Kicking Off ID@Xbox’s Winter Of Arcade With Ashen, Below And More!

Chris Charla, Senior Director of ID@Xbox, provides some details about the ID@Xbox Winter of Arcade.

More than a decade ago, the Xbox team introduced Xbox Live Summer of Arcade to showcase a series of incredibly independent games on Xbox 360 like Braid, Castle Crashers, LIMBO, Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons and more throughout the entire season. Summer of Arcade was an early precursor to the ID@Xbox program with a goal of introducing independent games and developers to Xbox players. ID@Xbox has been on an incredible ride ever since, as we’ve helped developers bring more than 1,000 independent titles to Xbox fans. Today, we’re excited to re-launch one of our favorite promos of the past with a new twist for ID@Xbox – Winter of Arcade!

To help celebrate the nine rad games we’re including in the program this year, fans will get a $5 gift card for each game they purchase through the Microsoft Store Online or Xbox, after the first one, up to a total of $40 if they buy all nine games! In addition to these great savings, we’re stoked to announce that ID@Xbox Winter of Arcade will also feature four super cool games that will or have launched day and date into Xbox Game Pass: Below, Ashen, Mutant Year Zero and Kingdom Two Crowns.

At Xbox, we strive to help our developers and players achieve more with services like Xbox Game Pass and programs like ID@Xbox Winter of Arcade. We’re excited to give fans the freedom to discover and play a rich and curated library of great games, while providing creators big and small another way to reach more players and expand their audiences.

Check out the featured titles below:

Deep Waters: From ACD’s The Speckled Band to Eurus & TFP

This started as a comment to this post about Deep Waters by @smoljohnlock but it was so long, that I just made it into a post of its own.

“One moment,” said Holmes, “are you sure about this whistle and metallic sound? Could you swear to it?”

“That was what the county coroner asked me at the inquiry. It is my strong impression that I heard it, and yet, among the crash of the gale and the creaking of an old house, I may possibly have been deceived.”

“Was your sister dressed?”

“No, she was in her night-dress. In her right hand was found the charred stump of a match, and in her left a match-box.”

“Showing that she had struck a light and looked about her when the alarm took place. That is important. And what conclusions did the coroner come to?”

“He investigated the case with great care, for Dr. Roylott’s conduct had long been notorious in the county, but he was unable to find any satisfactory cause of death. My evidence showed that the door had been fastened upon the inner side, and the windows were blocked by old-fashioned shutters with broad iron bars, which were secured every night. The walls were carefully sounded, and were shown to be quite solid all round, and the flooring was also thoroughly examined, with the same result. The chimney is wide, but is barred up by four large staples. It is certain, therefore, that my sister was quite alone when she met her end. Besides, there were no marks of any violence upon her.”

“How about poison?”

“The doctors examined her for it, but without success.”

“What do you think that this unfortunate lady died of, then?”

“It is my belief that she died of pure fear and nervous shock, though what it was that frightened her I cannot imagine.”

“Were there gypsies in the plantation at the time?”

“Yes, there are nearly always some there.“

“Ah, and what did you gather from this allusion to a band–a speckled band?”

“Sometimes I have thought that it was merely the wild talk of delirium [TAB Watson speaking of lunatic fantasy], sometimes that it may have referred to some band of people, perhaps to these very gypsies in the plantation. I do not know whether the spotted handkerchiefs which so many of them wear over their heads might have suggested the strange adjective which she used.“

Holmes shook his head like a man who is far from being satisfied. "These are very deep waters,” said he; “pray go on with your narrative.”

“Two years have passed since then, and my life has been until lately lonelier than ever. A month ago, however, a dear friend, whom I have known for many years, has done me the honor to ask my hand in marriage. [The same length of time modern Sherlock was gone, rather than the three years of canon, and then the pining person is getting married in hopes of moving on.] His name is Armitage–Percy Armitage–the second son of Mr. Armitage, of Crane Water [The well for John], near Reading. My stepfather has offered no opposition to the match, and we are to be married in the course of the spring. Two days ago some repairs were started in the west wing of the building, and my bedroom wall has been pierced [221B wall promo photo with Sherlock in chair, and John behind him], so that I have had to move into the chamber in which my sister died, and to sleep in the very bed in which she slept. Imagine, then, my thrill of terror when last night, as I lay awake, thinking over her terrible fate, I suddenly heard in the silence of the night the low whistle which had been the herald of her own death. I sprang up and lit the lamp, but nothing was to be seen in the room [Sherlock in our TFP running around Musgrave with lamp, after pushing down the fake walls]. I was too shaken to go to bed again, however, so I dressed, and as soon as it was daylight I slipped down, got a dog-cart at the Crown Inn, which is opposite, and drove to Leatherhead, from whence I have come on this morning with the one object of seeing you and asking your advice.”

