During the pregame coverage of the Minnesota Vikings matchup against the Green Bay Packers, Brady struggled to recall the teams that Green Bay lost to this season , causing an awkward moment on live TV and another roasting session online. Brady' s mistake occurred while standing alongside his broadcasting partner Kevin Burkhardt, as they broke down the stakes of the NFC North game at U.S. Bank Stadium. Brady began by confidently summarizing the Packers season, noting their four losses and the importance of the game ahead. "It's [the NFC North matchup] a big road challenge. They've got four losses, Green Bay does. Two of them to the Lions . They're a good team. The Eagles , they lost to them, they're a good team," Brady said. The trouble started when Brady attempted to identify the Packers' fourth loss. Tom Brady has made Shedeur Sanders feelings loud and clear as FOX job causes complication Tom Brady shows off NFL sixth sense before Pat Freiermuth touchdown for Steelers "And they lost to the, uh, what’d they lose to the other one? Anyway, they've got a big opportunity today to go on the road and really a litmus test for what they’re going to face in two weeks. Can't wait to watch," he finished. But the unease in his voice was all of the ammo that the internet needed to critique Fox's lead NFL analyst, who signed a 10-year, $375 million deal to land the job. Green Bay's other loss came against the Vikings in Week 4, which was a glaring omission for someone tasked with previewing the matchup. Social media wasted no time calling out Brady's mistake, and the criticisms ranged from hilarious to brutal. One fan simply wrote, "Please make Greg Olsen the #1 guy again ." Others laughed at Brady finally appearing human after such a successful NFL career. "As a Dolphins fan and someone who grew up with him owning my existence in the NFL, it gives me just a bit of solace to know he is not perfect or good at everything," a user on X wrote. "Tom Brady was a legendary football player. Certainly the best of his generation. Niceties out of the way, he is a truly AWFUL announcer, and he should quit before he completely destroys his legacy," another fan said. Even Burkhardt didn't escape the crossfire with another adding, "This is honestly as much on Kevin Burkhardt as it is on Tom Brady. Burkhardt should have instantly remembered that too." Brady's transition to broadcasting has been scrutinized several times this season , but he's also had several moments that have wowed fans with his knowledge of the game. He was complimented for his IQ during a spot-on touchdown call during the Steelers-Eagles game in Week 15 and praised during his in-studio appearance with his Fox colleagues.

Deacon Tony and Rosie Paulino were inseparable until his passing last year. CONTRIBUTED SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. – Next April will mark the second death anniversary of Antonio Paulino, known as “Deacon Tony” in the Archdiocese of San Francisco where he ministered for nearly 40 years. Congregants of St. Andrew Catholic Church in Daly City and earlier of Good Shepherd in Pacifica – the most recent parishes where the former administrative officer of the Philippine Consulate General in San Francisco had served – remember Deacon Tony for his inspiring homilies and unquestionable devotion to his faith. When he lost his fight to complications from diabetes in the spring of 2023, he left behind a family for whom he was spiritual, moral and social guide and protector. Subscribe to our daily newsletter By providing an email address. I agree to the Terms of Use and acknowledge that I have read the Privacy Policy . “I think of him every waking moment,” his widow Rosie Robles Paulino told Inquirer.net USA . “But I know he is one with the Lord , where there is no more pain or suffering.” The holiday season brings cheer to many but also tends to sadden people coping with the loss of a loved one, like Rosie, her widower son Ronald, Ronald’s children Valerie and Arron and Arron’s wife Kim. Their South San Francisco home can be a bit too quiet without the patriarch‘s solemn grace before every meal, they say, after he has prepared sushi or adobo sa gata , his specialties. Labor of Love For those in the Paulinos’ shoes, community-based organizations are collaborating with public entities to brighten the coming days for individuals and families with ache in their hearts. Here in South San Francisco, for one, a group called “Friends of Old Town,” has been distributing turkey and Thanksgiving meal boxes to the tight-knit neighborhood for the past six years. Last week they gave away 190 turkeys, said Hermes Monzon, coordinator of the Saturday event that drew lines of folks of every generation and background. The Turkey drive is a Friends of Old Town joint gift to the community with Sociedad Mutualista Mexicana de Morelo, Painters