The doodle is a diorama of the four men, later known as the A&T Four or Greensboro Four, sitting at a Woolworth lunch counter to order a cup of coffee. The doodle’s artist, Karen Collins of the African American Miniature Museum, said she wanted her diorama to provide hope and teach a younger generation about their history. “Creating art honoring the Greensboro sit-in (and the Civil Rights Movement it was part of) is my way of giving back to today’s generation, especially to those who are in desperate times and troubles—to lift them up and teach them about their history,” Collins told Google....

A twirling skater with arms outstretched spins slowly; as she brings her arms in, her rotations accelerate until she is no more than a blur on blades. This principle is the oldest truism known to sports science: angular momentum – the product of a spinning object’s mass, radius squared an spin rate – remains constant. This formula means that if a skater like Michelle Kwan (photo) reduces her radius by bringing in her arms and legs, her spin rate increases....

The Shootout event is a little different than most poker tournaments as players must “win their table” in order to advance to the next round of competition; in other words, it’s a series of single-table tournaments where a coveted WSOP gold bracelet awaits the eventual winner. Woods’ journey to the final table started on Thursday as he defeated two-time WSOP bracelet winner Athanasios Polychronopoulos heads-up to make it through to Friday, where an epic heads-up match versus one of poker’s most feared players, Doug Polk, would stand between Woods and a final table berth … Woods would finally put an end to the match and the rest was history....

They’ve proven themselves to be legitimate Stanley Cup contenders. Marc-Andre Fleury was his usual brilliant self with 28 saves in his fourth shutout of the postseason and Vegas benefited from a couple of fortunate bounces to advance to the Western Conference Final with a 3-0 victory over the San Jose Sharks on Sunday. “It’s a bit crazy thinking about it for sure,” defenseman Brayden McNabb said. “But we’re here to win....

Burch, Ph.D., director of the American Kennel Club’s (AKC) family dog program and a certified animal behaviorist, told Newsweek that golden retrievers “are known to be good with children....

Rahm, 22, triumphed at Portstewart despite having an unreliable driver and if he is equally as unpredictable off the tee at Royal Birkdale, Jacklin said he will find it tough to stay out of the long rough and the fiendish fairway bunkers. “I love watching guys like Jon,” the 1969 British Open and 1970 U.S. Open champion told Reuters in an interview. “He’s a great putter but he won’t be able to hit it off the tee and perform like he did last week....

Just two days before the 2017 Malaysian football season kicks off with the Sultan Haji Ahmad Shah Cup match between Johor Darul Ta’zim (JDT) and Kedah, JDT shockingly announced that they have parted ways with head coach Mario Gomez.

He said he was notified of the university’s decision to suspend his tickets after a “congenial,” but “not pleasant,” conversation with first-year Gonzaga athletic director Chris Standiford....

Strange but true: Clinton has become a foreign-policy president. The man who was once dismissed by some as a bungler is now convinced that foreign policy will, at the very least, not hurt his chances in November’s election. Though the Middle East remains a thicket which can scratch the reputation of any president, Clinton’s team can point to a set of foreign-policy successes, like last week’s important trip to Korea, Japan and Russia....

Having downplayed expectations in advance, astronomers were delighted and amazed at the show Shoemaker-Levy put on. The fragments did smack into Jupiter’s far side, as predicted, but the rapidly rotating planet quickly spun the resulting fireballs into view. The pyrotechnics were so bright that even little telescopes dug out of dusty attics for the occasion caught a glimpse of them. Amateur sky watchers could even spy the prominent black scars the impacts left above Jupiter’s clouds – fried gobs of particles left over after a fragment got incinerated....

It has been a long time since the life sim received a major game update from its developers. There was a minor patch for Animal Crossing: New Horizons recently, but the title has not released new content since the launch of its free 2.0 update and paid DLC, Happy Home Paradise.
