The Bugatti Bolide is a track-only hypercar unlike any other It's the type of car you'd expect to find in a climate-controlled garage waiting for the 2088 Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance The power turns the Porsche 911s and other incredible performance cars on the track into annoying traffic for the Bugatti driver. A McLaren Senna is little more than a blur as the Bugatti passes it The Bolide has a lower top speed than the Chiron it doesn't even get near that on the track The digital display shows the Bugatti reaching a top speed of 186 mph—still pretty nuts for a road course with another year of testing before deliveries began It's great to finally see the car on the track bringing joy to riders and fear to other drivers Bugatti Bolide 100 Year Anniversary Edition in Laguna Seca 2026 Jeep Compass Unveiled: Hybrid or EV With Up to 375 HP Bugatti Bolide: After track tests here are the first deliveries Lotus Emira With Yellow Exhaust Tips Pays Tribute to an F1 GOAT Bugatti Bolide uses largest Brembo carbon brakes of all time The Cadillac Celestiq Will Be as Rare as a Bugatti Bugatti brings the track-only Bolide to Goodwood Please enable JS and disable any ad blocker Former NASCAR Cup Series driver Kasey Kahne is the pace car driver for the Wurth 400 at Texas Motor Speedway on May 4.

While conceding his unfortunate pre-sprint race crash in the wet on Saturday morning "made the whole day a lot more difficult" than it otherwise might have been for Ferrari Leclerc refused to use that as an excuse for underperformance though again - as has been the case basically since Japan - Leclerc said he had to "change massively the car in order to have kind of a balance I liked" which suggests whatever underwhelming lap time he is able to extract from the Ferrari is not coming easily Efforts to upgrade the car have also so far missed the mark with Leclerc especially irate with the new floor introduced for Bahrain not really lifting the performance ceiling of the car in the way Leclerc expected it to do last time out in Jeddah Leclerc refutes any suggestion the Ferrari is still somehow rideheight compromised in the way it was through the first two races of the season and which led to that ugly grand prix disqualification for Hamilton in China after winning the sprint While it's true Ferrari was closer to the pace again in sprint qualifying here compared to grand prix qualifying Leclerc calls that a "coincidence" because he insists (without directly mentioning it) that Ferrari did not need to raise the car's ground clearance between the sprint race and GP qualifying Miami anyway seems to be a track where a decent rideheight is not quite so difficult to achieve as it is in some places when questioned on this apparent sprint/GP discrepancy by The Race's Jon Noble "And whatever we do with the car - we can run it in different ways but we just don't have the downforce the others have at the moment This lack of low-speed performance has to be of major concern to Ferrari which has built much of its success in this rules era on being extremely strong at circuits with a bias towards slow-speed corners Could it be that in attempting to make the sort of all-rounder needed to challenge properly for a world championship Ferrari is now going through the sort of pain Williams itself experienced in 2024 when it basically improved its weaknesses at the expense of its strengths because this is only his sixth grand prix with the team but he's certainly feeling the pain of not being able to coax a tune from what is turning out to be a very unresponsive instrument but it wasn't off pure pace it was on strategy," he said complaining again that the Ferrari's unfamiliar Brembo brakes are "very difficult" for him to use "I was one of the first in this morning to make sure that we took the right steps through the day "This car's just different every time you go out The smallest bit of time today and I was out I probably would have been in Q3 and then it would just be that I'd be eighth or ninth with Charles The fact is we are trying and we don't have the pace at the moment We've got lots of things that need to be better."

