(NASDAQ:COIN)DANNY MURPHY: Man City's humiliating 4-0 loss by Tottenham is a wake-up call that Pep Guardiola can't ignore - his side have become far too easy to play against Man City lost their fifth game in a row after Spurs beat them 4-0 at the Etihad Saturday evening's defeat marked the longest losing streak of Guardiola's career Will Ruben Amorim be Man United's saviour? LISTEN NOW: It's All Kicking Off! Available wherever you get your podcasts. Episodes every Monday and Thursday By DANNY MURPHY Published: 22:28 GMT, 23 November 2024 | Updated: 22:29 GMT, 23 November 2024 e-mail View comments I didn’t read too much into Man City ’s previous four defeats which were all away from home and partly down to fielding weakened teams or not taking their chances. But Saturday night’s hammering at the Etihad by Tottenham is a massive wake-up call that Pep Guardiola has to take very seriously. Even though City are becoming too reliant on Erling Haaland for scoring goals, their single biggest concern is how easy Spurs found them to play against. When Pep is in his pomp, even his technical wizards like David Silva worked hard to shut down opponents. They were the best pressing team with Jurgen Klopp ’s Liverpool , opponents couldn’t get out against them. I didn’t see any of that on Saturday. You didn’t need to be a genius to work out Rodri was going to be a huge miss but they’ve deteriorated defensively more than anyone would have forecast. Spurs over-ran and outplayed City with ease. Some of City’s play was lazy. The way Ilkay Gundogan let James Maddison run off him to score was basic dereliction of duty and he wasn’t the only guilty one. Pep Guardiola has now lost five games in a row with Man City, the longest streak in his career Ange Postecoglou's Spurs side move up to sixth, three points behind rivals Arsenal in fourth Erling Haaland has scored one goal in his last four games after netting seven in August alone There are two factors. Firstly, City may collectively be in the comfort zone having won so much for so long. Secondly, the physicality looks off. Kyle Walker is a good example. His game relies on being athletic and while it’s admirable he came back early from injury because the team needed him, he’s not at his usual levels. I think Guardiola will want to work on how his team play without the ball ahead of next Sunday’s big game at Liverpool. No matter your creativity, you can’t survive at this level unless the ‘dirty’ side of the game, the tracking back and limiting space, is organised and adhered to. You can see the City boss searching for answers. He’s been changing his defensive systems regularly. Even at half-time on Saturday he switched by moving Rico Lewis inside into central midfield and went to a 4-3-3 rather than a 4-4-1-1. It’s also a concern that Haaland accounts for half the team’s goals. It’s time for others to step up. I’m more confident that Guardiola will be able to fix the attacking half of the conundrum provided Kevin De Bruyne gets up to speed. I was encouraged by how sharp the Belgian looked when he came on against Spurs. A quick word about Tottenham’s James Maddison, when he plays like that there is no better English playmaker in the league . It’s up to him to maintain those standards. But for City, famed for their runs in the second half of the season, this is a truly critical time. If Liverpool beat Southampton on Sunday and City next weekend , they will be 11 points ahead in the table. Even the great Catalan escapologist wouldn’t be able to come back from that.

Addressing the occasion as Chief Guest, LS Speaker Om Birla said, "India's first Constitution Museum at OP Jindal Global University marks a historic milestone which will acquaint future generations with our Constitution, illuminating its history, inception, and the immense efforts behind its creation. In 2015, Prime Minister Narendra Modi called for the celebration of Constitution Day, highlighting the visionary ideas that shaped our Constitution. He urged us to remember and honour the contributions of those who worked tirelessly to frame this foundational document. Our Constitution stands as a beacon guiding India and the world. Our Constitution enshrines the principles of equality for all. More than a legal framework, our constitution is a transformative document that has brought profound social, economic, and political change. It is not merely a set of laws but a guiding philosophy, that continues to lead us towards a more just and inclusive society. Our democracy has united diverse cultures, languages, and traditions, exemplifying the spirit of "Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam"--the world is one family--throughout its 75-year journey. Under the leadership of Prime Minister Modi, we continue to advance this legacy." The Guest of Honour, Arjun Ram Meghwal, said, "Equality, liberty and fraternity are the cornerstones of our Constitution. We place equality before liberty as it is more important. We will only remain independent, said Dr BR Ambedkar, only when we have equality. I especially laud the effort undertaken by Chancellor Naveen Jindal efforts to ensure that citizens would be free to fly the National Flag respectfully and with dignity and honour. The Constitution Museum is a true memorial to the significant contribution of BR Ambedkar, the main framer of the Indian Constitution and I sincerely hope that it is visited by the current legislators of India to get a modern and digital insight into the making of the Constitution."

