Ghislaine Maxwell has been quietly moved from the low-security federal prison in Tallahassee, Florida to a minimum-security facility in Bryan, Texas—a shift that has raised serious questions. The timing of her transfer, which occurred shortly after a closed-door meeting with senior officials at the Department of Justice, is especially suspect. That meeting, reportedly centered on Maxwell providing names connected to Jeffrey Epstein's trafficking network, was followed by this abrupt relocation to a prison camp known for its lighter restrictions and more comfortable conditions. It's not hard to see this for what it looks like: a reward, not a coincidence.The prison camp in Bryan, Texas is a far cry from even the modest constraints of Tallahassee. Dormitory housing, no perimeter fencing, minimal supervision—this is not where you send someone convicted of trafficking girls to billionaires. While survivors continue to fight for accountability and answers, Maxwell is being eased into a facility that resembles a quiet retreat more than a prison. Critics argue this reeks of backroom deals and institutional privilege—further proof that in the American justice system, those with connections can still trade secrets for comfort while the people they helped exploit remain invisible and unheard.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Epstein accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell quietly moved out of Fla. prison

60 Minutes reports on how the flight logs found in a plane in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., uncovered Argentina's notorious death flights during its dictatorship in the mid-1970s – serving as key evidence of the country's lethal scheme that “disappeared” thousands of innocent citizens whom they viewed as a threat. Correspondent Jon Wertheim revisits this dark and traumatic period in Argentine history, meeting the pair of investigators who discovered the plane, and families of the victims who were thrown to their deaths. This is a double-length segment. Host John Oliver's highly lauded show, “Last Week Tonight,” gives him a Sunday night platform to unleash searing, satirical takes on the politics and problems of America, his adopted homeland. So how did this Brit become one of this country's sharpest comedians? Correspondent Bill Whitaker travels to the U.K., and goes behind the scenes in New York, to trace Oliver's comedic journey.

“Spooky” is a rarity in 1960s pop tunes, because it charted on the Billboard Hot 100 three times in a dozen years with renditions by three different groups.The song began life as an instrumental. With Harry Middlebrooks Jr., Atlanta saxophonist Mike Sharpe (Shapiro) wrote the song and made the 1967 pop charts with it in the U.S. and Canada.Enter The Classics IVBut the song is much better known as a vocal by The Classic IV, whose James Cobb and producer Buddy Buie added lyrics about that “spooky little girl like you.” It was their band's first big hit, charting in February 1968, No. 3 in the U.S. and No. 1 in Canada.The group had begun five years earlier in Jacksonville, Fla., as a cover band, playing Ventures numbers and instrumental takes on “Misty” and “Summertime.” After a while, fans started requesting vocals.“I can sing,” said one of the founders, drummer Dennis Yost, and that led to a whole new chapter in the group's story.Relocating to Atlanta in the mid-'60s, The Classics IV landed a contract with Imperial Records. A trio of hit records followed, each with one-word titles, “Spooky,” then “Stormy” and “Traces,” all of which have since become popular cover standards.The Third Charting“Spooky” hit the charts for the third time in 1979 when J.R. Cobb and bandmate Dean Daughtry left The Classics IV to be part of the Southern rock band Atlanta Rhythm Section.There Cobb and Daughtry helped ARS record “Spooky,” again with production assistance by Buie. It was the second of two singles released from Underdog, the group's 8th studio album. ARS's version of the song hit No. 17 in the US on Billboard and No. 15 on Cash Box.Gender BendingBut a decade before the ARS recording came Dusty Springfield's 1968 version of “Spooky.”Released as a single worldwide except in the U.S., this gender-flipped version was featured prominently in Guy Ritchie's 1998 film, Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels. Springfield's take on the tune was certified gold in 