Bengaluru residents cut pothole-themed cake to express outrage over bad roads. Watch video
This stretch connecting Gunjur, Varthur, and Belagere to the Outer Ring Road (ORR) has become a daily nightmare for commuters.
In a creative form of protest, around 200 residents from Bengaluru’s Panathur area took to the streets on Saturday, cutting a cake designed to mimic a pothole-ridden road. Their demonstration brought attention to the deteriorating condition of the infamous S-Cross Road, urging the Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) to take swift action to widen the road and resolve the long-standing pothole problem.
The 1.5 km stretch connecting Gunjur, Varthur, and Belagere to the Outer Ring Road (ORR) has become a daily nightmare for commuters, The Hindu reported. This stretch, especially near the 100-meter Railway Under Bridge, is plagued by potholes and poor conditions.
Exactly a year ago, on December 14, 2023, over 500 residents protested by forming a human chain along the Belagere-Panathur stretch, demanding that the road be widened. Now, a year later, these residents are once again expressing their frustration.

Watch the video here:
How did the residents react?
Residents of the area shared videos on social media highlighting their plight, with one user commenting, "Pathetic road condition... full muddy road... nightmare for 2-wheelers."
Many X users reacted strongly to the situation. One user wrote, "It should be celebrated throughout the city. No concerned ministers or government employees want to face these issues. All accountable departments fail to address the problem, even as general employees pay the highest taxes and yet face the worst roads and lack of infrastructure."
Another resident added, "Being a tax-paying person for years, roads should have been a basic requirement. But in Benagaluru (Balagere), it has become a luxury. This cake-cutting celebration is not just for one year of suffering but represents at least 10 years of hardship—and many more to come."
Misappropriation of funds
Allegations of large-scale corruption recently surfaced as the Karnataka Anti-Corruption Forum filed a complaint with the Enforcement Directorate (ED) against nine individuals, including serving and retired IAS officers and contractors.
The alleged misappropriation involves funds totaling ₹46,300 crore, released for road development projects under the Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP).
The forum’s president, Ramesh NR, submitted the complaint on Tuesday, urging the ED to investigate the misuse of funds allocated between 2013 and the 2023-24 financial year.

AYESHA RASCOE, HOST:
People who live along America's coast are all facing the threat of rising ocean water due to climate change. We're going to hear from three communities trying to fortify their defenses, starting in Virginia with Katherine Hafner of member station WHRO.
KATHERINE HAFNER, BYLINE: Jamie Miller is the guy you call when something goes wrong with the least glamorous part of your home. He gets calls like...
JAMIE MILLER: I can't flush my toilet. I have sewage, you know, backing up in my house, or their yard smells like sewage, which wouldn't be fun.
HAFNER: Miller owns a septic repair business on Virginia's Middle Peninsula. It juts into the Chesapeake Bay. Lately, he's getting more and more of these types of calls. That's because as sea levels rise, the groundwater is rising, too. And that is swamping many backyard septic systems often used when you can't connect to a sewer line. They rely on dry soil to break down sewage. This area is especially vulnerable to rising waters in the Atlantic Ocean. Some residents here are now trying to turn this poop problem into a sort of boon for the community, people like Lewie Lawrence, head of the Middle Peninsula Planning District Commission. He says right now, residents often have to pay tens of thousands of dollars when their backyard system fails.
LEWIE LAWRENCE: We were watching millions of dollars being poured back into septic systems that are putting the same technology into the ground that is failing.
HAFNER: Lawrence helped bring in a company called Triangle Environmental. They're testing new septic technology here at a small brick house along a creek. Aaron Forbis-Stokes with Triangle shows how it all starts with a flush.
AARON FORBIS-STOKES: So we'll do the...
(SOUNDBITE OF TOILET FLUSHING)
FORBIS-STOKES: ...The lower-flush volume as if somebody just peed.
HAFNER: Just like any other backyard septic system, all the waste from this house first flows to an underground tank in the yard. But then the sewage is pumped up aboveground into something that looks kind of like a refrigerator or utility closet on a raised platform.
(SOUNDBITE OF MACHINE RUNNING)
HAFNER: Inside, a mix of filters and chemicals clean the wastewater. There's no price yet for this mini sewage plant invention, but Forbis-Stokes says it could help people fortify their homes.
FORBIS-STOKES: Our biggest goal with this system is pretty much to let people just to remain living where they live, even under the threat of changing climate conditions.
HAFNER: It sounds promising, but there's still a long way to go. Virginia has to approve the technology, and it needs to be affordable for homeowners, as they deal with sea level rise in the Atlantic driving up underground water levels.
HALLE PARKER, BYLINE: I'm WWNO's Halle Parker in Dulac, Louisiana, on the Bayou. Here, data shows the Gulf of Mexico is rising faster than almost anywhere else in the country. It's also home to several hundred residents who are members of the state-recognized tribe. They face a heartbreaking question - to stay or go. Their chief wants to do both.
DEVON PARFAIT: Our ideal would be to have a community to resettle to, some place that's further up north, but also keeping our community here and rebuilding it to be as resilient as possible, to work with the water and to be able to adapt to our changing climate.
PARKER: Devon Parfait leads the Dulac Band of the Biloxi-Chitamacha-Choctaw. His tribe is the result of racist policies of the 1800s like the Trail of Tears. Multiple Native groups were forced south to the swampy edge of the Gulf.
PARFAIT: Even back then, what people had considered unlivable lands.
PARKER: Now Parfait's tribe lives on the front line of sea level rise. They're vulnerable to more intense hurricanes that bring more flooding and higher storm surge. Until the tribe needs to move, eventually, he's looking for ways to adapt and fortify his community.
PARFAIT: There needs to be a place here, down the bayou, where people can go and be protected from these hurricanes.
PARKER: He wants a place that would act as a community and disaster center in the aftermath of hurricanes, one big, resilient solar-powered building for people to stay and regroup when homes are still unlivable. But he says this one idea comes with a high price tag for the tribe, $17 million. Parfait is trying to raise the funds, but his tribe is only recognized by the state of Louisiana, not federally, which makes it harder.
PARFAIT: We're basically just out on our own with no support from our federal government. We don't get any monetary support from our state government. There's no stipend.
PARKER: Instead, Parfait's tribe relies on grants or philanthropy. The chief hopes he'll be able to give his community something they've been stripped of in the past - a choice, even as the waters of the Gulf of Mexico continue to encroach.
EZRA DAVID ROMERO, BYLINE: I'm KQED's Ezra David Romero in San Francisco. This city's edge, with towering skyscrapers, metro lines and big tech companies is separated from San Francisco Bay by a sea wall that doubles as one of the city's main tourist attractions.
KRISTINA HILL: It is kind of an unusually fragile sea wall for a city of this size.
ROMERO: UC Berkeley professor Kristina Hill calls the seawall a joke because not only is it barely tall enough to keep water at bay now before major sea rise, it's also poorly built.
HILL: And there are even ships that were scuttled in it.
(SOUNDBITE OF WAVES CRASHING)
ROMERO: Hill says if no action is taken, the rising ocean could eventually overwhelm the existing seawall and flood the city's tourist center in downtown. Brad Benson knows all about this. He works for the Port of San Francisco.
BRAD BENSON: Essentially, what happens in a no-action scenario, is that all of the area that was filled gets reclaimed by the bay. And that goes as far in as Salesforce Tower.
ROMERO: Salesforce Tower is the tallest building in the city. It's about six blocks from the bay.
So the ocean really just wants to take it back...
BENSON: Yes.
ROMERO: ...Some way.
But San Francisco has a solution. The port, alongside the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, is working on a massive $13 billion plan to reinvent more than seven miles of the shoreline. It includes a higher seawall and fortifying shoreline structures, like the historic Ferry Building, with its clock tower that takes up about a city block on the waterfront.
(SOUNDBITE OF CLOCK RINGING)
ROMERO: Benson says the idea is to raise the huge building by 7 feet.
BENSON: They'd install a series of jacks underneath the whole building that are controlled by computer, where the whole building can be lifted at the same time to a new elevation.
ROMERO: But there's no guarantee San Francisco will implement this costly, elaborate plan. The city can't do it alone. Congress will have to approve it. If they get the money soon, Benson says San Francisco could be better protected from the Pacific Ocean by the 2040s. For NPR News, I'm Ezra David Romero in San Francisco.
RASCOE: This reporting comes from the environmental podcast, Sea Change, produced by member station WWNO and part of the NPR podcast network.

Chris Hemsworth and Elsa Pataky have introduced their followers to the new addition to their family.
The Spanish actor took to her official Instagram account to make an announcement that she and Hemsworth have become fur parents to a new dog.
In the post, Pataky posted a carousel with cute photos of the pooch, including one of herself cuddling the new addition.
"Our new member of the family, a beautiful German Shepherd," she penned.
"We are completely in love!" she added.
Hemsworth and Pataky are already parents to three human children, daughter India Rose, 12, and twin sons Sasha and Tristan, 10.
The family lives in Australia's Byron Bay on the New South Wales north coast. Home is a sprawling eight-bedroom mansion that sits on more than four hectares of land.
Elsa revealed recently that she wasn't always convinced about moving Down Under and had a very specific condition for the Thor star before she agreed to relocate.
"That was my deal with Chris," she told the Courier Mail.
"I said I would move to Australia but I wanted to live on a property, a farm, and have horses and he knew that."

What is an Anti-Choking Device and How Does it Work?
Delving deeper into how an Anti-Choking Device operates includes a keen understanding of its mechanics. Typically designed to restore normal breathing during choking, these devices particularly employ suction. In other words, a negative pressure is created, which makes for a strong sucking force that uses the object lodged in the throat to facilitate the flow of air into the lungs.

When Should You Use an Anti-Choking Device?
Identifying a Choking Incident
It is essential to pay attention to the signs of choking in order to offer the best help for someone who is in need. A person who is unable to speak, makes no noise and cannot breathe while holding his/her throat is likely to be choking. To avoid a more serious situation, one must intervene immediately.
Guidelines for Using an Anti-Choking Device during Emergencies
An anti-choking device can undoubtedly be a life saver during a choking emergency. Let us consider the general principles of using an anti-chocking device.
- Estimate the Degree of Impairment: Choking could range from a mild disorder up to a complete obstruction or strangulation of the air ways. In case the person choked is unable to cough, brunette in, or speak, be sure to act at once.
- Seek Assistance: Either call the emergency line or request someone in the vicinity to make the call while you attend to the individual experiencing the choking episode.
- Observe Precautionary Measures: Make sure to follow the proper directions given by the student’s instructor or books regarding the use of the anti chokers. Respond to the device’s recommended positioning as well as its application.
- Keep Composure and Indulge in Effective Communication: Rather than appearing anxious, do tell the choked party to stay calm and that help is coming. This could handle overwhelming feeling which is otherwise normal in such incidents.
- Take Additional Steps: Use the anti choking device in the stipulated manner and follow proper emboweling techniques to remove the obstruction to the airway passage. However, do not apply too much pressure which could lead to injury.
What to Do If Current Choking Protocols Have Been Followed
If the previously mentioned attempts to use an anti choking device or the existing choking protocols do not resolve the choking case, then the following steps are to be taken.
- Seek more assistance: If the airway remains obstructed and the person is still not able to breathe, dial emergency numbers immediately or enlist the help of a bystander to do so.
- Give CPR: In great cases when all efforts fail and the individual’s response goes mute, Then one must instantly attempt to start CPR, follow the instructions and measures suggested by the authorities or relevant professional medical staff.
It is crucial to remember that on one side, anti-choking devices perform to remove airway obstruction, but we also have to take into consideration that all the measures in an emergency case, the correct training, and the guidelines are necessary and have to be maintained. Furthermore, anti-choking devices can be ineffective when operating on patients who are suffering from loss of consciousness, and even after the established protocols are applied and an anti-choking device is used, a medical professional would be important.
What are the Benefits of Using an Anti-Choking Device?
Advantages of Suction-Based Airway Clearance Devices
Devices that utilize suction to clear airways, such as anti-choking aids, have several key strengths that make them useful in the management of choking episodes. As technology advances, these devices specifically function to rapidly remove airway blockage and allow for normal respiration. Here are the key benefits of incorporating an anti-choking device into your home kit:
- Timely and Effective Airway Clearance: Anti-choking devices are similar to suction pc a vacuum as they use suction to demolish obstructions lodged in the airways. This prevents enhancement in airway complications.
- Safe and Non-Invasive: Unlike other methods, such as back blows or abdominal thrusts, anti-choking devices use a suction-based approach to relieve airway blockages. The patient has active blockages during active distress and therefore pose a considerable safety concern and risk of further harming the individual suffocating.
- Suitable for Individuals of All Ages: With a good anti-choking device, there is no more concern about children or toddlers choking while eating food. कहीं भी अकेले दवाई लेने का कोई चिंता निःशुल्क, anti-choking devices are universally suitable devices to account for babies and infants including toddlers and adults.
- Convenient and Portable: Anti-choking devices are designed for ease of use, which means that they are easy to operate even for those who do not have extensive medical knowledge.

