(AP) — With tears occasionally welling in his eyes, Daniel Jones disagreed on Thursday with the New York Giants’ decision to bench him earlier this week and perhaps end his five-plus tenure as the team’s quarterback. The 27-year-old Jones said he gave the team everything he had after being taken sixth overall in the 2019 draft and he believes he still has a future in the NFL. He held himself accountable for the Giants making the playoffs once in his tenure as the starter. The Duke product took over early in his rookie season when then-coach Pat Shurmur benched two-time Super Bowl MVP Eli Manning, who was near the end of his career. Coach Brian Daboll benched Jones on Monday after the Giants (2-8) returned to practice following a bye week and 20-17 overtime loss to Carolina in Germany. Tommy DeVito will start Sunday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, with Daboll hoping he can spark the team. “Definitely not happy about it,” said Jones, who read a 90-second statement before taking questions from reporters. “Yeah, not what you want to hear. So, yeah, all those emotions you have. But at the end of the day, this is football. We’re in a business where your expected to get results and we weren’t doing it.” Wearing his no-contact red jersey with a faded No. 8, Jones indicated the Giants offered him the opportunity to walk away from the team with seven games left in the season. He said he is considering it, but he also wanted to stay and help DeVito get ready this week. It is unlikely the Giants are going to let him play again. He has two years left on a four-year, $160 million contract. Next season includes a $23 million guarantee that will kick in if he is hurt and is not ready to start the 2025 season. Since being benched, Jones is barely getting any snaps, with most of them being taken by DeVito and backup Drew Lock. “I got the injury guarantee,” Jones said of his lack of work. Asked if he would have waived the guarantee, Jones said general manager Joe Schoen and his agent, Brian Murphy, discussed the issue but that was it. Jones spoke for almost 11 minutes. He got emotional when told receiver Darius Slayton and defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence both referred to him as still the best quarterback on the team. All three were drafted in 2019. Jones called the Giants a first-class organization, cherished the relationships he has and thanked his teammates, coaches and staff.

Arrives a few hours prior to puck drop. “There have been some great times. But of course, we all wish there had been more of those,” Jones said. “I take full responsibility for my part in not bringing more wins. No one wanted to win more games worse than me. I gave everything I had on the field and in my preparation.” Jones called the 2024 season disappointing and took responsibility. “The idea to change something happens, and I understand. I love the game,” Jones said. “I love being part of a team. I’m excited for the next opportunity. I know that there’s a lot of good football in front of me.” ___ AP NFL: https://apnews.com/hub/nfl Advertisement Advertisement

Britney Spears felt like something wasn't right in the United States. Which is why the "Baby One More Time" singer revealed on her 43rd birthday that she'd made the decision to move to Mexico in an effort to get away from the paparazzi. "It really kind of hurts my feelings," Britney shared in an Instagram video Dec. 2 , "that the paparazzi make my face look like I'm wearing, like a white Jason mask. It doesn't even look like me." The "Stronger" singer added that the paparazzi have "always been incredibly cruel to" her and that while she knows she's "not perfect at all by any means," she believes the way that they've treated her has been "extremely mean and cruel." As she explained, "And that's why I've moved to Mexico." Britney—who shares sons Sean , 19, and Jayden , 18, with ex-husband Kevin Federline —was seen landing in Cabo San Lucas on Dec. 2 in photos obtained by TMZ and appeared to be all smiles sporting a white trench coat, black hat and sunglasses. In another Instagram video shared the same day , Britney joked that she wasn't actually getting older, saying, "I'm turning 5 this year. I'm turning 5-years old, and I have to go to kindergarten tomorrow." But it wasn't just her birthday and move to Mexico that made Dec. 2 a big day for the Grammy winner, as it was also when she became a legally single woman following her split from ex-husband Sam Asghari in August 2023 . A post shared by XILA MARIA RIVER RED (@britneyspears) Although the former couple settled their divorce in May , legal documents obtained by E! News confirmed the date upon which their marital status officially ended was Dec. 2, 2024. Despite the split, Sam has looked back fondly on his time with Britney. "You learn so much from being in relationships in general," the 30-year-old told E! News in July . "I appreciate