Gallas played for Arsenal for four years and was given the captain’s armband by Wenger during his time at the club. The former Chelsea and Tottenham defender was one of many ex-Arsenal players who paid tribute to Wenger at his final home game as manager against Burnley on Sunday.

In an interview with Cricket Pakistan, Alam revealed that playing first-class cricket puts a player under several pressure situations....

I got a job full-time at Central Washington University as a commercial photographer in the early 2000s. Being paid to create advertising that will sell a product didn’t feel fulfilling for me, so I decided to live a minimalist life and help others. I built a tiny home in the back of an old military trailer which was only six by eight feet. I slept in that small space for five months, until the spring of 2014, when I began paying $600 a month to rent a small room....

While Williams was cheered on by a packed crowd, commentator Chris Evert faced a mixed reception for her commentary during the match. While some criticized her, others appreciated her for her balanced and fair approach.

I live just outside of Basingstoke, England, with my husband Neil, and my cat, and I work as a PR manager for an American tech company, Western Digital. They have been amazing and very supportive since my diagnosis, but it’s a multi-billion dollar company, so work can be pretty stressful. I do a huge amount of exercise—I used to run every lunchtime, and do loads of CrossFit. I’ve run 11 marathons—including the Paris Marathon twice and nine times running the London Marathon....

“I’m afraid to come out of the house sometimes,” Matthew Sease, who lives next door to the property, told CBS46. “I never went by the house because I was afraid of the bees and getting stung.” He continued and said that the hive was first built and started growing daily since the spring.

The fabrications on my résumé, of which I feel great shame, were a handful of accolades—such as being a two-time Tony nominee for two Broadway shows on which I had only been an associate producer, and winning video game awards for projects in which I wasn’t involved. I had also claimed to have received a master’s degree. In earnest, I had pursued a M.A./B.A. track in college and truly believed I had racked up enough graduate credits before commencement to earn the M....

Facing break point at 3-3 in the first set, a ball dropped out of the Frenchman’s pocket mid-point. While umpires are bound to call for a let as soon as they find the hindrance, umpire Miriam Bley, who officiated the match on Thursday, was slow to react. After Chardy hit the net at the end of the rally, Evans was granted the point, securing the break. The umpire decided not to replay the point, however, considering she called for ’let’ only after the rally got finished....

Whilst looking for an apartment to rent in Manhattan, I found a small, 6-foot-wide box room that was going for $1,000. Because of COVID, I wasn’t able to see it in person. At first, the thought of moving there was ridiculous because it was so small. So, I continued searching for other apartments. But the more I kept thinking and comparing prices, the more I kept going back to the tiny apartment that I had seen....

Growing up, I didn’t want to accept my Nigerian heritage because it didn’t feel like it was cool back then. My father is Nigerian and so my mom would show up to parent-teacher conferences or pick me up from school in traditional Nigerian colors and fabrics. At the time, I wished she would just stop, but now those colors, prints and fabrics are in every element of my style. I’m thankful in hindsight that she did that, because it taught me to embrace who I am....

The 55-year-old believes that Kohli should employ the use of an open stance, early on in the innings, when the ball is swinging. The open stance, makes the batter orient himself a little more to the leg-side. The angle of the legs in this stance takes the front leg away from the stumps. This avoids a possible LBW dismissal and gives more room for the bat to fully come down....

While the book received tabloid headlines, few regard Bergin as an authoritative biographer. Bergin himself says that this first book will probably be his last. “I don’t consider myself an author,” he told NEWSWEEK. “Do you?” The book is a collection of photos and banal moments, like the time at 13 Bergin tried–and failed–to lose his virginity. Why did he feel the need to add his unique perspective five years after the couple’s tragic death?...

At first, he was quite coy and didn’t explain who the client was, but as soon as he indicated the location and the breed of dog—nine Pembroke Welsh Corgis who lived at Windsor Castle—I was pretty certain that it was the Queen. Of course, I felt nervous, anxious, and humbled. Shortly after the phone call, I was taken to Her Majesty’s royal residence. I was introduced to her in the castle’s personal family rooms, where she went through my history and checked out my credentials....
