It’s a nice fantasy, but not likely. Rather than spark a wholesale hegira back to the central city, big gas and electricity bills are more likely to produce a bracing new era of innovation in suburban and even exurban life. The paradigm shift–oft trumpeted in the media–between energy-sucking McMansions and cramped, transit-oriented apartments will be trumped by the drive to develop better, and greener, suburbs.

Top seed Halep, who ended her wait for a major title at the French Open last month, won the first set, had the chance to serve out for the victory and earned match point on her opponent’s serve. However, Hsieh’s unpredictable offence and never-say-die attitude paid dividends as she upset the world number one to secure a 3-6 6-4 7-5 victory. It means only one top-10 seed, Karolina Pliskova, remains in the women’s draw, although Serena Williams (25) is still in contention....

The England winger went down in the box in the 24th minute after kicking the turf as he shaped to shoot. But referee Viktor Kassai pointed to the spot, believing Sterling had been felled by Shakhtar defender Mykola Matvyenko, and Gabriel Jesus stepped up to score City’s second and the first goal of his hat-trick. Guardiola appeared to motion on the touchline that he disagreed with the decision and later confirmed: “We realised immediately it was not a penalty....
Silva returned to action on Tuesday after missing three of City’s previous four Premier League games and turned in a man-of-the-match performance as Guardiola’s runaway leaders saw off Watford 3-1. Unspecified personal matters were initially put forward as the reason for Silva not playing against Tottenham, Newcastle United and Crystal Palace but the 31-year-old Spain international issued a statement on Wednesday explaining his absence was due to the premature birth of his baby son, Mateo, who he said was still receiving medical care and “fighting day by day”....
It had looked set to be an evening of frustration for the Premier League champions at Bramall Lane on Tuesday, with Blades goalkeeper Dean Henderson in inspired form.

Despite the pain, the 27-year-old was determined to take part. She had waited a long time to become an Olympian, nine years since being an unused backup for Team GB at the 2012 Games in London....
Yet, you’re not as impactful and, therefore, not as successful as your intelligence, talents and skills deserve. My friend and founder of 100 Coaches, Marshall Goldsmith, wrote the business book What Got You Here, Won’t Get You There to address this conundrum. Marshall explained how technical competence can get you to a certain level of success in your career. But when you cross over into having your success depend on other people and when, instead of motivating them, you offend and demotivate them — even when it’s not intentional — you’re unlikely to achieve your best results or realize your full potential....

Aguero became the top non-European goalscorer in Premier League history when he opened the scoring in the 24th minute, before Liverpool forward Sadio Mane was sent off for a rash aerial lunge on Ederson that saw the City goalkeeper leave the field on a stretcher. Man City 10/1 to win CL Guardiola’s side were merciless in making the numerical advantage count and Jesus headed home Kevin De Bruyne’s cross in first-half stoppage time before Aguero teed him up for a simple finish when through one-on-one with Reds keeper Simon Mignolet early in the second period....
