This also leads to members of older generations making fun of the ways that Gen Z communicate their ideas, which often leads to critiques of “woke” culture or adjacent conversations. This was actually the concern when the new film Bodies Bodies Bodies released its first trailers. They were full of young people using buzzwords like “privilege” and “triggered,” and this turned many off of seeing the film. It wasn’t as clear in the trailers, but Bodies Bodies Bodies actually uses this kind of language satirically, and actually does a good job of incorporating it into the humor of the movie without it feeling like an insult to a whole generation....

It’s not clear how the injury occurred, but the 25-year-old underwent surgery following the team’s game. Boedker, the Coyotes’ leading goal-scorer, is expected to miss 4-6 weeks with this injury.

Altimeters data are used in several systems such as for engines, flight controls, traffic alert, collision avoidance, ground proximity warning, autopilot systems, and detecting dangerous wind shears. Airlines are concerned because altimeters operate in the 4....

The low-key tactic worked well. The Jazz came out quickly in the third, eventually erased the Memphis Grizzlies’ double-digit lead and pulled away for a 103-94 victory Friday night to snap a two-game skid. Bojan Bogdanovic was key in the fourth quarter, scoring 16 of his 33 points in the game. “I’m glad we played the second half like we did, opposed to the first,” Snyder said. “We came out competitive and threw ourselves into the defense....

Bolt, who completed a ’treble treble’ of 100m, 200m and 4x100m Olympic titles at the 2016 Rio Games, had his 2008 relay gold stripped last month after team mate Nesta Carter’s re-tested sample showed traces of a banned substance. The 30-year-old Bolt also anchored the Jamaican relay team to his only Commonwealth Games gold in Glasgow in 2014 and organisers had hoped that he might extend his career to the next edition on the Gold Coast in April 2018....

Balandin’s form has nose-dived since he became his country’s first Olympic swim champion two years ago, and the triple Asian Games breaststroke gold medallist arrives in Jakarta as a clear underdog to Japan’s Yasuhiro Koseki and Ippei Watanabe. However, the Japanese pair have backed the Kazakh to rediscover his mojo. “Balandin took all three (breaststroke) gold medals last time,” said Koseki, who won silver behind the Kazakh in 2014 over 50 and 100 metres and finished runner-up to Russian Anton Chupkov in the 200m at last year’s world championships....

The president’s message was direct. There was no time to wait. The showdown with Saddam Hussein, the dictator of Iraq, had to start right away. It was the morning of September 4, 2002, and George W. Bush had summoned eighteen senior members of the House and Senate to the Cabinet Room of the White House. When the lawmakers took their seats at the imposing oval mahogany table, they were given copies of a letter from the president....

On his Hall of Fame podcast, Booker T commented on the recent releases, and the past ‘war’ between AEW and NXT. With AEW breezing past the black and gold brand in viewership numbers, the Hall of Famer feels WWE should revert to it being a platform for superstars to develop as performers. Booker T believes it is tough to sustain when focusing on something else. He thinks that NXT got a bit overcrowded as several indie stars were signed by WWE over the years....

Liesl Weisglass is instantly recognizable as the butt of a thousand Jewish-mother jokes. “She was godlike, bigger than God actually, because God never cooked for me,” says her son. When, as a grown man, he phones with the news that the love of his life has died of leukemia, she chides him for not calling sooner: “Dad called the hospital. They told us. A beautiful way to find out.” But Liesl is no cartoon....

But then, the last four games happened. Auburn lost all of them, including a frustrating game against South Carolina and a fiercely contested Iron Bowl that the Tigers led for much of. MORE: Quinn Ewers to transfer to Texas The Tigers have one game left — the Birmingham Bowl on Dec. 28 against No. 20 Houston — and a chance to finish above .500.

Some games on this list were technically pulled for copyright reasons. Others were so offensive they caused a public outcry.
