AP Business SummaryBrief at 2:00 p.m. ESTBarcelona manager Hansi Flick praised his players as they bounced back from consecutive LaLiga disappointments with what he described as a great performance to thump French side Brest 3-0 in their Champions League clash on Tuesday. Flick said on Monday that his side's recent form was a major worry after they failed to win for a second successive LaLiga game, but the German coach was delighted with how his players responded. "Very happy. We deserved it, winning by three goals but we could have scored more," Flick told Movistar Plus. "But I'm happy either way because delivering a performance like this after (a 2-2 draw at Celta) Vigo (on Saturday) is just great." Flick praised Barca striker Robert Lewandowski who scored twice to join Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi as the only players to reach 100 goals in the competition, but said that he preferred his team's collective effort on Tuesday. "Lewandowski is great, I'm delighted with his goals. I think Lewandowski knows he has to score and he is in the position to do it, but the important thing is what the team generates," Flick said. "Obviously, he knows he has to score and he plays for it, but what this team does is just wonderful." Tuesday's victory lifted Barca to second in the 36-team Champions League table on 12 points from five games, one point behind Inter Milan and level with third-placed Liverpool, who host Real Madrid on Wednesday. Flick's team are on top in the LaLiga standings with 34 points, four ahead of rivals Real Madrid in second, who have a game in hand.Florida State continues torrid star with rout of UMass
OTTAWA - Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said dealing with incoming president Donald Trump and his thundering on trade will be “a little more challenging” than the last time he was in the White House. Speaking at an event put on by the Halifax Chamber of Commerce, Trudeau said that’s because Trump’s team is coming in with a much clearer set of ideas of what they want to do right away than after his first election win in 2016. Even still, Trudeau said the answer is not to panic and said Canada can rally together to address the tough scenario the nation will face following Trump’s inauguration in January. Trump has threatened 25 per cent tariffs against Canada and Mexico, if the two nations do not beef up their borders to his satisfaction. On the weekend, Trump appeared in an interview with NBC’s “Meet the Press,” where the president-elect said he can’t guarantee the tariffs won’t raise prices for U.S. consumers but that eventually tariffs will “make us rich.” “All I want to do is I want to have a level, fast, but fair playing field,” he said. Trudeau warned that steep tariffs could be “devastating for the Canadian economy” and cause “just horrific losses in all of our communities,” and that Trump’s approach is to introduce “a bit of chaos” to destabilize his negotiating partners. But he also said that Canada exports a range of goods to the U.S., from steel and aluminum to crude oil and agricultural commodities, all of which would get more expensive and mean real hardship for Americans at the same time. “For years, Americans have been paying more for their homes than they should because of unjust tariffs on softwood lumber. Maybe this level of tariffs will actually have them realize that this is something they are doing to themselves,” Trudeau said. “Trump got elected on a commitment to make life better and more affordable for Americans, and I think people south of the border are beginning to wake up to the real reality that tariffs on everything from Canada would make life a lot more expensive.” Experts, including Canada’s former top trade negotiator Steve Verheul, have warned the country needs to be ready to respond if Trump goes through with his tariff threats. The prime minister said his government is still mulling over “the right ways” to respond, referencing Canada’s calculated approach when Trump hit Canada with steel and aluminum tariffs. “It was the fact that we put tariffs on bourbon and Harley-Davidsons and playing cards and Heinz ketchup and cherries and a number of other things that were very carefully targeted because they were politically impactful to the president’s party and colleagues,” he said. That’s how Canada was able to “punch back in a way that was actually felt by Americans,” he added. Trudeau also said the country needs to rally together and work past its political differences. He offered up some rare words of