No more. In this era of religious fervor, an Asia-wide resurgence of Buddhism is spawning activists and increasingly assertive political movements, some of which even act like fundamentalists of other faiths. True, many Buddhist groups, like Taiwan’s massive Tzu Chi movement, still practice nonviolence and antimaterialism; indeed, this meditative side is helping Buddhism make inroads among alienated urban professionals in India, China and elsewhere. But other organizations are now wading straight into the rough-and-tumble of everyday politics, suggesting last year’s monk-led protests in Burma weren’t an anomaly....

Those unsure of what ARMS is should know that it’s similar to standard fighting games in the sense that it makes use of a tried and true rock-paper-scissors system of punch beats grab, grab beats block, block beats punch. Outside of that, Nintendo’s latest software changes things up dramatically by making use of a third-person, over-the-shoulder camera in order to better deliver its killer right hook – long-distance punching via stretchable arms....

Brighton had taken a 2-0 lead in the 58th minute when Shane Duffy met a corner at the far post and flicked the ball into the net from a tight angle, just two minutes after Dale Stephens had scored from another corner to put the visitors on course for a fourth straight win over West Ham since earning promotion in 2017. But West Ham also needed just two minutes to stage a comeback, as Arnautovic first met a ball over the top from Mark Noble and slotted a shot between the legs of goalkeeper David Button in the 66th and then took advantage of Michail Antonio’s raid down the left to score the equalizer in the 58th....

The substitute’s inswinging cross from the left went over everyone in the box and ended up in the far corner of the net, denying Wolves what would have been the biggest win of their first season back in the top flight since 2012. They have already drawn with Manchester City at home and Manchester United away. Ivan Cavaleiro’s 13th-minute strike put Wolves ahead after capitalizing on a mistake by Granit Xhaka, leaving Arsenal facing its first loss in any competition since starting the season with back-to-back defeats against City and Chelsea in the Premier League in August....

The Gunners have found themselves on a slippery slope in recent years, with FA Cup triumphs papering over the cracks to have formed in English top-flight competition. They slipped out of the top four for the first time under Arsene Wenger in 2016-17 and have left themselves with work to do in order to rejoin that group in the current campaign, as they sit sixth. Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Henrikh Mkhitaryan were brought in during the recent winter transfer window to help try and turn the tide, but Merson fears the damage has already been done and that Arsenal have left themselves with too much catching up to do....

The three-part House of Hammer docuseries promises to not only cover claims made against Hammer by some of the women who’ve accused him of sexual assault, but the project will also touch on the alleged history of abuse within his family.

The separation seemed amicable at first, but by January 2021, the first tales of abuse hit the news when a woman with an anonymous Instagram account claimed she had recently been involved in a years-long affair with the Call Me By Your Name actor....

Breaking the deadlock would end nine years of haggling over a treaty that cuts U.S. and Soviet nuclear arsenals by about 30 percent. START looked like a done deal back in May 1990, when Bush and Gorbachev met in Washington. But the agreement went nowhere because of what a Kremlin official calls “a hundred tiny technical issues”. The two remaining issues are far from tiny. One was the issue of “downloading,” the question of how much to permit each side to achieve nuclear-warhead reductions by removing, say, three warheads from a missile capable of carrying 10, for a total of seven warheads in the treaty count....
