The sports world is full of intense rivalries, some of which become legendary and are written in history. Some important rivalries were: Larry Bird with Magic Johnson, Muhammad Ali with Joe Frazier, Federer with Nadal, among others.
The following story is about one of those rivalries that ends with a champion.

Hello friends, I had a goal this year, and it was to start a podcast on Hive where real people can come talk on different topics on health, finance, relationships, gaming, and so on with real-life experience.
The first episode aired today and I would like your support. I hope to have you on my talk show. You can check my blog for the first episode.
In the Vibes Contest, even previous 1st place winners (not all of them but some) have given last place performances (even since winning 1st place). Moral of the story, keep trying & giving your best. Not every entry is gold. 🥇 #vibes #cent
But Mr. Vladeck said Mr. Trump has exceeded even the most far-reaching bounds of that theory, and he expects Mr. Trump’s legal losing streak to continue.
“These assertions are already faring poorly in the courts, and I suspect the Supreme Court, or at least a majority thereof, will be as skeptical as lower courts have been,” he wrote.
The one case in which Mr. Trump has prevailed involved a request by immigrant rights groups, on behalf of migrants, to restart the CBP One app. That is a Biden administration program that allowed unauthorized migrants to be “paroled” into U.S. despite lacking a legal visa, as long as they prescheduled their arrivals at the border.
UMass will pay Noah Lee, student who made half-court shot
UMass said it would pay a student the $10,000 prize for a halftime promotion at a women’s basketball game after a dispute with an insurance company over whether he stepped over the line when he made a half-court shot.
Noah Lee was selected for the contest on Wednesday that required him to make a layup, free throw, 3-pointer and half-court shot in 25 seconds. He made them all, but the school said the insurance company handling the promotion declined the payout.
“After their review of the four camera angles we provided, they determined the half-court shot was disqualified as it was not taken behind the half-court line,” the school said Friday. “We weren’t satisfied with that outcome and arrived at the decision to provide Noah with both a $10,000 award and a host of additional UMass athletics benefits.”
In a statement emailed to The Associated Press on Friday night, Odds On Promotions, said the university went ahead with its decision without ever filing a claim. The Reno, Nevada, prize indemnification insurance company said it had not completed its 30-day claim verification process and no decision had been made.
U.S. bombers, Philippines jets fly over disputed shoal claimed by China
Two Air Force B-1 bombers flew over a disputed South China Sea shoal together with Philippines jet fighters, in the new Trump administration’s first show of force to China this week.
A day later, U.S., Australian, Japanese and Philippines naval forces conducted joint operations inside Manila’s exclusive economic zone in the sea, the Indo-Pacific Command said.
The bombers and three Philippines FA-50s conducted a joint air patrol and intercept exercise on Tuesday, said Cmdr. Matthew Comer, a spokesman for the Hawaii-based Indo-Pacific Command. The flights were the first conducted since President Trump was inaugurated last month and are a continuation of regular U.S. aircraft and naval deployments in an area that China claims is its maritime territory.
The Indo-Pacific command said in a statement that the naval exercises showed “a collective commitment to strengthen regional and international cooperation in support of a free and open Indo-Pacific.”
The maneuvers underscore “our shared commitments to upholding the right to freedom of navigation and overflight, other lawful uses of the sea and international airspace, as well as respect for maritime rights under international law.”
The area was in the west Philippines Sea and claimed as part of Manila’s exclusive economic zone. The South China Sea is a strategic waterway that sees more than $3 trillion annually in shipping.
The B-1B bombers that conducted the operation were non-nuclear variants that can carry a range of missiles and bombs, including the Joint Standoff Weapon and Long Range Anti-Ship Missile. They also can deliver the Joint Direct Attack Munition, a guided aerial bomb.
The U.S. government has repeatedly invoked the U.S.-Philippines mutual defense treaty regarding Chinese harassment at Scarborough Shoal and other Spratly Islands. However, the U.S. military has stopped short of providing security aid to Philippine naval and civilian vessels involved in resupplying the grounded ship at Scarborough that Manila maintains in a bid to asserts its sovereignty claims.
China has claimed some 90% of the South China Sea as its territory and the Philippines claims the Spratly Islands, where Scarborough Shoal is located, as its sovereign territory.
In August, two Chinese warplanes flew close to a Philippine Air Force turboprop plane patrolling over Scarborough Shoal and dropped flares in the flight path of the plane, putting the crew at risk, military officials said.
According to local news reports, Mr. Trudeau delivered his comments behind closed doors to business and labor leaders, but a loudspeaker mistakenly carried them.
“Mr. Trump has it in mind that the easiest way to do it is absorbing our country and it is a real thing. In my conversations with him on…,” Mr. Trudeau said of making Canada a U.S. state before the microphone cut out, according to reports.
“They’re very aware of our resources, of what we have and they very much want to be able to benefit from those,” Mr. Trudeau reportedly said.
In addition to DEI initiatives, USAID spent millions to promote media outlets in other countries:
• $20 million to produce an Iraqi version of Sesame Street.
• $8 million to buy subscriptions to Politico Pro.
Advertisement
• $2.1 million to the British Broadcasting System to “strengthen the media ecosystem in Libya.”
• $1.3 million for Arab and Jewish photographers.
• $1.5 million to rebuild the Cuban “media ecosystem.”
USAID also has a $150 billion climate strategy aimed at building “an equitable world with net-zero greenhouse gas emissions” by 2030. However, it is unclear how much of that money was spent.
