According to Adam Schefter , the Lions have waived LB Kwon Alexander . Schefter adds Detroit would like to sign Alexander back to the practice squad if he’s not claimed by another team. Alexander, 30, is a former fourth-round pick of the Buccaneers back in 2015. He played out the final year of his four-year, $2,758,320 contract before agreeing to a four-year contract worth $54 million with the 49ers in 2019. He was traded to the Saints midseason in 2020 for LB Kiko Alonso and a conditional fifth-round pick. He tore his Achilles late in the season and was released. Alexander returned to the Saints on a one-year deal before joining the Jets for the 2022 season. He then caught on with the Steelers back in July of 2023 and signed with Denver’s practice squad in September 2024. The Lions signed him away a few weeks ago. In 2024, Alexander has appeared in three games for the Broncos and two for the Lions, recording 12 total tackles, one forced fumble and one recovery.

Walmart just launched a massive after-Christmas sale - here are 27 deals I'd buyThe United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs projects 305 million people will require humanitarian assistance in 2025. In its newly released 2025 Global Humanitarian Overview (GHO), OCHA describes the drivers of this unprecedented need, including conflict and violence that have led to the intensification of needs. The global population living in areas fully controlled or contested by armed groups is estimated to have increased to 210 million people . Protracted conflict, compounded with natural shocks such as flooding, and political intractability, have driven displacement and worsened human suffering in several contexts, with some of the worst cases in Myanmar, Gaza, Sudan, and Ukraine. Access constraints, funding shortages, and attacks on health and aid workers have left vulnerable populations in hard-to-reach areas exposed to ongoing violence and resource shortages during their time of greatest need. 60 million people across these four conflicts were unable to receive basic assistance due to physical, bureaucratic, and political barriers, including the degradation of norms regarding the provision of humanitarian aid under international humanitarian law. Funding has fallen short of meeting these needs. These four contexts alone represent a significant proportion of the global humanitarian need, while 2024’s global humanitarian appeal stands at only 43 percent funded . Amid escalating access constraints, humanitarian appeals for Gaza, Myanmar, Sudan, and Ukraine will likely remain severely underfunded despite obligations to protect the delivery of humanitarian aid under international humanitarian law. As 2025 approaches, humanitarian organizations anticipate additional challenges in funding aid delivery, including from major donors such as Germany and the United States. Humanitarian organizations and donors will face difficult choices as they work to balance needs with the funding available. This discussion brings together humanitarian experts, policy leaders, and field practitioners to reflect on the landscape of humanitarian need, particularly in conflict settings, in 2024 and look forward to which areas need attention in 2025. This event is made possible through the generous support of USAID.
1. A miraculous veggie chopper with four interchangeable blades that slice and chop your fruits and veggies for you. It cuts down your food prep time by a LOT, making it a huge relief for when you have guests coming over and you didn't know making stir fry could take that long. Check out a TikTok of the veggie chopper in action. Promising review: "Makes life so much easier. I can't imagine chopping onions or bell peppers by hand anymore, and it does so much more. We used to have a Prepworks chopper which was a similar idea, but you had to press so hard to chop, and it broke after not too long. This one requires very little effort to cut through the food and it has a generous container. " — Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $29.97 (available in four styles and four colors). 2. Or a manual food chopper in case your knife skills are a bit underwhelming. This'll quickly get you a chopped-up concoction of fruits and veggies. Plus, it's fun to use! Just throw in your veggie chunks, place the lid on, pull the cord, and watch the blades do all the hard work. It's also dishwasher-safe (top rack only!) so cleanup is super simple. Promising review: "This is great for cutting lots of veggies super fast . All you have to do is rough chop down your veggies toss them in and give it four to five pulls for perfectly diced chunks for salsa or toppings on eggs or tacos. It comes with a handy cover too so all you have to do is rinse the blade and toss the container in the fridge or cooler." — Kevin B. Get it from Amazon for $18.19+ (available in three colors). 3. An electric air fryer , which uses "AirCrisp" technology instead of oil, making it a healthier way of frying your food without sacrificing the flavor. And it's super easy, too! Just load the fryer basket and use one of the eight presets to take the guesswork out of your food prep. Use it to make fan faves like fries, spicy chicken wings, and fried vegetables. Healthier and easier? Sign👏me👏up👏. Promising review: "My husband surprised me with this fryer cause he said it was the deal of the day and couldn't pass up. I was hesitant at first because it is a very large piece of equipment and we have limited counter space. But once I started using this, I couldn't stop! I love it so much! It really does get things crispy! I have cooked chicken wings, tacos, zucchini fries, bacon, and more in it, and everything comes out great! You do have to play around with the temp and timing of stuff but once you get the hang of it, it's easy peasy! The digital buttons make it easy and it's nice to have different options instead of just off/on like with some fryers. And it actually isn't too heavy so I can move it on and off my counter easy, too. I think it's a great way to crisp food without turning on my hot oven in the summer! Would definitely recommend!" — willmatic84 Get it from Amazon for $99.99 (available in four colors and three sizes). 