Consumer Reports survey finds electric vehicle reliability improving but lagging gas modelsBERLIN (AP) — Adam Pemble, an Associated Press video journalist who covered some of the biggest global news of the past two decades, from earthquakes and conflicts to political summits and elections, has died. He was 52. Pemble died Thursday in Minneapolis surrounded by friends and family, according to his friend Mike Moe, who helped care for him in the final weeks of his fight against cancer. Known for bringing stories alive with his camera, Pemble epitomized the best of television news traditions, casting a curious and compassionate lens onto the lives of the people and communities whose stories he told. He joined the AP in 2007 in New York before moving to Prague in 2011 to help launch AP’s first cross-format operation combining photography, text stories and video. He enhanced Eastern European news coverage, creating distinctive stories highlighting the region's culture and society. “Adam was an incredibly talented and passionate journalist and an empathetic storyteller. He had this amazing ability to get anyone to talk to him on camera, which I attribute to the Midwestern charm he embodied throughout his life." said Sara Gillesby, AP’s Director of Global Video and Pemble’s former manager in New York when he joined the AP. "He was the best of us.” Pemble was born in Saint Louis Park, Minnesota, in 1972 and grew up in Minneapolis. After graduating with a degree in mass communications from Minnesota State University Moorhead, he started his journalism career in 1997 at KVLY, a television station in Fargo, North Dakota, and later worked at WCCO in Minneapolis. “He had the skills of the old-school camera people to meet a deadline and turn a beautiful story,” said Arthur Phillips, a cameraman who worked with Pemble at WCCO. “But he had a calling for greater things.” Moving to New York, Pemble covered some of the biggest stories in the city, including the trial of Bernie Madoff, interviews with former Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and with then-real estate developer, now U.S. president-elect, Donald Trump. He went to Haiti to cover the aftermath of the 2010 earthquake, where he captured shocking images of devastation. A few weeks later he was in Vancouver, covering the Winter Olympics. With his transfer to Prague, Pemble quickly became the go-to video journalist deployed to the biggest news events in Europe, interviewing government leaders, covering violent protests, the aftermath of terror attacks and numerous national elections across the continent. “An inquiring mind, a keen eye and a healthy skepticism for those in power who tried to spin away from truth all combined to make Adam’s stories as rich in color as he was in character," said Sandy MacIntyre, former AP head of global video. "Time and again he was asked to do the impossible and without fail he delivered the exceptional.” ”But more than all of that, he was the colleague and friend you wanted by your side because if Adam was there we knew we were going to be the winning team.” As civil unrest rocked Ukraine in 2014, Pemble reported from Kyiv and later Donetsk, where he covered the first Russian-backed demonstrations before spending weeks in Crimea during Russia's annexation of the strategic peninsula. His video reports included the last remaining Ukrainian sailors loyal to Kyiv finally abandoning their ship and coming ashore. With the Russian national anthem playing from a car in the background, his final shot showed two distraught sailors heckled as they walked away. Pemble returned to Ukraine following Russia's invasion of the country in 2022. Among his many assignments was filming the exclusive March 2023 AP interview by Executive Editor Julie Pace with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy as a train shuttled them across Ukraine to cities near some of the fiercest fighting. “Adam showed up to every assignment with enthusiasm, creativity and commitment to his work and his colleagues. He loved what he did, and so many of us at AP are better for having worked alongside him,” Pace said. When not deployed overseas, Pemble set his camera's gaze on his new home in the Czech Republic, offering insight into the traditions and unique stories of Eastern Europe. From Christmas carp fishing at sunrise to graffiti artists in Prague, to the intimate story of a Slovak priest challenging the celibacy rules of the Catholic Church, he brought his unmistakable style. He worked with a traditional large broadcast camera in an era where many video shooters shifted to smaller, lighter cameras. He always put himself in the right place to let reality unfold like “an old school analog painter in an often fast and furious digital age,” former AP cameraman Ben Jary recalled. Pemble's interest in visual storytelling led to experimenting with new technologies, including aerial videography. In 2015, he was the first major news agency camera operator to film live drone footage when reporting on the migration crisis in the Balkans. An avid gardener who planted trees and chilis on his rooftop in Prague, he was adventurous in the kitchen and especially proud of his vegan “meatloaf,” friends said. He loved a seedy dive bar as much as a Michelin restaurant, and foods as varied as charcoal choux pastry with truffle creme and his favorite road trip junk food, Slim Jim’s jerky and Salted Nut Rolls. Pemble’s wit, wisdom, energy and positivity enriched the lives and experiences of those around him, friends and colleagues recalled. “If someone asked me to see a picture of quiet strength and courage, dignity and grace, and most of all kindness, I would show them a picture of a man for all seasons," said Dan Huff, a Washington-based AP video journalist, "I would show them a picture of Adam Pemble."