all the amazing experiences that I got." He added that his time with Britney is "something that's always going to be a part of me." "I wish her the best," he said. "She's an amazing person and a huge part of my life and I always appreciate the moments we had together." For a look back at Sam and Britney's romance, keep reading. Britney Spears met Sam Asghari on the set of her super sexy "Slumber Party" music video, which dropped in November 2016. Onscreen chemistry? Check! About five months after filming, they began dating, making joint appearances at places like NBA games and on social media. Britney wished her fans a very Merry Christmas from her cozy spot in bed next to Sam. The lovebirds rang in 2017 by each other's side, and Brit-Brit couldn't help but share this adorable snapshot in celebration of New Year's Eve. Britney and Sam are huge fans of Snapchat, especially the puppy dog filter! In March 2017, the couple supported Sam's sister as she walked in a show at Los Angeles Fashion Week. Sunny Malibu has never looked better thanks to these two! Britney celebrated her main man's birthday with a picturesque hike. The personal trainer supported Britney backstage at one of her Las Vegas shows in March 2017. The pair got close for a photo opp ahead of Britney's Sin City performance. In June 2017, Sam surprised Britney by flying to Japan for some sightseeing between concerts. Sam tagged along with Britney and her two sons, Sean Preston and Jayden James Federline , as they enjoyed a day at Disneyland. "So in love with this puppy @samasghari," Britney captioned the photo. The lovebirds stepped out for a good cause at the 2018 GLAAD Media Awards . "Having the best time with my other half," Britney wrote alongside this photo of the pair in June 2018. Britney and Sam made a rare public appearance at the Once Upon a Time in Hollywood premiere. "Felt like a little trip to paradise for an early birthday celebration," Britney captioned a photo of the duo flying to Hawaii amid the COVID-19 pandemic in November 2020. Following the February 2021 release of "Framing Britney Spears," Sam released a personal statement : "I have always wanted nothing but the best for my better half, and will continue to support her following her dreams and creating the future she wants and deserves. I am thankful for all of the love and support she is receiving from her fans all over the world, and I am looking forward to a normal, amazing future together." In February 2021, a source close to the pop star offered rare insight into their shared private life. "Sam is very good to Britney and she's crazy about him," the insider told E! News . "She loves when they get to travel together and take a romantic vacation... They work out together and both are very into staying fit and taking care of their bodies. They love watching movies together and hanging out at home. But Britney also loves going out to dinner, especially for sushi." The lovebirds get attended Asghari's best friend's wedding in April 2021. Due to what a source described as "restrictions" involving the pandemic and her dad, Jamie Spears , an insider told E! News she "finally had an opportunity to get out and she took it." Ahead of his girlfriend's bombshell court testimony in June 2021, Sam shared his support for the social media movement calling for an end to her years-long conservatorship. During the June 23 conservatorship hearing, Britney testified to wanting what she described as the "real deal," marriage and a baby. According to the singer, the conservatorship prevents her from creating the future she wants. She told the judge, "I deserve to have the same rights as anybody does by having a child, a family, any of those things." As Britney continued to make positive strides in her conservatorship battle, a source close to Sam indicated a proposal was just over the horizon. "Engagement has always been in the cards for Sam and Britney, without question," the insider shared with E! News in September. "It's the direction their relationship has been heading for nearly two years now. It's always a discussion and it's not a question of if, it's when." The source explained further, "Things are evidently becoming better for Britney with her conservatorship and she's never felt this liberated in all aspects of her life. The closer she gets to freedom, the closer she is to seeing all of her dreams become an actual reality. Marrying Sam is high on that list and loving him the way she wants, how she wants, on her own terms." On Sept. 12, 2021, the music superstar announced her engagement . In a video shared to Instagram, Brit showed off her bling as Sam asked, "Look at that! Do you like it?" "Yes!" she told him. "Happy Birthday to my Fiancé ... I love you so much," Britney captioned a photo of the couple on a romantic getaway in March 2022. "... I want a family with you ... I want it all with you !!!!" On April 11, 2022 the