Jozef, or Joe, didn’t discuss his past, and neither his daughter nor his wife ever asked. It was only as a grown woman that Kobak learned that her father was born in a Slovak village of Polish parents, who moved across the border to Poland when Joe was 13. She got her father to break his silence by traveling to Australia, where her parents had moved after she started her own family....
But then, suddenly and to the surprise of many, a softer, more appealing Marilyn Quayle emerged. After friends teased her about her 1950s hairdo, she switched to a gentler perm. Disaster relief continued to dominate her public calendar, but Mrs. Quayle found her voice in a more poignant cause: early detection and treatment of breast cancer. At a Dallas luncheon to raise money to fight the disease, she let down her guard in public, shocking even her closest friends....
Interestingly, the 22-time Grand Slam champion is accompanied by his wife Maria Francisca Perello and their newborn child this time around. Ahead of his first practice session in Melbourne, Nadal was spotted spending time with his son, holding him in his arms affectionately while talking to some friends. The 36-year-old has previously spoken about adapting to life as a father, stating that he and his wife have been trying to get more organized than usual so as to have a smooth transition....
To be a footnote is to know that at least one reader out there takes you seriously. Once a footnote, a writer is no longer just an author, but an authority. Television, in contrast, confers mere celebrity. To be a footnote is to achieve a kind of immortality, a posthumous existence in the pages of someone else’s book. But now a growing number of publishers – at Harvard and other university presses, yet – are abolishing footnotes because their marketing mavens say they scare the general reader off....
Still, there is hope for consumers: Claritin’s patent will expire on Dec. 19, meaning that cheaper generic versions are on their way. Then perhaps allergy sufferers will truly breathe more easily.
But if we really love the party that brings us prosperity, how come Gore isn’t waltzing home? Almost all of us are better off than we were eight years ago. We’ve done particularly well since 1995. The apparent dead heat, this close to Election Day, raises the question of whether we’re as happy with this expansion as we say. No one can doubt the gains. Jobs are easy to get....
In states with some of the largest Latino electorates in the country, including Florida, Texas and Arizona, GOP-led bills seek to curtail voting. In Florida, Republicans are considering banning ballot drop boxes and increasing limits to voting by mail. In Texas new proposals would severely restrict early voting hours and ways people could vote early. In Arizona, a formerly-red state like Georgia, which Democrats just barely flipped in November, new bills would purge infrequent voters from the early-voting list and also shorten the early voting period....
Note that you can only speed up videos that you record in that moment via the Instagram app. If you want to speed up something you recorded earlier, you will need to edit it with a third-party app. 0. 3x 0. 5x 1x 2x 3x 0. 3x 0. 5x 1x 2x 3x Because Reels can be made up of multiple clips, you may repeat this process as many times as you would like, even using different speed settings for each clip, until you are happy with the finished product....

The player posted their video online, which began by showing a fairly uneventful flight above Los Santos International Airport. Soon enough, though, it is disrupted by an incoming missile and the beeping that warns about the homing missile locking onto the plane. Fortunately, perhaps thanks to quick reflexes, luck, or both, the anti-aircraft missile never seems to catch up with the plane. Thus, this unintended GTA jet stunt had a happy ending - at least as far as the video shows....
Most teams have opted to bat first after winning the toss at the SCG, but India decided to get the most out of the surface, which had a tinge of green, early on. With a few key players missing out from the clash due to injuries, it was a new-look Australian side with Matthew Wade at the helm that took to the field. Matthew Wade powers Australia to a formidable total in the first innings In the absence of David Warner and Aaron Finch, a new-look opening combination was set to take centre stage at the iconic venue....
The 33-year-old Lyon comes in as replacement for 21-year-old all-rounder Cameron Green, who was released to represent Australia A in a 3-day warm-up game against India A from December 6-8 at the Drummoyne Oval in Sydney. Nathan Lyon has undoubtedly been Australia’s best-ever off-spinner. In 96 Test matches, he has scalped 390 wickets at an average of 31.59, including eighteen 5-wicket hauls and three 10-wicket tallies. But he has hardly any T20I numbers to speak of....
Umesh Yadav’s calf muscle injury has left India to choose between Thakur or Navdeep Saini for the third Test against Australia, starting on Thursday (January 7). Shardul Thakur is known to swing the ball in the air, while Navdeep Saini is a tall bowler who delivers with pace and hits the deck hard. Speaking on Sports Today, Pragyan Ojha shed light on the contrast, while adding the team management would understand the situation better....
On Friday, Marnus Labuschagne asked Shubman Gill who his favourite player was when the latter was trying to focus at the crease against Mitchell Starc. Gill was on strike, facing Starc when Labuschagne, fielding at short-leg, attempted to distract him by asking who his favourite player was. The answer didn’t really quench Marnus Labuschagne’s curiosity as he continued to chirp, sporting a smile: The chatters didn’t really have an effect on the 21-year-old Indian batsman, who continued to attack the Australian bowlers with an attractive array of strokes....
Wasim Jaffer tagged four pictures in a cryptic tweet addressed to wicket-keeper Rishabh Pant and spinners Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja. The first photo is simply of a man singing. Then, in a witty dig at Warner and his penchant for Tik Tok videos, Jaffer put a photo from a Telugu song, ‘ButtaBomma’. David Warner had made a short dance video with his wife and daughter on the same song last year....
Axar Patel looked in line to make his Test debut in Chennai on Friday. Indian skipper Virat Kohli had also hinted that the left-arm spinner is almost a like-for-like replacement for Ravindra Jadeja, who is currently out injured. Left-arm orthodox spinner Shahbaz Nadeem and leg-spinner Rahul Chahar have been added to the Indian squad. The duo are part of the standby group of players, who have been training with Team India....
Kuldeep Yadav didn’t get a single game in the recently-concluded Border-Gavaskar Trophy despite a plethora of injuries in the Indian camp. In contrast, Sundar grabbed his opportunity with both hands by contributing with both bat and the ball on his Test debut at the Gabba. Speaking to Sports Today, Pragyan Ojha said that although the 21-year-old performed extremely well Down Under, Team India already have an off-spinner in the experienced Ravichandran Ashwin....
