NEW ORLEANS (AP) — New Orleans tight end Taysom Hill is likely to miss the rest of the season after injuring his knee in the Saints' loss to the Los Angeles Rams. “It looks like an ACL tear,” interim coach Darren Rizzi said Monday. “He’ll probably get a second opinion, but it looks like it will be season-ending.” Hill, who is listed at tight end but plays a variety of roles, was carted off the field after taking a hard hit to his left knee while converting a fourth down on a direct snap in the Saints’ 21-14 loss Sunday to the Rams. The injury came one game after he'd posted a career-best 138 yards rushing and scored three touchdowns in a victory over Cleveland. He also has lined up at quarterback and running back, as well as playing special teams. “It means everybody else has to step up,” Rizzi said. “He fills so many roles, so there are going to be a lot of different guys that have to be a part of the solution there. It’s hard to sit here and tell you we are going to replace Taysom. You can’t. He’s a phenomenal person, player, leader and captain. It’s a big loss." Hill is the third key offensive player the Saints have lost. He joins leading wide receivers Chris Olave, who suffered a concussion in Week 9 and has not played since, and Rashid Shaheed, who is out for the year after tearing a meniscus in Week 7. Rizzi said guard Nick Saldiveri also might miss the remaining five games after injuring his left knee in the fourth quarter one series before Hill. Without Hill, though, the Saints’ quest to get back in the NFC South race became even tougher. At 4-8, they trail Atlanta and Tampa Bay by two games. Hill has 99 catches, 437 carries, 302 passes, 44 touchdowns, 19 tackles and one blocked kick in seven years with the Saints. “I don’t know if I can compare Taysom to anybody else that I’ve ever coached,” Rizzi said. “There’s not a guy that comes to mind that has been able to do all the different things he’s been able to do just in one game, forget about his career." Alvin Kamara had his third 100-yard rushing game of the year and is 106 yards away from the first 1,000-yard season of his eight-year career. He needs only 39 more yards to set a career high. His 206 carries are the third most in his career. Los Angeles averaged 5.4 yards per carry, finishing with 156 yards. Rams running back Kyren Williams said they knew at halftime they would win if they stuck to the ground game, and he carried seven times on the opening series of the third quarter as they took the lead. The Saints have allowed 5.1 yards per carry for the season — tied for last with the New York Giants. Signed in late October after Shaheed’s season-ending surgery, Marquez Valdes-Scantling has become Derek Carr’s go-to receiver for big plays. His 28-yard touchdown catch in the fourth quarter was the Saints’ longest gain of the day and his fourth score in the past three games. Tight end Foster Moreau, a reliable performer all year, could not handle Rams outside linebacker Jared Verse on the Saints’ final offensive snap, allowing him to hit Carr as he released a pass on fourth-and-3 from the Los Angeles 9 with New Orleans trailing by 7. Although the news was bad for Hill and Saldiveri, Rizzi said he expected starting center Erik McCoy to play Sunday against the Giants. McCoy was scratched against the Rams after aggravating a groin injury two weeks earlier versus Cleveland in his first game back since missing seven in a row. Rizzi said oft-injured running back Kendre Miller, who has played in two games this year, might return from a hamstring injury Sunday. 2 — The number of sacks for the Saints, not enough to keep Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford from finding his rhythm in the second half. In the Rams’ last five losses, he has been sacked 20 times. In their last five wins, he has been sacked three times. With their NFC South hopes on life support, the Saints travel to face the reeling Giants, who have lost seven in a row. AP NFL: https://apnews.com/hub/nflRide Height Sensor Market Driven by Demand for Immersive Technologies Across IndustriesKozhikode (Kerala), Nov 24 (PTI) Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan on Sunday said, the ruling Left Democratic Front (LDF) performed remarkably well in the bypolls held in the state, despite the Congress-led UDF unleashing a false campaign against the government and joining hands with communal outfits to ensure their victory. He said the LDF achieved a significant victory in the Chelakkara assembly constituency and could increase its vote share in Palakkad segment in the bypolls, the results of which were announced on Saturday. Taking a dig at the opposition front, the CM asked what had happened even after the Congress-led UDF vigorously campaigned that the bypoll would be an evaluation of the state government. Addressing a party programme here, Vijayan said that the UDF made all attempts to wrest the Chelakkara constituency and gave utmost prominence for the constituency during the campaigning. He said the Congress tried to achieve a huge political victory by winning Chelakkara. “Then, what had happened when the results were announced?” Vijayan asked. He also accused the opposition front of joining hands with outfits like SDPI and Jamaat-e-Islami to defeat the LDF in the bypolls held to Palakkad and Chelakkara assembly seats and Wayanad Lok Sabha constituency. If the bypoll result was examined overall, it could be seen that people of the state had stood with the Left government strongly, he said. The UDF candidate could not retain her vote share in Chelakkara, when compared to the performance of the party in the segment in the last Lok Sabha polls. But the LDF candidate could ensure his victory by achieving a remarkable margin, the CM added. Both the LDF and the UDF retained the Chelakkara and Palakkad Assembly seats respectively with a comfortable margin in the bypolls. The Congress won the Wayanad Lok Sabha seat with a thumping margin.

