Oct. 29—VERMILLION, S.D. — Long before Austyn Modrzewski became the starting quarterback at the University of South Dakota, he was a first grader in Littleton, Colorado, who had already discovered something special about throwing a football.
He initially lined up at running back when he started playing tackle football. But it did not take long for those around him to recognize that the ball belonged in his hands, and preferably in the air. Even at that age, Modrzewski was doing something rare for a young player in his area: leading an offense that could throw the football.
By second grade, he was training specifically to play quarterback. Sunday mornings and several days throughout the week became practices for his mechanics, improving his footwork and developing a position that had already become his passion. By third grade, he was learning to read defenses.
Football was never simply something Modrzewski played. It was something he worked to understand. He competed across state lines, trained year-round and developed an appreciation for the quarterback position long before most children his age had even thought about their athletic futures.
"I always wanted to be a running growing up back because they always get the ball," Austyn Modrzewski said earlier this season. "And in the first practice, we didn't have a quarterback so I kind of just stepped up and started throwing some ****** . I had fun doing it, and I was like, 'I'm not half bad at throwing.'"

Christa Pike, the death row inmate who last week survived Tennessee's attempt to execute her, remained hospitalized on a ventilator Monday, according to her attorney.
He said it was still unclear whether Pike would regain consciousness but urged the state to "take death off the table" by commuting her sentence, renewing an earlier request that the governor denied before her botched lethal injection.
"The least that could happen now is that we at least take death off the table and start looking for what the future could be for her," attorney Steve Ferrell, of the Federal Defender Services of Eastern Tennessee, told "CBS Mornings."
Ferrell added that he and the rest of Pike's legal team were "certainly willing to discuss that with the governor, with whoever could make that decision."

President Donald Trump on Saturday pressured Republican Sen. Tom Cotton of Arkansas to support a bill to make daylight saving time permanent, urging Americans to call what appeared to be the personal cellphone number of Cotton, the chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee.
The Sunshine Protection Act passed the House in July, but it faces roadblocks in the Senate where some Republicans are strongly opposed. Proponents, including the White House, argue that the change would provide more daylight during the times that Americans are most active. Detractors said permanent daylight saving time would lead to darker and potentially more hazardous winter mornings when children will be waiting for school buses and parents will be driving to work in darkness.
It was a remarkable escalation on Trump's part of a longstanding fixation shared by both men — with Trump supporting making daylight saving time permanent, and Cotton vociferously opposed — at a time just weeks before the midterms, when Republicans would prefer that the president focus on talking about affordability issues and the party's achievements. Cotton is also up for reelection this November, although that race is not expected to be competitive.
Daylight saving time is that period between spring and fall when clocks in most parts of the United States are set one hour ahead of standard time. Not all states observe it — and under the bill, states can opt out of the change if their respective legislatures act to do so before the bill's enactment.
"It's a lot of work for a lot of people, running around for two days, changing all the clocks in the house," Trump told reporters as his left the White House on Saturday for a rally in Vandalia, Ohio. "It discombobulates everybody," he said.

Josh Duhamel has revealed how his decision to enter the testosterone business left him fearing that he could be run out of Hollywood because his fellow A-listers would "make fun" of him—while opening up about the very different life he has built away from Los Angeles.
The 53-year-old "Ransom Canyon" star recently spoke about his experience with testosterone replacement therapy, revealing that his former representatives had warned him that publicly attaching himself to the treatment could damage his image and career.
Duhamel, who co-founded men's health company Gatlan, said during an appearance on Dave Asprey's "The Human Upgrade" podcast that he initially had reservations about becoming so publicly involved with the company because of the potential response in Hollywood.
"I won't tell you the agency that I'm no longer with, but they said, 'Don't do it. It's bad for your image,'" he recalled. "And I was like, 'All right, watch.'"

