A dispute between two major Canadian freight railways and their union is expected to come to a close soon as the country’s labor minister has ordered a third party to mediate.

Negotiations between Canadian National Railway (CN) and Canadian Pacific Kansas City (CPKC), and the Teamsters labor union, began about a year ago but have been unsuccessful. The railways imposed lockouts on union employees Thursday as they threatened to strike.

“These collective bargaining negotiations belong to these parties, but their effects and the impacts of the current impasse are being borne by all Canadians. And there is an impasse,” Canadian Labor Minister Steven MacKinnon said at a news conference Thursday.

The biggest diamond in over a century is found in Botswana — a whopping 2,492 carats

Under Canada’s labor code, he has ordered binding arbitration, which involves an independent party — in this case, the Canada Industrial Relations Board — assisting with mediation. He additionally is requiring the railways to eventually resume their services, and extend their current collective bargaining agreements until new ones are signed.

MacKinnon said he expects the labor board to reach a decision in the next couple days.

CN said it lifted its lockout Thursday evening in order to “expedite the recovery of the economy,” but still has not reached a new collective bargaining agreement with Teamsters.

CPKC said it was prepared to resume its operations, but claims Teamsters did not want to discuss the matter and plans to challenge the constitutionality of MacKinnon’s order.

“It is the government’s responsibility to ensure industrial peace in this critically vital sector,” MacKinnon said. “Thus we will be examining why we experienced repeated conflicts in the railway sector and the conditions that led to the parallel work stoppages we are seeing.”

Teamsters, which represents 10,000 employees at the railways, said, “The main obstacles to reaching an agreement remain the companies’ demands, not union proposals.”

The union is accusing the railways of undermining employees’ protections surrounding their schedules and breaks, as well as trying to relocate several workers.

CN said in a series of offers to Teamsters, it has proposed employees work less hours in a month, increased wages, including 65 Canadian dollars (US$47.80) an hour for conductors and 75 Canadian dollars (US$55.20) an hour for locomotive engineers, improved safety measures and job security. It said Teamsters has either denied or not responded to their offers.

CPKC said it has presented higher wages, increased shift differentials and other items that have been denied by the union.

“CPKC has bargained in good faith, but despite our best efforts, it is clear that a negotiated outcome with the [Teamsters] is not within reach,” the company said.” The [Teamsters] leadership continues to make unrealistic demands that would fundamentally impair the railway’s ability to serve our customers with a reliable and cost-competitive transportation service.”

MacKinnon said he denied a request for binding arbitration last week, as he wanted to give the parties an opportunity to work it out among themselves and thought there would be more progress.

He added he has gotten helpful advice from several U.S. stakeholders and businesses about how to handle the situation, and that their relationships remain strong.

MacKinnon stressed the effects a work stoppage can have on the Canadian economy, as the nation’s commuters, businesses, farmers and more rely on the railways.

“It’s not my job to pick sides here, we’re interested solely in making sure that labor relations in this country remain on a sure footing and that this very unusual situation, where we have two national railways who have suspended operations that that situation not be prolonged unduly,” he said.

Members of the Kennedy family denounce RFK Jr.'s decision to endorse Trump

Image: 2024 Democratic National Convention: Day 2 chicago dnc Jack Schlossberg political politics

WASHINGTON — Multiple members of the Kennedy family denounced Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s decision to endorse former President Donald Trump, calling the move a "betrayal."

"We want an America filled with hope and bound together by a shared vision of a brighter future, a future defined by individual freedom, economic promise and national pride," said a statement signed by five of the former independent presidential candidate's siblings.

"We believe in Harris and Walz," the statement continued. "Our brother Bobby's decision to endorse Trump today is a betrayal of the values that our father and our family hold most dear. It is a sad ending to a sad story."

The statement includes signatures from Kathleen Kennedy Townsend, Courtney Kennedy, Kerry Kennedy, Chris Kennedy and Rory Kennedy.

Joe Kennedy III, a grandson of Robert F. Kennedy, reacted to the statement, sharing it on X and writing that it was "well said."

Separately, the former candidate's cousin Jack Schlossberg said that he has "never been less surprised in my life."

"Been saying it for over a year — RFKjr is for sale, works for Trump. Bedfellows and loving it," he posted to X. "Kamala Harris is for the people — the easiest decision of all time just got easier."

