There were 13 games scheduled around baseball on Thursday, the first day of July, but Angels-Yankees set for a 1:05 p.m. ET first pitch already has been postponed because there's a flash flood watch in the Bronx. That means the Halos will have to return to New York for a makeup game at some point. Unfortunately, night games between the Marlins-Phillies, Dodgers-Nationals, Brewers-Pirates and Cardinals-Rockies all are in jeopardy, too. Click here for the SportsLine Projection Model's Thursday parlay (if all games played) that would pay 13/1.

However, any series potentially ending on Thursday makes things trickier – especially if it's a team...

Host: Jane Pauley COVER STORY: The boom-and-bust history of Butte, Montana For a small town, Butte, Montana is rich in history – from being, at one time, the largest city between Chicago and San Francisco, to being the site of one of the world's most productive copper mines.

(Pool) President Biden is delivering remarks from the White House on his administration's next efforts to combat the Covid-19 pandemic and get more Americans vaccinated. According to a White House fact sheet, Biden will announce that, in an attempt to protect workers, "every federal government employee and onsite contractor will be asked to attest to their vaccination status." Employees who have not been vaccinated "will be required to wear a mask on the job no matter their geographic location, physically distance from all other employees and visitors, comply with a weekly or twice weekly screening testing requirement, and be subject to restrictions on official travel." It's not a mandate, officials insist, and most federal employees who do not get vaccinated will not lose their jobs as a result. Still, the shift toward placing the onus for the current situation on those who have refused to get vaccinated reflects Biden's growing impat...
