Stills, known to be outspoken about social issues, wasn’t apologetic when asked about his remarks after Thursday’s preseason opener against the Falcons. “If you’re going to associate with bad people, then people are going to know about it,” Stills told reporters (via the Miami Herald). “I think there’s ways you can support candidates without it being so public and without it being at your personal, private residence. I put it out there so everybody could see it....

“Given that the county party that I represent supports President Trump overwhelmingly, and your complete and total disdain for the will of your constituents here in Nelson county I am formally demanding you immediately resign your leadership position within our party’s caucus in the United States Senate,” Thrasher said in a statement, referring to McConnell. “The overwhelming number of Republicans in Nelson County are not on your side on this issue, and I speak on their behalf,” Thrasher continued, adding that McConnell’s “leadership in the US Senate does not represent the Republican voters that put our faith in you in the last primary election....

Frederick Jones asked to erase a 1998 felony theft conviction from his court records. However, he was unable to pay the $340 in fees to remove the crime. After being denied in lower courts, the Kentucky Supreme Court decided that he and others should not have to pay for a felony expungement under the state’s “in forma pauperis” statute. “We can identify no other situation in our commonwealth where a judge renders a judgment that a litigant is entitled to a benefit under the law, but that litigant cannot obtain the benefit of that judgment unless and until he pays a fee,” wrote Justice Michelle Keller in the unanimous opinion....

The 33-year-old Olympic champion, aided by a string of pacemakers through to 25km of the 42.195km race, took 1min 17sec off the previous best set four years ago by Dennis Kimetto. It was the largest single improvement on the marathon world record since Derek Clayton improved the mark by 2:23 in 1967. “My only words are ‘Thank you!’,” said Kipchoge. Acclaimed as the greatest marathon runner of the modern era, Kipchoge has dominated marathon racing since making his debut in Hamburg in 2013 after a successful track career that saw him win world gold and silver (2003, 2007) in the 5000m and Olympic silver and bronze (2008, 2004) over the same distance....

Spurs acted swiftly to replace Pochettino, sacking their manager after five years at the helm on Tuesday before appointing Jose Mourinho. While Mourinho’s previous spells in charge of Chelsea look likely to make him a divisive figure among the Tottenham faithful during the early stages of his reign, Pochettino opting to switch allegiance in north London would cause a whole other kind of ructions. Gunners head coach Unai Emery has come under increasing scrutiny amid a mixed start to the season and, although Keown does not want any rash decisions on the former Sevilla and Paris Saint-Germain tactician’s future, he feels the Arsenal board should be duly aware of unexpectedly changing circumstances....

The fresh terms will keep the highly-rated goalkeeper in his current surroundings until 2025. Goal revealed on Sunday that the 23-year-old was set to commit to a new deal and quash links to Madrid. He had been heavily linked with a move elsewhere as his previous contract was set to expire at the end of the current campaign. A €20 million switch to Santiago Bernabeu had been mooted for the Spain international, but he will now be staying put....

Though Quan is not set to appear in Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny, he portrayed the character of Short Round in Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom. Short Round was a precocious Chinese boy who aided Indy on that adventure and is one of the most iconic characters from the series. Despite this, it’s never been confirmed what happened to Short Round following that film. RELATED: Star Wars Fan Finds Old-School Vending Machine That is Still Advertising Episode 1...

Coming off the back of a 4-1 loss to Middlesbrough, the Irishman criticised team-mates he did not believe were putting sufficient effort in to help the cause when speaking to MUTV. Red Devils 14/1 to win the Champions League Keane believes people have been “brainwashed” by the idea that he was forced out of the club because of his comments and claims it was actually his decision to appeal the £5,000 fine he was given that pushed then manager Sir Alex Ferguson over his tipping point....

“Bad actors know that people are expecting unreasonably low prices on products, making the idea that if it’s too good to be true, it probably isn’t, far from their minds,” Erich Kron, security awareness advocate with KnowBe4, told Lifewire over email. “[Scammers] will use this expectation and the excitement of great deals to try to lure people into falling for fake deals on fake websites, where they steal everything from your password to your credit card information....

On Saturday, July 23, a tweet mentioning their “similarities and differences” was doing the rounds online. User Melinda Eg wrote: “I’d like someone to do a deep-drive on the similarities and differences between Keke Palmer and Zendaya’s careers. This may be one of the clearest examples of how colorism plays out in Hollywood. They were both child-stars, but their mainstream popularity is very different.” At the time of publication, the post had garnered 9,385 retweets, 2,438 quote tweets and 81,000 likes....

Unlocking Fast Travel Spots in Kena: Bridge of Spirits Fast travel is tied closely to the story of Kena: Bridge of Spirits. As players progress through the map, they will walk by little blue flames on what look like mini shrines. They are tall, diamond-shaped stones carved with symbols, and the Rot tend to pose on them when Kena activates one. Each of these is a fast travel point that Kena can travel to, and Kena activates them by just wandering close enough to them....

The game follows Kena, a young woman on a journey to a mysterious mountain shrine who must use magical abilities and enlist the help of adorable little creatures to reach her goal. These creatures – called the Rot – can be recruited to aid Kena in a variety of ways, prompting the comparison with Nintendo’s Pikmin franchise. Kena: Bridge of Spirits will be making an appearance at the Tribeca Film Festival in June, where fans are expecting to see some new gameplay....

Case in point: Michigan State running back Kenneth Walker III. The 2021 Doak Walker Award winner (as college football’s top running back) will hope to use his breakout campaign in East Lansing as a jumping-off point into the NFL. The fact he is considered a second-round pick has less to do with his production in college and more to do with running backs being devalued in today’s NFL.

The long-time ESPN host, who had been with the company for 27 years since a legendary letter led ESPN executives to hire him in 1994, went out in style with a fittingly fun “SportsCenter” sign-off that featured a lot of entertaining guests. Aaron Rodgers, Marshawn Lynch, Sue Bird and Jamal Crawford were some of the notable guests to join Mayne, and he certainly had fun with them. Each interview had fun soundbites but also saw poignant moments from the athletes being interviewed....

Tiz The Law, which cruised to victory at the Belmont Stakes on June 20 and followed that up with another big win at the Travers Stakes on Aug. 8, will be looking to keep his Triple Crown hopes alive and well ahead of the Preakness (Oct. 3), trading his home-state tracks in New York for Churchill Downs.
