Democrat Maxwell Alejandro Frost made history at the 2022 midterm elections as the first person from Generation Z to be elected to the U.S Congress. Frost, 25, won Florida’s 10th congressional district, defeating Republican Calvin Wimbish. “WE WON!!!! History was made tonight. We made history for Floridians, for Gen Z, and for everyone who believes we deserve a better future. I am beyond thankful for the opportunity to represent my home in the United States Congress....

The Hawks have been adding a “W” to their Twitter name for every consecutive victory. Now that they’ve won 17-straight games, Twitter has no idea how to handle it. They’re also giving the fans at Philips Arena a show by jazzing up routine occurrences. Such was the case last week when their mascot Harry The Hawk put his best dance moves on display to Mark Ronson and Bruno Mars’ “Uptown Funk” during a timeout....

Claira Janover, who worked at Deloitte after graduating with a degree in Government and Psychology from the Ivy League college earlier this year, previously said she had been getting death threats over her TikTok video calling out those who have “the nerve, the sheer entitled caucasity” to say All Lives Matter. “Imma stab you,” Janover said. “Imma stab you and while you’re struggling and bleeding out, Imma show you my paper cut and say, ‘My cut matters too....

In the past week, data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has shown that an average of just over 47,000 Americans received their first vaccine dose, the lowest rate since December 2020. With virus cases largely on the decline and an increasing number of states moving away from mask and vaccine mandates, it appears that those who remain hesitant to get the jab may see less of a reason to change their minds....

Teigen had a line of cookware with Target under the name “Cravings.” The range is also sold in Macy’s. Target removed the line from its website as part of a previously agreed change with the company whereby Cravings is no longer exclusive to Target. Target confirmed the move to Page Six: “We made the mutual decision in December to no longer carry the cookware line, given our continued focus on brands we develop and that can only be found at Target....

A dramatically late Champions League quarterfinal exit to Real Madrid and an EFL Cup final shootout defeat to the Reds in February means the FA Cup is the only English trophy left for Chelsea to win before the season ends. The Blues only need to avoid defeat or win one of their final two league matches of the season to guarantee a spot in the group stage of the 2022/23 Champions League, but the league otherwise holds little interest for fans....

Can any of what the Browns owner says be believed, or trusted, though? His track record on sound football decisions can’t reasonably be filling the fan base with excitement. The best they can hope for is that he keeps his promise of stability.

Iran will follow through on its threat to withdraw from the Additional Protocol of the Non-Proliferation Treaty, which affords IAEA inspectors access to nuclear facilities. However, Rouhani’s government reached a “temporary bilateral technical understanding” with IAEA Director General Rafael Mariano Grossi to retain access for the next three months. The number of IAEA inspectors allowed in the country will not change, but inspections will be more limited. Iran will also stop sharing video recorded by cameras at some nuclear facilities for the next three months....

Jagr, now skating with the New Jersey Devils at age 42, scored three goals to take down the Flyers, 5-2. MORE: NHLPA investigating Flyers’ trip | Five Hawks earn early all-star spots | Blackhawks lose Verteeg Many of the Flyers remember Jagr, who played in Philadelphia in 2011-2012, for his famous work ethic and his fun-loving demeanor. But on Saturday night, they were reminded of his greatness. He scored two goals in the first period to help stake New Jersey to a 3-0 lead and added a third in the second period to surpass Gordie Howe as the oldest player to score a hat trick....

But he was hardly untrained, having earned a doctorate in architecture, which must have involved drawing classes. He was born in 1914 near Bucharest, Romania (a country he called “pure dada”), went off to study in Italy in 1932, and then fled fascism to the United States in 1941. Steinberg got out of Europe with an expired passport brought up to date with his own rubber stamps. After military duty in the Pacific (he instructed Chinese guerrillas in demolition), and a stint in North Africa with the OSS (he drew anti-Nazi cartoons for leaflet bombing), Steinberg commenced his amazingly prolific career–85 covers and more than 600 drawings for The New Yorker magazine alone....

