TORONTO (AP) — Hannah Miller scored a power-play goal with 1:38 remaining in the game, lifting the Toronto Sceptres to a 3-1 victory over the Boston Fleet in the Professional Women’s Hockey League season opener on Saturday. With Boston standout Hilary Knight in the penalty box for a vicious boarding penalty on Sceptres defender Renata Fast, Miller made good on her rebound attempt on a shot by Daryl Watts with a half-open net. Fast recovered for an assist on the winner before 8,089 fans at Coca-Cola Coliseum. The Fleet challenged the goal, but video review deemed Miller’s shot was good. Sarah Nurse got Toronto on the board with a short-handed tally 11:50 into the first period and Emma Maltais added an empty-net strike with 12 seconds left. Boston’s Hilary Knight opened the scoring 3 minutes in, sending a slap shot past Toronto goalie Kristen Campbell, who registered 18 stops on the night. Toronto outshot Boston 41-19. Boston goalie Aerin Frankel, a big reason why her team advanced to the Walter Cup final last spring, had 38 saves. Sceptres: Billie Jean King MVP Natalie Spooner missed the season opener. The PWHL scoring champion underwent left knee surgery in June after getting injured in Game 3 of Toronto’s first-round series against Minnesota. Fleet: Defender Emma Greco played her first game for Boston. She was part of the Walter Cup-winning Minnesota team that defeated Boston in a three-game series last spring. With the game tied 1-1, the Sceptres failed to score during a 59-second 5-on-3 advantage midway through the second period. Boston blocked five shots during the span. Last year, Toronto enjoyed an 11-game win streak en route to its regular-season championship, including three wins against Boston. Boston will play its home opener on Wednesday, a rematch with the Walter Cup-champion Minnesota. Toronto visits Ottawa on Tuesday. AP women’s hockey: https://apnews.com/hub/womens-hockey
Polish PM Says Fortifications On Russian, Belarusian Borders Are 'Investment In Peace'Palantir CEO Alex Karp joked the software giant was like a "cult" — minus the sex and drugs. He says Palantirians tend to be "snobby" about their intellect and aren't easily persuaded by orders. "My success has been getting Palantirians to believe that my ideas are theirs," Karp says. Palantir CEO Alex Karp acknowledged that working at the company can feel a bit like a "cult. Employees share a like-minded drive that can occasionally raise eyebrows from those outside, he said. Advertisement "It's a rare cult with no sex and very little drugs — and we're not poisoning anyone," he joked during an interview with investor Stanley Druckenmiller. Karp spoke about his coming book, " The Technological Republic ." Cofounder Peter Thiel is an "artist" when it comes to appointing leaders, Karp said, and attracting top engineering talent has always been the company's strong suit. Related Video Accenture CMO Jill Kramer talks about how generative AI will enhance, not diminish, the power of marketing: video The founding team started by calling their smartest friends, and the talent pool quickly compounded. Early employees tended to be "very high-mission, very high rigor, very low pay, very high-equity — we lived together," Karp said. "It just was a really cool vibe, and there was nothing like it." The company was "hated" by the outside venture capital world, Karp said — but it was a welcome dynamic that reminded him of his childhood. Karp's parents were unusual, but it was a happy home. (He's previously described them as hippies who took him to protests .) And if outsiders considered his parents "freaks," Karp said, that just made them "even happier." Today, Palantirians are "snobby" when it comes to intellect — though not about where they went to school, Karp said. They're also "not convinced by orders." The culture is one of low authority that prizes self-starters. Advertisement "My success has been getting Palantirians to believe that my ideas are theirs," Karp said, adding that lateral hiring can be difficult at the company, where respect is hard-earned. It's also a relatively small team of 3,600 employees, and Karp doesn't harbor ambitions of massively scaling the head count — thanks in no small part to AI, which has meant "you can power whole industries with 100 people," he said. Palantir did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Business Insider. Advertisement Palantir has had an explosive year, with its stock up around 350% so far this year. In a recent earnings call, Karp attributed the company's growth to an AI revolution and said its success had silenced longtime critics.The Billionaire Shifts: Where Wealth Meets Strategy

Bhopal: Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Mohan Yadav returned to India after completing his six-day UK and Germany tour on Saturday. A group of BJP leaders received him at IGI Airport in New Delhi. "Today, on returning from a foreign trip, I was given a warm welcome by party workers and colleagues at the Madhya Pradesh Bhawan in Delhi," CM Yadav said in a post on X. After reaching Bhopal, he will address the press and share his experience about his first foreign visit as Chief Minister. Upon returning to New Delhi on Friday, Yadav said his government is committed to taking Madhya Pradesh to new heights by utilising maximum support from Prime Minister Narendra Modi. "Our aim is to work effectively and empower women, farmers, poor and youth in all these areas by giving priority to them so that the state can develop holistically. With this resolution, our foreign trip concluded with positivity," he added. Addressing the press on the last day of his industrial sponsorship-related trip in Munich, Germany on Friday, MP CM stated that his visits to the UK (United Kingdom) and Germany were not only fruitful but also offered him opportunities to understand and learn. "The aim of the visit was to create employment opportunities for the state's youth, promote industrialisation, and establish Madhya Pradesh as a strong economic power both within the country and globally," he had stated.

