The Dallas Cowboys’ nail-biting 20-15 win over the New York Giants set several new viewership milestones for Thursday Night Football (TNF) on Prime Video, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

The game averaged an impressive 16.22 million viewers.

This remarkable number marks an all-time high for TNF broadcasts on Amazon, and the company added that the game is also the most streamed NFL regular season game in history.

The game showcased the Cowboys’ resilience on the field and showcased a strong run defense after two disappointing performances against the New Orleans Saints and Baltimore Ravens.

It also highlighted the increasing demand for live sports streaming services.

That number isn’t particularly surprising considering the game featured two of the most popular NFL franchises and was only available via streaming and not on live television.

NOTRHVILLE – The 12-year-old boy who was tragically killed by a falling tree at Howell Nature Center has been identified as Declan Carter of Northville in a letter posted on social media.

Carter, a sixth-grader at Our Lady of Victory School and son of Northville City Councilman John Carter, was on an overnight trip to the nature center with classmates when the dead tree reportedly fell on him.

He was flown to University of Michigan Mott’s Children Hospital, where he died Thursday evening.

Northville Mayor Brian Turnbull posted a letter on the city’s social media page Friday morning “with a heavy heart.”

Crack crisis

The space agency is increasingly concerned about leaks in a tunnel connecting the Russian segment of the International Space Station to a docking port, according to a new report from NASA’s inspector general.

Worse, officials still aren’t entirely sure what’s causing it.

“Persistent cracks and air leaks in the service module transfer tunnel pose a major safety risk,” the report said. “And NASA and Roscosmos are working together to investigate and repair the cracks and leaks, determine the root cause, and monitor the station for new leaks.”

In April, NASA “detected an increase in leakage to its highest level ever,” releasing 3.7 pounds of atmosphere daily, a massive increase compared to just under 1 pound in February Ars Technica Reports.

“Although the root cause of the leak remains unknown, both agencies have narrowed their focus to internal and external welds,” the report said.

Fixing the problem could be a difficult one because of the “supply chain issues” that NASA’s contractors are struggling with, a problem that could make maintaining ISS operations even more difficult before the agency officially decommissions them in 2030 goes into operation.

Close the hatch

In June, NASA upgraded the cracking problem to the highest level of concern in its “risk matrix.” Ars Technica reported at the time.

If the leaks persist, NASA and Roscosmos could be forced to permanently close the hatch to the affected tunnel, which would prevent astronauts from using any of the station’s four docking ports.

“According to NASA, Roscosmos is confident that they will be able to monitor and close the service module hatch before the leak rate reaches an unsustainable level,” the inspector general report said. “However, NASA and Roscosmos have not reached agreement on the point at which the leak rate becomes unsustainable.”

This is an unpleasant realization given the space station’s already limited shelf life. In 2030, NASA plans to get help from SpaceX to deorbit the station and allow it to crash into the Pacific Ocean. As Ars points out that NASA and Russia have not yet agreed to continue operations after 2028.

Another option would be to make changes to the station to extend its lifespan beyond 2030, which the inspector general said would “require significant funding” and “require acceptance of increased risk due to its components and aging structures.”

“I think he’s got Fred Flintstone’s feet on him. He tried to run too fast and slipped,” Susquehanna Township head coach Joe Headen said. “So I knew that if we got the ball back and had a chance to play it again, we would.”

In fact, Susquehanna Township got the ball back in the final minutes of regulation and Evans took it to Cyrus in the lowfield on a first-down play near midfield as time expired.

This time, Cyrus stormed down the sideline and into the end zone for a 52-yard game-winning touchdown with 44 ticks remaining in the game and Hanna defeated Middletown 21-14 on a windy, foggy Roscoe Warner Field on Homecoming Night.

Susquehanna Township improved to 5-1 overall and 4-1 in the Colonial Division. They will travel to East Pennsboro next week.

Middletown is now 3-3 overall and 2-3 in the division. The Blue Raiders travel to Line Mountain next week.

THE STARS

Cyrus caught 7 passes for 100 yards, scoring the game-winning score. Evans completed 14 of 25 passes for 235 yards and a touchdown. At running back, he hit the rock 14 times for 100 yards. Jarret Kern played a crucial role in the fourth quarter, catching four passes for 51 yards.

Middletown running back Luis Roman ran 18 times for 81 yards and a touchdown. Receiver Genesisia Ross threw an option pass to Nickayus Zenon for 79 yards and a score to lead the passing attack.

