When Chris Williamson, a student from Manchester, Georgia, put $20 into cryptocurrency Rocket Bunny, he didn’t expect to become a trillionaire overnight. Yet, temporarily at least, that appeared to be what happened. The nursing school student had dabbled in cybercurrencies for around eight months and invested in the currency on June 15. On June 16, its value had soared to more than $1.4 trillion. When Newsweek spoke with Williamson on Monday, it was worth $167 trillion....

Castillo's scouting report? "He's still got it," Castillo told Tommy Birch of the Des Moines (Iowa) Register on Wednesday. Castillo is in Des Moines for rehab games with the Cubs' Triple-A affiliate. We already knew that Ramirez can still hit the ball a long way. We'll see what he has once he begins his new job as a player-coach in Iowa.

Technically he’s been re-hired. The 12-time All-Star spent last season as a player-coach with Chicago’s Triple-A Iowa team. Players reportedly had a lot of praise for Ramirez so the Cubs decided to expand his duties. According to the team’s relase, Ramirez will work with the team’s major and minor league hitters on the fundamental and mental aspects of hitting. In addition to Ramirez, the team also hired former MLB player Kevin Youkilis as a scouting and player development consultant....

The New Yorker magazine published a scathing article in May 2018 which laid out four women’s claims of sexual abuse at the hands of Schneiderman, a report which led to his resignation within hours. The Cuomo administration responded to the story about the self-proclaimed champion of women’s rights by immediately calling for his resignation from office. Citing a “damning patter of facts and corroboration laid out in the article,” Cuomo joined several state leaders in pushing for Schneiderman to resign....

According to Rivals.com rankings, seven schools picked up five-star running backs this year, a deep class featuring Leonard Fournette (LSU), Joe Mixon (Oklahoma), Racean Thomas (Auburn), Sony Michel (Georgia), Dalvin Cook (Florida State), Elijah Hood (North Carolina) and Jalen Hurd (Tennessee). It boosts morale for the fans heading into spring practice, but wearing that five-star label can quickly become a curse. It's certainly not a guarantee for future NFL success....

Nowadays, thanks to research and advances in medicine, many people with CF live well into their thirties and the average survival rate in 2016 was age 37. Decades ago, however—before the advanced technologies and treatments we have today—the life expectancy for those with CF didn’t extend past early childhood. The Story Behind the Term “65 Roses” The term “65 roses” was coined in the late-1960’s, by Richard (Ricky) Weiss a four-year-old with cystic fibrosis....

Today’s two afternoon games (Mariners-Orioles, Cubs-Brewers) are not included in the Playbook, as we don’t recommend playing all-day or two-game slates. Sometimes we have trouble finding high-quality pitchers, but it’s finding hitters that’s tough today. There’s definitely some good pitching, but the one issue is that a few of them are matched up against each other (Max Scherzer vs. Matt Harvey; James Shields vs. Jeff Samardzija). Chris Sale makes an interesting matchup against Houston, who tend to hit lefthanded pitchers well but also bring a big strikeout upside....

This is important to know if you’ve heard about daith piercing and are thinking of trying it in order to deal with chronic or episodic migraine headaches. Despite the anecdotal “evidence” that’s built up around this, with no scientific evidence to support it as an effective migraine therapy, experts do not recommend it. What Is a Daith Piercing?

While previewing the game, Norman told the media he was not impressed with Prescott’s 405-yard performance against the Giants in Week 1. “You stand back there in the pocket all day and go through your first, second and third reads and come back to your first one, OK, cool. Anybody can do that,” Norman said, via the Associated Press. “You could throw the ball if that’s the case.” Prescott got his revenge in several moments during the game, starting by burning Norman with this 51-yard touchdown pass to Devin Smith:...

On his right was an exact replica of the grandfather clock Earnhardt had just won, his first in 30 attempts at the half-mile track. To his left was his father, the late Dale Earnhardt Sr., peering out from a picture on the wall, a photo with Neil Bonnett taken at the speedway in the early 1980s. The clock — one of the most coveted trophies in NASCAR — is similar to the many presented to race winners at the track over the last 50 years....
