711 makati

711 makati Given Donald Trump’s history of making false or misleading statements — and his fixation on people’s physical appearance and size — it’s not a reach to think that he’d exaggerate his height. The president-elect has long claimed that he stands a commanding 6-foot-3, the Daily Mail reported . But the 78-year-old didn’t appear to measure up to that height, not while standing next to Prince William, who also is said to be 6-foot-3. The height discrepancy of an inch or two was visible when Trump met the heir to the British throne at the reopening of Notre Dame in Paris on Saturday. Trump and William appeared to enjoy a cordial exchange as they shook hands inside the cathedral, though the prince had to bend his head to meet the shorter man’s gaze. Trump and William later posed for photos at the residence of the British ambassador to France, as an exercise of soft diplomacy. Trump, again, looked somewhat shorter than the son of King Charles III and the late Princess Diana. Incidentally, the former reality TV star once claimed that he could have “nailed” Diana, and he also insisted in 2023 that William’s mother was among the celebrities who wanted to “kiss” up to him before he went into politics, People reported. The latter claim was fiercely denounced by Diana’s brother, Charles, 9th Earl Spencer, who said that the princess once likened Trump to a very bad sore in “the arse,” in the one and only time he said she mentioned him. It’s not likely that William brought up Trump’s boasts and insults at the Notre Dame event. After all, he was there to represent his father and British government. If there’s any consolation, he appeared to tower above the man who once spoke disrespectfully about his mother — even as he also appeared to have a friendly chat with the incoming U.S. president. Trump, for his part, praised William, quipping to reporters: “Good man, this one.” In a later interview with the New York Post , Trump had more positive things to say about the future king, saying they had a “great” 40-minute chat. “I asked him about his wife and he said she’s doing well,” Trump told the Post, referring to the Princess of Wales’ treatment over the past year for cancer. Trump also referred to Charles’ cancer battle, saying, “And I asked him about his father and his father is fighting very hard, and he loves his father and he loves his wife, so it was sad. We had a great talk for half an hour, a little more than half an hour. We had a great, great talk.” Meanwhile, it’s possible that Trump has become shorter than his stated 6-foot-3. It’s known that men can begin to shrink as they age. Some health experts say that men can lose an inch in height between ages 30 and 70, and lose another inch after they turn 80. Trump is almost 80. According to the Daily Mail, Trump remains sensitive about his height, as he has boasted about the beauty and stature of his oldest daughter Ivanka Trump . He also has expressed pride in the fact that his youngest son, 18-year-old Barron, has grown to a towering 6-foot-7. But “rumors have long swirled” that Trump relies on “lifters” — insoles in shoes — or taller heels to give him an additional height, the Daily Mail reported. Unfortunately for Trump, he has begun to appear shorter than he might like when he has recently posed besides other world figures and business leaders, according to the Daily Mail. For example, Trump didn’t look much taller standing next to the 5-foot-7 French President Emmanuel Macron at the Elysee Palace on Saturday. Trump also has been somewhat dwarfed physically by his fervent new supporter, the 6-foot-2 Elon Musk, the Daily Mail said. When the Tesla and Space X founder joined Trump at his campaign appearances, or when he hosted the 47th president to the Nov. 19 launch of his SpaceX Starship rocket, he stood “significantly” taller than the new president, the Daily Mail reported. ©2024 MediaNews Group, Inc.

