Syrian government forces withdraw from central city of Homs as insurgent offensive accelerates BEIRUT (AP) — A Syrian opposition war monitor and a pro-government media outlet say government forces have withdrawn from much of the central city of Homs. The pro-government Sham FM reported that government forces took positions outside Syria’s third-largest city, without elaborating. Rami Abdurrahman who heads the Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, said Syrian troops and members of different security agencies have withdrawn from the city, adding that rebels have entered parts of it. Losing Homs is a potentially crippling blow for Syria’s embattled leader, Bashar Assad. An archbishop's knock formally restores Notre Dame to life as winds howl and heads of state look on PARIS (AP) — France’s iconic Notre Dame Cathedral has formally reopened its doors for the first time since a devastating fire nearly destroyed the 861-year-old landmark in 2019. The five-year restoration is widely seen as a boost for French President Emmanuel Macron, who championed the ambitious timeline, and brings a welcome respite from his domestic political woes. World leaders, dignitaries, and worshippers gathered on Saturday evening for the celebrations under the cathedral's soaring arches. The celebration was attended by 1,500 dignitaries, including President-elect Donald Trump, Britain’s Prince William, and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. For Catholics, Notre Dame’s rector said the cathedral “carries the enveloping presence of the Virgin Mary, a maternal and embracing presence.′′ Trump is welcomed by Macron to Paris with presidential pomp and joined by Zelenskyy for their talks PARIS (AP) — French President Emmanuel Macron has welcomed Donald Trump to Paris with a full dose of presidential pomp. And they held a hastically-arranged meeting with Ukraine’s Volodymyr Zelenskyy on a day that's mixing pageantry with attention to pressing global problems. The president-elect's visit to France is part of a global a celebration of the reopening of Notre Dame Cathedral five years after a devastating fire. Macron and other European leaders are trying to win Trump’s favor and persuade him to maintain support for Ukraine in its defense against Russia’s invasion. Trump isn't back in office but he's already pushing his agenda and negotiating with world leaders NEW YORK (AP) — Donald Trump is making threats, traveling abroad, and negotiating with world leaders. He has more than a month-and-a-half to go before he’s sworn in for a second term. But the president-elect is already moving aggressively to not only fill his Cabinet and outline policy goals, but also to try to achieve his priorities. In recent days, Trump has threatened to impose a 25% tariff on goods from Canada and Mexico, two of the country’s largest trading partners. That led to emergency calls and a visit. And he's warned of “ALL HELL TO PAY” if Hamas doesn't release the hostages still being held captive in Gaza. South Korea's president avoids an impeachment attempt over short-lived martial law SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — South Korea’s embattled President Yoon Suk Yeol has avoided an opposition-led attempt to impeach him over his short-lived imposition of martial law. Most of Yoon's ruling party lawmakers boycotted a parliamentary vote Saturday to deny a two-thirds majority needed to suspend his presidential powers. The scrapping of the motion is expected to intensify protests calling for Yoon’s ouster and deepen political chaos in South Korea. A survey suggests a majority of South Koreans support the president’s impeachment. Yoon’s martial law declaration drew criticism from his own ruling conservative People Power Party. But the party also apparently fears losing the presidency to liberals. Days after gunman killed UnitedHealthcare's CEO, police push to ID him and FBI offers reward NEW YORK (AP) — Nearly four days after the shooting of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, police still do not know the gunman’s name or whereabouts or have a motive for the killing. But they have made some progress in their investigation into Wednesday's killing of the leader of the largest U.S. health insurer, including that the gunman likely left New York City on a bus soon after fleeing the scene. The also found that the gunman left something behind: a backpack that was discovered in Central Park. Police are working with the FBI, which on Friday night announced a $50,000 reward for information leading to an arrest and conviction. UnitedHealthcare CEO's shooting opens a door for many to vent frustrations over insurance The fatal shooting of UnitedHealthcare's CEO has opened the door for many people to vent their frustrations and anger over the insurance industry. The feelings of exasperation, anger, resentment, and helplessness toward insurers aren’t new. But the shooting and the headlines around it have unleashed a new wave of patients sharing such sentiments and personal stories of interactions with insurance companies. Conversations at dinner tables, office water coolers, social gatherings and on social media have pivoted to the topic. Many say they hope the new amplified voices can bring about change for companies often accused of valuing profits over people. 