SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — California, home to some of the largest technology companies in the world, would be the first U.S. state to require mental health warning labels on social media sites if lawmakers pass a bill introduced Monday. The legislation sponsored by state Attorney General Rob Bonta is necessary to bolster safety for children online, supporters say, but industry officials vow to fight the measure and others like it under the First Amendment. Warning labels for social media gained swift bipartisan support from dozens of attorneys general, including Bonta, after U.S. Surgeon General Vivek Murthy called on Congress to establish the requirements earlier this year, saying social media is a contributing factor in the mental health crisis among young people. “These companies know the harmful impact their products can have on our children, and they refuse to take meaningful steps to make them safer,” Bonta said at a news conference Monday. “Time is up. It’s time we stepped in and demanded change.” State officials haven't provided details on the bill, but Bonta said the warning labels could pop up once weekly. Up to 95% of youth ages 13 to 17 say they use a social media platform, and more than a third say that they use social media “almost constantly,” according to 2022 data from the Pew Research Center. Parents’ concerns prompted Australia to pass the world’s first law banning social media for children under 16 in November. “The promise of social media, although real, has turned into a situation where they’re turning our children’s attention into a commodity,” Assemblymember Rebecca Bauer-Kahan, who authored the California bill, said Monday. “The attention economy is using our children and their well-being to make money for these California companies.” Lawmakers instead should focus on online safety education and mental health resources, not warning label bills that are “constitutionally unsound,” said Todd O’Boyle, a vice president of the tech industry policy group Chamber of Progress. “We strongly suspect that the courts will set them aside as compelled speech,” O’Boyle told The Associated Press. Victoria Hinks' 16-year-old daughter, Alexandra, died by suicide four months ago after being “led down dark rabbit holes” on social media that glamorized eating disorders and self-harm. Hinks said the labels would help protect children from companies that turn a blind eye to the harm caused to children’s mental health when they become addicted to social media platforms. “There's not a bone in my body that doubts social media played a role in leading her to that final, irreversible decision,” Hinks said. “This could be your story." Common Sense Media, a sponsor of the bill, said it plans to lobby for similar proposals in other states. California in the past decade has positioned itself as a leader in regulating and fighting the tech industry to bolster online safety for children. The state was the first in 2022 to bar online platforms from using users’ personal information in ways that could harm children. It was one of the states that sued Meta in 2023 and TikTok in October for deliberately designing addictive features that keep kids hooked on their platforms. Gov. Gavin Newsom, a Democrat, also signed several bills in September to help curb the effects of social media on children, including one to prohibit social media platforms from knowingly providing addictive feeds to children without parental consent and one to limit or ban students from using smartphones on school campus. Federal lawmakers have held hearings on child online safety and legislation is in the works to force companies to take reasonable steps to prevent harm. The legislation has the support of X owner Elon Musk and the President-elect’s son, Donald Trump Jr . Still, the last federal law aimed at protecting children online was enacted in 1998, six years before Facebook’s founding.Socialist dictator Nicolás Maduro claimed on Monday that the Venezuelan opposition, which he described as representing “fascist extremism,” wants to stage a civil war in the country similar to that of Syria. Maduro was a longtime ally of former Syrian dictator Bashar Assad and remains close to Assad’s former patrons in Iran and Russia. Assad fled to Russia over the weekend with his family shortly after Sunni jihadists from the al-Qaeda offshoot Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) terrorist organization entered Damascus, marking the end of his over two-decade-old authoritarian regime. His father Hafez Assad ruled the country for about 30 years before his son took over. Maduro, whose regime maintained ideological ties and a shared anti-U.S. stance with Assad’s, made the assertions during an official event commemorating the 200th anniversary of the Battle of Ayacucho . “We are observing the development of painful circumstances for the people of Syria. Now, the shameless [members] of fascist extremism are coming out to ask for a civil war to be waged in Venezuela as well,” Maduro said . “I tell you: Make no mistake, because the people of Venezuela, in perfect fusion, popular-military-police, will triumph through the path of peace. And in Venezuela there will be peace, stability, national union, and the Constitution will prevail,” he continued . According to Maduro, “every