Sports The Buss family has agreed to sell the controlling stake of the Los Angeles Lakers to Mark Walter, CEO of TWG Global, with the franchise valued at $10 billion. Jeanie Buss will remain as governor, continuing her family's long-standing association with the team, which began when her father acquired the Lakers in 1979. This deal marks the highest valuation for a professional sports franchise, highlighting the immense value and global brand appeal of the Lakers. Walter, who already owns stakes in several sports franchises including the Los Angeles Dodgers and Chelsea FC, is expected to bring his expertise to further elevate the Lakers. While specific details of the stake acquired by Walter have not been disclosed, this move signifies a major shift in the ownership landscape of one of the NBA's most storied teams. Key Takeaway

Agriculture Researchers and farmers in Pennsylvania are exploring new markets for switchgrass, a versatile crop with applications such as soil erosion prevention and animal bedding. Despite its benefits, switchgrass is not widely grown due to the lack of established markets and buyers. Initiatives led by Northeast Sustainable Agriculture Research and Education (SARE) aim to change this by developing faster-growing strains and providing grants to farmers. Switchgrass offers numerous advantages, including its ability to grow on rocky, untillable soil and its low fertilizer requirements. However, the crop takes years to mature, and finding buyers remains a challenge. Efforts continue to establish viable markets and explore new uses for switchgrass, which could position it as a sustainable alternative to traditional crops. Key Takeaway

Energy Oklahoma is positioning itself as a hub for critical minerals processing in the United States, with facilities focused on refining nickel and lithium, among other minerals. Despite challenges such as a lack of major mineral deposits and a weak education system, the state offers strategic advantages like a skilled workforce, financial incentives, and a central location with access to transportation networks. Investors are drawn to Oklahoma's streamlined regulatory process and the state's commitment to supporting new industries. The development of these facilities is crucial for reducing U.S. dependence on Chinese mineral supplies, particularly for sectors like battery production and renewable energy. As the demand for critical minerals grows, Oklahoma's efforts could significantly impact the U.S. economy and energy transition. Key Takeaway
