Question: Outrage over new in-flight burger meal

AIR New Zealand has come under fire for its latest in-flight meal offering - a synthetic meat burger known as the Impossible Burger.
The New Zealand First party's primary industries spokesman Mark Patterson called the promotion of the "Impossible Burger", which contains a plant-based meat substitute, on some international flights a "slap in the face" for New Zealand's red meat sector, reports the NZ Herald.
Air New Zealand has teamed up with Silicon Valley start-up Impossible Foods to serve the burger to premium customers.
The plant-based burger will be available as part of its business premier menu on flights NZ1 and NZ5 from Los Angeles to Auckland until late October.
"The national carrier should be showcasing our premium quality grass-fed New Zealand red meat, not promoting a product that has the potential to pose an existential threat to New Zealand's second biggest export earner," Mr Patterson said.
"There has been widespread concern in the regions at the loss of services from provincial airports and now we have Air New Zealand actively promoting synthetic proteins which have a genetic modification component to them. This is not a good example of New Zealand Inc working together for the greater good."
Patterson called for Air New Zealand to review its decision and instead showcase New Zealand produce to international visitors.
NZ National Party agriculture spokesman Nathan Guy expressed his disappointment on Twitter over the promotion.
"Disappointing to see Air NZ promoting a GE substitute meat burger on its flights to the USA. We produce the most delicious steaks & lamb on the planet - GMO & hormone free. The national carrier should be pushing our premium products and helping sell NZ to the world," Guy tweeted.
Comment was being sought from Air New Zealand.

At June 2018, meat products were worth $A6.1 billion to the New Zealand economy, behind dairy which was the country's top export earner on $A12.9 billion. In April this year tourism was worth $A13.4 billion to the economy.
In March, Regional Economic Development Minister and NZ First MP Shane Jones criticised the board of Air New Zealand following the carrier's decision to cut flights to Kapiti, on the lower North Island.
"I'm telling that board, in terms of the growth and connectivity in provincial New Zealand, it will not increase unless that board changes," he said.
He also warned Air New Zealand chief executive Christopher Luxon to butt out of politics.
"Do not poke your nose into the political boxing ring unless you're going to resign today and join the ranks of the National Party. This is a legitimate issue on behalf of those provincial areas who have been short-changed. I've said all along, my focus is on the board."

Georgia special
The special election in Georgia to fill HHS Secretary Tom Price’s old congressional seat could end with a historic Democratic upset. The Sixth District seat has been held by a Republican continuously since Newt Gingrich won it in 1978, but changing demographics and what’s known as a “jungle primary” are giving Democrat Jon Ossoff a shot at winning today’s vote.
Georgia tea leaves
Spanning wealthier and Republican-leaning suburbs north of Atlanta, Tom Price’s old seat is just the kind of place Democrats would love to pull off an upset. They’d point to it as evidence of excitement in their base, and support from the upper-income Republicans and college graduates who eluded them in 2016. But winning will be tough. We look at data from the 50,000 early votes already cast to gauge the contest.
Custody battle
A lawyer for conservative radio show host Alex Jones says his client is nothing more than a showman. He said it in a Texas court, where Jones is fighting for custody of his children. His ex-wife argues the views and conspiracy theories on Jones’ radio show prove he’s unfit for fatherhood.
Silver lining
Whatever your feelings about tax day, retailers want you to know they feel your pain (or relief). The tax day freebie has become something of a modern tradition as corporations angle for new customers. Here’s a sampling of the companies trying to take some sting out of today by offering big discounts and free stuff.
Church cops
Alabama lawmakers could send a bill to the governor this week that would allow a megachurch to establish its own police force. The bill has already passed the state Senate and is awaiting a House vote. We take a look at why the plan is getting mixed reactions.
Corn sole
Reebok is creating its first shoe made entirely from biological materials. The shoe, available this fall, will have a cotton upper and a sole made from Susterra, a corn-based plastic substitute. It’s intended to be completely compostable, and will even use biologically derived glue to join the pieces together.

Question: Top web browsers 2018: Microsoft's IE and Edge shed share as Chrome gains

This news article should be represented to find a fitting news title!

Browsers built by Microsoft and Mozilla jettisoned some of their precious user share in January, while Google's broke out of a months-long malaise by grabbing what its rivals lost, and then some.
According to California-based analytics vendor Net Applications, the user share of Internet Explorer (IE) and Edge - the estimated portion of all personal computer owners who ran those browsers - fell by half a percentage point to 16.5% in January.
After a one-month reprieve from losses - IE+Edge had climbed in December - Microsoft's browsers returned to their long-time pattern of decline. The 16.5% mark was the second-lowest for Microsoft's combined user share in the decade that Computerworld has recorded Net Applications' numbers.
Together, the two browsers ran on about 19% of all Windows PCs, or on slightly less than one in five systems. That was the lowest-ever share of Windows PCs for the pair and stood in stark contrast to the 52% they accounted for just two years ago.
January 2016 was a red-letter month for IE because it was then that Microsoft stopped serving security updates to most editions of its kingpin browser, forcing customers to upgrade in most instances to IE11. Many instead switched browsers. It was Microsoft's decision to retire non-IE11 editions that fueled the rise of Google's Chrome.
And Edge, the default browser for Windows 10, has not taken up IE's slack by any measure. Edge's own user share - less than 5% - meant that the browser ran on fewer than 14% of all Windows 10 machines in January, or less than one in every seven devices powered by the OS.
If IE's collapse has been Microsoft's biggest browser defeat, then the inability of Edge to capture more than a piddling part of the Windows 10 audience has been the company's second-largest failure. Simply put, Windows 10 users have rejected Edge.
Meanwhile, Mozilla's Firefox shed two-tenths of a percentage point, ending the month at 10.85%, that browser's lowest share since September 2016. The November overhaul, on which Mozilla has pinned great hope, has yet to boost the browser's user share, even though reviews of what the company calls "Firefox Quantum" have generally been upbeat.
Because browser user share is a classic zero-sum exercise - if one browser loses part of the available 100%, one or more others must gain - it was no surprise that Chrome picked up eight-tenths of a percentage point in January, the largest increase since the same month of 2017. Chrome accounted for 61.4% of last month's user share, according to Net Applications.
Chrome has been the biggest recipient, by far, of the dual decline of Microsoft's IE and Mozilla's Firefox. Google's browser is within striking distance of accounting for two-thirds of the world's user share, a mark it could reach by November based on trends over the last quarter.
The same trend line now forecasts that IE+Edge, as well as Firefox, will head in the other direction. Computerworld calculated that IE+Edge could slip below the 10% bar as soon as August, while Firefox will beat it there, with a shot at dropping under 10% in March.
Net Applications calculates user share by detecting the browser agent strings of those who visit its clients' websites. It then tallies the various browsers, accounting for the size of each country's online population to better estimate share in regions where it lacks large numbers of analytics customers.
Other data sources painted a picture that resembles Net Applications'.
Irish metrics company StatCounter pegged IE+Edge's January decline at a half percentage point to 11.4%, and a Firefox slide of four-tenths of a point, to 11.9%. Chrome, on the other hand, added 1.3 percentage points to its usage share - a different measurement than Net Applications' user share, and akin to activity - ending January with a remarkable 66%.

