The convener of the Samyukta Kisan Morcha (non-political), Jagjeet Singh Dallewal is set to begin his fast unto death from tomorrow at the Khanauri border in Sangrur district in support of various demands, including a legal guarantee for MSP. Farmers have already started thronging the Khanauri border ahead of fast unto death, with numbers swelling significantly. Hundreds of farmers have been protesting at Shambhu in Patiala district and Khanauri in Sangrur on the Punjab-Haryana border since February 13. Dallewal on Monday said that he will begin his fast unto death to make the Union government fulfil the legal guarantee for MSP demand. “We waited for nine months for the Union government to initiate dialogue with us to fulfil our demand of legal guarantee for MSP, but no avail. Now, there is no option left but to take this step. It is do-or-die situation for us,” said 67-year-old Dallewal. In a dramatic development, Dallewal on Monday reached Faridkot, his home district, and transferred his property to his son, daughter-in-law and grandson, a day before sitting on fast unto death. He said, “I will come to Faridkot only after getting the demands of farmers met or I wouldn’t show up. Farmers are dying by suicide every day, and it is the legal guarantee for MSP which can save them.” In 2022, Dallewal sat on fast unto death at Tehna village in Faridkot district against punitive action for stubble burning, no compensation for crop damage due to inclement weather, and pest attack and land acquisition for national highway projects. Dallewal then had ended his hunger strike on the sixth day after assurance from the Punjab government that their demands would be met. Sukhjeet Singh, member of SKM (non-political), said, “If Dallewal dies during the fast unto death, then his mortal remains won’t be taken to his village. Instead, it would be kept at the protest site till their demands are met.” “If he dies during the protest, I will be the next to sit on fast unto death. It will continue until our demands are met.”Is Outlook down? Thousands of Microsoft 365 users report outage issuesThe week after adjusting their roster to protect prospects and define their depth, the Cardinals continued that annual addition of minor league deals to fill organizational openings with the signing of a rival's former top prospect. The Cardinals formally announced a minor league agreement with infielder Jose Barrero on Monday afternoon, a week or so after reaching a deal with the shortstop who was Cincinnati's No. 1 prospect entering the 2022 season. He was their opening day shortstop in 2023. Viewed as a slick fielder, Barrero's offense hasn't kept pace, and the Reds moved him off the roster when peers surpassed him. Barrero, now 26, played 139 games for the Reds in the majors and has a .186/.242/.255 slash line through four different seasons. In 2023, he began the year as the Reds' starting shortstop, and through 46 games that year, he had his best stretch of production, with a .218 average, a .295 on-base percentage and a .619 on-base plus slugging percentage (OPS) through 149 plate appearances. In around 600 innings at shortstop from 2022-23 in the majors, Barrero registered a minus-7 defensive runs saved, per FanGraphs. A native of Havana, Cuba, Barrero was one of the Reds' high-dollar signings from the international free-agent marketplace within the past decade. They outbid other teams with a $5 million offer, and within a few years, Barrero stood out within Cincinnati's organization for his potential. He represented the Reds in the 2021 Futures Game. Baseball America ranked him the No. 33rd prospect in all of the minors entering the 2022 season, and BA also had him No. 1 within the Reds organization. That put him ahead of No. 2 Hunter Greene, No. 3 Nick Lodolo and No. 4 Elly De La Cruz. In a projection of the Reds' 2025 lineup, Baseball America had Barrero at shortstop and electrifying talent De La Cruz at third base. This past March, the Reds placed Barrero on waivers, and the Rangers picked him up. He played 49 games at Class AAA Round Rock and hit .188/.277/.345 for a .622 OPS. His season was abbreviated by an injury that ultimately put him on the 60-day injured list. He did not play after an on-field collision, and journalist Francys Romero reported that Barrero had to have his spleen removed as a result of the collision. This month, Barrero had the right to choose minor league free agency and did. Now healthy, Barrero has been playing in the Dominican Republic's winter league. For Estrellas and its manager Fernando Tatis Sr., Barrero hit .238 with a .360 on-base percentage and a .492 slugging percentage through his first 21 games and 71 plate appearances. So far this offseason, the Cardinals have acquired depth at two spots they and many other clubs usually go shopping for this time of year: pitching and middle infield. The Cardinals claimed right-hander Roddery Munoz off waivers from Miami, and they signed right-hander Michael Gomez to a minor league deal. Gomez and Barrero both received invites to major league spring training as part of their new contracts. Minor