  Kevin Stefanski Hands Over Browns Play-Calling Duties to Offensive Coordinator Ken Dorsey: A New Era for Cleveland’s Offense In a significant shift for the Cleveland Browns, head coach Kevin Stefanski has decided to relinquish his play-calling responsibilities, passing them on to recently hired offensive coordinator Ken Dorsey. This move marks a pivotal moment in the evolution of the Browns’ offense, signaling Stefanski’s willingness to adapt in hopes of igniting the team's underwhelming performance on that side of the ball. The Decision to Step Back Since taking over as head coach in 2020, Stefanski has called offensive plays for the Browns.

Apple stock dipped as much as 7.39 percent Wednesday, stripping $24 billion from its market cap in after-hours trading, after its iconic leader Steve Jobs announced he was stepping down as CEO amid longstanding health concerns. Under Jobs, whose vision is credited with delivering an unprecedented string of breakthrough products from the Apple II to the iPad, Apple had surged from near bankruptcy in the late 1990s to the most valuable company in the world this month, briefly topping Exxon Mobile.

Fear and the global debt problem

  The huge stock market drop is discounting a long-lasting and deep recession. And it may, as well, have a hand in creating that recession. Nothing engenders fear like a stock market crash. And fear causes economies to slow to a crawl. The headlines of a 600-point drop in the Dow Jones industrials are shaking public confidence even more than the debt ceiling debacle or the S&P ratings downgrade. In fact, the one positive result of the market slide might be that Americans unite in protest against this very visible loss of wealth — and pressure both parties to come to a sensible agreement to deal with our debt problems. That would be the surest way to start restoring the more than $1 trillion lost in the broad stock market Monday. This is not just a problem with U.S. markets. There is a global debt problem — and it is creating concerns about European banks, country debt, and the ability of central banks to keep the global financial system intact. Part of that fear...
