Jaguars use NFL draft to find offensive...

| Entrepreneurship

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) — The Jacksonville Jaguars closed the NFL draft the same way they opened it: by getting quarterback Trevor Lawrence some potential help. Jacksonville ended the three-day event Saturday by selecting Houston fullback Derek Parish in the seventh round, with the 240th overall pick. It might normally be a throwaway choice, especially in a draft that lacked depth, but general manager Trent Baalke and coach Doug Pederson were looking for someone to boost the team’s short-yardage packages….

BAKU, Azerbaijan (AP) — Max Verstappen confronted George Russell in the pit lane following a collision as his teammate Sergio Pérez won the Azerbaijan Grand Prix sprint race on Saturday. Red Bull remains the team to beat in Formula One, with Pérez first and Verstappen third in the sprint, but Verstappen was unhappy after Russell left a hole in his car’s sidepod in the collision, hampering Verstappen’s chances of taking second from Charles Leclerc of resurgent Ferrari. Verstappen walked…

He was selected by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the second round of the NFL draft Friday night. And if he turns out to be as good as the Bucs…

WASHINGTON (AP) — Days out from a surgery and with a young son undergoing chemotherapy, Kyle McHenry was scrambling to figure out if his Florida family will still be covered by Medicaid come Monday. One form on the state’s website said coverage for their sick 5-year-old son, Ryder, had been denied. But another said the family would remain on Medicaid through next year. Still, a letter from the state said McHenry now makes too much money for him, his…

Study: Covid-19 has reduced diverse urban interactions

April 28, 2023

The Covid-19 pandemic has reduced how often urban residents intersect with people from different income brackets, according to a new study led by MIT researchers. Examining the movement of people in four U.S. cities before and after the onset of the pandemic, the study found a 15 to 30 percent decrease in the number of visits residents were making to areas that are socioeconomically different than their own. In turn, this has reduced people’s opportunities to interact with others……

EAGAN, Minn. (AP) — The Minnesota Vikings selected USC wide receiver Jordan Addison with the 23rd overall pick in the NFL draft on Thursday night, giving superstar Justin Jefferson a viable sidekick after the jettisoning of veteran Adam Thielen — and passing on a top quarterback prospect who tumbled down the board. Addison was the fourth consecutive wide receiver taken after none went in the first 19 slots, following Ohio State’s Jaxon Smith-Ngjiba (Seahawks), TCU’s Quentin Johnston (Chargers) and…

On April 14, 1912, the night before the RMS Titanic sank, the passengers in first class dined on a sumptuous 11-course feast. There was a parade of hors d’oeuvres, plus freshly shucked oysters. There was spring lamb with mint jelly, poached salmon with mousseline sauce, filet mignon, roast duckling, and even a vegetarian entrée, marrow farci—with a hollowed out zucchini standing in for an actual marrow bone. The bartenders were pouring Rob Roys, Clover Clubs, and a Robert Burns……

Wolfsburg Autostadt in Wolfsburg, Germany

April 27, 2023

Stepping out of many train stations in Germany, visitors are greeted by the sight of medieval spires and signs pointing towards the Altstadt (old city). The city of Wolfsburg swaps the church towers with the smoke stacks of the Wolfsburg Volkswagen Plant, and in absence of an Altstadt, the city cheekily calls its center the Autostadt (car city). The massive complex pulls double duty as both a major tourist attraction and the beating heart of the city’s economy. Originally……

April 27, 2023

June 27, 1941. A Finnish Army car drives along a dirt road, a few miles from the border with the Soviet Union. Above the vehicle, a line of pines hangs in the air. It looks like an old-school photographic trick, or a surreal painting by a disciple of René Magritte, or a Photoshop clone stamp. But on the side of the road, unseen, stands a young and ambitious photographer named Osvald Hedenström, and there’s no trickery. Hedenström, who turned……
