NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- Investment firm Waddell & Reed responded Friday to a media report that it placed a large sell order for certain stock futures that regulators believe may have contributed to last week's brief-but-historic stock market crash.
In what has come to be known as the flash crash, the Dow Jones industrial average plunged 1,000 points -- the biggest intra-day trading drop ever -- on May 6, briefly erasing $1 trillion in market value, before regaining much of the lost ground.
While the ultimate cause of the collapse remains unknown, regulators have focused their investigation on a sharp drop in the value of a stock future called the E-mini S&P 500, which investors use to bet on the future performance of stocks in the broad stock index.
Waddell, an asset management and financial planning company based in Overland Park, Kan., sold a large order of E-mini futures contracts during a 20-minute span that corresponded with the plunge, according to a document obtained by Reuters.
In a statement, Waddell said it was one of possibly 250 other investors trading the E-mini futures contract on the day in question.
"On May 6, as on many trading days, Waddell & Reed executed several trading strategies, including index futures contracts, as part of the normal operation of our flexible portfolio funds," the firm said in a statement.
Waddell added that such trades are used to protect investors from potential losses, adding that the firm is a "'bona fide hedger' and not someone intending to disrupt the markets."
"This is a longstanding and well-monitored practice in certain of our investment portfolios," said Waddell.
Waddell (WAD) shares fell 5% to $32.38 Friday.
Gary Gensler, chairman of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, said in congressional testimony Tuesday that regulators were focusing on one particular trader in the market for E-mini futures as part of the commission's investigation into the flash crash.
Gensler said the trader in question entered the market at around 2:32 p.m. ET on May 6 and finished trading by around 2:51 p.m. ET. He said this trader and others had executed hedging strategies of similar size previously.

Rumors sprung up that there were Tamina Snuka nude pictures floating around the internet, but that appears to just be a hoax, as the WWE diva and single mother has been especially careful to not anything like that happen. It turns out that the allegations were spread because an adult website is using her name to draw in search engine traffic.

Eva Marie and a couple of the developmental wrestlers went out to take pictures and sign autographs.
February 28, 2014

There's something strikingly simple in the response of Ekteena, an 11-year-old Muslim-Australian girl, to meeting a Jewish-Australian peer.
"We both prefer dogs over cats, we both like school and we prefer winter than summer because we get to cuddle under a lot of blankets," she tells RN's Life Matters.
"A lot of things [are] the same."
She mightn't know it, but she's perfectly articulated a point that two national museums — one Islamic, one Jewish — wanted to make.
The museums, both located in Melbourne, have created Museums Together, a program to demonstrate to the wider world that there's more in our history that unites us than divides us.
Through the program, Jewish students from the King David School and Muslim students from Sirius College get to know each other, study the other's religion and culture, and train as guides at their respective museums.
Cayleigh Abel, education project officer at the Jewish Museum of Australia, says students have both "a synagogue experience" and "a mosque experience".
And she believes it's essential learning.
"Definitely more than ever there is a need to teach students at a really young age how to engage with someone that's different; how to talk to someone that's different; how to open up," she says.
"It's all about actually teaching kids how to engage, how to ask open questions, how to active-listen."
Sherene Hassan, education director at the Islamic Museum of Australia, agrees that cross-cultural lessons are particularly pertinent today.
"We are in a climate of fear and misunderstanding, and the only way to counter that is by getting to know the other ... to build friendships," she says.
"That's so much more important than learning about a religion from a textbook."
'We are similar, but we are also different'
In Museums Together, students learn about the Hebrew and Arabic languages, including how the alphabets work, how to write their name and how to play board games designed to teach aspects of both religions' histories.
"We are getting to be with other schools and learn about other cultures, so we don't just make assumptions of them," says young King David student Hannah.
Ms Hassan says it's in the historical context that even more common points arise.
She says there are teachings in Islamic culture that can also be found in "Judaism, Christianity, Hinduism, Sikhism — even humanism; even people who don't believe in God".
"Often, we hear about Aussie values or Australian values as if Australians are the only people that subscribe to these values, but in reality, these are universal values. These are human values," she says.
She offers, by way of example, the Islamic teaching, "speak good words or remain silent" — a saying from the Prophet Muhammad.
"We also find that in Australia — if you haven't got anything nice to say, don't say anything at all," she says.
Ms Hassan explains that the idea of Jews and Muslims as friends isn't a new concept.
"The Ottoman Empire actually sent ships to Spain to rescue Jews fleeing the Spanish Inquisition," she says.
"And more recently during the Holocaust, the Albanian Muslims were renowned for taking in Jews fleeing the Holocaust."
She says stories like those "epitomise the teachings of Islam".
"What we see groups around the world doing, like Al Qaeda or ISIS — this is antithetical to Islamic teachings; the opposite of what Islam stands for," she says.
She hopes the chance to highlight Islamic history to those who mightn't be aware of it will assist them to "see Islam through a different lens".
"So, they'll understand that Islam is not this strange religion that we are often made to believe, but they will see the similarities between their own teachings and the teachings of Islam," she says.
"That's a really important key message that we want to establish — our similarities."
Ms Abel says those similarities are "definitely something we wanted to push".
But she says differences are just as important.
"It is a really mature concept to understand that we are similar, but we are also different and it's OK to be different, and your perspective is just as valid and truthful as mine is," she says.
"So it's awesome that we have those similarities but we are also encouraging the students to accept that we also have differences and that's totally fine."
'We're all human'
Ekteena says she has high hopes for the program, which continues further into the year.
"By the end of this I hope people get together and don't assume and they trust others," she says.
"I'd love for [the Jewish students] to learn about the Islamic culture, and I'd love to learn about theirs too."
Like Ekteena, one of her Jewish counterparts, Year 6 student Gabriel has some succinct learnings to share already.
"We're all human and we're all the same ... if only the rest of the world [understood], that would be much better," he says.

