ATLANTA (AP) — Jimmy Carter, the peanut farmer who tried to restore virtue to the White House after the Watergate scandal and Vietnam War, then rebounded from a landslide defeat to become a global advocate of human rights and democracy, has died. He was 100 years old . The Carter Center said the 39th president died Sunday afternoon, more than a year after entering hospice care , at his home in Plains, Georgia, where he and his wife, Rosalynn, who died in November 2023, lived most of their lives. The center said he died peacefully, surrounded by his family. As reaction poured in from around the world, President Joe Biden mourned Carter’s death, saying the world lost an “extraordinary leader, statesman and humanitarian” and he lost a dear friend. Biden cited Carter’s compassion and moral clarity, his work to eradicate disease, forge peace, advance civil and human rights, promote free and fair elections, house the homeless and advocacy for the disadvantaged as an example for others. “To all of the young people in this nation and for anyone in search of what it means to live a life of purpose and meaning – the good life – study Jimmy Carter, a man of principle, faith, and humility,” Biden said in a statement. “He showed that we are a great nation because we are a good people – decent and honorable, courageous and compassionate, humble and strong.” Biden said he is ordering a state funeral for Carter in Washington. A moderate Democrat, Carter ran for president in 1976 as a little-known Georgia governor with a broad grin, effusive Baptist faith and technocratic plans for efficient government. His promise to never deceive the American people resonated after Richard Nixon’s disgrace and U.S. defeat in southeast Asia. “If I ever lie to you, if I ever make a misleading statement, don’t vote for me. I would not deserve to be your president,” Carter said. Carter’s victory over Republican Gerald Ford, whose fortunes fell after pardoning Nixon, came amid Cold War pressures, turbulent oil markets and social upheaval over race, women’s rights and America’s role in the world. His achievements included brokering Mideast peace by keeping Egyptian President Anwar Sadat and Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin at Camp David for 13 days in 1978. But his coalition splintered under double-digit inflation and the 444-day hostage crisis in Iran. His negotiations ultimately brought all the hostages home alive, but in a final insult, Iran didn’t release them until the inauguration of Ronald Reagan, who had trounced him in the 1980 election. Humbled and back home in Georgia, Carter said his faith demanded that he keep doing whatever he could, for as long as he could, to try to make a difference. He and Rosalynn co-founded The Carter Center in 1982 and spent the next 40 years traveling the world as peacemakers, human rights advocates and champions of democracy and public health. Awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 2002, Carter helped ease nuclear tensions in North and South Korea, avert a U.S. invasion of Haiti and negotiate cease-fires in Bosnia and Sudan. By 2022, the center had monitored at least 113 elections around the world. Carter was determined to eradicate guinea worm infections as one of many health initiatives. Swinging hammers into their 90s, the Carters built homes with Habitat for Humanity. The common observation that he was better as an ex-president rankled Carter. His allies were pleased that he lived long enough to see biographers and historians revisit his presidency and declare it more impactful than many understood at the time. Propelled in 1976 by voters in Iowa and then across the South, Carter ran a no-frills campaign. Americans were captivated by the earnest engineer, and while an election-year Playboy interview drew snickers when he said he “had looked on many women with lust. I’ve committed adultery in my heart many times,” voters tired of political cynicism found it endearing. The first family set an informal tone in the White House, carrying their own luggage, trying to silence the Marine Band’s traditional “Hail to the Chief" and enrolling daughter, Amy, in public schools. Carter was lampooned for wearing a cardigan and urging Americans to turn down their thermostats. But Carter set the stage for an economic revival and sharply reduced America's dependence on foreign oil by deregulating the energy industry along with airlines, trains and trucking. He established the departments of Energy and Education, appointed record numbers of women and nonwhites to federal posts, preserved millions of acres of Alaskan wilderness and pardoned most Vietnam draft evaders. Emphasizing human rights , he ended most support for military dictators and took on bribery by multinational corporations by signing the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. He persuaded the Senate to ratify the Panama Canal treaties and normalized relations with China, an outgrowth of Nixon’s outreach to Beijing. But crippling turns in foreign affairs took their toll. When OPEC hiked crude prices, making drivers line up for gasoline as inflation spiked to 11%, Carter tried to encourage Americans to overcome “a crisis of confidence.” Many voters lost confidence in Carter instead after the infamous address that media dubbed his “malaise" speech, even though he never used that word. After Carter reluctantly agreed to admit the exiled Shah of Iran to the U.S. for medical treatment, the American Embassy in Tehran was overrun in 1979. Negotiations to quickly free the hostages broke down, and then eight Americans died when