Through pushing the anti-choking device you can handle the life treating situations at the choking emergencies. Keeping this device along, you will be able to get pieces of eight more efficiently and at a very close distance to the loved ones that you want to save.
How to Properly Use an Anti-Choking Device?
Step-by-Step Guide on Using the Anti-Choking Device
- Evaluate the Condition: First, check if the individual has a partially or completely blocked mouth or nose. Signs of protrusion include signs of struggle to breathe, trying to speak without words coming out, and hiccupping.
- Let Someone Help: For holdup of the revised statement, Tell someone to call for help when the individual stops coughing, is unable to speak,k and is not breathing. Time is extremely important as this is a case of choking is an emergency.
- Get in A Supportive Position: Stand behind the individual a little towards one side in a supportive manner, where one of your hand is placed on their chin and the other hand is placed on their chest.
- Use Upwards Blows: You should be able to do this with relative ease; do so by using the heel of your palm so that firm back upward blows are applied alternately between each of the shoulder blades. To a maximum of five back blows, see if the object is dislodged after each blow.
- Use Abdominal Thrusts: Get yourself at the back of the person. Put one hand into a fist and with the other hand make a grasp on top of it. The hand which has supplied the grasp must then place its thumb side against the middle of the stomach, starting slightly above the navel and into the center. Thrusts from your grasp should be targeted upwards into your abdomen. Up until five of the motions above are acceptable, check the position after each of them has been executed.
Keep Performing CPR If Required: In any case, if the patient becomes unresponsive or starts to breathe, perform CPR in accordance with the instructions provided by the emergency dispatcher until assistance arrives.
Common Mistakes When Using an Anti-Choking Device
- Insufficient Force: Providing adequate force in abdominal thrusts and back blows is critical. Applying less-than-expected force may not effectively remove the lodged object in the vetoed airway.
- Improper Hand Placement: During abdominal thrusts, if the hands are not placed properly, they would also be less effective. Place the fist adequately above the navel to allow shifting of the diaphragm.
- Neglecting to Call for Help: Even if the obstruction has been successfully dislodged, one must not forget to seek assistance through emergency services for a thorough examination and medical treatment.
- Using an Ineffective Anti-Choking Device: Not every anti-choking thorough device is automatic; that is why the device to be issued should be tried and tested by the FDA and manufactured according to instructions set for it well.
When to Seek Additional Help After Using an Anti-Choking Device
In the following circumstances, not returning to a medical facility after employing an anti-chocking apparatus is not advisable.
When the person has extreme difficulty in breathing or persists in complaining about any discomfort.
When the foreign object previously believed to have been removed is blocking their airway.
When the person displays signs of extreme trouble or if the person becomes unconscious.
First-aid and CPR training will always prove beneficial for anyone who is in a position of having to assist someone with a choking emergency. Knowledge and availability of such information always aids in safeguarding one’s own self or another individual.
What Should Be Included in Your Anti-Choking Home Kit?
Essential Items for Choking First Aid and Rescue

CPR face Mask: This device is used when CPR is being administered so the patients mouth is covered when blowing into them.
Latex Free Gloves: Latex free gloves are to be used when a person is infected with a specific infection to lower the chances of cross infection.

The Importance of Having a Travel Kit for Choking Emergencies
Having a portable kit is essential as choking emergencies can occur essentially everywhere. Using a portable kit while going on vacations with your family or even to attend events can be ideal as they can help deal with any choking emergencies that occur.
Kid vs. Adult Choking Kits: How do they vary?
When it comes to choking kits, it is necessary to take adults and children’s differentiating requirements into account. Variances in the size and types of appliances used for senior adults differ from those used for children, so while the practical aspects and methods of providing choking first aid virtually do not differ, there are some differences. There must be special kits for both adults and children, ensuring that the anti choking instruments and other tools are suitable for each age. Also, for children choking kits are particularly supplemented with features such as child-sized face masks or guides on how to deal with children who choke on something.
With the proper equipment and a travel kit on hand, there is no reason why one should not be able to perform choke-rescue techniques efficiently and timely, either at home or while away in the shortest of time.

The mayor of València, María José Catalá, has visited in recent days the districts of Forn d’Alcedo, La Torre and Castellar-Oliveral, affected by DANA on October 29, which has already claimed 223 lives, 17 of them in the aforementioned areas.
In some of them he has made important announcements such as the construction of a new soccer field in La Torre after the existing one was destroyed by DANA. An announcement to which, through the social network “We need to have fluid and constant communication with the Mayor’s Office and it is not normal for us to find out everything through the press and social networks, it would be more enriching for everyone,” he said.
Catalá did not include this visit in its public agenda, as the spokesperson for the socialist municipal group, Borja Sanjuan, will denounce in the coming days before the Consell Valencia de Transparència. Nor did he do so with the visit he made on November 27 to Pinedo beach, with the aim of checking the status of the cleaning work. According to the letter that the PSPV will address to the organization, to which elDiario.es has had access, “the mayor of the Valencia City Council María José Catalá has repeatedly failed to comply with her obligation to publish her acts, meetings and visits as Mayor of València.” Specifically, “he has omitted to publish in his public agenda the visits to the València districts of Forn d’ Alcedo; “The Tower and Castella Oliveral”.
With this, the complaint continues, “not only has it deprived the neighbors of being aware of these visits, but it has also made difficult the work of control and supervision of the opposition councilors against the rights of political participation provided for in article 23 of the Constitution” and remembers that the publication of its public acts is also required by article 13 of Law 1/2022 on Transparency and Good Government of the Valencian Community.
According to this regulation, “in the event that non-compliance is found, the resolution must include a warning and must determine the measures that must be adopted to amend the non-compliance and the period for carrying them out, which must be appropriate.” to the nature of the measures and that in no case can it be less than twenty days; “The affected entity must communicate the actions carried out to comply with the requirement.”
Furthermore, it warns that “the neglect of the requirements of the Valencian Transparency Council for compliance with active advertising obligations may give rise to the requirement of liability, in accordance with that provided for in title V of this law; “The Valencian Transparency Council may request the initiation of the sanctioning procedure in accordance with the provisions of section 3 of article 74 of this law.”
According to Sanjuan, “Carlos Mazón is not the only one who is hiding his public agenda to prevent citizens from being able to meet him and demand responsibility from him, but also María José Catalá when she visits the districts she talks to the neighbors and does not do so. appear on her agenda, that is why we are going to report this malpractice to the Transparency Council, because Mrs. Catalá has the obligation as mayor to inform what events and what visits she is going to carry out and to explain to citizens why “València City Council has not been up to the task neither before the emergency nor after.”

Jailed Bangla monk Chinmoy Krishna Das's lawyer Rabindra Ghosh in Kolkata for treatment
Jailed Bangla monk Chinmoy Krishna Das's lawyer Rabindra Ghosh in Kolkata for treatment
Kolkata, Rabindra Ghosh, a prominent Bangladeshi lawyer defending jailed Hindu monk Chinmoy Krishna Das, is currently in Barrackpore near Kolkata for medical treatment, his son said on Monday.
Ghosh, accompanied by his wife, arrived in India on Sunday evening and is staying with his son Rahul Ghosh, who has been residing in Barrackpore in North 24 Parganas district of West Bengal for several years.
"My father arrived with my mother last evening and is currently living with us. He met with an accident three years ago, and for treatment, he frequently visits India," Rahul Ghosh told PTI.
Rahul expressed concerns about his father's safety and urged him to remain in India for some time.
"I have requested my father not to return to Bangladesh and to stay here with us for a while. But he is adamant and wants to go back as he is determined to fight the case of Chinmoy Das Prabhu. We are deeply worried about his safety," he said.
Rahul, who has been brought up in India, stays in Barrackpore with his wife and children.
Chinmoy Krishna Das, a spokesperson for the Bangladesh Sammilita Sanatani Jagran Jote, was arrested earlier this month at Dhaka's Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport while travelling to Chattogram for a rally. He was denied bail and sent to jail till January 2 by a court in Bangladesh.
Ghosh, who has been actively defending the arrested monk, has acknowledged the risks involved in his work.
"Since I am defending Chinmoy Das Prabhu, I am aware that false cases could be filed against me, and there is also a threat to my life," he had said earlier.
The Hindu community in Bangladesh, the country's largest minority group, is facing increased vulnerability amidst the ongoing political turmoil. The crisis escalated following the resignation of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina on August 5, which came after a massive student movement. The subsequent unrest has left minority communities exposed to violence and displacement.
Historically, Hindus accounted for about 22 percent of Bangladesh's population during the 1971 Liberation War. However, decades of socio-political marginalisation, sporadic violence, and exodus have reduced their share to approximately 8 per cent of the total population.
The recent political upheaval has only exacerbated the challenges faced by the minority community, placing advocates like Ghosh in an increasingly precarious position.

HOLLY DALRYMPLE: OK, so if we can hear from Sarah and Anna together at measure nine.
SARAH AND ANNA: (Singing in German).
DAVIS: That's Damenchor conductor Holly Dalrymple, directing the choir and musicians.
SARAH AND ANNA: (Singing in German).
DAVIS: While the Maennerchor, or men's choir, will sing at the concert, too, Damenchor President Danielle Plecash says the Christmas concert is the Damenchor's gift to Austin.
DANIELLE PLECASH: We have a few concerts throughout the year, but the Damenchor really take over, managing the Christmas concert. It's a free concert for the public that we put on. And it's just really fun. We spend a lot of time learning the Christmas songs.
UNIDENTIFIED PERSON: We're so happy you're here.
DAVIS: A few days later, the Austin Saengerrunde Hall was packed with an audience of over 300 people. After months of preparation, the night of the Christmas concert is here.
(SOUNDBITE OF ARCHIVED RECORDING)
DALRYMPLE: Good afternoon. We're so glad that you joined us this afternoon for our annual Christmas concert. We're going to jump right into some music. This is (speaking German).
AUSTIN SAENGERRUNDE DAMENCHOR: (Singing in German).
DAVIS: The Damenchor and Maennerchor serenade the audience with rich, complex harmonies. Their setlist includes traditional German hymns and compositions by Handel and Brahms.
(SOUNDBITE OF ARCHIVED RECORDING)
AUSTIN SAENGERRUNDE DAMENCHOR: (Singing in German).
DAVIS: To end the concert, the enthusiastic crowd joins both choirs for a sing-along.
(SOUNDBITE OF ARCHIVED RECORDING)
AUSTIN SAENGERRUNDE DAMENCHOR AND MAENNERCHOR: (Singing in German).
UNIDENTIFIED CROWD: (Singing in German).
DALRYMPLE: We have a word that we use here that I think encapsulates everything we do, and it's (speaking German). But it means the act of being in community in a kind and warm, receiving place where everybody is a friend. Yes, we come together for the purpose of singing, but that's actually the secondary purpose. It's family and community first. It's a way of being.

Wallstedt gave up three goals on 27 shots in Sunday's 3-2 loss to the Golden Knights.
Victor Olofsson tallied twice and Shea Theodore had the other goal to send Wallstedt to the loss in his NHL season debut. He was called up after Saturday's game versus the Flyers because Filip Gustavsson (lower body) is dealing with an injury. Wallstedt is one of the best goalie prospects, but he has struggled at the AHL level this year, so he likely still needs more development time, which he should get once Gustavsson is back to 100 percent.

A major review of one Aussie state’s education department has been ordered immediately over revelations a teacher who was suspended for engaging in “serious misconduct” was able to get another job at a different school.
Western Australia’s State Administrative Tribunal suspended Thomas James Winter Norman for eight months in 2022 after he declared romantic feelings for a student and sent her emails and messages on social media that crossed professional boundaries.
But Mr Norman has since been working at Hampton Senior High School in Perth’s east for at least a year, The West Australian reports.
The teacher was previously employed at Iona Presentation College in Perth when he taught the female student between 2014 and 2017.
The tribunal found when classes stopped in 2017, Mr Norman gave the student a card in which he stated she had been one of the more important people he had the pleasure of having in his life.
He made comments such as “I’ll just miss you being around” and told her he found their interactions had been “quite personally confusing and difficult to explain” for a few years.
The teacher told the girl their emails had been the highlight of his day, and he invited her to go for a walk which she declined.
He also sent the student and her friend a message via social media declaring “romantic feelings” for the girl.
The tribunal found Mr Norman was relatively young and inexperienced at the time and was immediately remorseful for his behaviour, suspending him from teaching for eight months.
He had also sought counselling and resigned from his position in 2021 after the student made a complaint.
The tribunal found expert evidence established the teacher had a “very low risk” of reoffending and other than the student’s complaint he had an unblemished record as a teacher.
Education Minister Tony Buti said this matter was concerning, and he acknowledged parents and members of the Hampton Senior High School community would have questions about what has occurred.
“Employment processes at State schools must meet community standards and expectations,” he said.
“I have asked the Department of Education and the Teachers Registration Board to undertake an immediate review of their employment and registration processes as a matter of urgency.”
The Department of Education has been contacted for comment.

The floodgates have been opened and crypto is going mainstream. Fund managers are stacking Bitcoin (BTC) at unprecedented rates as institutional interest is skyrocketing.
Although it’s still in its infancy, the DeFi space is booming as well and Cutoshi (CUTO) is about to set new standards. The project’s goal is to lower entry barriers and provide comprehensive DeFi education to the growing numbers of retail investors taking their first steps in the crypto world.
Bitcoin Is Back Above $100k As ETFs Now Hold More BTC Than Satoshi
After the weekend slump and a retest of the lows, Bitcoin (BTC) has reclaimed the $100k landmark. At the time of writing, Bitcoin trades at $101k following a 1% intraday increase. The 17% decline in trading volume suggests a short-term slowing down of Bitcoin’s momentum, with roughly $77 billion worth of BTC traded across exchanges.
On December 6, analyst Eric Balchunas revealed that BTC ETFs reached a historic milestone, as they now collectively hold over 1.104 million BTC, worth approximately $110 billion. This is significant as according to rumors, Bitcoin creator, the elusive Satoshi Nakamoto, holds 1.1 million coins, which easily places him among the richest people on the planet.
On Tuesday, according to SoSoValue, Bitcoin ETFs recorded an all-time high in net inflows, with $439 million in fresh capital rotating into the 12 spot ETFs provided by financial behemoths such as BlackRock, GrayScale and Fidelity.
What does this mean for Bitcoin’s future price action? Analyst and trader LukaDonTrades has shared a BTC chart reading that uses Fibonacci levels to estimate the next potential move for Bitcoin. As Bitcoin continues to move within the ascending channel, Luka believes that the next obvious target is $110k.
On the other hand, Bitcoin’s dominance is slowly waning as it already tested the support. Once a breakdown is confirmed, alts will take the spotlight and low-cap gems like Cutoshi could enter escape velocity and explode in value over the next few months.
Cutoshi Is Taking The Meme Coin Market By Storm
Unlike most meme coins, Cutoshi is built with longevity in mind. That’s why, behind the cutesy and whimsical surface, it boasts a state-of-the-art DeFi ecosystem that could rival established protocols such as Uniswap or ShibaSwap. Through the CUTO DEX platform, users can seamlessly swap assets across all major blockchains.
The exchange is fully non-custodial, meaning that users won’t have to share sensitive data or rely upon third parties for the safeguarding of their holding. This approach reflects Cutoshi’s commitment to privacy and decentralization, the two cardinal precepts of crypto philosophy that drove Satoshi Nakamoto to change the world forever with his invention.
Moreover, users can earn substantial rewards for actively engaging with the Cutoshi ecosystem. Through the Cutoshi Farming model, they will have the opportunity to do their part in the project’s rise to prominence and boost Cutoshi’s social media reach. For their loyalty, they will receive CUTO points that can be later exchanged for $CUTO once the token hits the markets.
One of Cutoshi’s most interesting aspects is the unique Cutoshi Academy. This is an educational hub that wants to empower beginners by granting access to free resources that demystify key concepts such as DeFi and teach the basics of trading and portfolio management. With this initiative, Cutoshi seeks to narrow the knowledge gap and foster a welcoming and inclusive environment for beginners lost in the intricacies of crypto.
Stage 4 of the $CUTO presale is live and tokens sell for just $0.031. Taking action today could lead to incredible gains during the upcoming alt season.

HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) — The new year will usher in the bitcoin-friendly administration of President-elect Donald Trump and an expanding lobbying effort in statehouses that, together, could push states to become more open to crypto and for public pension funds and treasuries to buy into it.
Proponents of the uniquely volatile commodity argue it is a valuable hedge against inflation, similar to gold.
Many bitcoin enthusiasts and investors are quick to criticize government-backed currencies as prone to devaluation and say increased government buy-in will stabilize bitcoin's future price swings, give it more legitimacy and further boost an already rising price.
But the risks are significant. Critics say a crypto investment is highly speculative, with so much unknown about projecting its future returns, and warn that investors should be prepared to lose money.
Only a couple public pension funds have invested in cryptocurrency and a new U.S. Government Accountability Office study on 401(k) plan investments in crypto, issued in recent days, warned it has “uniquely high volatility” and that it found no standard approach for projecting the future returns of crypto.
It has already been a landmark year for crypto, with bitcoin hitting $100,000, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission approving the first exchange-traded funds that hold bitcoin and crypto enthusiasts being cheered by Trump's promise to make the United States the “bitcoin superpower” of the world.
Lawmakers in more states can expect to see bills in 2025 to make them crypto-friendly as analysts say crypto is becoming a powerful lobby, bitcoin miners build new installations and venture capitalists underwrite a growing tech sector that caters to cryptocurrencies.
Meanwhile, a new crypto-friendly federal government under Trump and Congress could consider legislation from Sen. Cynthia Lummis, R-Wyoming, to create a federal bitcoin reserve on which states can piggyback.
A bill introduced last month in Pennsylvania's House of Representatives sought to authorize the state's treasurer and public pension funds to invest in bitcoin. It went nowhere before the legislative session ended, but it caused a stir.
“I had a friend who is a rep down the road text me, ‘Oh my god, I’m getting so many emails and phone calls to my office,' more than he ever did about any other bill,” said the measure's sponsor, Republican Mike Cabell.
Cabell — a bitcoin enthusiast who lost his reelection bid — expects his bill to be reintroduced by a colleague. And leaders of bitcoin advocacy group Satoshi Action say they expect bills based on their model bill to be introduced in at least 10 other states next year.
Keith Brainard, research director for the National Association of State Retirement Administrators, said he doesn’t expect many public pension fund investment professionals, who oversee nearly $6 trillion in assets, to invest in crypto.
Pension fund professionals take risks they deem to be appropriate, but bitcoin investing has a short track record, might only fit into a niche asset class and may not fit the risk-to-reward profile they seek.
“There might be a bit of dabbling in bitcoin,” Brainard said. “But it’s difficult to envision a scenario in which pension funds right now are willing to make a commitment.”
In Louisiana, Treasurer John Fleming helped make the state the first to introduce a system by which people can pay a government agency in cryptocurrencies.
Fleming said he's not trying to promote cryptocurrency, but rather sees the step as a recognition that government must innovate and be flexible in helping people make financial transactions with the state. He said he would never invest his money, or the state's, in crypto.
Fleming recalled meeting with a bitcoin lobbyist recently and came away unconvinced that bitcoin makes for a good investment.
“My concern is that at some point it’ll stop growing and then people will want to cash in,” Fleming said. “And when they do, it could tank the value of a bitcoin.”
In Pennsylvania, Treasury Department officials said they have the authority to decide for themselves if cryptocurrencies meet the agency's investment standards under state law and don't need new legislation.
Still, a highly volatile asset is ill-suited to the agency's need for predictability, considering it writes millions of checks a year. The overwhelming majority of the roughly $60 billion it invests at any given time is in short-term, conservative investments designed for an investment period of months, officials there said.
Pension boards, which invest on a 30-year time horizon, may already hold small investments in companies involved in mining, trading and storing cryptocurrencies. But they have been slow to embrace bitcoin.
That could change, said Mark Palmer, managing director and a senior research analyst at The Benchmark Company in New York.
Pension boards got investment tools they like this year when the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission approved the first exchange-traded funds that hold bitcoin and, in October, approved listings of options on those funds, Palmer said.
Many “are likely in the process of getting up to speed on what it means to invest in bitcoin and kicking the tires, so to speak, and that’s a process that typically takes a while at the institutional level,” Palmer said.
Several major asset managers like BlackRock, Invesco and Fidelity have bitcoin ETFs.
In May, the State of Wisconsin Investment Board became the first state to invest when it bought $160 million worth of shares in two ETFs, or about 0.1% of its assets. It later scaled back that investment to $104 million in one ETF, as of Sept. 30. A spokesperson declined to discuss it.
Michigan's state investment board later reported about $18 million in bitcoin ETF purchases while a candidate for New Jersey governor, Steven Fulop, said that if elected he would push the state's pension fund to invest in crypto.
Fulop, the Democratic mayor of Jersey City, just across the Hudson River from Manhattan, has been preparing for months to buy bitcoin ETF shares for up to 2% of the city's $250 million employee pension fund.
“We were ahead of the curve," Fulop said. “And I think that’s what you’re eventually going to see is this is widely accepted, with regard to exposure in all pension funds, some sort of exposure.”

Mumbai: Death toll rises to 8 in Kurla BEST bus accident as man succumbs to injuries
A 55-year-old man died from injuries sustained in a Kurla bus accident, raising the death toll to eight.
A 55-year-old man, who was among the several persons injured in the BEST bus accident in Kurla area of Maharashtra's Mumbai, died on Monday morning, taking the death toll to eight, a civic official said.
The electric bus, hired by the civic-run Brihanmumbai Electric Supply and Transport (BEST) undertaking on wet-lease basis, ploughed into a crowd and fatally knocked down seven persons and injured 42 others on a crowded road in Kurla area on December 9.
In addition, the accident caused damage to a number of other vehicles.
According to a Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) official, one of the injured, Fazlu Rehman, passed away on Monday morning while receiving treatment at the Sion Hospital.

A five-person team appointed by BEST has been formed to look into the Kurla accident.
Police are holding 54-year-old driver Sanjay More on suspicion of reckless driving.
It also said that BEST would provide ₹2 lakh each to the families of those who lost their lives and bear treatment expenses of the injured.
BEST administration has claimed that More received three days' training before he was allowed to drive the electric bus.
RTO authorities believe the accident, which was one of the most horrifying involving BEST buses in recent memory, may have been caused by human error and inadequate training for operating buses with automatic transmissions.
A police officer and jail guard were arrested in Navi Mumbai for taking a bribe from an inmate's brother
A police officer and a senior jail official are facing charges for allegedly receiving and demanding a bribe to cease harassing a prisoner's relative in Navi Mumbai.

He stated that the complainant, whose brother is a prisoner at Taloja Jail, was reportedly asked to pay the two a bribe of ₹10,000.
The complainant claimed that the two defendants at Taloja Jail had harassed his brother. According to reports, as the prisoner was taken to court for procedures, the abuse intensified.

- A slim majority of economists — 13 out of 24 — polled by CNBC expects the Bank of Japan to stand pat after its two-day policy meeting ends on Thursday.
- The same majority predicts the central bank will raise rates in January.
- Analysts see the yen strengthening to 147.4 against the U.S. dollar by end-2025 from around 154 currently.
The Bank of Japan (BOJ) is likely to keep its benchmark interest rate unchanged this week as it awaits greater clarity on domestic wages and spending trends as well as policy changes by the incoming administration of U.S. President-elect Donald Trump, according to a survey of economists polled by CNBC.
A slim majority of 13 out of 24 economists, or 54%, said BOJ is likely to keep its benchmark interest rate unchanged at 0.25% at the end of its two-day meeting on Thursday. The same number of economists expect the Japanese central bank to raise rates in January. The survey was conducted between Dec. 9-13.
The BOJ, which last raised rates in July, has signaled its readiness to tighten further if wage growth and prices align with its projections. In a recent media interview, BOJ Governor Kazuo Ueda suggested another rate hike is "nearing in the sense that economic data are on track," but he also noted risks, including wage trends next year and potential changes in U.S. economic policy.

Japanese interest rates are the lowest among developed countries due to the BOJ's longstanding policy of supporting the country's moribund economy. The policy has kept the yen weak against most major currencies, boosting exports and tourism and spurring the so-called "carry trade" when investors borrow yen to bet on higher-yielding assets. These trends could reverse as Japanese interest rates rise while central banks elsewhere begin to lower rates.
Many economists told CNBC they believe that recent data indicates Japan's economy is broadly on track to achieve the central bank's 2% inflation target, driven by wage growth. However, they noted the BOJ might prefer to wait another month to evaluate wage-driven inflation dynamics, focusing on momentum from next year's spring wage negotiations and Trump's trade and tariff policies.
The BOJ has yet to gain confidence in its outlook, according to Akira Otani of Goldman Sachs Japan. He noted the central bank lacks sufficient clarity on whether small and medium-sized enterprises can sustain wage increases, a risk flagged by the BOJ as crucial to achieving its inflation target. Japanese unions typically negotiate wage increases in the first three months of the calendar year ahead of the financial year that begins in April.
Money Report
The view that the central bank is likely to hold rates this week also gained traction after recent media reports suggested policymakers wanted more time to monitor overseas risks and gather additional clues on Japan's wage outlook.
"The BOJ's confusing communications" now suggests a likely outcome of the central bank leaving rates unchanged to await additional information from the spring wage negotiations and U.S. policy developments, Shigeto Nagai, head of Japan Economics at Oxford Economics, said in a note last week.
Regular wages in Japan have been growing annually at a rate of 2.5% to 3%, with inflation staying above the BOJ's 2% target for 30 consecutive months. While authorities are keen to normalize monetary policy, they are also wary of raising rates too quickly following more than two decades of deflation. Indeed, Japanese household spending has declined for three straight months as of October, while factory output has been volatile.
Teppei Ino, head of Tokyo Global Markets Research at MUFG Bank, also highlighted shifting market expectations due to media reports. Overnight swap markets have significantly reduced bets on a December rate hike, assigning a 77% probability of no change as of Monday morning – much higher than the about 35% likelihood of standing pat priced in at the end of November.
"Judging from the (media) reports so far, it seems the likelihood of a rate hike being postponed has increased," Ino told CNBC on Friday.
"However, considering the current trend of yen depreciation and the upcoming FOMC meeting just before the BOJ meeting, we should keep in mind that there remains a possibility of an abrupt decision to raise rates if the USD/JPY reaches levels like 155," Ino said, referring to the Federal Open Markets Committee meeting scheduled this week.
The yen was trading around 154 to the dollar on Monday morning.
To be sure, some economists still expect the BOJ to tighten policy this week.
Nomura expects the BOJ to raise its policy rate by 25 basis points on Thursday, citing fundamentals such as the economy and prices being on track. However, it also acknowledged that a hike might be delayed due to uncertainties surrounding U.S. policy.
"We think the BOJ could also decide to put off any rate hike if it decides to place greater emphasis on uncertainties, including U.S. policy conduct and market trends (in the forex market in particular) during the Christmas season, when markets tend to be quiet," research analyst Kyohei Morita said in a Dec. 11 note.
The brokerage also pointed to uncertainty around the government's fiscal support for households as a potential factor that might prompt the BOJ to hold off its rate increase. Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba, whose government lacks a parliamentary majority, is currently in negotiations with opposition parties over the size of a proposed increase to the minimum annual taxable income threshold.
Currency Risks
Many analysts highlighted the Japanese yen as a key factor influencing their outlook on the BOJ's decisions.
"The most important and likely driver that could change my outlook is the yen," said Kazuo Momma, executive economist at Mizuho Research, who said the BOJ is likely to stand pat this week and raise the benchmark rate by 25 basis points in January. "Accelerated yen depreciation would upset the public and the federal government, forcing the BOJ to adopt a more aggressive stance on hiking," he said.
Jun Takazawa, Asia Economist at HSBC, emphasized risks from both directions.
"On one hand, a stronger U.S. dollar driven by fiscal, monetary, and trade policies in the U.S. could weigh on the yen and accelerate the BOJ's policy normalization process. On the other hand, a weaker yen — within limits — supports Japan's reflation efforts, so excessive yen strength could delay rate hikes."
According to CNBC's survey of 24 analysts, the yen is forecast to average 147.4 against the U.S. dollar by the end of 2025. The dollar rose 2.4% against the yen last week as traders scaled back bets on a BOJ rate hike this month.