It appears that Windows 10 is continuing to grow in popularity, with recent figures showing that 34.92% of PC users are running the operating system.
The figures come courtesy of Netmarketshare, a company that tracks what operating systems people use on the internet. While the company can't determine the operating system of every laptop or desktop PC in the world, it at least gives us an idea of how well operating systems are doing.
With Windows 10 hitting its largest market share ever, Microsoft will surely be pleased.
Windows 7 hangs on
However, despite Windows 10 growing in popularity, according to Netmarketshare, Windows 7 remains the most popular operating system for PCs.
Microsoft may be struggling to convince those users to upgrade, but it should at least take comfort in the fact that it’s still clearly in the lead when it comes to desktop and laptop operating systems, with the Windows platform as a whole being used by 88.53% of users. Meanwhile, Apple’s range of macOS operating systems are a distant second at 8.75%, and Linux third with 2.27%.
It’s worth noting that this is just from statistics recorded by a single company. Earlier this year we reported that Statcounter found that Windows 10 has surpassed Windows 7 users.
The truth may lie somewhere between these two results, but what’s clear is that Windows 10’s user base continues to grow, and that Apple, Linux and Chome OS devices still have a long way to go to topple Microsoft’s dominance.

This content was published on August 8, 2017 5:39 PM Aug 8, 2017 - 17:39
The aircraft was reportedly travelling from Zurich, Switzerland to Hamburg, Germany when it crashed. (Keystone)
A small aircraft with two people on board that took off from Zurich has crashed into the waters of Lake Constance located on the German-Swiss border. Authorities believe the passengers did not survive.
According to German police, the crash occurred on Tuesday afternoon near the German island of Mainau, which is about 50 kilometres (31 miles) from the northeastern Swiss city of St Gallen.
A spokesperson for local firefighters indicated Tuesday evening that remains had been found during a search of the crash site. Earlier in the day, lake police used a submersible robot to investigate the aircraft debris, which rest some 60 metres underwater.
Flight recordings will be analysed to determine the cause of the crash. German meteorological services reported that conditions were favourable for flying, with moderate turbulence over Lake Constance at the time.
The aircraft left Zurich around 11:30 in the morning and was flying toward Hamburg in northern Germany. Shortly before noon, witnesses alerted authorities to the crash. Lake police then discovered debris on the water’s surface.

Question: Jury sides with Taylor Swift in groping lawsuit

Represent this text to find a news title for it

Taylor Swift has won long-awaited vindication after a jury decided that a radio host groped her during a pre-concert photo op four years ago.
After a week-long trial over dueling lawsuits, jurors determined Monday that fired Denver DJ David Mueller assaulted the pop star by grabbing her backside during a backstage meet-and-greet.
The six-woman, two-man jury also found that Swift's mother and radio liaison were within their rights to contact Mueller's bosses.
Mueller sued the Swifts and their radio handler, Frank Bell, seeking up to $3 million for his ruined career.
Just before closing arguments, the judge dismissed Taylor Swift from Mueller's lawsuit and drastically reduced the amount Mueller could collect.
The singer-songwriter said in her countersuit that she wanted a symbolic $1 and the chance to stand up for other women.

Taylor Swift is still in court testifying against the Denver DJ she claims groped her in 2013, and her friends are continuing their support for the pop singer.
After Lena Dunham tweeted that Swift was setting a powerful example for other women, Kesha tweeted out her support for the singer, too. “I support you always, and especially right now and admire your strength and fearlessness,” Kesha tweeted, adding. “Truth is always the answer.”
. @taylorswift13 i support you always, and especially right now and admire your strength and fearlessness. truth is always the answer. - kesha (@KeshaRose) August 14, 2017
Kesha undoubtedly knows how difficult court battles can be as she has been engaged in her own legal fight. Last year, Swift donated $250,000 to Kesha in the middle of her own trial against Sony and Dr. Luke, when a court ruling denied the “Tik Tok” singer the ability to record new music outside her recording contract with Sony.
While David Mueller’s lawsuit against Swift has been thrown out by a judge, who said the pop star could not be held liable for Mueller’s firing, Swift’s countersuit against the DJ will be considered by a jury. Swift is seeking a symbolic $1 as well as the chance to speak out against the alleged groping.

Question: Ivanka Trump Dodged Questions About Her Business By Just Hanging Up On Reporters

Well that's one way to avoid uncomfortable questions. Earlier this week, Ivanka Trump scored seven new trademarks in China for her fashion brand — just as her father was engaged in negotiations with Beijing. This sparked concerns about a potential conflict of interest, and when reporters asked her about this situation during a Tuesday conference call, Ivanka Trump just hung up.
On Tuesday, Ivanka co-hosted a White House media call with Holli M. Richmond, the director of the White House Council on Sports, Fitness and Nutrition. The call was tied to "White House Sports and Fitness Day," which is Wednesday. Assistant White House Press Secretary Ninio Fetalvo told reporters at the beginning of the call that Ivanka was scheduled to leave for a meeting partway, The New York Times reported, but that she would nonetheless take several questions first.
However, the first question Ivanka received was about the Chinese trademarks. Fetalvo intervened and said he would “refer those questions to the press office." Shortly afterward, another reporter posed a question about the president's fitness and diet routine, but after a brief pause, Fetalvo indicated that Ivanka had left for that meeting and was no longer on the call.
As The New York Times pointed out, Ivanka rarely takes questions from reporters in uncontrolled settings. So though the Chinese trademarks Ivanka recently obtained were unrelated to White House Sports and Fitness Day, reporters took the media call as an opportunity to broach the topic with her on the rare occasion that she gave them access.
Ivanka's work in the White House alongside her continued work on her own brand have been sparking ethical concerns ever since her father first assumed the presidency. China's decision to grant Ivanka her latest trademarks coincided with her father's efforts to save ZTE, a Chinese electronics maker. The U.S. Department of Commerce punished ZTE last month — by banning the company from purchasing tech components — after it conducted business with Iran and North Korea, thereby violating American sanctions.
According to a New York Times report, Trump administration critics are concerned that the president's attempt to save ZTE could appear to be a reward for a foreign government that granted his daughter the trademarks she sought. Ethics watchdogs Fred Wertheimer and Norman Eisen wrote that the timing of the ZTE negotiations could set a precedent for "foreign interests and governments to curry favor and buy influence with the president."
The question about Ivanka's Chinese trademarks was not the only one that went unanswered. According to CBS News, another reporter asked Richmond if the first lady would attend White House Sports and Fitness Day. She has not been seen in public since undergoing kidney surgery two weeks ago, and her absence has sparked numerous conspiracy theories, though her spokeswoman has indicated that her recovery is proceeding well. Richmond was unable to confirm whether or not the first lady would be in attendance, but did tell reporters that the president would deliver remarks at the event.
On the call, Ivanka had also received a question about whether her father had changed his fitness and diet routine following recommendations from his physician. Another reporter posed a similar question to Richmond after Ivanka left the call, but that question was also redirected to the press office.
Although Ivanka works as a senior adviser in her father's administration, Vanity Fair suggested that she still isn't necessarily accustomed to responding to the ethical concerns that have plagued her for months.

