Candace Cameron Bure was pretty as a picture at her daughter's baby shower. Natasha Perry, daughter of the "Fuller House" star and former NHL All-Star forward, Valeri Bure, announced that she was expecting a baby with her husband, Bradley Steven Perry, in May 2026. To celebrate the arrival of their newborn, the Bure family and friends held a shower for Natasha on August 16, 2026 that looked as fun and joyful as could be. Perhaps best of all was the grandma-to-be Candace Cameron Bure, who stunned in a yellow, brown, and red striped dress.

Cameron Bure's look was a delightful contrast to the dreamy pastel tones surrounding her pregnant daughter. While Natasha looked like a goddess in her off-the-shoulder gown, the "Fuller House" star looked modern and playful wearing an asymmetrical neckline and white platform mules. The stylish outfit was further complemented by her cosmopolitan bob and gold, statement earrings. It was all the proof we need that grandmother style doesn't have to be frumpy.
Even more special was how well the looks perfectly complemented each other. Once upon a time, Cameron Bure and her daughter, Natasha, twinned in inappropriate wedding guest dresses, causing a huge stir. But at the baby shower, things were completely different. Instead, she and her daughter struck the perfect balance on such a sweet and sentimental day.

Fifty-four percent of U.S. households saved no money last month, EY-Parthenon found in a survey, highlighting how the rising price for gasoline and other goods is undermining consumers' buying power.
One out of five households spent more than it earned and tapped debt or savings to cover expenses, EY-Parthenon said. Seventy-two percent of consumers identified dining out, apparel, beauty and personal care, and other discretionary categories as candidates for spending cuts.
"Many households are maintaining stability through spending trade-offs, delayed purchases and the use of savings or debt," Mark Chambers, the retail sector leader for EY Americas, said in a statement, while noting consumers' "resilience."
Consumers are altering their outlays to cope with persistent price pressures. Inflation rose 3.4% on an annual basis last month after increasing 3.5% in June, even as energy prices during July fell 1.5%, the Bureau of Labor Statistics said Wednesday.

A female journalist who previously worked under CBS News' chief correspondent Matt Gutman is accusing him of making things uncomfortable at work with his "sexualized" remarks, according to a lawsuit filed against ABC News and obtained by People and Variety.
Samira Said, who worked as a field producer at ABC News' Los Angeles bureau from 2021 to 2025, filed the complaint in the Los Angeles Superior Court on Friday. In the suit, she alleges wrongful termination by ABC after being denied medical leave and accommodations for her medical conditions on several occasions.

There's a special anniversary coming up on August 28: It'll be 12 years since Barack Obama wore a tan suit to a press conference at the White House, creating a sartorial stir that has since become an ongoing joke about what generated controversy back then vs. the chaos of today.
What's a mystery is just what happened to the suit. The Chicago Sun-Times and its former Washington bureau chief Lynn Sweet are launching "Pursuit of the Suit," an effort to track down just what happened to the outfit.

In a recent post, The Athletic talked about who they believe is the most intriguing newcomer for all of the teams in the Power Four. Newcomer can mean any player that they picked up out of high school or the transfer portal, or any coach they nabbed on the carousel. While most Rutgers fans likely would have named new defensive coordinator Travis Johansen as the team's most intriguing addition, The Athletic chose another direction.
They chose to name former Tulsa EDGE J'Dan Burenett as the Scarlet Knights' most intriguing newcomer, pointing out his ability to make plays in the backfield as the reason for it.
"This is Burnett's third stop in as many seasons after he played at Louisiana Tech in 2024 and Tulsa in 2025. He earned second-team All-American Conference honors last year after recording 6.5 sacks and 9.5 TFLs," said Antonio Morales, writer of the post.
It has been some time since Rutgers has had a truly consistent pass rusher. There is a possibility that Burnett could be the answer to that; however, his stats at the lower level don't necessarily jump off the page. Rutgers did add several defensive line pieces in the portal overall, so there is a possibility that the overall improvement of the defensive line gives Burnett what he needs to be successful, but that seems to be a reach given what we know now.
It is a surprise that Johansen was not the name called here, given that he is taking over a defense that set records for poor performance last season. On top of that, he has a proven track record of building defenses at the lower level, so seeing what he can do to the Knights' defense in year one is definitely intriguing, to say the least. It is unreasonable to expect a complete turnaround in one season; however, a good leap forward from where they were is still on the table. How much they improve is one of the most intriguing things about the team next season, and Johansen is the architect behind that.

