Now Beit Jala is a front line in a low-intensity conflict edging toward guerrilla war. The predominantly Christian town once known for its olive oil and a popular grilled-chicken restaurant now is famous for the tracer rounds that light up the darkness in nightly news footage. For weeks Palestinian snipers have used Beit Jala as a base to shoot at the nearby Jewish neighborhood of Gilo, and the Israeli Army has responded with rocket, missile and machine-gun fire....

“Ronaldo has so many unpleasant traits it is very easy for him to be cast in a more villainous role,” wrote Daniel Taylor in the Guardian before a season that started with the 21-year-old asking United for a transfer and proceeded to see him routinely booed by fans embittered by his histrionics in Germany. In the eye of a storm, Ronaldo had a less theatrical encounter that still leaves an impression on a similarly once-famous teenage footballer....

The suspension was first reported by French news agency AFP. Amid rising cases of COVID, the French Interior Ministry’s Paris Prefecture had enacted the mandate at the end of December. It required all persons operating in public in France to wear a mask, even when outside. However, Paris’ Administrative Tribunal struck down the mandate, allowing people in the iconic French city to once again wear masks by choice. The decision comes just one day after a similar mandate was struck down in the Yvelines Department, near the city of Versailles....

Spanish football league (LFP) president Javier Tebas had already lambasted Qatar-owned PSG and UAE-owned Manchester City on Monday, accusing them of being funded by state aid and circumventing Financial Fair Play (FFP) rules. Each club spent more than 200 million pounds ($260.94 million) in the last transfer window. On Wednesday Tebas went one step further. “We have caught PSG peeing in the bed or the pool. Neymar has climbed on to the diving board and peed into the pool....

The newly strengthened chancellor was quick to deny that he had pushed Lafontaine out or that his government would undergo any radical changes. There would be no dumping the radical Greens from the ruling coalition–or, indeed, any sharp policy reversals. “There is no crisis,” Schroder said, affirming his commitment to the controversial course charted by the departed Lafontaine. But a lot of people were betting, and hoping, that he didn’t mean it....

Some can be properly forgiving or removed from emotional preference while others can close the door completely in some player should they failed to perform in any match. While Benjamin Mora did more than his predecessors to highlight and be inclusive towards the likes of Afiq Fazail, Azrif Nasrulhaq and Mahali Jasuli - there’s a fair few players that seemed to have lost the faith of the coach during his tenure....

The leaked 23 minute-long walkthrough appeared on Facebook, posted by Friday the 13th: The Game France. The footage reveals the Grendel map, which is the spaceship where future-Jason recovers from his frozen state and wreaks his trademark havoc, taken from the tenth film in the franchise, Jason X. The Grendel spacecraft is explored both from the perspective of Jason and from various counselors. The map was still a work-in-progress at the time of recording, marked by missing textures and animation glitches, but what is shown looks like a somewhat faithful replication of the Grendel spaceship....

Douglass, who was to become “the most famous black man in the world,” was born a slave in Maryland in 1818. A handsome, light-colored youngster, he never knew his white father and was neglected by his mother. He endured some of the traditional horrors of slavery, but his master’s wife taught him to read, and with a book of speeches he managed to buy, young Frederick taught other slaves to read....

The consensus appeared to be that the tone and tactics of the debate in Cleveland, Ohio, on Tuesday night were a less than edifying advertisement for the American electoral process. “Chaotic, childish, mad, grueling,” were the first four words of the assessment by Liberation journalist Isabelle Hanne. “Debate moderator Chris Wallace…at times looked like a schoolteacher overwhelmed by unruly students,” she wrote, describing the debate as a “a mind-boggling spectacle for this traditionally solemn meeting watched by tens of millions of Americans....

But in some ways it is fitting that the Three Lions conclude their Russia 2018 campaign in St Petersburg. The country’s former Imperial capital was the birthplace of football in Russia more than a century-and-a-half ago, with British ex-patriots playing a key role in those formative years. “At that time, in the 1860s, there were around 2,000 British people living in St Petersburg. They were the ones who brought football to Russia,” football historian Yury Lukosyak explained to Omnisport....
