PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Jalen Hurts may sit out a potential NFC East clincher against Dallas because of the lingering effects of a concussion. The Eagles could also just rest Hurts to play it safe — even if he’s medically cleared ahead of Sunday’s game — and protect their franchise QB from additional injury over the final two games. Eagles coach Nick Sirianni kept quiet this week on which QB will start Sunday, in large part, of course, because of the head injury suffered by Hurts in last week’s loss to Washington that forced him into the concussion protocol. The issue was complicated by backup Kenny Pickett’s rib injury suffered in relief of Hurts in his first real game competition in nearly a year. Tanner McKee, the third-string QB, could move into a backup role — or maybe even get the start against the Cowboys. Philadelphia’s starting quarterback situation has surged past Saquon Barkley’s chase at Eric Dickerson’s season rushing record as the most intriguing talking point in the final two games. The Eagles (12-3) appear certain to win the division title — they’re two games ahead of Washington (10-5) — and a No. 2 seed in the conference no matter the quarterback headed into the playoffs. Even with an unsettled QB spot, the Eagles are are still 7 1/2-point home favorites to beat division rival Dallas, per BetMGM Sportsbook. Sirianni appreciated that quarterback depth has been a strength for the Eagles. “We feel good about that room,” he said. So why risk Hurts against the Cowboys? There’s little reason to make Hurts play only a week after absorbing a pair of blows to the head and the extra week off — maybe two if the finale against the Giants is truly meaningless — could add to his recovery time ahead of a home playoff game. The Eagles were burned in a similar situation last season when Hurts and star wide receiver A.J. Brown were both injured in the final game against the Giants with little at stake. With both players hampered by unnecessary injuries, the Eagles were dumped the next week by Tampa Bay in the NFC wild-card playoff game. The Eagles have options if Hurts is inactive. Pickett was 14 of 24 for 143 yards in relief, throwing a touchdown pass to Brown and an interception. Pickett, a first-round pick out of Pitt in 2022, went 14-10 as a starter for the Steelers before he was traded to the Eagles in the offseason. McKee was the Eagles’ 2023 sixth-round pick out of Stanford. The 6-foot-6, 231-pound quarterback has yet to take a snap in a regular-season game. He’s mostly used in practice on the scout team or in developmental periods — at best, he’ll stay late after practice to get some reps in with the top receivers. “Every week, every opportunity, it’s knowing it could be my shot, my chance,” McKee said. He could finally get that shot against Dallas. Rolling with Rush With the Cowboys out of playoff contention, the questions persist for coach Mike McCarthy about bypassing Cooper Rush for a look at Trey Lance before both QBs hit free agency. McCarthy’s answer hasn’t wavered: Rush gives Dallas the best chance to win. Rush is 4-3 since Dak Prescott’s season-ending hamstring tear after going 5-1 over two previous stints as an injury replacement. That’s 9-4 total. Half the losses came in both of Rush’s starts against Eagles – the last of five games filling in during the 2022 season and the first game this season. “The mindset is to win,” McCarthy said. “We’re going to Philadelphia to win the game.” Barkley watch Barkley leads the NFL with 1,838 yards rushing for the season through 15 games. He still needs two big outings in the final games of the season against Dallas and the New York Giants to top Dickerson and his 2,105 yards for the Los Angeles Rams in 1984. Barkley is 268 yards away from passing Dickerson for the season mark and 162 shy from becoming the ninth player in NFL history with 2,000 yards rushing in a season. He ran for only 66 yards in the first game this season against Dallas. Dallas ranks 28th in the NFL in rushing defense, surrendering 135.9 yards per contest. Philadelphia, behind Barkley’s stellar play, tops the league at 187.9 yards per game on the ground. The Eagles have already have set a team record for yards rushing in a season with 2,818, and they are within four rushing touchdowns of tying the club’s single-season mark of 32, set in 2022. Barkley needs four more rushing touchdowns to tie LeSean McCoy’s Eagles record, set in 2011 and just 33 yards from scrimmage to break McCoy’s mark of 2,146 set in 2013. Seeing double digits Star Dallas edge rusher Micah Parsons needs half a sack to reach double digits in each of his first four seasons despite missing four games with a high ankle sprain, the first injury absence of his career.

