This release was published on openPR.Washington and Louisville will meet in a football game for the first time when they play Tuesday in the Sun Bowl, and the two have met in men’s basketball just three times. A lot will be written about the upcoming football matchup, but what about the matchup of the universities and their hometowns, Seattle vs. Louisville? Let’s decide that winner now. Fight song: 'Bow Down to Washington' vs. 'Fight U of L' In case you didn’t get it the first time, “all hail” to Louisville is repeated five times in the Cardinals’ fight song. Louisville’s song includes “roll up the score now and beat the foe,” while UW's has the more ominous “heaven help the foes of Washington” line. Bonus for the Huskies’ fight song for having “the Dardanelles” in it. Not sure what that is? Look it up. Advantage: Washington University landmark buildings: Grawemeyer Hall vs. Denny Hall Louisville’s Grawemeyer Hall was built in 1928 and modeled after the Thomas Jefferson Rotunda at the University of Virginia. In front of the building is an original casting of sculptor Auguste Rodin’s The Thinker. Denny Hall, which opened in 1885) is a cool building but it doesn’t have The Thinker in front of it. Advantage: Louisville Team mascots: Harry the Husky vs. Louie the Cardinal Louie the Cardinal has been the mascot at Louisville since the 1980s and is known to occasionally lead the school band. Harry the Husky, which debuted in 1995, looks cute and cuddly. Louie, with it’s huge teeth and ominous stare, looks like it wants to tear you into pieces. Advantage: Louisville Famous politicians: Mitch McConnell vs. Henry Jackson McConnell, the longtime Senate majority leader, graduated from Louisville with a degree in political science. Jackson, the Everett native and longtime senator who ran for president in 1972 and 1976, got his law degree from Washington. Jackson’s nickname was “Scoop.” Can’t beat that. Advantage: Washington TV personalities: Diane Sawyer vs. Ken Jennings Sawyer, known for her decades of work covering news for ABC and CBS, briefly attended Louisville law school. She was the first woman correspondent on “60 Minutes.” Jennings, who went to UW as a freshman before going to BYU, turned his record 74 straight wins in “Jeopardy” into a lot of money and a chance to host the show. Advantage: Louisville Now, onto the city vs. city battle. Famous corporations: Kentucky Fried Chicken vs. Starbucks Kentucky Fried Chicken, founded by Harland “Colonel” Sanders, is based in Louisville. We all know where Starbucks is based. Sanders reportedly worked at the now-gone Twin Teepees restaurant on Aurora Avenue in the early 1940s. Starbucks founder Howard Schultz sold the Sonics and does not have a cool nickname. Advantage: Louisville Annual sporting events: Seafair Hydros vs. The Kentucky Derby The hydro races on Lake Washington drew estimated crowds of 400,000 people during the 1950s. That’s big even by standards of the Derby, which almost always draws at least 150,000 people. People still get all decked out for the Kentucky Derby and they wear amazing hats. The Derby also has a cool nickname (notice a trend here?): “The Run for the Roses." Advantage : Louisville Greatest athlete: Muhammad Ali vs. anyone from Seattle Seattle boasts short track speedskater Apolo Ohno, who holds the U.S. record for most medals in the Winter Olympics, Hall of Fame golfer Fred Couples and Hall of Fame baseball player Ron Santo among others. But this isn't close. Ali called himself “The Greatest” and it wasn’t hyperbole. Advantage: Louisville. Best century-old brand: Louisville Slugger vs. Oh Boy! Oberto The first Louisville Slugger baseball bat by Hillerich & Bradsby was made in 1884. The company was sold in 2015 to Wilson Sporting Goods. Constantino Oberto started the beef jerky company in 1918, and it was sold in 2018 to Premium Brand Holdings. There are few sweeter sounds than a baseball colliding with the sweet spot of a Louisville Slugger. But on the other hand, you can’t eat a baseball bat. Advantage: Tie Greatest musician: Jimi Hendrix vs. anyone from Louisville Seattle has produced many great musicians, but it would be hard to top Hendrix, regarded by many as the greatest guitar player. Mary Travers of “Peter, Paul and Mary,” the folk music group that was very popular in the 1960s, is from Louisville. Mia Zapata, the lead singer of the Seattle punk band "The Gits" before she was murdered in 1993, grew up in Louisville and is buried there. Advantage: Washington Housing and gas prices It’s certainly a lot cheaper to find a place to live and to drive in Lousville than it is in Seattle. According to Redfin, the median price of a house sold in Louisville