Hi there 🤖 👋

However, for all the glory, the European Championships and the World Cup have failed to enthral me like the Premier League and club football in general. One of the main reasons for this is the absence of India from this level which in turn deprives me of a team to root for. Obviously, I follow the tournament just as meticulously, but it does not touch me and play with my feelings like the Premier League does....

But does that add excitement to this down-to-earth champion from Malaysia? Hardly for she is the type who takes success and failure with the same feeling. It must have hurt when she lost her prime position as world number one after holding it for 111 months, something none earlier had come near of achieving but that did not matter. It did not tell on her game for this talented lady knows nothing is permanent in life....

Manchester United had already won the Premier League and FA Cup while Bayern Munich had already won the Bundesliga and had booked a place in the DFB-Pokal final. However Bayern went on to lose the DFB-Pokal in the final. For Manchester United, Roy Keane and Paul Scholes missed out on the final due to suspension. This resulted in David Beckham and Nicky Butt forming the Central Midfield. Ryan Giggs started on the right while Jesper Blomqvist started on the left wing....

On April 30, 2017, Taylor Dumpson was inaugurated as the first black female student government president at American University (AU) in Washington, D.C.—the next day, the lawsuit says, a masked man hung nooses around campus. The nooses held bananas inscribed with racist messages against black people. After news of the harassment broke, Anglin posted an article mocking Dumpson on The Daily Stormer, writing “No one feels safe around bananas. Some racists have taken to calling this African Queen ‘Dumpy Dumpson,’ smdh [shaking my damn head]....

The “glorious comedy” of Blavatsky’s career is just the beginning of Washington’s bemused but never contemptuous history of how the mysterious East was retailed to the credulous West. Her supposed mystic contacts with the Great White Brotherhood of Masters -an incorporeal pantheon rooted in the fantasy novels of Edward Bulwer Lytton begat Theosophy, a vague blend of occultism and Eastern religion. Theosophy, in turn, helped soften up the American mind for the revelations of more bizarre and sinister charismatic teachers in our day, such J....

Police in other cities shake their heads when talk turns to the nation’s capital. True, crime in the District is down 18 percent this year, following a national trend. But while Washington is said to have more cops per capita than any other major city, the force had managed to solve just a third of the murders committed there through September. Auditors allege gross mismanagement through the ranks. Community leaders say cops are slow to get to crime scenes and don’t answer their phones....

There are a lot of little elements that make these movies similar as well, such as Ponyo and Lu having protective and paranormal fathers and both girls having curious and trusting personalities that bring them to the land and its people. However, there are some differences in the movies as well such as their message and the age range of the characters. The animation styles are also quite different....

The lack of awareness of the last sign, from protestors outraged about fantasy sports, was palpable in a week when students rallied against institutional racism and the free commuter paper in the New York subway, AM New York, had a preview of the fantasy sports protest right across the page break from the previous day’s protest by Doctors Without Borders against Pfizer’s high drug prices.

No one tells Ted Kennedy what to do; in any case, the Senate’s Democratic leaders were fine with his plan to give a big speech two days before President George W. Bush announced a troop “surge” in Iraq. They are generally glad to let Kennedy play the role he relishes: Irish-American Isaiah, calling his party to account even as legislative insiders keep their distance. This time party brass got more than they bargained for....

This fratricidal strife produced such terrible carnage, and such harrowing scenes of misery and death, that outsiders felt bound to intervene. The year is ending with foreign troops attempting to restore order in Somalia so that food can safely be distributed to a starving population. There are mounting demands for intervention in Bosnia, too, to stop Serbs from persecuting Muslims with a campaign of “ethnic cleansing,” the year’s grotesque euphemism for killing a people or driving them into exile....

Last week in Korea, the nightmares all seemed to be coming true. Washington appeared no closer to a resolution of the North Korean nuclear crisis than it was last March 12, when Pyongyang first announced its intention to withdraw from the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty. That has chilling implications for a future nucleararms race among Japan, China and the two Koreas, nations that already view each other warily at best. Now, even more than then, as one Tokyo-based diplomat put it late last week, “It’s getting harder to deny that maybe what the North wants at the end of this is The Bomb....

For some, these dietary changes are are health-oriented, but many are more motivated by concerns about the impacts of livestock farming on animal welfare and the environment. The idyllic farmyard pastures that reside in our imagination are a far cry from the truth of concentrated meat factory farming. In these intensive settings, tens of billions of animals are slaughtered every year. Animals are mutilated, male chicks and calves are often killed at birth, and many of the animals we eat spend their entire shortened lives in cages....

It is hard to believe that Germans carry very poor record against the Italians. These two sides are playing against each other since the first day of 1923. 32 games have been played between them where Italians have won 15 and 10 ended in a draw. What rubs salt on Germany’s wound is the fact that they have never defeated their rivals in any major match so far. It includes matches in WCs and Euros....

Newcomers to the Monogatari series may find themselves confused about how to start watching. Unlike most anime, the Monogatari series does not follow the regular seasonal structure of 12 to 13 or 24 to 26 episodes. Instead, its “seasons” are split up into mini-series structured around the story arcs established in the novels. While this can make keeping track of all of these series somewhat bothersome, they can also be easily grouped into three main seasons....