time there is an event in the world,” the U.S. “empire” and the Venezuelan opposition want to replicate it in Venezuela. Maduro, and virtually every member of his top brass, have spent the past two decades repeatedly accusing the United States and the Venezuelan opposition of conspiring together to topple the Venezuelan socialist regime. The Venezuelan socialists repeated their accusations in recent months following Maduro’s fraudulent July 28 presidential election, which he insists he “won” for a new six-year presidential term slated to begin on January 10, 2025. The Maduro regime used the conspiracy accusations to justify the arrest of several American citizens who, according to regime officials, were allegedly plotting to assassinate Maduro or carry out other “terrorist” attacks in Venezuela. Neither Maduro, nor any member of his regime, has presented evidence that can substantiate the accusations. The Venezuelan socialist regime maintained close friendly ties with Assad’s now-deposed regime that began in the days of late dictator Hugo Chávez, as both dictators bonded over their shared anti-U.S. sentiments. Chávez and Assad visited each other in 2010. Chávez awarded Assad during his visit to Caracas and gifted him with a replica of the sword of Venezuelan independence hero Simón Bolivar. The late socialist dictator reaffirmed his support of Assad in remarks given to international reporters in October 2012. Maduro continued to reinforce the bilateral relationship after he succeeded Chávez, who died of an undisclosed type of cancer in 2013. Last year, both regimes held talks together with Iran for the construction of an oil refinery in the Syrian town of Homs that, if built, would have yielded profits for all three regimes and, in the case of Iran, would have likely helped fund international terrorism. Last week, days before Assad’s ouster, Maduro held a telephone conversation with Assad in which the Venezuelan dictator pledged his support to Assad’s regime “in the face of terrorist actions” and Syria’s “fight against terrorism and its sponsoring countries.” Assad was ousted over the weekend, fleeing to Russia with his family, where he received political asylum from Russian strongman Vladimir Putin. On Tuesday, the Maduro regime released a statement claiming that it is “closely following” the events in Syria — without making any mention of Assad’s ouster nor his arrival to Russia. Instead, the Venezuelan socialist regime expressed its desire that “this brotherly people may find a path towards the peaceful resolution of their differences, without external interference or the use of violence as a mechanism to address political conflicts.” “Venezuela reiterates its commitment to the preservation of the territorial unity of Syria, as well as the defense of its sovereignty, independence and absolute respect for the values enshrined in the Charter of the United Nations, with special emphasis on the preservation of the civil, political and human rights of its entire population, without distinction of any kind,” the statement read. “This includes the protection and peaceful coexistence of the diverse religious, cultural and ethnic expressions that enrich the identity of that country, Cradle of Civilizations,” the statement continued.

The person spoke Tuesday on condition of anonymity because the agreement, first reported by ESPN, was subject to a successful physical. New York made the move two days after outfielder Juan Soto left for a pending $765 million, 15-year contract with the rival Mets. Fried, who turns 31 in January, gets the fourth-highest contract among pitchers behind the Los Angeles Dodgers' Yoshinobu Yamamoto ($325 million), the Yankees' Gerrit Cole ($324 million) and Washington's Stephen Strasburg ($245 million), who hasn't pitched since 2022 and has retired. Fried broke the mark for lefties set by David Price at $217 million. Fried joins a potential rotation that already included Cole, Carlos Rodon, Luis Gil, Clarke Schmidt, Nestor Cortes and Marcus Stroman. Juan Soto agrees to record $765 million US, 15-year contract with Mets: reports Fried spent his first eight seasons with the Braves, making the All-Star team in 2022 and 2024. He had his first big season in 2019, finishing 17-6 with a 4.02 ERA. He was 7-0 with a 2.25 ERA in the pandemic-shortened 2020 season, finishing fifth in the National League Cy Young Award voting. The three-time Gold Glove winner had his best season in 2022, going 14-7 with a 2.48 ERA. Fried was 8-1 with a 2.55 ERA in an injury-hampered 2023 season, then was 11-10 with a 3.25 ERA over 29 starts this year. The right-hander was the seventh overall pick in the 2012 amateur draft by the San Diego and was traded to the Braves in a six-player deal that sent outfielder Justin Upton to the Padres. Nats win draft lottery; Jays slip to 8th The Washington Nationals will have the No. 1 overall pick in the amateur draft next summer after winning the lottery in a drawing of ping-pong balls at the winter meetings Tuesday. Despite having the fifth-best odds at winning the lottery, the Toronto Blue Jays fell to the No. 8 overall pick. Unlike last year, when the Nationals were ineligible after initially coming out with the top spot, they will get to make the first pick in July in Atlanta, the site of the All-Star Game. Washington was