Concerns over the extent of China-backed Salt Typhoon's intrusions into US telecom networks have prompted the US Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), the National Security Agency (NSA), and the FBI to issue guidance to the sector on addressing the threat. The detailed recommendations come as officials from the authoring agencies this week described victims of the attack — which include Verizon, AT&T, and Lumen — as still working to eradicate the threat actor from their networks. "We cannot say with certainty that the adversary has been evicted, because we still don't know the scope of what they're doing," Jeff Greene, executive assistant director for cybersecurity at CISA, said in a media call this week. "I have confidence that we are on top of it in terms of tracking them down and seeing what's going on, but we cannot, with confidence, say that we know everything," Greene said, according to a transcript of the media call that CISA made available to Dark Reading. Given where most victims are in their investigations, it is "impossible" to predict a timeframe for when they will complete fully evicting the threat actor, he said. Several security experts consider Salt Typhoon's attacks on US telecom infrastructure as one of the most egregious cyber espionage campaigns ever in size and scope. It's unknown how many companies the threat actor has compromised as part of the campaign so far, but known victims include some of the biggest telecom providers in the country, including AT&T and Verizon. The attacks enabled multiple activities, including theft of a large number of call detail records — such as a caller's and receiver's phone numbers, call duration, call type, and cell tower location — of telecom customers. In a smaller number of instances, Salt Typhoon used its presence on telecom provider networks to intercept calls and messages of targeted individuals, which include government officials and politicians. Separately, the threat actor also collected information on an unknown number of individuals who were the subjects of legal national security and law enforcement intercepts . "The continued investigation into the PRC targeting commercial telecom infrastructure has revealed a broad and significant cyber-espionage campaign," an FBI official said on background during this week's media call. "We have identified that PRC-affiliated cyber actors have compromised networks of multiple telecom companies to enable multiple activities. The new guidance for addressing the threat includes recommendations for quickly detecting Salt Typhoon activity, improving visibility, reducing existing vulnerabilities, eliminating common misconfigurations, and limiting the attack surface. The guidelines include a section devoted to hardening Cisco network gear, which the authoring agencies described as a popular target for the attacker in the ongoing campaign. "Right now, the hardening guidance that we put out specifically would make the activities that we've seen across the victims much harder to continue," Greene said. "In some cases, it might result in limiting their access." He described Salt Typhoon actors as employing a variety of tactics to breach victim networks, so response and mitigation approaches will differ on a case by case basis. "These are not cookie-cutter compromises in terms of how deeply compromised a victim might be, or what the actor has been able to do." Green and the FBI official on the media call recommended that individuals concerned about the privacy of their mobile device communications should consider using encrypted messaging apps — examples of which would include WhatsApp and Signal — and encrypted voice communications. "People looking to further protect their mobile device communications would benefit from considering using a cellphone that automatically receives timely operating system updates, responsibly managed encryption, and phishing resistant MFA for email, social media, and collaboration tools," the FBI official said. Trey Ford, chief information security officer (CISO) at Bugcrowd pointed to phishing-resistant multifactor authentication in the new guidance as something that organizations should consider prioritizing. "Everything we can do to raise the cost and work factor for malicious actors and nation state communities helps," he notes. He also recommends that organizations add encryption to all traffic crossing third-party communications infrastructure and leverage apps like WhatsApp and Signal where it makes sense. "Also, I would recommend adding a second factor of authentication, something stronger than SMS, such as Yubikeys, Apple's Secure Element, or pseudo-random code generators like Google Authenticator, Authy, [and] Duo, to all of your online accounts." Chris Pierson, CEO and founder of Blackcloak, perceives the new hardening advice as useful in helping companies in the telecom sector prioritize their controls, remediation, and ongoing assessment activity. The advice to individual consumers and business executives to protect against Salt Typhoon is useful as well, he notes: "From tips on using security messaging as opposed to text/SMS, reducing the likelihood of SIM swapping by using a SIM PIN, and implementing dual factor authentication on key accounts, the guidance makes it easier for key executives and highly targeted persons to protect themselves."

