New Zealand beat Italy in Cane's Test farewellGoogle is ramping up its push into smart glasses and augmented reality headgear, taking on rivals Apple and Meta with help from its sophisticated Gemini artificial intelligence. The internet titan on Thursday unveiled an Android XR operating system created in a collaboration with Samsung, which will use it in a device being built in what is called internally "Project Moohan," according to Google. The software is designed to power augmented and virtual reality experiences enhanced with artificial intelligence, XR vice president Shahram Izadi said in a blog post. "With headsets, you can effortlessly switch between being fully immersed in a virtual environment and staying present in the real world," Izadi said. "You can fill the space around you with apps and content, and with Gemini, our AI assistant, you can even have conversations about what you're seeing or control your device." Google this week announced the launch of Gemini 2.0, its most advanced artificial intelligence model to date, as the world's tech giants race to take the lead in the fast-developing technology. CEO Sundar Pichai said the new model would mark what the company calls "a new agentic era" in AI development, with AI models designed to understand and make decisions about the world around you. Android XR infused with Gemini promises to put digital assistants into eyewear, tapping into what users are seeing and hearing. An AI "agent," the latest Silicon Valley trend, is a digital helper that is supposed to sense surroundings, make decisions, and take actions to achieve specific goals. "Gemini can understand your intent, helping you plan, research topics and guide you through tasks," Izadi said. "Android XR will first launch on headsets that transform how you watch, work and explore." The Android XR release was a preview for developers so they can start building games and other apps for headgear, ideally fun or useful enough to get people to buy the hardware. This is not Google's first foray into smart eyewear. Its first offering, Google Glass, debuted in 2013 only to be treated as an unflattering tech status symbol and met with privacy concerns due to camera capabilities. The market has evolved since then, with Meta investing heavily in a Quest virtual reality headgear line priced for mainstream adoption and Apple hitting the market with pricey Vision Pro "spacial reality" gear. Google plans to soon begin testing prototype Android XR-powered glasses with a small group of users. Google will also adapt popular apps such as YouTube, Photos, Maps, and Google TV for immersive experiences using Android XR, according to Izadi. Gemini AI in glasses will enable tasks like directions and language translations, he added. "It's all within your line of sight, or directly in your ear," Izadi said. gc/dw
TOMS RIVER, N.J. (AP) — A U.S. senator has called for mysterious drones spotted flying at night over sensitive areas in New Jersey and other parts of the Mid-Atlantic region to be “shot down, if necessary,” even as it remains unclear who owns the unmanned aircraft. “We should be doing some very urgent intelligence analysis and take them out of the skies, especially if they’re flying over airports or military bases,” Sen. Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut said Thursday, as concerns about the drones spread across Capitol Hill. People in the New York region are also concerned that the drones may be sharing airspace with commercial airlines, he said, demanding more transparency from the Biden administration. The White House said Thursday that a review of the reported sightings shows that many of them are actually manned aircraft being flown lawfully. White House National Security spokesman John Kirby said there were no reported sightings in any restricted airspace. He said the U.S. Coast Guard has not uncovered any foreign involvement from coastal vessels. “We have no evidence at this time that the reported drone sightings pose a national security or a public safety threat, or have a foreign nexus,” Kirby said, echoing statements from the Pentagon and New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy. Pentagon spokesperson Sabrina Singh has said they are not U.S. military drones. In a joint statement issued Thursday afternoon, the FBI and the Department of Homeland Security said they and their federal partners, in close coordination with the New Jersey State Police, “continue to deploy personnel and technology to investigate this situation and confirm whether the reported drone flights are actually drones or are instead manned aircraft or otherwise inaccurate sightings.” The agencies said they have not corroborated any of the reported sightings with electronic detection, and that reviews of available images appear to show many of the reported drones are actually manned aircraft. “There are no reported or confirmed drone sightings in any restricted air space,” according to the statement. The drones appear to avoid detection by traditional methods such as helicopter and radio, according to a state lawmaker briefed Wednesday by the Department of Homeland Security. The number of sightings has increased in recent days, though officials say many of the objects seen may have been planes rather than drones. It’s also possible that a single drone has been reported more than once. The worry stems partly from the flying objects initially being spotted near the Picatinny Arsenal, a U.S. military research and manufacturing facility, and over President-elect Donald Trump’s golf course in Bedminster. In a post on the social media platform X, Assemblywoman Dawn Fantasia described the drones as up to 6 feet (1.8 meters) in diameter and sometimes traveling with their lights switched off. Drones are legal in New Jersey for recreational and commercial use but are subject to local and Federal Aviation Administration regulations and flight restrictions. Operators must be FAA certified. Most, but not all, of the drones spotted in New Jersey appeared to be larger than those typically used by hobbyists. Sen. Cory Booker of New Jersey said he was frustrated by the lack of transparency, saying it could help spread fear and misinformation. “We should know what’s going on over our skies,” he said Thursday. John Duesler, president of the Pennsylvania Drone Association, said witnesses may be confused about what they are seeing, especially in the dark, and noted it’s hard to know the size of the drones or how close they might be. “There are certainly big drones, such as agricultural drones, but typically they are not the type you see flying around in urban or suburban spaces,” Duesler said Thursday. Duesler said the drones — and those flying them — likely cannot evade detection. “They will leave a radio frequency footprint, they all leave a signature," he said. "We will find out what kind of drones they were, who was flying them and where they were flying them.” Fantasia, a Morris County Republican, was among several lawmakers who met with state police and Homeland Security officials to discuss the sightings from the New York City area across New Jersey and westward into parts of Pennsylvania, including over Philadelphia. It is unknown at this time whether the sightings are related. Duesler said the public wants to know what's going on. “I hope (the government agencies) will come out with more information about this to ease our fears. But this could just be the acts of rogue drone operators, it’s not an ‘invasion’ as some reports have called it,” Duesler said. “I am concerned about this it but not alarmed by it.” Associated Press reporters Mark Scolforo in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania; and reporter Darlene Superville and videojournalists Serkan Gurbuz and Nathan Ellgren in Washington, D.C., contributed to this report.
