The Arizona Cardinals were rested, relatively healthy and had been playing some of their best football in years. That’s why Sunday’s was so surprising. “Frustrating day offensively, especially the way we’ve been playing to come out here and lay an egg and get physically dominated in a sense,” quarterback Kyler Murray said. The Cardinals (6-5) had their four-game winning streak snapped. Murray completed 24 of 37 passes for 285 yards, but made a brutal mistake, throwing an interception that was returned 69 yards by Seattle’s Coby Bryant. The running game never got going, gaining just 49 yards. James Conner, the team’s leading rusher, had just 8 yards on seven attempts. “There were a lot of things where it felt like the flow of things just wasn’t in our favor,” receiver Michael Wilson said. “Some games go like that. And then we didn’t execute enough to make up for the game sort of not going our way.” Arizona’s still in decent playoff position, tied with the Seahawks on top of the NFC West with six games to play. But after all the good news and winning over the past month, Sunday’s loss was humbling. “We’re going to learn a lot from this game,” Gannon said. What’s working Arizona’s defense continued its remarkable midseason turnaround, giving the team every opportunity to win Sunday. The front seven doesn’t have any stars, but continues to cobble together a respectable pass rush. The Cardinals finished with five sacks, all by different players. Second-year cornerback Garrett Williams intercepted a pass by Geno Smith on the first play of the fourth quarter, briefly giving the Cardinals some momentum as they tried to fight back. Williams — a third-round pick out of Syracuse in 2023 — is growing into a steady starting corner that the Cardinals have missed for years. “I thought that they hung in there and battled, forced a bunch of punts, kept points off the board,” Gannon said. “I thought the interception by Garrett was fantastic, kept us in the game there, kept points off the board. We made some mistakes. We made some mistakes, starting with me.” What needs help The Cardinals aren’t going to win many games with a rushing performance like Sunday’s. Conner, held to a season low in yards rushing, did have 41 yards receiving. Rookie Trey Benson had four carries for 18 yards, while Emari Demercado broke a 14-yard gain. Getting Conner going is key. Arizona has a 5-1 record this season when he has at least 100 total yards from scrimmage. Gannon said falling into an early hole affected some of the things the Cardinals could do, particularly in the second half. “I thought there was plays there, but again, where you get down in that game, you’re not really playing normal ball there for a good chunk of the game,” Gannon said. “So we’ve got to do a better job earlier in the game to make sure we’re not playing left-handed.” Stock up Fourth-year edge rusher Zaven Collins isn’t necessarily the star fans hoped for when he was selected with the No. 16 overall pick in the 2021 draft, but he has quietly had a productive season leading the team’s no-name front seven. Collins picked up his fourth sack of the season Sunday and put consistent pressure on Smith. Stock down Murray’s still having a great season, but the quarterback’s MVP credentials took a hit with Sunday’s mediocre performance. He played pretty well at times, but the interception that turned into a pick-6 was a backbreaker. The sixth-year quarterback had largely avoided those types of plays this season, which is a big reason they’re in the playoff hunt. “Can’t give them seven points, especially when our defense is playing the way that they’re playing,” Murray said. “I feel like if I don’t do that, we’re in the game four quarters because that’s the way it was trending.” Injuries The Cardinals came out of Sunday’s game fairly healthy. Gannon said starting safety Jalen Thompson (ankle) should be back at practice Wednesday. He missed the last two games. Key numbers 12 and 133 — Tight end Trey McBride continued his breakout season with a career-high 12 catches for 133 yards. Next steps The Cardinals have another difficult road game against the Vikings (9-2) on Sunday. ___ AP NFL:The ever-changing landscape of cryptocurrency has made investors always on the lookout for potential returns. While Dogecoin (DOGE) has seen an interest boost, it still needs to determine whether it will cross $2 anytime soon. As the goal is to turn a $500 deposit into $7,500, a 15x increment of the initial investment, new and fundamentally sound cryptocurrencies must be identified well before DOGE crosses this threshold. Two such worth mentioning are Rexas Finance (RXS) and Stellar (XLM). Rexas Finance (RXS): Tokenized Asset Management Reimagined Rexas Finance is not just another entry into the cryptocurrency world but a complete transformation of the asset world. Owning portions of high-valued assets such as real estate and art pieces commodities via tokens will create a lower barrier to entry for many people while enhancing ownership of the assets at the same time. This innovation again increases market and investment opportunities for people worldwide. Rexas Finance's unique outlook has given the company a competitive edge, which has led to comparisons to Solana and Ethereum. In fact, some critics have even dubbed RXS's capabilities' The Solana Killer', as they may exceed and capture good traction in the market. Game-Changing Aspects Of RXS's Growth Rexas Finance is uniquely positioned by an array of features that automate the tokenization process and the tokens' issues. As such, these barriers to adoption are removed. The features include: Rexas Token Builder: A no-coding approach enables users to tokenize tangible assets without any technical knowledge, making it faster to enter the market. Rexas Launchpad: This is a tool for raising funds through the security of tokenized assets. In most cases, the asset owners raise the funds from a global pool of investors. AI-Powered Security: These smart contracts are monitored and secured automatically using artificial intelligence, thus protecting user assets from potential risks. Unprecedented Presale Success and Investor Enthusiasm There is a strong and positive feeling among the investors going into RXS. Rexas Finance, in its presales, has achieved tremendous feats, as seen in stage 10, quickly selling out to garner $30,738,031 and selling out a total of 364,084,594 tokens out of the 380,000,000 total supply. Such overwhelming demand among investors clearly accentuates the trust in the marketplace that RXS will transform conventional asset management systems. Investors Expect Opportunities For Unprecedented Growth Will Arise The prospects of RXS are appealing. Market analysts target $10 for the token by the beginning of 2025, an increase of over 150x its current presale price of $0.15. Such forward-looking statements expose RXS as a good investment choice compared to more mature and developed cryptocurrencies that have no particular viable room for growth. Stellar (XLM): Facilitating Seamless Cross-Border Transactions Stellar enables people to send and receive payments worldwide with a very low conversion rate. It appears to provide a method for receiving and sending funds while encouraging the growth of more financial networks. Presently, the current price of XLM is $0.42, its market value is $12.7 billion, and its market cap is over $30 billion. These measures mean Stellar's potential goes far beyond relying on financial institutions for its development and structure, allowing the banking ecosystem to integrate with systems built upon the cornerstone of blockchain technologies. According to expert predictions, demand for XLM's growth is likely to be driven by the necessity for XLM as a cross-border payment solution. Conclusion Despite several proponents' statements that Dogecoin may still reach $2, Stellar (XLM) and Rexas Finance (RXS) are undoubtedly more favorable for individuals seeking higher profits. More importantly, as for investors looking for the next big thing in the Cryptocurrency market, Rexas Finance is worth investigating. Its coveted position in the crypto space is due to its all-round approach to tokenizing real-world assets, offering a variety of selling features with a high level of security. Given the current buy rush on the first ten presale stages and analysts' forecasts of better times to come, investing in RXS could be interesting right now.