Associated Press
NEW YORK (AP) - For the fifth year in a row, Las Vegas super eater Miki Sudo took top prize at the Nathan's Famous July Fourth hot dog eating contest, downing 37 franks and buns in 10 minutes amid stifling humidity at the annual seaside competition.
Sudo fell short of the 41 hot dogs she consumed last year but still beat out second-place finisher Mischelle Lesco of Tuscon, Arizona, who chowed down 28 wieners and buns.
On the men's side, 10-time winner Joey "Jaws" Chestnut will confront 20 other men for the coveted Mustard Belt later Wednesday.
Sudo, 32, was a fan favorite, drawing big cheers from the crowd during her performance, which was slightly delayed after she requested new water to soak her buns.
George Shea, the longtime host of the annual Brooklyn eat-off, quipped that Sudo was particular about the temperature and amount of water she uses while competing.
Thousands of attendees, many donning mustard-colored hot dog caps, braved 83-degree temperatures and a heat index of 91 degrees to witness the annual July Fourth competition on the Coney Island boardwalk. The outlandish tradition dates to 1972, though the company has long promoted what a former president acknowledged was a legendary start date of 1916.
Fan Martha Pleasant, 41, of Franklin, New Jersey, said she was attending the competitive eating competition to support her husband Dwight, who "loves wieners."
"We are trying to knock something off my hubby's bucket list," she said.

Question: South Korea pin World Cup hopes on star man Son

South Korea will need their talisman Son Heung-min to bring his sparkling English Premier League form to the World Cup if they are to survive a devilishly tricky group.
The Koreans crashed out in the first round of the 2014 tournament in Brazil and have their work cut out to avoid the same fate in Russia, where they have been drawn alongside holders Germany, Sweden and Mexico.
But they boast genuine star quality in snake-hipped Tottenham attacker Son, who lit up the Premier League this season, helping Spurs finish third and secure a UEFA Champions League place.
One of the best players to emerge from Asia, the 25-year-old scored 18 goals in all competitions in a brilliant campaign with the London club and once again carries the hopes of a nation heading into the World Cup.
South Korea made history with their astonishing run to the 2002 World Cup semi-finals but the current crop of players have struggled to hit those heights — or come anywhere close.
Son almost single-handedly led the Taeguk Warriors to the Asian Cup final in 2015, where they lost to hosts Australia, but his eye-catching performances earned him a move from German club Bayer Leverkusen to Spurs, where the mercurial forward has been a big hit with supporters.
Son will be desperate to deliver for his legions of fans in South Korea and has the weapons to pose a serious threat to Sweden in their World Cup opener on June 18.
The Koreans realistically also need to take points from Mexico with world champions Germany awaiting them in their final Group F fixture in Kazan.
Pelted with toffees by fans in a traditional Korean insult on their return from Brazil four years ago, they will need star man Son to be on song in Russia to avoid a repeat.

Japan have indicated they may rest players for their final World Cup qualifying match against Saudi Arabia, in a blow to Australia's hopes of automatic qualification.
The Blue Samurai booked their position in Russia with a 2-0 win over the Socceroos in Saitama on Thursday, meaning Wednesday's (AEST) game in Jeddah is a dead rubber for Vahid Halilhodzic's men.
But the same match holds the key to Australia's qualification path, with the green-and-gold needing three points against Thailand on Tuesday before hoping Japan win or draw in Saudi Arabia.
A favourable result for the Socceroos looks to be against the odds however, with Japanese defender Maya Yoshida suggesting an experimental team is likely to be selected in the Middle East.
"I think [Halilhodzic] will try to test some different players, but the manager really is a bit of a weirdo," the Southampton centre-half said.
"Sometimes he makes decisions we don't expect, so I can't say anything."

Question: Implantable Drug Delivery Devices Market to Reach Approximately US$21.1 bn by 2018-End

mplantable drug delivery devices are drug eluting devices implanted at targeted sites for therapeutic applications. The global implantable drug delivery devices market was valued at USD 11.6 billion in 2011 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 8.8% from 2012 to 2018 to reach an estimated value of USD 21.1 billion in 2018. The Asian implantable drug delivery devices market held a market share of over 15% in 2011 and will register the fastest CAGR during 2012 to 2018 owing to economic development in emerging economies such as India and China.
View Report: https://www.transparencymarketresearch.com/implantable-drug-delivery-devices.html
In terms of market leaders for individual product segments, Medtronic led the market in the global implantable infusion pumps market in 2011; however, its market share is expected to plummet by 2018 due to the Class I product recall of SynchroMed II in 2012. On the other hand, Boston Scientific Corporation dominated the coronary drug eluting stents market in 2011. Furthermore, Allergan Inc. will dominate the global intraocular drug delivery market in the coming years, owing to the growing popularity of its biodegradable implant – “Ozurdex.”
Request a Brochure of the Report @ https://www.transparencymarketresearch.com/sample/sample.php?flag=B&rep_id=887
Implantable drug delivery devices gain precedence over other drug delivery devices due to the fact that these devices are implanted at the targeted site and deliver unaltered concentrations of drugs at regular intervals. The market overview and trends for the global implantable drug delivery devices is analyzed based on the following attributes:
Technological trends: The introduction of biodegradable technology based products such as biodegradable intraocular implants and bio-absorbable stents will accelerate the growth of the overall implantable drug delivery devices market. Moreover, these biodegradable implantable drug delivery devices will act as internal substitutes for already existing products such as non-biodegradable intraocular drug delivery implants and coronary drug eluting stents.
External substitutes: The presence of external substitutes and their technological advancement will restrain the growth of the market. For instance, the market growth of the brachytherapy seeds market is impeded by the advent of new technologies and the improvement of pre-existing alternative technologies such as HDR devices, image guided brachytherapy (IGBT) and pulse dose rate (PDR) treatments.
Barriers to new entrants: Implantable drug delivery devices are categorized as Class I high risk medical devices. The approval process of these medical devices involves complicated and stringent FDA and CE regulations and therefore, is an expensive and lengthy affair. Non-compliance of these regulations leads to product recalls. Moreover, the presence of manufacturers with large revenue base such as Merck, Bayer, and Johnson and Johnson, elevates the barrier to new entrants and makes it very difficult for new entrants to sustain themselves.
Patent expiration: Patent expiration of implantable drug delivery devices plays a very important role in determining the competitive scenario and overall market growth. For instance, the patent for Bayer’s Mirena will expire in 2015 and this will open up the market for generic product manufacturers like Teva Pharmaceuticals.
Introduction of cheaper products especially in the global contraceptive drug delivery implants market will drive the market in the future. Manufacturers like Bayer and Merck have entered into strategic agreements with the UN, DFID and Marie Stopes International and are marketing their products in emerging and underdeveloped economies by reducing their prices by approximately 50%. Furthermore, the future market expansion strategies adopted by Shanghai Dahua Pharmaceuticals Co. Ltd., that markets its contraceptive drug delivery implant known as Sino-implant at approximately USD 8, will affect the market by stiffening the competition for players like Merck and Bayer.