a top-secret military rescue attempt failed. Carter also had to reverse course on the SALT II nuclear arms treaty after the Soviets invaded Afghanistan in 1979. Though historians would later credit Carter's diplomatic efforts for hastening the end of the Cold war, Republicans labeled his soft power weak. Reagan’s “make America great again” appeals resonated, and he beat Carter in all but six states. Born Oct. 1, 1924, James Earl Carter Jr. married fellow Plains native Rosalynn Smith in 1946, the year he graduated from the Naval Academy. He brought his young family back to Plains after his father died, abandoning his Navy career, and they soon turned their ambitions to politics . Carter reached the state Senate in 1962. After rural white and Black voters elected him governor in 1970, he drew national attention by declaring that “the time for racial discrimination is over.” Carter published more than 30 books and remained influential as his center turned its democracy advocacy onto U.S. politics, monitoring an audit of Georgia’s 2020 presidential election results. After a 2015 cancer diagnosis, Carter said he felt “perfectly at ease with whatever comes.” “I’ve had a wonderful life,” he said. “I’ve had thousands of friends, I’ve had an exciting, adventurous and gratifying existence.” Sanz is a former Associated Press reporter.Qatar tribune Agencies Over two years since the introduction of ChatGPT by OpenAI – a quick and easy way to ask an AI model almost anything – artificial intelligence has continued to dominate talks, headlines and economic research and will likely continue to do so throughout the following year. From algorithms powering search engines to sophisticated tools diagnosing medical conditions, artificial intelligence is reshaping industries, redefining work and challenging our understanding of intelligence itself. AI is no longer a futuristic fantasy; it is rapidly becoming an integral part of life. But with breakneck innovation, the near future likely holds even more transformative change shaped by the key trends driving this revolution. While generative AI and large language models (LLMs) have mainly shaped these trends until now, what appears to be the dawn of a new era is so-called agentic AI. Described basically as “a combination of different AI techniques, models, and approaches,” it is seen as “a new breed of autonomous agents that can analyze data, set goals and take action to achieve them, all with minimal human supervision.” According to many companies, experts and recent reports, this trend looks to be the dominant trend that could shape the artificial intelligence sector next year. But what more to expect? Let’s break it down: Talking about AI means talking about the company, which some call “consequential” in the field – and yes, that’s OpenAI. Sam Altman, the chief executive of OpenAI, has just recently said surprise advancements could be in store next year.”I expect that in 2025 we will have systems that people look at, even people who are skeptical of current progress, and say, ‘Wow, I did not expect that,’” Altman said, speaking at the New York Times’ DealBook Summit earlier this month. Reflecting on the time when ChatGPT was launched, Altman also said, “My guess is we will hit AGI (artificial general intelligence) sooner than most people in the world think, and it will matter much less.” His remarks came ahead of the announcement of the startup’s new o3 model and details on the transition from being a non-profit entity, as it has been classified so far. Under the plan announced on Friday, OpenAI said it looks to revamp its structure, saying it would create a public benefit corporation to make it easier to “raise more capital than we’d imagined” and remove the restrictions imposed on the startup by its current non-profit parent. “I don’t think anybody knows the truth. I’m sure there will be another explosion at some point where there’s a fundamental change in the architecture of the models. Don’t know when and don’t know where,” Pascale Fung, director of the Center for AI Research (CAiRE) at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, told Anadolu Agency (AA) when asked about the future of AI. AI systems capable of processing multiple data types simultaneously, such as text, images, audio and video, have become a driving force in the industry toward what has been called multimodality. Fung, also a senior director of AI research at Meta-FAIR, a research initiative by Facebook’s parent company Meta, highlighted the significance of such a shift. “That’s not just text. It’s not just a chatbot, but it can also see what you see and hear what you hear.” Multimodal systems, like ChatGPT and Google’s Gemini, already integrate vision and auditory perception with text-based capabilities. These technologies analyze visual or auditory data in real-time, enabling applications like assisting visually impaired individuals by describing their surroundings or reading text aloud. One step forward from chatbots, AI agents are redefining assistance by managing complex, multistep tasks. Unlike chatbots that answer questions, AI agents can perform complex tasks, like booking a family vacation or managing executive schedules, Fung explained. These agents function as “smart humans,” using tools to solve problems and create value.In a recent report, Charles Lamanna, corporate vice president of business and industry at Microsoft Copilot, described agents as “the apps of the AI era.” “Agents will begin to transform every business process, revolutionizing the way we work and manage our organizations,” he added.

