Fantasy tip Packers WR Christian Watson’s slow start to the season means he might have been stashed on someone’s bench or perhaps even became available on some fantasy football waiver wires. Now would be a good time to try to acquire him. Watson had four catches for a career-high 150 yards against the Bears. After getting targeted just 14 times over his first six games, Watson’s had 17 targets in his past three. He had a catch each of the four times Jordan Love targeted him in Chicago. ___ AP NFL: https://apnews.com/hub/NFL The Associated Press

Carolina Panthers tight end Ja'Tavion Sanders was taken to a hospital for a neck injury after landing on his head while making a catch late in the first half of Sunday's 30-27 home loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. As Sanders was brought down near the sideline after a 10-yard reception, he was flipped upside down and landed directly on the top of his helmet as he went out of bounds on the tackle by cornerback Trent McDuffie. After receiving attention from the team's medical staff, Sanders was strapped to a backboard and taken off the field on a cart with 40 seconds remaining in the half. He was taken to Atrium Health Carolinas Medical Center in Charlotte for observation and later released Sunday afternoon, according to the team. On the CBS broadcast following halftime, Panthers head coach Dave Canales said Sanders had movement in all his extremities, while extreme precaution was taken because of back tightness. CBS reported he was being examined for a concussion before later amending that to a neck injury. The 21-year-old rookie out of Texas had a team-leading three receptions for the Panthers at the half for 49 yards. In 11 games this season, Sanders has 29 receptions for 302 yards and a touchdown. Sanders was a fourth-round selection in the NFL draft in April. --Field Level MediaASML FINAL DEADLINE: ROSEN, LEADING TRIAL ATTORNEYS, Encourages ASML Holding N.V. Investors with Losses in Excess of $100K to Secure Counsel Before Important Deadline in Securities Class Action – ASMLMazda Australia has announced running model year 2025 (MY25) changes for its entry-level Mazda 2 and CX-3 , focusing on boosting safety amongst other upgrades – though it sees the price of entry up by thousands. The 2025 Mazda CX-3 arguably is the headline act here, with the outgoing base Sport dropped and the Pure becoming the new entry point. Said CX-3 Pure picks up a heap more kit too, including 18-inch gun metal machined alloy wheels, adaptive cruise control and Smart Brake Support – the latter being an enhanced autonomous emergency braking system. The CX-3 Evolve grade also picks up the additional safety and assistance technologies, as well as front fog lights and keyless entry. Moving to the Evolve also brings 18-inch black machined alloys and black leatherette upholstery, which is newly applied to the centre console and door trims. 100s of new car deals are available through CarExpert right now.

It gains 18-inch black alloy wheels and a seven-speaker Bose premium audio system, while the flagship Akari picks up new 18-inch bright finish alloys. Meanwhile, the 2025 Mazda 2 lineup picks up similar upgrades with the Evolve replacing the Pure as the entry point and gaining adaptive cruise as well as Smart Brake Support assistance technologies. Further, the Mazda 2 Evolve scores new 16-inch black metallic alloy wheels. These changes see both model ranges start significantly higher than before with the removal of the outgoing base grades – the CX-3 now starts from $30,370 plus on-road costs and the Mazda 2 from $26,990. That said, the respective Evolve grades see the additional features added for only a few hundred dollars extra. Also notably absent from the upgrade list is the larger 10.25-inch Mazda Connect infotainment system and Mazda Connected Services available overseas. It appears these still remain unavailable to the Japanese brand’s cheapest models in Australia. Both the MY25 Mazda CX-3 and Mazda 2 ranges are on sale now.

It is “increasingly likely” that a nefarious foreign actor is behind the mysterious ailment known as Havana syndrome , the House Permanent Select Subcommittee on the CIA concluded in an unclassified interim report it released Thursday. The short unclassified version of the report took aim at a prior US Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA) assessment that slapped down suggestions the peculiar ailment was the product of an “intentional weaponized attack” and underscored the need for further study of the matter. “I have discovered that there is reliable evidence to suggest that some Anomalous Health Incidents (AHIs) are the work of foreign adversaries,” Subcommittee Chairman Rick Crawford (R-Ark.) said in a statement. AHIs is the term that the intelligence community uses to refer to the Havana Syndrome, which has plagued hundreds of US military, diplomatic and intelligence personnel since at least late 2016. The subcommittee’s 10-page report concurred with the chairman and determined it was “increasingly likely ... that a foreign adversary is behind some AHIs. It also found “evidence that the ICA lacked analytic integrity and was highly irregular in its formulation.” Exact experiences differ from person to person. Some claim to have heard grating noises before exhibiting symptoms, while others did not hear the noise before falling ill. There have been questions about whether those noises were actually crickets . Symptoms also vary from person to person and include ear pain, memory lapses, fatigue, migraines, dizziness, cognitive problems, hearing loss and more. Despite the differences between those affected, the common thread is that they were all government officials. “The Subcommittee’s investigation has uncovered information illustrative of problems with the ICA’s creation, review, and release. Some of these problems may include a rush to convey a consensus amongst elements of the IC [intelligence community] in an effort to control the narrative,” the report added. As evidence, the subcommittee pointed to the IC Experts Panel, which reviewed the matter before the ICA and declassified its findings in February 2022, finding that Havana Syndrome signs were “genuine and compelling” and that the conditions could be part of external stimuli. The subcommittee did not reveal more specific details in its brief unclassified report about why it believes it is “increasingly likely” that a foreign adversary was behind the enigmatic ailment — but Crawford accused intelligence agencies of having obstructed their probe. “Sadly, the IC has actively attempted to impede our investigation, but we have nonetheless been able to gather significant evidence, and I have reason to believe that its claims of environmental or social factors explaining AHIs are false,” he said. Crawford and his team are working toward finishing up a “substantial and highly classified report” on the matter. The interim report also laid out three main recommendations. The first is to overhaul the intelligence community’s analytical process and demand the IC conduct a “fact-based” assessment on the matter. Second is to ramp up the collection of Havana Syndrome anecdotes to gather more evidence for further study. Lastly, the panel called for codifying stronger medical care for those afflicted by the strange ailment. House Intelligence Committee Chairman Mike Turner (R-Ohio) echoed Crawford’s conclusions noted in the report about a foreign adversary being behind the Havana Syndrome. “I would like to thank Chairman Crawford for his tireless efforts investigating AHIs. I agree with his interim report indicating that foreign adversaries are likely responsible for some AHIs,” he said in a statement.Chuck Woolery, smooth-talking game show host of 'Love Connection' and 'Scrabble,' dies at 83

