Stock indexes closed mixed on Wall Street at the end of a rare bumpy week. The S&P 500 ended little changed Friday. The benchmark index reached its latest in a string of records a week ago. It lost ground for the week following three weeks of gains. The Dow Jones Industrial Average slipped 0.2%. The Nasdaq composite edged up 0.1%. Broadcom surged after the semiconductor company beat Wall Street’s profit targets and gave a glowing forecast, highlighting its artificial intelligence products. RH, formerly known as Restoration Hardware, surged after raising its revenue forecast. Treasury yields rose in the bond market. THIS IS A BREAKING NEWS UPDATE. AP’s earlier story follows below. Stocks slipped in afternoon trading Friday as Wall Street closes out a rare bumpy week. The S&P 500 was up by less than 0.1% and is on track for a loss for the week after three straight weekly gains. The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 58 points, or 0.1% to 43,856 as of 3 p.m. Eastern time. The Nasdaq rose 0.1% and is hovering around its record. Broadcom surged 24.9% for the biggest gain in the S&P 500 after the semiconductor company beat Wall Street’s profit targets and gave a glowing forecast, highlighting its artificial intelligence products. The company also raised its dividend. The company's big gain helped cushion the market's broader fall. Pricey stock values for technology companies like Broadcom give the sector more weight in pushing the market higher or lower. Artificial intelligence technology has been a focal point for the technology sector and the overall stock market over the last year. Tech companies, and Wall Street, expect demand for AI to continue driving growth for semiconductor and other technology companies. Even so, some big tech stocks were in the red Friday. Nvidia slid 2.6%, Meta Platforms dropped 1.7% and Netflix was down 0.7%. Furniture and housewares company RH, formerly known as Restoration Hardware, surged 14.2% after raising its forecast for revenue growth for the year. Wall Street's rally stalled this week amid mixed economic reports and ahead of the Federal Reserve's last meeting of the year. The central bank will meet next week and is widely expected to cut interest rates for a third time since September. Expectations of a series of rate cuts has driven the S&P 500 to . The Fed has been lowering its benchmark interest rate following an aggressive rate hiking policy that was meant to tame inflation. It raised rates from near-zero in early 2022 to a two-decade high by the middle of 2023. Inflation eased under pressure from higher interest rates, nearly to the central bank's 2% target. The economy, including consumer spending and employment, held strong despite the squeeze from inflation and high borrowing costs. A slowing job market, though, has helped push a long-awaited reversal of the Fed's policy. Inflation rates have been warming up slightly over the last few months. A report on consumer prices this week showed an increase to 2.7% in November from 2.6% in October. The Fed's preferred measure of inflation, the personal consumption expenditures index, will be released next week. Wall Street expects it to show a 2.5% rise in November, up from 2.3% in October. The economy, though, remains solid heading into 2025 as consumers continue spending and employment remains healthy, said Gregory Daco, chief economist at EY. “Still, the outlook is clouded by unusually high uncertainty surrounding regulatory, immigration, trade and tax policy,” he said. Treasury yields edged higher. The yield on the 10-year Treasury rose to 4.40% from 4.34% late Thursday. European markets slipped. Britain's FTSE 100 fell 0.1%. Britain’s economy unexpectedly shrank by 0.1% month-on-month in October, following a 0.1% decline in September, according to data from the Office for National Statistics. Asian markets closed mostly lower. Damian J.

Moreover, the absence of a centralized leadership structure and the lack of effective communication channels within anti-government armed groups can also contribute to the potential for internal conflict. Without a clear chain of command and mechanisms for conflict resolution, disputes and disagreements among group members are more likely to escalate into open hostilities, further destabilizing the battlefield situation.By JILL COLVIN and STEPHEN GROVES WASHINGTON (AP) — After several weeks working mostly behind closed doors, Vice President-elect JD Vance returned to Capitol Hill this week in a new, more visible role: Helping Donald Trump try to get his most contentious Cabinet picks to confirmation in the Senate, where Vance has served for the last two years. Vance arrived at the Capitol on Wednesday with former Rep. Matt Gaetz and spent the morning sitting in on meetings between Trump’s choice for attorney general and key Republicans, including members of the Senate Judiciary Committee. The effort was for naught: Gaetz announced a day later that he was withdrawing his name amid scrutiny over sex trafficking allegations and the reality that he was unlikely to be confirmed. Thursday morning Vance was back, this time accompanying Pete Hegseth, the “Fox & Friends Weekend” host whom Trump has tapped to be the next secretary of defense. Hegseth also has faced allegations of sexual assault that he denies. Vance is expected to accompany other nominees for meetings in coming weeks as he tries to leverage the two years he has spent in the Senate to help push through Trump’s picks.

