Members of the society are abuzz with excitement, eagerly awaiting the official announcement on New Year's Day. The reveal is expected to take place at the society's annual New Year's Eve gala, a glamorous event attended by the who's who of high society.
I WANT Marcus Rashford to succeed, to be the player we know he can be. But we are now on a slippery slope of performances dropping at Manchester United — and nothing is changing from new manager to new manager. So, I have to ask him: Do you even want to do this? Do you want to play football? It’s not an easy game, or an easy life. People think it is because of the amount of money and all that but there is a lot of nonsense that goes on in the background, a lot of stresses. And I don’t see a scenario in the next few months, or years, where he flips it on his head and all of a sudden comes good. Or he turns around and says: ‘I’m gonna prove you all wrong’. That makes me genuinely sad, especially because I know this will be weighing on him mentally long-term. Can you still get something out of him? I’m not sure. He needs a strict hand on him, but even that doesn’t seem to work sometimes. He’s 27 — his peak years. He’s got all the attributes you’d want for a modern-day winger or a striker, but he’s currently got the appetite of a 35-year-old. Compare it to the attitude and desire of Jamie Vardy at 37. It is chalk and cheese. BEST FREE BET SIGN UP OFFERS FOR UK BOOKMAKER S Rashford looks like he is carrying the weight of the world on his shoulders. Everything is always everybody else’s fault and his application stinks. He is still capable of moments. It wouldn’t surprise me if he goes and scores the winner against Manchester City this weekend and then goes missing for the next few weeks. He knows he can live off these ‘moments’ and nothing more, and that isn’t good enough. But United have bought this problem on themselves. They have created this person by continuing to reward rubbish behaviour and performances with massive, unwarranted contracts. He has been brought through as the academy favourite, the golden boy, yet when adversity hits, he thinks everyone is against him, instead of facing up and focusing on himself. So, I have to ask him: Do you even want to do this? Do you want to play football? And it is the same old cycle. A new manager comes in and for three of four games you see a ‘new Rashford’ and then he slips back into his old ways and old form. He then begins to get dropped. We saw it on Thursday night, subbed off against Viktoria Plzen and already United boss Ruben Amorim looks fed up with him. Look, I’ve been there. It’s not nice when that is happening. As a striker you want to be left on to build some momentum, but I was at the Emirates when he came on against Arsenal last week. He was a disgrace. Amorim summed it up best when he joined, telling Rashford he will get full support but it is up to him as a player, a person. That’s where the problem lies. Nobody wants Rashford to fail, but if he keeps delivering these substandard performances then we will all keep on saying the same things. Some people say it is the environment at United that is a negative impact, but that’s a poor excuse. You don’t see Harry Maguire or Bruno Fernandes acting out or not giving everything, do you? Another academy graduate like Kobbie Mainoo isn’t acting up because he has good role models around him in his position. He is hungry to improve. So, at what point do you take responsibility for your own actions and say: It’s on me. You can only fake it for so long if you are not a hard worker, you’re not sticking to a professional regime and you’re heart isn’t in it any more. At the moment Rashford is nothing more than an academy symbol of the past, a local lad that United are too scared to move on because of what the reaction from the fan base might be. Man Utd have created this person by continuing to reward rubbish behaviour and performances with massive, unwarranted contracts. But why would anyone in England want to take Rashford on? Why would boss Mikel Arteta risk ruining all his hard work at Arsenal of building a culture of elite professionals and high standards for him? Chelsea have a young, energetic squad that could revitalise him, but I reckon most of those players would look at him now and think: Well you’re a waste of time. And no one is going to pay his current wages — he is rewarded like he is one of the best three players in the Prem yet he wouldn’t get into any of the top SIX starting XIs right now. If I was advising him, I’d tell him to go abroad but even then I’m not sure how that would go. I do feel sorry for Marcus, but he has had enough bad examples of players around him, or in his age bracket, who have gone down a similar path. It should be enough to motivate you not to become one of them, someone like Jesse Lingard. But Rashford is not seeing the warning signs all around him. THE blame game has another victim as things go from bad to worse at Old Trafford. Manchester United’s first sporting director, Dan Ashworth, arrived in the summer and is gone before Christmas. SunSport exclusively revealed last month that there was trouble at mill. That the new senior management team were already blaming each other for the mess the club were in. Chief executive Omar Berrada and Ashworth were trying to wash their hands of it all, claiming they had arrived too late after serving their gardening leave. New part owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe said making decisions was all down to them. Meanwhile, Jason Wilcox thought it was all a mess under previous boss Erik ten Hag but was part of the team that encouraged him to stay after every other candidate ran for cover. There is word Ashworth did not favour appointing his successor and new head coach Ruben Amorim, preferring an English manager with more experience in our game. Perhaps that was why ex-England gaffer Gareth Southgate’s name was always mentioned after they worked together at the FA. Either way, Saturday’s showing against Nottingham Forest, after their second-half capitulation at Arsenal a few days previously, proved too much.
