By BARBARA ORTUTAY, AP Technology Writer Nearly half of American teenagers say they are online “constantly” despite concerns about the effects of social media and smartphones on their mental health, according to a new report published Thursday by the Pew Research Center. As in past years, YouTube was the single most popular platform teenagers used — 90% said they watched videos on the site, down slightly from 95% in 2022. Nearly three-quarters said they visit YouTube every day. There was a slight downward trend in several popular apps teens used. For instance, 63% of teens said they used TikTok, down from 67% and Snapchat slipped to 55% from 59%. This small decline could be due to pandemic-era restrictions easing up and kids having more time to see friends in person, but it’s not enough to be truly meaningful . X saw the biggest decline among teenage users. Only 17% of teenagers said they use X, down from 23% in 2022, the year Elon Musk bought the platform. Reddit held steady at 14%. About 6% of teenagers said they use Threads, Meta’s answer to X that launched in 2023. The report comes as countries around the world are grappling with how to handle the effects of social media on young people’s well-being. Australia recently passed a law banning kids under 16 from social networks, though it’s unclear how it will be able to enforce the age limit — and whether it will come with unintended consequences such as isolating vulnerable kids from their peers.

Pew also asked kids how often they use various online platforms. Small but significant numbers said they are on them “almost constantly.” For YouTube, 15% reported constant use, for TikTok, 16% and for Snapchat, 13%. As in previous surveys, girls were more likely to use TikTok almost constantly while boys gravitated to YouTube. There was no meaningful gender difference in the use of Snapchat, Instagram and Facebook. Roughly a quarter of Black and Hispanic teens said they visit TikTok almost constantly, compared with just 8% of white teenagers. The report was based on a survey of 1,391 U.S. teens ages 13 to 17 conducted from Sept. 18 to Oct. 10, 2024.None

The expanded Big Ten is poised to be a major player in this season's College Football Playoff. The 18-team conference had three of the top-four teams in the AP poll this week — No. 1 Oregon, No. 2 Ohio State and No. 4 Penn State. A one-loss Indiana team is ranked 10th but is still very much a contender to make the playoff, given how many Southeastern Conference teams have three defeats or more. Indiana's rise has been perhaps the Big Ten's biggest story this season. Much of the spotlight was on newcomers Oregon, Southern California, UCLA and Washington, but aside from the top-ranked Ducks, that foursome has struggled to impress. Meanwhile, the Hoosiers won their first 10 games under new coach Curt Cignetti before losing at Ohio State last weekend. Oregon beat Ohio State 32-31 back in October, and if the Buckeyes beat rival Michigan this weekend, they'll earn a rematch with the Ducks for the Big Ten title. People are also reading... And it's entirely possible another matchup between those two teams awaits in the CFP. Star power Dillon Gabriel has quarterbacked Oregon to an unbeaten record, throwing for 3,066 yards and 22 touchdowns in 11 games. But don't overlook Iowa's Kaleb Johnson and his 21 rushing TDs, and quarterback Kurtis Rourke has been a big part of Indiana's improvement. Penn State's Abdul Carter has eight sacks and two forced fumbles and could be one of the top edge rushers drafted this year. Going bowling Oregon (11-0, 8-0), Ohio State (10-1, 7-1), Penn State (10-1, 7-1), Indiana (10-1, 7-1), Illinois (8-3, 5-3), Iowa (7-4, 5-3), Michigan (6-5, 4-4), Minnesota (6-5, 4-4), Washington (6-5, 4-4), Southern California (6-5, 4-5), Nebraska (6-5, 3-5) and Rutgers (6-5, 3-5) have already reached the six-win mark for bowl eligibility. Michigan State (5-6, 3-5) and Wisconsin (5-6, 3-5) can join them. Hot seats There may not be many firings in general at the top level of college football. The prospect of sharing revenue with athletes in the future might lead schools to be more judicious about shedding one coach and hiring a new one. Who should be most worried in the Big Ten? Well, Lincoln Riley is struggling to stay above .500 in his third season at USC. Purdue is 1-10, but coach Ryan Walters is only in his second season. Maryland's Mike Locksley has been there six years and his Terrapins are 4-7, but this was his first real step backward after guiding the team to three straight bowl wins. Cignetti has shown it is possible for a coaching change to push a previously moribund program to some impressive heights in a short amount of time — but the improvement has been more incremental at Michigan State following Jonathan Smith's arrival. Sherrone Moore wasn't a completely unknown commodity at Michigan after he won some massive games in place of a suspended Jim Harbaugh last year. But in his first season completely at the helm, the Wolverines have declined significantly following their national title a season ago. Youth movement The Big Ten is home to one of the most dynamic freshmen in the country in Ohio State receiver Jeremiah Smith. He has 52 catches for 899 yards and nine touchdowns. Highly touted quarterback Dylan Raiola has teamed up with fellow freshman Jacory Barney (49 catches) to lead Nebraska to bowl eligibility. Recruiting watch Ohio State is on track to land the Big Ten's top class, according to 247 Sports, but the big news recently was quarterback Bryce Underwood flipping from LSU to Michigan. If the Wolverines do in fact keep Underwood in his home state, that would be a big development for Moore. Get local news delivered to your inbox!