Authorities said a woman shot another woman in the chest inside the business, which features arcade games and laser tag.
Police said the suspected shooter, who wasn’t identified, was taken into custody and the victim was rushed to the hospital. The wounded woman is expected to survive.
“It was packed, there were a lot of patrons still here when the shots rang out,” Sheriff Weekly said. “Very dangerous situation. We do know we had multiple rounds that were fired inside the business.”
The sheriff said he believes the armed man outside the venue was somehow connected to the shooting inside the business, but investigators haven’t determined a clear link.
On Saturday, Axios reported that OpenAI's Altman will this week warn world leaders they need to widen their AI mindset so that, rather than just focusing on risk — as has often been the case in Europe — leaders will instead look to embrace growth and opportunity.
The emergence of Chinese firm DeepSeek's breakthrough open-source AI model R1 in recent weeks has stirred debates in the industry around the huge capital expenditures companies are committing toward computing infrastructure to train their systems.
Lee is one of the largest newspaper publishers in the U.S. and provides publishing technology and website services to 72 publications, including the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, which broke news of the story on Friday.
The Post-Dispatch said while it had not missed any days of publication, most of this week’s newspaper editions were affected. Some newspapers were smaller on some days, the Post-Dispatch said.
“In turn, this brings me to the second point of embracing a pragmatic attitude instead of an ideological one when it comes to AI governance. AI is poised to be a powerful technology that can help us to live and work better if used well,” she said.
“So instead of hindering the upstream exploration of research of this still very young technology, we should put more focus on the practical applications so that we can ensure its benevolent usage to guard against harmful outcomes,” she added.
According to Fei-Fei, historians will look back at this period in time and call it the first true era of AI, which could have “civilizational consequences.”
I approached A Heroic King as a person knowledgeable on the subject matter but curious about how the author would weave fact and fiction together. Would the story be convincing? Spartan names take some getting used to and I found myself struggling through the first two dozen pages as I tried to get to know the many characters – both historically familiar and unfamiliar. Knowledge of the vocabulary of Sparta was certainly helpful during this early part of the read.
Once the names were locked in, things moved along at a fine rhythm. There were many wonderful scenes -- Leonidas' election, the sacrificial ambassador’s trip to see Xerxes, and Gorgo’s shopping trip in Athens, to name a few. For a historical novel to be successful, you have to feel seamlessly transported back in time by the author. Then you can live the story and absorb the history along the way. Helena has successfully met this requirement by accurately capturing the lives and experiences of the people of Lacedaemon.
The DeepMind CEO said that the company's Gemini 2.0 Flash models, which Google this week released to everyone, are more efficient than DeepSeek's model.
DeepSeek's claims around its low cost and the chips it uses have been questioned by experts, who think the cost of development for the Chinese firm's models is higher.
"This summit isn't just about AI—it's about influence," Capone told CNBC on Friday. "Expect a strategic messaging war as U.S., French, and UK AI leaders downplay DeepSeek's relevance while China works to prove it's not just catching up — it's setting the pace."
"AI diplomacy is now as critical as AI development. The power struggle won't be about who builds the best model; it'll be about who controls the AI narrative," he added.
Leonidas of Sparta: A Heroic King is the third installment in the trilogy covering the life of the famous Spartan king, written by Helena Schrader. I have not had a chance to read the first two books but jumped at the chance to read this one because I wanted to see how Helena would approach the Battle of Thermopylae.
Helena Schrader graduated with honors in History from the University of Michigan and has earned a PhD in History from the University of Hamburg. She has published several books since 1993, both fiction and non-fiction. Among the former are several historical novels including six on ancient Sparta. She maintains a blog titled Sparta Reconsidered.
DeepSeek said total training costs for its newest AI model amounted to $5.6 million. However, doubts have been raised about DeepSeek's claims.
Last month, semiconductor research firm SemiAnalysis estimated that DeepSeek's hardware spend is higher than $500 million over the company's history, adding that the startup's research and development and ownership costs are significant.
On Sunday, Google DeepMind's Hassabis said DeepSeek's AI model is "probably the best work" he's seen out of China — but added that, from a technology point of view, it was not a big change.
I was very annoyed when I found out I could not sell some of my #bitcoin, I had to sell a minimum of $75 worth of it. I was not very happy about this. Why do they have these minimums for transactions? #crypto
So, with the nature of crypto and how it works, you have to pay a network fee to use these blockchain networks. You are paying people like me who run the hardware needed to process these transactions and keep the network secure.
If you are using Ethereum, SOlana, etc, you have to have ETH or SOL in your wallet to pay these fees. They call it gas fees. It’s like needing gas in your car to make it go, same thing with those chains.
BTC, LTC, DOGE, Monero, etc, they all use the same coin for fees because it’s only one coin in the ecosystem, but with like Ethereum, ETH is the gas coin to trade or transact on that network, no matter what token you are using.
Hive uses resource credits, which means you need Hive staked in your wallet to use the chain. The more you need to do, the more you need to stake.

