Late goal from Toronto gives Boston Fleet first loss in first gameAre Trump's tariffs going to be worth it?President-elect Donald Trump’s social media company, Trump Media & Technology (TMTG), reportedly filed a trademark application Monday (Nov. 18) for a service called TruthFi that would be a platform for cryptocurrency payments, financial custody services and trading in digital assets. The application did not give many details about the project or when it might be launched, but it would mark a diversification of the company that is now largely focused on Truth Social , The New York Times reported Thursday (Nov. 21). Washington-based trademark lawyer Josh Gerben said in the report that while companies can use a trademark application to reserve a name for as long as a few years, they usually file for one with intent to use it. “In my experience, most of the time if a client is going to file an application , there is something going on,” Gerben said, per the report. It was reported Monday (Nov. 18) that TMTG was in advanced talks to buy cryptocurrency trading venue Bakkt . Bakkt was created and is owned by Intercontinental Exchange , the owner of the New York Stock Exchange . It was reported in June that Bakkt was working with a financial adviser to weigh strategic options. TMTG has become one of the most actively traded stocks since Trump’s election victory, and it is now valued at $6 billion — enabling it to buy other companies. Bitcoin and the global cryptocurrency market have hit record highs since the Nov. 5 election, as traders expect the crypto sector to benefit from Trump’s support of cryptocurrencies. Trump pledged during the campaign to transform the United States into the “crypto capital of the planet,” while during the President Joe Biden administration, the crypto space suffered what industry players alleged to be “regulation by enforcement” under the Securities and Exchange Commission , PYMNTS reported Nov. 6. The president-elect has promised to replace SEC Chair Gary Gensler with someone who would be more sympathetic to crypto, fueling speculation that the SEC would pivot to a more laissez-faire stance under a new chair. It was reported Monday (Nov. 18) that Trump was meeting with Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong to discuss the incoming administration’s personnel appointments .

ADA, XLM and LNEX See Whale Activity Surge Ahead Of 600% Stellar, Lunex and Cardano Price PredictionsNovember 30 - The Memphis Grizzlies are learning the benefits of giving this season. When Memphis hosts the Indiana Pacers on Sunday, the Grizzlies will be seeking their sixth consecutive win and their 10th in their past 13 games. Their November success has been the result of an unselfish, team-oriented approach. The Grizzlies enter Saturday leading the NBA with 30.4 assists per game. Memphis dished out 36 assists on 47 made baskets in Friday's 120-109 home victory over New Orleans. "The ball movement (was) great," Grizzlies coach Taylor Jenkins said. "I think we had nine or 10 guys with two or more assists -- or 10 out of 11 guys (with) an assist, which is great." Ja Morant, who missed Wednesday's home win against Detroit due to a bruised knee, led the Grizzlies with seven assists against New Orleans, and Marcus Smart had six off the bench. Despite being limited to 10 games this season, Morant leads the team with 9.1 assists per game, followed by Scotty Pippen Jr. (5.7) and Smart (4.1). "When the ball's moving, it's about getting everyone involved," Pippen said. "It makes it a lot of fun to play with everyone. So, I feel like that's (when we are) the most dangerous, when everyone's touching the ball and everyone feels aggressive." Friday's win marked Memphis' first NBA Cup victory in the second year of the event. The Grizzlies had lost their first seven games of NBA Cup group play. As for Indiana, the Pacers were eliminated from contention for the NBA Cup knockout round with their 130-106 home loss Friday to Detroit. Indiana is 0-3 in Cup play. The Pacers had won three straight games -- all at home -- before being overpowered by the Pistons. Pascal Siakam and Tyrese Haliburton led Indiana with 21 and 19 points, respectively. While the Pacers have struggled during the first two months of the season, Indiana coach Rick Carlisle said several of his younger players have shown signs of contributing at a significant level, including second-year forward Jarace Walker. Walker, 21, finished with 10 points and notched five of the team's nine steals off the bench on Friday. Additionally, third-year guard Bennedict Mathurin, 22, has excelled in a starting role and is averaging 17.7 points per game, while Quenton Jackson, 26, has averaged 10.3 points in his past three games. "(Walker) went in there (Friday against Detroit) and decisively stepped into shot and he was physical," Carlisle said. "Right now is a time for guys like Jarace and Q (Jackson) and Ben (Mathurin) to experience what it's like to have this kind of responsibility and respond as best they can." Mathurin is second on the team in scoring behind Siakam (19.9 points per game), while Haliburton's 16.6 scoring average ranks third. Sunday's game is the first of two regular-season meetings between the teams. Indiana and Memphis split last season's two meetings, with each squad winning at home. --Field Level Media Our Standards: The Thomson Reuters Trust Principles. , opens new tab