ARI SHAPIRO, HOST:
The work of Navajo quiltmaker Susan Hudson is sought after by collectors and museums. This year, she was named a National Endowment for the Arts fellow. It's been a long and difficult road to recognition for her as KSUT's Adam Burke learned when he visited her workshop.
ADAM BURKE, BYLINE: Before they became tools of artistic liberation, needle and thread were sources of pain and suffering for Susan Hudson and her family, stretching back to her mother's enrollment at an Indian boarding school in the 1940s.
SUSAN HUDSON: She didn't learn to sew in the boarding schools. It was beaten into her. If she wiggled or anything, she got hit. If her stitches weren't straight, tiny and precise, she got hit.
BURKE: When her mother taught her to sew, Hudson experienced some of that same trauma as a 9-year-old girl.
HUDSON: I hated sewing. I hated it. When I was in my 20s, I finally talked to her. I asked her why, and then she told me the story. She goes, I'm going to tell you once, and I'm never going to tell you again.
BURKE: Still, Hudson kept sewing. As an adult and a single mother, she made shawls and star quilts and sold them at powwows.
HUDSON: When I started making star quilts, it was mostly to survive, you know, to buy food for my kids, buy them shoes.
BURKE: Then around 15 years ago, an artist friend told Hudson he thought her quilts were boring, and he challenged her to make more original work.
HUDSON: It just freaking...
(SOUNDBITE OF A CLAP)
HUDSON: ...Those pieces came together, and I knew that I was chosen for this.
(SOUNDBITE OF SEWING MACHINE)
BURKE: She started to put family stories on her quilts, as well as visions from her most vivid dreams.
HUDSON: I got gadgets all over the place, stuff I couldn't afford when I was younger.
BURKE: These days, Hudson enjoys sewing. Her studio near Ignacio, Colorado, is a lively mess of colorful fabrics and half-finished projects.
(SOUNDBITE OF SEWING MACHINE)
BURKE: The human figures in her quilts have no facial features. At first glance, they seem like paper dolls, but every material detail has a story.
HUDSON: I use this fabric 'cause I cut it out to make it look like feathers, and I will eventually do the beadwork on there.
BURKE: Hudson's work depicts some of the most traumatic chapters in Native American history, from the legacy of Indian boarding schools where native children were separated from their families to the Navajo Long Walk when people were forcibly removed from their homeland in the 1860s.
HUDSON: Every one of us Natives, we're descendants from boarding school survivors.
BURKE: One quilt, "Tears Of Our Children, Tears For Our Children," depicts boarding school trauma. In one frame, a row of children are dressed in colorful, traditional regalia. In another, their hair is cut, and they're wearing drab institutional clothing.
HUDSON: And then over here's showing where the mothers were trying to get their children, and the soldiers would shoot them if they would try to get their children. But this little girl represented my mother.
BURKE: Emil Her Many Horses was immediately drawn to this quilt when he first laid eyes on it. He's a curator at the National Museum of the American Indian and a member of the Oglala Lakota nation.
EMIL HER MANY HORSES: She was telling this story in a new medium - cotton fabric - and there's a lot of detail that she took the time to stitch into this quilt. And so I thought this would be something that would add to our permanent collection.
(SOUNDBITE OF ARCHIVED RECORDING)
UNIDENTIFIED PERSON: In recognition of her contribution...
BURKE: In September, Hudson received an award from the National Endowment for the Arts at the Library of Congress in Washington, D.C.
(SOUNDBITE OF ARCHIVED RECORDING)
HUDSON: I should not be standing here receiving this award.
BURKE: During her acceptance speech, Hudson's words pierce the silence of the theater.
(SOUNDBITE OF ARCHIVED RECORDING)
HUDSON: I should not be having to make these quilts to talk about the atrocities that happened to our people.
BURKE: Her message is fierce and uncompromising.
(SOUNDBITE OF ARCHIVED RECORDING)
HUDSON: My descendants will remind your descendants of the things that happened to our people.
BURKE: With just a touch of humor.
(SOUNDBITE OF ARCHIVED RECORDING)
HUDSON: But I appreciate the award.
(LAUGHTER)
BURKE: Through the soft medium of quilt-making, Hudson has found a way to share hard truth - stories her family members would only speak of in whispers when she was growing up.
HUDSON: You know, everybody was talking about it quietly. But no, I don't care. I'm going to talk about it because that's my story. That's my history, my family tree.
BURKE: For NPR News, I'm Adam Burke.

Whistleblower Richard Boyle is believed to be negotiating with prosecutors over a plea deal that may allow him to escape conviction.
Boyle is being prosecuted after exposing unethical debt recovery practices at the Australian Taxation Office and charged with offences relating to collecting evidence.
The 24 offences include allegedly making illegal recordings of conversations and making copies of sensitive information.
He faces decades behind bars if convicted.
His legal team is hoping to reach a deal with the Commonwealth before the case is due to return to the South Australian District Court in February 2025, AAP understands.
Failing this, no prison time could also be sought.
Boyle's push to be covered under public disclosure laws fell over after the court ruled he was not immune from prosecution.
The High Court then declined to hear his appeal.
Boyle first raised his concerns through internal tax office processes, then made a complaint to the tax ombudsman before taking part in a joint media investigation.
Transparency advocates have called for his prosecution to be dropped, saying it was bad for democracy and discouraged others from coming forward with allegations of wrongdoing.
It was wrong Boyle, whose accusations exposed serious wrongdoing, was being prosecuted not for public whistleblowing but for gathering evidence before making an internal complaint, according to the Human Rights Law Centre.
The prosecution had demonstrated significant issues and uncertainties in Australian whistleblower protection legislation, the centre's associate legal director lawyer Kieran Pender said.
He called for Commonwealth whistleblower protection reforms.
The attorney-general is considering further whistleblower protections.
Boyle was charged in 2019 after making an initial internal complaint in October 2017.

HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) — The new year will usher in the bitcoin-friendly administration of President-elect Donald Trump and an expanding lobbying effort in statehouses that, together, could push states to become more open to crypto and for public pension funds and treasuries to buy into it.
Proponents of the uniquely volatile commodity argue it is a valuable hedge against inflation, similar to gold.
Many bitcoin enthusiasts and investors are quick to criticize government-backed currencies as prone to devaluation and say increased government buy-in will stabilize bitcoin's future price swings, give it more legitimacy and further boost an already rising price.
But the risks are significant. Critics say a crypto investment is highly speculative, with so much unknown about projecting its future returns, and warn that investors should be prepared to lose money.
Only a couple public pension funds have invested in cryptocurrency and a new U.S. Government Accountability Office study on 401(k) plan investments in crypto, issued in recent days, warned it has “uniquely high volatility" and that it found no standard approach for projecting the future returns of crypto.
It has already been a landmark year for crypto, with bitcoin hitting $100,000, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission approving the first exchange-traded funds that hold bitcoin and crypto enthusiasts being cheered by Trump's promise to make the United States the “bitcoin superpower" of the world.
Lawmakers in more states can expect to see bills in 2025 to make them crypto-friendly as analysts say crypto is becoming a powerful lobby, bitcoin miners build new installations and venture capitalists underwrite a growing tech sector that caters to cryptocurrencies.
Meanwhile, a new crypto-friendly federal government under Trump and Congress could consider legislation from Sen. Cynthia Lummis, R-Wyoming, to create a federal bitcoin reserve on which states can piggyback.
A bill introduced last month in Pennsylvania's House of Representatives sought to authorize the state's treasurer and public pension funds to invest in bitcoin. It went nowhere before the legislative session ended, but it caused a stir.
“I had a friend who is a rep down the road text me, ‘Oh my god, I’m getting so many emails and phone calls to my office,' more than he ever did about any other bill," said the measure's sponsor, Republican Mike Cabell.
Cabell — a bitcoin enthusiast who lost his reelection bid — expects his bill to be reintroduced by a colleague. And leaders of bitcoin advocacy group Satoshi Action say they expect bills based on their model bill to be introduced in at least 10 other states next year.
Keith Brainard, research director for the National Association of State Retirement Administrators, said he doesn’t expect many public pension fund investment professionals, who oversee nearly $6 trillion in assets, to invest in crypto.
Pension fund professionals take risks they deem to be appropriate, but bitcoin investing has a short track record, might only fit into a niche asset class and may not fit the risk-to-reward profile they seek.
“There might be a bit of dabbling in bitcoin," Brainard said. “But it’s difficult to envision a scenario in which pension funds right now are willing to make a commitment."
In Louisiana, Treasurer John Fleming helped make the state the first to introduce a system by which people can pay a government agency in cryptocurrencies.
Fleming said he's not trying to promote cryptocurrency, but rather sees the step as a recognition that government must innovate and be flexible in helping people make financial transactions with the state. He said he would never invest his money, or the state's, in crypto.
Fleming recalled meeting with a bitcoin lobbyist recently and came away unconvinced that bitcoin makes for a good investment.
“My concern is that at some point it’ll stop growing and then people will want to cash in," Fleming said. “And when they do, it could tank the value of a bitcoin."
In Pennsylvania, Treasury Department officials said they have the authority to decide for themselves if cryptocurrencies meet the agency's investment standards under state law and don't need new legislation.
Still, a highly volatile asset is ill-suited to the agency's need for predictability, considering it writes millions of checks a year. The overwhelming majority of the roughly $60 billion it invests at any given time is in short-term, conservative investments designed for an investment period of months, officials there said.
Pension boards, which invest on a 30-year time horizon, may already hold small investments in companies involved in mining, trading and storing cryptocurrencies. But they have been slow to embrace bitcoin.
That could change, said Mark Palmer, managing director and a senior research analyst at The Benchmark Company in New York.
Pension boards got investment tools they like this year when the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission approved the first exchange-traded funds that hold bitcoin and, in October, approved listings of options on those funds, Palmer said.
Many “are likely in the process of getting up to speed on what it means to invest in bitcoin and kicking the tires, so to speak, and that’s a process that typically takes a while at the institutional level," Palmer said.
Several major asset managers like BlackRock, Invesco and Fidelity have bitcoin ETFs.
In May, the State of Wisconsin Investment Board became the first state to invest when it bought $160 million worth of shares in two ETFs, or about 0.1% of its assets. It later scaled back that investment to $104 million in one ETF, as of Sept. 30. A spokesperson declined to discuss it.
Michigan's state investment board later reported about $18 million in bitcoin ETF purchases while a candidate for New Jersey governor, Steven Fulop, said that if elected he would push the state's pension fund to invest in crypto.
Fulop, the Democratic mayor of Jersey City, just across the Hudson River from Manhattan, has been preparing for months to buy bitcoin ETF shares for up to 2% of the city's $250 million employee pension fund.
“We were ahead of the curve," Fulop said. “And I think that’s what you’re eventually going to see is this is widely accepted, with regard to exposure in all pension funds, some sort of exposure."

DJ Yesong jailed
Korean media reported that the Supreme Court upheld the lower court’s decision on December 10, announcing the sentence for the 29-year-old star.
As per reports, the fatal incident happened in February this year. DJ Yesong, who was said to be "heavily intoxicated" was driving across Seoul's Gangnam district early in the early hours when she hit the victim. The man was taken to the hospital in critical condition, but couldn't survive. Authorities stated that the alcohol level in her blood at the time of the sccident was 0.221%, which is way above the permissible limit.
Court's verdict on DJ Yesong
The court held Yesong's failure to stop and help the injured as a critical factor in the case. It said she neglected her legal obligations under the Road Traffic Act. The court further noted her reckless driving where she broke red lights at unsafe speeds.
The Supreme Court rejected her plea to reduce the prison term from eight years.

Zuccarello recorded two assists in Sunday's 3-2 loss to the Golden Knights.
Zuccarello has three helpers over two games since he returned from a lower-body injury. He's immediately regained his top-line role and spot on the first power-play unit, and he's had no issues with rust after a 13-game absence. The 37-year-old winger is at six goals, 11 helpers, 30 shots on net and a plus-7 rating through 18 appearances, serving as a strong playmaker who should play a big part in the Wild's success on offense.

“You entered our Amazon Christmas contest and an item is waiting for you to pick up.” You have asked about this message through the Maldita.es WhatsApp chatbot (+34 644 229 319). The SMS, which is accompanied by a link, says that you have been the winner of an Amazon Christmas contest. It is a scam: it is a case of smishing (a scam that is carried out through SMS), since cybercriminals impersonate Amazon to obtain your personal data or your bank card data.
A reader contacted damn.es and indicated that he had received an SMS in his name, supposedly shipped by Amazonwhere they told him that he had won a Christmas contest. The message included a suspicious link (eyavud[.]com/C0Ud94I) which, when clicked on, redirects to a fraudulent website that uses Amazon’s corporate image. The supposed prize was a mobile phone.
In the victim’s screenshots you can see how they requested his card information to pay the 2 euros shipping cost of the supposed prize. But in the small print at the end of the website a text appears in which they warn that 44 euros will be charged every 14 days through that card for the subscription to an online payment service.
If you have unfortunately fallen for this scam, here you go a series of tips to unsubscribe.

Here's What Lalu Prasad Yadav Do In Jail
The RJD president might be given a teacher's job to teach the illiterate prisoners!
Ranchi: Officials of the Birsa Munda Central Jail in Ranchi are yet to decide what job they should allot to RJD president Lalu Prasad.
"As per the jail manual, a convict is given about a week time to prepare for appeal against the lower court's verdict. Only after that process is over, the jail superintendent allots work depending upon the skills of a convict," a senior official of the jail said here today.
"So, he (Lalu) has not been allotted any work as yet," the official added. Hinting that Lalu could be attached with literacy campaign work, IG (Prison) Sailendra Bhusan said, "You are aware that literacy campaign is going on in different jails."
Mr Bhusan, however, evaded a direct reply when asked if the RJD president would be given a teacher's job to teach the illiterate prisoners.
"We can't rule that out," he said, but added that no decision has been taken yet.
According to his profile in the Lok Sabha website, the former Bihar chief minister is a "law graduate".
The official said the jail has also manufacturing units for making blankets, soap and other materials, besides gardening. The health and age of a convict were also taken into consideration before allotting his/her a work.
Lalu is currently lodged as an upper division convict in the Birsa Munda Central Jail following his five-year-long Rigorous Imprisonment (RI) awarded by a CBI court in a fodder scam case.
Another former Bihar chief minister Jagannath Mishra, who was awarded four years RI, however, may not have to work inside the jail for the time being due to his ill health.
Mr Mishra is admitted to a hospital soon after being convicted along with Lalu and 43 others by the court of Pravas Kumar Singh on September 30.
Mr Bhusan said, "In jail there are works for which skilled, semi-skilled and unskilled workers are needed. Work is allotted according to the ability of a prisoner. No work is forced on any one."

