Nagono, a junior forward from Japan, led the Yellowjackets and ranked second in the GNAC with 11 goals, also earning a first team All-GNAC nod in the process. He scored nine of his goals in conference play and had a pair of game-winning goals, as well. MSUB finished the season 6-6-6 overall, going forward.Middle East latest: Syria's forces withdraw from Homs, a key link between the capital and coastAfter a full Saturday shuttling her two kids to football and play-dates across Manhattan, Neha Ruch, 39, finally carved out a few precious minutes to exercise at 6.15pm. She didn’t even bother to change clothes before hopping onto her elliptical machine in a closet-turned-home-gym. After 15 minutes, the interruptions started. First, her husband poked his head in – their daughter was pleading for her to say good night. No problem, Ruch thought. She sat with her daughter for a while and then came back to the machine. But just as she was breaking a sweat, her son wandered over, asking for help finding something to do. She sighed and turned off the machine. “I had left the door wide open,” she said. After helping him, she surrendered to the couch. It’s a story that’s played out in millions of homes, as women feel pulled between taking care of themselves and taking care of family. In one recent study of 400,000 Americans, only 33 per cent of women met weekly recommendations for aerobic exercise, as opposed to 43 per cent of men. Other studies, including a 2017 study of 147 countries , have confirmed this phenomenon across ages and demographics. Experts say this exercise gender gap has a lot to do with the disproportionate amount of time and labour women devote to caring for the home and for others. It’s also consistent with research suggesting that, on the whole, women tend to prioritise other people’s health above their own, experts said. “They make the time for themselves when there is no one else to be taken care of,” said Stephanie Roth-Goldberg, a clinical social worker and therapist in New York. Among her patients, the attitude is, “Where can I sneak this in?” she said. Over time, this exercise shortfall can have serious implications on women’s health and quality of life . While women live an average of six years longer than men, they spend a greater percentage of their lives in poor health, suffering from conditions like heart disease, diabetes or depression. And yet a 2024 paper suggests that, compared to men, they may benefit more from the same dose of exercise. “Doing something was better than nothing for both,” said Dr Martha Gulati, the study’s co-author and the associate director of the Barbra Streisand Women’s Heart Center at Cedars-Sinai Hospital. But, for reasons not fully understood, “women get more bang for their buck”. The gender gap starts in childhood, and the older we get, the harder it is to close, according to researchers. For example, starting in their tweens, young men still generally have greater access to sports facilities and athletic opportunities than young women, said Melissa Bopp, a professor of kinesiology at Penn State University who studies exercise and gender. In 2019 , about 3.4 million girls played high school sports, more than a million fewer than boys. As a result, she said, more men than women enter adulthood feeling confident in their physical abilities and comfortable in settings like gyms and weight rooms. Women also report feeling less safe when exercising, she added, and report much higher rates of harassment than men. Even when they do feel comfortable, women may not always experience the same emotional benefits. “Men often report that they’re exercising because they actually enjoy it,” Dr Gulati said, while research suggests that women are more likely to work out for appearance reasons, such as losing weight , which can make it less of a stress reliever . “If we don’t find joy, we won’t necessarily carve out time for it.” Experts say the greatest barrier to exercise for many women is free time – specifically, social norms informing how women should spend it , and the division of labour at home . Women, on average, have 13 per cent less free time than men, according to a 2024 report, primarily because they shoulder more unpaid household work. The report also found the group with the least amount is 35- to 44-year-old women, who have an hour less daily free time than their male counterparts. Even in homes where men and women share domestic responsibilities, women often find themselves with less control over their time, said Eve Rodsky, a writer and activist . When researching her book Fair Play, which offers solutions for more equitable divisions of labour, Rodsky interviewed 500 couples and found that men tended to take on responsibilities that they could plan around their work and leisure schedules, such as mowing the lawn or making home repairs. Women were more likely to shoulder tasks that had to be completed around other people’s schedules, she said, such as making kids’ lunches before school or cooking dinner. A 2023 survey found that only 4 per cent of mothers considered their own health as a measure of their success, while 31 per cent saw their children’s health in these terms. For some women, having to plan their workouts around other people’s needs can mean sacrificing sleep, Roth-Goldberg said, or social opportunities. “The roles that we typically play in our household aren’t going to shift just because we decide to run a marathon.” But even with these sacrifices, making time to move in a way that boosts your physical and mental health is often worth it, she added. One way to move more is to find a workout buddy. “For women in particular, having someone to exercise with is very important,” Dr Bopp said. Not only can it create accountability , she said, but it can also “help make you feel more comfortable in an exercise space”. Another trick, if you struggle putting your desire to exercise ahead of other people’s needs, is to reframe physical activity as being a part of your caregiving, Dr Bopp said. In other words: “Take care of yourself so you can take care of others,” she said. Lastly, remember that any movement is better than no movement, and grabbing a few minutes for yourself throughout the day can have a big impact over time, Dr Gulati said. And perhaps most important, experts said, celebrate the movement you are able to fit in. Among the couples she interviewed, Rodsky found that the women who successfully kept up long-term exercise routines were the ones who showed themselves compassion for ebbs and flows along the way. As for Ruch, who founded an advocacy group for women who choose to pause their careers after children, she’s working on “feeling good about the ‘good enough’ workout. For right now.” By Danielle Friedman © The New York Times Company The article originally appeared in The New York Times .