Cathie Wood, head of Ark Investment Management, often buys her favorite tech stocks when she sees a new opportunity.
That's what she did last week, pouring $27.9 million into Meta Platforms (META) as the company pushes deeper into AI.
Last year, the flagship Ark Innovation ETF gained 35.49%, far outpacing the S&P 500's return of 17.88% in the same period. So far this year, Wood's flagship Ark Innovation ETF (ARKK) is up 8.66% as of writing, while the S&P 500 surged 11.85%, Yahoo Finance data shows.
Wood gained a reputation after the Ark Innovation ETF delivered a rosy 153% return in 2020. But her style also brings painful losses in bearish markets, as seen in 2022, when the ETF tumbled more than 60%.
Those swings have weighed on Wood's long-term gains. As of Sept. 11, her Ark Innovation ETF has delivered a five-year annualized return of -6.89%, while the S&P 500 has an annualized return of 11.42% over the same period, according to data from Morningstar.

Jean Smart could set a brand-new record at the 2026 Primetime Emmy Awards on September 14. If she wins in the Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series for her role as Deborah Vance in the final season of Hacks, she'll be the first comedy lead actor to win for every season of a single television series.
Plus, the win would give her eight acting Emmys, which would tie the all-time record with Julia Louis-Dreyfus and Cloris Leachman.
With Smart back in the spotlight because of the awards show, we're taking a deep dive into her love life, including her current romance and her relationship with her late husband.
Smart is in a relationship with Joe Pacheco. While it's unclear exactly when they started dating, they made their red carpet debut at the 2024 Emmy Awards, then attended the Golden Globes together in 2025. Pacheco was once again Smart's date to the Emmys in 2025, Golden Globes 2026, and was by her side at the premiere for Hacks' final season in April.
The actress told CBS Mornings in June 2025 that she was dating a "wonderful actor." When she appeared on the Wiser Than Me podcast in May 2026, she called her boyfriend an "extremely lovely man" and said she met him at a friend's party.

Belgium took the wind out of the United States men's national team's sails this summer during the 2026 World Cup. Before that humbling 4-1 defeat in the Round of 16, a controversial decision from FIFA effectively made the USMNT an enemy, at least according to Belgium defender Thomas Meunier.
The 35-year-old Meunier, who has 83 caps for Belgium and just represented the country in his third World Cup, explained to The Athletic that, because of head-turning call to suspend Folarin Balogun's red-card suspension, "everyone wanted us to beat America."
"Everyone wanted them to be eliminated," he added more than two months after the July 6 match, per The Athletic.
Balogun himself has admitted that, even though he was relieved to be on the pitch for the knockout match, hearing that he'd be part of the squad was bittersweet.
"My initial reaction was I was happy to be back in the team, but when I kind of started to reflect, I knew it was going to cause a lot of controversy, and I could almost see within my teammates a bit of nerves because it's something that's so unique," Balogun told "CBS Mornings" in July.

During a September 10 interview with Gayle King on CBS Mornings, Stella, 77, opened up about her older sister's death on August 25 at 80.
"I haven't heard from anybody in Nashville since my sister passed away," she admitted. "I haven't had one condolence from anyone — anybody that I know, entertainers that I know. ****** ody. Not one."
Additionally, Stella speculated on the reason for radio silence. "I'm ****** uming it might be because of my political, you know, activism on social media," she said. "I don't know."
Dolly Parton's sister, Stella, told gayleking in an exclusive interview that she hasn't received condolences from "anyone I know" in Nashville — which she said might have something to do with the political opinions she shares on social media.

Pierce Brosnan thinks the Lucifer star Tom Ellis could be the next James Bond. Ellis revealed what the former 007 star told him about potentially taking up the role of James Bond.
James Bond casting could have another contender, as Pierce Brosnan reportedly believes Ellis has what it takes to play the role. While talking about his upcoming drama CIA, Ellis told Metro U.K., "When I got the script, the character of Colin was this enigmatic tinderbox of many things that he has to sit on. The more research I did about the CIA, the more interested I was in playing him."
Ellis said his research for the role left him fascinated by the CIA and its work.
Ellis plays Pierce Brosnan's son in The Thursday Murder Club. When asked whether Brosnan gave him any advice for his new spy role, he said, "No, he didn't. But he did tell me he thought I'd make a good Bond, and I was like, 'Pierce, I think I'm probably too old now. But I'll take it from you, mate. I'll take it from you.'"
Tom Ellis is not currently among the actors widely rumored to play James Bond. His run as Lucifer Morningstar ended five years ago.

