Yet for the second time this week, UConn coach Geno Auriemma went on the defensive when asked about the symbiotic relationship between the success of this dynasty and the health of women’s basketball. Why is UConn still successful?

But with six minutes to go France wrapped things up in superb style, Amandine Henry scoring from outside the penalty area to send a strong message to their World Cup rivals....

Warner Bros. is, by all accounts, fully on fire from a business perspective. The studio is canceling finished projects and massive blockbusters for tax purposes, but James Gunn’s new position at the helm might save the day. However, it seems clear that there will be some casualties in his heroic attempt to right the ship. RELATED: Does Warner Bros. Even Want To Keep Its DC Properties?

RELATED: Star Wars Deepfake Puts A Young Harrison Ford In Solo While nothing else about the scene is changed, the face replacement alone is enough to draw attention. Seeing Trejo wordlessly deflect bullets and mortar shells is more than worth the effort put in, and based on how technically complicated Deepfakes tend to be, there was likely a good amount of effort behind this video. It perhaps wasn’t quite as involved as the Star Wars Deepfake that tried to outdo The Mandalorian, but it’s still impressive in its own right....

But just as Woods was picking up momentum, another rumble brought him to a halt. It came an ominously dark cloud that settled over the PGA Championship, bringing thunder and heavy rain that washed out the rest of the second round. It left Woods pondering his third shot into the par-5 eighth hole the rest of the night — not to mention his place on the leaderboard. When play resumes at 7 a....

He appeared to mumble something to himself, but that was about it. No fiery outburst. No course language. No complaints about someone talking too loud, or being on the phone, or snapping a picture. Shoulders slumping, Woods looked as though he had accepted his fate. There won’t be a 15th major championship. Not at this British Open. Woods needed a birdie at the final hole — his only one of the day — just to make the cut....

Mammoths mostly died out around 10,000 years ago. As sea levels rose, the remaining population got stranded on Wrangel Island and eventually disappeared 4,000 years ago. Well-preserved samples of these extinct giants have since been found in the Arctic permafrost, allowing researchers to get a glimpse of their DNA sequence. With these samples, scientists at the Harvard Medical School (HMS) in Boston, Massachusetts, are working on plans to combine that DNA with samples taken from Asian Elephants—the mammoth’s closest living relatives—to bring these genes back from the dead....

Having blown a chance to clinch a place in the knockout round by allowing Portugal to earn a draw late in their game Sunday, the U.S. also missed a chance to play a rather meaningless game Thursday against Germany without Altidore.
