LAS VEGAS (AP) — Max Verstappen returned to the Las Vegas Grand Prix as the defending winner of the Sin City spectacle and a fourth consecutive Formula 1 championship well within his reach. The Dutchman needed only to finish Saturday night's race ahead of Lando Norris of McLaren to make it four straight for the Red Bull driver. Verstappen starts fifth and Norris is sixth.

The Mets also agreed to provide personal team security for the All-Star outfielder and his family at the team’s expense for all spring training and regular-season home and road games, according to details of the agreement obtained by The Associated Press. Major League Baseball teams usually provide security for player families in seating areas at ballparks. New York also agreed to assist Soto's family for in-season travel arrangements, guaranteed Soto will have uniform No. 22 and included eight types of award bonuses. Soto's suite will be valued at the Mets' prevailing prices, presumably for tax purposes, and after 2025 he can by each Jan. 15 modify or give up his suite selection for the upcoming season. He can request the premium tickets, to be used by family members, no later than 72 hours before the scheduled game time. The Yankees had refused to offer Soto a free suite. “Some high-end players that make a lot of money for us, if they want suites they buy them ... whether it's CC (Sabathia), whether it’s (Aaron) Judge, whether it’s (Gerrit) Cole, whether it’s any of these guys," general manager Brian Cashman said. "We've gone through a process on previous negotiations where asks might have happened and this is what we did and we’re going to honor those, so no regrets there." Cashman said the Yankees have a shared suite for player families and a family room with babysitting. Soto gets a $75 million signing bonus, payable within 60 days of the agreement’s approval by the commissioner’s office. The deal for the 26-year-old, which tops Shohei Ohtani's $700 million, 10-year contract with the Dodgers, was reached Sunday pending a physical that took place Tuesday. Soto receives salaries of $46,875,000 each in 2025 and 2026, $42.5 million in 2027, $46,875,000 apiece in 2028 and 2029 and $46 million in each of the final 10 seasons. Soto has a contingent right to opt out of the agreement within three days of the end of the 2029 World Series to become a free agent again, but the Mets have the an option to negate the opt-out provision by increasing the yearly salaries for 2030-39 by $4 million annually to $50 million and raising the total value to $805 million. If the club exercises its option to negate the opt-out provision, Soto can make his opt-out decision by the fifth day after the World Series. He has a full no-trade provision and gets a hotel suite on road trips. Soto would receive a $500,000 bonus for winning his first Most Valuable Player award and $1 million for each MVP award. He would get $350,000 for finishing second in the voting and $150,000 for finishing third through fifth. Soto was third in the AL voting this year. He would earn $100,000 for each All-Star selection and Gold Glove, $350,000 for World Series MVP and $150,000 for League Championship Series MVP. Soto would get $100,000 for selection to the All-MLB first or second team, $150,000 for Silver Slugger and $100,000 for the Hank Aaron Award. Award bonuses are to be paid by the Jan. 31 after the season in which the bonus is earned. ___ AP MLB: https://apnews.com/hub/mlb Ronald Blum, The Associated Press

Why Aston Villa still miss Douglas Luiz ahead of his return with Juventus in the Champions League - despite playing just 312 minutes since his £42m summer move to Italy

Thanksgiving is the ultimate food holiday. With it often comes a side of stress for the cook to make a beautiful, bountiful spread for their loved ones to enjoy. Whether you’re hosting your first Thanksgiving meal, are contributing a dish to the holiday feast or are a seasoned pro at putting on the entire production, it becomes easy to make mistakes that we normally wouldn’t if we let the pressure get to us. I’m still haunted by the one year where it seemed like nothing was going according to plan and the food simply wasn’t my best work. Even I, a trained cook, have off days. (It’s frustrating when they fall on Thanksgiving, but it’s also not the end of the world.) Here are some of the common Thanksgiving mistakes you need to look out for — and how to avoid (or fix) them. Film, television and art — I’m looking at you, Norman Rockwell — have inundated us with images of perfect Thanksgiving meals for all of our lives. Let this be a reminder that perfection is overrated. You don’t need to cook an entire buffet with a million different food options, nor is this the time to try a completely new menu that you’ve never prepared before. One main dish, a few sides and a dessert or two — with a mix of family favorites and exciting twists on tradition — are more than enough. And there’s no need to try to do it all yourself, especially if you’re new to hosting. Delegation is the key to your sanity. Assign tasks to guests, such as putting your cousin in charge of beverages, or make it a potluck, which is extremely helpful when you’re