Wenger’s near 22-year stay at Arsenal will conclude at the end of the season and he watched a young XI lose 2-1 thanks to a late Marouane Fellaini header on Sunday in the Premier League. Legendary United boss Ferguson was on hand to greet his old rival by the dugouts before the game, with Jose Mourinho also embracing Wenger warmly ahead of kick-off. And Wenger said he had not expected such a positive response from the United fans ahead of the match, although some home supporters later mocked him by singing “Arsene Wenger, we want you to stay” during the game....

Far-right extremism is not new to any of America’s allies, and certainly not the European nations ravaged by German fascists and their allies in Second World War and subsequently periodic neo-Nazi and white supremacist revivals. But American partners abroad have been watching the rise of America’s modern extremist “alt-right” tide with concern, aware that the global reach of U.S. media and culture risks the export of a very American far-right extremism to their countries, infusing existing far-right groups with a new ideology honed by decades of neoliberal excess and political malaise....

The guidelines are the first evidence-based recommendations for exercise and weight management during cancer treatments and suggest that physical activity may help with some of the side effects of treatment. “There are a lot of guidelines in terms of nutrition, exercise, and weight management in preventing cancer,” lead study author Jennifer Ligibel, MD, a medical oncologist at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, told Verywell. “But there’s growing evidence that making changes during treatment might have an effect on how people will do during therapy....

Asia’s dueling financial hubs invest a lot of capital—real and emotional—in what’s often cast as a zero-sum contest for the affection of foreign companies. Yet both cities have done so well wooing them of late that the major threat facing each isn’t the other, but bottlenecks in the expatriate infrastructure common to both. High-end housing costs are pushing past records set before the 1997-98 Asian financial crisis, prompting Singapore’s founding father, Lee Kuan Yew, to lament, “We must check this spike in rents or we will lose our competitiveness....

Tokyo is among Washington’s closest foreign allies and has been since the U.S. defeated Japan in World War II, later forging a security treaty that formed a cornerstone of deterrence against advances from the Soviet Union and China—two communist powers who ultimately broke with one another and became entangled in their own feud. Today, however, the dynamics of the old, largely Eurocentric Cold War have shifted toward Asia, along with the balance of global economic power....
