philucky777 Exeter Chiefs and Newcastle Falcons put league struggles behind them to keep up perfect Premiership Rugby Cup records on Friday and move closer to booking quarter-final spots. Exeter are winless in the Premiership after six games but continue to use this competition to boost flatlining fortunes. An outcome which was rarely in doubt finished 31-7 in their favour as Gloucester were downed for the first time in this competition since December 2022. Newcastle won a thriller 28-27 against Sale Sharks, Brett Connon converting Max Pepper's late try to win by a solitary point. In the other match, Leicester Tigers posted a first win in three cup outings leaving Championship outfit Nottingham floored after a second-half mauling which saw them win 70-29. Whatever the misery inflicted by a winless Premiership campaign, it was all smiles for Exeter after a convincing victory over Premiership Rugby Cup holders Gloucester. In a match the visitors dominated from start to finish, Rus Tuima got the ball rolling after five minutes, burrowing over from close range. Ben Hammersley added a second, converted by Josh Hodge to give the Chiefs a 14-0 early lead against their shellshocked hosts. A rampaging effort from Will Rigg, a stunning 70-yard effort from Hodge and a Stu Townsend score completed a 31-0 first-half rout, with Val Rapava Ruskin's second-half score a consolation for the hosts. Leicester roared back from an early scare against Championship side Nottingham, for whom Harry Clayton crossed twice to put them into a 12-0 lead after 22 minutes, raising the prospect of a third defeat for the Tigers following losses to Northampton Saints and Coventry. But Leicester bounced back with four tries before the break to lead 28-12 at half-time, with Matt Rogerson, Archie Vanes, Ollie Allan and Solomone Kata going over. In the second half the Premiership side displayed class and ruthlessness in equal proportions, running in a further six tries. Izaia Perese, James Whitcombe, Jack Kinder, Ollie Hassell-Collins (2) and Emeka Ilione all touched down after the interval. At Kingston Park, Pepper and Connon combined late to extend Newcastle's record to three wins from three and, like Exeter, they have collected a maximum 15 points. Tadgh McElroy had crashed over early on to give Sale the lead but a Connon penalty and Jamie Blamire's close-range try put the Falcons in front 8-5. James Harper went over from close range before Tom Gordon for Newcastle and Tom Curtis for Sale exchanged tries. After Ben Stevenson scored for the hosts, Rouban Birch looked to have sealed matters with a try to make it 27-18 at 68 minutes. But a Falcons penalty reduced the gap to six points and Pepper ran in late on to set up Connon and leave Sale stunned.

By JOSH BOAK WASHINGTON (AP) — President-elect Donald Trump on Thursday voiced his support for the dockworkers union before their contract expires next month at Eastern and Gulf Coast ports, saying that any further “automation” of the ports would harm workers.

Foreign companies have made a fortune in the U.S. by giving them access to our markets. They shouldn’t be looking for every last penny knowing how many families are hurt.” The International Longshoremen’s Association has until Jan. 15 to negotiate a new contract with the U.S. Maritime Alliance, which represents ports and shipping companies. At the heart of the dispute is whether ports can install automated gates, cranes and container-moving trucks that could make it faster to unload and load ships. The union argues that automation would lead to fewer jobs, even though higher levels of productivity could do more to boost the salaries of remaining workers. The Maritime Alliance said in a statement that the contract goes beyond ports to “supporting American consumers and giving American businesses access to the global marketplace – from farmers, to manufacturers, to small businesses, and innovative start-ups looking for new markets to sell their products.” “To achieve this, we need modern technology that is proven to improve worker safety, boost port efficiency, increase port capacity, and strengthen our supply chains,” said the alliance, adding that it looks forward to working with Trump. In October, the union representing 45,000 dockworkers went on strike for three days, raising the risk that a prolonged shutdown could push up inflation by making it difficult to unload container ships and export American products overseas. The issue pits an incoming president who won November’s election on the promise of bringing down prices against commitments to support blue-collar workers along with the kinds of advanced technology that drew him support from Silicon Valley elite such as billionaire Elon Musk. Trump sought to portray the dispute as being between U.S. workers and foreign companies, but advanced ports are also key for staying globally competitive. China is opening a $1.3 billion port in Peru that could accommodate ships too large for the Panama Canal. There is a risk that shippers could move to other ports, which could also lead to job losses. Mexico is constructing a port that is highly automated, while Dubai, Singapore and Rotterdam already have more advanced ports. Instead, Trump said that ports and shipping companies should eschew “machinery, which is expensive, and which will constantly have to be replaced.” “For the great privilege of accessing our markets, these foreign companies should hire our incredible American Workers, instead of laying them off, and sending those profits back to foreign countries,” Trump posted. “It is time to put AMERICA FIRST!”