league deals mean the player is not on the 40-player roster. This past week, the Cardinals did not present a contract to right-hander Adam Kloffenstein, allowing him to become a free agent. The Cardinals presented contracts to every other member of the 40-player roster who was not already signed for the 2025 season. They have two openings on the 40-player roster. The Cardinals opted to keep infielder Jose Fermin as depth at multiple positions, and Barrero adds a challenger for that same role with the possibility of backing up at shortstop. Barrero also gives the Cardinals a shortstop at Class AAA Memphis as prospect Thomas Saggese makes his bid for the big league club. With the exception of the Los Angeles Angels and their beat-the-rush signings of a few free agents, the hot stove has yet to warm this winter. A lot of attention has been on the courtship of Juan Soto. Throughout Major League Baseball, the expectation is that activity will accelerate into a flurry around the annual winter meetings, which are set to start Dec. 9 in Dallas. Cardinals president of baseball operations John Mozeliak told the Post-Dispatch recently that the "pace" of his conversations with other teams and free agents are pointing toward activity at the winter meetings.Two Greenpeace activists were arrested after chaining themselves to a replica oil pumpjack outside Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre’s official residence in Ottawa Thursday morning. Activists Keith Stewart and Trevor Cluthé were arrested and charged with mischief and intimidation, Greenpeace communications campaigner Laura Bergamo said shortly after the arrest. At 7 a.m. on Nov. 21, Greenpeace activists set up the installation in the driveway of Stornoway, the official residence of the Opposition leader, and chained Stewart and Cluthé to the structure. The demonstration sought to draw attention to what Greenpeace calls the Conservative Party’s “anti-climate agenda” with Poilievre eager to send Canadians to the polls for what he dubs a “carbon tax election.” Firefighters cut the chains tying Stewart and Cluthé to the pumpjack structure just after 9 a.m. so they could be arrested. The structure was removed by a tow truck shortly after. “We’re here today to send a message to Pierre Poilevre that Greenpeace will not stand idly by while he rips up Canada’s Climate Protection Plan, and we hope no one else will either,” Stewart said in an interview before his arrest. “We know we have the capacity to avoid the worst impacts of climate change. That means making the biggest polluters, oil and gas companies, do their fair share. Pierre Poilievre has promised to let them off the hook... That means everyone else pays the cost in wildfires, in heat waves, in floods, climate change is here now.” Cluthé hopes their protest will “raise more awareness among Canadians of Polievre’s complete disregard for the environment and the climate crisis,” he said in an interview early Thursday morning with Canada’s National Observer. “We’re here in support of Indigenous folks and all the other marginalized communities that always take the brunt of the climate crisis first,” Cluthé said. Last November Poilievre said he is not proposing Canada withdraw from the Paris Agreement (an international commitment to limit global warming) but he has yet to present a climate plan. He says that if elected he will scrap the consumer carbon price. Poilievre was not seen exiting Stornoway on Thursday morning, but his children left through the back door. Police, RCMP and personal security were present for the entirety of the Greenpeace action. A few hours later, Poilievre held a press conference at Parliament Hill and was asked in French about the Greenpeace protest and what Canada’s climate objectives would be under a Poilievre government. Poilievre reiterated that his approach to climate and environment would entail “technology, not taxes.” Poilievre said, in French, that the conservatives are the “only party with an environmental plan” and the plan is “energy abundance.” This includes speeding up construction permits for hydropower, ramping up critical mineral production in Canada and exporting natural gas, Poilievre said. Along with oil and gas expansion, Poilievre has also supported carbon capture technology and nuclear power. While the Conservatives’ stance on the consumer carbon tax is clear, Poilievre has not said whether he would keep the industrial carbon pricing system for large polluters. The latter has a bigger impact on reducing emissions than the consumer fuel charge. A Canadian Climate Institute analysis from March 2024 looked at which federal climate policies will have the biggest impact and found the industrial carbon pricing system will comprise 20 to 48 per cent of Canada’s emission reductions by 2030. Along with a pledge to kill the consumer carbon price, Poilievre opposes a slew of incoming and existing policies including a cap on planet-warming greenhouse gas emissions from oil and gas production, regulations to clean up Canada’s electricity grid by 2035 and the current clean fuel regulations.
