Iga Swiatek and Coco Gauff will be among those taking the court, while the men’s lineup features Casper Ruud and Jannik Sinner. Let’s take a look at the best bets to be made on the Day 5 schedule. I made 3 plus-money picks on Wednesday and cashed 2 of them, so the strategy remains the same.

Hundreds of people visited a small town in Missouri this week and last to see a Black nun whose body has barely decomposed since 2019 Hundreds of people flocked to a small town in Missouri this week and last to see a Black nun whose body has barely decomposed since 2019. Some say it's a sign of holiness in Catholicism, while others say the lack of decomposition may not be as rare as people think. Sister Wilhelmina Lancaster was exhumed in April, according to a statement from the Benedictines of Mary, Queen of Apostles, in Gower, Missouri. The nuns had been preparing for the addition of a St. Joseph shrine, and that involved “the reinterment of the remains of our beloved foundress, Sister Wilhelmina,” the statement said. When they exhumed Lancaster, they were told to expect only bones, since she had been buried in a simple wooden coffin without any embalming four years ago. Instead, they discovered an intact body and “a perfectly preserved religious habit," the statement said.

French police have thrown a security cordon around a shareholders meeting in Paris of oil major TotalEnergies PARIS -- French police threw a security cordon around a shareholders' meeting in Paris of oil major TotalEnergies on Friday, spraying tear gas and pushing back climate protesters who chanted, “Be gentle, police officers, we're doing this for your kids!" Shareholders, some escorted into the meeting by police, ran a gauntlet of the peaceful, earnest and mostly young demonstrators, who waved signs attacking the climate record of the French energy giant that has reaped colossal profits from price surges that followed Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Their signs declared, “The last pipeline before the end of the world” and “Listen to the scientists: No more fossil projects.” Protesters sat down in surrounding streets and linked arms to block access to the meeting in a famed Paris concert hall. Police officers carried some protesters to move them out of the way. They

Damage that has gone unrepaired for months at a Russian-occupied dam is causing dangerously high water levels along a reservoir in southern Ukraine LYSOHIRKA, Ukraine -- The rising waters came as a relief at first, for both the tiny community living on the island s in the southern Kakhovka Reservoir and for everyone who had feared the low levels risked a meltdown at the nearby Russian-occupied nuclear power plant. Since mid-February, the water level in the reservoir has steadily increased, according to data from Theia, a French geospatial analytical organization. An Associated Press analysis of satellite imagery showed the water has now risen so high that it's washing over the top of the damaged Russian-occupied dam downstream. The waves first covered the natural shoreline, then submerged the marsh grasses. Next they came for Lyudmila Kulachok's garden, then Ihor Medyunov's guest room. The wild boars fled for higher ground, replaced by water fowl. Medyunov’s four dogs have

Super Typhoon Mawar could directly hit Guam with winds as strong as 160 mph. It is expected to strike around noon local time Wednesday. A powerful typhoon is headed toward Guam, which could be the strongest tropical cyclone to impact the island in decades. Typhoon Mawar could directly hit Guam with winds as strong as 140 mph -- equivalent to a Category 4 hurricane. The strong tropical cyclone is expected to strike around noon local time Wednesday, which would be around 10 p.m. ET Tuesday. This is exceptionally rare to have a direct hit from Category 4 typhoon as the last time the island got hit by such a strong typhoon was in 1976. Earlier in the day, Super Typhoon Mawar was projected to hit Guam with winds as strong as 160 mph -- equivalent to a Category 5 hurricane. This satellite image obtained from the The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration shows Typhoon Mawar, as it approached Guam on May 23, 2023, at 21:50 UTC.

ORLANDO, Fla. -- The NAACP over the weekend issued a travel advisory for Florida, joining two other civil rights groups in warning potential tourists that recent laws and policies championed by Gov.
