Tim Allen's show has leaned…Open

A Wisconsin dog-breeding operation that state investigators cited for nearly 500 violations has surrendered its license and released its last beagles to rescue groups, while federal regulators logged just six violations at the same facility over the past decade. The final 155 beagles from Ridglan Farms arrived at Big Dog Ranch Rescue in Florida this month, completing a monthslong effort that moved more than 2,000 dogs out of the facility and into adoption pipelines. The relocation caps a saga that included a state criminal investigation, a judicial finding of probable cause for animal cruelty, mass protests, arrests, and a settlement that let the breeding operation avoid prosecution in exchange for giving up its state license to sell…Open

Davenport Northwest will head to Williamsport after a baserunner was caught on camera appearing to relay catcher signs during a one-run regional championship victory, and Little League officials say the result stands. Iowa's Davenport Northwest punched its ticket to the Little League World Series with a 7, 6 win over Whitefish Bay, Wisconsin, in the Midwest Regional Championship last Friday. But the celebration came with an asterisk after ESPN cameras captured what Wisconsin's players called real-time cheating on the basepaths. The moment arrived in the second inning. With a Davenport runner on second base, the player appeared to make repeated gestures toward his helmet, motions Wisconsin's catcher interpreted as stolen signs being…Open

Yellowstone creator Taylor Sheridan confirmed that the long-anticipated 6666 spin-off series is dead, scrapped, he says, because he refuses to turn the lives of real Texas ranch workers into made-up television drama. Sheridan, 56, made the announcement on an episode of the podcast Rodeo Time, five years after the spin-off was first announced in 2021. He owns the historic 6666 Ranch in Texas through an investment group that purchased the sprawling property in 2022 for a rumored $320 million. The ranch, founded by cattleman Samuel Burk Burnett in the 1870s, became a fixture in the Yellowstone universe when Jefferson White's character, Jimmy Hurdstrom, left Montana to work there as a greenhorn cowboy. Fans had expected that storyline to…Open

A historian's new book identifies a remote Iron Age hillfort in North Devon as the long-sought site of the Battle of Cynuit, where Anglo-Saxon forces routed a Viking invasion force and helped save the kingdom of Wessex. Castle Hill, a crumbling earthwork near the village of Beaford in North Devon, England, has stood quietly for centuries, ancient ramparts of earth and stone overlooking a rural landscape most people drive past without a second thought. Now researcher Nick Arnold and historian Paul Harper say the site is the strongest candidate ever put forward for one of the most consequential battles in English history: the 878 AD clash at Cynuit, where a Devon militia loyal to King Alfred the Great destroyed a Viking army and killed its…Open

A hidden network of sorority members, armed with scoring software, social media dossiers, and veto power, quietly controls who makes the cut during college rush, and they say the role is the most coveted job in the house. While hundreds of young women line up in sundresses and statement jewelry outside sorority mansions each fall, another group works out of sight in back rooms and basements, running the real selection process. They compile confidential portfolios months before rush begins. They score every potential new member in real time. They track every conversation on the party floor. And when the night ends, they build the callback list that determines who stays and who goes home. They call themselves "Basement Girls," and the New…Open