How co-writing a book threatened the Carters’ marriageBEIRUT (AP) — Israel’s military launched airstrikes across Lebanon on Monday, unleashing explosions throughout the country and killing at least 31 while Israeli leaders appeared to be closing in on a negotiated ceasefire with the Hezbollah militant group. Israeli strikes hit commercial and residential buildings in Beirut as well as in the port city of Tyre. Military officials said they targeted areas known as Hezbollah strongholds. They issued evacuation orders for Beirut’s southern suburbs, and strikes landed across the city, including meters from a Lebanese police base and the city’s largest public park. The barrage came as officials indicated they were nearing agreement on a ceasefire, while Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu ‘s Security Cabinet prepared to discuss an offer on the table. RELATED COVERAGE The UAE arrests 3 Uzbek nationals for the killing of an Israeli-Moldovan rabbi Police in Jordan kill a gunman in a shootout near the Israeli Embassy Israel cracks down on Palestinian citizens who speak out against the war in Gaza Airstrikes kill at least 31 Massive explosions lit up Lebanon’s skies with flashes of orange, sending towering plumes of smoke into the air as Israeli airstrikes pounded Beirut’s southern suburbs Monday. The blasts damaged buildings and left shattered glass and debris scattered across nearby streets. No casualties were reported after many residents fled the targeted sites. Some of the strikes landed close to central Beirut and near Christian neighborhoods and other targets where Israel had issued evacuation warnings, including in Tyre and Nabatiyeh province. Israeli airstrikes also hit the northeast Baalbek-Hermel region without warning. Lebanon’s Health Ministry said Monday that 26 people were killed in southern Lebanon, four in the eastern Baalbek-Hermel province and one in Choueifat, a neighborhood in Beirut’s southern suburbs that was not subjected to evacuation warnings on Monday. The deaths brought the total toll to 3,768 killed in Lebanon throughout 13 months of war between Israel and Hezbollah and nearly two months since Israel launched its ground invasion. Many of those killed since the start of the war between Israel and Hezbollah have been civilians , and health officials said some of the recovered bodies were so severely damaged that DNA testing would be required to confirm their identities. Israel says it has killed more than 2,000 Hezbollah members. Lebanon’s Health Ministry says the war has displaced 1.2 million people. Israeli ground forces invaded southern Lebanon in early October, meeting heavy resistance in a narrow strip of land along the border. The military had previously exchanged attacks across the border with Hezbollah, an Iran-backed militant group that began firing rockets into Israel the day after the war in Gaza began last year. Lebanese politicians have decried the ongoing airstrikes and said they are impeding U.S.-led ceasefire negotiations. The country’s deputy parliament speaker accused Israel of ramping up its bombardment in order to pressure Lebanon to make concessions in indirect ceasefire negotiations with Hezbollah. Elias Bousaab, an ally of the militant group, said Monday that the pressure has increased because “we are close to the hour that is decisive regarding reaching a ceasefire.” Hopes grow for a ceasefire Israeli officials voiced similar optimism Monday about prospects for a ceasefire. Mike Herzog, the country’s ambassador to Washington, earlier in the day told Israeli Army Radio that several points had yet to be finalized. Though any deal would require agreement from the government, Herzog said Israel and Hezbollah were “close to a deal.” “It can happen within days,” he said. Israeli officials have said the sides are close to an agreement that would include withdrawal of Israeli forces from southern Lebanon and a pullback of Hezbollah fighters from the Israeli border. But several sticking points remain. Two Israeli officials told The Associated Press that Netanyahu’s security Cabinet had scheduled a meeting for Tuesday, but they said it remained unclear whether the Cabinet would vote to approve the deal. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were discussing internal deliberations. Danny Danon, Israel’s U.N. ambassador, told reporters Monday that he expected a ceasefire agreement with Hezbollah to have stages and to be discussed by leaders Monday or Tuesday. Still, he warned, “it’s not going to happen overnight.” After previous hopes for a ceasefire were dashed, U.S. officials cautioned that negotiations were not yet complete and noted that there could be last-minute hitches that either delay or destroy an agreement. “Nothing is done until everything is done,” White House national security spokesman John Kirby said Monday. The proposal under discussion to end the fighting calls for an initial two-month ceasefire during which Israeli forces would withdraw from Lebanon and Hezbollah would end its armed presence along the southern border south of the Litani River. The withdrawals would be accompanied by an influx of thousands more Lebanese army troops, who have been largely sidelined in the war, to patrol the border area along with an existing U.N. peacekeeping force . Western diplomats and Israeli officials said Israel is demanding the right to strike in Lebanon if it believes Hezbollah is violating the terms. The Lebanese government has said that such an arrangement would authorize violations of the country’s sovereignty. A ceasefire could mark a step toward ending the regionwide war that ballooned after Hamas-led militants stormed into southern Israel on Oct. 7, 2023, killing some 1,200 people, mostly civilians, and abducting another 250 . The lack of a ceasefire has emerged as a political liability for Israeli leaders including Netanyahu, particularly while 60,000 Israelis remain away from their homes in the country’s north after more than a year of cross-border violence. Hezbollah rockets have reached as far south into Israel as Tel Aviv. At least 75 people have been killed, more than half of them civilians. More than 50 Israeli soldiers died fighting in the ground offensive in Lebanon. The Israeli military said about 250 projectiles were fired Sunday, with some intercepted. A ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah, the strongest of Iran’s armed proxies , is expected to significantly calm regional tensions that have led to fears of a direct, all-out war between Israel and Iran. It’s not clear how the ceasefire will affect the Israel-Hamas war in Gaza. Hezbollah had long insisted that it would not agree to a ceasefire until the war in Gaza ends, but it dropped that condition. A top Hamas official in Lebanon said the Palestinian militant group would support a ceasefire between its Lebanese ally Hezbollah and Israel, despite Hezbollah’s previous promises to stop the fighting in Lebanon only if the war in Gaza ends. “Any announcement of a ceasefire is welcome. Hezbollah has stood by our people and made significant sacrifices,” Osama Hamdan of Hamas’ political wing told the Lebanese broadcaster Al-Mayadeen, which is seen as politically allied with Hezbollah. While the ceasefire proposal is expected to be approved if Netanyahu brings it to a vote in his security Cabinet, one hard-line member, National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir, said he would oppose it. He said on X that a deal with Lebanon would be a “big mistake” and a “missed historic opportunity to eradicate Hezbollah.” If the ceasefire talks fail, Jordanian Foreign Minister Ayman Safadi said, “it will mean more destruction and more and more animosity and more dehumanization and more hatred and more bitterness.” Speaking at a G7 meeting in Fiuggi, Italy, the last summit of its kind before U.S. President Joe Biden leaves office, Safadi said such a failure “will doom the future of the region to more conflict and more killing and more destruction.” ___ Federman reported from Jerusalem and Metz from Rabat, Morocco.