feeding more than a handful of people. To help cut down on the amount of work that needs to be done on the day of, figure out what can be accomplished in advance. Come up with a cooking plan and stick to it. But in case you find yourself running behind schedule, have some snacks on hand so you and your guests don’t get hangry. Store-bought is always fine, but, in this instance, store-bought is ideal, as this route will save you from adding another item to your cooking list. There’s nothing worse than being in the middle of cooking and discovering that you don’t have a key ingredient. Sure, you could make a quick run to the store — or send someone else on your behalf — but no one wants to be at the grocery store on Thanksgiving. Part of coming up with a plan should include a list of all of the ingredients you’ll need — and checking it twice. When going through your pantry, it’s important to check quantities, of course, but also that certain items are still effective, such as baking powder, baking soda and yeast, and to make sure that the spices you need are still fresh. When you’re shopping, buy extra of pantry items and other ingredients with longer shelf lives (if you can afford to) in case you make a mistake and need to redo a recipe. Speaking of which, for dishes that are new to you or that you make only during the holidays, read through the recipes at least a couple of times to give yourself a better sense of what to do. Having to constantly consult a cookbook or your phone will not only slow you down but also can easily lead to mishaps. You don’t want to be the person responsible for ruining the mac and cheese. Waking up Thanksgiving morning to find that your turkey is still partially (or fully!) frozen is the worst way to start the day. This is why I encourage people to set the bird in the fridge the weekend before to allow enough time for the bird to fully thaw. (You should estimate about 24 hours for every 4 to 5 pounds.) If it’s the day of and you have a few hours before you need to put the turkey in the oven, place the turkey, still in its packaging, in a clean sink or other large container, cover it with cold water, and change out the water every 30 minutes to speed up the defrosting process. But if that’s not an option, just go ahead and roast it anyway until the turkey reaches the appropriate temperature. Yes, it’ll take a bit longer, but it’ll work out just fine. (Trust me, I know from experience.) Before you place that (hopefully thawed) bird in the oven, don’t forget to remove the giblets. You’ll typically find the neck, gizzard, heart and/or liver in the cavity of the bird, though they can sometimes be in the front of the bird near the breast under a flap of skin. If your first instinct is to throw them in the trash — don’t! Put them to good use by making stock, or add them to gravy, dressing or stuffing for a boost of poultry flavor. Cook the turkey for too little time, and you risk making people sick; cook it for too long, and it can easily become tough and dry. The most challenging thing about roasting a large bird is reaching that sweet spot right in the middle. Don’t trust the plastic pop-up timer that some turkeys come with, and even checking the color of the juices can be misleading. The best way to tell when your turkey is done is with an instant-read thermometer. I love the ones that you can leave in the bird and that beep when they reach the desired temperature. Even still, you should check in a few spots, such as the breast and thigh, just to make sure. Lastly, don’t forget to let the turkey rest for at least 30 minutes before carving so it doesn’t lose moisture. One of the keys to tender, flaky pie crusts is to not work them too much. You want to use a light touch and only work the dough until it mostly holds together when you squeeze it. Your choice of ingredients and how much of them you use can also come into play. For example, too much water can lead to a sticky dough, too much gluten development and, ultimately, a tough crust. If it feels a little dry in the moment, note that the flour will continue to hydrate if you give it a rest in the fridge. There’s no feeling quite like standing in the kitchen on Thanksgiving, hearing the doorbell ring and realizing that you’re still in your pajamas. With all of the attention paid to preparing the meal and setting the table, don’t forget that you need to get ready, too. And don’t save it until the very last minute. Set an alarm for an hour or two before your guests are set to arrive to shower and get dressed, then go back to the kitchen to finish any last-minute dishes . I’d much rather be making the gravy than doing my hair once people have arrived. Although we all love to graze over the course of the afternoon and evening, for safety, food shouldn’t be left out for more than two hours at room temperature. Sure, you’ve probably done it before and been fine, but following the rule is all about risk reduction. You don’t want all of your guests calling and texting you the next day saying that they got sick. Instead, after everyone has eaten their plate and come through for seconds, pack up the food. If they want thirds, that’s what microwaves are for.

