<p>A New York court on Thursday temporarily halted a state ban on the sale of flavoured e-cigarettes, giving the embattled vaping industry a breather just a day before the state's prohibition was due to take effect.</p>

<p>The appellate court ruling puts a hold on the ban that was announced by New York state's Democratic Governor Andrew Cuomo last month in response to widespread growing concern about the rising use of e-cigarettes among teens and a nationwide spate of lung illnesses.</p>

<p>The ban, which was due to start on Friday, will remain on ice until at least October&nbsp;18 when the Supreme Court in Albany is scheduled to hear the case brought by industry trade group Vapor Technology Association arguing for a preliminary injunction on the ban.</p>

<p>"We are very pleased with the New York State Appellate Division's decision, which acknowledges the strength of our claims about the State's executive overreach, and which preserves the ability of hundreds of small businesses to remain open and continue to serve their adult customers," Tony Abboud, executive director of the association said in an emailed statement.</p>

<p>New York Health Commissioner Howard Zucker said he remained confident the ban would eventually be enforced.</p>

<p>"Make no mistake: this is a public health emergency that demands immediate action to help ensure the wellbeing of our children, and we're confident that once the court hears our argument they will agree," Zucker said in a statement.</p>

<p>A handful of states have imposed or are eyeing similar bans as the crisis grows and the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends people stop using vaping products.</p>

<p>Governors in Michigan and Rhode Island have announced sales restrictions, while Massachusetts imposed an outright ban for four months while it examined potential new regulations. Ohio's state governor this week urged lawmakers to pass a ban.</p>

<p>US&nbsp;health officials earlier on Thursday reported <a href="https://www.wionews.com/videos/us-vaping-related-deaths-rise-to-18-illnesses-surpass-1000-cdc-253614">18 deaths due to a mysterious lung illness linked to e-cigarettes </a>and other vaping products and said the number of confirmed and probable cases of the condition now exceeds 1,000.</p>

<p>The US&nbsp;Federal Trade Commission also on Thursday ordered several e-cigarette companies, including Juul Labs Inc and Nu Mark, to turn over sales and advertising data, in the first sign of a likely probe of their marketing practices. Tobacco giant Altria Group Inc owns Nu-Mark and has a 35 per cent&nbsp;stake in Juul.</p>

<p>Abboud noted that New York state lawmakers had already raised the minimum age for the purchase of vapour products from 18 to 21 from November and imposed a tax increase.</p>

<p>He said the lobby group was ready to work with officials "to achieve the twin goals of restricting youth vaping, which already is illegal, and preserving flavoured alternatives for adults desperately trying to quit smoking."</p>

<p>The New York State Department of Health had pledged to provide retailers with a two-week grace period before conducting site visits to enforce the ban on all flavoured e-cigarettes besides tobacco and menthol.</p>

<p>Calling Pakistan "terroristan", External Affair Minister S Jaishankar has said that New Delhi can't talk to a <a href="https://www.wionews.com/india-news/india-not-shying-away-from-talks-with-pakistan-pm-modi-tells-donald-trump-in-new-york-251839">country that sponsors terror</a> and uses it as a state policy.</p>

<p>Speaking at Asia Society in New York, Jaishankar said, "They have to accept the model which they have built for themselves no longer works. You cannot in this day and age, conduct policy using terrorism as a legitimate instrument of statecraft, that is at the heart of the issue. We have no problem in&nbsp;talking to Pakistan, we have a problem talking to terroristan."</p>

<p>Jaishankar further said Pakistan's reaction towards India removing special status for Jammu and Kashmir on August 5 is of "anger and frustration" since the country has "created an entire industry of terrorism to deal with Kashmir issue. It is bigger than that, they created for India" and they "now see an investment of 70 years undercut if this policy succeed".&nbsp;</p>

<p>Pakistan, in the aftermath of India's decision to remove special status, has raked up the issue globally but hasn't got any attraction.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Jaishankar urged Pakistan to do "something for its own good, if it does that it would enable normal neighbourly relation with India."&nbsp;</p>

<p>Highlighting the issue of cross border terrorism emanating from Pakistan, Jaishankar said, "The issue between India and Pakistan, it's not like we agree on everything else, we have a wonderful relationship and there is Kashmir issue. We had an attack in Mumbai, the last time I checked Mumbai was not part of Kashmir. If Pakistani terrorist can attack states and regions, we need to recognise there is a bigger problem".</p>

<p>Explaining further Jaishankar said, "The problem is in the mindset. Every time there is a change of government, look it's new, I have nothing to do with earlier guys, it's all their fault. Point is, there is a fundamental issue which they need to understand, and we need to encourage them to do, that is to do away with terrorism. They know where the camps are. Anyone knows where the camps are, just google that."</p>

'Memories from Houston': PM Modi gifts framed photograph from 'Howdy, Modi' to Trump

<p>Joe Walsh and Bill Weld, two of the three Republicans challenging President Donald Trump for their party's 2020 presidential nomination, are set to meet in a debate on Tuesday, hoping to bring attention to their long-shot candidacies.</p>

<p><a href="https://www.wionews.com/world/donald-trump-says-hassan-rouhani-meeting-not-scheduled-as-speculation-swirls-251612">Trump </a>will not take part in the event in New York hosted by the website Business Insider, nor will the third candidate seeking the Republican nomination, former South Carolina governor and congressman Mark Sanford.</p>

<p>The debate featuring Walsh, a radio talk-show host and former US congressman from Illinois, and Weld, a former Massachusetts governor, is not sanctioned by the Republican Party, which has thrown its full support behind Trump. Sanford cited a scheduling conflict for missing the event.</p>

<p>Walsh, Weld and Sanford, in a joint article published in the Washington Post this month, called Trump "a serial self-promoter" who is steering the party away from "personal responsibility, fiscal sanity, and rule of law."</p>

<p>Trump is expected to coast to victory in his quest for the Republican nomination before facing the Democratic Party's nominee in the November 2020 election. A Sept. 16-20 Reuters/Ipsos poll showed that 82 per cent of registered Republicans approved of Trump's job performance.</p>

<p>Walsh, Weld, and Sanford complained about being shut out of the nomination contest. Republican Party officials in Alaska, Arizona, Kansas, Nevada and South Carolina already have said they would not host nominating contests in their states next year, cutting off any chance for the challengers to win delegates who will choose the Republican candidate at the party's convention.</p>

<p>"We're in the process of doing serious and lasting harm to the Republican Party brand," Sanford told Reuters on Friday. "We need to stand up and have a robust conversation about what it means to be Republicans."</p>

<p>Trump has dismissed his challengers as a "joke" and "laughingstock," calling them the "Three Stooges," a reference to a popular mid-20th-century comedy team that portrayed inept bunglers.</p>

<p>Asked to explain Trump's decision not to participate in the debate, Erin Perrine, a deputy communications director for the Trump campaign, said, "Pointless."</p>

<p>Walsh, 57, served in the House of Representatives for two years and then became a radio talk-show host. Weld, 74, touts a fiscally conservative record as well as his work on gay rights and environmental issues. He ran unsuccessfully for vice president in 2016 on the Libertarian Party's ticket</p>
