Exploring Seattle 30 years after a Tom Hanks romcom put it on the map
Two years ago Brisbane created a nice piece of sporting history for Australia when it was chosen to host the 2032 Olympic Games. Over more than 130 years of the world's biggest sporting spectacle, only one other nation has staged the event in three different cities: the United States, with St Louis 1904, Los Angeles 1932 and 1984, and Atlanta 1996. The Aussies have previously welcomed the Olympics to Melbourne 1956 and Sydney 2000, with Brisbane becoming the third.

“It’s literally the Barbie movie” “They shoulda just wore actual friar robes” - MLB Twitter appalled after San Diego Padres accidentally leak pictures of new City Connect jerseys Original
The San Diego Padres are the league's most recent team to get their Nike City Connect jerseys. The release didn't go as planned. Before being officially released, several photos of the jerseys leaked on social media. The Padres' City Connect jerseys are the latest in a series of jerseys that the MLB has been slowly releasing all year. Just last week, the Milwaukee Brewers recieved their City Connects, which received mixed reviews from fans.
“If he never hit again and concentrated on only pitching, he’s Jacob DeGrom in the American League" - MLB commentator dropped a hot take about two-way star Shohei Ohtani during Saturday Night Baseball
Shohei Ohtani is the most dynamic player the MLB has seen in years. He's both a star batter and an ace pitcher. He won the American League MVP trophy last season after hitting 46 home runs and posting a 9-2 pitching record with a 3.18 earned run average. But even the league's greatest players have their slumps. Some last weeks and maybe even months. They always turn it around; they're too talented not to. But that doesn't take away from the frustration these players feel throughout the slumps.
Alex Rodriguez was once urged by Jimmy Fallon to marry then-girlfriend Jennifer Lopez during the Super Bowl halftime show
Back in 1998, a fresh-faced Alex Rodriguez told a New York Yankees reporter that his dream date was Jennifer Lopez. Rodriguez was 23 years old at the time, and Lopez was 29. They wouldn't officially meet until 2005 at a Yankees game, and they wouldn't start dating until 2017. But the celebrities were destined to be together. Or so we thought. They broke up April 15, 2021, after being engaged for more than two years.
EKU mask policy seems largely theatrical
Nobody wanted to wear masks this semester. Of course, that’s been the case since the start of the pandemic, but I’d seen enough glimpses of normalcy over the summer to be excited to shed the necessary inconvenience of the mask. But when Kentucky’s public university presidents all signed a letter saying that they would be enforcing mask policies in the fall semester it wasn’t wholly unexpected.
Memory Millionaire: Kelly Meets the Press
Going on 30 years ago now, way before instant news stories or social media being blasted out by anyone with a smartphone using Instagram, Twitter or Facebook, our surfing news turned up in monthly and bimonthly doses in surfing magazines. The only way to get some surf news out there quickly was a press release to the news media followed up by a meet and greet press conference. This image is from around June 1991
when Kelly was in Australia on his way to Indonesia for a Tracks magazine surf trip.

Should We Blame Pulsars for Too Much Antimatter?
A new study suggests that pulsars are not the source of an unexpected surplus of antimatter particles detected by a space-based experiment. Dark matter remains a viable alternative explanation. Artist’s illustration of Geminga, a nearby pulsar that has been proposed to be the source of excess positrons measured at Earth.

Hang on for a minute...we're trying to find some more stories you might like. Close It has happened every day this summer. You order a cold drink to escape the scorching heat, and it’s handed to you in a plastic cup, complete with a lid and straw. Not thinking twice, you guzzle it down and then throw the whole plastic cup out. Inadvertently, you’ve become part of the plastic trash conflict.
Neutron Stars Discovered on Collision Course
Got any plans in 46 million years? If not, you should keep an eye out for PSR J1946+2052 around that time — this upcoming merger of two neutron stars promises to be an exciting show!
