In the end, the most embarrassing highest-paid athlete in Beijing's history may have lost his luster on the field, but his legacy as a cautionary tale and a symbol of perseverance and determination will continue to resonate with fans and athletes alike for years to come. His journey, though fraught with hardship and disappointment, serves as a poignant reminder that in the game of sports, as in life, the only constant is change, and true greatness is measured not by one's successes, but by how one responds to adversity and challenges along the way.Women with stronger grip after going through menopause are 'less likely to get diabetes', study finds By LUKE CHAFER Published: 22:57, 7 December 2024 | Updated: 22:59, 7 December 2024 e-mail View comments A simple test of grip strength could be able to predict whether women will develop diabetes after going through the menopause . Korean researchers found an association after analysing data collected from more than 4,000 postmenopausal women aged 45 to 65. The five-year study found the weaker a woman's grip - which is used as a recognised measure of muscle strength - the more likely they were to develop type 2 diabetes. This correlation was even more extreme in women who had been postmenopausal for more than ten years. Type 2 diabetes occurs when the body fails to produce enough insulin - a hormone that helps cells absorb sugar from the bloodstream to transform into energy. It can lead to blindness, foot amputation and heart disease. Low muscle strength is also linked to insulin resistance and poor glucose regulation - both diabetes precursors. 'The results of this study showed that postmenopausal women with high muscle strength were less likely to have diabetes,' says Dr Stephanie Faubion, medical director for The Menopause Society. 'It highlights the known benefits of maintaining muscle mass - a critical marker for prediction of health status.'

Nearly one in three people aged over 65 years have diabetes - with more than two million women suffering from the condition in the UK. Declining oestrogen levels during menopause can contribute to insulin resistance, increased fat distribution around the abdomen and a decrease in lean mass - leaving postmenopausal women at an increased risk of developing diabetes.

At the heart of algorithmic profiteering is the insatiable drive for businesses to increase their bottom line at any cost. By leveraging algorithms to optimize pricing strategies, target specific consumer demographics, and automate decision-making processes, companies can gain a competitive edge in the marketplace. However, this relentless pursuit of profit often comes at the expense of ethical considerations, human values, and societal well-being.
Georgia loses QB Carson Beck (arm) during SEC title gameWill Riley scored a game-high 19 points off the bench as No. 25 Illinois shrugged off a slow start to earn an 87-40 nonconference victory over Maryland Eastern Shore on Saturday afternoon in Champaign, Ill. Morez Johnson Jr. recorded his first double-double with 10 points and 13 rebounds, Kylan Boswell posted 13 points and Tomislav Ivisic contributed 11 for Illinois (4-1). Coming off a 100-87 loss to No. 8 Alabama on Wednesday, the Illini led by as much as 52 despite hitting just 10-of-40 3-point attempts. Jalen Ware paced Maryland Eastern Shore (2-6) with 10 points before fouling out. Ketron "KC" Shaw, who entered Saturday in the top 20 of Division I scorers at 22.3 points per game, went scoreless in the first half and finished with seven points on 2-of-11 shooting. The Hawks canned just 22.1 percent of their shots from the floor. Illinois broke out to a 6-0 lead in the first 2:06, then missed its next six shots. That gave the Hawks time to pull into an 8-8 tie on Evan Johnson's 17-foot pullup at the 12:21 mark. That marked Maryland Eastern Shore's last points for more than seven minutes as the Illini reeled off 17 straight points to remove any suspense. Johnson opened the spree with a basket and two free throws, Ben Humrichous swished a 3-pointer and Tre White sank a layup before Kasparas Jakucionis fed Ivisic for a 3-pointer and an alley-oop layup. Jakucionis set up Johnson for a free throw, then drove for an unchallenged layup to make it 25-8 with 5:15 left in the first. Evan Johnson snapped the visitors' dry spell with a driving layup at the 4:56 mark, but Illinois went on to establish a 35-15 halftime lead on the stretch of 11 offensive rebounds that turned into 12 second-chance points and 13 points off UMES' 10 turnovers. Maryland Eastern Shore needed nearly four minutes to get its first points in the second half as Illinois pushed its lead to 42-15. The Illini margin ballooned all the way to 70-24 on Boswell's driving layup with 8:11 to go. --Field Level Media
