Pro Hockey Rumors

The Anaheim Ducks are stuck in the middle of the pond. Their playoff drought has now extended to six seasons, on the back of continuously disappointing play from the team’s veterans. The Ducks now seem fully focused on building a new identity — one built around hard-hitting defensemen, shoot-first forwards, and new head coach Greg Cronin. Their moves this summer reflected that personality-building — though a quiet summer elsewhere will keep their expectations low for the 2024-25 season.

In the mid-1970s, Good Timesmade a star of actor/comedian Jimmy 'JJ'/'Dynomite' Walker. However, behind the scenes, the tension between the stars was relatively challenging. According to what Jimmie Walker once relayed, most of the show's cast rarely had any interaction behind the camera. Walker didn't recall having any conversations with actress Esther Rolle, who played his TV mother, Florida Evans, or actor John Amos, who played James Evans, his TV mother.

On Tuesday, licensed Ohio dispensaries began legally selling non-medical marijuana to consumers; however, the drug’s possession, growth and/or usage are still prohibited on Ohio State’s campus.

With fall camp well underway in Columbia, Shane Beamer’s squad is beginning to take shape. The fourth-year head coach is looking to bounce back from a disappointing 2023 campaign which saw the Gamecocks finish with a 5-7 record. The departure of Spencer Rattler is not likely to make this already daunting task any easier, however, as replacing your starting quarterback of two years doesn’t normally lead to improved win totals. That being said, the Gamecocks believe they have a redshirt freshman who just might buck this trend. They also have an SEC veteran ready to step up should he falter. In this South Carolina Gamecocks position preview, we’re diving into the quarterback room to see who the next big star on campus could be, and who will be waiting to take his job should he fall short of the lofty expectations set for him.

Hollywood child stardom has taken its toll on many actors through the decades. Lani O'Grady, for one, found fame in the 1970s on the TV family series, Eight is Enough. O'Grady followed in the footsteps of her brother, actor Don Grady, an original Mouseketeer and member of another popular TV family show: My Three Sons. Their mother, Mary B. Grady, was a talent agent who represented several child actors. But Lani, who would also eventually become an agent, died in 2001 just one week before what would have been her 47th birthday.

No, pallet shelters for people experiencing homelessness don’t fold into caskets. It’s a question a reader posed one of the first times I wrote about pallet shelters. I find the pallet shelters to be more palatable than ice fishing tents. The Colorado Village Collaborative operates both micro-communities and the so-called Safe Outdoor Spaces with the tents. We all learned the tents are not safe when a fire roared through a CVC Safe Outdoor Space, destroying the compound quickly. Officials never disclosed a cause of the fire.
