Blinken Again Bypasses US Congress To Send Munitions To Israel
US Secretary of State Antony Blinken used emergency authority to approve the sale of $147.5 million of 155 mm artillery shells to Israel on Saturday, bypassing the standard congressional review for arms sales for the second time since the start of the war on Gaza.
A State Department spokesman said on Friday that "given the urgency of Israel’s defensive needs, the secretary notified Congress that he had exercised his delegated authority to determine an emergency existed necessitating the immediate approval of the transfer."
Earlier this month, Blinken used the same emergency process to approve the sale of 14,000 tank shells, worth more than $106 million, to Israel. The emergency sale of artillery shells comes as Israel’s military intensifies its bombing campaign in Gaza.
Earlier this week, on Christmas Eve, Israeli forces bombed the Meghazi camp, killing 86 Palestinians in one strike. Israeli government spokesperson Eylon Levy excused the death toll by telling Sky News the army had used an "incorrect munition."
But he refused to apologize for the loss of life and did not say what type of munition was used, despite being pressed several times by Sky News presenter Niall Paterson.
Israel has regularly used 2,000 lb US-made bombs to target residential neighborhoods in Gaza.
Continued instances of this sort cast doubt on the sincerity of the White House’s rhetoric calling for Israel to refrain from killing Palestinian civilians in such huge numbers.
Josh Paul, a former State Department arms expert who resigned in protest in October, told The Washington Post that Blinken’s decision to rush these unguided munitions enables Israel to continue the type of operations in Gaza that have "led to so many Palestinian civilian deaths."
"This is shameful, craven, and should frankly turn the stomach of any decent human being," he said. A Washington Post analysis found that Israel’s war against Gaza has been more devastating than any other 21st-century conflict.
'Israel dropped 29,000 weapons on Gaza in a little over two months, according to U.S. officials. By comparison, the U.S. military dropped 3,678 munitions on Iraq from 2004 to 2010, according to the U.S. Central Command.'

Credit is top of mind for many folks going into 2024. Nearly 4 in 5 Americans (79%) say they are trying to improve their credit, according to a recent survey from NerdWallet.
Getting ahead of surprises will go a long way in protecting your credit. Here are four things to look out for that could impact your credit in the new year.
1. HOLIDAY DEBT
Holiday purchases could follow you for months. NerdWallet’s 2023 Holiday Shopping Report found that about half of Americans (52%) incurred credit card debt when shopping last holiday season, and of them, 31% still have not paid off their balances.
Payment history is the biggest factor influencing your credit scores. If you’re carrying debt, make at least the minimum payments on your cards to keep your payment history intact and shield your scores. But paying a higher amount, if you’re able to, is better for your credit utilization — another major factor in score calculations. Using too much of available credit can make you appear risky to lenders.
“You want to keep your credit balance under 30% of what your credit limit is to get a good score,” says Marianne Nolte, a certified financial planner in Lake Havasu City, Arizona.
Paying balances in full will keep your credit usage low and spare you interest charges.
To prevent bookending the year with debt, start planning 2024 holiday spending now, says Heath Carelock, a financial counselor in Prince George’s County, Maryland.
Setting spending limits for gifts, making lists and being honest with loved ones about your situation are strategies Carelock recommends. “Just say, ‘Hey, this is what I’m going to be able to do this year’ and be fine with that, and not worry about the judgment or potentially the embarrassment or guilt over not being able to spend freely,” he says.
2. CREDIT CARD DELINQUENCIES
Debt is surging outside of holiday spending, too. Debt balances of all types grew by $228 billion in the third quarter of 2023, according to a report from the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. The New York Fed also found that credit card delinquencies have risen above pre-pandemic levels, particularly among millennials.
Many experts expect this trend to continue in 2024. “We’re likely to see people start running out of room with their available credit and encountering more difficulty affordably repaying the debt that they owe,” says Bruce McClary, senior vice president of membership and communications at the National Foundation for Credit Counseling. “We’re dealing with shrinking savings and increasing debt. And that’s never a good recipe.”
If your credit card account becomes delinquent, usually when it’s 30 days or more past due, pay the bill as soon as possible. The later a payment gets, the more damage it does.
Negative marks may hinder your ability to open new lines of credit or secure desirable interest rates.
Try calling your card issuer or writing a goodwill letter to ask if it will remove the missed payment from your reports.
3. STUDENT LOANS
Federal student loans started accruing interest again in September 2023, and payments resumed in October. Making payments after a three-and-a-half-year-long pause has put pressure on borrowers’ finances.
The Education Department established a 12-month “on-ramp” period to help those who might be struggling with student loan bills protect their credit. During this period — which lasts through Sept. 30, 2024 — missed payments won’t be considered delinquent, go into default or be reported to credit bureaus and debt collection agencies.
Still, skipping payments is risky. Interest will keep accruing and your balance will rise. Having a swollen balance after the grace period along with other financial obligations could become too much to manage.
“Student loans don’t live in a vacuum,” McClary says. “So it’s important that you look at the bigger picture while you’re working on solutions that might make your student debt more affordable to repay within your existing budget.”
If you’re able to make loan payments during the on-ramp period, it’s best to do so. But if you can’t, McClary suggests working with your loan servicer or exploring the department’s repayment options.
4. APPLYING FOR NEW CREDIT
Thinking about applying for a credit card or loan in 2024? Opening an account raises your overall credit limit and potentially adds to your mix of credit types, aiding your score. However, it can also drag down your average credit age or tempt you to spend more of your available credit, causing your score to slip. Hard inquiries, when lenders check your credit file, also stay on your credit reports for two years.
Borrow only if necessary, and Carelock recommends comparing annual fees and interest rates. If you’re carrying debt, look for a balance transfer card with a 0% annual percentage rate introductory period.
Before you apply, check your credit score and reports to see what lenders will see, McClary says. “If there’s a little mess to clean up in terms of inaccurate information, you should build in at least a little bit of time to address those things.”
Credit reports from the major credit bureaus are free to check weekly at AnnualCreditReport.com.

Jason Fitz and Frank Schwab join forces to recap an absolutely bonkers Week 17 of NFL action. The dynamic duo start off by highlighting some of the more intriguing games from the weekend, including the massive officiating blunder on Saturday night that potentially decided the NFC East in favor of the Dallas Cowboys, the Baltimore Ravens' dominating victory over the Miami Dolphins and the Philadelphia Eagles' tragic meltdown at the end of this season culminating in a loss to the Arizona Cardinals. The duo also address David Tepper throwing a drink on a Jacksonville Jaguars fan during the Carolina Panthers' loss, and Fitz and Frank discuss what's a suitable punishment for an NFL owner – who should be held to an even higher standard than players and coaches.
Later, Fitz and Frank discuss each and every game from the Sunday slate, as they go back and forth on the Pittsburgh Steelers and Mason Rudolph impressing, the Chicago Bears and what to do with Justin Fields, the Denver Broncos' first game without Russell Wilson and much more.

Banks submitted bids amounting to Rs 4.75 trillion, around 2.5 times of the notified amount of Rs 1.75 trillion, at the Variable Rate Reverse Repo (VRR) auction conducted by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) on December 22, a day after the liquidity deficit in the banking system widened to Rs 2.5 trillion.
In the most recent VRR auction held by the RBI on December 15, bids totaling 2.7 times the notified amount were received.
Banks secured Rs 1 trillion at a weighted average rate of 6.63 per cent.
This VRR auction marked the central bank’s return to such auctions after a six-month hiatus, with the previous one held on June 19.
However, market participants do not expect additional VRR auctions from the central bank as the VRR amount is scheduled to mature on December 29.
Consequently, the likelihood of the RBI opting to roll over the VRR amount appears low, market participants said.
“The liquidity deficit has almost crossed Rs 2.5 trillion.
"So, obviously, there was good demand from banks.
"We do not expect more VRR auctions because the current VRR amount will mature on December 29, and government spending should start from Monday,” said V R C Reddy, head of treasury at Karur Vysya Bank.
“The liquidity deficit might narrow to below Rs 1 trillion in the first week of January, and may again touch Rs 2 trillion after the outflows start from January 15,” he added.
The liquidity deficit in the banking system widened to more than Rs 2 trillion on Monday on the back of advance tax outflows, it further widened to Rs 2.3 trillion on the back of GST outflows, market participants said.
Liquidity has remained largely in deficit mode in the current quarter.
The market speculated a total of around Rs 4 trillion worth of outflows because of advanced tax and GST payments in December.
“At any rate, we can expect stringent liquidity conditions with credit growth being higher than deposits and the RBI following its stance of withdrawal of accommodation.
"It will be interesting to see if there is any OMO purchase, as that can inject permanent funds into the system.
"No mention was made in the policy, however, of this tool being used. Interestingly there is still around Rs 50,000 crore going into SDF, reflecting surpluses with some banks,” said Madan Sabnavis, chief economist at Bank of Baroda.
RBI Governor Shaktikanta Das said at the post-monetary policy conference that the need to undertake an auction of open market operations (OMO) sales has not arisen so far.
He, however, also said that the OMO tool is not off the table.
“The RBI has been cautious nowadays about over-tightening of the liquidity.
"The liquidity should ease from here.
"It might ease to Rs 1.5 trillion by the end of December, and further the liquidity deficit might narrow to below Rs 1 trillion in January,” a dealer at a primary
dealership said. | https://www.rediff.com/business/report/banks-bid-25x-against-rs-175-trn-at-vrr-auction/20240101.htm | 2024-01-01T04:38:18Z |

Has Feminism And 'Hoeflation' Destroyed Dating In The West?
It's a problem in the western world that is rarely discussed in the media beyond puff-piece articles and glancing polls that avoid connecting the dots. The precipitous decline of dating, committed relationships and marriage along with a flatline in population in the past couple decades in the US is treated as a novelty issue rather than the threat to the stability of civilization that it actually is. History shows that without the traditional family structure, numerous ugly societal consequences follow.
One could argue, though, that the situation is far worse than that. We may be heading into a future where families become a novelty, and many argue that the root cause is feminism and the hyperinflated delusions of progressive women.
In order to understand the problem we have to look at the stats.
More than 50% of American women are still childless by age 30. By age 35 fertility goes into steep decline with women having a 15% chance of becoming pregnant, and a less than 5% chance of motherhood at age 40. Meaning, the best window of opportunity for women to find a compatible partner and build a family is in their 20s.
Feminists argue, though, that this is the time in a woman's life when they should be building a career and having fun. Family life, they say, is an artificial prison “created by the patriarchy” in order to oppress the fairer sex. Corporate media and Hollywood entertainment often reinforce this narrative and encourage unrealistic life goals.
The propaganda has generated what many refer to as the “Female Happiness Paradox.” Surveys show that increased power, job access and responsibility for women in society since the 1970s has also led to a diametrically opposed decline in overall happiness for those same women. The correlation suggests the exact opposite of what feminism originally promised and that the ideology has been a net negative.
Though some will argue that a general decline in economic conditions is the real cause, surveys show that women have suffered a far more pronounced drop in happiness compared to men. Meaning, men were already acclimated to the struggles of the workaday world and their roles as providers and protectors. Women were happy until they joined men in the trenches.
For men, the reaction has been to back away from the dating scene and the double standards involved. Over 63% of men under the age of 30 are now single; that's up from 51% in 2019. The majority of single men say this is by choice and that they are seeking to avoid relationships altogether. Why? The consensus appears to be that modern western women cost too much money and cause too much trouble.
Fear of failed marriage is one aspect that has the younger generation of men on edge, with family courts still largely in favor of women in divorce settlements and child custody. This is one reason why marriage rates have declined by 60% since the 1970s. However, the obstacles go well beyond divorce and into a new culture of female entitlement.
The word on the street is “Hoeflation”: The dramatic increase in cost for men today to maintain a relationship with a woman while the quality of women continues to go down. That is to say, it is an increase in female expectations vs what they bring to the table in a relationship.
In other words, women of the past used to have something to offer beyond sexual companionship, from greater femininity, greater potential for motherhood, less combativeness and narcissism, as well as a superior ability to raise children and maintain a home. Such traits are highly attractive to men even after 60 years of widespread feminism, but are seen as non-existent among women under 30 in 2023.
It should be noted that “Hoeflation” seems to be directly linked to progressive influences, and not all women fall into this category. Unfortunately, around 71% of young women identify with progressive beliefs, as opposed to young men who are only 53% progressive. It should also be noted that progressive today means something a lot different from what it meant in the 1990s (progressive now means woke, or extreme leftist cultism).
A majority of American women have cast off their traditional roles in exchange for modern feminist ideals while still expecting traditional roles for men. Dating, younger men complain, is now more like a job interview with scrutiny of their finances a primary topic. Beyond that, the online meat market isn't helping. Dating app research shows that 80% of western women are all chasing after the top 20% or less of men, with earning potential being the biggest factor next to physical attractiveness.
A recent viral trend on social media in which women made a list of restaurants that they would refuse to eat at on a first date exemplifies the concept of “Hoeflation.”
The Cheesecake Factory in particular was consistently mentioned as a “red flag” for “cheap men.” Spending of up to $200 or more was presented as a bare minimum for a first date, and only 26% of women indicated they are willing to split the tab. First dates used to be an opportunity for men and women to decide if there is a chance for compatibility, now progressive women expect grand gestures of wealth and ambition. Like Valentine's Day, but everyday.
What feminism has done, essentially, is hyper-exaggerate women's natural inclination to seek out more productive men, while also hyper-exaggerating their sense of self worth and making them insufferable.
Women who have nothing to offer have been inculcated with delusions of grandeur. So much so that the question “what do you bring to the table” is sneered at – “I am the table” is their response. There is no cure for this level of narcissism except hitting rock bottom, which is an outcome that western women (and society as a whole) are swiftly approaching
The problem is not as historically entrenched as one might think, with Gen Z being the biggest deviation with the worst prospects for relationships among all other generations. Feminism has been an ever present agenda but Gen Z has been hit with the brunt of the fallout in the span of a single decade. We can hope, however, that as quickly as the cancer of feminism has spread it might recede. If the greatest damage was done within one or two generations, maybe a cure can be applied in the next generation. | https://www.zerohedge.com/political/has-feminism-and-hoeflation-destroyed-dating-west | 2024-01-01T04:38:24Z |
Ajit Pawar, Prakash Ambedkar pay tributes at Koregaon Bhima war memorial
- Country:
- India
Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Ajit Pawar and other leaders on Monday paid tributes at the 'Jay Stambh' (victory pillar) near here on the 206th anniversary of the Koregaon Bhima battle.
Every year, lakhs of people congregate at the 'Jay Stambh' to offer tributes on the anniversary of the battle, which was fought on January 1, 1818, between the British East India Company and the Peshwa faction of the Maratha Confederacy.
Speaking to reporters, Pawar, while citing the BJP's victory in the recent assembly polls in Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh, said there is no alternative to Prime Minister Narendra Modi in the country.
''Under him (PM Modi), the country's name, fame and pride is increasing,'' he said.
Vanchit Bahujan Aghadi leader Prakash Ambedkar, NCP MP from Shirur (in Pune district) Amol Kolhe were also among those who paid tributes at the victory pillar.
Elaborate security arrangements were made around the memorial, located near Perne village on Pune-Ahmednagar road. A Pune police official said they are anticipating more than 10 lakh visitors at the memorial.
Pawar said, ''All the departments, be it police or local administration, have made good arrangements for the people who are coming to offer tributes on the (Koregaon Bhima battle) anniversary. I appeal to people to cooperate with the administration.'' On the 200th anniversary of the Koregaon Bhima battle on January 1, 2018, violence broke out in and around the village in which one person was killed and several others injured.
Wishing everyone on the New Year, Pawar said it is the year of elections. The Lok Sabha and the Maharashtra assembly polls are due later this year.
Asked about reports of submarine projects shifting out of Maharashtra, Pawar said Chief Minister Eknath Shinde has already clarified that there is no truth in such reports. ''How will the projects move out of Maharashtra? As CM, deputy CMs, will we stay silent? There is an attempt to spread misinformation,'' he said.