RUMOURS: Alexis offered £400,000 a week to leave Arsenal Lucas Perez’s second goal against Basel featured 33 passes before the striker netted beyond Tomas Vaclik, the most before any strike during the group stage. The summer signing went on to add a third to complete his hat-trick before Alex Iwobi wrapped up a 4-1 win as Arsenal finished as Group A. Paris Saint-Germain’s surprise 2-2 home draw with Ludogorets saw Arsene Wenger’s side leapfrog their French counterparts and claim a top spot for the first time since 2011-12....

NEWSWEEK: How big was the quake in Hawaii and where was the epicenter? Bruce Presgrave: At 7:07 a.m. in Hawaii, we had an earthquake with a preliminary magnitude of 6.6. It occurred about six miles from Kona, Hawaii, along the west coast of the big island of Hawaii. It was followed about seven minutes later by a magnitude 5.8 aftershock. We’ve been continuing to see small aftershocks, mostly in the 3 range, since then....

Following a blocked kick last weekend against Western Carolina, linebackers coach Sean Duggan did that celebration with one of his players, but it ended up horribly. According to Hawaii News Now, Duggan suffered pretty bad injuries including a dislocated elbow and a fractured wrist. What happened is the player, Viane Moala, mistankingly used his helmet during the jump, making contact with Duggan’s arm. While Duggan suffered pretty bad injuries, he’s not letting them stop him from doing his job....

No longer. Forget the touristy luaus with “Americanized” versions of local delicacies. These days restaurant menus in Hawaii are likely to offer such specialties as grilled opakapaka (Hawaiian snapper) in a macadamia-ginger-basil pesto, tempura of Kona lobster roll or chicken breasts stuffed with spiced mango. Mashed taro (the tuber used to make the island specialty known as poi) is the de rigueur replacement for ordinary mashed potatoes, and coconut-creme-spinach sauce is as ubiquitous as brown gravy at a Southern truck stop....

A court date has yet to be set since the drugs have been sent to a private lab to be processed, Banks County Assistant District Attorney Sam Skelton said. The procedure could take several months.

The Nashville star opened up about her experience with alcohol and opioid addiction in a frank interview about her substance abuse issues, and how they affected her personal life and career. Panettiere, who shot to international fame as a teenager when she landed a role in the series Heroes and was acting from the age of 11 in soap operas and Remember the Titans, revealed that she was offered various substances from adults from a young age....

Relentless Chelsea see off Bournemouth Kante, of course, is Chelsea’s destroyer, as underlined by the fact that his assist was his first for the Blues, in what was his 30th appearance for the club. However, he is encouraged to get forward when he can in Antonio Conte’s brilliant 3-4-3 formation, which not only brings the best out of the France midfielder but also Hazard. Thanks to the protection of Marcos Alonso and Nemanja Matic, Hazard has the license to go looking for space down the left-hand side whenever he chooses and it is telling that he has now matched his best ever goal return in the Premier League (14)....

After the disappointments of their UEFA Champions League exit and their defeat to local rivals United, Pep Guardiola’s side looked like their old, dominant selves at Wembley on Saturday. The 3-1 scoreline flattered the hosts as Raheem Sterling’s strike proved enough to clinch the Premier League title with five games remaining, after United surprisingly fell at home to West Brom on Sunday. Sterling’s showing earned him a score of 88/100 on the Goal Pressure Index, presented by Sure and powered by Opta data, to lead the Pressure Index Team of the Week....

Hazard was given the armband ahead of Euro 2016 due to Vincent Kompany’s injury absence and the Chelsea star will remain in that role for the foreseeable future. Kompany has been back in contention this season, but he has continued to pick up niggling injuries that have forced him back into the treatment room. Coach Roberto Martinez confirmed on Wednesday that Hazard will continue as captain even when Kompany is present in the squad, though the 25-year-old will not be looking to develop similar characteristics to his skipper at club level....
