While the magician is known for ambitious tests of endurance, like living in a block of ice for a week or being surrounded by Tesla coils, his latest stunt is fit for a Pixar movie. It still requires him to go through extensive training, but since Blaine has said that this stunt is helping him fulfill a lifelong dream it’s doubtful he minds. In a trailer for the project, Blaine spoke about it as a childhood fantasy....

Georgia Sen. David Perdue is seeking re-election in a campaign that could determine control of the U.S. Senate. He’s doing so during a pandemic that has created hardship for ordinary workers, even as the wealthy have become more so.

Perhaps, the spectators at theaters and movies are completely different from those at cricket stadiums, or may be they don’t expect similar kind of entertainment from sports. Either way, the underlying fact remains that people do not watch cricket with the same generosity as films. One man who would be complaining, rather cursing the not-so-liberal approach towards cricket is none other than Australia’s angry young man, David Warner. The hot-headed star would be fussing about the stringent restrictions of the Gentleman’s Game that aims to maintain its gentleness....

Warner, who flew from Perth to Sydney following Australia’s win over India in the first One-Day on Monday to be with Candice, revealed the couple had named their second daughter Indi Rae.

That pivotal stretch seemed to mark the end of Davis’ recent shooting slump and the end of losing basketball for the New Orleans Pelicans. Davis had 32 points, 15 rebounds and four blocks in his best game since spraining his right elbow nearly two weeks ago, and New Orleans ended a six-game skid with a 107-98 victory over the Chicago Bulls on Wednesday night. “I don’t think it was entirely the elbow,” Davis said....

Waltrip suggested making the move during an appearance this week, according to The Tennessean.
