As another winnable game slipped out of his hands, Aaron Rodgers sat pensively on the New York Jets' bench Monday night looking like he was contemplating life.
It didn’t appear he liked what he saw.
His Jets were about to be losers again — 23-20 to Buffalo — and thus fall to 2-4 on the season. They had already fired the coach, Robert Saleh. They had already changed play-callers. They had already talked about renewed effort and focus.
And yet, little had changed.
The lights were bright inside MetLife Stadium, but this felt like one of Rodgers' famed darkness retreats; his face conveying more regret than resolve.
And so it should be no surprise that by Tuesday morning the Jets had pulled the trigger on bringing in one of Rodgers' all-time favorite wide receivers, acquiring Devonte Adams from Las Vegas for a conditional third-round pick.
The move reunites the quarterback and pass-catcher — they played together for eight seasons (2014-2021) in Green Bay. They combined for 622 receptions, 7,590 yards and 69 touchdowns in regular season play.
Those were the glory days. Big scores and big wins. The Packers averaged 10 regular season victories during that period and won six playoff games to advance to the NFC championship game four different times.
Adams left for Vegas in 2022 and nothing worked quite like it did with the Packers. After 14 touchdowns his first season, he’s had just nine since. The Jets tried to trade for him last year but the Raiders wouldn’t budge. After just one touchdown in three games this year, Adams requested a trade.
Rodgers, meanwhile, headed to the Jets in 2023 and there has been little more than injury and disappointment. At age 41, there isn’t a lot of time for lost seasons or slow rebuilds. New York brought Rodgers in to win now.
They aren’t winning.
Maybe a recoupling will change everything. The Jets sure hope so. They are pretty much out of options, other than finally finding a way to get pass rusher Haason Reddick back into the fold. Reddick is more likely to be traded though.
Team owner Woody Johnson declared this team the most talented in 25 years. He used that as justification for firing Saleh after a 2-3 start to the season. Meanwhile, offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett (a perceived Rodgers’ confidant) was demoted from calling plays.
Yet, rather than lighting a fire of inspiration under the roster, the Jets looked like the same old mediocre, beat-themselves outfit on Monday.
There was a dropped touchdown. There were two field goal attempts hit uprights and crossbars. There were 11 penalties for 110 yards. New York converted just four of 12 third down attempts and went 1 for 4 in the red zone.
Not even a converted Hail Mary at the end of the first half could save them.
Rodgers seemed stunned that the game didn’t turn out better.
"We need to get going," Rodgers said on Monday. "This was a golden opportunity. Some games you win in the NFL, and some games you give away. This was a giveaway."
It was indicative of this entire Jets experiment for Rodgers. It began with much fanfare and the expectations of a late-career potential championship push in the spirit of Peyton Manning in Denver and Tom Brady in Tampa Bay.
Subscribe to Yahoo Sports NFL on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or wherever you listen.
Instead, New York is staring at a stretch this month that features games at 4-2 Pittsburgh and later hosting 5-1 Houston.
"It's frustrating," Rodgers said. "I'm here to win [these] games."
The season isn’t over, but it is trending in that direction. Hence the franchise pulling every early-season emergency cord it can.
Defensive coordinator Jeff Ulbrich is the interim coach and Todd Downing is calling plays. So now it’s all about the players.
Adams gives Rodgers a familiar face and weapon and bolsters a receiving corps that already features Garrett Wilson. The offense wasn’t bad on Monday — Rodgers threw for 294 yards and two touchdowns and Breece Hall ran for 113 yards while adding 56 receiving.
It still wasn't enough though. And for a team with Super Bowl aspirations, that isn't enough.
The third-round pick (which could become a second if it works out) is a significant but not daunting price. What other options were there for the Jets? Rodgers is by far their most accomplished quarterback in decades and this was an all-in season.
Might as well make the most of it while something can still be made.

Dubai, UAE, Oct. 15, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Comet Space, an international game development company, publisher, and investor, proudly launches its flagship Web3 game, Poomb Creatures, a groundbreaking project combining Web2 and Web3 technologies with innovative Tap-to-Earn 2.0 mechanics.
Poomb Creatures: The New Standard in Blockchain Gaming
Poomb Creatures is more than a game—it’s an evolving ecosystem, blending the best of casual gaming with blockchain technology. With fully secured funding, Poomb Creatures promises a stable and reliable experience for players, differentiating itself from typical blockchain games that rely heavily on market volatility.
Bridging Web2 and Web3 with Seamless Integration
One of the core strengths of Poomb Creatures is its Web2 and Web3 integration, allowing players to log in via email or social media, participate in the gaming world without needing to interact directly with cryptocurrency, yet still have the option to earn, mint NFTs, and trade through the game’s advanced blockchain infrastructure.
Tap-to-Earn 2.0 and the Physical Toy Revolution
Poomb Creatures introduces the world’s first Tap-to-Earn 2.0 system through its Mining Machine, a physical toy that brings real-world value into gameplay. This innovative device allows users to farm COGA tokens—the in-game currency—by tapping their toy at scheduled intervals. Limited to 600 units, the Poomb Mining Machine is set to redefine gaming, offering unique mining opportunities tied to real-world assets. Pre-orders are expected in Q4 2024, with no future restocks planned.
From Pre-Launch to Global Success
The game launched with a highly successful Telegram Pre-Launch, rewarding early users with 150,000 COGA tokens. Since then, the Poomb Creatures Telegram Clicker Game (link) has gained significant traction, allowing players to earn additional tokens by completing tasks like inviting friends and following the project’s social channels.
Coming Soon to App Store and Google Play
Poomb Creatures will soon be available on both iOS and Android platforms, with the full launch set for December 2024. Players will enjoy AI-powered Tamagotchi-style pets, multiple mini-games (including PvP runners and battles), and an NFT marketplace, offering extensive opportunities for engagement and rewards.
AI Integration in Poomb Creatures
The game features two core AI advancements:
- Talking Poomb Pet, which helps onboard new users through interactive character dialogue.
- Poomb School, a built-in tutorial for understanding cryptocurrency, designed to help players maximize their in-game earnings and better navigate the blockchain world.
COGA Token: The Core of the Ecosystem
The COGA token serves as the backbone of Poomb Creatures and other Comet Space projects (link). Built on the TON and Solana blockchains, it offers high scalability, ensuring long-term stability for players and investors.
Upcoming Token Presales
Three stages of token presales are planned: two private rounds followed by a public sale on Launchpad. COGA token listings on major exchanges are set to roll out by Q1 2025, creating opportunities for early investors to be part of the ecosystem’s rapid growth.
NFT Marketplace and Mining Opportunities
Players can engage in NFT trading, purchase in-game assets, and exchange COGA tokens for in-game currency. The NFT marketplace is set to launch in Q1 2025. The Poomb Mining Machine offers a unique mining experience, allowing users to mine COGA tokens while playing the game.
About Comet Space

When Do Idaho Clocks “Fall Back” in 2024? Sooner Than You Think
Whether you’d like to admit it or not, the days are getting shorter! We hate to be the ones to deliver the PSA, but in Boise…the sun won’t set after 7 p.m. until March 9, 2025.
Don’t shoot the messenger, but Boise is losing sunlight at a rate of almost three minutes a day. By the time your little ghouls and goblins are trick-or-treating on Halloween, sunset will be at 6:36 p.m. Of course, all of this is leading up to the inevitable…the twice-a-year ritual of adjusting our clocks by one hour to accommodate the beginning or end of Daylight Saving Time.
What Would Idaho Look Like If We STOPPED Changing the Clocks?
This is actually something that the state legislature has discussed…well, for the part of the state that’s in the Pacific Time Zone. In 2019, our state lawmakers actually approved a measure to make daylight saving time permanent in that part of the state. However, the way it was written the change would only happen if Washington State decided to do the same.
It likely won’t happen because the Evergreen State is trying to do the opposite because it would take an actual act of (federal) congress in order to make Daylight Saving Time permanent. However, states can decide to stay on standard time without a change in federal law. That’s how Hawaii and Arizona get out of switching their clocks twice a year.
READ MORE: Idaho's First Significant Snow Dates Revealed for Fall 2024
But let’s play a game of what if? A website called Save Standard Time has a calculator that shows you how many days you’d drive to work or school before sunrise every year. According to data from the US Census Bureau, 29% of Idahoans are making their morning commutes between 7-7:59 a.m.
Using 7 a.m. as the time you begin your commute, here’s a look at how many days you’d be driving in the dark in each scenario. For those of us with astigmatism in one or both eyes, trust us when we say this stuff matters!
When Will Daylight Saving Time End in Idaho?
Like we mentioned, Idaho hasn’t been able to officially take action to save us from switching the clocks twice a year, so we’ll be doing it again soon. This year, we’ll set our clocks back one hour on Sunday, November 3 at 2 a.m. Bring on the darkness (they said, sarcastically.)

Voltalia strengthens its solar offering for farmers
Voltalia (Euronext Paris, code ISIN: FR0011995588), an international player in renewable energies, announces that its subsidiary Helexia has acquired 28 megawatts of agricultural photovoltaic hangars in France. Terravene, a Voltalia subsidiary dedicated to agricultural land portage, now contributes to the range of services offered to farmers
Helexia has acquired 202 solar roofs on farm buildings. They are all in operation and benefit from 20-year electricity sales contracts.
Together, Voltalia and its subsidiaries Helexia and Terravene are deploying complementary services for farmers:
Agrivoltaics and eco-grazing
- In March 2021, Voltalia commissioned its first agrivoltaic project, Cabanon1, which combines market garden production and photovoltaic electricity generation on the same plot of land, with dynamic shades that protect the crop from extreme weather conditions (excess sun, hail).
- Since 2023, Terravene, a dedicated subsidiary of Voltalia, has developed a land portage offer to support the installation of young farmers. This solution, financed by the installation of an agrivoltaic park on part of the land, is a response to the challenges of ensuring the long-term future of local farms and the renewal of generations.
- After deploying projects combining solar production and sheep eco-grazing, Voltalia has developed agrivoltaic solutions for sheep and cattle farming. In September 2024, Voltalia commissioned the Poisy2 demonstrator, designed to measure and analyze the precise effects of photovoltaic installations on cattle farming, particularly in terms of animal welfare, daily animal behavior and the quality and quantity of forage production.
Solar roofs on farm buildings
- Since March 2022, Helexia has been offering agricultural hangars solutions with photovoltaic rooftops. These hangars mainly house agricultural machinery, livestock or crops.
- Voltalia offers individual self-consumption solar roofs that farmers are interested in for their homes.
Voltalia, Helexia and Terravene are now cooperating on a joint offering: 1,2,3 Soleil3. The solar and agricultural expertise of these three players is complementary. They enable us to offer solutions tailored to the needs of farmers. The 1,2,3 Soleil offer provides concrete answers to the issues of sustaining and developing farms and the challenges of generational renewal, while enabling the production of renewable electricity.
Voltalia's and Helexia's photovoltaic projects developed in conjunction with agricultural activities, in particular agrivoltaics and agricultural photovoltaic hangars, total a capacity of over 190 megawatts, and are expanding rapidly: x2.5 since the beginning of 2023. This French portfolio will continue to grow, with sites currently under development representing a potential capacity of over one gigawatt.
“The acquisition of these new agricultural photovoltaic hangars once again demonstrates our commitment to contributing to the energy transition by offering tailored solutions for farmers, in addition to our offer for industrial and commercial customers”, says Benjamin Simonis, Chief Executive Officer of Helexia Group.
“By combining the strengths of Helexia, Terravene and Voltalia, we provide the agricultural sector with innovative, sustainable energy solutions that combine with agricultural production over the very long term”, adds Sébastien Clerc, Chief Executive Officer of Voltalia.
Next on the agenda: Q3 2024 Turnover, October 23, 2024 (after close of trading)
About Voltalia (www.voltalia.com)
Voltalia is an international player in renewable energies. The Group produces and sells electricity from its wind, solar, hydro, biomass and storage facilities. It has 3.1 GW of capacity in operation and under construction, and a portfolio of projects under development with a total capacity of 17.2 GW.

KOLKATA: The Calcutta High Court on Tuesday set aside prohibitory orders imposed in areas adjacent to the Durga Puja Carnival venue on Red Road in the city.
The orders under Section 163 of BNSS were imposed on some roads and areas near the Red Road where the state-organised 'Puja Carnival' is scheduled to be held on Tuesday evening, amidst calls for 'Droha' (protest) carnival on nearby Rani Rashmoni Road in central Kolkata by junior doctors agitating over the RG Kar incident.
On a request by junior doctors challenging the imposition of the prohibitory order, Justice Ravi Krishan Kapur set aside the restrictions imposed by the state government.
Meanwhile, junior doctors gheraoed DC Central and chanted "Go back" at them. The Droher Carnival has seen lakhs of people attending the program and thanked the Court for permitting them.
On the other hand, the puja carnival has been organised and around 897 puja pandals from the state participated in the carnival. Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee inaugurated the carnival.
Police have arrested doctor of KMC, Dr Tapobrata Roy, at the puja carnival for wearing a badge of justice for RG Kar victim.
Meanwhile, BJP organised a rally from College Square to Esplanade under the leadership of the Leader of Opposition in the West Bengal Assembly, Suvendu Adhikari, with a call for boycotting the carnival.
"It will be without any party flags, and we request people to join us as it is being organised for the safety and security of women in the state," Adhikari said.
Junior doctors who are holding a hunger strike over the rape and murder of the trainee doctor at RG Kar Hospital have announced a peaceful protest by forming human bonds in the areas adjacent to Red Road.
The fast unto death by junior doctors to press for their demands in the wake of the RG Kar hospital incident entered its 10th day on Monday, even as the health condition of two more medics deteriorated, one of whom has been hospitalised, officials said.
Currently, seven doctors are on a 'fast-unto-death', including a junior medic from the North Bengal Medical College's ENT department, who joined the strike on Monday.
Two new junior doctors joined the hunger strike and one of the junior doctors of North Bengal Medical College and Hospital fell due to the fasting.
The hunger strike, which began on October 5, followed nearly 50 days of 'cease work' in two phases. Their agitation started after the trainee doctor was raped and murdered inside state-run RG Kar Medical College and Hospital on August 9.

After being active for the first time this season against the Las Vegas Raiders and being the No. 2 quarterback behind Justin Fields, veteran quarterback Russell Wilson remains QB1 on the Pittsburgh Steelers’ depth chart ahead of their Week 7 Sunday Night Football matchup against the New York Jets.
wr_steelers_Oct_20_2024_roster-depth-chart_4642908Last week, Wilson returned to practice in a full capacity for the first time all season. Previously, Wilson was limited while recovering from his calf injury, which knocked him from the lineup just two days before the season opener against the Atlanta Falcons.
Despite being active after practicing in full all week leading up to the road matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders, Russell Wilson was the QB2 behind Fields. The Steelers went on to win the game, 32-13, with Fields rushing for two touchdowns.
Though the Steelers won in convincing fashion, Fields competed just 14-of-24 passes for 145 yards against the Raiders. Fields added 59 rushing yards and two touchdowns, which lifted the offense, but he largely struggled with accuracy as a passer, missing some throws for the second week in a row.
Previously, Wilson stated in Week 5 to the Sunday Night Football crew against the Dallas Cowboys that he was eyeing Week 7 against the Jets for his return to the starting lineup. He’s fully healthy, so there will be a decision that needs to be made from head coach Mike Tomlin, which could come shortly during his weekly press conference, regarding the team’s starting quarterback job.
Coming into the season, the Steelers named Russell Wilson their starting quarterback on Aug. 28, and then later named him a team captain in his first season with the franchise after two years in Denver. It marked the 12th straight year Wilson was named a captain in the NFL, including his time in Seattle and Denver.
Now healthy, Wilson is eager to get back onto the field and get a shot at playing after signing with the Steelers on a one-year deal in free agency. Fields has taken the opportunity and run with it, though, helping pilot the Steelers to a 4-2 record on the season.

FROM season 3 episode 5 promo: Family reunion incoming?
As we prepare to see FROM season 3 episode 5 on MGM+ this weekend, are we poised to get the most emotional story yet? Well, let’s just say that based on the promo, it is very-much possible that we could have something we’ve wanted ever since the start of the season.
By this, we mean mostly the opportunity to see a reunion between Victor and his father Henry — but will it go according to plan? That is something to wonder.
SUBSCRIBE to Matt & Jess on YouTube for new FROM videos every week!
The promo, alas, does not feature the two characters actually reuniting and yet, it does present us with a certain measure of hope that it could happen. The biggest problem may be Victor himself, who we easily envision being in denial and struggling to grasp the idea that him being there is real. This is someone who has endured more suffering than almost anyone and it is easy to understand why he would have a hard time wrapping his head around these changes — even though he recognized that things were changing around the community.
So what else does the preview tell us? Well, it makes sense that with Tabitha back in town, she is going to do whatever she can to try and help everyone leave. Since it happened to her previously, can’t everyone get out now? Is it as simple as visiting the tree? The truthful thing to remember here is that the rules of FROM may be grounded in some key tenets, but you could also view them as somewhat fluid at the same time. There may be ways for characters to get out, but it may not be the same for every one. It feels like no matter the time or place, this town is going to exploit all your worst fears…
Related – Be sure to get some more news on FROM right now, including more details on what’s ahead
What do you most want to see moving into FROM season 3 episode 5?
Be sure to share right now in the attached comments! Once you do just that, remember to also come back for some other updates.

3 Idaho Counties Make ‘Worst in America’ List for DUIs
It’s a habit we’re not exactly proud to have, but every Sunday over brunch one of the first things we do is pull up Ada Sheriff and count how many DUIs happened over the weekend.
In a day and age where Uber and Lyft are so accessible, we’re stunned at how many people are still making the dangerous decision to get behind the wheel after enjoying too many adult beverages.
READ MORE: The 15 Drunkest Counties in the Entire State of Idaho Revealed for 2024
From Friday, October 11, 2024 through Sunday, October 13, 2024 there we counted 17 “driving under the influence arrest.” Five of those people are facing their second offense. Two of them were dumb enough to get behind the wheel and drink while driving.
Sobering Statistics for Idaho Drivers
Earlier this year, Forbes released a list of the worst states for drunk driving. While Idaho didn’t land itself in the Top 10, we don’t have any reason to celebrate. We were the first ones out, ranking #11.
According to the most recent traffic statistics available from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, alcohol-impairment was a factor in about 32% of the fatal traffic accidents in Idaho in 2022. 52 of those accidents involved motorists with a BAC of .15, which is nearly double the legal limit of .08.
What’s even more eye opening is the results of a study put together by a Florida-based law group. They took a deeper dive into the NHTSA data from 2022 to determine which individual counties in America were the worst for DUI fatalities. Not only did three Idaho counties find themselves in “The 21 Worst Counties for DUI Fatalities in America,” one of them tied for #1.
Curious which counties made the list? Keep reading to find out. It shouldn’t surprise you that all three of the counties also made the list of the 15 Drunkest Counties in Idaho.

