DALLAS, Texas — Trailblazing longtime U.S. Rep. Eddie Bernice Johnson, a nurse from Texas who helped bring hundreds of millions of federal dollars to the Dallas area as the region's most powerful Democrat, died Sunday. She was 88.
President Joe Biden, Dallas Mayor Eric Johnson and many other leaders issued statements about her death after her son posted about it on Facebook. The Dallas Morning News also confirmed her death with an unnamed source close to the family. No cause of death was given.
Biden hailed her "immense courage" and called her "an icon and mentor to generations of public servants, through whom her legacy of resilience and purpose will endure."
"She was the single most effective legislator Dallas has ever had," the mayor said in a statement. "Nobody brought more federal infrastructure money home to our city. Nobody fought harder for our communities and our residents' interests and safety. And nobody knew how to navigate Washington better for the people of Dallas."
Eddie Bernice Johnson served in the House for three decades after becoming the first registered nurse elected to Congress and first Black chief psychiatric nurse at Dallas' Veterans Affairs hospital. She went on to become the first Black woman to chair the House Committee on Science, Space, and Technology, and she also led the Congressional Black Caucus. She left office in January after repeatedly delaying her retirement. Before Congress, she served in the Texas legislature.
"For three decades, Chairwoman Johnson was a powerful force in the United States Congress, always focused on the future," House Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi said in a statement, praising Johnson as "a tenacious trailblazer, a talented legislator and a devoted public servant."
Johnson used her committee leadership position to fight against Republican efforts to block action on climate change. Congressional Black Caucus Chair Steven Horsford said Johnson was also "a fierce advocate for expanding STEM opportunities to Black and minority students" who also played a key role in helping the Biden administration pass a major package of incentives for computer chip manufacturers.
She was born in Waco and grew up in the segregated South. Dallas' once-segregated Union Station was renamed in her honor in 2019.
Her own experience with racism helped spur her to get involved in politics. She recalled that officials at the VA hospital were shocked that she was Black after they hired her sight-unseen, so they rescinded their offer for her to live in a dorm on campus. She told The Dallas Morning News in 2020 that officials would go into patients' rooms ahead of her to "say that I was qualified."
"That was really the most blatant, overt racism that I ever experienced in my life," she told the newspaper.
Johnson nearly quit but decided to stick with it.
"It was very challenging," she said. "But any job where you're an African American woman entering for the first time would be a challenge. They had not hired one before I got there. Yes, it was a challenge, but it was a successful venture."

Directed by Brian De Palma and featuring Al Pacino in the lead role, Scarface is generally considered to be one of the greatest crime dramas in cinematic history.
Released in 1983, the film explored themes of greed, power and violence, and its portrayal of the rise and fall of Cuban immigrant Tony Montana (Pacino) in ’80s Miami made it a cultural reference point for depicting the dark side of the American Dream.
Pacino, who got an Oscar nomination for the role, put in a stellar performance as the charismatic, ambitious and ruthless Montana. He was ably assisted by Michelle Pfeiffer (Batman Returns, 2017’s Murder on the Orient Express and Ant-Man and the Wasp) in the role of his glamorous ‘trophy wife’ Elvira.
The dialogue, written by director Oliver Stone, was littered with memorable quotes, many of which have adorned walls of students and cinephiles alike for decades and now find themselves meme-friendly.
On that note, here are 15 of the best Scarface quotes – all delivered by Tony Montana himself.
These Are The Highest-Rated Christopher Nolan Movies On IMDb
The Best ‘Scarface’ quotes
- “I always tell the truth. Even when I lie.”
- “Say hello to my little friend!”
- “You need people like me so you can point your f**kin’ fingers and say, ‘That’s the bad guy’.”
- “I’m Tony Montana! You f**k with me, you f**kin’ with the best!”
- “I never f**ked anybody over in my life didn’t have it coming to them.”
- “You know what capitalism is? Getting f**ked!”
- “The only thing in this world that gives orders… is balls.”
- “Every dog has his day.”
- “In this country, you gotta make the money first. Then when you get the money, you get the power. Then when you get the power, then you get the women.”
- “Why don’t you try sticking your head up your ass? See if it fits.”
- “You wanna waste my time? OK. I call my lawyer. He’s the best lawyer in Miami. He’s such a good lawyer, that by tomorrow morning, you gonna be working in Alaska. So dress warm.”
- “Would you kiss me if I wear the hat?”
- “I kill a communist for fun, but for a green card… I’m gonna carve him up real nice.”
- “I got my balls, and I got my word, and I don’t break ’em for anybody.”
And, lastly, this little gem from the television edit of the film which revised some of the more choice language for a less offensive tone:
- “This town’s like a great big chicken just waiting to be plucked. ” – Tony Montana
Let’s just say that, in the original quote, it was not a chicken and it wasn’t waiting to be ‘plucked’…

It was a sight to be seen on Sunday, when Los Angeles Rams running back Kyren Williams scored a touchdown in a game against the New York Giants and threw the football to his mother in the stands. The problem was that someone tried to take the ball away from her, and Williams' mom wasn't having it. The mother of Kyren Williams had to fight off another spectator in the stands that wanted the football. She did so beautifully.
Don’t mess with @Kyrenwilliams23’s mom 😤 pic.twitter.com/Sv8ZTyYYjm
— NFL (@NFL) December 31, 2023
It's easy to understand why Williams' mom wanted to fight for the ball. Her son was having an absolute field day on the football field, scoring three touchdowns for the Rams in a game against the Giants. Williams finished the game with 87 yards on 20 carries, and the Rams got a 26-25 victory.
Williams is having a solid season for the Rams, with more than 1,000 yards rushing and 9 touchdowns before the Giants game on Sunday. He's also got 30 receptions on the year for 192 yards before Sunday's contest.
Williams has worked his way into a meaningful role in the Rams offense after a short time in the league. He is a fifth round NFL Draft pick in the 2022 class. Williams played his college football at Notre Dame, where he was a second-team All-American in 2021. He also was awarded the ACC Rookie of the Year honor in 2020.
After seeing his mother fight so hard in the stands for the football, it's easy to see where Williams gets his strength from. She's definitely NOT someone to mess with. | https://clutchpoints.com/rams-news-kyren-williams-mom-savagely-rips-td-ball-away-from-fan-who-tried-take-it-from-her | 2024-01-01T03:28:34Z |

Large swathes of northern Australia are set for a sweltering start to the new year.
The Bureau of Meteorology had put in place heatwave warnings for parts of Queensland, the Northern Territory and Western Australia, where temperatures are expected to soar into the 40s on Monday.
The western Kimberley in WA, including the Dampier Peninsula, was forecast to be the worst hit, with the mercury expected to touch 46 degrees at Marble Bar.
The town’s heat gauge has been showing scorching temperatures higher than the bureau’s official readings in recent days, with thermometers at the local RSL registering 51 degrees.
Extreme heatwave warnings were also in place for parts of far northern Queensland and the Tiwi Islands in the NT.
Severe heatwave conditions were expected for the Top End, while a low-intensity heatwave would extend throughout much of the nation’s interior, including into South Australia and western NSW.
While Queensland’s northern interior was due to face severe heatwave conditions, parts of the state were also bracing for potentially damaging thunderstorms.
Charters Towers in the state’s north was expecting a double whammy of severe thunderstorms temperatures reaching 36C.
Conditions were expected to begin cooling slightly over the next week but severe and low-intensity heatwaves were still forecast for much of Australia’s north.
Mild conditions were forecast for Queensland’s southeast and further down the east coast.
Temperatures of 26C were expected in Sydney while Melbourne could expect a maximum of 25C on Monday.

Almaty to host Historical context and modern development sub-regional seminar
Understanding and managing any historical environment implies the realization that the cultural, property, surrounding landscapes and cities live under the influence of dynamic forces in the economic, social and cultural spheres, which have formed and continue to transform its appearance. The historical context and modern development can interact and strengthen each other's role and importance, the official website of the UNESCO Cluster Office in Almaty reads.
UNESCO advocates a holistic approach to the management of historical landscapes, which combines the objectives of preserving urban heritage and socio-economic development. Under this approach, urban heritage is considered as a social, cultural and economic resource for urban development.
This training workshop is funded by UNESCO/Netherlands Trust Fund. | https://en.inform.kz/news/almaty-to-host-historical-context-and-modern-development-sub-regional-seminar_a3498746/ | 2024-01-01T03:28:37Z |
Chilly weather can place your skin and hair under additional stress – which is why both need extra care this season. This is where a gentle care routine infused with the goodness of the bhringraj plant, an Ayurvedic herb, can be a true game-changer.
The use of this commonly found powerful herb in your hair care routine is extremely beneficial to add lustre to your tresses and prevent hair loss. Healthline notes how bhringraj can promote hair growth, strengthen your tresses, and prevent dandruff and greying.
All you need to know about bhringraj
The herb Eclipta prostrata, commonly known as false daisy or bhringraj, is found in India, Bangladesh, Thailand and Brazil. Bhringraj is rich in anti-fungal and antimicrobial properties, helps reduce flakiness and tackles dandruff. It also possesses anti-inflammatory properties that help soothe an irritated scalp and prevent infections. This herb also promotes blood circulation which aids in hair growth. There is also evidence to show that bhringraj is regarded by traditional medicinal practitioners as a valuable medicinal plant for the treatment of liver, gastrointestinal and respiratory tract disorders as well as skin issues and fever.
How does it benefit hair?
Bhringraj promotes blood supply to the scalp and roots, rejuvenating the follicles and promoting hair growth. You can use it in various ways; one is by infusing it in a carrier oil like coconut oil. Massage the oil onto your scalp using gentle circular motions once or twice a week to strengthen the hair.
One can also choose shampoos, conditioners and hair masks infused with bhringraj and other active ingredients. You can also nourish the hair by using bhringraj supplements.

If your parents, significant other or boss are breathing down your neck about how you STILL haven’t completed Bethesda’s latest RPG epic, then you’ve come to the right place – as we have compiled all of the Starfield missions, including all key chapters needed to progress the main story, as well as a full list of faction and side quests.
If you’ve played it, you know all too well that Starfield is a LONG game. How long, precisely? Well, this mission list should help you get an idea of how much you’ll be playing whether you’re a completionist or not.
With so many missions, the Starfield voice cast is huge, too, with more spoken dialogue than any previous Bethesda game.
If you’re playing on the PC, then you may want to check out the Starfield minimum and recommended specs to see if your rig is up to snuff.
If your performance woes are more of a skill issue, though, then take a look at the following video for some Starfield tips and tricks to help get your best moon boot forward.
It goes without saying that there are spoilers ahead. That said, the mission names don’t allude too much to what’s going on – but if you want to go in with fresh eyes, then maybe read while squinting so that the spoilers don’t count.
How many main story missions are there in ‘Starfield’?
As far as we can make out, there are 19 main missions in Starfield. These can be completed in around 30-40 hours if you just want to blitz through the main campaign – but as we know, much of what makes Bethesda games great is what lies off the beaten track.
The main quest sees you coming into contact with an artefact on your first day on the job as a miner, and then making contact with Constellation and trying to figure out the mystery behind them.
We won’t spoil anything, but the quest ends with a very clever take on the new game mode that fits very well into the story.
Full list of main story missions in ‘Starfield’
Below are all the main story missions in Starfield to get through.
- One Small Step
- The Old Neighbourhood
- The Empty Nest
- Back to Vectera
- Into the Unknown
- All That Money Can Buy
- Starborn
- Further into the Unknown
- Short Sighted
- No Sudden Moves
- High Price to Pay
- Unity
- In Their Footsteps
- Unearthed
- Final Glimpses
- Missed Beyond Measure
- Entangled
- Revelation
- One Giant Leap
This seemingly small list is quite deceptive, though, as many of these missions require you to fly to different planets and have many different objectives within them – nevertheless, it should give you a broad sense of where you are in the story.

The Los Angeles Rams are still fighting for a playoff spot heading into their Week 17 clash with the New York Giants. Puka Nacua is dealing with an injury as LA continues to jostle for playoff positioning but should be able to go at MetLife Stadium for the 1:00 PM EST game.
Nacua is listed as questionable due to a hip injury and is expected to play, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. It's a great sign that he is still looking to go despite missing a recent practice.
The Rams' passing attack is one of the best in the NFL thanks in large part to the emergence of Nacua, the 177th overall pick of last year's draft. In 15 games so far this season, he has recorded 1,327 receiving yards, 96 receptions and five touchdowns. LA has plenty of talent to fend off the lowly Giants even if Nacua is unable to go. But having him and Cooper Kupp catch passes from Matthew Stafford will greatly help Los Angeles improve to 9-7.
There are other injuries for the Rams to watch for heading into the game. Guard Joe Noteboom (foot), tackle Alaric Jackson (thigh) and linebacker Ernest Jones (illness) are listed as questionable, too, and cornerback Tre Tomlinson is out with a hamstring injury.
For New York, cornerback Deonte Banks (shoulder) and wide receiver Wan'Dale Robinson (quad) are listed as questionable.
Although the San Francisco 49ers have the NFC West wrapped up, the Rams are in a favorable position to get back into the playoffs. They need to pick up a win and should have an easier time doing so with Puka Nacua active. | https://clutchpoints.com/rams-news-puka-nacua-set-to-power-through-hip-injury-in-week-17-vs-giants | 2024-01-01T03:28:40Z |

The Toronto Raptors lost to the Detroit Pistons on Saturday by the score of 129-127, and it snapped the Pistons' 28-game losing streak. The Raptors were playing shorthanded as a result of the trade headlined by OG Anunoby going to the New York Knicks. Raptors head coach Darko Rajakovic admitted that there were emotions throughout the day as a result of the deal, but did not want to make any excuses.
“It was a very emotional day… but I don't want to take anything away from Detroit. They played a good game and deserved the win,” Darko Rajakovic said, via Michael Grange of SportsNet.
In addition to OG Anunoby, the Raptors sent Precious Achiuwa and Malachi Flynn to the Knicks in exchange for RJ Barrett, Immanuel Quickley and a 2024 second-round pick which is originally from the Pistons. RJ Barrett and Immanuel Quickley will both be significant parts of the Raptors' rotation, and the pair could possibly be in the starting five. So Toronto was without two key players.
Quickley, who is having an especially strong season, and is viewed as arguably the best piece that the Raptors got, will be unleashed in a bigger role with the team.
With Toronto playing shorthanded tonight, this was going to be the Pistons' best chance at a win in a long time, so they took advantage and got it done. For them, it will be about avoiding another long losing streak. For the Raptors, it will be about integrating Quickley and Barrett into the lineup and building from there.
The Raptors will welcome their new players, and look to bounce back on Monday at home against the Cleveland Cavaliers. As Toronto drops to 12-20, it will need to turn it around quickly to get back into legitimate playoff contention this season. It will be interesting to see how it works out. | https://clutchpoints.com/raptors-news-darko-rajakovic-classy-message-pistons-amid-torontos-emotional-day | 2024-01-01T03:28:46Z |
Sunday, December 31, 2023 – A lady called Nneka Obani has advised people who are not doing well financially to avoid family gatherings until they make money
“If you know you are the poorest amongst your siblings or you aren’t doing well financially, I recommend that you avoid family occasions or gatherings until you have money.
If you must attend, kindly sit at a corner like a visitor. Let the people that are serving the food and souvenir serve you like one of the guests, so you don’t end up embarrassing yourself.
Do not go close to where the food and drinks are being served, sit at a corner and observe. Stop setting yourself up for insults,” she wrote in a Facebook post on Sunday, December 31.

