Analysts Explain Why as PEPENODE Is a Smart Buy

As a crypto writer, Bogdan’s responsibilities are split between researching and writing articles and entertaining the team with his humor bordering on the politically incorrect, an aspiring Bill Burr, if you will. Thanks to his 12+ years of writing experience in just as many fields, including tech, cybersecurity, modelling, fitness, crypto, and other topics-that-shall-not-be-named, he’s become a genuine asset to the team. While his position as a senior writer at PrivacyAffairs thought him valuable lessons about the power of self-management, his entire writing career was and is an exercise in self-improvement. Now, he’s ready to sink his teeth into crypto and teach people how to take control of their own money on the blockchain. With fiat as an eternally devaluing currency, Bitcoin and altcoins seem like the best-fitting alternative for Bogdan. Bogdan’s biggest professional accomplishment, aside from securing a position as a main writer for Bitcoinist, was his 5-year run as a writing manager at Blackwood Productions, where he coordinated a team of four writers. During that time, he learned the value of teamwork and that of creating a working environment that breeds efficiency, positivity, and friendship.

NFL insider spells doom for Bills’ coaches amid questions around Sean McDermott’s future

Peter Schrager said turbulence is on the horizon for the Buffalo Bills’ coaching staff, but he doesn’t expect coach Sean McDermott to be on the chopping block. Ad Schrager, an analyst for NFL Network, discussed the Bills’ situation during an appearance on “UNSPORTSMANLIKE Radio” on Friday after Buffalo’s 23-19 loss to Houston. Thanks for the submission! “I think Sean McDermott, I would imagine it gets more than just one year if like this thing falls off a cliff right now. And if anything, I would think that he and Brandon [Beane] being together have a long relationship going back to their Carolina days that he’s not gonna be the fall guy. I would think it might be one of the coordinators or there might be changes with personnel,” Schrager said.

We asked @PSchrags | @ChrisCanty99 Ad Looking to predict NFL playoff Scenarios? Try our NFL Playoff Predictor for real-time simulations and stay ahead of the game! Sean McDermott has led the Bills since 2017, guiding them to multiple playoff runs. But with a 7-4 record and an offense struggling to find rhythm, criticism has intensified. Concerns over offensive identity and missing playmakers escalate pressure for Sean McDermott Peter Schrager highlighted a broader issue plaguing Buffalo’s playoff push: a lack of reliable receiving threats outside of running back James Cook. Ad “I think the truth of the matter is who’s gonna beat anybody on the outside for the Buffalo Bills . That was a problem against the Patriots that day where they lost, there’s a problem against the Falcons when they lost that game and it was a problem last night and Gabe Davis makes a great catch steps outta bounds and it’s like that was our opportunity,” Schrager said. Ad “The truth of the matter is they’re not scared of anybody on the wide receiver group and outside of James Cook, there’s no one that keeps you up at night. So it’s all on Josh. They have to make some changes. They have to be able to, you know, offer more than that, but I wouldn’t imagine Sean McDermott is gonna be in danger of losing his job.” Ad Josh Allen was caught on broadcast cameras shouting at the sideline after a stalled fourth-and-one attempt and later slammed his helmet while speaking with backup Mitch Trubisky. The quarterback finished the game without a passing touchdown, was intercepted twice and sacked a career-high eight times. Afterward, Allen expressed dissatisfaction with the late play-call sequence, saying the team should have taken a timeout to avoid confusion. McDermott backed offensive coordinator Joe Brady in his postgame media session, calling him a strong leader and insisting the offensive staff remains aligned. He also stressed the need to better protect Josh Allen, noting the 12 hits absorbed in the loss as unsustainable. × Feedback Why did you not like this content?

