C omedian Jon Stewart and first responder John Feal criticized Sens. Rand Paul of Kentucky and Mike Lee of Utah for temporarily blocking a measure to permanently authorize a Sept. 11 victims compensation fund. "They lack humanity, they lack leadership," Feal claimed in a Wednesday appearance with Stewart on Special Report with Bret Baier . "When we get this bill passed, we beat them again and we are going to walk out and we're going to hold our chins up high and our chests out, and we're going to say we beat Rand Paul and Mike Lee." "Everybody agrees that it's necessary. We're either doing this or not. There's either a need or it's not," Stewart said. "Your budgetary priorities are either moved by a moral compass or they're not. And this is an outrageous place for them to take a stand and cause, once again, pain and heartache and suffering within a community that has felt so much of that over these past few years and is going to be suffering more." Paul said he was "not blocking anything" but was simply trying to find a way to pay for it. "Senator Paul is not blocking anything. He is simply seeking to pay for it. As with any bill, Senator Paul always believes it needs to be paid for. Senator Paul is simply offering an amendment, which other senators support, to pay for this legislation," Paul said in a statement . Not blocking the 9/11 bill - simply asking for a vote on an amendment to offset the cost.   Senator Rand Paul (@RandPaul) July 17, 2019 "Sen. Lee is seeking a vote to ensure the fund has the proper oversight in place to prevent fraud and abuse," a spokesperson for Lee's office said. On Wednesday, Paul forced debate on the compensation fund, bringing the ire of two New York Democrats: Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand. Stewart and Feal have both been outspoken in the support for the fund.


Can you bring the secrets of the world's healthiest regions known as the Blue Zones into your own home? The latest research says yes. Gozei Shinzato begins her day on the island of Okinawa, Japan where she has lived all of her 104 years with an offering to the ancestral shrine in her living room. She spends the rest of her morning in the garden outside her one-room home, hoeing the rocky, red soil. Lunch is a bowl of simple, miso soup, followed by a nap and an afternoon cup of mugwort tea and conversation with her moai , four of her closest friends who have known each other since childhood. A world away, city manager Bob Fagen, 54, bikes across his hometown of Spencer, Iowa. In 2012, Fagen a jovial, bacon-and-eggs kind of guy was diagnosed with kidney failure. His doctor warned him that if he didn't make some dramatic changes in his lifestyle he might not live to see his granddaughters graduate college. So Fagen started eating healthier, homegrown foods; exercising daily; and spending regular, quality time with his family. On the surface, it's tough to see what Bob Fagen and Gozei Shinzato have in common. But both are living a life based on the four core principles of longevity: eat well, stress less, move more, love more. It's a plan that author and journalist Dan Buettner lays out in The Blue Zones Solution , the latest installment in his series started in 2008. Using the lifestyle principles common to areas of the world where people live the longest the so-called Blue Zones Buettner lays out a plan for incorporating the secrets of longevity into everyday life. "At first people are somewhat clueless that it's their lifestyle and their environment making them fat and sick and unhappy," says Buettner. "But these things can be changed, for the better." PAINTING AMERICA BLUE When Buettner and his team first identified the world's Blue Zones Ikaria, Greece; Okinawa, Japan; the Ogliastra region of Sardinia; Loma Linda, California; and the Nicoya Peninsula, Costa Rica they seemed to have no apparent connection, except for an unprecedented number of residents who were 100 years old and older. But after several years of scientific studies and research, it was determined that the prevailing secret to their longevity was a lifestyle built on a foundation of healthy, whole foods; "natural movement" throughout the day (tending gardens, walking the fields, kneading bread, chopping vegetables); and longstanding relationships and daily contact with close family and friends. Buettner and his team set out to see if that lifestyle could be recreated closer to home integrated into an American culture inundated with fast food, a fast-lane mentality and shortcuts to healthy living. For the first community wide U.S. Blue Zone project, Buettner joined with AARP to initiate a large-scale pilot program in Albert Lea, Minnesota, aiming to change how its residents eat, exercise, work and play. It was just the beginning. They identified more towns and cities across the U.S (including Spencer, Iowa, and Redondo Beach, California), solicited municipal support and an army of volunteers, and set to work applying the Blue Zone formula to people's lives. Residents are given incentives to eat healthier in restaurants and buy healthier at supermarkets, and new common areas encourage more walking, biking and other "natural" activities. The project offers up a slew of innovative opportunities for shared community projects, family events and social interactions. The result: Each of the communities has become tangibly healthier. "This Blue Zones thing is a journey," says Bob Fagen, whose hometown is one of the chosen municipalities. "Put it this way. I live in the pork state, and now I actually sort of think kale is cool." For Buettner, the next logical step was bringing the Blue Zones program for longevity directly into people's homes. "We want you to love what you eat, how you spend your day, and the people around you," he says. BUILD ON HEALTHY RITUALS How does it work? Try this on for size: Maybe it's not totally your fault if you're overweight let's blame it on Darwin. For our early ancestors, being a member of the clean-plate-club was truly a matter of life and death. Survival meant consuming any-and-all food in sight whenever you had the chance. Which means that last Ben & Jerry's binge was all about your primal instincts, right? The point is that we've gone from an environment of hardship and scarcity to one of grand abundance and ease. We now have access to virtually limitless amounts of processed foods, sugar and fat all without breaking a sweat. In fact, our physical activity has diminished hugely over time, the result of advanced industry and technology that's made everything happen with the push of a button or a ride in the car. All of which means that it's not only what you eat that matters; it's understanding how your daily diet helps drive healthier living habits in all facets of your lifestyle, including your daily activity, home life and sense of community. "Every time we take a bite," says Buettner, "we vote for the world we want to inhabit: Are we supporting a system that favors a healthy climate and environment or are we helping to pollute our surroundings?" Lifelong Blue Zone inhabitants have answered that question by creating rituals around their food - and the process of growing, preparing, serving and eating every meal is what ultimately brings families, homes and communities together. Consider this Blue Zones checklist of ways you can start to build a better life around your food habits: • Breakfast Like a King: Stick to three meals a day: big breakfast, medium lunch, and a light, early dinner. • Cook at Home: You're in charge of the ingredients and between standing, chopping, stirring and serving, you're nudged into action. • Hara Hachi Bu: A 2,500-year-old Confucian adage that means stop eating when you're 80 percent full. Slow down, be present and savor your meal. • Fast Fasts: Schedule mealtimes during eight hours of the day and consume about half your daily calories at breakfast. • Eat with Friends and Family: Sharing stories and conversation help you bond as a family and slow down the meal so you're less likely to overeat. • Celebrate and Enjoy Food: We eat about 1,100 meals a year you've got room for a slice of pie and some mac 'n' cheese. Strike a healthy balance, and don't let your ancestors' gene pool prompt you to overindulge. • Go Wholly Whole  Simply put, a whole food is one made of a single ingredient (raw, cooked, ground or fermented) and not highly processed. MOVE THROUGH YOUR DAY It's imperative to align these healthy eating rituals with an environment in your home that encourages ongoing, natural movement. Translation: Where you eat and with whom you eat is just as important as what goes into your mouth. Statistics show that the average American sits 9.6 hours a day. After 90 minutes of being sedentary, your body goes into a hibernation state. When that happens, your final meal of the day is a lot more likely to end up around your waist, rather than boosting energy levels. But Blue Zone residents create an environment where they're constantly nudged into physical activity every 10-15 minutes whether it's gardening, food prep, cleaning, walking or getting up (off the floor or a seat). These little prompts accumulate through the day and ultimately count more toward keeping your weight down and your energy up than spending an hour at the gym after work. It's certainly not an argument against exercising. But consider creating a home environment that keeps you on your feet literally by encouraging natural movement through the day, and promoting healthy heart, fat-burning blood chemistry that keeps you sharper and more energetic. A few suggestions: • Have only one TV in your home. Watching television lowers your metabolism, discourages activity and encourages eating. • Replace your power tools with hand tools wherever possible. • Start a garden, or maintain one you have yourself. A garden provides a setting for low-intensity exercise and keeps your cooking ingredients fresh. • Own a dog . Research says a dog can add five hours of exercise to your routine every week. • Ride a bike. At a moderate speed, you'll burn 235 calories per half-hour. • Create a "family destination" room. Think lots of light, bookshelves, a big table for family projects and no computer, TV or clocks. A BLUEPRINT FOR LONGEVITY Once you've looked at your diet and eating rituals, and thought about how you can activate your home and environment, the next important piece to add to your longevity plan is to make sure you're interacting more with friends and family. According to the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, loneliness can be as bad for you as smoking; data from Gallup-Healthways polls indicate that the happiest people socialize at least eight hours a day. Start by assessing the quality of the important relationships in your life. Are your friends encouraging a longer, better life? Do they actively support your well-being? Do they smoke or drink; cook at home or eat junk food; listen as well as talk; and are they curious about the world? Nobody's suggesting that you cut off old pals. But you can start to cultivate new connections by looking for people who are already practicing some of the healthier habits you want to develop. It all comes down to a simple and empowering message: As Blue Zone residents around the world have proven, we can control our own health and longevity. "It's not a silver bullet," says Buettner. "It's silver buckshot: a healthy swarm of small things that add up to a huge impact."


