ENVESTNET INC. ANNOUNCES MAKE-WHOLE FUNDAMENTAL CHANGE AND SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES UNDER ITS 0.75% CONVERTIBLE NOTES DUE 2025 AND 2.625% CONVERTIBLE NOTES DUE 2027PHILADELPHIA — Jason Kelce will try his hand at late-night television early next year. Kelce announced during an appearance on ABC's “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” on Thursday night that he will host “They Call It Late Night with Jason Kelce,” on ESPN. The one-hour show will tape on five straight Friday nights beginning Jan. 3. That coincides with the last week of the NFL's regular season and the playoffs. The show will originate in front of a live audience from Union Transfer in Philadelphia. The first four episodes will air at 1 a.m. EST starting on Jan. 4 with the final episode coming on at 1:30 a.m. EST on Feb. 1. “I loved late-night shows, I’ve always loved them. I remember sleepovers watching Conan O’Brien with my friends,” Kelce said on Kimmel's show. “We’re going to have a bunch of guys up there — legends of the game, friends that I played with, coaches, celebrities,” Kelce said. The Philadelphia-based band Snacktime will provide the show's music. The show's title is a homage to “They Call it Pro Football,” which was NFL Films’ first full-length film in 1967. NFL Films originated in Philadelphia and founders Ed and Steve Sabol are in the Pro Football Hall of Fame. It also featured the legendary voice of John Facenda, who did the news on Philadelphia television before becoming better known as the voice of NFL Films. NFL Films will produce the show in conjunction with Kelce’s Wooderboy Productions and Skydance Sports. Each episode will also be also seen on Replays airing on ESPN2, and also be available on ESPN+, ESPN's YouTube channel and the Jason Kelce channel on YouTube. Kelce is in the first year of a multi-year agreement with ESPN. He appears on the network's “Monday Night Countdown” show as well as providing halftime and postgame analysis. He played 13 years for the Philadelphia Eagles before retiring at the end of last season and was the most sought-after former player by networks. He participated in last year’s NFL Broadcasting and Media Workshop , which used to be known as the “Broadcast Bootcamp.” Kelce has made news lately, though, for other reasons. He was involved in a confrontation with a fan in State College, Pennsylvania, before the Penn State-Ohio State game on Nov. 2, when a fan heckled Kelce and appeared to shout an anti-gay slur about his brother, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, for dating pop star Taylor Swift. Video showed Kelce grabbing the fan’s phone and throwing it to the ground. Kelce apologized about the incident on ESPN on Nov. 4. On Thursday night an autograph seeker verbally confronted Kelce outside the El Capitan Entertainment Center in Hollywood, where “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” is taped. Video obtained by TMZ shows Kelce explaining that he doesn’t sign autographs for people that follow where he is going. After being shouted at for over two minutes, Kelce eventually got out of the car and signed autographs, including shaking the hand of a man who was berating Kelce with obscenities. ___ AP NFL: https://apnews.com/hub/nfl

OpenAI, the AI model maker that , is partnering with Anduril, a military contractor, the two companies announced Wednesday. As part of the partnership, OpenAI will integrate its software into Anduril’s counterdrone systems, which detect and take down drones. It’s OpenAI’s first partnership with a defense contractor — and a significant reversal of its earlier stance towards the military. OpenAI’s terms of service once banned “military and warfare” use of its technology, but it softened its position on military use earlier this year, in January to remove the proscription. “OpenAI builds AI to benefit as many people as possible, and supports U.S.-led efforts to ensure the technology upholds democratic values,” OpenAI CEO Sam Altman said in a . “Our partnership with Anduril will help ensure OpenAI technology protects U.S. military personnel, and will help the national security community understand and responsibly use this technology to keep our citizens safe and free.” As the notes, Anduril — currently valued at $14 billion — has a $200 million counterdrone systems contract with the Marine Corps. But OpenAI won’t just benefit financially from its Anduril partnership; it also stands to gain political clout. Anduril co-founder Palmer Luckey was an early supporter of president-elect Donald Trump, and also has ties to Elon Musk, one of the heads of the still-nebulous (and still nonexistent) . And the America First Policy Institute, a right-wing think-tank working closely with the Trump transition team, has proposed that to create a new “Manhattan Project” for defense. /

