Barry Keoghan has seemingly responded to rumours that he cheated on Sabrina Carpenter with TikTok star Breckie Hill . The news of pop star Sabrina, 25, and actor Barry, 32, "taking a break" was only announced on December 4, but keyboard warriors claimed that Barry had been unfaithful after he was spotted with Breckie in a hotel in Hollywood . Barry took to Twitter today to clear his name, and stand against the "lies and hatred" spread about him from trolls on social media. "I can only sit and take so much. My name has been dragged across the internet in ways I usually don't respond too. I have to respond now because it's gettin to a place where there are too many lines being crossed," he wrote. "I deactivated my account because I can no longer let this stuff distract from my family and my work. The messages I have received no person should ever have to read them. Absolute lies, hatred, disgusting commentary about my appearance, character, how I am as a parent and every other inhumane thing you can imagine."

Talking about how I was a heroine baby and how I grew up and dragging my dear mother into it also. Knocking on my grannies door. Sitting outside my baby boys house intimidating them. That's crossing a line. "Each and every day I work harder to push myself on every level to be the healthiest and strongest person for that boy. I want to provide opportunities for him to learn, fail and grow. I want him to be able to look up to his daddy, to have full trust in me and know I will have his back no matter what." Barry concluded: "I need you to remember he has to read ALL of this about his father when he is older. Please be respectful to all. Thank u x" The Irish star was talking about his son, two-year-old Brando, whom he shares with his ex-girlfriend Alyson Kierans , who works as a dentist in London. Barry recently lashed out at fans for suggesting he was snubbing his son in favour of the Hollywood life, and leaving all parenting to London dentist Alyson. While speaking on Louis Theroux's podcast last month, Barry opened up about growing up in foster care and his mother's death from a drug addiction , and took umbrage with accusations he was a “deadbeat dad.” "If I didn’t have tough skin or the strength to have, I wouldn’t be sitting here. Of course, (my childhood is) going to affect me being a father when I had no blueprint to take from. People just read that (as) laziness and go, ‘Oh, that’s no excuse to be an absent father’. I’m not an absent father,” he assured Louis. When Barry and Sabrina's split was announced, an insider old People : "They are both young and career-focused, so they've decided to take a break." The insider added that the split was amicable, and suggested that the couple wasn't over for good. * Follow Mirror Celebs on Snapchat , Instagram , Twitter , Facebook , YouTube and Threads Join the Irish Mirror’s breaking news service on WhatsApp. Click this link to receive breaking news and the latest headlines direct to your phone.

Intech Investment Management LLC Takes $797,000 Position in McGrath RentCorp (NASDAQ:MGRC)New chair appointed at Hampshire Hospitals NHS Foundation TrustRichmond may have shelved Dustin Martin’s No.4 for the time being, but the Sydney Swans have opted to refill the No.23 made famous by superstar Lance Franklin with a draftee. Ned Bowman, who was drafted from Norwood in South Australia as Sydney’s second pick, will wear the number Franklin wore with distinction in 354 games, including 172 for the Sydney Swans, after being traded to the Harbour City at the end of the 2013 season from Hawthorn. Franklin retired with little fanfare at the end of 2023, finishing with a mind-boggling 1066 goals. His number 23 was left vacant for the 2024 season but will be on the field again in 2025. Clubs are increasingly making efforts to hand famous jumper numbers to top draftees, with West Coast giving No.9, worn with distinction by club greats Ben Cousins and then Nic Naitanui, to No.1 draft pick Harley Reid in 2024. Sydney officials haven’t shied away from lofty ambitions for all their draftees either. The club’s third pick in the draft, Riley Bice, will wear No.26, which was recently vacated by champion Swan Luke Parker, who moved to North Melbourne. Parker was a former club co-captain, a 2012 premiership player, multiple best-and-fairest winner and played 293 games in the guernsey. “We think long and hard about the allocation of jumper numbers and we feel these new players will wear them with pride,” Swans football boss Leon Cameron said. “Obviously, jumper numbers 20, 23 and 26 have recently been worn by Sydney Swans champions, so we didn’t hand these out lightly, but we believe these kids will represent themselves well. “I look forward to seeing all the new players run out in the red and white next year, hoping they will make these jumpers their own.” Samantha Rogers Chris Robinson The Swans are entering a new phase after a horror grand final loss to the Brisbane Lions, with Dean Cox replacing long-term coach John Longmire, who stood down last month after 15 seasons in charge.
