99 bet tigre The Atlanta Hawks are officially back to being must-watch basketball. Fresh off a stunning come-from-behind victory over the Chicago Bulls—highlighted by an explosive 50-point fourth quarter—the national spotlight is beginning to shine on this team’s potential. Fred Katz of The Athletic recently spotlighted some Hawks players in the early-season NBA awards conversation. Dyson Daniels earned a mention in the Defensive Player of the Year race, while both De’Andre Hunter and Jalen Johnson were listed as contenders for the Most Improved Player award. “Could a perimeter player vault to the spot behind Wembanyama? Defensive Player of the Year is usually reserved for big men, but Dyson Daniels might have something to say about that. Daniels is getting steals on 4.4 percent of his possessions, the highest steal rate for any player since Tony Allen in 2010-11. He has 72 more deflections than De’Aaron Fox , who is second in the league. For reference, that’s the same difference as the one between Fox and 147th place. Daniels isn’t just a gambler. He’s a pest on the ball. Dribblers can’t jolt past him. As long as he keeps performing like this, he’s a lock for All-Defense, but he has two main knocks against him,” Katz writes. Daniels has been a complete and total revelation for an Atlanta Hawks club that has struggled on the defensive end of the court with Trae Young in the fold. However, as Katz continues, Wembanyama’s impact far exceeds Daniels’ own contributions for the Hawks. “First, a perimeter player can’t affect team defense like a big man can. And second (which may just be further proof of the previous point), the Hawks are actually better defensively with Daniels off the court. And that’s not just because Daniels plays many of his minutes alongside the defensively challenged Trae Young . When Daniels is on the court and Young is off, the Hawks defense is a sieve,” the national pundit continued. Katz continued with the two most improved player candidates, Hunter and Johnson. “De’Andre Hunter is another player who’s hitting jumpers like never before, though he’s developed in other ways, too. He’s getting to the line more than ever. Hunter used to avoid contact. Now he finishes through it, a big sticking point for Hawks head coach Quin Snyder,” he wrote. Hunter should be in the running for Sixth Man of the Year and MIP. He’s averaging a career-high 20.3 points on the most efficient shooting of his career, 48.5% from the field and an incredible 44% from beyond the arc. Hunter has found his niche and has an excellent chance of taking home the Sixth Man of the Year award. “Another Hawk, Jalen Johnson , should be on the list. Atlanta has handed more opportunities to Johnson this season, who is a better facilitator than ever. He’s never created his own shot this much and has never set up teammates like this. The Hawks offense is not just the Young show anymore. And Johnson is putting up the counting stats we normally associate with winners of this award: 19.4 points, 10.1 rebounds and 5.6 assists. He might be an All-Star this season.” There’s no doubt that JJ deserves to be considered the frontrunner for the MIP award. The Hawks forward can impact the game in so many different ways, from offense to defense to the transition game. He can rebound, defend, facilitate and score. Jalen Johnson deserves MIP consideration, but even more, the former lottery pick deserves All-Star consideration. This article first appeared on SportsTalkATL and was syndicated with permission.