See our ethics statement It’s just another series of posting double digits and crooked numbers for a Cubs offense that is setting the standard for all of baseball through their first 34 games of the season. There are a lot of ways to look at this juggernaut, like the home run milestones Al wrote about yesterday or the team batting average that was the best in baseball heading into Saturday The number I’m going to focus on tonight though is about as simple of a measure as you can get for any baseball team: the number of runs scored in the number of games As the weather turns warmer all of us will look to spend more time outside cookouts with friends or trips to the lake Today’s musical interlude channels that energy better than just about any song I’ve ever heard: The song was written as a collaboration between Otis Redding and Steve Cropper According to Cropper the first lines were the impetus for the song as Redding was inspired by watching the ships while he was living in California: Sittin’ in the mornin’ sunI’ll be sittin’ when the evenin’ comeWatching the ships roll inAnd then I watch ‘em roll away again I’m sittin’ on the dock of the bayWatching the tide roll awayI’m just sittin’ on the dock of the bayWastin’ time Earlier this week I had some time around sunset to hang out at Solana Beach near San Diego It was one of the most beautiful beaches I’ve ever been to and while there weren’t ships rolling in and out the time spent basking in the beauty of the ocean under bluffs with wildflowers thriving was anything but wasted I left my home in GeorgiaHeaded for the ‘Frisco bayI’ve had nothing to live forLook like nothin’s gonna come my way So I’m just gonna sit on the dock of the bayWatching the tide roll awayI’m sittin’ on the dock of the bayWastin’ time The masterpiece was recorded just days before Redding’s death in a plane crash, giving it the unfortunate distinction of being the first posthumous number one single in the United States Back here in Cubslandia the Cubs kept up their torrid offensive pace as April turned into May they lead the league in games with at least eight runs scored: This marked the Cubs’ eighth game with at least 10 runs scored this season and the latest flurry pushed the North Siders to 202 runs on the year This represents the fastest a Cubs team has eclipsed 200 runs (33 games) since the 1938 squad (203 runs in 33 games) is whether this offensive pace is sustainable over the course of a full season I looked at the Cub runs per game on Baseball-Reference and found that at 6.12 R/G in 2025 the Cubs are currently scoring at a rate that is higher than any Cubs teams since 1901 except two: the 1930 team who finished 90-64 (2nd in the NL 6.4 runs per game) and the 1929 team who finished 98-54-4 (winning the NL and losing to the Philadelphia Athletics in the World Series According to Statmuse the single season runs per game mark since 1900 was set by the 1930 New York Yankees at 6.9 it’s sort of wild to realize that the Cubs all-time mark of 6.4 runs per game wasn’t even first in baseball that year Looking at the more modern game, since 1960 there are only four teams who have posted a runs per game number higher than 6. You can see those teams in descending order according to Statmuse It would be a pretty remarkable feat for the Cubs to keep this scoring pace through a full season but honestly looking at this offense in the chilly months of March and April I can’t help but think if they stay healthy they’ve got as good of a chance as any team in the majors to pull it off Is the 2025 Cubs offensive pace sustainable Feel free to debate the question into the wee hours of the morning and bring your friends along for boisterous conversation reminiscent of the bleachers on a soon to be warm May day Just be sure you tip your waitstaff and bus your own tables I’d hate to leave a mess for Josh on Monday Here's how to watch the 2025 D'Youville vs Pace University on FloCollege To provide some context and perspective on the story who lives and works and owns racehorses in California and has for many years whose support of the federal racing integrity law led to his ouster as a director of the United States Trotting Association has been following the Cal-Expo story for decades Years after his departure from Trackmaster he’s still keeping track of wagering data and what it portends What happened at Cal Expo and why do you think it happened SIEGEL: Cal Expo harness racing is really not a unique story It is representative of what has happened to harness racing (and Thoroughbred racing) over the last 30 years the public has spoken loud and clear about their interest in racing the interest has and will continue to decline I could write volumes just on this one point but handle numbers bear out this fact clearly Casino gambling and more recently the introduction of legalized sports wagering has given the public more choices for their wagering dollars Add that to the fact that the equivalent take-out for sports and casinos is around 5 percent or less it makes the case for racing tougher to convince consumers to put their money there.The particulars of Cal Expo are simple Thoroughbred racing in northern California was basically killed when Golden Gate Fields closed One attempt to resurrect the racing at Pleasanton failed miserably as there were simply not enough horses and wagering to sustain that meet with the State Fair at Cal Expo being one of those The state then made an assessment that maintaining