Orlando Magic forward Franz Wagner is out indefinitely after suffering a torn right oblique, the team announced Saturday. He is the second star forward the Magic have lost to a torn oblique this season. Paolo Banchero has been out with the same injury since Oct. 30. Wagner, whose injury occurred during Friday's 102-94 loss to the host Philadelphia 76ers, will be reevaluated in four weeks and "his return to play will depend on how he responds to treatment," the team said Saturday. Wagner is averaging a career-high 24.4 points this season, and his scoring average has gone up every season since Orlando picked him eighth overall in the 2021 NBA Draft out of Michigan. After averaging 15.2 as a rookie, he increased it to 18.6 in 2022-23 and then 19.7 last season to help Orlando win 47 games. Wagner goes down in the middle of an especially hot streak during his All-Star worthy season, having scored 30 or more in the past three games. He's also averaging 5.7 assists and 5.6 rebounds, helping Orlando go 16-9 for third place in the East. --Field Level Media

A group of local tech entrepreneurs came forward to help, setting into motion a stretch of fundraising efforts that not only saved the club from imminent demise, but also helped make it more viable than ever. “I’m very happy,” Sivyer said of how things worked out. “For the first time in years, I can sleep at night. I don’t stress about bills. We were always just above or just below the line for 37 years, and I’d have to throw money in and get it back the next year. Now we’re running with a balance in the bank and making a bit of profit.” Kevin Ford, CEO of Calian Group Ltd., was the first tech exec to reach out to Sivyer after the Citizen’s 2021 article. A musician who’s also the father of musicians, Ford had fond memories of taking his sons to the Rainbow’s Sunday jam session and didn’t want it to close. Ford recruited some music-loving Ottawa business colleagues, including MDS Aero CEO John Jastremski, Kingsford Consulting President Andrew Penny and Kinaxis CEO John Sicard, forming an advisory group they called the Rainbow Bistro Business Amplifers .

Article content For starters, each executive contributed $5,000 in the name of corporate sponsorship and saw their company names emblazoned on a banner over the stage. That raised $55,000 and got the club through the winter of 2021-22, Sivyer said. Then they encouraged him to apply for a FACTOR grant, available at the time to help live-music businesses. That added $60,000 to the business account. A provincial grant bumped it up by $30,000, while a crowd-funding campaign raised another $41,000 that went to support the booking of bands. During one pandemic closure, the advisors recommended investing in long-delayed renovations, an expense that cost about $80,000, and struck a deal with music equipment supplier Long and McQuade to provide top-notch sound and light gear on a no-charge, multi-year lease. “We survived through the generosity of Ottawa, basically,” Sivyer said. “We were able to do the renovations, get the sound equipment, pay the bands and reopen in March of 2022 with money in the bank.” Today, the Rainbow Amplifiers’ meetings have dwindled to quarterly sessions, but Sivyer says the club is doing well partly because they’re no longer trying to book shows every night of the week.

Article content “The business is viable now,” he said. “We’re making a small profit every year, mainly because we don’t do 12 shows a week anymore. After COVID, we were smarter and said we can’t do that again. Now we’re booking a lot less, about two to five shows a week, so that cuts down all of our costs.” He’s also proud of his daughter Stacy’s work in programming. The Rainbow had long been known as Ottawa’s home of the blues, but Danny wanted to reach a younger clientele and asked Stacy to take over the bookings a decade ago. She also manages (and often tends) the bar. “Stacy is doing a really good job with the young local music scene,” he said. “The young bands all support each other. If she books three of them, then three of the others come out and support. They follow each other around the city. It’s always a pretty good crowd and quite often a sold-out crowd.” For proof they’re on the right track, Sivyer pointed to the two Ottawa Music Industry Coalition awards at the bar. The Rainbow was named best music venue in 2023, while Stacy earned the live-music curator-of-the-year award this year. “That means, even though we’re 40 years old, the granddaddy of bars, we’re still relevant with the young kids,” he said. lsaxberg@postmedia.com Our website is your destination for up-to-the-minute news, so make sure to bookmark our homepage and sign up for our newsletters so we can keep you informed.

