Only one more half stands between Boston College and the win they were favored to collect coming into this afternoon. They have jumped out to a quick 38-28 lead against FDU. If Boston College keeps playing like this, they'll bump their record up to 8-5 in no time. On the other hand, FDU will have to make due with a 4-11 record unless they turn things around (and fast). FDU Knights @ Boston College Eagles Current Records: FDU 4-10, Boston College 7-5 When: Saturday, December 28, 2024 at 4 p.m. ET Where: Silvio O. Conte Forum -- Chestnut Hill, Massachusetts TV: ACC Network Follow: CBS Sports App Online Streaming: Catch select College Basketball matches on Fubo (Try for free. Regional restrictions may apply.) The Boston College Eagles' homestand will continue as they prepare to take on the FDU Knights at 4:00 p.m. ET on Saturday at Silvio O. Conte Forum. The Eagles have been getting the ball to fall more lately as they've increased their point totals each of their last three games. There's no need to mince words: Boston College lost to SMU on Saturday, and Boston College lost bad. The score wound up at 103-77. Despite the defeat, Boston College had strong showings from Dion Brown, who went 6 for 10 en route to 20 points, and Donald Hand Jr., who had 22 points along with five rebounds. Brown is trending in the right direction considering he's improved his point production for four straight games. Even though they lost, Boston College smashed the offensive glass and finished the game with 20 offensive rebounds. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now pulled down at least ten offensive rebounds in four consecutive games. Meanwhile, FDU's recent rough patch got a bit rougher on Saturday after their third straight loss. They took a 74-60 hit to the loss column at the hands of Minnesota. FDU's defeat shouldn't obscure the performances of Jo'El Emanuel, who dropped a double-double on 14 points and 11 rebounds, and Ahmed Barba-Bey, who went 5 for 9 en route to 15 points. Barba-Bey had some trouble finding his footing against La Salle last Wednesday, so this was a nice turnaround. Boston College has not been sharp recently as the team has lost four of their last five matches, which put a noticeable dent in their 7-5 record this season. As for FDU, their loss dropped their record down to 4-10. Saturday's contest is shaping up to be a scrappy matchup: Boston College has been smashing the glass this season, having averaged 37.6 rebounds per game. It's a different story for FDU, though, as they've been averaging only 33.3. Given Boston College's sizable advantage in that area, FDU will need to find a way to close that gap. Looking ahead, Boston College is the favorite in this one, as the experts expect to see them win by 14.5 points. Bettors picking them against the spread have some confidence (to put it mildly), as the team is sitting on a four-game streak of failing to cover when playing at home. Boston College is a big 14.5-point favorite against FDU, according to the latest college basketball odds . The oddsmakers had a good feel for the line for this one, as the game opened with the Eagles as a 13.5-point favorite. The over/under is 151.5 points.

Economist David Rosenberg is rethinking his bearish stance amid this year's huge stock rally. Rosenberg said extreme stock market valuations may be justified given AI's economic potential. Investors are extending their valuation outlook beyond one year, and Rosenberg is following suit. Economist and longtime market bear David Rosenberg is coming around after this year's blistering stock market rally. While he says his updated view doesn't amount to "throwing in the towel," he admits that the technology-fueled AI boom is requiring him to reframe his thinking on the broader stock market. "It's high time for me to stop pontificating on all the reasons why the U.S. stock market is crazily overvalued and all the reasons to be bearish based on all the variables I have relied on in the past," Rosenberg wrote to his clients on Thursday. Rosenberg has long relied on today's stock market valuations relative to the past to highlight just how historically extreme the stock market is currently valued. And he's not wrong. Longtime stock bull Ed Yardeni highlighted five charts this week that showed that valuations have been stretched to historical extremes. However, according to Rosenberg, the extreme valuations may actually be warranted if AI can unleash a wave of productivity upon the economy. This idea was echoed by BlackRock in its 2025 outlook, which argued that comparing today's market valuations to those of the past is "apples to oranges" given the profound shift in America's tech-led economy. Perhaps more importantly, the promise of AI is ultimately leading investors to extend their time horizons beyond the traditional one-year outlook. "Investors are clearly looking out beyond one year across an entire gamut of indicators and developments, so the classic way we look at valuations may not be appropriate today," Rosenberg said. Rosenberg added that even if the stock market is in a bubble, it may not be apparent for years to come, similar to the internet bubble that began to form in the mid-1990s before ultimately popping in 2000. With profits booming for technology companies like Nvidia, the exuberance gripping investors doesn't appear to be extreme or unsustainable. "A bear market only ensues if and when these expectations prove to have been excessive. That day may well come, but Mr. Market has been saying for some time: 'not quite yet,'" Rosenberg said. A shift in the Federal Reserve's interest rate policy could also send markets lower, but that doesn't seem to be in the cards in the near term. Going forward, Rosenberg said he is keeping a more open mind toward the idea that the stock market bull rally could "go further than anyone thinks." "The way to redress the lament of a bear is to keep an open mind as we head into 2025 and learn from the mistakes of the past year," Rosenberg said.LAS VEGAS — Players Era Festival organizers have