Scott Applewhite) The role of introducing nominees around Capitol Hill is an unusual one for a vice president-elect. Usually the job goes to a former senator who has close relationships on the Hill, or a more junior aide. But this time the role fits Vance, said Marc Short, who served as Trump’s first director of legislative affairs as well as chief of staff to Trump’s first vice president, Mike Pence, who spent more than a decade in Congress and led the former president’s transition ahead of his first term. ”JD probably has a lot of current allies in the Senate and so it makes sense to have him utilized in that capacity,” Short said. Unlike the first Trump transition, which played out before cameras at Trump Tower in New York and at the president-elect’s golf club in Bedminster, New Jersey, this one has largely happened behind closed doors in Palm Beach, Florida. There, a small group of officials and aides meet daily at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort to run through possible contenders and interview job candidates. The group includes Elon Musk, the billionaire who has spent so much time at the club that Trump has joked he can’t get rid of him. Vance has been a constant presence, even as he’s kept a lower profile. The Ohio senator has spent much of the last two weeks in Palm Beach, according to people familiar with his plans, playing an active role in the transition, on which he serves as honorary chair. Vance has been staying at a cottage on the property of the gilded club, where rooms are adorned with cherubs, oriental rugs and intricate golden inlays. It’s a world away from the famously hardscrabble upbringing that Vance documented in the memoir that made him famous, “Hillbilly Elegy.” His young children have also joined him at Mar-a-Lago, at times. Vance was photographed in shorts and a polo shirt playing with his kids on the seawall of the property with a large palm frond, a U.S. Secret Service robotic security dog in the distance. On the rare days when he is not in Palm Beach, Vance has been joining the sessions remotely via Zoom. Though he has taken a break from TV interviews after months of constant appearances, Vance has been active in the meetings, which began immediately after the election and include interviews and as well as presentations on candidates’ pluses and minuses. Among those interviewed: Contenders to replace FBI Director Christopher Wray , as Vance wrote in a since-deleted social media post. Defending himself from criticism that he’d missed a Senate vote in which one of President Joe Biden’s judicial nominees was confirmed, Vance wrote that he was meeting at the time “with President Trump to interview multiple positions for our government, including for FBI Director.” “I tend to think it’s more important to get an FBI director who will dismantle the deep state than it is for Republicans to lose a vote 49-46 rather than 49-45,” Vance added on X. “But that’s just me.” While Vance did not come in to the transition with a list of people he wanted to see in specific roles, he and his friend, Trump’s eldest son, Donald Trump Jr., who is also a member of the transition team, were eager to see former Democratic Rep. Tulsi Gabbard and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. find roles in the administration. Trump ended up selecting Gabbard as the next director of national intelligence , a powerful position that sits atop the nation’s spy agencies and acts as the president’s top intelligence adviser. And he chose Kennedy to lead the Department of Health and Human Services , a massive agency that oversees everything from drug and food safety to Medicare and Medicaid. Vance was also a big booster of Tom Homan, the former acting director of Immigration and Customs Enforcement, who will serve as Trump’s “border czar.” In another sign of Vance’s influence, James Braid, a top aide to the senator, is expected to serve as Trump’s legislative affairs director. Allies say it’s too early to discuss what portfolio Vance might take on in the White House. While he gravitates to issues like trade, immigration and tech policy, Vance sees his role as doing whatever Trump needs. Vance was spotted days after the election giving his son’s Boy Scout troop a tour of the Capitol and was there the day of leadership elections. He returned in earnest this week, first with Gaetz — arguably Trump’s most divisive pick — and then Hegseth, who has was been accused of sexually assaulting a woman in 2017, according to an investigative report made public this week. Hegseth told police at the time that the encounter had been consensual and denied any wrongdoing. Vance hosted Hegseth in his Senate office as GOP senators, including those who sit on the Senate Armed Services Committee, filtered in to meet with the nominee for defense secretary. While a president’s nominees usually visit individual senators’ offices, meeting them on their own turf, the freshman senator — who is accompanied everywhere by a large Secret Service detail that makes moving around more unwieldy — instead brought Gaetz to a room in the Capitol on Wednesday and Hegseth to his office on Thursday. Senators came to them. Vance made it to votes Wednesday and Thursday, but missed others on Thursday afternoon. Vance is expected to continue to leverage his relationships in the Senate after Trump takes office. But many Republicans there have longer relationships with Trump himself. Sen. Kevin Cramer, a North Dakota Republican, said that Trump was often the first person to call him back when he was trying to reach high-level White House officials during Trump’s first term. “He has the most active Rolodex of just about anybody I’ve ever known,” Cramer said, adding that Vance would make a good addition. “They’ll divide names up by who has the most persuasion here,” Cramer said, but added, “Whoever his liaison is will not work as hard at it as he will.” Cramer was complimentary of the Ohio senator, saying he was “pleasant” and ” interesting” to be around. ′′He doesn’t have the long relationships,” he said. “But we all like people that have done what we’ve done. I mean, that’s sort of a natural kinship, just probably not as personally tied.” Under the Constitution, Vance will also have a role presiding over the Senate and breaking tie votes. But he’s not likely to be needed for that as often as was Kamala Harris, who broke a record number of ties for Democrats as vice president, since Republicans will have a bigger cushion in the chamber next year.