Editor's note: The opinions in this article are the author's, as published by our content partner, and do not necessarily represent the views of MSN or Microsoft. Ross Ramsey is the executive editor and co-founder of the Texas Tribune. Add my hometown of El Paso to the list that, in Texas alone, includes Sutherland Springs and Santa Fe   places where people were shot where they went to pray, shop and go to school. I can't think of another situation where we would not do something together about wolves roving among us. This has been going on long enough for what seems like every American to have a local version, and new locations   Hello, Dayton   are added quickly. The wolves are everywhere, as much a seemingly accepted part of modern life as automobile deaths and opioid overdoses   dangers with solutions apparently beyond the political skills of the people we elect to office. Running for office seems to erase reason from the smart and capable characters we send to places such as Austin and Washington. They forget about the wolves. The alleged El Paso shooter   after just hours, he was no longer the "latest" shooter   appears on first impression to be a loser enthralled by racist hate, emboldened by crass public officials and outfitted by toothless gun laws that don't make sense to anyone outside of our American cultural bubble. Subscribe to the Post Most newsletter: Today's most popular stories on The Washington Post If we decided that every misanthrope in the nation should be armed and dangerous, we could do it with the gun laws we already have. Texas is an open-carry state, where anyone with an easily obtained state license can walk around like the lead in a Quentin Tarantino movie. For long guns, no license is required. Guns are part of Texas lore and remain a leg of the partisan iconography after years of "God, guns and gays" political campaigns that worshiped the first, bowed to the second and cursed the third. It was mostly Republican but not entirely. On the first day of dove-hunting season in 1994, then-Gov. Ann Richards (D) and her opponent, Republican George W. Bush, took crews of political reporters out to watch them shoot birds . She missed three times, but the results were more embarrassing for Bush, who shot a killdeer instead of a dove. The candidate is supposed to know how to handle a gun, and Bush did okay with that. But it cost him $130 for shooting the wrong kind of bird. Voters didn't mind. He had his mythology right, as did Richards, though she did lose the election. A quarter-century later, the current class of Texas politicians handles things a bit differently   like when Sen. Ted Cruz cooked " machine-gun bacon " in a campaign video by wrapping it around the barrel of a gun, firing the gun for a few minutes and then eating the bacon. Or in the way lawmakers and Gov. Greg Abbott (R) steered the conversation toward mental-health issues and away from gun control issues after last year's shootings in Sutherland Springs and in Santa Fe. Attention to mental health is sorely lacking in Texas. Devoting more money and attention to that ought to be a bipartisan idea. "Red-flag" laws seem like a great idea every time there's a new mass murder, and voters happen to think it's a good idea , too: Why not take guns away   temporarily, even   from people who are exhibiting signs that they shouldn't have access to deadly weapons? Like the man who, police say, walked into the El Paso Walmart on Saturday, shooting nearly four dozen weekend shoppers, killing 20. But Texas lawmakers haven't been willing to enact a red-flag law. In May 2018, Abbott was open to the idea . "Properly designed, emergency risk protective orders could identify those intent on violence from firearms, but in a way that preserves fundamental rights under the Second Amendment," he wrote in a paper on school safety . He backed off pretty rapidly, saying it was just something to consider   not something he was endorsing. Several weeks later, Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick dispatched the idea . "Regarding the topic of 'red flag' laws, which was discussed today in the select committee, I have never supported these policies, nor has the majority of the Texas Senate," Patrick said after a hearing on the subject. The shootings appall those lawmakers, but so do the solutions. Meanwhile, the wolves are roving, and we're not doing a lot to keep the predators at bay. Read more: E.J.

Manchester United have apparently added Norwich sporting director Stuart Webber to their list of candidates for a new director of football role at the club. Following another season of dysfunction and inconsistency at Old Trafford, United's executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward is set to put the club through a restructure behind the scenes this summer with a particular focus on recruitment. There have been a number of high-profile flops arriving at the club in recent seasons and Woodward is said to be keen not only to improve the quality coming of the side but also to change strategy, with recruitment focus on younger players. Among the many names already linked with the job, The Sun claims United have now added Webber to their list of potential candidates. Webber is said to have his fair share of admirers at Old Trafford having previously helped steer both Huddersfield Town and, more recently, Norwich City to the Premier League . In his recent stint with Norwich, Webber placed emphasis on using players from the club's academy and helped ease the likes of Angus Gunn and James Maddison into the first team fold during his time with the club, with the pair now regularly featuring in the Premier League. It's now believed that United wish to take a similar approach in the seasons to come, and the new strategy already appears to have taken effect given their recent interest in signing Swansea City's 21-year-old youngster Daniel James - as opposed to a ready-made 'name' signing. Previous reports have claimed United are looking to ape Liverpool's transfer committee model and could look to appoint several of the club's old boys, including Rio Ferdinand and Darren Fletcher to help advise on signings. However, rather than the Webber report coming in contrast to those claims, The Sun suggests rather that the Norwich City chief is a name in the frame to 'oversee' that system.


NEW YORK   After Eric Garner died following a confrontation with New York City police five years ago, one officer involved in the struggle wrote up paperwork that exaggerated the seriousness of the dead man's suspected crime, according to testimony Tuesday. Officer Justin Damico testified that after riding in an ambulance with the dying Garner, he went ahead on his own and filled out arrest papers listing a felony tax charge that would've required prosecutors to prove Garner, a small-time street hustler, had sold 10,000 untaxed cigarettes. Damico spoke at the police department disciplinary trial for Daniel Pantaleo, the officer accused of placing Garner in a banned chokehold as they attempted to arrest him for selling loose, untaxed cigarettes near a Staten Island park in July 2014. "You initiated this on your own, writing up the arrest of a dead man?" asked Suzanne O'Hare, a lawyer for the police watchdog agency bringing the disciplinary case. Damico acknowledged that the felony charge was incorrect because Garner actually had with him five packs of Newports that contained a total of less than 100 cigarettes. The cigarettes were marked for sale in Virginia, a telltale sign that they were being resold illegally in New York. Garner was ultimately charged with two misdemeanors, which alleged that he resisted arrest and sold untaxed cigarettes. The case was not prosecuted because Garner died. The confrontation with Garner was partially caught on a bystander's cellphone video, ending with Pantaleo grabbing Garner and pulling him to the ground. Garner's dying pleas of "I can't breathe" became a rallying cry against police brutality. Pantaleo, 33, denies wrongdoing. He has been on desk duty since Garner's death. Testifying for more than an hour Tuesday, Damico told a nearly full hearing room at police headquarters that he'd given an agitated Garner a warning two weeks before the confrontation. Damico said he and Pantaleo allowed Garner to vent for about 10 minutes before moving to arrest him because they were reluctant to use physical force. And he testified that he did see Pantaleo's arm around Garner's neck as the two men struggled   but he didn't say if he thought the move was a chokehold. Until Tuesday, Damico had never spoken publicly about the case. Damico testified that he and Pantaleo tried to be patient as Garner screamed that he was tired of continually being harassed by police. They stayed calm even as Garner swatted Damico's hands away and refused to be arrested. Damico and Pantaleo "utilized textbook de-escalation techniques to limit the use of force against a much larger and irate individual," said Pat Lynch, the president of the union representing officers, the Police Benevolent Association. "We are convinced that if the politics of the streets are removed from this process and the case is decided on a dispassionate hearing of the facts, that Police Officer Pantaleo will be exonerated," Lynch said. The NYPD's disciplinary process plays out like a trial in front of an administrative judge. Normally the purpose is to determine whether an officer violated department rules, but that's only if disciplinary charges are filed within 18 months of an incident. Because Pantaleo's case languished, the watchdog Civilian Complaint Review Board must show that his actions rose to the level of criminal conduct, even though he faces no criminal charges and is being tried in a department tribunal, not a criminal court. The final decision on any punishment lies with the police commissioner. Penalties range from the loss of vacation days to firing. The disciplinary hearing is scheduled to resume June 5. Pantaleo's lawyers say they will call a medical examiner from St. Louis to rebut the New York medical examiner's finding that a chokehold set into motion "a lethal sequence of events" for Garner. Garner's family said it's tired of the delays. ___ This story has been corrected to show that the last name of the officer who testified is Damico, not D'Amico.