the track just for 38 days of harness racing was simply not worth it given their next best use of that property was So they made an economic decision to exercise an early lease termination right they had in the lease agreement with the harness operators COHEN: You crunched some numbers on this last week And the charts (that accompany this interview) quite clearly show the scope of the decline Race days have declined precipitously over the last 20 years the Cal Expo operators adjusted the race days so that purses per day remained roughly flat even in a couple of years a modest increase So while real (inflation adjusted) handle declinced 80% or so in the time period did a fantastic job in minimizing the impact of lack of public interest to keep the lights on A huge amount of recognition should be given to Chris for managing this situation as well as he did over the last many years This drop in handle and total purses is only the tip of the iceberg a more stringent (and therefore costly) regulatory environment and other challenges made keeping the Cal-Expo harness operation afloat a near impossibility I personally feel very sorry for the horsemen who will find relocation difficult or impossible and I can only hope they planned for this day as it should have been clear to most that this day was coming many of which are also seeing drops in handle?SIEGEL: You asked the $64,000 question that frankly and some people are not going to like my answer Given the competitive environment for the wagering dollar I don't see a practical way for any kind of growth it at least does something to appease (better) the animal rights folks and even regular folks who look unfavorably at all of the kinds of cheating that goes on as we all know the Standardbreds are so much better than Thoroughbreds in this regard But we need to improve in changing how the public perceives drug use and other forms of cheating Next thing we need to at least try are some innovative improvements in the gaming side of things fixed odds are better positioned to attract sports bettors than pari-mutually based odds now possible with real-time tracking systems is another innovation already being done in the UK for Thoroughbred races with good success We should be pushing regulators to allow for this innovation Racetracks can also use some modern-day technology to put together more competitive races and studies have proven that based on wagering patterns these races have greater parity in the pools and have resulted in modest increases in wagering I know this is only possible with great contraction in the number of races being run since the tracks are largely a fixed cost operation but you asked about protecting what we have left This is what WILL happen naturally if and when the subsidies end anyway do everything one can to keep the subsidies flowing so the industry should do all it can to minimize this risk This is what baffles me the most about the USTA's position on HISA will inevitably end?SIEGEL: I think the public is catching onto the fact that the public really has little to no interest in the underlying product There are only two arguments I hear to justify these subsidies (as opposed to having the same casinos that those monies now destined for purses go to other worthy causes - homelessness This goes to the open fields where hay is grown or where mares and foals roam But how big?The other reason is economic impact But there are scores of examples of the public losing interest in industries over time the industry should do all it can to maintain these funds the individuals in it need to understand the economics behind the justification for the subsidies and in doing so should understand that they are likely to decline over time as much as they don't want to believe it I think they do understand that without them most facilities cannot survive.COHEN: Thanks I know that there are other smart people in harness racing who share this generally pessimistic view And I know of a great many people in the sport who see problems growing without any sort of comprehensive vision or plan from within the industry to solve them Every minute the United States Trotting Association spends spinning propaganda about HISA is a minute the USTA hasn’t spent figuring out how to improve the basic economics of the sport It is no mystery why Cal-Expo closed or why Freehold Raceway in New Jersey closed last year How many more tracks have to close before we see some sense of urgency It is likely the most we will ever know of what is essentially the USTA’s justification for the sanctions against Diamond Creek and company The USTA didn’t answer the many questions I have about the SRIF investigation and the USTA’s role in embracing it but it did provide important details that help us figure out what exactly happened here.I give the USTA credit for releasing this information And it’s up to Diamond Creek and Howard Taylor to decide whether they want to continue this discussion in public There are still far too many unanswered questions about the Surick investigation like why the USTA chose to pick a fight with Diamond Creek for its first published SRIF investigation Here’s the biggest one of all: What’s the USTA going to do about the conflict of interest its president has when it comes to investigating his breeding farm’s competitors?I continue to receive feedback from within the Standardbred community about this saga Some folks are more supportive of the USTA some are more supportive of Diamond Creek’s decision but I have not yet heard from anyone who says that he or she is confident that the investigation and its results were as fair or transparent as they ought to have been Some owners say they’ll leave the sport if they ever are the subject of an SRIF investigation This pushback was certainly foreseeable (if not inevitable) once the USTA created an investigative arm to look at things that state regulators can’t look at or (more precisely) won’t look at By Andy Cohen is a

