Bruised Ronaldo scores twice to edge showdown with MessiCristiano Ronaldo looks on as Lionel Messi and Neymar come together. Although his team lost, Ronaldo edged perhaps the final instalment of Ronaldo vs. Messi as one of the greatest rivalries in football history resumed in an unusual location. They couldn't do that earlier on the field, when Ronaldo tackled Messi in the second minute. There was scant interaction between former Madrid star Ronaldo and Messi, his arch rival during Barcelona's glory days. The laugh was on Ramos later, when he air-kicked a loose ball on Ronaldo’s second goal.

Libyan accused in 1988 Lockerbie bombing now in US custody

A police officer walks by the nose of crashed Pan Am flight 103 in 1988. American authorities in December 2020 announced charges against Masud, who was in Libyan custody at the time. Though he is the third Libyan intelligence official charged in the US in connection with the attack, he would be the first to appear in an American courtroom for prosecution. The New York-bound Pan Am flight exploded over Lockerbie less than an hour after takeoff from London on December 21, 1988. He also said the operation was ordered by Libyan intelligence and that Gadhafi thanked him and other members of the team after the attack, according to an FBI affidavit filed in the case.

Expedia allows friends to book holiday at non-existent Tongan resort

And, six months later, when Wendy Smyth was able to book at a beach resort on the mainland, she didn't give it a second thought. ADVERTISEMENTUsually Wendy would give the hotel a credit card on arrival, but this time she prepaid - and paying upfront - would prove costly. Wendy had to get her credit card out and pay more - all up perhaps $2500. After multiple emails, Expedia told Wendy it couldn't reach the resort to discuss her booking. Wendy is happy she can clear her credit card and accepts Expedia's apology, though she still thinks it owes one to Tonga as well.

Mistrial declared in actor Danny Masterson's rape trial

A judge declared a mistrial today after jurors said they were hopelessly deadlocked at the trial of That ’70s Show actor Danny Masterson, who was charged with three rapes. Masterson, 46, was charged with the rape of three women, including a former girlfriend, in his Hollywood Hills home between 2001 and 2003. The jury foreman said only two jurors voted for conviction on the first count, four voted for conviction on the second count and five voted to convict on the third count. But at the Masterson trial, as at the Haggis trial, the #MeToo implications were largely eclipsed by the spectre of Scientology, despite the judge’s insistence that the church not become a de facto defendant. Cohen told jurors they could acquit Masterson if they thought he "actually and reasonably believed" the women consented to having sex.

Steve Bannon gets 4 months behind bars for defying Capitol riots subpoena

Steve Bannon, a long-time ally of former President Donald Trump, was sentenced today to serve four months behind bars after defying a subpoena from the House committee investigating the January 6 insurrection at the US Capitol. Nichols handed down the sentence after saying the law was clear that contempt of Congress is subject to a mandatory minimum sentence of at least one month behind bars. “In my view, Mr. Bannon has not taken responsibility for his actions,” Nichols said before he imposed the sentence. The onetime presidential adviser said he wanted to have a Trump lawyer in the room, but the committee wouldn’t allow it. Bannon is also facing separate money laundering, fraud and conspiracy charges in New York related to the “We Build the Wall” campaign.