Be sure to watch this week's edition of Eamon's Corner. There used to be something in golf called a U.S. Open player. These golfers had much in common but mostly they had attitude. That is often the difference in golf's most demanding major test. A few of them were just plain mean. But all of them had grit. The U.S. Open has changed. But the players have changed, too. The Open that was once associated with tough guys who took care of their business is now more associated with players who start blubbering about how the USGA will surely screwed things up long before the tournament even begins. We all know the USGA has deserved its share of black eyes. But when the whining starts weeks in advance, it makes you wonder if those players are focused on winning a major or laying the groundwork for excuses when they fall short. https://compass.pressekompass.net/compasses/golfweek/how-much-would-you-pay-to-play-pebble-be MORE: LeBron says Warriors part owner should be held accountable for shoving Kyle Lowry Marlins and Brewers Get Into Twitter Battle Over Christian Yelich Cowboys News: Michael Gallup leg injury dampens final OTA session These five upcoming NBA free agents helped themselves in the playoffs Desmond Harrison's missed flight to minicamp was final straw for Browns


Kia has been selling the second-generation Cadenza full-size sedan in the US since 2017. Usually after three model years, automakers will update a vehicle to keep it fresh in the marketplace without having to spend hundreds of millions of dollars on a complete redesign. Model year 2020 would mark the Cadenza's fourth spin around the sun, which means Kia's Toyota Avalon competitor is due for a refresh. Now we have an idea of how that refresh may appear. On its Korean-market Facebook page this week, Kia released an assortment of teaser sketches for the K7 , which is what the Cadenza is called in its home market. If the updated Cadenza looks only half as good as the car in these sketches, it will be a marked improvement over the current car. Right now, the Cadenza looks like a plain sedan that's wearing a lot of makeup. These social media images show a car that exhibits more natural beauty, like the Cadenza's head-turning rear-wheel-drive sibling, the Kia Stinger. The interior sketches show what appears to be a major leap forward in in-cabin tech compared with the current car, which has a nice interior, but tired-looking electronics. The Facebook post doesn't provide any information on powertrain or tech updates. It wouldn't be crazy to assume, though, that the 2020 Cadenza would continue to use a 3.3-liter V6 with 290 horsepower and 253 pound-feet of torque, which would send power to the front wheels via an eight-speed automatic transmission. We've reached out to Kia to get more details about the updated 2020 Cadenza, and to find out whether the automaker even plans to bring the refreshed full-size sedan to the US. In response to Roadshow, a Kia spokesperson was unable to provide comment on future product, but added that Kia has "great Cadenza news coming soon."

Pass interference is already seemingly flagged inconsistently - and now it will fall under replay review. On Thursday, the NFL announced on its league operations Twitter page that the Competition Committee "unanimously recommended" the new rule for instant replay of pass interference but stressed that it will be for 2019 only. In a short text video that was part of the tweet, the language of the rule was explained: "The replay official will stop the game after the two-minute warning of each half and during OT; when there is 'clear and obvious visual evidence' that a pass interference foul may or may not have occurred, based on viewing the play live or any initial replays. "A stoppage will occur under stricter criteria than for other reviewable plays to prevent excessive game stoppages. "A decision on the field will only be reversed: Based on 'clear and obvious visual evidence' that the ruling was incorrect, the same standard for all reviews. This is wholly dependent on video angles shown by broadcast networks. "By rule, pass interference requires: An act that 'significantly hinders' an opponent's opportunity to make a play on the ball. All passing plays will be subject to review for pass interference. "The 'Hail Mary' play will be reviewed in replay consistent with the guidelines for officiating the play on the field." The rule change to allow PI to be reviewable was, of course, pushed for by the New Orleans Saints after what happened in the NFC Championship game in January. Los Angeles Rams cornerback Nickell Robey-Coleman committed what appeared to have been obvious defensive pass interference on receiver Tommylee Lewis, but there was no flag. Team owner Gayle Benson openly lobbied for the change , and was pleased when it was first approved in March. More from Yahoo Sports: NBA mock draft 5.0: What will Pelicans do?

NEW YORK   In a story June 4 about a car crash involving the comedian Tracy Morgan, The Associated Press erroneously reported the gender of the other driver. The driver was a woman, not a man. A corrected version of the story is below: Tracy Morgan involved in NYC fender bender in his Bugatti Comedian Tracy Morgan was involved in a minor traffic crash while driving his 2019 Bugatti in midtown Manhattan NEW YORK   Comedian Tracy Morgan was involved in a minor traffic crash while driving his 2019 Bugatti in midtown Manhattan. Police say the fender bender happened Tuesday afternoon near Tenth Avenue and 42nd Street. Police say the mishap involved the 50-year-old Morgan and his white Bugatti, reportedly worth around $2 million, and a 61-year-old woman driving a Honda CR-V. A representative for Morgan says the comedian bought the vehicle an hour before the minor crash. Police say both vehicles sustained minor damage and all parties refused medical attention, although photos of the scene show Morgan sitting in an ambulance. In 2014, the former "30 Rock" and "Saturday Night Live" star suffered severe head trauma when a truck slammed into the back of the limo van he was riding in. Comedian James McNair, his friend and collaborator, was killed.


McLaren Formula 1 team boss Andreas Seidl says that his team needs to know the detail of the 2021 regulations sooner rather than later so it can adjust its structure to suit. Most discussion of the timing of the release of the regulations has revolved around whether an early start on R&D for 2021 would favour the established top teams, or those in the chasing pack. Read Also: Brown: McLaren in "total clarity" now that Seidl is here Brown starting to see hints of Mercedes-like qualities in McLaren Seidl says it's more a question of the bigger picture of what impact the rules have on the shape of the team. "If you're up against the best ones in this sport like Mercedes or Ferrari it doesn't matter when they start or we start," Seidl said. "We are happy with whatever the outcome is. "It's more important to have clarity of what we get, so we can start thinking how it affects the structure of the team, and I can start making up my mind how the team should look like. "But I'm happy with both ways, if the regs come now or later. It doesn't change anything. In the end it's like every year, you have to make your mind up how long you develop the current car, when you start with next year's car, when you start the basic concept of the car the year after. So it's nothing new. "In the end for us it is more important to have the rules to know where we have to head to, so that we can also make up our mind in how we want to shape the team in the future, in order to be ready for the 2021 regulations. That is the main topic for us." Seidl says he has confidence in the system that is refining the rules: "There are very experienced guys working on it on the FOM and FIA side, Ross [Brawn] and all these guys, we have full trust that in the end they know what is important to achieve for 2021 and this is what we are waiting for now. "We have a good dialogue with them now, so it is important that they have this dialogue with us, that all the teams do consulting work for F1 and the FIA, but at the same time with every team having their own agenda it is simply important that in the end they make their conclusions and broadcast the regulations, and we have to go with it."


