Notre Dame football is on the cusp of making its long-awaited return to the College Football Playoff. But to get one step closer to reaching that feat, Marcus Freeman's squad will have to take down one of the hottest and more surprising teams in college football this season: No. 17 Army. The sixth-ranked Irish (9-1 overall) will take on the Black Knights under the lights at Yankee Stadium on Saturday at 7 p.m. ET in a pseudo-CFP elimination game for both teams. The reason? Notre Dame doesn't play in a conference championship game and Army has a small margin of error to work with as one "Group 5" program will likely make the 12-team CFP, which is currently held by Boise State. Saturday's meeting at Yankee Stadium between Notre Dame and Army is also the 13th installment of the Irish's Shamrock Series game, and the third one held at Yankee Stadium in The Bronx. Freeman and the Irish enter Saturday's pivotal postseason picture game riding an eight-game win streak, and the current 8-seed in the CFP from Tuesday's CFP rankings. Notre Dame's defense has been one of the country's best all season, ranking third in scoring (11. 4 points per game) and fifth in red zone (.682). Getting past Army won't be all that easy for Notre Dame. Led by dual-threat quarterback Bryson Daily, the Black Knights have the top rushing offense in the country (334.9 rushing yards per game) and have won each of their nine games by double-digit figures. On the flip side, though, Notre Dame is Army's toughest challenge this season, posing quite the obstacle for Jeff Monken's squad.

NEW YORK — The huge rally for U.S. stocks lost momentum Dec. 5 as Wall Street counted down to a big jobs report that's coming on Friday. The crypto market had more action, and bitcoin briefly burst to a record above $103,000 before pulling back. The S&P 500 slipped 0.2 percent Thursday from the all-time high it had set the day before, its 56th of the year so far, to shave a bit off what's set to be one of its best years of the millennium. The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 0.6 percent, while the Nasdaq composite gave back 0.2 percent from its own record set Wednesday. Bitcoin powered above $100,000 for the first time the night before, after President-elect Donald Trump chose Paul Atkins, a Wofford College graduate who's seen as a crypto advocate, as his nominee to head the Securities and Exchange Commission. The cryptocurrency has climbed dramatically from less than $70,000 on Election Day, but it fell back as Thursday progressed toward $99,000, according to CoinDesk. Elsewhere on Wall Street, stocks of airlines helped lead the way following the latest bumps up to financial forecasts from carriers. American soared 16.8 percent after saying it's making more in revenue during the last three months of 2024 than it expected, and it will likely make a bigger profit than it had earlier forecast. Southwest climbed 2 percent after saying it's seeing stronger demand from leisure travelers while also raising its sales outlook for the holidays. On the losing end of Wall Street was Synposys, which tumbled 12.4 percent. The supplier for the semiconductor industry reported better profit for the latest quarter than analysts expected, but it also warned of "continued macro uncertainties" and gave a forecast for revenue in the current quarter that fell short of some analysts' estimates. American Eagle Outfitters fell even more, by 14.3 percent, after the retailer said it's preparing for "potential choppiness" outside of peak selling periods. NEW YORK — U.S. donors gave $3.6 billion on Nov. 3, an increase from the past two years, according to estimates from the nonprofit GivingTuesday. The Tuesday after Thanksgiving, now known as GivingTuesday, has become a major annual day for nonprofits to fundraise and otherwise engage their supporters. In both 2022 and 2023, nonprofits in the U.S. raised $3.1 billion on GivingTuesday. This year, 18.5 million people made donations to nonprofits and another 9.2 million people volunteered. Both the number of donors and the number of volunteers increased by 4 percent since 2023, according to the nonprofit GivingTuesday's estimates. SAN FRANCISCO — Waymo is gearing up to bring its robotaxi service to Miami which will accelerate an expansion that's been happening while its hobbled rivals remain in its rearview mirror. As part of the road map unfurled Dec. 5, Waymo plans to begin testing its driverless Jaguars in Miami next year, giving the robotaxis time to learn their way around Florida's biggest city before they start charging for rides in 2026. The move comes less than a month after Waymo opened up its robotaxi service