Dolly Parton's younger sister, Stella Parton, 77, says that she knew what the country singer—famous for her high-glam, Southern belle aesthetic—looked like without makeup.
"She looked like me without makeup," Stella joked during an interview with Gayle King on CBS Mornings.
The quotes come just over two weeks after Dolly's death at age 80 following a "brief battle with cancer."
When it came to fashion and beauty, Dolly Parton affirmed that more is more.
Throughout her seven-decade music career, the country singer achieved beauty icon status with her sky-high platinum-blonde hair and high-glam makeup. As such, Dolly would rarely be caught without makeup on—even in front of those closest to her.

In an appearance on CBS Mornings, Stella revealed that Dolly was just as fabulous in private as she was in her public life. She revealed that Dolly was meticulous with her makeup, with Stella never seeing her without it.
"Not after she got to be 'Dolly Parton.' No, she would sleep in her makeup when she would come spend the night with me," she said. "I wouldn't! I sleep with a pillow over my head."
"Oh, I knew what she looked like, of course!" she added. "Because she looked like me without her makeup, so I knew what she looked like without it."

Dolly Parton's death from an undisclosed type of cancer on August 25 at the age of 80 shocked her fans around the globe. Now, nearly a month later, her younger sister Stella Parton is opening up about the last thing Dolly said to her.
The two sisters spoke every Tuesday over coffee. In a candid interview with CBS Mornings' Gayle King, Stella revealed, "That's the last thing Dolly asked me for, was prayer." While she didn't say much more about their final conversation, she did open up to King, sharing her thoughts on Dolly's state of mind during the queen of country's last few weeks.
"I know she was at peace. Because I could always tell by looking at her face, even if I hadn't seen her in months. On camera, I could tell if she was hurt, angry, happy, or sad, or felt bad. I could see it on her. She's my sister, you know, and we were very close as a family. She knew where she was going. She wasn't going anywhere bad. She was going to be with mama and daddy."
CBS Mornings posted clips from the emotional interview on Instagram early on Thursday. Parton's fans (both Dolly's and Stella's) flocked to the video, sharing their thoughts, memories, and praise for both sisters.

Dolly Parton's sister, Stella Parton, is reflecting on the late singer-songwriter choosing to keep her battle with cancer private and her family's choice not to disclose the type of cancer.
While Stella Parton echoed what other relatives have said about Dolly Parton not wanting to share her cancer diagnosis publicly because she didn't want to worry her fans, she added, in an interview with Gayle King that aired on CBS Mornings Thursday, that the family is also choosing not to share what kind of cancer Dolly Parton was battling because they got the sense Dolly Parton wanted to keep it private.

Dolly Parton's sister Stella has shared new details about the late singer's long-lasting relationship with her famously private husband, Carl Dean.
The Queen of Country died August 25 at age 80 after a "brief battle with cancer." She was preceded in death by her husband, who died in March 2025 at age 82.
Dolly and Carl eloped in 1966 and remained together until his death. Their relationship was largely kept under wraps due to his private nature, though she would offer up bits of information about their marriage every so often in an interview.
Now, her sister, Stella, has provided some insight into their relationship just weeks after Dolly's death.
"He adored her," Stella said of Carl in a new interview with Gayle King that aired Thursday on CBS Mornings. "He was fascinated with her. He thought she was funny like Tinkerbell," she continued, adding that he was "quiet and shy."

Even with legions of adoring fans across the globe, Dolly Parton never let the spotlight change who she was.
From choosing a small, private funeral over a lavish send-off to asking well-wishers to skip flowers and gifts in favor of donating to her Imagination Library, the 80-year-old country music icon, who died on August 25, stayed grounded in what mattered most to her: people, not possessions. Given that, it's no surprise the final thing she asked of her sister was something simple and heartfelt.
"The last thing Dolly asked me for was prayer," Stella Parton, 77, told Gayle King in an interview with CBS Mornings posted on Thursday, September 10.

