They would have to go through the Milwaukee Bucks, Brooklyn Nets, Philadelphia 76ers and Boston Celtics. All the teams mentioned above have a better roster on paper. The Hawks will have to outperform expectations to overcome any of them in a seven-game series. Meanwhile, it is worth noting that the Hawks have pulled off the spectacular in recent years....

NEWSWEEK: What is your impression of Ehud Barak? ABU ALAA: Well, no doubt he’s a very intelligent man. He has the mentality of a good soldier who doesn’t put all his cards on the table. He listens carefully and he understands what you are saying. How soon can talks begin on a permanent-status peace agreement? We can start immediately, if Mr. Barak says that [Jewish] settlements [on the West Bank] are frozen and if he implements the Wye River peace agreement....

I pitched the idea of building a tiny house to my partner Christian and although we had only been dating for a year at this point, he was all in. It took about nine months to build our tiny house in 2014, we purchased plans and ordered a tiny house trailer, and then customized the plans to meet our needs. For example, we added a second loft bedroom for when my son was staying with us....

Chasing 176 on Tuesday, CSK rode on a brilliant 96-run knock from their veteran batsman Shane Watson to once again move to the top of the points table. Watson, who took 53 balls and hit nine fours and six sixes, however missed out on a fifth IPL hundred as Bhuvneshwar Kumar (1/18) got his wicket. Earlier, Manish Pandey remained unbeaten on 83 with the help of seven fours and three sixes but could not lead his team to an imposing total as Sunrisers managed only 51 runs in the last six overs after Warner’s dismissal as Sunrisers managed 175/3 in their stipulated quota of 20 overs....

Goals from former Sunderland pair Moussa Sow and Jermaine Lens condemned the visitors to a 2-1 defeat against Fenerbahce in Istanbul, with Wayne Rooney’s late goal little more than a consolation. United slump to latest defeat And the Portuguese trainer admitted his team did not deserve anything out of Thursday’s game. “They deserved to win. Football is not just about quality, it’s about effort, commitment, playing the limits, giving everything....

Up until our first detection in 2015 all of us gravitational wave researchers were considered as nice enough, but probably a bit crazy to go after this apparently impossible task. The physics world has changed a lot in the last five years, and in 2019 we made an incredible discovery. A simple way to understand our work with gravitational waves is this: with gravity, if you accelerate a mass it will produce gravitational waves....

The Californian city of Compton was often subjected to shooting and gun violence back in the day....

The Red Devils lost 4-0 to the Bees at the Gtech Community Stadium in their second Premier League match of the new season. Goals from Josh Dasilva, Mathias Jensen, Ben Mee, and Bryan Mbuemo sealed a fantastic victory for the hosts inside 35 minutes. While Manchester United lacked cohesion throughout the 90 minutes, the individual mistakes cost them against Brentford. David de Gea was at fault for the first two goals, while Lisandro Martinez could have arguably done better to prevent the third....

The fliers, which explained how to resolve minor traffic tickets online, were supposed to provide the web address for Miami-DadeClerk.com, the URL for the county’s court system. Instead, one of the two URLs printed on the fliers excluded the web address’ hyphen and told people to visit MiamiDadeClerk.com, a website selling pro-Trump merchandise. “We’re aware of this typographical error now,” Miami Beach Police Department spokesperson Ernesto Rodriguez told the Miami Herald....

I actually trained as a chartered accountant, but in 2000 I decided I needed to do something of more value to the community and so, after working for Barnardos and the New Zealand government, in 2018 I became the 12th Wellington City Missioner and the first Missioner who is not an ordained Anglican priest. Wellington City Mission was founded in 1904 as part of the Church of England to respond to the needs of the community....

Dominic Solanke and Tammy Abraham also made substitute appearances, while Brazil’s front three consisted of Neymar, Philippe Coutinho and Gabriel Jesus. Despite the strength of the Brazil forward line, however, England were able to hold on for a clean sheet. “We tried everything,” Neymar told reporters after the game....

Corey and I have two sons; Alex who is 23 and Jack,19, but when Alex was 2 years old, he became fascinated by Christmas lights. We ended up hanging them in his room and playroom all year long. We didn’t have a lot of money back then, so our family would send us gift cards for Christmas and we would use them to buy clearance Christmas decorations for him because he loved it so much....

Having replaced Alan Pardew just before Christmas, Allardyce has struggled to turn around Palace’s struggling fortunes - his only win from seven matches in charge coming at home to former club Bolton Wanderers in an FA Cup third-round replay. Allardyce: Palace not to blame Allardyce’s sole signing of the January transfer window thus far has been the capture of Jeffrey Schlupp from Leicester City, reportedly for a fee of £12....

The protagonist of Watch Dogs, Aiden Pearce, spends his time in the hyper-connected and incredibly violent underground world of tecno-crime in Chicago. The upcoming pseudo-sequel novel, Watch Dogs //n/Dark Clouds, takes place in the same location as the game. The book also takes place right around the same time as Pearce’s adventures, but it sounds like it will likely focus primarily on other characters in the city and how they interact with technology....

Paul’s 67 and I’m 39, but we work together well—I’m very outgoing and he’s kind of laid back. We got married a month after same-sex marriage was legalized in Tennessee in 2015. I’ve always liked kids, but I liked other people’s kids more than I wanted my own. And Paul was married before we met—he has three wonderful kids, and we have six grandkids. They call me GranChad. Two or three years into our relationship, we talked about adoption, but at the time it wasn’t the right fit....

While the 22-year-old admitted he was disappointed with the overall result, the striker refused to concede defeat in the tie....

Belgrade was in party mode on Monday as substitute Prijovic’s 74th-minute goal sealed victory for the hosts, ensuring they made it back to the biggest stage in international football after missing out in 2010. Serbia 100/1 to win 2018 World Cup Manchester United star Matic had earlier seen his volley cleared off the line before Prijovic calmed any remaining nerves, with Ireland’s win in Wales meaning a draw would ultimately have been enough for Slavoljub Muslin’s men....

City led 5-3 after the first leg but trailed inside 10 minutes when Kylian Mbappe stabbed home from close range, with Fabinho levelling the scores on aggregate before the interval. Leroy Sane struck from a tight angle after 71 minutes to nudge City back in front but a Tiemoue Bakayoko header from Thomas Lemar’s set-piece completed the scoring and sent the hosts through on away goals.