to anyone looking for a ride in an 80-square-mile expanse in Los Angeles, extending its reach beyond its two major markets in Phoenix and San Francisco. Waymo also has plans to launch fleets in Atlanta and Austin next year as part of a partnership with the ride-hailing leader Uber. WASHINGTON — The number of Americans applying for unemployment benefits rose last week but remains at historically healthy levels. Jobless claim applications rose by 9,000 to 224,000 for the week of Nov. 30, the Labor Department reported Dec. 5. That's more than the 214,000 analysts were forecasting. Continuing claims, the total number of Americans collecting jobless benefits, fell by 25,000 to 1.87 million for the week of Nov. 23. That's down from the three-year high levels it had been at the past few weeks. Weekly applications for jobless benefits are considered a proxy for layoffs. FRANKFURT, Germany — Eight members of the OPEC+ alliance of oil exporting countries have decided to put off increasing oil production as they face weaker than expected demand and competing production from non-allied countries — factors that could keep oil prices stagnant into next year. The OPEC+ members decided at an online meeting to postpone by three months production increases that had been scheduled to take effect Jan. 1. The plan had been to start gradually restoring 2.2 million barrels per day over the course of 2025. The process will now be pushed back to April 1, 2025 and production increases will gradually take place over 18 months until October 2026. NEW YORK — Eli Lilly is spending another $3 billion to bulk up manufacturing as the drugmaker seeks to stoke production of some blockbuster drugs and future products. Lilly said Dec. 5 it will expand a Wisconsin factory it bought early this year. The investment will help meet growing demand for injectable products like its diabetes and obesity drugs, Mounjaro and Zepbound. Those drugs brought in a combined $4.4 billion in sales for Lilly in this year’s third quarter. The drugmaker plans to start construction of the expansion next year.Minor league pitchers Luis Moreno, Alejandro Crisostomo suspended after positive drug tests

Farmers blocked roads at many places across the state on Monday as part of their Punjab bandh call, affecting the commuter traffic in several areas. The bandh is being observed from 7 am to 4 pm on Monday, December 30. Farmers observed a sit-in at Dhareri Jattan Toll Plaza which affected vehicular movement on the Patiala-Chandigarh National Highway. A call for a shutdown was given last week by Samyukta Kisan Morcha (Non-political) and Kisan Mazdoor Morcha over the Centre not accepting the demands of protesting farmers. At Amritsar's Golden Gate, farmers started to assemble near the city's entry point while in Bathinda's Rampura Phul, they blocked roads. Farmer leader Sarwan Singh Pandher on Sunday said though there will be a complete bandh, emergency services will be allowed to operate. "The bandh will be observed from 7 am to 4 pm. However, emergency services will remain operational. Anyone travelling to the airport to catch a flight or anyone going to attend a job interview, or anyone needs to attend a wedding... all these things have been kept out of our bandh call," he said, according to PTI. Hundreds of farmers have been protesting at the Punjab-Haryana border demanding a legal guarantee of a minimum support price (MSP) for crops. The Railways has cancelled 150 trains due to the Punjab Bandh call. These include flagships like Vande Bharat and Shatabdi. Jagjit Singh Dallewal’s hunger strike continues amid Punjab bandh Meanwhile, 70-year-old farmer leader Jagjit Singh Dallewal's hunger strike entered its 35th day on Monday. Dallewal has so far refused medical treatment. Dallewal had earlier said he would not break his fast until the government agreed to the farmers' demands. The apex court has given the Punjab government time till December 31 to persuade Dallewal to shift to a hospital , granting the state the liberty to seek logistical support from the Centre, if necessary. Farmers, under the banner of SKM (Non-Political) and Kisan Mazdoor Morcha, have been camping at the Shambhu and Khanauri border points between Punjab and Haryana since February 13, after their march to Delhi was stopped by security forces. A "jatha" (group) of 101 farmers attempted to march to Delhi on foot three times between December 6 and 14 but were stopped by security personnel from Haryana. Besides the MSP, farmers are also demanding a debt waiver, pension, no hike in electricity tariffs, withdrawal of police cases, and "justice" for the victims of the 2021 Lakhimpur Kheri violence.
