Quick Glance: Talks Cease on Bringing Capitals and Wizards to Virginia
  • Negotiations to lure the NHL's Washington Capitals and the NBA's Washington Wizards to Northern Virginia have officially ended, as the proposal to create a development district with a new arena for the teams will not move forward, as announced by the city of Alexandria on Wednesday.

  • Virginia's House speaker also confirmed that Ted Leonsis, majority owner of the teams, is no longer considering relocating them from the District of Columbia.

  • The city expressed disappointment in the outcome, emphasizing that they negotiated a framework for this opportunity in good faith and participated in the process in Richmond to preserve their integrity.

  • Governor Youngkin and Leonsis announced in December at a public event that they had reached an understanding on the outlines of a plan calling for a new $2 billion development district with a new arena in Alexandria, just a few miles from where the teams currently play.

  • Assange will remain in London's Belmarsh Prison as the legal battle continues.

  • Judges emphasized the need for Assange to receive the same protections as a U.S. citizen and to be spared from the death penalty.

  • The U.S. Justice Department declined to comment, while Assange's supporters argue for his rights as a journalist under the First Amendment.

Quick Glance: Kenny Brooks' Virginia Tech Exit and Its Impact on Kentucky
  • Two days after fourth-seeded Virginia Tech was upset in the second round of the women's NCAA tournament, Kenny Brooks has stepped down to take over as head coach of the Kentucky Wildcats.

  • Brooks boasts an impressive career record as a Division I head coach with a .717 winning percentage in 22 seasons. He replaces Kyra Elzy in Lexington after she was let go due to consecutive losing seasons.

  • Brooks brings a successful tenure at Virginia Tech, where he led the team to a Final Four appearance and led the ACC in offensive efficiency and effective field goal percentage. In contrast, Kentucky ranked last in both categories this past season.

  • Brooks' departure signifies a time of transition for Virginia Tech, as the team was already facing changes with key players potentially leaving. The Hokies now need to find a new coach who can continue the success under Brooks, while the ACC navigates a period of uncertainty.
