AA Milne's first Pooh book was published a century ago in October 1926. Generations of children loved it, but its inspiration, the author's own son, told the BBC that he took to "running away when people bring up the subject".
"Pooh, promise you won't forget about me, ever. Not even when I'm a hundred." This is the plaintive cry made by Christopher Robin to his teddy bear, Winnie-the-Pooh, in the final chapter of The House in Pooh Corner.
British novelist and playwright AA Milne needn't have worried. The first Winnie-the-Book was published 100 years ago in October 1926, and introduced a cast of characters modelled on the author's son and the soft toys he played with: lovably dim Pooh Bear, nervy Piglet, hyperactive Tigger, pessimistic Eeyore. Far from being forgotten, in the century since then the characters have taken on a life far beyond the parameters of their idyllic home, the Hundred Acre Wood.
BBC Radio 4, Desert Island Discs: Christopher Milne, 13/11/1976
From 1966, they became the subject of animated and live-action Disney films, in what is now one of the highest-grossing media franchises of all time. Pooh Bear has even courted controversy in Poland for being "inappropriate", sparked memes mocking the Chinese president Xi Jinping, and prompted tongue-in-cheek pop-culture theories in which the residents of the Hundred Acre Wood have been "diagnosed" with different psychological conditions.

Darien celebrated three state championships in girls sports last school year: field hockey, girls ice hockey and girls lacrosse.
Adriana Gromelski was an integral part of all three as she earned GametimeCT All-State First Team honors in each sport and was named GametimeCT Female Athlete of the Year.
In all, Gromelski has been part of six state **** les during her time with the Blue Wave.
"Only one team can win it. It's a moment not everyone gets to have," Gromelski said. "I'm super grateful I've gotten to experience it multiple times."
With that in mind, the senior star decided to switch sports this fall for a new high school experience. Instead of helping Darien defend its CIAC field hockey crown, Gromelski switched to soccer. It's a sport she played from elementary school through eighth grade.

Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers bashes Buccaneers' home field for safety concerns appeared first on ClutchPoints. Add ClutchPoints as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
Aaron Rodgers and the Pittsburgh Steelers were able to leave Raymond James Stadium on Sunday with a 26-19 victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. However, despite securing the comeback win, the Steelers quarterback expressed considerable frustration after the game over the condition of Tampa Bay's home-field surface.
Following the game, Rodgers openly criticized the playing surface at Raymond James Stadium, raising concerns about the potential risks it poses to players' safety.
"It's got to be one of the worst surfaces in the league," Rodgers said. "We're talking about player safety. I'm very thankful to not get hurt. I've gotten hurt twice on this field, in my opinion, because of the turf. I don't think it's very safe out there."

Green Bay Packers TE Tucker Kraft caught five passes for 37 yards against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 6. Kraft was targeted eight times in the win.
SOURCE: USA TODAY
Why It Matters: Unquestionably the most important thing that happened for Kraft on Sunday night was that he avoided another knee injury as he headed to the blue medical tent after taking a low hit. He was able to return, however, which is big news for the Packers and Kraft owners. While the talented tight end still hasn't gotten fully back to form, he's one of the three pillars of the passing game with Christian Watson and Matthew Golden, and as those two continue to command attention, it should open things up for Kraft. He's a low-end TE1 right now, but he could push toward top-five status if he can recapture his pre-injury form.

Philadelphia Eagles RB Dameon Pierce carried 12 times for 35 yards and a touchdown in a Week 6 loss to the Carolina Panthers. He also caught four of his five targets for 15 yards.
SOURCE: USA TODAY
Why It Matters: The Eagles running back room has been decimated by injuries, so Pierce has gotten his chance the last two weeks. He had 11 carries for 14 yards last week against Jacksonville, so it would not be a stretch to say he didn't take advantage. That said, the offensive line is missing some key pieces and Jalen Hurts was put on IR over the weekend. Pierce should only be considered an emergency fantasy start until Saquon Barkley returns, which could be as soon as Week 7.

