The band and Sterban's family shared news of his death. A firm representing the Oak Ridge Boys said he died of bronchitis and pneumonia complications after living with cancer for a long time.

A voice behind "Elvira"

Sterban had backed Elvis Presley before joining the Oak Ridge Boys, where his bass supplied the hook for a song that reached No. 1 country and No. 5 pop.

"I wanted to be in the best vocal group in the world," Sterban said earlier, according to the biography on his band's website.

From gospel to country

Born April 24, 1943, in Camden, New Jersey, Richard Anthony Sterban was a founder of the gospel quartet the Keystones.

He later toured with Presley as part of J.D. Sumner and the Stamps Quartet, appearing in the 1972 concert film "Elvis on Tour." American Songwriter reported that Sterban joined the Oak Ridge Boys in late 1972, taking the place of departing bass singer Noel Fox.

His bandmates included lead singer Duane Allen, baritone William Lee Golden and tenor Joe Bonsall. Founded in 1943 as the Oak Ridge Quartet, the group had played bluegrass before moving into gospel and then country.

A hit and a return

The Oak Ridge Boys covered Dallas Frazier's "Elvira," with Sterban delivering the bass part. The band's representatives described its "oom poppa mow mow" line as one of American music's most familiar sounds.

The recording earned Single of the Year honors from both the Country Music Association and the Academy of Country Music. It won the Grammy Award for Best Country Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal.

Deadline reported that the group has sold more than 41 million records and received five Grammys. The Oak Ridge Boys belong to the Grand Ole Opry and the Gospel Music Hall of Fame, and their Country Music Hall of Fame election came in 2015.

Health reasons prompted Sterban to withdraw from performing with the group in 2025, but he returned to sing "Elvira" with his bandmates at the Grand Ole Opry in January 2026. Allen called the performance "a soul-stirring experience," American Songwriter reported.

Family and tributes

The band's representatives said funeral arrangements would be announced later. Sterban's family expressed gratitude for fans' support, saying, "we find comfort knowing that he is currently face to face with Jesus."

Country Music Association CEO Sarah Trahern said his bass "brought warmth, soul, and character to every performance."

The Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum described Sterban on X as "a musical bridge builder." Its CEO, Kyle Young, said, "He used his unmistakable bass voice to connect commercial country music to its deep gospel roots."

“Richard Sterban (1943–2026) was a musical bridge builder. He used his unmistakable bass voice to connect commercial country music to its deep gospel roots. He helped the supergroup achieve seventeen No. 1 hits, legions of fans the world over, and a well-deserved place in the

Huang resigned as Nvidia’s chief executive on Thursday. U.S. officials believed the woman with whom he had an affair was a Chinese spy.

TechCrunch reported that Huang confessed to the affair with a chip executive U.S. intelligence suspected of spying for China four days before resigning, and that he has agreed to testify before Congress. The New York Times reported that he also had an affair with an employee.

ATLABYTE reported that China called the espionage allegations slander after Huang stepped down. Inquisitr could not independently verify the report.

Nvidia controls an estimated 90% of the market for advanced chips that power major AI projects. TechCrunch reported that its stock fell sharply during the week and that his exit is expected to create a major funding shortfall for the AI industry.

“Jensen drove supply chain brilliantly at Nvidia, but many of those deals were a handshake with Jensen, not a written contract,” Musk, CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, wrote on X on Saturday.

“Without Jensen, at least some of those critical deals will be lost,” he wrote.

The open letter, “Stand With Jensen,” says its signers are “concerned that Jensen was removed without meaningful due process.” It urges the board to “bring him back while an independent investigation establishes the facts,” ensure the inquiry is fair and give the public more information.

“Jensen deserves due process, not mob justice,” the petition says.

The petition website counts 5,965 current Nvidia employees and 1,108 former employees among those who signed.

It lists 63,063 shareholders as well. The Times put the Saturday morning total just shy of 100,000.

Replit CEO Amjad Masad, Epic Games CEO Tim Sweeney and Y Combinator CEO Garry Tan also signed.

Shareholders write to the board

Brad Gerstner, CEO of Altimeter Capital Management, and Gavin Baker, chief investment officer of Atreides Management, sent the board a separate appeal Friday. “We believe the board should avoid a rush to replace Jensen that undermines and thwarts the best interests of shareholders,” they wrote.

Their firms are Nvidia shareholders, and Gerstner and Baker urged the board to keep “all options on the table, including the potential return of Jensen Huang.” Gerstner wrote on X that the letter sets out what they see as the least the board owes shareholders.

This letter was sent to the Nvidia Board today which we believe outlines the minimum acceptable standards the Board owes shareholders as it manages this difficult situation. Onward. 🫡

In posts online and correspondence with Nvidia directors, Huang’s billionaire peers portrayed him as irreplaceable, the Times reported. Supporters also argued his departure would put the United States behind in the artificial intelligence race and faulted the board for yielding to pressure.

It was not known whether Nvidia’s directors would answer the petition or consider bringing Huang back.

Nvidia has appointed Chief Financial Officer Colette Kress as interim CEO while it seeks a permanent replacement.

People close to the project confirmed the list to Billboard, Rolling Stone and Just Jared, which said it leaked on X on Saturday. A clip posted by X user nxrcssist shows someone flipping over an LP to display the songs printed on its back.

The vinyl went on sale prematurely. How the copies reached buyers before release was not immediately known.

The two records feature Playboi Carti, Dua Lipa, Cardi B, Lana Del Rey, Gunna, Yung Lean, Future, Metro Boomin, Travis Scott, Fred again.., PinkPantheress, Morgan Wallen, Tame Impala and Fuerza Regida, among others. Billboard said the music aims to evoke the energy and atmosphere of Vice City and Leonida, fictional locations in the game.

Del Rey's contribution is "Crazy for You," the same title as a song that has remained unreleased in her catalog for more than a decade.

"One of the coolest things about this is the fact that the first time some of our family got to LA they actually knew the roads because of playing the game," Del Rey said in earlier remarks. She described taking part as "super special and a privilege."

Justice opens the album with "Starting From Zero," featuring Michael McDonald. The group, which also scored the game, joins Tame Impala, SZA and King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard on "Flower in a Hurricane."

Yung Lean's "That's It" features Future and Metro Boomin, while Playboi Carti appears with "Ahh Yea." Other selections include Scott's "RHYNO," Wallen's "Last Thing You Need," Dua Lipa's "Go Easy," Cardi B's "Don't Chart" and JENNIE's "Power Trip." Keith Richards supplies "Bright Lights, Big City," while Stanley Clarke, Yussef Dayes and Robert Glasper close the record with "Overtown Lights."

Several tracks are already streaming, including previously released songs by Scott, Wallen, Richards and Justice featuring Tame Impala and SZA.

Atlantic Records and Rockstar Games announced the album in September. Just Jared said six songs came out then, while ScreenRant said Rockstar had announced 10 tracks but had yet to publish the complete list officially.

It was not immediately known whether Rockstar or Atlantic would officially confirm the list.

Grand Theft Auto VI launches Nov. 19 for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S, but the outlets gave different album release dates. Billboard put the album's arrival on Nov. 19, the game's launch day, while Rolling Stone and Just Jared gave Friday, Nov. 20, with Just Jared specifying midnight ET.

Customers can pre-order the album, including through RockstarGames.com. Best Buy, Walmart, Amazon, Target, Urban Outfitters and independent record stores are among the sellers, with each offering a vinyl pressing bearing its own design and poster. Atlantic is selling limited-edition liquid-filled and splatter versions with exclusive artwork.

The record won't contain every song heard in the game, as its radio stations will play existing tracks too. Bad Bunny, Del Rey, Wallen, Burna Boy and Robyn will host stations.

Grand Theft Auto VI: The Festival takes place Nov. 21 at Mana Wynwood in Miami, with Cardi B, Scott, Kodak Black and Don Toliver on the performance schedule.

Billboard said Rauw Alejandro and SoFaygo will appear as well, while Rolling Stone said Justice will perform.

“He’s the man,” Pratt said, adding that he loves working with Gunn.

Pratt spoke to Moviezine journalist Jonatan Blomberg while promoting his upcoming Apple TV film “Way of the Warrior Kid.” In an Instagram post, Blomberg wrote that he and Pratt’s co-star Jude Hill “cornered” him about making a fourth Guardians film with Gunn. Blomberg added that “there is at least a Star-Lord ready to serve.”

A post shared by Jonatan Blomberg (@jonatanblomberg) on Instagram

Gunn made all three “Guardians of the Galaxy” films for the Marvel Cinematic Universe, a record Pratt noted during the interview.

Pratt said Gunn “directed all three movies, and that’s pretty rare… so if he wanted to come back and bring it back, I would love that.”

“I haven’t had a chance to speak with him since that news came out yesterday,” Pratt said of Gunn. Pratt said commenting on subjects like this is difficult because his words could become a headline.

Peter Safran also departed as DC Studios co-head. The two were ousted Nov. 9, after David Ellison’s Skydance merger in October, Variety reported. Jeremy Latcham, a Marvel Studios alum, was announced as the new president and chief creative officer of DC Studios.

Variety called the leadership change another setback for DC Studios, saying it has struggled against Disney’s Marvel Cinematic Universe and that Gunn could now return to the MCU.

