MORE: SN Preseason Top 25 | 12 questions for 2016 season This week, senior associate athletic director Rocky Harris mentioned during a Twitter Q&A session the Pac-12 school is open to expanding alcohol sales beyond the suites and club areas at Sun Devil Stadium in Tempe. “That is the trend in college athletics and we are analyzing future expansion of concession offerings,” Harris said. The sale of alcohol in general concessions provides a valuable revenue source for schools and their athletic departments....

The idea of the Verrou travelled places and it reached the Italian peninsula in the 40′s. Nereo Rocco pioneered the system with Triestina and led them to a surprising third place finish in the Serie A. In the 50′s, it was Rocco again who made optimum use of the system, now termed as Catenaccio, with Padova, by getting the collective best out of the seemingly limited resources at his disposal....

In the space of only eight hours I was pulled out of line, patted down, wanded and, not to be coy, generally felt up at two major airports. Twice, actually, at Chicago’s O’Hare alone, once at the end of a security-checkpoint line reminiscent of what our ancestors experienced at Ellis Island and again at the gate. “Do you mind if I feel your back?” said a woman in uniform. “If I mind, does that mean I spend the day with an FBI agent in a room painted the color of overcooked broccoli?...

Jonathan Pentland, 42, a U.S. Army sergeant first class stationed at Fort Jackson, was charged with third-degree assault and battery on Wednesday, according to Richland County Sheriff’s Department in South Carolina. The charges came after Pentland was filmed repeatedly demanding that a young Black man leave a neighbourhood near Columbia and threatening him with violence. At one point, Pentland was seen shoving the young man hard in the shoulder, causing him to almost fall to the ground....

The Black Knights and Midshipmen will face off in a men’s and women’s basketball doubleheader Jan. 23 at Madison Square Garden, they announced Monday. Both academies have played at the Garden before, but not for decades. Army’s men most recently played there during the 1985-86 season, and Navy last played there in 1971-72. Neither academy is known for its basketball prowess, thanks in large part to height restrictions on recruits....

The world champion’s total of 700 points during the ranking round at the Sambodromo venue eclipsed the previous record of 699 set by compatriot Im Dong-hyun at the London Olympics four years ago. Although he dazzled his Olympic rivals and thrilled the small crowd in the terraces, the poker-faced Kim played down his achievement. “Getting the world record is very important but tomorrow’s matches are more important,” the 24-year-old told reporters as sweat dripped from his brow under a hot sun....

Archive 81 is loosely adapted from a 2016 podcast of the same name and developed for television by Rebecca Sonnenshine, who previously wrote a few episodes of The Boys and Vampire Diaries. Half of the episodes were directed by Rebecca Thomas, who previously directed an episode of Stranger Things and the film Electrick Children, two were crafted by hugely important Saudi Arabian film director Haifaa al-Mansour, and two were directed by Justin Benson and Aaron Moorhead, of Synchronic and The Endless....

Types of Sugar Substitutes The term “sugar substitute” refers to both naturally sweet compounds other than table sugar (sucrose) and artificially synthesized sweeteners produced through chemical synthesis. Naturally sweet compounds include substances like sorbitol found in apples and corn syrup, lactose found milk, and xylitol found some fruits and vegetables. They are inherently sweet substances with varying degrees of sweetness. Artificially synthesized compounds do not come from nature and include such popular brands as Equal (aspartame), Splenda (sucralose), and Sweet’N Low (saccharin)....

After Manchester City’s 1-1 draw at home to Stoke City, Chelsea’s gap at the top of the Premier League stays at 10 points with only 11 games left to play. Conte’s side look to have constructed an unassailable lead, but how does his first season stack up against Mourinho’s maiden term at Stamford Bridge? Man United must show their mettle Mourinho’s 2004-05 league-winning Chelsea side broke a host of records as the “Special One” masterminded the club’s first title triumph for 50 years....

Currently, providers offer two kinds of wallets for crypto owners to use: custodial and non-custodial wallets. But custodial wallets may actually be a risky option for keeping your crypto safe. What Is a Crypto Wallet? Before we dive into custodial wallets and what they offer, let’s run over a quick recap of what a crypto wallet actually is. Unsurprisingly, a common misconception held by many is that crypto wallets literally store your cryptocurrency, but this is not the case....

You’ll also learn about when treatment for PVCs may be indicated, and what those therapy options entail.

It was an odd ending to a curious game. Which isn’t to say it wasn’t fitting. This result, 104-100 in favor of Cleveland, evened the Cavs’ first-round playoff series against the Pacers at two games each. There is little doubt that had this gone the other way, the Cavs would would have been unable to muster the three consecutive victories necessary to advance. The victory essentially saved Cleveland’s season....

However, some retailers are keen to make the most of shoppers looking to grab deals during the public holiday, so Newsweek has swept the internet to find out which stores are open and which are not.

The 2018 NFL season for the Denver Broncos has been a very disappointing one thus far. Currently at a record of three wins and five losses, the Broncos would need to win out to even have a shot at a wild-card berth. Given their luck this season, that would be like asking our politicians to actually work together to find actual solutions. From turnovers to bad penalties to missed opportunities, you name it and it has happened....

(As an aside, I’m not forgetting Zdeno Chara. The reality is he turns 38 this season, and he’s likely running into the end of his career.) The group of four above is an interesting one. I think P.K. Subban and Drew Doughty have more than established themselves as exceptional two-way defenders. Shea Weber’s an interesting case. He’s a guy you obviously avoid at all costs if you’re carrying the puck into the offensive zone, and his shot is about as terrifying as it gets....

Messi, who missed a penalty in Argentina’s draw against Iceland in their opening Group D match, was frustrated for much of Thursday’s clash with Croatia, as a 3-0 defeat put Sampaoli’s side on the brink of an early exit. Sampaoli has an array of attacking talent at his disposal, but has struggled to make it click, with Messi often tasked with directing all of Argentina’s play. While Messi is yet to get off the mark in Russia, rival Ronaldo has netted four times in two games, with his blistering header securing victory for Portugal against Morocco on Wednesday....