integrity topic you want us to share Let us know via email at andrew@paulickreport.com has an 80 percent chance of rain on Kentucky Derby day Ed agrees to help Simon look into the abduction The unlikely pair can barely stand each other at the onset Both leads have a series of unique quirks that make each of them relatable and help the audience understand their unorthodox partnership Morgan and Quaid each deliver strong showings that make their respective characters stand out when all is said and done We see how each has been alienated by society—Simon for his struggles with mental health It’s sweet to see them gradually grow on one another and eventually come together to support one another I really wanted to see a little more action transpire in the first two acts Simon and Ed’s investigation into the suspected abduction often moves at a glacial pace The setup doesn’t foster much tension until roughly an hour into the ordeal the dynamic between the central pair doesn’t really begin to pay proper dividends until that point either there’s all this build to an admittedly satisfying conclusion but I really wish that the abduction storyline was tweaked to deliver more thrills in the film’s earlier moments.  My other chief criticism is that the central mystery isn’t all that surprising The beats in the case that Ed and Simon come together to investigate are by the numbers rarely deviating from the standard formula The relationship between the two goes a long way toward making up for the film’s shortcomings but I couldn’t help thinking that a few tweaks to the screenplay would have improved the proceedings substantially Neighborhood Watch is a touching film worth checking out Just make sure to temper your expectations because the picture’s pacing causes some issues during the first two acts and the proceedings are almost entirely void of surprises If my cautious endorsement has you itching to seek out the flick you can find Neighborhood Watch on VOD

Camgenium, please visit www.camgenium.com Cardiac Tech is an early-stage medical device company that is developing novel technology in the field of temporary pacing with the goal of improving patient outcomes and reducing mortality post-surgery Many people are unaware that after open heart surgery patients often experience rhythm disturbances which can lead to serious complications patients are typically fitted with a temporary pacing system to regulate their heart and ensure normal cardiac output is maintained during recovery Temporary pacemakers are relatively unsophisticated devices when compared to permanent pacing systems as they are unable to monitor their own thresholds the pacing wires that are relied upon to deliver therapy can be displaced through movement or be subject to contact degeneration as the surrounding tissue changes can lead to a failure to identify acute and sudden changes in pacing function or patient underlying rhythm leading to an extended and costly ITU stay Other more serious consequences of a failure to recognise changes in pacing parameters can result in pacing-induced cardiac arrest and even death Cardiac Tech has received venture and grant backing to develop its patented intracardiac signal monitoring technology and software algorithms and is working with Camgenium to deploy its technology in the highly-regulated clinical environment To

Also going top 10 in the event, Zane Hodges was ninth in a time of 14.37 Seven events down the line, Ims (Sandnes, Norway) went 58.65 while battling heavy wind in the 400m hurdles, finishing as the top collegiate performer but third overall.

Winner of the John R. Wooden Award and a focal point of Duke’s tournament run, Flagg is projected to go No. 1 overall to the Washington Wizards “Flagg isn’t quite at the Victor Wembanyama level of prospect over the last 20 years, but he belongs in the Anthony Davis tier,” Vecenie wrote In a draft where few prospects are considered sure things beyond the top two selections Flagg stands out as a rare franchise-caliber player Duke Blue Devils forward Cooper Flagg (2) and forward Kon Knueppel (7) Supporting Cast with Lottery PotentialFellow freshmen Kon Knueppel and Khaman Maluach also appear in the lottery range. Knueppel, who averaged 14.4 points per game and shot efficiently from beyond the arc, is projected sixth overall to the Philadelphia 76ers His shooting profile and ability to play off the ball make him a natural fit at the next level Maluach, a 7-foot-2 center with Olympic experience for South Sudan, lands at No. 12 to the Chicago Bulls His length and efficiency (87% FG in the NCAA Tournament’s early rounds) offer raw tools that could translate well with further development Veteran Talent Still Drawing NBA InterestDuke’s upperclassmen are also making appearances in the draft conversation. Junior Tyrese Proctor, who posted a career-high 12.4 points per game, is projected 37th to the Detroit Pistons. Senior Sion James, who transferred from Tulane and brought two-way value to Duke’s rotation, is slated at No. 47 to the Milwaukee Bucks Both players offer NBA teams experience and a steadier floor than many late-round prospects Duke Blue Devils guard Tyrese Proctor (5) with the ball as North Carolina Tar Heels guard Ian Jackson (11) defends in the first half at Dean E but May 12’s lottery draw may prove to be the most consequential date of the year With Flagg viewed by many as the lone surefire franchise cornerstone 1 pick could alter the course of an organization’s future Duke has positioned itself not only as a college basketball powerhouse but as a driving force in shaping the NBA’s next generation Colton Herta has consistently shown early practice speed at Barber Motorsports Park – placing no worse than fourth over the past four years that early promise hasn’t translated into standout race results at the 2.3-mile Herta’s best qualifying effort at Barber is ninth in 2019 and 2021 and his best race finish is eighth last year “I think the racing part is because we qualify so badly here It’s the only track (on the 2025 schedule) that I’ve gone to that I’ve not made the

technical clarity to attacking the Barber race weekend That includes having a more precise vision of what he needs from the No 26 Gainbridge Honda leading into qualifying at 2:30 p.m “Today was one of the more important sessions of the weekend because you get both sets of tires,” Herta said Feels like we’re the only team who didn’t test here in the winter The team really made a statement to roll off the trucks with speed “I do think we have some more left in the tank but I’m not sure what everybody else has.” Alex Palou’s return to Barber Motorsports Park comes with momentum and a fresh look – and possibly a psychological edge The NTT INDYCAR SERIES points leader is running the striking Honda Racing Corporation (HRC) white yellow-and-red DHL livery used in the season’s first three events The HRC branding connects him back to the offseason crossover test in Las Vegas where Formula One driver Yuki Tsunoda drove an NTT INDYCAR SERIES car with the same livery Palou picked up right where

their baseline setup His history at Barber suggests he will be a factor in Sunday’s 90-lap race Palou won in his Barber debut in 2021 and never has finished outside the top five in four career starts Palou’s average finish of 3.3 at Barber is best among all drivers since 2021 Will Power arrived at Barber with a rich qualifying pedigree His four poles at the Alabama road course are the most of any driver and part of his all-time record of 70 in the NTT INDYCAR SERIES recent form casts some doubt on whether he can add a fifth Saturday Despite his glowing praise for Barber’s high-commitment layout and ending up fourth in the opening practice in his No Power’s 2025 qualifying performances have been underwhelming His average start of 15.7 across three starts including a low of 21st at The Thermal Club suggests Team Penske hasn’t fully unlocked its one-lap pace yet this year there are reasons to believe this could be a turnaround weekend for Power He turned 19 solid laps in Friday’s practice with a top time of 1:07.7869 just .0399 of a second behind leader Ericsson “It’s funny that you go through those cycles,” Power said We’re definitely quick in all the practices and in the race see if we can make it in the Fast Six and Top 12 to start with because we haven't done that this year.” McLaughlin moved to the United States in late 2020 with his American wife to become an NTT

has questioned how long that pace can be sustained amid a series of challenges Canada’s homebuilding industry reached a historic milestone last year with a record 260,000 completed housing units with that achievement narrowly surpassing the previous record of 257,000 units set five decades ago in 1974 The report indicates that homebuilders responded vigorously to the pandemic-era housing demand surge though the impact on available housing stock took several years to materialize due to construction delays and complexity of large-scale projects “Homebuilders were working on 345,000 units of all types in the first quarter of this year across census metropolitan areas,” noted Hogue highlighting the robust construction pipeline unsold condos under construction are six times higher than standing inventory Hogue warns that the industry faces significant headwinds Construction costs have increased 36% since 2021 making it increasingly difficult for builders to offer affordable homes while maintaining profit margins pre-construction sales have plummeted to levels “unseen in decades” in Toronto potentially disrupting the future pipeline of new housing The report identifies several factors affecting the market’s trajectory The federal government’s recent immigration policy pivot is expected to significantly slow household formation potentially easing pressure on housing demand the inventory of move-in ready units has rebounded toward pre-pandemic levels with condos representing nearly half of available inventory A bright spot in the report is the renaissance in purpose-built rental apartment construction which has outpaced all other housing types in Canada’s large urban areas since 2022 following “decades of lacklustre activity” in this segment While housing completions reached an all-time high Hogue emphasizes that this expansion “still fell well short of the number of units required to close the housing supply gap,” suggesting that despite record construction Canada continues to face significant housing challenges What are your thoughts on the recent findings Starting college is exciting—but let’s be real Knowing who’s who on campus can make