(MENAFN- IANS) Gandhinagar, Oct 15 (IANS) Gujarat government distributed over Rs 1,100 crore in aid to 5,500 eligible industrial units and issued letters of intent for quarry leases valued at Rs 699 crore.
Speaking at the Industrial Entrepreneurship Day event held at Mahatma Mandir in Gandhinagar, Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel highlighted: "Prime Minister Narendra Modi's vision during his tenure as Gujarat's Chief Minister when he introduced the Five-F Formula (Farm to Fiber, Fiber to Fabric, Fabric to Fashion, and fashion to Foreign) under the 2012 Textile Policy, positioning Gujarat as a leader in the sector. "
This policy attracted Rs 35,000 crore in investments, created over 2.5 lakh jobs, and established a robust textile ecosystem with more than 35 lakh spindles.
The event, which saw the participation of top officials, including the Chief Secretary, industry leaders, and entrepreneurs, marked another milestone in Gujarat's industrial development journey.
"The new Textile Policy 2024 aims further to bolster Gujarat's status as a textile hub, focusing on key areas such as garments, apparel, and technical textiles. The policy also emphasises women's empowerment through self-help groups (SHGs) in rural and urban areas, providing increased employment opportunities and income growth," he said.
The Chief Minister also announced infrastructure upgrades worth Rs 418 crore, including water supply and road improvements in industrial zones, and inaugurated projects worth Rs 146 crore.
He projected that the new policy would attract approximately Rs 30,000 crore in investments and create significant job opportunities, particularly for young people, women, and cotton farmers.
Industry Minister Balvantsinh Rajput and Minister of State Harsh Sanghavi praised the government's initiatives, noting that Gujarat has become an industrial growth model.
With Gujarat contributing 18 per cent to the nation's industrial production and 33 per cent to exports in 2022-23, Rajput stated that the state plays a vital role in India's economic progress.

NEW DELHI: Rejecting the Congress’ allegations after the Haryana assembly poll results, Chief Election Commissioner Rajiv Kumar on Tuesday said after the EVM tampering row, questions are being raised on the strength of battery charge and wondered what next accusation would come.
Addressing a press conference here to announce the poll schedule for Jharkhand and Maharashtra assemblies, Kumar, while referring to the allegations of the Congress of tampering of EVMs in some Haryana seats where machines with varying battery strength gave out different results, said earlier allegations of hacking were made “but this has come up for the first time”.
“Now we are thinking what will come next, we can’t fathom. But certainly something new will come up,” he added. He asserted that around six days prior to the poll day, EVMs are commissioned and election symbols of candidates are loaded and a new battery is installed, which has the signatures of candidates or their authorised agents.
“Leave alone EVM, even batteries (installed) have signatures of candidates. Even we were not aware (of this rule) as it was framed long back. Now it is helping us,” the CEC said responding to a series of questions on the reliability of the machines and concerns flagged on battery.
Kumar also said that people ask if pagers can be used to blow up people in some countries, why can’t EVMs be hacked? “Pagers are connected (to the network), EVMs are not,” he asserted.
Pagers sold to Hezbollah and Lebanese officials had exploded recently, triggering claims that their batteries were rigged with explosives.
Giving details of the Complaints the Commission has received so far after the assembly elections in Haryana and Jammu & Kashmir, Kumar said, 20 such representations have been submitted. “We will give detailed responses to each of the complaints and put our response in public domain,” he said, adding that the panel would come out with detailed ‘FAQs’ to satisfy all stakeholders.
Last week, Congress leaders had said complaints had been received from Hisar, Mahendragarh and Panipat that there were electronic voting machines with 99 per cent battery on which the BJP won while units with 60-70 per cent battery saw the Congress win.
Meanwhile, the CEC also said that exit polls create expectations that cannot always be met, and before getting hopes up, one should look into the specifics of the exit poll- like where it was held and what was the sample size. This, he said, is an occasion where the media must introspect and correct itself.
“We don’t govern exit polls - but there is a need to introspect - what was the sample size etc. There are bodies that self-regulate. Time has come that the concerned bodies will do some self-regulation,” the CEC noted, while pointing that the “gap between expectation and reality can lead to frustration”, as one cannot expect the results trends to match the exit polls.

While the Pittsburgh Steelers missed out on WR Davante Adams, they could look to his new team for receiver help. Fox Sports NFL insider Jordan Schultz reported that the New York Jets are making WR Mike Williams available for trade, and Pittsburgh had interest in the receiver this offseason.
With Adams now in the fold, the Jets simply have too many receivers, and Williams, who signed a one-year deal with New York this offseason, looks to be the odd man out. Williams was supposed to have a visit with the Steelers this offseason but signed with the Jets before that visit happened, and given the team’s prior interest and need at receiver, they look to be a strong candidate to potentially make a move for Williams.
Of course, the Steelers are set to play the Jets this week, and New York may not want to deal him to their next opponent, so it might not be something that happens in the next few days. Still, the Jets will likely take the best package for Williams, and if Pittsburgh is willing to give New York what they want, he could wind up in Pittsburgh.
The other teams that were reported to be in on Adams were the New Orleans Saints and Buffalo Bills, as well as the Baltimore Ravens. With the Bills being a division rival, it would be a surprise if the Jets had interest in sending him there, but the Kansas City Chiefs are also in the receiver market. So once again, there should be no shortage of suitors for Williams.
So far this season, Williams has just 10 receptions for 145 yards, and didn’t have a reception on three targets in New York’s Week 6 loss to the Bills. His best game came in Week 4, when he had four receptions for 67 yards against the Denver Broncos. While Williams isn’t having a great season, he has a history of success with the Los Angeles Chargers. He’s posted two 1,000-plus-yard seasons during his eight-year career, which has been plagued at times by injuries.
He would slot in on the outside in Pittsburgh, and with the Steelers at 4-2 and looking to jumpstart their offense, Williams is a name worth watching over the coming weeks ahead of the November 5 trade deadline.

NCIS: Origins season 1 episode 3: Will Mark Harmon reappear?
Is there a chance that Mark Harmon could actually appear again on NCIS: Origins as Gibbs in the present? In the past, he is the narrator; yet, we got a small treat courtesy of seeing him in the present, sporting a similar hat that he had back when he departed for Alaska.
So what are the chances that we could see more of Harmon on-screen? Nothing may be officially confirmed at the moment, but never say never.
Speaking to TV Insider on this very subject, David J. North made it clear that he and fellow co-showrunner Gina Lucita Monreal are open to the possibility:
Gina and I have a lot of private discussions, and obviously Mark is first and foremost with all of that. We’re leaving any possibilities open.
At the very least, we’re happy about the idea that there is a reason why we are getting this particular story about Gibbs’ past — and it may not actually be that much about him. Based on what we saw within the first two episodes, this may be as much as anything about Lala Dominguez, who he worked with back when NCIS was just NIS. This is not a character he has opened up about to anyone and with that, something must have happened that he buried these memories away. For at least the time being, this does give us something to wonder about — and also, we tend to think that it could inspire something more with Harmon in the present.
So long as the story is right, we at least do feel hopeful that the door is open for Harmon to return. It may just take a little bit of patience and for all subsequent appearances, we do hope that they turn out to be a little bit more of a surprise.

Alex Murdaugh settles wrongful death lawsuit that sparked his fall
Alex Murdaugh has settled a wrongful death lawsuit brought by the family of a teen killed in a boat crash involving Murdaugh's youngest son
COLUMBIA, S.C. -- Alex Murdaugh has settled a lawsuit brought by the family of a teen killed in a boat crash involving Murdaugh's youngest son that prosecutors said provoked the disgraced South Carolina attorney to later kill his wife and their son who wrecked the boat.
The agreement by an insurer to pay the $500,000 policy Alex Murdaugh had on the boat ends the wrongful death suit that ultimately pried open Murdaugh's finances and laid bare his schemes to steal millions from his clients and his law firm.
The family of 19-year-old Mallory Beach sued the Murdaugh family and others after authorities said the boat Paul Murdaugh was driving crashed into a Beaufort County bridge in February 2019. Beach was killed and several others were injured.
Paul Murdaugh, who was 19 at the time of the crash, was charged with felony boating under the influence. Investigators said he had a blood alcohol level over 0.28% — more than three times the legal limit.
Beach's family already received more than $15 million from a settlement with the Parker’s Kitchen chain of convenience stores and others, as well as lawsuits with a family that held an oyster roast the group on the boat attended, a bar that served Paul Murdaugh liquor just before the crash, and Paul Murdaugh's older brother, Buster, whose ID he used to buy the beer.
A snag with the insurer of the boat, Progressive, prevented the entire case from being settled last summer. Progressive wouldn't pay until Alex Murdaugh was dropped as a defendant in the Beach family's lawsuit, according to court records.
Once special receivers assured all Murdaugh's assets were paid out, Beach's family agreed to end the case and the insurer paid the $500,000, Judge Daniel Hall wrote in an order filed Monday.
Court records indicate the other passengers on the boat who were injured have also settled their lawsuits against Murdaugh and others involved in the crash.
Alex Murdaugh, 56, is serving life without parole for the June 2021 shooting deaths of his wife, Maggie, and son Paul at their Colleton County home. He has denied killing them and is appealing his murder convictions.
But even if his murder convictions are overturned, he will remain in prison. Murdaugh admitted stealing around $12 million from his family's law firm and from clients including a man who became a quadriplegic after a crash and from a trust fund intended for children whose parents were killed in a wreck. He was sentenced to 40 years in federal prison.
Prosecutors said one of the last things Murdaugh did before heading home the night of the killings was work on a financial statement he would likely have to present at a court hearing for the Beach lawsuit scheduled three days later.
Murdaugh feared an investigation into his statement would show he stole millions from clients and his law firm, prosecutors said, and the killings were a sinister, methodical plan to buy time to straighten out his finances and derail the wrongful death suit over the boat crash.
The lawsuit, which became known in the true crime world as the “Boat Case,” showed both his family's longtime influence over Hampton County where for decades they controlled much of the criminal and civil courts and cracks in their control of their rural empire.
Nurses at the hospital where the injured teens were taken said Paul Murdaugh and his father tried to talk to them alone in the emergency room. One teen said it appeared the family was trying to convince them to say someone other than Paul Murdaugh was driving the boat.
Beach's lawyer Mark Tinsley testified at Alex Murdaugh's murder trial that he wanted him to pay $10 million, and Murdaugh’s lawyer said he was broke and might be able to scrape together $1 million.
Tinsley said that didn’t make sense with Murdaugh’s reputation and outward signs of wealth and asked for records of all of Murdaugh’s finances for the lawsuit hearing, which was postponed following the killings.
Alex Murdaugh killed his son Paul with two shotgun blasts and his 52-year-old wife, Maggie, with four or five rifle shots outside their home, authorities said.
Alex Murdaugh said he called 911 after finding the bodies following a brief visit to see his ailing mother.
He told investigators who arrived that he wondered if the anger toward his son over the boat crash led to the killings.

Minister for Dairy Development Raja Kannappan on Tuesday directed Aavin staff to ensure that genuine customers get enough milk.
Speaking after interacting with customers at various Aavin parlours in the city, the Minister said staff should ensure that packets were given to all. The milk major had sold an additional of 1.20 lakh litres in the city on Tuesday. The usual quantum of sale was 14.50 lakh litres per day. For Wednesday, one lakh litre of milk are being brought in from other districts to tide over the additional demand.
Mr. Raja Kannappan said eight of Aavin’s parlours at Anna Nagar, Sholinganallur, Ambattur, Vannandurai, Virugambakkam, CP Ramaswamy Salai, and Mylapore will remain open 24 hours to meet the requirement of milk from consumers.

Oregon coaches exploited a loophole in the rulebook and it could result in in-season action from the NCAA.
With 10 seconds left in the Ducks' win over Ohio State on Saturday, the Buckeyes were driving to get into range for what would have been a game-winning field goal when Oregon called a timeout. After the stoppage, the Ducks sent 12 defenders onto the field for a third-down play that resulted in an incomplete pass and left Ohio State with just six seconds on the clock.
Flagged for illegal participation, Oregon essentially traded having an extra defensive back on an obvious passing down for a five-yard penalty that burned four seconds off the clock — a savvy move that is now garnering scrutiny.
Steve Shaw, the NCAA secretary rules editor, told Yahoo Sports on Tuesday that the NCAA Football Playing Rules Committee is actively “engaged” in examining the play for possible action. The Big Ten officiating crew handled the play appropriately, Shaw said, but the rules committee is discussing a way to address the play.
In the past, the rules committee has responded to such “fair play” incidents with interpretation bulletins released during a season. The bulletins are often meant to be a directive for officials in games in the future.
“We’ve had good dialogue on this play,” Shaw told Yahoo Sports. “We’ve recognized the way it played out.”
Mid-season rules interpretations are not common but they have happened in the past for similar plays that violate a rules committee component — that a penalty should not benefit the team penalized. The goal of any interpretation is to discourage coaches from further exploiting the rules, which can only be changed during a longer off-season process.
To discourage the action in the Oregon-Ohio State game, any interpretation would likely direct officials to return the game clock to its original time. Shaw declined to comment on any specifics.
In an interview on Monday, a grinning Oregon coach Dan Lanning seemed to acknowledge that coaches intentionally inserted a 12th player — a defensive back — to assist in an obvious passing down.
“We spend an inordinate amount of time on situations, and there are some situations that don't show up very often in college football,” he said, “but this is one that obviously we have worked on. So you can see the result.”

Dave Grohl is 'going to therapy to save marriage' amid secret baby scandal
Dave Grohl is reportedly 'going to therapy' in a bid to save his marriage, just a month after dropping the bombshell that he secretly fathered a love child.
Grohl - who was spotted still without his wedding ring in Los Angeles on Monday - is said to be trying everything he can to make things right.
The 55-year-old Foo Fighters frontman, whose 'last-ditch' effort to win back wife Jordyn Blum was recently revealed, appeared somber as he carried an Amazon box up to a home on a quiet, tree-lined street.
To try and make things right, an insider claims to InTouch that Grohl is 'offering up phone text messages and constantly apologizing and going to therapy.'
Adding: 'He's trying to be a good dad but at the same time it's frustrating and he doesn’t understand that these things can take months, even years to fix.'

For his low-key appearance, Grohl sported a casual ensemble—donning a black short-sleeved printed shirt, green shorts, and black sneakers.
He topped off the look with a navy baseball cap and glasses, adding to his laid-back vibe.
The sighting follows news that his band is expected to go on hiatus, with Grohl reportedly taking time to rebuild trust within his family in the wake of the scandal.
The Nirvana founder shocked fans in September when he confessed to his infidelity in a bombshell Instagram post.
Sources say the confession was a 'final effort' to save his 21-year marriage to Blum, 48, with whom he shares three daughters, after she reportedly gave him an ultimatum.
Now, Grohl is said to be focusing all his energy on mending the relationship, making an effort to be present for Jordyn and support her in the daily aspects of their life together.
'He thinks the marriage is salvageable so why not try to fix it?' an insider told the DailyMail.com exclusively.
They said Blum, who admitted to not feeling like she hasn't been his 'number one' in years, gave the rocker a final chance to try and repair their relationship.
'She gave him an ultimatum to figure it out and he wants to regain her trust,' the source continued.
'He has to focus on her, that will be his best chance at getting back to what they had. Dave is focusing on her needs.'
The source added the Grohl initially chose to reveal his extramarital affair, with the intention of staying with Blum.
The 55-year-old Foo Fighters frontman, whose 'last-ditch' effort to win back wife Jordyn Blum was recently revealed, appeared somber as he carried an Amazon box up to a home on a quiet, tree-lined street

'Revealing [his affair and baby] in the first place was his last-ditch effort to save the marriage, because Jordyn knew about it well before the world found out,' they explained.
'He would rather remain married.'
Blum reportedly asked her musician husband to put a pause on recording new music and touring so he can focus on his personal life.
Foo Fighters cancelled their set at Soundside Music Festival in Bridgeport, Connecticut, in late September in the wake of the scandal.

Foo Fighters cancelled their set at Soundside Music Festival in Bridgeport, Connecticut, last weekend in the wake of the scandal.
'He can always go back to it if they get better,' the insider said. 'She hasn't felt like she has been number one for a long time.'
Grohl announced in a statement on September 10 that he had welcomed a daughter while vowing to try to 'regain [the] trust' of his wife and their three daughters.
'I've recently become the father of a new baby daughter, born outside of my marriage,' Grohl announced to his 1.4 million followers on Instagram. 'I plan to be a loving and supportive parent to her.
'I love my wife and my children, and I am doing everything I can to regain their trust and earn their forgiveness. We're grateful for your consideration toward all the children involved, as we move forward together.'
The couple share three daughters (L-R) Harper, 15, Ophelia, 10, and Violet, 18 (pictured at the Grammy Awards in 2023)
The Foo Fighters front man announced he had fathered a secret love a child - a baby girl - outside of his marriage in a shocking Instagram statement in September
DailyMail.com previously revealed how in the months leading up to the announcement, a ‘jealous’ Grohl had been grilling Blum on her relationship with her ‘hot’ tennis coach, Christopher Crabb, 54, in what insiders claimed was an attempt to detract from his own indiscretions.
Grohl and Blum met in 2001 and have been married since 2003.
The couple share three daughters: Violet, 18; Harper, 15; and Ophelia, 10.
Blum has been consoled by her close friend Kate Hudson and has had a multi-million dollar offer from a publisher for a tell-all book about her life with the former Nirvana drummer.

More than 25 nonprofits from throughout the Santa Clarita Valley gathered at College of the Canyons’ honor grove, in front of the college’s Intercultural Center, for the Non-Profit Community Resource Fair on Tuesday.
In a collaboration with the COC Center for Civic and Community Engagement and COC’s Golden Z Club, students on campus could learn about the programs in the valley that help provide resources for the community.
Golden Z clubs, which are formed on college campuses through Zonta International, focus on providing young “people in [the] community with the tools, information and guidance they need to impact the world around them,” according to a pamphlet passed out during the event.
Tara Takhar, a first-year member of the Golden Z Club, discussed the club’s incentive, as well as structuring the tables with one of the United Nations’ 17 Sustainable Development Goals.
“Through Golden Z, we outreach to women and children, and we get the support that they need and everything else. We do this every year. We bring all the nonprofits in, set up their booths and we connect them to the 17 sustainable goals of the U.N.,” Takhar said. “We took the nonprofits that are already existing in the Santa Clarita area, and we’ve asked them to pick which one of these 17 goals their cause resonates with.”
Among the goals included are: “no poverty,” “zero hunger,” “gender equality,” “affordable and clean energy” and “peace, justice and strong institutions.”
According to Takhar, the most prevalent of the goals among the nonprofits are “good health and well-being” and “quality education.”
“The support [today] has been amazing, the response from people has all been positive. In my experience, everyone’s been very friendly and super interested in what we all have to offer,” Takhar said.
Among the booths was the Los Angeles County registrar-recorder/county clerk table, with employee Rebecca Evangelista seeking out election workers for the upcoming election.
Evangelista discussed the overall positive response in conversations with students.
“Some people are interested, some don’t have time. But it’s nice to be out here and spread awareness to students and young voters, especially since now a lot of people are now registered to vote,” Evangelista said. “We encourage a lot of people to go out there and vote at the same time. Help us with our democracy.”

