BREAKING: Bombshell new reporting from CNBC reveals that Trump bought millions in Axon stock just two weeks before ICE sought a $220,000,000 deal to buy tasers from Axon.
This raises serious questions about insider trading as Trump continues to profit off of the presidency.
The firm behind Wembley and Tottenham's stadium designed a football ground in Mexico, then pointed it at a mountain. They dropped the roof on one end so the open side frames the Cerro de la Silla, the saddle-shaped mountain that rises over Monterrey, sitting right behind the pitch.
That view in the clip came first. The architects, a firm called Populous, built the stadium around it, and they have said the mountain was one of the biggest reasons it looks the way it does. The roof stands tall on the north side and slopes down toward the south, opening up so the mountain fills the gap above the stands.
The roof is one solid piece that reaches 55 meters out over the crowd, longer than an Olympic pool, with nothing holding it up from underneath. It shades fans from a summer sun that climbs past 40°C, or 104°F. The sides stay open so the air keeps moving. Instead of closing the place up and running air conditioning, Populous cut "gills" into the metal shell, angled to catch the breeze and push warm air up and out. The building cools itself.
The metal shell is a nod to the city's past. Monterrey built its fortune on steel and had the first iron and steel foundry in Latin America, so the stadium is wrapped in steel and aluminum, which got it the nickname "El Gigante de Acero," the steel giant. The lopsided, sweeping shape comes from an odd place: the outline of old brewing stills, a tip of the hat to the beer-making the city has done since 1890.
Inside, they pulled the crowd right on top of the grass. The first row sits 9 meters from the field. At the club's old ground, it was 27. The stands tilt back at 34 degrees, one of the steepest angles in the Mexican league, packing all 53,500 seats close to the pitch, which is part of why it gets so loud.
FEMSA, the drinks giant that owns the club, paid for all of it. The bill came to around $200 million, making it the most expensive stadium ever built in Mexico when it opened in 2015. In 2024 it became the first stadium in Latin America to earn LEED Gold, a major green-building rating, for how it handles energy and water.
So the view in that clip was drawn into the plans years before they laid the first beam. The whole building is a frame, and the mountain is the picture.
Spike Lee’s Inside Man should be mentioned as one of Spike’s best films ever. Denzel is incredibly magnetic in this film- I think it’s one of his best post-Training Day performances. The entire cast is also excellent, from Clive Owen to Chiwetel Ejiofor to Willem Dafoe & Jodie Foster. That’s all without mentioning the late Christopher Plummer, who himself is exceptional in this film. I truly love this movie.
Today on Anthony Bourdain’s birthday, let’s honor Tony by sharing a meal…with a friend or with a stranger…and making sure they’re okay. @wckitchen we are honoring him in a way by being next to the people of Venezuela after the earthquakes. Sharing food and hope. #BourdainDay
The green sea turtle is no longer endangered. 🎉
In October 2025, the IUCN moved the green sea turtle from Endangered to Least Concern on the global Red List, skipping Vulnerable and Near Threatened entirely. It's one of the most dramatic uplistings the organization has ever recorded.
The global population has grown by roughly 28 percent since the 1970s. Nesting beaches in Mexico, Hawaii, Brazil, and Florida are seeing numbers that haven't been recorded in living memory.
Florida alone counted 77,000 green turtle nests in 2023. The recovery came from protections that were put in place decades ago and held: international bans on commercial hunting, Endangered Species Act protections in the US, beach monitoring programs, and fishing regulations requiring turtle excluder devices in nets.
The work was slow and often invisible. Sea turtles take decades to reach sexual maturity, so the eggs protected on a beach in 1985 are the breeding adults we're counting in 2026. The results were always going to arrive a generation later than the effort.
But keep this in mind: the global designation is good news, but the species is not saved everywhere, and the threats that drove the original decline, illegal egg harvesting, bycatch, beach development, and warming waters affecting nesting success, haven't disappeared.
But after 40 years on the list, the green sea turtle is coming back.
