Strong Group survives Malaysia to remain perfect in Jones Cup

The Strong Group Athletics survived Malaysia, 106-98, to remain perfect in six games in the Jones Cup in Taiwan on Friday. After taking a 87-64 lead by the end of the third, Malaysia made a 20-10 run to cut its deficit with five minutes to play in the fourth period. The Philippine representative, however, held off the Malaysians to claim the victory. 'It was not the best game for us defensively, but we got the job done,' said head coach Charles Tiu. 'We were also able to rest Dre [Roberson] and Tajuan [Agee], which is crucial. Now all focus for us is our game tomorrow against Bahrain — our championship game.' The game against Bahrain will serve as a championship game as it also holds a 6-0 record like Strong Group. The team with the best record by the end of the tournament will be hailed as champions. DJ Fenner led the Strong Group with 20 points, eight boards, and four assists, while Ange Kouame and Geo Chiu registered double-double performances with the former having 11 points and 10 boards, while the latter had 12 points and 10 rebounds, as well. NCAA MVP Allen Liwag, meanwhile, had 16 points and Kiefer Ravena had 17 points. The Strong Group will play Bahrain on Saturday at 3 p.m. —JKC, GMA Integrated News

Review – Mr. Terrific: Year One #2

Mr. Terrific: Year One #2 cover, via DC Comics. Ray: When we picked up with Michael Holt last issue, he was a man at his wit's end. After losing his wife and unborn child in a freak car accident, he had spiraled – and not even his best friend Dre was able to pull him out of it. Michael didn't agree to help when Dre wanted support in taking on a corrupt corporate executive that was taking Michael and Paula's old invention and using it to take over the city's power grid – turning it toxic in the process. So Dre joined up with a mysterious associate to stage a break-in – and while Michael did snap out of it enough to help him after the heist, it was too late, and Dre was killed in the process. A heavy way to kick things off, and enough to take away what little hope Michael has left. As the issue starts, he's ready to give up and takes a long climb up to a tall bridge. And that's when God intervenes – in the form of a towering, green Spirit of Vengeance in a menacing cloak. Reconnaissance. Via DC Comics. I was always wondering about what the connection between Michael Holt and Terry Sloane was, as Michael's motivations and MO were completely different. But the introduction of Jim Corrigan to Michael's origin story ties things together really well. I've liked all the Spectres – Hal Jordan and Crispus Allen both had excellent solo stories over the years – but there's something special about Corrigan. He always had the perfect mix of menace for those who deserved it and kindness for those who need it. There's a great look into Michael's past that explains why he's so haunted by Paula's death – while he wasn't responsible in any way, there was something deeply unresolved between them. And there's also a great reveal about who Dre's collaborator was – and who our villain is actually working for. It all works nicely to set up Michael's journey from everyman scientist to genius superhero. To find reviews of all the DC issues, visit DC This Week. GeekDad received this comic for review purposes.

Red Lobster Adds 10 New Items to Summer Menu

Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Seafood chain Red Lobster is hoping to hook new customers to its restaurants this summer, as the embattled company works toward financial recovery. The brand announced its menu will feature new dishes and cocktails as it launched its "Crabfest" promotion on Monday. A Red Lobster restaurant pictured in May 2024, in Fremont, California. A Red Lobster restaurant pictured in May 2024, in Fremont, It Matters Shockwaves rippled through the catering industry and beyond when Red Lobster, founded back in 1968, filed for chapter 11 bankruptcy in May last year and went on to close more than 100 stores. Chapter 11 is often referred to as a "reorganization bankruptcy" and means that creditors usually suspend attempts to collect debts, while the debtor remains in possession of the business and can continue to run it. It is usually offered when businesses have large debts but also earn a sizable income. Analysts suggested the blame for Red Lobster's troubles lay with poor management decisions, such as all-you-can-eat deals offered even as the price of shrimp soared. Restaurant bosses were also forced to contend with high inflation pushing up wholesale costs, with rising prices also forcing many diners to eat at home to save money. But this month, Red Lobster's new 36-year-old CEO Damola Adamolekun, who was appointed last August to affect a turnaround, told the LA Times that customer feedback was already improving amid his push for improved hospitality, remodeled venues, and a revamped menu. He also hopes sport sponsorship deals and TV ads will raise the chain's profile. The businessman previously led a revival of fortunes at Asian-fusion chain P.F. Chang's. What To Know Crabfest is an annual promotion run by Red Lobster, and new dishes have been added to this year's event. Seafood boils now feature on the special Crabfest menu for the first time, meaning guests can order a huge bag filled with seafood and vegetables coated with sauce or seasoning. In addition to what Red Lobster describes as "fan favorite" dishes, there are seven new food items on the Crabfest menu: Mariner's Boil (lobster tail, shrimp, snow crab legs, corn, and red potatoes), Sailor's Boil (shrimp, smoked sausage, corn, and red potatoes), Crabby Stuffed Mushrooms, Crab-Topped Asparagus, Crab-Topped Potato, Steak Oscar (with a creamy sauce), and Salmon Oscar. In addition to the new dishes, three new cocktails will also be added to the menu: Purple Haze by Dre & Snoop (using gin created by the rap stars and lemonade), Passion Star Spritz (vodka and passionfruit), and Starry Eyed Surprise (tequila-based). What People Are Saying Nichole Robillard, chief marketing officer at Red Lobster, said: "Red Lobster's Crabfest is the ultimate summer dining experience, featuring exciting and flavorful dishes like our new Seafood Boils. Whether you're a longtime Red Lobster lover or participating in Crabfest for the first time, we've got something to bring everyone joy." What Happens Next Red Lobster executives and the restaurant chain's fans will be hoping the brand can do enough to win back former customers and entice new ones, as the CEO fights to turn around the business.
