By MIKE CATALINI CHATHAM, N.J. (AP) — That buzzing coming out of New Jersey? It’s unclear if it’s drones or something else, but for sure the nighttime sightings are producing tons of talk, a raft of conspiracy theories and craned necks looking skyward.

This week seems to have begun a new, higher-profile chapter: Lawmakers are demanding (but so far not getting) explanations from federal and state authorities about what’s behind them. Gov. Phil Murphy wrote to President Joe Biden asking for answers. New Jersey’s new senator, Andy Kim, spent Thursday night on a drone hunt in rural northern New Jersey, and posted about it on X. But perhaps the most fantastic development is the dizzying proliferation of conspiracies — none of which has been confirmed or suggested by federal and state officials who say they’re looking into what’s happening. It has become shorthand to refer to the flying machines as drones, but there are questions about whether what people are seeing are unmanned aircraft or something else. Some theorize the drones came from an Iranian mothership. Others think they are the Secret Service making sure President-elect Donald Trump’s Bedminster property is secure. Others worry about China. The deep state. And on. In the face of uncertainty, people have done what they do in 2024: Create a social media group. The Facebook page, New Jersey Mystery Drones — let’s solve it , has nearly 44,000 members, up from 39,000 late Thursday. People are posting their photo and video sightings, and the online commenters take it from there. One video shows a whitish light flying in a darkened sky, and one commenter concludes it’s otherworldly. “Straight up orbs,” the person says. Others weigh in to say it’s a plane or maybe a satellite. Another group called for hunting the drones literally, shooting them down like turkeys. (Do not shoot at anything in the sky, experts warn.) Trisha Bushey, 48, of Lebanon Township, New Jersey, lives near Round Valley Reservoir where there have been numerous sightings. She said she first posted photos online last month wondering what the objects were and became convinced they were drones when she saw how they moved and when her son showed her on a flight tracking site that no planes were around. Now she’s glued to the Mystery Drones page, she said. “I find myself — instead of Christmas shopping or cleaning my house — checking it,” she said. She doesn’t buy what the governor said, that the drones aren’t a risk to public safety. Murphy told Biden on Friday that residents need answers. The federal Homeland Security Department and FBI also said in a joint statement they have no evidence that the sightings pose “a national security or public safety threat or have a foreign nexus.” “How can you say it’s not posing a threat if you don’t know what it is?” she said. “I think that’s why so many people are uneasy.” Then there’s the notion that people could misunderstand what they’re seeing. William Austin is the president of Warren County Community College, which has a drone technology degree program, and is coincidentally located in one of the sighting hotspots. Austin says he has looked at videos of purported drones and that airplanes are being misidentified as drones. He cited an optical effect called parallax, which is the apparent shift of an object when viewed from different perspectives. Austin encouraged people to download flight and drone tracker apps so they can better understand what they’re looking at. Nonetheless, people continue to come up with their own theories. “It represents the United States of America in 2024,” Austin said. “We’ve lost trust in our institutions, and we need it.” Federal officials echo Austin’s view that many of the sightings are piloted aircraft such as planes and helicopters being mistaken for drones, according to lawmakers and Murphy. That’s not really convincing for many, though, who are homing in on the sightings beyond just New Jersey and the East Coast, where others have reported seeing the objects. For Seph Divine, 34, another member of the drone hunting group who lives in Eugene, Oregon, it feels as if it’s up to citizen sleuths to solve the mystery. He said he tries to be a voice of reason, encouraging people to fact check their information, while also asking probing questions. “My main goal is I don’t want people to be caught up in the hysteria and I also want people to not just ignore it at the same time,” he said. “Whether or not it’s foreign military or some secret access program or something otherworldly, whatever it is, all I’m saying is it’s alarming that this is happening so suddenly and so consistently for hours at a time,” he added.