This is CNBC's live blog covering European markets. European stocks are heading for a mixed open Wednesday with regional market attention focused on an upcoming no-confidence vote in France's parliament, the National Assembly. 24/7 San Diego news stream: Watch NBC 7 free wherever you are The vote is expected to take place this evening after lawmakers have debated two motions of no-confidence, tabled by the leftwing New Popular Front alliance and rightwing National Rally party, against Prime Minister Michel Barnier's minority government. The motions come after Barnier used special constitutional powers on Monday to pass a contested budget bill without a parliamentary vote. National Rally has already said it will support the motion brought by its left-wing rivals, but will also support its own motion of no-confidence. It's highly likely that Barnier's government will collapse after the vote. On Wednesday, European services activity data is due and the OECD releases its latest economic outlook.

Get The Complete Scope Of The Report @ https://www.thebusinessresearchcompany.com/report/psoriatic-arthritis-treatments-global-market-report Market Drivers and Trends: The rise in the prevalence of psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis boosted the growth of the psoriatic arthritis treatment market. Psoriasis (PSO) and psoriatic arthritis (PsA) are inflammatory disorders that can severely impair health and quality of life. Psoriasis is associated with inflammatory arthritis, known as psoriatic arthritis (PsA), with an incidence of 30% in psoriatic patients. For instance, in June 2021, according to the National Psoriasis Foundation, a US-based healthcare agency, more than 8 million people in the United States and 125 million people worldwide suffered from psoriasis, a chronic immune-mediated illness. Furthermore, in the USA, about 30% of people with psoriasis also develop psoriatic arthritis. Thus, an increase in the prevalence of psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis drives market growth. The development of novel drugs such as Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors for treating psoriatic arthritis is shaping the market. Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors are orally administered small molecules that are emerging as a novel treatment for psoriatic arthritis patients. There are three JAK inhibitors approved for the treatment of autoimmune diseases: tofacitinib, baricitinib, and upadacitinib. Among them, Xeljanz (tofacitinib) and Xeljanz (tofacitinib) XR are the first Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors that have been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the European Medicines Agency (EMA). They are used to treat adult patients with active psoriatic arthritis (PsA), who have had an inadequate response or intolerance to methotrexate or other disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs). In June 2020, AbbVie, a leading US-based pharmaceutical company, announced that it had applied for the approval of upadacitinib (RINVOQ), a JAK inhibitor, with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the European Medicines Agency (EMA).

Cultural Event: Cybernetic Existentialism on exhibit in more Museums 12-20-2024 11:44 PM CET | Leisure, Entertainment, Miscellaneous Press release from: Getnews / PR Agency: Headlineplus It has been forty years since the birth of the art movement, yet its relevance remains unparalleled in the contemporary landscape. Image: https://www.globalnewslines.com/uploads/2024/12/189767e0bb6f67e5d440810b820eb52c.jpg Elena Garas The esteemed scholar Elena Garas, an expert in Cybernetic Existentialism-a groundbreaking artistic movement led by the Italian Ruffo Caselli (1932/2020) -announced the upcoming highly-anticipated exhibition at the Nizhny Museum of Fine Arts in Russia. The inaugural ceremony is set for January 14th, promising to showcase iconic artworks that explore the intersection of technology and philosophy, inviting visitors to engage with a thought-provoking experience unlike any other. Elena Garas has delved deeply into the works of Caselli, known as the painter of microchips, particularly those from the 1970s and 1980s crafted in Milan, which have graced prestigious galleries and cultural centers in North and South America. These canvasses blend humanity and technology, offering a profound reflection on the future. Garas has brought these works to life through exhibitions and conferences held in emblematic venues, such as the Historical Museum of the Urals in Chelyabinsk and the Historical Museum in Uray, located in the autonomous region of Khanty-Mansiysk. Image: https://www.globalnewslines.com/uploads/2024/12/85383e826e0e72cbdc2e9fb151812bde.jpg Elena Garas at the historical Museum of Urals in Chelyabinsk These events have garnered unanimous acclaim from both audiences and critics, enhanced by the participation of renowned experts like Oksana Yurievna, director of the Strelets Museum, and Zaitsev Dmitry Stanislavovich, a doctorate in cultural studies. Garas has skillfully blended an academic approach with engaging storytelling, making the works of Caselli not only accessible but also stimulating for a diverse audience. Through her efforts, she has created a bridge between contemporary art and the public, fostering a deeper understanding and appreciation of these significant contributions to the art world. One of the most significant exhibitions took place at the Chelyabinsk Museum, known for housing fragments of the meteorite that struck the city in 2013. "This connection between the sky and the earth, between science and art, perfectly reflects the message of Cybernetic Existentialism. From the suggestion of the meteorite to the universe of Caselli. I still remember the indescribable enthusiasm when Ruffo's first canvases arrived from Milan at the Italian Consulate,' Garas recounts. 'Everyone wanted to explore the details of these works to immerse themselves in Caselli's infinite universe.' Image: https://www.globalnewslines.com/uploads/2024/12/83a1f9b5adce5ce5d7150f54c1ce5a71.jpg Maestro Caselli was a precursor. That is the first word that comes to mind to refer to his inexhaustible work and the mark it has left. A precursor is an advance, a pioneer, a person with the ability to observe and intuit what others are not yet able to see or experience.

