The 'A Million Little Things' Season 3, Episode 3 Promo Unravels Eddie's Mystery
The writers of A Million Little Things love a good mystery, and Season 3 is digging into a big one: the question of who hit Eddie at the end of Season 2? The hit-and-run accident left Eddie paralyzed, and now a person from Eddie's past, Reverend Stewart, keeps popping up near Eddie. The A Million Little Things Season 3, Episode 3 promo shows that fans might finally get some answers about how Reverend Stewart factors in Eddie's mystery.
Warning: Spoilers for A Million Little Things Season 3, Episode 3 follow. When A Million Little Things returned for Season 3, audiences learned that Eddie (David Giuntoli) survived his accident and that Alex's dad, Reverend Stewart (Gerard Plunkett) was on the scene when it happened. He called 911 and then drove away, which left fans wondering exactly if and how he was involved with the accident. Since Eddie was with Reverend Stewart's daughter Alex the night she died, there's a chance the Reverend is trying to now trying to get back at Eddie.
In the promo for Season 3, Episode 3, Eddie's wife Katherine (Grace Park) looks at security footage from outside her home and notices a red pickup truck parked. She notes that the car that hit Eddie was also a red pickup truck. It seems like she's going to realize that driver who hit Eddie might not be finished with him yet.
Since Reverend Stewart also drives a red pickup truck, there's a lot of evidence that points to him being the mystery driver. But, series creator DJ Nash hinted to Us Weekly that it might not be that obvious. He said, "Who hit Eddie is part of the mystery we'll be following. Some may feel it's the drunk guy at the bar. Some may think it's Alex's dad or somebody else altogether."
Reverend Stewart has stopped by Eddie's house a few times already this season. First, he watched Eddie and Katherine's vow renewal ceremony from his parked car, and then he rang the doorbell and met Katherine and Theo (Tristan Byon) at the end of Season 3, Episode 2. In the promo for Season 3, Episode 3, Reverend Stewart and Eddie finally meet face to face again, so it looks like fans will get some answers about how he was involved in the accident and what exactly he wants from Eddie now.
Season 3 of A Million Little Things continues on Thursday, Dec. 10 at 10 p.m. ET on ABC.

Michigan v. Tucker - 417 U.S. 433, 94 S. Ct. 2357 (1974)
The procedural safeguards, known as the Miranda rules, are not themselves rights protected by the Constitution but are instead measures to insure that the right against compulsory self-incrimination is protected.
Prior to the actual police interrogation of a suspect arrested on a charge of rape, defendant Thomas Wayne Tucker answered questions of the police by stating, insofar as relevant, that he did not want an attorney and that he understood his constitutional rights. The police further advised Tucker that any statements he might make could be used against him at a later date in court, but did not advise him that Tucker, as an indigent, would be furnished counsel free of charge. During the interrogation he named an alibi witness, Henderson, whose later statements discredited Tucker's account as to where he spent the night of the crime. These events all occurred prior to the date of Miranda v Arizona, 384 U.S. 436, 16 L.Ed.2d 694, 86 S.Ct. 1602, 10 A.L.R.3d 974, which required that an indigent in-custody suspect be advised of his right to appointment of counsel. Prior to Tucker's post-Miranda trial in a Michigan state court, the trial court, although excluding Tucker's own statements taken during the interrogation, denied defendant's motion to exclude the testimony of Henderson, who testified at the trial at which Tucker was convicted. His conviction was affirmed by both the Michigan Court of Appeals and by the Michigan Supreme Court. Tucker then filed a petition for habeas corpus in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan, which granted the requested relief on the ground that Henderson's testimony could not be admitted since the application of such an exclusionary rule was necessary to protect defendant's Fifth Amendment right against compulsory self-incrimination. The United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit affirmed without opinion. The United States Supreme Court granted the State's petition for certiorari review.
Should a witness' testimony have been excluded because it violated a defendant's right against compulsory self-incrimination?
Holding that the police's failure to fully give the defendant his Miranda warnings only implicated the prophylactic standards of the warnings, and not the U.S. Const. amend V. privilege against self-incrimination that they were designed to protect, theUnited States Supreme Court reversed the judgment. The Court noted that Tucker had been apprised of his right to counsel, that he had stated that he did not want an attorney, and that the only defect was the failure to inform Tucker that counsel would be provided free if he could not afford one. The Court held that this was a far cry from the compulsory incrimination prohibited by the Fifth Amendment, which Miranda was designed to prevent. The Court held that this failure did not require the exclusion of evidence obtained as a result of the statement, particularly where the statement itself was excluded. The Court noted Tucker's statement was not involuntary, and that the trustworthiness of the witness' evidence was not implicated by the circumstances surrounding the interrogation.

Willem II (bijgenaamd Rufus, vanwege zijn rode gezicht) (Normandië, ca. 1060 – New Forest, 2 augustus, 1100) was koning van Engeland van 1087 tot 1100. Hij was de derde zoon van Willem de Veroveraar en Mathilde van Vlaanderen.

Levensloop
Na de dood van Willem de Veroveraar in 1087 werden diens belangrijkste bezittingen onder zijn twee oudste zoons verdeeld. Rufus was op dat moment de op-één-na-oudste omdat zijn broer Richard enige tijd eerder was omgekomen tijdens een jachtpartij in de New Forest. Zijn oudere broer Robert erfde het hertogdom Normandië terwijl Willem Rufus het minder belangrijke gebied Engeland kreeg toebedeeld. (Onder Engeland werd destijds een veel kleiner gebied verstaan dan tegenwoordig.)

De verdeling van het land van Willem I in twee delen aan beide zijden van Het Kanaal leidde tot een dilemma voor die edelen die land bezaten in beide gebieden. Aangezien Willem en Robert elkaars rivalen waren, vreesden zij (een deel van) hun bezittingen te verliezen door loyaal te zijn aan de een of aan de ander. Zij zagen als oplossing de twee gebieden te verenigen onder één leider. Onder leiding van Odo, de machtige bisschop van Bayeux, ontstond een opstand tégen Willem en ten gunste van Robert. Met steun van de Engelsen wist Willem echter de opstand te bezweren en zijn leiderschap onbetwistbaar te maken.

Willem II maakte zich niet populairder bij de lokale adel door stevige belastingen te heffen. Bovendien keerde hij zich openlijk af van de christelijke kerk door zich kerkelijke bezittingen toe te eigenen en zich anderzijds ook immoreel te gedragen. In zijn tijd ontstond er een langdurige vete over de verhouding tussen kerk en staat. Deze Investituurstrijd bracht hem in ernstig conflict met de aartsbisschop van Canterbury, Anselmus, die hij dwong in ballingschap te gaan.

Hij voerde oorlog tegen Wales en Schotland. Toen zijn broer Robert in 1096 op kruistocht ging, verpachtte deze het graafschap Normandië aan Willem die vervolgens de verloren gegane gebieden Maine en Vexin heroverde.

Willem was een flamboyant figuur. Hij is nooit getrouwd geweest en had ook geen onwettige kinderen. Men neemt nu algemeen aan dat hij homoseksueel was. Het dagelijks leven aan zijn hof wordt in de kronieken beschreven als losbandig en vol geparfumeerde mannen.

In 1100 werd hij tijdens een jachtpartij in de New Forest dodelijk getroffen door een pijl. In de Engelse geschiedenis is 'jachtongeval' vaak een eufemisme voor 'politieke afrekening', vandaar dat er sinds Rufus' dood veel is gespeculeerd over kwade opzet. Zijn jongere broer Hendrik, die hem opvolgde als koning Hendrik I, wordt in zulke verhalen meestal beschouwd als het brein achter het plan. De timing van Willems dood kwam Hendrik inderdaad goed uit. Robert Curthose, de rechtmatige erfgenaam van de troon, kon na jarenlange afwezigheid immers ieder moment terugkeren.

Op het ter herinnering aan Good King Rufus opgerichte gedenkteken Rufus Stone staat Sir Walter Tyrell vermeld als degene die het fatale schot loste.

Willem II is begraven in de Kathedraal van Winchester.

