PARIS (AP) — The Dakar Rally in January will start in Portugal and finish in Morocco after being moved from Saudi Arabia because of the Middle East conflict.
Organizers announced the new route on Friday. They canceled the race in Saudi last weekend but reaffirmed it will return to the kingdom in 2028.
The Dakar, the world's biggest off-road race, returns to Africa for the first time in 20 years.
It will run from Jan. 9-23. The Algarve will hold the prologue and first stage and Morocco will hold the other 11 stages, going as south as outside Dakhla with a return north to finish in Marrakech.
Organizers said the route was 7,824 kilometers with 4,341 of those special stages, which was close to recent editions. Each special will range from 350 to 500 kilometers.

Portugal and Morocco will host the 2027 Dakar Rally the organisers announced on Friday after it was moved from Saudi Arabia following repeated attacks on the kingdom by Yemen's Houthis.
The drivers, motorcyclists and truck drivers will tackle the prologue and first special stage in Portugal followed by 11 stages of the gruelling rally -- covering almost 8,000 kilometres with 4,341km of specials -- in Morocco.
It is the first time since 2007 that the gruelling multi-stage rally, created in 1978, returns to Africa.
"Although it has been moved, the 49th edition of the Dakar will still meet the sporting standards which has always made the event the most demanding of endurance rallies," said race director David Castera.
"Despite the short amount of time we have had we have put together a real Dakar.

President Donald Trump fired off a 1,321-word Truth Social post Sunday night mocking and attacking Bill Maher, days after the comedian defended attending a recent White House dinner with the president during his show's opening monologue on Friday night and declaring, "I like these dinners."
US President Donald Trump speaks at a midterm election campaign rally at Guardian Centers of Georgia in Perry, Georgia.
In the post, Trump lobbed multiple insults at Maher, calling him a "coward," a "major POTHEAD," and a "loser" while attacking the comedian's HBO talk show.
The president claimed that Maher was drunk during their recent dinner, alleging that he had "alcohol in his hand" as he walked through the White House and "looked like **** ."
Trump also disputed Maher's claim that the dinner, attended by ESPN host Stephen A. Smith and musician Kid Rock, lasted four hours, saying it lasted "two hours, maybe less," and adding he "felt it was a waste of time."

STOCKHOLM, Oct 8 (Reuters) - Canadian poet and writer Anne Carson won the 2026 **** el Prize in Literature "for her bold and inventive oeuvre that, in playful dialogue with the classical tradition, has created new forms for contemporary literature", the Swedish Academy said on Thursday.
"She was very taken by surprise," said Ingrid ‌Carlberg, permanent secretary of the academy, which awards the prize worth 12 million Swedish crowns ($1.2 million).
"We didn't have so much time to speak, and all she had time to tell ‌me was that she is for the moment in Iceland, where she's listening to the wind."
Carson's work often blends verse, prose, dialogue and translation in a genre-defying mix. Born in Toronto, the 76-year-old has also held Icelandic citizenship since 2022 and has spent considerable time on the Arctic island in recent years.

It reportedly didn't take Taylor Swift long to replace former BFF Blake Lively. The global pop star has recently been flaunting her friendship with actress Dakota Johnson, which Hollywood insider Rob Shuter is claiming has been "torture" for Lively.
Swift and Johnson appeared together at the 2026 MTV Video Music Awards on Sunday, September 27, where the Verity star presented the "Cleveland!" singer with the inaugural Artist Director Honors award. Johnson then hosted the October 3 episode of Saturday Night Live, and Swift crashed her monologue, jokingly appearing as her "literal therapist."

Blake Lively is struggling with Taylor Swift and Dakota Johnson's increasingly public friendship amid her estrangement from the pop superstar, according to gossip columnist Rob Shuter.
Sources told Shuter's Naughty But Nice Substack on Monday, October 5, that that Lively, 39, fears she has been replaced in Swift's inner circle as the singer, 36, continues to publicly show her support for Johnson — a situation that has become "torture" for her.
"Blake was devastated watching it," a source told Shuter of Swift's surprise appearance during Johnson's Saturday Night Live monologue on October 3. "Taylor wasn't just supporting Dakota privately. She walked onto that stage and showed millions of people how close they are. Blake couldn't help wondering: Does Taylor know exactly how much this will hurt me?"
Swift and Johnson's friendship is not new. The Verity star, 37, recently confirmed that she and Swift have "been friends for a really long time" and are "very close."

Taylor Swift made a surprise cameo on Saturday Night Live on October 3.
The singer wore an off-the-shoulder minidress and sported a fresh choppy lob for the appearance.
She joined host Dakota Johnson in a joking monologue about the actress's penchant for dating musicians.

