But are publishers being smart? Many bloggers just repackage what they’ve already done. That can work, à la Robert Lanham’s 2003 “The Hipster Handbook,” which has sold 40,000 copies. But usually “the reading experience for a book needs to go deeper,” says Brettne Bloom of the Kneerim & Williams agency. The media bloggers at Gawker, whose readership has topped a million a month, certainly learned that lesson after signing a rumored $250,000 deal with Atria last year....
The tradition of “an eye for an eye” is so ancient and dangerously ingrained among the desert Arabs that 1,400 years ago the Qur’an called on good Muslims to forgo vengeance in order to expiate their sins. But the old codes of honor remained, and in the most troubled parts of Iraq today, increasingly, they prevail. When governments cannot or will not protect the people, then families, clans, tribes, gangs and militias will....

The team is set to install AstroTurf in February, but Blue Jays officials are hoping it’s for the last time. Rogers Centre will be undergoing huge renovations, which will include natural grass and a dirt infield that will accommodate drainage, ventilation and irrigation, the National Post reported.

Jokes aside, the Toronto Blue Jays are taking a massive, progressive step forward in rectifying Minor League Baseball’s rampant minor-league pay issue, raising the salaries of their minor league players by 50 percent, according to a report from Emily C. Waldon and Ken Rosenthal of the Athletic. The report notes that Toronto began theorizing the changes for about a year before finally putting them into action, per Toronto vice president of baseball operations Ben Cherington....

In New York, tensions were more evident when Black Lives Matter protesters attended a Brooklyn “Back the Blue” demonstration early on Saturday....

The 24-year-old, who has been in top form for the Reds this season, opened his account by the 20th minute from the spot, moments after teammate Aleksandar Pesic opened the scoring.

Costas was asked if NFL players were disrespecting the military and first responders by kneeling during the national anthem. He delivered a powerful response, saying sports, patriotism and the flag have become so conflated that other gestures are excluded or criticized as unpatriotic. MORE: Tom Brady disagrees with Donald Trumps comments “This is no disrespect to the military,” said Costas. “Martin Luther King was a patriot. Susan B. Anthony was a patriot....
In an interview published in USA Today on Thursday, the same day as his 98th birthday, Dole called Biden, his once longtime colleague in the Senate, a “great, kind, upstanding, decent person.” Dole is a lifelong Republican who was the party’s candidate for president in an unsuccessful run against then President Bill Clinton in 1996. He was also Gerald Ford’s running mate on the GOP ticket that lost to Democrats Jimmy Carter and Walter Mondale in 1976....
It was as a fan, not a beginning journalist, that I hoped that I’d be able to at least catch glimpses of the already legendary player in the lobby. To my surprise, things turned out very differently. Bobby and his wife Pat, who always was armed with a smile and never wore an ounce of pretension, quickly struck up a real friendship. To my Polish-born wife Christina, still relatively new to the U....

Line: Dayton -4, Total: 127 (current NCAA Tournament point spreads and totals) Boise State Record: 25-8 ATS: 19-11 OVER/UNDER: 11-10 Overview: Boise State is better known for football and its odd-colored home field, but the Broncos’ basketball squad makes a case to be paid attention to as well. They finished the season on a 15-2 SU run, losing to Wyoming in the Mountain West semifinals.

The blast in Ludhiana, an industrial town in Punjab state, was the second apparent terror attack this week in northern India. Two people were killed days earlier in the bombing of a venerated Muslim shrine in the neighboring state of Rajasthan. A third person injured in the attack died Sunday. Sunday’s attack occurred on one of the holiest days of the Muslim calendar, Eid al-Fitr, which marks the end of the holy month of Ramadan, and came weeks before two major Hindu festivals, Dussehra and Diwali....
But like a trailer for an action movie, if you’ve heard the single (maybe, like, 20 times already on VH1) then you’ve heard the best moments of “Music.” Of the scant nine songs that follow, the majority feel self-consciously stiff, and not in an ironic, let’s-make-fun-of-the-early-’80s way. In “Impressive Instant,” Madonna’s voice is computer-manipulated, morphing from robotic cold to chipmunk cute, while a stark, thumping beat and minimal “futuristic” effects make it a brittle, uninviting experiment....

MORE: Ranking Saban’s Tide teams | Next for Saban? | Photos Bernstein was instantly criticized for the tweet because it was a silly thing to say, but she also received responses accusing her of racism. Russell Wilson had no problem with Ciara’s attire. The Seahawks quarterback dates the pop superstar, so it would have been a little awkward at home if he told her she needed to throw a jacket over her dress....
The military man-turned-author received criticism after appearing on the conservative podcast Information Operation last week. During that appearance, the then-commander of the 11th Space Warning Squadron at Buckley Air Force Base in Colorado told podcast host L. Todd Wood that “diversity, inclusion and equity industry and the trainings we are receiving in the military…is rooted in critical race theory, which is rooted in Marxism.” The description continues, “Are the many Diversity and Inclusion trainings that are being conducted in our federal agencies helping solve these problems, or are they creating conflict where none previously existed?...
