Hezbollah fires more than 180 rockets and other projectiles into Israel, wounding at least 7 BEIRUT (AP) — Hezbollah has fired at least 185 rockets and other projectiles into Israel, wounding seven people in the militant group's heaviest barrage in several days. The attacks in northern and central Israel happened Sunday in response to deadly Israeli strikes in central Beirut on Saturday. Meanwhile, negotiators pressed on with cease-fire efforts to halt the all-out war. Lebanon's military says an Israeli strike on a Lebanese army center in the southwest killed one soldier and wounded 18 others. Israel's military has expressed regret and said its operations are directed solely against the militants. Lebanon’s caretaker prime minister condemned the latest strike as an assault on the U.S.-led cease-fire efforts. Israel cracks down on Palestinian citizens who speak out against the war in Gaza UMM AL-FAHM, Israel (AP) — In the year since the war in Gaza broke out, Israel's government has been cracking down on dissent among its Palestinian citizens. Authorities have charged Palestinians with “supporting terrorism” because of posts online or for demonstrating against the war. Activists and rights watchdogs say Palestinians have also lost jobs, been suspended from schools and faced police interrogations. Palestinians make up about 20% of Israel's population. Many feel forced to self-censor out of fear of being jailed and further marginalized in society. Others still find ways to dissent, but carefully. Israel's National Security Ministry counters that, “Freedom of speech is not the freedom to incite.” Israel says rabbi who went missing in the UAE was killed TEL AVIV, Israel (AP) — Israel says the body of an Israeli-Moldovan rabbi who went missing in the United Arab Emirates has been found, citing Emirati authorities. The statement from Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office on Sunday said Zvi Kogan was killed, calling it a “heinous antisemitic terror incident.” It said: “The state of Israel will act with all means to seek justice with the criminals responsible for his death." Kogan went missing on Thursday, and there were suspicions he had been kidnapped. His disappearance comes as Iran has been threatening to retaliate against Israel after the two countries traded fire in October. The rising price of paying the national debt is a risk for Trump's promises on growth and inflation WASHINGTON (AP) — Donald Trump has big plans for the economy. He also has big debt problem that'll be a hurdle to delivering on those plan. Trump has bold ambitions on tax cuts, tariffs and other programs. But high interest rates and the price of repaying the federal government’s existing debt could limit what he’s able to do. The federal debt stands at roughly $36 trillion, and the spike in inflation after the pandemic has pushed up the government’s borrowing costs such that debt service next year will easily exceed spending on national security. Moscow offers debt forgiveness to new recruits and AP sees wreckage of a new Russian missile KYIV, Ukraine (AP) — Russian President Vladimir Putin has signed a law granting debt forgiveness to new army recruits who enlist to fight in Ukraine. The measure, whose final version appeared on a government website Saturday, underscores Russia’s needs for military personnel in the nearly 3-year-old war, even as it fired last week a new intermediate-range ballistic missile. Russia has ramped up military recruitment by offering increasing financial incentives to those willing to fight in Ukraine. Ukraine’s Security Service on Sunday showed The Associated Press wreckage of the new intermediate-range ballistic missile that struck a factory in the central Ukrainian city of Dnipro on Thursday. Forecasts warn of possible winter storms across US during Thanksgiving week WINDSOR, Calif. (AP) — Forecasters in the U.S. have warned of another round of winter weather that could complicate travel leading up to Thanksgiving. California is bracing for more snow and rain this weekend while still grappling with some flooding and small landslides from a previous storm. The National Weather Service has issued a winter storm warning for California's Sierra Nevada through Tuesday, with heavy snow expected at high elevations. Thousands remained without power in the Seattle area on Saturday after a “bomb cyclone” storm system hit the West Coast earlier in the week, killing two people. Parts of the Northeast and Appalachia also began the weekend with heavy precipitation. After Trump's win, Black women are rethinking their role as America's reliable political organizers ATLANTA (AP) — Donald Trump's victory has dismayed many politically engaged Black women, and they're reassessing their enthusiasm for politics and organizing. Black women often carry much of the work of getting out the vote, and they had vigorously supported the historic candidacy of Kamala Harris. AP VoteCast, a survey of more than 120,000 voters, found that 6 in 10 Black women said the future of democracy was the single most important factor for their vote this year, a higher share than for other demographic groups. But now, some Black women are renewing calls to emphasize rest, focus on mental health and become more selective about what fight they lend their organizing power to. Pakistan partially stops mobile and internet services ahead of pro-Imran Khan protest ISLAMABAD (AP) — Pakistan has suspended mobile and internet services “in areas with security concerns” as supporters of imprisoned former premier Imran Khan gear up for a protest in the capital. The government and Interior Ministry made the announcement on X, which is banned in Pakistan. Sunday's protest is to demand Khan's release. He has been in prison for more than a year but remains popular. His supporters rely heavily on social media and messaging apps to coordinate with each other. Pakistan has already sealed off Islamabad and shut down major roads and highways connecting the city with Khan's power bases. Uruguay's once-dull election has become a dead heat in the presidential runoff MONTEVIDEO, Uruguay (AP) — Uruguayans are heading to the polls to choose their next president. In Sunday's election, the