Sofia Tsarsitalidou remains one of the most watched young long jumpers in Greece, but the 2026 World U20 Championships came and went without her in the pit. The 19-year-old from Ptolemaida, born 17 August 2007 and competing for Aiolos Ptolemaidas, still has a personal best of 6.25 metres from the Alexandrinó meeting in Alexandria, Imathia, on 24 May. That jump remains her listed World Athletics best and was the mark that first put her over the World U20 qualifying standard....
PA Sen. John Fetterman's RNC video is best read as a strategic signal in a fragmented two-party system, not as a conversion event. It is an attempt to re-position a senator whose electoral coalition and intra-party standing have diverged. The incentive structure. Fetterman still votes with Senate Democrats on the large majority of roll calls. That is the cheap talk constraint: switching parties would forfeit committee leverage, the possibility of being the pivotal 51st vote...
At 930 Montana Ave, the latest outpost of the Venice-born smash-burger favorite opened with the kind of energy that turns a sidewalk into a social event. The line snakes out the door most days. It is the living punchline to Yogi Berra's old line: nobody goes there anymore, it's too crowded. People go anyway. They wait. Then they eat. Then they talk about coming back. This is the seventh-ish Southern California location, and the prices travel with the brand. A cheeseburger...

Women's pole vault has long combined extreme athleticism with a visual spectacle that cameras love. Over two decades, a handful of vaulters have drawn extra attention for how they look in photos and videos as well as how high they clear the bar. The most durable example is Allison Stokke. Others-Yelena Isinbayeva, Clara Fernández, Alysha Newman, Molly Caudery, and Polina Knoroz-have also become household names among fans who follow the event for both performance and...
19: A 27-year-old researcher just told America the robots are coming for us. Dave Rubin's argument is simpler: the warning may be real enough to debate, but the rollout looks staged. Jacob Coxon quit Anthropic this week and posted that OpenAI and Anthropic are "racing straight to self-improving superintelligence and gambling with our lives." The people building the systems, he wrote, "earnestly believe that it could kill us all by the end of the decade." The thread blew...
