NoneVladimir Putin's assassination targets have been revealed after some top-secret documents were declassified for the first time by US intelligence. The "kill list", which has been kept hidden for years and has now been unveiled thanks to a Freedom of Information Act request, contains the names of people on the Russian president's "kill list" - and includes his critics, opponents, as well as other politicians. Over the past few years, there have been a series of instances during which prominent critics of the Kremlin, and Putin in particular, died in suspicious circumstances - from falling out of windows to being poisoned or taking their own lives in inexplicable ways. Now, the long-classified memorandum by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence has been released, and it sheds lights on some of those mysterious deaths. The document declares: "Putin probably authorizes assassinations of high-profile figures abroad. "The Russian Government will continue to use its intelligence services and other loyal entities to assassinate suspected terrorists as well as individuals abroad whom it deems as threats to [...] Vladimir Putin's regime. Our confidence level for this judgment is high, based on official Russian statements and the findings of foreign governments in countries where assassinations have taken place." The document was declassified following a request from Bloomberg , with the publication reporting that American politicians had tucked information inside a 2016 intelligence spending bill that tasked US intelligence with preparing a classified assessment for the committees - and it was about "the use of political assassinations as a form of statecraft by the Russian Federation since January 1, 2000." The memo mentions the "first clear case" of Putin ordering an assassination abroad took place in 2004, when Zelimkhan Yandarbiyev - who was the second president of the Chechen Republic of Ichkeria between 1996 and 1997 - was killed. He was assassinated when a bomb ripped through his SUV in Doha, Qatar . Authorities found the killing was carried out by agents from Russia 's Main Intelligence Directorate (GRU), Anatoly Belashkov and Vasily Bogachev. The pair were sentenced to life imprisonment by a Qatari court before being extradited to Russia, where they were expected to serve their sentence. However, Russian prison authorities later claimed they never found Belashkov and Bogachev. Another assassination mentioned in the memo is that of British-naturalised Russian defector Alexander Litvinenko, a former officer of the Russian Federal Security Service (FSB) who specialised in tackling organised crime, who was killed in London in 2006. The former Russian spy was poisoned with radioactive polonium-210 which was slipped in a cup of tea in a London hotel and died three weeks later. Litvinenko had fled to Britain after criticising Putin and after his death, it was revealed that MI6 had paid him. It is believed his murder was signed off by Putin - which the Kremlin has always denied. Two of his cronies, Dmitri Kovtun and Andrei Lugovoi, were accused of carrying out the hit. In 2022, Kovtun died aged 56 in a Moscow hospital due to complications from Covid-19, while Lugovoi is still wanted in the UK for Litvinenko's murder. The US intelligence report said about the assassination: "The official British inquiry into Litvinenko's murder concluded that Putin 'probably approved' it, based upon a review of physical evidence and decision-making on matters related to the security services." The memo also mentions the death of Russian businessman Alexander Perepelichny in 2012. The 44-year-old collapsed in Surrey after pending the night with his mistress in Paris - and according to the document, he was "assassinated with a biological toxin in the UK in 2012 shortly before he was scheduled to testify about a Kremlin tax fraud network." Another suspected killing mentioned in the document is that of Alexander Bednov, a critic of the Kremlin, who died in 2015. The document says: "At least some key separatist figures in Ukraine's Donbas Region who resisted Kremlin orders, such as Oleksandr Bednov, have probably been killed at Moscow's behest, reflecting Russia's priority on maintaining control over the region." While some of the cases mentioned in the document are from years ago, there are still fears that since the invasion of Ukraine , Russia has continued pursuing Putin foes abroad. Some of the most high-profile deaths that have been linked to Putin include that of his opponent Alexei Navalny, 47, who died in February in a jail in the Russian Arctic while serving a 19-year sentence on "extremism" charges. In August last year, Yevgeny Prigozhin, a vocal Putin critic and the head of the Wagner mercenary group, died in a fireball private jet crash. The death of Russian TV chef Alexei Zimin, who fled to London after opposing the Ukraine war, has also been linked to Putin. The 52-year-old was found dead in a Belgrade hotel while on a promotional tour to the Serbian capital.

Iowa quarterback Cade McNamara released a statement Friday slamming the "100% false" media reports that suggested he had thrown his final pass for the Hawkeyes. McNamara has been sidelined since sustaining a concussion during the Oct. 26 win against Northwestern. Backup quarterback Brendan Sullivan has started the last two games for the Hawkeyes (6-4, 4-3 Big Ten) but is out with an ankle injury for Saturday's game at Maryland (4-6, 1-6). Iowa coach Kirk Ferentz said earlier this week that Jackson Stratton will be the likely starter against the Terrapins if McNamara is unavailable. McNamara's cloudy status prompted speculation on a podcast this week that he was "not mentally ready to play." The podcast hosts from the Des Moines Register and The Athletic also suggested that McNamara -- who played three years at Michigan (2020-22) before transferring to Iowa -- is not "fit to play quarterback in the Big Ten right now." "We don't want to bury his career yet, but it does seem like that interception against Northwestern was his last snap as a Hawkeye," Leistikow said. McNamara, who passed for 1,017 yards with six touchdowns and five interceptions in eight games this season, released a statement updating his current status. "My status is the same as it's always been -- a proud member of this football team," he said. McNamara said he has not yet been cleared to play. He said he was cleared to practice on Sunday but suffered an "adverse reaction" and was unable to practice this week and therefore unable to travel with the team to Maryland. "I have been working with the University of Iowa doctors and trainers, a concussion specialist focused on vision training, as well as engaging in hyperbaric treatments as frequently as possible," McNamara said. "I have every intention to play versus Nebraska next Friday night and I am confident that my teammates will return from Maryland with a win." Including his time with the Wolverines, McNamara has completed 60.9 percent of his passes for 4,703 yards with 31 touchdowns and 15 interceptions in 34 games. --Field Level MediaAuthor sheds light on James Dean’s secret life in new book
Radical Jaguar rebrand and new logo sparks ire online NEW YORK (AP) — A promotional video for a rebrand of British luxury car brand Jaguar is being criticized online for showing models in brightly colored outfits — and no car. The rebrand, which includes a new logo, is slated to launch Dec. 2 during Miami Art Week, when the company will unveil a new electric model. But Jaguar Land Rover, a unit of India’s Tata Motors Ltd., has been promoting it online. The Jaguar brand is in the middle of a transition to going all-electric. “Copy Nothing,” marketing materials read. “We’re here to delete the ordinary. To go bold. To copy nothing.” Trump has promised again to release the last JFK files. But experts say don’t expect big revelations DALLAS (AP) — The nation is set to mark 61 years since President John F. Kennedy was assassinated as his motorcade passed through downtown Dallas on Nov. 22, 1963. Even after over six decades, conspiracy theories about what happened that day still swirl and the desire to follow every thread of information hasn’t waned. President-elect Donald Trump made promises over the summer that if reelected he would declassify the remaining records. At this point, only a few thousand of millions of pages of records related to the assassination have yet to be fully released. And those who have studied what's been released so far say that the public shouldn’t anticipate any earth-shattering revelations even if the remaining files are declassified. Bitcoin is at the doorstep of $100,000 as post-election rally rolls on NEW YORK (AP) — Bitcoin is jumping again, rising above $98,000 for the first time Thursday. The cryptocurrency has been shattering records almost daily since the U.S. presidential election, and has rocketed more than 40% higher in just two weeks. It's now at the doorstep of $100,000. Cryptocurrencies and related investments like crypto exchange-traded funds have rallied because the incoming Trump administration is expected to be more “crypto-friendly.” Still, as with everything in the volatile cryptoverse, the future is hard to predict. And while some are bullish, other experts continue to warn of investment risks. NFL issues security alert to teams and the players' union following recent burglaries The NFL has issued a security alert to teams and the players’ union following recent burglaries involving the homes of Chiefs stars Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce. In a memo obtained by The Associated Press, the league says homes of professional athletes across multiple sports have become “increasingly targeted for burglaries by organized and skilled groups.” Law enforcement officials noted these groups target the homes on days the athletes have games. Players were told to take precautions and implement home security measures to reduce the risk of being targeted. Some of the burglary groups have conducted extensive surveillance on targets. Penn State wins trademark case over retailer's use of vintage logos, images PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Penn State has won a closely watched trademark fight over an online retailer’s use of its vintage logos and images. A Pennsylvania jury awarded Penn State $28,000 in damages earlier this week over products made and sold by the firms Vintage Brand and Sportswear Inc. Penn State accused the firms of selling counterfeit clothing and accessories. The defendants said their website makes clear they are not affiliated with Penn State. At least a dozen other schools have sued the defendants on similar grounds, but the Pennsylvania case was the first to go to trial. Defense lawyers declined to comment on the verdict and whether they planned an appeal. Has a waltz written by composer Frederic Chopin been discovered in an NYC museum? NEW YORK (AP) — A previously unknown musical work written by composer Frederic Chopin appears to have been found in a library in New York City. The Morgan Library & Museum says the untitled and unsigned piece is the first new manuscript of the Romantic era virtuoso to be discovered in nearly a century. Robinson McClellan, the museum’s curator, says he stumbled across the work in May while going through a collection brought to the Manhattan museum years earlier. He worked with outside experts to verify the document's authenticity. But there’s debate whether the waltz is an original Chopin work or merely one written in his hand. Volcano on Iceland's Reykjanes Peninsula erupts for the 7th time in a year GRINDAVIK, Iceland (AP) — A volcano on the Reykjanes Peninsula in southwestern Iceland is spewing lava from a fissure in its seventh eruption since December. Iceland's seismic monitors said the eruption started with little warning late Wednesday and created a long fissure but looked to be smaller than eruptions in August and May. Around 50 houses were evacuated after the Civil Protection agency issued the alert, along with guests at the famous Blue Lagoon resort, according to the national broadcaster. The repeated eruptions over the past year have caused damage to the town of Grindavík and forced people to relocate. Australian teen and British woman who drank tainted alcohol in Laos have died, bringing toll to 5 VIENTIANE, Laos (AP) — An Australian teenager and a British woman have died after drinking tainted alcohol in Laos in what Australia’s prime minister said was every parent’s nightmare. Officials earlier said an American and two Danish tourists also had died following reports that multiple people had been sickened in town popular with backpackers. Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese told Parliament that 19-year-old Bianca Jones had died after being evacuated from Vang Vieng, Laos, for treatment in a Thai hospital. Her friend, also 19, remains hospitalized in Thailand. Later Thursday, Britain said a British woman also died and the media in the U.K. identified her as 28-year-old Simone White. US ahead in AI innovation, easily surpassing China in Stanford's new ranking The U.S. leads the world in developing artificial intelligence technology, surpassing China in research and other important measures of AI innovation, according to a newly released Stanford University index. There’s no surefire way to rank global AI leadership but Stanford researchers have made an attempt by measuring the “vibrancy” of the AI industry across a variety of dimensions, from how much research and investment is happening to how responsibly the technology is being pursued to prevent harm. Following the U.S. and China were the United Kingdom, India and the United Arab Emirates. Pop star Ed Sheeran helps favorite soccer team sign player before getting on stage with Taylor Swift It turns out British pop star Ed Sheeran is also good at recruiting soccer players. Sheeran is a minority shareholder at English soccer team Ipswich Town and it needed his help over the summer to get a player to join the club. Ipswich CEO Mark Ashton tells a Soccerex industry event in Miami: “Ed jumped on a Zoom call with him at the training ground, just before he stepped on stage with Taylor Swift. Hopefully that was a key part in getting the player across the line.” Ashton didn’t disclose the player in question, saying only: “He’s certainly scoring a few goals.”