Well, this is a new low for the Toronto Raptors. This season has been an outright disaster for the team. Many expected this to be a rebuilding year for Toronto, with the departure of Fred VanVleet and the arrival of first year head coach Darko Rajakovic. However, no one expected them to be “losing to the Detroit Pistons” bad.
Yes, the Pistons, who were on an unprecedented 28-game losing skid, broke their slump against the Raptors. While most of the stories revolve around Detroit, Toronto's downfall deserves some scrutiny. It's also telling that after the game, Dennis Schroder admitted that his team's chemistry has been a bit off, per Eric Koreen.
“”I don't feel it here like that yet,” Schröder says of Raptors compared to German team. Not everyone on same page. But thinks it's generally growing and getting better, and concedes NBA is very different.”
Well, that's to be expected. The Raptors have a bunch of new players coming in and a new head coach at the helm. The chemistry obviously won't be there instantly, especially not to the level of a national team. However, we're nearing the halfway point of the season. There's been some individual brilliance from the likes of Scottie Barnes, but the cohesion just isn't there yet.
The Raptors' chemistry problems will have a couple of new variables introduced to them. After years of speculation, Toronto traded star forward OG Anunoby to the New York Knicks, along with Precious Achiuwa and Malachi Flynn. In return, Toronto received Immanuel Quickly and Canada native RJ Barrett. The team's chemistry will once again be tested. Can Toronto navigate this treacherous path they find themselves in? | https://clutchpoints.com/raptors-news-dennis-schroder-chemistry-truth-bomb-loss-pistons | 2024-01-01T03:28:53Z |

Pascal Siakam and the Toronto Raptors weren't happy about OG Anunoby being traded to the New York Knicks. Adding insult to injury, a shorthanded Toronto team fell to the lowly Detroit Pistons mere hours after the deal was announced, victims of the longest losing streak in NBA history finally coming an end.
Siakam addressed the trade after the game, implying the Raptors let related dismay affect their play in Detroit.
“Yeah, it sucks. It’s not easy,” he said of Anunoby's exit, per Erik Koreen of The Athletic. “And I think for some people, it is the first time. I’ve seen it. I’ve seen it happen. So I understand. We got to be able to move on from it. That’s what it’s about.”
Unfortunately for Siakam, he won't be able to escape more trade drama leading up to the February 9th trade deadline. A rumored trade candidate dating back to the start of last season, he's playing on an expiring contract in 2023-24, and Anunoby being sent to the New York Knicks indicates Raptors management is finally ready to revamp the roster and build around Barnes.
Indeed, Toronto is reportedly still “exploring” potential Siakam deals, but has yet to make any traction. Expect that to change over the next couple weeks, with the 2019 NBA champion's days playing north of the border likely numbered.
Regardless, just like he did Saturday night while dropping 35 points against the Pistons, Siakam will “everything” within his power to try and keep the Raptors competitive.
“I just want to try and do everything I can … to help us win the game,” he said. “Again, I always felt like I’ve done that — be who I need to be for the team to win.” | https://clutchpoints.com/raptors-news-pascal-siakam-reacts-og-anunoby-trade-own-rumors-swirl | 2024-01-01T03:29:00Z |
Sunday, December 31, 2023 – A man called Oladapo Ogundipe has shared the heartbreaking story of how his daughter, Alanis, committed suicide in May this year after she got into a relationship with a “bad” man identified as Ryan.
In an emotional video interview, Ogundipe said he had always discouraged his daughter from going into any relationship so she could focus on her life and career but Ryan came suddenly into her life.
The bereaved father said he tried to discourage late Alanis from dating Ryan but he was very careful so she wouldn’t run away from him. He said he was never in agreement with her relationship with Ryan.
He said after meeting Alanis, Ryan started doing things that made her vulnerable. He said Ryan was infected with Herpes which is not treatable and went on to infect his daughter so she wouldn’t leave him. He said Ryan also stopped Alanis from speaking with other men.
Ogundipe stated that Ryan pretended he was a very rich guy who ran multiple businesses. The distraught father said Ryan took his daughter to Spain to meet his parents and went on to promise her marriage and to also invest in her future. He said it all turned out to be lies as he didn’t have the money he claimed he had.
He said his daughter’s mental state began to deteriorate after he started shouting at her and asking for her bank statement and demanding money. He said after this happened, she started researching online on how to commit suicide.
He said the last straw that broke the camel’s back was that Ryan allegedly got a hold of her password, broke into her phone when she was sleeping, stole her information, then threatened her with the information. He said Ryan also chased her out of his house violently, seized her passport which he required to claim her money and other belongings.
He said his late daughter told her mum all that was happening between herself and Ryan.
Ogundipe said late Alanis told her mum she was going for a walk to clear her mind, and though her mum discouraged her from leaving the house, she insisted.
He said she went on to jump in front of a moving train in Manchester on May 29.
He said Ryan was introduced to his daughter by a woman who claimed to be her best friend. He said the lady and Ryan have now reunited in love after Alanis took her life.

The Toronto Raptors unofficially kicked off the NBA's trade season on Saturday when they sent OG Anunoby to the New York Knicks as part of a blockbuster deal that indicates a rebuild could be on the way. That likely doesn't make many fans happy, and it sure didn't make Scottie Barnes happy from the sounds of it either.
The Raptors have a lot of talented pieces on their roster, with Barnes being among the best of them. The problem is that they just haven't been able to win games consistently, which necessitated moving on from Anunoby. Barnes wasn't thrilled with that decision, as he and Anunoby became close friends during their time in Toronto.
“None of this should confuse people about the Raptors’ being some sort of in-fighting soap opera of a team. Barnes declined to speak to the media after the game, visibly upset about the trade, even if it was done with his future in mind. Anunoby and Achiuwa were Barnes’ post-practice shooting partners, and this was the first big trade he has witnessed firsthand.” – Eric Koreen, The Athletic
The Raptors have to keep Scottie Barnes happy
By moving on from Anunoby, the Raptors are pretty much confirming Barnes to be their main building block for the future, but he still isn't happy with the move. Barnes was close with both Anunoby and Precious Achiuwa, who was also involved in this deal, and he likely wanted to try to win with the current core of players that he was with in Toronto.
The move was one the Raptors almost had to make, but it's not one that Barnes is going to be happy about, and now Toronto has to focus on finding a way to keep their star forward happy. This is a piece of the trade that likely will be getting overlooked, and it will be interesting to see how Barnes handles this trade moving forward. | https://clutchpoints.com/raptors-news-scottie-barnes-visibly-upset-og-anunoby-trade | 2024-01-01T03:29:06Z |
Sunday, December 31, 2023 – A man called Kunle has revealed the secret behind his happy and successful marriage.
According to Kunle, his wife not being a feminist. He said they make sacrifices for each other and follow scriptural principles in their home.
He also advised men not to marry because of ‘big bumbum or big chest’
“Our secret is simple; 1. My wife is not a feminist 2. I am not a slave driver 3. We follow scriptural principles in our home 4. We don’t report the seldom friction between us to anyone, we sort it! 5,” he wrote in a post on Saturday, December 30, 2023.
“Marriage is a ministry to us; our goal is for our kids, mentees and friends to be eternally glad they have us in their corner 6. No individual project, it’s always about the family. Why am I sharing this? Go back to no 5; bcs our marriage is equally a ministry to you!
“My wife got something done this year that I motivated her for, my heart melted when she knelt down to thank me for my input. She has not practiced medicine for 2yrs in order to care for our twin boys, which was solely her decision.
“That’s some super sacrifice that the kids and myself will eternally be grateful for! Don’t marry big bumbum or big chest; marry Jesus’ daughter/son,”
He added, “To the feminist having tonic clonic seizures because of the tweet, do what’s best for you! As you can see, I said “our”. There is no place for the method of feminism being practiced in the scripture we follow as our pattern, we love our beautiful cross!

There's a party going on in Charm City. The Baltimore Ravens clinched the no.1 seed in the AFC playoffs after thrashing the Miami Dolphins on Sunday. Baltimore whipped Miami 56-19, showing their dominance as the best team in the AFC.
Baltimore is now 13-3 on the season following the win. The Ravens got a video game performance from quarterback Lamar Jackson, who finished the game 18-21 passing for 321 yards with 5 touchdowns. The Ravens offense was absolutely on fire, averaging nearly 9 yards per play.
The Ravens defense also came up with some big plays, forcing Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa to throw two interceptions. The Ravens only gave up 6 points in the entire second half to Miami. Baltimore also recorded three sacks and forced a fumble.
The Ravens are looking for their first Super Bowl championship since 2012. The team has made 15 playoff appearances in the franchise's history, but only won the Super Bowl twice.
The playoff picture is far from clear, as several teams are still vying for wild card spots in the AFC playoffs, as well as the clouded picture of who wins the AFC South. The Jaguars, Colts and Texans all have a chance to win that division.
But in Baltimore, they don't need to sweat any of that small stuff. The Ravens are the no. 1 seed in the AFC, and the town may party so hard on New Year's Eve that they raise Edgar Allan Poe from the dead.
The Ravens close out the regular season on Jan. 7 with a home game against their division rival the Pittsburgh Steelers. Miami falls to 11-5 with the loss. | https://clutchpoints.com/ravens-news-clinch-no-1-seed-with-total-annihilation-of-dolphins | 2024-01-01T03:29:12Z |

CLEMSON, S.C. -- Clemson running back Will Shipley has no structural damage and won't need surgery after a scary injury late in the team's Gator Bowl win over Kentucky on Friday.
Tigers coach Dabo Swinney confirmed details of Shipley's MRI through a spokesman Sunday.
Shipley looked to be seriously hurt after a 60-yard, fourth-quarter kickoff return in which he stumbled and somersaulted before hitting the ground. He came up holding his left leg and was carted off the field with a towel over his head.
But, a short time after, Shipley returned to the field with crutches to celebrate the Tigers' 38-35 victory with his teammates.
Swinney said during his postgame session that the injury did not appear serious, but he would need an MRI to be sure.
Shipley, the 5-foot-11, 210-pound junior tailback from Weddington, North Carolina, has not yet announced whether he will enter the NFL draft or return to Clemson for his senior year.
Shipley finished with 827 yards rushing and five touchdowns this season. | https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/39220217/clemson-rb-shipley-need-surgery-leg-injury | 2024-01-01T03:29:17Z |
Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh is in awe of the performance that his quarterback Lamar Jackson gave on Sunday. Jackson threw for 321 yards and five touchdowns as the Ravens demolished the Miami Dolphins, 56-19. The win gave the Ravens the no.1 seed in the AFC playoffs.
John Harbaugh on Lamar Jackson: “He played a perfect game in terms of the passing game.” pic.twitter.com/6maD35ufwD
— Jamison Hensley (@jamisonhensley) December 31, 2023
“He played a perfect football game in terms of the passing game,” Harbaugh said, per ESPN.
Jackson's final stat line was quite impressive. He went 18-21 passing for 321 yards, with five touchdowns and no interceptions. Jackson also rushed the ball 6 times for 35 yards. Jackson finished with the most passing yards he had in a game since October 22, when he finished with 357 passing yards in a 38-6 victory for Baltimore over the Detroit Lions. The 56 points were also a season-high scoring output for the surging Ravens.
Jackson is now having his best year passing in his NFL career, with 3,357 yards. That's the most yards passing he has had since 2019, when he finished with 3,127. His completion percentage is also at a career high this season, with just over 66 percent. Jackson's passing has helped the Ravens immensely, as the team is now on a six-game winning streak.
The Ravens are now 13-3 on the season and looking like a team that is a serious Super Bowl contender. It's been more than a decade since Baltimore won a Super Bowl, and that was with Joe Flacco under center. The Ravens also won a Super Bowl in 2000.
The team has one game left in the regular season, against their division rival the Pittsburgh Steelers on Jan. 7. The Steelers are 8-7 on the year and need to win out plus get help to make the AFC playoffs as a wild card team. | https://clutchpoints.com/ravens-news-john-harbaugh-reacts-to-lamar-jacksons-perfect-game-vs-dolphins | 2024-01-01T03:29:18Z |

HALFTIME: Packers dominating Vikings 23-3 in battle to maintain playoff hopes
MINNEAPOLIS, Min. (WSAW) - In a battle where the winner stays alive in the playoff race, and the loser goes home, the Packers stay ahead of the Vikings 23-3 heading into halftime.
Anders Carlson kicked off the scoring with a 34-yard field goal just past halfway through the first. Seconds later, Vikings rookie quarterback Jaren Hall threw an interception to Carrington Valentine, tipped off the hands of tight end Johnny Mundt. The Packers offense immediately responded with a 33-yard touchdown toss from Jordan Love to Jayden Reed, making it 10-0 with five left in the first.
The Vikings finally responded with a 54-yard field goal from kicker Greg Joseph, making it a seven point game. But Jordan Love would one-up the field goal with his legs, rushing and diving in for a two-yard score to create a 17-3 lead. After a Karl brooks fumble recovery, the Packers brought in one last score via another Jayden Reed receiving touchdown, this time for 25 yards.
Love concluded the first half 14/21 with 180 passing yards and two touchdowns, while Hall finished 5/10, 67 yards, no touchdowns and an interception. Despite no Jaire Alexander, All-Pro wide receiver Justin Jefferson has just one catch for 13 yards. Aaron Jones has 13 carries for 64 yards.
The Vikings will receive the second half kickoff.