The Constitution Academy & the Rights and Freedoms Museum, a Jindal Global University initiative, is an attempt to delve into the cornerstone of India's democracy and the fundamental rights and freedoms enshrined within it. The Chancellor of OP Jindal Global University Naveen Jindal, MP Lok Sabha said, "Constitutionalism is a philosophy that restricts government power and ensures the protection of individual rights. Constitutionalism is a political theory that emphasizes the limitation of governmental power, regardless of its source of proper procedures. It asserts that there are certain actions a government just cannot undertake, even if they are supported by public opinion or proper procedures. The Constitution Museum is a reminder of the vision of our Founding Fathers. It is the longest-written constitution in the world, which came into being because of the painstaking efforts and toil of the constituent assembly. It was crafted with immense foresight to balance individual rights and the state powers; the resolve to secure all its citizens, justice, liberty, and equality and promote fraternity and to assure the dignity of the individual enshrined in the preamble of the Constitution. The Constitution Museum at OP Jindal Global University is a reminder to celebrate the constitution of the world's largest democracy, and to promote the idea of Indian constitutionalism as we commemorate the 75th anniversary of the adoption of the Constitution of India on November 26 this year." Professor C Raj Kumar, the Founding Vice Chancellor of O.P. Jindal Global University thanked the distinguished guests on this momentous occasion and said, "As part of the celebrations, we are also hosting the National Convention on the Constitution of India from 23rd to 25th November. This convention will have distinguished speakers representing the law and public life, including three former Chief Justices, seven judges of the Supreme Court of India, three former judges of the Supreme Court, 20 plus senior advocates of the Supreme Court of India, eight distinguished parliamentarians and different political parties, besides the attorney general for India, the solicitor of India, and several other scholars from India and abroad. It is indeed my distinct honour to extend a warm welcome to our distinguished guests and we are deeply grateful to them for taking the time to inaugurate India's first Constitution Museum. I would also like to extend my gratitude to our benefactor and Founding Chancellor Naveen Jindal MP, Lok Sabha who brought to fruition the vision of a global university in India and has achieved historic recognition through his work in bringing the pride of flying the Indian National Flag for every citizen." The museum is designed to provide a deep and engaging exploration of the Constitution's essential elements and key provisions that every citizen should know. The aim is to make the Constitution both accessible and relevant, demonstrating how its values and ideals have shaped the nation. The visitors can immerse themselves in the sights and sounds of pre-independence India, through 360-degree visual spectacle. Through cutting-edge technology and multimedia storytelling, our exhibit unfolds the chronological tapestry of events leading to the drafting of the Indian Constitution. The collaboration between the O.P. Jindal Global University and IIT Madras will bring to life an unprecedented experience through a tour guide robot called S.A.M.V.I.D. to commemorate the most significant document that defines India as a Republic. On display in the museum's centre is one of the 1000 photolithographic reproductions of the Constitution of India. The original, an elaborately crafted edition that took nearly five years to complete, bears the signatures of the nation's founders--the framers of the Constitution. Prem Behari Narain Raizada rendered the calligraphy, while Nandalal Bose and other artists illustrated the text. The manuscript was published in Dehradun and photolithographed by the Survey of India. The Museum especially highlights the contribution of women members of the Constituent Assembly and there