(AP) — Toyota said Thursday it will build a new paint facility as part of a $922 million investment at its factory complex in Georgetown, Kentucky, making it the second big addition announced this year at the automaker’s largest global manufacturing plant. In February, the company said it would at its Kentucky complex, in part so it can build an all-new three-row electric SUV to be sold in the U.S. Neither project will add any new jobs at the facility, which now employs about 10,000 workers. However, the investments reinforce Toyota’s commitment to long-term job stability, the company said. The new paint facility, scheduled to open in 2027, will add 1 million square feet of capacity while decreasing carbon emissions by 30% and water usage by 1.5 million gallons per year, Toyota said. It will enable the company to offer more diverse color options for its vehicles, the company said. “Toyota’s commitment to advanced paint technologies goes beyond aesthetics,” said Kerry Creech, president of Toyota Kentucky. “It encompasses efficiency, sustainability and quality, leading the industry in environmentally responsible manufacturing.” The project also will increase flexibility for future vehicle production and advances Toyota’s goal to achieve zero carbon emissions by 2050, the automaker said. Toyota’s investment in the Bluegrass State has surpassed $11 billion since breaking ground at the central Kentucky site in 1986. Georgetown is 16 miles (26 kilometers) north of Lexington, Kentucky. The Associated PressThe hardest movie ticket to get this weekend was for a film audiences have been able to watch at home for years: Christopher Nolan’s “Interstellar.” The science fiction epic starring Matthew McConaughey and Anne Hathaway earned $4.5 million from only 166 screens in the U.S. and Canada. Its 70mm IMAX film presentations sold out in minutes, leaving theaters scrambling to add more and people paying up to $300 on the re-sale market. Those 10 film screens alone had a staggering $70,000 per theater average, one of the highest of the year and usually the bragging rights of acclaimed arthouse movies playing on only four screens. Ten years after “Interstellar” was given a film release as a special exception at time when its studio, Paramount, was committing to a digital future, film is not only back but driving audiences to theaters. “I was just so gratified by the response,” Nolan said in an exclusive interview with The Associated Press. “It’s really thrilling when people respond to your work at any point. But 10 years later, to have new audiences coming and experiencing it in the way that we’d originally intended it on the big IMAX screens and in particular on those IMAX film prints? It’s really rewarding to see that it continues to have a life.” “Interstellar” had been a labor of love, with Nolan fighting against the tides of a changing industry to use film, certain of its value. Like McConaughey’s Cooper, an astronaut clinging to skills that were all but obsolete in his dust bowl reality, “Interstellar” was made by a celluloid-loving filmmaker when the format was least valued. “Celluloid film was very threatened. Digital was taking over everything,” Nolan said. “We put an enormous amount of work and effort into the IMAX 70mm film format release at the time feeling like we didn’t know how much longer we’d be able to do that.” During its time, “Interstellar” was received warmly and an unambiguous success, but it also had its detractors. Its five Oscar nominations and win were all for crafts. And yet in the decade since, “Interstellar” has become beloved, a true classic. Nolan observed that it was the film that people kept wanting to talk about, telling him what it meant to them and asking if it was ever going to be re-released. Those grand emotions and sentimental themes of love, family and exploration that were a liability with some are now its most cherished qualities. “A lot of these people were younger people who, it was clear to me, had seen the film in the home and hadn’t had the chance to see it on the big screen,” Nolan said. While there have been “Interstellar” rereleases internationally, in China and at the Science Museum in London, Nolan saw an opportunity and spoke to IMAX and Paramount, now under a new regime, about a proper North American re-release for its 10th anniversary. The prints, Nolan said, hadn't aged a day. IMAX hardly needed convincing: They’ve had the anniversary date circled on the calendar. For years, “Interstellar” was by far the biggest request on their social channels. “We saw this coming from the beginning,” IMAX CEO Rich Gelfond said. “It reminded us in a small way of the frenzy around ‘Oppenheimer.’ But the result is far beyond our expectations." “Interstellar” is now the ninth highest-grossing IMAX release of all time and is closing in on eight (currently occupied by “The Last Jedi.”) The company is currently exploring options for re-releases in different territories. The “Oppenheimer" effect was real in redeeming film's value for the business. IMAX screens accounted for some 20% of the nearly $1 billion this year's Oscar best picture winner made globally (it ranks at No. 5 for IMAX). While filmmakers have long cherished film stock, “Oppenheimer” had studios, distributors and theaters taking note of the demand. Earlier this year the film showings of “Dune: Part Two” were sold out for four weeks. And there's more to come: Ryan Coogler's new film “Sinners," opening in March 2025, was shot with IMAX cameras. The “Interstellar” release was fairly “low key" when it came to promotion, but it also didn’t need much — fans made sure of that. Before IMAX had even announced that tickets were on sale, some noticed that AMC had made them available. News spread on socials and overnight every 70mm IMAX showing at the Lincoln Square location in New York had sold out. It wasn’t just the “primetime” slots either: The 1 AM showtimes were at capacity too. After the weekend's turnout surpassed expectations, they added more 70mm IMAX screenings through the week which also filled up quickly. While Nolan is in some ways an anomaly, as the rare filmmaker whose name alone can draw crowds for original fare, there are lessons to be learned from the weekend. “It just shows our industry once again that audiences truly understand the difference between a communal, big screen theatrical experience that they crave even on films that they’ve had the opportunities to see in the home,” Nolan said. “That theatrical experience that we all know and love is so powerful and so exciting. It’s a very clear demonstration of it, especially coming amidst all the great successes right now, “Wicked,”“Gladiator II,”“Moana 2.” "Audiences are coming out in droves for that experience that we all love so much.” Before the weekend, Nolan was able to see the film again on the big screen for the first time since the original release, accompanied by his Oscar-winning “Oppenheimer” cinematographer Hoyte van Hoytema. “Interstellar” was their first collaboration and Hoytema’s introduction to IMAX cameras (where he proved that they could be handheld if you tried hard enough). “It was really, really fun," Nolan said. He also approved the new 4K UHD “Interstellar" set that's now available. Since “Oppenheimer's" big night at the Oscars and Nolan's best director win, there's been much speculation about his next film with near daily rumors circulating about casting and genre, none of which have been officially confirmed. It's not something he's speaking publicly about yet. One thing he will say, however, is that he’s in the throes of intensive testing for a new film technology with IMAX to use in the next production. “They have an incredible engineering staff, really brilliant minds doing extraordinary work,” he said. “It’s wonderful to see innovation in the celluloid film arena still happening and happening at the highest level possible.” And he’s still making time to go to the movies Over the weekend, Nolan went to see “Wicked” at a theater in Burbank where he also peeked into one of the IMAX presentations of his film. “It was pretty magical to see a full house on that film,” he said. “It was a very special thing to see, 10 years later.”Recently, a controversy has erupted as parents have accused a local school of using scrap cloth as the filling material in the winter school uniforms provided to students.

NEW YORK (AP) — The man charged with killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson was not a client of the medical insurer and may have targeted it because of its size and influence, a senior police official said Thursday. NYPD Chief of Detectives Joseph Kenny told NBC New York in an interview Thursday that investigators have uncovered evidence that Luigi Mangione had prior knowledge UnitedHealthcare was holding its annual investor conference in New York City. Mangione also mentioned the company in a note found in his possession when he was detained by police in Pennsylvania. “We have no indication that he was ever a client of United Healthcare, but he does make mention that it is the fifth largest corporation in America, which would make it the largest healthcare organization in America. So that’s possibly why he targeted that company,” said Kenny. UnitedHealthcare is in the top 20 largest U.S. companies by market capitalization but is not the fifth largest. It is the largest U.S. health insurer. Mangione remains jailed without bail in Pennsylvania, where he was arrested Monday after being spotted at a McDonald's in the city of Altoona, about 230 miles (about 370 kilometers) west of New York City. His lawyer there, Thomas Dickey, has said Mangione intends to plead not guilty. Dickey also said he has yet to see evidence decisively linking his client to the crime. Mangione's arrest came five days after the caught-on-camera killing of Thompson outside a Manhattan hotel. Police say the shooter waited outside the hotel, where the health insurer was holding its investor conference, early on the morning of Dec. 4. He approached Thompson from behind and shot him before fleeing on a bicycle through Central Park. Mangione is fighting attempts to extradite him back to New York so that he can face a murder charge in Thompson's killing. A hearing has been scheduled for Dec. 30. The 26-year-old, who police say was found with a “ ghost gun ” matching shell casings found at the site of the shooting, is charged in Pennsylvania with possession of an unlicensed firearm, forgery and providing false identification to police. Mangione is an Ivy League graduate from a prominent Maryland real estate family. In posts on social media, Mangione wrote about experiencing severe chronic back pain before undergoing a spinal fusion surgery in 2023. Afterward, he posted that the operation had been a success and that his pain had improved and mobility returned. He urged others to consider the same type of surgery. On Wednesday, police said investigators are looking at his writings about his health problems and his criticism of corporate America and the U.S. health care system . Kenny said in the NBC interview that Mangione's family reported him missing to San Francisco authorities in November.WHEELING, W.Va. , Dec. 11, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- WesBanco, Inc.

[CHOI KI-WOONG] The National Assembly is set to vote on a second impeachment motion against President Yoon Suk Yeol at 4 p.m. Saturday. “As it is a matter of national importance and gravity, considering the need for thorough discussion within each party and potential delays, we scheduled the plenary session at 4 p.m.," the spokesperson for National Assembly Speaker Woo Won-shik said Friday. To pass, the impeachment motion requires a two-thirds majority in the 300-member National Assembly, or 200 votes. The liberal bloc, led by the Democratic Party (DP), holds 192 eligible members, meaning at least eight lawmakers from the president's People Power Party (PPP) must break ranks to support the motion. The vote will be conducted by secret ballot, raising the possibility of defections from the PPP.

Kim Sang-wook of the president's People Power Party urges his fellow lawmakers to join the impeachment of President Yoon Suk Yeol in front of the main hall of the National Assembly in western Seoul on Friday, as another PPP lawmaker walks past him. [KIM SEONG-RYONG] As of Friday, seven PPP lawmakers had publicly declared their intention to support impeachment. “I will vote in favor of impeachment on Saturday, and I know several colleagues who feel the same way," a PPP lawmaker, aligned with party leader Han Dong-hoon, told the JoongAng Ilbo, an affiliate of the Korea JoongAng Daily, anonymously on Friday. The growing dissent within the PPP is attributed to Han's sudden endorsement of impeachment on Thursday and the backlash against Yoon’s same-day address, where he defended his failed attempt to impose martial law last week. Even Rep. Kweon acknowledged that "many expect" more than eight lawmakers to vote in favor. The liberal bloc filed the second impeachment motion on Friday afternoon, focusing on the unconstitutional nature of the president's short-lived martial law declaration. The second motion has omitted earlier accusations that were made in the first attempt, filed on Dec. 4. These included first lady Kim Keon Hee’s alleged stock manipulation and interference in election nominations through a power broker, as well as criticisms of Yoon’s "value diplomacy," which has been seen as dismissive of China and Russia while favoring Japan.

