Uncovering a Holocaust survival story Holocaust survivors liberated in April 1945 near Magdeburg, Germany. The George Gross Collection/Matt Rozell As a young girl taking out a box containing toy soldiers from her dad's dresser drawer, Elizabeth Connolly was just curious, not trying to unearth a little-known piece of history. "I would go in and I would play with them, and I would set them all up on the floor," she said. But tucked in that drawer next to those toy soldiers was an envelope of photos, which Connolly found intriguing: "I always remember thinking, 'Hmm, they don't look like any of our relatives. I wonder who they are.'" They appeared quite removed from her reality in Upstate New York. "There was one that just always drew me:...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

| Manchester City's derby win another sign of worry for inconsistent Manchester United City went down to 10 in the 23rd minute after Phil Foden received a red card but still came out on top thanks to Erling Haaland's goal in the 60th minute  Getty Images About an hour into play at Old Trafford on Sunday, everything seemed to be trending in Manchester United's favor. Phil Foden's 23rd-minute red card meant they were up a man against bitter rivals Manchester City, to the point that they had seized control of the game. They were racking up shots – seven, to be exact, Marcus Rashford's free kick from close range just before the break getting them incredibly close to the game's opening goal. City, meanwhile, had been limited to a single shot after the red...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

| Lions restructure two contracts: What salary cap flexibility means for Sam LaPorta, Brian Branch extensions Detroit reworked the deals of Amon-Ra St. Brown and Penei Sewell  Getty Images The Detroit Lions suddenly have as much financial flexibility as nearly any team in the NFL. In the final hours leading up to their 2026 season opener, they reconstructed the contracts of two of their biggest stars: Wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown and offensive tackle Penei Sewell. The salary cap savings could open the door for important contract extensions or the addition of help at positions of need. Of the two reworked deals, St. Brown's contract is the larger. The Lions converted $26 million of his salary into a signing bonus, which creates...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

Missile crisis: The hard truths about America's military arsenal Assembling Patriot missiles at Lockheed Martin's production facility in Camden, Arkansas. CBS News On the floor at Lockheed Martin's production facility in Camden, Arkansas, Tim Cahill, head of the company's missile division, showed "Sunday Morning" the latest model of the Patriot air defense missile, a state-of-the-art weapon designed to shoot down the deadliest of threats: an incoming ballistic missile. It destroys an incoming missile by impact – a classic "bullet hitting a bullet" scenario. "It's going to vaporize pretty much whatever it hits," Cahill said.

U.S. Air Force officer shot down in Iran says he prayed while free-falling to the ground behind enemy lines The Air Force colonel needed help when he crashed over a mountainous part of Iran's desert, separated from his crewmate, the pilot of the F-15E, after being shot down by Iran in April. The U.S. aviator free-fell to the ground at an estimated 70-100 mph; the Iranian shoulder-fired missile had damaged his parachute. He was the backseater, the weapons-systems officer on a two-man crew with the mission call sign Dude 44. The pilot was Alpha; he was Bravo. "At one point when I looked up and saw no parachute, that was the most terrifying thing I've ever seen," Bravo said in his first public account of what happened.

Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei: "For too long the industry lied" about AI risks "I won't lie to you – there are real dangers," said Anthropic CEO and co-founder Dario Amodei about the development of artificial intelligence. "And I think for too long the industry lied to people about the fact that this technology had risks." And the biggest risk could be the end of humanity, former Anthropic researcher Jacob Coxon warned on social media this past Tuesday, saying Anthropic and OpenAI are "gambling with our lives" with the development of self-improving superintelligence. "It doesn't look that different from, say, 'Terminator' or from science fiction films," Coxon told CBS News Thursday. "It will be smart enough to kill us."

The AI bubble is leaking air, some economists say. Should investors worry? The AI bubble that has propelled U.S. stocks to record highs is starting to deflate, according to some Wall Street analysts. "There are plenty of signs that we are now in the late stages of a bubble in AI," John Higgins, chief economic adviser for financial markets at Capital Economics, said in a report on Monday. The investment advisory firm's "best guess" is that the AI bubble will begin to burst in 2027. Capital Economics also forecasts a correction, or when stocks fall at least 20% from their most recent high, in the S&P 500 stock index next year.

Earlier this season, the Yankees won their 82nd game, securing a winning record for the 34th straight time. Their worst season since 1992 was 2014, when they finished 84-78.

My conversation with Tilly Norwood creeped me out. Within a minute, the world's first "AI actor" could tell exactly how old I am and the region I'm from in the U.S. — it isn't really clear how.

Lawyers for Walker's family filed the lawsuit Tuesday in Bexar County District Court accusing Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio, several of her doctors and others of "deliberate indifference, discrimination, and medical mistreatment [that] ultimately caused her horrific and tragic death" in 2024.

Your home heating oil bill is likely to jump this winter Americans who use heating oil to warm their homes are likely to face a sharp spike in utility costs this winter as the Iran war drives up global energy prices, according to a new forecast. The National Energy Assistance Directors Association (NEADA), a nonprofit policy organization, estimates that households that use heating oil to power their furnaces and boilers will pay an average of nearly $2,300 in total for the four-month stretch between mid-November and mid-March 2027 — up more than 30% compared to last year. Heating oil costs are climbing due to the slowdown in oil flows through the Strait of Hormuz, according to Mark Wolfe, an energy economist and the executive director of...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