*AtlantaFalcons.com contributing writer Daniel Cox takes a day-after look at the Falcons' 17-14 loss to the Saints on Monday night. It was just their third loss of the season, and while disappointing, as Mike Smith said, 15 other teams would gladly take the position the Falcons find themselves in. *
FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. —Falcons head coach Mike Smith has a reputation for being a pragmatic thinker when it comes to the game of football.
This season, he's also earned a reputation as a bit of a gambler, going for it on fourth down in some crucial situations. He's been right much more than he's been wrong, his choices paying off at an 85 percent clip (11-of-13), best in the NFL.
Monday's night game came down to the wire and another situation when Smith had to put on his poker face presented itself.
Down 17-14 very late in the fourth quarter, the offense stalled and the choice had to be made to go for it on fourth-and-6 or punt it back to Drew Brees and the Saints' offense.
Although Smith appears to be a gambler, his decisions usually come from hours of preparation and consideration of situational scenarios. The gamble he made was just as big as the one many thought he should have made, going for it on fourth down 40 yards away from the wrong end zone.
"Definitely thought it was the right thing to do," Smith after the game. "It was fourth down and 6 with the ball out their 38, 39-yard line maybe even a little bit further out. But on fourth-and-6, we felt like the way that we'd been playing defensively and we had two timeouts and we hopefully could wrap one around the two-minute warning. Unfortunately, we didn't get it done there at the end."
The Falcons gave up two first downs and that was the ball game, but Smith had the right idea. Before a go-ahead score in the fourth quarter, Atlanta's defense held the Saints scoreless on six straight possessions.
Ultimately, it comes to the hot hand and the gamble Smith felt had the best odds to get him the results he sought. Two yards made all the difference in the world. On third-and-1, the Falcons allowed Saints running back Pierre Thomas to gain 2 yards to convert, and New Orleans was in victory formation for the final moments.
Behind Enemy Lines:ESPN's NFC South blogger Pat Yasinskas brings us the story of Jonathan Vilma this morning.
Some of the Saints players were noticed returning to the empty Georgia Dome field after the game and huddling around the Falcons logo at midfield. There was no dancing on the Falcons logo or anything blatantly disrespectful, instead just a photo opportunity for the Saints players.
Yasinskas shares that the linebacker told ESPN's Ed Werder that it wasn't meant to be unsportsmanlike, rather that many of the the New Orleans players take photos to "commemorate significant victories."
Some may not take kindly to the gesture, but the key takeaway is that the Super Bowl champs entered the Georgia Dome knowing their season rode on a win. How long has it been since the Falcons were the hunted?
From the FanCast:The crowd noise wasn't lost on the fans watching from home and in the gameday FanCast.
"12th man got that false start! Woohoo," wrote a fan after a false start penalty on third down went against the Saints, brought back a touchdown and set up defensive end John Abraham's interception.
As this season has continued and the Falcons' home record has grown into near folk-lore status, the one overlooked constant has been the fans and the noise they produce. Always smart fans, they stay quiet when the Falcons are on offense and get loud and proud when the home team's defense is on the field.
Monday night was a prime example of what happens when smart fans — loudly— support a smart team. The noise created the penalty, which has a trickle-down effect.
Statistically Speaking:A few things on interceptions, the biggest guys on the football field and Falcons history.
The interceptions by defensive ends Abraham and Chauncey Davis isn't the first time two defensive linemen snagged picks in a single game for the Falcons. In 1970, Claude Humphrey and John Zook both did it against the Steelers.
Of the Falcons' fourth-best 21 interceptions this season, four have come from the D-line. In addition to Davis and Abraham, Jonathan Babineaux and Kroy Biermann have gotten into the act.
The two picks by Abraham and Davis went a long way toward limiting the damage Brees could do against them. They held him to a QB rating of 77.1, the second lowest of the season for him.
Pivotal Play:As far as game-changers go, there wasn't one much bigger than Davis' interception to end the third quarter. Down 10-7 the game's tempo was decidedly in favor of the team's defenses, each pounding on the other's offense, exercising a physical game plan designed to keep two explosive offenses off the field and out of control of the clock.
When Babineaux knifed through the line and had Brees in his grasps, Davis had to stay disciplined and stay within the play. Instincts tell you to go straight for the sack — help your teammate — but the Falcons had studied Brees all week and knew he'll make something out of nothing. The game plan was to attack and remember that the ball could always come out.
As Babineaux brought down Brees, the quarterback tossed an errant pass that Davis picked off and returned 26 yards for a touchdown.
"Our coaching staff made it clear to the entire defensive line to make it hard on Drew in terms of getting our hands up and forcing him out of the pocket," Davis said. "Consequently, it worked out tonight and we forced two turnovers."
It was pivotal in that it provided a score when scoring was nearly extinct in the game. It also gave the Falcons the lead, ending a third quarter that seesawed back and forth with zeroes on the scoreboard.
It was a huge play and somewhat of a rarity, but oddly something that had been seen by the Falcons before. Week 5 saw Biermann's interception help beat the Browns, a catch also returned for a touchdown.
That's A Wrap: The mood in the locker room was somber late Tuesday morning following Monday night's late loss to the Saints. The Falcons are a prideful bunch, but they're not arrogant to the point of conceit.
They expected to win, but they knew they had to earn it. They also knew they left just enough out on the field to not get the win.
The mood in the locker room was because they lost. It's not because they lost to the Saints or because of the timing of the loss. It'd been a long time since they lost this season. It was a tough loss. They were used to being the team to take wins away. * *
They didn't like the feeling of losing, but they know everything they've worked for is still in sight.
"I don't like losing, period, no matter what the situation is," running back Michael Turner said. "We have two cracks at it. We lost one. Hopefully next week, we bounce back hard."
Next week is the Carolina Panthers, a struggling team, but one that would love nothing more than to diminish the Falcons' season with a loss at the Georgia Dome. On the surface, this is what many will call an "easy win," but the Falcons look at it as nothing more than a "must win."

Audited results
- The acquisition of Lambert by LLYC in the U.S. drives business growth
- Effective expense management has led to an EBITDA margin of 16%
- The firm concludes a record-breaking semester in investments.
- 2024 is shaping up to be a transformational year for the company
MIAMI, Oct. 15, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- LLYC (BME:LLYC) closed the first half of 2024 with an operating revenue of 43.2 million euros, marking a 12% increase compared to last year. Total income (which includes client service recharges) improved by 16%, reaching 54.5 million euros. As shown in the audited results, the firm's growth has been driven by the acquisition of Lambert in the United States in February. LLYC's Marketing and Corporate Affairs practice achieved a 16% margin with a recurring EBITDA of 6.9 million euros.
2024 is shaping up to be a transformational year for the company. LLYC is stepping up as a key partner in marketing solutions, improving its corporate affairs services, and updating its organizational structure to be more flexible and effective.
In recent months, LLYC has secured significant Marketing accounts (including Vodafone, Turespaña, IFEMA Madrid, and GWM), demonstrating the uniqueness of its service offering. The company has also fully integrated BESO by LLYC and Apache part of LLYC (both acquired in 2021), creating a comprehensive Brand & Ad services, Paid Media and Performance, Growth, and Deep Learning solutions portfolio.
The 1.1 million euros invested in RDI have yielded AI-powered solutions that are already being applied across both Marketing and Corporate Affairs.
The U.S. as a growth driver
The acquisition of Lambert by LLYC has bolstered LLYC's size and positioning in the U.S., the sector's key market. The successful progress in integration has accelerated the consolidation of the firm's operations in the country, culminating in a new management structure announced last week.
Following these strong results, LLYC has decided to focus its U.S. operations on the East Coast, Florida, and the Midwest. BAM has been excluded from the consolidation perimeter due to integration challenges.
Record investments
In the first half of 2024, LLYC spent 30 million euros for new acquisitions. In addition to acquiring Lambert, LLYC has completed negotiations to acquire Dattis in Colombia and Zeus in Spain. Both of these acquisitions have started contributing to the company's results in the second half of 2024.
LLYC secured a syndicated financing agreement to support these investments in June, amounting to 47 million euros. The credit, signed with CaixaBank and Banco Santander, equips LLYC with the necessary funds to continue its organic and inorganic growth over the coming years.
LLYC holds a solid financial position, with a debt ratio below 1.5x EBITDA this semester, which is in line with the firm's commitment to the market.
“In 2024, LLYC is focusing on investment and transformation,” said Alejandro Romero, Partner and Global CEO of LLYC. “With our new organizational model and recent acquisitions, we're setting the stage to support the firm's future growth. Our clear focus is on innovation, creativity, top talent, and high-potential markets like the United States, where our presence has been strengthened following the Lambert acquisition. The recent contracts we've secured reinforce our position as a strategic partner in marketing solutions

Nearly a year and a half after ethnic violence broke out in Manipur, the Centre on Tuesday for the first time brought together legislators from the state's Meitei, Kuki and Naga communities for a meeting in New Delhi.
The meeting was organised by the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) to discuss confidence building measures to pave the way for lasting peace in the state.
In a statement issued later, the MHA said, “A group of elected members of Manipur Assembly, representing Kuki-Zo-Hmar, Meitei and Naga communities, met in New Delhi today to discuss on the current scenario in the state. The meeting unanimously resolved to appeal to the people of the state belonging to all communities to shun the path of violence so that no more precious lives of innocent citizens are lost.”
Nine Meitei legislators -- ministers Dr Sapam Ranjan, Govindas Konthoujam, Thounaojam Basanta Kumar, Yumnam Khemchand, Speaker Th Satyabrata and MLAs Thokchom Radheshyam, L Rameshwor, T Robindro and Kh Raghumani -- attended the meeting. The Kukis were represented by ministers Letpao Haokip, Nemcha Kipgen and MLAs Haokholet Kipgen and Ngursanglur Sanate. There were also three Naga legislators, including a minister.
The Centre was represented by the interlocutor appointed by the MHA, AK Mishra, and a few other senior officials of the ministry, said sources.
While the legislators remained tight-lipped, it was learnt some suggested that the MHA initiate such meetings with Meitei and Kuki civil society organisations in the near future.
“Separate administration” in the form of a Union Territory with legislature is a key demand of the Kuki-Zo community. It was not known if the Kuki legislators had flagged it during the meeting.
Tuesday's meeting was held nearly a month after Shah had said resolving the situation in Manipur requires dialogue between the Kukis and Meiteis, and that the Centre was in discussion with both sides. Earlier, on June 17, while reviewing the security situation in the northeastern state, Shah had made a similar statement.
Manipur has remained internally partitioned since the eruption of the ethnic conflict on May 3 last year that left some 250 people dead and 60,000 others displaced.

Donald Trump has a particular formula he uses to convey messages to his supporters and opponents alike: He highlights others’ wrongdoings even though he has committed similar acts himself.
On Oct. 3, 2024, Trump accused the Biden administration of spending Federal Emergency Management Agency funds ? money meant for disaster relief ? on services for immigrants. Biden did no such thing, but Trump did during his time in the White House, including to pay for additional detention space.
This is not the first time he has accused someone of something he had done or would do in the future. In 2016, Trump criticized opponent Hillary Clinton’s use of an unsecured personal email server while secretary of state as “extreme carelessness with classified material.” But once he was elected, Trump continued to use his unsecured personal cellphone while in office. And he has been criminally charged with illegally keeping classified government documents after he left office and storing them in his bedroom, bathroom and other places at his Mar-a-Lago estate.
More recently, the Secret Service arrested a man with a rifle who was allegedly planning to shoot Trump during a round of golf. In the wake of this event, Trump accused Democrats of using “inflammatory language” that stokes the fires of political violence. Meanwhile, Trump himself has a long history of making inflammatory remarks that could potentially incite violence.
As a scholar of both politics and psychology, I’m familiar with the psychological strategies candidates use to persuade the public to support them and to cast their rivals in a negative light. This strategy Trump has used repeatedly is called “projection.” It’s a tactic people use to lessen their own faults by calling out these faults in others.
Projection abounds
There are plenty of examples. During his Sept. 10, 2024, debate with Vice President Kamala Harris, Trump claimed that Democrats were responsible for the July 13 assassination attempt against him. “I probably took a bullet to the head because of the things that they say about me,” he declared.
Earlier in the debate he had falsely accused immigrants in Springfield, Ohio, of eating other people’s pets – a statement that sparked bomb threats and prompted the city’s mayor to declare a state of emergency.
Similarly, congressional investigators and federal prosecutors have found that Trump’s remarks called thousands of people to Washington, D.C., on Jan. 6, 2021, encouraging them to violently storm the Capitol in order to stop the counting of electoral votes.
Trump isn’t the only politician who uses projection. His running mate, JD Vance, claimed “the rejection of the American family is perhaps the most pernicious and the most evil thing the left has done in this country.” Critics quickly pointed out that his own family has a history of dysfunction and drug addiction.
Projection happens on both sides of the political aisle. In reference to Trump’s proposed 10% tariff on all imported goods, the Harris campaign launched social media efforts to condemn the so-called “Trump tequila tax.” While Harris frames this proposal as a sales tax that would devastate middle-class families, she deflects from the fact that inflation has made middle-class life more expensive since she and President Joe Biden took office.
How it works
Projection is one example of unconscious psychological processes called defense mechanisms. Some people find it hard to accept criticism or believe information that they wish were not true. So they seek – and then provide – another explanation for the difference between what’s happening in the world and what’s happening in their minds.
In general, this is called “motivated reasoning,” which is an umbrella phrase used to describe the array of mental gymnastics people use to reconcile their views with reality.
Some examples include seeking out information that confirms their beliefs, dismissing factual claims or creating alternate explanations. For example, a smoker might downplay or simply avoid information related to the link between smoking and lung cancer, or perhaps tell themselves that they don’t smoke as much as they actually do.
Motivated reasoning is not unique to politics. It can be a challenging concept to consider because people tend to think they are fully in control of their decision-making abilities and that they are capable of objectively processing political information. The evidence is clear, however, that there are unconscious thought processes at work, too.
Influencing the audience
Audiences are also susceptible to unconscious psychological dynamics. Research has found that over time, people’s minds subconsciously attach emotions to concepts, names or phrases. So someone might have a particular emotional reaction to the words “gun control,” “Ron DeSantis” or “tax relief.”
And people’s minds also unconsciously create defenses for those seemingly automatic emotions. When a person’s emotions and defenses are questioned, a phenomenon called the “backfire effect” can occur, in which the process of controlling, correcting or counteracting mistaken beliefs ends up reinforcing the person’s beliefs rather than changing them.
For instance, some people may find it hard to believe that the candidate they prefer – whom they believe to be the best person for the job – truly lost an election. So they seek another explanation and accept explanations that justify their beliefs. Perhaps they choose to believe, even in the absence of evidence, that the race was rigged or that many fraudulent votes were cast. And when evidence to the contrary is offered, they insist their views are correct.
A way out
Fortunately, research shows specific ways to reduce people’s reliance on these automatic psychological processes, including reiterating and providing details of objective facts and – importantly – attempting to correct untruths via a trusted source from the same political party.
For instance, challenges to Democrats’ belief that the Trump-affiliated conservative agenda called Project 2025 is “dangerous” would be more effective coming from a Democrat than from a Republican.
Similarly, a counter to Trump’s claim that the international community is headed toward World War III with Democrats in the White House would be stronger coming from one of Trump’s fellow Republicans. And certainly, statements that Trump “can never be trusted with power again” carries more weight when it comes from the lips of former Republican Vice President Dick Cheney than from any member of the Democratic Party.
Critiques from within a candidate’s own party are not out of the question. But they are certainly improbable given the hotly charged climate that is election season 2024.

Andy Cohen Calls 'Monsters' Star Cooper Koch 'Very Blessed' as Actor Admits He Didn't Use a Prosthetic During Erik Menendez Shower Scene
Cooper Koch bared all in Monsters: The Lyle and Erik Menendez Story.
During a guest appearance on the Monday, October 14, episode of Watch What Happens Live, Koch — who portrayed Erik Menendez in the hit Netflix series — confessed he was not using a prosthetic when filming a naked prison shower scene during the show.
Cooper and his on-screen brother, Nicholas Alexander Chavez, who played the role of Lyle Menendez, somehow stole the hearts of many while acting out the real-life story of the Menendez siblings — who are currently serving a lifetime sentence behind bars after murdering their allegedly abusive parents, Jose and Kitty, in 1989.
In "honor" of Cooper's stripped-down TV appearance, the talk show's host, Andy Cohen, counted down the "top 5 most iconic full-frontal moments" that have occurred in movies and television shows over the years.
The Bravo star brought up how Mark Wahlberg used a "prosthetic d---," in the 1977 movie Boogie Nights, prompting Koch, 28, to note: "Also, just to say, mine was not a prosthetic."
"Well, that was going to be my next question," Andy, 56, admitted. "Congratulations to you, Cooper. You’re very blessed, aren’t you."
- 'The Same Sentence as a Serial Killer': Lyle Menendez Claims His Trial Was 'Never About Actual Innocence' After 34 Years Behind Bars
- Sharna Burgess Was 'Hurt' by Julianne Hough's Comment About Her Winning 'DWTS': 'It Just Sucks'
- Brandi Glanville Accuses Lawyers of Being 'Paid Off' to 'Cut Ties' With Her Amid Lawsuit Against Bravo and Andy Cohen

"Well hung," Cooper quipped, unable to stop himself from cracking a slight smile.
Elsewhere in WWHL, Andy asked Cooper to share what the scariest part about filming fully naked was during the "Clubhouse of Horrors" segment of the late-night talk show.
"It’s not scary, I would say it’s just more uncomfortable at first and it’s very cold, especially in the shower," the Swallowed star confessed, noting the water was "warm in the beginning."
While he didn't find filming with no clothes on to be frightening, Cooper said other scenes were a bit terrifying.
"I kind of want to say the murder scene [was the scariest] but then I don’t know. It was all super intense and scary," he mentioned. "Episode five, that was probably the most. That was the one."
Auditioning for the series was hair-raising in itself too, as "Nicholas broke a chair" while acting as Lyle and "Ryan Murphy was there, scary," he noted.
During his chat with Andy on Monday evening, Cooper also opened up about what it was like to recently meet the Menendez brothers at their prison in San Diego, Calif., where the actor traveled ro with Kim Kardashian to speak about prison reform and advocate for the siblings sentence to be reconsidered and reduced.
Cooper said meeting Erik and Lyle was "not super intimidating" but more so "nerve-wracking" since he has "known about them for so long and care[s] so much about them."
"It was just like nervous but then when I got there it was all great," he detailed.
After engaging in deep conversation with the Menendez brothers and Cooper, Kim went on to publish a personal essay about why she thinks Erik and Lyle deserve to be freed and requested for their case to be revisited by prosecutors.