The S&P 500 edged down by 0.1% Thursday, coming off one of its worst days of the year after the Federal Reserve said it may deliver fewer cuts to interest rates in 2025 than earlier thought. The Dow Jones Industrial Average inched up by less than 0.1%, and the Nasdaq composite slipped 0.1%. Treasury yields were mixed in the bond market following reports showing the U.S. economy may be stronger than expected, but manufacturing may be contracting again. THIS IS A BREAKING NEWS UPDATE. AP’s earlier story follows below. NEW YORK (AP) — U.S. stocks are stabilizing Thursday following one of their worst days of the year . The S&P 500 rose 0.2% in late trading, a day after tumbling 2.9% when the Federal Reserve said it may deliver fewer cuts to interest rates next year than earlier thought. The Dow Jones Industrial Average was up 136 points, or 0.3%, with less than an hour remaining in trading, following Wednesday’s drop of more than 1,100 points. The Nasdaq composite rose 0.3%. Wednesday’s drop took some of the enthusiasm out of the market, which critics had already been warning was overly buoyant and would need everything to go correctly for it to justify its high prices. But indexes remain near their records , and the S&P 500 is still on track for one of its best years of the millennium . Traders are now expecting the Federal Reserve to deliver just one or maybe two cuts to interest rates next year, according to data from CME Group. Some are even betting on none. A month ago, the majority saw at least two cuts in 2025 as a safe bet. Wall Street loves lower interest rates because they give the economy a boost and goose prices for investments, but they can also provide fuel for inflation. Darden Restaurants, the company behind Olive Garden and other chains, helped lift the market after leaping 15.1%. It delivered profit for the latest quarter that edged past analysts’ expectations. The operator of LongHorn Steakhouses also gave a forecast for revenue for this fiscal year that topped analysts’. Accenture rose 6.7% after the professional services company likewise topped expectations for profit in the latest quarter. CEO Julie Sweet said it saw growth around the world, and the company raised its forecast for revenue this fiscal year. Amazon shares added 1.8%, even as workers at seven of its facilities went on strike Thursday in the middle of the online retail giant’s busiest time of the year. Amazon says it doesn’t expect an impact on its operations during what the workers’ union calls the largest strike against the company in U.S. history. They helped offset a tumble for Micron Technology, which fell 16.7% despite reporting stronger profit than expected. The computer memory company’s revenue fell short of Wall Street’s forecasts, and CEO Sanjay Mehrotra said it expects demand from consumers to remain weaker in the near term. It gave a forecast for revenue in the current quarter that fell well short of what analysts were thinking. Lamb Weston, which makes French fries and other potato products, dropped 22.6% after falling short of analysts’ expectations for profit and revenue in the latest quarter. It also cut its financial targets for the fiscal year, saying demand for frozen potatoes is continuing to soften, particularly outside North America. The company replaced its chief executive. In the bond market, yields were mixed a day after shooting higher on expectations that the Fed would deliver fewer cuts to rates in 2025. Reports on the U.S. economy came in mixed. One showed the overall economy grew at a 3.1% annualized rate during the summer, faster than earlier thought. The economy has remained remarkably resilient even though the Fed held its main interest rate at a two-decade high for a while before beginning to cut them in September. A separate report showed fewer U.S. workers applied for unemployment benefits last week, an indication that the job market also remains solid. But a third report said manufacturing in the mid-Atlantic region is unexpectedly contracting again despite economists’ expectations for growth. The yield on the 10-year Treasury rose to 4.57% from 4.52% late Wednesday and from less than 4.20% earlier this month. But the two-year yield, which more closely tracks expectations for action by the Fed in the near term, eased back to 4.31% from 4.35%. The rise in longer-term yields has put pressure on the housing market by keeping mortgage rates higher. Homebuilder Lennar fell 4.8% after it reported weaker profit and revenue for the latest quarter than analysts expected. CEO Stuart Miller said that “the housing market that appeared to be improving as the Fed cut short-term interest rates, proved to be far more challenging as mortgage rates rose” through the quarter. “Even while demand remained strong, and the chronic supply shortage continued to drive the market, our results were driven by affordability limitations from higher interest rates,” he said. A report on Thursday may have offered some encouragement for the housing industry. It showed a pickup in sales of previously occupied homes. In stock markets abroad, London’s FTSE 100 fell 1.1% after the Bank of England paused its cuts to rates and kept its main interest rate unchanged on Thursday. The move comes as inflation there moved further above the central bank’s 2% target rate, while the British economy is flatlining at best. The Bank of Japan also kept its benchmark interest rate unchanged, and Tokyo’s Nikkei 225 fell 0.7%. Indexes likewise sank across much of the rest of Asia and Europe. AP Business Writers Matt Ott and Elaine Kurtenbach contributed.

