'I don't know how I pulled it off': country dux scrapes into dream uni coursePhiladelphia Eagles star Saquon Barkley became the ninth player in NFL history to rush for 2,000 yards in a season on Sunday. Barkley entered the game against the visiting Dallas Cowboys needing 162 yards to join the exclusive club. He reached the milestone with a 23-yard run with about 11 minutes remaining in the fourth quarter and Philadelphia leading 34-7. That gave him 167 for the day on 31 carries and 2,005 for the season. With one game remaining, Barkley has a chance to break Eric Dickerson's NFL single-season record of 2,105 yards, set during a 16-game season in 1984. In addition to Dickerson, the others to rush for 2,000 yards are Adrian Peterson, Jamal Lewis, Barry Sanders, Derrick Henry, Terrell Davis, Chris Johnson and O.J. Simpson. With the Eagles locked into the No. 2 seed in the NFC, it's unclear whether Barkley will play in next weekend's regular-season finale against his former team, the New York Giants. Barkley also broke LeSean McCoy's 2013 franchise record of 2,146 all-purpose yards. --Field Level Media
Huawei Says Goodbye to Android: A Bold Move Towards Technological IndependenceMartin Lewis reveals how you could save hundreds of pounds on broadband every year as he urges customers to act ahead of Black Friday The British money saving expert said customers could save thousands READ MORE: Martin Lewis urges people that now is the 'crucial moment to act' to boost your savings By ALICE WADE Published: 23:01 GMT, 26 November 2024 | Updated: 23:05 GMT, 26 November 2024 e-mail View comments Martin Lewis has revealed how the Black Friday sales could be the key to saving hundreds of pounds on broadband every year. The British money saving expert, 52, said customers could substantially reduce their bills, during a segment on Tuesday's episode of his live money show on ITV . With Black Friday rapidly approaching, Martin implored customers who are out of a contract or near the end of one to use comparison websites to pursue the best deals and potentially save hundreds on monthly bills every year. He said previous years have offered 'dud' Black Friday deals, but claims that 2024 has some strong contenders for saving cash. The finance guru advised that these can be found by using comparison websites and by haggling with broadband providers. During the programme, he asked: 'Are Black Friday broadband deals worth it this year?' before answering with an enthusiastic 'yes'. 'Some years they're duds. This year I am seeing some of the cheapest prices we've seen for broadband in 2024 so it is worth a look,' he encouraged. 'Seven million people are out of a contract and therefore free to switch and could save.' Martin Lewis has revealed how the Black Friday sales could be the key to saving hundreds of pounds on broadband every year Martin explained that customers could save hundreds or even thousands every year if they use current Black Friday savings to score the best deal. He said: 'It is hundreds of pounds. You're paying £40 to £60 a month and most people who are out of contracts for relatively slow speeds. These prices are a fraction. 'Again, the best deals are by comparison sites. Why? Because if firms give you the best deals and incentives direct, they have to offer them to existing customers. 'If they give them via comparison sites, they don't so they put them on comparison sites direct.' The finance guru went on to give some examples of savings viewers could make, saying: 'On various sites, there's Virgin deals up to 264mbps for between £17 and £19 per month all in. ' Vodafone up to 500mbps for £18 to £25 per month, 150-500mbps. Those are the types of prices we're seeing at the moment but it depends on which site you go to. 'All of these are incentive based deals. What do I mean? Have a £100 Amazon voucher, have £100 cash back and I've factored that into the price over the contract so you won't see a price that cheap but once you factor in the cash back, that reduces the price.' During the segment, one viewer wrote in to the show to share how they had saved more than £100 a month on their monthly outgoings, including broadband. The British money saving expert, 52, said customers could substantially reduce their broadband bills Unlike previous years, Martin claims that 2024's Black Friday broadband deals are worth it With Black Friday rapidly approaching, Martin implored customers who are out of a contract or near the end of one to use comparison websites to pursue the best deals Read More Martin Lewis urges people that now is the 'crucial moment to act' to boost your savings The viewer's comment read: 'I took your advice when renewing my broadband and TV contract. 'I managed to get all television, sport, movie, Netflix , internet and phone currently costing £186 for £66 for 24 months. I shall be haggling again when this runs out.' This gave them a saving of £120 per month and therefore £1,440 over the course of a 12 month period. Over two years, this means a whopping saving of nearly £3,000 all in. Martin also encouraged customers to ensure they haggle with broadband providers to ensure they get the best deals possible. 'The whole point on haggling means you need to bench mark what's out there what other people will sell you for so again, another really good price if you're nearly out of contract or out of contract. 'And remember, if they won't give you the deal that you want, try and get through to disconnections. Don't be mean, don't be rude, it's not the call centres fault. 'Disconnections, otherwise known as customer retentions, it's where they give you the best deals,' he concluded. It comes after Martin revealed whether premium bonds are really worth it - or if you're better investing your cash elsewhere. He shared the insights on a recent episode of The Martin Lewis Podcast . Martin previously explained that while more than 22 million people in the UK have premium bonds, some people could actually make smarter financial choices by avoiding them. Picture: Stock image Martin explained that while more than 22 million people in the UK have premium bonds, some people could actually make smarter financial choices by avoiding them altogether. With the UK holding more than £100billion in premium bonds, not everyone will be able to rake in the profits they hope for. In fact, Martin explained that if you're only planning to invest a small amount into the bonds, then other forms of savings are likely a 'better bet'. 'It is an incredibly popular form of savings,' he explained, adding that the capital you invest into the bonds is safe. But after saying that they're a tempting option due to the winning process and being tax-free, he added: 'For those people only putting a small amount in and who don't pay tax on savings - which is a lot of people - premium bonds are a bad bet. 'I mean, there will always be someone who beats the odds and has more than typical luck but they're a bad bet.'

