Afghan women turn to entrepreneurship under TalibanRams WR Demarcus Robinson not suspended, will play Sunday after arrest on DUI suspicionLeo Alfred Auger, 89, a longtime resident of Keene, passed away on Dec. 3, 2024, at the Alpine Healthcare Center in Keene. He was born in Troy on Jan. 24, 1935, the son of Arthur J. and Rosealba (Harness) Auger. He grew up in Troy and attended Troy schools, graduating in 1954 from Troy High School. Leo served honorably as a corporal in the U.S. Marine Corps. Following his military duties, he returned home and was employed as a supervisor at the MPB Corporation for more than 40 years. He was a member of the Parish of the Holy Spirit and attended St. Bernard Church in Keene. He was also a member of the Knights of Columbus Council No. 819 of St. Bernard Church. Leo loved traveling, going to many islands with his wife, children and friends. Bermuda was their favorite and they visited there many times. Right after retirement, Leo and Jean drove cross-country, stopping to see many attractions coast to coast. For many years, the couple wintered in Florida. Their first home was in Zephyrhills, and later in Lakeland. They loved visits from family and friends and were blessed by many friendships they made with people from all over the country. Summer vacations were enjoyed by all. These vacations included going to the beaches of New Hampshire and Maine, renting a cottage, taking the children to theme parks and hiking in the White Mountains. They would go to their son’s campsite to relax, taking boat rides, having cookouts and partying. Leo loved being outside during the summer working in the vegetable garden, doing yard work or relaxing by the pool. Above all, he loved being with his family. Football season was a special time of year when their three sons would come over, sometimes bringing friends, to watch the games. They never missed a Patriots game! Leo is survived by his wife of 69 years, Jean S. (Zinn) Auger, of Keene; three sons: Keith Auger and his wife, Diane Richards; Mark Auger and his life partner, Beth Hull; and Glenn Auger and his wife, Dee, all of Keene; four grandchildren: Jennifer Mackay and her husband, Nate; Stephanie Auger; Brooke Place and her husband, Brandon; and Tia Auger and her partner, Anthony Oatley; two great-grandchildren, Addison Mackay and Gavin Mackay; a daughter-in-law, Brigitte Auger; and several nieces, nephews and extended family members.

Two weeks after she beat a transgender candidate to return to the Utah Legislature, the Republican state lawmaker behind the majority of the state’s anti-transgender laws is advocating for policies that strip additional rights from trans people. Rep. Kera Birkeland, of Morgan, posted to X on Thursday that transgender women, specifically, should not be able to amend their birth certificates or IDs to reflect their gender. “Men should not be allowed in women’s bathrooms,” Birkeland wrote. “However, achieving this goal requires more than just signing or passing a bill that articulates this stance. We need to address the underlying issue of allowing men to change their birth certificates and driver’s licenses to reflect a female identity.” Birkeland continued, “Until we achieve that, our primary action is to run message bills, that are almost unenforceable. If a man can obtain a driver’s license identifying him as a woman, secure a birth certificate identifying him as a woman, and undergo surgical procedures to alter his appearance to look similar to women, it becomes nearly impossible for the government to distinguish between him and Representative Mace. That presents a significant challenge in enforcement.” Birkeland’s post was written in support of U.S. Rep. Nancy Mace, R-North Carolina, who responded to the first transgender woman being elected to Congress by pushing for her and other transgender women not to be allowed in women’s restrooms at the U.S. Capitol. I completely agree with @RepNancyMace that men should not be allowed in women’s bathrooms. However, achieving this goal requires more than just signing or passing a bill that articulates this stance. We need to address the underlying issue of allowing men to change their birth... The post comes one day after Transgender Day of Remembrance — an annual occasion memorializing transgender people lost to violence or suicide due to attacks on their identity. The Utah Supreme Court ruled in 2021 that transgender Utahns have “a common-law right to change facets of their personal legal status, including their sex designation.” “My life was going forward day by day sometimes is not easy,” said Angie Rice, a transgender woman and one of the plaintiffs in the case, at the time. “But (this decision)... gives young people and everybody who has been suffering in silence, or victimized, it gives them a chance to believe in hope and have the courage to now live their truth.” Since she was first appointed to the House in 2020, Birkeland has led a push to bar transgender girls from high school sports. Since the Legislature passed a law she sponsored to do so in 2022, and overrode the governor’s veto , the ban has been partially blocked by a lawsuit. Meanwhile, a commission weighs the cases of young transgender athletes who want to participate in sports. This year, Birkeland successfully proposed a bill that creates legal definitions “female” and “male” to categorize Utahns by the reproductive organs of their birth, and prohibits transgender Utahns from using locker rooms or bathrooms that align with their gender in government-owned buildings. Republican lawmakers repeatedly employed misinformation about transgender Utahns while working to rally support for the bill, an investigation by The Salt Lake Tribune found . Utah, which has passed restrictions on transgender people for three consecutive years, also prohibits transgender minors from accessing gender-affirming health care . Birkeland did not respond to questions about whether she would introduce bills to enact such policy