Late kickoff return TDs by Turpin and Thomas spark the Cowboys as they end their 5-game skid
The Minnesota Wild have come out strong this season, posting an impressive 13-3-4 record through 20 games. Their fast start has surprised many, including their own fans, especially after they missed the playoffs last year. With their current performance, they’re quickly making a statement and exceeding expectations. The team is also dealing with a few minor injuries to key players, including Kirill Kaprizov, Mats Zuccarello, and Joel Eriksson Ek. The good news is that all 3 are expected to be back soon, with Kaprizov potentially returning as soon as tonight. Buy Minnesota Wild stock now..? It’s pretty wild (no pun intended) that sportsbooks are still overlooking how solid the Minnesota Wild have been this season. Despite their strong performance, they’re sitting at 20/1 odds to win the Stanley Cup, which puts them 13th overall. How does that even make sense? The top sports books in the country, including DraftKings , FanDuel , and ESPN Bet , all have the Minnesota Wild listed at +2000 (20/1). Here’s a look at the teams currently ranked ahead of the Wild on the betting market. FLA Panthers: +800 EDM Oilers: +800 CAR Hurricanes: +800 DAL Stars: +900 NY Rangers: +1000 TOR Maple Leafs: +1100 COL Avalanche: +1200 NJ Devils: +1400 WPG Jets: +1400 VGK Golden Knights: +1800 VAN Canucks: +1800 TB Lightning: +1800 MIN Wild: +2000 DraftKings Out of the teams ranked ahead of the Minnesota Wild in the betting odds, only one is actually ahead of them in the current standings, the Winnipeg Jets. The Jets are sitting comfortably at 34 points, while the Wild are close behind with 30 points. For some reason, Vegas sees the Minnesota Wild as a non factor. Sure, their winning pace might slow down, but this team has already proven they’re legit. So far, they’ve shown they can beat anyone. Only time will tell if they can keep it up. With Vegas not being sold on the Minnesota Wild yet, that could work in your favor. If they keep up their winning ways, their odds are only going to drop as the season goes on. So, if you’re into betting, now might be the perfect time to grab them at a good value before those odds get tighter.

Unless stopped, he argued the statute “will silence the voices of over 170 million Americans here in the US and around the world on January 19th, 2025.” Though the case is squarely in the court system, its also possible the two companies might be thrown some sort of a lifeline by President-elect Donald Trump, who tried to ban TikTok during his first term but said during the presidential campaign that he is now against such action . The law, signed by President Joe Biden in April, was the culmination of a years-long saga in Washington over the short-form video-sharing app, which the government sees as a national security threat due to its connections to China. The U.S. has said it’s concerned about TikTok collecting vast swaths of user data, including sensitive information on viewing habits , that could fall into the hands of the Chinese government through coercion. Officials have also warned the proprietary algorithm that fuels what users see on the app is vulnerable to manipulation by Chinese authorities, who can use it to shape content on the platform in a way that’s difficult to detect — a concern mirrored by the European Union on Friday as it scrutinizes the video-sharing app’s role in the Romanian elections. TikTok, which sued the government over the law in May, has long denied it could be used by Beijing to spy on or manipulate Americans. Its attorneys have accurately pointed out that the U.S. hasn’t provided evidence to show that the company handed over user data to the Chinese government, or manipulated content for Beijing’s benefit in the U.S. They have also argued the law is predicated on future risks, which the Department of Justice has emphasized pointing in part to unspecified action it claims the two companies have taken in the past due to demands from the Chinese government. Friday’s ruling came after the appeals court panel, composed of two Republican and one Democrat appointed judges, heard oral arguments in September. In the hearing, which lasted more than two hours, the panel appeared to grapple with how TikTok’s foreign ownership affects its rights under the Constitution and how far the government could go to curtail potential influence from abroad on a foreign-owned platform. On Friday, all three of them denied TikTok’s petition. In the court's ruling, Ginsburg, a Republican appointee, rejected TikTok's main legal arguments against the law, including that the statute was an unlawful bill of attainder or a taking of property in violation of the Fifth Amendment. He also said the law did not violate the First Amendment because the government is not looking to "suppress content or require a certain mix of content” on TikTok. “Content on the platform could in principle remain unchanged after divestiture, and people in the United States would remain free to read and share as much PRC propaganda (or any other content) as they desire on TikTok or any other platform of their choosing,” Ginsburg wrote, using the abbreviation for the People’s Republic of China. Judge Sri Srinivasan, the chief judge on the court, issued a concurring opinion. TikTok’s lawsuit was consolidated with a second legal challenge brought by several content creators - for which the company is covering legal costs - as well as a third one filed on behalf of conservative