Article content Last month, a central Edmonton community was on edge after a home was destroyed by arson and notes were left demanding money. Jacqueline Petrie, who lives in the Cloverdale community, said many around the neighbourhood are “unsettled.” “People are rightfully frightened. They’re worried — how random is this, and how do you protect yourself, short of sitting awake in your house, monitoring the front and back of your home? You can do some things, but you can’t be vigilant 24-7,” Petrie told Postmedia last month. Police found handwritten notes at neighbouring homes demanding bitcoin money transfers, and investigators have since connected the notes to a similar fire in the Holyrood neighbourhood in September. Investigators believe these 24 arson cases aren’t related to Bitcoin extortions, or to the series of arson cases that are part of Project Gaslight — a string of arsons targeting homebuilders in Edmonton’s South Asian community, which police said have ties to India.

Bishop TD Jakes is in stable condition a day after suffering a medical emergency during a sermon — but the mega-church pastor is facing another hurdle related to sex abuse allegations. Jakes, 67, has filed a defamation lawsuit against Duane Youngblood, a fellow pastor who claimed Jakes tried to sexually assault him when he was 18 or 19 years old, The Post has learned. Youngblood made the explosive claims against the popular motivational speaker on an Oct. 27 episode of the “Larry Reid Live” podcast, alleging Jakes tried to groom him and also hugged and “tried to kiss” him. The younger pastor and his attorney Tyrone Blackburn, who represented Lil Rod in his lawsuit against Diddy — then demanded $6 million from Jakes “in order to resolve this matter quickly and privately” in a Nov. 15 legal filing. Youngblood said if Jakes didn’t cough up the cash, he’d sue him for sexual assault and harassment. Jakes instead opted to file a defamation suit against Youngblood in Pennsylvania federal court. In their filing, Jakes’ attorneys seemed to hint that the stress of the lawsuit might have contributed to his medical emergency on Sunday. “This lawsuit is intended to bring that scheme to a halt,” Jakes team wrote, “to end the extreme emotional, physical, and spiritual toll Defendants’ conduct has caused Bishop Jakes, to set the record straight so the world understands the patent falsity of the accusations, and to restore Bishop Jakes’s reputation.” “Bishop Jakes believes with all his heart that actual victims of sexual abuse should be treated with the utmost respect, kindness, empathy, and sympathy — and that true perpetrators of such abuse should be held accountable for their actions,” the filing continues. “But that is not the case here. Youngblood has used and abused the might of social media and the legal process to ... make knowingly false accusations for his own personal and financial gain.” Jakes’ team also pointed out that Youngblood is a registered sex offender in the state of Pennsylvania and is currently on parole. The Post has verified that Youngblood had previously pleaded guilty to sexually assaulting at least two teenage boys. He now claims to be reformed and even published a book, “Freedom from Homosexuality: No Longer Living the Lie.” An attorney for Youngblood did not immediately return The Post’s message. The motivational speaker — born Thomas Dexter Jakes — founded The Potters House, a “non-denominational, multicultural church,” in 1996. According to the church’s website , it has more than 30,000 members. With the lawsuit filed, Jakes’ team told The Post that he is continuing to undergo tests as he physically recuperates from Sunday’s incident. “At the conclusion of yesterday’s service, after ministering for nearly an hour and a half, Bishop Jakes experienced a moment that brought him face-to-face with his own humanity,” Jakes’ team said. “He is doing well and remains under medical supervision. Medical professionals have ruled out a stroke, but continue testing. Bishop James remains in good condition. We are grateful for continued prayers and outpouring of love and support.”Colorado is gearing up for the rugged Big 12 schedule, but first the Buffaloes wrap up their nonconference slate with two more games, starting Friday night when they host South Dakota State in Boulder, Colo. Colorado (7-2) has won two straight after competing in the Maui Invitational, most recently a 72-55 win over in-state rival Colorado State. Now the