A former South Korean defense minister was formally arrested Wednesday over his alleged collusion with President Yoon Suk Yeol and others in imposing martial law last week, as authorities investigate whether their acts amount to rebellion. Martial law, the first in more than 40 years, lasted only about six hours but has triggered a domestic firestorm and large street protests. Yoon and his associates face criminal investigations and impeachment attempts. The Justice Ministry has banned Yoon and eight others from leaving the country as authorities see them as key suspects in the martial law case. It’s the first time that a sitting president in South Korea has received a travel ban. The Seoul Central District Court said it approved an arrest warrant for former Defense Minister Kim Yong Hyun on charges of rebellion and abuse of power. Kim has been detained since Sunday. Prosecutors have up to 20 days to determine whether to indict him. A conviction on the charge of rebellion carries a maximum death sentence. Kim became the first person arrested over the case. He has been accused of recommending martial law to Yoon and sending troops to the National Assembly to block lawmakers from voting on it. Enough lawmakers eventually managed to enter a parliament chamber and unanimously rejected Yoon’s decree, forcing the Cabinet to lift it before daybreak on Dec. 4. Kim said in a statement Tuesday that he “deeply apologizes for causing significant anxiety and inconvenience.” He said all responsibility for the imposition of martial law rests solely with him and pleaded for leniency for soldiers deployed to enforce it, saying they were only following his order. Prosecutors reportedly accuse Kim of playing a key role in a rebellion and committing abuse of power by staging a riot to disrupt the constitution in collaboration with Yoon and other military and police officers. Prosecutors' offices in Seoul couldn't immediately confirm the reports. The opposition-controlled parliament passed a bill Tuesday to appoint an independent special counsel to investigate Yoon and other top military officials over the martial law introduction. The main opposition Democratic Party had advocated for a special counsel investigation, arguing that public prosecutors cannot be trusted to conduct a thorough investigation of Yoon, a former prosecutor-general. During a parliamentary hearing Tuesday, Kwak Jong-keun, commander of the Army Special Warfare Command whose troops were sent to parliament, testified that he received direct instructions from Kim Yong Hyun to obstruct lawmakers from entering the National Assembly’s main chamber. Kwak said the purpose of Kim’s instructions was to prevent the 300-member parliament from gathering the 150 votes necessary to overturn Yoon’s martial law order. Kwak said Yoon later called him directly and asked for the troops to “quickly destroy the door and drag out the lawmakers who are inside.” Kwak said he discussed Yoon’s order with the commander at the scene and that they concluded there was nothing that could be done, ruling out the possibility of threatening the lawmakers by shooting blanks or cutting off electricity. At the same hearing, senior officer Kim Dae-woo of the military’s counterintelligence agency said his commander, Yeo In-hyung, asked him if an army bunker in Seoul had space to detain politicians and other figures after martial law was imposed. Yeo is considered a close associate of Kim Yong Hyun. Last week, Hong Jang-won, a deputy director of the country's spy agency, said Yoon ordered him to help Yeo’s command to detain some of his political rivals but he ignored the president’s order. Kwak and Yeo are among those who face opposition-raised rebellion charges along with Yoon and Kim, and the Defense Ministry suspended them last week. Opposition parties and many experts say the martial law decree was unconstitutional. They say a president is by law allowed to declare martial law only during “wartime, war-like situations or other comparable national emergency states” and South Korea wasn’t in such a situation. They argue that deploying troops to seal the National Assembly to suspend its political activities amounted to rebellion because the South Korean Constitution doesn’t allow a president to use the military to suspend parliament in any situation. In his martial law announcement, the conservative Yoon stressed a need to rebuild the country by eliminating “shameless North Korea followers and anti-state forces,” a reference to his liberal rivals who control parliament. Yoon avoided impeachment on Saturday after most governing party lawmakers boycotted a floor vote in the National Assembly. The Democratic Party said it would prepare for a new vote on Yoon's impeachment on Saturday. The party on Tuesday submitted motions to impeach Yoon’s police chief and justice minister as well. It pushed to impeach Kim Yong Hyun and the safety minister, but they resigned before parliament took a vote. If Yoon is impeached, his presidential powers would be suspended until the Constitutional Court decides whether to restore his powers or remove him from office. If it voted for removal, a new presidential election would be required.Kuni Tyessi in Abuja The federal government has launched the Gas Emission project in order to reduce the impact of the emission of greenhouse gases on climate change. Speaking at the inception workshop in Abuja with the theme, ‘Abating Greenhouse Gas Emissions from Obsolete Refrigeration and Air conditioning Equipment in Ghana and Nigeria (AGORA)’ National Ozone Officer, Federal Ministry of Environment, Mr. Idris Abdullahi, said the project is aimed at creating a future where energy-efficiency and climate-friendly cooling and refrigeration technologies will be of standard. According to him, the project