It is one of the worst socio-economic realities. Its philosophy was based on divide and rule. The indivisible Rwandan society, going by scientific parametres, had to be divided at any cost basing on concocted fallacies. It was to cost Rwandans so much. Political parties at the beginning lacked insight into real intentions of colonialism. In 1960, the transition from what PARMEHUTU called a feudal, colonialist and racist monarchy had become impossible. PARMEHUTU put forward the idea of two confederated regions, one for the Tutsi and the other for the Hutu. They drew examples from the Flemish and Walloons in Belgium. ALSO READ: A glance at socio-political chaos that followed Rudahigwa’s sudden death This was submitted to the United Nations and areas suitable for each group were proposed. To them, the Tutsi and the Hutu differed fundamentally. The advocates of two zones for each group centred on the idea that one group would be eliminated. The racial myth created by the colonialists for ulterior motives had gripped Rwandan politicians. This serialized narrative aimed at charting the objective history of Rwandans. Rwandans from time immemorial lived together intertwining and intermingling. Legend has it that Gihanga, the creator of Rwanda, crisscrossed the region and went up to Bunyabungo (in today’s DR Congo). Wherever he passed and lived he was welcome thanks to his civility and technological know-how. He would be given a daughter in marriage. ALSO READ: How circumstances overtook Kigeli V Ndahindurwa Gihanga was versed in metalwork, woodwork and pottery as well as in hunting, cattle rearing and fire making. He is believed to have had talents in leadership, technology and spirituality. Buhanga, in today’s Musanze District, is believed to have been the cradle of Rwanda nation-state. There he was with all the wives he got across his itinerary. Programmes for most political parties had similarities. The difference lay in internal autonomy and independence. UNAR party wanted independence from Belgian colonialists and with no strings attached. Internal autonomy which meant collaboration with Belgians was rejected. The other three parties wanted the democratization of the country first. Gitera saw independence as a witch hunt of whites. To him it was the same as bringing back supposed forced labour, exploitation and tyranny of the Tutsi. ALSO READ: Mutara III Rudahigwa became Belgian choice after Musinga’s disgrace Political parties began campaigns after the approval of the multiparty system. UNAR opposed colonialism. In the meeting of September 1959 held at Nyamirambo, its leaders discussed national unity, autonomy and independence. In the beginning, UNAR is said to have enjoyed success because of their political stand. This made most chiefs and sub-chiefs join the party. One R. Lemarchand, A French-American political scientist attributed UNAR’s success to nationalism, which united all Rwandans towards progress in all forms. In 1995 he was to write the book: “Rwanda: The Rationality of Genocide”. He will be of help in this series as we progress to project objective Rwandan history. UNAR met strong opposition from the trusteeship administration and to an extent the Catholic church. The Belgian colonial administration used all means to destabilize UNAR. Three influential chiefs in UNAR: M. Kayihura, P. Mungarulire and C. Rwangombwa were transferred maliciously. A pretext was hatched accusing them for having attended UNAR meeting when they were civil servants. The trusteeship administration sabotaged UNAR during campaigns. Bishops Bigirumwami and Perraudin are said to have warned Catholics against UNAR. UNAR thought that those who were not with them were against the country. By demanding immediate independence and breaking ties with the metropolitan power earned them being accused of collaboration with other African nationalists, hence their inclination to communism. Political party activities are yet in progress and more is to come as we move forward.", "author": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Peter Ruti" }, "publisher": { "@type": "Organization", "name": "The New Times", "url": "https://www.newtimes.co.rw/", "sameAs": ["https://www.facebook.com/TheNewTimesRwanda/","https://twitter.com/NewTimesRwanda","https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCuZbZj6DF9zWXpdZVceDZkg"], "logo": { "@type": "ImageObject", "url": "/theme_newtimes/images/logo.png", "width": 270, "height": 57 } }, "copyrightHolder": { "@type": "Organization", "name": "The New Times", "url": "https://www.newtimes.co.rw/" } }
