Dr. Suganthan Kayilasanathan Launches New Personal Website to Inspire Future Generations of Healthcare ProfessionalsCNN's Bakari Sellers called out the Harris campaign staffers who appeared on 'Pod Save America' on Wednesday, as well as the podcast itself, following the Harris staffers' post-election interview. A group of Vice President Kamala Harris' campaign aides were accused by liberals of gaslighting and taking no accountability in a post-election podcast interview about what went wrong for Democrats in the election. "Pod Save America" host Dan Pffeifer spoke with Jen O'Malley Dillon, David Plouffe, Quentin Fulks and Stephanie Cutter in the Harris campaign's first major interview since the vice president's loss to President-elect Trump. The questioning and the defensive posture by the guests was sharply criticized by online progressives. "Listened to the @PodSaveAmerica bros interview the Kamala campaign team and it was....somewhere between disappointing and enraging. I would not hire these guys if I was running the next D campaign," Ben Yelin, a podcast host and law professor, wrote in reaction to the podcast. "The more I listen to this, the worse it gets. Fully discrediting. Every five minutes they reference the fact that the campaign was short, that they didn't have enough time. FIRST OF ALL, all of these guys, except Plouffe, were part of the Biden campaign, so they could have helped give Kamala more time by getting him to drop out earlier." The Harris aides complained about media coverage and repeatedly cited their time crunch of just over 100 days to put together a campaign, which was due to President Biden going effectively unchallenged in the Democratic primary and not dropping out until three weeks after a disastrous June debate with Trump. Social media critics piled on the aides who just lost an election that Democrats and members of the media repeatedly warned was the most consequential in history. MSNBC WAS ‘UNAWARE’ HARRIS CAMPAIGN GAVE $500K TO AL SHARPTON’S GROUP AHEAD OF FRIENDLY INTERVIEW Pollster Nate Silver also called out the aides on social media and said the staffers are "the most non-agentic people I've encountered in a position of comparable decision-making authority." "They don't even see themselves as victims so much as Non-Player Characters with no will of their own," he added. "I do think a narrative, 107 days... two weeks talking about how she didn't do interviews, which you know she was doing plenty, but we were doing in our own way, we had to be the nominee, we had to find a running mate, and do a roll-out, I mean there was all these things that you kind of want to factor in. But real people heard, in some way, that we were not going to have interviews, which was both not true and also so counter to any kind of standard that was put on Trump, that I think that was a problem," Dillon said during the podcast, prefacing the statement by saying she isn't a "media hater." She went on to say that the narrative was "completely bulls---." The excuses in the interview didn't go over well. "Maybe the macro headwinds & the late candidate swap were always going to be too much to overcome. But her top campaign brass talking about ‘what happened’ for 100 min & not saying anything they would’ve done differently in hindsight is insane," Adam Carlson, a former pollster, posted. He said in another post that he voted for Harris and that the commentary from the aides was frustrating. "Pod Save America" host Tommy Vietor even engaged with a critic who accused them of not learning a "single thing." Vietor and his fellow hosts are all alumni of the Obama administration. Dan Turrentine, host of "The Morning Meeting," said he had great respect for the Harris campaign team, noting they were dealt a difficult hand with the president dropping out of the race in late July. However, he added, "What cost Harris in 2019 is what cost her in 2024 - extreme caution, indecisiveness, fear of offending/making a mistake." "Rather than be bold, clear, nimble and aggressive, she was vanilla, small, hesitant and obfuscating. These facts hover, unspoken over the podcast," he added. CLICK HERE FOR MORE COVERAGE OF MEDIA AND CULTURE CNN's Bakari Sellers, a Harris supporter, said during an interview on the network on Wednesday that the podcast interview was "disappointing at best," panning "their lack of self-awareness, their lack of self-reflection." "It was reminiscent of a Kamala Harris interview: nothing is actually said. No one answers the question. No interview push back," Tricia McLaughlin, a Republican strategist, wrote of the Harris campaign aides' interview. Jack Schlossberg, the grandson of President John F. Kennedy, also shared his thoughts about the podcast, calling it "insulting." Jack Mirkinson, a reporter at The Nation, took issue with the aides' failure to bring up the Israel-Hamas conflict, and said, "the fact that they and their candidate backed a genocide merited not even one thought." Others described the podcast as a "painful listen" and pointed out that there was "zero accountability" from the aides. In the show's interview posted to YouTube, commenters accused the Harris aides of "gaslighting," and largely said the aides just "don't get it." Jon Favreau, another "Pod Save America" co-host, posted on X early on Wednesday defending the interview. "I think people need to decide if they're genuinely interested in finding out what went wrong in 2024 so Dems can win again, or if they're just going to reject any data or information that doesn't confirm all their political beliefs," he wrote. CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP When New York Times reporter Astead Herndon referenced the interview as a "good ad for the importance of independent media," Favreau lashed out, "You ok? Have you not gotten enough credit for breaking the news that Joe Biden is old?" "You’d think you’d have more shame, but I understand this is just like a game of sims for you," Herndon replied on X.