is also an avenue to promote energy-efficient and low global warming potential (GWP) technologies by strengthening policies that facilitate the transition to reduce the emission of greenhouse gases. Abdullahi who disclosed that the project is at its initial stage and will last up to three years said, “The project presents another opportunity to further advance the promotion of Energy Efficient and Low GWP technologies in the RAC sector by establishing and strengthening policies, regulations and partnerships.” He recalled that Nigeria is a party to the Montreal Protocol on Substances that deplete the Ozone Layer and has ratified all its amendments, the recent being the Kigali amendment on phase-down of Hydrofluorocarbons, which are greenhouse gases used mainly as cooling agents in the refrigeration and air conditioning sector. He said, “Over the past three decades, Nigeria has been implementing the Protocol’s Ozone Depleting Substances Phase out Programme in the relevant sectors, such as Refrigeration, Air Conditioning, and Foam, among others.” The representative of the Energy Commission of Nigeria, Dr. Shehu Mustafa, while highlighting the objective of the project, said it focuses on accelerating the transition to energy-efficient and climate-friendly refrigerators and air conditioners RAC in Nigeria and Ghana. He emphasised that the commission is aimed at enhancing energy efficiency and promoting climate-friendly cooling solutions, thereby contributing significantly to Nigeria’s climate goals and sustainable energy access. “The project will help to shape the future of air conditioning and future of air conditioning and refrigerating standards in Nigeria, driving advancements in energy efficiency, reducing greenhouse gas emissions, and sustainable economic growth,” he said. Also speaking, the UNDP Regional Technical Advisor for Africa, Mr. Joel Darkwah, said that the project will support sustainable cooling solutions as well as ensure a more circular economy in Nigeria. “The country has been implementing the Montreal Protocol for years, hand in hand with international agencies such as UNDP, UNIDO, UNEP or the Italian Government – building technical capacity, strengthening its enforcement mechanisms, and bringing new and high-performing technologies to the country”. The workshop was organised by the Federal Ministry of Environment through the National Ozone Office, in collaboration with the Energy Commission of Nigeria, United Nations Environment Programme and the United for Efficiency (UNEP-U4E), United Nations Development Programme (UNDP).Editor’s Note: Get 5 Good Things in your inbox each week by subscribing to 5 Things right here . I hope you had a lovely Thanksgiving, dear readers! For me, the holiday doesn’t end until all the pie has been eaten, and I’m still nibbling on apple pie for breakfast. Once I’ve emerged from my post-breakfast sugar coma, though, I head straight to the online shops and get to gifting. It’s tremendously satisfying to pick out a gift for someone based on a passing comment they made earlier in the year — it shows them that you’re listening and that you care. But any act of love, free or otherwise, can land with the same joy as unwrapping a present. You can step in and offer to pet-sit or deliver a meal when you know a friend is in a pinch. Hug them if they’re a hugger. Ask how they’re doing and just listen. Or simply remind someone that they’re wonderful and that you’re grateful to have them in your life, in words as plain. Here are all the good things that happened this week. 1. A Thanksgiving for the ages — and the masses Many North Carolinians who were displaced by Hurricane Helene earlier this year are still recovering from the devastating storm. David Burke wanted to cook Thanksgiving dinner for as many of them as he could. Burke, who lives a few hours from the towns impacted by the hurricane, planned to put together about 1,000 Thanksgiving meal kits. When his neighbors caught wind of his idea, 1,000 kits became 5,000 Thanksgiving dinners. Thus began Operation Thanksgiving Blessings , a community effort led by North Carolinians helping fellow residents of their state whose lives were upended by the September storm. Their efforts don’t stop with turkey: Since Saturday, the team has been on the ground in Newland, one of the towns that faced the most severe storm damage, delivering necessities like warm winter clothes, toiletries and goodies for kids. They cooked through the night on Wednesday to make sure they’d have enough dinner for every hungry resident. And dinner looked delish : Hundreds of turkeys and North Carolina classics like Brunswick stew were on the menu. 2. A slobbery reunion for a man and his dog Here’s a gorgeous reminder that dogs are perfect. Military dog Yyacob was the devoted companion of US Army Staff Sgt. Payton May for nine difficult months overseas in Iraq in 2021. May, a K-9 handler, shared a twin bed with Yyacob and spent every second of his mission with the Belgian Malinois. But when May was reassigned to a base in Texas, and Yyacob was sent to a fort in New York, the interspecies besties were permanently separated. It was hard on them both: May missed his constant companion and Yyacob’s separation anxiety became so acute that he stopped working. That’s when May started petitioning the military to let his favorite dog retire. The good news came last month, and earlier this week, the newly retired Yyacob returned to May’s side. Their long-awaited reunion was just as May had dreamed it — Yyacob recognized his former handler immediately and tackled him with a hug. Yyacob will spend the rest of his days in a bed fit for a king ... and big enough for one, too! 3. The nicest (and baldest) place on the internet Social media is often a hellscape, but there’s a rare place