ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) — Left-hander Yusei Kikuchi and the Los Angeles Angels finalized a $63 million, three-year contract on Wednesday. The 33-year-old gets $21 million annually, which raises his Major League Baseball earnings to $142 million over nine seasons. An All-Star with Seattle in 2021, Kikuchi was 9-10 with a 4.05 ERA in 32 starts this year for Toronto and Houston, which acquired him on July 30 for 23-year-old right-hander Jake Bloss, rookie outfielder Joey Loperfido and minor league first baseman Will Wagner. Kikuchi was 5-1 with a 2.70 ERA in 10 starts with the Astros, striking out 76 and walking 14 in 60 innings. His four-seam fastball averaged 95.5 mph this year, the highest of his big league career. He is 41-47 with a 4.57 ERA in six seasons with Seattle (2019-21), Toronto (2022-24) and Houston. Kikuchi signed with the Mariners ahead of the 2019 season when Seattle agreed to a contract that paid him $43 million over three years. The Mariners also paid a $10,275,000 posting fee to the Pacific League’s Seibu Lions. He signed with Toronto in March 2022 , agreeing to a $36 million, three-year contract. The Angels have been the most aggressive team in baseball so far this offseason. Kikuchi joins a projected rotation that includes left-handers Tyler Anderson and Reid Detmers and right-handers José Soriano and Kyle Hendricks, who left the Chicago Cubs as a free agent and agreed to a $2.5 million, one-year contract . Right-hander Griffin Canning was traded to the Atlanta Braves for outfielder and designated hitter Jorge Soler on Oct. 31. Los Angeles also reached a $12 million, two-year contract with catcher Travis d’Arnaud . The Angels went a franchise-worst 63-99, their ninth straight losing season and first since losing Shohei Ohtani in free agency to the Dodgers. They have not reached the playoffs since 2014.

Arsenal extended its revival with a ruthless 5-1 rout of Sporting Lisbon to bolster its bid to reach the UEFA Champions League 2024-25 last 16 on Wednesday. Mikel Arteta’s side ended a three-match winless run in all competitions by beating Nottingham Forest 3-0 in the Premier League last weekend. And the Gunners built on that success with an even more dynamic display at the Jose Alvalade stadium. Gabriel Martinelli gave Arsenal an early lead and Kai Havertz increased its advantage before Gabriel Magalhaes struck just before half-time. Goncalo Inacio got one back for Sporting, but Bukayo Saka’s penalty underlined the gulf in class between the teams. Leandro Trossard netted late on to give Arsenal five away goals in a Champions League game for the first time since 2008. Arsenal’s third win in five Champions League matches this season lifted it into seventh place, with the top eight teams in the revamped tournament earning automatic qualification for the last 16. Sporting’s first defeat in Europe’s elite club competition this season leaves it below Arsenal on goal difference. Arsenal is nine points behind Premier League leader Liverpool after its dip, but this swaggering effort suggested it is finally back in the groove. Arteta had challenged Arsenal to make a statement against Sporting and it responded in emphatic fashion. The north Londoners’ first away win in the Champions League in six attempts was a welcome tonic after a 1-0 loss at Inter Milan in its last European fixture. Arsenal’s impressive performance was all the more notable as Sporting had crushed Manchester City 4-1 in its final Champions League game under Ruben Amorim, who has since taken charge of Manchester United.

It took just seven minutes for Martinelli to put Arsenal ahead. Jurrien Timber’s low cross was perfectly weighted and the Brazilian slid in to apply the finish inside the six-yard box. In stark contrast to City’s capitulation at Sporting earlier in November, Arteta’s men were in complete command. Arsenal picked the Sporting defence apart again in the 22nd minute as Thomas Partey’s incisive pass picked out Saka’s run beyond the host’s creaky offside trap. Saka guided a pin-point pass into the Sporting area and Havertz timed his run immaculately to slot home from close range. Sporting finally forced a save from David Raya when 17-year-old Geovany Quenda unleashed a fierce strike that the Arsenal keeper tipped over. But Gabriel bagged his first Champions League goal on the stroke of half-time. Arsenal’s set-piece prowess was on show as the Brazilian defender rose highest to power his header past Franco Israel from Declan Rice’s in-swinging corner. Gabriel marked the goal with a cheeky celebration as he mimicked the eye-covering gesture used by Sporting striker Viktor Gyokeres when he scores. That inflammatory gesture briefly woke Sporting from its slumber and Inacio reduced the deficit two minutes after half-time. Arsenal’s Riccardo Calafiori went to sleep at a corner and Inacio took advantage to volley past Raya from close range. Sporting needed another goal quickly to put Arsenal under genuine pressure, but instead, it was the visitor who struck again in the 65th minute. Ousmane Diomande’s lunge tripped Martin Odegaard in the area and Saka drilled his penalty into the corner of the net. Trossard put the seal on Arsenal’s demolition job in the 82nd minute, nodding home after Israel spilled Mikel Merino’s shot.