Joe Burrow threw three touchdown passes to Tee Higgins, including a game-winning scoring strike with 1:07 left in overtime, to give the host Cincinnati Bengals an electrifying 30-24 win over the Denver Broncos on Saturday. Cade York could have given Cincinnati (8-8) the win with 2:43 to go in the extra session, but his 33-yard field-goal attempt hit the left upright. The Bengals' defense buckled down, though, forcing Denver to go three-and-out to get Burrow, Higgins and the rest of the offense back out on the field. Cincinnati proceeded to go 63 yards in five plays, with Higgins' 3-yard TD catch giving the Bengals their fourth straight victory. Higgins finished with 11 catches for 131 yards. Marvin Mims Jr. forced overtime by hauling in a 25-yard score on fourth-and-1 to draw the Broncos (9-7) even at 24 with eight seconds left in regulation. Burrow had put Cincinnati in front by plunging into the end zone from 1 yard out just 1:21 earlier. Burrow completed 39 of 49 passes for 412 yards and the three touchdowns while Ja'Marr Chase had nine catches for 102 yards and set a single-season franchise record for receptions. He now has 117. Tight end Mike Gesicki played a key role in the Cincinnati passing game, grabbing a season-high 10 catches for 86 yards. Rams 13, Cardinals 9 Cornerback Ahkello Witherspoon intercepted a pass in the end zone with 37 seconds left to preserve Los Angeles' win over Arizona in Inglewood, Calif. Witherspoon made a diving catch after the ball bounced high off the helmet of Arizona tight end Trey McBride on the pass attempt by Kyler Murray. The Rams (10-6), who lead the NFC West by one game, have won five straight, while the Cardinals (7-9) have lost five of their last six. Los Angeles could clinch a playoff berth on Sunday depending on the outcome of other games. Matthew Stafford threw for 189 yards while completing 17 of 32 pass attempts without a touchdown or interception. Puka Nacua finished with 10 receptions for 129 yards. Murray was 33 of 48 for 321 yards with a touchdown and two interceptions. McBride made 12 catches for 123 yards to surpass 1,000 yards for the first time in his three NFL seasons. Chargers 40, Patriots 7 Justin Herbert passed for 281 yards and a season-high three touchdowns and Los Angeles clinched an AFC playoff berth with a dominating victory over New England in Foxborough, Mass. Ladd McConkey caught eight passes for 94 yards and two touchdowns and Derwin James had two sacks and a fumble recovery for the Chargers (10-6), who are playoff-bound in Jim Harbaugh's first season as coach. Derius Davis also had a scoring catch, J.K. Dobbins rushed for 76 yards and a touchdown on 19 carries and Cameron Dicker booted four field goals.Herbert completed 26 of 38 passes as the Chargers improved to 3-12 all-time in Foxborough, including playoffs. Drake Maye completed 12 of 22 passes for 117 yards and one touchdown for New England (3-13), which lost its sixth consecutive game. DeMario Douglas caught a scoring pass for the Patriots. -Field Level Media
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. — Two weeks before Election Day, activists from across the country gathered for an online rally heralding the historic number of state ballot initiatives seeking to change the way people vote. Hopes were high that voters would ditch traditional partisan primaries and embrace ballots with more candidate choices. Instead, the election reform movement lost almost everywhere it appeared on a statewide ballot. “It turns out, in retrospect, we weren’t yet ready for prime time,” said John Opdycke, president of the advocacy group Open Primaries, which organized the rally. In Arizona, Colorado, Idaho, Missouri, Montana, Nevada, Oregon and South Dakota — a mixture of red, blue and purple states — voters rejected either ranked choice voting, open primaries or a combination of both. The open primary proposals sought to place candidates of all parties on the same ballot, with a certain number of top finishers advancing to the general election. Under ranked choice voting, people can vote for multiple candidates in order of preference. If no one receives a majority of first place votes, then candidates who receive the fewest votes are eliminated and their votes redistributed to people’s next choices. Election reform advocates raised about $110 million for the statewide ballot measures, vastly outpacing their opponents, according to an Associated Press analysis of campaign finance figures that could grow even larger as post-election reports are filed. Still, their promotional push wasn’t enough to persuade most voters. “While Americans are frustrated with politics, I think most Americans are just fine with the traditional way of voting,” said Trent England, executive director of