Lilia Kilburn is one of three women who have accused John Comaroff, a professor of African and African American studies and of anthropology, of harassment, NBC News reported. Originally, she said she felt harassed after an incident in which she told Comaroff she wanted to travel to central Africa, to which he told her she would be raped and killed due to her sexuality. The lawsuit, filed Tuesday, alleged much more than Kilburn’s accusations regarding Comaroff’s comments on sexual violence in central Africa....

“Michael was so singular in his competitive drive, and a drive that extended to his partners, like Nike, that he could not bare the thought of wearing the Reebok logo on a global stage: Receiving a gold medal at the Olympics,” former NBA Inside Stuff host Willow Bay said on the documentary series. “So he covered the Reebok logo with the United States flag.” MORE: Inside the 1992 Dream Team with Michael Jordan...

Joey Logano will be a factor in 2015. 2. Jimmie Johnson is back after a disappointing 2014. 3. Kevin Harvick … he’s not going anywhere. But how about the other top-13 drivers?

Although they had faded somewhat in recent decades, the arrival of Jurgen Klopp in 2015 revitalised the club. The German manager took Liverpool to back-to-back Champions League finals, and has seen them compete with Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City, with the teams pushing each other close in domestic competitions. Winning the League Cup (Carabao Cup) had been a routine for Guardiola, having lifted the trophy in every season from 2017-18 to 2020-21....

Keita Balde had a season to remember with Lazio in Serie A last season, where his fine displays were crucial as the Biancocelesti scored 74 goals - the fourth highest in the division - to finish fifth to qualify for the Europa League. Balde played his own part, scoring 16 goals and contributing six assists in 34 games in all competitions, and expectedly ended his long and troubled association with Lazio by making the switch to Monaco....

Scheffler birdied four of his last six holes on Friday to move to 8-under par ahead of the weekend. It continued a streak of red-hot play for Scheffler, both in recent rounds and in recent weeks. Heading into the Masters, Scheffler had won three of his last five events. That came after he failed to notch a victory during his first three-plus years on the PGA Tour. Now, the No....

The African nation will be up against a joint bid from USA, Canada and Mexico as they look to win the hosting rights for the very first time after having attempted on four earlier occasions – 1994, 1998, 2006 and 2010. Interestingly, back in 1994, they lost the hosting rights to USA, who would get a chance to host for the second time. Morocco has hosted the FIFA Club World Cup on two occasions and FIFA president Gianni Infantino has claimed that the African country is “capable, in terms of infrastructure and organization, of hosting a World Cup....

Senegal are the only side to have won in nine attempts by African teams in knockout phase games against European nations, overcoming Sweden at this stage in 2002 – and the Lions of Teranga have reasons to be confident after beating Qatar and Ecuador to finish a point behind the Netherlands in Group A. Their next opponents produced a vastly-improved second-half performance to thrash Wales 3-0 shortly after the Africa Cup of Nations holders progressed, with all the goals coming inside 19 minutes and Marcus Rashford taking his group stage tally to three, as his side remained unbeaten and won Group B by two points....

Horford, who missed most of 2011-12 with a torn left pectoral muscle, was injured in the first overtime Friday night in a victory at Cleveland and likely will need surgery soon. Budenholzer started 15th-year veteran Elton Brand at center Saturday night against Charlotte. Pero Antic and Gustavo Ayon also will get plenty of playing time. When Horford was hurt two seasons ago, he was sidelined 55 games after undergoing surgery....

Hazard tops last season’s goal total Chelsea’s upturn in form since Moses has featured is no coincidence. Since the Nigerian has taken up the right wing back berth in Conte’s new-found 3-4-3 formation, the Blues have won four from four, beating Hull, Leicester, Manchester United and Southampton, without conceding a goal. During the Blues’ trip to St Mary’s, Gary Neville made a throwaway comment suggesting keeping clean sheets is down to mentality....

The Blues were crowned Premier League champions in 2016-17, with domestic dominance secured with the minimum of fuss. A forgettable defence of that crown has been staged by Antonio Conte’s side, with inconsistency blighting the 2017-18 campaign for the reigning champions. They are now in danger of finishing outside the top four – with a 10-point gap to be bridged in just six games – but Hazard believes Chelsea have shown in the past that an absence from elite European competition can actually play into their hands....

To test the dog’s word recognition, the researchers spread familiar toys in a room and sent him in to fetch them by name. After establishing that he could do that, they tossed a new toy into the mix and used a novel word to request it. Instead of blanking, Rico usually picked out the unfamiliar toy–later remembering it by its assigned moniker. Such “fast mapping” is common in human toddlers, but scientists had never seen it in another species until now....

To see the rich and funny ““Good Will Hunting’’ is to know, inside of just two or three scenes, why Damon has become Hollywood’s undisputed Young Man of the Moment. Will Hunting (Damon) is an abused orphan kid from South Boston with a long rap sheet of assaults and robberies. As it happens, he’s also a self-taught genius. But Will has so much rage, self-loathing and class resentment that he refuses to do anything with his gift–he just works as a janitor at MIT, and hangs around with his townie friends looking for fights....