In commemoration of World Toilet Day 2024, the brand launched a nationwide activation aimed at addressing hygiene challenges in public spaces. The impactful initiative spanned multiple states, including Lagos, Ibadan, Rivers State, Anambra, Enugu, Akwa Ibom, Imo, Kano, Kaduna, Abuja, Benin City, and Edo State. In markets and motor parks within these regions, Hypo provided access to clean and germ-free toilets by renovating and disinfecting facilities, ensuring they were free for everyone throughout the day. Additionally, the brand distributed hygiene kits to users, empowering over 10,000 households to maintain better hygiene practices. Speaking on the initiative, assistant brand manager at Hypo Homecare, Olamide Olopade, in a press statement,made available to LEADERSHIP, highlighted its significance: “At Hypo, we recognize the importance of clean and accessible toilets in improving public health. This World Toilet Day, we reaffirmed our mission to fight against poor sanitation by providing solutions where they are needed the most—in our public spaces. Beyond offering effective products, we see it as our duty to drive positive change through meaningful Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) activities, such as our longstanding toilet rescue program, where we renovate dilapidated toilets nationwide.” Adding to this, assistant brand manager for Hypo Toilet Cleaner, Emmanuel Inyang, emphasised that: “World Toilet Day is not just about raising awareness—it’s about collective actions in the fight against open defecation and the use of unsafe toilets by providing free access to clean toilets and empowering the public with proper awareness of the harmful effects of poor sanitation practices.” The activations underscored Hypo’s vision to promote good hygiene practices and create lasting impacts in communities. Influencers and brand ambassadors played key roles in the campaign, leading hygiene awareness sessions that educated the public on the health risks of poor toilet hygiene and the importance of adopting proper sanitation habits. By transforming public toilets into germ-free, clean spaces, Hypo is actively helping to curb the spread of diseases caused by unsafe sanitation practices. These efforts align with the brand’s overarching mission to make cleanliness accessible and achievable for every Nigerian household. As Nigeria continues its journey toward improved sanitation, Hypo Toilet Cleaner remains a trusted partner in the fight against germs, offering products designed to keep toilets cleaner, fresher, and healthier for all.

LAHAINA, Hawaii — An opportunity in paradise has turned into a trip to hell for Dan Hurley's UConn Huskies. The No. 2 team in the country is officially out of sorts after losing two games in two days to unranked opponents. Colorado came back from an 11-point deficit to beat the two-time champs 73-72 in the opening game of the consolation bracket Tuesday in the Maui Invitational. A tough right-handed runner by Andrej Jakimovski with 8.5 remaining gave the Buffs the lead; Jakimovski didn't have to worry about a big man because, for the second straight day, UConn had its top two bigs, Samson Johnson and Tarris Reed Jr. , foul out. Andrej called game. 📺ESPN2 pic.twitter.com/Dnhf5hAjgz Hassan Diarra 's 3-point attempt fell awry and Colorado pulled off the upset. The Buffs came into the day ranked No. 82 at KenPom.com. For UConn, the defeat marks the first time Dan Hurley's team has taken on back-to-back losses since Jan. 18, 2023. UConn, which had not lost consecutive games since January 2023, will try to avoid going 0-3 in the Maui Invitational when it plays in the seventh-place game, the last tipoff on Wednesday night against the loser of Tuesday's Iowa State-Dayton game. This post will be updatedThe move announced Tuesday means that Pace must miss at least the Vikings next four games. The Vikings also activated outside linebacker Gabriel Murphy from injured reserve and signed linebacker Jamin Davis off the Green Bay Packers practice squad. Pace, 23, had started each of the Vikings nine games this season. The 2023 undrafted free agent from Cincinnati had 56 tackles — including six for loss — and three sacks. Murphy, 24, signed with the Vikings as an undrafted free agent this spring. He was placed on injured reserve Aug. 27. Davis had joined the Packers practice squad Oct. 29 after getting released by the Washington Commanders a week earlier. Washington selected him out of Kentucky with the 19th overall pick in the 2021 draft. The 25-year-old Davis has 282 tackles, seven sacks, one interception, two forced fumble recoveries and two forced fumbles in his NFL career. He led the Commanders with a career-high 104 tackles in 2022. The Vikings (9-2) host the Arizona Cardinals (6-5) on Sunday. AP NFL: https://apnews.com/hub/NFL