For “Hysteria!” actresses Anna Camp and Julie Bowen, horror is harder than comedy. “Horror is really hard actually because there is a fine line you have to walk; you have to make it feel grounded and you’re put in these extreme circumstances: You’re being possessed or pulled through the air, there’s nothing you can do to relate to that,” explained Camp of “Pitch Perfect” fame. “With comedy, you can have a relatable situation and go, ‘I’ve been in situations like that.’ There’s nothing you can compare (horror) to, so you have to use your imagination. I find it harder. Your imagination goes home with you at the end of the day. You’re still thinking crazy thoughts.” Bowen, best known for playing Claire Dunphy on “Modern Family,” agreed. “Comedy’s pretty binary because it’s like either you can make people laugh or you don’t. I can’t watch horror. I’m terrified, terrified! I am the easiest scare in the world, so as far as doing (horror), I want to make it as real as possible. It was hard because I had to be really, really crazy. There were times when I’d get back to my hotel room at 3 a.m., I didn’t want to be alone in my head,” said Bowen, laughing. Camp, Bowen, Royal Oak native Bruce Campbell (“Evil Dead”), showrunner David A. Goodman (“Futurama”), and Ypsilanti native/creator Matthew Scott Kane (“American Horror Story”) were promoting “Hysteria!” at the New York Comic Con in October. The horror series is streaming on Peacock. Set in the fictional Michigan town of Happy Hollow, the first episode of “Hysteria” begins with a popular quarterback’s disappearance and a pentagram is discovered on a garage door. As a result, rumors of the occult and satanic influence run rampant through the town. A trio of outcasts in a heavy metal band called Dethkrunch exploit this by rebranding themselves as a satanic metal band, which leads to them becoming the targets of the town’s witch hunt. “Something on my mind a lot in 2019 was we’re living in this post-factual age with social media. It seemed like decades and decades ago, you could trust the news. Now everything is in question. When lies end up getting disseminated as truth, that starts to warp people’s version of reality. Suddenly, they’re living in a world other people are not. That was going on in the world I was living in and I very quickly connected it to the 1980s satanic panic. It’s not really that different because people were saying Ozzy Osbourne, Jason Voorhees (of ‘Friday the 13th’), and the Smurfs were going to turn your kids into satanists and kill you in your sleep. That didn’t happen. It wasn’t true, but so many people got worked up into such a fervor over it, bad things happened. ... It was smoke without fire,” Kane said. “Disinformation is not new,” Campbell said. “Disinformation will tear a town apart.” Campbell portrays Happy Hollow Police Chief Ben Dandridge. “This guy’s a reasonable cop; he’s a rational person who doesn’t treat the teenagers like they’re idiots. It’s all very refreshing,” he said. “I want to play that guy again. I want cops to be that guy. I’m playing the cop (that) cops need to be. That’s my whole motivation for playing this guy: How would you like cops to be, especially the guy in charge, the chief of police? They’re lucky to have Chief Dandridge.” “It was truly an exciting moment when Bruce signed on,” Goodman said. By the end of the first episode, a supernatural phenomenon happens to Linda Campbell, played by Bowen. “Linda seems like one thing, then you realize she’s bananas. She’s either bananas or she’s possessed. Either way, it’s a complicated thing to play,” Bowen said. “With Julie, you can have your cake and eat it too,” Kane said. “She’s this fun, quirky mom. ... As the episode goes on, she’s pulled deeper into this thing and crazy stuff starts happening. That final act of the first episode was my favorite moment with her because this announced that this is not Claire Dunphy. We’re not doing that again; we’re pushing her as a performer. “Julie was so excited about doing stunts. She told us on many occasions she’s very sturdy and can take it. The same goes for Bruce and for Anna. We didn’t ask anyone to give us a flavor of the thing they did before. We cast people we loved so much (in their famous projects) that we wanted to give them the opportunity to do the exact opposite.” Added Bowen: “I got this script and was like, ‘Oh great. She’s a mom. How fun.’ I love moms. I’m a mom, but I felt this was not worth flying out of town to Georgia and being away from my kids. Then I got to the end of the pilot and was like, ‘She’s crazy!’ Is she possessed? There’s a lot more questions. It’s fun to just stretch again and do things I haven’t done in a while, which I found really exciting.” Kane said he felt lucky Bowen signed on at the beginning. “She was the first adult actor to sign on. That gave us such credibility to have a two-time Emmy-winning actor leading this show. Suddenly, it goes from this script from a relatively unknown writer into the new Julie Bowen show,” he said. It was the quality of the writing that attracted Camp, Bowen and Campbell to “Hysteria!” “I loved the script; it was incredibly well-written. It was immersed in the time period. It was such a good coming-of-age story, too — the feeling of being in high school again, being in the 1980s,” Camp said. “I talked to Matt who said my character (Tracy) was incredibly pivotal to the series and we’ll learn about why she is the way she is. So I was like, ‘I’d love to do this!’” For Campbell, the writing is everything. “A lot of times, I’ll get a script that could make the words interchangeable with every other character because the writing is very bland and just doesn’t have the detail you need. This was different. Every character was pretty distinct and pretty well-drawn,” he said. “It’s quality. It’s not a (expletive) show. It’s a real show that’s playing around with interesting themes. A lot of it is still relevant to this day.” “Hysteria!” has other Michigan connections, including University of Michigan alumnus Jonathan Goldstein (“Spider-Man: Homecoming”) and Dondero High School alumnus Jordan Vogt-Roberts (“Kong: Skull Island”), who both serve as executive producers. Kane explained why he set “Hysteria!” in Michigan. “You write what you know. I grew up in Ypsilanti, so that had a lot to do with it. More importantly, when you’re in a small town in the Midwest — somewhere like Michigan — these things don’t ever happen and word spreads fast and paranoia spreads quickly and (everything’s) blown out of proportion and takes up a lot of people’s minds,” he said. “Whether or not something is real doesn’t matter. It doesn’t matter if there are people willing to believe it does and willing it into the world. What does it matter if it’s objectively real or living rent-free in someone’s head?”Heron Therapeutics Announces Corporate Headquarters Relocation to Cary, North CarolinaNone

Drones for commercial and recreational use have grown rapidly in popularity, despite restrictions on who can operate them and where they can be flown. No-fly zones are enforced around airports, military installations, nuclear plants, certain landmarks including the Statue of Liberty, and sports stadiums during games. Not everybody follows the rules. Sightings at airports have shut down flights in a few instances. Reported sightings of what appear to be drones flying over New Jersey at night in recent weeks have created anxiety among some residents, in part because it is not clear who is operating them or why. Some state and local officials have called for stricter rules to govern drones. After receiving reports of drone activity last month near Morris County, New Jersey, the Federal Aviation Administration issued temporary bans on drone flights over a golf course in Bedminster , New Jersey, that is owned by President-elect Donald Trump, and over Picatinny Arsenal Military Base . The FAA says the bans are in response to requests from “federal security partners.” The FAA is responsible for the regulations governing their use , and Congress has written some requirements into law. With a 2018 law, the Preventing Emerging Threats Act, Congress gave certain agencies in the Homeland Security and Justice departments authority to counter threats from unmanned aircraft to protect the safety of certain facilities. New drones must be outfitted with equipment allowing law enforcement to identify the operator, and Congress gave the agencies the power to detect and take down unmanned aircraft that they consider dangerous. The law spells out where the counter-drone measures can be used, including “national special security events” such as presidential inaugurations and other large gatherings of people. To get a “remote pilot certificate,” you must be at least 16 years old, be proficient in