SMITHFIELD, R.I. (AP) — Malik Grant rushed for 204 yards and three touchdowns and Rhode Island beat Bryant 35-21 on Saturday to capture its first league title in 39 years. Rhode Island (10-2, 7-1 Coastal Athletic Association) secured the program's seventh title, with each of the previous six coming in the Yankee Conference. The Rams tied a program record for total wins in a season with 10, first set in 1984 and matched in 1985. Hunter Helms threw for 209 yards with one touchdown and one interception for Rhode Island. Grant also added his first touchdown reception of the season. Grant rushed for 47 yards on the first snap of the second half. He ran for 56 yards on the drive that ended with his 4-yard touchdown catch for a 20-14 lead. An interception by Braden Price on the ensuing Bryant possession set up another Grant rushing touchdown. Bryant scored in the fourth quarter to make it a one-score game, but a 15-play, 72-yard drive ended with a 3-yard touchdown run by Grant. Grant's 13 rushing touchdowns are tied for Rhode Island's single-season record set last season by Ja’Den McKenzie. Brennan Myer threw for 189 yards with two touchdowns and two interceptions for Bryant (2-10, 0-8).

( MENAFN - Live Mint) Top news today, December 1: A host of developments, updates, and events are expected in India and internationally on December 1 in the markets, political, financial, technology, and general spheres. We take a look. Today (December 1), the TRAI's traceability rules come into effect which will ensure that OTPs especially important banking messages are not delayed; further Air India which merged with Vistara last month is deploying the airline's narrow-body aircrafts on five domestic routes starting today; and SBI credit cards have new utility payment fees and reward policies from today; among other news. The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI ) has issued an update to reassure the public that there will be no delays in the delivery of essential Net Banking and Aadhaar OTP messages starting today (December 1). Responding to misinformation circulating on social media, TRAI said thatwith new regulations aimed at improving message traceability, the timely delivery of such messages will be ensured. New rules were introduced on October 1, requiring telecos to establish a system for tracking the origins of bulk messages. Message traceability refers to a mechanism enabling telecom companies to identify the source of bulk SMS traffic. This capability is crucial for curbing the spread of fraudulent messages, as it allows authorities to pinpoint and act against the originators of such schemes. Without traceability, detecting and prosecuting scammers becomes significantly more challenging. Air India last month announced it will deploy Vistara's best narrowbody aircraft on five key metro routes from December. Vistara's A320-series aircraft would be deployed for flights from Delhi to Mumbai, Bengaluru, and Hyderabad, and from Mumbai to Hyderabad and Bengaluru, as per a report by the Hindustan Times. These routes will have business, premium economy, and economy class seats. These flights will have the AI-prefixed four-digit flight numbers beginning with 2, such as AI2999 from Delhi to Mumbai, it added. SBI Card is updating its utility payment fees and rewards point policy for a host of credit cards from today, according to a CNBC-TV18 report. These credit cards include those under the Premium Cards, Lifestyle Cards, Shopping Cards, Savings Cards, Gold Cards, Partner Bank Cards, Employee & Merchant Cards, SBI Card categories, and more. As per the new rules, a 1 per cent fee will be charged on utility payments that exceed ₹50,000 in a billing cycle. Utilities include water, gas and electricity bills. For payments below the ₹50,000 threshold, no fees apply, it said. For rewards policy, the points for digital gaming platform is being discontinued. Cyclone Fengal crossed the North Tamil Nadu and Puducherry coasts early today and is likely to continue moving west-southwestward, weakening into a deep depression within the next few hours, according to the India Meteorological Department (IMD). As per the IMD, it crossed the Puducherry coasts with wind speeds of 70-80 kmph gusting up to 90 kmph. Residents in the affected areas have been advised to remain indoors and follow instructions from local authorities for safety; and people living in nearby areas have been shifted to relief camps near Kalpakkam in Chengalpattu district, as per an ANI report. Meanwhile, Puducherry and several parts of Tamil Nadu experienced heavy rain and gusty winds, disrupting road and air services and affecting normal life. Authorities told ANI they have reviewed the situation and implemented precautionary measures. The 10-day-long Hornbill Festival in Nagaland is set to begin today, as per a PTI report. This year, the 25th edition of the festival features four country partners - Japan, Peru, the US and Wales - and two state partners - Sikkim and Telangana, according to Tourism Minister Temjen Imna Along. The inaugural ceremony will take place at 4 pm on December 1, in the presence of the dignitaries of the partner countries as honoured guests, Governor La Ganesan as chief host and Chief Minister Neiphiu Rio as host. The minister said the Hornbill Festival, held at the picturesque Naga Heritage Village in Kisama, 12 km from the state capital on the Kohima-Imphal National Highway, attracts visitors from across the world to witness the state's vibrant traditions, food, and arts and crafts. He added that these partners will participate in various events, including business roundtables, cultural exhibitions, and tourism promotions. Tourists will be allowed in various Himalayan destinations of the Mangan district, including Yumthang, Dikchu, Lachung and the Guru Dongmar Lake, in a staggered manner from December 1, a senior official of the Sikkim government told PTI. Tourism activities were suspended in the district five months ago after heavy rainfall caused severe landslides, damaging various roads and bridges along the North Sikkim Highway, as per the report. The Border Roads Organization (BRO) has been restoring roads in the district on war footing, officials said. Streambox Media, a two-and-a-half-year-old startup, has today launched Dor, a subscription-based smart television service that combines premium hardware with content from multiple OTT platforms - all for a fixed monthly fee.