The state-of-the-art research center solidifies Mount Sinai Health System’s leadership in delivering patient care through groundbreaking innovation and technology. As one example, Mount Sinai was among the first academic medical centers in the United States to build and operate a supercomputer, named "Minerva," which went into service in 2013. The interdisciplinary center will combine artificial intelligence with data science and genomics in a location at the center of the campus of The Mount Sinai Hospital in Manhattan. The facility will initially house approximately 40 Principal Investigators, alongside 250 graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, computer scientists, and support staff. Supported by a generous gift from Hamilton Evans "Tony" James, Executive Vice Chairman of the Manhattan-based investment firm Blackstone, and his wife, Amabel, the 12-story, 65,000-square-foot facility will be housed in a repurposed Mount Sinai building at 3 East 101st Street. “By integrating AI technology across genomics, imaging, pathology, electronic health records, and beyond, Mount Sinai is revolutionizing doctors’ capacity to diagnose and treat patients, reshaping the future of health care. Mount Sinai has been at the forefront of AI research and development in health care, and now we stand as one of the first medical schools to establish a dedicated AI research center,” says Eric Nestler, MD, PhD, Director of the Friedman Brain Institute, Dean for Academic and Scientific Affairs and Nash Family Professor in the Nash Family Department of Neuroscience at Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai and Chief Scientific Officer at Mount Sinai Health System . “As AI technology is evolving rapidly, this moment is critical for maintaining leadership in digital health. The Hamilton and Amabel James Center for Artificial Intelligence and Human Health will cultivate an optimal environment for researchers to deepen their understanding, diagnosis, and treatment of human diseases—including the most debilitating—and to advance overall health and well-being.” “If we want to use artificial intelligence for the greater good and make significant progress in health care, investing in AI research and development within academic institutions is essential,” says Dennis S. Charney, MD, Anne and Joel Ehrenkranz Dean at Icahn Mount Sinai and President for Academic Affairs of the Mount Sinai Health System . “While large tech companies possess substantial funding and resources to access high-performance equipment, they lack access to a health care system, limiting their progress in the field. This new AI research center at Icahn Mount Sinai will yield transformative discoveries in human health by the integration of research and data, fostering collaboration across multiple programs under one roof.” To construct the new AI center, Mount Sinai modernized an existing building to meet contemporary standards, including updating the facade to align with the aesthetic of other campus buildings. Within the 12 floors of the center, eight will be dedicated to Mount Sinai’s AI initiatives. These core facilities include: The Windreich Department of AI and Human Health , which focuses on creating an “AI Fabric” that will integrate machine learning and AI-driven decision-making throughout the Health System’s eight hospitals. The Hasso Plattner Institute for Digital Health at Mount Sinai (HPI•MS), formed in 2019 through a collaboration with the Hasso Plattner Institute for Digital Engineering in Germany, which aims to enhance capabilities in data science, biomedical and digital engineering, machine learning, AI, and wearable technology. In 2024, the Hasso Plattner Foundation renewed its generous support of HPI•MS for the next five years. The Institute for Genomic Health and Division of Medical Genetics , which leads the effort to harness the power of genomic discovery to develop new ways to prevent and treat diseases, including cancers, heart problems, and genetic disorders. The Biomedical Engineering and Imaging Institute , focused on the use of multimodality imaging for brain, heart, and cancer research, along with research in nanomedicine for precision imaging and drug delivery. The Institute for Personalized Medicine , which launched the human genome sequencing research project called the Mount Sinai Million Health Discoveries Program, which aims to enroll 1 million racially and ethnically diverse patients, advance precision medicine research, and improve patient care. About Mount Sinai's Windreich Department of AI and Human Health Mount Sinai's Windreich Department of AI and Human Health, the first such department in a U.S. medical school, is committed to advancing and optimizing artificial intelligence and human health. The department is dedicated to harnessing the power of leading-edge tools to revolutionize scientific research and discovery.

If a taxpayer is facing any issues or difficulty in comprehending any issue with his/her income tax return (ITR) or TDS certificate or any other income tax related issues, then they have an option to lodge a complaint with the tax department. This complaint is lodged through the grievance redressal mechanism. However, considering the fact that the number of grievances is very high, and they vary in nature, not all income tax officers might be well equipped to solve all types of grievances. For example: For example: A centralised processing centre (CPC) officer can't handle grievances related to tax demand or section 220 notices, because an assessing officer (AO) commissioner of income tax as the case may handle this. To give taxpayers clarity about which officer to approach or which department head to send the grievance complaint, the income tax department released a document in the last week of November 2024. This document highlights which income tax officers can handle which type of grievances and gives you clarity about whom to approach. Experts say knowing this information ensures a faster resolution of grievances. Which tax officer can help you solve what type of grievances This document by the income tax department clarifies the right process of filing complaints with the correct officer, such as submitting TDS-related grievances or issues related to Form 26AS to CPC(TDS) rather than the Assessing Officer, etc. "This eliminates confusion, reduces the likelihood of misfiling, and ensures a faster resolution of grievances," says Chartered Accountant Rahul Singh,Senior Manager, Advisory & Research, Taxmann.

