“HOPE AARON HERNANDEZ HAUNTS YOU IN YOUR MISERABLE DREAMS.” “F–K YOU. YOU’RE UGLY INSIDE AND OUT.” “YOU SHOULD BE RAPED.” “YOUR MOTHER SHOULD KILL HERSELF FOR GIVING BIRTH TO YOU.” “I HOPE YOUR ENTIRE FAMILY DIES IN A HOUSE FIRE.” “SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET YOU OLD DYKE C–T” “WHITE BITCH. HOPE YOU GET AIDS.” “KILLER. YOU SHOULD DIE INSTEAD OF AARON.” This is a sampling of the “fan mail” you receive when you become a target of an inaccurate narrative and irresponsible journalism....

Abramoff also had to check his black raincoat and black fedora at the door. He’s still sporting a monochromatic look, but in a different shade: “Institution-issued green pants, green shirt, belt, socks, underwear and institution shoes or personal tennis shoes.” At least he can look forward to meaningful work, like laboring in the prison kitchen for pennies an hour. He’s got food service experience, sort of. On the outside, Abramoff could often be found at table 40 in Signatures, his D....

The highlights were their home wins against eventual champions Aizawl FC and East Bengal while they also managed to hold Bengaluru FC. That this came despite a change in coaching personnel midway through the season and other infrastructure challenges in Chennai showed the club in a good light. With a season of top-tier league football under their belt, one would have expected Chennai City to show an improvement in their performances when the new season of I-League kicked off this November 25th....

These are the stark facts that confront us when Bengaluru FC host East Bengal in round eleven encounter of the 2017 I-League at Bengaluru on Saturday. The hosts’ title defence has been marred by a run so treacherous that their aspirations of holding on to the trophy for one more year are under serious threat. As for East Bengal, they are leading the standings but recent history suggests that the Southern Eagles love to score more than a couple of goals at home against the Kolkata side....

Minerva Punjab are in the limelight for the right reasons. Four games into the new season and they are top of the table, unbeaten and three points ahead of Kolkata giants Mohun Bagan, who have a game in hand. Just like it is unfair to criticise one player for the defeat of a team, it would be considered an exaggeration to say Minerva’s new signing Chencho Gyeltshen is the reason why they are where they are....

“The Bid Evaluation Committee was to meet on the 15th of this month but then there was a suggestion that it could convene on the 16th morning. However, now it has been pushed back to next week,” informed an AIFF official.

Not me. I kick off my holiday by inhaling bus fumes near The New Yorker Hotel in Manhattan. I am confused, nervous and have no coat on. My friends Bill and Catherine are in the same state. Yet we’re happy. Perhaps it’s the clowns or the foam-pineapple people that surround us. Maybe it’s the giant bees or the marching bands. No, we are not on ecstacy or having a pre-holiday nervous breakdown....

To be fair, Trump inherited an extremely tense standoff between Russian and American intelligence services that had been escalating for years. Nowhere was this tension clearer than in Moscow, where Russian officials engaged in severely aggressive acts against U.S. diplomats during the Obama administration. Incidents reportedly included breaking into a diplomat’s house and defecating on his carpet, as well as killing a defense attaché’s dog. And in perhaps the most shocking case, a diplomat was attacked by a uniformed Russian guard at the U....

That was my recurring thought as I saw the unfolding furor over Matt Damon’s recent interview with the Times in which the actor admitted he’d only recently stopped using a slur to refer to gay people. “The word that my daughter calls the ‘f-slur for a homosexual’ was commonly used when I was a kid, with a different application,” the actor said, explaining that he recently made a joke using the slur....

Journalists and pundits across the board have, since the infamous January 6 insurrection, persistently proclaimed that this is not how the U.S. should look like —that scenes of heavily armored personnel are better suited for Iraq and the Middle East. It is time we stop using the Middle East as our go-to destination for civil unrest and violence. The notion that violence is endemic to the Middle East is dogmatic....

