Penn State wrestling has done it again. Cael Sanderson and the Nittany Lions secured the program’s 11th NCAA championship since Sanderson was hired in 2009 and Penn State’s 12th NCAA championship overall. The program’s first title came in 1953 and, under Sanderson as coach, Penn State has become one of the top dynasties in sports. The Nittany Lions, winners of the Big Ten championship and the Big Ten regular-season crown, entered T Mobile Center in Kansas City as the heavy favorites to secure a third consecutive team title and, while the three-day event concludes Saturday night, PSU has already blown...

The FDA has agreed to delete and never republish several social-media posts suggesting that ivermectin, a drug that some doctors used to treat COVID-19, is for animals and not humans. While the FDA still does not approve of using ivermectin to treat COVID, it settled Thursday a lawsuit brought by three doctors who sued it, as well as the Department of Health and Human Services and its secretary, Xavier Becerra, and FDA secretary Robert Califf. All parties have settled. The lawsuit, filed on June 2, 2022, was brought by doctors Mary Talley Bowden, Paul Marik and Robert Apter, each of...

The last 5 minutes of The Da Vinci Code as linked below are a cinematic masterpiece. Combined with Zimmer's otherworldly composition, it frames the sudden dawn of understanding, of revelation. It is the triumph of intellect and reason, of faith and spirit distilled and channeled into one stunning and moving realization. Those of you who have read the book and seen the movie know what I'm talking about. Even moreso if you've read Holy...

The way people buy and sell homes in the U.S. may be about to change, following a landmark settlement proposed by the nation’s top real-estate-industry group. But that may not make things easy for home buyers, one mortgage-company CEO says. The settlement proposed by the National Association of Realtors, which will go into effect in mid-July if it’s approved, would require that listings on the NAR-run Multiple Listing Service — a database of homes for sale — no longer have a field showing how much buyer’s agents will earn in commissions on the sale. In other words, buyer’s agents won’t...

NBC raised eyebrows Friday when it announced that former Republican National Committee Chair Ronna McDaniel will join the network as an on-air contributor. McDaniel, who stepped down from the RNC at the start of this month, will provide conservative political analysis on NBC and its affiliate MSNBC. She makes her on-air debut on Sunday. NBC News political coverage chief Carrie Budoff Brown explained that McDaniel was chosen because she can provide “an insider’s perspective on national politics and the future of the Republican Party.” That insider knowledge is apparently enough for NBC to overlook the rest of McDaniel’s history. Although...

Fox News host Emily Compagno said Friday on “Outnumbered'” that as a Republican, she was “sick and tired” of Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s (R-GA) for her attempt to oust House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA), which she called a “tantrum.” Compagno said, “I feel like we are seeing yet another tantrum by a tiny faction of that conference that is disrupting the entire machine that we just exhaustively waited for to get back on track. And here were are again; watching someone steal the time, steal the audio, steal the limelight, steal the attention. She says we should have our attention...

Friday evening, Moscow time, four or five armed men strolled into the Crocus Concert Hall in northwest Moscow and opened fire on the crowd. Before departing the area they had killed at least 40 people and wounded over 100 more. My colleague, Ward Clark, has some good observations; the only one I'd add is that at least two of the attackers had trouble managing magazine changes. While Dmitry Medvedev, deputy head of the Russian Security Council, hinted that Ukraine had been behind the attack and threatened to commit atrocities that the Russians have failed to commit so far should Ukraine...

Shortly after a massive terrorist attack in Moscow, Russia, the first unverified claim of responsibility has been made. Initial speculation centered on Chechen rebels or Ukrainians, but according to a post put out by the Amaq News Agency, which is the propaganda wing for ISIS, the terrorist group is saying it carried out the attack. In English: ISIS claims responsibility for the terror attack in Moscow Reports from the scene suggest the men who carried out the attack were bearded and carrying Russian AK-style weapons. That doesn't exactly narrow it down given the proliferation of both throughout the world. Still,...

RNS) — A Hindu advocate has called for an official apology from General Mills after learning Yoplait brand yogurts contain gelatin sourced from beef.
