Barry Keoghan addressed his abrupt departure from Instagram after he deactivated his account on the platform Friday night. The actor took to X asking fans be “respectful” of him and his loved ones after his name was “dragged across the internet” following news of his breakup with Sabrina Carpenter on Tuesday. Since their split, internet rumors have swirled that Keoghan cheated on the pop star. Some suggested he had a tryst with influencer Breckie Hill, a claim Hill seemingly confirmed when she re-posted a TikTok about their speculated romance. Keoghan, however, made no mention of Hill in his statement. “The messages I have received no person should ever have to read them. Absolute lies, hatred, disgusting commentary about my appearance, character, how I am as a parent, and every other inhumane thing you can imagine,” the actor wrote , accusing trolls of “Knocking on my grannies door. Sitting outside my baby boys house intimidating them.” Keoghan, who has a young son, also pleaded with social media users to think of his child before they post about him. “I need you to remeber (sic) he has to read ALL of this about his father when he is older,” he said.

The family of Duck Dynasty star Phil Robertson, 78, said he is in the “early stages” of Alzheimer’s and battling another blood-born disease that is “causing problems with his entire body.” Robertson’s son Jase broke the news Friday on an episode of the Unashamed with the Robertson Family podcast. “Phil’s not doing well. We were trying to figure out the diagnosis, but according to the doctors, they are sure that he has some sort of blood disease causing all kinds of problems,” said Jase, 55. He added, “And he has early stages of Alzheimer’s. So, if you put those things together, he’s just not doing well.” Robertson rose to fame with the popularity of the hit 2012 A&E show, which followed the Louisiana family of seven as they operated their lucrative duck call and decoy business, Duck Commanders. When the show ended in 2017, Robertson became a conservative figurehead with his support of President-elect Donald Trump . According to Jase, Robertson is hoping to return to hosting the podcast. “I’m like, ‘Well Phil, you can barely walk around without crying out in pain, and your memory is not what it once was,’” said Jase. “He’s like, ‘Tell me about it.’” A Friday night NBA game between the San Antonio Spurs’ and the Sacramento Kings culminated in a tense moment after Spurs power forward Zach Collins was ejected from the game and flipped off a referee in anger. Collins was called for a hard foul on Kings’ star Domantas Sabonis and proceeded to protest the referee’s decision. This led to him receiving a technical foul, his second in just two quarters, prompting his removal from the game—but not before Collins gave the ref a piece of his mind by giving him the finger. Collins was then seen being consoled by his coaches before he headed off to the locker room. The Spurs ultimately lost 140-113 to the Kings, but the viral moment rippled through the internet. The Sporting News reported that Collins could receive a fine for the gesture, and social media commentators seemed to agree. “Welp there’s a suspension and a fine,” wrote one commentator on X . Another added, “Enjoy your 1 game suspension.” While other fans questioned the referee’s call after two other players, including Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant , faced similar ejections. “I like how all ejection in 3 games are against the kings,” a commentator added . That's the third straight game a Sacramento opponent has been ejected. Tonight, it was Zach Collins. Fair to say he wasn't happy afterward.

