Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's plans for a more private Ohio retreat have run into some very public objections. Neighbors of the $5.35 million Lake Erie estate are challenging proposed landscaping and fencing, raising concerns about a shared sewer line, wildlife, and how the changes could affect their longtime homes.
A six-foot fence has already received approval, but parts of the landscaping remain unresolved. The property's representatives, meanwhile, say they have adjusted the plans, paid for sewer repairs and added gates to accommodate residents.

According to the Daily Mail, the dispute centers on an estate in Bratenahl, a village outside Cleveland. Property records cited by the outlet show that an LLC linked to Kelce purchased the mansion in March. The 21,000-square-foot property features eight bedrooms, 11 bathrooms, and a two-bedroom guest cottage. Built in 1895, it also has a former ballroom converted into a game room and home theater.
But proposed changes to the grounds have become a sticking point with nearby residents. Katherine Bolton, who has lived next door for 35 years, described news of the new owners as a "tremendous blow" to "the peace and quiet in Bratenahl."

Ex-Prince Andrew is reportedly fully "convinced" that he will emerge victorious in his legal case against the police. Multiple publications reported that the disgraced former Duke of York would be pursuing legal action against the Thames Valley Police over his headline-making February arrest. Notably, Andrew has demanded a judicial review of whether the circumstances of his arrest were lawful.
Ex-Prince Andrew is reportedly positive that he will win his legal case against the Thames Valley Police. For those unversed, the search warrants were issued in February over suspicions of misconduct in public office and allegations concerning his ties to convicted **** offender Jeffrey Epstein.
Now, eight months after the incident, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor has reportedly pursued legal action against police who arrested him and searched his homes earlier this year. A private hearing regarding the case is scheduled for Thursday, October 8. Ahead of the hearing, the disgraced royal is "utterly convinced" he will win the legal battle (via The Sun).
A source alleged that the former Duke of York feels "upbeat" and "buoyant". Also, he is sure of the fact he will be "completely exonerated" one day. The insider added that Andrew views the judicial review as the "first step" towards clearing the allegations and restoring his reputation.
Notably, Andrew's older brother, King Charles, stripped his brother of royal **** les. The king also banished him from royal accommodation. The disgraced prince disappeared from royal life and stopped making official public appearances.

JOINT BASE ANDREWS, Md. — Vice President JD Vance acknowledged Thursday that Republicans face an “uphill climb” in next month’s midterm elections — and that the results may be a data point he reviews as he decides whether to run for president in 2028.
“Historically there’s always a bit of an uphill climb, and I think you definitely sense that,” Vance said in an interview with NBC News. “I also think you can sense a sense of cautious optimism, in the sense that, you know, people feel like the numbers are sort of moving, maybe in our direction.”
He added: “Politically, there’s just a recognition that it’s always going to be hard to win a midterm when you have the White House, the Senate and the House.”
Vance spoke aboard Air Force Two shortly after it landed on a return trip from Lakeland, Florida, where he campaigned for Sen. Ashley Moody and Rep. Byron Donalds, the Republican nominee for governor. It was his latest headlining gig at a rally meant to boost support for the party’s candidates in what is expected to be a challenging year for the GOP.
Aside from the historical trends Vance mentioned, polls have shown President Donald Trump and the war in Iran highly unpopular among voters. A related rise in gas prices has added to a cascade of affordability concerns. And Americans are growing more skeptical of artificial intelligence and the large, power-hungry data centers being built to accommodate the technology. All of those issues could factor into voters’ choices in this fall’s key races for the House, the Senate and governor.

LeBron James' wife, Savannah, is under fire after her friend revealed that she doesn't fly first class with her. On an episode of Boardroom's "Mental Wealth" podcast, Savannah and her longtime friend and podcast co-host, April McDaniel, discussed money and how it affects their friendship. The pair's answers went viral online, sparking passionate responses from fans who believe Savannah isn't doing enough.
"My friends are very respectful of my situation. You know, if I'm like, 'We're going somewhere,' they already understand what it is," Savannah said on the Monday, September 28 episode of "Mental Wealth."
She continued, "There's no expectation of, like, taking care of something or, you know, just having me be responsible for them. It has never, ever been that."
As the conversation continued, Savannah's friend, McDaniel, revealed that their lifestyles are different. She said the differences show up when they travel, explaining that she flies business class while Savannah flies first class.
"We talk about this a lot because there's two different lifestyles that exist," said McDaniel. "Like we're not delusional to that. And I think Savannah has accommodated where I'm at."