dozen hits and struck out 13 opposing hitters as they salvaged the final game of a three-game series in Dunedin (15-12) Stafura crushed a Gilberto Bautista over the fence in left-center for a leadoff

Leclerc was visibly disappointed after qualifying sixth for Formula 1's Miami Grand Prix sprint race, registering his 'annoyance' that Ferrari had lacked pace thus far this weekend The Monegasque had arrived in Miami with the understanding that he was finding pace in Ferrari's SF-25 through a series of set-up tweaks that had ensured the car was handling more to his liking albeit helped by some of his fellow front-runners not setting times due to a late-session red flag Ferrari at least gave the illusion that it was in the mix for a grid slot on the front two rows Instead, Leclerc was over three tenths shy of pole, albeit just 0.017s off George Russell's early SQ3 lap that granted the Mercedes driver fifth on Saturday's grid although Ferrari's through-corner speed was solid it was struggling to maintain it through the traction zones out of the lower-speed corners - and Leclerc's comments lent credence to this "It's bad," Leclerc said of his sprint qualifying session "I'll try my best tomorrow to try and do something special with the start there's not much room for improvement today so it's not like we are particularly weak in one type of corner the slow speed seems to be a little bit more of our weakness His Ferrari team-mate Lewis Hamilton followed a similar thread in his post-sprint qualifying dissection once again noting that the car had felt better in the opening practice session The seven-time champion did note that it was a "better" session compared to his recent travails in qualifying but simply noted that Ferrari was struggling for pace in its first attempt at a competitive qualifying session FP1 was probably a bit better; the car was a bit nicer to drive in P1 But I'll just keep working on from there," Hamilton said whether or not they're going to be right or not "But there's definitely learnings to take from today and there's definitely work to do to pick up speed going into the rest of the weekend."

of the Galaxy with indie sensibilities It's a film that doesn't concern itself with world-ending or multiversal threats the script sometimes feels like a therapy session explicitly stating the characters' emotional struggles saving someone is as important as saving the world But the portrayal of the Void might leave some comic book fans wanting more I am not too familiar on the comic book counterpart of it but I didn't feel the danger at all when it was revealed later on what it is all about Maybe I am nitpicky here but it was also shown in the trailers how people are just passing by them all bloodied and emotional in the street For a movie that shows "how are you" is a superpower no one from the crowd did that and seem unbothered with Florence Pugh being an excellent choice to lead the ensemble Her performance brings a lot of depth and charisma to the film Everyone has their own time to shine (poor Taskmaster though) and given ample characterization for us to understand and relate with what they are going through Their rapport and energy is reminiscent of the GOTG cast which is great Harbour brings in the humor as the super soldier wishing for the glory days of his past Louis-Dreyfus as Val is that annoying pest that you want crushed but always gets out of tight situations The score by Son Lux is a standout feature Son Lux also did the music for Everything Everywhere All at Once enhancing the action and emotional depth of the story I am not sure though if the Doomsday cast announcement is a good idea which unfortunately spoils the characters' fates also gives away too much on another team's fates These elements detract from the overall experience by removing some of the suspense and surprise this film has enough merit but the announcement don't seem to echo trust Much has been discussed about what the asterisk means as well and it might be divisive Time will tell how the audience will react to it The film does a great job of introducing and developing its characters allowing the audience to get to know them well in just one movie especially considering what might happen in Avengers Doomsday We need such characters as it has been on low supply since Phase 4 started Thunderbolts is a solid film that offers a more intimate and emotionally driven superhero story it succeeds in creating a unique and engaging experience It is a suprise that this ended