Creative Biolabs: A Specialist in Lipid-Based Drug Delivery System DevelopmentORANGEBURG – Summerville quarterback Jaden Cummings sat on the Green Wave bench, crutches by his side, looking up at the scoreboard and wishing for a different result. As the final seconds ticked off the clock at Willie Jeffries Field and the Dutch Fork players stormed the field, Cummings could only shake his head and wonder what might have been if he’d been able to play the entire game. Cumming, who was knocked out of the game with a knee injury in the first half, did all he could to will the Green Wave to a victory. It just wasn’t meant to be. Summerville faces perennial power Dutch Fork for title Maurice Anderson rushed for 146 yards and three touchdowns and Ethan Offing added 252 passing yards and two more scores to lead Dutch Fork past Summerville, 35-21, in the Class AAAAA Division I championship game at Oliver C. Dawson Stadium on Dec. 13. It was the ninth state championship in the past 12 years for the Silver Foxes (12-0) and the third straight title. The Green Wave (12-1) were playing in their first state title game since 2007 and the first one since legendary coach John McKissick – the nation’s all-time winningest high school football coach – retired. “You train your whole life to get to this point in your life,” said Cummings, who threw for 2,300 yards during the season and signed to play football at Dartmouth next fall. “I’m so proud of my team and the way they stepped up. You feel helpless on the sidelines, but I was doing everything I could to help everyone out and keep their spirits up. The wait is over “Super proud of the whole team, the coaches, everyone. We had a great season. We battled every game, and we overcame so much adversity this year.” The Silver Foxes rolled through their regular season schedule – the closest game was a 24-14 win over Irmo – and had faced little resistance in the playoffs outscoring its three opponents, 118-28. The Green Wave gave the defending champs all they could handle. “We had some opportunities that we let squander away,” said Summerville coach Ian Rafferty. “We forced a turnover that we didn’t capitalize on and then we let them off the hook when we had them at the 10-yard line late in the first half. We had our chances. That’s a resilient group of teenagers over there. “They could have easily laid down and they didn’t. We don’t make any excuses around here. We fight and we fought them until the end and make it a four quarter game.” Unbeaten Summerville waking up echoes in search of state title When Cummings went down midway through the second quarter, back-up Cooper Kafina entered the game and finished with 173 passing yards and one TD. “Obviously losing your senior quarterback is going to make it difficult,” Rafferty said. “I thought Cooper came in, made some nice throws and gave us a chance to get back into the game.” It took the Silver Foxes all of four plays and 72 seconds to get on the scoreboard. Dutch Fork took the opening kickoff and marched 76 yards for the TD with Anderson scoring from eight yards out with 10:48 to play in the first quarter. The Silver Foxes’ TD was set up by Offing’s 63-yard strike to KJ Smith that put the ball at the Green Wave’s 10-yard line. Summerville answered on the ensuing possession as Cummings found sophomore Jaiden Kelly-Murray for an 18-yard TD on a fourth-and-14 play to give the Green Wave a 7-6 advantage with 5:36 to play in the first quarter. Kelly-Murray finished with 152 receiving yards and two TDs. Summerville eliminated after loss to White Knoll Summerville extended its advantage to 14-6 on Jayvyn Williams’ 43-yard TD run on the second play of the second quarter. Williams, who had 133 rushing yards, found a crease on the right side of the formation, eluded a Silver Foxes’ defender, and then raced untouched into the end zone. Offing’s 19-yard TD pass to Boykin Bickley and the two-point conversion tied the game at 14 with eight minutes left before halftime. The Silver Foxes regained the lead on Williams’ second TD run of the first half – this one a bruising 8-yard romp – to put Dutch Fork ahead 21-14 with under two minutes to play before intermission. Green Wave looks to remain a contender The Silver Foxes pushed their advantage to 