Joe Biden begins final White House holiday season with turkey pardons for 'Peach' and 'Blossom' WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Biden has kicked off his final holiday season at the White House, issuing the traditional reprieve to two turkeys who will bypass the Thanksgiving table to live out their days in Minnesota. The president welcomed 2,500 guests under sunny skies as he cracked jokes about the fates of “Peach” and “Blossom.” He also sounded wistful tones about the last weeks of his presidency. Later Monday, first lady Jill Biden will receive delivery of the official White House Christmas tree. And the Bidens will travel to New York to help serve a holiday meal at a Coast Guard station. Warren Buffett gives away another $1.1B and plans for distributing his $147B fortune after his death OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — Investor Warren Buffett renewed his Thanksgiving tradition of giving by announcing plans Monday to hand more than $1.1 billion of Berkshire Hathaway stock to four of his family's foundations, and he offered new details about who will be handing out the rest of his fortune after his death. Buffett has said previously that his three kids will distribute his remaining $147.4 billion fortune in the 10 years after his death, but now he has also designated successors for them because it’s possible that Buffett’s children could die before giving it all away. Buffett said he has no regrets about his decision to start giving away his fortune in 2006. Bah, humbug! Vandal smashes Ebenezer Scrooge's tombstone used in 'A Christmas Carol' movie LONDON (AP) — If life imitates art, a vandal in the English countryside may be haunted by The Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come. Police in the town of Shrewsbury are investigating how a tombstone at the fictional grave of Ebenezer Scrooge was destroyed. The movie prop used in the 1984 adaption of Charles Dickens' “A Christmas Carol” had become a tourist attraction. The film starred George C. Scott as the cold-hearted curmudgeon who is visited by three ghosts on Christmas Eve who show him what will become of his life if he doesn’t become a better person. West Mercia Police say the stone was vandalized in the past week. At the crossroads of news and opinion, 'Morning Joe' hosts grapple with aftermath of Trump meeting The reaction of those who defended “Morning Joe” hosts Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski for meeting with President-elect Trump sounds almost quaint in the days of opinionated journalism. Doesn't it makes sense, they said, for hosts of a political news show to meet with such an important figure? But given how “Morning Joe” has attacked Trump, its viewers felt insulted. Many reacted quickly by staying away. It all reflects the broader trend of opinion crowding out traditional journalist in today's marketplace, and the expectations that creates among consumers. By mid-week, the show's audience was less than two-thirds what it has typically been this year. Pop star Ed Sheeran apologizes to Man United boss Ruben Amorim for crashing interview MANCHESTER, England (AP) — British pop star Ed Sheeran has apologized to Ruben Amorim after inadvertently interrupting the new Manchester United head coach during a live television interview. Amorim was talking on Sky Sports after United’s 1-1 draw with Ipswich on Sunday when Sheeran walked up to embrace analyst Jamie Redknapp. The interview was paused before Redknapp told the pop star to “come and say hello in a minute.” Sheeran is a lifelong Ipswich fan and holds a minority stake in the club. He was pictured celebrating after Omari Hutchinson’s equalizing goal in the game at Portman Road. A desert oasis outside of Dubai draws a new caravan: A family of rodents from Argentina AL QUDRA LAKES, United Arab Emirates (AP) — A desert oasis hidden away in the dunes in the far reaches of skyscraper-studded Dubai has drawn a surprising new set of weary world travelers: a pack of Argentinian rodents. A number of Patagonian mara, a rabbit-like mammal with long legs, big ears and a body like a hoofed animal, now roam the grounds of Al Qudra Lakes, typically home to gazelle and other desert creatures of the United Arab Emirates. How they got there remains a mystery in the UAE, a country where exotic animals have ended up in the private homes and farms of the wealthy. But the pack appears to be thriving there and likely have survived several years already in a network of warrens among the dunes. New Zealanders save more than 30 stranded whales by lifting them on sheets WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) — More than 30 pilot whales that stranded themselves on a beach in New Zealand have been safely returned to the ocean after conservation workers and residents helped to refloat them by lifting them on sheets. New Zealand’s conservation agency said four whales died. New Zealand is a whale stranding hotspot and pilot whales are especially prolific stranders. The agency praised as “incredible” the efforts made by hundreds of people to help save the foundering pod. A Māori cultural ceremony for the three adult whales and one calf that died in the stranding took place Monday. Rainbow-clad revelers hit Copacabana beach for Rio de Janeiro’s pride parade RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) — Thousands of revelers have gathered alongside Copacabana beach for Rio de Janeiro’s annual gay pride parade, many scantily dressed and covered in glitter. Rainbow-colored flags, towels and fans abounded among the crowd mostly made up of young revelers, who danced and sang along to music blaring from speakers. While