The NFC’s No. 1 seed will come down to the final week when the Detroit Lions host the Minnesota Vikings. The winner takes the NFC North and gets a first-round playoff bye and home-field advantage until the Super Bowl. The loser becomes the No. 5 seed and must play on the road in the wild-card round. The Vikings (14-2) held on for a 27-25 victory over the Green Bay Packers to set up the high-stakes showdown in Week 18. The Lions (13-2) visit the San Francisco 49ers (6-9) on Monday night in a rematch of the NFC title game. Win, lose or tie, they have to beat the Vikings again. Detroit beat Minnesota 31-29 in Week 7. The Philadelphia Eagles clinched the NFC East and locked up the No. 2 seed with a 41-7 rout of the Dallas Cowboys. However, coach Nick Sirianni has a tough decision to make this week. Saquon Barkley is 101 yards away from breaking Eric Dickerson’s single-season record for yards rushing in a season. Sirianni has to decide whether to rest Barkley and most of his starters to prepare for the playoffs or let his star try for the 40-year-old record. The Los Angeles Rams (10-6) were on the verge of clinching the NFC West. They would lock it up Sunday night if the Commanders beat the Falcons. The outcome of the Atlanta-Washington game has a major impact on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (9-7). If the Falcons win, they’d remain first in the NFC South and would win the division with a victory against Carolina next week. If the Falcons lose, the Buccaneers would take over first place and would secure the division with a victory over New Orleans next week. The Commanders would secure a wild-card spot with a win against Atlanta. If they lose, Seattle stays mathematically alive for a wild card and the Buccaneers could also find a path to the playoffs as a wild-card team. Three teams in the AFC have already secured their seeds. The two-time defending Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs (15-1) won the AFC West weeks ago and clinched the No. 1 seed. The AFC East champion Buffalo Bills (13-3) are the No. 2 seed. The AFC South champion Houston Texans (9-7) are the No. 4 seed. The Baltimore Ravens (11-5) would win the AFC North and get the No. 3 seed with a win or tie against Cleveland next weekend or a loss or tie by Pittsburgh, which hosts Cincinnati. If they don’t win the division, the Steelers have already clinched a wild-card berth. The Los Angeles Chargers (10-6) also secured a wild-card spot. They’ll be no lower than the sixth seed. The final AFC playoff spot comes down to the Broncos (9-7), Dolphins (8-8) or Bengals (8-8). Denver clinches with a win or tie against the Chiefs. The Dolphins need the Broncos to lose and they must beat the Jets on the road to get in. The Bengals must win and the Broncos and Dolphins have to lose for them to get in.

Enzo Maresca backs his Chelsea side to 'dominate English football'... but insists the Blues are not ready to be the top dogs in the Premier League yet Chelsea have started the season strongly under new manager Enzo Maresca Maresca is predicting a bright future, but does not expect a title challenge yet LISTEN NOW: Manchester City correspondent Jack Gaughan joins It's All Kicking Off! to explain whether Pep Guardiola will have money to spend in January By KIERAN GILL Published: 22:34 GMT, 3 December 2024 | Updated: 22:34 GMT, 3 December 2024 e-mail View comments Enzo Maresca says Chelsea are growing out of being Premier League ‘puppies' but in a press conference reminiscent of Jose Mourinho , the Italian insisted this season is too soon to claim they can be crowned the top dogs in England. It was during Mourinho’s debut campaign of his second spell in 2013-14 when the Portuguese famously allayed expectations by insisting the Blues were not in the running with Manchester City and Arsenal , saying: 'Two horses and a little horse that still needs milk. A horse that next season can race.’ Chelsea went on to win the title the very next year under Mourinho and on Tuesday, Maresca, who has a three-year-old Golden Retriever called Ciro, used his dog to describe Chelsea’s growth towards contendership as they take on Southampton at St Mary’s Stadium on Wednesday night. ‘Because of the age, and because of how good the squad is, for me Chelsea in the next five to 10 years will be one of the teams or the team that is going to dominate English football,’ Maresca said. ‘This is what I said this to the club the first time I met them. I still think exactly the same. 'I don’t think (Manchester) City are at the end of a cycle. They are in a bad moment, for sure. I’m more focussed on what we have here, that is good players, good squad, young age and this is the reason why I said, for me, for the next years, Chelsea can be an important club in English football.’ It was then while discussing Mourinho’s horse analogy that Maresca said: ‘The last 20 years, I have always been with two Golden Retrievers or at least one. I don’t know what kind of animals we are.’ Enzo Maresca thinks it is too early for his Chelsea side to challenge for the Premier League title Jose Mourinho famously claimed in the first season of his second spell that his Chelsea side were just a 'little horse' and they went on to win the title the following year Asked if Chelsea should be considered 'puppies' currently, Maresca answered: ‘No. I think we showed we are there and we are competing very well in all the competitions. This shows how mature they are in this moment.’ Tuesday was Maresca’s six-month anniversary of his appointment. He had considerable doubters at the time, some even saying he would be out of Chelsea by December due to his lack of Premier League experience. ‘The moment we lose games, there will still be doubt, I know how it works,’ he said. ‘It’s gone quite quick, the six months. Did I doubt myself? No. Eddie Howe, when he started, did he have experience? No. Pep (Guardiola), when he started at Barcelona. Experience? No. Mikel (Arteta), when he started at Arsenal. Experience? No. When you started as a journalist. Experience? No. ‘We all are in the same situation. When you start, you don’t have experience. You cannot go to the supermarket and buy experience. You need time.’ Enzo Maresca Jose Mourinho Arsenal Chelsea Share or comment on this article: Enzo Maresca backs his Chelsea side to 'dominate English football'... but insists the Blues are not ready to be the top dogs in the Premier League yet e-mail Add comment

Nigeria slumped to as low as 900 barrels per day before the amnesty programme was launched. The FG later gave out contracts to some companies to protect the pipelines especially those that deliver crude to export terminals in Bonny and Escravos. This led to growth of daily crude oil output to 1.3mbpd and recently to almost 1.7mbpd. One of the pipeline protection companies, Pipeline Infrastructure Nigeria Limited (PINL), has mandate in four states of Rivers, Bayelsa, Imo and Abia states. Loads of food items meant for pipeline communities The company employs youths in the areas of coverage and has launched a robust corporate social responsibility (CSR) scheme that makes them corporate helper to the 215 communities. Now, information filtering in from the communities indicate that hope is high that the target of 1.8mbpd is achievable and the larger dream of 2.4mbpd could be attempted in the near future. PINL last weekend concluded a week-long palliatives distribution to its 215 host communities in the four mandate states. This is as the communities have commended the company for what they described as an ‘unprecedented show of love’ since the pipelines passed through their communities. The exercise had the company reaching out to benefitting communities assembled at six different strategic distribution points to receive different food items including rice, beans, garri, Indomie, salt, among others. They also gave out palliatives to flood victims within their mandate areas. The humanitarian tour was led by Deborah Okunbo, CEO of Learn and Leadwise Resources Limited, assisted by Akpos Mezeh (PhD), the Community Relations Consultant for PINL. The palliatives distribution, which concluded without any mishap began on Monday with a press conference during which the CEO Learn and Leadwise Resources Limited, consultants to PINL on CSR programme, explained that the exercise was part of a bouquet of CSR programme packaged by PINL for its pipeline host communities. Preceding the palliatives distribution was a consultation of 11 top traditional rulers of the host communities to inform them about the planned exercise, with the monarchs praising the move and pledging their support. In some instances, they made suggestions on the modalities to ensure a hitch-free exercise. This way, the buy-in of the communities was fully obtained. The exercise which commenced at the Tai local government secretariat at Saapkenwa, for about 35 communities across Andoni, Bonny Eleme, Gokana and Tai local government areas, moved to Owaza community (Ukwa West LGA of Abia State and Rivers States) for 32 different communities. The team moved to Bayelsa state where 52 communities of southern Ijaw, Ogbia, and Yenagoa were treated to mouth-watering gifts in addition to food palliatives of mattresses and blankets as part of relief package for the recent flooding experienced by some communities there. According to the PINL schedule, some 19 communities in Ohaji/Egbema LGA of Imo State were next and it took place at Ohaji LGA. The PINL food palliatives train landed at Ahoada East at St. Paul’s State Primary School, Ahoada, where 