10 Things You Should Know Before Buying An External Hard Drive (New Or Used)The rivalry between Ohio State and Michigan erupted into chaos after Saturday's game, with a skirmish breaking out on the field between players that led to police deploying pepper spray -- and some members of the Buckeyes coaching staff leaving the field bloodied. The fight broke out after Michigan's 13-10 upset win over Ohio State in Columbus, with Michigan players attempting to plant a flag at midfield and Buckeyes linebacker Jack Sawyer ripping away the flag. That set off a skirmish between the two teams, with some members of Ohio State's campus police seen deploying pepper spray. ESPN reporter Jake Trotter noted that some of the Buckeyes coaching staff were hurt in the fracas. "Police finally broke up the fight with what I think was pepper spray (or something similar). Ohio State assistant coaches and staff were seen bloodied coming off the field," Trotter shared in a post on X .

Michigan running back Jordan Marshall was seen carrying the team's flag again after the end of the fight. Related: Michigan Players Appear to Get Maced for Involvement in Ohio State Brawl
SAN DIEGO (AP) — Mark Few liked what he saw unfold at San Diego State's Viejas Arena when his No. 3 Gonzaga Bulldogs made their first foray outside of Spokane, Washington, this season. A double-digit victory in a packed, loud arena. Toughness from a deep, experienced lineup that once again is driven to win an elusive national championship. And, peeking a few seasons ahead, he saw an SDSU team that he views more as a future Pac-12 partner than rival. Behind big man Graham Ike and guard Ryan Nembhard, Gonzaga displayed its size, speed and strength in beating Brian Dutcher's young, hobbled squad 80-67 on Monday night. The Bulldogs returned the favor after SDSU won 84-74 last December at The Kennel in Spokane, which ended their 59-game nonconference winning streak. Both teams reached the Sweet Sixteen last season. Gonzaga is the only team in the nation to reach the Sweet Sixteen the last nine seasons as the Bulldogs extended their streak of NCAA Tournament appearances to 25 straight. Back in Spokane on Wednesday night, the Zags improved to 5-0 by routing Long Beach State 84-41, no doubt firing up expectations in the Lilac City and beyond. In a college sports climate dominated by NIL and the transfer portal, the Zags are stacked. Of the 12 possible players who could return from last year, 10 did, including all four starters. They returned 81% of last season's scoring and 71% of their rebounding. Six of its top seven scorers are back, along with 81.4% of minutes played. “We're tougher,” Few said. “We're physically tougher, we're mentally tougher, at least so far in the season. A lot of the same guys from last year. That's what happens when you stick around a couple of years. “You've got to have both to be able to go on the road in a place like this and dig out wins," Few added. "That's one thing San Diego State is going to bring. They're going to bring physicality, they're going to bring great athleticism, they're going to challenge you in every facet of the game.” Hoops powerhouse Gonzaga announced on Oct. 1 that it will move from the West Coast Conference, where it has dominated for most of the last quarter-century, into a Pac-12 conference being rebuilt around football. Beginning with the 2026-27 academic year, Gonzaga will become the eighth member along with holdovers Washington State and Oregon State, and fellow newcomers Boise State, San Diego State, Fresno State, Utah State and Colorado State from the Mountain West. While not as dominant as the Zags, the Aztecs have been one of the West Coast's best programs for several years, first under Steve Fisher and then Dutcher, his longtime assistant who is in his eighth season as head coach. “They're just going to be such a great partner, because they value basketball and they support basketball,” said Few, who's in his 26th season as head coach. “They understand, when you have a national program like we both have, it pays unbelievable dividends to the university, to the community, to the city and the state, like the Northwest and down here. They get that. We're looking for other like-minded places to partner with us.” Few said he would often chat with Fisher about the possibility of the Zags and Aztecs playing in the same conference. Fisher watches Aztecs games with his wife, Angie, from the second row above Steve Fisher Court. “We talked about it forever,” Few said. “I'm happy for Dutch. He's doing a great job." San Diego State reached its first Final Four in 2023, when Lamont Butler's thrilling buzzer-beater against Florida Atlantic lifted the Aztecs into the national championship game, where they lost 76-59 to UConn. SDSU was routed again by UConn, 82-52, in last season's Sweet Sixteen, while Gonzaga lost to Purdue. Gonzaga opened this season with a 101-63 win against then-No. 8 Baylor at the Spokane Arena. It was Gonzaga’s biggest victory margin over a top-10 opponent, over a team it lost to in the 2021 national title game in Indianapolis. Nembhard, who had 19 points and 10 assists against the Aztecs, said the Zags “did a really good job, actually,” of handling the pressure of playing at Viejas Arena. "Every time they went on a little run and the crowd got loud, we did a good job staying composed and trusting our offensive sets.” Nembhard will be gone when the Bulldogs and Aztecs are in the Pac-12 together, but thinks "the rivalry will be great. This is a great program. I played them a couple of times at Creighton, and they always gave us a tough game. They have a great fan base, a great coach over there, and they play really hard. I think it’ll be a great rivalry to come.” ___ Get poll alerts and updates on the AP Top 25 throughout the season. Sign up here .