Special counsel Jack Smith filed a motion Monday in a Washington, D.C., federal court to dismiss all four felony charges against President-elect Donald Trump related to alleged interference in the 2020 election. “The Government’s position on the merits of the defendant’s prosecution has not changed.

Democratic Florida Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz has torn into President-elect ’s new attorney general nominee for being a “lackey.” “This is someone who is clearly a Trump apologist, a Trump lackey,” said Wasserman Schultz told on Friday during CNN’s . “That’s what he wants as AG.” Admitting to a small degree of relief at ’s withdrawal from Trump’s “chaos cabinet,” a Wasserman Schultz said at least Bondi “does have the requisite experience,” as the Sunshine State’s former attorney general of eight years. “But she comes with the heaviness of having been a massive election denier,” she added. “You know, she did some good things for consumer protection, did some pretty good lawsuits that brought resources back for people who’d been wronged in the state of Florida,” said Wasserman Schultz. “So we’ll see how the Senate looks at it, but it’s a heck of a lot better than Matt Gaetz.” Not a particularly high bar given that Gaetz dropped his bid for top prosecutor’s spot this week amid an unmitigated political firestorm prompted by an unreleased House Ethics Committee report. Having served on Trump’s transition team ahead of his first presidency, Bondi has for attorney general following the ouster of Jeff Sessions in 2018, though the role eventually went to Bill Barr instead. She was nevertheless later instrumental in Trump’s defense during his first impeachment trial for obstructing congressional investigations two years later, as well as pushing still-unproven Republican allegations of President Joe Biden’s involvement in a corruption scheme with his son, Hunter. Wasserman Schultz also noted that Bondi was Florida’s attorney general when she nearly joined a 2013 lawsuit against Trump University for fraud. The lawsuit was brought forth by New York’s attorney general, but Bondi ultimately chose not to pursue the action after receiving $25,000 from a charitable foundation run by the Trump family, reported the .Palantir Technologies ( PLTR -3.72% ) has been one of the biggest winners on the stock market this year. The data fusion specialist is up a whopping 379% year to date as of Dec. 26. The company has established itself as a leader in artificial intelligence (AI) software thanks to its new AI platform, and it's experiencing strong growth in both government contracts and commercial business. Palantir has now delivered five straight quarters of accelerating revenue growth and eight straight quarters of expanding operating margins, showing that the business is rapidly gaining leverage. Along the way, the company has turned profitable on a generally accepted accounting principles ( GAAP ) basis and gained admission into the S&P 500 ( ^GSPC -1.11% ) . However, Palantir's stock price has grown much faster than the underlying business. As a result, its valuation has ballooned. The stock trades at a sky-high price-to-sales ratio of 75, meaning that extremely high expectations are now priced into Palantir's market value. Recently, shares have soared following a strong third-quarter earnings report and the election of Donald Trump, which has increased hopes of spending on government defense and intelligence in the next administration, boosting Palantir's bottom line. More recently, investors responded well to news that Palantir was teaming up with defense tech start-up Anduril to start a consortium to bid on defense contracts, challenging traditional leaders like Lockheed Martin , RTX , and Boeing . In other words, Palantir has soared in large part due to improving sentiment, but in order for the stock to keep climbing or maintain its gains, it will have to continue to accelerate its revenue growth. It will take a long time for the stock to grow into its lofty valuation if revenue growth continues at 30% or slows from there. Therefore, revenue growth looks like the most important metric driving Palantir's stock price growth. Keep your eye on that metric going forward, as it will likely determine whether the stock continues to climb in 2025.

By allowing baseless rumors to circulate unchecked, we are contributing to a toxic online environment that breeds fear, mistrust, and division among its members.

VB Prabhu Verlekar Q Our litigation cases in all Courts at different levels are swelling, thereby denying timely justice to public as also affecting ease of doing business. We are inviting suggestions from various stake holders of Society to present to Central Government as also Supreme Court. With your experience, do you have any suggestions to make? Secretary, Young Advocates Forum (Goa Branch) Presently over 4.5 crores cases are pending in various Courts. At the present rate of disposal, it will take 324 years to dispose without considering new additions as per the Niti Aayog report. This great challenge cannot be solved only by increasing number of courts, judges, court infrastructure, three-shift courts, virtual courts, alternate dispute resolution mechanism, restricting adjournments or any other method unless high level sophisticated AI Technology tools like Chat GPT is used extensively in drafting court judgements by feeding basic facts, arguments submitted and cases cited by both the parties. The draft of the order will be ready within 10 minutes after considering all the judgements available on the subject in the web space. The judges can make changes after going through the draft and then sign the judgement order. For feeding the data, trained law graduates can be used. Initially Chat GPT can be used for straight forward disputes like bail, negotiable instrument claims, debt recoveries, consent decrees, ompensation claims etc. For this, judges, court clerks should be trained to use the tool effectively by holding, prompt engineering, workshops for drafting quality judgements. For criminal cases, day and night camp courts should be setup in jails and poor under trial prisoners for petty offences should be released with minor punishments. Argentina and Colombia Courts effectively use Chat GPT tool. Young junior judges should try this tool and see the fantastic results. Q. We are running a hospital. Before we discharge a patient he is required to make payment of hospital charges in full in cash since receiving payment by cheques is risky. Very often payment runs into lakhs. Are there any restrictions to receive payment in cash as per the Income Tax Act? Health Care Givers, Belgaum. Hospitals in India can accept payments in cash from patients under Income Tax Act. However, there are certain restrictions and compliance requirements. Under Section 269 ST no person can receive an amount of Rs. 2 lakh or more in cash from a single person in a day or in respect of a single transaction. Therefore, if your hospital receives cash from a patient exceeding Rs 2 lakhs in violation of this provision, the hospital may have to pay 100 per cent penalty on the amount received. Also note that you are required to obtain PAN number from the patient making cash payments of Rs 50,000 or more and report this to the tax authorities as per IT Rules. Q.

Mr Carter, a former peanut farmer, served one term in the White House between 1977 and 1981, taking over in the wake of the Watergate scandal and the end of the Vietnam War. After his defeat by Ronald Reagan, he spent his post-presidency years as a global humanitarian, winning the Nobel Peace Prize in 2002. His death on Sunday was announced by his family and came more than a year after he decided to enter hospice care. He was the longest-lived US president. Our founder, former U.S. President Jimmy Carter, passed away this afternoon in Plains, Georgia. pic.twitter.com/aqYmcE9tXi — The Carter Center (@CarterCenter) December 29, 2024 His son, Chip Carter, said: “My father was a hero, not only to me but to everyone who believes in peace, human rights and unselfish love. “My brothers, sister and I shared him with the rest of the world through these common beliefs. “The world is our family because of the way he brought people together, and we thank you for honouring his memory by continuing to live these shared beliefs.” World leaders have paid tribute to Mr Carter, including US President Joe Biden, who was one of the first politicians to endorse Mr Carter for president in 1976 and said the world had “lost an extraordinary leader, statesman and humanitarian”. He said: “Over six decades, we had the honour of calling Jimmy Carter a dear friend. But, what’s extraordinary about Jimmy Carter, though, is that millions of people throughout America and the world who never met him thought of him as a dear friend as well. “With his compassion and moral clarity, he worked to eradicate disease, forge peace, advance civil rights and human rights, promote free and fair elections, house the homeless, and always advocate for the least among us. “He saved, lifted, and changed the lives of people all across the globe.” Irish President Michael D Higgins said Mr Carter was “a principled man who dedicated his life to seeking to advance the cause of peace across the world”. He added: “On behalf of the people of Ireland, may I express my sympathies to President Carter’s children and extended family, to President Joe Biden, to the people of the United States, and to his wide circle of colleagues and friends across the globe.” Mr Carter is expected to receive a state funeral featuring public observances in Atlanta and Washington DC before being buried in his home town of Plains, Georgia. A moderate democrat born in Plains in October 1924, Mr Carter’s political career took him from the Georgia state senate to the state governorship and finally, the White House, where he took office as the 39th president. His presidency saw economic disruption amid volatile oil prices, along with social tensions at home and challenges abroad including the Iranian revolution that sparked a 444-day hostage crisis at the US embassy in Tehran. But he also brokered the Camp David Accords between Egypt and Israel, which led to a peace treaty between the two countries in 1979. After his defeat in the 1980 presidential election, he worked for more than four decades leading the Carter Centre, which he and his late wife Rosalynn co-founded in 1982 to “wage peace, fight disease, and build hope”. Under his leadership, the Carter Center managed to virtually eliminate Guinea Worm disease, which has gone from affecting 3.5 million people in Africa and Asia in 1986 to just 14 in 2023. Mrs Carter, who died last year aged 96, had played a more active role in her husband’s presidency than previous first ladies, with Mr Carter saying she had been “my equal partner in everything I ever accomplished”. Earlier this year, on his 100th birthday, Mr Carter received a private congratulatory message from the King, expressing admiration for his life of public service.Toronto Blue Jays officially sign reliever Garcia to two-year, US$15M deal

