rookie running back Trevion Henderson has made
the most of his opportunity, filling in for injured
starter Ramondre Stevenson, who has missed the
past three games because of a toe injury. Henderson's
two touchdown runs and one receiving touchdown
helped the Patriots to a 27 -14 victory over
the New York Jets on Thursday night, sparking
the question on whether he might assume a larger
role when Stevenson returns. The Patriots improved
to nine wins and two losses with the win, the
best record in the NFL, and won their eighth
in a row. Henderson became the second rookie
in Patriots history to have multiple rushing
touchdowns in consecutive games. He has seen
his playing time more than double during the
past three weeks with Stevenson out. The Jets
have failed to intercept a pass for 10 streak
games, tying the longest such streak in NFL history.

maybe 15, in the ongoing carriage negotiations
with U2 TV. Johnston stated on CNBC that his
company is ready to go as long as they want to.
This statement comes as reports indicated that
discussions between the two media giants have
become more productive. Johnston believes that
claims about legacy media losing marketplace
strength are an exaggeration. He added that Disney
has built a hedge into its guidance, anticipating
potential dollar impacts. Disney Chief Executive
Officer Bob Ager emphasized the importance of
closing a timely deal to ensure uninterrupted
service for consumers. Disney's streaming profits
grew, with Disney Plus adding 3 .8 million subscribers.

science. Google's DeepMind has cracked a century

Scientists have long struggled to predict how
fluids behave, especially their chaotic nature.
DeepMind's breakthrough offers valuable insights
into fluid dynamics. DeepMind researchers identified
new unstable singularities across three fluid
dynamics equations. This advancement may enhance
our understanding of turbulence, which affects
everything from aircraft drag to blood flow.
While not revolutionary, it is a meaningful step
forward in mathematical physics. Legendary documentary
filmmaker Ken Burns has been trying to tell the
story of America for 10 years. He emphasizes
the importance of a complicated origin story