ST. CLAIR SHORES (WWJ) - Emergency responders were called out to recuse a driver who, along with her vehicle, ended up in the water at a Lake St. Clair. marina. No one was injured in the incident a little after noon on Thursday at Colony Marine along Jefferson Ave. between 9 and 10 Mile Roads in St. Clair Shores. St. Clair Shores said the woman was driving near the canals when she lost control of her car, then driving into a into a hoist well. St. Clair Shores police and the Macomb County Sheriff's Marine Division and tow trucks came to the scene to assist; successfully pulling both the woman and her car out of the water. Asked if she was distracted or why else she may have lost control of her vehicle, police told WWJ Newsradio 950's Jon Hewett's she apparently "became confused." The woman's name was not released.


Max Scherzer won't even let a broken nose keep him from taking the mound. The three-time Cy Young Award winner made his scheduled start on Wednesday despite breaking his nose the day before. Scherzer was practicing bunting during the Washington Nationals' batting practice on Tuesday and a ball deflected off his bat and hit him in the face. He ended up with a broken nose but apparently is well enough to pitch. He made a start in the second game of a doubleheader between his Nationals and the Philadelphia Phillies, and was his usual dominant self early in the game, throwing four scoreless innings.

Chelsea have officially unveiled their new away kit for the 2019/20 season, with a white collared shirt inspired by the Mod culture of the 1960s. In a press release, the club revealed: "Chelsea Football Club will celebrate London's fashion history each time its teams play away this season. The new away kit is inspired by the Mod culture that thrived on the King's Road, a short walk from Stamford Bridge, in the 1960s. Inspired by Mod culture, which thrived in 1960s south-west London, our 2019/20 Nike away kit is here!  It's a sharp look. It's a Chelsea thing.

This collar is trimmed with red and blue stripes and is fastened in the centre by two buttons, each inscribed with the phrase: 'The Pride of London.' Speaking upon the announcement of the new jersey, Chelsea Women forward Frank Kirby declared: "The kit is really beautiful, with so many nice touches. I know a little bit about Mod fashion and culture and you can see its influence on the kit. I think it's a shirt you could wear to the game, but also in any situation, and I'm sure the fans will like it." Ethan Ampadu, who has been linked with a loan move for the 2019/20 season, was also featured prominently in the campaign. The statement then continued: "The jersey's sleeves are also trimmed with red and blue, while the head-to-toe look is completed by white shorts and Chelsea blue socks. The socks boast a stripe   white, red, white   midway up the calf, which evokes memories of the famous Mod target symbol."  | Chelsea's new away kit is inspired by the Mod culture that thrived on the King's Road, a short walk from Stamford Bridge, in the 1960s. pic.twitter.com/TuMJ0f9liU   Box2Box Football (@_box2box) July 17, 2019 And, speaking on the design, Pete Hoppins, who is Nike's Football Apparel Senior Design Director, explained: "The concept we came up with is a homage to the Mods of 1960s London and their sharp style.

Former Kentucky star and New York Giants quarterback Jared Lorenzen passed away Wednesday. The "Hefty Lefty" as he was affectionately known had been admitted to a hospital over the weekend after suffering an infection that affected his kidney and heart. Doctors attempted dialysis but were unable to save Lorenzen, who was 38. "It is with heavy hearts that the family of Jared Lorenzen, would like to extend our sincere thanks and appreciation for all of your support and prayers over the past 6 days," the family said in a statement. "We are deeply saddened to announce the passing of Jared today, July 3, 2019." "Again, we appreciate all of the warm wishes and prayers but as a family we would request your respect and privacy." "I lost my sweet boy today after a long hard fight," Jared's mother, Janet, said in a text to ESPN. Lorenzen played four seasons at Kentucky from 2000-03. He threw for 10,354 yards and 78 touchdowns. Despite his college success, he went undrafted. The lefty signed with the New York Giants and remained with them from 2004-07. He played in four games, completing 4-of-8 passes for 28 yards as a backup. Lorenzen earned a Super Bowl ring when the Giants defeated the Patriots in Super Bowl XLII.

He battled weight issues throughout and gained 200 pounds after his playing career. In August 2017, Lorenzen, who was affectionately known as "The Hefty Lefty," announced he would be chronicling his weight-loss journey through "The Jared Lorenzen Project." He shared his story of avoiding the scale for eight years only to learn he had gained 200 pounds since his playing days in the NFL. Lorenzen lost 100 pounds, telling For The Win, he lost 70 pounds in the first six weeks. People reacted to his death. Without a shadow of a doubt Jared Lorenzen was one of the nicest most genuine people I had the opportunity to meet during my 15 years doing Barstool. They'll never be another guy like him. He'll be missed by everybody he touched.

Former West Virginia wide receiver Marcus Simms was one of two players considered likely candidates for selection in Wednesday's supplemental draft, but the exercise ended with safety Jalen Thompson as the only player picked . It appears Simms will still get a chance to make an NFL roster this year, however. Tom Pelissero of NFL Media reports that Simms had several offers and is set to sign with the Jaguars. Simms will need to pass a physical before the deal is finalized. Simms caught 81 passes for 1,362 yards and seven touchdowns over the last two years for the Mountaineers. He also served as a kickoff and punt returner. He also had off-field issues while in school, including a pair of DUIs and reported issues with the coaching staff that helped nudge him from the college ranks to the pros this summer. The Jaguars also added Terrelle Pryor to the receiving corps late in the offseason and the two newcomers join Keelan Cole , Chris Conley , Marqise Lee and Dede Westbrook on the depth chart.

Paris Saint-Germain have vowed to take action after Neymar failed to report to pre-season training, the club announced on Monday, though the player's father claims the Parisian side were made aware of the delay a year ago. The Ligue 1 champions said they had previously reached an agreement on where and when Neymar would report to training, and the Brazil star failed to arrive while not receiving authorisation for his absence. As a result the 27-year-old star, who missed the Copa America with Brazil due to injury, faces a rebuke and possible disciplinary action from PSG, who, in a statement, "deplores this situation". An official note reads : "This Monday, July 8, Neymar da Silva Santos Junior was summoned for the resumption of activities of the professional group of Paris Saint-Germain. "Paris Saint-Germain found that the player Neymar Jr did not show up at the agreed time and place, without having been authorized by the Club in advance. "Paris Saint-Germain deplores this situation and will take the appropriate measures resulting from it." Hours later, Neymar Sr. spoke to Fox Brazil , stating that the club knew a year ago that he would not return until July 15 due to commitments with his foundation, Instituto Neymar. "The reason [for the delay] is known," he said. "It was scheduled a year ago, with Instituto Neymar, and we couldn't change it. He will be there on 15th [of July]. Simple as that, no big deal. PSG is aware and participate in Instituto Neymar activities." The drama is the latest in a tumultuous summer for the Brazil star as talk of a possible exit from the Ligue 1 champions has grown louder. In June, PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi had choice words for Neymar , declaring "nobody forced him to sign" with the club for a world-record €222 million (£200m/$262m) fee in 2017. Al-Khelaifi added that he wanted "players willing to give everything to defend the honour of the jersey and to join the club project", further fueling talk Neymar could be headed for a summer exit after the PSG president had declared "nothing and nobody is bigger than the club" in May . Neymar, who remains signed through to 2022, has been heavily linked with a La Liga return, either with Real Madrid or a reunion with Barcelona, with Goal previously reporting he remains a top target for the Catalan club . However, when asked about the Neymar situation last week during the presentation of new signing Frenkie de Jong, Barca president Josep Maria Bartomeu appeared to admit defeat in the club's attempts to re-sign the attacker, citing a PSG's reluctance to sell despite the player's desire to leave. "We know that [Neymar] wants to leave PSG, we know that, but we also know PSG do not want him to go. There is no way," Bartomeu said at a press conference July 5 . When healthy, Neymar's two seasons have been productive as he has scored 34 goals and added 20 assists in 37 Ligue 1 games for the club. But injuries have been an issue, with a broken foot in both seasons causing him to miss extended time, including the second leg of the Champions League last-16 against Real Madrid in 2018 and the entire tie in the same round against Manchester United in 2019. PSG went on to lose both ties, continuing European struggles that have dampened domestic dominance that has seen the club capture six of the past seven Ligue 1 titles. Neymar recovered from injury in time for the Copa America, but a subsequent ankle injury sidelined him for the tournament, as Brazil went on to break a 12-year drought in competition, defeating Peru on Sunday to claim the title in his absence.


