TUCSON, Ariz. — As first light broke on the day before Thanksgiving, the aroma of fresh-baked bread wafted through Tucson’s Broadmoor-Broadway neighborhood. Outside of Barrio Bread , a line stretched down the block as locals and tourists alike waited patiently, eager to take home a piece of the city’s celebrated bakery for their holiday tables. For owner Don Guerra, the sight of the crowd represented more than just the success of his business. Barrio Bread (@ barriobread ) • Instagram photos and videos “Everyone’s trying to get their loaves of bread to put on their tables,” Guerra said. “It’s a proud moment for Barrio Bread, a community-supported bakery that’s all about local grains, agriculture, and gastronomy.” Guerra’s passion for community is palpable. He started Barrio Bread in his garage in 2011, coining the term “Community Supported Baker” (CSB) to describe the bakery’s mission. “This is about a community investment project,” he explained. “It’s a circular economy model where everyone participates to keep the bakery running and flourishing.” For loyal customer Joy Vargo, Barrio Bread is a Thanksgiving essential. Barrio Bread (@ barriobread ) • Instagram photos and videos “I’ve been coming here since Don was baking out of his garage,” Vargo said. “It’s amazing to watch someone so passionate bring an entire city together.” She planned to bring one of Guerra’s signature loaves to a Friendsgiving celebration for 15 she's hosting. “It’s a wonderful way to share bread with everybody,” she said. Robert Knodle, another customer, emphasized the bakery’s welcoming atmosphere. “Maybe the nicest owner I’ve ever met and the best bread I’ve ever eaten,” Knodle said. “We always buy the apricot bread — it’s perfect for Thanksgiving.” The bakery’s popularity stems not only from its quality but from Guerra’s dedication to using local ingredients. “I contract directly with farmers,” Guerra said. “We use local grains, heritage varieties, and long fermentation to create low-glycemic, low-gluten bread.” His signature Heritage loaf, featuring a saguaro cactus design, symbolizes the bakery’s roots. “I wanted the bread to speak for itself,” Guerra said. “This is who we are as Tucsonans.” Barrio Bread also gives back to the community, partnering with local organizations like the University of Arizona’s Garden Kitchen to provide bread through SNAP benefits. “Giving back is foundational,” Guerra said. “You have to give with open hands because if you don’t, you can’t receive.” Despite the long holiday lines, Guerra’s bread is accessible year-round, with options at the Food Conspiracy Co-op and other locations. “If the line is intimidating, you can always come another day — it’s worth it,” Vargo said. As Thanksgiving approaches, Guerra remains grateful. “Seeing those smiling faces, knowing they’ll share this bread with their families, it’s a reminder of what Thanksgiving is really about.”Duke's Cooper Flagg thrives in first true road environment, quieting Arizona crowd with 24 points TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) — Duke freshman phenom Cooper Flagg got his first taste of a true college road atmosphere on Friday night, playing in front of a raucous announced crowd of 14,634 at Arizona’s McKale Center. For a few early moments, he looked a little nervous. It was fleeting. Flagg scored 16 points in the second half, finishing with a game-high 24 as No. 12 Duke pulled away for a 69-55 win over No. 17 Arizona. The preseason All-American shot 10 of 22 from the field, grabbed six rebounds and had three assists, two blocks and a steal. 76ers center Joel Embiid sidelined due to swelling in his left knee and will miss two games PHILADELPHIA (AP) — The Philadelphia 76ers say center Joel Embiid is managing swelling in his left knee and will miss a second consecutive game Sunday. The Sixers issued a statement on the condition of the 2023 NBA MVP at halftime of Friday’s NBA Cup game against the Brooklyn Nets, saying the decision to sideline Embiid was made along with the team’s medical staff.

Giants release quarterback Daniel Jones just days after benching him EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) — The Daniel Jones era in New York is over. The Giants quarterback was granted his release by the team just days after the franchise said it was benching him in favor of third-stringer Tommy DeVito. New York president John Mara said Jones approached the team about releasing him and the club obliged. Mara added he was “disappointed” at the quick dissolution of a once-promising relationship between Jones and the team. Giants coach Brian Daboll benched Jones in favor of DeVito following a loss to the Panthers in Germany that dropped New York's record to 2-8. Austin Hays, Kyle Finnegan, Brendan Rodgers and Jordan Romano among 62 new free agents NEW YORK (AP) — Outfielder Austin Hays, right-hander Kyle Finnegan and second baseman Brendan Rodgers were among 62 players who became free agents when their teams failed to offer 2025 contracts.

US ski star Shiffrin leads World Cup slalom after 1st run and closes in on career win No. 99 GURGL, Austria (AP) — Mikaela Shiffrin closed in on what would be the American ski star’s career win No. 99 by setting the pace in the opening run of a women’s World Cup slalom. Shiffrin wasn’t clean going into the steep of the Kirchenkar course but gained time on all competitors with a near-flawless finish section. Wendy Holdener was fastest at the first two splits and the Swiss racer trailed Shiffrin by 0.13 seconds at the finish. Shiffrin says she was feeling "a little bit funky on some spots.” A victory would give Shiffrin five chances to compete for win No. 100 during a North American sweep of the World Cup starting next week.