Packers' Evan Williams denies Cowboys TD with huge Dak Prescott INT appeared first on ClutchPoints. Add ClutchPoints as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
The Green Bay Packers got on the board first in their much-hyped Week 6 clash against the Dallas Cowboys. Jordan Love connected with Matthew Golden for a nine-yard touchdown in the first quarter.
The Cowboys looked poised to answer as they got an interception from inside Packers territory on their next possession. They thought they had scored a pick six, but it was overturned. The Packers then hit back immediately as Evan Williams picked off Dak Prescott on the very next possession.
Williams likely saved a touchdown or at least a field goal with his interception as the Cowboys were already in the red zone. Prescott's pass was intended for CeeDee Lamb, but the Cowboys wideout likely wouldn't have gotten to the ball as it seemed to be thrown behind him. The resulting Packers possession resulted in a field goal after a marathon 15-play drive that lasted over eight minutes.
The Packers defense has been on quite a roll with the interceptions this season. Heading into Week 6, they were tied for the lead league with seven interceptions. And with their pick of Prescott, they have now recorded an INT in five of their first six games. Curiously, the only quarterback they failed to pick off was the Jets' Geno Smith.

Spike Lee came out in support of Nolan Wells and his family. The filmmaker shared a "do the right thing" inspired image to support Wells amid his family's ongoing efforts to seek a federal investigation.
Spike Lee took to Instagram to share a post supporting Nolan Wells. He shared a photo of himself wearing a ring that reads "Nolan Wells." Lee's post was inspired by his 1989 film Do the Right Thing, which explores tension, injustice, and conflict. His post came as Nolan Wells' family continued calling for a federal investigation into the case amid racial tensions surrounding his death.
Following his post, the internet was quick to react, with many users coming up in support of Wells. One user said, "One of the best movies of all time. Thank you, Spike!" Another user wrote, "I'm Chip tha Ripper, and I approve this message ?." One user commented, "Another injustice and senseless loss. The fact that his family will never have true peace is horrific."
Another Instagram user said, "Nolan Wells was LOVED, but it hurts to think the people he called FRIENDS couldn't show him that same love. His name will never be forgotten. #????️."
Lee is not the only public figure to support Wells. The case also drew attention from Donald Trump. When a White House reporter asked Trump about Wells' family demanding a federal investigation, he said, "Well, we're looking at that. Yes, we are." (via The Guardian)

In July, Reps. Mike Lawler, a New York Republican, and Josh Gottheimer, a New Jersey Democrat, had a request for the Federal Election Commission: help make sure artificial intelligence chatbots do not feed voters false information about the 2026 midterm elections.
The lawmakers, writing to the FEC as well as the Justice and Homeland Security departments, urged the agencies to coordinate on "AI-driven threats to election integrity" and to press AI companies on their safeguards. Their concerns come as a quarter of likely voters use AI tools daily and at least 38% have gotten information about candidates or voting from AI search summaries, according to a September survey released by the American ****** ociation of Political Consultants Foundation.
But later that month, FEC Commissioner Shana Broussard, a Democrat, wrote back with a blunt answer: the agency couldn't help. With only two of its six commissioner seats filled, the FEC "cannot proceed," she wrote, according to documents obtained through the Freedom of Information Act.
Broussard signed the letter as an individual commissioner. Without a quorum — the four members needed out of a total of six — she could not under federal law even speak for the agency.

A royal expert claimed that Princess Diana loved King Charles until the very end. Moreover, she reportedly believed their relationship might have worked if they had met when they were a little older. The remark came after Charles Spencer released a memoir about Diana containing several bombshell claims, particularly about the monarch.
Princess Diana allegedly thought she met King Charles "at the wrong time." Ingrid Seward, the royal author, recently spoke about her conversations with Diana and her feelings about Charles with The Royal Observer. The comments come after the release of Charles Spencer's new memoir, Swan Song: Diana, My Sister. The book covers Diana's life, her marriage to Charles and the events surrounding her death. Spencer makes several claims about the former Prince of Wales, including allegations about his reaction following Diana's death.
Diana's brother mentioned that Charles sounded "giddily elated" during a phone call following Diana's death. He also wrote that the then-Prince of Wales said people would forget Diana "soon enough." Seward shared her thoughts on the matter and questioned whether Diana would approve of the allegations currently being made about Charles. The royal author said, "[The accusations are] the last thing in the world that Diana ever would have wanted, because she loved Charles. She loved him right until the end."
Seward also said that Diana wished they could have gotten back together. The renowned author said that Diana told her that had they met at the right time, when they were a little older, their relationship might have worked.
After their divorce was finalized in 1996, Seward said Diana and Charles were getting along quite well. She added, "There was a moment of togetherness, and Diana actually said to me, 'It's so sad because we could have conquered the world.'" Charles and Diana tied the knot on July 29, 1981, and had two sons, Prince William and Prince Harry. Their formal separation was announced in 1992, and their divorce was finalized four years later in 1996.