Lionel Messi has said he finished the season 'frustrated' after Barcelona squandered the chance of claiming an historic treble with two damaging defeats in the final few weeks of the season. It was another memorable individual campaign for the 31-year-old, having netted 51 goals across all competitions, making him the highest goalscorer in both La Liga and the Champions League this term. #MessiEnEF : "Terminé la temporada más cansado y frustrado desde la cabeza que desde lo físico por lo que pasó en los últimos quince días". pic.twitter.com/2pV9KuPxwP   TyC Sports (@TyCSports) June 5, 2019 However, having led Liverpool 3-0 in the Champions League semi finals, Ernesto Valverde's side slumped to a 4-0 second leg defeat to crash out of the competition, before succumbing to a 2-1 defeat against Valencia in the Copa del Rey final 18 days later. Barcelona still managed to claim another La Liga crown this season, although Messi confessed the disappointing end to the season left the Argentine feeling drained at the club's failed trophy attempts. "I finished the season more tired and frustrated mentally than physically after what happened in the last 15 days, especially the Champions League exit," he told La Pulga, as relayed by Marca . "Physically I had to rest, I played less than I did in other years." Barcelona 's talisman has the opportunity to put his club worries to one side this summer, after linking up with Argentina as they prepare for this summer's Copa America. Messi is yet to lift a trophy with his nation, having lost two Copa America finals and one World Cup final. He said of the upcoming tournament: "We're going into it with the same excitement and hunger as always, but the reality is that Argentina are going through a period of transition. "We are contenders, like before. We're not contenders from the start, unlike before, but we're going to try and win the Copa America."


The PGA Tour is packing up and moving on to Dublin, Ohio for the 2019 Memorial Tournament at Muirfield Village. Jack's place boasts a diverse group of past winners including Bryson DeChambeau, Jason Dufner and Will McGirt, proving you don't need to hit it a mile to win around this place. Tiger Woods is back in action for just the second time since the Masters victory and looking to put a rough week at Bethpage Black behind him with another strong Muirfield showing. Here are my top 20 fantasy picks for the 2019 Memorial Tournament. 20. Kevin Na: Worth a shot after his dominant win at Colonial, and he does have a runner-up finish here in 2014. 19. Phil Mickelson: Hasn't missed a cut at Muirfield since 1998 and owns three top-10s in 17 starts, though the game hasn't been nearly as sharp since his Pebble Beach Pro-am win in February. 18. Henrik Stenson: Finished T-13 in this event last year and game has been consistent all season long. 17. Adam Scott: Coming off a strong T-8 showing at the Players Championship and has had some success at Muirfield, with three top-10s in 11 career starts. 16. Jim Furyk: The 2002 Memorial champ ended a streak of three missed cuts and got back into contention with a T-13 finish last week at Colonial. 15. Gary Woodland: Has played well here in the past, including a T-4 finish in 2016, and posted a solid T-8 at the PGA Championship. 14. Marc Leishman: Stuck in a bit of a funk, but Muirfield has always been a safe haven for Leishman with three top-15 finishes in his last four starts. 13. Bryson DeChambeau: The defending champ is coming off three consecutive missed cuts, his worst stretch in nearly two years. 12. Hideki Matsuyama: Won here in 2014 and was T-13 a year ago. Started to putt better at Bethpage and hung around until the end. 11. Jordan Spieth: Showing very promising signs the past two weeks as the worst of Spieth's slump looks to be behind him. 10. Xander Schauffele: Coming off a surprising missed cut at the Charles Schwab Challenge, but no reason to fade him this week even with the strong field. 9. Jason Day: The Ohio resident hasn't played that great here in the past, but he knows Muirfield and has looked solid ever since the T-5 Masters showing. 8. Matt Kuchar: Owns this place with a win in 2013 and a remarkable streak of 10 top-15 finishes in his last 11 Memorial starts. 7. Tony Finau: Yet another runner-up finish for Finau last week, who has been T-13 or better in three of four appearances at Muirfield. 6. Justin Thomas: Back in action for the first time since the Masters after missing the PGA Championship due to a wrist injury. Should be a smooth transition at a place where he's gone T-8, T-4 in his last two starts. 5. Patrick Cantlay: Maybe the hottest player in the game after going T-3 at the PGA Championship and T-9 at the Masters. Also finished solo fourth here last year. 4. Tiger Woods: Five-time Memorial champion hit it great around here last year but couldn't make any putts. Should be more than ready after a rough PGA Championship week. 3. Justin Rose: Has a handful of strong Memorial showings, including a win in 2010, so this should be a good week for Rose to get back into form. 2. Rickie Fowler: Finished T-8, T-2 in his last two Memorial outings and we're not concerned about the missed cut at Colonial. 1. Rory McIlroy: Four top-10s in seven career starts at Muirfield and has been playing at an elite level all season long. https://compass.pressekompass.net/compasses/golfweek/tiger-woods-has-15-majors-will-he-pass-j MORE: Kevin Na gives caddie awesome present right after PGA Tour win: 'That's your car!'

