The 23-year-old told First Coast News he was lying on his surfboard around 20 to 30 yards from the pier’s south side at the time. The attack, which lasted around 30 seconds, was the “craziest thing to have happened to me in my life,” he said. “I felt something jump out of the water and latch onto my arm by my elbow. It just grabbed onto me and thrashed in the water and swam away,” he told First Coast News....

The former Sasha Banks made her New Japan debut at Wrestle Kingdom 17, challenging the current IWGP Women’s Champion Kairi after her title defense. Naturally, her debut in NJPW, AEW’s international partner, has led some fans to believe she will be making her debut in the Tony Khan-led promotion sooner rather than later. If she were to make the jump, there would be an entirely new crop of talent for the WrestleMania main eventer to face....

No, despite heavy speculation on all three titles (with The Avengers procuring the most desire) after Marvel and High Moon Studios announced a partnership with Activision last week, teasing the reveal of a new game on July 14 at San Diego Comic-Con, the real identity of the project is one almost nobody saw coming: Hit Monkey, a video game adaptation of the young Marvel comic book series. A teaser website has appeared in the name of hitmonkeythegame....

The Grinnell Police Department released an official statement on their Facebook page regarding an alleged hate-based incident at the Grinnell Middle School in Iowa, in which a group of boys allegedly filmed themselves performing an antisemitic and anti-LGBTQ routine. “On May 5th, 2021 at 7:50 a.m. the Grinnell Police Department received a complaint from a citizen regarding a video posted on several social media platforms,” Chief of Police Michael McClelland wrote....

In a tweet Saturday afternoon, @NYPDSpecialops wrote, “While patrolling in the vicinity of Flushing Bay in Queens, #NYPD Harbor personnel were able to capture a quick video of some of New York City’s holiday tourists, a Dolphin pod.” While these sightings are rare, every so often a surprising ocean dweller makes an appearance in one of the Big Apple’s rivers and harbors. According to the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) both cetaceans (whales, dolphins, and porpoises) and pinnipeds (seals) inhabit the waters off the coast of New York City....

Though the idea might not be totally original, the “fully fleshed out resistance on the homeland” story has never been told quite like this. Using the idea of a resistance formed by the citizens of the U.S. drove the development team forward — serving as the inspiration for everything from the game’s missions to its weapons. One area that Homefront really shines is in its art direction. As is indicated by the diary, the development team worked hard to create moments that establish this game world as a familiar America, but one that has been struck by something horrible....

While this shouldn’t come as too big of a surprise, considering Microsoft’s proclivity for securing exclusive DLC, it does come as a shock to learn that a fledgling title like Homefront is following the suit of larger franchises. Just starting out as a potentially successful shooter franchise, it seems that Homefront publisher THQ would want as many gamers as possible to both play the game and download its DLC....

Helicopter combat and classic rock and roll immediately conjure up images of Apocalypse Now, which makes sense since the film’s writer is responsible for Homefront’s story. John Milius’ bitingly satiric and critical prose may not have seemed a perfect fit for a FPS, but the attitude and emotional drama glimpsed in the launch trailer shows gamers what they’ve been missing. We know that players will take the role of an American citizen fighting a Korean occupation of the homeland, and the latest live-action trailer for Homefront shows that the developers aren’t afraid of exploring even the most troubling or disturbing implications of that scenario....

According to the French outlet BFM TV, the attack took place on Saturday morning. The five deaths have been reported to be of four children and one adult.

Loews Hotels announced the cancellation plans as Hawley was set to hold a Valentine’s Day weekend re-election fundraiser at Loews Portofino Bay Hotel in Orlando, Florida.

One had to do with Daemon Targaryen (Matt Smith), the sinister brother of King Viserys Targaryen (Paddy Considine), while the other concerned Otto Hightower (Rhys Ifans), the recently deposed Hand of the King. The episode opens with Daemon visiting his estranged wife, Rhea Royce (Rachel Redford). The reunion is not a happy one, and it ends with Royce’s death, which Daemon perpetrated but staged to make it appear as if she were killed in a horse-riding mishap....

After meeting with Forte on the first day of free agency last winter, the Jets dragged their feet on closing the deal, as concerns lingered about the former Bear’s knee. The Jets’ lack of urgency made Forte anxious, and that evening he headed to the airport to board a New England-bound flight. MORE: Week 12 fantasy RB rankings That was all the Jets needed to hear, and the team put aside any worries about Forte’s health and signed him to a three-year, $12 million contract....

Now, we find ourselves in the midst of a global pandemic. COVID-19 has infected 5.4million and claimed the lives of nearly 170,000 in America, and those numbers continue to rise. Despite this, across the U.S. we are seeing many deny the severity of the virus, ignore scientific evidence and reject regulations suggested to curb the spread COVID-19, such as wearing masks. I have asked myself, why and how this could be possible?...

In my early twenties—which I believe are a crucial time for anyone’s personal development—I went through a depression and developed bulimia. It happened right after I left Poland for Spain to pursue my dream of going to university there and finding an exciting job in advertising. Instead, I ended up being disappointed with the degree, feeling very lonely and without a job. I knew that life quite often doesn’t happen as expected, and realized the problem wasn’t in the situations and people around me, but rather in the way I reacted to challenges in life....

Thrilled by the Nigerian striker’s qualities, the Liverpool legend disclosed that he is a big fan of the youngster and the Gers are in talks with the Giallorossi for a temporary switch....

Pep was pleasantly surprised by the reaction of Uli Hoeness and Kalle Rummenigge the day after the European Super Cup match in Prague. Bayern’s top executives had immediately sprung to his defence. “Mourinho’s comments are completely out of order … but then perhaps it was a different match he was watching.” The Chelsea coach had said: “Every time I play Pep I end up with 10 men. It must be some sort of UEFA rule....

Having been snapped up from Pescara in the summer of 2012, the combative 25-year-old midfielder has been a constant throughout an era of domestic dominance at Parc des Princes. His reputation and standing in the global game has risen throughout his time at PSG, with Verratti considered by many to be one of the finest exponents of his chosen position in world football. He is certainly held in the highest regard by those in Paris, although passionate supporters can take things to the extreme at times....