WASHINGTON–U.S. Senators Mitt Romney and Mike Lee (R-UT) reintroduced the Protect Utah’s Rural Economy (PURE) Act, legislation that would protect Utah from presidential Antiquities Act abuse in much the same way Alaska and Wyoming are currently protected.
“Roughly two-thirds of Utah is owned by the federal government, putting our state at a disadvantage when it comes to decisions on management of our public lands,” Senator Romney said. “National monuments in particular have become a political football that gets tossed back and forth as presidential administrations change. Given the recent executive order to review Bears Ears and Grand Staircase-Escalante, it’s even more important that we work together to end the political back and forth. The legislative process is the best way to achieve this, and I will continue seeking opportunities to work with our federal, state and local elected leaders to come to a permanent solution.”
“Rural Americans want what all Americans want: a dignified decent-paying job, a family to love and support, and a healthy community whose future is determined by local residents – not their self-styled betters thousands of miles away,” Senator Lee said. “That is why I am introducing the Protecting Utah’s Rural Economy Act today, a bill that would protect Utah from future abuses under the Antiquities Act by prohibiting the president from establishing or expanding a national monument in Utah unless the proposed monument has been authorized by an act of Congress and the state legislature.”
Passed in 1906, the Antiquities Act was originally intended to protect objects of historic and cultural interest like artifacts and religious sites. Unfortunately, what was once a narrowly targeted tool for preventing looting on federal lands has become a weapon urban elites use against hard working rural Americans. Two states, Alaska and Wyoming, both received protections from future Antiquities Act designations after millions of acres were restricted in those states. The PURE Act would give Utah’s rural communities a real voice in local land management policies, a voice they currently do not have today.

This warning of increased earthquake risk in the Oklahoma City region should be big news.
USGS points to substantial data that the number of earthquakes in the Oklahoma City region has increased substantially, skyrocketing to 40 per year from 2009 to mid-2013. That is startling higher than the 1 to 3 earthquakes per year experienced from 1970 to 2008.
USGS further reports that some of the earthquakes can be felt at the surface, do damage, and register 4 or 5 on the Richter scale. This is a serious matter and should again be big news.
What is the cause of the skyrocketing number of earthquakes? Almost certainly deep underground disposal of liquids that are mainly wastewater from oil and gas operations.
The USGS warning is remarkable! But to my knowledge it has not led to any regulatory response from either Oklahoma's regulators or the EPA.
To put in bluntly, it would be regulatory malpractice to ignore the USGS warning and the data that form its basis. But that may be exactly what is happening.