GAME DECISIVE MOMENTS

Middletown took a 14-7 lead by capping a 17-play, 80-yard drive with 8:53 remaining with a 22-yard TD by Roman with 50 seconds left in the third quarter.

Hanna responded, marching 30 yards in six plays, sparked by a 21-yard catch and run by Cyrus. Jayden Riley ran the final two yards to make the score 14-1 with 10:25 left.

Unable to get a critical first down that likely would have expired time and sent the game into overtime, Middletown hit the ball to Hanna at its own 34 with 2:14 left in regulation Playtime.

Evans hit Kerns for a third down and eight for a new set of downs at the Hanna 48 and found Cyrus for the game-winner on the ensuing play.

YOU SAID IT

“We streaked the whole game. We tried and faced a lot of adversity. Finally, at the biggest moment when we needed it, we did it. I feel like we let it go to our heads. It wasn’t a problem in the second half. It took a minute, but we did it,” – Lex Cyrus, Susquehanna Township senior.

“Definitely a tough win but sometimes you have to win ugly and we had to prove to ourselves that we could do it. Today we proved that we can come back, score and win the football game.” – Torin Evans of Susquehanna Township.

“I watched (Middletown) play last Friday and saw a lot of determination from them. I told these guys all week that it wasn’t going to be easy. Tonight showed us a lot about this team. They could have let things slip, but they stuck with it. There were leaders out there and no one ever backed down.”– Susquehanna Township head coach Joe Headen.

John Cena in a car-themed movie sounds like a good fit to us

If you were like me as a child, you might have played with Matchbox cars, pushing these tiny model creations across the carpet and imagining what it would be like to drive them in real life. There will soon be a film about her, starring John Cena.

The film Matchbox Cars follows the phenomenal success of another film from Mattel’s extensive toy range: Barbie. This film became the biggest box office hit of 2023, grossing almost $1.5 billion worldwide. The film received nine Golden Globe nominations and eight Academy Award nominations, winning two and one, respectively.

The Matchbox line of die-cast toys was invented by automotive enthusiast Jack Odell in 1953 and thanks to Apple Original Films a film about it is being brought to life. It will join several other Mattel toy films in the works, including one about Hot Wheels and even Rock ‘Em Sock ‘Em Robots.

Read: John Cena’s Daily Driver is a Honda Civic Type R

The Matchbox film will be produced by David Ellison, Dana Goldberg, Don Granger and Robbie Brenner, while Sam Hargrave, the man behind it, will direct extraction And Extraction IIwith Chris Hemsworth.

However, no details regarding the film’s plot have been released Cena looks like a great addition to the film. The professional wrestler and actor has been a car enthusiast his entire life and still owns the 1989 Jeep Wrangler that he purchased with his first-ever WWE salary. He also owned a stripped-down Ultima Evolution, a Superlite Ford GT replica, a Radical race car, a 1970 Plymouth Superbird, a black Lamborghini Countach and several American muscle cars. He drives a 2024 Honda Civic Type R every day.

While there is no official word on the Matchbox movie’s release date, the announcement is fresh and filming hasn’t even started yet. So it looks like we’ll have to wait a while before we see Cena zooming around in miniature form.

The University of Wisconsin Board of Regents voted unanimously Friday to fire a communications professor who wanted to keep his job after he was fired as chancellor of one of the system’s campuses for producing pornographic films.

Joe Gow, who served as UW-La Crosse’s chancellor for nearly 17 years, argued last week that he should retain a teaching position on campus. But the university’s lawyers argued that he behaved unethically, violated the terms of his employment contract, damaged the university’s reputation and compromised its mission.

The regents met in closed session Friday morning before publicly voting to fire Gow. There was no public discussion before the board vote.

Gow said he is considering filing a lawsuit to keep his teaching job. He did not immediately respond to a message Friday morning.

Gow has been on paid leave from his faculty position since the regents fired him as chancellor in 2023, shortly after university leadership became aware of the videos posted on pornographic websites.

The case has drawn national attention both for the salaciousness of a high-ranking university official making and speaking publicly about pornographic films and for the questions it raises about free speech rights.

Gow argued that his videos and two e-books that he and his wife Carmen published about their experiences in adult films were protected by the First Amendment. The university’s attorney argued that Gow’s videos themselves were legal, but that they were not protected by his employment contract.