Sex toys are a fun and spicy way to add more excitement to the bedroom. However, most are designed for solo pleasure—which is a lot less exciting. MysteryVibe solved this issue with its Tenuto 2 vibrator. Now, MysteryVibe has improved its design and effectiveness in the new Tenuto Mini . The secret to the Tenuto Mini is the three robust motors that deliver powerful vibrations on key erogenous zones at the head or base of the penis. It’s made with a water-resistant and flexible silicone that fits most penis sizes, soft or hard. The vibrations stimulate the penis to increase blood flow and arousal for harder erections. Free Shipping However, that’s not all this small-yet-mighty vibrator can do. The Tenuto Mini keeps men harder longer. Slide the vibrator down to the base of the penis to gently constrict blood flow, extending performance and pleasure. Plus, those powerful motors don’t forget the clit exists, stimulating it as well for mind-blowing pleasure. Everything can be controlled via buttons on the vibrator itself or Bluetooth with the free companion app—opening up a whole new avenue of pleasure and play. With the app, you or your partner can explore and control 16 different vibrational intensity levels, fine-tuning the vibrator to both of your likings. Once you nailed it, save the vibration patterns for quick access for the next time. The only limitation is your imagination. Worried about privacy? MysteryVibe thought of that. The packaging is discreet and—as a bonus—the shipping is free. New York Police Department officials confirmed Friday they believe the man who fatally shot UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson outside a Midtown hotel on Wednesday morning has since fled the city, but they are continuing to search for evidence related to the crime—and the man responsible. Multiple news sources now report that authorities have found a backpack in the southern part of Central Park that they believe may have belonged to the as-yet unidentified shooter . The backpack was found along a possible escape route the suspect may have taken as he cycled through the park after the “targeted” attack on 50-year-old Thompson, as he was set to attend a meeting with United Healthcare investors. It has been sent, unopened, to a forensics lab for testing, according to CNN . Other evidence that the police have found so far include a burner phone, water bottle, a Starbucks coffee cup and even a candy wrapper. White nationalist and antisemitic podcaster Nick Fuentes was charged with battery last week after he allegedly assaulted a woman outside his Chicago-area home earlier in November. According to a Berwyn Police Department report obtained by The Smoking Gun , the woman, 57-year-old Marla Rose, said Fuentes “opened the door and immediately sprayed her face with pepper spray and pushed her with both hands on her upper body, causing her to fall backwards down the stairs and onto the concrete below.” Fuentes then grabbed her phone and went inside before coming back out with it moments later, according to the report. Video of the incident circulated online Friday, and Fuentes posted his apparent mugshot. Rose told the responding officer she had seen Fuentes’ post about abortion reading “Your body, my choice. Forever,” and initially wanted to record video of his property. A witness then encouraged her to speak with Fuentes, according to the report. Fuentes, the report states, told the responding officer he “posted a political joke online” and has since receiving death threats and unwanted visitors. He then “became uncooperative,” the report notes. Fuentes was charged and released on Nov. 27, and has a court date of Dec. 19. A manslaughter charge against Daniel Penny was dismissed Friday after a Manhattan jury couldn’t agree whether the former Marine was guilty in the death of Jordan Neely. The judge in the case, Maxwell Wiley, allowed prosecutors to have the charge dropped, while Penny’s attorneys had wanted Wiley to declare a mistrial. Penny still faces a charge of criminally negligent homicide for putting Neely in a six-minute chokehold on the New York City subway in May 2023, in an incident largely caught on cameras. Penny’s attorneys argued their client was justified in using the chokehold because witnesses had claimed Neely’s behavior was threatening, and that he had told passengers, “Somebody’s going to die today.” Prosecutors, meanwhile, noted that no witnesses had testified that Neely brandished a weapon or touched anybody, and that Penny kept Neely in the chokehold long after other passengers left the train. The manslaughter charge had carried a 15-year maximum prison sentence; for the lesser charge, Penny could face up to four years if convicted. The jury of seven women and five men will deliberate further on Monday. Walker, Texas Ranger star Chuck Norris announced that his mother Wilma has died at age 103. The martial arts star posted on Instagram Friday that his mother had passed away on Wednesday and “went home to be with Jesus.” Norris remembered his mother as “a woman of unwavering faith, a beacon of light in our lives.” Her love “reflected God’s grace,” said Norris, and his earliest memories are of her teaching him the importance of kindness. “I am so thankful for the countless lessons she shared, the prayers she lifted for us, and the way she embodied the love of Christ every day,” said Norris. Wilma grew up “in abject poverty” in Oklahoma, Kansas and California, married Norris’ father, Ray, and raised three boys. Despite her life’s struggles, Norris said his mother “filled our home with joy, and her hugs provided a sense of safety that we will forever cherish.” He added, “We love you, Mom. Until we meet again.” Scouted selects products independently. If you purchase something from our posts, we may earn a small commission.

One of Sean “Diddy” Combs’ accusers has been revealed to be Anna Kane, the ex-wife of an NHL player Evander Kane, according to a new report. Once listed as Jane Doe, Kane added her name to court documents in order to continue her lawsuit. “I had hoped to use a pseudonym in pursuing justice for what happened to me as a teenager,” Kane’s said in a statement to TMZ via her attorney. “Defendant’s demand that I use my name was an attempt to intimidate me, but I am not intimidated.” In the lawsuit, Kane alleged that she was only 17 years old and still in high school when she encountered Combs. The suit claims that she met Combs at a recording studio in New York City, and that he and others supplied her with drugs and sexually assaulted her, according to TMZ. “I am prepared to proceed and hold accountable those who have harmed me,” Kane told TMZ.

Ex-wife Moore answered questions on CNN about his ongoing health battle, saying that he “in a very stable place at the moment.” “I’ve shared this before, but I really mean this so sincerely,” Moore said. “It’s so important for anybody who’s dealing with this, to really meet them where they’re at, and from that place, there is such loving and joy.” In 2022, Willis’ family announced his aphasia diagnosis, a language disorder that makes it hard for those to communicate or understand others. In 2023, they learned the aphasia was a result of frontotemporal dementia. “I’ve known that something was wrong for a long time. It started out with a kind of vague unresponsiveness, which the family chalked up to Hollywood hearing loss,” his daughter Tallulah Willis wrote in Vogue in 2023. “I find that I’m trying to document, to build a record for the day when he isn’t there to remind me of him and of us.” His second wife, Emma Heming Willis, currently is the actor’s carer. Moore emphasized that Willis’ condition is “very difficult,” and said that she wouldn’t wish it on anyone. “There is great loss,” Moore said. “but there is also great beauty.”Philippine Vice President Openly Threatens to Assassinate President

