(AP) — Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has flown to Florida to have dinner with President-elect Donald Trump at his Mar-a-Lago club after Trump threatened to impose sweeping tariffs on Canadian products. Joining Trump and Trudeau at dinner were Trump's picks for commerce secretary, interior secretary and national security adviser, and the three men's wives. From the Canadian side, the dinner guests included Public Safety Minister Dominic LeBlanc, whose responsibilities include border security. Trump’s transition did not respond to questions about what they had discussed or whether the conversation alleviated Trump’s concerns about the border. A smiling Trudeau declined comment upon returning to his West Palm Beach hotel late Friday. Emboldened 'manosphere' accelerates threats and demeaning language toward women after US election CHICAGO (AP) — An emboldened fringe of right-wing “manosphere” influencers has seized on Donald Trump’s presidential win to justify and amplify misogynistic derision and threats online. Many have appropriated a 1960s abortion rights rallying cry, declaring “Your body, my choice,” and have been using it publicly on college campuses and even in public schools. While none of the current online rhetoric is being amplified by Trump, experts say many young men see the former president’s return to the White House as vindication of their views on women. For many women, the words represent a worrying harbinger of what might lie ahead as some men perceive the election results as a rebuke of reproductive rights and women’s rights. Syrian insurgents are inside Aleppo in a major setback for Assad as government forces regroup BEIRUT (AP) — Thousands of Syrian insurgents have fanned out inside Syria's largest city Aleppo a day after storming it with little resistance from government troops. Syria's army said troops have redeployed to prepare for a counteroffensive. Witnesses said insurgents were seen Saturday at landmarks in Aleppo for the first time since 2016, when they were expelled by government forces backed by Russia and Iran. The surprise offensive is a major embarrassment for Syrian President Bashar Assad, who has regained total control of the city eight years ago. Israeli strike in Gaza allegedly kills workers with World Central Kitchen charity DEIR AL-BALAH, Gaza Strip (AP) — An Israeli airstrike on a car in Gaza has killed five people, according to a senior Palestinian health official. An aid worker says three of the people killed were employees of the charity World Central Kitchen. The charity's aid delivery efforts in Gaza were temporarily suspended earlier this year after an Israeli strike killed seven of its workers. Israel's military says it struck a wanted militant who had been involved in the Hamas attack that sparked the war. In a later statement, it said that the alleged attacker had worked with WCK and it asked “senior officials from the international community and the WCK administration to clarify” how that had come about. Lebanese fisherman hope ceasefire with Israel means normal life returning TYRE, Lebanon (AP) — The ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah is bringing hope for normality back to many in southern Lebanon. That includes fishermen who’ve long launched their single-engine wooden boats into the Mediterranean at dawn. For months, Israel imposed a siege that kept hundreds of fishermen at this ancient Phoenician port ashore. That upended their lives and dealt the industry a major blow. The port siege also cut people off from key ingredients for traditional Lebanese dishes. As war devastated their country, the loss of fish damaged a deep association with home. Now, the possibility of renewed fishing is helping fuel hope. How Brazilian police say Bolsonaro plotted a coup to stay in office SAO PAULO (AP) — Brazil’s Federal Police have formally accused former far-right President Jair Bolsonaro and 36 others of plotting a coup to keep him in office. The plot was allegedly comprised of several components and substantiated by evidence and testimony in the agency's 884-page report. The pieces of the puzzle include laying the groundwork by systematically sowing distrust of the electoral system among the populace. It also includes drafting a decree to give the plot a veneer of legal basis and pressuring top military brass to go along with the plan. Bolsonaro and his main allies have denied any wrongdoing or involvement and accuse authorities of political persecution. More than 100 arrested as Georgian police clash with protesters over suspension of EU talks TBILISI, Georgia (AP) — More than 100 demonstrators were arrested overnight in Georgia as protesters clashed with police following the government’s decision to suspend negotiations to join the European Union, the country’s Interior Ministry said. Friday marked the second straight night of protests after Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze of the country’s ruling Georgian Dream party announced the suspension the previous day. The Associated Press saw protesters in Tbilisi being chased and beaten by police as demonstrators rallied in front of the country's parliament building. The violence follows Georgian Dream’s disputed victory in the Oct. 26 election, which was widely seen as a referendum on the country’s aspirations to join the European Union. Romania's parliamentary vote risks being overshadowed by presidential race chaos BUCHAREST, Romania (AP) — Romanians are preparing to go to the polls in a parliamentary vote that will determine a new government and prime minister to lead the European Union and NATO member country. However, Sunday's vote is sandwiched between a two-round presidential race and is overshadowed by controversies and chaos following the outcome of the first vote. While the president has significant decision-making powers in areas such as national security and foreign policy, the prime minister is the