Ever since World War II, stocks have always risen in a presidential election year-two thirds of those years at a double-digit percentage pace. But this time, even the optimists are capping their Dow forecasts at 3600. That’s up 9.6 percent from last week’s 3285 close-low, compared with the prospects overseas. Now more than ever, you should add foreign stocks to your regular investment plan. Individuals decidedly favor U.S. stocks. In the six months ending in April, a record $68 billion flooded into stock-owning mutual funds, much of it fleeing low-interest bank accounts, money-market funds and similar investments....

But is visual literacy synonymous with visual smarts? Johns Hopkins University media professor Marc Miller doesn’t think so. “It’s just not the case that teenagers are growing up more visually sophisticated by virtue of being immersed in video images,” he says. The medium just isn’t that demanding. “It doesn’t take a genius to [watch campaign ads and] start associating the Democrats with Willie Horton.” Even with the simplest of images, seeing is not discerning....

Clubs themselves keep most of the good stuff in house but supporters are nonetheless accustomed to being permitted to see for themselves just how hard players are working. It’s one of the things which has separated the pros from the amateurs. Underage teams and amateur league teams have never truly been able to measure this data in the same kind of way. There were always limitations for what coaches or players themselves could measure....

Consider Lydia, who complained of stomach pains for several weeks. She visited her primary care doctor who referred her to a gastroenterologist. A gastroenterologist is a specialist who takes care of our digestive systems—everything from the stomach through the intestines through the colon. The gastroenterologist sent Lydia for some tests, and when the results came back, he told Lydia he didn’t see any problems. He prescribed a drug to help control the nausea, and Lydia went home, hoping the nausea would go away....

Ariana Grande announced she will be making her coaching debut on The Voice for the next season of the NBC singing competition. The 27-year-old pop star shared an Instagram photo on the set of the long-running music show on Tuesday, writing that she was “beyond excited” to join fellow coaches Blake Shelton, Kelly Clarkson and John Legend. Grande will replace Nick Jonas, who returned as a coach for Season 20 in March....

Typically a NASCAR race winner will get the checkered flag during his victory celebration moments after winning a race. But Almirola, who won the rain-shortened Coke Zero 400 on Sunday, never got the checkered flag at Daytona International Speedway. A torrential downpour had ended the race, not the flagman waving the checkered flag. MORE: Almirola and The King | NASCAR response to RTA | N.H. picks | More upset possibilities...

“With an increased focus on larger, more impactful events and uses of the city-owned arena, the city of Glendale has chosen to not renew the operating agreement for the Arizona Coyotes beyond the coming 2021-22 season,” the city stated in a press release. The city owns the arena, and the contract for another season after the upcoming schedule would need to be signed by Dec. 31. Either party could decline extending the contract, which the city did....

Lake, ex-gubernatorial candidate for Arizona, filed a lawsuit this month against Democratic Governor-elect Katie Hobbs and other state election officials, challenging the midterm results in which Lake lost to Hobbs by just over 17,000 votes. A state judge dismissed eight out of the 10 counts in Lake’s lawsuit this week, but permitted the remaining counts to proceed to trial, both of which relate to accusations of ballot print malfunctions that Lake’s legal team allege led to hundreds of thousands of illegally cast votes....

The lawsuit, filed on December 27, seeks to challenge the 1887 Electoral Count Act, a law that requires Vice President Mike Pence to oversee a congressional approval of the Electoral College’s final votes for president. The lawsuit, filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District, argues that the law violates the 12th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, which, they say, gives Pence the right to singlehandedly throw out any votes that were fraudulently obtained, no matter whether the majority of Congress agrees....

The event, which is being held in Phoenix, is advertised as featuring a number of prominent local Republicans, including Senate candidate Blake Masters and Kari Lake, who is running for governor. Those wishing to attend must pay between $1,000, if they want the “private experience package” and $10 if they are a student or a veteran. VIP tickets are also available at $500 each and general admission tickets for $20....

Well into the fourth quarter in Saturday's 60-6 loss to Arizona Lutheran Academy, Youvella fell hard on his head and collapsed a couple of plays later. He died Monday at the hospital of a traumatic brain injury, the Arizona Interscholastic Association said. Youvella's death was a somber end to a football season in which the players had grown more enthusiastic about the game on the small northeastern Arizona reservation. It also comes at a time when head injuries in football are attracting attention at all levels of the sport....

The video of the incident at the Target location in the Scottsdale-Mesa suburb of Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community has begun making rounds on Twitter, and she has already been dubbed “QAnon Karen.” The footage starts with the unseen woman talking while the camera was pointed at a display of protective face coverings. She can be heard saying: “Finally we meet the end of the road.” The woman also says she has been looking forward to it “her whole life” and that she’s not playing anymore “games....

Deval Brockman, the child’s mother, said one of the directors of His Kids Preschool in Russellville told her, “I am not going to tell you how to raise your child but you need to reevaluate how you’re parenting her,” according to the Little Rock-based TV station KARK 4 News. The conflict began last month when the 6-year-old wore a T-shirt to daycare that read, “All lives can’t matter until Black lives matter,” Brockman told the station....

Humphrey filed the lawsuit in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Arkansas and named 23 defendants, including current Little Rock Police officers, LRFOP members and associates. In Humphrey’s 95-page lawsuit, he claimed that since 2000, the LRFOP has actively undermined at least one Black reform-minded police chief, Lawrence Johnson in 2002, and a Black reform-minded mayoral candidate, Frank Scott in 2018. Humphrey also said the LRFOP had endorsed police chief and mayoral candidates and who opposed and rolled back police reforms....

Despite Missouri State sitting within the top-10 in the FCS rankings with a former Power Five head coach (Bobby Petrino) and QB (Jason Shelley), the Razorbacks had to dig themselves out of a fairly large hole, falling behind 17-0 to the Bears in the first half. Arkansas was able to get the offense going from the second quarter on, scoring all 38 points in quarters two through four. The final score is a bit misleading, as this game was played more like a one-score game while Arkansas ended up notching a double-digit victory....

John Fitzgerald Johnson, also known as The Real Grandmaster Jay, leader of the Not F***ing Around Coalition (NFAC), said the group will be taking part in a formation in Louisville on July 25 in videos posted online. In one video, Johnson urged NFAC to arrive dressed in “black boots, black button down shirts, black mask, shotgun, semi-automatic or rifle, pistols [in] thigh holsters or under your arm.” Johnson added: “If you are not in that uniform, you won’t be in the formation....

Images emerged on social media showing a group of men, some of whom were carrying baseball bats and other objects, threatening and intimidating people taking part in the protests near the 26th District police station in the Fishtown area of the city on Monday. The men gathered following days of looting and rioting in the city after disorder broke out in the wake of the protests. Officers allowed the armed men to remain on the streets even after the imposed 6 p....

Well, at least rival Fox Sports wants to put more heat on the former “College GameDay” reporter/host, courtesy of Charissa Thompson’s “Fox NFL Kickoff” pregame show. With Berman benched at ESPN after 31 years, Fox Sports president Eric Shanks told Sporting News he sees an opening for Thompson’s three-year-old “Fox NFL Kickoff” to surpass Ponder’s “Sunday NFL Countdown” as the top NFL pregame show in the 11 a.m. to 12 noon E....

That’s not the case for Brett Toth. The standout offensive lineman knows the numbers posted in events like the 40-yard dash and bench press are critical components in the talent evaluation being made by NFL teams. Toth, though, is far more worried about conquering two other physical challenges in the coming weeks. And understandably so. As part of his obligations as a West Point cadet, Toth is required to pass the U....