Grievances related to portal registration, profile issues, password, ITR/Form verification, e-proceedings, Instant PAN via Aadhaar, or income tax related cybercrime should be lodged here. 2 Assessing Officer (AO) Assessing Officers (AOs) handle taxpayer assessments and ITR queries. Lodge grievances related to refunds, rectifications, demand corrections, appeal orders, PAN applications, or other pending matters with this department. 3 CPC (TDS) This relates to the e-TDS scheme. Lodge grievances about portal access, TDS statement processing, defaults, Challan/BIN corrections, Form 26AS, Form 16/27D, TDS refunds, and TDS on property sales here. 4 CPC (ITR) It handles Income Tax Returns processing. Grievances related to ITR-V status, intimations or notices under section 139 (9) or 143(1), unreceived refunds, tax processing issues, social media complaints or feedback should be lodged here. 5 DIT (Systems) It manages IT systems for the Income Tax Department.

Source: Income Tax Department A different circular released on November 4, 2024, by the income tax department had information on amended monetary limits and powers of tax officers in respect of waiver of interest paid or payable under section 220 of the Income Tax Act. In this circular the tax department has mentioned which tax officer has the authority to waive this interest. Aniket Kulkarni, Chartered Accountant says, "The clear specification of authorities' vis-a-vis monetary limits for reduction or waiver of interest aim to provide clarity to taxpayers. The taxpayer now has a clear understanding of whom to approach with an application for reduction or waiver of interest." Income Tax Circular Source: Income Tax Department circular "While the conditions for grating reduction or waiver of interest were already existing in the provision, division of responsibilities to different categories of officers is expected to fasten the process of disposal of applications. However, subjectivity in applying conditions like what constitutes genuine hardship may differ from authority to authority," says Kulkarni. Here's what else has changed in respect to grievance redressal in 2024 Chartered Accountant (Dr.) Suresh Surana says many changes were made in respect to the grievance redressal mechanism of Income Tax. "The Income Tax Department of India has introduced several enhancements to its grievance redress mechanism in 2024, aimed at improving taxpayer experience and ensuring efficient resolution of issues. With the launch of the e-Nivaran and CPGRAMS system, taxpayers now have a more efficient way to address their concerns, track progress, and escalate unresolved issues as needed," says Surana. According to Surana, here's a summary of what's changed and new in the grievance redressal process: Unified Grievance Management System - e-Nivaran and Centralised Public Grievance Redress and Monitoring System (CPGRAMS) The Income Tax Department has established a Unified Grievance Management system called e-Nivaran and CPGRAMS to address taxpayers' issues more effectively. E-Nivaran allows you to submit grievances online related to various income tax matters, including filing issues, refunds, and processing delays whereas CPGRAMS allows you to lodge grievances to the public authorities on any subject related to service delivery. E-Nivaran - Submission Process Two Submission Methods: Taxpayers can submit grievances through two primary methods: Registered Users: Individuals with registration on the e-filing portal can log in and submit grievances directly through their accounts. Unregistered Users: Even individuals without registration can file grievances by accessing the grievance section on the Income Tax portal. Income Tax Grievance Resolution Timeline The Income Tax Department aims to resolve grievances within 8 weeks from the date of receipt of the grievance. "However, many grievances are typically addressed within one month," says Surana. For urgent matters originating from high-level offices (like the Prime Minister's or Finance Minister's Office), resolutions are stated to be prioritised with a turnaround time of 21 days. Income Tax Grievance Status Tracking Taxpayers can easily track the status of their submitted grievances through the e-Nivaran system. This feature enhances transparency and allows taxpayers to stay informed about the progress of their complaints. Income Tax Grievance Escalation Mechanism If a grievance is not resolved satisfactorily, you have the option to escalate the complaints through the e-Nivaran platform. This escalation process is designed to ensure that unresolved issues receive further attention from higher authorities of the Income Tax Department. Surana says: "The E-Nivaran scheme enables taxpayers to submit grievances online and receive a Unique Grievance ID for tracking their cases. This digital approach reduces administrative delays and paperwork. Taxpayers receive automated acknowledgments and updates regarding their grievances. This ensures they are informed about the status of their complaints without needing to follow up repeatedly. The grievance redressal mechanisms are now standardised across departments, which helps in maintaining consistency in how complaints are handled. It is important to highlight that the document by the Income Tax Department (table shown above) provides comprehensive information on the appropriate authority to which grievances should be reported, depending on the specific nature of the issue. This ensures that individuals can effectively direct their concerns to the relevant body equipped to handle their particular type of grievance, facilitating a more efficient resolution process."Our community members are treated to special offers, promotions and adverts from us and our partners.