in November was $255,000; in Seattle it was $850,000. The average cost of a gallon of gas in Louisville was $2.78. The average cost of a gallon of gas in the Seattle metro area is $4.16. Advantage: Louisville Weather Louisville averages about 6 more annual inches of rain than Seattle. Temperatures of the two cities are fairly similar in the winter. Summers are great in Louisville if you are into really hot (average over 85 degrees) and humid (average around 65%) weather. Then, there is the threat of tornadoes in Kentucky. The weather might partially explain why it costs so much more to live in Seattle. Advantage: Washington And the winner is: Louisville, by a score of 7-4-1. But Seattle still has much better summers.Stocks closed higher on Wall Street at the start of a holiday-shortened week. The S&P 500 rose 0.7% Monday. Several big technology companies helped support the gains, including chip companies Nvidia and Broadcom. The Dow Jones Industrial Average added 0.2%, and the Nasdaq composite rose 1%. Honda’s U.S.-listed shares rose sharply after the company said it was in talks about a combination with Nissan in a deal that could also include Mitsubishi Motors. Eli Lilly rose after announcing that regulators approved Zepbound as the first prescription medicine for adults with sleep apnea. Treasury yields rose in the bond market. THIS IS A BREAKING NEWS UPDATE. AP’s earlier story follows below. Major stock indexes rose on Wall Street in afternoon trading Monday, after a choppy start to a holiday-shortened week. The S&P 500 rose 0.6%. The Dow Jones Industrial Average recovered from an early slide to gain 29 points, or 0.1% as of 3:40 p.m. Eastern time. The tech-heavy Nasdaq composite rose 0.8%. Gains in technology and communications stocks helped outweigh losses in consumer goods companies and elsewhere in the market. Semiconductor giant Nvidia, whose enormous valuation gives it an outsize influence on indexes, rose 3.3%. Broadcom climbed 5.5% to also help support the broader market. Walmart fell 2% and PepsiCo slid 1.2%. Japanese automakers Honda Motor and Nissan said they are talking about combining in a deal that might also include Mitsubishi Motors. U.S.-listed shares in Honda jumped 13.4%, while Nissan slipped 0.2%. Eli Lilly rose 3.5% after announcing that regulators approved Zepbound as the first and only prescription medicine for adults with sleep apnea. Department store Nordstrom fell 1.6% after it agreed to be taken private by Nordstrom family members and a Mexican retail group in a $6.25 billion deal. The Conference Board said that consumer confidence slipped in December. Its consumer confidence index fell back to 104.7 from 112.8 in November. Wall Street was expecting a reading of 113.8. The unexpectedly weak consumer confidence update follows several generally strong economic reports last week. One report showed the overall economy grew at a 3.1% annualized rate during the summer, faster than earlier thought. The latest report on unemployment benefit applications showed that the job market remains solid. A report on Friday said a measure of inflation the Federal Reserve likes to use was slightly lower last month than economists expected. Worries about inflation edging higher again had been weighing on Wall Street and the Fed. The central bank just delivered its third cut to interest rates this year, but inflation has been hovering stubbornly above its target of 2%. It has signaled that it could deliver fewer cuts to interest rates next year than it earlier anticipated because of concerns over inflation. Expectations for more interest rate cuts have helped drive a roughly 25% gain for the S&P 500 in 2024. That drive included 57 all-time highs this year. Inflation concerns have added to uncertainties heading into 2025, which include the labor market's path ahead and shifting economic policies under an incoming President Donald Trump. "Put simply, much of the strong market performance prior to last week was driven by expectations that a best-case scenario was the base case for 2025," said Brent Schutte, chief investment officer at Northwestern Mutual Wealth Management Company Treasury yields rose in the bond market. The yield on the 10-year Treasury rose to 4.59% from 4.53% late Friday. European markets were mostly lower, while markets in Asia gained ground. Wall Street has several other economic reports to look forward to this week. On Tuesday, the U.S. will release its November report for sales of newly constructed homes. A weekly update on unemployment benefits is expected on Thursday. Markets in the U.S. will close at 1 p.m. Eastern on Tuesday for Christmas Eve and will remain closed on Wednesday for Christmas.

