Whether you’re after a big ticket tech item for under the tree this year, or a just looking for a stocking stuffer for a gadget-obsessed loved one, here are some of our favourite bits of kit that could make for great presents. Gadgets and smart home Clockwise from top: Blink Outdoor 4, Adventures with Interactive LEGO Peach, Google TV Streamer, Ray-Ban Meta Smart Glasses. Google TV Streamer There are now heaps of options for updating a TV with new smarts via a set-top box or HDMI stick, but Google’s latest could just be the best value out there (assuming you’re not already wedded to the Amazon or Apple ecosystems). At around $150 it has all the major apps covered in up to 4K, Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos, it connects to Matter and Thread smart home devices to keep your tech co-ordinated, and the remote is practically unlosable since you can ask Google to make it ring (or press a button on the Streamer). Blink Outdoor 4 As far as security cameras go, Blink’s aren’t super powerful or sophisticated. But they work well and are comparatively cheap. The Blink Outdoor 4, which is $150 but currently going for much less, is great for viewing live on your phone and alerting you when it detects motion. You do need to pay a $50 yearly subscription for it to record clips, but you have the option of backing them up automatically to a USB drive so you won’t lose the clips if you unsubscribe. Ray-Ban Meta Smart Glasses A regular pair of glasses that also contain a camera, microphones, earbuds and buttons, these specs let you take photos and videos, listen to music, answer calls and even stream your point of view, all while leaving your phone in your pocket. You can also talk to the built-in AI to send messages or ask about what you’re looking at. They start at around $450 (it will be extra if you need prescription lenses put in). Adventures with Interactive LEGO Peach / Mario / Luigi I’ve been hesitant to embrace Lego sets that have a bunch of tech and batteries and screens, especially for kids, as regular plastic bricks remain such an engaging toy for unstructured play. But the Lego Mario sets – where you build courses and then run through them with a battery-powered character that reacts to your creations – have proven it can be done right. There are loads of sets that add obstacles and enemies, but any of the three starter sets for this year (going for around $65 each) would be a perfect place to start.

Dyson WashG1 At first glance a mop might not sound like the most exciting Christmas gift, but this one has had a decidedly hi-tech upgrade thanks to Dyson. The $849 WashG1 is easy to set up – and far more convenient than readying a bucket and mop – and removes both liquid and dry debris before smartly self-cleaning on its charging dock.Signal Gold Exercises Option and Upsizes Concurrent Financing, Confirms Conversion of Subscription Receipts and Updated Credit Facility Restructuring Terms
Jennifer Garner’s Dog Birdie Dies: 'Held on' Until Violet Came Home
War is often less seen than heard, and as a ceasefire between Hezbollah and Israel came into effect on Wednesday morning, Ibrahim Najdi marveled at the absence of one particular sound: the buzz of Israeli drones that had been a near-constant presence in Beirut over the last few months. "You can't hear them, can you? They're gone," he said. He gave a small smile, then picked his way through the mounds of rubble separating him from the remains of his two warehouses. Najdi, a 42-year-old home-supplies merchant, was one of tens of thousands of people Wednesday swarming the Hezbollah-dominated suburbs south of Beirut. He came to take stock of the damage wrought by 70 days of ferocious Israeli bombardment . Though his two warehouses were destroyed in an airstrike two weeks ago, his shop was in a nearby building survived. The blast wave nevertheless tossed all of his stock into a jumble of shower handles and hoses, boxes of masking tape and home repair tools — all covered in fine, metallic-gray dust. "I don't know if I can save any of it," Najdi said. Similar scenes were playing out across the country, as people began the journey to their towns and villages in Lebanon's devastated south. Shortly after the start of the ceasefire at 4 a.m., thousands of cars — many stacked on top with mattresses, suitcases and bags of vegetables — deluged the main highway leading out of Beirut in a reverse exodus that echoed their escape from the south only a few months before. Shelters in the southern city of Saida, a refuge for thousands of displaced, emptied by around 80%, Lebanese authorities say. "I know my house is bombed, but I don't care. We're all going back," said Haidar, 33, who was picking up shawarma sandwiches for his family at a roadside restaurant. Haidar, who did not want to give his full name, was from the village of Khirbet Selm, some 9 miles north of the Lebanese-Israeli border. He had already been hours on the road with his wife and two children in his rugged-looking SUV, but was intent on going on — even though he didn't know where the family would sleep. "We'll figure it out. Allah's earth can fit us all," he said. The ceasefire agreement , which came after intense mediation by the U.S. and France, was approved by Lebanon's government on Wednesday morning. It stipulates that Israeli troops conduct a phased withdrawal from south Lebanon over the next 60 days, while Hezbollah pulls back its fighters to north of the Litani River, a natural boundary that lies some 20 miles north of the border. According to the plan, around 5,000 Lebanese soldiers will take their place, Lebanese officials