But the bare statistic – three suicides among the 16,000 Americans currently in Haiti – was alarming....

The Blancos are faced with selection crisis ahead of the second leg of their semi-final fixture against Bavarians after Dani Carvajal suffered an injury in their 2-1 win at the Allianz Arena last Wednesday. With Nacho still recovering from injury, the Morocco international and Theo Hernandez are favourites to fill the right-back role when Madrid host Jupp Heynckes’ side on Tuesday. But Valdano who guided the Santiago Bernabeu outfit to league glory in the 1994-95 season believes experience might count against the duo if played in such a crucial stage of the competition....

Interestingly enough, the modder and YouTuber known as Valplushka recently brought an element from what many consider to be one of the top sci-fi game worlds into reality by creating an actual flying version of Half-Life 2’s City 17 scanner drones. As it happens, the model is so convincing that it’s nearly impossible to watch it zip around without having an urge to smash it to pieces with a crowbar....

The Harris Health System in Houston reported Tuesday that one out of four patients in its two hospitals tested positive for COVID-19, prompting administrators to begin preparing tents for a surge of overflowing patients.

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. — NASCAR fans old and new will tell you that Alan Kulwicki represented the best of “old school” tradition while embracing the concept of progress and hard work. His NASCAR Cup championship career was simultaneously heralded by those watching his work and especially appreciated by the people competing against him in the garage. It was an unusual dichotomy of respect and awe. And while tragedy claimed his life in an April 1993 plane accident the weekend of the Bristol, Tenn....

Rocket has always been a memorable character, and Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy does a great job of spotlighting all the things that make him so iconic....

Second-place Liverpool welcome a City side one point and one place behind them in the title race, with both clubs heading into the contest buoyed by three consecutive wins. Nevertheless, Liverpool’s swashbuckling attacking play could present problems for a City defence which remains under scrutiny, despite clean sheets in recent victories over Watford and Hull City. Guardiola’s backline crumpled when Tottenham, Chelsea and Leicester City unleashed the type of pacey attack that Klopp has made his calling card at Liverpool and, when the two heavyweight coaches previously faced off, at Borussia Dortmund....

The champions have now taken just one point from three top-flight matches since retaining their crown at Hertha Berlin last month. Guardiola's side had dropped just four points all season prior to its coronation in the capital, but drew 3-3 with Hoffenheim and lost 1-0 at Augsburg before this weekend's humbling at the hands of second-placed Dortmund. "When you win the title, you suffer a dip," said the Spaniard. "It was the same for me at Barcelona....
