Emanuel Wallace, 27, from east London, is better known as Big Manny by his 1.9 million followers on TikTok, where he shares videos explaining various science experiments from his back garden while using Jamaican Patois phrases and London slang. In early December, Mr Wallace won the Education Creator of the Year award at the TikTok Awards ceremony, which he said is a “symbol that anything that you put your mind to you can achieve”. The content creator began making videos during the coronavirus pandemic when schools turned to online learning but has since expanded his teaching from videos to paper after releasing his debut book Science Is Lit in August. He believes his “unconventional” teaching methods help to make his content relatable for younger audiences by using slang deriving from his Jamaican and British heritage. “The language that I use, it’s a combination between Jamaican Patois and London slang because I have Jamaican heritage,” the TikToker, who holds a bachelors and masters degree in biomedical science, told the PA news agency. “That’s why in my videos sometimes I might say things like ‘Wagwan’ or ‘you dun know’. I just want to connect with the young people more, so I speak in the same way that they speak. “The words that I use, the way that I deliver the lesson as well, I would say that my method of teaching is quite unconventional. I speak in a way that is quite conversational.” Examples of his videos include lithium batteries catching fire after being sandwiched inside a raw chicken breast, as well as mixing gold with gallium to create blue gold, earning millions of views. Mr Wallace hopes his content will help make the science industry more diverse, saying “the scientists that I was taught about, none of them look like me”. “Now me being a scientist is showing young people that they can become one as well, regardless of the background that they come from, the upbringing that they’ve had,” he said. “I just want to make it seem more attainable and possible for them because if I can do it, and I come from the same place as you, there’s no reason why you can’t do it as well.” The TikToker has seen a shift in more young people turning to the app as a learning resource and feels short-form videos will soon become a part of the national curriculum in schools. “I’m seeing (young people) using that a lot more – social media as a resource for education – and I feel like in the future, it’s going to become more and more popular as well,” he said. “I get a lot of comments from students saying that my teacher showed my video in the classroom as a resource, so I feel like these short form videos are going to be integrated within the national curriculum at some point in the near future.” He also uses his platform to raise awareness of different social issues, which he said is “extremely important”. One of his videos highlighted an anti-knife campaign backed by actor Idris Elba, which earned more than 39 million views, while his clip about the banning of disposable vapes was viewed more than 4.6 million times. He said there is some pressure being a teacher with a large following online but hopes he can be a role model for young people. “I’m aware that I am in the public eye and there’s a lot of young people watching me,” he said. “Young people can be impressionable, so I make sure that I conduct myself appropriately, so that I can be a role model. “I always have the same message for young people, specifically. I tell them to stay curious. Always ask questions and look a little bit deeper into things.” His plans for 2025 include publishing a second Science Is Lit book and expanding his teaching to television where he soon hopes to create his own science show.

FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) — Josh Hoover threw for 252 yards and a touchdown and JP Richardson had 149 all-purpose yards and a 38-yard touchdown reception to lead TCU over Arizona 49-28 on Saturday. On the first play from scrimmage, Wildcats quarterback Noah Fifita was intercepted by Bud Clark. TCU scored five plays later on Trent Battle’s 4-yard run. The Horned Frogs scored touchdowns on five straight drives, going at least 75 yards on nine or more plays on three of the possessions. TCU (7-4, 5-3 Big 12) drove 75 yards in 12 plays in the final 1:55 of the first half to take a 21-13 lead on Savion Williams’ 20-yard run. Hoover completed five passes on the drive, including gains of 24, 19, and 24 yards to set up Williams’ score with 20 seconds left in the half. The Horned Frogs took the second-half kickoff and drove 76 yards in nine plays to build a 28-13 lead on Battle’s 1-yard run. Richardson’s 33-yard punt return to the Arizona 34 set up a third touchdown in three possessions. He caught a short pass over the middle from Hoover and raced untouched 38 yards for the score and a 35-13 lead. Richardson led TCU with six catches for 107 yards. Four TCU running backs scored a touchdown, including Williams, who rushed for 80 yards and two scores. Battle also rushed for 28 yards and two scores. Fifita was 29 of 44 for 284 yards with two touchdowns and an interception for Arizona (4-7, 2-6). Tetairoa McMillan made nine catches for 115 yards. Arizona defensive lineman Sterling Lane II picked up a fumble from TCU backup quarterback Ken Seals with just over a minute left in the game and ran it 70 yards for a touchdown to cap the scoring. Clark leads the Horned Frogs with three interceptions, including one in each of the past two games. He is tied for fifth-most in the Big 12. Arizona: The Wildcats, who started the season in the AP Top 25 poll, will not be bowl eligible this season with a game remaining under first-year coach Brent Brennan. A year ago under coach Jedd Fisch, who is now at Washington, Arizona advanced to the Alamo Bowl for the first time since 2017. TCU: The Horned Frogs, who became bowl eligible two weeks ago, won their third consecutive game at Amon Carter Stadium after losing two in a row to UCF and Houston. TCU has won four of its past five, the only blemish a 37-34 last-second loss at Baylor. TCU: At Cincinnati on Saturday. Arizona: Hosts Arizona State on Saturday.