New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday said the latest round of elections has endorsed the message of development and defeated the politics of lies and betrayal propounded by the Congress and its allies. Addressing a gathering at the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) headquarters here, Modi said divisive forces, negative politics and dynasticism have been defeated in the Maharashtra election and bypolls in various states. He said the people of Maharashtra have voted for stability and taught a lesson to those who tried to create instability. The prime minister asserted that the message from the Maharashtra election is that of unity and it is also an endorsement of the "ek hai toh safe hai" slogan. Modi also said he bows down before the people of Jharkhand and that the BJP will work more zealously for the development of the state. "'Ek hai toh safe hai' has become the 'maha-mantra' for the entire nation and it has punished those who wanted to divide the country on caste and religious lines," he said, adding that all sections of the society have voted for the BJP. "The Congress and its ecosystem had thought that by spreading lies in the name of the Constitution, they could divide the Scheduled Castes (SCs), Scheduled Tribes (STs) and Other Backward Classes (OBC) in small groups. This is a solid slap on their faces," he said. "People have made divisive forces bite the dust. The Congress and its allies have failed to grasp the changed realities of the country's mood," the prime minister added. He asserted that voters do not want instability and they believe in nation first and do not like those dreaming about "chair first". The voters in Maharashtra also evaluated Congress on the basis of the false promises made in other states like Karnataka, Telangana and Himachal Pradesh, he added. "Neither their false promises nor their dangerous agenda worked in Maharashtra," Modi said. The prime minister said the Maharashtra election also shows that only one Constitution will work in India and that was given to the people of the country by B R Ambedkar. The Congress and its allies were again trying to create a wall of Article 370 of the Constitution in Jammu and Kashmir, he said. "I want to say this to the Congress and its allies that no force in the world can bring back Article 370 and insult our Constitution," Modi said. He said the Congress and its allies were double-faced on various issues, including the Wafq Board.

On Friday, Indian stock markets showed a muted opening amid a mix of global trends and the anticipation of the Reserve Bank of India's (RBI) policy outcomes. The Nifty 50 on the National Stock Exchange (NSE) started slightly in negative territory at 24,729.45, down over 12 points, whereas the BSE Sensex edged up by approximately 100 points to 81,887.54. In the initial trading session at the NSE, Bajaj Auto, Eicher Motor, Trent, ITC, and Hero Motocorp emerged as key gainers, while TCS, Wipro, LT, Tata Motors, and Ultra Cement were among the notable decliners. Sector-wise, indices such as Bank, IT, Media, Realty, and midsmall healthcare began in red, leaving others to rise. At the time of this report, 27 stocks in the Nifty 50 list showed gains, while 23 suffered losses. Market participants are eagerly awaiting the verdict of the Monetary Policy Committee of the RBI slated for later in the day, which is expected to provide significant market cues. The Indian stock markets have been on a five-day upward trajectory bolstered by foreign institutional investor (FII) buying and robust U.S. market performance. Ajay Bagga, a market and banking expert, remarked on the market's early Christmas cheer, noting the dual influences of the RBI's MPC meeting and the evening release of U.S. payroll data. The return of foreign portfolio investors (FPIs) to Indian markets has gained traction this week, potentially continuing into the Union Budget unveiling on February 1. Bagga emphasized the scope for India to attract FPI inflows provided there is consistent earnings growth. Technical analysis by Akshay Chinchalkar, the Head of Research at Axis Securities, pinpointed resistance between 24,800 and 24,850, with a possible peak at 24,965. A crucial support level appears near 24,360, a point previously considered critical resistance. Chinchalkar noted historical trends, stating that in the last two decades, the Nifty has advanced during this time 75% of the time, with average and median returns of 1.7% and 2.4% correspondingly. Market experts underscored the significance of the ongoing MPC meeting in Mumbai, though chances of a rate cut remain slim. Should the RBI alter its policy amidst an economic slowdown, markets are likely to react. Meanwhile, Asian markets displayed a mixed performance, echoing setbacks on Wall Street where U.S. markets closed lower, with the Dow Jones losing 248.33 points (-0.55%). OPEC nations, including Saudi Arabia and Russia, have agreed to prolong their oil supply cuts until March 2025. (With inputs from agencies.)