Washington, DC: A major divide has emerged within Donald Trump's MAGA team in the United States, as Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy who advocated for the expansion of the visa program for 'highly skilled workers' faced heavy backlash from within President-elect's base, CNN reported. Musk and Ramaswamy -- both foreign origin leaders heading Trump's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) -- have reignited the debate on H-1B visas, while reflecting a divide over immigration policy as Trump prepares to assume office. In a series of posts on X (formerly Twitter), Musk emphasised the importance of attracting top engineering talent to maintain America's technological edge. "The number of people who are super talented engineers AND super motivated in the USA is far too low." No, we need more like double that number yesterday! The number of people who are super talented engineers AND super motivated in the USA is far too low. Think of this like a pro sports team: if you want your TEAM to win the championship, you need to recruit top talent wherever... "Think of this like a pro sports team: If you want your TEAM to win the championship, you need to recruit top talent wherever they may be. That enables the whole TEAM to win," Musk wrote. He further elaborated, "I am referring to bringing in via legal immigration the top ~0.1 per cent of engineering talent as being essential for America to keep winning." "Thinking of America as a pro sports team that has been winning for a long time and wants to keep winning is the right mental construct," the Trump-aide added. Vivek Ramaswamy Echoes Elon Musk's Sentiments Ramaswamy, a first-generation American and Trump's appointee to lead the Department of Government Efficiency, echoed Musk's sentiments. He argued that cultural stagnation and a preference for mediocrity have led to a reliance on foreign-born talent. Citing examples from 1990s sitcoms, Ramaswamy remarked, "Our American culture has venerated mediocrity over excellence for way too long (at least since the 90s and likely longer). That doesn't start in college, it starts YOUNG. A culture that celebrates the prom queen over the math olympiad champ, or the jock over the valedictorian, will not produce the best engineers." Musk and Ramaswamy's support for foreign workers has drawn sharp criticism from Trump loyalists who prioritise curbing immigration. Figures such as Laura Loomer, Ann Coulter, and former Congressman Matt Gaetz expressed their displeasure, accusing the two of undermining the "America First" ethos. Gaetz posted on X, "We did not ask them to engineer an immigration policy." Former US Ambassador Nikki Haley Weighs In Former UN Ambassador Nikki Haley also weighed in, opposing their stance. Haley, who has advocated for prioritising American workers, stated, "There is nothing wrong with American workers or American culture. All you have to do is look at the border and see how many want what we have. We should be investing and prioritising in Americans, not foreign workers." About The H-1B Visa Program Notably, the H-1B visa program allows highly skilled foreign workers to enter the US, filling roles often in the technology sector. Proponents argue the program enhances American competitiveness by addressing the talent shortage in critical industries. Critics, however, worry that reliance on foreign workers undermines opportunities for American citizens, reported CNN. During Trump's first term, the administration imposed restrictions on H-1B visas, citing concerns over abuse and economic strain. In 2016, Trump condemned the program, describing it as a means for companies to replace American workers with lower-paid foreign employees. Restrictions tightened further in 2020 in response to economic challenges caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the President-elect has recently signalled a shift, suggesting that foreign nationals graduating from US universities should be granted permanent residency. "What I want to do, and what I will do, is - you graduate from a college, I think you should get automatically, as part of your diploma, a green card to be able to stay in this country," Trump said during a podcast interview earlier this year. Debate Draws Bipartisan Attention The debate has drawn bipartisan attention. Colorado Governor Jared Polis commended Musk and Ramaswamy for acknowledging the value of immigrant entrepreneurs. "There are millions of Americans that work for companies that were founded by immigrants. Those jobs wouldn't exist today if we didn't let those immigrants in," Polis said. However, he also highlighted the importance of lower-skilled immigrant labour in sectors like agriculture and construction, urging a balanced approach. As Trump's administration takes shape, the contrasting viewpoints on immigration policy reveal deeper ideological divisions within his coalition. While figures like Musk and Ramaswamy advocate for leveraging global talent to bolster the economy, others in Trump's orbit remain steadfast in their calls to prioritise American labour and restrict immigration, according to CNN. Musk's rising influence within Trump's circle has not gone unnoticed. Following his opposition to a bipartisan government funding bill, Democrats have labelled Musk "President Musk," suggesting his sway over Trump's policy agenda. Trump has dismissed these claims, stating, "No, he's not taking the presidency. I like having smart people. They're on a new kick. 'Russia, Russia, Russia,' 'Ukraine, Ukraine, Ukraine,' all the different hoaxes. The new one is 'President Trump has ceded the presidency to Elon Musk.' No, no, that's not happening."

Roy Keane was scathing in his assessment of Marcus Rashford as he claimed his "general play as a footballer is shocking". The forward came off the bench for Manchester United as they were well beaten at Arsenal , who secured a 2-0 victory on Wednesday night. Rashford was introduced by Ruben Amorim with the visitors chasing the game, but he was unable to impact the scoreline. Rashford was back in the goals on Sunday against Everton , but couldn't influence the game at the Emirates as he largely underwhelmed. He misplaced passes and that eventually led to some brutal criticism from Keane. The former United captain, who was watching the game live on the Overlap, said: "I’ll tell you something, Marcus Rashford came on there. His general play as a footballer is shocking. "Watch his header there. Have United’s subs given anything since coming on? Nothing. The subs have done nothing. Manchester United deserve nothing anyway. They were rubbish. You know what happens with United? They fool you, they fool you. They’re not dynamic." Rashford has seen his form peak and drop off throughout his time in Manchester. Having previously hit 30 goals in a season the striker has endured a notable decline since then and is under pressure to produce and prove he has a role to play under the new regime. Keane recently said on the forward: "He never looks like he's enjoying it that much. That's the biggest worry for me. Listen, we can all be moody and when you're playing the game obviously you're under pressure. The attacking players, score goals, and getting assists. Even when he scores, everything's a bit of a chore to him." Rashford's form - or lack of - has seen him drop out of the England picture and he didn't go to the Euros in the summer. This term he's scored seven times but needs to outline to Ruben Amorim that he is deserving of a regular spot in a new look system. Keane said on United's overall performance: "I’m really disappointed with Manchester United. I thought the players were going through the motions a little bit. It was easy for Arsenal. The first half was fine but I was expecting a bit more. The manager’s probably thinking he thought United were a bit better than this. I was getting really frustrated at the end there."

Defending national champion South Carolina women defeated by UCLA 77-62 for their first loss since the 2023 Final FourApple is planning to switch to a homegrown chip for Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connections for its devices starting next year, a move that will phase out some parts currently supplied by Broadcom, Bloomberg News reported on Thursday. The chip, code-named Proxima, has been under development for several years and is now slated to go into the first iPhones and smart home devices produced in 2025, the report said, citing people familiar with the matter. The iPhone maker's in-house chips will be produced by Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co, the report added. At its annual developer conference in June, Apple said that it plans to use its own server chips to help power artificial intelligence features on its devices. The move is separate from Apple's reported plans to launch its long-awaited series of cellular modem chips next year, which will replace components from longtime partner Qualcomm, the report added. However, the two parts will eventually work together, Bloomberg said on Thursday. Apple did not immediately respond to Reuters' request for comment. The company is working with Broadcom to develop its first server chip, which is internally code-named Baltra, specifically designed for AI processing, the Information reported on Wednesday. The iPhone maker, along with some other big technology companies, has found it hard to cut reliance on Nvidia's pricey and short-in-supply processors despite in-house efforts to develop their own chips to power compute-heavy AI services. Last year, Broadcom, a major supplier of wireless components to Apple, had signed a multi-billion-dollar deal with the company to develop 5G radio frequency components.777 jili casino online games login 。

Science and Technology Daily: Promoting AI Governance JointlySupporters of suspected CEO killer Luigi Mangione establish defense fund

As New York City prosecutors worked Thursday to bring murder charges against Luigi Mangione in the brazen killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson , supporters of the suspect are donating tens of thousands of dollars for a defense fund established for him, leaving law enforcement officials worried Mangione is being turned into a martyr. Several online defense funds have been created for Mangione by anonymous people, including one on the crowdfunding website GiveSendGo that as of Thursday afternoon had raised over $50,000. The GiveSendGo defense fund for the 26-year-old Mangione was established by an anonymous group calling itself "The December 4th Legal Committee," apparently in reference to the day Mangione allegedly ambushed and gunned down Thompson in Midtown Manhattan as the executive walked to his company's shareholders conference at the New York Hilton hotel. "We are not here to celebrate violence, but we do believe in the constitutional right to fair legal representation," the anonymous group said in a statement. The crowdfunding campaign prompted donations from more than 1,500 anonymous donors across the country, many of them leaving messages of support for Mangione, including one person who called themselves "A frustrated citizen" and thanked Mangione for "sparking the awareness and thought across this sleeping nation." The GiveSendGo fund for Mangione appeared to be briefly taken down before it was restored on Thursday. GiveSendGo did not immediately respond to ABC News' requests for comment. Other crowdfunding sites such as GoFundMe have also taken down campaigns soliciting donations for Mangione's defense. "GoFundMe's Terms of Service prohibit fundraisers for the legal defense of violent crimes," the crowdfunding website said in a statement. "The fundraisers have been removed from our platform and all donors have been refunded." Amazon and Etsy have removed from their websites merchandise featuring Mangione, including T-shirts and tote bags reading "Free Luigi" and the phrase "Deny, Defend, Depose," words police said were etched in the shell casings discovered at the scene of Thompson's homicide. "Celebrating this conduct is abhorrent to me. It's deeply disturbing," Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg told ABC News senior investigative reporter Aaron Katersky in an interview Wednesday night. "And what I would say to members of the public, people who as you described are celebrating this and maybe contemplating other action, that we will be vigilant and we will hold people accountable. We are at the ready." Prosecutors at the Manhattan district attorney's office have begun presenting evidence to a grand jury as they work to try to secure an indictment against Mangione, sources told ABC News on Thursday. Mangione's attorney, Thomas Dickey of Altoona, Pennsylvania, where Mangione was arrested Monday following a five-day manhunt, said his client is presumed innocent and will plead not guilty to any charges filed against him. Mangione is contesting extradition to New York. Asked about people contributing to Mangione defense funds that have popped up, Dickey said, "People are entitled to their opinion and, like I said, if you're an American and you believe in the American criminal justice system, you have to presume him to be innocent and none of us would want anything other than that if that were us in their shoes. So, I'm glad he had some support." But law enforcement officials have expressed concern that Mangione is being turned into a martyr. Someone this week pasted "wanted posters" outside the New York Stock Exchange naming other executives. A bulletin released Wednesday by the Delaware Valley Intelligence Center, a multi-agency law enforcement intelligence-sharing network based in Philadelphia, included a photo of a banner hanging from an overpass reading, "Deny, Defend, Depose." "Many social media users have outright advocated for the continued killings of CEOs with some aiming to spread fear by posting 'hit lists,'" the bulletin, obtained by ABC News, reads. Meanwhile, New York Police Department investigators continue to build a murder case against Mangione, who is being held in Pennsylvania on charges stemming from his arrest there, including illegal possession of ghost gun and fraudulent identification. Mangione has pleaded not guilty to the charges in Pennsylvania. On Wednesday, NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch said that the three shell casings recovered at the scene of Thompson's shooting matched the gun found in Mangione possession when he was arrested. She also confirmed that Mangione's fingerprints were recovered from a water bottle and the wrapper of a granola bar found near the crime scene.Carlo Ancelotti backs Kylian Mbappe after latest penalty miss: 'He can do better'

Judges on Tuesday upheld the death sentence of property developer Truong My Lan, who was convicted this year of embezzling vast sums from the Saigon Commercial Bank (SCB), which she controlled, having borrowed from tens of thousands of small investors. Corruption is extensive in Vietnam, which ranked 83rd out of 180 in Transparency International’s most recent Corruption Perception Index. But the monumental scale of Lan’s crime was unprecedented, with the USD27-billion in losses prosecutors said she caused equivalent to Bosnia’s entire annual gross domestic product. Banking experts fear other damaging allegations are lurking in hidden recesses of the financial sector of the fast-growing economy, which is seen as a favoured destination for foreign investors. “SCB is not a single problem, it is an illness of the whole economy,” banking expert Bui Kien Thanh told AFP . The Vietnamese financial system was “characterised by a lack of tight state management”, he said. “Similar issues are rampant in society, so (Vietnam) needs to study and fix the problem before others arise.” Experts said a key systemic weakness is in the regulation of the corporate bond market, where companies borrow money from investors. In most developed markets, bonds are issued through independently regulated brokers on the basis of a full prospectus, graded by ratings agencies, and traded on stock exchanges. But SCB, through its branches, misleadingly sold its bonds directly to retail customers, with staff trained for weeks on how to falsely reassure them their money was secure and the investment carried little risk. Tens of thousands of people invested their savings in the bonds and lost everything when the bank collapsed and had to be bailed out by authorities, some of them contemplating suicide. Most Vietnamese company debt is not rated for creditworthiness at all, with local ratings agency FiinRatings saying there were no corporate bonds with credit ratings in the country in the years before Lan’s arrest. That compared with an average of around 50 per cent across the 10-member ASEAN. According to state media, a judge at Lan’s original trial asked police to look into the role played by staff at three of the world’s biggest accounting firms that audited SCB’s books – Ernst and Young, Deloitte and KPMG. None of the three responded to requests for comment by AFP . At every level of the Vietnamese financial sector – from employees on the ground to regulatory authorities – there is a lack of training on financial markets, the risks involved and regulatory obligations, Thanh said. On paper, Lan owned just five per cent of shares in SCB, but at her trial, the court concluded that she effectively controlled more than 90 per cent through family, friends and staff who were asked to hold stocks on her behalf. She then used her position to direct SCB management staff to withdraw money from the bank, over time transporting the equivalent of USD4.4 billion in cash in trucks to her home and the offices of her Van Thinh Phat property firm. “They don’t question the paperwork... they just say, how are we going to do it? How fast can we do it?” said economist based in the United States Khuong Huu Loc. “The whole system is a game based on collusion,” he added. “The problem is, it gets so bad, (but) people let her continue on because you don’t want to open the can of worms.”

