Observers point to several key moves. In one, Dean aides blocked a likely major endorsement of rival Dick Gephardt by convincing the Service Employees International Union that it should wait until the end of the month to act–at which point Dean can impress them with a massive lead in fund-raising. In another, Dean last week locked up the endorsement of the majority of the city council in Washington, D.C., where a nonbinding but early primary takes place in January....

Losing Jordan so late in free agency and in such bizarre fashion was a gut-wrenching loss for Dallas. On Friday, Jordan tweeted an apology for leading on the team and its fans. He also apologized to Mavericks owner, Mark Cuban, who said Jordan claimed to be “on a date” the night he was meeting with Clippers players.

Chloe Wiegand died after plummeting from the 11th story of the Royal Caribbean’s Freedom of the Seas while it was docked in San Juan, Puerto Rico, on July 7. It was originally reported that the girl died after slipping from her grandfather’s grasp as he held her by a window. The family has dismissed these reports, claiming Chloe accidentally fell through an open window in the kid’s play area after being placed on a railing by her grandfather Salvatore Anello, who thought there was glass behind it....

Now, new evidence has surfaced that might help corroborate her story: previously overlooked fingerprints of one of her murdered sons. The prints, says a former New York Police Department examiner hired by Routier’s attorneys, don’t match a much-debated bloody fingerprint found on a coffee table at the murder scene. The jury had dismissed the bloody smear at trial partly on the assumption that it likely came from one of the murdered boys....

RELATED: Things We Loved About Death Stranding (& Things We Don’t) Albeit, the commercial sales are impressive there are still games that managed to perform much better, but there are also those that Death Stranding left behind in terms of sales, and below is the list of them. Updated on June 16th, 2021 by Ritwik Mitra: While the initial reaction to Death Stranding might have been mixed, more and more players have realized what makes this game unique....

The image in question features a closer look at the dog tags worn by Norman Reedus’s character in the game. The dog tags appear to be engraved with the Schwarzschild metric equation, which relates to the event horizon of black holes. This has led many to speculate that Death Stranding will see Norman Reedus traveling through a black hole, possibly even time traveling in the process. Of course, that is just speculation at this time....

The latter question might not have a concrete answer (yet), but players willing to shell out for it can now do some of the necessary research themselves. Prime 1 Studio is taking preorders for its new collectible statue of Mikkelsen’s Death Stranding character, Cliff Unger, but the remarkable piece of sculpture will set folks back a significant chunk of cash.

Even though Death Stranding has been featured at many major industry events like TGS and E3, it remains a game that still has so many question marks surrounding it. One thing that has never been made clear outside of actual gameplay mechanics is a release date. While individuals and industry analysts like Michael Pachter have predicted Death Stranding would get a PlayStation 5 release, it’s now looking more and more likely thanks to the admission that the PS5 will be backward compatible with PS4 games....

Not every area has a proper name however, with most locations simply being relegated to “area around other area” status. Even some of the major delivery points in the game are similarly named, with places like “Distribution Center North of Mountain Knot City” only being described by the more important location nearby. RELATED: Death Stranding: Is It Really a New Genre? Now, while art is obviously subjective, with Death Stranding’s reviews representing exactly that, the following are some of the most widely appealing areas in the game....

Why? Because IBM’s stock is so cheap. Cheap, that is, compared with smaller high-techies like Microsoft, Oracle or Cisco Systems. These guys trade at roughly $0 to 40 times their per-share earnings. IBM sells for less than a third as much, even after doubling over the past three years to $128. That frustrates IBM’s investors. (Not to mention top managers, who are optioned to the eyeballs.) So much so that chairman Louis Gerstner felt compelled to take up the issue at a recent stock-analysts meeting in Toronto....

Everything about Barca in 2014-15 had seemed impressive. The attitude, the organization, the desire and the commitment was all there. Wins over Elche, Villarreal, Athletic Club, Levante, Granada and APOEL, plus a goalless draw at Malaga, showed early promise - but ultimately proved little. Paris Saint-Germain, on the other hand, has already conceded ground in its own title race and even though the club’s owners assured Blanc’s job was safe, six draws from 10 competitive fixtures this term had led to intense speculation over the coach’s position at the Parc des Princes....

Wilson was the star attraction at Texas Rangers camp on Monday, suiting up and taking ground balls with the team that selected him from the Colorado Rockies in the minor league phase of the Rule 5 draft in December. Wilson, who was Colorado's fourth-round pick out of N.C. State in 2010 and hit .228 in 193 at-bats as a second baseman for Single-A Asheville in 2011, has not given up his major league dream, but it's the gridiron that is his present and his foreseeable future....

He spent 14 years in the NFL as a cornerback. During that time, he also spent parts of nine seasons in MLB as an outfielder. And since his playing career came to a close, he’s found success as a coach. Sanders was one of the NFL’s all-time best cornerbacks, earning eight Pro Bowl, six All-Pro selections, winning a pair of Super Bowl rings and eventually earning a spot in the Pro Football Hall of Fame....

Spain’s Vicente Del Bosque is two victories away from emulating West Germany’s Helmut Schoen on Sunday, to date the only coach to win both the World Cup and the European Championship. Del Bosque 61, took over from Luis Aragones after Euro 2008 and lifted the World Cup two years later after a relatively seamless transition owing to the respect of the squad for a man who twice conquered Europe with Real Madrid....

Del Potro beat world number one Roger Federer in an intense final at Indian Wells on Sunday to add to his Acapulco title. The Argentine is the fifth seed in Miami and gets under way against Robin Haase, with Novak Djokovic potentially awaiting in the fourth round. Del Potro, though, feels his recent successes have been taking a toll on his body. “I’m not thinking too much about the slams,” Del Potro told reporters on Wednesday....
