A bankruptcy judge will hear arguments on Monday over the auction that allowed satirical newspaper The Onion to buy Alex Jones' Infowars . Jones is attempting to block the sale, claiming there was fraud and collusion in the Nov. 14 bankruptcy auction where The Onion was named the winning bidder. A federal judge ordered the liquidation of Austin-based conspiracy theorist Alex Jones' personal assets. He owes more than a billion dollars for lies he spread about the Sandy Hook Elementary school shooting. Alex Jones declared bankruptcy and was forced to liquidate his assets after he was ordered to pay $1.4 billion to the families of victims in the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting in Newtown, Connecticut. Jones called the 2012 shooting that killed 20 first-graders and six educators a hoax. He has since acknowledged the shooting happened. A judge found Jones liable for defamation and emotional distress. All proceeds from the liquidation would go to Jones' creditors, which include the Sandy Hook families. Jones is appealing the $1.5 billion ruling, citing free speech rights. Satirical news publication, The Onion, has purchased Alex Jones' Infowars with plans to use the platform to raise awareness about gun violence prevention. The Onion was declared the winning bidder for Jones' Infowars. The live auction was held for the intellectual properties owned by Free Speech Systems Media Holdings, which includes Infowars, its production rights, archives and social media accounts. The auction also packaged the Infowars store to include its web domain, trademarks, contracts, e-commerce platform and customer lists. Jones' store sells supplements and apparel. Jones claims The Onion colluded with some of the families and a court-appointed trustee overseeing the liquidation process. The other bidder, First United American Companies, runs a website affiliated with Jones that sells nutritional supplements. First United American Companies offered $3.5 million, while The Onion offered $1.75 million in cash. The humor sites' bid also included a pledge to Sandy Hook families to forgo some or all of the auction proceeds due to them to give other creditors a total of $100,000 more than they would receive under other bids. Court-appointed trustee Christopher Murray says the provisions made the lower bid more beneficial to the creditors. Jones alleges the bid violated the rules of the auction and says Murray canceled an expected round of live bidding. U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Christopher Lopez said during a Nov. 14 hearing that he was concerned about the process and transparency. Jones has called the auction "rigged and a "fraud" on his show. InfoWars founder Alex Jones (Photo by Joe Buglewicz/Getty Images) and The Onion website (Photo Illustration by Mario Tama/Getty Images) It is not clear how soon Lopez will issue a ruling. He could allow The Onion to move forward with the purchase, order a new auction or name First United American Companies the winner. If The Onion is declared the winner, it could kick Jones out of his Infowars studio in Austin. "The Onion is proud to acquire Infowars, and we look forward to continuing its storied tradition of scaring the site’s users with lies until they fork over their cold, hard cash," said The Onion’s CEO Ben Collins in a statement. The nonprofit Everytown for Gun Safety said it would be the "exclusive launch advertiser" for the reworked site. If the sale is approved, it is expected to launch in January 2025. Jones has already set up a new studio, websites and social media platforms. Lopez is also expected to rule on if Jones' personal X account, and its 3.3 million followers, should be included in the sale. Lawyers for X submitted a court filing saying that the social media company is the owner of both Jones' and Infowars' accounts and that they have not given permission for them to be sold.