Portobello quiche with thyme gravy
(For 4 persons)
- 190 g vegetable margarine
- 315 g wheat flour
- ½ tsp salt
- 60 ml cold water
- 1 medium onion
- 15 g fresh thyme
- 200 g finely chopped leek
- ½ vegetable stock tablet
- 150 ml hot water
- 6 portobellos
- 2 tbsp mild olive oil
- 25g panko
- 100 ml vegan smooth red wine
- Cut 130 g plant margarine into cubes. Place 270 g flour with the salt in a bowl. Rub the margarine cubes into the flour with your fingertips until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs. Add the cold water and form the dough into a ball. Wrap in cling film and place in the refrigerator for 30 minutes. Allow to sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes before rolling out.
- In the meantime, preheat the oven to 200°C. Chop the onion. Strip the leaves from the thyme sprigs. Heat 15 g margarine in a frying pan and fry the onion and leek for 7-8 minutes over medium heat, until the onion is translucent and the leek softens. Season with salt and pepper and scoop the vegetable mixture out of the pan.
- Heat 25g of the butter alternative in the pan over medium heat. Stir in 25 g flour and fry for 2 minutes, stirring, until the flour is brown and smells nice. Dissolve half the stock cube in the hot water. While whisking with a whisk, pour the stock into the pan in parts until a thick sauce is formed. Add the thyme leaves and stir well. Season with pepper and stir in the onion-leek mixture.
- Cut the stems from the portobellos. Heat the oil in a frying pan over medium heat and fry the whole portobello mushrooms in batches for 2 minutes per side. Remove them from the pan and let cool, but do not rinse the pan.
- Lightly dust the work surface with the rest of the flour. Halve the dough and roll out each piece into a rectangle about 3 mm thick. Line the cake tin with one of the slices. Seal any holes with the remaining dough. Trim away excess dough. Poke holes in the bottom, place a piece of baking paper on the bottom and divide the baking beans over it. Bake the pie blind for 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and remove the baking beans with the baking paper. The dough will shrink a little, but that's okay.
- Sprinkle the panko on the bottom of the cake tin. Place 3 portobello mushrooms next to each other on the bottom. Divide the onion-leek mixture over it. Repeat with a layer of portobello mushrooms. Cover with the second slice of dough. Make a small indentation in the center of the dough and brush the top with water. Bake the pie in the center of the oven for about 40 minutes, until golden yellow and crispy. Let rest for 15 minutes. Cut the pie into slices.
- In the meantime, add the rest of the butter alternative and the wine to the frying pan in which you fried the portobello mushrooms. Stir the browned bits and bring to the boil. Let it simmer for 5 minutes. Serve the gravy with the pie slices.

Loganair will be expanding its flight network with the launch of three new routes.
In a joint announcement with partner airline Flybe, the Scottish carrier said it would launch a new flight between Aberdeen and Cardiff in April.
Further flights will be launched in May linking Blackpool, the Isle of Man and Belfast.
David Harrison, Loganair’s chief executive, said he was "delighted" that the airline’s network was expanding.
"The new schedule which we’re announcing today provides additional connections that can only be good news for Scottish leisure and business travellers alike," he said.
The airlines are hoping to capitalise on the recession after it was predicted that more Brits could book domestic flights for their forthcoming summer holiday.
In addition to the new flights, Loganair will be increasing the frequency of flights from Inverness to Stornoway, Edinburgh to Sumburgh, Glasgow to Benbecula and Glasgow to the Isle of Man.
Loganair announced in November that it was reducing fares on its highlands and islands flights by an average of £4.

China's new air defense zone, stretching far into East Asia's international skies, is a historic challenge to the United States, which has dominated the region for decades.
For years, Chinese naval officers have told their U.S. counterparts they are uncomfortable with America's presence in the western Pacific—and Beijing is now confronting strategic assumptions that have governed the region since World War Two.
China's recent maritime muscle-flexing in disputes over the Paracel islands and Scarborough Shoal in the South China Sea and over Japanese-administered islands in the East China Sea has stirred concern and extensive backroom diplomacy in Washington.
But it took the events of the last week to spark an immediate and symbolic response from the United States—the unannounced appearance in the zone of two unarmed B-52 bombers from the fortified island of Guam, the closest U.S. territory to the Chinese coast.
China's unilateral creation of the zone—accompanied by warnings that it would take "defensive emergency measures" against aircraft that didn't identify themselves—has raised the stakes in a territorial dispute with Japan over tiny, uninhabited islands in the area.
(Read more: Goodbye, old guard: Defense mergers may be coming)
Even as some suggest Beijing's move is already backfiring, experts in China say it is a part of a long-term effort, carrying broader historic significance for the United States as the traditional provider of Japanese security.
The regional tensions will loom large when U.S. Vice President Joe Biden travels to Japan, China and South Korea early next week.

