The institution the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) conditionally approved on Aug. 14 cannot take deposits and cannot make a loan. It has no employees, no capital, and no opening date. If it fails to raise $20 million within 12 months, or fails to open within 18 months, the approval expires on its own terms. None of that is the interesting part.
The interesting part is the document, Corporate Decision #1385 , filed under OCC control number 2026-Charter-344521, grants preliminary conditional approval to World Liberty Trust Company, National ******* ociation, of Bay Harbor Islands, Florida, a limited-purpose national trust bank connected to World Liberty Financial, the crypto venture whose co-founders include Eric Trump, Donald Trump Jr., and Barron Trump. And before it grants anything, the letter sets out, in the regulator's own words, every objection that was filed against it.

BOSTON — The Arizona Diamondbacks made one last move ahead of their series against the Boston Red Sox, placing All-Star Ketel Marte on the restricted list and calling up infielder Jose Fernandez.

The move comes after the team made several changes earlier Monday, reinstating right-hander Justin Martinez and Jordan Lawlar from the injured list and optioning Geraldo Carrillo and Tyler Locklear. Marte's move, however, was unexpected.
According to Arizona Central's Nick Piecoro, Marte's placement is due to an undisclosed reason. At the same time, MLB.com's Steve Gilbert reports that the second baseman didn't show up to Fenway Park as the team hoped to be there before game time.
Players placed on the restricted list are those who become unavailable due to unexpected personal, legal or non-baseball reasons.

Martin Odegaard believes the physical setbacks he endured during the previous campaign have ultimately helped him develop greater resilience.
The midfielder lifted the Premier League trophy in May—his first piece of silverware since joining ***** nal in 2021—though his individual campaign was frequently disrupted on a personal level by knee, shoulder and muscle problems.
Restricted to just 16 starts in the league, the Norwegian missed the Carabao Cup final defeat against Manchester City, a result ***** nal reversed on Sunday with a 3-0 win in the Community Shield.
"Last year was really a big struggle with a lot of difficult moments," Odegaard said after capping a standout performance in Cardiff with his first goal for the club since December.
"It is the worst thing for a footballer to not be able to be on the pitch and I had quite a lot of weird injuries, and bad luck.

Two-time Tour de France winner Jonas Vingegaard will miss the rest of season as he continues his recovery from a broken collarbone sustained in this year's race.
On stage 15, the 29-year-old Visma-Lease a Bike rider was tackling a tight right-hand bend off a roundabout when his front wheel slid out, causing him to land on his shoulder.
The injury required surgery and ruled the Dane out of challenging for a third Tour victory, with Tadej Pogacar going on to win a record equalling fifth yellow jersey.
Vingegaard will be absent from September's UCI Road World Championships in Montreal, Canada, when Pogacar will go for a third straight world ******* le.
"After a long and intense racing period, a recovery period was planned after the Tour de France anyway," Vingegaard said.

Colts special teams coordinator Brian Mason will be working from a new spot for the rest of the preseason.
Mason tore multiple ligaments in his knee when he was involved in a sideline collision during the team's first preseason game and has been working at the team's practices using a large brace. Head coach Shane Steichen indicated that he is passing on having surgery for now, but the team will have him coach from a booth upstairs for their two remaining games this summer.
"He's pretty tough," Steichen said, via Joel A. Erickson of the Indianapolis Star. "Obviously, he's back out here in a brace. I think, right now, he's going to let that thing heal. He has some serious injuries, which is wild, but he's going to be up in the box for these next two preseason games, just for precautionary reasons."
Steichen said that Mason wants to remain on the sideline, but the head coach feels there's too much risk to have that happen in the next few weeks.