Question: Good Samaritan honored for trying to save Srinivas Kuchibhotla in February shooting

Time magazine is honoring Ian Grillot for taking a bullet for Indian techie Srinivas Kuchibhotla, while trying to intervene during a racially-motivated shooting in Kansas this February.
Grillot, 24 at the time of the shooting incident, was injured while trying to stop a Navy veteran Adam Purinton, who yelled to Kuchibhotla and his friend Alok Madasani to “get out of my country.” The incident took place at a bar in Olathe, Kansas, where Purinton shot and killed Kuchibhotla, and injured Madasani and Grillot.
Grillot’s name will be featured in Time magazine’s “5 Heroes Who Gave Us Hope in 2017” category.
“I wouldn’t have been able to live with myself if I didn’t do anything. Without all the prayers and positive support from everybody, I wouldn’t be doing as well as I am right now,” Grillot is quoted saying in a Dec. 7 story published by Time. “It has been a wonderful year and a blessing to be alive,” Grillot added.
Grillot was honored by the Indian American community in Houston earlier this year, where they raised $100,000 to help him buy a house in his hometown in Kansas. The Indian government also gave him an award in recognition of his heroic attempt.

To give you a sense - "['Represent this text to find a news title for it.', "TEMPE, Ariz./SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - A woman crossing a street was killed by an Uber self-driving sport utility vehicle in Arizona, police said on Monday, prompting the ride services company to suspend its autonomous vehicle program.\nThe accident in the Phoenix suburb of Tempe dealt a potential blow not only to Uber’s strategy but the eventual rollout of robot cars on public roads.\nIt was the first fatality from a self-driving vehicle, which are being tested around the globe in a high-profile race by global automakers and tech companies expecting that autonomous vehicles will transform transportation and the ride services business.\nThe vehicle was in autonomous mode with an operator behind the wheel at the time of the accident, which occurred overnight Sunday to Monday, Tempe police said.\n“The vehicle was traveling northbound ... when a female walking outside of the crosswalk crossed the road from west to east when she was struck by the Uber vehicle,” police said in a statement.\nPolice identified the victim as Elaine Herzberg, 49. Herzberg later died from her injuries in a hospital, police said.\nLocal television footage of the scene showed a crumpled bike and a Volvo XC90 SUV with a smashed-in front.\nTempe is 11 miles (18 km) east of Phoenix.\nAn Uber Technologies Inc spokesman said the company was suspending North American tests of its self-driving vehicles. In a tweet, Uber expressed its condolences and said the San Francisco-based company was fully cooperating with authorities.\nVolvo confirmed the vehicle was a Volvo XC90, which Uber has been using special versions of in its testing. Russell Datz, a spokesman for the automaker, said the autonomous technology was not made by Volvo.\nThe U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) said they were sending teams to investigate the crash. NHTSA also said it was in contact with Volvo. The Swedish car brand is owned by China’s Geely [GEELY.UL].\nIn Canada, the Ministry of Transportation in Canada’s Ontario province, which is overseeing Uber’s on-road autonomous testing in Toronto, said it was reviewing the accident.\nOn Friday, Alphabet Inc’s self-driving unit Waymo and Uber urged Congress to pass sweeping legislation to speed the introduction of self-driving cars into the United States. Some congressional Democrats have blocked the legislation over safety concerns, and Monday’s fatality could hamper the quick passage of the bill, congressional aides said Monday.\nFILE PHOTO: Uber's logo is pictured at its office in Tokyo, Japan, November 27, 2017. REUTERS/Kim Kyung-Hoon\n“This is a wake-up call to the entire AV industry and government to put a high priority on safety,” tweeted former U.S. Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx.\nSenator John Thune, who heads the Senate Commerce Committee, and has been urging Congress to pass sweeping legislation to speed self-driving cars to U.S. roads, said in a statement the accident “underscores the need to adopt laws and policies tailored for self-driving vehicles.”\n“Congress should act to update rules, direct manufacturers to address safety requirements, and enhance the technical expertise of regulators,” Thune said.\nFallout from the crash “will likely prove negative for all auto makers and suppliers with aspirations in autonomous driving, Buckingham Research Group analyst Glenn Chin wrote in a client note. “A human fatality is likely to spur increased public and regulatory scrutiny of AVs around a process that is admittedly quite lax in the U.S.”\nArizona has opened its arms to companies testing self-driving vehicles as a means to economic growth and jobs. Republican Governor Doug Ducey signed an executive order in 2015 allowing for the testing of such vehicles on Arizona streets and reached out to Uber a year later after California regulators cracked down on the company over its failure to obtain testing permits.\nFILE PHOTO: A fleet of Uber's Ford Fusion self driving cars are shown during a demonstration of self-driving automotive technology in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, U.S. September 13, 2016. REUTERS/Aaron Josefczyk/File Photo\nESSENTIAL TO UBER’S SUCCESS\nUber is one of many technology companies and automakers, including Waymo and General Motors Co’s Cruise division, racing to ready self-driving cars for public use in coming years.\nUber has said its ability to build autonomous cars is essential to its success in the rapidly changing transportation industry. The company envisions a network of autonomous cars that would be summoned through the Uber app that would supplement - and eventually replace - human-driven cars.\nUber has logged 2 million self-driving miles through December. The company has more than 100 autonomous cars testing on the roads of the greater Phoenix area, the company’s prime testing ground due to the state’s loose regulations and hospitable weather. Rain, snow and ice are particularly challenging for autonomous cars.\nConcerns over the safety of autonomous vehicles flared after a July 2016 fatality involving a Tesla Inc automobile. The car involved in that accident featured a partially autonomous system that required human supervision. Uber’s vehicle, on the other hand, is considered a full self-driving vehicle where a human is not needed at the wheel.\nSafety regulators later determined Tesla was not at fault in that accident.\nEven when not regulated by state law, companies testing autonomous vehicles still sometimes place a driver at the wheel to monitor the car and take over in case of need.\nUber has weathered a series of crises, including sexual harassment claims, controversy over its use of a tracking tool to avoid government officials, and a high-profile lawsuit brought by competitor Waymo alleging theft of self-driving trade secrets. It settled that lawsuit last month, with Uber paying $245 million of its own shares to Waymo.\nThat settlement was largely seen as a means for Uber to resume work on autonomous cars without the distraction of litigation, as it hustles to catch up with Waymo, which is widely seen as having the most advanced cars in the industry."]" should be close to "['Represent this title to get a news article that provides more details about it', 'Woman dies in Arizona after being hit by Uber self-driving SUV']"

