PITTSFIELD — As Shirley Edgerton prepares to accept an award given to just six people in the state, she can’t help but reflect on the women who helped her along the way. Among those women: her grandmother, Lucille Session, who raised her and her siblings with an emphasis on independence and self-advocacy. “I often tell people [my sister and I] had two activities in our lives growing up: to attend church and go to school,” Edgerton laughed. “My grandmother was very focused on improving [our] lives and becoming self-sufficient and strong and independent — that’s who she was.” On Saturday, Edgerton will receive the MassArt Common Good Award , a recognition from the Massachusetts College of Art and Design that honors people who use the arts to “inspire advocacy, education and social transformation,” according to its website. This is the second year for the award, said MassArt President Mary K. Grant — it originated as part of the college’s 150th anniversary celebration in 2023. Edgerton will travel with a group of at least 15 mentors and mentees from the Rites of Passage and Empowerment, or R.O.P.E, program, to the MassArt Design and Media Center in Boston for an awards ceremony at noon Saturday, which is currently expecting over 300 attendees. In lieu of a plaque, Edgerton and the other award winners will receive a sculpture made by MassArt alum Sam Kim. For Edgerton, the recognition extends far beyond herself — she couldn’t impact the lives of young women and girls of color in Pittsfield without her team of fellow mentors, and she wouldn’t be doing the work if it wasn’t for the role models who guided her growing up. “I find it very moving,” Edgerton said. “I take recognitions like this very seriously. For me, it always causes me to think and be grateful for my life and for the fact that there were adults — women in particular — who poured into my life.” It was partly because of her grandmother’s insistence that Edgerton also become involved with the A.M.E. Zion Church in Mount Vernon, N.Y. There, her mentor Shirley Jackson helped her overcome her shyness as a child, and introduced her to travel. Thanks to Jackson’s influence, Edgerton became a youth leader at the church and toured historically Black colleges and universities, or HBCUs, for the first time. She kept in touch with Jackson and Betty Stith, a social worker and another of her mentors, as she began passing on the lessons they taught her to young women in the R.O.P.E. program, which she founded in 2010. “It was those women who constantly taught me and showed me the way and provided opportunities for me,” Edgerton said, noting that many of the program’s activities are based on lessons and experiences from her own life. The R.O.P.E. program takes a holistic approach, she said, embarking on service learning trips to Africa with its young scholars and providing guidance for them to seek a college education. During biweekly meetings, mentees are given lessons on women’s history and the arts, in addition to activities, meant to grow their self-esteem. “For us, this recognition is the fact that we try to make a tremendous difference and provide access and opportunities that some of these young women just would not have,” Edgerton said. “Whether it’s about the arts, whether it’s about higher education, whether it’s that global travel, that’s the impact we have on their lives.” Grant knows Edgerton’s work well — as the former president of the Massachusetts College of Liberal Arts, she saw Edgerton evolve the program from taking students on college visits via bus to attending vital cultural events and undergoing international travel. The common thread, Grant said, was showing young people everything that was possible for them. “Those are life-changing, confidence-building, really empowering activities that bring together art and education to make a difference in the lives of these young women and in the work that they’re doing,” Grant said. In addition to her time running R.O.P.E., Edgerton is also a co-founder of the Youth Alive program, which engages area youth aged 8 to 18 for music and dance education. She also led diversity, equity and inclusion efforts at the Pittsfield Public Schools until 2023. This year alone, the R.O.P.E. program has helped five women who will be graduating from college, Edgerton said — three of them will graduate from Howard University, one from Tuskegee University and one from Westfield State University. In the same way that she kept in touch with her mentors as she grew up, Edgerton said that she often hears from former students who have begun their adult lives. Those messages, whether they arrive through text messages or impact statements for a Giving Tuesday fundraising effort, are what keeps her going. “It just makes my day — makes my life,” Edgerton said. “Because I’m like, ‘Yeah, I’m serving my purpose. I’m doing what I’m supposed to do on this planet,’ you know?”NEW YORK (AP) — U.S. stocks climbed Thursday after market superstar Nvidia and another round of companies said they’re making even fatter profits than