Seattle jumped out to a 17-10 halftime lead in its Week 1 home opener, and didn’t let up in the second half to pull away from the Green Bay Packers, 36-16. Quarterback Russell Wilson (19-of-28, 191 yards, 2 TDs) was super sharp, Percy Harvin (11 touches, 100 yards) was super fast and Marshawn Lynch looked super strong (20 carries, 110 yards, 2 TDs) right out of the gate. Facing the challenge of the Packers’ own high-powered triplets of Aaron Rodgers, Jordy Nelson and Eddie Lacy, it was appropriate for cornerback Richard Sherman — not being tested on the side opposite Nelson — and the defense to take a rare back seat....

Bean is perhaps best known for his fantasy roles in both Game of Thrones and The Lord of the Rings. In the first of Jackson’s three film adaptations of the beloved J.R.R. Tolkien book series, Bean played Boromir, the steward prince of Gondor and one of the nine members of the fellowship of the ring. Boromir was savagely killed near the end of the film by the Uruk-hai leader Lurtz while protecting Hobbits Mary and Pippin....

While we wait for the impending World Cup, let us take a look at some frank season reviews for all the 20 teams that took part in this season’s Premier League. 20 – Cardiff City As a United fan, I can only feel sorry for Ole Solskjaer. Cardiff were always one amongst the favorites to get relegated given their eccentric owner Vincent Tan. If you could’ve had a competition asking managers to sign the worst possible players ever, Cardiff would’ve won that with ease....

Principal Damon Pearce said in a letter to students and families on Tuesday that New Britain High School is “hitting the refresh button” and will restart the school year. Hartford Mayor Erin Stewart said the school was having issues with out-of-control vandalism and fighting. “I’m disappointed in this decision, it’s not fair to the majority of students who behave respectfully and want to be in school to learn,” Stewart, a Republican, said in a Facebook post....

In an online message seen by Newsweek and posted Wednesday dubbed “What We Know About Teacher in Video and Next Steps,” The Natomas Unified School District said it investigated not only the video but other irregularities. The notice does not name the teacher, though he is identified in the video as Inderkum High School advanced-placement government teacher Gabriel Gipe. District administrators said they will be “taking the legally required next steps to place the teacher on unpaid leave and fire the teacher....

The Fire announced the deal on Tuesday, ensuring a third campaign for the German superstar. There had been some doubt about his return, with retirement or return to Europe real possibilities, but the allure of trying to win a championship with the Fire and the desire to help the team rebound from a disappointing 2018 season convinced him to return. “Let’s raise a trophy. I believe in this club and I believe that we can be champions,” Schweinsteiger said in a team-issued statement....

A pilot, a cop and some businessmen, housewives, and children all say they saw a UFO on Jan. 8. The spaceship moved over the area for several seconds, witnesses said, and then zoomed away 300 times faster than a Cessna jet can travel. UFO sightings make the news several times a year. In 2007 eight such episodes attracted headlines. Most sightings take place in the South and West. UFO spotters endure endless jokes about their experiences....

Microplastics, tiny plastic particles that can be harmful to marine animals when ingested, settle at the bottom of waterways and are hard to remove from the environment. Chinese scientists have developed a small, self-propelled robot that can “swim” into the oceans’ hard-to-reach spots and clean them up. Xinxing Zhang and his fellow researchers wanted to create a durable new material for the robot as elastomers and hydrogels, commonly used for making soft robots, are easily damaged in marine environments....

A new study found that phthalates, a group of industrial chemicals used to make plastics softer, are often present in foods like pizzas, hamburgers, and chicken nuggets. “Phthalates are found in a lot of packaging, processing, and handling equipment,” Lariah Edwards, PhD, a George Washington University researcher who co-wrote the study, told Verywell. She added that the chemicals can travel from plastic gloves or conveyor belts to food products....

Jellyfish are primitive animals which evolved in the oceans around 600 million years ago. Part of the reason for their evolutionary success is that some species are able to grow back tissue that has been lost—a trait that is rare in the animal kingdom. To learn more about this poorly understood ability, a team of researchers from Tohoku University in Japan investigated the biology of a jellyfish species known as Cladonema pacificum—which has tentacles that spread out like tree branches—for a study published in the journal PeerJ....

Costa was able to represent Brazil, but the former Atletico Madrid man decided he wanted to play for the Spanish national side and made his debut in March, playing the full ninety-minutes to defeat Italy 1-0. Costa, set to join Chelsea this summer, was slammed by Scolari at the time for picking the Spain team over Brazil and the former Chelsea manager insists he would have selected Costa in his 23-man party....

Most of the series feature the gang solving a mystery and stopping a person, who is posing as a monster, from committing a crime. But, on occasion, there have been instances where the meddling kids were up against more than just an evil man or woman in a mask. Occasionally, the monsters were real. 10 The 13 Ghosts Of Scooby-Doo This often forgotten Scooby-Doo series ran for one season in 1985....

Dawson recently posted on Twitter that the duo was going away for a while whilst their contract situation was resolved and nothing has been said about the team since. That being said, Dash Wilder posted a video on his Instagram last night wherein the duo pointed out how frustrated they were with the current Tag Team division.

“The flight of a suspected misdemeanant does not always justify a warrantless entry into a home,” Justice Elena Kagan wrote in the court’s majority opinion of Lange v. California, 20-18. “An officer must consider all the circumstances in a pursuit case to determine whether there is a law enforcement emergency.” “On many occasions, the officer will have good reason to enter—to prevent imminent harms of violence, destruction of evidence, or escape from the home,” she continued....

They were the words of Leeds United’s first team coach and development boss Neil Redfearn, a man better positioned than many to make an informed assessment of Sam Byram, Leeds’ versatile right-back. Redfearn had played a key role in developing Byram from the signing of his first professional deal last May to an integral member of Leeds’ squad and such as been the progress of the 20 year old, Redfearn’s disapproval of his omission from last season’s PFA Championship Team Of The Year may be seen as valid....