done what so many other have tried — bet their fortunes in this city that a big payoff is coming. Such bet are usually bad ones, which is why so many massive casino-resorts have been built on Las Vegas Boulevard. But it doesn't mean the organizers are wrong. They're counting on the minimum of $1 million in guaranteed name, image and likeness money that will go to each of the eight teams competing in the neutral-site tournament that begins Tuesday will create a precedent for other such events. EverWonder Studios CEO Ian Orefice, who co-founded Players with former AND1 CEO Seth Berger, compared this event to last year's inaugural NBA In-Season Tournament that played its semifinals and final in Las Vegas by saying it "did really well to reinvigorate the fan base at the beginning of the year." "We're excited that we're able to really change the paradigm in college basketball on the economics," Orefice said. "But for us, it's about the long term. How do we use the momentum that is launching with the 2024 Players Era Festival and be the catalyst not to change one event, but to change college basketball for the future." Orefice and Berger didn't disclose financial details, but said the event will come close to breaking even this year and that revenue is in eight figures. Orefice said the bulk of the revenue will come from relationships with MGM, TNT Sports and Publicis Sport & Entertainment as well as sponsors that will be announced later. Both organizers said they are so bullish on the tournament's prospects that they already are planning ahead. Money made from this year's event, Orefice said, goes right back into the company. "We're really in this for the long haul," Orefice said. "So we're not looking at it on a one-year basis." Rick Giles is president of the Gazelle Group, which also operates several similar events, including the College Basketball Invitational. He was skeptical the financial numbers would work. Giles said in addition to more than $8 million going to the players, there were other expenses such as the guarantees to the teams. He said he didn't know if the tournament would make up the difference with ticket sales, broadcast rights and sponsorship money. The top bowl of the MGM Grand Garden Arena will be curtained off. "The math is highly challenging," Giles said. "Attendance and ticket revenues are not going to come anywhere close to covering that. They haven't announced any sponsors that I'm aware of. So it all sort of rests with their media deal with Turner and how much capital they want to commit to it to get these players paid." David Carter, a University of Southern California adjunct professor who also runs the Sports Business Group consultancy, said even if the Players isn't a financial success this year, the question is whether there will be enough interest to move forward. "If there is bandwidth for another tournament and if the TV or the streaming ratings are going to be there and people are going to want to attend and companies are going to want to sponsor, then, yeah, it's probably going to work," Carter said. "But it may take them time to gain that traction." Both founders said they initially were met with skepticism about putting together such an event, especially from teams they were interested in inviting. Houston was the first school to commit, first offering an oral pledge early in the year and then signing a contract in April. That created momentum for others to join, and including the No. 6 Cougars, half the field is ranked. "We have the relationships to operate a great event," Berger said. "We had to get coaches over those hurdles, and once they knew that we were real, schools got on board really quickly." The founders worked with the NCAA to make sure the tournament abided by that organization's rules, so players must appear at ancillary events in order to receive NIL money. Strict pay for play is not allowed, though there are incentives for performance. The champion, for example, will receive $1.5 million in NIL money. Now the pressure is on to pull off the event and not create the kind of headlines that can dog it for years to come. "I think everybody in the marketplace is watching what's going to happen (this) week and, more importantly, what happens afterwards," Giles said. "Do the players get paid on a timely basis? And if they do, that means that Turner or somebody has paid way more than the market dictates? And the question will be: Can that continue?" CREIGHTON: P oint guard Steven Ashworth likely won’t play in the No. 21 Bluejays’ game against San Diego State in the Players Era Festival in Las Vegas. Ashworth sprained his right ankle late in a loss to Nebraska on Friday and coach Greg McDermott said afterward he didn’t know how long he would be out.New Delhi: The ministry of electronics and IT ( MeitY ) has asked Meta to prevent WhatsApp-originated pesky messages and calls, many of which lead to financial frauds. "We have taken it (scams issue) up with Meta. This is a continuous process. They (scamsters) will keep discovering newer ways, making people worry," MeitY secretary S Krishnan told ET. Lately, there has been a rampant misuse of WhatsApp, a popular instant messaging (IM) and voice-over-IP (VoIP) service provider, by scamsters for sharing dubious content, which led to users being conned. The telecom regulator had sought MeitY's intervention to check financial frauds perpetrated through OTT platforms, since such apps are regulators under the IT Act and don't fall under the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (Trai). Krishnan further said the government is in a regular dialogue with stakeholders particularly Meta and added that users also need to be cautious and raise complaints even in the case of mobile app WhatsApp. "If there is some wrong content, there is a process. The IT rules require these companies to have a grievance officer with whom users can raise issues. They can raise it either within the app or outside. In case, the issue is not dealt with, there is also a grievance appellate committee," said Krishnan.