More info The net worth of this year's Strictly Come Dancing stars provides fans with a glimpse into the staggering wealth of their favourite celebs - with some truly eye-popping figures. As we near the finals, only seven contestants remain, with eight already having bid farewell to the dance floor. Among those still vying for the Glitterball Trophy are Love Island Tasha Ghouri , who secured this year's first 40 score from the judges, JLS star JB Gill and TV personality Pete Wicks . But among those still left in the competition, who appears to have amassed the highest net worth thanks to their careers outside of Strictly? Let's take a closer look... Chris McCausland was reportedly worth £800,000 in 2021, according to Net Worth Post. However, his profile has risen significantly since then, thanks to appearances on shows like Have I Got News For You and Live At The Apollo, as well as a radio slot on Radio 4. His Channel 4 documentary Wonders of the World I Can't See aired in 2023, and he recently launched his ITV Saturday morning programme, The Chris McCausland Show. Plus, Chris, who is Strictly's first blind contestant, will embark on an extensive UK tour in 2025 with his show Yonks! - which has added dozens of new dates due to demand from his Strictly fame, reports the Mirror . JB Gill, known for his days with JLS, has transformed into a businessman with an estimated net worth of a cool £3 million. Despite the band parting ways back in 2013, JB has been clever with his finances, and he shared with the Mail's Me and My Money segment in 2021 his strategic moves in real estate. He's invested in buy-to-let properties and made a profit from selling them on. JB and his wife, Chloe Tangney, have also invested heavily in their turkey farming business, now enjoying life in their gorgeous farmhouse valued at £1.7 million—a property they snagged for £500,000 less than the asking price. Opening up to the publication, he revealed he's nearly finished paying off the mortgage. Moreover, recalling his pop glory days to the Mirror, JB said: "When I was with JLS, we were paid five-figure and six-figure sums for private gigs where we would typically do sets lasting no more than 20 minutes." Tasha Ghouri of Love Island fame is also raking in the money, quickly accruing a vast wealth. After dazzling viewers on the 2022 series of the hit ITV reality show, The Sun claimed she had built a £1 million net worth after landing contracts with high-profile names like Mugler. Not to mention, she's stepped into the role of eBay's inaugural second-hand fashion ambassador and has collaborated with Cadbury Fingers and the National Deaf Children's Society. Using her newfound fame to her advantage, she bagged the role of L'Oreal's brand ambassador and signed lucrative deals with LookFantastic and Simmi Shoes. In just two years, she's amassed a jaw-dropping fortune of £2 million, thanks in part to brand collaborations and her massive social media following. TOWIE's Pete Wicks is another high earner who has capitalised on his fame with a series of side gigs after leaving the reality show. The Strictly favourite now boasts an estimated net worth of £3 million, with him and Made In Chelsea's Sam Thompson reportedly pulling in £15,000 a month from their Staying Relevant podcast alone. EastEnders star Jamie Borthwick, 30, has spent most of his time filming for the BBC soap, and his exact net worth remains unconfirmed. However, considering that the highest-paid actors from the square earn about £300,000 per year, raking in approximately £2,000 per episode, it's safe to say he's doing alright. While he may not be on par with the likes of Phil Mitchell actor Steve McFadden and Adam Woodyatt's Ian Beale, it's likely he has some voiceover gigs to supplement his income. According to Closer magazine, his biggest earning potential could come from his Instagram following, with his 322,000 fans potentially earning him around £1,200 per sponsored post. As for Montell Douglas, not much is known about her net worth. That being said, she's accomplished a lot throughout her esteemed career, including performing as Fire on Gladiators and holding the British record for the 100 metre sprint. She also competed in the Winter Olympics for bobsleigh. Sarah Hadland keeps her private life and finances under wraps, but she's certainly making waves with her dancing. Miranda star Sarah has been paired up with the talented Vito Coppola on Strictly, and she's learnt loads about bouncing back during their intense training sessions. Opening up on Strictly's sister show It Takes Two, she shared: "When you start something like this, you sort of in your head think, 'Right, I think it will be a bit like this and there'll be a bit of unknown'. But I think the journey I've been on, I really wasn't expecting. I know everyone talks about the 'J' word, but I thought, 'I don't think I'll be going on a journey. I think I know I can dance to this amount and that's how it will go'. And it was just a real shocker."7 Steps to Help Keep Your Small Business Cyber Safe This Holiday SeasonIf you purchase an independently reviewed product or service through a link on our website, Rolling Stone may receive an affiliate commission.
