Final polls before Election Day show Democrat Abdul El-Sayed leading Republican Mike Rogers in Michigan's Senate race, for the seat being vacated by retiring Democrat Gary Peters. The New York Times/Siena poll put El-Sayed ahead 53 percent to 42 percent, AtlasIntel had him up 54 percent to 46 percent, and Emerson put him ahead 51 percent to 45 percent, with the polling average at about 5.3 points. The race remains close, with some surveys within the margin of error, and it is one of the key contests as both parties fight for control of the Senate.

A Nova Scotia real estate agent was met by armed police at her home after she refused to follow instructions from a caller pretending to be from a bank's fraud department. The caller claimed someone had applied for a credit card in her name and told her to download an app called CIBC Guard, but she declined and checked with a workplace IT specialist instead. About 20 minutes later the caller rang back and told her to go to her front door, where she found officers from the RCMP and Truro Police surrounding her property after a false report of a hostage situation. Police confirmed she was safe and the report was false, and the investigation is continuing. The bank has said no such app exists and it never asks customers to install software by phone.

NATO is rethinking how it would answer a Russian attack, moving from simply blocking an advance to striking back far inside Russian territory. At a first-ever Deep Strike Symposium in June, top officers and officials discussed hitting military bases, supply depots and industrial facilities behind the front line. The alliance's top commander, US Air Force General Alexus Grynkewich, has said defensive forces would first block an opening attack, then break the warfighting system behind it, using long-range missiles, rockets and drones. The plan stops short of nuclear weapons and draws heavily on lessons from Ukraine, where deep strikes on bases and industry have become a key part of defence.

Rachel Apa, a 24-year-old former college field hockey player from Pennsylvania, died after collapsing in Central Park during her first New York City Marathon, about two miles from the finish line. Her father, Steve Apa, followed the race from home through the tracking app and texted her at every mile. She told him early on that she had never felt better, but at mile 18 she texted back simply 'Ow', and again at mile 19. When she reached mile 23 he sent her a message reading 'Final stretch' — it went unanswered. Bystanders gave her CPR at the scene before she was taken to Mount Sinai Hospital, where she died that night. Her father said doctors blamed rhabdomyolysis, a rare condition in which muscle tissue breaks down.

Israel's opposition leaders, who have all backed Gadi Eisenkot for prime minister, are meeting in Herzliya on Tuesday in their first gathering since last week's close election left neither camp with a majority. Eisenkot's bloc won 48 seats to Benjamin Netanyahu's camp's 53, with Arab-majority lists holding a record 19 seats as potential kingmakers. Netanyahu says voters chose him as head of the largest party and has called for a broad government without the Arab parties, while the opposition remains split over whether to seek their support. President Isaac Herzog begins consultations on Wednesday and has until November 11 to pick who should try to form a government.

After a brain injury affecting his left frontal lobe, Edward Freytag developed perfect pitch, the rare ability to instantly name any musical note, even though he had previously only had good relative pitch. The injury also brought a surge of creativity, and he went on composing music. As his brain healed and his executive functions returned, the perfect pitch and creative surge faded, though he kept composing — his piece 'Brain Bleed', inspired by the experience, has since been performed live. His case is a rare reported example of acquired musical ability after brain injury, not proof that injury alone creates genius.

Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams has blacked out the logo on his cleats, saying he wants to 'calm things down' after risking $12,000 in NFL fines. The quarterback's footwear had drawn the league's attention over uniform rules, and Williams said the change was about avoiding further trouble and keeping the focus on football. The move comes as the Bears continue their climb up the standings in Week 9.

US job openings rose by 333,000 to 7.52 million in September, beating forecasts of about 7.1 million, according to the Labor Department's JOLTS report. Hiring increased by 131,000 to 5.4 million, while layoffs fell to 1.64 million, the lowest since March 2025. The figures, released ahead of Friday's payrolls report, suggest the labor market is holding up even as hiring stays modest, in what economists describe as a low-hire, low-fire market.

Less than two weeks into the NBA season, the 2026 rookie class has already made history, setting a record with five 30-point games in October, the most ever in the season's opening month. Sacramento's Darius Acuff Jr. scored 30 or more three times, with Yaxel Lendeborg and Caleb Wilson adding one each, while Memphis' Cameron Boozer recorded a triple-double in an unbeaten start and top pick AJ Dybantsa averaged 18 points in his first two games. The early returns suggest this could be one of the deepest rookie classes in years.

Sony has removed its PSVR 2 virtual reality headset from the PlayStation web store in the United States and Japan, in what looks like a winding down of sales of the PS5 headset.

Sony has not officially announced a discontinuation, and the headset remains listed in the UK and parts of Europe.

Windows 11 is testing a shortcut that lets users open apps from a connected Android phone straight from taskbar Search. In the Insider Experimental Preview Build, typing an app's name shows it as a “Mobile app” result, and choosing it launches the app on the phone and mirrors it on the PC through Phone Link. The app still runs on the phone rather than natively on Windows, and the feature is limited to selected phones from makers including Samsung, HONOR, OPPO, ASUS, vivo, Xiaomi, iQOO and Realme running Android 11 or later.

President Donald Trump said on Tuesday that the United States is close to making a trade deal with Canada soon. Speaking on Fox News' Fox and Friends, he said that as part of the deal Canada would give fertilizer to the United States without any tariffs. The remarks follow recent positive signals from both sides about the future of trade between the two countries.

California Governor Gavin Newsom has proposed expanding the state's film and television tax credit program from $750 million to at least $1 billion a year, and extending it through 2040. The plan would add tax credits for above-the-line pay for actors, directors, writers and producers, set aside $100 million a year for independent productions, and reward companies that commit to more than one production in the state. The goal is to keep productions and jobs in Hollywood as other states and countries offer rival incentives, but the proposal still needs approval from the state legislature.

Zhang Shengmin, vice chair of China's Central Military Commission, has met Russian Defence Minister Andrei Belousov in Beijing, according to China's Defence Ministry. Zhang said Beijing wants to work with Moscow to strengthen strategic communication and mutual trust in the military field and to explore more areas of cooperation. It was the first publicly known meeting Zhang has held with a minister from another country since his promotion to the Communist Party's Politburo last week, and he and President Xi Jinping are now the only two active members of China's supreme military command after an anti-corruption purge removed five of its seven members.

A 35-year study from Northwestern University has challenged the idea that cannabis helps people sleep better. Researchers followed more than 1,200 adults from young adulthood into middle age and found that greater lifetime cannabis use was linked to poorer sleep measured by wrist monitors, including more fragmented sleep and longer spells awake during the night, even though users themselves did not rate their sleep as worse. The findings, published in JAMA Network Open, show an association rather than proof that cannabis causes the disruption, but the authors say the data do not support using it as a sleep aid.

The impact of deep-sea mining on the seafloor ecosystem is still visible 44 years after a patch of seabed was mined, according to new research. Scientists found that the disturbed area has still not fully recovered decades on, a finding that raises fresh questions about how quickly the deep ocean can heal and what large-scale mining of the seabed could mean for fragile marine life.