Lake Powell, the second-largest reservoir in the United States, provides water and electricity to millions in the West. It has now has shrunk to its lowest level on record, in the latest sign of the alarming crisis unfolding on the drought-stricken Colorado River.
The reservoir's levels dropped to 3519.91 feet on Saturday, breaking the record low of 3,519.92 feet set in April 2023, according to data from the US Bureau of Reclamation published Sunday. It is now just under 30 feet away from the point at which its dam will no longer be able to generate hydropower.
The record comes nine days after downstream Lake Mead, the US's biggest reservoir, dropped to its lowest level since it was first filled nine decades ago. "We are in uncharted territory," said Jack Schmidt, director of the Center for Colorado River Studies at Utah State University.
Lakes Mead and Powell, which are essentially one gigantic reservoir separated by the Grand Canyon, hold just under 60% of the total water currently stored in the Colorado River basin. The unprecedented decline of these vast bodies of water, which have been shrinking for more than 20 years, drives home the perilous state of the river that feeds them.
Known as the lifeblood of the Southwest, the Colorado River starts in the Rocky Mountains, fed by melting snowpack, and ends in the Gulf of California in Mexico. It provides water to roughly 40 million people and irrigates more than 5 million acres of farmland across seven states: California, Arizona, Nevada, New Mexico, Wyoming, Colorado and Utah.

A Virginia man's anti-police license plate is at the center of what could be a landmark First Amendment case, following a federal appeals court ruling in his favor last month.
Virginia motorist Curtis M. Whateley says he has a free speech right to keep his customized license plate, which reads "FTP&ATF," an abbreviation that foul-mouthed puzzle-solvers will decipher as "Fuck the police and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms." The State of Virginia argues that it has the right to revoke Whateley's plate because license plates are government-owned, not a public soapbox. The state says it's going to take its case to the Supreme Court.
The case highlights a niche, often amusing, but still consequential issue in First Amendment law: whether a vanity license plate is private or government speech.
The U.S. Supreme Court ruled in 2015 that Texas could deny a group's application for a specialty license plate design showing the Confederate flag. Most U.S. district courts and state courts interpreting the decision have held that, while government-run vanity plate programs are a nonpublic forum, the specific character combination of the plate is private speech, which restricts the government from censorship based on viewpoint.
But until the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 4th Circuit issued an opinion on Whateley's case on July 31, no federal appeals court had ruled on the matter, according to the American Civil Liberties Union of Virginia (ACLU-VA), which is representing Whateley. The three-judge panel unanimously found Virginia's personalized license plate messages are private speech subject to First Amendment protection.

Nearly half of workers say they've recently changed jobs or plan to within six months, but many remain stuck.
Nearly half of applicants say they've massaged their materials—mostly by omission, not fabrication—as competition has ramped up for scarce openings.
Job searching has become a daily habit for many American workers. Landing a new job, though, remains the hard part.
That's according to FlexJobs' State of the Job Search Report, which shows the low-hire, low-fire labor market continues to frustrate the many workers itching to move on. Nearly half of workers said they recently changed jobs or plan to within six months. More than half said they search for openings every day.
Government data on job turnover tells the other half of the story. The quits rate held at 2.0% in June, and employers hired at a rate of just 3.4%, both near their weakest levels in years, the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) reported last week.

Aug 13 (Reuters) - The Los Angeles County sheriff's department agreed to speed up licensing for people who want to carry concealed ‌weapons, to settle a U.S. government lawsuit accusing it of systematically ‌and unconstitutionally denying Californians' Second Amendment rights.
A settlement of the U.S. Department of Justice's lawsuit was filed on Thursday in Los Angeles federal court, and requires a judge's approval. The sheriff did not admit wrongdoing in agreeing to settle.
While Republican President Donald Trump's administration is regularly at odds with officials in Democratic-led California, ‌its lawsuit last September ⁠focused more on bureaucracy issues than policy differences.
Los Angeles officials were accused of violating citizens' right to bear arms ⁠by typically waiting nine months to review license applications, and sometimes more than two years to interview applicants.
According to the complaint, the sheriff received 3,982 applications for new concealed carry licenses between January 2024 and March 2025 but approved ‌just two.