candidates of the conservative governing party and the left-leaning coalition are locked in a close runoff after failing to win an outright majority in last month’s vote. It's a hard-fought race between Álvaro Delgado, the incumbent party’s candidate, and Yamandú Orsi from the Broad Front, a coalition of leftist and center-left parties that governed for 15 years until the 2019 victory of center-right President Luis Lacalle Pou — overseeing the legalization of abortion, same-sex marriage and the sale of marijuana in the small South American nation. Chuck Woolery, smooth-talking game show host of 'Love Connection' and 'Scrabble,' dies at 83 NEW YORK (AP) — Chuck Woolery, the affable, smooth-talking game show host of “Wheel of Fortune,” “Love Connection” and “Scrabble” who later became a right-wing podcaster, skewering liberals and accusing the government of lying about COVID-19, has died. He was 83. Mark Young, Woolery’s podcast co-host and friend, said in an email early Sunday that Woolery died at his home in Texas with his wife, Kristen, present. Woolery, with his matinee idol looks, coiffed hair and ease with witty banter, was inducted into the American TV Game Show Hall of Fame in 2007 and earned a daytime Emmy nomination in 1978. He teamed up with Young for the podcast “Blunt Force Truth” and became a full supporter Donald Trump.Seibert misses an extra point late as the Commanders lose their 3rd in a row, 34-26 to the Cowboyswww.nuebe9.gaming 。

Final regular-season games loom large in determining conference championship matchupsThe abuse began when she was still an infant. A relative molested her, took photographs and swapped the images with others online. He allowed another man to spend time with her, multiplying the abuse. Nearly every day, the woman, now 27 and living in the Northeast, is reminded of that abuse with a law enforcement notice that someone has been charged with possessing those images. One of those notifications, which she received in late 2021, said the images had been found on a man's MacBook in Vermont. Her lawyer later confirmed with law enforcement that the images had also been stored in Apple 's iCloud . The notice arrived months after Apple had unveiled a tool that allowed it to scan for illegal images of sexual abuse. But it quickly abandoned that tool after facing criticism from cybersecurity experts, who said it could pave the way to other government surveillance requests. Now, the woman, using a pseudonym, is suing Apple because she says it broke its promise to protect victims like her. Instead of using the tools that it had created to identify, remove and report images of her abuse, the lawsuit says, Apple allowed that material to proliferate, forcing victims of child sexual abuse to relive the trauma that has shaped their lives. The lawsuit was filed late Saturday in U.S. District Court in Northern California. It says Apple's failures mean it has been selling defective products that harmed a class of customers, namely child sexual abuse victims, because it briefly introduced "a widely touted improved design aimed at protecting children" but "then failed to implement those designs or take any measures to detect and limit" child sexual abuse material.

Under law, victims of child sexual abuse are entitled to a minimum of $150,000 in damages, which means the total award, with the typical tripling of damages being sought, could exceed $1.2 billion should a jury find Apple liable. Discover the stories of your interest Blockchain 5 Stories Cyber-safety 7 Stories Fintech 9 Stories E-comm 9 Stories ML 8 Stories Edtech 6 Stories The lawsuit is the second of its kind against Apple, but its scope and potential financial impact could force the company into a yearslong litigation process over an issue it has sought to put behind it. And it points to increasing concern that the privacy of Apple's iCloud allows illegal material to be circulated without being as easily spotted as it would be on social media services such as Facebook. For years, Apple has reported less abusive material than its peers, capturing and reporting a small fraction of what is caught by Google and Facebook. It has defended its practice by saying it is protecting user privacy, but child safety groups have criticized it for not doing more to stop the spread of that material. The case is the latest example of an emerging legal strategy against tech companies. For decades, Section 230 of the Communications and Decency Act has shielded companies from legal liability for what users post on their platforms. But recent rulings by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit have determined that those shields can be applied only to content moderation and don't provide blanket liability protection. The rulings have raised hope among plaintiffs' attorneys that tech companies could be challenged in court. In August, a 9-year-old girl sued the company in North Carolina after strangers sent her child sexual abuse videos through iCloud links and encouraged her to film and upload her own nude videos. Apple filed a motion to dismiss the North Carolina case, saying Section 230 protects it from liability for material posted on iCloud by someone else. It also argued that iCloud couldn't be subject to a product liability claim because it wasn't a product, like a defective tire. In a statement in response to the new suit, Fred Sainz, an Apple spokesperson, said: "Child sexual abuse material is abhorrent and we are committed to fighting the ways predators put children at risk. We are urgently and actively innovating to combat these crimes without compromising the security and privacy of all our users." Sainz pointed to safety tools the company has introduced to curtail the spread of newly created illegal images, including features in its Messages app that warn children of nude content and allow people to report harmful material to Apple. Riana Pfefferkorn, a lawyer and policy fellow at the Stanford Institute for Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence, said there are significant hurdles to any lawsuit over Apple's policies on child sexual abuse material. She added that a victory for the plaintiffs could backfire because it