The three performances will be on February 25 at 8pm, and February 26 at 2pm and 8pm. After 25 years in the harsh and unforgiving spotlight of politics, The Wharf Revue has decided to step away from public life. The Wharf Revue: The End of the Wharf as We Know It will see the return of Phillip Scott on the stage, along with the extremely talented cast consisting of Jonathan Biggins, Mandy Bishop, Drew Forsythe and David Whitney. Many public figures who’ve appeared in the show regularly over the years are lining up for a place in the final hurrah: Keating, Howard, Downer, Costello, Gillard, Abbott, Carr and other throwbacks too numerous to mention. “It’s an opportunity to spend more time with family – at the end of the day, this is about the need for renewal,” a spokesperson said earlier this year. “We’ll serve one last term to max out the super and then try to pick up some kind of consultancy work or do a series of Survivor – look, it’s too early to say but it has been an honour to serve the Australian people.” The Art House is honoured to be hosting this end of an era event by much loved Aussie performers. On opening night at the Canberra Theatre Centre, The End of the Wharf as We Know It was met with standing ovations and a lot of emotion as audiences bid farewell to an enduring legend in the world of musical theatre. The revue is always funny, always current and always expertly performed, this production has been at the top of its game for the past 25 years and Central Coast audiences will be able to choose from three performances close to home.

Cryptocurrency exchanges that ET spoke to believe the proximity of Elon Musk-the self-styled "Dogefather"- to the incoming American dispensation, greater regulatory clarity at home and global crypto exchanges entering India may lead to a spike in professional interest in cryptocurrencies and help propel a lacklustre crypto job market. "With crypto being discussed for the first time as part of the election campaign," Edul Patel, chief executive of Mudrex, believes the US presidential election marked a watershed moment for the industry. Mudita Chauhan, CHRO of CoinDCX, echoes this sentiment. She said, "This change in the US could have a ripple effect, encouraging other countries with less clarity around crypto regulation to adopt more positive frameworks." "A few years ago, one of the biggest challenges was convincing potential hires that the crypto industry was legitimate and not a scam," said Patel.

With institutional investors entering the market and increased uptake of crypto and blockchain, "the need for skilled professionals across technical, legal, and operational roles will be in demand," said Patel who is actively hiring. Noting that the current demand for crypto talent is 60% of what it was in November 2023 and just a fifth of what it was in 2022-when there were over 13,000 active job openings in the Web3, blockchain, crypto and crypto-linked domains in India, Prasadh MS, head of workforce research at specialist staffing firm Xpheno, said, "There are currently 2,500+ active openings in the market, with a 30-days freshness cutoff." Cities like Bengaluru, Mumbai, Hyderabad, Pune, and Gurugram are home to a vibrant pool of Web3 and blockchain professionals . Illustrating examples of recent executive-level hires such as Prashant Verma, chief growth and marketing officer who joined from Licious, Abhinav Jain, chief financial officer, formerly of Pharmeasy and Tushar Tarun, head of legal who was earlier with Cashfree-all joined CoinDCX. Chauhan said, "Leaders from top technology companies, fintech giants, and other established sectors are increasingly making the move to Web3, bringing valuable expertise to help drive the industry forward." Interestingly, however, compensation in the crypto space has stabilised after sharp hikes in earlier years. Although average salary levels had earlier grown between 8% and 35% for some of the top crypto skills in 2021 and early 2022, Xpheno's Prasadh said, "The heydays for crypto talent with unprecedented hikes and wage wars are now in the rear-view mirror." Average salary packages for niche roles like Blockchain architects, developers and specialists range from ₹12-32 lakh per annum for early-career professionals and can go up to ₹35-78 lakh for seasoned experts, he said. However, these figures have remained flat for 18 months, reflecting the broader slowdown in tech hiring. Avinash Shekhar, chief executive of Pi42, says that global exchanges entering India could reignite competition, with international players offering 50-75% salary hikes to attract top talent. Driven by advancements in blockchain and increased institutional adoption, he predicts peak hiring activity by March 2025. Shekhar is preparing for the crypto talent arms race by "Creating communities within IITs and other top institutions. Internship programmes with rigorous selection processes are focused on developing new talent thereby offering strategic networks and partnerships to attract seasoned professionals. We are also enhancing our benefits package to include remote work options, wellness programmes, and professional development opportunities."
PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Makenzie McGill II ran for 155 yards and scored a pair of touchdowns and North Texas ended a five-game losing streak beating Temple 24-17 on Saturday in a regular-season ender for both teams. The win helped North Texas (6-6, 3-5 American Athletic Conference) reach bowl eligibility. Prior to Saturday, the Mean Green hadn’t won since Oct. 12 when they beat Florida Atlantic 41-37. The game’s scoring outcome was settled by halftime. Chandler Morris threw a 14-yard touchdown to DT Sheffield on the game’s opening drive for a 7-0 UNT lead. Kali Nguma added a 36-yard field 19 seconds later following a Temple turnover. The Owls (3-9, 2-6) got on the board with Maddux Trujillo’s 44-yard field goal. McGill made it 17-3 with a 39-yard scoring run. Eight seconds into the second quarter, McGill ran 51 yards to the end zone for a 24-3 edge. Temple got two touchdowns before the half ended when Joquez Smith and Evan Simon each ran it in from the 1 to reduce the deficit to 24-17. North Texas clinched a bowl berth for the 15th time in program history and eighth time since 2013. It’s the first time in the Eric Morris era North Texas has qualified for a bowl. Temple hasn’t posted a winning season since 2019 when it went 8-5 and ended the season with a 55-13 loss to North Carolina in the Northrop Grumman Military Bowl. The Owls have ended the last four seasons with records of 3-9. ___ Get poll alerts and updates on the AP Top 25 throughout the season. Sign up .

Andre Onana was on hand to keep Liam Delap at bay either side of half time, but could do nothing when Omari Hutchinson 's long-range effort spun off of Noussair Mazraoui to go into the top corner. After joining from Sporting Lisbon, the 1-1 draw was the first time Amorim has failed to win a league game this season.

Man Utd ratings vs Ipswich as Onana saves Amorim from embarrassment in first game as boss MANCHESTER UNITED began the Ruben Amorim era with a 1-1 draw away at Ipswich. Marcus Rashford needed just 81 seconds to put the Red Devils in front at Portman Road, tapping home an Amad Diallo cross. But Ipswich hit back when Omari Hutchinson's strike flew in via a deflection off Noussair Mazraoui. And it was the newly-promoted side who looked likelier to get a winner in the second half. Here is how SunSport's Charlie Wyett saw the performances of the Man Utd players... ANDRE ONANA - 7/10 United’s best player. Two key stops to deny Liam Delap but no chance for the deflected Omari Hutchinson goal. Then delivered an 87th minute save to keep out an effort from Conor Chaplin. NOUSSAIR MAZRAOUI - 5 Slotted in on the right of the three-man defence but unfortunate with the deflection for the goal. MATTHIJS DE LIGT - 5 Has been suspect this season and will probably be better suited to a back three although still given a tough time by Delap. JONNY EVANS - 5 The 36-year-old was targeted by Ipswich for his lack of pace and no surprise he was replaced. AMAD DIALLO - 6 Did incredibly well to bomb past Jens Cajuste and deliver the cross for Rashford’s early goal but offered little else. CHRISTIAN ERIKSEN - 5 Some nice touches going forward but too lightweight in this position in front of the back three. CASEMIRO - 4 Lucky to start ahead of Manuel Ugarte and was really poor. Struggled throughout before being subbed and could maybe have got a block to the Hutchinson shot. DIOGO DALOT - 5 Not suited to left wing-back although stayed there when Luke Shaw arrived because the English international replaced Evans in the back three. BRUNO FERNANDES - 5 Some of his link-up play was fine but United need a captain who can inspire this team and Fernandes is not the man. Sent a free-kick flashing past the post with 12 minutes left. ALEJANDRO GARNACHO - 5 Twice called over by Ruben Amorim in the first half for instructions. Denied by a decent save from Aro Muric 50 seconds into the second half. MARCUS RASHFORD - 6 Criticised for his basketball trip to New York so to score after 80 seconds was two fingers up at his critics - but did not offer much after that. Subs Ugarte (for Casemiro 56 mins) - 6 Shaw (for Evans 56 mins) - 6 Hojlund (for Rashford 67 mins) - 5 Zirkzee ( for Eriksen 67 mins) - 5 Mount (for Garnacho 87 mins) - 5UK ready for ‘all eventualities’ if Trump launches trade war, says Reynolds