Jeremy Clarkson has backpedalled on his previous comments about why he bought his farm, saying he thought it would be a “better PR story if I said I bought it to avoid paying tax”. The TV presenter and journalist defied doctors’ orders by joining thousands of farmers in London on Tuesday to protest against agricultural inheritance tax changes. The 64-year-old, who fronts Prime Video’s Clarkson’s Farm, which documents the trials of farming on his land in Oxfordshire, wrote in a post on the Top Gear website in 2010: “I have bought a farm. There are many sensible reasons for this: Land is a better investment than any bank can offer. The government doesn’t get any of my money when I die. And the price of the food that I grow can only go up.” Clarkson also told the Times in 2021 that avoiding inheritance tax was “the critical thing” in his decision to buy land. Addressing the claim in a new interview with The Times, the former Top Gear presenter said: “I never did admit why I really bought it.” The fan of game bird shooting added: “I wanted to have a shoot – I was very naive. I just thought it would be a better PR story if I said I bought it to avoid paying tax.” Clarkson was among the thousands who took to the streets this week to protest over the changes in the recent Budget to impose inheritance tax on farms worth more than £1 million and he addressed the crowds at the march in central London. He told the newspaper he is not happy to be the public face of the movement, saying: “It should be led by farmers.” The presenter said he does not consider himself a farmer because there are “so many basic jobs” which he cannot do, but he feels his role is to “report on farming”. Earlier this month, it was confirmed Clarkson’s Farm, which has attracted huge attention to his Diddly Squat farm shop, had been renewed for a fifth series. Asked whether the issue behind the tax protest is that rural poverty is hidden, Clarkson agreed and said his programme was not helping to address the situation. “One of the problems we have on the show is we’re not showing the poverty either, because obviously on Diddly Squat there isn’t any poverty”, he said. “But trust me, there is absolute poverty. I’m surrounded by farmers. I’m not going out for dinner with James Dyson. “It’s people with 200 acres, 400 acres. Way past Rachel Reeves’s threshold. They are f*****.” The newspaper columnist also presents Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? on ITV. The Grand Tour, his motoring show with former Top Gear colleagues Richard Hammond and James May, ended in September. Discussing whether he might move into politics, Clarkson said: “I’d be a terrible political leader, hopeless. “I’m a journalist at heart, I prefer throwing rocks at people than having them thrown at me.” However, he said he would be “100% behind any escalation” after the farmers’ march. Clarkson revealed last month he had undergone a heart procedure to have stents fitted after experiencing a “sudden deterioration” in his health which brought on symptoms of being “clammy”, a “tightness” in his chest and “pins and needles” in his left arm. He said in a Sunday Times column that one of his arteries was “completely blocked and the second of three was heading that way” and doctors said he was perhaps “days away” from becoming very ill. Asked if he is thinking about retiring, the Doncaster-born celebrity said: “Probably not. It depends when you die, I always think. “You’d be surprised, us Northerners are made of strong stuff.”