expected. The S&P 500 pulled 0.5% higher after flipping between gains and losses several times during the day. Banks, smaller companies and other areas of the stock market that tend to do best when the economy is strong helped lead the way, while bitcoin briefly broke above $99,000. Crude oil, meanwhile, continued to rise. The Dow Jones Industrial Average jumped 461 points, or 1.1%, and the Nasdaq composite edged up by less than 0.1%. Nvidia rose just 0.5% after beating analysts’ estimates for profit and revenue yet again, but it was still the strongest force pulling the S&P 500 upward. It also gave a forecast for revenue in the current quarter that topped most analysts’ expectations due to voracious demand for its chips used in artificial-intelligence technology. Its stock initially sank in afterhours trading Wednesday following the release of the results. Some investors said the market might have been looking for Nvidia’s revenue forecast to surpass expectations by even more. But its stock recovered in premarket trading Thursday, and Wedbush analyst Dan Ives said it was another “flawless” profit report provided by Nvidia and CEO Jensen Huang, whom Ives calls “the Godfather of AI.” The stock meandered through Thursday as well, dragging the S&P 500 and other indexes back and forth. How Nvidia’s stock performs has more impact than any other because it’s grown into Wall Street’s most valuable company at roughly $3.6 trillion. The frenzy around AI is sweeping up other stocks, and Snowflake jumped 32.7% after reporting stronger results for the latest quarter than analysts expected. The company, whose platform helps customers get a better view of all their silos of data and use AI, also reported stronger revenue growth than expected. BJ’S Wholesale Club rose 8.3% after likewise delivering a bigger profit than expected. That may help calm worries about how resilient U.S. shoppers can remain, given high prices across the economy and still-high interest rates. A day earlier, Target tumbled after reporting sluggish sales in the latest quarter and giving a dour forecast for the holiday shopping season. It followed Walmart , which gave a much more encouraging outlook. Nearly 90% of the stocks in the S&P 500 ended up rising Thursday, and the gains were even bigger among smaller companies. The Russell 2000 index of smaller stocks jumped a market-leading 1.7%. Google’s parent company, Alphabet, helped keep indexes in check. It fell 4.7% after U.S. regulators asked a judge to break up the tech giant by forcing it to sell its industry-leading Chrome web browser. In a 23-page document filed late Wednesday, the U.S. Department of Justice called for sweeping punishments that would include restrictions preventing Android from favoring its own search engine. Regulators stopped short of demanding Google sell Android but left the door open to it if the company’s oversight committee continues to see evidence of misconduct. All told, the S&P 500 rose 31.60 points to 5,948.71. The Dow jumped 461.88 to 43,870.35, and the Nasdaq composite added 6.28 to 18,972.42. In the crypto market, bitcoin eclipsed $99,000 for the first time before pulling back toward $98,000, according to CoinDesk. It’s more than doubled so far this year, and its climb has accelerated since Election Day. President-elect Donald Trump has pledged to make the country “the crypto capital of the planet” and create a “strategic reserve” of bitcoin. Bitcoin got a further boost after Gary Gensler, the chair of the Securities and Exchange Commission, said Thursday he would step down in January . Gensler has pushed for more protections for crypto investors. Bitcoin and related investment have a notorious history of big price swings in both directions. MicroStrategy, a company that’s been raising cash expressly to buy bitcoin, saw an early Thursday gain of 14.6% for its stock quickly disappear. It finished the day with a loss of 16.2%. In the oil market, a barrel of benchmark U.S. crude rose 2% to bring its gain for the week to 4.8%. Brent crude, the international standard, climbed 1.8%. Oil has been rising amid escalations in the Russia-Ukraine war. In stock markets abroad, shares of India’s Adani Enterprises plunged 22.6% Thursday after the U.S. charged founder Gautam Adani in a federal indictment with securities fraud and conspiracy to commit securities and wire fraud. The businessman and one of the world’s richest people is accused of concealing that his company’s huge solar energy project on the subcontinent was being facilitated by an alleged bribery scheme. Stock indexes elsewhere in Asia and Europe were mixed. In the bond market, the yield on the 10-year Treasury inched up to 4.43% from 4.41% late Wednesday following some mixed reports on the U.S. economy. One said fewer U.S. workers applied for unemployment benefits last week in the latest signal that the job market remains solid. Another report, though, said manufacturing in the mid-Atlantic region unexpectedly shrank. Sales of previously occupied homes, meanwhile, strengthened last month by more than expected.