IPL 2025: DC sign Harry Brook for Rs 6.25 cr; Devon Conway returns to CSKRico Carty, who won the 1970 NL batting title with the Atlanta Braves, has died

Supporters of suspected CEO killer Luigi Mangione establish defense fundThe former Tory chancellor, now chairman of the British Museum, suggested Sir Keir Starmer had contributed to a warmer spirit of the negotiations over the famous ancient artworks. Greece has long called for the return of the Marbles, also known as the Parthenon sculptures, and maintains they were illegally removed from Athens’ acropolis during a period of foreign occupation. The British Museum – where they are currently on display – is forbidden by law from giving away any of its artefacts, and the Government has no plans to change the law to permit a permanent move. But under Mr Osborne’s leadership, the museum is negotiating the possibility of a long-term loan of the sculptures, in exchange for rolling exhibitions of famous artworks. No 10 has indicated the Prime Minister is unlikely to stand in the way of such a deal. Speaking on Political Currency, the podcast he hosts alongside former Labour politician Ed Balls, Mr Osborne said the museum was “looking to see if we can come to some arrangement where at some point some of the sculptures are in Athens, where, of course, they were originally sited”. He added: “And in return, Greece lends us some of its treasures, and we made a lot of progress on that, but we’re still some distance from any kind of agreement.” The Greek government has suggested negotiations with the museum have taken a warmer tone since Labour came to power in the summer. Mr Osborne appeared to concur with this view and praised Sir Keir’s hands-off approach, adding: “It is not the same as Rishi Sunak, who refused to see the Greek prime minister, if you remember, he sort of stood him up. “So it seems to me a more sensible and diplomatic way to proceed.” Kyriakos Mitsotakis, the Greek premier, discussed the Elgin Marbles with Sir Keir when they met on Tuesday morning at Downing Street, he said after returning to Athens. Mr Mitsotakis has signalled his government is awaiting developments on the negotiations. A diplomatic spat between the Greek leader and Mr Sunak emerged last year when the then-prime minister refused to meet his counterpart. Mr Mitsotakis had compared splitting the Elgin Marbles from those still in Athens to cutting the Mona Lisa in half. The marble statues came from friezes on the 2,500-year-old Parthenon temple and have been displayed at the British Museum for more than 200 years. They were removed by Lord Elgin in the early 19th century when he was British ambassador to the Ottoman Empire. Some of the remaining temple statues are on display in the purpose-built Acropolis Museum in Athens, and Greece has called for the collections to be reunited.

Rico Carty, who won the 1970 NL batting title when he hit a major league-best .366 for the Atlanta Braves, has died. He was 85. Major League Baseball , the players’ association and the Braves paid tribute to Carty on social media on Sunday. No further details on Carty’s death were provided. “Carty was one of the first groundbreaking Latino stars in the major leagues, and he established himself as a hero to millions in his native Dominican Republic, his hometown of San Pedro de Macoris, and the city of Atlanta, where he was a beloved fan favourite,” the players’ association said in its statement . The Braves said Carty left an indelible mark on the organization. “While his on-field accomplishments will never be forgotten, his unforgettable smile and generous nature will be sorely missed,” the team said in its statement. Carty made his big league debut with the Braves in September 1963. He batted .330 with 22 homers and 88 RBIs in his first full season in 1964, finishing second to Dick Allen in voting for NL Rookie of the Year. The Braves moved from Milwaukee to Atlanta after the 1965 season, and Carty got the franchise’s first hit in its new home on April 12, 1966, against Pittsburgh. Carty had his best year in 1970, batting .366 with 25 homers and a career-best 101 RBIs. He started the All-Star Game after he was elected as a write-in candidate, joining Willie Mays and Hank Aaron in the NL outfield. Carty batted .299 with 204 homers and 890 RBIs over 15 years in the majors, also playing for Cleveland, Toronto, Oakland, Texas and the Chicago Cubs. He retired after the 1979 season.Global Human Resources Management (HRM) Software Market Size, Share and Forecast By Key Players-Workday,SAP SE,Kronos,Oracle,IBM

The DJI Air 3S is the best drone for anyone who isn’t a professional videographer, offering excellent flight features and a high-end camera. It’s a big year for DJI. Earlier this year, the company unveiled its cheapest drone yet with , a drone that I generally quite liked considering its low price point. Now the company is back with an update to the Air series, which has long been the go-to for those who don’t want to spend DJI Mavic-level money but want something a little more advanced than what’s on offer by the DJI Mini series. The DJI Air 3S builds on the original DJI Air 3 while offering more internal storage, some camera upgrades, and some extra features. While the Air series is excellent for those who have some cash to spend, the DJI Mini has been getting better and better over the years, and at this point, it is a professional-level drone in a compact and portable body. Does the Air 3S offer enough in terms of upgrades to buy over ? DJI Air 3S specs Iterating on the same sleek design The DJI Air 3S doesn’t necessarily reinvent the wheel when it comes to DJI drone design. In fact, if you’ve seen a DJI drone before, you might not even be able to tell the difference between the one you saw and the Air 3S. That’s not a bad thing though. DJI has made minor improvements to its design every generation, and the Air 3S is sleek and stylish. It’s built from the same grey plastic as other drones, with black highlights in the camera gimbal and propellers. The battery can be removed from the rear of the device, and slightly under the battery compartment can be found a USB-C port and a microSD card slot. The drone has cameras and sensors dotted around its body for different obstacle-avoidance technologies. Sign up for the most interesting tech & entertainment news out there. By signing up, I agree to the and have reviewed the The drone folds up nicely into a relatively compact package, and it comes with a nice carry bag that it slots right into. We’re reviewing the DJI Air 3S Fly More Combo, which also comes with extra batteries, the DJI RC2 controller, and six additional propellers on top of the four that you’ll need to install before flying (propellers are not pre-installed). The case is high quality and relatively protective, though it’s not a hard case, so you’ll still want to be careful with it. Installing the propellers is very easy — simply push down and twist, and the propellers should be set in place. Make sure you install the right propellers on the correct arms, though. The DJI Air 3S weighs 724 grams with its battery and propellers, which means that it’s large enough that you’ll need to register it with the FAA in order to use it. The weight limit for FAA registration is 250 grams, which is why most mini-sized drones tend to be 249 grams. That’s not the case here, though, so make sure you register your drone before you fly it. The base package of the DJI Air 3S comes with the DJI RC-N3 controller, which will require that you use your phone in order to see a live feed from the cameras. While I didn’t test that controller for this drone, I have used similar controllers from DJI in the past, and they work relatively well — plus, they leverage the fact that your phone likely has a high-end screen anyway. The Fly More combo, however, comes with the DJI RC2 controller, which is an all-in-one controller that has a screen built into it, so you won’t need to rely on any external devices. In some situations, you might actually prefer the cheaper controller, especially if you have a high-end smartphone. The screen on the DJI RC2 controller is bright and detailed, but its 720-nit brightness isn’t as impressive as the brightness on offer by many modern phones. The 1080p resolution offered by the controller is fine, and keep in mind that drones don’t generally transmit footage at a higher resolution than 1080p anyway, so a higher resolution screen won’t do that much good. Generally, the controller feels good in the hand. The buttons are clicky, and the joysticks feel smooth. Flying the DJI Air 3S Like other drones, the DJI Air 3S offers a number of different flight modes that you can use while you’re flying. Basically, these modes boil down to Cine mode, normal mode, and sport mode. For most casual flying, you’ll stick to normal mode, but if you want to fly at the fastest speeds possible, you’ll need to switch to sport mode, which will disable some of the safety features built into the drone. Indeed, in Sport mode, the drone felt quite fast, though it’s not that easy to feel the speed when you’re flying at higher altitudes. The DJI Air 3S packs in all of DJI’s best features, in a well-rounded, easy-to-use package. For starters, the drone leverages DJI’s omnidirectional obstacle avoidance, essentially meaning that it’ll track and avoid obstacles anywhere around the drone. This technology is disabled when you’re in Sport mode, which offers the fastest flying speeds, but in any other mode, it’ll be automatically enabled to help better protect your drone from anything it may run into. On top of that, it has a new advanced Return to Home feature that allows it to route a path back to the home location a little more intelligently. It will do so by planning an optimized route while retaining its omnidirectional obstacle avoidance stack. Frankly, I had no problems with DJI’s previous-generation return-to-home tech, but improvements are always nice. There are other smart features on offer here too. For example, the drone offers DJI’s ActiveTrack 360 technology, which allows it to follow an object that you’ve preselected, even when that object moves around. You’ll basically drag a box around the object on the screen of the controller, after which the drone will keep that object centered in the shot as it records. It’s pretty neat, and it worked quite well in my testing. The battery life offered by the drone is pretty good. You get up to 45 minutes of flight time on a single charge, though in most situations you won’t quite reach that unless you’re flying in the most conservative modes. Still, 45 minutes is above average, and if you get the Fly More combo, you’ll have three batteries in total, allowing you to fly for longer as long as you return home to replace the battery every so often. Last but not least, the drone offers helpful modes for videographers looking to automate some of the capture process. There’s a Waypoint Flight and Cruise Control mode that lets you set predetermined flight paths and camera actions, ensuring that you get the perfect shot. It can take a little time to set up the shot, but once you do, you’ll find that it captures it pretty well. An advanced dual-camera system The camera system built into the DJI Air 3S is advanced and versatile, and I generally found it captured vibrant and detailed images and videos. In particular, the drone could capture 10-bit 4K video at up to 60 frames per second, or 120 frames per second if you enter slow-motion mode. Alternatively, you can shoot 1080p video at 240 frames per second. That’s incredibly impressive, especially considering the fact that you’re recording HDR footage. The drone has two cameras built into it, one wide-angle camera that you use for most shots and one telephoto camera that offers 3x optical zoom or the equivalent of a 70mm lens. I found that regardless of which camera I was using, the stabilization on the drone was excellent, and I never experienced video that wasn’t incredibly smooth. The drone works well no matter what kind of creator you are. It can capture horizontal footage, which most videographers will probably make use of. But if you are creating for social media, you can also switch to a vertical mode that can shoot 2.7K footage at 60 frames per second. The camera itself doesn’t rotate, so it’s still capturing footage in the same way, but when it does so, it will draw a frame around the area that it’s capturing in this mode so that you can get an idea of what the shot will look like. On top of the basic capture modes that casual users can make use of, the drone can also capture DNG RAW photos that are more easily edited and 10-bit D-Log M footage that can be color-graded. This makes it excellent for aspiring videographers who still aren’t willing to spend the cash necessary for DJI’s much more advanced drones but have the skills necessary to edit after capture. I wouldn’t necessarily say that I have those chops, but I did still enjoy editing shots in Adobe Lightroom, and love the added versatility. Conclusions The DJI Air 3S is the template for what a consumer drone should be. It’s easy to fly, offers advanced features, and can capture excellent footage. Casual or recreational flyers should still consider the cheaper, yet still impressive, DJI Mini 4 Pro. But if you’re looking for something a little more advanced and are willing to spend a little more cash, then the DJI Air 3S is the way to go. Those considering the DJI Air 3S are likely also looking at or coming from the previous generation DJI Air 3. If you have an Air 3, it’s probably not quite worth upgrading. Air 3S has better omnidirectional sensing, especially in low light, and some new capture modes. But if you find that the obstacle avoidance on the Air 3 is already good enough, and you don’t think you’ll need those additional modes, stick with the DJI Air 3. Compared to the DJI Mini 4 Pro, the Air 3S offers a better camera system, can fly faster, and has better battery life. That said, the Mini 4 Pro still has a versatile dual camera system and can capture 4K footage at 60 frames per second. Plus, it has a similar transmission distance. If you’re a casual flyer and could stand to save some cash, is easily good enough. Plus, you won’t have to register it with the FAA like you will with the DJI Air 3S. Yes. It’s an excellent drone and the way to go for anyone willing to spend the cash.