Will hand over case to NIA, if needed: Manipur CM on killing of Bihar residents
In his post on X, Biren Singh strongly condemned the killings, identifying the victims as Sunalal Kumar and Dasharat Kumar.
Manipur chief minister N Biren Singh on Sunday said that the case into the killing of two Bihar migrant workers in Manipur’s Kakching district on Saturday by unknown assailants will be handed over to the National Investigation Agency (NIA) only if required.
The chief minister made the announcement on X, a day after the two teenage migrant workers were allegedly shot dead by unidentified individuals around 5:20pm while returning from work to their rented accommodation near the panchayat office on Kakching-Wabagai Road.
In his post, Singh strongly condemned the killings, identifying the victims as Sunalal Kumar and Dasharat Kumar.
“I strongly condemn the brutal killing of young brothers, Sunalal Kumar and Dasharat Kumar, from Bihar in Kakching district, Manipur. This act of terrorism is a direct assault on our values, and my deepest condolences go out to their grieving families,” he wrote.
The CM further said, “In this crucial juncture, we cannot ignore the possibility that this horrific crime is part of a larger conspiracy to destabilise our state and push it further towards chaos. We must stand together against these destructive forces and ensure that they do not succeed in creating fear and insecurity.”
Singh also announced an ex-gratia of ₹10 lakh to each of the bereaved families, and assured people that every possible effort was underway to identify, apprehend, and prosecute those responsible for the killings. “If required, the case will be transferred to the NIA to ensure a fair and thorough inquiry,” he added.

This is CNBC's live blog covering European markets.
European markets are expected to open in mixed territory Monday, as traders gear up for the final Federal Reserve meeting of the year.
The U.K.'s FTSE 100 index is expected to open 4 points lower at 8,292, Germany's DAX up 36 points at 20,443, France's CAC down 1 point at 7,401 and Italy's FTSE MIB up 16 points at 34,876, according to data from IG.
The Fed's decision on Dec. 18 stateside is front and center for global markets this week, with the CME Fedwatch tool forecasting a 96% chance of a 25-basis-point cut by the central bank. Traders will be paying close attention to the updated policy statement and Fed Chair Jerome Powell's press conference for clues about the trajectory for interest rates.

In Europe Monday, investors will be keeping an eye on Berlin where a vote of confidence will take place in parliament Monday. Chancellor Olaf Scholz is expected to call on the German parliament today to declare it has no confidence in him in order for snap polls to take place in February. The move comes after his governing coalition collapsed last month.

Traders expect Fed to cut this week, pause in January
Money Report
The Federal Reserve is widely expected to cut rates by 0.25 percentage points on Wednesday, but traders will be paying close attention to the updated policy statement and Fed Chair Jerome Powell's press conference for clues about what comes next.
As of Sunday night, pricing in the Fed funds futures market pointed to a 95.3% likelihood of a rate cut this week, according to the CME FedWatch tool. However, traders are also betting that the Fed will pause its rate cutting cycle in January.
That could be a welcome move for investors who are still uneasy with the path of inflation.
Logan Moulton, portfolio manager at Intelligent Wealth Solutions, said inflation appears to be "stickier" than Fed officials previously thought and that there are risks to upward pressure on inflation when the Trump administration takes office.
"Heading into 2025, I think they should at least pause," Moulton said.

On-air challenge: For years I've been playing a "License Plate Game" when I've been with someone in a car. To play, you need to be in a state where most of the license plates have three letters —which many do. One of you calls out a set of letters from a nearby car. The object is to think of the shortest common, uncapitalized word that contains those letters in left-to-right order — not necessarily consecutively. Let's say the letters on a plate are NFT. Someone might call out BENEFIT, in seven letters. But that can be beaten by INFANT, in six letters. That in turn can be beaten by NIFTY, in five. In today's puzzle, I'll give you some sets of three letters. For each one, add two letters anywhere to complete a common, uncapitalized five-letter word.
- VCR
- GTO
- CNN
- CIA
- NSA
- PGA
- HMO
- RBI
Last week's challenge: Last week's challenge came from listener Ethan Kane, of Albuquerque. Name a common tree of North America in two words (3,5). Rearrange its letters to name a well-known plant of Central America, also in two words (4,4). What tree and plant are these?
Challenge answer: Red Maple --> Reed Palm
Winner: Suzanne Hendrich of Missoula, Montana
This week's challenge: This week's challenge comes from Joseph Young, who's a frequent contributor here — and it's a little tricky. Change one letter of a place on earth to get a familiar phrase much heard around this time of year. What is it? The answer consists of three words (5,2,5).
If you know the answer to the challenge, submit it here by Thursday, December 19th, 2024 at 3 p.m. ET. Listeners whose answers are selected win a chance to play the on-air puzzle. Important: include a phone number where we can reach you.

Earlier on Sunday, Jayson Tatum had 28 points and 12 rebounds and Boston cruised to a 112-98 victory over Washington.
Tatum had missed two of the Celtics' (21-5) previous four games with a knee issue but returned to help them win a seventh straight over the Wizards, and third in Washington this season.
He hit three baskets during a 15-0 run that spanned across the first and second quarters, including a pull-up three with four seconds left in the first to stretch Boston's lead to 11 points.
Payton Pritchard and Derrick White added 15 points apiece, while Jordan Poole led the Wizards, who have lost three in a row and 16 of 17, with 21 points.

BRUSSELS/FRANKFURT/PARIS (dpa-AFX) - European stocks are seen opening on a mixed note Monday as investors brace for a busy week of central bank meetings and economic data releases.
The Federal Open Market Committee's meeting is due on Tuesday and Wednesday, with a 25-bps rate cut already priced in by markets.
Traders will pay close attention to the updated policy statement and Fed Chair Jerome Powell's press conference for clues on future interest rates under the Trump administration.
The Bank of Japan will announce its decision on Thursday, with markets currently weighing only a 25 percent chance for a rate hike following comments from board member Nakamura that the decision should be data dependent.
A decision by the Bank of England is due Thursday and no change in its policy rate is expected. The People's Bank of China will announce its loan prime rates decision on Friday.
This week's U.S. economic calendar includes preliminary purchasing managers index readings and data on retail sales, industrial production, housing starts and building permits and a second revision to third-quarter GDP.
The report on personal income and spending, which is scheduled to be released on Friday, includes the Fed's preferred readings on consumer price inflation.
Closer home, flash estimate purchasing managers' indices for France, Germany and the eurozone due later in the day may provide insight into the subdued outlook of the bloc.
Germany's Ifo and ZEW indices, GfK consumer climate survey and Eurozone final inflation figures for November will be watched closely as the week progresses.
Asian markets were broadly lower after the release of mixed economic readings from China.
China's industrial production grew as expected in November, while retail sales growth slowed sharply and fixed asset investment growth disappointed, fueling concerns over slowing demand.
Over the weekend, China's regulators have pledged to boost efforts to stabilize the housing and equity markets and conduct more effective fiscal policies.
Elsewhere in South Korea, lawmakers on Saturday impeached President Yoon Suk Yeol over his failed martial law bid.
The U.S. dollar hovered near a three-week high and gold ticked higher ahead of a possible hawkish rate cut by the Federal Reserve this week. Oil futures eased from their highest levels in weeks on China demand concerns.
U.S. stocks fluctuated before ending narrowly mixed on Friday as rising Treasury yields offset Broadcom's bullish AI-fueled sales forecast.
The Dow dipped 0.2 percent to end lower for the seventh consecutive session - marking its longest run of losses since 2020.
The tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite edged up by 0.1 percent while the S&P 500 closed marginally lower.
European stocks ended lower on Friday amid concerns over slowing growth and a potential trade war.
The pan European STOXX 600 dipped half a percent and snapped a three-week winning streak in the face of political and economic uncertainty in France.
The German DAX and the U.K.'s FTSE 100 both slid by 0.1 percent while France's CAC 40 eased 0.2 percent.

What makes fintech solutions so important in today’s digital world? Financial technology, or fintech, is changing how we manage money.
From mobile payments to online lending, the possibilities are endless. But what about Fintech regulatory challenges? Understanding them is key to making the right choices.
This guide will help you explore fintech solutions step by step. You’ll discover what they are, why they matter, and how they work. Ready to dive into the ultimate guide? Let’s begin!
What Experience Do You Have With Similar Projects?
Experience is essential when hiring someone for a fintech project. Ask about the types of clients they’ve worked with before.
Were they involved in banking, online payments, or digital lending systems? It’s important to find out if they’ve built systems like yours in the past. Their experience shows how well they understand challenges and how quickly they can solve problems.
Look for examples of past work and ask for details. Did they handle any complicated issues? Did their previous projects succeed?
Understanding their background gives you confidence that they can meet your specific needs. Always pick a team that matches your goals and has a proven record of success.
How Do You Handle Security and Compliance?
Security is vital in any financial technology system. Ask how they keep sensitive data safe from hackers. Do they use encryption to protect customer information?
Find out if they are familiar with global privacy laws and Fintech regulatory requirements. A good team will have a strong plan to ensure compliance. They should stay updated on changing rules and industry standards.
Ask how often they review security measures. Find out if they’ve dealt with data breaches and how they fixed them.
Strong security protects your business and builds customer trust. Make sure their approach keeps your data safe and follows all rules.
Can You Integrate With Other Systems?
Fintech platforms often need to work smoothly with other software. Ask if the team has experience connecting different tools. Have they integrated payment systems, banking APIs, or customer management software before?
A seamless integration avoids problems and saves you time. Check if they’ve used reliable methods to connect systems in the past. Find out how they handle technical challenges during integration.
Do they test everything to ensure it works properly? Proper integration allows your platform to work with existing tools and creates a smooth experience for users. Choose a team that understands your needs and ensures compatibility.
How Do You Communicate Progress?
Clear communication helps keep projects organized and on schedule. Ask how they plan to share updates with you. Will they provide written reports, emails, or regular meetings?
Find out how often they check in to discuss progress. A team that explains their work clearly can help you understand what’s happening.
Good communication prevents delays and fixes problems quickly. It also ensures that everyone is on the same page.
Choose a team that listens carefully to your feedback and answers your questions. Regular updates and clear explanations make the project smoother and build trust with the team.
What Tools and Technologies Do You Use?
Technology is key to building an efficient and reliable fintech platform. Ask what tools they prefer for development. Do they use modern programming languages and secure frameworks?
Find out if their technology choices match your needs. Tools like cloud-based platforms, secure databases, and analytics software improve performance. Ask if they use automated testing tools to check for errors.
Understanding the technology behind your platform helps you make informed decisions. Make sure they stay updated on the latest trends.
A team using outdated tools may not deliver the best results. Choose experts who rely on proven and efficient technologies.
Are You Familiar With Fintech Regulatory Requirements?
Fintech systems must follow laws specific to each country or region. Ask if the team knows about the regulations where you plan to operate. Are they aware of global privacy rules and data protection standards?
If the rules are complex, do they consult a fintech law firm for guidance? Following Fintech regulatory standards ensures your system avoids fines and legal issues. A team that stays updated on changing laws can help keep your platform compliant.
Find out if they’ve handled compliance challenges before. Having a clear plan for meeting regulatory requirements protects your business from costly mistakes.
What Is Your Approach to Testing?
Testing ensures your fintech platform works properly before it goes live. Ask how they test for bugs, security risks, and speed issues. Do they use automated tools or manual checks?
Testing should include every part of the system to avoid errors. Ask if they involve users in testing to ensure ease of use. Find out if they create a testing schedule to fix problems early.
A strong testing plan improves system reliability and saves time later. Look for a team that prioritizes quality checks and pays attention to detail. Proper testing ensures your platform performs well for customers.
Can You Provide Post-Launch Support?
Launching your platform is only the beginning. Post-launch support is important for keeping your system running smoothly. Ask if they offer regular updates to improve performance.
Will they fix bugs or handle crashes quickly? Check if they provide training to help your team use the system effectively. A reliable team will stay available to solve issues after the project ends.
Find out how they handle unexpected problems or requests for new features. Post-launch support builds trust and keeps your business moving forward. Choose a team committed to helping you long after the system goes live.
Consider This Guide to Fintech Solutions
Fintech solutions are transforming how we use financial technology every day. Choosing the right team ensures success and builds long-term trust.
Asking the right questions helps you avoid common mistakes. Fintech legal services and compliance are vital for secure systems. A well-chosen partner simplifies processes and strengthens your fintech journey.

Cricket-India 48-4 as rain halts Australia's advance at Gabba
CRICKET-TEST-AUS-IND:Cricket-India 48-4 as rain halts Australia's advance at Gabba
By Ian Ransom
MELBOURNE -Australia captain Pat Cummins removed Rishabh Pant during a rare break in the rain on day three of the third test against India in Brisbane on Monday but the poor weather returned to halt the hosts' charge.
India were 48 for four, trailing Australia's first-innings total by 397 runs, as another downpour brought tea early at the Gabba.
Opener KL Rahul was unbeaten on 30 with India skipper Rohit Sharma yet to score.
Australia's bowlers could send down only 14.1 overs after being bowled out for 445 in the morning but paceman Cummins did well to have Pant caught behind for nine in the first over following a rain break.
Two balls later, following a glorious cover drive for four by Rahul off Mitchell Starc, the players trudged off the ground again.
Several rain breaks earlier, Starc had taken two wickets in six balls with the help of namesake Mitchell Marsh, while Josh Hazlewood removed Virat Kohli as India's reply got off to a dreadful start.
Starc struck with the second ball of the innings, Yashasvi Jaiswal flicking a shot off his pads to be out for four, with Marsh jogging across from square leg to take an easy catch.
Big left-armer Starc then dismissed Shubman Gill for one as the number three drove at a full delivery to send a thick edge to Marsh, who leapt to his left in the gully to take a screamer of a catch.
Kohli lasted only 16 balls for his three runs, nibbling at a Hazlewood delivery to be caught behind.
Rahul survived, though, after wearing a painful blow on his wrist from Hazlewood's first ball of the morning.
Australia resumed in the morning on 405 for seven, losing their last three wickets for the addition of 40 runs.
Wicketkeeper Alex Carey contributed a valuable 70 before caught slogging, becoming recalled paceman Akash Deep's first and only wicket of the innings.
Jasprit Bumrah finished with 6-76, adding Starc to his haul after the tailender made a useful 18, while Mohammed Siraj bowled Nathan Lyon for two to finish with 2-97.

