Witness: Farmington Hills Woman Killed Before Falling Out Two-story Window

NANTERRE, France — Slovakia swimmer Tamara Potocka collapsed poolside Friday morning after a qualifying heat of the women’s 200-meter individual medley at the Paris Olympics. She was given first aid and then carried off on a stretcher. Potocka, 21, was seen wearing an oxygen mask as she was taken away for medical attention.

PARIS — Italian boxer Angela Carini came to the Paris Olympics aiming for a medal to honor her late father and coach, who died shortly after she participated in the Tokyo Games three years ago. But Carini’s performance in Paris lasted just 46 seconds Thursday before she abandoned her bout against Algerian opponent Imane Khelif, with a spot of blood on her trunks. [time-brightcove not-tgx=”true”] Even though Carini said she wasn’t making a political statement about Khelif, who was disqualified from last year’s world championships after failing an unspecified gender eligibility test, the move reopened debate about Khelif’s status. Who is Angela Carini? The 25-year-old Carini competes in the 66-kilogram (145.5-pound) class, otherwise known as welterweight.

Minnesota Governor Tim Walz catapulted onto the national scene as a potential running mate for Vice President Kamala Harris at least in part due to his artful rhetoric—including his deployment of the word “weird.” In one cable news hit after another, he’s used the word describe Republicans, inspiring other Harris surrogates to do the same and earning him praise as a plain-spoken Democratic communicator. [time-brightcove not-tgx=”true”] Whatever the outcome of the competition to be Harris’ number two, however, Walz will continue being influential in one particular area, thanks to his rhetorical skills: in recent years, he has become one of the country’s most skillful climate communicators, even as he has remained relatively unknown to the average American. I got a first-hand view of Walz’s abilities in 2023 when I moderated a discussion with him on the opportunities and challenges in the coming climate-shaped economy.

Earlier this year, I worked with a coaching client who was struggling with sex in her marriage. There was a tension between her and her husband each time he wanted to have sex. She rarely found herself in the mood to participate and had slipped into a pattern of obligatory and unenthusiastic sex with him. She wanted this to change, and in one of our sessions she confessed that, after having her first child, she didn’t know who she was as a sexual person.

We’ve all been there: You settle in for a night in front of the TV, load up the menu screen to see all the different options available, and then just…can’t make a decision. Or perhaps in looking at last month’s bank statement, you’ve decided that some of these monthly fees have just got to go…but which ones? Ever since every entertainment company decided to launch its own streaming service, choice paralysis has become an unwelcome bedfellow.

Is the AI bubble about to burst? Every day that the stock prices of semiconductor champion Nvidia and the so-called “Fab Five” tech giants (Microsoft, Apple, Alphabet, Amazon, and Meta) fail to regain their mid-year peaks, more people ask that question. It would not be the first time in financial history that the hype around a new technology led investors to drive up the value of the companies selling it to unsustainable heights—and then get cold feet.
