Innocan Pharma Provides its Annual "State of Research and Development" Update for 2024None
Things to watch this week in the Big Ten Conference: Game of the week No. 5 Indiana (10-0, 7-0 Big Ten, No. 5 CFP ) at No. 2 Ohio State (9-1, 6-1, No. 2 CFP), Saturday, noon ET (Fox) This marks the 98th matchup between these two teams, but it's only the fourth time both teams have been ranked. Although Indiana is unbeaten, its soft schedule means the Hoosiers aren't assured of making the 12-team field if they lose this game. The only team with a winning record that Indiana has beaten is Washington (6-5). Ohio State needs a win to have a realistic shot at a rematch with top-ranked Oregon in the Big Ten championship game. Ohio State has beaten Indiana 28 straight times since the Hoosiers posted back-to-back victories in 1987-88. The undercard No. 4 Penn State (9-1, 6-1, No. 4 CFP) at Minnesota (6-4, 4-3), Saturday, 3:30 p.m. (CBS) This is likely Penn State's biggest obstacle on its way to a potential playoff berth. The Nittany Lions' lone remaining regular-season game is a Nov. 30 home matchup with Maryland (4-6, 1-6). Minnesota has had an extra week to prepare this game since its 26-19 loss at Rutgers on Nov. 9, which snapped a four-game winning streak. Penn State and Minnesota have split their last four meetings, with the home team winning each time. Impact players Penn State DE Abdul Carter has multiple tackles for loss in each of his last three games. He ranks second among all Bowl Subdivision players in tackles for loss (17 1⁄2). Southern California RB Woody Marks rushed for a career-high 146 yards in a 28-20 win over Nebraska. Marks has six 100-yard rushing performances this season. Rutgers RB Kyle Monangai is the first Scarlet Knight to rush for 1,000 yards in back-to-back seasons since Ray Rice did it three straight years from 2005-07. Monangai has run for 1,028 yards this season and rushed for 1,262 yards last year. Oregon OLB Matayo Uiagalelei recorded a sack and had a game-clinching interception as the top-ranked Ducks won 16-13 at Wisconsin last week. He has 8 1⁄2 sacks this season to rank second in the Big Ten. Inside the numbers Four of the top seven Bowl Subdivision quarterbacks in passer rating are from the Big Ten. Indiana's Kurtis Rourke is second, Ohio State's Will Howard is third, Penn State's Drew Allar is fifth and Oregon's Dillon Gabriel is seventh. ... Illinois QB Luke Altmyer has thrown 18 touchdown passes with only three interceptions. The only Power Four quarterback with a better touchdown/interception ratio while throwing at least 10 touchdown passes is Clemson's Cade Klubnik, who has 26 touchdowns and four interceptions. ... Rutgers' three Big Ten wins matches its largest total since joining the league in 2014. Rutgers also had three conference wins in 2014, 2017, 2020 and 2023. A victory Saturday over No. 24 Illinois would give Rutgers three straight Big Ten wins for the first time. ... Washington's 31-19 win over UCLA was its 20th straight home victory, representing its second-longest such streak in school history. The Huskies won 45 straight home games from 1908-17. ... Wisconsin heads to Nebraska this week having won its last 10 matchups with the Cornhuskers. Now don't get upset Penn State justifiably is favored on the road against Minnesota, but Bet MGM's 12 1⁄2-point spread seems way too big. Expect this game to have a single-digit margin.