Which, is not how events unfolded on John’s blog, where it was poison being injected. Similar to how John didn’t start the blog to give Sherlock credit, which is how it worked in canon.

15 TO WATCH/5 SPORTS TECH/POWER OF SPORTS 5: RICK HORROW’S TOP SPORTS/BIZ/TECH/PHILANTHROPY ISSUES FOR THE WEEK OF AUGUST 26

with Jacob Aere

The XFL unveiled the names and logos for the eight teams that will make up the rebooted league's first season when it begins play next February. The eight teams will be the Dallas Renegades, Houston Roughnecks, L.A. Wildcats, New York Guardians, St. Louis BattleHawks, Seattle Dragons, Tampa Bay Vipers, and DC Defenders. The names and logos of the eight XFL teams "make clear" what league Founder Vince McMahon has "emphasized from the beginning: Version 2.0 will be a lot less gimmicky and a lot more conservative than the original model," according to the Washington Times. DC Defenders President Erik Moses said, "With Vince McMahon's vision and genius in marketing, and the resources he has graciously provided us, if we can't get spring football to work, then it doesn't work." On Saturday, Indianapolis Colts quarterback Andrew Luck shocked the pro football world when he abruptly announced his retirement from football at age 29. XFL Commissioner and Sport Business Handbook contributor Oliver Luck is the father of the NFL standout and Stanford grad. Don’t be surprised to see Andrew Luck joining the XFL in some business capacity.

SportsPro names U.S. Open defending champion Naomi Osaka the world’s most marketable athlete for 2019. The number one ranked WTA star, 21, Osaka is the second woman to top SportsPro’s annual list of the world’s 50 most marketable athletes after Eugenie Bouchard became the first in 2015. The first Asian to be ranked number one, Osaka has enjoyed a whirlwind year, winning both the 2018 U.S. Open and the 2019 Australian Open while building out a commercial portfolio that includes the likes of Nike, beauty company Shiseido, and automotive brand Nissan. Osaka is one of a record 16 female sports stars to be named in the tenth edition of SportsPro’s list, which comprises athletes from 16 sports and 18 countries. Manchester City and England soccer player Raheem Sterling is the highest new entry in the list at No. 2, and is joined in the top five by top NBA Draft pick Zion Williamson, USWNT co-captain Megan Rapinoe, and Paris Saint-Germain forward Kylian Mbappe. SportsPro’s list assesses athletes according to their marketing potential over the coming three-year period, taking into account criteria such as age, home market, crossover appeal, social media presence, charisma, and willingness to be marketed.

Ahead of the U.S. Open, Naomi Osaka has signed new marketing deals with BodyArmor, performance recovery brand Hyperice, and headphone company Muzik. Osaka “received equity stakes in all three emerging companies," according to Forbes. Muzik on Friday released a new headphone designed by Osaka that marks the "first celebrity signature line for the company." She will "receive royalties on the product, in addition to her equity stake." Meanwhile, Hyperice last week "launched marketing campaigns in Japan and the U.S. featuring Osaka as part of a multi-year deal." Osaka is "expected to be one of the faces" of the 2020 Tokyo Games due to her Japanese heritage, and Hyperice is "already mapping out marketing plans around the Games." Despite the new additions to her growing portfolio, no company is as "important to Osaka's brand and bank account as Nike." The apparel giant has unveiled a "collaboration with Japanese designer brand Sacai for an 11-piece collection,” and Osaka will have her "own Nike logo and athleisure line starting in 2020." Osaka also told Forbes that she is working on a project with LeBron James and his business partner Maverick Carter.

DraftKings and Tennis Channel partner in a deal that will incorporate the DFS site’s games into Tennis Channel’s U.S. Open programming. In Tennis Channel’s first foray into DFS, viewers will see DraftKings content beginning Monday with the start of the U.S. Open. Tennis Channel on-air talent will draft player lineups in accordance with DraftKings rules, give analysis, and review rosters from the previous day of play. Tennis Channel will also offer unique DraftKings contests via a special promo code. “It will be heavily integrated into the broadcast, which is certainly a different approach than any of the grand slams have taken up to this point,” DraftKings Chief Business Officer Ezra Kucharz told SportsBusiness Daily. The DraftKings-Tennis Channel deal is only for content during the U.S. Open, but Kucharz anticipates doing more work with the net and potentially other tennis broadcasters in the future. Kucharz also believes domestic tennis organizations are getting more comfortable with broadcasters integrating sports gambling content.

