Dolphins first loss of season shows they haven’t yet surpassed the Bills in AFC East

Published Wed, 19 Feb 2025 20:54:31 GMT

MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. (AP) — The Miami Dolphins still have work to do if they want to be the team to beat in the AFC.They’ve shown this season that they can blow out teams and win close games, but they haven’t gotten past the division-rival Buffalo Bills, who have won the AFC East the past three seasons.Buffalo handed the Dolphins (3-1) their first loss of the season Sunday in a 48-20 defeat that kept Miami from taking the lead in the division and exposed weaknesses that either weren’t there in Miami’s first three games or were hidden by its offensive firepower.The Dolphins had outscored their opponents 130-71 and averaged 550 yards in the first three games of the season, but that high-powered offense was uneven Sunday both because of a tough Bills defensive front and because of self-inflicted wounds.A number of pre-snap penalties stalled momentum. Quarterback Tua Tagovailoa said he needs to be better at communicating in the huddle, but coach Mike McDaniel said...

‘It’s a survival issue’: Ukraine looks to arm itself as Western support slips

Published Wed, 19 Feb 2025 20:54:31 GMT

In a hotel conference room in Kyiv late last week, Ukrainian leaders huddled with hundreds of defense industry officials and policymakers from allied countries. The message was clear: Ukraine is open for business.Despite the specter of Russian missile fire in the Ukrainian capital, the International Industries Defense Forum was eerily similar to the panel-laden conferences that pop up many times a year in Washington and London. But the stakes were different for this one, as Ukraine finds its supporters running out of weapons to send while others are increasingly wary of committing more money to the conflict.With the charm offensive directed at weapons-makers around the world, the country is effectively trying to take matters into its own hands.“It’s a survival issue,” said Pavel Verkhniatskyi, managing partner at COSA Intelligence Solutions in Kyiv, since there is only so long Ukraine can expect to rely on donations from partners whose support can be switched off with a single elect...

Trump blasts judge during first day of $250 million fraud trial

Published Wed, 19 Feb 2025 20:54:31 GMT

NEW YORK — Donald Trump came face-to-face in a Manhattan court Monday with the attorney general who is suing him for massive business fraud and the judge who last week revoked his business licenses, as the former president attended the first day of a $250 million civil trial.A scowl on his face as he entered the courtroom, Trump showed up to see opening statements in the trial. New York Attorney General Tish James alleges that Trump, his adult sons, his companies and some of his business associates, fraudulently inflated Trump’s net worth in order to obtain favorable terms from banks and insurance companies.During a midday lunch break, Trump derided Justice Arthur Engoron, the state court judge overseeing the case. Engoron will decide the outcome of the trial, since it is a bench trial, meaning there is no jury.“This is a judge that should be disbarred. This is a judge that should be out of office. This is a judge that some people say could be charged criminally for what h...

As tributes pour in for all-star Red Sox pitcher Tim Wakefield, the star is being remembered for his contributions both on and off the field. Wakefield, who spent nearly 30 years with the Red Sox organization, died over the weekend.

Today was nice, but it’s about to get a lot warmer! The next couple of days will feel more like August than October. We had all sorts of sunshine today with a little slice of mild air sitting over New England. But not too far west the heat is building… and has been for a couple of days. Saturday, Minneapolis had a high temperature of 88°, Sunday 92°, and back near 90° again today. In fact, the Twin Cities Marathon was canceled over the weekend due to the heat, not something you’d picture in October. That warm air will surge into New England the next couple of days.Tomorrow many towns will head to the 80s.But it’s not just the warmer temperatures that will make it feel like August, the humidity will rise too. Notice where the warm air is, there’s also a lot higher humidity. We again were comfortable today, but those higher dew points and the more muggy feel will return for the rest of the week. Now, it’s not going to be your mid summer humidity wit...
