Here's the somewhat confusing deal: Braun is very good friends with clients such as Ariana Grande and Justin Bieber. A giant in the entertainment field, Braun's media holding company (Ithaca Holdings LLC) announced in a statement on Sunday that it and Big Machine Label Group reached a "finalized contract" under which Ithaca Holdings will acquire the latter company. Why is this relevant? Because the latter is Swift's former record label. The deal, made for a reported $300 million, includes Big Machine Music -- which means the following; Braun's company will now control all six albums that Swift has released to d

And then — from the top rope! — out of nowhere, came team president Pat Riley, making a blockbuster move. The Heat acquired superstar Jimmy Butler in a sign-and-trade with the Sixers, and the Mavs got involved as well, so Miami was able to get Goran Dragic’s deal off the books. The team did have to give up young “three-and-D” guy Josh Richardson, but the addition of Butler could keep the team in the playoffs once again.

Source: minnesota.cbslocal.com - Friday, June 28, 2019 MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) – Hundreds of people in a Minneapolis neighborhood gathered together Thursday night to admire and appreciate the cats that live among them. The community news website Wedge LIVE! reports that an estimated 300 people turned out to the Lowry Hill East neighborhood, nicknamed “the Wedge” due to its shape, for the annual event. As the crowd grew in size, moving from house to house to view the resident cats, traffic was blocked, and, at one point, police were called. Even so, the tour continued. Some cats joined the tour in strollers, according to photos on social media . Others were leashed or on the shoulders of their owners. Many of the resident cats remained indoors, peering at their enthusiastic neighbors from behind windows. Some proud cat owners held their pets before the crowd. One man appeared with his cat wearing a paper-mache cat mask. All Related Source: Breaking News

Joseph Biden of Delaware, seen in 1975, told NPR at the time that he supported a constitutional amendment to ban court-ordered busing programs to integrate schools.; Credit: /AP Domenico Montanaro | NPR In 1975, one of the most divisive cultural and political issues of the time was busing, the practice of putting black and white children on buses and sending them to different schools within a school district to achieve integration. Factoring prominently into the debate against busing, however, was a young, liberal, 32-year-old Delaware senator by the name of Joe Biden. Asked in an interview at the time by NPR's David Ensor whether he would go so far as supporting a constitutional amendment to stop court-ordered busing, Biden was open to it. "That would clearly do it," he said, adding, "I'm going to go at it through a constitutional amendment, if it can't be done through a piece of legislation." Here'

On June 28, 1969, police clashed with protesters who fought back when they raided the inn. The riots that followed gave rise to the gay rights movement. As we mark half a century of progress since the Stonewall uprising, we acknowledge there is much left to do in order to secure equal rights, acceptance and protections for members of the LGBTQ community in the United States and around the world. We hear from Cathy Renna, an LGBTQ Activist and spokesperson for Pride and Mark Horn, an activist and leader of the Gay Youth Movement on where we stand now and what needs to happen next.

Welcome to the Great Crunchyroll Naruto Rewatch ! I'm Joseph Luster and I'll be your host this week as we continue ninja-running through all 220 episodes of the original Naruto   anime adaptation. After last week's spicy blend of the conclusion to the Curry of Life arc and a handful of one-offs in episodes 155 - 161 , it's time to get downright spooky with the Land of Birds arc in episodes 162-168 .   This time around we have a storyline that's almost beefy enough to take up the entire seven episode bundle. It's also one of the few times a filler story has focused on a baddie who isn't really connected to Orochimaru in anyway, but it still gives Naruto and his team the opportunity to evoke some of the emotions that run through the core of the show, reminding us that Sasuke is still out there somewhere.     Before Naruto can get to him, he's gonna have to solve a straight-up Scooby Doo mystery. Thus, without further ado… Submitted for the approval o