2 Pearl Harbor survivors, ages 104 and 102, return to Hawaii to honor those killed in 1941 attack PEARL HARBOR, Hawaii (AP) — The bombing of Pearl Harbor 83 years ago launched the United States into World War II. Two survivors returned to the Hawaii military base on Saturday for a remembrance ceremony on the attack's anniversary. Both are over 100 years old. They joined active-duty troops, veterans and members of the public for an observance hosted by the Navy and the National Park Service. A third survivor was planning to join them but had to cancel due to health issues. The bombing killed more than 2,300 U.S. servicemen. An explosion destroys an apartment block in a Dutch city, killing at least 3 and injuring others THE HAGUE, Netherlands (AP) — An explosion and fire has rocked a neighborhood in the Dutch city of The Hague, killing three people and injuring other people and destroying several apartments. The cause of the disaster is unclear. Emergency authorities said four people were rescued from the rubble and taken to the hospital. The mayor said rescuers were no longer looking for survivors but for eventual bodies, but could not specify how many people might still be unaccounted for. Residents of the northeastern neighborhood of Mariahoeve in The Hague heard a huge bang and screams before dawn. Dutch authorities have deployed a specialized urban search and rescue team to find victims. How 'Mufasa' rose with Aaron Pierre and Blue Ivy's voices along with new Lin-Manuel Miranda music SAN DIEGO (AP) — When Aaron Pierre was cast as Mufasa, the weight of following in the late James Earl Jones’ legendary footsteps was enough to rattle any actor. But instead of letting the pressure roar too loudly, he harnessed his nerves to breathe fresh life into his young lion character. Pierre found parallels between himself and his character while filming his leading role in “Mufasa: The Lion King,” which opens in theaters Dec. 20. He took the reigns as the new voice of Mufasa after Jones played the iconic King Mufasa in both the 1994 and 2019 versions of Disney’s “The Lion King.” The prequel offers a fresh exploration into Mufasa’s origin story.
SANTA CLARA — APIs are one of the most powerful tools for driving business innovation, but without a coherent , organizations risk fragmented systems, slower time-to-market and missed opportunities for scalability and collaboration. These were the Ambassador team took away from , held last month in Santa Clara, Calif. A strong API strategy not only ensures technical agility but also aligns with business goals, driving efficiency, enhancing customer experiences and creating a competitive edge in a rapidly evolving tech landscape. However, 46% of technology leaders report that they need stronger alignment between IT and line-of-business on how to report and track API success, as described in . While many aspects of API technology remain consistent — such as the challenges that people and organizations face — other aspects have evolved alongside innovations that drive more automation, better security, faster delivery and easier collaboration. Following are four lessons we took away from API World about how improving your process can lead to new results for your team and help improve the business’ bottom line. 1. Protect Your Inner Developer Loop In the realm of API development, a seamless workflow is paramount. Safeguarding your team’s inner developer loop is key for reducing interruptions and context shifts to maximize your coding efficiency. According to McKinsey, technology leaders should aim to development activities (build, code, test) 70% of the time, leaving 30% for the high collaboration “outer loop” activities (deploy, verify, release). By integrating debugging and testing directly into your integrated development environment (IDE), you can sidestep the cumbersome back-and-forth that often hinders development. This way, you can maintain your focus on coding without the disruption of juggling multiple tools and environments. A major benefit of a protected is catching errors earlier through unit testing throughout the coding process. By running unit tests as they code, developers are better poised to identify and fix issues right away. This not only saves time but also ensures that the codebase remains more robust and error-free throughout the development life cycle. in API development technology are further empowering developers with the ability to conduct more advanced, production-like testing locally. Through integrated access to a hosted production-like test environment, developers can take their unit testing further than ever before while staying in the “inner loop.” This advancement reduces departmental friction and increases delivery speed and quality. The ability to foster an instant feedback loop is invaluable for iterative development, and helps leaders make informed decisions on the fly. An instant testing environment that is part of a composable development solution can also improve collaboration, increasing the time spent on higher-value activities like coding and testing. By providing a space where individuals can more effectively test and validate their work, you can create a more cohesive team. This approach can help speed up development and ensure that everyone is working towards the same goals. Implementing these strategies and tools can significantly streamline your API development process in ways that developers will be motivated to adopt. From more efficient coding and friction-free testing to robust error detection and more seamless collaboration, protecting your developers’ ability to stay focused is key to driving innovation and business value. By improving this important part of the development process, you can make API development faster, cheaper and better for your bottom line. 2. Use Standards That Work and Let AI Help In the whirlwind of the digital age, we’re all racing to innovate and outpace the rest. Speaking of rest, it’s worth noting that RESTful APIs remain the industry standard, and they’re working. used by 85% of API developers, and it shows how to create well-defined, easy-to-understand and manageable APIs. By its side, the popular language stands as a stalwart ally in the quest to build APIs of strength and efficiency. Together, they promise to speed development and smooth collaboration between different teams and stakeholders. This is all in the name of scalable and high-performance APIs. Let’s not forget the game-changer that is AI. AI-powered tools are changing how your developer and platform teams work by instantly generating specs and code, automating repetitive tasks and even suggesting improvements. This AI-assisted approach not only saves development time but also elevates the quality and consistency of delivery and, ultimately, the pace of innovation. AI is driving a new wave of API proliferation, as APIs are typically needed to realize AI’s benefits. As , senior engineer at , said in : The best thing you can do is figure out how to safely and intentionally to automate your developers’ manual tasks ... or risk falling behind. 3. Drive Business Value With Each API (and Prove It With Data) APIs have become a key part of modern business strategy and are often the unsung heroes of reducing costs, automating processes and harmonizing systems to cut through operational complexities. According to , field CTO and one of the authors of “Unbundling the Enterprise,” a technology strategy that leverages API development enables companies to gain optionality, which is a hugely significant advantage in a volatile business climate. This flexibility allows businesses to pivot quickly and capitalize on new opportunities as they arise, he said in . The result? Streamlined workflows, fewer errors and significant savings (music to a CTO’s ear). This isn’t just about saving money; it’s about getting ahead of the game and bringing your innovations to market faster than the competition. Proving the business value of APIs requires tracking data and measuring their impact. However, data access and API discoverability are still a huge pain point for many tech teams. product manager noted in : Data that measures API usage, revenue from API-enabled services and operational cost savings provide concrete evidence of the benefits of your APIs. By continuously monitoring these metrics and sharing them widely, businesses can make data-driven decisions to improve their API strategy. This approach ensures that each API not only drives business value but also contributes to the organization’s overall success and growth. 4. Testing: Shift Left, Test Right The strategic importance of comprehensive API testing cannot be overstated. early and often within the development life cycle, a concept known as shift left” ensures that APIs are not only functional but also reliable and resilient. Improving testing within the development process makes it easier for developers to debug and catch problems early on, which leads to a more efficient and productive workflow. One of the main benefits of moving left is that you can use real-world data and test cases to fully check API functionality. By using tools that work well with IDEs, developers stay working in the same place. This not only improves the quality of the code but also builds confidence in the reliability of the APIs, driving better business outcomes. Moreover, “testing right” is about running tests in a dedicated This is key to catching issues that only appear in real-world situations. Simulating production conditions can uncover hidden bugs, performance bottlenecks and security vulnerabilities that might otherwise go unnoticed. This way, the APIs are ready to be used and can handle the needs of real users after going through these . By shifting left and testing right, developers can achieve a quicker time to market, greater quality, fewer bugs and an improved developer experience overall — meaning dev teams make it to production faster, and fewer developers are asking what’s causing the slow down. Tools like already have this philosophy in place to meet testing needs. Understand Devs, Profit More In the end, our learnings from API World extend far beyond the words of a few wise technology leaders. It’s important for the world’s CIOs, CTOs and VPs to sometimes dig down deep into the nitty gritty as well; it impacts your time to market and the health of your developer team.

The 'perverse' reason we've given up on California and are now fleeing to the other side of the world
PARIS (AP) — Paris Saint-Germain failed to score in Ligue 1 for the first time this season as the reigning champion was denied by outstanding goalkeeping from Auxerre's Donovan Léon in a 0-0 draw on Friday. Léon's string of superb saves thwarted PSG’s attacking stars. After a fairly even first 45 minutes, PSG camped in the Auxerre half but could not find a way past León, who made memorable stops from Gonçalo Ramos, Achraf Hakimi, Kang-In Lee, Désiré Nonka-Maho and Randal Kolo Muani. Vitinha saw one curling shot come back off the bar. PSG had 25 shots to Auxerre’s six and 15 corners to Auxerre’s three but the home side still could have stolen all three points, as PSG keeper Gianluigi Donnarumma had to make a smart stop from Hamed Traorè. PSG remained eight points clear on top of Ligue 1. Auxerre was eighth. Canadian striker Jonathan David scored two and made another as Lille brushed past Brest 3-1 to extend its unbeaten run to 10 games in Ligue 1. The last time Lille lost to Brest at home was in 1989 and that long run never looked likely to fall as David turned in a man-of-the-match performance at Stade Pierre-Mauroy. He put Lille ahead from the penalty spot after nine minutes and he got away from his marker and crossed for Hákon Haraladsson to clip home a second just before halftime. Ludovic Ajorque got one back for Brest early in the second half but David restored Lille’s two-goal cushion when he pounced on a loose ball to slide home his team’s third. David’s goals took his season total to 17 in 23 games. They were his 10th and 11th in the league and lift him to the top of the Ligue 1 goal-scoring chart. Marseille was second ahead of Lille and Monaco on goal difference. AP soccer: https://apnews.com/hub/soccer