Charles Schwab Corp. stock underperforms Tuesday when compared to competitors despite daily gains
For many years there has been something special about matches between Newcastle and Liverpool that guarantees entertainment. Fans were not disappointed in the midweek clash at St James' Park as they witnessed a 3-3 thriller in a game that some called the best of the season. Two goals from the amazing Mohamed Salah looked like they would clinch matters for the league leaders but a last minute strike by Fabien Schar ensured the Magpies shared the points. It reminded many people of the classic 1996 meeting between the two sides which Liverpool won 4 -3 and contributed to Newcastle's failure to win the league that season. Despite dropping two precious points, Liverpool fans will have been encouraged by what manager Arne Slot had to say after the game concerning Salah's future at the club. He called Salah's performance "outstanding" and commented "we are hoping and expecting that he can continue this for a long time." But the action was not confined to Newcastle as on Wednesday night alone 25 goals were scored in the six matches. And when you get down to the nitty gritty of football it's goals spectators want to see. With another 10 in the four matches on Tuesday and Thursday the net total for the 10 games was a healthy 35 goals. It doesn't quite match the record 45 goals scored in the 10 games one February weekend last year, but it's not a bad effort. Aside from the action at St James' catching the eye was Chelsea's 5-1 demolition of a very poor Southampton side at St Mary's. Once again the Saints self-destructed with disastrous playing out from the back and some fragile goalkeeping. And then there was a silly sending off when captain Jack Stephens pulled Marc Cucurella's hair, although some might argue that it hardly warranted a red card. The win moved Chelsea into second place but they should have a more demanding fixture tomorrow when they travel to Tottenham Hotspur despite Spurs' surprise mid-week loss to Bournemouth. Perhaps the most significant result on Wednesday was defending champions Manchester City ending their losing streak with a comprehensive 3-0 win over Nottingham Forest. They were still below their best but it brought a huge sigh of relief from manager Pep Guardiola. It also gave City fans hope that maybe they could claw their way back into contention. Another important result was Arsenal's 2-0 victory over Manchester United. Once again Arsenal looked dangerous from corner kicks and both of their goals were scored by defenders, Jurrien Timber and William Saliba who admittedly didn't know much about his goal as it went in off his backside. It put an end to Ruben Amorim's three-match unbeaten run with United although he will be confident of bouncing back with today's home fixture against Forest. The most surprising scoreline came from Goodison Park where Everton, not known for their goalscoring prowess, thrashed Wolves 4-0 although they did benefit from two own goals by unlucky Wolves defender Craig Dawson. It was an important win for Everton and will give them much-needed confidence when they take on Liverpool at Goodison today. Another side enjoying a return to form were Aston Villa who earned a 3-1 win against Brentford thanks to an excellent first-half performance. After the mid-week excitement we can probably expect a goal drought this weekend as nervous managers bid to tighten up their defences.Postal Service EV Order Is in Jeopardy, Report Says.

TikTok files legal challenge of federal government's shutdown order TikTok is challenging the federal government’s order to shut down its operations in Canada. The company filed in documents in Federal Court in Vancouver on Thursday. Darryl Greer and Anja Karadeglija, The Canadian Press Dec 10, 2024 3:07 PM Share by Email Share on Facebook Share on X Share on LinkedIn Print Share via Text Message A TikTok sign on a display at the APEC summit in Lima, Peru on November 15, 2024. THE CANADIAN PRESS/Sean Kilpatrick Listen to this article 00:00:58 TikTok is challenging the federal government’s order to shut down its operations in Canada. The company filed in documents in Federal Court in Vancouver on Thursday. The government ordered the dissolution of TikTok’s Canadian business in November after a national security review of the Chinese company behind the social media platform. That means TikTok must "wind down" its operations in Canada, though the app will continue to be available to Canadians. TikTok wants the court to overturn the government’s order and to place a pause on the order while the court hears the case. It is claiming the minister's decision was "unreasonable" and "driven by improper purposes." The review was carried out through the Investment Canada Act, which allows the government to investigate any foreign investment with potential to harm national security. Industry Minister François-Philippe Champagne said in a statement at the time the government was taking action to address "specific national security risks," though it didn’t specify what those risks were. TikTok’s filing says Champagne "failed to engage with TikTok Canada on the purported substance of the concerns that led to the (order.)" The company argues the government ordered "measures that bear no rational connection to the national security risks it identifies." It says the reasons for the order "are unintelligible, fail to reveal a rational chain of analysis and are rife with logical fallacies." The company's law firm, Osler Hoskin & Harcourt LLP, declined to comment, while Champagne’s office did not immediately respond to a request for comment. A TikTok spokesperson said in a statement that the order would "eliminate the jobs and livelihoods of our hundreds of dedicated local employees — who support the community of more than 14 million monthly Canadian users on TikTok, including businesses, advertisers, creators and initiatives developed especially for Canada."
