On Saturday, Purdue travels to The Rock to take on No. 10 Indiana, a program that has been one of the best stories in college football this season. Behind the leadership of first-year head coach Curt Cignetti, formerly of James Madison, the Hoosiers head into Saturday's matchup with Purdue at 10-1 on the season and ranked No. 10 in the country. Indiana is coming off its first setback of the season, falling 38-15 against No. 2 Ohio State, a tough result but far from an embarrassing one, as the Buckeyes hosted the matchup and are one of the best teams in the country. How to Watch Purdue at No. 10 Indiana: Before that, Indiana had defeated Washington 31-17 on Oct. 26, Michigan State 47-10 on Nov. 2, and Michigan 20-15 on Nov. 9. Now, Indiana will look to close out its season with an 11-1 record and a win over in-state rival Purdue. Indiana is led by quarterback Kurtis Rourke and his 2,478 passing yards, 21 touchdowns, and four interceptions. The senior quarterback has played his way into the NFL draft picture thanks to his performances for Indiana this season. Purdue, meanwhile, is an extremely disappointing 1-10 on the season, the second year of the head coach Ryan Walters era. The Boilermakers' lone win of the campaign came on Aug. 31, a 49-0 victory over Indiana State. They did get close to their second win on Oct. 12 but ultimately fell 50-49 against now-No. 23 Illinois. Can Indiana finish out its magical season with a win to get to 11-1? Or will Purdue pull off the shocking upset over its rival? Find out on FOX Sports 1 at 7:00 p.m. ET.

But any efforts to halt the policy would face steep legal hurdles. Birthright citizenship means anyone born in the United States automatically becomes an American citizen. It's been in place for decades and applies to children born to someone in the country illegally or in the U.S. on a tourist or student visa who plans to return to their home country. It's not the practice of every country, and Trump and his supporters have argued that the system is being abused and that there should be tougher standards for becoming an American citizen. But others say this is a right enshrined in the 14th Amendment to the Constitution, it would be extremely difficult to overturn and even if it's possible, it's a bad idea. Here's a look at birthright citizenship, what Trump has said about it and the prospects for ending it: During an interview Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press” Trump said he “absolutely” planned to halt birthright citizenship once in office. “We’re going to end that because it’s ridiculous,” he said. Trump and other opponents of birthright citizenship have argued that it creates an incentive for people to come to the U.S. illegally or take part in “birth tourism,” in which pregnant women enter the U.S. specifically to give birth so their children can have citizenship before returning to their home countries. “Simply crossing the border and having a child should not entitle anyone to citizenship,” said Eric Ruark, director of research for NumbersUSA, which argues for reducing immigration. The organization supports changes that would require at least one parent to be a permanent legal resident or a U.S. citizen for their children to automatically get citizenship. Others have argued that ending birthright citizenship would profoundly damage the country. “One of our big benefits is that people born here are citizens, are not an illegal underclass. There’s better assimilation and integration of immigrants and their children because of birthright citizenship,” said Alex Nowrasteh, vice president for economic and social policy studies at the pro-immigration Cato Institute. In 2019, the Migration Policy Institute estimated that 5.5 million children under age 18 lived with at least one parent in the country illegally in 2019, representing 7% of the U.S. child population. The vast majority of those children were U.S. citizens. The nonpartisan think tank said during Trump’s campaign for president in 2015 that the number of people in the country illegally would “balloon” if birthright citizenship were repealed, creating “a self-perpetuating class that would be excluded from social membership for generations.” In the aftermath of the Civil War, Congress ratified the 14th Amendment in July 1868. That amendment assured citizenship for all, including Black people. “All persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside,” the 14th Amendment says. “No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States.” But the 14th Amendment didn't always translate to everyone being afforded birthright citizenship. For example, it wasn't until 1924 that Congress finally granted citizenship to all Native Americans born in the U.S. A key case in the history of birthright citizenship came in 1898, when the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that Wong Kim Ark, born in San Francisco to Chinese immigrants, was a U.S. citizen because he was born in the states. The federal government had tried to deny him reentry into the county after a trip abroad on grounds he wasn’t a citizen under the Chinese Exclusion Act. But some have argued that the 1898 case clearly applied to children born of parents who are both legal immigrants to America but that it's less clear whether it applies to children born to parents without legal status or, for example, who come for a short-term like a tourist visa. “That is the leading case on this. In fact, it’s the only case on this,” said Andrew Arthur, a fellow at the Center for Immigration Studies, which supports immigration restrictions. “It’s a lot more of an open legal question than most people think.” Some proponents of immigration restrictions have argued the words “subject to the jurisdiction thereof” in the 14th Amendment allows the U.S. to deny citizenship to babies born to those in the country illegally. Trump himself used that language in his 2023 announcement that he would aim to end birthright citizenship if reelected. Trump wasn't clear in his Sunday interview how he aims to end birthright citizenship. Asked how he could get around the 14th Amendment with an executive action, Trump said: “Well, we’re going to have to get it changed. We’ll maybe have to go back to the people. But we have to end it.” Pressed further on whether he'd use an executive order, Trump said “if we can, through executive action." He gave a lot more details in a 2023 post on his campaign website . In it, he said he would issue an executive order the first day of his presidency, making it clear that federal agencies “require that at least one parent be a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident for their future children to become automatic U.S. citizens.” Trump wrote that the executive order would make clear that children of people in the U.S. illegally “should not be issued passports, Social Security numbers, or be eligible for certain taxpayer funded welfare benefits.” This would almost certainly end up in litigation. Nowrasteh from the Cato Institute said the law is clear that birthright citizenship can’t be ended by executive order but that Trump may be inclined to take a shot anyway through the courts. “I don’t take his statements very seriously. He has been saying things like this for almost a decade," Nowrasteh said. "He didn’t do anything to further this agenda when he was president before. The law and judges are near uniformly opposed to his legal theory that the children of illegal immigrants born in the United States are not citizens." Trump could steer Congress to pass a law to end birthright citizenship but would still face a legal challenge that it violates the Constitution.