Falcons favored over the Raiders in Monday night matchupThe GOAT is a big fan of superstar Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson. Tom Brady, the seven-time Super Bowl champion who now serves as the lead NFL color commentator for FOX, recently answered a fan question on social media that Vikings fans will want to see. Brady was asked which current NFL wide receiver that he never played with would he most want to throw to. He initially mentioned Cincinnati Bengals star Ja’Marr Chase as an honorable mention, before naming Jefferson as his pick. Here was the GOAT’s full explanation: “He can do everything from any spot on the field. He goes deep. He goes short. He can catch the ball, catch and run, touchdowns, third downs. He’s a ridiculous player. He reminds me so much of my former teammate and Viking: Randy Moss. So if it comes down to choosing only one, he would be the one right now.” If @TomBrady could throw to any current receiver in the league, who would he choose? 👀✈️ pic.twitter.com/BJ6oPuW1MC That’s high praise for Jefferson, who’s been absurdly productive over his first four-plus NFL seasons. He’s averaging 96.8 receiving yards per game overall, which puts him well on pace to have a Moss-like, Hall of Fame career. Moss averaged 70.1 yards per game over his illustrious 17-year career. Jefferson has already clinched his fifth consecutive 1,000-yard season. He accomplished the feat in 2023 (1,074) despite a carousel of quarterbacks and a hamstring injury that limited him to just 10 games. As long as he stays healthy, the Vikings will be a problem for oppositing defenses no matter who is under center.

All rights reserved.Atlanta (6-7) at Las Vegas (2-11) Monday, 8:30 p.m. EST, ESPN BetMGM NFL Odds: Falcons by 4 Series record: Falcons lead 8-7 Against the spread: Falcons 5-8, Raiders 5-8 Last meeting: Falcons beat Raiders 43-6 in Atlanta on Nov. 29, 2020. Last week: Falcons lost to Vikings 42-21; Raiders lost to Buccaneers 28-13 Falcons offense: overall (8), rush (12), pass (2), scoring (19) Falcons defense: overall (23), rush (17), pass (25), scoring (25) Raiders offense: overall (25), rush (32), pass (16), scoring (31) Raiders defense: overall (15), rush (14), pass (15), scoring (30) Turnover differential: Falcons minus-9; Raiders minus-17 Falcons player to watch OLB Arnold Ebiketie has been a key to Atlanta’s suddenly improved pass rush. Ebiketie has three sacks in the past two games, giving him four for the season. Overall, the Falcons have had nine sacks in the past two games. They almost doubled their NFL-low total of 10 through their first 11 games. Raiders player to watch Whoever plays quarterback. Aidan O’Connell injured his left knee Sunday at Tampa Bay, so his availability is unknown. O’Connell is not a mobile quarterback, so if he plays, he likely wouldn’t be as limited as a more athletic player at that position. If Desmond Ridder gets the call, he’ll face the team where he started 13 games last season. Key matchup Falcons QB Kirk Cousins vs. Raiders defense. Cousins has been intercepted the past four games, and he has been picked off six times combined the past two weeks. Las Vegas’ best hope in forcing Cousins into even more mistakes is pressuring, and the Raiders have nine sacks over the past two weeks. They also had two interceptions against the Bucs. Key injuries Falcons: Rookie RB Jase McClellan was placed on injured reserve with a knee injury. The sixth-round pick earlier had missed time with a foot problem and had only 13 carries for 32 yards. RB Carlos Washington Jr. was signed to the active roster from the practice squad as depth behind Bijan Robinson and Tyler Allgeier. ... ILB Troy Andersen (knee) and WR Casey Washington (concussion) did not practice on Thursday. Raiders: RB Alexander Mattison (ankle) is expected to be activated after missing the past three games. CB Nate Hobbs (ankle) hasn’t played since Nov. 3 at Cincinnati. Series notes The Falcons have won the past five meetings. ... Their 37-point victory in the most recent matchup in 2020 was the most lopsided game in the series’ history. ... That game also was the second highest-scoring game by the winning team, behind the then-Oakland Raiders’ 50-19 victory in 1979. Stats and stuff Falcons WR Drake London needs only two catches to pass Calvin Ridley (217) for the most receptions in the first three seasons with Atlanta. ... London has 75 receptions for 866 yards and six touchdowns this season. ... Cousins has an unhealthy ratio of 17 touchdown passes to 15 interceptions. ... The Raiders’ Brock Bowers has caught 87 passes to set an NFL rookie record tight ends record. Sam LaPorta had 86 last season for the Detroit Lions. Bowers also is 67 yards from becoming the third rookie tight end with 1,000 yards, joining Atlanta’s Kyle Pitts in 2021 and the Chicago Bears’ Mike Ditka in 1961. ... DE Maxx Crosby is half a sack from becoming the third Raiders player since 1982 with 60 for his career. The other two are Greg Townsend (107 1/2) and Howie Long (84). ... LB Robert Spillane is one of seven players this season with at least 100 tackles, an interception and a sack. ... Las Vegas has committed 4.86 penalties per game since coach Antonio Pierce took over at midseason last season, best in the league. ... The Raiders have had at least one sack in 31 consecutive games, the third-longest active streak behind the Baltimore Ravens with 51 and Philadelphia Eagles with 41. Las Vegas has nine combined in the past two games, tied for best in the league with the Falcons. Fantasy tip Raiders RB Sincere McCormick has secured the starting job, and he has averaged at least 5.2 yards per carry in each of his past three games. His rushing total keeps increasing, with McCormick gaining 78 yards against the Bucs. Especially given the uncertainty at quarterback, expect the Raiders to rely on McCormick. ___ AP NFL:

Saints’ Bryan Bresee Makes One Of Most Athletic NFL Plays Ever To Win Game For New OrleansRangers 1-1 Tottenham PLAYER RATINGS: Who played his heart out? Which superstar was hooked at half-time? Who won the managerial battle? Click here to visit the Scotland home page for the latest news and sport By PAUL FORSYTH Published: 22:57, 12 December 2024 | Updated: 23:18, 12 December 2024 e-mail 60 shares View comments A second-half equaliser by substitute Dejan Kulusevski denied Rangers a famous victory over Tottenham in a breathless Europa League Battle of Britain at Ibrox. Hamza Igamane gave the courageous Scottish Premiership side a deserved lead just after the interval and piled pressure on under-fire Spurs manager Ange Postecoglou . But the Australian made a flurry of substitutions and rescued a valuable point at the ground where he had many a battle during two years as the manager of Celtic . With 11 points from six games, both sides are on course to reach the knockout stage, but it was Rangers who took most of the credit from a compelling encounter, especially as they look ahead to Sunday's Premier Sports Cup final against Celtic. Paul Forsyth analyses the individual performances on both sides. Hamza Igamane celebrates his goal with Nicolas Raskin in Rangers' 1-1 draw with Tottenham Rangers winger Vaclav Cerny posed a threat throughout their Europa League match at Ibrox Spurs keeper Fraser Forster made several big saves, including one that denied Cyriel Dessers RANGERS Jack Butland - 7 Strong and alert. Denied Porro and Johnson with his body, although he was wrong-footed by the equaliser. James Tavernier - 7 His cross set up Igamane’s goal. For all the questions about his defensive ability, he was diligent in the tackle. John Souttar - 5 Solid start but pulled up with no-one around him and hobbled off before half-time. A worry ahead of the cup final. Robin Propper - 7 Might have been unsettled by Souttar’s departure but stuck to the task, kept his position and made some key blocks. Jefte - 6 Got forward well and swung in some lovely crosses. Nearly beat his own goalkeeper with a misjudged header. Nicolas Raskin - 8 Another dynamic, hard-working dislay in which he covered every blade of grass. Played his heart out. Mohamed Diomande - 6 Bright and positive. Had a shot deflected just