The Vikings sign Carson Wentz to be the backup QB, With the regular season less than two weeks away, the Minnesota Vikings and Philadelphia Eagles have engaged in a late trade. The Vikings announced Sunday that they are sending quarterback Sam Howell to the Eagles in exchange for draft picks.In return, Minnesota receives a fifth-rounder in 2026 and a seventh-rounder in 2027. Philadelphia also received a sixth-round pick in 2026 as part of the trade.Twins lose 5 of 6Tommy Fleetwood wins the FedEx CupIt took 164 PGA Tour starts, 44 prior top 10 placements and six excruciating runner-up finishes, but Tommy Fleetwood on Sunday at the 2025 Tour Championship finally made his way into the winner's circle. The 34-year-old Englishman converted his third 54-hole lead of the season into his first career PGA Tour victory, claiming the season-long FedEx Cup crown and the massive $10 million payout that goes along with it.Fleetwood finished his tremendous week-long effort Sunday with a 68 to post a winning score of 262 (-18); in doing so, he handled the Sunday nerves at East Lake Golf Club better than anyone else in the field. He took his name off the top of the "best player never to win" list and put himself on the short list of players to win the FedEx Cup after a tremendous 72-hole performance at the Tour Championship.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The phrase “old country store” has also been removed.The company said the colors in the logo were inspired by the chain's scrambled eggs and biscuits.The change is part of a “strategic transformation” to revitalize the brand that started back in May 2024.

Twin Cities scream club builds community through relieving stressHollie Carr started the group after seeing a Chicago scream club on TikTok. Many people found her group the same way.“Are you here to scream?” Hollie Carr asked people who strolled by her Sunday night as the sun began to set near the Cedar Nichols Trailhead in Burnsville.Carr founded Scream Club Twin Cities MN in early August. The group travels to different lakes, rivers and streams every week to scream across the water. And they're always looking for new participants.“Screaming is inclusive of everyone,” Carr said. “It doesn't matter what your issues are or what your stress is. Our goal is to scream in community.”Minnesota spent nearly $46,000 on welfare per person in poverty in 2023Every year, the U.S. Census Bureau publishes the Annual Survey of State and Local Government Finances. This is the country's only source of state and local spending data, allowing a detailed state-by-state comparison. The survey also divides spending data into categories, making it possible to analyze which public services states prioritize.Overall, public welfare is the largest expenditure for most states. However, the level at which states prioritize assistance programs over other public services, such as roads and police, differs.Minnesota, for instance, has a massive welfare system, dedicating a larger share of its revenue to assistance programs than most states. Additionally, Minnesota ranks among the top states for poverty-adjusted welfare spending, making it one of the most generous in the nation. In 2022, Minnesota spent approximately $42,000 (in 2023 $) per person on poverty, ranking second-highest in the entire country.This trend continued in 2023, as newly released data from the U.S. Census Bureau reveals.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

