As soon as Melvin even approached, the umpire tossed him from the game. Melvin argued the San Diego Padres out should stand. However, the call was eventually ruled in violation of the home plate collision rule. Up until the 2014 MLB season, runners were allowed to run into the catcher during plays at the plate. Catchers were also allowed to block the entirity of the plate as well. Due to risk of injury, however, this was banned, and now catchers must give opposing runners a clear path to home plate....

Nope. It turns out that the production schedule for “My Life” was so rushed that the index was cobbled together in just a few days. In fact, the book contains scores of typographical errors. The final line of the entire book, for instance, refers to others bearing no responsibility for “the failure of my life…” Later printings have already changed it to “the failures of my life.” I knew the explanation for the incomplete “Clindex” was haste and sloppiness when I saw the names of Warren Buffett and Bill Gates in the book....

She died recently at the age of 89, and my sister and I were reminiscing. This is one of our favorite stories involving our mother....

Since the current school year began, tens of thousands of students have been sent into quarantine or self-isolation because of COVID-19 exposure. Schools in some districts and states, including Massachusetts, California, and Utah, have adopted a “test-to-stay” or modified quarantine approach: Students who have been exposed to COVID-19 but are asymptomatic can stay in class, as long as they test negative for seven days. “If you put this policy into effect in coordination with several other critical steps, you should have an excellent chance of catching anyone before they pose a significant additional risk of transmission to others,” Stanley Weiss, MD, an epidemiologist and professor at Rutgers New Jersey Medical School and Rutgers School of Public Health, tells Verywell....

Aaron Brown found the Burmese python on the family residence in Zolfo Springs in Hardee County, WTVT reported. “I drove past it and said, ‘That’s a big snake’. I had my mother with me and she said, ‘Well, get out and get it.’ I said, ‘You get out and get it. If that joker catches me, you can’t help me.’” Burmese pythons are one of the largest species of snakes in the world and are usually found in southeast Asia, but are an invasive species elsewhere, including the Florida Everglades....

The poster for The Amazing Spider-Man revealed the game yesterday, confirming that it’s based off the movie, and today, the first teaser trailer for the game has leaked… and to everyone’s surprise, it looks bad-ass. One of the biggest complaints of Shattered Dimensions and Edge of Time is that Spider-Man can’t freely swing around the world. That’s what he’s all about and not letting players do that… well, that’s not good Spider-Man gameplay....

What Is ‘The Ascent’ The action RPG is set in a far-flung world that is presided over by a series of megacorporations. This planet is so remote (and so expensive to reach) that any aspiring residents are forced to enter indentured contracts with one of the ruling companies, just so that they can arrive there in the first place. In other words, races from across the galaxy are voluntarily signing their lives away for a chance at making it in the big city....

NEWSWEEK: Do you think the U.S. has provided enough support for the Global Fund [the international agency created in 2002 to coordinate international efforts to fight AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria]?

The crowd claps along to the song and showers her with applause, while Charles appears angry, watching his wife soak it all in. So, did this performance, showcasing Diana’s dancing skills actually happen?...
