It was a disappointment for Villa, who remain unbeaten at home in their debut Champions League campaign and are still in contention to qualify automatically for the last 16. A very controversial finish at Villa Park 😲 Morgan Rogers' late goal is ruled out for a foul on Juventus goalkeeper Michele Di Gregorio and the match ends 0-0 ❌ 📺 @tntsports & @discoveryplusUK pic.twitter.com/MyYL5Vdy3r — Football on TNT Sports (@footballontnt) November 27, 2024 Emiliano Martinez had earlier displayed why he was named the best goalkeeper in the world as his wonder save kept his side level in the second half. The Argentina international paraded his two Yashin Trophies on the pitch before kick-off at Villa Park and then showed why he won back-to-back FIFA awards when he denied Francisco Conceicao. Before Rogers’ moment of drama in the fourth minute of added time, the closest Villa came to scoring was in the first half when Lucas Digne’s free-kick hit the crossbar. But a draw was a fair result which leaves Villa out of the top eight on goal difference and Juventus down in 19th. Before the game Emery called Juventus one of the “best teams in the world, historically and now”, but this was an Italian side down to the bare bones. Only 14 outfield players made the trip from Turin, with striker Dusan Vlahovic among those who stayed behind. The opening 30 minutes were forgettable before the game opened up. Ollie Watkins, still chasing his first Champions League goal, had Villa’s first presentable chance as he lashed an effort straight at Di Gregorio. Matty Cash then had a vicious effort from the resulting corner which was blocked by Federico Gatti and started a counter-attack which ended in Juventus striker Timothy Weah. Villa came closest to breaking the deadlock at the end of the first half when Digne’s 20-yard free-kick clipped the top of the crossbar and went over. Martinez then produced his brilliant save just after the hour. A corner made its way through to the far post where Conceicao was primed to head in at the far post, but Martinez sprawled himself across goal to scoop the ball away.

CHENNAI : In all of phase II, the sharpest curve of 127.55-metre radius in Porur, the Chennai Metro Rail Limited (CMRL) will begin testing driverless trains before April 2025. This is part of the first phase of commissioning from Poonamallee to Porur junction on corridor 4, which is likely to be completed by December next year. Also, CMRL achieves a unique feat by marking the first among all Metro Rail projects in India to design the composite girders, which carry rail tracks in a curved manner at Porur. Following suit, the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) is adopting the same design for its construction in Patna. “The DMRC has already completed the design for construction in Patna. Such a design is first in India but exists in Seoul, South Korea,” said T Archunan, director of projects (DP), CMRL. Corridor 4 (stretching 26.1 km from Light House to Poonamallee Bypass) is a priority corridor in phase II construction. The CMRL is already expediting work in this elevated line by laying tracks. Speaking to DT Next, a CMRL official stated, “Testing at this stretch will begin before April 2025. And, importantly testing of the rolling stock coupled with the track will be done at the sharpest curve during the same period.” At the stretch to be operated next year, the trains will pass through 10 Metro stations: Poonamallee Bypass, Poonamallee, Mullaithottam, Karayanchavadi, Kumananchavadi, Kattupakkam, Iyyappanthangal, Thelliyaragaram, Porur Bypass and Porur Junction. “The work at Mullaithottam and Kattupakkam is still underway. Once completed, the trains (on a straight line here) will be tested at a maximum speed of 90 km/h. At the Porur curve, trains will be tested at the speed of 45-50 km/h. But, the average commercial speed of trains in phase II will be at 35 km/h,” explained Archunan. “For testing at the sharpest curve in Porur, check rails will be installed near the tracks as per safety norms.” Almost five months prior to testing, CMRL has completed the erection of a composite girder on the elevated line in Porur along with contractor L&T and general consultant AEON. But, due to lack of space and heavy utilities, the CMRL and team, to prevent further land acquisition and demolition of buildings in Porur, planned the design in a curved manner (over the Porur flyover) and began erecting the steel portal beams (an element of viaduct) at that particular junction in August. Rekha Prakash, chief general manager (planning and design), CMRL, explained, “To minimise land acquisition by the side of the flyover, which is lined with multi-storied buildings, the alignment was revised with a sharper curve of 127.55-metre radius.” Steel composite girders are proposed to reduce the overall weight of the structural elements by 40%. “The girders were placed in a skew (to distort it from its original shape) and positioned on either side of the flyover without hindrance to traffic flow on Porur flyover. The complete spans were erected in four months,” she said. Transported from Bhopal, the girders of eight spans (the centre distance between two piers) have been erected with a combined weight of 2,415 tons above Porur flyover (also called MGR flyover). The design was chosen to address spans ranging between 25 and 49.42 metres. In phase II, which comprises 300 curves, Porur is the sharpest curve, followed by Koyambedu with a 127-metre radius and Alandur with 126-metre radius. As per required standards, the radius of the curve cannot dip below 120 metre-radius, pointed out CMRL officials. Corridor 5 between Madhavaram and Sholinganallur (44.6 km) has a maximum number of curves.

