A drone carrying steak, crab legs, cigarettes and cannabis was intercepted by prison guards, according to authorities at the Lee Correctional Institution in South Carolina. Images of the contraband were posted by the South Carolina Department of Corrections, and feature two cartons of smokes, a large sealed bag of marijuana and a tin of Old Bay seasoning. “Seems some folks were planning an early holiday Old Bay crab boil and steak dinner along with their marijuana and cigarettes—all dropped by a drone at Lee CI,” the department said. According to the Associated Press, the drone was seized on Sunday morning, before inmates could reach it, although no arrests have been made. Prisons spokesperson Chrysti Shain said, “I’m guessing the inmates who were expecting the package are crabby.” In South Carolina, flying a drone near a prison can land you 30 days in jail, while dropping contraband can earn you up to 10 years inside. It comes after Xavier Martez Delesline, 33, became the second inmate in a week to die at the facility on Wednesday, after he was allegedly assaulted in a common area, WIS10 reports. Officers are treating it as a “suspected homicide.” It comes one day after a fatal assault on inmate Mario Leven Harrison.

A Grammy-nominated bass player was killed while walking his dog when he was struck by an SUV driven by a woman with at least 100 previous arrests. Roderick “Rory” MacLeod, 70, was declared dead after being hit on Saturday morning in Hopkinton, Rhode Island. His pet survived the crash and ran back to the family home. MacLeod was a longtime member of the band Roomful of Blues, which earned three Grammy nominations in the 1980s when he was its bassist. He was remembered as “upbeat and cheerful” by his former bandmate Doug James, with another band member paying tribute to “a good friend, bandmate, and wonderful spirit who was tragically stolen from us Saturday morning by a reckless driver.” The driver, identified as Sharon Godbut, 41 “left her lane and struck several objects, including two telephone poles and the pedestrian walking his dogs,” police said. She was arrested and found in possession of “numerous illegal narcotics and packaging materials commonly associated with drug distribution.” Police said she had previously been arrested over 100 times, issued 82 court warrants and 40 traffic citations. She was arraigned Tuesday.

The dramatic moment a tourist plunged 50 feet down a cliff after trying to take a selfie has been caught on camera. The incident on Huaying Mountain in Guang’an, China, saw the man teetering on the edge of the narrow path, phone raised as he tried to take a photograph on Sunday. TMZ reports the man miraculously survived the fall off the 130-foot cliff, with local outlets reporting he only fell 50 feet down. A clunk can be heard in the footage as the man loses his balance, before disappearing from view as the rest of his group react, peering over the edge. Astonishingly, he reportedly posted a message on the social media platform WeChat after the incident, saying, “The mountain Gods blessed me. I’m so lucky. I fell from a 40m high cliff and rolled down the slope for nearly 15 meters. When the rocks collapsed, I thought I was going to die. It’s so good to be alive. So I’ll live well!”

A British Airways flight was forced to circle Edinburgh Airport, Scotland, six times before making an emergency landing after its landing gear got stuck during takeoff, according to British news reports. BA Flight 1443 departed the Scottish capital at 11 a.m. for a short flight south to London, expected to take around an hour. But just five minutes after takeoff, the pilots sounded the alarm after the plane’s wheels became stuck in the down position, Business Insider reported. The aircraft circled over the town of Stirling six times until it was cleared for an emergency landing. The airport touched back down in Edinburgh at 12.16 p.m. and remained on the tarmac for an additional hour while technicians fixed the issue, causing a further 15 flights to be delayed or diverted. Most flights were diverted to nearby Glasgow, about 50 miles away, but one KLM flight was forced to turn around and head back to Amsterdam, and a Qatar Airways flight was diverted to Manchester Airport, nearly 200 miles away. The incident was the second significant disruption at the airport in just four days, following a major IT failure that diverted dozens of flights to airports across the U.K. and Ireland.