Trump taps Rollins as agriculture chief, completing proposed slate of Cabinet secretaries
Netanyahu's office says his security Cabinet has approved ceasefire deal with HezbollahWASHINGTON — The Senate is pushing toward a vote on legislation that would provide full Social Security benefits to millions of people, setting up a potential passage in the final days of the lame-duck Congress. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., said Thursday he would begin the process for a final vote on the bill, known as the Social Security Fairness Act, which would eliminate policies that currently limit Social Security payouts for roughly 2.8 million people. Schumer said the bill would “ensure Americans are not erroneously denied their well-earned Social Security benefits simply because they chose at some point to work in their careers in public service.” The legislation passed the House on a bipartisan vote, and a Senate version of the bill introduced last year gained 62 cosponsors. But the bill still needs support from at least 60 senators to pass Congress. It would then head to President Biden. At least one GOP senator who signed onto the bill last year, Sen. Mike Braun of Indiana, said he was still “weighing” whether to vote for the bill next week. “Nothing ever gets paid for, so if it’s further indebtedness, I don’t know,” he said. Decades in the making, the bill would repeal two federal policies – the Windfall Elimination Provision and the Government Pension Offset – that broadly reduce payments to two groups of Social Security recipients: people who also receive a pension from a job that is not covered by Social Security and surviving spouses of Social Security recipients who receive a government pension of their own. The bill would add more strain on the Social Security Trust funds, which were already estimated to be unable to pay out full benefits beginning in 2035. It would add an estimated $195 billion to federal deficits over 10 years, according to the Congressional Budget Office. Sen. John Thune, the no. 2 Republican in leadership, acknowledged that the policy has strong bipartisan support, but said some Republicans also want to see it “fixed in the context of a broader Social Security reform effort.” Conservatives have opposed the bill, decrying its cost. “Even for something that people consider to be a good cause, it shows a lack of concern for the future of the country, so I think it would be a big mistake,” said Sen. Rand Paul, a Republican from Kentucky. Still, other Republicans have pushed Schumer to bring it up for a vote. Sen. Bill Cassidy, R-La., said last month that the current federal limitations “penalize families across the country who worked a public service job for part of their career with a separate pension. We’re talking about police officers, firefighters, teachers, and other public employees who are punished for serving their communities.” He predicted the bill would pass.

We are a quarter of the way through the 2024-25 NHL season, and some teams across the league have been pretty significant disappointments that have failed to meet expectations. Let's talk about four of them. Nashville Predators The Predators entered the season with sky-high expectations after a busy offseason that saw them add two 40-goal scorers (Steven Stamkos and Jonathan Marchessault) and a top-four defenseman (Brady Skjei) to a roster that made the playoffs a year ago. A return to the playoffs should have been the bare-minimum expectation. Winning a round or two should have been reasonable. Competing for the Stanley Cup was not out of the question. Just 22 games into their season, they have the second-worst record in the league (.386 points percentage, just marginally ahead of the Chicago Blackhawks) and can't seem to do anything right. They are 30th in goals per game, 21st in goals against per game and their two biggest additions (Stamkos and Marchessault) have combined for just 11 goals. The worst sign of all is that they are losing despite getting really strong goaltending from Juuse Saros, who is having a big bounce-back year. Pittsburgh Penguins After two straight non-playoff seasons, no postseason series wins since the 2018 season and with an aging core, there should not have been overly high expectations for the Penguins this season. They are still failing to meet them. Not only are the Penguins on their way to a third-straight non-playoff season, they have been one of the worst teams in the league and have the worst record in the NHL's Eastern Conference. Entering play on Tuesday their 91 goals against and 3.96 goals against per game were both the worst in the NHL, while they have developed a crushing habit of consistently blowing multiple-goal leads. They do not defend well, they have some of the league's worst goaltending ( 28th in save percentage ) and outside of captain Sidney Crosby and the occasional brilliance from Evgeni Malkin, there is simply not much here to get excited about. They were not supposed to be good. They were not supposed to be this bad. Boston Bruins The Bruins have been seemingly overdue for a decline at some point, and it finally looks like it is here. At the first quarter point of the season the Bruins find themselves on the outside of the Eastern Conference playoff picture, already fired their head coach (Jim Montgomery) and still have a lot of the same flaws that have existed for the past couple of years (specifically the lack of a true No. 1 center). They spent big money in free agency on forward Elias Lindholm and defenseman Nikita Zadorov, and both have been underwhelming. Starting goalie Jeremy Swayman has also been off to a slow start after signing a massive eight-year, $66 million contract extension. After being one of the NHL's best teams the past two seasons, this is a sudden regression. Edmonton Oilers The Oilers were one game away from winning the Stanley Cup in 2024, have two of the best players in hockey in Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl and also have one of the league's best defensive pairings in Evan Bouchard and Mattias Ekholm. The problem? They have almost nothing after those four players. At least nothing that is playing well this season. Only three forwards on the roster (McDavid, Draisaitl and Mattias Janmark) have at least 10 points this season, while their goaltending with Stuart Skinner and Calvin Pickard is only 27th in the league in save percentage . No depth, no goaltending and a team that is reliant on just a handful of players is not going to go far.