How Poland became one of Europe’s biggest success storiesWhen Star Trek first aired in 1966, the idea of a communicator - a handheld device enabling instant communication - was science fiction. Smartphones today make Captain Kirk's communicator look primitive, offering capabilities far beyond what SF imagined. They're not just communication tools today, they're cameras, wallets, health trackers and entertainment hubs. We have entered the Star Trek future. 2024 has been another giant leap in proving that the future is arriving faster than we ever imagined. Consider the world around us. Drones are increasingly being used for agricultural surveys, medical supply deliveries and even disaster management. They have even taken over Indian weddings, buzzing like overzealous relatives to capture cinematic shots worthy of a Bollywood blockbuster. Electric 2-wheelers and e-rickshaws dominate streets. Security cameras are not just for offices and public spaces, they are now common in individual homes. Autonomous vehicles are being tested. I once joked that not even god could navigate India's chaotic roads. But it looks like algorithms have managed to bribe traffic gods. Delivery robots and robot waiters are making appearances, while EVs are gaining traction. Affordable smart devices powered by voice assistants manage lights, fans and even water pumps. Fitness-tracking wearables have become popular. And virtual reality devices are creating new entertainment experiences. Over 50% of retail transactions are now digital, with UPI processing billions of monthly payments. Even small vendors and roadside stalls accept money through QR codes. I won't forget the cheeky panhandler who whipped out a QR code and quipped, 'Arey bhai, no cash? No problem!' Home delivery services have revolutionised convenience, ensuring food and groceries reach doorsteps within minutes. What's most remarkable is the sheer pace of this transformation. Technological progress builds exponentially, with each innovation accelerating the next. Widespread adoption of smartphones, for example, has given rise to industries like digital payments, ecommerce and telemedicine . Initiatives like ' Digital India ' and 'Make in India' have further fuelled this exponential growth.

These breakthroughs, ranging from AI-driven diagnostics to precision gene-editing tools, promise to redefine industries, solve complex problems and unlock innovative solutions, paving the way for transformative growth and unprecedented opportunities. The possibilities are breathtaking. Autonomous vehicles could reduce traffic congestion and road accidents, especially in densely populated cities. AI-driven diagnostics will make comprehensive healthcare accessible to even the most remote areas - and affordable to the poor. RE projects are fighting climate change while paving the way for energy independence and sustainable growth. Advances in gene editing could eliminate diseases, while entrepreneurs like Elon Musk are working on taking humanity to the heavens. There is, however, a trilemma we face as tech advances: Does this innovation have the potential to benefit everyone equally? What are the risks and unintended consequences? Does it promote autonomy or dependency? These three questions are relevant to technologies like autonomous vehicles, AI-powered diagnostics, promising greater access to healthcare but with potential bias risks, and digital payment systems, transforming convenience, yet raising concerns about inclusivity and security. The choices we make in answering these questions will determine whether the tech we create becomes a force for good or takes down a dark path. The risks are real. Drones, while helpful in delivering life-saving supplies, can be - and, indeed, have been - weaponised or used for invasive surveillance. AI's promise of personalisation can easily turn into manipulation or reinforce biases encoded into its algorithms. The digital divide remains a critical issue. Addressing these challenges will require innovation, regulation and a commitment to ensuring inclusivity. Yet, optimism is warranted. Covid accelerated the adoption of telemedicine and online education, showing how quickly societies can adapt when faced with challenges. In cities and villages alike, the democratisation of information through smartphones and internet connectivity has created opportunities that were unimaginable just a decade ago. Aadhaar demonstrates how digital infra can transform governance and enable financial inclusion for millions. These advancements are opportunities to boldly go where no one has gone before - toward a future that is more just, sustainable and prosperous for all. But achieving this will require vigilance, humility and a steadfast commitment to our shared humanity. Each of us, as citizens and innovators, holds the power to shape a future - whether by learning, building or championing tech that uplifts and unites. Technology must be an enabler, not a divider. As we step into 2025, let us continue to harness the transformative power of technology, working together to build a future where progress uplifts everyone and innovation knows no boundaries.