They are snippets in time, unforgettable snapshots that gloriously capture the soaring euphoria and gut-wrenching agony of the games we love, not to mention the randomness of a moment that might’ve gone unnoticed otherwise.
There are the Kansas City Chiefs, dunking head coach Andy Reid with a jug-full of frigid drink after their stirring Super Bowl triumph over the Philadelphia Eagles, fulfilling what has become a rite of passage in all gridiron celebrations.
And the Vegas Golden Knights, gathered in a giant group hug behind the net after capturing the NHL’s Stanley Cup championship , the glittering ice beneath their skates littered with discarded gloves.
Then there’s Femke Bol , a track athlete from the Netherlands, tumbling toward the track with a gasp of disbelief across her face, the baton slipping from her grasp as she falls near the finish line of a relay race at the world championships.
And Northern Ireland’s Rory McIlroy , smashing a golf club across his leg like a child trying to snap a tree limb in half, the frustration evident after an errant shot from the thick rough at the U.S. Open.
But let’s not forget Petra Kvitova of the Czech Republic, her braided ponytail soaring above her head as she whacks a serve at the Wimbledon tennis championships.
And Cleveland Guardians catcher Bo Naylor, captured in another close-up at the very instant that a foul ball smashed off his mask during an otherwise ho-hum game in the midst of summer at Chicago’s Wrigley Field.
Sure, we’re all intrigued by the most notable among us, whether it’s singer Taylor Swift cheering from a football luxury suite or Britain’s King Charles III letting out a gasp from the royal box at the Royal Ascot horse racing meet.
But countless moments give us the full picture.
Thanks to the photographers of The Associated Press, so many of them will remain a timeless part of our memories.

Five things I care about
The Ravens demonstrate their complete transformation
The Ravens took down the 49ers and Dolphins, two of the best operations in the league, by a combined 51 points in back-to-back weeks. They did it on the way to clinching the No. 1 seed in the AFC and vaulting their quarterback to the driver’s seat of the MVP conversation.
Statement wins don’t even begin to do this justice.
As MVP chants rained down all afternoon, Lamar Jackson predictably didn’t engage much and took a “job’s not done” approach in postgame interviews. Jackson and everyone affiliated with the Ravens don’t have their eye on MVP trophies or Week 17 wins. They want the Super Bowl, plain and simple. However, he entertained queries about the differences between this year’s Ravens and previous editions.
After the game, Jackson told Evan Washburn of CBS, “This year our guys stayed locked in,” when comparing Sunday’s win to the last time Baltimore and Miami went to battle. In 2022, the Ravens controlled the game but let it slip away in the fourth quarter as the Dolphins fired vertical shots over the top of the typically stout Ravens defense. Jackson emphasized that this group knows how to finish, something they’ve struggled with in recent seasons. They’ve proven they're different by keeping their foot on the gas and putting away top-tier teams the last two weeks.
That’s not the only way this year’s Ravens are wildly different than previous renditions. You need only look back one year ago today to spot the contrast.
It’s been such a breath of fresh air to watch the Ravens offense this year stocked with actual playmakers. In Week 17 last season, their two most productive WRs each had just one catch for nine yards. pic.twitter.com/VkxHEvoTIQ
— Matt Harmon (@MattHarmon_BYB) December 31, 2023
Look at that box score from 2022's Week 17 loss and compare it with what you watched from the Ravens on Sunday. Lamar Jackson threw five touchdown passes and finished the game with a perfect 158.2 passer rating. The critical note: he activated multiple pass-catchers.
Zay Flowers finished the day with a mere three catches but those went for 106 yards and a score, the majority coming on a 75-yard deep shot with layers of YAC on top. Isaiah Likely scored twice, once on a 35-yard catch-and-run downfield play and another on a beautifully designed leak route near the goal line. Rashod Bateman and Jackson didn’t connect on a 40-plus-yard pass early in the game but the receiver put that behind him and finished with 54 yards and helped move the chains with consistent intermediate route running. Odell Beckham snared a contested catch on a go-route for 33 yards on his lone reception to move the team inside the five-yard line.
Even in the running back room, as Gus Edwards was thumping away, Justice Hill was a consistent source of big plays. He averaged 12.8 yards on his five catches and 16 yards on his three rush attempts. Not to mention a whopping 50.5 yards on his pair of kick returns.
The Ravens have never come close to being able to throw this many playmakers at an opponent. The 2022 Week 17 example is extreme but the lack of truly dangerous, much less multi-layered pass-catchers has haunted the Ravens with Lamar Jackson under center.
In one offseason, they’ve added some serious juice to the offense.
It’s important to note that, while guys like Flowers and Beckham are new faces, some of these players who are making a crucial impact are holdovers. That’s where the coaching change comes in. All of these players are being deployed in a unit with the ruthlessly creative Todd Monken at the controls. If the contrast in juice didn’t catch your eye, the night-and-day difference in the play design certainly should.
Awesome play design on this one https://t.co/IQ11jBstvr
— Matt Harmon (@MattHarmon_BYB) December 31, 2023
As Jackson alluded, the job isn’t done. But as this Baltimore team marches toward their desired goals, they can do so with the confidence that they have the goods that older models didn't possess. They have all the makings of a great, modern NFL offense as they prepare for a postseason run. We don’t know how this journey will end for the 2023 Ravens but we know they’re far better prepared for the road than ever before.
The 49ers take care of business
The team that fell to the Ravens last week was able to shake off their Christmas day letdown in Week 17. The 49ers should beat a floundering Commanders team that was forced into starting the quarterback they tried to bench by double digits — and that’s precisely what they did.
As the defense created chaos on their side, Brock Purdy checked in with all his usual efficient marks. He averaged 8.2 yards per attempt and completed 78.6% of his passes. Purdy consistently connected with his top wideout, Brandon Aiyuk. A Washington defense that can’t cover a soul yet still rolls out more man-to-man than almost anyone in the league was always a plus matchup for Aiyuk.
Yet, it was the nature of their plays that mattered. Aiyuk made catches on out-breaking patterns, in tight coverage on go-routes and put the cherry on top with an improvisational touchdown when Purdy went into creation mode.
So many top-tier plays from Brandon Aiyuk today it’s hard to narrow it down to the best one but this improv play where he and Purdy go into creation mode to get a big window is pretty sweet
— Matt Harmon (@MattHarmon_BYB) December 31, 2023
pic.twitter.com/nuUUs0IHYY
These types of plays simply weren’t present in pre-Purdy iterations of the 49ers offense.
The win did come at something of a cost, as so many fantasy managers are ready to tell you. Typically, I don’t feel bad for gamers when their RB1 touches the ball 18 times and records 91 total yards. When that player is Christian McCaffrey, I’ll allow a small touch of pity.
McCaffrey suffered what was announced as a calf injury in the second half of this game. Elijah Mitchell came in and ultimately helped close this thing out. He's one of the best backup runners in the league. There's no real replacing of McCaffrey and that will certainly be true when the competition gets much tougher than the Commanders.
That’s what makes wrapping up the NFC’s top seed in Week 17 so important, thanks to this win and a stunning Eagles loss. While McCaffrey’s fantasy season is over, his and the 49ers’ real pursuit of glory is just beginning. With the top seed all wrapped up, they can place McCaffrey on ice next week right before the whole team gets a bye during the Wild Card round. We should all — outside of fans of other NFC teams — be rooting for his total health, because as the Aiyuk-to-Purdy connection reminded us on Sunday, this offense is something we just haven’t seen before during a 49ers postseason run.
Jayden Reed
One of my favorite wide receiver prospects from the 2023 NFL Draft was now-Packers rookie, Jayden Reed. Sunday Night Football was just another example in a season’s worth of evidence for why I was so high on Reed. He’s quietly one of the most dynamic players in yet another great rookie class.
Jayden Reed isn't going to be a slot-only player for the Packers@MattHarmon_BYB on Reed's potential ceiling as a high impact player pic.twitter.com/mwYwl2bjd9
— Reception Perception (@RecepPerception) August 25, 2023
Jordan Love’s first pass of the game was a deep shot to Reed. It wasn’t the first time he looked for Reed in the vertical game as the two would later connect on a 33-yard post route. The more Reed shines in the deep game, the better off this Packers offense is. The best part of Reed’s game is that he’s multi-faceted. He can win on big-boy routes against press coverage (as the video above shows) but the Packers are comfortable working him in on designer plays underneath. His second touchdown of the day came on an explosive run-after-catch play after he ran a gorgeous route against man coverage.
I often said during the draft process that Reed was one or two tweaks away from being a high-level starting wide receiver. There are still some kinks Reed needs to work out in the contested-catch game but otherwise, as a separator and runner after the catch, Reed has made those leaps I wanted to see.
The Packers have drafted a lot of skill-position players the last two years. All of them look like they will be useful-to-very-good players in the league. With Jordan Love looking like a quality starter, we should be interested in all of them at different levels.
I said it when he was drafted and I’ll say it again: Reed will be the best of the bunch.
My only negative note from Reed’s rookie season is that he’s been dealing with many nagging injuries this season. He missed the second half of this SNF game after re-aggravating a chest injury he’s been nursing since Week 12. Part of Reed’s appeal is that he’ll handle the dirty work underneath and in the YAC game in addition to his special teams contribution. He’s going to take punishment in those areas. Hopefully, the Packers can work out how to keep him healthy for the long term and allow him to shine fully.
Jayden Reed has superstar potential. Plain and simple. He has the route chops, explosive ability and open-field instincts to be a deadly playmaker. Reed and Love’s connection is perfectly emblematic of the Packers' hyper-fast rebirth on offense. He will be right at the top of my fantasy targets for next season.
Rams cap off an all-time fantasy waiver run
In Week 17, the Los Angeles Rams locked up an NFC playoff berth and they couldn’t have done it without the impact of two unlikely young heroes. Kyren Williams ends the fantasy football season as the RB4 in Yahoo standard scoring in just two games (RB2 in points per game) and Puka Nacua finishes as the WR6.
You were a big-time winner if you went hard at them after Week 1 on waivers.
The Kyren Williams demolition tour, half-point PPR:
— scott pianowski (@scott_pianowski) December 31, 2023
- RB7, RB4, RB26, RB3, RB30, RB2. Missed four games.
- RB1, RB9, RB18, RB5, RB11, RB1 (in progress).
Not everyone could have drafted McCaffrey. Anyone could have FAABed Williams. Most impactful universally-available move.
This is purely anecdotal, but I ran into three to four teams in my own fantasy playoff runs that had both Kyren Williams and Puka Nacua. I talked to multiple people who were facing the same type of squad while giving advice. It wasn't an utterly unseen stack. Imagine getting two elite-level difference-makers off the waiver wire.
That’s one way to push for a championship.
We might never see a situation like this again where two players from the same offense come off the waiver wire and finish as top-10 players. We can still learn two things here, however.
For one, if you can identify the value offense in fantasy football in the offseason, you gain a big edge. The Rams were not often discussed as this type of team but with a veteran high-end quarterback fully healthy in Matthew Stafford to elevate young playmakers and an elite-tier play-caller, they were a fantastic candidate.
Secondly, it pays to be aggressive with your FAAB early in the season. With the rest of the season waiting, it can be hard to blow it all right away. You know there will be some adds you can't even consider making down the line. However, we get some of our most valuable and most surprising revelations in Week 1. If you can adequately react to the correct information, you'll find true difference-makers worth unloading the wallet for early on. Those who went hard for Nacua and Williams are proof positive of profitable early aggression.
Mason Rudolph has been enough
Look, I said many stupid things about the ceiling of the Steelers offense. I overlooked a lot of potential pitfalls for the unit but it was because there was serious talent in the wide receiver and running back rooms. Those takes didn’t age well.
But I had no idea that Mason Rudolph was the guy we needed to get the offense unlocked.
I’m being a bit sarcastic, but there’s no denying that Rudolph has given the Steelers their most productive play behind center in 2023.
Games with 250+ passing yards this season
— Underdog NFL (@Underdog__NFL) December 31, 2023
Mason Rudolph: 2-of-2 starts
Kenny Pickett: 1-of-12 starts
Rudolph has a passer rating north of 100 in back-to-back games. But more importantly, he’s been far more (wisely) aggressive than either of his predecessors.
In Week 17, Rudolph had a 2.8 time to throw and averaged 8.0 air yards per pass attempt. He’s willing to stand in under pressure and fire the ball downfield. George Pickens has come alive in the last two weeks. He recorded another 131 yards after taking over the game in Week 16. Even the customarily target-constricted Diontae Johnson hauled in multiple deep receptions against Seattle.
While I don’t think Rudolph is anything close to the answer for Pittsburgh’s future questions at quarterback, I at least owe him an apology for completely writing him off. He’s shined a light on the mercurial talent in this receiver room by simply giving them accurate chances downfield. At the very least, he’s served as a reason to be in on these wideouts again in 2024 if the Steelers are serious about upgrading the offensive coordinator and quarterback spot. For that reason alone, he’s been enough.
Five things I don’t care about
Previously-held limitations on CeeDee Lamb
Prior to 2023, there had been a general sense of “wanting more” from CeeDee Lamb’s statistical output. As this season winds to a close, those sentiments are ancient history.
On Saturday, he put on a complete and utter show against an overmatched Lions secondary. By the time the game ended, Lamb had locked up his spot as the Cowboys franchise leader in receptions (122) and receiving yards (1,651). He’s currently the top-scoring wideout in fantasy football.
Lamb was one of the right answers.
I have folks asking me if he should be in the Justin Jefferson tier in dynasty fantasy football — and even ranked ahead of the Vikings wideout. If you don’t play in that format, the gravity of that sentence may not hit but essentially Jefferson’s place atop the receiver rankings was nearly untouchable. Maybe I’m being a prisoner of the moment but I think it’s worth a conversation.
Lamb has more than graduated into the elite tier of NFL wide receivers. He’s among the best in the game and is a spectacular separator against every form of coverage at every level. Unlike Jefferson, I know for sure who will be throwing him the ball next season and can project his partnership with Dak Prescott for multiple seasons to come.
Final note on this: CeeDee Lamb made noise after the 49ers loss, stating that he wasn't getting enough work. It's hard to remember now but this Cowboys offense was not making him the focal point of the passing game to start the season and the on-field product was suffering. It was clearly an issue and the receiver called it out. His opportunity was not in line with his ability. Targets aren't just earned — they need to be assigned and Dallas wasn't doing a good enough job there. It was easy to see.
Said a lot of dumb things this season, I say a lot of dumb things every season, but charting CeeDee Lamb today and I feel really good about calling for the Cowboys offense to revolve around CeeDee right before Week 6...when they did exactly that and went on a tear. It was so… https://t.co/ila2y8pUeo

