Once underdogs, the team has climbed to an 4th position in the standings, trailing only Police Volleyball Club (PVC), Rwanda Energy Group (REG), and defending champions APR. The club, coached by Vincent Dusabimana, is enjoying a remarkable rise from finishing 7th in the previous season to challenging the title this season. Out of seven games played so far, EAUR won four, including notable wins against two of Rwandan heavyweights APR and Gisagara Volleyball Club (GVC). However, they fell short before undefeated Police Volleyball club who won the game in three straight sets 25-19, 25-16, 25-16 to finish the first phase of the campaign at the top. EAUR’s success this season stems from its strategic leadership and institutional backing. Head coach Vincent Dusabimana attributes the team’s performance to a supportive administration that understands the needs of a sports team. “To build a great team, you need a solid foundation, which includes supportive leadership. At EAUR, we are fortunate to have a president who truly understands the dynamics of sports,” Dusabimana told Times Sport. Current club president Dr. Callixte Kabera has played a pivotal role in fostering EAUR’s growth. Kabera has experience in leading successful volleyball teams, including former club University of Tourism, Technology, and Business Studies (UTB). His support ensures that the team is equipped to compete against seasoned rivals. ALSO READ:EAUR overcome APR in stunning comeback Meanwhile, Dusabimana brings a wealth of experience to EAUR. The former captain of Rwanda Energy Group (REG) captain represented Rwanda at international level over the course of 12 years and, at club level, he boasts an impressive 30 league trophies under his belt. His philosophy of resilience and respect has been instrumental in shaping the team’s competitive edge. “In volleyball, every team deserves respect. But on the court, the goal is to outdo your opponent, regardless of their reputation,” Dusabimana remarked. Reflecting on the team’s challenges from last season, Dusabimana noted that overcoming the limitations of being a university-based team was crucial. “Last season, we faced hurdles, but this year we’ve rebuilt with a renewed focus. We’re determined to prove we belong among the best,” he added. Unlike many teams that rely heavily on foreign players, EAUR has prioritized nurturing local talent. Dusabimana emphasized that while foreign players could enhance the team, the focus remains on providing young Rwandans opportunities to excel both academically and athletically. “We could bring in foreign players, but my priority is to develop local talent. These young athletes deserve a chance to grow in sports and education,” he said. On his side, team captain Cedrick Ntivuguruzwa highlighted the changes that have fueled the team’s progress. “We’ve increased our daily training sessions and introduced individual benefits for players, and this has motivated us to push beyond our limits,” Ntivuguruzwa explained. He also noted the impact of new recruits including left attacker Felex Niyomugabo and libero Ferdinand Nikwigize, who have strengthened the squad. Despite the presence of only one foreign player, Ntivuguruzwa remains confident in the team’s capabilities. “As a university-powered team, we focus on believing in ourselves. While we could include more foreign players, we are content with our current roster and confident in our abilities,” he added. ALSO READ: EAU upset Gisagara VC in commanding victory Dusabimana, who also serves as the Human Resources Manager at Radio/TV10, emphasizes the importance of education for his players. He views sports as a gateway to broader opportunities but stresses that education is key to unlocking long-term success. “Sports can open doors, but education ensures you’re ready to walk through them. I always remind my players that being an athlete is just one part of their journey,” he said.", "author": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Dylan Mugenga" }, "publisher": { "@type": "Organization", "name": "The New Times", "url": "https://www.newtimes.co.rw/", "sameAs": ["https://www.facebook.com/TheNewTimesRwanda/","https://twitter.com/NewTimesRwanda","https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCuZbZj6DF9zWXpdZVceDZkg"], "logo": { "@type": "ImageObject", "url": "/theme_newtimes/images/logo.png", "width": 270, "height": 57 } }, "copyrightHolder": { "@type": "Organization", "name": "The New Times", "url": "https://www.newtimes.co.rw/" } }