The average Brit considers themselves to be 79 percent good – and 21 percent bad, according to a new study.
Researchers took an in depth look into how the nation sees themselves - with some surprising results.
According to the data most of us (45 percent) claim we would do anything for anyone, while a further 28 percent would consider themselves to be a “good egg”.
However, behind the smiles and the niceties, 90 percent of us claim to have a dark side – with the average Brit owning up to doing something bad six times in the last 12 months.
Saying something spiteful to hurt someone else (25 percent), sharing a secret had promised you’d keep to yourself (22 percent) and kissing someone you shouldn’t made Brits naughty list.
One in twenty (5 percent) even admitted to having an extra marital affair and 16 percent have sworn at a stranger in the street after a minor disagreement.
The ‘good v bad’ study, which was carried out by online casino playojo.com also revealed women claim they are more likely to have a dark side than men (61 percent).
In fact, a sinister one in ten (11 percent) of the 1,500 adults polled said they have a dark side that no one knows about.
Yesterday a spokesperson for playojo.com casino said: “On the whole the research shows most people consider themselves to be good person - but we all have a tendency to go off piste from time to time.
“The research highlighted that most people are aware of their weaknesses whether that be telling a few fibs, losing our temper or snooping at something we shouldn’t.
“No one can be perfect all the time and we are all capable of behaving badly when tired, stressed or under pressure.
“We realised there was a level of distrust among players in the online casino industry and we pledged to give them a more rewarding and fairer alternative.
“At PlayOJO.com we’ve re-written the rules for online gaming – We give players back control of their money with no sneaky terms and conditions in the small print. We don’t have wagering requirements and we give money back on every bet, win or lose. In fact, we’re not bad for an online casino.”
To keep our dark side in check more than two thirds (67 percent) of the population felt they need the occasional chance to misbehave.
And nearly two thirds (64 percent) of respondents said they find people who are ‘holier than thou’ a bit boring and felt it was good to have an edgier side.
High stress levels and a bad temper were the most common weaknesses of those polled with a quarter complaining that money was their Achilles heel.
Telling lies, the opposite sex and alcohol were also listed as common character flaws the survey found.
A quarter of the adults polled (24 percent) said they have suffered life changing consequences as a result of being badly behaved and 39 percent said they often felt guilty after getting up to something they shouldn’t.
Nearly half of Brits said they often come across as sweetness and light but harbour vicious thoughts about people they dislike.
BRITS MOST COMMON MISDEMEANOURS….
1. Lied about how much money you have spent
2. Said something spiteful to someone
3. Told a secret you said you would keep quiet
4. Lied about your whereabouts
5. Sworn at a stranger
6. Flirted with someone you shouldn’t
7. Lied about how much you drink
8. Snubbed someone in the street
9. Committed road rage
10. Snooped on someone’s emails
11. Kissed someone I shouldn’t have
12. Carried out an act of revenge on someone you don’t like
13. Told a lie to hurt someone
14. Sent a naked selfie to someone
15. Sexted someone you shouldn’t
16. Lied on a CV or interview
17. Stitched someone up at work
18. Had an affair

Seen this? Your license tax and how it is lavished. In any other walk of life this is called shift work and would just happen. An extra £1m for some of the MOST biased and most anti-British BBC employees. Cheers.

Question: "The World Entire" by Amy Miller

Amy Miller
THE WORLD ENTIRE
In the pink video the rabbit
keeps moving and the man
could be a hunter or a drunk until
you see what he’s doing—he’s saving
you, world, the singed pelt of your panic
that’s running toward the fire.
You have this crazy impulse to go
home, regardless of how it burned,
is burning even now. The safe
little room remains in your mind,
the quiet, the bed. So you turn back
to the flaming ground, trees
screaming, blood sky, back
to what’s gone and what
you remember. But the man
won’t stop calling, as obsessed
as you, so now you run
toward him and his hand
finds some loose part of you
to pull and then suddenly
he’s warm and telling you
I have you. You don’t know
where he’s carrying you—
the camera stops too soon—
and it was only random math,
spark, ignition, two arcs,
trajectories that brought you
both here, but now
he’s walking you right out
of hell, both of you
so alive and surprised.

Amy Miller: “Out of the horrible news of this week’s fires in Southern California came this wonderful, strangely moving video footage of an unidentified man saving a panicked rabbit from a raging fire along a roadside in La Conchita, CA. It’s hard to watch it and not think of metaphors of a world in flames and one person compelled to bravery to save just one soul, the one that’s in peril right in front of him. It brought to my mind the old adage of ‘Whoever saves a life saves the world entire,’ attributed variously to the Talmud, the Quran, and Oskar Schindler.” (website)

By BRIAN SLODYSKO and DAVID CRARY
Associated Press
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) - Newly released federal figures show a sharp rise in child abuse fatalities in the U.S., with the bulk of the increase occurring in two states, Indiana and Texas, where child-welfare agencies have been in disarray.
According to a report released this week by the Department of Health and Human Services, there were 1,700 fatalities resulting from child maltreatment reported in fiscal year 2016, compared to 1,589 the previous year - a 7 percent increase.
Fatalities in Texas jumped from 162 to 217. In Indiana, the death toll more than doubled from 34 to 70.
Juvenile Judge Marilyn A. Moores says her Indianapolis courtroom has seen a surge in child welfare cases due to the opioid epidemic.
She says that has overwhelmed the state's child welfare agency.

It’s the closest to midnight we’ve been since 1953.\nMidnight represents Armageddon.\nNurzhan has been an international advocate for nuclear disarmament ever since she learned of the impact nuclear weapons had on her country. Two million Kazakhstanis still suffer cancer and birth defects, the fallout from decades of Soviet weapons tests.\nWhile many international organizations are active on nuclear disarmament, advocates like Nurzhan face a major challenge getting ordinary people engaged, especially youth. During the Cold War, public demonstrations against nuclear arms were common. Today, not so much. Increased threats haven’t increased public interest, says Nurzhan.\nRob van Riet, peace and disarmament co-ordinator for the World Future Council, says nuclear disarmament “feels too large for a lot of people and they feel powerless.”\nIssues like climate change are daunting, but tangible. Ordinary citizens can contact politicians, demanding policies that reduce emissions. More importantly, people have at least some control over their household energy use.\nBut making superpowers give up their huge arsenals, let alone influencing a rogue state like North Korea, seems unattainable.\nStill, Nurzhan and van Riet insist ordinary people can help reduce the global risk of nuclear conflict.\nA powerful tool is divestment. The U.S., Russia and China want to upgrade their aging nuclear arsenals, and develop new types of smaller weapons that could be used on the battlefield. The companies that build parts for those bombs are supported by investors like pension funds, and even our personal RRSP funds. We can pressure investors to drop these companies from their portfolios, pushing them to get out of the bomb business.\nCanada is uniquely positioned to be a leader in nuclear disarmament. As climate change makes Arctic waters more accessible to submarines, Russia and the U.S. increasingly see the north as a key part of their nuclear strategy, according to van Riet. As a respected Arctic nation, Canada could lead the campaign to make the region a nuclear-free zone.\nLikewise, with public pressure, Canada could play a diplomatic leadership role and insist that all nuclear states follow the example of China and India and declare a “no first-use” policy. This would reduce the risk of conventional conflicts escalating into nuclear war.\nBut if Canada is to be that leader, we have to make it a priority for our government.\nPrime Minister Justin Trudeau has been conducting town halls across the country — a great opportunity to raise the issue, notes Douglas Roach, a former Canadian senator and ambassador for nuclear disarmament.\n“If he’s is not hearing from people, he’s going to think people don’t care,” Roche pointed out.\nThe Cold War may be a distant memory, but its terrifying ghost still haunts us.

