The wife of NHL star Johnny Gaudreau 's brother Matthew Gaudreau has given birth to their first baby, four months after the siblings were killed in a road accident . Madeline Gaudreau shared Dec. 29 that their son had arrived. " Tripp Matthew ," she wrote on Instagram , alongside a photo of herself holding the newborn's hand. "Mommy & Daddy’s world." Matthew's wife had announced her pregnancy on social media in June, two months before her husband, a minor league hockey player, and Johnny were fatally struck by a Jeep driver while riding their bikes in New Jersey . "He was born to be a dad," Madeline had said about Matthew at the brothers' memorial service in September. "The moment we found out about our son Tripp, it consumed his every day. He was downloading apps, ordering books, finding the best diaper brand, making sure I had the best vitamins and asking for tips from John." She continued, "I will never forget the tears he had in his eyes when he first heard Tripp’s heartbeat." Madeline gave birth to baby Tripp three weeks after Matthew's 30th birthday. "Happy Birthday to the best husband and father," she wrote on her Instagram Dec. 5. "The moment I met you I instantly knew you were the one. As I celebrate you today (and everyday ) I am more and more in love with you and honored to be your wife." Madeline added, "John better have friends playing all day, double stuff Oreos and a nice glass of whiskey for you. I love you and can’t wait to kiss your face again." A post shared by Madeline Gaudreau (@mogaudreau) In October, Madeline shared photos from her baby shower , which included blue balloons, including one spelling out "Baby Tripp." Among the guests was Johnny's wife Meredith Gaudreau , who had announced her pregnancy with her and the Columbus Blue Jackets left winger's third child at the siblings' memorial. Also in October, the brothers' wives, parents and other family members attended the team's special tribute to the brothers at their season opening game. As a banner bearing Johnny's name and jersey number, 13, was raised, his and Meredith's daughter Noa , 2, was seen pointing up at the rafters at Columbus’ Nationwide Arena. "Thank you to our entire Columbus Blue Jackets family for such a beautiful night celebrating our favorite guy," Meredith, who also shares son Johnny , 10 months, with her late husband, wrote on Instagram after the game. "NWA was our second home as a family and a place I still feel close to John in. I could see in Noa's eyes that she can feel it too."
Proper No 12 whiskey — which he sold in 2023 but remains a spokesperson for — and his Forged Irish Stout products are stocked by supermarkets and off-licences Conor McGregor Rape Crisis Network Ireland (RCNI) is urging retailers to stop selling Conor McGregor's stout and whiskey products after a civil court jury found him liable last week for the assault of Nikita Hand. Clíona Saidléar, RCNI executive director, said she believed the €250,000 damages awarded to Nikita Hand was a "drop in the ocean” for a man of McGregor's wealth. "The companies making money from his alcohol and other products need to look at whether they want to align themselves with a man found by a civil jury to have sexually assaulted a woman,” she said. "They need to stop promoting him and distance themselves... €250,000 won't dent his finances, but the public can play a role here in expressing disapproval for anyone that tries make money with a man who engaged in that despicable behaviour.” Proper No 12 whiskey — which he sold in 2023 but remains a spokesperson for — and his Forged Irish Stout products are stocked by supermarkets and off-licences. During the three-week civil case, McGregor posted Instagram pictures of himself with this Forged Irish Stout in a EuroSpar in the North. He said over six million cans have been sold. Earlier this year, the Advertising Standards Authority (ASAI) upheld a complaint that Forged Irish Stout breached advertising rules on sexualised content. In an Instagram post, there was "significant emphasis through the use of camera angles, on the female models' cleavages and bottoms, and in some cases solely on these areas”. The ASAI said there was no creative reason for this "other than to objectify the female models”. It found this was "an irresponsible manner in which to depict women”.
Archer Aviation ( ACHR 15.14% ) stock posted explosive gains in Tuesday's trading, which saw the market close at 1 p.m. for the Christmas Eve holiday. The company's share price ended the abbreviated daily trading session up 15.1%. Archer Aviation surged today following some big news in the defense industry. According to a report from The Financial Times , Palantir ( PLTR 2.09% ) is teaming up with defense-tech innovator Anduril to form a new consortium that aims to make big waves in the defense space -- and it could have implications for Archer. Are Palantir and Anduril about to shake up the defense industry? Palantir and Anduril are reportedly aiming to create a new power block in the defense industry. The FT 's report says the two companies are talking to businesses including OpenAI, SpaceX, Scale AI, and Saronic to form a defense consortium that aims to challenge industry stalwarts, including RTX , Lockheed Martin , and Boeing . Palantir and Anduril are innovation-focused players in the defense industry, with the former company being a leader in artificial intelligence ( AI ) software and the latter working on unmanned vehicles and robotics. The list of companies that the two partners are said to be approaching for their consortium suggests they're aiming to build a network of disruptive, next-gen tech players with the ability to outcompete current industry leaders in emerging categories. Archer Aviation investors are understandably excited. What comes next for Archer Aviation stock? On Dec. 12, Archer published a press release announcing that it had entered a partnership with Anduril to develop flying electric vehicles for the defense industry. Anduril has already won U.S. defense contracts, and the team-up has the potential to be a powerful catalyst for Archer. While Archer wasn't specifically named as a potential partner approached for the proposed defense consortium with Palantir, it seemingly makes for a natural candidate. Archer Aviation recently said that it expects to begin production at its Georgia plant in the beginning of 2025, and CEO Adam Goldstein has said he expects commercial flights to begin next year. With a promising outlook on the defense front and the potential for commercial flights to kick off next year, Archer stock could keep rallying.Game-Changer Alert!