WASHINGTON, Aug 14 (Reuters) - U.S. business inventories were unchanged in June as an increase in stocks at wholesalers was ‌offset by a decline at retailers, reflecting strong domestic demand ‌in the second quarter.
The flat reading in inventories followed a 0.4% rise in May, the Commerce Department's Census Bureau said on Friday. Economists polled by Reuters had forecast inventories, a key component of gross domestic product and one of the most volatile, edging up 0.1% in June.
Inventories ‌increased 3.0% year-on-year in June.
Business ⁠inventories have been drawn down for five straight quarters amid robust domestic demand, a mix of consumer ⁠spending and business investment tied to artificial intelligence.
They subtracted from gross domestic product growth in the second quarter. The economy grew at a 1.5% annualized rate last quarter, though domestic demand increased at its fastest ‌pace in more than three years.

NEW YORK (AP) — Late mob boss John Gotti 's reality TV star grandson has reported to federal prison after trying to stave off his sentence on fraud charges by saying he was going to donate a kidney to his ailing mother, Victoria Gotti.
The Federal Bureau of Prisons confirmed Tuesday that Carmine Agnello began his 15-month prison term the previous day at the Federal Correctional Institution Fairton in southern New Jersey.
Agnello, who starred on " Growing Up Gotti " in the mid-2000s, was originally scheduled to report to prison in July. But U.S. District Court Judge Nusrat Choudhury agreed to delay that until Sept. 18, saying it would allow enough time to recover from the surgery, presuming that happened by Aug. 10 as Agnello suggested
Agnello's lawyers have said in court filings that Victoria Gotti, the daughter of the former head of New York's Gambino crime family, suffers from chronic kidney disease.
On Monday, though, with no operation in sight, Choudhury ordered Agnello to surrender immediately to federal authorities.

Wall Street is increasingly betting the latest jobs report will take a Fed rate hike off the table and give stocks room to climb.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics' July labor market report showed the economy lost 23,000 jobs, far short of expectations. The unemployment rate fell to 4.1% as labor force participation dropped to a near-pandemic low.
"The report suggests that the economy is seemingly slipping back toward the 'no hire, no fire' narrative that characterized the labor market through much of 2025," said Jim Baird, chief investment officer with Plante Moran Financial Advisors, in a note on Friday.
The latest report shows the three-month rolling average of job gains has fallen to just 20,000, while the six-month average has declined to a weak 44,000, noted Ameriprise chief economist Russell Price.
"There were many moving parts, but very little to like about this report," said Price on Friday. "If the job market falters, consumers and the economy might not be far behind."

Scooping ice cream, lifeguarding swimming pools, and restocking retail stores during the summer has long been teenagers' rite of passage. For most, it's the first time they build real-world skills and earn their own pocket change. But now, teens are up against the worst summer job market since the Great Recession. Landing a job at the back of a mom-and-pop shop feels almost as hard as scoring a full-time corporate role.
"I didn't know it was going to be this hard. I thought it was going to be quite easy. And with all the applications I sent through, I feel a bit discouraged," Simon Chow, a 17-year-old who spent months applying to dozens of summer gigs, tells Fortune. "I'm looking everywhere, and I'll take anything at this point."
Around 790,000 jobs in May, June, and July of this year opened up for teenagers—down from around 801,000 gigs from 2025—according to a recent report from Challenger, Gray & Christmas. And if the study's prediction plays out, this stretch of summer would mark the lowest teen hiring since 1948, when the Bureau of Labor Statistics began tracking the data. Beyond the previous year, the only other time this figure dropped to a low this concerning was in 2010 (960,000), when the U.S. was reeling from the Great Recession.
Now, teenagers are having to get crafty to land their minimum-wage summer gigs. Like many job seekers, they're playing the numbers game, sending out dozens of applications only to be ghosted. Others are employing the old-fashioned strategy deployed by their parents, strutting up to storefronts with resume in hand and elevator pitch memorized. And after months of searching, some tough realities have become clear: landing a seasonal job in this market can require connections, experience, and the guts to put themselves out there.
Teenagers across the U.S., Canada, and the U.K., tell Fortune this year's summer job market has been miserable—but some are finding a way in.