Dakota Johnson's "Saturday Night Live" monologue was interrupted this week by the actress' "literal therapist," Taylor Swift, who bonded with the host over their shared experiences dating musicians who "don't wear shoes" and happen to be "terrible in bed."
Johnson kicked off her "SNL" run this week with a joke about her failed 2024 superhero movie "Madame Web," which she remarked she is still promoting because "it hasn't made any money yet." Afterward, the actress reflected on the other turns her life has taken since she last hosted "SNL."
"I went through two very public, very lame breakups with two very awesome musicians. Looking for a third," Johnson joked, referencing her splits from Coldplay frontman Chris Martin and Role Model singer-songwriter Tucker Pillsbury. While she vowed not to talk anymore about her personal life, Johnson's monologue was derailed again after she noted that her new movie, "Verity," is a psychosexual erotic thriller.
"So is dating musicians. Some of them don't wear shoes. Some of them are terrible in bed. But all of them are in my DMs," Johnson said. "Some people leave concerts with merch, and I leave concerts with a two-and-a-half year relationship." Thankfully, Johnson said she has "good friends" who do not judge her for her dating choices.
Enter: Swift, whom Johnson called her "literal therapist," much to the former's discomfort. "I'm not your therapist, actually. You just show up once a week at my house with an empty bottle of wine and ask if I want some," Swift said.

Manchester United legend Paul Scholes has warned Michael Carrick that he may have a major problem on his hands with Matheus Cunha.
Several United players underperformed in Sunday's stalemate with Everton, but Cunha was the worst of the lot.
From overhit passes and heavy touches to poor positional awareness and glaring misses, his performance was a catalogue of errors. There was simply too much that went wrong.
In yet another game, Cunha didn't appear to have a clear role in the team. Last term, Carrick primarily used him on the left of the attack. But Marcus Rashford's return has seen him pushed elsewhere in the team.

Michigan Democratic Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed is seeking to appear more moderate to voters while, at the same time, maintaining ties to individuals who take positions far to the left of anything he publicly endorses.
Since launching his Senate bid in April 2025, El-Sayed has distanced himself from a number of positions he had previously held and scrubbed much of his left-wing pre-campaign content from the internet. He has also repeatedly insisted that he is "not a socialist."
While attempting to convince voters that characterizations of him as a left-wing ideologue are inaccurate, El-Sayed has appeared at campaign events with and accepted endorsements from a range of political allies and supporters with controversial records or views.

Wendy Schmidt and Kos Evans
I love to sail. And, yes, I've been known to "rock." I've even meet a few rockstars over the years. (Just please don't tell my 14-year-old son I said so. He already thinks I'm pretty cringe.) I've met a few royals and attended some very cool art exhibitions over the years too.
But I've never been to a modern art exhibition that combines rockstars, yachts and all sorts of royalty quite like the event was held to benefit Nantucket Community Sailing at the oh-so-authentic Thomas Macy Warehouse on the island. And lots of well-connected people who love the ocean, yachts, and art were there to see Kos Evans's expanded Rock and Royals modern art collection. It features one-of-a-kind images of legendary rockstars and all sorts of royalty who sail, on rare, one-of-a-kind sailcloth from yachts owned by the likes of Pete Townshend, the Prince of Monaco, and American royalty such as JFK too.
Rock and Royals on display
According to KOS, Rock & Royals is more than an exhibition. "It's a celebration that pays homage to the legends who owned these sails and to the sea itself," she says. By transforming these authentic pieces of history into art, Kos creates a unique dialogue between history, celebrity, royalty, and contemporary artistic expression.

John Cena vs Cody Rhodes headlined WrestleMania 41.
WWE's eclectic portfolio of partnerships doesn't get closer to he center of a Venn Diagram than its budding collaboration with Supercell's Clash of Clans. Already a ***** an in its own way, Clash of Clans has amassed over two billion lifetime downloads. The popular game was recently voted the Greatest Mobile Game of all Time by the followers of Pubity.

One of the most influential figures in sports media is Stephen A. Smith. He is also one of the most polarizing, building a career by embracing the fact that sports fans either love him or hate him. Especially Dallas Cowboys fans, whom he frequently trolls.
However, that perception extends beyond the viewing audience. Smith has had notable clashes with colleagues throughout his career. Sometimes he has been on the right side of those controversies. Other times, he has not.
One of Smith's most notable feuds has been with former ESPN anchor Cari Champion. Champion worked for the Worldwide Leader in Sports from 2012 to 2020 and now hosts her own show on Amazon Prime. In the years since leaving First Take, Champion has had plenty to say about her former colleague.

Comedian Bill Maher mocked liberals for crying foul over President Donald Trump's decision to rename Lake Ontario, suggesting they know a thing or two about changing things to fit a political agenda.
In Friday's opening monologue of HBO's "Real Time," host Maher poked fun at Trump's renaming of one of the Great Lakes to "Lake America" during an ongoing trade war with Canada.
"Trump is so mad at Canada he renamed Lake Ontario Lake America," Maher said. "Now I gotta buy a new globe again.