that eliminating Head Start would be catastrophic for the millions of children and families who rely on it Parents want to make child care choices that best support their family’s individual needs and their child’s development This is especially true for the two-thirds of children ages five and under who require care because all available parents in their household are working too many parents are left with very few options and struggle to afford the care they do find Existing provisions in the federal tax code can play a powerful role in easing the tremendous financial burden of child care for working families, but they simply aren’t doing enough. The bipartisan Promoting Affordable Childcare for Everyone (PACE) Act Claudia Tenney (R-NY) and Brad Schneider (D-IL) would make much-needed updates to current tax provisions helping more parents afford the child care they need.  When child care is hard to find and hard to afford The high cost and low availability of child care forces families to make tough decisions Some parents may have to put their careers on hold Many go into debt or take on considerable financial strain.  And child care challenges do not only affect families — they have become a leading concern among employers Many employers report that child care challenges directly impact their ability to recruit and retain employees This has serious repercussions on daily productivity and ultimately affects their bottom lines and costs our national economy billions of dollars in lost revenue this bipartisan bill would help more families afford child care by strengthening existing federal tax provisions – the Child and Dependent Care Tax Credit (CDCTC) and DCAP (Dependent Care Assistance Plans) to help more families find and afford the child care options they need The policies in the PACE Act are popular with voters Pairing tax reform with robust funding to strengthen child care supports families with young children while ensuring greater economic stability across the country strong funding and tax reform have the power to benefit working parents and young children while supporting economic stability across the country and working parents simply can’t keep up,” said FFYF Executive Director Sarah Rittling “The Promoting Affordable Childcare for Everyone (PACE) Act takes a significant step towards making care more affordable by updating two important tax provisions: the Child and Dependent Care Tax Credit (CDCTC) and Dependent Care Assistance Plans (DCAP) This legislation is a direct investment in hardworking families who need support as they look to re-enter or stay in the workforce Claudia Tenney and Brad Schneider for their work to provide much-needed relief to parents and caregivers.” FFYF reports on the latest child care & early learning news from across the country Subscribe and take 5 minutes to know what's happening in early childhood education affordable child care is essential for hardworking families especially as two-thirds of all children under the age of five need care because all available parents are working Families with infants and toddlers are struggling to find consistent access to child care according to a March 2025 fact sheet from RAPID First Introduced: July 2024 Reintroduced: March 2025.  Parents want to make child care choices that best support their family’s individual needs and their child’s development Receive monthly updates on the latest news and actions to advance federal investment in children and their families you agree to the storing of cookies on your device to enhance site navigation American superstar Tye Ruotolo settled the score with longtime rival Dante Leon and retained his ONE Welterweight Submission Grappling World Title in U.S The pair went head-to-head at Bangkok’s Lumpinee Stadium in the co-main event of ONE Fight Night 31: Kongthoranee vs. Nong-O II on Prime Video, and this marked the trilogy match between the elite Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belts. View this post on Instagram A post shared by ONE Championship (@onechampionship) Ruotolo exploded into a picture-perfect blast double-leg takedown early in the contest to secure top position and set the tone for the remainder of the encounter. The titleholder pushed a high pace for several minutes, where he constantly flanked his adversary and looked to pass the guard. For his part, Leon defended well with incredible flexibility and inversions, but his guard would only hold up for so long. With four minutes remaining, Ruotolo burst into a guard pass that landed him in a dominant position – the most significant moment of the match yet. But again, the Canadian hung tough and was able to recover his guard. View this post on Instagram A post shared by ONE Championship (@onechampionship) Ruotolo continued to keep the aggression at a fever pitch in the closing minutes, employing his trademark leg pin guard-passing and unique scrambling ability to force Leon on the defensive. The contest ended in a wild back-and-forth exchange, but ultimately, neither athlete was able to score a catch. Following 10 minutes of action, their fate was in the hands of the ringside judges. Though it was a close battle, the American’s aggression and effective passing from top position was good enough to earn him the unanimous decision victory.

Back in the 1800s, mountain men braved the wild Green River Valley meeting each summer at the Green River Rendezvous to trade furs and swap stories You can visit the Museum of the Mountain Man to learn about those early days Hike to the Green River Lakes, where alpine views stretch for miles with hardly a soul around. Chuckwagon Days brings the whole town together for rodeos and old-school fun. And on Main Street, you will find local shops instead of big chains, with plenty of time to browse without the crowds. Pinedale was once the most remote incorporated town in the United States Thermopolis is known for its quiet charm and warm waters The town was carefully planned after the land was sold by the Shoshone and Arapahoe Tribes in the late 1800s moved to this new site after the 1896 Treaty Streets and sidewalks were laid out with room to grow and the town remains centered around the famous Big Horn Springs one of the largest hot mineral springs in the