Details define the man; a signet ring, an earring, a pocketknife, or a sword each speaks to a different audience and at once can give clues to membership with a particular social group. Prior to the nineteenth century, a sword worn at the side was the mark of a gentleman, much like a blazer or jacket is today. Even if a jacket is not normal wear for the individual, donning it creates instant acceptance in certain social gatherings. Just as with a jacket today, at the court of Versailles, any man dressed cleanly and with the requisite sheathed sword worn at the side, whether owned, borrowed, or rented could enter the chateau.
Which leads to the point of this blog…Beau Nash, the master of ceremonies at Bath in the beginning of the eighteenth-century forbade the wearing of a sword for men at social gatherings at the spa. The point of social gatherings was social exchange and while any man could rent or own a sword, he felt only the nobility and gentry knew how to move in a room with one. The new-comer, unused to the movement of the side sword was instantly recognized as an interloper, not as a member. There are of course a thousand ways that members of a group spot an interloper, but by forbidding the sword Nash in effect established that an invitation was the criterion, not the accoutrement. By leveling the field a bit civility stood a better chance of developing.
In time, particularly in civilian life, the sword would be required only at court functions, where it remained as a mark of chivalry. However, at the beginning of the eighteenth-century the requirements of etiquette were in flux, but not the idea of civility. Conceivably, the rented sword at Versailles allowed any man, by blending into the crowd of hundreds or even thousands of similarly dressed men, to visit and see the court with some degree of comfort. Conversely by banishing the sword Nash provided a degree of comfort in smaller quarters and instigated a trend that would in time become the established form of social dress. Although differing in approach, both options provided greater attendance, which is the object of most public gatherings.
Now where did I leave that mug of tea...?
This eye catching, gay ensemble was worn by 12 year old Louise Carnahan (1866-1937; later Mrs. Deming of New York) to the wedding of her uncle Oliver Hanna in Fort Wayne, Indiana. It was a winter wedding held on December 5, 1878. Having a well-documented provenance conjures up an image of this young woman: Can you imagine being a Victorian teenager, skipping, prancing & preening (under many a watchful eye no doubt) in a red & white silk dress with stylish grown up boots? She was most likely quite excited about the event. The color combination would have looked chipper, right down to the snow white boots. As noted by the Metropolitan Museum, even the addition of the dickey smacks of high style.
I decided to follow a (brief!) research tangent related to Louise's ensemble for her uncle's wedding. Located her obituary and learned that her father, William Carnahan, was one of the largest shoe and boot distributors in Indiana at this time.
Already interested in her lovely white 11 button leather boots, with their 1.5 inch heel, her father's business made them that much more intriguing...Do not know if I will pursue this further, but wanted to share with you, kind readers, just the same.
Photographs of the dress & boots are courtesy the Metropolitan Museum of Art.


In the basement of a building in Jounieh, north of Beirut, some end-of-life electronic devices are piled on the ground, while others are neatly packaged and placed on shelves. The basement is the nonprofit Ecoserv's headquarters, where electronic waste treatment, a long and complex process that includes dismantling, packaging and sending waste to recycling plants, is taken very seriously. Two specialized technicians, equipped with masks and gloves, work carefully to sort the multiple components of objects such as computers and radios — an essential step towards recycling e-waste.
Gaby Kassab, founder and president of this association created in March 2018, has spent his entire career in major electronics companies, and several years abroad. "I have experienced first-hand the challenge of managing electronic waste," he says. And what a challenge!
According to a 2017 United Nations University report, the world generated 44.7 million tons of electrical and electronic waste in 2016, or 6.1 kg per person per year —equal to the weight of nearly 4,500 Eiffel towers. This volume is expected to increase to 52.2 million tons by 2021 (6.8 kg per capita). Only 20 percent of this waste gets collected and recycled, according to the report.
"When I returned to Lebanon, I wanted to help find a solution to this kind of waste, which is still poorly understood since we rarely know what it really contains," explains Kassab.
As with all other types of waste, Lebanon's management of used electronic devices is sketchy at best: they end up in nature, in landfills, or in the hands of unskilled people. To recover metal and plastic, these people burn used appliances or dismantle them higgledy-piggledy, risking generating toxic pollution, particularly by heavy metals and treated plastics that are particularly dangerous when they contaminate soil, water or air.
However, extending the collection network has a cost, especially in a country where nobody wants to pay for this service. While recycling plants in Lebanon and abroad pay for the raw material sent by Ecoserv, these revenues do not cover the NGO's transport costs. It is thanks to a silent financial partner that the NGO can employ six workers and has continued to operate since its creation.

Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani are engaged!
The couple made their engagement Instagram official on Tuesday with a sweet post from Stefani, 51, sharing a photo of her ring alongside her new fiancé, 44.
PEOPLE reported that the two got engaged over the weekend of Oct. 17 in Oklahoma.
"@blakeshelton yes please! 💍🙏🏻 gx," Stefani captioned the photo on Instagram.
Shelton shared the same post with a sweet caption.
"Hey @gwenstefani thanks for saving my 2020... And the rest of my life." he wrote. "I love you. I heard a YES!"
Hey @gwenstefani thanks for saving my 2020... And the rest of my life.. I love you. I heard a YES!
A post shared by Blake Shelton (@blakeshelton) on Oct 27, 2020 at 10:18am PDT
Gwen had on a red-and-white print shirt with jeans and a trucker cap as Blake was equally as casual in a brown button-down shirt, jeans and a cap. They appeared to be in a stone castle with a stained glass window.
This comes after the two revealed they have been spending all of their time together in lockdown.
They had been living with her three children at his ranch in Oklahoma and this month finally settled into their new $13million home in Los Angeles.
She was happy to report that it's 'nonstop creativity' living with her country star beau and kids from her ex-husband Gavin Rossdale.
'We just moved. It's exciting,' Stefani said earlier this month. 'Yesterday we did Halloween decorating and cookies. It's nonstop creativity over here.'
She has Kingston, 14, Zuma, 12, and Apollo, six, from her marriage to the Bush frontman, which ended in 2016 after 14 years.
This is the third marriage for Shelton, 42, who split from ex-wife Miranda Lambert in 2015 and was previously wed to Kaynette William from 2003 to 2006.
The happy couple first fell in love on the set of The Voice in 2015, bonding over their own recent heartbreak and respective divorces. They've been together ever since.
"When you're where she and I were, and you just feel so betrayed and on bottom, this bond that we formed when we found out what each other were going through, it's still there," Shelton previously told PEOPLE.
The big announcement comes just weeks after the No Doubt alum told Extra that she thought it was "pretty cute" when people referred to Shelton as her husband.
"Do you know how many people say my 'husband' about him?" she said, referring to Shelton, 44. "I guess we're just together."
"People got used to it or something like that," she added. "But it's pretty cute."
In August, she corrected Dua Lipa on Jimmy Kimmel Live after the British singer referred to Shelton as her husband.
"Um, well ... he's not my husband, but that sounded cool when you said it," Stefani said.