( MENAFN - The Conversation) 20 years have passed since the Aceh tsunami, leaving deep scars on Indonesia, especially for those directly affected. Aceh was also recovering from a three-decade armed conflict between the Free Aceh Movement and the national government Throughout December 2024, The Conversation Indonesia, in collaboration with academics, is publishing a special edition honouring the 20 years of efforts to rebuild Aceh . We hope this series of articles preserves our collective memory while inspiring reflection on the journey of recovery and peace in the land of 'Serambi Makkah.' In the aftermath of the 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami, the Acehnese interpreted the disaster in various ways. Initially, the tsunami was interpreted as a punishment or warning from God. Over time, a collective interpretation of the disaster emerged: “The tsunami as a test from God” . This later narrative was compelling enough to accelerate the post-tsunami recovery process . People in Aceh moved past the tsunami trauma by believing their deceased family members were martyrs who deserved a place in heaven, while those who survived were given the opportunity by Allah to live better lives. The process of forming this narrative is called memory canonisation . It occurs when the government and ruling elites impose a specific interpretation or narrative of a disaster, including what to remember and how to remember it . Memory canonisation is evident in the creation of disaster monuments and commemoration events, including in Aceh. Unfortunately, many survivors feel detached from the monuments because they do not evoke personal memories of the tsunami. Constructing permanent memorials after a disaster is a common trend in a modern society . Many tsunami monuments exist in Aceh, and some have even become tourist destinations. Tsunami monuments can be divided into two categories based on the construction. First , monuments built from tsunami debris that are deliberately maintained, modified, or enhanced with certain elements. Examples include the stranded electric-generator ship (the PLTD Apung), the ship on the top of a house in Lampulo, and the tsunami debris at the Rahmatullah Mosque in Lampuuk. Second , monuments intentionally designed and constructed as new buildings after the tsunami, such as the Aceh Tsunami Museum and the Tsunami Poles erected in over 50 locations across Banda Aceh and Aceh Besar. The establishment of disaster memorials is always political . Disaster monuments represent how governments and elites promote specific interpretations as dominant. This is achieved through specific architectural designs or curated narratives in the monument. However, the memory canonisation process is never final. Once established, each disaster monument becomes a place to form, strengthen, modify, alter, and revise the interpretation of the disaster. In a post-disaster situation, the affected community faces 'push and pull' between remembering and forgetting the disaster . They must let go of trauma to move forward while preserving disaster memories to honour victims and enhance future preparedness. The memory of the disaster resides in the back of their mind, but not constantly remembered in everyday life. It will move to the surface as an active memory only when triggered by certain factors, such as a place, object, or event. This memory closely relates to how the survivors give meaning to the disaster. In everyday life, survivors interact with disaster monuments in various contexts –for instance, as a source of income or a place for leisure . Thus, the meaning of a disaster monument can vary, even becoming completely unrelated to its creators' narratives and original goals. Preliminary findings from my ongoing research in Aceh show that among survivors, tsunami memories are often triggered by specific places associated with their experiences. These include the house where they found safety, the coastal area that swept them away, or the ruins of their homes. I refer to these as“the forgotten memories of the tsunami.” Since many tsunami monuments were erected without involving local residents , they feel barely connected, let alone have a sense of ownership, towards the monuments. For survivors, the established monuments do not trigger their memories of the tsunami. Today, 20 years after the tsunami, we can still meet survivors who offer valuable and insightful stories about starting over, rebuilding their homes and villages, and cultivating cultural awareness about tsunamis while embracing vulnerability. However, once these survivors pass away, future generations will lose access to primary sources of learning about the tsunami. This includes new inhabitants who moved to Aceh after the tsunami and rent houses in coastal areas. They will, therefore, depend on the tsunami memorials around them, though many have been neglected . To address these risks, I recommend two measures. First , we can document the“forgotten tsunami memories” creatively through formats like documentary videos, comics, photos, social media content, or other mediums that highlight stories offering insights into disaster risk reduction and education for younger generations. Second , we must encourage sustainable and meaningful interactions between locals and tsunami monuments. Disaster memorials serve their purpose best - preserving the memory of the disaster and educating younger generations - when they remain relevant to residents' daily activities. Locals' active participation is essential in Aceh, including school visits and involvement in . These measures aim to foster a sense of ownership among residents of the tsunami monuments in their neighbourhoods. They encourage voluntary maintenance of the monuments and make them integral to disaster risk reduction efforts.

Yamandu Orsi, the 57-year-old former history teacher, has emerged as the new president-elect of Uruguay after a tightly contested electoral race. Representing the left-leaning Broad Front coalition, Orsi secured 49.8% of the vote, as he defeated Alvaro Delgado from the governing National Party, who garnered 45.9%. Orsi's victory is underpinned by his promise to maintain Uruguay's moderate political landscape while modernizing the left. His campaign focused on addressing key issues like crime and poverty without resorting to tax increases, opting instead to encourage economic growth through foreign investment. He plans to prioritize social welfare alongside economic advancement. Emphasizing unity, Orsi's leadership style is described as folksy and collaborative, reminiscent of his mentor, former President Jose Mujica. Despite electoral gains for Broad Front in Uruguay's Senate, Orsi aims to promote dialogue as a cornerstone of his presidency, ensuring stability and continued economic prosperity.