The mamoth car industry supports millions of workers, but few have found a stranger way to make a buck than Priddy and a small band of other automotive paparazzi. Perched on hills by test tracks or cruising through California desert or Canadian tundra, they sneak past security guards and fight off the boredom of the stakeout to snap pics of cars years before the public is supposed to see them....

Diaby was once one of the great hopes of French football, yet his career has been marked by incredible injury issues over the years. Arsenal 16/5 to beat Chelsea The 31-year-old has managed to play just 139 league matches in a career that began with Auxerre in 2004, while he featured just five times in Ligue 1 for OM over a two-year period. “Retiring? I’ve thought about it, but my conclusion is that I want to work, to rehabilitate myself and to play football again,” he told Canal Football Club....

The team is expected to convert Desmond, 30, into a left fielder, with Elvis Andrus remaining at shortstop. MORE: These MLB milestones could be reached in 2016 The Rangers will lose their 19th overall draft pick this year because Desmond turned down a qualifying offer from the Nationals, for whom he batted .233/.290/.384 with 19 home runs, 62 RBIs, 13 stolen bases and 69 runs scored in 156 games in 2015....

One video that circulated on social media on Tuesday showed an individual holding the popsicle under the flame of a lighter, with temperatures reaching about 4,000 degrees Fahrenheit, Global Times reported. The footage sparked concern from customers, many wondering if the popsicles were a safety concern due to potential additives making them unable to melt.

Cube released his Contract With Black America (CWBA) in July, detailing his plans for fighting U.S. racial inequality. President Donald Trump’s administration revealed its Platinum Plan, designed to help close the wealth gap between Blacks and whites. Cube confirmed that he had been speaking with the Trump campaign about racial issues in a Wednesday tweet, causing some critics to complain that Cube had switched political allegiance. However, Cube said he had spoken to both Trump’s camp and Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden’s campaign....

A look inside Pogba’s £2.9m mansion An Icelandic hospital administered a record number of epidurals on pregnant women giving birth this weekend - exactly nine months after the stunning result in Nice. Lars Lagerback’s team beat the Three Lions back on June 27 of last year, sparking huge celebrations among the many fans that had travelled to France as well as those watching from home. And the parties had a predictable result: According to the Icelandic magazine Visir, pain relief was given to more expectant mothers at Landspitali hospital than ever before over the weekend of March 25 and 26....

Whether he sticks around merely as long as it takes to get to 3,000 hits in the majors or the ageless wonder plays a few more years, he’ll arrive on the Hall of Fame ballot for the Baseball Writers Association of America five years after he retires. When this happens, Ichiro will be a quick, almost automatic selection for Cooperstown. The writers will vote Ichiro in as soon as he’s eligible, making him one of the easiest inductions in recent years....

The state GOP tweeted about a “packed house” during a “Keep Idaho Red” rally held at First Baptist Church in Coeur d’Alene on Monday night, prompting backlash, as tax-exempt religious institutions are legally obliged to refrain from participating in partisan political activity. “Packed house tonite at our #KeepIdahoRed Rally in CDA,” Idaho GOP tweeted. “Thank you First Baptist Church for opening your doors, to our GOP candidates for being there to speak, to voters for attending & most importantly thank you to our hardworking volunteers who made it happen!...

Steve Goncalves, the father of 21-year-old Kaylee Goncalves, who was fatally stabbed in her off-campus residence near the University of Idaho last month, recently spoke with NewsNation and was asked if his daughter had any connection to Kohberger. “I’m biased, but if he got to know my daughter, I would think it would be impossible for you to hurt her, so I think a little bit of us all kinda felt like this was somebody who didn’t have a chance to meet her, talk to her, get to know her because she was [a] very likable person and she didn’t have a mean bone in her body,” Goncalves said....

While speaking to KREM-TV in Spokane, Washington, on Wednesday, Fry was asked about police withholding information on the case as the investigation continues and said, “It’s not just about today, it’s about in a year from now or whenever we make an arrest and go to trial.” “We want to have that pool of people who can look at the case and not have all the facts to that to make the decision to find this person guilty,” Fry added....