So let this serve as a reminder when we want to criticize receivers for making noise about their lack of opportunity. Sometimes, these guys are right and they can help their team win by getting more work. That’s especially true when said receiver is an obvious stone-cold baller who is almost always open like CeeDee Lamb. What an incredible season for the fourth-year receiver.
The Eagles' talent
A few weeks ago, in this very same column, my stance on the Eagles was that even if they were playing below their record while beating subpar teams, they’d eventually be fine because they have better players than most of their opponents.
At this point, my stance has well since changed.
The warning signs have been building for weeks. A Week 17 loss to the now 4-12 Cardinals that dramatically helps their NFC rivals sounds the panic alarms.
The Eagles offense had their moments. Jalen Hurts tossed three touchdowns, including two to Julio Jones. They had an efficient day on the ground in a plus matchup. But they weren't perfect; they haven't been on that side of the ball all season. We know that's a massive issue for the Eagles at this stage of their season because the defense gives this team zero margin for error.
Kyler Murray became just the latest quarterback to tear apart the Eagles' pass defense. His 116.7 passer rating was easily his best since returning to the NFL field in early November. He hadn’t completed over 67% of his throws in any game. He checked in with 80.6% in Week 17. Murray had gone under 6.5 yards per attempt in all of his previous four games. The Eagles afforded him a 7.5 average.
Murray and the Cardinals found this level of passing success without their No. 1 receiver in Marquise Brown and their breakout tight end recording just 48 yards on seven targets. Eight Cardinals caught a pass against the Eagles. They could burn this defense in any such way.
Again, none of this is new. The Eagles' pass defense has been an issue all year long. The more troubling part is that the run defense has completely fallen apart as the season comes to a close.
James Conner became the latest bell-cow back to barrel through this front seven. He took his 26 carries for 128 yards and a score. Even backup running back Michael Carter averaged a whopping 8.7 yards per carry. The Eagles employ many proven veterans and several highly drafted players in the front four. And yet it was Arizona that controlled the line of scrimmage.
The Eagles defense is beyond a problem. It’s a key part of their identity and a crippling factor in their disappointing season. The offense has to cover for it and nothing that side of the ball has shown this season over the last two months gives you faith they can be that dominant of a group. And with No. 2 receiver DeVonta Smith leaving the game on crutches in a walking boot, that assignment is only going to get more complicated if he has to miss time.
Talent can trump all when that talent is available and playing to the height of its power. That just hasn’t been true of the 2023 Philadelphia Eagles.
Bucs offense when they’re off-script
Of course, the week I made a big deal about Baker Mayfield being my biggest miss of the 2023 season on the podcast, the Bucs laid an egg against an inferior Saints team at home. That said, I don’t think this offense is the biggest concern around this team. That would be the defense.
The Bucs can still win the NFC South if they merely beat the lowly Panthers next week. They should get the job done and overall, are still the best option to represent this division in the postseason. They have the most intriguing ceiling when the offense is cooking. There’s just next to no shot anyone can take them seriously against playoff-level competition with that defense.
Even if the Cowboys and Eagles, the two teams they’d likely face in Round 1 of the postseason, have their issues, both teams have the skill-position talent to rip apart that defense. Maybe with the serious concerns the Eagles are facing with their own stop unit the Bucs would have a chance to win in a shootout but it’s a stretch.
This Week 17 result was a reminder that when you can push the Tampa Bay offense behind the action by multiple scores in negative game script, you won’t get their best in return. Turnover creeps into Mayfield's game and what’s starting to develop into a solid run game with Rachaad White becomes irrelevant.
Justin Fields’ flaws
Justin Fields is not perfect. Anyone can see that. He takes too many sacks and isn’t always perfectly in rhythm in the underneath passing game.
I care about those flaws, but not enough to dissuade a quarterback-needy team that isn't in a position to take a top rookie prospect from a pursuit of the soon-to-be former Bears passer.
With the Panthers' loss today, Chicago officially netted the first overall pick in the draft. It’s nothing short of a coup to acquire a future first and for that pick to become the top selection. Twists of fate don’t always bend to this level of fortune. The Bears know that and will likely cash in that lottery ticket to restart the quarterback clock. Fields is a known commodity and the rookies are not but the upside of Caleb Williams or Drake Maye will be too enticing to pass up.
That will put Fields on the move and they can get a decent return for him. Sam Darnold was once traded for a future second-round pick and additional selections. This would be a similar type of swap out for young quarterbacks but Fields has been much better than Darnold was in New York to start his career.
Fields appears to be ending the 2023 season on a high note. As Week 17 comes to a close, he is second behind only Lamar Jackson in quarterback rushing yards despite only playing 12 games, and more importantly, he vaulted DJ Moore to a career season. Moore sits at 1,300 yards receiving and nine total scores, both career-high marks. Fields and Moore were excellent at slicing apart man coverage, an excellent signal for the passers’ future endeavors.
Fields isn’t the picture-perfect franchise solution for his next team but he’s some level of an answer. There will be teams out there that aren’t in range for a difference-making rookie who should come calling on Fields. Some of those teams will actually offer superior offensive line play, offense-centric coaching staffs and perhaps a deep set of wide receivers — the Bears got next to nothing from anyone beyond Moore — than what Fields experienced in Chicago.
The Jaguars win
I shouldn’t be so hard on Jacksonville. I often say that blowout wins can tell us something and great teams demolish bad teams. Well, the Jaguars indeed swept away the Panthers with relative ease. However, I’m not sure beating a team this deep into chaos, where their owner apparently throws drinks into a crowd, moves me much.
This video appears to show Panthers owner David Tepper throwing the contents of a drinking cup in the direction of (presumably) a Jaguars fan today. This is shocking. https://t.co/xv3du6hJlp
— Jonathan Jones (@jjones9) December 31, 2023
Any good vibes Carolina enjoyed last week in an upset win while Bryce Young put up career-best passing numbers were quickly wiped away this week. Even if Jacksonville’s offense struggled to move the ball, the Panthers just went nowhere on their side. They officially sent the No. 1 overall pick to the Chicago Bears with Sunday’s result.
The Jaguars were able to get a big play out of the run game with Travis Etienne Jr. on a 62-yard touchdown scamper. That was a welcome sign for a team that’s struggled to run the ball for months. The run blocking has been a mess at times but much like the issues in the passing game, you can chalk up most of the issues to overall design. Etienne got out in space on this run, where he’s at his best. There just hasn’t been enough of that this season.
Press Taylor kept this guy under 4.0 YPC for an entire season https://t.co/t719vJDPIH
— Mario Puig (@ThePostingScout) December 31, 2023
At least he closed things out for his fantasy managers. His fantasy numbers have mostly been a mirage and not even close to indicative of the health of Jacksonville’s run game. Nevertheless, he rewarded gamers with a hammer shot in Week 17.
Given the matchup, I just struggle to put much stock into a new wrinkle like this. It would be great to see more of this from Jacksonville as they head into a postseason push. So, do it again. Go out and run on the Titans, who so often sell out to stop ground games, in Week 18. Make a statement before heading into the NFL playoffs — because doing it to the Panthers just doesn’t move the needle. | https://www.wmmo.com/news/national/week-17-caredont/IAYA5UFITTPDTEUBAQLNHTCPTE/ | 2024-01-01T04:38:25Z |

BRISBANE, Australia — (AP) — Naomi Osaka’s first win at the elite level since becoming a mother didn’t come easily. It did come on Day 1 of the year, though. So that was two items Osaka checked off the list Monday for her comeback to professional tennis.
The former No. 1-ranked Osaka was broken while serving for the match at 5-3 in the second set and needed three match points before converting in the tiebreaker for a 6-3, 7-6 (9) victory over Tamara Korpatsch in the first round of the Brisbane International.
“I was super nervous the whole time,” Osaka, 26, said of her comeback match against the 28-year-old German player.
A two-time Australian and U.S. Open champion, Osaka pulled out of last year’s Australian Open in Melbourne before later revealing she was pregnant. The U.S.-based Japanese player and her partner, rapper Cordae, became parents to daughter Shai in Los Angeles in July.
Osaka had only played one game since her first-round exit at the 2022 U.S. Open. She was leading Daria Gavrilova 1-0 at the Pan Pacific Open in Tokyo in September of that year before the Australian retired from the match with injury.
Osaka said she has a renewed focus on living in the moment when it comes to her tennis.
“The last couple years that I played before I had my daughter, I didn’t return as much love as I was given,” she told the crowd at Pat Rafter Arena. "So I really feel like that’s what I want to do in this chapter.
"I just really appreciate people coming out and people knowing me and cheering for me.
Reigning Australian Open champion Aryna Sabalenka, Elena Rybakina, Jelena Ostapenko, Victoria Azarenka, Sofia Kenin and Sloane Stephens are also in the 64-player women's draw at the Brisbane International, one of the key tune-up events for the Australian Open in Melbourne.

How Arizonans can prepare for potential impaired drivers on New Year’s Eve
PHOENIX (3TV/CBS 5) - It’s New Year’s Eve, and that means plenty of people are out and about celebrating the final hours before the new year. It’s always important not to drink and drive, but that’s especially true on a night when many others might be consuming alcoholic beverages.
Police departments are out in full force, with officers looking for erratic driving patterns. They want drivers to be aware of their surroundings as well. For Jennifer Thompson, a Phoenix mom whose daughter Felicia was killed because of two impaired drivers, that message hits a little closer to home.
“My world came crashing down,” Thompson said. “And it has never been the same.” Almost 17 years after losing her daughter, Thompson is still processing that loss. “Every day is a different day,” she said. “You never really get past that pain or that grief. You just learn to deal with it and cope with it.”
For Thompson, part of that coping process is spreading the message to family and friends to plan ahead when there might be drinking involved. “If my daughters are going out and about, they’re going to call me and say hey mom can you come get me?” Thompson said. “I would rather pick them up at two o’clock in the morning than have a knock on the front door like I did 16 years ago that my child is dead.”
Mesa Police’s George Chwe says even if you haven’t been drinking much, it still could be enough to drive impaired. “If you feel different, you’re going to drive different,” Chwe said. “So regardless of how many you’ve consumed, don’t ever think you’re just under. Just look for an alternative method to get home.”
That could mean an Uber, a Lyft, or just having a designated driver. Chwe says that taking extra caution at intersections can go a long way for those on the roads on New Year’s Eve.
“Try not to stay in the curb lane driving at night,” he said. “A lot of impaired drivers tend to fail to stop at stop signs. If you have a green light at an intersection that just went from red to green, don’t just drive right away.”
A DUI can mean jail time, fines, or both. If you’ve already had one, or there are kids under 15 in the car, the punishment will be more severe. In Thompson’s eyes, that’s necessary; Felicia’s absence is a constant reminder of the consequences impaired driving can have. “It’s deadly on those roads,” she said. “It’s nothing to play around with.”
Chwe says you don’t have to drink alcohol to get a DUI. Any kind of impairment, whether it’s marijuana or some other kind of drug, can lead to a DUI arrest if someone is not operating a vehicle safely. If you see someone driving recklessly, call 911.

Following a dry autumn season, El Nino flexed its muscles and the water tables are in good shape across the D.C. metro area.
Even as late as Dec. 12, D.C. was in an abnormally dry spell thanks to a dry fall season.
The District tallied 6.76 inches of rain from Sept. 1 to Nov. 30; a whopping 3.74 inches below average.
That all changed when waterlogged systems pushed December’s rainfall to 5.08 inches, as of Christmas Day.
Even without the expected 0.50-1.0 inch expected Tuesday into Wednesday, this month ranks as D.C’s 11th wettest December.
The common theme with the most recent wet Decembers in D.C., as seen below, is El Nino.
Just one month ago, the Shenandoah Valley was in a moderate to extreme drought thanks to the dry autumn.
The same turn of events in D.C. has led to drought improvement along I-81. Extreme drought has been erased and moderate to severe drought coverage has decreased by a whopping 19% this month.
Charlottesville, Virginia, had its 13th driest autumn season with 6.04 inches of rain while December will rank in the top 20 for wettest with at least 3.77 inches of rain.
There is no sign of El Nino letting up until late spring, so a strong subtropical jet stream will likely enhance rainfall through the winter months. If the perfect recipe of moisture and cold come together, then D.C. could get a big snow, but based on trends, that won’t happen until late January or February. So stay tuned.