Democrat Bob Casey concedes to Republican David McCormick in Pennsylvania Senate contestFor the second time in as many years, the Board of Regents has approved a request to plan to shuffle around the University of Montana’s schools into new colleges. The plan approved last year, spearheaded by former provost Pardis Mahdavi, focused on interdisciplinarity, such as adding a new School of Emerging and Applied Technology. The most recent plan is the opposite, and sorts similar disciplines together. The College of Humanities and Sciences will be split between the W.A. Franke College for conservation and forestry programs, a new Science College for mathematical, physical and biological sciences, and the Phyllis J. Washington College for humanities and education. UM Provost Adrea Lawrence told the Board at their Nov. 21 meeting that this new structure will improve the visibility of UM’s science programs, letting it stand out as a STEM college. She said the new structure will also make collaboration easier. Each proposed new college has a task force set up to help shape its implementation, Lawrence said, and her office has consulted with faculty, staff and students. Lawrence said that curricular changes will take place over the next three to five years in accordance with a portfolio review done last year. The Board unanimously approved the request along with all its other action items on Nov. 22.The confirmation battles over circuit court judges are generally much harder fights given their role in hearing appeals from district courts and often having the last word on legal matters.OLD SAYBROOK, CT and VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / November 27, 2024 / BluSky Carbon Inc.

Democrats strike deal to get more Biden judges confirmed before Congress adjourns

The Social Security program is under a lot of stress. Budget cuts and increased beneficiaries have made it so that the service they can give is not as good as it should be, especially considering the number of recipients that benefit from the program. Administration Chief Martin O’Malley confirmed this by stating in the first House SSA hearing for a decade that customer service is at its worst point in Social Security’s 89-year history. During the hearing on November 20 th , Social Security Commissioner Martin O’Malley told the House Appropriations Committee that at least thirty thousand people died while waiting for their disability evaluations in 2023, and that is a funding problem that he, and many before him, have been warning about for years. Commissioner O’Malley is now resigning to start his run for Democratic National Convention chair and no progress have been made to restore funding for staffing and increase funding for technology modernization, both sorely needed by the Social Security Administration. In fact, not only has the budget not increased, it has been repeatedly cut, the last of the cuts being a half-billion-dollar cut to the Social Security Administration budget in July. This was the largest ever made by the House Appropriations Committee and has caused staffing to hit a 50-year low at the same time as the number of people claiming Social Security hit an all-time high. This is not good news for anyone and leads to situations like the previous one explained where beneficiaries just pass away without receiving the help they are owed. Commissioner O’Malley stated, “We cannot stand back and watch this agency crater. It is a sacred promise to the people of the United States; they’ve worked their entire lives so Social Security would be there for them.” Of the $2.7 trillion in Social Security reserves only 0.3% can be accessed for administrative costs and 75% of this is spent on staffing. It is not enough to sustain the agency, and Commissioner O’Malley has asked the committee to restore the accessible amount to 1.2%. Rep. Rosa DeLauro, D-Conn agrees with the commissioner stating that cuts to the SSA budget, which don’t contribute to reducing the deficit, are de facto cuts to Social Security benefits. As Commissioner O’Malley rhetorically asks, “What good are benefits if you can’t get through on the phone to access them?” As per usual, GOP Lawmakers were against restoring the staffing budget to a reasonable number, citing the SSA’s policy of allowing staff to work from home two days a week. In defense of his staff, Commissioner O’Malley reminded lawmakers that productivity had increased by 6%, and some claimants now preferred to conduct their meetings over the phone Karl Polzer from the Center on Capital and Social Equity explained to The Wash “ Social Security has a trust fund that runs out in 2035, so the agency says if Congress doesn’t fix the solvency issue, which is a big issue, they’re going to have to cut benefits by about 20%. In the past, Social Security collected more money than it’s paying out. Since 