creators who work with a nonprofit called BASED Politics Inc. Other organizations, including the Knight First Amendment Institute, had also filed amicus briefs supporting TikTok. “This is a deeply misguided ruling that reads important First Amendment precedents too narrowly and gives the government sweeping power to restrict Americans’ access to information, ideas, and media from abroad,” said Jameel Jaffer, the executive director of the organization. “We hope that the appeals court’s ruling won’t be the last word.” Meanwhile, on Capitol Hill, lawmakers who had pushed for the legislation celebrated the court's ruling. "I am optimistic that President Trump will facilitate an American takeover of TikTok to allow its continued use in the United States and I look forward to welcoming the app in America under new ownership,” said Republican Rep. John Moolenaar of Michigan, chairman of the House Select Committee on China. Democratic Rep. Raja Krishnamoorthi, who co-authored the law, said “it's time for ByteDance to accept” the law. To assuage concerns about the company’s owners, TikTok says it has invested more than $2 billion to bolster protections around U.S. user data. The company has also argued the government’s broader concerns could have been resolved in a draft agreement it provided the Biden administration more than two years ago during talks between the two sides. It has blamed the government for walking away from further negotiations on the agreement, which the Justice Department argues is insufficient. Attorneys for the two companies have claimed it’s impossible to divest the platform commercially and technologically. They also say any sale of TikTok without the coveted algorithm - the platform’s secret sauce that Chinese authorities would likely block under any divesture plan - would turn the U.S. version of TikTok into an island disconnected from other global content. Still, some investors, including Trump’s former Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin and billionaire Frank McCourt, have expressed interest in purchasing the platform. Both men said earlier this year that they were launching a consortium to purchase TikTok’s U.S. business. This week, a spokesperson for McCourt’s Project Liberty initiative, which aims to protect online privacy, said unnamed participants in their bid have made informal commitments of more than $20 billion in capital.
The Washington Employment Security Department has announced the Paid Family and Medical Leave 2025 premium rates and weekly benefit maximums. Beginning on January 1, 2025, the Washington Paid Family and Medical Leave Program’s total premium rate will increase to 0.92% from 0.74%. This rate is recalculated annually in October, based on contributions from premiums and benefits paid during the previous year. Employers must report each Washington employee’s total gross wages, not including tips. Premiums must be collected up to the Social Security cap, which will increase to $176,100 in 2025, to the Washington Employment Security Department. Once an employee meets the Social Security cap, employers must stop collecting premiums, but they must continue to report employee wages. Employers with 50 or more employees will pay at least 28.48% of the total premium, which will require employees to pay 71.52% of the premium. Employers with fewer than 50 employees are not required to pay the employer portion of the total premium but must collect the employee portion of the premium or pay it on their behalf. Employers with approved voluntary plans under this law should consult with employment counsel about possible modifications to the voluntary plans. Additionally, the maximum weekly benefit will be capped at $1,542.00 per week in 2025. Employers should notify employees that they will begin collecting the new rate on January 1, 2025. An updated employer toolkit, mandatory poster and paycheck insert are available in the Washington Employment Security Department’s Paid Leave Help Center .Fast fashion is everywhere – in just about every mall, in the feeds of influencers on social media promoting overconsumption, and in ads constantly popping up online. Its focus on the continual production of new clothing is marked by speedy fashion cycles that give it its name. Fast fashion is intended to quickly copy high-end designs, but with low-quality materials, resulting in poorly made clothing intended to be worn once or twice before being thrown away. One of fast fashion’s leading companies, Zara, has a mission to put clothes in stores 15 days after the initial design. Another, Shein, adds up to 2,000 new items to its website daily. While others in the fashion industry are working toward more sustainable clothing, fast fashion is focused on profit. The market’s value was estimated at about US$100 billion in 2022 and growing quickly. It’s a large part of the reason global clothing production doubled from 2000 to 2014. The big winners in this game are the corporations. The industry has a reputation for exploiting workers and for excessive pollution and extraordinary waste. Consumers are pulled into an unhealthy, spiraling pressure to buy more as cheap clothes fall apart fast. Fast fashion also has a growing impact on the global climate. It is responsible for an estimated 8% to 10% of global greenhouse gas emissions, and its emissions are projected to grow quickly as the industry expands. I teach courses that explore fast fashion and sustainability. The industry’s growth seems unstoppable – but a combination