Princess of Pop announced on Instagram that she and Sam had a baby on the way, writing, "I thought 'Geez ... what happened to my stomach ???' My husband said 'No you're food pregnant silly !!!' So I got a pregnancy test ... and uhhhhh well ... I am having a baby." The following month, Sam announced with the "deepest sadness" that they'd lost their "miracle baby early in the pregnancy." Britney and Sam tied the knot in Los Angeles on June 9, 2022. For her husband's 29th birthday, the singer shared a tribute to him on Instagram , writing, "Happy Birthday!!! I love you so much and hope you get all your birthday wishes and more!!!" Parting Ways Sam filed for divorce from Britney in August 2023. "After 6 years of love and commitment to each other my wife and I have decided to end our journey together," he wrote on Instagram Story Aug. 17. "We will hold onto the love and respect we have for each other and I wish her the best always." Their divorce was finalized in May 2024 and their marital status officially ended on Dec. 2, 2024 —Britney's 43rd birthday.

After telling Canadians that New Democrats would back Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's holiday affordability package and help pass it quickly, NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh now wants it split up, as he's only ready to support part of it. Last Thursday, Trudeau announced a $6.3-billion affordability package that included a two-month tax reprieve on a slate of items, from some essentials to common stocking stuffers, starting in mid-December and running through mid-February, as well as a new one-time benefit payment of $250 for 18.7 million workers, which would roll out in April. Later that day, Singh said New Democrats were behind the proposal and would give the minority Liberals the votes they needed to expedite the package through an otherwise-stalled Parliament. Now, after reading more specifics, Singh wants changes, as he's concerned that too many Canadians were left out of the workers' benefit. "We know that Canadians need a break... but we learned on Friday that the cheques are being excluded from some of the most vulnerable Canadians," Singh said. "From seniors, from people living with disabilities, and from students." "It is a slap in the face," he added. He is now calling on the Liberals to "fix" the benefit to include more Canadians — who he "assumed" would qualify for it — while maintaining his support for passing the GST holiday into law. "We're saying, ‘Let's move ahead on the GST holiday right away, we can get that done this week’... but the Liberals right now need to fix the cheques," he said. Singh, who was briefed on the announcement before it was made, would not say if his calls for expanding the benefit cheques would be an ultimatum or a deal-breaker when it comes to supporting the package overall. "We need some clarity from the Liberals," he said. "We're more concerned about what's not in the bill." Deputy Prime Minister and Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland confirmed Monday that the government quietly tabled draft legislation on Friday outlining how they'd enact these measures, "so that MPs from other parties would have a chance to see what we are proposing." She said the Liberals were having "energetic conversations with other parties about these measures." The actual bill, or bills to advance the tax break and $250 workers' benefit in Parliament, have yet to be presented. Freeland asserted Monday that both affordability-focused offerings will not be extended and will remain temporary — as billed — should they pass and become a reality. Bloc pans Liberals for 'suddenly' having billions to spend Bloc Quebecois Leader Yves-François Blanchet told reporters on Parliament Hill Monday that his party will not support the proposal, unless the benefit portion is expanded to include seniors and retired Canadians. In September, Blanchet gave the Liberals an ultimatum, calling on them to help pass a boost to Old Age Security payments if they wanted Bloc support on confidence votes going forward. The federal government dismissed the measure as insufficiently targeted and too expensive, at a cost of about $3 billion. Now, Blanchet says he will not support the Canada Workers Benefit for the same reason. “The government said it doesn't have $3 billion, and suddenly it has $6 billion,” he said in French. The GST and HST holiday is estimated to cost $1.6 billion, while the cheques heading to Canadians who made $150,000 or less last year, is set to cost $4.7 billion. Blanchet said he was "fascinated" at the NDP’s initial support of the Liberal plan, and criticized the procedural hoops through which MPs may have to jump to get the bill passed. "My problem with this, is that the people who need the most this money, are not the people who will receive access to this money," Blanchet said in English. In an interview on CTV News Channel's Power Play on Monday, Public Services and Procurement Minister Jean-Yves Duclos said the Liberals are "certainly open to working with the opposition parties," to find a path forward. "We cannot do anything for Canadians unless another opposition party supports us... We'll obviously need to have a conversation with the NDP and other opposition parties," he told host Vassy Kapelos. Last week, Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre called the proposed tax relief measures a "two-month temporary tax trick," and said he wanted to see the legislative specifics and speak with his caucus this week, before announcing if they'd support it. Today in question period, Poilievre said Singh is "giving Canadians whiplash with his latest flip flop and the flop on the flip." Filibuster persists amid acrimony This holiday relief package was seen as a potential way for the Liberals to secure the NDP's support in helping break what's now been a several-weeks-long stalemate in the House of Commons, even temporarily. Now, that prospect appears to also be in question, with no end in sight to the Conservative-led filibuster of a privilege debate that's persisted since September. When asked Monday, Singh was unable to clarify where things stood procedurally, after vowing last week his party would get behind a programming motion to expedite the passage of the package through all stages within one sitting, before resuming the standoff. MPs have been seized with a discussion about their work being impeded by Trudeau's government not turning over documents related to misspending by a now-defunct green technology fund. Addressing an issue that had been simmering for months, House of Commons Speaker Greg Fergus ruled on Sept. 26 that the Liberals did not fully comply with a House order seeking materials related to a Sustainable Development Technology Canada program the Conservatives are calling a "green slush fund." This opened the ability for the Official Opposition to demand the Liberals hand over unredacted copies to the RCMP and advance a priority motion to — as the House Speaker suggested, given the extraordinary circumstances — have the issue studied at the Procedure and House Affairs Committee. Deliberations on the proposal take precedence over most other House business and have essentially seized the Commons since. "Parliament is not functioning right now," Freeland said Monday. "We're in a minority in Parliament. We do not control it." The Liberals have taken the stance that passing this paperwork on to police would set a dangerous precedent and be an abuse of Parliament's power. Last week, another tranche of 29,000 pages was turned over, but with redactions. This was not enough to satisfy the Conservatives, who keep talking out the clock, preventing the motion from coming to a vote. They stated that if the government wants to get back to business, they need to be transparent. And, waiting in the wings, is a second privilege motion seeking to find Liberal MP and former minister Randy Boissonnault’s ex-business partner in contempt of Parliament, which would also have to be disposed of in order for ordinary order of business to resume. Speaker warns of nearing deadlines Beyond preventing government legislation from advancing, the procedural standoff is having knock-on effects on other key elements of parliamentary business. Specifically, the House of Commons is cutting it close when it comes to having time to deal with the supplementary estimates, and the remaining "supply" days — or opposition days, as they're more commonly called. Last Thursday, Speaker Fergus warned MPs that the rules do require them to make certain financial approvals and deal with related business within the next few weeks, and implored parliamentarians to find a path forward. This means both Treasury Board President Anita Anand's recently tabled supplementary estimates — which seeks to have MP sign off on additional spending for certain departments and programs for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2025 — as well as the outstanding opposition days, need to be delt with by Dec. 10. "As we get closer to the end of the current supply period, the chair wishes to encourage the House leaders to keep these various principles in mind," Fergus said. " I am confident that they can find ways to reconcile these important responsibilities." There are four outstanding opposition days to be called in the current supply cycle. These allotted days are designed to allow opposition parties to "present its grievances." Without approval to flow funds, some federal agencies could face a financial shortfall and could lead to a U.S.-style shutdown in the spring if the standoff persisted. Some parliamentary observers have speculated that a prolonged inability for the government to pass spending measures could in effect signal they've lost the confidence needed to keep this Parliament alive.