Trip.com Group Limited (NASDAQ:TCOM) reported second-quarter 2026 net revenue of RMB15.7 billion, up 6% year over year, in results released September 15. Revenue on its international platform increased more than 50%, highlighting a promising source of expansion against slower group growth.
Trip.com Group Limited (NASDAQ:TCOM) also recognized a RMB5.2 billion antimonopoly penalty in general and administrative expenses. The investment question extends beyond that charge: can international expansion generate enough profitable growth to offset pressure on domestic monetization?
International expansion gives Trip.com Group Limited (NASDAQ:TCOM) a potential route to reducing dependence on revenue earned from domestic travel. A broader customer base could make growth less reliant on a single market's commercial practices and regulatory environment.
The opportunity is especially attractive if new customers become repeat users. Over time, repeat bookings could reduce acquisition spending per transaction and allow technology and service costs to be spread across more revenue. That would turn international scale into operating leverage, with profits growing faster than sales.
Trip.com Group Limited (NASDAQ:TCOM) also grew accommodation revenue 6% year over year despite a regulator-imposed revenue reduction. That result offers some evidence of resilience, although reservation growth and the revenue earned from those reservations remain separate considerations.

Shoulder-season travel is giving some hotels opportunities to trade for longer and reduce their dependence on peak months. But additional demand only changes the investment proposition if those extra trading periods generate durable profit and improve the quality of annual cash flow.
Across parts of Europe, tourism demand is becoming less concentrated in traditional peak periods.
The shift should not be overstated. July and August still accounted for 31.1% of all EU tourist-accommodation nights in 2025, according to Eurostat. In highly seasonal markets, the concentration was much greater: 54.5% of Croatia's annual nights and 41.6% of Greece's occurred during those two months.
But demand is moving at the margins. The European Travel Commission reported stronger autumn demand in several markets in late 2025. In Hungary, for example, growth in international arrivals and nights during autumn exceeded summer growth.
For hotel investors, however, a longer potential travel season is only the starting point.

Estes Express Lines is investing nearly $56 million to expand its cross-border and offshore freight network, including terminals, equipment and capacity serving Canada, Mexico, Alaska, Hawaii and Puerto Rico.
Alex Peebles, senior director of offshore and international at Estes, said the privately held, family-owned carrier is taking a longer view of the freight market rather than allowing current conditions to dictate its investment strategy.
"We're really looking at all of these investments from a long-term horizon and viewpoint perspective and one that's going to help accommodate growth and capacity into all the offshore international markets that we service," Peebles told FreightWaves.
Estes, which is celebrating its 95th anniversary this year, is North America's largest privately held less-than-truckload (LTL) freight transportation provider. The company operates a network of over 300 terminals and service centers across the U.S., Puerto Rico, Alaska, Hawaii with coverage extending to Canada, Mexico and the Caribbean
Peebles said the company's ownership structure gives it flexibility to move quickly when real estate and equipment opportunities arise.

Hub Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:HUBG) disclosed on September 14 that preliminary, unaudited first-half 2026 revenue was expected to reach $1.7 billion to $1.8 billion, near management's expectations. Yet management anticipated an operating loss before one-time charges. This non-GAAP presentation excludes those charges, but neither the loss nor the exclusions were quantified.
Hub Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:HUBG) identified higher fuel, rail, and drayage costs, excess warehouse capacity, and accounting-review and restatement expenses. The central issue is whether pricing and efficiency improvements can restore profitability on the revenue already moving through the business.
Hub Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:HUBG) began implementing rate increases in the third quarter, after transportation costs had pressured first-half results. Relatively stable intermodal volume trends suggest an existing customer base on which better pricing could improve margins. If increases hold without significant volume losses, revenue could become more profitable without requiring a broad freight recovery.
Hub Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:HUBG) also launched additional efficiency initiatives in the second quarter, including warehouse consolidation and improvements in driver and warehouse-worker productivity. These actions address specific weaknesses: underused ***** e spreads fixed costs across fewer orders, while low productivity raises the cost of each shipment or handling task. Better utilization could reinforce the benefit of higher rates.
Hub Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:HUBG) is also targeting order-to-cash processes, which cover the steps from taking orders through billing and collection. Improvements could reduce administrative friction and accelerate cash collection. That would support liquidity while operational changes take effect, although faster collections alone would not repair an operating loss.