Lisa Simpson once said during an episode of “The Simpsons:” What could be more exciting than the savage ballet that is pro football? On Monday night, the entire Simpsons universe gets to experience it in a way not many could have imagined. The prime-time matchup between the Cincinnati Bengals and Dallas Cowboys will also take place at Springfield’s Atoms Stadium as part of “The Simpsons Funday Football” alternate broadcast. The altcast will be streamed on ESPN+, Disney+, and NFL+ (on mobile devices). ESPN and ABC have the main broadcast, while ESPN2 will carry the final “ManningCast” of the regular season. The replay will be available on Disney+ for 30 days. Globally, more than 145 countries will have access to either live or on replay. “We’re such huge football fans, and the Simpsons audience and the football audience, I feel, are like the same audience of just American families and football. And the Simpsons are so much a part of the DNA of the American family and culture that for us to, like, mush them together in this crazy video game, it’s so fun,” said Matt Selman, executive producer of “The Simpsons.” While the game is the focal point, the alternate broadcast, in some ways, will resemble a three-hour episode of “The Simpsons.” It starts with Homer eating too many hot dogs and having a dream while watching football. Homer joins the Cowboys in the dream while Bart teams up with the Bengals. Lisa and Marge will be sideline reporters. “That’s the beginning of the story, and the story continues through the entire game until Homer wakes up from his dream at the end of the game. It is like a complete story, and the NFL game will happen in between. It’s just going to be an amazing presentation with tons of surprises,” said Michael “Spike” Szykowny, ESPN’s VP of edit and animation. This is the second year ESPN has done an alternate broadcast for an NFL game. It used the characters from “Toy Story” for last year’s Sunday morning game from London between the Atlanta Falcons and Jacksonville Jaguars. “The Simpsons” has featured many sports-themed episodes during its 35 seasons. Even though “Homer at the Bat” remains the consensus favorite sports episode for many Simpsons fans, there have been football ones such as “Bart Star” and “Lisa The Greek.” There also was a Super Bowl-themed one after Fox’s broadcast of Super Bowl 33 between Denver and Atlanta in 1999. Even though “The Simpsons” remains a staple on Fox’s prime-time schedule, it is part of the Disney family after their acquisition of 20th Century Fox in 2019. All 35 seasons are on Disney+. The show’s creators have worked with ESPN and the NFL to make sure the look and sound is definitely Simpsonsesque. The theme song is a mash-up of “The Simpsons” opening and “Monday Night Football’s” iconic “Heavy Action.” There have also been pre-recorded skits and bits to use during the broadcast featuring Simpson’s legendary voices Hank Azaria, Nancy Cartwright, Dan Castellaneta, Julie Kavner, and Yeardley Smith. The telecast will be entirely animated, with the players’ movements in sync with what is happening in real-time on the field. That is done through player-tracking data enabled by the NFL’s Next Gen Stats system and Sony’s Beyond Sports Technology. Story continues below video While Next Gen Stats tracks where players are on the field with a tracking chip in the shoulder pads, there is skeletal data tracking and limb tracking data — which uses 29 points per player — to get closer to the player’s movements. The other data tracking will allow Beyond Sports and Disney to add special characters to the game. For example, there might be a play where Lisa catches the ball and goes 30 yards instead of Cincinnati’s Tee Higgins. “Lisa is much smaller than the rest of the players. So, in real life, the ball would go over her head, but now, with data processing, we can take the ball and make it go exactly into her hands. So for the viewer, it still looks believable, and it all makes sense,” said Beyond Sports co-founder Nicolaas Westerhof. The other major challenge is making “The Simpsons” two-dimensional cartoon characters into 3-D simulations. Szykowny and his team worked to make that a reality over the past couple of months. “That’s a big leap of faith for them to say, hey, we trust you to make our characters 3-D and work with it. Our ESPN creative studio team has done a wonderful job,” Szykowny said. Lisa, Krusty, Nelson, Milhouse and Ralph will be with Bart and the Bengals; while Carl, Barney, Lenny and Moe join up with with Homer and the Cowboys. The broadcast will also feature ESPN personalities Stephen A. Smith, Peyton Manning and Eli Manning. ESPN’s Drew Carter, Mina Kimes and Dan Orlovsky will call the game from Bristol, Connecticut, and also be animated. They will wear Meta Quest Pro headsets to experience the game from Springfield using VR technology. For Kimes, being part of the broadcast and being an animated Simpsons character is a dream come true. She is a massive fan of the show and has a framed photo of Lisa Simpson — who she said is a personal hero and icon — as part of her backdrop when she makes appearances on ESPN NFL shows from her home in Los Angeles. “I didn’t have any input, and I didn’t see anything beforehand, so I wasn’t sure if it would look like me, but it kind of does, which is very funny,” said Kimes, who drew Simpsons characters when she was a kid. “To see the actual staff turn me into one was a dream.” Even though the Bengals (4-8) and Cowboys (5-7) have struggled this season, Selman thinks both teams have personalities that appeal to “The Simpsons” universe. “We were just so lucky also that the Cowboys are sort of like a Homer Simpson-type team, American team, and Mike McCarthy might be a Homer-type guy, one might imagine,” he said. ”And then you have Joe Burrow on the other side who is a cool young, spiky-haired, blonde bad boy -- he’s like Bart. And that fits our character archetypes so perfectly. “If Homer is mad at Bart and has a hot dog dream while watching ’Monday Night Football’, and then it’s basically McCarthy versus Burrow, Homer versus Bart, and that’s the simple father versus son strangling — Homer strangling Bart dynamic that has been part of the show for 35 years. I don’t know if that would have worked as well if it was like Titans versus Jacksonville. We would have found something. We would have made it work.” AP NFL: https://apnews.com/hub/nflOctopus Energy tells customers they can slash bills by £300

