MANCHESTER, England (AP) — In four previous Premier League visits to Old Trafford, Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino had never seen his team score. He has now — three times. Tottenham humiliated Manchester United 3-0 on Monday to stay perfect after three rounds and increase the pressure on Pochettino's beleaguered counterpart, Jose Mourinho. Harry Kane and Lucas Moura struck twice in a three-minute period early in the second half. Moura grabbed a second with six minutes left. United had beaten Spurs 1-0... Читать дальше...

NEW YORK (AP) — Ben Kingsley said he didn't portray Adolf Eichmann out of love or admiration. Rather, he wanted to "nail him to the gates of Auschwitz." The Oscar-winning Kingsley, who has tackled historical figures before, including Mahatma Gandhi, Otto Frank and Simon Wiesenthal, said playing Eichmann in "Operation Finale" produced an entirely different feeling in him. "With Gandhi, I loved him. With Simon, I loved him. With Otto, I loved him. With Itzhak (Stern), I loved him. But him — I'll nail you to the gates of Auschwitz. Читать дальше...

NEW YORK (AP) — Some players, like top-ranked Simona Halep, freely acknowledge they don't deal well with the hustle-and-bustle of the U.S. Open and all it entails. Others, like 44th-ranked Kaia Kanepi, take to the Big Apple and its Grand Slam tournament. Put those two types at opposite ends of a court at Flushing Meadows and watch what can happen: Halep made a quick-as-can-be exit Monday, overwhelmed by the power-based game of Kanepi 6-2, 6-4 to become the first No. 1-seeded woman to lose her opening...

NEW YORK (AP) — Jake Tapper isn't the only author in his family. The CNN anchor's daughter has a picture book coming in March, Penguin Young Readers announced. Alice Paul Tapper, who turned 11 on Monday, has collaborated with illustrator Marta Kissi on "Raise Your Hand." The book originates from an idea Alice and fellow Girl Scouts developed after Alice noticed that on a school trip the boys spoke up and girls remained quiet. Girl Scouts can receive a "Raise Your Hand" patch by promising to raise... Читать дальше...

LAS VEGAS (AP) — Stadiums, corporate buildings and other facilities that draw crowds have strengthened their security since 9/11, and in return, they have earned U.S. protections in the event their efforts fail to prevent a terrorist attack and they are sued. But hotels have not received the same safeguards. Las Vegas' world-famous casino-resorts have long been known to be of interest to terrorists, but the constant flow of people may pose a challenge to earning liability protections under a little-known federal law, an expert said.

DETROIT (AP) — Aretha Franklin had admirers the world over, but there's no doubt the flame burned brightest in Detroit — the place she was raised and remained for most of her life. It's difficult to separate the singer from the city, so you better think that her town is saying farewell in royal fashion to its Queen of Soul, with a concert, public viewings and a funeral that's expected to be attended by at least one former president, civil rights leaders and many other musical luminaries. Here are... Читать дальше...

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) — The suspect in a deadly shooting at a Florida video game tournament was known to barely speak to fellow gamers and sometimes exhibited an erratic playing style, according to other competitors, who were baffled that their virtual sport could lead to bloodshed. Authorities say 24-year-old David Katz of Baltimore killed two people and wounded nine others before fatally shooting himself Sunday at the "Madden NFL 19" tournament being held at a riverfront mall in Jacksonville.

JACKSONVILLE, Florida, EE.UU. (AP) — La decisión de un “gamer” de abrir fuego el domingo en un campeonato de videojuegos dejando dos muertos y nueve heridos antes de suicidarse en Florida ha provocado que los participantes exijan mayor seguridad en torneos de deportes electrónicos o “esports”. “Es muy claro que tenemos que ser más proactivos en el 2019 y en el futuro”, tuiteó Joey Cuellar, el director del torneo de la serie Evolution Champhionship, un evento que se enfoca en juegos de combate....

NEW YORK (AP) — At a time when millions can hardly turn away from the news, fiction and nonfiction authors have similar reasons for why books matter more than ever. It's about perspective. "I think that people need stories to help us understand our place in the world and remember that we're part of something bigger," says Barbara Kingsolver, whose novel "Unsheltered" is one of the leading literary releases this fall. "Stories from the past, history, give you a sense of empowerment and make you feel like you can make a difference," says Doris K.

LONDON (AP) — The Russian hackers indicted by the U.S. special prosecutor last month have spent years trying to steal the private correspondence of some of the world's most senior Orthodox Christian figures, The Associated Press has found, illustrating the high stakes as Kiev and Moscow wrestle over the religious future of Ukraine.

The courtside scene in the Capital Region

BERLIN (AP) — A German newspaper reports that judges are considering jailing senior Bavarian officials for failing to take action against air pollution in Munich, home to automaker BMW. Daily Sueddeutsche Zeitung reported Monday that the southern German state's administrative court believes jailing officials may be the most effective way of forcing the Bavarian government to enforce emissions-cutting measures. Munich topped the ranks of 65 German cities that exceeded levels of harmful particles last year. Читать дальше...

LONDON (AP) — As Kiev and Moscow clash on the battlefields of eastern Ukraine, a new front has opened up in the religious sphere. Earlier this year Ukrainian's president launched a campaign to persuade Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew I, seen by many as the first among equals of Eastern Orthodox leaders, to grant Ukrainian clerics full ecclesiastical independence from the Russian Orthodox Church to which they have been tied for hundreds of years. Ukrainian politicians see such a declaration, known... Читать дальше...

Here's a quick look at how Jon and Jay Gruden view their relationship, their talents and what it was like growing up Gruden, via their answers during interviews with The Associated Press: Who did your parents love more when you were growing up? Jay: "Me. They always told me I was the perfect kid, so I assume it was me." Jon: "I was the middle kid, so I got all the hand-me-downs. I'm kind of the forgotten Gruden." Who was the better brother? Jay: "Jon, actually, was a great big brother. Showed me the ropes... Читать дальше...

Sitting beneath a television at the Gruden family home in Florida are boxes filled with recordings of dozens of games coached by Jon or Jay in the NFL and Arena Football League. There isn't a single loss on any of those discs. That's not because either of the brothers is unbeaten, of course. It's because Dad, a former assistant in the pros and college himself, wants nothing to do with the setbacks. He refuses to sit through live broadcasts of his sons' games. Why? There's no way to know how they'll end... Читать дальше...

I don't think any of us can comprehend how hard it is to do," Toronto manager John Gibbons said. Morales has already connected off Hess during the streak... Читать дальше...
