Marlee Matlin has worked with interpreter Jack Jason for roughly 40 years, a partnership that has made his voice familiar to audiences watching her interviews and public appearances.
On the Sept. 28th episode of The Person Who Believed in Me, host David Begnaud asked whether people ever question why a woman uses a male interpreter.
"I want people to think that I smoke five packs of cigarettes a day, and that's why I have a deep voice," Matlin joked.
Jason is also her business and producing partner. When they met, however, Matlin said she had only recently left high school and knew little about working with professional interpreters.
Matlin had just finished filming Children of a Lesser God and was living in New York with Hurt, her costar and boyfriend at the time. He was preparing for a magazine interview at their home and did not want the reporter to see them together, she told Begnaud, according to PEOPLE.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's bombshell 2021 interview with Oprah Winfrey has resurfaced after reports suggested the couple "regret" statements they made while speaking with the media mogul.
The Duke and ****** ss of Sussex are supposedly preparing to apologize for remarks that included allegations that a royal family member had made comments about their son Prince Archie's skin color.
Other reports, however, indicate that claims of an impending apology are not true, as sources close to Prince Harry and Meghan have dismissed them as "nonsense" and "total rubbish."

According to reports, Harry and Meghan wish to ask forgiveness for the interview that further strained relations between the Sussexes and the royal family now that they have returned to the UK.

National Republicans have spent months trying to rescue Ken Paxton. He's complicating that effort.
Tensions are brewing with some Republicans after POLITICO published Paxton's closed-door comments that "D.C." Republicans were largely controlling his race.
"He is welcome to raise his own money and say whatever he wants," said one Republican involved in the Paxton rescue effort, who like others in this article was granted anonymity to speak candidly. "In fact, if he did that, he'd probably be winning right now and we wouldn't need to spend all this money."
"This just seems like Paxton preparing to blame others for what might be one of the most embarrassing defeats in modern political history," said Carlos Curbelo, a former Florida GOP representative.
Senate Republicans and top operatives didn't want to be in this position in the first place. Many had warned that the Trump effort to unseat Sen. John Cornyn and back Paxton in the primary would cost Republicans hundreds of millions to drag Paxton across the finish line in the general election. Cornyn and Senate GOP groups spent millions of dollars on ads during the primary attacking Paxton over his series of scandals and warning he was a flawed candidate.

Ray Fisher became internationally recognizable as the technologically enhanced superhero Cyborg, but his career began far from the world of comic book blockbusters. The American actor developed his craft through theater before making the leap to major Hollywood productions. His upbringing, particularly the influence of his mother and grandmother, helped shape the values he later carried into his professional life. When Fisher encountered difficulties behind the scenes of Justice League, he chose to speak publicly about his experience. That decision became an important part of a career increasingly ****** ociated with both performance and workplace accountability.
Born in Baltimore, Maryland, Fisher grew up in Lawnside, New Jersey, in a large family raised primarily by his mother and grandmother. He has described both women as his real life superheroes, praising the determination and strength they demonstrated while he was growing up. His interest in acting became serious during high school, when encouragement from a teacher led him to audition for theatrical productions.
Fisher continued developing as a stage performer and eventually established himself in professional theater. One of his most demanding early roles was Muhammad Ali in the Off Broadway production Fetch Clay, Make Man. Preparing to portray the legendary boxer required substantial physical transformation as well as the ability to capture Ali's confidence and personality. The experience demonstrated the discipline Fisher could bring to a role before Hollywood audiences became familiar with him.
His major screen opportunity arrived when Zack Snyder selected him to play Victor Stone, better known as Cyborg, in the DC film universe. Fisher made a brief appearance in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice before receiving a much larger role in Justice League. Production changed significantly after Snyder left the project and Joss Whedon took over during post production. The theatrical version released in 2017 reduced much of Cyborg's original storyline.
In 2020, Fisher publicly accused Whedon of inappropriate and unprofessional behavior during the Justice League reshoots. WarnerMedia subsequently conducted an investigation after Fisher raised concerns involving the production. In December 2020, the company announced that the investigation had concluded and that remedial action had been taken, without publicly detailing what those measures involved.