ineligible for a top-six pick last year because the collective bargaining agreement states a team that pays into the revenue-sharing plan cannot have a lottery selection in back-to-back years. The Nationals chose outfielder Dylan Crews with the No. 2 pick in 2023. Here's the 2025 MLB Draft order for the first 10 picks pic.twitter.com/7tScAPx8Gd — @BRWalkoff The Los Angeles Angels have the second pick for next summer. Seattle, Colorado, St. Louis and Pittsburgh round out the top six. A weighted lottery among the 18 teams that failed to make the playoffs this season determined the order of picks for the third year in a row. The Nationals went in with a 10.2 per cent chance, the fourth-best odds, for getting the No. 1 pick. Colorado and Miami, both 100-loss teams, had the best odds at 22.45 per cent, ahead of the Angels at 17.96 per cent. Miami instead ended up with the seventh pick. Former Blue Jays closer Romano joining Phillies on 1-year deal Seattle got the No. 3 overall pick after having a 0.53 per cent chance to get the No. 1 pick, the second-worst odds among 16 eligible teams. The 121-loss Chicago White Sox, who had the most losses of any major league club since 1900, were not eligible for the draft lottery since they had one of the top six picks last year (No. 5) and is a team that pays into the revenue-sharing plan. The CBA also doesn't allow teams that receive money in revenue sharing to have lottery picks three years in a row. That made the Athletics (69-93) ineligible for the lottery — they picked fourth last year after having the No. 6 selection in 2023. Chicago instead got the 10th pick, one spot ahead of Oakland — the highest possible positions for those two teams because of their recent lottery picks. Adams finalizes deal with Giants Willy Adames and San Francisco finalized a $182 million, seven-year contract on Tuesday, providing the Giants with a power-hitting shortstop in the prime of his career. It's a big splash by the Giants' new-look front office, which is now led by former All-Star catcher Buster Posey, who took over in September after Farhan Zaidi was fired. Canadian outfielder Tyler O'Neill finalizes 3-year, $49.5M US deal with Orioles San Francisco has missed the playoffs in each of the last three years, going 80-82 this season. Adames' deal is the richest in franchise history, topping a $167 million, nine-year contract that Posey agreed to in 2013. The 29-year-old Adames is coming off his best offensive season in the big leagues after hitting .251 with a career-high 32 homers and 112 RBIs with the Milwaukee Brewers. He's a solid defensive shortstop with a strong arm and good range, though his metrics slipped a little in 2024. He also has provided consistent power with 150 homers over seven seasons, breaking into the big leagues in 2018 with Tampa Bay and hit 20 homers in his first full season in 2019.

[You may also click here for additional information] NEW YORK, Nov. 30, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP , a leading national securities law firm, is investigating potential claims against PACS Group, Inc. ("PACS Group" or the "Company") (NYSE: PACS ) and reminds investors of the January 13, 2025 deadline to seek the role of lead plaintiff in a federal securities class action that has been filed against the Company. Faruqi & Faruqi is a leading national securities law firm with offices in New York, Pennsylvania, California and Georgia. The firm has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors since its founding in 1995. See . As detailed below, the complaint alleges that the Company and its executives violated federal securities laws by making false and/or misleading statements and/or failing to disclose that: (1) that the Company engaged in a "scheme" to submit false Medicare claims which "drove more than 100% of PACS' operating and net income from 2020 – 2023"; (2) that the Company engaged in a "scheme" to "bill thousands of unnecessary respiratory and sensory integration therapies to Medicare"; (3) that the Company engaged in a scheme to falsify documentation related to licensure and staffing; and (4) that, as a result of the foregoing, Defendants' positive statements about the Company's business, operations, and prospects were materially misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis. On April 11, 2024, PACS Group conducted its IPO, selling 21,428,572 shares of common stock at a price of $21.00 per share, received net proceeds of approximately $450 million. On September 3, 2024, PACS filed with the SEC a registration statement for a secondary offering on Form S-1 (the "SPO Registration Statement"). On September 6, 2024, PACS filed with the SEC a prospectus for the SPO on Form 424B4, which formed part of the SPO Registration Statement (the "SPO Prospectus" and together with the SPO Registration Statement and attendant materials filed or published with these forms, the "SPO Materials." PACS issued 2,777,778 shares of common stock at $36.25 per share for proceeds of $100.7 million to the Company. Through the SPO, PACS insiders also sold 16,256,704 shares of common stock at $36.25 per share for proceeds of $589.3 million. On November 4, 2024, Hindenburg Research published a report based on a 5-month investigation that included interviews with 18 former PACS Group employees, competitors, and an