This move by the Commerce Department's Bureau of Industry and Security builds on previous measures aimed at curbing China's ability to develop cutting-edge technologies, particularly artificial intelligence and military applications. The new export controls place 140 manufacturers and investment companies on the Entity List, a U.S. compilation of "foreign individuals, companies, and organizations deemed a national security concern." "The United States has taken significant steps to protect our technology from being used by our adversaries in ways that threaten our national security," National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan said in a statement . The new controls will also block the sale of high-bandwidth memory, which is necessary for artificial intelligence. Semiconductors can be a strategic asset for AI systems, supercomputing, and other technologies for both civilian and military use. Sullivan continued, "As technology evolves, and our adversaries seek new ways to evade restrictions, we will continue to work with our allies and partners to proactively and aggressively safeguard our world-leading technologies and know-how so they aren't used to undermine our national security." According to a U.S. Government Accountability Office report, semiconductors, also known as computer chips, are typically smaller than a postage stamp and are composed of billions of components that can store, move and process data. Advanced semiconductors can be used for artificial intelligence, including in medical diagnosis and for military purposes, such as modeling nuclear explosions. The U.S. has been tightening down on the export controls on semiconductors to China since concerns over U.S. capacity to produce advanced semiconductors domestically when shortages began during the pandemic. This concern resulted in Congress enacting the CHIPS Act of 2022. Chinese foreign ministry spokesperson Lin Jian responded. "This type of behavior seriously violates the laws of market economy and the principle of fair competition, disrupts international economic and trade order, destabilizes global industrial and supply chains, and will eventually harm the interests of all countries," Jian said. Beijing intends to take firm, resolute measures to defend the interests of Chinese companies, he added. Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Export Administration Thea D. Rozman Kendler said, "The PRC's Military-Civil Fusion strategy presents a significant risk that advanced node semiconductors will be used in military applications that threaten the security of the United States, as well as the security of our allies and partners."New Telecom Cyber Security Rules Notified, Govt Can Now Access Traffic Data, But Not Message Content — Details

Charles Barkley Let Everyone Know How He Feels About Trump VotersChief Executive Officer (CEO) of COMEX, Amar A. Babood during his recent visit to Pakistan, underscored the importance of strengthening the economic and cultural ties between Oman and Pakistan. In an interview with APP, Babood emphasized the shared history, culture, and potential that bind the two nations and also focussed on expanding trade, business interactions, and collaborative initiatives, “This is my first visit to Pakistan, and I’ve had the opportunity to visit both Karachi and Islamabad,” said Babood. “We are close neighbors, with just an hour’s distance from Karachi, and we share a deep connection in history, society, and culture. We have been following Pakistan’s developments closely, and now, we are looking to deepen our business and diplomatic relations.” COMEX, one of Oman’s leading organizations in the ICT sector, has long been eyeing Pakistan for its untapped market potential. The two countries, despite having a robust cultural connection, have seen relatively low trade volumes, which Babood believes is an area ripe for growth. “Oman and Pakistan have a lot to offer each other,” he added. “There is great potential, particularly in sectors like ICT, where Pakistan has impressive expertise. Oman’s Vision 2040 underscores the importance of working closely with global partners to unlock these opportunities, and we are eager to explore ways we can collaborate with Pakistan.” Oman is already working closely with the Pakistani Embassy in Muscat to facilitate business-to-business interactions, with a focus on expanding trade in key areas such as ICT, agriculture, and tourism. Babood also highlighted the ongoing GCC-Pakistan Free Trade Agreement negotiations, which are expected to create new avenues for bilateral trade and investment. “Oman is committed to fostering an environment of open trade and business. With the introduction of policies like 100% foreign ownership in certain sectors, we are positioning ourselves as an attractive destination for global investors,” Babood said. “In Pakistan, we