Furthermore, the refined measures emphasize the importance of stringent quality control and risk management. Suppliers are required to undergo rigorous evaluations to ensure compliance with quality standards and ethical practices. In addition, regular inspections and audits are conducted to identify any potential risks or issues in the procurement process. By implementing these measures, regulators can mitigate the risks of counterfeit products, substandard materials, and other harmful practices that could jeopardize patient safety.SANTA ANA, Calif., Dec. 13, 2024 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) — In a groundbreaking move for the property management and inspection industry, ( ) introduces its cutting-edge app, a pioneering digital platform designed to revolutionize the balcony inspection process.

In the midst of uncertainty and change, Nani found solace in the realization that he was his own guiding light. He understood that his worth and value extended far beyond the confines of a football pitch. His journey was not defined by the accolades he received or the titles he won, but rather by the resilience, determination, and unwavering spirit that propelled him forward.
A look back at 2024 in photosWhen the Nebraska football team gathered for its Thursday practice prior to the Wisconsin game, offensive coordinator Dana Holgorsen wanted to see a game-ready unit. Anything other than the best wasn’t good enough, and Holgorsen backed it up. The players who made mistakes, even committing false start penalties during that practice didn’t play on Saturday because of it, Nebraska head coach Matt Rhule said. Those who did their job got their chance, though, with Rhule identifying senior wide receiver Isiaha Garcia-Castaneda as one such beneficiary. So while Holgorsen’s playcalling was part of Nebraska’s 44-point outburst against the Badgers, his general approach is what Rhule appreciates most. “You hear Dana on the headset, the whole time he’s just talking about execution,” Rhule said. “... There’s a real focus on execution and when the guys execute the play calls. I think that was the message to the guys — if you execute and practice at a high level, you’re going to have an opportunity to play in the game.” Changes have been limited in Holgorsen’s short time as NU’s offensive coordinator, but he did make sure the Huskers scaled back the number of plays in their playbook. “We’re still doing a lot,” Rhule said, while crediting assistant coaches Glenn Thomas, Garret McGuire and Marcus Satterfield for their work in helping Holgorsen get accustomed to the team’s offensive setup. A “collaborative” gameplanning process that involves those coaches poring over game film and strategy together has led to results, but Rhule again emphasized that improvements from the players, not the coaches, is what has led to better results. When Nebraska was in rhythm on Saturday and stayed ahead of the chains, the Huskers were nearly impossible to slow down. When penalties, turnovers or miscues like snapping on the wrong count happened, though, the offense’s progress was halted. The clear difference? Execution. “It’s kind of a blend of everything we’ve been trying to say to them all year coming to life,” Rhule said of Nebraska’s 44-point performance. “I think the thing Dana’s done a great job is, he’s cut things down to a degree, but he’s demanding that they execute if they want to get on the field.” Nebraska also couldn’t have cut apart the Wisconsin defense without a reinvigorated showing from quarterback Dylan Raiola. Having thrown at least one interception in his previous five starts, Raiola finished the game turnover-free for the first time since September. The freshman also completed 28-of-38 passes for 293 yards and one touchdown, his biggest passing output other than a 297-yard performance against Illinois. Part of the reason for the turnaround was health-related following the back injury Raiola suffered against UCLA. Held out of practice over the bye, Raiola was “ginger” the whole game against USC according to Rhule but was more comfortable with moving around and sliding up in the pocket last Saturday. Getting the ball out quickly and accurately also helped Raiola’s timing within the offense. “He was just taking completions, taking what was there and not trying to do too much,” Rhule said of Raiola. “Playing as a freshman in the Big Ten is really, really hard; it requires tough people and I think Dylan’s been tough in that he’s gotten better every week.” Nebraska’s progress will be tested in a matchup against the nation’s No. 12 scoring defense, an Iowa unit that is allowing just 17.7 points per game. Another week with Holgorsen at the helm will help Nebraska with that challenge as the Huskers look to build on their recent offensive surge. “Just the rhythm of the way he does things means total sense to me,” Rhule said of Holgorsen. “... If I coach with Dana for one more week or if we coach together for the next 10 years, I’ll be a better coach as a result.” Get local news delivered to your inbox!A century-old land owner has seen its stock soar almost 200% this year amid a scramble for AI data centers