PHILADELPHIA -- Print the shirts. The Eagles will take an NFC East title into the new year after routing the Dallas Cowboys, 41-7, for their 13th win of the season. It wasn’t always as seamless as the scoreline might suggest against a feisty Cowboys team that knocked Kenny Pickett out of the game and earned a handful of personal foul penalties and two ejections for skirmishes after the whistle. Regardless, the win will keep the Eagles’ slim chances of earning the conference’s No. 1 seed alive while also ensuring they will finish no lower than the No. 2 seed. Here’s our instant analysis: Pickett Provides Pickett provided a gutsy performance for the Eagles, making a handful of timely throws despite coming into the game with a ribs injury and being forced out of it midway through the third quarter after a few hard hits. Pickett left after taking a shot from Micah Parsons, the latest in a string of hits the quarterback took that either ended in him hunched over in pain or writhing on the ground. Pickett suffered the initial injury last Sunday against the Washington Commanders in relief of Jalen Hurts and appeared to wear the extra padding he said he tried during the practice week for the game. Before heading indoors with the aggravated injury, Pickett delivered an efficient game with a few impressive moments taking shots downfield. He finished 10-for-15 for 143 yards and one touchdown while also scoring one rushing touchdown on a quarterback sneak. His best throws came to DeVonta Smith , the first of which ended in a 22-yard touchdown after Smith got separation against Dallas cornerback Andrew Booth on a slot fade. Although Smith had plenty of space against Booth, Pickett did well to avoid pressure and deliver a well-placed ball for Smith to run underneath. Pickett found Smith again late in the second quarter, this time on a go route up the sideline after the wideout blew by Booth for a 50-yard completion that came up just short of the goal line. Pickett scored on a quarterback sneak two plays later. The 26-year-old from Ocean Township lasted one more series in the third quarter before leaving with the injury; he took a couple hits on the drive and was hunched over in pain before giving way to Tanner McKee for the rest of the second half. Timely Tanner McKee’s relief stint was similarly efficient. Playing the first regular-season snaps of his NFL career, McKee needed just three passing attempts to log his first career touchdown pass on a well-placed back-shoulder pass to A.J. Brown from 20 yards out. After Brown secured the back-shoulder pass late in the third quarter, he threw the ball deep into the stands in celebration before realizing the significance it would have for McKee. A stadium official recovered the ball from the fan who caught Brown’s pass and Eagles do-it-all security czar Dom DiSandro collected it for McKee a few minutes later. Also similar to Pickett, McKee found Smith for a big play, hitting the receiver on a slant route that he took 25 yards for his second touchdown of the day. Smith finished with six catches for 120 yards and two touchdowns one week after a costly drop at the end of the team’s loss to the Commanders. McKee spent most of the second half handing the ball off, but the second-year quarterback out of Stanford once again flashed the upside he previously showed in the preseason. He finished 3-for-4 for for 54 yards and two touchdowns. Saquon’s stats Amid “MVP” chants from Eagles fans and Bruce Springsteen ’s “Born to Run” blaring through the stadium speakers, Saquon Barkley took in his latest milestone in a historic season. With a 23-yard run early in the fourth quarter, Barkley surpassed the 2,000-yard mark on the season and became the first Eagles running back to do so. He finished 100 yards shy of the NFL’s single-season rushing record of 2,105 yards held by Eric Dickerson. Especially with the quarterback carousel, the Eagles rode Barkley for most of the game. He had 31 carries and 167 yards, wearing down the Dallas defense en route to a handful of explosive second-half runs. Pickin’ it One week removed from getting ejected for two personal foul penalties against the Commanders, C.J. Gardner-Johnson’s return was even more emphatic than his departure. The Eagles safety known for fiery play that often can “toe the line” picked off Dallas quarterback Cooper Rush on the Cowboys’ opening drive and returned it for a 69-yard touchdown to get the Eagles on the board. It was the 27-year-old’s first career touchdown and his fifth interception of the season. His sixth came one quarter later, when he got underneath a floated pass from Rush for an over-the-shoulder catch. Gardner-Johnson’s second pick set up a two-minute touchdown drive from the Eagles offense, which gave the team a 24-7 lead going into halftime with the ball to start the second half. Gardner-Johnson left with an abdominal injury at the beginning of the fourth quarter and was listed as questionable, but didn’t return with the game out of hand and most of the starters already on the sideline. In general, the Eagles defense settled back in after a shaky second-half performance against Washington without Gardner-Johnson on the back end. The group held Dallas to just 141 passing yards and 268 total. Turnover party Oren Burks went from hero to zero back to hero again. The veteran linebacker got his first start of the season in place of an injured Nakobe Dean, but lasted just two series before getting supplanted by Jeremiah Trotter Jr. for the next two drives. It’s unclear whether Burks suffered an injury, was rotated out in favor of Trotter Jr, or was benched temporarily, but he returned for the Cowboys’ fifth series and quickly staked his claim on the job for the rest of the afternoon. Burks forced a fumble against Dallas tight end Jake Ferguson, the first of four takeaways from the Eagles defense in a bounce back day for the front seven, two of which came from Gardner-Johnson and the final one courtesy of second-year edge rusher Nolan Smith. ©2024 The Philadelphia Inquirer, LLC.

