With commitments to fund climate initiatives and actively participate in COP negotiations, China is expected to take on more responsibility for global climate leadership.

It’s been a fun ride for the fifth-ranked Indiana Hoosiers, but their first test with the big boys this year may just be their last. The Hoosiers got on the board first, immediately after forcing a three-and-out to start the game.

Indiana again went three-and-out, and the Buckeyes responded with another trip to the end zone. After its touchdown, Indiana failed to score on its next eight drives, finding the end zone again in garbage time.

NFL insider Ian Rapoport called out former Tennessee Titans head coach Mike Mularkey after Mularkey revealed more than six years after his firing that he fed Rapoport a bogus story to get back at his soon-to-be former employer. It was like, ‘All right, you’re done.’”While Mularkey may have found joy in the moment, Rapoport wasn’t laughing six years later. I was a younger reporter then, and the amount of online hate and ridicule I got because Mike Mularkey thought it would be funny to get back at his old boss — it was not fun. I don’t blame Mike Mularkey, but I want to. And we should treat truth better than that.”Mularkey took over as head coach in Tennessee halfway through the 2015 season.