head of the nation’s government. Sunday’s vote will determine the formation of the country’s 466-seat legislature. North Korea's Kim vows steadfast support for Russia’s war in Ukraine SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — North Korean leader Kim Jong Un said his country will “invariably support” Russia’s war in Ukraine as he met Russia's visiting defense chief. A Russia military delegation led by Defense Minister Andrei Belousov arrived in North Korea on Friday as international concerns about the two countries’ expanding cooperation deepened after North Korea sent thousands of troops to Russia. During a Friday meeting, Kim and Belousov reached “a satisfactory consensus” on issues on how to further boost strategic partnership and defend each country’s sovereignty and security interests, state media said. Great Lakes, Plains and Midwest forecast to be hit with snow and dangerous cold into next week BUFFALO, N.Y. (AP) — The first big snow of the season has the potential to bury towns in New York along lakes Erie and Ontario during a hectic holiday travel and shopping weekend. Forecasters says winter storm conditions could persist into next week and cause hazards in the Great Lakes, Plains and Midwest regions. Forecasters predict 4 to 6 feet of blowing and drifting snow could fall in Watertown and other areas east of Lake Ontario through Monday. New York Gov. Kathy Hochul has declared a disaster emergency in affected areas.

INDIANAPOLIS – It’s been four weeks since Indianapolis Colts head coach Shane Steichen announced the postseason was the franchise’s top priority and veteran Joe Flacco would take over as the starting quarterback. The Colts (5-7) have won just a single game since, and 22-year-old Anthony Richardson has been reinstated as the starter. Indianapolis has lost plenty of ground in the playoff chase over the last month, but it’s still got a chance to make a run. The Colts enter the week in ninth place in the AFC, two games behind the Denver Broncos (7-5) for the seventh and final postseason berth. That’s not great math for Indianapolis, and there is little to no margin for error, but with the teeth of the schedule in the rearview mirror, there is hope. The Colts play just one team with a winning record over their final five games. That’s a Dec. 15 date against the Broncos that could ultimately seal the team’s playoff fate. The stretch run begins Sunday on the road against the New England Patriots (3-9) with the bye week to follow. The final three games are at home against the Tennessee Titans (3-8), at the New York Giants (2-9) and at home against the Jacksonville Jaguars (2-9). “I think, right now, where we’re at in the season, with everything set ahead of us, still being in that picture, one game on the road against New England going into the bye, we’ve got a chance to catch our breath and regroup for the last, final run,” linebacker Zaire Franklin said. “I think we’re in a special, unique position to where – why not go on a run? Why not us? I’ve done it before. “To be honest with you, I hate that I’m always in this position, but I’ve been there before, and I think the reality of the situation is that it just takes one. It just takes one play. It just takes one game. It just takes one to get the ball rolling, to get this momentum shifted, to get that energy back and get it rolling and get into the dance. Because I think, at the end of the day, as long as you get into the dance, that’s all that matters.” Franklin was a rookie in 2018 when Indianapolis went 10-1 down the stretch to overcome a 1-5 start and sneak into the postseason with the final berth. The 2021 Colts went 6-1 in November and December to get to 9-6 and position themselves for a playoff spot before losing their final two games in January. And Indianapolis won four straight to end November and begin December last year, enabling itself to force a winner-takes-all battle against the Houston Texans in the regular-season finale. The Colts went 1-3 in November this year, but they have a chance to turn things around in the final full month of the regular season. “Obviously, these last five games will be big,” Steichen said. “Right now we’ve got to take it one day at a time, one meeting at a time, one practice at a time, one game at a time to get to where we want to be at the end of the year. But we know this is a huge week for us coming up before the bye. So the fundamentals, the details, the attention to details, are going to be huge going into this week and then coming back after the bye. Get some guys back hopefully, be ready to roll for that four-game stretch.” If Indianapolis’ fortunes are to turn around again, it will need to begin with the offense. The Colts rank 21st in the 32-team NFL with an average of 20.2 points per game and are 17th in rushing offense and 24th in the passing game. Center Tanor Bortolini (concussion) and wide receiver Josh Downs (shoulder) are among the players in danger of missing the trip to New England, increasing the degree of difficulty for a struggling unit. But improvement in situational details could go a long way toward fixing what fails the offense. Indianapolis ranks 23rd with a 36% conversion rate on third down, and it’s 24th with a 52.8% touchdown rate in the red zone. Those numbers are the keys to finishing drives and putting more points on the scoreboard. “We just need to take advantage of our scoring opportunities, and we need to come away with seven (points) instead of three because we got down there – we just couldn’t finish,” wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. said, referring specifically to last week’s 24-6 loss against the Detroit Lions in which the Colts twice failed to reach the end zone from inside the visitors’ 20-yard line. “If we start putting up sevens instead of threes, then you don’t know what happens, right? The score is a lot closer and football is football and momentum is king, and who knows?”