XoMotionTM, The World's Most Advanced Medical Exoskeleton, Honored with CES 2025 Innovation AwardThe commanding officer and crew of HMNZS Manawanui have made an emotional and final visit to home port Gisborne where they were honoured by the RSA and Gisborne District Council. The dive and hydrographic ship struck a reef off Samoa and sank on October 5, becoming the first vessel lost by the navy since World War II. All 75 people aboard were successfully rescued. Mayor Rehette Stoltz, speaking at Thursday’s full council meeting, said there had been a lovely and emotional mayoral reception on Wednesday to acknowledge the relationship between the ship and Gisborne. Commanding Officer Yvonne Gray brought with her Manawanui’s symbol of command - a toki poutangata (ceremonial adze). A councillor told the Herald the reception was “an incredibly moving ceremony”. Stoltz said the crew had been through so much emotional trauma, but during their Gisborne visit, had spent time picking up rubbish at Makorori Beach and other places. Gisborne RSA farewelled Gray and crew members with a buffet dinner. Speeches were made by (Gisborne) Royal New Zealand Naval Association president Sonny Maynard and regional naval officer Lieutenant Commander Greg Mackle. Jack Donnelly, of the RNZ Naval Association, told the Herald Gray spoke passionately about her time as the ship’s commanding officer. Gray told those at the dinner the time spent in Gisborne providing vital support during had been some of the most challenging but rewarding of her naval career. “It was a very informative evening, with our old sailors sharing stories and having a good laugh with the young sailors,” Donnelly said. “A ship is our home and we sailors treat her as one of our own. “It is just like losing one of our whānau.” Fuel removal from the sunken is expected to start in December, a statement from the New Zealand Defence Force (NZDF) said. Royal New Zealand Navy deputy chief Andrew Brown said the first priority was to first remove the “bulk fuel”, which poses the largest environmental risk, then progress to the smaller quantities of oils and other contaminants. “In the end, we do not expect it will be safe or practical to remove absolutely all the liquids, however, the objective is to do everything practicable to limit or stop any potential damage to the environment,” Brown said. The operation would be done as quickly and safely as possible, but was dependent on factors such as weather and sea conditions, he said. Equipment needed was expected to leave New Zealand in the next week and take about 10 days to arrive, NZDF said in a statement. The crew of HMNZS Manawanui, which sank off the coast of Samoa last month, returned to their home port of Gisborne this week to carry out environmental work on local beaches and waterways. Crew members tackled weed removal along the Waimata River and collected rubbish from Makorori and Midway beaches. Their efforts were praised by Gisborne District Council on social media. “While the huge amount of waste they collected was disappointing, it’s heartening to see the area clear ahead of summer,” a council spokeswoman wrote. “Let’s all do our bit to be ‘waste-free warriors’ and keep up the good work.” “To the Manawanui crew members who came here, we’d love to extend a huge ‘thank you’ to each and every one of you. Your positivity and ‘can-do’ attitude was awesome to experience. Thanks also to Gizzy Waste for the use of the skip bins.” The clean-up left key recreational areas tidier for the summer season.