LAREDO, Texas — Customs officers seized narcotics with an estimated street value of $10.2 million at a border crossing between Texas and Mexico, authorities said.
According to a news release from U.S. Customs and Border Protection, agents seized the drugs at the World Trade Bridge in Laredo on Dec. 21.
A customs officer referred a 2001 Freightliner tractor hauling a utility refrigerated trailer with a manifest of a commercial shipment of cut flowers for secondary inspection, the news release stated.
During the inspection, officers discovered 164.72 pounds of alleged methamphetamine in powder form, 854.07 pounds of alleged meth in crystal form and 165.34 pounds of alleged cocaine.
Officials estimated that the drugs had a combined street value of $10,298,520.
Agents seized the narcotics, and Homeland Security Investigations special agents are investigating the seizure, the news release stated.
“CBP is proud of the work our frontline officers do to ensure the safety and wellbeing of our communities,” Alberto Flores, director at the Laredo Port of Entry, said in a statement. “This significant seizure is an example of ongoing operational efforts conducted daily to protect our borders.” | https://www.wmmo.com/news/trending/customs-officers-seize-meth-cocaine-valued-102m-border-crossing/QORQLDR44JGF7NUPEPNKB56NDU/ | 2024-01-01T04:38:33Z |
Braving sub-zero temperatures, hundreds of locals and tourists thronged the iconic Ghanta Ghar at Lal Chowk on New Year's eve in Srinagar.
As the Sun set over 2023 for the last time, the refurbished Ghanta Ghar square started to come alive with New Year celebrations.
While assemblies at Ghanta Ghar prior to 2019 were mostly protests or secessionist in nature, Sunday's gathering was different.
"This is for the first time we are having a New Year party in a public place. We used to have such parties earlier as well but those were limited to the elite class and organised behind closed doors of hotels," Aqib Ahmad, a 22-year-old city resident, said as he swerved to the tunes of songs played from the stage set up at Lal Chowk.
Until a few years ago, it was unthinkable to have a New Year party in a public place but things have changed now, he said.
"Everyone wants to have some entertainment in life. Look around and you will find people from all walks of life. You have people with conservative outlook and you have modern looking people too. They are all having a good time," he added.
Not only the city residents, Kashmiris from other parts of the Valley also descended on the summer capital to enjoy the New Year festivities.
"I was pleasantly surprised at the scale of the event organised in the city. Similar functions should be held in all district headquarters from next year," said Lateef Khatana, a resident of a remote village in Kokernag area of Anatnag district.
Khatana and his friends had travelled more than 100 kilometres to experience the 'first new year programme of Kashmir'.
Satish Kumar and his family had come from Delhi in the hopes of celebrating the new year in Kashmir.
"It is our first visit to Kashmir and to be honest we were disappointed at not finding much snow. However, this electric atmosphere has more than made up for that disappointment. We are feeling at home, though it is a little colder than Delhi here," Kumar said.
While the celebrations were being held with gusto, the authorities are not taking any chances as adequate security arrangements have been put in place to prevent any untoward incident.
A senior police official said law enforcing agencies are maintaining a tight vigil around Lal Chowk.
"We want to ensure that locals and tourists have a good time here and everyone takes back good memories from here," the official said. | https://www.rediff.com/news/report/in-a-first-new-year-celebrated-at-lal-chowk/20240101.htm | 2024-01-01T04:38:33Z |
Colleges should guarantee employment of young people - Zhambyl rgn governor
"Last year, the construction of 14 education facilities totaling KZT 4.9 billion was carried out in our region. 9 schools and 66 kindergartens were commissioned before the academic year. KZT 232.4 million was allocated for the maintenance of 221 educational institutions, and these are 149 schools, 59 kindergartens, and 13 out-of-school institutions. This year, another school is being built. This will completely solve the problem of three-shift schools. The construction of four other schools will continue," said Rakhia Turmakhmanbetova, Head of the Zhambyl Regional Education Department.
It is expected that in the next three years, 48 new general education institutions will emerge in the region and 85 existing ones will be thoroughly upgraded.
The talented children of the region have a promising future. "Last year, for the seventh year in a row, our schoolchildren won national subject olympiads and scientific project competitions. For six years in a row, at the national science competitions, the Zhambyl team has been recognized as the best in the country," the speaker said.
According to the head of the education department, 27,396 students have entered Zhambyl region's 48 technical and vocational education colleges, 35 of which have adopted a dual education system. However, the employment of graduates is of concern.
Governor of Zhambyl region Askar Myrzakhmetov assigned to monitor the systematic spending of KZT 7 billion allocated for state educational grants. It is possible to save money by training the specialists that are in demand in the society. The heads of districts are to work on the study of their areas so that to request from among college graduates the specialists, which would be necessary for their districts.
The head of the region pointed out that colleges should guarantee the employment of its graduates, underlining the importance of training unemployed youth in the professions which are in demand in the society.
It should be mentioned that KZT 106.1 billion was allocated to the education sector in 2018. | https://en.inform.kz/amp/colleges-should-guarantee-employment-of-young-people-zhambyl-rgn-governor_a3493112/ | 2024-01-01T04:38:35Z |

MINNEAPOLIS — (AP) — Jordan Love threw three touchdown passes and ran for a score to put the Green Bay Packers in control of a spot in the playoffs with a 33-10 victory over the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday night.
Aaron Jones rushed for 120 yards and Jayden Reed had two touchdown catches for the Packers (8-8), who can get the NFC's last wild-card spot by beating Chicago at home next week. They moved above the cut when Seattle lost earlier in the day.
Love went 24 for 33 for 256 yards in what might have been the finest game in his first season as the Packers' starter in the post-Aaron Rodgers era.
The Vikings (7-9) benched another turnover-prone quarterback after an interception and a fumble by Jaren Hall in the first half were converted into touchdowns by the Packers. Nick Mullens took over for Hall for the second half, the fifth time the Vikings have switched quarterbacks since Kirk Cousins tore his Achilles tendon in the fourth quarter of a 24-10 win at Green Bay on Oct. 29.
Detroit clinched the NFC North by beating Minnesota here last week, marking just the second time in 13 seasons the division wasn't won by either the Packers or the Vikings, but a prime-time game between these border-state rivals always generates plenty of energy in the stadium.
Cousins got the party off to a rowdy start when he — wearing a thick gold chain around his neck — and his son ripped off their shirts to lead the crowd in the "Skol!" chant and blow the Gjallarhorn. The "Go Pack Go!" serenades quickly joined the soundtrack, though, and this became quite the New Year's Eve blowout.
Love was flustered two months ago in Green Bay by the Vikings defense. But despite his penchant for overthrows, he has come a long way and given the Packers abundant optimism for the future at quarterback that is missing in Minnesota with Cousins set to become a free agent and no clarity about a potential return.
Hall, who was the first reliever for Cousins two months ago only to be forced out of his first start with a concussion, hardly had any time to throw. Green Bay's defense that was shredded over the last three games by the Giants, Buccaneers and Panthers — and now missing starting cornerbacks Jaire Alexander (suspension) and Eric Stokes (hamstring) — took full advantage of the rookie from BYU.
Hall’s off-target throw in the first quarter glanced off the hands of Johnny Mundt — in an elevated role after the season-ending knee injury to Pro Bowl tight end T.J. Hockenson — and in the air to Carrington Valentine for an interception. Love’s 33-yard touchdown pass to Reed came two plays later.
Preston Smith’s strip-sack of Hall with 26 seconds left before halftime sealed the deal. Karl Brooks recovered at the Minnesota 37, and the Love-to-Reed connection got Green Bay in the end zone three plays after that for a 23-3 lead.
REED IS BOOKING IT
Reed has 10 touchdown catches to lead the Packers. The second-round draft pick from Michigan State set the franchise rookie record with 60 receptions, passing Sterling Sharpe (1988).
Both of Reed’s scores belong on the season highlight reel. Love did the work on the first one with the prettiest pass of the game to hit Reed in stride on a post route. Reed did the heavy lifting on the second by running a crossing route, dodging two tacklers after the catch and dragging two more defenders into the end zone.
Reed hurt his chest on that play and didn’t return for the second half. With Christian Watson and Dontayvion Wicks already sidelined by injuries, the Packers have some depth concern at wide receiver after Samori Toure also left in the fourth quarter.
INJURY REPORT
Packers: Smith and RB A.J. Dillon (neck) left with injuries in the third quarter. ... LB Isaiah McDuffie (concussion) was carted off in the second quarter when he collided with Lukas Van Ness and Colby Wooden during a sack. McDuffie started in place of De’Vondre Campbell (neck), who missed his second consecutive game.
Vikings: RG Ed Ingram (shoulder) left in the third quarter. ... CB Byron Murphy (knee) was sidelined for the second straight game.
UP NEXT
Packers: host Chicago next Sunday.
Vikings: play at Detroit next Sunday.

PARIS (AP) — The forecourt of Paris City Hall buzzes with activity this holiday season: Children spinning on a sparkling carousel, shoppers browsing a Christmas market, tourists posing in front of huge signs advertising the 2024 Olympics — and dozens of migrant families searching for a roof over their heads.
About 50 families with children between three months and 10 years old gathered on City Hall plaza on Christmas evening, to meet members of aid groups who distribute food, blankets and diapers and help find temporary lodging. A similar scene plays out most nights beneath the ornate facade of the Paris monument.
Some sat on pieces of cardboard with their suitcases. A toddler who arrived in socks was given shoes, and an older child was given a gift in shiny wrapping.
Many of the families are from French-speaking African countries, including Burkina Faso, Ivory Coast and Senegal.
Aicha, 20, is among those seeking shelter. She arrived in Paris from Mali in 2020 and gave birth to a baby boy, Ismael, last year.
“We sleep here outside or in the metro, but it’s not safe because there are thugs. It’s complicated, we have to negotiate, we have no solution. But it’s not just me, there are lots of families who sleep outside,” she told The Associated Press. She spoke on condition her full name not be published because she doesn’t have residency papers.
Zoe Lafargoutte, a member of migrant aid group Utopia 56, said they find space for about 20-40% of those in need every evening.
‘’We try to distribute tents and blankets so that they can sleep, even if it’s not ideal, or we direct them to hospitals, to places where they can spend the night in a bit of warmth,’’ she said.
Aid workers are concerned that Paris authorities will clear out migrants and others sleeping in the rough before next year’s Olympics without providing longer-term housing options. Olympics organizers say they are working with aid groups to find solutions for those in the streets, including the many people who come from around the world to Paris seeking refuge or employment.
Utopia 56 member Perine Rident says the Olympic Games can also draw attention to the broader problem.
“If you want to take the silver lining, is at least people are talking about it,” Rident said.

FORT MYERS, Fla. — A Southwest Florida man is accused of attempting an abduction of a 4-year-old boy at a Walmart, authorities said.
According to Lee County Sheriff’s online booking records, Pablo Pintueles Hernandez, 64, of Lehigh Acres, was arrested Friday and charged with false imprisonment of a child 13 years old and under.
Surveillance video posted to the sheriff’s office Facebook page showed Pintueles Hernandez appearing to walk up to the child, grabbing his wrist and attempting to walk away with the boy, WINK-TV reported.
The video showed family members intervening and pulling the child away, WBBH-TV reported.
Analysts and deputies said they used advanced technology to identify and locate Pintueles Hernandez, WINK reported. Deputies responded to the suspect’s residence within an hour of viewing the footage, according to the television station.
“What this criminal did is incredibly disturbing,” Lee County Sheriff Carmine Marceno said in a statement. “I never want anyone in Lee County to feel unsafe, especially going on a simple shopping trip. My team will stop at NOTHING to ensure criminals like this face the consequences of their actions.”
Pintueles Hernandez is scheduled to appear in court on Jan. 29, court records show. | https://www.wmmo.com/news/trending/man-accused-trying-kidnap-4-year-old-boy-walmart/BHCFQABRXZCRTKSQP3JXBIR4VQ/ | 2024-01-01T04:38:39Z |
The Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) is set to welcome the new year with the launch of its first X-Ray Polarimeter Satellite that would offer insights into celestial objects like black holes, onboard a Polar Satellite Launch Vehicle rocket on Monday.
The launch comes after the success of its Gaganyaan Test Vehicle D1 mission in October.
The PSLV-C58 rocket, in its 60th mission, would carry primary payload XPoSat and 10 other satellites to be deployed in low earth orbits.
The 25-hour countdown commenced on Sunday for the lift-off scheduled at 9.10 am from the first launch pad at this spaceport, located about 135 kms east of Chennai, on January 1.
"The countdown commenced for PSLV-C58 at 8.10 am today," ISRO sources said.
The X-ray Polarimeter Satellite (XPoSat) is aimed to investigate the polarisation of intense X-ray sources in space.
According to ISRO, it is the first dedicated scientific satellite from ISRO to carry out research in space-based polarisation measurements of X-ray emission from celestial sources.
Besides ISRO, the US-based National Aeronautics Space Agency (NASA) conducted a similar study -- the Imaging X-Ray Polarimetry Explorer mission in December 2021 on the remnants of supernova explosions, the particle streams emitted by black holes and other cosmic events.
While space-based X-ray astronomy has been established in India focusing on imaging, and time domain studies, Monday's mission marks a major value-addition to the scientific fraternity, the space agency said.
The objective of the PSLV-C58 mission includes measuring polarisation of X-rays in the energy band 8-30 keV emanating from about 50 potential cosmic sources, to carry out long term spectral and temporal studies of cosmic x-ray sources.
The X-Ray polarisation serves as a crucial diagnostic tool for examining the radiation mechanism and geometry of celestial sources.
The primary payload of XPoSat is POLIX (Polarimeter Instrument in X-Rays) which is designed to measure polarimetry parameters by Raman Research Institute and XSPECT (X-ray Spectroscopy and Timing) built by the U R Rao Satellite Centre, Bengaluru. The Mission life is about 5 years.
The space-based study of X-Ray polarisation is gaining utmost importance internationally, and in this context, the XPoSat mission would play a significant role, ISRO added.
XPoSat is anticipated to bring substantial benefits to the Astronomy community globally. Apart from its capability of timing and spectroscopy-based observations, the insights derived from X-ray polarisation measurements on celestial objects like black holes, neutron stars, and active galactic nuclei, hold the potential to significantly improve the understanding of their physics.
The mission is poised to play a pivotal role in building expertise in X-Ray polarimetry in India, providing a foundation for future advancements and fostering a collaborative network within the astronomy community.
The 44.4-meter-tall PSLV rocket would first deploy the primary satellite into a 650 km Low Earth Orbit around 21 minutes after lift-off and later the scientists would bring the satellite to a lower altitude of about 350 km by restarting the fourth stage of the vehicle, for conducting the PSLV Orbital Experimental Module-3 (POEM-3) experiment.
It may be recalled that the space agency conducted a similar scientific experiment using POEM-2 in the PSLV-C55 mission in April 2023.
The rocket that will fly is the PSLV-DL variant which has a lift-off mass of 260 tonnes. The fourth stage is configured as a 3-axis stabilized Orbital platform for conducting experiments.
The payloads are Radiation Shielding Experiment Module by TakeMe2Space, Women Engineered Satellite by LBS Institute of Technology for Women, BeliefSat (an amateur radio satellite) built by K J Somaiya Institute of Technology, Green Impulse Transmitter by Inspecity Space Labs Pvt Ltd, LEATTD -- Launching Expeditions for Aspiring Technologies Technology Demonstrator by Dhruva Space Pvt Ltd, RUDRA 0.3HPGP and ARKA 200 developed by Bellatrix Aerospace Pvt Ltd, Dust Experiment (DEX) built by PRL, ISRO and Fuel Cell Power System and Si based High Energy cell built by Vikram Sarabhai Space Centre. | https://www.rediff.com/news/report/isro-set-to-launch-satellite-to-study-black-holes/20240101.htm | 2024-01-01T04:38:40Z |

Golf-PGA Tour unable to finalize deal with PIF ahead of Dec. 31 deadline
In June, the PGA Tour, PIF and DP World Tour announced a framework agreement to house their commercial operations in a new for-profit entity, PGA Tour Enterprises, and set Dec. 31 as a deadline to reach a definitive agreement. As talks with the PIF, the main financial backer of LIV Golf, dragged on, outside investor interest in the PGA Tour has since heated up by way of SSG, an investment group headlined by Fenway Sports Group.
The PGA Tour was unable to finalize a definitive partnership agreement with Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund ahead of a Dec. 31 deadline but wants to extend negotiations into 2024 given "active and productive conversations", according to a memo seen by Reuters.
The PGA Tour has made "meaningful progress" in negotiations with Strategic Sports Group (SSG), the consortium of U.S.-based professional sports team investors that have entered the fray, according to a memo sent on Sunday to players by PGA Tour Commissioner Jay Monahan. "These partnerships will allow us to unify, innovate and invest in the game for the benefit of players, fans and sponsors," Monahan wrote in the memo.
According to Monahan, the PGA Tour's goal for 2024 is to reach agreements with SSG, PIF and the Europe-based DP World Tour, bringing them on board as minority co-investors in PGA Tour Enterprises. In June, the PGA Tour, PIF and DP World Tour announced a framework agreement to house their commercial operations in a new for-profit entity, PGA Tour Enterprises, and set Dec. 31 as a deadline to reach a definitive agreement.
As talks with the PIF, the main financial backer of LIV Golf, dragged on, outside investor interest in the PGA Tour has since heated up by way of SSG, an investment group headlined by Fenway Sports Group. The framework agreement with the PIF, which came after the PGA Tour lost a handful of high-profile names to LIV Golf, divided the golfing world and irked some U.S. lawmakers.
PGA and DP World Tour did not immediately reply to requests for comment outside normal business hours and Reuters was not immediately able to reach PIF. U.S. senators blasted the deal as "sportswashing," where the kingdom uses sports to improve its reputation as it faces criticism of its human rights record.
The expiration of the deadline comes after reigning Masters champion Jon Rahm, who had long been a consistent voice against LIV Golf, agreed on Dec. 7 to join the rival league for a deal that was reportedly in the range of $500 million. For now, the tours will run independently, with LIV Golf holding the majority of its 14-event 2024 season outside the United States and the PGA Tour returning to a calendar-year schedule for the first time since 2012.
The PGA Tour will also unveil a radical new approach during its 2024 season as five of its eight limited-field signature events will have no cuts, a move made partly as a reaction to LIV Golf's structure.