Plenty of sun and sand, but plenty more too. Key West is not just some Florida beach town. It is absolutely packed with history: Presidents have lived here, wars have been fought here, and one of civilization's most prolific writers took pen to paper here (and left behind a beautiful home to visit). If that's not enough for you, the area boasts expectedly a few great beaches, and perhaps unexpectedly state and national parks with crowds that are delightfully sparse. The sportfishing off Key West is also world-renowned (while we can't promise you'll catch a big one...you'll catch a big one). In case it wasn't clear already, a trip to the southernmost part of the continental United States will never leave you bored. Harry S. Truman Little White House Zoom out. What's this place all about? The historic Harry S. Truman Little White House is famously where Truman spent 175 days of his presidency. Before that, the building served as a naval station's command headquarters during the Spanish-American War. Ye shall know them by their permanent collection: How was it? The house has been restored as it was in 1949, showcasing well-preserved rooms where the Trumans lived, worked, and relaxed during their time in Key West. Who is this place best for? This is a great stop for history buffs, but it might fly over the head of kids under 12 or so. Any guided tours worth trying? The house is open 365 days a year. Tours, which are included in the admission, offer additional insight into Truman's presidency, as well as Key West's role in the Cold War and naval history. John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park Let's start big picture. What's the vibe here? The first undersea park in the United States, John Pennekamp State Park spans nearly 200 nautical miles of reefs, mangroves, and other untouched marine habitats. Most visitors come to dive or snorkel, but glass-bottomed boat tours are available, too. Any standout features or must-sees? Take a SCUBA trip to get close to Carysfort Reef, which not many dive trips visit. Got it. Was it easy to get around? Because the park is all water, it's best to come with a plan for an activity, whether that be renting kayaks or paddle boards or taking a boat trip. That sounds cool. Are there any other things visitors have to keep in mind? This is an all-day affair; the reefs are around eight miles offshore and accessible only by boat. Key West Lighthouse & Keeper's Quarters Zoom out. What's this place all about? The Key West Lighthouse & Museum grants the public access to Key West's iconic historic lighthouse or at least any members of the public ready to climb those stairs. And what are we here to see? The Keeper's Quarters museum adjacent to the lighthouse is home to historical memorabilia chronicling the lighthouse's history, as well as the history of Key West. Sounds good. Is there anything else we can find with a little extra effort? You'll have to climb 88 steps to reach the top of the lighthouse; once you do, though, you'll be rewarded with expansive, sweeping views of the area. On the practical tip, how were the facilities? The lighthouse itself isn't accessible to those with reduced mobility; the Keeper's Quarters have just a few small stairs to navigate. But note that neither are wheelchair accessible. Any guided tours worth trying? The lighthouse features as a stop on the town's broader historic marker tour, which is an ideal way to learn about the history of Key West. Any advice for the time- or attention-challenged? If you're pressed for time, shimmy up the stairs and take in a few Instagram-worthy views from the top. The Ernest Hemingway Home & Museum Zoom out. What's this place all about? The Hemingway House, one of Key West's most popular spots, was once the home of the celebrated American author, who lived here for more than a decade. You can wander around the largely preserved rooms and tour the lush, lovely gardens. Once we're through the door, what are we here to see? The home is filled with Hemingway memorabilia photos, books, and furniture that played a part in his South Florida life. What did you make of the crowd? The crowd is a mix of solemn literary lovers and regular ol' tourists. On the practical tip, how were the facilities? Easy to get around? Any limitations? The house has stairs, as do many of the porches, but the gardens are accessible. Any guided tours worth trying? Definitely. Guided tours are led by Key West locals who are just as quirky as the esteemed writer himself. Anything worth snagging in the gift shop? The gift shop is filled with copies of every Hemingway title imaginable, many of which are special editions to the house. Any advice for the time- or attention-challenged? Tours are quick, but you can spend hours relaxing in the gardens and enjoying the famed polydactyl felines that run the place. Dry Tortugas National Park Let's start big picture. What's the vibe here? Dry Tortugas is a national park that exists primarily over open water. The park is home to incredible marine life and birds, and visitors can camp, dive, snorkel, and swim. Any standout features or must-sees? This is one the least-visited national parks in the country, meaning that everything you can see and do is pretty special no dodging selfie sticks. Standouts, however, include Port Jefferson, built as a line of defense following the War of 1812, and the Windjammer wreck site, where experienced divers can get close to the wreckage of an early 20th-century iron-hulled ship. Got it. Was it easy to get around? It's all over water and best accessible by boat. If you don't have your own, there are park tours and other trips that will take you into the park. That sounds cool. All said and done, what makes this place stand out? Unlike other national parks, here you can actually see most things in a day. Audubon House & Tropical Gardens Let's start big picture. What's this place all about? Originally home to a wealthy Key West ship captain, the grand Audubon House is a well-preserved 19th-century home with lush gardens. Today it's open to visitors. Any standout features or must-sees? A self-guided walk through the gardens lets visitors admire everything from orchids and bromeliads to rare tropical palms, all said to be inspiration for the backdrops that John James Audubon used in his paintings. Was it easy to get around? Any issues with accessibility The garden paths are paved, but the house itself isn't wheelchair accessible. To finish up, any insider tips? If you don't want to pay for admission to the house, tour the gardens and check out the gift shop, which is stocked with Audubon's prints. Fort Zachary Taylor Historic State Park Let's start big picture. What's the vibe here? Fort Taylor is a national historic monument and state park that houses the largest collection of Civil War armament in the world. The park is home to one of Key West's best beaches, and visitors can also learn about the fort's role in both the Civil and Spanish-American Wars through tours and self-guided exploration. Fun! Any standout features or must-sees? A tour of the fort showcases the largest collection of seacoast guns. Got it. Was it easy to get around? Any limitations? Bring a picnic and allow yourself some R&R. Most of the walking trails are wheelchair accessible. That sounds cool. All said and done, what and who is this best for? History buffs will enjoy the resort's historical ties, whereas the outdoorsy set can birdwatch, snorkel, or just relax on the sand. Smathers Beach Give us the wide-angle view: what kind of beach are we talking about? The largest public beach in Key West, Smathers Beach is lined with palm trees that give it an idyllic, tropical vibe. Lovely. How accessible is it? The beach is adjacent to Highway A1A, so it's easily accessible from virtually anywhere in Key West. It's also free. Got it. Decent services and facilities, would you say? Everything you need for a full day at the beach. Smathers is a popular site for food trucks. There are also bathrooms, rentable chairs and umbrellas, and, for active types, catamarans, paddleboards, and jet skis. How's the actual beach stuff sand and surf? Smathers has very calm water making it ideal for swimmers. Excellent. Can we go barefoot? You bet. Palm trees offer ample shade over the silky-smooth white sand. Anything special we should look for? Avoid Smathers during Spring Break it's a hotspot. The Key West Butterfly & Nature Conservatory Let's start big picture. What's the vibe here? More than 50 species of butterfly and 20 exotic bird species from around the world live in the Key West Butterfly & Nature Conservatory, where you can learn about butterfly anatomy, physiology, life cycle, feeding, and migratory patterns. Fun! Any standout features or must-sees? Flamingos strut their stuff just feet away, and don't miss the learning center, where you can watch caterpillars munch away at their host plants up close. During later hours you might even get to see an owl butterfly, which can have a wingspan of almost eight inches. Got it. Was it easy to get around? The conservatory is completely enclosed as well as wheelchair-accessible, making it a low-key activity that's good for a rainy day. Southernmost Point Tell me: What's this place all about? One of the big photo-ops in Key West, Southernmost Point is just what it sounds like: the southernmost point of the continental United States. There's not too much to see other than a large red-and-black-striped buoy statue. Who comes here? Tourists looking to get their Instagram shots. Did it meet expectations? This is a fun site to have seen, but it's extremely crowded. Go early or late in the day one thing that can make a stop special is catching a dramatic sunset. What's the bottom line here? You'll probably end up nearby at some point during your trip, so don't feel the need to make a special trip. Yoga on the Beach: Key West Yoga Zoom out. What's the big picture here? Swaying palm trees, ocean waves, exotic birds: all scenic highlights of Yoga on the Beach. Cool. Tell us who else is in the classes. Classes are usually made up of all ages and skill levels. How are the guides, then? Both certified instructors are excellent at making sure attendees have a great experience, regardless of their ability level. So: money, time how can we make the most of both? Classes vary in style, so double-check the schedule before you go. In general, though, most abilities, shapes, sizes, and ages are welcome.

On-demand shipping service Shyp is rolling out its service in Los Angeles today, its fourth city. The startup's couriers will pick up packages and returns in Santa Monica, Venice, West Hollywood, parts of Beverly Hills, and downtown. All told, this early push   which Shyp is calling a beta   will cover 70 square miles in its first foothold in Southern California. Shyp head of marketing Lauren Sherman told TechCrunch that the team launching in Los Angeles is addressing more early interest than any of its previous entrances into new cities. They've had a page up on their site for the region since they launched in Miami , and they've been collecting "thousands" of emails and ZIP codes from people interested in the service. That collection is actually how Shyp decided which parts of LA to address first. Based on the data, it decided that the aforementioned areas had the highest concentration of interest. As it brings on people interested in serving as couriers, it's arranging for them to cover specific areas so that couriers can skip the city's infamous traffic and just focus on collecting local packages. Mobile vans serve as a secondary tier of collection, picking up packages from couriers in their area instead of making them return to base stations to actually send things off. Given its launch as a beta, not everyone in the Los Angeles service regions will get access to Shyp today. Sherman says the rollout will take place over the next several weeks, with new potential customers added to the pool of users as the service adjusts its courier and van placement to best address early demand. In addition to announcing its launch in Los Angeles, Shyp also confirmed that it has raised another $50 million in funding, as we reported several weeks ago . Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers led the Series B round, which also included previous investors Homebrew and Sherpa Ventures. The round brings Shyp's total funding to $62.2 million. KPCB's John Doerr will join Shyp's board of directors.