A Molly-Mae fan's opinion on the Maebe range, and its prices EVER since Molly-Mae Hague, 25, walked into the Love Island villa back in 2019, I’ve always been a mega fan. After hearing the news that she was coming out with a fashion brand, of course I was excited. But as much as I hate to admit it, I’m disappointed. I understand that she’s launched Maebe as a more high class brand. I know it’s not going to be Shein quality. But with prices varying from £35 to £140, I’m definitely not impressed. Maebe’s “ultimate blazer” is priced at an eye-watering £140, whilst a very simple, plain white tee is a whopping £35. Not only this, but the “contour popper top” is £50, and a seemingly boring white shirt will set you back a whopping £65. And if that wasn’t bad enough, £90 for a pair of jeans? I understand paying £50 for a pair of good quality denims, but £90?! That’s incredibly steep considering you can get Levi’s, a well-established brand that’s been going for donkey years, for just a tenner more. So, will I be buying anything from Maebe? The only thing I can say to that is Maebe (definitely) not. by Abigail Wilson, Senior Digital Writer 3 She launched the brand earlier this year Credit: instagram/maebeSEOUL, South Korea (AP) — The president of South Korea early Wednesday lifted the martial law he imposed on the country hours earlier, bending to political pressure after a tense night in which troops surrounded parliament and lawmakers voted to reject military rule. President Yoon Suk Yeol, who appeared likely to be impeached over his actions, imposed martial law late Tuesday out of frustration with the opposition, vowing to eliminate “anti-state” forces as he struggles against opponents who control parliament and that he accuses of sympathizing with communist North Korea. Police and military personnel were seen leaving the grounds of parliament following the bipartisan vote to overrule the president, and the declaration was formally lifted around 4:30 a.m. during a Cabinet meeting. Parliament acted swiftly after martial law was imposed, with National Assembly Speaker Woo Won Shik declaring that the law was “invalid” and that lawmakers would “protect democracy with the people.” In all, martial law was in effect for about six hours. The president’s surprising move harkened back to an era of authoritarian leaders that the country has not seen since the 1980s, and it was immediately denounced by the opposition and the leader of Yoon’s own conservative party. Lee Jae-myung , leader of the liberal Democratic Party, which holds the majority in the 300-seat parliament, said the party’s lawmakers would remain in the Assembly’s main hall until Yoon formally lifted his order. Woo applauded how troops quickly left the Assembly after the vote. “Even with our unfortunate memories of military coups, our citizens have surely observed the events of today and saw the maturity of our military,” Woo said. While announcing his plan to lift martial law, Yoon continued to criticize parliament’s attempts to impeach key government officials and senior prosecutors. He said lawmakers had engaged in “unscrupulous acts of legislative and budgetary manipulation that are paralyzing the functions of the state.” Jo Seung-lae, a Democratic lawmaker, claimed that security camera footage following Yoon’s declaration showed that troops moved in a way that suggested they were trying to arrest Lee, Woo and even Han Dong-hoon, the leader of Yoon’s People Power Party. Officials from Yoon’s office and the Defense Ministry did not respond to requests for comment early Wednesday. Seemingly hundreds of protesters gathered in front of the Assembly, waving banners and calling for Yoon’s impeachment. Some protesters scuffled with troops ahead of the lawmakers’ vote, but there were no immediate reports of injuries or major property damage. At least one window was broken as troops attempted to enter the Assembly building. One woman tried unsuccessfully to pull a rifle away from one of the soldiers, while shouting “Aren’t you embarrassed?” Under South Korea’s constitution, the president can declare martial law during “wartime, war-like situations or other comparable national emergency states” that require the use of military force to maintain peace and order. It was questionable whether South Korea is currently in such a state. When martial law is declared, “special measures” can be employed to restrict freedom of press, freedom of assembly and other rights, as well as the power of courts. The constitution also states that the president must oblige when the National Assembly demands the lifting of martial law with a majority vote. Following