Thanksgiving has come and gone, and the playoff race in the NFL surges on. The Sporting News has a fresh batch of DFS sleepers and value plays for you, to help you dominate your DraftKings , FanDuel , and SuperDraft tournaments this weekend. The No. 1 key to success in daily fantasy: identifying value. You won't win any DFS jackpots if you don't get the most bang for your buck during lineup construction. Finding a balance between proven weekly studs and high-value sleepers is crucial, just like mixing in some good cheap gifts with your kids' big-money presents. For years, this column has shined a light on the undervalued gems each week on DraftKings, FanDuel, and now SuperDraft. Anyone can spot the elite DFS stars, but it's the sleepers and value plays that separate lineups from the crowd and start making you some real holiday bonus money. MORE NFL WEEK 14: Best bets and top props | Odds, lines, totals Throughout the season, we highlight our biggest hits from the previous week to prove the effectiveness of our strategies. Let's take a look at our list of successes from last week, with each player's Week 13 salaries as well as their final DraftKings points production. POS. PLAYER WEEK 12 GAME SALARY POINTS QB Russell Wilson Steelers at Bengals $5,700 30.9 QB Anthony Richardson Colts at Patriots $5,500 23.2 QB Drake Maye Patriots vs. Colts $5,600 20.4 RB Bucky Irving Buccaneers at Panthers $5,800 27.5 RB Chase Brown Bengals vs. Steelers $6,200 19.0 WR Ladd McConkey Chargers at Falcons $6,100 23.7 WR Marvin Harrison Jr. Cardinals at Vikings $6,000 17.0 TE Pat Freiermuth Steelers at Bengals $3,500 18.8 TE Hunter Henry Patriots vs. Colts $4,200 14.5 DST New York Jets vs. Seahawks $2,500 16.0 Bing, bang, boom! That's a tidy list of 10 hits — some of which were big hits — in a week that was full of busts and no-name splurges. Wilson, Irving, McConkey, and Freiermuth were actually our featured sleepers for their respective positions, so excuse us while we pat ourselves on the back. Let's carry over the momentum and unveil our Week 14 DFS sleepers and value picks on DraftKings , FanDuel , and SuperDraft . We'll highlight the most affordable high-value options at each position, as well as their listed cost or scoring boost on each DFS site. WEEK 14 FANTASY FOOTBALL ROSTER MANAGEMENT ADVICE Lessons Learned | Stock Watch | Sleepers | Busts | Usage Report Best NFL DFS sleepers for Week 14: Quarterback Sam Darnold, Vikings vs. Falcons (DK: $6,100 | FD: $7,600 | SD: 1.3x) Save for a lackluster season-opener against the Giants and a couple down games against the Jets and Jaguars, Darnold has been really frickin' good this season. He has averaged 18.6 points per game, and he's eclipsed 24 DK points in two of the past three weeks. Now Darnold gets to face a mediocre Falcons D that has surrendered the 7th-most DK points to QBs this season. He also gets to duel with Kirk Cousins, the QB he replaced when Cousins departed Minnesota for Atlanta. This should be a heck of a shootout, and we have Darnold finishing among the top five QBs in Week 14. Other QBs whose Week 14 values exceed their price tags: Kyler Murray, Cardinals vs. Seahawks (DK: $6,000 | FD: $7,800 | SD: 1.3x) Russell Wilson, Steelers vs. Browns (DK: $5,900 | FD: $7,700 | SD: 1.3x) Will Levis, Titans vs. Jaguars (DK: $5,000 | FD: $6,600 | SD: 1.5x) WEEK 14 FANTASY FOOTBALL RANKINGS QBs | RBs | WRs | TEs | D/ST | Kickers Best NFL DFS sleepers for Week 14: Running back Isaac Guerendo, 49ers vs. Bears (DK: $5,400 | FD: $5,200 | SD: 1.5x) Just because it's an easy sleeper pick doesn't mean it's not the best one. Guerendo is the hottest waiver-wire commodity in season-long redraft leagues, and he should be the No. 1 value play in your DFS contests. Kyle Shanahan's