"I'd probably think of how many I missed," Crosby said Thursday, while technically still on No. 499. No. 500 came Thursday against the Lightning. "It's been great. It's going by quick." Coach Dan Bylsma put it more bluntly: "He's getting old, I guess, in the league. He's getting upward in age."

Carlo Petrini, 71, a pioneer of the “slow food” movement, spoke with the head of the Catholic Church between May 2018 and July 2020 on a number of topics for the book Terra Futura: Conversations with Pope Francis on integral ecology. During the dialogues, the pope, who was born Jorge Bergoglio in Argentina, described the pleasures of a well-cooked meal and “sexual pleasure.” In his view, these had previously fallen victim to “overzealousness” by the Catholic Church in the past in what was a “wrong interpretation of the Christian message....

Messi gets four-game ban The Real Madrid star bagged two against Hungary last week to register his 69th and 70th goals for the European Championship holders, before following up with another in Portugal’s friendly with Sweden on Tuesday. The Madeira man was able to drift into the six-yard box to meet Gelson Martins’ clever cross, before neatly guiding the ball past a helpless Karl Johnsson. The goal moves him joint-ninth in the all-time goalscorers list, alongside Germany’s Miroslav Klose, and just six behind Brazil legend Pele....

Not that we mind waiting, with a cast this diverting. Indeed, the mystery itself is the least interesting aspect of the film. What intrigues us are the fraught social dynamics, the class tensions between servants and masters, the subtle, nasty games of one-upmanship played by the guests of the powerful Sir William McCordle (Michael Gambon) and his icily soignee wife, Lady Sylvia (Kristin Scott Thomas). Among the invited are the preposterously snobbish Countess of Trentham (Maggie Smith, venomously entertaining), the film star Ivor Novello (Jeremy Northam), a Hollywood producer (Bob Balaban) attended by his “Scottish valet” (Ryan Phillippe) and a gaggle of aristocrats more desperate than their titles would suggest....

Japanese gaming guru Hiroyuki kicked off the Sony-slam with a question: “How many of you own a PS2?” Hands shot up all over the room. “What are you playing on it?” asked Hiroyuki, who goes by one name.
