I'm Steve Ruiz, online content editor for OrlandoSentinel.com. Good morning. Did you know today is Ice Cube's 48th birthday? Here are other things -- we call them some of our top stories -- that you also might not be aware of. Send me an email and let me know what you think.

Good morning. It's Thursday, June 15. In our top stories, the lure of financial incentives has resulted in a flood of applications for teaching positions at struggling Carver Middle School.

Elsewhere, House GOP Whip Steve Scalise of Louisiana is in critical condition after being shot during a practice for a congressional baseball game in Virginia.

And finally, the 2017 Orlando Sentinel Varsity Sports Awards Show for high-school athletics was held Wednesday night. We have a photo gallery here.
