Trump names billionaire private astronaut as next NASA chief

Jhon Duran shone against RB Leipzig with a stunning goal and exceptional performance, as he continues to show he should start for Aston Villa. Emery faces pressure to address Duran's limited minutes and bandage fractured relationship. Potential solution to start Duran alongside Watkins for upcoming crucial fixtures in the Premier League. Jhon Duran has often been left to impress from the bench, often saving Aston Villa from the jaws of defeat with his super sub performances. This was again the case with him on Tuesday night as Unai Emery's side laid the final glove on RB Leipzig in a 3-2 victory away from home to take them to third in the Champions League . Given a full second-half to showcase his abilities, the 20-year-old Colombian international once again demonstrated that his future in the Midlands lies in a starting role rather than as an impact player from the bench. The youngster not only scored a stunning goal but also delivered an impressive all-around performance, continuing to excel with every opportunity that comes his way. Currently acting as an understudy to Ollie Watkins , who contributed to 32 Premier League goals last season, his rival for a starting position was unable to get himself on the scoresheet, being hooked off at half-time. And now, it's becoming clearer that Emery should bury the hatchet with Duran and consider giving him the regular starts he so desperately deserves. Andre Onana, Chris Wood and Danny Welbeck make the list. Jhon Duran's Performances Versus RB Leipzig Scoring his eighth goal in all competitions with a speculative, swerving effort from afar, Duran sang from the same hymn sheet Watkins on Tuesday night, as the 20-year-old put on a show worthy of being given five stars. "Great attitude," Premier League record goalscorer Alan Shearer hailed following the magical strike. He continued: "I love it that he is prepared to have pop for that distance but why not? That is message to the manager: don't leave me out again. "I know he is only young but you have every right to go and ask the manager you are not starting if you are doing what he wants. Forget your age. If you are doing your bit and doing wat the manager wants, you have to be in the team." But his stunning goal was the coruscating highlight and the crowning jewel of an almost flawless, all-action performance from start to finish. He unleashed four shots throughout the night, created one big chance for his teammates, and had a perfect record when it came to his long balls, tackles, and dribbles. After the full-time whistle, he then participated in a translated interview with Alexa Aljoe for Amazon Prime. Quizzed about his electric performance, the Colombian said: "When it's my turn, I'll step up," while he also admitted to "Loving the competition" with Watkins. It's safe to say, his earlier judgement was correct as Villa have lost just once in Europe this term after many thought they'd struggle to juggle continental and domestic football. Jhon Duran's performance against RB Leipzig in numbers Minutes played 45 Shots 4 Goals 1 Big chances created 1 Accurate passes 12/16 (75%) Dribbling success 2/2 (100%) Long passes success 1/1 (100%) Duels won 4/4 (100%) Tackles won 1/1 (100%) GIVEMESPORT Key Statistic: Jhon Duran has only started 14 games since joining Aston Villa in January 2023, scoring 18 goals. Unai Emery & Jhon Duran's Fractured Relationship Duran is reportedly causing ‘a headache’ for Unai Emery and his Villa staff as he continues to struggle for regular minutes in the Premier League, and the Colombian is said to be frustrated by this. As a result, the relationship between the manager and his reliable super sub has become fractured in recent weeks. He has mostly been used as an impact substitute this term, while Watkins remains the main striker for Emery at the moment, despite his recent dip in form. The England international has now gone goalless in his last three Premier League games and has already received calls to be dropped from the starting XI , with Duran eyed as his replacement. Tuesday night’s goal once again highlighted Duran’s ability to deliver when it matters, proving he is more than ready to take on a starting role consistently. However, the pressure is mounting on Emery to make the bold decision to start the 20-year-old more frequently. If not, the highly-rated manager risks losing his talented forward, as Duran could seek a move elsewhere to secure the minutes and recognition he deserves. One approach Emery could consider in the upcoming fixtures is reconfiguring his attack to feature a two-man strike partnership, allowing both of his top forwards to start together. If this strategy can be transformed into a masterstroke that satisfies both players, tough matches against Nottingham Forest, Manchester City, and an away trip to Newcastle United could become significantly less intimidating. However, regardless of the path he chooses, Emery must find a resolution—and quickly before it's too late. All statistics via Transfermarkt (correct as of 10/12/24)Rita Ora has joined Dame Judi Dench, Olivia Colman, Jude Law, Melanie C and a host of other celebrities to reimagine the Universal Declaration of Human Rights on its 75th Anniversary. Their take on the famous document is seen in the episodic ‘For our Family Human’ films, which aim to raise awareness for the landmark birthday of the “enshrinement of the rights and freedoms of all human beings”. The first installment of the shorts launched on 28 October with British actress Nazanin Boniadi, and the following series of films has since gone viral with over 200 million views to date as an array of high profile supporters each narrate a video modernising the original text of 30 articles. Rita says while facing the camera in her film the rhyming couplet: “To fully realise this declaration across every nation and border, We shall all be entitled to an social and international order.” Along with Rita, the full cast for the ‘For our Family Human’ series includes Dame Judi Dench, Oliva Colman, Jude Law, Melanie C, Annie Lennox, Sabrina Elba, Nicholas Pinnock, Rudy Pankow, Vicky McClure, Rick Astley, Adam Hills, Laura Whitmore, Sean Pertwee, Jason Wong, Ramla Ali, Annabelle Wallis, Anoushka Shankar, Alexina Graham, Lena Headey and Kouth Wiel.