TORONTO — Canada's main stock index rose Friday, helped by strength in industrial stocks, while U.S. markets also posted gains to end the week. The S&P/TSX composite index closed up 53.60 points at 25,444.28. In New York, the Dow Jones industrial average was up 426.16 points at 44,296.51. The S&P 500 index was up 20.63 points at 5,969.34, while the Nasdaq composite was up 31.23 points at 19,003.65. Markets ended the week on a calmer note, almost two weeks after the election of Donald Trump in the U.S. set investors on a rally. The S&P 500 ended the day within about 0.5 per cent of the all-time high it set last week. “It just seems like more of the same, that the market’s still in a pretty positive setting coming out of the election,” said Greg Taylor, chief investment officer at Purpose Investments. This week also saw the latest earnings from semiconductor giant Nvidia, which beat expectations but weren’t enough to impress markets. Nvidia made a small gain Thursday and was down more than three per cent Friday. The Dow outperformed its U.S. peers again Friday, rising one per cent, while the S&P 500 was up 0.35 per cent and the Nasdaq gained just 0.16 per cent. Taylor said markets have been undergoing a rotation not just away from the big tech names and into other sectors, but also within the tech sector, and into areas like software. “We’re certainly seeing the broader market ... starting to do a lot better post the Trump win,” he said, adding it’s “just a nice way to end the year,” which was largely dominated by gains in the major tech names because of artificial intelligence. Target’s earnings miss earlier in the week prompted the retailer’s stock to drop, but Taylor said the market has been taking that news as company-specific rather than as an indicator of consumer behaviour. “In some situations, you’d say that’s a negative sign of the economy,” he said. In contrast, Walmart's earnings this week were strong, as was its forecast. Bitcoin continued its meteoric post-election rise, hovering around US$99,000, according to CoinDesk. The Canadian dollar traded for 71.54 cents US compared with 71.63 cents US on Thursday. The January crude oil contract was up US$1.14 at US$71.24 per barrel and the January natural gas contract was down 19 cents at US$3.29 per mmBTU. The December gold contract was up US$37.30 at US$2,712.20 an ounce and the December copper contract was down four cents at US$4.09 a pound. -- With files from The Associated Press This report by The Canadian Press was first published Nov. 22, 2024.

CARSON, Calif. (AP) — Joseph Paintsil and Dejan Joveljic scored in the first half, and the L.A. Galaxy won their record sixth MLS Cup championship with a 2-1 victory over the New York Red Bulls on Saturday. After striking twice in the first 13 minutes of the final with goals from their star forwards, the Galaxy nursed their lead through a scoreless second half to raise their league’s biggest trophy for the first time since 2014. MLS’ struggled through most of the ensuing decade, even finishing 26th in the 29-team league last year. But the Galaxy turned everything around this season with a high-scoring new lineup that finished second in the Western Conference and then streaked through the playoffs with a playoff-record 18 goals in five games to win another crown. Sean Nealis scored for the seventh-seeded Red Bulls, whose improbable post-season charge ended one win shy of their first Cup championship. With the league’s youngest roster, New York fell just short of becoming the lowest-seeded team to win MLS’ playoff tournament under first-year German coach Sandro Schwarz. The Galaxy won this title without perhaps their most important player. Riqui Puig, the playmaking midfielder from Barcelona who ran their offence impressively all season long, tore a ligament in his knee last week in the Western Conference final. Puig watched this game in a suit, but his teammates hadn’t forgotten him: After his replacement, Gastón Brugman, set up LA’s opening goal with a superb pass, Paintsil held up Puig’s jersey to their fans during the celebration. Brugman was named the MLS Cup MVP after a commanding performance in midfield. The Uruguayan hadn’t started a match for the Galaxy since Oct. 5, playing only as a post-season substitute before the final. Galaxy goalkeeper John McCarthy made four saves to win his second MLS title in three seasons. He was the MVP of the 2022 MLS Cup Final for the Galaxy’s crosstown rival, Los Angeles FC. Paintsil put the Galaxy ahead in the ninth minute when he ran onto that sublime pass from Brugman and pounded home his 14th MLS goal — including four in the playoffs — in the Ghanaian forward’s outstanding first season. Just four minutes later, Joveljic sprinted past four New York defenders and chipped home the 21st goal of his outstanding year as the Galaxy’s striker. Nealis got New York on the scoreboard in the 28th minute when he volleyed home a ball that got loose in LA’s penalty area after a