37 communities from Ahoada East, Ahoada West, Abual/Odual and Ogba/Egbema/Ndoni local government areas were assembled to receive their portion of food palliatives and relief materials. The six days palliatives tour of communities was concluded at Emohua Local Government Secretariat where Emohua, Etche, Ikwerre and Obio/Akpor local government areas gathered to receive their share of the food palliatives. Speaking to the communities at Emohua on the last day, Okunbo (CEO, Learn and Leadwise Resources Limited, consultant to PINL on the CSR programme) repeated the message to all the other benefitting communities. She restated that; “The purpose of this is to first appreciate the support and corporation we’ve enjoyed from the host communities along this axis and also to solicit for more support and effort towards curbing pipeline vandalism, crude oil theft and illegal bunkering”. She said it was to emphasise that the main target of the CSR Programme is to give the people a sense of ownership and responsibility to the assets on their land, encourage them to be part of their security and protection thereby eliminating pipeline vandalism, oil theft and kpo-fire in the communities. I his response, which also echoed what representatives of other communities had said earlier, a chief, Adolphus Nyegbeke Umesi, Paramount Ruler of Omuobizu and Chairman, Ibaa Council of Chiefs, expressed appreciation to PINL for the gesture, describing it as the first of its kind to the communities. He said; “We celebrate PINL for the palliatives. We have not seen this before, but this one has motivated us to be here. That’s why we are patient, we are salivating, we are hoping, we are celebrating. So that’s why we are here. “My feeling is that these people will not be like other multinationals in our communities because what they’ve done now is a conviction that good things will come. And we also have assured them that vandalization has to stop. We have to make sure of that promise by working day and night. So, we just urge them to keep up the good work”. In an interview with journalists on the sidelines of the end of the palliatives distribution, Okunbo assessed the programme as a huge success devoid of any sad incident. “I feel fulfilled. I really thank God for the success of it. There were no incidents, no issues whatsoever. Everything went seamlessly. I mean all the 215 communities have been attended to and each has received their palliatives and looking forward to the next feature on the initiative, on the CSR initiative by the organization”. So, she said, most of the community members spoke highly of PINL. They were quite happy with the gesture. She added: “Of course, they solicited for more, but they said it was first of its kind. And, you know, they would give their full support to whatever PINL is expecting of them. And they hope for better working relations with the organization. “Yes, of course, it was a positive response. I was glad to hear what they had to say. I’m hoping that the cordial relationship with the communities will continue and it would lead to elimination of pipeline vandalism and Kpo fire”. She assured the people that with their continued cooperation with the company, the CSR programme, which she said is a one-year programme, would be concluded with a medical outreach, skill acquisition, agriculture training, among others. She encouraged youths to stop pipeline vandalism saying “If they’re able to contain that, then we’re able to increase production, the economy will get better. “I do understand that there are challenges all around, but if you’re innovative enough and intelligent enough to bust pipeline, you can actually use the intelligence to do something more positive. So what I would encourage is for us to look for better ways to channel our intelligence to doing productive and positive things. This is because we see that when we burst pipelines it actually affects the environment our lands become not useful to us and we are not able to farm or fish. Such things affect the livelihoods of the people in the community, their health as well and in the long run you find out that poverty would become prevalent in that environment. But if we’re able to channel our energies and our intelligence to more productive things then you find out that prosperity would abound in the communities and there’ll be little or no, in fact elimination of vandalism altogether. There was a time there was no vandalism of pipelines. That’s where we want to get back to and improve on that as well”. Various community leaders and persons who spoke with newsmen across the 215 communities were united in their demand for other forms of CSR projects to transform the lives of the youths, and an assurance that this would put a stop to pipeline vandalism.

