Treesa Jolly/Gayatri Gopichand were eliminated in the semi-finals

India’s Treesa Jolly and Gayatri Gopichand were eliminated from the semifinals of the 2024 Macau Open after losing in three games to China’s Hung En-Tzu and Hsieh Pei Shan of Taipei in the women’s doubles semifinals.

This was the second semi-final of the season for the Indian pair after the Singapore Open in June, and they have yet to reach a final on the BWF World Tour this year.

Ranked 23rd in the world, Treesa-Gayatri bounced back well from a loss in the first game to force a decider but failed to show consistency, losing 17-21, 21-16, 10-21 in an hour-long match.

They had started the game well, trading points for points with the Taipei duo before Hung and Hsieh took a 13-8 lead in the first game. But the Indian pair pulled back and leveled the game at 15-15. However, Hung-Hsieh took six of the next eight points and secured the opening game.

Three-Gayatri, seeded third at the 2024 Macau Open, showed more urgency in the next game to force a decider. However, they looked anything but good in the decisive third game, as the Taipei pair held their own and took advantage of the game to reach the final.

Week 5 of the 2024 college football season is underway and that can only mean conference play is in full swing. While the list is highlighted by four matchups with ranked teams, it’s no bigger than No. 2 Georgia’s trip to No. 4 Alabama. Not only are the Bulldogs and Crimson Tide serious SEC contenders, they are also both early favorites in the national championship race. It’s also a great opportunity for first-year Alabama coach Kalen DeBoer to get a decisive win early in his tenure.

However, there are still numerous games on the program before this evening encounter. No. 20 Oklahoma State and No. 23 Kansas State begin a showdown at noon ET that will go a long way toward determining the final Big 12 standings. A surging No. 15 Louisville team travels to No. 16 Notre Dame at 3:30 p.m. in a contest that appears crucial to both teams’ playoff hopes, while No. 9 Penn State travels at 7:30 p.m No. 19 Illinois hosts The game could change the entire Big Ten landscape depending on the outcome.

Be sure to stick with CBS Sports all day Saturday for college football coverage from the opening game. Let’s take a look at our expert picks for the best plays in Week 5.

Odds via SportsLine Consensus | Always east

7:30 p.m. | Peacock — Michigan State will be the best team Ohio State has played yet, but I don’t think we’ve gotten a real glimpse of Ohio State’s potential. We’ve only seen a facade of what the Buckeyes’ new offense will look like under Chip Kelly, and defensive coordinator Jim Knowles hasn’t been forced to dig deep into his playbook either. This last part concerns me when it comes to Aidan Chiles and his propensity to turn the ball over. Pick: Ohio State -24 – Tom Fornelli

No. 19 Illinois at No. 9 Penn State

7:30 p.m. | NBC, fubo (Try for free) — The Fighting Illini have been underestimated by oddsmakers at every turn, as they boast a 3-0-1 record against the spread and cover the spread by an average of 10.9 points per game. This is another point where Illinois’ chances of staying afloat and succeeding are underestimated, and while Penn State is the deserved favorite to win, Illinois has a good chance of keeping it closer than that Experts believe. Pick: Illinois +17.5 – Chip Patterson

No. 2 Georgia and No. 4 Alabama

7:30 p.m. | ABC, fubo (Try for free) — There are plenty of storylines in this game, but perhaps the most interesting will be seeing how real these two teams are. Georgia looked very shaky against Kentucky, while Alabama hasn’t played anyone yet. Both should be contenders for the SEC Championship and the CFP, but we’ll know a lot more after Saturday night. Bryant-Denny Stadium should be rocking, but the Bulldogs still have the slightest advantage here. A close win against Kentucky and a bye week gave Kirby Smart enough time to get the message across to his team – and develop a winning game plan – which proves the difference here. Selection: Georgia -2 –John Talty

No. 20 Oklahoma State and No. 23 Kansas State

lunch | ABC, fubo (Try for free) — The battle between these two Big 12 contenders will come down to the ground game. Ollie Gordon II was positioned as the nation’s leading rusher, but Kansas State’s three-headed monster of Giddens, Johnson and Edwards quickly overshadowed the talented Cowboys. OSU proved against Utah that it takes a consistent running game to compete against the Big 12’s best. The Wildcats will prove to be too fast and too good. Pick: Kansas State -5 – Shehan Jeyarajah