It was the fourth time this season they had conceded four or more and the performance showed why they have the Premier League’s worst defence. When O’Neil and the players went over to acknowledge the visiting supporters there were boos for a run of two wins in 14 league matches. “Whatever the fans think of me, there is definitely no-none working harder than me and I will continue to do so until someone tells me not to,” said O’Neil, who is under increasing pressure with his side second bottom of the table. “I go over there to see them because I appreciate every one of the Wolves fans. They have given me unbelievable support since I arrived at the football club,” he said. “We managed to produce some unbelievable stuff last season with a team that was heavily tipped by most of the nation for relegation. We managed to enjoy it together. “Now it is tough. I was happy to go over there and look them right in the face and take any criticism they want to throw at me. “I accept responsibility for my part in that. Whatever criticism they want to throw at me will not change how I feel about them. “Everyone at this football club needs to do more. We will get back to be ready to fight again on Monday (another crucial game against West Ham, whose manager Julen Lopetegui’s tenure is hanging by a thread). “I will work with everything I have. I will back myself to get the most out of the group. I understand the drive for change (but) you never know how much of a percentage of supporters it is.” Veteran Ashley Young ended Everton’s 370-minute wait for a goal with a 10th-minute free-kick, his first league goal for more than two years, and on-loan Lyon midfielder Orel Mangala blasted home his first for the club to establish a 2-0 half-time lead. Two Craig Dawson own goals secured Everton’s biggest home league win since April 2019, but manager Sean Dyche insisted their issues up front were far from sorted. He said: “It’s our fifth clean sheet in the last eight so the consistency has been there in one degree, we just haven’t been scoring goals. That’s been the hardest thing to find consistently and we haven’t solved it yet. “Goals change everything, they change opinions. That’s what football is like.” The victory was hugely important in a month in which, having been hammered 4-0 at Manchester United, they face top-six sides Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea, Manchester City and Nottingham Forest and undoubtedly eased some of the pressure on Dyche and his players. “I’ve told them how proud I am of them,” he added. “The challenges come thick and fast on and off the pitch and they just keep going. “It’s only a step and there are many more to go but it’s a good step and a positive step. “It’s a temporary moment in time because the next one is a big one (Saturday’s Merseyside derby).”Suspect identified in burning of a woman on NYC subway

Gary O’Neil accepts criticism from Wolves fans after heavy defeat at EvertonThe third quarter brought double-digit client growth to workforce technology supplier — a small but sure signal, perhaps, that more state and local agencies are turning to advanced tools to help with hiring and retention. The California-based company, around for about a decade, said that it recently posted a 125 percent quarter-over-quarter increase in the client base for its latest product, called , which offers what a statement called “real-time compensation data and analysis” for public officials. The company’s total client base now stands at more than 1,000. GovInvest sells software that public agencies can use for compensation analysis and comparison, financial forecasting, pension liability calculations and other tasks. The growth comes amid heightened concern about . Those worries include not only attracting top talent to , but in such growing areas as and , even as public-sector salaries remain relatively low compared to those offered by and other parts of the private sector. GovInvest is benefiting from those trends as public agencies increasingly focus on getting better, more up-to-date data on “what the market is paying,” CEO Michael Fryke told . “We bring clarity so they know who should get what.” That’s not to say that the company’s recent growth provides total illumination about how public agencies are dealing with hiring and retention in an often-challenging environment. But the latest numbers from GovInvest do at least offer a glimpse of what’s happening. As well, most government technology suppliers are privately held — as is GovInvest — and keep their financials guarded, so such quarterly figures are often newsworthy on their own. In the third quarter of 2024, the company says it won clients and expanded deals in California, Georgia, Ohio, Rhode Island, Iowa, Texas and Washington. California remains the company’s prime market, and its clients there include such cities as San Bernardino, Beverly Hills and San Marcos. New growth has been particularly strong in the Southwest and Pacific Northwest, Fryke said. , GovInvest has raised at least $17.9 million since 2014. The company has yet to turn a profit, Fryke said, as it continues to focus on growth.