M*A*S*H star Alan Alda recently sat down with CBS Sunday Morning's Dr. Jon LaPook, revealing a nightmarish story from his childhood. When the actor was seven, he battled polio, and like tens of thousands of other Americans during the 1950s and 60s, the now-eliminated virus left Alda with serious symptoms at the time.
Alda explained, "I had polio before there was a vaccine. It was pretty hard to experience." He continued, contextualizing the experience, "My father had just gotten a huge part, his first big part, playing George Gershwin in the biopic of Gershwin. And about a week after he started shooting, I got polio." Of course, Alda was referring to Robert Alda, the vaudeville, Broadway, and alter, film star.
And here's where the story takes an even scarier turn. "He and my mother had to administer the treatment, which was almost scalding hot packs of wool on every limb. So they're practically torturing their kid. I remember thinking it was hard on them. There's a little bit of empathy. But I knew it was hard for them." Despite the harsh treatments, Alda was, as he described, "All stiff and I couldn't walk. I was affected in every limb but one arm."
If you're wondering what Carol Burnett has to do with the M*A*S*H star's scalding wool treatment, he shared, "She lived about two blocks away while I was in my house with polio. I would stand on the bed and look out the window and see kids playing, and I was waiting for the time I'd be out there playing with them."

Chris Rock said that his problem with "quote, unquote, wokeness" is that it leads to a world that is, in his opinion, less forgiving than it needs to be.
The comedian and "Misty Green" filmmaker stopped by the New York Times' "The Interview" series this weekend and said that while advocating for marginalized communities is great, it needs to come with forgiveness, a huge theme in his new film starring Rosalind Eleazar.
When asked by host David Marchese about the throughline forgiveness has in the film, Rock said that "you don't really realize if you love somebody until you have to forgive them," adding that somebody letting you down or betraying you, but still choosing to be around them, is what true love is.

"I have a friend that's going to be nameless that might have gotten canceled," Rock said. "Another friend of mine was like, 'How can you be friends with that person?' I was like, 'If you're only friends with your friends when they're good, they're not your friends.' If you've got a bunch of people that are only going to be there when you're good, you have no friends. That doesn't mean condoning abusive behavior; you can reprimand your friends. That's also part of friendship."
When pressed by Marchese, who said that everyone has to have a line at some point, the comedian held his ground.
"I'm a Christian, and God forgives," he said. "The problem with quote, unquote, wokeness — and don't get me wrong, it is great that marginalized people have a voice; it is great to advocate for anybody that feels marginalized — but the problem is we're in the Old Testament right now, and the Old Testament has no forgiveness. The Old Testament didn't work, so they had to write a remix called the New Testament."

"They're both obsessed with skincare," the source tells the National Enquirer. "Not a lot of men are as passionate about it as they are, so it's something that they've really bonded over."
According to the source, the retired athlete, 51, and the Top Gun star, 64, aren't simply trading grooming tips, either.
"Tom and David have been going for facials together," spills the source. "They've both gotten some pretty intense laser treatments too."
Thanks to the former soccer pro's wife, Victoria Beckham, "they have the numbers for all the best dermatologists and estheticians and hairstylists," adds the source. "And they have been putting them to use."

Nicki Minaj has taken aim at the Democratic Party by alleging that the political party has become infatuated with "pop culture."
On Saturday morning (September 26), Fox News shared a teaser clip of the Pink Friday 2 rapper's sit-down interview with Lara Trump, the wife of President Donald Trump's third child, Eric Trump.
In the last year, Minaj has pivoted from music to politics by exhibiting a full show of support for Donald Trump, largely in opposition of Gavin Newsom. Minaj has alleged that the California governor turned a blind eye to her Los Angeles home being swatted multiple times.
"I think the Democrats have gotten way too caught up in pop culture, for lack of a better term," Minaj said in the clip below.

