"As a startup founder, I’ve seen just how overwhelming the early years can be—and it’s no surprise that’s when most startups fail," said Ximena Hartsock, CEO of BuildWithin.

PUB: 12/19/2024 03:39 PM/DISC: 12/19/2024 03:37 PM http://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20241219612129/enThe Enforcement Directorate (ED) has arrested Govind Kedia, a prominent stock portfolio broker, in connection with the ongoing investigation into the Mahadev online betting syndicate. Kedia is accused of channeling funds generated from illegal betting operations into the stock market. Kedia, who owns a stock portfolio management firm, was apprehended in Kolkata and presented before the Special Prevention of Money Laundering Act (PMLA) court in Raipur on Saturday. The ED sought a 14-day custodial remand for further interrogation, but the court granted a 5-day remand, enabling the agency to continue its probe. The ED probe has allegedly revealed that Kedia was a close associate of Vikas Chhaparia, one of the promoters of the Mahadev betting app and an accused in the case. Chhaparia, responsible for handling hawala operations for the betting syndicate, allegedly collaborated with Kedia, Chhaparia funneled substantial proceeds from the illegal betting operations into the Indian stock market. Kedia is accused of facilitating these funds strategically invested through entities such as Perfect Plan Investments LLP, Exim General Trading FZCO, and Techpro IT Solutions LLC, allegedly leveraging the Foreign Portfolio Investment (FPI) route to conceal the illicit origins of the money.As part of the investigation, the ED had previously frozen cash derivatives and security holdings worth Rs 236.3 crore, which were registered under entities beneficially owned by Chhaparia. Further investigations uncovered Kedia's alleged involvement in managing the shell company M/S Laxis Residency LLP, connected to Chhaparia's partnership firm and another accused, Nitin Tibrewal. Kedia is accused of allegedly investing significant amounts of illicit funds into the stock market under Chhaparia’s direction. Profits and losses from these investments were reportedly shared in a 75:25 ratio, with Kedia charging interest only on 25% of the total investment. The ED has also frozen assets worth Rs 160 crore in demat holdings under Kedia’s name under PMLA 2002. During searches at Kedia's premises last year, the agency seized Rs18 lakh in Indian currency, along with gold and jewelry valued at Rs 13 crore. The investigation further links Kedia to Nitin Tibrewal, the majority shareholder of Techpro IT Solutions Ltd. Tibrewal is accused of using the company as a front for the Mahadev Online Book syndicate. The ED claims Tibrewal channeled the proceeds of crime from illegal betting operations into the stock market via Foreign Portfolio Investments, effectively laundering crores of black money into legitimate wealth through share trading. Kedia’s role in assisting Tibrewal with layering the proceeds of crime is significant. According to the ED, Kedia used various aliases to route funds through both Indian and foreign entities. "Foreign accounts and financial transactions were intentionally camouflaged to obscure the illicit origins of the funds," a senior ED official revealed. This collaboration enabled the syndicate to convert proceeds from illegal betting into seemingly legitimate wealth, all while maintaining the appearance of lawful financial activity. The investigation continues, and the ED is expected to further probe the connections between Kedia, Chhaparia, and Tibrewal in its ongoing efforts to dismantle the Mahadev betting syndicate’s complex financial network.Edwin Su, MD, Orthopedic Surgeon at Hospital for Special Surgery performed the first Lantern Hip procedure. (PRNewsfoto/OrthAlign) Edwin Su, MD, Orthopedic Surgeon at Hospital for Special Surgery performed the first Lantern Hip procedure. (PRNewsfoto/OrthAlign) IRVINE, Calif. , Dec. 19, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- OrthAlign, Inc. today announced a significant milestone with the successful first clinical use of its Lantern Hip handheld technology. The procedure was performed by Edwin Su, MD, a renowned orthopedic surgeon at the Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) in New York, NY . "The first clinical case of Lantern Hip is a monumental achievement for our team and the surgeons involved with this project," said Eric Timko , CEO of OrthAlign. "This expansion of our flagship platform to include hips not only enhances our product portfolio, but also positions us for significant growth in both the hospital and the ambulatory surgery center (ASC). We're excited to kick off the new year with Lantern Hip and showcase its impact at the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons annual meeting," says Eric Timko . Lantern Hip is the latest evolution in hip technology, built upon the success of over 375,000 OrthAlign procedures worldwide. Next-generation sensors, powered by accelerometers and gyroscopes, are designed to provide an accurate and simple solution to navigate cup placement and measure changes in leg length and offset. The system enables the surgeon to choose their preferred implant, and is accessible to any site of service. "Lantern Hip allows me to personalize cup position for each patient," said Dr. Su. "I can compare the functional pelvic plane (FPP), the anterior pelvic plane (APP), and the coronal plane during live cup navigation, so I can place the implant in the best position for function and stability. With its triple-sensor technology, Lantern Hip also allows me to feel confident in my leg length and offset restoration. The system was simple for me and my team to integrate into our workflow during our first case, and I expect this will make a positive impact on other surgeons' experience too." OrthAlign will continue to offer surgeons the opportunity to experience Lantern Hip firsthand through webinars and demonstrations at industry events throughout 2025.

