On the previous play, BC defensive back Ronald Kent Jr. was called for pass interference in the end zone after a command center review, drawing boos from the crowd at BC Place Stadium.

Hamilton rallied from a 16-point deficit and scored two touchdowns late in the contest to win its fourth straight game.

With just over five minutes left and Hamilton facing a third-and-three, quarterback Bo Levi Mitchell found Kiondre Smith in the end zone with a six-yard pass, cutting the Lions’ lead to 23-18.

The Lions responded with a drive powered by a 23-yard catch by Ayden Eberhardt and a 14-yard rush by Stanback while wearing a Tiger-Cat on his back. Rourke scored on a two-yard plunge.

The Lions scored points on their first two drives.

Terry Williams returned the first kickoff 54 yards to Hamilton’s 49 yards. Rourke finished that drive with a seven-yard run. On BC’s next possession, Whyte kicked a 26-yard field goal.

Early in the second quarter, Rourke showed how elusive he can be, avoiding a sack by fending off several Hamilton tacklers before throwing an incomplete pass.

The Hamilton offense struggled early. The Tiger-Cats scored two draws on their first four drives and didn’t manage a first down until 3:34 of the second quarter.

The Lions took a 13-0 lead late in the second quarter after Kent Jr. intercepted a pass from Mitchell. That led to a 50-yard field goal by Whyte.

Full spoilers follow John Wick 4.

---

John Wick is back! Well, sort of. You see, the first trailer for ballerinathe next spin-off project in John Wick In-universe, Keanu Reeves’ legendary killer makes a surprise return to the big screen.

Confused? Don’t be. I’ll explain more later about how and why everyone’s favorite gun fu master will play a role in the upcoming action film directed by Ana de Armas. Hey, this movie isn’t about Wick himself, so why allow him to steal the spotlight in this article?

Anyway – yes, the first trailer for Ballerina: From the world of John Wick is here and looks just as exciting, action-packed and dramatically characterful as the first four films in the series. Below you can watch the first teaser for one of next year’s new films – it’s set to hit theaters on June 6, 2025:

I can’t speak for everyone, but from where I sit it looks very impressive. In fact, I was pretty disappointed that we didn’t see more of de Armas making names and kicking ass in 2021 No time to dieSo the last time that Daniel Craig took on the role of the legendary spy James Bond, or in The gray man on Netflix. I didn’t see the Cuban-Spanish actress bashing men left, right and center in the vilified Apple TV Plus videos Ghostly Movie too because I heard it wasn’t very good. That’s why I’m excited to see de Armas prove she has the courage to do the right thing as the main attraction in an action film.

But enough of my sycophancy – what the heck ballerina around? Here’s a quick synopsis of the plot, courtesy of a press release from Lionsgate: “Set during the events of John Wick: Chapter 3 – ParabellumThe film follows Eve Macarro (de Armas) as she begins her training in the assassination traditions of the Ruska Roma.

So there’s not much to say, but the trailer suggests that Macarro will embark on her own revenge-driven mission to track down those who murdered her family. That’s what she says in the film’s first teaser, so expect plenty of bone-crushing, shooting and impromptu action throughout.

How does John Wick live in Ballerina?

Okay, back to the question on everyone’s lips: What does Wick do? ballerina? After all, the last moments of John Wick: Chapter 4 implied that the titular assassin died after his tearful and tense duel with Donnie Yen’s Caine.

The short answer is: ballerina is an advance sequel. As seen in Lionsgate’s short story, the narrative runs parallel to that in John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum. As obvious as it may be, Wick is still alive at this point John Wick timeline, which is why he may make a cameo appearance in the de Armas frontman spin-off film.

Reeves’ Wick isn’t the only fan-favorite character we’ll be seeing again ballerina. The late Lance Reddick, who passed away in March 2023, will also make his final film appearance as Charon, the concierge of the New York branch of global assassin hideouts known collectively as The Continental. Ian McShane’s Winstone, who runs Continental New York, also returns for this spin-off flick. Joining de Armas and the aforementioned trio in “Ballerina” are Anjelica Huston, Gabriel Byrne, Catalina Sandino Moreno and Norman Reedus.

ballerina is the first John Wick We will see the spin-off of the film, but it is not the first spin-off in the franchise. That was actually the case The Continentala three-part miniseries that debuted on Peacock (US) and Prime Video (international) in late 2023.

Unfortunately, The Continental: From the world of John Wick wasn’t as great as I had hoped. You can read why this is so in my review of The Continentalor see how the prequel series tried to do something different by trading John Wick’s signature gun-fu for expressive “disco noir.”

MADISON, Wis. –

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.

The Seagulls are winless in their last three league games but have had an impressive start to the season and with a win on Saturday they would leapfrog the hosts and perhaps even move up to fourth place.

