Bahrampour’s book, which covers her travels from Iran to America and back again over roughly two decades, is essentially about the struggle to straddle two cultures. She spent most of her early years in Iran, at international schools attended by the children of foreign diplomats, who hang in cliques and sip imported Hi-C. She could move in this world; her American mother worked at CBS Records in Tehran and knew how to make Halloween costumes....
In case you didn’t know… Rob Van Dam returned to WWE in 2013 on a contract that saw the ECW legend appear on a limited schedule before the parties mutually parted ways one year later. Van Dam has since revealed that a 2016 concussion prevented him from wrestling for WWE, making a return highly unlikely - although he’s always said there is a possibility of a return depending on the terms....
The survey showed a 20-point swing from less than a week ago, showing that voters are split on whether they believe Trump “should be impeached and removed from office” at 47 to 47 percent. In a prior Quinnipiac poll released Wednesday, respondents rejected that idea by 57 to 37 percent. Monday’s poll also found that voters support the House’s formal impeachment inquiry by 52 to 45 percent. The poll showed that when asked whether Trump should be impeached and removed from office, 90 percent of Democrats—a 17-point increase from last week—said yes, while 42 percent of Independents—an 8-point increase—and 7 percent of Republicans—a 3-point increase—agreed....
It wasn’t supposed to be this way. The GOP’s grand plan had Steele winning the Senate race in Maryland, making good on the party’s promise to increase its appeal among black voters. Mehlman has headed that effort, reaching out to black evangelicals in 2004 and apologizing to the NAACP in 2005 for past Republican race-baiting. But despite the endorsement of several local black politicians, who broke ranks to vote for him, Steele lost by 10 points....
The Ghanaian registered a brace - his 10th goal in 12 league starts this season - as the Claret and Blue Army claimed all three points at Villa Park.

Ice-T described Doom Eternal as “virtual cardio” in one tweet because, “You can’t stand STILL in this game,” which he downloaded on March 20 and apparently played for four hours in his first sitting. He says some of the levels are so hard that he does “insane dances” when completing them. However in another tweet the rapper said that while he is enjoying the game, he hates how much jumping the player has to do....
While many iconic novels only have one entry, just as many have spawned sequels, prequels, and spinoffs that expand the universe created by the author. These entries may expand on plot points, continue a character’s journey, or simply be an excuse to return to a beloved world. Nevertheless, sci-fi readers may be excited to learn that some of their favorite novels have new material worth seeking. 6 2001: A Space Odyssey Most people are probably familiar with the legendary 1968 film from director Stanley Kubrick, but sci-fi fans will know that the idea didn’t come fully formed from the mind of Kubrick....
The day an entire nation came crashing down due to the petty words of a stricken Italian. The day Zinedine Zidane walked out contrite from the football field. No event had such a bearing on the World Cup as this one. Build-up A shock defeat to Greece and Zidane had decided to end his international career after Euro 2004. He had achieved everything at the grandest stage of them all and had carried the team for a better part of the decade....
A team of international researchers convened by the World Health Organization (WHO) visited China earlier this year and determined the most likely possibility is that COVID-19 originated naturally. Beijing uses the report, which didn’t draw a definitive conclusion, as an exoneration of the Wuhan Institute of Virology, but the rest of the world isn’t letting the lab off the hook so easily and has pushed China to be more transparent in future studies....
Anfield was the scene of City’s only Premier League defeat this season back in January, when Jurgen Klopp’s side earned a thrilling 4-3 victory after taking advantage of a poor second-half spell for the visitors. However, Guardiola has no plans to tell his players to adopt a more cautious approach in the first leg of their quarter-final tie, although he says he is not “so arrogant” that he is not wary of Liverpool’s attacking threat....
The networks called the Tar Heel State for the senator from Illinois at 7:33 p.m. local time–a mere three minutes after polls closed. No actual returns necessary–just exit polls showing that about 91 percent of the state’s African American voters had backed Obama, who also benefited from a surge of first-time voters. (They represented 18 percent of the day’s turnout and favored him by a vast 68-26 percent.) The only problem?...
The president on Sunday would not confirm he would accept the outcome, prompting a backlash from Democratic lawmakers. What might happen should Trump dispute the results is unclear, with suggestions he would need allies to support him in any action he would wish to take in that instance. Dana R. Fisher, author of the book American Resistance and a professor of sociology at the University of Maryland, told Newsweek she expects a push back from Trump over the outcome would spark demonstrations....
SAIL Academy Burnpur got a couple of easy chances in the opening minutes of the match but failed to convert. Poor finishing from the visiting team was the main reason for not making the breakthrough in the opening quarter of the game. Souvik Ghoshal’s long ranger brushed the crossbar after the goalkeeper got a touch. Sourav Das finally scored the first goal for Mohun Bagan on the 21st minute from a set-piece....

In a letter to Domestic Policy Council Director Susan Rice and Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, Omar and 23 other members of Congress praised Biden’s “commitment to addressing racial injustice and systemic inequity” through an executive order signed in January, which prevented the Department of Justice from renewing federal contracts with private prisons.
