A 37-year-old baseball fan is suing for $10 million after she was hit in the head by a flying bat during a game in June. Yankees fan Stephanie Duluc was watching her team play the Cleveland Guardians from fourth-row seats directly behind home plate when Guardians infielder Jose Ramirez’s bat went flying into her section. It sailed over the protective netting and hit Duluc “with such force that it knocked her from her seat and violently threw her to the ground, causing her to sustain severe and permanent injuries,” including a traumatic brain injury, concussion, severe light sensitivity, and permanent damage to her neck and hands, the suit alleges. Her injuries have left her “unable to return to her professional duties” as chief of staff at the Bronx-based SOMOS Community Care, which owns season tickets in the section where Duluc was sitting. Her suit argues the stadium is responsible because the netting in that section was “significantly lower” than adjacent sections, leaving an “unprotected opening” for the bat to shoot through. The Yankess declined to comment.

David Owori, the captain of a Ugandan soccer club, has died after being brutally attacked during a robbery outside his home in Kampala. The 27-year-old player of the country’s national team and SC Villa team was assaulted late Tuesday after trying to stop thieves from stealing his cellphone and other belongings. Witnesses told local media the attackers repeatedly struck him with paving stones before fleeing the scene. Passersby found Owori, widely known by his nickname “Colgate,” and rushed him to Sir Albert Cook Hospital. He was later transferred to Case Hospital for specialized treatment but died from his injuries early Wednesday. Police said investigators are collecting evidence and searching for those responsible. SC Villa called the killing a “senseless act” and urged authorities to bring the attackers to justice. “We call upon the relevant security and law enforcement agencies to urgently pursue, apprehend, and bring to justice the perpetrators of this heinous crime,” the team wrote in a statement. The club described Owori as a respected leader whose commitment and professionalism inspired teammates and supporters. The Uganda national team said Owori “carried the hopes of a nation.”

Meta says one of its AI models got onto the open internet during a security test and broke into a third-party company’s systems. A spokesperson for Mark Zuckerberg’s company blamed a “misconfiguration” by Irregular, the outside firm that ran the evaluation, and said it will publish more “once we have all the facts.” The model was Muse Spark 1.1, billed by Meta as its best yet at coding and acting on its own. It “exploited a security vulnerability in a third-party service,” the company said in a statement. It is the fourth such breach an AI company has disclosed. Rival AI firm OpenAI said its agents went after a string of services open to the public, while Anthropic ran its own checks and found its Claude model had hit other firms too. The Meta incident was the “exact same evaluation-environment issue” Anthropic disclosed a week earlier, an Irregular spokesperson said, and not a test-mode “escape.” Republican state attorneys general have told OpenAI to preserve records on its own breach.

ZZ Top axed their Hollywood Bowl concert Wednesday with hours to go before showtime, blaming “unforeseen personnel matters.” The Texas trio entered the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2004. Guitarist Billy Gibbons, 76, now fronts a lineup with Frank Beard, 77, on drums and Elwood Francis on bass. Francis replaced founding member Dusty Hill, who died at 72 in 2021. Gibbons said in the band’s Instagram post that “insurmountable obstacles require canceling our Hollywood Bowl performance.” The group told supporters to stand by and pledged refunds covering tickets, parking and travel passes. Cheap Trick, sharing dates on the run, was booked for the same Bowl bill. The group instead moved to the Troubadour, a West Hollywood club, for a stripped-back gig. Beard, in the lineup since 1969, sat out last year’s Elevation Tour over a health problem, with John Douglas filling in. Fans urged Beard to retire then, and commenters on Wednesday’s post pointed to other aging rockers calling off shows.

When it comes to liver-focused supplements, many of us assume they’re only for recovering from a hangover or for people who drink heavily (or at least frequently). But alcohol is just one small part of the equation. Your liver is responsible for hundreds of essential functions, including filtering waste products from the blood, processing nutrients, supporting metabolism, and producing bile. This digestive fluid helps break down fats and absorb fat-soluble vitamins. When bile secretion or liver function is less than optimal, digestion can suffer, possibly contributing to symptoms like bloating, gastrointestinal discomfort, and sluggishness.

In other words, whether you drink alcohol or not, your liver could probably use a little extra TLC—especially if you’re dealing with persistent digestive issues such as bloating, irregularity, or stomach discomfort. Vitamin Shoppe is celebrating Wellness Month this August, with a slew of products formulated to support your liver (along with digestion and metabolism). Still, our favorite is Dose For Your Liver’s liquid supplement.

Dose for Your Liver Daily Shot

Dose For Your Liver has earned the nickname “liquid gold” for good reason. The daily wellness shot is formulated with science-backed ingredients traditionally associated with liver health, including turmeric, milk thistle, dandelion, and ginger. The formula also contains bioflavonoids and other plant compounds designed to support healthy liver function, digestion, and metabolism. Plus, it actually tastes good. The bright, citrusy flavor reminds me of the SunnyD “orange drink” I grew up on, minus the artificial ingredients and sugar overload. Instead, you’re getting a concentrated mixture of botanicals with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties that may help support the body’s natural detoxification processes and general digestive health.

If you’re looking to give your liver (and, by extension, your digestive system) a little extra support without adding yet another capsule to your supplement routine, Dose For Your Liver offers a convenient way to combine several popular wellness ingredients into one surprisingly delicious daily shot. Grab a bottle (or two) on sale at The Vitamin Shoppe this month.

