FARGO, N.D. (AP) — Destin Talbert returned a blocked field goal for a touchdown, Jayden Price added a 67-yard punt runback for a score and defending national champion North Dakota State rolled past Drake 56-14 on Saturday.
Prior to their season opener, the Bison raised their latest national championship banner inside the Fargodome. They won their ninth FCS championship 11 years this past season.
Drake scored first on a short pass from Ian Corwin to Dorian Boyland but NDSU then ran off 42 straight points by halftime starting with Cam Miller's 31-yard touchdown pass to Zach Mathis followed by the blocked field goal and punt return.
Miller threw just nine times with six completions including two scores. Eight different NDSU players scored, including Will Mostaert's return of a fumble, the Bison's first touchdown on defense in four years.
Corwin threw for two touchdowns plus an interception.
This was the teams' first meeting since 1962. Drake had won both previous games, played in Des Moines, Iowa.
It was NDSU's 24th straight win in a home opener.

25 WEATHER — Most of the rain from earlier today has been winding down, and much of the rain for the remainder of the evening should be in the Brazos Valley. Still, another shower here and there tonight cannot be ruled out. Tomorrow will play out in similar fashion, with scattered showers and storms dotting the area. Some downpours with frequent lightning may occur. Labor Day should feature the same kind of weather. Some places won't get any rain while others could pick up some brief heavy amounts.
A handful of storms will remain possible through the week as highs remain in the low-90s. Rain chances will be lower by the end of the workweek, and as of right now, it looks like we stand a chance to return to dry conditions by next weekend. I would not be surprised if future forecasts raise the chances for rain during that time. I'm leaning toward the data that keeps us drier but some data still keeps us wet through the next seven to nine days.

The family of a Tennessee woman who police said was abducted and forced into a vehicle while she was jogging near the University of Memphis campus has offered a $50,000 reward for information in the case.
Eliza Fletcher, 34, was last seen about 4:20 a.m. Friday, Memphis police have said. She was jogging when a man approached her and forced her into a dark-colored GMC Terrain after a brief struggle, police said.
The vehicle was located Saturday and a male who was occupying it was detained, but Fletcher has not been located, Memphis Police tweeted. No further information was released.
Fletcher was reported missing when she did not return home from her regular morning run, and her cellphone and water bottle were discovered in front of a house owned by the university, authorities said.
Fletcher’s family offered the reward Friday night through Crimestoppers for information leading to the arrest of anyone responsible for her disappearance.
“We look forward to Eliza’s safe return and hope that this award will help police capture those who committed this crime,” Fletcher’s family said in a statement released Friday night through Crimestoppers.
Fletcher is the granddaughter of the late Joseph “Joe” Orgill III, a Memphis hardware businessman and philanthropist, according to news outlets.
U.S. & World
The mother of two is described at being 5-foot-6 and 137 pounds (1.68 meters and 62 kilograms) with brown hair and green eyes. She was last seen wearing a pink jogging top and purple running shorts.
Memphis police said the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation and the FBI were called in to assist with the investigation.
Officers canvassed the area where Fletcher was abducted and combed through her home, searching for clues and collecting evidence, news outlets reported.
Authorities left her home with a laptop and garden shears and towed away a cream Jeep Wagoneer, WMC-TV reported. | https://www.nbcdfw.com/news/national-international/police-search-for-woman-abducted-while-jogging-near-university-of-memphis/3064014/ | 2022-09-04T00:39:14Z | https://www.nbcdfw.com/news/national-international/police-search-for-woman-abducted-while-jogging-near-university-of-memphis/3064014/ | false |

Reaction to Serena Williams’ loss Friday night to Ajla Tomljanovic at the U.S. Open in what was expected to be the final match of her career:
“(at)serenawilliams you’re literally the greatest on and off the court. Thank you for inspiring all of us to pursue our dreams. I love you little sis!!!!!!” — Tiger Woods, via Twitter.
“Congrats on an amazing career, (at)SerenaWilliams. How lucky were we to be able to watch a young girl from Compton grow up to become one of the greatest athletes of all time. I’m proud of you, my friend—and I can’t wait to see the lives you continue to transform with your talents.” — Michelle Obama, via Twitter.
“All heart. So much love.” — Alexis Ohanian, Williams’ husband, via Twitter.
“I think she embodies that no dream is too big and it doesn’t matter where you come from, or the circumstances. You can do anything if you believe in yourself and you love what you do and have an incredible support system and family around you.” — Tomljanovic, in her interview on the court after her victory.
“We just witnessed the last US Open for the greatest of all time, Serena Williams!! Serena has meant so much to sports, the game of tennis, the world, every little girl, and even more to every little Black girl across the globe.” — Basketball Hall of Famer Magic Johnson, via Twitter.

For five years, Thomas Moulton worked to develop a reusable N95 mask designed for those working in the trades.
The Envo mask, made by Sleepnet Corp. in Hampton, launched in August 2019. Then, eight months later the COVID-19 pandemic hit, and sales skyrocketed. The company reached its annual goal for sales in a single day, Moulton said. As a private company, he declined to reveal the sale figures.
“We just happened to hit it right,” Moulton said.
The mask, which uses the company’s patented “Air gel” technology, is now marketed for the medical, industrial and public safety uses. The mask took about a $1 million investment to create, he said.
“I boastfully say this is the best N95 mask in the world,” Moulton said. He bought every mask in the mark during his research to see what they offered.
“There was really no innovation, no new technology being introduced in this space pre-pandemic,” he said.
As a result of the growth, Sleepnet landed on Inc. Magazine’s list of the nation’s top 5,000 most successful private companies for the first time. The company landed at No. 2,384 on the list after seeing 244% growth over three years — the top company in the state.
Sleepnet, founded in 1990, manufactures gel sleep apnea masks for continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) machines. The products are made in Hampton and ship to 53 countries. The company sells 60% of its products overseas.
The products do not leave marks on a user’s face.
In all, 10 Granite State companies landed on the list representing 151% median growth and $528.5 total revenue and 798 jobs added, according to the magazine. Seven companies have been on the list before.
Merchants Fleet in Hooksett ranked No. 2,483 or second in New Hampshire. The company also made it on the list in 2020.
In 2021, the Merchants’ portfolio of vehicles grew by nearly $500 million. The company also put 20,000 vehicles on the road in the last mile delivery space alone, with 4 million packages per day delivered in a vehicle managed by Merchants during the holiday season, according to a news release.
Merchants Automotive Group, which includes a nationwide fleet-management business and the Hooksett-based auto dealer, is being acquired by Bain Capital and the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority, Merchants announced in July.
Stephen Singer, whose father, Irving, founded the company in 1962 as a small used car lot at the corner of Valley and Willow streets in Manchester, reflected on the sale and the company’s legacy during an interview in advance of the recent 39th Annual Gail Singer Memorial Blood Drive.
“I think he would be shocked. His biggest concern was that there would be family unity and that the six Singer siblings would work together,” Singer said. “I think he would be very proud of the fact that not only did we work together and were successful, but more importantly we never forgot our roots. And for the last 60 years I think we have been a pretty integral part of the Manchester community service teams.”
Targeting baby boomers
As for Sleepnet Corp., Moulton said he and several business partners were looking to start a health care company to address the aging baby boomer populations that included wound care, drug infusion pump therapy and respiratory care.
The “highest and best use” of their capital was to focus on the “Air gel” technology. The gel filters can be replaced in the Envo mask, which has become popular with health care workers, Moulton said. The masks are certified by the National Institute for Occupational Safety & Health.
The company experienced supply chain challenges as demand was heavy, Moulton said. The number of workers went from about 25 to 75.
“We were working days, nights and weekends,” he said. “We had a crisis on our hands.”
The product was sold to Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center and Lahey Health and medical centers all over the country.
Moulton said he recently ran into a nurse who works at Catholic Medical Center in Manchester.
“She said, ‘I love that mask. That’s all I wear,’” he said. “‘It’s all I wear. I feel safe. It works well.’”
The individual mask kits cost $79, but the company offers bundles. The kits include a case, headgear and five additional filters.
He said nurses have posted about the mask on social media, saying it doesn’t fog glasses and doesn’t leave marks on the face even after wearing it for hour on end. One nurse had worn it for 10 hours straight.
Now that the pandemic has leveled off, the company is working to continue to market the product in a variety of settings. New products are also on the horizon. The company has about 60 employees right now.
The product requires additional accreditation to be sold overseas.
“That will be an instant shot in the arm for sales once we get that,” Moulton said.
The full list of New Hampshire businesses includes:
• 2,384: Sleepnet Corp., Hampton
• 2,483: Merchants Fleet, Hooksett
• 2,603: Alumni Ventures, Manchester

Bruce McNorton's hometown became famous for Richard Petty and Dale Earnhardt driving in circles at 200 miles per hour.
It took McNorton 15 hours of highway time during the “55 saves lives” era to reach the only institution that offered him a chance to play football beyond high school.
More than four decades later – 10 of those years spent in the National Football League, primarily with the Detroit Lions – McNorton returned to those fertile grounds at Georgetown College to accept his purple jacket emblematic of induction to the Kentucky Pro Football Hall of Fame.
“I thank them for the opportunity that they gave me to continue to play the game that I love,” McNorton said. “They did that when no other college would even offer me a scholarship. Nobody else offered this scrawny, little kid from Daytona Beach, Florida, a chance to live his dream, but Georgetown did.”
The presentation took place at halftime of Georgetown's 52-7 rout of Bluefield (Virginia) College in its home opener Saturday at Tiger Stadium.
McNorton received his jacket from fellow hall of famer Frank Minnifield, formerly of the Henry Clay Blue Devils, Louisville Cardinals and Cleveland Browns.
Bill Cronin, newly retired after 25 years as head coach of the Tigers and a member of the NAIA Hall of Fame, helped McNorton put on the symbolic blazer.
“They gave me a chance to leave Florida, come to Kentucky and see snow for the first time,” McNorton said. “I thank my coaches, my teammates, my friends and all that had a part in this journey.”
McNorton still holds GC program records for most kick returns and kick return yardage.
Listed at 5-foot-11, 175 pounds in his NFL biography and appearing just as fit and trim at age 63, McNorton was drafted by the Lions in the fourth round with the 94th overall pick in 1982.
He spent nine years with the silver-and-blue before concluding his career in 1991 with the Miami Dolphins. In retirement, McNorton spent many years as a talent scout.
The cornerback concluded his run in the pros with 20 interceptions and six fumble recoveries. He picked off a career-high seven passes in his second season of 1983.
Only one other player from GC is listed as having made it to the NFL. Offensive lineman Louie Fritsch played a season with the Evansville Crimson Giants in 1921.
Former Tigers coach Blanton Collier led the Cleveland Browns for eight seasons from 1963 to 1970 with a sterling record of 76 wins, 34 losses and two ties.
“I also thank Georgetown College for the quality education and lifelong experiences that I had here,” McNorton said. “Last but not least, I would like to thank my lord and savior, Jesus Christ. None of this happens without him. His grace and blessings were beneficial to me. I just thank him so much.”
McNorton has another connection to the Lions. Calvin Johnson, regarded as the greatest receiver in the history of the franchise, is married to his daughter, Brittney. | https://www.news-graphic.com/sports/college-football-tigers-give-82-alum-mcnorton-heros-welcome-as-ky-pro-football-hall-of/article_af74bca2-2bd5-11ed-8d09-dfeaa85c05e3.html | 2022-09-04T01:39:19Z | https://www.news-graphic.com/sports/college-football-tigers-give-82-alum-mcnorton-heros-welcome-as-ky-pro-football-hall-of/article_af74bca2-2bd5-11ed-8d09-dfeaa85c05e3.html | false |

No. 9 Oklahoma beats UTEP 45-13 in Venables’ coaching debut
By CLIFF BRUNT
AP Sports Writer
NORMAN, Okla. (AP) — Dillon Gabriel passed for two touchdowns and ran for another and No. 9 Oklahoma rolled past UTEP 45-13 on Saturday for Brent Venables’ first career victory as a head coach. Venables was a full-time assistant for the previous 26 years in stints at Kansas State, Oklahoma and Clemson. He took over after Lincoln Riley left to take the Southern California job last December. Gabriel, a transfer from Central Florida, connected on 15 of 23 passes for 233 yards. Eric Gray rushed for 102 yards, Brayden Willis caught two touchdown passes and Marcus Major rushed for two scores for the Sooners.

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (AP) — Hundreds of thousands of people signed petitions this year backing proposed ballot initiatives to expand voting access, ensure abortion rights and legalize recreational marijuana in Arizona, Arkansas and Michigan.
Yet voters might not get a say because Republican officials or judges have blocked the proposals from the November elections, citing flawed wording, procedural shortcomings or insufficient petition signatures.
At the same time, Republican lawmakers in Arkansas and Arizona have placed constitutional amendments on the ballot proposing to make it harder to approve citizen initiatives in the future.
The Republican pushback against the initiative process is part of a several-year trend that gained steam as Democratic-aligned groups have increasingly used petitions to force public votes on issues that Republican-led legislatures have opposed. In reliably Republican Missouri, for example, voters have approved initiatives to expand Medicaid, raise the minimum wage and legalize medical marijuana. An initiative seeking to allow recreational pot is facing a court challenge from an anti-drug activist aiming to knock it off the November ballot.
Some Democrats contend Republicans are subverting the will of the people by making the ballot initiative process more difficult.
“What is happening now is just a web of technicalities to thwart the process in states where voters are using the people’s tool to make an immediate positive change in their lives,” said Chris Melody Fields Figueredo, executive director of the Ballot Initiative Strategy Center, which has worked with progressive groups sponsoring the blocked initiatives.
“That is not the way our democracy should work,” she added
Republicans who have thrown up hurdles to initiative petitions contend they are protecting the integrity of the lawmaking process against well-funded interest groups trying to bend state policies in their favor.
“I think the Legislature is a much purer way to get things done and it represents the people much better, rather than having this jungle where you just throw it on the ballot,” said South Dakota state Rep. Tim Goodwin, who has perennially targeted the initiative process with restrictions.
About half the states allow citizen initiatives, in which petition signers can bypass a legislature to place proposed laws or constitutional changes directly before voters. But executive or judicial officials often still have some role in the process, typically by certifying that the ballot wording is clear and accurate and that petition circulators gathered enough valid signatures of registered voters.
In Michigan this past week, two Republican members of the bipartisan Board of State Canvassers blocked initiatives to enshrine abortion rights in the state constitution and expand opportunities for voting. Each measure had significantly more than the required 425,000 signatures. But GOP board members said the voting measure had unclear wording and the abortion measure was flawed because of spacing problems that scrunched some words together.
Supporters have appealed both decisions to the Michigan Supreme Court, which consists of a majority of Democratic-appointed judges.
The Arkansas Supreme Court, whose justices run in nonpartisan elections, is weighing an appeal of an August decision blocking an initiative that would legalize recreational marijuana for adults.
The State Board of Election Commissioners, which has just one Democrat among its many Republicans, determined that the ballot title was misleading because it failed to mention it would repeal potency limits in an existing medical marijuana provision. Because the deadline has passed to certify initiative titles, the Supreme Court has allowed the measure on the general election ballot while it decides whether the votes will be counted.
A lawsuit by initiative supporters contends a 2019 law passed by the Republican-led Legislature violates the Arkansas Constitution by allowing the board to reject ballot titles.
“The (initiative) process in Arkansas has gotten consistently harder each cycle, as the Legislature adds more and more requirements,” said Steve Lancaster, a lawyer for Responsible Growth Arkansas, which is sponsoring the marijuana amendment.
It would get even harder if voters support a legislatively referred amendment on the November ballot that would require a 60% vote to approve citizen-initiated ballot measures or future constitutional amendments.
In Arizona, the primarily Republican-appointed Supreme Court recently blocked a proposed constitutional amendment that would have extended early voting and limited lobbyist gifts to lawmakers. The measure also would have specifically prohibited the Legislature from overturning the results of presidential elections, which some Republicans had explored after then- President Donald Trump’s loss in 2020.
After a lower court initially ruled the measure could appear on the November ballot, Arizona’s high court instructed the judge to reconsider. Then it upheld a subsequent ruling throwing out enough petition signatures to prevent the initiative from qualifying for the ballot.
Still on the ballot are several other amendments referred by Arizona’s Republican-led Legislature. Those measures would limit initiatives to a single subject, require a 60% supermajority to approve tax proposals and expand the Legislature’s authority to change voter-approved initiatives.
Those proposals come after Arizona Republicans have spent the past decade enacting laws making it more difficult to get citizen initiatives on the ballot. State laws now require petition sheets to be precisely printed and ban the use of a copy machine to create new ones. Other laws require paid circulators to include their registration number on each petition sheet, get it notarized and check a box saying they were paid.
“The effect is to make it much harder, much more expensive to get the signatures to put one of these propositions on the ballot,” said Terry Goddard, a Democrat who served as the state’s attorney general from 2003 through 2011.
After years of trying, Goddard finally succeeded this year in getting an initiative on the ballot that would require nonprofit groups that spend large amounts on elections to reveal their donors.
Earlier this summer, South Dakota voters defeated a measure that would have made it harder to pass initiatives on taxes and spending. The proposal from the Republican-led Legislature would have required a 60% vote to raise taxes or spend over a certain amount of money. Voters rejected the measure by 67%.
“This just seems like a way to suppress voters. honestly,” Joshua Matzner, a Democrat, said after voting against it.