focus turns to South Dakota State and shoring up issues before conference play. "Defensively, we're understanding what our jobs are. Now, we're not where we need to be for sure," coach Tad Boyle said. "But we're making strides in that area. And I think the guys are getting used to playing with each other, understanding each other." The Buffaloes lost a lot of talent from last year's NCAA Tournament team but boast some quality players. Andrej Jakimovski (13.0 points per game), Julian Hammond III (12.3 ppg) and Elijah Moore (12.0 ppg) lead the team in scoring. Sophomore big man Bangot Dak has shown he can be a force after scoring a career-high 16 points in the win over Colorado State. The Jackrabbits (8-4) are coming off a 77-63 loss at Nevada on Wednesday night and complete a two-game trip in Boulder. South Dakota State is led by senior center Oscar Cluff, who tops the team in scoring (17.3 points) and rebounding (11.0) but had a subpar night against Nevada when he scored a season-low six points while battling an ankle injury. "I wish he was feeling a little better," coach Eric Henderson said of Cluff. "He's going to be fine, but he's still nursing that ankle a little bit." Freshman Joe Sayler is second on the team in scoring at 12.8 ppg and has reached double figures in each of the last three games. Sophomore Kalen Garry is third on the Jackrabbits in scoring at 9.6 per contest, an average that has been hurt by his last three games when he has averaged just 5.3 points. --Field Level Media
Ukraine relies on military and financial aid from international partners to sustain its military campaign, especially the U.S. and Europe. On Sunday, Donald Trump told NBC's "Meet the Press" that Ukraine will "possibly" receive less military aid once he takes office. After the election of Donald Trump and a Republican sweep of both chambers of Congress, the risk of the United States cutting its funding for Ukraine is a real possibility, stoking concerns among leaders in Europe on what it means for the ongoing conflict. > 24/7 San Diego news stream: Watch NBC 7 free wherever you are Trump has previously expressed he would end the war in Ukraine within 24 hours and has been vocally critical of funding the war-torn nation alongside hardline Republican congressmen, who almost blocked a critical aid package in April of this year . On Sunday, Trump told NBC's "Meet the Press" that Ukraine will "possibly" receive less military aid once he takes office. But according to experts that spoke to CNBC, there is reason to believe Europe, which is Ukraine's biggest donor, can make up the shortfall if the U.S. withdraws or tightens that funding. Ukraine relies on military and financial aid from international partners to sustain its military campaign, especially the U.S. and Europe. According to the Kiel Institute of Economy's Ukraine Support Tracker , which has been tracking funding to Ukraine since January 2022 up until October 2024, Europe has committed 241 billion euros ($255 billion) in aid and the U.S. has committed 119 billion euros. Out of this, Europe has actually allocated 125 billion euros and the U.S. 88 billion euros, thus far. Money Report European markets set to open lower as investors digest European Central Bank rate cut New AI winners beyond Big Tech are set to emerge, UK fund manager predicts Both Europe and the U.S. have provided "a comparable amount of military aid," Pietro Bomprezzi, the project lead of the Ukraine Support Tracker, told CNBC. As Ukraine's largest donor and neighbor, Europe would face the brunt of costs if U.S. aid runs out and isn't renewed under Trump. In the tracker's latest press update released last week, Christoph Trebesch, the head of the Ukraine Support Tracker, stated: "With the current funding due to end, all eyes are now on the incoming U.S. administration and its willingness to support Ukraine." European leaders have convened several times since the election to bolster support for Ukraine, with many countries doubling up on their commitments. Germany, which is Europe's biggest donor to Ukraine, has repeatedly reiterated its support for Ukraine and pledged further military aid on a surprise visit to Kyiv last week: "Ukraine can rely on Germany," Germany's Chancellor Olaf Scholz said. Hungary's Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, who has repeatedly blocked EU funding to Ukraine, offered a different tone last month, stating that Europe would not be able to fill in the gap