Precisely one week before Thanksgiving, Orlando Hall became the eighth person incarcerated in federal prisons to be executed this year after Attorney General William Barr lifted a 17-year ban on the federal government’s implementation of the death penalty. When Hall, 49, was killed by lethal injection, he became the first person that a lame-duck administration has executed in more than 100 years.

A Brooklyn couple got married on the local news Thursday morning. Via videoconference.
Life in the time of the coronavirus pandemic is all about finding innovative ways to keep on living as normally as possible during quarantine, which is just what bride Julie Raskin and groom Matthew Haicken did with help from local station NY1, even as their August wedding plans were destroyed.
“Mornings on 1” anchor Pat Kiernan officiated the wedding over Zoom, which was held just under two weeks after Governor Andrew Cuomo issued an executive order allowing videoconference weddings in the state. Kiernan is a certified officiant and tweeted April 18, “If your routine as a couple includes spending mornings with NY1 and you’re looking to make it official, let’s try to make it happen.” Kiernan donned a tux for the special event.

And Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak was so steadfast in his belief that resigning Apple CEO Steve Jobs is a technological marvel, he repeated his praise twice during an interview with Bloomberg West’s Emily Chang and Cory Johnson. First labeling Jobs as “the greatest technical leader we’ve ever seen in our lifetime, at least,” Wozniak later amped up his statement: “He’s always going to be remembered as probably, maybe for the next 100 years, the greatest business leader — at least technology business leader — of our time,...