Budtenders represent the front line of any cannabis dispensary, and as such they are responsible for fostering a valuable customer service experience that will have clients returning in the future. However, the role of budtender goes much deeper than simply providing customer service. If you want to develop a profitable business with deeply embedded customer loyalty, you can do no better than to hire an exceptional team of budtenders to provide your patrons with useful information and a memorable customer service experience that will keep them coming back for repeat sales.
Perhaps the most important role the budtender plays in any dispensary is providing the customer with useful knowledge that will help them make an informed purchase. For many people, legal cannabis is still a very new concept, and there are a good deal of customers who have never tried cannabis products during prohibition. For these customers, it will be essential that an experienced budtender walk them through everything they need to know and help them choose a strain that will be best suited to their needs. In addition to dosing and strain advice, budtenders can help explain how various paraphernalia works, as pipes and bongs will likely be foreign to them.
For less seasoned smokers, information on dosing can be the difference between a positive and negative experience. This is primarily a concern with edibles due to the long lasting nature of their effects, but can benefit other methods of delivery as well. The effects and potency of different strains can vary widely, so it can be difficult to judge how much to ingest. Though it is impossible to overdose on cannabis, using too much can have a negative impact on the experience. By offering experienced insight into the product they are selling, budtenders can ensure that the customer will have a more positive experience with cannabis, leading to lasting relationships with your company.
Budtenders can provide plenty of value for more experienced consumers as well. The fact of the matter is, there is an endless sea of different types of cannabis products on the market, and learning all of them requires more research than many cannabis consumers are willing to invest. Whether a customer uses cannabis for medicinal or recreational purposes, they will likely have developed preferences when it comes to what they like to smoke. It is important that budtenders be knowledgeable enough to direct the customer to a product that will live up to their expectations.
A client suffering from anxiety shouldn't be recommended towards an energetic sativa, for example, as this will likely give them a bad case of paranoia, resulting in a negative experience that could send their business elsewhere. Likewise, a daytime smoker probably won't be happy with a relaxing Indica that will put them to sleep. Budtenders need to keep up with the various strains that are in stock at all times and be able to direct their customers to the right product.
Of course, being knowledgeable about cannabis is a necessity, but a good budtender must also be able to convey this information in a manner that educates the customer. The best budtenders will be approachable and prepared to answer any question thrown their way. They should be able to present the information like a teacher, a quality that will put customers at ease and leave them confident they are in good hands.
Dispensaries can set themselves apart from the competition by choosing their budtenders wisely. It is important to hire budtenders who present themselves in a highly professional manner including down to their manners and clothing. When a customer buys cannabis from a store, they may have preconceived notions about the budtenders working there. By hiring knowledgeable, personable and professional budtenders, businesses can tackle negative stereotypes surrounding the newly emerging cannabis industry and improve customer satisfaction.
If you've been to a lot of cannabis dispensaries, you'll know that some of them might feel like a drug dealer just leased a building and set up shop, business as usual. With legalization comes the opportunity to legitimize cannabis consumption to a degree not possible before, and many dispensaries are helping to change the perception of the industry by catering to more refined crowds with attractive shops and a professional atmosphere. A good team of budtenders can go a long way towards establishing a dispensary as an upscale business.
Overall, A great budtender is an invaluable asset to any dispensary, and staffing your business with them is your best bet at building lasting relationships with your customers. Budtenders with expansive knowledge of cannabis strains, effects, and dosage, as well as a professional and personable demeanor are essential to the success of a dispensary, and without them a business might suffer.
Eurofins-Experchem Laboratories is a Health Canada and FDA-accredited analytical laboratory with a regulatory support division. The laboratory carries out testing for many different sectors including pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, natural health products and medical devices. Starting in 2014, cannabis testing was incorporated into the mix. One reason our results so accurate is due to rigorous staff orientation and training method. Diligent staff training and monitoring is very important for success as a Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) facility with a Drug Establishment Licence and Narcotics License. So what does that look like on the inside? Saif Al-Dujaili, our quality assurance manager, Sohil Mana, our vice president of operations, and I will provide some guidelines for developing training programs below.
Introductory Session: When any new employee starts an introductory phase, it begins with general admin, a facility tour, policy manual training, govt. legislation overview and health and safety training and orientation (WHIMS and Bill 168) specific to our lab. We record signatures on any pertinent forms for SOPs that the new employee will be using.
Standard Operating Procedures: Any new employee must read all related SOPs and is evaluated on their understanding of them through questionnaires/quizzes. SOPs are written for all equipment, instrumentation or process that is applied in the lab, to ensure consistency across operations.
Laws and Regulations: New employees must be familiar or familiarized with Good Manufacturing Practices and Good Laboratory Practices. Analysts are required to read all sections of the USP pertinent to their role, as decided by the quality manager and/or dept. head and a checklist is recorded on training.
Methods: Different methods are used to test products including Compendium or other published methods with organizations such as the Association of Analytical Communities (AOAC) and the American Chemical Society (ACS). Client Methods and house-developed methods are also used. If there is a change to any method, a change control form must be filled out and documented.
Documentation: Documentation is very important in a GMP lab. All data is recorded in a hard cover bound book and/or approved worksheets. Quality assurance data reviewers are responsible for ensuring all data is being recorded properly.
Sample Management: Employees are trained on sample management related to sample entry, how samples are distributed to analysts, turn-around time, and where finished projects are placed.
Training Forms: Everything an employee learns must be recorded and filed for records. Analysts must follow a training matrix on qualitative and quantitative testing methods. Recurrent training occurs each 3 years or less depending on the position the analyst holds. Any updates on GMPs, new instruments or equipment is ongoing and recorded. Experchem runs "ghost" samples through its laboratory to ensure compliance by employees at any given time. Employees are evaluated on their abilities to comply.
Ongoing Training: Once employees are up and running they also receive monthly training in the lab and an annual GMP training followed by a comprehensive quiz that must be passed for them to continue work.
Interested in learning more about cannabis testing in Canada and the US? Contact Tegan Adams, business development manager with Eurofins at teganadams@eurofins.com.
Editor's Note: Eurofins-Experchem has helped submit over 150 MMPR applications to Health Canada and continues to work with 10 of the 27 licensed MMPR producers in Canada. Their regulatory affairs division has started working with companies applying to produce and distribute cannabis in those states, which are new to its sale and distribution. They offer services include writing SOPs, training staff and performing mock inspection audits.

Kingdom Come at 25 - the DC mega-hit explained
By Vaneta Rogers published 29 January 21
2021 marks the 25th anniversary of one of the bestselling and best regarded DC stories of all time
(Image credit: DC)
Alex Ross and Mark Waid's DC magnum opus Kingdom Come is celebrating a milestone anniversary in 2021.
The landmark series, which Newsarama readers selected as their choice for the best DC Comics story of all time, was first published 25 years ago.
May 2021 will be the exact anniversary of the publication of its first issue, and we'll know in just a few weeks via the publisher's May solicitations if DC plans to release any new project or commemorative edition of the original series to mark the occasion.
Waid's recent return to DC after a many-year absence could add some fuel to a speculative fire about some sort of anniversary celebration.
Until then, we're taking a look back at what made the story such a commercial and critical smash (see our own newly-published review) and fan-favorite.
A dark future for the DC Universe
(Image credit: Alex Ross (DC))
Taking place in a 'possible' future of the DC Universe, Kingdom Come is one of the best-selling 'Elseworlds' stories in comic book history.
At the center of its plot is an older Superman with gray hair at his temples and a different version of the 'S' symbol on his chest — one giving off a more mature vibe than the classic ones.
The four-part series was published in 1996, a time when more brutal vigilante anti-heroes like Marvel's Punisher were becoming more popular with readers than old-fashioned icons like Superman. The series pushed back against that idea, specifically pitting Superman's brand heroism against the harsher kind dished out by '90s heroes.
Kingdom Come set the conflict between these ideas in the far-distant future of the DC Universe, allowing its creators to emphasize how violent justice might eventually get out-of-hand.
The series' plot came from the mind of superstar painter/writer Alex Ross, who enlisted the help of co-writer Mark Waid to bring it to fruition. Kingdom Come used striking, realistic gouache paintings by Ross to tell its story and introduced a slew of new heroes of the future, some inspired by current-day heroes and others the offspring of well-known icons.
Goodbye Clark Kent
Kingdom Come takes place in a world where Superman has retired after the Joker killed Lois Lane.
Fans of the video game Injustice: Gods Among Us might recognize that idea since the Joker's murder of Lois was the game's inciting incident. But 1996's Kingdom Come explored it first, although from an alternate angle.
While Injustice featured Superman avenging Lois's death by killing the Joker (which caused Superman to turn bad), Kingdom Come had a different approach. In this story, there was a different, younger hero named Magog (a pastiche of Marvel's then newly-popular sorta anti-hero Cable) who did the retaliatory killing of the Joker.
Superman arrested Magog, who was tried for the murder of the Joker. But the court found Magog innocent and the world hailed the young character as a hero. After the verdict, Superman was so disappointed in the world's acceptance of brutal justice that he quit being a superhero.
He no longer lived as Clark Kent in the world of human beings, choosing to retire to the Fortress of Solitude and live in isolation as a farmer.
And Justice for All
Without Superman as the guiding force in the superhero community, the line between hero and villain blurred. It was difficult to tell who was the villain and who was the hero, and the fighting between them began to claim the lives of innocent bystanders.
Not to spoil the entire story, but as you can imagine, Superman has to eventually return. And the good guys have to fight the not-quite-as-good guys.
And while various DC heroes take different sides in the story, Superman holds fast to his belief that brutality is never justified. Superman and his values of truth, justice, and the American way are unchanged by the blood-thirsty world around him.
By the end of the story, Superman comes out of retirement, taking on the responsibility of protecting the world again, and finding contentment in a new life without Lois. In the final pages, the aging Wonder Woman and Superman announce to the gray-haired Bruce Wayne that Wonder Woman's pregnant with their child.
Post-Kingdom Come
After the publication of Kingdom Come, this version of Superman became a familiar and beloved character among die-hard DC readers.
Kingdom Come Superman was featured again in The Kingdom, a sequel Waid wrote for DC without Ross' involvement, and the publisher released a prose novel version of Kingdom Come, adapted by Elliot S! Maggin.
A version of KC's Superman also made a subsequent appearance in the first arc of 2003's Batman/Superman title - though it was later revealed this Superman, despite looking like the Kingdom Come version, was from a different, even darker Earth in the Multiverse.
In 2008, the Kingdom Come Superman eventually came to DC's mainstream continuity, traveling from his alternate Earth (by this time nicknamed Earth-22 and part of DC's Multiverse continuity) to interact with DC heroes in Geoff Johns and Dale Eaglesham's Justice Society of America.
Interestingly, Kingdom Come Superman stuck around with the JSA for some time, becoming a full-fledged member of the team for several arcs, culminating in a spiritual prequel/sequel titled 'Thy Kingdom Come,' in which he faced off against the main DC Universe's Magog and his ally Gog.
A subsequent limited series, Justice League: Generation Lost, tied the villainous Maxwell Lord to Kingdom Come's future, with Lord allying with Magog, and even experiencing visions of the events of Kingdom Come.
2011's 'New 52' reboot, which wiped away most aspects of Superman's previous continuity - including KC Supes's jaunt to the core Earth, and Generation Lost.
Since the reboot, Kingdom Come Superman hasn't made a comic book appearance but did inspire the CW's DC-TV version of Crisis on Infinite Earths. Brandon Routh from the 2006 feature film Superman Returns reprised his role with a look clearly inspired by Kingdom Come.
More recently (and speaking of Max Lord), Wonder Woman 1984 featured Diana donning a version of the gold battle armor she wears in Kingdom Come's climactic clash.
With the classic tale's 25th anniversary fast approaching, and DC reviving the 'Elseworlds' branding as an aspect of its newly christened 'Omniverse,' it's just a matter of time before some part of Kingdom Come is revived for the celebration - whatever form that may look like.
Kingdom Come was part of a crazy 1996 for DC and Marvel, the reverberation of which are still being felt today. Check out our look back at the entire year.

