Jayden Daniels: 2023 Heisman Trophy Winner

Senior quarterback Jayden Daniels from Louisiana State University was announced as the 89th winner of the Heisman Memorial Trophy during ESPN’s 2023 Heisman Trophy Ceremony Presented by Nissan on Saturday (Dec. 9), originating from Jazz at Lincoln Center in New York, N.Y.

Fellow Heisman finalists quarterback Michael Penix Jr. of Washington, quarterback Bo Nix of Oregon and wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. of Ohio State finished second, third and fourth, respectively, in the Heisman balloting.

Daniels is LSU’s third Heisman winner as he joins Joe Burrow (2019) and Billy Cannon (1959) among Tigers to hoist the bronze statue. He is also the 20th quarterback in the last 23 years to win the award and the 39th quarterback overall.

The 6-foot-4 Daniels, born in San Bernardino Calif., completed 236-of-327 passes for 3,812 yards and 40 touchdowns with just four interceptions while also rushing for 1,134 yards and another 10 scores.

He leads the nation in total offense (4,946), TDs responsible for (50), passer rating (208.0, currently above the NCAA record), yards per pass attempt (11.7) and rushing yards by a quarterback (1,134) while his 40 TD passes are tied for first.

Daniels earlier this week was named the 2023 AP Player of the Year in addition to winning the Johnny Unitas Golden Arm, Davey O’Brien National Quarterback and Walter Camp Player of the Year Awards. He is also a five-time SEC Offensive Player of the Week winner this season.

He became the first player in FBS history to rush for 200 yards and pass for 350 yards in a game when he did it against Florida on Nov. 11, collecting 372 yards through the air and 234 on the ground. The 606 total yards broke the SEC record. Daniels joined Heisman winner Johnny Manziel as the only other player in SEC history to pass for 3,500 yards and rush for 1,000 yards in a season and is the eighth player to do it overall.

Daniels’ passer rating of 208.01 is a Heisman best and his 4,946 total yards is tied for the third-most by a Heisman winner, matching 2018 winner Kyler Murray’s total. His 50 total touchdowns are the seventh most in Heisman history and his 3,812 passing yards is 12th most.

Daniels is the fifth player in the last seven years who won the award after transferring and he is the first Heisman winner born in California since Matt Leinart won it in 2004. Despite the drought, California has still produced 14 Heisman winners, more than any other state.

He is just the third senior to win the award since 2006, the other two including Burrow (2019) and DeVonta Smith (2020). Daniels, the first Heisman winner coached by Brian Kelly, is the 34th winner from the SEC.

Penix Jr. is Washington’s highest finisher ever in Heisman balloting, topping defensive tackle Steve Emtman’s fourth-place finish in 1991. Nix is Oregon’s highest finisher since Marcus Mariota won the award in 2014. Harrison Jr. is Ohio State’s highest finisher since C.J. Stroud was third in 2022.

The 2023 Heisman Trophy ballots went out to 928 electors, which includes 870 members of the media, our 57 living Heisman winners and one overall fan vote presented by Nissan, premier partner of the Heisman Trophy. All ballots were submitted electronically to the independent accountants at Deloitte.

Rounding out the top 10 finishers in the 2023 Heisman voting were:

Jordan Travis, Florida State

Jalen Milroe, Alabama

Ollie Gordon II, Oklahoma State

Cody Schrader, Missouri

Missouri - Texas - Physicians - Medical Practices - Pay $525K

Chesterfield, and St. Louis Missouri and Texas Physicians and Medical Practices Agree to Pay Over $525,000 to Settle Kickback Allegations Involving Laboratory Testing. (STL.News) Imran Chishti, M.D. and his medical practice, C Care LLC, both of Chesterfield, Missouri; Shamim Justin Badiyan, M.D., of Frisco, Texas, and Psych Care Consultants LLC, of St. Louis, Missouri, have agreed to pay a total of $525,610 to resolve False Claims Act allegations that they received illegal kickbacks in violation of the Anti-Kickback Statute in return for referring patients for laboratory testing. The parties have agreed to cooperate with the Department of Justice’s investigations of and litigation against other participants in the alleged schemes. “The prohibition against paying or receiving kickbacks is an important safeguard for ensuring the objectivity of medical decisions that affect federal health care beneficiaries,” said Principal Deputy Assistant Attorney General Brian M. Boynton, head of the Justice Department’s Civil Division. “We will continue to pursue those who knowingly violate the law and undermine the integrity of our federal health care system.” The Anti-Kickback Statute prohibits offering, paying, soliciting, or receiving remuneration to induce referrals of items or services covered by Medicare, Medicaid, and other federally funded healthcare programs. The Anti-Kickback Statute is intended to ensure that medical providers’ judgments are not compromised by improper financial incentives and are instead based on the best interests of their patients. The settlement announced today resolves allegations that Dr. Chishti and his medical practice, Badiyan, and Psych Care Consultants received kickbacks in violation of the Anti-Kickback Statute in return for making referrals to laboratories in New Jersey, Texas, and Florida. - Chishti and C Care.  Chishti and his medical practice, C Care, have agreed to pay $125,504 to resolve two allegations.  First, from July 2016 to August 2018, C Care allegedly received thousands of dollars in payments from a purported management service organization (MSO) named Infinity Nine Health Group MSO LLC (Infinity) in return for Dr. Chishti ordering laboratory tests from American Institute of Toxicology Inc. doing business as HealthTrackRx, a clinical laboratory in Denton, Texas, and InHealth Diagnostic LLC doing business as RealLab (InHealth), a clinical laboratory in Dallas. Second, from August 2018 to July 2020, C Care allegedly received thousands of dollars in payments from a purported MSO named Alari Group LLC (Alari) in return for Dr. Chishti ordering laboratory tests from Genesis Reference Laboratories LLC (Genesis), a clinical laboratory in Orlando, Florida, and RDx Bioscience Inc. (RDx), a clinical laboratory in Kenilworth, New Jersey. - Badiyan. Badiyan has agreed to pay $182,676 to resolve allegations that, from November 2018 to June 2022, he received thousands of dollars in payments from a purported MSO named Avior Group LLC (Avior) in return for ordering laboratory tests from RDx and Genesis. RDx and Genesis allegedly paid commissions to an independent contractor recruiter, Corum Group LLC (Corum), which used Avior to pay kickbacks to Dr. Badiyan and other healthcare providers in return for their referrals. - Psych Care Consultants. Psych Care Consultants has agreed to pay $217,430 to resolve allegations that, from January 2019 to March 2020, it received thousands of dollars in payments from Alari in return for ordering laboratory tests from Genesis and InHealth. Genesis and InHealth allegedly paid commissions to Corum, which used Alari to pay kickbacks to Psych Care Consultants and other health care providers in return for their referrals. “Kickbacks can undermine the integrity of our health care system,” said U.S. Attorney Philip R. Sellinger for the District of New Jersey.  “Patients should be able to count on their doctors ordering tests and recommending treatment based on what is best for them, and not because they are receiving payments on the side.  We will continue to pursue anyone responsible for unlawful actions that can put at risk the medical decision-making process.” “Those who participate in the federal health care system are required to obey the laws meant to preserve the integrity of program funds and the provision of appropriate, quality services to patients,” said Special Agent in Charge Naomi Gruchacz of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Office of Inspector General (HHS-OIG).  “Our agency collaborates frequently with our law enforcement partners to investigate parties alleged to violate the Anti-Kickback Statute.” The settlements were the result of a coordinated effort between the Civil Division’s Commercial Litigation Branch, Fraud Section, and the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of New Jersey, with assistance from HHS-OIG.  The settlements announced today were handled by Senior Trial Counsel Christopher Terranova in the Civil Division’s Commercial Litigation Branch (Fraud Section) and Assistant U.S. Attorney Kruti Dharia for the District of New Jersey.  The United States has recovered over $33 million relating to conduct involving MSO kickbacks to healthcare providers, including False Claims Act settlements with three dozen physicians. The pursuit of these matters illustrates the government’s emphasis on combating healthcare fraud. One of the most powerful tools in this effort is the False Claims Act.  Tips and complaints from all sources about potential fraud, waste, abuse, and mismanagement can be reported to the Department of Health and Human Services at 1-800-HHS-TIPS (800-447-8477). The claims resolved by the settlements are allegations only, and there has been no determination of liability. SOURCE: U.S. Department of Justice Read the full article

The Burning Castle

Here is my latest illustration. It’s loosely based on Corum’s return to castle Erorn the book “the Knight of the Swords” by Michael Moorcock. The image was purchased by Chris Northern for an upcoming book cover. The Burning Castle. Cover 1027 (sold) As usual the work of Frank Frazetta and Todd Lockwood, as well as Alan Lee, Brian Froud, Rodney Mathews, and Peter A. Jones filled my mind and I…