City at least avoided a sixth consecutive defeat but the manner in which they blew a commanding advantage will do little to settle nerves in and around the club ahead of Sunday’s trip to Premier League leaders Liverpool. City appeared in total control after a brace from Erling Haaland and another from Ilkay Gundogan had them three up seven minutes into the second half, but after Anis Hadj Moussa got one back in the 75th minute, City imploded. “It is what it is, difficult to swallow right now,” Guardiola said. “The game was good, we played well, we scored three and could have scored more. We do everything and then we give away, especially the first one, and after we are not stable enough to do it. “It’s not about no run or no commitment, but football you have to be [switched on] in certain moments to do it.” Santiago Gimenez got Feyenoord’s second in the 82nd minute and David Hancko got a dramatic equaliser in the 89th, making City the first team in Champions League history to have led 3-0 in the 75th minute of a match and fail to win. Some City fans, who suffered through Saturday’s 4-0 humiliation at home to Tottenham, made their frustrations known at the final whistle. “The last game against Tottenham, 0-4, the supporters were there, applause,” he said. “They are disappointed of course and we understand it. “People come here not to remember success of the past, they come here to see the team win and perform well. I am not the one when the situation is bad or good [to say] what they have to do. “These supporters, when we go away, our fans are amazing, travelling. There is nothing to do and they are right to express what they feel.” Guardiola’s own frustrations were apparent given the number of scratches visible on his head after the match. The Catalan had arrived at the ground with a cut on his nose, which he said he had caused himself with a long fingernail. City now face a trip to Anfield to face the Liverpool side of former Feyenoord boss Arne Slot, whose named was chanted by the visiting fans during the match. “Everybody knows the situation, I don’t have to add absolutely anything,” Guardiola said. “We are going to train tomorrow, recovery and prepare the next game. Day off and we have two or three days to prepare that and go for it. We will learn for the future and what has been has been. “It will be a tough season for us and we have to accept it for many circumstances.” Feyenoord’s late fightback brought jubilant scenes in the away end. “I think if you’re from Feyenoord it was an unbelievable evening,” head coach Brian Priske said. “A strange game which ends 3-3 which is an unbelievable result for us and also remarkable in the essence of being 3-0 down in minute 75 away from home against still, for me, the best team in the world. “Normally we don’t celebrate draws but this one is a little bit special.”Insurgents reach gates of Syria’s capital, threatening to upend decades of Assad rule BEIRUT (AP) — A Syrian opposition war monitor and a pro-government media outlet say government forces have withdrawn from much of the central city of Homs. The pro-government Sham FM reported that government forces took positions outside Syria’s third-largest city, without elaborating. Rami Abdurrahman who heads the Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, said Syrian troops and members of different security agencies have withdrawn from the city, adding that rebels have entered parts of it. Losing Homs is a potentially crippling blow for Syria’s embattled leader, Bashar Assad. An archbishop's knock formally restores Notre Dame to life as winds howl and heads of state look on PARIS (AP) — France’s iconic Notre Dame Cathedral has formally reopened its doors for the first time since a devastating fire nearly destroyed the 861-year-old landmark in 2019. The five-year restoration is widely seen as a boost for French President Emmanuel Macron, who championed the ambitious timeline, and brings a welcome respite from his domestic political woes. World leaders, dignitaries, and worshippers gathered on Saturday evening for the celebrations under the cathedral's soaring arches. The celebration was attended by 1,500 dignitaries, including President-elect Donald Trump, Britain’s Prince William, and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. For Catholics, Notre Dame’s rector said the cathedral “carries the enveloping presence of the Virgin Mary, a maternal and embracing presence.