The Barcelona superstar, then 24 years old, had just come off a season where he scored an astonishing 50 La Liga goals and 14 more in the Champions League across 48 total games. Meanwhile, just over 6,000 miles away, a 20-year-old Josh Cohen had just finished his junior year at UC San Diego, a season in which he had logged the second-longest shutout streak in Tritons program history at 766 minutes, ultimately earning a spot on the NCAA Division II All-American Second Team....

Joseph Vincent and James Solages, both believed to be Haitian Americans, were detained following Wednesday’s brutal early morning killing of Moïse, according to The Associated Press. Both men are said to be from Florida. Vincent, 55, is from Miami, while 35-year-old Solages is from Fort Lauderdale, according to The Miami Herald. The paper reported that Mathias Pierre, a minister in charge of Haitian elections, identified the suspects. Solages is reportedly the youngest of all the identified suspects, while Vincent is the oldest....

The loss to Selangor in the Malaysia Cup in Round 3 of the group stage was the first for Johor Darul Ta’zim (JDT) since their exit from the 2017 AFC Cup back in May. In a twist of fate, both defeats had a similar outlook about it. A poor first half that followed by an improved second half performance. To cap it off, the concession of the last minute penalty to the opposition would bring back harsh memories for the players and fans....

It can fly autonomously throughout your house and can provide you the live view of either of the rooms you want without having to install separate cameras in multiple locations. Moreover, you can also lay out and schedule preset flying paths for the drone cam. DRDO PROVIDES SURVEILLANCE “BHARAT DRONE” FOR INDIA-CHINA BORDER Tech Crunch also quoted Ring Founder-CEO, Jamie Siminoff that the idea behind the new Always Home Cam actually came from user feedback who wished they’d either been home or been able to see when some specific thing happened at a specific place in their house....

Shuffle Music has become more of a backdrop to other activities, and this kind of setup fits that very well. But there’s another part to this: What about the musicians? Won’t You Please Think of the Musicians? This makes me wish for a whole-catalog shuffle on Apple Music or Spotify, a way to hear new music, instead of Apple Music’s poor algorithmically chosen New Music mix. And why stop here? There must be plenty of ways to present music when your streaming catalog includes pretty much every song around....

Authors Guild in New York, for example, said it objected to the plan to sell rights to top-level domain terms relevant to the book industry to private companies. The guild claims to represent more than 8,000 published writers. Placing such generic domains in private hands is plainly anticompetitive, allowing already dominant, well-capitalized companies to expand and entrench their market power, Authors Guild President Scott Turow said in a letter to ICANN....

A lot has changed at the Statue of Liberty since September 11, 2001–and the demand that I remove my belt is just the surface manifestation of much of what we have lost since that day. Perhaps you’re not even aware that the statue at the Statue of Liberty isn’t open. You can still take the ferry to Liberty Island ($10, thank you very much), but the statue itself has been shut “indefinitely,” according to the National Park Service....

So why does the United States Congress think otherwise? Over the summer, while the rest of us were debating Iraq, Homeland Security and James Traficant’s hair, Congress passed a resolution saying that thanks to “fraud and misrepresentation” on his part, Bell was “credited with inventing the telephone.” So who, according to the United States Congress, did invent the telephone? Why, Antonio Meucci, of course. According to the resolution–which passed by overwhelming voice vote on June 12, 2002–Meucci “demonstrated his invention in 1860” but was “unable to raise sufficient funds to pay his way through the patent application process and thus had to settle for a caveat, a one-year renewable notice of an impending patent....

Most Americans say the country’s culture and way of life have changed for the better over the past 70 years, but majorities of both GOP voters and white Christians see post-1950s society as weak, immoral and too diverse. A new survey released Monday by the nonpartisan Public Religion Research Institute (PRRI) found 60 percent of Republicans saying U.S. society is too soft. About 63 percent of Republicans say American culture is “too feminine,” compared with twice the percentage of either Democrats (24 percent) or Independents (33 percent) who feel the same....

Phinney said Saturday he felt every day he could lose his lead, “so every day I felt relieved”, reports Xinhua. The 25-year-old Kittel won the last leg in 2:41:9 but his victories for the last three out of four stages were not enough to displace Phinney from being the overall winner. The German was followed by Australian Mark Renshaw for Omega Pharma QuickStep and Andrea Guardini (Italy) of Astana....

Lavrov—who has served as Russia’s top diplomat since 2004—told reporters Friday the Kremlin is unhappy with American foreign conduct, whether related to Iran, the rest of the Middle East or nuclear arms control restrictions. Lavrov said the world “continues to be in turmoil,” according to Russia’s Tass state news agency, and blamed the U.S. and its western allies for the situation. He complained of “aggressive policies of certain western countries, and our American colleagues in particular, aimed at demolishing the security architecture established by international law....

Maybe we were just bad electricians. But every time I hear calls for government to “fix” American tech, I remember the danger of tearing apart working but complicated systems. As my dad repeatedly said: “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.” Some have soured on the open and dynamic environment that enabled U.S. tech companies big and small to become the world’s most successful innovators. They want to uproot the entire tech industry from this lush environment and transplant it into a government-designed desert terrarium with glass walls of regulation—just because they dislike certain practices by a few companies....

Although the economic recovery from the Great Recession has continued for more than 10 years, 38 percent of Americans are still concerned about keeping up with their bills, according to a survey from consumer finance company Bankrate released Wednesday. The survey, which was conducted earlier this month among 1,017 respondents, found that 29 percent of Americans were focused on savings and 19 percent were focused on paying debt. The survey found that individuals earning more money were more focused on saving....

Gallup found that favorable opinions of China have dropped to 20 percent while those of Russia are at 22 percent. For both nations the favorability scores were the lowest Gallup has ever recorded. The survey included 1,021 adults living in all 50 U.S. states and the District of Columbia. The poll was conducted between February 3 and 18, and has a sampling error of 4 percentage points. American favorability of China plummeted over the past year as the world grappled with the coronavirus pandemic....

Last year, Texas protected free speech from Big Tech censorship by passing a statute finding that the largest social media platforms are “common carriers” and barring them from discriminating against speech on grounds of viewpoint. Common carriers are publicly accessible conduits for the goods or communications of others. Traditionally, because they are open to the public, serve a public function, enjoy legal privileges or have market dominance, they can be regulated to bar them from discriminating....

A report released by five U.N. agencies found that about 10 percent of people globally are likely undernourished and hunger eclipsed population growth in 2020. The recessions and decreased food access caused by the pandemic seem to have exacerbated the issue, the report said. “Yet even before the pandemic, hunger was spreading; progress on malnutrition lagged,” the U.N. wrote in the report. Children especially suffered, with 149 million under five years old estimated to have experienced stunted growth and 45 million approximated to be too thin for their height....

RELATED: Twitch Prime Will No Longer Be Ad-Free PUBG Mobile is just the first of Twitch Prime’s plans to expand into mobile gaming. There are plans to offer further free content for the “most popular mobile games across many favorite genres.” It wouldn’t be surprising to see Twitch partner with Fortnite for some mobile skins, or with Niantic to potentially offer Pokemon Go loot. PUBG Mobile is available now on iOS and Android devices....