Iran seeks to calm Turkey over missile threat
Previous statements about possible Iranian attack on NATO's Turkey presence "not in line with government's positions."

ISTANBUL/TEHRAN - Iran's foreign minister has told Turkey that threats by Iranian political and military figures to strike Turkish missile defenses if attacked do not represent official policy.
Ties between Turkey and Iran have been sorely tested by an uprising in Syria and Turkey's involvement in NATO's missile shield, which Tehran sees as a US ploy to protect Israel.
Iranian FM warns NATO against intervening in Syria
Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu phoned his Iranian counterpart to express unease over recent threats to target Turkey if Iran comes under attack, his ministry said in a statement.
"We have made the necessary warning to those who make irresponsible and senseless statements," Iranian Foreign Minister Ali Akbar Salehi told Turkey's state-run Anatolian agency.
"The official view of the Islamic Republic of Iran towards Turkey is based on deep brotherhood and friendship," he said.
Davutoglu, asked later by a reporter in parliament whether Salehi's comments had reduced tensions, said there had never been tension:
"We thank him for his statement. Turkish-Iranian friendship is ancient. It is eternal and nobody can influence it."
Last week, Iranian lawmaker Hossein Ibrahimi said Iran could target Turkey in a future conflict due to its hosting of the NATO defenses, which Iran fears could neuter the missiles it might use to strike Israel and US forces in the region if it was attacked.
"Targeting the missile defense shield on Turkish territory would be a certain and natural reaction in the event of any threat emanating from that country," Ibrahimi was quoted as saying in the December 8 edition of the daily Sharq.
Turkey's Foreign Ministry said Salehi had told Davutoglu this was "a personal view and was not in line with the government's position."
Internal Iranian disagreement over Turkey
However, last month the semi-official Mehr news agency quoted Amir Ali Hajizadeh, head of the Revolutionary Guards' aerospace division, as saying: "We are ready to attack NATO's missile shield in Turkey if we face a threat."
The fact that Salehi has had to weigh in to calm matters points not only to tensions with Turkey but also to policy divisions within Iran's conservative ruling elite.
The storming of the British embassy by radical youths last month was criticized by Salehi, while parliament speaker Ali Larijani, a rival of President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, appeared to support the action, which further soured relations with Europe.
Close advisers to Khamenei have been harshly critical of the secular model of Islamic democracy embodied by Turkish Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan.
Khamenei's military adviser said in October that Turkey appeared to be doing Washington's bidding by turning against Syrian President Bashar Assad, Iran's main ally in the region, and called Erdogan's push for secularism in the Arab world "unexpected and unimaginable".
On Wednesday Hassan Rohani, an influential member of the state Expediency Council, was quoted as saying in the daily Farhang-e Ashti that "Turkey is going beyond the limit (in its policy) towards Syria and in supporting the Syrian opposition".
A senior cleric said Turkey's opposition to Assad was playing into a Western plot to regain dominance in the region.
"They (the West) have begun with Syria and will then go to Lebanon and Iraq, and will then come to us which, of course, will not succeed," Grand Ayatollah Naser Makarem Shirazi told the semi-official FARS news agency.
"America, Israel and Arab countries have joined hands to begin their plot with Syria and in the midst of this, Turkish statesmen are adding fuel to the fire," he said.

India's Renewable Energy Sector Likely To Get $100B Boost In Next Few Years
By Avaneesh Pandey@avaneeshp88[email protected]
India is expecting investments worth nearly $100 billion in the renewable energy sector in the next four to five years, Piyush Goyal, minister for power, coal and renewable energy in the Narendra Modi-led government, said Thursday, according to media reports.
"The government means business and we want to attract investments to India," he reportedly said, adding that the government was also planning to boost the use of renewable energy to reduce pollution at state-owned companies such as Coal India Ltd (NSE:COALINDIA) and NTPC Limited (NSE:NTPC).
Goyal stated that his ministry was planning to organize a conference on the use of renewable energy with leaders from the South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation, or SAARC, a bloc of eight countries in the region.
"On the lines of Prime Minister Narendra Modi reaching out to India's neighbors during his swearing-in, we look at relationship with an open mind based on the strength of India's security interests and better economic relations," he reportedly said.
He also added that the government was expecting nearly $60 billion in investments in the power transmission and distribution business in the next four to five years.
Nearly 300 million people in India — one-fourth of the country's population — lack access to electricity, according to official estimates. A huge chunk of the population also suffers from widespread power shortage.
India's National Action Plan on Climate Change, drafted by a special cabinet council, has set a target of generating 15 percent of its domestic power from renewable energy sources by 2020, and Modi has reportedly called for harnessing hydropower, solar energy, biomass and wind power, to bring about an "energy revolution" in the country.
The Ministry of New and Renewable Energy had earlier announced a number of measures to enhance the production and use of renewable energy sources, including incentives and tax rebates tied to power generation.

I love snow. Actually, let me rephrase: I love the appearance of snow. There's something so peaceful and tranquil about driving under a tree-covered road and seeing all the branches covered in white or looking out your back window and seeing a completely unfettered blanket covering what was once your green backyard. I've grown up in the Midwest my entire life and have never really minded the cold (as long as it's not super windy) and I thoroughly enjoy the first snowfall. It signals to me that Christmas is drawing near, and I absolutely love all that encompasses that holiday.
With that being said, my appreciation for the appearance of snow is quickly erased by the reality of what it does to the roads and driving conditions here in the Midwest. For all of our readers who live in the South or out West and don't have to ever worry about what it's like driving down back roads before the snow plows have come through, I envy you. We do not have an All Wheel Drive vehicle yet, and I never really second guess that decision until it snows and I immediately wish that we did have one.
There was one moment back in 2015 where I absolutely wished that I had an AWD vehicle though, but instead I was stuck with my hand-me-down 2010 Honda Accord. This car had character, baby. Little did I know that it would eventually have to be discarded because our mechanic found a crack in the gas tank. My wife – then-fiancé – was thrilled to find out that we were literally driving a bomb around town, but it was fine. Anyway, I was at this time living in a townhouse with five other guys – rent was cheap – and working at a church about 20 minutes away. I needed to head into work one wintery day, but a snowstorm had just come through earlier that morning and the snow plows hadn't really gotten out.
There were a couple of different routes I could take to get to work, but the quickest and easiest was to just get onto the highway right down the street from the townhouse. I managed to spin my tires enough down the road to get to the on-ramp, and I began making my way around the slow turn but knew that there was still plenty of snow and ice on the ground. As I began to make the turn where I would need to begin accelerating to get up to speed, I lost control of my car. I couldn't turn, I had absolutely no traction, and I was simply stuck just sliding in the direction that my car was going when I hit the ice patch.
Thankfully, the snow plows had built up a sort of embankment alongside the guardrails with the snow from previous storms, and when I collided with the guardrail, I only collided with packed-in snow. Legitimately, like a bumper car, I bounced back into the middle of the lane, realized that my tires had traction, and – being the 21-year-old kid that I was – just started driving again. I was listening to see if my car made any weird sounds, but everything appeared to be normal and I just accelerated up to speed and went on my way to work.
Is this when the crack in the gas tank occurred??
Don't worry, my car was completely fine (maybe?) and it didn't even have a scratch, but it just goes to show that driving during the winter time in the Midwest is a complete adventure. This also isn't even retelling the tale of how my only other car accident was due to sliding off the road a few years after this incident. That one was a bit more serious than just a real-life version of bumper cars, though…
Anyway, we've had a wild and wacky fantasy football season so far, haven't we? It's not over yet, and there are just a couple of key matchups left that are going to determine a lot across the fantasy football landscape. If you feel like you're skidding out of control and need to get back to going in the right direction, don't worry. Take a deep breath. Let's bounce off the guardrails and get back to full speed. Pat and I have got you covered this week.