2024.There were at least two other gender-bender versions. Lydia Lunch sang of a “spooky little boy” when she included the song on her 1980 Queen of Siam album; Martha Reeves inserted a similar rendering on her In the Midnight Hour album in 1986. The latter is especially fun. In her version, Martha also swapped the line "spooky little girl like you" line with "spooky old lady like me.”Floodifying ItThis song was born at jam sessions, with an infectious rhythm and a couple of funky chords that invite all kinds of improvisation, making it a fine fit for The Flood.It's the latest tune that Randy Hamilton and Danny have brought to the band room, complete with those Classics IV lyrics. Here's a take from last week's rehearsal. This is a public episode. If you would like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episodes, visit 1937flood.substack.com

About my goal. The Pikes Peaks ride is 36.70 miles up and down, 7000 feet of climbing starting from 7000 feet elevation in Manitou Springs Colorado. The total time to go up and down is 4 hours with an average speed of 9.1 mph. How should I prepare? Here's a high-level 12-week training plan tailored for a cyclist preparing to ride Pikes Peak via the Pikes Peak Highway, focusing on climbing strength, altitude adaptation, and endurance. The plan assumes a goal of completing the ride in 4 hours, with an average power of 173W and a total of 36.7 miles and 7,000 feet of climbing. Save the following for next week's Ask A Coach Ask A Coach: Should I run a full marathon in a buildup to full IRONMAN?  Coach, I'm getting ready for my full distance IRONMAN this Fall. What do you think about me doing a full marathon as a build up to the IRONMAN? That's awesome—you're gearing up for one of the most demanding endurance events out there! Preparing for a full-distance IRONMAN (2.4-mile swim, 112-mile bike, 26.2-mile run) requires a smart balance of volume, intensity, and recovery. Your question about whether a full marathon is necessary or ideal is a great one, and it really depends on your goals and current training status. Is a Full Marathon Necessary for IRONMAN Prep? While many athletes include a marathon in their build-up, it's not always the most effective or safest choice. Here's why:   Pros of Running a Marathon Before IRONMAN: - Mental confidence boost from completing the distance. - Opportunity to test nutrition, pacing, and gear. - Simulates the fatigue and mental grind of the IRONMAN run.   Cons: - High injury risk due to the pounding and recovery time required. - Doesn't replicate IRONMAN fatigue (you'll be running after 6–8 hours of swimming and biking). - Can disrupt your training cycle due to the taper and recovery needed.   Viable Alternatives to a Marathon Here are some smart substitutes that can build endurance and race readiness without the downsides of a standalone marathon: 1. **Century Ride (100-mile bike)** - **Pros**: Low-impact, builds aerobic base, simulates IRONMAN bike leg. - **Use it for**: Nutrition testing, pacing, and mental endurance. - **Pair it with**: A short brick run (e.g., 6–10 miles) to simulate race fatigue.   2. **Long Swim Events (e.g., 5K–10K open water)** - **Pros**: Builds swim confidence, improves pacing and sighting. - **Use it for**: Practicing open water skills and wetsuit comfort. - **Pair it with**: A bike ride or short run for a swim-bike brick.   3. **Race Simulation Bricks** - **Example**: 80-mile bike + 13-mile run. - **Pros**: Mimics IRONMAN fatigue better than a standalone marathon. - **Use it for**: Testing gear, nutrition, and pacing under fatigue.   4. **Back-to-Back Long Runs** - **Example**: 12 miles Saturday + 10 miles Sunday. - **Pros**: Builds run durability with less injury risk than a marathon. - **Use it for**: Building cumulative fatigue without a single long effort. Coach's Summary Recommendation Unless you're chasing a marathon PR or need the mental boost, **skip the standalone marathon**. Instead, focus on **race-specific brick workouts**, **long rides**, and **progressive long runs**. These will better prepare you for the unique demands of IRONMAN day. Get Gritty Tip: My 2025 Misogi! Going into today's Pikes Peak ride, I was very unsure of what to expect. I heard from Rich that this was an annual challenge he has done since 2017 and this was something he looked forward to every year. Personally, I had not yet been on the Pikes Peak Highway nor had I really ventured into learning about it, other than what Coach Rich shared with me in prep. Even with the lack of personal knowledge, I stared at that mountain for over a year and a half and knew full well that this was going to be an EPIC day. I also knew that this was to be my 2025 Misogi.  