praise for Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe — a frequent political thorn in his side and “no big fan of mine” — as one of Canada’s strongest voices during that tumultuous time period when NAFTA was under threat. “His voice with governors down south, his making the case for Canadian workers and Canadian trade in a way that complemented the arguments that we were making, did a better job of showing what Canadian unity was and (what) Canada’s negotiating position could be to a United States that has a political system that is incredibly fractured and fractious,” Trudeau said. On Sunday, Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre said “every single Conservative would tell every single American” that tariffs on Canada would be a bad idea — and also took time to bill Trudeau as a weak leader. One member of his caucus, Conservative MP Jamil Jivani, said he had dinner with incoming vice-president JD Vance and British Conservative Leader Kemi Badenoch over the weekend in Arlington, Va. He said it’s crucial right now to be building “strong relationships with our allies.” This report by The Canadian Press was first published Dec. 9, 2024. — With files from The Associated Press, Kelly Geraldine Malone and Rosa Saba in TorontoB.C. leaders pitch Hollywood executives in bid to keep province on screenTerrifying moment massive explosion rocks busy street in tourist hotspot as pedestrians are caught in huge fireball
morning of December 8, Suhail AlGhazi did the unthinkable: He spoke with his family in Syria openly, and without fear. AlGhazi fled Syria in 2013 after taking part in early protests against the regime of Bashar al-Assad and surviving two brutal and terrifying stints in prison. Now living in Europe, he has spent the past decade working in support of the opposition, publishing commentary and maintaining a lively and at times belligerent presence on X, formerly Twitter. Despite the relative safety of exile, he kept his identity hidden. Many members of his extended family still lived in and around Damascus, and he feared that his activism — or even speaking with them about anything resembling politics — would make them a target. The Assad family controlled Syria for 53 years through a , instilling terror at home and at times reaching out beyond the borders of Syria to silence critics abroad. In recent years, the regime’s secret police were and lured a prominent exile back to Syria with false promises of reconciliation, only to throw him in prison upon his arrival. (His emaciated body was this week.) Families of dissidents or rebel fighters to denounce their loved ones or face imprisonment. So for many activists, both home and abroad, anonymity was a necessity, said Suhaib Zaino, a co-founder of the online magazine . “The Assad regime doesn’t just go after people inside the country,” Zaino told The Intercept, speaking under his full name for the first time. “They can also hurt people outside the country by hurting their relatives inside Syria.” Most Read AlGhazi, wishing to protect his loved ones, had never once discussed politics with his family on the inside. Even in the days and hours leading up to the regime’s collapse, as rebel forces closed in on the capital, the fear was so pervasive and habitual that he and his relatives continued to censor themselves, speaking in generalities in conversations over WhatsApp. After tweeting anonymously from the handle @putintintin1 for years, he began in 2020 to use a shortened version of his real name, which he felt was common enough to not be connected with his family. He never revealed his likeness online. But when Assad fled to Moscow on Sunday morning, AlGhazi and his relatives shook off a lifetime of self-censorship, speaking openly about the remarkable events taking place. “We talked about how Assad is gone, how happy we are to talk freely and to know that his security services can no longer threaten us, how miserable he and his father made Syria for a long time,” AlGhazi told The Intercept. Basking in his family’s newfound freedom, AlGhazi decided to step out of the shadows online. On X, the independent activist posted a photo of himself seated at a cafe, smiling and bathed in sunlight. “After being detained and tortured by the Syrian regime, and 10 years of forced exile, Assad has fallen and Syria is finally free,” “New Chapter. #NewProfilePic.” A Collective Unmasking The joy millions of Syrians felt was soon tempered by the images that began to emerge from newly emptied prisons where the regime had and executed untold