After 11 seasons and more than two decades on HBO , Emmy voters are still finding “ Curb Your Enthusiasm ” to be, in Larry David parlance, “pretty … pretty … pretty good.” Since the comedy series’ debut in 2000, “Curb” has amassed a staggering 51 nominations — including two wins — with the most recent season adding four noms to its total. After 110 episodes, “Curb’s” tightly plotted yet semi-improvised approach remains fresh and admired enough to continue its enviable showing at the Emmys, not to mention a point of pride to executive producer and showrunner Jeff Schaffer.

Trump in “very substantial legal jeopardy” after FBI search: Conway
Conservative lawyer George Conway said Friday that former President Donald Trump could face legal problems after the FBI raided his Mar-a-Lago residence in Florida on Monday to retrieve classified documents that the ex-president allegedly took with him when he left the White House last year. During his interview, CNN anchor Erin Burnett asked the lawyer whether or not he thinks Trump is in trouble after the raid, in which Conway responded: "Yeah, I think he's in very substantial legal jeopardy." "If anybody else had done this, as I said last night on your show, if a national security adviser had done this, if an assistant to the president had done this, if I had done this or you had done this, we'd probably be already charged," he added. The FBI, with the approval of Attorney General Merrick Garland , carried out a search warrant of Mar-a-Lago looking for top secret (TS) and sensitive compartmentalized information (SCI) as well as other classified documents. The … [Read more...] about Trump in “very substantial legal jeopardy” after FBI search: Conway

A video showing social media star Bobby Kataria’s smoking inside an airplane has once again triggered the questions: is virality on social media platforms leaking over into the real world, causing serious concerns, and how far is too far?

How Birmingham 2022 CWG Fuelled Dreams of Rich Indian Haul at Paris 2024 Olympics
As success breeds more success, India will be hoping that the 61 medals that its athletes bagged at the recently-concluded Commonwealth Games in Birmingham will lead to its best-ever performance at the next Olympic Games in Paris in 2024. What gives them the confidence to entertain such a dream is the fact that the country bagged 61 medals, just a few short of the 66 it had bagged at the Commonwealth Games in Gold Coast in 2018, without any contribution from shooting, which was not included in the Birmingham Games. The shooters had contributed 16 medals to India’s Gold Coast tally of 66, and the fact that we came so close to matching it in Birmingham proves that Indian athletes have made great progress in other sports too and portends to a good haul in Paris. India has usually done well in the Olympics after putting up a good show in the Commonwealth Games — like the 101-medal haul of CWG 2010 was followed by India claiming six medals at the London Olympics in 2012 — two silver … [Read more...] about How Birmingham 2022 CWG Fuelled Dreams of Rich Indian Haul at Paris 2024 Olympics

Man Utd’s desperate striker search includes 9 stars as names ‘keep coming’
With less than a month of the transfer window remaining, Manchester United are still yet to add a striker to their ranks. Christian Eriksen started as the most advanced player in the opening-weekend defeat against Brighton . However, aside from the Danish international, new manager Erik ten Hag has only been able to bring in defenders Tyrell Malacia and Lisandro Martinez. United were looking light up front even before a hamstring injury ruled Anthony Martial out of the Brighton game. Cristiano Ronaldo only appeared from the bench, having been used sparingly in pre-season, while the club have yet to replace Edinson Cavani after the Uruguayan's summer departure, but there have been plenty of players linked with the club. One of the more recent names to be linked with a move to Old Trafford is Spain frontman Alvaro Morata. The Atletico Madrid man struggled towards the end of his last Premier League stint at Chelsea , but recent reports suggest he could be available … [Read more...] about Man Utd’s desperate striker search includes 9 stars as names ‘keep coming’
Exclusive — Carl Paladino: Susan Rice Likely Behind Mar-a-Lago Raid
Deep State types such as Susan Rice are likely behind the FBI’s raid of former President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home, Carl Paladino, a Republican upstate New York businessman who is running for Congress in New York’s 23rd Congressional District, told Breitbart News Saturday . He contended that it would have to be someone other than President Biden, who “isn’t there” but, rather, is vacationing “all the time.” “RINOs” do not want change in Washington, DC, Paladino said as he described the current Republican Caucus in the House as a “disaster,” pointing to the Trump era as an example of how to get things done. “People admired him [Trump] for that tenacity,” going after the system every day, Paladino said, particularly “fighting the Washington swamp.” “[If] he had another term, [he] would be able to do wonderful things for this country,” the candidate said, explaining that he, too, hopes to bring that sort of leadership to the nation’s capital. However, there are currently so many … [Read more...] about Exclusive — Carl Paladino: Susan Rice Likely Behind Mar-a-Lago Raid