Apple puts a lot of effort into promoting accessibility with things like the hearing aid feature for AirPods Pro. This time, however, the company showed an example of how the iPhone’s Action Mode has been helping people with Parkinson’s in their routines. iPhone’s Action Mode has become an accessibility feature for people with Parkinson’s Apple’s latest campaign filmed in Brazil not only promotes Action Mode, but also shows how important the feature has become for those living with hand tremors from Parkinson’s disease. For those unfamiliar, Action Mode is a camera option available for iPhone 14 and later that significantly corrects shakes and vibrations when capturing video, making them super stable. While for some people Action Mode is just one of many camera features on the iPhone, for others it has become an important accessibility feature. The new videos promoted by Apple tell stories of people living with Parkinson’s and how the iPhone lets them film videos despite their shaking hands. One of these stories is about Rodrigo Mendes, who has been living with Parkinson’s since 2009 and still pursues his hobby of mountain climbing and hiking. “Climbing the mountain itself is already amazing, but capturing it is important too, right? The Action Mode on iPhone makes a huge difference because, imagine trying to film with your hand shaking like this, you know? [...] being able to capture an image on yout own in the end makes all the difference,” Mendes says in the video. Apple also shared the stories of other people living with Parkinson’s in its new campaign. In all the videos, the company shows the difference between filming with and without Action Mode. Mendes’ video was posted on Apple’s official Instagram account , and although it was recorded in Portuguese, the video has English subtitles. You can watch it below: More about Apple and accessibility Earlier this week, Apple’s global head of accessibility Sarah Herrlinger discussed in an interview how the company wants to make technology accessible to anyone. More recently, Apple released an update for the AirPods Pro 2 that turns them into hearing aids . The feature was promoted in this year’s Apple holiday ad . The company also often shares stories about people who have had their lives saved with the help of Apple devices and technologies such as Emergency SOS and irregular heart rhythm notifications from the Apple Watch.

Gus Atkinson claims England's first Test hat-trick in seven years as the seamer skittles New Zealand's tail to continue his scintillating start to international red ball career Atkinson added a Test hat-trick to his list of accolades at international level He has settled well into side and became the 14th England player to achieve feat England were already on top going into the second day of the second Test By LEWIS BROWNING Published: 22:55, 6 December 2024 | Updated: 23:28, 6 December 2024 e-mail View comments Gus Atkinson took England's first Test match hat-trick for seven years as he skittled New Zealand's tail on day two in Wellington. The Surrey seamer had enjoyed an impressive start to life in England whites, already picking up a five-fer, 10-fer and a century in his nine matches going into the ongoing second Test. But things got even better in the morning session of day two, as he took to the field bowling in tandem with Brydon Carse in what looks to finally be a settled leading seam partnership for Ben Stokes ' side. New Zealand, who look all at sea and a side a million miles away from the one that won in India just a matter of weeks ago, were five wickets down going into the second day after England posted 280 with the bat. They would have hoped to put up more of a fight than they have done so far this series, but Tom Blundell and William O'Rourke were both dismissed off the bowling of Carse early on. And then it was the Atkinson show. He took the wickets of first Nathan Smith, then Matt Henry and finally Tim Southee to claim yet another historical feat in an England shirt.

BOURNEMOUTH, England, Dec 5 (Reuters) - Tottenham Hotspur manager Ange Postecoglou confronted fans after his side's tame 1-0 Premier League defeat at Bournemouth on Thursday which increased the pressure on the Australian. Postecoglou's side were unrecognisable from the one that beat Manchester City 4-0 in their last away game, producing a lacklustre display and conceding from a basic set-piece. They have now lost six of their 14 league games this season and sit 10th in the table, below Bournemouth. Boos were heard from the visiting fans after the final whistle and Postecoglou engaged a few in conversation. "They are disappointed, rightly so. They gave me some direct feedback which I guess is taken on board," he told reporters. Asked what was said, he added: "Probably not for here mate. I've got no issue with it. I didn't like what was being said because I'm a human being but you've got to cop it. "I've been around long enough to know that if things don't go well, you've got to understand the frustration." Postecoglou faces a crucial few weeks if the season is not to start unravelling. His stuttering side host high-flying Chelsea on Sunday and travel to Rangers for a crucial Europa League clash next week. After a trip to bottom club Southampton they face Manchester United in the League Cup quarter-finals and host leaders Liverpool shortly before Christmas. "All I can say is I'm really disappointed with tonight and I'm determined to get it right and I'll keep fighting until we do," Postecoglou said. Adding to his woes was an injury to Ben Davies who was playing as centre back in the absence of injured duo Cristian Romero and Micky van de Ven. "It looks like he's done his hamstring.

Reporting by Martyn Herman, editing by ERd Osmond Our Standards: The Thomson Reuters Trust Principles. , opens new tabNoneFacebook Twitter WhatsApp SMS Email Print Copy article link Save CAPE MAY — Even when the city opened its then-state-of-the-art desalination plant more than 25 years ago, it was clear it would not last forever, Nick Asselta told City Council during a meeting this week. The former state senator, who was also on the state Board of Public Utilities, participated in an update on efforts to plan and fund a new plant, presented by the firm Consulting and Municipal Engineers and the consulting firm Triad Associates. “We knew eventually this facility would have to be upgraded,” he said. “There’s been questions about how to fund it.” Council heard plans for a new water treatment plant next to the existing one on Canning House Lane, in a new building next door that will be designed and built to resemble the current plant, which is housed in a century-old structure. There are also plans to seek funding from multiple state and federal sources, including grants and low-interest loans from the state Department of Environmental Protection, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the U.S Department of Agriculture, which helped Cape May build the current plant in the 1990s.

You’re a successful community, there’s no doubt,” Asselta said. He and other speakers said it could be a very expensive project. The plan is to make it as easy on taxpayers as possible, Asselta said. The latest estimates put the cost of the project at about $30 million, Mayor Zack Mullock said Friday, with the project taking 14 to 16 months to complete. Critics and supporters of a $37.5 million plan for the Higbee Beach Wildlife Management Area, along with the simply curious, crowded the Lower Township meeting hall to learn more and have their say Thursday evening. “We want to be in a position where by the summer we can go out to bid, provided that the money is lined up,” consultant Michael Zumpino said. He expressed optimism that the funding would come through. “It’s a work in process, but the process is maturing,” he said. CME has been working on plans to expand the current desal plant, which falls short of the recommended capacity for the community it serves. When it was built in the late 1990s, with significant help from state and federal grants, it was an extraordinary step to address saltwater intrusion into the aquifers that serve New Jersey’s southern Cape. The plants are still unusual. A report from 2019 for the U.S. Department of the Interior’s Bureau of Reclamation shows about 400 desalination plants have been built since 1970, with a steady increase in the use of the technology. But only about half of those built remain in operation, and most of those are in California, Florida and Texas. The report shows three plants in New Jersey. Similar plants are in use around the world , but some reports indicate American cities and utilities have been slow to adopt them. Cape May officials have long said without the desal plant, the town, some surrounding communities and the U.S. Coast Guard Training Center would not have enough water to function. With salt water on three sides, drawing fresh water from the Atlantic City Sands aquifer and the Kirkwood-Cohansey Aquifer has also drawn in salty water. For years, that just meant digging a new well a little farther inland, but that approach would not have worked indefinitely. The aquifers are hundreds of feet below the surface and contain massive amounts of water, but not infinite amounts. A new water treatment plant may provide millions of gallons of water a day to thirsty Cape May residents, visitors and Coast Guard recruits, if the city can find the money. The current Cape May plant uses revers osmosis to remove the salt. A portion of the water, now a concentrated salt water, is discharged into the already brackish creek, while the rest is treated, including returning some minerals to the mix, and added to the potable water supply. Project manager Mike Dziubeck, an engineer with CME, told council the DEP has concerns about the capacity of the current plant, primarily because the system does not have any built-in redundancy, so if part of the system went down on a summer weekend, there would not be enough capacity to meet the need. The current capacity is 2 million gallons of water a day, while the new system could handle 3.2 million gallons a day. As proposed, the new plant would include space to expand its capacity for the reverse osmosis system and a system to remove iron from water from the well drawn from the Cohansey. The building would also include offices, and plans call for solar panels on the roof to offset the power costs, one of the most expensive elements of the operation. The building, as proposed, would be fairly simple, but with a brick façade at the front that would mimic the existing building. It would be two feet above the level of what is described as a 500-year flood, Dziubeck said. That would be a flood that would have a 1-in-500 chance of happening in a given year.

