MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. (AP) — Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel said he was caught off guard by reports early Tuesday that linebacker Shaq Barrett wants to unretire. The two-time Super Bowl winner signed a one-year deal with the Dolphins in March, then abruptly announced his retirement on social media in July, just days before the start of Miami's training camp. “Just to be candid, obviously there's a reason why you target and sign somebody," McDaniel said Tuesday afternoon. “I was fully caught off guard, or caught by surprise this morning as I found out.” McDaniel indicated the Dolphins have not had any conversations with Barrett recently. Miami holds the 32-year-old’s contractual rights. ESPN first reported the news. “It was kind of news as you guys got it,” McDaniel said. He also said he hasn't had a chance to think about Barrett potentially rejoining the team, and that his immediate focus is on Miami's Thursday night game at Green Bay. “The team is counting on me to think about the Packers,” he said. "I'll get with (GM) Chris (Grier), and we'll work through that. There's a ton of implications that go along with it in terms of team and roster stuff, so we'll work through that as we just got the news today.” Barrett has 400 tackles, 59 sacks, 22 forced fumbles and three interceptions in nine seasons — four with Denver and five with Tampa Bay. He was a second-team All-Pro with the Buccaneers in 2019, with a league-high 19 1/2 sacks. Dolphins waive veteran safety The Dolphins waived veteran safety Marcus Maye on Tuesday and activated rookie safety Patrick McMorris from injured reserve. Maye, who signed with the Dolphins in June, played in 11 games with three starts for Miami this season. He had 30 tackles and a tackle for loss. He could re-sign to the team's practice squad if he clears waivers. Maye previously played for New Orleans, but was cut in a money-saving move in March after two seasons with the Saints. Maye's release made room on the roster for McMorris, who was drafted in the sixth round by Miami in April. He began the season on injured reserve because of a calf injury.

The Transportation Security Administration has some reminders for those heading to airports during the holidays. “People seem to forget some of the more common and routine steps that they need to take when packing for a flight or when they are going through a checkpoint, perhaps because they’re focused on being at their destination and not focusing on what needs to happen before getting there,” said TSA officer Christopher Kirchein of John F. Kennedy International Airport. “Travelers sometimes ignore the advice that we give them,” said TeaNeisha Barker, a TSA uniformed adviser. “We are providing guidance so that they get through the checkpoint as simply and conveniently as possible. Not every airport has the same technology, so listen to the guidance we are offering.” “Passengers forget that knives and other weapons are not allowed through our checkpoints. It’s shocking to see so many people with knives,” said TSA officer Aisha Hicks of Philadelphia International Airport. “Weapons of any kind are prohibited through a TSA checkpoint.” TSA officers shared this list of the common things that travelers forget and should remember when coming to a security checkpoint. Ten things that travelers need to remember when preparing to go through the security screening process: • Remember that you cannot bring bottles of water, energy drinks, juice, coffee, soda or any filled insulated reusable container through a security checkpoint. However, they can finish their beverage and bring the empty bottle or container with them. • Remember to bring your ID to the checkpoint. • Remember when TSA officers remind you to remove everything from your pockets that it does not only mean metallic items such as keys and mobile phones, but it means everything, including non-metallic items such as tissues, lip balm, breath mints, etc. • Remember that you cannot bring a firearm through a checkpoint. Instead, pack your unloaded firearm in a locked hard-sided case and declare it at your airline check-in counter and the airline will ensure it is transported in the belly of the plane where nobody has access to it. • Remember that you need to remove your shoes when getting screened and then end up barefoot on the floor. It’s probably a good idea to wear socks. • Remember that children 12 and under are allowed to travel through a TSA PreCheck screening lane with a parent who has TSA PreCheck on their boarding pass. In addition, don’t forget that children up to the age of 18 can also come into the TSA PreCheck lane with their parent if they are on the same airline reservation as their parent. • Remember that passengers that appear 12 and under or 75 and older do not need to remove their shoes and light jacket. • Remember, if you are putting a lock on your luggage, make sure it is a TSA compatible lock so that if TSA officers need to open your luggage, they can unlock it and relock it. If the lock is not TSA compliant, TSA officers who need to open your luggage will cut off the lock, rendering it useless. • Remember that you can bring medications through a security checkpoint, even liquid medication. Just let the TSA officer know that you have liquid medication with you so it can be screened separately. • Remember to get a REAL ID-compliant driver’s license sooner rather than later because REAL ID goes into effect on May 7.