are animations about the life of each female member of the Constituent Assembly focusing on their contribution to the Constitution as well as the making of Independent India. To commemorate the memory of nearly 300 members of the Constituent Assembly, sculptured busts of each member have been placed in niches to recognise their contribution. The gallery also explores the global inspirations and historical frameworks that influenced the creation of India's Constitution, highlighting how these ideas were reimagined and adapted to suit the unique needs and aspirations of India's diverse populace. The mezzanine also holds a hologram exhibit of Dr BR Ambedkar. This installation brings his words and vision to life, allowing visitors to experience his legacy first-hand. The answers have been crafted based on his speeches and writings. The art featured in the museum is anticipated to be a major attraction. Rajesh P Subramanian's sculpture, 'We, The People of India', embodies "unity in diversity," a core constitutional principle. In 'Echoes of Liberty', Rahul Gautam creates a mural that fuses elements from constitutional manuscripts with modern design. Harsha Durugadda's 'Triad of Unity' links themes of unity, justice, and sovereignty. Nishant S. Kumbhatil's 'Insaaf Ki Devi' portrays lady justice holding a balance, a powerful emblem of impartiality in Indian law. Pradeep B. Jogdand's 'Equality Before Law' symbolises equality and justice. Deval Verma's large-scale 'Map challenges viewers to reconsider notions of value and beauty. KR Nariman's 'Freedom' celebrates "We, the People" who uphold constitutional values in their daily lives as citizens. Finally, Rahul Gautam's sculpture 'Founding Mothers' artistically represents an imagined photograph featuring the 15 women members of the Constituent Assembly, honouring their contributions to shaping India's constitutional framework. Anjchita B Nair, CEO, Culture and Head, Centre for Museums has curated the museum emphasising how the Constitution Museum steers away from the typical unidirectional tone taken by conventional museums and instead uses a multitude of formats for innovative storytelling.

Submitted Photo STRONG — The town of Strong came alive with festive cheer on Dec. 7, as residents and visitors enjoyed a full day of holiday activities. The annual Festival of Trees and Treats, a community potluck, a Christmas fair, and a holiday play at Day Mountain Regional Middle School highlighted the day’s events. The Festival of Trees and Treats at the Forster Memorial Building on Main Street drew crowds throughout the day with a variety of attractions. Attendees stocked up on homemade sweet and savory treats such as pies, cookies, bread, rolls, beans, and chili at the bake sale. Shoppers browsed donation tables featuring unique new and used items perfect for holiday gifts. Beautifully decorated trees added to the festive atmosphere, and raffle prizes, including a ton of pellets donated by Lignetics, handcrafted Afghans, and gift certificates, delighted participants. Children wrote letters to Santa and mailed them onsite while families took photos with festive backdrops. At 4 p.m., visitors gathered for carols and hot cocoa as they awaited the arrival of Santa and Mrs. Claus. Santa arrived on a town fire engine, accompanied by Mrs. Claus and the elves, and lit the town tree to delighted onlookers. “It was a great day of activities, culminating with Santa arriving via our town’s fire engine along with Mrs. Claus and the elves,” said event organizer Mary Ayotte. “I would like to take this opportunity on behalf of the Strong Festival of Trees and Treats committee, to give a heartfelt thank you,” Ayotte wrote in a Facebook post after the event. “To our wonderful community for showing up and making our event a success, we hope you had some fun and had a good time, cause we had a blast putting it on.” Earlier in the day, the Strong United Methodist Church hosted its Christmas fair and bake sale at the Parish Hall from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Visitors explored handmade crafts, toys, art, crocheted items, and baked goods.