3:30 p.m. | CBS, Paramount+ with ShowtimeCBSSports.com, CBS Sports App – Wisconsin is off to a shaky start to the 2024 season, highlighted by two lackluster performances in the first two weeks against Western Michigan and South Dakota. Braedyn Locke is 1-2 in his career as a starter and this is a great opportunity for the USC defense to bounce back after a poor performance on that side of the ball against Michigan. Moss looked like a Heisman dark horse in the first month of the season, and a strong performance would immediately put him back in the conversation. Selection: USC -15.5 –Cameron Salerno

No. 15 Louisville and No. 16 Notre Dame

3:30 p.m. | Peacock — Notre Dame has started a new chapter since its home loss to Northern Illinois in Week 2. The Fighting Irish showed what they’re capable of in a 66-7 win at Purdue on Sept. 28 and will be motivated to reward their fans with a win over a top-15 Louisville team. This is by far the toughest defense Louisville has ever faced, and the Cardinals may struggle to create the explosive plays that gave them the win over Georgia Tech last week. Look for Notre Dame’s defense to frustrate Louisville and eventually break through with the help of Leonard’s dual-threat ability. Selection: Notre Dame -7 – David Cobb

The smart ring category is hot right now, but is Apple ready to get in on the action on its own?

In the last few months we’ve seen the launch of the Samsung Galaxy Ring and the RingConn Smart Ring, while the Oura Ring (now in its third generation) is the long-standing frontrunner in the race for the best smart rings. Rumors that Apple might be tempted to join the party have been circulating for a few years now, and it appears that Apple is at least somewhat in the planning stages of this form factor.

Here we have compiled everything we know and think we know about the so-called Apple Ring: the leaks and rumors that have surfaced, the predicted price, the possible release date and more. We’ve also added some of the features and specs we’d like to see from the Apple Ring.

Apple Ring: in a nutshell

• What is that? A supposed smart ring made by Apple

• When might it appear? TBC, but not before 2025

• How much could it cost? Expect to pay $399 / £399 / AU$750 or more

Apple Ring: price and release date predictions

We don’t have much indication of how much the Apple Ring might cost, but we can take a look at some of the other options on the market. The Samsung Galaxy Ring is available for $399 / £399 and up (Australian pricing is yet to be confirmed), while the Oura Ring 3 is available for $299 / £299 and up (and is not currently available in Australia).

That gives you an idea of ​​the price points we’re talking about. Apple wants to stay competitive, but (as its best iPhones show) it’s not afraid to put a price premium on its products. If we had to guess, we’d say the Apple Ring will be slightly more expensive than its competitors from Samsung and Oura.

Also keep in mind that the best Oura Ring features require a monthly subscription ($5.99 / £5.99 per month). Apple already has the Fitness Plus program that you can sign up for if you own an Apple Watch ($9.99 / £9.99 / AU$14.99 per month). Therefore, it is quite possible that this is also an optional extra for the smart ring.

When it comes to a release date, 2024 and even 2025 seem unlikely given the frequency of leaks and rumors we’ve seen so far; It doesn’t appear that a launch is imminent. We didn’t see an Apple Ring alongside the Apple Watch 10 at the It’s Glowtime event in September 2024, but there’s a chance it could join the Apple Watch 11 in September 2025 if the device shows up as expected.

Apple Ring: Leaks and Rumors

The Apple Ring rumors go back a long way, at least to 2020. A patent filed by Apple this year showed that a smart ring would be used to control other devices – with the idea that you could potentially control the channels on your Apple TV could switch by tapping your ring. Of course, patents aren’t always a guarantee of future products, but they show what companies are thinking about and researching.

In 2023, Apple again filed smart ring patents that positioned its potential device as a type of controller for other devices. It seems that each Apple Ring that appears will not only focus on health and fitness, but will also give you new ways to control features on your other Apple devices.

It seems that Apple isn’t limiting itself to finger-mounted wearables either. Another patent from 2023 revealed plans for a type of apple anklet that could be worn around the ankle or around the neck. The success of the Apple Watch is obviously causing Apple to think about how you can track more fitness metrics.

