The financial services company, in a note to investors this week, said that it believes the AI story is just getting started - and the investments that seem huge today will be dwarfed by the benefits AI will deliver.

Indiana's hiring of Curt Cignetti from James Madison on Nov. 30, 2023, didn't seem seismic or unusual at the time. Other hires in the cycle generated more buzz, both within the Big Ten (Jonathan Smith at Michigan State) and beyond it (Mike Elko at Texas A&M). The January 2024 frenzy that included Kalen DeBoer leaving Washington to replace Nick Saban at Alabama and Michigan promoting Sherrone Moore to replace Jim Harbaugh blew up much more than Cignetti taking the IU job.

The female inmates serving time at the minimum-security federal prison camp in Bryan, Texas, are each provided the typical allotment of two rolls of toilet paper per week. Some of them take special care to avoid running out by ordering extra rolls of Scott - at $2.25 a pop - from the prison's commissary on their once-a-week shopping day. But not Ghislaine Maxwell. She doesn't have to worry about using up all of her supplies because she is given as much toilet paper as she needs. All she has to do is ask.

One Hayward public safety operator received more in overtime pay last year than their base salary. A Hayward Fire Department battalion chief received nearly a quarter-million dollars in overtime. They're just two examples of how the city of Hayward is wrestling to rein in spending fueled by salaries, benefits and overtime. As Hayward revises its 2025-2026 budget after depleting $31 million in its general fund budget, the city is working to rein in its expenses after a 21% increase in salaries and benefits and a 14% increase in overtime that has caused city officials to return to the negotiation table with the city's labor groups.

Advisers warn that retirees frequently spend too freely in their go-go years, when travel and leisure costs peak. The latest Consumer Expenditure Survey from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) found that average annual spending for adults ages 65 to 74 was $65,149, dropping nearly 20% by age 75.

Like many places in Virginia-and the South as a whole-Lexington has a complicated history. Confederate General Thomas J. "Stonewall" Jackson is buried in the mountain town-the graveyard, formerly known as the Stonewall Jackson Memorial Cemetery, was renamed Oak Grove Cemetery in 2020-and Robert E. Lee once served as the president of Washington & Lee University (W&L), then named Washington College.

The idea of the exemption, when you go into the history of exemptions, is to bring attention to an event, You got to see her live, she's lovely to speak to.

A California court on Wednesday denied rapper Tory Lanez's appeal of his guilty verdict on charges he fired a gun at Megan Thee Stallion.

Air Force Capt. Justin Davidson-Beebe, a Tyndall spokesman, said Wednesday that the landlord, Balfour Beatty Communities, had set the policy. "They are enforcing the community standards outlined in the legally binding lease agreement all residents voluntarily sign," Davidson-Beebe said in an email.

Since community standards are set by the privatized housing management company at some installations, standards may vary from base to base."
UCLA baseball coach John Savage doesn't care where you come from, as long as you have grades, skills and character. That's why he had no problem Wednesday signing a junior college player from Switzerland, right-handed pitcher Fabio Bundi, who has a 95-mph fastball. He was one of nine players to sign to grant-in-aids. Bundi, 22, is in his second season playing for Monterey Peninsula College.