Why is gas turbine fuel adaptable? Features and Applications 12-20-2024 07:04 PM CET | Associations & Organizations Press release from: ABNewswire Benefits of Gas Turbine [ https://www.alfyp.com/products/ ] Fuel Adaptable Technology Fuel adaptability is a key factor for the future sustainability of gas turbines. In recent years, there has been a surge in research and development activities to improve the fuel flexibility of gas turbines, allowing them to operate on a variety of fuels. In this article, we will explore why gas turbine fuel adaptability is essential and the role of advanced materials in achieving this adaptability. For many years, gas turbines have been primarily fueled by natural gas, which is a clean and efficient fuel. However, the supply and demand scenario for natural gas has created a need for alternative fuels, such as biofuels and synthetic gases. Advanced gas turbine systems must be able to operate on multiple fuels to maintain their competitiveness in the energy market. Gas turbine fuel adaptability can be achieved through several strategies. Firstly, fuels with different compositions and properties can be pre-mixed to create a homogeneous mixture that ensures optimal performance of the turbine. Secondly, advanced coatings and materials can be used to protect the turbine components from the negative impact of fuel impurities and reactive species. Finally, novel fuel injection and combustion strategies can be implemented to enhance the combustion efficiency while minimizing harmful emissions. The Role of Advanced Material in Gas Turbine Fuel Adaptability Advanced materials play a significant role in gas turbine fuel adaptability. Metallic alloys with high mechanical strength and excellent corrosion resistance are essential for developing turbine components that can withstand various fuels. In addition, coatings based on advanced ceramics and composite materials provide excellent protection against fuel-borne corrosion and erosion. Moreover, nanomaterials and nanotechnology have opened up new avenues for enhancing the performance of gas turbines. Nanoparticles can be added to the fuel to improve its viscosity and density, resulting in more uniform mixing and improved atomization characteristics. This technology has the potential to significantly improve the efficiency and reliability of gas turbines operating on alternative fuels. In conclusion, gas turbine fuel adaptability is essential for enhancing the sustainability and competitiveness of these machines in the energy market. Advanced materials and nanotechnology provide innovative solutions for achieving this adaptability while ensuring high performance and reliability. The development of fuel-flexible gas turbines will contribute significantly to meeting the global energy demand and reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

Crypto enthusiasts are prepared to wait for the bull market, which they expect to return in 2025, but they are already looking for the winners among the tokens that may flourish. The next wave of optimism in the cryptocurrency markets is likely to be led by these assets that wield an appeal for strength, creativity, and growth. Some of the best picks include Rexas Finance (RXS), Ripple (XRP), Solana (SOL), Cardano (ADA), and Sui (SUI). Each of these projects has distinct attributes, but Rexas Finance is becoming a favorite for investment opportunities with large ROI. Rexas Finance (RXS): A Future Powerhouse in DeFi and RWA Tokenization Currently, in Stage 9, the token is priced at just $0.125, with over $22.3 million raised as of this writing. This impressive performance has captured the attention of investors worldwide, highlighting the growing demand for RXS tokens. Even when contacted, the development team purposefully shunned venture capital (VC) investment to keep the people at the center of this revolutionary movement. This decision emphasizes the project's aim of empowering individuals rather than prioritizing institutional interests. The RXS is an ERC-20 token designed for Real World Asset RWA asset tokenization, an unprecedented method of intertwining blockchain technology with physical assets such as real estate, art, and IP. Unlike many tokens with speculative value, Rexas Finance has already established strong fundamentals. Listed on CoinMarketCap, RXS is designed to deliver long-term value by making high-value investments accessible to retail investors. Its CertiK audit further strengthens its credibility and ensures that investors can trust the project's infrastructure. Currently, RXS remains undervalued compared