Musk says US is demanding he pay penalty over disclosures of his Twitter stock purchases DETROIT (AP) — Elon Musk says the Securities and Exchange Commission wants him to pay a penalty or face charges involving what he disclosed — or failed to disclose — about his purchases of Twitter stock before he bought the social media platform in 2022. In a letter, Musk’s lawyer Alex Spiro tells the outgoing SEC chairman, Gary Gensler, that the commission’s demand for a monetary payment is a “misguided scheme” that won’t intimidate Musk. The letter also alleges that the commission reopened an investigation this week into Neuralink, Musk’s computer-to-human brain interface company. The SEC has not released the letter. Nor would it comment on it or confirm whether it has issued such a demand to Musk. Senate begins final push to expand Social Security benefits for millions of people WASHINGTON (AP) — The Senate is pushing toward a vote on legislation that would provide full Social Security benefits to millions of people. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer began the process on Thursday for a final vote on the bill, known as the Social Security Fairness Act. It would eliminate policies that currently limit Social Security payouts for roughly 2.8 million people. The legislation has passed the House. The bill would add more strain on the Social Security Trust funds, which are already estimated to be unable to pay out full benefits beginning in 2035. The measure would add an estimated $195 billion to federal deficits over 10 years, according to the Congressional Budget Office. Trump offers support for dockworkers union by saying ports shouldn't install more automated systems WASHINGTON (AP) — President-elect Donald Trump is offering his support for the dockworkers union before their contract expires next month at Eastern and Gulf Coast ports. He posted on social media Thursday that he met with union leaders and that any further “automation” of the ports would harm workers. He wrote that the “amount of money saved is nowhere near the distress, hurt, and harm it causes for American Workers.” The International Longshoremen’s Association has until Jan. 15 to negotiate a new contract with the U.S. Maritime Alliance, which represents ports and shipping companies. The Maritime Alliance says the technology will improve worker safety and strengthen our supply chains, among other things. IRS recovers $4.7 billion in back taxes and braces for cuts with Trump and GOP in power WASHINGTON (AP) — IRS leadership on Thursday announced that the agency has recovered $4.7 billion in back taxes and proceeds from a variety of crimes.

China signals it's prepared to double down on support for the economy as Trump tariffs loom BANGKOK (AP) — Chinese leaders met this week to plot economic policy for the coming year and sketched out plans to raise government spending and relax Beijing's monetary policy. Analysts said the broad-brush plans from the annual Central Economic Work Conference were more of a recap of current policy than ambitious new initiatives at a time when the outlook is clouded by the President-elect Donald Trump's threats to sharply raise tariffs once he takes office. The ruling Communist Party did commit to raising China's deficit and to doing more to encourage consumer spending by bringing wage increases in line with the pace of economic growth. Here's a look at China's main priorities and their potential implications. Stock market today: Wall Street slips at the end of a bumpy week Stocks slipped as Wall Street closes out a rare bumpy week.