During most of the decades you are preparing financially for retirement, you are likely focused on saving as close as you can get to the recommended amount, without worrying too much about the details. As you approach retirement, however, it's a good idea to look more closely at what might be a realistic retirement budget. At age 62, with $890,000 in a 401(k) account, $115,000 in a Roth IRA and accounting for Social Security benefits, you can likely generate enough income to cover typical retiree lifestyle expenses. Your individual needs may vary, of course, but there are likely moves you can make now and in retirement to give you the flexibility you'll need to fund a comfortable and secure retirement.
Consider speaking with a financial advisor for help building an effective retirement strategy.
A typical retirement budget starts with the income side and Social Security benefits represent an important part of that for a large majority of retirees. Social Security is lifelong, guaranteed by the U.S. government and includes annual cost-of-living adjustments to keep up with inflation. The amount of your specific benefit is controlled by your work history and age at claiming. ****** uming your current income is $90,000 annually, here are estimates of your annual Social Security benefit based on your age when you start claiming benefits:

LONDON (AP) — British police on Tuesday arrested a 22-year-old man in London on suspicion of a terror offense over a security incident at a U.S.-run military air base in England that authorities have linked to Iran.
The arrest is the seventh in connection with a suspected plot against RAF Fairford, located 100 miles (160 kilometers) west of London, which has been used by American bombers to strike Iran during this year's war.
Five British men in their 20s were detained near the perimeter of the base in the early hours of Sept. 27, and a 25-year-old British-Iranian man was arrested in London on Thursday. All six have been released on bail under investigation.
Counter Terrorism Policing said a British national was detained Tuesday in the Westminster area of central London on suspicion of preparing terrorist acts.
Vicki Evans, the senior national coordinator for counterterrorism policing, said detectives "continue to pursue multiple lines of inquiry" and "remain committed to investigating all possible angles."

By Kate Holton and Steve Holland
LONDON/WASHINGTON, Oct 5 (Reuters) - US President Donald Trump said on Monday that a threat linked to Iran had prompted the removal of American B-1 bombers from a British airbase.
The planes had been stationed at RAF Fairford, the preferred European base for US bombers, and had recently been used in US strikes on Iran. Last week, five British ‌men were arrested near the base — which Iran's Revolutionary Guards previously said was a legitimate target — on suspicion of preparing terrorist acts.
"We had an idea that there might be a threat, and why ‌would I leave them there? It costs very little money to move them," Trump told reporters on Monday. "So we had a threat, and if we're going to be threatened, we just move them, and that sort of alleviates that. And we actually know the people that made the threat."
When asked if they were linked to Iran, Trump responded: "They would be linked to Iran."

Denise Brown — the sister of the late Nicole Brown Simpson — opened up about the night before Nicole's 1994 murder, revealing that she witnessed O.J. Simpson stalking his ex while the siblings were having dinner together.
"I said all the wrong things to Nicole: 'You've got to leave him. You've got to get out of this situation. What are you doing?'" Denise, 69, told The Guardian on Monday, October 5. "That was not being supportive. I want people to get educated and be supportive, and I want victims to know they're not alone in this situation, and it's not their fault that this is happening to them."
Nicole began dating O.J. when she was just 18 years old, and he was 30. They tied the knot in February 1985, welcoming daughter Sydney that same year. Their son, Justin, was born in 1988. After years of domestic violence allegations, the pair divorced in February 1992.

According to Denise — who is preparing to release her new book, For My Sister Nicole — she and Nicole were out to dinner for a family celebration on June 11, 1994, when Nicole noticed the former Buffalo Bills star driving by.

Royal commentator and journalist Rob Shuter says he's all for the concept.
"It's his right to tell the story. That is his mom. Lots and lots of people will be making documentaries next year," he told "NewsNation Prime" on Saturday. "The historian in me, the reporter in me, says we want as much information as we possibly can get, and who better to talk about Princess Diana than her son?"
New book by Princess Diana's brother prompts war of words with King Charles III
The former Diana Spencer, who married and later divorced Prince Charles, was killed in a car crash in Paris in August 1997. At the time of her death, her eldest son, William, was 15; Harry was 12.

The owners at Andrewsfield Aviation, near Braintree in Essex, said they were preparing to close operations because there was no successor lined up after they retired.
But the TV chef, who achieved his pilot licence in July, helped arrange new ownership to ensure the hangar doors remained open.
"Andrewsfield is a special place with so much potential," said Oliver, who is from Essex.
"It has an extraordinary history and is full of wonderful people with an exemplary training environment that has changed my life for the better."