Bitcoin falls below $100,000 after reaching the milestone level for the first timeEgyptian President Abdel Fattah Al-Sisi met with Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen in Copenhagen on Saturday, marking a historic milestone in Egypt-Denmark relations. This visit, the first of its kind since the establishment of bilateral ties in 1922, witnessed the signing of a strategic partnership declaration and several memoranda of understanding across various sectors. At a joint press conference, President Al-Sisi emphasized the importance of this landmark visit, underlining the mutual commitment to enhancing cooperation in political, economic, and investment domains. The strategic partnership agreement focuses on key areas including maritime transport, green energy transition, health, scientific research, agriculture, tourism, information technology, and combating pressing challenges such as poverty, desertification, and illegal immigration. The discussions extended to pressing regional and international issues. President Al-Sisi underscored Egypt’s efforts to de-escalate the situation in Gaza, advocating for the establishment of an independent Palestinian state based on the 1967 borders. Both leaders stressed the need for unimpeded humanitarian aid to Gaza amid the deteriorating humanitarian crisis. The talks also covered the ceasefire agreement in Lebanon, where Al-Sisi called for adherence to UN Security Council resolutions. Additionally, the leaders addressed the ongoing crises in Syria and Sudan, Red Sea security, and the conflict in Ukraine, reiterating the importance of diplomatic solutions and respect for national sovereignty. Prime Minister Frederiksen expressed her aspiration to deepen bilateral ties and praised Egypt’s role in promoting regional stability. Al-Sisi invited Frederiksen to visit Egypt, signaling the intention to further bolster cooperation in the near future. In a meeting with Søren Gade Jensen, Speaker of the Danish Parliament, President Al-Sisi highlighted Egypt’s commitment to enhancing bilateral parliamentary cooperation. He stressed the pivotal role of legislative institutions in strengthening ties between the two nations, especially in light of the elevated strategic partnership. The visit also included engagements with Danish business leaders. President Al-Sisi celebrated the launch of the Egyptian-Danish Business Council, reflecting a shared commitment to advancing economic and investment cooperation. The council aims to leverage the significant opportunities available in both countries. On Friday, President Al-Sisi attended an official dinner hosted by King Frederik X of Denmark in his honour. During his address, Al-Sisi emphasized shared values such as justice, peace, tolerance, and mutual respect, describing Denmark as a natural partner for Egypt in northern Europe. He noted Denmark’s strategic vision of using Egypt as a gateway to Africa, while Egypt views Denmark as a vital partner in expanding its global outreach. President Al-Sisi’s visit to Denmark has set a transformative precedent in bilateral relations. By elevating ties to a strategic partnership, both nations aim to unlock new horizons of cooperation in areas critical to their shared development goals. This historic engagement underscores a unified vision for fostering global peace, sustainability, and prosperity.

Cong Wang vs. Valentina Shevchenko pic.twitter.com/VKMe7Y2Rxr The problem for Fernandes is that the obvious best path to beat the Chinese knockout artist is to grapple her, but Gabriella has proven to be wrestle-able herself. Her background is in Brazilian-style Muay Thai. Her clinch can be deadly and a dirty, clinch-striking attack may give the kickboxer trouble. But Wang Cong’s attributes are too great to ignore; nobody at 125-lbs in the women's divisions can put people out cold. She even has added some grappling skills, with two submission finishes on her MMA resume. I expect Fernandes to approach cockily for a stand-up duel and get TKOed or lose a wide decision.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — The Tennessee Titans have the slimmest of playoff hopes and must win out to have any chance of keeping them alive. Figuring out who they are would be a first step in the right direction. The Titans (3-9) also must bounce back from last week's ugly loss at Washington that cost this franchise yet another chance to string together consecutive wins for the first time in more than two years. “We know that this is a big opportunity for us to develop as a team and to create and to continue developing our identity,” quarterback Will Levis said. “And so we’re going to make sure that we do our best throughout these next few weeks to do that.” The Jacksonville Jaguars (2-10) lost Trevor Lawrence for the rest of the season after the hit he took from Texans linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair in last week's 23-20 loss to Houston. Their already dim playoff hopes were extinguished Monday night when Denver won. That leaves the Jaguars playing for pride and potentially drafting No. 1 overall for the third time in five years. “It’s all about how you finish,” tight end Evan Engram said. “How we finish probably won’t erase the feeling we have of the season. But as the pride of this franchise, the pride of the team, it’s definitely worth going to finish strong and going to get some wins and fighting for that.” Stop the run The Titans went into Washington with one of the NFL's stingiest defenses and wound up shredded, giving up a season-worst 267 yards rushing. Defensive coordinator Dennard Wilson said, “We can’t allow what happened last week to happen again.” Ridley revenge game Wide receiver Calvin Ridley says he's excited to see some old teammates Sunday and downplayed a question about how close Jacksonville's offer to keep him last March might've been when he chose to sign with division rival Tennessee instead. “Doesn't matter right now,” Ridley said. “I'm excited for this week. Jags come in here, play with my boys. I'm excited.” Ridley played one season with Jacksonville after the Jaguars traded for him . He had 76 catches for 1,016 yards and eight TDs last season with the Jaguars. So far this season, Ridley has 43 receptions for 679 yards and three TDs. “I just know I'm going to be ready,” Ridley said. Streaking Jaguars Jacksonville has lost 16 consecutive games when tied or trailing at halftime. It’s a complete flip from the 2022 season, in which the Jaguars rallied to beat Dallas, the Las Vegas Raiders and Tennessee down the stretch to make the playoffs. The 20-16 victory against the Titans in the regular-season finale that year is the last time coach Doug Pederson’s team has come from behind to win after trailing or being tied at the break. Tennessee led 13-7 at the half in that one and was minutes from winning a third straight AFC South title . Hines-Allen nears sack record Jaguars defensive end Josh Hines-Allen needs 4 1/2 sacks to break the franchise record of 55 held by Tony Brackens. Hines-Allen has at least half a sack in four consecutive games against Tennessee, which has given up 43 sacks in 2024. “My family knows about it probably more than me,” Hines-Allen said. “My wife tells me all the time, ‘Hey, get that record. All you just need is four sacks.’ Like, you can just (get) four sacks. “I had a couple games last year where I had three, so I can’t say it’s out of the realm. But I never had four sacks; don’t know what it feels like to do that in one game. But hopefully speak it into existence.” QB challenge Mac Jones will be starting at quarterback and is 0-2 with the Jaguars this season. He has one more interception (three) than touchdown passes (two) in five appearances. The Titans are looking to see if Levis can keep building on his strong play of the past month and start turning those into wins. Levis is 1-3 since returning from a strained throwing shoulder. He has seven TD passes with two interceptions for a 101.3 passer rating in his past four games. He also is completing 61.7% of his passes for 960 yards. “The cool thing right now for Will is that as we’ve corrected things, he’s corrected them,” Titans coach Brian Callahan said . “And that’s been really fun to watch as he’s made adjustments from game to game, sometimes even from in the game made an adjustment to a coverage or a read, and that part’s been good to see.” ___ AP Pro Football Writer Mark Long in Jacksonville, Florida, contributed to this report. ___ AP NFL: https://apnews.com/hub/nfl Teresa M.

When the Philadelphia 76ers signed Paul George this offseason, they signed him believing he would be the top-notch isolation scorer he’s been throughout his career. More than that, George's addition was supposed to replace what James Harden once brought to the Sixers as an iso scorer. Thus far, the results have not been promising when comparing the two. Harden may not be the same player he was at the peak of his powers with the Houston Rockets, but he's still lethal enough in that department to still be considered one of the best isolation scorers in the NBA. In fact, Harden leads all NBA players in points scored in isolation with 131 points, according to NBA.com. With Kawhi Leonard out, the Los Angeles Clippers have asked Harden to shoulder the scoring load, and he's risen to the challenge. In that same respect, compare that to George, Harden's former teammate, and the results are not pretty. Paul George’s isolation scoring has also been putrid Again, George came to the Sixers with the reputation of a wing scorer. He has that reputation because he’s earned it from his time with the Indiana Pacers, Oklahoma City Thunder, and Clippers. However, he has not started the season well in isolation. George has scored 27 points in isolation in the eight games he’s played for the Sixers. It's, of course, worth noting Harden has played in 18 games, but the trends do not point to George matching Harden's impressive total with additional appearances. That is well short of what the Sixers wanted to see from George when they signed him. Seeing how much better Harden has been in that department makes it harder to stomach how underwhelming George has been as a player. The Sixers may have other scorers around him, like Tyrese Maxey and Joel Embiid, but George was supposed to take the pressure off them and vice versa. At age 34 and with his injury history, it shouldn’t surprise anyone that George has declined a bit. However, his numbers tumbling to this extent is a major red flag that the Sixers may be unable to ignore if things don’t pick up soon. Harden thriving in this particular category may make George’s struggles even more painful to watch. MORE SIXERS NEWS: 76ers loss to Clippers goes from bad to worse with viral social media slipup

This has resulted in increased time for goods to reach international markets, he said. “No shortage of containers has been, however, reported on account of the longer voyage time or the Red Sea conflicts issues and Russia-Ukraine War,” the minister said adding regular interactions are done with shipping lines, port/ terminal, and export/import associations to assess for possible interventions. He added that there is limited demand for containers manufactured in India and accordingly the limited manufacturing capacity for containers in India. The container manufacturing industry is dominated by economies of scale that favour established manufacturers from other countries, who benefit from lower production costs, advanced technologies, and immediate cargo loading opportunities. “The long voyage time due to ships taking longer routes through Cape of Good Hope has impacted global trade, including Indian exports,” he said in a written reply to the Lok Sabha. The minister informed that Container Corporation of India Limited (CONCOR) have placed order with Amba Coach Builders Pvt ltd located in Andhra Pradesh of total 2500 containers since 2021 out of which 28 containers have been delivered till November.