Real Madrid suffered a 2-1 LaLiga defeat at Athletic Bilbao as Kylian Mbappe missed from the penalty spot again. Alex Berenguer prodded the hosts ahead after 53 minutes before Mbappe – who failed to convert a Champions League penalty against Liverpool last week – sent his kick too close to Bilbao goalkeeper Julen Agirrezabala. Jude Bellingham appeared to have rescued a point for Real after scoring for the fourth successive league game 12 minutes from time. 📸 PORTERAZO. JULEN, JULEN! JULEN JULEN! 🦁 — Athletic Club (@AthleticClub) But Federico Valverde’s mistake two minutes later gifted Gorka Guruzeta the winner in front of a delirious San Mames crowd. On a busy night of second-round Copa del Rey action, Villarreal suffered a shock 1-0 defeat at Pontevedra while there were wins for Real Betis, Rayo Vallecano and Valencia. Fiorentina went out of the Coppa Italia to Empoli on penalties on an emotional night at Stadio Artemio Franchi. Viola were back in action after Edoardo Bove’s health scare forced their weekend league fixture with Inter Milan to be abandoned during the first half. Midfielder Bove collapsed on the pitch and required emergency medical treatment. He was taken to hospital but regained consciousness in intensive care. Esposito's penalty books Empoli's place in the next round 💪 — Lega Serie A (@SerieA_EN) Empoli led at half-time through Emmanuel Ekong’s fourth-minute opener before Moise Kean and Riccardo Sottil put Fiorentina ahead. Sebastiano Esposito struck 15 minutes from time to make it 2-2 and take the last-16 tie into extra time, Empoli eventually winning 4-3 on penalties. Benjamin Sesko opened the scoring and Luis Openda struck twice as RB Leipzig brushed aside Eintracht Frankfurt 3-0 in the German DFB Pokal. Second-half goals from Denis Vavro, Jonas Wind and Yannick Gerhardt saw Wolfsburg beat Hoffenheim 3-0. Cologne knocked out Hertha Berlin 2-1 after extra time with Dejan Ljubicic converting a penalty in the final seconds, while Augsburg prevailed 5-4 on penalties against Karlsruhe after a 2-2 draw.Southampton boss Russell Martin has said that Jack Stephens' red card "cost" his side in their 5-1 defeat by Chelsea in the Premier League on Wednesday. Replays showed that the Saints captain pulled Chelsea full-back Marc Cucurella by his hair as Southampton had an attacking corner. Referee Tony Harrington referred to the pitchside monitor before showing Stephens a straight red card for the incident. "I don't think anyone will be more disappointed than Jack," Martin said. "He'll be hurt more than anyone and it changed the game a bit for us tonight. "I'm disappointed for him and us, it's a moment of madness that has really cost us." This was Stephens' second sending-off of the season, having previously been dismissed when Manchester United won at St Mary's in September. He is the first Southampton player to be sent off twice in a Premier League season since Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg in 2018-19. "I've not even seen it but they explained to me what happened," Martin added. "I don't think it's really violent conduct but there's no explanation for it really, is there?"