Jimmy Carter, the 39th US president, has died at 100

Avian flu outbreaks and increased demand during the holiday season are being blamed for high egg prices in Massachusetts grocery stores. NewsCenter 5 contacted Stop & Shop about egg prices after spotting a sign about the higher prices inside one of the chain's Boston-area stores. "Like other retailers, Stop & Shop is seeing supply challenges with eggs as a result of repeated avian flu outbreaks, which has led to significant cost increases from our suppliers. Increased demand for eggs during the holiday baking season has also impacted availability and pricing across the industry," a company spokesperson wrote in a statement. "Stop & Shop is in close contact with our supplier partners, and we are working diligently to keep high-demand products in stock and to deliver value to our customers." As of Friday, the U.S. Department of Agriculture reported that white eggs in cartons are being delivered to warehouses at prices ranging from $5.48 to $5.62 per dozen across the northeast. Avian flu can be deadly to domestic poultry. When bird flu is detected in a flock, the animals are quarantined and euthanized to prevent the risk of additional spread. "If we find it in the United States, we must quickly eradicate the disease to protect our Nation’s flocks and economy," the USDA wrote in a 2022 document about protecting poultry from the virus. Last week, California Gov. Gavin Newsom declared a state of emergency in his state over the spread of bird flu, after it was found in at least 650 dairy cow herds in that state. Officials with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have repeatedly stressed that the virus poses low risk to the general public. The agency describes the current situation among dairy cattle as an "ongoing multi-state outbreak" and says the virus is "widespread" among wild birds, but the situation for poultry flocks is considered to be one of "sporadic outbreaks." According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention , no infections have been detected in commercial flocks in any of the New England states since the start of the outbreak in February 2022. Infections have been reported among backyard flocks in all 50 states. The CDC estimates that 127.51 million birds have been affected over the course of the outbreak. For context, the USDA estimates there are more than 378.5 million egg-laying chickens across the country. Of the dozens of human cases reported in the U.S., only one was considered severe so far. There are no reports of person-to-person transmission in any of the cases. The Associated Press contributed to this report.In an impressive rally, SoundHound AI is capturing the market’s attention. Despite a slight pullback, the stock remains up over 10% for the week, riding a massive wave of momentum over the last month. Remarkable Stock Performance SoundHound AI, a company focused on conversational AI solutions, has seen its shares triple recently, marking a staggering 780% increase year-to-date. Investors are buzzing about this under-the-radar AI giant. Why the Surge? A key driver of this surge was an optimistic report from a well-respected tech analyst on Wall Street. Wedbush’s Dan Ives stirred excitement by raising his price target for SoundHound shares from $10 to $22. He believes that the company is poised to expand significantly in the coming years, particularly through its growing market in 2025. Expanding Horizons Throughout 2024, SoundHound has consistently revised its revenue guidance upward, now anticipating revenue between $82 million and $85 million. By 2025, the company projects sales could reach $155 million to $175 million. The recent acquisition of enterprise AI software firm Amelia is a strategic move aiding its expansion into enterprise conversational AI markets, notably in healthcare. Balancing Risks and Opportunities Though SoundHound is not yet profitable, its innovative capabilities in AI suggest promising future potential. Investors should be cautious, however, as the stock’s current high valuation presents significant risk. The future of AI integration looks bright, with SoundHound poised as a major player in this tech revolution. SoundHound AI’s Astonishing Rise: A Look into the Future of Conversational AI SoundHound AI has recently become a focal point in the technological investment realm, capturing significant attention with its groundbreaking stock performance and strategic initiatives. Here’s a deeper dive into the factors contributing to its success and what could lie ahead for this burgeoning AI innovator. Incredible Stock Surge and Market Perception SoundHound AI has greatly impressed investors, with its shares tripling in a short span and seeing a remarkable 780% increase year-to-date. This surge underscores the market’s growing confidence in the company’s potential and its robust strategic planning. Behind the Rise: Analyst Insights and Market Optimism The surge in SoundHound’s stock is primarily credited to the forecast optimism expressed by Dan Ives, a well-regarded analyst from Wedbush. Ives’s increase of the price target from $10 to $22 has notably enhanced market sentiment, indicating