Sorana Cirstea, a Romanian tennis champ, is begging for the return of her trophy that was stolen from her New York City hotel room while she was competing in the U.S. Open. "Whoever stole my Cleveland trophy from room 314 at The Fifty Sonesta please give it back!" Cirstea, 35, wrote on her Instagram Story on Saturday, August 30. "It has NO material value, just sentimental value. It would be (greatly) appreciated!" Cirstea was eliminated from singles play on Thursday, two days before she announced the theft. The trophy in question, which was allegedly taken from her hotel room in Midtown Manhattan, was earned earlier this month when the tennis pro won her third career singles title in the Cleveland warmup to the U.S. Open. The win marked her first harcourt singles title since 2008. Cirstea lost in the second round of the 2025 U.S. Open in Flushing Meadows to 11th seed Karolina Muchova. She was also competing in the women’s doubles but she and partner Anna Kalins...

Why We Love This Deal New Balance enthusiasts are undoubtedly delighted by the New Balance Labor Day sale going on this weekend.

Instead, Joe’s New Balance Outlet is the best place to score a deal on some of the brand's best runners , including one of our favorite tech-forward shoes. The New Balance Fresh Foam x Balos are now 30% off. When we tested them last year, we found them to be an outstanding option for more serious runners, as they are undoubtedly pricey.

Spirit Airlines has filed for bankruptcy for the second time in a year amid the company's 'fragile financial position.' "Since emerging from our previous restructuring, which was targeted exclusively on reducing Spirit’s funded debt and raising equity capital, it has become clear that there is much more work to be done and many more tools are available to best position Spirit for the future," Spirit CEO Dave Davis said. "After thoroughly evaluating our options and considering recent events and the market pressures facing our industry, our Board of Directors decided that a court-supervised process is the best path forward to make the changes needed to ensure our long-term success." He went on to say that they "have evaluated every corner" of the company. "We will be far more strategic about our fleet, markets and opportunities in order to best serve our Guests, Team Members and other stakeholders," he added. "Guests can continu...

Bella Ramsey has received two Emmy nominations for their portrayal of the fiercely loyal—and totally bada**—Ellie in The Last of Us . Turns out, the character was a perfect fit for the 21-year-old.  Despite its nearly universal critical acclaim, The Last of Us —which is adapted from a much-loved video game—has also been ruffling feathers since HBO announced it was turning it into a series. Like so many existing properties with a massive fan base before it, fans of the original game had many concerns, and opinions, when it came to just about any piece of news about the show. And Ramsey, who has often been the target of fan criticism, finally seems over it.  While appearing on the latest episode of Entertainment Weekly ’s The Awardist podcast , Ramsey got real about the online hate that they and their co-stars, along with the series’ creators, received during the second season—particularly following the (SPOILER ALERT) gruesome death of Pedro Pascal’s character, Joel, just tw...

When it comes to flying, even being hundreds of miles in the sky can lead to some dangerous situations. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) confirmed two passengers on a SkyWest Flight were seriously injured after experiencing "severe turbulence" on August 28. SkyWest flight 5971 was en route from Aspen, Colorado, to Houston, Texas, on Thursday evening, August 28. The flight that held 39 passengers and four crew members was forced to reroute to Austin-Bergstrom International Airport due to turbulence, where it made a safe landing at around 8 p.m. local time. According to the report, 90 minutes into the journey, the aircraft suddenly dropped 4,000 feet within less than a minute. Over the next few minutes, the aircraft continued to lose altitude and rapidly descended more than 25,000 feet before it altered its course to Austin. While the plane made its approach to land, the pilot informed traffic control of the situation and that some passengers may be injured. "...

The shakeups amongst the cast of Saturday Night Live are apparently not over yet as another rookie announces his departure. Emil Wakim revealed on Wednesday that he will be exiting the longtime NBC sketch-comedy show after just one season. In an Instagram post shared on August 27, Wakim says he was told via a phone call that he would not return to the show.

All social media can talk about is Taylor Swift's recent engagement to Kansas City Chiefs star Travis Kelce. While Swifties and fans rejoice over the couple's newfound status after two years of dating, one supplement brand could care less. In a viral TikTok video with over two million views, 1st Phorm employees were asked what they thought about the engagement news. Some faked enthusiasm, a simple "ok?", and some not even knowing who Swift is engaged to. "With who? Travis Kelce? Ok. What do you want me to do about it?" replied one employee after being asked what he thought of the news. "I don't give a f*ck," replied another. One employee had a simple, lackluster response saying, "Who? Engaged? Ok. To who?" and after being told Swift was engaged to Kelce, he continued by saying, "Oh yeah! ok." The latest employee in the video responded with, "Who gives a f*ck?" The 1st Phorm TikTok video has incited a series o...

Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift are engaged, and Patrick Mahomes is celebrating the couple. Pretty much ever since Kelce and Swift went public with their relationship in September 2023, people have been speculating if and when they would get married. As time wore on, it became clear they were in it for the long haul. On Tuesday afternoon, the duo officially announced their engagement in a joint Instagram post showing the Kansas City Chiefs tight end on his knee popping the question to the Midnights singer in the middle of an outdoor garden scene. "Your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married 🧨," Swift captioned the post.

Fall menus are on the horizon at major chain restaurants around the country, which means get ready for plenty of pumpkin over the next couple of months. McDonald's is set to introduce two fall items later this week. According to McDonald's Menu Spotter , the company's version of the ubiquitous Pumpkin Spice Latte will return on Aug. 29, along with a beloved dessert item.

Love was in the air at Friday's Coldplay concert, and lead singer Chris Martin made sure it wasn't the illicit kind. Martin and his band unexpectedly became the center of a social media controversy last month when Astronomer CEO Andy Byron and Kristin Cabot, the company's head of HR, were caught in an embrace on a "kiss cam" during a Coldplay show in Massachusetts. Byron and Cabot are both married to other people, and the immediate backlash led to them both having to step down from their jobs. It also led to a debate about the need for "kiss cams" at shows. On Friday night at Wembley Stadium in London, a couple was back on the Jumbotron for a public proposal, with Martin cracking jokes as he helped the process along. cute proposal at today's jumbotron. not chris martin doing background checks now 😂 @coldplayxtra #coldplaywembley pic.twitter.com/lcw9RaEIvC — John Pham (@jdcpham) August 22, 2025 "Okay, now listen.

There might not be a more snakebit athlete in the world right now than Tommy Fleetwood, but Caitlin Clark has faith in the 34-year-old Englishman heading into the final round of the Tour Championship Sunday. Fleetwood has infamously never won on the PGA Tour. A seven-time winner on the European Tour, he's come tantalizingly close to winning all four majors but has never finished better than second. Most recently, Fleetwood had a heartbreaking collapse down the stretch at the Travelers Championship in June and also fell apart in the final round at the FedEx St. Jude Championship earlier this month. Fleetwood went into today tied with Patrick Cantlay atop the Tour Championship leaderboard at 16-under. After an early birdie, he now holds a two-shot advantage over Russell Henley. Caitlin Clark is a Fleetwood believer There's a long way to go this afternoon, but Caitlin Clark made it clear she thinks Fleetwood will finally snap the curse. Clark, an avid golfer when she's n...

Born on May 17, 1997, in Voorhees Township, New Jersey, Tommy Paul picked up a tennis racket as a child and never put it down. By 18, he was already on the pro circuit, announcing himself in a big way when he took home the junior Roland Garros title over fellow American Taylor Fritz. From there, he steadily climbed the ranks, with his breakout moment coming in 2023 when he battled into the semifinals of the Australian Open, his first Grand Slam semifinal appearance. Now, over a decade after his first US Open, Paul is back in New York with far more than just youthful excitement on his side. What once felt like a dream has evolved into a career defined by hard work, focus, and consistency, qualities he admits weren’t top of mind when he was starting out. “I feel like I didn't know anything at that time,” he says. “I was just super excited to be there. I feel like now, I've just surrounded myself with really good people, people who push me to do all the right things. I work a l...

Amazon founder, billionaire, and newlywed Jeff Bezos has a morning ritual that he swears by. Many sites have called it the "one-hour rule," and research backs it up, although Bezos didn't put an exact time frame on the practice when he outlined it in interviews. Simply put, in the mornings, he takes it easy, and stays off of electronic devices. Here's how it works. Jeff Bezos Says He Likes to 'Putter in the Morning' Bezos gave details about his morning routine while speaking at the Economic Club. In the well-known interview, Bezos detailed his morning routine. He said he doesn't like meetings before 10 a.m., and he likes to get eight hours of sleep. "I like to putter in the morning. I get up early. I go to bed early, I get up early. I like to putter in the morning. I like to read the newspaper. I like to have coffee," he said in the 2018 interview. "I like to have breakfast with my kids before they go to school. So, I have my kind of ...

Have people gotten more rude in public in the past five years?  A survey by the Pew Research Center found more than half of Americans did not think so.  While 20% said people are “a lot more rude” in public since the COVID-19 pandemic, and another 26% who see “a little more” rudeness, nearly as many — 44% — said rudeness is about the same.  Adding in the nine percent who saw a little or even a lot of implementation tipped the scales into the positive range.  What does that mean?  Well, rudeness is in the eye of the beholder, but it might be fair to say the deck is stacked against the perception of politeness.  After all, what one person finds objectionable, a majority could find to be fine, but just a few violations of etiquette could lead someone to decide for themselves that rudeness is on the rise, even if most of their public interactions are positive.  Case in point: While roughly three quarters of respondents said smoking around others (7...