shifts in the 2025 legislative session, but told KUER earlier this month that she isn’t planning on proposing legislation impacting the transgender community. A spokesperson for the Utah House of Representatives did not respond to questions as to GOP leadership’s feelings on such policies, or whether other members of their caucus would draft bills including them. On Monday, legislative leadership and Gov. Spencer Cox urged Utah State University to join a lawsuit against the Mountain West Conference over its transgender participation policy — weeks after players on the school’s volleyball team opted to forfeit a game against another team that allegedly includes a transgender athlete. The school filed a motion to join soon after. “Female athletes deserve the right to a safe playing field, fair competition and equal opportunities,” the officials said in a statement. “By intervening, Utah will send a clear message that these rights are non-negotiable.” Utah House Democrats responded with a statement of their own, writing, “Transgender athletes have participated in sports for years without facing the intense scrutiny they endure today. Targeting them harms their mental health, further isolates an already vulnerable population, and goes against the inclusive values we should all uphold. This is not the Utah way.” Birkeland’s post also follows an anti-transgender political action committee that appears to be violating campaign finance laws and aimed to influence the outcome of a state legislative race in a district bordering hers. Despite establishing a website, deploying mailers and sending texts attacking Democrats throughout the state for opposing restrictions on transgender Utahns, including the only Democrat outside of Salt Lake County , the out-of-state Preserving Utah Values PAC reports that it has raised and spent $0 during the 2024 election cycle. The United Nations recognizes transgender people’s ability to change official documents, including birth certificates, as a human right. “Failing to provide access to legal gender recognition hinders access to rights and services (e.g. education, employment, bathrooms) and puts trans people at risk of violence (e.g. when presenting documents that don’t match their appearance),” reads the website for the supranational organization’s high commissioner for human rights. “Trans people are at particular risk of violence in detention settings when their gender identity is not respected.” According to the Utah Bureau of Criminal Identification , hate crimes against LGBTQ+ Utahns more than doubled from 2022 to 2023. This year, law enforcement agencies have reported 15 incidents.Upstart Holdings Stock Surges After Needham Upgrade: Retail Sentiment Soars

Liverpool emerged from their huge Champions League match against Real Madrid as the victors, as goals from Alexis Mac Allister and Cody Gakpo secured a 2-0 win against the reigning European Champions . The Merseyside club outclassed their opponents on the night, sweeping them aside to return to the top of the new league table. Aside from Kylian Mbappe's penalty miss, the visitors barely troubled Arne Slot's side, who could also have grabbed a third had Mohamed Salah's own penalty hit the target. Almost every player put in an exceptional performance which thrilled those watching in attendance and on TV. Yet one player in particular has garnered widespread praise for his performance on the night, and that man is Conor Bradley. Mainly utilised as a back-up option to Trent Alexander-Arnold since breaking into the team, the Northern Irishman was tasked with his most difficult assessment yet as a Liverpool player in keeping Mbappe quiet. And he did brilliantly. Concerning footage of Ibrahima Konate has emerged after Liverpool's 2-0 win against Real Madrid. Bradley's Performance Against Madrid Despite the magnitude of the challenge, Bradley rose to the occasion and quickly showed that he was not going to be intimidated by his opposite number on the night. He barely gave Mbappe a second to breath when in possession as he crowded the Frenchman out of the game. One of the highlights from the game was his early challenge on the Los Blancos attacker, which sent the Anfield crowd wild with excitement. And he was just as dangerous going forward as he was defensively, providing a deft assist for Alexis Mac Allister for the opening goal of the game. Bradley's performance was backed up by the statistics too. Nobody contested more duels than the Northern Irishman, with him winning eight out of 12. And nobody made more tackles or made more defensive actions, while he was also neat and tidy in possession. The only downsides for him on the night were the big chance that he missed during the match and the fact that he had to go off early because of an apparent hamstring injury. Fans React to Bradley's Performance Many took to social media after the game to express delight at Bradley's performance, with former Liverpool striker Daniel Sturridge among them. Writing on X, he said, "Bradley MOTM tonight". Considering that the likes of Curtis Jones and Mac Allister both had stellar performances too, it goes to show just how impressive the defender was. Others also echoed Sturridge's praise, with one fan describing the Northern Irishman as 'fantastic', while the Athletic's James Pearce called him 'exceptional' after his tackle on Mbappe during the game. And with first-choice right-back Alexander-Arnold constantly linked to Real Madrid as his contract winds down at the end of the season, others also believe that Bradley's display was convincing enough to make him the man to step up should the Englishman decide to leave. One supporter wrote: "Bradley right there to step in and replace Trent if he leaves," while another said, "Conor Bradley came out here tonight and told Trent to go to Madrid." Although many fans will want Alexander-Arnold to sign a new deal, they will take comfort in knowing that they have another outstanding right-back waiting in the wings.

