Spurs boss Postecoglou was booed and heckled by a frustrated away end at the Vitality Stadium. Ange Postecoglou vowed to keep fighting to revive Tottenham’s fortunes after receiving “some direct feedback” from disgruntled fans following a limp 1-0 Premier League loss to Bournemouth. Spurs boss Postecoglou was booed and heckled by a frustrated away end at the Vitality Stadium, having seen his toothless side condemned to defeat by Dean Huijsen’s 17th-minute header. The Australian refused to go into detail about the heated exchange but said he understood the supporters’ emotional reaction. “I didn’t like what was being said because I’m a human being but you’ve got to cop it,” said Postecoglou, whose team have won only one of their last six games in all competitions. “I’ve been around long enough to know that when things don’t go well you’ve got to understand the frustration and the disappointment. “They’re rightly disappointed tonight because we’ve let a game of football get away from us. I’m OK with all that. “They’re disappointed and rightly so. They gave me some direct feedback, which I guess is taken onboard. “All I can say is, I’m really disappointed with tonight and I’m determined to get it right and I will keep fighting until we do.” Asked what was said by the travelling support, Postecoglou replied: “Probably not for here, mate.” Tottenham began brightly in Dorset but created little during the 90 minutes and were fortunate not to lose by a bigger margin. Bournemouth midfielder Ryan Christie struck a post and the impressive hosts failed to capitalise on a host of other chances to put the result beyond doubt. Spurs dropped below the Cherries, into 10th position, ahead of Sunday’s London derby at home to high-flying Chelsea following the latest setback in a patchy season so far. To compound a miserable evening for the injury-hit north London club, defender Ben Davies limped out of his 300th Premier League appearance and faces a spell on the sidelines. “It looks like he’s done his hamstring,” said Postecoglou. “Him and Radu (Dragusin) have played every game, it’s the one sort of position we can’t rotate. “He’ll obviously be out for a period of time now, we’ll just have to wait and see how long it is. “It’s kind of the consequence of us having the squad we have at the moment.” Match-winner Huijsen became Bournemouth’s youngest Premier League goalscorer by nodding in Marcus Tavernier’s corner. The Spain Under-21 defender, who is aged 19 years and 235 days, was making only his third top-flight start since a summer switch from Juventus, in place of the injured Marcos Senesi. Cherries boss Andoni Iraola said: “Dean has shown from the beginning that he is someone with confidence in himself. With the injury of Marcos, for sure he will have to play more. “It’s a very good win. I liked especially the second half; the first half we were playing decently, we were not conceding chances but probably we were not being a threat as we’ve been in the second one. “Now we will not regret it because we finished winning but when we started missing the chances in the second half it was a dangerous moment. Luckily for us, we could finish the job.” Speaking about Senesi, who sustained a quad injury in Saturday’s 4-2 win at Wolves, Iraola said: “It’s quite significant so probably he will be out for some time but we still have to do more assessment.”

