Chicago mayor announces police reforms after fatal shooting
None of the eight cops who responded to the 2014 incident in which McDonald was fatally shot by police were equipped with a Taser. Garry McCarthy, a series of policy changes-and even an apology-from Emanuel, and multiple protests through downtown Chicago .

As of this writing, both teams have a chance to improve their playoff positioning with a win and a loss by another team.


Sanders campaign says it’s raised M since October
Clinton’s million in primary dollars in the fourth quarter had set a new record for the best off-year Q4 for a non-incumbent. Only a few hundred of his 1 million individual donors gave the maximum of ,700 for the primary, the campaign said.

Riding their longest winning streak since 1948, the Arizona Cardinals are still in contention for the No. 1 seed in the NFC as they prepare for a rematch with the visiting Seattle Seahawks on Sunday.


RBI sets rupee reference rate at 66.3700 against dollar
At the Interbank Foreign Exchange, the rupee was trading lower by 5 paise against the previous close of 66.15. The dollar index was up by 0.09% against the basket of six currencies in late afternoon trade.

It was a turning point for the Seahawks as well.

At the same time, Seattle doesn’t want to enter the postseason riding a two-game losing streak after suffering numerous breakdowns in last week’s home loss to St. Louis.

Possible playoff seeding is all that’s at stake when the teams meet in their regular-season finale Sunday. Seahawks are only NFC West team Cardinals coach Bruce Arians hasn’t beaten in Arizona….

“He’s been playing quarterback since he was a little kid, he gets the game it makes sense to him”, Carroll said. “We keep working to improve every week, and that’s what we’re trying to do this week”. Bettcher often sends one or more players on a blitz of the quarterback, relying on his talented defence to match up with receivers man-on-man.

As Arians said and Jefferson alluded to, it does not take much for a team to go from the top to the bottom.

“A bunch more empty backfield sets”.

They are numbers Kurt Warner never matched in his Arizona heyday.

The Seahawks are 15-6 SU in their last 21 games against their division.

The Cardinals are 13-2 SU and 9-6 ATS so far this season. Seattle is third in fewest points allowed (18.1) and third in opponent TDs (27). The Arizona Cardinals ground game is averaging 126 yards per contest, and David Johnson leads the way with 556 yards and eight touchdowns. Will Seattle’s backup rushers find any room to run Sunday, or will the Cards turn Seattle into a one-dimensional offensive unit? The other Seahawks running backs – Fred Jackson, Christine Michael and Bryce Brown – have combined for just 242 yards on 64 carries and zero touchdowns. Fitzgerald already has surpassed 1,000 yards receiving for the seventh time in his 12 National Football League seasons but first since 2011. Defensively, the Seahawks yield 210.6 yards in passing and 85.3 yards in rushing.

Arizona success was hindered by those early turnovers and a meager running game that produced just 82 yards on 25 attempts, mostly successful around the left end and behind the left tackle. Neil Lomax previously set the record of 4,614 yards in 1984. San Francisco rode a 13-13 tie into the 4th quarter, and Arizona needed a late touchdown drive to take home the win.

Predictions Ari Liljenwall I don’t think it’s out of the realm of possibility for Seattle to win this game by any means and if Russell Okung plays I like their chances even more. He faced increased pressure against Cleveland two weeks ago and was completely under siege last week against the Rams.
