Bottom line: While Arm-based PCs face some hurdles, their potential for growth remains significant, driven in particular by claims of superior battery life compared to previous generations. Intel, meanwhile, is making improvements to adapt to new market demands. as highlighted by Michelle Johnston Holthaus, interim co-CEO of Intel, during the Barclays 22nd Annual Global Technology Conference. Johnston Holthaus recently claimed that retailers are grappling with a high return rate of Qualcomm-powered machines. "If you look at the return rate for Arm PCs, you go talk to any retailer, their number one concern is 'I get a large percentage of these back,'" she said, attributing the issue to compatibility problems with common applications. Qualcomm was quick to respond though, "Our device return rates are within industry norms," a representative told CRN. The spokesperson further added that Qualcomm "expects 30% to 50% of laptops to transition to non-x86 platforms within the next five years." Regardless of one claim or the other, Arm-based systems are making inroads into the PC market. While Qualcomm Snapdragon X Elite machines currently hold a mere 0.8% market...

Record-breaking material for film capacitors with 90% efficiency identifiedSMITHFIELD, R.I. (AP) — Malik Grant rushed for 204 yards and three touchdowns and Rhode Island beat Bryant 35-21 on Saturday to capture its first league title in 39 years. Rhode Island (10-2, 7-1 Coastal Athletic Association) secured the program's seventh title, with each of the previous six coming in the Yankee Conference.

Bryant scored in the fourth quarter to make it a one-score game, but a 15-play, 72-yard drive ended with a 3-yard touchdown run by Grant. Grant's 13 rushing touchdowns are tied for Rhode Island's single-season record set last season by Ja’Den McKenzie.