KINGSTON, Jamaica— Over 400 Jamaicans gathered in Kingston on Sunday for the Run for Rights 5K Walk and Run, an event organised by Jamaicans for Justice (JFJ). Marking JFJ’s 25th anniversary, the event aimed to raise awareness about critical human rights issues in Jamaica while fostering community solidarity. Participants wore colourful outfits representing key advocacy themes: blue for human rights, yellow for child rights, green for climate justice, and purple for victims of gender-based and domestic violence. The initiative underscored JFJ’s mission to create a Jamaica free from discrimination and violence. Speaking at the event, Kingston Mayor Andrew Swaby lauded JFJ’s efforts to promote justice and equality. “This initiative not only brings awareness to critical issues but also mobilises the community to take meaningful action,” said Mayor Swaby. JFJ’s Executive Director, Mikel Jackson, expressed gratitude to attendees, emphasising the significance of collective action. “Your presence here today shows the power of unity. Every step taken is a step toward raising awareness and a stronger sense of responsibility to protect the most vulnerable in our society,” she said. In a news release, JFJ highlighted significant milestones, including justice for Michael Gayle, a mentally ill man reportedly beaten to death by security forces. JFJ successfully brought the case to the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights (IACHR), resulting in a $3 million compensation for Gayle’s family. JFJ noted its ongoing advocacy in cases like those of Matthew Lee and Mario Deane. In 2023, the organisation documented 289 cases out of over 300 reports for closer monitoring. Beyond legal advocacy, JFJ has expanded its outreach programs, including mobile legal clinics for marginalised individuals and school-based interventions to prevent youth involvement in legal conflicts. While the primary goal of the Run for Rights was to raise awareness, any net proceeds will support JFJ’s legal and advocacy programs, JFJ said. As JFJ looks ahead, the organisation says it remains steadfast in advancing social justice and empowering vulnerable communities through education and advocacy.Unbeatable Deals on the Best Earphones Online

Klobuchar says she can't make a decision on Trump nominees without FBI background checksexpert valuer Hilary Kay encountered a supposed rowlock from one of RMS Titanic's 20 lifeboats during the latest episode. Brought to her by a lone gentleman at Beaumaris Castle, she was informed that he'd found the ornamented relic in the garage of the house he'd recently bought, with no proof of its authenticity. Although thrilled to see such a potentially historically significant piece infront of her, Kay regrettably cast it aside as a "mystery". "When I woke up this morning I can assure you I didn't expect to see this, which is a brass rowlock on a board which says 'TITANIC LIFEBOAT NO.3.' So I have to ask you, which member of your family was on the Titanic and obviously survived?" she said, to which the Roadshow guest explained the situation. "Uhh, none of us!" he replied. "We recently purchased a house in Llandudno last year and as we [were] sifting through the house we came across this in the corner of the garage really." Kay went on to reveal that this particular lifeboat could've held 65 passengers, yet only between 36 and 38 individuals were counted when the RMS Carpathia picked it up in the North Atlantic Ocean in 1912. The Titanic's lifeboats were subsequently transported to The White Star Pier in New York, where they remained for six months after the infamous maritime disaster before being dispersed. "Wouldn't it be wonderful if I could categorically say that this is from Lifeboat No.3 on the Titanic?" continued the specialist. "And if it was, we could be talking about in excess of £50,000 for value. "Although there's probably some fairydust sprinkled over it we can't say it for sure, so I'm afraid we've got to leave it out there as a mystery as to where it ultimately came from." Reacting to this interaction via social media platform X (formerly Twitter), one Antiques Roadshow fan : "It's not from the titanic, mate. Bin it." "Mass produced Titanic lifeboat item copy," . “If we could prove this was from the Titanic, it would be worth in excess of £50k, but we can’t. So it’s not” What a rollercoaster for that guy — Cath 🏴 (@Cathaclysmal) Bloke could be sitting on £50,000, could be a dud, coz they can't confirm if it was on a lifeboat from the Titanic — Jonsta (@Jonsta1990)
