both its biggest one-day point loss and biggest one-day gain last week, dropping about 10 percent in midweek before making almost half of it back on Friday. This lunatic lurching is an example of not only how nuts the market is, but how fragile some of its favorite stocks are. Let me explain. Even though the market is a multitrillion-dollar beast, all it takes to send the broad indicators soaring–or sinking–is big moves in a few dozen stocks....
Since he suffered his first career loss to Leo Santa Cruz in January 2017, Frampton (25-1, 14 KOs) has rebounded to win back-to-back fights, including capturing the vacant interim WBO featherweight belt from Nonito Donaire in April. This will be the first time Jackson (16-0, 7 KOs) has fought outside his home country of Australia. Jackson last fought in April, knocking out Surachet Tongmala. The co-main event features the return of lineal heavyweight champion Tyson Fury, as he takes on Francesco Pianeta....
But what, exactly, is Sarkonomics? His mix of free-enterprise friendliness and state-coddling can seem erratic. But it’s a pragmatic way to get results from the globalization-leery French, who need to be reassured as much as they need to get moving. The president has won kudos from economists by promising supply-side reforms like the end of the 35-hour workweek, a curtailing of union power and more-flexible work contracts that would make firing easier....
Just after the strike of midnight on Opening Day, the Mets and the superstar shortstop agreed to a 10-year, $341 million contract that will keep Lindor in the Big Apple through the 2031 season. Exhale, Mets fans — and rejoice. While their savvy offseason moves breathed life into the franchise, Steve Cohen and the Mets rang in the 2021 MLB season with a clear message: These ain’t your daddy’s Mets....
Kind of a sad commentary, isn’t it? Lindor can become a free agent after the 2021 season, and there was very little chance the Cleveland ownership group would agree to spend the type of money it would take to sign their superstar shortstop to a long-term deal. So he was definitely going to be dealt at some point. The question was this: Where would he go? We got our answer Thursday....
Graham wrote on “free speech” social network Gab, which has become a haven for those who have been banned from other platforms, about how Pence is recovering from his recent pacemaker implant. “They said he should be back to full activity in just a few days, but I know that he, Karen, and their family would appreciate your prayers. He told me this evening that he is on the mend and God is good,” Graham, one of the most prominent Christian figures in the country and son of the late evangelist Billy Graham, said....
Then Bill O’Brien happened. Then Penn State hit the sweet spot again, and James Franklin happened. Now here we are, barely 30 months removed from NCAA penalties so severe — penalties specifically designed to be worse than the dreaded death penalty of shutting down the program — no one would have blinked if Penn State football became Temple and faded away to irrelevance. “The future is very bright here,” Franklin said....
According to records found in Thompson’s Senate archive on file at the University of Tennessee, his staffers once debated whether to mention Thompson’s box-office bombs in his official Senate biography. According to an undated series of revisions, one film always made the cut: “The Hunt for Red October,” in which Thompson played a tough Navy admiral. Another, “Days of Thunder,” skirted by because of Thompson’s well-known costar. An unnamed aide suggested adding “starring Tom Cruise....
Adu believed he was set to complete a deal with Polish first-division club Sandecja Nowy Sacz, and made the trip ready to sign with the same team he had passed on last winter when the club was still in the second division. It didn’t take the 28-year-old long before he realized something was wrong with the trip. Freddy Adu sounds off on Twitter “As soon as I walked out of the airport I knew something wasn’t right because I was told to take a picture with a team scarf,” Adu told Goal....
Sam Darnold turn the Jets’ offense around The Jets went into their game last week with the Cowboys winless. Starting quarterback Sam Darnold had only played the first week of the season due to an illness, and Trevor Siemian and Luke Falk were forced to take over. Siemian made it for one half until he had a season ending injury, and Falk was not prepared for the job. He did the best he could in weeks 2-4, but the fact remained that the New York Jets were 0-4 on the year....
Honey’s owner, Regina Bennett, shares her photogenic pooch’s escapades on YouTube, Instagram, Facebook and TikTok, describing the Italian greyhound as a “fashion model.” Honey lives in Oslo—the capital of Norway, where winter temperatures can plummet to 40 degrees below zero. Which means the snow can be a little frosty on her toe beans when she takes her daily walk. Luckily, her owner ensures she is well equipped for the climate, with a wardrobe full of chic—yet warm—outfits....

The Associated Press reported that there are multiple videos circulating of Castex not wearing a mask and shaking hands with elected officials at a Paris mayoral congress November 16. Many critiquing the videos say his actions went directly against France’s official COVID stance to continue to take preventive measures to curb the virus’ spread.

In the TikTok video, Alix Weld is filming a seal relaxing in the ocean, when her mother exclaims, “Labrador!” “What?!” says Alix, while her mother repeats, “A Labrador!” One user commented, “I love how they chill vertically like that all compact and squished up ughhh.” According to the Sea Life Trust based in Cornwall, England, this behaviour is called ‘bottling’, “when they bob around vertically or horizontally in the water with just their heads or back above the surface of the water....
All in all, just the sort of people the United States might want as allies in any overt or covert attack on the Iraqi regime. There’s just one enormous problem. In the 1980s, when Washington was Saddam’s friend and “Iranian-backed Shiite radicals” were the enemy, Daawa members took part in some of the worst terrorist attacks ever carried out against Americans. Suicide bombings of U.S. embassies in Beirut and Kuwait and the kidnapping of Americans in Lebanon were linked to Daawa members....

You had to see it Friday night to believe it. Right in the middle of the Nationals-Dodgers NLDS game, on comes a campaign ad sponsored by the NRA. It was pro-Trump and pro-women protecting themselves with guns … from dangerous, threatening men.