A release from the company said: “Featuring a diverse collection of music, film and entertainment stars, each film sees famous faces reciting a modern take on the original articles.” The emotive rhyming couplets used in the films were written by award-winning writer and director Dan Cadan and the films are supported by Art for Human Rights, led by human rights activist, barrister and producer Bill Shipsey.

The original Universal Declaration of Human Rights was signed 75 years ago in December. It was a milestone in history that enshrined the rights and freedoms of all human beings – stating all people are born free and equal in dignity and rights regardless of nationality, place of residence, sex, national or ethnic origin, colour, religion, language, or any other status.I’m A Celeb fans left sobbing as Danny Jones says Barry McGuigan has replaced his dad who no longer speaks to him

Stocks closed higher Friday on Wall Street, giving the market its fifth gain in a row and notching another record high for the Dow. Markets have been volatile over the last few weeks, losing ground in the runup to elections in November, then surging following Donald Trump's victory before falling again. The S&P 500 has been steadily rising throughout this week to within close range of its record, the reports. It's now within about 0.5% of its all-time high set last week. "Overall, market behavior has normalized following an intense few weeks," said Mark Hackett, chief of investment research at Nationwide, in a statement. Several retailers jumped after giving Wall Street encouraging financial updates. Gap soared 12.8% after handily beating analysts' third-quarter earnings and revenue expectations while raising its own revenue forecast for the year. Discount retailer Ross Stores rose 2.2% after raising its earnings forecast for the year. EchoStar fell 2.8% after DirecTV called off its purchase of that company's Dish Network unit. Smaller company stocks had some of the biggest gains. A majority of stocks in the S&P 500 gained ground, but those gains were kept in check by slumps for several big technology companies. Nvidia fell 3.2%. Intuit, which makes TurboTax and other accounting software, fell 5.7%. It gave investors a quarterly earnings forecast that fell short of analysts' expectations.