say. The Lebanese army said in a statement on Wednesday that it had begun "to reinforce its deployment" south of the Litani and would "extend state authority" in coordination with U.N. peacekeeping forces. (The Lebanese army remained neutral in the fight between Israel and Hezbollah.) Despite the calm on Wednesday, there were moments that highlighted the fragility of the truce. Israeli troops fired warning shots at people trying to approach their positions in southern villages from which they had yet to withdraw, the Israeli military said. Later, it imposed a nighttime curfew over much of south Lebanon and warned civilians not to return to their homes before being instructed to do so. Despite those reminders that the war is not fully resolved, many Lebanese were jubilant. Motorists driving through Beirut suburbs honked their horns as they drove in impromptu motorcades, while others waved flags and fired celebratory shots into the air. Many walked the streets, shaking their heads in amazement as they raised their smartphones to film the destruction. The war between Israel and Hezbollah, an Iran-backed Lebanese armed group began last year after Palestinian militant faction Hamas attacked southern Israel, killing 1,200 people. The next day, Hezbollah began launching rockets into northern Israel, saying it was acting in support of Hamas and Palestinians in Gaza Strip. Israel and Hezbollah continued trading fire over the last year in an escalating tit-for-tat conflict that saw tens of thousands of people evacuated from both sides of the border. In September, Israel intensified its attacks on Hezbollah. It launched a punishing airstrike campaign on Lebanon's south, east and parts of the capital where Hezbollah holds sway, and invaded areas of Lebanon's south in what it said was a bid to destroy Hezbollah infrastructure. Since last October, more than 3,800 people have been killed in Lebanon, a quarter of them women and children, according to Lebanese health authorities; almost 16,000 have been injured. Israeli authorities say 45 civilians have been killed in Hezbollah attacks, and at least 73 soldiers killed in combat in south Lebanon, the occupied Golan Heights and northern Israel. Najdi, the merchant, was happy that the ceasefire was holding, but it was also bittersweet as he contemplated the difficult months ahead. "I was making something, building something. At 45 I thought I would slow down, take it easy," he said. He added that he had experienced five wars in his lifetime, the first — in 1982 — when he was still in diapers. "And now this one. I have to start again from nothing." More than a million people displaced in the fighting over the last year share his fate, with the World Bank estimating in November that nearly 100,000 housing units have been partially or completely destroyed, while the total cost of damage amounts to roughly $8.5 billion. It remains unclear how Lebanon — which before the war was suffering a multiyear financial crisis that had eviscerated the economy and left most of its population under the poverty line — intends to go about the reconstruction. International aid groups have urged governments to help, said Juan Gabriel Wells, Lebanon country director for the International Rescue Committee aid group. "It is vital that the international community now also invest in Lebanon's recovery," he said in a statement on Wednesday. "These efforts are not only about rebuilding infrastructure; they are also critical to restoring dignity and hope to families who have lost everything." The Lebanese government has yet to formulate concrete plans, officials said. "You know we were so busy, all of us, with the ceasefire," said Lebanese Foreign Minister Abdallah Bou Habib at a conference in Rome on Tuesday, a few hours before the truce. "Did we think very much about the day after? No." ©2024 Los Angeles Times. Visit latimes.com . Distributed by Tribune Content Agency, LLC.Sean “Diddy” Combs will stay behind bars this Thanksgiving. After the Bad Boys Records owner’s legal team submitted the third appeal to have him released from the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, New York, ahead of his May 5 trial, the judge denied his motion for bail, according to NBC News. The Nov. 27 ruling said no conditions will reasonably assure the safety of the community. The judge’s decision comes after two previous appeals from Combs’ legal team asking for him to be released from federal custody and a Nov. 22 court appearance which saw the 55-year-old and his legal team ask for a release once more. Combs’ lawyer Marc Agnifilo suggested during the court appearance, per NBC News , that Combs—who has pleaded not guilty to federal charges related to racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking after his Sept. 17 arrest—should be relocated to a three-bedroom apartment on Manhattan’s Upper East Side, where he will be guarded by a private security company, Patriot Security, and only allowed to call his attorneys. Agnifilo’s suggested parameters for Combs’ release would allow his family—including his children Quincy , 33, Justin , 30, Christian “King,” 26, Chance , 18, twins Jessie and D’Lila , 17 and Love Sean , 23 months—to be permitted to visit the residence, per NBC News. In his argument, Agnifilo cited another high-profile case involving Abercombie & Fitch’s CEO Mike Jeffries , who was charged with running a sex trafficking ring last month—including one count of sex trafficking and 15 counts of prostitution. Jeffries pleaded not guilty and was released on a $10 million bond as he awaits trial. He is currently subjected to