How to watch: Fans can watch “Holiday Touchdown” for free via a trial of Philo , DirecTV Stream or fuboTV , which is offering $30 off this month. Here’s what you need to know: What: “Holiday Touchdown” premiere When: Saturday, Nov. 30, 2024 Time: 8 p.m. ET TV: Hallmark Channel Live stream: Philo (free trial), fuboTV (free trial), DirecTV Stream (free trial) Kansas City Chiefs’ cameos: Head coach Andy Reid , offensive guard Trey Smith , wide receiver Mecole Hardman Jr. , running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire and defensive end George Karlaftis . Donna Kelce , the mother of Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce , also plays a role in the Hallmark original. Film Synopsis: Chiefs superfan Alana [ Hunter King ] tries to win the Fan of the Year Award as a Christmas gift for her family, falling in love with someone in the Chiefs front office [Tyler Hynes] along the way. *** Here’s an entertainment story via the Associated Press: Two new Christmas TV movies have a Taylor Swift connection that her fans would have no problem decoding. “Christmas in the Spotlight” on Lifetime. It stars Jessica Lord as the world’s biggest pop star and Laith Wallschleger as a pro football player, who meet and fall in love — not unlike Swift and her boyfriend, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce. “It’s clearly inspired by Taylor and Travis, but I don’t know them and I don’t know what is going on behind the scenes. I only know what’s been put out there,” said Eirene Tran Donohue, a longtime, devoted fan who jumped at the opportunity to write a script even loosely based on her favorite musician. She was inspired by the couple’s support of each other’s accomplishments, particularly Kelce’s ease with dating the star despite the glare of the spotlight, adding, “I love the way that he celebrates her.” Tran Donohue wants fellow Swift fans to know she wrote the script with them in mind. “There are so many Easter eggs,” she said of little details added that a Swift fan would pick up on. “I put in as many as I could.” Then, on Nov. 30, Hallmark will air “Holiday Touchdown: A Chiefs Love Story.” Instead of a nod to Swift, it’s an ode to family traditions and bonding, like rooting for a sports team. Hallmark’s headquarters is also in Kansas City, so it makes sense why the company chose the Chiefs to be highlighted. In this story, written by Julie Sherman Wolfe, sparks fly when a new employee for the Chiefs organization (Tyler Hynes) meets a woman — played by Hunter King — whose family’s dedication to the team goes back generations. Sherman Wolfe, a San Francisco 49ers fan, said she got the call a week after Super Bowl LVIII, when the Chiefs beat the 49ers 25-22. “I was still nursing my wounds,” she said adding that Hallmark asked, ‘Can you can you separate yourself from the loss and do this movie? I said, ’Absolutely. I mean, I’m a professional,‘" Sherman Wolfe said, laughing. While “Holiday Touchdown” has no mention of Swift or Kelce, it does feature a few Chiefs player cameos and Donna Kelce also has a small role. “I kept botching my line,” Hynes said of working with Mama Kelce. “I was just like, Donna Kelce’s about to speak and I’m beside myself. It was so fun.” The actors also got to film at Arrowhead Stadium and on the field.

Scientists, policymakers and industry representatives who participated in the 13th edition of the three-day National Seed Congress (NSC), which concluded on Saturday (November 30, 2024), resolved to work more on innovative seed technologies for farmers in the country. The focus will be on on hybrid and biofortified crops, stress-tolerant varieties, and accelerated breeding cycles. Can biofortified crops make India nutritionally secure? | In Focus podcast The meeting also discussed climate-resilient practices, including ‘Direct Seeded Rice’ and zero tillage to minimise the input costs involved in farming. The NSC also deliberated on the importance of policy frameworks in the seeds sector, including a new Seeds Bill, and enhancing seed entrepreneurship, improving supply chains, and building capacity among farmers. The meeting prescribed Public-Private Partnerships in the sector to promote sustainable seed production and distribution. The theme of this year’s NSC is ‘Innovating for a Sustainable Seed Ecosystem’, and more than 700 delegates from India and abroad participated in the discussions. At the closing ceremony, Uttar Pradesh Minister of State for Horticulture, Agriculture Marketing, Agriculture Foreign Trade, and Agriculture Export, Dinesh Pratap Singh, said the deliberations and recommendations from the NSC would act as a blueprint for strengthening U.P.’s seed systems, and make the State a hub for quality seed production. “With the right strategies, we can empower farmers by providing them access to better quality seeds, including hybrids, biofortified crops, and vegetable seeds, which will boost productivity and profitability,” he said, adding that discussions on developing seed parks, enhancing public-private partnerships, and empowering farmers as seed entrepreneurs were encouraging. “The outcomes of these deliberations will be implemented with the full support of the State government to ensure food security, economic growth, and the welfare of our farmers,” he said. Director General of the International Rice Research Institute (IRRI) Yvonne Pinto said the challenges posed by climate change, malnutrition, and food insecurity require collective action, and events such as the NSC provided the foundation for transformative solutions. The event was jointly organised by the Union Agriculture Ministry and the IRRI. Dr. Pinto said the integration of biofortified rice into school nutrition programmes, the promotion of hybrid varieties, and the adoption of climate-resilient practices were steps in the right direction.