on the internet where people are kind, intentions are pure and heads are hairless: Bald Reddit. The r/bald community is made up of more than 143,000 members in every phase of hair loss, from those still weighing whether to pick up a razor to veterans who’ve been waxing their domes for decades. The interactions on r/bald are shockingly supportive: On the most-liked post in the community’s 13-year history, of one newly bald man’s before-and-after photos, the comments are uniformly delightful: “Bro you look utterly reborn,” one user wrote. There are no stupid questions on r/bald where members receive and dispense tips on moisturizing freshly shaven heads and pairing facial hair with their new hair(less) style. Occasionally, a man with a full head of hair finds his way into the group and is gently reminded by members that no, he is not balding. (It’s a tenet of Bald Reddit to “treat the hair-headed ones with kindness, too.”) If only every internet subgroup treated its members with the compassion of Bald Reddit. 4. A photographer finds the beauty in everyone Posing for photos isn’t always comfortable but sometimes it takes a stranger’s camera to help you see the beauty in yourself. That’s the aim of Ryan Daniel, a photographer in Portland, Oregon, who approaches folks on the street to snap their photos and hear their stories . The results are casually spellbinding: In just a few clicks, Daniel captures the essence of his subjects and makes them feel important. And they are! Daniel has met dozens of colorful characters, including Daria Eliuk, pictured center in the image above, a playful model with the style of a 40s Hollywood star who was immediately at ease in front of Daniel’s camera. Meeting willing, fascinating subjects energizes Daniel and brings him closer to his Portland neighbors, some of whom he’s connected to in unexpected ways: Daniel grew up listening to Eliuk, a former radio host, before he took her photo. 5. A six-story rooster hotel struts into the spotlight Nothing much to see here; just the Guinness World Record holder for the largest building shaped like a chicken (which begs the question, are there several towering chicken-shaped buildings?). This 114-foot-tall, six-story chicken structure is also a hotel, so if you appreciate poultry and don’t mind sleeping in a windowless room, consider checking (“chick-ing”?) in. The avian-themed hotel, nicknamed Cano’s Chicken, stands on the island of Negros Occidental in the Philippines and stands as a monument to the “calm yet commanding creatures,” hotelier Ricardo Cano Gwapo Tan told CNN. Though it’s a trek to get to the island, a stay is a steal at $80 a night. The proud rooster shares a lot with massive statues of King Kong and a herd of dinosaurs, but he still stands the tallest. It’s a bizarre building, but Tan did tell CNN that he wanted to leave a “big legacy in this mortal world.” Heroes among us We’re nearing the end of the voting period for the 2024 CNN Hero of the Year! This week, let’s revisit the story of Stephen Knight, who’s taking good care of pets whose owners are recovering in rehab . Knight, who’s in recovery himself, has operated the nonprofit Dogs Matter for nearly a decade, taking in more than 1,200 dogs while their owners are in rehab, but he started with a teeny little pup named Jayde. Her owner, who’d recently relapsed, asked Knight to mind Jayde while she reentered recovery. It was an easy yes, and he’s been finding healthy temporary homes for dogs ever since. His work extends to people, too: Dog owners are required to stay in touch with the organization –– they receive regular photos and updates about their pooch while they’re away –– and stick to a 12-month recovery plan, so that when their treatment ends, they know how to keep themselves and their pets healthy. Voting for the 2024 CNN Hero of the Year ends on Tuesday –– you can vote 10 times a day until then, for Knight or his worthy fellow nominees. Click here to cast your vote !

Yari Pledges Source Of Livelihood For Zamfara YouthsAdvertisement Buying a home in America today is no walk in the park. Buyers have higher mortgage rates and larger down payments. Nine charts capture how homebuying has become a larger challenge over the years. Feel like buying a home is tougher than ever? You're not the only one. Homebuyers are older than ever , make more money, and are less likely to have young children at home, based on historical data on homebuyers from the National Association of Realtors, or NAR. Related Video Millions of homes could flood the US housing market thanks to boomers These trends have largely resulted from declining housing affordability over the past several decades, Brandi Snowden, NAR's director of member and consumer survey research, told Business Insider. "We're seeing that affordability is becoming increasingly difficult, with higher incomes needed to enter the market," Snowden said. "Buyers are also facing limited inventory, so they often need to search longer to find the right home." Here are nine charts that show how the state of US homeownership has changed over the last several decades. Advertisement Data from the Census Bureau and the Department of Housing and Urban Development showed the median sales price of new houses in the US surged during the pandemic, reaching a peak of $442,600 in the fourth quarter of 2022. Rising prices have made it more difficult for Americans, especially first-time homebuyers, to break into homeownership, as real median household income growth hasn't kept up . "We've seen that first-time homebuyers have needed to be wealthier in order to be successful homebuyers, especially with rising home prices and interest rates," Snowden said. Advertisement The average 30-year fixed-rate mortgage has generally been rising this fall. It was 6.84% as