My heart was operating at 13 percent and I was firmly told I couldn’t be doing that sort of thing in my condition. The nurse said she would send round a physiotherapist called Nikki Simpson to tell me what I could and couldn’t do while doctors tried to figure out what was going on with my heart. “Nikki Simpson?” I asked. It couldn’t be. The woman I had once known with the same name was training to be a hairdresser, plus she’d married and moved away....
In a post to Reddit on Monday, user u/Enough_Clouds3409 said that her fiancé “Jack” has coaxed her into paying for his friend “Steve’s” electronics, meals at a restaurant, and more, using his pal’s recent battle with cancer as the excuse. When she told Jack she was tired of forking out for his friend, he called the poster “selfish” and “petty”—among other names—causing her to question her decision. However, fellow Redditors said that Jack’s behavior could be a sign of financial abuse, or even an affair with his BFF....

Need For Speed may have a somewhat checkered history in recent years, but the first official trailer for the live-action film shows that - at first glance - EA and Dreamworks Pictures aren’t cutting any corners. Breaking Bad star Aaron Paul’s quest for vengeance behind the wheel of a car may be standard fare for a racing game storyline, but with a wealth of actual racing, supercars, police chases and explosions, fans of the franchise might be pleasantly surprised....
The Egypt international scored his 150th goal for the Reds in their 3-1 victory over Norwich City on Saturday. Roger Hunt is the only player to achieve this feat in fewer games than him. Many believe the 29-year-old has already staked a claim for a place among the Reds’ all-time greats. Aldridge, though, feels he needs to do more for his name to be mentioned along with the likes of Ian Rush, Kenny Dalglish, Robbie Fowler and Hunt....

Read our review for the full details. The story plays out identically to every Super Mario game ever. Peach has been kidnapped by the tyrannic Bowser, and he’s brought back his children, the Koopa Kids, to once and for all squash his nemesis. The graphics are what gamers have come to expect from a 3DS title, and may be even a bit better, but the 3D itself is completely unnecessary....

“Nice try, Don—your source is an OAN ‘journalist’ who got duped into bringing Borat’s daughter to the White House. Sad,” he tweeted on Thursday, sharing an article from Mediaite that reported that Trump was sharing a debunked conspiracy theory.

Forget the long-awaited abortion ruling. This was the annual skit performed by law clerks at term’s end. In “Supreme Court Squares”–a sendup of the game show “Hollywood Squares”–the clerks played each of the nine justices and answered ridiculous questions as two litigious contestants vied for victory. (Sorry, no cash prizes.) Several justices attended. Kennedy’s name elicited the clerks’ best gag: they played the theme song from the old TV sea classic “Flipper....

At a seminar hosted by the Institute for National Policy Research, a local think tank, Su and other thought leaders agreed that a Biden administration would continue to try and contain “Chinese expansionism.” “The bipartisan Taiwan consensus recognized by both the Republican and Democratic parties will not change,” Su said, adding: “The post-Trump or pre-Biden period will follow a predictable path....