A guy who’s built his fortune on the spectacle of two fighters beating each other bloody in a cage might be expected to have a strong stomach. But when it comes to American politics, Ultimate Fighting Championship CEO Dana White has seen enough for a lifetime. And the man who’s being credited with playing a key role in Donald Trump’s re-election in November is making a promise. “I’m never f***ing doing this again,” White told the uber-liberal magazine in an interview published this week. “I want nothing to do with this sh*t. It’s gross. It’s disgusting. I want nothing to do with politics.” The quote comes at the end of a report pegged to President-elect Trump’s Nov. 16. The report details — in typically colorful, bordering-on-bloated New Yorker style — the gladiator-ring atmosphere of the UFC fight lineup at Madison Square Garden (the same venue where Trump had staged a in the final days of the presidential campaign). Trump’s entrance was saluted by a crowd going crazy, with UFC commentator and popular podcaster Joe Rogan pointing out the obvious. “It’s always loud when he comes here, but now that he’s won? Now that he’s the President again? Oh, my God,” Rogan said, according to the report by the New Yorker’s Sam Eagan. The report contains a condensed history of the UFC and Trump’s role in making the brutal, mixed martial arts sport part of mainstream American entertainment. “As the UFC has grown, there’s been a lot of people that have jumped on the bandwagon and became fans,” White said, according to Eagan. “Trump was there from the beginning.” And that history might have played a major role in the Nov. 5 election by combining UFC’s target audience with a voting bloc Republicans courted. “Young men, one of the most unreliable demographics in politics, make up a large part of UFC’s audience,” Eagan wrote. Podcasts devoted to UFC news and personalities might have helped reach that demographic — outside the octupus-sprawl of the establisment media and its relentless anti-Trump bias. “You’re getting conversations in these podcasts, and you yourself, as a young kid, get to really see who Donald Trump is,” White said, according to Eagan. “Not the bullsh*t you hear from the far-left media.” Considering that Democrat Kamala Harris made the cornerstone of her campaign — at every opportunity — the Republican attempt to get young men to the voting booth might have been the necessary corrective. Rogan himself of Trump that made headlines just before polls opened. And Eagen attempted to draw a parallel between UFC competition and the GOP candidate himself. “The product White is selling—two people locked in a cage, engaging in a mixture of boxing, wrestling, Brazilian jujitsu, Muay Thai, and karate among other martial arts—mirrors Trump’s own appeal in many respects,” he wrote. “The U.F.C. alternates between the camp theatrics of show business and a kind of abject brutality that is impossible to look away from. The sport is now fully in the mainstream, but it still has a chip on its shoulder, casting itself and its fans as widely misunderstood.” To many Americans, Trump has good reason to have a chip on his shoulder when it comes to the political and media establishment. The role of the Democratic Party, deep state bureaucrats and media outlets like CNN in pushing the “ ” investigation that bedeviled his first term is indisputable. After that collapsed, the same parties teamed up for in 2019 — and again for his in 2021. After he was out of office, the same forces aligned in savage legal attacks that included the at the Mar-a-Lago Club in South Florida, flimsy legal prosecutions at the local level in New York and Georgia as well as in the federal courts. Through all of that in his first term, Trump persevered — as able to take a beating in the figurative sense as White’s fighters can take and deliver one inside a UFC cage. “Donald Trump is tougher and more badass than anybody,” White said, according to Eagan. “You can only pray that you’re a quarter of the man that Donald Trump was when a guy tried to take seven shots at his head with a high-powered rifle with a f***ing scope on it.” We are committed to truth and accuracy in all of our journalism.

By BILL BARROW, Associated Press ATLANTA (AP) — Jimmy Carter, the peanut farmer who won the presidency in the wake of the Watergate scandal and Vietnam War, endured humbling defeat after one tumultuous term and then redefined life after the White House as a global humanitarian, has died. He was 100 years old. The longest-lived American president died on Sunday, more than a year after entering hospice care , at his home in the small town of Plains, Georgia, where he and his wife, Rosalynn, who died at 96 in November 2023 , spent most of their lives, The Carter Center said. Businessman, Navy officer, evangelist, politician, negotiator, author, woodworker, citizen of the world — Carter forged a path that still challenges political assumptions and stands out among the 45 men who reached the nation’s highest office. The 39th president leveraged his ambition with a keen intellect, deep religious faith and prodigious work ethic, conducting diplomatic missions into his 80s and building houses for the poor well into his 90s. “My faith demands — this is not optional — my faith demands that I do whatever I can, wherever I am, whenever I can, for as long as I can, with whatever I have to try to make a difference,” Carter once said. A moderate Democrat, Carter entered the 1976 presidential race as a little-known Georgia governor with a broad smile, outspoken Baptist mores and technocratic plans reflecting his education as an engineer. His no-frills campaign depended on public financing, and his promise not to deceive the American people resonated after Richard Nixon’s disgrace and U.S. defeat in southeast Asia. “If I ever lie to you, if I ever make a misleading statement, don’t vote for me. I would not deserve to be your president,” Carter repeated before narrowly beating Republican incumbent Gerald Ford, who had lost popularity pardoning Nixon. Carter governed amid Cold War pressures, turbulent oil markets and social upheaval over racism, women’s rights and America’s global role. His most acclaimed achievement in office was a Mideast peace deal that he brokered by keeping Egyptian President Anwar Sadat and Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin at the bargaining table for 13 days in 1978. That Camp David experience inspired the post-presidential center where Carter would establish so much of his legacy. Yet Carter’s electoral coalition splintered under double-digit inflation, gasoline lines and the 444-day hostage crisis in Iran. His bleakest hour came when eight Americans died in a failed hostage rescue in April 1980, helping to ensure his landslide defeat to Republican Ronald Reagan. Carter acknowledged in his 2020 “White House Diary” that he could be “micromanaging” and “excessively autocratic,” complicating dealings with Congress and the federal bureaucracy. He also turned a cold shoulder to Washington’s news media and lobbyists, not fully appreciating their influence on his political fortunes. “It didn’t take us long to realize that the underestimation existed, but by that time we were not able to repair the mistake,” Carter told historians in 1982, suggesting that he had “an inherent incompatibility” with Washington insiders. Carter insisted his overall approach was sound and that he achieved his primary objectives — to “protect our nation’s security and interests peacefully” and “enhance human rights here and abroad” — even if he fell spectacularly short of a second term. Ignominious defeat, though, allowed for renewal. The Carters founded The Carter Center in 1982 as a first-of-its-kind base of operations, asserting themselves as international peacemakers and champions of democracy, public health and human rights. “I was not interested in just building a museum or storing my White House records and memorabilia,” Carter wrote in a memoir published after his 90th birthday. “I wanted a place where we could work.” That work included easing nuclear tensions in North and South Korea, helping to avert a U.S. invasion of Haiti and negotiating cease-fires in Bosnia and Sudan. By 2022, The Carter Center had declared at least 113 elections in Latin America, Asia and Africa to be free or fraudulent. Recently, the center began monitoring U.S. elections as well. Carter’s stubborn self-assuredness and even self-righteousness proved effective once he was unencumbered by the Washington order, sometimes to the point of frustrating his successors . He went “where others are not treading,” he said, to places like Ethiopia, Liberia and North Korea, where he secured the release of an American who had wandered across the border in 2010. “I can say what I like. I can meet whom I want. I can take on projects that please me and reject the ones that don’t,” Carter said. He announced an arms-reduction-for-aid deal with North Korea without clearing the details with Bill Clinton’s White House. He openly criticized President George W. Bush for the 2003 invasion of Iraq. He also criticized America’s approach to Israel with his 2006 book “Palestine: Peace Not Apartheid.” And he repeatedly countered U.S. administrations by insisting North Korea should be included in international affairs, a position that most aligned Carter with Republican President Donald Trump. Among the center’s many public health initiatives, Carter vowed to eradicate the guinea worm parasite during his lifetime, and nearly achieved it: Cases dropped from millions in the 1980s to nearly a handful. With hardhats and hammers, the Carters also built homes with Habitat for Humanity. The Nobel committee’s 2002 Peace Prize cites his “untiring effort to find peaceful solutions to international conflicts, to advance democracy and human rights, and to promote economic and social development.” Carter should have won it alongside Sadat and Begin in 1978, the chairman added. Carter accepted the recognition saying there was more work to be done. “The world is now, in many ways, a more dangerous place,” he said. “The greater ease of travel and communication has not been matched by equal understanding and mutual respect.” Carter’s globetrotting took him to remote villages where he met little “Jimmy Carters,” so named by admiring parents. But he spent most of his days in the same one-story Plains house — expanded and guarded by Secret Service agents — where they lived before he became governor. He regularly taught Sunday School lessons at Maranatha Baptist Church until his mobility declined and the coronavirus pandemic raged. Those sessions drew visitors from around the world to the small sanctuary where Carter will receive his final send-off after a state funeral at Washington’s National Cathedral. The common assessment that he was a better ex-president than president rankled Carter and his allies. His prolific post-presidency gave him a brand above politics, particularly for Americans too young to witness him in office. But Carter also lived long enough to see biographers and historians reassess his White House years more generously. His record includes the deregulation of key industries, reduction of U.S. dependence on foreign oil, cautious management of the national debt and notable legislation on the environment, education and mental health. He focused on human rights in foreign policy, pressuring dictators to release thousands of political prisoners . He acknowledged America’s historical imperialism, pardoned Vietnam War draft evaders and relinquished control of the Panama Canal. He normalized relations with China. “I am not nominating Jimmy Carter for a place on Mount Rushmore,” Stuart Eizenstat, Carter’s domestic policy director, wrote in a 2018 book. “He was not a great president” but also not the “hapless and weak” caricature voters rejected in 1980, Eizenstat said. Rather, Carter was “good and productive” and “delivered results, many of which were realized only after he left office.” Madeleine Albright, a national security staffer for Carter and Clinton’s secretary of state, wrote in Eizenstat’s forward that Carter was “consequential and successful” and expressed hope that “perceptions will continue to evolve” about his presidency. “Our country was lucky to have him as our leader,” said Albright, who died in 2022. Jonathan Alter, who penned a comprehensive Carter biography published in 2020, said in an interview that Carter should be remembered for “an epic American life” spanning from a humble start in a home with no electricity or indoor plumbing through decades on the world stage across two centuries. “He will likely go down as one of the most misunderstood and underestimated figures in American history,” Alter told The Associated Press. James Earl Carter Jr. was born Oct. 1, 1924, in Plains and spent his early years in nearby Archery. His family was a minority in the mostly Black community, decades before the civil rights movement played out at the dawn of Carter’s political career. Carter, who campaigned as a moderate on race relations but governed more progressively, talked often of the influence of his Black caregivers and playmates but also noted his advantages: His land-owning father sat atop Archery’s tenant-farming system and owned a main street grocery. His mother, Lillian , would become a staple of his political campaigns. Seeking to broaden his world beyond Plains and its population of fewer than 1,000 — then and now — Carter won an appointment to the U.S. Naval Academy, graduating in 1946. That same year he married Rosalynn Smith, another Plains native, a decision he considered more important than any he made as head of state. She shared his desire to see the world, sacrificing college to support his Navy career. Carter climbed in rank to lieutenant, but then his father was diagnosed with cancer, so the submarine officer set aside his ambitions of admiralty and moved the family back to Plains. His decision angered Rosalynn, even as she dived into the peanut business alongside her husband. Carter again failed to talk with his wife before his first run for office — he later called it “inconceivable” not to have consulted her on such major life decisions — but this time, she was on board. “My wife is much more political,” Carter told the AP in 2021. He won a state Senate seat in 1962 but wasn’t long for the General Assembly and its back-slapping, deal-cutting ways. He ran for governor in 1966 — losing to arch-segregationist Lester Maddox — and then immediately focused on the next campaign. Carter had spoken out against church segregation as a Baptist deacon and opposed racist “Dixiecrats” as a state senator. Yet as a local school board leader in the 1950s he had not pushed to end school segregation even after the Supreme Court’s Brown v. Board of Education decision, despite his private support for integration. And in 1970, Carter ran for governor again as the more conservative Democrat against Carl Sanders, a wealthy businessman Carter mocked as “Cufflinks Carl.” Sanders never forgave him for anonymous, race-baiting flyers, which Carter disavowed. Ultimately, Carter won his races by attracting both Black voters and culturally conservative whites. Once in office, he was more direct. “I say to you quite frankly that the time for racial discrimination is over,” he declared in his 1971 inaugural address, setting a new standard for Southern governors that landed him on the cover of Time magazine. His statehouse initiatives included environmental protection, boosting rural education and overhauling antiquated executive branch structures. He proclaimed Martin Luther King Jr. Day in the slain civil rights leader’s home state. And he decided, as he received presidential candidates in 1972, that they were no more talented than he was. In 1974, he ran Democrats’ national campaign arm. Then he declared his own candidacy for 1976. An Atlanta newspaper responded with the headline: “Jimmy Who?” The Carters and a “Peanut Brigade” of family members and Georgia supporters camped out in Iowa and New Hampshire, establishing both states as presidential proving grounds. His first Senate endorsement: a young first-termer from Delaware named Joe Biden. Yet it was Carter’s ability to navigate America’s complex racial and rural politics that cemented the nomination. He swept the Deep South that November, the last Democrat to do so, as many white Southerners shifted to Republicans in response to civil rights initiatives. A self-declared “born-again Christian,” Carter drew snickers by referring to Scripture in a Playboy magazine interview, saying he “had looked on many women with lust. I’ve committed adultery in my heart many times.” The remarks gave Ford a new foothold and television comedians pounced — including NBC’s new “Saturday Night Live” show. But voters weary of cynicism in politics found it endearing. Carter chose Minnesota Sen. Walter “Fritz” Mondale as his running mate on a “Grits and Fritz” ticket. In office, he elevated the vice presidency and the first lady’s office. Mondale’s governing partnership was a model for influential successors Al Gore, Dick Cheney and Biden. Rosalynn Carter was one of the most involved presidential spouses in history, welcomed into Cabinet meetings and huddles with lawmakers and top aides. The Carters presided with uncommon informality: He used his nickname “Jimmy” even when taking the oath of office, carried his own luggage and tried to silence the Marine Band’s “Hail to the Chief.” They bought their clothes off the rack. Carter wore a cardigan for a White House address, urging Americans to conserve energy by turning down their thermostats. Amy, the youngest of four children, attended District of Columbia public school. Washington’s social and media elite scorned their style. But the larger concern was that “he hated politics,” according to Eizenstat, leaving him nowhere to turn politically once economic turmoil and foreign policy challenges took their toll. Carter partially deregulated the airline, railroad and trucking industries and established the departments of Education and Energy, and the Federal Emergency Management Agency. He designated millions of acres of Alaska as national parks or wildlife refuges. He appointed a then-record number of women and nonwhite people to federal posts. He never had a Supreme Court nomination, but he elevated civil rights attorney Ruth Bader Ginsburg to the nation’s second highest court, positioning her for a promotion in 1993. He appointed Paul Volker, the Federal Reserve chairman whose policies would help the economy boom in the 1980s — after Carter left office. He built on Nixon’s opening with China, and though he tolerated autocrats in Asia, pushed Latin America from dictatorships to democracy. But he couldn’t immediately tame inflation or the related energy crisis. And then came Iran. After he admitted the exiled Shah of Iran to the U.S. for medical treatment, the American Embassy in Tehran was overrun in 1979 by followers of the Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini. Negotiations to free the hostages broke down repeatedly ahead of the failed rescue attempt. The same year, Carter signed SALT II, the new strategic arms treaty with Leonid Brezhnev of the Soviet Union, only to pull it back, impose trade sanctions and order a U.S. boycott of the Moscow Olympics after the Soviets invaded Afghanistan. Hoping to instill optimism, he delivered what the media dubbed his “malaise” speech, although he didn’t use that word. He declared the nation was suffering “a crisis of confidence.” By then, many Americans had lost confidence in the president, not themselves. Carter campaigned sparingly for reelection because of the hostage crisis, instead sending Rosalynn as Sen. Edward M. Kennedy challenged him for the Democratic nomination. Carter famously said he’d “kick his ass,” but was hobbled by Kennedy as Reagan rallied a broad coalition with “make America great again” appeals and asking voters whether they were “better off than you were four years ago.” Reagan further capitalized on Carter’s lecturing tone, eviscerating him in their lone fall debate with the quip: “There you go again.” Carter lost all but six states and Republicans rolled to a new Senate majority. Carter successfully negotiated the hostages’ freedom after the election, but in one final, bitter turn of events, Tehran waited until hours after Carter left office to let them walk free. At 56, Carter returned to Georgia with “no idea what I would do with the rest of my life.” Four decades after launching The Carter Center, he still talked of unfinished business. “I thought when we got into politics we would have resolved everything,” Carter told the AP in 2021. “But it’s turned out to be much more long-lasting and insidious than I had thought it was. I think in general, the world itself is much more divided than in previous years.” Still, he affirmed what he said when he underwent treatment for a cancer diagnosis in his 10th decade of life. “I’m perfectly at ease with whatever comes,” he said in 2015 . “I’ve had a wonderful life. I’ve had thousands of friends, I’ve had an exciting, adventurous and gratifying existence.” ___ Former Associated Press journalist Alex Sanz contributed to this report.