New Orleans is a ghost town. Where once I lived a normal and unsuspecting life I'm now met with phantom memories, unfulfilled promises, and overinflated fantasies about the future. Poltergeists fill the streets. They remind me of a past I can no longer participate in. A time when we didn't have to wear a stupid tee shirt to remind us of why New Orleans was amazing - we just knew it was. It was shared knowledge, unspoken and hidden, but always present. It seems so distant now.
All of the bloated and over-hyped stories about the "New New Orleans" and the "entrepreneurial bohemian" New Orleans and the "green" New Orleans will never make up for what we lost. A vibrant American city, shaped by human and natural forces over hundreds of years into something magical, organic, and real has been transformed into a litany of half-truths and vaporware.
At first I was angry. Angry at the Bush administration, angry at our leaders in Congress, angry at the Louisiana statehouse, angry at Ray Nagin, angry at the City Council, angry at my fellow citizens, angry at myself.
Then I felt really, really sad. I fully absorbed the trauma and tragedy of what transpired here, and what little anyone could have done to change the course of history here. How all of this failure had been hundreds of years in the making. How the constant state of mediocrity and do-nothingness was an inherent part of our collective psyché, a part of myself.
Then I felt numb about it all - dazed and bewildered at how all of this went down. But I also started to feel older and wiser. That maybe I needed to just try to get over this thing. And then one day after years of work and grinding I accepted this whole tragedy for what it is. A part of life. A part of my life. An important lesson that will always be with me.
I too have been transformed by Hurricane Katrina. I understand the world in a way that I couldn't conceive of back then. It's a sadder place, one based in the realities of an inefficient government that will let one of its greatest cities fall into complete and utter disarray, that will allow her people to be cast to the wind and out into the streets. It's a world where magic can die, where the most beautiful and intangible experience can be recast again and again into pithy wearable one liners, equally empty and banal. But it's also a world where you can look these tragedies in the eye and overcome them.
I become more aware with each passing day of the valuable life lessons that Katrina and her aftermath gave to me. How to grow up. How to overcome injustice. How to deal with life's blows and get on living. That family truly is the most important thing in the world. That New Orleans is a secret few will ever truly understand, but is absolutely worth saving.
As Mahalia Jackson sings I am finally feeling like I got over. But it's left me with a giant hole in my heart.
New Orleans will one day soon be herself again, but it's going to happen organically through the work of her people. The government isn't coming to save us. We need to quit the hype and increase the good work. Sinn Fein!

Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), DOT.
Supplemental notice of intent.
The FHWA is issuing this notice to advise the public of a change in the study limits of an Environmental Impact Statement being prepared for a proposed transportation project in Dallas and Ellis Counties, Texas.Start Further Info
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Mr. Salvador Deocampo, District Engineer, Federal Highway Administration, 300 East 8th Street, Room 826, Austin, Texas 78701, Telephone 512-536-5950.End Further Info End Preamble Start Supplemental Information
The FHWA, in cooperation with the Texas Department of Transportation (TXDOT) and the Dallas County Department of Public Works, is preparing an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) on the proposal to build Loop 9, a new location highway, from US 287 to IH 20 in Southern Dallas and Northern Ellis Counties. A previous notice, published in the Federal and State Registers identified the study limits as SH 360 to IH 20. Due to changes in the proposed alignment location in the vicinity of SH 360, the study limits have been changed from “SH 360 to IH 20” to “US 287 to IH 20”. The study corridor is still approximately 40 miles.
From a regional perspective, there is still a great demand for additional east-west transportation capacity and access throughout the limits of the corridor. Over the last 30 years, this area has experienced tremendous growth and has more than quadrupled in population. A Major Investment Study (MIS) will be integrated with the EIS. The Loop 9 facility is included in the Mobility 2025 Update: The Metropolitan Transportation Plan as a new location staged parkway calling for the preservation of right-of-way through this corridor. The environmental study will examine viable alternatives and potential transportation modes including the No-Build; Transportation Start Printed Page 2810Systems Management/Congestion Management Systems; controlled access freeway and other potential options. It will also include extensive and continuous public involvement to address the long-term mobility needs of both the region and local communities. The environmental study will include the determination of the number of lanes (four to six are anticipated), roadway configuration and operational characteristics. It will also include a discussion of the effects on the social, economic, and natural environments and of other known and reasonably foreseeable agency actions proposed within the Loop 9 study corridor.
A public scoping meeting was held in June of 2003. This was the first in a series of meetings to solicit public comments on the proposed action during the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) process. In addition, a public hearing will be held following the approval of the Draft EIS. Public notice will be given of the time and place of the meetings and the hearing. The Draft EIS will be available for public and agency review and comment before the public hearing.
To ensure that the full range of issues related to this proposed section are addressed and all significant issues identified, comments and suggestions are invited from all interested parties. Comments or questions concerning this proposed action and the EIS should be directed to the FHWA at the address provided above.Start Signature