Police say searchers don’t expect to find woman in Pennsylvania sinkhole alive UNITY TOWNSHIP, Pa. (AP) — The search for a woman who is believed to have fallen into a sinkhole in western Pennsylvania has become a recovery effort after two treacherous days of digging through mud and rock produced no signs of life. Pennsylvania State Police spokesperson Trooper Steve Limani said during a news conference Wednesday that authorities no longer believe they will find 64-year-old Elizabeth Pollard alive, but that the search for her remains continues. Limani says crews have seen "no signs of any form of life or anything.” Pollard was last seen alive Monday evening when she went out looking for her cat in the village of Marguerite, about 40 miles east of Pittsburgh. WWE is seeking a bigger stage and Netflix, pushing for more live events, is providing it WWE will perform on a stage next month that could be vastly larger than its current home on cable television when it makes its “Raw” debut on Netflix. The sports entertainment company is moving to a platform with about 283 million subscribers worldwide as it departs its current home on the USA Network, which averaged 688,000 viewers in prime-time last year, according to the Nielsen company. For Netflix, onboarding the WWE is part of strategic move to air more live events on the heels of a hugely successful fight between Mike Tyson and Jake Paul that was viewed by more than 60 million people. Michigan court upholds light sentence for woman who killed dad in dispute over ride DETROIT (AP) — The Michigan Court of Appeals has declined to overturn a light jail sentence for a young woman who killed her father by burning him with a dangerous powder. Prosecutors said Megan Imirowicz was upset when her father couldn’t drive her to a hair appointment before her 18th birthday party. Imirowicz was sentenced to only a year in jail in 2023. She actually spent more than a year in custody because she was locked up before trial and while awaiting her punishment in suburban Detroit. Sumo wrestlers bring 1,500 years of tradition to London as the sport has an international moment LONDON (AP) — London’s Royal Albert Hall is preparing to host a different kind of spectacle: Sumo wrestling. Wrestlers put on an exhibition of heavyweight grappling to promote a tournament scheduled for next October. It marks only the second time an elite five-day tournament will be held outside Japan. The first was held in 1991 at the same venue. Organizers are hoping to whip up the kind of excitement that was generated three decades ago, when the deeply ritualistic sport attracted sell-out crowds and a national television audience. The end of an Eras tour approaches, marking a bittersweet moment for Taylor Swift fans NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — The global phenomenon that is Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour is coming to an end after the popstar performed more than 150 shows across five continents over nearly two years. Since launching the tour in 2023, Swift has shattered sales and attendance records. It's even created such an economic boom that the Federal Reserve took note. But for many who attended the concerts, and the millions more who eagerly watched on their screens, the tour also became a beacon of joy. It's become a chance not only to appreciate Swift’s expansive music career, but also celebrate the yearslong journey fans have taken with her. Jury revisits key videos in NYC subway chokehold death trial NEW YORK (AP) — Jurors have asked to review police and bystander video at the heart of the New York City chokehold manslaughter case against Daniel Penny. The request came during a second day of deliberations Wednesday. The anonymous jury also asked to rehear part of a city medical examiner’s testimony. The request included testimony about her decision to issue a death certificate without getting toxicology test results for Jordan Neely. He was the agitated subway rider whom Penny held him around the neck for roughly six minutes. Penny has pleaded not guilty to manslaughter and criminally negligent homicide. Prosecutors say he recklessly killed Neely. Penny's defense maintains he was justified in acting to protect fellow subway riders from Neely. Relatives hunt for the missing after Guinea stadium crush amid fears official death toll is too low CONAKRY, Guinea (AP) — Kambaly Kouroumah was searching a local morgue for his teenage brother, Adama, who died after chaos erupted at a soccer game in southern Guinea’s Nzerekore city. Adama, 15, was among 56 people that officials said were killed in Sunday's crush, although rights groups reported a death toll nearly three times higher. Local media, rights groups and witnesses say security forces used tear gas to respond after fans began to throw stones to protest a referee's decision during the soccer game that was organized in honor of Guinea's junta leader, Col. Mamadi Doumbouya. Many of the dead were crushed as they tried to escape through the stadium gates, videos showed. Power shortages in Ecuador are melting away the future of a small town’s ice-cream industry SALCEDO, Ecuador (AP) — Ice-cream production in this quiet Ecuadorian town began in the mid-20th century in a convent for Franciscan nuns. The nuns sold their creamy popsicles in town to gather funds for the poor. But the people of Salcedo saw a business opportunity and began experimenting with new flavors and techniques, establishing a thriving popsicle industry that has made their small town famous among ice-cream lovers. But now, the South American nation is struggling with a relentless wave of power cuts that threaten the future of Salcedo’s ice-cream industry, melting away its dreams of a more prosperous future. Senegalese artisans in the spotlight as they exhibit for the first time at a prestigious art event DAKAR, Senegal (AP) — For the artistic and cultural elites of the West African nation of Senegal, the monthlong Dakar Biennale of Contemporary African Arts is a celebratory moment. But it wasn’t until this year that the local artisans in the Soumbedioune crafts market, just off the Corniche and at the doorstep on the Medina working-class neighborhood, realized what the Biennale was. Craftsmanship is deeply rooted in the country’s culture, but its role has declined in recent years. As living costs rise, many Senegalese opt for cheaper, Chinese-imported products. And those that can afford it buy Western clothes and furniture to mark their social status. Eminem's mother Debbie Nelson, whose rocky relationship fueled the rapper's lyrics, dies at age 69 Debbie Nelson, the mother of rapper Eminem whose rocky relationship with her son was known widely through his song lyrics, has died. She was 69. Eminem’s longtime representative Dennis Dennehy confirmed Nelson’s death in an email on Tuesday. He did not provide a cause of death, although Nelson had battled lung cancer.

