This sensor needs a quick setup to connect it to your phone. Once it’s ready, it sits and waits to spring into action—alerting you to unwanted water. A leaky toilet, a distant basement sink, a backed-up shower drain or an old faucet are all perfect reasons to invest the $40 retail cost. There are some things to know about this sensor, but on the whole, it works as advertised. It’s a solid choice to stay informed....

Your physical therapist (PT) can assess your condition and provide you with treatments and exercises to help you fully recover. Symptoms An Achilles tendon tear usually occurs as a result of sudden trauma to your foot and ankle. If you jump up and land suddenly, step into a hole, or run and then perform rapid starts and stops (such as cutting maneuvers in sports), you may rupture the tendon....
Since experiments keep proving quantum ideas right, physicists are forced to take them seriously. It isn’t easy. They have to admit that a particle can be in two places at once. They have to accept that subatomic systems can become so “entangled” that measuring one affects the other even if the two are light-years apart, which Einstein called “spooky action at a distance.” But even as quantum weirdness provides fodder for such drivel as the best-selling book “The Secret,” it also fuels debate on subjects as lofty as the nature of reality....

Mrs. Clinton won’t be thanking her any time soon. Though Stewart and Thomases are friends, he quickly broadened his investigation from the Clintons’ critics to the Clintons themselves. Sensing their blunder, the First Lady and her advisers never delivered on their promise to open up to Stewart, but he had already picked up the scent. “Blood Sport,” his book about the scandal that will be published this week by Simon & Schuster, has no devastating revelations....
There are also a few fresh characters in the second season, including a new addition to the teaching staff at the school, Mike Shubin, played by Pico Alexander. At the end of episode three, there was a big cliffhanger that revealed Mike is on a mission to uncover Gossip Girl’s identity, and he (quite rightly) thinks Kate Keller (Tavi Gevinson) is the woman behind the keyboard. But who is Pico Alexander?...
Not only was this Archie’s first visit to South Africa, but it also marked his first official engagement. The baby is believed to be the youngest member of the royal family to tour with his parents. His cousin Prince George formerly held the title after joining his parents, Prince William and Kate Middleton, on their 2014 tour of Australia when he was just eight months old. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s royal Instagram account shared videos of Markle carrying Archie while walking down a corridor alongside her husband....
Osaka was defeated by 18-year-old Leylah Fernandez and was apparently frustrated by the loss, which saw her out of the competition. She slammed her racket off the ground during the match and even threw it at one point. Morgan took to Twitter early Saturday to share a video of Osaka’s treatment of the racket from Business Insider sports reporter Meredith Cash and took the opportunity to defend his previous comments....
Chimeras are organisms made of cells from two genetically distinct individuals—normally two different species. The word comes from Greek mythology, with Chimera being a fire-breathing creature composed of a lion, goat and serpent. In genetics, it is hoped chimeras could one day result in human organs being grown inside animals that can then be transplanted. Shortages of organs for transplants is a problem facing nations across the world—according to the United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS), there are over 113,000 currently on the waiting list for a transplant in the U....
But how well do these pillboxes actually work in practice? According to a small 2009 study by Odette Gould, a psychology professor at Mount Allison University in Sackville, N.B., they may not be as effective — or safe — as they are intended to be. Through her study published in the Canadian Pharmacists Journal, Gould and her colleagues discovered that few people seem to use pillboxes as they are meant to be used....
Caernarfon Magistrates Court was told that Richard Charles Priestley Wood, 60, of Chelsea, London, appeared “flippant” and “arrogant” after being told that he had landed at a military airfield and was in breach of COVID-19 regulations. Wood had initially planned to visit his mum in Yorkshire but after she told him she was busy, he decided to do something else and landed at RAF Valley, the court was told....
At least, that’s the dream. Two years ago Denmark and Sweden opened the so-called Oresund Link, a 16-kilometer bridge and tunnel joining Copenhagen to the Swedish port of Malmo, now just 40 minutes away by train. Visionaries saw their chance to promote this patch as a single region of 3.5 million residents–highly skilled, educated, English-speaking and (presumably) happy to study and work on either side of the strait. With communism gone and the Baltic nations beginning to reknit their old Hanseatic ties, Oresund seemed destined for a bright future as a growing commercial hub....

Pique was unsurprisingly selected from the start in Kazan as La Roja earned their first win of the tournament with a 1-0 victory over Iran, after being held to a thrilling 3-3 draw by Portugal in their Group B opener last Friday. The Barcelona defender made his debut for the national team in 2009 and helped them to glory at the 2010 World Cup and 2012 European Championship. His national team career has not been without controversy however, with Pique having often been jeered by Spain fans for his views on Catalan independence....
“Maybe I need to dropkick a pitcher,’’ McCutchen said, via the Associated Press. ‘‘Maybe that will scare them into not throwing at me.” MORE: Ranking the top 10 unbreakable baseball records Braves pitcher Julio Teheran struck McCutchen in the left elbow with a fastball on a 1–1 count in the first inning. The four-time All-Star, who doesn’t wear an elbow pad because he says it interferes with his swing, was replaced by pinch-runner Jung Ho Kang....
In the third quarter of the Pistons’ 88-82 loss to the Bulls on Saturday, Jackson was forced to improvise with the shot clock winding down. What resulted was pretty amazing.

In a wide-ranging interview with the New York Daily News, Manfred said he expects continued discussions with the MLB Players’ Association on the topic now that terms of the new collective bargaining agreement have been worked out. “I think our players either understand or will come to understand the need to deal with the pace-of-play issues," Manfred said. “I went around my first year as commissioner and spoke to the players on every team in the clubhouse....