It was not immediately clear whether Gunn wanted to return to Marvel or direct a fourth “Guardians” film.

Pratt has portrayed Star-Lord in six films, starting with 2014’s “Guardians of the Galaxy” and including “Avengers: Infinity War,” “Avengers: Endgame” and “Thor: Love and Thunder.”

In October, Pratt said Marvel Studios had taken “hard action” toward Star-Lord’s return and that plans were in the works.

The Guardians last appeared on screen in the third installment in 2023, when its end-credits text promised Star-Lord would return.

Director Travis Knight, cinematographer Caleb Deschanel and visual effects supervisor Steve Emerson discussed the film’s blend of frame-by-frame animation and visual effects. Knight said the process leaves little room to redo a shot.

"When you're making a stop-motion movie, you cannot shoot any coverage," Knight said. "If the angle wasn't quite right, we need to widen out, you can't do that. That would take an animator three weeks to reshoot."

Knight joked that the crew might otherwise be curing disease or developing sustainable energy. "Instead, they're helping me make a puppet look sad," he said.

Deschanel began planning shots before the film’s characters were complete, so he tested a puppet from an earlier Laika production. He photographed Norman from "ParaNorman" in the woods, using both sun and fog.

"I found this Billie Eilish doll, I ordered it, I brought it into the sets and would play around with the lighting," Deschanel said.

The film adapts a book written by Colin Meloy of the indie rock band The Decemberists and illustrated by Carson Ellis. Knight spent 16 years working out the adaptation and how to bring Meloy’s descriptions and Ellis’ illustrations to life.

The Portland, Oregon, story follows 13-year-old Prue, voiced by Peyton Elizabeth Lee, as she sets out to rescue her infant brother. Her classmate Curtis, voiced by Jacob Tremblay, joins her, and the film concludes with a large-scale battle.

Emerson said Knight told the team, "This thing is going to escalate and we're going to do a hellscape." The filmmakers mapped out the battle in storyboards because they could not animate material they would leave unused.

Deschanel found a reference for the sequence in the 1992 IMAX film "Fires of Kuwait," studying its footage of the oil fires. "There was all this smoke that was really dark that would cover over in the middle of the day," he said.

Deschanel wanted occasional breaks of sunlight, but he said Knight disliked the idea. Knight "ended up creating this incredible dark space that ended up being better," Deschanel said, though he added that he got some sunlight into the ending.

Emerson said the effects available to the team allowed it to "put the audience's eye where we want them to look, which was at those stop-motion performances."

"There are no digital elements not being informed by practical elements," Emerson said. Knight described the final battle as "a ballet between the practical and the digital."

Knight said getting both "Coraline" and "Wildwood" made was a fight for Laika. "It's getting harder and harder to make anything with consolidation," he said.

"Art needs advocacy. It needs champions," Knight said. "That's what we're trying to do at the studio. We're one voice. Others will join us. We have to."

"Animation doesn't just have to be for small children," Deschanel said. Deadline said it would post video of the panel Monday.

Gerber, whose parents are Cindy Crawford and Rande Gerber, died Sept. 20 at Resolutions Living in Santa Monica, California, where he had checked in the previous night.

He purchased the midcentury property for $3.4 million in 2023. The asking price, rather than a completed sale, is $195,000 higher than his purchase price.

Hello magazine reported that Crawford and Rande Gerber decided to put their late son's home on the market. TMZ's report did not say who authorized the listing or why, and neither parent has publicly addressed it.

In an Oct. 18 family tribute on Instagram, Crawford wrote, "We are beyond heartbroken to lose our beloved son and brother." The post bore the signature "Mom, Dad and Kaia" and closed with "Til we meet again our sweet boy."

A post shared by Cindy Crawford (@cindycrawford) on Instagram

The tribute included a black-and-white photograph, credited to Sebastian Faena, showing Gerber with white feather wings. His sister, Kaia Gerber, followed minutes later with a video of them as children. "I've read all of the books and i have none of the answers," she wrote.

The Hollywood Hills property

The home dates to 1955 and occupies about half an acre. Architectural Digest described a single-story main house with three bedrooms and an attached one-bedroom guest suite with a private entrance and kitchen. TMZ counted four bedrooms and three bathrooms across roughly 3,000 square feet.

The property has a heated pool, Jacuzzi, cold plunge, sauna and separate guest house. Hardwood floors and a stone fireplace are among the interior features, along with a kitchen fitted with cherry cabinetry and a center island.

Crawford and Rande Gerber have both been photographed visiting the property since their son's death. By Sept. 26, Rande Gerber had been pictured approaching the front door of his son's Los Angeles residence, his head lowered and dressed in shorts, a T-shirt and a hat.

Investigation continues

The Los Angeles County Medical Examiner's office has completed Gerber's autopsy but deferred its findings on the cause and manner of death while it awaits further testing. "Death was pronounced at 09:45 hours on September 20, 2026, by responding paramedics," the office told People in September.

A Santa Monica Police Department spokesperson previously told the Daily Mail, "SMPD detectives are investigating the death as a suspected overdose. At this time, there is no indication of foul play."

The Eastern Herald reported that the suspected overdose is the police assessment, not an official medical finding.

An investigation into the sober home followed Gerber's death, but it found insufficient evidence to substantiate wrongdoing, Page Six reported.

Gerber had discussed his addiction struggles and attempts to get treatment in public. In March 2026, he shared a video about undergoing treatment with ibogaine, an experimental psychedelic, at a wellness clinic in Cancún, Mexico, The Blast reported. Crawford called her son a "warrior" in response to that post.

"I faced what I had been running from, and somewhere in all of it, I started finding my way back to myself," Gerber wrote in March, according to Page Six.

On Nov. 8, Kaia Gerber shared a passage about grief from Joan Didion's "The Year of Magical Thinking," together with a photo of books about loss.

The police investigation remains ongoing, the department has said. The medical examiner's office said in September that determining a deferred cause of death can take a few months.

The flight began with a booster loss. The Super Heavy exploded over the Gulf of Mexico shortly after Friday's launch, and SpaceX's planned recovery was aborted.

SpaceX officials said the catch demonstrates Starship's full reusability, although the company had previously caught only boosters this way. The trip from launch to capture took about 22 hours, making it Starship's longest orbital flight to date.

At around 4:20 p.m. ET, Starship descended through clouds, turned upright and moved between the tower arms.

"Look at her! Baby, she's back!" SpaceX commentator Dan Huot shouted when the arms caught Starship.

Loud cheers followed, while "Baby Come Back" by Player played on the video feed. Huot told AFP the catch was "the Holy Grail of space flight, plummeting through fire to be snatched out of the air by steel," BBC News reported.

During the flight, Starship released 26 Starlink satellites. SpaceX said the spacecraft's systems appeared to work well, including its heat shield.

Booster lost after launch

Flight 15 marked SpaceX's first attempt to capture both the booster and the rocket's upper stage on one flight, CNBC reported. The booster was redirected toward an offshore splashdown, but it exploded before reaching the water.

On the booster's descent, its engines shut down prematurely, SpaceX's Kate Tice said. Its guidance system detected that the booster was out of position and automatically triggered self-destruction, she said. SpaceX engineers are still investigating what caused the failure.

It remained unclear whether the Federal Aviation Administration would require an investigation into the mishap, whether SpaceX would reuse the captured Starship and when another test flight might occur.

The rocket launched late Friday afternoon from SpaceX's Starship base near the U.S.-Mexican border for the system's 15th test flight. At 407 feet (124 meters) tall, it surpasses all other rockets in size and power.

The Hawaii Department of Transportation temporarily halted some West Coast flights Friday because of debris risk from the flight. That order has since been lifted.

Flight 15 was only Starship's second orbital trip since full-scale flights began in 2023, The Associated Press reported. The preceding mission made one to two laps around Earth, and SpaceX had caught three boosters before this flight.

Ahead of the flight, SpaceX CEO Elon Musk said during its third-quarter earnings call: "success is not guaranteed on these first flights, but I'd say it's more likely than not that this succeeds next flight."

NASA's lunar plans

NASA is paying billions of dollars for Starship to take Artemis astronauts to the moon later this decade and help build a permanent lunar base. NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman wrote on X that "It was almost magic," and said the flight was "Making more believers by the day."

CNBC described Starship as necessary for launching more satellites for Starlink, which it called SpaceX's current profit center. The network already has more than 11,000 satellites in low Earth orbit, and SpaceX has said a single Starship can carry up to 60 Starlink v3 satellites.

Musk wants a fleet of Starships to build a city on Mars.

SpaceX expects Starship launches from NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida to begin within the next few months. NASA's next Artemis mission will depart from there and remain in orbit around Earth for lunar lander practice. NASA is targeting as soon as 2028 for Artemis IV, which would mark the first moon landing since the Apollo era.

Thiessen told host Tom Papa that she had a torn labrum and learned about the dysplasia during a second opinion.

"I have a torn labrum," Thiessen said. "That's one issue I have."

"And then I found out going to my second opinion that I'm basically a German shepherd," she said. "I have hip dysplasia."

With hip dysplasia, the Mayo Clinic says, the socket does not fully cover the upper thighbone's ball, causing a partial or complete dislocation of the hip. The Cleveland Clinic describes the condition as preventing the hip bones from fitting properly in their joints.

"I was a dancer when I was younger, which was a good thing," Thiessen said. She believes her childhood flexibility, useful for dancing, may have contributed to her hip problems.