Kirk Herbstreit's dogs have become the highlight of many College GameDay broadcasts. This week, the popular ESPN show travelled to Ohio State University, ahead of the No. 2 Buckeyes' college football match-up against the Indiana Hoosiers. And Herbstreit's dog, Peter, looked right at home. In fact, he might have been a bit too comfortable - causing chaos during Pat McAfee 's Kicking Contest. The mini game, in it's second season, sees a fan attempt a 33-yard field goal in front of a large crowd live on ESPN. If they successfully complete the kick, they are awarded hundreds of thousands of dollars from McAfee himself. This week, a contestant stepped up with a rather unique attempt. Carson, wearing an Ohio State Buckeyes hoodie, tried to convert the kick with no shoes on. His decision impressed McAfee, who raved about the 'barefoot' attempt. But as he stepped up to make a $400,000 kick - which would win $200,000 for himself and $200,000 for charity - Carson was iced by Peter the dog. Herbstreit's pup made his presence felt, strutting around the kicking area. "Jeez, Peter, you're icing this kick... You've got no chance, you've got Peter all in your brain, this is a part of kicking," McAfee said, while Herbstreit joked that the dog was ready to block the attempt. Unsurprisingly, with so much going on, the kick was fluffed. But spotting a moment of TV gold, McAfee decided to up the ante, offering a second kick for $500,000. "With the dog, the people, the barefoot, your first attempt was wonderful. Can you put it through now?" the former NFL star asked. The answer? No. Carson's second kick was worse than his first, and the $500,000 prize was not claimed. "This guy sucks, that's what I thought," McAfee concluded, adding that he will donate $100,000 to charity regardless. Perhaps there was too much going on for the poor kicker, especially with Peter causing chaos. But we're expecting to see a lot more of him moving forward. Herbstreit's late dog, Ben, became an internet sensation over the last year as he regularly featured on Thursday Night Football and College GameDay broadcasts. The analyst documented his trips across the nation with Ben on social media, and fans fell in love with the 10-year-old golden retriever as he made himself at home by the desk or in the booth. Sadly, Ben passed away earlier this month after a battle with cancer, but that doesn't mean Herbstreit is on his own. He has now made his younger dog, Peter, his travel companion - and the puppy is already fitting right in.Ahead of the Big Ten Title game between Oregon and Penn State, hot dog-eating legend Joey Chestnut set a world record by consuming 21 pounds of shrimp. The famous shrimp cocktail from St. Elmo Steak House in Indianapolis was served at the event. Known for its legendary heat in the signature sauce, it's considered an achievement just to finish a single serving, according to Saturday Down South's Paul Harvey . The competitors and Chestnut took it to a whole other level. Before Saturday's competition, Chestnut's shrimp cocktail record was 18 pounds eaten in 18 minutes. "Last year I was being lazy, I only did 15 pounds, I got beat," Chestnut said on the Bob and Tom Show on Friday. "I'm felling good today, or hopefully, I will be ready tomorrow." The 41-year-old kicked off his notable career in 2007 at Nathan's Famous Fourth of July Hot Dog Eating Contest , where he defeated Takeru Kobayashi to bring the "Mustard Yellow Belt" back to the United States. That victory kicked off an eight-year title streak, during which he went undefeated until 2014, before regaining the title in 2016. He holds the world record for most hot dogs eaten, devouring 76 hot dogs and buns in 10 minutes. The 16-time champion was banned from Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest in 2024 for his sponsorship with Impossible Foods. He also holds 55 world records across 55 different foods, including pulled pork sandwiches, Taco Bell tacos, meat pies and asparagus, to name a few.
2,306 Shares in The Hartford Financial Services Group, Inc. (NYSE:HIG) Acquired by Oppenheimer & Co. Inc.Nothing's guaranteed, but Bucs need to win out to give themselves best shot to make the playoffs
NEW YORK (AP) — The man accused of fatally shooting the CEO of UnitedHealthcare pleaded not guilty on Monday to state murder and terror charges while his attorney complained that comments coming from New York’s mayor would make it tough to receive a fair trial. Luigi Mangione, 26, was shackled and seated in a Manhattan court when he leaned over to a microphone to enter his plea. The Manhattan district attorney charged him last week with multiple counts of murder, including murder as an act of terrorism . Mangione's initial appearance in New York’s state trial court was preempted by federal prosecutors bringing their own charges over the shooting. The federal charges could carry the possibility of the death penalty, while the maximum sentence for the state charges is life in prison without parole. Prosecutors have said the two cases will proceed on parallel tracks , with the state charges expected to go to trial first. One of Mangione’s attorneys told a judge that the “warring jurisdictions" had turned Mangione into a “human ping-pong ball” and that New York City Mayor Eric Adams and other government officials had made him a political pawn, robbing him of his rights as a defendant and tainting the jury pool. “I am very concerned about my client’s right to a fair trial,” lawyer Karen Friedman Agnifilo said. Adams and Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch stood among a throng of heavily armed officers last Thursday when Mangione was flown to a Manhattan heliport and escorted up a pier after being extradited from Pennsylvania. Friedman Agnifilo said police turned Mangione’s return to New York into a choreographed spectacle. She called out Adams' comment to a local TV station that he wanted to be there to look “him in the eye and say, ‘you carried out this terroristic act in my city.’” “He was on display for everyone to see in the biggest stage perp walk I’ve ever seen in my career. It was absolutely unnecessary,” she said. She also accused federal and state prosecutors of advancing conflicting legal theories, calling their approach confusing and highly unusual. In a statement, Adams spokesperson Kayla Mamelak Altus wrote: “Critics can say all they want, but showing up to support our law enforcement and sending the message to New Yorkers that violence and vitriol have no place in our city is who Mayor Eric Adams is to his core.” “The cold-blooded assassination of Brian Thompson — a father of two — and the terror it infused on the streets of New York City for days has since been sickeningly glorified, shining a spotlight on the darkest corners of the internet,” Mamelak Altus said. State trial court Judge Gregory Carro said he has little control over what happens outside the courtroom, but can guarantee Mangione will receive a fair trial. Authorities say Mangione gunned down Thompson as he was walking to an investor conference in midtown Manhattan on the morning of Dec 4. Mangione was arrested in a Pennsylvania McDonald’s after a five-day search, carrying a gun that matched the one used in the shooting and a fake ID, police said. He also was carrying a notebook expressing hostility toward the health insurance industry and especially wealthy executives, according to federal prosecutors. At a news conference last week, Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg said the application of the terrorism law reflected the severity of a “frightening, well-planned, targeted murder that was intended to cause shock and attention and intimidation.” “In its most basic terms, this was a killing that was intended to evoke terror,” he added. Mangione is being held in a Brooklyn federal jail alongside several other high-profile defendants, including Sean “Diddy” Combs and Sam Bankman-Fried. During his court appearance Monday, he smiled at times when talking with his attorneys and stretched his right hand after an officer removed his cuffs. Outside the courthouse, a few dozen supporters chanted, “Free Luigi,” over the blare of a trumpet. Natalie Monarrez, a 55-year-old Staten Island resident, said she joined the demonstration because she lost both her mother and her life savings as a result of denied insurance claims. “As extreme as it was, it jolted the conversation that we need to deal with this issue,” she said of the shooting. “Enough is enough, people are fed up.” An Ivy-league graduate from a prominent Maryland family, Mangione appeared to have cut himself off from family and friends in recent months. He posted frequently in online forums about his struggles with back pain. He was never a UnitedHealthcare client , according to the insurer. Thompson, a married father of two high-schoolers, had worked at the giant UnitedHealth Group for 20 years and became CEO of its insurance arm in 2021. The killing has prompted some to voice their resentment at U.S. health insurers, with Mangione serving as a stand-in for frustrations over coverage denials and hefty medical bills. It also has sent shockwaves through the corporate world , rattling executives who say they have received a spike in threats.

Beck was hit by outside linebacker Trey Moore, forcing a fumble recovered by Anthony Hill Jr., who then lost the ball on an errant attempt to extend the play with a lateral as time expired. Beck was one of the last players to return to the field following halftime. He was holding his helmet but did not warm up remained on the sideline as backup Gunner Stockton led the offense to its first touchdown on the Bulldogs’ first drive of the second half.

In an interview with Bloomberg TV, Siemiatkowski said he's "of the opinion that AI can already do all of the jobs that we as humans do." "It's just a question of how we apply it and use it," he said. Klarna is a payment service that offers consumers "buy now, pay later" options. According to its website, the company is connected with more than 575,000 retailers. The increased attention around AI has raised concerns about how it will affect careers and the workplace. A 2023 report by McKinsey & Company estimated that 12 million American workers will have to as AI technology develops. During the interview, Siemiatkowski said Klarna stopped hiring last year. "I think what we've done internally hasn't been reported as widely. We stopped hiring about a year ago, so we were 4,500 and now we're 3,500," Siemiatkowski said. "We have a natural attrition like every tech company. People stay about five years, so 20% leave every year. By not hiring, we're simply shrinking, right?" Siemiatkowski said his company has told employees that "what's going to happen is the total salary cost of Klarna is going to shrink, but part of the gain of that is going to be seen in your paycheck." Although Klarna's website is advertising open positions at the time of writing, a spokesperson told Business Insider the company is not "actively recruiting" to expand its workforce. Rather, Klarna is backfilling "some essential roles," primarily in engineering. Read the original article on