to major tokens like Ripple and Solana, but its market valuation is poised to explode once it enters the public market. With nearly all presale stages almost sold out earlier than expected and a projected $0.20 listing price, early buyers are in a prime position to reap substantial rewards. Ripple (XRP): The Titan of Cross-Border Transactions With its focus on developing solutions for cross-border payments, Ripple has established itself as a provider of revolutionary services that can be presented as fast and economical without the help of intermediaries using blockchain technology. The XRP token acts as a bridge currency, enabling and reducing the cost of financial institutions worldwide. As it stands, Ripple is developing steadily in the industry because several regulatory constraints do not prevent the company from signing contracts with foreign payments and banking institutions. As demand for efficient cross-border payments increases, Ripple remains a significant player. Rexas Finance, which draws on the interest of retail investors for its broader possibilities and diversity, has little in common with XRP since it focuses heavily on institutional adoption, which makes RXS a better option. Solana: The Speed and Scalability Leader Known for its rapid transaction capabilities and cost efficiency, Solana is driven by a proof-of-history consensus mechanism. This feature allows it to process numerous transactions per second, making it optimal for DeFi, gaming, and NFTs. Solana’s high performance at reduced costs makes it attractive to developers and investors alike. According to coinmarketcap, Solana's market cap value is $122.64 billion as of this writing. Solana’s expanding ecosystem makes it an attractive choice for long-term growth, but it still lacks the disruptive edge that Rexas Finance brings with its RWA tokenization model. Cardano: The Smart Contract Innovator Another player which is in the top 10 and focuses on scalability and sustainability is Cardano (ADA). As of this writing, According to coinmarketcap, Cardano has the market capitalization exceeding $43.2 billion dollars. Cardano as a green and sustainable blockchain implements its features through its proof-of-stake consensus mechanism. This green blockchain is able to cut down energy usage on a much larger scale than the conventional blockchains. Founded on peer-reviewed research and strict scientific standards, Cardano enables the creation of decentralized applications (dApps) and smart contracts. It prioritizes governance and environmental sustainability, continually advancing its ecosystem. Sui: The New Kid on the Blockchain Although the Sui (SUI) cryptocurrency is relatively new to the market, it has rapidly become well known due to its unique concepts of decentralized applications and smart contracts. Its market valuation, which is about $11 billion as of this writing, as per coin market cap, strengthens this fact. A distinctive parallel processing approach of the Sui blockchain facilitates high throughput and low latency, which makes the blockchain an ideal candidate for gaming, NFTs, and other use cases that require immense resources. Sui presents possibilities for a meteoric rise, but its noteworthy lack of presence in this market means that it has a long way to go before reaching the heights of competition like Rexas Finance. Why Rexas Finance (RXS) Stands Out While all these tokens have impressive qualities, Rexas Finance has the clearest edge heading into the next bull market. Its presale success, coupled with its focus on real-world asset tokenization, positions it as a leader in DeFi innovation. Unlike Ripple’s institutional focus or Solana’s technological limitations, Rexas Finance combines accessibility, scalability, and utility into a single compelling package. Furthermore, the $1 million giveaway by Rexas Finance makes everything even more fun, as 20 investors are guaranteed to each win $50,000 worth of RXS tokens. This initiative highlights the team’s devotion to community growth and rewards for early adopters. Conclusion: The Next Bull Run’s Biggest Winners An explosive January 2025 is coming for the crypto market. Ripple, Solana, Cardano, and Sui are promising gains, but Rexas Finance is the clear winner for a potentially revolutionary investment. With a presale price of just $0.125, an innovative focus on RWA tokenization, and a proven ability to attract investment, Rexas Finance is more than just another altcoin—it’s the future of decentralized finance. For those seeking a token that could redefine the crypto landscape, RXS is the clear choice.