MLB attempted to play a game at Bristol Speedway and it was a total disaster. A record-breaking crowd filled Bristol Motor Speedway to watch the Atlanta Braves take on the Cincinnati Reds, but not everyone left with a winning experience.Among the attendees was Lester Tate and his family, who traveled to the Tennessee venue for the unique ballgame. What they're saying:Tate said while the concept of hosting a baseball game at the iconic NASCAR track was exciting, the execution left much to be desired. He described long waits for basic concessions—claiming he stood in line for two hours for either a bunless hot dog and nachos without cheese—and criticized stadium signage and overall logistics."Frankly, if they'd spent half the time hyping to try and get 85,000 people there planning on what you're going to do when the 85,000 get there, it would have been a total success," Tate said.Certain states will no longer allow you to buy junk food with SNAP.In a win for Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) advocates, six more states have gotten waivers allowing them to ban soda, candy and other high-sugar junk foods from being purchased through the federally funded, but state-operated Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, known as SNAP. The waivers, which amend the statutory definition of eligible food for purchase under SNAP, were granted to West Virginia, Florida, Colorado, Louisiana, Oklahoma and Texas. The new restrictions on what can and cannot be purchased will go into effect in 2026.The six new waivers bring the number of states that have sought to restrict SNAP purchases of junk food to 12. The other states who received waivers from the Trump administration earlier this year were Nebraska, Iowa, Indiana, Arkansas, Idaho and Utah.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Alpha-gal syndrome is a type of food allergy. It makes people allergic to red meat and other products made from mammals.In the United States, the condition usually begins with the bite of the Lone Star tick. The bite transfers a sugar molecule called alpha-gal into the body. In some people, this triggers a reaction from the body's defenses, also called the immune system. It causes mild to severe allergic reactions to red meat, such as beef, pork or lamb. It also can cause reactions to other foods that come from mammals, such as dairy products or gelatins.The Lone Star tick is found mainly in the southeastern United States. Most cases of alpha-gal syndrome are reported in the south, east and central United States. But the condition appears to be spreading farther north and west. Deer are carrying the Lone Star tick to new parts of the country. Other types of ticks carry alpha-gal molecules in different parts of the world. Alpha-gal syndrome has been diagnosed in parts of Europe, Australia, Asia, South Africa, and South and Central America.Some people may have alpha-gal syndrome and not know it. There are people who often have serious allergic reactions, also called anaphylactic reactions, for no clear reason. Tests also show that they don't have other food allergies. Researchers think that some of these people may be affected by alpha-gal syndrome.There's no treatment other than avoiding red meat and other products made from mammals. If you have a serious allergic reaction, you may need medicine called epinephrine and treatment at the emergency room.Avoid tick bites to prevent alpha-gal syndrome. Wear long pants and long-sleeved shirts when you're in wooded, grassy areas. Use bug spray too. Check your whole body for ticks after you spend time outside.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

If you are angry at the Sydney Sweeny ad for American Eagle jeans, that's a YOU problem...........Sydney Sweeney Under Fire After Controversial American Eagle Ad CampaignThe label's latest advertising campaign has been setting social networks ablaze, and not just because it features the Euphoria actor in a tight tank top. Called “Sydney Sweeney Has Great Jeans,” it's based around a play on words that may seem harmless—but has been criticized by onlookers who see a sinister message lurking beneath the pun.One ad from the autumn campaign shows Sweeney leaning over the engine of her Ford Mustang. She slams the hood and wipes her hands on the back of her jeans—not without a close-up from the cameraman—before settling behind the wheel and disappearing. A second begins with Sweeney speaking about her “jeans” as the camera slowly pans down to her cleavage, before she reprimands it with a smiling “Hey, eyes up here!” The series' most criticized ad shows the actor reclining on a couch as she squirms while fastening her pants and murmuring, “Genes are passed down from parents to offspring, often determining traits like hair color, personality, and even eye color. My genes are blue.” Then a male narrator concludes, “Sydney Sweeney has great jeans.”See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

American Eagle sparks backlash for touting Sydney Sweeney's 'great jeans'American Eagle's “great jeans” advertising campaign with actor Sydney Sweeney is at the center of the latest political firestorm online, drawing accusations of racial undertones in its messaging.Sweeney, who rose to fame for her starring roles in HBO's “Euphoria” and “The White Lotus,” is the star of the clothing retailer's latest denim-focused fall campaign, with the tagline, “Sydney Sweeney has great jeans.”It's a play on words for Sweeney's “great genes.” Indeed, in one clip, which accrued more than 1.1 million views on American Eagle's Instagram page, Sweeney stands before a poster of herself titled, “Sydney Sweeney has great genes,” before the word “genes” is crossed out and replaced with “jeans.”Round-the-world walker prepares for home stretchA man hoping to become the first person to complete an unbroken round-the-world walk is preparing for the last leg of his journey.Karl Bushby set off from Chile in 1998.