It matters less due to technology's ability to connect the world and give us the ability to communicate like never before. Video messaging allows us to speak to friends and family who live thousands of miles away as if we are standing right next to them. It's also fairly common for people to work remotely for companies based in another state or even another country. However, where you live can still impact other parts of your life because of factors including the weather, cost of living, traffic, and your taxes. Some states don't tax any income, offering potentially a nice windfall to one's earnings and savings. The same applies to retirement income . While the majority of states do tax retirement income, 13 do not, although naturally, things aren't so black and white. Let's dive in. Nine states don't have taxes These 9 states don't levy a tax at all. This could have to do with politics in the state or the desire to boost the population, which usually leads to a faster-growing economy. This strategy has been successful with people in overcrowded states with high taxes moving to other states with no taxes. Here are the 9 that don't tax any income: Alaska Florida New Hampshire (see below) Nevada South Dakota Tennessee Texas Washington Wyoming It probably won't surprise you to learn that Florida, Texas, and Nevada are three of the top-five, fastest-growing states in the country between 2008 and 2023. There are likely other reasons to explain why this has occurred, but taxes are certainly an important one. One thing to note is that New Hampshire does tax income from investments, such as dividends, at a 5% rate, although you must make at least $2,400 if you are single and $4,800 if filing jointly. However, this tax has been eliminated and will be phased out after this year. Four states tax -- but not retirement income The four states below levy a tax on payroll income but spare retirement income: Illinois Iowa Mississippi Pennsylvania Per the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), retirement income can include Social Security benefits and income from annuities, retirement or profit-sharing plans, insurance contracts, and individual retirement accounts (IRAs). Forty-one states don't tax Social Security benefits, and others could join this group in the future. Keep in mind that you are still on the hook for federal taxes on income from sources such as Social Security. Retirees who make between $25,000 and $34,000 as a single filer still need to pay taxes on as much as half of their benefits. Retirees who make over $34,000 would have to pay taxes on as much as 85% of their benefits. These figures are not the actual tax rate but just the amount of income that taxes will be levied on. The same rules apply to joint filers, but the ranges are $32,000 and $44,000 for getting half of your benefits taxed and more than $44,000 for 85% of benefits taxed. Ultimately, even though some states tax retirement income and others don't, the situation is rarely so cut and dry. For instance, Minnesota has one of the highest tax rates on Social Security benefits but is a cheaper place to live than the national average. Washington doesn't tax any income but still has a total tax burden of over 8% due to high sales and excise taxes. Other states may charge expensive property taxes. So while important, taxes on retirement income should not be your only consideration when thinking about which state to live in.Tesla shares rose to a historic high on Wednesday, beating the electric car maker’s previous record from 2021, which was set after the post-election rush and renewed Wall Street enthusiasm for Elon Musk’s electric vehicle empire. This is due to the fact that stock hit a closing price of $424.77 more than doubling its previous peak of $409.97 on November 4, 2021. The electric car company’s 71% gain this year has been propelled more by the optimism generated with Donald Trump’s victory during the elections than its early performance woes. Record-Breaking Stock Surge For Tesla Tesla’s stock price rallied 38% in November, the best monthly performance since January 2023 and its 10th best month on record. The surge in Tesla’s market capitalization was fueled by investor optimism over Trump’s victory early last month, which has dramatically influenced the trajectory of the company’s stock. This increase in share value has surprised investors, especially since Tesla was off to a rocky start for the year. With a 29% loss in the first quarter of 2024, Tesla’s shares have bounced back considerably, recovering from their worst performance in over a year. The rise in Tesla’s shares has been termed as the “Trump bump” by many analysts. As Craig Irwin, an analyst of Roth MKM, had commented on CNBC’s Squawk on the Street, that “Musk’s genuine backing for Trump