offense has a "next man up" mentality, and IG is now the man. He's not just the man because of the opportunity and the system, either. Guerendo has averaged 4.9 yards per carry this season, and he's caught 5-of-6 targets for 19 yards. He's even scored a pair of rushing TDs despite only carrying the ball 42 times on the campaign. Hitch your wagons now! Other strong Week 14 RB values (bold prices indicate volatilty) : Tyrone Tracy Jr., Giants vs. Saints (DK: $5,800 | FD: $6,600 | SD: 1.45x) Tony Pollard, Titans vs. Jaguars (DK: $6,400 | FD: $7,500 | SD: 1.25x) Jerome Ford, Browns at Steelers (DK: $4,900 | FD: $5,400 | SD: 1.6x) Zach Charbonnet, Seahawks at Cardinals (DK: $4,800 | FD: $5,300 | SD: 1.65x) WEEK 14 WAIVER WIRE ADVICE Full waiver wire list & FAAB recommendations | Top players to target Best NFL DFS sleepers for Week 14: Wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Seahawks at Cardinals (DK: $6,300 | FD: $8,000 | SD: 1.2x) This is more of a value play on DK, which supports a PPR system, than it is on FD with its half-PPR format. JSN has taken over DK Metcalf's role as the No. 1 receiver on the Seahawks, who still pass the ball a ton. And with both these teams battling for the NFC West title, this could be a shootout. Look at what Smith-Njigba has done over the past five games: 33 catches, 510 yards, three touchdowns. His floor has become 12 points, but his ceiling — as we already saw in Week 9 against the Rams — is a 40-burger. Let's all channel our inner Teenage Mutant Smith-Njigba this weekend! Other strong Week 14 DFS values at WR: DJ Moore, Bears at 49ers (DK: $6,100 | FD: $6,600 | SD: 1.2x) Marvin Harrison Jr., Cardinals vs. Seahawks (DK: $6,000 | FD: $6,800 | SD: 1.2x) Calvin Ridley, Titans vs. Jaguars (DK: $5,700 | FD: $6,300 | SD: 1.25x) Jakobi Meyers, Raiders at Bucs (DK: $5,600 | FD: $6,700 | SD: 1.25x) Darnell Mooney, Falcons at Vikings (DK: $5,500 | FD: $5,900 | SD: 1.25x) Jordan Addison, Vikings vs. Falcons (DK: $5,300 | FD: $6,000 | SD: 1.3x) DK-only bargain buys: Nick Westbrook-Ikhine, Titans vs. Jaguars (DK: $4,700); Ray-Ray McCloud, Falcons at Vikings (DK: $4,500) MORE: Learn about the SuperDraft Jackpot | How to play DFS Best NFL DFS sleepers for Week 14: Tight end Cade Otton, Bucs vs. Raiders (DK: $4,400 | FD: $5,600 | SD: 1.35x) It's time for Cade to reign terror on the Raiders in this all-pirate clash. Otton has quietly been the TE8 in PPR formats this season, and he has a good chance to see a boost in targets with Chris Godwin on IR and Rachaad White's role getting minimized. Don't forget, Otton had a 3-week run earlier this season in which he scored 71.8 DK points! Now he faces the 3rd-most generous defense to TEs in fantasy!? Sign us up for the MotorCade, baby! More Week 14 TEs worth a look : T.J. Hockenson, Vikings vs. Falcons (DK: $4,300 | FD: $6,300 | SD: 1.45x) Pat Freiermuth, Steelers vs. Browns (DK: $3,800 | FD: $5,500 | SD: 1.55x) A bit pricy, but still a value: Jonnu Smith, Dolphins vs. Jets (DK: $5,300 | FD: $7,000 | SD: 1.2x) Best NFL DFS sleepers for Week 14: D/ST Tennessee Titans vs. Jaguars (DK: $2,800 | FD: $4,000) It feels gross capitalizing on the Jaguars' loss of Trevor Lawrence after the brutal hit he took in Week 13. But, at the same time, the NFL goes on, and we have to pick the best value options available to us if we expect to make money. The Jags with Mac Jones under center are the worst team in the NFL, and they'll face an underrated Titans pass-rush this weekend. Woof. Other decent D/ST plays for Week 14 : San Francisco 49ers vs. Bears (DK: $3,100 | FD: $4,600) New Orleans Saints at Giants (DK: $2,900 | FD: $4,400) If you purchase a product or register for an account through one of the links on our site, we may receive compensation.