Americans' incomes hit a record high in 2025. Now for the bad news. American households earned a record median income of $87,460 last year, according to new Census Bureau data. The catch? That figure is only slightly above the previous peak set in 2019. Adjusting for inflation, that means the typical household has gained little economic ground in six years marked by pandemic upheaval and surging consumer prices. In 2019, households had a median income of $85,320, a level that wasn't surpassed until 2025, the Census said on Tuesday. A record high for household income, six years in the making Median household income rose to $87,460 in 2025, a record. But that's only about 2.5% higher than in 2019, after years of pandemic disruption...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

Own a car? You're getting socked by higher prices, and not only for gas Americans have had to shell out more to fill up their cars in recent months as the war with Iran drives up prices at the pump. But those expenses go far beyond fuel. "The rising cost of car ownership has been the big shocker of the inflation crisis," Heather Long, a chief economist at Navy Federal Credit Union, told CBS News. An analysis by the credit union found that car ownership costs have risen 50% since 2020. The main reason isn't pricier fuel, but rather higher repair costs, which have surged 70% in the last five years, according to Long. Repair costs average around $1,750 for a new car for the first five years of ownership, according to AAA...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

America has more millionaires than you think. Here's how most of them got rich. The richest person in your town probably isn't a technology entrepreneur or a hedge fund manager. More likely, it's the dentist who runs six offices or the HVAC contractor whose trucks you see everywhere, according to economists Owen Zidar and Eric Zwick. These "stealthy wealthy," as the duo describes them in their new book, "The Everywhere Millionaire," typically get rich the old-fashioned way — through hard work over many years. And there are plenty of them in the U.S., with roughly 5 million households worth at least $5 million and holding combined wealth exceeding 13 times that of the Forbes 400, their research shows.

Arsenal were one of the only teams in a top-five league to win all of their matches so far this season, until meeting their end in an away trip to face Brighton, where they lost 3-0.

It turns out the controversy surrounding her life has not faded nearly 30 years after her tragic death. In fact, Spencer's new book, "Swan Song: Diana, My Sister" (to be published Tuesday by Penguin Press), has pulled the scabs off some old wounds, especially when he recounts an unsettling conversion he says he had with Diana's ex-husband – now King Charles – shortly after she died: "He said about Diana, 'We'll forget her soon enough.'

| Five QB trades the Giants could make with Jaxson Dart out for season, including two with ties to John Harbaugh New York is turning to Jameis Winston for now, but several mobile quarterbacks and familiar faces could emerge as trade targets if the veteran struggles  Imagn Images The NFL season hasn't even hit Week 3, and the New York Giants are already in trouble. Jaxson Dart is out for the season after suffering a knee injury during the first quarter of New York's 28-6 loss to the Rams in Week 2. With Dart out, the Giants turn the offense over to Jameis Winston. The former No. 1 overall pick just signed a two-year, $13 million extension with New York, so the Giants clearly have some faith in him, but if he struggles over the next week or two,...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

Why the bond market is freaking out, and what it means for your money The bond market is flashing red. The yield on the 30-year Treasury note reached 5.44% on Wednesday, its highest level since 2004, before slipping slightly on Thursday morning. The 10-year Treasury, which influences mortgage rates, briefly neared 5.15% on Thursday morning, a level it last reached in 2001. Yields had already risen amid concerns about inflation and growing U.S. debt. They jumped further on Wednesday after stronger-than-expected economic data led investors to price in additional interest-rate hikes as the Federal Reserve battles inflation.

What is an "AI swarm," and why is it giving tech experts nightmares? Central to the dire warnings about artificial intelligence's potential danger to humanity is the risk that a "swarm" of AI agents could collaborate in nefarious ways, like hordes of digital extras from "The Matrix." Such fears have intensified following an attack by OpenAI bots this summer on another AI developer, Hugging Face, in which roughly 1,200 AI agents divvied up tasks to execute the hack and hide their tracks from human researchers. But what, exactly, is an AI swarm? And is the technology's emergent capacity for coordination a genuine threat to humanity?

It looks like the league is thinking about shutting it down. The rulebook is kind of ambiguous about whether teams can use a holder WITHOUT a tee on a normal kickoff, so the Eagles have been taking advantage of that.

The average round-trip ticket for a flight within the U.S. during the Thanksgiving break is $402, up $95 from the same period a year ago, fare aggregator Hopper said in an analysis. Round-trip domestic airfares around Christmas are averaging $452, up $85 from last year, according to the firm. Tickets for round-trip flights in the U.S. are already up 31% compared to the same period last year, reflecting elevated jet fuel costs, according to Hopper.

| Who's to blame for Eagles' embarrassing loss to Bears? Jalen Hurts bears big responsibility but not all Let's play the Eagles blame game after a disastrous loss in Chicago  Getty Images The Eagles' 27-7 loss to the Bears wasn't just an upset defeat. It was an embarrassment on the national stage. A team facing a third-string quarterback got outclassed in every single aspect: coaching, execution, preparation, offense, defense, poise, discipline, decision-making and quite literally anything and everything else that goes into a football game. Among the questions to ask: Why were the Eagles so bad? Why is the offense seemingly stuck in the mud? Why did the defense get carved up by Case Keenum? Why did it take so long for the team to show signs of life in both halves? Why was Jalen Hurts so bad, and why did Saquon Barkley go invisible? Why...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

Despite Beamer's 12th loss to Power Four opponents in 14 tries dating back to last season, it appears the sixth-year coach's job is secure for the time being. Breaking away from Beamer now or in the near future, sources say, would not be in the university's best...more Go top of page Go bottom of page |

The West Bank, located on the west bank of the Jordan River, is home to more than 3 million Palestinians who hope to make it the heart of their future state. It is also home to over 500,000 Jews who call the area Judea and Samaria, their biblical homeland. The area has been under Israeli military occupation for nearly six decades.
