CHICAGO (AP) — When the Chicago Bears threatened to score in the closing minutes of a 6-3 loss to the Seattle Seahawks on Thursday, fans expressed their feelings loud and clear. They weren’t cheering for a touchdown or field goal. They had something else in mind. “Sell the team!” they chanted. With their skid at 10 games, a season that started with playoff hopes can’t end soon enough for the Bears (4-12). They will wrap it up when they visit the rival Green Bay Packers on Jan. 5. “My job is to go out there and win games,” quarterback Caleb Williams said. “And we don’t focus on the outside noise. The fans are going to cheer and maybe boo sometimes. And you can’t react to that. It’s not something that we react to.” Chicago is 14-36 in three seasons under general manager Ryan Poles and has two double-digit losing streaks. The Bears dropped their final 10 in 2022 when they were tanking as part of a franchise-record 14-game skid that stretched into last year. They’ve never lost more than 10 in a row in a single season. The slide was at six games when they fired former coach Matt Eberflus the day after a loss at Detroit on Thanksgiving, following a series of poor late-game decisions. They’re 0-4 under interim coach Thomas Brown, and they’ve been dominated by Green Bay in recent decades. What’s working The defense. A defense that has gone from ranking seventh in yards per game through the first six weeks to 25th did its part against Seattle. The six points allowed were a season-low and the 265 yards the Bears gave up were their second-lowest. “As we know, our defense has a certain standard and we’ve showed it,” cornerback Kyler Gordon said. “So, obviously syncing a little bit. Just getting back on the guys to get back right. It’s just important to know what we can do and just go in there and execute.” What needs help Pass protection. Williams was sacked seven times, bringing his NFL-leading total and individual franchise record to 67. The Bears broke their previous mark of 66 sacks allowed in 2004, when they used four quarterbacks. Their issues on the offensive line are well-documented. And so is Williams’ tendency to hold onto the ball too long, resulting in unnecessary sacks. “There were miscues,” Williams said. “There were stupid sacks that I was taking, losing 10, 14 yards, which is frustrating. But I will say that I will definitely take the heat for this one just because (of) some of the situations that I put us in.” Stock up DE Montez Sweat. The Bears gave up 53 yards rushing on Seattle’s game-opening field-goal drive. But the line performed better after that. Sweat picked up his first sack since Week 12 against Minnesota on the first play of Seattle’s second possession, when he took down Geno Smith for an 8-yard loss. Though he’s only missed one game, Sweat has been slowed by ankle and shin injuries. His 5 1/2 sacks are a big drop from last season, when he had a combined 12 1/2 for Washington and Chicago while becoming the first NFL player to lead two teams in the same season. Stock down Williams. Coming off a promising outing against NFC leader Detroit that followed some shaky outings, Williams had a rough night. The No. 1 overall draft pick completed 16 of 28 passes for 122 yards — not much more than his low of 93 in a Week 1 win over Tennessee — after throwing for 334 yards and two touchdowns against the Lions. The seven sacks for 46 yards both matched his second-highest totals. Injuries The Bears reported no injuries during the game. Key number Winnipeg Jets Game Days On Winnipeg Jets game days, hockey writers Mike McIntyre and Ken Wiebe send news, notes and quotes from the morning skate, as well as injury updates and lineup decisions. Arrives a few hours prior to puck drop. 5 — The Bears once again had trouble sustaining drives, converting just 5 of 15 third downs and punting on seven of their 10 possessions. They tied a season low with 11 first downs and managed 179 yards. Chicago owns the NFL’s second-worst third-down conversion rate at 31.8% and is averaging a league-worst 287.3 yards per game. Next steps The Bears have lost 11 straight against the Packers — the longest streak by either team in the storied rivalry — and 26 of 29 counting the playoffs. They’ve dropped eight in a row at Lambeau Field since