3d poker game

3d poker game Mr Trump made the announcement in a Truth Social post, calling Charles Kushner “a tremendous business leader, philanthropist, & dealmaker”. Mr Kushner is the founder of Kushner Companies, a real estate firm. Jared Kushner is a former senior Trump adviser who is married to Trump’s eldest daughter, Ivanka. The elder Mr Kushner was pardoned by Trump in December 2020 after pleading guilty years earlier to tax evasion and making illegal campaign donations. Prosecutors alleged that after Charles Kushner discovered his brother-in-law was co-operating with federal authorities in an investigation, he hatched a scheme for revenge and intimidation. Mr Kushner hired a prostitute to lure his brother-in-law, then arranged to have the encounter in a New Jersey motel room recorded with a hidden camera and the recording sent to his own sister, the man’s wife, prosecutors said. Mr Kushner eventually pleaded guilty to 18 counts including tax evasion and witness tampering. He was sentenced in 2005 to two years in prison – the most he could receive under a plea deal, but less than what Chris Christie, the US attorney for New Jersey at the time and later governor and Republican presidential candidate, had sought. Mr Christie has blamed Jared Kushner for his firing from Mr Trump’s transition team in 2016, and has called Charles Kushner’s offences “one of the most loathsome, disgusting crimes that I prosecuted when I was US attorney”. Mr Trump and the elder Mr Kushner knew each other from real estate circles and their children were married in 2009.PM reaffirms Pakistan’s commitment to strengthen national HIV responseNone

Halifax (Nova Scotia), Nov 23 (AP) The first woman to command Canada's military called out a US senator on Saturday for questioning the role of women in combat. Gen. Jennie Carignan responded to comments made by Idaho Republican Sen. Jim Risch, the ranking member of the US Senate Foreign Relations Committee, who was asked on Friday whether President-elect Donald Trump's nominee for defence secretary, Pete Hegseth, should retract comments that he believes men and women should not serve together in combat units. “I think it's delusional for anybody to not agree that women in combat creates certain unique situations that have to be dealt with. I think the jury's still out on how to do that," Risch said during a panel session at the Halifax International Security Forum on Friday. Carignan, Canada's chief of defense staff and the first woman to command the armed forces of any Group of 20 or Group of Seven country, took issue with those remarks during a panel session on Saturday. "If you'll allow me, I would first like maybe to respond to Senator Risch's statement yesterday about women in combat because I wouldn't want anyone to leave this forum with this idea that women are a distraction to defense and national security," Carignan said. “After 39 years of career as a combat arms officer and risking my life in many operations across the world, I can't believe that in 2024, we still have to justify the contribution of women to their defence and to their service, in their country. I wouldn't want anyone to leave this forum with this idea that this is that it is some kind of social experiment.” Carignan said women have participating in combat for hundreds of years but have never been recognised for fighting for their country. She noted the women military personnel in the room. “All the women sitting here in uniform, stepping in, and deciding to get into harm's way and fight for their country, need to be recognised for doing so," she said. “So again, this is the distraction, not the women themselves." Carignan received a standing ovation at the forum, which attracts defence and security officials from Western democracies. Hegseth has reignited a debate that many thought had been long settled: Should women be allowed to serve their country by fighting on the front lines? The former Fox News commentator made it clear, in his own book and in interviews, that he believes men and women should not serve together in combat units. If Hegseth is confirmed by the Senate, he could try to end the Pentagon's nearly decade-old practice of making all combat jobs open to women. Hegseth's remarks have generated a barrage of praise and condemnation. Carignan was promoted to the rank of general during the change-of-command ceremony this past summer, after being chosen by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's government to become Canada's first female defense chief. Carignan is no stranger to firsts. She was also the first woman to command a combat unit in the Canadian military, and her career has included deployments to Iraq, Afghanistan, Bosnia and Syria. For the last three years, she has been the chief of professional conduct and culture, a job created as a result of the sexual misconduct scandal in 2021. Her appointment this year comes as Canada continues to face criticism from NATO allies for not spending 2 per cent of its gross domestic product on defence. The Canadian government recently said that it would reach its NATO commitment by 2032. Risch said on Friday Trump would laugh at Canada's current military spending plans and said the country must do more.