the atmosphere was festive, some spoke of the threat of violence LGBTQ+ people face in Brazil. At least 230 LGBTQ+ Brazilians were victims of violent deaths in 2023, according to the umbrella watchdog group Observatory of LGBTQ+ deaths and violence in Brazil. Stolen shoe mystery solved at Japanese kindergarten when security camera catches weasel in the act TOKYO (AP) — Police thought a shoe thief was on the loose at a kindergarten in southwestern Japan, until a security camera caught the furry culprit in action. A weasel with a tiny shoe in its mouth was spotted on the video footage after police installed three cameras in the school in the prefecture of Fukuoka. “It’s great it turned out not to be a human being,” said Deputy Police Chief Hiroaki Inada. Teachers and parents had feared it could be a disturbed person with a shoe fetish. Japanese customarily take their shoes off before entering homes. The vanished shoes were all slip-ons the children wore indoors, stored in cubbyholes near the door. Social media sites call for Australia to delay its ban on children younger than 16 MELBOURNE, Australia (AP) — An advocate for major social media platforms has told Australia's Parliament that a plan to ban children younger than 16 from the sites should be delayed rather than being rushed to approval this week. Sunita Bose is managing director of Digital Industry Group Inc. which is an advocate for the digital industry in Australia including X, Instagram, Facebook and TikTok. She was answering questions on Monday at a single-day Senate committee hearing into world-first legislation that was introduced into the Parliament last week. Bose said the Parliament should wait until the government-commissioned evaluation of age assurance technologies is completed next year.Special counsel moves to dismiss election interference and classified documents cases against TrumpA significant earthquake measuring 5.7 on the Richter scale struck the state of Nevada in the United States, sending shock waves and rattling nerves across the region. The earthquake's epicenter was located at a depth of 10 kilometers beneath the surface, causing varying degrees of shaking and potential damage to buildings and infrastructure in the affected areas.

According to a “state of credit card report” for 2025 from credit bureau Experian, 53% of Americans in a survey say they use digital wallets more frequently than traditional payment methods. To further incentivize mobile wallet usage, some credit card issuers offer bonus rewards when you elect to pay that way. But those incentives can go beyond just higher reward rates. In fact, mobile wallets in some ways are becoming an essential part of activating and holding a credit card. For example, they can offer immediate access to your credit line, and they can be easier and safer than paying with a physical card. From a rewards perspective, it can make a lot of sense to reach for your phone now instead of your physical card. The Apple Card offers its highest reward rates when you use it through the Apple Pay mobile wallet. Same goes for the PayPal Cashback Mastercard® when you use it to make purchases via the PayPal digital wallet. The Kroger grocery store giant has a co-branded credit card that earns the most when you pay using an eligible digital wallet, and some major credit cards with quarterly rotating bonus categories have a history of incentivizing digital wallet use. But again, these days it’s not just about the rewards. Mobile wallets like Apple Pay, Samsung Pay and PayPal can offer immediate access to your credit line while you wait for your physical card to arrive after approval. Indeed, most major issuers including Bank of America®, Capital One and Chase now offer instant virtual credit card numbers for eligible cards that can be used upon approval by adding them to a digital wallet. Additionally, many co-branded credit cards — those offered in partnership with another brand — commonly offer instant card access and can be used immediately on in-brand purchases. Credit cards typically take seven to 10 days to arrive after approval, so instant access to your credit line can be particularly useful if you need to make an urgent or unexpected purchase. Plus, they allow you to start spending toward a card’s sign-up bonus right away. As issuers push toward mobile payments, a growing number of merchants and businesses are similarly adopting the payment method. The percentage of U.S. businesses that used digital wallets increased to 62% in 2023, compared to 47% the previous year, according to a 2023 survey commissioned by the Federal Reserve Financial Services. Wider acceptance is potentially good news for the average American, who according to Experian has about four credit cards. While that won’t necessarily weigh down your wallet, it can be hard to manage multiple cards and rewards categories at once. Mobile wallets offer a more efficient way to store and organize all of your workhorse cards, while not having to carry around ones that you don’t use often. They can also help you more easily monitor your spending and rewards, and some even track your orders’ status and arrival time. Plus, paying with a digital wallet offers added security. That’s because it uses technology called tokenization when you pay, which masks your real credit card number and instead sends an encrypted “token” that’s unique to each payment. This is unlike swiping or dipping a physical card, during which your credit card number is more directly accessible. And again, because a mobile wallet doesn’t require you to have your physical cards present, there’s less chance of one falling out of your pocket or purse.