The Washington Commanders put kicker Austin Seibert on injured reserve Tuesday, just over 48 hours since he missed an extra point that would have tied the score with 21 seconds left against Dallas. Seibert also missed a field-goal attempt and another extra point in the loss to the Cowboys. He missed the previous two games with a right hip injury but said afterward he was fine and made the decision to play.UK-based Kurdish advocacy groups have condemned the arrest of seven people by counter-terrorism police in London as part of an investigation into the banned Kurdistan Workers’ party, known as the PKK. Four men aged 23, 27, 56 and 62, and two women aged 31 and 59, were arrested at separate addresses during dawn raids in the capital on Wednesday and remain in custody, the Metropolitan police said. A 31-year-old man was arrested Wednesday afternoon in west London. All are yet to be charged. Shortly after noon on Wednesday, disorder broke out in Haringey, north London, with large numbers of people turning out to prevent further raids in the area. Searches were taking place at eight addresses, including the Kurdish Community Centre in Haringey where police said their investigation could take up to two weeks. Acting commander Helen Flanagan, of the Met’s Counter Terrorism Command, said: “This activity has come about following a significant investigation and operation into activity we believe is linked to the terrorist group PKK. These are targeted arrests of those we suspect of being involved in terrorist activity linked to the group. “I hope that these arrests show that we will not tolerate any sort of terrorist activity and that we will take action where we believe there is harm being caused to communities here, in the UK or elsewhere.” The force said there was no imminent threat to the public. Kurdish community groups called for the “immediate release of those detained” and said the arrests were an “affront to the principles of democracy, justice, and human rights that the UK claims to hold”. In Haringey Green Lanes, the heart of the UK’s Turkish-speaking community, the usually quiet streets saw scenes of disorder on Wednesday. More than 100 people took to the streets, chanting “shame on you” at police and blocking officers from conducting further raids in the area. The Kurdish Community Centre was among the sites targeted by police. The Kurdish People’s Assembly in the UK, an advocacy group for the community, is based in the building. Ishak Milani, co-chair of the Kurdish People’s Assembly in the UK, said: “We, the Kurdish community in London, strongly condemn the recent unjust and heavy-handed raid conducted by British police on our community spaces. “This aggressive act is not only an attack on our people but also an affront to the principles of democracy, justice, and human rights that the UK claims to uphold. “We demand accountability for this raid and a clear explanation for the actions taken.” Speaking outside the centre, Milani said: “We woke up in shock, because the UK police attacked our friends, our political activists. They arrested six of them and raided our community centre, which is really important to us.” He said police had raided the centre almost on the same date last year: “We are really worried about today. Last year, during our celebrations, they raided our community centre and attacked us.” Day-Mer, another community group for the Turkish-speaking community in London, condemned the raid on the Kurdish Community Centre and called for “the immediate release of those detained”. One man said his sister was among those arrested and he was staying with her when the police came. “At 3 o’clock in the morning, I was staying at my sister’s house. They broke the door down, I thought it was a robbery,” he said. “I’ve never seen police like this, they didn’t look like Metropolitan police. They covered their face.” When he spoke to the Guardian, he had stitches on his forehead and dried blood on his ear. “I ran into my sister’s bedroom. I closed the door then they broke it and they broke my face. Half an hour later, they took me to hospital. Blood was coming down my hand and my face,” he said. “My sister was scared. They called the ambulance and arrested her. I don’t know where she is now.” He said his sister is often detained when travelling abroad. “My sister, when we go to Europe, they always keep her. Last month, they kept her for eight hours, from 8pm to four in the morning,” she said. Feryal Clark, the first Kurdish-British Labour MP, said on Wednesday night she was concerned by the raid. “I have raised the matter with the relevant ministers and I’m in contact with the local authorities & leaders,” the MP for Enfield North posted on X. The PKK is a separatist group that wants an independent Kurdish state in south-east Turkey. It has been banned in the UK since 2001. The group has been fighting against the Turkish state since the early 1980s.