of the week ending November 21. While that's lower than a year ago and below the recent nearly 8% peak in October 2023, it's still a relatively high rate. A higher rate plus more expensive homes leads to bigger monthly mortgage payments. Advertisement "A challenge for first-time homebuyers is higher mortgage rates, especially over the last year," Snowden said. "It could be a factor in their delaying a home purchase." The typical down payment homebuyers put down has also been generally rising since the Great Recession. The median down payment was 8% in 2009 and 2010. In 2024, though, it's typical for a homebuyer to make an 18% down payment. Advertisement Down payments of this size are not unprecedented: The median hit 20% in 1989 and 18% in 2001. "We see that a large share of homebuyers, especially first-time buyers, rely on gifts or loans from family and friends," Snowden said. "They may also be tapping into stocks, bonds, or even their 401(k) for their down payment." Snowden said that homebuyers may opt for a larger down payment that can help offset the mortgage interest rate with a lower monthly payment. Advertisement The climb in the median household income for people purchasing a home for the first time suggests Americans typically need to make closer to six figures to become homeowners. Related stories In 1984, the typical household made $22,420 a year — or around $66,000 in 2023 dollars —while the typical first-time buyer made nearly $31,000 — or around $91,000 in 2023 dollars. In 2023, the median household income was around $80,600, and first-time homebuyers made $97,000. Zillow research published earlier this year said people have to make over $106,000, 80% higher than what was needed in January 2020, "to comfortably afford a home ." Advertisement Median incomes for homebuyers dipped in 2021 in part due to the kinds of areas people were moving to. "Lower median income may be a reflection of buyers purchasing in more affordable locations such as small towns," a NAR report said, adding, "and an increased share of senior buyers who may be retired." The share of first-time homebuyers dropped to just 24% in 2024, down from 32% in 2023 and a record 50% in 2010. This marks the lowest percentage since NAR began tracking the data in 1981. Advertisement The pullback in homebuying demand has been largely driven by the ongoing affordability crisis , compounded by a shrinking supply of entry-level homes . There are fewer of these types of homes — typically smaller and more affordable for first-time buyers — on the market than there used to be, and the ones that are for sale are more expensive . "We're seeing that the most difficult step for successful homebuyers is finding the right property," Snowden said. Advertisement In 2024, the median age of first-time buyers was 38, nine years older than in 1981. Meanwhile, the median age of repeat buyers increased from 36 to 61. Unlike repeat buyers, who tend to be older and have more wealth or home equity, many would-be first-time buyers — often younger people, like Gen Zers and millennials — lack the financial resources needed to purchase a home. Snowden said that many people are spending money on expensive rents, student loans, credit card bills, and car loans that they would otherwise set aside for a down payment. Advertisement As a result, many are postponing their plans to buy . Others may abandon dreams of homeownership altogether. The share of homebuyers without children under 18 years old in their homes has widened to 73%, 10 percentage points higher than a decade earlier. People without the financial demands of raising children tend to enjoy greater financial flexibility. Some can save thousands of dollars each year — which could be directed toward a down payment or other homebuying costs. Advertisement Married or cohabitating couples without children are often referred to as DINKS — an acronym for "dual income, no kids." Data from the Federal Reserve's Survey of Consumer Finances shows that DINKs typically have a median net worth exceeding $200,000. In contrast, many households with children experience financial strain, as parents allocate a significant portion of their income to day care , medical bills, and school tuition — expenses that can make saving enough to buy a home more challenging. In addition to couples who never had kids, many baby boomers and Gen Xers who had kids are now empty nesters and may be looking to downsize. Advertisement Since NAR started collecting data, single women homebuyers have outpaced single men homebuyers, but the gap has grown. Single women made up 20% of all homebuyers in 2024, while the share of single men purchasing homes dropped to just 8%. Snowden said single women are often drawn to homeownership for several reasons, including independence, divorce, and the responsibility of raising children. Advertisement Snowden said that single female buyers are typically older than their single male counterparts, with the median age for single women at 60 compared to 58 for single men. "These buyers could be recently divorced or purchasing a home for more than just themselves, but also for their children and parents," she said. Jessica Lautz, NAR deputy chief economist and vice president of research, said in a news release that "current homeowners can more easily make housing trades using built-up housing equity for cash purchases or large down payments on dream homes." First-time homebuyers, meanwhile, tend to have to go through the process of taking out a mortgage, potentially losing their chance on a housing bid to those who have money ready for their next home. Advertisement The share of homebuyers who paid in cash climbed from 7% in 2003 to 26% in 2024. Snowden said this data is based on primary residences only, excluding investor properties.