Cam Carter put LSU ahead for good with a jumper 1:08 into the third overtime and the Tigers came away with a wild 109-102 win over UCF on Sunday in the third-place game of the Greenbrier Tip-Off in White Sulphur Springs, W.Va. Carter's make sparked a 5-0 spurt for LSU (5-1), which mounted a ferocious second-half rally that began after Darius Johnson drilled a 3-pointer to put the Knights up 52-34 with 12:57 to play in regulation. UCF (4-2) got back within two in the third overtime, but it never found a way to draw even. Vyctorius Miller and Jordan Sears sealed the victory, combining for three buckets down low that gave the Tigers a 106-99 cushion with 17 seconds remaining. Carter was the late-game hero for LSU, scoring the final four points of regulation to forge a 70-70 tie. He also knocked down a go-ahead 3-pointer with 3:19 left in the first extra session to give the Tigers a 76-75 advantage. Sears gave LSU a four-point edge with a triple of his own with 2:10 to go, but the Tigers failed to stay in front, and UCF's Keyshawn Hall kept the game going by sinking two free throws with six seconds remaining to make it 82-82. Neither team led by more than three in the second overtime, with Hall again coming to the Knights' rescue. He made two layups in the final 52 seconds of the frame to knot things at 93 and send the teams to a third OT. Few could have predicted 15 minutes of extra basketball after UCF put together a 25-3 first-half run that lifted it to a 38-18 advantage with 2:12 left until the break. LSU responded with seven unanswered points, but the Knights still led comfortably, 40-25, at intermission. Sears finished with a game-high-tying 25 points to go along with nine boards, while Jalen Reed recorded a 21-point, 13-rebound double-double for the Tigers. Carter netted 20 points, Miller had 16 and Dji Bailey chipped in 14. Johnson collected 25 points, six rebounds, eight assists and five steals for UCF. Hall totaled 21 points and 10 boards, and Jordan Ivy-Curry supplied 20 points. LSU outshot UCF 43.2 percent to 40.7 percent and had narrow advantages from behind the arc (12 made shots to 10) and the free-throw line (21-18). --Field Level MediaAndrew Callahan: It’s time to forget about Jerod Mayo getting fired
The Transportation Security Administration has some reminders for those heading to airports during the holidays. “People seem to forget some of the more common and routine steps that they need to take when packing for a flight or when they are going through a checkpoint, perhaps because they’re focused on being at their destination and not focusing on what needs to happen before getting there,” said TSA officer Christopher Kirchein of John F. Kennedy International Airport. “Travelers sometimes ignore the advice that we give them,” said TeaNeisha Barker, a TSA uniformed adviser. “We are providing guidance so that they get through the checkpoint as simply and conveniently as possible. Not every airport has the same technology, so listen to the guidance we are offering.” “Passengers forget that knives and other weapons are not allowed through our checkpoints. It’s shocking to see so many people with knives,” said TSA officer Aisha Hicks of Philadelphia International Airport. “Weapons of any kind are prohibited through a TSA checkpoint.” TSA officers shared this list of the common things that travelers forget and should remember when coming to a security checkpoint. Ten things that travelers need to remember when preparing to go through the security screening process: • Remember that you cannot bring bottles of water, energy drinks, juice, coffee, soda or any filled insulated reusable container through a security checkpoint. However, they can finish their beverage and bring the empty bottle or container with them. • Remember to bring your ID to the checkpoint. • Remember when TSA officers remind you to remove everything from your pockets that it does not only mean metallic items such as keys and mobile phones, but it means everything, including non-metallic items such as tissues, lip balm, breath mints, etc. • Remember that you cannot bring a firearm through a checkpoint. Instead, pack your unloaded firearm in a locked hard-sided case and declare it at your airline check-in counter and the airline will ensure it is transported in the belly of the plane where nobody has access to it. • Remember that you need to remove your shoes when getting screened and then end up barefoot on the floor. It’s probably a good idea to wear socks. • Remember that children 12 and under are allowed to travel through a TSA PreCheck screening lane with a parent who has TSA PreCheck on their boarding pass. In addition, don’t forget that children up to the age of 18 can also come into the TSA PreCheck lane with their parent if they are on the same airline reservation as their parent. • Remember that passengers that appear 12 and under or 75 and older do not need to remove their shoes and light jacket. • Remember, if you are putting a lock on your luggage, make sure it is a TSA compatible lock so that if TSA officers need to open your luggage, they can unlock it and relock it. If the lock is not TSA compliant, TSA officers who need to open your luggage will cut off the lock, rendering it useless. • Remember that you can bring medications through a security checkpoint, even liquid medication. Just let the TSA officer know that you have liquid medication with you so it can be screened separately. • Remember to get a REAL ID-compliant driver’s license sooner rather than later because REAL ID goes into effect on May 7.AB not entitled to 50% of Canada Pension Plan: Chief Actuary reportLululemon Athletica earnings beat by $0.16, revenue topped estimates