Colman Domingo Details Why ‘The Madness’ Is a Drama for Today’s Era of Media Feeding FrenziesEast Baton Rouge Parish Mayor President Elect Sid Edwards speaks before supporters after winning the election at White Oaks Estate and Gardens on Saturday, December 7, 2024. Facebook Twitter WhatsApp SMS Email Print Copy article link Save Winning swing voters Couvillon says one big factor in Edwards' win was moderate White voters. In each of her past wins in 2016 and 2020, Broome got significant support from this pool, as did Kip Holden — another Black Democrat — in his races for mayor. Istrouma head coach Sid Edwards stands on the field as the team runs through senior night festivities before the District 6-4A game against Brusly on Friday, November 8, 2024 in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. But Democrat Ted James, a former state representative, campaigned hard to get those votes in the November primary. "Virtually every Ted James White voter voted for Sid," Couvillon said. "It's really hard to escape any other conclusion than the fact that voters wanted things to change." Endorsements did not seem to matter. James backed Broome after he was eliminated from the race, as did former Gove. John Bel Edwards. Voters weren't swayed and "made their own choices," Couvillon said. Mayor-President Sharon Weston Broome gets a hug from her husband Marvin Broome following her concession speech following the run-off election on Saturday, December 7, 2024 in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. With less money and less political experience, Edwards was able to break the historical template for this race and win as a Republican in a parish that broke 11 points for Democrat Kamala Harris' presidential bid a month ago. And he did so after entering the race at the last minute, qualifying four months after James announced his candidacy. "The thing that impressed me is ... the fact that Sid Edwards was able to get past all that and win," Couvillon said. "Coach Edwards broke all the rules." The win — which is the first election loss of Broome's 32-year political career — also points toward a broader political trend since "Donald Trump rode down that infamous golden escalator in 2015," the analyst said. Voters are now more willing to look past a candidate's conventional shortcomings, like Edwards' 8.5-year period of not voting, and be forgiving as long as the candidate is candid in their explanation, Couvillon said. Big differences in turnout Turnout totals were down across the parish compared to the 2020 runoff. Unofficial numbers Sunday showed 105,895 votes were cast for mayor-president in 2024, nearly 10,000 less than the 115,848 four years ago. But what matters is where that low turnout happened. Broome got about 17,000 fewer votes than she did in 2020. And a big portion of the shortfall came from Black precincts in north Baton Rouge. Sid Edwards supporters cheer loudly as he enters the room to declare himself East Baton Rouge Parish Mayor President Elect before supporters after winning the election at White Oaks Estate and Gardens on Saturday, December 7, 2024. In the five precincts where Broome won the most votes in 2020, the mayor totaled 1,633 votes in the runoff four years ago. Broome still overwhelmingly won those precincts this cycle, but only got 1,151 votes. Meanwhile, turnout didn't fall as much in many majority-White districts. Edwards' vote total Saturday among the five precincts that carried the most Republican votes in 2020 was virtually the same as Republican Steve Carter four years ago. "You had lower Black turnout and you had lower White turnout too, just not to the same extent," Couvillon said. In the new city of St. George, for example, about 27,000 people — the majority of whom went Republican — voted Saturday. One potential reason: A tax swap crucial to funding St. George's new government was on the same ballot as the mayors race in those precincts. Edwards' team also credits a strong get-out-the-vote