Distributed by Tribune Content Agency, LLC.KYIV, (Ukraine): Ukraine on Thursday accused Russia of having deployed a ballistic missile designed to carry nuclear warheads for the first time in history which, if confirmed, would be a major escalation of the war. Ukrainian allies have yet to confirm initial assessments from Kyiv’s military that Russia had launched an intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM). The Kremlin has not denied it used the weapon, which can strike targets from a distance of thousands of kilometres, spokesman Dmitri Peskov refusing to comment when questioned. The Ukrainian air force said Moscow had launched the nuclear-capable missile as part of a barrage towards the central city of Dnipro, where local authorities said an infrastructure facility was hit and two civilians were wounded. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said experts were examining evidence before confirming an intercontinental ballistic missile had been fired by “our crazy neighbour”. He said that the attack bore “all the characteristics” of an ICBM attack and accused the Kremlin of “using Ukraine as a testing ground”. Ukraine’s foreign ministry spokesman said analysts were preparing their “expert conclusions” while adding that the attack bore “all flight characteristics of an ICBM”. “The strike itself proves: Russia does not seek peace. To the contrary, it makes every effort to expand the war,” spokesman Georgiy Tykhy said in a statement on social media. The attack on Dnipro comes just days after several foreign embassies shuttered temporarily in the Ukrainian capital, citing the threat of a large-scale strike. Tension has been building between Moscow and Kyiv’s allies in the West since Ukrainian forces struck Russian territory with Western-supplied long-range weapons on Tuesday after getting the green light from Washington. Asked whether Moscow had fired an ICBM, Kremlin spokesman Peskov said he had “nothing to say on this topic”. He did however say the Kremlin was doing everything to avoid a nuclear conflict, having updated its nuclear doctrine this week. “We have stressed in the context of our doctrine that Russia is taking a responsible position to make maximum effort not to allow such a conflict,” Peskov said. Russia’s foreign ministry spokeswoman received a phone call during a live press briefing, in which she was ordered not to comment on reports of the ballistic strike, video showed. Yuzhmash is the Russian name of an aerospace manufacturer — now called Pivdenmash — in Dnipro that produced missiles during the Soviet era and is reported now to make satellites. Russia claimed to have struck the facility in September this year. Western countries reacted with alarm. “While we’re assessing the full facts it’s obvious that such (an) attack would mark yet another clear escalation from the side of (Vladimir) Putin,” European Union foreign affairs spokesman Peter Stano told reporters. The United Kingdom said the strike would be “reckless and escalatory” if confirmed. France said it would represent an “extremely serious” incident. Ukraine’s air force said it had downed missiles launched on the industrial city, without elaborating on whether the alleged intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) was among those downed. The head of the Dnipropetrovsk region where the city of Dnipro is located said the Russian aerial bombardment damaged a rehabilitation centre and several homes, as well as an industrial enterprise. “Two people were wounded — a 57-year-old man was treated on the scene and a 42-year-old woman was hospitalised,” said the official, Sergiy Lysak. Fabian Hoffmann, a research fellow at the University of Oslo, who specialises in missile technology, said Russia had nothing to gain militarily by using an ICBM in such an attack. “This is all about the political effect. This is not about the military value,” Hoffmann told AFP. Russia and Ukraine have escalated their use of long-range missiles in recent days since the Washington gave Kyiv permission to use its Army Tactical Missile System (ATACMS) against military targets inside Russia — a long-standing Ukrainian request. British media meanwhile reported on Wednesday that Kyiv had launched UK-supplied Storm Shadow missiles at targets in Russia after being given the green light from London. The defence ministry in Moscow said Thursday its air-defence systems had downed two Storm Shadows, without saying whether they had come down on Russian territory or in occupied Ukraine. The missile escalation is coming at a critical moment on the ground for Ukraine, as its defensive lines buckle under Russian pressure across the sprawling front line. Russia claimed deeper advances in the war-battered Donetsk region, announcing on Thursday that its forces had captured another village close to Kurakhove, closing in on the town after months of steady advances. Moscow’s defence ministry said Russian forces had taken the small village of Dalne, five kilometres (three miles) south of Kurakhove. Lysak, the governor of the Dnipropetrovsk region, said that 26 people had been wounded in another strike on the town of Kryvyi Rig, where Zelensky was born.

