The Toronto Raptors have been considered title contenders since they acquired Kawhi Leonard last year. They met expectations all season long and advanced into the second round by topping the Orlando Magic in a five-game series. Meanwhile, the Philadelphia 76ers have arguably the best starting lineup in the league. They appeared to be in trouble after they dropped their first playoff game to the Brooklyn Nets but rebounded with four straight victories to move on....

The incident occurred during the latter stages of the stalemate at the Amex Stadium, as Emery reacted in frustration to what he called “a bad action” from one of his players. The bottle appeared to touch a Brighton supporter, prompting an immediate apology from Emery, who was also seen approaching the fan at full time to say sorry again. “It wasn’t hard, but it touched one supporter for them. I said to them ‘I’m sorry’,” Emery told reporters after the game....

We (Arsenal) have a number of tricky clubs coming to town, including a sassy one from Napoli, stealers of Gonzalo Higuaín’s signature. They need a proper thrashing for that (even if we have only ourselves to blame. Scapegoating is always easier than looking oneself in the mirror). More seriously, let’s have a quick look at the three teams we’ll be hosting as well as the schedule itself. For those not familiar, each team plays twice, with the standard three points for a win and one for a draw, and a point earned for each goal scored on top of that....

Currently, bringing human models into the digital world is a somewhat arduous task requiring skilled artists to create meshes that encompass a human body. That time exponentially increases when one realizes the range of variety of a human species, from large lips to sharp elbows, or sloped noses to elongated ears. These skills tend to remove the ability to create custom meshes, instead relegating players to make do with whatever character configurator a title like Skyrim offers....

South Africa resumed on 75-1 on the third day, with Amla on 23 and Elgar 38, and the pair put on 135 for the second wicket – the first time they have shared a three-figure partnership in 27 attempts – before Elgar was caught by Jimmy Anderson fending off a short ball by Ben Stokes for 80. Although the dangerous Amla remained unbeaten on 61 as South Africa reached 160-3, Anderson then brought a new dynamic to proceedings by having Quinton de Kock caught behind for one....

In audio recordings obtained by The Verge, Zuckerberg can be heard sharing his disdain for Warren’s plan with employees. The 35-year-old tech mogul said that if Warren becomes president and follows through on her mission to split up large technology corporations like Facebook, then “I would bet that we will have a legal challenge, and I would bet that we will win the legal challenge.” “And does that still suck for us?...

Stories of past improprieties have swirled around Bloomberg during his presidential campaign, including a lawsuit in which a former employee of the mayor’s eponymous company alleged that, when she told Bloomberg that she was pregnant, Bloomberg told her to “kill it.” The lawsuit was settled out of court. Newsweek reached out to the Bloomberg campaign for comment but did not receive a response in time for publication. Warren brought along a copy of the release, which she constructed herself, telling the audience, “I used to teach contract law and I thought I would make this easy....

Former owner Li Yonghong missed Friday’s deadline to repay part of a loan worth more than 300 million euros from the U.S.-based hedge fund and Elliott has repossessed the holding company in Luxembourg that Li used to buy seven-time European champion Milan in April 2017. “Ownership and control of the holding company that owns AC Milan has today (Tuesday) been transferred to funds advised by Elliott Advisors (UK) Limited (“Elliott”),” read a statement by Elliott....

On August 7, 2018, Musk tweeted that he was “considering taking Tesla private at $420” per share, in a deal that would be valued at around $72 billion. Glen Littleton, an investor, sued Musk, Tesla and members of the company’s board, alleging that the tweets in question cost investors billions by sparking dramatic fluctuations in the prices of Tesla stock, options and bonds. Musk said in court papers that he was considering taking the Tesla private and believed that he had the backing of Saudi Arabia’s sovereign wealth to complete the deal, The Wall Street Journal reported....

Bremmer, founder and president of political risk consulting firm Eurasia Group, wrote in a newsletter to his firm’s subscribers that Musk had said Putin was “prepared to negotiate” on ending the war during a recent talk, according to a report published by Vice on Tuesday.

A Securities and Exchange Commission filing on Friday revealed that Musk had informed Twitter that he was backing out of the deal over alleged deceptions involving the platform’s “fake or spam accounts.” Twitter’s board soon announced plans to sue Musk for breaking the contract, saying in a statement that it would “enforce the merger agreement” in court and was “confident” of victory. Musk’s plans quickly inspired ridicule on Twitter, with several users apparently relishing the platform’s plans to sue the tech mogul and noting that he could soon be on the hook for a $1 billion termination penalty fee under the terms of the agreement....

Musk, the billionaire CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, tweeted about the wildly popular “Baby Shark Dance” video in reply to a post about internet memes. He remarked that the children’s video has “more views than humans”—a reference to the fact that it has been watched over 8.6 billion times on YouTube, while the human population of Earth is currently estimated at less than 8 billion. Shortly afterwards, a cryptocurrency token called Baby Shark saw a sharp spike in its price and trading volume....

China recorded a record-low birth rate of 6.77 births per 1,000 people last year, according to statistics released by China’s National Bureau of Statistics on Tuesday. At the end of 2022, the country had 850,000 fewer people than it did at the end of the previous year. It is the first time the country has reached such a low number since the Great Famine, between 1959 and 1961. This data is not a complete surprise as the country’s birth rate has been steadily declining for years....

The problems began when an April 4 installment of “Katie Couric’s Notebook”—a daily essay by the anchor that appears in video and audio form on CBS News’s Web site, among other places—was uncomfortably close to musings by Wall Street Journal columnist Jeffrey Zaslow on the fading allure of library books. Opining in his March 15 “Moving On” column headlined “Of the Places You’ll Go, Is The Library Still One of Them?...

Martinez was in the middle of a controversy after his lewd celebrations at the FIFA World Cup ceremony. He was also seen carrying around a baby doll with Kylian Mbappe’s face while celebrating the World Cup triumph in Argentina.

The Gone Girl actress, 31, who shares son Sylvester Apollo Bear with the film producer, was spotted walking their dog Colombo in New York City on Friday, July 15, sans sparklers. She looked casual in a white crop top, loose-fitting jeans and sunglasses. Breakup rumors first started swirling in June when Ratajkowski was photographed in Tribeca without her rings, which have also been missing from her social media posts as of late....

Their beef began after Snoop Dogg’s appearance on Eminem’s 2000 song, “Bitch Please II,” which Dr. Dre was also a part of. During an appearance on SiriusXM’s Paul Pod: Curtain Call 2—hosted by Eminem’s longtime manager Paul Rosenberg—the rapper, 49, said it was all just a “miscommunication.” “I think he had wanted to do something with me and maybe gave you the idea or something,” Eminem—whose real name is Marshall Bruce Mathers III—explained to Rosenberg....

Raducanu was knocked out of the Melbourne Park Major after losing in straight sets to Coco Gauff in a tense second-round match. The World No. 77 looked impressive against the American seventh seed but a lack of consistency and practice led to a 6-3, 7-6, (7-4) defeat. The 20-year-old battled an ankle ailment in Auckland prior to playing in Melbourne, and her defeat means she has not advanced to the third round of a Grand Slam since her historic victory at the 2021 US Open....