The incident in question took place on [date], when the female master's student, [name], was reported missing by her family and friends. Subsequent investigations revealed that she had been taken in and allegedly "sheltered" by a group of individuals claiming to offer help and protection. However, upon further scrutiny, it became evident that this act of "sheltering" was in fact a violation of the student's rights and a clear case of coercion and manipulation.OF all the games that Scotland will play in their World Cup qualifying campaign next year, those against Belarus are likely to be by far the most straightforward on a sporting front. The eastern European state has never reached the finals of a major tournament since gaining independence 33 years ago and its national team currently languishes in 98th place in the FIFA World Rankings. Yet, the Group C double header against opponents who denied this country a place at Germany 2006 when they recorded a shock 1-0 win at Hampden in 2005 may well prove to be the most problematical off the park for political reasons. Belarusian national and club teams were banned from hosting international matches and competitions by both FIFA and UEFA back in 2022 due to their government’s complicity in the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

However, the sanctions which were imposed on them did not go nearly far enough for many people who were horrified by their support of the Vladimir Putin regime. German interior minister Nancy Faeser wrote to UEFA demanding they be prohibited from attempting to qualify for the Euro 2024 finals in her country this summer, as Russia had been, before they made their decision. Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya, the leader of the opposition in Belarus, was in complete agreement. “I am for excluding pro-regime teams until dictator Alexander Lukashenko is deposed in Minsk,” she said. (Image: ATTILA KISBENEDEK) “When you are visiting countries and playing for a terrorist team, it’s awful. I understand sport has to be beyond politics But now, when members of your team are being detained or tortured, it’s all politics.” Aleksander Ceferin, the UEFA president, and his associates were not swayed by the political pressure which was being put on their organisation. “It’s a bit populist to say you have to exclude them,” he said. “At the moment, we see no reason to do so. If things change, we will obviously react. Politicians should respect our right to make decisions. We don’t tell politicians and governments what to do.” Still, the penalties they introduced were viewed by many as a tacit endorsement of a country which has helped to facilitate a bloody and illegal war and which has a horrendous human rights record - including against footballers who have shown the slightest opposition to the authoritarian Lukashenko. As many as 48 professional players are rumoured to have been blacklisted for expressing anti-government views or for taking part in demonstrations.

They used Budapest and Novi Sad in Serbia as their base during Euro 2024 qualifying. The SFA were unsure following the draw in Zurich, Switzerland, today where they will face Belarus away in their second game on Monday, September 9. But the likelihood is it will be in the Szusza Ferenc Stadium, the home of Ujpest, in Budapest. (Image: ATTILA KISBENEDEK) The meeting with Belarus at Hampden might not be entirely routine either. Northern Ireland certainly encountered difficulties when they hosted them at Windsor Park in Belfast last month. Their entry to other countries is left entirely at the discretion of the hosts and the United Kingdom government, which had imposed sanctions in the wake of the Ukraine invasion, took some time to grant the necessary visas. They were only given the green light to play a fortnight before the Group C3 match after the Irish FA protested that they would suffer if the fixture had to be moved abroad. European games involving Belarusian clubs have also seen protests staged in the stands. When Legia Warsaw played Dinamo Minsk in the Conference League in Poland this season their fans unfurled a giant banner which read: “Voices silenced but must not be forgotten – free all the political prisoners.” Picking up enough points against the loser of the Nations League quarter-final between Denmark and Portugal as well as Greece and booking a place in the World Cup in Canada, Mexico and the United States in 2026 will be tough for Scotland. But their meetings with Belarus will present their own unique challenges.
World Trade Organization: Mild Growth in Global Goods Trade in the Fourth QuarterA local Black business owner is getting a place on the national stage. Nisha Blackwell, CEO, designer and founder of Knotzland , was nominated by a long-time customer to be part of Recast City’s inaugural Spark 10, which focuses on women in manufacturing — specifically, small business owners with brick-and-mortar retail spaces, making it a perfect fit for the Wilkinsburg bespoke bowtie studio and its mission to amplify innovation in different cities. “The process to pick the Spark 10 was multifaceted. I am passionate about small-scale manufacturing businesses,” said Ilana Preuss, the founder and CEO of Recast City and the creator of Spark 10. There was an open call for nominations, and 10 women across the country were selected for their outstanding contributions as individuals creating innovative models for small-scale manufacturing — models that benefit their communities and serve as examples of excellence and blueprints for others to follow. “Businesses that create products, from artisans in our holiday pop-ups to food product businesses, are growing as a sector but still aren’t receiving the investment they deserve,” Preuss said. Being part of Spark 10 connects Blackwell with leaders from across the country. Blackwell said that this opportunity has been a blessing, allowing her to network with different organizations and learn about diverse business models. “Nisha is really a community hero,” Preuss said. “She also teaches others how to run successful storefronts, sharing her experiences to help others succeed.” Knotzland works with what Blackwell calls a “social network” of 29 community