Sandy Paws Rescue Inc., a foster-based rescue in Massachusetts, recently introduced a six-year-old French bulldog named Joannie who is looking for her forever home. The local animal rescue explains: “Joannie was found as a stray extremely emaciated and less than half her current weight now. She was missing fur on her body, face and ears. She has been nursed back to health and is doing wonderfully. While her age and exact history is unknown, it is clear she has mothered more than enough litters in her short lifetime.”

We wrap up another work week with a massive MLB DFS slate Friday, and as such we are going to go by pitching category. There are a whopping 15 different pitchers I’m considering in some form or fashion, so since it is not only a large slate in general but also one with a robust number of pitching options to choose from, we are (or at least I am) going to relax our ownership considerations a bit. There are also a bunch of extremely attackable arms with bad park context to boot, and so I doubt we see a ton of concentration on any one offense either. Overall, a very wide open slate, and it should allow us to embrace the chaos.

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.

NANTERRE, France (AP) — Caeleb Dressel touched the wall and shouted in triumph. He threw his fists to the air and high-fived U.S. fans during a victory lap. Then, finally, he found his family and gave his wife and baby boy celebratory hugs and kisses.  Dressel only knows the top of an Olympic podium in a decorated career. As the veteran on a youthful U.S. men’s swim team, Dressel added another relay victory to his long list Saturday night, anchoring the winning 4x100-meter freestyle foursome as the Americans beat out the rival Australians and scrutinized Chinese.  “Relays are a little more special to be honest,” Dressel said. “So doing it with these guys has been awesome. It takes me back to my first gold. It really doesn’t get old. Really special standing on the podium with these guys watching the flag go up. I’m extremely proud of them. It made my job easy.”