#trump is probably going to kill the crash reporting rule that made #tesla look badNASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — The right frame can freeze a moment in time, creating meaning for the masses from a fist pump over a bloodied ear , a bridge crumbled by a ship , towns shredded by nature , and a victory sealed with an on-field kiss . In 2024, photographers across the U.S. captured glimpses of humanity, ranging from a deeply divisive presidential election , to hurricanes and fires that ravaged communities, to campus protests over the war between Israel and Hamas in Gaza. The gallery from The Associated Press illustrates a new chapter of political history — the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump , the moment President Joe Biden announced he would no longer run again , the campaign sprint by Vice President Kamala Harris in Biden’s place, and the raw emotion from voters during a grueling contest ultimately won by Trump . Related Articles Hurricanes whipped through the country with devastating imagery, leaving a path of wreckage and death from Florida to Appalachia . After Hurricane Helene , Lake Lure in North Carolina was shown in a jarring photo covered in shards of debris thick enough to hide the surface of the water. Hurricane Milton ripped apart the roof of Tropicana Field in St. Petersburg, Florida, home to Major League Baseball’s Tampa Bay Rays. The scale of destruction experienced in some corners of the country in 2024 was hard to capture and might have been harder to fathom. That was the case when a container ship slammed into the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore, causing it to collapse and crumple around the vessel, killing construction workers on the bridge. As flames torched the landscape in California , another image captured firefighters and sheriff’s deputies pushing a vintage car away from a burning home. Elsewhere in California , one photo is aglow with bright orange flames, broken up only by the subtle features of an animal running through them. But hope also persevered in the face of devastation. In Helene’s aftermath , an image from Crystal River, Florida, shows Dustin Holmes holding hands with his girlfriend, Hailey Morgan, as they sloshed through floodwaters with her 4- and 7-year-old children to return to their flooded home. And in Manasota Key, Florida, a family was lit up by the glow of flashlights as they walked to check on their home damaged by Milton. Other photos from 2024 also grabbed the darkness and shadows to emphasize light: among them, a rocket liftoff and a total solar eclipse . And, yes, eclipse glasses were back in style for a shared moment of skygazing. But many other photos delivered a blast of color, from the spectrum of the northern lights across a Maine sky to a crew of workers wading into the deep-red of a Massachusetts cranberry bog . And, once again, Taylor Swift captured the country’s attention, even as a part of the crowd. She rushed down from the stands to kiss her boyfriend, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, after the Chiefs won the AFC Championship , en route to another Super Bowl win.

This Thanksgiving , celestial enthusiasts in the United States have an extra reason to look up. A minor solar storm is forecast to grace the Northern Hemisphere with the mesmerizing northern lights , also known as the aurora borealis . The dazzling phenomenon, characterized by green, red, and pink hues, is expected to be visible in parts of the northern United States on Thanksgiving night and Black Friday, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), as mentioned in a report by USA Today. This rare event comes courtesy of a coronal mass ejection (CME) from the Sun, which is sending charged particles hurtling toward Earth. While these geomagnetic storms pose minimal risks to satellites and power grids, they promise a stunning spectacle for skygazers, offering a festive alternative to post-dinner football or shopping. NOAA Issues Geomagnetic Storm Watch NOAA's Space Weather Prediction Center has been tracking the CME since earlier this week, issuing a geomagnetic storm watch for Thursday and Friday. The event is classified as a G1 (minor) on Thanksgiving Day, escalating to G2 (moderate) by Friday, as per the report by USA Today.

