Thus far, the moment that has resonated the most came at the end of the opening event of the year following Kayla Harrison’s unanimous decision victory over UFC vet Larissa Pacheco.

Keilar was echoing what her colleague, Jeff Zeleny, said in a live feed about how the presidential race began with one of the most diverse field of candidates—naming Harris, Senator Kirsten Gillibrand and Senator Cory Booker as examples—but those numbers have been greatly reduced in a short amount of time. CNN chief political analyst Gloria Borger agreed with the assessment, adding that Harris was a great candidate who didn’t want to lose the California primary....

Makhmalbaf shows us a country that, in his words, “has been vaccinated against modern civilization.” We see a school where young boys are taught to praise Kalashnikov rifles. We see a local doctor–who turns out to be a black American searching for God–examine his female patient through a hole in a cloth curtain. We see the skeletons of those dead from famine, and the countless maimed victims of land mines who rush to catch the prosthetic legs that parachute through the skies from Red Cross planes....

The new trailer, entitled Welcome To Shanghai, features the dastardly duo shooting their way through the gritty streets of Shanghai as they chase down a semi-nude man. The footage seems to be entirely from the in-game engine, and for the first time we get to see the low budget, digital video style filter we’ve heard mentioned before. Why not check it out for yourself: httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4EXcGZQ278k The trailer has certainly piqued my interest in the title; while the graphics weren’t mind blowing, I found the camera-work was very reminiscent of Paul Greengrass’ and Michael Mann’s work....

Kane continued to shine in the Champions League on Tuesday, scoring a perfect hat-trick in a 3-0 win over APOEL to move onto five goals in two games in Europe this season. Kane 11/2 to be CL top scorer The England forward has been compared to Real Madrid superstar Ronaldo and Barcelona maestro Messi, who are regarded as the world’s two best players. Lloris was unwilling to put his team-mate in that category just yet, but the France goalkeeper believes Kane has the ability to be among the best....

Remarkably for a player of his obvious talent, the England international has failed to net in the opening month of a top-flight campaign so far in his career. That run was extended on Sunday as Spurs played out a 1-1 draw with Burnley at Wembley. Mauricio Pochettino’s side thought they were on course for a first league success at their temporary home after seeing Dele Alli break the deadlock, but Chris Wood denied them in stoppage-time....

Mauricio Pochettino’s Tottenham benefited from a VAR decision on Tuesday — with Harry Kane winning and converting a penalty in the League Cup semifinal first leg against Chelsea — but the manager still grumbled about the technology. “I don’t like,” Pochettino said after the 1-0 win. “I think it is not clear what are the rules.” Chelsea manager Maurizio Sarri readily agreed, unhappy about how the penalty was awarded at Wembley Stadium in a rare use of VAR in English football....

Kane has been in a prolonged rich vein of form and the England striker brought up 50 goals for club and country in 2017 on Saturday with a double in Spurs’ 5-1 demolition of Stoke City at Wembley. Matthaus believes only Bayern forward Robert Lewandowski is superior to Kane in his position at present, adding that the 24-year-old has youth on his side. Having already beaten Borussia Dortmund and Real Madrid during the group stages, Tottenham drew another heavyweight opponent in the last-16 of the Champions League as they were paired with Juventus, and Matthaus sees it as another chance for Kane to impress on the big stage....

A muscular issue forced the France international off after just 10 minutes of the Premier League meeting at Stamford Bridge, with Ruben Loftus-Cheek taking his place. Maurizio Sarri may have to plan for the visit of Eintracht on Thursday without Kante, who completed the full 90 minutes in the 1-1 first-leg draw. Kante suffered an injury to his ribs against Burnley on April 22 but was able to play a full part in Chelsea’s next two games....

The Trump-backed candidate had initially brought 10 counts in a bid to prevent her Democratic opponent, Governor-elect Katie Hobbs, from taking office. However, Thompson only allowed two to go to trial. In a Saturday decision, Thompson ruled that Lake’s lawyers had not provided “clear and convincing” evidence of misconduct on the part of election officials....
