelined with a fractured foot.

Eddie Howe told journalists that both Nick Pope and Fabian Schar “should be okay” for Newcastle’s visit to Everton this weekend.

However, Gameweek 7 comes too soon for strikers Callum Wilson and Alexander Isak with Anthony Gordon expected to lead the line – Kieran Trippier is also a doubt.