effort. "I think our ground game made the difference. We knocked on over 25,000 doors," said Edwards' campaign manager Mason Batts. "That's probably something no Republican candidate in this parish has ever done.” Couvillion said Edwards was able to double his percentage of Black votes from 5% to 10% between the race's primary election and the runoff. That, combined with Edwards' better performance in White moderate communities than past GOP candidates — many of whom opted for James a month ago — won him the election. "When I saw that the turnout in the minority areas was really bad, and Sharon wasn't closing strongly enough, that's when I felt I could make a call," Couvillon said. "Because it wasn't like there was this massive vote that was going to save her."VERMILLION, S.D. — No. 4-ranked South Dakota stunned top-ranked North Dakota State with a last-second touchdown off a scramble. Javion Phelps caught a 25-yard touchdown with 12 seconds remaining to lift the Coyotes to a 29-28 victory against the Bison on Saturday in Missouri Valley Football Conference play at the DakotaDome. NDSU (10-2, 8-1 MVFC) had its 10-game winning streak snapped and now share the conference crown with multiple teams. The FCS selection show is scheduled for 11:30 a.m. Sunday, Nov. 24, on ESPNU. The Bison could have earned a top-2 seed with a victory. South Dakota (9-2, 7-1) also earned a share of the MFVC championship. Montana State completed an undefeated regular season and will likely be the No. 1 seed for the playoffs. Bison quarterback Cam Miller completed 10 of 22 passes for 174 yards and one touchdown. He also rushed for 82 yards and one TD on 19 attempts after a slow start. The Coyotes raced to a 14-0 lead before NDSU responded in a game that had huge momentum shifts. The Coyotes had the lead early in the second half. USD kicker Will Leyland hit a 37-yard field goal to give the Coyotes a 17-14 lead with 10 minutes, 21 seconds to play in the third quarter. That capped a 10-play, 51-yard drive. Miller scored on a 2-yard touchdown run to give the Bison a 21-17 lead with 4:48 to play in the third quarter, giving NDSU its first lead. That capped an 80-yard drive that took 10 plays. The 5-foot-11, 214-pound Brown capped an epic 99-yard drive with a 1-yard TD run for a 28-17 lead with 4:10 remaining in the fourth quarter. The long march lasted 20 plays and NDSU converted two fourth-and-1s in its own territory to extend the drive. The Bison looked in control at that point. USD answered with a big drive. Wide receiver Jack Martens caught a 40-yard TD pass from quarterback Aidan Bouman to cut the lead to 28-23 with 3:22 remaining. The Coyotes missed on their two-point conversion attempt. Phelps later added his clutch TD catch for a 29-28 lead. The game-winning touchdown catch came after a Bison sack and Phelps broke wide open after UDS hurried to regroup and run a play with the game clock winding down. The Coyotes started strong. Running back Travis Theis scored on a 6-yard touchdown run to give USD a 7-0 lead with 6:35 remaining in the first quarter. That capped an 80-yard drive that took 11 plays. The Coyotes converted on third-and-17 and third-and-9 on that scoring march. Theis added a 14-yard TD run for a 14-0 lead with 12:44 to play in the second quarter. That capped a 73-yard drive that lasted seven plays. USD had a 158-9 edge in yards after that score. Braylon Henderson countered with a 23-yard touchdown catch to cut the USD lead to 14-7 with 2:39 to play in the first half. That capped a 66-yard drive in six plays. Earlier in the drive, RaJa Nelson had a 30-yard catch that moved the ball to the USD 18-yard line. Marty Brown scored on a 3-yard touchdown run to even the score at 14-14 with 26 seconds remaining in the first half. That capped an 83-yard drive in nine plays. Bryce Lance helped set up that score with a 48-yard catch to the USD 24. The Bison finished the first half with 173 yards on 30 plays, while the Coyotes had 184 yards on 32 plays.

