His 70-meter effort broke the Olympic record set minutes prior by Lithuania’s Mykolas Alekna, a heavy favorite going into the Games. “I yanked it, it just dropped right out of 20 meters,” Stona recalled the first moment he picked up a discus. In Fayetteville, he met Ryan Crouser – a three-time Olympic gold medalist and an Olympic record holder in shot put – who joined the Razorbacks’ athletics staff in 2019 as a volunteer. But Stona had other plans: his fourth attempt on the night sailed 70 meters, breaking the Olympic record set minutes earlier and causing one of the biggest upsets of the Games. The gold medal in Paris gave Stona “some next level of confidence” to pick up where he left off.

I was a single mother with a lot of debt, so I couldn't cosign student loans for my two sons. I helped them pay for their small college expenses along the way. AdvertisementWhile I very much wanted my sons to go to college, as a divorced single parent, I chose not to cosign or take on Parent Plus loans that would add to my personal debt. Too much debt had previously been a problem for me, and I had learned some financial lessons the hard way. I decided I could help my sons with expenses as we went along — like textbooks and housing.

Washington CNN —Former President Donald Trump’s late-campaign television ads are littered with deceptively edited and misleadingly described quotations. Multiple Trump ads omit critical words from quotes by and about Vice President Kamala Harris on the subject of tax policy. One Trump ad misleadingly depicts comments about fracking from Trump’s campaign and administration as if they were comments from independent news organizations. Tactic: Cutting out key wordsOne Trump ad deletes critical words from two separate quotes on Harris’ tax policies. Those ads feature on-screen text saying “Harris would raise taxes,” attributing those words to a CBS News article.