Indianapolis Colts vs Houston Texans
Date/Time: Sunday December 5, 1:00pm ET
BettingPros Consensus Spread: Colts -9
BettingPros Consensus Over/Under: 45.5 points
Implied Vegas point totals: Colts 27.25, Texans 18.25
Carson Wentz: Do you know who is 4th in the NFL in PFF's Passing Grade over the last two weeks? In a list that includes names like Aaron Rodgers and Tom Brady above him, Wentz is quietly playing very solid football. While the stat sheet from last week will show two interceptions, that doesn't fully tell the whole story of Wentz's day. One interception was a beautifully thrown ball deep downfield to Pittman that was intercepted on an incredible play from Antoine Winfield Jr. The other interception was a desperation heave to the end zone on the final play of the game that should be viewed essentially the same as a Hail Mary. Otherwise, Wentz was solid and kept the Colts in it against the reigning Super Bowl champs until the very end. With all that being said, Wentz now gets to take on the Texans defense that has started to turn things around recently, but is still one of the most favorable matchups for opposing QBs. There's always the possibility that the running game takes center stage for the Colts, but if you're in need of a streaming option for Week 13 and Wentz is available in your league, he's a borderline top-12 play.
Tyrod Taylor: Taylor has now done enough over the past two weeks to be a top-15 QB each game, but he has just a total of 265 passing yards over that time frame. His rushing floor is certainly saving his fantasy output – and that has value in Superflex formats – but it makes relying on him as a starter in 1QB leagues very difficult. With that being said, Taylor might just be right back on the streaming radar in Week 13 against the Colts. Indianapolis has now allowed the 4th-most fantasy points to opposing QBs this season with 22.2 per game. Should we trust Taylor as a guaranteed top-12 play? Absolutely not. However, if you're in a pinch and in need of a fill-in option, Taylor should be available in your league and he can be viewed as a mid-range QB2 this week.
Jonathan Taylor: How ridiculous is Taylor's fantasy production so far this season? He currently has 266.1 Half PPR fantasy points through 12 games. The next closest player to him at the RB position is Austin Ekeler with 217.2 Half PPR points. He's currently averaging 22.2 fantasy points per game and he has now scored a touchdown in 9 straight games. Frank Reich finally came to the conclusion that fantasy managers have had for the last two years now that JT deserves a massive workload and it's translating to wins for the Colts and fantasy players alike. As if all of that wasn't good enough, Taylor now gets a matchup against the Texans' defense that is allowing 120.1 rushing yards per game to opposing RBs, which is the second-highest mark in the league. You were already doing this, but continue to start Taylor as the RB1 every week moving forward.
Nyheim Hines: We have now gone eight of the last nine games with Hines finishing outside the top-45 RBs on the week. This is completely Jonathan Taylor's backfield and Hines is subsequently off the redraft radar. He can be dropped if you're still hanging onto him.
Rex Burkhead: Burkhead now has 30 carries over his last two games. This is a high enough mark to put him at No. 10 in the list for most rush attempts by an RB over that time span, but it's only resulted in 67 rushing yards and no touchdowns. At this point, Burkhead is a desperation play and nothing more. He can be viewed as a low-end RB3/high-end FLEX option.
David Johnson: Do you know the popular gif of the older woman who says, "It's been 84 years…"? That's what I think of when I think about the last time DJ was a valuable fantasy asset. In all seriousness, he has not finished within the top-24 RBs any given week since Week 1 this season and he's now gone four straight weeks with an RB36 ranking or worse. Johnson isn't really in consideration for fantasy lineups at this point.
Michael Pittman Jr: It's probably time that we recognize just how dominant Pittman has been this season. After being drafted around the WR50 mark in drafts this past off-season, Pittman is now the WR16 on the season and he's averaging 11.8 Half PPR points per game. He has 61 receptions on the season for 805 yards and 5 touchdowns through 12 games and he was essentially free in drafts. While he's had a few down games here recently, he's still an incredibly consistent WR that's receiving the majority of the targets in Indianapolis. With all that being said, he now gets to take on the Texans defense this week and this is a matchup that you're going to turn right back around and plug him into your starting lineup. The Texans are allowing 173.8 receiving yards per game to opposing WRs and we should see Pittman get back on track here. He can be viewed as a mid-range WR2.
T.Y. Hilton: Hilton was able to find the end zone this past week, but he had done next to nothing the previous few weeks to even warrant consideration. In the previous matchup between the Colts and Texans this year, Hilton went off for 80 yards, but we shouldn't view him as anything more than a desperation FLEX play in Week 13.
Brandin Cooks: Tyrod Taylor has only thrown for 265 passing yards on 50 total pass attempts over the past two weeks combined and that has certainly limited Cooks' production from a fantasy standpoint. After seeing 14 targets in Week 9, Cooks has gone on to just see 8 total the past two weeks and he has a combined 63 receiving yards to show for it. While he did score last week to save his fantasy outing, Cooks is not coming with as high of a floor as we had come to expect earlier on in the season. He's still worth playing in this matchup, of course, and we should see the Colts jump out to a large lead which will force more passing volume for the Texans. However, we have to be aware that Cooks isn't bringing as much safety as we once thought. He can be viewed as a high-end WR3 this week.
Nico Collins: This is the point of the fantasy season where we need to start looking at high-upside players for our lineups and Collins is simply not one of those options in this offense. He has a bright future ahead of him and he's an intriguing option for Dynasty leagues, but we shouldn't be looking at him in redraft leagues now.
Jack Doyle: Fantasy managers had been looking at Mo Alie-Cox as the Colts TE to roster earlier on in the year, but Doyle has recently emerged as a viable streaming option. He now has 17 targets over his last three games and he's running a route on 84.6% of his snaps during that time frame. The Texans have gotten gashed by opposing TEs this year and they're allowing 9.3 fantasy points per game to the position on average. If you're in need of a streaming option for Week 13, Doyle should be considered as a mid-range TE2.
Minnesota Vikings vs Detroit Lions
BettingPros Consensus Spread: Vikings -7
Implied Vegas point totals: Vikings 26.75, Lions 19.75
Kirk Cousins: Cousins had been on an absolute tear for fantasy over the previous three games leading into Week 12 against San Francisco. He had 8 passing touchdowns to zero interceptions over those games and had been racking up the passing yardage. Unfortunately, Cousins came back down to earth a little bit in Week 13 and it wasn't all because he lined up to take a snap underneath the guard at one point. He completed 20-of-32 passes for 238 yards and two touchdowns to one interception. Even with those uninspiring numbers, Cousins still finished as the QB13 on the week and he's still a valuable fantasy asset. He has 23 touchdowns on the season now to just three interceptions. Those three interceptions equate to just a .7 INT rate, which is the best in the NFL right now by a wide margin based on his volume of pass attempts. Looking ahead to Week 13, he now gets to take on the Detroit Lions who just allowed 317 passing yards to Andy Dalton. Fire up Cousins as a low-end QB1 this week with plenty of upside.
Jared Goff: Goff has traditionally struggled against Chicago's defense over the years, but he actually put together a solid performance in Week 12 against the Bears. Goff went 21-of-25 for only 171 passing yards, but two scores and zero interceptions. With that being said, we're still not looking at Goff as a viable fantasy asset. He has just 10 touchdowns on the entire season up to this point and is merely just a Superflex desperation play. The Vikings are a decent matchup, so you could get away with Goff as a 2nd QB in your lineup, but we shouldn't consider him in our 1QB leagues.
Alexander Mattison: Mattison is going to get the nod as the starting RB in Minnesota now that Dalvin Cook is expected to miss at least the next two weeks. In the two games already this year that Mattison has stepped in as the starting option, he's seen an average of 25.5 carries, 112.5 rushing yards, 7.5 targets, 6.5 receptions, 49.5 receiving yards, and .5 touchdowns. The workload is incredible for Mattison and he's produced with the increased opportunity. Now, Mattison gets to take on the Detroit Lions defense that is currently allowing the fourth most fantasy points to opposing RBs this season with 21.2 points per game. Fantasy managers have been holding onto Mattison as a high-end insurance policy all year just for this occasion and it's time to start him with full confidence. He can be viewed as a borderline top-5 play this week.
D'Andre Swift: At the time of writing, Swift is listed as day-to-day by Dan Campbell. He got banged up on Thanksgiving and it's unclear whether he's going to be able to return to action in Week 13. If you're the Lions though, what incentive is there to playing Swift at this point of the season? The Lions are clearly in the running for the No. 1 overall pick this next off-season and they're not going to be competing for anything meaningful down the stretch this year. Swift is a key piece of their future and there is literally zero incentive to rushing him back onto the field. We'll see how the situation unfolds as we move throughout the week, but I'd expect to be without Swift for the next week or two.
Jamaal Williams: With D'Andre Swift potentially out for this week, Williams becomes one of the must-add options off of the waiver wire. While Williams should only be considered for fantasy lineups if Swift misses action, he does have plenty of upside if he gets the starting nod. Last week, in relief of Swift who went out early, Williams went from playing 27% of the snaps the week prior to 63%. Additionally, Jermar Jefferson and Godwin Igwebuike only played 10% and 8% of the snaps respectively. Williams would walk into a massive workload if Swift were to be out this week against Minnesota and the Vikings are surrendering just over 100 rushing yards per game. He could have a fine day in a favorable matchup, which is excellent for someone that still might be on the waiver wire in your league. The offense isn't great, but that won't stop Williams from seeing north of 15 touches. He can be viewed as a mid-range RB2 if Swift were to sit. We'll continue to update throughout the week as more information becomes available.
Justin Jefferson: It's hard to find any sort of issue with Jefferson lately from a fantasy perspective. Over the last four games, he is 7th in the NFL at the WR position in targets, 8th in receptions, 1st in receiving yards, and tied for the second-most receiving touchdowns. On top of all of that, he is the WR1 over that time frame and he's helping lead fantasy rosters to victories. After doing all that, he now is rewarded with about as nice of a matchup as you can find for opposing WRs. He should draw primary coverage this week from Amni Oruwariye, who is allowing a 66% catch rate on the season and 1.13 Yards Per Route Covered. Jefferson's going to put together a solid performance here in Week 13 and he should be viewed as a locked-in top-5 play.
Adam Thielen: Fantasy managers have been critical of Thielen this season, but he's been an incredibly reliable fantasy asset. Over his previous six games, he has yet to finish with less than 7 targets and he has now finished as a top-10 WR each of the past two games. The majority of his production is still dependent upon touchdown production, but we know that Cousins is looking his way when they get down to the red zone. Thielen has now seen 8 targets inside-the-10 this season and he's reeled in all 8 of them – which leads the NFL – for 6 touchdowns. He comes with plenty of upside each week – especially in this matchup – and he is at least providing a decent floor as well. The Lions have tightened things up recently from a fantasy perspective at guarding opposing WRs, but they are not going to have answers for defending this Vikings passing game. Thielen belongs in starting lineups this week as a high-end WR2.
Amon-Ra St. Brown: The anticipation keeps building for St. Brown and what he can be for fantasy purposes, but it looks like we're going to have to wait until 2022 when we get a major QB upgrade. At this point of the season, players that have major upside are worth rostering versus safe floor plays. St. Brown can be dropped in your league if you're still hanging onto him.
Josh Reynolds: Reynolds spent time earlier this season in Tennessee, but was never able to work his way into the starting lineup. While I'm sure Tennessee wishes that they had him on their roster now, he's in Detroit and reunited with his former QB from the Rams, Jared Goff. Reynolds stepped into the starting lineup in Week 12 against the Bears and immediately made everyone aware that the chemistry was real with a 3-70-1 stat line. It's nearly impossible to confidently trust any Lions receiver, but Reynolds certainly has the big play ability that could lead to fantasy production week after week. He's probably not worth playing this week – despite the favorable matchup – but he's worth picking up and seeing how this week goes if you have the space on your bench.
Tyler Conklin: Conklin had begun to enter into the weekly redraft conversation and he did have some upside there for a few weeks, but that seems to have come crashing down around him. Conklin has yet to haul in more than three receptions in any of the past three weeks and he ran just 21 routes this past week, according to PFF. There's the possibility that Conklin sees an uptick in work with Dalvin Cook now out, but the majority of those targets should stay with Mattison out of the backfield. Conklin is nothing more than a touchdown-or-bust option at this point. The matchup is favorable against Detroit, but we shouldn't be expecting crazy production.
TJ Hockenson: At the beginning of the 2021 NFL season, fantasy managers were jumping up and down with excitement due to what Hockenson was doing on the football field. He started off the year with back-to-back top-5 fantasy finishes and appeared to be well on his way to helping people win fantasy championships. Unfortunately, since that point, Hockenson has only finished inside the top-5 again on the week just once! Additionally, he has also finished outside the top-12 TEs in six other games so far this season. With the team performing so poorly around him and the QB play being less than ideal, Hockenson has struggled to produce the types of numbers that we saw at the beginning of the season. With that being said, he's still absolutely worth playing every single week at the TE position due to his talent and his role in this offense. He only saw a 12% target share in Week 12 against the Bears, but he was able to cash in and find the end zone for the first time since week two. We shouldn't be expecting Hockenson to start finding the end zone regularly again, which means that he doesn't necessarily have top-5 upside every single week, but he's absolutely worth plugging into your lineup as a low-end TE1 in this matchup against the Vikings.

