Good Morning! On this day in 1994, 45-year-old George Foreman became boxing's oldest heavyweight champion by defeating 26-year-old Michael Moorer in the 10th round in Las Vegas, dedicating the Foreman upset to "all my buddies in the nursing home and all the guys in jail."

Russian Airplane Bomb Plot Foiled

Western spy agencies have accused Russia of plotting to send incendiary devices on planes bound for the U.S. and Canada to undermine, aiming to undermine support for Ukraine.

Russia allegedly sent two devices using logistics company DHL, which were discovered and ignited at hubs in Germany and England, prompting a multinational investigation, according to a Wall Street Journal report.

Investigators determined that the incendiary devices disguised as electric massagers, sent from Lithuania to the U.K., were part of a broader Russian plot to transport explosives on planes to North America.

One suspect has been arrested in Lithuania and four in Poland, while authorities believe at least two more suspects are still at large.

Judge OK's Elon's $1M-a-Day Sweepstakes

A Pennsylvania judge ruled on Monday that Elon Musk's $1 million-a-day voter sweepstakes, organized by his political action committee, can continue through Tuesday's election.

The ruling came after Musk's lawyers argued that winners are preselected as paid spokespeople rather than chosen by chance, countering claims from Philadelphia District Attorney Larry Krasner that the sweepstakes is a "scam" designed to sway voters illegally.

Musk's "America PAC" stated that recipients are vetted and must align with the group's values, with plans for final winners in Arizona and Michigan before the election concludes. The PAC has registered over 1 million participants.

Music Icon Quincy Jones Dies at 91

In later years, Jones published his memoir, Q: The Autobiography of Quincy Jones, in 2001, and was the subject of a Netflix documentary in 2018 directed by his daughter, actor Rashida Jones. Take a look at his life in photos.

Best Buy Introduces New Smart Home Category

The leading retailer in the distribution of Smart Home products has recently unveiled a new addition to its smart home lineup, Smart Shades.

There are A LOT of windows out there, and with only a small 10% of them being automated, this is a market that's already worth billions with projected double-digit growth for the next decade!

Recognizing this, Best Buy has made a huge bet on an innovative startup and has already stocked its product in over 100 retail stores. This up-and-comer is RYSE, and for a limited time, you can invest in its vision of owning the Smart Shades industry.

Best Buy made similar bets on smart-home titans Ring and Nest, both of which saw billion-dollar exits at the hands of Amazon and Google.

Looking to follow in their footsteps, RYSE's share price has grown by over 20X since it was founded, and there is significant room for growth as it capitalizes on the increasing demand for its patented tech.