Mbappe On Target As Real Madrid Cruise To Leganes Win
KILLINGTON, Vt. (AP) — American skier Mikaela Shiffrin said she suffered an abrasion on her left hip and that something “stabbed” her when she crashed during her second run of a World Cup giant slalom race Saturday, doing a flip and sliding into the protective fencing. Shiffrin stayed down on the edge of the course for quite some time as the ski patrol attended to her. She was taken off the hill on a sled and waved to the cheering crowd before going to a clinic for evaluation. “Not really too much cause for concern at this point, I just can’t move,” she said later in a video posted on social media . “I have a pretty good abrasion and something stabbed me. ... I’m so sorry to scare everybody. It looks like all scans so far are clear.” She plans to skip the slalom race Sunday, writing on Instagram she will be “cheering from the sideline.” The 29-year-old was leading after the first run of the GS and charging for her 100th World Cup win. She was within sight of the finish line, five gates onto Killington’s steep finish pitch, when she an outside edge. She hit a gate and did a somersault before sliding into another gate. The fencing slowed her momentum as she came to an abrupt stop. Reigning Olympic GS champion Sara Hector of Sweden won in a combined time of 1 minute, 53.08 seconds. Zrinka Ljutic of Croatia was second and Swiss racer Camille Rast took third. The Americans saw Paula Moltzan and Nina O’Brien finish fifth and sixth. “It’s just so sad, of course, to see Mikaela crash like that and skiing so well,” Hector said on the broadcast after her win. “It breaks my heart and everybody else here.” The crash was a surprise for everyone. Shiffrin rarely DNFs — ski racing parlance for “did not finish.” In 274 World Cup starts, she DNF'd only 18 times. The last time she DNF'd in GS was January 2018. Shiffrin also has not suffered any devastating injuries. In her 14-year career, she has rehabbed only two on-hill injuries: a torn medial collateral ligament and bone bruising in her right knee in December 2015 and a sprained MCL and tibiofibular ligament in her left knee after a downhill crash in January 2024. Neither knee injury required surgery, and both times, Shiffrin was back to racing within two months. Saturday was shaping up to be a banner day for Shiffrin, who skied flawlessly in the first run and held a 0.32-second lead as she chased after her 100th World Cup win. Shiffrin, who grew up in both New Hampshire and Colorado and sharpened her skills at nearby Burke Mountain Academy, has long been a fan favorite. Shiffrin is driven not so much by wins but by arcing the perfect run. She has shattered so many records along the way. She passed Lindsey Vonn’s women’s mark of 82 World Cup victories on Jan. 24, 2023, during a giant slalom in Kronplatz, Italy. That March, Shiffrin broke Swedish great Ingemar Stenmark’s Alpine mark for most World Cup wins when she captured her 87th career race. To date, she has earned five overall World Cup titles, two Olympic gold medals — along with a silver — and seven world championships. In other FIS Alpine World Cup news, the Tremblant World Cup — two women’s giant slaloms at Quebec’s Mont-Tremblant scheduled for next weekend — were canceled. Killington got 21 inches of snow on Thanksgiving Day, but Tremblant — five hours north of Killington — had to cancel its races because of a lack of snow.