Living Proof Exhibit Receives Three Grants
Funding Will Provide Art Therapy for Cancer Survivors
Living Proof Exhibit is pleased to announce the receipt of three grants that will enable the organization to augment the art therapy programming it provides to cancer survivors, patients, and their families. “We are thrilled to be able to reach more survivors and offer more programming,” said executive director Pamela Crouch. “Art therapy provides so many benefits to improve the quality of life of cancer patients and survivors. Donor support is vital to our mission, ensuring that our art therapy programs are always free.”
The grant from Quad City Arts will fund monthly art therapy classes at Gilda’s Club Quad Cities. Each month, artist and art therapist Jacki Olson leads a creative session designed to help members of Gilda’s Club express themselves and work through the emotions associated with cancer. The schedule for these classes is available at www.livingproofexhibit.org.
The grant from the Iowa Arts Council will fund a program called Full Circle Project, where cancer survivors take material that reminds them of their cancer journey, such as hospital gowns, and process it into paper, which will then be made into journals. Instructors include artist Dawn Wohlford-Metallo, faculty from the University of Iowa and St. Ambrose University, and members of the Midwest Writing Center. This two day program will be held at the Figge Art Museum September 6 and 13, 2014.
The grant from the Komen Foundation will fund Wrapping Ourselves in God’s Love, a quilting project for African American breast cancer survivors in the Quad Cities. “This project uses the collective activity of quilting to create, promote, and strengthen the bonds between black breast cancer survivors in the Quad Cities,“ said artist Gaye Shannon-Burnett, who is heading the project.
Living Proof Exhibit is a Quad City non-profit organization that provides art therapy for cancer patients and survivors. It also celebrates the creative spirit of the breast cancer survivor by holding an annual art exhibit, to be held this year at the Figge Art Museum from Aug. 21 to Oct. 26. For more information about Living Proof Exhibit, please visit www.livingproofexhibit.org.
The entry period is now closed. Congratulations to all our artists! Please be patient.
We are in the process of notifying artists whose works were chosen for our exhibit.

Spoiler alert! The huge tilted spoiler (manually adjustable) that you see on the Abarth 695 Esseesse has two purposes. First, it looks cheeky and lastly, it will give you the optimal drag or downforce that the Abarth needs. Tilt it all the way up to 60 degrees and it will generate 42 kg of downforce. And keeping it at zero will add to the car’s performance.
Speaking of performance, this cheeky devil’s quicker than Abarth 595 Competizione. Still using the same 13-year old 1.4-litre inline-four turbo motor, the Esseesse now produces 178 bhp paired to a 5-speed manual. Well, that’s quick enough for it to accelerate from 0-100-kph in 6.7 seconds with a top speed of 225 kph. Plus, the addition of Koni FSD shock absorbers, Akrapovic exhaust and an all-new aluminium bonnet make the 695 Esseesse leaner by 10 kg than the 595 Competizione. Of course, to add more aesthetic appeal, the brake callipers are painted in red.
This also makes the 695 Esseesse the top dog in the Abarth lineup. Inside, there are enough special edition bits to remind you that you’re sitting in a limited edition Abarth. For instance, the laser-cut 695 Essesse logo on the dashboard, the Sabelt bucket seats, carbon fibre gear knob and more Alcantara. Also, these Abarths are limited to only 1390 units. Would you love to have one in your garage?

I wish I had some new news to offer my readers about the situation at Club Dada. The DC9 at Night blog has done an excellent job in covering the story, and I'd recommend you check it out for the latest info. I will tell you that if you were planning tonight to check out Zound Sound's head honcho, Marc Solomon, that the show has been moved from Dada to Sons of Hermann Hall. Friday night's show at Dada, however, is scheduled to go off as planned. I hope that this is a mere road bump in the history of Club Dada, arguably the most significant club in the history of Deep Ellum (certainly the club with the longest reign). Also, there are a couple of really cool shows happening there in the near future. Next friday, King Bucks and Macon Greyson play, along with the debut of Noah Caveny's new band, The Marfalites. And then of course, there's my anniversary show bash Friday, July 31st.
As for tonight, I invite you all to hang out with me at Lakewood Bar and Grill for a fabulous night of music. The poster tells you all you need to know, other than to be at the club at 9:00 for the entertainment.


FBI Special Counsel Robert Mueller reportedly obtained a search warrant for records of the "inauthentic" accounts Facebook shut down earlier this month and the targeted ads these accounts purchased during the 2016 election.
Legal experts say the revelation has enormous implications for the trajectory of Mueller's investigation into Russia's election interference, and whether Moscow had any help from President Donald Trump's campaign team.
"This is big news — and potentially bad news for the Russian election interference 'deniers,'" said Asha Rangappa, a former FBI counterintelligence agent.
Rangappa, now an associate dean at Yale Law School, explained that to obtain a search warrant a prosecutor needs to prove to a judge that there is a reason to believe a crime has been committed. The prosecutor then has to show that the information being sought will provide evidence of that crime.