Implied Vegas point totals: Dolphins 22.25, Giants 18.25
Mike Glennon: Glennon is going to be stepping in as the starting QB for New York this week with Daniel Jones nursing a neck injury. Unfortunately, this not only means that we can't even consider the starting QB from the Giants this week for fantasy football, but we have to downgrade all of the other receiving options here in New York. Glennon should only be played as a desperation option in Superflex leagues this week.
Tua Tagovailoa: Did you know that Tua is only the 4th QB in NFL history to complete more than 80% of his passes in back-to-back games with a minimum of 30 attempts? He's been incredibly accurate so far this season and he's doing this with essentially Jaylen Waddle as his only reliable receiving option. While he hasn't been a top-5 QB or anything, he's still an option that fantasy managers can plug into lineups in a pinch and feel pretty good about. Against the Giants defense this week that was allowing 20.8 fantasy points per game on average before they faced Jalen Hurts, Tua should be a safe streaming option.
Saquon Barkley: Did you know that Saquon led the entire NFL last week at the RB position in terms of snap share? He played 87% of the snaps for the Giants, which indicates that he is fully healthy and ready to operate at 100% after his injury. With that being the case, fantasy managers have to be pressing the panic button on Barkley – if they weren't already – based on his production. Saquon had just 18 total opportunities this past week and he averaged just 3.1 Yards Per Attempt, zero Forced Missed Tackles, and just 3.25 Yards Per Reception. Barkley has finished outside the top-20 RBs in each of his past two games and the situation doesn't seem to be changing around him anytime soon. According to Football Outsiders, the New York Giants are second-to-last in Adjusted Line Yards and they've been trying to make things work this entire season with a makeshift offensive line, which obviously hasn't gone well. We went into the year hopeful that Saquon could return to high-end RB1 status and now fantasy managers are simply hoping that he can be a viable mid-range RB2. Against the Dolphins defense that's allowing just 14.7 fantasy points per game to opposing RBs, plus the downgrade at QB this week, we shouldn't be expecting top-5 production from the talented RB.
Myles Gaskin: How about this bounce-back performance from Gaskin this season?! After being one of fantasy football's most volatile RB options, he has settled in as the unquestioned starter here for Miami and is delivering reliable top-end production. He now has 39 carries over his past two games and has a combined 35 fantasy points. In fact, did you know that Gaskin has 30 Red Zone carries on the season? This is more than players like Nick Chubb, Antonio Gibson, Joe Mixon, Darrell Henderson, and Najee Harris to name a few. He's starting to convert with the opportunities and he now belongs in starting lineups moving forward as a trustworthy option. We might need to exercise caution when Malcolm Brown returns to the lineup, but for now it's all-systems-go. Against the Giants defense that's allowing 19.0 fantasy points per game to opposing RBs – the 6th highest mark in the league – Gaskin should be viewed as a mid-range RB2.
Phillip Lindsay: Lindsay saw 12 carries in his first game with the Dolphins, but the majority of his work came after the game was decided. Lindsay can remain on your league's waiver wire for the time being.
Kenny Golladay: After the Giants moved on from Offensive Coordinator Jason Garrett, there was some optimism for Golladay from a fantasy perspective. He simply was not being utilized the correct way in this offense in New York and had been the definition of underwhelming over the course of his first season in town. In his first game sans Garrett, Golladay saw a 24% target share and reeled in three catches for 50 yards, which was his fourth-highest total of the season. While this certainly is still not what fantasy managers were expecting when they drafted Golladay this off-season, it seemed to be a step in the right direction for the veteran wideout. Unfortunately, it looks like we're going to have to remain cautious with Golladay from a fantasy perspective this week though with the downgrade at QB from Jones to Glennon. We've seen what Glennon can do in the NFL and it's nothing spectacular. He might lean on Golladay heavily in this game, but that's far from a guarantee. When you take into account what the quality of those targets may be, plus the tougher matchup now against Miami's secondary, it's probably best to view Golladay as nothing more than a low-end FLEX option.
Kadarius Toney: At the time of writing, we have no update yet on what Toney's status will be for this next game against Miami. While he has the potential to soak up targets this week if he's fully healthy, that's a huge question mark right now. After not practicing at all last week, it's highly unlikely that we see Toney back in the starting lineup in Week 13. We'll have to monitor the practice reports as we move throughout the rest of the week and update his outlook as more information becomes available.
Sterling Shepard: When Shepard is healthy, he's absolutely a viable low-end WR3 every single week that soaks up targets. However, Shepard has had a major issue staying on the field his entire career. He's only played in 5 games so far in 2021 and fantasy managers have had to move on to more readily available options across the fantasy football landscape. With that being said, there is some optimism that Shepard could return to the starting lineup in Week 13 against the Dolphins. He's been battling a quad injury recently, but it sounds like he could be close to returning here. In his first game back, with Glennon as his QB, it's probably best to leave Shepard on your bench. However, he is worth picking up and stashing for the playoff push because of his target share when he is active. For Week 13, we can view Shepard as a low-end FLEX if he suits up.
Jaylen Waddle: Did you know that Jaylen Waddle's 77 receptions are the second-most for any player in NFL history through the first 12 games of his career? The only player in history with more receptions through that time period is Odell Beckham Jr. during his historic rookie season where he had 91 receptions through 12 games. Waddle is also fifth in the entire NFL in receptions this season and his 759 receiving yards are good enough for second among all rookies. After being ranked around the WR45 in pre-draft ADP, Waddle is now the WR14 on the year through 12 weeks and he's helping lead fantasy rosters to championships. He's an absolute home-run start every single week at this point and he deserves to be viewed as a mid-range/low-end WR2 in this matchup against the Giants.
Evan Engram: With the move away from Jason Garrett heading into Week 12, there was some optimism that Engram would finally be utilized properly in this offense and that we could see a bit of a resurgence from him. Unfortunately, that didn't exactly happen. While Engram saw six targets – he now has 11 over the course of his last two games – he finished with just three receptions for 37 yards and ended the week as the TE22. There are better investments you can make at the TE position in fantasy this year and Engram can be dropped to your league's waiver wire if he hasn't been already.
Mike Gesicki: From Weeks 3-8, Gesicki had just one game where he finished worse than the TE10 in Half PPR scoring formats. He was playing lights out football and was steadily rising further and further up rest-of-season rankings. Since Week 8 though, Gesicki has yet to crack the top-12 again and he even has a 0-0-0 performance sprinkled in there in a game where he saw 7 targets. He's now watching as guys like Durham Smythe finish with more receiving yards on his own team and we now have to be very concerned about Gesicki's outlook moving forward. He can be viewed as a low-end TE1/high-end TE2 this week, but we need to recognize that he's starting to bring a lower floor than we once thought.

