Last month, it wrapped up a historic season that notched all-time viewership and attendance records while racking up brand deals and corporate sponsorships for its players along the way. Players of different backgrounds landed a variety of other endorsement deals with companies like CarMax and State Farm. The WNBA recently partnered with Kim Kardashian’s underwear brand SKIMS, which featured women of color as well as LGBTQ+ players in its ads. Risa Isard, assistant professor of sport management at the University of Connecticut, analyzed online articles from ESPN, CBS Sports and Sports Illustrated from the 2020 WNBA season and her peer-reviewed study found that Black WNBA athletes received less media attention than white WNBA athletes. “I am having quite a bit of success now that I didn’t have then," she said, which makes her hopeful that sponsorship opportunities for Black LGBTQ+ female athletes also will continue to grow.

BAKU, Nov 18, 2024 (BSS/AFP) - Nations return to deadlocked UN climate talks Monday, with hopes that G20 leaders meeting on the other side of the world can rally support behind a deal for poorer countries. They account for 80 percent of global emissions," Guterres said, calling on the group to "lead by example." - Hosts under pressure -The conference opened in the shadow of Donald Trump's re-election in the United States, and efforts to shore up support for the global climate fight took another knock when Argentina's delegation withdrew from the summit. They also want wealthy emerging economies not obligated to pay climate finance -- most notably China -- to share the burden. The European Union is the biggest contributor to international climate finance but faces political and budget pressure, and could be left exposed should the US refuse to pay up under Trump.

China's Xi says to 'enhance' ties with Brazil as arrives for G20: state mediaRIO DE JANEIRO, Nov 18, 2024 (BSS/AFP) - Chinese leader Xi Jinping said he was seeking to "further enhance" ties with Brazil as he arrived Sunday for a state visit and a G20 summit, state media said. Xi is due to meet Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva on the visit, which will last until Thursday. Both Brazil and China have sought to position themselves as mediators in the conflict in Ukraine, while declining to sanction Russia for its invasion. A visit this year by Vice President Geraldo Alckmin to Beijing was seen as paving the way for Brazil to join China's massive Belt and Road Initiative infrastructure project. A number of South American nations, including Peru, have signed up to the initiative which is a central pillar of President Xi's bid to expand China's clout overseas.

I wish to share my public appreciation for all the professionals involved in our Carroll County Drug Treatment Court system that assists citizen offenders in their recovery. My attendance over the years as a public official (commissioner/delegate) at the Drug Court’s graduation ceremonies, so graciously hosted by Carroll Community College, gives me peace and solace. Seeing individuals whose lives were completely consumed by the destructive vice of addiction turn their lives around is something all of us must praise and respect. For us to ignore the addict on the sidewalk does us no good and only adds to the long-term harm. Christopher Eric Bouchat, a Republican, is a state delegate representing District 5, covering Carroll and Frederick counties.