4. Plus, a magnetic air fryer cheat sheet that'll let your inner foodie experiment with different delicious concoctions while giving you the peace of mind that everything will still come out fully cooked and safe to eat. Plus, this is a *lot* easier than having to look it up every single time. Promising review: "Bought an air fryer several months ago which I haven't used a whole lot because it came with only a few recipes but not enough info on other items to cook. The Lotteli cheat sheet gives you cooking times and temperatures for a lot of your common everyday foods in a magnetized easy-to-read, two-sheet combo that fills in where the air fryer pamphlet that came with the unit leaves out. I also bought an air fryer cookbook but this only comes with specific recipes, whereas the cheat sheet fills in the void for quick basic needs. Very happy with this purchase! 😁" — B. Frank Smith Get it from Amazon for $7.97+ (available in two colors and two bundles). 5. Some slow cooker liners if the only thing stopping you from making that delicious chili is the cleanup afterward. 🫠 With these babies, your cleanup time is reduced to seconds! Promising review: "I am so happy I decided to purchase these crockpot liners. I love cooking with my slow cooker! Do I love cleaning it afterwards? NO! This is such a simple step to take when cooking. Using this product saves you so much time from not having to clean out the crockpot after. You simply lift out the liner and throw it away when you are done. No fuss no muss! It is so nice to finish your day with a slow-cooked meal and not have to worry about scrubbing it clean. Highly recommend!" — Thomas Casey Get box of six liners from Amazon for $3.48 . 6. A nonstick microwave pasta cooker so you don't have to subject yourself to the patience it takes to wait around for water to boil. This cooker will satisfy your spaghetti craving in just 12–13 minutes! You'll be slurpin' up those yummy noodles like you're in Lady and the Tramp in no time. Promising review: "I don't want to get all gushy over a pasta maker, but man...I really love this gizmo! I like spaghetti — either with normal Prego-type sauce or sometimes just with butter and Romano cheese sprinkled on. But I'm lazy and impatient, and don't like things that take a long time to make, with a bunch of steps, and a big clean up afterwards. The Fasta Pasta is perfect for me. I get the exact amount of correctly-measured spaghetti; it's faster than boiling water in a big pot then having to watch and stir the pasta; the pasta comes out perfectly cooked every time; and the cleanup is a snap." — Smilin Sam Get it from Amazon for $16.99 . 7. Plus, some jarred truffle-infused pasta sauce that'll work its magic to transform any easy, reliable pantry meal into something straight out of a fancy restaurant. Here's what BuzzFeed Shopping editor Elizabeth Lilly says about it: "The Pomodoro sauce is hearty without any spice. And the Arrabbiata sauce delivers the heat. I've tried both of these flavors of Truff pasta sauce and they are SO good. It likely goes without saying but if you don't like truffles, you won't like this. It is VERY truffle-y. I'm also a big fan of the Truff hot sauce from the same brand. Most of the time I make a meal of whatever pasta and jarred sauce I happen to have as a last resort, but I look forward to eating pasta with this delish sauce — even if it's just noodles and sauce with not even a sprinkle of Parm to dress it up! It'll cost ya more than Prego or other store-bought sauces. But it's worth it as a treat!" Get two jars from Amazon for $29.99 . 8. A set of nonstick, heat-safe sheet pan dividers so you can meal prep like a pro. This lets you cook several ingredients at once — all on a single sheet pan! Check out a TikTok of the nonstick sheet pan dividers in action. Promising review: "Brilliant. 100000% Recommend them! It lets me separate veggies by how long they take to cook so they are all ready at the same time and nothing is over/undercooked. I love these cheat sheets. They are a great tool for my kitchen. " — yule Get a set of four from Amazon for $32.99 . 9. *Reusable* toaster bags for when you're in the mood for a melty grilled cheese — aka always. This way, you don't have to fire up that stovetop *or* catch your toaster on fire. (It was one time, okay?) These are also a fan favorite for families with members who have Celiac disease or other food sensitivities. Promising review: "Unless you are a 'foodie' and need to grill your sandwiches, this bag is a great way to get a warm sandwich — and if you have cheese on it, the cheese will melt. Just make your sandwich and put it in the bag. Put the bag in your toaster and you have a great sandwich! Its so easy, and when I am done, I just rinse the bag under the faucet. Great for kids who love grilled cheese without the fuss of 'grilling'!" — joycetv Get a pack of four from Amazon for $4.50 (also available as a pack of six). 10. A Souper Cubes freezer tray so that dinner's taken care of for a few nights *and* so your leftovers stay tasting just as fresh as when you first made them!