If you remember back to earlier in the year, we talked about the concept of a Misogi which I was first introduced to in Michael Easter's book, The Comfort Crisis. A Misogi is an ancient Japanese practice of purification and redefined by modern thinkers as a way to push boundaries, build resilience, and challenge what's possible. The rule? You must pick a challenge so big and audacious that there's at least a 50% chance you won't succeed. It should be something far outside your comfort zone, forcing you to confront your limits—and then go beyond them. For me, riding Pike's Peak Highway on a road bike climbing possibly to the 14,115 ft summit was it. I knew I had a 50% chance or less of completing it on the first try. Well, I definitely stretched my limits and went beyond them. There was one point where I was shaking and felt altitude sickness. Coach Rich gently checked in with me and we agreed to go section by section, at my pace. I'm sure I showed up on a few people's instagram reels as I was leaning over my bike trying to catch my breath and not hurl. I kept smiling, laughing, swapping war stories with Rich and got my crazy ass up to the brake check station.  Even though we didn't make it to the summit, I was so freaking proud of how deep I dug and how far I came to my “braking” point. It seemed fitting for us to call it there and start our descent. When we reached the bottom, Rich asked how I was feeling, and I told him that I was excited to try again next year and see how much further I could progress. He was relieved and saw instantly that even though I didn't reach the peak, a fire for growth was lit, and that my friends is the whole purpose of a Misogi! Because here's the truth: Misogis aren't about the summit. They're about discovering what's inside you when the odds are uncertain, the air is thin, and your legs are screaming. It's about who you become when you lean into the challenge rather than back away. I didn't conquer the mountain that day—but I did conquer the voice inside me that said I couldn't. And that's what lit the fire to try again. So now it's your turn. What mountain—literal or metaphorical—are you willing to stare down in 2025? Pick something bold. Make it matter. And don't do it alone. We'll be here cheering, supporting, and swapping war stories right alongside you. Get gritty. Go big. Grow. That's your Get Gritty Tip of the week!   TriDot Workout of the Week: Stamina Ride   Today's workout is all about endurance and power. You'll focus on maintaining your race position, building stamina at different intensities, and keeping a solid rhythm throughout each effort. This is a great session to build consistency and mental toughness, key ingredients for triathlon success.   Warmup 10 min @ Z2 with 3 x 30 sec (30 sec) Spinups and 3 x 1 min (1 min) @ Z4     Main Set 2 x 12 min (5 min) @ Z4 (10 min) 1 x 20 min @ Z3 Balance of time @ Z2 Session Note When performing longer stamina sessions, stay in race position as if racing. Sit up to stretch periodically if you tend to tighten up. Then get back into race position. Aim to make the last repeat of each effort level as solid as the first. Perform Z2 and Z3 efforts @ 90+ rpms. Perform Z4 efforts @ 80 rpms. Motivational Tip: Focus on consistency today. The goal is to make your last interval as strong as your first. Whether you're climbing the hills in a race or pushing through the final miles, staying steady and focused will make the difference. Your race position isn't just about form—it's about creating efficiency and strength, even when the legs feel tired. Stay in the zone, push through those stamina efforts, and keep your legs moving. You're building the strength and endurance needed to power through the toughest parts of your race.     Fun Segment: Pikes Peak: Fact or Fiction? Alright listeners, it's time to ascend into madness with a brand new segment we're calling Pikes Peak: Fact or Fiction? We're taking on one of Colorado's most iconic climbs—the infamous Pikes Peak Highway. Rich, your mission—should you choose to accept it—is to tell us which of these high-altitude statements are real… and which are just altitude-induced hallucinations. 