An arrest has been made in the death of a former Nickelodeon star killed in a gruesome hit-and-run car crash in New York City.
On Tuesday (Sept. 29), authorities announced that Michael Griffiths has been indicted in connection with the death of Kianna Underwood, who was slain in January after being struck and run over by a vehicle while crossing a Brooklyn intersection.
Griffiths, 72, was taken into custody and hit with multiple charges, including leaving the scene of an accident resulting in death. However, Griffith, who lives a short distance from the site of the crash, claims he is not at fault for the 33-year-old's death.
According to reports, on Jan. 16, Underwood was crossing the street against a red light at the intersection of Pitkin Avenue and Mother Gaston Boulevard in Brownsville when she was initially struck by Griffiths, who was driving a black 2021 Ford Explorer SUV.
After the first collision, Underwood was run over by a second vehicle, identified as a black sedan, heading west on Pitkin Avenue, with the victim being dragged for two blocks before her body became dislodged on Pitkin Avenue, near Osborne Street. While Griffiths claims to have gotten out of his vehicle in an attempt to flag down the second driver and tend to the victim, he's accused of fleeing before police arrived on the scene.

On September 14, during the episode of Mad Money, Jim Cramer said CrowdStrike Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:CRWD) is emerging as a beneficiary of growing concerns over the cybersecurity risks created by artificial intelligence, as he said:
Over the weekend, the co-founder and CEO of Anthropic published an essay where he pushed for a slowdown among the frontier AI labs in order to handle newfound security concerns. In response to that, the cybersecurity cohort just went crazy because there are the companies that can prevent AI agents from randomly hacking into networks all over the world, and it's the cybersecurity companies. Take CrowdStrike, which shot up nearly 14% today, leading the S&P 500, something I feel great about, of course, because we own it big for the Charitable Trust. These guys have been adamant that AI represented a great opportunity for their business, and now Wall Street's finally gotten the memo.
CrowdStrike Holdings, Inc.'s (NASDAQ:CRWD) second-quarter fiscal 2027 revenue increased 26% year over year to $1.47 billion, while ending annual recurring revenue rose 25% to $5.84 billion. Net new ARR reached a record $332.8 million, and free cash flow was $377.4 million. The company also raised its full-year fiscal 2027 net new ARR growth outlook to 34% at the midpoint, up 630 basis points. CEO George Kurtz said the company believes securing AI is its "largest market opportunity in our history."
Kurtz said on September 14 that AI-driven threats are already operating at machine speed, describing the emerging threat as autonomous campaigns rather than individual hackers. He identified endpoints, cloud workloads and SaaS as key battlegrounds and said "enforcement at machine speed" is needed to stop AI agents in motion. CrowdStrike has responded by expanding into AI-agent, model and infrastructure protection, including Continuous Identity for AI Agents and Falcon AI Detection and Response.
CrowdStrike Holdings, Inc.'s (NASDAQ:CRWD) valuation leaves little room for a meaningful slowdown in growth. Yahoo Finance currently shows a forward P/E of approximately 188.7 times and a price-to-sales ratio of roughly 44.6 times. Those multiples leave little room for a material slowdown in ARR growth, weaker adoption of newer products, or greater competitive pressure. The company also remains much less profitable on a GAAP basis than its adjusted results suggest. The company reported a $33.2 million GAAP operating loss in the latest quarter against $371.6 million of non-GAAP operating income, while stock-based compensation and related employer payroll taxes totaled $399 million.

Stocks slid Wednesday afternoon after Federal Reserve Chair Kevin Warsh followed the central bank's first rate hike in three years with a press conference that hinted it wouldn't be the last.
The S&P 500 dropped 1%, heading toward its lowest close since July. The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 1.7%, or more than 700 points, with financial shares leading the decline. The Nasdaq Composite fell 0.8%. The 10-year Treasury yield held near 5% a day after touching its highest level since 2007, and the dollar index climbed 0.6% to its strongest since late July.
Markets had priced in the quarter-point increase itself and initially took it in stride. All three indexes were higher before the 2 p.m. decision. The selling started during the press conference.
Warsh was on a tightrope going in. The question was whether he'd frame the hike as a one-off adjustment—which risked the bond market reading it as too little to deter inflation—or as the start of a longer cycle. He did neither, and instead went in a more hawkish direction. "I would be hard pressed to describe broad financial conditions as restrictive," he said in his opening remarks. "This view was widely shared by the committee, so we removed a dose of accommodation."
That's a new way of describing a rate hike, and one investors aren't used to. Under his predecessor, Jerome Powell, the Fed called policy "modestly restrictive," meaning rates were already high enough to slow the economy. Warsh was saying that at 3.5%–3.75%, they weren't—and by implication, one quarter point may not have gotten them there either. Asked directly, he declined to say whether policy is restrictive now.