As a community how to be successful,
this applies to every other community in the hive blockchain it applies to every other community.
We gonna be breaking it part by part
so that we help us to understand it.
Because we know those gonna run everything straight up on one video.
So some persons don't like watching very long video, so just gonna cut it in a way that it will be brief and educative.
it will at the same time pass the message across to everyone.
Take it as your own business, I discover that some persons they will say
like most of the new users and some old users.
Some of them they will say uh
I don't like how they run things yeah,
you just see them today, they will come today like see them for one week
some 2, 3 days and at the end they run away.
Nothing is chasing them, nothing is chasing them okay!
What happened is, the mindset that they use in coming, that is what is affecting them.

#tv #scifi #tvshows #series
ever tried reading the bible?
100's of stories weaved together and pointing to one thing
Not in that way but some verses for knowledge purpose.
Let’s normalize the #newlion tag for new lions
If a new lion doesn’t know, tell them
If they don’t use it, you can also rethread their thead and add the tag
Any way there could be some kind of indicator next to the user name to help everyone know who is new?
Kind of like the premium icon. Maybe have it show up for the first 30 days or however long then disappear.
this is a really good idea
Let me dive into this
If people could easily identify them, it would likely increase the upvotes and interaction that they recieved. Maybe help retention and integration. 😁
This is a brilliant idea.
Could also do the same with each community--like a DASH symbol or whatever.
Good to know, I'll tag him/her if I find one. Cool thing
Alright sir..
I'm a #newlion if I'm 2 weeks in
I haven't seen many new lions lately
is this a new tag? For the inleo threads

woah I did not expect a first half like this
Looks like crypto this year, I didn't expect it to start with a dip
I was very annoyed when I found out I could not sell some of my #bitcoin, I had to sell a minimum of $75 worth of it. I was not very happy about this. Why do they have these minimums for transactions? #crypto
Gas fees, probably
Haha I still don't know all the lingo.
So, with the nature of crypto and how it works, you have to pay a network fee to use these blockchain networks. You are paying people like me who run the hardware needed to process these transactions and keep the network secure.
If you are using Ethereum, SOlana, etc, you have to have ETH or SOL in your wallet to pay these fees. They call it gas fees. It’s like needing gas in your car to make it go, same thing with those chains.
BTC, LTC, DOGE, Monero, etc, they all use the same coin for fees because it’s only one coin in the ecosystem, but with like Ethereum, ETH is the gas coin to trade or transact on that network, no matter what token you are using.
Hive uses resource credits, which means you need Hive staked in your wallet to use the chain. The more you need to do, the more you need to stake.
Oh thanks for the info, I will have to learn more about this
Yeah man, no problem! Never be afraid to ask questions. Someone may think you are stupid, but most of us are here to help!
I have encountered some people here who are very mean when it comes to questions, but that should not stop us from asking.
What exchange were you using for that?
Does it fit you..?

Hello friend. Good to see you again on Threads.
To upload shorts on threads, you need to make sure that your video does not exceed 60 seconds. Then you click on the video icon, select the video you need to upload, put the title and description and click the upload button.
It takes about 5 minutes for the video to show up. Let me know if my explanation was helpful.

$BTC likes to slide, but will it be a dive for another rise or something else. Let's watch the sideways show..

This is the part where it dances around a figure for a while and in a couple of days or week, makes a huge rise or a dip

Coins that do not have any utility is like an inflated balloon. Think of meme coins and their history of survival, many dies within a week.

A lot of meme tokens are scams ready to be rugged.

True, that's why meme coins have lost their popularity.