MOORCOCK, Michael

British novelist (born 1939)

In the 1960s Moorcock edited the science fiction magazine New Worlds, pioneering and encouraging New Wave writing, which attempted to give science fiction a new social and political relevance to the time. Moorcock’s own New Wave work is at its peak in his Jerry Cornelius books (including The English Assassin and The Final Programme), which are less straightforward novels than firework displays of ideas,magical mystery tours round one man’s overheated brain. In later books Moorcock returned to a more sober style, still crammed with ideas but much easier to read. Many of his novels offer alternative versions of the present (Warlord of the Air, for example, imagines a twentieth century where the First World War never happened and the old nineteenth-century empires, British, Austrian, Russian and German, are still jockeying for power). Others (Gloriana, The Jewel in the Skull) are satires about societies which are dark and decadent perversions of our own. All of Moorcock’s work, however, is interlinked at some level, a reflection of ‘the multiverse’ he has imagined, the interconnected, parallel universes through which his characters travel. Jerry Cornelius, Elric of Melnibone (doomed albino prince of a dying race in some of Moorcock’s best sword-and-sorcery titles), Corum, Hawkmoon, Von Bek and others are all avatars of the Eternal Champion, Moorcock’s Hero With a Thousand Faces.

DANCERS AT THE END OF TIME  (1981) A good starting-point to Moorcock’s multifarious, dazzling work is the series Dancers at the End of Time (An Alien Heat, The Hollow Lands, The End of All Songs and a cluster of less closely related novels). The time is the very last days of the universe. The few hundred surviving members of the human race control vast energies: anything desired can be obtained by twisting a 'power ring'. Jerek Cornelian (the last human being ever to be born, an avatar of Jerry Cornelius from the earlier novels) falls in love with a strait-laced Victorian time-traveller, Mrs Amelia Underwood. He follows her back in time, and is promptly stranded in the slums of Victorian London: a typical Moorcock idea, allowing him to collapse history, fantasy, social commitment and literary parody - Cornelian gives D H.G. Wells the idea for The Time Machine unpredictable experience.

Many of Moorcock’s novels are grouped in series: The Chronicles of the Black Sword, The High History of the Runestaff, The Chronicles of Castle Brass, The Books of Corum, The History of the Eternal Champion. Byzantium Endures, The Laughter of Carthage and Jerusalem Commands are three epic novels which follow the scheming Colonel Pyat through the story, real and imagined, of the twentieth century. Mother London and King of the City are non-science fiction novels, dazzling recreations of London lives past and present.

@clove-pinks tagged me to “list ten books I’m planning to read in 2020 “ Thanks

1. Rights of Man, common sense and other political writings by Thomas Paine. @formicarum-rex, who is a major paineite convinced me to read this, and I read things about Paine and liked the cut of his jib, but haven’t read what he wrote himself, so i bought this oxford world classics collection, here we go.

2. Catch-22 by Joseph Heller. Another book Ollie convinced me to read, and it is a classic and Heller is part of the post-war american postmodern literary wave i’m interested in because of Thomas Pynchon ( the greatest living author)

3. Resurrection by Leo Tolstoy. Because I loved War and Peace, and this is where Tolstoy goes into the christian anarchist and pacifist philosophy he developed late in life. The critical reaction is kinda mixed, but Brian Aldiss has said “The greatest of all novels is Leo Tolstoy's final novel, Resurrection.“, so there is that.

4. Jerusalem by Selma Lagerlöf. Major Swedish novelist, first woman to win the nobel prize. It is about a religious movement who convinces it’s followers,  swedish peasants from the province of Dalarna to emigrate to the “holy land” and Jerusalem and live there. I think it doesn’t go so well. It’s a classic and regarded as her best, but i haven’t read it. I doubt this book is as fun as Gösta Berlings saga, but it is probably pretty good.

5. Corum: The Prince in the Scarlet Robe by Michael Moorcock. I liked moorcock’s writing in the few elric books i read. He writes fast-paced action/adventure well, but also have some intellectual and emotional depth, so i want to explore more of him.

6. Long John Silver by Björn Larsson. Pirates! This is a novel about the pirate from Stevenson’s Treasure Island. It’s written from his perspective, and is a revisionist, historically informed take on piracy. A more understanding view than Stecvenson’s condemnation of them as villains. That got me interested, and I know Larsson is a good writer from his other books..

7. The Accursed by Joyce Carol Oates. Another of her gothic novels, I liked the first one “Bellefleur”. So I really want to read this.

8. The “age of” books by Eric Hobsbawm. History books, that take a overview of the historical developement of world history i guess, although it’s fairly euro-centric. It is four books and covers the years 1789-1991.  I read the first one “age of revolutions”, which covered the period up to 1848. And it was really good,  it didn’t focus so much on people and specific events, more on the general historical development in Europe.

The First book is about “the two revolutions”, the French revolution and the industrial one, what lead to them and their effects on the world, but mainly Europe. It’s maybe not the thing if you like novel-like narrative history about people and specific events, but it is absolutely fascinating. So I really want to read the three follow-ups.

9. Mythago Wood by Robert Holdstock. Very acclaimed fantasy novel about an eldritch forest. Now i like those kinds of forests. and this novel is regarded as a classic, won the world fantasy award and everything. My copy is literally part of a series called “fantasy masterworks” so I hope this might at least be good.

10. The God of Small Things by Arundhati Roy. Because it is a classic i haven’t read. I’m only familiar with Roy from the many political articles and essays by her, but judging by the prose in those she is a great author.

as for tags, maybe @mutalieju might be interested and haven’t been tagged yet? Feel free to ignore, and anyone else who sees this can do this if they want to, of course.

Mark Zuckerberg courts the powerful in D.C.

Mark Zuckerberg courts the powerful in D.C.

The social media giant’s founder spent three days engaged in quiet diplomacy with members of Congress and President Donald Trump.

Mark Zuckerberg’s Washington tour this week represents a new approach to politics for him: low-key, closed-door but highly solicitous of the most important players in town.

Facebook’s CEO had previously addressed concerns about privacy and social media through acts of public contrition and limited engagement with Congress or the White House. Zuckerberg’s last appearance in the nation’s capital was a contentious congressional hearing in April 2018.

Story Continued Below

This time, the social media giant’s founder — clad in a suit and tie, saying nothing to reporters — spent three days engaged in quiet diplomacy with members of Congress and President Donald Trump. That included a final day of private meetings on Friday, including with lawmakers pursuing antitrust investigations of the tech industry and others drafting legislation to restrict how websites use consumer data.

The personal touch seemed to resonate with some members, though others remained critical of the industry. While it wasn’t quite clear what Zuckerberg accomplished on the host of questions Facebook faces on issues like user privacy, anti-competitive behavior, Russian election interference and the company’s plans for a cryptocurrency, the mood music was certainly different.

“I think what he gave us today was some honest discussion,” said Georgia Rep. Doug Collins, the top Republican on the House Judiciary Committee. House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy and Oregon Rep. Greg Walden, the top Republican on the House Energy and Commerce Committee, also walked away Friday with praise for the mogul’s approach.

Trump said nothing about his meeting Thursday with Zuckerberg, beyond calling it “nice” in a tweet that showed the two shaking hands in the Oval Office.

Some lawmakers were not impressed by the CEO’s efforts. “I don’t think he’s got a lot of credibility,” said Sen. Ron Wyden (D-Ore.), who is active on tech issues but did not meet with Zuckerberg. “He’s lied repeatedly to the American people, for example, about privacy policies.”

Another notable omission on Zuckerberg’s congressional schedule was Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), who had some harsh words for Facebook earlier this year after it refused to remove a doctored video that falsely portrayed her slurring her words.

The stakes have risen for Facebook since Zuckerberg testified last year — among other things, it now faces an array of federal and state antitrust investigations into its business practices. The company also has much to lose if Congress manages to pass federal privacy legislation or erodes the 1996 law that shields internet platforms from litigation over user-posted content. At the same time, Facebook is seeking to overcome resistance in Washington over its plans to launch a digital currency, Libra.

Even some of the company’s biggest congressional critics said Zuckerberg’s one-on-one discussions were more effective than his public testimony, which featured a series of tense exchanges between the CEO and lawmakers.

“I think we share one view, which is that those hearings informed no one and are a zoo,” said Sen. Brian Schatz (D-Hawaii). “If you want to have a real exchange of views, you have to have a bunch of sit-down conversations and not creating a context where every member of Congress is trying to have their viral moment.”

A former D.C.-based Facebook official said the company has come to appreciate in recent years how much Washington politicians enjoy receiving deference from a famous Silicon Valley billionaire. Facebook understands the political goodwill it can gain by having Zuckerberg ask to visit with lawmakers and then turn up for those meetings not in a T-shirt but crisp suit and tie, the former official said. “It certainly plays to their egos,” said the person, who requested anonymity to speak candidly about a past employer. “What a personal appearance like that signals can help Facebook out enormously.“

The former official said that while this week’s Hill visits provided a chance to build relationships with the lawmakers who oversee the tech industry, Zuckerberg’s Oval Office sit-down was more about pure optics.

“Trump is in a different category,” the former official said. “It’s, ‘We’re going to visit him, we’re going to call him Mr. President, we’ll kiss the ring, we’ll give him the photo op and it will stroke his ego.’” Added the source: “Jack Dorsey did it. Sundar Pichai did it. Tim Cook does it,” a reference to CEOs of Twitter, Google and Apple, respectively.

Despite the president’s past scathing criticisms of Facebook, including his accusations that the social network is “anti-Trump,” both he and the company walked away from the encounter with positive messages. A Facebook spokesperson called it a “a good, constructive meeting.”

Even so, Zuckerberg’s D.C. foray was not without incident.

Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.), who as a state attorney general launched an investigation into Facebook’s data practices, tore into the company during a widely covered news conference following his meeting with Zuckerberg on Thursday. Hawley said he challenged the Facebook chief to sell off two of the company’s biggest acquisitions — WhatsApp and Instagram — adding that Zuckerberg was “not receptive to those suggestions.”

Zuckerberg also took heat during a Wednesday dinner from senators on the company’s approach to privacy, competition and election security, according to Democratic Sen. Mark Warner of Virginia, who organized the gathering. Even so, Warner said the engagement was a step in the right direction.

“I think it was important for him to hear not just from some of the members who have been active on these issues, but other members who are not,” he said.

Warner has shown just how important it is for tech giants to engage with Congress. As vice chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee, he was one of the panel leaders who left an empty chair for Google at a witness table last September, to protest the company not sending a CEO-level representative to a hearing on Russian election interference.

According to Schatz, Zuckerberg’s D.C. visit was preceded by previous under-the-radar efforts to charm members of Congress. The Hawaii senator said he met with the Facebook CEO in Honolulu over the August congressional recess, and shared concerns about Zuckerberg’s plan to launch the Libra cryptocurrency.

Schatz said that during the August meeting, he told Zuckerberg that tech companies are trying to be “too clever” in their calls for data privacy legislation that stops short of more sweeping reform.“They just need to get totally behind it as opposed to acting as though they have leverage in this situation,” he said.

Senate Judiciary Chairman Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), said he also met with Zuckerberg in recent weeks, saying the two discussed data privacy, online content and election interference on social media. And in July, the Facebook CEO dialed up Senate Commerce Chairman Roger Wicker (R-Miss.), who has led efforts to craft a bipartisan privacy bill, to discuss that issue, Wicker said.

“The hearings are a show. Behind closed doors, you have a real discussion, which I think often starts with Facebook having to educate members how their platform actually works,” said Alex Conant, former press secretary to Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) and now a partner at the public affairs consulting firm Firehouse Strategies.

Zuckerberg’s outreach this week also included Sen. Maria Cantwell (D-Wash.), who is negotiating a privacy bill with Wicker; House Intelligence Chairman Adam Schiff (D-Calif.), who has called on the company to step up its fight against election disinformation; and House Judiciary Chairman Jerry Nadler (D-N.Y.) and antitrust subcommittee chair David Cicilline (D-R.I.), who are leading the House’s bipartisan antitrust probe into the tech sector.

Local Beat recap 9/3/10 (Hopscotch Edition)

September 3 was the Friday before Hopscotch Music Festival, and I was joined by Grayson Currin, music editor of the Independent Weekly who was also Hopscotch Curator. Hopscotch is the biggest music event to ever happen in Raleigh, so I dedicated the entire three hours of the show to chatting with Grayson about everything associated with the festival.  Caitlin Cary (Small Ponds, Tres Chicas), Reid Johnson (Schooner), and Brian Corum (Lonnie Walker) also came on the show, and Reid and Brian played some brand new tunes (which you can download here). What ended up happening was three hours of a fascinating, entertaining conversation with insight into Hopscotch. Listen below: Hour 1: Hopscotch on the Local Beat 9/3/10 (Hour 1) Hour 2: Hopscotch on the Local Beat 9/3/10 (Hour 2) Hour 3: Hopscotch on the Local Beat 9/3/10 (Hour 3)