corner. The Galaxy’s usually shaky defence gave up another handful of good chances before reaching halftime with a tenuous lead. The second half was lively, but scoreless. Red Bulls captain Emil Forsberg hit the outside of the post in the 72nd minute, while LA’s Gabriel Pec and Galaxy substitute Marco Reus nearly converted chances a few moments later. The ball got loose again in the Galaxy’s penalty area in the third minute of extra time, but two Red Bulls couldn’t finish. The Galaxy bench rushed onto the field and prematurely celebrated a victory in the seventh minute of injury time, only to be herded back off for another 30 seconds of play. After Galaxy owner Phil Anschutz received the MLS Cup that bears his name because of his steady financial support of the league during its shaky years, Galaxy captain Maya Yoshida carried the trophy onto a stage filled with his teammates for a celebration amid fireworks and confetti. The Galaxy extended their lead over DC United (4) for the most MLS Cup championships in league history. The Red Bulls remain one of three original MLS franchises never to win the title, along with FC Dallas and the New England Revolution. The Galaxy’s Greg Vanney became the fourth coach to win an MLS title with two clubs. The former Galaxy player also won it all with Toronto in 2017. The former Galaxy player coached Toronto FC to the championship in 2017 and to runner-up finishes in both 2016 and 2019.Vanney’s coaching and technical staff in L.A. was full of former Toronto employees.Dan Calichman, Nick Theslof, former Canadian international Jason Bent, Michael Rabasca and Galaxy academy director Mike Munoz all spent time in Toronto.Jim Liston and Tom Williams, in the Galaxy sports performance department, also worked under Vanney in Toronto, as did midfielder Mark Delgado, who started Saturday, and defender Eriq Zavalaeta, who started on the Galaxy bench. The Galaxy finished 17-0-3 this season at their frequently renamed suburban stadium, where the sellout crowd of 26,812 for the final included several robust cheering sections of travelling Red Bulls supporters hoping to see their New Jersey-based club’s breakthrough on MLS’ biggest stage. Just last season, the Galaxy’s own supporters boycotted the team at certain matches, fed up with years of mismanagement and no progress. The club famous for employing global stars from David Beckham and Zlatan Ibrahimovic to Robbie Keane and Javier “Chicharito” Hernández swiftly rebuilt itself into a contender this season by spending big to get lesser-known young talents from around the world. The Galaxy signed Pec from Brazil and Paintsil out of Belgium. The duo combined with incumbent Serbian striker Joveljic to form a potent attack that could outscore almost any MLS opponent. But the Galaxy also relied heavily on Puig, their Catalan catalyst and one of MLS’ best players. Puig stayed in last week’s game after injuring his knee, and he even delivered the decisive pass to Joveljic for the game’s only goal. —- AP soccer:

A popular Aberdeen sandwich spot has been put on the market. Upperkrust, located at 44-46 Upperkirkgate in the city-centre, is known for its fine selection of home-made grub and . The lunch-time institution was founded in 2007 by Jackie Wilson and her business partner Sheila Petrie. Like countless other businesses, Upperkrust has struggled with rising costs over the past few years. In August 2022 Mrs Wilson spoke to the The Press and Journal, saying soaring electricity prices were proving a “ ” for the pair, with their bills at the time set to rise from £400 per month to £2,000. She also revealed that to cover costs she would need to charge £30 for each sandwich, with the price of chicken rising by £3 alone. Upperkrust is ‘still going strong’ Located on the ground floor of a traditional granite and slate building, the Upperkrust unit measures 532 square feet. The listing states: “Due to retirement, a well-established and profitable business opportunity has arisen. “There is room to increase turnover of an already thriving business of sit in, takeaway and outside catering.” The agent describes it as an “amazing” sandwich shop which “is still going strong”. “This is due to a strong level of customer base, good reputation and not to mention a great location too,” they continue. “As the business is well established an occupier will benefit from an existing and profitable customer base from the outset.” The listing offers a leasehold interest in the premises “along with the goodwill of the business and all fixtures and fittings”. “A full inventory can be provided to interested parties. Stock will be sold at valuation,” it continues. There are also toilet facilities, while a large storage area within the adjacent