Beginning Monday (Dec. 23), moviegoers across the United States will be able to pay for ticket and concession purchases at Regal theaters with the USDC stablecoin. The theater chain will offer this payment method at more than 400 Regal Cinemas in collaboration with Coinbase Wallet and Flexa , Coinbase said in a Thursday (Dec. 19) blog post . To promote the new offering, from Dec. 23 to Jan. 6, Regal will offer a 10% discount to those who pay with USDC on Base through Coinbase Wallet, according to the release. “We’re thrilled to bring onchain payments to a classic American pastime,” Ashlyn Turner , marketing and sales manager at Regal, said in the release. “For those already familiar with crypto, this is a chance to use digital dollars for a discounted night out. And for newcomers, the discount at Regal offers a glimpse into the benefits of onchain payments.” The onchain payment experience offered with Regal and Coinbase Wallet was built by Flexa, a company that offers commerce tools that help companies of all sizes accept crypto, according to the release. “Together, we’re creating a seamless way for moviegoers to save money while enjoying the benefits of digital currency in a secure and efficient manner ,” Flexa co-founder and CEO Daniel McCabe said in the release. Stablecoins , which are cryptocurrencies designed to maintain a stable value by being pegged to a reserve asset (usually a fiat currency like the U.S. dollar or euro), are emerging as a tool bridging the gap between traditional financial technology and the world of cryptocurrencies, PYMNTS reported in October. Their ability to offer the efficiency and transparency of blockchain technology while providing the familiarity and stability of fiat currencies is critical for integrating blockchain-based assets into mainstream financial systems. In an earlier, separate product launch, financial infrastructure firm Stripe authorized its merchants in the U.S. to receive USDC through their online checkout pages beginning Oct. 9. In the first 24 hours of offering this option, Stripe saw that customers from more than 70 countries made purchases with that form of payment. On Dec. 5, cryptocurrency payments solution firm Triple-A announced an integration with Coinbase, saying the integration is designed to let Coinbase users make payments to select merchants in the Triple-A network.‘More Ghanaian incompetence’ – Prof. Steve Hanke blasts Mahama’s plan to renegotiate IMF dealMatheus Cunha transfer price sky rockets as Liverpool learn £25m reality before January window

US agencies should use advanced technology to identify mysterious drones, Schumer saysResus Energy Founder and Managing Director Kishan Nanayakkara was recognised at the 7th annual Asia Pacific “50 Leading Lights: Kindness in Leadership campaign” that was released on the recent World Kindness Day. “As we celebrate the seventh year of our 50 Leading Lights: Kindness in Leadership campaign, it’s evident that kindness is much more than a feel-good gesture – it’s a strategic advantage. Both successful leaders and leading academics consistently affirm that kindness enhances wellbeing, fuels innovation, and drives productivity. It is, therefore, a great honour to announce the 2024 APAC Leading Lights list, in association with Asia Square. By leading with kindness, these remarkable men and women transform workplaces into thriving ecosystems where both people and businesses flourish. They are an inspiration to us all,” said 50 Leading Lights Founder – Kindness and Leadership Pinky Lilani, CBE DL. Incorporated in 2003, Resus Energy is an award-winning company having won multiple awards across numerous spheres for its work and governance and was amongst the first bracket of Colombo Stock Exchange (CSE) listed companies to adopt Global Reporting Initiative (GRI). Resus Energy’s initial foray into the power sector was through a joint development of a 100MW thermal power plant. In 2007, Resus began developing its first renewable energy project and became a pureplay renewable energy company in 2015. An equal opportunity employer, Resus operates in a strong “Environmental, Social and Governance” system, built around international best practices with “caring for people and the planet” as its ethos, and has been listed on the CSE since 2009. Currently Resus operates eight small hydropower and two ground mounted solar PV stations across five districts in Sri Lanka and dispatches over 70GWh annually to the national grid. Its third solar PV station is currently under construction. Most of Resus’ power stations are in extreme-rural hamlets. Apart from generating clean energy, Resus plays a pivotal role in protecting the natural environment, uplifting livelihoods of families, providing employment to villagers, including women in the surroundings of its power stations. “We make every effort to keep our carbon footprint low even as we expand our operations and ensure none of our development work or operations adversely affect the environment... and at the same time, our core values reflective across our policy framework, are instilled into our culture and way of life,” said Nanayakkara. “With our work ethos, we reckon that we contribute to sixteen out of seventeen UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and to Sri Lanka’s Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs), which Sri Lanka has pledged to achieve as a nation being a signatory to the Paris Agreement.” Nanayakkara who has Masters Degrees from the Universities of Cambridge and Birmingham and AMLP from Oxford, as well as being a Fellow of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales and the Chartered Institute of Management Accountants, is a worthy recipient of this award. In 2019, He was accorded the Most Outstanding Alumnus Award, AMLP, from the Saïd Business School, University of Oxford. This year’s judges included the Panel Chair and British High Commissioner to Australia Vicki Treadell, IHS Markit Asia Pacific Account Management team Former Partner and Senior Vice President Dr. Bo Zhou, Piramal Industries Vice Chairman Dr. Swati Piramal, Dole Packaged Foods Global Chief Marketing Officer Rupen Desai and Blackrock Real Assets Managing Director Hugh Andrew.