The shooting rattled the city and set off a massive dragnet hours before the annual Rockefeller Center Christmas tree lighting. Police say 50-year-old Brian Thompson was shot around 6:45 a.m. Wednesday as he walked alone to the New York Hilton Midtown from a nearby hotel. New York City Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch says the shooter appeared to be “lying in wait for several minutes” before approaching Thompson from behind and opening fire. Police have not yet established a motive. UnitedHealthcare CEO kept a low public profile. Then he was shot to death in New York NEW YORK (AP) — Brian Thompson led one of the biggest health insurers in the US but was unknown to millions of people his decisions affected. The fatal shooting of UnitedHealthcare's chief executive on a midtown Manhattan sidewalk Wednesday became a mystery that riveted the nation. Police say it was a targeted killing. Thompson was 50. He had worked at the company for 20 years and had run health care giant UnitedHealth Group Inc.'s insurance business since 2021. It provides health coverage for more than 49 million Americans and brought in $281 billion in revenue last year. Thompson's $10.2 million annual compensation made him one of the company’s highest-paid executives. Supreme Court seems likely to uphold Tennessee's ban on medical treatments for transgender minors WASHINGTON (AP) — Hearing a high-profile culture-war clash, the Supreme Court on Wednesday seemed likely to uphold Tennessee’s ban on gender-affirming care for minors. The justices’ decision, not expected for several months, could affect similar laws enacted by another 25 states and a range of other efforts to regulate the lives of transgender people, including which sports competitions they can join and which bathrooms they can use. The case is being weighed by a conservative-dominated court after a presidential election in which Donald Trump and his allies promised to roll back protections for transgender people. The Biden administration’s top Supreme Court lawyer warned a decision favorable to Tennessee also could be used to justify nationwide restrictions on transgender healthcare for minors. Hegseth fights to save Pentagon nomination as sources say Trump considers DeSantis WASHINGTON (AP) — Pete Hegseth, Donald Trump’s Pentagon pick, is fighting to hold on to his Cabinet nomination amid growing questions about his personal conduct as the president-elect’s team considers alternatives, including Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis. But Hegseth says, “We’re not backing down one bit." The Trump transition team is concerned about Hegseth’s path to Senate confirmation and is actively looking at potential replacements, according to a person familiar with the matter. Hegseth is under pressure as senators weigh a series of allegations that have surfaced against him. Beyond DeSantis, there have been discussions about shifting Michael Waltz, who was named by Trump as his national security adviser, to the Defense Department Israeli strikes on a Gaza tent camp kill at least 21 people, hospital says KHAN YOUNIS, Gaza Strip (AP) — A Palestinian health official said Wednesday that at least 21 people were killed in Israeli strikes on a camp housing displaced people in Gaza. The Israeli military said it struck senior Hamas militants. The strikes hit in the Muwasi area, a sprawling coastal camp housing hundreds of thousands of displaced people. It came after Israeli forces struck targets in other areas of Gaza. According to Palestinian medics, strikes in central Gaza killed eight people, including four children. The war in Gaza is nearly 14 months old and showing no end in sight, despite international efforts to revive negotiations toward a ceasefire. South Korean President Yoon's martial law declaration raises questions over his political future SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — President Yoon Suk Yeol’s stunning martial law declaration lasted just hours, but experts say it raised serious questions about his ability to govern for the remaining 2 1/2 years of his term. The opposition-controlled parliament overturned the edict, and his rivals on Wednesday took steps to impeach him. Yoon's move baffled many experts. One analyst called his action “political suicide.” Yoon’s political fate may depend on whether a large number of people in coming days take to the streets to push for his ouster. Yoon hasn't commented on the impeachment bid. But the political instability he unleashed could make it more difficult for his government to nurse a decaying economy. Police say searchers don’t expect to find woman in Pennsylvania sinkhole alive UNITY TOWNSHIP, Pa. (AP) — The search for a woman who is believed to have fallen into a sinkhole in western Pennsylvania has become a recovery effort after two treacherous days of digging through mud and rock produced no signs of life. Pennsylvania State Police spokesperson Trooper Steve Limani said during a news conference Wednesday that authorities no longer believe they will find 64-year-old Elizabeth Pollard alive, but that the search for her remains continues. Limani says crews have seen "no signs of any form of life or anything.” Pollard was last seen alive Monday evening when she went out looking for her cat in the village of Marguerite, about 40 miles east of Pittsburgh. Two students wounded and gunman dead after shooting at Northern California school PALERMO, Calif. (AP) — Sheriff’s officials say two students have been wounded in a shooting at a small religious school in Northern California and the gunman is dead. A Butte County Sheriff’s Office spokesperson says Wednesday the wounded students were taken to hospitals in unknown condition after the shooting at Feather River School of Seventh-Day Adventists in Palermo, north of Sacramento. The spokesperson says the suspect died after apparently shooting himself. A motive is unknown. French lawmakers vote to oust prime minister in the first successful no-confidence vote since 1962 PARIS (AP) — France’s far-right and left-wing lawmakers have joined together to vote on a no-confidence motion prompted by budget disputes that forces Prime Minister Michel Barnier and his Cabinet to resign. The National Assembly approved the motion by 331 votes. A minimum of 288 were needed. President Emmanuel Macron insisted he will serve the rest of his term until 2027. However, he will need to appoint a new prime minister for the second time after July’s legislative elections led to a deeply divided parliament. Macron will address the French on Thursday evening, his office said, without providing details. Barnier is expected to formally resign by then. White House says at least 8 US telecom firms, dozens of nations impacted by China hacking campaign WASHINGTON (AP) — A top White House official says at least eight U.S. telecom firms and dozens of nations have been impacted by a Chinese hacking campaign. Deputy national security adviser Anne Neuberger offered the new details Wednesday about the breadth of the sprawling Chinese hacking campaign that gave officials in Beijing access to private texts and phone conversations of an unknown number of Americans. Neuberger divulged the scope of the hack a day after the FBI and the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency issued guidance intended to help root out the hackers and prevent similar cyberespionage in the future. White House officials cautioned that a number of telecommunication firms and countries impacted could still grow.3. **Camera System**:
