On the corner of Fort Lane and Gentile Street, beside an aging strip mall with a drugstore, a five-and-dime and a Safeway, was an empty lot—empty except for the yellow, knee-high grass typical of August summers in my hometown. The whole field smelled drier than a canvas sack of wheat; some days the heat of the sun by itself was enough to burn it up. And there, along the trail, my old Huffster soared, leaning and squeaking all the way, with dust flying from its deflated tires. My best friend Tracy and I had been stress-testing our pedal bikes. His was a sparkling red Schwinn with a white stripe down the side, chrome fenders and all; mine was a weary old street bike Santa had picked up at the five-and-dime. It had started as a blue-and-yellow Huffy road bike with a banana seat, and in 1984, vintage road bikes weren’t super cool. BMX bikes were cool. So my 1977 Huffy had been rattle-can painted flat white. It now sported an orange saddle seat from my brother’s discarded ten-speed. The tires were balding and weather cracked, not BMX dirt-track style—road style. It was a Franken-bike. And it had spent way too many frigid winters leaning against the side of our trailer house.Shatel: Nebraska is going to a bowl game again — and here are some dream matchups

Peter Stano informed IRNA’s correspondent in London on Monday that the meeting between Mora and Takht Ravanchi will be held on Thursday in Geneva, Switzerland. According to the announced schedule, Takht Ravanchi will then meet with representatives of three European countries, Britain, France, and Germany on Friday. Iran’s Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmail Baghaei has also informed that the meeting will be held at the level of deputy ministers. Referring to Iran’s principled policy of interacting and cooperating with other countries based on dignity, wisdom, and expediency, Baghaei described the upcoming talks with the three European countries as a continuation of meetings held on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly in New York. In this round of talks, a range of regional and international issues and topics will be discussed and exchanged, including Palestine and Lebanon, as well as the nuclear issue, he added. 4399USC women move to No. 4 in AP poll as top three unchanged

Inside Scottish Premiership club’s new £80m stadium plans hit by major setbacksBy CLAIRE RUSH President-elect Donald Trump has once again suggested he wants to revert the name of North America’s tallest mountain — Alaska’s Denali — to Mount McKinley, wading into a sensitive and decades-old conflict about what the peak should be called.

For the agents removing immigrants, it’s a painstaking process Former President Barack Obama changed the official name to Denali in 2015 to reflect the traditions of Alaska Natives as well as the preference of many Alaska residents. The federal government in recent years has endeavored to change place-names considered disrespectful to Native people. “Denali” is an Athabascan word meaning “the high one” or “the great one.” A prospector in 1896 dubbed the peak “Mount McKinley” after President William McKinley, who had never been to Alaska. That name was formally recognized by the U.S. government until Obama changed it over opposition from lawmakers in McKinley’s home state of Ohio. Trump suggested in 2016 that he might undo Obama’s action, but he dropped that notion after Alaska’s senators objected. He raised it again during a rally in Phoenix on Sunday. “McKinley was a very good, maybe a great president,” Trump said Sunday. “They took his name off Mount McKinley, right? That’s what they do to people.” Once again, Trump’s suggestion drew quick opposition within Alaska. “Uh. Nope. It’s Denali,” Democratic state Sen. Scott Kawasaki posted on the social platform X Sunday night. Republican Sen. Lisa Murkowski , who for years pushed for legislation to change the name to Denali, conveyed a similar sentiment in a post of her own. “There is only one name worthy of North America’s tallest mountain: Denali — the Great One,” Murkowski wrote on X. Various tribes of Athabascan people have lived in the shadow of the 20,310-foot (6,190-meter) mountain for thousands of years. McKinley, a Republican native of Ohio who served as the 25th president, was assassinated early in his second term in 1901 in Buffalo, New York. Alaska and Ohio have been at odds over the name since at least the 1970s. Alaska had a standing request to change the name since 1975, when the legislature passed a resolution and then-Gov. Jay Hammond appealed to the federal government. Known for its majestic views, the mountain is dotted with glaciers and covered at the top with snow year-round, with powerful winds that make it difficult for the adventurous few who seek to climb it.

The Trojans moved up three spots in the AP Top 25 after beating the then-No. 4 Huskies 72-70 on Saturday night in a rematch of last season's Elite Eight game that UConn won.

This was the Trojans' first win ever over UConn. "This is a really significant win, and it's a really significant win because of the stature of UConn's program and what Geno Auriemma has done for our sport," USC coach Lindsay Gottlieb said. "It doesn't matter to me that they haven't won a championship in a couple years. There's still a way that they prepare, a way that they play, that makes you better, and it made us better."

CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Chase Artopoeus threw two touchdown passes and ran for a score to lead Chattanooga to a 24-17 victory over Austin Peay in a nonconference regular-season finale on Saturday. Chattanooga (7-5) jumped out to a 10-0 first-quarter lead on Jude Kelley's 28-yard field goal and Artopoeus' 9-yard touchdown toss to Javin Whatley with 42 seconds left. The score came five plays after Alex Mitchell intercepted a pass from Austin Smith, giving the Mocs the ball at the Governors' 26-yard line. Austin Peay answered in the second quarter with help from a Chattanooga turnover. Ellis Ellis Jr. picked off Artopoeus and the Governors took over at the Mocs' 30. Smith completed three straight passes — the last one covering 4 yards to Jaden Barnes to get Austin Peay within three points. Carson Smith followed with a 35-yard field goal to tie it at 10. Chattanooga regained the lead with 4:01 left in the third quarter when Artopoeus capped a nine-play drive with a 3-yard touchdown run. Smith had a 23-yard touchdown run to get Austin Peay within seven with 8:08 left in the game. The Governors drove to the Mocs' 30, but Smith's fourth-down pass fell incomplete with 41 seconds to go. Artopoeus completed 15 of 21 passes for 161 yards for Chattanooga. He had a 7-yard scoring toss to John McIntyre to put the Mocs up 24-10 early in the final quarter. Smith finished with 192 yards on 21-for-36 passing for Austin Peay, which finishes its first season under head coach Jeff Faris with a 4-8 record. Rusty Wright became the first Chattanooga coach to finish .500 or better in each of his first six seasons. Chattanooga snapped Austin Peay's nine-game win streak with a 24-21 victory on the road to close out the regular season last year. Get poll alerts and updates on the AP Top 25 throughout the season.

In the 2001-02 season, Monte Miron was a co-owner, president and general manager of the Tulsa Crude in the United States Hockey League. Monte Miron, a 1970 Edison graduate, was a seventh-round draft choice by the NHL's Toronto Maple Leafs in 1972. After three seasons as a defenseman with Clarkson University, he played pro hockey from 1974-78 with the Tulsa Oilers, Greensboro Generals, Amarillo Wranglers, Albuquerque Chaparrals, Baltimore Clippers and Phoenix Roadrunners.

What a year for the People's Party in 2024. The orangemen are black and blue after two successive political defeats. But that should be treated as good news for them as the two losses gave them a crucial lesson. The party lost a poll in Udon Thani on Nov 25. Its candidate, Kanisorn Khurirang, gained 268,675 votes in the election for the provincial administration organisation president in the northeastern province. But that was not enough for the win as Sarawut Pethpanomporn, who ran under the Pheu Thai banner, came first with 327,487 votes. The result was sweet redemption for Mr Sarawut after he was stunned by Nattapong Pipatchaisiri of the People's Party's predecessor, the Move Forward Party, in the general election in May last year, when both fought for the seat in Muang district. Earlier in September, Jadet Jantar of Pheu Thai won the by-election in Phitsanulok with 37,209 votes, some 7,000 more than Nathachanon Chanaburanasak of the People's Party. The by-election took place to replace Padipat Santipada of the then-Move Forward Party after he was one of 11 party executive members banned from politics for threatening the constitutional monarchy, under a ruling of the Constitutional Court. Pheu Thai should be happy with the results, and influencer ex-PM Thaksin Shinawatra has promised to engineer campaigns to keep the momentum going into the next general election. Thaksin admitted at a party meeting in Hua Hin on Nov 14 that Pheu Thai was a bit short as it should have gotten more MPs in the national poll last year. It bagged 141 seats in the contest on May 14 last year, while the People's Party received three more. Although the People's Party suffered the latest losses in Udon Thani and Phitsanulok this year, the defeats were a blessing in disguise for the orangemen. They knew by now what they would encounter when a new general election came. And it can be any time, depending on the popularity of Pheu Thai and the unity of the coalition government. In the general election last year, the now-defunct Move Forward rallied against the coup and attempts of then-prime minister Prayut Chan-o-cha to hold on to power, from ordering tanks and soldiers onto the streets to leading the coalition government after the 2019 election. The loss in Udon Thani has shown the People's Party that its next big rival is Thaksin. Pheu Thai alone would find it hard competing with the People's Party, as the results of the previous general election showed Pheu Thai was losing its charm for voters in urban areas and young voters. The ruling party needs a big push from Thaksin to remind his supporters of what he claimed were the glory days when he was the prime minister and that voters would have a future under the administrative guidance of his daughter, Ms Paetongtarn. The earlier defeat in Phitsanulok showed what the People's Party could encounter when a new election is called. The party knew it was not a one-on-one fight with Pheu Thai. In fact, the People's Party candidate was beaten by all coalition parties led by Pheu Thai in an effort to do what was needed to take the seat. The People's Party certainly expects the same scenario in the next election. The coalition parties only fielded a poll candidate in any constituency in which the People's Party won by a large margin last year and was still popular with voters. That would block more orangemen from going to parliament. The next general election is vital for the People's Party. Thanathorn Juangroongruangkit, the main man behind the party, and other strategists laid the political foundations in the previous two national polls. Future Forward won 81 seats in 2019, and Move Forward moved them up to 143 last year. Mr Thanathorn has projected the People Party's popularity would rise to control the majority of the lower house next time, as he admitted that would be the only way to form a government. His projection was made when the presence of Thaksin and the tactic of the parties in the coalition government to keep it at bay were not factored in. The road to parliament for the orangemen is no longer rosy and is not easy. Saritdet Marukatat is a 'Bangkok Post' columnist and former Digital Media News Editor at the paper.
