wolfy luck casino Fans Divided Over Toni Breidinger's Full-Time 2025 NASCAR Seat

NORTH SOUND, Antigua (AP) — Bangladesh avoided the follow-on but trailed West Indies by 181 runs with one wicket remaining at stumps Sunday on the third day of the first test. When bad light stopped play at 5:14 p.m. local time, the tourists were 269-9, replying to West Indies’ first-innings total of 450-9 declared. Taskin Ahmed was 11 not out and Shoriful Islam was on 5 when the umpires ruled the light was too poor to continue. The last pair endured some hostile bowling from Alzarri Joseph in fading light in the last few overs before stumps. Taskin, especially, was Joseph's target and the pair exchanged words on several occasions. Joseph finished the day with 3-69 from 25 overs. Justin Greaves followed his maiden century in West Indies' innings with career-best figures of 2-34 and Jayden Seales took 2-42. “I think (the pitch) was a bit slow today but I think we bowled well as a unit,” Joseph said. “We still have a lead of 181 so tomorrow we're just going to try to get the last wicket as soon as we can and put a score on the board.” Mominul Haque and Jaker Ali made half centuries at the top and lower down the order which held together the Bangladesh innings. Mominul made a dogged 50 from 116 balls at No. 3, sharing partnerships of 45 with Shahadat Hossain (18) and 62 with Litton Das (40). After posting his 21st half century in tests, Mominul was out next ball. Jaker, batting at No. 7, reached his second half century in as many tests from 85 balls. He was out for 53 with the total 246-8. Taskin and Hasan Mahmud saw Bangladesh past the follow-on target with eight wickets down in the 93rd over, then Shoriful joined with Taskin for three overs to see out the day. For most of the day, Bangladesh made slow and cautious progress with only sporadic bursts of accelerated scoring. There was a period of brisk scoring at the start of the second session and again by Taijul Islam (25) when the second new ball was taken at 196-6 after 80 overs. Resuming at 40-2, Bangladesh reached 50 after 26 overs, added 65 runs for the loss of one wicket in the first session and 60 for the loss of two wickets in the second. West Indies applied the squeeze at times during the second session, keeping runs down and putting the batters under pressure. Between the 51st and 61st overs, Bangladesh added only 10 runs for the loss of Litton's wicket. West Indies bowled with discipline throughout a day in which 78 overs were bowled and seven wickets fell. ___ AP cricket:

Former New Orleans priest convicted of raping teen boy dies while serving life sentenceRenuka Rayasam | (TNS) KFF Health News In April, just 12 weeks into her pregnancy, Kathleen Clark was standing at the receptionist window of her OB-GYN’s office when she was asked to pay $960, the total the office estimated she would owe after she delivered. Clark, 39, was shocked that she was asked to pay that amount during this second prenatal visit. Normally, patients receive the bill after insurance has paid its part, and for pregnant women that’s usually only when the pregnancy ends. It would be months before the office filed the claim with her health insurer. Clark said she felt stuck. The Cleveland, Tennessee, obstetrics practice was affiliated with a birthing center where she wanted to deliver. Plus, she and her husband had been wanting to have a baby for a long time. And Clark was emotional, because just weeks earlier her mother had died. “You’re standing there at the window, and there’s people all around, and you’re trying to be really nice,” recalled Clark, through tears. “So, I paid it.” On online baby message boards and other social media forums , pregnant women say they are being asked by their providers to pay out-of-pocket fees earlier than expected. The practice is legal, but patient advocacy groups call it unethical. Medical providers argue that asking for payment up front ensures they get compensated for their services. How frequently this happens is hard to track because it is considered a private transaction between the provider and the patient. Therefore, the payments are not recorded in insurance claims data and are not studied by researchers. Patients, medical billing experts, and patient advocates say the billing practice causes unexpected anxiety at a time of already heightened stress and financial pressure. Estimates can sometimes be higher than what a patient might ultimately owe and force people to fight for refunds if they miscarry or the amount paid was higher than the final bill. Up-front payments also create hurdles for women who may want to switch providers if they are unhappy with their care. In some cases, they may cause women to forgo prenatal care altogether, especially in places where few other maternity care options exist. It’s “holding their treatment hostage,” said Caitlin Donovan, a senior director at the Patient Advocate Foundation . Medical billing and women’s health experts believe OB-GYN offices adopted the practice to manage the high cost of maternity care and the way it is billed for in the U.S. When a pregnancy ends, OB-GYNs typically file a single insurance claim for routine prenatal care, labor, delivery, and, often, postpartum care. That practice of bundling all maternity care into one billing code began three decades ago, said Lisa Satterfield, senior director of health and payment policy at the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists . But such bundled billing has become outdated, she said. Previously, pregnant patients had been subject to copayments for each prenatal visit, which might lead them to skip crucial appointments to save money. But the Affordable Care Act now requires all commercial insurers to fully cover certain prenatal services. Plus, it’s become more common for pregnant women to switch providers, or have different providers handle prenatal care, labor, and delivery — especially in rural areas where patient transfers are common. Some providers say prepayments allow them to spread out one-time payments over the course of the pregnancy to ensure that they are compensated for the care they do provide, even if they don’t ultimately deliver the baby. “You have people who, unfortunately, are not getting paid for the work that they do,” said Pamela Boatner, who works as a midwife in a Georgia hospital. While she believes women should receive pregnancy care regardless of their ability to pay, she also understands that some providers want to make sure their bill isn’t ignored after the baby is delivered. New parents might be overloaded with hospital bills and the costs of caring for a new child, and they may lack income if a parent isn’t working, Boatner said. In the U.S., having a baby can be expensive. People who obtain health insurance through large employers pay an average of nearly $3,000 out-of-pocket for pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum care, according to the Peterson-KFF Health System Tracker . In addition, many people are opting for high-deductible health insurance plans, leaving them to shoulder a larger share of the costs. Of the 100 million U.S. people with health care debt, 12% attribute at least some of it to maternity care, according to a 2022 KFF poll . Families need time to save money for the high costs of pregnancy, childbirth, and child care, especially if they lack paid maternity leave, said Joy Burkhard , CEO of the Policy Center for Maternal Mental Health, a Los Angeles-based policy think tank. Asking them to prepay “is another gut punch,” she said. “What if you don’t have the money? Do you put it on credit cards and hope your credit card goes through?” Calculating the final costs of childbirth depends on multiple factors, such as the timing of the pregnancy , plan benefits, and health complications, said Erin Duffy , a health policy researcher at the University of Southern California’s Schaeffer Center for Health Policy and Economics. The final bill for the patient is unclear until a health plan decides how much of the claim it will cover, she said. But sometimes the option to wait for the insurer is taken away. During Jamie Daw’s first pregnancy in 2020, her OB-GYN accepted her refusal to pay in advance because Daw wanted to see the final bill. But in 2023, during her second pregnancy, a private midwifery practice in New York told her that since she had a high-deductible plan, it was mandatory to pay $2,000 spread out with monthly payments. Daw, a health policy researcher at Columbia University, delivered in September 2023 and got a refund check that November for $640 to cover the difference between the estimate and the final bill. “I study health insurance,” she said. “But, as most of us know, it’s so complicated when you’re really living it.” While the Affordable Care Act requires insurers to cover some prenatal services, it doesn’t prohibit providers from sending their final bill to patients early. It would be a challenge politically and practically for state and federal governments to attempt to regulate the timing of the payment request, said Sabrina Corlette , a co-director of the Center on Health Insurance Reforms at Georgetown University. Medical lobbying groups are powerful and contracts between insurers and medical providers are proprietary. Because of the legal gray area, Lacy Marshall , an insurance broker at Rapha Health and Life in Texas, advises clients to ask their insurer if they can refuse to prepay their deductible. Some insurance plans prohibit providers in their network from requiring payment up front. If the insurer says they can refuse to pay up front, Marshall said, she tells clients to get established with a practice before declining to pay, so that the provider can’t refuse treatment.