Iowa cornerback Jermari Harris has opted out of the remainder of the 2024 season in order to prepare for the NFL draft, according to a report by 247Sports.com . The 6-foot-1 sixth-year senior from Chicago has recorded 27 tackles, three interceptions and a team-high seven pass breakups in 10 games for the Hawkeyes this season. That includes a pick-6 in a 38-21 win over Troy earlier this season. Iowa (6-4, 4-3 Big Ten) plays at Maryland on Saturday before closing out its regular season at home against Nebraska on Nov. 29. The Hawkeyes are already bowl eligible, so Harris is likely opting out of three games in total. After missing the entire 2022 season due to an ankle injury, Harris was suspended for two games of the following season for his involvement in the gambling investigation into Iowa athletics. He later emerged as the Hawkeyes' top cornerback, earning the team's comeback player of the year award after compiling 42 tackles, one interception and eight pass breakups. Harris will finish his college career with 105 tackles and eight interceptions. --Field Level Media
After Posting Record Revenues from Continuing Operations in Q3 2024, Company Prepares for Strong Market Expansion and Growth Trajectory BATAVIA, Ill., Dec. 03, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- High Wire Networks, Inc. (OTCQB: HWNI), an award-winning leading global provider of managed cybersecurity solutions, has initiated the next phase of its new strategic growth plan with the addition of new sales team members and additional marketing resources. These moves are aimed at accelerating growth in monthly recurring revenue (MRR) from the company's Overwatch cyber portfolio, and building upon the record revenue from continuing operations generated in the third quarter of 2024 . The company has appointed industry veterans with proven track records in managed cybersecurity who are now focused on attracting larger channel partners who represent enterprise-class clients. These efforts align with the company's transition to increased average contract size and higher average MRR per channel partner which began earlier this year. The company will continue to support and grow its well-established base of smaller managed service providers (MSPs) and enable them to grow their managed cybersecurity business. High Wire's sales organization will also continue to evolve with the goal of creating competitive advantages for all of its channel partners through hyperautomation and greater agility as provided by the company's Overwatch managed cybersecurity platform. "In the second and third quarter of this year we were intensely focused on making the changes necessary to transform our Overwatch business, which has quickly evolved from 'start-up mode' to becoming recognized by Frost & Sullivan and others as one of the best Managed Security Services Providers (MSSPs) in the country,” stated High Wire Networks CEO, Mark Porter. "We believe this elevated status reflects how we have assembled the strongest and most experienced management team in the managed cybersecurity space and are now ready to scale at a much greater pace,” continued Porter. "We are now focused on accelerating revenue growth and tracking our MRR 'exit velocity' at the end of each quarter, and this is keeping us on track for our strongest quarter yet in Q4.” The Overwatch operations team continues to develop and deploy the company's proprietary hyperautomations, with this enabling revenue growth and gross profit expansion at a faster pace than the need for adding personnel to the security operations team. "We see this leverage in our operational model as our key to profitability and stronger cash flow, and we are pushing forward on this path very aggressively,” added Porter. The new Overwatch team additions will report directly to the company's chief revenue officer, Mark Dallmeier, who joined High Wire in third quarter of this year. Dallmeier has brought to Overwatch more than 27 years of senior leadership experience in taking technology and managed services companies into 'hypergrowth.' Dallmeier's appointment followed the earlier appointment of veteran cybersecurity thought leader and executive, Edward Vasko, CISSP, as High Wire's chief operations officer and chief executive officer of the Overwatch managed cybersecurity services division. Vasko brings more than 33 years of experience and achievement in the cybersecurity industry, including business formation and product development, and leading strategic M&As and major exits. "Our greater focus on MRR and team building efforts have already resulted in the largest pipeline of large deals in our company's history,” added Porter. "Several of these are currently in the final closing stages. "Combined with now a much cleaner capital structure, we are well positioned for an uplisting to a major exchange-especially given how the capital markets are looking the best they've been in a long time. Capable players in the banking space have expressed strong interest and confidence in assisting us with such an endeavor and we're quickly moving forward to seize the opportunity.” To learn more about High Wire and its award-winning managed cybersecurity services go to HighWireNetworks.com or view the company's free video series on its YouTube channel.