Steelers Likely Facing Contract Holdout From Russell Wilson's Top WeaponRuud van Nistelrooy admits he was “hurt” at having to leave Manchester United last month. Van Nistelrooy returned to Old Trafford as Erik ten Hag’s assistant in the summer and had a four-game interim spell in charge following his compatriot’s sacking in October. He left the club in the wake of Ruben Amorim’s appointment but was only out of work for two weeks after being appointed Leicester’s new manager on a deal until 2027. The 48-year-old had a glittering playing career with United and was disappointed his return had to end so soon. “The moment I took over the interim job what I said was I’m here to help United and to stay to help United, and I meant it,” he said. “So I was disappointed, yeah, very much so, and it hurt I had to leave. “The only job I would take as an assistant was at United because of the bond that I have with the people in the club and the fans. “But in the end I got my head around it because I also understand the new manager. I’m in football long enough, and I’ve managed myself, that you can think of a situation, me being there, I understand. “I spoke to Ruben about it, fair enough to him, the conversation was grateful, man to man, person to person, manager to manager, and that helped a lot to move on and straightaway get into talks with new possibilities which of course lifted my spirits.” The Dutchman takes on a difficult job at the King Power Stadium as he is tasked with keeping Leicester in the Premier League. He inherits an influential dressing room, which has seen a number of managers come and go over the last few years. Ruud's here for his first press conference as our Manager 😃 — Leicester City (@LCFC) Van Nistelrooy revealed he has done his due diligence and also let the players know as well. “It’s the only way you can work. It’s mutual respect. I also mentioned to the players yesterday that I looked at the squad and started to make phone calls about players, because in football everyone knows everyone,” he said. “With two or three phone calls you hear stories about 20 players and for me it was important that you hear there are good characters there. That’s important, that there are good people there. “I look at the players how they play. I obviously don’t know them but I got general information and the individuals that they are a good bunch of people. That was important for me to get in.”

British driver Abbi Pulling has been crowned champion of the F1 Academy - the all-female racing series - after she finished second in Qatar Grand Prix last night. Alpine’s Pulling, 21, has taken eight victories from 11 races this season to claim the title ahead of next weekend’s concluding round in Abu Dhabi. Pulling, from Gosberton in Lincolnshire, will be rewarded with a fully-funded season in GB3 - the United Kingdom’s number one single-seater category - with the Rodin team. “It is nice to hear those words,” said Pulling when informed she had won the second edition of series which aims to discover the first female F1 driver in almost half-a-century. “It has been a tougher season than most would think. I had to win this year, I had no choice. I have struggled financially so to get the prize next year makes me so happy. There are so many people in my corner to thank, my family, the sacrifice my dad has made, it is just a sigh of relief and a weight off my shoulders. I am going to really put in the work and make the most of the opportunity. I will not leave any stone unturned.” Related Story QIAF 2024 to conclude at Katara with awards ceremony Qatar Armed Forces join OCC for Nato partner countriesThunderstorms, humid conditions to continue across the Hunter | live updates

Amr Talaat, Egypt’s Minister of Communications and Information Technology, presided over the closing session of the second Global Dialogue on Artificial Intelligence (AI) Governance. Held in Egypt from 19 to 21 November, the event convened members of the African Union (AU) AI Working Group, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), and leading AI experts from Africa, alongside prominent research institutions and universities in Europe. This dialogue aimed to advance efforts toward implementing the African Union’s continental AI strategy. This initiative aligns with the African Union’s operational mechanisms and underscores Egypt’s leadership as chair of the AU AI Working Group. In his speech, Talaat emphasized that this meeting culminated efforts initiated in 2019, when Egypt called upon African nations through the AU to form a working group to draft an AI strategy for the continent. Since then, Egypt has led a coalition of approximately 20 African countries in crafting a strategy focused on the safe use of AI, prioritizing ethical considerations and data neutrality. The dialogue also involved key international institutions such as the OECD and AI leaders, including representatives from the United Kingdom and the United States. Talaat noted that this second dialogue brought together representatives from over 20 African and non-African nations and international organizations. Discussions focused on mechanisms for implementing the African AI Strategy, foundational principles for an African AI Charter, and a roadmap for achieving the strategy’s objectives. He commended African countries for their contributions, highlighting Egypt’s regional leadership in the ICT sector through its chairmanship of the working group. These efforts reflected the perspectives of African nations on AI-related issues. Ambassador Amr Goweily, Assistant Foreign Minister for Multilateral Affairs