The president loved the idea. A Reaganite in his economic as well as his foreign-policy views, Bush has nurtured the supply-side notion of eliminating overtaxation since his Texas governorship. He had pounced on dividends the previous August when Wall Street discount-broker king Charles Schwab proposed it at his Waco economic summit. Corporate dividends are taxed once when companies hand them out and again when investors file tax returns. Ending this was basic “fairness,” as one official termed it, and Bush promptly pitched his $674 billion package to the nation that way....

In the Champions League quarter-final at the Parc des Princes, Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) were without star striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who was serving a suspension for a sending off he received against Chelsea in the previous leg. Energetic midfielder Marco Verratti was also out of the match due to a ban. PSG had the post to thank early in the game when Lionel Messi’s shot hit the woodwork. The Argentine, then, found Neymar through on goal and the Brazilian made no mistake as he took a touch before placing the ball below the goalkeeper, Salvatore Sirigu, and into the net to give the Spanish side an advantage in the 18th minute....

Ground War, the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 large-scale team-based mode, supports two teams of 32 players vying for control of objectives with vehicles added to the usual multiplayer gameplay. Player-controlled vehicles are not a staple of the Call of Duty franchise, but the increased size and scale of Ground War matches means vehicles take on more importance. Modern Warfare 2 has its share of bugs and glitches, but a tank landing on a helicopter is just a case of physics working as intended....

The Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP), which makes vaccine-related recommendations to the Centers for Disease and Prevention (CDC), held an emergency meeting on Tuesday to discuss and vote on how the first available doses of a future COVID-19 vaccine should be distributed. Thirteen voting members of the committee voted in favor of approving the recommendation proposing initial doses of a COVID-19 vaccine be offered to health care personnel and long-term care facility residents first, while one voting member voted against it....

As opposed to the much more focused scope of the first season, season 2 of Andor will feature several time skips as it portrays the final 4 years of Cassian Andor’s (Luna) life leading up to his appearance and eventual death in 2016’s Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. As much as Disney probably would have loved more seasons to spread out that tale, that wouldn’t have worked out in the long run, at least according to Luna and Gilroy....

The inaugural Russian Grand Prix scheduled to be held in Sochi next year has been in the news quite frequently, but for the wrong reasons. However, Hermann Tilke, whose company designs new F1 circuits including the one in Sochi, is confident that the construction of the track will be completed on time. Insisting that he is ’100 per cent certain’ about the timely construction of the track, Tilke said “The track will be built on schedule....

But now you know that there are no bad people, only people who think badly of themselves. You know that “if you really joyfully accept yourself… nothing can make you unhappy,” in the words of Father John Powell, a specialist in “psychotheology” at Loyola University of Chicago. You know that even famous, successful people like writer Gloria Steinem (“Revolution From Within: A Book of Self-Esteem”) have to battle “inner feelings of incompleteness, emptiness, self-doubt and self-hatred....

Wendell Carter Jr. was one of those players. Coming to Chicago with the seventh pick of the 2018 draft, Carter was supposed to be a well-rounded big man who could shoot from 3, pass a little bit and defend intelligently. He looked like he could fill that modern big-man prototype that every team needs. There were some flashes with the Bulls, but the consistency was never there. Carter was traded to Orlando 2 1/2 years later....

The Switch, in general, tends to be a “hit-maker,” and Metroid Dread appears to be drawing up more interest than ever....

The Hague - Earlier this week, Guus Hiddink declared he was enjoying “in principle” his last season as a football coach, but Thursday he downplayed that statement again. ” ‘In principle’ says it all,” the 66?year?old coach of Russian club Anzhi Makhachkala said, reports Xinhua. “I have so much fun and energy. If I’m still wanted, it may be different again.” Hiddink started as coach of Anzhi this year. After 17 match rounds this season the club is second in the Russian Premier League....

Such warnings are hardly new in our post-9-11 world. In the last 21 months, the government has investigated more than 3,000 terrorist threats in the United States, issued 103 warnings to law enforcement agencies and announced three major nationwide terrorist alerts before this one. But this time, intelligence officials say they have intercepted more specific detail about potential attacks and have more reason to believe one is “imminent.” Should the government be doing more to protect us?...

Keeping all those factors aside, looking at the history of the tournament, there have been several foreign individuals whom the Indian crowds have embraced as their own during the IPL. The likes of David Warner, AB de Villiers, Lasith Malinga and Chris Gayle are examples. It has also been a proper platform for some fringe players for other international sides as well. Chris Morris, Shaun Marsh and Chris Lynn had their international debut after IPL....