Indexes ended lower on Thursday as traders focused on the coming jobs report. The data is expected to show the US economy added 214,000 new hires, a steep uptick from October's reading. The report will give new clues about the path of interest rates ahead of this month's Fed meeting. Indexes ended lower on Thursday as traders' attention remained fixed on the upcoming November jobs report due Friday morning. The major averages ended slightly lower, while bond yields were little changed. The 10-year Treasury yield was about flat at 4.178% Economists polled by FactSet expect the jobs data to show that US employers added 215,000 new jobs, a steep uptick from October's dismal reading of just 12,000 following that month's hurricanes and labor strikes. The data will provide important clues to investors about the path of interest rates as the Federal Reserve heads toward its next policy meeting later this month. The Fed has made two consecutive rate cuts since September, and markets see a 70% chance of a 25 basis point cut this month, according to the CME FedWatch Tool . However, fed fund futures also show traders eyeing rising odds of a pause, with odds of no change to the benchmark rate at30%, compared to 22% on Wednesday. That comes as Fed speakers this week have voiced caution on easing monetary policy. Chair Jerome Powell, who spoke at The New York Times' DealBook Summit on Wednesday sounded optimistic about the state of the US economy, stating that the central bank could afford to move slowly on rate cuts. "Growth is definitely stronger than we thought, and inflation is coming a little higher," Powell said, adding, "The good news is that we can afford to be a little more cautious as we try to find neutral." Here's where US indexes stood at the 4:00 p.m. closing bell on Wednesday: S&P 500 : 6,075.11, down 0.19% Dow Jones Industrial Average : 44,765.71, down 0.55% (-248.33 points) Nasdaq composite : 19,700.26, 0.18% Meanwhile, bitcoin continued to trade higher for much of the day after passing the key $100,000 threshold for the first time on Wednesday.

Best I can tell, he’s staying put. For 2025, and maybe beyond. To his angry fan base and incredulous pockets of the New England Patriots’ media corps, remember Mayo’s future doesn’t hinge on winning this season. It’s not about what you want, or what I think. It’s about the Krafts, who hand-picked Mayo to succeed Bill Belichick four and a half years before he actually did, believing in him, and finding reasons to maintain that belief. In the eyes of someone who wants to believe, Sunday supplied enough reason. The Patriots led at halftime, then lost by three as 14-point underdogs. They became the first team since mid-October to hold the Bills under 30 points. Drake Maye outplayed the next MVP of the league for most of the game and took another step toward his destiny as a franchise quarterback, People are also reading... If that sounds like a low bar, that’s because it is. Such is life in Year 1 of a rebuild, a multi-year process ownership has committed to seeing through to the end with their organizational pillars now in place: Mayo, Maye and de facto GM Eliot Wolf. As frustrating as this 3-12 campaign has been, there are always nuggets of optimism amid the rubble of a losing season; particularly if you want to find them. The Krafts do, and so does Maye, who loves his head coach, by the way; calling questions about Mayo’s job security “BS.” “We’ve got his back,” Maye said post-game. Maye’s voice matters. Certainly more than any number of fans or media members. Ever since media-fueled speculation that Mayo could get canned at the end of his first season began rising, the caveat has always been the same: if, a Gillette Stadium-sized “if,” the Patriots bomb atomically down the stretch, ownership could pull the plug on Mayo. NFL Network insider Ian Rapoport became the latest to join that chorus Sunday with this pregame report: “The Krafts want to keep Jerod Mayo,” he said. “They believe he is the leader for the organization for the future, and they knew it would be a multi-year process to get this thing right. Now if things go off the rails, if they really start to struggle and he loses the locker room the last couple games of the season, we’ve seen this thing turn. “But as of now, the Patriots believe Jerod Mayo is their leader for the future.” Well, Mayo hasn’t lost the locker room. That’s a fact. To a man, both in public and from those I’ve spoken to in private, Patriots players believe in their head coach. Mayo might be a players’ coach, yes, in the best and worst senses. But the Patriots were a few plays away Sunday from pulling off their largest upset since Super Bowl XXXVI. “I think we’re building something good,” Maye said. The Patriots also played their best half of football this season against their toughest opponent yet. Another fact. Now, to the frustrated, I am with you. To the shocked, I understand. But to the trigger-happy, lay down your arms. Mayo, by all accounts, is returning in 2025. Alex Van Pelt, however, is another story. In the same vein that the Krafts could have viewed Sunday’s performance as a reason to save Mayo — despite his pathetic punt at midfield, down 10 with just eight and a half minutes left — they could have convinced themselves their offensive coordinator is the real problem. After all, team president Jonathan Kraft was visibly exasperated over Van Pelt’s play-calling during the Pats’ loss at Arizona a week earlier. Four days later, Van Pelt told reporters he had yet to hear from his boss. Well, that time may be coming. Trailing by three in the fourth quarter Sunday, Van Pelt called a pass that resulted in an unnecessary lateral and game-winning touchdown for Buffalo. His offense later operated like it was taking a Sunday drive with the game on the line, using up 3:16 of the final 4:19 en route to its final touchdown. Van Pelt, finally, weaponized Maye’s legs in critical situations, something that arguably should have been done weeks ago. Not to mention, Van Pelt’s top running back can’t stop fumbling, and the offensive line remains a hot mess. Call him Alex Van Fall Guy. Because Van Pelt’s offense, for the first time in a while, under-performed relative to Mayo’s defense. On merit, he deserves to stay; a case that’s harder to make for defensive coordinator DeMarcus Covington. But it’s not about merit this season. It’s not about what you want. It’s not about what I think. It’s about the Krafts; what they see, what they want, what they believe. Even in defeat. ____ Get in the game with our Prep Sports Newsletter Sent weekly directly to your inbox!

