James never rehearses the speech, but already knows what the gist will be. "It would be in the range of, 'Why not us?'" James said Saturday. "Why not us? History is broken all the time. And obviously we know we're against the greatest of odds." Against the greatest of odds, against maybe the greatest of San Antonio Spurs teams, too. Both are very much against the Heat now, and both are winning....

Legal experts told Newsweek that individuals who were a part of the rally – including Trump’s lawyer Rudy Giuliani, Alabama GOP Representative Mo Brooks, and Donald Trump Jr. – could face criminal charges at both the state and federal level for using language that encouraged Trump supporters to storm the Capitol. Before the violent insurrection took place, both Trumps urged the crowd to fight the election results, while Giuliani called for “trial by combat....
Where Mr. Sabet and I differ is on what system should replace prohibition. He argues that we should decriminalize marijuana (“decrim”) so that using it is legal, but selling it is not. On its face, that seems to make sense. But this betrays a deep misunderstanding of how the criminal justice actually works. And by the way, “decrim” was the failed alcohol model during Prohibition. Much of the way police departments are evaluated—and, in turn, funded—is based on the number of arrests they make....
Access to recreational cannabis in the U.S. was tied with a 11.8 percent lower rate of opioids prescriptions each day, and 4.2 percent for medical marijuana. The authors of the paper published in the Journal of Health Economics said recreational weed laws could make it easier for patients to access the drug, and use it to treat pain and other conditions. Both types of law also appeared to cut down the total number of patients receiving opioids, as well as the total days opioids were supplied, and the likelihood of a healthcare provider prescribing the painkillers....
Going into the game, Barcelona were pretty confident as they had beaten Sevilla and Athletic Bilbao in the league prior to the international break. Leganes certainly didn’t make it easy for them and just when it looked like the hosts could hold out for a draw, Luis Suarez decided to finally end his goalless spell. The Uruguayan’s brace and Paulinho’s third made it a rout, but it didn’t tell the entire story of the game....
After their uneasy locomotive ride in “The Need for Speed,” the Legends arrive in Chicago, an epicenter of illegal 1920s activities. “Speakeasy Does It” impedes their progress to the Big Apple, however, partly due to Gary’s (Adam Tsekhman) generous-for-1925 tipping and the continued notoriety of The Bullet Blondes. Sara (Caity Lotz) and Ava (Jes Macallan) need to get some wigs, although doors already closed on the Legends due to their racial diversity (alongside the small joke of the press assuming Sara and Ava are “sisters” instead of lovers)....

Atari will not be the first time LEGO has partnered with a console developer as the toy company previously worked with Nintendo on a similar project.

MORE: Leicester’s run boosted by Buddhist monks? Three of the hosts’ last five league games have resulted in draws, and you can get odds of +300 on them being held to another stalemate in this one. Despite sitting top of the table for the majority of the past few months, few have been willing to take the Foxes seriously as genuine title contenders. With most expecting them to tail off at some point, a recent fixture list containing trips to Tottenham and Manchester City as well as a home game against Liverpool appeared the most likely stumbling block....
The Foxes, currently 12th in the English Premier League standings, are without a win in their last three games heading into the clash against the north London outfit.

He then turned on the style down Augusta National’s back nine with five birdies to come in with a six under 66. England‘s David Lynn had earlier fired a four-under par 68 to set the early pace as benign morning playing conditions cleared the way for a bunch of birdies....
Power packed performance For an enhanced gaming experience, the laptop comes with an Nvidia GTX 960M video card and 4GB GDDR5 video RAM. This is one of the first laptops to operate on the all-new Windows 10. To justify the hefty price of Rs. 1,25,000, the company claims they want to focus on eSports activities with this laptop.