and Drywall Finishers Local 913, Carpet, Linoleum and Soft Tile Workers Local 12 and South San Francisco Scavenger that brought back memories to David Canepa, vice president of the San Mateo County Board of Supervisors. Though the area is a few blocks out of his jurisdiction, Canepa partnered on the endeavor for a deeply personal reason. “This event means so much to me because Old Town South San Francisco holds a special place in my heart,” he warmed up the crowd. “It’s where my grandmother, Liliana Torres, grew up. This community is rich in history, full of warmth and embodies the true spirit of generosity.” Soon as 209 Miller Street between Linden and Cypress opened its doors at 10 a,m. on Nov. 22, smiling faces streamed with recipients, benefactors and supporters greeting each other. “Come, let’s have a picture together. I want to show this to my mother who’s from Pulilan (Bulacan, Philippines),” Athena Castro Marchisheck approached a Filipino American attendee. As did Yasmil Rodriguez, another community advocate reaching out to a potential ally. Canepa brought along his constant escort, his 7-year-old son Piero, to walk in his shoes growing up with parents in public service. “Old Town is one of South San Francisco’s oldest and most vibrant neighborhoods and the people who live here are some of the most welcoming and gracious,” Canepa said, pointing to a significant impact of the effort. “But many in this working-class community are older adults, some isolated and lonely, and others who are food insecure. This longstanding free turkey giveaway is an expression of gratitude and a way to help people connect at a time when some people might be feeling depressed and have the holiday blues.” He commended the tireless Monzon, Ana Zaragoza, Brittany Burgo and Dana Abarca of Friends of Old Town, Anthony Nuanes of Local 12, Joe Sanders of Local 913, Max Snelling of Local 718, Desiree Green of San Mateo Labor Council, Carlos Martinez of IUPAT and Oscar Gamez and Jesus Galvan of Morelos for hosting what is the unofficial opening of the holidays in the “Industrial City,” the nickname South San Francisco earned for its strong support for labor. And more. “The turkey drive isn’t just about food; it’s about connection,” said the District 5 supervisor representing Daly City, Colma, Brisbane, parts of San Bruno and South San Francisco, municipalities with high concentrations of Filipinos, Asians and Latinos. “It’s a way to bring hope to those feeling isolated, lift up neighbors facing food insecurity and spread joy during the holiday season.” Connecting communities Some of the event participants were able to pick up their turkey as members of Got Wheels! , the affordable transportation program run by Peninsula Family Service funded by San Mateo County and championed by Canepa through his Loneliness to Light initiative. SSF resident and new Got Wheels! member Wing Wong was excited to inaugurate his program membership card by arriving at the Los Morelos distribution site in a Serra Yellow Cab, the transportation program partner provider.

Rosie Paulino, on the other hand, was glad the turkey giveaway took place on the weekend when son Ronald was free to drive her around. Otherwise she would have no second thoughts about using her discounted taxi rides, she said. “I never learned to drive because my husband and I carpooled when we were both working,” said the former See’s Candy employee who has been volunteering as lector and Eucharistic minister and pianist before and now in retirement. As a widow in her 80s, Paulino counts on the kindness of family and friends in the absence of her husband of 60 years. “There isn’t a time when I don’t miss him, but knowing there are many who care to ease my loneliness – people close to me and perfect strangers alike – help me make it through each day. I’m beyond grateful to them,” she expressed a sentiment shared by about 15 percent of the county population known as Baby Boomers, people born between 1946 and 1964. In the beginning of the 21st Century, the US Census found that every day from 2011 to 2029, 10,000 individuals in this country would be turning 65 years old. The results prompted public and private service organizations to build strategies and capacity to respond appropriately and effectively. Lack of transportation and nutrition affects physical health, discouraging older adults from making their doctor’s appointments or picking up medications. Lack of access to resources can lead to poor mental health, as absence of socialization and social connections often results in depression and isolation, aging and adult service agencies concur. Access to such resources can be life-saving to a multitude, hence the collaboration of labor leaders and residents of South San Francisco to work toward ensuring no one is left in want, particularly during the season of comfort and joy.

