Mlb Wrap Giants Throw Wrench Into Trade Deadline With Sweep Of Rockies

With San Francisco’s 11-8 win over the Rockies on Wednesday, the Giants swept a four-game series over Colorado and are now a half-game up on the Rockies for third in the West.

Mls All Star Game 2017 Madrid S Super Subs Put On Real Show In Penalty Shootout

Then again, Real didn’t want to leave the United States with a fourth consecutive defeat on its exhibition tour, particularly not to a pickup team of Major League Soccer All-Stars. So when the two sides in the MLS All-Star Game were tied 1-1 after 90 minutes and a penalty shootout became necessary to declare a winner, Real rolled out an almost unfair quartet of superheroes to take its kicks: Karim Benzema, Gareth Bale, Mateo Kovacic and, to clinch, Marcelo....

Moleskine Erases Taiwan From Diaries After Listing It As Province Of China

Until 2019, the company’s popular weekly planners simply used “Taiwan,” but in 2020 that changed to “Taiwan (Province of China).” This year, Moleskine journals don’t mention Taiwan at all, stripping it from the global holidays and dialing codes sections. For the final two years that Moleskine continued to display Taiwan’s public holidays among 44 countries and regions including Hong Kong, some dates were also misleading. In 2020, Taiwan’s holidays supposedly included October 1, the anniversary of the founding of the People’s Republic of China in Beijing....