The condition has interrupted her pickleball games. Thiessen said her hip had prevented her from playing for the past couple of weeks.

She plays with her son Holt, 11, who began playing less than a year ago.

"He's actually starting to beat me now," she said. "But I do have a bad hip."

Thiessen said her doctor did not attribute her condition to pickleball, although "it probably hasn't helped."

"I hear that hip replacements aren't as bad as knee and shoulder," she said of the operation.

Thiessen joked about the health issues age can bring. "This is what happens," she said. "Just wait. You guys just wait."

Thiessen worked as a child model and appeared in commercials before winning Miss Junior America in 1987. She was 15 when she landed the role of cheerleader Kelly Kapowski on "Saved by the Bell" in 1989.

She joined "Beverly Hills, 90210" as Valerie Malone in 1994. Her later credits include "White Collar" and "LEGO Marvel Avengers: Mission Demolition," a 2024 animated special in which she voiced She-Hulk.

Thiessen now plays Miss Graves in "Coven Academy," where her character runs a supernatural boarding school.

On the podcast, Thiessen said her main career goal is to continue getting opportunities to work. "As we get older, that starts to get smaller," she said. "And, so, the fact that I get to still do what I love is really what is most important to me."

She said younger actors help keep her young.

"Like, you know, four o'clock in the morning, the mom is like, 'Oh my God, how many more scenes?'" Thiessen said. "And these kids are over there doing TikToks."

Thiessen has said she no longer receives residuals for "Saved by the Bell." During a Sept. 24 interview on Page Six Radio, she said "it probably costs more to print the check," USA Today reported.

In the same September 2026 interview, Thiessen said the cast lacked leverage on the show. "We made nothing, and we just did our job," she said.

When the project was introduced in June 2019, Joe and Anthony Russo were attached to an anime-style adaptation. That version fell apart. In 2024, Netflix said it still planned to adapt the card game as a series, but would start the project over.

“It’s really happening. I promise. For real. It’s happening,” Roy Graham, head of story for Magic: The Gathering at Wizards of the Coast, told fans at the opening of the announcement video.

Netflix announced the title and premiere window Friday at the MagicCon: Atlanta fan convention, alongside an initial image showing the pyromancer Chandra conjuring flames under a twilight sky, TVShowsFinder reported.

A two-minute Development Diary featurette opens with Netflix Geeked’s September 2024 post naming Terry Matalas as showrunner. Fan replies surround the post, including “Stop toying with our emotions!” and “I'll believe it when I see it.”

Chandra Nalaar is at the center of the story, according to Netflix’s official synopsis, which describes her as a volatile pyromancer hunted for her gifts and haunted by her past. She joins other legendary Planeswalkers in confronting an insidious force as they try to prevent a cataclysmic war.

Netflix named Matalas, known for Star Trek: Picard and 12 Monkeys, as showrunner in September 2024. The featurette says each plane exists in a pocket universe, giving each its own design, animation and filmmaking style. Matalas called the approach “worlds-building.”

Co-showrunner Cindy Appel said the game’s thousands of cards, amassed over more than 30 years, make the franchise “tailor-made for animation.”

Netflix is making Planeswalker with Hasbro Entertainment and Wizards of the Coast, Movie Chill reported. Budapest-based DIGIC Pictures is producing the animation after Netflix named the studio at the Annecy animation festival in June 2025.

Brandon Routh recorded dialogue as Gideon Jura for the abandoned version, the site said. It was not immediately clear whether the new series would use that material or who would provide its voices.

The featurette also includes Aaron Forsythe, senior vice president of game design at Wizards of the Coast. After years of questions over when an adaptation might come together and what form it would take, he said, “Magic is finally having its moment.”

Wilde, 42, directed "Booksmart" and "Don't Worry Darling," while Sudeikis, 51, stars in "Ted Lasso." Their son Otis is 12, and their daughter Daisy is 10. After nearly a decade together, they broke off their engagement in 2020 and became involved in a custody dispute.

"I really take pride in how good we are at co-parenting our kids in my family. We have reached this healthy equilibrium," Wilde told the Times.

She was also candid about the difficulty. "It's so hard. Anyone who pretends it's easy — like, 'Oh, you just consciously uncouple, and then you find a way' — that's BS," she said.

Wilde spoke on the Nov. 14 episode of the Times podcast "The Interview," People reported.

"I feel relieved that I'm able to give them a life with parents where there's a real sense of authenticity in terms of how everyone's feeling and doing," Wilde said.

"When you're trying to hide it from your kids, they sense it. They're the most intuitive people in the house," she said. Wilde said people can question what is real when they sense a performance, adding, "I wouldn't wish that on anyone."

"It feels like a failure when you can't make a relationship work, particularly if it's with the person you have children with," she said.

Wilde described the breakup as "by far the most difficult, painful decision I've ever made in my life, to understand that it was not better for my kids to live in a house where their parents were not aligned."

"We can't deny we are changing," Wilde said. "It's a decision to acknowledge the change."

Wilde and Sudeikis first met at a "Saturday Night Live" finale party in May 2011 and began dating later that year. They became engaged in 2013; in 2023, they agreed to joint custody. Page Six reported that they never married and that Sudeikis agreed under the settlement to pay Wilde $27,500 each month for child support.

On the "Call Her Daddy" podcast in June 2026, Wilde said the relationship came to a head during a drive home from a birthday party her friends had given her, Page Six reported. Wilde recalled asking about a birthday present. According to Wilde, Sudeikis replied that he didn't know her; she said that wasn't wrong.

In her June 2026 podcast appearance, Wilde said "these kids are consistently getting the best of us in a way that when we were together was not possible because we did not work together, but we work really well as separated co-parents." She described Sudeikis as "a very capable co-parent who is very present with them when he's with them."

Whether Sudeikis or his representatives have responded to Wilde's latest comments was not immediately known. Her interview followed Sudeikis' remarks about their split by several weeks.

InStyle reported that Sudeikis discussed his communication during the relationship on Sam Fragoso's "Talk Easy" podcast on Oct. 18. "I think it's just flat-out communication. I could have communicated better [with] how I felt, how things were making me feel," he said.

The game at Acrisure Bounce House now starts at 5:30 p.m. ET on ESPNU, rather than its original ESPN2 slot at 3:30 p.m. UCF Athletics said the Big 12 moved the game late Friday night after the ground stop interrupted team travel.

The FAA order kept flights for 12 teams, including Arizona State, from departing Friday afternoon, Sports Illustrated reported. It was the agency's second nationwide ground stop since Sept. 11, 2001.

Arizona State put off its Orlando flight until the next morning while the stop was in effect. The stoppage lasted four hours and 21 minutes.

The Big 12 issued a statement about the ground stop.

One win from a bowl

Arizona State and UCF each enter with a 5-4 overall record and a 3-3 mark in the Big 12.

The Knights have not reached a bowl since the 2023 season. Coach Scott Frost has three games left to secure his first bowl appearance of his second stint at UCF, starting Saturday.

Linebacker Lewis Carter is expected to return for UCF after carrying probable designations all week, his first appearance since Sept. 19. Running back Duke Watson and wide receiver Waden Charles are set to sit out for the first time this season.

"You know, I didn't think it was going to be this long a deal, but every injury responds different, and he's been a huge part of our team we haven't had," Frost said Monday. "But I think there's a really good chance he gets some time this week."

Keene returns to Orlando

Arizona State quarterback Mikey Keene helped UCF earn its most recent bowl win. He began his college career at UCF in 2021 and, after Dillon Gabriel was injured, spent much of that season as the starting quarterback.

Keene passed for 1,730 yards and 17 touchdowns that year, helping the Knights defeat Florida in the Gasparilla Bowl.

He returns to Acrisure Bounce House for the first time since the 2022 season.

Keene came off the bench for Arizona State starter Cutter Boley against Texas Tech on Oct. 17, passing for 256 yards before being named the starter against Kansas State. A knee injury against Kansas State sidelined him, and freshman Jake Fette started the past two games.

Keene is available, though his playing time depends on Fette's health or coach Kenny Dillingham's decisions. Fette will make his third college start, while Alonza Barnett III will start his second consecutive game at quarterback for UCF.

Barnett, who transferred to UCF and missed time this season with a hamstring injury, led the winning drive at Kansas on Nov. 7, throwing a touchdown with one second left.

Arizona State committed only three penalties in last week's 20-10 home win over Colorado. Receiver Reed Harris leads the Big 12 in receiving yards.

The Sun Devils hold a 2-0 series lead, with both earlier games played in Tempe, Arizona. FanDuel Sportsbook favors UCF by 3.5 points.

Chuckie Kempf and Dustin Fox will call the game on ESPNU.

His family announced his death in a Nov. 12 obituary notice in The New York Times, saying he died peacefully with family around him. No cause of death was given.

Hinnant joined the children's series when it premiered in 1971 and remained until its 1977 end, appearing over six years in 780 episodes, according to Deadline. During his run on the show, he voiced the title character in Fritz the Cat, the first animated film rated X, The Hollywood Reporter reported.

"Skip was known for his quick wit and never missed an opportunity to make a joke," his family said.

From Chincoteague to Yale

Hinnant was born Joseph Howard Hinnant on Sept. 12, 1940, and grew up on Chincoteague Island, Virginia. His older sister Jean nicknamed him Skip, a name he kept throughout his life.