MINNEAPOLIS -- One play after Jayden Reed set the Green Bay Packers' record for receptions by a rookie with his 56th catch of the season, he snagged No. 57 for a 33-yard touchdown in Sunday's game against the Minnesota Vikings.

Sterling Sharpe previously held the team record for receptions by a rookie with 55. Reed's 57th catch was also his team-leading ninth touchdown of the season. This after Reed missed last week's game because of toe injury.
The touchdown pass traveled 33 yards downfield, the second-most air yards on a passing touchdown in Jordan Love's young career, behind only his 35 air yards at Pittsburgh in Week 10, according to ESPN Stats & Information.
It was all set up by cornerback Corey Ballentine's first career interception, which came in his 49th career NFL game. Ballentine was starting because of the suspension to Jaire Alexander and the hamstring injury to Eric Stokes.

The Santa Cruz Municipal Wharf will be closed again to the public on Saturday due to concerns over continuing hazardous weather conditions in the area, according to city officials.
The update was posted to the Santa Cruz Wharf’s official Instagram page Friday evening.
“As a preemptive measure the Wharf, Main & Cowell Beaches will be closed to Non-City personnel on Saturday 12-30-23 due to the forecasted ocean conditions,” the post said.
City staff will be present at the wharf throughout the day to monitor the situation and will provide updates as to when the wharf will reopen.
The wharf was shuttered on the morning of Dec. 28 after 30 ft. waves crashed onto walkways and damaged infrastructure. Pilings below the deck were damaged and a fire sprinkler loop system that connected to multiple businesses on the wharf was ruptured.
The wharf reopened to the public on Dec. 29 and city staff took initial assessments of the damage. Photos posted to social media by the City of Santa Cruz showed broken deck railings at the water’s edge and a caved-in walkway at the end of the pier.
The Dolphin Restaurant, which sits at the southernmost edge of the wharf, incurred significant damage to pilings located underneath the pier that support the building. Owner Mark Gilbert said that the building was leaning to one side and that it might end up being torn down. As of Dec. 29, Gilbert was waiting for a full assessment from city staff.
The National Weather Service issued a coastal flood warning for Saturday which includes the coastal areas of Santa Cruz, San Francisco, San Mateo, Monterey and Marin counties. 30 ft. waves are expected again and residents are warned to stay away from the coastline. The flood warning will extend until 2 p.m. local time on Saturday.

The Carolina Panthers have had a terrible, terrible season from hell, and it only hit a new low on Sunday.
Scoring zero points in a 26-0 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars — who were starting backup quarterback C.J. Beathard — as Bryce Young’s brutal rookie season comes to a near-close wasn’t even the worst part of the day.
Averaging 2.3 yards per play and not crossing 100 total yards until the fourth quarter wasn’t the lowest point of the day for the Panthers.
No, in a moment of what can (at best) be described as a brief loss of control, Panthers team owner David Tepper appeared to throw a drink at an unruly Jaguars fan who was in front of him toward the end of the game. Tepper's Panthers have been unequivocally the worst team in the league this year, but there is simply no excuse for this behavior in the middle of tough times — particularly from his perch as the owner of a NFL team.
"We are aware of the video and have no further comment at this time," the NFL said in a statement, according to Joe Person of The Athletic. The Panthers themselves, meanwhile, still haven't commented.
This is just flat-out a rotten way to behave. Fights have been ignited over throwing drinks on people. It’s one of the most disrespectful, non-physical things a human can do to another human. Alcohol with backwash all over a t-shirt or an expensive jersey ain’t cool, man. Especially amid the power dynamics of Tepper not just being a team owner, but one of the singularly richest people in the entire world.
Tepper might as well be an anonymous person on the internet in that scenario. He’s completely untouchable as a person of his financial and social stature. He would never suffer a real punishment for behaving in this fashion because there is nothing that the person who got the drink poured on him can do. It’s an abuse of power as much as it is just a lame thing to do.
To take it a step further, if this is how Tepper is acting in public, it's easy to see why the Panthers have had so many head coaches in the brief time that Tepper has owned the team. It was an illogical, rushed, emotional response that puts him and his decision making under further scrutiny and gives partial context as to why the Panthers have been so dysfunctional over the past few years. A rotating door of head coaches and their interim replacements, musical chairs at quarterback, trading up for Young when the roster clearly wasn't ready to support a rookie quarterback — and now, this unruly moment that has been caught on camera.
Panthers fans are already (kind of) joking about whether or not this moment can be used to strip Tepper of his ownership. That isn’t going to happen. It takes a lot more than that for someone to lose their team, but it does paint the picture of where this team is.
The Panthers are just 31-67 since Tepper took over in 2018 and he’s about to hire his third full-time head coach in that timespan with a roster that doesn’t appear anywhere close to competing, even in the dismal NFC South.
At some point Tepper is going to have to stumble into success by mistake, even with his rash and hasty decision-making.
The part here that resonates beyond football is that everyone knows Tepper won’t or can’t face real discipline through this due to the power he holds. When you’re this wealthy in America, this is sadly one of the perks afforded to you.
The only hope here is that Tepper can see this as a moment of weakness and hopefully make changes for himself that will make the Panthers a respected franchise again. It simply doesn’t have to be like this. | https://www.97xonline.com/news/national/david-teppers/RXRNEJBSH74R5H6QU5M4LSTN4A/ | 2024-01-01T03:29:23Z |
John Harbaugh has been doing well in dealing with his Baltimore Ravens this year. He lost a couple of weapons but managed to make Zay Flowers rise at his age. A lot of doubt surrounded Lamar Jackson but he turned him into an MVP candidate once again. They had issues with their line and secondary but all of them got fixed eventually. All of this culminated when they won over a hot Miami Dolphins team.
The Ravens' locker room was filled with celebration. Everyone was screaming. But, it was John Harbaugh who caught a lot of fans' eyes. His dancing was so meme-worthy and hilarious but no one in the team cared because it was their moment of triumph over the AFC, via Ari Meirov.
John Harbaugh celebrating in the #Ravens locker room is the best thing you'll watch today. 🤣pic.twitter.com/SoNMEOfqnH
— Ari Meirov (@MySportsUpdate) December 31, 2023
This celebration was more than earned. The Ravens steamrolled the Dolphins. Tua Tagovailoa and Mike McDaniel could not do anything about the blowout. Lamar Jackson had bombs for days. He was not forcing anything and it led to an efficient night where he just missed three passes out of 21 attempts. This got the Ravens 321 passing yards and five touchdowns.
Gus Edwards gave the Ravens a boost by rushing for 16 carries which netted the team 68 yards and one trip to the end zone. To round it out, Zay Flowers and Isaiah Likely popped off in the receiving corps. Flowers only had three receptions but it got them 106 receiving yards and six points on the board. Likely was also the Ravens' weapon of choice for the end zone. He got the team two touchdowns in just two receptions.
Geno Stone and Roqun Smith were the people who terrorized Tua Tagovailoa and the Dolphins' offense. Both snatched a pass from the opposing quarterback straight from the air for an interception.
Even was working hard in the flock. They deserve this. | https://clutchpoints.com/ravens-news-john-harbaughs-celebration-after-clinching-afcs-no-1-seed-must-see | 2024-01-01T03:29:24Z |

North Korea’s Kim orders military to ‘thoroughly annihilate’ US, South Korea if provoked
SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — North Korean leader Kim Jong Un ordered his military to “thoroughly annihilate” the United States and South Korea if provoked, state media reported Monday, after he vowed to boost national defense to cope with what he called an unprecedented U.S.-led confrontation.
Kim is expected to ramp up weapons tests in 2024 ahead of the U.S. presidential election in November. Many experts say he likely believes his expanded nuclear arsenal would allow him to wrest U.S. concessions if former President Donald Trump is reelected.
In a five-day major ruling party meeting last week, Kim said he will launch three more military spy satellites, produce more nuclear materials and develop attack drones this year in what observers say is an attempt to increase his leverage in future diplomacy with the U.S.
In a meeting on Sunday with commanding army officers, Kim said it is urgent to sharpen “the treasured sword” to safeguard national security, an apparent reference to his country’s nuclear weapons program. He cited “the U.S. and other hostile forces’ military confrontation moves,” according to the official Korean Central News Agency.
Kim stressed that “our army should deal a deadly blow to thoroughly annihilate them by mobilizing all the toughest means and potentialities without moment’s hesitation” if they opt for military confrontation and provocations against North Korea, KCNA said.
In his New Year’s Day address Monday, South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol said he will strengthen his military’s preemptive strike, missile defense and retaliatory capabilities in response to the North Korean nuclear threat.
“The Republic of Korea is building genuine, lasting peace through strength, not a submissive peace that is dependent on the goodwill of the adversary,” Yoon said, using South Korea’s official name.
At the party meeting, Kim called South Korea “a hemiplegic malformation and colonial subordinate state” whose society is “tainted by Yankee culture.” He said his military must use all available means including nuclear weapons to “suppress the whole territory of South Korea” in the event of a conflict.
South Korea’s Defense Ministry warned in response that if North Korea attempts to use nuclear weapons, South Korean and U.S. forces will punish it overwhelmingly, resulting in the end of the Kim government.
Experts say small-scale military clashes between North and South Korea could happen this year along their heavily armed border. They say North Korea is also expected to test-launch intercontinental ballistic missiles capable of reaching the mainland U.S. and other major new weapons.
In 2018-19, Kim met Trump in three rounds of talks on North Korea’s expanding nuclear arsenal. The diplomacy fell apart after the U.S. rejected Kim’s limited offer to dismantle his main nuclear complex in exchange for extensive reductions in U.S.-led sanctions.
Kim has since sought to modernize his weapons arsenal and strengthen North Korea’s relationships with China and Russia. KCNA said Kim and Chinese President Xi Jinping exchanged New Year’s Day messages on Monday on bolstering bilateral ties.
North Korea faces suspicions that it has supplied conventional arms for Russia’s war in Ukraine in return for sophisticated Russian technologies to enhance the North’s military programs.
Estimates of the size of North Korea’s nuclear arsenal vary, ranging from about 20-30 bombs to more than 100. Many foreign experts say North Korea still has some technological hurdles to overcome to produce functioning nuclear-armed ICBMs, though its shorter-range nuclear-capable missiles can reach South Korea and Japan.

DALLAS, Texas — Trailblazing longtime U.S. Rep. Eddie Bernice Johnson, a nurse from Texas who helped bring hundreds of millions of federal dollars to the Dallas area as the region's most powerful Democrat, died Sunday. She was 88.
President Joe Biden, Dallas Mayor Eric Johnson and many other leaders issued statements about her death after her son posted about it on Facebook. The Dallas Morning News also confirmed her death with an unnamed source close to the family. No cause of death was given.
Biden hailed her "immense courage" and called her "an icon and mentor to generations of public servants, through whom her legacy of resilience and purpose will endure."
"She was the single most effective legislator Dallas has ever had," the mayor said in a statement. "Nobody brought more federal infrastructure money home to our city. Nobody fought harder for our communities and our residents' interests and safety. And nobody knew how to navigate Washington better for the people of Dallas."
Eddie Bernice Johnson served in the House for three decades after becoming the first registered nurse elected to Congress and first Black chief psychiatric nurse at Dallas' Veterans Affairs hospital. She went on to become the first Black woman to chair the House Committee on Science, Space, and Technology, and she also led the Congressional Black Caucus. She left office in January after repeatedly delaying her retirement. Before Congress, she served in the Texas legislature.
"For three decades, Chairwoman Johnson was a powerful force in the United States Congress, always focused on the future," House Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi said in a statement, praising Johnson as "a tenacious trailblazer, a talented legislator and a devoted public servant."
Johnson used her committee leadership position to fight against Republican efforts to block action on climate change. Congressional Black Caucus Chair Steven Horsford said Johnson was also "a fierce advocate for expanding STEM opportunities to Black and minority students" who also played a key role in helping the Biden administration pass a major package of incentives for computer chip manufacturers.
She was born in Waco and grew up in the segregated South. Dallas' once-segregated Union Station was renamed in her honor in 2019.
Her own experience with racism helped spur her to get involved in politics. She recalled that officials at the VA hospital were shocked that she was Black after they hired her sight-unseen, so they rescinded their offer for her to live in a dorm on campus. She told The Dallas Morning News in 2020 that officials would go into patients' rooms ahead of her to "say that I was qualified."
"That was really the most blatant, overt racism that I ever experienced in my life," she told the newspaper.
Johnson nearly quit but decided to stick with it.
"It was very challenging," she said. "But any job where you're an African American woman entering for the first time would be a challenge. They had not hired one before I got there. Yes, it was a challenge, but it was a successful venture."