5 ways GenAI is transforming financial planning for banks

The Sporting News fantasy team is back with our fantasy football sleepers for Week 15. With the fantasy playoffs now underway, it's now more critical than ever to make the correct decisions with the fringe starters in your lineup. The stakes are now at an all-time high and we'll be looking to put together the best lineups possible. Last week, this list was highlighted by Sam Darnold, Jordan Addison, and Jakobi Meyers, all of whom went on to perform at a high level. If fantasy managers had anyone from this group in their lineup, they were likely quite happy with the results. While it's fun to look back to previous successes, the fantasy season moves quickly, and we have to adapt as the weeks progress. Week 15 offers a brand new slate of games with matchups that we can look to exploit in fantasy football. If you don't have time to dive into the outlook for each game, don't worry, we've got you covered. We dove head first into each matchup of the Week 15 slate to pinpoint which situations and matchups we should attack in fantasy football. Three of our fantasy analysts have identified a player at each position. WEEK 15 FANTASY FOOTBALL RANKINGS QBs | RBs | WRs | TEs | D/ST | Kickers Fantasy QB Sleepers for Week 15 Michael O'Hara: Matthew Stafford, Los Angeles Rams — Two offenses that have been banged up all year -- the Rams and 49ers -- are relatively healthy and could deliver a shootout in Week 15. After Puka Nacua and Cooper Kupp returned in Week 8, we have been treated to several vintage Matthew Stafford performances. He's thrown multiple touchdowns in six of seven games, scoring at least 18.9 fantasy points in five of those contests. He's also been fairly efficient during this stretch, completing 65.4 percent of his passes and averaging 7.54 yards per attempt. In a game with a 48.5-point total, we could see Stafford have another big performance on Thursday night. Ed Williams: Bryce Young, Carolina Panthers — Once Young was benched earlier this season for Andy Dalton, many assumed it was just a matter of time before the Panthers moved on from last year's No. 1 overall draft pick. But just the opposite has happened. After Andy Dalton had to miss time after an automobile accident, Young was thrust back into the starting lineup and has made significant strides. If Xavier Leggette had better hands, we might be talking about how the Panthers pulled off the unthinkable upset and beat the Eagles last week. Now, their favored this week hosting the Cowboys -- the first time they've been favored in a game since Dec. 18, 2022. The Cowboys just keep racking up injuries, and now promising linebacker DeMarvion Overshown is out for the rest of this year and potentially all of next year with a torn ACL, MCL, and PCL. Look for Young to pepper Adam Thielen with targets while getting his other receivers in the mix. And Young has also shown he's not afraid to take off and use his legs as well. Vinnie Iyer: Aaron Rodgers, New York Jets — His 300-yard drought ended against the Dolphins as he was locked in with all of his wide receivers for the first time all season. Now he draws the juiciest matchup of them all against the Jaguars, back in Florida with no weather concerns. Fantasy RB Sleepers for Week 15 O'Hara: Isaiah Davis, New York Jets — For much of the year, it was assumed that Braelon Allen would take on a bell cow role if Breece Hall were to miss any time. In reality, it was a split backfield between Allen and fellow rookie Isaiah Davis. Ultimately, Davis played 53 percent of snaps and ran a route on 47 percent of dropbacks. He also played the lone goal line snap last week. Davis will need Hall to miss more time to maintain fantasy relevance, but considering the Jets are eliminated from the playoffs, there will be no rush to get Hall back on the field. Davis holds a solid role that is made up of plenty of receiving work and goal line opportunities; this role is enough to put him in starting consideration in deeper leagues. Williams: Kendre Miller, New Orleans Saints — Kendre Miller was permanently in former head coach Dennis Allen's doghouse. But he has a clean slate with interim head coach Darren Rizzi. In his first game since coming off of IR (a stint only Allen seemed to think Miller needed), Miller immediately saw 10 carries and scored a touchdown. With Kamara already shouldering the biggest workload of his career, it wouldn't be surprising to see 10 carries be Miller's floor moving forward. The Commanders' defense has definitely improved as the season has progressed, but they're not a unit to be feared. With Derek Carr out, the Saints will want to lean heavily on the running game, so Miller should see plenty of work. Iyer: Javonte Williams, Denver Broncos – Just when you think the Broncos are