It is one year since National , Act and New Zealand First formed the country’s first-ever three-party coalition Government , reaching agreements after weeks of tense discussions following the 2023 election. The Herald has interviewed the leaders of all three parties about how they think the coalition has fared so far, how they’re getting on with one another and how the dynamic could change ahead of the 2026 election. Today, we hear from National Party leader and Prime Minister Christopher Luxon . Interviews with Winston Peters and David Seymour will also be published this week. It was dubbed the coalition of fear, cuts and chaos . The spectre of a chaotic Government was first raised by a campaigning Christopher Luxon as he warned voters of a Labour-Greens-Te Pāti Māori combination during the 2023 election.LINCOLN — Nebraska clinched its first bowl game berth since 2016 with a 44-25 win Saturday over Wisconsin at Memorial Stadium. Here are three takeaways: 1. Nebraska capitalized on mistakes that have gone against it throughout losing streak How Nebraska got in this position, needing Saturday’s 44-25 win over Wisconsin to clinch bowl eligibility for the first time in eight seasons, wasn’t a singular issue. It was a culmination of struggles on offense, a worn-down defense because of those struggles, undisciplined football and some bad bounces and luck. Sometimes when a team is in a rut like the Huskers have been, anything that can go wrong seems to find a way, and reversing those fortunes is the only way out. It wasn’t just that Nebraska’s offense was more than up to the task against a Badgers team that had allowed just seven points per game in first halves this season. Or its defense did just enough against a Badgers group missing its top wideout option. But those mistakes and bounces that have gone against the Huskers over the past month — and past decade — were happening to the team across the field on the other sideline. Nebraska took a 24-10 lead at halftime because of Wisconsin’s errors as much as the Huskers’ successes, and put its stamp on the game in the second to finally get that postseason monkey off of their shoulders. The Badgers missed two field goals, one of which came after a Janiran Bonner fumble inside of Nebraska’s own 20-yard line. The Badgers settled for three, but a delay of game negated a Nathanial Vakos field goal, and he missed his next attempt. He later missed another. In both cases, Nebraska drove down the field for touchdowns. Then it was Wisconsin's late-half execution, fumbling with 11 seconds left on first down after a Jahmal Banks touchdown catch, set up by a pass interference in the end zone, which allowed the Huskers to add a John Hohl 37-yard field goal before the half. A sequence like that is spirit-killing, and it was for Wisconsin. Nebraska wasn’t and won’t apologize for it, after those types of blunders have played out time and again against the Huskers over the past eight years, preventing them from finally breaking through. On Saturday, the Huskers made those plays, found a way and took the step forward as a program that has alluded them for years. 2. There is a full buy-in from Nebraska with Dana Holgorsen’s offense If there ever wasnproof that there is buy-in from Nebraska’s offense with new offensive coordinator Dana Holgorsen, check the blocking on both of the Huskers’ first-half touchdowns. Janiran Bonner and Dante Dowdell’s blocking sprung Heinrich Haarberg into the end zone on his five-yard touchdown run to put Nebraska up 7-0 and the combination of Luke Lindenmeyer and Jahmal Banks clearing a big hole at the line of scrimmage made it easy for Dante Dowdell’s 12-yard touchdown scamper. Holgorsen had praised Nebraska’s perimeter blocking following last week’s loss at USC. It took another step against Wisconsin. That’s a sign of a group of players taking coaching and improving on their game. As a whole, Nebraska’s offense looked significantly better in Week No. 2 under Holgorsen than in Los Angeles. That’s natural progression spending more practice time with a new coach. The Huskers played with balance, rushing for 180 yards and throwing for 293. Dylan Raiola finished 28-for-38 and a touchdown. With Rahmir Johnson out again, it was Emmett Johnson and Dante Dowdell’s backfield and the duo each had big moments helping Nebraska control the line of scrimmage. Johnson, who started the game led Nebraska with 113 yards on 16 carries, adding 85 receiving yards on six catches. Dowdell added 41 rushing yards and three touchdowns on 11 carries. Raiola made his living on quick passes and intermediate throws, building off that game plan installed against USC and cashing in with his five-yard touchdown pass to Banks to put the Huskers up, 21-10. Overall, there was more confidence. There was better execution. And two games into its coaching change, the Huskers' offense appears to be playing with a new purpose and attitude. 3. Huskers defense bends, but doesn’t break behind shaky secondary You could sense the “here we go, again" groans coming from the 86,00-plus in attendance at Memorial Stadium when Wisconsin went right down the field and tied the game at seven on a four-yard touchdown pass from Braedyn Locke to Bryson Green. Though there were moments where Nebraska's defense settled in, bent and didn't break, it was largely another poor night for the backend of the Blackshirts. Nebraska’s defensive backs struggled on that first drive, and it was a group effort, with Malcolm Hartzog and Isaac Gifford having bad moments and Marques Buford being on the wrong side of the touchdown pass. Ceyair Wright later got beat for a touchdown, a 24-yard catch by Green. Locke also picked on Blye Hill, who played the majority of the game for Hartzog, on a 58-yard touchdown pass to Vinny Anthony. Wisconsin finished the game with 407 yards, more than half through the air. Locke finished 20-for-30 for 292 yards, three touchdowns and an interception. Nebraska's defensive struggles to win one-on-one matchups on the outside will continue to be an emphasis heading into next week's regular season finale at IowaAP Sports SummaryBrief at 5:33 p.m. ESTCleanSpark Reports Record-Breaking FY 2024 Results: Outpacing Halving and Difficulty