Imagine spending decades wondering about your biological parents, only to discover that your dad is an icon of the '70s rock era.
That's what happened to Michael Goessling, a St. Louis man who was adopted as an infant and recently learned that his biological father is a five-time Grammy winner and Doobie Brothers crooner, Michael McDonald.
Goessling had always known he was adopted and says he had a wonderful childhood with his parents, Paul and Kay. But questions about his biological family remained until a half-brother he never knew existed took a 23andMe DNA test and received a match identifying Goessling as his half-brother.
Goessling eventually met his birth mother on his 58th birthday and later spoke with his biological father by phone. When his father mentioned that he was a musician preparing for a tour stop in St. Louis, Goessling put the pieces together and asked, "Are you Michael McDonald?" McDonald's response: "Yeah, I'm afraid so."
After finding out, father and son met in person, with Goessling recalling that McDonald immediately greeted him with a hug. The reunion came with another surprise for McDonald: He also learned he was a grandfather.

The intelligence report, circulated across the US military this spring in the midst of the war with Iran, immediately set off alarm bells: A Chinese ship in the Middle East was transporting components of a nuclear weapons program.
The US military swung into action with plans to intercept the vessel, according to four sources familiar with the episode. According to two of the sources, armed members of the US military were preparing to board the ship. Military planes were in the air, one of those sources and another source familiar with the incident said.
It was only just before the planned operation that officials dug deeper into the report put together by a special operations command ****** yst and found it had been generated with the help of artificial intelligence (AI) — and that a chatbot the ****** yst had used inaccurately identified the material the ship was carrying. CNN was not able to learn what the misidentified cargo was.
The report, according to one of the sources, was “entirely false.” But it also “almost started a war,” the source said. Any US operation against a Chinese vessel could have risked spiraling into an armed conflict between the two nations.
Across the US military and the intelligence community, officials are pushing to weave AI into nearly every facet of their work, from ****** yzing the huge volumes of raw intelligence the US collects and selecting targets for strikes, to more mundane applications like managing budgeting, logistics and supply chains.

When it comes to retirement plans, many couples aren't on the same page. Just 43% of married couples agree on what retirement looks like for them. Unfortunately, this is a big problem, as close to half of all married Americans feel financially dependent on their spouses.
If you need your spouse's financial contributions to live out your dreams for your later years, but you don't agree on what preparing for retirement looks like, this can create conflict. That's especially true if one spouse feels like the other may be putting their plans at risk.

Kimberly-Clark Corporation (NASDAQ:KMB) is preparing **** et sales to address EU antitrust concerns surrounding its planned $40 billion acquisition of Kenvue, according to Reuters. The company is reportedly seeking to offer remedies that could secure European Commission approval by the September 29 deadline, avoiding a more extensive four-month investigation. Similar regulatory concerns have already emerged in Australia, where the deal received conditional approval after Kimberly-Clark agreed to divest Kenvue's Carefree and Stayfree brands.
The transaction is strategically important because it would create a consumer-health and personal-care company with approximately $32 billion of annual revenue and $7 billion of adjusted EBITDA. Kimberly-Clark Corporation (NASDAQ:KMB) expects about $1.9 billion of annual cost synergies and $500 million of revenue synergies, although it expects to invest roughly $2.5 billion in cash to achieve the cost savings. Therefore, the scale of any EU divestitures will be critical to determining whether Kimberly-Clark can retain the expected economic benefits of the deal.
The strongest bullish argument is that Kimberly-Clark Corporation (NASDAQ:KMB) is actively working toward a regulatory solution rather than allowing the EU review to threaten the transaction. If the company can satisfy regulators through limited **** et sales, it could preserve the majority of Kenvue's revenue and earnings while moving ahead with the combination. The expected $1.9 billion in annual cost savings represents a substantial earnings opportunity relative to the combined company's roughly $7 billion adjusted EBITDA target, giving Kimberly-Clark significant potential to improve margins and cash generation after integration.
The Australian precedent also suggests that targeted divestitures could be sufficient to resolve competition concerns without materially undermining the broader deal. Securing EU approval by September 29 would be particularly positive because it would remove a major source of uncertainty and allow Kimberly-Clark Corporation (NASDAQ:KMB) to focus on integration and synergy execution. With Kenvue adding major brands across consumer health and personal care, successful completion could also broaden Kimberly-Clark's portfolio and reduce its reliance on its existing product categories.
The biggest risk is that the EU requires more substantial **** et sales than Kimberly-Clark Corporation (NASDAQ:KMB) currently expects. Giving up attractive Kenvue brands or businesses in Europe could reduce the revenue and EBITDA acquired through the transaction, while Kimberly-Clark would still have to bear much of the financing, transaction, and integration burden. That could make the $40 billion purchase price less attractive on a risk-adjusted basis, particularly if the divested **** ets are among Kenvue's stronger European businesses.