28-14 on Offing’s 20-yard TD pass to Bickley with 7:34 left in the third quarter. Down two touchdowns, the Green Wave kept battling. Summerville back-up QB Cooper Kafina, who replaced starter Jaden Cummings in the second quarter, found a wide open Kelly-Murray behind the Sliver Foxes defense for a 77-yard bomb that cut the lead to 28-21 with 6:28 to play in the third quarter. Anderson scored his third TD on a 38-yard run with 1:14 to play.Bengaluru: India’s top five information technology services companies grew at a slower clip in the first nine months of this year, defying hopes that the $254 billion industry would rebound after reporting its weakest growth ever in 2023. Yet, save for Wipro Ltd, the shares of the remaining four IT services firms—Tata Consultancy Services Ltd, Infosys Ltd, HCL Technologies Ltd, and Tech Mahindra Ltd—have delivered better returns than both the Sensex and the Nifty 50 so far this year. In 2023, TCS and Infosys stocks fared worse than the Sensex, while the other three outperformed. The Nifty IT index has also vastly outperformed the two benchmark indices, gaining 22.48% in the year through 27 December. The Sensex has gained 8.89% so far this year, and the Nifty 50, 9.53%. Analysts say investors are loading up on Indian IT stocks in anticipation of a recovery in tech spending by Fortune 500 companies as the US Federal Reserve is set to cut its key interest rates further. The Fed has but indicated earlier this month that it may opt for fewer rate cuts next year as it battles stubborn inflation. “... As interest rates ease, discretionary spends can pick up, translating to more business for IT service providers," Pramod Gubbi, founder of Marcellus Investment Managers. “When the US Fed indicated (in September) that it was done with rate hikes from March 2023, the market had started to factor in growth." TCS, Infosys, HCLTech and Wipro saw their order books, or total contract value, decline in the first half of 2024-25 (April-September) compared to the corresponding year-earlier period, marked by the absence of ‘mega deals’ that are worth more than $1 billion. The second half of the fiscal year (October-March) is historically weaker for Indian IT services companies because of fewer billing days and more holidays. Even so, these companies have issued positive revenue guidance for FY25 and have been hiring more people. “This year, as growth is looking promising, the IT sector is outperforming out of expectation that things will get better, and hence the returns," said Sanjeev Hota, vice-president, head of research at Mirae Asset Sharekhan. Keith Bachman, an analyst with BMO Capital Markets, said in a 12 December report that increased hiring by India’s largest IT services firms in recent quarters was a leading indicator signalling better growth, which in turn could drive a rally in their stocks. Mint reported last week that a renewed hiring spree by Dublin-headquartered and NYSE-listed Accenture Plc painted a as it signalled a rebound in global IT spending. Yet, analysts are cautiously optimistic about the prospects of Indian IT services firms next year considering the rise of generative artificial intelligence, or GenAI, which could dash the sanguine outlook. “GenAI is deflationary in my view as it will mean that IT services will be delivered by fewer people, and therefore, the revenue can come down," said Gubbi, adding that the money saved by customers will go to more GenAI investments and new streams of work will come from GenAI. While AI and GenAI currently account for only a fraction of IT services companies’ revenues, these technologies are biting into their clients’ discretionary IT spending. “... We question if 2025 IT services market growth will benefit from net new demand, including new generative AI projects, more so than current pricing pressure and generative AI deflationary forces," said Bachman of BMO Capital Markets. “A plausible scenario could be that in 2025, IT services growth might improve over 2024 (with upside tension to consensus estimates in this scenario), and then as the capabilities of generative AI grow and improve, the deflationary impact is more pronounced in 2026 and beyond, leading to prolonged growth headwinds."Liberty All-Star® Growth Fund, Inc.