1. “Race cars use jet engines for added thrust to ascend Pikes Peak.” Answer: Fiction Why: While competitors use high-output, turbocharged engines (like 875 hp Peugeot 208s) to counter altitude-induced power loss, nobody is bolting jet engines to their cars at PPIHC. 2. “Runners have passed out at the summit due to thin air and needed oxygen revival.” Answer: Fact Why: The Pikes Peak Ascent and Marathon finish at the summit (14,115 ft), where oxygen levels are roughly 60% of sea level . There are documented cases of athletes needing supplemental oxygen at the summit aid station after fainting or showing symptoms of altitude sickness. 3. “Pikes Peak birthed burro racing alongside donkeys up the mountain.” Answer: Fiction Why: Burro racing—known as “pack burro”—did originate in Colorado, but traces back to historic mining routes in Leadville and Fairplay, not Pikes Peak. The first official pack‑burro race began in 1949 along Mosquito Pass between Leadville and Fairplay. 4. “High-altitude summer temps can freeze fuel lines in race support vehicles.” Answer: Fiction Why: Although summit temperatures may dip near freezing—even snow in summer—modern fuel systems aren't vulnerable to frozen fuel lines in mild conditions. In truth, volume and moisture are the real culprits, and freezing requires much more frigid temperatures. 5. “There's a ‘Double' marathon—one run to the summit one day, and the full marathon back the next.” Answer: Fact Why: Known as the “Doubler,” this brutal challenge combines the Pikes Peak Ascent and the full Marathon on consecutive days—summit in one, summit and return the next. That's it for this round of Pikes Peak: Fact or Fiction?! Did you get them all right? Let us know how you scored—and if you've got altitude stories or mountain myths, we'd love to hear and share them!   Closing:   Thanks again for listening this week. Please be sure to follow us @303Triathlon and @grit2greatnessendurance and of course go to iTunes and give us a rating and a comment. We'd really appreciate it! Stay tuned, train informed and enjoy the endurance journey!

In which The Curmudgeons take a big ol' dukey on that most prominent of rap-metal bands Limp Bizkit. The band is surely one of the worst hard-rock outfits to make it big since cranking up guitars real loud became a thing. Its plodding, uninspired riffage was eclipsed only by its misogynistic, corroded worldview and ultra-dumb lyrics. We dive into the rock's dregs here, analyzing the band's origins as well as its first four albums, all of which are awful. It all begs the question: How the heck did Limp Bizkit get so huge, anyway? We attempt to answer that question.    Marvel in horror at the awful music of Limp Bizkit by accessing out Spotify plylist for the episode: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5s6kczKDwbpVDYt3DoTiaD?si=f88d0b956bcf4120   Here's a handy navigation companion to this episode.   (00:52 - 06:15) - Arturo Andrade sets the parameters for our discussion of Limp Bizkit   (15:04 - 29:52) - The Parallel Universe, featuring reviews of new albums by Ty Segall and King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard   (30:50 - 38:56) - We discuss the origin story behind Limp Bizkit's improbable rise from the underground of Jacksonville, Fla., to corporate rock's front burner   (40:03 - 1:18:23) - We break down why this band's first four album are, in fact, truly terrible and even offensive.

Das Eisschild Grönlands schwindet und mit ihm gleitet Camp Century langsam ins Nordpolarmeer. Ein Podcast über eine Umweltkatastrophe aus Nachlässigkeit. Ein Podcast vom Pragmaticus.Das Thema:Was werden Sie in diesem Podcast hören? „Eine bizarre Geschichte“, so fasst es Horst Machguth zusammen. Der Glaziologe an der Universität Lausanne hat sie 2016 publik gemacht: Es geht um eine verlassene Militärbasis auf Grönland. Camp Century in der Arktis lag einmal tief im Firn Grönlands vergraben. Die US-Militärbasis sollte nach dem Sputnikschock im Oktober 1957 eine Bastion gegen die Sowjetunion sein und war für die Zukunft gemacht. Diese Zukunft ist jetzt da, und sie ist anders als die Erbauer glaubten. Das Eis schmilzt, und die Stadt unter dem Eis gleitet unaufhaltsam in das Nordpolarmeer. Eine tödliche Fracht voller Schwermetalle, Altöl und radioaktivem Abfall.Camp Century wurde schon 1967 