HINSDALE, N.H. (AP) — Geoffrey Holt was unassuming as the caretaker of a mobile home park in Hinsdale, New Hampshire, where he lived a simple, but curious life. Residents would see Holt around town in threadbare clothes — riding his lawn mower, headed to the convenience store, parked along the main road reading a newspaper or watching cars pass.He did odd jobs for others, but rarely left town. Despite having taught driver’s ed to high schoolers, Holt had given up driving a car. He opted for a bicycle instead and finally the mower. His mobile home in the park was mostly empty of furniture — no TV and no computer, either. The legs of the bed went through the floor.“He seemed to have what he wanted, but he didn’t want much,” said Edwin “Smokey” Smith, Holt’s best friend and former employer.But Holt died earlier this year with a secret: He was a multimillionaire. And what’s more, he gave it all away to this community of 4,200 people.His will had brief instructions: $3.8 million to...Jalen Hurts and the Eagles continue to find ways to win in latest victory over the Chiefs

PHILADELPHIA (AP) — By their own standards, the Philadelphia Eagles’ victory over the Kansas City Chiefs wasn’t a masterpiece performance. But it was yet another masterclass in winning.Jalen Hurts overcame five sacks in the first half, the Eagles pushed aside some ineffective play on both sides of the ball and the result was a 21-17 comeback victory over Kansas City in a rematch of last year’s Super Bowl.“I’d trade winning last year for this one, but it feels good to get this one,” Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni said.Sirianni was most impressed by his team’s intangibles in the victory that improved them to a league-best 9-1.“We have a bunch of guys who know how to win,” he said.The Eagles couldn’t protect Hurts before halftime when they fell behind by 10 points and didn’t look much better when they opened the second half with two consecutive three-and-outs. But there was no panic on the sideline.“There’s a calmness there,” Hurts said. “You have to truly remain in control. You want ...Train derails near phosphate plant in Fort Meade; No injuries reported

KYIV — German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius arrived in Kyiv on Tuesday bearing a much-needed gift: more military aid for Ukraine.“I have the honor to announce a new package,” Pistorius said during a press conference in Kyiv. It includes another four systems of IRIS-T medium-range missiles, 155-millimeter ammunition, and Panzer anti-tank defense mines, he clarified.“Altogether it is a package worth €1.3 billion euros, and I am quite sure this will help you and your fight against Russian aggression. We stand with Ukraine reliably,” Pistorius said.Although the European Union will likely miss its self-imposed deadline to deliver 1 million artillery shells to Ukraine by March 2024, Pistorius said that the German government included an additional 20,000 155-mm artillery shells to its already announced 140,000 for next year.“Altogether 160,000 for next year — with the number increasing, I hope, in 2025,” Pistorius added.When asked about whether Ukraine will ...Palantir bid wins £330m British health service contract

LONDON — Britain’s National Health Service (NHS) on Tuesday awarded a £330 million contract to run a new data platform to a bid spearheaded by U.S. tech company Palantir.Under a deal initially set to run for five years, Palantir, alongside Accenture and PwC, will provide a “Federated Data Platform” to the NHS. The platform is a bid to connect the many different data systems within the U.K.’s sprawling, publicly-funded healthcare system.Health bosses say the FDP will improve patient care and stop patients having to repeatedly explain their ailments to staff at different hospitals.But the tender has attracted criticism from campaigners, who fret that it will lead to controversial U.S. tech firm Palantir gaining a central role in Britain’s cherished NHS.Palantir, which had long been tipped to win the contract, has courted controversy because of links to former Donald Trump donor Peter Thiel and work for national security agencies and militaries.“The safety and security of patient data ...Lowe’s, Best Buy and Kohl’s predict a weak holiday

New York (CNN) — Shoppers will be splurging less this holiday than in past years, major retailers say.Best Buy, Lowe’s and Kohl’s all reported sales declines during their most recent quarter Tuesday and are forecasting holiday sales to drop from a year ago.“Consumer demand has been even more uneven and difficult to predict,” Best Buy CEO Corie Barry said in a statement, noting that the company “prepared for a customer who is very deal-focused.”Holiday sales are predicted to grow this year but at a slower rate.In 2021, Holiday shopping sales spiked by 14% and grew by a healthy 5% last year. But Moody’s Investors Service said in a report today that consumers are “losing spending steam” and holiday sales will grow by just 1% to 3% this year.Shoppers have become more cautious in the face of inflation, higher interest rates and the resumption of student loan repayments.Moody’s analysts say the high cost of living and dwindling savings will cause low and middle income consu...Pressure mounts on Beacon Hill to pass bill with migrant aid, union contract dollars
Published Thu, 31 Oct 2024 23:16:24 GMT
Pressure mounted Monday on Beacon Hill lawmakers to find a deal on a $2.8 billion bill that includes money for 90 collective bargaining agreements and strained emergency shelters across the state housing migrant and homeless families.House Republicans and pushed Democratic negotiators in a letter to split off the union dollars from the main proposal as the shelter aid continues to hold up talks that broke down at the end of formal law making last week.There is clear consensus in both the House and Senate to fund the union contracts, most of which were agreed to months ago, Republicans wrote in the letter.“These (collective bargaining agreements) contain pay raises for approximately 100,000 workers, many of whom have gone without a COLA or raise in quite some time, even as the cost of living in Massachusetts has continued to climb. These CBAs were negotiated in good faith, and it is imperative that the state fulfill its obligation to fund these contracts,” the letter said.Sen. John K...Latest news