Egypt tests new extension of the Suez CanalLOS ANGELES — Mina Kimes has a lot going on this week. Like so many other people this time of the year, the analyst for ESPN's "NFL Live" has been busy wrapping presents and preparing for the arrival of out-of-town guests for the holidays. In addition to those typical holiday activities, however, Kimes also has to break down film and attend a Christmas Eve rehearsal ahead of her one-off gig as a studio analyst for the Kansas City Chiefs-Pittsburgh Steelers and Baltimore Ravens-Houston Texans games streaming live Christmas Day on Netflix . "Yeah it's been pretty crazy," Kimes said Monday during a phone interview. "I'm just excited. I usually just do a studio show during the week that I absolutely love, but there's a level of energy that comes with doing television right before kickoff and also during the game and after. ... Like, in real time, let's see how Joey Porter Jr. or George Pickens or any of the injured players look, and their availability and that kind of thing. "And that adds a different element to it that I'm really personally super excited about. But I just love talking ball on television and just to have the opportunity to do this in front of this many people is quite a Christmas gift." The last sporting event streamed live on Netflix was a massive success — an estimated 108 million live viewers in around 65 million households worldwide tuned in Nov. 15 to watch the Mike Tyson-Jake Paul fight — but also a huge headache for many consumers, who complained on social media about buffering issues and losing the feed altogether. Netflix told The Times on Monday that it learned from the struggles it faced during the Tyson-Paul live stream and has optimized its systems to better handle live events since then. Kimes is hopeful that all such issues have been resolved ahead of the two NFL games, both of which will be key to AFC playoff seedings and one of which (Ravens-Texans) will feature a halftime show by Beyoncé . "The technological aspect of this is above my pay grade, but everybody seems pretty confident about it," she said. "Obviously it's gonna be a bajillion eyeballs on these games, so my hope is that on our end when we're on everything's seamless, not just from a tech and streaming standpoint but from a production standpoint. And so far it seems like it will be, just a lot of experienced folks working on this." Netflix's first foray into NFL games will feature a slew of talent from various other platforms. Kimes will be on the Los Angeles studio show, along with anchor Kay Adams (FanDuel TV) and fellow analysts Manti Te'o (NFL Network), Robert Griffin III (formerly of ESPN) and Drew Brees (formerly of NBC Sports). A studio show from Pittsburgh will feature Laura Rutledge (ESPN) as anchor and Devin McCourty (NBC Sports) and Jason McCourty (CBS Sports and ESPN) as analysts. "It's kind of like a Pro Bowl of sorts," Kimes said. "That sounds self aggrandizing, but I guess I mean so far as I get to work with a lot of people who I don't usually get to work with, which is kind of cool. It's a lot of folks from a lot of different networks and that is also something that is kind of like unique about this." Here's more from Kimes' conversation with The Times. (The questions and answers have been edited for length and clarity) Q: How did this all come about for you? A: I can't remember when I first heard about the possibility – a few months ago or something? But whenever my agent told me about it I was really excited for a litany of reasons, one of which was just the opportunity to work on such massively significant games and obviously ones that are gonna have a lot of eyeballs. Really good games, too, by the way — which, I mean, good for Netflix but also great for me because it's a lot more fun to talk about games like the ones we're gonna be discussing on Christmas. Q: Was there any hesitation to do this during the holidays? I know you have a little one at home ... A: Well, here's the good news — he's 14 months old, so I can just tell him Christmas is the next day and he won't know the difference. I have family coming in actually today and even if I wasn't on the show they would be watching it. They're huge football fans. They would have Netflix on all day anyways, so I think they're almost as excited by the idea of just sitting all day and watching me, probably more so than if I was spending time with them because they see a lot of me in person. Q: So your