analysis of more than 900 PACS facility cost reports. The report alleged the Company had "abused a COVID-era waiver" in a "scheme" that involved falsely submitting false Medicare claims which "drove more than 100% of PACS' operating and net income from 2020 – 2023, enabling PACS to IPO in early 2024 with the illusion of legitimate growth and profitability." The report further alleged the Company engaged in a scheme to maintain revenue by "bill[ing] thousands of unnecessary respiratory and sensory integration therapies to Medicare Part B regardless of clinical need or outcomes." The report also alleged a widespread practice of falsifying documentation, including by engaging in a "scheme whereby PACS attempts to fool regulators by 'renting' licenses from third parties to 'hang' on buildings" and then "either employs unlicensed administrators or has administrators manage multiple buildings in excess of state mandated limits." Similarly, the report alleges the Company engaged in a scheme related to licensure and staffing of nurses, whereby "PACS secretly lists uncertified nurse aides (NAs) as certified in the system, in an apparent scheme to cheat staffing ratios" and "retroactively add fake RN hours" in order "to meet minimum staffing requirements, boost star ratings, and avoid costly penalties." On this news, the Company's share price fell $11.93 or 27.78%, to close at $31.01 per share on November 4, 2024, on unusually heavy trading volume. Then, on November 6, 2024, before the market opened, the Company announced that it would postpone its fiscal third quarter 2024 earnings release. The Company further disclosed it had "received civil investigative demands from the federal government regarding the Company's reimbursement and referral practices that may or may not be related to this week's third-party report." On this news, the Company's share price fell $11.45 or 38.76%, to close at $18.09 per share on November 6, 2024, on unusually heavy trading volume. By the commencement of this action, PACS Group stock has traded as low as $18.09 per share, a more than 13.9% decline from the $21 per share IPO price. The court-appointed lead plaintiff is the investor with the largest financial interest in the relief sought by the class who is adequate and typical of class members who directs and oversees the litigation on behalf of the putative class. Any member of the putative class may move the Court to serve as lead plaintiff through counsel of their choice, or may choose to do nothing and remain an absent class member. Your ability to share in any recovery is not affected by the decision to serve as a lead plaintiff or not. Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP also encourages anyone with information regarding PACS Group's conduct to contact the firm, including whistleblowers, former employees, shareholders and others.

Jimmy Carter, the 39th U.S. president, has died at 100Former U.S. President Jimmy Carter has died. He was 100 years old and had spent more than a year in hospice care. The Georgia peanut farmer served one turbulent term in the White House before building a reputation as a global humanitarian and champion of democracy. He defeated President Gerald Ford in 1976 promising to restore trust in government but lost to Ronald Reagan four years later amid soaring inflation, gas station lines and the Iran hostage crisis. He and his wife, Rosalynn Carter, then formed The Carter Center, and he earned a Nobel Peace Prize while making himself the most active and internationally engaged of former presidents. The Carter Center said the former president died Sunday afternoon in Plains, Georgia.THUNDER BAY — Deputants all agreed on one thing at the final public engagement session for the city's Council Composition Review Committee. They do not like the proposal for a hybrid 4-ward system. The review committee heard from four people who all wanted the review committee to change their proposed recommendation to council. Three of the deputants argued for variations of an all ward system, which is not one of the options the committee was considering. The fourth, Shane Judge, asked the committee to consider only recommending an at-large system. He said the to do away with the 4-ward hybrid model "is all wrong.” “I am disenfranchised by a system where I am unable to vote for everyone who has the power to raise my taxes,” said Judge. He argued that ward councillors do not make decisions that best serve the city as a whole, but only for their ward constituents. “Ward councillors may indeed be able to walk and chew gum at the same time, but it's not in their political calculus to do so,” said Judge. “The evidence suggests that even though the vast preponderance of the issues dealt with by our city council are citywide in nature. Ward councillors do not feel as compelling a pressure to please the majority of voters in the city. “It's because it's not necessary for their political survival. Collaterally, because of the cumbersome size of our council, ward counsellors get to politically hide in the weeds, invisible from media coverage because of the sheer numbers. They are not exposed to the level of media scrutiny they should be for their votes on citywide issues. “And since the current hybrid model and the one proposed by administration has a majority of ward councillors. The