MIAMI-DADE COUNTY, Fla. — A South Florida business owner is accused of shooting a landscaper on Friday after the worker allegedly blew leaves onto his property, authorities said.
According to Miami-Dade County online booking records, Claudio Arrendell, 52, was charged with one count of attempted murder.
Police said that Arrendell, the owner of P&P Auto Tire Shop in northwestern Miami-Dade County, got into an argument with the landscaper, WTVJ-TV reported.
A judge gave the business owner no bond on Saturday, after allegedly shooting a landscaper over leaves blown onto his property. Here's the latest: https://t.co/pCUhEtiKi5

Australia opener David Warner said on Monday he had decided to call time on his one-day international and test careers to spend more time with his family. The 37-year-old, a key member of the Australia team that won the 50-overs World Cup for the sixth time in India last year, will play his 112th and final test against Pakistan at his home Sydney Cricket Ground starting on Wednesday.
"I said at the World Cup that I wanted to get through that ... but I've decided to also announce my retirement from that format," Warner told reporters at the Sydney Cricket Ground. "It'll help the one-day team move along a bit ... but if they need me, they know where I am." Warner scored 22 centuries and 6,932 runs at an average of 45.30 over 161 one-day internationals after his debut in January 2009, winning two World Cups in the format.

MOSCOW (AP) — Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny on Tuesday released a sardonic statement about his transfer to a Arctic prison colony nicknamed the “Polar Wolf,” his first appearance since associates lost contact with him three weeks ago.
Navalny, the most prominent and persistent domestic foe of President Vladimir Putin, is serving a 19-year sentence on an extremism conviction. He had been incarcerated in central Russia’s Vladimir region, about 230 kilometers (140 miles) east of Moscow, but supporters said he couldn’t be found beginning on Dec. 6.
They said Monday that he had been traced to a prison colony infamous for severe conditions in the Yamalo-Nenets region, about 1,900 kilometers (1,200 miles) northeast of Moscow.
“I am your new Santa Claus,” Navalny said in a tweet, referring to his location above the Arctic Circle in the prison in the town of Kharp.
The region is notorious for long and severe winters. The town is about 100 kilometers (60 miles) from Vorkuta, whose coal mines were among the harshest of the Soviet Gulag prison-camp system.
Navalny, who is noted for sharply humorous comments, said he was in a good mood after being transported to the new prison, but suggested the northern winter darkness is discouraging: “I don’t say ‘Ho-ho-ho,’ but I do say ‘Oh-oh-oh’ when I look out of the window, where I can see night, then the evening, and then the night again.”
Prisoner transfers in Russia often result in contact with inmates being lost for weeks. Navalny’s supporters contend the transfer was arranged to keep Navalny out of sight amid Putin’s announcement that he will run for another term as president in the March election.
Navalny has been behind bars in Russia since January 2021, when he returned to Moscow after recuperating in Germany from nerve agent poisoning that he blamed on the Kremlin. Before his arrest, he campaigned against official corruption and organized major anti-Kremlin protests.
He has since received three prison terms and spent months in isolation in Penal Colony No. 6 for alleged minor infractions. He has rejected all charges against him as politically motivated.

Overtime 2nd and 8, NYJ 22
With Ryan Fitzpatrick in the shotgun, Eric Decker motions across the line and brings Malcolm Butler with him. So Brandon Marshall, who is outside the numbers, and Deck, in the slot, are on the same side of the field. The Patriots are in nickel personnel and the single-high safety shades to the side of the terrific tandem. Meanwhile Quincy Enunwa gets a free release off the line and Kenbrell Thompkins creates traffic with a rub route. "It was little simple slant/flat combinations," said Enunwa. "We just kind of got a great rub — me and KT had been running that play the whole game. We practiced it hard throughout the week and as soon as I caught the ball and turned around, I just saw the play develop so well." An aggressive attempt to go underneath backfires for the Patriots S Tavon Wilson and Enunwa showcases his run after the catch. And he finished the play as the Jets got into scoring possession with a 48-yard gain. "Quincy is just a game changer in terms of the stuff he does for us in the run game, so they were playing off coverage on him and press outside," Fitzpatrick said. "Quincy was able to get to the flat and you saw his strength and his athleticism on that play when he took off down the sideline."
Overtime
2nd and 6, NE 26Back in the gun, Fitzpatrick is flanked by Chris Ivory to his right and Eric Decker to his left. Decker motions to the right of the line and then comes back to the left. So again, he provides an issue because the Jets have No. 87 and No. 15 on the same side of the field. Decker sits in the flat while Marshall takes off down the field. Logan Ryan, originally lined up across from Marshall, allows the 6'4", 230-pounder to pass through. Malcolm Butler, who followed Decker in motion, also lets Marshall run by as Fitzpatrick does a great job with his eyes. Butler slams on the brakes, but he is too late on the turn. Marshall is free and Fitz is on the money.
Overtime
1st and Goal, NE 6Quincy Enunwa's motion creates room to the right side of the field. With Kenbrell Thompkins outside the numbers, Eric Decker is in the slot. Fitzpatrick has a simple man coverage look and he and Decker are in concert from the get-go. Fitzpatrick's toss – his franchise-tying 29th of the season – is absolutely beautiful. "I missed him on a few throws and he didn't have a lot of balls come his way, but then he makes the biggest catch of the night," Fitzpatrick said.
Revis INT Jets up 10-3, 3rd Quarter NE 1st and 10 NYJ 40In a base look, Darrelle Revis lines up about 7 yards off TE Rob Gronkowski. In zone and with Rontez Miles playing deep safety, Sheldon Richardson brings some edge pressure on Tom Brady. In a rare occurrence, Brady and Gronk just aren't on the same page. Revis, who now has five interceptions and eight takeaways in 2015, simply watched Brady and came up with an easy one. Three great players there and this time Revis comes away with the rock. | https://www.newyorkjets.com/news/film-review-trio-of-ot-beauties-16618818 | 2024-01-01T04:38:57Z |
FRANKFURT, Germany (AP) — Firefighters and volunteers worked to reinforce dikes against rising floodwaters in northern and eastern Germany as heavy rains falling on already soaked ground pushed rivers and streams over their banks and forced several towns to evacuate residents.
The city of Braunschweig in Lower Saxony deployed an artificial dike — a long tube filled with water from the rising river — to protect its downtown area, while several hundred residents of Windehausen in the Thuringia region were told to leave their homes as the town lost power, the dpa news agency reported.
Hundreds of volunteers joined firefighters to pack sandbags atop weakened flood-control berms in Uplengen, near Bremen in northern Germany.
Several flood plains were also underwater Tuesday in the eastern Netherlands. Rivers surged, causing localized flooding, and some temporary dikes were being built with large sandbags. The various branches of the Rhine that flow through the Netherlands are expected to peak on Thursday.
Prime Minister Mark Rutte posted on X that “the high water causes problems in parts of the country. We are closely monitoring the situation and taking measures where necessary. I wish everyone in the Netherlands who is dealing with the unpleasant consequences of the heavy rainfall a lot of strength.”
Heavy rains have also swollen rivers in eastern Belgium in recent days, where authorities have issued warnings for the Our River, which marks the border with Germany, and its tributaries.

Death toll from Brazil dam disaster reaches 99
The dam ruptured on Friday, sending a wave of iron ore waste and mud down the hill, destroying everything in its path, including residential areas, at least two small hotels and a large administrative area of mining giant Vale, owner of the mining complex where the dam was located.
No survivors were found on Wednesday, but rescue workers were able to retrieve the bodies of several victims who were at the Vale refectory below the dam when it collapsed. The refectory area was reportedly full of employees at that time, so more bodies of victims are expected to be found here.
Out of the 99 bodies retrieved, 57 have already been identified. Another 259 people are still missing, and though rescue teams have not called off searches for survivors, the possibility of finding people alive is widely regarded as very remote. No survivors have been found since Saturday.
So far, the muddy waste has traveled almost 100 km down the Paraopeba River. Vale started on Wednesday to install equipment in the river, trying to contain the material and prevent it from reaching the Sao Francisco River, where the Paraopeba disembogues into.
The Sao Francisco River is the longest river that runs in entire Brazil, flowing through five states.
According to Vale's Chief Executive Fabio Schvartsman, the company would spend 5 billion reals (about 1.36 billion U.S. dollars) in the coming years decommissioning similar dams and cut 10 percent of its output.
The company has also promised to pay 100,000 reals (about 27,000 U.S. dollars) as compensation to each victim's family. | https://en.inform.kz/amp/death-toll-from-brazil-dam-disaster-reaches-99_a3493609/ | 2024-01-01T04:39:03Z |
TOKYO (AP) — Daihatsu, a unit of Japanese automaker Toyota Motor Corp., has shut down production lines at all its four factories in Japan while transport ministry officials investigate improper tests for safety certifications.
The shutdown as of Tuesday comes a week after Daihatsu Motor Co. announced it was suspending all vehicle shipments in and outside Japan after finding improper testing involving 64 models. That led transport ministry officials to launch a deeper probe into problems that apparently persisted for decades.
The stoppage is expected to affect thousands of auto parts makers and their employees in a potential blow to local economies.
The safety test irregularities earlier this year triggered an independent panel investigation, which found widespread and systematic problems at Daihatsu. It is the latest of safety or other violations found at at least five of Japan’s major automakers in recent years.
So far, there have been no reports of accidents or deaths due to the falsified tests.
Daihatsu, maker of Hijet trucks and vans and Mira hatchbacks, said it started shutting down some lines Monday and production stopped at all four plants in Shiga, Kyoto and Oita prefectures as well as at its headquarters in Osaka on Tuesday.
The company declined to say when production will resume, while media reports said lines will be suspended at least through January.
Daihatsu is Toyota’s unit specializing in small cars and trucks that are popular in Japan. The company assembled some 870,000 vehicles at the four plants in fiscal 2022.
According to market research company Teikoku Databank, Daihatsu factories have supply chains including 8,136 companies across Japan, with sales totaling 2.2 trillion sales ($15.53 billion).
“The longer the shipment suspension, the greater the concern about its impact on company earnings, employment and the local economy,” it said in a report.
The problems were found in 64 models and three vehicle engines, including 22 models and an engine sold by Toyota. The problems also affected some models of Mazda Motor Corp. and Subaru Corp. sold in Japan, and Toyota and Daihatsu models sold abroad.
Daihatsu’s probe found 174 new cases of irregularities in safety tests and other procedures in 25 test categories, on top of problems reported earlier.
The issue emerged in April when Daihatsu reported improper testing on door linings. Problems in side collision testing surfaced in May, officials said. The also found data falsifications and use of unauthorized testing procedures.
Speaking to reporters last week, Daihatsu President Soichiro Okudaira acknowledged the cheating on safety testing and procedures, saying it was tantamount to neglect of safety certificates. He attributed the problems to pressure on workers to meet ambitious demands for tight development deadlines.

Tennis-New mother Osaka makes winning return in Brisbane
Twice Melbourne Park champion Osaka dropped serve for a second time late in the next set to squander her advantage but continued her clean ball-striking in the fiercely contested tiebreak to secure the victory. Up next for Osaka is a clash with former world number one Karolina Pliskova, who received a bye into the second round.
- Country:
- Australia
Four-time Grand Slam champion Naomi Osaka looked solid on her return to elite tennis after 15 months out as she beat Germany's Tamara Korpatsch 6-3 7-6(9) in the first round of the Brisbane International on Monday. The 26-year-old from Japan last competed on tour at the Pan Pacific Open in Tokyo in September 2022 and had her first child, daughter Shai, in July before stepping up her preparations for the Jan. 14-28 Australian Open.
Osaka displayed no signs of rust to break Korpatsch to love in her first game back and the former world number one turned up the heat again towards the end of the opening set to close it out in 38 minutes with a sizzling forehand winner. Twice Melbourne Park champion Osaka dropped serve for a second time late in the next set to squander her advantage but continued her clean ball-striking in the fiercely contested tiebreak to secure the victory.
Up next for Osaka is a clash with former world number one Karolina Pliskova, who received a bye into the second round.