It has been more than a year of inaction for Roger Federer now. He last played at the Australian Open 2020, where the Swiss maestro saw a straight-set loss against the Serbian Novak Djokovic. It was a tough series for him where he had to test his physical limits in 2 five-setters. The 20-time grand slam champion later in the same year underwent double knee surgeries. All of this kept him away from the tennis court even after various countries lifted lockdown and the sport made a much-awaited return. However, the latest news is a big positive for the Federer camp. Martina Navratilova reflected on the comeback of Roger Federer The Swiss great will make his return to the ATP Tour at the Qatar ExxonMobil Open in Doha. Also, the latest development suggests that he can then play an ATP 500 tournament in nearby Dubai. In a recent interview, a jovial Martina Navratilova learned the news and reacted with some humor. The 18-time women’s Grand Slam champion expressed, “I think he just wants to stay in Burj Al Arab again, but amazing! “It’s great to see Roger back, it’s about time for him sitting for over a year. So I’m glad he’s healthy and playing again.” That he is coming back with an ATP 250 will ensure that he does not have to put too much pressure on himself for advancing deeper in the event. Prior to this, there were headlines that alleged Roger was fit enough to return for Australian Open 2021 and that he decided against it because of family reasons. Can the Ninjafed make a successful return? Roger Federer gestures to the spectators before hitting signed tennis balls into the stands during the 2019 Hopman Cup. (Photo by Paul Kane/Getty Images)Well, it might be an ATP 250, but it has participation from some of the best ATP players. The 2020 US Open champion Dominic Thiem, the ATP Cup 2021 hero Andrey Rublev, and of course King Roger himself will stay in the highlight of the event. Apart from these names, there are six players from the Top-20 that’ll make the competition juicier. From Roger’s Swiss companion Stan Wawrinka to Roberto Bautista Agut, Gael Monfils, and others, it will not be an easy draw for the legendary 39-YO. However, the rusty Federer is also the mighty Federer, and he has always dominated all the aforementioned names with his stinging play. Also notably, his participation in the Dubai event will depend on how his body reacts to the Qatar event. The event will kick off on March 8th and the world will cheer for the arguable GOAT.

Karachi: Lahore Qalandars captain Sohail Akhtar has said that they will try to manage Pakistan’s leading pacer Shaheen Shah Afridi’s workload during the Pakistan Super League (PSL) season six.
While talking to media in a pre-tournament presser, Sohail revealed that the star pacer won’t be overburdened and will be provided rest when needed.
“He is an asset for Pakistan and we will try to manage his workload properly by giving him rest whenever it is needed and possible by the team,” he said.
Sohail emphasized that in the last season, their spin attack was weak and after Rashid Khan’s arrival in the side, the attack is now strengthened.
“Rashid Khan is the top bowler of the world. With his arrival our spin attack has also got some much-needed experience and it has made our bowling attack a top class one,” Akhtar said.
Meanwhile, Sohail is confident of doing well this season too as they were the runners-up in PSL 2020. “We played good cricket last year. We came so near to the title but couldn’t finish well. This year, we will try to overcome our all shortcomings and give our best. the Qalandars are positive and focused about the upcoming tournament.”

Odisha FC head coach Gerald Peyton has revealed that they are going with a gameplan when they face FC Goa at the Fatorda Stadium, this Wednesday evening. The ‘Juggernauts’, placed at the bottom of the table, have won just one game in the season and collected 9 points from 17 matches so far.Odisha FC’s Interim Head Coach Gerry Peyton is now ready with a gameplan for the home team FC Goa for their next game in the Hero Indian Super League (ISL). Attending the Pre-Match Press Conference ahead of the upcoming match against the Gaurs, he said that it is difficult to play matches in quick succession; however, he will want certain players to be fresh and have legs to do well tomorrow.“They have done well because of which they are at the top of the table. I think all the top teams now, like Mumbai yesterday, are showing little bit of nerves. We will go there with a gameplan to do well and get a result,” the 64-year-old professional explained.“I think it’s (playing back-to-back games) very difficult because we only finished last night going through all the details. Now I am starting to prepare for the training today with all the information how we are going to play against Goa. That sort of things – quick succession of games, the physical demands on the players, who is fit and who is not fit, having players fit…. Like last game, I rested Diego (Mauricio) thinking he comes on second half and then I want him fresh for the game against Goa. I want Diego to score two or three goals against Goa. I know I am asking too much, I always ask too much. I want Brad (Inman) fresh and I want certain payers fresh so that we have legs to do well against Goa.”Elaborating more about Odisha FC’s plan, he mentioned, “When you look at the second half against NorthEast, we had a high percentage of passing, higher than them. We also had 81% accuracy of pass and against Goa, they are a good passing team. I know their tactics; I know how they will play against us. We will play in a certain way. After 15 minutes, we seem to settle down and then start to pass or we start to get our game together. This is going to be important that we start straight from the off.”With three games to go for the Kalinga Warriors in the seventh season of the League, Coach Peyton, who had joined before the start of the season as an Assistant Coach, said that he is now preparing the team for the next ISL season. “We are now preparing Odisha for next season. What I have said to the players is – This is your challenge. If you want to be successful next season then you have to prepare now for next season. Everything you do now is in preparation to get off to a winning start next season. If you don’t prepare now and let this season go, you are still in that state of mind when you start next season. These three games are very important,” the former Arsenal Coach asserted. Follow us on Facebook hereStay connected with us on Twitter hereLike and share our Instagram page here .

