Question: Padres edge Marlins 3-2 on late error by Rojas

"Jose was good again," Marlins manager Don Mattingly said. "It looked like that two might hold up."
Urena got just two runs on Starlin Castro's homer before departing after six innings following a strong performance. He surrendered a run, three hits and two walks. He struck out six in a 93-pitch effort.
Reliever Drew Steckenrider gave up a two-out double to Manuel Margot in the seventh but got pinch-hitter Jose Pirela looking on a 95-mph fastball to strand the tying run.
Clayton Richard had won two of his last three starts and was relying on his slider in inducing the Marlins into harmlessly pounding the ball into 14 groundouts. The left-hander exited after seven innings of two-run ball. He allowed four hits and a walk, with five strikeouts.
"I kept us close and the defence really played well," Richard said.
Richard wiggled out of a jam after hitting Lewis Brinson to start the fifth and allowing JT Riddle's single.
But when Urena tried to sacrifice, catcher Raffy Lopez made a fine play, pouncing on Urena's bunt and retiring Brinson at third to change the inning. With two outs, Realmuto walked to load the bases but Richard got Castro on a grounder to end the threat.
Franmil Reyes continued his hot streak with his third home run in three days, pulling the Padres to 2-1 in the fourth inning. The rookie right fielder took a high fastball the opposite way, his fourth homer in six games clanging off the right-field foul pole. Urena had sat down eight straight before Reyes' blast.
Reyes had studied Urena and how he liked to pound the inside and then go back outside. When he did it in Reyes' second at-bat, he paid the price.
"It was the pitch I was looking for and I put a good swing on it," Reyes said.
Richard retired the first 10 batters he faced. Then Realmuto singled up the middle and Castro hit his third home run of the season, a two-run, fourth-inning shot that landed 423 feet away in the Padres' bullpen over the fence in left-centre.
"I was not trying to throw a fastball down the middle of the plate," Richard said. "And that's what happened."
TRAINER'S ROOM
Padres: C Austin Hedges (elbow) will resume his throwing program on Thursday.
UP NEXT
Marlins: LHP Wei-Yin Chen (1-2, 5.22) gets the nod for the final contest of the four-game series on Thursday with his second career start against the Padres. He beat San Diego in 2016, allowing four runs and seven hits over six innings.
Padres: RHP Jordan Lyles (1-1, 3.83) makes his fifth start of the season, which matches his total from the previous two years. He worked the second-longest perfect game in Padres history on May 15, blanking the Rockies for 7 1/3 innings.

Question: Man who fled to Mexico with teen soon headed to Pennsylvania

Represent this text to find a news title for it

A man who frequently checked a teenager out of school without her parents' knowledge and fled to Mexico with her will soon be in the custody of Pennsylvania authorities.
Federal agents and Mexican authorities found 45-year-old Kevin Esterly and 16-year-old Amy Yu in Playa del Carmen on Saturday and flew them to Miami. The Miami-Dade State Attorney's office says an extradition hearing was held Monday for Esterly, and he will be returned to Pennsylvania in the next two weeks.
The girl arrived Sunday in Philadelphia and was taken home to Allentown, 60 miles (97 kilometers) away.
Esterly faces a felony charge of interference with the custody of a child. Authorities believe Amy willingly traveled with him to Mexico.

"I will work to be a governor of all of North Carolina," Cooper said in brief remarks early Sunday morning. "I love this state. It is the place where I grew up, it is the place where I have worked and worshiped and studied. It is the place I have lived all of my life and I recognize the solemn duty that has been placed upon me and the opportunity that the people of this state have given to me."
Getting his administration in place will be his first major challenge, and the Republican-led General Assembly has made that more difficult by passing a law requiring Senate confirmation of his nominees to lead state agencies such as Health and Human Services, Public Safety and Transportation.
A Superior Court judge issued a temporary restraining order Friday to stop a state law the Republican-led General Assembly passed two weeks ago to change the structure of North Carolina's state and county boards of elections from taking effect Sunday.
The order came hours after incoming Democratic Gov. Roy Cooper on Friday filed a legal challenge to the law, which rolls the state's Board of Elections, Ethics Commission and a division of the Secretary of State's Office that oversees compliance with lobbying laws into a single independent agency run by an eight-member board split evenly between Republicans and Democrats.
Judge Donald Stephens has set a Jan. 5 hearing to determine whether the law should be put on hold indefinitely until courts can determine whether it's constitutional. Under Senate Bill 4, lawmakers would appoint four of the eight members of the new board, with the governor appointing the other four, and a super-majority of six votes among board members would be needed to exercise most of the board's oversight powers, including issuing subpoenas or calling new elections.
No group claimed responsibility for the attack, in which a gunman opened fire with an AK-47 in the crowded club, much like the attack on the Pulse nightclub in Orlando, Fla., in June. The Turkish government pointed the finger at the militant group Islamic State, which has killed more than 100 people in Turkey over the last year and a half. The attack on the Reina nightclub appeared different from the group’s usual operations, however. Islamic State almost always sends its attackers with a suicide vest, said Gareth Jenkins, an Istanbul-based security analyst with the Silk Road Institute. If Islamic State did carry out the New Year's attack, it was an anomaly because the gunman was apparently planning to escape with his life.
The Obama administration on Thursday announced its retaliation for Russian efforts to interfere with the US presidential election, ordering sweeping new sanctions that included the expulsion of 35 Russians. Syria ceasefire appears to hold after rivals sign Russia-backed deal Read more US intelligence services believe Russia ordered cyber-attacks on the Democratic National Committee (DNC), Hillary Clinton’s campaign and other political organizations, in an attempt to influence the election in favor of the Republican candidate, Donald Trump.
In a statement issued two weeks after the president said he would respond to cyber-attacks by Moscow “at a time and place of our choosing”, Obama said Americans should “be alarmed by Russia’s actions” and pledged further action. “I have issued an executive order that provides additional authority for responding to certain cyber activity that seeks to interfere with or undermine our election processes and institutions, or those of our allies or partners,” Obama said in the statement, released while he was vacationing with his family in Hawaii.
Annual Operating Budget and Capital Improvement Program