Sunday saw the FedEx Cup season come to a conclusion when the Tour Championship crowned Rory McIlroy, who earned $15 million for the win. Mike McCarley, NBC Sports Group President, Golf, talked to Cynopsis Sports about the playoffs and the year ahead. On measuring success: “The PGA Tour’s playoff system is now 12 years old and the true success of the new schedule and format should be measured over the next decade or more.” On the Playoffs: “Several years ago, we met with the Tour, East Lake Golf Club, and several sponsors: FedEx, Coke, and Southern Co. and discussed how to build this championship into what we all believed it could be. Out of that meeting, came our focus on expanding this week.” On golf’s schedule shift: “All of the changes to the golf schedule [were] designed to have the Playoffs culminate before football season. The fall becomes a showcase for the sport’s global nature with events worldwide with PGA Tour and LPGA’s swings in Asia, as well as marquee team events with the U.S. women looking to defend the Solheim Cup and the Tiger Woods captained U.S. team defending the Presidents Cup in Australia.”

This football season, Lowe’s will be “homegating.” Lowe’s has signed a new deal with the Dallas Cowboys and launched an online store with more than 10,000 NFL-licensed items of merchandise to activate its first season as an NFL sponsor. The online shop will support the broader concept of the season’s campaigns -- tailgating and so-called “homegating” -- as Lowe’s looks to become the supplier of all merchandise related to the game day fan experience. Products will include chairs, canopies, grills, rugs, wall art, flags, automobile decals, and more. The multiyear deal with the Cowboys comes along with a renewal of Lowe’s longstanding relationship with the Panthers. Both teams, along with the Eagles, helped Lowe’s produce a series of online videos, “NFL Homegating Makeovers by Lowe’s,” which follows three football-themed home makeovers in those markets. Lowe’s became the NFL’s official home improvement retail sponsor in January.

Super Bowl LIV to cost Miami-Dade municipalities nearly $20 million. Super Bowl LIV will cost three of Miami-Dade County's largest municipal governments nearly $20 million over time, as local governments have "spent or plan to commit" more than $15 million in "cash contributions to the host committee, security bills, municipal fee waivers and partial payments for parks improvements," according to the Miami Herald. The "costs of football fields and lighting improvements to Miami’s waterfront are being split between the NFL and government agencies." However, Miami-Dade County will pay another $4 million to the Dolphins for "attracting the game." Miami's Downtown Development Authority "plans to cover half of the $600,000 price tag for permanent LED lighting on the Baywalk" to accompany the "Super Bowl Live" attraction, while the NFL has "agreed to pay the other half." The bulk of Miami Beach's expenses associated with the game "are coming in the form of fee waivers" totaling $1.2 million. The city also is putting $350,000 toward a new $1 million football field for Rick’s alma mater Miami Beach Senior High School, an expense to be "split with the league and school district.”

Curry backs Howard golf. Warriors guard Stephen Curry traveled to Washington, DC last week to announce that he is "sponsoring the creation of men's and women's golf teams" at Howard University, bringing competitive golf to the school for the "first time in decades," according to the Washington Post. Curry will make a "seven-figure donation paid out over the next six years, aimed at giving Howard time to raise an endowed fund that would make the program self-sustainable." Howard previously competed in D-II golf, but this is "believed to be the first time Howard will have" a D-I golf program in the school’s 152-year history. Curry’s love of golf clearly rivals his love of basketball, as witnessed by his multiple entries in PGA Tour events and backing of the NBC summer TV series, “Holey Moley.” His donation to Howard, however, is all about paying that love of golf forward to the next generation of top level African American athletes.

MLS formally announces St. Louis as home to the league's 28th team. MLS Commissioner Don Garber, members of the St. Louis ownership group, and St. Louis Mayor Lyda Krewson last Tuesday shared in the announcement that the club is expected to begin play in 2022, according to SoccerAmerica. From a business standpoint, this is "really, really good for the city," as it is "essentially a major corporation moving to downtown." The St. Louis expansion franchise is the first in the league to have female majority ownership. The team will play in a new stadium in St. Louis’ Downtown West district that will feature 22,500 seats, each of which will be within 120 feet of the pitch and have a translucent canopy that will provide cover for fans. MLS currently has 24 teams, including rookie FC Cincinnati. David Beckham’s Inter Miami and a new Nashville club will kick off next year, with Austin FC set to open in 2021, before the St. Louis club make its debut.

All right, all right, all right. McConaughey invests in Austin FC. Austin FC announced last Friday that four local investors will join franchise CEO Anthony Precourt in the run-up to the new MLS team’s debut season in 2021, including actor Matthew McConaughey. According to the Austin American-Statesman, the group is led by Pixiu Investments Managing Partner Eduardo Margain, and also features Dell President and Chief Commercial Officer Marius Haas and Parsley Energy Founder, Chair and CEO Bryan Sheffield. McConaughey’s appearance at an LAFC match in May with LAFC Minority Owner Will Ferrell "sparked speculation" that he would join the Austin team. Austin FC has also set a "firm date" of September 5 for groundbreaking on their upcoming $242 million MLS stadium. McConaughey’s investment continues a string of celebrity MLS investors, including Ferrell and Seattle Sounders backers: rapper Macklemore, singer Ciara, and her husband Russell Wilson. The average MLS franchise is worth $240 million, according to Forbes.

Twitter and Adidas bring back high school football series. Friday Night Stripes, the livestreaming series of high school football games on Twitter, is coming back for a second season later this month. According to Hashtag Sports, the show, which was created by Adidas, Intersport, and Twitter, debuted in 2018 and focused on broadcasting eight football games from high schools across the U.S. And it turned out to be quite a success. According to Twitter, Friday Night Stripes generated more than 32.6 million total views and had over 15.6 million live viewers tuning into the series. "The high school sports community on Twitter is not only massive, but extremely passionate and engaged," said T.J. Adeshola, Head of U.S. Sports Partnerships at Twitter. "Friday Night Stripes gives us the fantastic opportunity to showcase the future of sport—the culture, the lifestyle, the swagger—in an innovative way, directly to the timelines of fans all over the globe." Friday Night Stripes Season 2 is a prime example of Twitter's vision for sports video content on its site, an area in which it’s been heavily investing.

Ripken Baseball and ESPN's Wide World of Sports Complex announce a partnership that will bring elite youth baseball tournaments to Walt Disney World Resort beginning in 2020. The Ripken Experience at Walt Disney World Resort, according to SportsBusiness Daily, will include a "dazzling" opening ceremony for participants, whose ages will range from 6-18. Games will be played on 11 ballfields, six youth-sized fields equipped with lights for night games and five professional-sized fields, including The Stadium at ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex, which hosted MLB Spring Training games for more than two decades. Players will have free time in the Disney parks to experience new attractions. Said Cal Ripken Jr., "Here at Disney, we might even have greater resources to bring the big-league experience to the kids...We quickly realized that most of the kids are not going to play big-league baseball, so we want to bring a big-league experience down to them." Ripken, founder and chairman of Ripken Baseball, as well as a Sport Business Handbook contributor, added that the partnership is a multiyear deal.

ISC has announced that COO Joie Chitwood III has resigned from his post, effective November 25, the first major departure amid ISC’s acquisition by NASCAR. Chitwood, noted SportsBusiness Daily, has been with ISC for a decade, having served as President of Daytona International Speedway during its $400 million renovation before stepping into the COO role, where he has overseen the operations of ISC’s 13 tracks. Chitwood is one of ISC executives identified in public filings as having substantial stock in the company, which should provide a windfall after NASCAR’s $2 billion acquisition of ISC closes, which is expected by year’s end. Sources have been anticipating departures from ISC’s leadership in the coming months; SportsBusiness Journal last month reported that ISC President John Saunders has also been mentioned as someone who could leave the company after the acquisition closes. After the acquisition is complete, NASCAR’s leadership is expected to have greater oversight of track operations under the newly combined company.

MLB FoodFest returns for a second helping. MLB FoodFest presented by Budweiser returned to New York September 21-22 on Fifth Avenue near Bryant Park. The event's second installment on the East Coast -- it also took place in Los Angeles earlier this year -- provides all 30 teams an opportunity to designate one food item to represent their team and community. Each ticket grants access to the space for a designated two-hour block and can only be secured online prior to arrival at the venue. Among the most popular food items are the Mariners' toasted grasshoppers, the Pirates' pulled pork pierogi hoagie, the Red Sox' hot lobster rolls, and for dessert, the D-backs’ Churro Dogs. Most of last week’s menu featured concoctions new to the New York event, including the local team and ballpark representatives with the Mets Bases Loaded Dog and the Yankees Shrimp Po’Boy. This time around, attendees also had access to new interactive elements, such as a Home Run Derby Virtual Reality experience and an MLB FoodFest merchandise shop.

