NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! Sen. Jon Ossoff, D-Ga., is being accused by Georgia’s top child welfare official of using vulnerable children and the state’s embattled foster care system for campaign credit after releasing a new ad touting his work on the state’s troubled system.Georgia Division of Family & Children Services (DFCS) Director Candice Broce criticized the new foster care-focused ad released last week as the Georgia Democrat seeks re-election in one of the nation’s most closely watched races. In the ad, titled “Our Kids,” Ossoff highlights “a scathing report” and “yearlong bipartisan investigation” alongside Sen. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn., into the Georgia foster care system. Ossoff presents his probe and new legislation as part of his record protecting children and holding the system accountable. However, Broce says the Democrat is overstating his role and turning a serious child welfare issue into a political victory lap.”For five years, I’ve been in the trenches fighting for vulnerable children and foster care reform alongside thousands of DFCS workers. Trust us when we say Jon Ossoff is nowhere to be found,” Broce said in a post on X. “Ossoff didn’t get more funding for DFCS after calling us incompetent and resource-strapped. He…

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! More than six years after the University of California system’s Board of Regents moved to stop using standardized test scores in undergraduate admissions, The New York Times Editorial Board is urging the UC system to reverse course.In an editorial published Monday, the paper’s editorial board called the UC system’s decision a “terrible” mistake that left students less prepared for their college coursework. The editorial comes just days before the UC Board of Regents is expected to consider revisiting the policy.The UC system in 2019 put together the Standardized Testing Task Force (STTF), an 18-member committee comprised of professors from across all 10 campuses. The committee was tasked with studying how the UC system used standardized testing scores in its undergraduate admissions. Around a year later, the group released a 225-page report with its findings and recommendations.”The STTF found that standardized test scores aid in predicting important aspects of student success, including undergraduate grade point average (UGPA), retention, and completion,” the group’s report read.CALIFORNIA BOARD OF REGENTS TO REVIEW SAT/ACT TESTING BAN AFTER 1,400 PROFESSORS WARN OF ‘SEVERE’ MATH GAPS Despite the group’s conclusion that the scores played a key role in predicting…

Team USA did not have the first-half start they were hoping for against Belgium in the Round of 16, and head coach Mauricio Pochettino displayed some rightful frustration because of it.Belgium sent a shock to the USA system not even 10 minutes into the match when Charles De Ketelaere tapped in a ball served right in front of Matt Freese’s net and sent a silent murmur over the sold-out Seattle Stadium crowd.But things felt back to normal when Malik Tillman, who scored a free kick in the second half against Bosnia and Herzegovina in the Round of 32, did it again.

[ enter (verb): to come or go into ] RECOIL Magazine has never been just about guns. We believe in well-rounded, self-reliant, and capable individuals, as well as the importance of building foundational skill sets. One of those key skill sets for the well-rounded gentleperson is the ability to gain entry to places and things, even if they’re secured.  Perhaps noisily and overtly, but even better quietly and covertly. When you think about what might deny you entry to something, the first thing that probably comes to mind are locks. Locks on doors, locks on containers, locks on vehicles — there’s locks everywhere in modern society. Imagine ancient times; to really secure a structure or belongings, you’d need to post guards. The first example of a lock dates way back to 4,000 B.C. In the ruins of the city of Nineveh in Mesopotamia (today, Iraq) was a rudimentary pin-tumbler lock made of wood. Mankind is nothing if not resourceful, and over the centuries since, we moved on to metal construction, keyed and keyless locks, and now electronically actuated locks. With these advances, physical security has become — at least potentially if not always in practice — both more convenient and…

My, my how the tables have turned.When FIFA announced that they’d suspended the red card punishment of US Men’s National Team striker Folarin Balogun, it set off a firestorm of criticism. European soccer fans, the Belgian national soccer federation, the Union of European Football Associations, and many other commentators were outraged that Balogun’s unjust red card had essentially been delayed.Their complaints have been mostly incoherent and illogical, with UEFA’s statement in particular being laughably inaccurate.EUROPE IS FURIOUS OVER BALOGUN REPRIEVE BUT FIFA SUSPENDED RED CARD BANS FOR RONALDO AND OTHERS BEFORE THIS”Football, like any other sports, relies on rules, which are the basis for fair, honest and transparent competition,” they said. “Sometimes rules are open to interpretation. In this case not. A minimum automatic suspension of one match following a red card is not a discretionary option and does not require the decision of a competent body to be enacted. It is a principle embedded in regulations, which cannot be made subject to exceptions, let alone in the middle of a tournament where several other players have been in the same situation and regularly served their suspension.” Notably, UEFA had no complaints when Cristian Ronaldo’s three-match red card suspension was…