Beginning Wednesday, November 20, the 15 and 30-second trailers will be broadcast between 7-10 p.m across US time zones, delivering a sneak peek at the aviation drama that has already captivated viewers at international film festivals. The trailers, designed to introduce a broader audience to Angel Fleet, feature key moments from the film, blending historical drama with emotional storytelling and its powerful soundtrack. Without revealing too much, these previews highlight the film's heartfelt tribute to aviation crews who have made the ultimate sacrifice throughout history. Viewers will get glimpses of Europe's last airworthy B-17 Flying Fortress, a central visual and symbolic element of the film. Filmmakers Tristan Loraine and Herb Jackson Jr. teamed up on the project to tell a unique story that captures hearts and minds. Following an impressive festival run, Angel Fleet has won awards and been recognized at multiple events, including the Birmingham Film Festival in the UK where it won the Audience Vote Award and the Culver City Film Festival. The team is now setting its sights on broader industry recognition. Recently, the film was officially submitted to the Academy Awards in the highly competitive Live Action Short category, reflecting its high-caliber storytelling and technical achievements. Executive Producer, Herb Jackon Jr, commented: "I believe that the magic of flight really captivates people, and it's clear that our film resonates not just with aviation enthusiasts but with a wider audience as well. The element of experiencing trauma from losing a loved one, especially a respected father figure in the industry, seems to strike a chord with many viewers. Throughout the filmmaking process, I learned that collaboration is absolutely essential. Having talented individuals makes a significant difference - our lead, Darcy Jacobs, truly delivered an outstanding performance, as did her co-star, Millie Lewis. This wonderful experience wouldn't have been possible without the guidance of our director, Tristan Lorraine, and our award-winning cinematographer, Anya Krasnikova." The primetime trailer debuts for Angel Fleet serve as a testament to how independent filmmaking can enter the mainstream and deliver compelling, socially resonant stories to diverse audiences.

Steelers Get Good News on Justin FieldsNews junkies will find much to love in “September 5,” a fictionalized account of ABC’s live coverage of the hostage crisis during the 1972 Munich Olympics . There are spirited debates about reporting with only one source, use of words like “terrorism” and what to do if violence breaks out during a live shot. There are negotiations with rival networks over satellite usage, disguises and fake badges made to get reels of 16mm film in and out of the locked down Olympic village and plenty of confused men (and a few women) trying to keep up with an ever-escalating situation. The film is a moment by moment retelling of how a group of sports broadcasters brought this story to the world in real time, despite the technical limitations and their own inexperience across a confusing 22 hours. Everyone came to the studio that night ready for breaking sports news, scores and pre-packaged interviews. Even that was going to be a test for the man running the control room for the first time. Geoffrey Mason, portrayed by John Magaro , was a 28-year-old coordinating producer. Someone wonders about his experience and is assured that he’s covered minor league baseball games. But in the early hours of Sept. 5, 1972 , eight members of a Palestinian group called Black September broke into the Olympic village and attacked the Israeli delegation killing wrestling coach Moshe Weinberg and weightlifter Yossi Romano. Some escaped, but nine others were taken hostage. While the tragedy of the Munich Olympics has certainly been told many times, writer and director Tim Fehlbaum saw an opportunity in the team behind the live broadcast. And he commits fully to staying in the newsroom, with all of its glorious old technologies, from the walkie-talkies they used to stay in touch and to taking time to show how they had to manually add text to the screens. He and his screenwriter were able to reconstruct the events almost minute-by-minute, which helped shape the screenplay. The players are many in this large ensemble. Peter Sarsgaard , who’s looked right in a newsroom since “Shattered Glass,” gives gravitas to Roone Arledge, then-president of ABC Sports, and Ben Chaplin is operations engineer Marvin Bader. Leonie Benesch is Marianne Gebhardt, a German-speaking interpreter who is the only person there able to understand the language of the