Plus, their products are BPA-free, dishwasher-safe, and it have fill lines on the side of the compartments for half and full cups. Promising reviews: "I saw this on TikTok and had to give it a try. It does not disappoint. Perfect way to freeze portion sized soups. Also helps me to not waste unused broth. Easy to use, store and clean. Once your item is frozen, just pop out, and store in freezer bags." — Meghan Swain "LOVE LOVE LOVE. My freezer is so much more organized now. Gone are the days of having to defrost an entire bag of chicken broth for one cup for a recipe. I now have perfectly portioned 1/2-cup and 1-cup blocks ready to go. They fit easily in freezer bags, take up less space, and make me incredibly happy. There was a lot of attention to detail put into the design and I particularly appreciate the wire inside the rim that holds everything steady — no more worrying about spilling all the liquid on the way to the freezer. Just a fantastic product all around. I purchased this and a cheaper version from another manufacturer at the same time but returned the other product. This one is definitely worth the added cost." — Kate Get it from Amazon for $19.95 (also available in three colors and as a pack of two). 11. A mini food processor that will amaze you with how effortlessly it chops, slices, and shreds all kinds of ingredients — especially if you always dread the amount of time it takes to prep your meal. With this, you'll be dippin' into that salsa in no time flat. Promising review: "Great little food processor! I've made pesto and hummus with it so far, and I love it. I live alone, so the size is perfect for my needs. Makes several servings of whatever I'm making and comes with a few recipes in the instruction manual to get started." — Peter Tracy Get it from Amazon for $39.95 (available in four colors). 12. And a microwavable panini press , because it's no secret that those grill marks make any old sandwich extraaa yummy. This'll let you make your own paninis, grilled cheeses, and even meats with *just* a microwave. Pro tip: You can even use it make leftovers taste like a freshly made meal. Promising reviews: “My granddaughter loves this. She cannot have a toaster in her college dorm but this lets her make toast, heat bagels, make grilled cheese sandwiches, etc. in her microwave.” — Carolynn Get it from Amazon for $32.99 . 13. A cute lil' mini rice cooker that is designed to get you perfect, hot rice — aka the most versatile dish base ever — in less than 20 minutes! Reviewers rave about how consistent the end results are, so you'll never end up burning your rice and having to make that emergency Thai food order ever again 🤷♀️. Plus, it's got PFOA-free nonstick coating, makes up to two cups of rice, and includes a rice measuring cup, serving spatula, and recipe book. Promising reviews: "I love this rice cooker. I've used it a dozen times. It cooks rice so fast. I use the small cup they provide, fill the rice to the top, and then add two of the same small cups of water. Hit the cook button and go on to do other things. When it's done it's on warm. I don't add any butter or salt, the rice is cooked perfectly. The pot is nonstick, so very easy to clean up . Highly recommend." — DRG "I wasn't expecting much for such a low-priced appliance. I'm glad I gambled on it — what a surprise that this cute little rice cooker performs exactly as it's advertised. It cooks rice perfectly, keeps it warm for as long as you want, and cleanup is a breeze!!!! It's so little that at first you can't believe it could make so much. Definitely get this if you're cooking for one or two." — Julie S. Get it from Amazon for $21.95+ (available in five colors). 14. Pre-made simmer sauces — just dump this on your chicken breast once it's cooked in the pan, and you'll give it a *seriously* elevated flavor. Plus, you wouldn't even know that these are actually keto- and Paleo-friendly! Here's what BuzzFeed Shopping editor Elizabeth Lilly says about it: "I've tried nearly all of these sauces and can vouch that they dress up all kinds of stuff. If you're craving some takeout food you're too lazy to replicate at home, some of these (especially the Thai Coconut Sauce that's shown here) will help you get some of that taste without buying a million ingredients." Promising review: "These sauces are magic. A high-end trick added to our meal prep. Really tasty options. We have been doing meal prep for quite a while and the salt and pepper meals were getting old. We tried to incorporate skillet sauces into our meals and tried all the brands out there. They were OK but not very healthy. When I saw these on Amazon, I had to try them (keto and Paleo certified) and they taste amazing. Now we have a different flavor each and every day and we can still keep the diet." — Fernando Pimentel Get a three-pack from Amazon for $15 (available in 16 flavor combos). 15. A crab spoon rest , a helpful lil' crustacean that'll lend a claw if you want to keep your spoon out of your stew without having to place your messy utensil on the counter.