aufgegeben, der Kalte Krieg hatte neue Technologien und Wege gefunden. Schon zu Beginn der Grabungen war klar, dass der Firn keine Stollen trägt, dass die Idee mit den Abschussrampen im Eis nicht funktioniert. Es lohnt die Frage: Wie konnte es zu einer derartigen Fehleinschätzung der Folgen kommen? Antworten geben: Horst Machguth, der Glaziologe, der die Welt als Erster über das Vermächtnis von Camp Century informierte; Jakob Abermann, ein Meteorologe und Gletscherforscher, der das Schicksal des Eisschilds auf Grönland erforscht und Heinz Gärtner, Politologe und Experte für den Kalten Krieg.Camp Century liegt etwa 240 Kilometer östlich der Thule Airbase (Pittufik), das ist jene, die der Vizpräsident der USA, J.D. Vance, Ende März 2025 besuchte. Für die Thule Airbase wurden die ursprünglichen Bewohner zwangsumgesiedelt, von Uummannaq (Thule) in das neu gegründete Qaanaaq.Gebraucht hat man die Militär-Basis im Firn nie. Sie war eine reine Cover-Aktion. Doch auch als solche war sie schon überflüssig, bevor sie fertig war.Unsere Gäste in dieser Folge: Jakob Abermann ist Meteorologe und forscht an der Universität Graz am Institut für Geographie und Raumforschung. In seiner wissenschaftlichen Arbeit dreht sich alles um Klima, Eis und Schnee: Es geht um Wechselwirkungen zwischen Kryo- und Atmosphäre. Nach Forschungsaufenthalten in Chile, ist Grönland sein Forschungsschwerpunkt und wegen der oft jahrelangen Feldforschung häufig der Lebensmittelpunkt. Auf Grönland erhobene Daten sollen Aufschluss über Vergangenheit und Zukunft des Klimawandels geben.Heinz Gärtner ist Politikwissenschaftler, er lehrt an der Universität Wien, leitet den Beirat des International Institute for Peace (IIP) und ist Vorsitzender des Strategie- und Sicherheitspolitischen Beirats des Österreichischen Bundesheeres. Er leitete als wissenschaftlicher Direktor das Österreichische Institut für internationale Politik – oiip. Seine Forschung über die USA, Fragen internationaler Sicherheit, Abrüstung und Rüstungskontrolle führten ihn unter anderem an die Universitäten Erlangen, Stanford, Oxford und die Johns Hopkins in Washington, an denen er als Gastprofessor tätig war. Heinz Gärtner hat neben Fachbeiträgen zahlreiche Bücher geschrieben, zuletzt erschien von ihm Ideen zum positiven Frieden. Der Kalte Krieg ist einer seiner Forschungsschwerpunkte.Horst Machguth ist Glaziologe. Er lehrt und forscht an der Université de Fribourg in der Schweiz zur Massenbilanz von Gletschern und Eisschilden. Seine Forschung ist für das Monitoring der globalen Eisressourcen bedeutsam, ebenso wie für das Verständnis der geophysikalischen Prozesse in Eisschilden und Gletschern. Das grönländische Eisschild ist einer seiner Schwerpunkte.Credits:Trump: „One way or another“: NBCNews, 4.

Au Mali, Wagner, c'est fini. Les troupes russes vont maintenant faire la guerre sous le nom d'Africa Corps. Pourquoi ce nouveau nom ? Est-ce seulement un changement de casquette ? « Pas si simple », répond Arthur Banga, qui est spécialiste des questions de défense à l'université Félix-Houphouët-Boigny d'Abidjan, en Côte d'Ivoire. L'enseignant-chercheur veut espérer qu'Africa Corps commettra moins d'exactions que Wagner contre les civils maliens. Arthur Banga répond aux questions de Christophe Boisbouvier. RFI : « Bravo à Wagner qui en trois ans a bouté les terroristes de nombreuses zones du Mali et reconquis la capitale régionale de Kidal », disent les médias pro-russes. Est-ce que c'est vrai ? Est-ce que le bilan militaire de Wagner est positif ? Arthur Banga : Il est très mitigé ce bilan. Il y a quand même la victoire de Kidal qui est importante pour l'image déjà de la reconquête mais importante aussi pour la stratégie du gouvernement malien. Mais depuis justement cette victoire significative en novembre 2023, il n'y a plus rien. Il y a plutôt des défaites : Tinzaouatène... Tout récemment, des attaques qui se multiplient. Et je pense que, quelque part, l'action de Wagner est mitigée, sinon peut-être même négative quand on fait la balance.  