Death toll from Brazilian dam collapse hits 142, with 194 missing
Out of the 142 bodies retrieved, 122 have been identified. A total of 194 people, among whom are residents of the destroyed neighborhoods and employees of Vale, the dam's owner, remain missing, Xinhua reports.
Rescue teams are working in several areas to find and retrieve more bodies. Some 400 workers are involved in the rescue efforts: half are Minas Gerais state firefighters, while the other half comprised National Public Security Force officers, firefighters from other states and volunteers.
Earlier in the day, five engineers and managers who had been arrested for being responsible for the dam collapse were granted habeas corpus by Brazil's Superior Court of Justice and were released. The five professionals, three of them Vale workers and two outsourced workers, either attested to the safety of the dam or were responsible for obtaining permits.
The mining waste which escaped from the dam continues to flow down the Paraopeba River, and experts said the river is virtually dead, much like what happened to the Doce River when a similar incident happened in Mariana, also in Minas Gerais state, in late 2015.
Several towns located by the river are facing difficulties given the impossibility of using the river as their source of water, and some have declared a state of emergency or calamity.
In addition, a study published Tuesday by the Oswaldo Cruz Foundation, a Brazilian public security and epidemiology think tank, estimated that the towns in the vicinity of the Paraopeba River will most likely face outbreaks of mosquito-transmitted diseases such as yellow fever or dengue. A similar situation occurred in the Mariana incident. | https://en.inform.kz/amp/death-toll-from-brazilian-dam-collapse-hits-142-with-194-missing_a3495366/ | 2024-01-01T04:39:09Z |

Several patients at the Asante Rogue Regional Medical Center died after a nurse allegedly injected them with tap water instead of their proper medication.
According to NBC5 News, police were investigating at least one patient's death at the medical center, and sources told them there were even more who died as a result of infections caused by faulty injections. Sources stated a nurse had injected patients with tap water to cover up the hospital's misuse of pain medication, including fentanyl.
The Medical Center's intensive care unit reported that up to nine or ten people caught infections and later died. The tap water that was used in the injections was reportedly not sterile and led to multiple infections of pseudomonas, which can be very dangerous to those with weak immune systems.
"It could cause sepsis, pneumonia, it could infect all the organs, so it could be a very severe infection," said Dr. Robin Miller. The Asante Rogue Medical Center released a statement saying, "We were distressed to learn of this issue. We reported it to law enforcement and are working closely with them."
As of press time, no one was arrested or charged, and Medford Police provided no more details. They only confirmed there's an open investigation at the medical center. | https://www.complex.com/life/a/markelibert/patients-dead-nurse-inject-tap-water | 2024-01-01T04:39:12Z |
Domantas Sabonis was all over the glass in the Kings' 123-92 thumping of the Memphis Grizzlies on Sunday at FedExForum.
Sacramento's big man scored 13 points while grabbing 21 rebounds and dishing out 12 assists for his sixth triple-double in December.
Sabonis also flirted with Chris Webber's Sacramento-era record of 25 rebounds in a game.

"It's a team effort," Sabonis said postgame of his performance on the glass. "I feel like we did a good job contesting their shots and I just got to fight down there with [Bismack] Biyombo, really strong guy and today was my night.
"We just kept switching the coverage, we were blitzing their main guys. That's all coach talked about, points in the paint that's where we've been struggling all year. To do that was big for us tonight."
The Kings outrebounded the Grizzlies 59-34 and outscored Memphis 58-32 in the paint.
NBA
De'Aaron Fox scored 24 points with four rebounds and four assists, but it was sixth-man Malik Monk's 27 points off the bench that helped the Kings build a significant lead.
Monk, who was born 71 miles northwest in Jonesboro, Arkansas, had family and friends in attendance at FedExForum on Sunday and was happy to put on a show for his loved ones.
"I haven't played in front of a lot of these guys in a minute and I was able to put on a show for them," Monk told Kyle Draper and Matt Barnes on "Kings Postgame Live." "Luckily the shots were going in."
After a frustrating loss to the Portland Trail Blazers on Tuesday, Sacramento capped off a 2-1 road trip with wins over the Atlanta Hawks on Friday and the Grizzlies on Sunday.
The Kings will return home to face off against the Charlotte Hornets on Tuesday at Golden 1 Center.

Singler and an 11-year-old girl were found with injuries and taken to a local hospital. All three children are Singler’s children.
As the investigation continued, a warrant for Singler’s arrest was issued on December 26. The arrest warrant included charges of murder in the first degree, child abuse, and assault.
A $10,000,000 bond was set by the court.

Video Game Sequels Better Than The Original
Video game franchises don't always get it right on the first attempt. At times, a sequel can be much better, learning from the mistakes of the original. It could be the third or fourth game, but great franchises find what works best.
1. Assassin's Creed II
The original Assassin's Creed does a lot right, but some gamers had issues with it. The development team at Ubisoft listened and returned with a better adventure in Assassin's Creed II. This sequel gets frequently referenced when someone discusses the leap a sequel makes from its predecessor. It starts the story of Ezio Auditore da Firenze and the Italian Renaissance arc of the Assassin's Creed franchise.
2. Red Dead Redemption 2
The sequel to Red Dead Redemption achieves something few studios can. This sequel arrived in stores in 2018 and five years later, no one has matched what Rockstar accomplished with this western tale. Rockstar's open world in this game features an incredibly immersive experience full of life and drama. The development team created a heart-wrenching story that gamers still talk about today. While not as big or famous as Grand Theft Auto V, Red Dead Redemption 2 shines as an example of what a sequel can achieve.
3. Half-Life 2
The original Half-Life took the industry by storm, helping to popularize the first-person shooter genre. Valve had a tall task on its hands following that up but succeeded in doing so. When Half-Life 2 finally arrived, it showcased state-of-the-art tech and a story gamers enjoyed. Unfortunately, no one knows how the story ends since Valve never released the final episode. With the old joke that Valve doesn't know how to count to three, it becomes doubtful as the years go by that gamers will ever see Half-Life 3 or get any closure on the story.
4. Halo 2
The original Halo carried the Xbox on its back. If Halo had not been around, Xbox might not be around as we know it today. Master Chief helped show how a first-person shooter could work on consoles, and Halo 2 continued in that regard. Although Halo 2 ends rather abruptly, the story showcasing two characters from opposite sides intrigued fans all over. Halo's legendary multiplayer suite also took off here as fans became enamored with the whole universe.
5. Super Mario Bros. 3
Believed to be one of the best platformers ever designed, Super Mario Bros. 3 introduced a world map to the franchise. The game no longer featured a linear experience. It introduced some power-ups to the franchise that would become iconic as the years passed. Nintendo even had a movie, The Wizard, in theaters that showed off Super Mario Bros. 3 to moviegoers to help generate excitement for the game.
6. The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past
The Legend of Zelda franchise has a lot of iconic games. Link's adventure on the Super Nintendo tops the list as Nintendo showed what they can do in an isometric adventure. The storyline also featured some new ideas for the time, including the light and dark world and how everything isn't always as it seems. The dungeons in this game have become popular with the fanbase to the point where many people use randomizers these days to go through the game. These randomizers provide fresh challenges for a game released in the early 90s.
7. Star Wars Battlefront II
Star Wars: Battlefront II, released in 2005 and developed by Pandemic Studios, hits the high water mark for many people in terms of shooters based on the Star Wars universe. It features new characters, game mechanics, missions, vehicles, and more. The development team split the game into two eras, dealing with the Clone Wars and the Galactic Civil War. Star Wars: Battlefront II developed a sizable fan base until the game's servers had to shut down.
8. Mass Effect 2
Originally an Xbox 360 exclusive, Mass Effect 2 changed quite a bit to improve over the original. For starters, while it still featured RPG mechanics, the game went in a more action-oriented direction. Of course, it brings over your save file from the first game, along with your decisions. One of the hallmarks of the Mass Effect franchise includes the choices made in the previous game. If a character dies during your playthrough of the original Mass Effect, that character will not appear in Mass Effect 2. Because consequences matter, players enjoyed the different playthroughs that resulted from those decisions. Mass Effect 2 does have a way where all of your crew members can survive, but one wrong move or decision and can quickly change.
9. Borderlands 2
Borderlands 2 takes place five years after the original. This sequel features the debut of Handsome Jack, a villain that shows up in some future titles as well. Borderlands 2 features a procedurally generated loot system, one of the main features of the franchise. With this system, the game generates almost infinite weapons for players. Borderlands 2 features an open world where players decide how the action unfolds, for the most part.
10. Mega Man 2
Believed to be the best Mega Man ever made, this sequel arrived on the Nintendo Entertainment System in 1989 (with a Japanese release in 1988). Mega Man 2 features the return of Dr. Wily and allows the player to pick which missions to complete first. Mega Man 2 features eight stages to go through before getting to the main boss. The platforming sections will definitely be a challenge, especially with a game that requires this level of precision.
11. Uncharted 2: Among Thieves
The original Uncharted game kicked off the franchise, but Uncharted 2: Among Thieves kicked everything into high gear. Naughty Dog hit their stride with Uncharted 2, a game fans still remember fondly 14 years after its release. The game starts out quickly with Nathan dangling from a crashed train. It continues the tale that started in the first game while bringing in some new characters that would become iconic in the Uncharted universe. There have been four mainline Uncharted games and Uncharted 2 ranks at the top of the list.
12. Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest
This sequel features Diddy Kong and Dixie Kong. Donkey Kong has disappeared, and now the kids must rescue him. This 2D side-scrolling adventure has 52 levels over eight worlds to explore. King K. Rool has returned and sends his army of villains to try and prevent Donkey Kong's rescue. Both characters have different advantages, with Diddy being more agile and overall faster. At the same time, Dixie can jump higher and use her hair to glide.
13. Diablo II
An action role-playing hack-and-slash game, Blizzard struck gold with the Diablo franchise. Featuring dark fantasy and horror themes, Diablo II quickly found an audience among PC gamers. The story of Diablo II takes place after the events of the original. Diablo has returned, and players must stop the destruction unleashed in his wake. The base game features four acts to go through, with a fifth act as an expansion.
14. Super Metroid
Widely believed to be the best Metroid game ever, Super Metroid helped inspire the widely used term “Metroidvania.” In this adventure, Samus travels to Zebes to recover an infant Metroid creature. Super Metroid focuses on exploration and the use of power-ups found throughout the game. Certain areas will be inaccessible at first until Samus gets the proper item. Once that happens, more of the game opens up and spills its secrets to the player.
15. Mortal Kombat 2
Mortal Kombat 2 made a big splash in the industry when it arrived in arcades. In fact, the creation of the Entertainment Software Ratings Board (ESRB) happened because of the level of violence Mortal Kombat 2 brought to the table. The Fatalities and overall violence in the game shocked a lot of people. Only a few people played the original game. Still, Mortal Kombat 2 captured the hearts and minds of gamers everywhere and launched what has become an iconic franchise.
16. Street Fighter 2
Like Mortal Kombat 2, Street Fighter 2 became the introduction to the franchise for many. The original Steet Fighter didn't appear in many arcades, so most people didn't play it. Street Fighter 2 introduces iconic characters such as Ryu, Ken, Chun Li, Blanka, Guile, and more. Capcom released several different iterations of Street Fighter 2. Still, the original one made the most impact on the fighting game genre and the industry itself.
17. Grand Theft Auto III
One of the most influential games of all time, Rockstar hit pay dirt with the release of Grand Theft Auto III. Seen as the godfather of modern open-world games, Grand Theft Auto III ignited a revolution. It might be hard to imagine today, but being able to explore an open world and have the degree of freedom that Rockstar included in the game changed game development forever. Rockstar has since improved on the formula, but Grand Theft Auto III has become the standard bearer and the launching point for many aspiring franchises hoping to have a similar open-world concept.
18. Titanfall 2
As the name suggests, Respawn released Titanfall 2 as the follow-up to the original. Titanfall 2 was released on multiple platforms, while the original Titanfall had console exclusivity on Xbox One. The first Titanfall only featured multiplayer, but the development team listened and incorporated a story for the sequel. The developers at Respawn knocked it out of the park with the Titanfall 2 campaign mode. However, questionable release timing made it so Respawn's sequel didn't get the support it deserved.
19. The Sims 4
Completely different than the other games on this list, The Sims 4 tackles social dynamics and everyday life. Players can create and dress characters called Sims and must care for them daily. Players can build and furnish homes, watch as their Sim pursues a career, try to start a family with another Sim, or go down one of many other potential paths in the game.
20. Far Cry 3
For many fans, the Far Cry franchise started hitting its stride with Far Cry 3. Set on the fictional Rook Islands, Far Cry 3 features one of the most memorable villains ever, Vaas. Vaas showcases himself as a psychotic madman running around the island, constantly talking about the definition of insanity.
21. Horizon: Forbidden West
Horizon: Zero Dawn introduced a brand new universe to PlayStation fans. Guerrilla Games surprised many people, making first-person shooters in the past, not third-person open-world titles. When Horizon: Forbidden West arrived, fans saw a more refined version of the Horizon formula. Aloy continues her journey heading west while trying to figure out how she can help everyone. Running through the wilderness with the bow drawn, Horizon: Forbidden West has great combat that keeps players on their toes battling robotic animals determined to erase their existence.
22. Batman: Arkham City
The Arkham trilogy has captured a lot of attention and serves as inspiration for many other games. The favorite for most people ended up being the second game of the trilogy, Batman: Arkham City. Batman's job revolves around protecting Arkham City from the usual assortment of criminals, from The Penguin to Mr. Freeze and more. Open-world gameplay allowed fans to glide around the city and help out citizens as Batman tried to eliminate the criminal threat.
23. Saints Row: The Third
Many Grand Theft Auto clones exist, but Saints Row sits at the top of that list. The wacky and over-the-top gameplay of Saints Row: The Third competes with the slightly more serious (but still wacky) tone of the Grand Theft Auto series. The game's story revolves around the Saints gaining power and popularity in their city. The Saints even have their own energy drink. The Saints have become a brand that others aspire to be like, for better or worse. It also has this incredible mission where your character jumps out of a helicopter, parachuting to a penthouse to crash a party while Kanye West's “Power” blasts in the background.
24. Watch Dogs 2
Set in Ubisoft's North American backyard, Watch Dogs 2 lets players explore the Bay Area. The Watch Dogs franchise has become Ubisoft's attempt at a Grand Theft Auto clone. During the game's development, Ubisoft consulted with real hackers to ensure the story made sense and could be as authentic as possible. Watch Dogs 2 features third-person gameplay in an open-world environment. The missions in the game are available in almost any order, meaning the player determines how the mission gets accomplished. Go in guns blazing or achieve your goal without anyone detecting your presence. Each approach has pros and cons, leaving it up to the player to decide which route works the best.
25. Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
Super Smash Bros. features characters from many different franchises duking it out on a battlefield. Fights not possible before can now occur, such as Mario vs. Pac-Man or Yoshi vs. Sora. Super Smash Bros. Ultimate has become the definitive game in the franchise, featuring the largest roster. Weighing in at 89 fighters, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate indeed has become the ultimate fighting game for gamers. | https://wealthofgeeks.com/video-game-sequels-better-than-the-original-2/ | 2024-01-01T04:39:12Z |
Some Nutramigen infant formula recalled due to possible bacteria contamination
(CNN) - Some powdered baby formula is being pulled from the shelves due to contamination issues.
On Sunday, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration warned consumers of possible bacterial contamination in Reckitt/Mead Johnson’s Nutramigen Hypoallergenic Infant Formula Powder products.