LA Galaxy wins record 6th MLS CupCARSON, Calif. — The LA Galaxy finished 26th in the 29-team Major League Soccer standings just one season ago, and their biggest supporters boycotted certain matches to protest a decade of poor performance. The most successful club in league history seemed light years away from its luminous prime. When the Galaxy raised the MLS Cup again Saturday amid confetti and fireworks, their spectacular transformation was complete. In only one year, a team that was profoundly lost had rediscovered its peerless championship pedigree. "We won this trophy, and it's finally back where it belongs," striker Dejan Joveljic said. Joseph Paintsil and Joveljic scored in the first half, and the Galaxy won their record sixth MLS Cup championship with a 2-1 victory over the New York Red Bulls. After striking twice in the first 13 minutes of the final, the Galaxy nursed their lead through a scoreless second half to raise their league's biggest trophy for the first time since 2014. MLS' most successful franchise struggled through most of the ensuing years, but everything changed after LA spent smartly in the offseason to build a high-scoring new lineup topped by Paintsil, Joveljic and Gabriel Pec. The Galaxy finished second in the Western Conference and streaked through the postseason with an MLS playoff-record 18 goals in five games to win another crown. "I'm just so proud of this group after the challenges that we (had) and the way they bounced back and competed as a group," Galaxy coach Greg Vanney said. "We spent a lot of energy at the start, but I'm just so proud of these guys. They've cemented themselves as legends in this club." The Galaxy even won this title without perhaps their most important player. Riqui Puig, the playmaking midfielder from Barcelona who ran their offense impressively all season long, tore a ligament in his knee last week in the conference final. Puig watched this game in a suit, but the Catalan catalyst's teammates hadn't forgotten him: After his replacement, Gastón Brugman, set up LA's opening goal with a superb pass in the ninth minute, Paintsil held up Puig's jersey to their roaring fans during the celebration. "I was really waiting for this moment," said Paintsil, who scored his 14th goal of an impressive season. "I'm much more, 10 times faster than them, and Gaston saw the space. ... It was really a good thing. We did it for Riqui, and we did it for our family that came, and our supporters." Just four minutes later, Joveljic sprinted past four New York defenders and chipped home his 21st goal. Brugman was named the MLS Cup MVP after a commanding performance in midfield. The Uruguayan hadn't started a match for the Galaxy since Oct. 5 after an injury-slowed season, playing only as a postseason substitute before the final. "I dreamed of that yesterday, of something I could give to the team," Brugman said of his pass to Paintsil. "Today, it happened." Sean Nealis scored for the seventh-seeded Red Bulls, whose improbable postseason charge ended one win shy of their first Cup championship. With the league's youngest roster, New York fell just short of becoming the lowest-seeded team to win the tournament under first-year German coach Sandro Schwarz. "I love these guys," Schwarz said. "Some guys, they are crying. In the big picture, that's a start. Sometimes when you lose the final, it's tough, but you use this experience to create the next energy, the next intensity." Galaxy goalkeeper John McCarthy made four saves to win his second MLS title in three seasons, but Nealis beat the 2022 MLS Cup MVP in the 28th minute when he volleyed from the penalty area. The second half was lively: Red Bulls captain Emil Forsberg hit the outside of the post in the 72nd minute, while Pec and Galaxy substitute Marco Reus nearly converted chances a few moments later. The ball got loose in the Galaxy's penalty area in the third minute of extra time, but two Red Bulls couldn't finish. After Galaxy owner Phil Anschutz received the MLS Cup that bears his name because of his steady financial support of the league during its shaky years, Galaxy captain Maya Yoshida carried the trophy to his teammates for the celebration. The Galaxy extended