It's an aphorism that, over the ages, India has not done enough to market her strengths. We have been rather weak at propagating our achievements. In his well-researched book 'The Golden Road', William Dalrymple writes that in the millennium from 250 BC to 1200 AD, Indian art, technology, astronomy, music, literature and mathematics blazed a trail across the world -- a veritable Golden Road that stretched from the Red Sea to the Pacific. India's ideas transformed the world. However, "the centrality of the Indian subcontinent has been obscured by the Sinocentric concept of the Silk Road. In contrast, China has been very good at telling its story." In the modern era, we should avoid the same pitfall. As a nation, we tend to be over critical to the extent of indulging in self-destructive behaviour. While it is imperative to undertake periodic analyses and effect improvements, we should be careful not to destroy the credibility of our institutions and statutory frameworks. In recent years, India has made efforts to market its digital public infrastructure. Aadhaar, UPI, COWIN, GEM and similar other digital platforms have the potential to become global public goods . Significant diplomatic and economic benefits can be reaped from this. It's a good beginning. In this context, we should consider advertising our election management system to the world. We can teach a thing or two to some advanced western democracies. It's not just about the staggering scale. Polling stations are set up in the remotest corners -- from the hamlets in the upper reaches of the Himalayas to the Sundarbans delta. We conduct elections on a massive scale in a near flawless fashion. However, it's the integrity and robustness of the process that is indeed commendable. Under the leadership of successive CECs and Election Commissioners, this has been strengthened. The credit also goes to successive elected governments for having by and large eschewed the temptation to meddle with the system. One must applaud the founding fathers of the Constitution for putting in place the Election Commission and laying down provisions to ensure it acts independently. These provisions are enshrined in Article 324, where it's stipulated that CECs can be removed only through impeachment and that their terms of service can't be adversely altered during incumbency.

From redistricting to voter registration to setting up polling booths and counting, the entire process is controlled by the elected governments of the individual states. Gerrymandering is a term that describes how the ruling dispensation in each state rearranges Congressional district boundaries to maximise their advantages in the first past the post system. The chaos resulting from different rules and politically controlled processes were on full global display during the 2016 and 2020 presidential elections. In India, delimitation of parliamentary and state assembly constituencies is required to be carried out as per Articles 82 and 170 of the Constitution, under law to be enacted by Parliament. The Parliament has been enacting Delimitation Acts under which Delimitation Commissions, headed by retired Supreme Court judges, carried out the exercise. Same goes for preparation of electoral rolls and setting up of polling stations. Recognised political parties are notified about revision of electoral rolls. Electoral registration officers have to furnish the list of claims, objections, the draft and final lists to the registered parties. Political parties have to be notified about every change in location of a polling station. All these processes are conducted under ECI's supervision. There is no role for the central or state governments. District Collectors, who are designated as the District Election Officers (DEO), function directly under the ECI for these purposes. During the actual conduct of polling and counting, the ECI virtually takes control of the district administration, the DEOs, Returning Officers and their subordinates. It effects transfers of poll-related officers, including police officers. ECI appoints observers for each constituency who report directly to it. Each step is conducted under the supervision of representatives of political parties and candidates. This has always been the case -- both when ballot boxes were used and now with EVMs. EVMs and VVPATS to be used at different polling stations are randomised in the presence of representatives of political parties and for a second time, in the presence of candidates. They are then dispatched in the presence of candidates and their representatives are invited to put signatures on the seals of EVMs and VVPATs. Polling agents of candidates are present at each polling station. They are allowed to inspect the ballot boxes and sign the seals of EVMs and VVPATS before and after polling. Polling agents can put their signatures on Form 17C which gives an account of the number of votes cast. They can accompany the vehicles transporting EVMs to strong rooms. These rooms are sealed and opened in the presence of candidates. Counting of votes takes place in the presence of candidates and they can have their agents at each counting table. They can verify the tally for each EVM and match them with Form 17C. Each step is video graphed. It's difficult to find such an elaborate and foolproof system anywhere in the world. We will do well to market our election management system to developing and even some developed countries whose election processes leave much to be desired. It's an opportunity waiting to be harnessed. At the very least, let's not denigrate our system! (You can now subscribe to our Economic Times WhatsApp channel )