An Official works at a dealing room of Hana Bank in Seoul, Dec. 27. Yonhap The Korean currency dipped further against the U.S. dollar to its lowest level in nearly 16 years Friday amid a deepening political crisis following President Yoon Suk Yeol's martial law declaration and the subsequent impeachment. The Korean won was quoted at 1,467.5 won per dollar, down 2.7 won from the previous session. It was the lowest level since March 13, 2009, when the currency was quoted at 1,483.5 won in the aftermath of the global financial crisis. The won opened at 1,467.5 won per dollar Friday and had fallen markedly to as low as 1,486.7 won during intraday trading. The stock market also tumbled on heavy foreign and institutional selling. The benchmark Korea Composite Stock Price Index (KOSPI) lost 1.02 percent to end at 2,404.77. A political crisis has intensified in South Korea as the National Assembly was set to vote on a motion to impeach acting President Han Duck-soo over his refusal to appoint Constitutional Court justices that will adjudicate President Yoon Suk Yeol's impeachment trial. Earlier, parliament voted to impeach Yoon for his shocking, albeit short-lived, imposition of martial law on Dec. 3. This photo shows a currency exchange counter in Seoul, Dec. 24. Yonhap Following the martial law fiasco, the currency has been well above the closely watched level of 1,400 won, and Bank of Korea Gov. Rhee Chang-yong has said the currency is forecast to stay around that level for the time being. "Volatility has grown amid the thin year-end trading. Under such circumstances, authorities' efforts to settle the market would have little market impact," said Kwon Ah-min, an analyst from NH Investment & Securities. The won-dollar exchange rate is forecast to return to normal next month, though there is also a possibility of the won's further weakening to breach the 1,500 won level or lower should political risks prolong, the expert added. The won's weakness also came in line with the continued strengthening of the U.S. dollar, as concerns have deepened over the impact of U.S. President-elect Donald Trump's new tariff policy on South Korean industries and the broader economy. The U.S. Federal Reserve's indication of scaling back the number of rate cuts it anticipated in 2025 to two from the initial four has hammered the won and other Asian currencies. Financial authorities have vowed to inject unlimited liquidity and implement all measures available to settle the market. (Yonhap) To remove this article -
Airports and highways are expected to be jam-packed during Thanksgiving week, a holiday period likely to end with another record day for air travel in the United States. AAA predicts that nearly 80 million Americans will venture at least 50 miles from home between Tuesday and next Monday, most of them by car. However, travelers could be impacted by ongoing weather challenges and those flying to their destinations could be grounded by delays brought on by airline staffing shortages and an airport service workers strike . Here's the latest: Looking to de-stress while waiting for your flight? Many airports have a fleet of therapy dogs — designated fidos and puppers that are eager to receive pets and snuggles from weary travelers. Rules and schedules vary from airport to airport, but the group AirportTherapyDogs uses online crowdsourcing to share the locations of therapy dogs across its various social media accounts. Today, Gracie, a toy Australian shepherd, and Budge, an English bulldog, wandered the concourses at Denver International Airport, and an American Staffordshire Terrier named Hugo greeted travelers at Punta Gorda Airport in Florida. Some airports even feature other therapy pals. San Francisco International Airport’s fleet of animals includes a Flemish Giant rabbit and a hypoallergenic pig. “We cannot live on the wages that we are being paid,” ABM cabin cleaner Priscilla Hoyle said at a rally earlier Monday. “I can honestly say it’s hard every single day with my children, working a full-time job but having to look my kids in the eyes and sit there and say, ‘I don’t know if we’re going to have a home today.’” Timothy Lowe II, a wheelchair attendant, said he has to figure out where to spend the night because he doesn’t make enough for a deposit on a home. “We just want to be able to have everything that’s a necessity paid for by the job that hired us to do a great job so they can make billions,” he said. ABM said it is “committed to addressing concerns swiftly” and that there are avenues for employees to communicate issues, including a national hotline and a “general open door policy for managers at our worksite.” Employees of ABM and Prospect Airport Services cast ballots Friday to authorize the work stoppage at Charlotte Douglas International Airport, a hub for American Airlines. They described living paycheck to paycheck while performing jobs that keep planes running on schedule. Most of them earn $12.50 to $19 an hour, union officials said. Rev. Glencie Rhedrick of Charlotte Clergy Coalition for Justice said those workers should make $22 to $25 an hour. The strike is expected to last 24 hours. Several hundred workers participated in the work stoppage. Forty-four fights have been canceled today and nearly 