Beyoncé and Jay-Z are on the run again. Yes, Queen Bey and Mr. Carter are hitting the road again this summer, and of course, that includes a stop at Gillette Stadium.
While this is the third time Beyoncé has come through Foxboro in the past four years (and the second time Jay-Z has joined her), the pair's connection to Gillette Stadium and the football team that inhabits it goes well beyond tour stops. In honor of their return, we're looking back at the history of Beyoncé, Jay-Z and the Patriots.
https://twitter.com/espn/status/958758054664777728
If you listen carefully, you can find both Jay-Z and Beyoncé's songs floating around 1 Patriot Place all year long. The second Tom Brady's foot hits the Gillette Stadium field, "Public Service Announcement" blasts over the speakers. Jay-Z makes an appearance in "Tom vs. Time" while Tom is driving, and during the Super Bowl media availability, Tom listed him as one of his favorite artists.
He even used lyrics from "Tom Ford" as an Instagram caption. Now that's true fandom.
https://twitter.com/Patriots/status/946719961585631232

DENVER -- After a tumultuous, franchise-shifting week, the Denver Broncos relied Sunday on inexperienced quarterback Jarrett Stidham, who did just enough to lead the club to a 16-9 victory over the Los Angeles Chargers in Empower Field at Mile High.
Broncos coach Sean Payton shocked many this past Wednesday, including his players, when he benched Russell Wilson in search of a "spark'' in the team's offense and moved Stidham in as the starter. Sunday was Stidham's third career start in his four seasons in the league.
"Thought he was good, thought he was collected, calm," Payton said. "Thought he played with real good poise ... thought he was efficient in and out of the huddle, thought he made some good throws ... Thought he did great."
Stidham did not turn the ball over in a no-frills, 20-of-32 passing performance for 224 yards and a 54-yard, catch-and-run touchdown by wide receiver Lil'Jordan Humphrey, who broke several tackles on the play. Stidham had 95 of his passing yards on the play to Humphrey and another 41-yarder to Jerry Jeudy -- both in the first half -- to go with 129 yards on his 18 other completions in the game.
"Super excited, obviously, to get another opportunity," Stidham said. "This is my third opportunity to start ... so it hasn't been much, but obviously was super excited for the opportunity this week ... just tried to play with emotion and get a win, and thankfully, we did."
Stidham had 165 of his passing yards, as well as the touchdown throw to Humphrey, in the first half, and the Broncos never trailed in the game.
It capped an unexpected week for Stidham as Payton told the players in a Wednesday morning team meeting that Wilson would be benched and Stidham would start against the Chargers. Wilson, who said Friday he was told in the days following the Broncos' Oct. 29 win over Kansas City he would be benched if he didn't adjust some guaranteed money in his contract, was one of three team captains to go to midfield for the coin toss.
And that may have been the last steps he will take on the Broncos' homefield. Stidham said Wilson helped him throughout the week and that the two had an extended conversation the day Payton made the announcement.
"He said he was there for me -- anything I needed," Stidham said. "We were communicating on the sideline after drives and stuff. [I] can't speak highly enough about him --- I said that earlier this week. Great teammate, great person. He was super helpful throughout the week."
Payton was asked following the game if Wilson had been told by team officials he would be benched if he did not agree to adjust his contract. Payton said, as he did Friday, he was not "privy" to the specifics of those conversations, pointing to owner/CEO Greg Penner and general manager George Paton instead.
"When the season ends and you have questions specific to all of that -- I wasn't privy to the dialogue -- you'll be able to ask the appropriate people," Payton said. "Russ has been fantastic this week. I think this idea he and I, or we, don't have a good relationship or he's not a fit, all of that stuff comes from people further away from our program. He's approached this week like we expected, like a pro, that's it."
Wilson said Friday the Broncos approached him about waiving a guarantee in the five-year, $242.6 million contract he signed in 2022 that would give Wilson -- who is already guaranteed $39 million in 2024 -- another $37 million (his 2025 salary) if he could not pass a physical on the fifth day of the new league year in March.
Team sources have said they hoped to adjust the timing of the guarantee.
Given the benching as well as the stalemate over the contract issue, Wilson's future with the Broncos is in doubt, though Payton has maintained no decision on that has been made. Stidham, who signed a two-year, $10 million deal last March, is expected to get the start in the season finale against the Las Vegas Raiders.
He was asked Sunday if he felt like he would leave the impression that he could be the Broncos' starter in 2024.
"I'm just kind of focused on celebrating the win," Stidham said. "[I] have a bunch of family and stuff in town, so going to take the night to celebrate that, celebrate the New Year. That's all I can control for right this second." | https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/39220257/jarrett-stidham-denver-broncos-top-los-angeles-chargers | 2024-01-01T03:29:30Z |
Lamar Jackson's insane performance against the Miami Dolphins has many NFL fans agreeing that he's the MVP but he also made history, standing alone alongside an AFC legend. En route to the Raven's AFC clinching 56-19 rout of Miami, Lamar Jackson threw for 321 yards and 5 touchdowns on 18/21 passing.
Per the NFL Communications Department's Twitter, Jackson's performance along with his 158.3 rating made him the second player in NFL history that has achieved that statistical feat multiple times. The only other player that has done that before is Pittsburgh Steelers legend Ben Roethlisberger.
The @Ravens clinched the No. 1 overall seed in the AFC playoffs.
In today's win, @Lj_era8 recorded 5 TD passes & a 158.3 rating – the highest attainable mark. He joins Ben Roethlisberger as the only players in @NFL history with 5+ TD passes & a 158.3 rating in multiple games. pic.twitter.com/Lc6XVwcbRo

“The @Ravens clinched the No. 1 overall seed in the AFC playoffs. In today's win, @Lj_era8 recorded 5 TD passes & a 158.3 rating – the highest attainable mark. He joins Ben Roethlisberger as the only players in @NFL history with 5+ TD passes & a 158.3 rating in multiple games,” the @NFL345 account posted on Twitter/X.
The insane number further validates Lamar Jackson's sheer dominance at the quarterback position, amid various critics of his adept running ability and reluctance to only be a pocket passer. With today's performance, and his adept passing numbers this season, he's even proven Roethlisberger wrong in his assessment of his game.
Ben Roethlisberger on Lamar Jackson;
“You don’t fear him sitting in the pocket and picking you apart.”
Teams FEAR Lamar the runner MORE THAN the passer, but don’t use that to tear him down.
For example, Lamar’s Career Passer Rating and QBR in the pocket is better than Big Ben pic.twitter.com/vG0ib38Hka
— Robert Griffin III (@RGIII) April 13, 2023
In April, Roethlisberger made an appearance on the “Footbahlin” podcast and broached the topic of Jackson's pocket presence. Although he credited Lamar's talent, he said that defenses don't fear his accuracy.
“You don't really fear Lamar's accuracy all the time. He's got a huge arm, he can make things happen when he scrambles, but you don't fear him just sitting in the pocket and picking you apart. You bring safeties down because you do fear him running because he's a different-level runner.”
Jackson's accuracy and precision as a passer have been on full display this year. In addition to this afternoon's game, Jackson has a 67.2 completion percentage, the highest of his career with only his MVP season in 2019 having a number that is close (66.1 completion percentage). Jackson has surely been proving doubters of his arm talent wrong this season and sharing a statistical achievement with Roethlisberger is an even greater validator of his greatness.
The Ravens finish the regular season with a game against, ironically, the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 18. | https://clutchpoints.com/ravens-news-lamar-jackson-goes-full-ben-roethlisberger-in-insane-5-td-game-vs-dolphins | 2024-01-01T03:29:30Z |
When the 56-19 loss settled, the Miami Dolphins needed more than one glance into their proverbial mirrors.
Quarterback Tua Tagovailoa wished he had shifted his glance a little more quickly to see the defender in his receiver’s path on his first interception, and he wished he hadn’t tried to force a ball to Tyreek Hill over the linebacker who snatched the second.
Hill wished he hadn’t bobbled and then dropped a wide-open touchdown pass from Tagovailoa, one of six targets on which the duo failed to connect in the blowout loss.
Dolphins defenders wish they had tackled better in space, limiting or at least complicating the Baltimore Ravens’ display of run-in touchdowns.
And head coach Mike McDaniel wished he had pulled edge rusher Bradley Chubb earlier from an out-of-reach contest. Instead, with the Dolphins trailing by 30 points and less than 4 minutes to play in regulation, Chubb suffered a non-contact knee injury that required carting off.
“I would like a time machine, for sure, in that situation,” McDaniel said. “In hindsight, I would absolutely not have wanted him out there if I would have known he was going to get hurt.
“There’s times in football games where it’s not about winning or losing or ‘Can we come back?’ It's about finishing the football game and having a taste of what our expectations were going into it.”
The Dolphins’ expectations entering their visit to Baltimore and their reality traveling home at 11-5 veered far apart. Their playoff expectations now risk the same trajectory.
“Situations like this where you go into a game with full belief in each other and the eventual outcome … ends up monumentally in another direction, it’s a gut check for a football team,” McDaniel said. “We need to recalibrate, get back together and press forward together.
“Run from nothing. Own it.”
How the Dolphins unraveled vs. stifling Ravens
The Dolphins started off the game strong.
Tagovailoa connected with Hill, running back De’Von Achane and fullback Alec Ingold each for double-digit gains on the first drive alone. Facing third-and-goal from Baltimore’s 8, Tagovailoa pump-faked his first throw before nailing receiver Cedrick Wilson on a high-low concept that forced the Ravens’ defense to wonder whether Hill or Wilson was its intended receiver.
The Dolphins had found the end zone first. But Baltimore answered.
Despite Rashod Bateman failing to survive the ground on a 42-yard pass that was reversed and offensive pass interference nullifying a 26-yard completion to Justice Hill, Jackson distributed the ball a la Tagovailoa with chunk plays to three different targets on the way to the red zone. With 6:39 to play in the first, Jackson dropped back and let a ball rip amid pressure, finding Hill between two defenders on the right sideline for a 20-yard touchdown.
The Dolphins stayed alive with a Tyreek Hill 25-yard catch on fourth-and-5 their next drive but ultimately settled for a field goal.
Against the fourth-ranked scoring offense in the league, that’s not a winning formula.
Nor is turning the ball over.
Miami stayed competitive early, forcing a punt and scoring a pair of field goals. But after a seeming busted coverage allowed a 75-yard touchdown – cornerback Xavien Howard, injured on the first Ravens snap of the day, was missed – the game began veering off course for Miami.
Tagovailoa hurried to fit a play in before halftime and instead threw the first interception.
Miami’s special teams allowed a 78-yard punt return to start the second half, one of several factors in McDaniel’s postgame remark: “I’m confident saying before watching the film: We’re not going to be happy with the way we tackled in open space.”
And even when the Dolphins defense punched a ball loose from Ravens RB Gus Edwards, the optimism was short-lived.
Tagovailoa’s second interception was the next play.
The Dolphins could expect nothing different from the NFL's most takeaway-happy group.
“With circumstances within the game, there was a play or two where maybe we were forcing something,” McDaniel said. “Defensively, they’ve been very opportunistic. We knew that, and ultimately, we played right into their hands.”
A day Tyreek Hill described as “one of the worst games of my career” became the Dolphins’ worst loss of the season, and a day on which Miami was shorthanded due to injuries merited less sympathy when considering the Ravens’ bill of health.
Baltimore was missing its starting right guard, star tight end, two running backs and a cornerback.
Ravens linebacker Roquan Smith, who intercepted and returned a pass 30 yards in addition to seven tackles and another deflection, said Baltimore couldn’t dwell on that or their short week after a Monday night game across the country.
“It’s just adversity,” Smith said. “Look adversity in the face, and like I always tell the guys – chin up, chest out. We don't bow down for anything. Do all you can do. People make excuses with adversity and we just produce.
“Life is not about excuses. It's about what you do and play the cards that you’re dealt.”
The Dolphins best heed that advice.
After Ravens crush Miami, are Dolphins’ playoff hopes at stake?
Tagovailoa, despite taking a hit to his throwing shoulder on a fourth-quarter scramble, was healthy enough to address reporters after the game and seems on schedule to complete his fully available season.
Based on the cart, non-contact nature of injury and shellshock in Dolphins players’ voices, Chubb seems unlikely to play next week or in the postseason.
So sure, in a regular-season finale with the AFC East title on the line, Miami won’t be at full saddle. Neither will Buffalo nor any team the Dolphins face in the postseason.
What the franchise needs to do is better adjust to its personnel shifts and better scheme for its available players. Miami did that well in the run game Sunday, when Achane took the lead role in place of the injured Raheem Mostert, Achane contributing a game-high 137 yards and one touchdown.
But Miami’s passing attack was far too inconsistent, as Tagovailoa completed 57.9% of his passes compared to his league-leading 70.5% mark across the season. (For context, 51 quarterbacks who have attempted at least 50 passes have attempted more than 57.9%.)
Baltimore gashed the Dolphins defense for 491 total yards, a season-worst allowance along with the 56-point output.
Sure, as fairly said after the Ravens dismantled the 49ers, most teams cannot attack and maintain pressure at the rate which Baltimore can.
But the Dolphins have dabbled in Super Bowl-contender conversations, and it’s unlikely they’ll be able to reach that goal without besting Baltimore. It’s unlikely they’ll be able to win any remaining regular or postseason game with the suppressed performance all three phases produced Sunday.
“Everything’s still in front of us,” Tagovailoa said, but achieving it will require much more than Miami showed with the chance to clinch the division on the line.
Tagovailoa preached the importance of consistency after the Dolphins played well enough through one quarter to win but not through four.
Then, he tapped into the glass-half-full perspective as he moved forward.
“If you have the perspective of things could be worse – we could not have clinched the playoff berth, we could not have been playing in a game like this that mattered for positioning with the seeding,” Tagovailoa said. “So if you think of it like that, we’re right where we need to be as a team, regardless of the outcome today.
“We’ll be better for it and hopefully get to see these guys again.” | https://www.97xonline.com/news/national/whats-next-dolphins/XC7WHVG4HWAGZHXQNLPWQ3ULU4/ | 2024-01-01T03:29:30Z |

As the new year approaches, many individuals are gearing up for resolutions aimed at enhancing their well-being. However, research suggests that diving headfirst into major changes can lead to quick burnout. This article explores the benefits of starting with small, achievable goals to build momentum gradually and increase the likelihood of maintaining healthier habits throughout the coming year. Research highlights that small achievements activate the brain's reward circuitry, releasing feel-good chemicals that boost confidence and self-esteem. This intrinsic motivation becomes a driving force for maintaining new habits. By embracing manageable goals now, individuals can pave the way for a smoother transition into their New Year's health resolutions.
Start your day by hydrating your body. Placing a water bottle or glass next to your coffee machine encourages a healthy morning routine. Acknowledging this simple act sets a positive tone for the day.
Improve your diet gradually by incorporating one additional vegetable daily. This can be as easy as adding spinach to a smoothie or enjoying kale chips as a snack. Small dietary changes lay the groundwork for healthier eating habits.
For those averse to traditional exercise, commit to just 5 minutes of movement daily. This could involve activities like marching in place or a short walk around the block. Lowering exercise expectations makes it easier to stay motivated and gradually increase activity.
Take a proactive approach to fitness by scheduling weekly workouts on Sundays. Spending a few minutes planning "me" time for exercise in your calendar fosters commitment and offers a reason to celebrate this intentional act.
Cultivate a positive self-relationship by investing time in self-reflection. Journaling or reading a self-improvement book before bed encourages connection with thoughts and feelings, contributing to overall mental well-being.
Address physical tension by committing to a daily stretch for a specific body part. Whether it's neck stretches or hip-opening exercises, dedicating a few minutes to ease stiffness fosters bodily awareness and flexibility.
Combat stress and unhealthy habits by dedicating 5 minutes nightly to self-care. This could involve meditation, deep breathing, journaling, or engaging in a relaxing beauty routine. Prioritizing personal well-being before bedtime contributes to better sleep and overall health.
Embarking on a journey towards healthier living in the upcoming year doesn't have to be an abrupt and overwhelming process. By focusing on small, manageable goals now, individuals can cultivate a sense of achievement, boost motivation, and lay the foundation for successful resolutions in 2024. These simple habits, when incorporated gradually, set the stage for a healthier and more resilient lifestyle in the months to come. | https://www.thehealthsite.com/fitness/building-momentum-small-habits-for-a-healthy-start-in-2024-1049967/ | 2024-01-01T03:29:32Z |

