Title: A Heartfelt Scene of Father's Tears, Daughter's Innocence, and Mother's AmusementLamont Rogers, a 5-star offensive tackle, has decommitted from Missouri following a strong recruiting push from Texas A&M, according to Hunter Shelton of On3Sports. Rogers originally committed to the Missouri Tigers on July 6 but has now announced his return to the recruiting process in a social media post: Out of Mesquite, Texas, Rogers is considered the No. 26 overall prospect and the No. 5 offensive tackle in the 2025 class, according to 247Sports . The 6'7" senior has taken multiple visits to College Station to see what Mike Elko's program is all about, including an unofficial visit with the Aggies on Aug. 31. Shortly after, recruiting analysis for 247Sports predicted that Rogers would sign with the team on Nov. 7. Prior to his official announcement, Rogers had hinted at being interested in Texas A&M. "I am still trying to figure out what I want to do," Rogers said on Nov. 19, per Shelton. "With Texas A&M, what I like about them is what they have done in year one. I am impressed by that and what coach Elko and coach Cushing are doing." The Aggies wrapped up the season with an 8-4 record, finishing fourth in the SEC and ranked No. 20 in the AP poll, earning bowl eligibility.
After delay, Trump signs agreement with Biden White House to begin formal transition handoffDespite the challenges facing the money market funds, many experts believe that the current downturn is a temporary phenomenon and that yields are likely to recover in the near future. They point to the strong fundamentals of the financial markets and the overall resilience of the economy as reasons to remain optimistic about the long-term prospects of these funds. However, they caution investors to remain vigilant and to consider diversifying their portfolios to reduce risk and improve returns.I WANT Marcus Rashford to succeed, to be the player we know he can be. But we are now on a slippery slope of performances dropping at Manchester United — and nothing is changing from new manager to new manager. So, I have to ask him: Do you even want to do this? Do you want to play football ? It’s not an easy game, or an easy life. People think it is because of the amount of money and all that but there is a lot of nonsense that goes on in the background, a lot of stresses. And I don’t see a scenario in the next few months, or years, where he flips it on his head and all of a sudden comes good. Or he turns around and says: ‘I’m gonna prove you all wrong’. READ MORE IN FOOTBALL That makes me genuinely sad, especially because I know this will be weighing on him mentally long-term. Can you still get something out of him? I’m not sure. He needs a strict hand on him, but even that doesn’t seem to work sometimes. He’s 27 — his peak years. He’s got all the attributes you’d want for a modern-day winger or a striker, but he’s currently got the appetite of a 35-year-old. Compare it to the attitude and desire of Jamie Vardy at 37. It is chalk and cheese. Most read in Football BEST FREE BET SIGN UP OFFERS FOR UK BOOKMAKER S Rashford looks like he is carrying the weight of the world on his shoulders. Everything is always everybody else’s fault and his application stinks. He is still capable of moments. It wouldn’t surprise me if he goes and scores the winner against Manchester City this weekend and then goes missing for the next few weeks. He knows he can live off these ‘moments’ and nothing more, and that isn’t good enough. But United have bought this problem on themselves. They have created this person by continuing to reward rubbish behaviour and performances with massive, unwarranted contracts. He has been brought through as the academy favourite, the golden boy, yet when adversity hits, he thinks everyone is against him, instead of facing up and focusing on himself. So, I have to ask him: Do you even want to do this? Do you want to play football? And it is the same old cycle. A new manager comes in and for three of four games you see a ‘new Rashford’ and then he slips back into his old ways and old form. He then begins to get dropped. We saw it on Thursday night, subbed off against Viktoria Plzen and already United boss Ruben Amorim looks fed up with him. Look, I’ve been there. It’s not nice when that is happening. As a striker you want to be left on to build some momentum, but I was at the Emirates when he came on against Arsenal last week. He was a disgrace. Amorim summed it up best when he joined, telling Rashford he will get full support but it is up to him as a player, a person. That’s where the problem lies. Nobody wants Rashford to fail, but if he keeps delivering these substandard performances then we will all keep on saying the same things. Some people say it is the environment at United that is a negative impact, but that’s a poor excuse. You don’t see Harry Maguire or Bruno Fernandes acting out or not giving everything, do you? Another academy graduate like Kobbie Mainoo isn’t acting up because he has good role models around him in his position. He is hungry to improve. So, at what point do you take responsibility for your own actions and say: It’s on me. You can only fake it for so long if you are not a hard worker, you’re not sticking to a professional regime and you’re heart isn’t in it any more. At the moment Rashford is nothing more than an academy symbol of the past, a local lad that United are too scared to move on because of what the reaction from the fan base might be. Man Utd have created this person by continuing to reward rubbish behaviour and performances with massive, unwarranted contracts. But why would anyone in England want to take Rashford on? Why would boss Mikel Arteta risk ruining all his hard work at Arsenal of building a culture of elite professionals and high standards for him? Chelsea have a young, energetic squad that could revitalise him, but I reckon most of those players would look at him now and think: Well you’re a waste of time. And no one is going to pay his current wages — he is rewarded like he is one of the best three players in the Prem yet he wouldn’t get into any of the top SIX starting XIs right now. If I was advising him, I’d tell him to go abroad but even then I’m not sure how that would go. I do feel sorry for Marcus, but he has had enough bad examples of players around him, or in his age bracket, who have gone down a similar path. READ MORE SUN STORIES It should be enough to motivate you not to become one of them, someone like Jesse Lingard . But Rashford is not seeing the warning signs all around him. THE blame game has another victim as things go from bad to worse at Old Trafford. Manchester United’s first sporting director, Dan Ashworth, arrived in the summer and is gone before Christmas. SunSport exclusively revealed last month that there was trouble at mill. That the new senior management team were already blaming each other for the mess the club were in. Chief executive Omar Berrada and Ashworth were trying to wash their hands of it all, claiming they had arrived too late after serving their gardening leave. New part owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe said making decisions was all down to them. Meanwhile, Jason Wilcox thought it was all a mess under previous boss Erik ten Hag but was part of the team that encouraged him to stay after every other candidate ran for cover. There is word Ashworth did not favour appointing his successor and new head coach Ruben Amorim, preferring an English manager with more experience in our game. Perhaps that was why ex-England gaffer Gareth Southgate’s name was always mentioned after they worked together at the FA. Either way, Saturday’s showing against Nottingham Forest, after their second-half capitulation at Arsenal a few days previously, proved too much.

As snow blankets the Colorado mountains, outdoor enthusiasts have a unique opportunity: the winter hut trip. Whether you’re a skier or a snowshoer, a hut trip offers an excellent opportunity to connect with nature while exploring the rugged beauty of the state’s wilderness and enjoying the warmth and camaraderie of a cozy mountain hut. From the towering peaks of the San Juan Mountains to the snow-covered trails in Summit County, Colorado’s winter hut trips provide an unforgettable experience for adventurers of all levels. Huts fill up fast, so check each property’s for pricing and availability. Located between Telluride and Silverton near the top of Ophir Pass in the San Juan Mountains, the Opus Hut was built for backcountry skiers, mountaineers, hikers and mountain bikers. At 11,700 feet, the hut sits at treeline with low-angle glades below and open slopes above. While intermediate powder skiing is available out the back door of the hut, owner Travis Mohrman said the terrain is best suited for experienced backcountry skiers. Mohrman estimates that 15% to 20% of the groups visiting Opus Hut do so with guides. “They’re not personally comfortable with the terrain or they’re not from the area,” Mohrman said. “They guides are knowledgeable about local conditions — what the snow is, what’s safe and what’s not safe.” The cabin accommodates up to 20 people in five rooms. Some visitors book the whole hut and bring friends and family, while others reserve available beds in unbooked rooms. The hut features solar-powered lighting and 110-volt outlets for charging electronic devices. It also has filtered drinking water, hot and cold tap water, and indoor composting toilets. It provides full bedding and clean sleeping bag liners. During winter, the hut has four to six employees who sleep in a separate cabin. They prepare meals with natural, organic, and, when possible, locally grown products. The hut accommodates vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free diets–just be sure to inform the staff beforehand. It also offers beer, wine, and a limited selection of spirits for purchase. “You can travel much lighter if you don’t have to bring in your food,” said Mohrman, who took over the hut three years ago. “You don’t have to focus on the upkeep of being in the backcountry.” Reservations for Opus Hut open Aug. 1. “The winter fills up quick,” Mohrman said. “Every winter weekend books in the first five minutes.” Nestled at 11,200 feet in the San Juan National Forest, Campfire