Alors, en effet, en juillet 2024, plus de 80 mercenaires de Wagner auraient été tués par les rebelles touaregs du FLA lors de la bataille de Tinzaouatène. Est-ce que cette défaite militaire a pu porter atteinte au moral des troupes russes ? Est-ce l'une des raisons du changement de nom aujourd'hui ? Oui, ça a été une défaite beaucoup commentée. Et puis, on a encore les images de prisonniers qui ont été faits par ces groupes. Et qui sont toujours aux mains des rebelles... Voilà. Et ces images diffusées ont vraiment porté atteinte parce que l'idée, c'est que Wagner venait de réussir le job que, par exemple, l'armée française ou Takuba n'avait pas pu faire. Et là malheureusement pour les Maliens, le constat est amer et cette défaite a marqué les esprits. Et a surtout décrédibilisé un peu Wagner, surtout après leur victoire à Kidal. Alors, justement, si on compare le bilan Wagner au bilan Barkhane, qu'est-ce qu'on peut dire ? Je pense que l'on peut tirer les mêmes enseignements de ces deux opérations : soit vous vous trouvez dans le cas de Barkhane, vous devenez perçu comme une force d'occupation, vous perdez votre statut de force de libération pour une force d'occupation. Soit comme Wagner, vous comprenez que l'on peut avoir des victoires tactiques, mais au final, le bilan est mitigé. Est-ce que Wagner faisait de la protection rapprochée des officiers supérieurs de la junte malienne ? Et est-ce qu'Africa Corps va continuer cette mission ? La mission ne va pas changer. Et on l'a bien vu sur certaines images très claires, authentifiées, que Wagner faisait souvent de la surveillance de personnalité. De la protection en fait ? De la protection, oui. Sur le plan opérationnel, Wagner jouissait d'une certaine autonomie, surtout du vivant d'Evgueni Prigojine. Est-ce qu'Africa Corps sera plus sous le contrôle direct du ministère russe de la Défense à Moscou ? Oui, ça, ça sera l'un des grands changements, parce que justement Prigojine s'est autorisé des largesses au nom de cette autonomie. Donc, clairement, la plus grande différence sera à ce niveau-là, ça sera l'impact direct des autorités russes, le contrôle direct sur l'action que va mener Africa Corps. Et ça, ça va changer de l'autonomie de Wagner. Sur le plan des droits de l'Homme, Wagner a commis plusieurs massacres, notamment dans la communauté peule du Mali. À Moura près de Mopti, en mars 2022, plus de 500 civils ont été tués par les Russes de Wagner. Est-ce que les Russes d'Africa Corps sont prêts à continuer les mêmes exactions à votre avis ou pas ? On verra. Si Wagner faisait le job entre guillemets et même sur le front ukrainien, recruter des prisonniers etc, c'est parce qu'on ne voulait pas mêler directement la Russie officielle à ces aspects-là, les massacres et cetera. Ça peut donc avoir un impact positif dans ce sens-là parce que le fait d'être lié directement au Kremlin peut avoir la conséquence d'être un peu plus regardant sur ces aspects-là, parce que ça peut remonter directement sur la réputation du Kremlin et de la Russie. On peut donc espérer qu'il y aurait moins d'exactions, même s'il faut rester vigilant et prudent.  Parce qu'Africa Corps, ça responsabilise directement Vladimir Poutine ? Beaucoup plus que Wagner. Sur le plan économique, Wagner crée des compagnies minières pour exploiter les ressources locales aussi bien au Mali qu'en République centrafricaine. Que va-t-il en être maintenant avec Africa Corps ? Je pense que la logique va se perpétuer, peut-être pas avec les mêmes acteurs, peut-être pas directement avec Africa Corps, qui va sans doute se concentrer sur ses aspects militaires. Mais il faut bien voir que l'on est dans une opération stratégique dans le sens large du terme, c'est-à-dire qu'on fait à la fois du politique, du militaire, du diplomatique, mais aussi de l'économie. Et donc, la Russie n'entend pas perdre les gains économiques de Wagner. Ce n'est pas possible. « Notre présence en Afrique s'accroît, nous allons nous concentrer principalement sur l'interaction économique et l'investissement », affirme Dmitri Peskov, le porte-parole du Kremlin. Ça va se traduire comment sur le terrain économique ? Aujourd'hui, l'un des reproches que l'on fait justement à la Russie, c'est de n'apporter sur le continent que son savoir-faire militaire. Aujourd'hui, elle va aussi essayer de montrer qu'elle sait être un partenaire économique fiable au même titre que la Chine, les pays occidentaux. Wagner, c'était pour trois ans, Africa Corps, c'est pour 30 ans ? Sauf changement de régime, je pense que la Russie est encore pour le moment au Mali, au Niger et au Burkina, dans un cadre plus durable, dans un cadre plus global. Et vous avez rappelé les mots de Peskov : c'est, aujourd'hui, asseoir à la fois du militaire, du diplomatique, de l'économique et même du culturel.