financially if the U.S. withdraws aid. But according to analysts who spoke to CNBC, Europe can fill the gaps, and has several ways to do so. In its latest update on Dec. 5 , the Ukraine Support Tracker stated that the use of profits from frozen Russian assets, which are "primarily available to European donors," "could help them compensate for the loss of U.S. funds in the future." Jacob Funk Kirkegaard, a senior fellow at the Brussels-based Bruegel think tank, told CNBC that "making up for U.S. financial support for Ukraine would be very easy for the EU," by using instruments such as new common debt, bilateral donations, and seizing the 250 billion euro in frozen Russian assets and distributing them to Ukraine. Nigel Gould-Davis, a senior fellow for Russia and Eurasia at The International Institute for Strategic Studies, stated that seizing and distributing frozen Russian assets would be a "game changer." While the G7's $50 billion loan using interest payments from Russian assets is a small step in this direction, the EU can do more as it has full control over these assets. "At a stroke, if [the G7] had the will to do so, it could provide a huge slice of the aggressor's money and put it to defend Ukraine," Gould-Davis said. The main reason this hasn't been done is due to a fear among certain EU members on the financial consequences, he added. There are also other ways Europe can fill in the gaps. Kirkegaard mentioned the Danish model of financing Ukraine: Instead of sending over Western-made weapons, which are more expensive to produce, countries could directly finance Ukraine's military industrial complex. Even in the case of withdrawal of critical U.S. weaponry, Kirkegaard points out that they can still be purchased: European countries could agree to a trade deal, like China did in 2018, and agree to purchase American-made products, in this case weapons to supply to Ukraine in exchange for a relief on tariffs. It is "an entirely political choice" how much Europe devotes to defend itself and Ukraine, said Gould-Davies. He frames it as a balance of resources versus a balance of resolve — the balance of resources is in Europe's favor, but the balance of resolve is in Russia's: If Europe has the political will to make use of its advantage in resources, Ukraine's defense can greatly be bolstered. Max Bergman, the director of the Europe, Russia, and Eurasia Program at the Center for Strategic and International Studiesn told CNBC that while European countries are likely to increase aid in the case of U.S. withdrawal "it is unclear if Ukraine can survive the gap between the withdrawal of U.S. aid and the ramp up of European defense production." In the case that Europe didn't step up its aid in the case of U.S. withdrawal, Ukraine would lose the war: "The danger is that we see in Kyiv in 2026 what we saw in Kaboul in 2021 — a military collapse, leading to the end of Ukraine and Ukrainian democracy."

By JOSH DUBOW Josh Allen and Jameis Winston delivered signature performances in prime time that define their styles of play. Allen used his athleticism, creativity and a statistical quirk to become the first quarterback ever credited with a passing, rushing and receiving touchdown in the same game in Buffalo’s win over San Francisco. Winston showed off his propensity for big plays — and big blunders — when he became the first player ever to throw for at least 400 yards, four touchdowns and two pick-6s in the same game in a loss for Cleveland at Denver. It was a weekend of firsts for the two quarterbacks. It started on Dec. 1 when Allen took advantage of a peculiar rule of NFL stat-keeping to do something no quarterback had ever done. He threw a short pass to Amari Cooper, who was immediately wrapped up by two defenders. Allen alertly ran toward Cooper and signaled for the ball and Cooper obliged with a pitch. Allen then sprinted and dove in for a 7-yard touchdown on a pass he threw. That’s where the odd scoring comes in, with Cooper getting credit for a catch for minus-2 yards and Allen getting credit for 9 yards receiving, a receiving touchdown but no actual reception and a 7-yard TD pass. Allen became the second player this season to get credit for a receiving touchdown but no catch in a game, with Detroit’s Jahmyr Gibbs doing it following a lateral against Arizona in Week 3. It has happened only one other time in the Super Bowl era, with Allen Rice doing it in 1984 for Minnesota against Denver. Only three other players