see a unique opportunity to tap into a vast and growing market, especially with its strong agricultural and tourism sectors. We are also exploring joint ventures that will benefit both countries.” During his trip, Babood attended the IDEAS Expo 2024, where he interacted with Pakistani ministers for Energy, Science and Technology, as well as various entrepreneurs. The event provided valuable insights into new business trends, especially in sectors like AgriTech, which Babood sees as a key area for future cooperation. “Pakistan is making significant strides in AgriTech, and Oman can learn a great deal from these innovations,” he remarked. “Likewise, Oman’s tourism sector is evolving rapidly, with a growing emphasis on sustainable tourism and the protection of indigenous culture. There’s potential for collaboration in cultural tourism, which will benefit both our nations.” Oman is also increasingly focused on green energy, particularly solar power and green hydrogen, as part of its commitment to renewable energy. Babood mentioned that while Oman is a late developer in the renewable energy sector, it has made substantial progress in solar energy and is now prioritizing green hydrogen as a critical area of focus. “We believe that green hydrogen will play a major role in the future of energy, and Oman is keen to explore this sector further,” he explained. “Our investment tools are designed to make it easier for businesses to enter these emerging sectors, which will contribute to both national and regional sustainability goals.” Looking ahead, Babood reaffirmed Oman’s strategic role in fostering cooperation across the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) and beyond. He pointed out that Oman’s diplomatic ties with various nations, including Egypt and Qatar, allow it to play a vital role in resolving regional conflicts and fostering peace. “As a nation, Oman values its neutrality and diplomatic relations. We are proud to be a bridge between nations, fostering peace, stability, and prosperity in the region,” Babood concluded. “We look forward to continued cooperation with Pakistan, as we work together to realize the untapped potential in trade, business, and culture.” COMEX is a leading Omani company specializing in information and communication technology (ICT). With a focus on fostering innovation and digital transformation, COMEX is committed to building bridges between businesses and governments to drive economic growth and technological advancement in Oman and beyond.

STILLWATER, Okla. – Jane was perhaps only two days away from death when she wobbled out to meet the people who would help her live her best life and become a superstar. Jane was a diminutive potbelly pig who was stuck and neglected in a hoarding situation. Keeping herself small in a dirty hovel, her hooves were so long they curled under and she could barely walk. Her skin was scaly and hard from untreated mange and a tumor the size of a cantaloupe hung from her body. Jane, a pink and black pig, also had cancer. Somehow she survived her situation and awoke one morning to find people who crowded about her in consternation – people who would then care for her physically and emotionally until the end of her life. The Misfits of Oz had taken one look at her and decided she would have a beautiful life from then on, no matter what it took. As she rehabilitated and battled cancer, the world then rallied around Jane. People from more than 30 countries had breakfast with Jane on social media, watched her fight disease and wore T-shirts that said “Strong Like Jane.” Now a book has been published about the little pig and her resilience, her dreams, her smile and how she inspired people around the globe – "Jane's Squad" – in a movement called #StrongLikeJane. Jane is sadly gone, but the woman who initially helped her, Shanda Harris, and her “Misfits” remain. Next week, they will travel from the mountains of New Mexico to a new farm in Yale in Payne County. There are 41 pigs, eight dogs, three cats, one goat and one sheep who will be new residents of the state as they move by trailer, truck and van from the snow to the plains. The Misfits of Oz Farm Sanctuary offers safe place for neglected or abused farm animals. It is a nonprofit sanctuary where animals get to live out their natural lives. While many rescue organizations help dogs and cats, few are able to handle large animals, which require different care. And many with Oz have special needs. While often animals are “rescued,” sanctuaries differ from rescue groups – those who end up with Oz usually are there to stay, not find new places to live. Best Friends, one of the largest animal sanctuaries in the country, works toward the goal of “no kill” for all animals as part of its mission, as does the Misfits. Best Friends has published statistics regarding animals that come from shelters