of legislation and willpower might just rein it in. Understanding the harm About 60% of fast-fashion items are made from synthetic textiles derived from plastics and chemicals that start their life as fossil fuels. When this synthetic clothing is laundered or thrown in landfills to decompose, it can release microplastics into the environment. Microplastics contain chemicals including phthalates and bisphenol A that can affect the health of humans and animals. Natural fibers have their own impacts on the environment. Growing cotton requires large quantities of water, and pesticides can run off from farmlands into streams, rivers and bays. Water is also used in chemically treating and dyeing textiles. A 2005 United Nations-led report on cotton’s water use estimated that, on average, a single cotton T-shirt requires about 700 gallons (2,650 liters) of water from crop to clothing rack, with about 300 gallons (1,135 liters) of that water used for irrigation. The chemicals used to process textiles for clothing for the fashion industry also contaminate wastewater with heavy metals, such as cadmium and lead, and toxic dyes. And that wastewater ends up in waterways in many countries, affecting the environment and wildlife. Fast fashion’s high output also creates literally mountains of waste. More than 90 million tons of textile waste ends up in landfills globally each year, by one estimate, adding to greenhouse gases as it slowly decomposes. Only a small percentage of discarded clothing is recycled. From fashionista to environmental guardian In many cultures, people’s self-perception is intimately connected to fashion choices, reflecting culture and alliances. The allure of buying new items comes from many sources. Influencers on social media play into FOMO – the fear of missing out. Cheap items can also lead to impulse buys. Research shows that shopping can also create a euphoric sense of happiness. However, fast fashion’s speed and marketing can also train consumers into “psychological obsolescence,” causing them to dislike purchases they previously enjoyed, so they quickly replace them with new purchases. Famous personalities may be helping to push back on this trend. Social media explodes when a first lady or Kate Middleton, the Duchess of York, wears an outfit more than once. The movement #30wearschallenge is starting with small steps, by urging consumers to plan to wear every piece of clothing they buy at least 30 times. Upcycling – turning old clothing into new clothing items – and buying sustainable and high-quality clothes that can last for years is being promoted by the United Nations and other organizations, including alliances in the fashion industry. Some influencers are also promoting more sustainable fashion brands. Research has shown that peer influence can be a powerful driver for making more sustainable choices. The largest market for fast fashion is Gen Z, ages 12 to 27, many of whom are also concerned about climate change and might reconsider their fast-fashion buys if they recognized the connections between fast fashion and environmental harm. Some governments are also taking steps to reduce waste from fashion and other consumer products. The European Union is developing requirements for clothing to last longer and prohibiting companies from throwing out unsold textiles and footwear. France has pending legislation that, if passed, would ban publicity for fast-fashion companies and their products, require them to post the environmental impact of their products, and levy fines for violations. Changes in consumer habits, new technologies and legislation can each help reduce demand for unsustainable fashion. The cost of cheap clothes worn a few times also adds up. Next time you buy clothing, think about the long-term value to you and the planet. Paula M Carbone is Professor of Clinical Education, University of Southern California.

A few of these matchups included No. 2 Ohio State versus No. 5 Indiana, No. 7 Alabama versus Oklahoma and No. 3 Texas versus Kentucky. While much of the attention is turned toward the powerhouse conferences, there was an interesting matchup down south. The UAB Blazers hosted the Rice Owls in Week 13, heading into matchup having won two games in the entire 2024 season. Despite the season struggles they played a phenomenal game, defeating Rice 40-14. Journalist and photographer Reid Scott posted a picture of the crowd at Protective Stadium on social media, mentioning that the Blazers had a great performance, but it didn't come with too many fireworks. Protective Stadium can accommodate around 42,000 fans. It's a relatively new venue, originally being built from 2020 to 2021 with around a $200 million investment. Blazers are balling out but no one is here to see it. Man... #UAB pic.twitter.com/yegu8JvZIR The Blazers were led by quarterback Jalen Kitna who posted two touchdowns and 174 yards, completing 18-of-23 pass attempts. Kitna received tremendous help from running back Lee Beebe, who record video game-like stats in Week 13. He produced two touchdowns and 161 yards on 17 carries. Matt Bush-Imagn Images While the Blazers secured the Week 13 victory, they've been struggling all season. With the win, UAB advanced to 3-8 on the season, snapping a two-game losing streak. They now hold a 2-5 record in the American Athletic Conference. UAB will look to build off their Week 13 win when they take on Charlotte next weekend. ESPN's Matchup Predictor is giving the Blazers a 43.5% chance to win the game in Week 14.