a win in 2015. ___ AP NFL: https://apnews.com/hub/NFL Advertisement AdvertisementThe Orlando Magic may not be doing their reputation any good these days. The NBA announced on Saturday that Magic guard Jalen Suggs has been assessed a postgame flopping fine of $2,000 for an incident in Friday’s NBA Cup game against the Brooklyn Nets. Suggs was playing some tight defense on Brooklyn’s Tyrese Martin in the third quarter and flailed dramatically when Martin attempted to clear some space. Here is the video. add suggs to the list of 'underrated flop artists' pic.twitter.com/346UMTTUXH — outbreezy (@outbreezyWC) November 30, 2024 But wait, there’s more! The NBA also announced Saturday that another Magic player, center Goga Bitadze, had also been hit with a $2,000 flopping fine stemming from an incident during Friday’s game against the Nets. Bitadze’s episode occurred at another point in the third quarter when Orlando was on offense. He was running up the floor in transition and got nudged in the paint by Brooklyn’s Ben Simmons. Bitadze then thrashed around and ended up well out of bounds by the baseline in attempt to sell the contact. You can see that video here . The poetic justice was that neither flop attempt worked — Suggs was the one who was called for a foul for his initial jostling of Martin, and no whistle was blown on the Bitadze-Simmons play. The Magic still went on to win by a 123-100 final though. The NBA can go back and retroactively hand out flopping fines upon league review, which is exactly what happened here. Those fines have been a part of the game for many years now, but in-game penalties for flopping also debuted just last season ( which have been given from time to time ).

Ramiro Enrique, Pedro Gallese lead Orlando City past Atlanta United 1-0 for trip to conference finalAfter sifting through the reports over the past few weeks of reports of drones over New Jersey, National Security Council spokesperson John Kirby said Monday the truth is not out there. Foreign policy reporter Laura Rozen quoted Kirby in a briefing Monday saying that the increased use of drones isn't an invasion. "Having closely looked at the tips and collated them as best we can from concerned citizens, we assess that the sightings to date include a combination of lawful commercial drones, hobbyist drones and law enforcement drones, as well as manned fixed-wing aircraft, helicopters and even stars that were mistakenly reported as drones," he said. "We have not identified anything anomalous or any national security or public safety risk over the civilian airspace in New Jersey or other states in the Northeast." ALSO READ: The menstrual police are coming: Inside the GOP's plan for total control over women Later in the briefing, he also asked reporters to stress that there are over a million legal drones in the United States, and thousands of them are flying around at any given time, "legally" and "lawfully." Fox News has helped amp up fears about the devices, with one host calling it a "Pearl Harbor moment." President-elect Donald Trump has indicated he's open to allowing Americans to shoot them down . It is illegal to shoot at drones, but Rep. James Comer (R-KY) also said Monday his constituents will use their "Second Amendment capabilities " and shoot down the machines, which could result in planes being mistakenly fired upon. The Electronic Frontier Foundation reported in June that drones are being used as "first responder programs" across the United States, and departments are begging for more. "With their birds-eye view, drones can observe individuals in previously private and constitutionally protected spaces, like their backyards, roofs, and even through home windows," the EFF said. "And they can capture crowds of people, like protestors and other peaceful gatherers exercising their First Amendment rights. Drones can be equipped with cameras, thermal imaging, microphones, license plate readers , face recognition , mapping technology, cell-site simulators , weapons, and other payloads. Proliferation of these devices enables state surveillance even for routine operations and in response to innocuous calls —situations unrelated to the original concerns of terrorism or violent crime originally used to justify their adoption."
