It marked the Commodores’ first-ever win over an AP top-five team and just the fourth time Alabama has lost as a No. — Joe RexrodeAlabama isn’t in as much CFP trouble as it may seemThe CFP margin for error has shrunk, of course, for an Alabama team that still has challenging road games against Tennessee, LSU and Oklahoma ahead. Despite a near-even margin in total yards (Vanderbilt 186, Alabama 159), the Commodores controlled the game by converting third downs — 7-of-10 in the first half. Williams’ magic isn’t enoughWhen Alabama needed a big play it called on its 17-year-old phenom Ryan Williams — and he delivered. Then, faced with a fourth-and-goal and trailing 40-28, Williams’ 2-yard touchdown run put Alabama back within one possession.

Millions of student-loan borrowers have faced legal whiplash over the past 24 hours. A Missouri judge blocked Biden from carrying out his broader debt relief plan just hours after receiving the case. The ruling came before the Education Department had even published the final rule for the debt relief. That's because the lawsuit argued the relief would hurt the revenue of student-loan company MOHELA, which is based in Missouri.

Days later, the Michigan state party chairman also plugged 10xVotes when he rolled into Traverse City, Michigan, alongside Trump running mate JD Vance.

The FBI and Microsoft have seized more than 100 web domains they say Russian intelligence used for cyber-espionage, according to court documents unsealed Thursday. The domains were allegedly staging grounds for Russia’s FSB intelligence agency in its ongoing efforts to spy on targets of interest, ranging from the U.S. Department of Energy to Russian nonprofits and media outlets critical of the Kremlin. The Justice Department seized 41 of the web domains, according to the FBI affidavit, and also granted Microsoft control of 66 additional domains the company said were part of the same operation. Intelligence agencies with even moderate cyber capabilities routinely hack foreign targets to gather intelligence. Many of the web domains allegedly used by the FSB were hosted by Virginia-based company Verisign, the court documents said.

President Joe Biden's student loan forgiveness program can proceed after a judge Wednesday let a temporary restraining order on the plan expire. He wrote that he would transfer the case to the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri. The states that brought the lawsuit have argued that the administration’s rule that would mass-cancel student debt would be detrimental to income tax revenue. Biden laid out the revised plan in April after the Supreme Court nullified the administration’s original student debt forgiveness program in 2023. If the administration’s proposed rules are finalized this fall, it would bring the total number of recipients of student debt relief under Biden's tenure to 30 million, the Department of Education said in August.

And I've applied my findings both to help adults and to help parents assist their kids. It starts by nurturing their mental strength in these six ways. Help your child build this habit when they're analyzing any problem, and you help them become mentally stronger. Help them focus on process versus outcomeWhen kids focus too much on the outcome of their efforts, it can lead to perfectionism. But becoming overzealous about results can eat away at kids' mental strength because so many factors besides effort can influence the outcome.

XRP was last lower by more than 9% at 52 cents a coin, according to Coin Metrics. Ripple, the largest holder of XRP coins, scored a partial victory last summer after a three-year battle with the SEC. U.S. District Judge Analisa Torres handed down the decision, which was hailed as a landmark win for the crypto industry. Still, while XRP isn't considered a security when sold to retail investors on exchanges, it is considered an unregistered security offering if sold to institutional investors.

Trump, Smith's team said, declared to his advisors that he "would simply declare victory before all the ballots were counted and a winner was projected" and publicly began laying the groundwork by telling his supporters he'd only lose if there was fraud. Trump campaign spokesman Steven Cheung called the Smith team's filing “falsehood-ridden" and tied its release to the vice presidential debate, even though it was known to be coming soon. "President Trump is dominating, and the Radical Democrats throughout the Deep State are freaking out.