thousands of people. As rescue crews and rebels worked their way through the notorious Sednaya torture and execution facility, located on the outskirts of Damascus, they uncovered underground cells, piles of corpses, and other grisly evidence that broadly confirmed many of the details of a 2017 describing the prison as a “human slaughterhouse.” There exists grave uncertainty about the stability of the country, and both Israel and Turkey have exploited the chaos by in Syria, while the U.S. has on what it says are ISIS militants still operating in isolated desert areas. But after 13 years of war and half a century of dynastic autocracy that forced Syrians to censor themselves even with their family, the fall of the regime unleashed a jubilant, collective unmasking in cities across Syria on Sunday. Crowds poured into the street to celebrate, tear down statues of the old regime, and unveil their true feelings, often for the first time in their lives. With Assad gone, many of the activists who had labored under pseudonyms for years began to come out to the world — and to their families back home. “My country is free, there is no need to hide anymore,” , a 31-year-old doctor living in Paris, who had tweeted under the name OSilent4 since 2012. Born to Syrian exiles in France, Oussama still prefers to use only his first name, and told The Intercept in an interview that, like most Syrians, he is not naive about the challenges to come. “Of course I am anxious, because I don’t trust any of the different political forces right now,” Oussama. “But the fate of Syria is now in Syrian hands, and that’s why I’m hopeful.” Related On Tuesday evening, speaking to relatives in the city of Homs for the first time since the fall of Assad, all he could feel was joy as his aunt described the scenes of jubilation she had witnessed over the past few days. She said she could still hear people in the street shouting long-forbidden slogans against the regime. “She was very emotional,” he said. “I haven’t seen them smiling like that in years.” “We in the West, we only saw it on TV and in books,” he said of the war, “but they lived every day the bombs and the protests, everything, but they couldn’t speak openly.” “Now,” he continued, “everything has changed.” “I Had No Idea” Syria has for years been divided into a number of areas of control and foreign influence: Northern Syria is largely controlled by a patchwork of Turkish-backed rebel factions calling itself the Syrian National Army, or SNA, while the northeast is controlled by the Syrian Democratic Forces, a Kurdish-led coalition with U.S. backing. As of this week, the majority of Syria is now nominally controlled by the transitional government in Damascus, an uneasy rebel coalition led by Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham, an Islamist faction that until 2016 fought under the banner of Al Qaeda and has been accused of in the parts of northwest Syria it controlled. Despite an amnesty for army conscripts and from the group’s leader, Abu Mohammed al-Jolani, people across the country — and particularly within minority communities — are fearful of the potential for reprisals and sectarian rule by Islamists. “If HTS truly believes in handing out amnesties, then they should be forgiving the people that are in their prisons right now,” said Karim Aljian, a London-based psychiatrist and opposition activist born in Aleppo. “If they can forgive the conscripts of a regime that’s committed atrocities beyond description, they can show a little bit of mercy to the people that they’ve arrested.” Despite his wariness of the group, the 27-year-old Aljian, who is affiliated with the Syrian Emergency Task Force, a U.S.-based nonprofit that works closely with elements of the U.S. government, was overjoyed at the fall of the regime. The reactions of his family inside Syria, with whom he’d never dreamed of discussing politics, brought a separate wave of euphoria. On Sunday, his cousins began posting videos of themselves waving flags and shouting slogans in celebration. Another cousin shared a photo of himself holding a picture of a relative who had been a rebel fighter and had been killed early in the war. Aljian was overwhelmed by the sudden revelation of fervent ideals from his cousins about whose opinions he had known so little. “It just blows my mind how, the whole time, these people who mask it so well always hated the regime,” he said. “I had no idea that so many people who maintain this sense of neutrality or apologia to the Assad regime despised them.”
