Selfmade had a good chance to silence his doubters by capitalizing over the Summoner’s jungle against Gabriël “Bwipo” Rau. But his old teammates at Fnatic proved themselves to be superior in all aspects, as they dominated Vitality throughout the game. Within just 30 minutes, Vitality lost their nexus to Fnatic, ending all hopes for Selfmade’s first sweet chance of retribution. Selfmade later tweeted about taking complete responsibility for his recent underperformance and has expressed his desire to find out why as soon as possible....

The new rules will allow such athletes to compete only if they take medication to reduce naturally occurring levels of testosterone. Semenya has long raised controversy because of her powerful physique and deep voice related to hyperandrogenism, the medical condition which causes a person to produce high levels of male sex hormones. She replied to the new rules, which come into effect on November 1, 2018, by retweeting messages of support and the slogan: “How beautiful it is to stay silent when someone expects you to be enraged....

The proposal would allow the unauthorized immigrants who have been in the country since at least 2010 to file for one or two five-year temporary work permits that would allow them to find a job and not risk being deported if they pass background checks and other requirements. The Congressional Budget Office released an estimate last month saying the proposal would remove obstacles in the permanent residency process for about 3 million of the estimated 6....

Pelosi wrote on her Twitter account Tuesday that the Senate “took an historic step forward” by passing the bill, adding that the new law will tear “the bigoted, unconstitutional ‘Defense of Marriage Act’ off the books for good.” “Since the Supreme Court’s monstrous decision overturning Roe, extreme MAGA Republicans have set their sights on additional freedoms,” Pelosi continued in her thread. “In his opinion, Clarence Thomas explicitly called on the Court to reconsider the right to marriage equality handed down in its Obergefell decision....

Ernst, speaking to reporters at a stop on her two-day “Joni’s Ride Across Iowa” fundraiser in which the senator rides a motorcycle across her home state, said the committee members should be tested, according to the Des Moines Register. “I actually do think that it would be smart to do that,” Ernst said. “I hate to do [testing] without having reasons to do so, but I think if we’re going to be working in close proximity over long hours it’s probably not a bad idea....

Missing out on the camp is Grant Margeman of Ajax Cape Town, the Supersport United duo of Teboho Mokoena and Fagrie Lakay, as well as Phakamani Mahlambi and Reeve Frosler of Bidvest Wits. However, the players will be available for the second training camp, which is set to begin on Saturday, 6 May 2017.

A number of major names, including golfer Rory McIlroy, have pulled out of the Games because of health fears over Zika. The World Health Organisation last week said there is a “very low risk” of further spread of the virus as result of the sporting event held in Brazil. “Obviously it does (worry me). The U.S. (team) has talked to all the athletes, they have been going through a lot of protocol to make sure everyone is okay and comfortable and if not there is no pressure to go,” Williams, who will be competing for the United States at the Games, told Reuters in London....

Sunday’s men’s championship match pits Roger Federer against David Ferrer. It’s a much-needed victory for Williams ahead of the U.S. Open, which begins Aug. 25. Williams had never reached the finals in Cincinnati until last year, when she fell apart late in the match and lost to Victoria Azarenka in a third-set tiebreaker. No wobbles Sunday. After getting broken in the first game, she recovered and closed it out in 62 minutes....

The 23-time Grand Slam champion suffered the most lopsided defeat of her career, a 6-1, 6-0 loss to Johanna Konta in San Jose, California, last Tuesday. She then withdrew from this week’s Rogers Cup in Montreal, citing personal reasons. “Last week was not easy for me. Not only was I accepting some tough personal stuff, but I just was in a funk. Mostly, I felt like I was not a good mom,” Williams said in an Instagram post on Monday....

Two weeks after protesters cordoned off and occupied parts of Capitol Hill, now named the Capitol Hill Occupied Protest (CHOP), Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan announced on Monday it would be disbanded. Officials didn’t share a specific timeline for clearing the area and Durkan said the goal is to have people leave voluntarily. But a Seattle police officer who spoke to Newsweek on the condition of anonymity, said protesters don’t have to listen to law enforcement....

According to an excerpt from “Yes, It’s Hot in Here: Adventures in the Weird, Woolly World of Sports Mascots,” President Clinton was at Shea Stadium for the 50th anniversary of Jackie Robinson’s first game with the Mets, and Mass, in costume, decided he wanted to approach the president and get a photo with him. "The goal, of course, being the holy grail for all mascots -- a photo op and meet and greet with a sitting president....

Kim closed with a 7-under 65 on Sunday for a nine-shot victory, finishing at 31-under 257 to break by four shots to par the record Kim had shared with Annika Sorenstam. Kim won the 2016 Founders Cup at 27 under, while Sorenstam won the 2001 Standard Register Ping at 27 under, the tournament Sorenstam shot 59. Kim also set the 72-hole scoring record at 257, finishing with three straight pars to break the mark by one shot....

“We will always be brothers,” Kariya said. “In this life and the next.” Kariya and Selanne were teammates for five seasons in Anaheim, then again with the Colorado Avalanche in 2003-04. The pair spent the better part of their careers alongside each other, which made Monday’s dual induction much more meaningful. Kariya was on the ballot for the fifth year, Selanne for the first; but according to Kariya he wouldn’t be able to give an induction speech if it weren’t for the Finnish star....

But to some observers, the Nunavut deal seemed more like a new way of selling ice to the Eskimos. “It was a hollow gesture in a way, because what did Canada give up?” says Jason Clay, director of research at Cultural Survival, a Cambridge, Mass., human-rights group. “Basically, nothing.” The agreement clarifies ownership within the vast area, but gives the Inuit title to only 136,000 square miles, about one sixth of the entire territory in which they have fished and hunted for hundreds of years....

The Democrat from Oregon said the incident confirmed yet again the dishonesty of an industry that falsely claimed to safeguard the privacy oh phone users. “Experts have warned for years that data collected by advertising companies from Americans’ phones could be used to track them and reveal the most personal details of their lives. Unfortunately, they were right,” Wyden said in a statement. “Data brokers and advertising companies have lied to the public, assuring them that the information they collected was anonymous....

The bill would provide financial stability to the government agency, especially after the strain and service slowdowns it faced during the COVID-19 pandemic. However, at least one senator has said that the USPS will need more changes to become financially stable. Primarily, the law would resolve an increasing USPS debt caused by the 2006 Postal Accountability and Enhancement Act, which required the USPS to start pre-funding its retirees’ health benefits....

Except for that everything is great in Unawatuna. We ended up staying one night at Tangalle at a really yucky hotel. Mommy almost made the housekeeper cry. For good reasons too! She yelled and screamed at this poor guy because you literally could not see the sink in the bathroom it was so covered with ants. Anyway, we got out of there fast! Now we’re in a lovely beachfront cabana with no ants to worry about....