English, pass an aeronautics exam, and not suffer from a ”mental condition that would interfere with the safe operation of a small unmanned aircraft system.” Story continues below video Yes, but the FAA imposes restrictions on nighttime operations. Most drones are not allowed to fly at night unless they are equipped with anti-collision lights that are visible for at least 3 miles (4.8 kilometers). Over the past decade, pilots have reported hundreds of close calls between drones and airplanes including airline jets. In some cases, airplane pilots have had to take evasive action to avoid collisions. Drones buzzing over a runway caused flights to be stopped at London’s Gatwick Airport during the Christmas travel rush in 2018 and again in May 2023 . Police dismissed the idea of shooting down the drones, fearing that stray bullets could kill someone. Advances in drone technology have made it harder for law enforcement to find rogue drone operators — bigger drones in particular have more range and power. Some state and local officials in New Jersey are calling for stronger restrictions because of the recent sightings, and that has the drone industry worried. Scott Shtofman, director of government affairs at the Association for Uncrewed Vehicle Systems International, said putting more limits on drones could have a “chilling effect” on “a growing economic engine for the United States.” “We would definitely oppose anything that is blindly pushing for new regulation of what are right now legal drone operations,” he said. AirSight, a company that sells software against “drone threats,” says more than 20 states have enacted laws against privacy invasion by drones, including Peeping Toms. Will Austin, president of Warren County Community College in New Jersey, and founder of its drone program, says it's up to users to reduce public concern about the machines. He said operators must explain why they are flying when confronted by people worried about privacy or safety. “It's a brand new technology that's not really understood real well, so it will raise fear and anxiety in a lot of people,” Austin said. “We want to be good professional aviators and alleviate that.” Associated Press reporter Rebecca Santana in Washington, D.C., contributed.Neel Kamal writes about sustainable agriculture, environment, climate change for The Times of India.

Arcadium Lithium Announces Shareholder Approval of Proposed Rio Tinto Transaction and Provides Regulatory UpdateOn Christopher and Hudson in the West Village, two women named Millie and Mary sit in a red-and-green shed. Their door is wide open despite the freezing temperatures—mostly so anyone can poke their head in but also so they can write your Christmas wish on the front of it in blue Sharpie. (Current wishes include love, success, and Taylor Swift tickets.) But don’t get used to them. They’re only here for five weeks and for one reason: to sell Christmas trees. Millie and Mary, who asked to be identified only by first names, drove down from Quebec, Canada, right after Thanksgiving. A tree farm company provided them with firs, their shed, and a baler. (Which, as it turns out, can be used more for just trees: Last night, two drunk men paid them $20 to be netted themselves.) Over the first few days, they decorated the stand, painting their shed and carving wooden ornaments that Millie tells me cost, well, whatever: “We tell people it’s in between a dollar and a million,” she says. Then she reveals her Christmas wish: “We’re hoping for a million,” she adds, laughing. They also decorate themselves: Mary has pink gems across her teeth and often accessorizes with a colorful balaclava. Both try to wear either red or green each day, under pairs of Carhartt overalls. (Carhartt has recently seen a surge in popularity with celebrities —but its designs were originally conceived for railroad workers in the Gilded Age.) “We like having colorful items that we can mix and match to do a nice look,” she says. On Christmas Eve, their job is done. That night, they’ll go do karaoke with some other tree sellers around their age, whom they met at 32nd and Third. “One of them is my new lover too,” Mollie says, full of joy. “We have lovers that are Christmas tree sellers!” In 1851, a Catskills woodsman named Mark Carr recognized the growing popularity of Christmas trees in the United States; they had been introduced by German immigrants decades