Meanwhile, an industry report out of South Korea suggested in early 2024 that an Apple smart ring was on the way to take on the likes of Samsung and Oura. However, since nothing has emerged in the past few months, either the report’s sources were mistaken or Apple has changed its mind about the future product launch schedule.

We saw another sign that an Apple Ring could be on the way: an Apple survey sent to Apple Watch owners asking how many of them currently wear a smart ring alongside their smartwatch. It may be a bit of a stretch to use this as evidence of an Apple Ring, but it’s not nothing.

And that’s it for the Apple Ring rumors – no hint of pricing, specs, design or anything like that. The lack of details in the rumors suggests that a release could still be some way off, although there was enough excitement at this point to suggest that it is at least being considered.

Apple Ring: What we want to see

If an Apple Ring is indeed on the way, what will it look like – and how might it beat existing models? If Apple engineers are reading this, here’s what we want from an Apple Smart Ring.

1. Excellent battery life

Of course, this shows up on every wish list for every device, but decent battery life is a must – especially since the standard Apple Watch won’t last more than a day or two without a charge. In fact, that could be a major selling point for the Apple Ring: continue to track your steps and other activities while your Apple Watch is charging.

2. Premium sleep tracking

Speaking of charging the Apple Watch, many users charge their watch overnight. This means that the smartwatch often cannot be used for sleep tracking, and we hope the Apple Ring can do this very well. In addition, due to its smaller size and lighter weight, a smart ring is better suited for tracking movements while you sleep.

3. Lots of software features without a subscription

We’ve already mentioned Apple Fitness Plus, but we hope that many of the features of an Apple Ring are available without a subscription – like with the Apple Watch. And for those who want additional features like fitness videos, workout plan customizations, in-session metrics, and more, there could be an additional subscription option.

4. A superior design

There are really only so many ways to design a smart ring, but we hope Apple gives the Apple Ring the same aesthetic flavor as shown on the iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch. We’re thinking about a super slim and super light form factor, a choice of different colors and a smart ring that is one of the most comfortable on the market.

5. Seamless integration of the Apple ecosystem

Apple usually does this perfectly, with iPhones, iPads, Macs and Apple Watches constantly getting new integrations and connections – so we’re hoping this extends to Apple Ring too. It’s unlikely that Apple wants the Smart Ring to replace the Apple Watch, and in fact it could be a useful screen for it (remember, Oura also has an Apple Watch app).

PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) — A large reward is still being offered in hopes that someone will come forward with information about a murder following the Puerto Rican Day Parade in 2008.

Matt Novak Sr. says 16 years is long enough. It’s time to bring his son’s murderers to justice.

“I can’t believe these guys are still running through the streets. I have to tell you, I get angrier and angrier every time this time of year,” he said.

On Sunday, September 28, 2008, 24-year-old Matthew Novak and two friends were on their way home from Philadelphia’s annual Puerto Rican Day Parade when their car broke down at 6th and Green Streets in Northern Liberties.

Surveillance video shows a blue Chevy Impala with three men pulling up to help.

Novak got in the car with them and they drove to 13th and Fairmount. When Novak got out of the car, they shot him in the leg. He later died in hospital.

The blue Chevy had New Jersey tags, but the license plate is difficult to read.

“I would just want someone to come forward,” Novak said.

The Citizens Crime Commission is offering a $45,000 reward for the arrest and information of the person responsible. All you have to do is call 215-546-TIPS (8477). All calls remain anonymous.

Novak says the sudden loss of his son still haunts him.

“We were very close. We were friends,” he said. “I miss that a lot. I really do.”

So what did the mild-mannered, normally reserved couturier do? He immediately challenged Sweezey to a fight and won.

Couturier doesn’t drop the gloves often, and his teammates and coaches have noticed.

“Gigantic. That’s how teams are built, right? It’s a brotherhood. You play for each other,” Flyers assistant coach Brad Shaw said, describing how Couturier’s fight affected the bench and the locker room. “Absolutely perfect leadership at this time. Just what we needed. Not surprisingly, we scored shortly after.”

Just 14 seconds away from the struggling Majors, Flyers defenseman Rasmus Ristolainen tied the game at 1-1 by answering Hampus Lindholm’s opening goal with a laser beam from the right circle.