This bowl naming deal is no flake. Kellogg's Frosted Flakes brand will be the "title sponsor of the newly-named Tony the Tiger Sun Bowl," with the multiyear partnership "marked by Tony the Tiger being the first mascot to lend his name to a college football bowl game," according to the El Paso Times. The sponsorship agreement between the Sun Bowl Association and Frosted Flakes was "brokered by Denver-based Impression Sports & Entertainment." Tony the Tiger is "returning the Sun Bowl to its inaugural mission -- helping kids play sports -- something that hasn't been a focus since the birth of the Sun Bowl." The Tony the Tiger Sun Bowl in 2019 will "align with Tony's 'Mission Tiger' initiative, raising awareness and funds for at-risk middle school sports programs through a multiyear partnership with nonprofit DonorsChoose.org" SI.com opined that the Tony the Tiger Sun Bowl is "easily the greatest bowl name and sponsorship deal since the Popeyes Bahamas Bowl" 2014-2016. My take? It’s Grrrreat!

Top Five Tech

Barstool Sports now earns one-third of its revenue through podcasts. According to Variety, the oft-criticized media outfit has been able to leverage its loyal audience to expand into the world of podcasting, which now represents a sizable and growing piece of its business. Three years ago, the company featured just three podcasts, but now it has more than 30 audio shows and ranks as the sixth largest U.S. podcast publisher with 6.75 million unique listeners in July 2019 — putting it ahead of rivals including ESPN. Podcasting is a very high-margin business and far more cost-effective than TV production, and Barstool has inked sponsorship brands for several of its podcasts, including with Roman, SeatGeek, Starbucks, FanDuel, and Square’s Cash App. The raunchy media company can’t find a spot in television due to their questionable commentary, but podcasting has allowed the company to go a step beyond its competitors in the audio space – and soon could have huge advertising impacts when Nielsen begins to rate audio programs.

ESPN launches the long-awaited ACC Network. ACCN went live last Thursday with a two-hour edition of "All-ACC," the channel's flagship studio show. This Thursday, No. 1 Clemson will host Georgia Tech as the network's first marquee live broadcast. Conference networks have become enormous moneymakers this decade, so the launch of ACCN will help the ACC close the financial gap with leagues like the SEC and Big Ten, who have surged ahead. The SEC Network has around 59 million subscribers and $230 million in annual revenue. The Big Ten Network has 55 million subscribers and $160 million in annual revenue. “Over a decade, those numbers would mean more than $2.3 billion (after ESPN takes its half) in revenue for the SEC, [and] more than $1.6 billion (after Fox takes its half) for the Big Ten," notes The Athletic. The Big 12 is now the only Power Five league without its own stand-alone conference network — though it's nearly all-in with ESPN.

ESPN introduces a Player Impact Rating segment for college football players with an augmented reality segment on the network. According to NewscastStudio, the segment and ranking system is part of a multi-year deal with Sony’s PlayStation as the official gaming and virtual reality sponsor for the metric. The new feature will rate real college football players on a zero to 100 scale, just like a Playstation video game and similar to the iconic Madden video game series. ESPN’s announcement about the rating states it accounts for the player’s time on and off the field plus the skills of both teammates and opponents. To introduce its new rating system, ESPN produced a virtual studio and augmented reality segment that places its on-air talent inside of a streamlined rendition of a football stadium. This move is a direct tie between esports and on-field sports and should bring a new system of evaluation to previously under the radar football players.

Estars has launched a new interactive, free-to-play gaming platform with more than $20 million in prizes for 2019. According to European Gaming, Estars is the leading production company for esports and video games and has ramped up their Major Events prize pool for the rest of 2019. On Estars, users are able to compete and connect with their favorite games, players, streamers, and teams through free prediction-based contests. To play, users enter contests and select their predicted outcomes to enter to win prizes. Estars is available on all mobile and desktop web browsers across 46 U.S. states and the age to play is just 16 years old with the chance to win prizes requiring users to be 18 years old. After users select their picks, they can watch the matches live on Estars to see how their selections are performing in real-time – a perfect testing ground for later large scale esports betting.