In 1983, Ruffo Caselli's first art exhibit in the United States, titled "Chips are us," featured the captivating espression "Cybernetic Existentialism" as a subtitle. The sponsor, the Manhattan gallery and cultural center founded by Carmen Gallo, promoted this enigmatic phrase setting for the first time the stage for a discourse on the fusion of technology and the human experience.

IMF Approves US$360 Million Disbursement for Ghana as Economy Stabilizes
Innovations Shaping the Future of Airway ManagementEven in this banner season for military academy football — complete with winning streaks, national rankings and a conference championship — the biggest goal remains the same. For Army: Beat Navy. For Navy: Beat Army. With the college football landscape changing at a furious rate, the significance of this matchup adds a dose of tradition to mid-December, amid all that talk about the transfer portal and the new expanded playoff. "We've had a good year. You make it a great year by winning this game coming up on Saturday. Frankly, that's just the way it goes around here," Army coach Jeff Monken said. "It's a game and a season really all of its own. We don't apologize for talking about it all the time. We talk about it all the time, and it's 365 days a year." Saturday in Landover, Maryland, is the 125th matchup between Army and Navy, and although these two programs are long removed from their days winning national titles and Heisman Trophies, this is a historic moment in the rivalry. The Black Knights and Midshipmen have combined for 19 wins this season, their highest total ever entering this game. Army (11-1) is ranked 19th in the AP poll after beating Tulane last week to win the American Athletic Conference — the first league title of any kind in the team's 134-year history. Navy (8-3) was ranked as well earlier this season after starting with six straight victories. "I knew we were going to be an improved football team," Navy coach Brian Newberry said. "Didn't know exactly what that was going to look like. I think certainly we've improved in a lot of different areas. I'm excited about the season we've had." This was Army's first season in the AAC, putting the Black Knights and Midshipmen in the same league, although their annual matchup is considered a nonconference game. For a while, there was a chance the teams could meet twice, with a conference championship clash coming before the regularly scheduled Army-Navy game, but that didn't happen. Their most prominent common opponent came from outside the league. Notre Dame handed both Navy and Army its first loss, beating the Midshipmen 51-14 and the Black Knights 49-14. Within the AAC, both teams beat Temple, UAB and East Carolina. Army beat Tulane and Rice and Navy lost to those two teams. Army and Navy also each won its nonconference game against Air Force. Those victories over Air Force mean this season's Commander-In-Chief's Trophy comes down to the Army-Navy game. It's the first time since 2017 that both teams enter this game with a shot at the trophy. It's also the first time since 2017 that both teams enter the game with bowl bids secured. Navy faces Oklahoma in the Armed Forces Bowl and Army takes on Marshall in the Independence Bowl. This year's Army-Navy game is at the Washington Commanders' home stadium in Landover. It was also held there in 2011. This is the first time the game has been in Maryland since Baltimore hosted it in 2016. Baltimore is also up next in 2025. Army quarterback Bryson Daily has 29 rushing touchdowns this season, which is tied for the FBS lead with running back Ashton Jeanty, Boise State's Heisman finalist. Only one QB in FBS history has run for more TDs in a season than Daily. That was Navy's Keenan Reynolds, with 31 in 2013. "You come here to play in this game. The biggest stage possible, millions of people watching and a sold-out NFL stadium. It's awesome," Daily said. "None of the games that happened before this matter. We're going into this game like we're 0-0, they're 0-0 because that's just how you have to come into this game." Navy's closest game this season — win or lose — was a 56-44 win over Memphis. The Midshipmen are the only FBS team that hasn't had a game this season decided by eight points or fewer. AP Sports Writer Stephen Whyno contributed to this report.