No. 25 UConn working on climbing back up poll, faces No. 15 BaylorRevenue grows 125% year over year Current hashrate surpasses 33.5 EH/s on track for 37 EH/s LAS VEGAS , Dec. 2, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- CleanSpark, Inc.

"Our performance this year reflects a sustained growth trajectory, solidifying our position as one of the top Bitcoin miners in the world, as we move into an anticipated new bull market," said CleanSpark CEO Zach Bradford .

"CleanSpark has prioritized owned infrastructure as its core foundation, putting us in the best position to optimize our portfolio of data centers to drive ROI to our shareholders as we continue to rapidly deploy additional hashrate on our path to 37 EH by year-end and 50 EH and beyond in 2025."

As we continue focusing on scale in FY 2025 and beyond, we will develop the remaining hundreds of MW in the near-term pipeline while always staying opportunistic," said Bradford. "The team produced our strongest year of financial performance to date, solidifying a track record of effective execution and keeping commitments to shareholders. This fiscal year included the fourth halving event in Bitcoin 's history, and our organizational commitment to operational excellence has allowed us to weather it more successfully than many of our industry peers," said CleanSpark CFO Gary Vecchiarelli . "Even with the halving event impacting block rewards and a significant increase in difficulty, our production outpaced both, yielding approximately 7,100 BTC thanks to our growth in hashrate and the efficiency improvements to our fleet.