A look at how some of Trump's picks to lead health agencies could help carry out Kennedy's overhaul Donald Trump's health team picks include a retired congressman, a surgeon and a former talk-show host. All could play pivotal roles in fulfilling an agenda that could change how the government goes about safeguarding Americans’ health, from health care and medicines to food safety and science research. In line to be Trump's health secretary is anti-vaccine organizer Robert F. Kennedy Jr. He says his task is to “reorganize” federal health agencies. They employ 80,000 scientists, researchers, doctors and other officials, and effect Americans’ daily lives. Trump raced to pick many Cabinet posts. He took more time to settle on a treasury secretary WASHINGTON (AP) — President-elect Donald Trump launched a blitz of picks for his Cabinet, but he took his time settling on billionaire investor Scott Bessent as his choice for treasury secretary. The Republican not only wanted someone who jibes with him, but an official who can execute his economic vision and look straight out of central casting while doing so. With his Yale University education and pedigree trading for Soros Fund Management before establishing his own funds, Bessent will be tasked with a delicate balancing act. Trump expects him to help reset the global trade order, enable trillions of dollars in tax cuts, ensure inflation stays in check, manage a ballooning national debt and still keep the financial markets confident. Israeli strikes in central Beirut kill at least 20 as diplomats push for a cease-fire BEIRUT, Lebanon (AP) — Lebanese officials say Israeli airstrikes have killed at least 20 people and injured dozens in central Beirut, as the once-rare attacks on the heart of Lebanon’s capital continue without warning. Diplomats are scrambling to broker a cease-fire but say obstacles still remain. The current proposal calls for a two-month cease-fire during which Israeli forces would withdraw from Lebanon and Hezbollah would end its armed presence along the southern border south of the Litani River. Lebanon’s Health Ministry says Israeli attacks have killed more than 3,500 people in Lebanon in the months of fighting that have turned into all-out war. Voters rejected historic election reforms across the US, despite more than $100M push JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (AP) — Election reform advocates had hoped for a big year at the ballot box. That's because a historic number of states were considering initiatives for ranked choice voting or to end partisan primaries. Instead, voters dealt them big losses in the November elections. Voters in Arizona, Colorado, Idaho, Missouri, Montana, Nevada, Oregon and South Dakota all rejected proposed changes to their voting systems. In Alaska, a proposal to repeal ranked choice voting appears to have narrowly fallen short. The losses in many states came even though election reform supporters raised more than $100 million, easily outpacing opponents. Supporters say they aren't giving up but plan to retool their efforts. The week that upped the stakes of the Ukraine war KYIV, Ukraine (AP) — This past week has seen the most significant escalation in hostilities Ukraine has witnessed since Russia's full-scale invasion and marks a new chapter in the nearly three-year war. It began with U.S. President Joe Biden reversing a longstanding policy by granting Kyiv permission to deploy American longer-range missiles inside Russian territory and ended with Moscow striking Ukraine with a new experimental ballistic weapon that has alarmed the international community and heightened fears of further escalation. US reels from rain, snow as second round of bad weather approaches for Thanksgiving week WINDSOR, Calif. (AP) — The U.S. is reeling from snow and rain while preparing for another bout of bad weather ahead of Thanksgiving that could disrupt holiday travel. California is bracing for more snow and rain while still grappling with some flooding and small landslides from a previous storm. The National Weather Service has issued a winter storm warning for California's Sierra Nevada through Tuesday, with heavy snow expected at high elevations. Parts of the Northeast and Appalachia are also starting the weekend with heavy precipitation. Meanwhile thousands remain without power in the Seattle area after a “bomb cyclone” storm system roared ashore the West Coast earlier in the week, killing two people. Even with access to blockbuster obesity drugs, some people don't lose weight Most people taking popular drugs like Ozempic and Wegovy to lose weight have shed significant pounds. But obesity experts say that roughly 20% of patients — as many as 1 in 5 — may not see robust results with the new medications. The response to the drugs varies from person to person and can depend on genetics, hormones and differences in how the brain regulates energy. Undiagnosed medical conditions and some drugs can prevent weight loss. Experts say it can take experimentation to help so-called nonresponders find results. Fighting between armed sectarian groups in restive northwestern Pakistan kills at least 37 people PESHAWAR, Pakistan (AP) — A senior Pakistani police officer says fighting between armed sectarian groups in the country's restive northwest has killed at least 37 people. The overnight violence was the latest to rock Kurram, a district in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, and comes days after a deadly gun ambush killed 42 people. The officer said Saturday that armed men torched shops, houses and government property overnight. Gunfire is ongoing between rival tribes. Although Sunnis and Shiites generally live together peacefully in Pakistan, tensions remain in some areas, especially Kurram. Hydrate. Make lists. Leave yourself time. And other tips for reducing holiday travel stress Travel, especially during the holiday season, can be stressful. But following some tips from the pros as you prepare for a trip can make for a smoother, less anxious experience. One expert traveler suggests making a list a week before you go of things you need to do and pack. Cross off each item as you complete it during the week. Another tip is to carry your comfort zone with you. That could mean noise-canceling headphones, playlists meant to soothe airport travelers, entertainment and snacks from home. Carry a change of clothes and a phone charger in case of delays. Stay hydrated. Leave extra time. And know your airline's rules. Downloading the airline's app can help with that.

