Curious how our students are spending their vacation time this summer? 🌤️🏖️

A new semester is coming, but the adventures aren’t slowing down. This year, the sports department took you diving in the Philippines, surfing in Bali, over to France to go paragliding, kayaking, hiking and more throughout the seasons, bringing the energy all year long, and we’re not stopping anytime soon💥

What would you like to experience? Post in the comments below 👇

$🇺🇸 ENGLISH vs. 🇯🇵 JAPANESE: The price differences are staggering. Some of Pokémon’s most iconic vintage cards are commanding massive premiums in English compared to their Japanese counterparts, even when both are graded PSA 10. Recent sales highlight just how wide these gaps have become. Leafeon LV.X leads the group with a 140X premium, followed by Glaceon LV.X at 118X, Dragonite at 47X, and Umbreon at 32X. Much of the difference comes down to grading populations, collector demand, and the difficulty of finding certain English releases in gem mint condition. In several cases, the English PSA 10 population is a fraction of the Japanese equivalent. While these are individual sales rather than direct measures of overall market value, the spreads offer an interesting look at how differently collectors value the same artwork across languages. Are these English premiums justified, or are Japanese PSA 10s significantly undervalued? 🔔 Visit our link in bio to set real-time auction and new listing alerts, create saved searches, view sales, and more. 💙 Tap our Stories and join our alert channels to track live auctions and premier new listings.

Hi everyone, Tony here.

Kelsey asked me to share an update on her behalf. I know she’s been pretty quiet here over the past week, and I’m sure many of you have been wondering how she’s doing.

After more than two years of fighting stage 4 lung cancer, things have taken a significant turn. Late last week, her doctors told us that her time is extremely limited, likely just days to a week or so.

We’ve now transitioned Kelsey to a hospice facility, where the focus is on keeping her comfortable and allowing her to spend her remaining time in peace, surrounded by her boys and close family. I’ll be staying by her side indefinitely.

This has been incredibly difficult for all of us, especially the boys, her parents, her sister, and our close family. We’re trying to take things one day at a time and make the most of the time we have together.

I also want you all to know that I continue to see, receive, and feel the incredible amount of love you’re sending Kelsey. It’s humbling and awe-inspiring to see how many lives she’s touched through sharing her journey. The messages, stories, and support have meant so much. I wish she could fully see and feel just how loved she is through all of this.

Right now, the best thing you can do is keep sending your love and good vibes to Kelsey and our family. For those who have asked how they can help, Kelsey’s GoFundMe page is still active, and the link is in her bio. If you feel inclined to contribute, the support will help our family navigate the financial realities ahead. There’s absolutely no pressure, and we’re grateful for every bit of love and support, in whatever form it comes.

Thank you for following Kelsey’s journey, for loving my wife, and for continuing to show up for her and our family. This community has meant more to her than I can put into words, and it means so much to me, too. 🤍

Tony