′′ Trump is welcomed by Macron to Paris with presidential pomp and joined by Zelenskyy for their talks PARIS (AP) — French President Emmanuel Macron has welcomed Donald Trump to Paris with a full dose of presidential pomp. And they held a hastily arranged meeting with Ukraine’s Volodymyr Zelenskyy on a day that's mixing pageantry with attention to pressing global problems. The president-elect's visit to France is part of a global a celebration of the reopening of Notre Dame Cathedral five years after a devastating fire. Macron and other European leaders are trying to win Trump’s favor and persuade him to maintain support for Ukraine in its defense against Russia’s invasion. Trump isn't back in office but he's already pushing his agenda and negotiating with world leaders NEW YORK (AP) — Donald Trump is making threats, traveling abroad, and negotiating with world leaders. He has more than a month-and-a-half to go before he’s sworn in for a second term. But the president-elect is already moving aggressively to not only fill his Cabinet and outline policy goals, but also to try to achieve his priorities. In recent days, Trump has threatened to impose a 25% tariff on goods from Canada and Mexico, two of the country’s largest trading partners. That led to emergency calls and a visit. And he's warned of “ALL HELL TO PAY” if Hamas doesn't release the hostages still being held captive in Gaza. South Korea's president avoids an impeachment attempt over short-lived martial law SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — South Korea’s embattled President Yoon Suk Yeol has avoided an opposition-led attempt to impeach him over his short-lived imposition of martial law. Most of Yoon's ruling party lawmakers boycotted a parliamentary vote Saturday to deny a two-thirds majority needed to suspend his presidential powers. The scrapping of the motion is expected to intensify protests calling for Yoon’s ouster and deepen political chaos in South Korea. A survey suggests a majority of South Koreans support the president’s impeachment. Yoon’s martial law declaration drew criticism from his own ruling conservative People Power Party. But the party also apparently fears losing the presidency to liberals. Days after gunman killed UnitedHealthcare's CEO, police push to ID him and FBI offers reward NEW YORK (AP) — Nearly four days after the shooting of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, police still do not know the gunman’s name or whereabouts or have a motive for the killing. But they have made some progress in their investigation into Wednesday's killing of the leader of the largest U.S. health insurer, including that the gunman likely left New York City on a bus soon after fleeing the scene. The also found that the gunman left something behind: a backpack that was discovered in Central Park. Police are working with the FBI, which on Friday night announced a $50,000 reward for information leading to an arrest and conviction. UnitedHealthcare CEO's shooting opens a door for many to vent frustrations over insurance The fatal shooting of UnitedHealthcare's CEO has opened the door for many people to vent their frustrations and anger over the insurance industry. The feelings of exasperation, anger, resentment, and helplessness toward insurers aren’t new. But the shooting and the headlines around it have unleashed a new wave of patients sharing such sentiments and personal stories of interactions with insurance companies. Conversations at dinner tables, office water coolers, social gatherings and on social media have pivoted to the topic. Many say they hope the new amplified voices can bring about change for companies often accused of valuing profits over people. 2 Pearl Harbor survivors, ages 104 and 102, return to Hawaii to honor those killed in 1941 attack PEARL HARBOR, Hawaii (AP) — The bombing of Pearl Harbor 83 years ago launched the United States into World War II. Two survivors have returned to the Hawaii military base for a remembrance ceremony on the attack's anniversary. Both are over 100 years old. They joined active-duty troops, veterans and members of the public for an observance hosted by the Navy and the National Park Service. A third survivor was planning to join them but had to cancel due to health issues. The bombing killed more than 2,300 U.S. servicemen.

The cause of the disaster is unclear. Emergency authorities said four people were rescued from the rubble and taken to the hospital. The mayor said rescuers were no longer looking for survivors but for eventual bodies, but could not specify how many people might still be unaccounted for. Residents of the northeastern neighborhood of Mariahoeve in The Hague heard a huge bang and screams before dawn. Dutch authorities have deployed a specialized urban search and rescue team to find victims. How 'Mufasa' rose with Aaron Pierre and Blue Ivy's voices along with new Lin-Manuel Miranda music SAN DIEGO (AP) — When Aaron Pierre was cast as Mufasa, the weight of following in the late James Earl Jones’ legendary footsteps was enough to rattle any actor. But instead of letting the pressure roar too loudly, he harnessed his nerves to breathe fresh life into his young lion character. Pierre found parallels between himself and his character while filming his leading role in “Mufasa: The Lion King,” which opens in theaters Dec. 20. He took the reigns as the new voice of Mufasa after Jones played the iconic King Mufasa in both the 1994 and 2019 versions of Disney’s “The Lion King.” The prequel offers a fresh exploration into Mufasa’s origin story.