Walmart becomes largest company to roll back diversity, equity and inclusion policiesAt $84,000, a six- or seven-passenger luxury SUV better provide some unmistakable style, cutting-edge technology and fearsome performance, when summoned. And though we missed seeing three-plus years’ worth of incremental changes, the 2025 Audi Q7 is a good summary of the brand’s ongoing progress. The reality is that the 2025 Q7 is a moderately updated version of a vehicle last largely revised in 2020, though this year’s model sees a healthy number of refinements to the exterior, as well as some new tech bits. Those include long-awaited access to streaming music services on the multimedia interface, plus the intriguing traffic light information system and standard Google maps, access to both of which is by subscription after a three-year trial. After a break, you can easily forget that a relatively large, three-row vehicle such as this Q7, parked on upgraded, diamond-shaped 21-inch wheels and high-performance all-seasons, is still entirely imbued with racy Audi DNA. I first thought my 55 model’s turbocharged engine was a little labored on shifts and overall acceleration, even in the vehicle’s Dynamic drive mode (there’s a 261-hp 2.0-liter version, this vehicle’s 335-hp 3.0-liter V6 and the ridiculous 500-hp 4.0-l V8 on the SQ7). But lean into it, hard – pedal, steering and braking – and the 5,000-pound Q7 does things that other full-sized SUVs can’t, won’t and don’t do. It has cornering grip, stability and high-speed prowess that are astounding, and can handle a thrashing like a vehicle half its size. And, when I looked, generate 14.2 mpg in the process, though 20 mpg city/highway is the official rating. Maybe don’t do that with the three rows full of people, but know that the Q7 has capability aplenty, and responds to heavy pressure on the accelerator, in safe environments. The inclusion of all-wheel steering, a $1,350 option, added to the vehicle’s versatility, both out on the road and for much easier parking jobs in tight spots. The bigger engine (or that crazy V8) both mean 7,700 pounds of towing, as well. Happily, performance also comes with an extensive suite of safety features and programs, some of which were one-of-a-kind a decade ago but are now found on more pedestrian vehicles. The Pre-Sense forward collision warnings and automatic braking, the super-bright blind spot warnings inside the mirrors and an aggressive lane-keep system are all there. There’s also this year’s added traffic light system, which tells you quite accurately how long you’ll have to wait an upcoming red light, especially in Front Range cities where the lights have been updated to broadcast that info. My ride, with standard Quattro all-wheel drive and that 3.0-liter engine, had a base price of about $66,000. It had been upgraded to the Prestige Package, a $12,000 option group that included a 3-D sound Bang and Olufsen sound system, a four-zone HVAC system with touchscreen controls in the second row, ultra-brilliant laser-light LED headlamps, leather throughout, as well as heated/ventilated/massaged front-row seats. And just like every other brand on earth, Audi now offers its own $2,100 Black optic package, which included those matte gray wheels, black exterior trim and logos, plus darkened chrome exhaust outlets. For 2025, they’ve decreased the amount of drama on the Q7’s face and body, with small upright posts in the octagonal grille, and here that grille, the window trim, the door trim and the rear fascia are all a glossy black. That complements the very attractive interior, which is still reminiscent of a Q8 I last drove in 2019, so changes there are clearly not a quantum leap. You still get a moderately overwhelming mix of touchscreen displays and temperature-sensitive accent lighting throughout the cabin, with upper and lower center touchscreens. The lower screen, which mostly offers HVAC controls, still seems like an attention-grabbing overstatement. It also still uses an Audi-specific haptic design, meaning you really have touch the screen, quite hard, to effect any changes. Otherwise, it’s a beautiful mix of glossy black and chrome-edged appliques on the dash front and center console, real wood surrounds, stitched leather and a flat layer of vents. The odd multi-position center armrest pops up to reveal a phone charger, but almost no other storage space besides a deep, pop-down holster box by the driver’s left knee. The ashtrays (really) in the second-row doors speak to some long-ago German car style, plus optional manual window shades. Seating is all stiff and efficient, but so tightly configured, so I wasn’t able to power-lift the tiny third-row seats without inching the second-row seats out of the way. Third-row up, you’re left with a pretty small cargo area; I thought there might be more room under the cargo deck, but it’s filled up with maybe the largest audio subwoofer I’ve ever seen. You can also airlift or drop the suspension remotely to help with cargo loading. Andy Stonehouse’s column “Mountain Wheels” publishes Saturdays in the Summit Daily News.