Bon Accord shopping centre is also included. The business is being sold for £50,000.NEW YORK (AP) — New York City Mayor Eric Adams appears open to switching parties to become a Republican, as he declined to rule out a future change in political allegiances during a pair of interviews Friday that came as he has increasing warmed to President-elect Donald Trump. The comments from Adams, the top Democrat in one of the country's most liberal cities, riled critics who have grown concerned over the mayor's increasing willingness to throw his support behind Trump and his hardline immigration policies. Adams, who faces federal corruption charges , was a registered Republican in the 1990s and early 2000s but has spent his political career as a Democrat. In a Friday morning interview with the local cable news station NY1, Adams was asked if he would consider a return to the GOP. The Democrat appeared to leave open the possibility of a switch. “The party that’s the most important for me is the American party,” he said. “I’m a part of the American party. I love this country. This is the home of the free, the land of the brave.” In another interview about a half-hour later on PIX11, Adams said he would run for reelection as a Democrat but still appeared to leave some wiggle room for his future. “So no matter what party I’m on or vote on, I’m going to push for the American values," he said. "And I think America has told us, stop the squabbling, leaders, and start leading us out of the crisis that we’re facing.” Adams won office on a centrist platform and has spent significant time as mayor quarreling with the progressive wing of his party. But his rhetoric has taken a noticeable rightward turn in the weeks since Trump's election victory, particularly on immigration, with Adams boosting the president-elect's platform and appearing enthusiastic about the incoming administration. Rather than restricting cooperation with Immigration and Customs Enforcement, as he once promised, Adams recently expressed a willingness to roll back the city’s so-called sanctuary policies, and he plans to meet with Trump’s top border official over concerns about what the mayor said was the “rising illegal alien crime rate in New York City.” He has also praised those in Trump’s orbit, including Elon Musk, who has claimed falsely that Democrats are illegally “importing” migrants to garner votes. “This is a racehorse that wanted to run its right pace and we’ve been holding back that racehorse out of fear of being canceled,” Adams said of the country Tuesday. “And now you have a bunch of people who are not afraid of being canceled.” The shift comes as Adams is trying to fight off an indictment on federal corruption charges while governing the city and gearing up to run for a second term. Adams has pleaded not guilty in his criminal case, in which he has been accused of accepting free or discounted overseas trips and illegal campaign contributions from people looking to gain his influence, including people connected to Turkey or the Turkish government. Adams’ critics have seized on his recent comments about the Trump administration as a move toward self-preservation, accusing the mayor of cozying up to the next president in an effort to secure a pardon in his corruption case. “Eric Adams continues to sound more like he is auditioning for a job in right-wing media than running for reelection in a Democratic primary,” said Zohran Mamdani, a state assembly member who is challenging against Adams in the mayoral primary. “Eric Adams is in City Hall because Democratic voters sent him there. To serve his own narrow self-interests, he is clearly prepared to betray them.” Zellnor Myrie, a state senator who is also challenging Adams in the primary, said “at a time when the Republican Party has never been more out of line with New York values, we need a mayor who isn’t scared to call himself a Democrat.” “Instead of playing footsie with the next president, we need a mayor with the courage to stand up for our city,” Myrie wrote on X. Adams on Friday did distance himself from the Trump administration's potential plans to carry out mass deportations, saying, “You know, I’m not for mass deportation, but I’m not for mass saturation.” Still, the mayor's recent remarks are a major departure from his stance before he took office. In June of 2021, a few weeks before winning the Democratic mayoral primary, Adams spoke to a room full of immigrant New Yorkers about the challenges facing city residents who are in the country illegally. “Too many of our neighbors live in the shadows,” he said at the time, “scarred by the abusive rhetoric and tactics of the Trump era and fearing a denial of their rights.” Izaguirre reported from Albany.

