The competition in Chueca, an LGBT-friendly neighborhood in central Madrid, has drawn dozens of domestic and international competitors of all ages. Both male and female runners wear shoes with a minimum heel height of 10 centimeters, or about 4 inches. “I’m a little nervous because I think people are serious about this,” said one runner to Global News. “In Washington, it was more fun but I look at the other competitors and I feel like they’re very serious about this....

According to the Idaho Statesman,the Caldwell School District was forced to end its football game against Emmett High School at halftime, after Bundy appeared at the game and refused to wear a mask or leave school grounds. “A small group of visitors refused to wear face coverings as required of spectators on our campus. They were denied admittance to the game. These visitors were directed to a neighboring park where they could watch without face coverings,” the Caldwell School District wrote in a statement....

The Red Giants fans’ delight in the return of Amri Yahyah to Selangor, in their Super League match against Pahang on Wednesday, was taken down a peg when they were defeated 2-0 by the Tok Gajah at the Selayang Municipal Stadium. When met by Goal following the match, the Malaysia forward expressed his disappointment at the defeat, which he said happened due to the failure of Selangor to dominate the encounter....

Ajax announced the change - which comes following an agreement between the club’s board, the mayor of Amsterdam and the alderman for sports and recreation in the city - on Tuesday. Cruyff’s legacy must not be forgotten Cruyff passed away in March 2016 following a battle with cancer. He was part of the legendary Ajax side of the 1970s that won three European Cups, pioneering ’total football’ with the Amsterdam club and Netherlands, who he helped reach the World Cup final in 1974....

Cute. But then, lots of viewers agree, so is Martin Lawrence-the guy who plays the guy on “Martin,” the Fox Broadcasting sitcom that ran episode one of the stunt last week. Lawrence also works other turf. He’s a stand-up comic with one of the raunchiest acts around, riffing about “the man-woman thing” everywhere from Radio City Music Hall (he just finished five sold-out gigs) to Home Box Office (as host of HBO’s “Def Comedy Jam”)....

Minnesota Senator Amy Klobuchar joined Chris Evans and Mark Kassen to discuss the government’s role in breaking up monopolies and the history and consequences of antitrust laws. More than 45 states and the federal government have filed multiple lawsuits against Big Tech companies like Google and Facebook, alleging they have eliminated, defeated or simply bought competition in a manner that stifles competition and innovation, which translates into higher prices for advertisers and consumers....

Behind-the-scenes photos have been shared from the set in central London, England. The images show actress Marisa Abela, who’s playing the late singer, and actor Eddie Marsan walking through London, but the brief glimpse has given some enough information to form a harsh judgment of the movie. Fifty Shades of Grey director Sam Taylor-Johnson is directing the biopic. There is currently no release date on the project, but the behind-the-scenes images taken by Neil Mockford saw people commenting on the quality of the movie....

We tend to hold France to this unattainable standard of taste and sophistication and well mannered living, when in fact, if you live here (or anywhere) on a day to day basis, you eventually take the rose colored glasses off and appreciate your surroundings for different reasons based on a new set of criteria. For me, France isn’t pristine nor is it unattainable. It’s weird and complicated and contradictory and sometimes even vulgar - just like everyday life everywhere else....

For example, X-Ray is prominent within Prime Video, where it’s used to display information about the movie or show that you’re watching. It can tell you the actors within the scene, what music is playing, or just some interesting tidbits about the production. To access the feature, all you need to do is swipe up from the bottom on songs where you see the X-Ray label. The song will keep playing and you can then swipe through a series of screens to check out the facts....

Though it’s not set in stone, if the event does take place in June then it’s apparently likely to me in the middle to latter part of the month. Curiously, June would be a month earlier than Prime Day is usually held. It could be that the company wants to boost sales in the second quarter of the year, in order to ease comparisons against 2020’s pandemic spending.

I know you and your ingenius plan have been mocked and some critics have even set up an Operation Tips Web site to encourage people to spy on the very people who would spy on other people. But I want to help. My problem is that in my current occupation–my job description refers to me as a “Guy Who Sits Around Commenting on Everything”–I really don’t come in contact with people, and if I did, they certainly wouldn’t be the really nasty people who are secret al Qaeda operatives....

Americans are rightfully annoyed. I mean, it’s one thing to put slave-owning Sudan on a human-rights commission, but how dare they kick us off that drug panel! We’re the world’s largest consumer of narcotics, for Pete’s sake! Shouldn’t we have the largest say in how they’re distributed? Of course, the U.N. does seem to want the U.S. represented on at least one commission, namely the High Commission to Soak Rich Countries....

I’m talking, of course, about The Burger War. Perhaps you don’t need more evidence that Manhattan Island is not merely literally cut off from the rest of America, but here’s another example anyway: The owner of a fancy restaurant in Midtown (how fancy? Well, he named it after himself – but only using his initials. And in small letters, too!) has just unveiled a hamburger that costs $50. The $50 hamburger at Daniel Boulud’s db Bistro Moderne is crafted from ground sirloin, stuffed with foie gras and braised short ribs and topped with shaved black truffles (because, let’s face it, an unshaven black truffle is so uncouth)....

And they were made in a bagel store by trained bagel professionals. But today, of course, you can get a “fresh” bagel almost anywhere: the global donut chain, the multi-national pizzeria, the corner gas station. If you’ve got the space for one of these new-fangled “steam” ovens between the undulating hot dog machine and the cans of Mobil 1, you’re a bagel store. These are trying times for lovers of real bagels....

But Brooks bucked those trends Sunday, as he opened the scoring for Hertha Berlin against Augsburg. In the 12th minute, a partially cleared corner fell to Valentin Stocker. The Swiss international delivered a drive into the area and Brooks redirected it home for the 1-0 lead. Berlin went on to win the contest 2-0, as it continues to chase European football next season. Goals aside, it is shaping up to be the defender’s best season with his club....

Pulisic’s spell on the Dortmund bench this winter came to an end when Reus went down with a thigh injury, with the teenager finding arguably the best form of his young career in the six weeks his teammate was out. So with Reus returning to the side, it would not have been shocking to see Pulisic drop out of the lineup. Instead Thomas Tuchel left the two in together and the move paid instant dividends against Eintracht Frankfurt, as Pulisic was able to find Reus with a low cross, which the German expertly flicked home with a backheel redirection....

On Tuesday, local news broadcaster WKBN 27 News reported that Californians had been “flooding” into Northern Baja looking to buy toilet paper, water, and other items. The desperate attempt to stock up on supplies comes as stores around the world have seen aisles holding toilet paper, soap, and other sanitary supplies, left empty by shoppers afraid they may be unable to get these supplies as the coronavirus pandemic worsens....