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.

Union Pacific Corp (NYSE:UNP, XETRA:UNP) received a UBS upgrade to Buy from Neutral as the broker forecast stronger 2027 growth, excluding potential NSC merger benefits from its base case.
UBS raised its price target from $310 to $339, applying an unchanged multiple of 21 times its 2028 earnings forecast of $16.15 per share.
The bank expects intermodal volumes to grow 6% to 7% in 2027, citing current volume momentum and the relationship between intermodal performance and truckload pricing cycles.
Alongside industrial growth and a roughly neutral contribution from coal and grain, those intermodal gains underpin UBS's forecast for 3.5% total volume growth in 2027.
Low inventories should support steel shipments, while elevated energy prices should sustain petroleum and products volumes, the broker said.

On September 14, Radiant Logistics (NYSEAMERICAN:RLGT) held its fourth fiscal quarter earnings call, and the headline numbers landed harder than a typical logistics update. Net income jumped 53.1% to $7.5 million for the quarter ended June 30, while revenue climbed 18.5% to $261.4 million. Look past that one quarter, though, and the picture gets more complicated, because full-year adjusted profitability actually fell. That gap between a blowout quarter and a softer year is what makes this name worth a closer look.
The fourth fiscal quarter was strong from top to bottom. Adjusted EBITDA rose 31.6% to $10.4 million, margin expanded 240 basis points to 15.5%, and adjusted net income climbed 34.5% to $7.4 million, all against organic revenue growth of 8%. Management credited the acceleration to US forwarding operations and international airfreight, including work supporting disaster relief after typhoon activity hit the Western Pacific earlier this year, plus airfreight demand tied to capital flows into global data center buildouts.
The balance sheet backs up the story. Radiant enters fiscal 2027 with zero net debt, $25.6 million in cash as of June 30, and a $200 million senior credit facility that was extended and restated in August, pushing maturity out to August 7, 2031, while its acquisition-focused accordion grew to $100 million from $75 million. On the domestic side, capacity has been exiting the truckload and intermodal markets, and spot rates and tender rejections moved higher late in the quarter. Radiant also launched a new independent agent program at Radiant Road & Rail during the quarter, extending its freight forwarding agent network into truck brokerage and intermodal, while Navegate is gaining traction, with one enterprise customer now managing more than 1,400 vendors on the platform.
The full-year numbers tell a different story than the quarter does. Revenue rose just 3.5% to $934.4 million from $902.7 million, a fraction of the fourth quarter's 18.5% pace, and full-year net income grew a modest 8.7% to $18.8 million. Full-year adjusted EBITDA actually fell 5.4% to $36.7 million from $38.8 million, and that figure included a $1.3 million First Brands adjustment. Strip that out and normalized adjusted EBITDA comes in at $35.4 million, an even steeper decline than the headline number suggests.
The operating backdrop stays complicated too. Ocean shipping routes remain disrupted by the closure of the Strait of Hormuz and continued Houthi activity affecting Suez Canal transits, keeping capacity tight on key trade lanes. US tariff policy is generating elevated IEEPA-related filing activity, and Canada put new retaliatory tariff measures into effect in early September, adding fresh complexity for shippers moving goods across that border. Management itself acknowledged that the domestic truck brokerage improvement seen late in the fourth quarter is not yet fully reflected in the reported results.

Third-party logistics provider Radiant Logistics beat fiscal fourth-quarter expectations Monday after the market closed. A volatile trade landscape is driving demand higher for its customs brokerage and compliance services. It also flagged further tightening in the domestic truckload and intermodal markets, which will propel financial results over time.
"While these market trends are not fully reflected in our results for the June quarter, we view these developments as constructive for our domestic operations in general and our U.S. Brokerage operations, in particular," said Bohn Crain, founder and CEO, in a news release. "If these trends continue, we believe they support a more broad-based and durable recovery for the domestic freight market."
The report sent shares of RLGT 16% higher in early trading on Tuesday versus the S&P 500, which was down 0.2%.
The Renton, Washington-based company reported revenue of $261 million for its fiscal fourth quarter, ended June 30. The result was 19% higher year over year and $30 million ahead of the consensus estimate.
Adjusted earnings per share of 15 cents ($7.4 million) were 4 cents higher y/y and 6 cents ahead of consensus. Disaster relief shipments following typhoons in the Western Pacific drove international airfreight results higher in the period.

