'Eight billion bucks or bust': From pirates to 'stupid mistakes' — the wild story of how James Webb Space Telescope almost failed to launchIdaho teen is arrested in connection with a dead infant found in a baby box at a hospitalThe Pentagon has been forced to deny that Iran is commanding a mothership flying drones over the east coast of the US after a member of Congress said he had intelligence that Tehran was behind unexplained sightings in recent days. Federal agencies have been investigating dozens of reports of mysterious “SUV-sized” flying objects hovering over neighbourhoods in New Jersey and New York, leaving residents confused and concerned. Jeff Van Drew, a Republican representative for New Jersey, claimed on Wednesday that the Islamic Republic stationed a “mothership” on the eastern coast a month ago, using it as a base from which to launch drones. “This is from high, very qualified sources,” said Van Drew, who sits on the House transportation and infrastructure committee and on the aviation subcommittee. “I don’t say this lightly. Hobbyists don’t have the capability. Iran made a deal with China to purchase this technology. These drones should be shot down. This is a clear and present danger to the United States and our president-elect. It’s serious business.”

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.

He was born April 16, 1942 in Hamilton, Kan., to John Peter Burris and Hazel Charlotte Uhl (Burris). Ronald completed the 8 grade and then went on to earn a GED for his school-aged years. Ronald graduated from Allen County Community College and majored in political science. He also earned a bachelor of science degree in Administration of Justice with a minor in pre-law from Wichita State University. As a young adult, Ronald proudly enlisted in the U.S. Army on May 28,1962 to go fight for our freedom in the Vietnam War.

Ronald served four years in the Army. He then reenlisted in the U.S. Navy where he proudly served in the Navy Seabees for 20 months. Ronald was a proud veteran and held it very near and dear to his heart. Ronald always took every opportunity he had to thank a service member or veteran for their service. Ronald was self-employed most of his life. Like his father, Ronald worked in the oil fields for over 40 years and became quite successful. It was his true passion, and he thoroughly enjoyed it. Ronald had a very full and adventurous life. He was an avid coin collector. He loved to buy and hunt for coins. He never spent any change in his pocket so he could look for unique and valuable coins.

He also enjoyed traveling, taking many frequent vacations alone and with his daughters. Ronald also had a love for Raiders football and rooted for a win every game. Ronald’s children and grandchildren were the light of his life. He thoroughly enjoyed every minute he had with them and treasured their close bond. He had four children and seven grandchildren who will love and miss him forever. Ronald is survived by his children, Kelsey Lampe (Levi), LaHarpe, Sara Burris (Charles Hon), Iola, and Kaci Peres (Zachery), Overland Park; two sisters, Melba Shields and Patricia Burris of Parsons; grandchildren, Cadin Peres, Maddilyn Peres, Isabella Peres, Asher Peres, Ellie Lampe, Emersyn Lampe, and Willow Peres; his dog, Odie, and many nieces, nephews, cousins and friends.

It's rivalry week in college football — and there are plenty of playoff implications on the line. There remain only a handful of games for each program, and the race for the College Football Playoff is on. Teams have just a couple of chances left to boost their resume and prove they belong in the field with a chance at a national championship. With the expansion from the four-team format to 12 starting in 2024, the end of the season is all the more exciting. Teams that may have found themselves well outside the hunt for a national championship in years prior find themselves in the thick of a close competition to grab one of the 12 spots in the playoff. The four-team system had been in place since 2012, replacing the outdated BCS format. It expanded the championship series from two teams to four teams, and fans began questioning when it would expand again. The answer ended up being 2024. The first College Football Playoff rankings release began in early November. In total, there will be six reveals before the final 12-team playoff is selected in January. Tuesday, Nov. 26 marks the fourth release of those rankings. Follow below as The Sporting News is tracking the latest bracket reveal of the 12-team CFP era.

College Football Playoff bracket 2024 This section will be updated once the new bracket is revealed How new College Football Playoff format works in 2024 The new CFP format consists of 12 teams. Automatic bids are given to the top four conference champions, which are automatically seeded 1-4 regardless of Playoff ranking. The remaining eight spots will comprise at least six at-large bids and then the two highest-ranked remaining conference champs. So, it could be seven at-large bids and then one more conference champion, or simply eight at-large bids. The CFP committee will determine the exact breakdown of the field. At the very least, this new format guarantees that at least one Group of 5 team makes the field. Here's a look at how the College Football Playoff seeding will play out: First round No. 1 team (bye) No. 2 team (bye) No. 3 team (bye) No. 4 team (bye) No. 12 team at No. 5 team No. 11 team at No. 6 team No. 10 team at No. 7 team No. 9 team at No. 8 team Quarterfinals No. 1 team vs. No. 8/9 team No. 2 team vs. No. 7/10 team No. 3 team vs. No. 6/11 team No. 4 team vs. No. 5/12 team Game Date First round Dec. 20-21 Fiesta Bowl (Quarterfinals) Dec. 31 Sugar, Peach, Rose Bowls (Quarterfinals) Jan. 1 Orange Bowl (Semifinals) Jan. 9 Cotton Bowl (Semifinals) Jan. 10 National Championship Jan. 20 MORE: Updated NCAA Top 25 polls after Week 13 of college football season College Football Playoff predictions Here are The Sporting News' latest CFP bracket projections after Week 13, according to Bill Bender : Ranking Team Record 1.

