Quick Glance: Akebono Taro: Sumo Icon Passes Away from Heart Failure

Japan mourns Akebono Taro, the first non-Japanese Sumo Grand Champion, who passed away at the age of 54 from heart failure. His story was immortalized in songs.

Born as Chad Rowan in Hawaii, Akebono rose to become one of the most successful sumo wrestlers in the 90s and was appointed as the 64th Yokozuna in 1993. After his active career, he pursued K-1 and wrestling.

The US Ambassador to Japan and the late musician Israel Kamakawiwoʻole honored Akebono as a giant in sumo and a bridge between the US and Japan. His legacy as a sumo icon lives on.

Israel Kamakawiwoʻole had sung about Akebono and other Hawaiian sumo wrestlers in his song 'Tengoku Kara Kaminari,' celebrating them as champions and heroes for all ages. Akebono leaves behind his wife, daughter, and two sons.

Quick Glance: Last Survivor of USS Arizona from Pearl Harbor Attack Passes Away

The final surviving member of the USS Arizona battleship that was destroyed during the Japanese assault on Pearl Harbor has passed away. Lou Conter had reached the age of 102.

Conter passed away in his residence in Grass Valley, California as a result of congestive heart failure, as confirmed by his daughter, Louann Daley.

In the attack of 1941 that propelled the United States into World War II, a total of 1,177 sailors and Marines lost their lives. Conter, who served as a quartermaster, was stationed on the main deck of the Arizona when Japanese aircraft flew above him on December 7 at 7:55 a.m.

A bomb managed to pierce through the steel decks of the battleship 13 minutes into the assault, igniting more than 1 million pounds of gunpowder stored beneath it, causing the ship to be raised out of the water.

Quick Glance: Women's NCAA Title Game Shines with Record Viewership

South Carolina’s victory of 87-75 over Caitlin Clark and Iowa in the women’s NCAA championship game marks a historic moment. For the first time, the women's game surpassed the men's title game, achieving the second-highest viewership for a non-Olympic women's sporting event on U.S. television.

The viewership for the Sunday afternoon game, which awarded the Gamecocks their fourth national title and denied Clark's Hawkeyes their first, peaked at 24.1 million during the final 15 minutes. Nielsen's figures include an estimate of individuals watching outside their homes, a metric not previously accounted for before 2020.

The audience for the national title game increased by 90% compared to the previous year when Clark and Iowa faced off against LSU. Moreover, this was the inaugural occurrence since 1995 of the championship being broadcast on network television.

During the Final Four, Clark emphasized the positive impact of audience growth on all women's sports, not solely basketball. Fox broadcasted 14 women's games this season, including three in prime time, NBC featured two, and CBS televised the Big Ten tournament championship. ABC presented five regular-season games and nine during the NCAA Tournament.

Quick Glance: Taylor Swift's New Album 'The Tortured Poets Department' Needs an Editor: Review

Taylor Swift's 11th studio album delves into her recent romances over 16 songs and a second LP, but the recurring themes yield diminishing returns.

Swift's stretch of productivity and commercial success was also emotionally tumultuous, as revealed in her album 'The Tortured Poets Department.'

The album returns to autobiographical and sometimes spiteful tales of heartbreak, full of detailed, referential lyrics that Swift's fans will delight in decoding.

The first two songs of the album serve as potent reminders of how viscerally Swift can summon the flushed delirium of a doomed romance, with the title track showcasing a humanizing touch.
