Young completed 29 of 41 passes for 329 yards and two touchdowns to McMillan, who had 14 catches for a career-high 192 yards, and the Panthers overcame an injury-filled week to beat the Detroit Lions 32-26.
“Everything just clicked tonight,” McMillan said. “There were some plays throughout the week that we may not have hit on, but (offensive coordinator) Brad Idzik called the plays and Bryce trusted it. He made good throws and we converted. I can't tell you what happened tonight. Maybe it was just the Charlotte air.”
Young, who was serenaded with “M-V-P! M-V-P!” chants by fans in the fourth quarter, said he never second-guessed throwing McMillan's way because he has so much confidence in him.
“I know what kind of player he is. He's special,” Young said. “I always trust him. I have confidence...

- Georgia investigators have no suspects in custody Monday morning after a shooting in the small city of Vienna left two people dead and 35 wounded.
Officials identified the two dead as 21-year-old Jaquevion Jackson and 23-year-old Macaleb Jackson. It's unclear if the two were related.
Here's what we know so far about the shooting and the investigation:
The city is a small, rural community around 130 miles south of Atlanta. The crime scene spans roughly four blocks, officials said Sunday.
More than 1,000 people had gathered at the site, and more than 50 shots were fired in at least two locations about a block apart, Peavy said. #News #Crime #shooting

- A new report based on federal labor and workforce data shows an increase in unemployment rates across the country and, with that, slowed hiring. Here in Colorado, preliminary data also shows a slow but steady rise in unemployment rates.
"It underperformed, but it came on the heels of a job report that beat expectations," said Markus Schneider, an associate professor of economics at the University of Denver. "So it's a lot of up and down, it's a kind of noisy picture."
The national unemployment mark is now sitting at about 4.2% – more than 7 million people – and the state's most recent preliminary report shows an unemployment rate of 4% flat.
"By historical standards, a 4% unemployment rate is still a low unemployment rate," Schneider said. "We're not jumping to unemployment rates that are, in and of themselves, concerning. But digging into the details, I understand why people are not feeling optimistic about the economy. #News #Money #Ec...

- Description
- The Group of Seven wealthy democracies said Friday that they plan to release 100 million barrels of oil and fuel products in the coming weeks, starting with “substantial” amounts of diesel after the fuel recently hit record high prices in the United States.
President Donald Trump said the diesel release would happen “immediately,” echoing a G7 promise to start “immediately” with a “frontloaded substantial release” of diesel within the next 20 days and the rest over four months.
Trump and his Republican Party face pressure to address surging prices ahead of the Nov. 3 midterm elections, and Trump announced the action Friday on social media. The president's approval ratings on the economy hit a new low, according to an AP-NORC poll, as the Iran war and his trade battles have increased U.S. prices for oil and other goods. #Economy #News #Politics

- Description
- The US Air Force made a major move following an investigation into a potential terror plot on a base in London. Now, President Trump is weighing new attacks on Iran.
Voters are deeply dissatisfied with President Donald Trump and his Republican Party heading into the Nov. 3 midterm elections, according to an Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research poll, and Democrats have built a clear advantage on pressing issues such as the cost of living and healthcare over just a few months.
But the survey also points to a bigger problem for both parties: Few registered voters think either party is able to solve important problems or help Americans like them.
That undercurrent of cynicism will be a challenge for Democrats and the Republicans, no matter which party controls Congress. Frustration with Republicans is growing, but voters do not appear to think Democrats have a long-term solution to the country’s problems, either.

“My heart aches when I think of what she experienced,” Kotlikoff said. “It raises heartbreaking and troubling issues about sexual assault, dehumanization and aspects of party culture, alcohol and drug use.” #News #Cornell

A greater share of Latino voters hold negative views of the Republican Party than at any time since 2016, and Democrats have leads on issues like dealing with the economy, immigration, the cost of living, corruption and healthcare. Two years ago, Latino voters gave Trump a 4-point edge over then-Vice President Kamala Harris on handling the economy. Today, they give Democrats a 21-point advantage on the same question.

- President Donald Trump on Sunday tapped Jay Clayton, his director of national intelligence, to lead a new government task force on artificial intelligence.
Trump is calling it the “Super Intelligence Force,” because he has tried to rebrand AI as “super intelligence.” The announcement comes after Trump hosted top executives of AI companies at the White House last week and said they had signed a voluntary accord that would effectively self-police the development of the technology.
The task force will coordinate the federal effort "to ensure that America continues to lead the World in Super Intelligence, which many say is bigger than the Industrial Revolution, and the Internet, and will protect the interests, and improve the lives, of all Americans,” Trump in a post on social media Sunday. #News #Politics #Tech

More than 150,000 acres of forests protected under this “Roadless Rule” are in North Carolina’s High Country, prompting local groups of various types to call for people to partake in the ongoing public comment process dedicated to weighing this proposed change.
Boone Mayor Dalton George said the potential rescinding of the Roadless Rule is sparking much conversation in the community, as the move is poised to impact parts of the Pisgah and Nantahala National Forests.