members, including moms, students and others, who are paid fair wages to create products from materials shipped to them. Each item undergoes a quality check before being sold. “We call on them to help us with production when creating collections that require additional hands. On the other side, we work with partners to repurpose their fabrics,” Blackwell said. The model stood out to Preuss. “Her personal story of teaching herself to sew and her business model is truly innovative. It’s a distributed production model, where everyone works from home within their own space, forming a core part of her business approach. It’s a phenomenal model for other entrepreneurs to learn from,” Preuss said. As a former city planner who worked on downtown redevelopment, Preuss emphasizes that small businesses and small-scale manufacturing are critical to local economic development. “This approach looks at how to bring wealth-building opportunities to people, no matter where they are in the country,” she said. For example, the Minnesota Opera sends Knotzland remnants from their productions. “The fabrics are gorgeous, and we reshape and rework them,” Blackwell said, emphasizing her commitment to sustainability and community service. Knotzland also collaborates with designers, interior design companies, nonprofits and suppliers like Humanscale Warehouse in New Jersey, which provides upholstery materials. They even work with men’s suiting companies, transforming suit swatches into bow ties. “This is really popular because it reimagines traditional men’s wear into something new, Blackwell said. The Spark 10 had its first online meeting in November. “Being able to share ideas and build together in that way was inspiring. Listening to the stories of these diverse women and hearing about their challenges made me realize that my own challenges aren’t isolated to my industry,” Blackwell said. Through 2025, Spark 10 will offer more promotions and opportunities for the entrepreneurs in the program. Recast City plans to produce short videos and publish profiles on each business owner nationally. “We want to promote, highlight and shine a light on these individuals and the models they’ve created,” Preuss said. “The stories told nationally are the ones people replicate and are inspired by. Often, women who are catalysts in their communities creating these amazing models aren’t having their stories told. I wanted to ensure we shared those stories.” “I’m excited to see what’s to come. Pittsburgh has been really supportive, it’s often hard to gain visibility outside of the city,” Blackwell said. To support small-scale manufacturers, Preuss recommends shopping locally, especially during the holiday season, by attending pop-up shops and purchasing household items and goods as much as possible from small businesses. Blackwell, who taught herself to sew, reflected on the business’s 10-year journey. “Founding Knotzland combines my passions: community, sustainability, supporting other small businesses and using bow ties as a portal to serve and advocate within the community,” she said. “In 2014, I made a hair bow for my friend’s daughter. I had no idea that one hair bow would lead to this 10 years later, a bowtie company that encapsulates everything I’m passionate about,” she said. Raised in Homewood, Blackwell appreciates her journey. “I’ve experienced the ups and downs, but I’m grateful to be an example of someone who used creativity to build a life and a small yet powerful business,” she said.The culling of 240,000 chickens is a devastating blow to the affected farmers, who now face significant financial losses and uncertainty about the future of their livelihoods.

November 23 - Teams eager to move past late losses take the field Saturday when the Louisville Cardinals host the Pittsburgh Panthers. Louisville (6-4, 4-3 Atlantic Coast Conference) returns after allowing Stanford to score 10 points in the final 45 seconds to upset the then-No. 19 Cardinals 38-35. The Cardinals fell out of this week's College Football Playoff rankings when the selection committee released them on Tuesday night. The Panthers (7-3, 3-3) lost their third straight when then-No. 20 Clemson scored a touchdown with 1:16 remaining to win 24-20. Pitt outgained the visitors 438-346 yards but committed two turnovers and allowed eight sacks. In addition, coach Pat Narduzzi's team committed a season-high 13 penalties for 100 yards. Three came in succession when the Panthers had a third-and-goal from the Clemson 1. Instead of possibly scoring a touchdown, Pitt settled for a field goal. Like Pitt, Louisville committed a season-high 13 penalties for 102 yards. Flags negated two interceptions and a sack. Another gave Stanford a second chance for a two-point conversion. Others were even costlier. Stanford got the ball at its 45 with five seconds remaining after Louisville turned it over on downs. In that time, the Cardinals committed two penalties, allowing Stanford to win on a 52-yard field goal as time expired. Speaking to reporters Monday, Louisville coach Jeff Brohm said he's fine if the players are still stung from the loss. "We feel the pain, and you got to let it motivate you to want to not let it happen again," Brohm said. Pitt will get quarterback Eli Holstein back. He suffered two head injuries in the past month but was medically cleared to play earlier this week. Nate Yarnell started against Clemson and threw for 350 yards and a touchdown. The Panthers have dealt with a rash of injuries, but the offensive line has especially taken a beating. With three regulars out, there's been a rotation on the line, which is a reason for some of the penalties. The injuries come at a point in the season when Narduzzi tries to limit practicing to save players. "We've not cut the practice back yet because we needed to work the last two weeks," he explained. Louisville may play Saturday without Isaac Brown, who left the Stanford game with a shoulder contusion. Brohm hopes the freshman, whose 7.4 yards per carry ranks second in FBS, can play but was uncertain on Monday. --Field Level Media Our Standards: The Thomson Reuters Trust Principles. , opens new tabAnil Ambani scores major victory as SECI withdraws debarment notice to..