could raise questions about whether the government is forcing Apple to scan for illegal material in violation of the Fourth Amendment. The New York Times granted anonymity to the 27-year-old woman suing Apple so she could tell her story. She spoke anonymously because people have been known to seek out victims and search for their child sexual abuse material on the internet. Her abuse started not long after she was born. An adult male family member would engage in sexual acts with her and photograph them. He was arrested after logging into a chat room and offering to swap photos of the girl with other men. He was found guilty of several felonies and sent to prison. What she could remember of the abuse came to her in bits and pieces. One night as her mother watched an episode of "Law & Order: Special Victims Unit" about child sexual abuse, the story seemed eerily familiar. She screamed and startled her mother, who realized that she thought that the episode was about her. "It's not just you," her mother told her. "There are thousands of other kids." As her images were found online, the authorities would notify her mother. They have commonly received a dozen or so notifications daily for more than a decade. What bothered her the most was knowing that pedophiles shared some of her photos with children to normalize abuse, a process called grooming. "It was hard to believe there were so many out there," she said. "They were not stopping." The internet turbocharged the spread of child sexual abuse material. Physical images that had once been hard to find and share became digital photos and videos that could be stored on computers and servers and shared easily. In 2009, Microsoft worked with Hany Farid, now a professor at the University of California, Berkeley, to create a software system to recognize photos, even altered ones, and compare them against a database of known illegal images. The system, called PhotoDNA, was adopted by a number of tech companies, including Google and Facebook. Apple declined to use PhotoDNA or do widespread scanning like its peers. The tech industry reported 36 million reports of photos and videos to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children, the federal clearinghouse for suspected sexual abuse material. Google and Facebook each filed more than 1 million reports, but Apple made just 267. In 2019, an investigation by the Times revealed that tech companies had failed to rein in abusive material. A bar graph the paper published detailing public companies' reporting practices led Eric Friedman, an Apple executive responsible for fraud protection, to message a senior colleague and say he thought the company may be underreporting child sexual abuse material. "We are the greatest platform for distributing child porn," said Friedman in the 2020 exchange. He said that was because Apple gave priority to privacy over trust and safety. A year later, Apple unveiled a system to scan for child sexual abuse. It said its iPhones would store a database of distinct digital signatures, which are known as hashes, that are associated with known child sexual abuse material identified by groups like the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children. It said it would compare those digital signatures against photos in a user's iCloud storage service. The technique, which it called NeuralHash, would flag matches and forward them to the federal clearinghouse of suspected sexual abuse material. But after cybersecurity experts warned that it would create a back door to iPhones that could give governments access, the company dropped its plan. It said it was almost impossible to scan iCloud photos without "imperiling the security and privacy of our users." Early this year, Sarah Gardner, the founder of a child advocacy group called the Heat Initiative, began searching for law firms with experience representing victims of child sexual abuse. In March, the Heat team asked Marsh Law, a 17-year-old firm that focuses on representing victims of child sexual abuse, if it could bring a suit against Apple. Heat offered to provide $75,000 to support what could be a costly litigation process. It was a strategy borrowed from other advocacy campaigns against companies. Margaret Mabie, a partner at Marsh Law, took on the case. The firm has represented thousands of victims of child sexual abuse. Mabie dug through law enforcement reports and other documents to find cases related to her clients' images and Apple's products, eventually building a list of more than 80 examples, including one of a Bay Area man whom law enforcement found with more than 2,000 illegal images and videos in iCloud. The 27-year-old woman from the Northeast, who is represented by Marsh, agreed to sue Apple because, she said, she believes that Apple gave victims of child sexual abuse false hope by introducing and abandoning its NeuralHash system. An iPhone user herself, she said the company chose privacy and profit over people. Joining the suit was a difficult decision, she said. Because her images have been downloaded by so many people, she lives in constant fear that someone might track her down and recognize her. And being publicly associated with a high-profile case could cause an uptick in trafficking of her images. But she said she had joined because she thought it was time for Apple to change. She said the company's inaction was heart-wrenching.QSWF participates in Unesco's Global Forum against Racism and Discrimination

Im there,” Wembanyama wrote. It was 9:36 a.m. People began showing up almost immediately. Washington Square Park is a known spot for chess in New York — Bobby Fischer among others have famously played there, and it’s been a spot used for multiple movie scenes featuring the game. Wembanyama was there for an hour in the rain, from about 10-11 a.m. He played four games, winning two and losing two before departing to catch the Spurs’ flight. Wembanyama had been trying to get somewhere to play chess for the bulk of the team’s time in New York — the Spurs played the Knicks on Christmas and won at Brooklyn on Friday night. The schedule never aligned, until Saturday morning. And even with bad weather, he bundled up to make it happen.