No. 10 Georgia scores nearly at will, destroys UMass
Some tech industry leaders are pushing the incoming Trump administration to increase visas for highly skilled workers from other nations. Related Articles National Politics | Trump threat to immigrant health care tempered by economic hopes National Politics | In states that ban abortion, social safety net programs often fail families National Politics | Court rules Georgia lawmakers can subpoena Fani Willis for information related to her Trump case National Politics | New 2025 laws hit hot topics from AI in movies to rapid-fire guns National Politics | Trump has pressed for voting changes. GOP majorities in Congress will try to make that happen The heart of the argument is, for America to remain competitive, the country needs to expand the number of skilled visas it gives out. The previous Trump administration did not increase the skilled visa program, instead clamping down on visas for students and educated workers, increasing denial rates. Not everyone in corporate America thinks the skilled worker program is great. Former workers at IT company Cognizant recently won a federal class-action lawsuit that said the company favored Indian employees over Americans from 2013 to 2022. A Bloomberg investigation found Cognizant, and other similar outsourcing companies, mainly used its skilled work visas for lower-level positions. Workers alleged Cognizant preferred Indian workers because they could be paid less and were more willing to accept inconvenient or less-favorable assignments. Question: Should the U.S. increase immigration levels for highly skilled workers? Caroline Freund, UC San Diego School of Global Policy and Strategy YES: Innovation is our superpower and it relies on people. Sourcing talent from 8 billion people in the world instead of 330 million here makes sense. Nearly half our Fortune 500 companies were founded by immigrants or their children. Growing them also relies on expanding our skilled workforce. The cap on skilled-worker visas has hardly changed since the computer age started. With AI on the horizon, attracting and building talent is more important than ever. Kelly Cunningham, San Diego Institute for Economic Research YES: After years of openly allowing millions of undocumented entrants into the country, why is there controversy over legally increasing somewhat the number having desirable skills? Undocumented immigration significantly impacts lower skill level jobs and wages competing with domestic workers at every skill level. Why should special cases be made against those having higher skills? Could they just not walk across the border anyway, why make it more inconvenient to those with desirable skills? James Hamilton, UC San Diego YES: Knowledge and technology are key drivers of the U.S. economy. Students come from all over the world to learn at U.S. universities, and their spending contributed $50 billion to U.S. exports last year. Technological advantage is what keeps us ahead of the rest of the world. Highly skilled immigrants contribute much more in taxes than they receive in public benefits. The skills immigrants bring to America can make us all better off. Norm Miller, University of San Diego YES: According to Forbes, the majority of billion-dollar startups were founded by foreigners. I’ve interviewed dozens of data analysts and programmers from Berkeley, UCSD, USD and a few other schools and 75% of them are foreign. There simply are not enough American graduates to fill the AI and data mining related jobs now exploding in the U.S. If we wish to remain a competitive economy, we need highly skilled and bright immigrants to come here and stay. David Ely, San Diego State University YES: Being able to employ highly skilled workers from a larger pool of candidates would strengthen the competitiveness of U.S. companies by increasing their capacity to perform research and innovate. This would boost the country’s economic output. Skilled workers from other nations that cannot remain in the U.S. will find jobs working for foreign rivals. The demand for H-1B visas far exceeds the current cap of 85,000, demonstrating a need to modify this program. Phil Blair, Manpower YES: Every country needs skilled workers, at all levels, to grow its economy. We should take advantage of the opportunity these workers provide our employers who need these skills. It should be blended into our immigration policies allowing for both short and long term visas. Gary London, London Moeder Advisors YES: San Diego is a premiere example of how highly skilled workers from around the globe enrich a community and its regional economy. Of course Visa levels need to be increased. But let’s go further. Tie visas and immigration with a provision that those who are admitted and educated at a U.S. university be incentivized, or even required, to be employed in the U.S. in exchange for their admittance. Bob Rauch, R.A. Rauch & Associates NO: While attracting high-skilled immigrants can fill critical gaps in sectors like technology, health care and advanced manufacturing, increasing high-skilled immigration could displace American workers and drive down wages in certain industries. There are already many qualified American workers available for some of these jobs. We should balance the need for specialized skills with the impact on the domestic workforce. I believe we can begin to increase the number of visas after a careful review of abuse. Austin Neudecker, Weave Growth YES: We should expand skilled visas to drive innovation and economic growth. Individuals who perform high-skilled work in labor-restricted industries or graduate from respected colleges with relevant degrees should be prioritized for naturalization. We depend on immigration for GDP growth, tax revenue, research, and so much more. Despite the abhorrent rhetoric and curtailing of visas in the first term, I hope the incoming administration can be persuaded to enact positive changes to a clearly flawed system. Chris Van Gorder, Scripps Health YES: But it should be based upon need, not politics. There are several industries that have or could have skilled workforce shortages, especially if the next administration tightens immigration as promised and expected. Over the years, there have been nursing shortages that have been met partially by trained and skilled nurses from other countries. The physician shortage is expected to get worse in the years to come. So, this visa program may very well be needed. Jamie Moraga, Franklin Revere NO: While skilled immigration could boost our economy and competitiveness, the U.S. should prioritize developing our domestic workforce. Hiring foreign nationals in sensitive industries or government-related work, especially in advanced technology or defense, raises security concerns. A balanced approach could involve targeted increases in non-sensitive high-demand fields coupled with investment in domestic STEM education and training programs. This could address immediate needs while strengthening the long-term STEM capabilities of the American workforce.

