In Sterling Hampton IV’s Twitch: The Story of Daniel Franco , one brutal night in the ring transforms a rising boxer’s life into a long and uncertain fight for survival. What begins as the story of a man chasing glory soon becomes one about rebuilding everything after the body and brain refuse to cooperate. Daniel “Twitch” Franco is a professional Latin-American boxer heading into the biggest fight of his career, chasing the kind of future that makes all the punishment seem worth it. Sterling Hampton IV’s documentary follows Daniel as a fighter built on discipline, sacrifice, and the hope that boxing can change everything for him and his family. Daniel Franco went from a promising boxer to an overnight sensation when he discovered his “Twitch”—a small gesture that reminded him to reset, keep his stance right, and tuck his chin, because you cannot win on emotion alone. Franco was quickly rising in the ranks of independent boxing. It only takes one match for everything to change in an instant. In a fluke knockout, Daniel nearly loses his life and spends 10 days in a coma. His friends and family were told he did not have long to live, and then

(By Tammy Perkins) Your role was eliminated. Your capability wasn’t Fast Company on LinkedIn This resonates strongly, especially in Nigeria. Many professionals have experienced this quietly. A bank restructures, and the marketers who once drove physical account openings are now less central because everything is done through mobile apps. Newspapers that once had large print teams now prioritise digital content. Even administrative roles are shrinking as HR systems and automation take over routine work. It doesn’t mean the people in those roles lacked competence. The business moved. The real lesson is this: roles can disappear, but capability must continue to evolve. In today’s economy, our greatest job security is our ability to learn, adapt, and stay relevant. This is spot on. In a labor market that’s constantly shifting, titles are often the least durable part of a career. What actually carries forward are the capabilities behind them — the judgment, problem-solving, and experience that translate across roles and industries. Layoffs tend to force that realization faster than people expect. The professionals who rebound quickest usually take the

"That was cleaning; it would make me feel better," the 24-year-old tells CNBC Make It. "My actual room was in complete disarray, but it would feel better because my life was on my phone." Conflating her real and online lives was one of "a series of cracks" signaling her technology use had gotten out of hand, she says. "The apps became the center of gravity of my life in which the other things would orbit." Today, Nguyen has no personal social media. She practices what she calls appstinence, a play on "app" and "abstinence" that refers to "a firm push for young people to remove social media from their personal lives," according to the website for her advocacy group of the same name, where she and other members of Gen Z help their peers take the leap. Founded in 2024 as a student organization at Harvard, the group encourages what it calls the 5D method: decrease, deactivate, delete, downgrade and finally depart social media. But appstinence is not "a hard and fast line," Nguyen says. "The idea is that you're moving

The research highlighted the growing role that lawyers and staff at all levels play in shaping law firms’ online visibility, with firms such as Hogan Lovells and Ashurst LLP among top performers. Researchers assessed LinkedIn social media maturity across four dimensions in their first ‘social media barometer’ for law firms, including: a ‘firm score’, based on followers and engagements per employee; an ‘influencers score’, reflecting the number of lawyers and staff in TBD’s top 1,000 legal LinkedIn influencers; a ‘social army score’, measuring the number of lawyers and staff posting on LinkedIn; and a ‘leadership score’, informed by the posts of senior and managing partners. Using this framework, City law firms claimed the top three spots in the rankings, with Hogan Lovells topping the leaderboard, showing “consistent engagement rather than reliance on a small number of standout individuals”. Ashurst, which came second, was recognised for its leadership visibility, and Bird & Bird, which came third, performed “strongly across the board”. Other highly-ranked firms included Addleshaw Goddard, Brabners LLP, Lewis Silkin, Linklaters LLP

"Thank you for giving me the best job in the world," Parnas wrote on social media after the New York event, sharing a selfie with Harris before a packed house at The Town Hall venue in Manhattan. "We're just getting started." Parnas rose from a boy wonder in Boca Raton, Florida, to one of the most-followed left-wing personalities of President Donald Trump's second term. The one-man content-generation factory introduces each story with a variation of his signature catchphrase, "We have some news right now," completing his deadpan delivery of the day's biggest developments in an even tone. From his front-facing iPhone camera, the low-key lawyer, formerly a practicing civil litigator, amassed more than 7.5 million followers on Instagram and TikTok. His fan base eclipses the entire following of progressive American media companies such as The Huffington Post and Mother Jones. In December, business magazine Forbes named him among its annual 30 Under 30 media influencers, an honor bestowed