Furthermore, the policy orientation for the next year also places a strong emphasis on sustainability and long-term growth. While the immediate priority is to stabilize the economy and support recovery, it is equally important to lay the groundwork for sustainable and inclusive growth in the future. This includes investing in critical infrastructure, promoting innovation and technology adoption, and enhancing human capital development.From completing its $10 million Series B equity financing to being awarded the 2024 AI Breakthrough Award for "Best AI Governance Platform" and achieving inclusion on Inc.'s Best in Business List, it was a year of continued momentum for the leading AI Governance software company for enterprises. CHICAGO , Dec. 18, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- The leading AI Governance software for enterprises, ModelOp , announced today it experienced an exponential increase of platform usage in 2024 through new customer acquisition, generative AI adoption, and expanding need for its AI portfolio intelligence and governance capabilities. For the second consecutive year, the company achieved massive, continued growth in the financial services, healthcare, and CPG sectors with customers that include Fidelity Investments, FINRA, and Bristol Myers Squibb. ModelOp's excellence was well-recognized this year. It won the prestigious 2024 AI Breakthrough Award for "Best AI Governance Platform", an award series that celebrates the world's most innovative companies, technologies, and products in the artificial intelligence industry with more than 5,000 applicants globally this year. The firm also was named to Inc.'s 2024 Best in Business List in the AI & Data category, an award that celebrates the exceptional achievements and contributions of companies that have made a profound impact on their industries and on society at large. In addition, Polaris Market Research & Consulting named ModelOp a key player in the rapidly growing Model Operations market. MMC Ventures named ModelOp a "Who's Who in Responsible AI" and a leader in AI Governance. ModelOp also completed its $10 million Series B Equity financing led by Baird Capital. With the new capital, ModelOp is actively building upon its market-leading AI portfolio intelligence and governance capabilities that establish visibility into AI initiatives and value, and enforce policies consistently to help organizations stay compliant even as regulations evolve rapidly. This investment follows the new release of ModelOp version 3.3 , the third-generation of its software. It enables enterprises to manage AI as a portfolio and provide " Minimum Viable Governance " (MVG), which allows companies to apply just enough governance to protect the business while accelerating AI innovation. Version 3.3 also includes the world's first AI Governance Score, a standardized metric that measures risk across diverse AI initiatives. ModelOp's new AI Governance Score provides executives with real-time visibility into all AI initiatives — including generative AI, in-house, third-party, and embedded AI systems — and their risks across the entire enterprise, even as global regulations evolve. ModelOp helps Chief AI Officers (CAIOs), CDAOs, CIOs, CISOs, AI leaders, and Governance teams responsibly accelerate AI innovation and keep their organizations safe through a comprehensive AI Governance inventory, automated controls, and streamlined reporting capabilities. "Unlike other solutions, only ModelOp's software provides executives unprecedented visibility into the AI being used across their organizations," said Pete Foley , CEO of ModelOp. "This enables enterprises to deliver transformational and responsible AI systems. ModelOp 3.3 allows executives to manage their AI use cases and models as a portfolio and track KPIs including revenue, costs, savings, cost avoidance, and ROI. Additionally, ModelOp enables AI and legal teams to stay on their front foot as regulations like the EU AI Act and US state and federal agency rules take effect. It was a remarkable year for ModelOp and our new capital is enabling us to accelerate our expansion. Looking forward to 2025, we are excited to introduce new capabilities, and continue our rapid growth as the leading AI Governance software." Also of note this year, ModelOp partnered with CDO Magazine to produce the 2024 Responsible AI Benchmark Report that revealed a growing gap between the rapid adoption of AI and the implementation of responsible AI Governance practices. The survey of nearly 150 executives across diverse industries provides insights on AI adoption, use cases in production, governance capabilities, and top risks. The free report clearly shows growing risks with enterprise AI strategy. About ModelOp ModelOp is the leading AI Governance software for enterprises and helps safeguard all AI initiatives - including generative AI, Large Language Models (LLMs), in-house, third-party, and embedded systems - without stifling innovation. Through automation and integrations, ModelOp empowers enterprises to quickly address the critical governance and scale challenges necessary to protect and fully unlock the transformational value of enterprise AI - resulting in effective and responsible AI systems.

In a thrilling display of skill and finesse, the Beijing basketball team recently secured their third consecutive victory by capitalizing on their impressive 3-point shooting. Led by the outstanding performance of Zeng Fanbo, who seemed to channel the legendary wisdom and strength of King Solomon on the boards, Beijing's dominance on the court left fans and opponents alike in awe.

