The only way forward was to have ‘Killed the Cowboy’

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Ahead of his sixth studio album, “Killed the Cowboy,” Dustin Lynch sensed some inner conflict. The 38-year-old country star had achieved many of his goals: He spent the last decade securing country radio hits, raking in billions of streams and touring with the likes of Luke Bryan, Florida Georgia Line, Brad Paisley and Kane Brown. He was inducted into the Grand Olde Opry by Reba McEntire. After all that, the question became, what next? “I’m single, you know, at this point in my life, I’ve chased down a lot of dreams. But what’s the next level to unlock? You know, in my life, where do I want to be in five, 10, 20, 30 years?” he told The Associated Press. “Is that with somebody? Is it still being free and enjoying the adventure? So, there’s this ongoing battle that I have with myself daily (of) what’s the best version of me.”The album’s title, and the title track, stemmed from that idea. Does he kill the cowboy, or let him ride? If there is a narrative thread ...ANÁLISIS | Detienen al presidente de Evergrande, que fue la segunda mayor inmobiliaria de China.

(CNN) — Después de incumplir su deuda hace dos años, el promotor inmobiliario chino Evergrande debía ser reestructurado y permitirle recuperarse. Pero ese plan ahora parece estar en peligro, después de que la policía detuvo al presidente de la compañía y a personal de una filial financiera.Xu Jiayin, también conocido como Hui Ka Yan en cantonés, ha sido sujeto a “medidas obligatorias” por sospecha de delitos, dijo Evergrande este jueves en una presentación a la bolsa de valores de Hong Kong.La empresa no dio más detalles sobre la ubicación de Xu ni la naturaleza de los presuntos delitos. Según el sistema legal chino, las medidas “obligatorias” pueden incluir la detención y el arresto formal.Xu fundó Evergrande en 1996. Su detención suma a la incertidumbre sobre el futuro del asediado gigante inmobiliario, que esperaba finalizar un enorme plan de reestructuración de deuda supervisado por el gobierno en las próximas semanas para evitar el colapso.Evergrande, que todavía tiene US...Live updates | Matt Fitzpatrick is on a tear at the Ryder Cup in a bid to end his losing streak

GUIDONIA MONTECELIO, Italy (AP) — Matt Fitzpatrick seems intent on ending his losing streak at the Ryder Cup.The former U.S. Open champion poured in putts totaling 60 feet to help him and Rory McIlroy build a 4-up lead after five holes against Collin Morikawa and Xander Schauffele, then hit an approach to 4 feet to win another hole at No. 6.McIlroy was reduced to a spectator’s role by that point — he simply laughed and applauded Fitzpatrick after his partner’s 12-foot putt for eagle dropped at No. 5 — but helped out by making birdie at the seventh hole to put the Europeans 6 up.Fitzpatrick has lost all of his previous five matches at a Ryder Cup, in 2016 and 2021 when Europe was the visiting team. This is his first time playing fourballs.The other three fourballs were much closer.Max Homa and Wyndham Clark were the guys most likely to put a point on the board for the U.S. team after going 2 up against Robert MacIntyre and Justin Rose after nine holes.___Mark this down: T...DC-area credit unions planning shutdown relief programs for government workers

Wonder Group is buying meal kit company Blue Apron for about $103 million as the company looks to enhance its offerings.Wonder Group, which was founded by e-commerce mogul Marc Lore, began with vans that would deliver meals to residences, making the final preparations curbside. But the company faced push back from some residents concerned about the environmental impact of the idling vans and also dealt with cost concerns. It has since started opening some stores, moving away from the van delivery service. Blue Apron has built itself into a known name in the meal kit sector, but it’s faced increased competition over the years from other meal kit businesses, like Hello Fresh, as well as restaurant and grocery delivery services and at home chefs. In 2019, two years after its initial public offering, the New York-based company was faced with a potential delisting from the New York Stock Exchange because of its faltering stock price.

MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) — A Tennessee judge said Friday she is ending a conservatorship agreement between former NFL player Michael Oher and a Memphis couple who took him in when he was in high school.Shelby County Probate Court Judge Kathleen Gomes said she is terminating the agreement reached in 2004 that allowed Sean and Leigh Anne Tuohy to control Oher’s finances. Oher signed the agreement when he was 18 and living with the couple as he was being recruited by colleges as a star high school football player.Gomes said she was not dismissing the case. Oher has asked that the Tuohys provide a financial accounting of money that may have come to them as part of the agreement, claiming that they used his name, image and likeness to enrich themselves and lied to him that the agreement meant the Tuohys were adopting him.Gomes said she was disturbed that such an agreement was ever reached. She said she had never seen in her 43-year career a conservatorship agreement reached with someone who w...New York City in state of emergency as torrential rain floods subways, roads and basements