The ISPR said the trial of May 9 accused under military custody, had been concluded under the relevant laws, and all convicts had the right to appeal and avail other legal recourses, as guaranteed by the Constitution and law. It said the nation, government, and the armed forces remain steadfast in their commitment to upholding justice and ensuring that the inviolable writ of the state was maintained. Reacting over the development, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Barrister Gohar Ali Khan announced filing appeals against the military court’s verdict. He explained that appeals would be filed against the military court sentences individually also. He also called upon the Supreme Court to decide the case related to the military trial at the earliest, demanding that a judicial commission should be formed on the incidents of May 9 and November 26. Agencies add: Minister for Information and Broadcasting Attaullah Tarar, meanwhile, welcomed the punishments awarded in the May 9 incidents. In a video message issued on Thursday, he said justice had prevailed and that no one would dare attack the country’s defence installations again. He said these culprits were involved in vandalism and were punished after a fair trial. He said the culprits of the May-9 incident were given all fundamental rights during trial. He added that no hasty decisions were made in the trial court as the prosecution took ample time and proper evidence was presented. Attaullah Tarar said the right to a fair trial includes the right to legal representation, access to records and family. He said the culprits had two rights of appeal against their sentence. The minister said the May 9 incident was a conspiracy, hatched by the PTI founder chairman. He said the mastermind and other plotters of the conspiracy should also be taken to task. Separately, Adviser in the Ministry of Law and Justice Barrister Aqeel Malik hailed judgments of the military courts in May 9, 2023 incidents, and said it would help the state establish its writ and send a strong message to miscreants. In a short statement on social media platform X, he appreciated the sentences of imprisonment and rigorous imprisonment ranging from two to ten years, and said it was a decisive step towards upholding the rule of law and maintaining order. The adviser said accountability of culprits of the May 9 incidents was a clear message. “Rule of law and ensuring dispensation of justice is the top priority of the state. The verdicts of the military courts fully enjoy confidence of the nation. It shows that no hurdle is acceptable in provision of justice and national commitment in ensuring the rule of law is beyond any doubt,” the adviser said in his tweet. Later, five accused sentenced by military courts in the 9 May mayhem were transferred to the Adiala jail, according to jail sources. The convicts transferred to Adiala jail were Muhammad Abdullah, son of Kanwar Ashraf, Raja Danish Waheed, son of Raja Abdul Waheed, Hassan Shah, son of Sabir Hussain Shah, Ali Hasnain, son of Khalil-ur-Rehman, and Farhad Khan, son of Shahid Hussain.Harris scores 16 as South Carolina Upstate beats Western Carolina 74-68

Insurgents reach gates of Syria’s capital, threatening to upend decades of Assad ruleHPE's Cray EX4000 supports modular designs, scaling to 98,304 cores Slingshot 400 interconnect doubles throughput, vital for exascale systems AMD and Nvidia collaborations help compute density exceed 10 petaflops Future exascale supercomputers will adopt modular designs that allow enhanced scalability and efficiency, new reports have claimed. TheNextPlatform says Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) is leading this transformation, with its Cray EX4000 systems, which use HPE’s Slingshot interconnect and innovative chassis to support up to 98,304 AMD Epyc cores per rack. HPE’s interconnect technology is also advancing. The Slingshot 400, expected to be used in “Shasta” Cray EX systems in 2025, builds on the earlier Rosetta architecture and promises 400Gb/sec per port, doubling the throughput of its predecessor. Staying ahead This development is vital for managing the massive data loads produced by exascale systems, particularly for AI and scientific simulations. The Slingshot 400’s improvements to network interface cards and switches show HPE’s drive to stay competitive in a market that includes Nvidia and Broadcom, and TheNextPlatform predicts the company could achieve “800 Gb/sec speeds with a future Slingshot 800 (perhaps in the fall of 2027) and 1.6 Tb/sec speeds with an even further out Slingshot 1600 (perhaps in the fall of 2029).” On the compute side, HPE’s collaboration with AMD is reflected in its upcoming Cray EX4252 Gen 2 compute blades. These will feature AMD’s Zen 5c-based Epyc 9965 processors, offering 192 cores per CPU. According to TheNextPlatform , “With eight Epyc 9965s on each blade and 64 blades in one EX4000 chassis, that works out to a total of 98,304 cores in a single liquid-cooled rack.” This setup achieves up to 2 petaflops per rack and with 500 racks, “you could build an all-CPU exascale supercomputer."

Punjab Kings Squad for IPL 2025: Vijaykumar Vyshak Sold to PBKS for INR 1.8 Crore at Indian Premier League AuctionThe Seoul International Invention Fair (SIIF) 2024 in South Korea recognized the green innovations from the Department of Science and Technology’s Forest Products Research and Development Institute (DOST-FPRDI) in Seoul, South Korea. The Korea Invention Promotion Association recently conferred the Silver Award to DOST-FPRDI’s Multi-Functional School Furniture, also called “Silyang Pinoy,” because of its technical excellence, business potential, design, and explanation of the invention. Silyang Pinoy is a chair-table combination that can easily be transformed into a bed, which is especially useful during calamities when public schools are converted into evacuation centers. This sustainable furniture is mainly produced using engineered bamboo and other raw materials. Meanwhile, the Institute’s “Equipment System and Process for Treating Wastewater from Wet-Type Finishing Spray Booth” was recognized as the Best International Invention and Innovation by the National Research Council of Thailand. The equipment addresses the improper discharge of wastewater from furniture finishing that usually contains toxic chemicals, such as aromatics, benzene derivatives, alcohol, siloxanes, propanoic and pentanoic acid, which are harmful to aquatic plants and animals. “This international recognitions are significant achievements for DOST-FPRDI. They only prove the capability of our innovators and researchers to win in the world stage, boosting the Institute’s reputation in scientific and technological advancements,” said DOST-FPRDI Director Rico J. Cabangon. Both technologies were presented by Engr. Edward Paul S. Marasigan. DOST-FPRDI’s participation was made possible through the assistance of DOST-Technology Application and Promotion Institute. SIIF 2024 is an international event that offers a platform for networking and collaboration. Held from November 27 to 30, the event brought together inventors, researchers, manufacturers, investors, and distributors from over 30 countries.