NEW YORK — A number of President-elect Donald Trump 's most prominent Cabinet picks and appointees have been targeted by bomb threats and “swatting attacks," Trump's transition team said Wednesday. The FBI said it was investigating. “Last night and this morning, several of President Trump’s Cabinet nominees and Administration appointees were targeted in violent, unAmerican threats to their lives and those who live with them," Trump transition spokesperson Karoline Leavitt said in a statement. The attacks ranged from bomb threats to swatting, in which attackers initiate an emergency law enforcement response against a target victim under false pretenses, she said. The tactic has become a popular one in recent years. Leavitt said law enforcement and other authorities acted quickly to ensure the safety of those who were targeted and Trump and his transition team are grateful. Among those targeted were New York Rep. Elise Stefanik, Trump’s pick to serve as the next ambassador to the United Nations; Matt Gaetz, Trump’s initial pick to serve as attorney general; Oregon Rep. Lori Chavez-DeRemer, whom Trump chose to lead the Department of Labor, and former New York congressman Lee Zeldin, who has been tapped to lead the Environmental Protection Agency. Law enforcement officials are also looking into whether Susie Wiles, Trump’s incoming chief of staff, and Pam Bondi, the former Florida attorney general whom Trump has chosen as Gaetz’s replacement, and other incoming administration officials were also victims — as well as how each was targeted, according to a law enforcement official who spoke on condition of anonymity as the investigation continues. Wiles and Bondi did not immediately respond to requests for comment. The FBI said in a statement that it was “aware of numerous bomb threats and swatting incidents targeting incoming administration nominees and appointees" and was investigating with its law enforcement partners. White House spokesperson Saloni Sharma said President Joe Biden had been briefed and the White House is in touch with federal law enforcement and Trump's transition team. Biden “continues to monitor the situation closely," Sharma said, adding the president and his administration “condemn threats of political violence.” Stefanik's office said that, on Wednesday morning, she, her husband, and their 3-year-old son were driving home from Washington for Thanksgiving when they were informed of a bomb threat to their residence in Saratoga County. Police swept Stefanik’s home on Wednesday morning in response to the bomb threat but did not locate any explosive devices, New York State Police said. Zeldin said in a social media post that he and his family had also been threatened. “A pipe bomb threat targeting me and my family at our home today was sent in with a pro-Palestinian themed message,” he wrote on X. “My family and I were not home at the time and are safe." In Florida, the Okaloosa County sheriff’s office said on Facebook that it “received notification of a bomb threat referencing former Congressman Matt Gaetz’s supposed mailbox at a home in the Niceville area" Wednesday. While a family member resides at the address, the office said, Gaetz “is NOT a resident.” No threatening devices were found. Gaetz was Trump’s initial pick to serve as attorney general, but he withdrew from consideration after allegations that he paid women for sex and slept with underage women. Gaetz has vehemently denied any wrongdoing, and a Justice Department investigation into sex trafficking allegations ended with no charges against him. The threats follow a political campaign marked by disturbing and unprecedented violence. In July, a gunman opened fire at a Trump rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, grazing the then-candidate in the ear with a bullet and killing one of his supporters. The Secret Service later thwarted a subsequent assassination attempt at Trump's West Palm Beach, Florida, golf course when an agent spotted the barrel of a gun poking through a perimeter fence while Trump was golfing. Trump was also the subject of an Iranian murder-for-hire plot, with a man saying he had been tasked with planning the assassination of the Republican president-elect. Also this week, authorities arrested a man they say posted videos on social media threatening to kill Trump, according to court documents. In one video posted on Nov. 13, Manuel Tamayo-Torres threatened to shoot the former president while holding what appeared to be an AR-15 style rifle, authorities said Among the other videos he posted was one from an arena in Glendale, Arizona on Aug. 23, the same day Trump held a campaign rally there, according to court papers. An attorney for Tamayo-Torres did not immediately respond to a request for comment Wednesday. Public figures across the political spectrum have been targeted in recent years by hoax bomb threats and false reports of shootings at their homes. About a year ago the FBI responded to an uptick in such incidents at the homes of public officials, state capitols and courthouses across the country around the holidays. Many were locked down and evacuated in early January after receiving bomb threats. No explosives were found and no one was hurt. Some of those targeted last year were Georgia Lt. Gov. Burt Jones, Boston Mayor Michelle Wu and Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost.