(NEW YORK) — Hundreds of sealed court filings pertaining to the late sex-offender Jeffrey Epstein are set to be made public this week, and several prominent names — including Britain’s Prince Andrew and former President Bill Clinton — are expected to appear in the documents.
U.S. District Judge Loretta Preska ruled earlier this month there was no legal justification for continuing to conceal the ex-president’s name and more than 150 names other “John and Jane Does” mentioned in the records. Preska ordered the unsealing to begin after Jan. 1.
The documents stem from a 2015 civil lawsuit centered on allegations that Epstein’s one-time paramour, Ghislaine Maxwell, facilitated the sexual abuse of Virginia Giuffre, an alleged trafficking victim. Giuffre also accused Epstein and Maxwell of directing her to have sex with Prince Andrew and several other prominent men. Prince Andrew denied the allegations and claimed he could not recall ever meeting Giuffre. He later settled a lawsuit she filed against him.
Most of the prominent names that appear in the documents are already associated in some way with Epstein; for allegations of wrongdoing, for having worked for Epstein, flown on his planes, or visited his homes. Some were mentioned during Maxwell’s criminal trial in 2021. In some instances, the only appearances of the names are in potential witness lists or in proposed terms for searches of electronic records.
While Giuffre’s allegations against Prince Andrew, and his denials, have been widely reported around the globe, dozens of the sealed records are expected to contain additional details from “Jane Doe 162,” a witness who testified she was with Prince Andrew, Maxwell and Giuffre, then 17, at Epstein’s New York mansion. Giuffre has alleged that gathering, in 2001, was one of the occasions she was directed to have sex with Andrew.
Giuffre made no allegations of wrongdoing by Clinton, and there is no indication the sealed records contain evidence of illegal conduct by Clinton. But Giuffre’s claim that she met the ex-president on Epstein’s private Caribbean island emerged as a contentious issue in the litigation, which was settled in 2017. Maxwell contended Clinton had never been to Little St. James — as Epstein’s island was known — and assailed Giuffre’s claim as a fabrication that shattered her credibility.
Personal flight logs kept by one of Epstein’s pilots — which surfaced in separate lawsuits against Epstein — showed that Clinton and his entourage had flown extensively on Epstein’s jumbo-jet to international destinations such as Paris, Bangkok and Brunei in 2002 and 2003. But none of the available records included the former president on a trip to Epstein’s island.
The court documents to be unsealed this week represent the eighth, and likely final, round of unsealing records from the case since the Miami Herald intervened for access to the records in 2018. Previously unsealed items included multiple deposition transcripts of Maxwell and Giuffre, along with sworn, but unproven, allegations that Epstein and Maxwell directed Giuffre to have sex with several well-known men, including former Senate Majority Leader George Mitchell, the late model scout Jean Luc Brunel, billionaire hedge fund manager Glenn Dubin, and others.
Maxwell denied the allegations, as did all of the men identified by Giuffre when their names surfaced.
This batch will involve the names of additional Epstein associates, alleged perpetrators, alleged co-conspirators, alleged victims, witnesses and former Epstein employees. Several of the “Does” mentioned in the documents are now deceased.
Former President Clinton, who ABC News has learned is identified as “Doe 36,” is mentioned in more than fifty of the redacted filings, according to court records. Several of those sealed or redacted entries are focused on an effort by Giuffre’s lawyers in mid-2016, first reported by ABC News, to subpoena the two-term Democratic president for deposition testimony about his relationship with Epstein.
According to portions of the court record that were not sealed, Giuffre’s legal team initiated informal discussions with attorneys for the then-unnamed witness on June 9, 2016. That was a few days after the former president’s wife, Hillary Clinton, clinched the Democratic nomination for president.
Representatives for Giuffre did contact the former president’s attorneys in 2016 about a potential deposition, a person familiar with the situation told ABC News. Clinton’s lawyers responded that his testimony would not be helpful to Giuffre because, the person said, the former president had never been on Epstein’s island, as she had claimed.
Maxwell called the move to question Clinton “utter nonsense” and a “transparent ploy by [Giuffre] to increase media exposure for her sensational stories through deposition side-show,” her attorney Laura Menninger wrote, according to an unredacted section of a court filing.
Giuffre’s legal team, in contrast, described the proposed testimony of Clinton as “highly relevant” and “important to the fundamental claims and defenses” in the case. The request was ultimately denied by U.S. District Judge Robert Sweet, in a redacted ruling in late June 2016.
Giuffre’s lawyers pressed the Clinton issue again at a hearing in March 2017, six weeks before a trial was scheduled to begin. According to a publicly available transcript, Giuffre’s team was then seeking to preclude Maxwell’s side from presenting testimony suggesting that Clinton hadn’t been on Epstein’s island. Her attorneys argued it would be “inherently unfair” to Giuffre because they had not been permitted to ask the former president if he had ever been to Little St. James, as Epstein’s private island estate was known.
“You did not allow us to depose him because you said it was irrelevant,” McCawley told Judge Sweet. “So now we’re in a position where at trial they want to put forth that information against my client, and I don’t have an under-oath statement from that individual saying whether or not he actually was,” she added.
Maxwell’s attorneys, according to the transcript, told the court Maxwell was prepared to take the stand and testify that Clinton was never on the island.
But because the trial never occurred, Giuffre’s motion to exclude testimony about Clinton was left unresolved. More information about the debate over the issue could become public in the documents to be unsealed.
Clinton’s name is also expected to be unsealed in filings surrounding separate efforts by Maxwell and Giuffre to compel Epstein to answer questions. The disgraced financier invoked his constitutional rights against self-incrimination to every inquiry during a September 2016 deposition, as he had done many times before in civil lawsuits against him.
According to a procedure established by Preska, attorneys for each of the “Does” were offered a preview of the court files containing their name before determinations were made about unsealing the records. Each person was afforded an opportunity to argue for keeping the records sealed. Clinton’s legal team, after reviewing the excerpts, did not lodge any objections to the publication of the documents, according to Preska’s order last month.
A spokesperson for Clinton declined to comment for this story.
Clinton’s association with Epstein was first noted publicly in 2002, after reporters learned of the former president’s journey that year on the mysterious multi-millionaire’s jet for a humanitarian mission to multiple African nations. Clinton told New York magazine through a spokesman at the time that “Jeffrey is both a highly successful financier and a committed philanthropist with a keen sense of global markets and an in-depth knowledge of twenty-first-century science.”
“I especially appreciated his insights and generosity during the recent trip to Africa to work on democratization, empowering the poor, citizen service, and combating HIV/AIDS,” the statement said.
Clinton’s representatives have said the former president cut off contact with Epstein in 2005, before the financier came under investigation in Palm Beach, Florida, for allegedly luring underage girls to his seaside mansion for illicit, sexualized massages.
When Epstein first faced potential federal prosecution a few years later, one of the disgraced financier’s lawyers wrote to prosecutors to tout Epstein’s pedigree as “part of the original group that conceived of the Clinton Global Initiative,” according to a 2007 letter attached to a court filing several years later.
Following Epstein’s arrest for child sex trafficking in 2019, a spokesperson for Clinton, Angel Ureña, said in a statement that the former president “knows nothing” about Epstein’s crimes. “He’s not spoken to Epstein in well over a decade,” the statement added, “and has never been to Little St. James Island, Epstein’s ranch in New Mexico, or his residence in Florida.”
Subsequent reporting after Epstein’s death has revealed that Epstein and Maxwell attended a 1993 reception for donors to the non-profit White House Historical Association. The smiling pair are seen greeting the president at the White House in photos unearthed from the archives of the Clinton Presidential Library in Arkansas.
Giuffre, now a 40-year-old mother living in Australia, filed the action against Maxwell in September 2015, alleging that the former British socialite defamed her when her publicist issued a statement referring to Giuffre’s allegations as “obvious lies.”
A substantial portion of the filings in the case were originally placed under seal or with heavy redactions under sweeping court orders intended to shield the identities of alleged victims, people not accused of wrongdoing, and “absent third-parties” facing allegations that could “implicate and potentially irreparably intrude on the privacy of individuals not present” before the court.
The morning after the first set of documents was unsealed by a federal appeals court in 2019, Epstein died by hanging in his jail cell in Manhattan, where he was being held pending trial on charges of child sex-trafficking and conspiracy. The New York Medical Examiner ruled the death a suicide and a Justice Department Inspector General report concurred with that determination.
Maxwell was convicted in 2021 on five of six counts related to the abuse and trafficking of underage girls. After the verdict, Maxwell’s attorneys cited her connection to former President Clinton’s charitable work as part of her effort for a reduced sentence, including a claim of “helping develop the Clinton Global Initiative,” according to a sentencing memo filed with the court.
Maxwell was sentenced to a 20-year prison term. She is appealing her conviction.

WYOMING, Mich. — Two people were injured after an argument at a Walmart store in Michigan escalated into gunfire on Sunday, authorities said.
The man and woman who were shot suffered injuries that were not considered to be life-threatening, WXMI-TV reported.
The shooting took place at about 6 p.m. in the city of Wyoming, police spokesperson Lt. Andrew Koeller said.

Police said there was an altercation between the two suspects and the male victim, according to WZZM-TV. The shooting took place in the front of the store near the checkout lanes. The male victim was shot; the woman was not a target, the television station reported.
The suspects fled the scene, police said. Both men were wearing masks, WOOD-TV reported.
“This is a brazen public attack. This is not something that we would tolerate, this is not something that should occur,” Koeller told reporters. “And we encourage the public to give any information in help solving this brazen crime and like I mentioned, unfortunately, an innocent bystander was struck. Two people were struck and that’s completely unfortunate.”
It is unclear what led to the altercation between the suspects and the man, WOOD-TV reported. It was also unclear whether the suspects and the male victim knew one another, according to the television station. | https://www.97xonline.com/news/trending/2-injured-shooting-walmart-michigan/2APDDUBCZ5DPXFFTF2PICOVLRU/ | 2024-01-01T03:29:37Z |

The Baltimore Ravens are in complete control against the Miami Dolphins, inching closer and closer to a win that would clinch the #1 seed in the AFC, but in their secondary, the Ravens were dealt a major injury blow that could potentially impact them in a very big way as the calendar turns to 2024 and the Ravens prepare for the NFL Playoffs.
“Ravens CB Marlon Humphrey has been ruled OUT with his calf injury,” according to a tweet from NFL Network insider Cameron Wolfe.
Marlon Humphrey, a 1st round pick of the Ravens back in 2017, missed the first four games of the 2023 season as he was returning from a foot injury that required surgery in the offseason. Then, after returning for a month's worth of action, he was sidelined for an additional two games in the middle of the season with a calf injury that now seems to be hampering him again today.
Humphrey is the 56th-ranked cornerback in the league according to Pro Football Focus, and coming off a game last week against San Francisco in which he secured his first interception of the season. Statistically, Baltimore has the best defense in the NFL, as they lead the league in points allowed, turnovers forced, passing touchdowns allowed and yards per pass attempt.
Marlon Humphrey's absence would not necessarily be a death blow to a Ravens team that looks poised to potentially make a run to their third Super Bowl appearance in franchise history, but at this point in the year, every single road block or hurdle could be all it takes to end a team's Lombardi dreams. | https://clutchpoints.com/ravens-news-marlon-humphrey-quickly-ruled-out-another-calf-injury | 2024-01-01T03:29:43Z |
(NEW YORK) — For at least a decade, Chris Van Bibber had been prevented from donating blood.
The 35-year-old from Salt Lake City, Utah — who is openly gay — was restricted due to rules set in place by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) that did not allow sexually active gay men from donating.
However, this past May, the FDA dropped all restrictions specific to gay and bisexual men donating blood, moving to a new blood donation risk assessment tool that is the same for every donor regardless of how they identify, which rolled out in August.
This meant that Van Bibber was able to make history as he donated blood at the American Red Cross Blood Donation Center in his home city.
“To sit back in that chair and to go through the questionnaire beforehand, and it was just — I felt so much excitement and so much relief that we were finally here,” Van Bibber told ABC News. “I just felt like I was finally able to do my part and it’s a small thing to do that can make such a big difference.”
The new policy is one that public health experts and gay rights activists said had been a long time coming.
Ban on gay and bisexual men donating
In the early days of the HIV/AIDS epidemic, blood donations were not able to screen for HIV, which led to some cases of HIV via transfusion. This led to the FDA instituting a lifetime ban on gay and bisexual men from donating blood as well as women who have sex with men who have sex with men.
“That was really based not on an individual person’s risk, but more so on belonging to a particular group and some of that, at the initial onset, you could say was based on what we were seeing with regard to the impact of HIV on specific communities, namely, gay and bisexual men,” Ayako Miyashita Ochoa, an adjunct professor at the UCLA Luskin School of Public Affairs, told ABC News.
“We quickly got to a place where we were able to test all blood donations universally for HIV. That policy became outdated…and yet we did not see a change in the policies related to this permanent ban or permanent deferral,” she continued.
In 2015, the blanket ban was repealed but the FDA placed restrictions that men who have sex with men could donate if they were abstinent from sex for at least one year. In 2020, this was shortened to a period of 90 days of abstinence.
Scientists and advocates argued that not having policies that backed science was discriminating.
“I think it’s safe to say that the policy was so incredibly blunt,” Miyashita Ochoa said. “And it was so group-based, identity-based specifically, that it was a tool for furthering stigma and discrimination.”
‘It felt very invasive’
For Van Bibber, the desire to donate blood is partly due to family history. His mother, Sheri, suffered a life-threatening medical complication when he was born and needed a blood donation to save her life.
Van Bibber said he grew up understanding the significance of blood donation, especially because his blood type is O-negative and can be used in transfusions for any blood type.
Sheri works for the Red Cross organizing blood drives so his family would donate regularly. However, he said he felt like an outsider compared to the rest of his family who was able to donate while he wasn’t.
“It felt very limiting and very invasive of my personal life that I wouldn’t be able to donate or give back in the way that I wanted to,” Van Bibber said. “Donating blood and knowing the importance of that has been a part of our family for since I’ve been alive and so to not be able to participate, not be able to do my right in giving back, it was certainly discerning.”
Blood donation rule change
This year, the FDA announced it would no longer be issuing blanket bans due to sexual orientation and instead screen potential donors on their risk of contracting and transmitting HIV, with the policy going into effect in August.
At the time, the federal health agency said it would use “gender-inclusive, individual risk-based questions” without compromising “the safety or availability of the blood supply.”
Questionnaires ask all donors about new or multiple sexual partners in the past three months. Those who have had a new sexual partner or multiple partners in the past three months and a history of anal sex during that time period will be deferred. Those taking medications to treat or prevent HIV infection will also be deferred. The new blood donation risk assessment is the same for every donor regardless of how they identify.
It follows several other Western countries that have recently dropped bans or eased restrictions including the United Kingdom, France, Greece and the Netherlands.
Van Bibber said when he first heard the FDA was considering making the policy change, he was initially wary, but he was excited when it was made official.
“I was a little leery just because I wanted to know, how are they going to make that change and is it truly going to be inclusive and how are they going to involve everybody?” he said. “And as it finally rolled out, and I read the requirements before I went to go donate, I sat there, and I’m like, ‘This is how we do it. This is absolutely the first step to take, and science is going to keep working with us and it’s only going to go up from here.'”
Experts said this new policy focuses on individual risk, taking into account that many donors are monogamous, test HIV negative and practice safe sex.
“I think that the individual risk-based assessment now gives us a chance to step away from sort of blanket decisions around the risks related to donation,” Miyashita Ochoa said. “I think that we are moving to a place where our policies are reflecting better the science and certainly our expectations as a society to not discriminate.”
Experts are also hopeful that more donors will help address the blood supply. On Sept. 11 of this year, the American Red Cross declared a national blood shortage, stating the blood supply level had dropped nearly 25% since early August.
While blood donations have increased since then, it can take weeks for levels to rebound, the Red Cross said.
More work to be done
Van Bibber said the response from the LGBTQ community has been positive with people coming forward to donate who didn’t realize they were now eligible or sharing their own first-time donation experience.
However, he and others say there is more work to be done. One way to make blood donation even more inclusive would be to expand eligibility to those on a medication called PrEP (pre-exposure prophylaxis, which is a daily pill containing two medications that prevent HIV-negative patients from being infected, they said.
“While we definitely don’t want any donors to stop taking their medication because it’s important for HIV prevention and treatment, but more data is needed to understand how these medications impact testing and eligibility,” Dr. Baia Lasky, a divisional chief medical officer with the American Red Cross, told ABC News.
Miyashita Ochoa said she hopes the risk assessment convinces more people not only to reduce stigma but encourage more people to donate.
“These questionnaires are intended to keep our blood supply safe and so while you may feel some discomfort being asked about your sexual health risks, we have to maintain the safety of our blood supply,” she said.
“So please support this effort to move towards this individual risk-based assessment and understand that beyond just addressing stigma and discrimination, this is about education. And this is about an opportunity to participate in a more just in a more right scientific assessment of risk. We can all do our part,” she added.