Stella also said she sensed her sister had found peace before she passed. She explained that she'd always been able to read Dolly's emotions just from her expression, even after long stretches without seeing her in person — whether she was in pain, upset, joyful, or simply worn out, it showed on her face. The two, she said, had always shared a tight-knit bond as siblings.

The leader of Reform UK in Scotland has said a second independence referendum is "a long way off".
The Scottish government last week published its draft independence referendum bill, setting out the details of the proposed question and who would be allowed to vote.
But Malcolm Offord told BBC Radio Scotland's Mornings programme that there would need to be a "groundswell" of support for a fresh poll.
In 2014 Scotland voted against becoming an independent country by 55% to 45%.
Successive UK governments have opposed any further referendums and Downing Street recently said a new vote was "off limits".

Gayle King took nothing away from the bride but certainly captivated guests with her mother-of-the-groom style at her son's June 2024 wedding. The "CBS Mornings" host was all smiles in photos and videos she shared from the event, including a stunning snap with her son, William "Will" **** pus Jr., and longtime best friend, Oprah Winfrey, who hosted the lavish oceanside nuptials at her home in Montecito, California. "Favorite son Will found the girl of his dreams and now lovely elisemariesmith is an official member of the family," King captioned an Instagram post. "It was truly a spectacular family wedding!"

Considering how Gayle King's best on-air looks are a colorful masterclass in fun fashion, she brought that same flair when selecting her mother-of-the-groom attire. The morning news anchor looked radiant in a graceful powder-blue gown by designer Amsale, who also created the bride Elise Smith's wedding dress, King revealed in her Instagram post. King completed the elegant look with a matching light blue shawl and sequined clutch. **** pus looked dashing in a classic tuxedo, finished with a black bowtie and patent leather shoes. Meanwhile, Winfrey embraced her role as the ultimate wedding host in a light pink ruched gown and salmon-colored clutch. Oprah Winfrey and Gayle King proved they're the ultimate BFFs when King praised her best friend for putting together such a beautiful setting for her son's big day.

The stock market has been so good for so long, that it's making some investors suspicious. The S&P 500 index (SNPINDEX: ^GSPC) has delivered a total return of 593% in the past 15 years. The tech-heavy Nasdaq-100 index has done even better with a total return of 1,150% during that time.

Can the good times on Wall Street really keep going? What if the artificial intelligence (AI) boom that has powered hundreds of billions of dollars of capital expenditure and investor excitement turns out to be overvalued and overhyped? What if we're overdue for a bear market?
During any given day, month, or year, the stock market can lose value. This is why day trading and short-term speculation can be so risky and unlikely to succeed. But I'm not focused on what happens in the stock market tomorrow or this year.
Any money I invest today is going to be left invested for the next 10 years or more. And as a long-term investor, I believe that no matter what happens next, as a long-term investor, it's a good decision to keep investing in the Vanguard Morningstar Total Stock Market ETF (NYSEMKT: VTI).

Lily Allen shares two daughters with her ex-husband, Sam Cooper. The former couple were married from 2011 to 2018.
They welcomed their first daughter, Ethel Mary Cooper, in November 2011. Their second daughter, Marnie Rose Cooper, was born in January 2013.
Allen has been a dedicated mom ever since, prioritizing her daughters over her music career.
When Lily Allen's most recent album, West End Girl, was released in October 2025, Allen proved she wasn't afraid of pushing **** ons. Getting candid about her split with ex-husband, Stranger Things star David Harbour, Allen gave fans a glimpse into a **** py and heartbreaking period of her life.
But while perception might say that Allen's album was made solely for Harbour, it was actually about showing up for her daughters, Ethel, 14, and Marnie, 13. "One thing that I wanted to do was show my kids that you can use that pain and harness it and turn it into something else," Allen told CBS Mornings. "It's as much for them as it is for me."