Not less than 100 survivors of Gender-Based Violence (GBV) and other forms of violence in Sokoto State have taken significant steps toward economic independence and healing. This new initiative, under the Neem Foundation Vocational and Entrepreneurship Project, is carried out in partnership with the French Embassy in Nigeria. Speaking in his remarks on Wednesday, Malam Kabiru Mahe, the foundation Program Coordinator in Sokoto State, stated that the initiative aims to equip beneficiaries with practical livelihood skills and provide vital mental health support. “This program is designed to give survivors a renewed sense of purpose and stability.” “Since its inception, over 300 women have been trained in skills such as soap making, baking, and digital technology,” he said. He highlighted the foundation’s holistic approach, which addresses both the economic and emotional needs of the survivors. “We’ve witnessed remarkable transformation. Beyond the vocational training, mental health and psychosocial support have been integral to the project’s success. “Moreover, these women are not just learning skills—they’re reclaiming their lives,” he emphasised. Malam Buhari Suleiman, Director of Administration at the Sokoto Small and Medium Enterprises Development Agency (SOSMEDA), lauded the impact of the project on the community. “This initiative has made a tangible difference in the lives of women across the state. It is empowering individuals and strengthening communities,” he said. Sulaiman assured that the government would ensure the project’s sustainability while exploring additional avenues of support for the beneficiaries. Speaking on behalf of the beneficiaries, Malama Nafisa Abdullah, described the intervention as life-changing. “Before this, meeting my basic needs was a constant struggle. Now, I can earn a living, and the mental health support has helped me let go of past pain. My family and I are finally moving forward,” she said.

Ansys Report Highlights Simulation’s Role in Improving Sustainability Across Industries – including fast-charging batteries and hydrogen fuel cell

Daily Post Nigeria Infinix 2024: A year of power moves, big wins and bold innovation Home News Politics Metro Entertainment Sport Sponsored Infinix 2024: A year of power moves, big wins and bold innovation Published on December 17, 2024 By Daily Post Staff In 2024, Infinix solidified its place as a driving force in the global technology landscape. With a series of bold product launches, impactful partnerships, and initiatives that empowered youth, women, educators, students and communities, Infinix’s influence extended beyond mobile devices. This was a year of dominance, growth, and evolution. A notable shift in 2024 was Infinix’s transformation of its brand ethos from “The Future is Now” to “Get In Now”. This new tagline was evident in every aspect of its operations, from its product launches to its community empowerment initiatives. As 2024 draws to a close, one thing is clear: Infinix isn’t just chasing the future — it’s seizing it. IMPACTFUL PARTNERSHIPS THAT SHAPED THE YEAR Beyond devices, Infinix believes that progress is best achieved together. This year, the brand struck strategic partnerships that uplifted communities, empowered youth, and captured the attention of millions. One of the most talked-about initiatives was the PUBG Mobile Campus Championship (PMCC). Infinix gave Nigerian university students a chance to showcase their gaming skills in a fierce competition for a share of a ₦10 million prize pool and the opportunity to attend the PUBG Mobile Global Championship (PMGC) in London. Infinix also partnered with FilmHouse Cinemas for the exclusive premiere of Bad Boys: Ride or Die,in Nigeria, showcasing the capabilities of the NOTE 40 Series. The fast-charging prowess of the series was perfectly aligned with the energy-packed action movie, cementing Infinix’s status as a lifestyle brand. Another standout partnership was with UNESCO, where Infinix took a bold step to advance STEM education. Through a two-day AI and robotics training workshop in Abuja and at the University of Ibadan, Nigerian educators and students were equipped with hands-on skills in coding, machine learning, AI, and robotics, thereby shaping the future of education and tech innovation in Nigeria. Other notable partnerships included collaborations with Gamr X, Showmax, i-Fitness, Jumia, and Mai Atafo. Infinix also partnered with The Future Awards Africa, where it sponsored the Content Creator of the Year award, gifting the winner, Layi Wasabi, ₦1 million and the Zero Flip smartphone, reaffirming its support for young creatives and innovators. CELEBRITY ENDORSEMENTS & TALENT PARTNERSHIPS For many, the highlight of 2024 was the announcement of Ayra Starr as the face of Infinix’s HOT Series. Known for her bold, fearless energy and unapologetic style, Ayra embodied the