Jammu, Dec 22: Union Minister of State in PMO, Dr Jitendra Singh Sunday stated that the resurgence of Dogra pride became more pronounced after the Prime Minister Narendra Modi came to power during the last ten years. “This resurgence has specific reasons as under the visionary leadership of the Prime Minister Modi, the government took historic decisions, fulfilling long pending demands viz., declaring holiday on the birthday of Maharaja Hari Singh; observing the Accession Day of Jammu and Kashmir and inclusion of Dogri as an official language,” he said. “Another remarkable achievement was that in my parliamentary constituency (Kathua), at the entry point of Jammu & Kashmir, Lakhanpur, where party ideologue Dr Syama Prasad Mookerjee was arrested under a well-crafted conspiracy, for the first time a majestic statue of Maharaja Gulab Singh, the founder of Jammu & Kashmir State, was established in recent years,” he recalled. The Union Minister was speaking to the media persons on the sidelines of a programme organised to observe “Dogra Diwas” commemorating the inclusion of Dogri language in the Indian Constitution and the “International Dogra Legacy Excellence Awards 2024”, here. “I was impressed to notice the feel and verve with which this event was celebrated. This delineated people’s love and pride for their mother tongue. It also gave us an opportunity to have a peep in the long-drawn struggle to achieve a well-deserved coveted place for “Dogri.” Generations struggled for it. As youth, we too had participated in this struggle. It’s time to remember all those who made their monumental contribution to bring Dogri a respectable place among recognised languages and its inclusion in the Eighth Schedule of the Constitution,” Dr Jitendra said. However, one should not stop there, he said. “We need to move forward and Dogra legacy should be our power-house. Drawing strength from this rich heritage, it is time now to make a mark in the global world of which India has already become an essential part after 2014. Efforts should be made to take this legacy forward by our children, our youth riding on the power of technological interventions,” the Union Minister said and exhorted the Dogra community, particularly the youth, to be part of the mainstream growth story of India. “At a time when we have risen to global rank 3 in the world start-up ecosystem and when we are ahead of many others in Quantum Technology and Biotechnology, would we be doing justice to our Dogra legacy if we keep ourselves isolated and not be a part of the global journey of India as is seen in several other states,” he asked. Earlier, while addressing the gathering, he said, “Dogra legacy has always been rich. Even after partition, it produced some internationally acclaimed icons like the famous space scientist and founder ISRO Prof Satish Dhawan and renowned singer of the Indian subcontinent Mallika Pukhraj or musicians like Shiv Kumar Sharma and Ustad Allah Rakha, though this may not be a very widely known fact in some sections.” “While celebrating the legacy gives us inspiration and confidence, nevertheless to keep the legacy alive for prosperity, it is equally important to carry it forward to the next destination which, in today’s context, would imply Dogra contribution in the making of Viksit Bharat of 2047,” he said. Dr Jitendra said that there was no dearth of talent or potential in Dogra youth but what was required was the change of mindset and liberation from the obsession for “Sarkari Naukri” (government job). “Sometimes I feel pain to see youth on indefinite protest for a Rs 6,000 government job when the Modi government has rolled out a series of attractive schemes, which promise a more lucrative source of livelihood. One of the examples is the ‘Purple Revolution’ or the ‘Lavender entrepreneurship’ right in our immediate neighbourhood,” he stated. “As India today stands among the league of frontline nations in the world, it offers an opportunity to the Dogra youth to draw strength from their rich legacy and seek recognition for themselves across the country and beyond. Taking inspiration from the Dogra legacy, it is time for them to leave their own mark on the world,” the Union Minister said. He said, “This legacy should lay the foundation of giving further impetus to the journey for perfection, and enable the youth to play a visibly meaningful role in the making of a Vikisit Bharat.”Can Trump persuade the Supreme Court to stand aside so he can solve the TikTok problem?

B reak out the sackcloth and ashes. As 2024 draws to a close, we centrist dads have conceded defeat. The millennial transformation prophesied by WB Yeats a century ago is finally in sight. Technology and tyranny have shown our civility and gradualism to be wanting. We are devastated and ruined. Things fall apart, the centre cannot hold, and mere anarchy is loosed upon the world. This year’s misfortunes for our tribe are perplexing to the moderate mind. Why has the common herd deserted us? It makes no sense. We’re good people.