ASML Holding N.V. (NASDAQ:ASML) is examining ways to produce more than 110 EUV lithography systems in 2028, according to JPMorgan ***** ysts following a meeting with CFO Roger Dassen. The company is already nearly sold out for 2027 and expects to produce at least 80 EUV systems that year, meaning output above 110 in 2028 would represent at least a 37.5% increase from the 2027 level. JPMorgan said the main constraint has shifted toward ***** embly speed rather than the availability of critical components, suggesting ASML believes additional capacity can be unlocked through manufacturing and ***** embly improvements.
The potential increase is being driven primarily by AI-related demand. ASML's existing EUV machines, which cost roughly $200 million each, are essential for manufacturing leading-edge AI processors, while customers including TSMC, Samsung, SK Hynix and Intel are expanding advanced-chip capacity. Reuters reported separately that virtually all of ASML's EUV production capacity is booked through 2027, while the company has begun construction of a new Eindhoven facility designed to accelerate tool ***** embly and eventually accommodate up to 20,000 workers.
The strongest bullish implication is that ASML Holding N.V. (NASDAQ:ASML) may be able to convert exceptionally strong demand into higher unit volumes rather than simply relying on price increases. Moving from at least 80 EUV systems in 2027 to more than 110 in 2028 would materially expand the number of high-value systems ASML can monetize. This comes after the company already raised its 2026 revenue outlook to €43 billion–€45 billion, compared with its previous €36 billion–€40 billion range, while targeting a 54%–56% gross margin. Reuters also reported that second-quarter revenue reached €9.3 billion with a 54% gross margin, demonstrating that stronger AI-driven demand is already translating into financial performance.
The longer-term competitive position is particularly favorable because ASML Holding N.V. (NASDAQ:ASML) effectively has no commercial competitor in EUV. JPMorgan estimates that ASML held 94% of the overall lithography market in 2025, while Reuters describes the company as having maintained a monopoly in EUV since the late 2010s. At the same time, customers are committing to ASML's next-generation High-NA technology: the machines cost approximately $400 million, can print features about 40% smaller than existing EUV systems, and TSMC, Samsung, and SK Hynix have all established plans for production adoption. If AI chip demand remains strong enough to support both higher low-NA volumes and eventual High-NA adoption, ASML could see a multi-year increase in system shipments, revenue, and potentially cash generation while strengthening its already exceptional competitive moat.

Performance was driven by U.S. forwarding operations and international airfreight strength, particularly in disaster relief efforts following Western Pacific typhoons.
The Navegate platform is acting as a growth catalyst, enabling enterprise customers to manage complex supply chains, including one client managing over 1,400 vendors.
Domestic market dynamics are improving as capacity exits the North America truckload and intermodal sectors through carrier attrition and tighter driver availability.
Management observed constructive cyclical indicators, including rising spot rates and tender rejections, which began to manifest late in the fourth fiscal quarter.

Taxes paid by pubs, hotels and cinemas in Wales will fall after the Welsh government announced a 30% cut in some business rates.
First Minister Rhun ap Iorwerth said hospitality, accommodation and leisure venues would receive the permanent cut in rates from April 2027.
"It is about helping businesses like this to thrive, so our communities can thrive," ap Iorwerth said on a visit to a pub in Cardiff.
The cut, which will be funded by an increase in the rates paid by businesses with the highest-value properties, was welcomed by UK Hospitality Cymru. But the trade body warned businesses still faced "massive amounts of taxation coming from all areas".