country. She might be a bit of a composite who checks off a lot of boxes as both an entrepreneurial woman and a younger German offering perspective and insight into what this moment might mean for the country trying to put on a good front in the aftermath of World War II. An actor (Benjamin Walker) plays broadcaster Peter Jennings, and real archival footage of anchor Jim McKay from that day is used in the film. And while they all rise to the occasion, mistakes are made – including a rather big one at the end, following imperfect secondhand information from the Fuerstenfeldbruck airfield. They don’t call it the first draft of history for nothing, after all, and it may be illuminating for audiences to see how it’s handled. The film looks of its time, but it also feels fairly modern in its sensibilities which makes it always seem more like a re-telling than an in-the-moment experience. This may be to its detriment, yet it’s still an undeniably riveting and compelling watch. The word thrilling doesn’t seem appropriate, however. This is not “Apollo 13” after all. The end is not a happy one. But at time when trust in the media is in crisis, this film is a great humanizer, reminding audiences that the media is far from a monolith, but a group of individuals under immense pressure to get the story right, get the story out and go back and do it again the next day. “September 5,” a Paramount Pictures release in theaters Friday, is rated R by the Motion Picture Association for language. Running time: 94. Three stars out of four.NoneGermany concerned over anti-Muslim attacks after Christmas market ramming
Capital One Financial Corp. stock underperforms Wednesday when compared to competitors
LIVERPOOL, England (AP) — Real Madrid midfielder Eduardo Camavinga was injured and substituted off in the second half of his team's 2-0 loss to Liverpool in the Champions League on Wednesday. The France international pulled up sharply as he chased the ball and fell to ground, holding the back of his left leg after appearing to hurt his hamstring. He was briefly treated by Madrid's medical staff before instructions were sent to the bench to bring on a replacement and Dani Ceballos came on as a substitute in the 57th minute at Anfield. Camavinga was able to walk off the field but limped as he made his way to the locker room. The 22-year-old Camavinga sustained knee injuries last season that ruled him out for long periods of the campaign. The loss left Madrid in danger of being eliminated at the first phase of the new-look Champions League. The defending champion is 24th in the standings, which is the last playoff spot for the round of 16, with the top eight advancing automatically. AP soccer: https://apnews.com/hub/soccer
Not to flex—but here at SELF, we test a lot of products. In order to get the intel we need for our signature awards (like our Healthy Beauty Awards , Sneaker Awards , and Home Fitness Awards ) and in-depth reviews and recommendations, we rack up tons of hours trying the best activewear, beauty products, fitness equipment, pantry staples, and more. Plus, we’re just generally a group of humans who love to shop. Now that the holidays are here, we want to tell you about the stuff living rent-free in our heads that we think would make great gifts for anyone on your list. Our favorite picks include a self-heating mug, a comfy cashmere hoodie, a customizable photo album, and even a funky puzzle. Whether you’re shopping for friends, family, coworkers, or yourself (hey, you deserve a little treat !), you can find something they’ll love—take it from the SELF editors and testers who already do. Our top picks Ember Smart Mug 2 Shark Smoothstyle Bombas Sunday Slipper Therabody Theragun Mini Cozy Earth Short Sleeve & Pant Bamboo Pajama Set For more present picks, check out all of the best gift ideas of 2024 . Ember Smart Mug 2 Ember Amazon This self-heating mug can keep their coffee or tea steaming hot for up to 80 minutes (or all day on its charging base), so they won’t have to keep nuking it in the microwave. SELF’s senior commerce writer says this is one of her favorite presents she’s ever received: “The best gifts can make your everyday life feel a little fancier, and that’s exactly what this did—it’s easy to charge and connect to the app you use to operate it; it has a really nice weight to it; and it keeps my coffee seriously hot, even after I’ve dumped a bunch of almond milk in it,” she says. Reigning Champ Robe Reigning Champ Amazon Reigning Champ As comfy as their favorite hoodie , this robe will make sipping their morning brew a truly indulgent experience. One SELF editor says it’s the definition of luxury: “It’s the perfect