significant growth prospects, especially as SoundHound aims to expand its market reach by 2025. Strategic Expansion Through Acquisitions and Revenue Growth SoundHound has been strategically steering itself into new domains by acquiring Amelia, an enterprise AI software firm. This move marks its venture into the lucrative enterprise conversational AI sector, with a particular emphasis on the healthcare industry. Further underscoring its growth trajectory is the upward revision of its revenue guidance for 2024, with predictions to hit up to $175 million in sales by 2025. Weighing the Risks: Profitability and Market Valuation Despite its impressive growth and innovative endeavors, SoundHound has yet to reach profitability, which poses a risk to investors due to its high market valuation. The potential of AI in transforming industries remains vast, and SoundHound is strategically positioned to be a significant contributor in this tech evolution. Innovations and Future Outlook As the landscape of conversational AI continues to develop, SoundHound is focused on harnessing its cutting-edge technology to carve out a competitive niche. Innovations and strategic partnerships are expected to bolster its presence in existing and new markets. Investors should keep an eye on how SoundHound balances its aggressive growth strategies with the financial discipline necessary for sustainable profitability. As AI integration becomes increasingly prevalent, SoundHound is set to remain a key player in the unfolding tech revolution.

No. 5 UCLA snaps No. 1 South Carolina's 43-game win streakPM sets bold course for nation

In its first semifinal berth in school history, No. 7-ranked U High bowed out at 10-3. Unranked Mount Zion (10-3) moves into Friday’s 7 p.m. state championship game against DePaul College Prep with the same record. It wilil be Mount Zion's first state football game appearance. Trimble, a University of Illinois recruit, hurt U High with his rushing, receiving, passing and punting. Yet he dealt the Pioneers the final blow with an interception of a deflected pass in the end zone with seven seconds remaining. U High had driven to the Braves’ 13-yard line in search of a tying touchdown. Pioneers quarterback Alek Weiland fired into the end zone, but a U High receiver and a Mount Zion defender met at the ball causing a deflection. “Connor Fox broke the ball up on No. 1 (Lyfe Campbell) and it just fell into my hands,” Trimble said. “I was just in the right place at the right time.” Trimble finished with 105 yards on 10 rushes, caught four passes for 21 yards, completed a pass for 8 yards and flipped field position with a fourth quarter punt of 53 yards. “They made the plays and we didn’t right there at the end,” said U High coach Brody Walworth. The 6-foot-2, 175-pound Trimble also made a huge impact late in the first half after Mount Zion took possession at its own 17-yard line with 51 seconds left in the second quarter. Trimble erupted for a 73-yard jaunt with only a touchdown-saving tackle by U High’s Lawson Shickel at the 10-yard line keeping Trimble out of the end zone. After an illegal shift penalty, Trimble started up the middle but bounced out right to outrace Pioneers defenders to the goal line. The 15-yard touchdown with 22 seconds showing sent the Braves into halftime with a 21-7 advantage. Weiland completed 15 of 37 passes for 165 yards and was U High’s leading rusher with 78 yards. Cunningham reeled in seven passes for 93 yards and Klemmensen four for 39. “They’ve got a really good quarterback. We know he’s a threat on the scramble,” Trimble said. “He’s going to make plays like he did this game.” U High defensive lineman Clay Nord stepped in front of a Mount Zion shovel pass and held on for an interception at the Braves’ 21-yard line in the first quarter. On the next play, Weiland handed to Carson Stevens, who handed to Campbell coming back the other way and Campbell covered 21 yards for a touchdown. In the second quarter, Max Dameron picked off a pass from Mount Zion quarterback Keller Stocks at the Braves’ 23. U High could not convert as Weiland threw incomplete on fourth-and-4 from the 17. The Pioneers also came up empty in the fourth quarter when Weiland was sacked by Kaden Becker on fourth-and-goal at the 4. U High was held scoreless over the second and third quarters. Weiland found Cunningham in stride over the middle, and Cunningham beat the Mount Zion defense to the left corner for a 26-yard touchdown with 5:56 to play. “We kept fighting,” Walworth said. “Alek did a good job battling through some pressure and was able to find some stuff in the second half. We didn’t win one on one in the first half hardly at all. With a Division I recruit (Trimble) playing man coverage it’s tough for anybody to get open.” U High wounded itself with six first-half penalties for 35 yards. “We made a lot of mistakes the first half,” said Walworth, whose team tidied up with just two penalties for 10 yards in the second half. “We had some procedure penalties and stuff that’s pretty uncharacteristic of what this group has been doing the last seven or eight weeks. “Yeah, we came up a little bit short. But what a fight."