wide. Booked for a handball, he will miss Rangers’ next Europa game. Vaclav Cerny - 8 Took on his opponents at will, cut inside and frequently got shots away. Twice had angled efforts parried by the keeper. Nedim Bajrami - 7 Seemed to enjoy the No 10 role. Had a crisp shot tipped over, but inexplicably pulled out when Jefte laid one on a plate. Ridvan Yilmaz - 7 Deployed wide on the left, high up the pitch, the full-back was a bright, lively presence. Also carried a goal threat. Hamza Igamane - 7 Had great, quick feet through the middle. A little lacking in physicality but took his chance superbly well. Philippe Clement - 8 One or two surprise selections were proved right. Could not have got more from his players. SUBSTITUTES: Balogun (Souttar, 35), Barron (Bahrami, 68), Sterling (Cerny, 68), Dessers (Igamane, 79), Fraser (Yilmaz 80). Not used: Kelly, Cortes, Dowell, King, McCausland, Rice, Curtis TOTTENHAM Fraser Forster - 8 Jeered throughout, the former Celtic keeper had a busy night. The pick of several saves was the late one to deny Dessers. Pedro Porro - 6 Lost his bearings for the goal, allowing Igamane space to score. Drew a fine save from Butland with an angled shot. Archie Gray - 7 So smooth and composed on the ball that he was almost over-confident, losing possession at times. Radu Dragusin - 7 A strong, physical presence, but he was stretched, most notably when he was booked for pulling back Yilmaz. Destiny Udogie - 6 Given an uncomfortable time by Cerny in the first half. Was dragged out of position a bit too easily. Rodrigo Bentancur - 6 Serving a seven-match ban from domestic football, his return to the fray didn’t really have the desired impact. Y ves Bissouma - 7 Made plenty of safe, successful passes but the midfield was much more intense after he was subsituted. James Maddison - 7 Showed more ambition than his team-mates, roaming the midfield and trying his luck from distance. Brennan Johnson - 6 Never took full advantage of an open game. Had one big chance, but he failed to wrap his foot round it. Son Heung-min - 6 The captain and key striker had a quiet night. Rarely got a sight of goal, even when his team upped their game. Timo Werner- 4 Despite curling an early shot over, never got going, lost confidence and made poor decisions. Subbed at half-time. Ange Postecoglou - 6 Must be worried that that his team lacked intensity but his subs made a big difference. SUBSTITUTES: Kulusevski (Werner, 46), Solanke (Johnson, 60), Sarr (Bentancur, 60), Bergvall (Bissoume, 60). Not used: Austin, Whiteman, Lankshear, Dorrington, Olusesi, Williams-Barnett, Hardy Referee: Sandro Scharer (Switzerland) - 6 Dejan Kulusevski Share or comment on this article: Rangers 1-1 Tottenham PLAYER RATINGS: Who played his heart out?

Although no firm date has been given for launch to the ISS , it is known that a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket and Dragon capsule will be made available at the NASA base in Cape Canaveral, Florida and won’t be earlier than April of next year. Coincidentally, in 2023, the Polish government increased its contributions to the ESA by €295 million for the years 2023-2025, allowing Polish companies to participate in various programmes connected with space. Some 22,000 candidates wanted to become Poland’s second man in space in 50 years There was a huge amount of interesting in becoming Poland’s first astronaut with Sławosz Uznański beating some 22,000 potential candidates to win the honour. According to the Polish Press Agency (PAP) Uznański observed that the upcoming mission “is just the beginning as we are building our technological future. We have our place in space but also much bigger ambitions.” The late Mirosław Hermaszewski, who was part of a two-man crew aboard the Soviet spaceship Soyuz 30 that flew into orbit on June 1978 was the first Pole to travel in space. A special mission patch featuring a stylised white and red eagle (the symbol of Poland) which has flames at the end of its tail as a nod to the meaning of the Latin name with a number of other special design features has been created.