Drew Lock likely to start at QB for the Giants against the Colts on Sunday
Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce and his girlfriend Taylor Swift are one of, if not the most high-profile couple in professional sports right now. Anytime the two go anywhere together publicly, it draws a crowd — as does Swift’s solo entrances at Arrowhead Stadium when she shows up to support Kelce when he plays. But just because Kelce and Swift are in the limelight seemingly all the time, it doesn’t mean they’re exempt from some of the team rules the Chiefs have implemented for all of their players leading up to game days. Chariah Gordon, the fiancée of Chiefs receiver Mecole Hardman, recently told People.com that there are eight rules the team has for all of its players to follow, but there are three in particular that apply to Kelce and Swift’s relationship specifically. The first is an 11 p.m. curfew for all players the night before; no exceptions. The NFL CBA states that players can be penalized for curfew violations, which fall under “conduct detrimental to the team.” The second rule is that all significant others, even wives, must stay in separate rooms the night before games. While they are allowed to stay in the same hotel, players have to sleep solo — something Gordon said the team is really strict about. The third rule is that all players must get directly onto the team plane after away games and no significant others are allowed to tag along. Robert Deutsch-Imagn Images “You're more than welcome to go to a game and you can see them after, and then they're getting right back on the flight and they're coming right back home that night,” Jayla Thornton-Cook, wife to Chiefs safety Bryan Cook told People. Swift doesn’t have to worry much about that last one as she’s only attended home games this season due to security concerns at away stadiums due to a couple of incidents over the summer. Swift had to cancel a few of her “Eras Tour” shows in Austria before the season started due to a terrorist plot that she was allegedly the target of. She also had a stalker who was arrested in Germany in July after social media threats were made by him toward her and Kelce.

Share Tweet Share Share Email The price of Ethereum (ETH) is currently facing hurdles at $3,400, making traders wonder if it will keep its upward trend or begin to fall back. Meanwhile, Cardano (ADA) is showing signs of a potential dip that could turn into a chance for buyers, with experts looking toward a possible surge in the future. As Ethereum and Cardano deal with their own market highs and lows, BlockDAG (BDAG) is making strides in shaping the future of crypto through innovation and a strong community. Having collected nearly $150 million by raising $20 million in the last 48 hours, BlockDAG is quickly moving toward its $600 million goal. Ethereum Confronts $3,400 Barrier Despite Optimism Ethereum remains in the spotlight, staying above the $3,000 mark despite some fluctuations. It reached a high of $3,400 but has encountered resistance at $3,400, which may limit its gains. Now priced at $3,130, Ethereum’s trends are still over the 21-day moving average, hinting at a positive long-term outlook. However, short-term signs call for caution as prices dip under moving averages on the 4-hour chart. If Ethereum can’t sustain the $3,000 level, it might drop to the $2,800 support or even to the $2,680 Fibonacci level. Cardano Update: ADA Dips 5%, Upswing Possible? Recent updates on Cardano suggest a price pullback to the $0.45-$0.50 range, creating a good accumulation point. Currently at $0.75 after a peak of $0.81, ADA has dropped by 5%. Experts think this decline might lead to a bullish trend with a target of $1.20. On-chain data shows a robust profit-to-loss ratio, indicating profits among holders. Nonetheless, if ADA can’t hold its key supports, it might decline further. BlockDAG Nears $600M Goal with $150M Raised in Presale BlockDAG’s booming popularity isn’t by chance. It capitalizes on DAG technology and innovative mining solutions, gaining worldwide attention with its community and presale feats. As the crypto bull run kicked off, BlockDAG presale saw a massive inflow from crypto whales who pumped $50 million within record time. In the last 48 hours alone, the presale raised $20 million. Now stading at $150 million with over 16.4 billion BDAG coins sold, BlockDAG stands as a top presale . It recently sold more than 14K miners, pushing its total sales over $5.7 million in a single day. This success showcases the excitement and confidence in its potential. Prominent personalities like @TheDonOfApes have praised BlockDAG, noting its edge over other Layer 1s like Kaspa, and branding it a top market opportunity. At the heart of BlockDAG’s rapid ascent is its presale structure that only sees prices climbing, starting at $0.001 in batch 1 to $0.0234 in batch 26—a dramatic 2240% surge. This model rewards early supporters and creates urgency as the price escalates. As the presale pushes through each batch, experts foresee BlockDAG hitting a $600 million cap soon. With demand soaring, the chance to join early is dwindling quickly. For those dreaming of the wealth giants like Bitcoin have created, BlockDAG’s presale is shouting out a similar opportunity for the quick movers! In Summary! The market is a mix of different trends. Ethereum faces resistance at $3,400, testing its bullish stance. Conversely, Cardano offers an entry point that might lead to significant growth. Yet, BlockDAG outpaces its rivals as the biggest and most sought-after presale ever. With $150 million gathered and aiming for a $600 million cap, its unique pricing model promises steady growth and increasing demand. The opportunity to enter BlockDAG’s presale is closing fast, and once the $600 million goal is reached, the benefits of early participation will disappear—making it essential to act swiftly.