home confinement with GPS monitoring, per Reuters . Meanwhile, the prosecution argued that Combs’ recent request for release could be “dangerous.” “He is paying his way out of custody,” prosecutor Christy Slavik said during the Nov. 22 court hearing, “And continues to flout the rules, he is a risk of flight, a danger to the community, he’s obstructing and trying to subvert the integrity of these proceedings.” Prosecutors also argued that Combs had been “witness tampering” behind bars during the court appearance, per NBC News. In a later 13-page document filed by U.S. Attorney Damian Williams Nov. 25 and obtained by the outlet, the prosecution argued further against the release of the rapper. Williams’ filing alleged that Combs had “blatantly flouted the law instructing family members and third parties to contact multiple potential victims and witnesses by using unauthorized means of communication” while in federal custody. The filing also alleged that Combs was behind a “social media campaign” for his birthday Nov. 4, which saw all of his children share a video in which they called their father in prison, including Sean Love leading a rendition of “Happy Birthday” in front of a cake. The prosecution argued that the Instagram post was “for the express purpose of influencing the jury.” Further, the prosecution argued that the parameters of Combs’ potential release do not protect “future violence and obstruction,” particularly the musician using a private security firm in the apartment, noting that Combs “simply cannot be trusted.” Combs’ attorney Alexandra Shapiro later responded to the filing, saying that his birthday post was “entirely innocuous” and adding that the rapper is already “drowning in a sea of negative publicity,” and that his social media posts—as well as any public statement—fall under his First Amendment rights. Keep reading to untangle all of Combs’ legal troubles. Search Warrants Executed on Sean "Diddy" Combs' L.A. and Miami Properties Federal agents with Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) executed search warrants at Sean “Diddy” Combs ’ Los Angeles and Miami properties on March 25, multiple law enforcement sources confirmed to NBC News . The sources told the outlet the warrant was out of the Southern District of New York, and a spokesperson for HSI New York confirmed to E! News it “executed law enforcement actions as part of an ongoing investigation, with assistance from HSI Los Angeles, HSI Miami, and our local law enforcement partners.” Law enforcement sources told NBC News the music mogul was in the Miami area when the search warrants were executed. News about the investigation broke after Combs faced allegations of sexual misconduct in lawsuits filed by multiple accusers starting in November, with the musician denying the allegations. “Sickening allegations have been made against me by individuals looking for a quick payday,” he wrote in a December statement posted on Instagram . “Let me be absolutely clear: I did not do any of the awful things being alleged. I will fight for my name, my family and for the truth.” Diddy’s Attorney Speaks Out The day after HSI executed the search warrants at Combs' L.A. and Miami properties, his lawyer spoke out . "Yesterday, there was a gross overuse of military-level force as search warrants were executed at Mr. Combs' residences," attorney Aaron Dyer said in a March 26 statement to E! News. "There is no excuse for the excessive show of force and hostility exhibited by authorities or the way his children and employees were treated." Dyer noted Combs “was never detained but spoke to and cooperated with authorities.” “Despite media speculation, neither Mr. Combs nor any of his family members have been arrested nor has their ability to travel been restricted in any way,” his lawyer's statement continued. “This unprecedented ambush—paired with an advanced, coordinated media presence—leads to a premature rush to judgment of Mr. Combs and is nothing more than a witch hunt based on meritless accusations made in civil lawsuits.” And Dyer expressed Combs' intent to defend himself. “There has been no finding of criminal or civil liability with any of these allegations,” he added. “Mr. Combs is innocent and will continue to fight every single day to clear his name.” Details About the Raid Revealed As for what actually went down during the searches, multiple law enforcement sources familiar with the warrant told NBC News authorities with the Department of Homeland Security seized phones from Combs’ home in Miami before he was scheduled to travel to the Bahamas, and several sources familiar with the matter added that guns were discovered during the search . One source familiar with the matter also told NBC News three women and one man were interviewed by prosecutors and investigators from the Southern District of New York about allegations of sex trafficking, sexual assault, the solicitation and distribution of illegal narcotics and firearms purportedly tied to Combs. Diddy’s Associate Brendan Paul Arrested on Suspicion of Drug Possession On the same day the search warrants were executed at Combs’ Miami and Los Angeles properties, one of his associates, Brendan Paul , was arrested by the Miami-Dade police on suspicion of drug possession, a law enforcement source familiar with the matter told NBC News . According to the Miami-Dade arrest affidavit obtained by the outlet, Paul was taken into custody for allegedly possessing suspected cocaine and suspected marijuana candy. Prison records obtained by NBC News show Paul was released on March 26 after posting bond. “We do not plan