SAN FRANCISCO – Several times during timeouts in the fourth quarter of Thursday’s game against the Houston Rockets, Stephen Curry and Draymond Green implored Jonathan Kuminga to get the ball. Kuminga did exactly that in a monumental way. > Watch NBC Bay Area News 📺 Streaming free 24/7 The No. 7 overall pick in the 2021 NBA draft , Kuminga scored 14 of his career-high 33 points in the fourth quarter, including a crucial driving layup with 16.9 seconds remaining to help the Warriors to a 99-93 victory over the Rockets. “They trusted me, and that kind of helped me to get confident,” Kuminga said. “I took a deep breath and just went out there and took care of the ball.” Kuminga was brilliant in the fourth quarter. He repeatedly made good on his patented powerful drives, connected on a par of middys and had an assist in the final 12 minutes. In essence, Kuminga filled the role of closer while Golden State's go-to closers – Curry and Green – watched and cheered from the bench. “He showed that he can do it,” Warriors center Kevon Looney said. “He showed that he can score, get to the rim, get to the foul line when we need him to. That’s going to be a part of our evolution as a team, him stepping up and (Andrew Wiggins) stepping up to be able to score for us in the fourth quarter and not depending on Steph the whole time." Houston went into the night with the second-best record in the Western Conference while the Warriors were riding a five-game losing streak. With Curry and Green nursing injuries and unavailable to play, the Warriors were minus their two best players in crunch time. Passes that would normally go to those two for clutch shots wound up in Kuminga’s hands, and he delivered first class. “A good learning lesson,” Kuminga said. “Obviously we go to Steph most of the time. Just havig that experience of knowing what you need to do out there anytime, even when Steph comes back and Draymond comes back. You never know when moments like that will come around.” For a good chunk of the season the Warriors have had a tough time closing out games, and for a few moments it looked like the Rockets would add another disappointing chapter when the closed a seven-point lead to 77-76 early in the fourth quarter. That’s when Kuminga began his scoring blitz but it wasn’t until the final minute that he really shined. After Houston got within 96-93 in the final minute, Warriors coach Steve Kerr called timeout and drew up a play for Kuminga. Career-high 33 for JK 😮‍💨 pic.twitter.com/ipW1G2Za9m Kuminga once again got the ball and attacked, driving right between Rockets’ defenders Fred Van Vleet and Dillon Brooks to score. “He was having a great night and it was a no-brainer to get him the ball,” Kerr said. “JK just made the play. He got a couple of ghost screens, one from Buddy (Hield), one from Brandin (Podziemski), just to try to confuse the switch a little bit. JK just attacked, and that was the play of the game. “It was just a beautiful drive and capped off a phenomenal night for him. He was brilliant.” Download and follow the Dubs Talk PodcastBiden calls for Assad to be 'held accountable'EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J.