The sting of defeat after being thoroughly dominated in a 77-62 loss to No. 5 UCLA on Sunday. Gone was the overall 43-game winning streak. Done was the run of 33 consecutive road victories. And the No. 1 ranking it's held for 23 consecutive polls will disappear Monday. "This is what we usually do to teams," coach Dawn Staley said. "We were on the receiving end of it." South Carolina hadn't lost since April 2023, when Caitlin Clark and Iowa beat the Gamecocks in the national semifinals of the NCAA Tournament. The Bruins (5-0) shot 47% from the floor and 3-point range, hit 11 of 14 free throws and had five players in double figures. "They actually executed our game plan to a T," Staley said. The Gamecocks (5-1) were held to 36% shooting, had just two players in double figures and neither was leading scorer Chloe Kitts, who was held to 2 points on 1 of 7 shooting. They never led, got beat on the boards, 41-34, and were outscored 26-18 in the paint and 8-1 in fast break points. They only made eight trips to the free throw line. "Our kids fought," Staley said, "but we ran into a buzzsaw." South Carolina did manage to limit 6-foot-7 UCLA star Lauren Betts, who had 11 points and 14 rebounds, despite no longer having a dominant center of their own. The Bruins responded by getting the ball to others and eight of their 10 players scored. "We did an excellent job on Betts and we got killed by everyone else," Staley said. Tessa Johnson was the only other Gamecock in double figures with 14. "We needed a lot more than Tessa today," Staley said. The Gamecocks never got their offense in gear, starting the game 0 for 9 before trailing 20-10 at the end of the first quarter. They were down 43-22 at halftime. "Our shot selection is something we're dealing with on a daily basis," Staley said. The Gamecocks outscored UCLA 40-34 in the second half, but the Bruins' big early lead easily held up. "Beautiful basketball by UCLA," Staley said. "You can't help but to love up on it cause it was fluid on both sides of the ball." Given that it's only late November, the Gamecocks have plenty of time to figure things out. "We had some really good contributions from people that don't play a whole lot and we could probably give a little bit more minutes to," Staley said. "Taking a loss will help us focus on anybody that we play."

Strictly's Dianne Buswell interrupts live broadcast as she breaks down in tears
Mikel Arteta admitted Arsenal’s 5-2 win at West Ham was “crazy”, but he believes his side have got their momentum back in the Premier League title race. The Gunners have proved reports of their demise have been exaggerated after three thumping wins in the space of a week. Advertisement Having gone five Premier League matches without a win until they beat Nottingham Forest 3-0 last weekend, Arsenal then thrashed Sporting Lisbon 5-1 in the Champions League on Tuesday. They then put in another five-star display in a breathless encounter – or first half at least – at the London Stadium. Advertisement Just as they had in Lisbon, Arsenal had five different scorers, with Gabriel, Leandro Trossard, Martin Odegaard, Kai Havertz and Bukayo Saka finding the net. West Ham waited until they were 4-0 down before showing a modicum of fight, with goals from Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Emerson Palmieri briefly making things interesting. But Saka rolled in a penalty to put Arsenal back in charge and ensure the second half was a non-event. The Gunners can now put their feet up and watch title rivals Liverpool and Manchester City try to take points off each other on Sunday. Advertisement It was a record-equalling score-line, only the fourth time seven goals have been scored in the first half of a Premier League match. Advertisement “That tells you how crazy it was,” said Arteta. “A spectacular 30 minutes, straight away showed how much the team wanted it, to score three great goals in different ways and then the fourth. “But then after that we had a period with the quality of them, at 4-2 and it’s game on, the energy changed. And what’s next? So it was great to score the fifth one and we could play a very different game in the second half. “We’ve got some momentum, some flow back, three consecutive wins is great. We’re going to enjoy tonight and watch a good game of football tomorrow. “We are in a great moment. But in football, be on your toes. It’s so competitive. We’ll analyse today and go again tomorrow.” Advertisement Hammers boss Julen Lopetegui felt Arsenal’s first goal, another inventive corner routine which saw Jurrien Timber barge Lucas Paqueta out of the way before Gabriel headed home, should not have counted. Lukasz Fabianski’s inadvertent punch on Gabriel earned Arsenal a penalty (Chris Radburn/PA). He had no complaints about Trossard’s tap-in from Saka’s cross, or the foul on Saka by a combination of Emerson and Paqueta which allowed Odegaard to add the third from the spot. Arsenal’s fourth came from a mistake from Max Kilman which allowed Havertz to race through. But Lopetegui also felt Lukasz Fabianski’s inadvertent punch on Gabriel, rather than the ball, was not sufficient to give the Gunners a second penalty. Sport Saturday Sport: Cuala crowned Leinster football ch... Read More “It was a very strange first half – we didn’t deserve two goals and they didn’t deserve five,” he said. “Some very strange things happened. The first goal was a set-piece that we prepared for and it’s a clear foul. We have to do better with the second and third goals. “We scored two goals with positive energy and then the fifth goal, the penalty, in my opinion is not a penalty. The fifth goal killed the match.”