There was a very familiar face back at practice on Sunday, and we're not talking about Puka Nacua. Aaron Donald, who announced his return to the NFL before final roster cuts, was on the practice field for the first time since retiring after the 2023 season.
The Rams are working him back into the picture along the defensive line with less than two weeks to go until the season opener. For a guy who's always stayed in shape, it seemingly shouldn't take too long for him to be game-ready, but Sean McVay isn't going to put any timelines on things.
He told reporters after practice on Sunday that the team is going to take it one day at a time with Donald, ramping things up as the season approaches. So will he play in Week 1 against the 49ers? That's to be determined, McVay suggests.
"Good to be able to get Aaron back into the mix," McVay said. "You guys know how close we are and there's been a lot of dialogue that we've had and excited to be able to just take it a day at a time. I'm not going to talk about any sort of plans. It's going to be a day at a time for us. What does that mean for Australia? The first step was, all right, if you're coming back, let's do that, let's get you on the practice field, let's get you acclimated to your teammates, to your coaches, and then we'll see what that ramp-up period looks like, whether or not he's available or whether or not we think it's best to be able to play him in Australia. I think the best way to do it is to take it one day at a time, but we're obviously excited to be able to have him back."
On Sunday, Donald went through individual drills with the defensive linemen before heading back to the locker room, Gary Klein of the LA Times reports. That's not surprising with this being his first practice back.

Tom Felton reflected on what went into filming the Harry Potter epilogue for 2011's Deathly Hallows — Part 2 time jump
Fifteen years later, he is currently reprising the role of Draco in the Harry Potter and the Cursed Child stage play on Broadway
The actor joked that his current appearance in 2026 is "more flattering" than the version of adult Draco in the film
Tom Felton is reflecting on what it was like to film the epilogue for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows — Part 2.
Fifteen years after the final Harry Potter film was released in 2011, Felton, 38, said that the epilogue time jump required "a lot of research into what we would look like 19 years later." The epilogue showed the main characters — including Felton's Draco Malfoy, Daniel Radcliffe's Harry Potter, Rupert Grint's Ron Weasley and Emma Watson's Hermione Granger — as adult parents sending their children to Hogwarts.

In his review of Transformers: War for Cybertron, Dan Stapleton referred to "the tingly nerd-joy of hearing original Optimus Prime voice actor Peter Cullen's authoritative dialogue". Every time the character appeared on screen, as he did many times in videogames like Transformers: Devastation and Fall of Cybertron or the middling movies, it was thrilling to hear him and realize, yes, they got the "real" Optimus Prime.
As noted by The Hollywood Reporter, Cullen has died at the age of 85. He joins a string of particularly beloved celebrities to have died in recent days, including Dolly Parton, Yayoi Kusama, and Red Alert 3 star and camp icon Tim Curry.
While most famous for his recurring role as Optimus Prime, Cullen also voiced Venger in Dungeons & Dragons, Eeyore in Winnie the Pooh, Monterey Jack in Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers, and provided the menacing clicking sounds for the Predator.

The NFL's 53-man roster deadline is less than 24 hours away and several teams, including the Atlanta Falcons, have already started making moves. Thus far, the Falcons have waived seven players, cut three others and placed one on the reserve/injured list.
Former Falcons defensive lineman Zion Logue also lost his job on Saturday afternoon. The Buffalo Bills released the former Georgia Bulldogs standout in their first wave of roster cuts.
The 25-year-old was selected by Atlanta in the sixth-round of the 2024 NFL Draft but failed to make the 53-man roster out of training camp. After landing on the Falcons' practice squad, Logue was poached by the Bills early in the 2024 season.
Logue appeared in five games for the Bills over the last two seasons. The 6-foot-6, 325-pound defensive tackle should land on a practice squad at the very least. Perhaps Atlanta will take another look at the former Bulldog.
As for the Falcons, here's a quick rundown of each reported roster move as of Saturday evening.

#roster #saturday #squad

The Buffalo Bills have released former Georgia Bulldogs defensive lineman Zion Logue ahead of the 2026 NFL season. Buffalo released Logue ahead of the roster cut deadline. Logue recorded a pair of tackles and no sacks this preseason.
This offseason, Buffalo signed Logue to a reserves/futures contract. Logue is a candidate to land on the Bills' practice squad.
Last season, Logue appeared in three games with the Bills. He posted 1/2 sack, two tackles and a pass defended.
The Bills signed Logue off the Atlanta Falcons' practice squad during the 2024 NFL season. The Falcons originally drafted Logue in the sixth-round of the 2024 NFL draft. Back as a rookie in 2024, Logue had a similar role in Buffalo. He appeared in two games for the Bills and recorded a pair of tackles.
Logue was one of 13 players Buffalo released ahead of the roster cut deadline. The Bills also released former Georgia receiver Mecole Hardman, who scored the winning touchdown in Super Bowl 58.