Matein Khalid I wrote a column on Vornado (VNO) as a buy at 18 in Sep’22 as it was slammed by the pandemic, its debt load and the Fed’s draconian rate hikes. So VNO’s price ascribed a $450 a square foot value to its prime Manhattan office/Fifth Ave retail portfolio even though its occupancy rate was 91% as the pandemic raged. To help my Dubai friends grasp that deep value discount in VNO, I wrote a post titled buying Manhattan at Karama prices at $18. After initially rising to $26 by February 2023, VNO was slammed by the depositor run and Fed bailout in Silicon Valley Bank and First Republic on investor angst on their bond portfolio after Powell raised the Fed funds rate from 0.5%-5.5%. A regional banking crisis could have escalated into systemic contagion, a no-no for Uncle Sam since regional banks owned 70% of all US CRE loans. So a Fed bailout of SVB and First Republic was inevitable while Powell’s tight money pivot led to a plunge in both inflation and interest rates by summer 2024. VNO rose from a cycle low of 14 to almost 44 now. Moral of the story, making big money in real estate means getting both the brick and mortar and interest rate cycle right. My friends who bought VNO at 18 have made an almost 150% profit on their capital in 2 years with near zero transaction cost. Sure beats flipping houses and praying for the greater fool theory to work in your favour in a notoriously illiquid speculative asset class. The REIT Index has underperformed the S&P 500 goosed by Mag-7. However, despite the goldilocks economy, there is valuation froth in the SPX at 23X. While higher transaction volumes, lower inflation and US Treasury bond yields tell me that it is now the time to rotate into real estate on the NYSE. Mr. Market is whispering to me that the pandemic/banking/tight money/remote work/telecommuting blues for CRE is now over and it is time to go deal hunting for discounted brick and mortar property on Wall Street. I love fundamentalists property analysts though not the beirdo-weirdos who operated from caves in Afghanistan. 67 I believe owning the right REITs will be a money making strategy in the coming US real estate cycles, even if my VNO trade idea was a roller coaster in the first half of 2023. I have made no secret about my fascination with industrial and data center REITs, segments that have rewarded patient investors with 10-20X multiples of their capital in the past two decades. In 2024, the first Baby Boomer turned 79 and the biggest/richest generation in American history with 74 million members are now prime candidates for senior housing demand. Yet there is a supply squeeze in this segment due to Uncle Jay’s tight money and Uncle Joe’s long permit/construction lead times. Data center REITs are priced to perfection and Prologis is the only industrial I like at the right price. New York office is still a winner but I will not touch San Fran with a barge pole, go COLD turkey! Also published on Medium .

I am so excited to be an aunt, and love the baby. So does my mom, however she has said on multiple occasions: I love the baby more than you two (my kids). I think the first time she was trying to be funny. It still did sting, though. She keeps saying it every time there is a get together with the baby. I can’t say anything because when I’ve said anything before I’ve been told that I am: “self-centered and make everything about myself” by my dad. My mom will say, “Why is everyone on my butt tonight?” I don’t want to cause any problems, but my brother and I are tired of this backhanded compliment, and I honestly don’t know how to deal with it. — Second Place Dear Second Place: The way your father spoke to you is very harsh, particularly given the reasonable request to not be triangulated with the baby. It suggests that there’s a pattern of unkind statements being lobbed in your direction, so this “joke” strikes a deeper wound. If that’s true, you’ll want to think about the parts of your dynamic with your parents that don’t work for you and talk about them separately. You may even want to work on this with a therapist beforehand, so you’re able to communicate clearly and not get sidetracked by debate over the baby comment. It will likely be more effective for your brother to tell your mom “I don’t like when you talk about my child that way,” than it is for you to protest. But, again, this seems to be rooted in a toxic family dynamic. There’s enough love to go around. If they can’t express that without belittling you, it’s wise to set a boundary with them about the way they communicate. Dear Eric: Our son received a seven-figure insurance settlement due to our diligence in getting him the best medical care our insurance would afford and a great lawyer. He is getting married at age 41. He expected us to pay for the flights for the happy couple, rent a car for them and “give them a s-load of gas cards so they can explore the southwest and California.” We’ve raised his daughter since she was 3 months old. She’s almost 11 now and just moved in with him. He didn’t provide a penny for the time she was with us. Her mother is frequently out of the picture. We haven’t heard from our son in six months since we told him we couldn’t afford to pay for the wedding, plane tickets and gas cards. Our granddaughter texted me two weeks ago asking if I’d bring her food because her dad was out of town. We hadn’t seen her in five months. We worry about her constantly. We worry about our son with a brain injury and temper issues. Do you have any advice? — Heartbroken Grandparents Dear Grandparents: The most pressing issue here is the welfare of your granddaughter. For the last 11 years, you had physical custody of her without parental support. If that arrangement was made through the Family Court system, it may be helpful to talk to your family lawyer or social worker about ways that you can help your granddaughter. If he’ll take the call, talk to your son about your concerns. That may be a difficult conversation, but being direct could prompt him to change or to make use of resources available to him.