Save Our States, which opposes ranked choice voting. Advocates for alternative election methods had thought momentum was on their side after Alaska voters narrowly approved a combination of open primaries and ranked choice voting in 2020. Then voters in Nevada — where initiatives proposing constitutional amendments require approval in two consecutive elections — gave first-round approval to a similar measure in 2022. But Nevada voters reversed course this year. In Alaska, an attempt this year to repeal open primaries and ranked choice voting appears to have fallen just short of passing, garnering 49.9% support in results released Wednesday. Final results are expected to be certified Nov. 30. In addition to Alaska, versions of ranked choice voting already exist in Maine ‘s federal elections and about 50 counties or cities. Voters in Washington, D.C., and the Chicago suburb of Oak Park, Illinois, both approved ranked choice voting this November. And voters in the Minneapolis suburb of Bloomington, Minnesota, reaffirmed their use of it. Data suggests that ranked choice voting rarely results in different outcomes than traditional elections won by candidates receiving a plurality, but not majority, of support. The AP analyzed nearly 150 races this fall in 16 jurisdictions where ranked choice voting is authorized, ranging from the Board of Assessors elections in the Village of Arden, Delaware, to the presidential elections in Alaska and Maine. The ranking system was needed in just 30% of those cases, because the rest were won by candidates receiving a majority of the initial votes. Nationwide, just three candidates who initially trailed in first-place votes ended up winning after ranked vote tabulations — one for Portland City Council and two for the San Francisco Board of Supervisors. In San Francisco, two progressive candidates campaigned together, encouraging voters to rank them No. 1 and 2. Initially, they fell behind a moderate candidate who would have won a traditional election. But after six rounds of rankings, one of the progressive candidates emerged the victor when the other was eliminated and his supporters’ votes were redistributed to her. Supporters of ranked choice voting point to that as a success, because it avoided two similar candidates splitting the vote and both losing. “It’s kind of like a pressure valve – you don’t always need it, but when you do, you really do,” said Deb Otis, director of research and policy at FairVote, which advocates for ranked choice voting. In Portland, Oregon, voters used ranked choice voting for the first time this November in their mayoral and City Council elections, even as Oregon voters simultaneously rejected a measure to implement it for federal and statewide offices. Political outsider Keith Wilson, who led Portland’s 19-person mayoral field with about one-third of the initial vote, ultimately won election after 19 rounds of ranked tabulations. One City Council seat took at least 30 rounds to decide. But not everyone participated in the new voting method. About one-fifth of Portland voters skipped the council races, and about one-in-seven voters left the mayoral election blank. Opponents of ranked choice voting contend that some people find it confusing and don’t vote in ranked races. Academic research also has cast doubt on the benefits of ranked choice voting, said Larry Jacobs, a professor of politics at the University of Minnesota. Fewer Black voters tend to rank candidates than white voters, he said, and there is little evidence that ranked choice voting reduces political polarization or negative campaigning. “I think the tide for ranked choice voting is turning away from it,” Jacobs said. Groups that heavily financed this year’s election reform initiatives aren’t giving up, but may retool their approach. Supporters are considering whether to separate the efforts to end partisan primaries from those to adopt ranked choice voting, and whether to focus more on incremental changes that state legislatures can make instead of on high-stakes initiatives to amend state constitutions. Opdycke said some of this year’s initiatives may have launched prematurely, counting on ads to persuade voters without first cultivating enough grassroots support. “I think there’s a deeper appreciation for the kind of brick work, foundation-building, conversation creation that has to go on as a precursor of launching a formal campaign,” he said. Unite America, which spent around $70 million this year in its effort to end partisan primaries, is analyzing voter surveys and focus group results to help reshape its approach. “The question is not if we should continue that effort,” Unite America Executive Director Nick Troiano said, “but how are we ultimately going to succeed at it?”