financial and social health of the entire city is placed on a lower level of concern because it's politics right now." Judge did propose a compromise. He suggested that the review committee keep their four-ward boundary plan but have only one elected ward councillor for each ward with the rest of the councillors, a majority, elected at-large. Jason Veltri argued that equity and fairness are better served by an all-ward system. “It ensures that neighbourhoods and people in this community have a dedicated voice at the table. Your city issues are still being addressed. The ward councillors are usually the first line of defence when an issue comes up. An at-large councillor is the last line of defence,” said Veltri. Veltri asked the review committee to consider adding three wards to meet the committee's target number of 10 councillors. Cory Bagdon also suggested the review committee add an all-ward system to their recommendation. He proposed a boundary redistribution of nine smaller wards with nearly equal populations. The names of each of the existing wards would stay the same except McKellar which was marked as Ward A in his presentation. Red River would be cut in half. The other half was labelled Ward B. Bagdon told Newswatch that if his concept was recommended, “a powerful step would be to have the Indigenous communities come up with the names for those wards.” According to phase-one of the review committee’s public engagement, Indigenous representatives felt they would be better represented with an at-large system. Bagdon said, “two wards named after these Indigenous communities will inspire that pride in our community, pride in our neighbourhood and it will encourage candidates to run for election. “And that's how we're going to end up with Indigenous representation of council." Vern Seymour suggested the review committee remove the hybrid aspect from the 4-ward model. Seymour said he would like the review committee to keep the four-ward model but reduce the size of council to eight, plus the mayor, and do away with the hybrid aspect of the model. He reasons that the public needs to start moving “past the Port Arthur and Fort William rivalry” and start thinking about the city as a whole. “I suggest no more than eight. Lessing the required review by the citizens in total, possibly reducing the name recognition problem and bringing more citizens into total involvement.” said Seymour. When asked if the deputations have influenced the review committee'[s recommendation, Vice-Chair Cody Fraser said the two options are still on the table. “At the end of the day, we're tasked with bringing forward the best recommendation possible. It's not necessarily one that we think will be politically viable. But it's our goal and it's our mandate to do what we think as a community is in the best interest of the community,” said Fraser. “Whether that's gonna be a recommendation of what we've already brought to the table or something new, it remains to be seen. He noted the feedback from the public survey and deputations of the second phase consultation will be presented to the committee on Dec. 3.

MINNEAPOLIS – Penn State fans, greetings from Huntington Stadium. James Franklin’s No. 4 Nittany Lions are warming up ahead of their Big Ten matchup with P.J. Fleck’s Minnesota Golden Gophers. The weather is incredible for Minnesota at this time of year: 40 degrees and no wind. You can follow along here at PennLive for updates throughout the game. PSU has won two consecutive games since dropping a narrow 20-13 decision to Ohio State at Beaver Stadium. The Lions scored a total of 84 points in victories over Washington (35-6) and Purdue (49-10). Minnesota was off last week. PSU is 4-0 on the road. Penn State wideout Julian Fleming i s listed as questionable on the Big Ten-mandated availability report and young corner Elliot Washington is out with an undisclosed injury. Here’s the big question: What will Minnesota’s defense do to try and stop Penn State star tight end Tyler Warren? Warren, who leads the Lions in catches (67), yards (808) and receiving touchdowns (five). One more note on Warren: He will double his 2023 output in receptions with his next catch. He had 34 receptions for 422 yards and seven touchdowns in 2023. THIRD QUARTER PENN STATE 23, MINNESOTA 22 3:43: Penn State moved 57 yards in five plays to take its first lead on a 12-yard touchdown run by Nick Singleton. Penn State tight end Tyler Warren had three catches for 30 yards on the drive. Ryan Barker’s extra point gave the Lions the lead. PENN STATE 23, MINNESOTA 22. 9:59: Penn State’s defense could not get a stop on Minnesota’s first possession. The Gophers drove 51 yards in nine plays to set up a 42-yard field goal by Dragan Kesich. MINNESOTA 22, PENN STATE 16. HALFTIME MINNESOTA 19, PENN STATE 16 The final couple of minutes got crazy here in Minneapolis. Minnesota had all the momentum late, then Penn State and Drew Allar stole it, only to see a crazy special teams play but the Gophers in front, 19-16. First, Minnesota’s Derik LeCaptain deflected a Riley Thompson punt, giving the Gophers’ possession at the PSU 21 with 1:10 left before half. The Gophers then ran a trick play, with running back Darius Taylor taking a handoff, pitching it to wideout Daniel Jackson, who flipped it back to quarterback Max Brosmer.