NAPLES, Fla. -- Narin An handled the windy conditions with a hot putter on Thursday, making four straight birdies around the turn and finishing with an 8-under 64 for a one-shot lead in the CME Group Tour Championship. At stake for the 60-player field is a $4 million prize to the winner, the largest single-day payoff in women's golf. Nelly Korda already has won more than that during her sterling season of seven wins. Now she faces an eight-shot deficit over the next three days at Tiburon Golf Club if she wants to end her year in fitting fashion. Korda, coming off a victory last week, couldn't make amends for her three bogeys and had to settle for an even-par 72. She has come from behind in four of her victories, and still has 54 holes ahead of her. But it has made the task that much tougher. Everything felt easy for An, a 28-year-old from South Korea who has never won on the LPGA and has never cracked the top 10 in any of the 16 majors she has played. “Today my putt really good,” An said. “The speed was good and the shape was good. I just try to focus a little bit more.” She had a one-shot lead over Angel Yin, who shot 30 on the back nine, including an eagle on the par-5 17th hole that most players can easily reach in two. Former U.S. Women's Open champion Allisen Corpuz and Marina Alex were at 66, with Lydia Ko leading the group at 67. Despite the wind so typical along the Gulf Coast of Florida, 27 players — nearly half the field — shot in the 60s. “It's a good head start for the big ol' prize we get at the end of the week,” Yin said. Whoever wins this week is assured of breaking the 17-year-old LPGA record for most money earned in season. The record was set by Lorena Ochoa in 2007 at $4,364,994, back when the total prize money was about half of what it is now. Ochoa earned $1 million for winning the Tour Championship in 2007. The opening round followed a big night of awards for the LPGA Tour, where Korda officially picked up her first award as player of the year, which she clinched earlier this month . Ko was recognized for her big year, highlighted by an Olympic gold medal that put her into the LPGA Hall of Fame. She regained plenty of focus for the opening round on a course where she won just two years ago. “The course isn't easy,” Ko said. “I set a goal of shooting 3 under today, and somebody shot 8 under. I was like, ‘OK, maybe I need to make a few more birdies.’ It's a course that can get away from you as much as you can shoot some low scores, so I’m just trying to stick to my game plan and go from there.” Also in the group at 67 was Albane Valenzuela of Switzerland, already celebrating a big year with her debut in the Solheim Cup and her first appearance in the Tour Championship. She made a late run at her first LPGA title last week at Pelican Golf Club, and kept up her form. And she can see the finish line, which is appealing. “I everyone is looking at that $4 million price tag,” Valenzuela said. “I try not to look too much at the result. I feel like in the past I’ve always been stuck on results, and ultimately all I can do is control my own round, my own energy, my own commitment. “It's the last week of the year. It’s kind of the bonus week. No matter what, everyone is having a paycheck.” ___ AP golf: https://apnews.com/hub/golfLaw Office of Patrick R. McKamey Announces New Partner, Former Prosecutor Craig WilliamsBrock Purdy will miss Sunday's game for the 49ers with a shoulder injuryNikola Jokic continues to bloat the stat sheet, now becoming proficient in the quadruple-double: scoring, rebounding, passing and yelling. What’s going on with the NBA’s best player? I got pushback when for the roster construction in early November and again last week when . One thing is clear: It is becoming increasingly impossible to ignore Jokic’s frustration with his teammates, with the losses, with the wild inconsistency of the 16-12 start. Jokic showed his emotions on multiple occasions during a . The NBA attempted to straight-arm the NFL for relevance with terrific early games, including a Steph Curry-LeBron James classic. Then the Nuggets decided to disappear defensively midway through the fourth quarter of their nightcap. What