Israel has that will see both sides withdrawing from southern Lebanon. The duration has not been defined, and Benjamin Netanyahu, the Israeli prime minister, said the timing depended on how well it was observed by the Iran-backed terror group. “We reserve the right to use all forms of military force if Hezbollah begins rearming contrary to the agreement,” he said. Speaking to the nation on live TV, said Hezbollah was no longer the same organisation, adding: “We set them back decades. We have destroyed many missiles and rockets, we have killed many terrorists.” Mr Netanyahu listed three reasons for why Israel was willing to end the war now, saying: “The first reason is to focus on the Iranian threat, and I will not expand on that.” The second reason, he said, was to give Israeli soldiers “a breather and replenish stocks. And I say it openly, it is no secret that there have been big delays in weapons and munitions deliveries”. He added: “These delays will be resolved soon. We will receive supplies of advanced weaponry that will keep our soldiers safe and give us more strike force to complete our mission,” he added, in what appeared to be a hint at a change in US policy . The third reason, Mr Netanyahu concluded, was for Israel to separate its war fronts and isolate . “From day two of the war, Hamas was counting on Hezbollah to fight by its side. With Hezbollah out of the picture, Hamas is left on its own. We will increase our pressure on Hamas and that will help us in our sacred mission of he said. The deal follows a US ceasefire proposal largely built on UN Security Council resolution 1701, which ended the last war between Israel and Hezbollah in 2006. It stipulates that Israel must withdraw its forces from Lebanon, while Hezbollah must remove its forces from the south of the country, north of the . Israel was expected to receive assurances from the US that it can act against violations of the deal as long as it is co-ordinated with Washington. The US will lead an oversight committee monitoring Hezbollah’s activities in Lebanon. Ha’aretz, the Israeli newspaper, reported that the ceasefire would be carried out in several stages, eventually leading to negotiations over the land border between Lebanon and Israel, which remains disputed. Mike Waltz, Donald Trump’s pick for national security adviser once he reclaims the White House, said the president-elect deserved credit for the deal. “Everyone is coming to the table because of President Trump,” said Mr Waltz. “His resounding victory sent a clear message to the rest of the world that chaos won’t be tolerated. “I’m glad to see concrete steps towards de-escalation in the Middle East. But let’s be clear – the Iran regime is the root cause of the chaos and terror that has been unleashed across the region. We will not tolerate the status quo of their support for terrorism.” Mr Netanyahu also threatened Syria’s president, Bashar al-Assad, saying: we are systematically blocking attempts by Iran, Hezbollah and the Syrian army to transfer weapons to Lebanon. Assad must understand that he is playing with fire.” But Yair Lapid, Israel’s opposition leader, criticised the prime minister following his speech, saying “the greatest disaster” in Israel’s history had happened on his watch. “No deal with Hezbollah will erase the abandonments. No statement to the press will change history,” he said. Avigdor Lieberman, the leader of the Yisrael Beitenu party, ridiculed Mr Netanyahu, saying he had “surrendered to terror”. , the national security minister, also criticised the ceasefire deal, saying it would not bring back safety to the residents of northern Israel. “The Lebanese army does not have the authority at all, and certainly not the ability to overcome Hezbollah,” he said.WEST POINT, N.Y.