Los Angeles Overwatch League teams join city's sports rivalries. Los Angeles' "newest rivalry took a big step toward joining its more established brethren" last weekend when Overwatch League franchises L.A. Gladiators and L.A. Valiant faced off in the "Battle for L.A." at The Novo at L.A. Live. According to the Los Angeles Times, the Novo is a "2,400-seat performance venue that will serve as the home of the Valiant next season" as the OWL "moves into the home markets of its 20 teams." Beginning next year, teams will "move into their home markets and into their home arenas," and the "Battle for L.A." provided "the first glimpse of what that will look like" in L.A. The city is "further solidifying itself as the epicenter of esports." And when the new Los Angeles Stadium at Hollywood Park complex opens, don’t be surprised to see some sort of esports presence there as well.

Power of Sports Five

The World Surf League helps the coral reef crisis. In another act of environmentalism, WSL has joined Glowing Glowing Gone, a global campaign advocating for greater funding and action for coral reef conversation by highlighting the global danger signaled by fluorescing corals. According to gcmag, the collaboration features a complete takeover of the Tahiti Pro Teahupo’o presented by Hurley event branding to incorporate the exact colors of fluorescing corals. The glowing coral phenomenon, called fluorescing, is one of the most visual indicators of the climate crisis and the existential threat to entire ecosystems such as coral reefs as the color change means the coral are trying to protect themselves from heating waters. Until recently, the phenomenon has gone largely unnoticed. WSL gives back to its event locations and is even offsetting the carbon footprint of the entire Tahitian event, including air travel, while supporting Coral Gardeners, a youth-led non-profit organization that is actively restoring coral reefs in the area.

Women’s esports get a boost from NBA 2K League. According to Polygon, the NBA 2K League held a development camp specifically for women last week, specifically to increase the number of women players in an esports series. The camp began August 20 at the NBA 2K League Studio in Queens and brought 15 of the top women competing in NBA 2K to play against and learn from players and coaches in the current NBA 2K League season. The NBA 2K League currently has only one woman among its 21 teams: Chiquita “Chiquitae126” Evans of Warriors Gaming Squad, the esports affiliate of the Golden State Warriors. Although Evans’ selection in the NBA 2K League draft this year earned her a nomination for “Best Esports Moment” at this year’s ESPY awards, there is a need to diversify the NBA 2K League and organizers are headed in the right direction.

Golf in Boise raising millions for local charities. According to CBS Idaho News, the Albertsons Boise Open raised a record $1.5 million for charity on its first night alone and had five more days to grow that total. Through the Tyson Foods TICKETS Fore CHARITY program, 100% of tournament ticket sales are given directly to Boise area charities. Some players who've come through Boise on their way to the PGA Tour include Justin Thomas, Matt Kuchar, Rickie Fowler, Ernie Els, Jim Furyk, Bubba Watson, Xander Schauffele, and Gary Woodland. As a testament to the event’s golf prowess, this year alone, 29 of the 50 PGA Tour events were won by players who played at the Albertsons Boise Open in the past. The event has provided over $25 million in charity since the inaugural Albertsons Boise Open in 1990 and has a chance to expand its record for the most ever raised in a year.

16-year-old Angel More swims 28 miles around Manhattan for charity. Angel More has become the youngest woman to complete the 20 Bridges Swim, and she finished it in just nine hours. More swims for Children International, a non-profit that helps lift children out of poverty around the world. She has raised more than $55,000 so far, but hopes to raise $1 million for a scholarship fund to support 5,000 teens who want to further their education in high school, college, or technical school. More isn’t a stranger to record-breaking as she became one of the youngest girls to climb Mount Kilimanjaro when she was 10 years old, and last year the marathon swimmer successfully swam across the Catalina Channel. More’s next goal is the English Channel – the only challenge left before she completes open water swimming’s Triple Crown, and is doing it all in the name of bettering other’s education.

Minnesota Timberwolves’ Jordan Bell aims to erase MS. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the first annual Jordan Bell celebrity basketball game benefiting the Race to Erase MS was held at the Walter Pyramid on the campus of California State University Long Beach. The game featured such other NBA stars as Karl Anthony Towns, Lonzo Ball, and JaVale McGee. All proceeds from the game were donated to the Center Without Walls program, a coalition of leading multiple sclerosis researchers from the country’s top universities who are collaborating to find a cure and treatments for the disease. It’s a cause that is very personal for Bell, as his girlfriend was diagnosed with the disease last November. The event is sure to grow with time, and Bell’s personal tie to the cause should enable its message and impact to grow even larger.

In a new series of weekly columns (available soon as a newsletter), we’re looking back at the strongest, smartest opinion takes of the week from CNN and other outlets.

