WEEKEND TOP STORIES

-------------------------------------

------------------

SATURDAY

------------------

ELECTION-2024-DEMOCRACY -- Donald Trump's resounding win for a second term exposed American's deep divide over how they view democracy and threats to the country's nearly 240-year-old form of government. UPCOMING: 1,000 words, photos by 12:30 p.m.

BRITAIN-AGING-VETERAN'S-MARCH -- Michael Woods has visited his wife, Mary, every day since she moved into a nursing home two years ago. But on Sunday, the 100-year-old Royal Air Force veteran will skip the daily get-together so he can fulfill another duty -- honoring the men he served with during World War II. For the first time since he left the RAF in 1947, Woods will take part in Britain's national Remembrance Day service. UPCOMING: 630 words, photos by 12:30 a.m.

EDUCATION-2024-EDUCATION-SCHOOL-CHOICE -- Initiatives to expand ways of using public money for private schools failed in several states on Election Night, but advocates of school choice will soon have a strong advocate in the White House again. President-elect Donald Trump supports state and federal-level universal school choice. UPCOMING: 900 words, photos, by 12:30 a.m.

CLIMATE-COP29-HOST-CITY -- Diplomats from across the world will descend on the Azerbaijani capital of Baku for the annual climate summit, known as COP29, to discuss how to avoid the increasing threats from climate change in a place that was one of the birthplaces of the oil industry. But the country has come under fire from multiple organizations that allege Azerbaijan's commitment to the green energy transition amounts to greenwashing. UPCOMING: 1,180 words, photos by 12:30 a.m.

MED-BE-WELL-STROKE-RISK -- The majority of strokes could be prevented, according to new guidelines aimed at helping people and their doctors do just that. The first new guidelines on stroke prevention in 10 years from the American Heart Association include recommendations for people and doctors that reflect a better understanding of who gets strokes and why, along with new drugs that can help reduce risk. UPCOMING: 800 words, photos by 9 a.m.

ELECTION-2024-SATURDAY-NIGHT-LIVE -- Eight years after "Saturday Night Live" opened its post-presidential election episode with Kate McKinnon dressed as Hillary Clinton singing "Hallelujah," what will the 2024 version look like? Just one week after Democratic nominee Kamala Harris appeared on the show, the sketch comedy series celebrating its 50th season will tackle Republican Donald Trump's win, with comedian Bill Burr hosting and Charli XCX performing. UPCOMING: 300 words, photos by 9 a.m. Will be updated after the show.

-----------------

SUNDAY

-----------------

ELECTION-2024-AP-VOTECAST-BLACK-LATINO-MEN -- Black and Latino voters moved just enough toward President elect Donald Trump to help him win the electoral college, according to exit polling by AP VoteCast. But it's Trump's support among young Black and Latino men that helped expand his resounding lead over Vice President Kamala Harris. Her losses with these groups largely became Trump's gains as he locked down his traditionally older, white base and slightly expanded into a winning coalition. UPCOMING: 900 words, photos by 12:30 a.m.

TRUMP-SPORTS-DIPLOMACY -- FIFA President Gianni Infantino was quick to congratulate Donald Trump on his election win. International Olympic Committee President Thomas Bach hasn't said anything at all. What's behind the different responses to Trump's re-election and why does it matter who's in the White House as the U.S. prepares to host the 2026 World Cup and the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics? UPCOMING: 800 words, photos by 6 a.m.

CLIMATE-COP29-HUMAN-RIGHTS -- Representatives from more than 200 countries will arrive in the South Caucasus nation of Azerbaijan in November for the U.N. climate conference known this year as COP29. Azerbaijan will be under scrutiny and its human rights record will be in the spotlight. UPCOMING: 900 words, photos by 12:30 a.m.

-----------------

MONDAY

------------------

SCI-SUPERMOON -- Better catch this week's supermoon. It will be a while until the next one. This will be the year's fourth and final supermoon, looking bigger and brighter than usual. UPCOMING: 320 words, photos by 9 a.m.

CLIMATE-COP29-WHAT'S-AT-STAKE -- Experts calculate that curbing and coping with global warming is going to cost trillions of dollars and poor nations just don't have it. As United Nations climate negotiations start in Azerbaijan, the chief issue is who must ante up to help them and especially how much money it will involve. UPCOMING: 1,200 words, photos by 12:30 a.m.