their lead over DC United (4) for the most MLS Cup championships in league history. The Red Bulls remain one of three original MLS franchises never to win the title, along with FC Dallas and the New England Revolution. The Galaxy finished 17-0-3 this season at their frequently renamed suburban stadium, where the sellout crowd of 26,812 for the final included several robust cheering sections of Red Bulls supporters hoping to see their New Jersey-based club's breakthrough. But this season was about the Galaxy's rebirth. The club famous for employing global stars from David Beckham and Zlatan Ibrahimovic to Robbie Keane and Javier "Chicharito" Hernández swiftly turned itself into a contender again by acquiring young talents without international fame. The Galaxy signed Pec from Brazil and grabbed Paintsil, a Ghanaian playing in Belgium. The duo combined with Joveljic to form a potent attack with orchestration from Puig, one of MLS' best players. "Losing a guy like Riqui after the performance he put in all season was devastating," McCarthy said. "Even if he wasn't on the field, we did it for him." Get local news delivered to your inbox!

The government was forced to deny rumors that President Bashar Assad had fled the country. The loss of Homs is a potentially crippling blow for Assad. It stands at an important intersection between Damascus and Syria’s coastal provinces of Latakia and Tartus — the Syrian leader’s base of support and home to a Russian strategic naval base. The pro-government Sham FM reported that government forces took positions outside Syria’s third-largest city, without elaborating. Rami Abdurrahman who heads the Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, said Syrian troops and members of different security agencies have withdrawn from the city, adding that rebels have entered parts of it. The capture of Homs is a major victory for insurgents, who have already seized the cities of Aleppo and Hama , as well as large parts of the south, in a lightning offensive that began Nov. 27. Analysts said Homs falling into rebel hands would be a game-changer. The rebels' moves around Damascus, reported by the monitor and a rebel commander, came after the Syrian army withdrew from much of southern part of the country, leaving more areas, including several provincial capitals, under the control of opposition fighters. For the first time in the country’s long-running civil war, the government now has control of only three of 14 provincial capitals: Damascus, Latakia and Tartus. The advances in the past week were among the largest in recent years by opposition factions, led by a group that has its origins in al-Qaida and is considered a terrorist organization by the U.S. and the United Nations. In their push to overthrow Assad's government, the insurgents, led by the Hayat Tahrir al-Sham group, or HTS, have met little resistance from the Syrian army. The rapid rebel gains, coupled with the lack of support from Assad's erstwhile allies, posed the most serious threat to his rule since the start of the war. The U.N.’s special envoy for Syria, Geir Pedersen, on Saturday called for urgent talks in Geneva to ensure an “orderly political transition.” Speaking to reporters at the annual Doha Forum in Qatar, he said the situation in Syria was changing by the minute. Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, whose country is Assad's chief international backer, said he feels “sorry for the Syrian people.” In Damascus, people rushed to stock up on supplies. Thousands went to Syria's border with Lebanon, trying to leave the country. Many shops in the capital were shuttered, a resident told The Associated Press, and those still open ran out of staples such as sugar. Some were selling items at three times the normal price. “The situation is very strange. We are not used to that,” the resident said, insisting on anonymity, fearing retributions. “People are worried whether there will be a battle (in Damascus) or not.” It was the first time that opposition forces reached the outskirts of Damascus since 2018, when Syrian troops recaptured the area following a yearslong siege. The U.N. said it was moving noncritical staff outside the country as a