NEW ORLEANS — The New Orleans Pelicans say they've voided around 2,500 playoff tickets that were purchased improperly during a pre-sale event for the second round of the NBA playoffs.
The club says the event was designed exclusively for season-tickets holders, but that codes provided for online purchases were shared with people who were not eligible for the promotion.
The Pelicans say they have not previously had a problem with the improper sharing of promotional codes for ticket sales, but that an "unprecedented demand for playoff tickets resulted in tickets being purchased by non-season ticket or partial season ticket holders."
The club says it conducted a review of the presale and voided all purchases from unqualified buyers.

Suite lease at AT&T Stadium turns to bitter legal fight for Plano sports fan
A longtime Plano football fan is gearing up for a fight with the Dallas Cowboys, after he says he was pressured into signing an expensive lease for a suite at AT&T stadium, then was sued when he stopped paying.
He's not the only fan to face off with the Cowboys' legal team over stadium suites.
Tarrant County civil court records examined by The Dallas Morning News show that Cowboys Stadium LP has gone to court more than 40 times -- beginning in the weeks after the cavernous "Jerry World" opened in Arlington until June of this year -- after holders of its luxury suites declined to pay up.
In more than a dozen cases, attorneys for the $1.2 billion stadium won seven-figure court judgments when the suite holders, who paid up to $450,000 annually, put up little to no defense.
Feb. 2010: The Dallas Cowboys sue 10 businesses, saying they stopped paying luxury-suite leases for Arlington stadium.
Employment: The U.S. shed 33,000 jobs in September because of Hurricanes Harvey and Irma, which closed thousands of businesses in Texas and Florida and forced widespread evacuations.

Question: Spanish property developer Metrovacesa cuts listing price

Represent this text to find a news title for it.

MADRID, Feb 2 (Reuters) - Spanish property developer Metrovacesa cut its listing price late on Thursday and delayed its stock market flotation by one day in a negative sign for one of the sectors that has attracted most investor activity in Spain in recent years.
The company, which owns the largest land bank in Spain, cut its listing price to 16.5-17 euros per share from 18-19.5 euros, it said in a statement to the market regulator, without giving a reason.
It will list on Feb. 6, it said, one day later than planned. The new listing price values the company at up to 2.57 billion euros, below its net asset value of 2.69 billion euros.
Residential construction in Spain is thriving with foreign investment pouring into developments in cities and coastal resorts, a decade after a property bubble burst leaving banks laden with developers’ bad loans.
House builder Neinor Homes listed last year, the first flotation by a Spanish residential builder in a decade.
Metrovacesa was taken over by creditors Santander and BBVA in 2009. The banks are selling stock in the company as part of the listing although they will remain majority shareholders.
Just under a fifth of its assets are in the northeastern region of Catalonia which embarked on an independence drive from Spain in October, plunging the country into its worst political crisis in decades.
BBVA, Santander, Deutsche Bank and Morgan Stanley are acting as the joint global coordinators and joint bookrunners for the offer.
Goldman Sachs and Societe Generale are acting as additional joint bookrunners, the company said in the statement. (Reporting by Sonya Dowsett; editing by Jason Neely)

Truck stolen from Armstrong allegedly used in multiple incidents between Lake Country and Kelowna
Kelowna Regional RCMP continue their investigation into an early morning string of related hit-and-run collisions which involved a stolen white Ford F-150 pickup truck travelling between Lake Country and Kelowna and ultimately led to the dynamic arrest of a suspect by an off duty RCMP officer in Rutland.
Just before 6:30 a.m. Monday, RCMP began to receive numerous calls from the public of an erratic and dangerous driver who had been involved in, and fled from the scene of, a rollover collision along Highway 97 near Beaver Lake Road in Lake Country.
“Calls from the public continued to pour in,” said RCMP spokesperson Cpl. Jesse O’Donaghey. “Residents reported that the same suspect Ford F-150 had been spotted at various locations throughout Rutland.”
An off-duty RCMP officer became involved when he witnessed the driver of the suspect vehicle commit an offence.
The driver eventually stopped n the 400 block of Gerstmar Road and fled from the vehicle. The off-duty officer identified himself as a police officer and a struggle ensued during which the officer was allegedly assaulted.
Police have since confirmed that the Ford F-150 had been reportedly stolen from Armstrong.
“The criminal investigation remains in its early stages, as police prepare to conduct at least a dozen interviews with both witnesses and victims,” said O’Donaghey. “Our officers have yet to positively identify the young adult male they currently have in police custody.”
Once identified the suspect could face several potential charges.