studio show is going to be on all day, before, during and after both games? A: Yeah, that's why everybody's watching halftime, right? To watch our show. Like, 'Come on, enough Beyonce. One song, let's get back. I really gotta hear this analysis.' Q: This has been a busy month for you, after serving as a color commentator for " The Simpsons Funday Football " alternative broadcast of the Cincinnati Bengals-Dallas Cowboys game Dec. 9. How was that experience? A: It was awesome. It was an absolute dream. I'm a crazy "Simpsons" fan and I think we realized early on — me, Drew [Carter] and Dan [Orlovsky] — just to lean all the way into all the "Simpsons" jokes and references. It seems like fans of the show really enjoyed that. Q: You have made numerous appearances on ESPN's " Around the Horn ." What was your reaction to learning that the show will be coming to an end next year? A: That show has meant so much to my career. That's how I really got my start in television at ESPN. I don't think I'd be doing what I'm doing now if not for 'Around the Horn.' ... So it really kind of made me reflect on I guess the role that the show has played [in] my career. I'm gonna miss doing it a lot because I'm an NFL analyst now, but for me it was one of those platforms [where] you could talk about other sports and topics and I always really, really enjoyed it. It's a special show. Q: What are your predictions for the Christmas games? A: It's boring — I got both of the favorites winning, the Ravens and Chiefs. The Steelers' defensive injuries are very concerning. Q: What about a Beyonce prediction? Any special guests you think might join her? A: I think you might see a special guest from Houston. Don't know who that's gonna be, but I predict that whatever it is, people will wish it was twice as long instead of having to listen to me talk. ©2024 Los Angeles Times. Visit latimes.com .

Looking for Tuesday’s Connections hints and answers instead? You can find them here: Hey, everyone! Merry Christmas! Happy Hanukkah! Happy holidays! If I knew how (and was also allowed to edit stock images that I can use here), I would have photoshopped little Santa hats onto the pins on the top image. I’m raising a glass to you, your family and friends today. Here’s to good health and great times with the people who mean the most to us. Before we get started, I’ve started a discussion group for Connections and this column on Discord . You can chat about each game (and other topics) with me and other folks. I’m always interested to find out how other people approach the game, so join us! It’s fun. It’s also the best way to give me any feedback about the column, especially on the rare(!) occasions that I mess something up. Today’s NYT Connections hints and answers for Wednesday, December 25, are coming right up. How To Play Connections Connections is a free, popular New York Times daily word game. You get a new puzzle at midnight every day. You can play on the NYT website or Games app. You’re presented with a grid of 16 words. Your task is to arrange them into four groups of four by figuring out the links between them. The groups could be things like items you can click, names for research study participants or words preceded by a body part. There’s only one solution for each puzzle, and you’ll need to be careful when it comes to words that might fit into more than one category. You can shuffle the words to perhaps help you see links between them. Each group is color coded. The yellow group is usually the easiest to figure out, blue and green fall in the middle, and the purple group is usually the most difficult one. The purple group often involves wordplay. Select four words you think go together and press Submit. If you make a guess and you’re incorrect, you’ll lose a life. If you’re close to having a correct group, you might see a message telling you that you’re one word away from getting it right, but you’ll still need to figure out which one to swap. If you make four mistakes, it’s game over. Let’s make sure that doesn’t happen with the help of some hints, and, if you’re really struggling, today’s Connections answers. As with Wordle and other similar games, it’s easy to share results with your friends on social media and group chats. If you have an NYT All Access or Games subscription, you can access the publication’s Connections archive. This includes every previous game of Connections , so you can go back and play any of those that you have missed.