The energy outside Cipriani, in Lower Manhattan, across from the Charging Bull statue on Broadway, seemed conspicuously suspended in a different time. It was as if crossing the threshold into the Financial District sent me back a decade, to the genesis of this current generation's cultural aesthetic—to the lines at VFiles, the SoHo clothing store whose Howard St. storefront once served as epicenter of the nascent fusion of the worlds of streetwear, hip-hop, and high fashion. All of this was because Kai Cenat, the popular Twitch streamer and content creator, was making his runway debut. The fashion show for his brand Vivet's first collection drew a crowd of the current generation's innovators, giving a reminiscent feeling to the last time a popular figure came crashing through the gates of mainstream fashion.
In attendance that night were popular streamers like Jasontheween, Rakai, and Duke Dennis, alongside more traditional celebrity names: Jaden Smith, Luka Sabbat, Lauryn Hill (!). Popular fashion podcasters and journalists from the New York Times filtered through the crowd as well. It reminded me of the pre-pandemic days of fashion week pop-ups in the shadow of Ye's YZY Szn launches, when the crowds outside seemed as consequential as whoever had a seat inside. Social media had given a generation of streetwear obsessives and aspiring artists a way to build their own audiences, and fashion was beginning to accommodate them. At Cipriani, the streamers had brought another audience into the room.

India's search for consistency in T20I cricket will continue with a three-match series against Afghanistan, but the team's batting combination could once again come under scrutiny, particularly with vice-captain Tilak Varma's role yet to appear fully settled.

India, led by Shreyas Iyer, endured a difficult run following their second consecutive T20 World Cup triumph earlier this year. The team lost all six of its T20Is against Ireland and England before finally putting together a 3-0 clean sweep against Zimbabwe.

The Afghanistan series begins on September 13 (Saturday), with India also scheduled to play a historic T20I against ******* an before featuring in the Asian Games 2026.
With several established batters competing for places, former South Africa star AB de Villiers believes India could face a selection headache, particularly when it comes to deciding where Tilak Varma fits into the batting order.

Speaking on his YouTube channel, de Villiers pointed to the number of batting options available to India and questioned how the team would accommodate its vice-captain.

"There will definitely be some selection issues with regard to the batters. Obviously, Shreyas, captain, Ishan Kishan, Samson, Sooryavanshi, and then there are all-rounders, Tilak Varma; I think that's where the balance is quite tricky. Where will he bat?" de Villiers said.

Tilak's recent numbers also underline why his position could become a talking point.

Since the 2026 T20 World Cup, the left-hander has scored 255 runs from 10 innings at a strike rate of 159.36, with three scores of 50 or more. However, the numbers need some context. One of those half-centuries came during the recent Zimbabwe series, while another was scored in the fifth T20I against England, by which point India had already conceded the series.

His overall returns therefore look stronger in isolation than his performances across the entire period suggest. Tilak endured a particularly difficult run during India's tour of the UK, and his inconsistency has remained a concern despite the occasional big score. That makes his position in India's batting order an even bigger talking point ahead of the Afghanistan series.

The presence of Shreyas Iyer, Ishan Kishan, Sanju Samson, Abhishek Sharma and Vaibhav Sooryavanshi gives India several batting options, while the team also has to factor in its all-rounders.

For de Villiers, the challenge is not simply about selecting the strongest players but finding a combination in which every batter has a clearly defined role.

He believes India have enough quality in their squad to deal with Afghanistan, but stressed that clarity will be particularly important against a side he considers dangerous.

"Really, really strong squad, but the balance will be tricky to figure out. It is T20 cricket, so they can play around with the squad a little bit. There are different roles, but the role clarification will still be incredibly important for India, as

Bridgerton's first leading lady, Phoebe Dynevor, has said "I do" herself after marrying fiancé Cameron Fuller on Saturday, September 5, according to a report from The Sun.
The actress who famously plays Daphne Bridgerton in Netflix's Shondaland hit is poised to continue her romantic streak onscreen with the streamer's highly anticipated adaptation of Emily Henry's Beach Read. When it comes to Dynevor's own fairytale, her nuptials reportedly took place at Le Mas de Poiriers, an 18th-century farmhouse in Provence, France.
The property, which accommodates up to 250 guests, spans 65 acres, and among the crowd celebrating Dynevor and Fuller's big day were her mother, Coronation Street actress Sally Dynevor, and her sister, Hattie. It's unclear if any of Dynevor's Bridgerton costars were in attendance at the shindig. The insider source for The Sun revealed that the event "ended up being absolutely perfect."
Dynevor and Fuller began dating in 2023 before becoming engaged to be married in 2024, when it was confirmed during her red carpet appearance at the Met Gala that year. The wedding follows Dynevor's "hen do," a.k.a. bachelorette party, which took place in August at the Broadwick Soho.