MIAMI (AP) — One of Venezuela's most popular bands canceled its homecoming tour after President Nicolas Maduro criticized the group for what he said were sexist lyrics — a lashing out that many said was an attack by the leftist leader over the band's embrace of his political opponents. Rawayana, a 2025 Grammy nominee, was to play across the country to sold-out shows, starting this week but the concerts were abruptly cancelled on Tuesday night.

It's no secret that Nvidia ( NVDA 0.54% ) is one of the hottest artificial intelligence (AI) stocks in the market. The chip-making juggernaut just reported an incredible Q3, beating Wall Street's sky-high expectations. So why was the stock trading lower on Thursday when the market opened? Although it might seem to defy logic, it's not an uncommon phenomenon. Let's take a look at why it happens and see if the past might shed some light on what happens next. First, let's take a look at Nvidia's quarter. Even for Nvidia, this was a strong quarter Few companies have as much riding on their shoulders as Nvidia does in the current market. The company's performance is seen as a bellwether for the market as a whole. It's a good thing, then, that Nvidia delivered this quarter. Nvidia's data center segment continues to be the driving force behind its success, though its gaming arm is still showing solid growth. Demand for its Superchips and related hardware is at a fever pitch. As CEO Jensen Huang puts it, "The age of AI is in full steam, propelling a global shift to Nvidia computing." The big news is the confirmation that Blackwell, the newest iteration of its Superchips, is on schedule and will be rolled out without a hitch. During the earnings call, Huang made clear that the first chips are already "in the hands of all of [Nvidia's] major partners" and will soon be shipped to end users -- companies like Meta and Microsoft operate massive AI data centers. According to Huang, demand for Blackwell is "staggering"; Nvidia has so many orders it is struggling to keep pace. Despite this, demand for its current Hopper chips remains strong, and Huang indicated he believed orders would continue well into next year. Nvidia's reach is global Beyond the numbers, Nvidia highlighted some important developments that show the growing demand beyond U.S. commercial clients. Denmark just launched its first AI supercomputer driven by Nvidia's Hopper chips. This is an important client base for Nvidia that is often overshadowed by its success with big tech cloud operators. "Sovereign AI" -- world governments running their own computers -- could be a massive industry as nations around the world enter an information arms race. Nvidia is also finding commercial success worldwide, with new private companies in India, Japan, and Indonesia building Nvidia-powered AI data centers. Nvidia's stock dips In the initial hours after the market opened on Thursday, shares of Nvidia slipped, briefly reaching $141 after closing at nearly $146 the day before. Why would this happen after such a strong quarter? This is pretty common if Wall Street's expectations exceed the company's performance, even if that performance is solid. That's not what happened here. Nvidia beat estimates handily, delivering revenues of $35.1 billion and earnings per share (EPS) of $0.81. Consensus targets were $33.2 billion and $0.75, respectively. Here's the thing: market sentiment can exceed even Wall Street estimates. With all the hype around Nvidia and talk of "insane" demand for its new chips, it's becoming increasingly difficult for the company to live up to investors' expectations no matter what numbers it delivers. It's the curse of success. Nvidia has continuously beat estimates, so now, even when it does, it might not be by enough. Certain research has shown that investors tend to put too much faith in past earnings. Over time, this leads to a stock being overbought in the lead-up to an earnings release and a short-term dip after the release. What Nvidia is experiencing is very normal. Don't panic. The long-term potential is where we want to place most of our focus here and this report shows it is still firing on all cylinders. Given other stocks that have been in Nvidia's shoes and Nvidia itself last quarter -- shares dipped 18% in the days after earnings -- history tells us that the stock will be just fine.ENVESTNET INC.