A bottle of Mike's Hot Honey — seriously, this must be what had Winnie the Pooh in a chokehold. Add it to your favorite dishes (like pizza, wings, and tacos!) for that beautifully balanced "hint of sweet with a kick of spice" flavor. I've used this stuff and it is FANTASTIC. Just don't pour it in your morning tea! It's not that kind of honey. Promising review: "Saw someone try this in TikTok and knew I needed it. It’s so good and sweet and spicy. I love it on fried chicken and even pepperoni pizza. It’s delicious." — Tricia Check out BuzzFeed's review of Mike's Hot Honey for more info! Get it from Amazon for $12.98+ (also available in multipacks). 18.

No need — just add this tasty condiment to your instant cup o' noodles and it'll give it just the right amount of spice, making your quick dinner go from basic to elaborate just like that. Fly By Jing is an Asian woman-owned small business that makes sauces, seasonings, and dumplings featuring flavors from Sichuan. Here's what BuzzFeed contributor Brittany Ross says about it: "Ever since my sister introduced me to this life-changing condiment, I've slathered it on pretty much everything I could think of — from roasted vegetables and noodles to seafood and popcorn. It's got a kick, yes, and while I'm a big fan of spicy food, the thing I love most about this chili crisp is that it also has great flavor that doesn't get overpowered by the heat, which happens with so many other spicy sauces. That deep savory flavor comes from ingredients like fermented black bean, shallots, mushroom powder, ginger, and seaweed, so it's no wonder it's become my go-to pantry staple when I want to zhuzh up my dinner in a matter of seconds. PS: Some people even swear by it as an ice cream topping!" Get it from Amazon for $9.98+ (available in four sizes and two flavors). 19. A bottle of Bachan The Original Japanese Barbecue Sauce — a mouth-watering concoction of soy sauce, cane sugur, mirin, tomato, green onion, sea salt, organic rice vinegar, ginger, garlic, and toasted sesame oil that'll turn your plain white rice into anything *but* plain. Bachan is a Japanese-owned small business that makes this savory Japanese barbecue sauce. The name means "granny" in Japanese and founder, Justin Gill, incorporates the values and traditions his bachan passed down to him and hopes to continue them with his own family and in his business. Promising review: "Alright, I get that this sauce is a little pricey, but it seriously packs some incredible flavor. I use this sauce as a binder for salmon. Apply a coat to both sides, season it, and then smoke it. I’m tellin' ya... it’s perfect." — Mark Get a 17 oz. bottle from Amazon for $8.99 (check out more of the brand's flavors ). 20. A two-tier stackable steamer , aka your lil' sous chef here to take care of dinner for you while you commence your daily dose of TikTok scrolling. And for all my Japanese and Chinese cuisine lovers, this'll earn a special place in your heart. Dim sum, anyone? Promising review: "I love this steamer. I work full time and have recently joined Weight Watchers. I can make a meal in 15–20 minutes. It’s easy to use and easy to clean." — Marissa D. Get it from Amazon for $34.99 . 21. Or a mini steamer that'll make steaming frozen veggies as easy as popping them in the microwave. Promising review: "It works great so far. I just tried it to cook some fresh broccoli, carrots, and snow peas. It cooked them in less than four minutes. They turned out great!" — Camille Get it from Amazon for $14.08 . 22. A flavorful box of Goodles — if you're a mac 'n' cheese lover (aren't we all?), you're gonna want to try this. It's made with REAL cheese and even has some extra stuff in it, like protein and prebiotics. But TBH, the flavor alone is what'll get you hooked. 😍 Here's what BuzzFeed Shopping editor Elizabeth Lilly says about it: "I've tried all these varieties. My fave is the Mover & Shaker that's a mac 'n' cheese version of cacio e pepe (my fave kind of pasta). They're all super tasty and you can tell that they're more elevated than your standard boxed stuff. When it comes to pasta, normally I'm of the opinion that the cheesier, the better. And these pass that standard! Like, if I'm gonna eat a meal that's supposed to taste like cheese, it needs to taste like cheese. And these do — probably because these are made with *actual* cheese. That is unless you're trying out the vegan option that's made with cashew nut milk." Get it from Target for $3.29 each: Shella Good (aged white cheddar and shells), Cheddy Mac (creamy cheddar and macaroni), Twist My Parm (asiago and parmesan with spirals), Mover & Shaker (cacio e pepe-inspired), and Vegan is Believin' (plant-based white cheddar with spirals). 