DALLAS — DNA testing has revolutionized more than just medical science, it's rewriting family histories and bringing long-lost heroes home. Across North Texas, people are discovering family secrets that have been buried for decades, while military families are finally getting closure for their fallen loved ones. From a 91-year-old man meeting his birth mother's family for the first time to a Korean War POW's remains being identified after 72 years, these stories reveal how a simple DNA test can unravel decades of mystery. Some found fathers they never knew existed while others discovered entire families waiting with open arms. For veterans' families, DNA has become the crucial link in identifying remains of service members from World War II and the Korean War, allowing these heroes to finally return home for proper military honors - even after more than 70 years. Watch our special presentation to see how DNA technology is changing lives and reuniting families across North Texas here: Related Articles A smashed Taylor Swift guitar, smashed QB mansion and smashed alarm clocks: Here's the most viral stories from 2024 with DFW ties This Christmas, join us for a 'Peppermint Place' marathon on WFAA+! WFAA's most watched stories of 2024The New England Patriots will head to Hard Rock Stadium with 10 questionable. Top cornerback Christian Gonzalez, who was added to the injury report due to a hip issue following Friday’s practice, headlines the list. The No. 17 overall pick in the 2023 NFL draft became a limited participant alongside a returning defensive captain in Deatrich Wise Jr. to conclude AFC East preparations. But defensive tackle Jaquelin Roy has been ruled out after staying sidelined throughout work on the Miami Dolphins because of a neck injury. Here’s the rest of the game statuses leading up to Sunday’s 1 p.m. ET kickoff. A neck issue forced Roy out of what became a 19-3 win over the Chicago Bears at Soldier Field. The defensive tackle, who was promoted from the practice squad to the 53-man roster in October, has missed consecutive weeks of practice since then. And now consecutive games. He stands with 17 tackles and the initial two sacks of his NFL career this season. No member of New England’s defense has handled more snaps than Gonzalez this fall. The sophomore has played 98 percent of the downs in the secondary while totaling 11 starts, 46 tackles and the second interception of his tenure. As for Wise, the 2017 draft choice missed one game and five practices due to a foot injury before making his way back on Friday in a partial capacity. And at offensive and defensive tackle, Lowe and Barmore both spent time on the sidelines heading into the trip to Miami Gardens. The latter made his 2024 debut last Sunday against the Los Angeles Rams after being diagnosed with blood clots at the start of training camp in July. Elsewhere in Foxborough, Strange recently had his 21-day practice window open. The Chattanooga product, now factoring in at the center spot, suffered a torn patellar tendon last December and continues to reside on the physically unable to perform list. But tight end Austin Hooper, defensive linemen Daniel Ekuale and Davon Godchaux, as well as linebacker Christian Elliss all will go without game designations for the Patriots.

Will the National Electoral Institute (INE) be able to meet its usual high standards when organizing Mexico’s first ever judicial elections in 2025, despite a sizable cut to its budget? There are conflicting answers to that question within the INE itself. Before we get to those, let’s first look at how we got here. Almost three months ago, former president Andrés Manuel López Obrador promulgated a controversial judicial reform that set the stage for judicial elections to be held in Mexico for the first time ever in 2025. Citizens will elect a total of 881 federal judges on June 1, 2025, including nine Supreme Court justices. The INE requested funding of 40.47 billion pesos (about US $2 billion) to carry out all its activities in 2025, including the organization of the judicial elections and elections in Durango and Veracruz. The federal government proposed that that amount be allocated to the institute in the budget proposal it submitted to the lower house of Congress in November . However, this week the Chamber of Deputies — dominated by lawmakers with the ruling Morena party and its allies — voted in favor of reducing the INE’s budget by 13.47 billion pesos, down to 27 billion pesos (US $1.34 billion). The cut in percentage terms is 33.3%. INE proposed using 13.2 billion pesos for next year’s judicial elections, but was only allocated 7 billion pesos for that purpose. That means the INE will have to make do with 47% less resources than what it calculated is necessary. Ricardo Monreal, Morena’s leader in the Chamber of Deputies, said on social media that lawmakers approved “an austere and responsible budget that guarantees economic stability and confidence in Mexico.” Critics of the federal government’s judicial reform argue that the direct election of judges will politicize the judiciary, but President Claudia Sheinabum and other government officials reject claims that Mexico’s courts will lose their independence. Sheinbaum asserts that a judicial overhaul via the election of judges is necessary to eliminate corruption and other ills from Mexico’s justice system. Before the Chamber of Deputies approved the reduction to the INE’s 2025 budget, the electoral institute issued a statement in which it said that carrying out the judicial elections to “the same standards