That's especially true since the defanging of the Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act, 1992 (PASPA), a nationwide prohibition on sports betting (with a few exceptions), which the US Supreme Court determined in 2018 to be unconstitutional. Recent indictments against players in leagues like MLB and the NBA, accusing them of manipulating games or pitching patterns to profit from bets, have raised major integrity concerns.

Meanwhile, some lawmakers argue the patchwork of state rules is too inconsistent to manage a national industry. Some of the issues that are causes for concern include aggressive marketing and increased gambling addiction, especially in young men. Despite sports betting traditionally…...

1+ min ago (145+ words) For more than 20 years, Mo Xiao has dedicated herself to bird care at the Beijing Zoo by learning the unique habits, diets, and temperaments of each species. In the case of Huahua, the wreathed hornbill, Mo developed a method that uses step-by-step training and heart-rate monitoring to assess the animal's condition, helping it become a top performer in health checks.

After three years of adjusting nesting materials to mimic natural habitats, she also helped toucans successfully breed in spring and autumn. "For me, every bird is a unique life," Mo said. "Raising them isn't just about keeping them alive; it's about protecting their nature with respect and professionalism." Liu Xueru contributed to this…...