prior. So he loaded up his cart, parked it on the corner of Greenwich and Vesey streets, and sold his so-called mountain oddities to citizens of New York City. (The rent he paid to do so? $1.) By 1871, Christmas had been declared a national holiday, and Carr was just one of many tree salesmen in town. Over the next 150 years, New York went from a trading port to a global metropolis—but the process of buying a Christmas tree stayed almost exactly the same. You don’t need any permits or special certificates from the state to sell trees. You just need permission from the landlord who owns the building you operate in front of. So every year in late November, hundreds of sellers still collect their mountain oddities of balsam and Fraser firs to quite literally set up shop in New York City...just like Carr did centuries ago. They don’t have much time to make their money. Like milk, their product has a strict sell-by date: December 24. Some operators and their employees are native New Yorkers. But many hail from tree-lined lands north: Vermont, New Hampshire, or Quebec. Since renting an apartment isn’t logistically or financially feasible, they sleep in their vans or makeshift bunk beds they’ve built in their sheds. Several workers I spoke to seem to enjoy what’s colloquially known as van life: living in a motor vehicle full time or part-time. (Mollie and Mary, for example, met while hitchhiking.) Others use the income to support a passion. “I sell Christmas trees so I can paint when I get home,” says Gabe Tempesta, as he gestures toward an oil painting that rests against a chain-link fence. Young children run around him as he pulls out balsam firs to show their parents, later brushing the needles off his green wool sweater and vintage Carhartt pants. (He buys them on eBay: Carhartt in the ’90s, he tells me, was just made better.) Tempesta has done this job for around 13 years. At first, he was just helping the owner of a Vermont Christmas tree farm sell his stock. But now the owner is retiring. Tempesta is taking over his lots and growing his own trees up north. Once his trees reach maturity—in 8 to 10 years—he’ll be a one-stop tree shop. Tempesta is just one of many tree salesmen who have been in New York for a decade or more. Vermont-based entrepreneur Billy Romp and his family have had a stand on Jane Street and Eighth Avenue for 35 years. They’re now beloved New York holiday figures: In 1998, Romp published a memoir, Christmas on Jane Street , and went on Good Morning America to promote it. Then there’s Greg Walsh. On a 30-degree December Saturday, I stand outside his trailer at the Greenwood Park Beer Garden as he asks me what Santa hat I prefer. It’s not really a question because within half a second he answers it himself: He’s going to wear his old one, with the frayed rim and ragged pom-pom. The hat’s got character, as does Walsh, who has spent much of his life embodying a real-life Santa Claus who sells balsams, Frasers, Nordmanns, and nobles (the Cadillac of Christmas trees, according to Walsh). Born and raised in Woodside, Queens, he got into the tree trade on a whim: One summer day, when he was 18, he noticed a fruit seller outside St. Patrick’s Cathedral in Manhattan. He asked him how he got the job. The stall attendant introduced him to his boss, who hired him on the spot. Soon enough they became partners—and switched to selling Christmas trees when demand for fruit cooled in the colder months. Thirty-five years later, he runs seven locations around the city (six in Brooklyn, one in Manhattan) under the banner of Greg’s Trees. On the night I visit, he’s having a tree-lighting ceremony for anyone and everyone who stops by. There’s a wreath-making station, plenty of candy, and a giant throne where kids can take pictures with Santa. In past years, that was Walsh. But not this time. He’s currently going through chemotherapy and feared his beard wouldn’t be long enough. So a friend will play the big man instead, and he’ll attend in his Santa hat, red sweatshirt, and New York Jets joggers. (His dental assistant kindly volunteered to be an elf.) We ask him to sit on the throne for a portrait. Walsh obliges, telling us a colorful story about how he acquired it from the Brooklyn Navy Yard. Afterward, I wish him luck with his treatment. “Life is short for all of us,” he says. Then he turns into his trees, bellowing a hearty “ho ho ho” as he goes.