could have been a fourth straight win instead became another reason to question the makeup of this team after the Suns pulled away with an 11-0 run. Three themes continue to linger 35% of the way through this season: a simmering Jokic, a disappointing Jamal Murray and an unserious bench. First, there is Jokic. He is playing the best basketball of his career, adding DNA accuracy from the 3-point line to his repertoire. He ranks second in points (30.7), and third in rebounds (12.4) and assists (9.4). He is not immune to criticism, as he had defensive issues and lapses through the first two months. But he is not the problem. It is everything around him. And he has verbalized this more than at any other point in his career. Even if you hit the eggnog too hard Wednesday, how could you miss the following sequence? At 8:40 left in the third quarter, Jokic threw both arms in the air in exasperation after a loose ball turned into a Bradley Beal 3-pointer. Soon after, Michael Porter Jr. made a poor kickout pass to Jokic that Beal tipped away. As Jokic began to chase Beal down the court for an inevitable layup, he stretched his arms out and screamed in disgust. Put it this way: He did not appear upset with himself. It is becoming part of a pattern, no longer an isolated incident. Everyone from coach Michael Malone to general manager Calvin Booth and president Josh Kroenke better take notice. The greatest player in the world is losing his patience. Any other modern NBA superstar would have gotten his coach fired or a teammate cut by now. Jokic has forever been a selfless teammate, but this season is testing his limits. Remember, he raised eyebrows on Dec. 3 when asked what he has learned about his team: “That we can surprise in a good way, bad way, everybody. Literally everybody.” Five days later, he after . “In my country, where I’m coming from, after this kind of stretch, you’re gonna get a paycheck that is a little bit less than you are worth,” Jokic said. “Maybe that’s what we need to do.” Are you listening coach, Booth, boss? What is it going to take before changes are made? With Aaron Gordon (calf) facing another absence, it is hard to see things getting easier as the schedule becomes tougher with 21 games in 37 days. How much more can Jokic take before spewing lava? That’s a question to be answered sooner rather than later, it appears. What’s wrong with Murray? That could take longer — everyone on his side continues to preach how he is a slow starter — and the Nuggets no longer have the luxury of time. When Denver decided not to incur luxury tax penalties and trust younger players, it came with an understanding: Murray has to play big. Not just in the playoffs, but every game. Even with improvement lately, the signs remain ominous. Murray is logging a career high in minutes (36.4), while his field goal attempts (15.8) and 3-point percentage (.349) rank their lowest since 2019-20. Wednesday’s loss symbolized his season. He made a couple of breathtaking baskets, but lacked assertiveness — he took 10 shots in 39 minutes, and only two 3s — and is a defensive liability. Maybe the lack of nightly explosiveness traces to injuries — his foot, his ankle — and if that’s the case, I will be the first to acknowledge this context. But right now, he’s not good enough for his max contract. And if this is who he is, the Nuggets have invested $207 million in someone closer to the Bulls’ Coby White than an All-Star. You can tiptoe around it and gloss over the stats if it makes you feel better. But let’s not pretend this is not a thing and won’t remain so until Murray shows offensive aggressiveness and consistency. As for the bench, it is a problem. Peyton Watson and Julian Strawther have yet to turn the corner. And the best reserve is making a case for a promotion. Russell Westbrook is better than Christian Braun right now, as the former Kansas star has fallen into a shooting slump, going 3 for 22 from behind the arc over his last 10 games. So, sure, you can wait to see what kind of season this will be, and cross your fingers leading up to the Feb. 6 trade deadline. But as you hold your breath, ask yourself, how much longer will Jokic hold back?