Liverpool suffered a setback on Friday (November 29, 2024) as central defender Ibrahima Konate confirmed he suffered an injury, days before the Merseyside club's Premier League home meeting with champions Manchester City. France international Konate, who has been superb at the heart of a Liverpool defence that has conceded only eight Premier League goals in 12 games, appeared to hurt his knee in a 2-0 victory over Real Madrid in the Champions League on Wednesday (November 27, 2024). According to reports in British media, the 25-year-old could be sidelined for five to six weeks due to the injury. "So frustrating to pick up this injury right at the end of a great game on Wednesday (November 27, 2024) night," Konate wrote in a post on Instagram. "Now we start the recovery process but one thing I promise is I will come back and be the best I can be once again. Thank you for the amazing support at Anfield." Liverpool are also without first-choice goalkeeper Alisson, attacker Diogo Jota and left-back Konstantinos Tsimikas. The Premier League leaders can go 11 points clear on Sunday (December 1, 2024)if they can beat City, who have been struggling in recent weeks and are winless in six matches across all competitions.

Octopus Energy customers could see a reduction of £300 annually on their bills, thanks to a £7,500 heating upgrade grant. This comes as energy bills are set to rise by another £21 or 1.2 percent. The government has extended the Warm Homes Plan, which it claims will save energy customers up to £300 a year. The Department for Energy Security and Net Zero has revealed that 300,000 homes across the UK will each receive £7,500 to replace their boiler with a heat pump in 2025. Planning regulations have been eased to expedite the installation of heat pumps , and more homes will be offered insulation as part of the scheme. The government asserts that a heat pump can reduce bills by as much as £100 a year, while insulation can cut another £200 off, costs covered by the scheme. Get the latest news straight to your phone by joining us on WhatsApp It believes these changes will encourage more households to install heat pumps. The statement read: "Households install an air source heat pump without needing to submit a planning application in England – removing the 1m rule, with figures from Octopus showing 34% of those who order a heat pump are discouraged or drop out for reasons attributed to planning permission. "Working alongside the government's mission to make Britain a clean energy superpower, the Warm Homes Plan will ensure millions more households benefit from homegrown energy delivered by every new turbine, solar panel or pylon built on the path to energy independence," reports the Express . "This includes boosting the budget for the Boiler Upgrade Scheme to support more households switch to a heat pump – which can save families around £100 a year compared to a gas boiler by using a smart tariff effectively, and insulating more homes across the country – potentially saving homeowners around £200 per year." On its website, Octopus' price comparison reveals that households will save on average £300 a year with its Octopus Cosy heat pump tariff against using a traditional boiler on Flexible Octopus, coming in at £1,391 annually instead of £1,691. Octopus Energy's chief executive Greg Jackson, said: "More than a third of customers who order a heat pump drop out because of planning issues, leaving them stuck with dirty, inefficient gas boilers. Removing outdated and unnecessary red tape is an urgent priority to grow this sector and get low cost, safe, clean heating technology into British homes."America's Eyes In The Sky: A Deeper Look At The Boeing E-3 Sentry

Indian billionaire Gautam Adani on Saturday said "attacks" on his company made it "stronger", days after US prosecutors accused him and other officials of fraud. The November 20 bombshell indictment in New York accused the industrialist and multiple subordinates of deliberately misleading international investors as part of a multi-million-dollar bribery scheme. Addressing the allegations for the first time, the 62-year-old tycoon said his conglomerate was committed to "world-class regulatory compliance". "What I can tell you is that every attack makes us stronger and every obstacle becomes a stepping stone for a more resilient Adani Group," he said at an awards ceremony in the northern Indian city of Jaipur. Adani is suspected of having participated in a $250 million scheme to bribe Indian officials for lucrative solar energy supply contracts. The billionaire, however, said nobody from his company had been charged with any violation of corruption laws or "any conspiracy to obstruct justice". The US Justice Department said Adani, his nephew Sagar Adani, and one other official were charged "with conspiracies to commit securities and wire fraud and substantive securities fraud". Five others were charged "with conspiracy to violate the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act," the department said. On Thursday, Adani's company said it had suffered a loss of nearly $55 billion in market capitalisation across its 11 listed companies since the US indictment was filed. With a business empire spanning coal, airports, cement and media, Adani Group has weathered previous corporate fraud allegations, suffering a similar stock rout last year. The conglomerate saw $150 billion wiped from its market value in 2023 after a report by short-seller Hindenburg Research accused it of "brazen" corporate fraud. Adani is a close ally of Hindu nationalist Prime Minister Narendra Modi and was at one point the world's second-richest man, and critics have long accused him of improperly benefitting from their relationship. ash/aha Get any of our free email newsletters — news headlines, sports, arts & entertainment, state legislature, CFD news, and more.

NoneLetter to the Editor: The benefits of wind powerThe deal, announced on Tuesday night, will see hostilities between Israel and Iran-backed militants Hezbollah suspended for 60 days, with both sides withdrawing from southern Lebanon. Brokered by the US and France, the agreement is designed to provide a permanent end to the conflict, US President Joe Biden said following the announcement. But Israeli ministers insisted it would resume strikes on Lebanon if Hezbollah breached the terms of the ceasefire, while the deal does not affect Israel’s continuing war with Hamas in Gaza. In a statement, Sir Keir Starmer described the deal as “long overdue”, saying it would “provide some measure of relief to the civilian populations of Lebanon and northern Israel, who have suffered unimaginable consequences during the last few months of devastating conflict and bloodshed”. He said: “Now, this deal must be turned into a lasting political solution in Lebanon, based on Security Council Resolution 1701, that will allow civilians to return permanently to their homes and for communities on both sides of the border to rebuild. “The UK and its allies will continue to be at the forefront of efforts to break the ongoing cycle of violence in pursuit of a long-term, sustainable peace in the Middle East. My statement on the ceasefire between Israel and Lebanese Hizbollah. pic.twitter.com/ZAxApKpJIT — Keir Starmer (@Keir_Starmer) November 26, 2024 “We must see immediate progress towards a ceasefire deal in Gaza, the release of all hostages and the removal of restrictions on desperately needed humanitarian aid.” The announcement of the deal follows a day of intense Israeli air strikes in Beirut, with local authorities saying at least 24 people were killed in the bombardment while Hezbollah continued to fire rockets into northern Israel. Recommending the ceasefire to his cabinet, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said the deal would isolate Hamas in Gaza and allow Israel to focus more on Iran, which supports both Hamas and Hezbollah and has staged attacks on Israel in recent months. Foreign Secretary David Lammy said the announcement offered “hope” and must become “a turning point that builds momentum towards a lasting peace across the Middle East”. He said: “The UK was the first G7 country to call for an immediate ceasefire between Israel and Lebanese Hezbollah in September and we have worked relentlessly since with our allies and partners to apply pressure to end this conflict since. “We strongly urge all parties to use this agreement to open a pathway to a lasting peace.” While aid organisations have welcomed the ceasefire, they have also called for it to be made permanent and extended to the conflict in Gaza. Amelia Whitworth, head of policy, campaigns and youth at the children’s charity Plan International UK, welcomed news of the deal. She said: “It is essential that all parties respect this ceasefire so that vital humanitarian aid can be delivered to the children and families that desperately need it.” Ms Whitworth added: “Today’s agreement must act as a vital step towards a sustained, permanent ceasefire – both in Lebanon and across Gaza and the wider Middle East region. “The horror must stop immediately, all children deserve to enjoy their childhood free from the threat of violence.” Paras Tamang, global humanitarian director at ActionAid, echoed her comments, saying the ceasefire would provide “temporary relief” for civilians but was “not an acceptable long-term solution to the crisis”. Mr Tamang said: “Whilst air strikes may stop for a while, the fallout from these attacks will continue to be felt for years to come. “More humanitarian aid is needed to help the hundreds of thousands of people who have lost everything.” According to the UN, more than 3,700 people, including 240 children, have been killed in Lebanon since the latest round of fighting began in October 2023, while around 900,000 have been displaced.