Schlossberg is the grandson of former President John F. Kennedy.

Many members of the Kennedy family have been publicly critical of the independent's presidential bid, instead vocalizing their support for first President Joe Biden and now Harris.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced on Friday that he would withdraw from the presidential race and back Trump. However, he said that he would only remove his name from the ballot in "about 10 battleground states where my presence would be a spoiler." He encouraged voters in states where he remains on the ballot to still support him.

"These are the principled causes that persuaded me to leave the Democratic Party and run as an independent, and now to throw my support to President Trump," he said during his Friday remarks. "The causes were: Free speech, the war in Ukraine, and the war on our children."

Harris campaign chair Jen O'Malley Dillon said in a statement that the Harris campaign is for "any American out there who is tired of Donald Trump and looking for a new way forward."

"Even if we do not agree on every issue, Kamala Harris knows there is more that unites us than divides us: respect for our rights, public safety, protecting our freedoms, and opportunity for all," she said in a bid to attract Kennedy supporters.

Megan Lebowitz is a politics reporter for NBC News.

Mike Lynch won a dramatic 12-year legal battle over his tech company. Weeks later, he and his top lawyer are dead.

  • Mike Lynch won an unexpected jury acquittal after a dramatic 12-year legal saga.
  • HP accused him of cooking the books of his company Autonomy to make it seem worth billions more.
  • He finally won — and then he, his lawyer, and his codefendant all died within days.

Insider Today

In 2011, Mike Lynch was the toast of the tech world.

Hailed as Britain's Bill Gates, Lynch sold Autonomy, his groundbreaking data-management company, to Hewlett-Packard for $11 billion.

Shareholders and business commentators were puzzled about what HP, a hardware company, would do with Autonomy, a software company — and why the latter was worth $11 billion. HP's executives said at the time that Autonomy had the potential to transform HP and usher the Silicon Valley titan into a new generation.

None of that happened. A year after the acquisition, HP wrote down $8.8 billion of the purchase value and accused Lynch of lying about Autonomy's finances.

The claim led to a vicious decadelong series of legal disputes.

Another Autonomy executive, Sushovan Hussain, was convicted of fraud in 2018 and sentenced to five years in prison. Federal prosecutors brought criminal charges against Lynch and Stephen Chamberlain, the company's former vice president of finance.

Lynch's court battles concluded with a three-month criminal trial in San Francisco. After just two days of deliberation, jurors found Lynch and Chamberlain not guilty on all counts.

"The truth has finally prevailed," his lawyer Chris Morvillo said.

Within months, Lynch, Chamberlain, and Morvillo were all dead.

A takeover doomed from the start

Lynch, who studied neural networks for his Ph.D. at Cambridge University, spun off Autonomy from a previous company, Cambridge Neurodynamics, in 1996.

Using sophisticated algorithms, Autonomy allowed users to organize and search through large amounts of unstructured data. It was a bright spot in Britain's tech industry and was listed on the country's stock-market index.

Autonomy's clients included Oracle, Adobe, Cisco, AT&T, and HP itself. But HP's purchase of Autonomy was controversial.

The hardware company's CEO, Léo Apotheker , who had been in the position for less than a year, tried to shift the company's direction. HP had struggled to sell printers and servers as part of its traditional hardware business. Apotheker wanted to spin off HP's personal-computing division and make a big bet on moving the company into software, which had higher margins.

Analysts hated the idea. Shareholders sued. HP's value dropped by more than half. The company's board fired Apotheker within weeks of the decision to buy Autonomy, before the deal even closed.

Related stories

His successor, Meg Whitman, fired Lynch and wrote down the value of Autonomy by $8.8 billion, which indicated HP paid nearly four times what it should have. The New York Times columnist James B. Stewart floated the case that it was the worst acquisition in corporate history — even worse than AOL's ill-fated purchase of Time Warner.

In a stunning move, HP accused Lynch of fraud the following year. The company alleged he and Hussain, a former CFO, inflated Autonomy's sales figures. The FBI and the UK's Serious Fraud Office both opened investigations.

Lynch fervently denied accusations of wrongdoing. He pointed out that Autonomy was audited by Deloitte, which hadn't found issues. Lynch said HP stifled Autonomy with mismanagement and bureaucracy that pushed out employees and stymied sales.

The culture at HP, he said, was poisonous.

"It was like boarding a plane, realizing the engine is on fire, and then going up to the cockpit only to find that the pilots are having a fight," he told The Telegraph at the time .

According to The New York Times, lawyers representing shareholders in the lawsuit against HP obtained a copy of the company's own KPMG-prepared due-diligence report. The report said that Autonomy wasn't transparent enough with its finances, but Apotheker moved forward with the takeover anyway, deciding that Autonomy's potential was worth it.

A legal morass

The UK's Serious Fraud Office announced in January 2015 that it closed its investigation into Autonomy, finding insufficient evidence for legal action, though it referred some issues to the US Justice Department.

In the subsequent months, HP and Lynch sued each other in the UK. As those cases wound their way through the British court system, US prosecutors continued investigating HP's purchase of Autonomy. In 2016, they brought fraud charges against Hussain, who was found guilty in a 2018 jury trial. British regulators formally barred him from the financial industry earlier this year after he completed a five-year sentence in the US.

HP unloaded Autonomy altogether, selling parts of it in 2016 and 2017.

In November 2018, Justice Department prosecutors went directly after Lynch and Chamberlain.

Their indictment accused Lynch and Chamberlain of falsifying financial documents, lying to auditors and regulators, and suppressing the voices of people who criticized Autonomy's financial practices.

Lynch was no longer looking at civil fights over money. He was facing the prospect of up to 20 years in prison.

For years, Lynch fought extradition to the US. Powerful in British political circles — he had advised David Cameron when Cameron was prime minister and served on the boards of the BBC and the British Museum — he and his lawyers argued that his legal issues should play out in the UK, not the US. American criminal laws were unfairly stacked against him, his lawyers said.

HP's lawsuit against Lynch — still churning in the background — finally went to trial in 2019. Apotheker testified he would have abandoned the Autonomy acquisition if he had a better understanding of its finances. Lynch argued that the whole morass was orchestrated by Whitman, Apotheker's successor, who harbored political ambitions (she ran for governor in California and is currently the US ambassador to Kenya) and wanted to shift the blame for Autonomy's failures to someone else.

Robert Hildyard, the judge who oversaw the case, ruled mostly in HP's favor. In a 2022 decision that ran over 1,700 pages, he wrote that HP overpaid for Autonomy because of deceit from Lynch and Hussain. Hildyard hadn't yet decided how much they would owe in damages, but he wrote it would be "substantially less" than the $5 billion HP asked for.

When he wasn't fighting legal battles, Lynch continued to be an entrepreneur. He founded a venture-capital firm, Invoke Capital, and invested in and helped run the cybersecurity firm Darktrace, which,  Politico reported, has deep ties  to Britain's intelligence agencies.

Financial disclosures Lynch filed last year as part of his criminal case indicated he was worth about $450 million.

The criminal trial

The UK finally extradited Lynch to the US in May 2023 , where he prepared for his trial — alongside Chamberlain as a codefendant — while under house arrest in San Francisco.

Lynch had a top-shelf legal team, but after the British court loss and Hussain's conviction, the chances of an acquittal seemed bleak.

Lynch testified at the end of his three-month trial, which began in March, telling jurors he wasn't involved in day-to-day financial oversight of the company. Misunderstandings, he said, could be chalked up to the differences between British and American accounting practices.

"A lot of what we've been looking at is like peering through the door of a kitchen and seeing the sausage-making machine, and that's how it really works," he told jurors, according to The Times of London . "If you take the microscope into even the most spotless kitchen, you'd find bacteria. If it wasn't there, that'd be something very abnormal. I don't think Autonomy was any different."

Jurors believed him. In June, they declared Lynch not guilty of the 15 charges against him, clearing Chamberlain as well.

Morvillo, one of Lynch's lawyers in the trial — as well as in the preceding decade of legal disputes — praised the jury, saying it had rejected "the government's profound overreach in this case."

"This verdict closes the book on a relentless 13-year effort to pin HP's well-documented ineptitude on Dr. Lynch," Morvillo said in a joint statement with his attorney colleague Brian Heberlig. "Thankfully, the truth has finally prevailed."