Hinnant followed his older brother Bill to Yale and later to New York City, graduating from Yale in 1962. He married Miriam Dildilian that year, and the couple brought up four children in Bergen County, New Jersey.

Hinnant performed before President John F. Kennedy at the White House Correspondents' Association dinner in 1963, as part of the Julius Monk revue "Struts and Frets," according to The Hollywood Reporter and his family's notice. Variety dated the dinner to 1962. On ABC's "The Patty Duke Show," Hinnant had a recurring role as Ted, the boyfriend of Patty Duke's character Cathy. The Hollywood Reporter and Deadline said his character appeared in the show's first two seasons, from 1963 to 1965, though Variety and his family's notice placed the role in 1962.

In 1967, Hinnant created the role of Schroeder for the Off-Broadway Peanuts musical "You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown." His brother Bill played Snoopy in that production. Gary Burghoff played Charlie Brown, and Bob Balaban played Linus in the original cast.

Hinnant later appeared on Broadway in Neil Simon's "Plaza Suite," whose original 1968-69 production was directed by Mike Nichols.

Fargo North and Fritz

Hinnant worked alongside Morgan Freeman, Rita Moreno and Bill Cosby on "The Electric Company," a companion series to "Sesame Street."

His parts included Frankenstein and Fargo North, Decoder, a detective who sorted out scrambled words and phrases for clients. Hinnant also played Jay-Jay and Supper Man, as well as the boy in the soap-opera-style "Love of Chair" skits.

The 1972 film "Fritz the Cat" drew on Robert Crumb's comic character and became an underground hit, although Crumb objected to the adaptation. Hinnant returned as Fritz for the 1974 sequel, "The Nine Lives of Fritz the Cat," the first animated film rated R.

A career in voices

In 1977, when "The Electric Company" ended, Hinnant voiced the title character in the ABC stop-motion special "The Easter Bunny Is Comin' to Town," a Rankin/Bass production narrated by Fred Astaire. The following year, Bill Hinnant drowned at 42 during a vacation in the Dominican Republic.

Hinnant's other voice roles included work on the 1970s series "Spidey Super Stories," Pogo Possum in the 1980 feature "I Go Pogo," "My Little Pony" and the 1990 TV movie "Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day." He lent his voice extensively to commercials on television and radio, recorded narrations for children's books and appeared in "Kate & Allie" and "As the World Turns."

Hinnant belonged to Actors' Equity, AFTRA and the Screen Actors Guild, serving on SAG's national board from 1980 to 2003.

His family said he "was proud of his work to preserve commercial voice contracts and the everyday actor’s rights."

Hinnant and Miriam stayed close friends after their separation. He met Ruth Nerken in 1985, and the two were companions in New York City for three decades.

Nerken and his former wife, Miriam Hinnant, are among his survivors. He also leaves children Chris, Jamie, Julie and Sara and their spouses, along with nine grandchildren. His family requested donations in his name to the Entertainment Community Fund or the SAG-AFTRA Foundation.

The family plans a private celebration of life in Chincoteague, where Hinnant grew up. No date has been given.

In 2026, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has counted 5,412 confirmed cases, the highest total since 1991. More than 590 people have been hospitalized.

The panel met for three days in Washington before reaching its decision, Axios reported. The organization, known as PAHO, said it examined CDC epidemiological and lab data for evidence that one strain had spread continuously for 12 months or longer, a sign that it was spreading locally rather than being brought in from abroad.

Its advisory commission gives its finding to Director Dr. Jarbas Barbosa, who has the final say.

The United States achieved elimination in 2000, following decades of vaccine campaigns that raised childhood measles coverage above 97%. PAHO says keeping vaccination coverage at 95% or higher is the best way to maintain elimination.

The U.S. childhood rate dropped to about 92% in 2025, with much lower rates in some states and communities. Pennsylvania has recorded over 1,500 cases, more than any other outbreak. Cases have reached 45 states and the District of Columbia.

CDC Director Erica Schwartz said this month that federal officials would respond to outbreaks in the same way despite the loss of status. "The measles elimination designation is not what protects Americans. Vaccination does," she said.

Richard Besser, who formerly served as acting CDC director and heads the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, linked the resurgence to federal policy. He said it was "no surprise that the resurgence of measles has coincided with an administration that has inflicted significant damage to our health care system while spreading false claims about vaccines."

Health and Human Services Department spokesperson Emily Hilliard said the rise in cases stemmed from gaps in vaccine coverage that began years before the current administration, KFF Health News reported. In August 2025, White House spokesperson Allison Schuster told the outlet that the president and health secretary "have repeatedly encouraged measles vaccination, coordinated with states, and facilitated the deployment of vaccine doses across the country."

CBS News medical correspondent Dr. Céline Gounder described what the change means for doctors. "It means ERs and pediatricians need to consider measles in anyone with a fever and rash, whether they've traveled overseas or not," she said. Gounder said the United States may now export measles to other countries.

The regulator gave Meta 60 days to switch off the feature by default and request separate consent from users. The penalty represents approximately 0.47% of the Meta group's worldwide turnover, the authority said. The BBC said few penalties imposed on a tech giant by an Italian authority have been larger.

The tool offers photos and videos from a user's phone gallery as possible material for posts. It is called "Get suggestions from gallery when browsing Facebook," and investigators found it was active by default, the authority said.

The authority said it considered "the high number of people affected" when deciding the penalty. It said the issue was "still ongoing for those who have not updated the app and for those who have already given their consent to the system."

The outlets gave different figures. The BBC said the authority found Meta had not properly informed about 20 million smartphone users that it could access their photos and videos, while The Associated Press said the agency put Italy's Android user total at about 20 million.

The regulator also cited Meta's "lack of cooperation" with its investigation as a factor in the penalty.

Facebook sought permission to access galleries through a single app-wide request that covered multiple functions serving different purposes. The notice before that request did not clearly explain that Facebook could use gallery photos to produce suggestions, the authority said.

The authority said the feature breached the Italian law that implements the European Union's ePrivacy directive. The directive treats smartphones as part of a person's private sphere and requires "free and informed consent" for access, the authority said.

Italy began the investigation in 2025, but it did not examine whether gallery content was used to train artificial intelligence models. Meta denied using the content for that purpose, according to the authority.

Meta owns Facebook and is also behind Instagram and WhatsApp. The penalty was imposed on Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, which disputed Italy's jurisdiction in the case, the authority said.

It was not immediately known how the authority resolved that challenge.

Separately, the authority said it reserved the right to examine a feature launched in 2026 that permits gallery content to be processed in the cloud.

The hosts scored five tries at the Principality Stadium, their most against New Zealand, before preserving their lead by holding the All Blacks up over the try line three times late in the match.

Some bookmakers had offered odds of 20-1 on Wales before kickoff, BBC Sport reported. The Associated Press called it the biggest upset in test rugby since Japan defeated South Africa at the 2015 World Cup.

“It was an unbelievable performance from the boys,” Wales head coach Steve Tandy said.

Wales had previously beaten New Zealand only in 1905, 1935 and 1953. A try was worth three points at the time of that last victory, and Cardiff was not yet the capital of Wales.

Scrum-half Tomos Williams put Wales ahead in the second minute following a kick forward by Louis Rees-Zammit, and the hosts never trailed. Captain Dewi Lake scored in the sixth minute to make it 14-0, the first time Wales had taken a 14-point lead over New Zealand.

New Zealand scrum-half Cortez Ratima answered with a try. Prop Archie Griffin then put Wales ahead 21-7, but number eight Wallace Sititi and wing Fehi Fineanganofo scored to bring the teams level at 21-21 by half-time.

Fineanganofo scored three minutes into dead time after Wales twice opted to play on instead of kicking the ball out, Sky Sports reported.

Centre Eddie James and Rees-Zammit restored Wales’ advantage after the break, taking the score to 35-21 in the 49th minute. Wales had passed up a kickable penalty for a five-metre lineout that produced Rees-Zammit’s try. Fly-half Sam Costelow converted each of Wales’ five tries.

New Zealand flanker Peter Lakai reduced the gap to seven points with a try. Around the 60th minute, replacement prop Gareth Thomas held Sititi up over the Wales line, before flanker James Botham made the second held-up.

Replacement Taine Plumtree won two turnovers inside the Wales 22, ending New Zealand attacks that had lasted more than 20 phases.

“When New Zealand were coming back after halftime it would be easy to doubt yourselves, but I thought the boys attacked it, the bench coming on as well, and in the last couple of minutes I thought they looked really composed,” Tandy said.

New Zealand coach Dave Rennie said his side had chances but was not clinical enough, and he had no regrets. “We had a good enough side to win,” he said.

“I can't even describe the emotions. 1953 was the last time we beat the All Blacks,” Botham told ITV.

At full-time, Wales’ players cried, posed for a team photo on the field and completed a lap of honour.

Wales had lost a record 18 consecutive tests until July last year and finished last in the Six Nations. “From Grand Slam champions to one of the longest losing streaks for a tier one nation - they were in the pits,” former Wales player Sam Warburton said.

New Zealand missed its chance to take the No. 1 world ranking from South Africa with the defeat. South Africa lost 21-19 to France in Paris on Friday, while New Zealand moved one point ahead of South Africa in the standings.

