The latest injury report from the Minnesota Vikings raises a couple of alarms heading into their week 14 matchup against Kirk Cousins and the Atlanta Falcons . CB Stephon Gilmore (hamstring): Did not practice CB Jay Ward (elbow): Limited OLB Pat Jones II (knee): Limited OLB Andrew Van Ginkel (thigh): Limited RG Dalton Risner (back): Limited DE Jonathan Bullard (toe): Full ILB Blake Cashman (knee): Full LS Andrew DePaola (hand): Full K Will Reichard (quad): Full TE Josh Oliver (wrist/ankle): Full The news about Gilmore isn't much of a surprise. He injured his hamstring in the second quarter against the Arizona Cardinals and didn't return to the game. With Gilmore not playing, it's likely that Dwight McGlothern could get his first in game action. We did see multiple improvements from Wednesday to Thursday. Ward started practice, while Cashman and Bullard improved to full participants. The biggest name on the list is Risner, who took over for Ed Ingram as the starting right guard against the Tennessee Titans. He missed nearly three months with a back injury that he suffered during training camp and seeing him pop up on the injury report is a big red flag. Does it mean anything right now? That's too hard to know for sure. However, it's something worth monitoring over the next few days, as a midweek appearance on the injury report is never a good sign. Friday's injury report will a big indicator on who will be able to play or not. This article first appeared on A to Z Sports and was syndicated with permission.

(Photo by Skitterphoto via Pexels) By Stephen Beech via SWNS Cleaning surfaces every two hours at airports cuts potentially deadly norovirus infections by 83%, according to a new study. Researchers found that airport restaurants had the highest risk of norovirus transmission . But frequently disinfecting surfaces, mask-wearing and antimicrobial surface coatings at the transport hubs can all help prevent the highly contagious illness - also known as the winter vomiting bug - from spreading, say scientists. Study author Professor Nan Zhang, of the Beijing University of Technology in China, said: "Norovirus causes severe vomiting and diarrhea and is responsible for about 685 million cases and 200,000 deaths each year. "The virus is primarily transmitted through surfaces and outbreaks during air travel are especially common, due to the large number of public surfaces in airports." (PLOS Computational Biology via SWNS) To investigate the risk of norovirus infection from surfaces among passengers in different zones of the airport, the research team collected real touch data from 21.3 hours of video, which captured almost 26,000 touches. They developed a model of surface transmission and simulated the risk of infection from norovirus and the effectiveness of various interventions in different airport areas. Zhang said: "The touch data showed that, without any interventions, restaurants at airports had the highest risk of norovirus transmission, with approximately 4.6 out of 51,494 travelers infected. "Disinfecting public surfaces every two hours reduced the risk of norovirus infection per visit to the airport by 83.2%. "In contrast, handwashing every two hours reduced the risk by only 2%, and mask-wearing 50% of the time reduced risk by 48.0%, because masks stop people from touching their face. CDC "Furthermore, using antimicrobial copper or copper-nickel alloy coatings for most public surfaces lowered the infection risk by 15.9% to 99.2%." He says the study, published in the journal PLOS Computational Biology , provides "crucial" insights for developing infection prevention and control strategies specifically tailored for norovirus within airport environments. Zhang noted that the data for the study was collected during the COVID-19 pandemic , so surface-touching behaviors may have been different from normal. But he said that, overall, the simulated results indicated that public surface disinfection, mask-wearing wearing and the use of antimicrobial surfaces are effective ways of controlling the spread of norovirus via surfaces. Zhang added: "Regular surface infection is much more effective than regular handwashing for blocking norovirus transmission via fomite route in airports."Man accused of shooting at car Sunday in Rock Island told police it was self-defense
Colts defense picks up the pace as offense continues searching for answers to red zone woesIvan Toney came off the bench to score twice and earn Al-Ahli a 2-1 win over Al-Ain that moves the Saudi side into the knockout rounds of the Asian Champions League Elite and leaves the defending champions in danger of missing out on the last 16. Toney replaced Feras Al-Brikan in the 65th minute at Hazza bin Zayed Stadium on Monday and hit both his goals in a four-minute spell to give Al-Ahli a fifth win in a row in the competition and guarantee their place in the next phase. Cristiano Ronaldo netted a brace in Al-Nassr's 3-1 win over their Qatari hosts Al-Gharafa, while Iran's Esteghlal drew 0-0 with Pakhtakor from Uzbekistan, and Persepolis were held to a 1-1 draw by Al-Rayyan in Doha. Teams finishing in the top eight in the 12-team leagues in west and east Asia progress to the knockout rounds in March. Al-Ahli have confirmed their place with three games remaining in the league phase. Toney broke the deadlock with 20 minutes remaining when he headed Riyad Mahrez's free kick past Khalid Eisa. Four minutes later he doubled the advantage when he combined again with the former Manchester City winger to slide in the second. Defending champions Al-Ain had picked up only one point from four games before hosting Al-Ahli, and Alejandro Romero's goal three minutes into injury time gave new coach Leonardo Jardim and his team hope of a late comeback. But Al-Ahli held on to move to the top of the western standings, three points ahead of compatriots Al-Hilal, who next face Qatar's Al-Sadd. Al-Ain remain rooted to the bottom on a solitary point with three games remaining. Ronaldo was a frustrated figure in the opening 45 minutes of Al-Nassr's clash with Al-Gharafa at Al-Bayt Stadium, but headed in the opener inside the first minute of the second half to send his side on their way to victory. Angelo Gabriel rounded goalkeeper Sergio Rico to score the second 12 minutes later, before Ronaldo hit the third in the 64th minute. Al-Nassr moved to 13 points from their opening five games, despite Joselu's late consolation for the home side. Farshad Faraji's header put Persepolis ahead in the 17th minute against Al-Rayyan, who levelled via Achraf Bencharki 12 minutes into the second half to leave both teams facing a battle to make it into the knockout rounds.One savvy mom has uncovered the thrifty secret of bulk-buying eggs, revealing it can lead to major savings. The TikTok user, This Mum Cooks ( @thismumcooks ), stumbled upon what she calls an "absolute bargain" at the supermarket, a multitude of eggs. While some shoppers hesitate to stock up on eggs, due to concerns over spoiling, this TikTok guru shared a method to keep eggs as pristine as the day they were purchased by simply using your freezer, reports Daily Express UK. Fried eggs are ‘easy to make’ in 5 minutes without a frying pan or oil Nutritionist says 4 foods work the same as energy drink - without side effects In her instructional video, she informs viewers: "If you see reduced eggs like this and you want to buy some, but you don't think you're going to get through them, you can actually freeze them." She explains that freezing eggs is quite simple, although whole eggs must be removed from their shells first. Her cost-effective tip involves beating the eggs as if preparing them scrambled, pouring them into a freezer-safe container, then stashing them in the deep chill. Not all egg elements need to be frozen together, which helps when different recipes call for specific parts of the egg.