In an interview with The Times of London after the trial , Lynch reflected on how, with a great burden lifted off him at the age of 59, he could remake his life.

He mourned the deaths of his brother and mother, who both died ahead of the criminal trial. He mused about using his fortune to start a British version of the Innocence Project, which prevents wrongful convictions in the US.

"Now you have a second life," he told The Times. "The question is, what do you want to do with it?"

But first, a celebration. Lynch; his wife, Angela Bacares; one of his two daughters; Morvillo and his wife, Neda; and several others went on a superyacht, the Bayesian , which was anchored outside Sicily and owned by Bacares.

Chamberlain moved back to the UK. While running near his home, a driver hit him with a car . He died in a hospital on Saturday.

On Monday, a sudden storm struck the Bayesian. The yacht capsized.

Of its 22 passengers, 15, including Bacares, were rescued.

But rescuers have pulled five bodies from the wreckage, including Morvillo's and Lynch's . A sixth remains trapped inside the boat. Lynch's daughter Hannah remains missing.

Correction: August 22, 2024 — An earlier version of this story misnamed Lynch's lawyer. His name was Chris Morvillo, not Charles Morvillo.

What Should I Wear to a Yacht Party?

The date is set, and your RSVP is confirmed. And you’ve likely spread the word that you’ll soon be attending a party on a yacht in Marina del Rey (because why wouldn’t you?).

But the question still remains…What do you wear?

At FantaSea Yachts, we often hear this from clients hosting an event aboard one of our luxury yachts. Our answer is simple – it depends on the party and the time of day. We’ve compiled a few tips to jumpstart your yacht party inspo board. 

What do I wear to a daytime yacht event?

When the sun is out, it’s a great time to play on the water. We’ve planned countless celebrations – brunches, lunchtime events, and casual cruises – for different groups during the day. All guest attire tends to be similar. Breezy. Light. Think linen pants or jackets, flowing dresses, polo or oxford shirts… relaxed but stylish. This is your chance to dress differently than your normal attire; leave the jeans, t-shirts, leggings, and board shorts at home, and impress your fellow partygoers with a well-put-together outfit. It never hurts to sport a nautical-themed look (navy stripes and gold accents, included) to pay homage to the setting. Don’t think of it as gimmicky – it’s part of the fun! If you’re looking for nautical inspiration, check out this article, 12 Ultra Cute Ways to Wear Nautical-Inspired Clothes.  

For daytime yacht parties, we recommend flat shoes, strappy sandals, low wedges for the ladies, and a pair of classic loafers for the gentlemen. 

What do I wear to a nighttime yacht party?

Whether it’s a boat wedding , milestone bash , or company party , nighttime yacht parties are always magical. From twinkling lights to starry skies, the moment you step onto one of our rooftop sky decks prepared to be WOWED. And that in itself is more than enough reason to dress up extra special. 

Nighttime parties are great for cocktail dresses and semi-formal attire. Ladies, you don’t want to wear anything too long to avoid someone stepping on your dress or your shoe getting caught on the fabric. Go for comfortable glamor. If you opt for a cocktail dress, make sure the length is appropriate. Have fun accessorizing with statement jewelry and your favorite clutch or small shoulder bag (avoid a large tote or purse for an ultra-chic look).

For men, simplicity is the name of the game. Unless the event calls for formal attire, steer away from a tuxedo. Top options include a classic suit, dress slacks with a nice blazer and tie, or dress slacks with a sports coat and tie. Not sure what the difference is between a suit jacket, blazer, and sports coat? This Jos.A.Bank article breaks it down . 

Of course, if your celebration is a yacht wedding , that will bring into account a more specific set of dressing dos and don’ts. Often formal attire will be the norm, but you should always ask your friends who are hosting their wedding on a yacht to see if the ceremony and reception is formal or casual.

Similarly, if the affair is a birthday yacht rental , then check with the hosts to learn if they are planning a unique theme that would require a specific fashion statement.  

What should I always take to a celebration on a  yacht?