Amidst a high decibel slugfest between the Congress and Opposition NDA constituents BJP and Janata Dal (Secular) over corruption issues in the last couple of months, the Channapatna, Shiggaon, and Sandur Assembly constituencies will head into the much-awaited byelections on November 13.
With less than a month away, the Congress and NDA are yet to finalise their candidates for the byelections that is being seen as a kind of referendum on the Congress government’s performance. The Congress came to power with a thumping majority of 135 seats but since then has been under pressure over allocation to development works in the light of the huge allocation made towards the five guarantees promised before elections. While the government has so far desisted from holding taluk and zilla panchayat elections that could test its popularity, the Congress improved its tally in Lok Sabha from 1 in 2019 to 9 in 2024.
Of the three, NDA held two seats and the Congress held one. The byelections have been necessitated owing to resignations of former Chief Ministers H.D. Kumaraswamy and Basavaraj Bommai from Channapatna and Shiggaon, respectively, and E. Thukaram from Sandur, following their election to the Lok Sabha.
The byelection for Channapatna seat has emerged as a prestige battle between Mr. Kumaraswamy and Deputy Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar - both jostling for Vokkaliga leadership. The constituency in Old Mysuru region is witnessing a close battle as Mr. Shivakumar is being seen as the one trying to redeem his status in the Vokkaliga heartland after facing a drubbing in the Lok Sabha polls, including the defeat of his brother D.K. Suresh from Bengaluru Rural Lok Sabha constituency. Mr. Shivakumar has so far made multiple trips to the seat to interact and receive grievances from the public, and has been seeking votes for himself. Mr. Suresh is among the frontrunner for ticket, Congress insiders say.
The JD(S), which has staked claim for the seat in the NDA, is also facing issues with the BJP MLC and five-time MLA C.P. Yogeshwar lobbying hard to get ticket. Sources in the regional party claim that the BJP Central leadership has cleared the seat for the JD(S), which will choose its candidate. The move of Mr. Yogeshwar, who is seen as a party-hopper and likely to affect the JD(S)‘s fortunes, is being watched closely. Despite pressure from party insiders, Nikhil Kumaraswamy, son of Mr. Kumaraswamy, has so far said he would not contest.
In Shiggaon, the name of Bharath Bommai, son of former Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai, is being speculated in the BJP along with the name of former Minister Murugesh Nirani, who lost from Bilagi in the May 2023 Assembly elections. With Panchamsali Lingayats having a say in Shiggaon, the former Minister hailing from the community, is hoping to resurrect his political career. As many as 57 aspirants have applied in the BJP and the Congress has 18 aspirants.
The return of BJP’s legislator from Gangavati G. Janardhana Reddy, who faces cases of illegal mining, to Ballari district after 13 years has made the byelection to Sandur in the iron ore mining district interesting. Congress sources say that Mr. Tukaram’s wife and daughter are the frontrunners among the aspirants that also includes a former zilla panchayat member.

The Pittsburgh Steelers are trending toward making a change at quarterback. Veteran Russell Wilson, who signed with the Steelers in March, is finally healthy enough to start taking first-team reps, and will reportedly do just that this week. That sets him up to make his Steelers debut this weekend when they face the New York Jets.
Sources: The #Steelers plan to give Russell Wilson first-team reps in practice this week, putting him in line to make his season debut and start Sunday night against the #Jets.
— Tom Pelissero (@TomPelissero) October 15, 2024
Pittsburgh is 4-2 with Justin Fields. But Wilson’s calf is fully healed and now he gets his shot. pic.twitter.com/vrhgo7LfgO
Wilson, 35, struggled with a calf injury throughout training camp, but appeared to be on the other side of it as the regular season approached. He was named the starting quarterback prior to Week 1 over Justin Fields, but reaggravated that lurking calf injury just days before the Steelers were due to start their season against the Atlanta Falcons.
The Steelers didn't make a formal announcement about their Week 1 starter before inactives were released, but when when they came out 90 minutes before kickoff, Wilson was on the list. Fields would be the starter going forward, and he helped lead the Steelers to a 3-0 start.
Pittsburgh has had just a few hiccups since then and currently sit at 4-2. Despite that strong, Tomlin is definitely putting Wilson in consideration to be the Week 7 starter.
Tomlin: "[Russell Wilson] is in consideration this week. We'll see where that leads us.
— Andrew Siciliano (@AndrewSiciliano) October 15, 2024
The Steelers need an offensive push, and Wilson can definitely give that to them. And Russ wants redemption more than ever after two disastrous years with the Denver Broncos. Now he's closer than ever to proving he's got more passes left in that mighty arm.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, today (Tuesday), spoke with French President Emmanuel Macron.
The Prime Minister told President Macron that he opposes a unilateral ceasefire, which would not change the security situation in Lebanon and would return the country to its previous state. He emphasized that Israel is operating against the Hezbollah terrorist organization to prevent it from threatening Israel's citizens on the northern border and to enable them to return to their homes safely.
Prime Minister Netanyahu clarified that Israel would not agree to any arrangement that does not provide this and which does not stop Hezbollah from rearming and regrouping.
The Prime Minister also said that he was taken aback at President Macron's intention to host a conference in Paris on the issue of Lebanon, with participants such as South Africa and Algeria, which are working to deny Israel its fundamental right of self-defense and, in effect, reject its very right to exist.
The Prime Minister's Office stated following the conversation, "A reminder to the French President: It was not a UN decision that established the State of Israel but the victory that was achieved in the War of Independence with the blood of our heroic fighters, many of whom were Holocaust survivors, including from the Vichy regime in France."
"It would also be worthwhile to recall that in recent decades, the UN has approved hundreds of antisemitic decisions against the State of Israel, the purpose of which is to deny the one and only Jewish state's right to exist and its ability to defend itself."

The United States is at the forefront of this and it is applying innovation to develop even superior learning conditions. According to a five-year study in Florida financed by USD 8 million by The U. S. Department of Education in Legends of Learning that was initiated in April of 2024.This particular importance is an attempt to examine how the process of gamification is effective in enhancing the general attitude of fifth graders in Miami-Dade County Public Schools and their performance in science classes as reflected by science standardized tests.
France Game-Based Learning
The market for game-based learning in France is emerging because the use of technologies in learning increases, both at schools and in businesses. For instance, the use of the video games in the French educational system in subjects like STEM is on the right track to positively engaging students. The corporate world in France is also applying the elements of gamification on training programs to improve the levels of skill and performance of employees. Gamification is gradually getting adopted in France to provide effective and innovative approaches of learning that is healthier than that of a sobering rote memorization technique. The European Union's DEAP (Digital Education Action Plan) based on the program 2021-2027 for strengthening digital learning with the development of innovative learning tools such as digital games for making the learning process more interesting and stimulating. This is one with the plan to make education as inclusive and accessible as possible to the digital platform.
India Game-Based Learning
In India, learning through games is slowly and steadily becoming popular as educational institutions and businesses opt for digitization. In schools and in the place of work, games have been used in learning in order to offer attractive methods of learning in schools. This is fueled by the advancements of digital structures, and improvement of internet connectivity in India. To promote the program, Duolingo rolled out a free application in March of 2023 that helps teach kids in India between the ages of 3-8 English. The app carries out activities in the form of games which is focused on enhancing literacy of children.
Saudi Arabia Game-Based Learning
Game-based learning is gradually gaining popularity in the KSA. Schools have adopted game-models in order to make the learning process more effective especially for subjects such as science and technology. Also, Saudi businesses are now turning to gamified training solutions for enhancing its workforce knowledge and, general efficiency. The country is also investing in digitalization and new forms of learning also making game-based learning an important trend in educational and training sector in Saudi Arabia. April 2024, Endless Studios is in partnership with many universities in the UAE and has just signed an MoU with New York University Abu Dhabi to improve on the educational services.

Bronwyn Newport Says Joining the Cast of 'RHOSLC' Has Been an 'Eye-Opening' Experience: 'I Thought I Was So Prepared'
Bronwyn Newport has completely taken Bravo by storm.
The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City newbie wowed viewers with her sharp wit and impeccable sense of style during her first few episodes of Season 5. Despite feeling like she knew what she was getting herself into, Newport couldn't believe what it was really like to film with the cast.
The fashion maven chats exclusively with OK! about joining the beloved reality series, her surprising friendship with Mary Cosby and her chic new pajama line with Bedhead.
"We are all completely awful and amazing at our different times," Newport says with a laugh about the ladies on her show. "Not to be heavy-handed about it, but it's been very eye-opening for me. I try to be very self-aware. I've had lots of therapy. I spend a lot of time in bed, in my bedhead pajamas, rethinking everything I've said all day. I'm always going to overanalyze everything."
"Now I know how naively prepared I was," the Broadway producer notes. "I've been on Instagram forever. I know what not to say. I'm curated about who I am and what I feel about myself. I knew they were going to talk about my older husband and my daughter. I knew all the things. I thought I was so prepared. It's really funny — I know the cameras are there, I knew some of these ladies ... obviously some were new, but you get into the conversations, and you do react in the moment."
Luckily for Newport, the church leader took a swift liking to her, which rarely happens with new cast members and Cosby. "Mary is really funny, and I was really surprised by my connection with her," she adds.

"I hardly knew anything about her before I joined the show. Every time I sat across the table, she was nodding, I was also nodding my head. Every time she her eyes were bugging out over something someone said, mine were rolling across the floor," Newport admits.
With her season of RHOSLC now airing, the mother-of-one has also found time to collaborate with Bedhead on her own line of cozy pajamas. "I've been buying Bedhead pajamas since my daughter was little. I just always wanted to match with her, so any holidays or special occasions, I'd buy them," she says.
"I get my husband, who's a really serious businessman, to wear matching jammies with me. I don't think friends of mine have ever shown up on a trip with their own pajamas because they know I'm going to bring them — and we're all going to have matching ones. I love them," Newport gushes.

2024 MLB Playoff Championship Series MVP odds: Ohtani, Soto favored
While the regular-season MVP awards seem to be all but locked up, there is still the matter of NLCS and ALCS MVP, with the World Series MVP race on the horizon.
Shohei Ohtani is the heavy favorite to win the National League regular-season MVP, and he's also atop the oddsboard in the NLCS race.
However, while Aaron Judge has the regular-season American League MVP award all but wrapped up, he has some competition from a few teammates in the ALCS MVP tilt.
Check out the odds at DraftKings Sportsbook as of Oct. 15.
2024 NLCS MVP ODDS:
Shohei Ohtani, Dodgers: +270 (bet $10 to win $37 total)
Francisco Lindor, Mets: +400 (bet $10 to win $50 total)
Mookie Betts, Dodgers: +600 (bet $10 to win $70 total)
Mark Vientos, Mets: +900 (bet $10 to win $100 total)
2024 ALCS MVP ODDS:

Giancarlo Stanton, Yankees: +600 (bet $10 to win $70 total)
Jose Ramirez, Guardians: +900 (bet $10 to win $100 total)
The rapid nature of the MLB postseason causes the odds to shift day-to-day, but as of Tuesday afternoon, Ohtani and Soto are the favorites.
Through two games in the NLCS, in seven at-bats, Ohtani has two runs, two hits and an RBI. He's also been walked three times and struck out twice.
Mets superstar Francisco Lindor, second on the NL oddsboard, has one home run and one RBI through two games.
As for the ALCS, Soto had one home run, two hits and an RBI in Game 1. He's been walked once and struck out once.
Judge is second on the AL oddsboard, despite not tallying a hit in Game 1 against the Guardians. He led baseball in home runs during the regular season, but has yet to hit a dinger in the playoffs.

Heidi Klum and Daughter Leni, 20, Face Backlash for Posing Together in Another Lingerie Campaign: 'This Is So Strange'
Oct. 15 2024, Published 12:27 p.m. ET
Another year, another lingerie campaign that people don't want to see!
Heidi Klum, 51, and her daughter Leni Klum, 20, faced backlash for their new campaign, which features them wearing skimpy outfits.
The mother-daughter duo flaunted the sets of underwear while promoting Intimissimi’s Fall-Winter collection.
"Family, fashion, femininity all in one empowering, stylish collection - Heidi and Leni Klum are back with the new Fall Winter campaign 😍 #intimissimi #theartofitalianlingerie," the fashion brand wrote via Instagram on Monday, October 14.
However, people were a little turned off by their bond.
One person wrote, "Am I the only one thinking this is a bit weird? ..campaign at least doen't work for me. Like who dresses up in lingerie with his mom and prances around taking pics? Don't know... I mean nothing wrong with that buy it's like not sth that makes sense in an ad, when I am looking to buy lingerie and stuff..." while another said, “I have to say this advert it’s a bit weird."
“Quite strange to do this with your mum,” someone else wrote, while a fourth user added: “This is so strange ? What kind of advert is this ???”
However, some defended the model and her daughter. One person wrote, "Two beautiful ladies! I can't imagine why anyone would be critical of this. People have been modeling underwear forever. ❤️🌻," while another said, "Wow 😍."
“BEAUTIFUL and I dont understand the comments who say it is weird to do this with your mom. WHY? Do they eventually see the female body and lingerie as something always s3xual? Or what is the problem? I’m really curious to understand their way of thinking, because to me, this is just a mother & daugther [sic] who are like best friends LOVE IT!” a third person gushed.

This isn't the first time Heidi and Leni have collaborated together.
As OK! previously reported, they also stunned in lingerie in 2022.
"Together with @intimissimiofficial we celebrate women; the love and support between a mother and her daughter; and how confident, beautiful and happy lingerie can make you feel," Klum wrote at the time about the partnership.
"Check out our favorite styles online and in all Intimissimi stores and explore 'the art of Italian lingerie,'" she continued.

Tipping the scales? Alex Bowman DQ a weighty issue
Hendrick Motorsports opted not to appeal the Alex Bowman disqualification from the Charlotte road course, an admission that there didn’t appear to be such an extenuating circumstance that they could convince an appeal hearing officer that it didn’t violate the intent of the rule.
HMS thought Sunday it had all four of its cars advance to the Round of 8 until Bowman’s car failed post-race weight requirements. Instead of earning 29 points, the disqualified Bowman earned one point for the event, putting him below the playoff cutline and Joey Logano into the playoffs.
All cars go through pre-race tech and must weigh 3,400-3,500 pounds depending on the weight of the driver (drivers are weighed periodically throughout the year). The top-5 cars, and then in the playoffs, the playoff cars, are weighed post-race. There is a tolerance of 0.5 percent, about 17 pounds, in the post-race inspection to allow for any natural loss of weight from the competition as parts and pieces break and fluid levels can fluctuate.
"Hendrick Motorsports will not appeal the disqualification of the No. 48 car following Sunday’s race at the Charlotte Roval," the team said in a statement. "NASCAR allows a clear margin to account for the difference in pre- and post-race weight.
"After a thorough review by our team and the sanctioning body, we simply did not give ourselves enough margin to meet the post-race requirement. Although unintentional, the infraction was avoidable. We are extremely disappointed to lose a playoff spot under these circumstances and apologize to our fans and partners."
Whether Hendrick did something uncouth or just is a victim of circumstance can be debated. The sport has a history of ingenious ways to take weight out of the car (and maybe even put it back near the end of the race). Wherever there is a tolerance, teams potentially will do things to get closer to the tolerance level. On pit road, drivers push their speed to the 5 mph tolerance above the speed limit.
There likely are ways to slyly remove weight or change a piece sometime between pre-race tech and the end of the race. Teams have put weight in a helmet bag. Teams have put different air in tires for tech in order to make the car heavier. It’s part of the game. It’s not that no one tries to get the car lighter after they go through tech, it’s just how far they want to get to the line where if something unintended happens, they fail the weight requirement.
NASCAR hasn’t said how much off the Bowman car was in tech, so there’s no way to definitively know how close they were. But the team was allowed to top off fuel and purge and replace its water system. That didn’t help the car make weight, and likely was key to the decision not to appeal as it appeared NASCAR gave Bowman’s team every opportunity to make weight.
It’s unfortunate for Bowman and hard to say how much it helped him, whether the weight of the car was worth the nine points he needed to advance to the next round. But it’s obvious Hendrick folks didn’t see a way where they could— pardon the pun — tip the scales in their favor. So they have paid the price.

Kelsea Ballerini Admits She Doesn't Watch Boyfriend Chase Stokes' Hit Show 'Outer Banks': We 'Have a Deal'
Kelsea Ballerini, 31, may be head over heels for her boyfriend, Outer Banks star Chase Stokes, but that doesn’t mean she’s binge-watching his Netflix show.
The country music singer recently confessed to fans that she’s never actually seen the hit series, despite Stokes playing one of the lead characters John B.
“Because he and I have a deal! but I've seen so much of this season and it's bada-- 🤍,” she revealed, admitting that she’s caught glimpses but hasn’t fully tuned into the series.
In a playful TikTok video shared on October 14, Ballerini used a popular filter that rated Outer Banks characters.
“Okay, part 1 of Season 4 is out. Let's do it!” she said, diving into the challenge as various character photos flashed across the screen.
But as more characters appeared, Ballerini’s lack of familiarity became apparent, leaving fans both entertained and puzzled.
In the comments, one user questioned, “NO WAIT SHE'S WITH CHASE BUT SHE HAS NEVER SEEN OUTER BANKS?!” while another playfully urged, "Kelsea you just need to watch the show 😭 🤍."
Ballerini, however, had a response ready.
“NO FURTHER QUESTIONS YOUR HONOR,” Ballerini wrote in the comments.

In the TikTok, the country star found herself in a tricky situation while attempting to rank the show's characters from one to ten.
Her failure to watch the Netflix series became obvious in the clip when she encountered Charles Halford’s character, Big John.
"Okay, I know he's a dad ... I think we don't like him — from what I have gathered and what I know," she admitted, giving an unsure smile to the camera.
When the filter landed on Madelyn Cline's character, Ballerini's reaction was a bit more enthusiastic.
“So hot ... we stan Madelyn Cline and Sarah Cameron in this house,” she remarked, praising her boyfriend’s ex-girlfriend and costar.
With just two spots left — number one and number seven — she declared, "So I'm holding the No. 1 space, obviously. For obvious reasons," implying that her boyfriend deserved the top spot.
"The bandana, the face," Ballerini gushed as she finally encountered Stokes' character.
"The him. Ugh, we stan!" she said, ensuring her followers that even if she hasn’t watched the series, she’s clearly smitten with the star.
After fumbling through the game, she cheerfully wrapped up her video by saying, “Well, I failed miserably at this but I am so excited for everyone and happy season 4.”
She also joked: “HAHAHA I DID MY BEST GO STREAM OUTER BANKS.”
Season 4 Part 1 of Outer Banks is now streaming on Netflix, with Part 2 set to release on November 7.