Rennie’s side next faces England at Allianz Stadium Twickenham at 2.10pm on Nov. 21. Wales hosts Australia at the Principality Stadium that evening, with kickoff at 8.10pm.

The live broadcast from One Bangkok Forum brought together artists representing 11 countries in Thailand’s capital. Organizers called the Asian contest a new chapter in Eurovision’s 70-year history.

Contestants waved national flags as they rode onto the stage one by one in tuk-tuks, to cheers from thousands of fans at the city-center venue. The motorized three-wheeled vehicles are a common sight in Bangkok’s tourist districts.

Carmelle’s fiery performance of the dance-pop song carried her past 10 other competitors in the grand final, The Associated Press reported. Thai duo Mang x Daou were runners-up with the romantic pop song "Aroma," while Vietnam’s Tóc Tiên took third place with "Em Tiên."

National juries and the public chose the winner, with viewers worldwide eligible to vote. The result combined votes from 11 national juries and an audience vote worth 50% of the total.

A Rest of the World vote contributed points equivalent to those of one participating country. Final point totals and Carmelle’s margin of victory were not available.

Carmelle had competed in televised singing contests before arriving in Bangkok. In 2019, she was first runner-up on The Voice Kids. She went on to win Tawag ng Tanghalan in January 2025 and has appeared on the reality show Pinoy Big Brother.

Her Eurovision entry first won over voters at the inaugural Philippine Selection Night, where a worldwide vote chose "Sobra-Sobra" from 10 songs to represent the Philippines.

The Asian event shares its name with the European contest, which aims to put music ahead of politics but has repeatedly been caught up in world events, according to the AP. Russia was expelled from the Eurovision Song Contest in 2022 after its full-scale invasion of Ukraine.

The Israel-Hamas war in Gaza prompted protests outside Eurovision venues and led organizers to limit political flag-waving, the AP reported. Five longtime participants, Spain, the Netherlands, Ireland, Iceland and Slovenia, boycotted this year’s European contest over Israel’s participation.

Bulgarian singer Dara won that 70th edition in Vienna earlier this year. She appeared as a special guest at the Asian final and performed her winning song, "Bangaranga."

Depp plays Ebenezer Scrooge in the Paramount Pictures adaptation of Charles Dickens' “A Christmas Carol,” which Ti West directed. The production cost $38 million and opened across 3,535 theaters. Its Friday figure includes Thursday previews.

PostTrak data showed that half the people who saw the film cited Depp as their reason for seeing it, The Hollywood Reporter reported. On opening Thursday night, 62% of the audience was older than 30.

On Rotten Tomatoes, 53% of critics approved of the film. In an earlier review for The Hollywood Reporter, critic Frank Scheck wrote that it “fulfills its ostensible goal of restoring the actor to A-list status.”

Moviegoers were more favorable. The PG-13 film received an A- from CinemaScore audiences and 4.5 out of 5 stars in PostTrak polling.

Depp's return to studio films

Paramount's campaign featured Depp as Scrooge, with a surprise appearance in character at San Diego Comic-Con. The project marked the first big greenlight under Paramount's new administration following the Skydance merger last year.

Previews started at 2 p.m. Thursday and generated $1.5 million. That was less than the $3.7 million Amazon MGM's “Red One” collected in previews.

Deadline said Ti West genre fans did not attend in large numbers Friday night, and the hope was that families would come Saturday. By Saturday morning, Paramount still anticipated a $20 million domestic debut, though rival studios expected less, Deadline said.

That $20 million opening would put “Ebenezer” near the starts of Depp's “Black Mass,” which took $22.6 million in 2015, and 2009's “Public Enemies,” which earned $25.2 million.

Variety projected a weekend take of $18 million to $20 million.

Paramount expected an additional $20 million across 63 international markets. Deadline and Variety put the prospective worldwide opening at around $38 million to $40 million.

Depp's previous major studio feature was “Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald” in 2018. In 2020, Warner Bros. fired him from the “Harry Potter” spinoff series after he lost a libel case against British tabloid The Sun, which had called him a “wife beater,” Variety reported.

His ex-wife Amber Heard accused Depp of domestic abuse, which he has denied. Depp won a U.S. defamation trial against Heard in 2022.

“How to Rob a Bank” opens

Amazon MGM Studios' “How to Rob a Bank” took $2.2 million, including previews, from 2,810 theaters Friday. David Leitch directed the R-rated film about bank robbers who broadcast their heists on social media.

The Hollywood Reporter and Deadline forecast around $4.7 million for the weekend, while Variety estimated $4.75 million. The Hollywood Reporter said the $40 million production was opening well below Leitch's “Bullet Train,” which debuted domestically at $30 million in 2022.

CinemaScore audiences gave the film a B-, compared with an A- for Leitch's previous film, “The Fall Guy.”

Rotten Tomatoes recorded approval from 33% of critics and an 80% audience score. The Hollywood Reporter's chief film critic David Rooney wrote in an earlier review that “the fun wears a bit thin.”

The film ranked third Friday, but Variety expected it to finish No. 7 for the weekend behind several holdovers.

Deadline estimated that all films would bring in around $80 million for the weekend, an 8% increase from the same weekend a year earlier. Lionsgate's “The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping” opens next weekend, and Deadline said it could debut at $100 million.

The officer was taken to hospital after the stabbing. "His injuries have since been assessed as non life-threatening or life-changing and he has been discharged," a Met spokesperson said.

The Met said officers were sent to an address in Mawney Road at about 4:16 p.m. Friday because of concern for a man's welfare. "On arrival, the 21-year-old man threatened police with a sharp object before assaulting an officer," the spokesperson said.

The Met described the object as sharp, while My London reported that it was a knife.

"The man was arrested at the scene on suspicion of attempted murder and remains in police custody," the Met said.

The suspect and the injured officer have not been named. It was not immediately clear whether the arrested man was the subject of the welfare concern, what the sharp object was, or whether he had been charged.

The London Ambulance Service said it received a call about an injured person in Mawney Road at 5:34 p.m. Friday. "The first paramedic arrived in less than three minutes," a service spokesperson said.

The response included two ambulance crews, two paramedics in fast-response cars and an incident response officer.

"We treated two patients at the scene and took them both to hospital, one as a priority," the spokesperson said.

In September, another police officer was stabbed in the leg during dawn raids targeting a suspected organised crime gang in London and four counties. The Met said at the time that the injury was not life-changing.

"A crime scene remains in place," the Met said of Mawney Road. Enquiries were continuing, Echo reported.

Northwestern has lost two straight as well and shares Ohio State’s 6-3 record, with a 3-3 mark in the Big Ten, Eleven Warriors reported.

Ohio State’s defeats came against USC and Oregon. Coach Ryan Day told 10TV ahead of the game that his players are disappointed and embarrassed, though their season is not over. With three regular-season games remaining, Day said they must choose how they want to be remembered.

The losses left Ohio State with slim chances of winning the Big Ten or reaching the College Football Playoff, USA Today and Eleven Warriors said. Michigan remains on the Buckeyes’ schedule.

Ohio State last lost three consecutive games in 2011, while Northwestern is looking for its first victory at Ohio Stadium since 1971, according to an Associated Press report carried by 10TV. The report described Kelly as Day’s longtime friend and mentor, and 10TV said Kelly helped Ohio State win a national championship as offensive coordinator.

Kelly has overseen an offensive turnaround at Northwestern, Kamran Nia of The Daily Northwestern said, according to Eleven Warriors. Land-Grant Holy Land puts Northwestern’s turnover margin at +12 entering the game.

Northwestern commit RJ Day will root against Ohio State for the first time, Eleven Warriors reported. “That is my family now, and I'm going to stand by that,” he said.

Ohio State’s availability report lists 11 players out, a group that includes Sayin and starting offensive lineman Luke Montgomery. Four others are game-time decisions, including offensive lineman Phillip Daniels and receiver Phillip Bell.

Freshman Luke Fahey makes his third quarterback start for Ohio State, while Northwestern quarterback Aidan Chiles is also out, 10TV reported.

Day told 10TV’s Dom Tiberi ahead of the game that injuries do not excuse Ohio State’s struggles and discussed getting receiver Jeremiah Smith more involved.

Ohio State says its “JJ 4 It All” campaign backs Smith for the Heisman Trophy and other national awards. Land-Grant Holy Land said Smith needs 31 receiving yards to pass John Standeford for the Big Ten career receiving record.

Fox will carry the game, which also streams on FuboTV. Connor Onion and Robert Griffin III will call it, with Gus Johnson and Joel Klatt not on the broadcast.

Even though Ohio State is playing at noon on FOX, Gus Johnson and Joel Klatt won’t be on the call for today’s game.

— Eleven Warriors (@11W) November 14, 2026

Ohio State’s second-to-last home game is scheduled for noon ET, though Land-Grant Holy Land reported kickoff would be roughly 12:15 p.m. ET because the “Big Noon” game never starts exactly at noon.

The six-year-old, trained by Ben Pauling, drew away up the hill after matching strides with Blueking D'Oroux over the final fence, winning by two and a half lengths. Cobden raised his fists as the 2-1 favourite crossed the line.

The jockey had another reason to celebrate. Meetmebythesea's victory was Cobden's second big win in the McManus colours in two days, following Jonbon's Shloer Chase victory at Cheltenham on Friday.