What Are Today’s Connections Answers? Spoiler alert! Don’t scroll any further down the page until you’re ready to find out today’s Connections answers. This is your final warning! Today’s Connections answers are... Neato, I got a perfect game. That brings me up to three straight wins. Here's how I fared: 🟩🟩🟩🟩 🟪🟪🟪🟪 🟦🟦🟦🟦 🟨🟨🟨🟨 There was a timely red herring here of the names of Santa’s reindeer: CUPID, RUDOLPH, COMET and VIXEN. But as soon as I saw ROBIN HOOD and HAWKEYE, it was clear that there would be a group of archers. (Tina) FEY and (Maya) RUDOLPH suggested to me that there would be a group of Saturday Night Live alumni, but other than (Molly) SHANNON, I wasn’t quite sure what else would fit. It took me a moment to realize that the missing piece of the puzzle was Cecily STRONG. I could make out the celestial bodies clearly enough and I assumed those were the yellows, so I submitted the blues first. I didn’t make that connection, however. A JENNY is a female donkey, a NANNY is a female goat, a QUEEN is a female cat (or a QUEEN bee) and a VIXEN is a female fox. That’s all there is to it for today’s Connections clues and answers. Be sure to check my blog tomorrow for hints and the solution for Thursday’s game if you need them. P.S. Since it’s Christmas Day, let’s go with the very best Christmas movie: Die Hard.

Read unlimited articles for free today: Already have an account? NEW YORK (AP) — No ex-president had a more prolific and diverse publishing career than Jimmy Carter. His more than two dozen books included nonfiction, poetry, fiction, religious meditations and a children’s story. His memoir “An Hour Before Daylight” was a Pulitzer Prize finalist in 2002, while his 2006 best-seller “Palestine: Peace Not Apartheid” stirred a fierce debate by likening Israel’s policies in the West Bank to the brutal South African system of racial segregation. And just before his 100th birthday, the Dayton Literary Peace Prize Foundation honored him with a lifetime achievement award for how he wielded “the power of the written word to foster peace, social justice, and global understanding.” In one recent work, “A Full Life,” Carter observed that he “enjoyed writing” and that his books “provided a much-needed source of income.” But some projects were easier than others. “Everything to Gain,” a 1987 collaboration with his wife, Rosalynn, turned into the “worst threat we ever experienced in our marriage,” an intractable standoff for the facilitator of the Camp David accords and winner of the Nobel Peace Prize. According to Carter, Rosalynn was a meticulous author who considered “the resulting sentences as though they have come down from Mount Sinai, carved into stone.” Their memories differed on various events and they fell into “constant arguments.” They were ready to abandon the book and return the advance, until their editor persuaded them to simply divide any disputed passages between them. “In the book, each of these paragraphs is identified by a ‘J’ or an ‘R,’ and our marriage survived,” he wrote. Here is a partial list of books by Carter: “Keeping Faith: Memoirs of a President” “The Blood of Abraham: Insights into the Middle East” (With Rosalynn Carter) “Everything to Gain: Making the Most of the Rest of Your Life” “An Outdoor Journal: Adventures and Reflections” “Turning Point: A Candidate, a State, and a Nation Come of Age” “Always a Reckoning, and Other Poems” (With daughter Amy Carter) “The Little Baby Snoogle-Fleejer” “Living Faith” “The Virtues of Aging” “An Hour Before Daylight: Memories of a Rural Boyhood” “Christmas in Plains: Memories” “The Hornet’s Nest: A Novel of the Revolutionary War” “Our Endangered Values: America’s Moral Crisis” “Faith & Freedom: The Christian Challenge for the World” “Palestine: Peace Not Apartheid” “A Remarkable Mother” “Beyond the White House” Winnipeg Jets Game Days On Winnipeg Jets game days, hockey writers Mike McIntyre and Ken Wiebe send news, notes and quotes from the morning skate, as well as injury updates and lineup decisions.