By Riazat Butt | Associated Press ISLAMABAD — Supporters seeking the release of imprisoned Pakistani former Prime Minister Imran Khan broke through a ring of shipping containers blocking off the capital on Tuesday, and battled security forces despite a government threat to respond with gunfire. Six people have died in the violence. Thousands of security forces have poured into central Islamabad in an attempt to quell protests in support of Khan that have gripped the capital and its surrounding areas since Sunday. The popular politician has been in jail for over a year and faces more than 150 criminal cases that his party says are politically motivated. Authorities say only courts can order the release of Khan, who was ousted in 2022 through a no-confidence vote in Parliament. He has been imprisoned since his first conviction in a graft case in August 2023. On Tuesday, Pakistan’s army took control of D-Chowk, a large square in downtown Islamabad’s Red Zone, which houses key government buildings and where visiting Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko is staying . Paramilitary rangers and police were also out in force and some fired warning shots into the air. Still, Khan’s wife, Bushra Bibi, who is leading the protests, made slow progress toward the square in a heavily guarded convoy, surrounded by well-wishers. Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi threatened that security forces would respond with live fire if protesters fired weapons at them. “We have now allowed police to take any decision according to the situation,” Naqvi said later while visiting the square. Protester Shahzor Ali said people were on the streets because Khan had called for them to be there. “We will stay here until Khan is among us. He will decide what to do next,” Ali said.”If they again fire bullets, the bullet will be responded with the bullet,” he said. Protester Fareeda Bibi, who is not related to Khan’s wife, said people have suffered greatly for the last two years. “We have really suffered for the last two years, whether it is economically, politically or socially. We have been ruined. I have not seen such a Pakistan in my life,” she said. Police so far have used tear gas in an attempt to disperse the crowds. The dead include four members of the security services and one civilian who were killed when a vehicle rammed them on a street overnight into Tuesday. Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif denounced the attack, saying an “anarchist group” was deliberately targeting law enforcement personnel. There was no claim of responsibility for the ramming. A police officer died separately. Scores of people have also been injured, including journalists who were attacked by demonstrators. Dozens of Khan supporters beat a videographer covering the protest for The Associated Press and took his camera. He sustained head injuries and was treated in a hospital. Pakistani media have mostly stopped filming and photographing the rally, instead focusing on the security measures and the city’s deserted streets. By Tuesday afternoon, fresh waves of protesters made their way unopposed to their final destination in the Red Zone. Most demonstrators had the flag of Khan’s party, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf, around their shoulders or wore its tricolors on accessories. Naqvi said Khan’s party rejected a government offer to rally on the outskirts of the city. Information Minister Atta Tarar warned there would be a severe government reaction to the violence. He said the government did not want Bushra Bibi to achieve her goal of freeing Khan. “She wants bodies falling to the ground. She wants bloodshed,” he said. In a bid to foil the unrest, police have arrested more than 4,000 Khan supporters since Friday and suspended mobile and internet services in some parts of the country and messaging platforms were also experiencing severe disruption in the capital.

On Thursday, a court prohibited rallies in the capital and Naqvi said anyone violating the ban would be arrested. Travel between Islamabad and other cities has become nearly impossible because of shipping containers blocking the roads. All educational institutions remain closed. Pakistan’s Stock Exchange lost more than $1.7 billion Tuesday due to rising political tensions, according to economist Mohammed Sohail from Topline Securities.

WASHINGTON The fall of the Syrian regime represents "a fundamental act of justice,' US President Joe Biden said Sunday after opposition groups ended over five decades of Assad family rule. The US president said blows dealt to Russia by Ukraine prevented the Kremlin from intervening to prop up ousted Syrian President Bashar al-Assad and said Iran and Lebanese Hezbollah were unable to do so as well after being weakened following conflicts with Israel. "At long last, the Assad regime has fallen. This regime brutalized, tortured, and killed literally hundreds of thousands of innocent Syrians. The fall of the regime is a fundamental act of justice," Biden said in nationally televised remarks delivered from the White House. "It's a moment of historic opportunity for the long-suffering people of Syria to build a better future for their proud country. It's also a moment of risk and uncertainty, as we all turn to the question of what comes next. The United States will work with our partners and the stakeholders in Syria to help them seize an opportunity to manage the risks," he added. Biden said the US does not currently know Assad's location but said he "should be held accountable" for crimes that took place while he was in power. Russia's state news agency TASS said Assad and his family arrived in Moscow, where they have been granted political asylum. After a period of relative calm, clashes between Assad regime forces and anti-regime groups reignited on Nov. 27 in rural areas west of Aleppo, a major city in northern Syria. Over 10 days, opposition forces launched a lightning offensive, capturing key cities and then, on Sunday, the capital, Damascus. The rapid advance, supported by defecting military units, led to the collapse of the Assad regime after 13 years of civil war. Assad and his family had ruled Syria since 1971, and Biden said the US will now "engage with all Syrian groups, including within the process led by the United Nations, to establish a transition away from the Assad regime toward" an independent Syria "with a new constitution, a new government that serves all Syrians." "This process will be determined by the Syrian people themselves. The United States will do whatever we can to support them, including through humanitarian relief, to help restore Syria after more than a decade of war and generations of brutality by the Assad family," he said. "We will remain vigilant. Make no mistake: some of the rebel groups that took down Assad have their own grim record of terrorism and human rights abuses. We've taken note of statements by the leaders of these rebel groups in recent days, and they're saying the right things now, but as they take on greater responsibility, we will assess not just their words, but their actions," he added. Biden said the US has carried out dozens of precision airstrikes in Syria targeting what he called "ISIS camps and ISIS operatives."

