(AP) — Following his team’s latest setback, a season-worst 40-7 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers, Patriots coach Jerod Mayo didn’t hold his tongue about what continue to be New England’s most glaring deficiencies. “This is what I told the players, there’s really nothing good to take out of that game today. Just the lack of execution,” Mayo said Saturday to begin his postgame news conference. “We just didn’t play well enough in any phase of the game. No complementary football, and that’s what you get.” At 3-13 with a game to go, this has been a lost season for New England. And that frustration is showing in a locker room that has faith in its coach but also recognizes that major offseason changes are likely coming for a team that has failed to meet even modest expectations this season. “I don’t want to use the same excuse, everyone says, ‘Oh, it’s a young team,’” cornerback Jonathan Jones said. “But it’s just learning that everything’s not going to go your way. That’s in football, in life, how you respond to that adversity is what type of team you’re going to have.” Receiver Demario Douglas expects the roster to look much different next season. “I feel like my two years I’ve been losing, and I feel like it’s time to make a change,” Douglas said. “We’ve got some pieces, we’ll add more pieces next year, and I feel like we could come out and do something. I’m trying to be in the playoffs, I’m trying to go for a run and have a winning season. I’m just tired of losing for real.” What’s working The Patriots currently are in position to secure the No. 1 pick in the 2025 NFL draft. That could change with a game to go, but it’s a valuable position for a team that appears set at quarterback with rookie Drake Maye and has several needs to fill. What needs help Turnovers continue to plague the Patriots. They had just one on Saturday, a fumble on a botched pitch by Maye. That’s at least one turnover in eight straight games for the rookie. Stock up Offensive lineman Cole Strange made his first start of the season a week after returning from injured reserve following offseason knee surgery. Strange, who played his first 27 NFL games at guard, started at center after Ben Brown was placed in IR with a concussion. Stock down Cole’s presence didn’t help the Patriots’ struggling offensive line, which allowed four sacks and five quarterback hits on Maye. New England has allowed 51 sacks, the fifth most in the NFL. Injuries Maye was evaluated for a head injury in the first quarter but returned. CB Christian Gonzalez left the game with a concussion. Key number 1-6 — The Patriots’ record at home this season. They are 2-14 at Gillette Stadium over the past two seasons. Next steps New England hosts AFC East champion Buffalo next weekend in its season finale. ___ AP NFL: https://apnews.com/hub/nfl

Philadelphia Police are on the hunt for another alleged organizer of the chaotic car meetups that turned violent two months ago, while they also announced a tenth arrest in the case. Police Inspector Raymond Evers on Monday announced the arrest of Ezra Walker, 20, of Enola, Pennsylvania, who authorities say was involved in the mayhem on the night of Saturday, Sept. 21 and early morning of Sunday, Sept. 22. Philadelphia news 24/7: Watch NBC10 free wherever you are Walker was arrested after his blue Chevrolet Camaro was found and confiscated from his place of employment near Reading, Evers said. The blue Camaro was identified by police as the same vehicle seen in video footage drifting at 25th Street and Pennsylvania Avenue, near the Philadelphia Museum of Art. "He was active in the car meet and arrested last Thursday, and his car is still in our custody," Evers said. Police have also issued an arrest warrant for Sam Hoffman, a 19-year-old from Reading, Pa. who police allege was a "promoter" of the car meet that night. "[Hoffman] was involved in sharing content -- he monetized, was making money off of being a promoter," Evers said, adding that he used Instagram to promote and earn money off of the meetups. The series of chaotic car meetups occurred in a seven-hour span in Philadelphia in which officers were attacked, fires were set and vehicles were vandalized. Breaking news and the stories that matter to your neighborhood. "You are not going to attack my police officers," Philadelphia Police Commissioner Kevin Bethel said during a press conference on Thursday, Nov. 7. "You’re not going to jump on our cars. And you’re not going to treat us and devalue the work that we do each and every day." "We’re here to serve the men and women of this community. But what I will not allow is my officers to be attacked by individuals who just want to come out and race around our city," Bethel said. "If you want to engage in this activity, you may get me the first time but I’m going to get you." On Monday, Evers reiterated the emphasis placed on this case by Philadelphia Police. "We still have more to go, Evers said. "As investigators would say, there's