world you can soak in the natural hot pools for free the Wyoming Dinosaur Center has real dig sites and an impressive fossil collection The Swinging Bridge is also a relaxing walk with a view of the Bighorn River below Saratoga is a quiet town in south-central Wyoming It has a long history tied to Western life and outdoor adventure Scenic drives through the nearby Snowy Range are peaceful especially with the Sierra Madre Mountains in view The North Platte River runs right through town known for its blue-ribbon trout fishing and calm plus the famous Ice Fishing Derby at Saratoga Lake a historic inn that’s been around since 1893 Dubois is a quiet mountain town where the pace of life hasn’t changed much in decades Fur traders and explorers passed through in the early 1800s Charles Moore opened one of the first “dude” ranches nearby you can visit the National Bighorn Sheep Center Even the gas stations feel like stepping back in time Dubois was once nearly named “Neversweat,” a nod to its dry climate rustic escape surrounded by wild land and deep history Greybull is a quiet town with a surprising history and plenty of charm a man named George Scott saved the town by dropping dynamite from a plane to break up an ice jam Locals still remember him as “Santa,” since he dressed as one every Christmas after that Basin was founded in 1896 by Winfield S. Collins and became the county seat of Big Horn County. Originally called “Basin City,” it was incorporated as “The Town of Basin” in 1902. The town grew alongside the Big Horn Basin’s agricultural boom, especially in sugar beet and bean processing. Today, it’s a quiet place where you can walk without rushing. The Big Horn County Courthouse, built in 1907, stands proudly in the center of town. The Greybull River runs nearby, perfect for fishing or watching birds glide across the water. You won’t find fast traffic or big crowds here, just a steady rhythm and plenty of space to breathe. Centennial is a tiny mountain town just west of Laramie along Highway 130. It sits in the Centennial Valley between Sheep Mountain and the Snowy Range, with the Little Laramie River running through it. Native American tribes like the Cheyenne, Arapaho, Ute, and Lakota once hunted and traveled through this area long before settlers arrived. Founded in 1875, Centennial has a deep railroad and mining history, which you can learn about at the Nici Self Historical Museum. Today, Centennial is all about quiet days, scenic trails, and mountain adventures. The Snowy Range Scenic Byway runs through town and leads to hiking, biking, and skiing spots in the Medicine Bow National Forest. You can stay off-grid at the Snowy Range Lodge and walk straight from your cabin to a nearby trail. It’s also worth visiting the Deerwood Wildhorse Ranch for a rare look at wild mustangs. Meeteetse is a tiny town with a big story, just 30 miles south of Cody. The name comes from a Shoshone word meaning “meeting place,” and it still feels like one, with wooden boardwalks, hitching rails, and buildings from the 1890s. The local museum shows life from the early days with photos by Charles J. Belden and stories of ranchers, outlaws, and grizzlies. A short drive away is Kirwin, a ghost town hidden in the mountains where miners once searched for gold and silver. Back in town, don’t miss the Meeteetse Chocolatier, run by a real former cowboy. Small-town rodeos bring locals together every summer, full of grit and charm. Encampment is a quiet mountain town with around 500 residents. It began as Grand Encampment, named by French-Canadian trappers in the 1800s. The discovery of copper in 1897 turned it into a mining hub. A 16-mile tramway once carried ore down the mountain; part of it still stands at the Grand Encampment Museum, where you will also find old cabins, a two-story outhouse, and guided tours. In June, the Woodchoppers Jamboree and Rodeo brings chainsaws, rodeo shows, and a fun local melodrama at the century-old Opera Hall. For outdoor time, the Encampment River Trail is a quiet walk by the water, and Brush Creek offers peaceful hiking and camping in the Medicine Bow Forest. Another curious stop is the Willis House, built in 1908 by a businesswoman with bold plans but left unfinished. Ten Sleep is a small town at the base of the Big Horn Mountains. It got its name because it was “ten sleeps” (or nights) between Sioux camps on ancient trade routes. Today, it’s a quiet ranching town built around cattle and sheep. The downtown is small, with friendly local shops, a public library, a pioneer museum, and a peaceful park. Outdoor activities are a big part of life here. In the summer, you will find people hiking, rock climbing, horseback riding, or fishing. In the winter, Ten Sleep Canyon turns into a snow-filled playground for skiing, snowboarding, and ice climbing. A local favorite is the Ten Sleep Brewing Co., where you can sip craft beer and look up at the stars. Another highlight is the nearby Red Gulch Dinosaur Tracksite, where you can literally walk in dinosaur footprints! These towns in Wyoming aren’t rushing to catch up with the rest of the world, and that is the whole point. Whether you are driving through or staying a while, expect fewer people, more space, and time that moves just a little slower. From hot springs and hiking trails to diners and dusty museums, these places keep things simple and calm. If you are tired of packed schedules and constant noise, Wyoming’s small towns might be exactly what you need.