"To ride a horse like this in a race like that, you just have to pinch yourself to be in this position," Cobden told ITV Sport.

Cobden, 28, took up the role of McManus's retained jockey in Britain and Ireland in May, having been champion jump jockey in 2023-24. He said the result was wonderful for McManus, whose contribution to racing was so great, and that he felt lucky to be involved.

"These big days don't come along very often and I'm going to enjoy every single one of them from now on," Cobden said.

The race marked Meetmebythesea's return after his novice victory at the Cheltenham Festival in March. Pauling said his horse jumped brilliantly and "showed a bit of guts there to win well."

"He needed to do that today. I think he showed a lot more than we have seen from him so far, but he's just really good," Pauling said.

"You don't know what you have got under the bonnet until you compete in races like that, but that was really cool," Pauling said.

Five non-runners, among them the highly fancied July Flower, reduced the field to 10 horses, BBC Sport reported. Blueking D'Oroux started at 10-3 on his first outing for champion trainer Dan Skelton.

Torneo, a 12-1 chance, took third place, another two and three-quarter lengths behind Blueking D'Oroux.

"We went a strong gallop and we were beaten fair and square on the day, but we'll be back," Harry Skelton, the runner-up's jockey, said, according to the Racing Post.

Pauling was asked whether Meetmebythesea could develop into a Cheltenham Gold Cup horse. "I don't know what I see him as," he said. BBC Sport said he stopped short of promoting the horse's prospects of running in the Gold Cup at the festival in March.

Coral shortened Meetmebythesea's odds for next month's King George VI Chase at Kempton to 10-1 from 25, according to the Racing Post.

“Wishing a very Happy Birthday to His Majesty The King!” the Prince and Princess of Wales wrote.

The picture came from a recording session last month for an hour-long special of John’s Apple Music radio show, Rocket Hour, at the new Apple Music Studios at Battersea Power Station in London. The session was kept secret, and the program was intended to connect music with the work of the King’s Trust, which marks its 50th anniversary this year.

Charles turned 78 on Saturday, The Royal Observer reported. On the program, Charles and John talked about music’s power and musicians who had backed the charity during the past 50 years, according to the outlet.

“We and the Trust are definitely still standing,” Charles joked during last month’s recording, according to The Royal Observer.

“I’m still sitting now, though,” John replied.

“With occasional bits dropping off here and there. I know this is a terrible problem as we get older,” Charles said.

“HELLO!” reported that Charles was spending Saturday celebrating privately and that the episode would air that evening. A Royal Family Instagram post cited by Jang gave another time, telling listeners to “Tune in to a special edition of @EltonJohn’s Rocket Hour to celebrate 50 years of @KingsTrust, from 9am GMT today on @AppleMusic.”

Gun salutes mark Charles’s actual birthday publicly in London, with 41 in Green Park and 62 at the Tower of London. The bells of Westminster Abbey ring for his birthday, too.

William and Kate also posted a birthday tribute last year, when Charles turned 77, People reported via AOL. They shared a newly released picture of him in the gardens of Highgrove House in Gloucestershire.

Their earlier messages used similar wording. On Nov. 14, 2022, their @KensingtonRoyal account on X posted “Wishing a very happy birthday to His Majesty The King!”.

Charles has an official birthday celebration in June, when London weather is more reliable than in mid-November. The custom of marking a birthday twice dates to the 18th century, when King George II wanted to protect his public celebrations from bad weather.

The June celebration, Trooping the Colour, is a military parade with more than 1,400 soldiers and 200 horses. The royal family gathers on the Buckingham Palace balcony at its end to watch a Royal Air Force flypast.

ESPN's Adam Schefter shared the league's statement on X. "Due to the ongoing nationwide impact to air travel this weekend, the NFL has adjusted its officiating assignments for Week 10 games, reassigning officials to games within driving distance of their hometowns," the NFL said.

The NFL's 17 officiating crews each have a backup referee who prepares throughout the season to fill in when needed, the league said, according to Yahoo Sports.

Unlike teams, referees do not travel on charter flights, according to Dawgs By Nature. NFL referees generally hold full-time jobs during the week, the outlet said.

The revised assignments in the Yahoo Sports report list Duane Heydt for the Carolina Panthers' game against the New Orleans Saints and Barry Anderson for the Jacksonville Jaguars against the Tennessee Titans. Both matchups start Sunday at 1 p.m. ET on FOX.

Don Willard appears on the same list for the Miami Dolphins' Sunday afternoon game against the Indianapolis Colts on CBS. The list also assigns Willard to the Pittsburgh Steelers' game against the Cincinnati Bengals that night. In all, it names three backups for four games.

Whether Willard will work both games or the list is mistaken remained unclear.

In Munich, Germany, the New England Patriots play the Detroit Lions at 9:30 a.m. ET Sunday on NFL Network.

Before the travel disruptions, Sports Illustrated reported Nov. 12 that Clay Martin's crew was set to officiate in Munich.

Martin worked Detroit's Week 4 loss to Carolina, when officials called 17 penalties.

His crew's career high came in Week 9, with 23 penalties in the Colts' game against the Dallas Cowboys. At 13.44 penalties per game on average, the crew ranks fifth-lowest among officiating crews.

Detroit is 5-6 with Martin as head official.

Whether Martin's crew would still work in Munich remained unknown.

The Steelers and Bengals close Sunday's schedule at 8:20 p.m. ET on NBC. Each AFC North team enters Week 10 at 6-2 after winning four straight games.

The Spurs never trailed the Warriors, who were without Stephen Curry and fell behind 18-0 within a few minutes of the opening quarter. San Antonio stretched the margin to 43 points in the third quarter. Curry will miss at least two weeks with a right oblique tear, according to USA Today, and sustained the injury in Wednesday's 115-108 loss in Houston, according to The Associated Press.

Stephon Castle scored a season-high 32 points, including five 3-pointers, as the Spurs moved to 2-0 in West Group C. Victor Wembanyama finished with 12 points, 12 rebounds and six assists, while Keldon Johnson scored 18.

Warriors forward Draymond Green received a Flagrant Foul 1 for shoving Wembanyama from behind with his forearm, sending him tumbling out of bounds, and sat out the rest of the first half.

The LA Clippers took the closest of Friday's nine group games, beating Oklahoma City 113-112 for their first Cup group-play victory. Darius Garland's go-ahead three-point play capped a run of seven unanswered Clippers points.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander scored 40 for the Thunder, but his potential winning 21-foot jumper missed at the buzzer. Brook Lopez scored 26 and Garland had 24 for the Clippers, who began the season 1-7.

Oklahoma City was playing its third game in four nights and suffered a season-high third consecutive loss. Jared McCain scored 23 points and made a career-high seven 3-pointers.

New York's loss also ended on a missed shot. Indiana earned its first Cup group win, 106-104, with Pascal Siakam scoring 19 and Aaron Nesmith adding 18. Karl-Anthony Towns missed a potential tying 15-footer at the buzzer, The Associated Press reported, and Jalen Brunson paced the Knicks with 33 points.

Miami moved to 2-0 in East Group B by defeating Cleveland 133-121. Bam Adebayo recorded 37 points and 14 rebounds, while Giannis Antetokounmpo, who joined Miami in a trade this past offseason, had 37 points and nine rebounds. It was the second time two Heat players each scored 37 in the same game, after LeBron James and Dwyane Wade, the AP noted.

Davion Mitchell contributed 22 points and matched his career high with 17 assists. Miami has group games remaining against the 76ers and Knicks, according to Sports Illustrated.

Orlando joined Miami at 2-0 after a 107-99 win over Milwaukee, with Franz Wagner recording 35 points and 12 assists for his fourth consecutive game with at least 30 points. The Bucks are 1-12, their worst start in 52 years, according to Sportradar data cited by the AP.

Chicago ended an eight-game losing streak with a 125-117 overtime victory over Atlanta, led by Norman Powell's 33 points. Jalen Johnson registered a triple-double for the Hawks, including 11 rebounds and 10 assists.

Memphis had a franchise-record 10 double-figure scorers in a 142-111 win over New Orleans, with Jerami Grant leading the way at 22 points.

Houston handed Utah its 11th consecutive loss, 125-118, as Alperen Sengun finished with 43 points and 12 rebounds. Portland defeated Sacramento 120-107, getting 34 points from Deni Avdija and 29 from Damian Lillard.

Orlando, Miami and Boston lead the East groups after Friday, while Dallas, Minnesota and San Antonio top the West groups, with all six teams at 2-0. The Spurs and Celtics, who did not play Friday, share the top point differential at +53, and Sports Illustrated projects each as a No. 1 seed if group play ended now.

Four group-stage nights remain before the eight-team knockout bracket.

Owono, a 25-year-old Equatorial Guinea international, collided with De Miguel late in a Nov. 2 second-tier game between CD Tenerife and FC Andorra in Tenerife. De Miguel was 30 when he died the following day, and the disciplinary ruling came 10 days afterward.

The longest penalty available was 12 matches, the committee said. "In view of the nature of the conduct described and the accompanying circumstances... the maximum sanction, 12 matches of suspension, is justified," the panel said in its ruling.

The panel said its assessment "must be based on the facts expressly recorded in the referee's report." According to the committee’s English translation of that report, Owono was sent off for "violently striking an opponent in the chest with his leg, using excessive force, while the ball was in play."

