Boston, Mass. – After two impressive victories over Towson and Wagner, UMBC junior goalie Amara Codd and sophomore defender Olivia Nardone were bestowed with women's soccer weekly accolades. UMBC beat Towson for the first time in more than two decades, snapping a winless streak that stretched all the way back to 1998. The Retrievers then toppled Wagner, the reigning Northeast Conference champions, in another hard-fought contest. Codd played poised in between the pipes with five crucial saves against the Tigers and matched that performance with five more against the Seahawks. She now ranks third in the conference with an impressive 4.50 saves per game and sits sixth in the league with a 1.25 goals-against average. Codd has played all 720 minutes so far this season. Nardone anchored the defense in both victories and set up Rian Stainton's dramatic game-winning goal in the 69th minute against Towson, her second career assist. The Retrievers are off to their fastest start since 2014, boasting an impressive 5-1-2 record.

This press release contains information that some readers may find upsetting  Meta failed to address harmful rhetoric on Facebook against the LGBTI community in Hungary by ineffectively applying its own moderation policies, a new Amnesty International briefing shows.   ‘ It Erodes My Soul’: Meta’s Contribution to Anti-LGBTI Discourse in Hungary , shows how Meta’s policy decisions, including the weakening of safeguards for high risk groups in January 2025 and the significant reduction in proactive content moderation, have negatively affected the LGBTI community in Hungary.  “Meta contributed to adverse human rights impacts experienced by LGBTI people in Hungary through its policy decisions, and failed to take adequate steps to prevent the resulting harm. Risks to LGBTI people in Hungary were foreseeable and well documented, yet Meta did not adequately act on them,” said Daniela Schnidrig, Interim Policy and Advocacy Adviser at Amnesty International’s Big Tech Accountability Team.   One of Meta’s failures was not properly assessing the risks that changes to its global policies posed to the Hungarian LGBTI community.  » Read More