He stated that his government will leave no stone unturned in taking steps to implement the technological advancements and innovations occurring in industries in the UK and Germany.

NEW YORK (AP) — In a string of visits, dinners, calls, monetary pledges and social media overtures, big tech chiefs — including Apple’s Tim Cook, OpenAI’s Sam Altman, Meta’s Mark Zuckerberg and Amazon’s Jeff Bezos — have joined a parade of business and world leaders in trying to improve their standing with President-elect Donald Trump before he takes office in January. “The first term, everybody was fighting me,” Trump said in remarks at Mar-a-Lago . “In this term, everybody wants to be my friend.” Tech companies and leaders have now poured millions into his inauguration fund, a sharp increase — in most cases — from past pledges to incoming presidents. But what does the tech industry expect to gain out of their renewed relationships with Trump? A clue to what the industry is looking for came just days before the election when Microsoft executives — who’ve largely tried to show a neutral or bipartisan stance — joined with a close Trump ally, venture capitalist Marc Andreessen, to publish a blog post outlining their approach to artificial intelligence policy. “Regulation should be implemented only if its benefits outweigh its costs,” said the document signed by Andreessen, his business partner Ben Horowitz, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella and the company’s president, Brad Smith. They also urged the government to back off on any attempt to strengthen copyright laws that would make it harder for companies to use publicly available data to train their AI systems. And they said, “the government should examine its procurement practices to enable more startups to sell technology to the government.” Trump has pledged to rescind President Joe Biden’s sweeping AI executive order, which sought to protect people’s rights and safety without stifling innovation. He hasn’t specified what he would do in its place, but his campaign said AI development should be “rooted in Free Speech and Human Flourishing.” Trump’s choice to head the Interior Department, North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum, has spoken openly about the need to boost electricity production to meet increased demand from data centers and artificial intelligence. “The AI battle affects everything from defense to healthcare to education to productivity as a country,′′ Burgum said on Nov. 15, referring to artificial intelligence. “And the AI that’s coming in the next 18 months is going to be revolutionary. So there’s just a sense of urgency and a sense of understanding in the Trump administration′′ to address it. Demand for data centers ballooned in recent years due to the rapid growth of cloud computing and artificial intelligence, and local governments are competing for lucrative deals with big tech companies. But as data centers begin to consume more resources, some residents are pushing back against the world’s most powerful corporations over concerns about the economic, social and environmental health of their communities. “Maybe Big Tech should buy a copy of ‘The Art of The Deal’ to figure out how to best negotiate with this administration,” suggested Paul Swanson, an antitrust attorney for the law firm Holland & Hart. “I won’t be surprised if they find ways to reach some accommodations and we end up seeing more negotiated resolutions and consent decrees.” Although federal regulators began cracking down on Google and Facebook during Trump’s first term as president — and flourished under Biden — most experts expect his second administration to ease up on antitrust enforcement and be more receptive to business mergers. Google may benefit from Trump’s return after he made comments on the campaign trail suggesting a breakup of the company isn’t in the U.S. national interest, after a judge declared its search engine an illegal monopoly . But recent nominations put forward by his transition team have favored those who have been critical of Big Tech companies, suggesting Google won’t be entirely off the hook. Cook’s notoriously rocky relationship with the EU can be traced back to a 2016 ruling from Brussels in a tax case targeting Apple. Cook slammed the bloc’s order for Apple to pay back up to $13.7 billion in Irish back taxes as “total political crap.” Trump, then in his first term as president, piled on, referring to the European Commissioner Margrethe Vestager, who was spearheading a campaign on special tax deals and a crackdown on Big Tech companies, as the “tax lady” who “really hates the U.S.” Brussels was eventually vindicated after the bloc’s top court rejected Apple’s appeal this year, though it didn’t stop Cook from calling Trump to complain, Trump recounted in a podcast in October. Trump hosted Cook for a Friday evening dinner at the president-elect’s Mar-a-Lago resort, according to a person familiar with the matter who was not authorized to comment publicly. Neither Apple nor the Trump transition team has commented on the nature of their discussions. Altman , Amazon and Meta all pledged to donate $1 million each to Trump’s inaugural fund. During his first term, Trump criticized Amazon and railed against the political coverage at The Washington Post, which billionaire Bezos owns. Meanwhile, Bezos had criticized some of Trump’s past rhetoric. In 2019, Amazon also argued in a court case that Trump’s bias against the company harmed its chances of winning a $10 billion Pentagon contract. More recently, Bezos has struck a more conciliatory