Motorsport is a dangerous game. It always has been, and it always will be. Thankfully, over the last two to three decades, deaths in racing have been mercifully low. Yet some crashes, as horrific as they are, can change the sport forever, as did one back in ****** an in 1998.
YouTuber Josh Revell recently covered the crash in a brilliant video. It took place at Fuji Speedway in 1998, with the series being the All ****** an Grand Touring Car Championship. The series today is known as Super GT.
It was, and still is, one of the premier sports car racing series in the world. But in 1998, the round at Fuji Speedway, held in the shadow of Mount Fuji, was to take place in horrible weather conditions. And we mean horrible. It was wet, misty, and visibility was at a premium.
Racing that day was Tetsuya Ota, a driver who had become Ferrari's main man in ****** an. He had started racing slightly later in life, but soon made a name for himself in sports car racing. Yet on this day in 1998, his life was about to change forever.
Ota had a slow-burning career, but after racing in Formula ****** an 1600, Formula 3, and ****** an F3000, he eventually began to make a name for himself in sports car racing. He became a factory driver for Mazda and would soon begin driving for Ferrari. By the mid-1990s, he was their main driver in ****** an and Maranello's highest-regarded driver in the country.

Bayern Munich is not perfect when it comes to financial decision-making. The club has made expensive transfers, handed out massive contract extensions and, at times, allowed its fixed-term deposit reserves to shrink considerably per Tz journalists Philipp Kessler and Mano Bonk (as captured by iMiaSanMia_GER).
What might separate Bayern Munich from many of its European competitors, however, is what happens when the club recognizes that its spending trajectory could become a problem. Simply put, Bayern Munich does not double-down — it changes course.
According to Tz, that is exactly what happened after several expensive transfers and contract extensions significantly reduced Bayern Munich's fixed-term deposit account. Rather than continuing to spend at the same pace, the club's decision-makers embarked on a strict austerity course.
It is debatable on just how much the reserves were hurting (also, do not forget that Bayern Munich is rumored to have another reserve it can call upon as well), but certainly it is possible that some deals strained the club financially.
That is an important part to all of this, though, is understanding how Bayern Munich operates financially. The club is willing to spend when it believes an investment makes sense, but it is also willing to alter plans when the numbers start pointing in the wrong direction. That discipline is particularly important now because Bayern Munich is entering a period of significant investment.

The Belgian forward arrived from Royal Antwerp for £4.5million last summer after being pursued by Celtic for more than a year, but has managed just 398 minutes of football despite being fit throughout the campaign.
Signed during Brendan Rodgers' final transfer window, Balikwisha struggled for opportunities under the former Hoops boss and Wilfried Nancy before again finding himself on the fringes under Martin O'Neill.
After some involvement during pre-season, the 24-year-old appears to have slipped back down the pecking order and interest is now emerging from across Europe.
According to Belgian journalist Sacha Tavolieri, the race for Balikwisha remains "wide open", with Bundesliga side SV Elversberg, Italian outfit Monza and Swiss giants Basel among the clubs interested.
The report describes Balikwisha as "a casualty of Martin O'Neill's tactical approach", although his lack of football predates O'Neill's return.

The Jacksonville Jaguars' Trevor Lawrence appeared just once in Dan Orlovsky's ranking of NFL quarterbacks by traits.
Highlighting seven different quarterback traits -- arm strength, ball placement, mechanics, decision-making, pocket presence, second-reaction creativity and rushing ability -- Orlovsky ranked the top 10 quarterbacks in each category.
Lawrence's lone top 10 appearance came in the pocket presence category, coming in at No. 10, highlighting his ability to feel pressure, stay upright, and maneuver around the pocket as needed.
Despite Lawrence only making the top 10 once, he was mentioned by Orlovsky in four other categories as a player who was just one on the outside looking in, including arm strength.
"The one quarterback I really wanted to get into the top 10 was Trevor Lawrence," Orlovsky wrote. "He also has some underrated arm talent and makes difficult throws look easy."