or go through rescue. About 108 million owned dogs live in the U.S. That means an average of 1.56 dogs per household; in the U.S., 69 million (54%) households have a dog; and there has been a 49% increase in households with dogs in the past 10 years. About 79 million owned cats live in the U.S. That means: there’s an average of 1.74 cats per household; in the U.S., 45.3 million (35%) households have a cat; there has been a 17% increase in households with cats in the past 10 years. In 2021, 4.6 million cats and dogs entered animal shelters in the U.S. Of those, about 355,000 dogs and cats were killed. Most people surrender their companion animals to shelters for reasons other than a pet’s behavior: housing (specifically, moving), finances and caregiver or family health/death account for more than a third of animals entering shelters. Cats and dogs are surrendered to animal care because of: too many animals, 16.1% (often the result of not spaying and neutering) housing, 13.7%; inancial, 7.2%; caretaker or family health/death, 10.1%; and non-aggressive behavior/personality, 7.8%. There are 4,064 animal shelters in the U.S., of which 2,133 – 52% – are no-kill. That’s up from 24% in 2016. There is not as much data on saving, killing and rehoming numbers for farm animals, though Harris said they endure the same abuse, hoarding, neglect and starvation as smaller companion animals. Armed with this knowledge, the Misfits took on their mission and now provide compassion and care for larger animals. Harris said she wishes they did not have to exist, but it is clear too many animals that need their help. Harris said they have come to Oklahoma for the specialized vet care OSU can offer; the weather, since pigs have short legs that make moving about in snow tough, she said; and hopefully the support of their new, local community. They run mostly with the help of volunteers and by donations. Harris began the Misfits when she lived in Kansas – the “Oz” part of Misfits – in 2012. In 2015, she took in her first pig, then second and third pig and realized she loved the work of providing a safe home for these large animals, and teaching others about connection to animals. There are no such things as “micro-pigs,” Harris said; they are simply potbelly pigs that are starved. She knows being in farm country with farm animals used as food can sometimes be a tough sell. As omnivores, people love animals but also eat meat – however it must go from being farmed to their plates, so this creates an uncomfortable place in their minds when they learn about meat farming (the term is cognitive dissonance). The paradoxical question then exists: how do people care for animals, and use them as food, then, and should they? While the Misfits main mission is to provide safe haven, they also help people answer that question for themselves, Harris said. Harris herself is vegan, which was a decision she made, she said, after caring for and loving the pigs. The Misfits have already connected with a few vegan groups in Oklahoma and recently participated in a vegan event in Oklahoma City. “We do and try to promote veganism through advocacy, and teach why these animals matter ... but we are understanding, patient and kind in our approach ... as much as you love your cats and dogs, that’s how we feel about these animals," she said. "They are more than food, they are a face with soul ... they are sentient beings and we are trying to open that door so people can understand and make a connection.” The connection is subtle – like sharing Jane’s story with the thousands who watched her transform from a broken pig into one that healed and was full of love. Connection comes also in helping future veterinary medicine students to see, in part, what their future could be like working with farm animals – specifically pigs, Harris said. The group strongly advocates for veterinary care for all animals as another part of its mission. “I’m really passionate about vet care for large animals ... pigs and cows and ducks and chickens – that is one of the reasons why we wanted to be so close, to be close to people interested in large animal care where they can volunteer and be on site to see vaccinations and hoof trims, where they can see piglet age to 1,000 pound pigs and learn proper handling," Harris said. The Misfits have already held one volunteer event to help get the new site ready for the animals coming. They hope to hold a tour or luncheon in mid-December. To find the Misfits of Oz, go to their Facebook, Instagram or website, misfitsofoz.org/ , and to read the book “Strong Like Jane: The True Story of a Courageous Potbelly Pig” shop online or through the group’s website. Part of the book’s proceeds go to help the sanctuary. Anyone wishing to be a volunteer can contact the group through social media or on their website.AP News Summary at 10:21 a.m. EST