NOAA's forecast suggests the auroras will be brighter and visible across parts of Europe, Asia, and North America. Also Read : Coders and engineers are rare minerals in Silicon Valley? No more, hiring for high-paying jobs once considered recession-proof has tanked; here's why Where to See the Northern Lights in the US The northern lights are typically most vibrant near the magnetic poles, but the approaching solar storm will allow them to stretch into states not often graced by such displays. States like Idaho, Wyoming, Nebraska, and Maryland are among those that may catch a glimpse, with the lights visible as low on the horizon in some areas, as per the USA Today report. Key cities with potential aurora sightings include: Lincoln, Nebraska Indianapolis, Indiana Annapolis, Maryland Boise, Idaho Cheyenne, Wyoming Visibility, however, will depend on local weather conditions and the level of light pollution. For the best views, experts recommend venturing to dark, open spaces away from city lights. When to Look for the Auroras For optimal aurora viewing, NOAA advises heading outside around midnight when the activity peaks. However, the exact timing can be unpredictable, as aurora forecasts remain challenging to pinpoint. NOAA’s aurora dashboard and local weather updates can help skygazers plan their evening. Also Read : Prosecutors new claim against Sean Diddy Combs: Rapper physically abused and threatened to kill staff The Science Behind the Northern Lights Auroras occur when charged particles from the Sun interact with Earth’s magnetosphere and atmospheric gases, causing the release of energy in the form of light. These interactions create stunning displays of color that vary depending on the altitude and type of gas involved. As the Sun approaches its solar maximum—a period of heightened solar activity that occurs every 11 years—events like this are expected to become more frequent. With the solar cycle peaking through 2025, aurora enthusiasts can anticipate more opportunities to witness these breathtaking natural light shows. FAQs What is the cause of the northern lights? These dazzling light displays occur due to magnetic storms sparked by solar activity, including solar flares or coronal mass ejections. Charged particles from these phenomena travel toward Earth via the solar wind. Do the northern lights happen every night? "The northern lights are active around the clock, every day of the year," explained Chad Blakely, photographer and owner of the northern lights tour company Lights Over Lapland. "However, spotting them requires being in the right place at the right time." (You can now subscribe to our Economic Times WhatsApp channel )
Moving forward, the fate of Sudan and the success of its transition to civilian rule will depend, in part, on how leaders like Bashir navigate the complexities of political change and chart a course towards a more peaceful and prosperous future for the country and its people. Only time will tell what legacy Bashir will leave behind and how his actions as a transitional government leader will shape Sudan's journey towards lasting stability and democracy.MIAMI — The three Alexander brothers charged with sex trafficking usually exuded only arrogant contempt for the women they assaulted and raped over the course of 20 years, according to court files documenting new sordid details about their “playbook” for luring and drugging victims. But one 2021 exchange between Oren and and Tal Alexander — luxury real estate brokers in Miami and New York — reveals slight concern over keeping their superstar public image intact. “Start to think about reputation you want out there,” Oren says to his older brother Tal in one of the conversations transcribed by federal investigators in a letter filed Wednesday by Damian Williams, U.S. Attorney in the Southern District of New York, recommending that a judge not grant bail to the brothers. “We are on top of the game and only thing can bring us down is some Hoe complaining,” Oren says. “Understood, did someone complain?” Tal says. Women did complain, even after being threatened by the brothers to keep quiet, and four filed civil lawsuits against the brothers earlier this year, leading to federal and state sex trafficking and rape charges in Miami and New York City that could land them in prison for the rest of their lives. Tal, 38, and twins Oren and Alon, 37, were arrested at their Miami Beach homes Wednesday by police, FBI agents and Miami-Dade State Attorney’s Office investigators. Attorney Evan Torgan, who is representing two victims, told the Miami Herald an additional 40 women, including a dozen from Miami, have come forward with sexual assault and rape allegations , some dating back to the brothers’ teenage years at Dr. Michael M. Krop High School near Aventura. One refrain in the women’s complaints is that the brothers often took turns assaulting them while the others watched or pinned them down. The brothers’ Miami attorney Joel Denaro said any intimate relations they engaged in were consensual. The brothers are expected to be transferred to the same New York City court that indicted rap mogul Sean “Diddy” Combs and deceased financier Jeffrey Epstein on sex trafficking charges. Started in high school, feds say Evidence shows that the Alexander brothers “began engaging in acts of sexual violence, including gang rapes, while still in high school,” the letter states. “Several of these victims were given alcohol by one of the defendants or other individuals,” prosecutors say, and the victims reported “hearing that individuals involved—including Tal Alexander—talked about the assaults at school, boasting about ‘running train’ on their victims and saying that they wanted to ‘do it again.’” Oren bragged in the Krop yearbook that “riding my first ‘choo choo’ train” was his most memorable moment from high school. Parties in the Hamptons, Miami Beach, Mexico As adults splitting their time between Miami