Ranch Red Mountain Pass is the perfect base for exploring world-class skiing, split boarding, snowshoeing, and ice climbing. Located between Silverton and Ouray, it’s is accessible during the winter via a half-mile backcountry over-snow approach. Campfire Ranch is an ideal choice for novices. While other Colorado hut systems require you to carry your own food, bring sleeping bags, and live off-grid, this one provides food service, solar-powered electricity, Wi-Fi, and bedding. The dog-friendly cabin accommodates eight people. “We took a hospitality approach to remove barriers to entry for people who want to have the experience but don’t have the gear or the knowledge,” said Katrin Meiusi, director of marketing for the properties. Campfire Ranch first opened a campground on the Taylor River in Almont near Crested Butte. RVs are not permitted at the campground, which is open from May to October. Amenities include unlimited firewood, clean bathrooms, and drinkable well water. The 38 backcountry huts managed by the non-profit 10th Mountain Division Hut Association are connected by 350 miles of trails among some of the tallest peaks in the lower 48 states. All huts, some of which accommodate up to 17 people, have kitchens with propane burners for cooking — propane is provided. They provide pots, pans, potholders, dishware, cooking and eating utensils, a percolator or French press for coffee, salt and pepper, paper towels, dish soap, hand sanitizer, cleaning supplies and trash bags. Some huts have ovens and propane grills. All huts provide lighting from on-site solar power, propane or a generator. A few huts also have outlets for charging small devices such as phones. The huts have either an outhouse or an indoor bathroom with toilet paper supplied. All huts include mattresses and pillows, but you must bring your sleeping bag and pillowcase. Summit Hut Association operates five backcountry huts open for winter from November to May. Francie’s and Janet’s cabins are also open for summer use from July to September. All huts have solar-powered lights, fully stocked kitchens, and wood-burning stoves. Francie’s, Janet’s, and Sisters’ cabins have saunas and indoor toilets. The association hosts its annual Backcountry Ball fundraiser in October at The Maggie on Peak to kick off the season. The event includes dinner, drinks, a silent auction and entertainment. Proceeds help maintain the network of backcountry cabins.

The FSRU will form part of the liquefied natural gas (LNG) project at Vasiliko. Responding to reporter’s questions on the sidelines of the inauguration of the Ahera Photovoltaic Park by the Electricity Authority of Cyprus (EAC), the minister confirmed the vessel’s imminent departure. Minister Papanastasiou said that after leaving Shanghai, the “Prometheus” will head to another destination to undergo certification as a floating gasification unit. He added that discussions were underway to deploy the unit temporarily at another location until the infrastructure at Vasiliko in Cyprus is ready. EAC Chairman and Natural Gas Infrastructure Company (ETYFA) Vice President Geroge Petrou highlighted that final preparations were being made for the vessel’s departure, including obtaining the necessary certifications. “If everything proceeds smoothly and water levels rise, the vessel may set sail for Singapore as early as tomorrow morning.” Addressing concerns about potential challenges in Cyprus’ involvement with the Great Sea Interconnector (GSI) project, Papanastasiou clarified that the project was progressing as planned. He said Cyprus has political and financial support, including an annual contribution of €25 million for up to five years, capped at €125 million. He added that Cyprus has access to European funds that could be used to become a shareholder in the project, though this would depend on meeting specific conditions. He noted that a commissioned evaluation study conducted a cost-benefit analysis and suggested amendments to documents provided by the project’s implementing body, ADMIE. Papanastasiou dismissed reports of significant delays or issues with the project. On the question of Cyprus’ involvement without ownership, the minister remarked that this is one of the considerations under discussion. He stressed that any financial contribution from Cyprus should ensure proportional ownership, reflecting its capital investment. He expressed optimism that continued collaboration between Cyprus and Greece, fostered by their memorandum of understanding, would lead to solutions for all outstanding issues raised by the evaluation.

Excessive weight gain is a common struggle for many individuals, with the journey to reverse the effects often proving to be challenging and frustrating. Recent research has shown that obesity may leave a lasting imprint on the body, creating what can be described as a "memory" that contributes to weight rebound and difficulty in maintaining long-term weight loss. This phenomenon sheds light on the complex nature of obesity and highlights the importance of addressing not only physical but also psychological factors in achieving sustainable weight management.
