North America is home to some of the wealthiest cities in the world, but one of them stands head and shoulders above the rest. The city is known for its skyscrapers, busy streets, and has the reputation as a massive global financial hub. With a thriving economy and a history of attracting the world’s richest individuals, it’s no surprise the city has more billionaires and millionaires than anywhere else in the region. The city in question is New York City , home to 350,000 millionaires, 744 centi-millionaires (anyone worth 100 million or more), and 60 billionaires, according to Henley & Partner's Wealth Index . Its economy generated an impressive $1.286 trillion (£950 billion) in 2023, with Manhattan alone contributing $939 billion (£746 billion) - that's more than Poland’s entire GDP of $811.2 billion (£645 billion) in 2023. This cannot come as a surprise, considering that Wall Street alone hosts the world’s two largest stock exchanges, the New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq. Beyond finance, New York thrives in industries like real estate, technology, media, and art. It’s a city where innovation meets tradition, and its influence extends globally. The diverse economy and opportunities have attracted people from all over the world, resulting in a population of over 8.2 million, speaking more than 800 languages. Known for its fast-paced lifestyle, New York is also home to some of the most expensive residential properties in the world. Fifth Avenue holds the title of the world’s most expensive shopping street, while Manhattan’s soaring rental prices show that the city appeals to both residents and businesses. But New York isn’t just a city for the wealthy elite; it’s also a place for culture and creative industries. From Broadway to world-class museums, the city offers a wealth of experiences that draw millions of tourists every year, who also contribute to its huge economy.As the conflict between the players and the club intensifies, all eyes are on Busquets to see how he will navigate the challenging terrain ahead.

A week after a demoralizing loss to the Tennessee Titans, the AFC South-leading Houston Texans might have a perfect opportunity to reboot when they face the host Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday. Then again, maybe not. It depends, Houston coach DeMeco Ryans said, if the Texans (7-5) are "locked in" and able to make a December push. "I just look at it as being intensely focused on your job and being where you're supposed to be, executing the minor details of your job," Ryans said. "It all comes down to minor, minute details that you get exploited if you don't do them the correct way and teams find those and they make you pay. "And a lot of the things, as I talked to our guys about, are things that we can control." Jacksonville (2-9), sitting at the bottom of the AFC South, is coming off a humiliating 52-6 loss to the Detroit Lions. It marked the fourth straight setback for the Jaguars, who had dropped their previous three games by a combined 13 points. Jaguars coach Doug Pederson noted that changes are coming, although he opted not to show his cards. "I'm not going to get into the whole details of things, but there are things in the run game that we have to get back to," Pederson said. "Even in the passing game, tweaking some things there. There are things that can, hopefully, help our production over the last six weeks." One of those things could be the return of starting quarterback Trevor Lawrence, who has not played since Nov. 3 due to a left shoulder injury. Lawrence was a limited participant during practice on Wednesday, with Pederson telling reporters Monday that the signal-caller's status for Sunday would be determined as the week progresses. Pederson has also had his eye on Houston quarterback C.J. Stroud, who has run into some struggles during his sophomore season. Stroud has thrown nine interceptions in 12 games (all starts) after throwing only five as a rookie. He was picked off twice in the 32-27 setback against Tennessee, also throwing for 247 yards and two touchdowns on 20-for-33 passing. Pederson still believes the 23-year-old can hurt the Jaguars, though. "Playing the quarterback position is hard," Pederson said. "I don't know everything that goes on down there. I'm sure there's been injury, guys have missed (time). He's missed his playmakers from time to time. And then there's the film. There's the film out there." The Texans have lost three of their past four games and four of their past six as defenses continue to solve Stroud. Defensive ends Will Anderson Jr. (ankle) and Denico Autry (knee) were among those who didn't practice for Houston on Wednesday, and safety Jalen Pitre is expected to miss several weeks because of a shoulder injury. Linebacker Yasir Abdullah (hamstring) was the only Jaguar to miss practice on Wednesday. Cornerback Tyson Campbell (shoulder) joined Lawrence as limited. Sunday marks the second meeting of the season between the teams. The Texans topped Jacksonville 24-20 back on Sept. 29. --Field Level MediaPoulin has game winner as Montreal Victoire tops Minnesota Frost 3-2 for 3rd straight win

The Bucs signed the two-time Super Bowl champion on Saturday, while also announcing safety Jordan Whitehead was activated from injured reserve ahead of Sunday’s home game against the Carolina Panthers. Barrett spent five seasons with Tampa Bay from 2019 to 2023. He led the NFL with a franchise-record 19 1-2 sacks in his first year with the Bucs, then helped the team win its second Super Bowl title the following season. In all, Barrett started 70 games with Tampa Bay, amassing 45 sacks, 15 forced fumbles, two fumble recoveries and three interceptions. He was released last winter in a salary cap move, signed a one-year contract with the Miami Dolphins in free agency, then abruptly announced his retirement on social media before the start of training camp in July. Barrett, who also won a Super Bowl during a four-season stint with the Denver Broncos, decided to unretire last month. He signed with the Bucs after clearing waivers earlier in the week. Whitehead has missed the past four games with a pectoral injury. His return comes of the heels of the Bucs placing safety Christian Izien on IR with a pectoral injury. On Saturday, the Bucs also activated rookie wide receiver Kameron Johnson from IR and elevated punter Jack Browning to the active roster from the practice squad. NFL: https://apnews.com/hub/nfl
