At most colleges, there’s a lot of focus on diversity. As a native of Nigeria, I’m obviously different from my classmates. But the biggest difference hasn’t been nationality—it’s been money. Dormmates have teased me about being the only person alive without a flat-panel LCD computer monitor. While classmates watch football games from the student section, I work as a parking attendant. I worry about my grades just as much as they do—but I also worry about unexpected dental bills or finding $200 for the medical-school admissions test....

Perhaps that is why the human race appears so determined to leave behind so much plastic. After all, plastic can take anywhere from 500 to 1,000 years to degrade. As a result, nearly every piece of plastic ever made still exists in some form with the exception of the small share that has been incinerated out of existence. I could run further with this theory, but, of course, I know that it is fundamentally flawed....

‘Arsenal won’t end if Ozil & Sanchez exit’ At 35, the striker has proved age is just a number since swapping French champions Paris Saint-Germain for United in the off-season, after taking his 2016-17 tally to 16 goals following his two-goal haul against West Brom on Saturday. Ibrahimovic - who is expected to sign a new contract after arriving on an initial one-year deal - scored both goals in the 2-0 victory at The Hawthorns, with the former Sweden captain how enjoying a run of 10 goals in nine matches in all competitions....

Ibra escapes red for elbow on Mings Having picked up a yellow card for shooting his mouth off after Friend had awarded a penalty to Bournemouth moments earlier, Ibrahimovic should undoubtedly have seen red for planting a pre-meditated elbow in the face of the Cherries defender. Yes, there had been a couple of clashes between the two earlier, with Ibrahimovic throwing Mings to the ground in back play and the Bournemouth man stamping on a stricken Ibra after having clearly seen the United striker prostrate on the ground....

The enigmatic frontman is being heavily linked with a switch to America as a short-term contract at Manchester United runs down. A return to the Red Devils’ ranks was made in November, but the 36-year-old is still struggling with knee issues following surgery on ligament damage and has been unable to replicate his form from 2016-17. Jose Mourinho has revealed that he will not stand in the Swede’s way if he wishes to leave Old Trafford, and those in Los Angeles are hoping that a mooted deal for a modern day icon can be pushed through....

ICC head Stillitano faced a wave of criticism in March 2016 for attending a meeting with executives from Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, Manchester City and Manchester United with the suggestion that an alternative to the Champions League was being proposed. Stillitano believes that the ICC will remain an integral part of pre-season preparations and enjoys good relationships with many of the clubs involved.

One potential candidate actually came to the United States in search of some good tests and also to showcase its incredible story. Iceland, the tiny Island nation of 338,349 inhabitants, played friendlies in San Francisco and New Jersey, giving U.S. fans — as well as the many Mexican and Peruvian fans in the United States — a chance to see the underdog team that made such a big splash at the 2016 European Championships....

The court, currently holding a 6-3 majority of conservative justices, is set to hear arguments concerning the Mississippi law that bans all abortions after 15 weeks and is also on hold after a 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruling.

Back in 2020, a video went viral that appeared to show Miller choking a female fan in an Iceland bar. Two years later, in May of 2022, the actor was arrested in a Hawaii bar for allegedly spitting in someone’s face.

The teams meet in a mouth-watering semi-final to determine which side will advance to face either Liverpool or Roma in next month’s decider in Kiev. If the Bundesliga champions advance, they will be in contention to complete the treble, having crushed Bayer Leverkusen 6-2 on Tuesday to reach the DFB-Pokal final.

The Penguins winger, who started training camp as the leading candidate to fill one theoretically open wing-man role for Sidney Crosby or Evgeni Malkin, caught his leg in a rut on Friday morning during a 3-on-3 neutral-zone drill, went down, and needed help off the ice. When you hear that, you think serious knee injury. Maybe not, coach Mike Johnston said. “When he was skating across the ice, (Kasperi) Kapanen’s skate clipped him on the back of the heel and so he spun around in an awkward manner,” Johnston said after practice....
