In case you didn’t know… The semi-finalists of Euro 2016 find themselves in a precarious position, perched at fourth place, 6 points off the top, in a group that also has World Cup finalists Croatia, Hungary and Slovakia. At the end of three matches, Giggs and his men have finished with three points that mark a victory and two losses. The heart of the matter Wales captain Ashely Williams is probably the biggest casualty, as Giggs dropped his name from the 26-man squad for their Euro 2020 Qualifiers....

TOULOUSE, France (Reuters) - Wales can go on to achieve future success regardless of the outcome of their final Euro 2016 group match against Russia on Monday, coach Chris Coleman said on Sunday. Wales were defeated 2-1 by England in their second Group B fixture on Thursday, but they will guarantee a spot in the round of 16 with a win in Toulouse against a Russian side who need victory to avoid elimination....

Frank Mackey is so vile at first. There’s a wild scene where you do a lascivious routine in your Jockeys in front of a female TV reporter. I took my shirt off, and Paul [Thomas Anderson] said, “All right, why don’t you take your pants off?” I said, “What?” You’re on the set, and you feel comfortable, so you go, “Really? You think?” He says, “Yeah, yeah, yeah. It’ll be funny....

By Friday, the corporate giants had released a joint statement saying they would try to work things out without intervention. “Walmart and Tesla look forward to addressing all issues and re-energizing Tesla solar installations at Walmart stores, once all parties are certain that all concerns have been addressed,” the press release stated. The trouble started on March 7, 2018, when a fire erupted on the roof of the Walmart store in Beavercreek, Ohio, according to the complaint....

Walmart’s old policy had given workers two weeks of paid leave, but the company recently revised its policy to be in line with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) newly shortened isolation and quarantine guidelines. The CDC’s new guidelines, released in late December, shorten the isolation period from 10 days to 5 days for asymptomatic people who have been exposed to or tested positive for COVID-19. The CDC still recommends 10 days of isolation for symptomatic individuals who have been exposed to or tested positive for COVID-19....

RELATED: Final Fantasy 7 Remake Gets Discounted at Walmart One other interesting benefit, according to the report, is that Walmart+ will offer some kind of video service. Walmart doesn’t currently own any video service, so exactly what kind of product or partnership Walmart is planning to offer isn’t clear. The appeal of Walmart+ should be immediately apparent, given the usefulness of grocery delivery in the midst of the pandemic. The price, $98, will prove the contentious point....

These laws fully eliminated bail and pre-trial detention for a slew of misdemeanors and many felony offenses. They also mandate pre-trial release for misdemeanor and “non-violent” felony offenses, giving judges no choice but to release arrestees before trial even if they are a clear flight risk or serious threat to public safety. To be sure, the pre-trial detention system needs reform. If an arrestee poses little to no risk to the community, their liberty should not depend on whether they can afford bail....

Not only phone numbers but you can also block email ids which keep bugging you with notifications at all hours. The best part about this is that the people you block will not come to know they have been blocked. How to block a number on iPhone? There are four apps on an iPhone where you can block phone numbers and email-ids. The steps to block numbers and ids are similar....

Back in 2018, when the remaster was first announced, few fans would have believed that Blizzard could so badly mess up the updating of one of its most beloved games. Yet the finished product has not only managed to, but has even affected those veteran Warcraft 3 fans who are still playing the original version 18 years after its release, whether or not they bought the remaster. So, what went wrong?...

Warframe’s latest expansion, The New War, continues the game’s main quest storyline, pitting all of Warframe’s factions together against the sentient army. As expected, this big update also presents players with a new warframe: the sentient-hybrid Caliban. RELATED: Warframe: How To Get Fish Oil (& What It’s For) Getting Caliban is already an involved process, with multiple steps. There is one specific step, however, that is a bit more confusing than the rest: gathering Mortus Horns....

Many first-time website owners or businesses tend to opt for shared hosting when they’re launching their website as it’s affordable. However, what many users don’t realize is that by investing just a little more in alternative hosting options, like VPS hosting, it could make all the difference to your business. By expanding your horizons and opting for a VPS through someone like ScalaHosting, you could eliminate many issues that users face with shared hosting....

It features both analogue and digital watch faces on its 1.44-inch screen, an alarm, 0.3-megapixel camera, stop watch and timer, voice recording and games. The design is clean and smart, and the specs are reasonable for something at this price (around £40 online; see the bottom of this review for the best prices). It’s aimed at children aged 4 to 9 but I wouldn’t be surprised to see a few adult hipsters wearing it for fun....

The World Anti-Doping Agency criticised the Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI) for disbanding an independent investigation commission into doping and called it “deceitful”. WADA Wednesday said in a statement that cycling’s world governing body “has again chosen to ignore its responsibility” by disbanding the commission examining UCI’s handling in the Lance Armstrong doping case, reports Xinhua. The UCI announced Tuesday that they shut down the commission for lack of support from WADA and the US Anti-Doping Agency (USADA) whose probe led to seven time Tour de France Armstrong’s fall from grace late last year....

Liverpool have not won the English top flight since the 1989-90 season, finishing just one point short of domestic treble-winners Manchester City last season. The Reds claimed the Champions League - their sixth such triumph - but there is a desire to conquer the domestic league again. Wagner is a friend and former colleague of Liverpool boss Klopp and will be supporting them in the coming campaign. “I don’t really believe, but I can hope Jurgen Klopp will go even further and win the Premier League title,” he told Omnisport....

Johnny Manziel, QB, Browns. The Johnny Football era may have dawned Sunday when Manziel replaced an ineffective Brian Hoyer in the second half of the loss at Buffalo. Manziel flashed his fantasy upside immediately, capping his first series with a TD run. While Manziel’s legs and creativity are the top two reasons we like Manziel as a QB2 pickup with QB1 upside, it doesn’t hurt that he’s surrounded by playmakers in the receiving corps and the backfield....

The welcome news is that U.S. Olympic champions of Asian heritage this year alone represent a vast variety of cultures, including Nathan Chen (Chinese American), Chloe Kim (Korean American), Asa Miller (Filipino American), Jen Lee (Taiwanese American) and Madison Chock (Chinese-Hawaiian American). The unfortunate news is that these athletes are celebrated during the games and then come home to face racism. Adding to the complexity of this experience, a media website referred to Asians, a marginalized group, as “overrepresented” in American figure skating....

“When I read about Brandon,” the fiercely focused 32-year-old Peirce recalls, “I felt an immediate kinship. I was overwhelmed by the power of his desire to change himself into his fantasy of a boy. The absolute daring and courage to go and pull it off. So I thought it was my job to bring Brandon back to life and make sense of it for everybody.” Peirce, who made a short film about Brandon as her graduate thesis at Columbia University, wanted to tell the tale as a tragic love story–an updated “Romeo and Juliet....

NEWSWEEK: Could you define soft power for our readers? Joseph S. Nye: It’s the ability to get what you want by attracting others rather than coercing them. If power is the ability to influence others to get what you want, there are three ways to do it: with threats (or sticks), with payments (or carrots) or by attraction and co-option–and that is soft power. You write that the Bush administration is effective when it comes to hard power, but not soft power....