Kennedy Jr.’s claims Clark said she met her insurance deductible after paying for genetic testing, extra ultrasounds, and other services out of her health care flexible spending account. Then she called her OB-GYN’s office and asked for a refund. “I got my spine back,” said Clark, who had previously worked at a health insurer and a medical office. She got an initial check for about half the $960 she originally paid. In August, Clark was sent to the hospital after her blood pressure spiked. A high-risk pregnancy specialist — not her original OB-GYN practice — delivered her son, Peter, prematurely via emergency cesarean section at 30 weeks. It was only after she resolved most of the bills from the delivery that she received the rest of her refund from the other OB-GYN practice. This final check came in October, just days after Clark brought Peter home from the hospital, and after multiple calls to the office. She said it all added stress to an already stressful period. “Why am I having to pay the price as a patient?” she said. “I’m just trying to have a baby.” ©2024 KFF Health News.

Trump vows tariffs on China, Mexico, Canada that may spike commodity prices

Noodles and wine are the secret ingredients for a strange new twist in China's doping sagaJohn Elway: remorse over bypassing Josh Allen in draft mitigated by watching Broncos rookie Bo Nix

The Gunners delivered the statement Champions League victory their manager had demanded to bounce back from a narrow defeat at Inter Milan last time out. Goals from Gabriel Martinelli, Kai Havertz, Gabriel Magalhaes, Bukayo Saka and Leandro Trossard got their continental campaign back on track, lifting them to seventh place with 10 points in the new-look 36-team table. It was Arsenal’s biggest away win in the Champions League since beating Inter by the same scoreline in 2003. “For sure, especially against opposition we played at their home who have not lost a game in 18 months – they have been in top form here – so to play with the level, the determination, the purpose and the fluidity we showed today, I am very pleased,” said Arteta. “The team played with so much courage, because they are so good. When I’m watching them live they are so good! They were all exceptional today. It was a big performance, a big win and we are really happy. “The performance was there a few times when we have played big teams. That’s the level that we have to be able to cope and you have to make it happen, and that creates belief.” A memorable victory also ended Sporting’s unbeaten start to the season, a streak of 17 wins and one draw, the vast majority of which prompted Manchester United to prise away head coach Ruben Amorim. The Gunners took the lead after only seven minutes when Martinelli tucked in Jurrien Timber’s cross, and Saka teed up Havertz for a tap-in to double the advantage. Arsenal added a third on the stroke of half-time, Gabriel charging in to head Declan Rice’s corner into the back of the net. To rub salt in the wound, the Brazilian defender mimicked Viktor Gyokeres’ hands-over-his-face goal celebration. That may have wound Sporting up as they came out after the interval meaning business, and they pulled one back after David Raya tipped Hidemasa Morita’s shot behind, with Goncalo Inacio netting at the near post from the corner. But when Martin Odegaard’s darting run into the area was halted by Ousmane Diomande’s foul, Saka tucked away the penalty. Substitute Trossard added the fifth with eight minutes remaining, heading in the rebound after Mikel Merino’s shot was saved. A miserable night for prolific Sporting striker Gyokeres was summed up when his late shot crashed back off the post.Sophie Hediger, a member of Switzerland's snowboard cross team at the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics, has died following an avalanche at a mountain resort, the country's skiing federation said on Tuesday.

