The skinny: Amelio was always the wrong guy for the job. His expertise was in chips, not PCs, and while he did make strides toward reforming the company’s cash-flow problems, he never figured out how to position Apple in a world where Microsoft rules the desktop and everything else centers on the Internet. This vision deficit led to a deadly drain in the value of what was once Silicon Valley’s most dynamic brand name, not to mention a historic low in its stock price....

All that said, it’s not clear if these allegations actually involve Elgort. The post doesn’t explicitly identify the actor, and there’s no other proof of any wrongdoing. But that hasn’t stopped Twitter from doing what it does best, starting a trending wave of controversy about the allegations. The backlash was swift and fierce, with many saying the actor should be canceled, despite the lack of concrete evidence. The Instagram account @BlackatLaguardia has been consistently used to expose apparent wrongdoings at New York City’s Fiorello H....

It’s true that for a member of the press it was harder than ever to pursue hidden foreign gems—such as the charming Israeli comedy “The Band’s Visit” or Mexican visionary Carlos Reygadas’s mesmerizing, demanding “Silent Light,” about adultery and transcendence in a Mennonite community. The pressure was to keep up with the fall’s major prestige items, such as “Atonement” (based on the acclaimed Ian McEwan novel) or Ang Lee’s Chinese-language potboiler “Lust, Caution” or the Coen brothers’ riveting film noir “No Country for Old Men,” their best film in ages....

ACL Function The anterior cruciate ligament provides the primary restraint to forward motion of the shin bone (tibia). The anatomy of the knee joint is critical to understanding this relationship. The femur (thigh bone) sits on top of the tibia (shin bone), and the knee joint allows movement at the junction of these bones. Without ligaments to stabilize the knee, the joint would be unstable and prone to dislocation. The ACL prevents the tibia from sliding too far forward....

On CNN’s State of the Union Sunday, host Jake Tapper specifically asked Fauci about DeSantis as well as merchandise being sold that carried the phrase ‘Don’t Fauci My Florida.’ “Just in the six weeks since the governor’s reelection campaign launched those products, more than 5,000 Floridians have died of coronavirus,” Tapper stated. “What do you make of the way some of these governors and politicians are attacking you?” Fauci said that he receives attacks because he’s “a visible person,” but explained that he’s “merely articulating the proper public health practices that are recommended strongly by an organization and that organization is the [Centers for Disease Control and Prevention....

My wife and I were a few months into a health streak—exercising, eating better, and prioritizing our well-being—when I woke up one morning to my wife looking at me and saying, “We’re going to the hospital.” I pushed a bit but ultimately acquiesced. My next two memories are of me walking down the steps toward the car and later waking up in the ICU. I only know what happened during those first moments at the hospital because of what my wife and healthcare providers told me....

Newer incarnations of the drug are more user-friendly but still present challenges in terms of messiness, staining, and the duration of treatment. Even beyond convenience, intensive therapies like anthralin have fallen to the wayside in favor of more bioactive topical drugs, including hydrocortisone cream, tazarotene, and topical vitamin D derivatives. Nevertheless, anthralin still has a place in treatment if other topical medications prove either ineffective or intolerable. Uses Anthralin, classified as an anthracene derivative, is typically used for the treatment of stable plaque psoriasis in adults....

Stop AAPI Hate, a national coalition that became the authority on gathering data on racially motivated attacks related to the coronavirus pandemic, recorded 9,081 incident reports up until this June. Since the coronavirus was first reported in China, many Asians and Pacific Islanders have faced mistreatment solely based on their race. “When you encourage hate, it’s not like a genie in a bottle where you can pull it out and push it back in whenever you want....

Defending Democracy Together (DDT), an advocacy organization that says it was created by conservatives to defend Republican and American values on its website, announced the project on Thursday. Upon its launch, Republican Voters Against Trump (RVAT) had nearly 100 video testimonials from Republicans and right-leaning Independents who said they will vote for Biden in November, and the project organizers said they aspire to collect at least 1,000 videos within the next two months....

This week, Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib blamed “white supremacy” for the Jersey City shootings that killed a detective and three citizens at a Jewish supermarket. The shooters were reportedly part of a black nationalist, anti-police religious sect. While the threat from the far right is real, so is the violent threat posed by the far left. Last January, Charles Landeros, 30, wearing a “Smash the patriarchy” t-shirt, went to his daughter’s middle school in Eugene, Oregon, to discuss a custody dispute....

Wide receiver Antonio Brown limped through much of the divisional round with a knee injury and had an MRI on Monday afternoon, according to ESPN. Results of the test have not yet been announced. Brown’s devastating bursts on short routes make him an important part of quarterback Tom Brady’s game plan. Opponents must account for him near the line of scrimmage while also protecting from Mike Evans and Chris Godwin sprinting past the secondary to haul in deep balls....

The plaintiff, 28-year-old Britney Taylor, alleges the 31-year-old Brown sexually assaulted her on three occasions in 2017 and 2018, with the third incident escalating to rape. The Patriots, who signed Brown to a one-year contract hours after the Raiders released him in the first week of September, acknowledged the lawsuit in a statement and noted the NFL had informed the team it was investigating the alleged incidents. New England eventually released Brown....

Before we get into the question of why Time Warner shareholders can’t seem to catch a good break and whether this deal can work, it’s disclosure time. AOL’s Time magazine is the primary competitor of my employer, NEWSWEEK. And I used to work for Money magazine, one of AOL’s properties. Back to the main event. And to the question of whether this deal will work out for the old Time Warner shareholders....

Paaka Edwards has moko kanohi—traditional, permanent markings that Māori, the indigenous people of New Zealand, sometimes adopt. Edwards had used savings of NZ$2000 ($1,270) to buy the iPhone 13 Pro Max, The New Zealand Herald reported. He told the news outlet that he had read up on the model before making the purchase, and it appeared the face markings would not be an issue. Apple’s face recognition technology works so that a user can unlock an iPhone and use other functions simply by showing their face....

Spatial Audio creates depth and room for the music to breathe and be arranged in potentially new ways. Initially, this technology is demonstrated by not just shifting between left and right but by the sound’s having the extra front and rear dimensions to surround you even better. To fully experience its benefits, press play on a Dolby Atmos song and then, while it’s going, head to the iPhone’s settings and, under music, turn off Dolby Atmos to go back to listening in stereo....
