Other lots include a unicorn skull, a centaur skeleton, an artwork of a floating stuffed giraffe attached to balloons, and a motorbike-riding zebra which could fetch more than $35,000. Dubbed “Objects of Wonder,” the wacky auction has been put together by Curated Auctions in London. Buyers will also be able to snap up a stuffed bull shark and even a mounted set of human glass eyes. Some of the unusual products aren’t even all that expensive: A tiny jar of mammoth hair starts at just $23....

To seize this opportunity, the West must acquire a better awareness of the irrefutable facts on which the Azerbaijani views are based. Unfortunately, Armenia, its diaspora and foreign supporters have recently launched a propaganda campaign designed to obscure these facts from view. The immediate goal of the campaign is to bring American and European pressure to bear on Baku. The longer-term goal is to scuttle the peace process that began in November 2020, when Armenia acknowledged its defeat in the war....

You can grab your tickets from Cineworld, Vue, or Odeon in the UK, or from Fandango or Atom Tickets if you’re in the US. But before you go, it may be worth knowing whether or not it’s worth sticking around through the credits to see if there’s any additional scenes that set up for the future. We can reveal all now. Does Gemini Man have a post-credits scene? To save you some time – no....

In the Heat’s Game 6 win over the Celtics in the Eastern Conference Finals, Butler exploded for 47 points, nine rebounds, eight assists and four steals to force a Game 7. Butler made a whole lot of history in the process. Only Wilt Chamberlain has ever scored more points in a playoff win on the road while facing elimination, only LeBron James has ever scored more points in a playoff game in a Heat uniform and Butler became the first player since Michael Jordan with multiple 40-point, four-steal games in a single series....

While it can still be used on offense for PvE situations, Mandibuzz simply doesn’t perform well in them compared to other offensive-minded Pokemon that match its Dark/Flying typing like Yveltal. However, its top 35 maximum stamina stat and above-average defense is why it has been coined “Flying Umbreon” in many circles. If you play Mandibuzz in PvP, it’s easy to see why it’s drawn comparisons to the defense-oriented Eeveelution in Pokemon GO....

The sequel picks up after Tails (Colleen O’Shaughnessey) goes to find Sonic (Ben Schwartz) to look for a familiar face. However, the old troublesome Doctor Robotnik (Jim Carrey) returns, and this time he has some muscle with him in the form of Knuckles the Echidna (Idris Elba). With plenty of action, humour and nods to the game series, this is proving to be a more than worthy sequel to the first flick....

Do AirPods Come With the iPhone 12? With the release of the iPhone 12, a lot of people are planning to upgrade. When you’re upgrading your phone, it’s also a good time to upgrade other key accessories like your headphones. That leads a lot of people to ask: “Do AirPods come with iPhone 12?” It’s a pretty natural question. After all, the iPhone and AirPods make a fantastic combination and if you’re spending hundreds (or thousands in some cases) on a new phone, it makes sense that you might get great wireless headphones included....

With as many Pokemon as there are now (over 800), it’s interesting to look at how many different inspirations have been used for the creatures over the years. The pool for ideas for Pokemon look, moveset, and lore has been extensive since Generation 1, and several hundred Pokemon later, the designers are still creating new and unique designs. RELATED: 10 Underrated Electric Pokemon (That Are Actually Very Strong) Many Pokemon are based on real-world animals, like birds, one such animal being referred to as “man’s best friend,” similar to how Pokemon are described in-game as being companions to humans....

At this time, Dogecoin is worth more than $50 billion, considerably higher than the valuation of $23.9 billion for Credit Suisse and $32 billion for Barclays. Supporters celebrated Dogecoin success while using Credit Suisse as an example of an old institution that doesn’t match the worth of the cryptocurrency. Credit Suisse has been struggling recently. In early April, the lender revealed it was expecting heavy losses in the wake of the collapse of U....

According to research done at the University of Cambridge, Canine Transmissible Venereal Tumors (CTVTs) spread between dogs by skin contact, with the cancer cells sticking to the new dog and “transplanting” themselves between the animals. CTVTs usually only affects dogs’ genitals, spreading via mating, but because dogs also touch each other’s nether regions with their mouths and noses, these areas can also be affected. A study published by the Cambridge University researchers in the journal Veterinary Record has shown that while genital cases of CTVT are seen equally between male and female dogs, males are between four and five times more likely than female dogs to be infected with the oronasal version of the cancer....

Under the so-called “deferred prosecution agreement” announced Friday, the DOJ will dismiss charges of fraud against Meng by December 2022 if she complies with certain conditions including accepting responsibility for her crimes. Meng must also not commit other federal, state or local crimes. If she breaks the agreement, she’ll be subject to prosecution of all the charges against her. “In entering into the deferred prosecution agreement, Meng has taken responsibility for her principal role in perpetrating a scheme to defraud a global financial institution,” Acting U....

The Dolphins opted to bench second-year quarterback Josh Rosen for veteran Ryan Fitzpatrick at the beginning of the fourth quarter of their game against the Redskins. Before he was benched, Rosen threw for 85 yards, completed 15 of 25 passes, no touchdowns and two interceptions. At the time of his benching, the Dolphins trailed the Redskins, 17-3. Shortly after Fitzpatrick was put in, he was able to move the ball 54 yards down the field to set Miami up for its first touchdown off a 1-yard run by Kalen Ballage....

After winning their season-opener against the New England Patriots, the Dolphins’ season has been a trainwreck. From injuries to rumors about the team acquiring Deshaun Watson and trading Tua Tagovailoa, the team did everything but win and have now lost seven on the trot. Speaking of Watson, the team that still employs him won’t be playing him this Sunday. The Texans managed to keep hold of their wantaway star but won’t be fielding him anytime soon....

The court ruled in a case between Universal Music and Key-Systems, the German registrar of the domain name for h33t.com, a torrent tracker site. Universal had wanted to prevent unauthorized distribution of Robin Thicke’s album Blurred Lines, said Volker Greimann, Key-Systems’ general counsel, in an email. While Key-Systems argued that it was not responsible for the copyright infringement, the court ruled that the registrar had a duty to investigate after notification of infringing activity and had to take corrective action in case of obvious violations, Greimann said....

The American held a narrow one-shot lead over defending champion Li Haotong entering the final round at the Emirates Golf Club, but he carded a superb eight-under 64 to finish seven strokes clear of Matt Wallace. Li had triumphed 12 months ago on 23 under, but even matching that feat this time around would not have been enough for the Chinese, who could only make a 71 as he finished in a five-way tie for third on 16 under, alongside the likes of former champions Sergio Garcia and Alvaro Quiros, and Ian Poulter....

Years later, Myrna retired, sold her home, and she and her husband moved to Arizona. Her husband did odd jobs, and they collected social security. Then the student-loan debt collector came-a-knocking. In 2010, he demanded immediate payment. Myrna filed a bankruptcy petition in response. Myrna had few records of her payments over the years, and, tellingly, the collector was having difficulty calculating the total amount owed. By the time Myrna appeared in my courtroom for trial, she was seventy-three-years old, and she owed $584,854....

Then in the span of a few short days we had LeBron trashing the Cavs for not being committed to winning and triggering a firestorm with owner Dan Gilbert and GM David Griffin, plus a very personal beef with Charles Barkley; Wade nuking his Bulls teammates for not caring, and then having Rajon Rondo answer with a scathing rebuke in what now is a classic Instagram; and Anthony having to once again defend himself as Phil Jackson tries to run him out of New York....