A source claims that Prince William and Kate Middleton are in no rush to react to the Sussexes' return to the UK. According to the insider, the couple is watching the developments from the sidelines and sees no need to communicate anything publicly. Prince Harry and Meghan Markle arrived in the UK on August 26 and are currently staying in private accommodation outside London.
A source told PEOPLE that Prince William and Kate Middleton are avoiding any "knee-jerk" reaction to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's return to the UK. "They are watching this ***** e. It's private — they don't feel the need to say anything or demonstrate anything outwardly," they said.
The insider also claimed that the Waleses are in no rush to restore their relationship with the Sussexes. They added that their reconciliation "will be a slow build. There is a deep sense of betrayal."
Earlier, Royal expert Richard Palmer stated that the Waleses may need to coordinate with the Sussexes to avoid any diary clashes. In i-Paper, he explained that though Markle and Harry will continue to be private individuals, they will eventually garner significant media interest. This could also potentially overshadow the working royals.
"While visiting a charity in Los Angeles may go largely unnoticed, there will be far more media attention when they carry out visits in the UK, especially if one of the working Royal Family is doing something similar and possibly trying to communicate a different message, sources said," he explained.

RHONY alum Jill Zarin has come under fire after posting a video about her experience at celebrity chef Alain Ducasse's restaurant in ******* an. The 62-year-old TV personality criticized her experience after apparently misreading a sign.
In a now-deleted post, Jill shared a video, "Okay, I finally have something to complain about. I'm in a department store at an Alain Ducasse little post thing. I want to show you this, okay?"
She then revealed two ice cream flavors, each matched with a coordinating cone. The chocolate came in a chocolate cone, while the vanilla was served in a vanilla cone. She said, "I asked them if I could have a chocolate ice cream in this [vanilla] cone … She said no. I said, 'Why not?' No reason, just because. So, my girlfriend got vanilla in the [vanilla] cone, and she says, 'You know, I don't mind. I wouldn't mind the chocolate cone. Just swap them out.' The answer was [still] no."
Jill suggested that the issue could be a ******* an-specific practice or something related to Alain Ducasse. She said she planned to tag the celebrity chef and ask why his staff could not accommodate her request. Jill pointed to the sign, which said customers could have their ice cream served in "a cone or a cup of your choice," and explained that she chose chocolate ice cream in a vanilla cone.
But according to a photo posted by Mr Marcus White on Instagram, the sign reads, "a cone or a cup, your choice," rather than "a cone or a cup of your choice." Netizens did not hold back, taking aim at Jill over her complaint. One of them wrote on Reddit, "If she's in ******* an, and I lived there for a few years, YOU DO NOT ask to modify items on a menu. No one will tell you why. It's simply not done. If you go to a nice enough restaurant, they will gladly prepare something special for you, but they will tell you how it will be prepared and not the other way around."

A royal expert claims Prince Harry and Meghan Markle want the "best of both worlds" with their UK move. She alleged that they want access to the royal family while maintaining their independent lives in the US. The Sussexes arrived in the country on August 26 and are reportedly looking for private accommodation outside London.
Royal commentator Kinsey Schofield told Fox News Digital that Harry and Markle's latest move to the UK could be more about testing the waters than a permanent relocation. She said, "I suspect they want the best of both worlds — access to Britain, proximity to the monarchy and the credibility that comes with Harry's royal identity, while maintaining the freedom and commercial opportunities they ***** ociate with life outside the U.K."
The commenter added that their current arrangement seems familiar to the "half-in, half-out" policy, which Queen Elizabeth rejected when they left the UK in 2020. She further cast doubt on the Sussexes' true plan, unable to comprehend whether they are back in the country permanently or simply want the experience of the "best of both worlds."
"Harry and Meghan never do what they say or say what they mean. One year ago, Harry told us the U.K. was not safe enough to bring his wife and children. Now someone is briefing the Daily Mail that Harry has a 15-year plan in the U.K. Alternatively, we're briefed this could be temporary," she elaborated. Schofield described their current arrangement as a trial rather than a permanent homecoming.
Recently, another royal commentator, Lady Colin Campbell, shared an update on whether the royal family would accept the Sussexes, now that they're back. She said, "The family wants absolutely nothing to do with her and as little to do with Harry as possible." She also stated that people who want to remain in the good books of the Waleses and the monarch would be unlikely to ***** ociate themselves with the Sussexes.

