In all the preseason chaos yesterday, some got lost in a report that came out on Friday from Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area, who reported that the Cleveland Browns offered Amari Cooper and a second- and fifth-round draft pick to the 49ers in exchange for wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk. Like the New England Patriots, Aiyuk blocked that from happening, or as Maiocco put it, “it wasn't Aiyuk's preferred destination.” Now, the above trade: Cooper, 2nd, 5th, and another 3rd if Cooper leaves in free agency (via a compensatory pick). This is a rip-off. I've been pushing for two…
When we think of beach holidays, we often think of the quintessential European countries that Brits know and love, but with anger growing this year over overtourism, there are several other countries offering a similar experience.Maybe we just don't know about it yet. A beautiful hidden gem beloved by European celebrities is the island of Sylt, the largest of Germany's North Frisia islands and the fourth largest in Germany.Known for its stunning scenery, sandy beaches and unique culture, it's not well known among British holidaymakers. This small German island shot to fame in the 1960s when a series of celebrity…
Marvel Studios decided to officially release the new trailer for Agatha All Along only during this weekend's D23 event, and as expected, plenty of the footage has been leaked onto social media. I thought the days of convention-exclusive sneak peeks were over for this very reason, but there's surely a reason for this apparent madness. Either way, now we have the second clip from Captain America: Brave New World , which shines the spotlight on President “Thunderbolt” Ross, played by Harrison Ford. The footage shows him holding court at a celestial summit as nations around the world rush to claim…

What industry will be the first to fall victim to climate change? Some say it happened over 600 years ago.When the Norman Conquest of 1066 established French feudal aristocracy in the British Isles, the invaders brought with them their love of winemaking. The technique flourished in the climatic conditions of the Medieval Warm Period, a period of unusually warm temperatures between 950 and 1250 that allowed vineyards to spread across the well-drained chalky soils of southern England. But this warm climate gave way to a period of extreme cold known as the Little Ice Age, which lasted until the 19th…

The New York Giants resumed practice on Sunday for the first time since their preseason opener against the Detroit Lions and welcomed back offensive lineman Evan Neal, but first-round draft pick Malik Neighbors left practice late with a suspected mild sprain in his left ankle.The nature of Neighbors' injury is unclear, but the sixth overall draft pick was evaluated by trainers on the sideline. The Louisiana State University product removed his shoes and socks and then sat on a chest to watch the end of the workout. Neighbors limped off the field after practice, and the Giants released the results…
Former President Donald Trump has attempted to downplay the turnout at his presidential opponent's rallies, falsely claiming that “no one was there” at a rally in Detroit hosted by Vice President Kamala Harris and running mate Gov. Tim Walz. Trump, who is obsessed with the size of his rallies and often exaggerates attendance figures, was “unhappy” with the numbers attending Harris and Waltz's campaign events, as Rolling Stone reported last week. “Did anyone notice that Kamala cheated at the airport?” Trump ranted on Truth Social on Sunday. “There was no one on the plane and she edited it with an…
There are an estimated 9,000 operational satellites in space today. By 2030, that number is expected to grow to 30,000. Phil Ridley sees opportunity in that growth.The current method of satellite communication typically involves individual satellites transmitting information to an antenna tethered to a dish on Earth. Over the past three years, Quasar Satellite Technologies, a startup that Ridley co-founded with Dr. Ilana Fain, has been developing a ground station that it claims can communicate with dozens of satellites simultaneously.It's been likened to a space version of Wi-Fi, mimicking a wireless router's ability to connect to multiple devices simultaneously. As…