Jeremy Clarkson backpedals on previous claim he bought farm for tax reasonsThe Delhi High Court has raised serious concerns about the state of civic administration in the capital, criticizing authorities for failing to address the city's urgent infrastructure needs. The court described the civic administration as having "collapsed" and pointed out that the political class is more focused on "selling slogans" than addressing the city's expanding infrastructure problems. The bench, consisting of Chief Justice Manmohan and Justice Manmeet PS Arora, made these observations while hearing a case regarding the eviction of residents from Madrasi Camp, a slum area in the Old Barapullah Bridge locality. The Infrastructure Crisis A central concern brought up by the bench was the gaps between the city’s population and its infrastructure. With a population surpassing 3.3 crore, Delhi's infrastructure is struggling to keep pace with its growth. The court questioned whether the city's infrastructure could accommodate this vast population and stressed the need for major investments in areas like housing, transport, and sanitation. The judges pointed out that the current administration has failed to provide enough infrastructure which is necessary for a city of Delhi’s size and scale. "Can the infrastructure of Delhi accommodate 3.3 crore people?" the court asked. Without proper development plans or a clear growth strategy, the quality of life for Delhi’s residents continues to worsen. In addition to the general lack of infrastructure investment, the court pointed out that Delhi's governance has been marked by frequent crises, including droughts, floods, and pollution. It mentioned how the city struggled this year with severe droughts, followed by floods and extreme air pollution, all of which have put even more pressure on the already weak infrastructure. The Diversion of Focus Another significant point raised by the Delhi High Court was the political establishment's emphasis on short-term solutions like freebies instead of addressing the city's long-term infrastructure needs. The bench criticized politicians for focusing on offering free services, such as water and electricity, rather than prioritizing the city's infrastructure development. "Freebies will not build infrastructure," the bench remarked, emphasizing that while such policies may win votes, they do nothing to solve the city's infrastructure issues. According to the court, politicians are more focused on "selling slogans" than on doing the hard work required to solve the city’s challenges. The Burden on the Judiciary The Delhi High Court also expressed concern about the increasing burden placed on the judiciary due to the failure of the civic administration. The bench noted that the inefficiency of the administrative bodies had resulted in the courts becoming involved in issues that should have been handled by the government. "We have an inefficient system where organizations are working in silos. The entire load is now on the judiciary. This is not our job," the judges remarked. This comment underscores the extent to which the courts have been forced to intervene in matters like unauthorized constructions, drainage issues, and the eviction of residents in slum areas—tasks that should ideally fall under the purview of local authorities. The court criticized the Delhi government for failing to act on time and allowing the situation to deteriorate to the point where judicial intervention is necessary. In this case, the court was hearing the plea of residents from Madrasi Camp, who were facing eviction without proper rehabilitation plans in place. The judges pointed out that delays in resolving such matters were a direct consequence of the government’s inefficiency. Case of Madrasi Camp Eviction The immediate case being heard by the Delhi High Court concerns the eviction of residents from Madrasi Camp, located near the Old Barapullah Bridge. In September, the Delhi government issued eviction notices, asking the residents to vacate the area for the construction of a new flyover. However, the residents, who have lived in the area for more than 50 years, have sought an alternative rehabilitation site, claiming that they cannot be displaced without proper compensation or relocation. The court expressed its dissatisfaction with the delay in the rehabilitation process. While advising the residents to vacate the area and seek alternative accommodations, the court also emphasized that the authorities had failed to meet deadlines set for the rehabilitation process. The deadline for conducting a survey of eligible residents for rehabilitation was set for November 20, but the authorities failed to meet this timeline. The bench