Best insurers: 20-11
It's a solid result for these insurance companies, which have squeezed into the top half our Driver Power survey
Insurers: 20-11Currently reading
Insurers: 40-31
Insurers: 10-1
20. Swinton
Overall rating: 75.44%89.3% would renew their current policy
What a fantastic turnaround for Swinton. Last year, you ranked the company second worst for value for money, but this year it managed 25th position in that category. It's impressed you with its customer service as well – you ranked it 15th for communication and 16th for helpfulness and attitude. Not even 29th place for speed of settling claims could stop Swinton squeezing into the top 20. It will need to keep on lowering prices and speeding up its claims process if it wants to avoid a repeat of the eight-place fall it suffered last year, however.
19. Prudential
A surprising drop in form for Prudential. The company finished 11th in 2011 and 2010 and ninth in 2009, but customers have complained about a big decline in the level of service over the past year. Traditionally, the Pru has received a mid-table ranking for value for money and scored very highly in terms of communication and helpfulness. But standards have clearly fallen, and while it's to be commended for coming 12th for overall service, there need to be big improvements if Prudential is to regain a place in the top 10.
18. Sainsbury's
Sainsbury's finishes three places higher than supermarket rival Tesco in Driver Power this year. The key to its success? Top 20 scores for communication, speed of settling claims and all-important value for money. Customers are clearly impressed with most areas of Sainsbury's service – although staff must improve their helpfulness and attitude if the company is to climb higher up the rankings. But with 94.5 per cent of policyholders saying they'd renew with Sainsbury's, it has every chance of widening the gap to Tesco next year.
17. Allianz
Allianz didn't figure in our 2011 survey, but it's certainly made an impact this year. Its service and staff clearly impress you. It's been quick to settle claims, it communicates well, and you've ranked its staff's helpfulness and attitude 12th out of all the brands here. This impressive performance is let down only by a low score for value for money. Clearly, customers resent high premiums no matter how helpful staff are. But, fortunately, this is an easy fix for Allianz – if it can make its prices a little more competitive, it'll see big benefits in our rankings next year.
16. Broker Direct
It's another impressive Driver Power debut – this time from Broker Direct, which brings together more than 650 independent brokers. Once again we see a company with a high rating, thanks to some impressive customer service scores, which is ultimately held back by a poor ranking for value for money. Customers are pleased that Broker Direct settles claims quickly, and that staff are helpful and have a good attitude, yet with motoring costs soaring, this isn't enough to justify anything less than highly competitive premiums.
15. Equity Red Star
A solid performance sees Equity Red Star retain its 15th place. That proves 2011 – when the company jumped 10 places from 25th – was no blip. It doesn't sell direct to the public, as brokers handle that side of the business. But it's clear that when Equity Red Star does deal with customers, it makes a big effort. High scores for communication and staff helpfulness and attitude show customers feel well looked after. And it has even improved its value for money slightly, moving from 16th to 12th. Now it has to work to speed up its claims process.
14. Churchill
Yet again, Churchill has failed to crack the top 10; it's actually slipped back a place in 2012. It was clearly paying attention to us last year when we said it needed to offer customers more for their cash if it wanted to move up the rankings – its value rating has improved from 17th to 13th. Churchill is quick to settle claims, too. Unfortunately, this has come at the expense of worse scores for communication, helpfulness and attitude, and overall service. In order to achieve a top 10 spot next year, the nodding dog will need to improve across the board.
13. Direct Line
Car insurers don't come much bigger than Direct Line. The brand has managed to edge one place higher in our rankings, yet it refuses to listen to customers' biggest gripe. We warned it in 2011 and 2010 that it had to offer better value for money – but this is still its Achilles' heel. You ranked it 24th in this category; the same as in 2011. Its communication rating also stayed the same, but it fell five and four places for helpfulness and service respectively. Direct Line stays one place ahead of Churchill only on account of its speed at settling claims.
12. Adrian Flux
This is the first year the specialist broker has been outside of the top 10 since 2008. It hunts down cover for owners of classic, modified, imported and performance cars. Its customer service is still impressive – Adrian Flux scored high marks for communication and helpfulness and attitude – but customers have been less impressed with other areas. Its rating for value for money has plummeted from 14th to 22nd, and it could manage only 23rd for its speed in settling claims. High marks for overall service show customers are still impressed, though.
11. Zurich
It's been a remarkable rise for Zurich over the past two years. In 2010, the company was near the bottom of the chart, in 33rd position. But it flew 14 places up the table last year, and has cemented those gains with another leap of eight places. Zurich has improved its scores across the board. The addition of an online quotation tool has clearly impressed customers – marks for communication and overall service have both improved substantially. Add a dramatic increase in the value rating (up from 27th to 18th), and Zurich is knocking on the door of the top 10.