This is a hearing to provide an opportunity for the public to provide input as to what should be included in the Fiscal Year 2017-18 Budget and Capital Improvement Program.
Following the hearing, the comments should be referred to administration for
consideration when preparing the proposed budget.
Good morning, happy New Year.Not much has changed; we're still in a global death spiral marked by the failures of late capitalism, the current world order, and public trust of institutions such as the government and the media, which has manifested itself in the form of a Donald Trump presidency and outright rejection of establishment politicians all across the Western world. Along with further climate destabilization caused by global warming, these problems will surely be exacerbated over the next year, and likely, at least the next four.But hey, look on the brightside: Pat McCrory isn't the damn governor anymore.In a farewell video, Pat McCrory said his accomplishments were "greater than any administration over the past twenty-five years."Whatever helps you sleep at night, buddy.On Wednesday, the State Board of Education sued to stop changes from going into effect that would hand over control of some of its authority to new Superintendent of Public Instruction Mark Johnson.On Friday, Cooper announced legal actions of his own, to stop changes from going into effect at the state Board of Elections, and a judge issued a temporary restraining order.At the first evening session of the year for the Raleigh City Council tomorrow night, the public will be able to provide input as to what should be included in next year's budget.That's all for today.

Now there's a guilty plea for a woman accused of trying to hire a hit man to kill her ex-boyfriend's new girlfriend.
The Valley News reports Monique Earle pleaded guilty Wednesday to two felonies. Earle originally pleaded not guilty in January and was released on $100,000 bond.
Last year, she allegedly offered to pay an undercover officer to kill the other woman.
The 20-year-old served two years in prison for that scheme which was never carried out.
Earle was staying in a homeless shelter last fall and was also pregnant at the time.

Question: Credit Suisse to axe another 6,500 jobs

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

Axe man: Tidjane Thiam took over 18 months ago having been poached from Prudential
Credit Suisse is planning to axe another 6,500 jobs as it seeks to make billions of pounds in savings.
Chief executive Tidjane Thiam, who took over 18 months ago having been poached from Prudential, shed 7,250 staff last year as he battled to turn the Swiss banking giant around.
But chief finance officer David Mathers told analysts yesterday that the bank was now planning to cut between 5,500 and 6,500 more jobs in 2017.
The warning came as the bank lost £1.9billion in 2016 after a £1.6billion charge from US authorities to settle claims of misleading investors.
The Zurich-based bank did not specify where the extra cuts would come from but said it would include contractors, consultants and staff.
Thiam is shifting the group more toward wealth management and putting less emphasis on investment banking.
Despite the loss, the bank proposed an unchanged dividend of 56p per share.
Meanwhile, the bank is still preparing to float 20 per cent to 30 per cent of a Swiss subsidiary it set up in November for retail, corporate and investment clients.

ZURICH Credit Suisse (CSGN.S) will not decide on how it wants to raise fresh capital until after this week's annual general meeting, SonntagsZeitung reported on Sunday.
The Swiss bank is considering a quick-fire share sale or listing 20 to 30 percent of its Swiss business in order to raise between 3 and 6 billion Swiss francs (2.34-4.68 billion pounds) in new capital, the Swiss newspaper said, citing sources close to Chairman Urs Rohner.
The newspaper also reported that Rohner expects all the banks' proposals to be accepted by shareholders at its annual general meeting on Friday.
Rohner told Weltwoche magazine in March the bank had time to decide whether to go ahead with a planned listing of its domestic banking unit, originally envisioned for the second half of 2017.
Reuters had previously reported that Switzerland's second-biggest bank was likely to make a decision in April on how to proceed on raising new capital.
Credit Suisse, which declined to comment, earlier this month offered to cut bonuses for top management by 40 percent and freeze pay for its board of directors in an attempt to quash a shareholder revolt over payouts to senior managers.
Its pay plans included bonuses of 78 million Swiss francs ($78 million) to top executives and higher pay for the board, despite the bank posting a 2.7 billion-franc net loss last year.
Credit Suisse is reassessing its compensation policies, sources told SonntagsZeitung, specifically by expanding options to claw back executive and employee bonuses if their actions have caused costly legal suits and large losses for the bank.

Question: Japan approves contentious bill against planning crimes

Upper house members of the ruling coalition clap their hands after parliament approved a contentious bill that makes it a crime to plan a crime, in Tokyo Thursday, June 15, 2017. The ruling coalition pushed the conspiracy legislation through the upper house, bypassing committee approval that normally precedes a vote by the full house. Kyodo News via AP)

TOKYO (Reuters) - Japan plans to ease restrictions on unskilled foreign workers in five sectors hit hard by labor shortfalls, the Nikkei business daily said on Wednesday, as the country confronts the challenges of a shrinking and aging population.
The government hopes to attract more than 500,000 foreign laborers to nursing, shipbuilding, lodging as well as construction and agricultural industries by around 2025, the newspaper said.
Prospective foreign workers in those sectors can acquire work permits for up to five years by passing occupational and Japanese language tests starting next April, in which they will be required to demonstrate they are capable of understanding slow conversations and conducting basic tasks, the paper said.
A strengthening economy since Prime Minister Shinzo Abe took office in 2012, rebuilding after the 2011 tsunami, a construction boom ahead of the 2020 Tokyo Olympics and a shrinking and aging population have aggravated Japan's labor shortage.
A ban on unskilled foreign workers has raised concerns the labor crunch would cap economic growth in the world's third-largest economy.

The government also plans to allow those in the country's "trainee" program, designed to share technology with developing countries, to remain in Japan after the completion of the program and work for a maximum of five years, the Nikkei said.
Asked about the report, Chief Cabinet Secretary Yoshihide Suga told a regular news conference the government was looking at new ways to attract foreign workers, but that they would not be targeted at unskilled workers.
"We are making consideration so that basic policy direction on a new framework to allow in foreigners with a certain level of specialty and skills will be reflected in the economic policy guidelines," Suga said.
"But this is not a step to allow in so-called unskilled workers."
The economic policy guidelines are scheduled to be compiled in June.

Provided: "['This news article should be represented to find a fitting news title', 'AN attempt to issue a warrant at Texas hardware store has gone horribly wrong, with two police and a security officer being shot.\nDallas police say they know the identity of the suspect who pulled a gun at the Home Depot in Northeast Dallas.

One is believed to be in his twenties.\nThe condition of the security officer is unknown.\nThe suspect is described as a Latin male, wearing a white shirt and blue-jean shorts.\nSpecial weapons (SWAT) teams are searching a creek and reserve near the hardware store.']" Match: "['Represent this title to get a news article that provides more details about it:', 'Gunman shoots police, security guard']"

It came as quite a shock when, in the immediate wake of the Patriots' Super Bowl LII loss to the Eagles, Rob Gronkowski publicly acknowledged that he was considering retirement this offseason. "I'm definitely going to look at my future" and "I'm going to sit down in the next couple of weeks and see where I'm at," he said at the time. Gronk kept us guessing for much of the offseason, with cryptic tweets, reports about his unhappiness during the 2017 season and his frustration with Bill Belichick, and then his absence at the beginning of the Patriots' offseason program.
In late April, he finally made it known that he would indeed play again in 2018. A couple months (and several skipped OTAs) later, Gronk is feeling refreshed and ready to go, he told former Patriot Willie McGinest.
"I am refreshed," Gronkowski said. "You know after the season, long seasons, how your body can feel and everything. I just wanted to see where I was at, and see how I can get my body feeling, see if I can handle it, endure it again, and I feel like I'm super ready, man."
Gronkowski is coming off a season where he caught 69 passes for 1,084 yards and eight touchdowns. Since entering the league in 2010, he's caught 76 touchdown passes, more than anybody in the NFL in that span of time. Heading into Year 9, he is still one of the top players in the game, and likely the best overall player at his position. But he's also cognizant of how each successive year impacts his body, and is taking that into account when preparing for the upcoming season.
"We've got another year, another training camp. Always a grind. Gotta get yourself through that," he said. "Just excited for the season, man. You know how it goes. Another year down. You know what to expect now going into year nine. You know how to do it. I kind of feel like that's always good to have in the back of your mind. You know how it goes down. You know what to do. So I'm super excited for this year."
Pats fans surely have to be excited that Gronk is ready and raring to go, and committed to playing in New England -- especially after those reports earlier this offseason. We'll see if he considers retirement again next offseason but for now, Gronk should be back on the field and dominating once again in 2018.

Tom Brady takes home his third career MVP and joins legends Peyton Manning, Brett Favre and Johnny Unitas as the only quarterbacks to win the award three times. (0:44)
MINNEAPOLIS, Minn. -- Forget that Tom Brady shattered NFL records as a 40-year-old quarterback in the 2017 season, playing some of his best football in his 18-year career.
Brady didn't just dominate the 40-year-old age bracket; his excellence extended across the entire NFL. And on Saturday night, he became the oldest player to win the NFL's Most Valuable Player award.
Patriots wide receiver Julian Edelman accepted the MVP on Brady's behalf at the NFL Honors awards ceremony in Minneapolis. The quarterback later posted a message via the Patriots' Twitter account, thanking his teammates, as well as the younger players around the league who continue to inspire him.
A message from the MVP: pic.twitter.com/bHuJGvy6Vy — New England Patriots (@Patriots) February 4, 2018
Brady earned 40 votes in balloting by a nationwide media panel, easily winning over Los Angeles Rams running back Todd Gurley (eight) and Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz (two).
"There's no quarterback I'd rather have on my team than Tom Brady," Pats coach Bill Belichick said leading up to Sunday's Super Bowl LII showdown against the Eagles. "I'm glad I have him."
Brady, who also was league MVP in 2007 and 2010, will try to win his sixth Super Bowl title Sunday. The last NFL MVP to win the Super Bowl was Kurt Warner in the 1999 season.

Voted first-team All-Pro for the 2017 regular season, Brady was 385-of-581 for a league-high 4,577 yards, with 32 touchdowns and 8 interceptions, while leading the Patriots to a 13-3 record.
In addition to being the oldest to win NFL MVP, Brady is the oldest QB to start in the Super Bowl and the oldest to lead the NFL in passing yards. Fran Tarkenton, with 3,468 yards in 1978 at age 38 with Minnesota, previously held the distinction.
Brady's historic season at 40 has been a topic that has followed him all season, which he has embraced by highlighting his commitment to his craft and producing the documentary "Tom vs. Time," with the first four installments released in the week leading up to Super Bowl LII.

"I learned that I need to invest in my body, and invest in the things that are going to make me feel good, or else I would have stopped playing 10 years ago," he said. "I don't think there is any way you can continue to play if your body can't do it."
Brady joined 12 other quarterbacks since the 1970 merger to start an NFL game past age 40. The oldest player to attempt a pass in a game was George Blanda at age 48 as a member of the Oakland Raiders in the final game of his career, on Dec. 21, 1975.
Brady also became the fourth Patriots player to play at 40, joining quarterbacks Doug Flutie (43 in 2005) and Vinny Testaverde (43 in 2006) and linebacker Junior Seau (40 in 2009).
As for why he can continue to play, he said in the days leading up to Super Bowl LII: "I just think I love the game. It's easy to do this when you love it. I think the point is: If you find something you love to do, it never feels like work. I found football, and I found it at a young age, and I just loved it.
"It's hard to explain -- I just love the preparation, I love the offseason, I love the film work. I think a big part of it is because my body feels good, and I've worked hard [at that]. ... I think for a lot of older players, their body doesn't respond. And football is no fun when you're hurting."
On Sunday, at 40 years and 185 days, Brady will become the oldest nonkicker to play in a Super Bowl.

Question: NFC East Roundup: Tony Romo Upset With Cowboys?