Minnesota Vikings Escape With A Win Over Green Bay PackersNo. 24 UNLV will play Cal in this year’s L.A. Bowl once again hosted by four-time Super Bowl champion Rob Gronkowski at SoFi Stadium. Kickoff is at 6 p.m. on Dec. 18 and the game will air on ESPN. UNLV (10-3) is coming off a disappointing 21-7 loss to Boise State in the Mountain West Conference championship game. The Broncos are representing the non-Power Four teams in the 12-team College Football Playoff bracket, while the Rebels settle for a trip to Inglewood. The Rebels have been through many twists during a roller-coaster season. In September, they overcame the loss of starting quarterback Matthew Sluka, who left the program after starting the season 3-0 because of a dispute over alleged unfulfilled NIL payments promised during recruiting. Since then, Campbell transfer Hajj-Malik Williams has led UNLV to a 7-3 finish. The dual-threat quarterback has thrown for 1,845 yards, 17 touchdowns and five interceptions while rushing for nearly 1,000 yards (824) and nine touchdowns. In two seasons, UNLV head coach Barry Odom transformed a dormant program (209-335-3 all-time) into a conference championship contender. He is slated to take over as Purdue’s next head coach after the UNLV bowl game. Last season, the Rebels posted their first winning season and bowl appearance in nine years. This season, the Rebels followed it up with their winningest season in 40 years, an Associated Press top 25 ranking (19th) and a College Football Playoff ranking (20th) — the rankings both firsts in school history. Cal (6-6) began the season 3-0, including an unexpected victory at Jordan-Hare Stadium against Auburn. This victory fueled the “Calgorithm” and helped it quickly take over social media in the opening month of the season. Cheeky, politically “woke” AI memes and a clever twist on Chappell Roan’s hit song “Hot to Go!”— reworked into “Ott to Go” in honor of the Bears’ star running back Jaydn Ott — became a viral sensation. Jumping from the Pac-12 to the greener pastures of the ACC seemed like a dream start for Cal, but reality quickly set in as the Golden Bears dropped six of their last nine games. They finished 13th in the ACC, with their only wins coming against two teams that finished behind them in the standings: Wake Forest and rival Stanford. The programs have faced off once before, with Cal claiming a 20-14 victory two years ago. The L.A. Bowl was first played in 2021 and originally was named after talk show Jimmy Kimmel. After his two-season affiliation ended, bowl organizers added a new title sponsor and committed to one of the longer bowl names — “Art of Sport L.A. Bowl Hosted by Gronk.”

NEW YORK (AP) — Giannis Antetkounmpo had 34 points, 11 rebounds and four assists and the Milwaukee Bucks snapped a two-game skid with a 118-113 win over the Brooklyn Nets on Sunday.