still meat on the bone and we will be looking for other individuals. We know there were 11 or 12 different locations -- we're using technology to figure out who was at the individual car meets throughout the city. We'll be sending target letters out to those individuals working with the district attorney's office." "We're taking a very, very strong stance on this. We've taken 32 cars, we've locked up ten people, and there's more people to be arrested." A night of chaos The car meetups took place between the night of Saturday, Sept. 21, 2024, and the early morning hours of Sunday, Sept. 22, 2024. The first meetup began Sept. 21, at 9:30 p.m. on the 7400 block of Bustleton Avenue where around 50 cars were involved, police said. One of the drivers involved tried to evade police and drove directly at officers, crashing into a civilian’s vehicle in the process, investigators said. The second meetup occurred at 11:47 p.m. on 20 th Street and Pattison Avenue where over 100 vehicles were involved in reckless driving and drifting, police said. Then, at midnight, a police officer spotted a silver Nissan doing donuts in the middle of the street in the area of Columbus Boulevard and Pattison Avenue. The Nissan then moved towards the officer’s vehicle, police said. The officer managed to get out of the way and then followed the Nissan until it struck a pole on 300 Pattison Avenue, investigators said. Four males then fled from the Nissan. At 1:30 a.m., police responded to a report of gunshots on 25 th Street and Washington Avenue. When they arrived, they were met by a woman who said several cars were in the intersection when she was attacked by another woman and a man who threw an orange traffic cone at her, knocking her to the ground. As the woman spoke with the officers, they heard another gunshot coming from the direction of cars in the street. The vehicles fled the area and police recovered a spent shell casing and a live round. At 2:25 a.m., police responded to 11 th Street and Grange Avenue where there was an unruly crowd of people and a large group of cars. The responding officers were unable to disperse the crowd and were briefly surrounded, police said. One of the officers then called for backup and the crowd was dispersed once more police arrived. There were no reports of injuries, arrests or property damage at that location. At 4 a.m., police responded to Island and Bartram avenues where over 200 cars were involved in drag racing and drifting. The officers were attacked and a police vehicle was damaged, investigators said. The crowd dispersed once more police arrived. Finally, at 4:33 a.m., officers responded to 15 th and Market streets in Center City where more than 100 cars were drifting and members of a crowd were setting rubbish fires, investigators said. The responding officers were attacked and multiple police vehicles were damaged with broken windshields and flattened tires, police said. Arrests in car meetups Utilizing technology and witnesses, police identified 50 vehicles involved in the car meetups and recovered 31 of them. Deonte Vincent, 25, was arrested and charged in connection to the incident on Bustleton Avenue . On Oct. 23, 20-year-old David French was arrested in connection to one of the incidents and charged with rioting and other offenses. Vanore said French had previously been cited in March for drag racing on Cottman Avenue. Joseph Cavanaugh, 21, of Levittown, Pennsylvania, and James Hare, 20, of Philadelphia, were both arrested on Friday, Oct. 25, in connection to the illegal car meetups. Cavanaugh, who was arrested on Coral Lane in Levittown, is charged with aggravated assault, causing risking catastrophe, criminal mischief, RIOT, criminal conspiracy, recklessly endangering another person, simple assault, fleeing a police officer, disorderly conduct-hazard and reckless driving. Hare, who was arrested on Bustleton Avenue in Philadelphia, is charged with causing risking catastrophe, RIOT, recklessly endangering another person, criminal conspiracy, possessing an instrument of crime, fleeing a police officer, criminal mischief, disorderly conduct-hazard and reckless driving. Police described Cavanaugh of the organizer of the car meetups and Hare as a participant. "Joseph Cavanaugh's social media was identified as being the creator of 'Project X,'" Deputy Commissioner Vanore said on Friday, Nov. 8. "He was the promoter of the car meetup. He was utilizing his social media. He was making money." Vanore said Cavanaugh encouraged people in Philadelphia, New York, New Jersey and Delaware to participate in the meetups. According to investigators, of the nine people who were arrested, only three are from Philadelphia. The others are from Maryland, Pittsburgh, the Pennsylvania suburbs and New Jersey, officials said. Police said the most recent arrest occurred on Nov. 7. Juawan Williams, 21, of Maryland, was arrested and charged with filming the car meetups by illegally flying a drone within the city and then posting the videos to social media. Police said they are working with Meta to shut down the websites that paid for and posted the drone footage. Despite the arrests, police continue to investigate all of the incidents that occurred. "We ain't gonna stop," Bethel said. "We're going to lock up every person who came into our city, disrespected my men and women, disrespected our city and what we stand for." If you have any information on the car meetups, call Philadelphia Police at 215-686-TIPS (8477).After lopsided loss, Patriots recognize an offseason roster overhaul is likely