on trying this case in the media,” Paul’s attorney Brian Bieber said in a statement obtained by the outlet, “all issues will be dealt with in court.” In May, Paul accepted a plea deal, with his lawyer Bieber telling People , "Brendan accepted the prosecutor’s offer to permit his entry into the diversion program which, after completion, the case against him will be dismissed in its entirety." Diddy Arrested in New York He was arrested in the lobby of a New York hotel on Sept. 16, 2024, according to NBC News. It's unclear what Combs has been charged with and if the arrest has any potential connection to the raids. “We are disappointed with the decision to pursue what we believe is an unjust prosecution of Mr. Combs by the U.S. Attorney’s Office," his lawyer Marc Agnifilo said in a statement to E! News. "He is an imperfect person but Is not criminal. To his credit Mr. Combs has been nothing but cooperative with this investigation and he voluntarily relocated to New York last week in anticipation of these charges." Diddy Charged With Sex Trafficking & Racketeering After Combs was arrested based on the sealed indictment, the indictment was unsealed on Sept. 17. The 54-year-old was charged with racketeering conspiracy; sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion; as well as transportation to engage in prostitution, according to court documents obtained by NBC News. The indictment alleged Combs “abused, threatened, and coerced women and others around him to fulfill his sexual desires, protect his reputation, and conceal his conduct” for more than a decade, with prosecutors saying the purported behavior started around 2008. "To do so," the documents stated, "Combs relied on the employees, resources, and influence of the multi-faceted business empire that he led and controlled—creating a criminal enterprise whose members and associates engaged in, and attempted to engage in, among other crimes, sex trafficking, forced labor, kidnapping, arson, bribery, and obstruction of justice." According to NBC News , Combs pleaded not guilty and was denied bail . “He’s going to fight this with all of his energy and all of his might,” his attorney Marc Agnifilo told reporters outside the courthouse prior to the arraignment, “and the full confidence of his lawyers." Diddy Is Held Without Bail in New York Facility Following his arrest, Combs was held at the Brooklyn Metropolitan Detention Center where he was denied a $50 million bond. The music mogul was also placed on suicide watch, which a source told E! News is a customary procedure for high-profile inmates. He was since taken off. He was assigned the same area of the jail as cryptocurrency fraudster Sam Bankman-Fried, a source told NBC News. Comedian Jeff Wittek Says He Attended "Freak Off" Comedian Jeff Wittek , 34, came forward Sept. 29 to say he attended one of Diddy's "freak off" parties around 2010 in a Miami mansion. "It was like eight stories high and it just kept going up," Wittek said on Jeff FM , "and the higher you went, the weirder s--t was going on." " I saw live sex happen that night," he continued. "That's the first time I saw that happen ever in my life. And did I partake? No, but I got f--king drunk there." As Wittek put it, "It's just crazy. I was literally there. I lived through it." Diddy Accused of 120 New Sexual Assault Cases In an Oct. 1 press conference, attorney Tony Buzbee detailed that 120 people had come forward with new sexual assault allegations against the rapper. The allegations against Combs, Buzbee noted in a press conference with NBC News, include, "violent sexual assault or rape, facilitated sex with a controlled substance, dissemination of video recordings, sexual abuse of minors." A lawyer for the rapper, Erica Wolff , later responded to the allegations, emphasizing that Combs maintains his innocence. “He cannot address every meritless allegation in what has become a reckless media circus," she said. " That said, Mr. Combs emphatically and categorically denies as false and defamatory any claim that he sexually abused anyone, including minors." Diddy Accused of Abusing Minors One of the 120 accusers was only 9 years old when they were allegedly assaulted by Combs, their lawyer Tony Buzbee said in an Oct. 1 press conference, per NBC News. According to the attorney, “25 of the accusers were minors at the time of the alleged incidents." Diddy's Mom Janice Small Combs Defends the Rapper “It is heartbreaking to see my son judged not for the truth, but for a narrative created out of lies,” Janice’s attorney Natlie G. Figgers shared in a statement on her behalf to The Hollywood Reporter Oct. 6. “To bear witness what seems to be like a public lynching of my son before he has had the opportunity to prove his innocence is a pain too unbearable to put into words. Like every human being, my son deserves to have his day in court, to finally share his side, and to prove his innocence.” Beyoncé and Jay-Z's Lawyer Calls Out Piers Morgan Over Diddy Comparisons Beyoncé and Jay-Z 's lawyer spoke out after Piers Morgan 's TV guest Jaguar Wright claimed the couple had more “victims” than Diddy. "There’s rumors, and then there’s nonsense, and this is one step further,” lawyer Alex Spiro told TMZ Oct. 9. “This is a formal and pointed accusation of something.” Their attorney told Piers to “remove that false accusation," which the host later did and apologized. “As I noted in the moment," Piers said on his Oct. 8 show, "they were not present to respond or defend themselves. But now they have: their lawyer has contacted us to say those claims are totally false and have no basis in fact.”