Davante Adams trade roundtable: Who won and what it all means going forward
The New York Jets have acquired Davante Adams from the Las Vegas Raiders for a conditional third-round pick that can turn into a second-round pick, according to reports. The star receiver was reportedly in the Jets' building on Tuesday morning, wasting no time in getting started with his new team.
So who won this deal, and what does it mean for both teams? FOX Sports' NFL experts have the answers.
Who won this trade?
Ralph Vacchiano: The Jets are the clear winners here (That's something you don't say often!). They get a truly elite receiver who has averaged 98 catches, 1,231 yards and 11 touchdowns over the past eight seasons. They get to pair him with Garrett Wilson, one of the most talented young receivers in the NFL. They keep their quarterback happy by giving Aaron Rodgers what he wants. They re-energize their locker room and fan base after a demoralizing loss to the Buffalo Bills on Monday night. And they complete a Hail Mary from GM Joe Douglas to maybe save a failing season and his job. And all for a conditional third-round pick?
The Jets have gone 13 straight seasons without making the playoffs. If they can squeeze into the postseason this year, nobody's going to care what that pick could have been — even if it becomes a second-rounder. So give credit where it's due, because every team wishes they had a GM willing to go for it, even if it feels a little desperate. Maybe it is. But is there any franchise in the NFL more desperate than the Jets? It probably won't work because, let's face it, things rarely work out for the Jets. But at least they took a big swing.
Henry McKenna: The Jets won this deal, but they have opened themselves up to some risk. The conditional pick goes from being a third-rounder to a second-rounder if Adams finishes as a first-team or second-team All Pro, or if he is active for either the AFC Championship or Super Bowl. In essence, everything has to go right for Adams to cost a second-rounder, and if that's the case, he'll probably be worth the price. Ultimately, a pick between 60 and 80 isn't so bad for a wideout like Adams (as Ralph pointed out).
Adams' contract is such that the Jets aren't going to want to pay him in 2025, and they have no obligation to do so. They will either cut him at the end of the year or re-sign him on a new deal. And that's where some of my questions come in. Aaron Rodgers is the glue that brought this deal together. What if he retires after 2024? What if he demands a trade? If the Jets melt down even more, they run the risk of paying a premium pick for Adams to help them for just 10 weeks. Again, if this goes right, Rodgers will want to play on the final year of his deal for 2025 and Adams will likely re-sign for a team-friendly price — and all will be well. But how often does all go well with the Jets?
Eric D. Williams: It's the Raiders. They move on from a player on the downside of his career who didn't want to be there, and in the process, they get another desperate team to pay his salary for the rest of the year. Las Vegas also received a valuable draft pick that could be as high as a second in return, helping their effort to potentially move up in the draft in 2025 to get a quarterback. GM Tom Telesco and head coach Antonio Pierce are in rebuilding mode. And while they would like to win now, the Raiders also understand they need to add more talent to the roster to compete long-term with the Chiefs in the AFC West. The Jets get a No. 1 receiver in Adams, but there is no guarantee he will be there beyond this season.
Does Davante Adams actually fix anything for the Jets?
Vacchiano: Come on, don't be a downer! Can't you just be happy that the Jets are "all-in"? Don't you think there are legions of Dallas Cowboys fans wishing Jerry Jones was this proactive?
No, acquiring Adams does not fix everything. It probably doesn't even fix the Jets' biggest issues. They are one of the most penalized teams in the NFL (11 on Monday night). Their defense isn't what it used to be. The offensive line is shaky. There's a lot more, too. But Adams can fix some glaring issues in the offense. One is that they are really having trouble scoring in the red zone. Against the Bills they scored one touchdown in four trips. Adams has been a red-zone and touchdown machine in his career. And Rodgers trusts him, which can only help in big spots. Also, with new playcaller Todd Downing, the Jets finally showed an ability to create room for Wilson and running back Breece Hall on Monday night. Those two talented kids combined for 276 total yards. Now defenses will have to focus on Adams, which could open things up for them even more. So this really could give a boost to a Jets offense that currently ranks 22nd in the NFL.
Williams: In the short term, Adams should help jump-start New York's offense. He already has chemistry with Rodgers and should be key in situational football like third down and the red zone when the Jets need someone to step up and make a play. At 2-4, the Jets are just a game out of the final wild-card spot in the AFC and two games behind Buffalo in the AFC East. And with a talented defense, the Jets still have time to turn things around.
McKenna: Yes and no. Zooming all the way out, the Jets fired their head coach and changed playcallers going into Week 6. And with Todd Downing taking over for Nathaniel Hackett, the Jets offense looked better. So that was step 1 to fixing the offense. Apparently, the arrival of Adams is step 2.
The Jets actually have a bigger issue at tackle, where Morgan Moses is having a slow start and Tyron Smith looks to have aged out of his prime. But the good news is that they have a solution on the roster: rookie Olu Fashanu, a 2024 first-round pick. If the Jets turn over one of those starting spots to Fashanu, they should see an upgrade on offense.
And then the Jets have invested a lot of money in their WR2 position and Allen Lazard has been surprisingly productive this year, with 26 catches for 354 yards and five touchdowns. It's Garrett Wilson who has had some issues holding up as the No. 1 option, with 399 yards and three touchdowns. That's where this could make life easier for New York. If Adams is ready to be WR1 again, it'll open up things for Wilson at WR2 and even more for Lazard as WR3. And if the Jets can keep running the ball like they did on Monday night, then New York's offense will be on the mend. The Adams trade doesn't "fix" the Jets, who weren't missing a receiver. But he absolutely upgrades them.
Where does Adams fit into an already deep Jets receiver corps?
Vacchiano: The first place he fits is right into Mike Williams' spot on the roster. That was obvious Monday night when the first thing Rodgers did at his postgame press conference was call out Williams for running the wrong route on the game-ending interception (What? You thought it was Rodgers' fault?). Williams has done nothing with the Jets anyway, and they are better off riding with a Big 3 of Adams, Wilson and Allen Lazard.
Presumably, as soon as he's up to speed on the playbook (and maybe even before that), Adams will emerge as Rodgers' top target. Rodgers knows him, trusts him, and even though Adams is 31 years old, he does have the best résumé. It'll be really interesting to see how that affects Wilson, who is a rising star and hasn't always seemed to have a cozy relationship with his quarterback. He finally started to break out the past two weeks, catching 21 passes for 208 yards and two touchdowns. Those numbers are likely to go down at least a little bit. It's not clear how happy he's going to be about that.
Williams: Adams replaces Garrett Wilson as the No. 1 target as soon as he puts on his uniform. Wilson is younger and more talented, but he has yet to earn the full trust of Rodgers. Adams and Rodgers are already on the same wavelength and should make big plays from Day 1. The odd man out appears to be Mike Williams, who has yet to regain his big-play form coming off ACL knee surgery.
Is it dangerous to kowtow to Aaron Rodgers like the Jets appear to be doing?
Greg Auman: It's dangerous, but with a limited window around an aging first-ballot Hall of Fame quarterback, you have to do what you can to maximize that opportunity. Adams isn't close to being worth what he's due to make in 2025 and 2026, so this could be a third-round pick for 11 games, which is expensive unless it contributes to a deep playoff run.
From a long-term standpoint, it's not a huge commitment. You're doing this to placate Rodgers. If you have to keep Adams next season to keep Rodgers happy and unretired, it becomes a much larger (and less wise) investment. The Jets are 2-4, and it'll take at least 9-8 to get into the playoffs, so the question is whether Adams can help them to 7-4 the rest of the way. They still have the Dolphins twice, the Patriots and Jaguars, so it's within reach, if still unlikely.
Vacchiano: Sure, but there's no going back now. I mean, giving Aaron Rodgers what he wants has been the Jets' entire organizational plan for the past two seasons. Once you commit to that strategy, it's hard to change gears in the middle of it.
It was always a huge risk to give in to his enormous ego and trust that he was as good a GM and coach as he was a quarterback. The Jets thought it was worth it to subjugate themselves because they thought there was a Super Bowl waiting for them at the end of Rodgers' Rainbow. If there is, it's all worth it. All it cost them was their self-respect, Robert Saleh's job, and a lot of money for Rodgers and his friends.
But honestly, at this point, it would be more dangerous to NOT kowtow to Rodgers' demands, whims or whatever. They need him happy and comfortable for this whole thing to work. Because if he's not at his best and if he can't recapture at least a hint of his old, MVP form, the Jets have no chance to climb out of this 2-4 hole. Plus, then they'd have to listen to him complain on some podcast, and really, haven't we all had enough of that?
Williams: Owner Woody Johnson and the rest of the Jets' brass have no choice. It's what New York signed up for when they went after the enigmatic Rodgers. New York is all-in on Rodgers, so why not bring in Adams and give the 40-year-old quarterback the best chance of having success and chasing a Super Bowl?
McKenna: In for an inch, in for a mile. The Jets have no choice but to keep buying in on the Aaron Rodgers era, even as it continues to spiral. There's a high likelihood that — when Rodgers leaves — the Jets roster will look like a toddler's playroom after a bedtime tantrum. Toys strewn everywhere. Broken dolls and action figures. Missing legos, maybe one ingested.
Whether Rodgers is pulling the strings or applying pressure, he's clearly a factor in their decision-making on personnel, from Lazard to Adams to Hackett to Randall Cobb. It's a bit like LeBron James cosplaying general manager — it doesn't end well. But New York signed up for this. The Jets brought in Rodgers (hopefully) knowing what they were going to get. And now, they have to go all-in on the final years of Rodgers' career. This trade is yet another example of that.
What happens if none of this works for the Jets?
Vacchiano: They're pretty screwed. On the bright side, they've got a lot of experience with that sort of thing.
Look, to borrow a phrase from Jerry Jones, the Jets were "all-in" on this Rodgers experiment and this season. Maybe — maybe — they can extend it another year and bring the old gang (and I do mean "old") back for one last run. They do actually have most of their key players under contract at least through 2025.
Still, it's much more likely they're going to have to destroy everything they've built and try again. Douglas can't possibly survive a sixth straight season without making the playoffs (especially since his record is 29-60). I mean, if his grand plan hasn't worked yet, who is crazy enough to think it'll all come together in Year 7?
So that means a new GM who isn't going to want to be saddled with a 41-year-old, diminished version of Rodgers who has unchecked power and Woody Johnson's ear. That'll also mean another new coach (chosen by the GM, not the quarterback). And the new GM will want to at least draft a young quarterback for the future — and we all know how Rodgers loves that.
In other words, it'll be a mess. And maybe worse than the usual Jets mess, depending on how the quarterback reacts.
Williams: The Jets already hit the eject button on head coach Robert Saleh. Interim head coach Jeff Ulbrich and GM Joe Douglas are likely to follow at season's end if the Jets do not make the playoffs. And the Jets can hit the reset button by hiring an experienced head coach to clean up the mess next season like Mike Vrabel.
McKenna: What Eric said — and then there's the matter of Rodgers' future. He has said in the past that he planned to do two years in New York, which did not count the Achilles year. So in theory, he planned to play through 2025 and see what was next. But if this continues to go poorly, Rodgers might not want to stick around to see which coach takes over. He could retire and/or demand a trade. I think that's partially where the Jets' urgency comes from — they're so invested in winning now with Rodgers that they would be devastated to lose him. Because if Rodgers is gone, you can bet Adams is gone, too.
What does this trade mean for the Raiders going forward?
Auman: My question is whether this opens the door to Las Vegas trading Maxx Crosby to the Lions for a much larger package of picks. You have a better team with a sudden and more glaring need after Aidan Hutchinson's season-ending leg injury, so if the Raiders are open to parting with an elite pass-rusher, they can reload in a big way. A first and a second? More? Las Vegas didn't feel like a playoff team this season, with four losses all by double digits, including one to the Panthers. So you reset, and gaining picks makes it easier to get a starting quarterback out of the upcoming draft.
Williams: Pierce and Telesco have the Raiders at 2-4 in the AFC West. And while there's certainly pressure on Pierce to compete for a spot in the postseason in his first full season as head coach, this year realistically is about evaluating the roster and figuring out a strategy for the long haul that leads to sustainable winning. And for the Raiders, that means finding the long-term answer at quarterback through free agency, trade or the draft. Getting rid of Adams' salary from the books and getting some draft compensation will help Telesco and Pierce in that effort.

LeAnn Rimes and Husband Eddie Cibrian Celebrate 10th Annual Autumn Harvest Weekend at Their 'Home Away From Home' in Montana: Photos
She's a Western beauty!
LeAnn Rimes was glowing in photos of her and the singer's husband, Eddie Cibrian, in Montana over the weekend, where the 42-year-old hosted her 10th Annual Autumn Harvest Weekend at The Ranch at Rock Creek in Philipsburg, Mont.
"Another one for the books! 10 years of absolute joy at autumn 🍂 harvest with @theranchatrockcreek," Rimes captioned her Instagram post highlighting the event, which took place from Thursday, October 10, through Saturday, October 12.
"Montana has become our home away from home," she continued. "This land is such a blessing! and @fleetwoodthebabe LOVES it here… dirty dog! 🐕."
Rimes and Cibrian's adorable pooch, Fleetwood, was featured in a video included in the "I Need You" singer's upload. The clip showcased how the pup got super muddy after jumping into water near the ranch.
In the video, a man, who appeared to be Cibrian, 51, was wiping the dog down with a towel as he asked, "What are you doing?"

"She probably drank that water... gross," the person noted. The camera then panned to Rimes, who was putting her shoes on inside and suggested they put the dog in the shower.
This year's Autumn Harvest Weekend marked a milestone decade of celebrations at the Montana Ranch. Each year, guests come out to ring in the new season with food and fun activities — and, of course, listen to music by Rimes herself.
In the comments section of Rimes' post, fans gushed over her and Cibrian, who tied the knot in 2011.
"Love to see your peace and love; and living simply.. beautiful loving couple! Priorities right!🌸," one supporter stated, as another admirer added: "You guys are such a cute couple and your dog is adorable."
After posting about the festive weekend, Rimes followed-up with a video of her singing Etta James' 1968 song "I'd Rather Go Blind" and Chris Stapleton's 2015 hit "Tennessee Whiskey" at the celebration with guitarist Greg Hagen.
The Voice (AU) coach loves to document her and Cibrian's adventures via social media, many of which tend to take place outdoors.
Back in August, Rimes shared how she and the Country Comfort actor "stumbled upon the cutest festival" but "wasn’t sure what to expect."
The lovebirds ended up having a "beautiful evening sitting in the park, decorating our lanterns" at the Water Lantern Festival.
"It was such a moving evening for so many people. Be sure to check them out, they have events across the U.S.," the "How Do I Live" singer concluded.
Rimes and Cibrian first started dating in 2009 after both ending their previous marriages. The duo initially met on the set of the Lifetime movie Northern Lights in 2008.

(MENAFN- IANS) New Delhi, Oct 15 (IANS) The Supreme Court Collegium, headed by Chief Justice of India D.Y. Chandrachud, on Tuesday recommended the elevation of three advocates as judges in the Andhra Pradesh High Court.
In May this year, the Chief Justice of the Andhra Pradesh High Court, in consultation with his two senior-most colleagues, forwarded the recommendation for the elevation of advocates Maheswara Rao Kuncheam @ Kuncham, Thoota Chandra Dhana Sekar @ T.C.D. Sekhar, and Challa Gunaranjan to the Bench.
The SC Collegium said that it consulted other apex court judges conversant with the affairs of the Andhra Pradesh High Court to ascertain the fitness and suitability of these candidates, adding that one of the consultee-judges has not given his views on the suitability or otherwise regarding the candidates.
It said that advocate Maheswara Rao Kuncheam, who appeared/argued in 136 reported judgments, has a good practice at the Bar.
"All the four consultee-Judges have given a positive opinion on the suitability of the candidate for appointment as a Judge of the High Court," noted the SC Collegium.
Advocate Sekhar has a practice of more than 25 years in civil, criminal, constitutional, and taxation cases with specialisation in taxation, revenue laws, land acquisition and civil law, said the apex court Collegium, adding that the inputs provided in the file indicate his professional competence to be good and nothing adverse has come to notice with regard to his integrity.
In relation to advocate Gunaranjan, the SC Collegium said that he has an extensive practice which is reflected in his professional income of Rs. 71.74 lakh per annum and 129 reported judgments delivered in the cases in which he argued.
Further, it said: "All the four consultee-Judges have given a positive opinion on the suitability of the candidate for appointment as a Judge of the High Court. The inputs provided in the file also indicate that his professional competence is viewed to be good and that nothing adverse has come to notice with regard to his integrity."
It resolved to recommend that advocates Kuncheam, Sekhar, and Gunaranjan be appointed as Andhra Pradesh High Court judges and their inter se seniority be fixed as per the existing practice. Further, it noted that since the views of the Chief Minister and the Governor of Andhra Pradesh have not been received, the Department of Justice has forwarded the above recommendation by invoking para 14 of the Memorandum of Procedure which provides that if the comments of the state constitutional authorities are not received within the prescribed time-frame, it should be presumed by the Minister of Law and Justice that the Governor and the Chief Minister have nothing to add to the proposal and proceed accordingly.

NEW DELHI: The India-Canada diplomatic row over the killing of Sikh separatist Hardeep Singh Nijjar escalated further on Tuesday with Ottawa hinting at possible sanctions against India in view of certain findings in the case and New Delhi vehemently trashing the charges.
The Canadian authorities also attempted to link the Bishnoi gang with Indian government agents in carrying out covert operations including violent criminal activities in Canada and claimed to have clear evidence to back the charges.
As the ties between the two countries hit rock bottom, Canadian Foreign Minister Melanie Joly did not rule out imposing sanctions against India saying "everything is on the table".
In a related development, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau spoke to his British counterpart Keir Starmer and discussed "developments" related to what the Ottawa described as "targeted campaign against Canadian citizens by agents linked to the government of India".
On its part, India strongly rejected attempts by Canadian authorities to link Indian agents with criminal gangs in Canada with official sources even saying that Ottawa's assertion that it shared evidence with New Delhi in the Nijjar case was simply not true.
The sources also rejected Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's allegations that India was engaging in activities including carrying out covert operations targeting Canadian nationals in his country.
At a press conference, Trudeau, pointing fingers at India on the Nijjar case, said Canada will never tolerate the involvement of a foreign government in threatening and killing Canadian citizens on Canadian soil.
On Monday, India expelled six Canadian diplomats and announced withdrawing its high commissioner from Canada after dismissing Ottawa's allegations linking the envoy to a probe into the killing of Sikh extremist Nijjar.
Joly, replying to a question at Trudeau's media briefing, did not rule out further action against India.
"So today was a really important step. When you look at what is available in our toolbox, expelling diplomats is one of the highest and toughest measures a country can take under the Vienna convention... Everything is on the table," she said.
The ties between India and Canada came under severe strain following Canadian Prime Minister Trudeau's allegations in September last year of a "potential" involvement of Indian agents in the killing of Nijjar.
New Delhi rejected Trudeau's charges as "absurd".
In his comments at the media briefing on Monday, Trudeau, referring to findings by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) claimed that it has "clear and compelling evidence that agents of the government of India have engaged in, and continue to engage in, activities that pose a significant threat to public safety".
"This includes clandestine information gathering techniques, coercive behaviour targeting South Asian Canadians, and involvement in over a dozen threatening and violent acts, including murder. This is unacceptable," he alleged.
The Canadian prime minister said his government's attempts to work with India did not yield any result.
"That is why, this weekend, Canadian officials took an extraordinary step. They met with Indian officials to share RCMP evidence, which concluded six agents of the Government of India are persons of interest in criminal activities," he said.
"And despite repeated requests to the Government of India, they have decided not to co-operate. Given that the Government of India still refuses to cooperate, my colleague, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Melanie Joly, had only one choice," Trudeau said.
"Today (Monday), she issued a deportation notice for these six individuals. They must leave Canada. They will no longer be able to act as diplomats in Canada, nor to re-enter Canada, for whatever reason," he said.
An Indian government source said: "Canadian PM Trudeau's press conference yesterday was the same old Trudeau saying the same old things for the same old reasons."
Separately, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police alleged that Indian agents are using criminals to "target" the South Asian community, specifically pro-Khalistan elements in Canada.
In this context, it also referred to the Bishnoi gang.
The Indian government sources said the assertions by Canadian officials that Canada presented credible evidence to India in the Nijjar case is simply not true.
"The central assertion from all Canadian officials is that credible evidence has been presented to India. This was also repeated by their Charge d'Affaires Stewart Wheelers to the press. This is simply not true," the source said.
"From the very beginning, the Canadian approach has been to make vague accusations and put the burden of denial on India," it added.
The sources also rejected attempts by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) to link Indian agents to the Bishnoi gang.
At the RCMP press briefing, assertions were made about connections of certain individuals to India.
In no case were any specifics provided, the sources said.
There was also talk about holding people accountable.
But it was never made clear who and for what, they said.
The sources also slammed Canada for targeting the Indian high commissioner to Ottawa.
It is absurd that after intensively engaging the high commissioner over the last year, the Canadian government now chooses to target him, they said.
Meanwhile, Canada's Minister for International Trade and Economic Development Mary Ng assured the Canadian business community that Ottawa remains fully committed to supporting well-established commercial ties between Canada and India.
"Canada is a country founded on the rule of law, and protecting our citizens is our top priority. In light of the statement by the RCMP today, we are taking further necessary steps to ensure the safety of Canadians," she said.
"I understand the effects today's events may have on Canadians doing business or investing in India, and the uncertainty that some may be feeling at this time," she said.
"I want to reassure our business community that our government remains fully committed to supporting the well-established commercial ties between Canada and India," Mary added.

