Although I've never enjoyed working out, I started going to the gym regularly in my late 60s. With the help of my personal trainer, I've built muscle and feel better than ever. To my surprise, I even discovered that many of the members at my local gym are my age or older. Over the years, I occasionally visited the gym with my wife who loves working out, but I never really embraced fitness until recently.

Slam dunk seasons from the New York Knicks and Rangers should bode well for parent company Madison Square Garden Entertainment , according to Bank of America. While a playoff run may bode well for shares, Madison Square Garden Entertainment could potentially reap an even bigger reward if the teams make it to the championship. This is because a partial playoff run may be accounted for in the forecast but not a longer bid for a championship, Henderson said. MSGE YTD mountain Madison Square Garden Entertainment shares year to date. "We believe MSGE presents an attractive opportunity to own a growth-oriented, pure-play live entertainment company."

CNN —Judge Juan Merchan handed down his first punishment to Donald Trump for violating the judge’s gag order in the New York hush money trial Tuesday, fining Trump $9,000 for nine violations. Instead, Davidson negotiated a $130,000 hush money deal with Cohen on Daniels’ behalf, and she did not speak out publicly before the 2016 election. In his order, the judge warned Trump that he could be imprisoned if he continues to willfully violate the gag order. “All you have to do is talk to that a**hole Cohen,” Davidson recalled. His son, Eric Trump, attended the trial – the first family member of the former president to appear during the trial.

Cheers thundered across a packed arena in Ottawa as fans stood and shouted support for the home team and vitriol at the visitors. Young girls in peewee jerseys, bearded bros in Ottawa red and women holding signs with slogans like “Girls Supporting Girls” all lent voice to the mounting excitement. For this was February in Canada, where hockey has been depicted on 5-dollar bills and all levels of the sport are revered with an almost maniacal fervor. When Ottawa scored to break a tie with only a few minutes to play, 8,000 fans erupted, signaling their emotional investment in the brand-new Professional Women’s Hockey League.

The Supreme Court is hurting.

The retired justice Stephen Breyer, on the talk circuit for his new book on constitutional interpretation, has been making the same point. I’m reminded of the last time the court made a concerted effort to assure the public that all was well. It was during the weeks that followed the ruling that clinched the 2000 presidential election for George W. Bush.

Biden’s fundraising efforts in February included a three-day swing in California that was expected to raise as much as $10 million.