precaution. Syria’s state media denied social media rumors that Assad left the country, saying he is performing his duties in Damascus. He has had little, if any, help from his allies. Russia, is busy with its war in Ukraine . Lebanon’s Hezbollah, which at one point sent thousands of fighters to shore up Assad's forces, has been weakened by a yearlong conflict with Israel. Iran has seen its proxies across the region degraded by regular Israeli airstrikes. U.S. President-elect Donald Trump on Saturday posted on social media that that the United States should avoid engaging militarily in Syria. Pedersen said a date for talks in Geneva on the implementation a U.N. resolution, adopted in 2015, and calling for a Syrian-led political process, would be announced later. The resolution calls for the establishment of a transitional governing body, followed by the drafting of a new constitution and ending with U.N.-supervised elections. Later Saturday, foreign ministers and senior diplomats from eight key countries, including Saudi Arabia, Russia, Egypt, Turkey and Iran, along with Pederson, gathered on the sidelines of the Doha Summit to discuss the situation in Syria. In a statement issued late Saturday, the participants affirmed their support for a political solution to the Syrian crisis “that would lead to the end of military activity and protect civilians.” They also agreed on the importance of strengthening international efforts to increase aid to the Syrian people. Rami Abdurrahman, who heads the Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, an opposition war monitor, said insurgents were in the Damascus suburbs of Maadamiyah, Jaramana and Daraya. Opposition fighters were marching toward the Damascus suburb of Harasta, he added. A commander with the insurgents, Hassan Abdul-Ghani, posted on the Telegram messaging app that opposition forces had begun the “final stage” of their offensive by encircling Damascus. HTS controls much of northwest Syria and in 2017 set up a “salvation government” to run day-to-day affairs in the region. In recent years, HTS leader Abu Mohammed al-Golani has sought to remake the group’s image, cutting ties with al-Qaida, ditching hard-line officials and vowing to embrace pluralism and religious tolerance. The shock offensive began Nov. 27, during which gunmen captured the northern city of Aleppo, Syria’s largest, and the central city of Hama , the country’s fourth largest city. Opposition activists said Saturday that a day earlier, insurgents entered Palmyra, which is home to invaluable archaeological sites had been in government hands since being taken from the Islamic State group in 2017. To the south, Syrian troops left much of the province of Quneitra including the main Baath City, activists said. Syrian Observatory said government troops have withdrawn from much of the two southern provinces. The Syrian army said in a statement that it carried out redeployment and repositioning in Sweida and Daraa after its checkpoints came under attack by “terrorists." The army said it was setting up a “strong and coherent defensive and security belt in the area,” apparently to defend Damascus from the south. The Syrian government has referred to opposition gunmen as terrorists since conflict broke out in March 2011. The foreign ministers of Iran, Russia and Turkey, meeting in Qatar, called for an end to the hostilities. Turkey is a main backer of the rebels. Qatar's top diplomat, Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani, criticized Assad for failing to take advantage of the lull in fighting in recent years to address the country’s underlying problems. “Assad didn’t seize this opportunity to start engaging and restoring his relationship with his people,” he said. Sheikh Mohammed said he was surprised by how quickly the rebels have advanced and said there is a real threat to Syria’s “territorial integrity.” He said the war could “damage and destroy what is left if there is no sense of urgency” to start a political process. Karam reported from London. Associated Press writers Albert Aji in Damascus, Syria; Qassim Abdul-Zahra in Baghdad; and Josef Federman and Victoria Eastwood in Doha, Qatar, contributed to this report.