Owono had left his penalty area and raced into midfield when he and De Miguel collided while contesting a high ball. Owono struck De Miguel in the chest, and De Miguel suffered cardiac arrest, the Associated Press reported. Owono received a straight red card.

Play ended seven minutes into stoppage time, when the match was abandoned, BBC Sport reported. Federation officials decided against a replay, leaving the 2-2 score at the time of the stoppage as the result.

The decision avoids a resumption "from the precise moment at which the tragic incident occurred," the federation said. A federation committee described letting the score stand as the "most respectful course of action, given the extraordinary and tragic circumstances of this case."

Owono’s statement

Owono offered condolences to De Miguel’s family in a Nov. 4 statement issued through FC Andorra. "These are the hardest days of my life," he said. "I struggle to find the words and it is very difficult for me to process anything that has happened," Owono said.

"I feel immense pain over the loss of Jesus," he said. "I think of him, of his family, and of all the people who loved him."

"I know there will be many issues to address, and I will face whatever comes with the utmost respect," Owono said. He ended his message with "Rest in peace, Jesus."

Andorra coach Carles Manso said Thursday that the decision on whether and when to play again belongs to Owono. "He is deeply affected by the situation," Manso said.

"We will give him the space to feel completely free to decide whether, and when, he might want to return," Manso told reporters. The coach said Owono is spending time with family and added, "What we have to do is support him in every way and be close to him."

It was not immediately known whether Owono or FC Andorra would appeal the suspension.

Tenerife players and fans came together last Saturday at the club’s stadium to remember and say goodbye to De Miguel. His funeral last Thursday drew about 400 mourners, including Spain coach Luis de la Fuente and Real Madrid president Florentino Perez.

Police investigation

Spanish law calls for a judicial inquiry when a death has non-natural causes, accidents included. An inquiry was opened under judicial supervision, The Telegraph reported, citing Spanish police sources who spoke to AFP.

Police are investigating possible involuntary manslaughter, AP reported, while prosecutors have said criminal proceedings are unlikely.

The Associated Press called the race Friday evening. Kreiss-Tomkins, a former state representative from Sitka, secured a majority of first-choice votes, eliminating the need for ranked-choice tabulation rounds.

At the time of the AP call, Kreiss-Tomkins had 50.8% against 28.1% for Republican Bernadette Wilson, whom Trump endorsed, according to Newsweek. At 37, he will be Alaska's youngest governor.

Kreiss-Tomkins will succeed Gov. Mike Dunleavy, a Republican who has held the office since 2018 and is barred by term limits from another term. Declaring victory Friday, Kreiss-Tomkins said, "Alaskans voted for change and for a government that works across party lines to move Alaska forward," and said his administration would "not waste a single day getting to work to solve problems for Alaska."

Wilson, the runner-up, told the Alaska Beacon on Friday, "JKT was on top on election night, on top in the first round," and added, "He’s gonna be your governor." She said that despite deep disagreements, she was glad an Alaska-born candidate had been elected to lead the state.

Wilson said the presence of three Republicans in the contest reduced the support they received from GOP donors. "The reality is, the Republican Party, the donors, you know, all of the conservative groups, they had the ability to suck the oxygen out of the room, even if other candidates do not want to withdraw," she said.

President Donald Trump had backed Wilson, a business owner, and criticized the other Republicans for remaining in the contest. In Newsweek's tally, former Anchorage Mayor Dave Bronson received 13.6%, while Treg Taylor, who served as attorney general under Dunleavy, got 7.7%.

Bronson congratulated Kreiss-Tomkins on social media, writing, "Alaskans have made their choice, and I respect their decision," and adding, "I wish him all the success."

Republican U.S. Sen. Lisa Murkowski endorsed Kreiss-Tomkins a week before the election, saying he "understands that governing requires listening to people with different perspectives and finding common ground to solve the problems all of us face." Three former governors also backed him: Democrat Tony Knowles, independent Bill Walker and Republican Frank Murkowski.

At a campaign debate, Kreiss-Tomkins earlier called himself a "man of the middle" and has said compromise "is a virtue, not a dirty word." His campaign platform included affordability, full funding for public schools and corporate income taxes for all oil and gas producers.

In a Nov. 2 Instagram post about riding a semi truck along the 520-mile Haul Road from Fairbanks to Prudhoe Bay, he wrote, "As governor, I’ll fight to keep our roads, like the Haul Road, maintained and safe so we can keep industry and commerce moving."

Voters kept ranked-choice voting in place by rejecting a ballot measure that would have scrapped it.

Kreiss-Tomkins has said he wants Republicans, Democrats and independents in his Cabinet. At an October candidate forum, he said of potential appointees, "If they’re competent, if they’re service-minded, if they’re entrepreneurial, if they’re problem-solvers, you’re on the team. Game on."

He told AKPM Alaska Public Media in a Friday interview that he expected to begin naming appointees next week, after suggesting earlier that some Dunleavy administration commissioners might stay. He said he expects to propose a "moderate" Permanent Fund dividend and pursue a constitutional amendment to tighten limits on annual withdrawals from the fund.

A war-driven rise in oil prices could produce a state budget surplus in the hundreds of millions of dollars, according to Alaska Public Media. "I know what the famine cycle looks like because that basically described all 10 years I happened to be in the Legislature," Kreiss-Tomkins told AKPM Alaska Public Media.

His victory helps give Democrats 30 governorships nationwide, up from 24. Alaska officials plan to certify the unofficial results on Nov. 25.

Zac Johnson, an independent and former Alaska State Trooper, will serve as lieutenant governor and resign his Anchorage Assembly seat. Kreiss-Tomkins is scheduled to take the oath at noon on Dec. 7.

Chelsea held the goal-difference advantage before kick-off. The closest challenger was a further four points behind, while victory would put City five points clear, The Guardian reported.

City took first place last week when Chelsea drew 1-1 with Everton, a Lucy Bronze own goal costing Chelsea two points.

Everton had 35% possession and did not register a shot on target.

Chelsea manager Sonia Bompastor said the results had prompted a response from her players and staff. "I think the two last results have been frustrating for us so it’s good to see from the players’ reaction but also the staff reaction," she said.

Bompastor said Chelsea’s hunger came from the Everton performance, which she said "was a game where we didn’t produce much on the pitch in terms of the attacking aspects." Chelsea had also dominated Hacken in Gothenburg during the week but could not score in a 0-0 Champions League draw.

"I’m convinced tomorrow we’ll create opportunities and we will have to be clinical for sure," Bompastor said. Before kick-off, she told the BBC that "it’s still too early to focus on where we will be at the end of the season."

City manager Andree Jeglertz said before the game that "these games are very special for everybody involved." He hoped Niamh Charles, Beth Mead and Vivianne Miedema would be available after all three trained on Thursday.

City came into the match having beaten West Ham 5-0 the previous weekend. "I feel we are in a good place," Jeglertz said.

Mead and Miedema made City’s published bench, while Knaak captained a starting side featuring Khadija Shaw.

Jeglertz told the BBC that Chelsea "have a central midfielder who is dominating a lot of games." He added, "Both teams are playing a lot man-to-man in the defending phase, so you need to escape from that."

Buchanan kept possession inside her own penalty area in the second minute as Shaw tried to take it, then toe-poked the ball to a teammate.

The final score was not immediately known.

The Guardian’s Suzanne Wrack wrote that Chelsea, City and Arsenal once played title-deciding matches against each other because investment and quality separated them from the rest of the league. She wrote that momentum, confidence, belief and bragging rights carried more importance in this game than the three points. City ended Chelsea’s run of six consecutive titles by winning the league last season.

Manchester United were at home to Crystal Palace at the same time. Maya Le Tissier was presented with a framed shirt for her 150th United appearance before kick-off and scored about 20 minutes later.

Le Tissier struck from about 20 yards, sending the ball dipping into the net’s corner. United had 79% possession after just over half an hour.

Victory would move United close to third-placed London City Lionesses, while Palace would enter the top half with a win. The Lionesses play Arsenal this weekend, with six points separating them.

Chelsea travel to the Joie Stadium for the return match against City in January, after three intervening rounds of league fixtures.

This is a developing story and will be updated.

“A device has been identified. We know it's a credible threat. We know it's a bomb,” Peoria Mayor Rita Ali told NBC affiliate WEEK, NBC News reported.

The BioUrja Renewables plant occupies a site on Edmund Street that previously housed the ADM plant. It stands beside the Illinois River in southern Peoria, which has 110,000 residents. Ali told WMBD News it is “a plant that has ethanol and highly combustible types of chemicals, and so that's what alarms us.”

Ali called it “a real crisis situation right now.”

The evacuation area extended across the river into parts of both Peoria and neighboring East Peoria, Ali said. More than 5,000 residents and workers were evacuated as a precaution, CNN reported, citing officials. No arrests had been made and no injuries had been reported.

The order was still active early Saturday as crews continued searching the plant, Dixon said.

“The area of BioUrja has not been rendered safe, just the package that was on site. It's a large facility, there's going to be an exhaustive search,” Dixon said. He said the search would probably take several hours.

BioUrja sought police assistance after a bomb threat, which Dixon said came to officers’ attention a little after 1 p.m. Friday. Officers discovered a suspicious package that afternoon, and police subsequently judged it a credible threat and established a one-mile blast radius.

