This paper has been printing a U.S. drinks ban as still dated the 29th. [1] Sunday is September 13. The 13th is not the 29th. A dated future ban is not in force today. Print the 29th. Do not print today.

No Sunday 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. Sunday recap that treats September 13 as the ban date is a feed, not the calendar.
No Sunday date-change is in the drinks file, so the 29th remains the dated ban.
A ban dated the 29th is still dated the 29th. September 13 is not that day, whatever the calendar pressure.
The calendar has not jumped.
Logistics calendars don't jump; Sunday's doesn't.

Drinks bans bite distributors first and drinkers last; the supply chain absorbs the shock in stages. September 29 gives importers two weeks to reroute. Calendars are logistics.

Two weeks of reroutes start now; Sunday starts them. Starting is logistics. The 29th keeps.

Importers have two weeks, not today. Drinkers meet the shock last. Sunday does not empty the shelves.

Washington still dates the drinks ban to the 29th, not to September 13. Importers have two weeks on the calendar to reroute. Drinkers sit last in that chain, and no Sunday store run is the ban. This paper does not print the 13th as day one.
The 13th is not day one. Sunday does not empty the shelves. Drinkers meet the shock last.

The 13th is not day one. Sunday does not empty the shelves. Drinkers meet the shock last.