Undercover FBI agents had no role in US Capitol attack: reportApple's latest iPhones get the gift of more AI as holiday shopping season heats up

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. (AP) — President-elect Donald Trump has invited Chinese President Xi Jinping and other world leaders to his inauguration next month — an unorthodox move that would fold U.S. allies and adversaries into a very American political tradition. Trump said Thursday during an appearance at the New York Stock Exchange , where he was ringing the opening bell to kick off trading for the day, that he’s been “thinking about inviting certain people to the inauguration” without referring to any specific individuals. “And some people said, ‘Wow, that’s a little risky, isn’t it?’” Trump said. “And I said, ‘Maybe it is. We’ll see. We’ll see what happens.’ But we like to take little chances.” His comments came soon after his incoming White House press secretary, Karoline Leavitt, confirmed during a Thursday morning appearance on “Fox & Friends” that Trump had invited Xi and other world leaders to attend his inauguration. No head of state has previously made an official visit to the U.S. for the inauguration, according to State Department historical records. The unprecedented invitations come at a moment when much of the world is bracing for what comes next when Trump and his “America First” worldview return to the White House. The president-elect has vowed to levy massive tariffs against the United States' chief economic competitor, China, as well as neighbors Canada and Mexico unless those countries do more to reduce illegal immigration and the flow of illegal drugs such as fentanyl into the United States. Trump's also pledged to move quickly to end Russia's nearly three-year war in Ukraine and press NATO allies who are spending less than 2% of their GDP on defense to step up or risk the United States not coming to their defense, as required by the transatlantic alliance's treaty, should they come under attack. “We’ve been talking and discussing with President Xi some things, and others, other world leaders, and I think we’re going to do very well all around,” Trump said. “We’ve been abused as a country. We’ve been badly abused from an economic standpoint, I think, and even militarily, you know, we put up all the money, they put up nothing, and then they abuse us on the economy. And we just can’t let that happen.” Xi is likely to see the invitation as too risky to accept, and the gesture from Trump may have little bearing on the increasingly competitive ties between the two nations as the White House changes hands, experts say. Danny Russel, vice president for international security and diplomacy at the Asia Society Policy Institute, said Xi would not allow himself to “be reduced to the status of a mere guest celebrating the triumph of a foreign leader — the U.S. president, no less.” Still, Leavitt saw it as a plus. “This is an example of President Trump creating an open dialogue with leaders of countries that are not just our allies, but our adversaries and our competitors, too,” she said on "Fox & Friends." “We saw this in his first term. He got a lot of criticism for it, but it led to peace around this world. He is willing to talk to anyone, and he will always put America’s interest first.” Asked at a Chinese Foreign Ministry briefing Thursday about Trump's invitation, spokesperson Mao Ning responded, “I have nothing to share at present.” Leavitt did not detail which leaders beyond Xi have been invited. But Trump's decision to invite Xi, in particular, squares with his belief that foreign policy — much like a business negotiation — should be carried out with carrots and sticks to get the United States' opponents to operate closer to his administration's preferred terms. Jim Bendat, a historian and author of “Democracy’s Big Day: The Inauguration of Our President,” said he was not aware of a previous U.S. inauguration attended by a foreign head of state. “It's not necessarily a bad thing to invite foreign leaders to attend,” Bendat said. “But it sure would make more sense to invite an ally before an adversary.” Edward Frantz, a presidential historian at the University of Indianapolis, said the invitation helps Trump burnish his “dealmaker and savvy businessman” brand. “I could see why he might like the optics," Frantz said. “But from the standpoint of American values, it seems shockingly cavalier." White House officials said it was up to Trump to decide whom he invites to the inauguration. “I would just say, without doubt, it's the single most consequential bilateral relationship that the United States has in the world,” White House national security spokesperson John Kirby said. “It is a relationship both fraught with peril and responsibility.” It's unclear which leaders, if any, might show. A top aide to Hungarian President Viktor Orban, one of Trump's most vocal supporters on the world stage, said Thursday that Orban isn't slated to attend the inauguration. “There is no such plan, at least for the time being," said Gergely Gulyás, Orban's chief of staff. The nationalist Hungarian leader is embraced by Trump but has faced isolation in Europe as he's sought to undermine the European Union's support for Ukraine, and routinely blocked, delayed or watered down the bloc’s efforts to provide weapons and funding and to sanction Moscow for its invasion. Orban recently met with Trump at Mar-a-Lago. Every country's chief of mission to the United States will also be invited, according to a Trump Inaugural Committee official who was not authorized to comment publicly and spoke on condition of anonymity. Such invitations to diplomats stationed in Washington has been customary during past inaugurations. Xi, during a meeting with President Joe Biden last month in Peru, urged the United States not to start a trade war. “Make the wise choice,” Xi cautioned. “Keep exploring the right way for two major countries to get along well with each other.” Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has also pushed back on Trump's threats, warning that such tariffs would be perilous for the U.S. economy as well. Trudeau earlier this week said Americans “are beginning to wake up to the real reality that tariffs on everything from Canada would make life a lot more expensive” and said he will retaliate if Trump goes ahead with them. Trump responded by calling Canada a state and Trudeau the governor. In addition to the tariff dispute, U.S.-China relations are strained over other issues, including what U.S. officials see as Beijing's indirect support of Russia's war on Ukraine. The Biden administration says China has supported Russia with a surge in sales of dual-use components that help keep its military industrial base afloat. U.S. officials also have expressed frustration with Beijing for not doing more to rein in North Korea's support for the Russian war. China accounts for the vast majority of North Korea’s trade. North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has dispatched thousands of troops to Russia to help repel Ukrainian forces from the Kursk border region. The North Koreans also have provided Russia with artillery and other munitions, according to U.S. and South Korean intelligence officials. Trump’s Jan. 20 inauguration is set to take place a day after the U.S. deadline for ByteDance, the Chinese parent company of social media giant TikTok, to sell the social media app or face a ban in the United States. Associated Press writers Didi Tang in Washington and Balint Domotor in Budapest, Hungary, contributed to this report.ORANGEBURG, S.C. -- We are live from South Carolina State University's Oliver C.
