In April, ahead of the NFL Draft, Nicole Pullen Ross, head of private wealth management for the New York region at Goldman Sachs, gave the incoming class of rookies a game plan for their careers: “Think like a CEO,” she advised them.

Pullen Ross, a partner at Goldman who advises professional athletes, went on to explain that regardless of which team players join, they have to start building their own team and surround themselves with trustworthy advisors much as a chief executive does.

Now, with the 2023 NBA Draft tipping off on June 22 at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, Pullen Ross wants NBA rookies to heed the same wisdom. As teams prepare to transform at least 30 players into multimillionaires, including 7-foot-5 French phenom Victor Wembanyama, who is projected to be the No. 1 pick, Pullen Ross is pushing the new rookie class to guard their finances by acting like a top executive.

For fans of all things monarchial, a royal portrait release is an exciting time. And while any Windsor family moment is a fascinating one, there’s a particular frenzy around snapshots of the children—George, Charlotte, Louis, Archie, and Lilibet—since they aren’t seen at events quite as often as their parents. The most recent example? An adorable picture of the Wales children with their father, Prince William, which was shared by the family to honor Father’s Day in the U.K.

Before today, Wyndham Clark had competed in six major championships and finished no better than tied for 75th.

But instead of one of golf’s big names celebrating on the 18th green among roaring fans at the U.S. Open on Sunday, the relative no-name Clark crashed the party, holding off Rory McIlroy and outclassing Rickie Fowler while winning his first major championship.

Clark, 29, finished the tournament at 10-under, one stroke ahead of McIlroy and five strokes ahead of Fowler. He held on despite making bogey at holes No. 15 and No. 16 and watching a a three-stroke lead over McIlroy get whittled to one shot.

He held on for victory thanks to pars at No. 17 and No. 18 for an even-par 70 in the final round.

As the war in Russia and Ukraine raged in 2022 and 2023, the demand for defense systems and machinery skyrocketed. In December, Raytheon Technologies’ defense subsidiary won a $1.2 billion contract from the U.S. Army to supply six of its air defense systems to Ukraine. Such demand over the past year helped the Arlington, Virginia-based parent rake in almost $68.6 billion in sales and $5.5 billion in profit in 2022, helping it secure the 79th position of the Forbes Global 2000 list, a ranking of the largest public companies worldwide, and become the only aerospace business in the top 100.

With air travel returning to pre-pandemic levels, aircraft manufacturer Boeing (No. 427) remains firmly on the list. Delta Air Lines (No. 342) is the top airline company with almost $54 billion in sales and $1.8 billion in profit. The Atlanta-based company has about 95,000 employees catering to passengers’ travel demands. United Airlines (No. 397) and American Airlines (No. 536) have also moved up by more than 200 spots with robust demand from work and leisure travelers.

Of the 25 aerospace and defense companies on the Forbes Global 2000 list, 19 have moved up in rank, including four which are new to the rankings.

It has been predicted that artificial intelligence will revolutionize computer programming, enable widespread cheating among college students and possibly even destroy the human race. For now, AI chatbots are still learning the art of taking orders for burgers and fries.⁠
⁠
At White Castle, Julia is among a freshman class of artificial-intelligence enabled chatbots being put to work in fast-food drive-throughs. Restaurant executives say Julia, as White Castle’s system is called, and its chatbot colleagues can make their restaurants more efficient and free up often-scarce workers to do other jobs. The jury is still out with customers.⁠
⁠
Across 10 orders at an Indiana White Castle on a recent day, three customers asked to talk to a human attendant after conversing with Julia, either because they preferred human interaction or because Julia misheard orders. One woman was peeved that her jalapeño slider order hadn’t come out correctly. Others shouted repeatedly that they accepted the terms and conditions of ordering through a robot, though they otherwise ordered without incident.⁠
⁠
Besides White Castle, McDonald’s, Wendy’s and Dunkin’ are all testing AI-driven chatbots in drive-throughs. The bots “talk” through drive-through speakers, with the order tally popping up on a screen for customers to review. Workers on headsets listen in, ready to intervene if things go awry.⁠
⁠
The robots, which employ conversational-style AI algorithms used by technologies such as OpenAI’s ChatGPT, can take burger orders, substitute cheddar for American cheese and thank customers for their patronage. They also are programmed to encourage customers to binge on an extra burger or a dessert. Unlike a human, chatbots are never shy about selling more, nor do they need a break or get distracted by other business, said Michael Guinan, White Castle’s vice president of operations services.⁠

oday, the United States observes Juneteenth to commemorate the end of slavery, a painful chapter in the nation’s history whose legacy continues to reverberate.

Juneteenth — a combination of the words “June” and “nineteenth” — has been celebrated for decades by Black communities as Emancipation Day, but the recent broader reckoning over racial injustices and deepening political polarization has thrust the day further into national and cultural prominence.

Australian legend and wife Kirsten Kutner are being sued in a civil lawsuit alleging a teen girl was sexually assaulted during a pool party at their home.⁠
⁠
The couple is accused of "contributing to the delinquency of a minor" after alcohol was allegedly provided at the party hosted by Norman's stepdaughter, identified in the suit as "K.K.", in September 2021.⁠
⁠
The lawsuit alleges the high school student, identified as Jane Doe, "was incapable of standing on her own and was seen stumbling around the party".⁠
⁠
"Defendants breached their duty of care by not safeguarding or preventing injury to Jane Doe's health and wellbeing, including, but not limited to, abusive conduct by other minor invitees resultant in part from the provision of alcoholic beverages to the minor invitees," the complaint said.⁠