2021, it’s paying out more money than it’s going in.” The future of Social Security The agency has set a new target of 215 days of wait time, which should cut down on the current average of 243 days , but places like Georgia have a wait time for disability evaluations of 14 months, which means more efforts will need to be made there. Commissioner O’Malley sought a $5 billion one-time investment to modernize the systems for the future as well as $600 million more a year for fixed costs to avoid “the grim reaper of attrition.” He stated that “One of my deep concerns about this agency when I depart next Friday is a looming problem on the horizon of antiquated IT systems totally breaking down or being shut down by bad actors.” His final appeal to the House Appropriations Committee was to restore funding to help their constituents, “I know you’ve received their calls, I know you’ve heard their cries.”Thermal Energy Storage Market to grow by USD 2.88 Billion from 2024-2028, driven by CSP demand and AI's impact on market trends - TechnavioMarshall Lions hear from LifeShare Blood Center

Aston Villa denied last-gasp winner in Juventus stalemateTweet Facebook Mail A bipartisan committee has brushed aside concerns about unfairness to back the AUKUS treaty, while urging governments to make nuclear waste storage a "priority". The Senate's joint committee on treaties decided the agreement, and the nuclear-powered submarines it will eventually deliver, would give Australia a "clear advantage" in the "most complex and challenging strategic environment since the Second World War". The inquiry into the broad military alliance with the US and UK heard concerns from Australian National University law Professor Donald Rothwell and others about the wording of the agreement being too heavily in favour of London and Washington. Australia will purchase US Virginia-class submarines under the AUKUS defence pact. (AP) He said AUKUS offered "an enormous amount of flexibility" for the UK to US to withdraw, without giving Australia the same leeway, describing the agreement as "somewhat exceptional". The international law expert argued the deal handed Australia all the risks while indemnifying its allies and also raised concerns about a lack of certain mechanisms to resolve future disputes. The committee put concerns over the wording down to the treaties decades-long lifespan rather than it being "unfairly weighted" against Australia. It anticipated further agreements, called instruments, to emerge in the future and called for parliament to closely scrutinise them. Labor committee chair Lisa Chesters said the committee had determined the agreement was in the national interest. "Australia's acquisition of nuclear-powered submarines provides our nation with not only a strategic advantage, but also an opportunity to grow Australian jobs, education and infrastructure," she said, in a statement. "'The successful implementation of AUKUS will require upskilling the Australian workforce. This is an opportunity for our education sector and will create jobs that last for the life of the agreement and beyond. The staggering sums countries spend on defending themselves View Gallery "The 20,000 jobs added by the AUKUS program will diversify Australia's workforce and will provide high-paying jobs for trades and tertiary educated workers alike." She called for an education campaign to plug the deal's benefits and dispel "myths". The deal, signed three years ago with the aim of maintaining a "free and open Indo-Pacific" in the face of China's increasingly muscular stance, provides for a new fleet of eight nuclear-propelled submarines. The initial stage is set to cost up to $368 billion by 2055 to build, with the first vessels operating out of Adelaide by the 2040s. Australia and its AUKUS partners, the United States and Britain present the agreement. (AP) US and British nuclear submarines will deploy out of Western Australia from 2027 until the Royal Australian Navy until the nuclear-powered alternatives, whose advantages include increased range and being able to stay underwater for longer, are ready. The subs are nuclear-powered and won't carry nuclear weapons but running them out of a non-nuclear country will still require outside help for maintenance, raising concerns from some over sovereignty. Maintenance will also produce limited amounts of nuclear waste, something that was a concern at some of the hearings. "The issue of nuclear waste disposal needs to be addressed in a timely and transparent manner," the committee wrote. "While the committee acknowledges that the disposal of the nuclear fuel used to power the submarines will not be required until the 2050s or later, the decision of where to store the small amounts of low-level waste created during routine maintenance of the nuclear-powered submarines needs to be a priority."