Non-GAAP Measure The Company presents adjusted EBITDA, which is not a measurement of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP"). The Company's non-GAAP "Adjusted EBITDA" excludes (i) impacts of interest, taxes, and depreciation; (ii) the Company's share-based compensation expense, unrealized gains/losses on securities, and, changes in the fair value of contingent consideration with respect to previously completed acquisitions, all of which are non-cash items that the Company believes are not reflective of the Company's general business performance, and for which the accounting requires management judgment, and the resulting expenses could vary significantly in comparison to other companies; (iii) non-cash impairment losses related to long-lived assets (including goodwill); (iv) realized gains and losses on sales of equity securities, the amounts of which are directly related to the unrealized gains and losses that are also excluded; (v) legal fees related to litigation and various transactions, which fees management does not believe are reflective of the Company's ongoing operating activities; (vi) gains and losses on disposal of assets, the majority of which are related to obsolete or unrepairable machines that are no longer deployed; (vii) gains and losses related to discontinued operations that would not be applicable to the Company's future business activities; and (viii) severance expenses. The Company previously excluded non-cash impairment losses related to digital assets and realized gains and losses on sales of bitcoin from its calculation of adjusted EBITDA, but has determined such items are part of the Company's normal ongoing operations and will no longer be excluding them from its calculation of adjusted EBITDA. Management believes that providing this non-GAAP financial measure that excludes these items allows for meaningful comparisons between the Company's core business operating results and those of other companies, and provides the Company with an important tool for financial and operational decision making and for evaluating its own core business operating results over different periods of time. In addition to management's internal use of non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA, management believes that adjusted EBITDA is also useful to investors and analysts in comparing the Company's performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis. Management believes the foregoing to be the case even though some of the excluded items involve cash outlays and some of them recur on a regular basis (although management does not believe any of such items are normal operating expenses necessary to generate the Company's bitcoin related revenues). For example, the Company expects that share-based compensation expense, which is excluded from adjusted EBITDA, will continue to be a significant recurring expense over the coming years and is an important part of the compensation provided to certain employees, officers, and directors. Additionally, management does not consider any of the excluded items to be expenses necessary to generate the Company's bitcoin related revenue. The Company's adjusted EBITDA measure may not be directly comparable to similar measures provided by other companies in our industry, as other companies in the Company's industry may calculate non-GAAP financial results differently. The Company's adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to operating (loss) income or any other measure of performance derived in accordance with GAAP. Although management utilizes internally and presents adjusted EBITDA, the Company only utilizes that measure supplementally and does not consider it to be a substitute for, or superior to, the information provided by GAAP financial results. Accordingly, adjusted EBITDA is not meant to be considered in isolation of, and should be read in conjunction with, the information contained in the Company's consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP.

In a video released on social media, the star skier said there was "not really too much cause for concern at this point" and that "all scans so far are clear," but that she had a "pretty good abrasion."