Will Calm Return to CCC Politics in 2024?
By DR. MASIMBA MAVAZA
This year, the opposition has experienced its most disastrous period ever since its formation. The ZANU PF party has built up a lead in the polls while ironically gaining power from the top ranks of the opposition. In October, a rare calm descended on Zimbabwean politics as news emerged from Bulawayo of a great cyclone named Cyclone Tshabangu sweeping through opposition politics, taking no prisoners. This moment of stillness came in a year of wild upheaval, bringing CHAMISA back to reality. Meanwhile, ZANU PF began and ended 2023 by consistently emphasizing the need to reduce opposition control of urban voters. In January, President Mnangagwa outlined his party’s priorities for 2023, one of which was winning the August elections. His task was made easier when the main opposition confused itself by implementing a strategy that brought more confusion than clarity.
After a prolonged legal battle, Chamisa entered the August 2023 elections with an ambiguous strategy. This ambiguity has long plagued CCC, leading to political and economic turmoil. CCC supporters have lost the energy and enthusiasm that once fueled their creativity, overwhelmed by recent events that have shaken the foundation of the opposition movement.
Referred to as the Tshabangu fiasco, these events rocked the Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC). The CCC emerged as a formidable force in the 2023 harmonized elections, challenging the ruling party Zanu PF and its leader, President Emmerson Mnangagwa. The CCC garnered 48% of the presidential vote, while Zanu PF secured 50.8%, a narrow and disputed victory. The CCC also narrowly won enough seats in the National Assembly to prevent a Zanu PF majority, becoming the largest opposition bloc in Zimbabwe’s history. However, as fate would have it, Tshabangu deepened the divisions that emerged after the elections.
Chamisa’s sidelining of senior CCC members marked the culmination of a period of extreme turbulence. His dictatorship, described as Strategic Ambiguity, alienated his allies, causing a significant shift in the CCC’s political landscape and setting Chamisa up for failure. “It’s probably going to be the year when the opposition lost the chance of winning. It’s hard to see how they can win a majority next time when they use confusion to create order,” it is said.
Chamisa hopes to benefit from what his party members call a confused confusion, but this incompetent political management has given ZANU PF a significant majority margin. The events within the CCC show the damage they have suffered over the past year, giving ZANU PF a free lead. This suggests that Chamisa, grappling with a wave of recalls, has not regained much of the ground lost, and recovery from such a loss seems impossible.
For CCC, a key change in 2023 was the voters’ perception of Chamisa’s leadership, the disastrous handling of the party, and the endless infighting, leading to the conclusion that the game was up for the opposition. The situation on the ground indicates the public expects a ZANU PF government for a long time, a perception that negatively impacts CCC.
According to political analysts, the Tshabangu trauma also marked a high point for the populist surge that manifested in the first few months of Chamisa’s rise. We can safely say that 2023 was the year of reality and material facts, problematic for populists who thrive on confusion. The current CCC is led by leaders who lack vision and a clear plan.
Chamisa and former student activists fit into a similar mold, offering voters unflashy stability, which is ambiguous. Voters have likely reached the end of the idea that governance can be achieved by merely changing the party’s prime minister every few months.
2023 brought an end to the populist idea of carelessly proposing ideas without considering their financial implications. Tshabangu has become a “still point in the turning world of opposition politics.” In this time of Cyclone Tshabangu, ZANU PF will be the ultimate beneficiary of this trend, and Zimbabweans can sense a change in the direction of the political wind.
2023 was the year that the relationship between the opposition and itself changed dramatically. Chamisa is leading the opposition into a more erratic phase of political administration. Tshabangu’s impact runs deep in opposition politics. The majority of people now accept, regardless of how they voted, that CCC would not deliver a land of milk and honey.
There came a moment when people started admitting that Chamisa was a disaster for Zimbabwean politics. ZANU PF’s victory in the December by-elections suggests a growing number of people regret voting for CCC in the August general elections.
Zimbabweans now believe that Chamisa’s ousting from CCC will mark a watershed moment, allowing other opposition leaders to start repairing the damage and forge a new entity.
Zimbabweans now believe that Chamisa’s ousting from CCC will mark a watershed moment, allowing other opposition leaders to start repairing the damage and forge a new partnership in a less toxic atmosphere. Zimbabwean politics can now be discussed without reference to Chamisa. He has moved on, and so have we.
Cyclone Tshabangu also raised a profound question for CCC: what is CCC for? CCC tried its best over a number of years to blame ZANU PF for their predicament. They even attempted to attribute Tshabangu to ZANU PF, but his umbilical cord was stubbornly attached to CCC. In fact, 2023 proved beyond any doubt that there are no quick fixes to the opposition’s problems and that the public is fed up with politicians shifting the blame. Chamisa and CCC will now have to live with that uncomfortable legacy.
The support for Chamisa is now dwindling, with even former allies like Biti and Ncube turning against him, indicating that he is not the right candidate for the job. Effectively, we are entering 2024 without a strong opposition and without independent legislators. | https://www.zimeye.net/2024/01/01/dr-mavaza-says-ccc-a-chaotic-mess-in-2023-full-text/ | 2024-01-01T04:39:12Z |
Tennis-New mother Osaka makes winning return in Brisbane
So it feels really surreal sometimes to be playing on these courts." Up next for Osaka is a clash with former world number one Karolina Pliskova, who received a bye into the second round.
Four-time Grand Slam champion Naomi Osaka looked solid on her return to elite tennis after 15 months out as she beat Germany's Tamara Korpatsch 6-3 7-6(9) in the first round of the Brisbane International on Monday.
The 26-year-old from Japan last competed on tour at the Pan Pacific Open in Tokyo in September 2022 and had her first child, daughter Shai, in July before stepping up her preparations for the Jan. 14-28 Australian Open. Osaka displayed no signs of rust to break Korpatsch to love in her first game back and the former world number one turned up the heat again towards the end of the opening set to close it out in 38 minutes with a sizzling forehand winner.
Twice Melbourne Park champion Osaka dropped serve for a second time late in the next set to squander her advantage but continued her clean ball-striking in the fiercely contested tiebreak to secure the victory. "I was super nervous but I was really excited to be out here. It feels really good to be back," Osaka said after taking pictures with fans courtside.
"I feel like the last couple of years that I played before I had my daughter I didn't return as much love as I was given, so I really feel like that's what I want to do in this chapter. "I just really appreciate people coming out and cheering for me, because I feel there was a time that I was just a little kid trying to watch my role models play. So it feels really surreal sometimes to be playing on these courts."
Up next for Osaka is a clash with former world number one Karolina Pliskova, who received a bye into the second round.

Death toll in Brazil mine disaster rises to 110
21:29, 01 February 2019
SAO PAOLO. KAZINFORM - The number of confirmed fatalities following last week's failure of a mine tailings dam in the southeastern Brazilian town of Brumadinho reached 110 on Thursday, the Minas Gerais state fire department said, EFE reports.
Seven days after the catastrophe, the search operation is entering "a somewhat more difficult phase," the department spokesman, Lt. Pedro Aihara, told a press conference. | https://en.inform.kz/amp/death-toll-in-brazil-mine-disaster-rises-to-110_a3494171/ | 2024-01-01T04:39:16Z |
Yung Miami is speaking out on “hating ass hoes” one last time before she chooses positivity in 2024.
The City Girls member fired off in a series of tweets on X (formerly known as Twitter) to get a few things off her chest.
“I really wanna be positive in 2024. Fuck yall hating ass hoes fr!,” she wrote. “Oh and yall old hating ass pussy n***as too!!!!!”
However, other tweets that followed raised some eyebrows. Without naming any names, the rapper seemed to aim her rant towards a particular person — possibly Joe Budden.
Yung Miami wrote, “You know you that bitch when N***AS praying on your downfall. I expect that from bitches cause that's what bitches do, but yall niggas LOL YALL SOME PUSSY N***AS!!!! Pussyyyyyyyyyyy!!! Like bitch ass n***as!”
She continued, “I got tender dick n***as dick in bunch bout a podcast & talking down on a bitch that's 29!! ((29)) AHHHHHHHHHHHH! Put on your seatbelt bitch!!”
“N***as not outside in the field no more they online chatting like a bitch 😭😭😭 ugh I hate this new era of men! OMGGGG what happen to n***as that don't talk no more?!”
The rapper also recently announced she was leaving the internet due to its toxicity.
Yung Miami, legally known as Caresha Brownlee, might be referring to comments Budden made on an episode of the Need to Know Podcast published last week. The outspoken personality and his co-hosts discussed Complex’s Hip-Hop Media Power Ranking, where Budden happens to occupy the top spot.
On the other hand, Caresha ranked number seven for her Revolt-hosted podcast, Caresha Please. The podcast debuted last June, but as of this writing only has 11 episodes with the last episode being recorded in September. Despite its light offerings, the podcast managed to win two BET Hip Hop Awards in 2022 and 2023.
Caresha’s on-and-off boyfriend, Sean “Diddy” Combs, previously served as a chairman for Revolt until he temporarily stepped down in light of sexual assault accusations made against him. It’s currently unclear if Diddy’s resignation from his post at the media company will prevent future episodes of Caresha Please from being recorded.
“She might not see another list in her life,” said Budden about Yung Miami. “I was just thinking about that on the way here because I love her show so much.”
Budden then quipped that Caresha Please is necessary for “that,” as he made a shoo-ing hand gesture. It probably didn’t help that he started to sing Queen’s “Another One Bites the Dust.”
“I love when a two-time award winner— I love when they just… it’s over now,” added Budden. “She won the award two years in a row. Now, I don’t care about that stuff. However, you know when there’s a glitch in the matrix.”
Budden briefly reprised another excerpt of “Another One Bites the Dust” before adding, “Get the fuck outta here.”
Budden did not appear to respond to Yung Miami’s comments at publishing time. | https://www.complex.com/music/a/alex-ocho/yung-miami-joe-budden-podcast-pray-downfall | 2024-01-01T04:39:18Z |

Sarr scores but then goes off with injury in Tottenham's 3-1 win over Bournemouth in Premier League
Pape Sarr opened the scoring for Tottenham in a 3-1 win over Bournemouth in the Premier League before going off with an injury that could put his African Cup of Nations participation in doubt. Pape felt his hamstring and hes emotional because he wants to go away with his national team, Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou said.
- Country:
- United Kingdom
Pape Sarr opened the scoring for Tottenham in a 3-1 win over Bournemouth in the Premier League before going off with an injury that could put his African Cup of Nations participation in doubt. Son Heung-min doubled the lead with his 12th league goal of the season as Spurs rebounded from a 4-2 loss at Brighton on Thursday to move within one point of fourth-place Arsenal. Sarr gave the hosts the lead in the ninth minute by rifling a shot into the bottom corner from 18 yards. But the Senegal international left the field in tears with an injury in the 32nd, just two weeks before the start of the African Cup. "Pape felt his hamstring and he's emotional because he wants to go away with his national team," Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou said. "Disappointing for him but I am hoping it is not too serious and he can still go away and contribute to his country.'' Tottenham then had to wait until the 71st minute for a second goal.
Giovani Lo Celso was the architect with a superb throughball with the outside of his boot to set up Son, who found the bottom corner.
Richarlison then made the points safe 10 minutes from time when he swept home Brennan Johnson's cross in a carbon copy of his goal against Everton.
Substitute Alex Scott pulled one back for Bournemouth in the 84th minute after a cutback by Marcus Tavernier.
Postecoglou also received a boost before the game as Rodrigo Bentancur was fit enough to start, nearly a month ahead of schedule after an injury.
However, there was a heated exchange between the Tottenham manager and some of the Bournemouth backroom staff near the end of the game when young Tottenham substitute Alejo Veliz suffered a suspected knee injury, and he was repeatedly told by Postecoglou and his staff to stay down to receive treatment.
It led to Postecoglou exchanging words with Bournemouth first-team coach Shaun Cooper in stoppage time and angrily pointing his finger before being pulled away from a scuffle. "We were just wishing each other happy new year,'' Postecoglou joked when asked about the incident.

Cardi B has vowed to leave bad energy behind in 2023.
On Friday, the rapper hopped on Twitter to fire back at fans who questioned her relationship status with estranged husband Offset. Earlier this month, Cardi confirmed that her and Offset were calling it quits after rumors circulated that he cheated on her.
Cardi's outburst stemmed from one fan asking her why she hasn't dropped a new album. In response, the Invasion of Privacy rapper wrote, "This took 5 seconds to do while I'm getting my toes done... You took 20 minutes of your day to create a email , do a twitter to become a BARDI FAN PAGE… By the way I know wat you finna do wit your avi… NO LIFE ACTIVITY."
Meanwhile, after another follower suggested Cardi enter therapy to control her emotions, she replied, "I need therapy but you a whole FAN PAGE of someone that needs therapy?... LOSER."
When another user brought up her kids, Cardi responded: "They fed, bathed and rich …..NEXT."
Cardi ended her Twitter spree by admitting she was feeling a "lil toxic," before she promised to leave the bad energy behind as we enter 2024.
“I must be a lil toxic cuz I enjoyed cursing ya out today… but we not taking that into 2024. Now have a good day. No make it a bad day!" she wrote. | https://www.complex.com/music/a/brad-callas/cardi-b-no-toxic-energy-2024 | 2024-01-01T04:39:24Z |

Some Nutramigen infant formula recalled due to possible bacteria contamination
(CNN) - Some powdered baby formula is being pulled from the shelves due to contamination issues.
On Sunday, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration warned consumers of possible bacterial contamination in Reckitt/Mead Johnson’s Nutramigen Hypoallergenic Infant Formula Powder products.
Manufacturers voluntarily recalled more than 675,000 cans of the formula.
The recall batches include ZL3FRW, ZL3FPE, ZL3FXJ, ZL3FQD, ZL3FMH, ZL3FHG with a UPC code of 300871239418 or 300871239456 and use by date of Jan. 1, 2025.
According to the FDA, the formula tested positive for Cronobacter bacteria, which can cause rare but potentially deadly infections in newborns.
The FDA says that no illnesses have been reported to date.
The company says no other Nutramigen liquid formulas or any other Reckitt nutrition products are impacted.

John Legend has become the butt of several jokes on social media after a video of him covering Nate Dogg's part on "21 Questions" while performing with 50 Cent surfaced online.
Last Thursday, Legend celebrated his 45th birthday in New York City, and 50 Cent was invited to perform at the celebration. 50 performed his hit single "21 Questions," and at some point, the singer took it upon himself to join him and cover Nate Dogg's infectious chorus.
For those in attendance, the moment was touching as Legend and 50 appeared to be having a good time on stage. However, the same couldn't be said for folks on social media who couldn't help but comment on the comedy that came from the performance.
According to several people on social media, Legend tried his best but there was no need for him to join 50 on stage as he could've just enjoyed the show like everyone else.
"John legend made it sound like a negro spiritual," one person wrote. Another said, "Why would John Legend get on stage and sing with 50 cent like that ????"
A third person wrote, "Bruh the video of John Legend and 50 cent really brings me to tears."
Before getting on stage with 50, Legend had a birthday dinner date with his wife, Chrissy Teigen, in New York City. The couple stepped out in coordinating all-black outfits to enjoy their dinner at Ralph Lauren's eatery The Polo Bar. | https://www.complex.com/music/a/markelibert/john-legend-50-cent-21-questions | 2024-01-01T04:39:30Z |
The time and date of the 49ers' Week 18 matchup against the Los Angeles Rams officially has been set.
San Francisco will face off against the playoff-bound Rams at 4:25 p.m. PST on Sunday, Jan. 7, at Levi's Stadium.
The NFL officially announced the full Week 18 schedule on Sunday night.