Müggelheim () is a German locality (Ortsteil) within the Berlin borough (Bezirk) of Treptow-Köpenick. Until 2001 it was part of the former borough of Köpenick.

History
The village was founded on June 1, 1747, by 20 families from Odernheim am Glan, in Rhineland-Palatinate. By 1920 it was still an autonomous municipality, the lesser-populated one (186 inhabitants) merging into the German capital with the "Greater Berlin Act".

Geography

Overview
Müggelheim, surrounded by the Berliner Stadtforst, lies in the southeastern suburbs of Berlin, at the borders with the Brandenburg municipalities of Erkner and Gosen-Neu Zittau, Oder-Spree district. It borders on the Berlin localities of Rahnsdorf, Köpenick, Grünau and Schmöckwitz.

The lakes Seddinsee and Langer See are the southern borders of the locality, which has within its limits three other lakes, the Große Krampe, a little portion of the Müggelsee (named Kleiner Müggelsee), and the little Bauersee.

Subdivision
Müggelheim has three zones (Ortslagen):
 Krampenburg
 Ludwigshöhe
 Siedlung Schönhorst

Transport
The locality has no urban rail service: the nearest S-Bahn station is Wilhelmshagen, located in Rahnsdorf. It is served by the bus routes M69 and 369, and by the ferry routes F21 (from Krampenburg to Schmöckwitz), F23 (from Müggelwerderweg to Kruggasse, in Rahnsdorf) and F24 (from Spreewiesen to Kruggasse).

I have a confession. My life isn't as perfect as it looks on social media. My hair probably isn't made, makeup is rarely done and it's likely these are the clothes I wore yesterday. Baby barf stains included free of charge. I have cockroaches in my house because I occasionally leave food out and there's probably toys scattered all over the floor. My toddler, though I love her with all my heart, drives me nuts at times in a I-really-wish-I-lived-on-a-snowy-mountaintop-by-myself kind of way.
But that's ok. Actually it's more than ok because when life is a bit messy it makes time for other experiences. When I'm not cleaning, organizing and putting away there is time to slow down and connect with my daughter. When I leave the dishes till later I trade it for time to do some sketches. When I leave the livingroom a mess we have time to go to the park. But you know what, as much as I LOVE the house being perfectly clean at the end of the day I don't want to have a perfect life. I want a full life.

Today I was the sous chef at the soup kitchen. Marie Wolf, a volunteer at the soup kitchen and food pantry for seven years, brought me in and taught me how to prepare a meal for 150 people. We prepared pulled pork, potatoes with butter and garlic, fresh fruit, chili, and chicken and rice soup. I had plenty of questions for Marie. Because of all these questions I had, I decided to do an interview with Marie so others could learn, too, what Marie does when she works with Emmaus' cook, Shirley Whaley, in the kitchen.
Breanna: How often do you volunteer at the soup kitchen and food pantry?
Marie: I volunteer at the soup kitchen Monday through Friday every week for at least five hours a day. And I'm at the food pantry every Monday and Tuesday handing out bread. On those days, I come in and do set up for the soup kitchen and then do food pantry and then come back to the soup kitchen.
Breanna: Tell me about a typical morning at the soup kitchen: what do you do?
Marie: The first thing I do is come in and make a pot of coffee for myself and the Emmaus cook, Shirley Whaley. Then we stretch so we can limber up and lift those pots! (She laughs as she stretches her arms into the air.) There's a sort of schedule of things I do that includes cleaning - like folding the laundry from last night's meal - and preparing for today's meal. I look over the menu for the day and then get out all the things we'll need to make the meal. Then I'll pull out all our leftovers and see what of it we can use today. Then, we begin to cook.
Breanna: How did you learn how to cook?
Marie: Initially, I learned how to cook from my mother as a child. There were six kids in my family plus mum and dad. My mom and grandma's influence on me was more: "you need a pinch of this, a dab of that" rather than teaching me how to follow recipes.
Breanna: How is that different than the cooking you do at Emmaus?
Marie: I've come to learn how much of each ingredient is needed for a dish - but it's different than the "pinch of this, dab of that" method I grew up with. Remember, we cook for 200-250 people each day. For example, when we make cheesy potatoes, we need to know exactly how many pans of potatoes we need to cook to feed 200 people.
Breanna: And how do you figure that out?
Marie: Well, we start with a normal recipe that says "this will feed 10 people" and multiply to make the correct amount of servings we need. Over time, Shirley has done this and written a lot of the recipes down so that's what we follow now.
Breanna: What's difficult in cooking for 200?
Marie: One thing is figuring out how much seasoning or liquid goes into a dish. We have to keep tasting, tasting, tasting - just like they do on the food shows. Here especially, you have to watch how much salt or seasoning you put in and not overdo it.
Breanna: What's your favorite dish to make?
Marie: I love making Shepherd's Pie! It's what my mom made for us as comfort food when we were kids, so I like to make that for our guests. I also really like when we are able to serve fresh fruit. Having fresh fruit - especially in the winter months - is like a special treat. The guests really enjoy that.
Breanna: I didn't even know we served Shepherd's Pie! I know we serve hamburgers and hot dogs and fish and meatballs and chicken patties… How many different kinds of meals do we serve at the soup kitchen?
Marie: Quite a few! I'd guess we serve an assortment of ten casserole-type dishes, like the Shepard's Pie. And between beef, pork, and chicken products, we probably serve a variety of six to eight different patties. As for fish, we have two varieties: the cod and the haddock. Then for starches, we serve all kinds of pastas that we cook and we make a unique sauce for, along with many different kinds of potatoes that cook and flavor. Beyond that, we serve all kinds of veggies and fruit, too, that we try to offer each night.
Breanna: That is a lot! I'm not sure how you and Shirley are able to prepare all that each day.
Marie: We have a lot of volunteers who help us. And there are things we don't make but our volunteers really like to make for the guests, like lasagna. Volunteers are able to make things that Shirley and I don't have the time or ability to make in the kitchen.
Marie: It is. From the beginning of Emmaus, we've gone from making just peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and some kind of soup we've made from a leftover bone to a 5-star restaurant with a meat, a starch, a vegetable, a soup, a salad, and homemade dessert every night. It's like going through a buffet line!
Breanna: Earlier you said each morning you pull out the leftovers to see what you can use for the day. What do you do with the leftovers?
Marie: Nothing really ever goes to waste here. We use leftovers in many ways. Sometimes, we use them the following day to offer as an alternate option for someone who can't eat whatever we have prepared. And in the wintertime, we use a lot of the leftovers to make soup for the next day. That said, we never get the same soup twice!
Breanna: Beyond cooking, what else do you do here?
Marie: On Tuesdays, when the inventory comes in from Curtze, I receive the food and put it all away on our shelves and in the freezer. I also receive donations and, in doing so, often restock and clean the shelves. And I answer the door and try to provide some sort of comfort for guests in a time of crisis.
Breanna: What keeps you coming back each day?
Marie: Well, I'm retired but I really enjoy getting up early, coming in and keeping busy. Are some days more frustrating that others? Certainly. But I'd have that even if I stayed home. I'm not a shopper, I'm not someone who sleeps in. I enjoy keeping busy.
And there's a type of fulfillment I get here - fixing food and being a shoulder to lean on and for guests to talk to. Making people feel good - it makes me feel good. It's more the days you go home with that good feeling that keep bringing me back than the days that you go home wondering why.
