If you find that you’re in shock and can’t cry, that’s also okay—everyone grieves in different ways. Writing in a journal during a time of sadness can also help you fully express yourself. Your friends and family members won’t need you to act “tough” or put on a “brave face”—instead, they’ll want to know when they should intervene and help you. Let your loved ones know when you’d benefit from a private moment to talk because you’d feel more comfortable in that situation....

Despite having captured their long-elusive 33rd Malaysia Cup title in 2015, Selangor continued their decline in 2016, finishing fifth in the Super League and ending up finalists in the Malaysia Cup. Off the pitch issues came to a head, when an internal dispute between two factions; one headed by Selangor FA (FAS) president and Selangor state Menteri Besar Azmin Ali and the other headed by FAS deputy president Subahan Kamal, resulted in the resignation of the former, and with it the cessation of state funding....

Black chauvinism–the yoking of economic and political self-determination with separatist notions of racial solidarity has long misled blacks. It periodically reappears, especially at times when the white majority seems uninterested in racial progress. Richard Allen and Absalom Jones in the 1780s and Martin Delaney and Bishop Henry Turner in the second half of the 19th century urged blacks to leave the United States for Africa, the West Indies or Canada....

Currently held every two years in the United States — with an occasional co-host — the reigning champions are Mexico, who beat Jamaica in the 2015 final. The latest U.S. Soccer transfer rumors El Tri have won three of the past four tournaments, with only the USA breaking up their recent dominance and Canada the only nation aside from that big two to have ever won the trophy. Costa Rica will hope to change that this year, while Honduras and Panama can also be considered outside shots to go all the way....

Well, one dog on TikTok has shown an aptitude for just that, in a video which shows him diving for rocks in a lake and a river. In footage posted to the app on August 13 by an account called theschnoutsquad, we can see proof of the golden retriever’s talent. The video begins with a close up of the cute dog’s face, accompanied by a soundbite from the 2001 film Legally Blonde in which protagonist Elle Woods, played by Reese Witherspoon, asks her boyfriend: “So you’re breaking up with me because I’m too blonde?...

In the video, which can be seen here, the voice over describes how he has deployed his “special anchor” over his mom’s “audacity to think we would go on a ‘street walk’ and not visit the park.” The video, which has been viewed over 325,000 times, is one of many of the goofy pup on the TikTok page Elton The Golden Retriever, which has over 24 million likes.

The video, shared on TikTok on Sunday by the dog’s owner, under the username Happythedappy, shows the dog walking over to his owner’s bed, chewing a toy, and making a moaning noise intended at waking up his human. The video, which since being published on the platform has been viewed over 345,700 times and liked about 66,900 times, comes with a caption that reads: “Personal alarm clock.” According to the American Kennel Club, (AKC), golden retrievers are used for everything from hunting and tracking to rescue and service dog work....

On Thursday, the San Francisco Chronicle spoke to the Golden State Warriors Organization who revealed that they are becoming increasingly concerned about the status of Wiggins, who announced in March that he wouldn’t receive the COVID-19 vaccine. “The Warriors recently connected Wiggins with an Oakland doctor who understands issues surrounding vaccine hesitancy, sources said,” said Rusty Simmons of the Chronicle. “The doctor explained the suffering and deaths she has witnessed in patients who contracted the coronavirus, sources said, but Wiggins remains unmoved in his decision against vaccination....

Harrington is competing in the Grand Slam of Golf Title in Bermuda after a season in which he had one top-five finish. Harrington, a three-time major winner, is looking to take a period out of the game in order to regain his sharpness. "I've just played probably too many events and I feel it's time for a break," he said after shooting a first-round 74 in Bermuda. "It's just pure staleness in the game....

Ronan Flood, Harrington's brother-in-law, fell ill on the sixth hole of the second round. He was rushed to the clubhouse at Durban Country Club, where he was treated by a doctor. Flood carried Harrington's bag when the Irishman won the 2007 and 2008 British Opens and the 2008 U.S. PGA Championship. Harrington sought help from Irish-born photographer Pat Cashman as a stand-in caddie before organizers arranged for a replacement.

Gonadatropin releasing hormone is a naturally occurring hormone in the body. It is released by the hypothalamus and it controls the release of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH) from the pituitary gland. These hormones FSH and LH then stimulate the production of estrogen and progesterone in the ovaries. It is this relationship known as the hypothalamic pituitary ovarian axis that controls your menstrual cycle. In order for this axis to function properly and result in ovulation, GnRH has to be released in a pulsatile fashion....

Males tend to experience more noticeable symptoms, but they usually do not seek care early enough to prevent spreading the infection.

Still, Flacco played like he could smell the postseason coming on the first Sunday of December. He went for 258 yards on 27 of 34 passing and three touchdowns … in the first half, that is, when the Ravens put the game away in some unusual ways: early, riding on the offense’s shoulders and without having to count on Justin Tucker’s foot. If the Ravens can do that the rest of the way, they will be the proverbial team that nobody wants to face in the playoffs....

HE SEEMS MOST LIKE OUR Contemporary when he was most remote from us - back in the early days, a kid just out of high school, with his first band and a little indie-label record, driving all night to nickel-and-dime gigs with the bass lashed to the roof of the car. The young Elvis Presley wouldn’t look out of place today in Seattle, or L.A., or Austin, Texas, with his cheap, flashy clothes and his ambivalent come-on: sullen sexiness meets hunted vulnerability....

And the good news keeps coming—if you look for it. We will probably be seeing more spectacular Christmas decorations this year as virus-stranded Americans use their extra time to do up their homes. Expect lots of 6-foot snowmen and flotillas of glowing flamingos. Suffice it to say, President Donald Trump’s prediction that if Biden were elected, “the market will crash” proved to be the opposite of correct. On the contrary, the markets seemed relieved at the lowered threat of Trumpian disruption slowing distribution of a coronavirus vaccine and risking national security....