The Los Angeles Rams have historically been OK with a lack of size at the cornerback position. Their last few draft picks—although rare—have demonstrated this from Cobie Durant and Derion Kendrick to the likes of Tre Tomlinson.
But the Rams did something very out of character this offseason: they made a major free agent signing and brought in a player with real size attributes. Jaylen Watson is listed at 6-2 and 197 lbs.
The addition of Watson got lost in the shuffle during the aftermath of LA's trade for higher profile corner Trent McDuffie, his Kansas City teammate. McDuffie also fits the Rams' preference or accommodation of smaller defenders, although he has a strong lower half and is a willing tackler out of the slot.
However, in Week 1 against the San Francisco 49ers, Watson may be the more important contributor out of the two.
The San Francisco 49ers' biggest offseason addition was receiver Mike Evans. It wouldn't be wise for the Rams to ask McDuffie to cover one of the most physical receivers in the NFL—this is a job for Watson.

Only 49% of restaurant operators said they plan to grow their staffing levels this year, down from 60% in 2025, according to Toast's Voice of the Restaurant Industry Survey.
However, 48% said they plan to keep the same number of staff, an increase of 10 points compared to last year, per the survey of 676 operators.
This shift indicates that retaining talent, rather than hiring new workers, is becoming more important for the restaurant industry as key measures of labor turnover have stabilized.
The unemployment rate in accommodation and food service has hovered between 5% and 7% in recent months, reaching a low of 5.6% in July, suggesting that restaurants aren't reducing their staff counts, unlike other industries.

Throughout his 19-year tenure leading the Pittsburgh Steelers, former head coach Mike Tomlin managed roster dynamics that required equal parts tactical precision and human understanding. Few relationships were as critical, or as heavily scrutinized, as the dynamic between Tomlin and his Hall of Fame-bound quarterback, Ben Roethlisberger.
During a recent appearance on "The Dan Patrick Show," Tomlin provided rare insight into how he successfully coached Roethlisberger's famously off-script, backyard style of play, revealing why trying to box in his star quarterback was never an option.
When asked how he handled a quarterback who occasionally preferred playing outside strict play calls, Tomlin explained that effective leadership means tailoring the system to the individual rather than forcing a rigid structure.
"More than anything, man, it's my job to make sure his talent show up and to bring the game to him," Tomlin said. "I think different players digest the game in different ways and play with different styles. Ben didn't like constraints, and so I always wanted to accommodate that when I was capable."
That flexibility allowed Roethlisberger to thrive during key moments, producing iconic, game-extending plays that defined an era of Steelers football. Rather than viewing Big Ben's freelancing as a breakdown in discipline, Tomlin recognized it as the core mechanism of his quarterback's genius.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle reportedly declined a major accommodation offer from Princess Diana's brother, Charles Spencer. For those unversed, as per multiple reports, the Sussexes flew privately from California to Birmingham on August 26. Harry and Meghan are reportedly staying in a private, non-royal home while retaining their Montecito and Portugal homes.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle reportedly refused accommodation offered by Princess Diana's brother, Charles Spencer. As per Rob Shuter's sources, Spencer proposed to the Sussexes the possibility of using The Falconry. Notably, it is the iconic 17th-century lodge on the Spencer family's Althorp Estate in Northamptonshire. However, Harry and Meghan reportedly rejected the offer from Spencer as it was too remote and not grand enough for their liking.
The source dished: "Harry was genuinely moved because Althorp will always be sacred ground to him. But Meghan took one look at the reality and knew it wouldn't work. Too remote, too far from London and, frankly, not nearly grand enough."
The source further explained that the ***** ss of Sussex has grand ambitions attached to her UK comeback and the house reportedly does not fit into the grand scheme of things.
An insider explained: "Meghan isn't moving back to Britain to hide away in an old lodge in Northamptonshire. She wants privacy, history and security — but she also expects serious luxury, substantial ***** e and easy access to London. This wasn't even close."