Until now, Ms Weinstein has been the US firm’s vice president and managing director in the UK and Ireland, having previously worked at Unilever. She said her focus will be on “unlocking AI-powered growth for everyone”, calling the current AI boom a “pivotal” time for the tech giant. Google has joined many of its rivals in launching a string of high-profile generative AI products in recent times, led by the firm’s generative AI-powered assistant, Gemini. “Europe, the Middle East and Africa is an amazingly diverse and varied region, but the enormous growth opportunity that AI can create is universal,” she said. “My focus will be on unlocking that AI-powered growth for everyone – users, businesses, partners and governments across every part of the region. “I’m excited to be stepping into this role at a pivotal time, in a company where I’ve spent the last ten years and leading a region where I’ve spent much of my life.” Google employs more than 29,000 people across Europe, the Middle East and Africa, with 56 offices across 35 countries in those regions working on many of the firm’s largest products, including its search engine, the Android mobile operating system and its Chrome web browser.

BARCELONA, Spain — Tens of thousands of Spaniards marched in downtown Barcelona to protest the skyrocketing cost of renting an apartment in the popular tourist destination. Protesters cut off traffic on main avenues in the city center on Saturday, holding up homemade signs in Spanish reading, “Fewer apartments for investing and more homes for living” and “The people without homes uphold their rights.” The lack of affordable housing has become one of the leading concerns for the southern European Union country, mirroring the housing crunch across many parts of the world, including the United States. Organizers said that more than 100,000 had turned out, while Barcelona’s police said they estimated some 22,000 marched. Either way, the throngs of people clogging the streets recalled the massive separatist rallies at the height of the previous decade’s Catalan independence movement. Now, social concerns led by housing have displaced political crusades. That is because the average rent for Spain has doubled in last 10 years. The price per square meter has risen from 7.2 euros ($7.50) in 2014 to 13 euros this year, according to the popular online real estate website Idealista. The growth is even more acute in cities like Barcelona and Madrid. Incomes have failed to keep up, especially for younger people in a country with chronically high unemployment. Protester Samuel Saintot said he is “frustrated and scared” after being told by the owners of the apartment he has rented for the last 15 years in Barcelona’s city center that he must vacate the premises. He suspects that the owners want him out so they can renovate it and boost the price. “Even looking in a 20- or 30-kilometer radius outside town, I can’t even find anything within the price range I can afford,” he told the Associated Press. “And I consider myself a very fortunate person, because I earn a decent salary. And even in my case, I may be forced to leave town.” A report by the Bank of Spain indicates that nearly 40% of Spaniards who rent dedicate an average of 40% of their income to paying rents and utilities, compared with the European Union average of 27% of renters who do so. “We are talking about a housing emergency. It means people having many difficulties both in accessing and staying in their homes,” said Ignasi Martí, professor for Esade business school and head of its Dignified Housing Observatory. The rise in rents is causing significant pain in Spain, where traditionally people seek to own their homes. Rental prices have also been driven up by short-term renters including tourists . Many migrants to Spain are also disproportionately hit by the high rents because they often do not have enough savings. Spain is near the bottom end of OECD countries with under 2% of all housing available being public housing for rent. The OECD average is 7%. Spain is far behind France, with 14%, Britain with 16% and the Netherlands with 34%. Carme Arcarazo, spokesperson for Barcelona’s Tenants Union, which helped organize the protest, said that renters should consider a “rent strike” and cease paying their monthly rents in a mass protest movement. “I think we the tenants have understood that this depends on us. That we can’t keep asking and making demands to the authorities and waiting for an answer. We must take the reins of the situation,” Arcarazo told the AP. “So, if they [the owners] won’t lower the rent, then we will force them to do it.” The Barcelona protest came a month after tens of thousands rallied against high rents in Madrid. The rising discontent over housing is putting pressure on Spain’s governing Socialist party, which leads a coalition on the national level and is in charge of Catalonia’s regional government and Barcelona’s city hall. Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez presided over what the government termed a “housing summit” including government officials and real estate developers last month. But the Barcelona’s Tenants Union boycotted the event, saying it was like calling a summit for curing cancer and inviting tobacco companies to participate. The leading government measure has been a rent cap mechanism that the central government has offered to regional authorities based on a price index established by the housing ministry. Rent controls can be applied to areas deemed to be “highly stressed” by high rental prices. Catalonia was the first region to apply those caps, which are in place in downtown Barcelona. Many locals blame the millions of tourists who visit Barcelona, and the rest of Spain, each year for the high prices. Barcelona’s town hall has pledged to completely eliminate the city’s 10,000 so-called “tourist apartments,” or dwellings with permits for short-term rents, by 2028. Wilson and Muñoz write for the Associated Press.

The Marshall Lions Club welcomed Daphne Skinner on Nov. 12. Skinner serves as the account manager for LifeShare Blood Center of Shreveport-Bossier. She was in attendance to share information regarding their organization and details surrounding the upcoming partnership in which Marshall Lions Club will conduct a blood drive on Friday, Dec. 27 from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. While a lot of East Texas donors utilize Carter BloodCare for their blood drives, Skinner is passionate about LifeShare due to its close proximity to the nearest trauma centers outside of Dallas. Also, LifeShare is a member of America’s Blood Centers and only one of 60 processors world-wide of rare blood types. LifeShare was established in Shreveport in 1942 and today, the organization regularly supplies blood components and related services to more than 100 medical facilities and hospitals throughout Louisiana, East Texas and South Arkansas. According to Skinner, within the United States only 65% of the population is eligible to donate blood and of that percentage, only 3% actually donate. That is a staggering statistic considering that 33% of the population will require blood at some point during their lifetime. The donation of blood does save lives. In fact, a donation of one pint of blood will save approximately three lives, and one teaspoon of that blood can save an infant as well. While the world has witnessed countless technological changes, there is no way to manufacture blood. As a result, only human blood may be utilized on humans. Today, most blood that is donated comes from schools and universities, which results in low supplies during summer and winter months. If you couple the prevalence of cold and flu season during winter months, the Marshall Lions Club’s blood drive on Dec. 27 is timely to keep blood supply stable for those in need. Prior to becoming part of the LifeShare team, Skinner was unaware of the low numbers that donate across the country. For that reason, she encourages those within Marshall Lions Club to spread the word to make the upcoming blood drive truly a blessing for others. As an update for our military families, Skinner enthusiastically shared that those that served in Europe are now eligible to donate. Based upon updated scientific evidence, the Food and Drug Administration updated guidelines for “mad cow” disease, which means that most people, who traveled, lived or had a transfusion in Europe, including the United Kingdom, Ireland and France, from 1980 to present are now eligible to donate blood. As she closed, Skinner looks forward to the blood drive in December 2024. The drive will be conducted at The Cammack Family Director of Funerals parking lot on the corner of South Washington and Travis streets. As a parting gift, donors that participate in the blood drive will receive a LifeShare Christmas sweater. For those in the community, a donor may give a blood donation every 56 days unless a person provides a double red cell (2RBC) donation, and the interval between donations extends to 112 days. If interested in learning more LifeShare, please visit www.lifeshare.org . Those interested in learning more about Marshall Lions Club and/or becoming a Lion can attend a noon Tuesday meeting in the Panola Harrison Cooperative Building located at 410 E. Houston St. in Marshall or visit them at https://e-clubhouse.org/sites/marshalltx/index.php .