Enzo Maresca also made his breakthrough at Chelsea. The Blues have taken three wins and a draw in the Premier League after their opening defeat to Man City at the weekend, while they beat League Two Barrow 5-0 in the Carabao Cup in midweek.

The visit to Brighton is the Italian’s toughest test since hosting the 2023/24 champions and his belief in what he can achieve at the club will only grow if he passes with flying colors.

Israel has launched a series of massive attacks on Beirut, with the military saying it attacked the headquarters of the militant group Hezbollah.

The first wave of attacks shook windows across the world Lebanese capital and sent thick clouds of smoke into the air.

Israel says Hezbollah Leader Hassan Nasrallah was the intended target of the attack, but a senior Israeli official said it was too early to say whether the attack was successful.

Latest news from Israel and Hezbollah: Commander of militant group “killed in Lebanon”

A source close to Hezbollah told Reuters that Nasrallah was still alive, and Iran’s Tasnim news agency also reported that he was safe.

According to the Lebanese Ministry of Health, at least six people were killed and 91 injured in the airstrikes. It said the numbers were preliminary.

A second round of attacks by the Israeli Air Force followed early Saturday, targeting Hezbollah weapons production facilities and key command centers of the militant group in southern Beirut, according to the Israeli military.

After the attack, flames could be seen rising in certain areas. And Israel says it also attacked targets in the Bekaa Valley and hit the mountain town of Bhamdoun.

This came hours after the IDF first called for the immediate evacuation of some specific buildings in the southern suburbs. Army spokesman Avichay Adraee said in a post on X that people should “move at least 500 meters away from three buildings.”

During the attacks, the Israeli military claimed it killed Hezbollah’s missile unit commander, Muhammad Ali Ismail, and his deputy, Hossein Ahmed Ismail.

Friday’s attack was Israel’s strongest attack in Beirut during its nearly year-long conflict with Hezbollah, which began when the Iran-backed group began firing rockets into Israel almost immediately after Hamas attacked from Gaza on Oct. 7.

The Israeli military claimed it carried out a “precision strike” on Hezbollah’s headquarters, which it said was located “among residential buildings in the heart of Dahieh in Beirut.”

Dahieh – the Hezbollah-controlled southern suburb of Beirut – has been attacked four times in the last week, displacing an estimated 100,000 people.

Four of the buildings in the area were reduced to rubble on Friday, Hezbollah’s Al Manar TV reported.

The Iranian embassy in Beirut described the attacks as a “dangerous, groundbreaking escalation” and called them a “crime” that deserved “appropriate punishment.”

Earlier, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vowed to continue Israel’s attacks on Iran-backed fighters in Lebanon a speech to the United Nations General Assembly.

“As long as Hezbollah chooses the path of war, Israel has no choice, and Israel has every right to eliminate this threat and return our citizens safely to their homes,” he said.

“Israel has tolerated this intolerable situation for almost a year. Well, I came here today to say enough is enough,” Mr. Netanyahu added.

Israeli airstrikes have killed more than 700 people in Lebanon, raising fears of an all-out war between the two sides.

Satellite images captured by Maxar Technologies show the extent of damage caused by some of the attacks in Chouaghir, Baalbek-Hermel Governorate in eastern Lebanon.

The first image, taken on September 3, 2024, shows a building seemingly surrounded by trees. In the second picture from September 26th, the same building is completely destroyed.

Israel claims the aim of the bombing is to end more than 11 months of Hezbollah shelling of its territory.

(AP) – A weather television reporter in Atlanta interrupted his live coverage of Hurricane Helene Friday to rescue a woman from a vehicle stranded by rising floodwaters.

FOX Weather meteorologist Bob Van Dillen stood in the rain with the submerged vehicle and described how the woman drove into a flooded area.

In the recordings, he said he called 911 and she could be heard screaming as he tried to reassure her that help was on the way.

He then told the camera: “It’s a situation. We will contact you shortly. I’ll see if I can help this lady out a little bit, guys.”

The footage shows Van Dillen wading through the water with the woman on his back.

He later said in an interview that he gave up everything to help.

“I pulled my wallet out of my pants, went in, waded in and got up to my chest,” Van Dillen said. “She was in there, she was still strapped in her car and the water actually rose and got into the car itself, so she was submerged almost up to her neck in her own car.”

Subramaniam Vincent, director of journalism and media ethics at the Markkula Center for Applied Ethics at Santa Clara University, said this is an example of how the role of a reporter intersects with human responsibility.

It’s clear that while he had a professional obligation to report the news, “there’s also someone whose potential life is in danger,” Vincent said. “So I think the call he made is a human call.”

Considering the rising water and the woman’s cries for help and not knowing when help would arrive, “it’s a simple case of stepping in – one fellow citizen actually helping another,” Vincent said.