Yoon’s announcement of martial law, South Korea’s military proclaimed that parliament and other political gatherings that could cause “social confusion” would be suspended, South Korea’s Yonhap news agency said. The military said anyone who violated the decree could be arrested without a warrant. In Washington, the White House said the U.S. was “seriously concerned” by the events in Seoul. A spokesperson for the National Security Council said President Joe Biden’s administration was not notified in advance of the martial law announcement and was in contact with the South Korean government. Pentagon spokesman Maj. Gen. Pat Ryder said there was no effect on the more than 27,000 U.S. service members based in South Korea. The South Korean military also said that the country’s striking doctors should return to work within 48 hours, Yonhap said. Thousands of doctors have been striking for months over government plans to expand the number of students at medical schools. Soon after martial law was declared, the parliament speaker called on his YouTube channel for all lawmakers to gather at the National Assembly. He urged military and law enforcement personnel to “remain calm and hold their positions. All 190 lawmakers who participated in the vote supported the lifting of martial law. At one point, television footage showed police officers blocking the entrance of the National Assembly and helmeted soldiers carrying rifles in front of the building. An Associated Press photographer saw at least three helicopters, likely from the military, that landed inside the Assembly grounds, while two or three helicopters circled above the site. The leader of Yoon’s conservative party called the decision to impose martial law “wrong.” Lee, who narrowly lost to Yoon in the 2022 presidential election, said Yoon’s announcement was “illegal and unconstitutional.” Yoon said during a televised speech that martial law would help “rebuild and protect” the country from “falling into the depths of national ruin.” He said he would “eradicate pro-North Korean forces and protect the constitutional democratic order.” “I will eliminate anti-state forces as quickly as possible and normalize the country,” he said, while asking the people to believe in him and tolerate “some inconveniences.” Yoon — whose approval rating dipped in recent months — has struggled to push his agenda against an opposition-controlled parliament since taking office in 2022. His party has been locked in an impasse with the liberal opposition over next year’s budget bill. The opposition has also attempted to impeach three top prosecutors, including the chief of the central Seoul prosecutors’ office, in what the conservatives have called a vendetta against their criminal investigations of Lee, who has been seen as the favorite for the next presidential election in 2027 in opinion polls. During his televised announcement, Yoon also described the opposition as “shameless pro-North Korean anti-state forces who are plundering the freedom and happiness of our citizens.” He did not elaborate. Yoon has taken a hard line on North Korea over its nuclear ambitions, departing from the policies of his liberal predecessor, Moon Jae-in, who pursued inter-Korean engagement. Yoon has also dismissed calls for independent investigations into scandals involving his wife and top officials, drawing quick, strong rebukes from his political rivals. Yoon’s move was the first declaration of martial law since the country’s democratization in 1987. The country’s last previous martial law was in October 1979, following the assassination of former military dictator Park Chung-hee. Sydney Seiler, Korean chair at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, argued that the move was symbolic for Yoon to express his frustration with the opposition-controlled parliament. “He has nothing to lose,” said Seiler, comparing Yoon’s move to the Hail Mary pass in American football, with a slim chance of success. Now Yoon faces likely impeachment, a scenario that was also possible before he made the bold move, Seiler said. Natalia Slavney, research analyst at the Stimson Center’s 38 North website that focuses on Korean affairs, said Yoon’s imposition of martial law was “a serious backslide of democracy" that followed a “worrying trend of abuse” since he took office in 2022. South Korea “has a robust history of political pluralism and is no stranger to mass protests and swift impeachments,” Slavney said, citing the example of former President Park Geun-hye, the country’s first female president, who was ousted from office and imprisoned for bribery and other crimes in 2017 .