Question: Petition launched over cat investigation

A Beamsville animal rescue group has launched a petition calling on the Ontario SPCA to re-open an animal cruelty investigation at a property where they say more than 100 cats were living and dozens more were dead.
Beamsville4Paw Rescue collected more than 225 signatures in person during a successful adopt-a-thon in Grimsby this weekend for some of the rescued kittens and cats from Merritt Road.
It’s also posted an online petition on its website and through Facebook.
“People were outraged,” said Pam Huson, owner of Beamsville4Paw Rescue. “People were coming and giving me hugs. The petition line was out the door. You couldn’t even move. So many donations, so much support.”
The Ontario SPCA told the Standard last Wednesday that it couldn’t move forward with an investigation or lay animal cruelty charges at the Merritt Road property due to lack of evidence.
Lincoln County Humane Society executive director Kevin Strooband said Monday if more evidence becomes available, the agency can still lay charges.
“It’s still open because there’s no statute of limitations,” he said.
Strooband said OSPCA officers did not see evidence of cruelty during their visits to the Merritt Road property. The agency has received photos from the rescue groups, but he said those pictures don’t show evidence required to lay charges either.
If the groups can provide more evidence required for a charge, Strooband said the OSPCA officers are willing to take it. “They’ve been less than forthcoming to this point,” he said.
The Town of Lincoln does not have a bylaw limiting the number of cats a person can own or have at a residence.
Beamsville4Paw Rescue and Project Save-a-Cat’s Life say they rescued 100 cats, some pregnant with kittens on the way, and found another 150 deceased at the property, which was abandoned by a former tenant believed to be a cat hoarder.
Volunteers have been at the site every day since July 18 catching cats, some injured and many underweight, getting them medical attention and putting them in foster homes.
The story has triggered an outpouring of support from the community.
Huson said more people than expected showed up at Grimsby’s PetValu on Saturday and Sunday to adopt cats, sign the petition or make a donation.
“They were crying, opening their hearts. It was truly amazing to see the community pull together,” she said.
Members of Beamsville4Paw Rescue were hoping to adopt out 10 cats but people scooped up 30.
Huson said the timing was good because one of the pregnant cats at a foster home gave birth on Sunday and they needed more room for newborns.
“We may be doing the trapping but this is a community project. We wouldn’t be able to do this without the public’s help. Without the people donating, without the people opening their doors for fosters,” Huson said.
“I love my community. I don’t think I’d live anywhere else. The support that we’re getting, you could tell people love their animals.”
Huson said another group of cats will be up for adoption at the store some time after Labour Day. But people don’t have to wait for the event to adopt and can view the cats at any time in their foster homes. All cats ready for adoption are expected to be listed on the www.beamsville4pawrescue.com website by this Thursday.
Meanwhile, the volunteers continue to visit the property trying to catch one or two stragglers, but believe they’ve cleared all others.
“I’m amazed at our volunteers and the groups that we have, that in less than a month we have rescued a hundred-plus cats. Truthfully that is amazing and a half,” Huson said.
“That’s because of the public. I can’t thank the public enough. I wouldn’t be able to do it if they didn’t open their hearts and their doors.”
In addition to calling on the OSPCA to re-open its investigation, the rescue group’s petition is asking that the Lincoln County Humane Society be removed from all animal cruelty investigations within the Niagara region and from any services in the Grimsby community. The idea would be to bring in another agency.
Strooband said the Lincoln County Humane Society has done good work with animals in the area.
“Because this group is not pleased with our decision to date, they want to change the policing of animals in their jurisdiction, which isn’t appropriate,” he said.
Strooband said if there are legitimate concerns, there is a complaint process on OSPCA’s website in the FAQ section. He said they welcome any questions.
“We’re not concerned about their feelings of a lack of investigation,” he said. “We’re concerned that we haven’t been provided evidence by them to properly do our jobs, almost to the point of obstructing us when they’re holding evidence they’re not turning over.”
Volunteers have said they are willing to cooperate in any way they can and want to know what more they can provide.

Question: Correct environmental challenges, MIREMCO urges miners

By Festus Ahon
ASABA — DELTA State Mineral Resources and Environmental Management Committee, MIREMCO, yesterday, urged miners to remediate all environmental challenges associated with their operations.
Speaking during a stakeholders meeting at the instance of MIREMCO, its ‘state chairman, Mr John Edijala, called on all stakeholders to co-operate with the body in the task of nation building.
Restating the resolve of government to develop the solid mineral sector to international standard, Edijala told the stakeholders that MIREMCO had the mandate to midwife mining activities from inception to maturity.
According to him, the concept of memorandum of understanding between miners and host communities has been institutionalised, adding that “conflict resolution mechanism has also been institutionalised.”
Noting that mining was on the exclusive legislative list, he said MIREMCO had been authorised to work with all stakeholders to reduce areas of friction.
He added that MIREMCO also had the mandate to superintendent payment of compensation to host communities.
He commended the peace initiative of Governor Ifeanyi Okowa, adding that Delta State “is investors delight and the state government has resolved to partner all potential investors to shore up the revenue base of the state.”
He insisted that the government was determined to diversity the Nigerian economy, reduce dependence on oil and its attendant community crisis and build a viable and sustainable solid mineral sector that would be people and environment-friendly.

Ogun State Governor, Ibikunle Amosun has announced that the state plans to leverage value chains in its agriculture space. Adepeju Adebajo, Commissioner for Agriculture joins CNBC Africa to discuss ways to drive investments into the state.

DONALD Trump could order his military to “incinerate” North Korea if “lunatic” Kim Jong-un launched a nuclear attack, an ex-Royal Navy officer has suggested.
GETTY WW3: Trump could order his military to “incinerate” North Korea if Kim Jong-un attacked
The growing threat of North Korea’s nuclear capabilities was today laid bare during a presentation by former Royal Navy Rear Admiral Chris Parry at the annual RUSI Missile Defence Conference in London. In his speech, Mr Parry, a strategic risk expert and government advisor, laid bare the security and military implications of North Korea supreme leader Kim Jong-un possessing nuclear weapons. He recalled threats made by North Korea in September 2017 to detonate a hydrogen bomb over the Pacific Ocean in response to Trump’s talk of military action. Kim’s plans for retaliation “could probably mean the strongest hydrogen bomb test over the Pacific Ocean”, North Korea’s foreign ministry Ri Yong Ho said.
GETTY REBEL: Kim has ripped up the post-Cold War rule book on international nuclear weapons policy
The explosive rhetoric from Pyongyang came after Trump threatened to “totally destroy” North Korea in an apocalyptic speech to the UN General Assembly. The situation has calmed down since, with both leaders expected to meet in Singapore on June 12 in what would be the first ever summit between a US president and a North Korean leader. Nevertheless, Mr Parry told the RUSI conference that Kim has overturned decades of policy in relation to nuclear and missile engagement strategy. Kim has ripped up the post-Cold War rule book on international nuclear weapons policy by being prepared to use them as “war fighting weapons”, he said.

He said: “More and more now, the one place you might get away with using a nuclear weapon is at sea. “So, let’s think what the White House would do if a carrier battle group had a nuclear device detonated on top of it. “Do you incinerate Pyongyang as a result? “Some of our fundamental assumptions about using nuclear weapons, about ballistic missiles themselves are coming under threat.”

Question: Calgary 2026 public vote could take place in November as city officials consider question

represent the article to find a fitting news title

The proposed plebiscite on whether Calgary should pursue a bid for the 2026 Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games could take place in November.
City of Calgary officials have earmarked then as the most likely time for the vote over the future involvement in the bid.
The plebiscite will only move forward, however, should the Council agree to continue pursuing the Olympic bid.
Evan Woolley, chair of the City's Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games Oversight Committee, claimed earlier this month that the result of the public ballot would be binding.
Councillors are due to hold another vote on whether to proceed in June after studying more details about the potential financial implications of hosting the Winter Olympics for the first time since 1988.
A decision has yet to be taken on the question which will be asked to voters, however a proposal has been floated.
The proposed questions is: "Do you support or do you oppose The City of Calgary's participation in hosting the 2026 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games?"
Potential answers would be either "Yes, I support The City of Calgary's participation" or "No, I oppose The City of Calgary's participation".
The Canadian city is also seeking to secure local input for its potential bid, with officials considering public hearings.
Mayor Naheed Nenshi opposed the idea of holding the hearings, but other means of gathering feedback are expected to be considered.

"If we're doing the plebiscite, the public hearing is just window dressing," Nenshi said, according to CBC.
"It's a lot of time, it's a lot of work, it's a lot of money to organise that.
"It's very difficult for people who are working to come down to the city.
"So you never get a full cross-section of people."
In 2017, the Bid Exploration Committee, which has so far spent CAD$5.2 million (£3 million/$4 million/€3.5 million) on exploring the possibility of a bid, estimated that the Games would cost $4.6 billion (£2.6 billion/€3.6 billion/€3 billion).
That budget could be revised next month, however, when an update is expected to be given.
Sion in Switzerland, Graz in Austria, Sapporo in Japan, Erzurum in Turkey and Stockholm in Sweden are among the other contenders for the 2026 Games, as well as a joint Italian bid from Milan, Turin and Cortina d'Ampezzo.
Sion in Switzerland must also face a referendum.
A host city is due to be chosen by the International Olympic Committee in 2019.