A Russian Antonov AN-22 military transport plane crash-landed in the country’s Ivanovo region, killing all on board, according to multiple news reports. The crash, which occurred on a test flight following maintenance work, saw the plane go down in an uninhabited area about 125 miles northeast of Moscow, the Russian Ministry of Defense confirmed in a statement. Seven people were on board the flight, AFP reported, citing the Russian state news agency Tass. The aircraft’s registration is still unknown, they added. Russian media reports that the plane plummeted into a nearby reservoir in the Furmanovsky District, with rescuers so far only able to recover fragments of the destroyed aircraft. The Aviation Safety Network said the dead were five crew and two passengers. Designed in Kyiv in the 1960s, the AN-22 Antei is the world’s largest turboprop-powered transport aircraft and remains in limited service for heavy military logistics. Throughout its 50-plus-year service history, only 68 models were built, and only three are still believed to be in working condition. In 2024, Russian General Vladimir Venediktov said the craft would be retired from active service later that year. Aerospace Global News reported that the strain caused by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has forced the Kremlin to increasingly rely on outdated Soviet-era technology as the country struggles with severe equipment shortages on the front lines.

A jet plane engineer has been hospitalized after falling 20 feet onto a concrete floor while doing work on a jet, according to The Sun. First responders were called to the British Airways’ Engineering Base at Heathrow Airport, London. A London Ambulance Service spokesperson said, “Our first paramedics arrived on scene in approximately four minutes. We treated a man at the scene and took him to a major trauma center as a priority. His condition has been described as “serious.” BA and the U.K.’s Health & Safety Executive have both launched investigations. A source told the British Sun newspaper, “This type of accident is incredibly rare and has sent shockwaves through the BA community. The mechanic was assessing the safety of a jet in a routine inspection when he suddenly fell at least 20ft onto concrete... It really didn’t look good, and everyone is saying their prayers for him.” BA said in a statement to the newspaper, “Our thoughts are with our colleague, and we’re supporting them, their family, and their colleagues. Safety is always our highest priority, and we’re assisting the authorities with their enquiries.”

Honduras has put out an international arrest warrant for its former leader days after he was released from a U.S. prison thanks to a pardon by President Donald Trump. The country’s former president, Juan Orlando Hernández, who served from 2014 to 2022, was arrested less than a month after leaving office and later extradited to the United States to face drug-trafficking and weapons charges. He was then sentenced to 45 years in prison. Speaking to reporters last week, Trump insisted that Hernández’s arrest and conviction were a “Biden set-up,” even though the prosecution began during Trump’s first term. The president issued a formal pardon for Hernández on Dec. 1, leading to his release from a federal prison in West Virginia last week. But his legal trouble has not ended, as the Honduran attorney general, Johel Antonio Zelaya Alvarez, announced on Monday that he had issued an international warrant for the arrest of Hernández, citing money laundering and fraud charges that date back to his first term. “We have been wounded by the tentacles of corruption and by the criminal networks that have deeply scarred the life of our country,” Zelaya wrote on X. The Department of Justice said previously that he had overseen “years of destructive narco-trafficking of the highest imaginable magnitude.”

Effigies depicting the devil and U.S. President Donald Trump have been burned in a celebration to cast off evil and usher in the start of the holiday season. People partied in the streets as one demonic figure, Trump’s head nestled in its hand, lit up the night’s sky in Guatemala City, Guatemala, on Sunday. A second featured the president’s horned head atop a demonic crab-like beast elsewhere in the capital on the same night. Speaking to Global News via translation, an event organizer known only as Diablo 1, said, “There is always a character that attracts all the attention and comments. This year it happened to a figure already plagued with so much controversy, not only in this country, but around the world. Namely, the ‘little tyrant’ of the United States who has done a lot of harm to our Latin people and especially our Guatemalan brothers.” It isn’t the first time the annual “La Quema del Diablo,” or “Burning of the Devil,” has featured Trump, who was also the star of one such celebration in the same city in 2016. Satan and Trump have also been spoofed together in the U.S. this year, with the latest season of the TV show South Park running a plot line about the pair involved in a romantic relationship.

I’ve always approached so-called “miracle” beauty products with caution—lash and brow growth serum included. While these volumizing serums never struck me as outright gimmicks per se, I remained unconvinced that they could truly deliver the fuller, more voluminous lashes and naturally defined brows they promised. This perception changed when a close friend of mine with impossibly long lashes told me her secret was the GrandeLASH-MD Lash Enhancing Serum.

After hearing how quickly it transformed her lashes, I decided to try it myself. Although I’ve been fortunate to inherit long lashes genetically, they lacked depth and impact without mascara. Within three weeks of consistently using GrandeLASH-MD, I noticed my lashes looked darker and less sparse. By the six-week mark, the effect was striking enough that I *almost* looked as though I had lash extensions.

Given the impact that the brand’s lash serum made, I decided to give its GrandeBrow formula a shot. Like many of us who came of age in the late ’90s and early 2000s, I fell victim to the ultra-thin brow trend and overplucked mine into a sperm-like shape. Unfortunately, the damage lingered well into adulthood. In just four weeks, it revived my sparse, uneven brows to a fuller, bushier state (exactly the look I was going for). I’ve been using both serums consistently for almost five years now, and I’ve never experienced any side effects or irritation.

Whether you’re hoping to take a break from pricey lash extensions or want to correct thinning or overplucked brows, the Grande Cosmetics Lash & Brow Power Pair Set (available exclusively at Ulta) is a worthwhile investment—especially when it’s on sale. The set contains both the clinically-backed GrandeLASH-MD Lash Enhancing Serum and the GrandeBROW Brow Enhancing Serum. For a limited time, score the power couple for just $72 (a $141 value).

Brendan Fraser told action hero Dwayne Johnson he owes him a “debt of gratitude” for his support with the Oscar-winning movie The Whale. The former co-stars of The Mummy Returns were speaking as part of the Actors on Actors series from CNN and Vanity Fair, released on Monday. Fraser, 57, won the Best Actor for his comeback performance as a morbidly obese man reconnecting with his daughter and told Johnson he considered him the “godfather” of the 2022 movie. “I also owe you a debt of gratitude because when I took The Whale... to Venice [film festival], they applauded for a very long time and stayed on their feet,” Fraser said. “You put your shoulder into that by showing your support through Twitter... Dwayne, you’re a godfather of sorts of the success of that project. I hope you know that.” Johnson said he’d been in tears watching the ovation in Venice, which sealed Fraser’s return to Hollywood stardom after a decade away from leading roles. “That moment rocked me and it moved me,” he said. “I see this long applause for you—you’re emotional, I’m emotional watching you get emotional! But also just in that moment, man, like, such joy for you... There it is, after all these years, that’s what you worked for.”

New audio from the cockpit of an Alaska Airlines plane captures the moment a paranoid, drug-addled pilot lunged at the safety levers in a bid to down the plane mid-flight. Horizon Flight 2059 was headed from Everett, Washington, to San Francisco, California, in October 2023 with off-duty pilot Joseph Emerson in the jumpseat. Newly released audio details the moment he made a beeline for the fire suppression levers, in an effort to stop the plane’s engines. “I’m not okay, I gotta get home,” he told the pilot, who sounded puzzled. A fracas then broke out, and the pilot radioed for help. “It’s Horizon 2059. We got a jump seater, just tried to shut our engines off, we need to go direct to Portland now,” he can be heard telling air traffic controllers in the audio. Emerson later told police at Portland International Airport that he was in the throes of a mental breakdown. He said he hadn’t slept in 48 hours and had taken psychedelic mushrooms. “I was trying to wake up. Cause I don’t feel like this is real,” he told cops. He was sentenced to time served and three years of supervised release, and later founded a charity focused on mental health among pilots.
