Releasing the info on Twitter, the official HBO account teased just a tiny bit of what to expect in a new post. Barry Berkman/Barry Block (Bill Hader) looks suitably grizzled and miserable in the lone picture shared with the post, offering a less than optimistic teaser for what’s to come for the Cleveland hitman who just wants to act. Given the potentially catastrophic cliffhanger that greeted viewers at the end of season 2, it’s hard to imagine anything less for poor Barry....

While HBO Now will soon be available to viewers as a standalone channel without any cable subscription, Netflix has topped them in terms of revenue generation so far.

It may not have been glamorous, but it was glasnost. While Western media have detailed Gorbachev’s life–school days in Privolnoye, his whirlwind courtship of the headstrong Raisa–such personal details have traditionally been off limits to the Soviet press. Even Komsomolskaya Pravda could not interview Mrs. Gorbacheva directly; she was protected by a ring of KGB guards. But if the Soviet media continue to report so aggressively, the Kremlin leader may actually have to go see his mom....

The Eagles are one of five unbeaten NFL teams through three weeks, and the hype around rookie quarterback Carson Wentz continues to grow. The Ravens are also 3-0, even with an “old man” receiver; the Jets were simply “s—-y” on Sunday; defensive linemen aren’t used to running the length of the field; and the Browns aren’t already planning to pick No. 1 overall in next year’s NFL Draft. MORE: Best images from Week 3...

England international Rashford has flourished under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s stewardship, scoring six goals in his past 10 appearances in all competitions. The 21-year-old was rewarded with the Premier League Player of the Month prize for January and is reportedly in talks over a long-term contract extension. Herrera, a regular starter since Solskjaer’s appointment as interim manager, has enjoyed a close-hand view of Rashford’s development in recent seasons and believes the forward is bound for greatness....

Now imagine waking up one day to find that fancy office building smells just as nauseating as the horse stable, only now you have been handed a mop and soap and face the daunting assignment of helping clean up both places.

Up until this new announcement, Harry Potter: Magic Awakened was previously believed to be one of the potential titles for the leaked Harry Potter RPG alongside Magic Forever. Footage for the leaked RPG first surfaced online in October 2018, showing off an open-world RPG set over a century before the events of the Harry Potter series.

Subsequently, criticism has flown in from all quarters and former Premier League midfielder and former Tottenham Hotspur manager Harry Redknapp thinks he knows why Manchester United’s board did not back Jose Mourinho’s transfer plans. He said, Redknapp may have gone a bit extreme with his analysis but you can’t put anything past the club at this point. He also goes on to point out how the next game against Tottenham Hotspur could prove to be a real test for Jose Mourinho and his red army....

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex dipped their toes into the debate around the COP26 summit by releasing a statement on their website on Tuesday, vowing to work towards being carbon neutral. However, Harry’s father Prince Charles and his grandmother Queen Elizabeth II have so far been the stars of the global climate change conference, which has been described as humanity’s last chance to tackle global warming. It was a rare moment when Harry and Meghan were outshone by their elders....

Maxwell, who is at the top spot in the list of Orange Cap holders with 533 runs in this IPL, has changed the fortunes for his team Punjab, who has managed to reach the semi-finalist stage only once in the history of IPL. Maxwell, who has been referred to as the ’new Gayle’, struggled to hold a firm place in the national team after being publicly criticized for his careless stroke play and repetitive failures by coach Darren Lehmann earlier this year....

Bob Scalise, Harvard’s athletics director, announced Brand’s dismissal on Tuesday afternoon and said it came after an independent investigation found him to have violated the conflict of interest policy. Brand allegedly sold his home to Jie Zhao for well above the market value. Zhao’s son was admitted to Harvard shortly after the sale and joined the fencing team, as did his brother who graduated in 2018. Allegations against Brand came to light after news of the FBI investigation dubbed “Operation Varsity Blues” broke....

Harvick won each of the first two stages at Dover International Speedway on Sunday, and then ran away with the third for his 41st career triumph. He passed Kyle Busch for the most wins this year after holding off team-mate Clint Bowyer. Bowyer led for much of the third stage and was in the lead before a rain delay with 82 laps to go, but this year’s winner at Martinsville got loose on a turn with 63 left and was passed by Harvick who coasted his way to victory....

As rebel groups assailed Mogadishu, the capital and last bastion of government control, Siad Barre played a bizarre game of hide-and-seek. Was he holed up in his bunker near the airport, or some other secret refuge? Nope, say Western diplomats who visited him last week: he was safely tucked away in his presidential palace, where he commanded the rebels to lay down their arms. They refused. So did his own troops when ordered back to their barracks....

She was placed under medical supervision at Balmoral — the royal family’s estate in Aberdeenshire, Scotland — on September 8 after doctors expressed concern for her health. Her death was announced later that day. The news prompted the enaction of Operation London Bridge (known through the code phrase ‘London Bridge Is Down’): a pre-determined plan for the procedures immediately after the Queen’s passing. A period of national mourning is expected to be announced as matters such as the funeral and the ascension to the throne of Charles, the Queen’s eldest son, are arranged....

Greene, a close ally of former President Donald Trump and member of the ultraconservative Freedom Caucus, has strongly criticized her colleagues for their opposition to McCarthy. On Wednesday, she said she was “furious” with other members of the Freedom Caucus and said that three of them “were demanding positions for themselves” while she had made no demands despite currently having no committee assignments. “You would think I would be the one in there asking for something, but I haven’t done that....