Tulsa fires coach Kevin Wilson a day after blowout loss to South Florida

Incoming Trump 'border czar' Tom Homan opens up about efforts to combat migrant crime on 'Jesse Watters Primetime.' Arizona’s top law enforcement officer said in a recent interview she is unafraid to stand up to President-elect Trump on immigration enforcement. Democratic Attorney General Kris Mayes told the U.K.'s Guardian any plans to construct deportation centers, which she previously called "concentration camps," in the Grand Canyon State would be a nonstarter. Mayes defended Dreamers, beneficiaries of the Obama-era DACA program, saying any federal attempts to send them to their home countries would be "a bright red line for me." "I will not stand for an attempt to deport them or undermine them," Mayes said. "I will do everything I can legally to fight [family separation or construction of deportation camps]. MD MAYOR PUSHING IMMIGRANT LEGAL ADVOCACY FUND TO REBUFF TRUMP AGENDA President Trump and Thomas Homan, acting director of Immigration and Customs Enforcement, talk during a law enforcement roundtable on sanctuary cities in the Roosevelt Room at the White House March 20, 2018, in Washington, D.C. (Jabin Botsford/The Washington Post via Getty Images) "Not on our soil." The Dreamer moniker originates from the DREAM Act — Development, Relief and Education for Alien Minors. It was first proposed by Sen. Richard Durbin, D-Ill., and the late Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, in 2001 and has been reintroduced in several succeeding sessions of Congress by Durbin but has never become law. Most recently, it was proposed in 2023 by Durbin and his Republican counterpart in Senate Judiciary Committee leadership, Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina. Former President Obama borrowed pieces of the legislation when he instituted DACA, the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program. Trump previously tried to get rid of DACA but was stopped by the Supreme Court in DHS v. University of California. MARYLAND GOVERNOR DEFENDS $190K TRUMP-CENTRIC CONSULTANT CONTRACT AS PRESIDENT-ELECT MOVES IN NEXT DOOR "I think the Supreme Court will ultimately see the merits of protecting them," Mayes said of Dreamers. "We want to give the courts the opportunity to make the right decision here, and we’ll be making very strong arguments on that proposition." In previous comments reported by the Arizona Mirror, Mayes said the issue with mass deportation proposals from people like Trump and "border czar"-designate Tom Homan is that they can lead to abuses of the system.

Franklin, File) In the Guardian interview, Mayes credited near-complete border-state cooperation on the matter of immigration. New Mexico Attorney General Raúl Torrez, California Attorney General Rob Bonta and Mayes are "united," she said, adding Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton is the one border state lawman who is not. "[W]e are going to fight for due process and for individual rights," she said of herself, Torrez and Bonta. Mayes also acknowledged the fentanyl crisis and a porous border, saying Arizonans rightly want it rectified. She reportedly said more federal resources should be spent on additional Border Patrol and prosecutions of cartel-connected people, as opposed to Trump’s idea of using the National Guard to help deport illegal immigrants . "[W]hen Arizonans voted for Donald Trump, they did not vote to shred the Arizona and U.S. Constitution [and] I strongly believe that," she told the Guardian. Fox News Digital reached out to Team Trump and some members of Arizona’s Republican congressional delegation for comment on Mayes’ Guardian interview but did not receive a response by press time.