(Bloomberg) — Illinois Governor JB Pritzker has scored another win as International Business Machines Corp. is investing in the state’s new quantum and microelectronics park in Chicago. IBM and partners including the University of Chicago and the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign will build the first ever national algorithm center for quantum computing in the city’s South Side, the company said in a statement on Thursday. The state will provide a $25 million grant that will help purchase equipment for the IBM project. The announcement comes five months after PsiQuantum Corp. said it would invest more than $1 billion to become the anchor tenant at Pritzker’s quantum campus. The billionaire governor, who has been trying to turn Illinois into a hub for new technologies, set aside $500 million for quantum as part of the budget passed earlier this year. “This is first of its kind for us,” Jay Gambetta, IBM vice president of quantum, said in an interview. “What made us choose Chicago is honestly the talent in computer scientists — you have so many computer scientists that graduate from the schools here, as well as applied mathematicians and physicists. And then you’ve also got many industries that are potential early adopters of quantum computing.” Quantum computers — which rely on “qubits” and can store data in multiple forms: ones, zeros, both, or something in between — are exponentially more powerful than their binary counterparts. Companies including IBM are trying to crack the technology, but skeptics have cast doubt over whether it will ever replace classical computers. The initial investment will be “in the tens of millions” and maybe reach the “low hundreds” in the next two years, IBM Chief Executive Officer Arvind Krishna said at a press conference. He declined to provide a precise figure. IBM’s investment, fueled by the IBM Quantum System Two quantum computer, is aimed at creating the software and algorithms that will allow quantum computing to generate effective commercial applications, Gambetta said. Industries typical of the Midwest including fertilizers, finance, insurance and materials could benefit from the quantum project. “As we go into this next phase of quantum computing where algorithm are just as important as the hardware, we are making the decision that that we will grow out algorithm footprint in Chicago,” Gambetta said. “The software is where most of the jobs end up, so as we go into the future, this is going to be our core footprint, that’s where we’re going to have our algorithm researchers.” IBM said it plan to start hiring effort almost immediately, and will have staff at other Chicago locations until the park is complete. The project is slated to create 50 jobs in five years. In July, PsiQuantum Corp., a Palo Alto, California-based company, said it will build the first utility-scale, fault-tolerant quantum computer in the US at the 300,000 square-foot site at South Works, the old US Steel plant that closed in 1992. Construction of the park moved a step closer when City Council voted this week to approve the rezoning of the area, the Chicago Sun-Times reported. Chicago also has one of the country’s longest quantum networks, which runs 124 miles (200 kilometers) and connects the US Department of Energy’s Argonne National Laboratory to the University of Chicago and the Chicago Quantum Exchange. “We’re making Illinois the global quantum capital and the center for job growth in the quantum industry – a true center of innovation with the power to solve the world’s most pressing and complex challenges and create jobs and investment for our state,” Pritzker said in the statement. —With assistance from Shruti Date Singh.

The expanded Big Ten is poised to be a major player in this season's College Football Playoff. The 18-team conference had three of the top-four teams in the AP poll this week — No. 1 Oregon, No. 2 Ohio State and No. 4 Penn State. A one-loss Indiana team is ranked 10th but is still very much a contender to make the playoff, given how many Southeastern Conference teams have three defeats or more. Indiana's rise has been perhaps the Big Ten's biggest story this season. Much of the spotlight was on newcomers Oregon, Southern California, UCLA and Washington, but aside from the top-ranked Ducks, that foursome has struggled to impress. Meanwhile, the Hoosiers won their first 10 games under new coach Curt Cignetti before losing at Ohio State last weekend. Oregon beat Ohio State 32-31 back in October, and if the Buckeyes beat rival Michigan this weekend, they'll earn a rematch with the Ducks for the Big Ten title. People are also reading... And it's entirely possible another matchup between those two teams awaits in the CFP. Star power Dillon Gabriel has quarterbacked Oregon to an unbeaten record, throwing for 3,066 yards and 22 touchdowns in 11 games. But don't overlook Iowa's Kaleb Johnson and his 21 rushing TDs, and quarterback Kurtis Rourke has been a big part of Indiana's improvement. Penn State's Abdul Carter has eight sacks and two forced fumbles and could be one of the top edge rushers drafted this year. Going bowling Oregon (11-0, 8-0), Ohio State (10-1, 7-1), Penn State (10-1, 7-1), Indiana (10-1, 7-1), Illinois (8-3, 5-3), Iowa (7-4, 5-3), Michigan (6-5, 4-4), Minnesota (6-5, 4-4), Washington (6-5, 4-4), Southern California (6-5, 4-5), Nebraska (6-5, 3-5) and Rutgers (6-5, 3-5) have already reached the six-win mark for bowl eligibility. Michigan State (5-6, 3-5) and Wisconsin (5-6, 3-5) can join them. Hot seats There may not be many firings in general at the top level of college football. The prospect of sharing revenue with athletes in the future might lead schools to be more judicious about shedding one coach and hiring a new one. Who should be most worried in the Big Ten? Well, Lincoln Riley is struggling to stay above .500 in his third season at USC. Purdue is 1-10, but coach Ryan Walters is only in his second season. Maryland's Mike Locksley has been there six years and his Terrapins are 4-7, but this was his first real step backward after guiding the team to three straight bowl wins. Cignetti has shown it is possible for a coaching change to push a previously moribund program to some impressive heights in a short amount of time — but the improvement has been more incremental at Michigan State following Jonathan Smith's arrival. Sherrone Moore wasn't a completely unknown commodity at Michigan after he won some massive games in place of a suspended Jim Harbaugh last year. But in his first season completely at the helm, the Wolverines have declined significantly following their national title a season ago. Youth movement The Big Ten is home to one of the most dynamic freshmen in the country in Ohio State receiver Jeremiah Smith. He has 52 catches for 899 yards and nine touchdowns. Highly touted quarterback Dylan Raiola has teamed up with fellow freshman Jacory Barney (49 catches) to lead Nebraska to bowl eligibility. Recruiting watch Ohio State is on track to land the Big Ten's top class, according to 247 Sports, but the big news recently was quarterback Bryce Underwood flipping from LSU to Michigan. If the Wolverines do in fact keep Underwood in his home state, that would be a big development for Moore. Be the first to knowAn angry Rudy Giuliani lashed out in court Tuesday at the judge presiding over the collection proceeding for the $146 million defamation judgment against him — and complained he's having a hard time making ends meet. Speaking after U.S. District Judge Lewis Liman said the former personal lawyer to Donald Trump had not been complying with court orders to surrender his assets, Giuliani snapped: “The implications you are making against me are wrong. I have no car, no credit card, no cash, everything I have is tied up. They have put stop orders on my business accounts, and I can’t pay my bills.” Philadelphia news 24/7: Watch NBC10 free wherever you are The judge said Giuliani did not appear to be indigent and warned him against any further outbursts. The hearing in federal court in New York was held in part in response to allegations from attorneys for Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss , the former Georgia election workers Giuliani defamed while challenging the 2020 election results in the state. The lawyers for Freeman and Moss have said that Giuliani, a former federal prosecutor, has not complied with court orders to turn over his assets to the pair. Giuliani's new attorney, Joseph Cammarata, said the former New York City mayor had turned over one of the assets — a 1980 Mercedes-Benz SL 500 that used to belong to Hollywood icon Lauren Bacall. Aaron Nathan, an attorney for Freeman and Moss, said Giuliani had surrendered the car, but not the title. The judge said the title must be turned over. “A car without a title is meaningless,” Liman said, questioning why Giuliani hadn't been able to get a new one. Stories that affect your life across the U.S. and around the world. "Your client is a competent person. He was the U.S. attorney in the district. The notion that he can't apply for a title certificate ... " the judge told Cammarata before Giuliani cut him off and started his rant. "I did apply for it!" Giuliani barked, shaking his head. "What am I supposed to do, make it up myself? Your implication that I have not been diligent about it is totally incorrect," he continued, before complaining about his financial woes. Attorneys for the election workers have said they have a similar paperwork issue with Giuliani's co-op apartment in Manhattan. While the receivers have gotten access to the apartment, which is estimated to be worth over $5 million, Giuliani “still has not delivered the keys, stock, or proprietary lease,” they said in a court filing. The filing said he has turned over the majority of his luxury watch collection, but not all of it, as he was ordered to do last month. “Mr. Giuliani has delivered 18 watches and one diamond ring to the address provided by the Receivers,” the filing said, but still has nine more watches he’s supposed hand over. In court, Nathan said his clients want to move forward and collect what is theirs but have had to endure delay after delay with multiple extensions while Giuliani has failed to comply with court orders, refusing to