The injury news for the 49ers was twice as bad as expected Monday. Running back Christian McCaffrey will go on injured reserve with a posterior cruciate ligament strain that may not need surgery, but is serious enough to sideline him for the season. To make matters worse, Jordan Mason, the 49ers’ leading rusher, will also “most likely” go on IR and could miss the remainder of the season. The 49ers are coming off a 35-10 road loss to the Buffalo Bills and will host the Chicago Bears Sunday at Levi’s Stadium with fading playoff hopes at 5-7 that just took another blow with the loss of two key offensive performers. Also going on injured reserve will be defensive tackle Kevin Givens, who returned from a groin injury but sustained a torn pectoral against Buffalo. Shanahan said in a conference call with reporters that he hasn’t had a chance to speak with McCaffrey, who played in just three games after missing the offseason and training camp with bilateral Achilles tendinitis and had 53 yards on seven carries before being injured on a 19-yard gain in the

Heartbreak has struck the 49ers family again with the news that the newborn son of left tackle Trent Williams died on Nov. 24. Sondra Williams, the wife of the 49ers’ tackle, said in an Instagram post the baby had been diagnosed with Trisomy 13 — a rare genetic condition — and that a twin daughter had been lost earlier in the pregnancy. “My Forever Angel, Trenton O’Brien Williams Jr.  It’s been extremely hard trying to process the saddest Hello and Goodbye that I’ve ever had to endure,” Sondra Williams wrote. “My first born and only son, I’ve always wanted you. But God wanted and needed you more . . . I’m at peace knowing you will never have to suffer. Although I will never hear your soft coos and cries or see those beautiful little eyes staring up at me, I am grateful to God for the time I shared with you.” Coach Kyle Shanahan confirmed the painful news Monday on a conference call with reporters, saying Trent Williams “was at the hospital with her and got to meet him and say bye. Then he had to

By Kelly McCarthy Monday, December 2, 2024 9:10PM Southwest Airlines will soon be implementing some changes to its “prepare for landing” protocol, ending its in-flight cabin service earlier than ever in an effort to reduce possible risk of injury. Southwest Airlines will soon be implementing some changes to its “prepare for landing” protocol, ending its in-flight cabin service earlier than ever in an effort to reduce possible risk of injury. Starting Dec. 4, Southwest flight attendant crews will wrap up in-flight service at 18,000 feet to begin preparing the cabin for landing sooner, a spokesperson for the Dallas-based carrier confirmed to ABC News. What does ending cabin service earlier mean for Southwest passengers? On Southwest flights, the process of passengers buckling up, raising their seat backs, and putting away tray tables and electronics will begin about 10 minutes earlier than previous flights when cabin service concludes at 10,000 feet. A Southwest Airlines jetliner approaches at Denver International Airport Friday, May 26, 2023, in Denver.

HARTFORD, Mich. — The Great Lakes region saw new snow Monday and faced the prospect of even more this week after U.S. travelers battled harsh weather to get home after Thanksgiving, forecasters said. Snow showers fell in western Michigan overnight, and heavier, persistent snow of up to a foot was expected to follow Monday, the National Weather Service said. More snow is expected Wednesday and Thursday, along with gusty winds and freezing temperatures. “Bands of lake effect snowfall will impact mainly lakeshore locations through the morning commute. This will lead to sudden changes in the visibility and snow covered roadways,” the weather service’s office in Grand Rapids, Michigan, posted online early Monday. More than a dozen vehicles were involved in a crash in intense lake-effect snow that brought near-whiteout conditions along Interstate 94 near Hartford, according to Michigan State Police. At least one driver was critically injured, police said. The road was closed in both directions. Lake-effect snow warnings were in effect through Tuesday night in parts of Ohio, New York and Pennsylvania. Parts of New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Michigan and Wisconsin were under winter