Open Text Corp. stock rises Wednesday, still underperforms marketJim Rossman | Tribune News Service Cord cutting used to refer to abandoning pay TV and putting up an antenna to watch free over-the-air TV. Then cord cutting expanded to include streaming services like Netflix and Hulu and individual streaming sources. Related Articles San Jose Sharks debut catchy sequel video to ‘Holiday Sweater’ Gift ideas for people planning their next trip Lights and decor, réveillon meals make Christmastime special in New Orleans Why American travelers are choosing Europe for Christmas Jaw-dropping holiday light displays worth the trip this December Now we also include streaming bundles, like YouTube TV or Hulu Live or DirecTV Stream. These bundled services mimic cable and satellite service, in that they have hundreds of channels. The ease or complexity of the cord cutting experience depends on how you have things set up. Let’s take a look at some gift options for your favorite cord cutter. As far as I know DirecTV is the only streaming bundle service that offers its own hardware. The Gemini Air is a small dongle that plugs into an HDMI port on your TV. It is paired with a remote control to allow for easy navigation. If you were an AT&T U-Verse TV customer, the Gemini Air/DirecTV Stream experience will be very familiar. The Gemini Air is a rarity in that it has number buttons. DirecTV Stream has the option of turning on channel numbers in the guide. I’ve used DirecTV Stream with my Roku TV and with the Gemini Air and the Air makes navigating the huge list of channels much easier. The Gemini Air runs the Google operating system, so you can see and use all your other streaming services like Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime, Max and more. You can also load apps and games from the Google Play store. The Gemini Air connects to your home’s Wi-Fi network, and it can stream 4K content to your TV. The remote control has a microphone so you can use your voice to search or interact with Hey Google’s voice assistant. DirecTV Stream customers can get a free Gemini Air from AT&T with their service. Additional units are available for $120. There are lots of smart TV brands. Some run on the Roku operating system, some run Google TV and some use their own brand of smart TV apps. If you’d like to add Google TV to any set, you can get Google’s new TV Streamer (4K) for just $99 from store.google.com. The small device connects to your TV’s HDMI port. It also can connect to your home’s internet via Wi-Fi or wired Ethernet connection. The Google TV interface is not tied to any specific streaming service. You can use any streaming service or app that’s available on the Google Play store. It features a simple remote with voice control and the Google TV Streamer is also a hub and controller for Matter and Thread home devices that work with Google’s home ecosystem. If you use an over-the-air antenna for watching your free local channels, I’m betting you’d like the option to record those channels. TiVo used to be the best/easiest way to record OTA TV, but they’ve discontinued their OTA recorders. A great alternative is from TabloTV, which is a small box that you connect to your TV antenna. The TabloTV does not directly connect to your TV. Instead it connects to your home’s Wi-Fi, and the antenna signal is wirelessly sent to any TV or compatible device in your home. Your TV picks up the signal through a free app, which is compatible with smart TV brands like Samsung, LG, Google TV, Roku, Apple TV, Amazon Fire TV or Android TV. This method is extremely handy if you don’t want to be bothered running an antenna wire from your attic or roof all the way to your TV. It’s also great if you want to use an indoor antenna, but your TV is not situated in a room that faces the broadcast towers. You can place the antenna and TabloTV where you get the best reception. The TabloTV comes in two models – with either two or four tuners. This means you can record or watch two or four shows at a time. TabloTV has onboard storage to record up to 50 hours of shows, but you can plug in any USB hard drive and expand to record thousands of hours of programming.

In conclusion, the unfolding developments in South Korea underscore the fragility of democratic governance and the importance of upholding the principles of civilian control over the military. The Defense Ministry's assertion of the military's allegiance to the Constitution and Defense Minister Suh Wook's leadership signals a commitment to stability and continuity amidst a backdrop of political uncertainty and turmoil. Whether South Korea can weather the storm and emerge stronger from this crisis remains to be seen, but the resilience of its democratic institutions and the dedication of its military to upholding the rule of law will be critical in shaping the country's future.Los Angeles Chargers rookie wide receiver Ladd McConkey, listed as questionable due to a shoulder issue, is expected to play Monday night against the visiting Baltimore Ravens, NFL Network reported.