1,900 were delayed by midday on the East Coast, according to FlightAware . According to the organization’s cheekily named MiseryMap , San Francisco International Airport is having the most hiccups right now, with 53 delays and three cancellations between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m. EST. While that might sound like a lot of delays, they might not be so bad compared to last Friday when the airport suffered 671 delays and 69 cancellations. In an apparent effort to reduce the headaches caused by airport line cutting, American Airlines has rolled out boarding technology that alerts gate agents with an audible sound if a passenger tries to scan a ticket ahead of their assigned group. This new software won’t accept a boarding pass before the group it’s assigned to is called, so customers who get to the gate prematurely will be asked to go back and wait their turn. As of Wednesday, the airline announced, the technology is now being used in more than 100 U.S. airports that American flies out of. The official expansion arrives after successful tests in three of these locations — Albuquerque International Sunport, Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport and Tucson International Airport. ▶ Read more about American Airlines’ new boarding technology Travel can be stressful in the best of times. Now add in the high-level anxiety that seems to be baked into every holiday season and it’s clear travelers could use some help calming frazzled nerves. Here are a few ways to make your holiday journey a little less stressful: 1. Make a checklist of what you need to do and what you need to bring 2. Carry your comfort with you — think noise-canceling headphones, cozy clothes, snacks and extra medication 3. Stay hydrated 4. Keep up to date on delays, gate changes and cancellations with your airline’s app ▶ Read more tips about staying grounded during holiday travel Thanksgiving Day takes place late this year, with the fourth Thursday of November falling on Nov. 28. That shortens the traditional shopping season and changes the rhythm of holiday travel. With more time before the holiday , people tend to spread out their outbound travel over more days, but everyone returns at the same time, said Andrew Watterson, the chief operating officer of Southwest Airlines . “A late Thanksgiving leads to a big crush at the end,” Watterson said. “The Saturday, Sunday, Monday and Tuesday after Thanksgiving are usually very busy with Thanksgiving this late.” Airlines did a relatively good job of handling holiday crowds last year, when the weather was mild in most of the country. Fewer than 400 U.S. flights were canceled during Thanksgiving week in 2023 — about one out of every 450 flights. So far in 2024, airlines have canceled about 1.3% of all flights. Drivers should know that Tuesday and Wednesday afternoons will be the worst times to travel by car, but it should be smooth sailing on freeways come Thanksgiving Day, according to transportation analytics company INRIX. On the return home, the best travel times for motorists are before 1 p.m. on Sunday, and before 8 a.m. or after 7 p.m. on Monday, the company said. In metropolitan areas like Boston, Los Angeles, New York, Seattle and Washington, “traffic is expected to be more than double what it typically is on a normal day,” INRIX transportation analyst Bob Pishue said. Federal Aviation Administration Administrator Mike Whitaker said last week that he expects his agency to use special measures at some facilities to deal with an ongoing shortage of air traffic controllers. In the past, those facilities have included airports in New York City and Florida. “If we are short on staff, we will slow traffic as needed to keep the system safe,” Whitaker said. The FAA has long struggled with a shortage of controllers that airline officials expect will last for years, despite the agency’s lofty hiring goals. 5. Auto club and insurance company AAA predicts that nearly 80 million Americans will venture at least 50 miles from home between Tuesday and next Monday. Most of them will travel by car. 6. Drivers should get a slight break on gas prices . The nationwide average price for gasoline was $3.06 a gallon on Sunday, down from $3.27 at this time last year. 7. The Transportation Security Administration expects to screen 18.3 million people at U.S. airports during the same seven-day stretch. That would be 6% more than during the corresponding days last year but fit a pattern set throughout 2024. 