Original Title: Tyler Herro when asked about Darius Garland’s comments about picking on weak defenders: “At the end of the day, it’s competitive. But somebody who doesn’t play defense shouldn’t be talking. He don’t play any defense.”
Asked Wednesday night what the key is to playing clean basketball and limiting turnovers against the Heat, Garland said: “Pick on Tyler Herro and take care of the ball. Don’t play in tight spaces and pick on their weak defenders.”
Herro was asked this as well: Is the type of the comment that Garland made inappropriate for a player t
WSJ: Harvard is Hamas
Harvard became directly implicated on Oct. 8, 2023, when the Undergraduate Palestine Solidarity Committee issued a statement endorsed by more than 30 student groups that asserted “the Israeli regime” was “entirely responsible for all unfolding violence.” Students for Justice in Palestine declared Oct. 12 a “day of resistance” and had a “toolkit” ready for the encampments and demonstrations that spread beyond campus. SJP declared that Palestinian students were “PART of this movement, not in solidarity with this movement.” In 2001 there were no such support groups for Islamists at Harvard.
Harvard was a soft target for foreign penetration, having developed an adversarial relationship to the American government and increasingly to the country itself. Veteran

Eyesight rules for motorists unsafe, says coroner
Visual legal standards for motorists is "ineffective and unsafe", a coroner says.
HM Senior Coroner for Lancashire Dr James Adeley:
"The current system for 'ensuring' drivers meet the visual legal standards is ineffective, unsafe and unfit to meet the needs of society as evidenced by the deaths of Marie Cunningham, Grace Foulds, Anne Ferguson and Peter Westwell where the DVLA continued to provide licences to drivers who had failed to meet the legal sight requirements."
Terry Wilcox, of Hudgell Solicitors, representing the families of Mrs Cunningham, Mrs Foulds and Mr Westwell, said loop holes that are available for drivers who want to evade reporting on their eyesight are "jaw-dropping".
Rob Heard, chairman of the Older Drivers' Forum, warned that more people would die if changes were not made soon.

Found this article on BBC News featuring a man named Andrew Hood. He credits Clarkson, Hammond and May for inspiring him to get checked for testicular cancer. It’s worth noting that he got treated and his cancer is in remission. Cheers to that good news! 👏
“Without [Jeremy] Clarkson, without [Richard] Hammond, without [James] May, there is a good chance I would not be talking now."

Non-Transparency Resumed After Pirate Site Blacklist Publicly Exposed in Error
After a German ISP accidentally exposed the country's secret pirate site blocking list to the public, non-transparency was swiftly restored.
Introduced by Rep. Zoe Lofgren late January, the Foreign Anti-Digital Piracy Act (FADPA) attempts to distill well over a decade of site blocking experience amassed by U.S. rightsholders overseas, into a package carefully curated for use on home soil.
Should it become law, FAPDA would allow rightsholders to obtain site blocking orders targeted at verified pirate sites, run by foreign or assumed foreign operators. The proposals as they stand today envision blocking orders that would apply to both ISPs and DNS resolvers, the latter an already controversial trend that has only recen