The Prime Minister used an op-ed in the Mail on Sunday to vow to “get to grips” with the cost of welfare after figures suggested more than four million people will be claiming long-term sickness support by the end of the decade. Work and Pensions Secretary Liz Kendall will announce a package of legislation next week designed to “get Britain working” amid Government concerns about the projected rise. Official forecasts published by her department this week show that the number of people claiming incapacity benefits is expected to climb from a pre-pandemic figure of around 2.5 million in 2019 to around 4.2 million in 2029. Last year there were just over three million claimants. The Prime Minister wrote: “In the coming months, Mail on Sunday readers will see even more sweeping changes. Because make no mistake, we will get to grips with the bulging benefits bill blighting our society. “Don’t get me wrong, we will crack down hard on anyone who tries to game the system, to tackle fraud so we can take cash straight from the banks of fraudsters. “There will be a zero-tolerance approach to these criminals. My pledge to Mail on Sunday readers is this: I will grip this problem once and for all.” Ms Kendall’s white paper is expected to include the placement of work coaches in mental health clinics and a “youth guarantee” aimed at ensuring those aged 18-21 are working or studying.
Shares of Surf Air Mobility Inc. (SRFM) surged as much as 7% in morning trade on Friday to hit an eight-month high of $6.41, building on its gain of 56% during the previous session that helped the stock make up for some of its year-to-date decline. The stock reversed most of its gains, trading 0.36% lower in mid-day trade on Friday. The uptick in Surf Air Mobility’s shares comes after the company announced that its board members purchased stock from the open market. If the stock had maintained its gains, it would have pared its year-to-date decline to under 50% — most of this fall came in April, when the stock fell by over 40% after the company received a notice of possible delisting from the New York Stock Exchange. Surf Air Mobility’s chairman, Carl Albert, purchased 14,500 shares, while co-founder and board member Sudhin Shahani purchased 17,237 shares. The aggregate transaction is valued at approximately $110,000. “We have near and midterm goals to increase value for our shareholders. We are firmly and financially committed to successful execution of our Transformation Plan,” said Albert. Retail traders on Stocktwits expressed optimism about Surf Air Mobility’s turnaround plan, which includes securing a $50 million term loan. The company expects to become profitable in 2025. The stock purchase by board members indicates the confidence insiders have in the company’s four-phase transformation plan. While some retail traders remained confident about the stock’s long-term prospects, others may now regret not taking profits when they had the chance earlier in the day. Surf Air Mobility, a Los Angeles-based regional air mobility service, currently operates Cessna Caravan aircraft, which have a range of a little over 1,200 miles, with a top speed of 213 miles per hour. The company is also developing an AI-powered airline software operating system. It also has electric powertrain technology that is currently in the process of being certified. Surf Air Mobility’s shares have declined by 44% year-to-date. For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.<
Business leaders across the country are struggling to find the best way to manage rising polarization and political disagreement at work . On Tuesday, December 10, Newsweek is hosting a panel event to discuss this thorny topic from all angles. Opening remarks will be delivered by Jim Link, CHRO of the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM), the world's largest HR professional association, which will also sponsor the event. The discussion, titled "Better Workplaces: How to Foster Inclusion and Civility," will include insights from legal, medical and social psychology experts, and feature advice for professionals in HR, DEI and communications. The national mood has been tense, and people are unhappy. But we still have work to get done, together, every single day. What's complicating matters is that we increasingly have less respect for those on the other side of the aisle politically. A 2022 Pew Survey found that 72 percent of Republicans and 63 percent of Democrats feel that members of the other party are more immoral, and the number of people saying that members of the other party are dishonest, unintelligent or lazy has spiked since 2016. This strain of conflict is common on the internet and in bars, but it's also making its way to watercoolers, factory floors and even the boardroom. A contentious election cycle surely didn't help, but this is a persistent problem, one that impacts us well past Election Day . Maintaining a year-round focus on respectful culture and setting ground rules for political expression and exchange are key, experts tell Newsweek . Tuesday evening's event will also include a video presentation featuring commentary from the winners of the Newsweek -Stubblefield Civility Awards. In partnership with the Stubblefield Institute, we will be recognizing business executives, members of Congress and other community leaders for their exceptional efforts to promote civility in our public discourse. Panelists include: Stephen Paskoff: Paskoff is a former EEOC attorney and the founder and CEO of ELI, or Employment Learning Innovations, a company he has been running since 1986 that trains business leaders and employees so that their cultural values and behavioral standards ensure a productive and legally compliant work environment.