As I mentioned last week, coyotes are fairly common throughout all of New England these days, but I’ve seen them on only a few occasions. The recent sighting was my closest encounter with a coyote to date and the only one so far that afforded a photo opp. As is often the case, once I get a decent photo of a species, I do a deep dive into its life history. Here are some interesting facts (at least I found them interesting) about the eastern coyote, gleaned from several sources on the Internet. Eastern coyotes are much larger than western coyotes, up to twice the size, according to the N.H. Fish and Game Department, and range in color from “silvery gray to grizzled, brownish red.” Based on the one I saw the other week, I am not surprised to learn that eastern coyotes are bigger than their western relatives. “My” coyote was big and sturdy looking with a rich, thick coat and bushy tail. It was the opposite of the sickly, scraggly-looking animal that many may imagine when picturing a coyote. Eastern coyotes have a genetic mix of coyote, domestic dog and wolf, hence their larger size. “Recent genetic research has attributed the eastern coyote’s larger size and unique behavioral characteristics to interbreeding with Eastern Canadian wolves,” N.H. Fish and Game writes on its website. Coyotes are a relatively new species to the region. Although it is unclear whether they are historically native to the region, N.H. Fish and Game states that there were no coyotes present in New Hampshire in the late 1800s, and the first verified account was in 1944. They gradually spread throughout the state and are now found in every county. I can recall two incidents, one in Errol near Umbagog Lake and one in Pittsburg near the Canadian border, where I was alone in the woods and heard a pack of coyotes howling and yipping back and forth. Both incidents were in the middle of the day. The frantic and loud nature of the communication was simultaneously unsettling and exhilarating. I never caught a glimpse of the pack in either case. “Coyotes are capable of many distinct vocalizations — the yipping of youngsters, barks to indicate a threat, long howls used to bring pack members together, and group yip-howls issued when pack members reunite,” N.H. Fish and Game writes. Coyotes, contrary to what some believe, do not howl or otherwise vocalize after making a kill, as that could draw the attention of other predators. “The last thing coyotes would want to do is attract competing coyotes or other predators to their hard-earned kill or to announce their presence to any nearby prey before a hunt. Their howls, yips, and barks likely have more to do with cementing family bonds and defending/establishing territory,” writes the National Park Service on its website. Coyotes have a varied diet that includes rodents, squirrels, rabbits and hares, insects, fruit, and even carrion and garbage. They have also been known to take house cats and small dogs. In other words, they have adapted well to living among people. “As for your safety, coyotes pose little risk to people,” N.H. Fish and Game writes. Controlling coyotes has proven to be a difficult task, as they are smart, elusive and produce a lot of offspring. Hunting season is open all year for shooting in New Hampshire, and there is also a five-month trapping season. It is illegal to use poison as a means of control. “Few animal species have been persecuted and hunted down with as much vigor and vitriol as the coyote in the United States,” the National Park Service writes. I’ve never lost a pet to a coyote, and I don’t have a farm to protect, so I like the idea of coyotes living among us. The resourceful predators add mystery, verve and diversity to New England’s wild landscape.
The state's new $4-billion intercity train fleet is a step closer to carrying passengers from Newcastle to Sydney after sitting idle in a handful of sheds across the state for years due to a union dispute about on-board safety. Login or signup to continue reading The national independent rail safety regulator passed the double-decker trains after a safety assurance assessment and approved them for use on the Newcastle and Central Coast lines. Although the NSW government's transport department welcomed the approval this week, a definitive passenger service launch date has not been set. "We look forward to bringing the New Intercity Fleet into service and will have more to say soon," Transport Minister Jo Haylen said. The approval comes more than four years after the first trains arrived in Australia from Korea. However, concerns raised by the Rail, Tram and Bus Union (RTBU) led to a significant delay in their rollout. The union called for modifications to allow guards to monitor passengers getting on and off at stations and took issue with train staff numbers, the operation of CCTV and train doors. The Korean-built electric trains were expected to carry passengers this year after the state and the Rail, Tram, and Bus Union (RTBU) reached the "vital agreement" to modify the fleet in November 2022. Improvements for passengers include wider seating, tray tables, high seat backs, charging ports, spaces for luggage or bikes, modern heating and cooling, and greater accessibility. The Office of the National Rail Safety Regulator said in a statement that a start date for passenger services was "a matter for the NSW government". The Rail, Tram and Bus Union has been contacted for comment. Simon McCarthy is a journalist with the Newcastle Herald and its sister publications in the Hunter region of New South Wales (NSW).