23. And a pack of Velveeta cheese sauce with a scrumptious flavor that would make people think you spent a while preparing it. But in reality, all you had to do was pour it into a bowl, microwave it, and then dump it over pasta. You could also just use it as a dip for some good ole tortilla chips. Promising review: "These have been great to use. Cooking for just one person isn't the easiest thing for me, but these portions have been great when I want mac 'n' cheese, nachos, or a small smothered burrito for one. I'm sure when it's camping time these will make it into my camping stash." — M. Cheatham Get a six-pack from Amazon for $6.56 (also available as a 24-pack). 24. A Betty Crocker countertop pizza maker for those extra tough days when you just want a slice from your fave local pizzeria to magically appear in front of you. This gets you pretty darn close! Promising review: "It came yesterday and I tried a pizza right away. The result is amazing. 🌟" — Z.Sule Get it from Amazon for $42.99+ (available in two sizes and three colors). 25. A pack of microwaveable Peacadillo in Salsa Verde taco filling that'll bring Taco Tuesday right to YOU. Made with green tomatillos, protein-rich peas, and serrano peppers, your future burrito bowls are about to be on another level. As a Mexican who grew up with my grandmother's cooking, this stuff tastes truly delicious and authentic. Plus, it's vegan, non-GMO, and gluten-free! SOMOS is a Mexican-founded brand that specializes in flavor-packed plant-based entrees with the convenience of microwave pouches. Here's what BuzzFeed Shopping editor Elizabeth Lilly says about it: "I've tried EVERYTHING in the SOMOS line after I was sent samples at launch. And then after I went through the samples, I bought a bunch of the product with my own money. Twice! And writing this reminds me that I need to do another order. This stuff is so so so good. And truly is just as easy as microwaving the pouch. I find that for me, I can do half a pouch of an entree and then half a pouch of a side (like cilantro lime white rice or Mexican brown rice ) in a bowl, then top it off with a little bit of hot sauce (it's already quite flavorful!) and some green onions. Bam, there's your filling meal." Promising review: "Love this stuff. I eat meat but am always looking for good plant-based options that are satisfying. I loved the cauliflower tinga as a base for tacos. I added some additional roasted veggies (but you don’t necessarily need them — the cauliflower is really tasty on it’s own). It's great with rice. This has no saturated fat. It’s a really high quality product — I felt good after eating it...not usually something I can say with prepared foods. What was really fantastic is that is was ready (hot) after ONE MINUTE in the microwave. This is a great weeknight solution when I need a quick and satisfying meal. Their salsas and chips are awesome, too!" — Midwest Reader Get a six-pack from Amazon for $19.67+ (available in six flavors). 26. A dishwasher-safe nonstick meat and potato masher , which will have you ditching your spatula when it comes to breaking up ground meat and other foods. It's got over 40,000 (!!!) 5-star reviews, and many people rave about how easy it is to use *and* clean! Promising review: "I saw this on TikTok and had to get it! It works exactly like it should, and you don’t really need a spatula when you’re cooking meat with it. It grinds the meat and helps to stir it :). It is dishwasher safe although it took me two washes. That’s most likely because my dishwasher sucks. But it is easy to keep clean." — ashley coogan Get it from Amazon for $6.99+ (available in two colors). 27. A trio lasagna pan perfect for folks with family members that have ~varying tastes~ (and now your kid is apparently vegan??). With this, you can make everyone's fave version of lasagna all at once. FYI, you can use these for brownies, blondies, and bread, too. This is also great for making several kinds of lasagna at once if you and other fam members have different preferences! Promising review : "I loved everything about this pan. It's versatile, I can put three different cake mixes in each well, or meat loaves, etc. I really love this pan! A very happy customer." — Lisa F. Get it from Amazon for $39.19 . 28. A StirMate automatic pot stirrer for those *extra* tough days that even make standing there and stirring a total dread. This'll make you feel like you've got an actual magic wand helping you multitask in the kitchen. Let it stir the contents of your pot while you focus on the next steps in your recipe! The device self-adjusts to fit pots from 6–12 inches in diameter and 3-9 inches in depth. The motor will stir for up to 13 hours per charge and then only takes 30 minutes to recharge. Promising review: "I love this device. It will slave over the stove, stirring your soups, sauces, and candies all day without a complaint or tiring. Now I cook things that I enjoyed serving and eating but hated all that stirring. No more burnt pots and ruined recipes due to under-stirring . It’s a little costly, but once you use it, you will never be without it. I may even buy another one to handle all of my stirring. This would also make a perfect gift." — Steve Bruss Get it from Amazon for $78.95 .