Zach Greenberg, an attorney with the free speech advocacy group Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression, called the regents’ decision “a major blow to academic freedom and the right to free expression.”

“FIRE has said time and time again: Public universities cannot sacrifice the First Amendment to protect their reputations,” Greenberg said. “We are disappointed that the UW has caved to donors and politicians by alienating a tenured professor.”

Republican lawmakers already view Wisconsin’s university system as a liberal incubator. Last year they forced the company to scale back its diversity initiatives. System President Jay Rothman has tried to avoid further angering conservatives as he seeks approval for an $855 million increase in the next state budget.

Gow’s hope of teaching in the classroom again was rejected by his department head, Linda Dickmeyer. She said that because Gow had not taught in 20 years, he would be assigned general education courses, but she declined to allow him to return to teaching in any capacity.

Gow was criticized in 2018 for inviting porn actress Nina Hartley to speak on campus. She received $5,000 from tuition fees for her performance. The university said he came up with the idea of ​​bringing her to campus after filming a pornographic video with her.

Gow and his wife’s e-books were written under the pseudonyms “Monogamy with Benefits: How Porn Enhances Our Relationships” and “Married with Benefits – Our Real Adventures in the Adult Industry.” But they also star in a YouTube channel called “Sexy Healthy Cooking,” in which the couple cooks meals with porn actors.

PITTSBURGH (KDKA) – There’s a social media fad called “chroming” that a doctor in Pittsburgh wants parents to know about.

The new “snort” called “chroming” is a dangerous, re-emerging practice that is on the rise among the youth. “Chroming” uses items you probably have at home and is harmful to children.

“This describes children sniffing every available hydrocarbon they can get their hands on,” said Dr. Anthony Pizon, chief of medical toxicology at UPMC and professor of emergency medicine at the University of Pittsburgh.

We’re talking everything from permanent markers, paint thinners and metallic paints to aerosol deodorants, compressed air dusters and hairspray.

“Children get intoxicated. And the symptoms are typically similar to what you would see with, say, alcohol poisoning. The children are drunk, have an unsteady gait and are sedated,” Pizon said.

He said this practice of inhaling fumes from common household items has been around for decades, but new research suggests trending social media videos may be the reason for its comeback.

“Unfortunately, a lot of kids are exposed to it, especially because of its appeal on TikTok,” Pizon said.

He said short- and long-term “chroming” could pose serious risks.

“Sometimes people take this to the extreme and put the compound in a bag and put the bag over their head and they can obviously suffocate. Some of the compounds they inhale can cause cardiac arrest, which would be very serious. And “Then there are many other side effects that you can see from it: kidney damage, electrolyte imbalances, seizures, lung injuries, muscle weakness,” Pizon said.

“It’s not a particularly common thing that causes or leads to hospitalization. But we definitely see children and adults using these substances regularly,” he added.

Pizon said the term “chrome plating” comes from people getting metallic paint on their hands and face after, for example, inhaling metallic paints on a rag.

He said “chroming” and inhaling “whippits,” also known as nitrous oxide, go hand in hand because the products are legal and easy to obtain.

While videos of these two dangerous trends are circulating on social media platforms like TikTok, searching for “chroming,” “whippits,” or “whiptok” on TikTok will direct you to substance use resources and helplines.

Pizon said his advice to parents is to be curious.

“You just have to be as interested in what your kids are doing and aware of what they might have access to in their room. Be aware that these leached compounds may be under their bed. And if parents have these products at home, there is a long list of products to dispose of when they are no longer needed,” he said.

Experts say to watch for frequent nosebleeds or sores in or around the mouth or nose, as well as worsening academic performance or decreased interest in activities.

If you are a parent and have questions or notice signs of a “chroming” overdose, including confusion, numbness, fainting and seizures, call the Pittsburgh Poison Center at 1-800-222-1222. Specialists are available to you around the clock.

Donna Kelce‘s son Travis Kelce He may be one of the NFL’s top tight ends and a rising star in the acting business, but that doesn’t mean he’s perfect at everything.

“It just seems like his life is on an upward trajectory every day. Every time I turn around I see him doing something different, whether it’s on the golf course, at a concert or whatever. He’s living his best life right now,” Donna, 71, said Extra in a new interview on Thursday, September 26, adding that “he loves attention” and has “such joy for life.”

When asked, “What can’t he do,” Donna answered without hesitation.

“He can’t clean, he can’t cook,” she said, laughing. “No, he’s feeling a little better. I think he’s getting help.