Ibrahim: Leveraging Tech, Innovation For High-Quality Produce In Farming

On Jan. 2, I stepped off the treadmill gasping for breath and learned I’d flunked the test, but this failing grade could put a permanent period on my earthly life. Terror struck my heart at the thought of leaving my family behind even though my faith in God assured me peace and love awaited me on the other side. Fear is a terrific motivator. I gave up red meat, butter and high-fat foods, hoping my changes even at this late date might make a difference. Two months later, an Olympia cardiologist inserted a stent in an artery into my heart to increase blood flow around a 95 percent blockage. So as Thanksgiving approaches this year, I count my blessings as I do every year, but especially the blessing of still being here to celebrate with my cherished loved ones. After surviving an operation to insert a stent — perhaps routine for the cardiologist but seldom for the patient — I decided to take a hard look at my bucket list and quit putting off longed-for trips. My husband and I toured British Columbia and Alberta in August, an item on his list. I’m visiting the Panama Canal with my sister, crossing off a desire from my list. Last weekend, I sold books at the Elma Country Christmas Bazaar, sharing a table with fellow authors Sandy Crowell (author of “The Land Called Lewis” and “Water, Woods, and Prairies”) and Bill Lindstrom (who wrote “John Tornow: Victim or Villain? The untold story of the ‘Wildman of the Wynooche and Strait Press”). I visited with passersby, greeted old friends and thought how, despite contentious election seasons, we all have more in common than divides us. Sometimes, our favored candidate wins; other times, the one we liked loses. But life goes on. I liked a meme on Facebook before the election that stated: “Don’t lose friendships today over two people who don’t even know your name.” That’s so true, and it’s sad to see how fractured our divided nation has become. Families disagree. Friends no longer speak. Some on each side demonize those who hold different beliefs. Even in my own family, I’ve seen divisions over politics create tensions among people who love each other. A year ago, I spent a week in November in Los Cabos with my four sisters at an all-inclusive hotel. My eldest and youngest sisters have made the annual trip to Mexico with their husbands to celebrate their birthday: they were born on the same day, six years and 15 minutes apart. At one point, one of my sisters mentioned that Donald Trump might win election as president again. I threw out a quick quip: “Only if he steals the election.” When she stood and walked away, I realized my offhand comment offered partly in jest had offended her. I never want to destroy relationships over politics. I love my sisters and my brother too much to let differences in opinions separate us. The next day, all was fine. Just as the Bible promises that nothing can separate us from God’s love, we should let nothing separate us from our love for one another. Another Facebook meme offered wisdom: “Please don’t let the elephants and donkeys make you forget you belong to The Lamb!” Our faith, our family relationships, our friendships mean so much more than politics, even though, as my husband points out, voting decides who controls the government, which can adversely affect our lives. But it doesn’t need to destroy our relationships. While I counted my blessings over the weekend, I did what I often do: I picked up my camera and snapped photos. I love to chronicle life as I live it. In the past, before Facebook, my digital photos remained trapped in my camera or on my memory card, never to be printed. But the advent of Facebook allowed me to share those photos with friends online in more than 4,000 albums. What’s most fun, and a reminder of the blessings in my life, is when Facebook pops up with a photo from a year ago, five years ago, a decade ago. Often it’s a photo of one of my children when they were younger. Other times it’s a precious friend who has passed away, and I think how grateful I am to have known them. That happened with a photo of the late Margaret Shields of