EPSTEIN Dec. 10, 2024 Feeling the Bliss With town approval already in hand, developer Paul Bliss is hoping to start construction this spring on his newest apartment venture in the Amherst – right between two of his other projects. But first, he is seeking more than $1.4 million in tax breaks from the Amherst Industrial Development Agency to help finance the project at the northwest corner of Main Street and Transit Road. A rendering of developer Paul Bliss' proposed new project at 6810 Main St., near Transit Road. After seeing success with multifamily buildings at the same intersection, Bliss is planning to erect a five-story building at 6810 Main, featuring 13,500 square feet of ground-floor commercial or retail space along the southern portion of the building, with 34 market-rate apartments on the second through fifth floors. That is between his four-year-old project at 6670-6790 Main St., dubbed The Tennyson, and his newly completed $18.7 million building at 6842-6846 Main, called The Pointe at Main and Transit. The latter, which just opened two weeks ago, has 67 units and is now leasing, while the older $5.6 million complex has two buildings with 32 apartments that are fully leased, plus his firm's headquarters. Both received Amherst IDA tax breaks. The newest proposal, called Tennyson III, represents a further investment in the neighborhood. The $14.4 million project calls for the 61,600-square-foot building to be constructed on a 2.2-acre site that includes five properties at 6812, 6814 and 6832 Main and 29 and 37 Tennyson Terrace. The Main Street pieces are zoned general business, while the Tennyson parcels are single-family residential. This aging retail plaza on Main Street in Amherst just west of Transit Road would be demolished and replaced by a new five-story mixed-use building at 6810 Main, under a proposal by developer Paul Bliss. Those parcels currently contain an aging 18,500-square-foot one-story retail strip plaza from 1970 that is half-empty and two single-family homes, all of which will be demolished, as well as additional vacant land. The new building will be located along Main, with 105 surface parking spaces behind it and 12 detached garages, in a pair of six-car buildings on the back side of the parking lot. The building will feature six one-bedroom and 28 two-bedroom apartments. About 20% of the apartments, or seven units, will be considered workforce housing, priced to be affordable to households earning no more than 80% of the area median income. The site is located in a town Enhancement Area designed for "redevelopment of obsolete and underutilized parcels," according to IDA documents, and the project received town Planning Board approval in May, as well as zoning variances a year ago. It's also consistent with the town's Comprehensive Plan, the developer argued. Bliss hopes to start construction in May, with completion by March 2026. Bliss is asking the Amherst IDA for $923,592 in property tax breaks over 10 years, $436,406 in sales tax relief and $80,775 in mortgage-recording tax abatement. He asked the agency to delay consideration until January while he incorporates a playground or park along Tennyson. In his application, he cites the need to overcome extra costs for site development and demolition, adhering to the town's design standards, cost increase for material and labor, higher interest rates and stricter lending requirements, such as higher equity contribution. In a twist, he also cites the need for including workforce housing – even though inclusion of workforce housing is necessary to be considered for the tax breaks. An independent evaluation of the project's feasibility by Camoin Associates, commissioned by the IDA, found Bliss' proposed rents to be higher than local benchmarks, and higher than income limits for the workforce housing units. Even so, it concluded that the project would lose money after five years without help, would have just $57,799 in cash flow and a low rate of return with AIDA assistance, and Bliss would not recoup the investment after 10 years. – Jonathan D.

The Amherst Industrial Development Agency approved nearly $300,000 in tax breaks for a 4.4-megawatt solar farm in the northern part of town, on New Road. The $10.3 million project by Depew-based National Energy Development calls for construction of the array on most of a 43-acre vacant property at 1050 New Road that NED would acquire from the current owner, WCF Properties. The site is zoned as suburban agricultural. The renewable energy company would then subdivide the property, taking 39.6 acres for its project, while cutting the remaining land into three single-family residential lots of just over an acre each. The solar project would be constructed on the rear 21.9 acres, with 9.7 acres to remain vacant in the middle of the property. It would include 8,100 solar panels and four equipment pods. The Amherst IDA last month approved $217,392 in sales tax breaks on a maximum of $2.48 million in equipment purchases and $76,025 in mortgage-recording tax abatement, as well as a 25-year payment-in-lieu-of-taxes on the property, under which NED would pay $4,700 per megawatt, increasing by 2% a year. Construction is expected to start by April 15, 2025, and finish by Oct. 15. The project would create two part-time jobs, paying $8,000 each, and includes a $40,000 host community benefit agreement.