Rob Thomas and James Symons, Director of Agronomy at Anthem Country Club, discuss the challenges and achievements of water conservation at the Las Vegas facility. Symons highlights the club's efforts to reduce water usage by 25% by converting fairways from perennial ryegrass to Bermuda grass, saving nearly 50 million gallons in 2024. Despite member concerns, the transition was successful, with Bermuda grass providing better playability and water efficiency. Symons also mentions the use of advanced irrigation systems, soil sensors, and turf radar to optimize water usage. Looking ahead, Symons expresses concerns about future water scarcity and the need for continued proactive measures to sustain the club's operations. Also in the news … Reynolds Lake Oconee announces its eighth golf course. Golf course architect Steve Smyers will design a new private course at the Central Georgia property. Fenmoor Golf Club is slated to open in Fall 2026. This Florida club completed a remarkable comeback after Hurricanes Helene and Milton. Carrollwood Country Club's three nine-hole golf courses were fully restored by early 2025. The Tampa, Fla., club has now returned to full operational excellence, making it difficult to detect that any severe weather events occurred last year. “We were prepared to recover fast,” says Brian Thornbury, Carrollwood's General Manager. Now is the time to prepare. Lastly, Pebble Beach Golf Links will pursue a first-in-nation permit. California Coastkeeper Alliance, The Otter Project, Monterey Waterkeeper, and Pebble Beach Company announce a landmark initiative underscoring joint commitment to water quality in the Carmel Bay.

Seems that right after the middle of May here in Florida, the winds of climate shift and the heat and humidity rise.

On this week's Extra Serving, NRN editor in chief Sam Oches and executive editor Alicia Kelso share their thoughts on the recent National Restaurant Association Show, the biggest restaurant event in the world that's held each year in Chicago. Their perspective? Expect more innovation around beverages, personalization, and AI. Then they discuss Darden's announcement that it would shutter two Seasons 52 locations on the heels of announcing that 15 Bahama Breeze units would close. Is something wrong at Darden or is this just following the trend of other companies course-correcting in a difficult season? Next they talk about McDonald's new late-night hours, which includes much of its system staying open until midnight or later. That follows the announcement that McDonald's would hire 375,000 more employees — clearly beefing up the workforce as it prepares to accommodate the shifting consumer behavior around dayparts. Finally, Sam and Alicia talk about Portillo's intent to expand more into nontraditional locations, starting with a new unit in the Dallas-Fort Worth airport. Find out why they think this is a smart move for the Chicago-based hot dog chain.

I always say that this Thursday to Sunday run of the conference tournaments and the Selection Show is the best four-day stretch of every lacrosse season. Teams have spent the last year working toward this, only the best teams are playing, every game is meaningful and the familiarity of playing conference rivals a second time begs for potential drama. May Madness is finally here. Let's revel in it. As always, D-Fly & Dixie are here to get you pumped up for all the games, and we'll preview the semifinal round in every single conference. We'll also talk about a few preseason Top 20 teams that didn't come close to matching the high expectations, and what comes next for those programs. In addition, we'll talk about the NCAA's all-time goal scorer, CJ Kirst, hotel front desks, the Ann Arbor lunch scene, predetermined sites hosting without the home team and much, much more.
