Biden tweeted on Wednesday a message of hope for Americans undergoing the hardships of a global pandemic—now approaching the ninth month in the U.S.—writing that “help is on the way” as he prepares to take the presidential role next month. Noem mocked his message with a quoted phrase, “‘I’m from the government, and I’m here to help,” which then-President Ronald Reagan called “the nine most terrifying words in the English language” during a 1986 news conference....

Kim Yong Chol will head an eight-member delegation to arrive on Sunday for the Games’ closing ceremony – which will also be attended by US President Donald Trump’s daughter Ivanka, creating protocol headaches for Seoul officials. Kim is widely blamed for a spate of attacks against the South including the torpedoing nearly eight years ago of the Seoul’s Cheonan corvette, with the loss of 46 lives. Some 70 lawmakers of the conservative Liberty Korea Party staged a protest outside the presidential Blue House, urging President Moon Jae-in to scrap the visit....

Speaking to the press yesterday, Clyne spoke of being dropped and being linked with a move to one of the top four. He said: It’s the biggest indication that a move from Southampton seems likely in the summer. Let’s not forget that there were clubs in for him last summer and there had been reports of bids around £10m being rejected. You can imagine Southampton will now want at least double that bearing in mind Clyne has forced his way into the England team....

All was well, in other words, until I embarrassed her in front of a bow-tied old Southern gentleman. He (tipsy) and I (more so) had been talking politics when I accidentally let a burp slip out between syllables. The man was kind enough to play it off. “Nice belch,” he said, and I thanked him. My girlfriend was mortified, however. All these well-bred folks at a black-tie reception, she said angrily, and here I was behaving like a subway bum....

All three players are carrying injuries after a 5-0 thumping against the Czech Republic at Wembley got the Three Lions’ Group A campaign off to a flying start. Henderson was expected to make his 50th international appearance in Podgorica but the Liverpool captain could be forced to miss the game with an ankle problem. Southgate suggested he could name an unchanged side from England’s demolition of the Czech Republic but was considering bringing in new faces even before fitness issues threatened to force his hand....

Why wear the NB10 around your neck? Because wearing earbuds all day for video or phone calls can create ear fatigue and discomfort. The NB10 alleviates those things and can handle multiple duties, such as listening to music or talking on conference calls, with up-facing speakers on the left and right sides and two Beamforming microphones. The concept here is solid. The problem is that the neckband doesn’t sound good enough to replace any Bluetooth speaker and isn’t private enough to replace headphones....

The movie’s trailer was released Monday and many thought the NFL would be upset about a movie that appears to assert the league attempted to cover up an epidemic of head injuries. The emails obtained by The New York Times paint an entirely different story, one in which studio heads consulted with the NFL to avoid antagonizing the country’s most powerful sports league. MORE: Preseason Week 3 wrap-up | Brain injury group dislikes NFL’s concussion settlement | Should NFL flag QBs for dangerous throws?...

For those unfamiliar with the term deepfake, it is a method for replacing a person’s likeness and/or voice in an existing image or video with that of another person’s. In the gaming world, this often means something innocuous and entertaining like when a Redditor deepfaked their character in The Division 2 into Chuck Norris. However, in March, a Pennsylvania cheerleader’s mother used the technology to create fake videos of her daughter’s rivals drinking alcohol and vaping in order to get them kicked off the squad....

The Compact packs a smaller screen (no surprise there), but the rest of its specs are impressively close to the bigger version. We’ve tested the phone out ourselves, and here’s what you’ll get when the XZ2 Compact arrives later this year. Price and availability The XZ2 Compact is now on sale in the UK at £529/$499, just £30 more than the XZ1 Compact launched at last year. That’s a decent chunk less than the £699 XZ2, which boasts a bigger screen and a glass back, but mostly the same internal specs....

To some, Sora’s inclusion might seem a little strange as the last character. However, given his character’s massive popularity, Sora’s a perfectly reasonable choice as the last inclusion in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate’s massive roster. If anything, his inclusion is comparatively less strange next to the way he actually plays in-game. In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, Sora occupies a very strange character archetype: An extremely lightweight, combo-focused floaty character, alongside attacks with huge disjoints....

Sora was announced as the last fighter for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate during the last Sakurai Presents.

“I am hearing this for the first time,” Ganguly said, when asked whether he was in contention for the top job. “I don’t want to say anything on this. Let’s not speculate. Don’t jump the gun,” he said. Ganguly, who is the chief secretary of the CAB, has been in regular touch with Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) chief Jagmohan Dalmiya in recent days. But the 42-year-old clarified that his interactions with Dalmiya, who also heads the CAB, are limited to matters involving Bengal cricket....

The news comes after a week that saw the Revs suffer a pair of emphatic defeats, including a 7-0 thrashing against Atlanta United with New England down to nine men. The recent losses effectively took New England out of playoff contention, leaving the Revs seven points behind the sixth-place New York Red Bulls despite having played one more match. Hired after the 2011 season to replace longtime coach Stevie Nicol, Heaps spent six seasons in charge of the Revolution, leading New England to an MLS Cup final in 2014, which the Revs lost to the LA Galaxy in extra time....