8. The TSA predicts that 3 million people will pass through airport security checkpoints on Sunday; more than that could break the record of 3.01 million set on the Sunday after the July Fourth holiday. Tuesday and Wednesday are expected to be the next busiest air travel days of Thanksgiving week. ▶ Read more about Thanksgiving travel across the U.S. Workers who clean airplanes, remove trash and help with wheelchairs at Charlotte’s airport, one of the nation’s busiest, went on strike Monday to demand higher wages. The Service Employees International Union announced the strike in a statement early Monday, saying the workers would demand “an end to poverty wages and respect on the job during the holiday travel season.” The strike was expected to last 24 hours, said union spokesperson Sean Keady. Employees of ABM and Prospect Airport Services cast ballots Friday to authorize the work stoppage at Charlotte Douglas International Airport, a hub for American Airlines. The two companies contract with American, one of the world’s biggest carriers, to provide services such as cleaning airplane interiors, removing trash and escorting passengers in wheelchairs. ▶ Read more about the Charlotte airport workers’ strike Parts of the Midwest and East Coast can expect to see heavy rain into Thanksgiving, and there’s potential for snow in Northeastern states. A storm last week brought rain to New York and New Jersey, where wildfires have raged in recent weeks, and heavy snow to northeastern Pennsylvania. The precipitation was expected to help ease drought conditions after an exceptionally dry fall. Heavy snow fell in northeastern Pennsylvania, including the Pocono Mountains. Higher elevations reported up to 17 inches (43 centimeters), with lesser accumulations in valley cities including Scranton and Wilkes-Barre. Around 35,000 customers in 10 counties were still without power, down from 80,000 a day ago. In the Catskills region of New York, nearly 10,000 people remained without power Sunday morning, two days after a storm dumped heavy snow on parts of the region. Precipitation in West Virginia helped put a dent in the state’s worst drought in at least two decades and boosted ski resorts as they prepare to open in the weeks ahead. ▶ Read more about Thanksgiving week weather forecasts Two people died in the Pacific Northwest after a rapidly intensifying “ bomb cyclone ” hit the West Coast last Tuesday, bringing fierce winds that toppled trees and power lines and damaged homes and cars. Hundreds of thousands lost electricity in Washington state before powerful gusts and record rains moved into Northern California. Forecasters said the risk of flooding and mudslides remained as the region will get more rain starting Sunday. But the latest storm won’t be as intense as last week’s atmospheric river , a long plume of moisture that forms over an ocean and flows over land. “However, there’s still threats, smaller threats, and not as significant in terms of magnitude, that are still going to exist across the West Coast for the next two or three days,” weather service forecaster Rich Otto said. As the rain moves east throughout the week, Otto said, there’s a potential for heavy snowfall at higher elevations of the Sierra Nevada, as well as portions of Utah and Colorado. California’s Mammoth Mountain, which received 2 feet (0.6 meters) of fresh snow in the recent storm, could get another 4 feet (1.2 meters) before the newest system clears out Wednesday, the resort said. Another round of wintry weather could complicate travel leading up to the Thanksgiving holiday, according to forecasts across the U.S., while California and Washington state continue to recover from storm damage and power outages. In California, where two people were found dead in floodwaters on Saturday, authorities braced for more rain while grappling with flooding and small landslides from a previous storm . Here’s a look at some of the regional forecasts: 9. Sierra Nevada: The National Weather Service office issued a winter storm warning through Tuesday, with heavy snow expected at higher elevations and wind gusts potentially reaching 55 mph (88 kph). Total snowfall of roughly 4 feet (1.2 meters) was forecast, with the heaviest accumulations expected Monday and Tuesday. 10. Midwest and Great Lakes: The Midwest and Great Lakes regions will see rain and snow Monday and the East Coast will be the most impacted on Thanksgiving and Black Friday, forecasters said. 11. East Coast: A low pressure system is forecast to bring rain to the Southeast early Thursday before heading to the Northeast. Areas from Boston to New York could see rain and breezy conditions, with snowfall possible in parts of northern New Hampshire, northern Maine and the Adirondacks. If the system tracks further inland, there could be less snow and more rain in the mountains, forecasters said. ▶ Read more about Thanksgiving week weather forecastsJimmy Carter, who died Sunday at 100, had deep ties to VirginiaBarau pays condolence visit to late Sen Inuwa’s family, others

Meet Jimmy and Rosalynn Carter's family, from their four children to 25 grandchildren and great-grandchildren The politician spent his final months receiving hospice care at home The 100-year-old former president leaves behind an enormous brood FEMAIL rounded up everything you need to know about his 29 descendants By LILLIAN GISSEN FOR DAILYMAIL.COM Published: 23:54, 29 December 2024 | Updated: 23:56, 29 December 2024 e-mail 23 shares View comments Jimmy Carter, the longest-living president in US history, has tragically passed away, leaving behind an enormous family, including four children, 11 grandkids, and 14 great-grandchildren. The 100-year-old 39th President of the United States married his wife, Rosalynn Smith, who died in November 2023 at 96, nearly eight decades ago - in 1946 - and they went on to welcome three sons and one daughter together. Each of Jimmy's kids have had numerous kids of their own, who have also had numerous kids of their own - resulting in him having a total of 29 