Chargers cornerback Eli Apple will now be out for at least four weeks. Los Angeles placed Apple on injured reserve on Wednesday, according to the transaction wire. Apple suffered a hamstring injury during the first half of Los Angeles’ loss to Baltimore on Monday night. The Chargers had signed Apple to the practice squad in mid-October and he was signed to the 53-man roster on Nov. 25. In four games this season, Apple has recorded a pair of tackles with one pass defensed. A Giants first-round pick in 2016, Apple has tallied six interceptions with 61 passes defensed in 102 career games with 82 starts. The club also claimed safety Marcus Maye off waivers on Wednesday, so Apple going to IR clears a space for a new defensive back on the roster.BluSky Carbon Announces Extension of Strategic Marketing AgreementRoughly a third of all food is lost or wasted from the U.S. food supply each year and, with its big holiday meal as the centerpiece, Thanksgiving can be one of the most wasteful days of the year, according to experts. With the price of sweet potatoes , cranberries, potatoes and wine up compared with last year, shoppers may want to carefully consider how much to make for the holiday. Minimizing food waste also keeps food out of landfills, cutting down on emissions of methane — a powerful greenhouse gas. "The food on your table is the result of many resources," said Dr. Jean Buzby, liaison for food loss and waste at the United States Department of Agriculture. "Fresh water, energy, land and labor are used to create, process, transport, store, market and prepare that food. Do what you can to keep your food out of landfills so that all those resources are not wasted." How bad is food waste on Thanksgiving About 200 million pounds of turkey are thrown out over the Thanksgiving holiday week, according to estimates from the Natural Resources Defense Council. Throwing out all that turkey also means the resources used to produce it are being wasted. According to NRDC estimates, producing just one pound of turkey meat uses 520 gallons of water —the equivalent of seven bathtubs full of water. And greenhouse gas emissions from a pound of turkey are equivalent to those from burning a half gallon of gasoline. "While no one sets out to be wasteful on Thanksgiving, nor throughout the year, people want to be celebratory and enjoy a special meal," Natural Resources Defense Council expert Anya Obrez said. "Most of us have deep-rooted associations between food on the table and our ability to care for our loved ones, and so we go a little overboard to ensure we won't run out of food. On top of that, cooking for a large party can be difficult!" How to minimize food waste while preparing for Thanksgiving Ahead of the holiday, the NRDC recommends figuring out exactly how much to prepare. The organization has a tool to help: people can plug in the number of guests and how much of an eater those guests are. The next step is selecting how many meals of leftovers you want and the type of meal being prepared. Types of food can also be added to your menu in the tool to get an estimate of how much to buy and cook. It's also important to make a grocery list, said Buzby. Research shows it can help shoppers avoid impulse buying. While cooking, experts advise saving peels and scraps for future broths or creative snacks, like potato skin chips. Once everyone is at the table, Obrez suggests serving smaller portions. "If your guests tend to have a lot left on their plates at the end of the meal, use smaller plates for serving," she said. "That way, when guests pile food on their plates, the amount they've got is more closely aligned with what they will actually eat. If anyone is still hungry after the first pass, they can always go back for seconds —or thirds." Making the most of your Thanksgiving leftovers Thanksgiving hosts staring at dishes of leftover turkey, mashed potatoes, green bean casserole and more should get excited about leftovers, Buzby said. Her favorite post-Thanksgiving treat is fritters her mom made with leftover mashed potatoes. She suggests making bread pudding with extra bread, use bones or leftover meat for stock or chili, and prepare French toast with extra buttermilk or cream. "Think about what your family did to save food from being wasted and add your own touch of creativity," Buzby said. To extend shelf life, Obrez suggests freezing before tossing. "Freezing food is like hitting a pause button; nearly anything can be frozen and rediscovered for a dark winter weeknight when you don't have the energy to cook something from scratch," Obrez said. Sending food home with guests is also an option, as is making a donation. Thanksgiving Aliza Chasan is a Digital Content Producer for "60 Minutes" and CBSNews.com.