Represent the article to find a fitting news title

With the regular season wrapped up, let’s check in with the rest of the NFC East and see what’s going on with the other three teams in the division.
We’ll begin with the Dallas Cowboys, who lost to the Eagles yesterday afternoon, 27-13, where many of the Dallas backups played. Tony Romo saw his first action of the season, and led the Cowboys to their only touchdown on his lone drive of the game. Speaking of Romo, it appears his time as Dallas’ starting quarterback is done. It’s Dak Prescott‘s job to lose, and Romo doesn’t sound thrilled about it, according to Mac Engel of the Dallas Morning News.
As evidenced by Romo’s 6-minute postgame press conference, he clearly does not agree with any of this. He was brief, and wanted to avoid “existential questions” … whatever that means. “I just wanted to prove to myself and prove to the coaches and to the teammates that I can be the same guy,” Romo said. Tony is not dumb; he knows the storylines and the questions. He’s not answering them not to be rude, but rather to avoid any headline that is about him, even if that is impossible.
Randy Gregory showed why he’s a valuable part of the defense, recording seven tackles and a sack in his second game of the season. But he may not be available for the playoffs due to another violation of the NFL’s substance abuse policy, pens Defensive endshowed why he’s a valuable part of the defense, recording seven tackles and a sack in his second game of the season. But he may not be available for the playoffs due to another violation of the NFL’s substance abuse policy, pens Jon Machota of the Dallas Morning News
Cowboys executive vice president Stephen Jones said Sunday that Gregory will have an appeal hearing “in the next week to 10 days.” The second-year defensive end is appealing his latest suspension for violating the NFL’s substance abuse policy. If the suspension is upheld, Gregory will not be able to participate in the playoffs. With many Cowboys starters sitting out Sunday’s season finale against the Eagles, the former second-round pick played the majority of the day. He recorded his first career sack, another tackle for loss, a quarterback hit and was second on the team with seven tackles. “It was a long time coming,” Gregory said. “I felt a little bit of pressure to get it, and finally being able to get it felt real good. I think I hustled real well. That was probably what I was more proud of, how much I hustled more so than the sack.”
The Cowboys have the top seed in the NFC Playoffs and will host the lowest remaining seed from the Wild Card round at AT&T Stadium on Sunday, January 15.
Moving on to the New York Giants, who also had nothing to play for, but defeated Washington, 19-10. The Giants want to have the best defense in the league, and with another shut down performance, the New York Post’s Bart Hubbuch writes that they can hang with the best.
“That’s our mindset: defense wins championships,” said safety Landon Collins, who had a team-high eight tackles and one of the four sacks. “We want to be the best defense in the league, and — boom — we’re going to keep running for it.” The Giants looked like they would hold Washington without an offensive touchdown for the first time all year until [Kirk] Cousins hit Jordan Reed with a 1-yard touchdown pass with 8:13 left in the game, but all that play ended up doing was firing up defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo’s unit even more. The Giants forced two turnovers after Reed’s score, with the biggest one being Rodgers-Cromartie’s second pick of Cousins when he stepped in front of Pierre Garcon at the New York 25. The Giants were particularly merciless with Cousins, harassing him all afternoon and sacking him four times. Three of those sacks were by defensive backs as Spagnuolo unleashed the blitz on Washington’s veteran quarterback.
The emergence of Perkins as a force in the running game is what the Giants need as they prepare for the playoffs, notes Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News.
Ben McAdoo wanted his offense more confident in a sustained rushing attack and he accomplished that goal at FedEx Field, pounding the ball as a team for a season-high 161 rushing yards complemented by Rashad Jennings (14 carries, 44 yards, one touchdown, 3.14 yards per carry). “It was nice to run the ball to end the year in a big game like this,” left guard Justin Pugh said. Perkins has shown better burst and vision than Jennings. The rookie has out-carried Jennings for two straight weeks, and the former Bruin said he was most pleased with his yards after contact on Sunday. He took a 22-yard jaunt for his long run of the day. “Nothing changed,” Perkins said of his first career start. “Just nerves. Having that moment coming out first, the defense is ready licking their chops, and the crowd is hype. Getting my nerves under control was the biggest thing.”
The Giants are the top Wild Card team and will take on the NFC North champion Green Bay Packers at Lambeau Field on Sunday afternoon.
And finally to Washington, who was eliminated from playoff contention with the loss to the Giants. Kirk Cousins threw for 287 yards and a touchdown along with two interceptions. In a very important game for his future with the team, Cousins failed to come up clutch, writes Barry Svrluga of the Washington Post.
Parsing the specifics is part of Cousins’s job, how he learns from mistakes and moves on. Here, though, such nit-picky assessments served only as distractions from the issues that matter in the weeks and months — and years? — ahead. What the crowd at FedEx Field wanted out of Sunday was a relaxing, satisfying victory — over a team that didn’t have much to play for — and the second straight trip to the playoffs that would have accompanied it. What it got instead wasn’t just the instant frustration of the season’s end, but that uneasy feeling of not being able to emotionally commit, completely and unabashedly, to the most important player on the team. There’s no way around it: The fact that Cousins twice was presented the opportunity to win the game, and twice failed to win it, means we have inevitable intrigue about whether the team and the quarterback will continue a relationship that is both fruitful — the two gaudiest seasons in terms of passing yards in the franchise’s history — and fraught with moments like Sunday, when he could have run for a first down, but instead threw that late, season-ending pick. Last year, Washington placed the franchise tag on Cousins to keep him around for a season and $19.95 million, and it seemed the prudent thing to do — allowing the club to further evaluate its player, and the player to develop in his second season as a starter. But what was supposed to come of that season was a clear answer. And not just clarity in stats, but in how the town and the team felt about him going forward.
CSN Mid-Atlantic’s Rich Tandler previews some of the decisions the team will have to face as they enter the long offseason.
Set the philosophy: Scot McCloughan loves to talk about building through the draft but then when Josh Norman became available the Redskins dropped a $15 million per year contract on him. The Redskins will have at least $60 million in cap space even after that big deal. McCloughan is going to have to decide if he is going to try to fill some needs in free agency or stick with the draft and leave a pile of unspent cap money. Decide what to do with Cousins: The franchise tag is very much an option. His salary will jump from just under $20 million to just under $24 million, an increase that can be handled by a jump in the salary cap that should be in excess of $10 million. The better option would be a long-term deal but that will be a bear to negotiate. Supply and demand of even competent quarterbacks pushes the money up there. It may well take a contract north of $23 million per year to lock him up for the next several years. Improving the defensive line: The Redskins need to quit relying on the likes of Ziggy Hood and Cullen Jenkins playing significant snaps on the D-line and get some more talent in the building. The first decision will be whether or not to bring back Chris Baker, the team’s best defensive lineman who will be a 29-year-old free agent in March. Should they bring him back with a significant contract or should they move on and start from scratch? There will be options in free agency, where McCloughan’s record is spotty, and in the draft, where McCloughan can’t seem to find a lineman who meets his standards for “a football player”. The two receivers: Pierre Garçon and DeSean Jackson will both be free agents. With the cap space they will have available they likely could afford to sign them both. But investing heavily in two wide receiver who turned 30 recently may not be proper cap management. That makes it seem very unlikely that both will return but it’s certainly possible that one of them will. There also is a chance that neither will.
Just like the Eagles, the Washington’s season is over. Plenty of offseason questions remain, such as what to do with Cousins. Offensive coordinator Sean McVay is also reportedly interviewing for the head coaching job with the Los Angeles Rams.