As a marriage counselor years ago, Neil Clark Warren saw first-hand how incompatibility led to unhappy matches. So the compatibility factor was key - even in the name - when he co-founded online match-making service eHarmony in 2000. Now, with surveys showing 70 percent of Americans are unhappy with their jobs, he thinks the same focus on matching personalities can work in the recruitment industry. "Nobody has really matched personalities in terms of the applicant and the supervisor. That's not something that LinkedIn or Monster do," Warren said, explaining eHarmony's plans to get into the employment industry. "(The career market) is such a big market that we do expect it to grow faster than our core product," the octogenarian clinical psychologist and eHarmony CEO said in an interview. Finding love is not easy, and neither is the increasingly crowded online match-making industry. The market is dominated by Barry Diller's IAC/InterActiveCorp, owner of Match.com as well as other sites for the lovelorn. IAC has also been gaining market share through acquisitions, including dating app Tinder. Los Angeles-based EHarmony plans to launch its recruitment service - Elevated Careers - in 2016, and expects the business to contribute about 60 percent of the company's revenue within three years. In the meantime, visitors to elevatedcareers.com can sign up either as a job-seeker or recruiter. Work on the project has been under way for more than a year. "It's so important that Elevated Careers is developed to eHarmony standards via client feedback," a spokeswoman said. The new service speaks to eHarmony's need to diversify as IAC/InterActiveCorp bulks up ahead of the planned public listing of Match Group, which will hold the company's dating businesses. IAC pushed deeper into the mobile-based dating business last month when it agreed to buy PlentyOfFish. Match Group did not respond to requests for comment on whether it plans to launch a recruitment service. EHarmony has no plans to go public, Warren said. "We love the position of being able to manage our own situation and not feel pushed by any public groups," he said. "We're very much on the side of remaining private as of this time." Daniel Kurnos, an analyst at brokerage Benchmark Co, estimates that eHarmony, whose biggest shareholder is Madrone Capital Partners, has a market value of about $1 billion. The U.S. online dating market is worth more than $2 billion annually, he said. In comparison, the online career market - which includes LinkedIn Corp and Monster Worldwide Inc - is worth about $6 billion a year, said Lisa Rowan of market research firm IDC. The entire talent acquisition and staffing market worldwide is worth about $94 billion, she said. EHarmony expects "high and double-digit" revenue growth in percentage terms this year, to between $275 million and $350 million. Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) are expected to increase by 50-70 percent both this year and next, said Warren, who turns 81 next month. But he said the contribution from Elevated Careers would be "minuscule" as eHarmony spends heavily to develop the business. Both employers and job-seekers will likely pay to use the service, although some features could be free. More than 100 variables will be used to match clients. Apart from skills and experience, the algorithm will attempt to match job-seekers and employers based on such variables as personality - as on the eHarmony site - as well as work and social and cultural values. Warren retired from eHarmony in 2007 but came back as CEO after five years to turn around the business, whose growth was slowing in the face of increasing competition. He cut jobs, bought back shares from Sequoia Capital and slashed the nine-member board to two (now three) - himself and "very close friend" Greg Penner, founder of Madrone Capital and now chairman of Wal-Mart Stores Inc. A compatible match, it seems.

The billionaire investor Carl Icahn is furious over the generous terms Warren Buffett received when he came to the aid of Occidental Petroleum's bidding war with Chevron. Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway agreed in late April to provide $10 billion in equity financing to add firepower to Occidental's controversial hostile takeover offer for Anadarko Petroleum. "The whole thing is a travesty," Icahn, who is launching an increasingly contentious proxy war to replace four Occidental directors, told CNN Business. Buffett's backing allowed Occidental to sweeten its bid , eventually forcing much larger Chevron to retreat from the bidding war altogether. Icahn, a fierce critic of the Anadarko acquisition , took particular issue with the decision by Occidental CEO Vicki Hollub to grant Buffett warrants to purchase up to 80 million shares of common stock. "She gave him a gift," Icahn said of Hollub, adding that others would have done the deal a lot more cheaply. However, the activist investor made clear he is not criticizing Buffett for the deal. "I certainly don't blame Warren -- I blame the OXY board and Hollub," Icahn told CNN Business, using the oil company's stock ticker. "This is the poster child for what is wrong with corporate governance." Still, in a letter to shareholders released Monday , Icahn suggested that Buffett took advantage of Hollub, who has admitted to having "very limited" M&A experience. "Buffett figuratively took her to the cleaners," Icahn wrote, adding that the deal was "like taking candy from a baby." Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway did not respond to a request for comment. Occidental declined to comment, but the company has previously explained that it didn't have the luxury of waiting to get the funds it needed from Berkshire. Related video: Warren Buffett's take on the 2020 presidential election Board battle gets ugly Occidental fired off its own sharply worded letter on Monday urging shareholders to reject Icahn's effort to replace four directors, including Chairman Eugene Batchelder. Occidental defended its acquisition of Anadarko -- a deal aimed at expanding the oil giant's presence in the booming Permian Basin of West Texas. "Mr. Icahn's own statements demonstrate that he does not understand or support the strategic and financial merits of the acquisition," Hollub and Batchelder wrote in the letter. The executives warned that Icahn's nominees for the board would "interfere" with Occidental's ability to successfully integrate Anadarko's "valuable assets and deliver on the promise of this acquisition at this critical juncture." Icahn's board slate includes former Jarden finance chief Alan LeFevre, former Shell Oil Company president John Hofmeister and two of his firm's executives. Occidental argued in the letter that "none" of Icahn's proposed directors "possess skills, experience or expertise that are additive or superior to our existing directors." Still, some large Occidental shareholders and analysts have echoed Icahn's concerns about the structuring of the Anadarko acquisition. Existential threat to Occidental? While Occidental has championed the Anadarko deal as a smart way to capitalize on the US shale oil boom, Icahn fears the acquisition is too risky. He points to the volatile nature of oil prices and the added leverage Occidental had to take on to get its hands on Anadarko. "If oil goes below $40 a barrel, the Anadarko deal could give Occidental almost an existential problem," Icahn told CNN Business. Occidental has promised to rapidly reduce its debt, in part by selling off some of its non-oil assets. Occidental also projects the acquisition will generate at least $3.5 billion in annual cost and capital spending synergies -- giving the company further flexibility to clean up its balance sheet. Icahn, who Forbes estimates has a net worth of $18.6 billion, also took issue with Occidental's executive compensation practices. He called out Occidental for awarding Hollub $14.1 million in total compensation last year despite the fact that the company's market value has tumbled since she became CEO in April 2016. By comparison, the median Occidental employee earned $124,103 last year, filings show. "They have to work two years to earn what she makes in one week," Icahn told CNN Business. "What is she making it for? Losing $18 billion in market cap?" Occidental has said in filings that Hollub's 12% increase in stock awards to $9.5 million was "appropriate in recognition" of her 2017 performance. The company also said the pay boost was designed to "better align" Hollub's compensation with her peers. Hollub's total pay in 2018 was less than the CEOs of several rival oil companies, including Chevron CEO Michael Wirth, ExxonMobil CEO Darren Woods and ConocoPhillips boss Ryan Lance.

DES MOINES, Iowa   Dalilah Muhammad broke a 16-year-old world record in the 400m hurdles at the USATF Outdoor Championships on Sunday. Muhammad, the Rio Olympic champion, clocked 52.20 seconds on a wet track to take .14 off Russian Yuliya Pechonkina 's mark from 2003. "My coach kept telling me it was there," Muhammad, whose previous best was 52.64 from 2017, told Lewis Johnson on NBC. "I just had to trust in my fitness and go for it." Muhammad, 29, leads a four-woman U.S. team for world championships in Doha in two months that could sweep the medals. She's joined by Sydney McLaughlin , who entered Sunday's final with the fastest time in the world this year and finished second in 52.88. McLaughlin, who in Rio became the youngest U.S. Olympic track and field competitor since 1972, goes to her first worlds. Olympic bronze medalist Ashley Spencer and defending world champion Kori Carter are also on the team. USATF OUTDOORS: Full Results In other events Sunday, Noah Lyles made his first world championships team by winning the 200m in 19.78 seconds. He topped U.S. 100m champion Christian Coleman , who was second in 20.02 to set up a 100m-200m double in Doha. More on Lyles-Coleman here . Olympic 1500m champion Matthew Centrowitz was upset by mulletted Craig Engels , but Centrowitz still finished second to make his seventh straight Olympic or world team. Favorites Daniel Roberts , Grant Holloway and Devon Allen went one-two-three in the 110m hurdles to make up that world team. Holloway beat Roberts at the NCAA Championships in 12.98 seconds, fastest in the world this year, then dived across the finish line Sunday to secure his first world spot. Roberts won in 13.23. Dezerea Bryant won the women's 200m in 22.47 seconds, while U.S. 100m champion Teahna Daniels missed the world team in this event .02, taking fourth. Emma Coburn earned her eighth steeplechase title in nine years, even though she did not need to race here because she as a bye into Doha as defending world champion. Coburn is joined on the world team by Courtney Frerichs , who took second, just as she did at 2017 Worlds. Coburn ranks third in the world this year behind Kenyans Beatrice Chepkoech (world-record holder) and Norah Jeruto . Olympic 800m bronze medalist Clayton Murphy fought traffic in the last 200 meters to go from fourth to second behind Donavan Brazier and qualify for worlds. Brazier, 22, ranks fifth in the world this year after being eliminated in the semifinals in his world champs debut in 2017. Ajeé Wilson earned her third straight U.S. 800m title, clocking 1:57.72.