‘Nearly 40% of cricketers at U12 level in Australia are of South Asian heritage’PLEASANTON, Calif. , Dec. 23, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- 10x Genomics, Inc. (Nasdaq: TXG), a leader in single cell and spatial biology, announced today it had secured a permanent injunction in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware against the GeoMx products sold by Bruker Corporation (Nasdaq: BRKR), which acquired the product line from NanoString Technologies. To minimize the risk of disruption to ongoing research, 10x Genomics requested a carve-out for GeoMx users who installed an instrument prior to the trial in November 2023 . The injunction, which the Court said it will enter in January 2025 , is expected to prohibit Bruker from making, using, selling or offering to sell in the United States its GeoMx Digital Spatial Profiler and associated instruments, reagents and services for RNA and protein detection. At the request of 10x Genomics, the injunction will not block ongoing research by researchers who installed a GeoMx instrument prior to November 18, 2023 . Such customers can continue to purchase GeoMx reagents for use with existing GeoMx instruments for purposes of continuing their ongoing research. The Court found that making such an exception for ongoing research strikes a "workable balance between protecting the patentee's rights and protecting the public from the injunction's adverse effects." In addition, the Court affirmed the $31 million damages awarded by the November 2023 jury verdict, as well as supplemental damages and interest that will be added to the total damages when final judgment is entered. "Today's decision helps to safeguard our decade-long investment in innovation and ensures we can continue to develop groundbreaking technologies that help our customers revolutionize science," said Eric Whitaker , Chief Legal Officer at 10x Genomics. "10x exists to fuel scientific progress – not stifle it – and that is why we've done our utmost to ensure this injunction was structured to protect both our intellectual property and existing GeoMx customers' ongoing research." The Court recognized the harm NanoString's infringing conduct caused 10x when it wrote in its ruling, "Having been careful not to license its technology, 10x suffers when it proclaims itself as an innovator in spatial genomics but a competitor is using the same innovative, patented technology." Today's Court decision follows a November 2023 jury verdict that found that NanoString's GeoMx products willfully infringed seven patents exclusively licensed to 10x Genomics by Prognosys. During the trial, the jury heard testimony from the sole inventor of the patents, Illumina co-founder Mark Chee , and NanoString CEO Brad Gray and NanoString CSO Joe Beechem. After hearing all of the evidence, the jury determined that all seven patents had been infringed by NanoString, that each patent was valid, that NanoString willfully infringed those patents and that monetary damages were owed to 10x for the infringement of all seven patents. In affirming the jury's finding that NanoString willfully infringed, the Court relied on the evidence showing that NanoString knew or was willfully blind that its acts would cause infringement of 10x's rights. The asserted patents in Case No. 21-cv-653-MFK include (a) U.S. Patent No. 10,472,669; (b) U.S. Patent No. 10,961,566; (c) U.S. Patent No. 10,983,113; (d) U.S. Patent No. 10,996,219; (e) U.S. Patent No. 11,001,878; (f) U.S. Patent No. 11,008,607 and (g) U.S. Patent No. 11,293,917.