Sep. 14—GRAND FORKS — UND's coaching staff has gotten its first few looks at the 2026-27 hockey team.
Due to NCAA rule changes, coaches can be on the ice with the team earlier than in the past.
"We're working out some kinks and getting the rust off," UND second-year head coach Dane Jackson said. "The professionalism, preparedness, focus and mindset of our guys has been very good. They all seem to have a real passion to come to the rink and are excited to be working. We've been really happy with the work we've been getting done."
Players initially returned to Grand Forks in July. They skated on their own for about five weeks.
Now, the coaches are working to implement systems and to sharpen details.

Cleveland Browns fans are used to their team stumbling out of the gate and not playing well in season openers.
However, Sunday's 34-10 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars sparked anger and disappointment for several reasons, chief among them Deshaun Watson's role as starting quarterback.
For those wondering if Todd Monken would turn to Shedeur Sanders for Week 2 at Tampa Bay, the first-year coach said Monday: "I anticipate Deshaun will be our starter."
"It's only been two weeks, he's gotten all the reps, and there were some really good things on film, some things that you can build on," Monken said.
"I liked his week of practice last week, and I think he's only going to continue to get better."

Packers safety Javon Bullard got a 15-yard penalty for the hit that knocked Vikings quarterback Kyler Murray out of Sunday's game. Vikings right tackle Brian O'Neill thinks Bullard should have gotten more than that.
O'Neill shoved Bullard after that hit, but after the game he said he wishes he had been more aggressive toward the opponent who just gave his quarterback a concussion.
"It was so bang, bang," O'Neill said, via ESPN. "You don't want to freak out if you're wrong. I was probably wrong to not freak out more than that. So I kind of wish I took a shot at him."
Bullard easily could have been ejected for the hit, and he'll surely at least be fined by the NFL, if not suspended. But he escaped the Vikings dishing out any justice on the field, something that O'Neill regrets about Sunday's game.

Bob Mackie had strong feelings about Kim Kardashian wearing Marilyn Monroe's historic dress.
The legendary fashion designer, whose death was announced Sept. 14 at age 87, sketched the original design at the start of his career while working as an ***** istant to French-born costumer Jean Louis.
Monroe made American history in 1962 when she wore the nude shimmering gown during her performance of "Happy Birthday" for then-President John F. Kennedy. The dress and her serenade were never forgotten.
So much so that 60 years later in 2022, Kardashian worked with the owner of the dress, Ripley's Believe It or Not! museum, to wear the bling-encrusted gown to the Met Gala, acknowledging that she slimmed down dramatically to fit into it.
Mackie called Kardashian's wearing of the skin-tight gown a "big mistake," telling Entertainment Weekly that Monroe was "a goddess. A crazy goddess, but a goddess." He went on to describe her as "just fabulous," noting that the dress "was designed for her."

Florida State football rumors: Is Jimbo Fisher an option to replace Mike Norvell if he's fired? appeared first on ClutchPoints. Add ClutchPoints as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
The Florida State Seminoles fired Michael Alford as athletic director on Monday. After the University made its final decision to switch things up for its future in sports, rumors began swirling around Mike Norvell's job security as the head coach of the football program. The rumors have already gotten to the point that there is now some buzz that Jimbo Fisher could reprise his role as the Seminoles' head coach if Norvell were to be let go.
While that may be the case, Florida State President Richard McCullough didn't provide much details about Norvell's position. When asked firing the athletic director means for the 44-year-old head coach's future with the program, McCullough claimed that FSU is simply focused on winning, according to Adam Rittenberg of ESPN.
"Nobody wants to win more than Mike Norvell," McCullough said. "College coaches are in the winning business. That's what we're working on."