and New York City, and hobnobbing in hotspots for the rich and famous, the brothers’ “serial sexual violence only escalated,” the letter says, as they recruited women to parties and trips to the Hamptons, Miami Beach, Mexico, and other places, or met them at nightclubs or on dating apps and invited them back to their apartments, where the victims often imbibed drugged drinks that impaired “their ability to move, and/or memories. Many victims told the brothers ‘no’ or even screamed while the rapes were happening but the defendants ignored any verbal resistance,” the letter says. “The Government has spoken to dozens of women who reported being similarly raped by one or more of the Alexander Brothers between 2005 and 2021.” The Alexander brothers, with other men, planned “imports” of women to a vacation rental in the resort town of Tulum, Mexico, in October, 2016, and discussed splitting costs and which drugs — including the drug G, identified as the date rape drug GHB — to give the women in a “Lions in Tulum” WhatsApp chat discovered by investigators. It’s one of several documented in the letter: Male-1 (4:17 PM): Going to start collecting for the pot to fly bitches down. ALON (4:20 PM): There should be a fee per bang and after bang Male-1 (8:23 PM): Starting to collect venmo for girls flights OREN (8:23 PM): O yea. What’s the lineup. Need to pick winners. Male-1 (8:24 PM): Lol. It’s gonna be hard to get girls up to your standard OREN (8:27 PM): Just warn him ur boys are hungry TAL (10:23 PM): Girls look fresh ALON (6:00 PM): I think we should all bring chicks and not rely only on promoter since we never met the girls. We need fun girls with good attitude, I’m sure we all met many recently this summer. Male-2. I know you know some winners. Male-1 (6:07 PM): I don’t want anyone being upset if they don’t run a 10 man train Male-1 (6:12 PM): I just need to handle drugs TAL (6:12 PM): Yes Male-1 (6:12 PM): I don’t want X around too much Male-1 (6:13 PM): Coke, shrooms and G Male-1 (6:13 PM): X makes the girls wanna chase the fucking party TAL (1:38 PM): Photographers? Drugs? Male-1 (1:50 PM): All getting worked on OREN (3:50 PM): Just trying to make sure I get max returns. Was going to come for that Sunday night tax and make sure all girls make quota Male-1 (3:50 PM): Lol. The whole $500 dollars on a flight? OREN (3:50 PM): No free rides under my watch OREN (3:51 PM): That’s more than most of us ever spent on girls. Just want to make sure we get a good ROI [return on investment]. Over Labor Day weekend 2016, Alon and Oren arranged for two women from Illinois they met on a dating app to fly to their vacation house in the Hamptons for a party. In messages from Oren’s iCloud account they discuss booking flights, and Alon says, “We split and try to orgy then out?” Tal replies, “For sure,” the letter states. Tal arranged for “hot” women to come to the house with promoters from a chat called “Hampton Hot Chicks,” in an exchange in which the promoter says “I want photos of the girls naked,” and Tal replies, “Lol guys were [sic] going to have a lot of fun.” During the party, the victim from Illinois told investigators that Oren gave her a cocktail and Alon took her to a bedroom. She said she could not move or speak as Oren raped her, and she woke up later with her bathing suit pulled down around her legs. A woman from Manhattan told investigators about a disturbing encounter with Tal in the summer of 2011 at the brothers’ Hamptons house. After she drank half a glass of wine, she felt sick. She remembers being held down by Tal while another man entered the room, and being in another room with Tal and the man and a camcorder. She said she woke up in the grass outside the house with a “physical sensation” of “vaginal penetration.” The brothers relied on “their power and wealth to identify victims, carry out their sadistic sex trafficking scheme, conceal their sexual violence and prevent victims and witnesses from coming forward” by threatening victims with retaliation, the letter says. Tal and Oren filed a police report alleging harassment against a woman who said she was assaulted by them, and Tal said he would sue her for defamation. Another victim said Tal threatened her after she told people he drugged her. After civil lawsuits against the brothers were filed in March, Alon began compiling files on the victims “in an apparent attempt to discredit their accusers,” the letter says. The brothers flaunted their reputation as playboy jet-setters on social media. They were regulars on the New York Post’s celebrity gossip Page Six and named among New York’s most eligible bachelors by Gotham Magazine in 2014. Oren is married now, and asked a Miami judge at a detention hearing Thursday to allow him to accompany his wife, who is nine months’ pregnant, to the hospital when she goes into labor. Alon also sold high-end real estate and now works for Kent Security, a private security and crisis management company founded by the brothers’ father, Schlomy Alexander. In 2012, Schlomy helped Tal and Oren sell an Indian Creek Village home for $47 million, a record in Miami-Dade County at the time. In 2019 the brothers made their most notable deal, the record residential sale of a $240 million midtown Manhattan condominium to billionaire Citadel CEO Ken Griffin, who is now headquartered in Miami. The U.S. attorney’s letter argues that the brothers should remain detained prior to trial because they are a danger to the community, because the weight of corroborating evidence against them — including sexually explicit photos and videos — is strong, and because their wealth, travel habits — often last minute by private jet or yacht — and frequent trips to visit family in Israel make them a flight risk. As recently as May, Tal and Oren brokered a $14.3 million sale in Bay Harbor Islands. The Real Deal, a real estate industry publication, first reported that women had sued the Alexanders for sexual assault.