There are dozens and dozens of not only great players, but phenomenal players in the history of the NFL. Bryan DeArdo of CBS Sports recently published his list of the top 100 players in NFL history. Cincinnati Bengals great Anthony Munoz landed at No. 19, being proclaimed as the best left tackle in NFL history.
To understand how big of a feat that is, let's take a look at some of the previous Bengals before and after Munoz, as well as other players Munoz landed in front of on the list.
On the Bengals side, you're looking at players like Ken Anderson, Ken Riley, Boomer Esiason, Chad Johnson, A.J. Green, Corey Dillon, James Brooks and Tim Krumrie, with a dozen more to list.
Now, league-wide, Munoz landed in front of Marcus Allen, Steve Van Buren, Troy Aikman, Bart Starr, Forrest Gregg and Mike Ditka, to name a few.
Munoz, a Hall of Famer and Bengals Ring of Honor member, is considered one of the best linemen in NFL history. He was the third overall pick by the Bengals in the 1980 NFL Draft, though it was considered a risky move at the time with his injury history.

WASHINGTON, Aug 4 (Reuters) - A top supervision examiner at the U.S. Consumer Financial Protection Bureau warned staff they would face "most unpleasant" consequences if they were too aggressive in their oversight of financial firms, according to an internal email reviewed by Reuters.
The threat, which Reuters is reporting for the ‌first time, was emailed on May 13 by Chief Examiner Fatima Batie to many of the agency's mid-level supervision staff as they were preparing to resume inspections of financial firms ‌following a long hiatus, according to the email and two people familiar with the matter.
Critics say the message amounts to a threat to CFPB staff that would likely make them think twice about how they interact with companies they oversee.

Sean "Diddy" Combs is now expected to remain in federal prison nearly one month longer than his most recent projected release date.
Federal Bureau of Prisons records list the 56-year-old music mogul's release from FCI Fort Dix in New Jersey as February 20th, 2028. His previous projection was January 24th, 2028, a difference of 27 days.
The agency has not explained the change or connected it to Combs' reported July altercation with another inmate. Bureau of Prisons release dates are projections and can change as sentence calculations, earned credits and other factors are reviewed.
Combs is serving a 50-month sentence after a federal jury convicted him of two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution. Jurors acquitted him of racketeering conspiracy and two ******* -trafficking charges.
Combs' projected release date has changed several times since he began serving his sentence. Bureau of Prisons records had listed February 23rd, 2028, as his expected release before the date moved forward to January 24th. PEOPLE reported that earlier versions of his federal record included April 15th, April 25th and June 4th, 2028.

Sean "P Diddy" Combs' release date has been pushed back once again.
According to the records of the Federal Bureau of Prisons, the Last Night rapper, 56, won't be released from prison until February 20, 2028, a month after his last release date.
Just last month, his prison sentence was shortened to January 24. However, a recent altercation seems to have affected his release.
TMZ shared Combs got physical with an inmate a few weeks ago after he was reportedly dissed. Prison staff had to separate the men. The rapper was then placed in solitary confinement.
The change to his release date marks the sixth time it has been moved since a New York jury convicted him of transporting prostitutes across state lines for drug-fueled ******* parties. Just two months after the verdict was announced in July 2025, Combs' legal team began pleading for a short sentence.

WASHINGTON, Aug 3 (Reuters) - The U.S. State Department has notified Congress that it plans to close five foreign missions in a rare downsizing of America's global diplomatic footprint, according ‌to people familiar with the notice.
In the notice sent to some congressional committees late last week, the State ‌Department said it planned to close its posts in St. George's, Grenada; Nagoya, ****** an; Medan, Indonesia; Douala, Cameroon; and Winnipeg, Canada. The people familiar with the notice spoke on the condition of anonymity because the notice was not public.
The expected closures, which have not been previously reported, represent a rare example of the U.S. closing multiple foreign missions in a downsizing that is not tied to a particular geopolitical event.
Early last year, during the opening months of the Trump administration, the State Department began preparations to shut down nearly ‌a dozen foreign missions, Reuters and other ⁠media outlets reported at the time, as part of a broader push by the Republican president to transform the U.S. bureaucracy so that it is fully aligned with his "America First" agenda.