Christian Adams: The Low-Profile Beckham Sibling Who Lives Completely Off-Radar

A newly circulated family photograph has reignited curiosity about Christian Adams, Victoria Beckham’s notoriously private younger brother. Shared online in late November after a discreet family gathering, the image quickly caught fans’ attention because Christian is seldom seen in public. While the Beckham name dominates global headlines, the youngest Adams sibling has spent decades living far from the spotlight, maintaining a lifestyle that contrasts sharply with the fame surrounding his designer and former Spice Girl sister. A Family Member Who Shuns the Spotlight Unlike Victoria Beckham, whose career has spanned global success in music, fashion and media, Christian Adams has kept out of the public eye for most of his life. He rarely appears in family photographs and ‘shuns the limelight,’ maintaining a life far removed from the celebrity sphere surrounding Victoria and David Beckham. It shows Christian at a private family gathering, one of the few public images of him in recent years. His reappearance immediately sparked curiosity because he is rarely seen at public events linked to the Beckham family. Christian Adams is one of Victoria Beckham’s younger siblings, raised with her and their sister Louise in Goffs Oak, Hertfordshire. While Victoria went on to global fame through the Spice Girls, Christian has remained largely out of the spotlight and maintains a notably private life, with little public information about his career or day-to-day activities. Life Far Removed from Celebrity Culture Public information about Christian remains extremely limited. As the Daily Mail emphasises, he prefers privacy and does not attend high-profile events associated with his famous relatives. His rare appearance in the recent photo highlighted the contrast between Victoria’s global profile and his low-key existence. The Adams siblings are believed to remain close, although Christian stays mostly out of the media attention surrounding the Beckham brand. His absence from public view continues to stand out, especially as the Beckham family remains one of Britain’s most photographed and publicly followed households. A Rare Appearance Sparks Renewed Curiosity The newly shared image reignited public interest simply because Christian is seldom seen. Commenters noted how unusual it is for him to appear in family photos posted online, underscoring how private he has kept his life over the decades. As of now, Christian Adams has not commented publicly on the renewed attention. According to the Daily Mail, his latest appearance serves as a reminder that not all members of high-profile families seek or welcome the spotlight. Why Christian’s Privacy Stands Out In an era where celebrity families often live under constant media surveillance, Christian Adams represents a rare exception: a relative who has managed to preserve both anonymity and autonomy. His quiet lifestyle serves as a reminder that public fame does not define every member of a high-profile family. While Victoria Beckham continues to shape global fashion and culture, her younger brother has carved out a life of calm distance, and his brief re-emergence in a family photograph only deepens the intrigue surrounding one of the Beckham clan’s most private figures.

Givner takes over as Rock downs Wheeling

Slippery Rock men’s basketball took on Wheeling University on Wednesday for their third home game of the season. Coming out of the gate strong, Elijah Hill put up three points in the first two minutes of the first half for the White and Green. The Cardinals tried to come back with a three-pointer of their own but failed. A rebound and a layup came after that, all of which came up empty. The Rock took the rebound, bringing it back to their side of the court for a jumper, claiming the lead 5-0. Wheeling finally put points on the board with a three-pointer delivered by Ayden Goll. Both teams took turns throwing up shots, but Issac James succeeded with a layup for The Rock. After a number of turnovers and the Cardinals attempting to even the score, a steal from RJ Sledge allowed Ike Herster to put up two points in favor of Slippery Rock. Just a few seconds later, another steal from Sledge opened up the court for Herster to deliver another layup. Sledge, a freshman, achieved a season-high of three steals throughout the night. He was also SRU’s fourth-leading scorer, tallying nine points for himself. After the Cardinals added a three-pointer to their total in a chance to catch up, freshman Dame Givner took to the court again. Just over a minute later, Givner added two points, increasing The Rock’s lead to 13-6. Givner led the charge with the most points scored, tallying 24 in his 32 minutes of game time. The freshman reached multiple season-highs, including points made, minutes played and field goal attempts. “He has some strong explosive moves, some strong takes to the basket,” head coach Ian Grady said. Givner was not the only freshman to gain confidence with the team. Hill and Brady Mayo started for The Rock along with Givner. The three freshmen tallied 37 points throughout the game. “I thought the effort was there. They got good playing experience, and they played a lot in the first two games, too,” Grady said. The White and Green put 23 more shots up before heading into the locker room. The team came into the second half just as explosive as the first, with Herster delivering a layup in the first minute. The graduate student has put up 43 points in the season so far and ranks 12th in SRU history for three-pointers made. Slippery Rock and Wheeling took turns adding points to the board, with the Cardinals still in a 14-point deficit. The Rock went on a seven-point run, only letting Wheeling have one three-pointer. With over 12 minutes left, a dunk from Givner ignited the crowd. “I think when we’ve got energy in the stands, and we’ve got a lot of people in the student section, it’s a game changer for us,” Grady said. The Cardinals kept a close game, never falling further than 20 points behind. Their efforts were no match for Slippery Rock. In the minutes after the dunk, the White and Green put up 24 points behind 11 free throws, four layups, four jumpers, a three-pointer and another dunk. Slippery Rock secured the win 82-71. With a strong start to their season, Grady is focused on keeping that momentum going. “We’ve been playing hard, and we’ve had some great efforts,” Grady said. “But we need to stay grounded. We have to continue to improve and approach everything with an open mind.” Following the wins, Grady has surpassed his 100-game wins since being with The Rock. “The reason you have success and coaches have success is because of the players that you bring into the program,” he said. After finishing their home stand undefeated, Slippery Rock hits the road to take on Fairmont State University this Saturday.