GREENFIELD — Members of the Zoning Board of Appeals and the public have expressed an interest in hearing a presentation by an expert from New Hampshire before taking any further action on the 170-foot monopole cell tower being proposed for Newton Street. Dr. Kent Chamberlain is regarded as a leading authority on electromagnetics and served on New Hampshire’s Commission to Study the Environmental and Health Effects of Evolving 5G Technology, which was established in 2019 to study impacts of cell towers and wireless radiation. He recently delivered a presentation in Heath and is scheduled for another one in January. The telecommunications company Viridi Wireless wants to construct the cell tower but some residents and ZBA members are hesitant, citing concerns over health, safety and property values. ZBA Chair David Singer is anxious to learn the specifics of the construction of the proposed tower’s base. These calculations incorporate the soil on which the tower would be built, but the company cannot go onto a property to analyze it until a building permit is issued. Under the current proposal, Singer said, the tower would snap in half as a safety precaution under stress conditions. “The ground would have to be holding that pretty firm for the thing to snap,” he said at Thursday’s public hearing at the John Zon Community Center. “So if the pressure is low at that area then the tower could actually fall down. So for me, that’s a threshold question, the safety piece.” Michael Cronin, an attorney representing Viridi Wireless, attended the hearing remotely but did not answer questions regarding the tower’s specifications, stressing that he is not an engineer. ZBA Clerk Peter Wozniak said Building Inspector Mark Snow is “a one-person office” who has requested professional support for a peer review of the base’s construction. Resident Andrew Vernon, who said he lives on Sunset Square and works at Greenfield Community College, expressed his support for this project and the planned peer review. Article continues after... Cross|Word Flipart Typeshift SpellTower Really Bad Chess “The absence or diminished [cell] service provided to Greenfield Community College ... in general is a concern today, and based on at least the Viridi diagram of [radio frequency], it also should be a continued concern for ZBA,” he said. Elana Kirshenbaum , of South Shelburne Road, said several like-minded residents could not attend Thursday’s public hearing due to illness, work, child care issues and holiday travel. She acknowledged that the community wants and needs good cell service — in a safe way. “For this reason, it is imperative that the ZBA, along with members of our community, become truly informed on the diverse, significant impacts of placing a 170-foot cell tower so close to residential homes and a school,” she read from a prepared statement. She said there are many unanswered questions and she proposed inviting Chamberlain for a presentation. Singer noted Viridi Wireless is expected to deliver its own presentation at the ZBA’s meeting slated for Thursday, Jan. 9. Reach Domenic Poli at: dpoli@recorder.com or 413-930-4120.

Historically, the industry has struggled with recurring issues, but we are confident that this approach will help change that narrative,” Cardoso stated. The Broader Implications of Compliance The governor of the CBN emphasized the wider effects of compliance on the financial system, pointing out that organizations that place a high priority on following regulations support stability and national progress. “A bank that prioritises compliance does more than protect itself -it strengthens the entire financial ecosystem. It directs financial resources toward growth, innovation, and prosperity rather than crime and corruption. Together, we must exceed standards, demonstrating to the public and the world that we are stewards of integrity and trust,” he added. Cardoso added that non-compliance has repercussions that go beyond fines imposed by the government. He asserts that problems like fraud, corruption, and money laundering threaten the core of the financial system.

A Vision for a Culture of Compliance The governor outlined a goal for Nigeria's banking sector to have a strong compliance culture. He emphasized that financial institutions need to be proactive in identifying and reducing risks in addition to adhering to legal requirements. According to Cardoso, boards and CEOs need to set an example by prioritizing compliance strategically and advocating for zero tolerance for violations, both in terms of policy and in actuality. He advised financial institutions to aggressively handle risks in high-risk locations and foresee vulnerabilities.