and International Security, stressed the importance of AI’s inclusion in the Global Digital Compact, with Egypt and other African countries playing active roles in its formulation. Egypt remains committed to global mechanisms to ensure the safe and beneficial use of this transformative technology. Angela Cassell Bush, Commissioner of the Liberia Telecommunications Authority, underscored African nations’ commitment to leveraging AI for development, particularly by raising awareness and empowering youth. Lucia Russo, an economic expert and policy analyst representing the OECD, commended the collaboration between the OECD and Egypt’s Ministry of Communications. She acknowledged Egypt’s progress under its national AI strategy, including capacity building and regional leadership in shaping Africa’s AI strategy. The dialogue’s in-depth discussions highlighted Africa’s readiness to capitalize on the strategy’s opportunities. Representatives from the UK and the US reiterated their support for regional discussions on the African AI strategy. The US representative also referenced a related initiative announced during the UN General Assembly in September 2024. The session featured notable contributions from Hoda Baraka, Advisor to the Minister for Technology Skills Development; Khaled Taha, Advisor for International Relations; Dr. Abir Shakweer, Assistant Resident Representative at the UN Development Programme in Egypt; and representatives from the UK, Italian, and US embassies. This second dialogue builds on the success of the first session held in Paris in March 2024, which provided critical support for African countries in drafting the continental AI strategy. During the sessions, the OECD presented best practices for implementing the African AI Strategy, adopted at the AU mid-year summit in July 2024. Discussions covered fostering international and regional cooperation, identifying actionable steps, and securing resources for implementation. Sessions also explored global expertise in integrating AI into priority sectors for Africa, such as government services, healthcare, education, and agriculture, as well as developing an African AI ethics charter.What DOGE dude Vivek Ramaswamy got wrong about Trump’s victory (Hint: It’s a lot)
Fianna Fail and Fine Gael eye independent TDs as option to secure Dail majorityTwo sides looking to escape the shackles of relegation in the Turkish Super Lig will face off on Sunday when Kayserispor welcome Alanyaspor to Kadir Has Stadium. The hosts are the first team in the relegation zone, but the visitors are only one spot and two points ahead, making this a relegation six-pointer. © Imago Kayserispor are finding it difficult to rediscover the form that helped them go on a five-match unbeaten streak in the Super Lig between October 5 and November 8. The Anatolian Star have lost their last two matches by a combined 9-2 scoreline, losing 6-2 to Fenerbahce before a 3-0 defeat against Caykur Rizespor in their last league game. The loss to Rizespor was a sore one for Kayserispor who had two men sent off, with manager Sinan Kaloglu getting a red card in the first half, before Stephane Bahoken received a second yellow card in the 75th minute. The Kayseri-based side must now win the relegation six-pointer against Alanyaspor, as victory on Sunday will take them directly above the opposition and out of the relegation zone. However, the Anatolian Star have failed to win any of their six home matches in this campaign, picking up three wins and three draws each. © Imago Meanwhile, Alanyaspor ended a five-game winless run in the Super Lig with a hard-fought 2-1 win over Trabzonspor last Saturday, playing over 20 minutes with a man down. The victory seemed to have opened the floodgates for Fatih Tekke 's side, who followed up that game with a 4-1 win over third division side Fethiyespor on Wednesday. Alanyaspor climbed out of the relegation zone following last weekend's win, and a win on Sunday could further steer them away from the zone, possibly opening up a five-point gap if other results are favourable to them. In a worst-case scenario, the Alanya-based side will hope to avoid defeat, which would still leave them above the relegation zone, and securing draws in their last two away games will leave them confident of the possibility of achieving this. © Imago Kayserispor will have to make do without 32-year-old forward Bahoken, who will miss this clash through suspension after his dismissal last time out. Centre-back Majid Hosseini also continues to struggle with a knee injury and is not expected back on the pitch until the middle of this month. Alanyaspor will remain without defender Furkan Bayir , who has an ankle injury and is expected to be sidelined until the latter part of this month. Yusuf Ozdemir was sent off in the win over Trabzonspor and is suspended for this clash, a similar scenario with Nuno Lima who has accumulated an unhealthy number of yellow cards. Kayserispor possible starting lineup: Piri; Attamhah, Kolovetsios, Carole; Kaldirim, Karimi, Bourabia, Yilmaz, Sazdagi; Boa Morte, Cardoso Alanyaspor possible starting lineup: Taskiran; Balkovec, Aliti, Aksoy, Hadergjonaj; Richard, Makouta; Augusto, Janvier, Karaca; Cordova Kayserispor are struggling at the moment and are on a downward spiral, while they have especially struggled on home soil. With Alanyaspor's recent resurgence, we believe that the visitors have enough at the moment to take something from this game, which is why we are predicting a stalemate.
