WorkWorkWorkWorkAmerican Dream mall in N.J. briefly evacuated on Black Friday over bomb threat  The evacuation came on the biggest shopping day of the year, when many Americans are expected to flood malls across the country in search of the best holiday deals. The shopping holiday poses unique risks to retailers because of the large crowds that it draws. In years past, fights have broken out between customers, and others were injured in stampedes. WorkBiden hails arrest in Mexico of notorious Sinaloa cartel enforcer 'El Nini'  US authorities are now seeking the extradition of Pérez Salas, who had a $3m bounty on his head and was arrested at a walled property in the Sinaloa state capital of Culiacán. Mike Vigil, former head of international operations for the US Drug Enforcement Administration, told the Associated Press that El Nini "was a complete psychopath", adding: "Taking him out of commission is a good thing for Mexico."

WorkAndrew Cuomo accused of sexual assault as 'look-back' window closes  The Adult Survivors Act, which temporarily expanded the statute of limitations, grabbed headlines immediately when the writer E Jean Carroll restated a rape and defamation claim against Donald Trump mere minutes after the look-back window opened a year ago. The accusations against Foxx, Combs, Adams and Cuomo also came as the law was expiring. Other accusations were filed against photographer Terry Richardson, music producer Jimmy Iovine, comedian Bill Cosby and the Guns N' Roses singer Axl Rose.

WorkWorkWorkWorkWorkWorkWorkWorkWorkWorkWorkTebow time: Gators look to legend for motivation  \"Every year growing up, we would watch the game, and if we won, it was -- ask my parents -- arguably the best day of the year,\" Tebow said. \"And if we lost, it was mortifying. I would lose perspective and it felt like the world was ending. I begged them to let me not go to church on Sunday because I couldn\'t handle the FSU fans. It was always bigger than a game.\" WorkWorkDolphins overwhelm Jets and QB Tim Boyle, who throws 99-yard INT  Troubling trend 2.0: Hall, one of the league\'s most dynamic players through October, has disappeared. In the past six games, he has rushed for 182 yards -- the byproduct of an ineffective offensive line. Without a running game, the quarterback (whoever it is) has no chance. The Jets started their eighth different offensive line combination -- a recipe for disaster. -- Rich Cimini WorkNFL Week 12 injuries -- New on Kupp, Higgins, more  Lattimore left the Saint\'s game against the Minnesota Vikings on a cart late in the game and hasn\'t practiced since the team returned from the bye week. Saints coach Dennis Allen said the injury is going to take some time and hasn\'t ruled out a stint on IR if it\'s needed. -- Katherine Terrell WorkWorkWork'We like being underdogs': Undefeated Stanford excels in new role  After taking then-No. 3 UCLA to the brink last week, it wouldn\'t be a shocker to see the Tigers crack the AP poll on Monday, and a win over the Hoosiers would only solidify their case. Madison St. Rose and Kaitlyn Chen are coming off a pair of 20-point performances against the Sooners. WorkCollege football Week 13 betting: It's all about Michigan-Ohio State and the Heisman  I\'m also looking at SMU, an 18-point home favorite against Navy this weekend, hoping to cap off a perfect 8-0 conference season. With Tulane and UTSA also both unbeaten in AAC play, this game is still a must-win for the Mustangs to keep their hopes for a New Year\'s Six bowl game alive. They might not match the 46.1 PPG they\'ve scored against non-Power 5 teams this season, but they should cruise to an easy victory. WorkWorkMLS Cup playoffs conference semis: Who will make final four?  The reigning champions tore through Round 1 seemingly without breaking a sweat. While finishing lower in the table than last year\'s Supporters\' Shield-winning side, LAFC have shown early signs of a squad still capable of lifting the Cup again this year. A brace apiece from Morris and Rusnák was enough to overcome Dallas in three matches, but the Sounders might be outmatched by Steve Cherundolo\'s side. -- Swanick WorkTransfer Talk: Man United are seriously considering Juventus loan for Sancho  - Concrete talks regarding a contract extension at Bayern Munich for Thomas Müller will come in the next weeks or months, reports Florian Plettenberg. The club is reportedly open to extending the 34-year-old\'s deal past its current expiration in the summer.

Pistorius was also found guilty of a second charge of recklessly firing a gun in a restaurant. WorkDr. A's weekly risers and fallers: Alex Caruso, Pascal Siakam make the list  Pascal Siakam, PF/C, Raptors (98.1%): Siakam is obviously not someone fantasy managers will want to kick to the curb, but his ninth-round fantasy value over the last couple of weeks is a far cry from where he was drafted. It\'s more of the same with Siakam, as he\'s not producing steals, blocks or 3-pointers and has had some bad nights shooting the ball from both the field and free throw line. He\'s simply another big name who can likely be easily moved for a more valuable fantasy player.
