Dakota Ditcheva hints at leaving PFL after beating the best they can offer her | Sporting NewsVincenzo Italiano is glad Dan Ndoye ‘finally’ broke his goal drought with a double and trusts his Bologna teammates can follow suit . ‘We could have many, many more goals.’ The Rossoblu were in dire need of a boost after two consecutive defeats to Lazio in Serie A and Lille in the Champions League. Despite again being terribly wasteful in front of goal, Italiano’s men benefited from two fairly soft penalty kicks and the third was set up for Dan Ndoye by impressive substitute Riccardo Orsolini. “I am pleased with the reaction after two defeats, this is where you can see the team is alive and has character. This game was very, very important for many reasons, that is one of them, another is our position in the table,” “I am glad that Ndoye finally scored, that Orso came off the bench, scored and assisted. This is what we wanted, because if we had failed to get a result this evening too, it would’ve affected our morale. “I think thanks to this victory we are gearing up for the Coppa Italia in good shape.” They will be back on the pitch on Tuesday in the Coppa Italia Round of 16 against Monza, then visit Juventus next Saturday in Serie A. Italiano’s Bologna still have a game in hand to be played against Milan, a fixture that was called off due to flood warnings in the city, but are still on 21 points from 13 Serie A games. It is an impressive haul, especially compared to their Champions League results, where “Playing every three days, we need to do our training during the matches, as there is practically no time to prepare games. This is an area where we need to grow and I saw in 95 minutes that we showed improvement,” continued Italiano. “The second half was better than the first, we shook off the issues of recent matches, won back the ball repeatedly. It’s true we need to score more goals considering our chances and have to improve in our finishing, but it was a good result.” Bologna caused a shock by finishing fifth in Serie A last season and qualifying for the Champions League, so are they aiming to get back in next term? “I already said in our most recent press conference, it’s good that we are closing the gap and need to stay in the slipstream of the top sides. We’ve got to hang in there and try to reach the midway stage of the season in that position,” added Italiano. “The Champions League is helping us to grow and get stronger, it is a learning curve for the team. As Jose Mourinho says, the Champions League is a tournament where details make the difference and perhaps this is where we are lacking. I don’t know if it’s experience, quality or attitude, but our performances have overall been good in Europe, we just lose because of details. “We’ve been able to cause huge problems for quality opponents and tend to keep the game alive until the closing stages. There are three games to go, you never know what will happen if some of those strikers wake up one day and decide to thump them into the top corner.” With tonight’s brace, Ndoye took his career total to three Serie A goals, while Thijs Dallinga is still waiting for his first in the Bologna jersey. “Ndoye honestly could’ve had many, many more goals in Serie A and Europe. He has to focus and apply himself in training, because he’s got the quality, he just needs to learn how to get that ball in the net,” concluded Italiano. “Dallinga also needs to be more efficient in front of goal, but he is showing more dynamism, he’s more involved in what the team is doing and I am convinced he too will break his duck soon.”
How Ancient Archaea Survive Extreme Heat: Insights From Indian Scientists' Research(The Center Square) – The House is set to vote on the compromise version of the National Defense Authorization Act which authorizes nearly $900 billion to support U.S. military service members, infrastructure, and defense capabilities during the 2025 fiscal year. The 1,813-page document released Saturday by the Senate and House Armed Services Committees outlines U.S. defense policy priorities and their costs for 2025. Most of the proposed funds, $849.9 billion out of the $895.2 billion topline, would go to programs within the Department of Defense. Though the result of a bipartisan compromise, some provisions remain a point of contention, including a Republican addition that prohibits the military’s health program from covering any gender dysphoria treatments on minors that could "result in sterilization.” Ranking Member of the House Armed Services Committee Adam Smith, D-Wash., has urged House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., to “abandon” the provision and allow the House to bring forward a bill that “doesn’t attack the transgender community.” Johnson has argued that the current NDAA will “restore our focus on military lethality and to end the radical woke ideology being imposed on our military.” If the legislation passes, junior enlisted service members would receive a historic 14.5% pay raise and all other service members a 4.5% basic pay raise. The NDAA plan would also address multiple quality of life issues for service members, highlighted in a September report from the Government Accountability Office that revealed unsanitary and rundown living conditions for military personnel. It authorizes $2.7 billion to improve housing conditions, build more housing, and increase oversight. It also increases healthcare access and childcare services for military members by cutting red tape and approving $176 million for the construction of new childcare centers and $110 million for the construction of new schools. More from this section “Funding our military is one of Congress' most important responsibilities,” House Foreign Affairs Committee Majority Chairman, Michael McCaul, R-Texas, said on X. “Our brave men and women in uniform and their spouses allow us to enjoy the freedoms we have today. They deserve every benefit in this bill.” The legislation authorizes hundreds of billions in defense-related infrastructure and technology investments, including approximately $17.5 billion for military base or industrial construction projects; $33.5 billion to build seven battle force ships; and more than $161 billion for innovation and technology research and related programs. Nearly $16 billion would go to the Pacific Deterrence Initiative, funding new technologies like hypersonic weapons and AI to deter the Chinese Communist Party and mitigate espionage and cybersecurity risks. Anti-terrorism initiatives in the Middle East and overseas U.S. military construction projects countering North Korea and Russia would also receive funding, as well as a U.S.-Israel missile defense program and the Taiwan Security Cooperation Initiative. “We remain determined to confront increasingly hostile threats from Communist China, Russia, and Iran, and this legislation provides our military with the tools they need to deter our enemies,” Johnson said in a statement. “The safety and security of the American people is top priority, and this bill ensures our military has the resources and capabilities needed to remain the most powerful force in the world.” U.S. border security receives a relatively small portion of funds from the NDAA, with $90 million authorized for the construction of a new command and control facility at the U.S.-Mexico border and a $10 million increase in funding for the DOD’s counternarcotics activities. The House Rules Committee is set to vote Monday afternoon on advancing the measure to the House floor, where it can pass with a majority vote. The Senate must vote on it by the end of the month for it to take effect.
Madera wins thriller for D3 title berthTikTok asked a federal appeals court Monday to bar the Biden administration from enforcing a law that could lead to a ban on the popular platform until the Supreme Court reviews its challenge to the statute. The legal filing was made after a panel of three judges on the same court sided with the government last week and ruled that the law, which requires TikTok’s China-based parent company ByteDance to divest its stakes in the social media company or face a ban, was constitutional. If the law is not overturned, both TikTok and its parent company ByteDance, which is also a plaintiff in the case, claim the popular app will shut down by Jan. 19, 2025. TikTok has more than 170 million American users, the companies say. Attorneys for the two companies wrote that even if a shutdown lasted one month, it would cause TikTok to lose about a third of its daily users in the U.S. It’s not clear if the Supreme Court will take up the case. Attorneys for the two companies asked the appeals court to decide on the request for an enforcement pause by Dec. 16. The Department of Justice said Monday it will oppose the request.
