Hi there 🤖 👋

A bench of Chief Justice Rajendra Menon and Justice V K Rao dismissed the plea moved by some kabaddi players who were selected neither for the recent Asian Games nor the league. They had alleged in the petition that selections were being made by the Amateur Kabaddi Federation of India (AKFI) and the organisers of the tournament in an arbitrary manner. They had sought directions to Star India, which has the broadcast rights, Mashal Sports, the organiser, and AKFI to carry out fair selection of players for the tournament....

Manager Jurgen Klopp revealed the Senegal international has been limited to wearing flip-flops since sustaining an “awful” cut to his foot in the Merseyside derby. Mane played the full match in Sunday’s 1-0 win over Everton at Anfield but subsequently required stitches on an injury he suffered 20 minutes from the final whistle. Robertson, meanwhile, sustained a dead leg in the match and neither player has yet been passed fit for the trip to Turf Moor....

In case you didn’t know… Frenkie de Jong is set to arrive at the Nou Camp this summer. The 21-year-old Dutch wonder kid was on the radar of the Catalan giants for a long time and they splashed €75 million in the January transfer window to secure his services. Due to his maturity on the ball and his rare ability to dictate play, De Jong has garnered attention across Europe. Barcelona are well aware of his potential and will be delighted to have him next season....

“Pollock,” which Harris also directed, is a small-scale biopic dedicated to the epic talent and temper of the American who stole modern art out from under the Europeans. It works best, though, as a story of tortured, but true, love. Krasner is a brash fellow painter who drops by Pollock’s studio to see if his stuff is any good. Pollock is inward and unsocialized. When they wind up in bed, Krasner has to undress him–not as if he’s a lover, but a child....

The Brazil international was hurt in the 14th minute at Anfield on Wednesday, needing treatment after he collided with Napoli forward Hirving Lozano. Fabinho was substituted after initially trying to play on, and Klopp indicated the midfielder will need tests to examine the extent of his injury. “I don’t know. He has pain, so that’s not good,” Klopp told a news conference. “He couldn’t continue, and he is a really hard one....

The Gunners, who had Ainsley Maitland-Niles sent off in the first half, looked to be heading for a sorry home defeat as John McGinn and Wesley scored for Villa either side of Nicolas Pepe’s first goal for the club. Calum Chambers levelled in the 81st minute, though, and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang sealed a dramatic three points with a superb free-kick six minutes from time. That late jubilation was a far cry from the scenes that greeted Xhaka’s removal for Joe Willock earlier in the half, with large numbers of the home faithful audibly expressing their dissatisfaction with the Switzerland international’s display....

While the Packers lost to the Vikings, the New England Patriots won again as Tom Brady reached another milestone, but he was not exactly impressed. Washington Redskins linebacker Zach Brown was brutally honest about a penalty that went in his team’s favour. Jacksonville Jaguars kicker Jason Myers was also sarcastically honest in response to a question about his missed field goals, the New York Jets are not happy about the touchdown that was overturned in the seven-point loss to the Patriots and Arizona Cardinals head coach Bruce Arians loves his veteran players....

The existing cuts have already taken a toll. On Jan. 1, the prestigious Mayo Clinic will stop participating in Medicare in its Jacksonville, Fla., location. Though its clinics in Minnesota and Arizona never accepted Medicare as full payment, the Florida clinic did, in part to cater to the local elderly population. But with more than half its patients on Medicare, the Jacksonville clinic believed it could no longer absorb the payment cuts....

Instead of Special K, Product 19 TRY Whole-grain brands like Cheerios Instead of Cream of Wheat TRY Oatmeal or Kashi Instead of Butter or margarine TRY “Good fats” from olive or canola oils Instead of Alfredo sauce TRY Marinara or tomato-based sauces Instead of Prime rib TRY A leaner tenderloin Instead of Canned veggies TRY Frozen vegetables are lower in salt Instead of Onion and ranch dips TRY Hummus or seasoned low-fat yogurt...

