Puroast Low Acid Coffee: Our testers ranked this Venezuelan blend No. 1 for its “nutty aroma,” “robust flavor” and “smooth, almost chocolaty taste” ( puroast.com ). Folgers Simply Smooth: Procter & Gamble says it uses a special roasting process. Our testers called it “decent,” but with a “watered-down” flavor and surprising bitterness (in stores). Mind Your Tummy blend: More flavorful and well rounded than Folgers, but testers noted a slight bit-ter aftertaste ( coffeeam....

Killorn will sit out Game 3 of the series Friday in Edmonton. The league’s Department of Player Safety said in announcing the suspension that Killorn’s check in the first period Wednesday night was “a forceful hit from behind on a defenseless player who was no longer in possession of the puck.” Killorn was assessed a major and a game misconduct by referee Kelly Sutherland. Tampa Bay killed off the ensuing five-minute power play and went on to win the game 2-1....

Including the resiliency to overcome a third-period lapse that nearly cost them Monday night. Nikita Kucherov, Steven Stamkos and Victor Hedman scored in the shootout, and the NHL-leading Lightning shrugged off blowing a two-goal lead to beat the struggling Los Angeles Kings 4-3 for their ninth straight victory, matching the longest winning streak in franchise history. “It’s nice to win. It always feels good,” Stamkos said. “But like we’ve said before, it’s about more than wins for our group....

Make no mistake, it’s no accident that Wiggins was the best player on the floor in the Warriors’ win over the Celtics, but it’s the parallels you can draw to a performance put forth by his father 36 years prior that might boggle your mind just a bit. MORE: How Andrew Wiggins’ evolution has put the Warriors within striking distance of the title With a chance to move within one win of the first NBA title of his career, Wiggins seized the opportunity, leading Golden State to a Game 5 win over Boston with 26 points and 13 rebounds, all while playing stellar defense on All-NBA forward Jayson Tatum....

The 21-year-old’s new single “Montero (Call Me By Your Name)” is an explicit, flamboyant and “unapologetically gay” biblical romp that sees the singer literally dance with the devil—lap dance, that is. As well as the new track, the “Old Town Road” performer collaborated with art collective MSCHF to launch a controversial pair of “Satan Shoes” that feature a drop of real human blood. A spokesperson for the group told CNN that the blood had been provided by members of the art collective, saying: “We love to sacrifice for our art....

The motivation for this change is unclear, although Lenovo might sell both devices simultaneously. One advantage of Alexa is its integration with more smart home tech – everything from security cameras and thermostats to light bulbs and kitchen appliances can be controlled with your voice. The Google Assistant can do the same, but its selection is more limited. Aside from a glowing blue light when talking to Alexa, the new Smart Clock Essential is largely unchanged design-wise....

According to CBS Sports, Miles is on a short list of candidates being considered for the next coach at Baylor. Miles told CBS Sports he has made himself “available to search firms,” and is communicating the best he can in an effort to land another Power 5 job. MORE: Top candidates to replace Miles at LSU Baylor has hired search firm Eastman & Beaudine to help find a replacement for Art Briles, who was fired by Baylor in May in the wake of a sexual assault scandal that also cost school president Ken Starr and athletic director Ian McCaw their jobs....

LGBT rights groups and activists in France had advocated for a law like this since the country legalized same-sex marriage in 2013. Parliament debated the measure for two years, with the conservative Senate majority repeatedly blocking it. Fertility treatments were already provided to heterosexual couples at no cost in France. The new law will allow single women and lesbians to obtain such treatments as in vitro fertilization and artificial insemination....

New polling by Axios-Ipsos, published Tuesday, showed that just 19 percent of Americans would be very or somewhat likely to take a vaccine for the coronavirus if Trump vouched for its safety. However, a majority of respondents (62 percent) said they would take the vaccine if their doctor said it was safe, while 56 percent said they would if the cost was entirely covered by their health insurance. Trump critics have repeatedly raised concerns that the president is attempting to politicize the vaccine development process in hopes of getting one approved ahead of the November 3 election....

The war will be fought principally by four ultra-aggressive layers considered among the foremost expels in the field. “We have the gladiators from both sides of the DNA wars,” said Myrna Raeder. a DNA specialist at Southwestern Law School. For the state, prosecutors Rockne Harmon and George (Woody) Clarke will argue that, as Clarke says, “this technique doesn’t make mistakes.” Barry Scheck and Peter Neufeld, the duo of DNA defense lawyers from New York, will push the theme that “contamination” in the LAPD’s blood-collection procedure – if not outright tampering in the lab-rendered the DNA testing virtually worthless....

The French striker has now scored in his first three Premier League home games for the club, a record exemplifying his predatory instincts in the final third and showing why the Gunners have needed a striker of Lacazette’s calibre for several seasons. Alexis Sanchez ended last season with 24 goals and 11 assists, but even that impressive tally could have been higher if he had Lacazette playing alongside him. In the first game the duo have started together they showed mutual understanding and excellent individual moments that contributed to Arsenal’s victory....

Appearing on MSNBC’s Morning Joe on Thursday, Caroline Polisi—a longtime federal defense attorney and legal analyst—said Trump’s longstanding pattern of hyperbolic claims about his real estate holdings and other business assets presented a nightmare scenario for his defense team as it seeks to defend him against claims he misled regulators for his own financial gain. These included lying about the size and price of his own New York City penthouse—a price point that had never been achieved in American history, critics say—as well as the value of other real estate holdings he then used as leverage to secure loans and other financing mechanisms seemingly out of thin air....

As I interviewed teens in the aftermath of yesterday’s Santana High School shooting, I sensed a slight variation on Kidman’s mantra: You’re nothing if you’re not on the news. And if your fifteen minutes of fame just happen to come after your classmate guns down thirteen high school students-killing two-that’s just the way it is. Maybe I’m being too cynical. But the dozens of Santana High School students I spoke with were more pumped up over being on the local news than they were freaked out about the shootings themselves....

The Astros’ 5-3 victory over the Yankees on Tuesday hinged on Rule 5.09(a)(11), which was implemented correctly by home plate umpire Dana DeMuth, but which left New York grasping for straws. MORE: Every team’s greatest opening day performance ever On the key play, Astros shortstop Carlos Correa, who had already homered and driven in another run, dribbled a grounder up the first base line. Yankees reliever Dellin Betances fielded, and with Correa running on the grass between him and first baseman Mark Teixeira, lollipopped a throw into right field....

For much of Season 27 in 2021, Burton, 65, was among a number of stars who tried out to become the syndicated quiz show’s new host, following the November 2020 death of long-time presenter Alex Trebek. While Burton was a strong fan favorite going into his week-long stint, he saw the lowest ratings of all the guest hosts. The job subsequently—though very briefly—went to Richards, who was one of the show’s first guest presenters....

Entering the final matchday of the Bundesliga season with Bayern Munich having already clinched the league title and Lewandowski holding a commanding edge in the race for top scorer, neither are likely to be too disappointed by the 4-1 defeat to Stuttgart. Lewandowski claimed an assist during the contest but failed to find the net, meaning he finished the campaign on 29 goals; more than enough to finish top of the Bundesliga scoring charts for the third season in his career....

Formula 1 teams spend a large sum of money on spy photographers to capture images of rival teams during tests and race weekends. However, sometimes it takes the keen eye of a driver to carry out their own reconnaissance of rival cars. Drivers are often spotted walking around and taking peeks at other cars in parc ferme, post a qualifying or race session. In recent seasons, Lewis Hamilton and Sebastian Vettel have been at the forefront of spying on rival cars....