The judicial review comes a month after the same court forced Elon Musk's X platform to obey rulings aimed at battling online disinformation. That issue has taken on heat in recent days in Brazil, with federal police accusing far-right ex-president Jair Bolsonaro and allied officials of using social media disinformation as part of a 2022 "coup" plot against Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, then the country's president-elect. The alleged plot involved using online posts to undermine public trust in the electoral system to justify Bolsonaro holding onto the presidency after Lula defeated him at the polls. Bolsonaro says he is innocent. The Supreme Court's deliberations in the cases are not expected to be concluded until sometime next year. One key point it is looking at is whether social media platforms can be fined for illegal content posted by users. Another is whether the platforms should themselves be required to monitor and remove any illegal content without a prior court order to do so. The court's rulings will become precedents that will have to be applied generally to all social media platforms operating in Brazil. Brazil -- many of whose 216 million inhabitants are heavy users of WhatsApp and Facebook -- does not have legislation in that area. More from this section Global social media networks, however, already have to abide by laws in the EU against illegal online content, under the bloc's Digital Services Act (DSA), which could guide them in terms of Brazilian compliance. One of the Brazilian Supreme Court's judges, Alexandre de Moraes, in August ordered Musk's X be blocked across the country for failing to comply with a series of court orders against online disinformation. On October 9, the platform was allowed to resume activities after paying around $5 million in fines and deactivating the accounts of several Bolsonaro supporters accused of spreading disinformation and online hate speech. The court's presiding judge, Luis Roberto Barroso, told AFP that "digital platforms... open paths to disinformation, hate, deliberate lies and conspiracy theories." He added: "In the whole democratic world there are debates about protecting free speech without permitting everyone to fall into a pit of incivility." He pointed to the European Union's DSA as a form of regulation "that seeks a point of ideal equilibrium". Brazil, in his opinion, should carve out its own regulation "with a minimum of government intervention where it comes to freedom of thought, while preventing increased criminality and inciting violence." ffb/rmb/st

The Dallas Cowboys are shutting down CeeDee Lamb for the rest of the season after the star wideout played through a shoulder injury for nearly two months. Lamb initially sprained the AC joint in his right shoulder on Nov. 3 but has not missed any of the Cowboys' first 15 games this season. "Additional examinations and scans this week on CeeDee Lamb's shoulder have determined that his injury has now progressed to a point that he will be listed as ‘Out' for the remaining two games of the season," a team spokesperson said in a statement to media outlets. "He will undergo a process of treatment and rehabilitation for his shoulder, is not currently expected to require surgery and is projected to make a full recovery." The Cowboys (7-8), eliminated from playoff contention, face two division rivals to close the season. They visit the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday and will host the Washington Commanders in Week 18. Lamb, 25, hauled in 101 receptions for 1,194 yards and six touchdowns this season. It marked his fourth straight 1,000-yard season, and he may be selected to a fourth straight Pro Bowl for his efforts. Lamb signed a four-year, $136 million contract extension in August, covering the 2025-2028 seasons. --Field Level Media