Shailene Woodley didn’t want to say much about Aaron Rodgers in a new interview, because, she said, reflecting on her relationship with the controversial NFL quarterback “always makes me cry.” During an overnight camping trip in Malibu with a reporter , the 33-year-old actor and environmentalist also said that her relationship with Rodgers, which reportedly began during the COVID-19 pandemic and ended in February 2022, “was not right.” “But it was beautiful,” she added in the interview published Tuesday. Later in the conversation, Woodley also alluded to how difficult the relationship became and how devastated she was when it ended. She and Rodgers reportedly began dating during the pandemic lockdown in July 2020, around the time he ended his two-year relationship with race car driver Danica Patrick. The revealed their engagement in 2021. “I had a really awful, traumatic thing happen in early 2022,” Woodley told Outside later in the conversation. Yes, the “Divergent” star wasn’t being specific here about the “awful, traumatic thing,” but Outside noted that her engagement to the former Green Bay Packers quarterback was called off that February. “I felt like I lost my soul, my self, my happiness, my joy,” Woodley said. “I really understood depression and anxiety and, like, complete soul detachment.” Woodley also said she chose to remain in a “toxic situation” because she was empathizing with “someone else.” “Empathy,” she says, “kind of kept me in this loop of feeling everything for everyone.” For Outside magazine, the “Big Little Lies” actor was being profiled as the publication’s Outsider of the Year. In a previous interview, Woodley taking place in the fall of 2021, a time that coincided with the final months of her relationship with Rodgers and when he sparked national controversy by ranting critically about the COVID-19 vaccine. In a 2023 interview with Net-A-Porter’s Porter magazine, Woodley talked about dating “somebody in America who was very, very famous,” without naming Rodgers. In the fall of 2021, she also was filming the series, “Three Women.” But she talked about how it was difficult to focus on her work. “It was winter in New York, and my personal life was (expletive), so it felt like a big pain bubble for eight months,” Woodley said to Porter magazine. “I was so grateful that at least I could go to work and cry and process my emotions through my character,” Woodley said. In early November 2021, Rodgers did serious damage to his public image as a popular NFL star by going on an angry anti-COVID vaccination rant on “The Pat McAfee Show.” The reigning Most Valuable Player was then accused of being an arrogant, narcissistic crackpot with a persecution complex after he claimed he was a victim of “the woke mob” and that the media had launched “a witch hunt” to pin him down on whether he had been vaccinated. Unfortunately for Woodley, she was caught up in Rodgers’ controversy, mainly by coming to his defense in ways that were seen as tone-deaf, given that public health officials had raised serious concerns about the potential harm caused by Rodgers’ anti-vaccination statements in the midst of a global pandemic. Woodley took to social media to post snarky, expletive-laced and even sexually suggestive Instagram defenses of Rodgers. Over the next month, one source close to Woodley and Rodgers told People that they were trying to make their relationship work, while another insider said that they “disagreed on a lot of things,” including politics, but that they tried to keep the peace by not debating those topics. But the likelihood of a split became apparent when the Chico-reared Rodgers failed to thank Woodley or even mention her name when he won his third NFL MVP award in early February 2022. Reports soon followed that they had ended their engagement. Rodgers then appeared again on “The Pat McAfee Show,” during which he said he didn’t regret speaking his mind about the COVID-19 vaccine, but said he regretted how those comments impacted his loved ones. Rodgers, , then apologized directly to Woodley — or “Shai” — and others, saying he was “very sorry” for the blowback they encountered. A year later, Woodley acknowledged to Porter that being in “a quote-unquote ‘famous’ relationship” became difficult. “It honestly never really hit me that millions of people around the world were actually watching these things and paid attention to them,” she said. “I watched (the) scrutiny, opinions, the desire for people to know my life and his life and our life — it just felt violating in a way that, before, it was fun. I’m a very private person, and so I found that any time I posted anything, I instantly felt like I was sharing too much of who I am with people I didn’t necessarily trust.”Sun Country Airlines Debuts First Ever Custom Aircraft Livery Celebrating Minnesota Golden Gopher AthleticsEsperanza En Escalante