OpenAI acquired Glass Imaging, a startup developing AI-powered smartphone camera technology, in a deal valued at over $300 million, according to The Wall Street Journal. The purchase price represents a significant jump from the roughly $100 million valuation Glass Imaging carried in a funding round last year.
Glass Imaging was founded in 2019 by Ziv Attar and Tom Bishop, two former Apple engineers who worked on the company's Portrait Mode feature. The Los Altos, California-based company had raised about $30 million from investors including GV, Alphabet's venture arm, and Insight Partners before the acquisition.
Glass Imaging's approach differs from conventional AI photo editing: instead of processing images after the fact, the company teaches neural networks the specific optical properties of each camera system so that picture quality is improved as the shot is taken, according to The Wall Street Journal. The company's goal is to produce image quality comparable to a DSLR camera from a smartphone. Its zoom-imaging technology was featured in a line of phones from Chinese smartphone brand Honor.
OpenAI's plans for Glass Imaging are unclear. The company is also developing a device with Jony Ive, the former Apple designer behind the iPhone. OpenAI brought on Ive in 2025 through its $6.5 billion purchase of io Products, and his responsibilities span hardware development alongside broader efforts to define how AI products will look and function.
A spokesperson for OpenAI had not provided a statement by the time of publication, according to TechCrunch. The company has made several other acquisitions recently, including an internet talk show called TBPN and an open-source developer tools startup, according to The Wall Street Journal. OpenAI is also preparing for an initial public offering expected next year.

Anthropic is moving forward with plans for an initial public offering that could value the company at $2 trillion, with signs pointing to the listing remaining on track, according to Bloomberg. Nasdaq has been selected as the venue for the listing, and Nvidia is reportedly weighing a contribution of around $10 billion to the offering.
Bloomberg reports Anthropic's annualized revenue at $65 billion, with the company's margins underpinned by investor confidence in where AI capabilities are headed rather than by today's cash generation.
The IPO comes as Anthropic chief executive officer Dario Amodei has published an essay calling on AI companies to manage the pace of frontier model development. Amodei's essay calls on firms "must slow the pace" of capability improvements, yet frames the goal as "a balanced rate" of progress, with the ****** urance that "progress will still seem fast," Bloomberg notes. When CFO Krishna Rao shared the piece on LinkedIn, his commentary centered on the themes of "pacing" and "common standards."
Anthropic is preparing to tell IPO investors that its potential revenue opportunity exceeds $30 trillion, according to The Wall Street Journal. The company more than doubled its revenue to $11.6 billion in the second quarter and could seek to raise as much as $100 billion in its offering — both figures that would surpass what ****** eX achieved when it went public in June at a $1.77 trillion valuation.
Investors have projected that Anthropic's annualized revenue will reach between $100 billion and $120 billion before year's end, representing more than tenfold growth from the $47 billion annualized revenue the company reported in May, according to the Financial Times as cited in earlier reporting. Morgan Stanley, Goldman Sachs, and JPMorgan are leading the offering. The company filed paperwork with the Securities and Exchange Commission in June.

Moscow is preparing for a final test of a new ballistic missile capable of striking targets hundreds of miles away and potentially maneuvering in ways that could challenge Ukraine's already strained air defenses, a defense ******* yst warned Monday.
The warning comes as Ukrainian military officials said that Russia could conduct the test in the coming months and potentially in live-fire strikes.
"According to our estimates, Russia plans to conduct final tests of a new type of ballistic missile with a range of up to 800 km by the end of this year," Vadym Skibitskyi, deputy head of the Defence Intelligence of Ukraine (DIU), said at a meeting of the Ukraine-NATO Interparliamentary Council, according to Ukrainian news outlet Ukrainska Pravda.
"If, for instance, this 800-kilometer missile has more advanced maneuverability, well then that's going to create greater problems for Ukraine in that they're going to need the more sophisticated interceptors to get them," Tom Karako, director of the Missile Defense Project at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, told Fox News Digital.