(CNN)It’s the midterms of 2018, so why was Elizabeth Warren — presidential hopeful, class of 2020 — swamping the news cycle?

The November 6 vote is rolling in fast — the first chance since 2016 to answer President Donald Trump at the ballot box. It’s a moment that will either solidify the GOP’s total grip on power in Washington or — to hear the Democrats tell it — halt the country’s slide into authoritarianism.

But as a possible reordering of the political universe gathered, readers were riveted to see Warren — rising to the Trumpian bait, seemingly out of the blue — with her DNA test and video, meant to erase a negative issue and answer for all time: Native American or not (or just a little)?

Not helpful just now, said many Democrats.

Meanwhile, Hillary Clinton was talking about her husband, Monica Lewinsky and #MeToo.

Please stop talking

(for now), said

Michelle Cottle,

in The New York Times.

“This close to Election Day, discussing hot-button issues in national interviews is nothing but problematic for her party — and, ultimately, her own legacy,” she wrote.

Warren walks into it

“On the first day of her unofficial presidential campaign, Sen. Elizabeth Warren

showed exactly why

President Trump is such a powerful political opponent,”

Julian Zelizer

warned. “He can twist his opponents into knots as they dive deeper and deeper into a political abyss,” drawing them “into conversations they never intended to have.” That would be the one about Warren’s attempt to get Trump to stop calling her “Pocahontas” (

no luck

) by producing

a DNA test.

Democrats fretting about the midterms were not thrilled. And

Kate Maltby

wrote that Warren was absolutely entitled to hit back at Trump,

but she is “mistaken

if she thinks Trump’s America is a place where an emotively scored promo video can change the tenor of a racial debate. If she thinks she’s the best Democratic candidate to take on Donald Trump in 2020, she’s even more mistaken.”

And there’s hypocrisy

, argued

Simon Moya Smith

, an Oglala Lakota and Chicano journalist: “Elizabeth Warren, where the hell have you been?”… during the Dakota Access Pipeline fight, the long history of “police brutality in Indian country,” and myriad issues affecting Native Americans. “I’d take Warren in a hot minute over a petulant President Trump … but the revered senator has a lot to apologize for — or at least explain. When we needed her, she didn’t lace up.”

Meanwhile, back in 2018 …

Cue the uproars across the land.

President Trump crisscrossed the country whipping up Republicans’ anxiety about immigration, with warnings about a migrant caravan moving north through Central America. He paused in Montana to praise Greg Gianforte, who pleaded guilty after assaulting a reporter last year (and was elected to Congress a day later). “Any guy who can do a body slam … he’s my guy,” said the American President. “Even at his most paranoid, Nixon never solicited violence against journalists,” wrote

Samuel Freedman. Trump’s words should chill

an America “where the MAGA hat defiles the First Amendment, and practitioners of a free press feel ever more the peril that ultimately swallowed up Jamal Khashoggi.”

(

What does context matter,

though, for Trump?”

Eric Lach

pointed out in the New Yorker. “In Montana, on a stage, he felt that endorsing the assault of a reporter ‘might help.’ So he did it.” )

The President had another strategy, too

: Abandon issues and simply brand Democrats as “dangerous,” “wacko” and “an angry left-wing mob,” wrote

Noah Berlatsky

. Don’t ignore this, he warned, “once you start delegitimizing one sort of protest,” you’re headed to an “authoritarian state, in which repression of dissent is justified to preserve order and keep dangerous, disloyal elements out of power.” Example? Putin’s Russia.

But Trump and Republicans

have a good reason for banging away at immigration i

n a politically polarized country, wrote

Thomas Edsall

in The New York Times. Data show that “men and women opposed to immigration are much more likely to vote Republican on the issue than supporters are to base a vote for a Democratic candidate on a pro-immigration position.”

Midterm mix

In Georgia, the Republican candidate for governor, Brian Kemp (who is also the secretary of state, in charge of elections) was accused of trying to suppress the black vote by stalling 53,000 voter registrations. (“

How’s this for an axiom that is especially self-evident,

” asked the NAACP Legal Defense Fund’s

Janai Nelson

: “An elected official should not oversee an election in which he is a candidate.”)

Kemp, locked in a close race against Democrat Stacey Abrams, denies the voters put on hold under the state’s “exact match” system have anything to do with his run. This is a system, noted

Eugene Scott

in the Washington Post, that

“would put someone named Beyoncé Knowles-Carter

on the ‘pending’ registration list if her voting application said Beyoncé Knowles Carter.” In other words, “the latest offensive in the renewed campaign against minority voting rights,” said

Nelson.