On Jan. 29, 1969, as it was later confirmed, Air Force Capt. Robert Holton of Butte, Montana, made the ultimate sacrifice for his country when his F4 Phantom Fighter was shot down over Laos during the Vietnam War. Sue MacPherson, who hung out with Holton as a teenager, got a silver POW-MIA bracelet with his name on it in 1972. The military presumed him dead in 1973 but he remained missing, so MacPherson kept the bracelet on. But she did more than that. Sue MacPherson stands for a portrait on Tuesday, Nov. 12, 2024 in her home in Butte. She was living in Billings in 1972 and saw the mother of Navy pilot Rodney Knutson of Montana, a POW in Vietnam, on a TV show promoting POW-MIA awareness. “So I contacted her to see what I could do and told her I had a friend who was MIA and she put me in touch with another lady who was doing some stuff,” MacPherson said. “We opened a little office and sold POW-MIA bracelets in Billings, and we got the schools to get POW flags,” she said. “We just did a lot of awareness.” She’s done a lifetime of that now and her never-ending efforts are why she’s among this year’s class of Local Heroes in Butte. “Sue is great example of honor and commitment to our veterans and Butte,” Mary McMahon said in her nomination of MacPherson. MacPherson was at the state Capitol in Montana in 1973 when the Freedom Tree was planted in honor of Holton and other POW-MIAs from Montana. Sue MacPherson stands for a portrait on Tuesday, Nov. 12, 2024 in her home in Butte. In 2009, when MacPherson moved back to Butte, she visited the Freedom Tree and found its plaque covered in pine needles. “It was like they were forgotten so I went on a campaign,” she said. She contacted the governor’s office, got volunteer bricklayers to help, raised $2,500 that paid for a bench and a granite monument, and the American Legion of Helena donated a new plaque. It honors the 22 MIAs from Montana who were lost during the Vietnam War, including nine not listed on the original 1973 plaque, with asterisks denoting those whose remains were since found and returned home. MacPherson, then Gov. Steve Bullock and others rededicated the Freedom Tree at the upgraded site in 2015. In January 2017, remains were excavated at a crash site in Laos and later verified as those of Capt. Holton. They were returned to Butte and Holton’s brother, Bill, in July 2017. Hundreds lined streets as Holton’s casket was escorted into town by 70 motorcycle riders and 20 other vehicles, and Holton was buried at Sunset Memorial Park west of Butte the next day. MacPherson delivered the final touch when she took off her bracelet and laid it on top of the casket to be buried with her lifelong friend. MacPherson co-chaired local efforts this year to bring The Wall That Heals to Butte. The traveling replica of the Vietnam Memorial in Washington, D.C., was at Father Sheehan Park for five days this summer. During an opening ceremony, MacPherson read the names of at least 22 men who were from Butte or joined military here and were killed in Vietnam. She helped track down some of their family members so they could attend. MacPherson has a new mission now of promoting the In Memory Program, which honors those who served in Vietnam and later died. It is led by the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Fund. “I’m kind of on the move, letting people know about it, helping them make an application if they need help,” MacPherson said. “I think every Vietnam veteran should be honored, especially the way they were treated when they came home.” To this day, MacPherson said, MIAs are not forgotten. “They’re finding them every day,” she said. They’re finding soldiers from World War II, which is unbelievable to me. I’m so proud that we’re continuing the search.” Knutson, the Montana POW, survived years of captivity and is living in Montana today. MacPherson had lunch with him this summer.

Advertisement Rodgers showed his intentions by bringing in Liam Scales , Luke McCowan , Paulo Bernardo , and Adam Idah — who all scored — along with Alex Valle and James Forrest , with Auston Trusty , Greg Taylor , Reo Hatate , Arne Engels , Nicolas Kuhn and Kyogo Furuhashi rested. The Celtic boss pressured the board into adding quality as well as quantity for spells like these and now is the time when fans will find out just how well those millions were spent. If he gets the balance right they could wake up two weeks tomorrow with at least a five-point lead at the top of the Premiership, one foot in the play-offs for the knockout stages of the Champions League and the first domestic silverware of the season on the sideboard. There’s no question Celtic’s depth on the bench has taken them up a level, both at home and in Europe , this season.

Moments like these could be worth fortunes in the long term. Points like these could end up more than justifying the money sitting on the sidelines for all but 20 or 30 minutes of every game. Advertisement That’s a lesson to the club’s moneymen after too many seasons of thinking all they had to do was be better than Rangers . But Maeda believes everyone at the club should be learning all the time. He said: “As a team in the first half we didn’t perform well and the fans got frustrated, so it was a difficult time, but then we got the goal and the point and we all felt better. “Champions League games are the most difficult and we always learn lessons from them.

And one point in any Champions League game is a good point. “We just have to focus on the next one now and take on board what happened. We always want to say that each game has been a good learning experience for us. “As for the goal, every one I score is important, but this was such a big game that it felt really good.” Advertisement Maeda got right behind Cameron Carter-Vickers , whose bizarre own goal had plunged Parkhead into stunned silence. Keeper Kasper Schmeichel quickly galvanised the team by calling an impromptu huddle before the game restarted and Maeda says that proves how together they are. He said: “Cameron has been a leader for this team and he will keep being so. “What happened was not only his fault, it was a team thing and we all take part of the responsibility.