Grant Hughes National NBA Featured Columnist
SACRAMENTO, Calif. — DeMarcus Cousins will spend the rest of the 2016-17 NBA season walking on eggshells.
Having already served a league-mandated suspension for accruing 16 technical fouls, Cousins faces subsequent one-game bans for every two additional violations. Subduing emotion has always been difficult for the All-Star big man, but now the penalty for failure is more severe than ever.
Every incident that could produce a shout, scowl or diatribe against officials suddenly comes at a steeper price. Errant hands to the face of Donatas Motiejunas get extra scrutiny, for example. Reactions to low blows from Buddy Hield, obvious no-calls and every other potential outburst could result in another team-crippling suspension.
And you'd better believe it's weighing on Cousins.
"I don't know how to be myself anymore," he said softly from his locker stall at the Golden 1 Center on Friday night.
The Kings had just engineered a 22-point comeback to steal a win from the visiting Atlanta Hawks, but more importantly, it was Cousins' first night back from his initial suspension. He admitted the threat of future discipline affected his performance. Hence the miniature existential emergency.
"It's well known I'm a very emotional player," Cousins later explained to Bleacher Report. "I play with a lot of passion, a lot of emotion. I know that's what makes me the player that I am. When I'm kind of crucified for how I play, and they want change, it's hard for me to be the same type of player...It's just me trying to find the balance. I'm trying to make the adjustment, I'm trying to make the change for the better."
Can he sustain his productivity while snuffing out the fire that led to his suspension? And can he do it as the pressure of the season's stretch run intensifies?

Cousins understands the stakes. He knows his team is within sniffing distance of the franchise's first playoff berth since 2007. And he knows one game lost to suspension here or there could be the difference between reaching what he's called his only goal and falling short again.
"The guy's trying so hard," head coach Dave Joerger said. "He's an emotional player, so it's like he's playing with one hand behind his back if he can't ever say anything. He doesn't want to hurt the team. He doesn't want to get another technical."
Cousins survived the comeback win against Atlanta without incurring tech No. 17, but it was no easy thing. He was sluggish, visibly frustrated and unable to hide the strain of, well...restraint. Is his effectiveness divisible from his emotion?
"I'm dealing with my own demons right now," he said. "I've got to focus on what's going on at the moment, and I did a terrible job of that."
Two nights later, Cousins was assessed a first-quarter technical foul for an errant swing of the arm that caught New Orleans Pelicans forward Motiejunas in the face. In order to compose himself, Cousins actually left the floor and went to the locker room.

"It was kind of hard for me with that one because of the situation that had just occurred where I come back and the slightest thing and I'm back (facing suspension)," Cousins said. "It's hard, but I had to gather myself, refocus and get back to the main objective which is winning the game. I've got to walk the straight and narrow. It's all I can do."
Sacramento won that game as well, getting 28 points, 14 rebounds and seven assists from its best player—despite an ejection-triggering groin shot from Pelicans guard Hield. It was as if the basketball gods were testing Boogie. To his credit, he passed. Plenty of players with less volatile reputations would have snapped in that situation.
But so many more games lie ahead. So many more trials have yet to be undertaken. And, again, Cousins' margin for error is basically nil.
How he handles the challenge he's helped create for himself (despite protestations about unfair treatment from officials, he is partly responsible for his situation) will either signal the kind of growth so many have been waiting to see or reaffirm the doubts that have dogged him for years.
Thearon W. Henderson/Getty Images
He'll have help.
"I lean on all my teammates, not just Matt (Barnes). But he is the voice of our team. Everybody leans on Matt when times get hard because he's been through it all, seen it all on all levels."
Barnes, like Cousins, is no stranger to image problems.
"He's got a tough rap—the reputation he's earned," Barnes told ESPN-Tencent's Yuan Fang. "Whether it's good or bad. We both have bad and that took me my whole career to change mine and it hasn't worked. He just has to be able to adjust within his reputation and still be himself. He has to keeps his head."
Barnes has been a calming figure all season, which may seem odd given his volatile reputation. He commands respect like no on else on the roster, and you can see it in the locker room and on the floor. When the Kings found life in the second half against Atlanta, they did so after Barnes gathered his teammates together at the foul line before the third quarter.
When he motioned for a huddle, everyone—Cousins included—hustled over, leaned in close and listened to the veteran as he clapped his hands and exhorted them to perform.
"I thought Matt did a good job of really talking to us the whole game," Darren Collison said. "He was the leader when things weren't going well."
This is about more than Cousins' personal journey, though. The Kings have professed commitment to their big man, with general manager Vlade Divac saying Cousins won't be traded. A contract extension worth upwards of $200 million will likely come by July.
Cousins could validate that faith by adjusting his behavior and upping his level of play. Or he could falter and, in doing so, force the Kings to reconsider their committed stance. Worse still, he might come up short and get that max extension anyway, which would effectively consign Sacramento to another half-decade of maddening sub-mediocrity.
We've seen a lot from DeMarcus Cousins over the last six years.
He's got six weeks to show us something more.
Kings Insider's Notebook
Free Willie
Joerger is loath to play Willie Cauley-Stein with Cousins, which is probably frustrating for fans who'd like to see athleticism like this alongside the proven productivity of an All-Star big man:

But Sacramento's defense has been untenably bad in the 119 minutes the duo has played together, and it's only gotten worse as the season has worn on. In 50 minutes since Jan. 1, the Kings have allowed 118.1 points per 100 possessions with Cousins and Cauley-Stein on the court.
That's not to say Cauley-Stein's without his uses. Lately, his energy and rim-rolling prowess have charged up the Kings' scrappy second unit. He put up 14 points, five rebounds and four assists in a Feb. 8 win over the Boston Celtics.
"He's getting to balls that are outside of his area, and I think he's a lot more comfortable with our defensive schemes and also our offensive schemes where he can find seams to get to the rim."
In limited minutes as part of a unit with Anthony Tolliver, Matt Barnes, Ben McLemore and either Darren Collison or Ty Lawson, Cauley-Stein has solidified himself as a rotation player with upside. That's good timing by him, as Cousins figures to miss a few games before season's end, which will free up minutes in the middle.
Return of the Mac
Does it count as a return if Ben McLemore's viability as an NBA player was never really certain in the first place?
Rather than worry about the details, check this out: McLemore is tearing it up since regaining a role after six consecutive DNPs.
In February, he's averaging 13.3 points per game and hitting 50 percent of his threes. His 22 points and 6-of-10 effort from long distance were vital in Friday's win over Atlanta.
"He's always been a good shooter to me, it was just a matter of time for him to really turn the corner," Darren Collison said. "One thing about Ben, even when he wasn't playing, he was always in the gym. First one in the gym, last one to leave."
Cousins, as you'd expect, was more forthright: "Ben is like a little brother to me. It's bigger than basketball, just to see him remain positive, remain professional through the bulls--t and things not going his way ... I think he's hitting his stride.

It's fitting the Kings are scrambling to make up ground in the West after an uninspiring first half of the season (or 50-plus games, as the case may be). Because that seems to be the way they operate.

On the one hand, failing to show up for games before halftime is a concern. But, on the other, the Kings have been forced to develop resiliency.
"Our fight and our heart is undeniable," Cousins said. "I believe everybody here can agree with me on that. That being said, we can't keep putting ourselves in that position. We gotta make these games easier for ourselves."
Not getting blasted in every first quarter (the Kings lost all three opening periods in their three-game winning streak) would be a good start.

Question: Pacific trade pact nations meet to discuss future without U.S.

OTTAWA Negotiators from the remaining members of the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) gathered in Canada on Tuesday seeking ways to boost free trade in the region after the United States pulled out of the 12-nation pact.
The withdrawal killed off years of negotiations and left the region looking for ways to deepen economic ties without a United States that appears increasingly suspicious of multilateral deals.
The two-day meeting of senior officials in Toronto will deliver recommendations in time for an Asian trade ministers' meeting in Vietnam later this month.
Japanese Finance Minister Taro Aso said last month Tokyo would not rule out the option of negotiating a TPP-type agreement without the United States.
Joseph Pickerill, chief spokesman for Canadian Trade Minister Francois-Philippe Champagne, said officials will be looking at what kind of free trade arrangement or framework for the region would receive the most support.
"I wouldn't characterize it as being TPP part two," he said.
Asked about the chances of pressing ahead with "a TPP-minus-one deal," Champagne said on Monday: "We're going to see, and that's why we're meeting next in Vietnam. But what's important now is to look at all options".
President Donald Trump pulled the United States out of the TPP in late January, complaining about "ridiculous trade deals" he said had damaged the U.S. economy.
In March, Canadian Foreign Minister Chrystia Freeland said the TPP as originally drawn up could not exist without U.S. ratification, adding that some "sort of other combination of TPP interested countries could happen".

Question: Fired Walmart employee returns to store to retrieve heroin he left behind, sheriff’s department says

Please enable Javascript to watch this video
TACOMA, Wash. - An employee who was fired from a Washington State Walmart for allegedly trying to steal a safe returned to the store days later to try to retrieve what he had left in the safe - his drugs, according to the Pierce County Sheriff's Department.
"On Sunday morning the fired employee called the Walmart store and said that he was coming in to pick up a safe that he 'forgot' at the store," the sheriff's department said in a report on its Facebook page. "Thinking this was suspicious, loss prevention employees opened the safe that the man had previously attempted to steal from the store ... and inside they discovered a yellow container that held a stash of heroin and Xanax."
Police said that when the fired employee arrived at the Walmart, customer service asked him what was inside it and he told them there was a yellow container that had his "medication" inside; employees called 911.
"When deputies arrived the man started crying; he told the deputies the safe was his, and the yellow container and narcotics were his. He went on to say that he paid $350 for them," the sheriff's department said.
The 24-year-old was booked into the Pierce County Jail for unlawful possession of a controlled substance.

Question: Price of Norwegian farmed salmon seen falling to NOK 47.5-48/kilo next week

OSLO, Feb 2 (Reuters) - The price of Norway’s farmed salmon is expected to drop to 47.5-48 crowns per kilo for deliveries in Oslo next week from about 53 crowns in the current week, industry sources told Reuters on Friday.
“It’s difficult. Prices are down 5 crowns and we are at about 48 crowns per kilo in Oslo,” said an exporter who declined to be named.
A producer confirmed the price drop.
“There are mixed opinions but we expect 47.5 crowns in Oslo. It has been a tough week due to more supply,” the producer said.
Salmon prices peaked at around 80 crowns per kilo in early January of 2017 at a time when supply constraints supported prices, but have since fallen as volumes grew.
Production growth from Norway is expected to be around 9 percent in 2018, the Norwegian Seafood Council predicted in early January.
Norway is the world’s top salmon exporter, and the share price of listed farming companies depends heavily on changes in the price of fish.
Average production costs for whole fish, including the cost of harvesting, rose by 13 percent to 34.29 crowns per kilo in 2016, according to data from the Norwegian Directorate of Fisheries.
Leading Norwegian producers include Marine Harvest, Salmar, Leroy Seafood, Grieg Seafood and Norway Royal Salmon. (Reporting by Ole Petter Skonnord, editing by Terje Solsvik)