California college shooting that left employee critical was 'workplace violence,' officials say
Southern California’s Santa Monica College is closed as police investigate a campus shooting that wounded an employee in what officials said was a “workplace violence incident.”
SANTA MONICA, Calif. -- Southern California's Santa Monica College is closed Tuesday as police investigate a campus shooting that wounded an employee in what officials said was a “workplace violence incident.” No arrests have been made.
The shooting occurred around 10 p.m. Monday at the school's Center for Media and Design on a satellite campus that's also home to the public radio station KCRW, the community college said in a statement.
The victim, who was not identified, was hospitalized in critical condition, the college statement said. The shooter remains at large.
“This was a workplace violence incident, not a random act,” the statement said. “The College is fully cooperating with authorities, and all Santa Monica College campuses will be closed on Tuesday to prioritize the safety and well-being of our community.”
The Santa Monica Police Department, which is leading the investigation, did not immediately respond to calls and emails seeking additional details.
The school, with a series of satellite campuses in the beachside city, enrolls about 30,000 full- and part-time students.

The Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi on Tuesday (October 15, 2024) called on former Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister and Congress party veteran Kamal Nath, raising speculation about Mr. Nath’s role in the upcoming Assembly elections in Maharashtra and Jharkhand.
The meeting between the two senior Congress leaders, the second in 42 days, comes on a day when the Election Commission of India (ECI) announced byelections to two Lok Sabha and several Assembly seats across the country, including two in Madhya Pradesh — Vijaypura and Budhni.
The two leaders held discussions for about two hours after Mr. Gandhi visited the former Union Minister at his residence in New Delhi, Mr. Nath’s office said.
“Various topics were discussed between the two leaders over lunch. Mr. Rahul Gandhi and Mr. Nath met for about two hours. Mr. Kamal Nath expressed his gratitude to Mr. Rahul Gandhi for this courtesy visit,” Mr. Nath’s office said.
Mr. Nath’s son and former Chhindwara MP Nakul Nath also shared a picture of the two leaders on social media, saying that various matters concerning the party were discussed.
Mr. Nath had earlier visited Mr. Gandhi’s residence on September 3, when two leaders had held closed door discussions.
A close aide of Mr. Nath told The Hindu that the former Madhya Pradesh CM may be handed a “key responsibility” in the party ahead of the upcoming elections in Maharashtra and Jharkhand, which were also announced by the ECI on Tuesday.
“This meeting is clear a message to his critics in Madhya Pradesh and Delhi that he is still close to the [Gandhi] family,” the source said.
Once among the Congress leaders closest to the party’s first family, Mr. Nath has been out of sight since the party’s loss in the Madhya Pradesh Assembly election under his leadership in 2023. Mr. Nath’s influence is also said to have taken a hit after his son, Mr. Nakul Nath, lost this year’s Lok Sabha election from the family bastion of Chhindwara.
While there is no official word on what transpired in the meeting, there is speculation that Mr. Nath may be accommodated in the organisation.
Sources close to the Nath family said his rapport with Nationalist Congress Party (SP) supremo Sharad Pawar and Shiv Sena (Uddhav Balasaheb Thackeray) chief Uddhav Thackeray may be a factor in the tasks he is assigned.
“He was also quite active when the [Maha Vikas Aghadi] government was collapsing in Maharashtra [in 2022],” the insider added.
However, Mr. Nath’s name has not featured in the list of senior observers appointed by All India Congress Committee president Mallikarjun Kharge for the Maharashtra election. The Leader of the Opposition in the Madhya Pradesh Assembly Umang Singhar has been appointed as an observer for the Vidarbha region (Amravati and Nagpur), along with former Chhattisgarh CM Bhupesh Baghel and former Punjab CM Charanjit Singh Channi.
Assembly elections will be held in Maharashtra in a single phase on November 20, and in Jharkhand in two phases on November 13 and 20, the ECI has said.
Bypolls to Kerala’s Wayanad Lok Sabha seat, and 47 Assembly seats, including Vijaypur and Budhni, will be held on November 13, while byelections to Maharashtra’s Nanded Lok Sabha and Uttarakhand’s Kedarnath Assembly segments will be held on November 20.
Counting of votes for all the elections will take place on November 23.
The Budhni seat in Madhya Pradesh fell vacant after former CM and BJP leader Shivraj Singh Chouhan, currently a Union Cabinet Minister, was elected an MP from Vidisha, whereas the bypoll for Vijaypur was necessitated following Ramniwas Rawat’s resignation from his legislative membership in July, after he joined the BJP and was inducted into the State Cabinet.

UiPath (PATH) has recently been on Zacks.com's list of the most searched stocks. Therefore, you might want to consider some of the key factors that could influence the stock's performance in the near future.
Shares of this enterprise automation software developer have returned +2.1% over the past month versus the Zacks S&P 500 composite's +4.3% change. The Zacks Technology Services industry, to which UiPath belongs, has gained 9.2% over this period. Now the key question is: Where could the stock be headed in the near term?
While media releases or rumors about a substantial change in a company's business prospects usually make its stock 'trending' and lead to an immediate price change, there are always some fundamental facts that eventually dominate the buy-and-hold decision-making.
Revisions to Earnings Estimates
Rather than focusing on anything else, we at Zacks prioritize evaluating the change in a company's earnings projection. This is because we believe the fair value for its stock is determined by the present value of its future stream of earnings.
Our analysis is essentially based on how sell-side analysts covering the stock are revising their earnings estimates to take the latest business trends into account. When earnings estimates for a company go up, the fair value for its stock goes up as well. And when a stock's fair value is higher than its current market price, investors tend to buy the stock, resulting in its price moving upward. Because of this, empirical studies indicate a strong correlation between trends in earnings estimate revisions and short-term stock price movements.
UiPath is expected to post earnings of $0.07 per share for the current quarter, representing a year-over-year change of -41.7%. Over the last 30 days, the Zacks Consensus Estimate remained unchanged.
For the current fiscal year, the consensus earnings estimate of $0.41 points to a change of -24.1% from the prior year. Over the last 30 days, this estimate has remained unchanged.
For the next fiscal year, the consensus earnings estimate of $0.45 indicates a change of +10.6% from what UiPath is expected to report a year ago. Over the past month, the estimate has remained unchanged.
With an impressive externally audited track record, our proprietary stock rating tool -- the Zacks Rank -- is a more conclusive indicator of a stock's near-term price performance, as it effectively harnesses the power of earnings estimate revisions. The size of the recent change in the consensus estimate, along with three other factors related to earnings estimates, has resulted in a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) for UiPath.
The chart below shows the evolution of the company's forward 12-month consensus EPS estimate:
12 Month EPS
Projected Revenue Growth
Even though a company's earnings growth is arguably the best indicator of its financial health, nothing much happens if it cannot raise its revenues. It's almost impossible for a company to grow its earnings without growing its revenue for long periods. Therefore, knowing a company's potential revenue growth is crucial.
In the case of UiPath, the consensus sales estimate of $347.65 million for the current quarter points to a year-over-year change of +6.7%. The $1.42 billion and $1.58 billion estimates for the current and next fiscal years indicate changes of +8.7% and +11.2%, respectively.
Last Reported Results and Surprise History
UiPath reported revenues of $316.25 million in the last reported quarter, representing a year-over-year change of +10.1%. EPS of $0.04 for the same period compares with $0.09 a year ago.
Compared to the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $302.92 million, the reported revenues represent a surprise of +4.4%. The EPS surprise was +33.33%.
The company beat consensus EPS estimates in each of the trailing four quarters. The company topped consensus revenue estimates each time over this period.
Valuation
No investment decision can be efficient without considering a stock's valuation. Whether a stock's current price rightly reflects the intrinsic value of the underlying business and the company's growth prospects is an essential determinant of its future price performance.
While comparing the current values of a company's valuation multiples, such as price-to-earnings (P/E), price-to-sales (P/S) and price-to-cash flow (P/CF), with its own historical values helps determine whether its stock is fairly valued, overvalued, or undervalued, comparing the company relative to its peers on these parameters gives a good sense of the reasonability of the stock's price.
The Zacks Value Style Score (part of the Zacks Style Scores system), which pays close attention to both traditional and unconventional valuation metrics to grade stocks from A to F (an An is better than a B; a B is better than a C; and so on), is pretty helpful in identifying whether a stock is overvalued, rightly valued, or temporarily undervalued.
UiPath is graded D on this front, indicating that it is trading at a premium to its peers. Click here to see the values of some of the valuation metrics that have driven this grade.
Bottom Line
The facts discussed here and much other information on Zacks.com might help determine whether or not it's worthwhile paying attention to the market buzz about UiPath. However, its Zacks Rank #3 does suggest that it may perform in line with the broader market in the near term.

Dublin, Oct. 15, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Pet Monitoring Cameras - Global Strategic Business Report" has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The global market for Pet Monitoring Cameras was estimated at US$498.7 Million in 2023 and is projected to reach US$1.7 Billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 19.2% from 2023 to 2030.
The growing emotional bond between humans and pets has intensified the desire for constant connectivity. Pet owners view their animals as family members and are willing to invest in technologies that enhance pet care. Pet monitoring cameras cater to this need by offering functionalities such as motion detection alerts, night vision, and even treat dispensing. These advanced features not only provide peace of mind but also contribute to behavioral training and enrichment. The ability to capture and share memorable moments on social media platforms further adds to the appeal, making pet cameras a popular choice among tech-savvy pet enthusiasts.
How Are Technological Innovations Enhancing Pet Monitoring Cameras?
Technological advancements are significantly elevating the capabilities of pet monitoring cameras, making them more versatile and user-friendly. Integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning enables features like pet recognition and behavior analysis, alerting owners to unusual activities such as excessive barking or signs of distress. High-definition video quality, along with wide-angle lenses and pan-tilt-zoom functions, provides comprehensive coverage of the home environment. Some models incorporate environmental sensors that monitor room temperature and air quality, ensuring optimal living conditions for pets.
The advent of Internet of Things (IoT) technology has facilitated seamless connectivity between devices. Modern pet cameras often integrate with smart home ecosystems, allowing for synchronized operation with other devices like smart locks, lights, and thermostats. Voice assistant compatibility with platforms such as Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant enhances user convenience, enabling hands-free control through voice commands. Additionally, advancements in mobile app development have improved user interfaces, making it easier for owners to access features, receive notifications, and customize settings according to their pets` needs.
What Consumer Trends Are Driving the Demand for Pet Monitoring Cameras?
Shifting consumer attitudes toward pet ownership are a significant factor driving the demand for pet monitoring cameras. Pets are increasingly considered integral members of the family, leading owners to seek products that ensure their safety and happiness. The rise in pet adoption rates, particularly among millennials and urban dwellers, has expanded the market for pet care technologies. Busy lifestyles and increased time spent away from home due to work or travel have heightened the need for solutions that offer reassurance about pets` well-being.
Social media influence is another trend propelling market growth. The desire to capture and share engaging pet content has made high-quality video capabilities a sought-after feature. Additionally, the growing awareness of separation anxiety in pets has led owners to adopt technologies that enable remote interaction, such as two-way audio and treat tossing functions. The emphasis on smart home integration reflects consumers` preference for interconnected devices that simplify daily routines. The willingness to spend on premium pet care products indicates a broader trend of prioritizing pet wellness and embracing innovative solutions that enhance the pet-owner relationship.
Growth in the Pet Monitoring Cameras Market Is Driven by Several Factors
The growth in the pet monitoring cameras market is driven by several factors. Technological advancements are at the forefront, with innovations such as artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning enhancing product capabilities. AI enables features like pet facial recognition and behavior analysis, allowing cameras to distinguish between different pets and detect unusual activities like excessive barking or destructive behavior. IoT connectivity facilitates seamless integration with smart home ecosystems, enabling users to control devices remotely and receive real-time updates on their pets` activities. Enhanced functionalities like high-definition video, two-way audio communication, treat dispensing, and environmental monitoring (temperature and air quality sensors) are making these devices more appealing to consumers seeking comprehensive pet care solutions.
End-use trends show a significant rise in pet ownership globally, especially among millennials and urban populations who view pets as integral family members. This demographic is more inclined to invest in premium products that enhance their pets` well-being. The increasing incidence of pet anxiety and behavioral issues due to owners` busy lifestyles has heightened the demand for solutions that allow for remote interaction and monitoring. Additionally, the growing awareness about pet safety and health is driving owners to adopt technologies that provide not just surveillance but also contribute to the physical and emotional health of their pets.

As the northeast monsoon began lashing the city, south Chennai continued to bear the brunt once again, with several areas flooded on Tuesday. Several areas of the OMR remained cut off from the rest of the city by evening though the rains had abated by then.
While a few regions that usually get flooded such as Valasaravakkam and Virugambakkam had less waterlogging, a few others in the far south, particularly, Kannagi Nagar in Thoraipakkam and Velachery were inundated. . Relief centres in Thoraipakkam were not functioning owing to inundation, according to volunteers with the Greater Chennai Corporation.
In AGS Colony, Velachery, water rose up to 2-3 feet, but began receding after motor pumps were deployed. Geetha Ganesh, of AGS Colony, suggested that Velachery Lake must be emptied before the monsoon sets in otherwise waterlogging issue would persist as the rainwater has nowhere to drain into. Regarding this, a Corporation official said the Water Resources Department had been informed of the need for precautionary action and they would take a call based on the upcoming showers.
On OMR, Sholinganallur, Kandanchavadi, and several areas along Rajiv Gandhi Salai, motorists faced long delays due to water-clogged stretches. GCC officials and Council members flagged accumulation of plastic waste and garbage in stormwater drains as the main reasons for clogging and stagnation. The senior official said, “Heavy rain in a short span has caused the inundation. The issues are being monitored and waterlogging will be relieved within a few hours,” OMR Residents’ Associations also flagged lack of stormwater drain in a few parts as well.
A senior official for Chennai south stated that the Narayanapuram Lake was being pre-emptied and hence, there may be some respite for people around that area, even as heavy showers are predicted for Wednesday.
Health and Family Welfare Minister Ma. Subramanian visited Maduravoyal and Valasaravakkam areas: waterbodies, canals and relief centres. Meanwhile, milk packets were not distributed to any of these areas, several residents claimed.
Chennai south MP Thamizhachi Thangapandian said, “Chennai is 100% ready to face rain, medical camps will be held in several areas and milk packets are being distributed to all areas.” She has urged residents to reach out to her with greivances on her number 9344833508 and email ID: contact@ithamizhachi.com

The TEXpress Lanes have majorly impacted what used to be the highway ranked no. 14 on the list of most congested metros in the United States.
Public-private partnerships (P3s) like TEXpress allow local governments to have access to the technical expertise, innovation, and experience that is not typically available within the public sector. P3s also bring in private capital needed to fund these large-scale projects to expand the capacity for growth. By creating local jobs, supporting local subcontractors, and stimulating further economic activity, these infrastructures serve as economic engines for communities.
TEXpress has effectively improved the highway experience for drivers across the region with 74% of drivers on the express lanes reporting a positive experience and 65% of drivers on these lanes managing to spend under $20 per month on tolls.
TEXpress has had an economic impact of $20.2 billion on the region, with 104,500 FTE jobs supported, and $5.9 billion in earned wages.
I'm proud to say that Ferrovial has a 20-year track record of successfully delivering complex projects across the U.S., replicating the TEXpress model in both North Carolina and Virginia.
Our distinct business model allows us to tackle the most complex projects in a way that creates the most value. We have a strong understanding of project risks and how to mitigate them. We have achieved a 12% annual total shareholder return in the last 10 years as a result of our value-oriented investment process, financial discipline, and best-in class capabilities.
We look forward to continuing our work with leaders who have a vision for the future of infrastructure, helping their communities flourish as their populations grow.

AHMEDABAD: In a significant development, Dr. Pravin Togadia, a once-prominent Hindutva hardliner who distanced himself from the Sangh Parivar after resigning as the international working president of the Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP), made a visit to the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) headquarters on 12th October after a six-year hiatus.
During his visit, Togadia held detailed discussions with RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat, delving into a range of topics including Hindutva, women empowerment, and other pressing issues.
In an exclusive conversation with TNIE, Dr. Praveen Togadia stated, "Both the RSS chief and I decided it was time to meet, so we did in Nagpur on Dussehra. Our meeting wasn't prompted by any intermediary, reason, or political agenda. The RSS and I have been working on the same issues. During our discussions, I had extensive talks with the Sangh chief on Hindutva, particularly the situation of Hindus in Bangladesh."
Togadia said that in addition to Hindutva, the Sangh chief and he also discussed women's safety and initiatives to train women to become strong, empowered citizens. "We delved into health-related matters and other national issues as well. Since both our organizations and the RSS are focused on Hindutva, there is potential for collaboration on certain fronts in the future," he said.
Speaking on the Ram temple issue, Togadia stated that he congratulated the Sangh chief on the progress of the Ram temple and the construction of the temple has united the Hindu community, which had previously been divided along caste lines.
Addressing his meeting with a senior Union minister, Togadia clarified, "Yes, I attended a Dussehra event where I met him, but the meeting was not political. Since leaving the Vishwa Hindu Parishad, I haven't engaged with any leader or activist from the government or the organization, but my connections with them go back 40 years. Naturally, when we meet, there's a lot to discuss."
Pravin Togadia, an Ahmedabad-based cancer surgeon and firebrand Hindutva leader, has had a turbulent relationship with the RSS and its affiliated organizations over the years.
Pravin Togadia, once an RSS swayamsevak in Ahmedabad, was inducted into the VHP in 1983, while Narendra Modi joined the BJP in 1984. Both were key players during the BJP's rise to power in Gujarat in 1995. When Shankersinh Vaghela, a rebel BJP leader, became Chief Minister with Congress support, he jailed Togadia for allegedly assaulting BJP politicians—Modi campaigned for his release.
Togadia, later appointed VHP General Secretary, supported Modi when he was sidelined by Keshubhai Patel and helped him become Gujarat’s Chief Minister in 2001. Togadia’s influence extended to Modi's government, with his ally Gordhan Zadafia appointed as Minister of State for Home.
Togadia even hailed the government as the beginning of a "Hindu Rashtra." However, after Modi’s 2002 election victory, Togadia’s influence waned as Modi distanced himself, dropping Zadafia and curbing VHP's sway in Gujarat, particularly during his second term, with actions against VHP activists. Togadia, in turn, mocked Modi's attempts at reaching out to Muslims through his Sadbhavana initiatives.
In 2018, Pravin Togadia parted ways with the Sangh Parivar after a significant leadership shift within the Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP). Former Himachal Pradesh Governor V.S. Kokje was elected as VHP's international president, marking the end of Togadia's decades-long dominance.
His nominee, incumbent Raghava Reddy, suffered a major defeat in the first election held in 52 years. Togadia, who had been with the VHP for over three decades and served as its international working president since 2011, saw his influence wane as Kokje took over the reins.
After his split with the RSS, Pravin Togadia founded the Antarashtriya Hindu Parishad (AHP) and currently serves as its president. The organization, under his leadership, has established a presence in several states across India.