A spokesman for the Progressive Conservatives said the new government wants more time to consult and examine the laws before they come into effect.

Question: NFL free agents 2018: Jets 'frustrated' they didn't get meeting with Kirk Cousins

Represent this text to find a news title for it

Despite the Jets' efforts, quarterback Kirk Cousins wound up signing with the Vikings in free agency. The Jets, as you might imagine, weren't pleased with how things unfolded.
Once Cousins arranged his first (and only) visit, with the Vikings -- who were already a Super Bowl contender, far ahead of the Jets in that regard -- it became clear the Jets were done.
Cousins' agent, Mike McCartney, spoke to The MMQB about his Tuesday morning phone call to the Jets, during which he informed them that Cousins would visit the Vikings first. The Jets badly wanted a chance to sit down with Cousins, but it never materialized.
"That was a tough phone call," McCartney said. "They were clearly frustrated. They wanted to be guaranteed a visit. I told them I couldn't guarantee a visit, that if he goes to Minnesota and loves it, he could sign. They were not happy about that. I understand, but I told everyone all along what the rules were, and we abided by them."
The bottom line is this: Cousins wanted to win, and he went to a winner, and he got a three-year, fully guaranteed $84 million contract. The Jets reportedly offered Cousins a three-year, fully guaranteed $90 million deal. When you already making this much money, why chase $6 million more? Aren't some things (like winning) more important than that extra $6 million?
Meet Teddy Bridgewater
The Jets weren't going to be able to compete with what the Vikings offered, in terms of roster talent. Cousins isn't getting any younger. He turns 30 in August. He understandably values winning over money, especially since he made $43.9 million over the previous two seasons with Washington, while twice playing on the franchise tag. So an extra $6 million is not a big deal.
But if the Jets draft the right quarterback third overall (a big "if"), then it probably won't sting so badly that they missed out on Cousins.

With a week of wheeling and dealing, the Raiders have stood out as the busiest AFC West team during the free agency frenzy.

With a week of wheeling and dealing, the Raiders have stood out as the busiest AFC West team during the free agency frenzy.
The Raiders’ long list of free-agent additions is headlined by two former fantasy football stars, Jordy Nelson and Doug Martin, followed by unknown players to fill needs at feeble positions.
Raiders coach Jon Gruden was serious when he said he wanted to turn back the clock after signing two blocking tight ends, Derek Carrier and Lee Smith, and a fullback, Keith Smith.
There’s nothing wrong with being a physical, run-first team, but for Raider Nation’s sake, Gruden still sees quarterback Derek Carr as the top priority and not just running a 1998-type of offense Jeff Fisher would approve of.
The signing of Martin is a head-scratcher, especially with Marshawn Lynch reportedly scheduled to return. Lynch and Martin are both physical runners with limitations in the passing game. The difference: Lynch proved last year he can still break tackles and hit a hole. The former Bucs star hasn’t shown that since 2015.
Oakland took a big gamble guaranteeing $13 million on a two-year, $15 million contract for Nelson. It’s not a good sign when the Packers chose to keep Randall Cobb instead of Nelson to play No. 2 for Aaron Rodgers and dished out $30 million for tight end Jimmy Graham, who like Nelson, has lost his speed to make plays downfield.
Nelson probably won’t be able to fill Michael Crabtree’s role as a top wideout on the outside, but he can be Carr’s go-to slot receiver. Most importantly, he can be a leader in the locker room, something the Raiders lacked in 2017.
Here’s where the Raiders come out winners. Oakland signed quality defensive backs without handing out massive contracts for the top cornerbacks on the market. Cornerback Rashaan Melvin is coming off a breakout season with the Colts.
The Raiders’ best pickup could be Tahir Whitehead, who was the Lions’ top linebacker the past two seasons.
A look at the rest of the NFL winners and losers from free agency:
AFC West
The Broncos didn’t wait around for Kirk Cousins to tell them no and quickly signed Case Keenum to start at quarterback.
The Chiefs gave second-year quarterback Patrick Mahomes another target in Sammy Watkins. The Chargers have been quiet the past seven days.
Winners: Raiders, Broncos, Chiefs
Losers: Chargers
AFC North
The Browns got free agency started with trades for Tyrod Taylor and Jarvis Landry. They signed Carlos Hyde and have two top-four picks in the NFL draft.
The Ravens have many needs but only came out with Crabtree. Tyler Eifert is back with the Bengals and the Steelers decided to skip the free agency period.
Winners: Browns
Losers: Ravens, Steelers, Bengals
AFC East
The Patriots lost many key players with Nate Solder, Malcolm Butler, Dion Lewis and Danny Amendola signing elsewhere.
Amendola is now with the Dolphins, who gave Albert Wilson a three-year, $24 million contract. The Jets got coveted cornerback Trumaine Johnson. The Bills chose AJ McCarron after the other top free-agent QBs chose other teams.
Winners: Jets
Losers: Patriots, Dolphins, Bills
AFC South
Tennessee brought in Lewis and Butler to play for former Patriot and Titans coach Mike Vrabel.
Houston landed Tyrann Mathieu. The Jaguars’ added to their offensive line with Andrew Norwell.
The Colts continue to not help Andrew Luck.
Winners: Titans, Texans, Jaguars
Losers: Colts
NFC West
The Seahawks spent free agency dumping key players like Richard Sherman and Michael Bennett.
Sherman now plays for the 49ers, who also paid Jerick McKinnon. The Cardinals threw a lot of cash at quarterbacks Sam Bradford and Mike Glennon.
The Rams improved their secondary via trades for Aqib Talib and Marcus Peters.
Winners: 49ers, Rams
Losers: Seahawks, Cardinals
NFC North
The Vikings got arguably the best free agent available in Cousins and still had money leftover for Sheldon Richardson.
The Packers were finally active in free agency after signing Graham and Muhammad Wilkerson. The Bears gave Mitchell Trubisky a new target in Allen Robinson.
Detroit simply failed to keep up.
Winners: Vikings, Bears, Packers
Losers: Lions
NFC East
The Giants finally got a quality lineman in Solder. The Redskins paid Paul Richardson like a Pro Bowl wideout.
The Eagles continued to add to their stout defensive line. The Cowboys haven’t signed anyone — yet.
Winners: Giants, Eagles
Losers: Redskins, Cowboys
NFC South
Drew Brees returned to New Orleans on a hometown discount. Carolina lost cornerback Bashaud Breeland to a failed physical.
The Buccaneers signed Vinny Curry and the Falcons stayed quiet.
Winners: Saints
Losers: Panthers, Falcons, Buccaneers