Read unlimited articles for free today: Already have an account? MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. (AP) — The Miami Dolphins were ready to deal veteran defensive tackle Calais Campbell to the Baltimore Ravens ahead of the Nov. 5 trade deadline until Mike McDaniel stepped in. “I may or may not have thrown an adult temper tantrum,” Miami’s coach said, confirming the news first reported by NFL Network Sunday morning. The Dolphins were 2-6 and had lost three straight at that point. They’d played four uninspired games without their starting quarterback, going 1-3 after Tua Tagovailoa went on injured reserve on Sept. 17 with a concussion. Campbell would have had a chance to rejoin the contending Ravens, and Miami would have received a 2026 fifth-round pick in return, NFL Network reported. McDaniel argued that Campbell was too valuable to lose. “I was happy that they brought me into the conversations,” Campbell said after Miami’s 34-15 win over the New England Patriots. “They didn’t have to say anything to me at all. We had a really good conversation about what we think about this team, where we are. We felt like we had a good shot to get back into the fight.” Added McDaniel: “I think it wasn’t like it was (GM) Chris (Grier) versus me. ... That’s the tricky thing about Chris’ job is he has to look long-term and short-term at the same time, what’s the best for the organization.” Campbell, a 17-year veteran, signed with the Dolphins after playing for Atlanta last season. Players and coaches have praised the 38-year-old’s contributions on the field and in the locker room. “There’s no one’s game I’ve come to respect more than Calais up front on the D-line,” defensive tackle Zach Sieler said, “being with him this year and just the energy, the attitude and the mindset he brings every week. It can’t be matched, and that’s the reason why he is who he is today and doing what he’s doing at 17 years.” Campbell leads the team with four sacks. With back-to-back sacks in Weeks 10 and 11, he became the eighth player 38 or older to record sacks in consecutive games since the 1970 merger. He also has nine tackles for loss, giving him at least five tackles for loss in 15 of his 17 seasons. He played for Baltimore from 2020-2022, totaling 11 sacks and 113 tackles. “I think he means a great deal to not only the defensive line room, but the entire defense as well as the entire team,” McDaniel said earlier this week. “It’s rare for a guy to get here when he did, and then be voted, with such conviction, captain. I think the way that he operates to be a pro, I think has had a substantial impact on a lot of players that hadn’t been fortunate enough to be around someone with sustained success like he’s had.” The Dolphins have won three straight games since the deadline. Miami’s defense held the Patriots scoreless until the fourth quarter on Sunday. 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. Arrives a few hours prior to puck drop. Campbell broke down the team’s pregame huddle as he has done before most games this season. He was also seen coaching up rookie linebacker Chop Robinson, who is always seeking pointers from the six-time Pro Bowler. “My job is to speak on behalf of what’s the best thing for the 2024 Dolphins,” McDaniel said. “I’m just fortunate to work in an organization where myself and the GM can be transparent and work together. “And he didn’t want to see any more adult temper tantrums.” ___ AP NFL: https://apnews.com/hub/NFL Advertisement Advertisement