Matt Gaetz says he won't return to Congress next year after withdrawing name for attorney generalFlorida has long boomed economically from three revenue sources — farming, real estate, tourism. Now, local leaders would like to add the ocean to that list. Florida is launching a new Office of Ocean Economy, which aims to make the state a major contender in a “blue economy” race that is well underway in other states and countries. Some of that development is already happening here in South Florida, and backers hope the initiative will make the Sunshine State a global leader in water-driven innovation. State Rep. Kelly Skidmore, D-Boca Raton, who co-sponsored the bill that created the office with state Rep. Chip LaMarca, R-Lighthouse Point, and state Sen. Jason Pizzo, D-Sunny Isles Beach, said that the goal is to connect the dots of the blue economy in Florida so everyone can benefit. Those dots include academic research, innovation, technology, funding, branding, and the ocean itself. According to the bill, the office is charged with: — Connecting the state’s ocean resources to economic development with a focus on sustainable practices.— Connecting the state’s universities and transforming innovative technology into functional businesses.— Developing a pipeline for innovation to be commercialized and financed.— Branding the state globally as a leader in the ocean economy.— Reporting the economic benefits the office has generated, as well as emerging ocean economy innovations, each August. “We need the next Gatorade to come out of the ocean,” said LaMarca at a recent Florida Ocean Alliance event at the Coral Ridge Yacht Club in Fort Lauderdale. LaMarca’s Gatorade reference was a nod to researchers at the University of Florida, who in 1965 developed the sports drink — and created an industry — because they were concerned that UF athletes were sweating out too many electrolytes in the Florida heat. “There’s plenty of great research being done now,” LaMarca said. “What we want to do is take what’s in a research project and what is on the shelf and bring possible products to market.” Funding for the initiative will come from the state, and the office will be housed at Florida Atlantic University and led by Colin Polsky, founding director of FAU’s School of Environmental, Coastal, and Ocean Sustainability. Polsky said that some current examples of the ocean economy include aquaculture, commercial fishing and recreation (SCUBA businesses, fishing guides). But given that Florida has 8,436-mile coastline, high-level research institutions seeking solutions to climate change, and access to the power of tides and the Gulf Stream, there’s much more that can be done. Central to the initiative is the fact that Florida is on the front lines of climate change and sea-level rise. As the region develops solutions, and those solutions can be turned into businesses that the rest of the world can use. Polsky said that startups could emerge around topics such as hydroelectric power from both tides and the Gulf Stream, innovative ways to protect shorelines through both designed structures and developing coral reefs that are better adapted to high heat conditions. He used other regions as examples of blue economy leadership. “Denmark is the global leader in offshore wind technology development,” Polsky said. China has ramped up production, but the know-how came from a place — Denmark, Polsky said. Related Articles “Same thing with the Netherlands with flood control. They’ve been doing that for 500 years. Humanity has always been trying to manage risk in coastal zones. Places that do it well, export it.” Polsky said that efforts in this first fiscal year would start with a statewide listening tour to ascertain what ocean economy ventures have been attempted, what needs to continue and not to continue. His team will also develop reports on local gross domestic product associated with different parts of the ocean economy, and map that analysis across the state. They will then look at employment trends, define the status quo and model how local economies might perform under different economic forces. “Then we can incorporate ideas from all around the state about different opportunities, avenues, levers, mechanisms for improving the ocean economy,” he said. Florida is not alone in the blue economy race. Skidmore said the Sunshine State is competing with Rhode Island, San Diego, Mississippi and several institutes around Boston. Globally she said Portugal, Scotland, Norway and others are making headway. “They’re really killing it in this space. So we do have some catch up we need to do,” she said. “But if Florida can lead the U.S. ... then we can compete around the world.” In 10 years, LaMarca envisions an intellectual pipeline. “My hope is that every smart young research student that’s doing work at our universities has the opportunity to take something ... to bring a project to market and be able to monetize that,” he said. LaMarca previously worked on legislation in Florida that allowed student athletes to profit from the use of their name, image and likeness, and said he thinks there’s a parallel to students in science fields. “They should be able to take what they’re learning, and if they can bring something to market, benefit off of it, not only for themselves, but for the universities.” Though the Office of Ocean Economy is new, water-focused businesses and research in South Florida is well underway. Here are some examples: Reef deployment: The Ocean Rescue Alliance International , a nonprofit that works with cities such as Hollywood, deploys artificial coral reefs that protect the shoreline, provide habitat for marine life and offer diving opportunities. ORAI has developed a Coral Lok system to make planting coral more efficient. Their base structures have slots for screws. Divers can simply screw in corals growing on threaded plugs. Reefs as protection: The University of Miami’s X-REEFS project , funded in part by the Department of Defense, is developing hybrid reefs that both protect the human world from waves and reap the ecological benefits of a coral reef. Key to building the artificial reefs are modular structures called SEAHIVEs, hexagonal concrete pieces designed with holes that optimally disrupt wave energy and invite marine life to make a home. UM is also attempting to breed corals that can withstand marine heat waves and disease. These corals could be planted on the artificial reef structures and add mass to the reef over time, even as seas rise. Aquaculture : New aquaculture ventures are launching. This month, Everglades Oysters seeded their first batch of oysters. The farm sits just north of Chokoloskee near the 10,000 Islands and Everglades National Park. They plan to eventually harvest with a new technology called FlipFarm, which allows farmers to easily flip oyster cages, keeping the bivalves healthy. Building better seawalls: Miami-based Kind Designs , backed in part by Mark Cuban, uses 3D printing to produce what they call Living Seawalls, which replace flat seawalls with a rippled wall that emulates the nooks and crannies of a coral reef or mangrove roots. Sea life thrives, and the walls break up wave energy instead of reflecting it back into the estuary, where it can damage shorelines. They also offer Kind Tiles, that do much the same thing. Finding a southern seaweed: The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration recently gave a $250,000 grant to the University of Florida to investigate seaweed aquaculture in Florida’s tropical waters. Though most seaweed aquaculture is done in cold water, UF hopes to identify warm-water seaweed species and kick-start an industry that both boosts Florida’s economy and benefits its environment. Potential uses include seaweed as a replacement for some plastic packaging, nutritional supplements, animal feed, cosmetics and biofuels Seagrass and oyster restoration: Winter Garden-based Sea & Shoreline restores ecosystems. Much of their business is a reaction to harmful algae blooms that snuff out seagrass meadows and pummel ecosystems. They replant and maintain seagrass areas to boost local economies via ecotourism and fishing opportunities. They also build living shorelines to help marine life and protect human properties, and restore oyster reefs, which filter pollutants. Climate change and nutrient runoff make each of these a growth industry. Harnessing the Gulf Stream: The United States Department of Energy recently awarded FAU an $800,000 grant to study how to harness the vast power of the Gulf Stream, which flows a few miles off shore. DOE studies have previously calculated that the Florida section of this immense ocean current could produces as much energy as three nuclear power plants. The FUA feasibility study will conduct ocean current tests off of Palm Beach County, where the Gulf Stream cuts close to land. Bill Kearney covers the environment, the outdoors and tropical weather.