‘Squid Game’ Season 2 Ending Explained: What Does the Post Credits Scene Mean?

Liberal MP accuses opposition MPs of wasting time on another Boissonnault probe

It took billions of dollars in losses, a company-wide overhaul, cost-cutting and price hikes to get there, but Bob Iger and Walt Disney Co. appear to have reached a long-awaited turning point in the streaming business. Disney direct-to-consumer operations — a combination of Disney+, Hulu and ESPN+ — have been profitable two straight quarters, helping to drive earnings that topped Wall Street expectations. The Burbank, Calif.-based entertainment giant last week said its streaming trifecta produced fiscal fourth quarter operating income of $321 million, swinging from a $387 million loss reported at the same time a year ago. Full-year operating profit for the direct-to-consumer group came in at $134 million, compared with fiscal 2023’s $2.6-billion loss. Disney+ added 4.4 million subscribers to reach 120 million accounts globally in the fourth quarter. It’s a far cry from just a few months ago, when Iger was the focus of a nasty proxy campaign from activist shareholder Nelson Peltz , the billionaire founder of the investment firm Trian Fund Management. One of Peltz’s demands was that Disney show a realistic plan to achieve Netflix-like profit margins from streaming. Now, Disney and Iger are showing signs of renewed swagger. The stock is up 25 percent so far this year, though it still isn’t as high as it was in April, when Iger defeated Peltz in the hedge fund agitator’s quest to win a board seat. Disney’s fourth quarter earnings were also buoyed by a strong showing from its resurgent film studios, which put out big hits with “Deadpool & Wolverine” and “Inside Out 2.” In an unusual flex for Disney, the company on Thursday surprised analysts by giving earnings guidance for the next three years. Not just 2025 and 2026, but the following fiscal year as well. The company is projecting a “double digit” increase in adjusted earnings per share in 2027, as Iger prepares to hand off the baton to a yet-to-be determined successor. Notably, 2027 is after Iger is expected to exit as chief executive, so the fact that the company is giving his replacement a financial target, however vague, caught several observers’ attention.”We’re not sure the incoming CEO will appreciate having their hands tied in that way,” TD Cowen analyst Doug Creutz wrote in a note to clients. Disney also must contend with issues that continue to weigh on all legacy media companies, including the volatility of the film business and especially the erosion of traditional TV networks. Fourth-quarter sales from Disney’s linear networks business fell 6 percent to $2.5 billion, while profits from the unit dropped 38 percent to $498 million. Revenue at ESPN, reporting under the separate “sports” segment, was up 1% with profit falling 6 percent. The company’s parks business, long a huge driver of results, faces an uncertain macroeconomic environment with a new incoming administration, as well as competition from the upcoming Epic Universe park in Florida (which Disney has downplayed). In sports, the company still has to successfully launch its flagship ESPN streaming service next year. So what’s giving Disney the self-assuredness to give out these targets? Disney executives, speaking on last week’s earnings call, cited several reasons to believe in the company’s forecasts, including steady improvement in the streaming business and considerable investment in experiences such as the parks and cruise lines . With streaming in particular, Disney was remarkably specific in its guidance for 2026. For example, executives said that Disney+ and Hulu would achieve 10 percent operating margins by then, excluding the Hulu Live TV streaming offering. Management highlighted changes and improvements the company is making to its services: anti-password sharing measures, better personalization and customization technology, adding an ESPN tile, etc. All this ought to allow Disney to improve engagement, increase subscriptions, reduce churn, please advertisers and raise prices. “We wouldn’t have given you the guidance we did if we didn’t have confidence in delivering,” Disney Chief Financial Officer Hugh Johnston said on the call. Disney’s results are just one sign of a broader rebound for streaming, at least among the top-tier companies. Netflix is making billions of dollars in profit, with a stock market valuation of $362 billion (significantly higher than Disney’s $206-billion market cap). Spotify, the Swedish music and podcast subscription service, recently projected it would reach full year profitability for the first time. With Disney, there are always risks to point to. The studio, which is having a strong year, has a number of high-stakes bets coming up next year, including multiple Marvel movies (“Captain America: Brave New World,” “Thunderbolts,” “The Fantastic Four: First Steps”) a live action “Snow White” and a nonsequel Pixar film, “Elio.” But none of that will take up as much investor attention as the ongoing succession process for Iger, which is being led by James P. Gorman, the outgoing executive chairman of Morgan Stanley, who will become chairman of Disney’s board of directors next year. Disney recently said it would choose a successor in early 2026 , which is later than many expected. The Wall Street Journal reported that the search for a replacement had widened beyond the oft-discussed quartet of internal candidates to include outsiders such as the chief executive of video game giant Electronic Arts, Andrew Wilson. Whoever gets the job, the pressure will be high, with or without the company’s earnings projections hanging over them.