White House says at least 8 US telecom firms, dozens of nations impacted by China hacking campaignMINOT — Gov. Doug Burgum will be the governor for only 11 more days. Despite this, he was obliged to deliver a budget address to a joint session of the North Dakota Legislature, which is in Bismarck meeting for its organizational session. This makes no sense. The budget address represents Burgum's priorities, which, while there is no doubt a significant amount of overlap, are not necessarily those of Gov.-elect Kelly Armstrong, who voters chose to replace Burgum in November. Which means that Burgum's address to lawmakers was a colossal waste of time. This isn't Burgum's fault, as, again, the budget address is obligatory, but the degree to which he indulged himself during the speech sure is. Burgum joked at the beginning of the address that he'd been given an hour to speak but would talk for as long as he wanted to anyway. Boy, did he, speaking for nearly one hour and 45 minutes. No wonder this guy has had such a rocky relationship with the Legislature (you can watch the full address here). Burgum's speech was one part self-congratulatory victory lap and one part detailed budget proposal. The latter is pointless because, again, Burgum will only be in office for 11 more days, so the whole thing was an exercise in Burgum patting himself on the back. Don't get me wrong, Burgum has accomplished some meaningful things during his time in office and deserves credit for them. He was also, I'll admit, open-handed with his praise for other state officials and the lawmakers. I don't want to come off as mean. Anyone familiar with my work knows I've been deeply disappointed with Burgum since he decided to further his political career by betraying his moderate inclinations and going full-on MAGA. It's just that I'm not sure going the better part of an hour over the schedule with a superfluous budget address is all that couth, whoever it is that's doing it. And I'm not sure why we're spending time and taxpayer dollars on a budget address that, as a practical matter of policy, doesn't amount to a hill of beans. It's time for lawmakers to put an end to this, so that in four years hence (or eight years, if he's reelected) we're not subjected to outgoing Gov. Kelly Armstrong standing before the Legislature delivering a budget address that may or may not reflect the priorities of his just-elected successor. We need to shake up the timing so that we aren't wasting time on a pointless budget address from a lame-duck governor who won't be involved in the budget and policy decisions of the upcoming legislative session. Section 54-03.1-02 of the North Dakota Century Code requires the Legislature to meet for an organizational session no earlier than Dec. 1 and no later than Dec. 15 of even-numbered years. In cycles when we elect a new governor (or reelect an incumbent), the swearing-in happens on Dec. 15. It seems like we could tweak this timing. Maybe the law could establish the swearing-in date for new governors as the first day of the organizational session. However we do it, we should ensure that the person delivering the budget address — who spent what is likely a not-small amount of state resources on crafting the complicated speech — is the same person who will be in office while the budgets and policies for the next biennium are set.
Mohamed Salah extended Liverpool’s perfect Champions League record as they won 1-0 at Girona to claim a sixth victory out of six. Salah nervelessly converted a 63rd-minute penalty, his 16th goal of the season, after French referee Benoit Bastien had been advised to take another look at Donny van de Beek’s clumsy challenge on Luis Diaz. In the process, he became just the 11th man to score 50 goals in the competition – Real Madrid’s Kylian Mbappe later also joined that exclusive club – on a night when victory at the Estadi Montilivi meant the six-time European champions will enter 2025 sitting proudly at the top of the table. ⭐️ A FIVE STAR PERFORMANCE ⭐️ | — FC Bayern (@FCBayernEN) France international Michael Olise produced a moment of magic to set the seal on Bayern Munich’s demolition of Shakhtar Donetsk and ease them towards the knockout stage. Olise’s brilliant stoppage-time run and finish capped a 5-1 victory for the Germans, in which he had early scored from the penalty spot, in Gelsenkirchen. Kevin’s fifth-minute strike had given the home side the perfect start, but Konrad Laimer levelled before Thomas Muller’s 55th goal in the competition sent the visitors in ahead at the break and set the stage for Olise’s double either side of Jamal Musiala’s strike. Jude Bellingham breathed life back into Real Madrid’s campaign as they held off Atalanta to earn a 3-2 victory in Bergamo. 🫲 🫱 — Real Madrid C.F. 🇬🇧🇺🇸 (@realmadriden) After Charles De Ketelaere had cancelled out Mbappe’s opener from the penalty spot, second-half goals from Vinicius Junior and Bellingham in quick succession put the visitors in charge, although Ademola Lookman’s 65th-minute strike meant the contest was alive until the final whistle. Ross Barkley took Aston Villa a step closer to automatic qualification with a late winner against RB Leipzig in Germany. Villa had led twice through John McGinn and Jhon Duran, but equalisers from Lois Openda and Christoph Baumgartner kept Leipzig in it until substitute Barkley struck five minutes from time to snatch a 3-2 victory. Goals from Goncalo Ramos, Nuno Mendes and substitute Desire Doue – his first in the competition – handed French champions Paris St Germain a much-needed three points after a comfortable 3-0 win at RB Salzburg. He's making a list and checking it twiceB04 won and Nordi scored – nice! 🎅 — Bayer 04 Leverkusen (@bayer04_en) Nordi Mukiele left it late to end Inter Milan’s unbeaten Champions League record as Bayer Leverkusen claimed a dramatic 1-0 victory at the BayArena. Mukiele struck in the 90th minute to inflict a first defeat across six games in this season’s competition on the Serie A champions – it was also the first goal they have conceded. Casper Nielsen came off the bench to fire Club Brugge to a 2-1 home victory over Sporting Lisbon after Eduardo Quaresma’s own goal had handed them a way back into the game following Geny Catamo’s early opener. Julien Le Cardinal’s first-half strike was enough to handed Brest a 1-0 victory over Eredivisie leaders PSV Eindhoven, while Kasper Schmeichel’s save from Marko Pjaca’s close-range 80th-minute header ensured Celtic returned from Dinamo Zagreb with a 0-0 draw.