Yet actually the BBC drama doesn't deserve the flack it's getting. Viewers have said it's "too slow" or that it's "boring" as they crave drama and excitement. Yet from the brutal execution scenes of Anne Boleyn to the chess-like power play from Cromwell around King Henry VIII, this is the reality of Tudor Britain and it certainly wasn't pretty. When Anne Boleyn's beheading aired at the beginning of episode one of the new series, viewers claimed they were 'traumatised' by the blood and gore. Yet it's a beheading so I don't know why viewers were expecting anything less than a brutal death. More on Wolf Hall Boleyn's death might have come from a French swordsman who did it quickly but there was always going to be blood and it was never going to be a clean death. The reality is that despite this being a drama based off Hilary Mantle's historical fiction, the Tudor times were still a dark part of history . That means romps, sexual tension and growing romances don't really have a place here. If you're looking for soft moments, sweet glances between lovers and falling in love then look to Bridgerton or another period drama, because Wolf Hall isn't it. Most read in News TV It's a masterclass in political power play with the stoic Mark Rylance leading the way. The man's eyebrows can say more than a whole scene of dialogue, and he's portraying the quick thinking mind of Cromwell expertly. Cromwell was ultimately the orchestra of Henry's split from Catharine of Aragon, his set up with Boleyn and then the next marriage to quiet Jane Seymour. There were no sword fights, daring duels or explosive rows, but ultimately smart moves, political alliances and engineered conversations was how Cromwell created the Tudor history we know about. As a Tudor history fan and someone who has been eagerly awaiting the second series of Wolf Hall the minute the first ended, this second season hasn't left me disappointed. In fact if anything I'm more in awe of how the drama is retelling the Hilary Mantle historical fiction and how its developing the Tudor court on screen. When I find myself craving a romance I'll look to the next season of Bridgerton or the romance in series like Sanditon or Outlander .Proposed ‘Carla Walker Act' could fund advanced DNA testing to solve cold cases

MY JOB Name : John Deery Occupation : Communications coach and founder of The Public Speaking Course Background : A trained actor, John Deery has used his communication skills to help people overcome their greatest fear. Death, divorce and moving house are often cited as the greatest trials of life, but, for some, a deserved fourth on that list is the terror of public speaking. Fear of public speaking is a common form of anxiety, and can range from slight nervousness to paralysing fear and panic. As American writer and humorist, Mark Twain observed: “There are two types of public speakers — those who get nervous and those who are liars.” Statistically, over 75% of people suffer from ‘glossophobia’ — a fear of public speaking that manifests as high levels of anxiety and nerves. “Most people are not natural communicators or born public speakers,” explains John Deery. “Many people are fearful, nervous and self-conscious in front of an audience.” He points out the ‘little voice’ in their head is constantly over-thinking: ‘What will they think of me? What if I go blank and forget what I am saying? What happens if I make a mistake?’ That constant voice of fear whispers that people will think you are boring. “That voice says people will laugh at you, that you’re not good enough, that you don’t deserve to be there, that your speech will be a disaster and you will be fully exposed for what you truly are — an imposter.” Those who fail to face their fear of speaking in public are putting themselves at a professional disadvantage, with their incomes likely to be impaired up to 10% and promotion prospects shrinking by 15%, according to research from Columbia University. While research shows the fear of public speaking affects as many as three in four of the population, just 8% of people have taken deliberate measures to overcome it. “Humans are hardwired to be cautious about public speaking. We are social animals who evolved to rely on the group and so to avoid anything that might reduce our standing within it, like speaking out of turn. "The good news is that modern psychology has given us tools to override our programming and while some of the techniques we deploy on The Public Speaking Course are specific to the individual, many can be applied to every public speaking situation.” Mr Deery also cautions a fear of public speaking affects the student population, reducing the likelihood of college graduation by 10%. “I am very big on education and have worked with young people to overcome what would often be shyness at that younger age. I think more needs to be done in schools and universities to address this fear — I’ve seen many people who are frightened to attend a job interview because they don’t know how to behave or respond.” Hiding behind tech or social media and not wanting to physically or vocally engage is a problem that was further exacerbated by covid: “People stay exclusively with email or text in order to shy away from having a conversation. The previous habit of adding a phone number at the end of an email is no longer the case,” he adds. Clear, concise communication and the ability to stand