likely doubled the pool of enthusiasts and heightened credibility for an inflection in demand.” Irwin raised his price target of Tesla to $380 versus $85, after winning the election by Trump. Musk’s active involvement in Trump’s campaign and post-election strategies has further solidified the link between the two figures. In the lead-up to the election, Musk reportedly invested $277 million into pro-Trump efforts, focusing on swing-state operations aimed at voter registration. Additionally, Musk’s social media platform, X, became a vehicle for promoting Trump’s candidacy and further galvanizing Tesla’s support base. Musk’s Expanding Influence And Role Of AI Elon Musk ‘s influence does not seem to be dissipating anytime soon, especially after President Trump’s election win and his appointment as an adviser in the new administration. “Department of Government Efficiency,” led by former Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy, will supposedly be headed by Musk himself. This influential position is likely to give Musk leeway to oversee federal agency budgets, staffing, as well as push for the end of regulations that would really hinder Tesla’s growth. Musk’s position may affect Tesla significantly, especially on the technological advancement of its autonomous vehicles. A long-time advocate for autonomous driving, Musk shared in a Tesla earnings call last October his plan to use his political power to “get federal approval process for autonomous vehicles” and bypassing the state-by-state level approval system. Wall Street’s Brighter Future Ahead For Tesla Analysts have been growing more bullish on the prospects of Tesla as it continues its upward trajectory. Goldman Sachs upgraded its price target for Tesla, and the list of financial institutions that have upgraded their outlook on the stock continues to grow. In its report, Goldman analysts cited the market’s forward-looking approach towards Tesla, particularly with regard to its artificial intelligence (AI) initiatives. Other investment firms such as Morgan Stanley and Bank of America also released positive reports about Tesla, noting the company’s ability to cash in on newer technologies such as AI and autonomous driving. These positive reports have been strengthening investor sentiment, further fueling a price hike of the stock. Despite the dismal first half of 2024, Tesla’s third-quarter earnings report in October reported that revenue was up 8% year-over-year, narrowly missing analysts’ expectations, but the company did blow past profit estimates. Even more encouraging was Musk’s forecast for 2025: a 20% to 30% rate of vehicle growth, underpinned by “lower-cost vehicles” and the start of autonomy. Musk’s forecast was more positive than analysts had expected, which reflects a level of confidence in Tesla’s ability to adapt and thrive in an increasingly competitive market. As Tesla continues its journey in the electric vehicle sector, it will be interesting to see how the company will leverage its recent stock surge and the growing interest in emerging automotive technologies.

A class action lawsuit has already been filed. If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than February 7, 2025. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation. WHY ROSEN LAW: We encourage investors to select qualified counsel with a track record of success in leadership roles. Often, firms issuing notices do not have comparable experience, resources, or any meaningful peer recognition. Be wise in selecting counsel. The Rosen Law Firm represents investors throughout the globe, concentrating its practice in securities class actions and shareholder derivative litigation. Rosen Law Firm achieved the largest ever securities class action settlement against a Chinese Company at the time. Rosen Law Firm was Ranked No. 1 by ISS Securities Class Action Services for number of securities class action settlements in 2017. The firm has been ranked in the top 4 each year since 2013 and has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors. In 2019 alone the firm secured over $438 million for investors. In 2020, founding partner Laurence Rosen was named by law360 as a Titan of Plaintiffs’ Bar. Many of the firm’s attorneys have been recognized by Lawdragon and Super Lawyers. DETAILS OF THE CASE: According to the lawsuit, the Offering Documents used to effectuate Kyverna’s IPO misstated and/or omitted facts concerning the results of Kyverna’s ongoing evaluation of KYV-101, Kyverna’s lead product candidate, in clinical trials. Specifically, Kyverna touted patient “improvement” in certain indicators while failing to disclose adverse data regarding one of Kyverna’s trials, which adverse data was known to Kyverna at the time of the IPO. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.