Question: Davies storms to win in Magny Cours

CHAZ Davies tasted glory with a podium finish in the 11th round of the World Superbike Championship (WSBK) at Magny Cours last weekend.
Victory in race two in France represented the Aruba.it Racing - Ducati team its eighth overall win of the season.
Meanwhile victory ensured the Presteigne star kept alive his bid to claim second place in the overall championship with two rounds remaining.
Davies endured a frustrating start to the weekend and despite racing to second place on race one his challenge would be undermined by electrical, braking and acceleration issues culminating in a disappointing 10th place finish.
However Davies hit back in race two to claim the 27th win of his career.
Davies set the pace from the start, establishing a five second gap on his closest challenger to cross the line with full points and bring his tally for the campaign to 327 points to remain in third overall
The Aruba.it Racing - Ducati team will resume action at Jerez de la Frontera in Spain in the penultimate round of the championship on October 20-22.
Davies said: “Sunday’s race was the best way to put behind us a couple of tough races. I woke up feeling really motivated and I think it showed in the opening laps, as I was making passes and got to the front pretty quickly from 11th position.
“It wasn’t an easy race though. The rain was on and off throughout, and it was hard to tell where the wet patches could be. It was a matter of pushing hard but not too much, just enough to keep the gap in check, and that’s what we did.
“Now we’re looking forward to the last two races, the hunt for second position in the championship is still open and we can be fast both in Jerez and Qatar.”

Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton are heading to the Super Bowl with the kids in tow. Stefani shared a video on Snapchat on Friday of her and her three kids — Kingston, 11, Zuma, 9, and Apollo, 3 — preparing to board a private jet to Minneapolis.
Hollywood Life reported on Gwen’s video in which she shared with her fans that they were all on their way to the 2018 Super Bowl. The singer took footage of the huge task of loading everyone up to get out of town for the big game. She also showed the snacks and decorations that were on their plane. Blake was in the video for a brief time as she was unloading his truck on the airport runway.
Gwen Stefani used humorous filters in the social platform’s special features, such as inflating the size of her entire mouth. She’s a goofball at heart when it comes to her fun clips.
According to the report, Gwen will perform at the Mystic Lake Casino & Hotel in Minnesota. It appears that she and Blake are making a family event out of the journey by watching the Super Bowl before her scheduled gig!

Question: Few good alternatives to Palestinian state

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

JERUSALEM (AP) — The Trump Administration appears to be easing away from longstanding U.S. support for Palestinian statehood as the preferred outcome of Middle East peace efforts, which may please some allies of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Israel. But the alternatives are few, and each comes with daunting and combustible complications, including for Israel itself. The idea of two states in the Holy Land – a Jewish Israel and an Arab Palestine – rests on a particular logic: There are two quite different peoples of roughly equal size living between the Mediterranean Sea and the Jordan River; each wants their own nation-state to control and dominate numerically; each has shown tenacity toward this goal. This would require Israel to let go of most and maybe all of the territory it captured in the 1967 war, when it completed its takeover of all the land that British colonizers abandoned in 1948. That includes the West Bank, where there are now islands of Palestinian autonomy, scattered Jewish settlements and overriding Israeli military control; the eastern part of Jerusalem, which Israel has fully annexed and populated with Jews; and the coastal Gaza Strip, which was actually evacuated in 2005 and is now blockaded and controlled by the Islamic militants of Hamas. Over the years many and probably most Israelis have come around to the idea of a partition largely because they want to be considered a democracy and do not want all the Palestinian future citizens that would come along with the territory. For almost two decades, U.S. policy has been to advocate a two-state solution. But over two decades of peace talks have failed to produce agreement on the details, and many on both sides consider it impossible without a major change in circumstances – massive global pressure on Israel, more upheaval in the Arab neighborhoods, perhaps tectonic shifts in the prevailing world order. Ahead of Wednesday’s White House meeting between President Donald Trump and Netanyahu, a senior U.S. official suggested a two-state solution was optional, bringing condemnation from Palestinian officials. But many of them have for years been quietly preparing for an alternative strategy of a single bi-national state in the Holy Land. Here’s a look at that option, and other scenarios that might arise: ONE STATE For years this was the goal of the Palestine Liberation Organization, and for many Palestinians it is indeed the preferred option: a single democratic state, not defined as specifically Jewish or Arab, in the area of British colonial Palestine. Many prefer it anyway to the two-state notion whereby even if Israel gives up all the land it captured in 1967 it retains almost 80% of Palestine. The problem is that almost no one in Israel is arguing for the true extension of full rights to Palestinians in the currently occupied territories because even with Gaza excluded it would leave Arabs constituting close to half the country’s population – and that is clearly the end of the Zionist dream of a Jewish state. This is why Israel has never annexed the West Bank and why the more sophisticated nationalists profess to support a partition, albeit on terms the Palestinians have not accepted and are not likely to. If the Palestinians formally drop the two-state strategy and demand incorporation into Israel it will put Israel in the awkward position of refusing to annex territories where it has been settling Jews for decades. Down this path lie coercion efforts in the form of international sanctions on Israel, or Palestinian violence. INTERIM AGREEMENT Many Israelis have concluded that a final peace agreement with the Palestinians is simply not possible because the Palestinians are asking for the moon as a result of a feeling that they hold the demographic cards. It is not just about territory: the Palestinians still in theory demand a “right of return” to Israel proper for millions of descendants of Palestinian refugees living around the region and the world, which the vast majority of Jewish Israelis reject. But perhaps a partial deal is possible whereby the Palestinians would not have to forego future claims but for now get their state on, say, 80% of the West Bank, with some sort of preferred access of new regime in the Old City of Jerusalem? Even the current nationalist Netanyahu government would probably accept such a thing, but the Palestinians have ruled it out, fearing the temporary would become permanent. To get them to agree would require massive global and Arab world pressure, and risks huge internal conflict among the Palestinians. JORDANIAN OPTION Jordan took over the West Bank and east Jerusalem during the 1948-1949 Arab-Israel war that followed the British pullout, lost the areas to Israel in 1967 and then gave up all claims to them in favor of the Palestinians in the 1980s. But Jordan is a country with a majority Palestinian-descended population, and some Israelis still think that it can play a role in satisfying Palestinian national aspirations and resuming control over only a part of the West Bank. But this would probably require a collapse of Hashemite rule, founded on Jordan’s Bedouin population, and as such is anathema to the Jordanian monarchy, which is beloved by many israelis for making peace with them in 1994. Adding to the awkwardness, the Palestinians reject it altogether as well. PARTIAL UNILATERAL PULLOUT Under these vexing circumstances many Israelis conclude no peace is possible, but they still want to be rid of the Palestinian population of the West Bank. In the mid-2000s the government of Ehud Olmert planned a unilateral pullout from most of the territory, to follow the 2005 withdrawal from Gaza. But those plans were upended when Gaza was taken over by Hamas militants and became a launching pad for rocket attacks on Israel, leading to several mini-wars. Few want to see that scenario repeated with the West Bank, which is much larger and closer to Israel’s main cities. Now talk grows of a pullout of settlers from some areas, to create a more convincing reality of partition, while the military stays for now, pending some future arrangement. NATO? A global or Arab peacekeeping force? Perpetual Israeli control? No one can say. STATUS QUO When the best that can be hoped for is the least bad solution, the status quo looks attractive to some. But Israel is constantly changing the landscape by adding settlers – already there are some 350,000 Israelis in the West Bank and a quarter million in East Jerusalem. And the Palestinians do not have a history of acquiescing for long: There were multi-year uprisings in the late 1980s and early 2000s and a spate of violence in late 2015 and early 2016. Down this path lies the very strong likelihood of more. — Dan Perry is AP’s Middle East editor leading text coverage in the region.

