New episodes every Wednesday and Friday By JAMES COHEN Published: 18:29 EST, 26 November 2024 | Updated: 18:30 EST, 26 November 2024 e-mail View comments Manchester City goalkeeper Ederson was left red-faced after charging out and leaving an open goal for Feyenoord to score a crucial equaliser. Pep Guardiola 's side had lost five matches in a row, in all competitions, prior to the Champions League clash and looked as though they were going to change that. An Ilkay Gundogan strike and Erling Haaland brace secured put the hosts in the driving seat at the Etihad stadium. However, Feyenoord hit back with three goals in the final 15 minutes of regular time to ensure that Guardiola's side did not leave with all three points. City goalkeeper Ederson will feel he played a large part in the Dutch giants taking a point from the match after rushing out of his goal to allow them to equalise. In the dying moments of the match, the Brazilian charged out of his goal but mistimed his run, which allowed David Hancko to put the ball into an empty net.

'What was Ederson doing?' one fan asked as they shared a screenshot of Ederson flying out of his box. 'There's a reason why Ederson is behind Alisson in the Brazil national team pecking order,' another supporter said. Dragging another City player into the debate, one user wrote: 'Ederson and Gvardiol have genuinely bottled a 3-0 lead. That is impressive'. Speaking on the goal, Stuart Pearce told Amazon Prime: 'The line is so high, no pressure on the ball, they've helped it round the corner, the line's not straight, he's played onside and all you can see is black shirts around the box.' 'City play an aggressive high line, if you play that ad your players are full of confidence they'll know when to come up and when to stay with the runners. 'When the confidence is shaken a, little bit, you hold that line and you think "should I stay or not" and that hesitation costs you a goal.' Earlier in the game, Haaland took his goal tally for the campaign up to 17 goals after bagging a first-half brace against the visitors. City had looked in cruise control prior to a frantic 15-minute period at the end of the match Pep Guardiola's side are now six games without a win as they now head to title rivals Liverpool The first came from the penalty spot before he later slid in to convert from close range to double his tally on the night - prior to City's capitulation. Gundogan also found the back of the net after a deflected volley found its way past the Feyennord defence and goalkeeper.

The Democratic Party’s failure on the opioid epidemic Rachel Syme’s holiday gift guide A Revolution in How Robots Learn A future generation of robots will not be programmed to complete specific tasks. Instead, they will use A.I. to teach themselves. Every time a video would go viral showing a humanoid robot jumping, dancing, or doing some other remarkable physical activity, there was a feeling among the general public that our wildest science-fiction dreams were just moments from coming to life. But inside the field of robotics itself, developments were happening far more slowly than in other similar technological fields, and straightforward practical applications, such as making a cup of coffee, remained out of reach. “A hopelessness hung over the whole enterprise,” James Somers writes, in this week’s issue . But that is changing—fast. “The last two years have been a dramatically steeper progress curve,” Carolina Parada, the leader of the robotics team at Google DeepMind, tells Somers. “This is the year that people really realized that you can build general-purpose robots.” The key development is that robots will no longer need to be programmed; instead they will learn through artificial intelligence, and then share that knowledge widely. “Once one robot has learned how to tie shoes, all of them can do it,” Somers writes. “Imagine copying and pasting not just a recipe for an omelette but the very act of making it.” Read or listen to the story » The Lede Did the Opioid Epidemic Fuel Donald Trump’s Return to the White House?