LOS ANGELES –– The Kings defeated one of the NHL’s hottest teams and turned in a perfect afternoon on special teams as they beat the Seattle Kraken 2-1 on Saturday at Crypto.com Arena. The Kings scored the game’s only power-play goal, reversing a troubling recent trend in the process, and were 3 for 3 on the penalty kill. They entered the match as losers of three of their last four games while Seattle had prevailed in five of its past six clashes. Adrian Kempe and Quinton Byfield, who was playing in his 200th career game, each found the net for the Kings. Anže Kopitar assisted on both goals. David Rittich stopped all 19 shots. Brandon Montour scored late for Seattle on an active night for the former Ducks defenseman. Joey Daccord made 19 saves. Two of the NHL’s 10 best teams defensively produced a predictably low-event first period – while the Kraken and Kings once combined for 17 goals in a game, they had only nine combined shots in the opening 20 minutes – but the Kings flipped the script with goals at the 4:19 and 6:03 marks of the middle frame. First, it was the vision of Alex Turcotte synergizing the finishing ability of Kempe, who scored his 10th goal of the season and his 11th point in his past 11 games. Turcotte received the puck behind the net, curled toward the right-wing boards and sold a play along the wall as he sucked in four Kraken defenders. His no-look pass hit Kempe in the slot, with Adam Larsson unable to close his gap and Daccord having little chance at Kempe’s searing short-side wrister. Then, two weights were lifted at once when the power play scored its first goal since Brandt Clarke’s Nov. 9 empty-netter and Byfield tallied for the first time since he scored in consecutive games Nov. 5 and Nov. 7. He scored his third goal of the year and the first for the newly configured top power-play unit with a kneeling one-timer from the right faceoff circle. The primary assist was Kevin Fiala’s first point in seven games and the secondary one, as it did on Kempe’s goal, went to Kopitar. The captain’s pair of helpers brought him to 14 points in his past 11 games, remaining a beacon of consistency even in lean offensive stretches for the team. The Kings had the opportunity to slam the door at the end of the period when a bizarre sequence during a Seattle power play left Byfield and Warren Foegele with a two-on-none shorthanded rush. After four passes across Daccord’s crease, Foegele’s eventual shot was negated by the handle of Daccord’s stick. Foegele would have another brush with glory in the third period, right after Montour had two of his own. His slap shot was saved by Rittich but his follow-up bid beat the big Czech, only to dent the right post just below the crossbar. Montour broke through 23 seconds after the Kings survived a six-on-four sequence, when his slap shot roared past Rittich with 1:34 to play, but Seattle drew no nearer.

A recent survey conducted by the Pew Research Center has shed light on the shifting social media landscape among teenagers, with nearly half of them reporting being online almost constantly. Teens are moving away from X/Twitter and Facebook as they continue to embrace China’s TikTok as their platform of choice. The Pew Research Center’s latest survey , which involved nearly 1,400 teens aged 13 to 17, has revealed some interesting trends in social media usage among the younger generation. The most striking finding is that almost half of the participants reported being online almost constantly, a significant increase from just a quarter five years ago. This trend highlights the growing concern among parents and experts about the potential impact of excessive internet use on teenagers. Despite the overall increase in internet usage, the survey also showed that traditional social media platforms are losing their appeal among teens. YouTube, which remains the most popular platform, saw a decline in its user base from 95 percent in 2022 to 90 percent this year. However, it still maintains a strong lead over other platforms, with TikTok coming in second at 63 percent. Interestingly, the survey revealed a gender divide in platform preferences. Teen girls are more likely to use TikTok almost constantly, while boys tend to favor YouTube. This difference in usage patterns may be attributed to the distinct content and features offered by each platform, catering to the varying interests and preferences of the two genders. Instagram, which ranks third in popularity among teens at 61 percent, has seen a slight increase in its user share compared to last year. Snapchat follows closely behind, with 55 percent of teens using the platform. However, the once-dominant Facebook has been steadily losing its teenage user base over the years. In 2014-2015, 71 percent of teens reported using Facebook, but the platform has now been labeled as an app for “old people,” resulting in a significant exodus of younger users. Despite this, Facebook has managed to maintain its 32 percent share of teen users for the past two years. WhatsApp, another Meta-owned platform, has experienced a notable increase in popularity among teens, rising from 17 percent in 2022 to 23 percent this year. This growth suggests that large group chats and messaging services are starting to replace traditional social media as the preferred means of communication for teenagers. On the other hand, X (formerly known as Twitter) has been rapidly losing its teen user base. A decade ago, when it was still called Twitter, the platform was used by 33 percent of teenagers. However, its popularity has now declined to just 17 percent, with a five percent drop in the last two years alone. The survey also revealed that 95 percent of teenagers own a smartphone, while 88 percent have access to a desktop or laptop computer at home. These figures underscore the ubiquity of digital devices in the lives of young people and the importance of addressing the potential risks associated with excessive screen time and online activity.