Pat Riley spoke out loud and clear about Jimmy Butler's NBA futureEnron, the notorious Texas energy company the collapsed after one of the largest corporate frauds in US history, resurfaced Monday — as part of an elaborate prank by the brand’s new owner. “We’re back. Can we talk?” blared a promotional video baring Enron’s logo that was posted to X on the 23rd anniversary of the company filing for bankruptcy. “In the modern world, you must accept change is the only constant. Learn how to adapt. Forgive,” the video said. “To allow change to happen in the world and within ourselves. We understand this better than anyone and we’re here to lead by example.” The video — which featured a ballerina dancing on the beach, a boxer sparring in the ring and a farmer working in the fields — turned out to be a parody backed by a T-shirt company. Trademark documents show an Arkansas-based LLC called The College Company bought the Enron trademark for $275 in 2020. The College Company’s co-founder, Connor Gaydos, also created Birds Aren’t Real along with Peter McIndoe. The mock conspiracy theory suggests birds are drones created by the government as surveillance tools — a joke that pokes fun at conspiracy theories themselves, and sells tons of “Birds Aren’t Real”-branded T-shirts to Gen Zers. CNN first reported Enron’s new owners. Enron did not comment on an inquiry about its current owners, though a certificate of incorporation for Enron Corporation obtained by The Post was filed earlier this year in Delaware. Reddit users were quick to speculate that the new Enron’s marketing efforts – including a billboard in Houston, Texas, where the original company was headquartered – are a lead-up to an Enron crypto token. In a press release, the company hinted at its future involvement in cryptocurrency, touting “permissionless innovation” as one of its key pillars moving forward. “Decentralized technology is advancing, and we will of course have a role to play in its future,” the company said in a statement. A seven-day-long banner on the Enron website counts down to the seconds on a “very special” announcement due next week. For now, the scheme is an elaborate prank to sell Enron-branded T-shirts, sweatshirts, “Dad hats” and water bottles from the shiny new Enron website. The new Enron is certainly leaning into the company name’s scandalous history, listing one of its core values as “repentant.” “Acknowledging and taking responsibility for past mistakes isn’t merely for show – it reflects our commitment to ethical practices moving forward,” the company said. Enron’s infamous collapse in 2001 led to executives, including Kenneth Lay and Jeffrey Skilling, getting prosecuted for fraud-related crimes. An independent review published in 2002 revealed how they had pocketed millions from off-the-book schemes and lied to shareholders about the company’s profits. Lay died of a heart attack in 2006 while he was awaiting sentencing. Skilling was released from federal custody in 2019 after serving 12 years in prison for conspiracy, insider trading, making false statements to auditors and securities fraud. Enron had also encouraged its employees to invest in the company stock just before it went belly-up, causing some workers to lose not only their jobs, but their life’s savings. The workers later won $85 million in a class action settlement. Trouble began to brew at Enron in August 2001, when Sharron Watkins, then a vice president at the company, discovered the accounting scandal and told Lay, then Enron’s chief executive. In October of that year, Enron reported a massive third-quarter loss of $618 million and revealed it had been inflating its earnings since 1997. Later that month, the company disclosed it was under investigation by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The next month, the company announced a $9 billion acquisition by Dynegy, a rival energy firm. But weeks later, Dynegy said it had terminated the talks. Enron filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection at the end of the year and by January 2002, the US Department of Justice had opened a criminal investigation into Enron’s demise.Christopher Nolan on ‘Interstellar’s’ cosmic success 10 years later