By DAVID SHARP, The Associated Press The U.S. Navy is transforming a costly flub into a potent weapon with the first shipborne hypersonic weapon, which is being retrofitted aboard the first of its three stealthy destroyers. The USS Zumwalt is at a Mississippi shipyard where workers have installed missile tubes that replace twin turrets from a gun system that was never activated because it was too expensive. Once the system is complete, the Zumwalt will provide a platform for conducting fast, precision strikes from greater distances, adding to the usefulness of the warship. “It was a costly blunder but the Navy could take victory from the jaws of defeat here, and get some utility out of them by making them into a hypersonic platform,” said Bryan Clark, a defense analyst at the Hudson Institute. The U.S. has had several types of hypersonic weapons in development for the past two decades, but recent tests by both Russia and China have added pressure to the U.S. military to hasten their production. Hypersonic weapons travel beyond Mach 5, five times the speed of sound, with added maneuverability making them harder to shoot down. Last year, The Washington Post reported that among the documents leaked by former Massachusetts Air National Guard member Jack Teixeira was a defense department briefing that confirmed China had recently tested an intermediate-range hypersonic weapon called the DF-27. While the Pentagon had previously acknowledged the weapon’s development, it had not recognized its testing. One of the U.S. programs in development and planned for the Zumwalt is “Conventional Prompt Strike.” It would launch like a ballistic missile and then release a hypersonic glide vehicle that would travel at speeds seven to eight times faster than the speed of sound before hitting the target. The weapon system is being developed jointly by the Navy and Army. Each of the Zumwalt-class destroyers would be equipped with four missile tubes, each with three of the missiles for a total of 12 hypersonic weapons per ship. In choosing the Zumwalt, the Navy is attempting to add to the usefulness of a $7.5 billion warship that is considered by critics to be an expensive mistake despite serving as a test platform for multiple innovations. The Zumwalt was envisioned as providing land-attack capability with an Advanced Gun System with rocket-assisted projectiles to open the way for Marines to charge ashore. But the system featuring 155 mm guns hidden in stealthy turrets was canceled because each of the rocket-assisted projectiles cost between $800,000 and $1 million. Despite the stain on its reputation, the three Zumwalt-class destroyers remain the Navy’s most advanced surface warship in terms of new technologies. Those innovations include electric propulsion, an angular shape to minimize radar signature, an unconventional wave-piercing hull, automated fire and damage control and a composite deckhouse that hides radar and other sensors. The Zumwalt arrived at the Huntington Ingalls Industries shipyard in Pascagoula, Mississippi, in August 2023 and was removed from the water for the complex work of integrating the new weapon system. It is due to be undocked this week in preparation for the next round of tests and its return to the fleet, shipyard spokeswoman Kimberly Aguillard said. A U.S. hypersonic weapon was successfully tested over the summer and development of the missiles is continuing. The Navy wants to begin testing the system aboard the Zumwalt in 2027 or 2028, according to the Navy. The U.S. weapon system will come at a steep price. It would cost nearly $18 billion to buy 300 of the weapons and maintain them over 20 years, according to the Congressional Budget Office. Critics say there is too little bang for the buck. “This particular missile costs more than a dozen tanks. All it gets you is a precise non-nuclear explosion, some place far far away. Is it really worth the money? The answer is most of the time the missile costs much more than any target you can destroy with it,” said Loren Thompson, a longtime military analyst in Washington, D.C. But they provide the capability for Navy vessels to strike an enemy from a distance of thousands of kilometers — outside the range of most enemy weapons — and there is no effective defense against them, said retired Navy Rear Adm. Ray Spicer, CEO of the U.S. Naval Institute, a think tank, and former commander of an aircraft carrier strike force. Conventional missiles that cost less aren’t much of a bargain if they are unable to reach their targets, Spicer said, adding the U.S. military really has no choice but to pursue them. “The adversary has them. We never want to be outdone,” he said. The U.S. is accelerating development because hypersonics have been identified as vital to U.S. national security with “survivable and lethal capabilities,” said James Weber, principal director for hypersonics in the Office of the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Critical Technologies. “Fielding new capabilities that are based on hypersonic technologies is a priority for the defense department to sustain and strengthen our integrated deterrence, and to build enduring advantages,” he said.