The Tallahassee-Leon Babe Ruth 14U All-Stars came up short in their bid to repeat as World Series champions, but not before delivering another memorable run on the national stage.
Leading the way was first baseman Robert Quinn, who turned in one of the tournament's most impressive performances. Quinn blasted two grand slams Saturday, Aug. 15, powering TLBR to a 14-1 victory over Pennsylvania and securing a third-place finish at the Babe Ruth 14U World Series in Eagle Pass, Texas.
TLBR entered the eight-team championship bracket as the tournament's No. 1 seed but suffered an 8-6 extra-inning loss to California in Friday's semifinal round.
The All-Stars finished the World Series with a 6-1 record and closed their postseason journey at 14-1 overall, including state, regional and World Series play.
Quinn's production in Eagle Pass was extraordinary. The left-handed slugger went 12-for-23 with three doubles, two triples, three home runs and 23 RBIs during the tournament.

Pete Crow-Armstrong went on a podcast last week and said with a laugh he likes the theory that Babe Ruth never existed. Baseball's internet treated it like a confession.
"This is gonna be crazy," the Cubs center fielder told Kristin Cavallari on her show "Let's Be Honest." Then he brought up the theory that the sport's greatest player may never have existed. He picked up the theory from Tayler Saucedo, a Mariners pitcher at the time, who floated it on a podcast in 2024 because he had barely seen any video of Ruth playing. Saucedo said this was a discussion in the Mariners bullpen and that they also decided that Ted Williams' legendary 500-foot home run never happened either.
Crow-Armstrong piled on Ruth saying the game has changed so much since then that pitchers back then might as well have been throwing underhand.
Then everybody lost it. One site used the quote to worry about American public education. Another brought up the plague of misinformation. A bunch of them criticized the young Cubs outfielder. It raised eyebrows and ruffled feathers! That's a lot of coverage for a 24-year-old answering a question about an unpopular opinion on a podcast hosted by somebody from "Laguna Beach."

Cricket is a team game: Vaibhav Sooryavanshi reveals fathers lesson on missed centuries

Vaibhav Sooryavanshi has been the undisputed breakout star of IPL 2026. The 15-year-old Rajasthan Royals sensation currently leads the Orange Cap race with 680 runs in 15 matches and has lit up the tournament with a series of record-shattering performances. Yet, despite his remarkable season, he has narrowly missed out on what many believe would have been well-deserved centuries.

Twice this season, Sooryavanshi found himself in the nineties, only to fall short because of his unwavering commitment to the team's cause. Rather than slowing down to secure personal milestones, the teenager continued to play his natural attacking game, putting the team's needs ahead of individual records.

Explaining his mindset on JioStar, Sooryavanshi revealed the lesson his father taught him from a young age.

"Since childhood, my father has always told me that if you score a hundred, a double hundred, or even a triple hundred, but the team does not win because of it, then those runs hold no value. They may only be for your personal record, but they do not benefit the team,'' Vaibhav Sooryavanshi said.
131385642
"Cricket, in the end, is a team game. So, if I score 80 instead of a hundred and my team wins, and if we still do not win despite me scoring a century, then that 80 means more to me than the hundred," he added.

"The longer my team stays in the tournament and the deeper we go into the playoffs and finals, the more chances I will get to score hundreds and achieve whatever records I want to break. So, it benefits both me personally and the team as well,'' Vaibhav concluded.

His selfless approach was on full display during the IPL 2026 Eliminator against Sunrisers Hyderabad. Batting on a breathtaking 97 off just 28 **** , Sooryavanshi was only one boundary away from breaking Chris Gayle's record for the fastest century in IPL history. Instead of playing it safe and taking a single, he attempted an audacious upper-cut off Praful Hinge. Spotting a fielder late, he tried to adjust the shot but mistimed it, eventually getting caught at deep third man on the 29th ball.

Earlier in the season against Lucknow Super Giants, he produced another sensational innings, smashing 93 off just 38 deliveries. The left-hander tore apart the LSG attack with seven fours and ten towering sixes at a staggering strike rate of 244.73, guiding Rajasthan Royals to a dominant victory before falling short of a century once again.
