The Louisville Cardinals were the saddest team in men’s college basketball only one year ago. Kenny Payne’s disastrous head coaching tenure reached rock bottom with consecutive seasons of some of the worst basketball in history for a program with as much tradition as the Cards. In 2022-23, Louisville started 0-9 with losses Bellarmine, Wright St., and Appalachian St. to open the season. They went 2-18 in the ACC, and finished 4-27 overall. Last season wasn’t much better: Louisville went 3-17 in the ACC and finished 8-24. Payne was fired after the season, and eventually replaced by College of Charleston coach Pat Kelsey. Kelsey wasn’t the Cards’ first choice, but his infectious energy, up-tempo offense, and consecutive NCAA tournament appearances gave Cardinals fans hope for the future. If nothing else, it

Teardown video shows a broken Volkswagen ID.4 front drive unit. A simple sealing ring seems to be the cause of the failure. Compared to combustion engines, electric drive motors are shockingly simple. Case in point: the front drive unit of the Volkswagen ID.4 and Audi Q4 E-Tron you see in the video embedded below. It’s a very compact unit that integrates the motor, transmission and inverter. However, there is a problem with this particular one: it’s dead. By the looks of it, a bad sealing ring allowed coolant to go where it wasn’t supposed to go, killing the entire unit. In the video, YouTuber I Do Cars , who is well-known for taking apart combustion engines, tries his best to take the front drive unit apart to see what went

TriStar Pictures In 1997, director Paul Verhoeven and screenwriter Edward Neumeier, the makers of 1987’s “RoboCop,” reteamed to make “Starship Troopers,” a satirical take on Robert A. Heinlein’s 1959 novel. “Starship Troopers” takes place in a future where Earth has, for many decades, been at war with giant, intelligent insects from a distant planet. Human society, however, has devolved into a fascist state, and people have all become empty-headed, fist-pumping propaganda vehicles. Media has become bite-sized, and in-your-face. It’s no coincidence that the humans are all wearing very Nazi-like uniforms by the film’s end. “Starship Troopers” wasn’t fully appreciated in 1997. It got mostly negative reviews, and many critics didn’t seem to pick up on its more satirical elements. It was also only a modest hit, making $121 million on a

Being a female artiste in Africa is like playing chess, except your opponent moves freely while you have to submit a written request before making a move. Work twice as hard, prove yourself five times over, and still someone, somewhere, will whisper, “She must have a sponsor!” Meanwhile, a male artiste buys a yacht, and the world erupts in applause: “The grind never stops!” The industry loves to pretend it’s fair, but if it were a football match, men would have the whole field while women play barefoot on gravel.

By Joshua Worlasi AMLANU The mining industry has raised serious concerns over the government’s decision to triple the Growth and Sustainability Levy from one percent to three percent on gross production, warning that the move could significantly erode investor confidence and undermine the sector’s long-term stability. The increase, announced as part of Finance Minister Dr. Cassiel Ato Baah Forson’s 2025 Budget Statement delivered to Parliament on Tuesday, will extend the levy until 2028, shocking industry leaders who claim they received minimal advance notice and no meaningful consultation. Sulemana Koney, Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the Ghana Chamber of Mines, criticised the government’s approach, saying the industry was blindsided by the policy shift. “What concerns me most is the lack of consultation. I am aware of companies actively seeking investors to

Leon Balogun has revealed he asked God to help Jack Butland secure a penalty shoot-out win over Fenerbahce – and admitted he believes Rangers can now go all the way in the Europa League.

James Tavernier, Vaclav Cerny, and Tom Lawrence all scored for Barry Ferguson’s side in the shoot-out with Ianis Hagi seeing his effort saved. However, Butland was the hero in setting up a last-eight showdown with Spaniards Athletic Bilbao. He kicked things off by getting his body in the way of Dusan Tadic’s effort, but, with the scores balanced at 2-2 after Hagi’s miss