AUTODESK, INC. ANNOUNCES FISCAL 2025 THIRD QUARTER RESULTSSmart Weapons Market Preparing for the Unforeseen Future in 2030: SWOT and Feasibility AnalysisJonah Goldberg Among elites across the ideological spectrum, there's one point of unifying agreement: Americans are bitterly divided. What if that's wrong? What if elites are the ones who are bitterly divided while most Americans are fairly unified? History rarely lines up perfectly with the calendar (the "sixties" didn't really start until the decade was almost over). But politically, the 21st century neatly began in 2000, when the election ended in a tie and the color coding of electoral maps became enshrined as a kind of permanent tribal color war of "red vs. blue." Elite understanding of politics has been stuck in this framework ever since. Politicians and voters have leaned into this alleged political reality, making it seem all the more real in the process. I loathe the phrase "perception is reality," but in politics it has the reifying power of self-fulfilling prophecy. Like rival noble families in medieval Europe, elites have been vying for power and dominance on the arrogant assumption that their subjects share their concern for who rules rather than what the rulers can deliver. Political cartoonists from across country draw up something special for the holiday In 2018, the group More in Common published a massive report on the "hidden tribes" of American politics. The wealthiest and whitest groups were "devoted conservatives" (6%) and "progressive activists" (8%). These tribes dominate the media, the parties and higher education, and they dictate the competing narratives of red vs. blue, particularly on cable news and social media. Meanwhile, the overwhelming majority of Americans resided in, or were adjacent to, the "exhausted majority." These people, however, "have no narrative," as David Brooks wrote at the time. "They have no coherent philosophic worldview to organize their thinking and compel action." Lacking a narrative might seem like a very postmodern problem, but in a postmodern elite culture, postmodern problems are real problems. It's worth noting that red vs. blue America didn't emerge ex nihilo. The 1990s were a time when the economy and government seemed to be working, at home and abroad. As a result, elites leaned into the narcissism of small differences to gain political and cultural advantage. They remain obsessed with competing, often apocalyptic, narratives. That leaves out most Americans. The gladiatorial combatants of cable news, editorial pages and academia, and their superfan spectators, can afford these fights. Members of the exhausted majority are more interested in mere competence. I think that's the hidden unity elites are missing. This is why we keep throwing incumbent parties out of power: They get elected promising competence but get derailed -- or seduced -- by fan service to, or trolling of, the elites who dominate the national conversation. There's a difference between competence and expertise. One of the most profound political changes in recent years has been the separation of notions of credentialed expertise from real-world competence. This isn't a new theme in American life, but the pandemic and the lurch toward identity politics amplified distrust of experts in unprecedented ways. This is a particular problem for the left because it is far more invested in credentialism than the right. Indeed, some progressives are suddenly realizing they invested too much in the authority of experts and too little in the ability of experts to provide what people want from government, such as affordable housing, decent education and low crime. The New York Times' Ezra Klein says he's tired of defending the authority of government institutions. Rather, "I want them to work." One of the reasons progressives find Trump so offensive is his absolute inability to speak the language of expertise -- which is full of coded elite shibboleths. But Trump veritably shouts the language of competence. I don't mean he is actually competent at governing. But he is effectively blunt about calling leaders, experts and elites -- of both parties -- stupid, ineffective, weak and incompetent. He lost in 2020 because voters didn't believe he was actually good at governing. He won in 2024 because the exhausted majority concluded the Biden administration was bad at it. Nostalgia for the low-inflation pre-pandemic economy was enough to convince voters that Trumpian drama is the tolerable price to pay for a good economy. About 3 out of 4 Americans who experienced "severe hardship" because of inflation voted for Trump. The genius of Trump's most effective ad -- "Kamala is for they/them, President Trump is for you" -- was that it was simultaneously culture-war red meat and an argument that Harris was more concerned about boutique elite concerns than everyday ones. If Trump can actually deliver competent government, he could make the Republican Party the majority party for a generation. For myriad reasons, that's an if so big it's visible from space. But the opportunity is there -- and has been there all along. Goldberg is editor-in-chief of The Dispatch: thedispatch.com .