PC Jeweller shares hit 5% upper circuit today; why is stock in demand?
The company's board approved stock split on November 28, 2024 and decided to split 1 share having face value of Rs 10 each be sub-divided / split into 10 shares having face value of Rs 1
SI Reporter Mumbai PC Jeweller shares hit 5 per cent upper circuit in Monday's trade at Rs 18.35 per share on BSE. The stock was in demand on its stock split ex/record date which is today, December 16. On BSE, 1.033 million shares changed hands while, on NSE 7.605 million shares were traded.
The record date in a stock split is the specific date set by a company to determine which shareholders are eligible to receive additional shares from the split. Only those who own the stock by this date will qualify for the benefits of the stock split.
The ex-date (or ex-split date) is the date on or after which a stock trades without the entitlement to the stock split benefit. Investors who buy the stock on or after the ex-date will not be eligible for the additional shares from the split.
Around 10:43 AM, PC Jeweller share price was up 4.86 per cent at Rs 18.35 per share on BSE. In comparison, the BSE Sensex was down 0.31 per cent at 81,881.75. The market capitalisation of the company stood at Rs 8,548.16 crore. The 52-week high of the stock was at Rs 18.68 per share and the 52-week low was at Rs 3.23 per share.
The company's board approved stock split on November 28, 2024. It decided to split 1 share having face value of Rs 10 each be sub-divided / split into 10 shares having face value of Rs 1.
"For determining the eligibility of Members for the purpose of sub-division/split of equity shares of the Company, such that 1 (One) equity share having face value of Rs 10 (Rupees Ten Only) each, fully paid-up, be sub-divided / split into 10 (Ten) equity shares having face value of Rs 1 (Rupee One Only) each," the filing read.
PC Jeweller Limited is an Indian jewelry retailer specialising in the manufacture, sale, and trading of gold, diamond, and silver jewelry. The company offers a diverse range of products, including 100 per cent hallmarked gold jewelry, certified diamond jewelry, and silver articles.
In the past one year, PC Jeweller shares have gained 464 per cent against Sensex's rise of 15 per cent.

- The European Central Bank struck a dovish tone last week, backed up by comments from arch-hawk Robert Holzmann on Friday.
- Money markets are continuing to price in a fall in the key ECB rate to 1.75% by September next year, with a hold beyond that.
- Questions remain over what the central bank considers its "neutral rate" and whether it could go below that to support economic growth.
The European Central Bank delivered an expected quarter-point interest rate cut this week — and alongside the announcement came several indications that rates will swiftly move even lower early next year.
ECB President Christine Lagarde did note during her Thursday press conference that policymakers gathered in Frankfurt did not believe the fight against inflation is fully over, with services inflation still a concern.
Get top local stories in Philly delivered to you every morning. >Sign up for NBC Philadelphia's News Headlines newsletter.
However, on the whole, it was the most dovish meeting of the current cycle, not least because the ECB's fresh macroeconomic projections forecasted lower rates of inflation and economic growth both this year and next.
Economists also jumped on the removal of the ECB's message that the central bank must "keep policy rates sufficiently restrictive for as long as necessary." Lagarde stressed that there were downside risks to the already-weak euro zone growth outlook, but said the inflation picture had significantly improved and included upside risks. She also said that a larger, half-point cut had been debated, and that Governing Council (GC) members unanimously voted to reduce rates.
The new ECB staff forecast, meanwhile, put average headline inflation just above target at 2.1% in 2025, with stronger price rises expected at the start of the year suggesting it could fall below target later in the year.
Money Report
The dovish shift was emphasized Friday when Austrian central bank chief Robert Holzmann — widely perceived as the ECB's arch-hawk and the only Governing Council member to vote for a rate hold rather than a cut in June — told reporters there would be no danger in cutting rates next year if the economy progresses as expected, according to Reuters.
Where is neutral?
Holzmann also said markets had a "similar assessment to the central bank's" that interest rates will fall toward a neutral level — when monetary policy is balanced between boosting and restricting growth — of around 2% next year.
The ECB cut the deposit facility — its key rate — to 3% on Thursday.
What constitutes the neutral rate has been a key point of debate in recent months, and Lagarde said Thursday that while it had not been discussed at the December meeting, staff saw it between 1.75% and 2.5%.
A further question for market participants is whether the ECB will take rates below this neutral level if inflation cools even further and the growth outlook deteriorates, as has been floated by France's central bank governor, Francois Villeroy de Galhau.
This week's messaging has broadly confirmed existing market bets on the ECB's rate-cut plan for 2025.
According to LSEG data, money markets are continuing to price in a fall in the key ECB rate to 1.75% by September next year, with a hold beyond that.
But some analysts said there was now support for rate cuts going beyond that.
Deutsche Bank economists said in a Friday note that the ECB was on course for sub-neutral rates in 2025, given the trend for weak growth and below-target inflation.
They added that their baseline outlook was for a 1.5% rate at the end of 2025 via quarter-point cuts, but that a half-point move remained possible.
Dean Turner, chief euro zone and U.K. economist at UBS Global Wealth Management, stopped his forecast at a rate of 2% in June, but said risks were now "tilted towards the ECB having to do more, not less, to support the economy in 2025" — likely to mean further cuts later in the year rather than larger moves earlier on.
However, Kamil Kovar, senior economist at Moody's Analytics, argued in a note that stubborn core inflation would continue to spur ECB caution next year.
"We think that after March, the battle over how far to lower rates will start in earnest. We have no cut in April and the last cut in June, leaving rates at 2.25%," Kovar said.

AYESHA RASCOE, HOST:
It is, in many respects, a new world for students in Damascus, who went back to school today. They've been out since December 6 after rebels pushed toward Syria's capital, bringing an end to the regime of Bashar al-Assad. NPR's Hadeel Al-Shalchi spent time at one school and reports that it was a morning of mixed emotions.
(SOUNDBITE OF MUSIC)
HADEEL AL-SHALCHI, BYLINE: The iconic voice of the Lebanese diva Fairuz rings through the speakers across the playground of Al-Sharif al-Radi Elementary School in Damascus. Principal Abeer Halima watches her pupils run around. She greets parents and teachers with hugs and kisses. Some parents look worried as they drop off their children. Ibrahim al-Khudr stands at the school's gate, a cigarette in his hand. He cranes his head to make sure his 7-year-old daughter makes it through the school doors.
IBRAHIM AL-KHUDR: (Speaking Arabic).
AL-SHALCHI: There's some fear because things are chaotic right now, Khudr says. It's the first day back for children in Damascus after Syrian rebel forces entered the capital last week. Khudr says it was still very important for him to bring back his daughter.
AL-KHUDR: (Speaking Arabic).
AL-SHALCHI: "Education is a must," he says. "She needs to be educated." Emad al-Masri's son sprints into the playground.
EMAD AL-MASRI: (Speaking Arabic).
AL-SHALCHI: "The kid is usually late to school," he says. "Today, he couldn't wait to come." It's obvious the school has few resources. The building is run-down, and the classrooms are cold. The peeling walls are covered with paintings of seashells, flowers. The school makes do with what they have.
(SOUNDBITE OF SCHOOL BELL RINGING)
AL-SHALCHI: It's time for the students to gather. The children scurry into straight lines for an assembly. Principal Halima greets them with a good morning.
UNIDENTIFIED SCHOOLCHILDREN: (Speaking Arabic).
AL-SHALCHI: It's not loud enough.
ABEER HALIMA: (Speaking Arabic).
UNIDENTIFIED SCHOOLCHILDREN: (Speaking Arabic).
AL-SHALCHI: The sound of gunfire is audible over the playground during the assembly. Normally, the students sing the Syrian national anthem. Today is the first day they won't.
HALIMA: (Speaking Arabic).
AL-SHALCHI: "We'll be learning about the new flag," the principal tells her students, "learning about a new future, not to be afraid."
HALIMA: (Speaking Arabic).
UNIDENTIFIED SCHOOLCHILDREN: (Speaking Arabic).
HALIMA: (Speaking Arabic).
AL-SHALCHI: Then she points her finger to the sky and asks, who is with us? She waits for the students to reply, with God. The Free Syrian Army, a couple of boys shout instead. The children eventually disperse to their classrooms.
MAYSOON MOHAMED: (Speaking Arabic).
UNIDENTIFIED SCHOOLCHILDREN: (Speaking Arabic).
AL-SHALCHI: Forty-five-year-old teacher Maysoon Mohamed asks her students if they missed her. "A lot, a lot," they shout. Mohamed says she's so happy to be back at work. Wearing a fashionable jacket and knee-high leather boots, she hugs Principal Halima tightly, and tears run down her face. Fearing for their safety, Mohamed and her family fled to their village outside Damascus last week.
MOHAMED: (Speaking Arabic).
AL-SHALCHI: "I asked God that he'll bring us back together," she says. School inspector Najaat al-Adi buzzes around the hallways, greeting the teachers with kisses and embraces. She interrupts Mohamed's class to say hello.
NAJAAT AL-ADI: (Speaking Arabic).
UNIDENTIFIED SCHOOLCHILDREN: (Speaking Arabic).
AL-SHALCHI: Adi, who worked as an inspector under the old regime, says she received new orders from the interim minister of education, who was the deputy minister under President Bashar al-Assad. The instructions say she must make sure all remnants of the Assad regime have been taken down in the 60 schools she oversees.
AL-ADI: (Speaking Arabic).
AL-SHALCHI: Take down the old flag. Raise the new one, and paint the new flag on the walls. The custodian gets right to work. In a small storage room, he stacks up framed pictures of Assad and his father who ruled before him.
UNIDENTIFIED PERSON: (Speaking Arabic).
AL-SHALCHI: He runs them to the trash. He's obviously been busy. Crudely painted third stars have been carefully added to the center of the old Syrian flags. They're scattered around the school. In the new Syria, like the old, symbols are very important. Assad had clamped down on freedom of speech and cultivated an atmosphere of fear, and now sectarianism is at the forefront of the new Syria.
Alawites, the sect Assad hails from, and Shiites are particularly worried about where they will fit in. Adi says that fear is obvious today. Usually there are 600 students at the school. Only 100 showed up today.
AL-ADI: (Speaking Arabic).
AL-SHALCHI: "Many families of all sects didn't send their children to school," Adi says. But teacher Mohamed says she's hopeful that will change.
MOHAMED: (Speaking Arabic).
AL-SHALCHI: "We were raised in fear," she says. "It's unbelievable that we can express what's inside us now." And is Adi hopeful for a new Syria?
AL-ADI: (Speaking Arabic).
AL-SHALCHI: She doesn't answer yes or no. "God willing," she says.

Home renovation is an exciting journey that can breathe new life into your living space, improve functionality, and even increase the value of your property. Whether you’re updating a single room or undertaking a complete makeover, a well-planned approach can help ensure the process goes smoothly. Here are some key tips to guide you through your renovation project.
Start with a Clear Plan
Before swinging a hammer or purchasing materials, take the time to develop a detailed plan. This includes:
- Identifying which areas of your home need renovation.
- Setting a realistic budget.
- Hiring contractors or deciding what tasks you can handle yourself.
- Gathering inspiration for the look and feel you want to achieve.
A clear plan will act as a roadmap, keeping your project on track and within budget.
Prioritize Essential Repairs
If your home has structural issues or outdated systems, address these first. Problems like a leaky roof, faulty wiring, or inefficient plumbing should be resolved before focusing on aesthetics. Tackling these issues early ensures your home remains safe and functional throughout the renovation.
The Heart of the Home: Kitchen Renovation
The kitchen is often considered the heart of the home, making it one of the most impactful spaces to renovate. Upgrading your kitchen not only enhances its functionality but can also significantly boost your home’s resale value. When planning a kitchen renovation, consider:
- Replacing outdated appliances with energy-efficient models.
- Installing modern cabinetry and countertops to elevate the space.
- Improving the layout to create a more user-friendly workflow.
A well-designed kitchen can transform your cooking experience and make entertaining guests more enjoyable.
Maximize Space and Storage
Renovations are an excellent opportunity to rethink your space and improve storage. Consider:
- Adding built-in shelves or cabinets.
- Opting for multi-functional furniture.
- Using clever storage solutions like under-stair cupboards or wall-mounted racks.
Efficient use of space makes your home feel more organized and spacious.
Enhance Outdoor Spaces
Don’t forget about your home’s exterior when planning a renovation. Upgrading your outdoor spaces can extend your living area and create a perfect spot for relaxation or entertaining. Ideas include:
- Adding a deck or patio.
- Incorporating landscaping with native plants.
- Installing outdoor lighting to improve ambiance and safety.
Well-maintained outdoor areas can significantly enhance your home’s curb appeal and functionality.
Incorporate Energy Efficiency
Incorporating energy-efficient upgrades can reduce utility bills and make your home more sustainable. Some ideas include:
- Installing LED lighting.
- Upgrading to energy-efficient windows and doors.
- Adding insulation to keep your home comfortable year-round.
Finishing Touches
Once the major work is complete, focus on the finishing touches to tie everything together. Paint the walls, install new fixtures, and add decorative elements like rugs, curtains, and artwork to reflect your personal style.
Conclusion
After all the hard work, take the time to enjoy your newly renovated space. Whether it’s hosting a dinner in your upgraded kitchen or relaxing in your refreshed living room, a successful renovation should make your home more comfortable and tailored to your needs.
Embarking on a home renovation is no small task, but with careful planning and thoughtful execution, it can be a rewarding experience.