Scientists have used the world’s most powerful solar telescope to capture new images of the sun in the finest detail yet. Researchers used the NSF Daniel K. Inouye Solar Telescope near the summit of Maui’s Haleakalā to reveal tiny, swirling patterns that resemble small whirlpools on the surface of the sun. While the images were originally taken to test the limits of the telescope, scientists realized they had actually captured the sun’s bright outer shell at higher resolution than ever before, including the feathering patterns rippling across the surface. “That reminds me of famous paintings, like the swirling skies in Van Gogh’s Starry Night,” solar physicist Ruizhu Chen at Stanford University told the Associated Press. Chen was not involved with the new research. The findings were published on Wednesday in the journal Nature. The scientists suggested that the patterns are the signature of Kelvin-Helmholtz instability, or KHI. KHI may be a key reason why the sun’s outer atmosphere gets so hot, and also why magnetic energy builds up and moves around on the sun. It could also help explain explosive solar activity and other solar phenomena. Scientists research the inner workings of the sun to track major bursts of energy known as coronal mass ejections which can hurtle toward Earth. They can trigger solar storms when they land, potentially scrambling GPS communications.

A legendary rock vocalist and Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee is officially hanging up his microphone to undergo urgent, major open-heart surgery. Deep Purple star Glenn Hughes, 74, revealed the difficult decision in a message to fans following months of worsening health issues. “The results from numerous MRIs, CT scans, and an echocardiogram have alerted my medical team, that I need another open-heart surgery,” the English-born bass guitarist and singer wrote. “I really have no option and no choice as health is my number one priority.” The musician first rose to prominence in the 1970s with Trapeze before joining Deep Purple in 1973 alongside David Coverdale, helping define a generation of hard rock before his 2016 Hall of Fame induction. After canceling a U.S. tour earlier this year over medical concerns, Hughes made the step back permanent. Expressing deep gratitude for his five-decade career, Hughes added, “Grateful to have been chosen with a life full with the gift of music… Thank you for walking beside me.”

A deadly volcano that claimed the lives of 30,000 people may have reawakened. Some 1,500 miles southeast of Florida, the Caribbean island of Martinique is home to the imposing Mount Pelée, which in 1902 erupted with such violence that it launched a superheated gas cloud into the air and ripped through the nearby town of Saint-Pierre in minutes. Between July 24 and 31 this year, scientists recorded 124 earthquakes, with the Martinique Volcanological and Seismological Observatory saying that that month the island had been rocked a total of 331 times. While earthquakes do not prove for certain that a volcano is active, they are often caused by magma pushing up against the rock beneath the volcano, which can cause it to rupture. Experts have not said there is an immediate threat, although several inches of ground displacement have also been recorded by experts around its summit. In an alert, the observatory said, “The probability of eruptive activity in the short term remains low,” but noted that the displacements observed “are consistent with deformation of the volcanic edifice induced by an inflating pressure source located at a depth of approximately 1 km (0.6 miles) beneath the summit.”

Homemaking mogul Martha Stewart said how she really felt about Meghan Markle’s entrance into the “cooking space.” “If you’re an actress, it’s hard to then transition to a princess and then from a princess into a homemaking guru on a television show,” the 85-year-old cookbook author said. “It doesn’t sort of follow.” Former Suits actor Meghan Markle, 45, and her husband, Prince Harry, 41, stepped down from their senior royal titles in 2020, after a falling out with a number of senior royals. They retained their titles as the Duke and Duchess of Sussex. Since moving to California in 2020, Markle has involved herself in various projects, including her lifestyle, cooking, and hosting brand As Ever and her Netflix series With Love, Meghan. “Authenticity, to me, is everything,” Stewart said in July 2025. “To be authentic and knowledgeable about your subject matter is extremely important.”

Rock music duo Air Supply was set to perform in Fresno, California, but event organizers canceled the concert two days before the event. The show was set for Thursday at the Save Mart Center, alongside the Little River Band, before the venue made the announcement on social media. “Unfortunately, the event has been canceled by the event organizer. Refund information can be found in link in bio,” the venue wrote. While an official reason was not provided, fans in the comments speculated that low-ticket sales drove the cancellation. “ya, there was no way they were going to sell that many tickets,” one user said. “So you’re saying… you’re cutting off our Air Supply?” another fan joked. Tickets will be completely refunded within 14 to 21 days. The Australian duo was formed in 1975 and achieved global success, with their best-known hits including “All Out of Love,” “Making Love Out of Nothing at All,” and the chart-topper “The One That You Love.” The band has not made any comments on the cancellation but is expected to perform in Hawaii on August 11, 13, 15, and 16 at the Blue Note venue.

An investigation has been launched after two planes nearly collided at Australia’s largest airport. The Australian Transport Safety Bureau said it is looking into an incident that occurred on July 27 after air traffic control gave clearance for a Boeing 737 Qantas flight from Canberra to cross between runways at Sydney Airport. However, at the same time another Qantas plane, a Bombardier DHC-8 coming in from Queenstown, New Zealand, was preparing to land. The ATSB said the air traffic crew stopped the Boeing 737 before it entered the runway, allowing the second Qantas aircraft to carry out its landing roll. There were no injuries, and both were able to continue normal ground operations without any further incident. Video taken at the scene shows the moment the two planes came within a matter of feet of each other while both on the runway. ATSB attributed the close call to a “breakdown of co-ordination.” Qantas said it will be assisting the ATSB as part of the investigation, while insisting that both flight crews were following air traffic control instructions at the time.