The crabbed arguments against universal coverage – “socialized medicine, passed too fast, government control, waiting lines for care” – come right from the playbook of 1965, when the same retrograde opinion sought to stop President Lyndon Johnson’s plan for the older uninsured. Sen. Bob Dole, then in the House of Representatives, voted against Medicare. Overall, the Republicans split 50-50 while 83 percent of the Democrats said yes. It took Johnson’s forceful persuasion to end the scandal of 19 million elderly lacking broad-based health insurance (private insurers neglected them as too high a risk)....

The result of it is getting the junior Australian cricketers attend the press conference of their senior team skipper Tim Paine. The basic idea was to give the youngsters a peek into how a senior player handles the media and the tough questions. After the ball-tampering scandal, Cricket Australia conducted a cultural review where the win-at-all-costs theory was largely criticised. There have been Australian captains in the past, who had shared frosty relations with the media....

Buffon’s fantastically decorated career is without a Champions League winners’ medal, with losses to Barcelona and Real Madrid in two of the past three finals bitter pills for the goalkeeping great to swallow. But arguably his most acute instance of heartache came at Old Trafford in 2003, when Milan triumphed on penalties after a drab final ended goalless. Buffon saved from Clarence Seedorf and Kakha Kaladze, but failures by David Trezeguet, Marcelo Zalayeta and Paolo Montero meant the Rossoneri prevailed 3-2 on spot-kicks....

At first glance, Handlock plays similarly to other control decks but the card-drawing Life Tap hero power allows them to amass a significant hand advantage early on. Because of its consistency, this deck became a staple of pro tournaments with different iterations surviving various meta changes and Hearthstone expansions over the years. Though classic Handlock may have a less forgiving learning curve than in standard, it can stand toe-to-toe against many aggro or control decks players will face....

The Forged in the Barrens expansion adds new cards to the game and also introduces a new mode called Hearthstone Mercenaries where players can fight in roguelike missions to earn rewards. Some of the new cards include 10 Legendary Mercenary minions whose stories will be revealed as part of expansion gameplay. Two of these Legendary Minions, Blademaster Samuro and Bru’kan, will receive the Diamond skin option, but there are certain tasks players must do in order to obtain them....

Line: Oklahoma City -3, Total: 207 Guard Russell Westbrook is a game-time decision after missing the last 27 games. Oklahoma City more than survived at 20-7 SU and 16-11 ATS over that span, with MVP-favorite Kevin Durant leading the way at 35 points per game. The Thunder (43-12 SU, 32-23 ATS) didn’t need Westbrook when they traveled to South Beach on Jan. 29. Durant scored 33 points, as the team fell behind 22-4 and turned a 30-21 first-quarter deficit into a 112-95 win (as 4-point dogs)....

The source told AFP that Elliott began the legal process of taking control of the seven-time European Champions on Monday, and that a board meeting will be held before the end of the week in which a new board of directors will be nominated. Next week, Milan will then hold a shareholders meeting in which the club’s new structure will be outlined to investors. The Chinese directors currently on the board will be replaced after owner Li Yonghong missed a Friday deadline to repay 32 million euros to Elliott....

The big defenseman took it upon himself to provide it. Hedman scored his first goal of the playoffs and added two assists, and Andrei Vasilevskiy stopped 36 of 38 shots to help the Lightning beat the Washington Capitals 4-2 in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference final Tuesday night and cut their series deficit to 2-1. Hedman had the primary assist on power-play goals by Steven Stamkos and Nikita Kucherov and was a key part of three big penalty kills for Tampa Bay....

The Charismatic Enigma did not waste time taking this to the next level, grabbing a table, and later a ladder in the opening minutes of the match. The Viper was quick to regain offense, blasting Hardy with a steel chair on the spine. Returning to the ring, Hardy was the first to get a two-count, but was countered when he tried to follow up with a Swanton Bomb, but was on the receiving end of a superplex....

It’s an amazing role reversal. Americans dominate the global markets for television, and tend to claim credit for all its creative innovations. But British influence on American TV goes back to the idea for Archie Bunker, the iconic Everyman of the 1970s, and has never been stronger than it is today. Americans invented game shows, true, but it’s the British who are putting real people into ever more sensational games....