PRICE and ROB GILLIES NEW YORK (AP) — President-elect Donald Trump’s recent dinner with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and his visit to Paris for the reopening of the Notre Dame Cathedral were not just exercises in policy and diplomacy. They were also prime trolling opportunities for Trump.

There were his belittling nicknames for political opponents, his impressions of other political figures and the plentiful memes he shared on social media. Now that’s he’s preparing to return to the Oval Office, Trump is back at it, and his trolling is attracting more attention — and eyerolls. On Sunday, Trump turned a photo of himself seated near a smiling first lady Jill Biden at the Notre Dame ceremony into a social media promo for his new perfume and cologne line, with the tag line, “A fragrance your enemies can’t resist!” The first lady’s office declined to comment. When Trudeau hastily flew to Florida to meet with Trump last month over the president-elect’s threat to impose a 25% tax on all Canadian products entering the U.S., the Republican tossed out the idea that Canada become the 51st U.S. state. The Canadians passed off the comment as a joke, but Trump has continued to play up the dig, including in a post Tuesday morning on his social media network referring to the prime minister as “Governor Justin Trudeau of the Great State of Canada.” After decades as an entertainer and tabloid fixture, Trump has a flair for the provocative that is aimed at attracting attention and, in his most recent incarnation as a politician, mobilizing fans. He has long relished poking at his opponents, both to demean and minimize them and to delight supporters who share his irreverent comments and posts widely online and cheer for them in person. Trump, to the joy of his fans, first publicly needled Canada on his social media network a week ago when he posted an AI-generated image that showed him standing on a mountain with a Canadian flag next to him and the caption “Oh Canada!” After his latest post, Canadian Immigration Minister Marc Miller said Tuesday: “It sounds like we’re living in a episode of South Park.” Trudeau said earlier this week that when it comes to Trump, “his approach will often be to challenge people, to destabilize a negotiating partner, to offer uncertainty and even sometimes a bit of chaos into the well established hallways of democracies and institutions and one of the most important things for us to do is not to freak out, not to panic.” Even Thanksgiving dinner isn’t a trolling-free zone for Trump’s adversaries. On Thanksgiving Day, Trump posted a movie clip from “National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation” with President Joe Biden and other Democrats’ faces superimposed on the characters in a spoof of the turkey-carving scene. The video shows Trump appearing to explode out of the turkey in a swirl of purple sparks, with the former president stiffly dancing to one of his favorite songs, Village People’s “Y.M.C.A.” In his most recent presidential campaign, Trump mocked Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, refusing to call his GOP primary opponent by his real name and instead dubbing him “Ron DeSanctimonious.” He added, for good measure, in a post on his Truth Social network: “I will never call Ron DeSanctimonious ‘Meatball’ Ron, as the Fake News is insisting I will.” As he campaigned against Biden, Trump taunted him in online posts and with comments and impressions at his rallies, deriding the president over his intellect, his walk, his golf game and even his beach body. After Vice President Kamala Harris took over Biden’s spot as the Democratic nominee, Trump repeatedly suggested she never worked at McDonalds while in college. Trump, true to form, turned his mocking into a spectacle by appearing at a Pennsylvania McDonalds in October, when he manned the fries station and held an impromptu news conference from the restaurant drive-thru. Trump’s team thinks people should get a sense of humor. “President Trump is a master at messaging and he’s always relatable to the average person, whereas many media members take themselves too seriously and have no concept of anything else other than suffering from Trump Derangement Syndrome,” said Steven Cheung, Trump’s communications director. “President Trump will Make America Great Again and we are getting back to a sense of optimism after a tumultuous four years.” Though both the Biden and Harris campaigns created and shared memes and launched other stunts to respond to Trump’s taunts, so far America’s neighbors to the north are not taking the bait. “I don’t think we should necessarily look on Truth Social for public policy,” Miller said. Gerald Butts, a former top adviser to Trudeau and a close friend, said Trump brought up the 51st state line to Trudeau repeatedly during Trump’s first term in office. “Oh God,” Butts said Tuesday, “At least a half dozen times.” “This is who he is and what he does. He’s trying to destabilize everybody and make people anxious,” Butts said. “He’s trying to get people on the defensive and anxious and therefore willing to do things they wouldn’t otherwise entertain if they had their wits about them. I don’t know why anybody is surprised by it.” Gillies reported from Toronto. Associated Press writer Darlene Superville contributed to this report.