of quality to which Mexican citizens are accustomed requires the approval of the budget as it was requested.” Issued on Wednesday, the statement was titled “the INE is confident that the budget requested from the Chamber of Deputies will be approved.” However, as noted above, that was not the case. In its statement, the INE said that if the Chamber of Deputies approved “the reduction proposed by the Budget and Public Accounts Committee,” it would face an “enormous challenge” in organizing and carrying out the 2025 judicial elections. To underscore the need for it to receive all the funding it requested, the INE noted that the number of federal judges to be elected next year — 881 — is higher than the number of federal representatives elected at the 2024 elections. A total of 629 federal representatives were elected on June 2: President Claudia Sheinbaum, 500 deputies and 128 senators. In a radio interview on Thursday, INE president Guadalupe Taddei said that the electoral institute will guarantee that high-quality and trustworthy judicial elections are held next year even though it won’t have the funds it requested. “We can’t lower the quality [of the elections],” she told Radio Fórmula. Taddei said that the INE will “have to take this [budget] cut with all the professionalism in the world.” She indicated that the INE is not happy with the cut, but described it as a “fait accompli.” The INE’s first woman president — elected to the position last year — said that the electoral institute will have to “quickly” look at ways it can reduce costs given that it will have less funding than it anticipated and hoped for. In subsequent remarks on Thursday, Taddei described the budget cut as “extremely big,” but once again stressed that it won’t “diminish the quality of the [judicial] electoral process.” However, she did say that the INE “is obliged to reconsider the entire operational structure” for the judicial elections. Instead of setting up 172,000 (often small) polling stations known as casillas , the INE is looking at the possibility of installing around 80,000 larger “voting centers,” Taddei said. Norma Irene de la Cruz Magaña, one of 11 electoral councilors including Taddei, said that many citizens will have to travel five or ten blocks to vote in the judicial elections rather than just one. “But we’re not going to reduce the quality [of the elections] or take shortcuts,” she said. “We’re going to guarantee that every voter has a ballot,” de la Cruz said. Claudia Zavala, another electoral councilor, said in a radio interview that the budget cut “will affect the right of citizens to have an electoral process with institutional guarantees.” She also highlighted that many citizens will have to travel longer distances to cast their votes. Zavala said that the INE will do its best with the money it is allocated but added that doesn’t guarantee it will be able to organize the judicial elections with the usual “quality standards and guarantees” as ensuring such things “requires resources.” For his part, electoral councilor Jaime Rivera said in an interview that the budget cut will affect the INE’s capacity to organize elections with its usual “efficiency, ... transparency and reliability in the results.” He said that the funding amount the INE requested for the judicial elections was the “result of serious and objective analysis,” rather than a figure it came up with on a “whim.” Rivera also said that the organization of the judicial elections would be “considerably more complicated” than the organization of the recent federal elections. There will be significantly more candidates , vying for positions in various courts. “We have to say it with complete clarity — with such a severe reduction in the resources allocated, it is impossible to maintain the same quality in the organization of elections,” Rivera said.

Georgia quarterback Carson Beck announced Saturday that he will forgo his final year of eligibility and enter the 2025 NFL Draft. Beck, 22, led the Southeastern Conference with 28 touchdown passes and finished third in the SEC with 3,485 passing yards. He also led the conference in interceptions, however. Beck will be a spectator for the Bulldogs in the College Football Playoff after undergoing surgery Monday to repair the ulnar collateral ligament in his right (throwing) elbow. Gunner Stockton is in line to guide No. 2 seed Georgia into the CFP, starting with the Bulldogs' quarterfinal game against No. 7 seed Notre Dame at the Sugar Bowl on Wednesday in New Orleans. "There's unfinished business still this season and I'll be here to support however I can, finish strong!" Beck said in a statement posted on social media. Beck, a fifth-year senior, finished with a 24-3 record in his career with Georgia. "The past five years at the University of Georgia have been nothing short of a dream come true and I will forever cherish the memories that have been made. Thank you Dawg Nation for the time I've been here and to those who've supported and believed in me, thank you," Beck wrote on social media. "It's been an incredible journey and all these moments have ultimately led me to take the next step in my football career. With that being said, I will be declaring for the 2025 NFL Draft. Go Dawgs!" Beck, the Bulldogs' starter all year, was replaced in the second half of the SEC title game with the injury. Stockton helped to guide the Bulldogs to a 22-19 overtime win over Texas and clinch a first-round bye in the first 12-team playoff. --Field Level MediaSamsonov stellar in Golden Knights’ 3-0 victory against Flames