Why aren’t mobile homes considered among affordable housing fixes?

Although a relatively young brand, Laurent Ferrier has built a strong track record at the Grand Prix d'Horlogerie de Genève (GPHG). Its first take on the moon phase complication recently won the Calendar and Astronomy Watch Prize at the GPHG 2024. The Classic Moon Silver shares the poetic silhouette of the Galet Classic Tourbillon Double Spiral, which was named the best men's watch at the GPHG 2010. "After retirement, my father co-founded the company in 2009 so that he could make watches of his dream, based on simplicity, precision and pure, uncluttered beauty. This materialised in our first creation, which won the Men's Watch Prize in our debut at the GPHG in 2010," said Christian Ferrier. While his career started in an aerospace research lab, Christian followed in the footsteps of his ancestors. Laurent Ferrier is a third-generation watchmaker, who partnered with François Servanin to establish the atelier in Geneva. From the very beginning, Christian has worked with his father in the creation department. He designs cases and LF calibres while fulfilling the role as head of brand patrimony. "As an independent company, Laurent Ferrier focuses on creating products not meeting deadlines. We take the time to go so far into the details, with my father fine-tuning elements of our watches to achieve a balance so that the case, dial, movement and every parts are appreciated," he said. The award-winning Classic Moon Silver shines in a red-gold case with a diameter of 40mm and a ball-shaped crown. The Classic case with smooth curves and delicately-curved lugs is inspired by 19th century pocket watches and pebbles in nature. Laurent Ferrier with the GPHG 2024 Calendar and Astronomy Watch Prize. Ferrier highlights the craftsmanship in creating the elegant case and distinct moon phase display, which has been integrated into the small seconds sub-dial at 6 o'clock. Engraving on the rotating disc in dark blue Murano aventurine glass is complemented by details in hand-applied white paint. The engraved double moon and stars are filled with Super-LumiNova and then fired at high temperatures. The luminescent coating is then further engraved to create craters on the lunar surface. The design further includes a translucid petrol-blue enamel applique in tracking the moon phase observed in both the Northern and Southern hemispheres. Accordingly, N and S are indicated between the small second markers. "Our very first moon phase complication is combined with an annual calendar for the Classic Moon. The gentle vertical brushing on the silver dial creates a subtle and delicate interplay of light, giving a sense of purity despite displaying various indications," said Ferrier. At 12 o'clock, two bevelled windows indicate the day of the week and the month. The date numerals are on the chemin de fer minute track in a petrol blue shade with 31 standing out in cherry red to match the central date pointer. The layout echoes the Galet Annual Calendar School Piece, which earned Laurent Ferrier's the Men's Complication Watch Prize at the GPHG 2018. The annual calendar complication distinguishes months with 30 and 31 days, automatically advancing to the 1st of the next month. Manual adjustment is only required once a year, on March 1, to adapt to the varying number of days in February. The date and moon phase display of the Classic Moon Silver are respectively adjusted by using a setting pin via a corrector at 10 o'clock and a discreet flush fitted corrector set on the left side of the case between 8 and 9 o'clock. Head of brand patrimony Christian Ferrier. The timekeeping and complications are driven by calibre LF126.02, which provides a power reserve of 80 hours. Based on calibre LF126.01, which powered the Galet Annual Calendar School Piece, the upgraded movement features more than 20 revised and 30 new components. "The sapphire crystal of the case back reveals our hand-wound movement, characterised by the long blade ratchet pawl. Besides the design of each part, we aesthetically consider its position on the movement and the finishing that makes it even more beautiful," he said. The calibre LF126.02 debuted in two versions of Laurent Ferrier's annual calendar and moon phase model, with the bolder Classic Moon Blue presented in a stainless steel case with a tonal grey-blue dial.