descendants. While some of some of the former President's kids and grandkids have followed in Jimmy's footsteps and launched their own successful careers in politics, others tried and failed. Jimmy Carter, the longest living president in US history, leaves behind an enormous family Jimmy (seen with his family in the late '70s) and his wife, Rosalynn, welcomed three sons and a daughter. Each of their kids have had numerous kids of their own, who also had numerous kids His first-born son, Jack - who was kicked out of the Navy after he was caught smoking weed with his friends when he was younger - ran for the Senate in Nevada in 2006, but ultimately lost. Jimmy's second-eldest son, Chip, worked for the Democratic National Committee and now serves as the president of a nonprofit organization founded by his parents, while his third-born, Jeff, started a computer mapping company. As for Jimmy's fourth child, his only daughter, Amy - who practically stole everyone's hearts when her dad was elected President when she was just nine years old - she grew up to be a fierce activist who has attended many protests against the US's foreign policy, which even resulted in her being arrested on one occasion. As the world gears up to grapple with the loss of the beloved former President, FEMAIL has rounded up everything you need to know about the 26 family members he will be remembered by. He is seen with some of his family in 1976 Some of them have also received attention for scandalous behavior - like Chip, who once admitted to 'lighting up' with singer Willie Nelson on the roof of the White House. Jeff also came into the spotlight when his son tragically died of a heart attack at age 28 back in 2015 - a loss that left the entire family devastated. The politician's organization confirmed via Twitter in February that Carter had decided, after a series of hospital stays, to receive hospice care instead of additional medical intervention. He spent his remaining months at home with his devoted wife of 77 years - until she passed on November 19 - and loving family by his side. As the world grapples with the loss of the beloved former president, FEMAIL has rounded up everything you need to know about the 29 family members he will be remembered by. From his Senator and award-winning lawyer grandson to his researcher grandson who helped uncover controversial videos of Mitt Romney during the 2012 Presidential race, here's everything you need to know about Jimmy's kids, grandkids, and great-grandkids. Jimmy and Rosalynn's first son, John 'Jack' Carter, was kicked out of the Navy for smoking weed and unsuccessfully ran for the United States' Senate in Nevada Jimmy and Rosalynn's oldest son, John 'Jack' William Carter (seen in 2006) graduated from Georgia Tech, and earned a law degree from the University of Georgia School of Law in 1975 Jimmy and Rosalynn welcomed their first child together, a baby boy whom they named John 'Jack' William Carter, on July 3, 1947. The couple moved around a lot during the early years of Jack's life - thanks to Jimmy's work in the Navy - but they eventually settled in a small town in Georgia, called Plains, where they ran a peanut farm. It's been said that Jack, now 77, helped tend to the farm as a kid, and that his dad would pay him 10 cents per hour for his hard work. Soon after they moved to Georgia, Jimmy began his political career - he was elected to the Georgia House of Representatives in 1953, became a Georgia state Senator in 1963, followed by the Georgia governor in 1971, and the President of the United States in 1977. But as his father's career flourished, Jack began to struggle. He switched from college to college, attending Georgia Institute of Technology, Emory University, and Georgia Southwestern State University, before he ultimately left school altogether to join the Navy in April 1968. But in 1970, Jimmy's first-born was kicked out with a 'less than honorable' discharge after he and some friends were caught smoking marijuana at a Naval Reactors Facility in Idaho. But the then-23-year-old quickly turned things around. He decided to return to school, and received his bachelor's degree in Nuclear Physics from Georgia Tech, followed by a law degree from the University of Georgia School of Law in 1975. After leaving the Navy, he also found love, marrying a woman named Juliette 'Judy' Langford - the daughter of Georgia state Senator James Beverly Langford. Together, they welcomed two children - a son named Jason James Carter, born in 1975, and a daughter named Sarah Rosemary Carter, born in 1978. In 2006, Jack ran for a seat in the United States Senate - however, he ultimately lost to Republican John Ensign. He is seen with his dad in 2006 After finishing his schooling, Jack starting practicing law for his wife's father, and helped his own dad during his Presidential campaign in 1976. He and Judy then decided to relocate to Chicago, where they lived together with their two kids for many years while he worked various jobs - including for the Chicago Board of Trade and for Citibank. The pair ultimately opted to go their separate ways, and the details of their divorce are not known. He then got re-married to a woman named Elizabeth Brasfield in 1992. She had two children from a previous marriage - a son named John Chuldenko and a daughter named Sarah Reynolds - who became Jack's step-kids. The family moved to Las Vegas, Nevada, in 2002, and in 2006, Jack ran for a seat in the United States Senate - however, he ultimately lost to Republican John Ensign. Since then, he's lived a relatively quiet life out of the spotlight. Jack and Judy's son is an award-winning lawyer and former Georgia Senator, while their daughter has lived a much quieter life Jack's son with his first wife, Judy Langford, named Jason Carter, was a successful lawyer. He also served on Georgia's State Senate from 2010 to 2015. He is seen in 2014 Jack and Judy's son, Jason, now 49, has also followed in his grandfather's footsteps by becoming a politician. After graduating from Duke University with a double major in philosophy and political science, he served in the Peace Corps in South Africa. He then got a law degree from University of Georgia School of Law in 2004, before he became a partner at the law firm Bondurant, Mixson & Elmore. Jason made many strides during his time as a lawyer, earning the Stuart Eizenstat Young Lawyer Award for his work defending voters' rights, and even representing the National Football League Players Association. He is also a successful author, releasing a book entitled Power Lines: Two Years on South Africa's Borders in 2002 - which was derived from diaries he wrote during his time in the Peace Corps. In 2010, he was elected into Georgia's State Senate, which he served on for five years, and in 2014, he became the Democratic nominee for governor of Georgia - however, he ultimately lost the election to Nathan Deal. Jack and Judy's daughter, Sarah, now 44, has lived a much quieter life, and has done her best to stay out of the public eye. She is seen with her grandpa as a baby As for his love life, he married a former journalist and high school teacher named Kate, and together, they have welcomed two sons, named Henry, in 2006, and Thomas, in 2008. Jack and Judy's daughter, Sarah, now 46, has lived a much quieter life, and has done her best to stay out of the public eye.

After getting approval from then-First Lady Michelle Obama, John flew to Washington, D.C. to view the records in 2010, and soon realized that there was nothing in the collection from later than the 1980s.

'My companion on the roof was pointing out to me the sights and layout of how the streets run in Washington. 'I let the weed cover me with a pleasing cloud... I guess the roof of the White House is the safest place to smoke dope.' While the musician didn't reveal who his 'companion' was at the time, Chip later admitted in an interview that he was indeed the one who smoked with Willie. 'We just kept going up ’til we got to the roof, where we leaned against the flagpole at the top of the place and lit one up,' he said during the 2020 documentary Jimmy Carter: Rock & Roll President. 'If you know Washington, the White House is the hub of the spokes - the way it was designed. 'Most of the avenues run into the White House. You could sit up and could see all the traffic coming right at you. It’s a nice place up there.'

Jeff, now 71, graduated from George Washington University in 1978 with a bachelor's degree in geography, specializing in computer cartography. During his time at the school, Time magazine reported that he grew close to a teacher - a former intelligence analyst for the Defense Intelligence Agency named Robert Mercready - and after he graduated, they went on to form the company Computer Mapping Consultants, Inc together, which became a consultant for World Bank. He married a woman he met at college named Annette Davis in 1975, and together, they had three sons - Joshua Jeffrey Carter, born in 1984, Jeremy Davis Carter, born in 1987, and James Carlton Carter, born in 1991. The couple lived with Jeff's father, Jimmy, during much of his Presidency, and they were reportedly very social, racking up tons of celebrity friends, like Bob Dylan and Pope John Paul II, whom they'd host at the White House - before they eventually moved out and got their own place in Georgia. The family faced tragedy in 2015, when their son Jeremy died of a heart attack suddenly at age 28. More heartbreak came in 2021, when Annette sadly passed away at age 68. Her family confirmed the news to People but did not specify the cause of death. 'Annette was a homemaker, and she was devoted to raising her three boys,' her son Josh wrote in the obituary. 'She will be remembered by her friends and family for her easy smile, her fun-loving sense of humor, and her caring nature. 'She loved to laugh at a particularly bad white elephant gift or a ridiculous pair of earrings. 'She always saved stories or comics that she thought would make her sons smile. Annette was a prolific storyteller and often had her listeners in gales of laughter by the end of one of her tales. 'She loved her family and her friends with all her heart, and they loved her back with all of theirs.' Jeff and Annette's middle son died of a heart attack at age 28, while their oldest is a podcaster and their youngest tries to avoid all media attention Jeff and his wife, Annette's first-born son, named Joshua, now 39, is a graduate from Georgia Tech, podcaster, blogger, and woodwork enthusiast.