SAN JOSE – San Jose Sharks center Macklin Celebrini has notched another career first, as he was named the NHL’s First Star of the Week for his efforts during the last week of November. Celebrini had four goals – including two game-winners – and three assists in four games for the Sharks, who went 3-1-0 last week, including a home-and-home series sweep of the Seattle Kraken on Friday and Saturday. Celebrini had game-winning goals in both the Sharks’ 7-2 victory over the Los Angeles Kings on Nov. 26, and San Jose’s 8-5 win over the Kraken. Both games were at SAP Center. Against the Kings, Celebrini had two goals and an assist, making him, at 18 years, 165 days, the youngest player in Sharks franchise history to record a three-point game. Patrick Marleau had the previous team mark of 18 years, 171 days, set on March 5, 1998, when he had a goal and two assists in a game against the Detroit Red Wings. On Sunday, Celebrini was named the NHL’s Rookie of the Month for November. Going into Tuesday’s Sharks game against the Washington

On Wednesday, the Supreme Court will hear arguments in a case involving Tennessee’s ban on gender-affirming care for transgender people under age 18. At least 26 states have adopted laws restricting or banning such care for minors, and most of those states face lawsuits. The nation’s top court will be weighing whether Tennessee’s law violates the equal protection clause of the 14th Amendment, requiring that people in similar circumstances be treated the same under the law. Both sides in the case claim they are acting to protect minors from harm. Gender-affirming care is supported by the American Medical Association, the American Academy of Pediatrics and other medical groups. Here’s a look at what’s typically involved: Evaluation and diagnosis happen first Young people who persistently identify as a gender that differs from their sex assigned at birth are often referred to clinics where teams from various medical specialties provide gender-affirming care. Such care begins with an evaluation, which can include a pediatrician and a mental health specialist who assess the degree of distress, if any, the young person is experiencing. Those who meet defined criteria may

By Shalina Chatlani, Stateline.org (TNS) Trevor Hawkins, an attorney at Legal Aid of Arkansas, remembers how busy his job got when the state for a time imposed work requirements on Medicaid recipients: His office was swamped with frantic phone calls from people who said they couldn’t comply with the new rule because they weren’t healthy enough to work or had to care for sick relatives. “A whole heap of folks, after a month or two, started getting notices saying, ‘Hey, you’re out of compliance, and you’re going to lose your coverage,’” Hawkins told Stateline. For many people, he said, keeping their coverage was “absolutely vital to maintaining their health or getting better so they might work again.” In June 2018, Arkansas became the first state to require some Medicaid recipients to work, volunteer, go to school or participate in job training to receive benefits. By the time a federal judge halted the policy in April 2019, 18,000 adults had lost coverage. Arkansas was one of 13 states that received permission to impose work rules on at least some Medicaid recipients during the last Trump administration.

By GABRIEL SANDOVAL, Associated Press/Report for America PHOENIX (AP) — Reyna Montoya was 10 when she and her family fled violence in Tijuana and illegally immigrated to the U.S. Growing up in Arizona, she worried even a minor traffic violation could lead to her deportation. She didn’t feel relief until 11 years later in 2012, when she received a letter confirming she had been accepted to a new program for immigrants who came to the country illegally as children. “All of the sudden, all these possibilities opened up,” Montoya said, fighting back tears. The Obama-era Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program granted her and hundreds of thousands of others two-year, renewable permits to live and work in the U.S. legally. But as President-elect Donald Trump prepares to return to the White House, after an unsuccessful bid to end DACA in his first term, the roughly 535,000 current recipients are bracing yet again for a whirlwind of uncertainty. Meanwhile, a years-long challenge to DACA could ultimately render it illegal, leaving people like Montoya without a shield from deportation. “I have to take (Trump’s) words very seriously

By LINDSAY WHITEHURST WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court will hear a vaping case on Monday, weighing federal regulators’ decisions blocking sweet vaping products after e-cigarette use spiked among kids. The high court is taking up an appeal from the Food and Drug Administration, which has denied more than a million applications to sell candy- or fruit-flavored products that appeal to kids. Those decisions are part of a crackdown that anti-tobacco advocates say helped drive down youth vaping to a decade low after an “epidemic level” peak in 2019. But vaping companies pushed back in court, arguing that agency unfairly disregarded arguments that their sweet e-liquid products aren’t a big draw for kids but would help adults quit smoking traditional cigarettes. The case comes shortly before the inauguration of President-elect Donald Trump, whose incoming administration could take a different approach after he vowed in a September social-media post to “save” vaping. Several lower courts rebuffed vaping company lawsuits, but the Dallas-based company Triton Distribution won at the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals. The court tossed out a decision blocking the sale of nicotine-laced liquids like