NEW YORK, Nov 24 — The FBI has warned the NBA that many recent home burglaries targeting professional athletes and high net worth individuals may be connected to sophisticated, transnational theft rings, the league said in a memo obtained by Reuters on Friday. Two players in the NBA had their homes broken into in recent weeks, according to media reports, along with the NFL’s twice MVP Patrick Mahomes and his Kansas City Chiefs teammate Travis Kelce, who is dating pop superstar Taylor Swift. The memo, which the NBA directed to teams across the league, advised that players should install updated security systems and utilise protective guard services when they are away from home for extended periods of time. “NBA Security received a briefing from the Federal Bureau of Investigation (‘FBI’) that connected many of the home burglaries to transnational South American Theft Groups (‘SATGs’),” the memo read. “These SATGs are reportedly well-organised, sophisticated rings that incorporate advanced techniques and technologies, including pre-surveillance, drones, and signal jamming devices.” The FBI said that the homes that were broken into were all unoccupied and, in most cases, were equipped with alarm systems that had not been activated, according to the memo. The FBI did not immediately respond to a request for comment. The memo is similar in nature to a document that the NFL sent this week, in which the league advised players to ramp up home security. Around-the-clock media reports and team schedules make it easy to know when players are on the road for extended periods of time and the NFL urged players to exercise caution in what they post to social media. The NFL said that surveillance tactics included attempted home deliveries and individuals posing as joggers or home maintenance workers. — Reuters

( ) shares are ending the week on a high. In morning trade, the infant formula company's shares are up 18% to $5.70. Why are A2 Milk shares ending the week with a bang? Investors have been scrambling to buy the company's shares this morning after it released a trading update ahead of its annual general meeting. According to the release, business has been stronger than expected during the first half, which has led to a revenue guidance upgrade. But the bigger news is that A2 Milk is finally going to start sharing its profits with its shareholders. After sitting on a mountain of cash for some time, the company has decided that now is the time to pay . Revenue guidance Let's start with its revenue guidance upgrade. Management advised that year to date trading is ahead of plan and the guidance it provided in August. This is primarily due to a significant increase in MVM external ingredient sales compared to plan. This is being driven by higher global dairy Ttade prices, currency impacts, and changes in product mix. However, this is expected to have an immaterial impact on EBITDA and a slightly dilutive impact on gross margin and its EBITDA margin. Outside this, management notes that English Label infant milk formula (IMF) sales and Liquid Milk sales are slightly ahead of plan year to date. In light of the above, the company is now forecasting mid to high single-digit revenue growth in FY 2025 versus FY 2024. This compares favourably to its previous guidance of mid single-digit growth. A2 Milk's EBITDA margin as a percentage of revenue in FY 2025 is still expected to be broadly in line with FY 2024. This includes its first half margin being down and its second half margin being up compared with the prior year. Dividend policy While the above is positive, the main thing driving A2 Milk shares higher today is likely to be the establishment of a dividend policy. The company notes that its dividend policy targets a payout ratio range of between 60% and 80% of net profit after tax excluding non-recurring and other items (normalised NPAT). This dividend policy commences immediately and the first interim dividend is expected to be declared in February 2025 with a payout ratio of 60% of normalised NPAT. The company also advised that it would consider special dividends in time, once it has executed its strategy and risk mitigation. If A2 Milk had paid out 60% of its earnings per share in FY 2024, it would have meant a dividend of 12.6 cents per share. This equates to a 2.6% based on yesterday's close price. The company's chair, Pip Greenwood, said: The a2 Milk Company has made considerable progress in developing its operating model and creating a more resilient business. Given this progress and our strong balance sheet position, the Board believes the time is right to introduce a dividend policy that delivers sustainable cash returns to shareholders over time. Commenting on the dividend policy, A2 Milk's CEO, David Bortolussi, said: I am pleased to introduce The a2 Milk Company's first dividend policy to reward our shareholders for their support over many years and to reflect the significant progress made since we announced our refreshed growth strategy in 2021.Blockchain Market Expansion and Growth Forecast 2024-2031

Caterpillar Inc. Maintains Dividend(Reuters) – OpenAI said on Monday it has released its artificial intelligence model, which creates video from text, to ChatGPT Plus and Pro users, expanding its foray into multimodal AI technologies. The Microsoft-backed company, which kicked off a generative AI craze with the launch of its ChatGPT chatbot in November 2022, aims to target similar text-to-video tools from Meta and Alphabet’s Google, along with Stability AI’s Stable Video Diffusion. The AI model, named Sora, was first introduced in February, but its access was limited to safety testers in its research preview phase. It is now available to ChatGPT Plus and Pro users as Sora Turbo at no additional cost. “We’re working on tailored pricing for different types of users, which we plan to make available early next year,” the company said in a blog post. Users will be able to generate videos up to 1080p resolution, up to 20 seconds long and in widescreen, vertical or square aspect ratios. OpenAI said while Sora would not yet be available in EU countries, Switzerland and the UK, the AI model would be accessible in other regions where ChatGPT is present. The company also said it will block the creation and upload of damaging forms of abuse, such as child sexual abuse materials and sexual deepfakes, on Sora to prevent its misuse. “Uploads of people will be limited at launch, but we intend to roll the feature out to more users as we refine our deepfake mitigations,” it said.