The Centre on December 31 rejected as "baseless" Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann's criticism of the BJP-led government for not including the State's tableau in the Republic Day parade 2024 and his allegations of discrimination.
The AAP leader recently attacked the Central government for allegedly discriminating against Punjab and said that both Punjab and Delhi were excluded from the list of States whose tableaux have been selected for the parade on January 26.
In its response, the Ministry of Defence issued a statement saying tableaux proposals from States and Union territories and Central ministries or departments are evaluated by an "expert committee" comprising eminent persons in the fields of art, culture, painting, sculpture, music, architecture and choreography among others.
"The tableau proposal of Punjab was considered in first three rounds of meeting of the Expert Committee. After the third round of meeting, the tableau of Punjab could not be taken forward by the Expert Committee for further consideration for not aligning to the broader themes of this year's tableau," it said.
The defence ministry also said that States and UTs not selected for the Republic Day parade 2024 were being invited to showcase their tableaux in Bharat Parv at the Red Fort from January 23-31 in accordance with an MoU signed with the States and UTs.

However, Mr. Mann categorically stated that Punjab would not showcase its tableaux in Bharat Parv. In a post in Punjabi on 'X', Mr. Mann said the State's tableau, which was to showcase the sacrifices made by freedom fighters such as Bhagat Singh, Rajguru, Sukhdev and Lala Lajpat Rai, will not be sent to 'rejected categories'.
The defence ministry further said that due to the time allotted for tableaux in the overall duration of the parade, shortlisting is done by the expert committee to ensure the participation of the best ones.
For the Republic Day parade 2024, 30 States and UTs had shown willingness to participate, including Punjab and West Bengal, it said.
"Out of these 30 States/UTs, like every year, only 15-16 States/UTs will be finally selected to present their tableaux in the Republic Day Parade 2024," the statement added.
The statement further stated that as per the MoU Punjab and Delhi have signed with the government of India, States have agreed to display their tableau in the Republic Day parade in one of the three years starting from January 26, 2024.
"Hence their criticism of not being selected this year (2024) is not objective and unfounded," it said.
The ministry added that the tableau of Punjab was shortlisted for the Republic Day Parade from 2017 to 2022, six times in the last eight years.
"As States have to be treated equally, it is essential that states should be given the opportunity to display their tableaus as per a formula. Government of India is preparing a three-year programme covering all States/UTs which will be shared with all the States/UTs. Hence, the criticism by these states is baseless," it asserted.
The defence ministry also referred to West Bengal in the statement.
"The tableau proposal of West Bengal was considered in first two rounds of meeting of the Expert Committee. After the second round of meeting, the tableau of West Bengal could not be taken forward by the Expert Committee for further consideration for not aligning to the broader themes of this year's tableau," it said.
The statement added that West Bengal's tableau was shortlisted in 2016, 2017, 2019, 2021 and 2023 – five times in the last eight years. | https://www.thehindu.com/news/national/other-states/centre-rejects-as-baseless-bhagwant-manns-criticism-for-excluding-punjab-tableau-from-r-day-parade/article67694519.ece | 2024-01-01T03:29:43Z |
Rapid reactions: Cardinals deliver early New Year’s gift to fans

The Arizona Cardinals picked up their fourth win of the season and made a huge impact on the NFC playoff picture by beating the Eagles, 35-31, in Philadelphia on Sunday.
Kyler Murray threw for 232 yards in the win with three touchdowns and a pick-six. James Conner and the running game keyed the victory, as the former Pitt man ran for 128 yards and a score while Michael Carter added 61 yards out of the backfield.
Greg Dortch had seven catches for 82 yards, including a crucial 36-yard grab on the final drive of the game to set up Conner’s touchdown run.
Arizona Sports’ hosts, editors and reporters gave their biggest takeaways from the Cardinals’ win.
Vince Marotta, co-host of Bickley & Marotta: The Eagles’ fan base had this New Year’s Eve game circled on the calendar since the NFL schedule was released in the Spring. A chance to take out all the frustrations of a disappointing Super Bowl loss to the Kansas City Chiefs on the man solely responsible for said defeat — Jonathan Gannon.
Gannon, of course, infuriated Philly fans by accepting the Cardinals’ head coach position the day after the Super Bowl, indicating, of course, that JG was checked out and in job interview mode instead of devising a defensive game plan to slow down the Chiefs.
In the immortal words of Nelson Muntz, Springfield’s bully in The Simpsons, “HA HA!”
Gannon’s Cardinals didn’t just go into Philadelphia and ruin the Eagles’ chances to win the NFC East, they DOMINATED the game. They kept the ball for nearly 40 minutes. They ran 30 more offensive plays. They ran the ball at will. And they overcame a potentially back-breaking 99-yard pick six in the first half.
One ingredient of this game I loved was it was the first sign of Murray building chemistry with his group of wide receivers. In his first six games, Murray had connected on only 43 percent of his targets to wideouts. Sunday at Lincoln Financial Field, Murray targeted Dortch, Wilson and Rondale Moore a total of 17 times. He completed 15 of those throws for 143 yards and a touchdown. Dortch continues to be a playmaker. Wilson, who was the “target” on the ill-fated pick-six, stepped up big time and caught the game-tying touchdown on a huge fourth down play.
Murray, outside of the miscommunication on the interception, was better than he’s been all season. His best throw, in my opinion, was his 12-yard connection with Moore on a 2nd-and-9 on the last play before the two-minute warning while facing a collapsing pocket. That drive ended in Conner’s 2-yard touchdown run with :32 left to seal the deal.
I’m ecstatic for Gannon. He’s spent the last 10 months wearing the label of scapegoat for an entire fan base. This is a huge win for him and his young staff and for a team that very well may have planted a seed for what’s to come in 2024.
Dave Burns, co-host of Burns & Gambo: What were YOU rooting for? A redeeming win for Gannon after he was vilified for the Eagles Super Bowl loss? Or a better draft pick? Personally, I was rooting for the pick. Not because there’s a particular guy I want near the top of the draft. I want options, as many as I can get. The higher you pick the more you have. Besides, the Cardinals had already proven they weren’t tanking. Murray had already played his best game since his return from injury. Conner and Wilson had already impacted the game. All of those things would still be true if they had lost.
That said, it’s impossible to not be happy for Gannon. He got entirely too much grief for how things ended in Philly; scapegoated to the point of absurdity. For his team to get the win and inject that level of insecurity and doubt into the fan base of his former employer has got to be immensely satisfying, whether he’ll admit it or not.
Speaking of satisfaction, Murray has to be feeling the rush of vindication after his performance, one in which he was nearly perfect in the second half of the game. I have no idea what the Cardinals would have done had they finished with the second pick in the draft – and who knows they still might – but it feels like that ship has sailed. Jumping from the 4th pick to the 2nd with one game left seems a mighty tall task. He quite possibly just played the Cardinals out of the possibility of drafting his replacement, and that was always the risk of playing him in the first place. But if they missed out on a possible quarterback AND Marvin Harrison Jr. then this will be a win that could reverberate for some time.
Luke Lapinski, co-host of Wolf & Luke: Now Philly has a loss they can actually blame on Jonathan Gannon. And considering the storylines coming into this one and what was on the line for the Eagles, this has to be the Cardinals’ most impressive win since 2021. Did I mention it came on the road in an extremely hostile environment too?
Arizona didn’t punt once — just the second time they’ve managed that in 60 years. And aside from one long, potentially destructive pick six, the Cards torched Gannon’s former defense to the tune of 449 yards and 35 points. The same defense that Philadelphia fans so loudly proclaimed would be better off without JG this season.
All week long the Cardinals said they had to treat this just like any other game. That they couldn’t get too caught up in the Gannon-and-Nick-Rallis-going-back-to-Philly-on-New-Year’s-Eve storyline. And maybe that was true to a certain extent. But now that it’s over, you can’t tell me this win wasn’t just a little sweeter than most.
Granted, this isn’t great for Arizona’s draft position. The Cardinals just went from picking second to picking fourth with one game left and that likely means they won’t even be able to get Harrison in April. That’s significant. But Murray looked good, this depleted roster is 3-4 since he came back from a bad injury and they’re clearly still buying in and going all out for Gannon and this coaching staff. They finally have some intangibles working in their favor, and that definitely wasn’t the case at the end of the 2022 season.
Tyler Drake, Arizona Sports’ Cardinals reporter and Cardinals Corner co-host: Congratulations, Cardinals fans. You just watched Arizona’s defining win of 2023.
Jonathan Gannon returned to Philadelphia, stuck to his guns and walked out of with the biggest win of his career hands down. It’s a credit to the head coach’s mentality throughout the season of being where your feet are and playing for the guy next to you.
Everything this new regime has preached in Year 1 was on display on Sunday: Accountability, football character, grit, team-first mentality, violence and smarts.
Oh yeah, and Murray solidified his case as Arizona’s no-doubt franchise QB. Not only did he throw three second-half touchdowns, he lifted his teammates up despite some early miscommunication. He 100% fit the bill for what this team needs from its QB.
Give Conner his flowers if you haven’t already. He is very much the heart and soul of this offense and team as a whole. And when he eats, everyone else does.
Shoutout to Carter, too. The running back provided a great second punch to Conner and flashed his shiftiness. More of that moving forward, please.
Also, keep playing Dortch on offense! | https://arizonasports.com/story/3540597/rapid-reactions-cardinals-eagles-defining-win/ | 2024-01-01T03:29:43Z |
A Colorado woman accused of killing two of her children and injuring a third was arrested in the United Kingdom on Saturday, authorities said.
According to the Colorado Springs Police Department, Kimberlee Singler, 35, of Colorado Springs, was arrested in the United Kingdom “without incident,” The Denver Post reported. No other details about the arrest were immediately available and the exact location where Singler was arrested was unclear, according to KUSA-TV.
Authorities issued an arrest warrant for Singler on murder and attempted murder charges after her 7-year-old son and 9-year-old daughter were found dead in a home on Dec. 19, while her 11-year-old daughter was hospitalized.
According to KUSA, the children’s father, Kevin Wentz, identified the deceased children as Aden Wentz, 7; and Elianna “Ellie” Wentz, 9.

— The Denver Post (@denverpost) December 31, 2023
Police had responded to a report of a burglary at the residence, but it turned out to be unfounded, according to The Associated Press.
Singler initially cooperated with authorities but then went missing as the investigation progressed, Colorado Springs Police Department spokesperson Ira Cronin said. She was last seen on Dec. 23, police said.
On Dec. 26, police issued a warrant for Singler’s arrest on four counts of first-degree murder, two counts of attempted first-degree murder, three counts of child abuse and one count of first-degree assault, KUSA reported.
The 11-year-old girl was hospitalized for a few days before being released, Cronin said. She is recovering in Colorado Springs, according to the AP.
The children’s deaths came during a legal battle between Singler and her ex-husband over parenting time and other issues, the AP reported, citing court filings. Hearings had been scheduled for next month.
“Detectives with the Colorado Springs Police Department’s homicide unit continue to work closely with multiple law enforcement agencies in pursuing the ongoing investigation,” the Colorado Springs Police Department said in a statement. | https://www.97xonline.com/news/trending/colorado-mother-accused-killing-2-children-arrested-united-kingdom/UGMHCLKIBFFZZPDFXSLCJAH22E/ | 2024-01-01T03:29:44Z |

In a historic performance against the Miami Dolphins, Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson etched his name alongside NFL legends Tom Brady and Peyton Manning, achieving a rare feat that cements his place in the annals of football history. Jackson's masterful display not only secured a resounding victory for the Ravens but also marked his third game with a perfect passer rating, a milestone shared by only a select group of iconic quarterbacks.