India look to iron out flaws in fielding against West Indies in 2nd WT20I
India look to iron out flaws in fielding against West Indies in 2nd WT20I
By Devarchit Varma
Navi Mumbai, A comprehensive 49-run win in the series opener in the bag, India will look to iron out their perpetual flaws in fielding when they take on the West Indies in the second women's T20I here on Tuesday.
Give a short turnaround time between their final ODI in Australia and the opening T20I here on Sunday, India produced a near-perfect performance to extend their winning streak to nine wins against the Caribbean side in T20Is.
But the persistent issue of being ordinary in the field came forth once again when each of Jemimah Rodrigues , Smriti Mandhana and Saima Thakor spilled a regulation catch each.
Thakor dropped Qiana Joseph when she was on 34 and the dangerous Deandra Dottin, who smacked a 28-ball 52 , was dropped once each by Rodrigues and Mandhana when she was on a flourish.
The dropped catches somewhat marred excellent efforts in the field by Minnu Manu, who had substituted Harmanpreet Kaur as the Indian captain missed most of India’s fielding innings due to an unspecified issue.
While the team did not specify what kept Kaur out of the field, the Indian captain did not look troubled in any manner during her 14-ball 13 not out.
Shortly after India's win, the coaching staff got working with youngsters Priya Mishra, Raghvi Bisht and Nandini Kashyap for a session of catching practice even though the nip in the air made their task difficult. But as the team keeps putting their efforts to improve fielding, regular mistakes drag them down.
Nevertheless, India’s batters gave a fine example of themselves by producing a unified effort. At the top, Uma Chetry played some spectacular drives through cover region in her first game as opener and Mandhana followed up her 105 in third ODI at Perth with her sixth fifty of the year.
But it was Rodrigues who showed her skills beyond leg-side region stroke-play in making a 35-ball 73 with nine fours and two sixes, producing a terrific knock which was indeed one of her best in the formats.
The West Indies were disappointed having not done justice to the preparations made for this tour, but the likes of Joseph, Dottin and Karishma Ramharack showed the promise of this side which has won most of their games in this format this year.
Both Joseph and Dottin used the long handle to an excellent effect but wickets fell at the wrong time for West Indies’ liking, who will certainly have to do better with the ball, having bowled 10 wides in the first game.
Squads:
India: Harmanpreet Kaur , Smriti Mandhana, Nandini Kashyap, Jemimah Rodrigues, Richa Ghosh , Uma Chetry , Deepti Sharma, Sajeevan Sajana, Raghvi Bist, Renuka Thakur, Priya Mishra, Titas Sadhu, Saima Thakor, Minnu Mani, Radha Yadav.
West Indies: Hayley Matthews , Shemaine Campbelle , Aaliyah Alleyne, Shamilia Connell, Nerissa Crafton, Deandra Dottin, Afy Fletcher, Shabika Gajnabi, Chinelle Henry, Zaida James, Qiana Joseph, Mandy Mangru, Ashmini Munisar, Karishma Ramharack, Rashada Williams.
Match starts at: 7:00pm IST.

Despite all the drama and the entertainment he brought into the house, Tajinder Bagga's journey has sadly come to an end. It was time for him to pack his bags and say goodbye to the Bigg Boss house after 90 days of stay.
Tajinder Bagga evicted
Tajinder Bagga managed to survive in the house despite not contributing much to the show. The politician got saved every week. Bagga was evicted due to the least number of votes. The other nominated contestants were Vivian Dsena, Karan Veer Mehra, Chahat Pandey, Edin Rose and Digvijay Singh Rathee. Avinash Mishra, Eisha Singh, Vivian Dsena, and Shrutika Arjun were sad after Bagga's eviction as the political leader was close to them in the house
After his eviction, Bagga shared a photo of himself from Hanuman Mandir on X and wrote in Hindi, "70 days ago I started my journey by paying obeisance here. As soon as I came back to Delhi, I came here and had darshan. Inside the house we (I, Shrutika, Eisha, Chum, Shilpa ji) used to start the day with Hanuman Chalisa and Mahamrityunjaya Mantra which gave us a different energy every day. Your love kept me in @BiggBoss's house for 10 weeks, I am very grateful and thankful to everyone. Jai Bajrang Bali, Jai Mahakal."
Earlier while talking to SCREEN, Tajinder Bagga had shared his reason for going on the show. “Every politician is hungry to get fame. No one will ever confess this. But Bigg Boss is a platform that is seen in every household. I accepted the offer because I wanted to reach a wider audience. I am not a hypocrite like others. When we are in politics, we come across as fake even when we address the audience. I hope with this people see my genuine side too. If you are not wrong, you shouldn’t be scared, unless you are being fake,” he said.
He also shared, “Acting these days has a lot of politics, and politics these days has a lot of acting involved. There are a lot of politicians who are sitting in Delhi as CMs who are acting.”
More about Bigg Boss 18
The contestants who had entered Bigg Boss 18 were Hemlata Sharma, Nyra Banerjee, Muskan Bamne, Tajinder Pal Singh Bagga, Rajat Dalal, Chum Darang, Karan Veer Mehra, Shehzada Dhami, Vivian Dsena, Eisha Singh, Shrutika Raj Arjun, Chahat Pandey, Shilpa Shirodkar, Gunaratna Sadavarte, Avinash Mishra, Alice Kaushik, Sara Arfeen Khan and Arfeen Khan. The wild card entries were Splitsvilla 15 fame Kashish Kapoor and Digvijay Rathee. Later, Yamini Malhotra, Edin Rose and Aditi Mistry also entered as wildcards.
The theme for this season of Bigg Boss is past, present and future. Hema was the first contestant to have been evicted from Bigg Boss 18 followed by Muskan Bamne. In the October 27 episode, Nyrra Bannerji was evicted. Others who have left the house are Shehzada Dhami, Arfeen Khan, Aditi Mistry, Gunaratna Sadavarte, Alice Kaushik and Tajinder Bagga.

PG Electroplast extends rally on healthy outlook; zooms 54% in 1 month
On December 10, the company allotted 21.5 million to QIBs, including Motilal Mutual Fund, Nippon Mutual Fund, Kotak Mutual Fund and Axis Mutual Fund, at Rs 699 per share
Deepak Korgaonkar Mumbai PG Electroplast shares hit a new high of Rs 960.75, gaining 4 per cent on the BSE in Monday’s intra-day trade in an otherwise subdued market on a healthy outlook. The stock of the consumer electronics company has continued trading at its upward movement after successfully raising Rs 1,500 crore via a qualified institutional placement (QIP) issue.
Currently,
PG Electroplast is trading 37 per cent higher over its QIP issue price of Rs 699 per share. In comparison, the BSE Sensex was down 0.35 per cent at 81,849 at 09:33 AM.
On December 10, the company allotted 21.46 million equity shares to qualified institutional buyers (QIBs), including Motilal Mutual Fund (4.29 million), while Nippon Mutual Fund, Kotak Mutual Fund and Axis Mutual Fund were allotted 2.07 million shares.
In one month, the stock price of PG Electroplast has rallied 54 per cent, as compared to the 5.8 per cent rise in the BSE Sensex. Thus far in the calendar year 2024, the company's stock has zoomed 302 per cent, as against the 13 per cent rally in the benchmark index.
Last month, PG Electroplast announced a foray into electric vehicle (EV) manufacturing with an agreement with Spiro Mobility, an affordable electric two-wheeler company based in Africa. As a part of the agreement, the company will become an exclusive manufacturing partner of electric vehicles of Spiro Mobility in India.
PG Electroplast is an original design manufacturer (ODM) and contract manufacturer (CM), for the consumer durables industry in India, with its primary focus on manufacturing of room air conditioners (RACs), washing machines and plastic moulding.
The company provides end–to–end solutions across the entire value chain of the products it supplies to customers, which include more than 19 leading domestic and international brands. This includes product conceptualisation, designing and prototyping, tool design and manufacturing, supply chain development and final assemblies for products like RACs, washing machines, LED TVs and air coolers, among others.
PG Electroplast has achieved revenue of around Rs 1,991 crore in the first half (April to September) of the financial year 2024-25 (H1FY25), a growth of approximately 75 per cent from Rs 1,138 crore in H1FY24 and is expected to clock revenue of over Rs 3,500 crore for full fiscal 2025 and over Rs 4,000 crore in fiscal 2026, aided by the increasing penetration and increasing demand of the RAC segment in India.
Operating margins for the company have been continually improving supported by benefits of backward integration and increased contribution from the ODM segment, wherein operating margins are better than OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) segment. Operating margins have improved to 9.8 per cent in H1FY25 vis-à-vis 9.5 per cent in H1FY24 and are expected to be around 9-10 per cent over the medium term, according to CRISIL Ratings.
With the in-house capacity and huge demand, the income from product business is expected to improve further going forward. Most of the operations are backward-integrated and the processes are carried out in-house. Backward integration gives it the flexibility to control the manufacturing processes and reduce dependence on external suppliers, which has enabled it to become a consistent and reliable ODM supplier and contract manufacturer, the rating agency said.

Russia's central bank is expected to carry out a mammoth rate hike later this week as inflation continues to soar in the war-focused economy.
Russia's consumer price index continues to rise despite repeated rate hikes by the central bank designed to tame the rampant price rises. The consumer price index hit 8.9% in November compared to the same month in the previous year, up from 8.5% in October, driven principally by rising food prices.
A weaker ruble — following new U.S. sanctions in November — has also fueled inflation, driving up the cost of imports into Russia, a country whose economy has been hit hard following its invasion of Ukraine in 2022.

Russian food prices are soaring — but no one dares blame Putin and the war
Russia tries to stem panic over the plummeting ruble, as the central bank is forced to intervene
Economists now expect Russia's central bank, the CBR, to hike rates by 200 basis points at its meeting on Dec. 20 — taking the country's key interest rate to 23%.
"The renewed acceleration in Russian inflation to 8.9% year-on-year in November, and likelihood of further increases in the coming months, argue strongly in favour of another large interest rate hike from the central bank," Liam Peach, senior Emerging Markets economist at Capital Economics, said in a note last week.
Money Report
Prices are set to continue to rise, he added, with inflation likely to rise "far above" 9.0% year-on-year by the end of 2025.
"With firms’ price expectations also hitting new highs recently, there’s a clear argument that the central bank is losing the battle against inflation and that it will be forced to hike rates sharply again ... A 200 basis point rate hike is the base case in our view, but there are arguments in favour of a larger hike," Peach said.
Price rises
The central bank enacted a 200 basis point rate hike at its last meeting in October, warning that inflation was running "considerably above" its summer forecast and that inflation expectations continue to increase.
"Growth in domestic demand is significantly outstripping the capabilities to expand the supply of goods and services," the CBR said in a statement.
Russian consumers have been hit especially hard as basic foodstuffs, such as butter, eggs, sunflower oil and vegetables, have seen high double-digit price increases as demand outstrips supply.
Russia's war against Ukraine has also caused labor and supply shortages which have pushed up wage and production costs — and these costs have ultimately been passed on to consumers. The government, however, blames the high cost of living on sanctions imposed on Russia by "unfriendly" countries. For his part, Russian President Vladimir Putin has denied swapping "butter for guns."
The International Monetary Fund predicts Russia will log 3.6% growth in 2024 before a deceleration next year, when 1.3% growth is forecast. The "sharp slowdown," the IMF said, was envisaged "as private consumption and investment slow amid reduced tightness in the labor market and slower wage growth."
Weak ruble
While Russia has looked to evade the pain of sanctions with import substitution and oil and gas exports to countries willing to accept them, international penalties are hurting.
The Russian ruble fell sharply against the dollar in November, weakening to 114 against the greenback — its lowest level since March 2022 — after another round of U.S. sanctions targeted Russia's third-largest bank Gazprombank. The measures are aimed at preventing the bank — which the U.S. Treasury said acts as a conduit for Russia to purchase military materials and pay Russian soldiers — from handling any energy-related transactions that involve the U.S. financial system.
The ruble's sharp move lower prompted the central bank to intervene to prop up the currency, with the CBR saying it would halt foreign purchases on the domestic currency market for the rest of the year "in order to reduce the volatility of financial markets."
Putin commented on the situation last month, insisting that the situation is under control.
"There are absolutely no grounds for panic," Putin told reporters, news agency RIA Novosti reported.
"As for the fluctuations in the ruble exchange rate, this is connected not only with inflation processes, it is also connected with payments to the budget, it is connected with oil prices. There are many factors of a seasonal nature," he added, in comments translated by Google.
The ruble has strengthened in recent weeks but remains down around 3% against the dollar over the past month. It was last trading at 103 against the greenback Monday.
There's little that Russia's central bank can do to tackle inflation— and the ruble's deterioration — while the war continues, according to analysts Alexandra Prokopenko and Alexander Kolyandr.
"The fundamental reasons for the ruble's weakness have not gone anywhere, and the dynamic of Russia's trade flows means the currency is destined to falter and inflation to rise," they noted in analysis for Carnegie Politika.
"As the Russian economy slows despite significant state spending, the dynamics of the ruble exchange rate suggest the country is heading for stagflation (a toxic combination of slow growth and rising prices)," they said.
"The root cause is the war and ensuing Western sanctions and militarization of Russia's economy. The country's financial authorities don't have the power to solve this problem — and they're even afraid to speak about it publicly."