JAMAICA, N.Y. , Dec. 13, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- The New Terminal One at John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) today announced that Turkish Airlines will begin operations at the new terminal when it opens in 2026. Turkish Airlines will also unveil a brand new, state-of-the-art lounge for its premium customers, launching the next phase of the award-winning airline's growth at its top U.S. gateway. The New Terminal One, set to be the largest international terminal in the United States , will offer best-in-class amenities and innovative technology for a transformational and efficient travel experience. The New Terminal One is a key component of the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey's $19 billion transformation of JFK Airport into a world-class gateway, which will include two new terminals, the modernization and expansion of two existing terminals, a new ground transportation center, and an entirely new, simplified roadway network. Turkish Airlines, which currently flies 19 times weekly from JFK Airport to its hub at Istanbul , providing seamless connections to its extensive global network, will continue to offer top-tier service from the new terminal. As part of its expansion in the JFK market, Turkish Airlines will open an 11,000-square-foot lounge in the New Terminal One – twice the size of the airline's lounge at the existing Terminal 1. The new lounge will feature premium amenities, expansive views of JFK Airport's airfield and provide direct boarding access to aircraft, offering unmatched convenience for Turkish Airlines' business class customers and top-tier frequent flyers.

A woman on Friday won a civil court damages claim against mixed martial arts fighter Conor McGregor over her allegation that he raped her in a Dublin hotel in 2018. UFC 310: MUHAMMAD VS RAKHMANOV | SUN 8 DEC 2PM AEDT | Order Now with Main Event on Kayo Sports. Main Event on Kayo Sports and Foxtel is the exclusive home of UFC Pay-Per-View. McGregor, 36, shook his head as the jury returned their verdict awarding damages of 248,603 euros ($A398,291) to Nikita Hand, who brought the case at Dublin’s High Court. The court was told that McGregor allegedly “brutally raped and battered” Hand in December 2018 but the Irish sports star claimed they had consensual sex. Speaking after the verdicts Hand, 35, told reporters: “I hope my story is a reminder that no matter how afraid you might be: Speak up, you have a voice and keep on fighting for justice.” She thanked her family including her daughter, Freya. “She has given me so much strength and courage over the last six years throughout this nightmare to keep on pushing forward for justice,” she added. “I want to show Freya and every other girl and boy that you can stand up for yourself if something happens to you -- no matter who the person is -- and justice will be served.” The standard of proof is lower in a civil case than a criminal one with the jury asked to decide the case on the balance of probabilities rather than beyond reasonable doubt. Although the jury found in Hand’s favour in connection with her accusation against McGregor, she lost an assault lawsuit against a second man. The court heard evidence over two weeks from witnesses, including Hand, who has no automatic right to anonymity in the case. Hand added that she had been “overwhelmed and touched by the support” she had received. “For every person who reached out to me -- a card, a letter, an email, everything -- it hasn’t gone unnoticed. Thank you, I really appreciate it so much,” she said. Irish national broadcaster RTE reported earlier this month that Hand had been “absolutely devastated and let down” after the Director of Public Prosecutions told her that they would not be prosecuting either McGregor or the second man over her allegations. She sought a review of the DPP’s decision, but it was upheld. Hand suggested that the DPP was not prosecuting because one of the suspects was a famous person, RTE reported. McGregor is one of the biggest stars in the history of the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) mixed martial arts circuit, formerly holding the featherweight and lightweight titles. The DPP’s office, however, said the director herself had reviewed the file personally but that the case was very complex and there was no reasonable prospect of a conviction for either man. In a statement on X, McGregor said he intended to appeal. “I am disappointed that the jury did not hear all the evidence that the DPP reviewed. I am with my family now, focused on my future,” he said. “Thank you to all my support worldwide,” he added. McGregor made headlines in November last year when he sent a series of social media posts during unrest in Ireland, criticising the government’s immigration policy.