LINCOLN — Young men, start your engines. Rev ‘em up, too. You’re the 2025 Nebraska football recruiting class — 20 strong — and probably should have been the story of NU’s Signing Day press conference. But you were at least the third story, and maybe fourth, behind the coaches who left, the ex-Huskers who hit the transfer portal and perhaps the players your school might take from the transfer portal. When you started high school, back in 2021, there was still some pageantry around this day, in late December though it may have been. Now, first week of December, you’re practically a doctor’s appointment squeezed into a Wednesday afternoon. You’re rookies in a sea of perpetual free agents. Most of you are enrolling early and that’s a good thing; the quicker you learn the playbook and hit the weight room, the better chance you’ll have to impress coaches. Coach Matt Rhule thinks you’ll succeed in that effort, as well. He likes you guys. For a couple of you, Dawson Merritt and Cortez Mills, he and his staff kept going back to the well again and again to flip you from Alabama and Oklahoma, respectively. How often does Nebraska beat those two schools for any recruit? This could be one of the strongest Husker recruiting classes in years. “We’ve got some guys who can come in and play early,” Rhule said, “because this class is going to have to come in and play early.” Hear that? He means it. Rhule has playing time to offer. For the 2025 team to win big, some of you have to step into major roles. On defense, so many seniors exhausted their eligibility, and so many other guys hit the transfer portal, that the coaches will be choosing between, say, sophomores, redshirt freshmen and, well, you. On offense, your coordinator is Dana Holgorsen, and he surely doesn’t care how old you are. At the skill spots, he’ll play whoever competes the best. Of course, he also said on NU’s in-house Signing Day special that he’s bringing “20 or 30” transfers in for visits and selecting the best from that pool. Maybe Holgo’s exaggerating. Do you want to test him? So you need to impress these guys. In an era of revenue sharing, NIL and unlimited transfers, you might get two spring camps to develop on a roster before you’re asked to be a key contributor. Three, maybe, if you’re a quarterback or a raw offensive tackle. After that, you’re a revenue-sharing dollar figure on a spreadsheet that might be replaced by another rookie — or transfer. Yeah, it is cutthroat. This isn’t 1986. Or even 2006, perhaps the golden age of the prep recruiting era, when the recruiting sites got big, the all-star games got max publicity, ESPN had a big blowout special in early February and drama practically dragged into the start of the next spring camp. It was hard to transfer back then even once, particularly if the coach wanted to block your release or you didn’t have a redshirt season to sit out one year of eligibility. In 2006, if seven guys left in December, before a bowl game, it was a mass exodus — cause for concern at the health of the program. In 2024, seven guys leaving is called “Monday and Tuesday.” And here you are in the midst of the chaos, not knowing for sure what the college football system will look like in 2025, much less 2027. You probably wouldn’t have teed it up this way. But here’s your swing. Over the next nine months, you’d be wise to make an impression. Good thing you can, Dawson Merritt. Nebraska needs a versatile edge rusher who can drop into coverage, and Princewill Umanmielen, athletic as he may be, did not quite develop into that guy before hitting the transfer portal. Ditto, Christian Jones. You looked the part at linebacker for years leading the state’s best defense, and Mikai Gbayor just hit the transfer portal. Can you step into a role quickly? Same for you, Jamarion Parker. At running back, you can turn an eight-yard run into an 80-yarder, and that’s a skill Nebraska sorely needs. Malcolm Simpson and Kade Pietrzak, you’ve seen this program is unafraid to plug a freshman defensive lineman into a game. Your frames seem sturdy enough to play. Cortez Mills and Isaiah Mozee, you’re four-star receivers who flashed electric run-after-the-catch skills in high school. Bring those to campus like Jacory Barney did, and you might play as much as Jacory Barney has. TJ Lateef, you’re a quarterback and may have to wait your turn behind Dylan Raiola, but you’ll likely be doing so as Raiola’s backup, given Rhule’s openness to moving Heinrich Haarberg to different spots. Some of you need time with the nutrition and weight staffs — 18-year-old tackles rarely walk into a program ready to block 23-year-olds — but those guys are the exception at every school. Most of you will play, or transfer, by this rule: When you’re getting compensated more than anyone 10 years ago could have imagined, the standards for keeping that salary rapidly change. You’re a recruiting class full of promise and opportunity. You’ll face a heap of the other thing, too, though. “There’s bunch of these guys we expect to play,” Rhule said. “You don’t want to put that on the guys until they get here, but I want them to have the expectation.” Even if you don’t, the coaches will.