What to know about a Wisconsin man who faked his own death and fled to Eastern EuropeStruggling to score away from home in Europe is certainly no longer a concern for Arsenal after this dominant victory in Lisbon. Gabriel Martinelli scored their first Champions League goal away from the Emirates all season, following blanks at Italian sides Atalanta and Inter, within 10 minutes against Sporting CP after neat work down the threatening right side, and two more duly followed as Mikel Arteta’s side cruised to a 3-0 half-time lead. Advertisement Sporting, having lost manager Ruben Amorim to Manchester United , had looked bewildered but pulled one back early in the second half as the home crowd got behind their side, before Arsenal regained control through a penalty from Bukayo Saka just past the hour after Martin Odegaard had been brought down by Ousmane Diomande. The Sporting defender was already on a yellow card and was fortunate to avoid being sent off for the foul. Leandro Trossard completed the win late on, as Arsenal scored five away in the Champions League for the first time in 16 years. Amy Lawrence, Jordan Campbell and Mark Carey analyse the action. How important a statement was that first-half blitz? Believing they can be their best selves is a big deal for this Arsenal team in the Champions League. They arrived in Lisbon knowing they had been inhibited in their Champions League campaign so far, and started the game as if determined to make up for it in record time. The intensity of the press, with a front four on the front foot with fire in their boots, was a nightmare for Sporting. Odegaard bewitched behind the galloping runs of Saka, Martinelli and Kai Havertz . As a blueprint for how to make inroads away from home in Europe, Arsenal could not have been more dominant in that dazzling first half. Their control, focus and efficiency were cranked up. It had supporters racking their brains for the last time they had seen Arsenal so electric, and so mature, in the Champions League. Maybe the famous 5-1 win at Inter in 2003, or the legendary victory against Real Madrid at the Bernabeu in 2006. More recently there was a fine 4-2 in Valencia’s Mestalla in 2019, but that was the Europa League . “You have to make it happen,” said manager Arteta in the build-up to the match. “Those steps are what we have to take next.” Advertisement Arsenal now know they can jump up those steps when their game is in tune. Amy Lawrence Is Odegaard already back to the top of his game? Arsenal fans hardly needed reminding of Odegaard’s quality, but the 25-year-old has wasted no time finding his rhythm since he returned from injury. It is not just the individual skill that Odegaard brings to Mikel Arteta’s side, it is also his ability to unlock Arsenal’s attacking potency on the right flank. Much was made of the attacking triangle of Odegaard, Saka and Ben White last season, but Jurrien Timber looks more than capable of joining the right-sided trio in the latter’s absence. The rotations of that triangle were key in Arsenal’s opener. Odegaard pulled wide and Saka drifted inside, leaving space for Timber to deliver a pinpoint cross for Martinelli to finish at the back post. In truth, Sporting’s five-man defence should not have been pulled apart so easily, given their numerical advantage across the back line, but Arsenal’s rotations forced the Portuguese champions into areas they didn’t want to go. Odegaard’s tendency to consistently pull midfielder Hidemasa Morita out of position allowed Arsenal to exploit gaps on the right side of the pitch — with a similar pattern occurring for their second goal. Morita’s preoccupancy with Odegaard gave Thomas Partey the time and space to lift a ball over Sporting’s back line to Saka, who rolled a simple pass for Kai Havertz to finish. If people thought that Arsenal’s engine had begun to sputter, Odegaard’s recent return from two months out with an ankle injury certainly looks to have clicked them back into gear. Mark Carey How did Saliba and Gabriel control Gyokeres? It was the Swedish striker’s celebration we have come so used to seeing. Sadly for Viktor Gyokeres, it was his direct opponent on the night, Gabriel , who performed it. After timing his run perfectly to meet Declan Rice ’s deep delivery, the Brazilian centre-back headed the ball home to make it 3-0, then clasped his hands over his face in front of the Sporting fans in the corner of the ground. They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery but the copying of Gyokeres’ goal celebration was likely seen as payback for Pedro Goncalves doing the same with Granit Xhaka ’s two seasons ago as Sporting knocked Arsenal out in the last 16 of the Europa League. Gabriel’s goal here capped off a dominant performance in which he shackled Gyokeres, who was the main focus in the lead-up to the game. With Arsenal failing to score in their previous four away games in the competition and the Sporting forward spearheading their 4-1 Champions League win here against Manchester City earlier this month, there has been discussion about whether he is the type of striker Arsenal could do with. Advertisement The only person who refused to talk about his impressive tally of 24 goals in 19 games this season during the build-up to the match was Arteta but he struggled against Gabriel and centre-back partner William Saliba , who was making his 100th Arsenal appearance. Gyokeres likes to drift to the left and cut in on his right foot but tonight he peeled onto Gabriel’s side of the pitch instead. He did not find much joy there, however, as Gabriel repeatedly manhandled him or stepped in front to cut out a pass to his feet. Sporting did find Gyokeres running into space several times