There are two stand-out answers to this question: A light sweater or jacket (it’s always cooler on the water), and your favorite pair of sunglasses. Other considerations include sunscreen, a fashionable hat, hair ties (in case it’s too breezy), and lip balm or chapstick. People often ask if motion sickness medication is needed. Our answer is no. The great thing about our cruises is that we stay in the Marina del Rey harbor and don’t go past the breakwater. This eliminates any wave activity (there are NO waves), which makes for an easy, smooth ride. There is virtually no risk of seasickness or motion sickness cruising these calm waters.

What not to wear to a yacht party?

This may seem obvious, but high heels or stilettos are probably the least popular accessory on ANY yacht cruise – day OR night. We also recommended avoiding super casual flip-flops as the look can appear sloppy.

FAQ for Yacht Party Attire Essentials

1. what essentials should i bring to a yacht party.

Motion sickness medication is generally not needed for our smooth Marina del Rey harbor cruises, which experience no wave activity

2. Are there any specific accessories I should bring to a yacht party?

Yes, essential accessories for a yacht party include a light sweater or jacket, as it can be cooler on the water, and sunglasses. Additionally, consider bringing sunscreen, a fashionable hat, hair ties, and lip balm. Avoid large bags; a small clutch or shoulder bag is ideal.

3. What types of shoes are appropriate for a yacht party?

For yacht parties, choose flat shoes, strappy sandals, or low wedges for women, and classic loafers for men. Avoid high heels or stilettos, as they are impractical on a yacht, and steer clear of casual flip-flops for a more polished look.

You want to look stylish and comfortable while also taking into account the weather conditions and the yacht’s dress code. In this article, we’ll provide you with some tips and guidelines on what to wear to a yacht party.

Dress Code: What to Expect

Before we dive into what to wear, it’s essential to understand the dress code for the yacht party. Check the invitation or communicate with the host to find out if there’s a specific dress code mentioned. Some yacht parties may have a more formal dress code, while others may be more casual.

Formal Dress Code:

  • Suits and ties : A navy blue or charcoal grey suit with a crisp white shirt and a tie is a classic combination.
  • Blazers and trousers : A navy blue or charcoal grey blazer with matching trousers and a dress shirt is also a great option.
  • Formal dresses : A cocktail dress or a formal gown in a lightweight fabric such as silk or chiffon is a great choice.
  • Skirts and tops : A knee-length skirt with a blouse or a silk top is another option.

Casual Dress Code:

  • T-shirts and shorts : A pair of shorts with a graphic T-shirt and a pair of flip-flops is a casual and comfortable option.
  • Polos and jeans : A polo shirt with a pair of dark-washed jeans and loafers or sneakers is also a great option.
  • T-shirts and leggings : A pair of leggings with a T-shirt and a pair of sneakers or sandals is a casual and comfortable option.
  • Dresses and sandals : A sundress with a pair of sandals is a great choice for a casual yacht party.

What to Wear:

Now that we’ve covered the dress code, let’s talk about what to wear to a yacht party. Here are some general guidelines:

  • Choose lightweight fabrics : Lightweight fabrics such as cotton, linen, or silk are perfect for a yacht party as they will keep you cool and comfortable in the sun.
  • Dress for the weather : Check the weather forecast before the party and dress accordingly. If it’s going to be hot, wear light-colored clothing and a hat to protect yourself from the sun.
  • Comfortable shoes : Wear comfortable shoes that are suitable for walking on the yacht’s deck. Avoid high heels or flip-flops that may not provide enough support.
  • Accessories : Add a touch of elegance with accessories such as a watch, a pair of sunglasses, or a scarf.
  • Layering : Wear layers that can be easily removed or added as needed. This will help you stay comfortable in changing weather conditions.

Blouses Formal Silk or cotton, relaxed fit
Suits Formal Navy blue or charcoal grey, slim fit

Tips and Tricks:

  • Dress for the occasion : Consider the type of yacht party you’re attending and dress accordingly. If it’s a daytime party, opt for lighter colors and a more casual dress code. If it’s an evening party, opt for darker colors and a more formal dress code.
  • Be mindful of the yacht’s facilities : Some yachts may not have showers or changing facilities, so dress accordingly.
  • Bring a jacket or sweater : Even if it’s warm outside, the yacht may be air-conditioned, so it’s a good idea to bring a light jacket or sweater.
  • Don’t forget sunscreen and sunglasses : Protect yourself from the sun with sunscreen and sunglasses.