Verstappen still manages to win 4th straight F1 title in one of worst seasons of his Red Bull career LAS VEGAS (AP) — Max Verstappen won an unbelievable 19 races last season that included an incredible streak of 10 in a row in what would arguably go down as one of the greatest years in Formula 1 history. And yet it is this year’s eight-win season — his lowest victory total since 2020 — that Verstappen considers a career-defining campaign. Those eight wins were enough to win him a fourth consecutive F1 championship on Saturday night with his easy drive at the Las Vegas Grand Prix. The championship made Verstappen only the sixth driver in F1 history to win four or more titles. Maverick McNealy birdies the last hole at Sea Island to finally become PGA Tour winner ST.

Berger and Henrik Norlander moved into the top 125 to keep full PGA Tour cards for next year. Clanton continued to show his promise. It was his second runner-up finish and fourth top 10 this year.

AP Business SummaryBrief at 1:12 p.m. ESTBiodesix director Jack Schuler buys $122,840 in stockThitikul finishes eagle-birdie to win CME Group Tour Championship and claim record $4M prizeThe Gunners delivered the statement Champions League victory their manager had demanded to bounce back from a narrow defeat at Inter Milan last time out. Goals from Gabriel Martinelli, Kai Havertz, Gabriel Magalhaes, Bukayo Saka and Leandro Trossard got their continental campaign back on track, lifting them to seventh place with 10 points in the new-look 36-team table. It was Arsenal’s biggest away win in the Champions League since beating Inter by the same scoreline in 2003. “For sure, especially against opposition we played at their home who have not lost a game in 18 months – they have been in top form here – so to play with the level, the determination, the purpose and the fluidity we showed today, I am very pleased,” said Arteta. “The team played with so much courage, because they are so good. When I’m watching them live they are so good! They were all exceptional today. It was a big performance, a big win and we are really happy. “The performance was there a few times when we have played big teams. That’s the level that we have to be able to cope and you have to make it happen, and that creates belief.” A memorable victory also ended Sporting’s unbeaten start to the season, a streak of 17 wins and one draw, the vast majority of which prompted Manchester United to prise away head coach Ruben Amorim. The Gunners took the lead after only seven minutes when Martinelli tucked in Jurrien Timber’s cross, and Saka teed up Havertz for a tap-in to double the advantage. Arsenal added a third on the stroke of half-time, Gabriel charging in to head Declan Rice’s corner into the back of the net. To rub salt in the wound, the Brazilian defender mimicked Viktor Gyokeres’ hands-over-his-face goal celebration. That may have wound Sporting up as they came out after the interval meaning business, and they pulled one back after David Raya tipped Hidemasa Morita’s shot behind, with Goncalo Inacio netting at the near post from the corner. But when Martin Odegaard’s darting run into the area was halted by Ousmane Diomande’s foul, Saka tucked away the penalty. Substitute Trossard added the fifth with eight minutes remaining, heading in the rebound after Mikel Merino’s shot was saved. A miserable night for prolific Sporting striker Gyokeres was summed up when his late shot crashed back off the post.
