The place: the Estrela room on the penthouse level of the Parker-Meridien hotel. The spread: Excellent. Carafes of fruit juices and flaky croissants. The vibe: Gently throbbing Euro-pop background music. The speakers: Neva Rockefeller Goodwin and Peter O’Neill, members of the Rockefeller family who are pushing for changes in corporate governance at Exxon Mobil, the descendant of the Standard Oil company created by John D. Rockefeller. No family in American history has possessed more wealth, or been more conflicted about the obligations and benefits it bestows, than the Rockefellers, who are now enjoying their sixth generation of good fortune....

Did you get the idea to blog from a certain former co-worker? No. Every artist loves their own format. I certainly didn’t think this was mine. Are you and Rosie talking? We e-mail back and forth on a limited scale. Does your son support Hillary? That was a joke I made. Senator Clinton sent Taylor a personalized note after his birth, which was very nice. I jokingly said she has his vote....

Two of the three main factions, including the Federation, have their own suite of rewards for moving up in their ranks. Rewards come in the form of unlockable ships, access to engineers, and permits to permit-locked systems like Facece and Sol, easily one of the most beautiful systems to visit in Elite. For players who choose the Federation as their faction, here’s how to quickly move up in ranks and gain access to these rewards....

At the time DeGeneres apologized for the negative experiences of those working underneath her, and during the acceptance speech, she reiterated her appreciation for her staff. “I am not only accepting this award for myself, I’m accepting on behalf of my amazing crew, my amazing staff who make the show possible. They show up every single day, they give 100 percent of themselves, 100 percent of the time.” She also took a moment to address the fans: “I say thank you to the people, to all my fans, thank you for supporting me and sticking by me, I cannot tell you how grateful I am and what this means to me, it’s more than I could possibly tell you, especially now....

Gordon told Elliott and Hart of his difficult decision before Philadelphia’s outdoor practice under the lights Friday at Lincoln Financial Field. Hart said he was disappointed but hopes to respond and not let it set him back. The Flyers’ move up the standings from near the bottom of the Eastern Conference to the edge of the playoff race coincided with Hart being called up in December. The 20-year-old is 13-8-1 with a 2....

In a tweet sent at 11:10 a.m. EDT, Musk said that he was selling nearly all his possessions and wouldn’t own a home. “I am selling almost all physical possessions,” he wrote. “Will own no house.” The SpaceX CEO and Tesla co-founder also tweeted lyrics from “The Star Spangled Banner” after demanding that people be given back their freedom. Musk’s tweets appear to be a response to shelter-at-home orders placed by the government due to the coronavirus pandemic....

Why do you want to embed the font, you ask? The reason is if you ever opened the MS word document with a custom font, which is not embedded onto it, then you should know MS Word displays the content in the default font. It could make your document look less presentable and messy as well. That’s why it is necessary to embed the font in your MS Word document so that the customization done could be retained as it is supposed to....

Verratti and Kurzawa were both made to miss their respective national teams’ final World Cup qualifiers, with the Italian suffering from an unspecified issue and the France left-back picking up a knee problem. Thiago Silva managed to play a part in Brazil’s latest selection and featured against Bolivia, but he was then ruled out of their 3-0 win over Chile with a thigh strain. Emery is relieved to be able to confirm that none of them are serious problems, with Verratti able to feature against Dijon on Saturday, while the other two will be in contention for next Wednesday’s Champions League trip to Anderlecht....

Saturday’s Ligue 1 clash at home to Rennes will be Emery’s final match in charge of the domestic treble winners. Emery arrived in 2016, guiding PSG to Ligue 1 glory and back-to-back trophies in the Coupe de France, Coupe de la Ligue and Trophee des Champions. PSG failed to make an impact in the Champions League, though, suffering consecutive last-16 exits under the Spaniard. However, former Sevilla boss Emery insisted he will be all smiles as he reflected on his PSG tenure....

After all, Captain Marvel, Guardians of the Galaxy, and Thor have been slowly introducing new types of otherworldly threats for planet Earth. So, add in the huge pandora’s box that was Loki, and the MCU has a lot of ground to cover. Part of that includes next year’s Secret Invasion, which sees Clarke join Samuel L. Jackson to unravel the mystery of just what Nick Fury has been up to since Marvel Studios’ Spider-Man: Far From Home....

The Emmys have always had a soft spot for nominating programs in their swan-song season, so no one was surprised when “The Sopranos” came up the big winner this year, earning nods for best drama series, best lead actor (James Gandolfini), best lead actress (Edie Falco) and a trio of nominations in the supporting-actor categories (Aida Turturro, Lorraine Bracco and Michael Imperioli). “The Sopranos” also nearly swept the writing category, taking three of the five nominations handed out....

The team was able to keep its hopes of an undefeated run through the Hex alive, rallying to beat Trinidad and Tobago 3-1. In many ways, it was the same story we’ve seen throughout much of qualification with coach Juan Carlos Osorio’s teams. Mexico started strong, then hit a period where it didn’t seem to be connecting. Then, behind a furious late run, it ended up with a scoreline that maybe did reflect Mexico’s performance on the day, even if the worry that came with the thought of losing to the worst team left in qualification didn’t translate....

Higuain helps Juve take top spot In the context of Champions League Group H, Higuain’s sweet second-half strike was important, as it broke the deadlock in a game that the Bianconeri needed to win in order to ensure that they will be seeded in the last-16. However, it was also hugely significant for the fact that it ended a worrying run of four games without a goal. Not since November 2 had Higuain netted for Juve....

The trailer shows off the expanded set of “unique tools” available to the diver, not the least of which is the Pulsar, which will “heal and calm aquatic life.” Whether the tool was healing or calming the sharks in the video remains, for now, unclear. No one should worry about Blue World coming up short on the content side of the equation. Over 300 species of fish are present and accounted for....

While both sets of batsmen have been brilliant in the series so far, the bowlers on either side haven’t able to fulfil their potential on flat tracks. With the tricky dimensions of the ground in Nottingham, bowlers could play a pivotal role in determining the outcome of the game. Here are a few tips to help you pick your Dream11 team. Squads to choose from: England: Eoin Morgan (C), Joe Root, Jason Roy, Jonny Bairstow, James Vince, Ben Stokes, Jos Buttler, Moeen Ali, Chris Woakes, Adil Rashid, Liam Plunkett, Mark Wood, Jofra Archer, Chris Jordan, Joe Denly, Tom Curran, David Willey...

IPL 2021 was suspended in May after multiple cases of COVID-19 cases were reported in the tournament’s bio-bubble. The T20 league is set to resume in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) in September-October. However, at that point, England will be touring Bangladesh and Pakistan. In a BBC report, Jos Buttler confirmed that playing for England would come first if there is a clash of dates with the IPL. The 30-year-old was quoted as saying in this regard:...

February will see football return, of the American kind that is. The Elite Football League of India (EFLI) is back, and ahead of the upcoming second season later this year, enthusiasts of the game will get a chance to see the Indian teams in action in some exhibition matches. Titled the ‘Pre-season Kickoff’, the six Indian teams – Bangalore Warhawks, Delhi Defenders, Hyderabad Skykings, Kolkata Vipers, Mumbai Gladiators and Pune Marathas – will face off on February 8, 2014, at the Gachibowli Stadium in Hyderabad....

While the couple did discuss their new creative collaboration, Olsen was also asked what she knows about playing Scarlet Witch again.