but Gabriel managed those situations calmly and did not dive in. The Swede’s two clearest sight of goal came in the second half but he skied both shots well over the bar on a night when he did not produce his best. His best bit of play came late on, when he isolated Jakub Kiwior and got down the outside of the Polish defender but, while his left-footed shot beat David Raya , the ball smacked off the post. Jordan Campbell What are Arsenal’s prospects now for the top eight? Hopes of automatic qualification for the serious stuff, without the need for an extra knockout round, via a top-eight finish feel a lot healthier for Arsenal now. They moved into eighth place with this handsome win, although there may be some movement to the table with the Wednesday matches to come. Scoring five has done wonders for their goal difference, which might be important as the final table shapes up in the new year. Arsenal have three games remaining — Monaco of France’s Ligue 1 at home on December 11, and then in January they host Dinamo Zagreb of Croatia and visit Spain’s Girona, two teams who have not pulled up trees in the league phase so far with three combined wins from eight matches. Is it imperative to finish in the top cluster? No, but it is undeniably favourable. Advertisement Who knows, maybe Arteta will be able to squeeze in a few days for his players in the Dubai sunshine if they avoid that extra knockout round in February. Boosting their performance levels, on top of the standards they have set in the past few days, is a tantalising thought. Amy Lawrence What did Mikel Arteta say? Speaking after the match, Arteta said to TNT Sports: “It’s a big result against a big opponent. They haven’t lost a game here in 18 months and we wanted to make a statement. “I felt really good energy and belief before the match, but you have to put it into practice. I think the first half was exceptional, it gave us the platform to win the game. It was a really positive and important win for us. When asked about the space his side found in the first half, Arteta said: “You have to earn that space, they don’t usually give it. But I think we were really clever and really intelligent, really efficient in the way we attacked them.” On dealing with the goal Sporting pulled back just minutes into the second half, he added: “You could feel the atmosphere was changing, the last thing you want to do is concede in the first minute and give them any belief. But after that we showed after that we showed a lot of personality to bring the game down and to have the ball again and defend deeper. And we went on to score the fourth and I think that is when the game changed again.” What next for Arsenal?

Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel says he was surprised by reports of Shaq Barrett's unretirement plan
LANDOVER, Md. (AP) — Jimmy Carter was honored with a moment of silence before the Atlanta Falcons’ game at the Washington Commanders on Sunday night, hours after the 39th president of the United States died at the age of 100 in Plains, Georgia. Beyond being a Georgia native who led the country from the White House less than 8 miles (12 kilometers) away during his time in office from 1977-81, Carter was the first president to host the NFL's Super Bowl champions there when he welcomed the Pittsburgh Steelers in 1980. Falcons owner Arthur Blank in a statement released by the team before kickoff said he was deeply saddened by the loss of his dear friend and mentor, calling Carter “a great American, a proud Georgian and an inspirational global humanitarian.” “He lived his life with great civic responsibility and took it upon himself to be the change he wished to see amongst other,” Blank said, recalling meeting Carter at The Home Depot. “President Carter’s kind and uniting spirit touched so many lives. He was a man of deep faith, and did everything with principal and grace, doing things the right way for the right reasons."

The economic impact of the pandemic in 2020 marked the beginning of widespread unemployment and financial hardship. Although lockdowns have been over for several years, and many people have regained or found new employment, food insecurity remains a growing concern. A 2023 study by USC Dornsife Public Exchange revealed that nearly one-third of Los Angeles County residents experience food insecurity. According to the Los Angeles Regional Food Bank , more than half of the parents surveyed in May 2024 reported difficulty accessing food, particularly as pandemic-era benefits phased out. It also reported that L.A. County has more food-insecure children than any other county in the U.S. In response to this urgent need, the Church of Scientology Los Angeles began providing a weekly food drive in 2020 and has continued to offer this service, helping hundreds of families each week. The Church of Scientology Volunteer Ministers program is a religious social service created in the mid-1970s by L. Ron Hubbard. It constitutes one of the world’s largest independent relief forces. A Volunteer Minister’s mandate is to be “a person who helps his fellow man on a volunteer basis by restoring purpose, truth and spiritual values to the lives of others.” Their creed: “A Volunteer Minister does not shut his eyes to the pain, evil and injustice of existence. Rather, he is trained to handle these things and help others achieve relief from them and new personal strength as well.” Their motto is no matter the circumstances, “Something can be done about it.” For more information on the technology used by the Volunteer Minister, watch Scientology Tools for Life and the documentary Operation: Do Something About It on the Scientology Network on DIRECTV 320 or at www.Scientology.tv .