Furthermore, home prices themselves can also be subject to fluctuations, and waiting for lower interest rates may mean paying a higher price for a property later on. In a competitive housing market, delaying a purchase in the hope of securing a lower mortgage rate could result in missing out on desirable properties or facing increased competition from other buyers.

The Nashville Predators have worked plenty of overtime lately but have yet to be rewarded. They will try to escape their rut when they visit the Toronto Maple Leafs on Wednesday night. Nashville has lost three straight games 3-2 in overtime. Its latest sudden-death setback came on Saturday at Minnesota in the opener of a four-game road swing. The trip moves to three Canadian cities, with games against the Maple Leafs, the Montreal Canadiens and the Ottawa Senators on tap. The Predators are hunting ways to energize their offense. They have scored two goals in each loss of their current four-game skid. "The last few games, we only scored two goals and it's tough because (goaltender Juuse Saros) is playing outstanding, giving us a chance," said Ryan O'Reilly, who scored a goal for Nashville on Saturday. "We can't (get over) that hump, that next goal is huge for us. It's frustrating, we get to OT and hopefully squeak it out there, and we just don't right now, and it's just extremely frustrating. "Obviously, there's some things with our effort that we have to be consistent with. But I know for myself, just as quick, it's a mental reset, usually when you're ready for this swing. And you know, it's a great opportunity to go on this (Canadian) swing and get some points and kind of rejuvenate ourselves. The opportunity is there. We have to kind of reset, refocus, and come out, guns blazing in Toronto." The Predators exchanged backup goaltenders with the Colorado Avalanche on Saturday when they acquired Justus Annunen, 24, and a 2025 sixth-round pick for Scott Wedgewood, 32. "We're getting a goaltender that's quite a bit younger," Nashville coach Andrew Brunette said. "(Wedgewood) was a really good veteran, really good for us, was a good personality. We'll probably miss that." The Maple Leafs have flourished since early November, winning nine of their last 11 games. Toronto has also won both games since Auston Matthews returned to the lineup after he missed nine contests with an upper-body injury. Matthews had two assists in his return Saturday, a 5-3 win at Tampa Bay, and he scored the Maple Leafs' first goal in Monday's 4-1 home win over Chicago. "Maybe not the cleanest game, definitely some things we can take away, but two points are two points," said Matthews, who has 14 points in 15 games this season. "Just try to clean it up and just try to be better here in the next game." The Maple Leafs killed off four penalties, including a five-on-three situation for 28 seconds in the second period, while Anthony Stolarz made 27 saves. Mitchell Marner earned two assists to extend his points streak to seven games (five goals, eight assists). "I thought we started off the way we wanted to and played our game," Toronto coach Craig Berube said after Monday's win. "Second period not so much, we just didn't make a play, couldn't win a battle, couldn't advance the puck well enough. "We just got hemmed in our own zone and then we took penalties, but our penalty kill was excellent and that was the difference in the game. And then our goalie, that's what it boils down to." Toronto defenseman Jake McCabe (upper-body injury) did not play on Monday but participated in practice on Tuesday. --Field Level MediaWEST PALM BEACH, Fla. (AP) — Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau returned home Saturday after his meeting with Donald Trump without assurances the president-elect will back away from threatened tariffs on all products from the major American trading partner. Trump called the talks “productive” but signaled no retreat from a pledge that Canada says unfairly lumps it in with Mexico over the flow of drugs and migrants into the United States. After the leaders’ hastily arranged dinner Friday night at Trump's Mar-a-Lago club in Florida, Trudeau spoke of “an excellent conversation" and said in a post later Saturday on X, accompanied by a photo of the two men seated a table and smiling, that he looked forward to “the work we can do together, again.” Trump said earlier on Truth Social that they discussed “many important topics that will require both Countries to work together to address.” For issues in need of such cooperation, Trump cited fentanyl and the “Drug Crisis that has decimated so many lives as a