weight; it has cuffed sleeves (so no dragging through food or sink water); and it has a hood, which I’ve found truly completes the cozy vibe .” Papier Our Family Annual Large Hardback Photo Book Papier Papier A photo album is always a hit—it’s a sweet memento to have in their home and it’s entertaining to flip through. A SELF editor recommends this one from Papier: “I used its photo book for my wedding album—it’s such a lovely keepsake, and the paper quality is so sturdy,” she says, adding that there are tons of ways to personalize it. “Everything is super high quality and there are so many design options that feel chic, modern, classy, and beautiful.” Manduka’s Eko Yoga Mat Manduka Amazon Zappos Dick's Manduka Don’t underestimate how much a solid yoga mat can improve their practice. SELF’s senior commerce writer has used this Manduka mat for the last year during her daily flows. Its zebra-striped texture makes sure clammy hands won’t slide, and it grips the floor like it’s been super-glued in place. “The greatest gift you can give a yoga lover is the promise that they won’t slip on their own sweat in the middle of a sequence—and with the Eko Mat, those days are blessedly behind me,” she says. Owala FreeSip Owala Amazon REI Owala Dick's Sporting Goods Several SELF staffers roll up to the lunch table carrying this water bottle—it’s a real crowd-pleaser. It keeps H2O icy cold for hours, has a leakproof, lockable lid, and comes in a bunch of funky colorways. But our favorite feature is its combo spout, which has a larger opening for glugging water and a smaller one attached to a straw for sipping. “I’m convinced that once you try the two-in-one spout, you’ll wonder how you ever lived without it,” SELF’s senior commerce editor wrote in her review of the Owala . “I’ve already yapped about it enough to convince a few friends and family to pick up their own (mostly so they’d stop borrowing mine).” Loop Experience Ear Plugs Loop Amazon Loop As SELF’s senior commerce writer puts it, these Loop ear plugs have “saved [her] from being a cranky elder millennial at concerts.” They’re tiny and tech-free, but make a huge difference—they dampen cacophonous background noise while still allowing vocals and instruments to sound crisp. “They’ve helped me enjoy shows that I probably would have found too loud or overwhelming otherwise, and they don’t draw attention to themselves or need to be readjusted a million times in order to work properly,” our writer says. Shark Smoothstyle Shark Ulta Sephora Amazon If they hate doing battle with their blow-dryer, the Shark SmoothStyle will be a game-changer for them. It dries and straightens my long, wavy-curly hair in about 20 minutes. But my favorite feature is the heated combs—which only turn on when the air is off—because they make my hair extra smooth and bouncy. And nothing says gift-worthy like someone asking “where’d you get this thing?” (which is exactly what my mom and friend wondered when they tried mine). Bombas Sunday Slipper Bombas Bombas If they’re constantly walking around the house in socks—or worse, bare feet—these slippers are about to majorly upgrade their life. “I feel sooo fancy and bougie with these on!” SELF’s lifestyle writer says. “They look chic and expensive (they kind of are, but the quality is legit). They come in all sorts of fun colors and are super soft and durable.” Cozy Earth Short Sleeve & Pant Bamboo Pajama Set Cozy Earth I’ve worn these pajamas every single week since getting them over six months ago. That also means they’ve been washed once a week, but they still feel as silky as they did on day one and haven’t pilled at all. I love the combo of a short-sleeve top and long pants, especially because I don’t have to keep rolling up my sleeves while washing my face or making breakfast. Plus, I can wear them in the summer without overheating. Rare Beauty Find Comfort Gentle Exfoliating Body Wash & Hydrating Body Lotion Rare Beauty Sephora Rare Beauty Sephora I tried Rare Beauty’s body lotion for our Healthy Beauty Awards (spoiler alert: It’s a winner), and fell in love with its fresh scent and lightweight, creamy formula. But adding the body wash to my routine really took my self-care to the next level. It has a gel consistency and little exfoliating beads that give my skin a gentle scrub. Plus, it fills my shower with the lotion’s same notes of fresh lemon zest and vetiver. Athleta All About Backpack Athleta Athleta Giving them a sleek bag they can bring to the gym, take on a trip , or use as a work bag ? How thoughtful of you. “It can be tough to find a backpack that doesn’t give middle school, but this one is simple and stylish,” SELF’s senior