Family of Tennessee employee who died in Hurricane Helene flooding files wrongful death lawsuit
The family of a Tennessee employee who was killed by catastrophic flooding caused by Hurricane Helene has filed a wrongful death lawsuit
NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- The family of a Tennessee employee who was killed by catastrophic flooding caused by Hurricane Helene has filed a wrongful death lawsuit against the company he worked for, arguing that workers were forced to stay at their posts even when managers knew conditions were becoming dangerous.
Johnny Peterson was among the Impact Plastics employees who died Sept. 27 after Helene's flooding hit Erwin, a small, rural town in eastern Tennessee. Many of the surviving employees have stated they were not allowed to leave the plant in time to avoid the storm's impact. Instead, it wasn't until water had flooded the plant's parking lot and the power went out that managers sent workers home.
The raging waters swept 11 people away and only five were rescued. Two of them are confirmed dead and are part of a toll across six states that is nearly 250 dead. Four others from the factory are still missing after they were washed away in Erwin, where dozens of people about a mile away were also rescued off the roof of a hospital.
“Based on information we’ve uncovered, including accounts from surviving employees, we believe this tragedy could have been avoided,” Alex Little, an attorney representing Peterson's family, said in a statement. “Impact Plastics was aware of the flood risks, and while employees requested permission to leave, the company failed to act. We will hold them accountable.”
The suit, filed Monday, names Impact Plastics and company owner Gerald O'Connor as defendants. O’Connor's attorney did not immediately respond to an email requesting comment Tuesday.
The 28-page suit argues that Impact Plastics had no required plan to safely evacuate employees even though the plant was located in a flood plain and regularly experienced water creeping into its parking lot. Furthermore, the suit claims that while local schools and other businesses announced closures because of Hurricane Helene, Impact Plastics instructed its employees to report to work because the company “wanted to meet order deadlines."
The suit also provides a sobering breakdown of Peterson’s final moments with his family, including text messages revealing his fears that he would not escape the flood waters.
Just hours prior, the lawsuit says employees began receiving notifications around 10 a.m. urging all who could to evacuate to higher ground. At around 10:30 a.m., employees were instructed to move their cars because the parking lot was flooding.
The lawsuit goes on to claim that senior management, including O'Connor, had “stealthily exited the building” around 11:35 a.m. and employees believed they were dismissed from work. Peterson, who had stepped outside, went back into the building to help employees “trapped inside” but eventually became trapped himself after the water made it impossible to leave by car.
Peterson managed to climb onto a bed of a semi-trailer attempting to escape the area.
“Johnny knew he could not survive much longer as the water levels continued to swell and pummel the semi-trailer. He texted his daughter for the last time at 1:17 p.m. ‘I love you allllll,’ he managed to type out. This was the last text Alexa Peterson received from her father," the lawsuit stated.
“Johnny’s father tried in desperation to reach emergency services but could not. At 1:27 p.m., he asked his son ‘You ok,’ to which his son responded ‘Not for Long.’ This was the last text Johnny sent to anyone," the lawsuit continued.
The lawsuit comes after the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation announced earlier this month that it was investigating allegations involving Impact Plastics at the direction of the local prosecutor. The state’s workplace safety office has also opened its own probe into the circumstances behind the deaths.
Impact Plastics has maintained that it monitored weather conditions on Sept. 27 and that managers dismissed employees “when water began to cover the parking lot and the adjacent service road, and the plant lost power.”
Meanwhile, O’Connor has said no employees were forced to keep working and they were evacuated at least 45 minutes before the massive force of the flood hit the industrial park.

A multi-departmental probe into the circumstances that led to the accident of the Mysuru-Darbhanga Bagmati Express at Kavarapettai in Southern Railway’s Chennai Division on the night of October 11, 2024, has found nuts and bolts “missing” from a crucial point on the railway line, suggesting a possible sabotage angle.
According to railway sources, the probe pertains to the rear-end collision of the Bagmati Express, which passed the green signal set for the main line at 90 kmph speed but ran into the loop line and hit an empty goods train stabled there. The accident resulted in the derailment of about 13 coaches and injuries to some passengers. A parcel-cum-power car went up in flames in the impact of the collision.
As usual with train accidents, an investigation by a team of multi-departmental officials was ordered into the incident. A team of seven officials, including four Senior Section Engineers, who inspected the scene, submitted a 16-page joint observation report October 12, 2024.
No conclusive finding
However, the team did not come to any conclusion on what led to the accident. Their findings were mainly confined to the aftermath of the accident in terms of damage to coaches and other railway assets.
The report did not mention or elaborate certain crucial points such as: how the particular point on the railway line got set to loop line when the train was given signal to run on the main line; what triggered the fire in the parcel-cum-power car; panel switch positions at the Kavarapettai Station Master’s cabin; and analysis of data logger that contain vital data on the signal and live train movement, the sources said.
Even as the Southern Railway General Manager R.N. Singh went on record saying that “something unusual happened and the train, instead of taking the main line, entered the loop line... there was some change in the point setting. It happened by some fault or some other reason”, the probe team did not give any prima facie explanation of the same.
‘Missing’ nuts and bolts
The report explained in detail about Point No 51-B, the point on the railway line near the accident spot, and stated that “hammering” marks were seen on the D-bracket, tongue rail and bracket bolt. Nuts and bolts that fix the tongue rail clamp were found “missing”. A bolt of the D-bracket was found to be loose. Lock and indication rods of the same bracket were dislocated and found several metres away, the sources said.
The investigating officials also pointed to a few other “missing” bolts or nuts and fresh cut marks on a hose pipe connecting point machine with cable termination box.It was not made clear whether the damages were caused consequent to the train accident. The report in writing, signed by all seven officials part of the investigating team, was submitted on the same day of the accident, the railway sources added.
Asked for his comments on the joint observation report, a senior railway officer said that though a sabotage angle could not be ruled out, nuts and bolts could also have been thrown far away in heavy impact of the accident. “It is possible that the probe team could not locate the nuts and bolts in darkness and recorded them as missing in their report. Since Commissioner of Railway Safety is conducting an inquiry into the accident, the probe team might not have given their conclusive findings on the accident,” the officer said.
Amid suspicion of a sabotage, officials of the National Investigation Agency (NIA) too inspected the scene of accident. However, no case was registered till late on Monday, sources in the Central agency told The Hindu.

Simmons has been handed a short-term contract until next year's Champions Trophy, the BCB added.
He replaces Chandika Hathurusingha, who was suspended on disciplinary grounds, ESPNCricinfo reported earlier on Tuesday.
"Hathurusingha has two counts of misconduct," the website quoted BCB president Faruque Ahmed as saying. "First is about an assault on a player. Secondly, he took too many leaves, more than what was in his contract."
The BCB did not confirm that Hathurusingha had been sacked, but said Simmons would arrive in Dhaka on Wednesday and help the team prepare for their upcoming home Test series against South Africa.
"I have had the opportunity to speak to Phil Simmons and have listened to his cricket philosophy and ideas. His extensive coaching experience, vision and proven track record of success make him an ideal choice for this role," Ahmed said in the statement.
Hathurusingha, who coached Bangladesh from 2014-2017, returned for his second stint in January last year but Ahmed questioned BCB's decision to re-appoint the 56-year-old.
Ahmed took charge of the BCB in August following Nazmul Hasan Papon's resignation amid political upheaval in the country and said Hathurusingha should not continue as head coach.
Under Hathurusingha, Bangladesh failed to get past the group stage in the last two white-ball World Cups but registered a historic 2-0 Test series win over Pakistan in September - their first overseas series victory in the format in 15 years.
However, India then whitewashed Bangladesh at home in a two-match Test series and secured a clean sweep against captain Najmul Hossain Shanto's side in a three-match Twenty20 international series last week.
Simmons, who was in charge when West Indies became T20 world champions in 2016, started his international coaching career with Zimbabwe in 2004 and coached several other teams such as Ireland and Afghanistan.

Royal Enfield is all geared up to make a significant leap into the electric vehicle (EV) market, with plans to unveil its first-ever electric motorcycle on November 4, 2024.
Several media reports indicate that design patents for Royal Enfield’s inaugural electric bike were leaked, leading to speculation about what the upcoming model might look like. It is anticipated that the motorcycle is likely to be a concept vehicle, providing the foundation for a production model expected to hit the market in the next couple of years.
As per a previously leaked patent design, the motorcycle seems to combine a modern classic aesthetic with a distinct retro bobber-style design. According to NDTV, the frame of the bike arches over what appears to be a 'fuel tank,' which is expected to serve as storage space. The battery and motor seem to be integrated, forming a stressed member structure, with the rear wheel powered by a belt drive. While the patent image reveals a single-seat layout, the presence of a saree guard suggests an optional pillion seat could be available.
One of the standout features, as highlighted by NDTV, is the use of a girder fork—a component rarely seen in modern motorcycles but commonly used over a century ago. Additionally, the rear of the bike is likely to feature an aluminium swingarm, along with a monoshock that is discreetly tucked away. Thin tyres, designed to improve rolling efficiency and agility, further hint at the bike’s modern engineering approach, although the final production model may differ from the leaked images.
Internally codenamed 'Electrik01', the electric motorcycle is expected to enter production within the next year or so, with a market launch anticipated in early 2026. While details remain speculative, this new electric offering marks a bold step forward for Royal Enfield as it ventures into the growing electric mobility sector.
Motorcycle enthusiasts worldwide will be keenly awaiting November 4, when Royal Enfield officially reveals this exciting addition to its line-up.

QB Stock Market Week 7: Has Dak Prescott peaked? Daniel Jones is done
The run-first offenses finally let their quarterbacks cook.
For most of the season, the Chargers, the Lions and the Patriots have asked their quarterbacks to step aside and let the running game lead the way. But not this past weekend. In Week 6, those signal-callers got to step into the limelight. Or rather, they stepped up in the pocket and let it rip. And they all played well — in some cases outstanding.
It was a week full of changes for the NFL and for the QB Stock Market.
For these rankings, we weigh the most recent performances with 30% importance, while 70% is applied to the rest of 2024. One question holds importance above all others: What have you done for your team lately?
Previous weeks: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
1. Lamar Jackson, Baltimore Ravens (↔)
2. Jayden Daniels, Washington Commanders (↔)
3. Brock Purdy, San Francisco 49ers (⬆️ 3)
4. C.J. Stroud, Houston Texans (⬆️ 4)
If Stroud was prepping for a job interview, he should have no problem addressing his biggest weakness. You know the difficulty of that question — where you try to reveal a fault that ideally builds you up. I work too hard. I'm having trouble saying no. I am too detail-oriented.
Well, Stroud is too quick.
We saw that against the Patriots on a third-and-manageable in the fourth quarter. New England brought six rushers — an all-out blitz. Stroud knew it and got the ball out before tight end Dalton Schultz was out of his break. Schultz lazily got his head around and wasn't ready. Too quick.
But that's been true of Stroud for some time. He's a fast processor and has a quick release. It's what makes him so hard to defend. What made him even more difficult this week was the return of Joe Mixon. He brought balance back to this offense and made it feel as though Nico Collins' absence would be no big deal. I didn't realize just how much Mixon could change this offense, but he accounted for over 150 yards from scrimmage and helped Stroud lead a blowout.
5. Joe Burrow, Cincinnati Bengals (⬇️ 2)
6. Josh Allen, Buffalo Bills (⬆️ 1)
7. Sam Darnold, Minnesota Vikings (⬇️ 2)
8. Baker Mayfield, Tampa Bay Buccaneers (⬇️ 4)
9. Jordan Love, Green Bay Packers (⬆️ 15)
10. Jared Goff, Detroit Lions (⬆️ 7)
11. Justin Herbert, Los Angeles Chargers (⬆️ 8)
It was a beautiful blend of Jim Harbaugh's meat-and-potatoes football and Herbert's Oregon-spread playmaking.
The two most important Chargers are figuring out how to make their football cultures mesh.
Because of that, there might not have been a smoother operator at quarterback on Sunday. He was in total control of the Chargers' win over the Broncos. He attempted just one pass in the fourth quarter, largely because he'd done all that he needed to do in the opening 45 minutes. Herbert finished 21 of 34 for 237 yards and one touchdown. He probably should have had three touchdowns if not for a rough performance from rookie receiver Ladd McConkey. The rookie receiver dropped a deep pass in the end zone and, earlier in the game, decided not to dive for the pylon at the goal line and got stuffed cutting back.
But that's a reminder of what Herbert is managing at receiver — unproven players. And he's doing what he can, including his prettiest pass of the day to running back Kimani Vidal for a 38-yard touchdown.
This was the first time the Chargers have let Herbert rip the ball around. He had not attempted 30 or more passes, or consequently tallied 200 yards, at any point this season. Was it out of necessity, with the run game stalling? Or might we see more games like this from Herbert?
12. Geno Smith, Seattle Seahawks (⬇️ 3)
13. Kirk Cousins, Atlanta Falcons (⬇️ 3)
14. Patrick Mahomes, Kansas City Chiefs (⬇️ 2)
15. Caleb Williams, Chicago Bears (⬇️ 1)
In the past two weeks, Williams has scored six touchdowns. That's as many as Patrick Mahomes, Justin Herbert, Jalen Hurts and Jayden Daniels have thrown all season.
I get it: Williams has kicked the crap out of the league's worst defenses. The Jaguars and the Panthers have a mess to clean up on their back end. But Williams only made things worse for their defensive coordinators, with masterful games in consecutive weeks.
He started the season missing open receivers, but in a short time, he has evolved into a tight-window thrower. Against the Jags, 10.3% of his passes were into tight windows. And he finished with a completion percentage of 12.5% over expected, per Next Gen Stats. You could see his arm strength and decisiveness on chunk gains to Rome Odunze and Keenan Allen on third-down conversions.
The lingering weakness? Williams is fixated on the deep left portion of the field, where he's 2 of 13 with three of his five interceptions, including one this past Sunday. It's bad. And resisting the temptation to go deep — and/or recalibrating his timing so he doesn't short-arm it — will be key in avoiding turnovers.
16. Dak Prescott, Dallas Cowboys (⬇️ 5)
The Lions broke him.
Given the lack of run support and the poor offensive line play, Dak was performing admirably this year. He drew some criticism for not showing up when it mattered most and padding his stats in garbage time. But this past weekend against Detroit showed just how bad the Cowboys can be if Prescott doesn't elevate them. He truly played poorly. And that's why Dallas took a shellacking.
It started with an interception in the low red zone where the Lions fooled him into throwing the ball. On the next drive, he nearly threw an interception to Lions linebacker Alex Anzalone while the two nearby Dallas receivers knocked each other over.
It summed up the state of the Cowboys in one play.
During the second quarter, as the Lions pulled away, Dak had a stretch where he dropped back 10 times for two sacks, two completions and minus-10 yards of offense.
Without Prescott and CeeDee Lamb playing perfect football, the Cowboys didn't stand a chance.
17. Aaron Rodgers, New York Jets (⬇️ 4)
18. Jalen Hurts, Philadelphia Eagles (⬆️ 3)
19. Kyler Murray, Arizona Cardinals (⬇️ 4)
20. Matthew Stafford, Los Angeles Rams (⬆️ 3)
21. Justin Fields, Pittsburgh Steelers (⬇️ 1)
22. Drake Maye, New England Patriots (new)
For the first two drives, this had the makings of a disastrous debut. Maye went three-and-out and then threw an interception on his second series. But by the end of the second quarter, while operating in the two-minute drill, Maye's nerves were gone and his talent, instincts and development kicked in.
He saw a matchup he liked in coverage that was advantageous for the offense — and he pulled the trigger. That's how Maye scored his first touchdown: a 40-yard dime to Kayshon Boutte.
It was a smart, decisive read and a pinpoint pass with ample arm strength. It was everything Maye was chalked up to be.
The game had highs and lows: three touchdowns and three turnovers from Maye.
So now comes the hard part. This performance confirmed how good Maye can be — and also how bad he can be. We can't absolve him entirely from the messy drives when he was jittery. Quieting those nerves in high-pressure situations will be an important skill for him to learn. There will be plenty of opportunities, given that the Patriots decided to play him this year without a supporting cast.
Now, they must take the utmost care in developing him into his best version. Because there are so many pitfalls for a young QB who feels he has to put the entire offense on his shoulders. And that's what he'll have to do.
23. Trevor Lawrence, Jacksonville Jaguars (⬇️ 1)
24. Joe Flacco, Indianapolis Colts (⬆️ 1)
25. Bo Nix, Denver Broncos (⬆️ 4)
26. Daniel Jones, New York Giants (⬇️ 8)
We're well past the point of thinking Jones will be consistent from play to play or week to week.
He's up. He's down. He's Danny Dimes. He's Danny Crimes against the Giants fan base.
But the film from the Bengals game should be about enough for the coaching staff to give up on Jones. There were open receivers that he either failed to target or failed to hit with a catchable pass. At times, coach Brian Daboll dialed up plays that simply beat out the defense. Those were what Jones could execute. But the quarterback largely detracts from this offense, with a blend of bad decisions and bad passes. And, occasionally, he'll make a bad decision and a bad pass on the same play — and that's when his turnovers and turnover-worthy plays have happened, including against Cincinnati in the red zone when he got hit backpedaling and heaved up a mind-numbingly bad floater for the Bengals defense to easily field.
His total expected points added is -16.2 on the season, per Next Gen Stats. His completion percentage over expected is -2.7%. He has completed 62.1% of his passes for 1,343 yards, six touchdowns and four interceptions. None of that looks atrocious — until you watch the misses from this game. I shiver to think about what Jones would do without his elite run game.