in NFL history got credit for a receiving touchdown on a pass they threw. with Marcus Mariota the most recent in the 2017 wild-card game for Tennessee against Kansas City when he caught his own deflected pass. Brad Johnson also scored when he caught his own deflected pass for Minnesota against Carolina in 1997, and Frank Ryan scored on a lateral for the Rams against Detroit in 1960. There was one other play where a player scored a TD following his own pass, according to Sportradar, with Roy Zimmerman doing it for the Eagles against the Giants in 1944 following a lateral. But under rules before 1950, Zimmerman was credited solely with a lateral touchdown. Allen later ran for a touchdown, becoming the seventh player in the Super Bowl era and first quarterback ever to get a passing, rushing and receiving TD in the same game. Winston, who created his own 30-30 club when he threw 33 TDs and 30 interceptions in 2019, had the kind of performance that has defined his high-risk, high-reward career. He threw for 497 yards with four TDs, three interceptions and two pick-6s. Winston became the first player in NFL history to throw for at least 400 yards and four TDs with two pick-6s. The Broncos had 171 yards on interception returns with the 668 yards combined on Winston’s passes setting an NFL record, according to OptaStats, topping the 664 by Vinny Testaverde for the Jets against Baltimore in 2000. Not that there was much doubt, but Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs are headed back to the postseason for a 10th straight season — one shy of the longest streak ever, held by New England from 2009-19. The Chiefs are off to an 11-1 start in their bid to be the first team ever to win three straight Super Bowls. Kansas City can clinch a ninth straight AFC West title with a win over the Chargers on Dec. 1. The Patriots are the only team with a longer streak, having won the division every year from 2009-19. Nine of the Chiefs’ 11 wins have come by seven points or fewer — one shy of the record set by the 1978 Houston Oilers. Kansas City’s plus-54 point differential is the worst of the 59 teams to start 11-1 or better. The Chiefs will be joined in the postseason again by the Buffalo Bills, who clinched their sixth straight playoff berth and fifth straight AFC East title. Their division-winning streak is tied for the seventh-longest streak ever, trailing only the Patriots and Chiefs, along with the Rams (1973-79), Pittsburgh (1974-79), Minnesota (1973-78) and Cleveland (1950-55). The Steelers have not clinched a playoff berth yet but are assured of not having a losing season for the record-tying 21st straight season. The only other team to do that was Dallas from 1965-85. Coach Mike Tomlin has been in charge for 18 of those seasons and has never finished with a losing record. The Chicago Bears are hoping to get the interim coach bump. Chicago fired Matt Eberflus after another late-game meltdown and promoted Thomas Brown to interim coach starting with a Dec. 8 game at San Francisco. Interim coaches have split their debuts this season, with Jeff Ulbrich losing his first game for the New York Jets and Darren Rizzi winning his debut for New Orleans. Over the last 10 seasons, teams have gotten a bump from changing coaches, with the interims going 13-11 in their first game. Those teams that fired coaches had posted a .284 winning percentage before the change. Eberflus’ tenure was one of the worst ever. He went 14-32 (.304) for the 13th-worst winning percentage ever among the 229 coaches with at least 45 games. He was at his worst in close games, with a 5-17 mark in games decided by seven points or fewer. The .227 winning percentage ranks last among the 221 coaches who have had at least 20 games decided by seven points or fewer. Joe Burrow and the Cincinnati Bengals keep scoring — and losing. The Bengals scored at least 33 points in a game for the sixth time this season on Dec. 1 but fell 44-38 to the Steelers. Cincinnati has lost four time this season when scoring 33 or more points, topping the 2017 Texans, 2002 Chiefs and 1985 Chargers for the most losses in a season when scoring that many points. Only eight quarterbacks other than Burrow have lost more than four starts in a career when their team scores at least 33 points, with former Dolphins QB Dan Marino’s eight the most. Burrow leads the NFL with 30 TD passes and 3,337 yards but the Bengals are only 4-8 thanks to a defense that has allowed 28.3 points per game.
