Head coach Dan Campbell and quarterback Jared Goff would certainly like to match that record in 2025, but the team’s NFL schedule is going to…
TALLINN, Estonia (AP) – The talks have taken place in the warring capitals of Moscow and Kyiv, from Washington and Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, to countries across Europe. Now, all eyes are finally turning to Istanbul to seek an end to Russia’s 3-year-old, full-scale invasion of Ukraine. Russian President Vladimir Putin proposed restarting direct peace talks Thursday with Ukraine in the Turkish city that straddles Asia and Europe.

Spain is running its national power grid in “strengthened mode”, using more nuclear and natural gas in place of the renewables it vaunted before last month’s historic blackout, but still hasn’t said what started the outage.

Two weeks after the total loss of all energy generation on the Iberian peninsula of Spain and Portugal,…
Eight years ago, President Donald Trump visited Saudi Arabia and appeared to return empty-handed. True, he made the first-ever flight directly from Riyadh to Tel Aviv. And he prayed at the Western Wall, becoming the first sitting president to do so, acknowledging Israeli sovereignty over the holiest site in Judaism. But there were no big peace deals, and he did not announce that he was moving the U.S. embassy to Jerusalem. Seven months later, Trump recognized Jerusalem as Israel’s capital, and signed the order to move the U.S. embassy. That kicked off a process that led, ultimately, to the Abraham…

A claimed “gender gap” in carbon emissions was revealed Wednesday in a French study that found women emit 26 percent less carbon than men due to their diet and transport choices. Researchers say household structure between the sexes plays a “key role” in shaping the carbon footprint gap and men appear to be leading the way – at least in France. France 24 reports the details and summarises the findings based on a preprint study of 15,000 people in France: The average man in France has a 26% higher carbon footprint than the average woman largely due to increased car usage…

Liberal hack journalist Chuck Todd threw cold water on the presidential ambitions of Pete Buttigieg and pretty much anyone else who served in the Biden administration this week, saying that they might be too ‘toxic’ to run. Todd believes there will simply be too many questions about who knew about Biden’s decline and said nothing. He believes these questions would become too much of a distraction. Of course, this would exempt California Governor Gavin Newsom. Is that what this is really about? FOX News reports: Chuck Todd warns Buttigieg could be ‘toxic’ in 2028 due to Biden ties Former NBC…