warned that if the authorities did not comply with deadlines, strict action would be taken. "You can’t take us for a ride," the court stated, expressing frustration over the repeated breaches of timelines. The judges made it clear that no further extensions would be granted and that failure to comply would lead to serious consequences. Consequences for Delayed Action The court’s frustration was further evident as it warned that the failure of the authorities to act promptly would result in consequences. The judges noted that the current state of affairs in Delhi had led to a "collapsed" civic administration, and the political class had failed to meet its responsibilities. If the authorities continue to miss deadlines and neglect their duties, the court made it clear that it would take further steps to hold them accountable. The court also referenced Section 56(J) of the Central Civil Services (CCS) Pension Rules, 1972, which allows for the premature retirement of incompetent government officials. The bench warned that if the authorities continued to be inefficient, the court would not hesitate to invoke this rule. The consequences of inaction are severe, as delays in fixing infrastructure and rehabilitation problems worsen living conditions for marginalized communities. For residents like those in Madrasi Camp, the lack of proper planning and timely action from authorities makes them vulnerable to displacement without sufficient support or relocation options. Delhi High Court's comments highlight a growing crisis in the city's administration. The court expressed frustration with the political class focusing on short-term policies and the inefficiency of civic administration. The city is in an urgent need for long-term solutions to infrastructural problems. As the city faces rapid growth, it is crucial for the government and political leaders to committedly focus on sustainable development and infrastructure investment. Without such a shift, Delhi may continue to face escalating crises that impact its residents’ quality of life and long-term viability. The court's intervention serves as a critical reminder to the authorities to take responsibility for the city's future, addressing its challenges with urgency, planning, and a commitment to the well-being of all residents.

Latest In North America Fetching latest articles Most Viewed In WorldGRAND FORKS — Robert Morris coach Derek Schooley isn't particularly excited to see Carter Wilkie again this weekend. "I had a couple of goals and good games against them," said Wilkie, a UND senior center. ADVERTISEMENT That's an understatement. Wilkie, a junior at RIT last season, played six games against the Colonials. He scored six goals and tallied 12 points. That means 37.5 percent of his goals and 29.3 percent of his points last season came against Robert Morris. Wilkie, who transferred to UND in the offseason for his final year of college eligibility, will get one more shot at the Colonials. UND and Robert Morris will play in a two-game nonconference series at 7:07 p.m. Friday and 6:07 p.m. Saturday in Ralph Engelstad Arena. "They're a hard-working team," Wilkie said. "They definitely know how to play simple and fast. They move the puck north really well. Their team has obviously had a lot of changeover. They had a lot of fifth years (last year). I don't know exactly what they have brought in this year, but they're pretty well-coached and I'm expecting a hard match." Wilkie has been a consistent two-way player for UND but his offense has dried up recently. He enters this weekend on a six-game point drought and a nine-game goal drought. His line with Mac Swanson and Ben Strinden had strong analytics last weekend against the University of Denver. ADVERTISEMENT "I just want to see us play a dominant game and a full 60 minutes," Wilkie said. "We've had a lot of consistent stretches, it's just losing it after a couple moments. It's costing us goals. I really want to see 60 minutes out of our group and piece together two solid games, get back on the same page and get our season rolling, especially in the wins column." Wilkie said he expects to get Robert Morris' best. "Playing in Atlantic Hockey and coming to games like this and in an atmosphere like The Ralph, they're obviously going to be excited and tuned in to play their best game," Wilkie said. "We've got to be ready." Wilkie said a key is playing simple against the Colonials and not trying to be too fancy. "Hopefully, I can keep the lasting memory of them not wanting to see me anymore," Wilkie said. Injured players progressing UND is slowly progressing on the injury front. Defenseman Tanner Komzak is expected to be available this weekend. ADVERTISEMENT Komzak was cleared