LAS VEGAS (AP) — Max Verstappen returned to the Las Vegas Grand Prix as the defending winner of the Sin City spectacle and a fourth consecutive Formula 1 championship well within his reach. The Dutchman needed only to finish Saturday night's race ahead of Lando Norris of McLaren to make it four straight for the Red Bull driver. Verstappen starts fifth and Norris is sixth. Norris can additionally lose the title if he fails to outscore Verstappen by three points on the neon-lit street circuit that zips down the famed Las Vegas Strip. The race is back for a second year and again promoted by Liberty Media, the commercial rights holder of F1. The debut event was a bit of a disaster in that locals were livid for months over ongoing construction, as well as traffic detours and delays, the inability to access many local businesses, outrageous price gouging by the tourism industry as well as LVGP ticketing, and then a loose valve cover that nearly destroyed Carlos Sainz Jr.'s Ferrari minutes into the first practice. It caused an hours-long delay for repairs, fans were kicked out of the circuit, and F1 ran practice until 4 a.m. — when it legally had to reopen the streets to the public. This year has been far less hectic, in part because all of the infrastructure headaches were a year ago, but also that last year's race was spectacular. Despite all its speed bumps, the actual running of the race was one of the best of the F1 season and could produce a similar show Saturday night. George Russell of Mercedes starts from the pole ahead of Sainz , who wants redemption after the valve-cover fiasco last year. He had to serve a penalty because his car was damaged in the incident. Ferrari is expected to be the class of the field, which could tighten the nail-biting constructer championship battle. Red Bull, the two-time reigning winners, have fallen to third in the standings behind McLaren and Ferrari. But with Las Vegas the first of the final three races of the season, McLaren is clinging to a 36-point lead for a championship worth an estimated $150 million in prize money. McLaren last won the constructor title in 1998, while Ferrari last won it in 2008. The race is the final stop in the United States for F1, which has exploded in American popularity the last five years. The trio of races in Miami; Austin, Texas; and Las Vegas are more than any other country. After the race completion, F1 next week is expected to announce it will expand the grid to 11 teams to make room for an American team backed by General Motors' Cadillac brand. The team was initially started by Michael Andretti, who could not receive approval from F1 on his expansion application. Andretti has since turned over his ownership stake to Indiana-businessman Dan Towriss and Mark Walter, the controlling owner of the Los Angeles Dodgers. They would run the Cadillac F1 team that would likely join the grid in 2026. The announcement of the American team did not come during the weekend to not derail from the Las Vegas Grand Prix, which is the showpiece of the Liberty Media portfolio. With one-time infrastructure costs last year, the debut event was believed to cost Liberty nearly $1 billion. Expenses are down this year, but Liberty put in as much glitz and glamour as possible, anyway. There are nightclubs around the course and on top of the paddock, an ice-skating rink, top-level musical acts and a 10 p.m. local start to make it feel like a true Las Vegas big Saturday night event.

International Universal Health Coverage Day, observed annually on 12 December, aims to raise awareness about the importance of strong and resilient health systems and universal health coverage (UHC). Advocates use this day to amplify the voices of millions still waiting for access to essential health services, urging leaders to make smarter, more substantial investments in health. It also encourages diverse stakeholders to commit to advancing UHC, with the ultimate goal of achieving it globally by 2030. Universal health coverage (UHC) aims to ensure that all people globally have access to quality, affordable healthcare. In fact, the United Nations designated 12 December as International Universal Health Coverage Day (UHC Day). Since then, this day has been observed to promote access to healthcare services in countries worldwide. The COVID-19 pandemic has again shown us that UHC and health security are intertwined goals to protect everyone, everywhere, that we achieve through the same health system – in crisis and calm. For health systems to work, they must work for everyone – no matter who they are, where they live, or how much money they have. Equitable health coverage puts women, children, adolescents, and the most vulnerable first because they face the most significant barriers to essential care. The goal of universal health coverage (UHC) has become more attainable as the world has become richer, leading to greater access to health services and technologies, such as vaccines and antibiotics, and to the most dramatic decline in poverty ever achieved. To ensure that every person benefits from the human right to health, political leaders have to make the right choices, the rational economic, financial and social choices of universal health coverage. Governments around the world are responsible for managing healthcare services for their populations by creating opportunities and incentives to attract private healthcare organizations, ensuring proper healthcare facilities. Universal health coverage processes can only be achieved when government-run health organizations collaborate with private healthcare businesses. Hospitals at various levels and rural health centres must be equipped with essential medicines and medical equipment to ensure they are always ready to provide healthcare services. Moreover, human resources for health, including physicians, nurses, medical doctors, and medical technologists, must be deployed. Reducing gaps in health coverage will undoubtedly promote a healthier lifestyle for the community. Consequently, the community will surely turn out healthy and fit people in coming generations.TSS Inc.'s CEO Darryll Dewan sells $1.51 million in stock