SCOTT DETROW, HOST:
By many measures, California is a shining success story. On its own, it boasts the world's fifth-largest economy. It's one of the richest states in the U.S., with one of the country's highest per capita incomes. And California is also a place where Hollywood and Silicon Valley have set a standard for the U.S. and created a mythical, romantic version of the state that looms over pop culture. But in recent years, it is a story that has been told of one as a state in decline. And according to that narrative, the most populous state is overregulated and too expensive to live in, and so much so, according to some, that people are fleeing it in droves. But how true is that story? To answer, I am joined now by Tessa McLean, the California editor at the online publication SFGATE. She dug into this narrative - not just the current one, but previous times that everybody has been talking about California failing. Welcome to ALL THINGS CONSIDERED.
TESSA MCLEAN: Thanks for having me.
DETROW: Let's just start with the now - how dire is it? Is the California dream over? Are we packing it up?
MCLEAN: (Laughter) No, the California dream is not quite over yet, though many would say it is dying. The population in the last three years has declined, but it's never declined more than 1%. Each year since 2021, it's declined by a smaller and smaller number, and in 2023, it only declined 0.09%, according to figures from the State Department of Finance. So growth is simply slowing. It has not fully declined.
DETROW: But this led you to take a broader look because, you know, I covered California politics for a couple of years, and I heard this at the time I was there, and it seems like such a constant. This state is too expensive. It's overregulated. It's killing itself, and people are leaving in droves. And yet, the population - big-picture - continues to go up, the economy continues to grow. Why did you want to take a look back at these previous moments of doom and gloom? What was interesting about it to you?
MCLEAN: I write a lot about the movement of Californians, whether that's leaving the state entirely for a different state like Texas or Montana or whether they're moving around within the state itself. So I really wanted to take a look at the population data and see how big any decline has been in recent years and find out if this was a new phenomenon or if this had in fact been happening for years.
DETROW: Yeah.
MCLEAN: And leading up to the most recent election, it felt like California was in the spotlight more than ever. Kamala Harris was born in the Bay Area. She started her career in California, and that fact was often used against her. Meanwhile, Donald Trump is boasting about how Elon Musk left California for Texas. And Governor Gavin Newsom is sparring with the governors of Texas and Florida, and these conversations are making the national news. I wanted to take a step back and examine America's obsession with California failing.
DETROW: To be clear, though, you're not saying that some of the real problems that are being flagged, like the high cost of living, the cost of housing, in particular, aren't real. It's just that they may be overblown in terms of leading people to flee the state in droves?
MCLEAN: Absolutely. California is an expensive place to live. There's no doubt about it. And that high housing costs and all the cost of living expenses that come along with that are a big reason - the main reason, mainly - why people leave. There's been a lot more migration within the state itself, especially since the pandemic. You know, people might be leaving large coastal metros like San Francisco or Los Angeles for places like the Inland Empire or Sacramento, more so than are leaving the state itself.
DETROW: Why do you think then there's such an impulse over the years - and you're talking about the dot-com bust, you're talking about earlier periods in the 20th century. Why do you think there's such an interest in declaring the death of California?
MCLEAN: California has always been a prosperous place. It's a place that people look to, to go find wealth and success. People have been migrating out to California, looking for the California dream since the Gold Rush. And so I think that idea of the California dream is really important for people, and it really draws people out there.
DETROW: Were there any interesting parallels that you picked up on when you compared these moments?
MCLEAN: Yeah. I mean, the parallels is that the reasons that people are leaving are almost always the same. It's high housing costs. It's traffic. It's overpopulated cities, people just being fed up with the politics of the state. Those reasons never really changed, whether it's 1989 or 2023.
DETROW: That's Tessa McLean, the California editor at SFGATE. Her piece, "America's Obsession With California Failing," is at sfgate.com. Thanks so much for talking to us.
MCLEAN: Thank you. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.

Jason Gillespie exposes PCB in scathing attack, reveals 'poor communication, being blindsided' as reason for resignation
Jason Gillespie clearly stated that the communication between him and the PCB was unclear, and this led to him resigning as the red-ball coach.
Jason Gillespie recently resigned as Pakistan's Test coach. He has finally opened up about his reasons for stepping down, just days ahead of the upcoming two-test series against South Africa. In a scathing attack against the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB), Gillespie said that he was never wanted as the coach.
Jason Gillespie took over the reins of the Pakistan Test team in April 2024 and oversaw the 2-1 series win against England.
Without mincing his words, Gillespie clearly stated that the communication between him and the PCB was unclear, and the sacking of high-performance coach Tim Neilsen eventually forced him to step down.
Gillespie also made some shocking revelations, saying he would get the communication about the players of the squad just a day before the match.
Speaking to ABC Sport, Gillespie said, "There were certainly challenges. I went into the job eyes wide open, I want to make that really clear. I knew that, you know, Pakistan had cycled through a number of coaches in a pretty short space of time."
"The straw that broke the camel's back, I suppose, was, as a head coach, you like to have clear communication with your employer. I was completely and utterly blindsided by a decision to not have a high-performance coach," he added.
'Completely blindsided'
Jason Gillespie also revealed that he was completely blindsided by the decision to not have a high-performance coach. He revealed that the feedback given to him regarding Neilsen and the team's performance was positive, so there was no reason to sack the high-performance coach.
"Tim Nielsen was told that his services were no longer required, and I had absolutely zero communication from anyone about that, and I just thought after a number of other things that had gone on in the previous few months, that was probably the moment where I thought, 'Well, I'm not really sure if they actually really want me to do this job or not'," said Gillespie.
"I developed a really close relationship with the test captain, Shan Masood, and felt we were certainly going in the right direction and things were going really well. All the feedback that I'd got or the feedback the PCB got was just how effective, you know, Tim had been in his role as well, and the players were getting a lot out of him," he added.
For the uninitiated, Pakistan lost the first Test against England by an innings and 47 runs. However, the hosts turned their fortunes around and won the series 2-1.
Recently, former South Africa batter Gary Kirsten also resigned as Pakistan's white-ball coach. Gillespie oversaw the white-ball series against Australia as well.
"I felt I was basically hitting catches, and that was about it on the morning of a game," he said.
"You want to be able to have clear communication with all stakeholders, with selectors, for instance, knowing what the team is as head coach well before the game, or before at least the day before the game," he added.
After Gillespie's resignation, Aqib Javed has been named as the interim Test coach of Pakistan.

AYESHA RASCOE, HOST:
Every year, millions of folks get real live Christmas trees from stores and tree lots. They're precut and ready to go. But what if you want to be more hands-on, as in more hands on axe? Pierce Gentry of member station WUOT has this story of a farm in the foothills of the Smoky Mountains that offers a choose-and-cut experience.
PIERCE GENTRY, BYLINE: The Wilson Glyn Christmas Tree Farm could be a Hallmark movie set. The property comes complete with a historic farmhouse and a cantilever barn draped in garland and wreaths. First-time customer Tammy Onusic and her family pull up to the farm eager to pick out a live tree. It's a tough choice.
TAMMY ONUSIC: The other one.
HAL WILSON: That one right there?
ONUSIC: Yes.
WILSON: OK.
ONUSIC: Let's go back over to that one. Thank you.
WILSON: I'll take it right above the crook, right?
ONUSIC: OK.
I, every year, like to come and cut down a fresh Christmas tree. And I found this little farm here, and I wanted to drive all the way out here to cut it down.
GENTRY: They finally settle on a 10-foot tree sitting on a hillside.
(SOUNDBITE OF CHAINSAW REVVING)
WILSON: Here it comes.
(SOUNDBITE OF TREE CRASHING)
ONUSIC: Oh.
WILSON: There's your Christmas tree.
ONUSIC: I just think they're fresher, and they stay - it lasts longer, and they just smell so good in your house and stuff, too.
GENTRY: This small, family-owned farm offers this special experience to customers. They get to pick a tree and cut it down themselves with a saw or an axe.
WILSON: Every person that comes, there's a trigger that's Christmas to them.
GENTRY: That's Hal Wilson, who started growing Christmas trees on the farm 15 years ago.
WILSON: The tree farm is - sort of happened almost by accident. My daughter gave me a book that said "Christmas Trees: For Pleasure Or Profit." And I read it, and I thought, well, I could do that.
GENTRY: Now the farm sells about 600 trees each season, and Wilson's brothers and cousins come to help. And as it turns out, they're also pretty good at making music.
WILSON: We sang Christmas bluegrass gospel music - the old "Silent Nights" and "Joy To The World" - all those.
UNIDENTIFIED PERSON: The good stuff.
WILSON: The good stuff, right. We'll sing you a song, if you want us to.
GENTRY: Sure.
THE WILSON FAMILY: (Singing) Joy to the world, the Lord is come. Let Earth receive her king...
GENTRY: Wilson calls his family over to sing a cappella.
THE WILSON FAMILY: (Singing) Prepare him room. And heaven and nature sing. And heaven and nature...
WILSON: It's more than getting a real tree. You can get a real tree at all the stores. There's something more, I think, to coming out and experiencing - I'll call it real life.
THE WILSON FAMILY: ...(Singing) With truth and grace.
GENTRY: The slice of real life is what people come for, but they walk away with more than just a cut tree. They also get some Christmas spirit. For NPR News, I'm Pierce Gentry in Sevierville, Tennessee.
THE WILSON FAMILY: ...(Singing) And wonders of His love, and wonders of His love. And wonders and wonders of His love.
(SOUNDBITE OF SONG, "JOY TO THE WORLD")
THE TABERNACLE CHOIR: (Singing) Joy to the world... Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.

Kane Williamson falls short of Sachin Tendulkar's record; goes past Ponting in star-studded list with Hamilton century
Kane Williamson scored 156 in the third innings in Hamilton against England, continuing to shine at his favourite Test venue.
Kane Williamson continues to be a dominant force with bat in hand, especially in home conditions, as he brought up his 33rd Test century with a well-made 156 against England at Seddon Park in Hamilton. The New Zealand great continues to rack up the runs and climb up the centuries list, and finally scoring a ton in the inaugural Crowe-Thorpe Trophy in New Zealand this month.
Williamson also became the third-fastest cricketer to register 33 centuries in Test cricket with this knock, doing so in 186 innings. Williamson reached this mark faster than Younis Khan, who took 194 innings, as well as Steven Smith and Kumar Sangakkara, who did so in 199 innings. Williamson remains toe-to-toe with Smith, who brought up his own 33rd Test century with his ton against India at the Gabba in Brisbane this week.
The Kiwi batter sits behind only Ricky Ponting, with 178 innings, and just behind Sachin Tendulkar, who did so in 183 innings. Williamson had the chance to overtake Tendulkar earlier in this series, reaching 93 in his 181st innings in Christchurch, before falling in the nervous 90s.
178 inns: Ricky Ponting
183 inns: Sachin Tendulkar
186 inns: Kane Williamson
194 inns: Younis Khan
199 inns: Steve Smith
199 inns: K Sangakkara
Williamson continues to dominate in Hamilton
With his potentially match-winning knock in Hamilton, Williamson also knocked down a host of other records. He became only the eighth cricketer to have 20 centuries or more in one country, following in the footsteps of greats such as Ponting, Tendulkar, Sangakkara, and Jacques Kallis. He also became the first player to have scored 20 centuries in New Zealand.
Williamson continued his love affair with Seddon Park as well, with this being his fifth consecutive match with a century at the venue. Williamson is the first ever player to rack up five consecutive centuries at one ground, overtaking a long list of players who have done so in four consecutive matches.
With his century, Williamson also became the player with the best average at single venue with at least 20 innings played at that ground. He now averages 94.94 at Seddon Park in Hamilton, ahead of Brian Lara in Antigua, where the Windies legend averaged 78. Only Sangakkara (8 centuries at Colombo SSC), Kallis (9 in Cape Town), Donald Bradman (9 at the MCG) and Mahela Jayawardene (11 at Colombo SSC) have more Test centuries at one venue than Williamson’s 7 at Seddon Park.

Does Applying Ghee to Nostrils Reduce Allergy in Children? Expert Says No, It Causes Deadly Lipoid Pneumonia
A popular method of applying ghee on your nostrils—believed to reduce allergy symptoms—can cause dangerous ailments like lipid pneumonia, according to experts. Lipoid pneumonia is a rare condition that occurs when fat particles enter the lungs. And cause inflammation. Read on to know more.
Ghee is made with whole milk and is about 62 per cent saturated fat
It is a popular age-old belief that applying ghee to your nostrils can prevent weather-related colds and coughs, respiratory diseases, allergies, chronic cough, and rhinitis, among other ailments. According to Ayurveda, the ancient medicinal practice, ghee in your nostrils keeps infections and chronic diseases at bay. However, experts say it can be dangerous for those battling allergies.
Dr. Cyriac Abby Philips, a renowned liver doctor, slammed a social media influencer who advocated applying warm ghee on children’s noses to relieve infections.
“How does applying saturated fat in the form of clarified butter inside and outside the nose reduce allergic inflammation, which is a type 2 immune disorder classically characterized by high levels of immunoglobulin E?” Dr. Philips wrote on X.
“Keep doing it until you get lipoid pneumonia,” he said in a response on social media.
Ghee is made with whole milk and is about 62 per cent saturated fat. Experts say saturated fat can increase LDL or bad cholesterol levels, which causes heart disease and stroke. The American Heart Association recommends that saturated fat should make up no more than 5-6 per cent of your daily calories.
What is lipoid pneumonia?
Lipoid pneumonia is a rare condition that occurs when fat particles enter the lungs. Lipoids, also known as lipids, are fat molecules that cause inflammation of the lungs. There are two types of lipoid pneumonia:
Exogenous lipoid pneumonia
This happens when the fat particles enter from outside your body and reach the lungs through the nose or mouth.
Endogenous lipoid pneumonia
In this type, also known as cholesterol pneumonia, fat particles accumulate in the lungs, causing inflammation.
Signs and symptoms of lipoid pneumonia
Doctors say the symptoms of lipoid pneumonia vary from one person to another. While some do not have any symptoms, others experience mild signs. Symptoms of lipoid pneumonia worsen over time. In some cases, they can become severe or even life-threatening. Some common symptoms include:
- Chest pain
- Chronic cough
- Difficulty breathing
- High fever
- Coughing up blood
- Weight loss
- Night sweats
- Difficulty swallowing
Who is most at risk for lipoid pneumonia?
A few risk factors for lipoid pneumonia include:
- Neuromuscular disorders that affect the swallow reflex
- Forced intake of oil
- Those battling gastroesophageal reflux disease
- Snorting oil-based drugs
- Being unconscious
- Oil pulling
- Psychiatric and mental health disorders
- Throat or esophagus abnormalities, including hernias and fistulas
- Oral ingestion and aspiration of mineral oil used as laxatives
How is lipoid pneumonia treated?
Doctors say treatment of lipoid pneumonia depends on the type and cause of the condition, as well as the severity of symptoms. The lipoid pneumonia eliminates exposure to the fatty substance, which is often enough to improve symptoms. Your doctor might suggest using prescription anti-inflammatory medications like corticosteroids to reduce inflammation caused by lipoid pneumonia.
Other treatments include oxygen therapy and respiratory therapy, which make breathing easier for people with lipoid pneumonia.
Whole lung lavage may be used to ease symptoms of lipoid pneumonia caused by PAP. In this procedure, one of your lungs is filled with a warm saline solution and then drained while under anesthesia.