And it turns out, his love of furniture-making is something he shares with his grandfather, Jimmy. The former President has been very open about his hobby, and would even auction off pieces that he made for charity during his time in the Oval Office. 'Every year when I was at his house for Christmas, I would always go into his shop from when I was eight until well through college,' Joshua once recalled. 'I would work on the projects that he was working on. I think I worked on every single piece that he made for the auction.' Joshua is married a woman named Sarah Carter - whom he started dating at just 11 years old - and they share two sons, named Charles and Jonathan. Jeff and Annette's second son, Jeremy, led a relatively private life up until his tragic death in 2015. Jeff and Annette's second son, Jeremy, tragically died of a heart attack suddenly in 2015, at age 28. He is seen (left) with Joshua and his wife Jimmy later called Jeremy 'a very special child' and 'a wonderful young man whom they all loved very much' during a service 'I am so raw. I feel everything and nothing at once, at the same time,' Joshua wrote on his blog the day after Jeremy's passing. 'My dad called me sometime around 10:10 last night and told me that something was wrong, that they were at the hospital with Jeremy and it was not good. 'I got in the car and got there as quick as I could. Jeremy was not responsive. His temperature was low. His organs were not working. He was bleeding. He was yellow.' Joshua said the heart attack happened while he was home with their mother in the kitchen, and that his 'dear mom' had to 'give him CPR until the paramedics came.' He died later that night after suffering from a second heart attack at the hospital. 'It’s still surreal. I am waiting to wake up or for somebody to tell me that it was a nightmare or a horrible case of mistaken identity or really for somebody that knows all the facts to just tell me that the facts are not true,' Joshua added. 'Just this one time can the facts not be true. I want the universe to lie to me. Just this once. It’s hard to comprehend how much the world has changed.' Jimmy later called Jeremy 'a very special child' and 'a wonderful young man whom they all loved very much' during a service.

South Carolina has won six straight games, and one of the catalysts has been the improved free-throw shooting of Nick Pringle. When South Carolina (9-3) faces Presbyterian (7-7) in the final nonconference game for both teams on Monday in Columbia, S.C., the Gamecocks won't have to hold their breath when Pringle toes the line. During South Carolina's surge, which includes wins over three power conference teams, Pringle has made 26 of 30 (86.7 percent) free-throw attempts. It's a remarkable improvement from his 51.7 percent career success rate entering the season. Last month, in his South Carolina debut after transferring from Alabama, Pringle's foul shooting woes continued as he shot 3-for-8 in stunning 74-71 upset at the hands of the visiting North Florida. But video work with coach Lamont Paris convinced Pringle that he needed to quicken his routine and tweak his set point, which is where a player's eyes focus on the rim. "How long it was taking him to release the ball once he started his free throw process was really long, really, really long," Paris said. "So he shortened it." In a 74-48 win over Radford on Dec. 22, Pringle made all 10 of his free throws. His work at the line is no small matter, as he has taken the second-most free throws on the team (61). Pringle averages 10.3 points and 6.8 rebounds per game, combining with Collin Murray-Boyles (16.2 points, 9.3 rebounds) to give the Gamecocks a formidable duo inside. Presbyterian enters after suffering its first home loss this season, 86-81 in overtime to Manhattan on Dec. 21. It was a frustrating defeat after the Blue Hose led by 19 points in the first half. There was a positive, however, as Carl Parrish delivered 23 points and nine rebounds, both career highs. It was a performance that sixth-year coach Quinton Ferrell has been awaiting. "Seeing him play like that offensively is not a shock to me because that's really what he's capable of," Ferrell said. "He's a big-time offensive player." Parrish combines in the backcourt with the Blue Hose's top two threats: Kory Mincy, who averages 14.9 points and 4.6 assists per game, and Kobe Stewart, who scores at a 14.4 ppg clip. Located just 60 miles apart, South Carolina and Presbyterian (Clinton, S.C.) have a long history, with their first game coming nearly 108 years ago. The Gamecocks lead the series 33-8. --Field Level Media