Powering Canada's Future: Securing jobs, investments, and savings by building more affordable and reliable clean electricity
Elected in the aftermath of the Watergate scandal that brought down President Richard Nixon, Jimmy Carter, the former governor of Georgia, ran as a Washington outsider and rose to the White House with a strong sense of morality, an engineer's mind and a progressive, moderate approach to governing. Carter, who died Sunday at the age of 100 , after going into hospice care in February 2023 at his home in Plains, Georgia, served only a single term in office but devoted the decades that followed to bettering the lives of countless people across the U.S. and around the world. He faced massive crises during his presidency — sky-high oil prices, double-digit interest rates and inflation, and the Iran hostage crisis — and his failure to effectively address them resulted in his failure to win reelection in 1980. He also had some major accomplishments, including the negotiation of a peace deal between Egypt and Israel. But it is his widely lauded post-presidency, characterized by tireless peace and humanitarian efforts, that is likely to be his most enduring legacy. After leaving office in 1981, Carter became an important diplomatic figure, securing the release of political prisoners in Nicaragua in 1986 and of American Aijalon Gomes from North Korea in 2010. He served as a negotiator with North Korea during the Clinton administration, and even offered his services to then-President Trump in talks with North Korea. Along with his wife, Rosalynn Carter — who died at age 96 on Nov. 19, 2023 — he founded the Carter Center in 1982, a nonprofit human rights organization that took on as its broad mission the alleviation of human suffering. Through the work of the Carter Center, he devoted himself to preventing and resolving global conflicts, promoting freedom and democracy, and improving the health of millions of people around the world. Among other initiatives, the Carter Center oversaw efforts to conduct free and fair elections in dozens of countries in the developing world, and helped lead global efforts to eliminate Guinea worm disease , which spread through unfiltered drinking water and once sickened millions across Africa. Carter was honored with the Nobel Peace Prize in 2002 for his work in advancing democracy and human rights through the Carter Center. "We have transformed the lives of, I would say, millions of people, primarily in the poorest and most destitute and forgotten communities in the world," he told CBS News ' Rita Braver in a 2006 interview. The Carters also worked for decades with Habitat for Humanity to build homes for those in need. Carter first became involved in 1984 and remained active building homes with the organization for decades. The day after he fell in his Plains, Georgia, home in October 2019 , leaving him with a black eye and stitches at the age of 95 , Carter still traveled to Tennessee to volunteer for Habitat for Humanity. He and Rosalynn sponsored the Carter Work Project at Habitat for Humanity for over 30 years. According to the organization , the Carters have worked "alongside 104,000 volunteers in 14 countries to build, renovate and repair 4,390 homes." A devout Christian, the former president also made an impact in his local community as a teacher. He taught Sunday School at Maranatha Baptist Church in Plains until nearly the end of his life. He also taught at Emory University in Atlanta for nearly 40 years. Carter acknowledged that his post-presidential activities had earned him higher regard than he'd experienced in office. "Certainly my reputation has been better in the post-presidential years than maybe in the White House," he said in that 2006 interview . "But I think that when people look at back on what we did in the White House, I think there's a lot there of justifiable pride." Throughout his post-presidency, he was never afraid to speak out when troubled by policies of those who succeeded him in the White House. He was an early and vocal critic of the war in Iraq begun under President George W. Bush, and he opposed the Obama administration's use of drone strikes to target suspected terrorists. He criticized Trump for " exacerbating " racial tensions and being " careless with the truth ," telling CBS News' John Dickerson in 2018, "I think I went through my campaign and my presidency without ever lying to the people or making a deliberately false statement, and I think that would be a very worthwhile thing to reinsert into politics these days." He added that he wished Trump well "and I pray for him." Carter joined fellow past presidents in condemning the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection at the U.S. Capitol, and he marked the date one year later by writing : "I now fear that what we have fought so hard to achieve globally — the right to free, fair elections, unhindered by strongman politicians who seek nothing more than to grow their own power — has become dangerously fragile at home. ... For American democracy to endure, we must demand that our leaders and candidates uphold the ideals of freedom and adhere to high standards of conduct." Carter wrote 33 books, including memoirs about his life and career, as well as books on other topics like faith and aging. He and Rosalynn Carter were married for 77 years, and were known for their devotion to one another. They are survived by their four children and many grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