Question: Big Ben's bongs to fall silent for FOUR YEARS for repairs

Parliament's famous Big Ben bell is to fall silent for four years while £30million worth of repairs are carried out to stop it falling apart.
The regular timekeeping chimes will 'pause' until 2021 - although they will still be sounded to mark occasions such as New Year.
The period of silence is far longer than was envisaged when the project was announced in April last year, when the Commons authorities suggested it would be a matter of months.
There are also fears that costs could be set to spiral as contracts have yet to be signed to carry out the work.
Parliamentary officials said members of the public will be welcome to gather outside the building to hear the famous sounds for the last time at noon next Monday.
The Great Clock was last stopped for maintenance in 2007, when workmen abseiled down the face to carry out cleaning
The 315ft (96m) Elizabeth Tower, which was completed in 1856, needs work to repair cracks in the masonry, corrosion to the cast-iron roof and belfry and the frame which holds the bells - including Big Ben.
Parts of the Great Clock, which was installed in 1859, require urgent investigation and repair and many of the 312 pieces of pot opal glass used to make up each of the clock faces need to be replaced.
Scaffolding has already been erected around the tower - although the procurement process for the work has yet to be completed.
Steve Jaggs, Keeper of the Great Clock, said: “Big Ben falling silent is a significant milestone in this crucial conservation project.
'As Keeper of the Great Clock I have the great honour of ensuring this beautiful piece of Victorian engineering is in top condition on a daily basis.
'This essential programme of works will safeguard the clock on a long term basis, as well as protecting and preserving its home – the Elizabeth Tower.
'Members of the public are welcome to mark this important moment by gathering in Parliament Square to hear Big Ben’s final bongs until they return in 2021.”
Under the renovation plans, the faces of the Great Clock are also set to be given a new colour scheme, with the Commons authorities eager to reflect the original design by Augustus Pugin.
The existing black and gold colouring around the clock faces was applied in the 1980s and experts from Parliament's team of conservation architects are analysing the original paint used to decorate the areas surrounding each dial.
The 315ft Elizabeth Tower, which was completed in 1856, needs work to repair cracks in the masonry, corrosion to the cast-iron roof and belfry and the frame which holds the bells - including Big Ben
The original colours are believed to have been gold and green, although some claim that royal blue also featured until the 1930s.
The Great Bell, popularly known as Big Ben, weighs 13.7 tonnes and strikes every hour to the note of E.
It is accompanied by four quarter bells, which chime every 15 minutes.
Big Ben has marked the hour for the past 157 years with only brief breaks.
It last fell silent for maintenance in 2007, and prior to that between 1983 and 1985.
The Great Clock has a Victorian-built clockwork mechanism, which relies on gravity to trigger the sounds.
To stop the bells the striking hammers will be locked and the bell disconnected from the clock mechanism.
The clock will continue to tell the time, and will be temporarily reconnected for events such as New Year’s Eve and Remembrance Sunday.
The bells will resume their regular time keeping duties in the course of 2021.

BRITAIN COULD KEEP EU CUSTOMS ARRANGEMENTS FOR INTERIM PERIOD, DAVIS SAYS
Britain could keep the same customs arrangements with the European Union for an interim period in order to avoid "unnecessary disruption" for UK businesses, David Davis has said.
The Brexit Secretary will publish a paper on Tuesday outlining proposals for a time-limited transition, meaning businesses on both sides of the Channel only have to adapt once to rule changes.
Temporary arrangements could allow trade deals to be negotiated with other countries while governments and businesses adjust to new arrangements.
RAIL COMMUTERS TO FIND OUT COST OF SEASON TICKET INCREASES
Rail commuters will find out today how much the cost of season tickets will increase by next year, as trade unions hold protests warning that passengers are paying "more for less".
The Government links the annual January rise in Britain's regulated fares with the previous July's Retail Price Index (RPI) measure of inflation, which will be announced by the Office for National Statistics (ONS) at 9.30am.
It is predicted to be around 3.5%, leading to the highest increase in fares in five years.
FOOD PRICE RISES EXPECTED TO FUEL INFLATION AS WAGE GROWTH LAGS BEHIND
The increasing cost of the shopping basket is expected to have contributed to a rise in inflation when figures are released later.
A rise in the overall cost of living is due to be shown in the latest round of official data, which is expected to show the Retail Price Index (RPI) hit 3.5% in July, in line with the figure seen in June.
Meanwhile rail passengers will discover how much more they will pay for their travel in the new year, as July's figures are used to calculate any rise.

EX-FOOTBALLER CHRIS KILLEN TO BE SENTENCED FOR SEX ATTACK ON YOUNG WOMAN
A former professional footballer is to be sentenced for a sex attack on a young woman as she slept in her bed.
Ex-Manchester City and Celtic player Chris Killen was in a "stupefied state" from alcohol when he went into the spare bedroom of the house the woman was staying in, in Bury, Greater Manchester, and touched her sexually.
Killen admitted a single charge of sexual assault shortly before he was due to go on trial before a jury at Minshull Street Crown Court, Manchester, on June 21 - having earlier pleaded not guilty.