spirit of the HOT Series — youthful, vibrant, and trend-setting. Her connection to the HOT 50 Series brought even more attention to the brand. COMMUNITY EMPOWERMENT AND CSR INITIATIVES Infinix’s approach to community empowerment and social responsibility is driven by the belief that technology should uplift and empower. This year, Infinix made several moves that impacted education, women’s empowerment, and customer appreciation. Earlier in the year, Infinix took customer appreciation to new heights with its ‘Win a Trip to Ivory Coast’ campaign. Lucky winners from different regions of Nigeria were flown to Ivory Coast to watch an AFCON match live, explore the country’s vibrant culture and hangout with Alex Iwobi, the then Infinix HOT 40 ambassador. Another impactful project was the renovation of the ICT Student Resource Centre at the University of Ibadan. The facility now provides students with access to the latest tech tools and skills training. Infinix even went a step further to offer job placements to graduates of the university at Transsion’s subsidiaries. Infinix also committed to gender equity by sponsoring 20 women for the WIMBIZ Mentorship Program, giving them access to knowledge, leadership, and networking opportunities. This year also saw the Sallah Promo, a campaign that brought joy to communities across Nigeria. Winners were rewarded with ₦400,000 in cash and household appliances like swallow makers, microwaves, and other kitchen essentials. This initiative brought smiles to families across regions like Abuja, Oyo, Kaduna, Kano, Rivers, Lagos, and Enugu, filling homes with joy and festive spirit. The Brand Month Anniversary was another celebration of loyalty and community. Packed with surprise gifts, discounts, and giveaways, the event created excitement among customers and reinforced Infinix’s commitment to rewarding its most dedicated supporters. And then came the Back-to-School promo, which saw students win ₦350,000 cash, XPADs, and branded gifts. To top it off, the ongoing Season of Surprises Christmas promo is underway, giving customers a chance to walk away with ₦1 million, gift hampers, bags of rice, oil, and other goodies to celebrate the season. From university campuses to youth gaming tournaments to nationwide consumer campaigns, Infinix has consistently demonstrated that community empowerment is more than a promise — it’s a living reality. The brand’s approach goes beyond words, creating tangible opportunities for people to win, grow, and succeed. INNOVATION AT ITS BEST — THE DEVICES THAT STOLE THE SHOW If there’s one thing Infinix has mastered, it’s the art of launching devices that resonate with users. This year, the company introduced iconic smartphones and tablets that merged latest smartphone innovations with aesthetics. The NOTE 40 Series didn’t just launch — it set a new standard for charging technology. Equipped with All-Round FastCharge 2.0, it introduced 100W MultiSpeed FastCharge and Wireless MagCharge powered by the advanced Cheetah X1 Chip. The series included the NOTE 40, NOTE 40 Pro, and NOTE 40 Pro+, each offering sleek design, unmatched battery performance, and enhanced camera quality. Next came the HOT 50 Series, a device that redefined style and performance. Branded as the world’s slimmest 3D-curved smartphone, it featured a 6.78-inch AMOLED display and the sleek TitanWing Architecture, making it a statement of power, style, and elegance. And then there was the device that had everyone talking — the ZERO Flip. As Infinix’s first foldable phone, it launched as the only flippable phone in its class supporting 4K ProStable video capabilities on both front and rear cameras. With its 6.9-inch foldable AMOLED display, the Pro-Level Vlog Mobile became a must-have for creators, offering users advanced tools for creating high-quality vlog content. The Infinix GT 20 Pro was built with gamers in mind, offering a dual-chip setup powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 8200 and the Pixelworks X5 Turbo chip for seamless 120FPS gameplay. The SMART 9 promised value like never before. With 48 months of guaranteed fluency certified by TÜV SÜD, it was built for users who wanted performance, reliability, and a device that wouldn’t slow down over time. In addition, Infinix entered the tablet market with the launch of the XPAD, featuring a 90Hz display, Helio G99 processor, and AI-driven Folax Assistant. This versatile device became a valuable tool for students, professionals, and casual users alike. Finally, Infinix expanded its ecosystem with a range of accessories, launching the XWATCH series and the Buds collection. These accessories provided users with smart wearables and premium audio experiences. AWARDS AND GLOBAL RECOGNITION While all this was happening, global awards and industry recognition kept rolling in. Infinix didn’t just win at home — it won on the world stage.