Sen. Ted Cruz declined, but CNN held a town hall anyway on Thursday with his challenger, Rep. Beto O’Rourke, “the Irish descendant from the Hispanic borderlands of Texas” political writer

James Moore

called him, “who has given the state’s Democrats a

gift they have found too surprising to completely unwrap.”

The gift? Hope. So far O’Rourke is losing, said a CNN poll, but Moore thinks he is now on the national stage to stay. And if Hispanics, middle-class women and millennials come out, he may have a chance.

Khashoggi: Saudis try to explain the horror

By week’s end, Saudi officials, bending to intense pressure, confirmed the death of Washington Post columnist Jamal Khashoggi in Istanbul, fired a top military official and detained 18 Saudis, but blamed it on a fistfight that got out of control.

Nic Robertson

wrote that the “rogue-operation”-gone-wrong narrative, rather than a culpable crown prince in a friendly oil kingdom,

“beggars belief.

But Trump chose not merely to buy it, but endorse and propagate it, too.” “Trump is already giving us a curtain raiser on his intent, tilting toward a pass for his autocratic ally in the Middle East,” he wrote.

It’s in keeping with the President’s “instinctive affinity for authoritarian figures,” wrote John Avlon, and his cynical read on American exceptionalism: “The biggest difference with Donald Trump is that he’s been quick to condemn America’s past policies not from an idealistic human rights perspective but from a cold realism that is quick to call the United States morally equivalent to other countries, like Russia. No other US president would refuse to condemn Putin’s extrajudicial killings by saying ‘you think our county’s so innocent?’”

Nick Paton Walsh

suggested that

Trump’s “we won” mantra

“set the tone for this year’s spate of attempted assassinations or failed abductions — and, possibly, a new era of impunity. Be it on a door handle in Salisbury, England, or inside the Saudi consulate in Istanbul … the essential message is the same: We don’t really care if we get caught.”

Elites may not like it, observed

Damon Linker

in The Week, but “

the President views international relations in transactional terms.”

Khashoggi’s killing “would be a crime worth lamenting and condemning,” but “for the first time in a very long time, the man occupying the Oval Office appears to be almost totally unmoved by moral appeals in dealing with the rest of the world” — and that is welcome.

And in a

prescient final column for the Washington Post,

received by his editor the day before he disappeared,

Jamal Khashoggi

himself lamented the death of the Arab Spring. He gave as an example the Egyptian government’s seizure of the entire print run of one newspaper: “These actions no longer carry the consequence of a backlash from the international community. Instead, these actions may trigger condemnation quickly followed by silence. As a result, Arab governments have been given free rein to continue silencing the media at an increasing rate.”

Here come ‘The Conners’

Make it stop, pleaded

Clay Cane.

The matriarch of the family has overdosed on opioids, went the storyline in the “Roseanne” reboot that premiered Tuesday. “Clearly, ABC wants to maintain the cash cow” without its former star’s racist baggage.

Enough.

“We must stop moving backwards. We must stop wading in nostalgia … from our television shows to our old guard politicians.”

But “The Conners” is very much about now,

argued show runner,

Bruce Helford

, in the Hollywood Reporter. “I wanted a respectful sendoff … one that was relevant and could inspire discussion for the greater good about the American working class,” he wrote, like “the unbowed Conners as they deal with the economic inequalities of life in lower-income America with love and humor.”

Melania and misogyny

Jill Filipovic

thought

the T.I. video that went viral this week

put the rapper in the same “piggish, unrepentant misogynist league” as the President. In the video, “a Melania Trump lookalike strips in the Oval Office, dancing for T.I.’s pleasure after the President leaves the White House,” Filipovic wrote. (Melania Trump’s spokeswoman called it “disrespectful and disgusting”) Spare us the outrage, wrote Filipovic: “the T.I. video is sexist and shameful. But if Melania’s team and Trump administration supporters want to boycott the sexist and shameful, they need to start at home, with the man in the White House.”

Finally, high time for Canada

First the bad news:

Pot can raise your “risk of psychotic illnesses”. The good news, at least for Canada? In “making it legal to buy, grow and own weed,” this week, noted science writer

Tom Chivers

, and in “imposing draconian penalties on people who sell to minors,” Canada takes the industry out of the hands of drug cartels. And that, he said, will “make it easier to keep the drug out of the hands of children.”
