In its heyday, it was a landmark that gave its 150,000-odd population its bearings, ushering them to other parts of the town such as City Hall, Pasadena Town Square Mall and the library. But it had been abandoned since 2002, and no longer a beacon of civic pride had fallen into disrepair, a target only for urban explorers and drone pilots. Inspired by the ethos of renowned U.S. architect Frank Lloyd Wright, the building was constructed in 1962 by a company owned by Frederick James MacKie and Karl Kamrath....

One thing that has not changed in Season 4 is the calibre of guest stars the series has managed to bring in. Among those making guest appearances are Seth Rogen, Maria Bamford and the British tones of John Oliver. Who are the new cast members in Big Mouth Season 4? Ayo Edebiri - Missy Foreman-Greenwald Jenny Slate will no longer voice Missy, with comedy writer and actor Ayo Edebiri taking the role—though slate will still voice the character for all but the last two episodes....

And when the Ph.D. Yale student was seen bringing his victory total up to a jaw-dropping 31 on Wednesday night’s episode, it was not lost on fans that he’s just one game away from equaling the second-place record held by James Holzhauer. Holzhauer achieved his 32-game feat in 2019, earning himself an eye-watering $2,462,216 in winnings as he etched his name in the show’s record books. And while Amodio, whose cash prize currently stands at $1,158,001 has certainly earned himself some bragging rights, he took to Twitter late Wednesday to humbly rank his abilities far behind those of The Chase star Holzhauer....

The committee ranked one-loss Notre Dame No. 5 in its first release, just a spot shy of the four-team playoff field. The Irish close with Pitt, Wake Forest, Boston College and Stanford. Pitt could have cracked the top 25 with a home win against UNC last week, but fell 26-19. Line: Notre Dame -8, Total: 54 Line movement: The Wynn opened at ND -8, moved to -8.5, then back down to the opener....

The 24-year-old has sustained a severe sprain and is set to undergo further checks in the coming days. The news is a major blow to the full-back, who had hoped to make his comeback in the derby clash with Inter on April 4, having last featured in August. “AC Milan inform that during today’s training session, Andrea Conti has suffered a sprained knee injury, the same knee he underwent surgery on September 16,” a Milan statement confirmed on Tuesday....

The top immunologist, who has been the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases since the 1980s and is now a member of the White House coronavirus task force, made the comments on Politico’s Pulse Check podcast recorded Wednesday and published Thursday. Host Dan Diamond asked Fauci if there are even scarier viruses, ones that would be more dangerous, still lurking. The COVID-19 coronavirus is thought to have jumped from a bat to humans, likely via an intermediary host....

The statement then goes further, directly addressing fans of Faze Clan. The statement reads, “The trust and respect of our fans has been, and always will be, our number one priority.” In other words, Faze Clan is distancing itself from the situation as much it’s able. No connection has been made between Faze Clan itself and the ongoing cryptocurrency controversy, but the organization is clearly going out of its way to ensure no such association is made....

A stand-off lasting more than eight hours at a Wells Fargo branch in St. Cloud ended on Thursday evening after a fifth and final hostage ran free from inside the bank. Shortly afterwards at around 10:30 p.m., the suspect—identified by the Sun Cloud Times as Ray Reco McNeary—was taken into custody after FBI agents entered the bank. Four other hostages either ran from the building or were freed by McNeary between 6:30 p....

The lie-detector test comes just as investigators prepare to bore and possibly excavate the Studey’s five acres and parts of an adjacent 425-plus acres belonging to neighbors. It was unclear what prompted the FBI to call Studey on Wednesday about the polygraph, which will be done at its Lakeland, Florida, office. But it may give authorities confirmation of Studey’s story: That over three decades dating back to at least the 1970s, her father, Donald Dean Studey, would offer shelter to what he called “bar slushes’’ and transients or prostitutes he found in the nearby Omaha area, bringing them back to the family’s trailer in Green Hollow, where he killed them....

FC Augsburg finished in a disappointing fifteenth place in the Bundesliga last season and will want to put in an improved performance in this campaign. The home side managed an uplifting 3-1 victory against Union Berlin in its opening fixture but will have its back against the wall in this game. Borussia Dortmund picked up an emphatic 3-0 victory against Borussia Monchengladbach and got their campaign off to a winning start....

Certain sections of the footballing society hoped for a massive upset, just so that they could revel in Barca’s misery. But, under Pep Guardiola, Barca have won 13 out of a possible 16 trophies. Two out of the three that they haven’t managed to put in their cabinet are the Copa del Rey‘s of 2009-10 and 2010-11. The third is probably the only one that is of actual significance – the 2009-10 UEFA Champions League trophy, in which they were bundled out in the semi-final by the Internazionale team headed by current Real Madrid manager Jose Mourinho....

The strain has driven up concerns about the accuracy of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) tests, also called molecular tests, the current gold-standard in COVID-19 testing. That’s because PCR tests look at the virus’s genetic material, and the variant is causing that genetic material to look slightly different. Stephen Russell, MD, PhD, CEO, and co-founder of Imanis Life Sciences explained to Verywell that PCR tests work by detecting different parts of the virus....

Just to put this into perspective, the man has 954 appearances under his belt, entering the 25th year of his professional career, for one of the most celebrated clubs in world football. Not a bad record to have, is it? Ryan Giggs might have given thought to hanging his boots up, but admits that he could continue if he remains in David Moyes’s plans. If he does continue, he could eclipse a mind-boggling 1000 appearances for the club, which would be another record in his kitty....

With Raikkonen taking pole ahead of Vettel, Ferrari’s prospects of ending their wait for a first Monaco triumph since Michael Schumacher’s success in 2001 always looked extremely good. By contrast Hamilton, having cut the gap to Vettel to six with victory in Barcelona last time out, saw his chances of a big points haul on the tight streets of Monte Carlo severely limited by having to line up 13th on the grid....

Ferrari driver Vettel, who leads by one point going into the 10th of 21 races this season, was 0.187 seconds quicker than Hamilton and 0.357 ahead of Bottas. The Mercedes duo managed a one-two in first practice as they aim to bounce back after failing to finish the Austrian GP due to team errors last Sunday. “It’s going to be very, very close this weekend. The Ferraris are really fast,” Hamilton said....
