After fighting for equal pay for a very long time the U.S. Women’s soccer team reached a milestone moment today. U.S. Soccer announced that men’s and women’s national teams will now receive equal pay. A truly historic moment. The big piece of the deal, which runs through 2028, is the prize money during the World Cup. Teams get paid bonus based on how far the advance in the tournament. The Men’s national team always received a high bonus rate. They will be equal now.
To be honest the women’s team has kind of been much better than the men as of late… maybe the women should even get more pay! Ha ha
All joking aside, this is a great moment for the future of women’s sports.

That’s what students from the Capital Preparatory School in Bridgeport got to do last Sunday night at the Billboard Music Awards. Sean “Diddy” Combs who was hosting the BMAs in Vegas brought up students from Capital Prep’s three campus in Harlem, The Bronx, and Bridgeport just before he brought out Ed Sheeran. Diddy said it was important to him to give back to the community where he grew up in New York. What a fun way to give back too! Congrats to these kids.
You probably use it every single day. To pair your phone, speaker, laptop, headphones. Bluetooth is such a big part of our lives now. But where did the name come from?
It all goes back to the 10th century when King Harald “Bluetooth” Gormsson was well known for uniting different parts of Denmark. Hence the reason it’s use to talk about “uniting” devices together nowadays with technology. He got the nickname “Bluetooth” came about because he had a dead tooth which was a blue/grey color.