Xavier Clarke to coach Indigenous All-Stars, Michael O'Loughlin to chair selectorsHow co-writing a book threatened the Carters’ marriageFrom 1h ago 20.42 CET 'Protestival' to start in Newcastle harbour Climate activists will take to the water today to protest against fossil fuels at the world's biggest coal port despite government efforts to crack down on the action, AAP reports. The multi-day "protestival" will occupy parts of Newcastle harbour and foreshore with a flotilla, live music and other events revolving around protest and climate. Former federal minister and Midnight Oil frontman Peter Garrett will join the live music lineup that will be audible both on land and from the water. It follows a successful last-minute legal challenge by organisers, Rising Tide, to overturn a planned "marine exclusion zone" by the government that would have prevented the protesters from entering the water. As a result, the group said protesters could peacefully enter the water off Horseshoe Beach, near the mouth of the harbour, to conduct a flotilla without impeding the nearby shipping channel. NSW police have repeatedly flagged concerns with the safety of the event, citing a similar action in 2023 that resulted in the arrests of nine people who refused to exit the water at an agreed time.

While the move was publicly announced yesterday, the New York Giants didn't officially remove former playoff quarterback Daniel Jones from their roster until just now. On Saturday, the New York Giants officially waived Jones just 20 months into a four-year, $160 million contract extension that they gave him in 2023. In a corresponding move, the Giants signed quarterback Tim Boyle from their practice squad. The Giants also waived linebacker Tomon Fox while activating pass rusher Kayvon Thibodeaux from injured reserve. Boyle will most likely serve as the third-string quarterback of the Giants for the rest of the season. He is 0-5 as a starter with a 61.7-percent completion rate, 1,087 passing yards and four touchdowns with 12 interceptions in his career. Thibodeaux emerged as one of the league's brightest young pass rushers after going No. 5 overall to the Giants in the 2022 NFL Draft. In 36 career games he has 17.5 sacks, 36 QB hits and 21 tackles for loss. However, he's been dealing with injuries and has not played since early October.

On a cap space level, the move won't be a backbreaker. He will incur a $22 million dead money cap hit on the Giants next year but the team will be able to wash their hands of his contract after 2025. Nic Antaya/Getty Images Daniel Jones' tenure in New York ends with 14,582 passing yards, 70 touchdowns through the air, 15 touchdowns on the ground, 47 interceptions and a 64.1-percent completion rate. He finished 11th in the voting for Comeback Player of the Year in 2022 after leading the Giants to the playoffs. But after signing that massive contract extension in the 2023 offseason, Jones won just three games as a starter and has put the entire future of the franchise in doubt. While Jones handled himself professionally, the fact of the matter is that they weren't any closer to winning a Super Bowl with him than without him.

Nordstrom Is Selling 'Beautiful' $130 Sam Edelman Booties for Just $75, and Shoppers Say They're 'So Comfortable'Vancouver Canucks captain Quinn Hughes has established himself as one of the NHL’s best players over the past two seasons, but local fans still feel like he’s disrespected on the national level. Canucks fans are known for voicing their opinions on social media and did so today when an with thoughts from real voters. Seventy-five percent of those surveyed in the article picked Colorado Avalanche defenceman Cale Makar as the Norris Trophy leader. The other 25% was split between Hughes and Zack Werenski. Within minutes of Wyshynski posting the article to social media, Canucks fans were making it known that Hughes deserves more love, as they often feel he does from east coast fans and media. Hughes and Makar have been compared since they entered the league. The Canucks captain has 32 points in 26 games so far this season, while Makar has 35 points in 29 contests. Wyshynski’s page was flooded with angry Canucks fans, although he later clarified that Hughes would be his pick. Fans took specific issue with one line from a voter in the article, saying, “Makar is not only lapping the field offensively, he’s taking on primary matchup role in Colorado, which is something that players like Quinn Hughes and Victor Hedman are not.” Hughes has scored more per game than Makar so far this season and often faces off against the other team’s best players. This year’s Norris Trophy race will likely come down to the wire. Both Hughes and Makar have gotten off to excellent starts this season, and it could still go either way. The two are redefining what it means to play defence in the modern NHL, and fans are lucky to watch them on a nightly basis.Illinois’ minimum wage to increase to $15 on Jan. 1, completing 6-year transition