Investors worried about a stock market sell-off may feel the urge to sell out of their positions and run for the exits. But long-term investors know that it's a mistake to overhaul your investing strategy based on emotion. A better approach is to ensure you are invested in companies that suit your risk tolerance and can help you achieve your investment objectives. Dividend stocks are a great way to generate passive income without the need to sell out of a position. Particularly safe options include companies like Lockheed Martin ( LMT -0.21% ) , American Water Works ( AWK -0.69% ) , and Kenvue ( KVUE -0.88% ) , which have recession-resistant business models and emphasize dividend raises. Here's why all three dividend stocks are worth buying in 2025. 1. Lockheed Martin After its stock price reached an all-time high earlier this year, Lockheed Martin and its defense contractor peers have sold off considerably over the last few months, possibly due to valuation concerns. Lockheed's price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio is now back down to 17.6 -- right around its 10-year median P/E of 17.9. Despite a broad portfolio of segments spanning aeronautics, missiles and fire control, rotary and mission systems, and space (mainly satellites), Lockheed Martin tends to have a relatively low valuation because of its mediocre growth prospects. With the vast majority of sales going to the U.S. government, Lockheed's top customer is unlikely to make sweeping changes to the defense budget overnight. However, investors can pencil in slow and steady growth for Lockheed over time, making it a reliable dividend stock. Lockheed just raised its dividend for the 22nd consecutive year and features a yield of 2.7% -- which is considerably higher than the S&P 500 's yield of just 1.2%. Investors worried about a stock market sell-off in 2025 can rest easy knowing that Lockheed has an extensive order backlog and can do well no matter what the economic situation might be. Lockheed finished the quarter ended Sept. 29 with a $166 billion order backlog spread across its four segments. For context, Lockheed is guiding for 2024 sales of $71.25 billion. Add it all up, and Lockheed is a safe dividend stock at a good value to buy in 2025. 2. American Water Works The regulated water utility provides drinking water and wastewater services to customers in California, Hawaii, the Midwest, the Mid-Atlantic, and parts of the South. The business model is fairly straightforward. American Water Works delivers essential services to a growing population and works with regulators and government agencies to set prices so customers aren't overcharged. Still, American Water Works earns enough to maintain operations and invest in new infrastructure. The investment thesis is centered around a growing, healthy dividend. The company targets an annual growth rate of 7% to 9% per year while keeping a payout ratio of 55% to 60%. By keeping a lid on its payout ratio, the company maintains a healthy balance sheet and still has money left over to reinvest in the business. Shares of American Water Works have sold off about 13% in the past three months, bringing the yield back up to 2.5%. American Water Works isn't the type of company that will gush growth. Still, it can do well no matter what the economy or broader stock market are doing, making it a reliable dividend stock to buy in 2025 for risk-averse investors. 3. Kenvue Consumer healthcare company Kenvue is about as boring as American Water Works. However, nothing is boring about the passive income opportunity for Kenvue investors, who can get a 3.8% yield from the stock. The company's brands include recognizable names like Aveeno, Band-Aid, Listerine, Neutrogena, and Tylenol. There's not a lot of new innovation at Kenvue; rather, the idea is to maintain industry leadership of existing brands to foster moderate volume and price increases over time. Kenvue spun off from Johnson & Johnson in August 2023, inheriting J&J's Dividend King streak. Kenvue's first dividend raise as an independent company came on July 25, when it announced a modest 2.5% increase to the quarterly payout. It's not sizable by any means, but Kenvue already has a high yield, even compared to other consumer staples stocks . Activist investor Starboard Value acquired a stake in Kenvue , believing there's value to unlock from its top brands. It remains to be seen if Kenvue will enter a faster pace of dividend growth and buybacks in the future. But Starboard's stake is an encouraging sign that Kenvue has more potential than meets the eye. Kenvue is a high-yield stock worth buying for passive income investors. Demand for Kenvue's products should hold fairly steady no matter what the economy is doing, making it a good choice for folks focused on dividend income and capital preservation rather than capital appreciation.