Centralia and Harold Borovec of Chehalis who were walking together in the Lewis County Historical Museum. My life is richer from having known them both. So as we prepare to celebrate Thanksgiving, it’s time to set aside political differences and simply enjoy being in the presence of loved ones. If you have time, pull out your camera and snap photos to capture those precious memories. Open the video or audio recorder on your phone and ask questions about the past (I have lists of oral history questions on my website at www.chaptersoflife.com under Help for Historians). Treasure your family and your shared past and preserve it for future generations. And count your blessings. ••• Julie McDonald, a personal historian from Toledo, may be reached at memoirs@chaptersoflife.com.An individual reported missing in the backcountry near Princeton hunkered down overnight before being found safe on Sunday, Nov. 24. The Penticton and District Search and Rescue team was called to provide mutual aid for the Princeton team after Princeton SAR spent Saturday night searching for the missing person. The conditions were reported to be dangerously cool overnight. As PenSAR's team members readied to deploy to the search in the air and on the ground, the missing person was found safe and uninjured. "Thanks to the hard work of Princeton SAR who searched all night, and the smart actions of the subject for remaining in their vehicle given the frigid temps, the search had a happy conclusion this morning," PenSAR wrote in a post to social media. The search and rescue team is warning that snow and winter conditions are now present, particularly in backcountry areas. PenSAR urges any backcountry explorers to ensure they are adequately prepared with emergency and recovery supplies, including extra food, water, warm layers and an SOS device, as well as items like tracks and chains for vehicles.

IPSWICH, England (Reuters) -Crystal Palace eked out a 1-0 victory at Ipswich Town, with Jean-Philippe Mateta capitalising on a slip from his marker to score the winner just before the hour mark in Tuesday’s Premier League clash. The French striker broke free in the 59th minute, as Ipswich’s Jacob Greaves lost his footing, before lifting the ball over keeper Arijanet Muric. Palace are 16th in the table with 12 points, while Ipswich are second-to-bottom with nine points. It was a first away win of the league campaign for Palace, while the hosts are still waiting for their first victory at Portman Road since winning promotion. “Very pleased with the result. It was not about performing brilliantly. We expected a big fight and it was a big fight,” Palace manager Oliver Glasner told Match of The Day. “I told the players we had to expect a big fight today and it was a big fight, especially at the end. We expected them to play man to man, big pressure. “We’re pleased with our defensive performance, we didn’t allow them a chance from open play, just one from a set piece in the first half and one in the second half.” As the largely uneventful first half drew to a close, Palace began to take control, pressing Ipswich back after what had been an even contest. Palace’s Eberechi Eze nearly made the breakthrough just before halftime, firing his shot under pressure at Muric’s legs. The hosts created an opportunity minutes later when Jack Clarke connected with a corner at the near the post, but Palace goalkeeper Dean Henderson kept out his header. Ipswich pressed forward after Mateta’s goal and went close in the final minutes when Greaves’s header hit the post, with no Ipswich players on hand to capitalise on the rebound. “We can do better than we did tonight. I don’t think that performance was on the level of some of our home performances. We didn’t hit our best level tonight,” Ipswich manager Kieran McKenna said. “We started the second half really well, looked like we were going to grow into the game, we knew we had some good impact off the bench. Then we gave away a poor goal from our point of view. That really decides the game.” (Reporting by Tommy Lund in GdanskEditing by Toby Davis) Disclaimer: This report is auto generated from the Reuters news service.
