Published Mon, 23 Dec 2024 17:51:53 GMT

(CNN) — To quote one of my favorite DJ Khaled songs, “All I do is win, win, win no matter what.”In all honesty, I don’t stay winning. I have, however, been on a pretty good streak lately, like when I recently had the opportunity to speak with one of the legendary heavyweight champions of the world. Depending upon your age, you either know George Foreman for his prowess in the boxing ring or his famed kitchen grills.Either way, the now 74-year-old Olympic gold medalist and two-time world heavyweight champion is sharing more about his life in the new biopic, “Big George Foreman: The Miraculous Story of the Once and Future Heavyweight Champion of the World.”The film details how Foreman rose from poverty to become a superstar boxer — a rival to Muhammad Ali — as well as a minister and an entrepreneur, and later in life, how he made his return to the ring when many didn’t think he had it in him.Foreman told me he wasn’t always c...

French democracy is in crisis. What else is new?

Published Mon, 23 Dec 2024 17:51:53 GMT

Revolution is in the air.  After three months of turmoil over President Emmanuel Macron’s flagship pensions reform, France is tempted once again to rip up its constitution and start afresh.Will 2023 go down — after 1789, 1830, 1848, 1870, 1940 and 1958 — as the year which forced radical change in the method of government of perhaps the least-governable large country in the Western world?Reputable French historians and political commentators are talking of a “democratic crisis” or a “crise de régime.” The pensions dispute has, they say, transcended arguments over whether the French should retire at 62 or 64. The French president’s deployment of a full armory of special constitutional powers to impose a reform rejected by 70 percent of French adults has created — or accelerated — a deeper, political malaise.In the age of the internet and contempt for les élites, the top-down, elected monarchy devised by Charles de Gaulle 65 years ago is no longer workable, the commenta...

A Vermont man accused of getting into a shootout with police leading to a multi-day manhunt is now in custody and facing charges. Henry Lovell, 24, pleaded not guilty Monday to 14 charges, including attempted murder.Lovell allegedly shot a Morristown police officer at an apartment last week as police responded to a reported kidnapping. The incident led to a three-day search for the suspect. “There was a kidnapping. He held a gun to his mother and to his landlord. He engaged law enforcement in in battle with his shotgun,” said Deputy State’s Attorney Aliena Gerhard. “A public tip was the reason Lovell was located,” said Morristown Police Chief Jason Luneau. “We are not alone in our endeavors and understand we cannot complete our mission without the community’s assistance.”The next step for Lovell is a psychiatric evaluation. He is currently being held without bail. The officer who was shot has been released from the hospital.

Dave Hyde: ‘The Big One’ era continues as Jimmy Butler makes history in Heat’s win

Published Mon, 23 Dec 2024 17:51:53 GMT

Here’s the thing about history: It’s hard to see coming. Monday night’s drama began, undramatically enough, with Jimmy Butler making a pedestrian 20-foot shot with just over five minutes left in a troubled game.“Frustrating,’ Miami Heat coach Erik Spoelstra called Game 4 against Milwaukee to that point. “Things weren’t going our way.”No one considered Butler’s shot was the start of anything, much less the start of something unbelievable that would put the Heat up 3-1 this series.How could they? That shot merely brought the Miami merely brought within what seemed like a constant eight-point cushion for Milwaukee.