up and speak without fear will help to get your message across, whether that be in a professional work environment or in a personal capacity, is key to overcoming this fear, he says. "I have worked with individuals and companies all over the world — Europe, the USA, Australia, Asia — and it is a fear that goes right across all cultures and ethnicities — a human condition crossing all geographical borders. "Having helped people from all walks of life: graduates starting out, CEOs, business owners, entrepreneurs, doctors, lawyers, teachers and politicians, the terror of standing alone on stage to address large and small numbers is universal." “That fear crosses all boundaries — age, gender, nationality — with the majority in that 35 to 45 age group, generally a time in life when they are starting to advance in their careers and will need to speak at business gatherings or conferences.” He has also worked with a variety of companies and organisations, including PricewaterhouseCoopers, Unilever, BT, Pulsant, HSBC, Apple, Microsoft, NHS, Samsung and KPMG. Fear of public speaking has held back many a career progression, simply because those individuals knew such a promotion would require the ability to address a group or conference — and so they did not take that job opportunity. Mr Deery began his career as an actor working in theatre, television and film. Shortly after leaving the Drama Studio in London, he joined the BBC Radio Drama Repertory Company and appeared in hundreds of radio broadcasts. He has used his presenting skills for many large companies and corporations, including being the main presenter for BT for five years, travelling all over the UK to present their latest technology to boards, business customers and strategic partners. On the back of that work, Mr Deery was asked to develop a one-day course teaching employees to speak and present in public for some of the UK’s leading companies. Thus began his current passion to help people overcome their greatest fear. In terms of helping to improve one’s ability to confront this universal fear, he offers a number of tips. “If you can, always check out where you are speaking beforehand — break the ‘fear’ of the room. Before you begin, take slow, conscious breaths — in through the nose and out through the mouth. Your exhale should last twice as long as your inhale — this will calm you down in any situation.” Staying present and being in the now assists that calm: “Remember you are telling a story — focus on the beginning, middle and end. Make eye contact with your audience where possible, just for a split second, taking in all areas of the room.” Using your body to take up space yields another physical advantage: “Don’t apologise for being there — just be fully present, no matter what happens during your talk. And, if the worst does happen, if you make a mistake or go blank — acknowledge it and move on.” thepublicspeakingcourse.com

In another at-times ugly, grind-it-out game, the Minnesota Vikings once again found a way to come out on top, beating the Chicago Bears 30-27 in overtime on Sunday at Soldier Field. Justin Jefferson had just two catches for 27 yards, drawing double-teams all day, although he also coaxed two pass interference calls totaling 45 yards. However, the offense still was fine moving the ball. Jordan Addison had what is easily his best game of the season so far, tallying a career-high eight catches and 161 yards and a touchdown, and T.J. Hockenson added 115 yards on seven catches. Aaron Jones contributed 106 yards and a score on the ground plus three catches for 23 yards, and Sam Darnold finished 22-of-34 for 330 yards and a pair of touchdowns. Follow Inside the Vikings on Facebook Still, the Vikings had more missed opportunities on Sunday. The team had six trips to the red zone but fumbled one away and had to settle for field goals on two others. Minnesota also had three three-and-outs and a turnover on downs, in which the Vikings went for it on 4th-and-1 at Chicago's 36-yard line but went five wide receivers out wide and threw incomplete, failing to turn their lead into a three-score margin. On the ensuing drive, the Bears went 64 yards in 10 plays to cut the lead to eight. Defensively, it was a mixed bag for the Vikings. The unit forced four three-and-outs, a turnover on downs and blocked a field goal, but Chicago's offense also moved the ball well. Caleb Williams finished 30-of-44 for 330 yards and two touchdowns, ran for 32 more yards and diced the secondary up at times. Williams and the Bears had six passing plays of at least 15 yards against the Vikings. Then the Bears scored 11 points in 22 seconds. First, it was a last-minute touchdown and two-point conversion, and then a Vikings gaffe gave Chicago another chance. An onside kick went off tight end Johnny Mundt's foot as he blocked, allowing the Bears to recover. They then picked up 27 yards on one play to set up a game-tying 48-yard field goal, which Cairo Santos nailed to send the game to overtime. In the extra frame, Williams took a 12-yard sack and a delay of game, forcing Chicago to punt. The Vikings' drive started poorly, too, with Darnold taking a sack. However, from there, the team marched 75 yards over nine plays, capped off by a John Parker Romo game-winning field goal from 29 yards out. It wasn't pretty but the Vikings are 9-2 and remain just a game back of Detroit. Daniel Bartel-Imagn Images
