Published Tue, 05 Nov 2024 12:24:36 GMT
On the Titans’ seventh play from scrimmage Friday, Patriots rookie Marte Mapu flew up from his safety position to make a tackle over the middle.He whiffed.Of course he did.Mapu spent most of this summer hunting receivers and ball carriers in a red, non-contact jersey as he recovered from February surgery to fix a torn pectoral muscle. During team periods at practice, he would sprint to stop the ball and then … halt himself. He needs more live reps.Mapu didn’t engage in full-contact drills until a week ago at Green Bay, where he participated in joint practices but sat out the preseason game. His game-day drought ended Friday in Tennessee. Over 33 defensive snaps in the Pats’ preseason finale, Mapu missed two tackles on six attempts. Over time, a 33% missed tackle rate would drop any NFL defender on the street.But not Mapu. He’s a rookie brimming with potential and intrigue, a hybrid linebacker/safety the Patriots seem intent on shoehorning somewhere and ...Egypt, Ethiopia and Sudan resume negotiations over a disputed dam

CAIRO (AP) — Egypt, Ethiopia and Sudan resumed their years-long negotiations Sunday over the controversial dam Ethiopia is building on the Nile River’s main tributary, officials said.The resumption of talks came after President Abdel Fattah el-Sissi and Ethiopia Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed said last month that they aim to reach within four months an agreement on the operation of the $4.6 billion Grand Ethiopian Renaissance Dam on the Blue Nile. The Blue Nile meets the White Nile in Sudan’s capital of Khartoum, before winding northward through Egypt to the Mediterranean Sea.Egypt fears a devastating impact if the dam is operated without taking its needs into account. It called it an existential threat. The Arab world’s most populous country relies almost entirely on the Nile to supply water for agriculture and its more than 100 million people. About 85% of the river’s flow originates from Ethiopia.The Egyptian Irrigation Ministry announced the new round of talks in Cairo.

WASHINGTON (AP) — With Donald Trump facing felony charges over his attempts to overturn the 2020 election, the former president is flooding the airwaves and his social media platform with distortions, misinformation and unfounded conspiracy theories about his defeat.It’s part of a multiyear effort to undermine public confidence in the American electoral process as he seeks to chart a return to the White House in 2024. There is evidence that his lies are resonating: New polling from The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research shows that 57% of Republicans believe Democrat Joe Biden was not legitimately elected as president.Here are the facts about Trump’s loss in the last presidential election:REVIEWS AND RECOUNTS CONFIRM BIDEN’S VICTORYBiden’s victory over Trump in 2020 was not particularly close.

Published Tue, 05 Nov 2024 12:24:36 GMT
VATICAN CITY (AP) — Pope Francis on Sunday described his visit later this week to Mongolia, the first-ever pilgrimage by a pontiff to the east Asian country, as a much-desired occasion to encounter a “noble, wise” people. Speaking to the public in St. Peter’s Square, Francis said the trip would also be an opportunity to embrace the Catholic community there, describing the church in Mongolia as “small in numbers but lively in faith and great in charity.” The pilgrimage is also an opportunity “to meet up close with a noble, wise people,” he said. Francis departs on Thursday, returning to Rome four days later. There are fewer than 1,500 Catholics in Mongolia, where some 3.2 million people live in one of the world’s least densely populated countries. The pope said Mongolia has a great religious tradition that “I will have the honor to know,” especially in the context of an inter-religious event during the trip on Sept. 3. The largest percentage of Mongolia’s people are...Russia says it confirmed Wagner leader Prigozhin died in a plane crash

Russia’s Investigative Committee said Sunday that it has confirmed that Yevgeny Prigozhin, founder of the mercenary group Wagner, was killed in a plane crash.Committee spokeswoman Svetlana Petrenko said in a statement that forensic testing identified all 10 bodies recovered at the site of Wednesday’s crash and the findings “conform to the manifest” of the plane. The statement didn’t offer any details as to what might have caused the crash.Russia’s civil aviation authority earlier this week said Prigozhin, along with some of his top lieutenants, were on the list of the passengers and crew members on board the plane.Prigozhin made his name as the profane and brutal mercenary boss who in June mounted an armed rebellion that was the most severe and shocking challenge to Russian President Vladimir Putin’s rule. The 62-year-old’s extraordinary journey took him from prisoner and hot dog vendor to elegant St. Petersburg restaurateur, and then ...Latest news