Before transitioning yolks to the frosty conditions, take one more step to preserve their consistency. Whip the whites in their designated container then safekeep them in a freezer, where "they last about a year." The TikTok food connoisseur shared a nifty trick for storing eggs. She said: "If you want to freeze egg yolks, you want to mix in a bit of salt or sugar, depending on what you want to do with those eggs in the future, because that stops them going like a jelly consistency." She added: "Like I say, eggs will last in the freezer for up to 12 months you just want to make sure you defrost them properly before you use them."

Jason Derulo's ex Jena Frumes puts her sizzling bikini body on display during family beach day in MiamiPhiladelphia (8-2) at Los Angeles Rams (5-5) Sunday, 8:20 p.m. EST, NBC/PeacockEmboldened by the view from the top of the NFC North, the Detroit Lions are out to eliminate nightmare holiday gatherings when the Chicago Bears come to town Thursday for a lunchtime division duel. The Lions (10-1) are streaking one direction, the Bears (4-7) the other in the first matchup of the season between teams on opposite ends of the division. Riding a nine-game winning streak, their longest since a 10-game streak during their first season in Detroit in 1934, the Lions are burdened by losses in their traditional Thanksgiving Day game the past seven seasons. Three of the defeats are courtesy of Chicago. The Bears and Lions get together for the 20th time on Thanksgiving -- the Bears have 11 wins -- this week in the first of two meetings between the teams in a 25-day span. Detroit goes to Soldier Field on Dec. 22. "I think there's two things," Campbell said of the Thanksgiving losing streak. "Number one -- Get a W. And it's a division win that's why this huge. Number two is because the players are going to get a couple of days off. So, they have family, friends in, it'd be nice to feel good about it when you're with everybody because it's just not real fun. It's not real fun to be around." Detroit (10-1) owns the best record in the NFC but the Lions aren't even assured of a division title. Minnesota sits one game behind them and Green Bay is two games back. The Bears (4-7) sit in last place and would likely need to run the table to have any chance of making the playoffs. The Lions have been dominant in all phases and haven't allowed a touchdown in the past 10 consecutive quarters. Detroit's offense ranks first in points per game (32.7) and second in total yardage (394.3) The Lions defense has not given up a touchdown in the last 10 quarters. Rookie placekicker Jake Bates has made all 16 of his field goal attempts, including four from 50-plus yards over the past three games. Chicago shows up in a foul mood. The Bears are saddled with a five-game losing streak and Chicago's defense has been destroyed for nearly 2,000 total yards in the last four games. The Bears failed to reach the 20-point mark four times in five outings since they last won a game. In their latest defeat, rookie quarterback Caleb Williams and the offense perked up but they lost to Minnesota in overtime, 30-27. "We have to play complementary football for us to be able to win these games," coach Matt Eberflus said. "The games we have won, we have done that. The games we have been close we've missed the mark a little bit. Over the course of the year, it's been one side or the other, this side or that side. In this league you have to be good on all sides to win. That's what we are searching for." Williams threw for 340 yards and two touchdowns without an interception. The wide receiver trio of DJ Moore, Keenan Allen and Romeo Odunze combined for 21 receptions and two touchdowns while tight end Cole Kmet caught seven passes. "What I've been impressed with is just how he has grown," Campbell said. "He has grown every game but these last two I really feel like he's taken off and what they're doing with him has been really good for him and he just looks very composed. He doesn't get frazzled, plays pretty fast, and he's an accurate passer, big arm, and he's got some guys that can get open for him." Detroit's banged-up secondary could be susceptible against the Bears' veteran receivers in their bid to pull off an upset on Thursday. The Lions put two defensive backs on injured reserve in the past week and top cornerback Carlton Davis isn't expected to play due to knee and thumb injuries. Detroit offensive tackle Taylor Decker (knee) and top returner Kalif Raymond (foot) are also expected to miss the game, though Campbell expressed optimism that running back David Montgomery (shoulder), formerly of the Bears, would play. Bears safety Elijah Hicks was listed as a DNP for Tuesday's walkthrough. --Field Level Media