Minnesota looks to stop skid vs. Bethune-CookmanNo. 22 Xavier aims to keep its perfect record intact Monday night in Fort Myers, Fla., when it takes on South Carolina in the Fort Myers Tip-Off. The Musketeers (5-0) are coming off an 80-55 victory on Wednesday over Siena, while the Gamecocks (3-2) beat Mercer on Thursday 84-72. Against Mercer, South Carolina sank a season-best 12 3-pointers -- tied for the fourth-most in a single game under third-year coach Lamont Paris. Jamarii Thomas, a senior transfer from Norfolk State, had 19 points and swished 4 of 5 shots from behind the arc. "Thomas got some good, clean looks," Paris said. "It was good to see those guys make their shots. Hopefully it gets those guys going in the right direction." On the season, the Gamecocks are making 7.8 3-pointers per game and shooting 32.5 percent from deep. Senior guard Jacobi Wright makes a team-best 1.8 3-pointers per game and shoots 37.5 percent from behind the arc. At 13.0 ppg, he is second on the team behind Collin Murray-Boyles (15.8). Xavier is allowing eight makes from deep per game and is letting opponents shoot 38.5 percent from behind the arc, which ranks 337th in the country. And despite an undefeated record so far for the Musketeers, third-year coach Sean Miller is worried about his players developing bad habits. "We have a virus that everybody is looking at the stat sheet, trying to get as many points as they possibly can," Miller said after the win over Siena. "They want to win, but they really want to win and score. We need a couple of guys that are willing to rebound, defend, make the extra pass, play at a high level defensively and understand what makes a team great." Marcus Foster did a decent job of doing a little bit of everything for Xavier against Siena, piling up 12 points, five rebounds, five assists and a steal. It was the first double-digit scoring outing for Foster -- a grad transfer from Furman -- in a Xavier uniform. Since 2008, Xavier is 25-11 against teams from the Southeastern Conference, but it hasn't played South Carolina in that stretch. --Field Level Media

Last week the United States authorized the use of American-made long-range missiles by Ukraine against Russia which the Russian government says risks escalation to a nuclear conflict in the almost three-year-old war. The Russian government reacted by announcing . It also announced . By how much and for how long, the government did not say. In light of what can only be seen as a proxy war in Ukraine between the United States along with its NATO allies and the Russian Federation, it is passing strange that the United States still relies on Russia for 27 percent of its enriched uranium. Oddly, the reaction in the in prices. Most customers for uranium—primarily nuclear power plants—have stockpiles and long-term contracts, so an immediate effect on spot prices was unlikely. But the price of uranium mining stocks soared in anticipation of greater pressure on mine supply outside Russia, . This development highlights a vulnerability among metal importers across the globe. When relations between a large exporter of minerals and a large importer of them goes south, the consequences can be significant. While it's true that the exporter loses some revenue, critical material and energy shortages can have large effects. Inadequate uranium fuel for nuclear power stations could eventually lead to loss of generating capacity. The United States is uniquely vulnerable to such cutoffs as I explained in about the federal government's efforts to increase U.S. self-sufficiency. The United States has a long list of mineral import dependencies that include nickel, copper, tungsten, cadmium, palladium, aluminum and silicon. None of those dependencies are going away anytime soon. When it comes to , China leads and Russia is third. Down in 10th place is Iran. All three countries are increasingly problematic sources of minerals for the United States and its allies as trade sanctions now weigh heavily on Russia and Iran, and a trade war with China appears to be brewing under the newly elected Trump administration. While the United States is second in overall mineral production, it consumes so much of its own production that it remains a large importer as noted above. With the end of the Cold War in the early 1990s, it was thought that a unified global market would henceforth operate uninterrupted and under peaceful conditions. That lasted until the COVID-19 pandemic led to snarled supply chains and subsequent rising tensions with Russia and the invasion of Ukraine led to trade sanctions. The result was a broad and ongoing shift in trade patterns as well as an increasing drive for domestic production, both to bolster domestic job growth and reduce vulnerability to loss of imports. A move toward domestic production can work if you have a large endowment of the resources needed to supply manufacturing and service industries. But, as I've pointed out previously, . Here is the problem in a nutshell as I explained in the context of what I believe is an ongoing trend toward deglobalization: Integration of the world economy favors those who control finance and can therefore extract ever larger payments from centralized systems under their ownership or authority. Deglobalization—which was already underway due to the effects of the pandemic on supply lines and is now speeding up due to the [Ukraine-Russia] war—will increasingly favor those who control stuff. And, it turns out that stuff is far more important to supporting our daily lives than the manipulations of the titans of finance. Extracting stuff and the financial rewards that spring from it from faraway countries can be a highly profitable approach to maximizing one's share of the world's wealth—until it isn't. Russia's restrictions on uranium exports to the United States are just one more indication that the trend toward deglobalization is ascendant. Pretending otherwise is a recipe for failure and increasingly, impoverishment. who lost access to cheap supplies of pipeline Russian natural gas in the wake of the Ukraine-Russia war and have now faced two years of economic contraction.The Titans have issues to fix and hope to keep slim playoff hopes alive when they host the Jags
