Lewis Wood retained his central area super-featherweight title with an exciting, hard-fought decision victory over Faraqat Ali at Bowlers Exhibition Centre in Manchester. In December, Wood, 8-2, won his title by getting off of the canvas to beat the previously unbeaten John Edwardson in a thrilling fight and he took Ali’s ‘0’ after dragging the Yorkshireman into another toe-to-toe battle.

It is often said that you never get a second chance to make a first impression but Solomon Dacres gets the opportunity to do just that in Birmingham on Saturday night. In November, and just days after signing with Queensberry Promotions, Dacres, 8-0 (2 KOs), was quickly given a platform to defend his English heavyweight title. The fighter in the opposite corner – Michael Webster – may have brought an unbeaten record with him but, in reality, he was there to provide Dacres with a respectable name to showcase his talents against,

Caitlin Tan wanted to breed her childhood horse, JP, because she’s been “amazing” — the type of animal any equestrian would be lucky to have once in a lifetime. Having access to coveted bloodlines increased the allure. Via the Miller Ranch, she could pair her 18-year-old mare with a stud descendent of Playboy’s Buck Fever.

Cats of Kansas City

Now that we have all had our fill of grilled burgers and fireworks, let's look at some unsung Americans--cats. Did you know that there are nearly 100 million cats living in the United States? I'm not sure who counted all of them, but that's a lot of cats. Enough to sway an election were they given the right to vote (which, of course, they should be). Unfortunately, many of those cats don't have a place to call home. Here are six cats, all in the greater Kanas City area, who would love it if you might consider giving them a bed, a litter box, and a bowl full of kibble.

Although this refreshing drink went viral on TikTok last summer, it's been around a lot longer. Yes, you may have noticed, the drink is called lemonade, but it's made with limes. Brazilian lemonade is thought to have originated in Brazil by a street vendor. According to All Recipes, in Brazil, the drink is called limonada Suíça, which translates to Swiss lemonade. The beverage isn't Swiss, but the Swiss company, Nestlé, began selling condensed milk in Brazil in the 1900s, which could be where the drink got its name.
