West Virginia knocks off No. 3 Gonzaga in overtimeOscar Fairs from Benfleet, Essex, was diagnosed with a rare 7cm ependymoma brain tumour in August 2023 and underwent seven surgeries, one round of chemotherapy and one round of radiotherapy to be told palliative care was the only option. A GoFundMe page was set up to help the family raise £100,000 towards a treatment trial in France. West Ham footballers donated £27,000, chairman David Sullivan donated £10,000 and Arsenal footballer and former West Ham star Declan Rice gave £5,000, according to Ms Fairs. On Friday, West Ham announced that the 15-year-old had died. Sporting director Mark Noble said: “Oscar was adored by everyone at the Academy – not only was he a great goalkeeper, he was a true Hammer and a fantastic young person, who will be deeply missed by everyone who had the pleasure to know him. “I have wonderful memories of Oscar playing in my garden – (my son) Lenny and his teammates all loved him. “He was a friendly, happy, well-mannered and polite young man, who had such a bright future ahead of him, and it is just so unimaginably devastating that he has been taken from his family and friends at this age. “The thoughts and sincere condolences of everyone at the Club are with Oscar’s parents, Natalie and Russell, and his brother Harry, and we kindly ask that the family’s privacy is respected at this extremely difficult time.” All scheduled Academy fixtures over the weekend have been postponed as a mark of respect.

MEXICO CITY — A California couple with Mexican roots went south for the holidays to visit relatives, an annual tradition among many U.S. residents of Mexican ancestry. But tragedy struck: Both were shot dead in Mexico's violence-plagued Michoacán state, Mexican authorities said Friday. The couple fell victim to the violence that has been pummeling Mexico. Police were investigating but had no immediate word on a motive or possible suspects, said Magdalena Guzmán, a spokeswoman for the state prosecutor's office. The two were shot just before midnight Thursday while inside a pickup truck on a road in rural Angamacutiro, a municipality of about 15,000 in northern Michoacán. In the last few months, Angamacutiro has seen its chief of security murdered and an ex-mayor disappeared — crimes indicative of the violence that has convulsed the western state of Michoacán. The victims of Thursday's double homicide were identified as Rafael Cardona Aguilera, 53, and his wife, Gloria Ambriz de Cardona, 50, according to authorities and a mourning notice posted on social media. Cardona was the brother-in-law of the town mayor and the couple were staying at the mayor's residence, the prosecutor's spokeswoman said. Cardona was born in the United States and his wife was a naturalized U.S. citizen, Guzmán said. The couple resided in the Sacramento area and arrived in Mexico at the end of November to spend the holidays with relatives, Guzmán said. The wife died at the scene and her spouse succumbed shortly afterward at a hospital, the prosecutor's office said. For decades, Michoacán, a sprawling region to the west of Mexico City, has been a major source of immigrants settling in California and elsewhere in the United States. Many immigrants traditionally return for the end-of-year holidays to visit loved ones and hometowns throughout Mexico. In recent years, Michoacán has seen a wave of violence linked to gangs competing for various lucrative rackets, including drug-smuggling, extortion and illegal timber-harvesting. The state, authorities say, is also a key transit route for precursor chemicals used in the production of U.S.-bound fentanyl, the synthetic opioid, and shipped from China to the Pacific port of Lázaro Cárdenas, on the Michoacán coast. Angamacutiro has seen several recent high-profile crimes. In October, Lizbeth Estela Romero, the head of security in Angamacutiro, was shot dead outside her home. The town's ex-mayor, Maribel Juárez Blanquet, disappeared in August and was presumably kidnapped, authorities say. She remains missing. The ex-mayor's brother, Erik Juárez Blanquet, a state lawmaker and also a former mayor of Angamacutiro, was shot dead in 2020 when a pair of assassins on a motorcycle opened fire on his vehicle in the state capital of Morelia. In a statement, the U.S. Embassy in Mexico City said it was "aware" of the shooting of the U.S. couple and was "closely" tracking developments. "The safety of U.S. citizens abroad is our first priority and we stand ready to assist in any way possible," the embassy said, declining to provide further details.

Brown, who has consistently ripped Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris , teased the possible gig this week after CNN anchor Kaitlan Collins was announced as the network's new Chief White House Correspondent. On Wednesday, the ex-Steelers receiver responded an X post that shared the Collins news and wrote, 'See you at the White House' with an eyeball emoji. Brown's reply was then swiftly deleted. The White House has not announced anything regarding a potential employment of Brown. Former Steelers wide receiver Antonio Brown has been an outspoken supporter of Donald Trump He teased a possible White House role on X on Wednesday before quickly deleting his post It's also possible that Brown - who previously posted pictures of Tom Brady 's ex-wife Gisele Bundchen hugging him on social media - could simply be making a lewd comment on Collins' appearance. However, he previously told DailyMail.com that he was serious about taking a job in Trump's administration if he was offered one. Brown claimed he would do whatever was needed to help Trump a success, from a job in the White House to becoming an elected representative. 'I'd be the man in the office,' he said, when asked what sort of job he would like to do. 'The House of Representatives or something.' Brown attended a Trump rally and led a voter registration drive at a tailgate party - both in Pittsburgh - before the 78-year-old was ultimately elected as president for a second time. At one point during the rally, Brown and former Steelers teammate Le'Veon Bell both appeared onstage next to Trump. While the election took place more than three weeks ago, Brown has continued to take aim at Vice President Harris.

Trump urges judge to dismiss hush money case
AT&T to Release Fourth-Quarter 2024 Earnings on January 27ST. LOUIS — The debate over how the city should spend more than $250 million in settlement money from the NFL entered a new phase Friday, as a bill backed by two of the city’s top three officials was introduced at the Board of Aldermen. Alderwoman Alisha Sonnier, who is carrying the bill, said an initial hearing is set for Monday. The plan would put about $277 million into a series of endowment funds, each with a specific purpose. There would be one with $70 million dedicated to boosting affordable housing in the city, and one with $60 million for fixing streets and sidewalks. Another $40 million would go into a pot for the city’s water system, which is struggling with a maintenance backlog after going more than a decade without a rate increase. About $37 million would be made available to subsidize childcare for city residents, with first priority given to parents who are city workers. The last $70 million would be split between three other priorities: paying for city workers to go back to school or get additional training, helping city high school graduates pay for college or trade school, and building up struggling neighborhoods, perhaps with grants to businesses or neighborhood organizations. Sonnier, Aldermanic President Megan Green and Mayor Tishaura O. Jones said when they announced the plan Wednesday that it would transform the city by helping it attract and retain more residents, city workers and businesses. But there’s no guarantee it garners the eight votes needed to pass. A competing proposal from business leaders who pushed hard for more immediate spending focused more tightly on infrastructure and development, with $100 million earmarked for downtown and $130 million for struggling neighborhoods north and south. Four aldermen have publicly backed that plan: Pam Boyd, of Walnut Park, Tom Oldenburg, of St. Louis Hills, Cara Spencer, of Marine Villa, and Laura Keys, of the O’Fallon neighborhood. Other aldermen said they’re still making up their minds on how to vote. “I wish I could vote for both,” said Alderwoman Anne Schweitzer, of Boulevard Heights. Alderman Bret Narayan, of Dogtown, said he wanted to see more done for city workers. Serious staffing shortages have hobbled functions like trash pickup in recent years. That has to be the focus, he said. “My community wants improvements in city services, not pet programs,” he said.