NEW YORK — Eager to preserve President-elect Donald Trump's hush money conviction even as he returns to office, prosecutors suggested various ways forward — including one based on how some courts handle criminal cases when defendants die. In court papers made public Tuesday, the Manhattan district attorney's office proposed an array of options for keeping the historic conviction on the books. The proposals include freezing the case until Trump is out of office, or agreeing that any future sentence wouldn't include jail time. Another idea: closing the case with a notation that acknowledges his conviction but says that he was never sentenced and his appeal wasn't resolved because of presidential immunity. Former President Donald Trump appears in Manhattan criminal court May 30 during jury deliberations in his criminal hush money trial in New York. The last is adopted from what some states do when a criminal defendant dies after being convicted but before appeals are exhausted. It is unclear whether that option is viable under New York law, but prosecutors suggested that Judge Juan M. Merchan could innovate in what's already a unique case. "This remedy would prevent defendant from being burdened during his presidency by an ongoing criminal proceeding," prosecutors wrote. But at the same time, it wouldn't "precipitously discard" the "meaningful fact that defendant was indicted and found guilty by a jury of his peers." Expanding on a position they laid out last month, prosecutors acknowledged that "presidential immunity requires accommodation during a president's time in office," but they were adamant that the conviction should stand. They argued that Trump's impending return to the White House should not upend a jury's finding. Trump wants the case to be thrown out in light of his election. His communications director, Steven Cheung, called prosecutors' filing "a pathetic attempt to salvage the remains of an unconstitutional and politically motivated hoax." Trump has fought for months to reverse his conviction on 34 counts of falsifying business records. Prosecutors said he fudged the documents to conceal a $130,000 payment to porn actor Stormy Daniels to suppress her claim that they had sex a decade earlier. Former President Donald Trump returns to the courtroom May 30 at Manhattan Criminal Court in New York. He claims they didn’t and denies wrongdoing. Trump portrays the case as a political attack ginned up by District Attorney Alvin Bragg and other Democrats. Trump's legal team argues that letting the case continue would present unconstitutional "disruptions" to his upcoming presidential term. Trump's attorneys also cited President Joe Biden's recent pardon of his son Hunter Biden, who was convicted of tax and gun charges. Biden complained that his son was unfairly prosecuted for political reasons — and Trump's lawyers say he was, too. Trump's lawyers argued that the possibility of a jail sentence — even if it's after he leaves office — would affect his presidency. Prosecutors suggested Merchan could address that concern by agreeing not to put him behind bars. It's unclear how soon Merchan could decide what to do next with the case. He could grant Trump's request for dismissal, go with one of the suggestions from prosecutors, wait until a federal appeals court rules on Trump's parallel effort to get the case moved out of state court, or choose some other option. Trump, a Republican, takes office Jan. 20. Former President Donald Trump gestures May 31 as he leaves a news conference at Trump Tower in New York. He was scheduled for sentencing late last month. After Trump's Nov. 5 election win, Merchan halted proceedings and indefinitely postponed the former and future president's sentencing so the defense and prosecution could weigh in on the future of the case. Merchan also delayed a decision on Trump's prior bid to dismiss the case on immunity grounds. A dismissal would erase Trump's conviction, sparing him the cloud of a criminal record and possible prison sentence. Trump is the first former president to be convicted of a crime and the first convicted criminal to be elected to the office. The hush money case was the only one of Trump's four criminal indictments to go to trial. Since the election, special counsel Jack Smith ended his two federal cases, which pertained to Trump's efforts to overturn his 2020 election loss and allegations that he hoarded classified documents at his Mar-a-Lago estate. A separate state election interference case in Fulton County, Georgia, is largely on hold. Trump denies wrongdoing in each case. Get the latest in local public safety news with this weekly email.

ISLAMABAD (AP) — Pakistani security forces launched an operation Tuesday night to disperse supporters of imprisoned former Prime Minister Imran Khan who had gathered in the capital to demand his release from prison. The latest development came hours after thousands of Khan supporters, defying government warnings, broke through a barrier of shipping containers blocking off Islamabad and entered a high-security zone, where they clashed with security forces, facing tear gas shelling, mass detentions and gunfire. Tension has been high in Islamabad since Sunday when supporters of the former prime minister began a “long march” from the restive northwest to demand his release. Khan has been in a prison for over a year and faces more than 150 criminal cases that his party says are politically motivated. Khan’s wife, Bushra Bibi, led the protest, but she fled as police pushed back against demonstrators. Hundreds of Khan’s supporters are being arrested in the ongoing nighttime operation, and police are also seeking to arrest Bibi. Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi told reporters that the Red Zone, which houses government buildings and embassies, and the surrounding areas have been cleared. Leaders from Khan's Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf party, or PTI, have also fled the protest site. Earlier Tuesday, Pakistan’s army took control of D-Chowk, a large square in the Red Zone, where visiting Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko is staying. Since Monday, Naqvi had threatened that security forces would use live fire if protesters fired weapons at them. “We have now authorized the police to respond as necessary,” Naqvi said Tuesday while visiting the square. Before the operation began, protester Shahzor Ali said people had taken to the streets because Khan had called for them. “We will stay here until Khan joins us. He will decide what to do next,” Ali said. “If they fire bullets again, we will respond with bullets,” he said. Protester Fareeda Bibi, who is not related to Khan’s wife, said people have suffered greatly for the last two years. “We have really suffered for the last two years, whether it is economically, politically or socially. We have been ruined. I have not seen such a Pakistan in my life,” she said. Authorities have struggled to contain the protest-related violence. Six people, including four members of the security services, were killed when a vehicle rammed them on a street overnight into Tuesday. A police officer died in a separate incident. Dozens of Khan supporters beat a videographer covering the protest for The Associated Press and took his camera. He sustained head injuries and was treated in a hospital. By Tuesday afternoon, fresh waves of protesters made their way unopposed to their final destination in the Red Zone. Most demonstrators had the flag of Khan’s party around their shoulders or wore its tricolors on accessories. Naqvi said Khan’s party had rejected a government offer to rally on the outskirts of the city. Information Minister Atta Tarar warned there would be a severe government reaction to the violence. He said the government did not want Bushra Bibi to achieve her goal of freeing Khan. “She wants bodies falling to the ground. She wants bloodshed,” he said. The government says only the courts can order Khan’s release. He was ousted in 2022 through a no-confidence vote in Parliament. In a bid to foil the unrest, police have arrested more than 4,000 Khan supporters since Friday and suspended mobile and internet services in some parts of the country. Messaging platforms were also experiencing severe disruption in the capital. Khan’s party relies heavily on social media and uses messaging platforms such as WhatsApp to share information, including details of events. The X platform, which is banned in Pakistan, is no longer accessible, even with a VPN. Last Thursday, a court prohibited rallies in the capital and Naqvi said anyone violating the ban would be arrested. Travel between Islamabad and other cities has become nearly impossible because of shipping containers blocking the roads. All education institutions remain closed. Pakistan's Stock Exchange lost more than $1.7 billion Tuesday due to rising political tensions, according to economist Mohammed Sohail from Topline Securities. Associated Press writers Munir Ahmed in Islamabad and Asim Tanveer in Multan, Pakistan, contributed to this report.
Pelham has hiked its development charges for the first time since 2018, a move said to better align with the town’s growth and infrastructure needs. Developers will see an increase of 19.5 per cent in residential and non-residential charges — about 10 per cent lower than what was initially proposed. A new development charges bylaw was approved during a town council meeting last week. Development charges are one-time fees collected when developers receive a building permit in order to help pay for the cost of growth infrastructure such as roads, water and wastewater pipes, parks and firefighting services. Residential rates will increase to $34,999, up from $29,240 (effective Jan. 1, 2024). For non-residential units, rates will be about $16.35 per square foot, up from $13.47. The rates did not come without criticism from developers. Stephen Kaiser of Kaiser and Associates, participating virtually during the meeting, said the town’s background report supporting the rates is “fundamentally flawed and places a multitude of costs on the new homebuyer that should be borne by the existing ratepayers.” “The process to date in developing this bylaw has left a great deal to be desired,” he said, adding there was little consultation with local developers to find a solution that works for both sides. Ward 2 Coun. Brian Eckhardt asked what percentage would be fair. “I don’t really think that’s the game, so to speak,” replied Kaiser. “It’s what is fair, what’s our proportion as growth we should pay as new development.” Niagara Home Builders’ Association chief executive officer Chuck McShane urged council to defer the bylaw approval pending more dialogue, until charges are “equitable to all stakeholders, including the citizens of Pelham, the new purchaser and the industry.” “We know we have to pay DC charges ... but at the end of the day we just want what’s fair for all.” Mayor Marvin Junkin said staff went through the bylaw line-by-line with McShane to reduce the charges to their new level. However, McShane said, those numbers “need to be looked at to ensure they are not only fair for the town, but fair for the new home purchaser.” Town treasurer Teresa Quinlin-Murphy said that from 2018 to 2024, the cost of construction has “gone up significantly,” putting pressure on the town’s capital expenditures plan and the development charges (DC) study. “That’s the pressure we’re all having and that’s why the DC have gone up across all municipalities, not just ours,” she said. Ward 3 Coun. Shellee Niznik said residents expect good roads, working street lights and a rapid response from firefighters, and her own taxes have “increased greatly” about 35 per cent since the last time a DC rate chart was presented. “I really feel this is a balancing out of the fees.” Eckhardt said he struggles to understand how Pelham allocates development charges, with some of the charges placed on what appears to be old projects rather than new development. But he said he has “no qualms” about the work staff did in getting the percentage hike below 20. “You’re always doing a juggling act. The lower DC rates you have, it maybe promotes growth, and then you get tax revenue, but then we’re nailing taxpayers to put in infrastructure that should be being paid with new growth,” he said. Junkin defended the work of the background study and said he was happy with the numbers, as it is “what the town needs going forward.” Ward 1 Coun. Wayne Olson said the town has been working on its debt, and the new bylaw is reasonable, “but it doesn’t really fully take into account the future cost of growth we’re going to see ... I think this strikes a balance.”PHOENIX – Like many sports fans, Alex Kane struggled to understand the traditional moneyline odds system placed by sports bookmakers on events.