MANILA, Philippines — Manny Pacquiao showed a glimpse of what boxing fans have been missing since he last made an appearance in the ring 19 months ago.
The Filipino boxing legend on Monday posted a video of himself on social media flashing his killer hand speed and footwork as he makes his seemingly impending ring return later this year.
“Month by month, week by week, day by day. Always focused and ready to fight,” said Pacquiao in the caption.

Pacquiao has been idle since his impressive win over Keith Thurman back in July 2019 in Las Vegas for the WBA (Super) welterweight title.
The 42-year-old, whose inactivity largely due to the COVID-19 pandemic was relegated by the WBA as its “champion in recess,” is reportedly in talks for a fight against phenom Ryan Garcia.
In a separate post last week, Pacquiao hinted at a “big news coming soon” that had fight fans speculating about his next bout.

After a bumpy start to the 2020-21 NBA season, the Golden State Warriors are getting back in form. They made several changes to their roster in the offseason and it took some time for the players to settle in. But with the All-Star break almost here, the Dubs are looking consistent. The credit for their newfound success goes to none other than their veteran duo of Steph Curry and Draymond Green. Recently, the two stars flaunted their skills against the Cavaliers in a comfortable 129-98 victory. Curry continued his hot scoring streak with 36 points against the Cavs. On the other hand, Green handled the facilitating duties for the team as he finished the game with 16 assists. The two stars have shouldered the burden for the team in the absence of Klay Thompson. But can the Warriors go all the way and win another championship? We will find out in the coming months. Steph Curry and Draymond Green: The two pillars for the Golden State Warriors Golden State Warriors forward Kent Bazemore (26) and forward Juan Toscano-Anderson (95) and guard Stephen Curry (30) and forward Draymond Green (23) during the game between the Dallas Mavericks and the Golden State Warriors at the American Airlines Center. Mandatory Credit: Jerome Miron-USA TODAY SportsFollowing this sensational victory, Juan Toscano-Anderson gave an interesting post-game interview. He said: “I am a beneficiary of these guys, their hall of fame IQ. You know Draymond [Green] had 16 assists today and that’s amazing from our starting center. Last five games, he’s in double digits assists. … Either Steph [Curry] is open or Imma be open. “I’m aware that the defense ain’t gonna leave him so I just find those gaps and get those easy buckets. I know Draymond sees everything. Sometimes he sees it a little too quick before any of us see it, but it’s great to play with a guy like that.” Draymond Green has always been an amazing playmaker for the Dubs. Even during their stretch of dominance in the mid 2010s, he took on the role of a facilitator for their championship teams. This season, he is elevating his game further in that department.

Chennai: India captain Virat Kohli said Tuesday his side showed more “grit” and “determination” to thrash England in the second Test, playing down complaints about the difficult pitch.
With local hero Ravichandran Ashwin claiming eight wickets in the match and scoring 106 in the second innings, India completed a 317-run victory inside four days in Chennai.
Left-arm spinner Axar Patel claimed a five-wicket haul on his Test debut as England were out for 164 while chasing an unlikely 482 on day four.
Some said the Chennai pitch, which crumbled from nearly the first day, was not fit for a Test.
But England made no public complaint and Kohli rejected the criticism and said his side played a “perfect game”.
“I think our application with the bat was outstanding,” said the India captain.
“The conditions were challenging for both sides but we showed more application and grit and determination to battle it out.
“We didn’t panic out there looking at the hard turn and bounce on that pitch.”
Kohli highlighted that India scored 600 runs over two innings despite the conditions, and winning the toss made no difference.
“So if you put up that kind of batting performance and you string in those important batting partnerships then we know that our bowlers are going to do the job.”
England captain Joe Root conceded that his side were “outplayed in all three departments this week” and had to learn quickly before the third Test in Ahmedabad.
But he added: “I would say it was a challenging wicket. I do think that it was an important toss to win.”
England, he said, now have to be “honest” and learn quickly to adapt to conditions in India.
England, struggling since the opening day, kept losing wickets after resuming on 53-3 on day four.
Root departed for 33 soon after lunch, falling to Patel.
Left-arm wrist spinner Kuldeep Yadav joined in to finish off the innings, taking Moeen Ali after he smashed 43 off 18 balls.
The last wicket partnership of 38 between Ali and Stuart Broad, unbeaten on five, was England’s highest of the match.
England, who have been resting and rotating players, said Ali would be returning home after the Test.
Ali had coronavirus in Sri Lanka but recovered to take a total of eight wickets in the second Test against India.
Ashwin’s five wickets to help bowl out England for 134 in the first innings in response to India’s 329 set the tone for the host’s dominance.
England conceded a lead of 195 and then struggled on a pitch that offered turn from day one.
“This wicket was very different to the one we played on in the first game,” Ashwin conceded, but he added that the wickets had not fallen from the balls he expected.
“It was the mind of the batsmen that got us wickets.”
Opener Rohit Sharma hit an attacking 161 to set up India’s big innings after they won the toss and elected to bat first.
Sharma’s seventh Test century and his first against England raised the pitch of the returning Indian crowd — present in a stadium for the first time since the coronavirus pandemic.
Kohli made 62 in the second innings, putting on a key 96-run seventh-wicket partnership with Ashwin on day three.
Both sides need to win the series to take the second place in the World Test Championship final against New Zealand later this year.
The third Test — a day-night match — will begin in Ahmedabad on February 24.
Authorities have not said if fans will be allowed into the world’s biggest cricket stadium — with a 100,000-plus capacity — for the game.