LOS ANGELES — Until he sustained a season-ending knee injury last week in the Western Conference final, Galaxy playmaker Riqui Puig was having a tremendous season. So I heard. I watched Puig play only twice this year, once in the Galaxy's season-opening 1-1 draw with Inter Miami and a second time in his team's Fourth of July defeat to LAFC at the Rose Bowl. Outside of short highlight clips on social media, I never saw the former Barcelona prospect, not even when he assisted on the goal that sent the Galaxy to the MLS Cup final. That wasn't a reflection of my interest. Some of my friends will make fun of me for publicly admitting this, but I like Major League Soccer. I covered the league in my first job out of college and have casually kept up with it since. I take my children to a couple of games a year. My 11-year-old son owns Galaxy and LAFC hats but no Dodgers or Lakers merchandise. When flipping through channels in the past, if presented with the choice of, say, college football or MLS, I usually watched MLS. But not this year. While the MLS Cup final between the Galaxy and New York Red Bulls will be shown on Fox and Fox Deportes, the majority of games are now exclusively behind a paywall, courtesy of the league's broadcasting deal with Apple. MLS Season Pass subscriptions were reasonably priced — $79 for the entire season for Apple TV+ subscribers, $99 for non-subscribers — but I was already paying for DirecTV Stream, Netflix, Amazon Prime, PlayStation Plus and who knows what else. MLS became a casualty in my household, as well as in many others, and the possibility of being out of sight and out of mind should be a concern for a league that is looking to expand its audience. Which isn't to say the league made a mistake. This was a gamble MLS had to take. Now in the second year of a 10-year, $2.5 billion deal with Apple, MLS did what Major League Baseball is talking about doing, which is to centralize its broadcasting rights and sell them to a digital platform. Regional sports networks have been decimated by cord cutting, making traditional economic models unsustainable. The move to Apple not only increased the league's broadcast revenues — previous deals with ESPN, Fox and Univision were worth a combined $90 million annually, according to multiple reports — but also introduced a measure of uniformity in the league. The quality of the broadcasts are better than they were under regional sports networks. Viewers know where to watch games and when, as every one of them is on Season Pass and most of them are scheduled to start at 7:30 p.m. local time either on Wednesday or Saturday. "That's been fueling our growth and driving our fan engagement," MLS Commissioner Don Garber said Friday at his annual state of the league address. Apple and MLS declined to reveal the number of League Pass subscribers, but the league provided polling figures that indicated 94% of viewers offered positive or neutral reviews of League Pass. The average viewing time for a game is about 65 minutes for a 90-minute game, according to Garber. In other words, the League Pass is well-liked — by the people who have it. The challenge now is to increase that audience. The launch of League Pass last year coincided with the arrival of Lionel Messi, which presumably resulted in a wave of subscriptions. But the league can't count on the appearance of the next Messi; there is only one of him. MLS pointed to how its fans watch sports on streaming devices or recorded television than any other U.S. sports league, as well as how 71% of its fans are under the age of 45. The league also pointed to how it effectively drew more viewers to the Apple broadcast of Inter Miami's postseason opener with a livestream of a "Messi Cam' on TikTok, indicating further collaborations with wide-reaching entities could be in its future. Garber mentioned how Season Pass is available in other countries. The commissioner also made note of how Apple places games every week in front of its paywall. "What we have, really, is a communication problem," Garber said. "This is new, and we've got to work with Apple, we've got to work with our clubs and we've got to work with our partners to get more exposure to what we think is a great product." The greatest benefit to the league could be Apple's vested interest in improving the on-field product. MLS insiders said Apple has not only encouraged teams to sign more high-profile players but also pushed the league to switch to a fall-to-spring calendar more commonplace in other parts of the world, reasoning that doing so would simplify the process of buying and selling players. The on-field product is what matters. The on-field product is why MLS continues to face competition for viewers from overseas leagues. The on-field product is why the league hasn't succeeded in converting every soccer fan into a MLS fan. And ultimately, if casual viewers such as myself are to pay to watch the Galaxy or LAFC on a screen of some kind, the on-field product will be why.