BOSTON (AP) — Hackers stole personal data including Social Security numbers, addresses and account numbers of home mortgage holders at KeyBank, the bank reports, in the breach of a third-party vendor that serves multiple corporate clients.
The hackers obtained the information on July 5 after breaking into computers at the insurance services provider Overby-Seawell Company, according to a letter that Cleveland-based KeyBank sent to affected residential mortgage customers.
KeyBank, which operates in 15 states and has close to $200 billion in assets, would not say how many of its customers were affected or answer any other questions about the breach. In a statement, it said it was notified of the data theft on Aug. 4 and KeyBank systems and operations were unaffected.
Overby-Seawell did not respond to phone messages and emails sent to executives seeking comment. In the statement sent Friday to The Associated Press, KeyBank said Kennesaw, Georgia-based Overby-Seawell “suffered a cybersecurity incident that compromised data of its corporate clients.” It did not elaborate.
According to its website, Overby-Seawell’s customers include banks, credit unions, mortgage servicers, finance companies and property investors. Its products include a tracking system for real-time insurance monitoring that can be integrated with other financial industry software platforms.
It is a subsidiary of the Breckenridge Group, also of Kennesaw.
In an Aug. 26 letter shared with the AP by an affected mortgage-holder, KeyBank said the information acquired in the Overby-Seawell breach related to their mortgage includes their name, address, mortgage account number and the first eight digits of their nine-digit Social Security number.
That’s plenty of information for identity thieves to commit serious fraud.
“We take this matter very seriously and have notified all affected individuals,” KeyBank said in the letter.
KeyBank said Overby-Seawell had notified law enforcement and was investigating the breach with the help of third-party cybersecurity experts. It encouraged the mortgage holder to sign up for free fraud monitoring. | https://www.wowktv.com/news/u-s-world/ap-keybank-hackers-of-third-party-provider-stole-customer-data/ | 2022-09-04T02:08:44Z | https://www.wowktv.com/news/u-s-world/ap-keybank-hackers-of-third-party-provider-stole-customer-data/ | false |
TUPELO, Miss. (WTVA) - An airport worker stole a plane in Tupelo and threatened to crash it into a Walmart store.
The situation began at approximately 5 a.m. on Saturday, Sept. 3.
“TPD was notified that a pilot of an airplane (possibly King Air type) was flying over Tupelo. The pilot has made contact with E911 and is threatening to intentionally crash into Wal Mart on West Main,” the Tupelo Police Department reported at 6:37 a.m.
Tupelo Police Chief John Quaka said the pilot, Cory Patterson, 29, of Tupelo, stole the plane, called 911 and threatened to crash into the Walmart store on West Main Street.
The store and the surrounding area were evacuated.
Quaka said Patterson has previous flight instruction but doesn't believe he’s a licensed pilot.
Patterson works for Tupelo Aviation which is at the Tupelo Regional Airport. The police chief said Patterson has access to planes.
Quaka said Patterson fuels aircraft, and the plane was fully fueled the night before.
Negotiators made contact with the pilot and convinced him to land at the airport.
However, Patterson did not know how to land the plane. The police chief said another pilot tried to help Patterson land the plane.
Patterson tried to land but aborted the landing about 100 feet from the ground and traveled northwest.
“At approximately 9:32, the pilot posted on Facebook a message: in an essence it said ‘goodbye,'” Quaka said.
The plane would eventually land in a field near the Benton County and Tippah County border, which is about 40 miles northwest of Tupelo. He was taken into custody.
Overall, the situation lasted approximately five hours.
According to the FAA registry, the plane is registered under Southeast Aviation LLC.
The Tupelo Police Department is charging Patterson with grand larceny and making a terroristic threat. He may face federal charges.

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. (AP) — Arkansas quarterback KJ Jefferson felt disrespected when he wasn’t named to any preseason all-Southeastern Conference team.
Jefferson’s opening week performance could earn more attention for the player who had the SEC’s second-best touchdown-to-interception ratio last year and was the leading returning rusher at the position in the conference..
Jefferson threw for 223 yards and three touchdowns and ran for another 62 yards and a score to lead No. 19 Arkansas to a 31-24 win over No. 23 Cincinnati on Saturday.
“Seems to me like when the game gets a little tighter, a little closer, when he’s really got to take over the game, he’s got the knack to do it,” Arkansas coach Sam Pittman said. “Seemed to me like most every time we need him to win the game, he makes some kind of play.
Jefferson established himself as escape-artist of sorts last year, his 240-pound frame proving difficult to take down. Little changed there as most of his yards on the ground came after contact against Cincinnati. Through the air, he built a rapport with tight end Trey Knox who caught two of the three touchdown tosses, including one that was quite literally a toss: a jump-pass from five yards to give Arkansas a 14-0 lead at halftime.
Cincinnati’s Ben Bryant, a transfer from Eastern Michigan, ultimately threw for more yards passing (325) and just one fewer touchdown, but an interception at the Arkansas 20 turned into a Razorbacks score on the next possession.
The pick was one of several mistakes the Bearcats made. Four of Cincinnati’s first-half drives ended in Arkansas territory, but the interception halted one and Ryan Coe missed two field goals, including one from 25 yards, as well.
Cincinnati had pulled within a touchdown on Bryant’s throw to Nick Mardner halfway through the third quarter and then recovered a Jefferson fumble inside his own 10 on the ensuing play. The Bearcats started three yards from the end zone, but four penalties later, including two for delay of game, they managed just a 25-yard field goal.
Arkansas followed with a 32-yard field three minutes later and Jefferson threw his third touchdown on the possession that followed, a 32-yarder to Knox, to rebuild the lead to 14 points.
Knox, a senior, was a starting wide receiver his freshman year and had 28 catches and three touchdowns, but had just seven catches his sophomore season in Pittman’s debut 2020 season. He moved to tight end and caught 20 balls as a junior last season. Saturday he had six catches for 75 yards and two touchdowns.
“He’s worked hard at tight end and he believes he’s a tight end. He is. He’s a good one,” Pittman said. “Coming off the field on his second TD and went down their side and I said ‘You happy you moved to tight end?’ Those are special moments because you never know if it’s going to work out.”
The game was Arkansas’ first Top 25 matchup at home since 2016.
The Razorbacks were 9-4 last season, their best finish since 2011 .
“When Cincinnati was put on the schedule I was saying ‘why?’ to be honest with you,” Pittman said. “Am I tickled to death that we’re 1-0 and we beat Cincinnati? Yes. I don’t want to play them. We’ve already played them once. That’s plenty.”
THE PORTAL GIVETH
Most of Arkansas’ big plays not involving Knox and Jefferson came from players picked up via the transfer portal. Domineck (Georgia Tech) and Drew Sanders (Alabama) had sacks. Dwight McGlothern (LSU) had Arkansas’ interception. Matt Landers (Toledo) started and caught three passes for 43 yards while Haselwood (Oklahoma) had three grabs for 42 yards and the score.
BEAT UP
Cincinnati’s rally came in large part because of the passing game. Bryant took advantage of Arkansas losing starting nickel Myles Slusher and starting safety Jalen Catalon late in the second quarter and early in the second half.
The Bearcats’ first touchdown came immediately after Catalon, a preseason first-team All-SEC selection and former freshman All-American, left the game.
Pittman said Slusher should be OK going forward, but he was less sure about Catalon. He did not disclose either injury.
THE TAKEAWAY
Arkansas’ offense, with Jefferson at quarterback, is SEC worthy. The defense struggled in the second half after losing two starters from the secondary.
Cincinnati had the talent to win the game, but its mistakes were too plentiful against a quality opponent.
POLL IMPLICATIONS
Arkansas should find itself comfortably still ranked ahead of its SEC opener next week.
Cincinnati is likely to fall out of the Top 25 despite a fair showing.
UP NEXT
Arkansas opens SEC play against South Carolina at home in Week 2. The game will be South Carolina’s first in Fayetteville since 2013.
Cincinnati will host FCS opponent Kennesaw State at Nippert Stadium.

Wide Open Cup Playoffs Crank Up In Darlington
By Deb Williams | Senior Writer
RacinToday.com
DARLINGTON, S.C. – When NASCAR’s Cup playoffs open in Sunday’s Cook Out Southern 500 at Darlington Raceway the 16 title contenders don’t consider anyone a clear favorite for the championship.
Instead, they point to inconsistency and the Next Gen car as the great equalizers in this year’s title race.
With just 15 points separating top seed Chase Elliott from second seed Joey Logano and only 20 points separating Logano from the 16th-seeded Austin Dillon, Logano described this year as “the most close playoff battle we’ve had coming into the playoffs.”
“Usually, there are drivers that come with zero playoff points,” explained Logano, who put his Ford on the pole Saturday with a 168.521-mph lap on the 1.366-mile track. “Now, you’ve got some with wins, stage wins, some regular season points that switched over. I don’t think we’ve ever had it this close before and that’s because of inconsistency.
“We kind of knew this would happen at the beginning of the year. When you have a brand-new car, the cycles happen quicker; whereas, typically, before a team will figure it out and know they’ve got two-and-a-half to three months of kicking butt before the next cycle comes. Now, it’s like three weeks before the next team is the dominant team. We’ve seen this cycle happen four or five times already this year, so you just have to hope you cycle to the front when it matters the most.”
Elliott, who qualified 23rd, said how tight the field had become during the last six months was “pretty significant.”
“At the beginning of the year you had cars that were superior,” Elliott continued. “If your car was driving pretty good, you could drive your way up through the field, but as the year has gone on everyone has gotten closer, which is expected.”
Ross Chastain believes the Next Gen car has gotten “us 80 percent parity across the field.”
“I don’t think you’ll get 100 percent, but I think it got us 80 percent farther than I’ve ever seen in the sport,” said Chastain, who qualified 12th for Sunday’s race. “I don’t know how you can call anyone a favorite (in the playoffs).”
Eight drivers competing for the driver championship qualified in the top 10. Daniel Suarez’s team encountered trouble during pre-race inspection for the playoffs’ inaugural race. His Chevrolet failed inspection three times. Initially, there were problems with the body and then with the car’s toe. Suarez wasn’t allowed to qualify, his car chief was ejected, and he lost his pit selection. Once Sunday’s race receives the green flag, Suarez must serve a pass-through penalty.
Six teams are represented in this year’s playoffs with four of those organizations – Hendrick Motorsports, Team Penske, Trackhouse Racing, and Richard Childress Racing — having their entire driver roster in championship contention. Kyle Larson returns to defend his 2021 title; however, the veterans have four newcomers with which to contend. Trackhouse Racing drivers Suarez and Chastain are in the playoffs for the first time along with Stewart-Haas Racing’s Chase Briscoe and Team Penske’s Austin Cindric, the third rookie to contend for the title. Denny Hamlin made the playoffs his rookie season in 2006 as did Elliott in 2016.
“Advancing as far in the playoffs as possible is where my head is at and where I think this team is looking,” said Cindric, who qualified sixth. “I think it’s also something that we’re capable of. It’s been a tight season and I think execution and consistency has been at a premium and I think those that are able to perform in that manner is where I think I have to have my mind.
“I think we’re gonna have to put three really great races together to move onto the next round and start all over again. With that mentality, I don’t think there’s much to lose and a lot to gain.”
Darlington, Kansas and Bristol comprise the playoffs first round with Bristol being the cutoff event that eliminates the lowest four drivers in the standings. The Round of 12 is comprised of Texas, Talladega and the Charlotte ROVAL, while the tracks in the Round of 8 are Las Vegas, Homestead-Miami and Martinsville. The historic half-mile Martinsville track once again determines the Championship 4.

WEED, Calif. (AP) — Her home destroyed, dog missing, and 10-year relationship with her boyfriend recently ended – all Naomi Vogelsang could do on Saturday was sit outside of a Northern California wildfire evacuation center with $20 in her pocket, waiting for a ride to the casino.
“It can’t be any worse,” she said.
Vogelsang is one of thousands of people displaced this week by California’s latest inferno, this time in the small community of Weed about 280 miles (451 kilometers) northeast of San Francisco. Most visitors know this town as a novelty, a place to stop while traveling on Interstate 5 and buy an ironic T-shirt.
But for the people who live here, the past few years have introduced another worry in a world full of them: Dark skies, swirling ash and flames that race so quickly they leave little time for escape.
This time it was a blaze known as the Mill Fire. Flames raced from Roseburg Forest Products, which makes wood products, into the Lincoln Heights neighborhood where a significant number of homes burned and residents had to flee for their lives on Friday afternoon. The blaze spread to more than 6.1 square miles (15.9 square kilometers) by Saturday morning and was 20% contained.
After fleeing the blaze, 63-year-old Judy Christenson remembered a similar escape 40 years ago when, as a young parent, she had to rush her children out of a burning home. Last summer, a wildfire forced her to evacuate and leave her pets behind. Now, Christenson says she leaves harnesses on her pets all the time so she can grab them at a moment’s notice and leave.
“Whenever this happens, I get really bad,” Christenson said from the front seat of a car at an evacuation center in Yreka as Felix, her orange cat, napped in the backseat. “I can’t think straight.”
Nestled in the shadow of Mt. Shasta — a 14,000-foot (4,267.2-meter) volcano that is the second-highest peak in the Cascade Range — Weed is no stranger to wildfires.
Strong winds in the area that fan flames drew the town’s founder for a very different reason. Abner Weed, a Civil War soldier who is said to have witnessed the Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee’s surrender before moving to California, chose to put a sawmill there because the wind would dry out the timber, according to Bob West, a lifelong resident who co-owns Ellie’s Espresso and Bakery, a coffee and sandwich shop that contains some historical items of the town’s past.
The winds make Weed and the surrounding area a perilous place for wildfires, whipping small flames into a frenzy. Weed has seen three major fires since 2014, a period of extreme drought that has prompted the largest and most destructive fires in California history.
That drought persists as California heads into what traditionally is the worst of the fire season. Scientists say climate change has made the West warmer and drier over the last three decades and will continue to make weather more extreme and wildfires more frequent and destructive.
Dominique Mathes, 37, said he’s had some close calls with wildfires since he has lived in Weed. But he’s not interested in leaving.
“It’s a beautiful place,” he said. “Everybody has risks everywhere, like Florida’s got hurricanes and floods, Louisiana has got tornadoes and all that stuff. So, it happens everywhere. Unfortunately here, it’s fires.”
Evacuation orders were quickly put in effect Friday for 7,500 people – including West, who is 53 and has lived in Weed since he was a 1-year-old. He had never had to evacuate for a fire, but now he’s had to do it twice.
“It’s way worse than it used to be,” he said. “It affects our community because people leave because they don’t want to rebuild.”
Cal Fire Siskiyou Unit Chief Phil Anzo said crews worked all day and night to protect structures in Weed and in a subdivision to the east known as Carrick Addition. He said about 100 structures were destroyed.
Two people were brought to Mercy Medical Center Mount Shasta. One was in stable condition and the other was transferred to UC Davis Medical Center, which has a burn unit.
“There’s a lot at stake on that Mill Fire,” Anzo said. “There’s a lot of communities, a lot of homes there.”
Evacuees and firefighters quickly filled up local hotels while others rushed to stay with family and friends outside of the evacuation zone.
Vogelsang was not as fortunate. She said she slept on a bench in Weed until she could get a ride to the evacuation center. She said she’s spent most of the time crying about Bella, her 10-year-old English bulldog who — despite her best efforts — would not follow her out of the fire and is lost.
“My dog was my everything,” she said. “I just feel like I lost everything that mattered.”

Anthony Levine has a large tattoo outlining the state of Louisiana on his back, but he's hardly had a chance to prove himself there.
On Monday Night Football, it will be the Abbeville, La., native's first regular-season game near home in the Superdome.
Levine wasn't a big-time prospect coming out of Louisiana. He played college football at little Tennessee State. He was undrafted, cut by his first team and unemployed for about three months.
Levine's NFL career hasn't been like a stroll down Bourbon Street. It hasn't been Big Easy.
Now when Levine goes back to face the Saints, he'll be playing in front of a lot of family as a starting cornerback for the Baltimore Ravens. And even most of his extended family won't be entirely behind him.
"I've tried to convert some of them to Ravens fans, but they just aren't having it," Levine said with a laugh. "They say, 'I love you, but I'm going to die a Saints fan.'"
Levine has replaced Jimmy Smith in the Ravens defense. He got high praise after his first test against the Tennessee Titans before the bye, but he will be in for a whole other level of difficulty against quarterback Drew Brees and the Saints.
And the pressure is on with Smith out for the rest of the season due to a foot injury. Levine will be a big part of the defense during the playoff chase – something that didn't seem imaginable not long ago.
"I am just really gratified, as a coach, to see where he's at," Head Coach John Harbaugh said.
"Now, he has challenges in front of him, and he'll be the first to tell you he has a lot to prove, but I think that's why he's where he's at because he believes he has a lot to prove. He takes that kind of attitude with him to work every day."
After going undrafted in 2010, Levine was originally signed by the Green Bay Packers. He made the team's practice squad in his first year, and was on the roster when they won Super Bowl XLV. While he got a ring, he didn't feel like he was a part of it.
Levine was cut coming out of training camp during his second year, and this time the Packers didn't immediately call back. Levine spent 11 weeks without a job. He* *looked into re-enrolling at Tennessee State's psychology department. He wanted to get into sports or child psychology, and was ready to start classes during their second semester.
"I was very close to leaving the NFL," Levine said. "I was trying to work out for anybody, just get a workout. Nobody wanted to work me out or anything."
Ultimately, the Packers called and brought Levine back to finish the season in Green Bay. They cut him again after the next summer's training camp, but this time Levine had proven himself with a strong preseason.
Heading into the summer of 2012, the Ravens and Falcons were interested. Levine rolled the dice going with Baltimore even though he thought he might have a better chance of sticking in Atlanta.
"I picked Baltimore only because of Ray Lewis and Ed Reed," Levine said. "You can't pass up a chance to meet those guys and learn from them."
Levine became somewhat close with Reed, who mentored him as a young fellow safety. Levine was too nervous to befriend Lewis, though, he admits. Lewis would talk to him sometimes, but Levine was too bashful to even ask Lewis for his autograph.
Turns out, three other men had an even bigger impact on Levine's career: cornerback Corey Graham, safety James Ihedigbo and linebacker Brendon Ayanbadejo. All three were special teams standouts who eventually carved a niche on defense and were key members of the Ravens' Super Bowl XLVII team.
Levine said Graham, especially, was his role model.
"They made me change my whole outlook on special teams," Levine said. "It became fun and something I wanted to dominate . My whole goal became being a Pro Bowl special teamer."
Levine also developed a close relationship with Ravens Special Teams Coordinator Jerry Rosburg.
"I just felt that even when I wasn't playing well, he always believed in me," Levine said. "When you feel like somebody believes in you that much, you work that much harder for them."
Everything was going well for Levine in 2012. He suited up for his first NFL game on Nov. 18 in Pittsburgh and performed so well on special teams that he had an expanded role on the unit the next week heading into San Diego.
Then came the next hurdle – in the form of 6-foot-2, 265-pound linebacker Melvin Ingram.
"I remember like it happened just now," Levine said. "I'm running down like a deer and Ingram came out from behind a trap block and I didn't see him. He definitely laid the boom on me. It was ugly."
The hit broke Levine's collarbone, sending him to injured reserve after just two NFL games. He waited more than two years for his first break and it ended with a break. And for a second time, Levine was on the sideline during a Super Bowl run.
"It was crushing," he said. "I was talking to my dad and mom and kind of depressed. I finally got a chance and this happened."
Levine came back last season and kept grinding away on special teams. He finished the year second on the team in special teams tackles (11), trailing linebacker Albert McClellan by one. During that process, Levine used his special teams work to hone his skills as a defensive back.
"It's been my experience that guys that perform on special teams perform on offense or defense when they get their opportunity," Harbaugh said. "There are plenty of guys that think they can play offense and defense and aren't good on special teams and get a rude awakening in this league, and they're usually out of the league pretty quickly. Anthony is not one of those guys."
Levine began this season on special teams, but coaches also noticed that he could be a valuable cornerback, as well.
They gave him a shot to play the position in the final preseason game, also in New Orleans. Levine proved himself then, and continued to do so in practices when the Ravens were short on cornerbacks. When Smith went down, Defensive Coordiantor Dean Pees tabbed Levine because Levine "competed as well as anybody and deserved to start."
Levine split first-team practice reps with Danny Gorrer, who was signed the week leading up to the Tennessee Week 10 game. Levine wasn't sure he was going to start until hours before facing the Titans.
When he got word, he grew so nervous that he nearly vomited three times. He asked running back Justin Forsett for help, and the two prayed together.
Levine turned in a standout performance, notching four tackles and two pass deflections. He proved he can do it. And now he's going to have to keep it going, starting with Monday night against the Saints. "I can't put it in words about how emotional it is starting," Levine said. "Doing it the long way, the hard way, is so much more satisfying. I had to work for it instead of it being handed to me." | https://www.baltimoreravens.com/news/just-who-is-anthony-levine-14410410 | 2022-09-04T02:20:23Z | https://www.baltimoreravens.com/news/just-who-is-anthony-levine-14410410 | true |

Li starts slow, finishes strong to lead LPGA event
Sylvania, Ohio — Lucy Li played with a lead for the first time on the LPGA Tour and the 19-year-old was up to the task Saturday, recovering from a sluggish start for a 4-under 67 and a one-shot lead in the Dana Open .
Li was 2 over through seven holes and quickly fading from the picture at Highland Meadows when she responded with five birdies over the next 10 holes to regain the lead and set up a final round filled with possibilities.
Lexi Thompson ran off three straight birdies late in the round for a 65, while Caroline Masson of Germany also had a 65. They were one shot behind.
Six other players were three shots back, including Lydia Ko, a two-time tournament winner who had the low round of the day at 64.
“I was probably a little nervous. It wasn’t anything crazy, but I haven’t felt nervous in a long time,” Li said. “Actually making those bogeys might have helped a little, just getting that out of the way and knowing that I could just freewheel it out there a little.”
Li was at 14-under 199, and the final group offers a pair of prodigies.
Thompson was 12 when she first qualified for the US Women’s Open at Pine Needles. Seven years later, Li broke her record when she qualified for the 2014 Women’s Open at Pinehurst No. 2.
“It’ll be great,” Thompson said. “I played with her a little bit – not so much out here. But I think everybody knows how amazing of a player she is. Just speaks Wonders to the amount of work that she’s put into her game, just the amount of Talent she has.”
Li recalls playing a practice round with Thompson in the ’14 Women’s Open.
“She outdrove me by like 60 yards. She probably still outdrives me by 20 yards,” Li said. “I haven’t spent that much time on the LPGA, so I haven’t really gotten to know her that well. She’s a lot – quite a bit older than me.”
Thompson is 27.
This week already felt like a bonus for the California teen. Li secured her LPGA Tour card for next year with two wins and a runner-up finish on the Epson Tour, which offers LPGA cards to its leading 10 players.
Li received a sponsor’s invitation in Canada last week and tied for ninth in the CP Women’s Open, which got her into the field in Ohio. Now she has a chance to win and join the LPGA Tour for its final two months of the season.
But it will require navigating through a traffic jam of key players, a list that includes four major champions. Also in the mix is Nasa Hataoka, the defending champion, who had a 67 and was part of the big group at 11-under 202.
Equally daunting is Ko, who won at Highland Meadows in 2014 and 2016 and had a great chance in 2020 until a bogey on the par-5 closing hole.
Ko started on the back nine and after a bogey on the 11th, she holed out for eagle on No. 12 and ran off a series of birdies. She had a chance to go even lower on her final hole, the reachable par-4 ninth. But her chip from the right of the green didn’t get up the hill, she chipped strong and missed the par putt.
“They moved the tee forward a little on 12 and I was just, ‘Hit driver off the tee.’ I only a gap wedge,” she said. “It’s not the greatest finish. … I did what I needed to do.”
For Thompson, the No. 7 player in the Women’s world ranking, it’s another chance to end more than three years without winning.
“I go into every tournament wanting to win. Yeah, it hasn’t worked out the way I want it to in a few events, but that’s golf,” Thompson said. “I think you never lose; you’re always learning. There is always something to build on and learn from those days.
“It’s golf. I mean, it’s a crazy game. It can be with you one day and not the next.” | https://niuenews1.com/li-starts-slow-finishes-strong-to-lead-lpga-event/ | 2022-09-04T02:27:04Z | https://niuenews1.com/li-starts-slow-finishes-strong-to-lead-lpga-event/ | true |
LAFC look to end unusual skid against Real Salt Lake
Los Angeles FC aim to break out of a stunning three-match losing streak when they host Real Salt Lake on Sunday night.
LAFC have dropped three straight matches by a cumulative 8-3 score after losing just four of their first 25 matches. The club won seven consecutive games directly before the sudden skid.
LAFC (18-7-3, 57 points) sits three points behind the Philadelphia Union in the battle for the Supporters' Shield. But right now, just getting one victory would be welcome for the Western Conference leaders.
"We just have to stay together, train harder, improve, become stronger," LAFC midfielder Ilie Sanchez told reporters. "Because we have six games left and we are still top of the table and in the position of winning the Supporters' Shield."
Los Angeles dropped a 2-1 road decision against the Houston Dynamo on Wednesday. Cristian Arango's header in the 19th minute was LAFC's lone tally.
Arango has scored a team-best 14 goals and he surely likes seeing Real Salt Lake as the opponent. The Colombian has scored two goals in each of his two career appearances against RSL.
The most recent time was in a 4-1 win on Aug. 6 in Sandy, Utah. He also had a brace in September 2021 against RSL.
Since last month's loss to LAFC, Salt Lake has a four-match unbeaten streak (2-0-2).
Salt Lake (11-8-9, 42 points) is tied for fifth in the West with Nashville SC.
Salt Lake posted a solid 3-0 home win over the Minnesota United on Wednesday. Sergio Cordova scored his fourth goal in five matches to increase his team-best total to eight.
"The confidence that I have earned has helped me play a lot better and return to what I do best," Cordova said. "It really helps that I have the permission to play loose and to make mistakes without having severe consequences, so I continue to grow."
Cordova also had RSL's lone goal in last month's loss to LAFC.
Salt Lake is just 3-6-5 on the road but is unbeaten (1-0-2) in its last three. LAFC is 11-1-2 at home.
LAFC has controlled the series with a 9-2-0 mark and has won the past five meetings. However, one of RSL's victories was a 3-2 upset in the 2018 playoffs.

NEW YORK (AP) — Ajla Tomljanovic wanted to beat Serena Williams, of course. Wanted to seize the chance for a big victory, wanted to add to her career highlights, wanted to reach the fourth round of the U.S. Open for the first time.
Still, it was not easy for her to watch as tears rolled down Williams’ cheeks after Tomljanovic won 7-5, 6-7 (4), 6-1 in Arthur Ashe Stadium on Friday night.
“Probably the most conflicted I’ve ever felt after a win. During the match I was so eager to win. I mean, I wanted to win as much as the next person, because I didn’t look at her like, ‘Oh, Serena, her last tournament,’” said Tomljanovic, a 29-year-old Australian who is ranked 46th.
“But then, when it ended, it almost didn’t feel right,” Tomljanovic said. “When she started talking about her family and everything, I got emotional, because I can relate to having a strong bond with your family. When she said that she wouldn’t be there if it wasn’t for them, I relate to that a lot. Just the whole moment after was just tough to handle a little bit.”
Give credit to Tomljanovic for keeping her composure during the match, never letting the strokes or aura of Williams get too big.
Tomljanovic did her best work at the baseline, hanging with Williams on long exchanges there and coming up with big groundstrokes against as big a hitter as there’s been. And then there was this: Tomljanovic trailed by at least one break in each set, including at 5-3 in the first, 4-0 and 5-2 in the second and 1-0 in the third.
She needed six match points to close it out, but close it out she did.
“I tried,” Williams said, “but Ajla just played a little bit better.”
Williams, as most everyone knows, is the owner of 23 Grand Slam titles — including six at the U.S. Open alone — and that doesn’t even count women’s doubles or mixed doubles.
Tomljanovic?
She began the evening with a losing record in Grand Slam matches, 28-31. She never had won a third-round match at Flushing Meadows until Friday. She has yet to win so much as one quarterfinal match at any major tournament; her big breakthrough to that round came at Wimbledon last year, when she defeated Emma Raducanu to get there (Raducanu would go on to win the U.S. Open two months later).
Tomljanovic returned to the quarterfinals at the All England Club this July, and now has a chance to get that far in New York if she can beat 35th-ranked Liudmila Samsonova on Sunday.
Might be hard to forget about Friday, though, and all that transpired.
Start with the sellout crowd of 23,859, which was pretty much entirely backing Williams, who turns 41 this month and announced last month she was preparing to retire. Tomljanovic tried to block some of the noise out, even covering her head with a towel during changeovers.
Tomljanovic understood the fervor. Indeed, she apologized to the spectators for her victory — not something you hear every day.
But here is why: She considers herself a fan of Williams, too, and has fond memories of watching the American play in Slam finals on TV.
“What she’s achieved is absolutely incredible. I don’t know if it’s ever going to be repeated while I’m still around,” Tomljanovic said. “I still have years left in me. I want to dream bigger than I have so far, because that’s what she embodies.”

The Rams are 3rd in the NFL in homegrown players
The Los Angeles Rams are viewed by many as a team that ‘bought’ or ‘traded’ for the majority of their players due to their top-heavy roster. Despite the Rams taking an aggressive approach to acquiring proven talent instead of maintaining early-round draft picks, Los Angeles has the third-most homegrown players in the league.
The only two teams that have more homegrown (players the team drafted) than the Rams are the Dallas Cowboys and the Baltimore Ravens.
The list below goes to show that Los Angeles has done a fantastic job at being able to find contributors in the later rounds of drafts while continuing to add stars via free agency or on the trade market.
Earlier this offseason, the Rams signed Veterans Bobby Wagner and Allen Robinson to further their status as a star-studded team. That came after they added players such as Matthew Stafford, Jalen Ramsey and Leonard Floyd in recent years.
On the outside looking in, it’s easy to say that the Rams have built a contending roster due to enticing star players to play for them. But in reality, they are the Defending Super Bowl Champions because of their ability to develop young talent around the star players they have under contract.

Ardmore honors 1982 State Championship team
Tigers recognized team before game against Ada
ARDMORE, Okla. (KXII) - Before the annual Battle of the Cats game against the Ada Cougars, the Ardmore Tigers took a moment to recognize one of their most historic groups in all of program history as the 1982 State Championship team returned to Ardmore with nothing but smiles for former players and coaches.
“It feels real good to be back. Look I’m so happy I don’t know what to do. I’m just so glad to be home,” said former Ardmore wide receiver Troy Harris.
Former Ardmore linebacker Randy Booker added, “It feels great. I enjoyed seeing my teammates, my old coaches and things like that. Blessed to be here. Blessed with my health and things like that, so it’s a great day.”
The 1982 Tigers were absolutely electric in their state championship run, as the Tiger defense allowed just 50 points throughout the season.
“Physically, probably the fastest football team and the most team speed that I ever worked with. That’s in Texas or Oklahoma,” said former Ardmore assistant coach Larry Roberts.

Airline staffing shortages impact Labor Day travelers at PBIA
Just a couple days after airlines revised their customer service agreements clarifying when passengers can receive meal and hotel vouchers if a flight is canceled or delayed, delays once again impacted holiday travelers.
As of Saturday afternoon, FlightAware reported 15 delays as Palm Beach International Airport and 70 delays at Fort Lauderdale International Airport.
Passengers who spoke to WPTV said their flights were delayed because of insufficient staffing.
“They didn’t have a copilot, first officer," said Katherine Orlebeke, who traveled from Stuart to catch a flight.
She said her flight was delayed several hours, causing her to miss her connecting flight.
“Almost everybody missed their connection," Orlebeke said.
The Director of Florida Atlantic University's hospitality and tourism management program, Peter Ricci, said the delays due to staffing shortages will likely persist through Thanksgiving.
"There is almost zero likelihood that airlines can get staff hired, trained, and in the air on time," Ricci said in a statement to WPTV.

INDIANAPOLIS — An extremist, white nationalist hate group marched through the streets of Indianapolis on Saturday afternoon while chanting, carrying signs and beating drums.
Video given to FOX59 taken by a witness downtown shows around 50 white males dressed in khakis, dark shirts and face coverings roaming the city streets. The extremist group Patriot Front has claimed they were the organizers of the march on their account on the social media site Telegram.
Patriot Front is classified by the Southern Poverty Law Center as a designated hate group based out of Texas that has a white nationalist ideology. SPLC describes the group as “an image-obsessed organization” that “focuses on theatrical rhetoric and activism that can be easily distributed as propaganda” such as Saturday’s marches in Indianapolis.
FOX59 reporters saw the marchers walk from the American Legion Mall to the Indianapolis Public Library and then back to the mall. The group dispersed by around 2:15 p.m.
Accompanied by drums and banners, the marchers could be heard yelling “America for Sale” and “Reclaim America,” which Wikipedia lists as the Patriot Front’s main motto.
The Indiana Capitol Police observed the march, FOX59 has been told, and the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department and Indiana State Police have been advised of the march and are making inquiries. IMPD officials said Saturday that the marchers were a part of a national group that is not active locally.
FOX59 has reached out to IMPD and ISP for more information regarding the march. | https://fox59.com/indiana-news/video-white-nationalist-hate-group-marches-in-downtown-indy/ | 2022-09-04T03:10:53Z | https://fox59.com/indiana-news/video-white-nationalist-hate-group-marches-in-downtown-indy/ | true |
The town with NINE banks in just 300 yards: Sunny Eastbourne shows how the high street can really flourish - with access to cash
- Eastbourne is the country's town with the most banks and building societies
- There is also a post office offering basic banking services
- The only bank in recent years to have deserted the town is TSB
The seaside town of Eastbourne is proud to boast that it is the sunniest resort in the UK – with an average of more than five hours of sunshine a day. But it has another claim to fame: it is the country's town with the most banks and building societies.
Standing in the heart of Eastbourne, my head spins at the sight of so many banks. Am I dreaming or have I momentarily gone back in time to an age when bank branches were an integral part of every town in the country?
No, my eyes are not deceiving me. At the top of the town's Terminus Road is a crossroads. A huge NatWest sits beside a Lloyds branch, and faces a Barclays, HSBC and a glass-fronted Metro branch.
Record: Eastbourne is the town with the most banks and building societies in the UK
A few doors down the same street are branches of Santander and Halifax, plus building societies Nationwide and Yorkshire, all crammed along a stretch of just 300 yards or so – about the same length as the town's famous pier.
There is also a post office offering basic banking services. While most towns are seeing banks disappear from their high streets at a rate of 50 a month, this East Sussex resort has the highest density of banks and building society branches of any town in the UK, with nine serving its population of 100,000. The only bank in recent years to have deserted the town is TSB.
Halfway along the town's pier, Helen Cooper is temporarily looking after The Candy Shop for her daughter Cara Huxley. Inside is all manner of seaside rock – not just traditional Eastbourne candy stamped all the way through, but rock tasting of pizza, vindaloo and gin and tonic.
The 53-year-old says: 'Although Eastbourne attracts young families to its beaches, we have an ageing population that is enticed by the lovely sunshine.
'They come here to retire and they like using bank branches and paying for items using cash.'
A quarter of the town's population is aged over 65.
Helen adds: 'These people are not interested in being encouraged to bank online or buy items using contactless payment. They prefer an old fashioned face-to-face banking service they can trust.'
Holidaymakers Derek and Margaret Myers are surprised by the number of bank branches in Eastbourne. The couple, both in their 70s, travelled down to the town from their South Yorkshire home in Barnsley.
Derek, a retired steel worker, says: 'I am a Yorkshire Bank customer. The staff in our local branch were lovely, but they always tried to convince us about the benefits of banking online.
'I told them it was like turkeys voting for Christmas. I was right. The branch shut a couple of years ago.'
He adds: 'It seems a lottery at the moment as to which banks stay open and which close – less measured on how much they are needed but what banks can get away with.
'Eastbourne is such a friendly, bustling place offering a great shop window for banks – with tourists and locals alike benefiting from easy access to their services. It proves how important banks are in ensuring a town thrives, rather than declines.' Local entertainer Peter Lambert is a dab hand at plate-spinning, knife-juggling and doing extraordinary things on a unicycle. Indeed, he's so good that seven years ago, he was a semi-finalist on ITV show Britain's Got Talent.
Peter lives in Hailsham, nine miles north of Eastbourne. He says: 'Eastbourne may be overloaded with banks, but we have been losing lots of nearby branches in recent years. Barclays quit my home town last year while NatWest and Santander shut in nearby Heathfield.'
It means Peter must come to Eastbourne when he wants to visit his bank (he was using the bank to deposit some cash).
The 40-year-old adds: 'Yes, it's great that Eastbourne has a healthy number of banks and building societies, but let's not forget that branches have been culled in their dozens from nearby towns.'
Derek French is a longstanding campaigner for banks to maintain a presence on high streets up and down the country. He backs the idea of shared branches – banking hubs – in communities where all bank branches have been axed.
Vital service: Derek and Margaret Myers, on holiday from Yorkshire, were amazed by the number of banks in Eastbourne
Although delighted that Eastbourne has hung on to so many of its banks, French says it highlights the crass approach that the banks adopt towards branch closures.
'It's a postcode lottery,' he says, 'when the starting point should be that every town has a bank or banking hub. There's no logic. Eastbourne has nine when other deserving towns such as its next door neighbour Peacehaven [see left] have none.'
French says the gauge used by banks to determine whether a branch should shut is the number of people that regularly visit.
Too few regulars and the branch is earmarked for closure. Yet in using this, French says no account is taken of the town's need for the bank to remain open.
He says: 'Banks manipulate branch usage figures to justify a closure. By defining a regular customer as someone who visits a branch every week for six months or more, it enables them to produce figures that suggest the branch isn't being used regularly enough. These statistics are utter nonsense.'
French is disappointed by the slow roll-out of banking hubs.
Last week, The Mail on Sunday revealed that not one of ten new banking hubs announced in the past nine months has yet to open.
Only two hubs set up before last December – in Cambuslang, near Glasgow and Rochford in Essex – have so far opened, but as pilots only.
French believes 50 banking hubs are urgently needed – with perhaps 400 nationwide to ensure all towns have a banking presence on the high street.
Thirteen new hubs will be announced this week. So far this year, 433 branches have been axed or will soon get the chop.
...but 16 miles away, not ONE major bank
The bustling resort of Peacehaven lies 16 miles west of Eastbourne. It shares the same glorious sunny coastline and chalk South Down cliffs – but, as far as the banks are concerned, it might as well be a leper colony.
Not one of the major banks has a presence in the town – with Barclays, NatWest and Halifax having all axed branches in recent years.
Only building society Nationwide has kept open its branch.
Although a fifth the size of Eastbourne, the town has a thriving high street including grocery stores, a butcher and bakery, restaurants – and no less than eight estate agents. Sales negotiator Mike Pearson, from estate agent Cubitt & West, says: 'A bank provides a good reason for people to come and visit the local shops.'
He adds: 'When it closes, the knock-on effect is negative for everyone.'
Resident Sarah Marx, a child psychotherapist, says: 'There is no rhyme or reason behind branch closures. Surely, the banks could have knocked their heads together and kept one branch open here in Peacehaven – even if it meant that one of the nine over in Eastbourne had to shut.
She adds: 'All towns need to have a bank, and none more so than Peacehaven.'

Adele will need to expand the size of her award cabinet as she has scooped a sting of gongs at the 2022 Creative Arts Emmy.
The 34-year-old chart topping star can add Emmy awards to her endlessly growing list of accolades - to sit nicely alongside her Oscar and multiple Grammy Awards.
On Saturday evening she was honoured in the USA for her special TV show Adele: One Night Only which aired via CBS last year as she prepared to unleash her chart topping album, 30.
Her show was up for five awards - and won all of them.
The on-off special – which saw the singer interact with fans and celebrities while singing a number of her songs - scooped the Variety Special (Pre-Recorded) award; beating Dave Chappelle for his Netflix show The Closer.
She also defeated One Last Time: An Evening with Tony Bennett, Norm Macdonald’s Netflix special, and the Harry Potter 20th anniversary special Return to Hogwarts.
Adele’s show also won Outstanding Sound Mixing for a Variety Series or Special and Outstanding Lighting Design/Lighting Direction.
Director Paul Dugdale was awarded Outstanding Directing for a Variety Special, and the show also nabbed Outstanding Lighting Design/Lighting Direction and Outstanding Technical Direction, Camerawork, Video Control for a Special.
Her wins give her a chance of winning a prestigious title of being an EGOT winner - if she were to perform on the theatrical stage and win a Tony Award as she now has her Emmy and already has a Golden Globe and Oscar.
She won her Golden Globe and Oscar in 2013 for her Bond theme Skyfall - with the specific award being the Best Original Song category at each award ceremony.
Only 17 performers have won an EGOT with Whoopi Goldberg, Audrey Hepburn and Andrew Lloyd Webber among those to hold the title.
More British stars won gongs on Saturday night – with James Corden scooping Outstanding Short Form Comedy, Drama or Variety Series for his Apple TV+ show Carpool Karaoke : The Series.
And The Beatles’ documentary series, The Beatles: Get Back, scooped a number of awards including Outstanding Directing for a Documentary/Nonfiction Program for director Peter Jackson.
While John Oliver’s late night talk show, Last Week Tonight, won Outstanding Writing for a Variety Series - the seventh time in a row that the show has scooped the award.
The main Emmy Awards will be held later this month when A List stars including Donald Glover, Jean Smart, Steve Martin, Reese Witherspoon and Colin Firth will battle it out to win a number of 'best actor' categories.
While shows including Better Call Saul, Euphoria and Ozark are up for awards.
The event is due to be held at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles on Sunday 12 September and is to be hosted by actor and comedian Kenan Thompson.

WACO, Texas — Blake Shapen completed 17 of 20 passes for 214 yards with two long touchdowns and had a nifty dive into the end zone for another score on the final play of the first half as 10th-ranked Baylor opened its season with a 69-10 victory over FCS team Albany on Saturday night.
Gavin Holmes, the sixth-year Bears wideout who missed all of last season because of a foot injury, returned a punt 72 yards for a score. Monaray Baldwin had two touchdowns, on a 47-yard catch for Baylor's first score before adding a 50-yard reverse run after halftime.
The reigning Big 12 champion Bears have a six-game winning streak, matching fourth-ranked Clemson for the longest active among FBS teams. The Tigers open their season Monday night against Georgia Tech.
Shapen’s 1-yard TD run gave Baylor a 35-7 halftime lead. Shapen swept to the right sideline and dived toward the end zone. He switched the ball from his right to left hand and was able to reach it out to hit the pylon before falling down out of bounds.
One of Shapen’s two starts while Gerry Bohanon was hurt last season came in the Big 12 championship game when he completed his first 17 passes and had three TDs. Shapen won the quarterback job in spring practice over incumbent starter Bohanon, who is now starting at South Florida.
The Bears led 21-0 with 5 1/2 minutes left in the first quarter when Holmes broke away from an initial tackler after fielding the punt, then weaved through other defenders toward the sideline and into the end zone. He started four games as a freshman in 2017, but was limited to one game the next two seasons after twice tearing the ACL in the same knee. He had 33 catches while starting all nine games during the pandemic-shortened 2020 season.
Albany sophomore Reese Poffenbarger threw a 17-yard TD to Julian Hicks while completing 13 of 26 passes. Poffenbarger, a transfer from Old Dominion, had never taken a college snap before coming out of a four-quarterback competition in fall camp to start the first game.
THE TAKEAWAY
Albany: The Great Danes are 3-13 overall since making the FCS playoffs during the 2019 season. They were 2-9 last fall, after going 1-3 in a spring season when the 2020 fall season was pushed back because of the pandemic.
Baylor: Third-year coach Dave Aranda got what he wanted with a crisper start this season. This game was never in question, and the Bears scored four touchdowns in the final 17 minutes after the starters were out of the game. That included two rushing TDs by freshman Richard Reese. Long before their Big 12 title and Sugar Bowl victory last season while winning a school-record 12 games, the Bears had to grind out a 29-20 win in their opener at Texas State, a Sun Belt team that went on to a losing record.
POLL IMPLICATIONS
The Bears did what they were supposed to do against a lower-division team, so they won’t move up because of that. But they will surely remain in the Top 10 going into a tougher game next week on the road.
UP NEXT
Albany: Plays its home opener Saturday against New Hampshire.
Baylor: At No. 25 BYU next Saturday. The Bears last year won 38-24 at home over the Cougars, who join the Big 12 next season.

TOKYO (AP) — Three bottlenose dolphins were released into the open sea in Indonesia Saturday after years of being confined for the amusement of tourists who would touch and swim with them.
As red and white Indonesian flags fluttered, underwater gates opened off the island of Bali to allow Johnny, Rocky and Rambo to swim free.
The trio were rescued three years ago from their tiny pool in a resort hotel to which they had been sold after spending years performing in a traveling circus.
They regained their health and strength at the Bali sanctuary , a floating pen in a bay that provided a gentler, more natural environment.
Lincoln O’Barry, who worked with the Indonesian government to set up the Umah Lumba Rehabilitation, Release and Retirement Center, said dolphins are wild animals that should live free.
“It was an incredibly emotional experience to see them go,” O’Barrry said.
The center was initiated in 2019 by the Bali Forestry Department and the Indonesian Ministry of Forestry. “Umah lumba” means “dolphin” in Indonesian.
For some time after the gates opened, the dolphins looked at the opening, uncertain of their next move. But after about an hour, they were on their way, sometimes jumping over choppy waves.
The Associated Press watched their release through an online livestream. O’Barry is documenting the release with drones and underwater footage for a film.
The Indonesian government supported the dolphins’ rescue, working with Dolphin Project, founded by Lincoln’s father Ric O’Barry, who was also at the release.
Ric O’Barry had been the dolphin trainer for the 1960s TV show “Flipper,” but later came to see the toll exacted on the animals. He has since devoted his life to returning dolphins to the wild.
Center workers clapped as the dolphins swam out. Wahyu Lestari, rehabilitation coordinator at the center, said she was a bit sad to see them go.
“I’m happy they are free, and they are going back to their family,” she said. “They should be in the wild because they are born in the wild.”
The freed dolphins will be monitored out at sea with GPS tracking for a year. They can return for visits to the sanctuary, although it’s unclear what they will do. They may join another pod, stay together, or go their separate ways.
Dolphins in captivity are carted from town to town, kept in chlorinated water, held in isolation or forced to interact with tourists, often leading to injuries.
Johnny, the oldest dolphin, had teeth that were worn down to below the gum line when he was rescued in 2019. Earlier this year, dentists provided him with dolphin-style dental crowns so that he can now clamp down on live fish.
Johnny was the first of the three dolphins to swim out to sea.
Ric and Lincoln O’Barry have spent half a century working on saving dolphins from captivity in locations from Brazil to South Korea and the U.S. Saturday’s release was their first in Indonesia.
The Indonesian government’s decision to rescue the dolphins followed a decade-long public education campaign that included billboards, artwork, school programs and a drive asking people not to buy tickets to dolphin shows.
A government minister was at hand to raise the gate at the sanctuary Saturday.
Lincoln O’Barry said the Indonesian sanctuary will continue to be used for other captive dolphins. Similar sanctuaries are in the works in North America and Europe, as more dolphin shows close. With virtual reality and other technology, appreciation of nature doesn’t have to involve a zoo or a dolphin show, he said.
Yet dolphin shows are still popular in China, the Middle East and Japan.
In Japan, the father and son have drawn attention to the dolphin hunt in the town of Taiji, documented in the 2010 Oscar-winning film “The Cove.” Every year, fishermen frighten and corral dolphins into a cove, capture some to sell to dolphin shows and kill others for food.
Whale and dolphin meat is considered a delicacy in Japanese culinary tradition. But Taiji has prompted protests by conservationists for years, including some Japanese.
The three dolphins released in Indonesia were soon miles (kilometers) away in the waters. But before their departure, they circled around the sanctuary.
“They turned back around and came back to us one more time, almost to say thank you and good-bye. And then they headed straight out to open ocean and disappeared,” Lincoln O’Barry said.
“Where they head next, we don’t know. But we wish them a good long life.”

Chaos in the skies: Negotiator helps man who stole plane safely ground it
Chaos in the skies: Negotiator helps man who stole plane safely ground it
TUPELO, Miss. (WCBI)- Investigators say Cory Patterson, 29, from Tupelo, is the man who was in the cockpit of an aircraft he wasn’t authorized to fly.
Patterson faces charges of Grand Larceny and making terroristic threats. Tupelo Police Chief John Quaka says Patterson will likely face federal charges. The FAA and Mississippi Homeland Security were part of the massive investigation.
FAA records show the aircraft was a Beechcraft C-90-A Turbrprop. Chief Quaka said Patterson had previous flight instruction but was not authorized to fly the aircraft. Patterson had access to the plane because of his job at the airport, Tupelo Aviation.
A flight negotiator helped convince him to land and helped guide Patterson bring the plane down.
Patterson made a post on social media saying “goodbye” to family. The aircraft came down in a field about 45 miles northwest of Tupelo around 10:15 a.m. Saturday.
The plane had substantial damage however, it was still in tact. | https://www.wcbi.com/tupelo-man-likely-faces-federal-charges-after-stealing-plane/ | 2022-09-04T03:41:13Z | https://www.wcbi.com/tupelo-man-likely-faces-federal-charges-after-stealing-plane/ | true |
Halloween makeup ideas you can do at home
The Addams Family’s deadpan daughter Wednesday is getting her own Netflix show, “Wednesday,” starring Jenna Ortega as the iconic goth teenager. With her famous braided pigtails, prim black costume and minimal makeup, the most difficult part of being Wednesday Addams for Halloween will be mastering her deadly stare. Wednesday isn’t the only popular Halloween look trending this year — here’s what you need to pull off her look and other Halloween favorites.
What you need for Halloween makeup looks
How do Wednesday Addams makeup
Wednesday’s look isn’t as dramatic as her equally iconic mother Morticia, but it’s high-impact and easy to create. Fill in your brows with black pomade or eyebrow pencil and use a mauve or gray eye shadow to accentuate your crease and under-eye area. Depending on how grim you want to go, you can wear either nude or black lipstick. Complete the look with a braided black costume wig.

Finish the look with a cat-eye wing and your favorite lipstick and you’re ready to prowl.

India is expected to become world’s third largest economy by 2029 due to the path taken by the country since 2014, SBI Ecowrap report said. The share of India’s GDP is now at 3.5 per cent, as against 2.6 per cent in 2014 and is likely to cross 4 per cent in 2027, the current share of Germany in global GDP.
India has undergone a large structural shift since 2014 and is now the 5th largest economy.
Interestingly, India had surpassed UK as the 5th largest economy as early as December 2021 itself and not recently as is being claimed.
“The path taken by India since 2014 reveals India is likely to get the tag of 3rd largest economy in 2029, a movement of 7 places upwards since 2014 when India was ranked 10th. India should surpass Germany in 2027 and most likely Japan by 2029 at the current rate of growth,” the report said.
“In coming days India is likely to be the beneficiary as China slows down in terms of new investment intentions,” the report added.
India’s GDP growth in Q1FY23 was 13.5 per cent. At this rate, India is likely to be the fastest growing economy in the current fiscal. Interestingly, even as estimates of India’s GDP growth rate for FY23 currently range from 6.7 per cent to 7.7 per cent, we firmly believe that it is immaterial.
“In a world that is ravaged by uncertainties, we believe 6 to 6.5 per cent growth is the new normal. Nevertheless, we make a passionate urge to update the IIP basket that is composed of a 2012 set of products and is hopelessly outdated.” | https://www.thestatesman.com/business/india-set-become-3rd-largest-economy-2029-1503107456.html | 2022-09-04T03:50:32Z | https://www.thestatesman.com/business/india-set-become-3rd-largest-economy-2029-1503107456.html | true |
TUSCALOOSA, Ala. (WIAT) — University of Alabama football hosted the Utah State Aggies in its first game of the season, the Crimson Tide came away with the win, 55-0.
Bryce Young finished 18-of-29 passing with 195 yards and five touchdowns. Georgia Tech transfer Jahmyr Gibbs rushed nine times for 93 yards in the win and the new look receiving core flashed promise. After taking a 41-0 lead into halftime, the Crimson Tide were able to give its young players a chance to play and gain experience.
Here’s what we learned from the Crimson Tide’s win:
The new receiving core showed promise
- Georgia transfer Jermaine Burton finished with five catches for 35 yards and two touchdowns. Junior receiver Traeshon Holden led all receivers with 70 yards and two touchdowns of his own. Freshman and Calera native Kobe Prentice showed promise in his first game with 60 yards on five catches. Prentice displayed speed and the ability to play all over the field.
Bryce Young is still really good at football
- The reigning Heisman trophy winner picked up where he left off last season, throwing for 195 yards and five touchdowns in the first half. He also did something fans wanted him to do more of last season; use his legs. He carried the ball four times in the first half for 96 yards including a 63-yard rush. He finished with five carries for 100 yards and a touchdown. He overthrew a few corner routes to his receivers, but with a new receiving core, timing is something that will come as they play more.
Solid start to the season for the defense
- It was a good day for the starting defense, not allowing the Aggies to score a point. Will Anderson finished with five total tackles and the defensive backs played with consistency.
Alabama will be on the road next week and they will take on the Texas Longhorns. Kick off is scheduled for 11 a.m. | https://www.cbs42.com/sports/alabama/alabama-defeats-utah-state-55-0/ | 2022-09-04T03:54:01Z | https://www.cbs42.com/sports/alabama/alabama-defeats-utah-state-55-0/ | true |
Alabama State defeats Miles College with quick start
MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) - Dematrius Davis and Myles Crawley threw touchdown passes in the first quarter and Alabama State held on to defeat Division II Miles College 21-13 on Saturday night.
Stanto Dunn scored late in the first quarter to make it 21-0 but couldn't muster any more against the Golden Bears.
Jayce Melock capped a two-play, 59-yard drive early in the first by catching a 14-yard slant pass to open the scoring, a play set up by a 45-yard completion on a wide receiver reverse pass.
Crawley threw a 26-yard touchdown pass to Darius Edmonds on his first throw of the game to make it 14-0.
Dunn capped the scoring for the Hornets (2-0), whose drives covered 59, 56 and 51 yards.
After a pair of field goals Miles got back in the game on a 15-yard pass from Jacob Millhouse to Collin Woods with 2:54 to go.
A turnover at the Miles 12-yard line with 1:10 left gave the Golden Bears, who were down to their third-string quarterback, a final chance but they couldn't get out of their end before time ran out during a multiple lateral razzle-dazzle play.

Tennis-Swiatek tames Davis to reach U.S. Open fourth round
By Rory Carroll
NEW YORK, Sept 3 (Reuters) - World number one Iga Swiatek dug her way out of a second set hole to notch a 6-3 6-4 win over American Lauren Davis and reach the fourth round of the U.S. Open for the second straight year.
The French Open champion came out sharp and fired an unreturnable serve out wide to capture the first set before falling behind 4-1 in the second as Davis raised her level.
Despite the deficit the feisty Pole stubbornly refused to drop her first set of the tournament, winning a tense 16-shot rally to set up break points at 4-4, which she converted when Davis whacked a backhand into the net.
In the end, Swiatek's superior serving and relentless defense carried the day against Davis, who plays a similar but less potent brand of tennis as Swiatek.
The 21-year-old top seed admitted she was not at her best during the two-hour night match on Louis Armstrong Stadium despite reeling off the match's final five games.
"I couldn't find my rhythm today," Swiatek said in an on-court interview.
"She played totally differently than any other player. She played very smart. I'm pretty happy at the end that I could put balls in.
"I'm trying to enjoy every match even when it's not perfect. Just trying to go for it. Trying to find solutions in every situation."
Swiatek went on a blistering 37-match winning streak earlier this year to claim titles in Roland Garros, Doha, Indian Wells, Miami and Rome but cooled off this summer, losing four matches during the hard-court season.
So far in New York she has put to rest any questions about her form and will be the heavy favourite when she takes on Germany's Jule Niemeier on Monday after the Wimbledon quarterfinalist upset China's Qinwen Zheng 6-4 7-6(5) to reach the Round of 16.

STANFORD, Calif. (AP) — Tanner McKee threw two touchdown passes to Michael Wilson and Stanford routed FCS Colgate 41-10 on Saturday in a season opener for both teams.
E.J. Smith, the son of former Dallas Cowboys star Emmitt Smith, had career bests with 118 yards rushing and five catches while running for two touchdowns to help the Cardinal snap a seven-game losing streak that dated to last season.
Stanford is 10-2 in home openers and 9-3 in season openers under coach David Shaw. Colgate marked the second opponent and third game against an FCS team in Shaw’s 11-year tenure.
On Stanford’s first play from scrimmage, Smith took the handoff, cut left and raced into the end zone for an 87-yard touchdown. That tied Nathaniel Peat for the fifth-longest touchdown run in school history. Smith’s previous career high was 54 yards rushing against Utah last season. Smith added another 37 yards receiving.
McKee was 22 of 27 for 308 yards passing and was relieved for Ari Patu at the start of the fourth quarter, who threw a 7-yard touchdown to true freshman Mudia Reuben.
John Humphreys had 88 yards receiving for Stanford, highlighted by a 53-yard grab down the Cardinal sideline. Wilson finished with five catches for 82 yards.
After Stanford muffed a punt that led to a Colgate touchdown, the Cardinal answered with three consecutive touchdown drives to end the first half.
Casey Filkins scored a 1-yard touchdown in the opening minute of the fourth quarter, capping a 5-play, 77 yard drive to extend the lead to 35-10.
The last time Stanford played an FCS opponent was UC Davis in 2018.
UP THE RANKS
Shaw moved into 10th place in wins by a Pac-12 Conference head coach. He came into Saturday tied with Washington State’s O.E. Hollingbery and Oregon State’s Mike Riley with 93 wins. He’s a win away from tying Arizona’s Dick Tomey for ninth.
INJURY REPORT
Stanford right guard Branson Bragg was out with an undisclosed injury and is questionable for USC next week. The senior started six games at right guard and three at right tackle last season.
THE TAKEAWAY
Colgate: The Raiders couldn’t capitalize on four of Stanford’s turnovers and missed a pair of field goals in the first quarter. Spencer Biscoe scored Colgate’s lone points on offense with a 25-yard field goal in the third. Colgate is 0-9 against FBS opponents since beating Buffalo 38-15 in 2003.
Stanford: The Cardinal struggled on special teams early. Stanford fumbled three times and muffed a punt deep in its own territory on the first play of the second quarter, which led to a touchdown recovery by Asauni Allen. The Stanford defense forced a turnover and the offense, led by McKee, was sharp after the special team’s mishap.
UP NEXT
Stanford hosts No. 14 Southern California on Saturday
Colgate visits Maine on Saturday.

Bukayo Saka is planning a low-key celebration to mark turning 21 this Sunday.
And the family and friends with whom he will surround himself on his landmark birthday needn't spend too much time worrying about what gift to get him, because what he really wants is not something their money can buy him.
"The perfect present would be a win over Manchester United," said Saka. "I'll just celebrate with my family and friends, nothing special. I'm looking forward to my 21st, for sure."
While Saka is coming of age off the field, he is humble enough to know there is still plenty more football knowledge to absorb and he is determined not to rest on his laurels.
"I still have a long way to go in terms of my development and a lot to learn," he added. "I've played some important matches and a lot of matches, which has accelerated my learning, but there's still a lot more to learn."
Another game against United will only add to his experience, and Saka said: "Beating United would be a very big thing because they are a quality team and in good form right now. If we can go there and win it will give us a lot of confidence going forward.
"It's a special rivalry. I've seen the games from before, with the big tackles and the fighting. In games like this, it has to be a balance between tactics and passion.
"Passion is really important - you can't let the other team have more than you because then things get difficult. We're in a good place right now. The next step for us is to try to bring some trophies, win more big games and play at the highest level."
Is Bukayo Saka Arsenal's best player? Have your say in the comments below.
Boss Mikel Arteta says Saka's emergence in recent years and, more lately, that of Gabriel Martinelli shows what an exciting place Arsenal is.
He said: "It's really rare what they're doing at a big, big club. But we have special talents, special people, and a club that is willing to promote talent and kids and players from our academy, and you can see the results of it."
Martinelli, in particular, has been a revelation this season.
Arteta added: "His consistency is down to him. When he wasn't playing he was all the time in my office — he was just a sad boy at the time — and every time showing me on the pitch how wrong I was.
"And the moment we agreed he was ready to do it, the way he has improved, the way he's helping the team, and the room for improvement he still has, it's phenomenal. So down to him.
"It's just a joy to watch the freedom and personality he plays with." | https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/bukayo-saka-sends-message-man-27900390 | 2022-09-04T04:35:01Z | https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/bukayo-saka-sends-message-man-27900390 | false |

Aussie F1 star Daniel Ricciardo insists he still 'has fire in the gut' and is not giving up on a grid sport despite weeks of turmoil and speculation
- Daniel Ricciardo says he still has what it takes to be an F1 winner in the future
- The Aussie will use the last eight events as an open application for a new team
- Ricciardo proved his ability last year, winning the Italian Grand Prix for McLaren
F1 star Daniel Ricciardo may be moving on from McLaren at season's end but the Australian insists his winning ways will return, saying the fire is still in his belly.
Ricciardo will finish up with McLaren in eight races, putting a pen through the final year of his contract.
The 33-year-old has raced 12 seasons in the Formula One and boasts a decorative career headlined by a massive Italian Grand Prix win in Monza last year.
Next week will be the one-year anniversary of Ricciardo's last win, where he famously told his McLaren crew 'I never left' on team radio.
Daniel Ricciardo pumps his fist after winning the 2021 Italian Grand Prix in grand style
Daniel Ricciardo publicly announces to his Instagram followers that he is separating from McLaren at season's end
Unfortunately for the West Australian he has struggled to perform for McLaren in his second season - becoming known as the second driver to Brit Lando Norris.
Ricciardo's driving future has been placed over a media cloud for months, but the eight-time podium champ says he was relieved McLaren made a decision.
'[It made] the act of driving a little sweeter,' Ricciardo told Code Sports.
The former Redbull driver has never been behind the wheel of a number one car, but has battled his way to two third place finishes in the drivers' championship (2014 and 2016), where he was in career best form.
The number three man says he still has much to prove in F1 and believes he is capable of shaking up standings in seasons to come, should he decide to sign elsewhere.
Ricciardo jokes around with teammate Lando Norris during the Dutch Grand Prix practice
'It’s a shame that … I haven’t been able to show my true self often enough in the last 18 months.
Winning is fun. Winning makes me happy ... that fire in my gut is still there. It hasn’t gone away.'
Ricciardo then moved to Renault on a two-year $50million deal, where he left winless and was picked up by the McLaren team in 2021.
He currently sits 13th in the driver standings and at this rate will log his worst year behind the wheel since 2013.
Ricciardo says he received many nice messages from fellow drivers such as Sergio Perez, who knows what it feels like to be in the hot seat.
Podium topper Daniel Ricciardo celebrates at Monaco Grand Prix in 2018
Next year is still up in the air for the down under star, who hasn't entertained any offers but says he will either take a short break in the sport or return with a new team.
Ricciardo has put on the helmet 224 times across his career and has been with a new team every two years since 2017.
The remaining F1 events will serve as an application for himself, kicking off on Sunday night at the Dutch Grand Prix, where he must make early moves to rise from grid 17. | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/formulaone/article-11177783/Australian-F1-star-Daniel-Ricciardo-insists-fire-gut-not-giving-up.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=1490 | 2022-09-04T04:57:16Z | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/formulaone/article-11177783/Australian-F1-star-Daniel-Ricciardo-insists-fire-gut-not-giving-up.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490&ito=1490 | true |

Today in History
Today is Sunday, Sept. 4, the 247th day of 2022. There are 118 days left in the year.
Today’s Highlight in History:
On Sept. 4, 2016, elevating the “saint of the gutters” to one of the Catholic Church’s highest honors, Pope Francis canonized Mother Teresa, praising her radical dedication to society’s outcasts and her courage in shaming world leaders for the “crimes of poverty they themselves created.”
On this date:
In 1781, Los Angeles was founded by Spanish settlers under the leadership of Governor Felipe de Neve.
In 1862, during the Civil War, Confederate forces led by Gen. Robert E. Lee began invading Maryland.
In 1888, George Eastman received a patent for his roll-film box camera, and registered his trademark: “Kodak.”
In 1944, during World War II, British troops liberated Antwerp, Belgium.
In 1957, Arkansas Gov. Orval Faubus used Arkansas National Guardsmen to prevent nine Black students from entering all-white Central High School in Little Rock.
In 1969, the Food and Drug Administration issued a report calling birth control pills “safe,” despite a slight risk of fatal blood-clotting disorders linked to the pills.
In 1972, U.S. swimmer Mark Spitz won a seventh gold medal at the Munich Olympics in the 400-meter medley relay.
In 1974, the United States established diplomatic relations with East Germany.
In 1999, Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak and Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat signed a breakthrough land-for-security agreement during a ceremony in Sharm El-Sheikh, Egypt.
In 2005, six days after Hurricane Katrina left a devastated New Orleans in chaos, police stormed the Danziger Bridge, shooting and killing two unarmed people and wounding four others. (Five New Orleans police officers were found guilty of civil rights violations in connection with the shootings, but a federal judge threw out those convictions in Sept. 2013 and ordered a new trial, concluding the case had been tainted by “grotesque prosecutorial misconduct.” The five officers entered guilty pleas in April 2016 under a plea agreement.)
In 2006, “Crocodile Hunter” Steve Irwin, 44, died after a stingray’s barb pierced his chest.
In 2018, Amazon became the second publicly-traded company to reach $1 trillion in market value, following closely behind Apple.
Ten years ago: Democrats opened their national convention in Charlotte, North Carolina, by ridiculing Republican Mitt Romney as a millionaire candidate who “quite simply doesn’t get it”; first lady Michelle Obama lovingly praised her husband as a devoted spouse and caring father at home and a “man we can trust” to revive the nation’s weak economy as president.
Five years ago: Texas emergency management officials said at least 60 deaths were attributed to Hurricane Harvey. (The death toll from the storm would reach 68 in Texas; damage in the state was estimated at $125 billion.) Colombia’s government and the country’s last remaining major rebel group signed a cease-fire ahead of a visit by Pope Francis. J.D. Martinez hit four home runs for the Arizona Diamondbacks, tying the major league record; he was the 18th player in major league history to accomplish the feat. (The Diamondbacks beat the Los Angeles Dodgers 13-0 for their 11th straight win.)
One year ago: A utility official warned that full restoration of electricity to some of the hardest-hit areas of Louisiana battered by Hurricane Ida could take until the end of the month. Taliban special forces in camouflage fired their weapons into the air, bringing an abrupt and frightening end to the latest protest march in the capital by Afghan women demanding equal rights from the new rulers. Willard Scott, the longtime weatherman on NBC’s “Today” show who was known for his self-deprecating humor and cheerful personality, died at 87.

Fiery Collins dismantles Cornet challenge to set up Sabalenka date
NEW YORK, Sept 4 (Reuters) - American Danielle Collins came out all guns blazing, hammering 52 winners past experienced Alize Cornet of France in a 6-4 7-6(9) victory on Saturday to book her spot in the fourth round of the U.S. Open for the first time.
In a classic contest between the contrasting styles of attack and defence, the 28-year-old Collins came out on top by firing rocket groundstrokes from both her forehand and backhand in front of an appreciative crowd in the day's final match at the Arthur Ashe Stadium.
Collins, who finished runner-up at the Australian Open this year, will next face sixth seed Aryna Sabalenka in a battle of hardhitters for a spot in the quarter-finals.
"This is one of my favourite slams. But didn't have my best results at this specific one," Collins, who beat two-time former champion Naomi Osaka in her opening round, said.
"To be able to kind of have my best results that I've had here has been great. Obviously want to try to take it to the next level and do the best I can. With the way I'm playing, I've just got to take it one match at a time."
Cornet, who was contesting her 63rd consecutive main draw at the majors and had defeated last year's champion Emma Raducanu in her opening round, knew she had to force Collins into making errors to have any chance of a victory.
But her American opponent made few mistakes during the one hour and 53 minute contest, while managing to hit more than three times the number of winners.
A single break of Cornet's serve in the fifth game was enough for Collins to take the opening set.
The American set up her first match point during a closely contested tiebreaker but was forced to save three set points before she could close out the match with a backhand winner at the net.
"I think if we look at Alize's record she battles in every single match," Collins said. "When she goes down she doesn't go down easy. I knew I would have to follow the ball in to the net, be patient, and win points two, three, four times."
Sabalenka spent two hours and 15 minutes on court in her previous round, during which she rallied from 5-1 down in the second set and saved two match points to beat Estonian Kaia Kanepi 2-6 7-6(8) 6-4.
It was a much easier outing on Saturday evening for the Belarusian on the final match on Grandstand court.
The former world number two, a semi-finalist at Flushing Meadows last year, steamrolled qualifier Clara Burel 6-0 6-2 in just 68 minutes, hitting 27 winners past the 21-year-old from France.

TAMPA, Fla. (AP) — BYU had to wait out a 2 1/2-hour weather delay to get its season started, then took just 11 seconds to score its first touchdown.
The No. 25 Cougars scored 38 straight points in the first half and cruised to a 50-21 victory over South Florida on Saturday night.
Wide receiver Puka Nucua scored on a 75-yard inside run on the first play from scrimmage of the game and added a second rushing touchdown. Christopher Brooks rushed for 135 yards and a touchdown as BYU dominated the line of scrimmage and ran the ball for 314 yards.
Jaren Hall was efficient, completing 25 of 32 passes for 261 yards and two touchdowns. He completed passes to 12 receivers.
South Florida was sluggish out the gate. Gerry Bohanon, a highly touted transfer from Baylor, had an interception returned for a touchdown by Max Tooley in the first quarter.
Wide receiver Xavier Weaver had five catches for 113 yards from the Bulls and Jimmy Horn scored on an 89-yard kickoff return to open the second half.
THE TAKEAWAY
BYU: The Cougars have loaded up their schedule with ranked opponents in hopes of getting some consideration for a New Year’s Six bowl six. It was important to get off to an impressive start Saturday and BYU came out the gate strong, taking a 28-0 lead in the first 11 minutes.
USF: Bulls coach Jeff Scott is 3-19 at USF. This year USF was expected to at least be in contention for a bowl going into the final stretch of the season. But with a tough slate of games in September and October, it’s unlikely that will be the case.
POLL IMPLICATIONS
BYU looked sharp from the opening snap and should gain some traction in the Top 25 with many tougher games coming up on the schedule.
UP NEXT
BYU: Host No. 11 Oregon on Sept. 10.
USF: Host Howard of the Championship Subdivision on Sept. 10. | https://www.ourmidland.com/sports/article/No-25-BYU-waits-out-delay-to-rout-South-Florida-17418343.php | 2022-09-04T05:36:21Z | https://www.ourmidland.com/sports/article/No-25-BYU-waits-out-delay-to-rout-South-Florida-17418343.php | false |

Urias sharp, Dodgers unload in rout of Padres
By DOUG PADILLA
Associated Press
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Julio Urias continued to solidify his spot atop the Dodgers’ rotation while Mookie Betts hit one of Los Angeles’ four home runs in a 12-1 victory over the San Diego Padres on Saturday night that ended their three-game losing streak.
Trea Turner, Justin Turner and Will Smith also homered as the Dodgers ended their first skid of three games since they were swept by San Francisco in June. Betts’ home run was his career-best 33rd.
Manny Machado homered for the Padres, who had won four in a row.
Urias (15-7) gave up just one run on two hits over six innings to earn the win for the 11th time in his last 13 starts to go along with a loss and a no-decision. In the process, he has moved atop a talented rotation that has been forced to make adjustments.
Staff ace Walker Buehler is out for the season after Tommy John surgery, Clayton Kershaw is just returning from his second injured list stint and All-Star Tony Gonsolin is on the IL with a forearm strain.
A 20-game winner from a season ago, Dodgers manager Dave Roberts has expressed comfort in having Urias head the staff into October.
“We’re putting ourselves in the situation where we can set the (playoff) rotation but he’s a top end guy,” Roberts said. “Every year he’s gotten better and has earned that potential opportunity.”
The Dodgers staked Urias to an early lead against Sean Manaea (7-8). Betts led off the bottom of the first with a triple on a ball that was misplayed by Padres right fielder Juan Soto. Turner followed with his 19th homer.
Los Angeles made it 3-0 in the third on Smith’s RBI double.
Betts connected for a three-run homer in the fourth. It gave him one more home run than he had in his American League MVP season of 2018.
“It’s been an up-and-down year and I don’t know how I got to where I am,” Betts said about his home run total. “I’m just enjoying it.”
Manaea gave up eight runs and nine hits over 4 1/3 innings while allowing three home runs. He has a 15.63 ERA in three starts against the Dodgers this season and has given up a combined 14 runs in consecutive starts against the Kansas City Royals and Dodgers.
Padres manager Bob Melvin was asked if a change in roles could be upcoming for Manaea down the stretch.
“I don’t make decisions like that after games,” Melvin said. “He has performed really well for us. A couple of outings (ago) he had a real good outing. He hasn’t (done it) for a stretch here, but my confidence in him has not waned.”
The Dodgers built the lead to 8-0 in the fifth on a two-run homer by Justin Turner, his 10th.
Machado hit a solo home run for the Padres in the sixth, his 26th. Los Angeles answered with four more in the bottom half on Freddie Freeman’s RBI single and a three-run homer from Smith, his 20th.
Dodgers infielder Hanser Alberto made his eighth appearance on the mound this season, recording his first career strikeout in the ninth when he fanned Josh Bell. He also hit a triple in the sixth inning.
“Having Hanser man, he’s that catalyst in the clubhouse that keeps us all loose, keeps us having fun,” Betts said. “He’s always dancing, always making us smile. He’s just a very important person to have.”
WELCOME BACK
Dodgers RHP Blake Treinen pitched a perfect seventh inning in his return to the club. Treinen had just three prior outings this season and had not pitched since April 14 because of a partial tear in the front of his shoulder capsule.
Treinen, who has served as the Dodgers setup man in recent seasons, was experiencing a dip in velocity during a recent rehab outing but hit 98 mph on the radar gun with one of his five pitches against the Padres.
“I think he was excited to get that first one under his belt after being down for so long,” Roberts said. “To have it clean, see some 98 and see soft contact, that’s what he does.”
TRAINERS ROOM
Padres: INF Brandon Drury was not in the starting lineup one day after he was hit by a pitch in the flap that extends over his face from his helmet. While Drury had a bruise on the side of his face, he was not seriously injured.
Dodgers: LHP David Price is expected to go in the injured list before Sunday’s game, Roberts said, with left-wrist inflammation. … INF/OF Gavin Lux received a cortisone shot to help with neck and upper back discomfort, leaving him unavailable for the remainder of the series. … RHPs Gonsolin (forearm) and Brusdar Graterol (elbow) had MRIs that came back clean. Neither pitcher has a timetable for a return.
UP NEXT
Padres: RHP Mike Clevinger (5-5, 3.59 ERA) gave up five runs at Los Angeles in a start last month.
Dodgers: LHP Caleb Ferguson (1-0, 1.85) will serve as the opener with RHP Ryan Pepiot (2-0, 4.02) expected to be called up and pitch the bulk of the innings.

GAINESVILLE, Fla. (AP) — Standing in the tunnel and waiting to run into the raucous Swamp for the first time, Florida coach Billy Napier turned to an assistant and summed up the moment.
“Can you believe they pay us to do this?” he said.
It seemed like money well spent after the Gators delivered their biggest season-opening victory in more than 50 years.
Anthony Richardson ran for three scores in his second career start, including a 2-yard scamper with 1:25 remaining, and Florida upset seventh-ranked Utah 29-26 on Saturday night to get the Napier era off to a rousing start.
Richardson was the best player on the field most of the night. He really showed up down the stretch, although fifth-year linebacker Amari Burney was the one who sealed the victory for the rebuilding Gators. Burney intercepted Cam Rising’s second-down pass into the end zone with 17 seconds remaining.
“Someone had to make a play, It happened to be me,” Burney said.
That set off a wild celebration for many of the 90,799 in attendance — the 10th most at home in school history. Richardson took a knee from there, and the Gators rushed the field to revel in their 33rd consecutive victory in home season openers. That’s the longest current streak in the nation.
“This group’s got a lot of fight in them,” said Napier, who replaced fired coach Dan Mullen in November. “They’ve got a little bit different edge to them.”
Richardson ran 11 times for 106 yards and was never stopped for a loss. He completed 17 of 24 passes for 168 yards and played turnover-free football.
“He’s going to get his (NFL payday),” Utah coach Kyle Whittingham said. “He’s 6-4, 230 and runs like a 4.3. He’s a terrific player.”
Richardson’s best play? He had an electrifying 2-point conversion early in the fourth quarter that put the Gators up 22-19. He juked former Florida teammate Mohamoud Diabate with a pump fake and then sprinted right by fellow Utah linebacker Lander Barton before throwing a strike to Ja’Quavion Fraziers in the back of the end zone.
Utah answered and briefly took the lead, but Richardson responded. He moved the chains with a third-down throw and again with a fourth-down run, both of which set up his game winner.
“Just trying to make something happen. Glad it worked,” Richardson said.
Rising moved the Utes in position to steal one on the road for a team that entered the season with its highest preseason ranking in school history. But Rising’s last pass was his most important — or costly — of the night.
“It wasn’t Cam’s best throw,” Whittingham said. “I’m sure he’d like that back, but he played great.”
Rising completed 22 of 32 passes for 216 yards, with a touchdown and the turnover. He also ran for 91 more.
Tavion Thomas had 115 yards rushing and a score for Utah, which caught a break when it rained about two hours before kickoff and erased whatever advantage Florida had with sweltering summer heat and humidity.
GAME CHANGERS
The difference was Florida’s success and Utah’s failure in the red zone. The Gators scored touchdowns on all three trips into the 20-yard line. The Utes had the late turnover and were stuffed on consecutive downs at the goal line to open the third quarter.
Utah also settled for two first-half field goals, one from 43 yards and another from 31.
THE TAKEAWAY
Utah: The defending Pac-12 champions showed resiliency on the road, battling back to take the lead in the fourth quarter. Despite the loss, the Utes have enough talent and experience to be a factor in the chase for the College Football Playoff.
Florida: The Gators don’t look like they’ll in rebuilding mode for long. Napier’s recruiting has jumped in the last two months and a game like this could do wonders to help him close the gap on Southeastern Conference heavyweights Alabama and Georgia.
“There’s a lot of good energy in the locker room right now,” Richardson said.
MILLION DOLLAR HANDSHAKE
Napier showed a bit of modern-day coaching nuance in the first half when he left his team during a timeout to offer millionaire booster Hugh Hathcock a handshake and a partial hug. Hathcock is one of the program’s top donors.
Hathcock, who owns Velocity Automotive Solutions, gave the University Athletic Association a $12.6 million gift in April. Some of the money will be used to renovate Florida’s aging basketball practice facility and some is sure to help the football program. The Gators plan to name a suite tower at Ben Hill Griffin Stadium and its basketball complex after Hathcock.
UP NEXT
Utah: hosts Southern Utah next Saturday. The in-state teams played once previously, with the Utes winning 24-0 in 2016.
Florida: continues its tough opening stretch when it hosts No. 20 Kentucky to being SEC play next Saturday night.

A library where Rosa Parks, John Lewis and other civil rights leaders forged strategies that would change the world is mired in controversy over who gets to tell its story.
On one side are preservationists who want to turn the Highlander Folk School library into a historic site. On the other, political organizers say Highlander never stopped pursuing social justice and should recover the building as a stolen part of its legacy.
Enraged by race-mixing at the Highlander Folk School in the 1950s, Tennessee officials confiscated the property and auctioned it off in pieces in a vain attempt at stifling the civil rights movement. The library is one of the few remaining campus buildings.
But Highlander as an institution never really closed — it just moved locations. It lives on today as the Highlander Research and Education Center, whose leaders are rallying opposition to listing the library in the National Register of Historic Places, saying they were frozen out of the process.
David Currey, a board member at the Tennessee Preservation Trust, has managed the library’s restoration since the trust bought the site in 2014, saving it from redevelopment. He said his goal has always been to preserve the site so that visitors can learn about the momentous events that happened there in the first half of the 20th Century. There would be few books or movies if stories could only be told by those directly involved, he said, and “Nobody owns the past.”
“It’s a myth that they are best suited to tell our history,” said Ash-Lee Woodard Henderson, Highlander’s first Black co-director. “People who made that history are still alive.”
A letter Highlander sent to the historic registry says the Trust is not fit to serve as stewards, stoking racial tension over a place that promoted a shared struggle for interracial harmony.
“Approving the nomination of the Highlander Folk School Library in its current form will allow an elite, white-led institution to coopt and control the historical narrative of a site most significant for its work with Black, multiracial, poor and working-class communities,” states the letter, which also accuses trust members of having glorified the Confederacy.
Currey, who is white, frames the issue much differently. He says the trust stepped in to preserve the property when no one else would, and plans to celebrate Highlander’s past accomplishments.
“Our cause from the start has been an honorable endeavor to recognize and pay tribute to the history and legacy of the early 20th century’s social justice movements in Tennessee, including labor struggles and Civil Rights, and its leaders,” Currey wrote in an email to the AP.
Founded in the 1930s as a center for union organizing, the school in Monteagle, Tenn., counted first lady Eleanor Roosevelt among its early supporters. Protest music was integral to its work, with Woody Guthrie leading singalongs to inspire future demonstrations, and Pete Seeger workshopping “We Shall Overcome” into an anthem sung by activists ever since.
Highlander’s co-founder and longtime leader, Myles Horton, a white man, created a space almost unique in the Jim Crow South, where activists white and Black could build and strengthen alliances.
Parks attended a Highlander workshop a few months before refusing to move to the back of a segregated city bus in Montgomery, Alabama. “It was one of the few times in my life up to that point when I did not feel hostility from white people,” she wrote in her autobiography.
Lewis had a similar experience, long before he became a civil rights icon and congressman. Highlander “was the first time in my life that I saw black people and white people not just sitting down together at long tables for shared meals, but also cleaning up together afterward, doing the dishes together, gathering together late into the night in deep discussion,” he wrote in a memoir.
The school’s success made it a target — labeled communist, investigated by the FBI and raided by the state of Tennessee, which eventually revoked its charter. Original buildings were destroyed. The library was converted to a single-family home.
But Highlander didn’t disappear — it just moved three hours northeast to New Market, Tenn., near Knoxville.
“The property was stolen from us because it was bringing Black and white people together to preserve democracy,” Henderson said. “The land should be repatriated, back to the Highlander Folk School, which is now the Highlander Research and Education Center.”
The trust has spent seven years restoring the library to its original form. Local Grundy County donors contributed most of the funding, but Currey said he’s also spent thousands of his own dollars. His vision is to spin off a nonprofit, separate from the trust, that would own and operate the library as both a historic site and community resource, and Highlander could run a program explaining its ongoing justice and education work.
Henderson said she’s grateful the trust stepped in when the center couldn’t afford to, but she doesn’t see the old Folk School as separate from Highlander now, which is celebrating 90 years of organizing with a homecoming later this month. She said the center recently offered to buy the library from the trust, but got no definitive answer.
“If there’s going to be a transfer, why wouldn’t it be to Highlander?” Co-director Allyn Maxfield-Steele asked. If Highlander controlled the building, it would develop a plan for its use together with “folks on the ground in Grundy County,” he said.
Currey still hopes the trust and center can work together to promote the legacy of a building both organizations see as incredibly important.
Getting listed in the National Registry would open up new sources of funding in a state that doesn’t provide tax incentives for historic preservation, Currey said. He worries that the controversy over Highlander will make preservationists less likely to take on a similar project in the future.
“It’s already so difficult in Tennessee to save some of our historic resources,” Currey said. “This may be one of the most high-profile civil rights sites — as John Lewis told me — in the nation.” | https://www.cbs42.com/news/national/ap-who-gets-to-tell-the-story-of-a-historic-civil-rights-site/ | 2022-09-04T06:55:50Z | https://www.cbs42.com/news/national/ap-who-gets-to-tell-the-story-of-a-historic-civil-rights-site/ | true |
PULLMAN — Transfer quarterback Cameron Ward threw for 215 yards and three touchdowns Saturday as Washington State beat scrappy Idaho 24-17 in a season opener to win its 10th consecutive game in a long-running series between two schools whose campuses are located just eight miles apart.
Ward completed 25 of 40 passes for Washington State, a Pac-12 team which leads the Battle of the Palouse series 72-17-3. But the Cougars had trouble putting away Idaho, an FCS team from the Big Sky Conference.
It was not until Ward threw a touchdown pass to Jaylen Jenkins with 10:33 left in the fourth quarter, putting Washington State up 24-10, that the Cougars appeared to take control.
But Idaho freshman quarterback Gevani McCoy replied with a 23-yard touchdown pass to Jordan Dwyer with 6:05 left in the game, cutting the WSU lead to 24-17.
Washington State’s ensuing drive ate up the clock, but Dean Janikowski missed a 23-yard field-goal attempt wide left with 53 seconds left.
McCoy led Idaho down the field, but was intercepted at the goal line by Daiyan Henley to end the threat.
McCoy completed 21 of 32 passes for 212 yards and was intercepted twice for Idaho, which was outgained 358 yards to 269 yards in the game.
Idaho last beat the Cougars in 2000.
Ward, who transferred from FCS Incarnate Word, last year led the FCS in touchdown passes (47) and finished third in passing yardage (4,648). His arrival prompted former starter Jayden de Laura to transfer to Arizona.
Washington State fumbled the ball away on its first possession and receiver Donovan Ollie fumbled after catching a pass on the Cougars’ second possession. Marcus Harris scooped up the ball and ran 45 yards for a touchdown and a 7-0 Idaho lead.
Ricardo Chavez kicked a 27-yard field goal for a 10-0 Idaho lead late in the first quarter.
Janikowski missed a 51-yard field goal for Washington State early in the second quarter.
Ward marched the Cougars 80 yards on nine plays late in the second quarter, capped by a 3-yard touchdown pass to Renard Bell to cut Idaho’s lead to 10-7. Bell missed all of last season with an injury.
McCoy was intercepted at midfield by defensive back Chau Smith-Wade on the next series. But the Cougars stalled and had to settle for Janikowski’s 34-yard field goal that tied the score at 10-10 at halftime.
Idaho took the opening drive of the second half, but turned the ball over on downs. Ward marched Washington State down the field and hit De’Zhaun Stribling with a 13-yard touchdown pass for the Cougars’ first lead at 17-10.
THE TAKEAWAY
Washington State: Jake Dickert got a tough win as he began his first full season as the Cougars’ coach. He went 3-3 with a Sun Bowl berth last season as interim coach after Nick Rolovich was fired for refusing to get a COVID-19 vaccine.
Idaho: Jason Eck was coaching his first game at Idaho, replacing the fired Paul Petrino, and gave Washington State a stiffer challenge than expected. Washington State paid a $575,000 guarantee to Idaho, a former FBS program that dropped to FCS five years ago. | https://www.seattletimes.com/sports/wsu-cougar-football/wsu-cougars-survive-upset-scare-from-idaho-in-24-17-opening-win/?utm_source=RSS&utm_medium=Referral&utm_campaign=RSS_business | 2022-09-04T06:58:32Z | https://www.seattletimes.com/sports/wsu-cougar-football/wsu-cougars-survive-upset-scare-from-idaho-in-24-17-opening-win/?utm_source=RSS&utm_medium=Referral&utm_campaign=RSS_business | true |
MLB roundup: Dylan Cease nearly throws no-hitter for ChiSox
Right-hander Dylan Cease pitched a one-hit shutout, falling one out short of a no-hitter, and Elvis Andrus launched a grand slam as the host Chicago White Sox routed the Minnesota Twins 13-0 on Saturday night.
Cease narrowly missed the 21st no-hitter in club history, allowing a single to American League batting leader Luis Arraez with two outs in the ninth. Also the major league leader in walks, Cease (13-6) issued free passes to Jake Cave leading off the third inning and Gilberto Celestino in the sixth in addition to striking out seven.
The White Sox scored four runs in the first inning against Twins starter Tyler Mahle, three on a home run by Eloy Jimenez to right-center field. White Sox rookie Romy Gonzalez connected for a three-run home run in the fourth, his first homer in the majors.
Mahle recovered to retire six of the next seven batters he faced to close an abbreviated night. Making his first appearance since landing on the injured list with right shoulder inflammation, Mahle (6-8) allowed four runs and five hits in two innings while throwing 37 pitches. He left the game after aggravating the injury.
Giants 5, Phillies 4
Joc Pederson continued his RBI rampage with three more and San Francisco made it two straight wins over visiting Philadelphia.
After two lead changes and four ties, the Giants scored what proved to be the difference-making run when Pederson drew a two-out, bases-loaded walk from Brad Hand (3-2) for a 5-4 lead in the sixth.
Bryson Stott and Jean Segura had big games for the Phillies. Stott had a homer, two singles and three runs, while Segura slashed two doubles, a single and notched two RBIs.
Red Sox 5, Rangers 3
Brayan Bello pitched six shutout innings and Rafael Devers drove in two runs as Boston held on to beat visiting Texas.
Bello (1-4) allowed just three hits and a walk while striking out five en route to his first career major league win, leading Boston to its fourth consecutive triumph.
Devers, Xander Bogaerts and Trevor Story all went 2-for-4. Bogaerts scored twice, while Story hit two doubles to reach 20 on the season. Devers hit a run-scoring double in the first inning to ignite Boston's offense, reaching base for a seventh straight plate appearance since breaking a career-long 0-for-24 skid on Thursday.
Rays 2, Yankees 1
Corey Kluber pitched seven stellar innings and host Tampa Bay moved within four games of slumping New York in the American League East with a victory.
The Rays won their fifth straight and are their closest to the lead since May 11. Tampa Bay improved to 16-4 since Aug. 13. Yandy Diaz hit a two-run single off New York fill-in starter Clarke Schmidt (5-4) as the Rays beat the Yankees for the fourth time in the past five meetings. New York is 1-6 in its past seven games.
Aaron Judge hit his major-league-leading 52nd homer leading off the ninth, matching his career high from his rookie season in 2017. Schmidt allowed two runs on four hits in 4 1/3 innings. He struck out two and walked none.
Royals 12, Tigers 2
Four Kansas City players hit home runs in their win in Detroit.
MJ Melendez went 2-for-4 with a home run and two RBIs for Kansas City. Nick Pratto went 2-for-4 with a home run, Bobby Witt Jr. had a three-run home run, Kyle Isbel hit a grand slam and Nick Eaton went 4-for-5 with two RBIs to lead the Royals' 15-hit attack.
Jonathan Heasley (3-7) pitched seven innings to earn the win, allowing two runs and eight hits.
Nationals 7, Mets 1
Luis Garcia had four hits, including a home run, and Lane Thomas homered as part of his three-hit night to lead Washington past host New York.
Patrick Corbin, who leads the majors in losses, had one of his best outings of the season. The left-hander (6-17) allowed just a run on three hits with five strikeouts and a walk in seven innings before being relieved by Carl Edwards Jr. in the bottom of the eighth.
Mets starter Max Scherzer didn't factor in the decision after allowing a run on three hits with five strikeouts and a walk in five innings before being relieved by Tommy Hunter. Scherzer was seeking to join Justin Verlander (242 wins) and Zack Greinke (223) as the lone active pitchers with at least 200 victories.
Blue Jays 4, Pirates 1
Bo Bichette hit a tiebreaking three-run double in the seventh inning to lift visiting Toronto to a win over Pittsburgh.
The Blue Jays have won 11 of 16 as they fight for one of the final playoff spots in the American League. Toronto went with a bullpen game, with Trevor Richards opening. He pitched two scoreless innings, giving up one hit and no walks, with three strikeouts. Yimi Garcia (4-4) pitched 1 2/3 scoreless innings, and Jordan Romano pitched the ninth for his 29th save.
Oneil Cruz hit an RBI triple for the Pirates, who have lost three straight and 17 of 21. Pittsburgh starter Roansy Contreras allowed one run and four hits in six innings, with five strikeouts and two walks, while Duane Underwood Jr. (1-4) took the loss.
Cardinals 8, Cubs 4
Yadier Molina hit a three-run double and Paul Goldschmidt laced a two-run homer as St. Louis rallied past visiting Chicago.
Tommy Edman and Tyler O'Neill hit solo homers for the National League Central-leading Cardinals, who won for the sixth time in seven games. They improved to 44-22 at home and 37-20 within their division.
Cardinals starting pitcher Adam Wainwright (10-9) allowed four runs on nine hits and two walks in five innings. Wainwright and Molina made their 323rd career start as battery mates, one behind Bill Freehan and Mickey Lolich of the Detroit Tigers for most in baseball history.
Orioles 8, Athletics 1
Ryan Mountcastle hit a pair of two-run homers and Baltimore defeated visiting Oakland for its fourth straight win.
Cedric Mullins, Anthony Santander and Adley Rutschman also went deep as the Orioles matched their season high with five home runs.
Baltimore starter Austin Voth was lifted after 70 pitches with the bases loaded and one out in the fourth, and Keegan Akin (3-1) worked two scoreless innings for the win.
Mariners 4, Guardians 0
Robbie Ray threw six shutout innings to help visiting Seattle to a win over Cleveland.
Ray (12-8) allowed six hits, struck out three and didn't walk a batter in the middle game of the three-game series. It was the reigning AL Cy Young winner's second consecutive appearance against the Guardians, having blanked them on three hits over seven innings in a 4-0 win on Aug. 28.
Ty France homered for the Mariners, who have won six in a row to tighten their grip on an AL wild-card spot. Steven Kwan and Owen Miller had two hits each for the Guardians, who have combined for one run while losing their past four games but remain a game ahead of the Minnesota Twins for first place in the AL Central.
Braves 2, Marlins 1
Robbie Grossman drew a walk-off walk and Austin Riley homered for his fourth straight game, leading Atlanta past visiting Miami.
Working against reliever Steven Okert (5-2) in the ninth inning, Matt Olson singled and reached third on Michael Harris II's one-out double. After Vaughn Grissom was intentionally walked and Travis d'Arnaud lined out, Grossman took a 3-1 pitch low.
Miami's Edward Cabrera allowed just four hits and one run while striking out seven batters in five innings. However, he walked three batters, driving up his pitch count (98) and forcing his early exit.
Dodgers 12, Padres 1
Mookie Betts set his career high for home runs in a season and Julio Urias went six strong innings as Los Angeles earned a victory over visiting San Diego to end a three-game losing streak.
Trea Turner, Justin Turner and Will Smith also hit home runs as the Dodgers improved to 24-8 since July 31 despite their recent skid.
Manny Machado hit a home run for the Padres, while starter Sean Manaea (7-8) was roughed up for eight runs on nine hits and three home runs over 4 1/3 innings. San Diego saw its four-game winning streak come to an end.
Brewers 8, Diamondbacks 6 (10 innings)
Tyrone Taylor hit a pair of homers -- including a two-run blast in the top of the 10th inning -- as Milwaukee rallied to beat host Arizona.
After dropping the first two games of the four-game set, Milwaukee trailed 6-5 with one out in the ninth inning before pinch hitter Rowdy Tellez deposited a solo homer into the center field seats against Ian Kennedy.
Taylor had three hits and scored three runs, and he capped the comeback with his leadoff homer in the 10th against Joe Mantiply (2-5), scoring automatic runner Esteury Ruiz. Devin Williams (6-3) pitched a scoreless ninth inning for the win, and Taylor Rogers picked up his 30th save.
Angels 2, Astros 1 (12 innings)
Matt Duffy's two-out single in the bottom of the 12th inning drove home Taylor Ward from second base to lift Los Angeles over Houston in Anaheim, Calif.
Duffy hit a full-count pitch from Astros reliever Seth Martinez into shallow right-center, where center fielder Mauricio Dubon made a diving attempt to catch the ball. A replay review confirmed that Dubon short-hopped the ball, giving the Angels the win.
Angels reliever Ryan Tepera (3-2) pitched a scoreless 12th inning to get the victory over Will Smith (0-2). Tepera and the Angels escaped a jam in the top of the 12th. The Astros had runners on the corners with no outs when they hit into a double play, but the runner was unable to score from third, and the next batter was retired to end the threat.

Getting kids interested in farming is important work, and the Comanche County Fair is one of the best places to get the process started.
Beginning Tuesday, the Comanche County Fair will bring students from local 4-H chapters, FFA and other local farmers together to show cattle, sell food and, for some, show off their skills working on the farm.
The fair will open Tuesday with Farm Hand Olympics, a popular event where kids compete to see who can do farm work the fastest.
Richard Pool, the president of the board that plans for the fair, said that kids will demonstrate a range of different skills.
"They do relay stuff, with all kinds of jobs you might do on a farm," Pool said. "Goat herding, hay bail stacking, things like that. Kids from all over will be competing."
From Wednesday on, different animals will be shown and sold each day, from cows and pigs to sheep and goats, and even some smaller animals like rabbits, will all have their time to shine.
Some very young kids will get a chance to show animals too, showing calves on Friday evening.
"That's always a cute event," Pool said. "People really enjoy it."
Saturday will include some food judging events, including a pie contest and a salsa contest.
Cora Sullivan, a junior at MacArthur High School and a student in MacArthur FFA and 4-H, will show dairy and beef cows on separate days during the fair. She said that she's especially happy to keep up the tradition of farming and showing animals as she sees fewer and fewer people doing it every year.
"I enjoy being able to show at the county fair," Sullivan said. "It's an important thing, and not a lot of people do it anymore."
Sullivan said that there's a range of reasons why people don't participate in cattle shows. Most recently, the biggest problem she's seeing is inflation.
"With inflation, it's just really expensive to get into raising animals right now," Sullivan said. "For example, with beef cattle, it's hard to get a butcher date, and we have to schedule with the butchers 60 days in advance sometimes, and it's expensive to get them butchered."
However, the difficulty hasn't caused Sullivan to waver in her devotion to showing animals. During the Saddle and Sirloin County Cattle Show earlier this year, Sullivan and her family helped to organize events, a task that meant long hours working for her and her dad.
"I would stay there to work with him, and we didn't leave until midnight or 1 a.m., just because we were making sure everything was taken care of," Sullivan said.
Sullivan said she's excited to show at this year's fair, and get some of her younger cattle that aren't used to being shown used to being around people.
"Some of them have never been shown before, so it'll be a good opportunity to get them ready for it," Sullivan said.
Sullivan said she hopes more young people will develop an interest in showing cattle, and have their livestock featured in future county fairs.
"It's important for people to get involved in this, and keep it alive," Sullivan said. | https://www.swoknews.com/news/county-fair-coming-to-comanche-county-fairgrounds/article_9f784d33-62f7-520c-a980-5920d3549c00.html | 2022-09-04T07:06:26Z | https://www.swoknews.com/news/county-fair-coming-to-comanche-county-fairgrounds/article_9f784d33-62f7-520c-a980-5920d3549c00.html | true |
Not all bowlers are able to pick right up where they left off prior to the summer break, as was appar-ent in some of the scores, or lack thereof, coming across the bowling news desk this week.
While some were left scratching their head, others were found scoring as if they never missed a beat.
Trust me though the lost, dazed and confused scenario was much more prominent.
Richard Jacoby never misses a chance to bowl so you know he was on the summer scene but his first day of the 2022/2023 season will be one to shoot for all year long as he ripped off games of 245, 268 and 268 for a 781 to set the pace in the Goodtimes league.
The Goodtimes showed Kenny Ratke with second best in the Thursday afternoon senior setting at Thunderbird Lanes, scoring 221, 223 and 268 for a 712.
Jim Bomboy was next on the honor roll with a big 767 to kick off the Suburban league at Twin Oaks.
Bomboy, whose only bowling this summer was at Nationals as far as I am aware of, roll 213, 265 and a front ten 289 to kick off the Suburban league season at Twin Oaks with a big 767 series.
So there you have it, basically a 50/50 chance of continuing to bowl well regardless of whether you both all year long or take a few months off.
The hard part is being able to accept not getting your average for a few weeks if things don’t work out so well after your time away. Bowling can be a very humbling sport.
Continuing with our high rollers list, week two of the TNT league showed Mark Hill with the high series of 740 on games of 277, 227 and 236, followed by Kellan Hill with 728 that went 224, 258 and 246 and James Ray wrapping up the top three with games of 223, 268 and 234 for a 725.
Back to the Suburban league we find Tracy Price in the groove with 203, 236 and 275 for a 714 and Richard Brown rolled out games of 243, 183 and 278 for a 704.
Lisa Tipton-Gass put the ladies high series 656 on the charts in the Suburban setting with games of 185, 245 and 226 and Selena Rittenhouse put a string together in the Entertainers league to post a 267 closer for the ladies high game of the week.
Youth news
Mikey York had the youth high series of 566 from last Saturday’s Legends league at Thunderbird Lanes, thanks to a 209 game that started the day.
Caden Burk was next best with 557 and Alexander Heimbrock rounded out the top three with a 554 that included the day’s high game of 227.
And in the HotShots, Symphony Smith is getting better every week, this week posting a league career high series of 403 on games of 156, 116 and 131.
No-Tap Colorama
JP Nauman got top billing in the senior No-Tap Colorama a week ago last Friday afternoon with a 782 on games of 207, 258 and 266.
Second place went to Roy Johnson for a 771 and Damon Foster took third with 763.
Margit Augustine showed her skills scoring an 814 to take first place for the ladies with games of 236, 244 and 187.
Dee Gustafson landed on 700 even for a second place win.
JP Nauman also placed in first in scratch singles with 731, followed by Sam Bowman, 699 and Russell Nauman, 696.
Mystery Doubles matchups went as follows.
Gm. 1, 1st – Randy Travis/Carl Tucker, 516
Gm. 1, 2nd – Russell Nauman/Tom Rine, 510
Gm. 2, 1st – JP Nauman/James Halstead Jr., 534
Gm. 2, 2nd – Margit Augustine/Cleo Travis, 530
Gm. 3, 1st – Sam Bowman/Cle Cox, 568
Gm. 3, 2nd – Roy Olson/Sam Bowman, 519
Strike pot winners included Roy Johnson, Roy Olson and Damon Foster but there were no takers in the special challenge shot tickets.
Cleo Travis rolled nine, strike and three to bust with twenty-two, looking to win the “21 Jackpot”, Rob-ert Lansberry made a run at “Match Play” but after back to back eight counts only got seven pins on his last throw.
Roy Olson needed eight but got a strike to lose out on the “Pill Draw” prize and Lansberry was back for a try at “Snake-Bite” but got a strike instead, just as Elaine Henderson did in her try at capturing Waldo with a head-pin leave.
Senior age bowlers 50 and older are invited to join the fun every Friday afternoon at 1 p.m. at Thunder-bird Lanes.
Tournament news
The final squads of the Sixth Annual Mixed Game Doubles tournament will be held today at 11 a.m. and 2:30 p.m. at Thunderbird Lanes.
Standings and stats were not available at press time but Tournament Director Carl Christman was looking to pay first place $500 with 35 entries.
This tournament features six different variations of scoring with handicap were applicable.
Most importantly, all proceeds from this event will go to the Knights of Columbus for their distribution to needy causes and organizations throughout our community.
Scores, FYI
As we start this new season, allow me to take the opportunity the thank all of the secretaries who faithfully send your scores in each week to be published.

Under the Kisan Credit Card, a farmer can get a loan of up to Rs 3 lakh for farming. This amount will be paid to the farmer at an interest rate of 4 percent.
In addition to farmers, those who do animal husbandry, and fisheries can also apply for agricultural loans under the Kisan Credit Card. It is also not compulsory for the applicant to have agricultural land.
Animal husbandry or fisheries can avail of a loan of up to Rs 2 lakh at an interest rate of 4 percent.
The Pradhan Mantri Kisan (PM-Kisan) Samman Nidhi Yojana (Scheme) that looks to provide financial assistance to the tune of Rs 6,000 annually to farmers was disbursed in May. However, now the government has decided to take strict action against fake beneficiaries of the scheme. Several cases have surfaced in Jharkhand where ineligible beneficiaries were taking benefits of the scheme. Following this, the government has registered a case of fraud against them.

Leeds museum scores with retro Subbuteo collection
By Alex Moss
BBC News
- Published
Generations of players have delighted in the finger-flicking football game Subbuteo. While it has enjoyed a resurgence sparked by lockdown, a vintage collection of the game is being given a rare run-out in Leeds.
Created by RAF serviceman Peter Adolph in 1947, it is 75 years since the cult classic was first brought alive.
The game inventor crafted the early miniature players from flat cardboard which were fixed into the buttons of his mother's clothing and weighted down with lead washers.
It was the start of a phenomenon where players could pit their fancy fingerwork against each other on a pretty even playing field.
Over the decades, the game's popularity skyrocketed and it was eventually acquired by Leeds-based board game giants Waddingtons before later being taken over.
For the most hardcore "flick to kick" enthusiasts, there exist hundreds of different teams organised by leagues and country with England's Lionesses recently being added in the Subbuteo line-up.
But the more traditional versions have been resurrected by Leeds Museum, alongside some "exciting new additions" which have come from the personal archive of Victor Watson, the last managing director of Waddingtons.
Curator Kitty Ross said: "We have this fantastic 1978 World Cup Subbuteo set which must have absolutely been one of the top-notch things to get, because like Lego, you got it in little boxes and built up your collection.
"It's an enormous full set and comes with a journalist pointing a camera, cheering fans, a policeman and and even a player on a stretcher."
For those keen to get the full immersive experience of the beautiful (miniature) game, Kitty picks out the 1973 vinyl album of The Subbuteo Sound. Billed as providing "all the thrilling sounds of real-life international football", it was designed to add an authentic atmosphere to games.
Kitty explains: "The game itself is a very simple concept, but its popularity stemmed from how it tapped into a love of sport and how it allowed players to use their imaginations and immerse themselves in their matches.
"The huge array of accessories and personalisation which were made available were testament to how seriously some players and collectors took the game too."
While the game was intended to be friendly and fun, it has at times become as competitive as the real thing with hardcore players testing their dexterity in the Subbuteo World Cup. Merchandise from the international event staged in Rome in 1990 - which coincided with football's World Cup - features in the Leeds collection.
Other objects include detailed books of 1950s instructions for how to play and a photo showing workers at the original Subbuteo factory in Tunbridge Wells from the 1960s.
Kitty Ross says: "For the generations who have played and enjoyed it, Subbuteo has become something of a cult classic and is one of a very select number of games which is instantly recognisable around the world.
"We're extremely fortunate to have such an extensive and impressive collection which documents a fascinating chapter in the story of toys and games and their relationship to Leeds."
The Subbuteo collection is to feature in a special Leeds Museum exhibition next year.

After playing a sold out show at SoFi Stadium on Friday, The Weeknd came on stage to a crowded stadium on Saturday to announce he had lost his voice and had to end the show.
Fans packed SoFi Stadium for the second night in a row waiting to see the Canadian singer and songwriter during his After Hours Til Dawn tour.
However, in the middle of the concert he came on stage to announce that he had to end the show.
“I can’t give you the concert that I want to give you right now,” The Weeknd said. “I’m gonna make sure everybody’s good. Get your money back.”
The artist tweeted that he felt his voice go out during the first song and promised fans he would make it up to them with a new date.
“I apologize, I’m so sorry, I love you guys so much,” he said to the crowd of fans.
Entertainment News
Fans could be heard exclaiming in disappointment as the singer announced he would plan another show for them, saying he could not give them the show he wanted.
“He just came out of nowhere and he’s like oh I lost my voice guys and he just said he’ll give us our money back or something like that,” Sean Ziko, a Torrance resident said. “It sounded like he was about to cry.”
During what appeared to be the performance of his song “Can’t Feel My Face,” the crowd cheered to an empty stage and sang along to the song.
Fans were confused as to what was happening when they saw The Weeknd was not continuing with the concert.
A large crowd of concertgoers was seen exiting SoFi Stadium after the show was canceled. | https://www.nbcnewyork.com/entertainment/entertainment-news/the-weeknd-ends-la-concert-after-losing-voice-apologizes-to-fans/3850708/ | 2022-09-04T07:24:52Z | https://www.nbcnewyork.com/entertainment/entertainment-news/the-weeknd-ends-la-concert-after-losing-voice-apologizes-to-fans/3850708/ | false |
LOS ANGELES (AP) — When Juliana Macedo do Nascimento signed up for an Obama-era program to shield immigrants who came to the country as young children from deportation, she enrolled at California State University, Los Angeles, transitioning from jobs in housekeeping, child care, auto repair and a construction company.
Now, a decade later at age 36, graduate studies at Princeton University are behind her and she works in Washington as deputy director of advocacy for United We Dream, a national group.
“Dreamers” like Macedo do Nascimento, long a symbol of immigrant youth, are increasingly easing into middle age as eligibility requirements have been frozen since 2012, when the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program was introduced.
The oldest recipients were in their early 30s when DACA began and are in their early 40s today. At the same time, fewer people turning 16 can meet a requirement to have been in the United States continuously since June 2007.
The average age of a DACA recipient was 28.2 years in March, up from 23.8 in September 2017, according to the Migration Policy Institute. About 40% are 30 or older, according to fwd.us, a group that supports DACA.
As fewer are eligible and new enrollments have been closed since July 2021 under court order, the number of DACA recipients fell to just above 600,000 at the end of March, according to government figures.
Beneficiaries have become homeowners and married. Many have U.S. citizen children.
“DACA is not for young people,” Macedo do Nascimento said. “They’re not even eligible for it anymore. We are well into middle age.”
Born out of President Barack Obama’s frustration with Congress’ failure to reach an agreement on immigration reform, DACA was meant to be a temporary solution and many saw it as imperfect from the start. Immigration advocates were disappointed the policy didn’t include a pathway to citizenship and warned the program’s need to be renewed every two years would leave many feeling in limbo. Opponents, including many Republicans, saw the policy a legal overreach on Obama’s part and criticized it as rewarding people who hadn’t followed immigration law.
In a move intended to insulate DACA from legal challenge, the Biden administration released a 453-page rule on Aug. 24 that sticks closely to DACA as it was introduced in 2012. It codified DACA as a regulation by subjecting it to potential changes after extensive public comment.
DACA advocates welcomed the regulation but were disappointed that age eligibility was unchanged.
The rule was “a missed opportunity,” said Karen Tumlin, an attorney and director of Justice Action Center. DACA, she said, was “locked in time, like a fossil preserved in amber.”
The administration weighed expanding age eligibility but decided against it, said Ur Jaddou, director of U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, which administers the program.
“The president told us, ‘How do we preserve and fortify DACA? How do we ensure the security of the program and how best to do that?’ and this was the determination that was made after a lot of thought and careful consideration,” Jaddou said Monday in Los Angeles.
The 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, which is considering a challenge to DACA from Texas and eight other states, asked both sides to explain how the new rule affects the program’s legal standing.
Texas, in a court filing Thursday, said the rule can’t save DACA. The states conceded that it’s similar to the 2012 memo that created the program but that they “share many of the same defects.”
The executive branch has “neither the authority to decide the major questions that DACA addresses, nor the power to confer substantive immigration benefits,” the states wrote.
The Justice Department argued the new rule — “substantively identical” to the original program — renders moot the argument that the administration failed to follow federal rule-making procedures.
DACA has been closed to new enrollees since July 2021 while the case winds its way through the New Orleans-based appeals court but two-year renewals are allowed.
Uncertainty surrounding DACA has caused anxiety and frustration among aging recipients.
Pamela Chomba, 32, arrived with her family from Peru at age 11 and settled in New Jersey. She worries about losing her job and missing mortgage payments if DACA is ruled illegal. She put off becoming a mother because she doesn’t know if she can stay in the U.S. and doesn’t want to be a “burden” on her children.
“We’re people with lives and plans, and we really just want to make sure that we can feel safe,” said Chomba, director of state immigration campaigns for fwd.us.
Macedo do Nascimento was 14 when she arrived with her family from Brazil in 2001. She has not seen a brother who returned to Brazil just before DACA was announced in 10 years. International travel under DACA is highly restricted.
Like Biden and many DACA advocates, she believes legislation is the answer.
“Congress is the ultimate solution here,” she said. “(Both parties) keep passing the ball between each other.
The uncertainty has affected her, the eldest of three siblings.
“The fear of being deported has come back,” Macedo do Nascimento said, because “you never know when this policy is going to end.”

ISTANBUL (AP) — Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan upped his rhetoric against Greece on Saturday, threatening to “come down suddenly one night.”
Erdogan has previously used that phrase to hint at looming military operations into Syria and Iraq against Kurdish militants that Turkey deems existential threats. He made good on that threat several times.
Speaking at an aerial technology festival in Samsun where Turkey showcased the prototype of an unmanned fighter jet, Erdogan lashed out at neighboring Greece amid political and military tensions.
Turkey has accused Greece of using Russian-made S-300 missile systems in Crete to lock onto Turkish jets in August. Ankara has also said Greek F-16s harassed Turkish jets by putting them under a radar lock during a NATO mission over the eastern Mediterranean. Turkey is submitting complaints with NATO. Athens has also accused Turkey of violating its airspace.
Although both NATO members, Turkey and Greece have decades-old disputes over an array of issues, including territorial claims in the Aegean Sea and disagreements over the airspace there. The friction has brought them to the brink of war three times in the last half-century.
Turkey claims Greece is violating international agreements by militarizing islands in the Aegean Sea.
“You occupying the islands doesn’t bind us,” Erdogan said Saturday. “When the time comes, we’ll do what’s necessary. As we say, we may come down suddenly one night.”
He added: “Look at history, if you go further, the price will be heavy.”
“We have one sentence to Greece: Don’t forget Izmir,” Erdogan said, in a reference to a crushing defeat of occupying Greek forces in the western city by the Turkish military in 1922.
Erdogan and Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis held rare talks over lunch in Istanbul in March but that positive trend diminished soon after. In May, Erdogan said he would no longer speak with Mitsotakis after the Greek premier visited Washington where he pushed to acquire F-35 stealth fighter jets while lobbying against Turkey’s attempts to upgrade its F-16 fleet.
Erdogan said in July that Turkey didn’t have interest in war with Greece, but said the country should stop violating Turkish airspace. | https://www.conchovalleyhomepage.com/news/international/ap-turkish-leader-erdogan-ups-rhetoric-on-greece-amid-tensions/ | 2022-09-04T07:27:14Z | https://www.conchovalleyhomepage.com/news/international/ap-turkish-leader-erdogan-ups-rhetoric-on-greece-amid-tensions/ | false |

PINE BLUFF, Ark. (AP) — Kayvon Britten rushed for 237 yards and three touchdowns and Arkansas-Pine Bluff held on to defeat Division II Lane College 48-42 on Saturday night.
The Golden Lions led throughout the second half but never by more than two scores. Jalen Macon's 31-yard touchdown pass to Raequan Prince put UAPB up 48-35 late in the third quarter.
Lane closed to within 48-42 early in the fourth when Michae Huntley hit O'Joshu Bunton with a 49-yard touchdown pass. After UAPB missed a short field goal with 5:02 remaining, Huntley led the Dragons to midfield but was sacked on a fourth-down play. UAPB then drove to the 1-yard line before letting the clock run out.
Skyler Perry was 16-of-27 passing for 222 yards and one touchdown for UAPB. Macon was 3-for-5 passing for 45 yards and the touchdown to Prince.
Huntley completed 15 of 21 passes for 328 yards and three touchdowns for Lane. He was sacked four times. Both Bunton and Jacquez Jones went over 100 yards receiving.
The game featured more than 1,000 yards total offense with UAPB outgaining Lane 521-511.

Skincare influencer says he avoids celebrity brands like Kim Kardashian's SKKN and Jeffree Star because shoppers are just paying for 'good branding' - and reveals the five high street brands he swears by instead
- Scott McGlynn, 35 is the host of popular online show Celebrity Skin Talk
- The skin expert suffered with acne and gives advice for those with sensitive skin
- He explains why some brands are 'just not worth the money'
A skincare influencer has explained why avoids some celebrity-branded products - and swears by high street brands instead.
Scott McGlynn, 35, from Cardiff, host of online talk show Celebrity Skin Talk, said pricey products from big names like Kim Kardashian and Jeffree Star are not worth the money because customers are largely paying for the branding and swish packaging.
The content creator has sensitive skin and spoke to FEMAIL about the go-to products that never fail.
Scott McGlynn, 35, pictured, said pricey products from big names like Kim Kardashian and Jeffree Star are not worth the money because customers are largely paying for the branding and swish packaging
Jeffree Star Skin Banana Fetish Hydrating Skin Moisturizer £23, left. Scott claims these heavily scented products are more about branding than skincare itself. Right, products from Kim Kardashian's SKKN range
He told FEMAIL: 'I've worked with brands for years, and I know there is a legacy of science and research behind these luxury and budget brands in the industry.
'I was sent samples of Kim's range [SKKN] to try but I refuse to review it because I feel it's targeted at under 25's and you are simply paying for a name instead of a quality product.
'Ingredients wise, these products don't have anything special that warrants such a high price tag. Some of them are as much as £50 for a small volume of product in a very aesthetic looking little globe - so you are also paying for packaging.
'Fun packaging can be alluring for consumers, as can fun fragrances - but to achieve that fragrance, a lot of chemicals will have to be added.'
Jeffree Star, a US based singer and YouTuber has his own cosmetics range, which is known for being hugely popular with the TikTok generation.
The celeb skincare guru isn't against luxury brands - he does however want to educate people on how to choose their skincare wisely. Scott is pictured above with Kiehl's Avocado Nourishing Hydration Mask £38
His skincare products include Jeffree Star Cosmetics Strawberry Water Facial Toner 135ml for £23 and Jeffree Star Cosmetics Banana Fetish Moisturizer £23.
Scott, who posts on Instagram at @scottmcglynnofficial, said: 'I don't doubt his cosmetic range is great, but when it comes to skincare, again aimed at young people, things that are marketed to smell like banana or strawberry are going to have a lot of chemicals that won't necessarily be good for sensitive skin.
'Well known brands have researched and tested their products, and as someone with problem skin I have certainly done my research on how certain ingredients affect the skin.
'That's why I refuse to test gimmicky products brought out on a whim by celebrities to cash in on their name and part young people with their hard earned cash.'
Love Island's Coco Lodge on Celebrity Skin Talk, Scott's online chat show that took off durign the pandemic
Scott doesn't hide a love for luxury brands such as Kiehl's, known for it's advanced skincare technology and was founded in 1851. He also says that not all celebrity skincare brands are a waste of money.
The content creator said: 'I like Florence by Mills [the brand launched by Millie Bobbi Brown], I used her products and the ingredients are incredible.'
However he says that cheaper brands can be just as good.
He said: 'My message is that don't think because a product is cheap it doesn't work and high street brands such as Boots have a range that suits all types of skin from dry to oily.'
Scott started his online show in a bid to assure people that 'celebrities have skin problems like everyone else'.
The content creator is acutely aware that Hollywood's finest stars are under pressure to look a certain way, and it's for precisely that reason that he wants to change the way we think of celebrity skincare with his show. | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-11148569/Skincare-guru-explains-refuses-test-Kim-Kardashian-beauty-Jeffree-Star-products.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ito=1490&ns_campaign=1490 | 2022-09-04T07:49:28Z | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-11148569/Skincare-guru-explains-refuses-test-Kim-Kardashian-beauty-Jeffree-Star-products.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ito=1490&ns_campaign=1490 | true |
EXCLUSIVE: This is how you do it, Joe! Jared and Ivanka enjoy family bike ride through the Miami Beach boardwalk after his second surgery for thyroid cancer
- Kushner, 41, was stepping out after his second surgery for thyroid cancer, which had been deemed a success, and as the rollout continues for his memoir
- He wore a white button down shirt, khaki pants and a New York Mets baseball cap as he rode with Ivanka, 40, and their three children
- Ivanka kept cool from the sun in a wide-brimmed sun hat and a chic dress
- It has been tough times for the family of late, as Kushner recently had surgery for thyroid cancer and Trump is grieving the loss of her mother
Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump enjoyed an idyllic family outing on a group bike ride through the boardwalks near their home in Miami Beach, Florida.
Kushner, 41, was stepping out after his second surgery for thyroid cancer, which had been deemed a success, and as the rollout continues for his White House memoir, 'Breaking History.'
He wore a white button down shirt, khaki pants and a New York Mets baseball cap as he rode with Ivanka, 40, and their three children, Arabella, Joseph and Theodore.
Ivanka kept cool from the sun in a wide-brimmed sun hat and a chic dress.
The family was all smiles as they rode their bikes down the boardwalk.

The pair have been busy and a bit more public than after they moved to the Sunshine State following the end of Donald Trump's presidency, which both worked under.
Ivanka was last spotted Wednesday afternoon fighting back tears as she took an emotional phone call on her way to the gym.
The former White House senior adviser hid her eyes behind a pair of gold-frame aviator sunglasses, but she appeared to be crying — or close to it — while holding her cellphone up to her ear.
It's likely been a difficult few months for Ivanka, whose husband, Jared Kushner, had second surgery a week ago to treat an apparent recurrence of thyroid cancer, which was said to be a success.
The mother of three was dressed in a navy hooded sweatshirt with a white V-design and cropped black leggings, despite the balmy Florida weather. She topped off her workout look with a pair of black New Balance sneakers.

Her blonde hair was pulled back in a messy knot, and her white earbuds were hanging around her neck. She also had a red string bracelet on her wrist, which she has been wearing off and on for years.
Three weeks ago, Jared and Ivanka were seen visiting the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota, where he was being treated for the disease.
His latest surgery comes after he publicly revealed his treatment for the first time in his new book, 'Breaking History: A White House Memoir.'
Jared wrote that he had a similar surgery for thyroid cancer in 2019 while serving as President Donald Trump's senior White House adviser.
In addition to the stress of her husband's treatment, Ivanka is also grieving the loss of her mother.

Ivana Trump, 73, was found 'unconscious and unresponsive' at the bottom of the staircase in her Upper East Side townhouse on July 14 around 12:30 p.m. Her housekeeper found her as she arrived for work and called 911.
A medical examiner determined that she died from blunt impact injuries as a result of a fall, according to TMZ.
Ivanka's father was seen comforting her at her mother's funeral, the first time that they had been seen together in seven months since their public falling out over the 2020 presidential election. | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11177757/Jared-Kushner-Ivanka-Trump-sunny-family-bike-ride-Miami-Beach-boardwalk.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ito=1490&ns_campaign=1490 | 2022-09-04T07:50:13Z | https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11177757/Jared-Kushner-Ivanka-Trump-sunny-family-bike-ride-Miami-Beach-boardwalk.html?ns_mchannel=rss&ito=1490&ns_campaign=1490 | false |

PENSACOLA, Fla. (AP) — Back in the day, Chip Simmons and Hassan Hills had something of a professional acquaintanceship.
Simmons was a young police officer and Hills was a teenage drug dealer. The way they saw it, they each had a job to do, and over the years, their trades caused them to cross paths several times.
Simmons either investigated or arrested Hills on multiple occasions and was part of the federal narcotics task force that helped put Hills in prison on charges related to conspiring to possess powdered cocaine and crack cocaine and close to 200 pounds of marijuana.
But when Hills was released from federal custody last year, Simmons was one of the first people he called. And Simmons, now the Escambia County sheriff, did more than just answer the call.
Simmons agreed to help Hills achieve his new calling — to strengthen the communities he had harmed by distributing drugs as a young man.
Less than two years after leaving federal custody, Hills has founded the new Pensacola-based nonprofit Youths Left Behind Corp., aimed at providing mentorship and guidance to children with incarcerated parents.
“He feels like he owes the community a debt, and he has set out to repay that debt,” Simmons said. “I’m glad to be able to help him in any way that I can, and I’m just super proud of him.”
Drugs, cops and drug cops
Hills, 42, knows firsthand what it is to have an absentee parent. His mom suffered from addiction at the height of the 1980s crack epidemic when she and her children were still living in Camden, New Jersey. When she was arrested, Hills and his siblings were nearly separated from each other by the state.
But Hills’ mom was eventually released from prison into New Jersey’s Intensive Supervision Program and moved her family to Pensacola in 1992 for a fresh start.
She had a hard time finding work in Florida with her criminal record, forcing her and her children to live off $364 of welfare per month.
“Unfortunately due to our financial situation, I started selling crack,” Hills said.
Hills said he sold his first crack rock on the corner of A and Jackson streets in Pensacola at the age of 14.
“I had to do what I had to do in order to put food on the table and provide for me and my family,” he said. “What started off as just something to provide for my family led to a heart of greed, and I got addicted. ... What most people don’t understand is that it’s an addiction. The money, the fame, the adrenaline that you get, it’s an addiction.”
It was around that time that he first met the future sheriff.
Simmons began his decades-long career as a Pensacola police officer before a series of promotions ended in him being named the city’s chief of police and later being elected sheriff of Escambia County in 2020.
Hills and Simmons crossed paths when they were both out on the street. Sometimes Simmons was there to make an arrest, sometimes not.
“We had a lot of conversations. You have to understand, there were many times that we would interact when he wasn’t arrested,” Simmons said. “We stopped, and we talked to them. We kind of knew what he was up to, and they knew that we were doing our job. As long as you don’t mistreat people and you do the job for the right reason, then I think there’s a level of respect there, at least.”
Hills’ first juvenile case was for sale and delivery, a felony offense he picked up from selling crack to a confidential informant.
“I got arrested, sent to jail, got back out, got caught with some more crack, went back to jail,” Hills said.
Hills also climbed the ranks quickly, and at age 17, he was dealing in large quantities of narcotics coming in from out of town.
“By the time I was 20 years old, I was hit with a federal indictment,” he said.
A federal motion filed by Hills’ defense attorney, Randall Lockhart, stated, “At sentencing the Court found that Mr. Hills was responsible for 20.25 kilograms of powder cocaine and 196 pounds of marijuana; the powder cocaine was converted to crack cocaine using a ‘multiplier,’ because it was the ‘practice’ of the co-defendants in the conspiracy ‘to sell cocaine base,’ and this resulted in Mr. Hills being held responsible for 16.2 kilograms of crack cocaine and 88.90 kilograms of marijuana.”
Hills was found guilty and had two prior felonies. Due to a federal enhancement code, Hills was sentenced to life in prison Dec. 19, 2001.
‘Matured’ from old behaviors
Twenty years later, Simmons recognized the name when an aide told him there was a phone call from one “Hassan Hills.”
“I recognize the name because, again, he was a pretty big target for us back in the day,” Simmons said, adding he took the call because “I never really thought that he would be angry or violent ... and I was curious as to what he wanted.”
Hills never thought he would get out of prison. But he caught a break with what seemed to him like a series of incredibly “fortunate” events.
First, federal sentencing measures changed between 2001 and 2021, removing the type of mandated life sentence Hills originally received for having three nonviolent, drug-related felony convictions.
Then Hills was named as one of the 330 people former President Barak Obama commuted on his last day in the White House, which reduced his sentence from life in prison to 30 years in prison with credit for time served.
And when former President Donald Trump in 2019 signed revised provisions within the Fair Sentencing Act into law, Hills had the opportunity to apply for the benefits. He did, and his motion for an earlier release was granted.
In an order for release, Senior U.S. District Judge Lacey A. Collier noted that although Hills’ disciplinary record in prison showed “several infractions,” his record had been clean since 2013, suggesting that “he has matured away from the sort of behavior that landed him in prison.”
Hills was released Feb. 5, 2021.
“Out of all of the thousands of people in federal prison, I made it out and I always told myself that if I ever got out, I will come back to the communities that I once destroyed and try to build them from within by working with our young people,” Hills said.
Hills had big ideas about how he wanted to mentor young people but knew he needed guidance on how to accomplish it.
“When I found out that (Simmons) had made sheriff, I had just came home,” Hills said. “I was saying to myself, ‘Well, this is what I want to do.’ Then I wondered if Sheriff Chip Simmons would talk to me?”
Simmons invited Hills to his office and after listening to the recent releasee about his goals, the sheriff said, “Hassan Hills, I believe in you.”
It meant a lot to Hills.
“A person of my background, of what I’ve been through, doesn’t really stand a chance — a convicted felon, been in the prisons, drug dealer, served 20 years,” Hills later recalled. “To get out and to hear that from somebody we put in office — that they ‘believed in me’ — that’s all I needed to know that I can make a difference within the city of Pensacola, within the state of Florida, within the United States. Those four words, they motivated me to move. This is why I’m where I’m at now.”
Putting in the work
Speaking to him these days, there’s no sign of Hills’ troubled past, just determination and sincerity as he discusses what he wants for the youth of Pensacola.
The federal government had pronounced him rehabilitated, and Hills believes he’s reformed himself into a better man than the person he was as an adolescent.
After speaking with Simmons, Hills began volunteering at AMIkids Pensacola – Escambia Boys Base, a moderate-risk residential halfway house at Corry Station that provides young men mental health services, vocational and academic training and mentoring.
“I myself was in the juvenile facility growing up, and when I went there, I saw the eyes of the children, the need for some mentorship,” Hills said.
He started a “mentorship session” at the organization that takes place every Sunday from 6 to 8:30 p.m.
The sessions are meant to be a relaxed setting in which Hills can tell the boys about his own experiences and help them to consider topics such as where they’d like to be in three to five years.
“Most people don’t realize that they live right now solely based on decisions they made three to five years ago,” Hills said.
The group also discusses issues like peer pressure.
“And then, we talk about what they have learned from their past mistakes,” Hills said.
The sessions are completely voluntary. Only eight boys attended when Hills first started. The sessions now regularly draw more than 20 boys.
Once a month, Hills spends an entire Saturday in DeFuniak Springs speaking with the teenagers in custody at the Academy of Growth and Development, a facility that houses a secure residential treatment program.
Hill said he mentors 15 boys “from the inner city,” unassociated with either of the Department of Juvenile Justice facilities, on weekly basis. Last week, he drove two of them to the Escambia County Tax Collector’s Office to get their first driver’s licenses.
Hills refers to his mentoring curriculum and teaching style as one that continues develop “peer group empowerment.”
“Our objective at Youths Left Behind is to aid and assist youth who’ve been affected by a parent, guardian or loved one caught up in the system of mass incarceration, drug addiction and to provide comprehensive mentorship,” Hills said.
His ultimate aim is to afford a brick-and-mortar location for his nonprofit that will be located close to the low-income neighborhoods where he once dealt drugs to provide walkable or bikeable access for kids who live there now.
Eventually, he hopes to enter into negotiations with state and federal agencies and set up computers in the nonprofit’s space where children can use Skype or Zoom to speak to their incarcerated parents.
“Anytime you separate a child from their parents for long periods of time, whether it’s the parents’ wrongdoing or whatever, it has a mental effect,” Hills said.
Recently, Hills has started to attend and bring some of his mentees to the Escambia County Sheriff’s Office for the Sheriff’s Blazer Academy, where both Hills and Simmons spoke before a small crowd of attendees together.
“People really listen whenever he speaks,” Simmons said.
Simmons and Hills have additionally spoken together at the Boys Base.
It’s something of a professional acquaintanceship, only now both men have a similar job: working to make the community better and safer.
“If you’d have told me 20-something years ago that we’d be sharing a stage together, talking about the evils of drug trafficking, I would’ve said, ‘You’re crazy,’” Simmons said. | https://www.sfchronicle.com/news/article/Former-drug-dealer-builds-up-communities-17418501.php | 2022-09-04T08:05:07Z | https://www.sfchronicle.com/news/article/Former-drug-dealer-builds-up-communities-17418501.php | false |

Sharks topple Knights
A hat-trick to Briton Nikora helped Cronulla to a comfortable 38-16 win over Newcastle that confirmed a first NRL top-two finish for the Sharks since 1999.
The Sharks will now host North Queensland in a qualifying final next weekend at home, where they are on a five-match winning streak against the third-placed Cowboys.
The win in Newcastle Stadium was Cronulla's sixth in a row but looks to have come at a cost.
A hip-drop tackle from Mat Croker left State of Origin representative Siosifa Talakai with an apparent ankle injury in the final two minutes of play.
Both men left the field: Croker to the sin-bin and Talakai to the casualty ward.
Newcastle was determined to finish its disappointing season on a positive note and made the error-prone Sharks work hard to confirm their home qualifying final.
But just as they did against Canberra in their last home match, the initially-competitive Knights fell away the further the game went on and were unable to withstand repeated pressure close to the line.
Cronulla's handling errors gave the Knights early field position but the home side struggled to capitalise on territory without injured playmakers Kalyn Ponga, Anthony Milford and Jake Clifford.
When Cronulla scored against the run of play through Luke Metcalf, who pounced on an Adam Clune kick and streaked 95 metres, the Knights' spirits could well have broken.
But the home side replied with a long-range try of their own, with Dominic Young picking off a wayward Nicho Hynes pass to lock the match up at half-time.
As rain teemed down in Newcastle, the Sharks lifted their intensity and scored within 43 seconds of the restart in the second half.
Cronulla regained possession from a short kick-off and rolled forward to the tryline, where second-rower Nikora grabbed his second try.
The Sharks wrestled territory back as the second 40 went on and when Nikora completed his first NRL hat-trick, they had built up an unassailable lead. | https://www.abc.net.au/news/2022-09-04/nrl-knights-sharks-tigers-raiders/101402294 | 2022-09-04T08:10:30Z | https://www.abc.net.au/news/2022-09-04/nrl-knights-sharks-tigers-raiders/101402294 | false |