Even though Bruins youngster Matt Poitras regained the lead with a shorthanded goal early in the second period, the Flyers began to find their game. The power play – especially Michkov’s unity – created positive dynamics.

And then Michkov took over.

Less than two minutes after Poitras’ goal, the Flyers had another power play when Poitras hooked Scott Laughton.

With Travis Konecny, Michkov rotated from top to bottom, sneaking behind Bruins defenseman Mason Lohrei and placing himself directly on the far goal post. Just seconds later, Olle Lycksell’s brilliant pass from the left circle hit Michkov’s stick and bounced into the net, setting up an effortless power play goal.

“Yeah, I’m just trying to feed him,” Lycksell said with a big smile about his support. “And I think he kind of knows the spots where he should be to turn any situation into a good scoring opportunity, and I feel like he really showed that tonight with the goal there.”

“He’s in the post, he’s kind of getting open out there and that’s not his position to begin with. He knows where he has to be to score the goals and that’s great.”

Couturier, who played on a line with Michkov and Konecny ​​on Saturday night, was more impressed with some of the things Michkov did without the puck.

“He wants to score, he wants the puck and he works hard for it,” Couturier added. “That’s what you want to see in a young man. He just works hard.”

“He’s a cheating guy. He goes into these puck battles and thinks, ‘Oh man, it’s too bad we’re not winning this game,’ and then he leaves the puck battle with the puck,” Shaw joked.

ORLANDO, Fla. – Travis Hunter wore custom cleats in Saturday night’s game against Central Florida – a pair of gold-colored shoes with a graphic on them depicting the mountains and trees of Boulder, Colorado.

They had quite a night. First, he scored a 23-yard touchdown there in the first quarter. He then made an interception and flashed it in a Heisman Trophy pose in the third quarter. After his Colorado team won the game 48-21, Colorado’s two-way superstar even took those cleats off his feet and gave them to someone in the stands here at FBC Mortgage Stadium.

“That’s him, man,” Colorado football coach Deion Sanders said of Hunter’s big night.

There was a lot of discussion about it Rebirth of Jurassic Worldthe fourth film in the series and the seventh part overall Jurassic Park Saga. While many of the finer details of the dino flick have been largely kept under wraps, some story details have been revealed. This was also confirmed by franchise producer Frank Marshall at the beginning of the summer J-World 4 Filming picked up speed. Following his trend of providing updates, Marshall has now confirmed that the film is officially complete.

Frank Marshall teased the production’s star last June when he posted a photo from his “office” – the stunning Phulay Bay, a Ritz-Carlton property. The gorgeous snap he shared was enough to make any fan – or person in need of a vacation – green with envy. When confirming the completion of filming, the Raiders of the Lost Ark The producer chose a much less grandiose approach. He decided to share a picture of a cute little souvenir, which you can see in the Instagram post below:

The cap appears to be a souvenir for crew members and may even have been a gift. Regardless, this is a cool little piece of jewelry that I personally would like to have. I could imagine that Sea biscuit The producer has lots of fun mementos like this, which makes this movie lover all the more jealous. That being said, however, this post should be welcome news for anyone looking forward to what’s to come Jurassic world Film. With the cameras no longer rolling, it means the film is going into post-production and is one step closer to completion.

A strong team has been put together for the latest installment in the blockbuster series – both in front of and behind the camera. The ensemble includes Scarlett Johansson, Jonathan Bailey, Rupert Friend, Ed Skrein and Mahershala Ali. Rogue One: A Star Wars StoryGareth Edwards directs from a script by young talent David Koepp. This film is the first Law Film whose pen has been credited to Koepp since 1997 The Lost World. Overall, this combination of collaborators is certainly exciting and should help strengthen the upcoming sequel.

Against this backdrop, an intelligence team is tasked with obtaining genetic material from three powerful dinosaurs. But after saving a family from a failed sailing expedition, both groups find themselves on an island that hides a dark secret.

What’s no secret is that I’m excited to see what this film has to offer and wonder if it manages to recapture the spirit of the previous entries in the saga. With that in mind, fans will have to wait quite a long time to see the film in its entirety. However, thanks to Frank Marshall’s new contribution, I am comforted by the knowledge that the film is now officially in the can.