not interested in using him as much vs. Audric Estime and Jaleel McLaughlin (like after a bye) is the exact time to go against that instinct and look that he's their best all-around back to exploit the very favorable rushing and receiving matchup against the Colts. Fantasy WR Sleepers for Week 15 O'Hara: Amari Cooper, Buffalo Bills — Since joining the Bills, Amari Cooper hasn't been much more than a rotational receiver; his route share came in at just 63 percent last week. However, Cooper has shown that he can earn targets alongside Buffalo's other receivers. In five games with the team, Cooper has drawn a target on 29 percent of his routes, a mark that would lead the team across the full season. Last week was a very strong outing for Cooper, drawing 14 targets on 26 routes. In what should be an offensive-minded matchup with the Lions next week, Josh Allen will likely turn to Cooper quite often once again. Even though he doesn't run a full complement of routes, Cooper offers Flex appeal against the defense that allows the 7th-most points per game to opposing receivers. Williams: Adam Thielen, Carolina Panthers — We have his QB listed as a sleeper, so it only makes sense to also go with his No. 1 target. Since returning from a hamstring injury three weeks ago, Thielen looks rejuvenated. He's reached double digit targets in each of the last two weeks, and he eclipsed 100 receiving yards in a game last week against the Eagles for the first time since Week 6 of the '23 season (And he just missed by one yard in Week 13 with 99 yards). Thielen is a wily veteran and will know how to get open against the reeling Cowboys, and Young will surely be looking his way. Iyer: Rome Odunze, Chicago Bears — Odunze was heated up again vs. the 49ers, and that's good timing to face a Vikings' secondary indoors in prime time that struggles plenty with quick, speedy downfield targets. The rookie puts together another strong outing, building on the wideouts'' success in the first meeting. Fantasy TE Sleepers for Week 15 O'Hara: Juwan Johnson, New Orleans Saints — With Taysom Hill out for the year, Juwan Johnson has taken over as the Saints' primary pass-catching tight end. He was successful in that role last week, finishing with 50 receiving yards and a score. Johnson's 16.1-percent target share last week was respectable and he could even push for 20 percent in some games thanks to the lack of talent among New Orleans' receivers. The Saints will face off with the Commanders this week which should lead to a game script where the Saints are dropping back to pass quite often. Johnson should be able to draw a handful of targets and provide serviceable fantasy production if he can convert one of those looks into an explosive play. Williams: Stone Smartt, Los Angeles Chargers — Ideally we'd be plugging in Will Dissly here, as the Bucs give up the 6th-most fantasy points to the tight end position. But Dissly is expected to miss multiple weeks with a shoulder injury. Smartt caught all three of his targets in relief of Dissly Sunday night against the Chiefs. He showed great hands and the ability to get open. With a struggling running game, Justin Herbert will have to throw the ball, and Smartt could surprise people once again with another strong outing. Iyer: Noah Fant, Seattle Seahawks — This play isn't for the "fant" of heart given his limited role in recent weeks, but the Packers have allowed athletic tight ends to stretch the field against them of late. Geno Smith has been ripping it into the middle of the field, and that's where he will have success attacking the Packers. Fantasy Defense Sleepers Week 15 O'Hara: Atlanta Falcons — The Falcons have struggled on the defensive side of the ball all year and were just torched for 42 points by Sam Darnold and the Vikings. Week 15 is a get-right spot for the Falcons, who will face Desmond Ridder and the generally underwhelming Las Vegas offense. This is an offense to target with defensive streamers regardless of that defense's past performance. Williams: Minnesota Vikings — The Vikings played the Bears three weeks ago and gave up 27 points in a tough overtime win. Caleb Williams has shown improvement throughout the season, but he's still not at the level most fantasy managers expected him to be at when they drafted him. With the Vikings coming off a convincing win over the Falcons and with No. 1 seed hopes still alive, Brian Flores' unit should be plenty motivated to come out during Monday Night Football and shut down their division foes. Iyer: Kansas City Chiefs — They've been up and down as a potential fantasy play, but they are definitely "up" with their secondary and pass rush going after Jameis Winston on the road in Cleveland.Life-sized statue of blues legend Rory Gallagher granted planning approval by Belfast City Council