With the 49ers officially securing the NFC's No. 1playoff seed on Sunday after a 27-10 win over the Washington Commanders and a Philadelphia Eagles loss to the Arizona Cardinals, the Week 18 matchup with Los Angeles means a lot less than it could have.
It remains to be seen which 49ers starters will rest against the Rams, but with the first-round bye secured, most of San Francisco's starters are unlikely to play in the regular-season finale.
The Rams punched their ticket to the playoffs with a 26-25 win over the New York Giants and the Seattle Seahawks' 30-23 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday and either will be the NFC's No. 6 or 7 seed.
San Francisco 49ers
Los Angeles likely will play most, if not all of its starters against San Francisco on Sunday in an effort to improve its seeding. | https://www.nbcsportsbayarea.com/nfl/san-francisco-49ers/nfl-reveals-date-time-for-49ers-rams-week-18-matchup/1686617/ | 2024-01-01T04:39:30Z |

Fabio Carvalho is returning to Liverpool after his loan spell at Leipzig ended early.
The 21-year-old winger had joined the German side on a season-long loan but made only three starts in a total of 15 appearances in all competitions for the team so far this season. Leipzig sporting director Rouven Schroder said on the team's website that "both parties had expected more from his time here — especially Fabio in terms of his playing time." "Due to the quality and competition within our squad at his position, we are unable to guarantee this for him,'' Schroder said. "We held several discussions over the last days and in the end, decided to end his loan early." Carvalho, who has played for Portugal's Under-21 team, moved to Liverpool from Fulham in the summer of 2022 and has featured 21 times for the Reds, scoring three goals.

Surfer dies after shark bite, officials say
PAIA, Hawaii (KHNL/Gray News) - A 39-year-old surfer died Saturday after suffering a shark bite at Maui’s Paia Bay, the Department of Land and Natural Resources confirmed.
Details on the injuries of Jason Carter oh Haiku were not released.
Maui Fire Department officials say the incident happened about 11 a.m.
A Department of Land and Natural Resources spokesman confirmed about 5:30 p.m. that Carter had died.
Officials said water conditions at the time were “mixed” because of high surf conditions.
The County of Maui posted on its official Instagram that Baldwin Beach Park and Lower Paia Park were closed due to the shark incident.
First responders were patrolling the area on shore and on jet skis, according to Maui Fire Department. Department of Land and Natural Resources officials said shark warning signs are up one mile on either side of the incident site.
The incident is seventh shark encounter in Hawaii waters this year and the first resulting in fatal injuries, according to the agency’s shark incident database.

Jets prospect McGroarty savouring 2nd world juniors appearance with U.S. team
University of Michigan forward suffered fractured rib, punctured lung in mid-November
Rutger McGroarty was desperate to play for his country.
The Winnipeg Jets prospect also didn't want to have a tube inserted into his chest to make it happen.
McGroarty was injured after getting checked awkwardly into the boards while playing for the University of Michigan in mid-November. The winger had to be stretchered off the ice with a fractured rib and punctured lung.
His chances of suiting up for the United States a second time at the world junior hockey championship appeared grim.
"[The doctors] were saying a bunch of stuff: 'It could take two months or it could take a week ... we don't know,"' McGroarty recalled of his four days in hospital. "And then they wanted to shove a tube in my chest to heal it. I'm like, 'I'm not putting a tube in my chest, guys. I'm gonna let this heal naturally.'
"I trusted the process."
After another week of bed rest at home, that belief paid off.
"Next thing you know, they do some tests and they're like, 'Oh, the lung's healed,"' he said. "Perfect. Let's go."
After capturing bronze at the 2023 tournament in Halifax, the 19-year-old U.S. captain is back hoping for a medal upgrade in Sweden.
McGroarty and his teammates finished first in Group B at the annual under-20 showcase and will play Latvia in Tuesday's quarter-finals.
No surprise here. Rutger McGroarty captures player of the game! 🫡 <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/WorldJuniors?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#WorldJuniors</a> <a href="https://t.co/3Y75rRt2Ey">pic.twitter.com/3Y75rRt2Ey</a>

Selected with the 14th pick at the 2022 NHL draft by Winnipeg, the Lincoln, Neb., product had two assists through three games before finally finding back of the net three times for a hat trick in Sunday's final preliminary round contest, a 10-2 dismantling of Slovakia.
Head coach David Carle said that while the six-foot, 201-pound McGroarty is keen to drag his group into the fight on the ice, he also has significant value in the locker room and away from the rink.
"Great at bringing people together," Carle said. "We've got a lot of guys who know each other, but different walks of life, different teams. You need someone who can connect the dots. He does that at a really high level."
Carle, whose playing career was cut short by a medical condition when he was around the same age as McGroarty, reached out soon after hearing about the injury.
"Spoke to him, texted him," he said. "Initially your heart breaks for the kid to potentially lose that [world junior] opportunity. The fact that he's here, I'm just really happy for him."
McGroarty didn't take the usual route to the Swedish city of Gothenburg after spending a chunk of his youth in Nebraska.
His dad, Jim, was head coach and general manager of the USHL's Lincoln Stars. The Mississauga, Ont., native made sure his son had every opportunity to succeed in the sport.
"I was on the ice more than probably every other little kid across the world," the younger McGroarty said with a grin following a recent practice. "I was skating all day, every day. My dad had the keys to the rink.
"Always there buzzing around."
The family eventually moved onto Michigan before he joined the U.S. National Team Development Program alongside players from more traditional hockey locales.
"Once my story started coming out, people were like, 'He's from Nebraska? What the heck's going on?"' said McGroarty, whose mom, Cindy, is also from the state. "But I love my story, and I love where I came from."
The 19-year-old, who could one day become the fourth player from the Cornhusker State to make the NHL, had a strong start to his NCAA season with 12 goals and 18 points in 13 games before getting hurt.
McGroarty isn't satisfied with those numbers.
"A lot of room for improvement," he said. "Need to dominate more games."
He's focused on the world juniors and winning a national title with the Wolverines, but the professional ranks loom large. McGroarty hears about it all the time from best friend and former Michigan teammate Adam Fantilli, who was selected No. 3 by the Columbus Blue Jackets last June and is in his rookie season.
"He's like, 'Oh man. This is the life, this is unreal,"' McGroarty said. "He's loving life, but I'm at Michigan. You only get so many years in college. The best time of your life.
"There's nothing like Michigan and there's nothing like college. I'm in no rush."
He was, however, in a race to get better following that scary injury that almost derailed a dream.
"It really seemed unlikely — almost like 100 per cent — that I wasn't coming to Sweden," McGroarty said. "A tough time, I was going through a lot. But I'm here now."
And looking for gold. | https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/manitoba/jets-mcgroarty-world-juniors-1.7072010?cmp=rss | 2024-01-01T04:39:31Z |
Different start page for workspaces?
-
Hi all,
I love the new workspaces feature, it's improved my web browser UX tremendously. I work with separate 'personal' and 'work' workspaces now, and it's so much easier to keep tabs organised.
Just wondering ... would it maybe be possible to have different shortcut links displayed on the 'start page' for different workspaces? Maybe something simple like if there's a folder/tab with the workspace name, it loads that by default (as an option, naturally ... ;))? Because the things I typically want to access when I'm working (work email, project management software, hr software) are different to the ones I want to access in my own time (amazon, web forums, ..)
Thanks. Even without this, workspaces are A-MA-ZING.
-
@algy Yes, i miss such feature, too. I voted for.
-
I would also like to see this!!!
Same as OP, even though I am a new user, I use Vivaldi for work and for personal stuff. It would be great to keep the workspace start pages different. -
@algy I have pinned the tabs that I want for each workspace. That way, the first few tabs act like a sort of speed dial or favorites, while the rest are my working tabs.
With vertical tabs, there's even a nice horizontal divider between the twoThis even had the added bonus that all the new tabs I open from the first ones are already in the correct workspace
-
@tlkhorses for the separation of work and personal different profiles would be maybe an option, but I would like to use it for each customer of mine and for that purpose a start page for each workspace would be a great feature fitting well to the philosophy of Vivaldi. | https://forum.vivaldi.net/topic/86223/different-start-page-for-workspaces | 2024-01-01T04:39:31Z |

Kanye West has revealed he is selling his Malibu mansion because of the gray-colored walls that line the half-renovated home.
The renovation is still going on, but the Chicago native has already put the home up for sale last week for $53 million. According to Daily Mail, a source said Ye is selling the home because he doesn't like the gray walls.
"Ye prefers earth tones, muddy colors from silt to loam but never too cold and nothing visually draining like a clay," the source told Daily Mail. "Architects and designers working for Ye have in the past been dispatched to collect soil samples from the UK, France and elsewhere as color references for his iconic looks."
The person continued, "Unfortunately, the concrete settled into more of a cadet gray and he was hoping for a warmer tone, more of dovetail gray or coachman's cape. Ye would only visit the house at sunrise and sunset, when he said the color didn't irritate him so much. Eventually, he stopped going altogether."
Japanese architect Tadao Ando designed the home, and Ye dropped a cool $57 million for it back in 2021. Once the purchase was finalized, the rapper took it upon himself to renovate the home by taking out the walls, doors, windows, and plumbing for a much more minimalistic look.
The house is also at the center of a lawsuit between Ye and former contractor Tony Saxon, who's suing the rapper for labor code violations, $1 million in unpaid wages, and damages. Saxon claimed he was "project manager, caretaker, and 24/7 security" and worked 16-hour shifts while also sleeping on the floor.
He also alleged that West ignored his safety concerns and gave him the boot in November 2021 after refusing to take out the widows and electrical wiring. In an interview with NBC, Saxon said, "We were going to be gutting all of that out and sort of building him a Bat Cave" where West said he could "hide from the Clintons in and the Kardashians in."
According to Saxon, Ye "wanted no electricity. He only wanted plants. He only wanted candles. He only wanted battery lights. And he just wanted to have everything open and dark."
Ye has since denied the allegations in a statement through his attorneys, saying: "Defendant denies generally and specifically each and every allegation contained in the complaint, and each and every purported cause of action contained in the complaint and specifically denies that Plaintiff has sustained any injury, damage, or loss by reason of any act, omission or breach by Defendant and denies that Plaintiff is entitled to any or all of the relief requested in the complaint." | https://www.complex.com/music/a/markelibert/kanye-west-selling-mansion-walls-gray | 2024-01-01T04:39:36Z |
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WKRN) — An estimated 200,000 people decided to ring in the new year in Music City, where a huge crowd enjoyed the 2023 Jack Daniel’s New Year’s Eve Live: Nashville’s Big Bash.
“We came here for the country music because this is where it’s at,” said Shawn Anderson, who visited from Georgia with his wife, Tonya.
The New Year’s Eve celebration included special performances from Thomas Rhett; Elle King; Lynyrd Skynyrd; and Lainey Wilson, who was joined by 17-year-old Grace Bowers, one of the youngest performers to ever take the stage at Nashville’s Big Bash.
“Being here right now, it’s just, it’s the biggest stage I’ve ever played on. I’ve gotten a lot of really great opportunities in the past, and I’m very thankful for those, but this is definitely going to be my biggest one yet,” Bowers said.
There was also a special Hip Hop 50 tribute celebrating the genre’s influence over the past half century, which featured Nashville Mayor Freddie O’Connell as a guest DJ.
“Sometimes people will be listening to the words. You’ve got to listen to the music, and listen to the vibration, and you cannot help but think about hip hop, like the beats and like the overall, the frequency and vibrations,” Nashville resident Tamara Bates explained.
As crowds come together for music and celebrations, locals hoped to show attendees at Nashville’s Big Bash a night to remember.
“If you’re at home and you’re considering on coming out tonight, I want to challenge you to come on out to the Big Bash here at Bicentennial Park, and bring the new year in with the rest of us here in Nashville, to celebrate and sing and having a wonderful, safe time,” said Bishop Frederick Barr, the owner of Barr’s Music City Soul Food, who was serving hot dogs and concessions at the event.
More than 300 production crew members worked to build the stage for Nashville’s Big Bash, as well as set up for the Music Note Drop and the fireworks. As the clock ticks closer to midnight, Bash-goers will watch a massive musical note — which weighs roughly 400 pounds and travels down a 138 foot tower — drop, followed by a brief fireworks show. | https://www.wkrn.com/news/local-news/nashville/thousands-of-people-celebrate-new-years-eve-at-nashvilles-big-bash/ | 2024-01-01T04:39:37Z |
Colorado mom wanted for killing 2 of her children arrested in United Kingdom
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (KKTV/Gray News) - A mother wanted in connection with the deaths of two of her children has been arrested in the United Kingdom, according to police.
Colorado Springs Police say Kimberlee Singler was taken into custody without incident.
On December 19, just after midnight, police responded to a call about a burglary in the 5300 block of Palomino Ranch Point.
When police arrived, they found two children, a 9-year-old girl and a 7-year-old boy, dead inside the residence.
Singler and an 11-year-old girl were found with injuries and taken to a local hospital. All three children are Singler’s children.
As the investigation continued, a warrant for Singler’s arrest was issued on December 26. The arrest warrant included charges of murder in the first degree, child abuse, and assault.
A $10,000,000 bond was set by the court.

Swinney: Clemson RB Shipley has no structural damage in left leg, no surgery necessary
CLEMSON, S.C. (AP) — 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.

Over the next 12 months, there will be eight bank holidays for people across England and Wales to enjoy.
Knowing ahead of time the bank holidays taking place in the UK is a good way to plan time off and use the dates to your advantage. If a bank holiday is on a weekend, a ‘substitute’ weekday becomes a bank holiday, normally the following Monday.
It's important to know that your employer does not have to give you paid leave on bank or public holidays. Bank holidays may also affect how and when your benefits are paid.

Toni Braxton has cleared up rumors that she and Birdman were tying the knot.
Over the last few days, the rumor mill has been spinning regarding Braxton and Birdman's alleged wedding that took place in Mexico. However, the rumors are exactly what they are, as no one went south of the border to get married, according to Braxton's Instagram post that was shared on Sunday.
"My dear friend @birdman and I are not married… never been married," she wrote in the caption of her post, which she titled #FakeNews. "We are both single."
Braxton and Birdman started dating in 2016 after rumors sparked up over their budding romance. Their professional relationship goes all the way back to 2002 when they joined forces on Birdman's song "Baby You Can Do It."
The two remained fairly lowkey until 2017 in an episode of Braxton Family Values, where the singer claimed Birdman was an "undercover romantic." Tamar also confirmed they were dating during an episode of The Wendy Williams Show when she referred to Birdman as her brother-in-law.
The romance between the two sparked up again in 2019 via Instagram when Birdman shared a photo of himself and Braxton with the caption, "4LiFe @tonibraxton." That post has since been deleted, but just last month, Braxton posted a photo of herself with Birdman, suggesting they were still an item.
"Sending Sunday kisses. @birdman [kiss emoji]," she wrote in the caption of the since-deleted post. | https://www.complex.com/music/a/markelibert/toni-braxton-birdman-wedding-rumors | 2024-01-01T04:39:42Z |