commerce editor says. “The size is deceiving—it’s pretty small, but I can fit a ton of stuff inside.” It has all of our must-haves, like an internal water bottle sleeve, a padded laptop compartment, a zippered pocket, and a loop for their keys. Lululemon Everywhere Belt Bag 1L Lululemon Lululemon This belt bag first took the internet by storm a few years ago, but it still holds up for several SELF editors. I break it out any time I’m going for a stroll around my neighborhood or a quick grocery run. It fits the essentials: phone, wallet, keys. And its small size is perfect for concerts or other live events with bag restrictions. Brooklinen Washed Linen Core Sheet Set Brooklinen Brooklinen I was skeptical of how comfortable linen sheets could be when my mom gifted me this set last year—but now, I totally get the hype. They’re soft and warm like flannel, but still breathable and lightweight, so I sleep like a baby. Sonos Ace Headphones Sonos Amazon Best Buy If they have a long train commute or live in a loud neighborhood, grab them some noise-canceling Sonos Ace Headphones to protect their peace. “The padded headband and ear cups are the right balance of firm and plush, and the noise cancellation and transparency modes work really well,” one SELF editor says. “I especially love how lightweight they are—I can wear them for hours while I work from home and they never feel too heavy or uncomfortable.” Bonus: They also come with a carrying case, so your giftee can toss them in a bag or suitcase worry-free. Sistine Stretch Good Body Oil Sistine Sistine This Healthy Beauty Award–winning body oil might be the product that gets them to start moisturizing from head to toe. “I’ve never had a good body oil before, and now I don’t know how I lived without one,” our tester says. “It doesn’t absorb super quickly, which I actually like. It leaves you with that freshly hydrated, slippery feeling for a good couple of hours, which is why I’d recommend using it before bed.” And while we know it’s what’s on the inside that counts, the packaging is too gorgeous not to give a shout. Lanolips 12-Hour Overnight Lip Mask Lanolips Ulta Anthropologie Nourishing hyaluronic acid and ceramides are the star ingredients in this Healthy Beauty Award–winning lip balm . “I LOVE LOVE LOVE this!” our tester says. “I work in a hospital and have to wear a mask for many hours, which dries out my lips. After having this on all day, my lips stayed moisturized, thanks to its super thick consistency.” Therabody Theragun Mini Therabody Amazon Walmart Therabody Best Buy Don’t be surprised if you get a call thanking you for gifting them this gem of a device. They can use Therabody’s Home Fitness Award–winning massage gun on tight muscles after a workout or almost any ache. “It's nice and compact, but still so strong and effective on sore spots!” one SELF editor says. “I love that pulling it out to use doesn't feel like a whole to-do—it's really purely self-care. I've also had it for four years, and it's still in perfect condition.” Magic Puzzle Company The Sunny City Jigsaw Puzzle (1000-Piece) Magic Puzzle Company Amazon Target Bring back the fun of opening a holiday gift they can play with immediately by getting them this whimsical jigsaw puzzle . While they make progress fitting together all 1,000 pieces, they’ll have at least 50 Easter eggs to spot as an added challenge. “Once you finish, there’s an added element where you can rearrange the whole image and get an extra set of pieces to build out a surprise ending, which is very cute,” one SELF editor says. Kindle Paperwhite Amazon Amazon Amazon Amazon Even a lengthy novel will be lightweight and portable when they read it on a Kindle Paperwhite . Good news if they’re wary of adding another screen to their life: It’s anti-glare and emits very little blue light, so it’s easy on the eyes and shouldn’t cause headaches. “I went from maybe picking up one book a month to flying through entire novels in a single day,” SELF’s senior commerce editor wrote in her review. “Now, I actually look forward to waiting in long lines or hopping on the subway—any excuse to pull my Kindle out and sneak in another chapter.” Etam Pallie Cashmere Hooded Sweater Etam Etam This cashmere hoodie is equally cozy and sleek, which is why one SELF editor reaches for it over and over again. She loves the loose—but not too oversized—fit, and the way the cuffed wrists and cinched waist give it more structure. “It's one of my absolute favorite pieces to wear snuggling on the couch or out to brunch with my girlfriends,” she says. How We Picked These Products Every single product on this list has been tested by SELF staff or contributors.