(min. 15 attempts)Lamar Jackson 3
Tom Brady 3

The exclusive list of players with three or more games boasting a perfect passer rating, defined by the NFL as achieving a perfect 158.3 rating with a minimum of 15 pass attempts, is an illustrious one. Lamar Jackson now stands shoulder to shoulder with the legendary Tom Brady, whose accomplishments are etched in the lore of the game, and Peyton Manning, a quarterback known for his cerebral approach and record-setting career.
The significance of this achievement becomes even more apparent when considering the company Jackson keeps on this shortlist. Alongside him are Kurt Warner, the two-time NFL MVP and Super Bowl champion, and Ben Roethlisberger, the formidable quarterback who has been the face of the Pittsburgh Steelers for over a decade. This elite group of signal-callers, all with three perfect passer rating games, underscores the rarity and excellence encapsulated in Jackson's accomplishment.
The context leading up to this historic performance adds layers to the narrative. Until Week 16, Lamar Jackson was positioned third in the MVP odds, facing persistent skepticism due to his unconventional playing style. However, a standout victory against the San Francisco 49ers and a slip by MVP frontrunner Brock Purdy catapulted Jackson into the spotlight as the leading contender. The Ravens continued their impressive form in Week 17, routing the Miami Dolphins and securing the coveted #1 seed in the AFC along with a crucial bye week in the playoffs.
Jackson's stat line in the game against the Dolphins reads like a quarterback's dream. With a perfect passer rating of 158.3, he completed 18 out of 21 passes, amassing an impressive 321 yards through the air and throwing an astounding 5 touchdowns. These eye-popping numbers not only reflect Jackson's accuracy and efficiency but also highlight his ability to dominate a game and lead his team to success.
A recent tweet by Los Angeles Lakers superstar Lebron James, rallying against the perpetual skepticism surrounding Lamar Jackson's MVP candidacy, gains renewed significance in the wake of this historic achievement. The frustration expressed by fans is understandable, and Jackson's feat with a perfect passer rating serves as a powerful response to those who doubted his capabilities as a quarterback.
As the Ravens enter the playoffs with the #1 seed secured, Lamar Jackson's journey, marked by resilience and excellence, becomes a central narrative in the unfolding drama of the NFL postseason. The historic accomplishment of joining Tom Brady and Peyton Manning in the exclusive club of players with three perfect passer rating games solidifies Jackson's status as one of the game's premier quarterbacks, deserving of the recognition and acclaim that accompanies such rarefied achievements. | https://clutchpoints.com/ravens-qb-lamar-jackson-joins-tom-brady-peyton-manning-in-making-nfl-history-with-big-game-vs-dolphins | 2024-01-01T03:29:49Z |
Bears, via Panthers, clinch No. 1 pick in NFL Draft; Cardinals sit at No. 4
Dec 31, 2023, 2:54 PM | Updated: 5:27 pm
(Photo by Jared C. Tilton/Getty Images)
The Chicago Bears officially own the No. 1 overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.
By virtue of the Carolina Panthers (2-14) losing 26-0 to the Jacksonville Jaguars in north Florida while the Arizona Cardinals (4-12) won 35-31 against the Philadelphia Eagles in the City of Brotherly Love, Carolina secured the top spot in the draft order.
However, thanks to a March trade between the Bears and the Panthers which sent the No. 9 pick in the 2023 NFL Draft, a 2024 first- and second-rounder on top of wide receiver DJ Moore to Chicago in exchange for the No. 1 pick used on quarterback Bryce Young, Carolina’s No. 1 pick is actually Chicago’s.
Arizona drops to No. 4
By virtue of their win on Sunday against the Eagles, the Cardinals are now in a three-way tie for the second-worst record at 4-12. However, according to Tankathon, the Cardinals now own the No. 4 pick due to strength of schedule, which sits at .567. Washington, which currently owns the No. 2 pick, and New England, which owns the No. 3 pick, both have a .515 strength of schedule.
Arizona also owns the No. 18 pick, which is held by the Houston Texans. Houston also had a good week of football behind a 26-3 win over the Tennessee Titans on Sunday. Arizona secured the first-rounder last draft in a trade that shipped off the Cardinals’ No. 3 pick (used on Will Anderson Jr.) to Houston in exchange for the No. 12 overall pick and the 2024 first-rounder. General Manager Monti Ossenfort then dealt away the No. 12 pick in a deal with the Detroit Lions to come up and grab rookie offensive lineman Paris Johnson Jr. at No. 6 overall. | https://arizonasports.com/story/3540602/bears-via-panthers-clinch-no-1-pick-in-nfl-draft-cardinals-sit-at-no-4/ | 2024-01-01T03:29:50Z |

FREEPORT, N.Y. — Authorities in New York are looking for the person responsible for stabbing a dog 17 times.
The dog, a 2-year-old Terrier mix who has since been named Cornell, was injured by a sharp object on Nov. 27, Nassau County District Attorney Anne Donnelly told WNBC-TV. He survived the attack but had a long road to recovery.
A woman claimed to have found the dog bleeding on a street in the Long Island village of Freeport, according to the television station. The dog did not have a collar or an identification chip, Donnelly said. There was no evidence that Cornell was part of a dogfighting ring, WNBC reported.
The woman who found the dog is not a suspect, Donnelly said.
“Cornell can’t tell us his story. He can’t tell us what happened. He can’t tell us why or when something like this happened to him,” Donnelly told WABC-TV. “We just know he was found bleeding from the 17 wounds.”
Dog found stabbed 17 times in Nassau County, $5K reward offered for information https://t.co/1rJiYJmwbx pic.twitter.com/HfMGPIGtas
— Eyewitness News (@ABC7NY) December 29, 2023
“I’ve seen some pretty horrific things but the extent of the amount of times he was stabbed is unimaginable how someone could ever do that,” Ashley Behrens, acting director of the Town of Hempstead Animal Shelter, told WPIX-TV.
The dog is now walking, jogging and thriving, barely a month after he was attacked, according to the television station.
Two-year-old terrier mix Cornell is walking, jogging, and thriving just one month after being found with 17 stab wounds across his body, according to county officials.
“Some of the stab wounds caused his lungs to leak air between his body cavity and his lungs, and they had to be drained a number of times,” Donnelly said, according to WABC. “The other stab wounds were cleaned, were either stapled or sewn.”
Donnelly said there were currently no suspects, but she said her office is seeking the public’s help to find out what happened to Cornell.
“I believe this was somebody’s pet. He’s too healthy and in too good shape to have been a street dog,” Donnelly said, according to WNBC. “We need the public’s health to help us find who did this to Cornell.”
Gary Rogers of the Nassau County SPCA echoed Donnelly’s comments.
“People start out on animals before they move into human beings,” Rogers told WPIX. “Somebody in the community knows what happened. You got to keep your community safe. You need to call the DA’s office and tell them who did this because next time you’re going to look at this it could be somebody else.”
Nassau County SPCA is offering a $5,000 reward for information that leads to an arrest and conviction, WABC reported. | https://www.97xonline.com/news/trending/dog-survives-after-being-stabbed-17-times/7UTCMVE4B5H7XPWUMMAC6N3X3U/ | 2024-01-01T03:29:50Z |

(NEW YORK) — LeBron James turned 39 on Saturday, and he continues to dominate in the NBA while being the oldest current player — and shows no signs of slowing down.
According to James, the key to success is consistency.
In a 2018 interview with author and podcaster Tim Ferriss, James said he’s “very consistent with training my body, rehabbing my body, eating, having my body be very clean throughout this journey because I’ve always wanted to have a long career, or as long as I could be in this space.”
A 2020 study done on the effects of age and the performance of athletes in the NBA found that players over 30 covered much less distance during games compared to younger players.
The Los Angeles Lakers forward ranked ninth in minutes played per game in the 2022-23 season despite being the oldest player in the league. He is currently ranked 38th in average minutes per game this season. The average age of the players ranked above James this season is more than a decade younger than him.
And in February 2023, James set the record for most career points in NBA history, toppling Hall of Famer and fellow Laker Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.
Experts say James’ consistency and dedication to nutrition, sleep and mental health are working to his advantage. According to nutritionists and fitness experts, anyone can benefit from some of James’ most-discussed health practices.
Here are tips from experts:
Focus on nutrition and fitness
LeBron told Ferriss he keeps his diet as “clean as possible throughout the season when I’m burning so much and trying to get the recovery back,” and tries to stay away from “artificial drinks, artificial sugars and fried foods” year-round.
Studies suggest that a well-balanced diet of fruits, vegetables and lean proteins can help people live longer.
Kate Patton, a sports nutritionist at the Cleveland Clinic, compared the human body to a sports car to explain that to get longevity, “you need more expensive gas,” and for the body, that is “nutrient-dense food.”
For someone looking to improve their diet, she said eating more whole foods and “less processed foods” is very important to encourage muscle recovery and decrease oxidative stress on the body.
Things that are “nutrition powerhouses” such as whole grains, vegetables and beans should be a priority, Patton said.
“Ninety percent of any fitness goal is having the correct nutrition for your body type and goals,” Justin Bauer, a Cleveland, Ohio-based health and fitness coach, said, adding that “prioritizing nutrition will ensure that you’re getting the full benefit of your workouts.”
Experts say anyone can highlight nutrition and fitness in enjoyable ways. Doing what you enjoy both for nutrition and fitness is the best way to see results, Bauer added.
Prioritize sleep
James prioritizes sleep and gets between 8-9 hours a night, sometimes even 10, and has called it self-care. James uses sleep techniques such as keeping his room between 68-70 degrees, having a completely dark room and cutting out distractions, his trainer, Mike Mancias, told Ferriss in 2018.
Dr. Upneet Chawla, a sleep medicine specialist in the greater Chicago area, cited an American Journal of Clinical Sleep Medicine study from 2021 that showed poor sleep can negatively affect mental health and increase risk of injury in NBA athletes.
Adequate sleep allows for the body to recover “physically and emotionally” so that you’re ready to take on the next day at the “highest level,” James has said.
“Don’t sleep on sleep, make it a priority,” Chawla said, and suggested sleeping in a dark, cool room, which helps increase the sleep hormone melatonin.
Chawla also suggested sticking to a regular sleep-wake schedule during the week and weekends, and getting 7-8 hours of sleep consistently. Many studies have linked good quality sleep with improved health, she added.
Poor mental health can impact your physical health, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says.
For James, protecting his mental energy is important. When he experiences a loss, he doesn’t “dwell on that loss,” but rather tries to “learn from that defeat” and finds ways to learn and improve, he said. He also talks in his 2018 interview with Ferriss about patience with his teammates, family and himself, and the importance of communication and understanding others’ mindsets.
Studies suggest poor mental well-being can weaken the immune system and cause an imbalance between the fight-or-flight and rest systems, which has been associated with heart disease and diabetes.

As the Baltimore Ravens secured the coveted No. 1 seed in the AFC and a crucial first-round bye, quarterback Lamar Jackson found himself at the center of a narrative defined by resilience and determination amid a backdrop of injuries that have plagued the team. In the wake of this significant achievement, Jackson's reaction highlighted the importance of the top seed, especially in light of the challenges posed by a roster battered by injuries.
The journey leading to the No. 1 seed was marked by a rollercoaster of performances and a determined effort by the Ravens. Until Week 16, Lamar Jackson faced persistent skepticism about his MVP candidacy, navigating through doubters who questioned his unconventional playing style. However, a decisive victory against the San Francisco 49ers, coupled with a miserable performance by the then-MVP frontrunner Brock Purdy, propelled Jackson into the spotlight as the leading contender. Week 17 witnessed a dominant performance against the Miami Dolphins, securing both the win and the No. 1 seed for the Ravens in the AFC.
The backdrop to this achievement was the toll injuries had taken on the Ravens' roster. In a post-game statement, Lamar Jackson acknowledged the significance of clinching the No. 1 seed while addressing the challenges posed by injuries, per Baltimore Positive's Luke Jones, saying, “It was very important. We have a lot of guys banged up.” The acknowledgment of the team's physical toll adds depth to the narrative, emphasizing the resilience required to secure the top spot despite the adversities faced.
Lamar Jackson's leadership qualities shone through as he expressed the importance of ending the season on a positive note, per ESPN's Jamison Henley, stating, “We got to end the season the right way.” This sentiment reflects a determination to overcome obstacles, not just in securing the No. 1 seed but in finishing the season strong, setting the tone for a playoff run that holds the promise of success.
The achievement of clinching the No. 1 seed is not only a testament to Lamar Jackson's individual brilliance but also to the collective effort of the Ravens in the face of adversity. The injuries that have plagued the team could have derailed their season, but instead, it has become a rallying point, a testament to the depth and resilience of the entire roster.
The first-round bye comes as a strategic advantage, offering the Ravens an opportunity to rest and recover before diving into the intensity of the playoff battles. It also provides a buffer for injured players to heal and return to full strength, a critical aspect for a team with postseason aspirations.
As the Ravens prepare for the playoffs, Lamar Jackson's reaction to securing the No. 1 seed encapsulates the spirit of the team. It reflects a sense of accomplishment in the face of adversity, an acknowledgment of the challenges overcome, and a resolute focus on finishing the season on a high note. Jackson's words carry the weight of a leader who understands the magnitude of the moment and the responsibility that comes with steering his team towards postseason success.
In the unpredictable and fiercely competitive landscape of the NFL, the Ravens, led by Lamar Jackson, have positioned themselves at the pinnacle with the No. 1 seed. The journey, marked by ups and downs, injuries, and triumphs, has shaped not only the team's trajectory but also the narrative of Lamar Jackson's MVP-caliber season. As the Ravens embark on their playoff journey, the No. 1 seed serves as both a reward for their resilience and a platform for the team to showcase its mettle in pursuit of football glory. | https://clutchpoints.com/ravens-qb-lamar-jackson-reacts-to-clinching-no-1-seed-amid-injuries | 2024-01-01T03:29:55Z |

(NEW YORK) — A 39-year-old man has died following a shark “encounter” at Maui’s Paia Bay, officials said.
The Maui Police Department said it responded to the beach around 11:19 a.m. local time Saturday.
“Upon arrival, Ocean Safety Officers were transporting a male who sustained injuries from a shark encounter via jet ski to shore,” officials said in a statement. “Once onshore, life-saving measures were performed by first responder personnel until medic personnel arrived to transport the male to the Maui Memorial Medical Center for further treatment.”
The man “later succumbed to his injuries and died,” officials said.
His identity is being withheld so his family can notify extended family and friends, according to officials.
No further details were given. An investigation is ongoing.
The Baldwin Beach Park and Lower Pā’ia Park (Baby Beach) were closed Saturday following the shark incident, county officials said.
Shark warning signs were posted for 1 mile to either side of where the incident took place, from Tavares Bay to Baby Beach, the Hawaii Department of Land and Natural Resources said.
“By noon on Sunday, if no further signs of shark activity are detected, signs will be taken down,” the department wrote on Facebook.

