The Force is strong with this 1 percent. Maybe they should call it Starboard Wars. What started out as “a bit of fun,” according to creative director Rob Armstrong, has become an annual tradition for the yacht designers at Thirtyc. Every year, the UK-based firm puts out a Star Wars-themed yacht, with characters or spacecraft from the franchise on board different superyachts. This week, in celebration of the unofficial Star Wars Day (May the 4th Be With You), Thirtyc released its latest series using yacht tenders driven by Star Wars characters. “We did our first one when we opened the…
Tottenham star Richarlison has ‘been a joke’ and is the ‘flop of the season’. The Tottenham forward made the switch to north London from Everton for a deal worth around £60million. However, Richarlison has failed to make an impact since he joined the side, scoring just three goals throughout his debut campaign. Appearances in the starting XI have also been limited for the 26-year-old, and Gabby Agbonlahor believes he’s been the worst player this season. Speaking to former Spurs star Jamie O’Hara on the GameDay Phone-In, the talkSPORT host said: “You look at Richarlison, how many chances is he going…

This is the story of my SURPRISE twins. Not like “SURPRISE! You’re having twins.” It was like, “SURPRISE! You just had twins!”. I always measured “correctly” for one baby. I always only found one heartbeat with the Doppler. I had terrible, terrible morning sickness followed by a month of unbelievable migraines that the chiropractor couldn’t even help! I can’t believe my skin didn’t explode from swelling that last month. Turns out it was a compound presentation (otherwise known as Superman position, not nuchal). So, I went to the chiro, then immediately went in to get another ultrasound. My midwife warned…
Gentlemen do truly prefer blondes, and ‘tall, dark, and handsome’ are the features of an ideal man. This is according to artificial intelligence tools that learn from the billions of images on social media sites depicting beautiful people. The Bulimia Project, an eating disorder awareness group, asked AI to produce the ‘perfect’ male and female bodies, according to what gets most engagement on social media. Researchers from the organization found that the most desirable women had blonde hair, olive skin, brown eyes, and slim figures, while the ‘perfect’ male had dark, smoldering eyes, chiseled cheekbones and defined muscles. Most of…
McLaren just debuted its latest supercar: the $1.68 million “Elva.” “It’s fitting that the new McLaren Ultimate Series roadster – a uniquely modern car that delivers the ultimate connection between driver, car, and the elements and with that new heights of driving pleasure on-road or track – acknowledges our rich heritage with the Elva name,” McLaren CEO Mike Flewitt said. The Ultimate Series is what it sounds like: McLaren’s most outrageous machine. The Elva joins the Senna, Senna GTR, and Speedtail. McLaren has never before produced an open-cockpit design, and the British brand’s debut effort is unique: it lacks a…
Jesse Lingard left Manchester United last summer but reunited with Marcus Rashford off the field recently.

The former England international had fallen out of favour at Old Trafford, with off-pitch personal issues understandably affecting his form under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and Ralf Rangnick. Despite his on-field struggles, Lingard remained…
The snake had managed to snare the marsupial before rolling onto to the 17th hole to devour its prey – then it went for a long rest.

Britain was celebrating the last Coronation when one of these things first tumbled off the production line — a revolutionary four-wheeled pod designed as a low-cost, eye-catching urban runaround. Even Cary Grant took to touring Hollywood in what the manufacturers called an Isetta and what the world came to know as a ‘bubble car’. Seven decades on, the concept is back. This time, however, the bubble is bigger, tougher, faster, more comfortable and eco-friendly since it is entirely electric. It is also between a third and half the price of the next tier of electric cars. And even though the…

Among Tom Cruise’s long list of action blockbusters, his 2004’s Collateral is often overlooked by the general audience, but a substantial amount of fans consider it one of his best works. Even though the movie comprises a lot of aspects that strengthen its quality, including one of Cruise’s finest performances, Jason Statham’s mystery appearance in the film left the audience startled for years.
