However, the Raiders only want to retain Jacobs at the right price and will not be placing a franchise tag on him, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. Jacobs’ tag would be worth a tick over $14 million in 2024, which is evidently too costly for Las Vegas’ blood. Given Jacobs’ production this past season, that does not come as much of a surprise.

Ohne die fehlenden Browser-Add-Ons v.a. für Ad-Blocker und WebKit statt Gecko als Engine ist das nutzlos für mich. Das liegt aber mehr an Apple als an Mozilla.

The Judicial Conduct and Disability Committee denies Judge Newman's petition for review of the Federal Circuit Judicial Council's order finding "that Judge Newman committed misconduct by refusing to cooperate, without good cause, with the Special Committee’s investigation by failing to undergo a medical examination."

Judge Newman’s Petition for Review argues that the Federal Circuit Judicial Council abused its discretion by failing to transfer the complaint to another circuit; that Judge Newman had good cause to refuse to submit to the medical evaluation ordered by the Special Committee; and that the sanction imposed is contrary to the Judicial Conduct and Disability Act (“the Act”) and the JC&D Rules. For the reasons explained below, we deny the petition for review.

The news abut needing new gas plants in the UK a couple of days ago, mostly missed the actual documents, linked below; they're pretty thorough - but more importantly the need for the replacement gas plants is the least interesting thing in them; failing to kill off marginal pricing is a bigger pain; but it does seem like they tried and found everything they tried failed; the best idea they have is a split pricing system that should make the marginal pricing better:
