The Philadelphia 76ers (20-20) play the Boston Celtics (34-11) for the second time in a week, facing them last week at the 02 Arena in London, losing 114-103.

Boston are the number one seed in the east and are looking to put further distance between themselves and the second place Raptors (30-13) while the 76ers are fighting to climb back into the playoff race, as they currently find themselves on the outside looking in.

The Celtics may be shorthanded tonight, as Kyrie Irving, Guerschon Yabusele and Marcus Smart are questionable for Thursday’s game.

The NBA All-Star game is officially one month away and will take place at the legendary Staples Center in Los Angeles California. After almost a month of voting the NBA has announced their All-Star starters for this year’s game.

It must be noted that the rules are slightly different this year, there is no longer an East vs. West concept. While twelve players each will be picked out the two conferences the players with the most votes in their respective conference will be the captain. The captains will then draft players from the pool of starters and reserves no matter their conference affiliation, this draft will unfortunately not be televised. Another excellent rule change is now players will be playing for a Los Angeles based charity or a national organization.

Although the format of the game has changed the rules for picking the 24 players are still the same. The starters are chosen by using 50% of the fan vote, 25%of the media vote and 25% of the players vote. You are allowed to pick two guards and three frontcourt players. Then the remaining seven players in each conference are chosen by the NBA head coaches who chose two guards, three frontcourt players, and two players of any position. The reserves will be announced Tuesday, January 23rd.

Without further ado here are your 2018 NBA All-Star starters!

The Indiana Hoosiers, currently 11-7, 4-2 conference, is versing the Spartans of Michigan State, currently 16-3, 4-2 conference. This game of basketball should be intense and worthwhile to watch. Both teams have a tied conference record. However, it is good to know that the Spartans are ultimately favored as the winner. According to ESPN’S Basketball Power Index, the Spartans are projected to win by a large margin, 94.1% while the Hoosiers are only favored at 5.9%.

While the Hoosiers won three games in a row, the Spartans have lost one. Both teams have their own fair share of arsenals: three-point slingers, excellent rebounders, and offensive powerhouses. One must watch out for Jaren Jackson Jr; he was named Big Ten Freshman of the Week for the Spartans. This is the third Freshman of the Week nod this season for Jackson, who also took the honor on Dec. 11 and Nov. 27. Jackson becomes one of 16 student-athletes to earn three or more Big Ten Freshman of the Week awards in a season. Through 19 games this season, Jackson is averaging 11.5 points, 6.2 rebounds and 3.3 blocks per game, while connecting on 49.6 percent of his shots from the floor and 43.4 percent of his 3-pointers. Jackson’s 3.3 blocks per game rank No. 6 nationally and his 62 blocks are the third-most in a single-season at Michigan State.

On the other end, for the Hoosiers, don’t sleep on them! The backcourt of the Hoosiers are dynamic, talented, and will be a perturbing presence in the paint. Since starting center De’Ron Davis suffered a season-ending Achilles injury in early January, the Indiana coach has turned up the pressure on his backcourt. Rebounding is merely one area where Miller is asking his guards to do more. Because of this vision, the Spartans will have to find ways to out-rebound the Hoosiers in every situation.

Fall Out Boy is an American rock band from Chicago, Illinois, made up of performers, Patrick Stump, Joe Trohman, Pete Wentz and Andy Hurley. Named after a joke from The Simpsons, they are also known for their hits “Sugar, We’re Goin Down” and “Thnks fr th Mmrs.” Also, the llama people. They are known for the llama people. A powerhouse since they started in 2001, they have recently come out with a new album.

Their new album, Mania, alternatively stylized as M A N I A and Mania: A Fall Out Boy LP, is the band’s seventh studio album, officially released on January 19, 2018, from Island Records and DCD2. The follow-up to their 2015 album, American Beauty/American Psycho.

The album was originally meant to be internationally released on September 15, 2017, but lead singer Patrick Stump revealed the album was delayed on Twitter. He gave the following statement:

“I’m never going to put a record out I genuinely don’t believe is at least as strong or valid as the one that came before it and in order to do that we need a little bit more time to properly and carefully record solid performances.”

By the following November, it was confirmed that the album was finished. In order to promote the album, singles were performed as part of the band’s Mania Tour, which had been named after the upcoming album, in October 2017, notably the single, “Wilson (Expensive Mistakes).”

Here’s hoping, with the release of the new album, we will finally get an explanation on where those llama people came from! I’m starting to get scared that I’m the only person who can see them.

Sigma Alpha Epsilon at Montana State University will be shutting down for the next three academic years until 2020. The chapter was previously placed on interim suspension in November.

According to the Bozeman Daily Chronicle, university officials reached an agreement with the fraternity’s national headquarters on Tuesday, January 16.

Matt Caires, the dean of student at Montana State University, says the decision follows years of “incidents that endangered student health and safety.”

via Bozeman Daily Chronicle:

SAE has agreed to close its chapter and the fraternity house at 810 S. Seventh Ave. The charter for the Montana Alpha chapter, as it is called, has been suspended and the undergraduate group disbanded. All current, initiated, undergraduate members have been suspended from the fraternity indefinitely and will not be allowed to reside in the Seventh Avenue house. The local house alumni corporation will continue managing the property, but it will never again operate as a fraternity house.

The agreement follows incidents over the span of several years at the fraternity house and various fraternity activities that endangered student health and safety, MSU Dean of Students Matt Caires said in a news release. The university and fraternity headquarters placed SAE on interim suspension in November.

Caires explained that the agreement means all current members of the SAE chapter are members no more and that the university no longer recognizes the SAE chapter as a student organization. During the three academic years, SAE cannot maintain or support any unofficial groups, either. At the end of that period, provided the agreement is upheld and all standard university requirements are met, MSU will reconsider allowing a future SAE chapter to become a recognized student group.

All current undergraduate members of the SAE fraternity have been suspended indefinitely and will not be allowed to reside in the house. The university will support the fraternity’s return to campus in 2020 if agreement terms are upheld.

This is the latest fraternity suspension in the last year, as schools such as Indiana University, the University of Michigan, Ohio State University, Texas State, Florida State, Ball State, Louisiana State and Penn State have all suspended fraternities.

Although there are a select few quarterbacks in the NFL that can take a relatively average receiving corps and transform it into a highly prolific offense, most passers in the pros are reliant on elite wide receivers that can make electric receptions consistently. While not every athletic pass-catcher can be an acrobatic phenom like Odell Beckham Jr., there are still a plethora of wideouts in this years draft class that have both the physical tools and exceptional route running abilities to make a splash in the NFL on day one of the regular season. Even though it may be difficult to discern who the top receivers are this year after the top three prospects at the position, rest assured there are several intriguing athletes that are lying in wait to make a name for themselves at both the combine and during their respective pro days.

10. Javon Wims, Georgia

Although the Georgia Bulldogs were largely known for their prolific and ruthless rushing attack, they actually possessed one of the most underrated and clutch athletes on their roster in Javon Wims. Not only does the sneaky fast Wims have the size to be a prominent playmaker at the next level, he also has the ideal work ethic intangibles to be a committed and fast learner. Although there are certainly more athletic wideouts in this years draft class, Wims has the hands and physicality needed to be successful in the NFL.

9. Dante Pettis, Washington

While Dante Pettis may fall off the radars of many draft pundits because of his size (6’1″, 185 lbs) and because of his propensity for dropping passes, this speedy, high-octane wideout actually has a lot more going for him then some realize. A deadly receiver after the catch, Pettis is extremely quick and has the ceiling to be an explosive playmaker at the next level. He’s not perfect and the dropped passes are a concern, but Pettis’ exceptional athletic abilities make him an intriguing wideout who could become a steal in the later rounds of the draft.

8. Keke Coutee, Texas Tech

Once again, we have another receiver on this list that lacks prototypical size (5’11” 180 lbs), but Keke Coutee more than makes up for it with his elevated production (1429 receiving yards, 10 touchdowns) and tremendous route running abilities. While Coutee projects to be a complimentary slot receiver because of his size, his separation skills and quickness could allow him to become a deadly deep threat pass catcher if he can build up a bit more strength.

7. Christian Kirk, Texas A&M

Gifted as both a pass-catcher and speedy returner on special teams, Christian Kirk is a slight yet girthy wide receiver that has proven to be one of the more versatile offensive playmakers in this years draft class. With 71 catches for 919 yards and touchdowns, Kirk was heavily relied on to carry Texas A&M offensively on multiple occasions, suggesting that the workhorse wideout could valiantly fight his way through both training camp and preseason to become a starting wideout on any NFL team.

6. James Washington, Oklahoma State

Averaging 20.9 yards per reception in college, James Washington is a consummate playmaker that will never shy away from making clutch receptions. Although Washington’s draft stock has dropped off somewhat because of his lack of explosiveness and production after the catch, his strong hands and vertical running abilities could allow him to become an exceptional 50-50 receiver, a skill that is highly coveted in the NFL.

5. Auden Tate, Florida State

Despite catching just 40 receptions in his final season with the Seminoles, Auden Tate was able to convert his limited opportunities into 548 receiving yards for 10 touchdowns. Better still, Tate is a massive and athletic wideout, allowing him to be a constant mismatch weapon against opposing defensive backs. Although some draft pundits believe Tate should have returned to Florida State to improve, he already has that elite size and big-play ability to be a mid-round steal in the draft.

4. Marcell Ateman, Oklahoma State

Although fellow wide receiver James Washington was more productive from a statistical standpoint, Marcell Ateman will most likely go ahead of his former teammate because of his intimidating frame (6’4″, 220 lbs). Averaging 19.4 yards per reception, Ateman has the deep playmaking ability and toughness to overcome some of the more elite defensive backs in the NFL.

3. Anthony Miller, Memphis

Just on production alone, Anthony Miller should be considered a highly intriguing and capable pass-catcher at the next level (1462 receiving yards, 18 touchdowns). A great route runner who is extremely elusive after the catch, Miller is a reliable pass catcher that can haul in practically any ball that is thrown within his area code. At 5’11” 190 lbs, Miller will probably be slighted by some NFL teams, but for any franchises that are willing to give the dynamic and gifted receiver a chance, they will not be disappointed.

2. Courtland Sutton, SMU

If a receiver is able to utilize his size to make big plays consistently, you can bet that they will eventually become a coveted wide receiver prospect. The only standout offensive weapon on SMU’s roster, Courtland Sutton was heavily relied upon to be the Mustangs go to playmaker as his length and overall frame allowed him to bully opposing defensive backs. Although some may be concerned that Sutton was never properly tested against reputable opponents, he has all the physical tools and instincts to be a top wideout in the NFL.

1. Calvin Ridley, Alabama

Despite being underweight for his position (188 lbs), Ridley has all of the necessary assets and then some to be a dangerous receiver in the NFL. His impressive quickness combined with his exceptional route-running abilities will allow Ridley to overcome his diminutive size to constantly baffle and frustrate defensive backs after the catch. Of course, it also helps that Ridley has tremendous hands, which should allow him to garner a tremendous amount of workload and production for any team that appreciates his top-notch abilities as an elite receiving weapon.

New England Patriots fans across the globe are currently freaking out about the status of Tom Brady, who reportedly injured his throwing hand this week during practice. The injury is apparently significant enough for bookmakers to adjust their odds and lines, as the AFC Championship game was temporarily removed from some sports books to be readjusted.

According to initial reports, Brady jammed his throwing hand at practice on Wednesday, January 17, after accidentally being run into, however, X-rays showed no structural damage.

Brady was at practice on Wednesday wearing gloves but he did not actually practice.

While Brady’s status remains vague, backup quarterback Brian Hoyer has begun fielding questions from the media if he is prepared to face the Jaguars defense.

Let me be the first to say, as a Jets and Giants fan (yes, it’s possible, because any reasonable New Yorker should never actively root against one of their own), that I am loving every second of this soap opera.

Is Wrong With Tom Brady’s Hand?

Brady jammed his throwing hand at practice after accidentally being run into but there is no word on structural damage. Despite this, Brady has been seen at practice wearing a glove on his throwing hand.

Susan Braudy, a writer, journalist and former Vice President of East Coast Production at Warner Brothers, has come out to accuse actor Michael Douglas, having worked for him during the height of his career in the 1980’s, of harassment, including exposing himself in front of her.

What is Braudy saying?

According to Today, in an exclusive television interview with NBC News’s Kate Snow, discussed the incident in which Douglas allegedly exposed himself to her:

“He slid down the floor, unbuckled his belt and put his hand inside his trousers and I could see what he was doing. Then he began to sort of began to fondle himself…And I was very scared.”

Allegedly, the incident took place in 1989 during a work meeting at Douglas’ residence. Braudy claims that she originally only shared the incident with close friends, who told her to remain quiet, adding:

“One of my friends said you better not tell people about him. People were frightened for me.”

What is Douglas saying?

Although Douglas denied making a comment with NBC News concerning their coverage of the story, he has made statements concerning the allegations beforehand.

In a statement with Deadline made earlier this month, Douglas gave the following statement:

“I can’t believe that someone would cause someone else pain like this…Maybe she is disgruntled her career didn’t go the way she hoped and she is holding this grudge.”

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Douglas gave the following statement in an off-the-record conversation:

“This individual is an industry veteran, a senior executive, a published novelist and an established member of the women’s movement — someone with a strong voice now, as well as when she worked at my company more than three decades ago. At no time then did she express or display even the slightest feeling of discomfort working in our environment, or with me personally. That is because at no time, and under no circumstance, did I behave inappropriately toward her.”

“Coarse language or overheard private conversations with my friends that may have troubled her are a far cry from harassment…Suggesting so does a true disservice to those who have actually endured sexual harassment and intimidation.”

Michael Douglas,73, known for popular films like Fatal Attraction, Romancing The Stone, War of the Roses and Wall Street. Everyone adores his work. He has made himself a Hollywood icon.

What Happened?

Douglas, a household name is accused of sexual harassment by journalist and novelist Susan Braudy.  Braudy began working for Douglas’ Stonebridge Productions in the late 1980s, where she told “Today,” “He thought he was the king of the world and that he could humiliate me without any repercussion.”

Most employees are told in a workplace that if they are treated unfairly, they should keep an account of it to include dates and times. Braudy did what most employees would do if they are being made to feel uncomfortable about something. Braudy has accounts and files of Douglas’ alleged use of inappropriate language and sexually charged behavior around her which she claims led to him masturbating in front of her.

Braudy provided documents to The Hollywood Reporter, supporting her allegations. She stated she was in a script meeting with Douglas when she noticed he slid down from his chair onto the floor.

“Michael unzipped his chinos and I registered something amiss,” Braudy wrote. “His voice lowered at least half an octave. I peered at him and saw he’d inserted both hands into his unzipped pants. I realized to my horror that he was rubbing his private parts. Within seconds his voice cracked and it appeared to me he’d had an orgasm.” Following the alleged incident, Braudy claimed, “I said nothing. I was surprised I wasn’t falling to pieces even though I was humiliated. I realized he thought he could do anything he wanted because he was so much more powerful than I was. Michael ran barefoot after me to the elevator, zipping his fly and buckling his belt. ‘Hey, thank you, you’re good. You helped me, thank you, thank you.’”

Braudy stated that her work relationship with Douglas went downhill quickly. “When he sweetly asked me to sign a confidentiality agreement, I knew Michael was preparing to fire me,” she wrote. “‘Don’t sign,’ my lawyer Leon Friedman said. ‘Keep saying your lawyer is out of town.’ So Michael waited six months for my lawyer ‘to return.’” She never signed the agreement.

Braudy said she told various people about the distress she claimed to have suffered by Douglas’ actions. Those people she confided in included journalist and “Fire and Fury” author Michael Wolff and author Lynn Povich, who confirmed her allegations. She did give a reason to why she hadn’t come forward publicly sooner, Braudy told “Today,” “One of my friends said, ‘You better not tell people about him.’ People were frightened for me.”

Who is Susan Braudy?

Susan Braudy began working for Douglas’ Stonebridge Productions in the late 1980s. She is an industry veteran, a senior executive, a published novelist and an established member of the women’s movement. She also  has a 1993 letter from the California Women’s Law Center showing she inquired about remedies for sexual harassment in the workplace (read it here), though she says she was too intimidated to follow through with a complaint.

Braudy’s job, which she performed first in a small office suite but then mostly out of the living room in Douglas’ Manhattan home, was to “read scripts, hire and supervise screenwriters, and perhaps most important, to babysit Michael in his apartment,” she writes in her account.

Douglas denied the allegations through his attorney in a statement to The Hollywood Reporter, calling Braudy’s masturbation claim “an unfortunate and complete fabrication … This individual [Braudy] is an industry veteran, a senior executive, a published novelist and an established member of the women’s movement — someone with a strong voice now, as well as when she worked at my company more than three decades ago. At no time then did she express or display even the slightest feeling of discomfort working in our environment, or with me personally. That is because at no time, and under no circumstance, did I behave inappropriately toward her.”

Aside from the plays on the field that propelled Alabama to one of the greatest comebacks in national championship history, the most memorable moment from the game happened off-the-field, when Crimson Tide linebacker Mekhi Brown went ballistic on the sidelines, seemingly going after one of the university’s coaches.

Not too long after that game (one week, to be exact) Brown announced on Twitter that he was transferring to … Tenessee State?

Yeah, sure, Mekhi Brown “transferred”. And Tupac is “dead”. And we “landed” on the moon. And JFK was killed by “Lee Harvey Oswald”. You pick up what I’m putting down?

“I wasn’t kicked off the team, I had my mind set on leaving early in the season. Coach Saban didn’t want me to leave and had no plans to kick me off the team,” Brown wrote on Twitter.

While “many people” are claiming that Brown had plans to transfer midseason, it’s hard to imagine a starting linebacker for a national championship winning team playing for the best coach in the country wants to go to a JUCO.

Before the start of the college football season, there were several intriguing quarterback prospects that were believed to be early first-round talents. While these same coveted athletes will still most likely be snatched up early by teams that are desperate to find a gifted young passer, all of these quarterbacks come with their fair share of deficiencies. Nevertheless, the serious need for reliable quarterbacks will be more than enough for floundering teams to look past the imperfections of these prospects to find a developmental passer that has tremendous upside. Although the disparity between the 10th ranked and the 1st ranked quarterback may be difficult to determine, there are some subtle differences between these passers that have allowed them to gain slight edges over their confident draft adversaries.

10. Trace McSorley, Penn State

Time and again, I have heard and read that Trace McSorley lacks the “NFL skill set” needed to succeed at the next level. While McSorley may not have the coveted size of a starting quarterback, his dual-threat abilities as a runner and passer is an ideal skill set that could easily be developed to allow him to compete in the pros. On top of that, McSorley has tremendous pocket recognition and is an underrated scrambler, suggesting that the disrespected quarterback prospect could become much more than he is currently getting credit for.

9. Kurt Benkert, Virginia

Although Kurt Benkert is one of the more unathletic quarterback prospects in this years draft class, he has the size, underrated mobility, and above-average arm strength to be an intriguing developmental project in the NFL. While Benkert needs to be more efficient at going through his progressions and his field vision needs improvement, his physical skill-set and deep ball accuracy could allow him to be a solid starter within a couple of years.

8. Mike White, Western Kentucky

If Mike White had the impressive arm strength that is currently coveted by NFL teams, he could feasibly be a top quarterback prospect in this year’s draft. However, White is consistently accurate, has great field vision, and is highly cerebral at the line of scrimmage when it comes to reading opposing defenses effectively. Although he will most likely go undrafted because of his unimpressive arm strength, his solid attributes in every other area that matters warrant at least some consideration by potential pro suitors.

7. Mason Rudolph, Oklahoma State

Although Mason Rudolph has the size and arm strength to be a great starting quarterback, his accuracy issues and limited field vision have him looking like an intriguing albeit developmental prospect. His pocket awareness needs improvement as well, a facet that should be a point of emphasis going forward if Rudolph hopes to avoid being constantly sacked by opposing defenses. While Rudolph is tremendously raw in many ways, his physical attributes are outstanding and could allow him to be a late bloomer on a team that is willing to be patient and develop the work in progress prospect.

6. Riley Ferguson, Memphis

Out of the lower-tier quarterback prospects, Riley Ferguson has the strongest chance to be a reliable starter at the next level. Although his field vision in the pocket is not great, this aspect improves immensely when he moves outside of the pocket. Seeing as how Ferguson threw for 38 touchdowns and nine interceptions in spite of his noticeable drawbacks, this under the radar prospect could quickly transform into an effective passer that can plays with his underrated mobility skills.

5. Luke Falk, Washington State

With a strong arm that is able to throw passes very accurately, Luke Falk has all of the physical abilities to be deadly and highly productive in the NFL. While he needs to be more disciplined and aware when making throws into coverage, he is the ideal pocket passer that will constantly give his best playmakers multiple opportunities to make big plays. If Falk can improve his mobility, he could constantly and effectively irk opposing secondaries that will be forced to cover their man tightly lest they give up a big touchdown play.

4. Josh Allen, Wyoming

Although Mel Kiper’s latest mock draft controversially had Josh Allen going first overall to the Cleveland Browns, I can see where the veteran draft prognosticator was coming from. Physically, Allen has the impressive size, athleticism, toughness and elite arm strength of a top-tier quarterback. However, Allen’s propensity for throwing ill-advised passes into obvious tight coverages are a cause for concern, although his lack of notable playmakers and a poor offensive line most likely inhibited him from performing at a high level. Without question, Allen is a high risk, high reward prospect that could become great given the proper time and coaching.

3. Josh Rosen, UCLA

With impressive throwing mechanics and exceptional pocket presence, Josh Rosen is arguably the most instinctually gifted quarterback going into the draft. However, Rosen’s injury history combined with his questionable intangibles could force prospective NFL teams to second guess themselves when it comes to taking him with a high pick. Although his decision making could improve, Rosen does have the natural abilities and intelligence to develop quickly into a starting NFL quarterback.

2. Baker Mayfield, Oklahoma

A prototypical gunslinging quarterback with fantastic leadership intangibles, Mayfield certainly looks and acts the part of a confident NFL passer. Although he does not possess elite arm strength, it’s competent enough to allow him to make the necessary throws in the pros. The most intriguing ability within Mayfield’s vast arsenal is being able to throw open wide receivers consistently, which is a highly difficult skill to perfect and utilize at the next level. Although his size and wonky footwork are a bit concerning, everything else about this fiery passer is ideal for a team that is looking for a dynamic passer and a natural leader that can galvanize his offense in tight game situations.

1. Sam Darnold, USC

Without question, Sam Darnold’s glaring issues this past season were throwing interceptions and fumbling the football at the worst possible moments. However, Darnold was able to overcome most of these blunders thanks to his anticipation skills and pinpoint accuracy when he was in a comfortable rhythm. If Darnold can improve his wavering confidence and decision making, he has all of the physical tools and abilities needed to be an elite starting quarterback in the NFL sooner rather than later.

Roger Federer, 36, is a Swiss professional tennis player who is currently ranked world No. 2 in men’s singles tennis by the Association of Tennis Professionals. His fortune is made up of both his tennis earnings and endorsement deals. He earns £27,600 in just over five hours, according to one calculation. He is married to Mirka Federer, former Women’s Tennis Association player, whom he met while the pair were competing in the 2000 Sydney Olympics. They have four children, comprised of two sets of twins.

He is also said to have earned over £47 million in 2017 alone, adding significantly to his fortune. Federer’s total net worth is said to be $420 million (£304 million).

1998-2008

Federer entered the top 100 ranking for the first time in 1999 and started at the 1999 Marseille Open defeating the reigning champion of the 1998 French Open, Spaniard Carlos Moyá.  Federer won the 2001 Hopman Cup representing Switzerland. Federer’s first singles victory was at the 2001 Milan Indoor tournament.

In 2001, the young Federer had international breakthrough in the Wimbledon Championships.

Federer made 10 singles finals between 1998 and 2002, of which he won four and lost six.

Federer won his first Master Series event at the 2002 Hamburg Masters on clay; the victory put him in the top 10 for the first time. In 2003, Federer won his first Grand Slam singles title at Wimbledon, beating popular Andy Roddick in the semifinals and Mark Philippoussis in the final. He had a chance to take over the #1 ranking for the first time from Andre Agassi if he made it to the Montreal final. However, he fell in the semifinals to Roddick, in a final set tiebreaker leaving him a paralyzing 120 points behind Agassi. This, coupled with early losses to David Nalbandian at Cincinnati and the US Open, denied Federer the chance to become #1 for the duration of the season.

Federer’s success in 2008 was outstanding despite by an illness called mononucleosis, which he suffered from during the first half of the year. At the end of the year, he would suffer a back injury that would prove to hinder him throughout his career.

In 2008, Federer captured one Grand Slam, a singles title at the US Open. At the Australian Open, Federer lost in the semifinals to eventual winner Djokovic, which ended his record of 10 consecutive finals. Later in the year, it was found Federer had been diagnosed with mononucleosis at the start of the year, particularly during the Australian Open. He lost twice in Masters Series 1000 finals on clay, at Monte Carlo and Hamburg. However, Federer captured three titles in 250-level events at Estoril, Halle, and Basel.

At the Olympic Games, Federer and Stan Wawrinka won the gold medal in doubles. However, Federer could only reach the quarterfinals in the singles draw. He ended the year as world #2.

2009-2018

The 2009 season was possibly the most historically relevant of Federer’s career as he completed a career Grand Slam by winning his first French Open title and won a men’s record fifteenth Grand Slam singles title at Wimbledon. The Wimbledon final was also historic for being the longest Grand Slam final in terms of games played with Federer prevailing 16–14 in the fifth set. Federer finished the season as the year end World No.1 for the fifth time in his career.

Federer finished 2010 strong, winning indoor titles at the Stockholm Open, Swiss Indoors, and the ATP World Tour Finals in London, which brought his tally to 66 career titles.

In 2011, he concluded the season with a 16 match winning streak.

In 2012, he won a silver medal in the Summer Olympics.

At the Davis Cup semifinals, Federer won both his singles matches in 2014. Despite an injury, Federer finished the season off excellently by clinching the Davis Cup for Switzerland for the first time in its history.

In 2018, Federer once again won the Hopman Cup.

Federer who is worth approximately $420 million (£304 million) will earn £2.32 million if he wins the Australian Open tournament this year, which will mean his 20th Grand Slam.

Mixed martial artist Francis Ngannou is one of the premier fighters in the heavyweight division for the UFC. The “Predator” is a force to be reckoned with in the octagon boasting the ability to annihilate opponents with vicious strikes on either hand. Ngannou’s 6’4 259lb frame is a mammoth and will prey on his opponents with his physical gifts. The Cameroon native has a record of 11-1 (7 KO’s, 4 submissions).

Francis Ngannou’s Net Worth as of 2018: $250,000

As it stands, Francis Ngannou made $90,000 his last fight. Considering he does well in his forthcoming bout against Stipe Miocic, The “Predator” salary should increase immensely once he is declared the new champion. With Ngannou ability, he has what it takes to be a serious threat to the throne. In his prime with a remarkable skill set puts other fighters on notice and can very well be a champion for the first time in his career.

Early Life

Francis Ngannou was born in the village of Batié, Cameroon. During his younger years, he lived in an area where poverty is at an all-time high and school was hardly acknowledged. At the age of 12, Ngannou worked a job doing sand quarry to keep afloat. An average person makes $1,300 a year in Batié. Instead of joining gangs in his village, Ngannou opted to follow his father’s footsteps as a fighter and pursue a career in boxing. After suffering from an illness not being able to fight, Francis worked different types of jobs just to keep the lights on until he was 26 years old where he emigrated to Paris, France. With no money, Ngannou overcame the odds and did what it took to pursue his lifelong dream. He is a huge Mike Tyson fan and wanted to emulate the moves he did. Instead of boxing, Fernand Lopez Owonyebe, trainer, steered him in the direction of MMA as a better fit. Proved to be the right decision as Ngannou is dominating his adversaries.

2015-present

The Predator started his MMA career in France and fought in other locations in Europe. Ngannou then signed on with the UFC on December 19, 2015. In his first 10 matches, he was an unbeatable warrior. Demolishing fighters with his knockout ability and his submission technique. Pound for pound a fearless striker. Ngannou proved his worth with a win against Alistair Overeem on December 2, 2017, in the first round with a knockout. That was the biggest fight of his career. Now he’ll have a chance to one-up that performance and compete for the Heavyweight title. If the defending champion Miocic gets hit on a two-punch combo form Ngannou we’ll almost certainly have a new champion on our hands.

Michael Douglas is an American actor and producer whose career has spanned over four decades and includes an impressive range of both independent and blockbuster films. Recently, Douglas has become somewhat of a controversial figure as sexual misconduct stories from his past have surfaced.

Michael Douglas Net Worth As Of 2018: $300 Million

He is perhaps most known for his role as the amoral villain, Gordon Gekko, in Wall Street (1987), for which he won an Academy Award for Best Actor. He also reprised the role in the sequel Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps (2010). As both an actor and producer, Douglas has won two Oscars, one Emmy, and five Golden Globes.

1968-1976

In 1968, Michael Douglas received his B.A. in drama from the University of California, Santa Barbara. Following his graduation, he moved to New York City and studied acting at The American Place Theatre. Michael Douglas started his film career in the late 1960s and early 1970s. His first significant role was on the TV series The Streets of San Francisco, in which he starred as Inspector Steve Keller from 1972 to 1976. In 1975, Douglas received the rights to One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest and went on to produce the film of the same name. The film won five Academy Awards and skyrocketed Douglas into a showbiz success.

1977-1987

His acting career also took off when he produced and starred in the 1984 romantic adventure comedy Romancing the Stone. The film also starred Danny DeVito, a friend of Douglas since they had shared an apartment in the 1960s. 1987 proved to be a memorable year for Douglas. He starred in two box office hits, Fatal Attraction and Wall Street. The latter of which he won an Academy Award as Best Actor.

1988-2001

Over the next ten or so years Michael Douglas continued his hot streak by appearing in films like Ridley Scott’s Black Rain (1989), Basic Instinct (1992), Disclosure (1994), David Fincher’s The Game (1997), and the Steven Soderbergh classic Traffic (2001), in which Douglas met his future wife, Catherine Zeta-Jones. A lot of Douglas’s films during this time explored topics of sexuality and other sensitive topics. In particular, Disclosure covered subject matter around sexual harassment. In the film, Douglas plays a man harassed by his new female boss, Demi Moore.

2002-Present

The turn of the century has brought Douglas some more film success, and most recently, some controversy as well. In 2003, he starred in It Runs in the Family, which featured three generations of his family. Douglas joined Steven Soderbergh again in the 2013 film Behind the Candelabra, playing Liberace, opposite Matt Damon. His portrayal of Liberace was well-received and won him a Golden Globe and Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Miniseries or Movie. He reprised his role as Gordon Gekko in Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps (2010). He also joined in on the Marvel Comic craze, playing Hank Pym in Ant-Man (2015).

Recent events have shed some disappointing light on Douglas’s otherwise clean past. Author and journalist Susan Braudy, a former employee of Douglas, has accused him of sexual harassment during her time spent working for him in the late 1980s. The story of this misconduct originally surfaced during that time, but Braudy claims Douglas was quick to sweep it under the rug. She says it’s taken decades and a powerful movement for her to have the courage to bring this story to light once again.

This Friday, the NBA late game of the night is underwhelming to say the least. That is because both teams in this contest are extremely unlikely to make the playoffs this season. These teams are the Utah Jazz and the New York Knicks. The Jazz entered the season with the hopes of returning to the playoffs after making it to the second round last season before getting swept by the Warriors. However, the Jazz have struggled this season and are currently tenth in the Western Conference. Their opponents for this contest, the New York Knicks, have not fared much better. The Knicks are also out of the playoff picture at this point of the season and are tenth in the Eastern Conference standings. However, these teams are relatively even which should make this game extremely competitive.

The Utah Jazz’s struggles are primarily due to injuries and a lack of offensive production. Last season, the Jazz were led by star forward Gordon Hayward who averaged 21.9 points and 5.4 rebounds per game. However, Hayward was a free agent after the season and decided to take his talents to Boston instead. As a small market team, Utah was unable to fill the void and was forced to rely on star center Rudy Gobert to carry the team back to the playoffs this season. However, Gobert has missed more than half of the team’s games this season due to injuries. When he is on the court, Gobert is a force on the boards and on the defensive end. This season, Gobert is averaging 11.6 points and 9.6 rebounds per game along with 2.3 blocks. According to Utah’s coach Quinn Snyder, Gobert will return tonight. However, he will have a minute restriction. If Utah plans on winning this contest, Gobert will need to dominate in the paint in the limited minutes that he plays.

New York’s struggles are primarily due to its lack of depth. Entering the season, the Knicks were expected by many to potentially sneak into the playoffs due to the talent of star forward Kristaps Porzingis. This season, Porzingis has been phenomenal and looks like a superstar in the making. Specifically, Porzingis is averaging over 23 points and six rebounds per game along with 2.4 blocks. However, the team’s bench has been unable to generate enough offense when Porzingis is not on the court. Statistically, the Knicks rank 17th in the league in bench points per game which has led to several losses when the team’s starters have gotten into foul trouble. If the Knicks plan on winning this game, Porzingis will have to stay out of foul trouble.

As for my prediction, I have to side with the Jazz. Although the Jazz are currently 18-26, the team is surprisingly 13-8 at home. The Jazz have one of the best home courts in the NBA and I expect it to be rocking on Friday night. Meanwhile, the Knicks are 5-16 on the road this season and now have to travel to a very hostile environment for this game. I expect Gobert to provide valuable minutes in his first game back from injury as he leads the Jazz to a victory.

When you first enter a college campus, it can be easy to figure out which areas belong to the Greeks, with the luxurious houses belonging to the campus “brothers” and “sisters.” Stereotype or not, a new study from House Method seems to suggest that the idea that fraternities and sororities live in luxury is certainly based in truth. Looking at over 1,300 fraternity and sorority properties, the study found that these properties also boast pretty impressive real estate.

What is the average Greek property like?

As the study found, around 10% of male students and slightly over 12% of female students participated in Greek organizations in 2015.

Greek properties are certainly expensive, worth more than a million dollars on average. Generally speaking, fraternity properties tend to be larger than sorority properties, although they tend to be less expensive on average; the fraternity properties leaned towards a $1.05 million average property value, while the sorority properties had around $1.22 million. That said, on average, fraternity properties have an average property size of around 29,589 square feet, while sorority properties have an average property size of 26,247 square feet.

Like a fine wine, the wealth and age of Greek properties came hand in hand, with the average house being 67 to 70 years old. On average, fraternity properties were generally as old as 1947 and sorority properties were as old as 1950.

That said, specific organizations and locations were also a factor. Among fraternities, Chi Phi was the most expensive organization, worth around $1.64 million on average. Among sororities, Alpha Gamma Delta was the most expensive organization, worth around $1.74 million on average. A full list of property values, divided by greek organizations and universities, can be read below. Take a look!

Bianca Blanco is an actress known for her roles in films such as In Dubious Battle, American Romance and Teen Star Academy. In 2018, Blanco made headlines after she wore red to the 2018 Golden Globes despite the fact that most of the attendees were wearing black in support of the #TimesUp movement.

Blanco, 36, told Fox News after the 75th Annual Golden Globe Awards ceremony that she didn’t mind skipping the suggested dress code. Easy to see why, as she looked downright gorgeous in her red dress.

via Fox News:

“I love red,” she explained. “Wearing red does not mean I am against the movement. I applaud and stand by the courageous actresses that continue to break the cycle of abuse through their actions and fashion style choices. It is one of many factors leading women to a safer place because of their status. I am excited about the #TimesUp movement; true change is long overdue.”

However, the California-born talent is aware her latest style choice may garner criticism among women who may feel she should be taking a public stand against sexual abuse in Hollywood.

“It hurts my feelings, but I guess it’s part of being in our industry,” said Blanco. “We have people who appreciate you and others that don’t. The designer Atria Couture did an amazing job with my dress and I appreciate them for dressing me.”

Making a sound point, Blanco stated further that “shaming is part of the problem.”

The black outfits worn by the celebrities, both male and female, coincided with the launch of the Time’s Up, a legal defense fund for both women and men who believe they’ve been discriminated against or harassed in the workplace.

So far, more than 300 members of the entertainment business have signed a “letter of solidarity”.

Republican lawmakers around the country are assembling online to demand the release of a new memo, being referred to as the “FISA Memo”, that apparently contains revelations about U.S. government surveillance abuses. All over Twitter lawmakers have been tweeting #ReleaseTheMemo to stir up support online of the “shocking” and “revelatory” being released to the American public.

On Thursday, January 18th, 2018; the House Intelligence Committee voted to make the memo available to read for all members of the lower chambers. Now in the time since the vote, lawmakers have been voicing their opinions online for the four-page memo to be released to the public. Details on the memo have not been released yet, but many people are saying that the memo’s contents will be “explosive” with Florida Republican senator Matt Gaetz saying on Fox News, “the facts contained in this memo are jaw-dropping and demand full transparency. There is no higher priority than the release of this information to preserve our democracy.”

While the memo hasn’t been seen by anyone outside of the House Intelligence Committee, many are speculating that the memo contains evidence of abuses from the Department of Justice and FBI when they forced the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act against Donald Trump’s Presidential campaign during President Obama’s administration. Many Republican politicians like Scott Perry of Pennsylvania said, “You think about, ‘is this happening in America or is this the KGB?’ That’s how alarming it is,” when asked about the memo’s details on Fox News.

The memo has been a hot topic all over the internet and news with the secrecy over the memo’s contents fueling the fire. Many news publications are claiming that most of the commotion happening online is thanks to a group of Russian hackers trying to stir up drama in America.  The Washington Examiner reported that the file is available to read for anyone who is a member of the House but it must be read in a contained room and must never leave that room. Now, Wikileaks has set up a fund for anyone with access to the memo to release it to the notorious site for a reward of $1 million.

Will The FISA Memo Get Released?

While we aren’t too sure when exactly the memo will be (or if) it will be released to the American public, but Fox News reported on January 18th saying, “the process for releasing it to the public involves a committee vote, a source said. If approved, it could be released as long as there are no objections from the White House within five days.”

With that being said, it looks like the memo could be released to the masses by January 23rd, 2018. If the weekend is not being counted into the “five days” for the release it could be released January 25th, 2018. It is important to note that the White House can object and deny the memo to be released so there have been no promises made yet.

Republican politician Mark Meadows was quoted saying, “Part of me wishes that I didn’t read it, because I don’t want to believe that those kinds of things could be happening in this country that I call home and love so much.” It seems that only the Republican party are the only ones making demands for this memo to be released in order to strengthen the Trump administration but Democrats are saying it is not true. Top Democrat in the House Committee, Adam Schiff, was quoted saying that the memo is, “Rife with factual inaccuracies and referencing highly classified materials that most of Republican Intelligence Committee members were forced to acknowledge they had never read, this is meant only to give Republican House members a distorted view of the FBI.”

We will continue to watch this story as it develops and will report back IF the memo is revealed to the United States public.
