CORAL GABLES, Fla. (AP) — This time, the only punches that Miami and FIU threw at one another were theoretical. And the Panthers nearly got a stunning knockout.Matthew Cleveland scored 23 points, Bensley Joseph and Wooga Poplar each added 18 and No. 12 Miami rallied from a 12-point second-half deficit to beat neighboring FIU 86-80 on Monday night.Nigel Pack scored 17 points and Norchad Omier had 11 rebounds for the Hurricanes (3-0).“Very proud of our guys for hanging in there,” Miami coach Jim Larrañaga said. “And very impressed with FIU.”Anyone who was watching would likely have said the same, after a game with some wild ebbs and flows.

Orbán to David Cameron: Great to have you back, buddy

Published Wed, 19 Feb 2025 20:51:32 GMT

Hungary’s Prime Minister Viktor Orbán on Tuesday joined a chorus of European heavyweights welcoming ex-British Prime Minister David Cameron’s unexpected return to politics.“Difficult times require experienced leaders. Glad to see a friendly and familiar face in the arena of politics,” Orbán said on X.Cameron, who resigned as U.K. prime minister in 2016, made a stunning comeback to British politics on Monday by becoming the U.K.’s new foreign secretary as part of a broad reshuffle of Prime Minister Rishi Sunak’s Cabinet.The former Conservative prime minister had a troubled relationship with the EU during his time in power — not least because of his role in initiating the 2016 Brexit referendum, which created years of tension between London and Brussels.At times, Cameron’s distrust of EU affairs put him in the same corner as Orbán.In 2014, the pair were the only ones who voted against the election of Jean-Claude Juncker as president of the Eur...

Walmart, Costco and other companies rethink self-checkout

Published Wed, 19 Feb 2025 20:51:32 GMT

New York (CNN) — The backlash against self-checkout is growing, and stores are starting to dial back on the technology after it exploded over the past few years.Booths, a British supermarket chain, said it’s removing self-checkout stations in all but two of its 28 stores. In the United States, Walmart, Costco, Wegmans and other chains have also revised their self-checkout strategies.“Our customers have told us this over time — that the self-scan machines that we’ve got in our stores … can be slow, they can be unreliable (and) they’re obviously impersonal,” Booths managing director Nigel Murray told the BBC.Customers at Booths also frequently misidentified which fruits and vegetables they were buying when prompted by self-checkout machines. Alcohol purchases also were not smooth transactions through self-checkout because employees had to verify customers’ ages.“Some customers don’t know one different apple versus another, for example,” Murray said. “There’s all so...

Chili’s hires Boyz II Men to sing a new version of its iconic baby back ribs jingle

Published Wed, 19 Feb 2025 20:51:32 GMT

New York (CNN) — One of the most recognizable jingles in history is making a return.Chili’s is bringing back its “I want my baby back, baby back, baby back…ribs” jingle for a new advertising campaign promoting the dish that’s been a staple on the chain’s menu since the late 1980s.The chain has hired Boyz II Men to sing an updated version of the jingle, a nod to the misconception that many people might have thought the R&B group originally recorded it — around the same time their fourth studio album was released, “Evolution,” which sold two million copies in the US.The jingle, last used in the mid-2000s, became an earworm for anyone watching TV during the ’90s when it seemingly blanketed the airwaves nonstop. Chili’s is hoping that nostalgia will draw renewed interest in the restaurant chain that’s in the midst of a turnaround.Chili’s is in a crowded field of chain restaurants all fighting for customers who aren’t particularly loyal to any one brand.

Kyed: 13 final thoughts on Patriots’ eventful experience in Germany

Published Wed, 19 Feb 2025 20:51:32 GMT

Nothing was going to save the Patriots’ 2023 season, but if Mac Jones hadn’t thrown off his back foot, put a little bit more velocity on the ball, and lofted his pass five yards deeper on his final passing attempt of Week 10 before getting benched, then at least the team could have looked back on their trip to Frankfurt, Germany with fondness.Alas, Jones’ red-zone, fourth-quarter target to tight end Mike Gesicki was intercepted by safety Julian Blackmon, setting off what should be a very interesting two weeks in Foxboro with a bye before their Week 12 matchup with the Giants.Related ArticlesNew England Patriots | Bill Belichick breaks silence on Patriots’ decision to waive Jack Jones New England Patriots | Patriots-Colts film review: Why the Germany loss may not be rock bottom New England Patriots | Patriots release troubled CB Jack Jones, claim RB JaMychal Hasty New England Patriots | Patriots captains declare belief ...