Miranda Lambert Gushes Over 'Best Friend' and Husband Brendan McLoughlin: '33 Looks So Good on You'
Miranda Lambert is happy to gush over her husband all the time!
On October 14, the country music star, 40, took to Instagram to celebrate her husband Brendan McLoughlin’s 33rd birthday with a heartfelt tribute.
“HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my best friend, travel buddy, home cookin, pasta makin, animal lovin, down for anything, warmest, kindest, city gone country boy! Brendan, you are a light in every room you walk in. I’m so lucky to see that smile of yours every day forever. Thanks for being you. 🩵🤠 33 looks so good on you!” she penned alongside a carousel of unfiltered photos of her husband.
Lambert's message showed how much she cherishes their relationship.
However, the singer previously shared McLoughlin's aversion to grand birthday gatherings.
“He’s not fun, he doesn’t like to celebrate,” she said earlier this month, planning to enjoy a cozy night to mark the occasion instead.
“That’s what makes me happy,” Lambert added.
Want OK! each day? Sign up here!
The couple's journey together began in November 2018 when they met on the set of Good Morning America.
Their whirlwind romance culminated in a secret wedding just three months later in January 2019.
The "Somethin' Bad" vocalist has also been candid about her relationship dynamics.
“Brendan’s the best. He’s down for anything, super happy and supportive, in the best way. Let’s me do my thing, but is right there beside me, and it’s really awesome,” she previously told E! News.
This mutual respect and support have been pivotal in their partnership, particularly after Lambert’s highly publicized first marriage.
“I was married before, and it was a huge wedding and everything was very public. So was my divorce. I learned then that it’s not for everybody else. This is my actual life. With Brendan, I made it a point to keep it as private as I could for as long as I could,” she remarked, reflecting on her prior relationship with Blake Shelton.
Lambert also appreciates McLoughlin’s straightforwardness.
“My husband tells me the truth. He gives me harsh reality, and I love it,” she noted. “I like to say he calls me on my s---, which I love because everybody needs somebody in their life like a truth-teller. He's very New York about it.”

Priyanka Gandhi to make electoral debut from Wayanad as EC announces bypoll
NEW DELHI: With the Election Commission (EC) announcing the bypoll to the Wayanad Lok Sabha seat, the stage is set for Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi Vadra's electoral debut from the Kerala constituency that could see her enter Parliament five years after joining active politics.
Days after the Lok Sabha polls, the Congress announced in June that Rahul Gandhi will retain the Rae Bareli parliamentary constituency in Uttar Pradesh and vacate the Wayanad seat in Kerala, from where his sister Priyanka Gandhi will make her electoral debut.
If elected, this will be the first time that Priyanka Gandhi will enter Parliament as an MP.
This will also be the first time that the three Gandhi family members -- Sonia, Rahul and Priyanka -- will be in Parliament together.
The EC on Tuesday announced bypolls to the Wayanad and Nanded Lok Sabha seats as well as in 48 Assembly constituencies.
The bypoll to the Wayanad parliamentary seat and 47 Assembly seats will be held on November 13, along with the first phase of polling for the Jharkhand Assembly.
Since her entry into active politics in 2019, Priyanka Gandhi has been in the past projected as a possible challenger to Prime Minister Narendra Modi from Varanasi and also, as a successor to Congress veteran Sonia Gandhi in the family pocket borough of Rae Bareli.
However, the Congress has decided to field her from Wayanad, the parliamentary seat that her elder brother Rahul won for two consecutive elections.
Priyanka Gandhi was earlier the Congress in-charge of Uttar Pradesh.
She emerged as the party's strategist and star campaigner, helping the Congress make impressive gains in some states as well as in the Lok Sabha polls held earlier in the year.
After her name was announced for the Wayanad bypoll, Priyanka Gandhi had said, "I am not nervous at all... I am very happy to be able to represent Wayanad. All I will say is that I will not let them feel his (Rahul Gandhi's) absence. I will work hard and try my best to make everybody happy and be a good representative."
"I have a good relationship with Rae Bareli as I worked there for 20 years and that relationship will never break," she had said, adding that both she and her brother will work together in both the constituencies.
After joining active politics, Priyanka Gandhi was made the Congress general secretary in-charge of the crucial eastern Uttar Pradesh in January 2019 and then as the general secretary in-charge of the entire state.
Though the performance of her party in the 2019 Lok Sabha polls was not very good, she continued with her efforts to strengthen the organisation at the grassroots level.
In December 2023, Priyanka Gandhi was made a Congress general secretary "without a portfolio".
She emerged as the party's key strategist and later, its star campaigner for the 2024 Lok Sabha polls.
She also helped strengthen the organisation and led the party's campaign in Himachal Pradesh, where the grand old party wrested power from the BJP.
Her campaign helped the Congress in the general election, in which the party got 99 seats, up from 52 in 2019.
Priyanka Gandhi is married to businessman Robert Vadra.
With the Congress putting up a surprisingly good show in the Lok Sabha polls, Priyanka Gandhi cemented her position as the party's talisman.
Countering Modi over his "gold and mangalsutra" remarks during the Lok Sabha poll campaign, an emotionally-charged Priyanka Gandhi had reminded the voters that her mother, Sonia Gandhi, had sacrificed her mangalsutra for the country.
The Congress general secretary did not take the electoral plunge at that time but opted to contest the Wayanad bypoll after guiding her party to a stronger position in Parliament, compared to its tally of seats in 2014 and 2019.
Discussing her childhood, the pain of her father Rajiv Gandhi's assassination and her mother's grief, she had steered the Congress's campaign during the general election, adroitly walking the tightrope between striking a familial chord and discussing national-level issues, and proved to be a strategist, orator and mass mobiliser -- all rolled into one.
As the curtains came down on the 2024 general election, analysts totted up the numbers.
Priyanka Gandhi took part in 108 public meetings and roadshows.
She campaigned in 16 states and a Union territory, and also addressed two party workers' conferences in Amethi and Rae Bareli in Uttar Pradesh.
Most of her speeches were akin to a conversation with the crowd, establishing a connect and giving people the impression that here was a person who was known to them, someone sharing her feelings and thoughts with them.
She had also accompanied Rahul Gandhi to Wayanad following devastating landslides in the region and has been involved in the relief-and-rescue work launched by the party.
Priyanka Gandhi's poll debut comes at a time when the Congress has been jolted by an electoral defeat in Haryana and it would be interesting to see if she would be able to steer the Wayanad campaign, along with the canvassing for the Jharkhand and Maharashtra polls, to put the grand old party back on track.

Harris zeroes in on Black men, Trump focuses on women as both seek to fire up key voting blocs
Kamala Harris and Donald Trump are both making pushes to energize key constituencies that their allies worry might be slipping away
DETROIT -- DETROIT (AP) — Kamala Harris and Donald Trump both pushed Tuesday to energize key constituencies that their allies worry might be slipping away, with the vice president looking to reach Black men and the former president focusing on women.
Harris will appear at a town hall-style event in Detroit hosted by the morning radio program “The Breakfast Club," featuring Charlamagne Tha God, who is especially popular with Black males. Trump, meanwhile, will tape a Fox News Channel town hall featuring an all-female audience and moderated by host Harris Faulkner.
The vice president was also scheduled to stop by a Black-owned business in Detroit. A day earlier, she visited LegendErie, a coffee shop and record store in Erie, Pennsylvania, where she met with the husband-and-wife owners, a local pastor and other community leaders.
Harris’ running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, is unveiling his ticket’s plan to improve the lives of rural Americans. It's yet another sign that in a razor-tight race, each side is trying to cut into the other's margins of support with different voting blocs while shoring up traditional areas of strength.
The vice president's “Breakfast Club” appearance comes one day after she announced a series of new proposals dubbed the “Opportunity Agenda for Black Men.” The ideas are meant to offer the demographic more economic advantages, including providing forgivable business loans of up to $20,000 for entrepreneurs and creating more apprenticeships. The plan would also support the study of sickle cell and other diseases more common in Black men.
The focus on Black men sharpened last week when former President Barack Obama campaigned for Harris in Pittsburgh and said he wanted to speak “some truths” to Black male voters, suggesting some " just aren’t feeling the idea of having a woman as president.”
The vice president’s campaign says it doesn’t believe Black men will flip in large numbers to supporting Trump, especially after strongly backing Democrat Joe Biden, with Harris as his running mate, in 2020. They are more concerned about a measurable percentage of Black males opting not to vote at all.
Sen. Raphael Warnock, the first Black senator elected from the state of Georgia, issued a stark warning Tuesday to other Black men that voting for Trump will be “literally dangerous” for them.
“He will be dangerous every time you get in the car and you deal with the issue of driving while Black,” Warnock said.
He argued that Democrats’ job is to reach Black men who are deciding whether to vote at all. “The issue is folks have got to understand that if you do not vote, it’s a vote for Donald Trump,” Warnock said.
Harris’ campaign has also placed special emphasis on other male voters, including creating “ Hombres con Harris,” or “Men with Harris,” a group that is using celebrities and key elected officials to organize events on her behalf meant to appeal to Hispanic men.
As she campaigns in Detroit, Harris faces other potential challenges in Michigan, including Arab activists angered by the Biden administration’s full-throated support for Israel in its war with Hamas in Gaza. Dearborn, outside Detroit, is the largest Arab-majority city in the U.S.
Still, the vice president's campaign expects to see strong support on Election Day from white, college-educated voters in Michigan at rates that might exceed Biden's in 2020, and she hopes to expand the margin by which Trump lost many of the state's key suburbs four years ago.
She's also seized on insults Trump made about Detroit last week while campaigning there. He said if Harris wins, “Our whole country will end up being like Detroit." He added, "You’re going to have a mess on your hands.”
Trump has maligned cities hosting him before, but Harris said it was proof he was “unfit to be president.” Her campaign also released an ad voiced by actor Courtney B. Vance, a Detroit native, that declares: “What Donald Trump doesn’t understand, or care to learn, is that when he said, ‘Our whole country will end up being like Detroit if she’s your president.’ That he should be so ... lucky.”
Trump is scheduled to return to Detroit later this week for a rally.
The former president figures to do well with rural voters, but team Harris hopes to at least keep things closer. And while Harris’ support among women is strong, Trump aims to keep her from running up the score.
Trump has seen his support among women, especially in the suburbs of many key swing states, soften since his term in the White House. A September AP-NORC poll found more than half of registered voters who are women have a somewhat or very favorable view of Harris, while only about one-third have a favorable view of Trump.
To reverse the trend, Trump has sought to cast himself as being able to personally shield women from various threats, as when he suggested at a rally in Pennsylvania last month that women in America, “will no longer be abandoned, lonely or scared. You will no longer be in danger.”
“You will be protected, and I will be your protector," Trump said then. He's also suggested that, should he win, women will no longer have a reason to think about abortion, after three Supreme Court judges that he appointed helped in 2022 to overturn the landmark Roe v. Wade decision that had guaranteed a woman's right to the procedure.
Elsewhere on Tuesday, Trump has an economic speech in Chicago and a rally in Atlanta.

Hello my friends,
I had so much fun recording today’s Q&A solo episode! The questions you submitted were amazing, and I go deeper with you than I ever expected. In the show I share everything from my family’s kitchen clean-up routine, to my favorite solo meals, tips for setting boundaries with kids, the theme of my life right now (and what I’m letting go), how my new cookbook influenced my relationship to food, my current favorite creature comforts, my (non)-shopping fashion hack, and so much more.

Royal Enfield is all geared up to make a significant leap into the electric vehicle (EV) market, with plans to unveil its first-ever electric motorcycle on November 4, 2024.
Several media reports indicate that design patents for Royal Enfield’s inaugural electric bike were leaked, leading to speculation about what the upcoming model might look like. It is anticipated that the motorcycle is likely to be a concept vehicle, providing the foundation for a production model expected to hit the market in the next couple of years.
As per a previously leaked patent design, the motorcycle seems to combine a modern classic aesthetic with a distinct retro bobber-style design. According to NDTV, the frame of the bike arches over what appears to be a 'fuel tank,' which is expected to serve as storage space. The battery and motor seem to be integrated, forming a stressed member structure, with the rear wheel powered by a belt drive. While the patent image reveals a single-seat layout, the presence of a saree guard suggests an optional pillion seat could be available.
One of the standout features, as highlighted by NDTV, is the use of a girder fork—a component rarely seen in modern motorcycles but commonly used over a century ago. Additionally, the rear of the bike is likely to feature an aluminium swingarm, along with a monoshock that is discreetly tucked away. Thin tyres, designed to improve rolling efficiency and agility, further hint at the bike’s modern engineering approach, although the final production model may differ from the leaked images.
Internally codenamed 'Electrik01', the electric motorcycle is expected to enter production within the next year or so, with a market launch anticipated in early 2026. While details remain speculative, this new electric offering marks a bold step forward for Royal Enfield as it ventures into the growing electric mobility sector.
Motorcycle enthusiasts worldwide will be keenly awaiting November 4, when Royal Enfield officially reveals this exciting addition to its line-up.

Report: Steelers elevate Russell Wilson to first team, QB in line to start Sunday
It appears Davante Adams won't be the only star making his debut with his new team when the New York Jets take on the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday night in Pittsburgh.
The Steelers are reportedly planning to give Russell Wilson first-team practice reps this week, and coach Mike Tomlin confirmed the veteran QB is under consideration to start for the first time this season over Justin Fields on Sunday. Fields had helped the Steelers to a 4-2 record while Wilson dealt with a lingering calf injury and remained in the role even as Wilson came off the injury report in recent weeks.
Fields, the former Chicago Bears signal-caller, had put up solid stats over his six starts to complement the Steelers' trademark strong defense. He had a 66.3% completion rate with 1,106 pass yards, five touchdowns and one interception, as well as 231 rushing yards on 55 attempts for five more touchdowns on the ground. However, he's also fumbled six times this season, though five of those fumbles were recovered by the Steelers.
[Related: Why Russell Wilson, when healthy, should be Steelers’ QB1 over Justin Fields]
Wilson entered training camp as the presumptive starting quarterback over Fields after both were acquired in the offseason — Wilson via free agency after his release from the Denver Broncos and Fields via trade with the Bears — but Wilson's calf injury allowed Fields to vault the nine-time Pro Bowler in the Steelers' depth chart, until now.

Prince Harry's 'Attacks on the Royal Family Haven't Been Forgotten' — But He Hasn't 'Burned All His Bridges' Yet
Prince Harry's public complaints about the royal family led to a decline in his popularity in the U.K., but the Duke of Sussex's recent trip to London showed he still has friends and fans in his native nation.
"His many attacks on his family will never be forgotten... but perhaps they can eventually be forgiven, by enough people anyway, to make him welcome here," royal correspondent Jennie Bond told an outlet.
"But I do not think Harry wants to return to his previous life in any shape or form," Bond stated. "He is forging a different way of 'service' as he puts it... and that's the path I think he will continue on while Meghan pursues more commercial activities."
OK! previously reported royal experts predicted the Sussexes are stepping away from being a "power couple'' and distancing their professional brands.
“When they recorded their first podcast, it was very much them together. It was the pilot episode and that was going to be the pattern: them together," royal editor Richard Eden said on the "Palace Confidential" podcast. "We saw that again on the Netflix series, but for whatever reason – whether it's Megan or it's Harry – they’ve decided that's not the way to go.”

The Invictus Games' founder's trips to New York, London and Lesotho highlighted his remaining charitable relationships, as his appearances brought attention to his philanthropy instead of his family drama.
“What Harry seems to be doing is focusing on philanthropy," Eden noted. "His most successful projects, the ones that resonate the most with people are the ones that were set up when he was a working royal – so the Invictus games his patronage of WellChild for example.”
While Harry continues to prioritize his humanitarian efforts, Meghan is working on American Riviera Orchard.
"The various engagements he has undertaken are for a whole variety of charities, on his own, and I think they've all gone extremely well," royal commentator Richard Fitzwilliams told GB News.
"He came to Britain for the WellChild Awards, where he interacted with the seriously ill children so beautifully, as we remember that Harry used to. And of course, we know his commitment to Sentebale, in southern Africa," Fitzwilliams added.
In 2023, the Sussexes struggled in Hollywood after being labeled "grifters" and a "flop," but the duo's recent solo outings could be a part of their plan to rehabilitate their public image.
"I'm watching with great interest to see whether this will mean that he branches out," Fitzwilliams shared. "It has been said in The Hollywood Reporter that he's well-meaning, but it says that both of them, they don't make up their mind very clearly."
"Well, let's see what mind they make up regarding future activities — we will have to wait and see," he continued.
Bond spoke to The Mirror.

LUCKNOW: The Election Commission of India (ECI), on Tuesday, announced the schedule for nine of the 10 Assembly seats set for the bypolls in Uttar Pradesh.
The by-elections for nine assembly seats in Uttar Pradesh will take place on November 1, and the results will be declared on November 23, along with the results of the Maharashtra and Jharkhand Assembly elections. However, the ECI did not notify the by-election in the Milkipur Assembly segment of Ayodhya which had fallen vacant by the election of sitting SP MLA Awadhesh Prasad to Lok Sabha in recent general elections.
Awadhesh Prasad had wrested Faizabad parliamentary seat from BJP’s two-term sitting MP Lallu Singh. As per the ECI, the by-poll in Milkipur would not be held along with the other nine seats as there was an election petition challenging the election of Awadhesh Prasad in 2022 was pending in Allahabad High Court. The petition to challenge the election of Awadhesh Prasad, who has represented SP in the UP Assembly nine times, was filed by the BJP candidate Gorakhnath Baba in 2022.
As per sources, Gorakhnath Baba had challenged the affidavit submitted by Awdhesh Prasad at the time of filing his nomination from the Milkipur assembly seat as SP candidate. The petitioner contended that the license of the lawyer, who had attested and verified the affidavit of the SP candidate, was cancelled many years ago and that it was not even renewed. Consequently, as per the petitioner’s claim, the affidavit of Awdhesh Prasad was fake and illegal and so his election should be cancelled.
Notably, the upcoming byelections are being considered as a litmus test for the Yogi government after the saffron party faced a debacle in the state in recent Lok Sabha elections in 2024. Out of the nine Assembly seats set to vote on November 13, four – Karhal, Katehari, Kundarki, and Sisamau -- were won by the Samajwadi Party, three – Khair, Ghaziabad and Phulpur by the BJP, and one each – Meerapur and Majhawan - by the Rashtriya Lok Dal and Nishad Party in 2022.
While RLD had won the Meeraur seat as SP ally, NISHAD had contested the 2022 assembly polls in alliance with the BJP. Now both RLD and NISHAD parties are in NDA. The ruling BJP has reportedly decided to contest on nine of the 10 assembly segments up for grabs in bypoll leaving the Meerapur seat for ally RLD as it had the sitting MLA who got elected to Lok Sabha from Bijnor in recent general elections.
The BJP is likely to announce the names of its candidates any time soon. On the other, the Samajwadi Party took its INDIA partner Congress by surprise by announcing candidates for six seats. However, it may spare a seat or two of the remaining four seats for Congress.