Fill in a short questionnaire Source: Legit.ngOn Friday, Stafford co-op football coach Brian Mazzone told his team that he wouldn’t be coming back next year. Mazzone, who has a 60-35 record and is Stafford’s winningest football coach, decided to step down after 10 years to spend more time with his family. Mazzone will coach Stafford (4-5) in one last game Wednesday on the road against the Windsor Locks co-op team at 6 p.m. at Windsor Locks. “I know the time was now,” Mazzone said. “I wanted to coach for 10 years. It was just a number I had in my head, I don’t know why. It happened to coincide with my son starting high school next year. “I know there’s going to be things I want to be at. He says he’s going to play football. He’d play freshman football on Thursday at 3:45. There’s no way I’m running a practice at Stafford at 3:30 and in my head, worrying what’s going on at Platt or Bristol Central or wherever he is that day. I gotta be there for it.” Mazzone still plans to be an assistant baseball coach at Enfield, where his son will play football and baseball, and he will be coaching his kids in CYO basketball as well. “I had a conversation with (Stafford athletic director) Damian (Frassinelli) a few years ago and he said we’ll work it out. But I just felt like it wasn’t sensible,” Mazzone said. “I told the kids the other night, ‘I’m 100 percent in all the time, I’m all in in what I do.’ If I can’t do that, I don’t want to do it. “Hopefully, we go out with a win.” East Hartford’s big win East Hartford stunned Manchester Friday, 46-0, in a CCC Tier 1 game Friday night. The Hornets lost six of their first seven games but bounced back to win their last three. In his last game, senior quarterback Dravyn Roberts, who is also a top wrestler for the Hornets, scored seven touchdowns, four rushing and three passing. He also helped stop Manchester’s offensive attack. “It was sad, but we had a good game,” East Hartford coach Bennie Fulse III said. “It build some confidence, built some character; it let the guys know we had a chance, we just didn’t stay focused all year. It’s a good win. It’s a rivalry. “What we did all week was we made sure we stayed with basic football, stayed with the game plan.” East Hartford will not make the playoffs; Manchester (6-4) is currently ranked seventh in Class LL and eight teams will advance to the playoffs. The CIAC tournament pairings will be announced Friday. Here are some top performances from last week: Nate Blumes, Conard: Blumes had 19 carries for 76 yards and had a field goal and caught a touchdown pass in the fourth quarter in a 16-10 loss to Hall Saturday. Blumes needed 43 yards to become the 16th running back in school history to rush for over 1,000 yards and he was the first to do since his brother Arsen Shtefan on the same date in 2019. Carter Chambers, Granby/Canton: Chambers had 11 carries for 103 yards and two rushing touchdowns, and caught a 4-yard touchdown pass in the second quarter from Vince Forte en route to a 42-7 win over North Branford Friday. Will Davis, Rockville: Davis had 11 carries for 97 yards and two touchdowns, including a 53-yarder, in Rockville’s 44-7 win over Coginchaug Friday. Tyler Redden, Hall: Redden had 22 carries for 83 yards in Hall’s 16-10 victory over crosstown rival Conard Saturday.
Week 11 High School Football: Brian Mazzone’s last game at Stafford, East Hartford upsets Manchester
Germany is to vote in an early election on February 23 after Chancellor Olaf Scholz’s three-party governing coalition collapsed last month in a dispute over how to revitalise the country’s stagnant economy. Mr Musk’s guest opinion piece for Welt am Sonntag – a sister publication of Politico owned by the Axel Springer Group – published in German over the weekend, was the second time this month that he has supported the Alternative for Germany, or AfD. “The Alternative for Germany (AfD) is the last spark of hope for this country,” he wrote in his translated commentary. He went on to say that the far-right party “can lead the country into a future where economic prosperity, cultural integrity and technological innovation are not just wishes, but reality”. The Tesla Motors chief executive also wrote that his investment in Germany gives him the right to comment on the country’s condition. The AfD is polling strongly, but its candidate for the top job, Alice Weidel, has no realistic chance of becoming chancellor because other parties refuse to work with the far-right party. Billionaire Mr Musk, an ally of US President-elect Donald Trump, challenged in his opinion piece the party’s public image. “The portrayal of the AfD as right-wing extremist is clearly false, considering that Alice Weidel, the party’s leader, has a same-sex partner from Sri Lanka! Does that sound like Hitler to you? Please!” Mr Musk’s commentary has led to a debate in German media over the boundaries of free speech, with the paper’s own opinion editor announcing her resignation, pointedly on Mr Musk’s social media platform, X. Eva Marie Kogel wrote: “I always enjoyed leading the opinion section of WELT and WAMS. Today an article by Elon Musk appeared in Welt am Sonntag. I handed in my resignation yesterday after it went to print.” A critical article by the future editor-in-chief of the Welt group, Jan Philipp Burgard, accompanied Mr Musk’s opinion piece. “Musk’s diagnosis is correct, but his therapeutic approach, that only the AfD can save Germany, is fatally wrong,” he wrote. Responding to a request for comment from the German Press Agency, dpa, the current editor-in-chief of the Welt group, Ulf Poschardt, and Mr Burgard – who is due to take over on January 1 – said in a joint statement that the discussion over Mr Musk’s piece was “very insightful. Democracy and journalism thrive on freedom of expression.” “This will continue to determine the compass of the ‘world’ in the future. We will develop ‘Die Welt’ even more decisively as a forum for such debates,” they wrote to dpa.