The Bills announced their first wave of cuts on Saturday afternoon.
The list includes the previous reported release of wide receiver Mecole Hardman, but not the release of punter Mitch Wishnowsky. The Bills have reportedly decided to go with rookie Tommy Doman over Wishnowsky.
Buffalo is also parting ways with linebacker Cade Denhoff, cornerback Jordan Dunbar, guard Bruno Fina, linebacker Theron Gaines, center Sincere Haynesworth, defensive lineman Zion Logue, cornerback D.J. Miller, safety Wande Owens, wide receiver Dante Pettis, linebacker Otis Reese, wide receiver Quentin Skinner, and tight end Shane Zylstra.
If Wishnowsky's reported release is included, the Bills are left with 23 more moves to make to get to the 53-man limit on Sunday.

Police have issued a warning about a scam where organised crime groups offer fake heavily discounted deals from retail providers on social media.
Derbyshire Police's cyber crime team told the BBC there have been 30 instances in the county this year of people handing over money to what they thought were supermarkets, electronic and catalogue retailers.
Officers said it was a "new tactic" from scammers to obtain bank details by offering deals ranging from 40% to 70% off items and services.
PC Colin Smith, who is leading the force's Operation Chipper, said: "The classic sign is if it's too good to be true, it generally is."
The scam works by people paying what they think is a legitimate retailer offering heavy discounts.

JOHANNESBURG: A top State Department official has hit out at China for what **** ysts are calling "the China shock wave" effect now crippling African economies.
African manufacturing is reportedly being battered by a surge of Chinese imports. It's a triple whammy — China takes raw materials, including critical minerals, from the continent and floods Africa with state-subsidized products. And Beijing isn't importing anywhere near an equal amount of African products.
The China Global South Project reported that in 2025, Chinese exports to Africa hit $225 billion in value, whereas imports from Africa were roughly only half that — $123 billion.

Where do you start? How do you catalogue the insipidness of Derek McInnes' Rangers team in Jablonec?
How do you catalogue the Pedro-Caixinha-in-the-bushes level embarrassment that the club experienced in their exit from European football on Thursday?
In Jablonec, Rangers were unspeakably awful, devoid of any cohesion, desire, threat, their manager reduced to saying how embarrassed and mortified he was multiple times post-match.
They had one shot on target the whole night, one goal scored in 210 minutes. Rangers fans in the stadium gave it to them with both barrels at the end.
McInnes apologised. The whole scene was cringe-making. He tried to explain what he was trying to do with his multiple switches of formation and attempted to explain why his side were "miles off it".

Gene Deal claims he's being pressured to testify in Duane "Keffe D" Davis' murder trial over the 1996 killing of Tupac Shakur.
During a conversation with The Art of Dialogue, the former Bad Boy bodyguard explained why he believes his testimony is being sought, claiming there is interest in having him establish a connection between Keffe D and Sean "Diddy" Combs.
"They want me to show that Keffe D and Diddy had a relationship," Deal said. "They want me to establish what I know about Keffe D and Puff coercing with each other when they're around each other. Gambling, laughing, drinking, popping bottles, the whole nine yards. That's what they wanted me to do."
Deal stressed that much of what he knows about the circumstances surrounding Tupac's death came from what others allegedly told him rather than what he personally witnessed.

Prince Harry reportedly wants to work on his relationship with Kate Middleton. According to an insider, he seemingly would want to mend fences with his sister-in-law. It was said that Prince William "won't speak to him." Therefore, Harry might try to seek Middleton's help to make amends with his brother.
For those unversed, the Duke of Sussex has returned to the UK with his wife, Meghan Markle. They arrived on August 26 with their kids, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.
Prince Harry would reportedly like to repair his and Kate Middleton's relationship. They used to share a close, comfortable bond. But things turned sour after the Sussexes moved to California. Now, they have returned to the duke's homeland; therefore, Harry might want to make amends with his sister-in-law.
A source told the National Examiner that Harry would approach Middleton even if he had to do it behind his brother's back. He seems to believe that the Princess of Wales can help her mend fences with Prince William. "With everything that is going on, Harry feels he needs to have some sort of dialogue with his brother's camp, and since William won't speak to him, it just makes sense to go to Kate," they said.
Furthermore, the insider suggested that Harry thinks Middleton will need the "most straightforward path" to reach out to the royals. "He hates to put her in the middle, but he says he doesn't feel like he has any other choice because William is continuing to be so stubborn." According to them, the future queen seemed to be "more reasonable" than her husband.