Tournament of Roses leader reflects in the weeks before New Year’s Day – and ‘the Best Day Ever!’EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) — Snapping a franchise-record 10-game losing streak, winning for the first time at home this season and ending the Indianapolis Colts' slim playoff hopes Sunday didn't salvage the season for the New York Giants. The main positive in the 45-33 win that Drew Lock led with four touchdown passes and a late TD run was the Giants (3-13) got to walk off the field with smiles for the first time in months after a season of misery that will could lead to major changes. Another factor from the win: New York no longer has control of the No. 1 overall pick in the draft. Giants coach Brian Daboll, who has had two straight losing seasons following a playoff berth in 2022 in his first year, said that he was happy the team got a chance to celebrate after losing eight straight at MetLife Stadium. “Those guys put a lot into it. They come out, they grind every day. They have good attitudes,” Daboll said. “It’s never easy when you when are losing. But I’m proud of the character and all the people in the building, and I’m mostly happy for them.” Lock, who threw two pick-6s in the loss to Atlanta a week ago, sandwiched touchdown passes of 31 and 59 yards to Malik Nabers around TD passes of 32 yards to Darius Slayton and 5 yards to Wan'Dale Robinson in leading the Giants (3-13) to their first win since beating Seattle on Oct. 6. “I've won a lot in my life,” Slayton said. "I wouldn’t say I ever forget the feeling of winning, but, you know, obviously it’s nice to get that feeling back today.” Ihmir Smith-Marsette had a 100-yard return on the second-half kickoff on a day the league's worst offense set a season high for points. Jonathan Taylor scored on runs of 3 and 26 yards for Indianapolis (7-9), while Joe Flacco, subbing for the injured Anthony Richardson, threw touchdown passes of 13 yards to Alec Pierce and 7 yards to Michael Pittman, the last bringing the Colts within 35-33 with 6:38 left in the fourth quarter. Lock, who finished 17 of 23 for 309 yards, clinched the game by leading a nine-play, 70-yard drive that he capped with a 5-yard run. “It’s kudos to him,” said Nabers, who now has 104 catches for 1,140 yards and six touchdowns. “He looked over the film, found some things that he could get better on and did all that through the week, and it showed how good he can be.” The 45 points were the most for New York since putting up 49 in a 52-49 loss to the Saints in 2015. It’s the Giants most in a win since a 45-14 rout against Washington in 2014 and most at home since a 52-27 win against the Saints in 2012. The No. 6 overall pick in the draft, Nabers finished with seven catches for a career-high 171 yards. “That’s why we drafted him, where we drafted him,” Daboll said. “I’ve been asked about it since training camp and I think the response has been, ‘He’s a pretty good football player.’” Flacco was 26 of 38 for 330 yards with two interceptions, the second by rookie Dru Phillips shortly after Lock's TD run. Taylor, who rushed for 218 yards in a win over Tennessee last week, finished with 125 yards on 32 carries. Pierce had six catches for 122 yards. The Colts came into the game needing to win their final two games and also get help to make the playoffs. “We had something to play for today and obviously we didn’t get it done," Flacco said. The Colts haven't made the playoffs since posting an 11-5 record in 2020. “It's hard to explain,” said Colts coach Shane Steichen, who led the team to a 9-8 record in his first season in 2023. “We had to play a complete game. We haven’t done it all year. We have to be on the same page, and to go out there like that is obviously not good enough.” Nabers and running back Tyrone Tracy become the third pair of rookies to have more than 1,000 yards from scrimmage in the same season. The previous duo was running back Reggie Bush and receiver Marques Colston of the Saints in 2006. Colts: Richardson was inactive with foot and back injuries sustained against Tennessee. Giants: DL Armon Watts (knee) was ruled out in the first half. Colts: Finish the regular season by hosting Jacksonville. Giants: At Philadelphia to face Saquon Barkley and the Eagles.