Fraud in the Digital Age: Why Shared Intelligence is the Key to Staying Ahead
Advertisement Over the past few years, fears about toxic and inflammatory "seed oil" have taken over the internet. Many experts dismiss this, saying studies show cooking with vegetable oil is good for you. What seed oil is actually doing in our diet is more complicated than either side lets on. In recent years, a war has been brewing over the fats we eat. Specifically, it's a fight over "seed oils." Are they as toxic as some health influencers believe? Robert F. Kennedy Jr, President-elect Trump's pick for Health and Human Services secretary , is a leading figure in the fight. He has a line of t-shirts, bumper stickers, and red hats dedicated to "make frying oil tallow again," arguing for places like McDonalds to go back to using beef fat. Advertisement Nutrition experts say the discourse around so-called seed oils stokes unnecessary fear, obscuring the truth about what is already well-established about how to eat to promote human health and longevity. Professor Richard Bazinet, who studies how fat fuels our brains at the University of Toronto, says online discourse about seed oils being the "root of all evil" has exploded since 2020. "People are coming out and saying, 'Hey, the government's lying to you,'" he told Business Insider. "Saturated fats are good for you. Seed oils are actually what's killing you, causing cancer." Advertisement Let's not get it twisted: butter is not the salve here. But the health benefits of seed oils are also murky. The seed oils under fire, aka 'the hateful 8' lacaosa/Getty Images For centuries, people around the world have used local oils, some of which could be classified as "seed oils," derived from mustard seeds and flaxseeds. None of those were bad for their health. These days, "seed oil" is more of a pejorative term than a technical definition, referring to oils high in omega-6 fatty acid, including: Advertisement Canola Corn Soybean Cottonseed Grapeseed Sunflower Safflower Rice bran Some influencers call them "the hateful eight." Do seed oils cause inflammation? Predrag Popovski/Getty Images Opponents of seed oils say that they are toxic and often recommend butter instead, which is rich in saturated fatty acids with only small amounts of omega-6. Advertisement Cardiologist Dariush Mozaffarian, director of the Food is Medicine Institute at Tufts University, told BI he has found no compelling evidence that seed oils are harmful. Mozaffarian has authored dozens of studies independently investigating how oils rich in omega-6 impact health issues like heart disease, stroke, and weight gain. He said he has found lots of evidence they're good for overall health, lowering type 2 diabetes rates, and improving cholesterol levels. But he still can't convince some of his "very smart" friends to agree with him on this, including some nutrition scientists who say the concerning trends linked to omega-6 can't be waved away. Advertisement A long-term study of Eastern European countries in the 1990s found that those who used "seed oils" with a higher concentration of omega-3 had fewer heart disease deaths than countries that went with oil richer in omega-6. One thing all researchers — including Mozaffarian — agree upon is that we need a healthy balance of the two essential fatty acids: omega-3 and omega-6. These days, we do not get enough omega-3. There are clear trends showing that less omega-3 and more omega-6 in the diet is associated with more obesity , and operates on pathways in the brain that can encourage more eating, and tell the gut to store more fat. Studies link high omega-6 intake with more chronic pain, overeating , and potential mood issues while new research on omega-3 suggests supplementation can improve satiety and keep cognitive function going strong in old age. Advertisement Several scientists who've studied dietary fats at the National Institutes of Health told BI the internet's focus on specific oils obscures a deeper issue: omega-6 is infused in the American food system in myriad ways, distorting the nutrient density of what we eat. From processed foods at the gas station, to seemingly innocent, seed oil-free items like chicken eggs, our nutrition equation has been thrown completely off balance. Related stories Baked into the fabric of the modern American diet Westend61/Getty Images A century ago, consumption of omega-6 fatty acids was less than 3% of our total calories. Advertisement That changed after World War II, when new technology made it possible to mass-produce new kinds of monounsaturated vegetable oils from plants rich in omega-6. Canada invented canola, and many cooks swapped out dangerous trans fats for this cheaper, more accessible oil. Food producers also started making ultra-processed foods with things like canola oil or corn oil. Suddenly, our modern eating era was born. There were some holdouts: McDonald's didn't stop using beef tallow until around 1990, but as vegetarianism and veganism became more popular, "seed" oils became the default inoffensive, dirt-cheap choice to manufacture, fry, and cook food for the masses. Advertisement Today, omega-6 accounts for roughly 10% to 20% of calories in the average American diet, which is dependent on a backbone of soy and corn. It's unavoidable in our food system, and it's in prepared foods at higher concentrations than ever. It's in everything: corn chips, peanut butter, farmed salmon, even today's grilled chicken is higher in omega-6 than it used to be. Getting enough omega-3 to balance this all out would be a tall order. Advertisement "We have a river of oils flowing through the food supply," psychiatrist and nutritional neuroscientist Joseph Hibbeln said. Hibbeln is an expert in lipid biochemistry and brain health, and studied dietary fat at the National Institutes of Health for nearly three decades. He has seen through his research how these oils increase appetite, and change people's taste preferences so food companies can drive up sales. "It doesn't have to be a conspiracy, it's just: you sell more food." Traditional Mediterranean diets, the favorite eating plan of most dieticians and nutrition buffs, had about a 1:1 ratio of omega-3's to omega-6's by default. There was plenty of olive oil, high in omega-9, but also a good amount of omega-3 fatty acids from foods like fatty fish, walnuts, and flaxseeds. Advertisement Still, Dr. Artemis Simopoulos, former chair of the nutrition coordinating committee at the National Institutes of Health, says demonizing "seed oils" misses the point. If most of your diet is ultra-processed, it doesn't matter what your McDonald's french fries are cooked in. "This was a problem that was created by agriculture and food industry," Simopoulos told Business Insider. This is not dissimilar from Mozaffarian's common refrain whenever anyone asks him if they should switch to avocado oil or beef tallow to prevent inflammation. Advertisement "There are things that are way more important for you than to even think about seed oils," Mozaffarian said. "I want people to be avoiding super processed foods and to be avoiding refined flours and sugars." What does this mean for the food industry? Canola oil producers have been changing the composition of their product, swapping out more omega-6 for omega-9. Stuart Walmsley/Getty Images New alternatives to deep fryer "seed oils" are popping up, and gaining traction. Take Zero Acre, an oil company developing monounsaturated oils made from fermented sugar cane. The company has investment from Chipotle, is used in the restaurants of Michelin-starred chefs , and had a collaboration with Shake Shack. Advertisement The oil industry is already bracing for a change in public sentiment, and not just with independent alternatives like Zero Acre. Simopoulos has consulted for giant food companies like Nestlé and is working with farmers in China to plant more traditional camellia trees for cooking oil, since it's rich in omega-3. She and Bazinet, the University of Toronto researcher, both said big food giants are pivoting away from using omega-6-heavy oils, favoring omega-9, which is nonessential and doesn't compete with omega-3. "Things are totally changing, and the sooner the better," she said. Advertisement Don't let fears about 'seed oil' derail a healthy diet Mediterranean diets, rich in whole grains, vegetables, and olive oil, are a favorite eating plan of nutrition buffs. vaaseenaa/Getty Images US health authorities speak in broad terms about nutrition, without diving too deep into the chemical and molecular differences between different fat sources. They don't make any scientific distinction between seed oils and other unsaturated fat sources, and they don't talk much about the importance of balancing essential fatty acids. Their unwavering focus is on prioritizing "healthy fats" in the American diet, like omega-3 from salmon, and cutting out butter, which is linked to heart disease. That general messaging doesn't sit well with seed oil skeptics, who are mistrustful of the health system and crave clarity on how manufactured food impacts our health. It leaves no room to acknowledge that maybe vegetable oil isn't the greatest ingredient around. Advertisement Bazinet said, while the jury is still out on seed oils, some people may want to take extra precautions. Smokers, who are already under extra inflammatory stress, could perhaps be at elevated risk of health issues from consuming seed oils since their blood won't have as much capacity to oxidize fats. For most people, the same advice you've heard for decades still holds true. Eat a diet rich in whole grains, nuts, and vegetables. These polyphenol powerhouses are dream nutrients for your body. Prioritize olive oil — it's low on omega-6 but high in nonessential omega-9, and great for inflammation and brain health. Routinely add in foods that are rich in omega-3, like chia seeds, flax, or fatty fish. Advertisement Because here's the thing: If you avoid processed foods that are loaded with sugar, calories, and yes, probably have "seed" oil in them too, all nutritionists would consider that a win.
