This paper has been printing a U.S. drinks ban as still dated the 29th. [1] Friday is September 11. The 11th is not the 29th. A dated future ban is not in force today. Print the 29th. Do not print today.

No Friday acceleration of the 29th is in Washington copy, so the drinks ban remains dated the 29th and not today.
The 29th is still the 29th. Friday recap that treats September 11 as the ban date is a feed, not the calendar.
No Friday date-change is in the drinks file, so the 29th remains the dated ban.
The calendar has not jumped.
This edition will not invent a ban-today to fill a quiet Friday.
Friday is not the 29th.