Elon Musk has come out in support of Poornima Ramarao, mother of Suchir Balaji, the Indian-origin techie and a former employee of OpenAI, who was found dead at his apartment in San Francisco. In a post on the social media platform X, Musk posed a question on the official suicide ruling which resonated with Ramarao's version of foul play. Aged 26, prior to his demise, Balaji had accused ChatGPT-maker OpenAI of violating copyright privileges. Although the local authorities and medical reports ruled out foul play, Ramarao has urged the FBI to investigate regarding the struggle in her son's apartment and inconsistencies in what became of the official autopsy findings. Doubts Over Official Reports The San Francisco police department stated that their initial investigation found no signs of foul play in Balaji’s death. However, Poornima Ramarao, determined to uncover the truth, hired a private investigator and conducted a second autopsy. According to her, the private findings contradict the police’s conclusion. She shared on X that Balaji’s apartment appeared ransacked, with evidence of a struggle in the bathroom, including bloodstains. “This is not suicide; it’s a cold-blooded murder,” she alleged in a post that caught Elon Musk’s attention. Musk’s Reaction Responding to Ramarao’s claims, Musk commented, “This doesn’t seem like a suicide,” amplifying the growing skepticism surrounding Balaji’s death. The billionaire’s statement has fueled public interest and calls for a thorough investigation. Musk’s involvement adds weight to the concerns raised by Ramarao, who has demanded that federal agencies step in to reexamine the case. Whistleblower’s Concerns About AI Before his untimely death, Suchir Balaji was a prominent voice against the misuse of AI. In an interview with The New York Times, he accused OpenAI of unlawfully using copyrighted data and expressed concerns that technologies like ChatGPT were causing more harm than good. Balaji left OpenAI after nearly four years, stating he could no longer support a technology he believed posed risks to humanity.

HBO And Cablevision Founder Charles Dolan Remembered As “Visionary” And “Fearless Entrepreneur”ANN ARBOR, Mich. (AP) — Michigan gave athletic director Warde Manuel a five-year contract extension Thursday on the heels of the Wolverines' upset over rival Ohio State and a strong start to the basketball season. Manuel, who has held the position since 2016, signed through June 30, 2030, the school announced. Manuel is also chairman of the College Football Playoff selection committee. “During Warde’s tenure as director, Athletics has put a structure in place where our student-athletes compete for Big Ten and national championships, excel in the classroom, and proudly graduate with their University of Michigan degrees,” university President Santa J. Ono said in the announcement. Michigan had a disappointing football season, finishing 7-5 (5-4 Big Ten), but a 13-10 win over then-No. 2 Ohio State took some pressure off of the program. The Buckeyes were favored by 21 points, the widest point spread for the rivalry since 1978, according to ESPN Stats and Info. The Wolverines won the national championship last year in their final season led by coach Jim Harbaugh, whose tenure at the school involved multiple NCAA investigations for recruiting and sign-stealing allegations. Manuel supported Harbaugh through those processes. In basketball, the women's team made its season debut (No. 23) in the AP Top 25 this week. The men are 7-1 a season after firing coach Juwan Howard, who lost a school-record 24 games in 2023-24 as Michigan plummeted to a last-place finish in the Big Ten for the first time since 1967. Michigan has won 52 Big Ten championships since 2020. “Every day, I am thankful to work at this great institution and to represent Michigan Athletics," Manuel said in a statement. "I especially want to thank the student-athletes, coaches and staff who compete for each of our teams and who have helped us achieve unparalleled success athletically and academically. I am excited to continue giving back to a university that has provided me with so much over my career.” Get poll alerts and updates on the AP Top 25 throughout the season. Sign up here .