By Lakhvinder Singh Lakhvinder Singh Donald Trump's return as U.S. president has introduced profound uncertainties for South Korea's foreign and security policies, which have been closely aligned with the Biden administration. Trump's transactional approach to alliances could destabilize South Korea's security and economic frameworks, necessitating a reassessment of its strategic posture within the Indo-Pacific region. This shift may also complicate the rapidly strengthening India-Korea strategic partnership, potentially stalling recent advancements and impacting the regional balance of power. While it may be premature to fully gauge the impact of Trump's reelection on India-South Korea strategic relations, his initial pronouncements reveal a complex set of challenges as well as potential new pathways for collaboration between India and South Korea. Trump's return as the 47th president of the United States presents both nuanced challenges and strategic openings for these two countries amid a reshaping of global alliances in response to escalating tensions in East Asia. Trump's likely intensification of an antiglobal agenda and his continued emphasis on cost-sharing for U.S. forces stationed in South Korea could strain the traditional U.S.-South Korea alliance, compelling Seoul to reevaluate its defense and strategic partnerships within the region. Concurrently, India's growing engagement with BRICS may create friction with U.S. interests as the bloc's objectives increasingly diverge from those of the U.S. BRICS is an intergovernmental group including Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa. In light of these developments, India and South Korea could strengthen their partnership, unified by a mutual vision of a secure, multipolar Indo-Pacific and resilient economic ties that offer a balanced response to regional power dynamics. Trump's anticipated efforts to improve U.S. relations with Russia and potentially reengage North Korea necessitate a recalibrated India-South Korea alignment, fostering mutual trust and counterbalancing the influence of a potential China-Russia-North Korea bloc. Russia remains one of India's primary arms suppliers, while China is South Korea's largest trading partner, adding further intricacies to their respective foreign policies. China's assertive posture in the South China Sea is a shared concern for both nations, which are highly dependent on stable maritime routes for economic stability. The degree to which India and South Korea can align their interests with Trump's antiglobalist agenda remains uncertain. The North Korean nuclear issue remains a constant security threat to both India and South Korea, underscoring the need for coordinated responses. Given Trump's focus on an "America First" approach, his administration may engage North Korea in ways that prioritize U.S. national interests, necessitating alternative approaches for India and South Korea. In this regard, India's experience with nuclear-armed neighbors provides valuable insights for South Korean policymakers, while South Korea's regional proximity and intelligence expertise offer critical knowledge about North Korea's nuclear collaborations with states in the Middle East and South Asia. Collaboratively, India and South Korea could leverage India's neutral stance to facilitate diplomatic channels in multilateral forums while relying on South Korea's intelligence capabilities to strengthen their regional security posture. As the Trump administration reasserts a nationalistic stance on Indo-Pacific policies, there is a strong likelihood of heightened technological and military cooperation between India and South Korea. This prospective alignment would enable both countries to respond effectively to regional uncertainties, irrespective of U.S. involvement, thereby defending their shared interests and way of life. Such cooperation could potentially extend to more frequent joint military exercises, advanced defense technology exchanges and intelligence-sharing aimed at countering North Korea's missile developments and China's regional assertiveness. These measures would not only strengthen the defensive capabilities of both nations but also contribute to a cohesive security framework essential for sustaining stability across the Indo-Pacific. For India, traditionally reliant on Russian defense technology, increased collaboration with South Korea would provide access to advanced military technologies, offering a strategic pivot from its historical dependency on Russian arms amid Russia's current challenges due to the Ukraine conflict. Additionally, both countries are well-positioned to partner in critical technology sectors, including cybersecurity, space exploration and missile defense, which are essential for addressing shared security challenges. The semiconductor industry, a crucial sector for both economies, presents a promising opportunity for joint investment, bolstering supply chain resilience and advancing technological independence. Trump's "America First" policy is likely to induce shifts in global trade patterns. However, India and South Korea have strong incentives to enhance bilateral economic ties, mitigating potential disruptions from U.S. trade policies. India's "Make in India" initiative and burgeoning digital economy provide a robust platform for South Korean investments, while South Korea's advanced manufacturing capabilities could cater to India's expanding consumer market. This resilient economic partnership would not only sustain bilateral trade but also provide stability against the volatility of U.S. trade policy under Trump, establishing a reliable economic foundation for both countries. The reelection of Trump introduces both continuity and complexity to the India-South Korea strategic relationship, urging both nations to remain adaptable and proactive within East Asia's shifting power dynamics. A second Trump term may serve as a catalyst for deeper defense cooperation, enhanced technological collaborations and strengthened economic ties between India and South Korea. With Trump's emphasis on an "America First" policy, the potential consolidation of a China-Russia-North Korea axis underscores the urgency for a robust India-South Korea alliance, positioning both nations as stabilizing forces within East Asia and empowering them to address the complex challenges posed by an evolving international order. Although a Trump presidency may bring India and South Korea closer together, policymakers should exercise caution. Potential collaboration does not necessarily equate to guaranteed opportunities. Given the fluidity of the geopolitical landscape, decision-makers in both countries must remain vigilant to safeguard their interests. A single misstep could risk derailing the trajectory of cooperation, directing both countries in divergent paths and curtailing the prospect of a close partnership. Both nations are thus urged to approach this alliance with prudence, ensuring their strategies remain aligned with a long-term vision for sustained cooperation.