WASHINGTON (AP) — An ******* ociation of thousands of FBI agents and other groups are backing a lawsuit filed by three bureau employees who were fired last year for their roles in an investigation into President Donald Trump's efforts to undo the results of the 2020 presidential election.
A legal brief by the FBI Agents ******* ociation is one of five filed by outside parties in the last week in support of the agents, who were terminated as part of a broader personnel purge by FBI Director Kash Patel that has targeted employees who investigated Trump or are perceived as being against the administration's interest.
Taken together, the filings, including from former FBI and Justice Department alumni, underscore a concerted and bipartisan pushback to the waves of terminations that have roiled the FBI in the last year and a half as Patel has sought to remake the bureau in his own image.
The briefs argue that the firings were illegal because the agents were denied due process and punished for perceived political affiliation, and say the terminations contradict decades of expectations that the bureau's "apolitical, professional career corps of agents" can work on sensitive cases without putting their careers at risk.
"The Bureau simply cannot function if individual Special Agents must choose whether to accept a lawful ******* ignment that could later get them fired, or alternatively to reject it and become subject to firing for insubordination. FBI Special Agents have long understood that they are subject to ******* ignment and reassignment at any time based on the needs of the Bureau," the agents ******* ociation, which serves nearly 12,000 members, wrote in its brief.

WAPAKONETA — The second day of the 174th Auglaize County Fair found 4-H families at the Horse Arena for the annual Horse and Pony Show, with competitions kicking off at 9 a.m. and continuing late into the evening.
The Junior Fair showcases and competitions are organized by the Auglaize County Junior Fair Board, comprised of local youth in a 4-H club, vocational agricultural or family and consumer science group, Junior Grange, Boy Scouts or Girl Scouts units or Farm Bureau Youth Council.
Monday's exhibition was organized by Horse Chair Ollie Chisholf, 18, a member of the Buckeye Beavers 4-H Club in St. Marys.
"This is the pleasure show for the junior fair horses," he explained. "A lot of people know the horse shows for the speed and the barrels and the poles, but this is showmanship, horsemanship."
Pleasure shows evaluate a horse's disposition, gait and manners, or how "pleasureable" they are to ride. 4-H members ages 6 through 18 demonstrated their showmanship and control over their horses by guiding them through a series of intricate "patterns."

Catalina White is determined to keep her eyes on the prize as her divorce from Chris "CT" Tamburello, star of the reality TV shows, makes its way through the courts.
White filed for divorce on January 9, 2026, just over a year after the couple secretly married. In an interview with Where Is The Buzz, White declined to comment on the reasons for her decision.
"I genuinely wish Chris nothing but the best," White said. "Out of respect for the legal process and for everyone involved, I'm not going to discuss the details of our relationship or the divorce."
She stressed that she has already built her own career that allows her to sustain herself.
"What I will say is that I'm grateful to have built my own career and to be able to support myself independently," White said. "I've worked incredibly hard for what I have, and I'm proud of that. This has never been about money for me. My focus is simply on moving forward, continuing to build my business, being there for my family, and embracing the next chapter of my life with positivity."

WESTFIELD — Every member of the Colts' brain trust, from Indianapolis principal owner Carlie Irsay-Gordon to general manager Chris Ballard to head coach Shane Steichen, has opened their comments at training camp this week by singing the praises of Grand Park and the city of Westfield.
Words that remain a little bittersweet this year.
The Colts are in the eighth and final year they will hold training camp at Grand Park, preparing to move training camp back to the Indiana Farm Bureau Football Center on West 56th next summer.
"It was a tough decision to come to, because as I said, Grand Park has been a great host," Irsay-Gordon said. "It wasn't a financial decision, it was really more about the operational efficiency and making sure our team can prepare to perform on game day."
The Colts initially paid the city of Westfield $653,000 to host training camp at Grand Park for 10 years.