Driver With Prior DUIs Charged With Fatally Striking Teen Walking to School

A California man with two DUI convictions has been charged with murder in a hit-and-run crash that killed a 13-year-old boy as he walked to school, authorities said. Bradley Gene Funk, 59, who was on probation for a 2021 DUI conviction, allegedly struck a curb early Tuesday in Dana Point and plowed into Luis Adrian Morales-Pacheco as the boy headed to Niguel Hills Middle School with his older brother, according to the Orange County District Attorney’s Office. Funk, of Dana Point, allegedly fled the scene after striking the teen, whose brother was not injured. He was arrested a few miles away after his white GMC pickup lost a tire and witnesses helped deputies track him down, the Orange County Sheriff’s Department said. Luis, of San Juan Capistrano, suffered serious injuries in the collision and died at a hospital. “The death of a child leaves a hole in the heart of our entire community,” Orange County District Attorney Todd Spitzer said in a statement Thursday. “Luis did not have to die and the driver who killed him was told over and over again of the lives he would be risking if he got behind the wheel intoxicated, and he did it anyway. And now Luis’ family is forced to live without their little boy whose smile could light up a room-all because a stranger made a selfish decision and Luis and his entire family paid the ultimate price.” Funk, who pleaded guilty to DUI in two separate cases, was charged Thursday with second-degree murder and hit-and-run with permanent and serious injury. He remains in custody as of early Friday, jail records show. In California, motorists convicted of DUI are required to receive a Watson advisement-informing them they could face a murder charge if they kill someone while driving under the influence. Funk received that instruction in both of his cases, Spitzer said. Funk, who was taken into custody on suspicion of DUI, murder and hit-and-run, was on probation in connection with his prior convictions, sheriff officials said. Funk had been convicted in DUI cases in November 2020 and January 2021, according to court records cited by the Los Angeles Times. In July 2020, Funk was booked on suspicion of DUI in two separate incidents within three days after hitting two cars near Capistrano Union High School before fleeing. He later pleaded guilty to misdemeanor hit-and-run with property damage and DUI in one incident and DUI in the second, the Times reported. Funk was sentenced to five years’ probation, including a stipulation that he couldn’t drive a vehicle with alcohol in his system. His license was suspended in July 2021 and reinstated in February 2023, DMV records cited by the newspaper show. Funk remains held without bail ahead of his arraignment scheduled for December 10. His court-appointed attorney, Joel Garson, said he didn’t have enough evidence Thursday to seek bail in the case, KTTV reported. An online fundraiser for Luis’ family had eclipsed $59,000 as of early Friday. “Luis Adrian was a bright light in the world known for his smile,” the GoFundMe listing reads. “He was generous, he loved to protect younger kids, he also loved his family and God with all his heart. He was always happy, loving and hungry.” Classmates of the charismatic sixth-grader are also struggling to process Tuesday’s deadly crash, KABC reported. “He was a very kindhearted person,” classmate Harper Waters told the station. “He didn’t make just me, but he made a lot of kids smile. I’d walk into that class with such a bad attitude, and I’d come out with a smile because of him.”.