Jimmy Carter, who served one term as the 39th U.S. President, died on Dec. 29. He was 100. Statements were issued Sunday evening by members of New Hampshire Congressional delegation, including U.S. Sen. Jeanne Shaheen and U.S. Congressman Chris Pappas. Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter Jr.), 39th President of the United States, was born October 1, 1924, in the small farming town of Plains, Georgia, and grew up in the nearby community of Archery. His father, James Earl Carter Sr., was a farmer and businessman; his mother, Lillian Gordy Carter, a registered nurse. He was educated in the public school of Plains, attended Georgia Southwestern College and the Georgia Institute of Technology, and received a B.S. degree from the United States Naval Academy in 1946. In the Navy he became a submariner, serving in both the Atlantic and Pacific fleets and rising to the rank of lieutenant. Chosen by Admiral Hyman Rickover for the nuclear submarine program, he was assigned to Schenectady, New York, where he took graduate work at Union College in reactor technology and nuclear physics and served as senior officer of the pre-commissioning crew of the Seawolf , the second nuclear submarine. On July 7, 1946, he married Rosalynn Smith of Plains. When his father died in 1953, he resigned his naval commission and returned with his family to Georgia. He took over the Carter farms, and he and Rosalynn operated Carter’s Warehouse, a general-purpose seed and farm supply company in Plains. He quickly became a leader of the community, serving on county boards supervising education, the hospital authority, and the library. In 1962 he won election to the Georgia Senate. He lost his first gubernatorial campaign in 1966, but won the next election, becoming Georgia’s 76th governor on January 12, 1971. He was the Democratic National Committee campaign chairman for the 1974 congressional and gubernatorial elections. On December 12, 1974, he announced his candidacy for president of the United States. He won his party’s nomination on the first ballot at the 1976 Democratic National Convention, and was elected president on November 2, 1976. Jimmy Carter served as president from January 20, 1977 to January 20, 1981. Significant foreign policy accomplishments of his administration included the Panama Canal treaties, the Camp David Accords, the treaty of peace between Egypt and Israel, the SALT II treaty with the Soviet Union, and the establishment of U.S. diplomatic relations with the People’s Republic of China. He championed human rights throughout the world. On the domestic side, the administration’s achievements included a comprehensive energy program conducted by a new Department of Energy; deregulation in energy, transportation, communications, and finance; major educational programs under a new Department of Education; and major environmental protection legislation, including the Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act. In 1982, he became University Distinguished Professor at Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia, and founded The Carter Center. Actively guided by President Carter, the nonpartisan and nonprofit Center addresses national and international issues of public policy. Carter Center staff and associates join with President Carter in efforts to resolve conflict, promote democracy, protect human rights, and prevent disease and other afflictions. The Center has spearheaded the international effort to eradicate Guinea worm disease, which is poised to be the second human disease in history to be eradicated. The permanent facilities of The Carter Presidential Center were dedicated in October 1986, and include the Jimmy Carter Library and Museum, administered by the National Archives . Also open to visitors is the Jimmy Carter National Historic Site in Plains, administered by the National Park Service. According to his official White House biography , Carter could point to a number of achievements in domestic affairs. He dealt with the energy shortage by establishing a national energy policy and by decontrolling domestic petroleum prices to stimulate production. He prompted Government efficiency through civil service reform and proceeded with deregulation of the trucking and airline industries. He sought to improve the environment. His expansion of the national park system included protection of 103 million acres of Alaskan lands. To increase human and social services, he created the Department of Education, bolstered the Social Security system, and appointed record numbers of women, blacks, and Hispanics to Government jobs. In foreign affairs, Carter set his own style. His championing of human rights was coldly received by the Soviet Union and some other nations. In the Middle East, through the Camp David agreement of 1978, he helped bring amity between Egypt and Israel. He succeeded in obtaining ratification of the Panama Canal treaties. Building upon the work of predecessors, he established full diplomatic relations with the People’s Republic of China and completed negotiation of the SALT II nuclear limitation treaty with the Soviet Union. There were serious setbacks, however. The Soviet invasion of Afghanistan caused the suspension of plans for ratification of the SALT II pact. The seizure as hostages of the U. S. embassy staff in Iran dominated the news during the last 14 months of the administration. The consequences of Iran’s holding Americans captive, together with continuing inflation at home, contributed to Carter’s defeat in 1980. Even then, he continued the difficult negotiations over the hostages. Iran finally released the 52 Americans the same day Carter left office. The Carters have three sons, one daughter, nine grandsons (one deceased), three granddaughters, five great-grandsons, and eight great-granddaughters. On December 10, 2002, the Norwegian Nobel Committee awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for 2002 to Mr. Carter “for his decades of untiring effort to find peaceful solutions to international conflicts, to advance democracy and human rights, and to promote economic and social development.” Information included from jimmycarterlibrary.gov and whitehouse.gov Subscribe to receive your free daily eNews + a note from the Ink Link publisher .
