Congratulations, you are the Clippers, and your roommate is DeAndre Jordan. NBA TRADE DEADLINE: Biggest winners and losers Los Angeles actively shopped Jordan throughout the season but ultimately kept the big man past the Feb. 8 trade deadline. The Clippers felt they were getting close to completing a deal with the Cavs this past Thursday, according to ESPN’s Brian Windhorst, but once it was clear the Cavs were going in a different direction with multiple trades as opposed to a Jordan blockbuster, the Clippers decided to keep their current roster intact....

As much as we loved Jacob, that period of our lives is still incredibly painful to remember. Yet, years after his death, letters addressed to Jacob find their way into our mailbox. Early on, I was driven almost to tears by these inducements for our son to attend a ritzy local private school or to sample a particular snack cake. I knew my wife would be devastated by such mail, and I tried to get to the mailbox first so that she would never be affronted by envelopes addressed to her dead first child....

Justice Harry Blackmun won’t have the problem anymore. Last week, changing his position after nearly a quarter century on the court, he renounced capital punishment. “From this day forward,” he wrote in a solitary dissent, “I no longer shall tinker with the machinery of death.” Blackmun said the American system of capital punishment was unconstitutional because it was applied unfairly, arbitrarily and with racial bias; not only that, the system “must wrongly kill some defendants,” he said....

My father came home to convalesce, and from the very beginning the Gestapo was in front of our house. On Oct. 14, two generals [came] to the house [and] asked to speak to my father alone. My father came upstairs and said to my mother: “I will be dead in 20 minutes. They told me I participated in the plot. They told me that they would give me the chance to die from poison....

The Nellis Air Force Range in southern Nevada is home to the country’s largest herd of wild horses. Soon it could become their graveyard. These days the depleted range 175 miles northwest of Las Vegas is dotted with emaciated mustangs. Their ribs are barely concealed by hides that are scarred from battles fought over the dwindling supply of food and water. Mares, no longer able to produce milk, have abandoned their young....

That’s if recent comments by Death Stranding actor Mads Mikkelsen are to be believed, at least. Speaking during a panel at a recent conference in South Korea, Mikkelsen revealed that shooting for the upcoming video game is still continuing. Mikkelsen explained that Kojima makes filming “dynamic” as actors “have to go through all kinds of facial expressions, all kind of movements, so that later on he can morph it into whatever he wants....

Death Stranding’s vast and ever-increasing list of A-list actors and known personalities is easily one of the most interesting things about Hideo Kojima’s latest creation.

Reviews of Death Stranding have been mixed, to say the least, with some calling it a revolutionary masterpiece while others find it to be meandering and plagued with poor writing. Everyone can agree that Death Stranding is truly something new, with gameplay that clicks for some and not others, innovative social features, and a story that may or may not be a complete mess. This range of responses reflects less on the quality of Death Stranding and more on the growth of mainstream criticism....

Being one of the more notable releases of 2021, Deathloop has enjoyed a fair bit of attention for its impressive world-building and emblematic Arkane gameplay. While the studio did release a few extra content updates over the course of 2022, it didn’t seem like there was anything else directly relating to the IP in active development. RELATED: Deathloop Announces Goldenloop Update With a Trailer After Arkane Studios revealed that Deathloop takes place in the Dishonored universe, which had been a long-standing fan theory up until then, most fans expected that there wasn’t much else to say about the game....

In a post shared the Am I Being Unreasonable? (AIBU) forum on Tuesday, user Southwig22 wrote that a neighbor had stopped her while she was out walking her dog. The man said her pet was “fouling” his property by urinating on a bush in his garden, one that happens to share a boundary with the public footpath. George Patient, founder and editor of Merch Mates—a website offering guides on a range of lifestyle topics, including gardening—told Newsweek: “The acidity in dog urine can damage plant roots, causing them to become yellow or brown and eventually die....

GREENE RESIGNED, apologizing for his “indiscretions.” The Tribune covered the story on its front page. Since then, Chicago’s been awash in gleefully salacious tales of Greene’s other purported extramarital affairs: Steve Dahl, a Chicago shock jock, invited women who were willing to divulge the details of their dalliances to call in to his show last Wednesday. Meanwhile, Chicago Sun-Times columnist Neil Steinberg, who was a guest on Dahl’s show, penned one of the year’s tawdriest columns, detailing one woman’s description of her affair with Greene....

NEWSWEEK: Oil prices are flirting with $100 a barrel. Do you expect them to continue rising? James Burkhard: As long as anxiety about the reliability of supply remains strong, prices will rise. They are going to be volatile, with significant upward pressure. Why are analysts worried about supply? Let me boil it down to one thing: what is behind this price rise is the perception that supply will not be able to keep up with rising demand....

Party then, pay now. Tailhook (named after the hook on the plane that grabs hold of landing cables on aircraft carriers) has become the seaborne service’s worst nightmare–a scandal that has toppled the secretary of the navy, tarnished the brass and badly sapped morale. In an extensive investigation, NEWSWEEK has pieced together an anatomy of the scandal, from its roots in the navy’s macho culture, to the sordid events at the Las Vegas Hilton, to the slow crumbling of the aviators’ code of silence....

Smith is looking to become the first person to successfully defend the title since Robert Allenby did so in 2001 and much of his good work came on the front nine, carding six birdies and a bogey before the turn. Two further gains at 10 and 15 took him to nine under for the week and moved him ahead of overnight leaders Jake McLeod and Matt Jager. McLeod is one shot back alongside fellow Australian Marc Leishman, with Jager now in a tie for fourth with Dimitrios Papadatos and Christopher Wood at seven under....

The $777.9 billion National Defense Authorization Act of 2022 initially included a provision to “modernize the Selective Service System” by requiring women ages 18 to 25 to sign up for a draft. The bill said it wanted to do this to “support the mobilization needs of the Department of Defense by including women if the all-volunteer model is no longer able to recruit enough people during a time of national crisis,” according to a summary of the bill from the House Armed Service Committee....
