As members of the St. Thomas community prepare for the football team to face St. John’s at Allianz Field Saturday, Neighborhood Relations Director Amy Gage has 44 dozen bagels and a goal in mind: help students host responsible gatherings before the game.

Last year, Gage delivered bagels and water to nine party buses en route to the rivalry game at St. John’s. With this year’s game down the road from St. Thomas, Gage will deliver to about 30 registered houses Saturday morning and bike around the neighborhood throughout the day to help keep things under control.
Kick-off for Tommie-Johnnie will begin Saturday at 1:10. Check tommiemedia.com for live coverage of the sold-out game.

The world’s first female spacewalking team made history Friday, floating out of the International Space Station to fix a broken part of the power network. As NASA astronauts Christina Koch and Jessica Meir emerged one by one, it marked the first time in a half-century of spacewalking that a woman-only team floated outside the International Space Station.

NASA leaders, along with women and others around the world, cheered Koch and Meir on, hoping that female spacewalking will become more common in the future.

The Kurdish-led administration in northern Syria accused Turkey on Friday of violating a U.S.-brokered cease-fire that went into effect overnight, as fighters from both sides clashed in and around a border town that has been one of the fiercest fronts in the Turkish invasion.

The town of Ras al-Ayn was emerging as an immediate test for the five-day cease-fire agreed on by Washington D.C. and Ankara. Before the deal’s announcement, Turkish-backed forces had encircled the town and were battling fierce resistance from Kurdish fighters inside.