HOUSTON – Jalen Green, the 2nd overall pick in the 2021 NBA Draft by the Houston Rockets, has yet to make a significant leap in his third season. Averaging 17.4 points on 40.2% efficiency and 33.2% from deep, these overall stats are not what one would expect from a top draft pick.
Twenty-eight games into the season, many Rockets fans have decided to write him off as a draft bust. Some have even speculated about how much general manager Rafael Stone could get for trading the 2nd overall pick.
“At times, he struggles to see what they are doing and passes up some looks while forcing others,” Coach Ime Udoka said, following a loss against the Indiana Pacers.
Back-to-back promising games
Following this quote, Udoka finished by saying he will continue to keep him confident, and he will eventually take that step. Oddly enough, if you look at the last couple of matchups, Green has done just that. In the matchup against the Phoenix Suns, Green scored 23 points on a mediocre 8-of-20 shooting but hit 6-of-12 from deep, displaying more aggression going downhill and precision with the three-ball.
In the game against the Philadelphia 76ers, Green played even better, scoring 31 points on 12-of-19 shooting and 5-of-9 from deep. This was just his second 30+ point game of the season. This matchup acted like a sequel better than the first movie: better efficiency, improved drives to the basket, and finishing better at the rim.
Why Green might be having these good scoring games
Do these recent games possibly indicate a positive sign for Green? Has Udoka finally cracked the case? Here's why these might be a fluke.
As a rhythm-type player, Green's inability to read his teammates squanders key opportunities to get in rhythm. Against the Indiana Pacers, Green played 20 minutes and scored just five points. He appeared lethargic on the court and was indecisive in his passing and scoring. Ime Udoka saw how much of a negative net rating his team had during that game when Green was on the court and inserted more team-based players such as Aaron Holiday and Amen Thompson.
In the following game against the Suns, Houston had to go without their starting small forward Dillon Brooks due to injuring his oblique against Indiana. Gone was a key role player who specializes in elite perimeter scoring and defense. His spot was replaced by Jae'Sean Tate.
The loss of Brooks steadily increased Green's scoring opportunities and placed him in key spots to score at the right time. This also led to more touches with the other starting four, including Green. During the Suns game, another key forward in Jabari Smith Jr. was taken out of the game because of an ankle sprain, who also happens to be another key perimeter defender and versatile scorer.
Another scoring opportunity
The loss of Smith led to veteran Jeff Green replacing him in the starting lineup. Green, who sometimes reaches back into the fountain of youth, doesn't necessarily have much left in him. He's a smart player who uses mostly his basketball IQ to place himself in the right spots. The way he positions himself and times his cuts are clearly why he's still a valuable teammate. But he is not a scorer.
He passes to his teammates and guards the opponents' big men. So, with these recent injuries piling up, where did the extra scoring and spacing go? It went to Fred VanVleet, Alperen Sengun, and… Jalen Green. With Green's 31 points, each of them had a combined total of 92 points.
How does Green play well off of Fred and Sengun? Because they are playmakers and can place themselves on all sides of the court, which isn't in Green's way.
Once Smith got hurt, it was more for the taking for the former 2nd overall pick. Green appeared confident because of the increased touches and available spacing on the wings. It's why he hit 11-of-21 from three-point land. Smith and Brooks' usual touches on the wings, cutting into the paint, or at the elbow are good for the team, but they prevent Green from getting himself going. But with them off the court, Green found his spots in passing lanes and beyond the arc with ease.
Confidence with a healthy lineup
It's safe to say this isn't going to last. Imagine yourself in Udoka's shoes; you'd certainly prioritize winning over a player's individual stats. Confidence within a system of knowing your role is something Jalen Green needs to grasp in order to transform himself into an impactful player.
While witnessing these scoring outbursts is undoubtedly promising, the real desire lies in team chemistry and securing victories. It's a sentiment shared by NBA fans who've often lamented over moments like Devin Booker's infamous 70-point performance in a losing effort against the Boston Celtics.
It's clear that Green thrives better if he is the guy and his teammates allow him to get into his spots. But that's better on a rebuilding team like the Detroit Pistons. Green needs to figure out how to get himself acclimated in Udoka's system and find some way to play better off of teammates who don't utilize him. When it's all said and done, the Houston Rockets will identify these recent games as a failure.
Maybe these recent performances can instill confidence when the starting lineup returns fully healthy. Ideally, if it does, the Rockets could be a 4th seed away from a confident Jalen Green. | https://clutchpoints.com/rockets-jalen-green-last-two-games-mirage | 2024-01-01T03:30:01Z |

Ahead of This Year's New Year's Eve Festivities, Let’s Revisit These Drunk Andy Cohen Memes From That One Infamous NYE
Andy Cohen went viral to ring in 2022.
Co-hosting CNN New Year's Eve with Anderson Cooper, the Bravo maestro got obliterated on booze and had more fun than pretty much all of America—something he acknowledged himself.

Back on July 23, the Obamas’ personal chef Tafari Campbell “disappeared while paddleboarding in the waters of Edgartown Great Pond on Martha’s Vineyard.” The death of the 45-year-old was “ruled an accident,” but troubling questions failed to float away.
Campbell had posted videos of himself swimming laps, so it was strange that an able swimmer perished in eight feet of water, in a pond for the most part half that depth. Several reports mentioned another paddleboarder who saw Campbell go under. According to the Daily Mail, the observer was a 26-year-old female who worked for the Obamas, but the eyewitness remained unidentified.
It was also unclear who had called 911, but the dispatch was directed to the Obamas’ estate. The official police report is heavily redacted but does reveal that the medical examiner found a “small ½ centimeter abrasion” on Campbell’s upper lip.
Any personal chef is in a position to gain intimate details about his employer, especially a chef regarded as a beloved part of the Obama family. Tafari Campbell could easily have seen or heard something he wasn’t supposed to see or hear.
Like Luca Brasi in The Godfather, the chef now sleeps with the fishes, and like Paulie Gatto the Obamas aren’t going to see him anymore. A week after Campbell’s death, more realities about the former president came to the surface.
In Tablet’s August 2 “The Obama Factor,” David Samuels interviewed Pulitzer Prize winner David Garrow, author of the massive Rising Star: The Making of Barack Obama. On page 538 readers learn:
Dreams from My Father was not a memoir or an autobiography; it was instead, in multitudinous ways, without any question a work of historical fiction. It featured many true-to-life figures and a bevy of accurately described events that indeed had occurred, but it employed the techniques and literary license of a novel, and its most important composite character was the narrator himself. (Garrow’s emphasis)
The composite character didn’t like Garrow’s revelation. “He wants people to believe his story,” Garrow told Samuels. “For me to conclude that Dreams from My Father was historical fiction—oh God, did that infuriate him.” A reporter also told Garrow that Obama’s staffers were “terrified of people poking around Obama’s life. The whole Obama narrative is built around this narrative that Obama and David Axelrod built, and, like all stories, it’s not entirely true. So they have to be protective of the crown jewels.”
For David Samuels, the fictitious character of Dreams is responsible for “the disaster we are living through now.” The Tablet editor provides a roster of Obama officials still running White House policy to this day.
The composite character would surely like a fourth term through wife Michelle, whose books also bear the auto-hagiographical style of “Obama’s narrator” David Axelrod. A fourth term would give the Dreams author, formerly known as Barry Soetoro, the opportunity to fulfill his transformative role as national undertaker. While the election awaits, other events portend what the people might expect in 2024.
Last January, China’s spy balloon crossed the United States surveilling military bases and wasn’t shot down until it reached the east coast. Under Joe Biden, the Chinese can do pretty much anything they want, so expect more Chinese incursions in the new year.
On March 27, in the run-up to “Trans Day of Vengeance,” Audrey Hale murdered nine-year-olds Evelyn Dieckhaus, William Kinney and Hallie Scruggs and also shot dead adults Mike Hill, Katherine Koonce and Cynthia Peak. The Biden White House failed to condemn the shooter or name the victims, and portrayed the “trans community” as “under attack.” Expect more trans murder sprees in 2024.
On August 9, the FBI shot and killed Craig Robertson a 75-year-old woodworker who had allegedly made online threats against Joe Biden. The FBI now regards anyone less than worshipful of Biden as a domestic terrorist or violent extremist. Expect more deadly violence from the FBI in 2024.
On October 7, Hamas terrorists committed the worst massacre of Jews since the Holocaust, launching a tsunami of Jew hatred on American campuses. Harvard president Claudine Gay tries to see anti-Semitism “in context,” and gets support from the composite character as she faces charges of plagiarism. Expect more plagiarism and anti-Semitism on Ivy League campuses in 2024. There could also be more mysterious deaths like that of Tafari Campbell.
According to the police report, his case is closed “pending any future information that would warrant it being re-opened.” Investigative journalists should look into it. As David Garrow confirms, when you poke around the composite character’s life, there’s no telling what you’ll find. Happy New Year everybody. | https://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2023/12/2023-notes-in-passing.php | 2024-01-01T03:30:07Z |
New Orleans Saints star running back Alvin Kamara was added to the Week 17 injury report on Friday with an illness. Despite this and his questionable tag, Kamara is expected to suit up for the crucial matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter.
The 7-8 Saints are facing what effectively amounts to a must-win game against the NFC South-leading Buccaneers on Sunday. A loss alone wouldn't eliminate New Orleans from playoff contention, but it would put them on the brink and a few other results playing out in Week 17 would finish them.
A Saints win would make things way more interesting, especially if the Atlanta Falcons beat the Chicago Bears. Those two outcomes would mean the Saints, Buccaneers and Falcons are all 8-8 heading into the final week of the season.
New Orleans lost 26-9 to Tampa Bay earlier this season.
Alvin Kamara's status
Alvin Kamara isn't as dangerous as he was in his first few seasons in New Orleans, but he's still an important weapon to have around given he's also a threat out of the backfield. This season, the 28-year-old has carried the ball 170 times for 649 yards (3.8 yards per carry) and five touchdowns. He also has 73 catches for 462 yards and a score.
It's good news for a mediocre Saints offense that Kamara will be able to go. Derek Carr will appreciate Kamara's presence and will look to continue using the running back as a key safety valve on checkdowns.
If Kamara is struggling in this game with his illness, New Orleans has Jamaal Williams in place as the primary backup. Rookie Kendre Miller isn't expected to play after being listed as questionable due to an ankle injury. | https://clutchpoints.com/saints-news-alvin-kamara-good-to-go-vs-buccaneers-despite-late-addition-injury-report-illness | 2024-01-01T03:30:08Z |

Astana duo records album of Kazakh songs in French
The members of the duo are Assem Abdykassymova and Polina Tyrina, talented and charming residents of the capital of Kazakhstan.
Assem graduated from the L.N. Gumilyov Eurasian National University with a civil engineering degree. In Nantes, France, she majored in Environment and Urban Planning under the Erasmus Mundus program, a post-master degree in Business and Management, and completed an internship under the Copernicus program from the French Embassy in Kazakhstan. Now she works at the France-Kazakhstan Chamber of Commerce and Industry. As for Polina, she graduated from the Astana Polytechnic College as a manager of tourism. Having studied at the Omsk State University, she received a diploma of a journalist.
The singers made up the duo in 2016. Presently, their repertoire includes songs in 9 languages: Kazakh, Russian, English, French, Portuguese, Italian, Spanish, Polish, and Ukrainian.
"The album includes 15 tracks: 5 Kazakh folk songs translated into French, 5 Kazakh folk songs in the original language, and 5 unreleased French works of authorship. Recording it, we used dombra, jetygen, sybyzgy, cello, violin, and guitars. A complete mixture of cultures and styles truly reflects the essence of our duo," Assem smiles.
According to her, the project was implemented with the support from the French Embassy in Kazakhstan within the Francophone spring festival.
"Both Polina and I love the French language and France. In addition to speaking it fluently, I also write songs in French. Together we have been in Paris. Both of us have won Francophone music contests. I think that's what accounts for why the album is in French. When the French Embassy offered to start a joint project, we agreed to do it without a moment's hesitation," says Assem.
According to the duo, their album will be of interest in France as well. Besides, brilliant Amre Kashaubayev is still remembered there.
In addition to Almas Duo, 8 more musicians took part in the recording of the album.
"Katrina Viloria, the most unusual member of our team, was in charge of percussion. Kat is from the Philippines. Katrina teaches English at Miras International School. She plays drums, guitar, and piano. She composes beautiful songs," says Polina.
The other musicians include Venera Tabys (playing the jetygen), Sanjay Almishev (sybyzgy and shankobyz), Ardak Yeleusiz (dombra), Azamat Temirbayev (bass guitar), Vlad Russanov (guitar), Asya Nurzhigitova (violin), and Aidar Kazken (cello).
"We would like to thank you the musicians who worked with us! Thank you for being with us, helping, believing, and supportin us. They came for recording in freezing temperatures and blizzards, at weekends and on holidays, having cold, and with children. All of them are not just professionals but people who are in love with music," says Assem.
"The preliminary presentation of the album of Almas Duo FRANÇAIS À LA KAZAKH will take place on February 28 in one of the restaurants of the capital, and the official one will be on March 9 in a Meloman store," Assem and Polina told the residents and guests of Astana.
For those who cannot attend the events, there is an opportunity to contemplate the duo's works via its pages on Instagram and Facebook. | https://en.inform.kz/news/astana-duo-records-album-of-kazakh-songs-in-french_a3501606/ | 2024-01-01T03:30:07Z |