Johnathan Thurston says he’ll strongly consider joining Queensland’s State of Origin coaching staff if offered a role for the 2021 series.The Maroons legend, who made 37 Origin appearances is widely tipped to serve as an assistant under newly appointed Queensland coach Paul Green.”Once you’re in it it’s very consuming, I love the Maroon jersey everything about it, so yeah if I get asked yeah I’d certainly consider it,” Thurston said.JT toasts the aggression reignited into Origin: JT’s Roast and Toast”I’ve got to talk to the boss first because four young kids at home, eight, six, four and two this year they are. The eight-year-old is going on 18 so it’s tough times for the wife.”Thurston and Green combined as captain and coach to deliver the Cowboys’ first NRL premiership in 2015 and JT believes his former mentor will make a seamless transition into Origin.”There’s been a lot of talk about his intensity and things like that, but it’s State of Origin, it’s the best players you’re working with,” Thurston said.”It’s about making sure everyone understands their role in the team and that’s what he brought to the Cowboys. “He’s one of the best footy brains going round Greeny, so I’m predicting our boys will go back-to-back with him at the helm.” What Origin means to QueenslandersThurston’s home town of Townsville will host the first major match of the year when the NRL All Stars game kicks off on Saturday and he’s advocating for North Queensland to stage a State of Origin match as well. “Yeah 100 percent. Not only can we hopefully attract an Origin game but hopefully we can attract teams from other codes to come and play because it’s a world class stadium it’s a world class high performance centre … so that’s what we want.”For a daily dose of the best of the breaking news and exclusive content from Wide World of Sports, subscribe to our newsletter by clicking here!

yasiin bey's Homecoming Show Was A Touching and Hopeful Meditation On Fame
Photo by Sinat Giwa for Okayplayer
"I'm too old for frontin'...and it does not go with my wardrobe."
One time for the mighty yasiin bey FKA Mos Def AKA Black Dante AKA Pretty Flacco. Hours after releasing his collaborative project with Ferrari Sheppard, bey hit the stage of Harlem's historic Apollo Theater for the first of his final four performances before retirement. The career-spanning set, covering his earliest to his latest, was not skim on the surprises, showcasing the evolution of the artist through two decades of dazzling, though he was explicit in his distaste for the life in several heartfelt asides.
Selections from his new album, Dec 99th, opened the evening, quickly transitioning into cuts from The Ecstatic, providing at least this writer a newfound appreciation for the 2009 release, even before Slick Rick joined in for a raucous performance of "Auditorium," that left bey with audible exclamations of disbelief ("that really happened!") The Ruler wasn't the only friend in tow. Pharoahe Monch stepped out about halfway through to perform his bey x Nate Dogg collaboration "Oh No," before "Simon Says" ripped through the system and had concertgoers rushing the stage.
There was even a little love for the A-1s with the inclusion of Black On Both Sides standouts "Hip-Hop" and "Umi Says," a track that had bey visibly and audibly emotional before launching into its hopeful hook. Hope, ironically enough, is one of the central sentiments of this final run. He railed at the audience for their distance, hiding behind "robots" in their pockets (cell phones,) plead with us that our strongest and most reliable machines were our natural ones, pointing to his head, rubbing on his heart. In his return, bey just wants to remind us that we can't duck our ills by distracting ourselves with four to five inch screens, that 2017 will be just as trying as this miserable year has been and that we are as powerful as we believe him to be.
Every moment of last night's performance was as much a dedication to us, the listener, as it was a celebration of the time he's shared with us. And as the curtain closed on bey and his red and white rose pedal adorned stage, just after previewing his genre-destroying final album, Negus In Natural Person, he made sure we knew it wasn't goodbye. Just a fond farewell to a friend.

I have often wondered what top chefs eat for dinner after a long day in the kitchen. Are they starving after being on their feet for hours on end, or can they not stand to look at food anymore? Do they make a PB&J, or whip up some incredible four course meal in, like, 10 minutes? Personally, after a long, tiring day, I usually can't wait for Seamless, and settle on (probably slightly stale) cereal. Could pro chefs be the same? Click through to find out.