Social media and certain pundits may have “retired” Constitution Hill twice this autumn but Nicky Henderson’s outstanding seven-year-old proved he is still the one to beat by winning – and led his jockey to call out some who had got it so wrong. The pundit in the spotlight was former Cheltenham Gold Cup-winning jockey Paddy Brennan, who declared on Sky Sports Racing that: “I can’t see him [Constitution Hill] coming back to a peak. No, just no. I think it’s impossible to beat something like Lossiemouth the way things stand today.” That prediction was made to look foolish as guided his charge to a comprehensive victory, before the jockey made his point in blunt fashion. “He felt fantastic,” he said. “He’s going to improve an awful lot. There is still a bit of ring rustiness after a year or so. I think all the credit has to go to the guv’nor because that is some training performance. It’s been a long time coming and definitely worth the wait.” He paused and then added: “And one more thing. Paddy Brennan, you can shove that where the sun don’t shine!” That just underlined what a win this was for a horse who had not raced for exactly a year after a series of unfortunate events including a cough, mild colic, and a poor racecourse gallop at Newbury in November. Now, though, make no mistake – Constitution Hill is back sprinkling star dust over the two-mile hurdle division. His big rival, the Irish mare Lossiemouth, was getting a 7lb mares’ weight advantage and had the benefit of a previous start this season but her three previous starts were all over two-and-a-half miles and she seemed to find the strong pace set by Burdett Road plenty quick enough over the first half mile. Though Paul Townend professed afterwards to having never having been happy with her she warmed into it but never got closer to the popular winner than two-and-a-half lengths at the finish. Constitution Hill, however, had a good blow going to the last in the race and a long one afterwards and it would be very surprising if he did not improve a lot for his first run for a year. “He is him,” said an emotional Henderson, winning the race for the 13th time. “The great thing is that he’s back and, I think, very nearly as good as he was. Nico said he had a good blow going to the last and he was entitled to – they went a Grade one gallop in that. There should be a lot of improvement to come from that. “Everyone at home has played their part in the jigsaw of getting him back; it’s been entertaining. We’ve done a lot of things differently and some of it’s been a bit of a struggle but the last three weeks it’s been very good. The Newbury gallop wasn’t what we were hoping for but, in a way it may have helped. It forced us to miss the Fighting Fifth and get him ready for this. “I was preparing for defeat and hoping with normal improvement we could turn it round at Cheltenham. I’d like to see how he has taken the race before deciding if we go again before the Champion. I’d like to but if he says ‘no’ we’ll go straight there. Horses like him don’t come around very often, he’s seriously talented.” It was a former human rather than equine pupil of Henderson’s, Ben Pauling, who took the Ladbrokes Kauto Star Novice Chase with The Jukebox Man, a first Grade One winner for jockey Bern Jones and owner Harry Redknapp. Greater character that he is, Redknapp really has a horse to go to war with now after The Jukebox Man beat Hyland a fairly untroubled two and a half lengths. Having had to deal with the six-year-old’s cracked heels, Pauling will now take The Jukebox Man straight to Cheltenham in March.

Jaylen Blakes, Maxime Raynaud and Oziyah Sellers combined for 35 points in a 47-point, first half explosion Saturday afternoon and Stanford ran away from California for an 89-81 Atlantic Coast Conference road win in Berkeley, Calif. Raynaud and Blakes finished with 20 points apiece for the Cardinal (8-2, 1-0 ACC), who won their first ever game in ACC competition. Andrej Stojakovic had a game-high 25 points and Jovan Blacksher Jr. added 14 for the Golden Bears (6-3, 0-1), who dropped their second in a row after a 6-1 start. Playing just its second true road game of the season, Stanford scored 14 of the game's first 18 points and never looked back. Raynaud and Ryan Agarwal hit 3-pointers in the run. Blakes had 14 points, Raynaud 11 and Sellers 10 in the first half, which ended with Stanford in front 47-31. Cal was still down 81-65, after two free throws by Stanford's Chisom Okpara with 3:58 remaining before making a little run. Mady Sissoko converted a three-point play and Rytis Petraitis and Joshua Ola-Joseph connected on consecutive 3-pointers in a 9-0 flurry that made it a seven-point game with still 2:13 to go. It got as close as six when Stojakovic drilled a 3-pointer with 1:21 left, but Okpara and Blakes dropped in late layups to keep the hosts at arm's length. Seven of the nine Cardinal who saw action hit at least half his field goal attempts, led by Raynaud's 8-for-15 and Blakes' 7-for-13. Stanford finished 52.6 percent as a team. Both were deadly from the 3-point line as well, with Raynaud going 4-for-6 and Blakes 2-for-4. With Sellers adding 3-for-6, the Cardinal made 11 of their 23 attempts (47.8 percent) from beyond the arc. Raynaud also found time for five blocks, while Agarwal and Aidan Cammann shared Stanford rebound honors with seven. Blakes complemented his 20 points with a team-high six assists and two blocks. The Cardinal registered 19 assists on 30 baskets, while Cal had just five on its 30 hoops. Agarwal and Okpara each also scored in double figures with 11 points. Facing his old team for the first time after transferring to Cal over the summer, Stojakovic shot 11-for-25. The Golden Bears finished at 42.3 percent overall and 38.1 percent (8 of 21) on 3-pointers. Ola-Joseph and Sissoko, who had 11 points, were the game's leading rebounders with eight apiece. -Field Level Media

LR Health & Beauty boekt sterke omzetgroei van 7,2%Lindsey Vonn finished 24th as the 40-year-old returned to competitive skiing after five years away in the second-tier FIS Fall Festival downhill race in Copper Mountain, Colorado, on Saturday. Vonn, who previously held the record for most World Cup wins by a woman (82) before being surpassed by Mikaela Shiffrin, is eyeing a possible Olympic berth in 2026 and is mulling returning to the World Cup circuit next weekend in Beaver Creek, Colorado. The race included other big names given there were no women's World Cup speed events this weekend and the giant slaloms in Tremblant, Canada, were called off. Mirjam Puchner of Austria topped the Copper Mountain event in 1 minute, 05.79 seconds. Vonn was 1.44 seconds behind the winner despite only returning to training in the past couple of months. She was 27th in a second race soon after, just 1.53 behind winner Cornelia Hütter of Austria. "Today was a solid start and I had a blast being in start with my teammates again! While I’m sure people will speculate and say I’m not in top form because of the results, I disagree. This was training for me. I’m still testing equipment and getting back in the groove," Vonn said on X. "This is only the beginning and the way I’m skiing is more important than the times at this point. Now I have the FIS points to race World Cup so that’s a successful day! Thanks to everyone who helped put on the races!" Vonn, who has returned after having knee replacement surgery, dominated the sport during her active career between 2000 and 2019. Her achievements include four overall World Cup titles, two world championships and one Olympic medal at the 2010 Vancouver Games.