turn over cash from his bank account and sports memorabilia, including a signed Joe DiMaggio jersey. Cammarata said he is appealing the judge's turnover order and asked the judge to extend some deadlines given that he had just signed on to the case after Giuliani's previous attorney withdrew for undisclosed reasons. Liman rejected the request. “You can’t restart the clock by firing one counsel and hiring another. He has already received multiple extensions and missed multiple deadlines,” the judge said, warning that Giuliani could face sanctions and potential incarceration if he doesn't comply with his orders. A trial is scheduled for Jan. 16 on two outstanding issues related to the judgment: whether Giuliani must surrender his Florida home and his four World Series rings, which his son, Andrew, says were given to him as gifts years ago. Giuliani listed the rings as his property in a bankruptcy case this year. Cammarata asked the judge to push the trial back to a later date so Giuliani could attend events related to Trump's inauguration . Giuliani, he said, regularly consults with Trump and "has the political right to be there." The judge refused the request, saying Giuliani's "social calendar" wasn't a reason to delay. After court, Giuliani suggested the trial is unnecessary because Liman is "going to rule against me. If you were sitting in the courtroom and couldn't figure it out, you're stupid." "His background is serious left-wing Democrat," he said, while acknowledging that Trump had nominated the judge to the bench. Still, Giuliani maintained, the judge is "about as left-wing as you get." Freeman and Moss filed suit against Giuliani after he repeatedly falsely accused them of committing election fraud during the 2020 election, claims that led to a torrent of racist death threats that forced them out of their jobs. State officials at the time said the pair had done nothing wrong. Giuliani continued accusing the mother and daughter of fraud — even after a lengthy state investigation cleared them . Last year, a jury awarded them $148 million in damages , which Liman reduced to $146 million. Asked if he regretted defaming Freeman and Moss, Giuliani said: "I do not regret it for a minute. I regret the persecution I have been put through." This story first appeared on NBCNews.com .

-- Shares Facebook Twitter Reddit Email As the weather cools, I find myself returning to the kitchen after months of warm-weather reprieve. This dish came about more by happenstance than planning, but I’m deeply grateful for that serendipity. A few years ago, I wrote about the comforting magic of "soft and pliant" egg noodles, the base for one of my all-time favorite meals: my Nana's cream chicken. I described it as "a steaming bed of freshly boiled egg noodles, the curlicues dancing on the plate, topped with chunks of tender chicken and a blanket of creamy, rich sauce—its color reminiscent of Italian-American vodka sauce, but with flavors rooted in Eastern Europe. Best enjoyed in a large bowl, the sauce suffusing every nook and cranny of the chicken and noodles." For the longest time, that was the only way I ever ate egg noodles. But one day, tired of the usual side dishes like rice, potatoes or vegetables, I decided to try something simple: egg noodles tossed with butter. Related This 5-ingredient cream chicken with rich, tomato gravy is a winter weeknight must-have It was ... sensational. Over the years, I began experimenting — adding fresh or dried herbs, browning the butter, or tossing in a splash of stock or broth. One evening, while making a sautéed chicken dish with a rich cherry tomato and spinach sauce, I noticed a package of mushrooms languishing in the fridge. They were fast approaching the point of no return. I sliced them quickly and cooked them in a half stick of unsalted butter. As I’ve written before, mushrooms are like sponges — porous as heck — and they absorb whatever you "feed" them. That day, I was in a brown butter mood, so I cooked the mushrooms until they were deeply crisped and golden, their flavor intensified by the nutty richness of browned butter . I roughly chopped some parsley, stirred it in, and salted the mixture generously before tossing it with freshly boiled egg noodles and a few extra pats of butter. Want more great food writing and recipes? Subscribe to Salon Food's newsletter , The Bite. Goodness gracious. Let me tell you: I devoured those mushroom egg noodles with far more enthusiasm than the chicken dish they were supposed to accompany. There was an unpretentious joy in the meal. I ate with gusto, going back for seconds of a "side dish" that completely outshone the main course. The combination of butter, mushrooms, noodles, and parsley elevated a humble, pantry-friendly dish to something extraordinary. I hope you enjoy this as much as I did. Note: I used parsley because it’s what I had on hand (flat-leaf, Italian-style), but dill — or practically any other herb, fresh or dried—would be just as delicious. European-style unsalted butter adds a little extra richness, but use whatever you have. The mushrooms were baby bellas, or creminis, though any variety will work.