The Los Angeles Rams and the San Francisco 49ers will meet at the famed Melbourne Cricket Ground next week in what the NFL intends to be the first of many regular-season games in front of its growing Australian fan base.
The league also is determined to play those games at Australia's biggest stadium during the first week of the NFL's regular season — even with a major scheduling problem obstructing that goal in 2027.
The 100,000-seat MCG could be unavailable to the NFL at this time next year because it will be occupied by the Australian Football League postseason, which begins in early September. The AFL accommodated the NFL this year, but doesn't intend to do the same in 2027, according to Australian media reports.
Without going into details, NFL executive vice president Peter O'Reilly downplayed the potential for disruption caused by this scheduling conflict during a conference call Wednesday to highlight the league's upcoming Australian debut.
"We have great partners in the MCG and the AFL, and I know we'll work to a good solution there that allows the NFL to continue to play in Australia on an ongoing basis," O'Reilly said.

MD Sass, a boutique ****** et management firm, published its second-quarter investor update for its flagship, the "MD Sass Concentrated Value Strategy." The letter can be downloaded here. In the first half of 2026, AI infrastructure stocks led the market, with the Russell 1000 Value increasing by 16.3%, outpacing the S&P 500 (10.2%) and Russell 1000 Growth (5.3%). This growth was fueled by semiconductor, memory, and hardware companies benefiting from AI development, even though they are considered cyclical. These sectors, representing only 7.7% of the Russell 1000 Value at the start of the year, contributed nearly 70% of its returns. The portfolio gained 10.0% in the second quarter, net of fees, compared to 13.9% for the Russell 1000 Value Index. Year-to-date, the strategy returned 6.6%, net of fees, versus 16.3% for the Index. The portfolio faced challenges due to limited exposure to companies with the greatest upside from AI infrastructure investments. It also lacked exposure to the Energy sector, which returned about 20% in the first half amid geopolitical tensions with Iran that increased commodity prices, affecting performance. The firm recognizes the importance of adapting its strategies while maintaining core investment principles as it explores future opportunities in emerging technological themes. Also, check the fund's top five holdings to see its best picks in 2026.
In its second-quarter 2026 investor letter, MD Sass Concentrated Value Strategy highlighted Knight-Swift Transportation Holdings Inc. (NYSE:KNX). Knight-Swift Transportation Holdings Inc. (NYSE:KNX) is a freight transportation services provider that operates through Truckload, Less-than-truckload (LTL), Logistics, and Intermodal segments. On August 28, 2026, Knight-Swift Transportation Holdings Inc. (NYSE:KNX) closed at $67.24 per share, reflecting a market capitalization of $10.94 billion. Knight-Swift Transportation Holdings Inc. (NYSE:KNX) posted a one‑month return of ‑1.04%, while its shares gained 54.24% over the past 52 weeks.
MD Sass Concentrated Value Strategy stated the following regarding Knight-Swift Transportation Holdings Inc. (NYSE:KNX) in its Q2 2026 investor letter:
"Knight-Swift Transportation Holdings Inc. (NYSE:KNX) operates the largest full-truckload fleet in North America and operates approximately 21,000 tractors across its irregular route and dedicated fleets. Excluding fuel surcharges and intersegment transactions, Truckload represents approximately 63% of revenue, less-than-truckload represents 19%, logistics 8%, and intermodal 5%.
Trucking is a cyclical, fragmented, and historically low-margin business, and for those reasons we have avoided it. So why own it now? We believe the industry is entering a rate cycle that is meaningfully different from the demand-driven cycles of the past. This cycle is being manufactured on the supply side through a combination of economic attrition, regulatory enforcement, and increased legal liability. Importantly

Paige Bueckers sees her first major tournament for the U.S. women's national team alongside fellow newcomers Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese as the natural course of one generation replacing another.
The Dallas Wings star wants to be clear, though. This FIBA World Cup — not to mention any Olympic or other international event that might follow — isn't some sort of entitlement.
"We don't take it for granted and think we're entitled to it just because we feel like it's our time now," Bueckers said. "We had to earn it, we had work for it and we're all extremely grateful for that. We've been competing with and against each other our whole lives, and something that I admire is their work ethic and what it took to get here."
Team USA begins pursuit of a fifth consecutive World Cup ***** le against China on Friday in Berlin in the first of three games in group play. The WNBA is taking a nearly three-week break to accommodate the tournament.
For Bueckers, Indiana's Clark and Atlanta's Reese, it means putting aside thoughts of the looming WNBA playoffs to start what each would hope is a long international career. They were together when the U.S. won a World Cup qualifier in Puerto Rico in March.