result of Illegal Immigration," fair trade deals "that do not jeopardize American Workers” and the U.S. trade deficit with its ally to the north. Trump asserted that the prime minister had made “a commitment to work with us to end this terrible devastation” of American families from fentanyl from China reaching the United States through its neighbors. The U.S., he said, “will no longer sit idly by as our Citizens become victims to the scourge of this Drug Epidemic.” The Republican president-elect has threatened to impose a 25% tax on all products entering the U.S. from Canada and Mexico as one of his first executive orders when he takes office in January. U.S. customs agents seized 43 pounds of fentanyl at the Canadian border last fiscal year, compared with 21,100 pounds at the Mexican border. On immigration, the U.S. Border Patrol made 56,530 arrests at the Mexican border in October alone and 23,721 arrests at the Canadian border between October 2023 and September 2024 — and Canadian officials say they are ready to make new investments in border security. Trudeau called Trump after the Republican's social media posts about the tariffs last Monday and they agreed to meet, according to a official familiar with the matter who was not authorized to publicly discuss detail of the private talks. The official said other countries are calling Canadian officials to hear how about how the meeting was arranged and to ask for advice. Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum, after speaking with Trump on the telephone, said Thursday she was confident a tariff war with Washington would be averted. At the dinner that was said to last three hours, Trump said he and Trudeau also discussed energy, trade and the Arctic. A second official cited defense, Ukraine, NATO, China, the Mideast, pipelines and the Group of Seven meeting in Canada next year as other issues that arose. Trudeau's office said in a statement that the leaders “shared a productive wide-ranging discussion” centering on “collaboration and strengthening our relationship,” adding, "As Canada’s closest friend and ally, the United States is our key partner, and we are committed to working together in the interests of Canadians and Americans.” Trump, during his first term as president, once called Trudeau “weak” and “dishonest,” but it was the prime minister who was the first G7 leader to visit Trump since the Nov. 5 election. "Tariffs are a crucial issue for Canada and a bold move was in order. Perhaps it was a risk, but a risk worth taking,” Daniel Béland, a political science professor at McGill University in Montreal. Trudeau had said before leaving from Friday that Trump was elected because he promised to bring down the cost of groceries but now was talking about adding 25% to the cost of all kinds of products, including potatoes from Prince Edward Island in Atlantic Canada. “It is important to understand that Donald Trump, when he makes statements like that, he plans on carrying them out. There’s no question about it,” Trudeau said. “Our responsibility is to point out that he would not just be harming Canadians, who work so well with the United States, but he would actually be raising prices for Americans citizens as well and hurting American industry and business,” he added. The threatened tariffs could essentially blow up the North American trade pact that Trump’s team negotiated during his first term. Trudeau noted they were able to successfully renegotiate the deal, which he calls a “win win” for both countries. When Trump imposed higher tariffs as president, other countries responded with retaliatory tariffs of their own. Canada, for instance, announced billions of new duties in 2018 against the U.S. in a response to new taxes on Canadian steel and aluminum. Canada is the top export destination for 36 U.S. states. Nearly $3.6 billion Canadian (US $2.7 billion) worth of goods and services cross the border each day. About 60% of U.S. crude oil imports are from Canada, and 85% of U.S. electricity imports are from Canada. Canada is also the largest foreign supplier of steel, aluminum and uranium to the U.S. and has 34 critical minerals and metals that the Pentagon is eager for and investing in for national security. Canada is one of the most trade-dependent countries in the world, and 77% of Canada’s exports go to the U.S. ___ Gillies reported from Toronto.

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — A fight broke out at midfield after Michigan stunned No. 2 Ohio State 13-10 on Saturday as Wolverines players attempted to plant their flag and were met by Buckeyes who confronted them.