Two teams headed in opposite directions square off Saturday afternoon in Salt Lake City when the Utah Jazz host the New York Knicks. The Jazz come in on a four-game losing streak, having most recently blown a huge lead at San Antonio on Thursday. They entered the weekend last in the Western Conference with just three wins on the season. Conversely, the Knicks bring a four-game winning streak to Utah after kicking off a five-game road trip Wednesday night with a victory at Phoenix. Coach Tom Thibodeau was pleased with how well the Knicks performed together in their 138-122 win over the short-handed Suns, who were missing injured stars Kevin Durant and Bradley Beal. "The guys are starting to get used to playing off of each other," Thibodeau said. "Each game you can see they're seeing things. They're reading the game extremely well. I think they're creating good spacing. They're cutting extremely well and what that's doing is it's opening up the floor and we're playing into space. And everyone's unselfish. We had 30 assists. I think that's huge." In the win at Phoenix, Jalen Brunson scored 23 points in the first half and Karl-Anthony Towns poured in 23 in the second half. Brunson finished with 36 points and 10 assists. He hit 12 of 21 field goals overall and drained 7 of 11 3-point attempts. Towns totaled 34 points on 12-of-19 shooting from the floor, adding 10 rebounds to help the Knicks continue their winning ways after two victories over Brooklyn and one against Washington. The Jazz came unraveled Thursday night after taking a 20-point first-half lead at San Antonio. Lauri Markkanen scored 27 and Keyonte George chipped in with 19 against the Spurs, who were playing without injured star center Victor Wembanyama. "I thought the first half, the energy, the tempo, the ball movement, the competitive spirit of the team was as good as we've seen in a while," Jazz coach Will Hardy said. That wasn't the case in the second half, however, as Utah gave up 75 points and was outscored by 12 points in both the third and fourth quarters. Reserve Brice Sensabaugh, who's seen inconsistent playing time, was a highlight for Utah in the first half, when he totaled 13 of his 18 points. "He has not complained. He's not had, like, a ‘woe-is-me' mentality. He's just come to work every day and he's taken some hard coaching," Hardy said. "He understands what's expected of him, but to his credit, he was ready, and he deserves all of the credit for that." Off to a tough start, the Jazz are hoping to find more consistency. The uneven play was evident against the Spurs, and it's been an issue at home, too. Utah returns to the Delta Center, usually a difficult venue for opponents, with just a 1-5 home record. "At the end of the day, you've got to play two halves," Collin Sexton said after scoring 18 for Utah. "We've got to play 48 minutes. You can't allow the first half to get you too high or get you too low, you've got to always stay consistent and just continue to build off of that."

According to multiple reports on Tuesday, Olivia Ponton is the person who called 911 when Burrow’s Ohio home was being broken into Monday — when the Bengals QB was busy beating the Cowboys on “Monday Night Football” in Dallas. Ponton, 22, called in the burglary at 8:14 p.m. after she pulled up to Burrow’s $7.5 million Cincinnati home and saw a “shattered bedroom window and the room ransacked.” “Someone broke into my house,” The model, who has 8 million TikTok followers, told authorities over the phone. “It’s like completely messed up. ... Can we please send more people?” An investigation into the incident remains ongoing, though it marks at least the third star NFLer to have their house broken into during a game. It comes on the heels of break-ins at Travis Kelce and Patrick Mahomes’ homes that led the NFL to send a memo to players and teams that they may be targets . A South American crime ring is reportedly believed to be at the center of the Chiefs stars’ incidents . Ponton called her mother, Diane, who called 911, as well. “My daughter is there, this is Joe Burrow’s house. She is staying there, he’s at the football game. She’s wondering what she should do, if she should be hiding or if she should be going outside,” she said. It is unknown if anything was taken from Burrow’s house. The relationship between Ponton and Burrow, 28, is not known, though Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office documents state the influencer is “employed” by the QB. Neither has commented publicly, though it would be an awkward way to announce a romantic entanglement. Burrow was believed to be engaged to longtime girlfriend Olivia Holzmacher, though the college sweethearts never confirmed the news and have not been featured on one another social media since a Jan. 31 Instagram post by Holzmacher.