SECURING EVIDENCE Bundles of cash in peso and US dollar bills are discovered in the 12 vaults opened by government agents at the Central One Bataan office in Bagac, Bataan, on Wednesday, in a follow-up operation after their Oct. 31 raid. —PAOCC PHOTO MABALACAT CITY, PAMPANGA — The police found on Wednesday some P112.5 million in cash after breaking open 12 of the 14 safes of a business process outsourcing (BPO) company in Bagac, Bataan, that was raided last month for alleged human trafficking and illegal online gambling. Agents of the Criminal Investigation and Detection Group (CIDG) of the Philippine National Police opened the safes of Central One Bataan PH Inc. two days after securing a second search warrant from Executive Judge Hermenegildo Dumlao II of Malolos City Regional Trial Court Branch 81. The first warrant was for the raid conducted on Oct. 31 on the Central One complex, which consisted of several buildings inside a 2.7-hectare area in Centro Park, Bagac. A total of 57 foreign and 358 Filipino workers were present when teams from the CIDG and the Presidential Anti-Organized Crime Commission (PAOCC), with backups from the local police and military, secured the place. READ: Authorities raid Pogo hub in Bataan BPO company Central One has since denied PAOCC’s allegations of human trafficking and illegal gaming, saying it was operating as a duly licensed BPO company and that no criminal, civil or even regulatory complaint had been filed against it. On Wednesday, after the opening of the safes, a company lawyer maintained in a media interview that the money seized was for the employees’ salaries and operational expenses. PAOCC, however, maintained that the company illegally operated as a Pogo, or a Philippine offshore gaming operator, in defiance of the ban first announced by President Marcos in July. On Nov. 8, Malacañang released Mr. Marcos’ executive order detailing the scope of the ban. The Filipino employees were released after the raid but 42 foreigners were placed under arrest and detained at the PAOCC facility in Pasay City. On Nov. 7, PAOCC was compelled to free 41 of the 42 foreigners after receiving two release orders from the Bureau of Immigration (BI) signed by Commissioner Joel Anthony Viado, legal department chief Arvin Cesar Santos, and special prosecutor Raymond Nell Ganias. The 42nd foreigner, an Indonesian, remained in detention after it was discovered that he was wanted in his country for alleged money laundering, illegal online gambling, and scam operations. The BI order granted provisional liberty on recognizance to the 41 foreigners, ruling in favor of a petition filed on Nov. 6 by their lawyer, Cherry Anne dela Cruz. In its order, the BI said Dela Cruz and Bataan Rep. Albert Garcia had separately executed deeds of undertaking as guarantors for the 41 foreigners. In the petition, the foreign nationals insisted that they had work permits and visas, were employed by a company licensed and regulated by the Authority of the Freeport Area of Bataan, and should not be considered flight risks. They also described themselves as indigents who could not afford to post bail. On Nov. 12, Executive Secretary Lucas Bersamin ordered Viado and Justice Secretary Jesus Crispin Remulla to summarily deport the 42 foreigners and have them blacklisted to prevent reentry. In a memo giving the order, Bersamin described Central One Bataan is “an illegal Offshore Gaming Operation masquerading as a business process outsource” company. But more than a week after Bersamin’s order, the 41 foreigners earlier released on recognizance have yet to show up for the deportation process, the Inquirer learned from a source in PAOCC. They were supposed to present themselves at the Pasay facility on Nov. 18. Photos and documents obtained by the Inquirer, including a copy of a flight manifest, showed that six of the 41 boarded a chartered private plane that took off from Clark Freeport for Cebu on Nov. 8, a day after the BI ordered their release from PAOCC custody. A flight manifest showed the six to be Brazilian nationals, and that they were joined in the flight by two other passengers with Chinese names. Asked about the flight, Undersecretary Gilbert Cruz, the PAOCC executive director, said the agency had also received such a report. He declined further comment. The BI’s Viado and Santos had yet to respond to an Inquirer request for comment, which was coursed through Santos’ office on Nov. 13 and was formally acknowledged. On Tuesday, Cruz said PAOCC would monitor the implementation of Bersamin’s deportation order and the case being prepared by the CIDG and the Department of Justice against Central One Bataan. In earlier media interviews, Dela Cruz and Garcia also said they agreed to serve as the foreigners’ guarantors because the workers did not violate any law and that Central One Bataan was a legitimate BPO company.

Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh gave a touching Christmas message Saturday after winning a spot in the coming NFL playoffs. After the game, Harbaugh told reporters that it was important to him and millions of others to focus on what the coming holiday actually means, Fox News reported. “I read this to the team in our postgame prayer, and it’s this – this is Mary. Mary, the mother of God, said this when she was with Elizabeth,” Harbaugh said. “She said this, ‘My soul magnifies the Lord, and my spirit rejoices in God, my Savior.’ So, I just want to wish everybody a Merry Christmas, happy holiday season, and rejoice,” Harbaugh continued. ️ pic.twitter.com/34kdUq73IZ — Baltimore Ravens (@Ravens) December 22, 2024 “Rejoice. Rejoice in life. Rejoice in your circumstances. Rejoice in the tough games. Rejoice in the losses. Rejoice in the wins like we’re blessed to do today as a football team, and just rejoice in the people that you love, the people that are close to you. Rejoice,” he recited. “We aren’t here on this Earth to worry about every little thing and spar with one another. We’re here to rejoice in one another and with one another and love one another. Let’s try to remember that this week. This is a big football week – it’s also a big life week. It’s a big spiritual week,” Harbaugh explained. Harbaugh and the Ravens bested the Steelers on Saturday and will next play the Houston Texans on Christmas Day. The Steelers are not out of the hunt, though. They will also play on Christmas Day against the Kansas City Chiefs.

Gov. Janet Mills said she signed an executive order on Friday to establish a task force to examine the opportunities and implications of artificial intelligence for Maine’s people, economy and institutions. Mills said the executive order comes in response to a rapid surge of technological advancements that are poised to revolutionize how people live and work. Nearly one-fifth of the U.S. workforce is classified as “highly exposed” to AI, making them particularly vulnerable to job transformations driven by advancements in artificial intelligence. At the same time, AI has the potential to create new jobs and businesses, improve productivity and efficiency, and reduce barriers to entry in some technical fields. According to Mills, the Maine Artificial Intelligence Task Force will bring together business, education, labor, government and community leaders to study the challenges and opportunities associated with the proliferation of AI. Mills said the task force is charged with preparing policy recommendations that will position Maine to harness the benefits of AI while minimizing risks for people and businesses. The governor’s executive order directs the task force to study and offer recommendations in a report no later than Oct. 31, 2025. Mills said members of the 21-member task force will include leaders from Maine state and municipal government, the University of Maine System and the Maine Community College System, as well as members representing Maine workers, businesses, health care, civil rights advocacy, and a consumer protection organization. The governor will announce members of the Task Force in the coming weeks. The governor’s executive order also establishes a Technical Advisory Committee comprised of subject matter experts in technology, legal issues, energy and workforce policy to advise the Task Force.