A new Richmond-focused musical dramedy, set in the worlds of entertainment and pageantry, is debuting as a digital short series next week. Rags 2 Richmond is the latest addition to the vertical film industry featuring 30 digital short episodes that are about two minutes each, The series will be released in three sets of 10 episodes on Dec. 5, 12 and 19 on Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, YouTube and Little Red Book. The story follows Nathan Song, a struggling R&B singer-songwriter, and his best friend Lando Wu, both sharing a dream of revolutionizing the music scene with their unique style, ChiDM (China Dope Music). As they prepare to release their radio single “Low Key” — which will also launch in real life alongside the series — Lando receives a mysterious offer that tests their friendship. Meanwhile, disgraced media mogul Raymond Ha launches a co-ed beauty pageant — a first of its kind — hoping to salvage his name and reputation. Instead, it uncovers hidden secrets within Richmond's entertainment world. Based on both fictional and real events, Rags 2 Richmond follows the journey of aspiring artists and the behind-the-scenes drama at a fictional TV station in Richmond, set in 2005, explained Jonathan Wong, Hong Kong singer-songwriter, actor and co-producer of the series. The digital series is a nod to early 2000s hip-hop, R&B and Asian pop culture and is loosely based on pageants from Richmond that became a "launching pad" for winners such as Maggie Cheung, Fala Chen and Michelle Reis into Hong Kong's entertainment industry. Wong told the Richmond New s the entire series is more than just about finding "your sound," rather it is about finding yourself. "In 2005, it was the peak year of the male pageantry here as well as the peak of Vancouver sending people to become worldwide sensations in Hong Kong," said Wong. "We decided to base our series in Richmond, B.C., Canada, as it was and still is a hub for ambitious individuals who want to make it big in the Hong Kong entertainment world." He noted it was also around the same time when Asians felt "they had a chance," inspired by films such as Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon and rising stars such as Stephen Chow and Michelle Yeoh. "If you're Asian, you were like, 'Okay, it's possible.'" The concept of the series was developed by a team of industry veterans including Wong, Justina Shih and director Simon Yin. “ Rags 2 Richmond isn’t just about music and fame; it’s about identity, representation, and the resilience of chasing dreams,” said Shih, an accomplished producer and also the daughter of renowned Hong Kong-based actress Nancy Sit. “We’ve created a story that captures the essence of an era while highlighting the challenges and triumphs of young talent in the Asian diaspora.” Although the idea for the series began in Hong Kong and Los Angeles, production is entirely Canadian with 90 per cent of the cast and crew from Metro Vancouver. Many cast members are local talents, including current and former contestants of the Miss Chinese International Pageant, an annual event by Fairchild Television. Filming took place in several Richmond locations including Aberdeen Centre, Parker Place Mall and along River Road. The cast includes Wong playing Nathan Song, Peter Sudarso as Lando Wu, Hong Kong star Nancy Sit as Nancy Shaw, Davin Tong as Janness, Yasmine Ross as Jennifer Lum, Leslie Kwan as Paulie Dong, and Darren E. Scott as Peter Dong. Short digital films have grown in popularity for mobile viewers on the go. Wong noted the popularity of vertical shorts in Southeast Asia and the U.S.'s digital market has grown over the past few years, particularly on platforms such as ReelShort, which has generated $41 million USD in revenue and more than 11 million downloads recently. “It’s clear that short-form storytelling resonates with audiences – it’s the new wave of how people are consuming media on social media," said Wong. "Rags 2 Richmond hopes to leverage this momentum, using this format as a proof of concept to connect with viewers globally while laying the foundation for a future feature film." Wong told the News the team planned for a full TV series before pivoting to a movie format a few years ago. However, with the increasingly weak film and TV market and the rise of vertical short films, Wong, Shih and Yin decided to change their format once more to short-form film. "We thought why don't we try and prove this (series) concept another way, a less expensive way, but go straight to viewers instead of creating a thing that could possibly never have been seen," said Wong. TV pilot series and shows are costly to produce and often never get shown, he explained. "That's why we decided to do short form because you can shoot it just like you would a TV series, chop it up, and then you can create it for mobile users." While most paid vertical films run on a "freemium" model — where a limited number of episodes are free and viewers have to pay to watch the rest — Wong said Rags 2 Richmond will be a completely free digital series. He emphasized each episode stands alone while contributing to the full story to keep viewers hooked. "There are no filler episodes, and each short has its own compelling story." Episode drops will be announced on @rags2richmond's Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Facebook and Little Red Book pages. Got an opinion on this story or any others in Richmond?

However, Sanders likely picked up quite a few fans on Saturday afternoon during the first half of the game between the Buffaloes and the Kansas Jayhawks after taking a brutal dirty hit to his knees on a scramble, and popping right back up after all was said and done. The play came in the second quarter, with Sanders rolling out to his left and firing downfield to an open receiver. After the ball was gone, a Kansas defender dove right at the knees of the quarterback, flipping him upside down in what looked like a painful collision. No flag was called after the play, much to the dismay of nearly every objective fan on social media. Stephen Garcia/Avalanche-Journal / USA TODAY NETWORK via Imagn Images One notable NFL Draft analyst, Todd McShay, also asked a question that it feels like everyone was thinking after the play. "How freakin’ tough is Shedeur Sanders?!" how is this not roughing the passer??? dirty play to take out Shedeur Sanders knees pic.twitter.com/B59UQrFzmO The answer is clearly "pretty tough" considering that the Buffs' QB was able to get right up after being flipped upside down and landing on his head/neck area. It's fortunate, too, because this looked like it could have been a massive injury that caused serious damage to Sanders' knees. With the Colorado passer standing as one of the most likely top picks in the 2025 NFL Draft, that would be a devastating outcome this late in the season. Fortunately for the Buffs, their QB seems to be okay. They will need him, too, as they trail Kansas 23-14 late at halftime of the must-win game.