She said: "If you want to freeze egg yolks, you want to mix in a bit of salt or sugar, depending on what you want to do with those eggs in the future, because that stops them going like a jelly consistency." She added: "Like I say, eggs will last in the freezer for up to 12 months you just want to make sure you defrost them properly before you use them."

The Lions (10-1) are streaking one direction, the Bears (4-7) the other in the first matchup of the season between teams on opposite ends of the division. Riding a nine-game winning streak, their longest since a 10-game streak during their first season in Detroit in 1934, the Lions are burdened by losses in their traditional Thanksgiving Day game the past seven seasons. Three of the defeats are courtesy of Chicago. The Bears and Lions get together for the 20th time on Thanksgiving -- the Bears have 11 wins -- this week in the first of two meetings between the teams in a 25-day span. Detroit goes to Soldier Field on Dec. 22. "I think there's two things," Campbell said of the Thanksgiving losing streak. "Number one -- Get a W. And it's a division win that's why this huge. Number two is because the players are going to get a couple of days off. So, they have family, friends in, it'd be nice to feel good about it when you're with everybody because it's just not real fun. It's not real fun to be around." Detroit (10-1) owns the best record in the NFC but the Lions aren't even assured of a division title. Minnesota sits one game behind them and Green Bay is two games back. The Bears (4-7) sit in last place and would likely need to run the table to have any chance of making the playoffs. The Lions have been dominant in all phases and haven't allowed a touchdown in the past 10 consecutive quarters. Detroit's offense ranks first in points per game (32.7) and second in total yardage (394.3) The Lions defense has not given up a touchdown in the last 10 quarters. Rookie placekicker Jake Bates has made all 16 of his field goal attempts, including four from 50-plus yards over the past three games. Chicago shows up in a foul mood. The Bears are saddled with a five-game losing streak and Chicago's defense has been destroyed for nearly 2,000 total yards in the last four games. The Bears failed to reach the 20-point mark four times in five outings since they last won a game. In their latest defeat, rookie quarterback Caleb Williams and the offense perked up but they lost to Minnesota in overtime, 30-27. "We have to play complementary football for us to be able to win these games," coach Matt Eberflus said. "The games we have won, we have done that. The games we have been close we've missed the mark a little bit. Over the course of the year, it's been one side or the other, this side or that side. In this league you have to be good on all sides to win. That's what we are searching for." Williams threw for 340 yards and two touchdowns without an interception. The wide receiver trio of DJ Moore, Keenan Allen and Romeo Odunze combined for 21 receptions and two touchdowns while tight end Cole Kmet caught seven passes. "What I've been impressed with is just how he has grown," Campbell said. "He has grown every game but these last two I really feel like he's taken off and what they're doing with him has been really good for him and he just looks very composed. He doesn't get frazzled, plays pretty fast, and he's an accurate passer, big arm, and he's got some guys that can get open for him." Detroit's banged-up secondary could be susceptible against the Bears' veteran receivers in their bid to pull off an upset on Thursday. The Lions put two defensive backs on injured reserve in the past week and top cornerback Carlton Davis isn't expected to play due to knee and thumb injuries. Detroit offensive tackle Taylor Decker (knee) and top returner Kalif Raymond (foot) are also expected to miss the game, though Campbell expressed optimism that running back David Montgomery (shoulder), formerly of the Bears, would play. Bears safety Elijah Hicks was listed as a DNP for Tuesday's walkthrough. --Field Level Media