Police urged everyone who lived or worked inside that radius to evacuate immediately at around 7 p.m. At 9:12 p.m., a bomb technician made the package safe.

Authorities at the local and federal levels gave no details about the device. “I don't want to get into how many we found, where we found them,” Dixon told NBC News.

Ali said officials did not know “whether there's one device or whether there's multiple devices.”

During much of Friday evening, the emergency was described as a bomb threat rather than a verified bomb. Bomb threats and brief evacuations are relatively common in the United States, but officials find explosive devices capable of posing a large-scale threat far less often.

Dixon said bomb threats nationally are usually not legitimate, but “this is not the case here. We found a credible package that we deem to be a threat.” “We're not considering this a hoax,” he said.

Responders included the FBI, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, Illinois State Police, the Peoria Fire Department and the Peoria County Sheriff's office. The Illinois Secretary of State's Office was involved, too.

“While it is early in the investigation, know this: we will work tirelessly to identify the individual responsible and bring them to justice,” FBI Special Agent Ryan Presley said.

Gov. JB Pritzker urged residents to “follow directions from law enforcement and stay clear of the area.” Pritzker and Rep. Darin LaHood posted on social media that they were monitoring events and urged residents to obey evacuation orders.

Rep. Eric Sorensen met evacuees at a shelter Friday night. “If you are within the one mile radius of the chemical plant BioUrja in Peoria, you have to evacuate,” he said.

Police sent people seeking shelter to Manual Academy, a Peoria high school. Ali told residents a local high school basement was available for shelter.

Country singer Jon Pardi canceled his Friday concert at the Peoria Civic Center. “At the direction of the Chief of Police, tonight's concert has been canceled due to an active local safety concern,” he wrote on Instagram, adding that tickets would be refunded.

“He will play from the start, there's no doubt,” Ravenna manager Andrea Mandorlini said on Friday. “We always play with three forwards. He will be one of the three,” he said.

The Brazilian last played competitively for Fluminense in September 2015 and retired that year with 299 career goals, one shy of 300. He has said he hopes to reach that mark.

Ravenna president Ignazio Cipriani said earlier in 2026, “His objective is romantic, to try to score his last goal.”

Ronaldinho took a more cautious position on the 300th goal in an interview with La Gazzetta dello Sport. “Right now I'm not thinking about it... then we'll see,” he said.

A temporary 1,800-seat stand called R10 has been added at the Stadio Bruno Benelli for his debut. Ravenna sit second in their Serie C division after 13 matches.

The expected playing time differs between accounts. Yahoo Sports reported that Mandorlini had confirmed about 30 minutes, while Corriere della Sera reported around 15 minutes.

“Then together we will decide how long he plays,” Mandorlini said. Ravenna forward Simone Rabbi has said Ronaldinho will take any penalties the club are awarded, the BBC reported.

Ronaldinho told La Gazzetta dello Sport that he returned “because of the friendship we have with [Ravenna President] Ignazio Cipriani and because of the things we want for the future.”

Cipriani has said Ronaldinho is a Ravenna shareholder as well as a player. In an earlier interview with La Gazzetta dello Sport, quoted by ESPN, Cipriani said Ronaldinho “also wants to launch his technical brand, R10, in the style of Michael Jordan, if you will, so Ravenna will be the first team to wear this brand.”

Ronaldinho flew from Barcelona to Forlì on Friday and joined his new teammates for dinner that evening. He was to train with them only once before the match, on Saturday.

His honors include the 2002 World Cup with Brazil, the 2005 Ballon d'Or and the 2006 Champions League with Barcelona. At AC Milan, he scored his first Italian goal against Inter in a derby. His final Milan appearance came against Roma at San Siro on Dec. 18, 2010.

It was not immediately known whether Ronaldinho would play further matches for Ravenna after Sunday.

The derby kicks off at 4.30 p.m. GMT on Sunday at the Stadio Bruno Benelli. ESPN reported that viewers in the United Kingdom can watch free on the Sky Sports Football YouTube channel and Ronaldinho's KICK channel, R10 Comeback.

Rooney was broadly smiling when he landed at Surfers Paradise on the Gold Coast, the Daily Star reported. Paralympian Ade Adepitan made a helicopter jump too, landing on the sand.

"My biggest fear is probably to stand on the edge of a plane and jump out, that's terrifying," Rooney said earlier.

The skydive was recorded for the upcoming series; its ITV premiere is on Monday, Nov. 16.

"Wayne has always been nervous when it comes to heights and helicopters, so it seemed an obvious choice for bosses to get him doing the famous skydiving trial before entering camp," an unnamed source told the Daily Mail.

"And to everyone's surprise, he absolutely loved it. It will make for great television," the source said.

Rooney's new campmates gave him encouragement, the source said, but there was no time for high fives before he was "whisked off immediately after to do an interview and film his reaction for the show."

"I don't like snakes or what is in the water either – I don't go in the sea," Rooney said before the season premiere.

"This is probably the biggest exposure I've ever had, being on TV every night for three weeks," he said before the premiere.

Rooney wore grey clothes and a baseball cap when he arrived in Australia on Monday. "Yeah I've never been to Australia. I was meant to come once when doing Thailand," he told reporters on arrival.

Adepitan, 53, is a TV presenter and former Paralympic basketball player. He reached the beach in an electric all-terrain wheelchair built for challenging ground, which he had previously discussed on social media.

The Daily Mail reported that ITV producers spent nine months making the jungle camp accessible to Adepitan, with changes including rest areas, wheelchair bays, crutch holders and other bespoke adaptations. Inquisitr was unable to verify the report independently.

The paper said discussions about Adepitan joining the series started last year, and he went to Australia with producers in February to advise them on meeting his needs at camp.

According to a source quoted by the paper, Adepitan embraced the experience as soon as filming began. "Viewers are going to be very impressed with Ade's performance from the first episode," the source said.

The 12-strong line-up includes Gavin and Stacey actress Joanna Page, Coronation Street actress Claire Sweeney and model Leomie Anderson.

"There's cockroaches right now in my living room, so I'll be fine," YouTuber Sharky, 30, said earlier about jungle insects.

Another celebrity, whose identity was unknown, was spotted holding a flare while standing atop a moving lorry.

The celebrities will be divided into two teams in Monday's launch episode as they start their jungle stay in New South Wales.

"The Americans raised a question," Zelenskyy said, explaining that they asked if Ukraine would withdraw from Donbas upon joining NATO. "This was the first time this had been raised," he said.

The question led Zelenskyy to believe "NATO is back on the agenda." U.S. officials had previously ruled out Ukrainian membership.

Zelenskyy cautioned, "You have also heard Putin's signals, and this is an extremely difficult conversation." He said there was no concrete offer and reiterated that Ukraine would neither pull out its troops nor give up its territory.

It remained unclear whether Washington would confirm raising the question, whether a formal U.S. proposal exists or when talks will resume.

Referendum proposal

Zelenskyy said he would put the question to a referendum if Ukraine received a package with security guarantees, military funding and reconstruction money.

If Western countries confirmed those guarantees, he said, "then I will ask our Ukrainian society what it thinks: do we accept it or not?". "I have no right to make that decision on my own," Zelenskyy said.

He said no arrangement would recognize occupied territories as Russian. "If Putin expects Ukraine's neutrality to be enshrined, that's not going to happen," he said.

Moscow demands that Ukraine leave the parts of Donbas still controlled by Kyiv and opposes its NATO membership, saying another member on Russia's border is unacceptable. Donbas consists of the Donetsk and Luhansk regions; Russia occupies most of that area and about one-fifth of Ukraine's territory overall.

Giving up Ukraine's remaining portions would be a small practical concession but would constitute acceptance of Donbas as Russian, BBC News reported.

Talks and European security

Zelenskyy spoke after visiting Denmark and Ireland to meet European leaders, following two days of U.S.-brokered Ukraine-Russia talks in Abu Dhabi, Agence France-Presse reported. AFP said his remarks to reporters Friday were embargoed until Saturday, while BBC News reported that he spoke Saturday.

Apart from renewed prisoner exchanges, the Abu Dhabi talks yielded little visible progress and no breakthrough, AFP reported.

U.S. envoys Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff subsequently held separate meetings with Russian President Vladimir Putin and Zelenskyy. Zelenskyy said Moscow discussions with U.S. negotiators yielded an exchange agreement involving more than 1,000 people on each side, with his estimate at 1,200 to 1,300.

"On the proposal for an energy ceasefire: the Russians don't want it," Zelenskyy said.

Zelenskyy said the United States also raised a possible new European security framework. He warned that Moscow might exploit discussions on it to weaken NATO and redraw Europe's borders. "This is dangerous because, in my view, it is precisely things like this that lead to wars or escalations," he said.

He said "real security in Europe means the EU and NATO" and that "there is no other security in Europe."

Washington backed Ukraine's demand for direct European participation in negotiations, Zelenskyy said. The European Union said Friday that diplomats from countries including Germany, France, the United Kingdom and Poland would join future talks.

Moscow has long sought to exclude European states from negotiations because they support Ukraine.

Russian authorities said a Ukrainian drone attack Saturday killed a mother, father and their 24-month-old daughter at their Proletarsky home, in the Belgorod region about 20km from Ukraine's border.

European representatives are due at the next round of talks after all sides agreed to include them in future negotiations.