But a random drawing in the end will determine who gets on the ballot. The ruling party pushed through a constitutional reform in September to make all federal judges stand for election, replacing the system where court employees and lawyers mainly move up through the ranks. Current court employees and their supporters have staged dozens of demonstrations against the reforms, calling them part of a ruling-party campaign to weaken checks and balances and eliminate independent regulatory and oversight bodies. Now, candidates for Supreme Court seats and federal judgeships need only a law degree, a grade point average of 3.2, “five years of professional experience” and five letters of recommendation from neighbors or friends. That, and some luck in the final drawing. Officials rejected criticism that has called the process rushed or amateurish for the often highly technical posts that can hear cases including intellectual property, organized crime and Constitutional law.

According to the plan, evaluation committees will have just over a month to review thousands of resumes and whittle the field to about 10 candidates or less for each for the 881 judgeships and nine seats on the Supreme Court. Then 1,793 names chosen at random from those selected will appear on the ballot on June 1. Critics warn that many who land on the ballot will be unknowns who perhaps have never argued a case in the courts they seek to run. “You don’t elect a doctor or a surgeon for an operation based on their popularity, you elect them based on their technical expertise, their ability, their knowledge,” said Sergio Méndez Silva, the legal coordinator for the civic group Foundation for Justice. “That also applies for a judge.” With candidates now having to run election campaigns, critics warn there’s a chance that drug cartels or political parties could finance them to get friendly judges onto the bench. There are also concerns that the evaluation committees deciding who makes the cut for the selection to appear on ballots may not be impartial. Most committee members were appointed by the legislative or executive branches, controlled by the ruling Morena party. Some critics argue that the current justice system, which is riddled with nepotism, corruption and a lack of accountability, needs to be changed. “We need a justice system that gives results,” said Minerva Martínez Garza, an academic and former head of the human rights commission in the northern border state of Nuevo Leon who has registered to run for a Supreme Court seat. Trials in Mexico can last for years, and the ruling party has added to the growing list of crimes for which bail is not allowed, meaning that a large percentage of the prison population is people awaiting trial. ____ Follow AP’s coverage of Latin America and the Caribbean at https://apnews.com/hub/latin-americaA new supersonic jet called Overture could make the journey from London to New York in just three and a half hours. Developed by Boom Supersonic , the Colorado-based company hopes to have the jet flying by 2030, bringing back supersonic passenger travel for the first time since the Concorde. Earlier this month, a smaller prototype of the jet, nicknamed “Baby Boom,” took its first test flight over the Mojave Desert in California . The aircraft, officially called XB-1, flew for 12 minutes, reaching speeds of 283 mph and an altitude of 7,000 feet. The flight tested its design and technology, which includes advanced aerodynamics and a carbon-fibre shell. Boom’s CEO Blake Scholl said: “This is the most significant step yet in bringing supersonic travel back to passengers.” The Overture is designed to fly at Mach 1.7 - around 1,050 mph - which is slower than the Concorde but still twice as fast as standard planes. It could cut the London to New York journey to just three and a half hours, compared to the usual six and a half. A flight from London to Miami would take less than five hours. The jet would carry up to 80 passengers with a range of nearly 5,000 miles. However, because of restrictions on sonic booms, the Overture will focus on over-water routes, like those between coastal cities in the US , Europe and Asia . Boom Supersonic says there are more than 600 possible routes for the aircraft, and airlines like United, American Airlines and Japan Airlines have already ordered 130 planes. Supersonic travel has not been available since Concorde stopped flying in 2003. The Concorde was famous for its speed but also had big problems with high costs, low demand and safety concerns following a fatal crash in 2000. Boom hopes to avoid these issues with modern technology and a more sustainable design. If all goes to plan, the Overture could make long-distance travel faster and more convenient for passengers. Test pilot Bill Shoemaker praised the XB-1’s first flight, saying: “This is a proud moment for the team and a big step forward in making supersonic travel a reality again.”