for practice Thursday last week. He dressed for Saturday's series finale but didn't play any shifts. "That was more about if something went wrong or if someone got hurt, he could be put into play," UND coach Brad Berry said. "It was probably unfair to him to play him, because he only had one practice. He's been out two or three weeks. "(Now), he's had a full week of practice." Berry said freshman defenseman Andrew Strathmann, who was injured Nov. 1 at Cornell, is "way ahead of expected." Strathmann has returned to practice. "When he got diagnosed coming out of Cornell, it looked like it was maybe longterm with a surgery included," Berry said. "The surgery didn't take place. He's really responded from therapy. He's in some heavy contact drills, some we're keeping him out of." Strathmann won't play against Robert Morris, but he could play before Christmas break. UND plays a home-and-home with Bemidji State next week, then travels to Miami before hosting St. Cloud State. ADVERTISEMENT Forward Cody Croal practiced for the first time Thursday. He did not take contact. Defenseman Bennett Zmolek still is not practicing. UND expects to know more on his timeline next week. He's currently listed as "out indefinitely." Goalie Kaleb Johnson also is "out indefinitely." Center Cameron Berg also will miss this weekend's series. The Fighting Hawks have yet to win this season without Berg in the lineup (5-2 with him, 0-4 without him). Will Dane Montgomery stay on defense? Junior forward Dane Montgomery has been moved to defense to fill in for the injured blue liners. He had points in his first four full games on defense. Once UND starts to regain health on the blue line, will UND leave him there? "It's a great question," Berry said. "As of now, yes. He's done a lot to help out or D-corps back there, not only defensively but offensively. Once we get guys back, we'll make that decision. That depends what our forward group looks like here, too. ADVERTISEMENT "As of now, he will be (on defense). At the end of the day, we'll keep looking forward. But I'll tell you what — what a positive, positive impact he's had on our group." Robert Morris at No. 12 UND When: 7:07 p.m. Friday, 6:07 p.m. Saturday. Where: Ralph Engelstad Arena. TV: Midco Sports (GF Ch. 27/622 HD). Radio: The Fox (96.1 FM). Stream: NCHChockey.com.
Ramiro Enrique, Pedro Gallese lead Orlando City past Atlanta United 1-0 for trip to conference finalAn online debate over foreign workers in tech shows tensions in Trump's political coalitionGuwahati, Nov 30 (PTI) Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma on Saturday launched the Assam State Commission for the Right to Public Services, emphasising its role in ensuring greater accountability in the provision of public services. Speaking on the occasion, Sarma highlighted the transformative role of technology in advancing accountability and said, “Good governance cannot be achieved if the citizens remain unaware of their rights.” The CM reiterated that it is the government’s primary duty to ensure that public services are delivered in an efficient and timely manner, noting, “The public stands to gain from numerous services, and it is the government’s responsibility to ensure they are provided effectively.” He pointed out that through the Seva Setu platform, the state government has already recognised 725 subjects as citizen rights, covering 64 government departments and three autonomous councils under the Sixth Schedule. “The Seva Setu portal provides a clear service delivery timeline, specifying the maximum time frame within which each service should be provided,” Sarma said. He further mentioned that since the platform’s launch, over 1.56 crore applications have been received, with more than 90 per cent successfully resolved. “The Right to Public Service Act is now enforced across 34 states, ensuring that citizens’ rights are safeguarded,” he added. He announced the appointment of retired IPS officer Sujoy Lal Thaosen as the chief commissioner of the commission, with Ranjan Kumar Chakraborty and Bimal C. Oswal appointed as members. “If public is properly empowered with their rights and services are delivered efficiently, Assam can set a benchmark for exemplary governance,” Sarma asserted. He urged officials and civil servants to be proactive in implementing these reforms and stressed the need to raise public awareness about the rights available through the Assam State Commission for the Right to Public Services. The Chief Minister also launched the commission’s handbook and website, reaffirming the government’s commitment to citizen-centric governance, driven by the principle of “Citizen First.” PTI DG DG MNB This report is auto-generated from PTI news service.