tone. He recently said at The New York Times’ DealBook Summit in New York that he was “optimistic” about Trump’s second term, while also endorsing president-elect’s plans to cut regulations. The donation from Meta came just weeks after Zuckerberg met with Trump privately at Mar-a-Lago. During the 2024 campaign, Zuckerberg did not endorse a candidate for president, but voiced a more positive stance toward Trump. Earlier this year, he praised Trump’s response to his first assassination attempt. Still, Trump in recent months had continued to attack Zuckerberg publicly. And Altman, who is in a legal dispute with AI rival Elon Musk, has said he is “not that worried” about the Tesla CEO’s influence in the incoming administration. Musk, an early OpenAI investor and board member, sued the artificial intelligence company earlier this year alleging that the maker of ChatGPT betrayed its founding aims of benefiting the public good rather than pursuing profits.Nanta (fifth left) inspecting the NoFloods flood mitigation product in jerteh today. – Bernama photo JERTIH (Nov 30): The pilot project of the Flood Mitigation Technology or NoFloods product, which is currently at the proof of concept (POC) stage, is seen to be effective in addressing the flood problem and minimising the impact of road cuts due to the disaster. Works Minister Datuk Seri Alexander Nanta Linggi said the 300-metre (m) long product at Section 6.30, Federal Road FT189, here is the result of the collaboration between the Ministry of Works (MOW) and the concessionaire which will be installed from Oct 1 until March 31, 2025. “Today, I roughly saw how this product, which uses Internet of Things (IOT) technology, is effective as a barrier to help prevent water from flowing into the street. In any case, we still have to wait for the full report. “It uses technology where water enters a large pipe which can be a barrier to the flow of floods. And with the IOT, it is smart because it can provide information in real time through the application,” he told reporters after inspecting the product, here today. Commenting on the effectiveness of the Danish product throughout the installation at the site, Nanta said NoFloods is capable of accommodating up to 1.2m of flood water level and the recorded water level is 0.9m above ground level. “It is installed in selected locations where it is felt that this product is needed. It’s like a Bailey bridge, installed only temporarily and not permanently,” he said. In another development, he said his department had decided to carry out maintenance work on road infrastructure damaged by floods in Terengganu next year through his survey of several locations today. “The three locations that are the priority for road maintenance work are Jalan Kuala Terengganu – Kuantan (FT003) in Sections 463-465, Jalan Bukit Besi – Dungun (FT132) in Sections 8-10 and Jalan Jerangau – Jabor (FT14) in Sections 117-118. “For the year 2025, KKR has identified and applied 228 pavement mitigation work worth RM301.77 million and 197 pavement mitigation work in phases worth RM46.9 million for Federal Roads in Terengganu,” he said. – Bernama
Technology has shown several advancements worldwide, leading many industries into swift evolution with their operations. Businesses and business owners must realize their full potential through sustainable solutions. In claims management, insurance, and law, outdated processes hog the spotlight, slowing overall performance. The Records Company , a nationwide record retrieval company, could answer these commonplace predicaments. Boasting more than 20 years of resilient leadership and entrepreneurial experience, it should come as no surprise that Grady Marin would soon create his business, The Records Company . While Marin's advanced educational endeavors at Harvard Business School and the University of Oxford allowed him to fine-tune his methods, life's hurdles authentically outlined his authority and influence. Marin began his business proposition while working in various law firms. The soon-to-be legal services expert recognized that chasing records was a time-consuming task that often required substantial amounts of physical and emotional energy. To Marin, receiving payments to send requests seemed counterproductive, especially when higher-quality work could be done with those resources instead. "It was frustrating to see talented staff buried in busywork," he explained. Subsequently, the legal specialist would build The Records Company to resolve these ceaseless concerns. The Records Company's Unique Approach to Record Retrieval Marin first launched The Records Company in 2012, aiming to blend novel technologies with tailored services focusing on client success and efficiency. Deeply influenced by small-community lifestyle values like resourcefulness and trust, Marin's business provides genuine worth and continuity within its legal record retrieval services. The Records Company also offers a comprehensive suite of services beyond standard record retrieval, including auditing services to verify compliance and accuracy for requesters. It offers detailed financial tools, including reports that track every charge—categorized by client, case, amount, and date. Clients of The Records Company also benefit from performance-tracking systems that monitor employee productivity, turnaround times, and issues related to requests to help streamline internal cost management, improve employee reviews, and make better budgeting decisions. The business runs 24/7 with fast turnaround times and a cash-back rewards program for clients. Marin notes, "It's