Lopez Lomong , who won the 10,000m on Thursday, doubled up in the 5000m, but he can't compete at worlds in the latter because he doesn't have a fast enough qualifying time.

Shelby Houlihan completed her second straight 1500m-5000m double at nationals by kicking to win the longer distance.

Liverpool midfielder Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain was absent from the Liverpool squad in training as he is following a special training program to make him match fit and ready for the upcoming season. Having been out for a year with a cruciate ligament rupture, the Liverpool staff have put the English international on a specialist program so that he is not overexerted in training. This comes after Oxlade-Chamberlain featured against Borussia Dortmund in their 3-2 defeat in Notre Dame where he played for an hour - the most game time he's seen in a fixture since his return from injury. As reported by the Liverpool Echo , manager Jürgen Klopp sees the winger turned midfielder as an important part for his side and will rely on him throughout the upcoming campaign. Therefore, he and his staff are making sure Oxlade-Chamberlain stays fit, healthy and ready for the challenges ahead. The 25-year-old has impressed for the Reds since his move from Arsenal in August 2017, with his best moments coming against title rivals Manchester City in both the Premier League and Champions League where he scored two stunning long-range efforts. With captain Jordan Henderson also excited for Chamberlain's return back to full fitness, the energetic midfielder will have to come back and fill some big shoes following Liverpool's triumphant Champions League win. The Reds have already had some injury problems in pre-season, with Naby Keita still not recovered and keeper Caoimhin Kelleher out for the next few weeks. The squad is also still without some of their biggest names, with the likes of Sadio Mane, Mohamed Salah and Roberto Firmino not yet back to training after their summer international duty.

NBA teams threw billions of dollars at free agents during the first two days that the market was open. There were some vast overpays. Just as the Charlotte Hornets and New York Knicks, two teams that found themselves as major losers . On the other end of the spectrum, teams found some major value on the open market. It's in this that we look at the 10 best bargains of NBA free agency thus far. Terrence Ross, Orlando Magic Acquired from the Toronto Raptors in the Serge Ibaka trade during the 2016-17 season, Ross has morphed into a core piece for a playoff contending Magic squad. Last season saw him average 15.1 points on 38 percent shooting from distance as one of the top reserves in the NBA. This ultimately netted Ross a mere four-year, $54 million contract with Orlando. During a free agency period that has seen the likes of Ricky Rubio net $17 million annually, this represented a major steal. Jeremy Lamb, Indiana Pacers The Pacers did some major work during the early stages of free agency, adding both Lamb and former Rookie of the Year Malcolm Brogdon to a talented young core. Though, it's the signing of Lamb to a three-year, $31 million deal that has to be seen as a major bargain. The former Houston Rockets first-round pick averaged a career-best 15.3 points and 5.5 rebounds while shooting 35 percent from distance with the Hornets last season. He can be the starting two-guard next to Brogdon before Victor Oladipo returns from injury . Again, this was a major steal. Seth Curry, Dallas Mavericks While some teams were holding out hope that Curry might be had for the taxpayer mid-level exception ($5.6 million), he priced himself out of that market. The former Duke and G-League star shot a ridiculous 45 percent from three-point range with Portland last season and was the team's best bench player during a postseason run to the Western Conference Finals. This ultimately netted Curry a four-year, $32 million deal with his former Mavs team. Given how the market has played out, this represents one of the biggest bargains of NBA free agency. Rodney Hood, Portland Trail Blazers Right there with Curry as a stellar bench option for Portland last season, it seemed reasonable to conclude that Hood would net north of $13 million on the open market. Instead, he took just $16 million over two seasons to re-sign with Portland. That's less than the full mid-level exception. Still only 26 years old, Hood is just now entering his prime. Given that he shot 36 percent from distance and averaged north of 11 points per game in 2018-19, Portland made out like a bandit here. DeAndre Jordan, Brooklyn Nets It sure seemed to help that both Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant took less than the max to help their best bud join the NBA's latest super team. Even then, Jordan netting just $10 million annually over four seasons is a major steal for the Nets. While Jordan's game has fallen off some recently, he's still among the best defensive bigs in the game. Here's a dude that has put up north of 11 rebounds per game each of the past seven seasons, including averaging 3.5 offensive boards per game. That's going to be huge for the Nets. Kevon Looney, Golden State Warriors Following the acquisition of D'Angelo Russell in a shocking sign-and-trade with Brooklyn , these Warriors were up against the hard cap. That's magnified by the fact that they traded former NBA Finals MVP Andre Iguodala in a cash dump. This seemed to suggest that a vastly improved Kevon Looney was next out the door. Instead, he signed a mere three-year, $15 million contract to be Golden State's starting center moving forward. As tough as they come , Looney has morphed into a talented young big with mid-range ability and elite-level traits on defense. At $5 million annually, this was a massive score for the retooled Dubs. Derrick Rose, Detroit Pistons Rose might be a shell of his former MVP self. Even then, the veteran has turned around what was an injury-derailed career. The 30-year-old point guard averaged 18.0 points and 4.3 assists while shooting 48 percent from the field for Minnesota last season. These represented Rose's best numbers since his MVP season of 2010-11. All of this netted him a mere two-year, $15 million deal with the Pistons. Given Reggie Jackson's struggles at the point, we would not be surprised if Rose landed the starting job. If so, $7.5 million annually is a major steal for the Pistons. J.J. Redick, New Orleans Pelicans One of his generation's best three-point shooters, Redick is coming off a two-year span in Philadelphia that saw him earn north of $35 million. Most figured he was in line for a similar pay day during what has been a robust market for shooters. That did not happen. Redick scored a two-year, $26.5 million deal from a retooled Pelicans squad. This comes with him having shot 40-plus percent from distance in each of the past seven seasons. Redick is also a tremendous fit with youngsters Zion Williamson, Brandon Ingram and Lonzo Ball in Nola. What a signing for new Pelicans general manager David Griffin. Patrick Beverley, Los Angeles Clippers Beverley's tremendous backstory notwithstanding, we were surprised to learn that he decided to re-up with Los Angeles at just $40 million over three seasons. A two-time All-NBA Defensive Team performer, Beverley has actually morphed into a solid performer on the other end of the court. He's shot better than 38 percent from distance each of the past four seasons. Those are some solid numbers for a defense-first guy. His veteran leadership is also going to help young guards Landry Shamet and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. Enes Kanter, Boston Celtics Kanter might believe he got the raw end of the deal in Portland. His former teammate, Damian Lillard, might disagree . No matter what the truth is behind the scenes, we can say that Boston landed a solid replacement for Al Horford on the cheap. Kanter signed a mere two-year, $9.75 million deal with Boston. Still only 27 years old, he averaged 13.7 points and 9.8 rebounds last season. Sure he's a defensive liability, but paying less than $5 million per season for a starter-caliber center is a steal in today's market. Related slideshow: 2019 NBA offseason moves (Provided by imagn)
