Rager appeared to be the first to stumble, and the domino effect took over from there. Powell appeared to get thrown somewhat violently toward the track wall, hitting his back on the hardpacked icy surface after he couldn't get into the sled, and Furnell couldn't make his way into his spot either. None of the U.S. sliders suffered serious injuries and all X-rays taken came back negative, the team said.

Friday's December employment report - the last for 2025 - reinforced the biggest theme in the job market last year: It's a hard time to be looking for work, unless you're looking at a few select corners of the economy. "The job market is ending the year with a fizzle rather than a bang," Daniel Zhao, the chief economist at Glassdoor, said. In total, the US added just 584,000 jobs in 2025, a big drop from the past few years.
It's an event so rare that it has only happened 11 times in the past 41 years, and when it's anticipated to run, all of Hawaii turns its attention to the North Shore of Oahu. People arrive a day or two ahead, sleeping in cars or tents on the side of the highway that leads to Waimea Bay and tailgating into the night to claim a sliver of parking. They're waiting to hear if the Eddie Aikau Big Wave Invitational surfing contest, also called the Eddie for short, will get the green light from the lifeguards, who have the final say.
The Department of Health has confirmed that multiple monkeys are on the loose around the vicinity of O'Fallon Park in North City. Original reports suggested there were four animals, but we cannot confirm an actual number at this time, only that there is more than one, Justen Hauser, environmental health bureau chief with the St Louis department of health, said in a statement to the Guardian.

Many U.S. police departments, including the LAPD, discourage officers from shooting at moving vehicles due to the high risk of stray gunfire. Recent ICE shootings in Portland and Minneapolis have reignited debate over when deadly force against motorists is justified or necessary. Since January 2015, LAPD officers have fired their weapons at least 36 times at vehicles, killing seven motorists or passengers and wounding 12 others.
One reason is that the pandemic brought a sharp shift in household consumption toward goods and away from services. Rural America, the manufacturing heartland, benefited from job growth in 2022 and 2023. That growth slowed by 2024, but legislation like Sen. Todd Young's CHIPS and Science Act offered at least a hint that we might be entering a period of more stable factory employment.

The National Park Service has updated its policy to discourage visitors from defacing a picture of President Trump on this year's pass. The use of an image of Trump on the 2026 pass rather than the usual picture of nature has sparked a backlash, sticker protests, and a lawsuit from a conservation group. The $80 annual America the Beautiful pass gives visitors access to more than 2,000 federal recreation sites.

Customs and Border Patrol agents shot and injured two people in Portland, Ore., on Thursday, one day after an Immigrations Custom and Enforcement agent shot and killed Renee Good in Minneapolis. Reactions to the shootings, from public protests to online arguments, reflect a deep divide in how they're seen as tragic abuses of power or law enforcement officers acting in self-defense.