Liverpool's summer had appeared to offer a familiar pathway for Ifeanyi Ndukwe, a gentle introduction, a period of ***** sment, then a decision once the season had found its shape. Instead, bureaucracy has intervened before football could. The club's plans for the young centre-back have been redrawn, and a loan now looks the most immediate route for his development.
Ndukwe, 18, arrived from Austria Wien with the profile of a player to be cultivated carefully. He has already left a favourable impression during pre-season, stepping in early for Joe Gomez in the 4-2 win over Sunderland and then completing the full 90 minutes in the 1-0 victory over Wrexham. Those were small glimpses rather than definitive statements, but they were enough to suggest composure, physical presence and the sort of adaptability Liverpool value in young defenders.
The original intention had been for Ndukwe to remain on Merseyside through at least the first half of the campaign. That would have allowed Liverpool to measure his progress within the senior environment before deciding whether regular football elsewhere was required. Yet the inability to secure a visa has changed the sequence.
His representative, Georg Lederer, explained the background in clear terms speaking to ORF: "The fact is that in the 2025/26 Premier League season, clubs had two exception spots where they didn't have to reach this points target. In the new season, this extra rule will be reduced by one spot.
"A loan club will now be found where Ifeanyi can gain playing experience at a very high level."

Online, Millennials are declaring open revolt against their aging Boomer parents. In actual households across America, they're already doing the caregiving anyway—unpaid, exhausted, and often broke.
A three-year-old Reddit thread from r/BoomersBeingFools went viral again this month, with millions relating to a poster who wrote: "Not an issue, we refuse to take care of you. Old folks home it will be." The post was originally written in response to a Vox article warning Millennials were unprepared for a coming elder-care crisis, and its resurgence this July coincided with the symbolic milestone of the first Boomers turning 80.
As the Wall Street Journal reported, citing demographer William Frey of the Brookings Institution, roughly 4 million Baby Boomers will hit that age this year, the first wave of a 76 million-strong generation. Commenters piled on with grievances about housing costs, student debt, and a dismantled social safety net, arguing their refusal to provide care is simply "a consequence" of decisions Boomers made.
It reads like generational war. But the data shows something quite different is actually happening in most American homes.
Far from opting out, Millennials are quietly becoming a caregiving generation almost by default. According to a Population Reference Bureau fact sheet, the number of family caregivers ****** isting older adults grew 32% between 2011 and 2022, rising from 18.2 million to 24.1 million, and adult children remain the single largest category of family caregiver in America, at 40.7%.

The Turner Building Cost Index rose 5.2% year over year in the second quarter, providing further evidence that construction costs are increasing on an annual basis, even as monthly numbers offered a momentary reprieve.
The construction cost yardstick from New York City-based Turner Construction, the industry's largest contractor by revenue, increased 1.4% from the first quarter as high-growth sectors drove demand for both labor and materials, according to a July 24 news release.
"Demand remains strongest in data centers, semiconductors, advanced manufacturing, and mission-critical facilities, particularly in the Midwest and Southeast," Attilio Rivetti, Turner's vice president responsible for compiling the index, said in the release. "The industry's biggest challenge continues to be the availability of skilled Mechanical and Electrical labor."
Monthly costs have whipsawed recently. In June, nonresidential input costs decreased 1.1% month over month, according to the latest data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. But that dip came after a 2.6% month-over-month surge in May, a jump that helped spur the fastest annual increase since the pandemic.

Mobile payment apps such as Venmo, PayPal, and Cash App have grown in popularity in recent years. More than three-quarters of Americans have used these types of apps to send or receive money from individuals.
Yet despite the convenience and growing use of P2P apps, there are risks you should be aware of as well. In particular, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) warns consumers that storing cash in apps like PayPal, Cash App, and Venmo is a habit you should avoid. Here's why.
A peer-to-peer payment app is a type of digital payment platform that allows you to transfer money to another individual using a mobile device or computer. When you register for a P2P service, you start by connecting your bank account, credit card, or digital wallet. From there, you can send or receive cash to other users who are registered with the same P2P service.
Depending on the P2P payment app, you may incur fees when you send money. Other services may charge you fees to transfer funds to your bank account — especially if an international transfer is involved. Many P2P apps, however, offer free payment options for sending cash between friends and family members. Non-expedited domestic bank transfers may be free as well, depending on the app.
