LAKE FOREST, Ill. — In the end, Chase Claypool's time with the Bears ended up lasting less than a year.The team is trading the wide receiver to the Dolphins along with a 2025 seventh round pick in exchange for a 2025 sixth round pick.After being inactive the last two games, the Bears have traded wide receiver Chase Claypool along with a 2025 seventh round pick to the Dolphins in exchange for a 2025 sixth round pick..@WGNNews pic.twitter.com/j7W9aaw4pr— Larry Hawley (@HawleySports) October 6, 2023This move comes after Claypool was inactive the last two games and was told to stay away from the team this past week as the Bears prepared for the Commanders. The Friday before the Broncos game, the receiver had been critical of his usage in the Bears' offense.It's a tremendous disappointment for the team and general manager Ryan Poles, who gave up the Bears' second round selection in the 2023 NFL Draft - which ended up being the 32nd overall - to the Steelers for Claypool in November...IRS places lien on Giuliani property over unpaid taxes: filing

AUSTIN (Nexstar) -- When lawmakers convened for Texas' 88th legislative session in January, teachers and public schools across the state were eagerly anticipating a bigger slice of the state budget -- to combat inflation, a mass exodus of teachers, and challenges still lingering from the pandemic, they conveyed at the time. Ten months later, they are still waiting to see any change to their bottom line.Gov. Abbott's call for the third special session, which begins at 1 p.m. Monday, puts education front and center. He long promised to call legislators back to business to pass his top educational priority of subsidizing private school tuition with state money. It's a plan he argues will allow more families to access private schools that better fit their children's needs. Public schools, however, are absent from his legislative wish list."It's our mistake," President of the Texas American Federation of Teachers Zeph Capo said Thursday.

Published Tue, 24 Dec 2024 12:55:36 GMT
Nearly four years ago, officials with Bremer Bank and the Bremer Financial Corporation filed suit against the Otto Bremer Trust, the philanthropy that oversees them, arguing that its three trustees attempted to enrich themselves by ousting the membership of their corporate board and replacing them with hostile investors.They alleged that representatives of 19 East Coast hedge funds and other deep-pocketed interests were poised to take over the St. Paul-based bank, one of the Midwest’s largest farm lenders, and position it for sale.That case — and the sale of BFC voting shares to new shareholders — was put on hold when the Minnesota Attorney General’s office, which regulates charities, filed legal action of its own aimed at replacing the three trustees outright. The effort was only partially successful last year when Judge Robert Awsumb removed a single trustee — S. Brian Lipschultz — whose position was filled this year by attorney Francis M.

By David Tanis, The New York TimesMost of the time, I take a very casual approach to having guests for dinner. I don’t mind doing a little cooking while people hang out in the kitchen; in fact, I enjoy it.But sometimes, it’s more relaxing to have the entire menu ready, especially if some of it can be cooked a day in advance. This is one of those menus. It takes a little work to put together, but comes with great reward: There’s barely any last-minute fussing.In Morocco — and similarly throughout the Middle East — the most delicious salads are made with seasoned, cooked vegetables, not leafy greens. For a first course, I made a smoky eggplant salad with cilantro, infused with cumin, hot pepper and a generous amount of olive oil. It’s a winning combination.Seriously blackening the eggplants — preferably very firm ones, with fewer seeds — under the broiler achieves the perfect smoky flavor. Once they collapse from the intense heat, you scrape away the charred skin, then shr...Latest news
