Crystal Palace progressed to the quarter-finals of the FA Cup at a sun-kissed, slightly distracted Selhust Park. A 3-1 win against opponents who played with 10 men for 85 minutes was comfortable enough in the end. Sadly this south London derby will be remembered instead for a single outstanding act of violence.

It took place inside the stadium this time, and in front of the watching millions, as the Millwall goalkeeper Liam Roberts launched a scrambled, wildly dangerous flying challenge into the head of Jean-Philippe Mateta with just five minutes gone. In the process Miller killed his own continued participation in the game, not to mention a large portion of the BBC live broadcast, and could conceivably have done the same to Mateta.

Health secretary earlier said outbreak was ‘not unusual’ but with first US measles death in decade steps up response

Two days after initially downplaying the outbreak as “not unusual,” the US health secretary, Robert F Kennedy Jr, on Friday said he recognizes the serious impact of the ongoing measles epidemic in Texas – in which a child died recently – and said the government is providing resources, including protective vaccines.

“Ending the measles outbreak is a top priority for me and my extraordinary team,” Kennedy – an avowed anti-vaccine conspiracy theorist who for years has sown doubts about the safety and efficacy of vaccines – said in a post on X.

“Preston advance to the FA Cup quarter-finals,” proclaimed the PA announcer at Deepdale. It is a sentence no Preston fan has heard since 1966 but a reality after Paul Heckingbottom’s team produced a dominant display to shred Burnley.

Milutin Osmajic, almost inevitably, was central to Preston’s passage into the last eight. Robbie Brady, with a superb free-kick, Osmajic, with a clinical strike, and a predatory finish from Will Keane gave the hosts victory in the meeting of two founder members of the Football League. Burnley’s previously mean and lauded defence was nowhere to be seen. Defeat could have been greater for Scott Parker’s side.

Watching a kids’ movie about self-acceptance reduced Will Hopkins to a blubbering mess. But Herschel’s reaction made him feel safe and free from judgment

In 2020, I was living in Sydney, working in real estate, attempting to finish my law degree on the side and struggling to juggle full-time work, full-time study and, admittedly, full-time partying. For a while I had been contemplating moving home to Brisbane to escape the chaos of Sydney but, at that time, chaos and I were old friends, and it was a friendship I thought would prevail my whole life.

I met Herschel on 20 December 2020 at about 10pm. I remember it well as it was also the day that a once firmly held belief of mine was shattered into oblivion.

It was yet another reminder that Trump and his associates will turn even the sex trafficking of minors into a photo op

Drum roll, please: the “most transparent administration in American history” is declassifying shocking new information about Jeffrey Epstein and his associates. After years of speculation that powerful people have been concealing information related to the late financier and convicted sex offender, the Trump administration said earlier this week that it would release unseen details about the case.