Peter Lynch's Timeless Investment Rules: 'You Can Always Lose What You Have Invested, Even if a Stock Is Cheap'Tai'Reon Joseph scores 28 off the bench to help UTSA defeat North Dakota 95-85Bengaluru, Dec 28 (PTI) Karnataka Minister Priyank Kharge on Saturday said he is in favour of an independent and free probe by an agency under the state's Home Department into the alleged suicide of a contractor in Bidar earlier this week. The contractor left behind a seven-page note in which he made allegations against a person, said to be his associate. Accusing the BJP of politicising the issue, as it has sought his removal from the ministry and his arrest in connection with the case, the Rural Development and Panchayat Raj Minister clarified that neither he, nor his department, nor the government is involved in any way. "While the contractor is suggesting one thing, the accused have also made complaints regarding another aspect of the entire incident. I’m very clear in saying that there should be an independent and free probe. I have personally requested the Home Minister for an independent investigative agency within the Home Department to investigate the matter," Kharge said. Speaking to reporters, he said that it is quite natural for the BJP to believe they have found something against him in the case, and pointed out that the party has been trying to get his resignation on frivolous grounds for a year. "I’m making it clear that neither I, nor my department, nor the government is involved in all these activities," he added. Sachin Monappa Panchal, a 26-year-old contractor, ended his life by falling under a train on Thursday, leaving behind a suicide note alleging that Raju Kapanur, a close associate of Kharge, had issued death threats demanding Rs 1 crore for awarding a contract. The note also mentioned the names of seven others who were accused of cheating by not awarding him a contract, despite taking a Rs 15 lakh bribe. The contractor alleged that they threatened to kill him if he failed to pay the Rs 1 crore. Hitting out at Kharge and the Congress government over the case, Leader of Opposition in the Legislative Council Chalavadi Narayanaswamy on Saturday demanded that Kharge be removed from his ministerial post and arrested immediately. He also called for Kharge to fully cooperate with the investigation, warning that BJP leaders and workers would launch a fierce agitation if he did not. Responding to a question about the BJP’s demand for his arrest, Kharge questioned "On what grounds?" and claimed the opposition party doesn’t understand the law. "BJP does not understand the law. Am I an accused? Eight people have been named as accused. Does the BJP know what the law of the land is? On what basis are they asking for my arrest? Is my name there for abetment to suicide? These people (BJP) just want to do politics. Their intention is very clear—they want to hide their internal problems," he said. Claiming that Priyank Kharge has become BJP leaders' "favourite dish on their menu," and hence they repeatedly target him, the Minister said it is because of his strong ideological stance, which goes against the BJP's political agenda. "So it is quite natural that they always blame me. Tell me one charge that they have been able to prove against me. They don’t come with facts, documents, and proof. While showing me one thing that I have accused the BJP of without documents or proof. They always do hit-and-run, this is also a hit-and-run. I dare them to prove it," he said. Noting that eight people have been named as accused in the case, Kharge said that one of them is a Congress Kalaburagi corporator's brother. "It is a fact that I cannot deny, but that doesn’t mean that I’m involved." "The accused are saying that there was a business transaction and they wanted money for the Earnest Money Deposit (EMD). There was a transfer of money from the bank, which is a legal transaction, and there is no ambiguity about the said money transfer. While the contractor has accused eight people, including his seniors in the private firm, of failing to get him some contracts... let the truth come out in the investigation," he said. Responding to the BJP’s demand for his resignation, Kharge hit back, saying that he was not here to cater to the BJP's whims and fancies and that they are the last people who should lecture on corruption. Everybody knows what they (BJP) did. How many contractors committed suicide during their tenure, naming the then Ministers and MLAs?" he said. BJP leaders, including Narayanaswamy, have alleged that Kalaburagi district has become a "republic of Kalaburagi," where the administration and police function only according to what Kharge says. Responding to this, the Minister said, "Yes, it is a republic of Kalaburagi for development, unlike the Ballari republic that the BJP ran while they were in power." Kharge hails from Kalaburagi and serves as the district in-charge Minister there. To a question about Congress demanding the resignation of K S Eshwarappa as a Minister when BJP was in power following a contractor’s suicide with a death note, Kharge said, "The Eshwarappa case is entirely different from this suicide case. In that case, Eshwarappa was himself an accused. He was named in that case...." (This story has not been edited by THE WEEK and is auto-generated from PTI)

Qatar tribune dpa Kiev Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has taken stock of Russia’s attacks against his country over the past seven days, counting hundreds of drones, bombs and missiles largely targeting energy infrastructure. “In total, Russia has used more than 370 attack drones, around 280 guided glide bombs and 80 missiles of various types against Ukraine this week,” Zelensky wrote on Facebook. “Even on Christmas night, the terrorists carried out a massive airstrike.” The Russian military’s attacks were primarily directed against energy infrastructure in Ukraine, Zelensky noted, adding that residential buildings were also attacked and damaged, apparently at random, with several people being killed. According to the UK’s Ministry of Defence, Russia is using a modified tactic in its missile and drone attacks on Ukraine. Russia has now most likely decided to allow more time to pass between attacks in order to build up stocks, the ministry wrote on X, and hopes that fewer but larger waves of attacks can inflict more damage than more frequent, smaller attacks. With these combined mass attacks, the Russian military aims to overwhelm the Ukrainian air defence.