MORGANTOWN – Imagine how difficult it must be to perfectly program timed traffic lights to optimize the flow of traffic in a densely populated urban area. Now imagine doing it from two cities over, or maybe 150 miles away. That, in a nutshell, is the setup when it comes to traffic lights in West Virginia. If Morgantown, or any other city in the state, needs to alter the timing of lights to better accommodate daily traffic, emergencies or special events, it requires someone somewhere else to make it happen. “Yes, oversight of the timing programmed into signals is handheld centrally by the Traffic Division in Charleston. If issues are reported with the timing of signals, those issues are investigated by our office remotely, by our field technicians, or by an on-call electrical contractor that we have in place,” DOH Director of Traffic Engineering Ted Whitmore explained. But why couldn’t it be done here, by someone who sits through these lights and experiences local traffic? Members of the Morgantown Monongalia Metropolitan Planning Organization Policy Board would like to find out. “There’s been quite a bit of discussion about RAISE Grants and potential grant opportunities that have come our way. We’ve been encouraged to explore big ideas,” MPO Executive Director Bill Austin said. “One of the big ideas that we’ve come up with has been the potential for exploring a traffic control center here, just so we could oversee and have better communication with the operation of the signals moving forward.” The board encouraged Austin to initiate those discussions. It was explained that the funds sub-allocated to be directed by the MPO each year could help cover the cost of the physical location and needed personnel. “It would allow the implementation of several timing routines to match the area’s traffic. For example, peak morning traffic has different characteristics than peak afternoon traffic, both of which are different from midday peak traffic and basketball game traffic or football game traffic,” Austin said. “A good portion of the signals in our area are capable of being programmed to match these peaks but it is simply not being done because all signal control is in Charleston, and since they monitor the whole state, they don’t have the manpower to personalize the programming for any one area.” Whitmore said perceived timing issues are often found to be broken or malfunctioning vehicle detection equipment. He said that if a timing issue is identified, adjustments can be made remotely in some cases, but not all, noting “In many cases a site visit is necessary. WVDOT maintains a very large network of traffic signals which vary in age. Not all signals have remote communications established.” If this idea were to get the blessing of the state, and that’s a significant “if,” it would be a first in West Virginia. “Establishing operational facilities outside of Charleston is not being considered at this time,” Whitmore said. “When issues are reported at key locations necessitating action quickly, if a site visit is necessary the WVDOT keeps a technician as well as our on-call contractor on call 24/7 to allow for response in typically no more than a few hours.” Even so, Monongalia County Commissioner Tom Bloom said he believes it’s worth the ask. “Governor-elect Morrisey has mentioned that he wants to do something significant in this area. I believe this is something that not only supports his goals and the state DOH, but it could resolve many of the problems up here,” Bloom said. Bloom said he believes it would allow for quicker responses to potential emergencies, like critical traffic lights going dark. “An emergency is when a light goes out Friday night before a football game on 705 and we can’t get it fixed for 48 hours. Now we need to get help from Charleston or the Huntington area, and they approve it and send someone out, often from another state, to come down to fix it,” Bloom said. “We’re looking at the feasibility of being trained and having the people up here who could solve these problems. Why wait when we could solve these problems in a couple hours before they become a safety factor?”The owner of the technology that makes prepaid electricity meters work disputed an Eskom claim about the TID rollover. Eskom issued a statement on Monday that said that meters that have not been updated and that run out of credit will need to be replaced. A representative of the Standard Transfer Specification Association, a Salga representative and industry sources have said that this is not their expectation. For more financial news, go to the News24 Business front page. The owner of the technology that makes prepaid electricity meters work has disputed Eskom's claim that users whose meters have not been updated by Sunday at 20:15 and who run out of credit will need a meter replacement, a penalty which Eskom has priced at R12 000. Eskom issued a statement on Monday evening which stated that prepaid electricity users who had not updated their meters by the deadline and who subsequently ran out of credit would need to get a full meter replacement, at a cost of R12 000, which would be footed by the customer. This information was repeated by Electricity and Energy Minister Kgosientsho Ramokgopa in his address to the media on Wednesday. In the days since, massive queues have started to form outside of Eskom and municipal offices across the country, as many people are rushing in the final hours before the date rollover issue impacting the vending system on Sunday at 20:15. Several outlets have reported that a man died in a queue outside the Eskom office in Soweto. A spokesperson for the Standard Transfer Specification Association (STSA), a TID rollover leader representing the South African Local Government Association (Salga), as well as several well-placed industry sources, told News24 that meter replacement is not a foreseeable consequence of the...