about freeing up business owners to focus on the things that matter," including achieving their goals, developing their operations, and solving significant challenges. The Records Company also prides itself on never outsourcing. Its custom-tailored services are supported by a team of professionals, including MBAs, attorneys, physicians, and nurses, who bring a wealth of expertise to each project. While other companies might focus on piecemeal costs, Marin has engineered The Records Company for high-volume efficiency. The Records Company may not be the only legal services organization on the market, but it still stands out among its competitors. Upholding its dedication to efficiency, the company prioritizes client empowerment, innovation, and transparency throughout its partnerships. Unlike other legal firms, which outsource their record retrieval services while encouraging a transactional mindset, The Records Company offers financial incentives that supplement clients with real value. Having witnessed the market's inefficiencies firsthand, Marin designed The Records Company to do more than "sell a service." The business extends a collaborative opportunity for clients to focus on their central operations. Marin believes that with his initiative, clients can receive personalized service that will ultimately redefine the standard within the law industry. From Tribulations to Triumph Of course, triumph is often accompanied by challenges. Marin's greatest obstacle while developing The Records Company occurred when he encountered public misconceptions frequently placed on legal firms. The common belief that firms can efficiently handle insurance claims record retrieval to save businesses money temporarily gave Marin's company some vigorous competition. Hurdles such as cultural differences, language barriers, and time zone disparities habitually lead to delays, diminished service quality, and miscommunication. Despite these tribulations, Marin proved that his approach with The Records Company could serve as a stalwart solution for growing enterprises in the long term. Altering business owners' obsolete mindsets has led to numerous accolades and accomplishments. In 2024, Marin was named the "Most Passionate Leader to Look For" by Insights Success Magazine . His leadership perspective and inventive solutions also earned him features in Fast Company , Forbes , and Tech Times . Throughout his various experiences, Marin has realized that adaptability, continuous improvement, and persistence are crucial to garnering meaningful impact and lifeline success. Grady Marin's Future Vision for The Records Company As Marin looks ahead, he hopes to step into public service with the lessons he's learned from his failures and successes. He envisions The Records Company as a game-changer in litigation support services, continuing to build its reputation and expand its prominence worldwide. At its core, Grady Marin's contributions are dedicated to accountability and integrity. Finally, the lawful leader shares a powerful takeaway from his journey over the last two decades. "My word means everything to me, and I believe progress comes from being connected to the work, not just delegating tasks. Whether I'm leading a business, mentoring others, or preparing to enter public service, my focus is on aligning action with purpose to create sustainable, meaningful change."Ketu: Itula okwa ningile ndje omatilitho kutya ota blocka ongodhi yandje

The publication highlights that TRVs have the potential to revolutionize skincare by enabling the delivery of large, bioactive molecules directly into the epidermis and dermis. The Ourself delivery method promises to reshape the way we care for our skin and opens new possibilities for enhancing cosmetic outcomes topically. "Publication of this data reinforces that Ourself is setting a new standard in topical delivery," said Jim Hartman , Ourself's Chief Executive Officer. "We are excited to lead these advancements and look forward to the growth and innovation this breakthrough will inspire for our brand and the industry as a whole." "Tiered-Release Vesicles represent a revolutionary advancement in dermal delivery technology, addressing a stagnation in the industry that has persisted for over four decades," said Ashish C. Bhatia , MD, FAAD, author and board-certified dermatologist and Mohs surgeon at Oak Dermatology. For decades, the skin's outermost layer, the stratum corneum, has long been a barrier that limits the effectiveness of skincare products, blocking essential ingredients from reaching deeper layers. Traditional delivery systems like liposomes have failed to penetrate deeply enough to achieve substantial results—TRVs change this paradigm. "It's not just about the ingredients but also how the ingredients get to where they need to go. Ourself is revolutionary and a game changer in our industry because we've had the same delivery systems for 40 years. Now we have something better," said Amy B. Lewis , MD, board-certified dermatologist at Lewis Dermatology and Associates. "The Tiered-Release Vesicle delivery system is a major step forward for skincare. These developments redefine what is now achievable in topical delivery, unlocking limitless potential for the future of skincare," said Amir Moradi , MD, MBA lead author and double board-certified facial plastic and otolaryngology-head and neck surgeon at Moradi MD. ABOUT OURSELF Leveraging decades of biotech and skincare expertise, Ourself developed a new, scientifically advanced delivery technology to broaden the capabilities of cosmetic skincare forever.
