'Oppenheimer' unleashes Christopher Nolan on the 'father' of the atomic bomb
"Oppenheimer" seeks to match the mythological nature of its central theme -- an "American Prometheus," punished for bringing humankind the seeds of its potential destruction -- with a movie of equal heft, scale and (most of all) length. Writer-director Christopher Nolan's epic film essentially consists of three chapters, with the middle, Atlas-like, holding up the weaker, drawn-out beginning and end.

New Zealand’s historic moment gives Women’s World Cup the spark it needed
“We’ve been fighting for this for so long,” Ali Riley said, smiling through the tears. The New Zealand captain had waited more than most, winless at her four previous World Cups, part of a run that stretched back even further than that. Without a victory in 15 attempts at the tournament, New Zealand entered their own World Cup with unwanted history hanging over them. Facing Norway in their opening match, that winless run was expected to continue. How Hannah Wilkinson’s goal changed that. In a stunning upset, New Zealand altered the narrative, providing the World Cup with its first shock that will ripple not just in Group A but throughout the tournament. With a victory in their most difficult game of the group stages, New Zealand can now set their sights higher and target a place in the knockouts. They will have momentum on their side when they face Switzerland and the Philippines. Such moments can change expectations, as well as perceptions. It had been noted before kick-off that while pre-tournament excitement and buzz was palpable in Australia, particularly in Sydney ahead of the Matildas’ opening game against Ireland, in New Zealand it was far more low-key. Compared to the neighbours, New Zealand hadn’t generated the same interest in terms of tickets sold across the country. A reason for that is because Australia can win the World Cup. As hosts, they are aware of the opportunity they have to change society, as shown by England’s historic win at the Euros last summer, and are inspired by the chance to provide the country its biggest sporting moment since Cathy Freeman and the 2000 Olympics. Having an international star like Sam Kerr creates hope that such an achievement can be possible. New Zealand aren’t there yet - but they will now believe they can make that change happen, as well. “We had a clear goal that we wanted to inspire young girls, young people in this country and around the world and I think we did that tonight,” the 35-year-old Riley said. A moment such as Wilkinson’s goal, which came after a fine breakaway and cross from the forward Jacqui Hand, can be the spark, and not just for them. There are eight teams who will be making their World Cup debuts over the next week, and with the same fundamentals of organisation and commitment that New Zealand showed in restraining Norway, they too will hope to close the gap to the established nations. New Zealand had the advantage of being a host country, even if preparations for their opening match would have been disrupted by the shocking news of a mass shooting in Auckland on the morning of the tournament. But in front of a sold-out crowd of over 42,000 at Eden Park, New Zealand lived up to the role of underdog hosts superbly. For a team who had gone 10 games without a win until beating Vietnam before the World Cup, they were motivated by the occasion and upset the odds. Norway had the star quality - in Ada Hegerberg, Caroline Graham Hansen, Guro Reiten and Frida Maanum - but New Zealand believed in the collective. Riley led the way as she marked Graham Hansen out of the game - there was only one moment midway through the first half where the Barcelona star found the space to burst away, but the defender tracked it, shutting down the cross. When Norway had other half-chances, New Zealand found the blocks they needed. It’s an upset that asks questions of Norway, of course, after their shambolic group-stage exit at the Euros last summer. Hege Riise was brought in to repair the damage, but Norway were still far too open and unorganised in defence, while lacking cohesion in attack. “There have been a lot of doubters because of the results we had, but we believed,” Riley said. Now others at the World Cup will feel that too.

Baseball fans left stunned by mysterious scoreboard message to 'troll cave Becky'
Baseball fans were left open-mouthed as a scoreboard operator displayed a harsh breakup message for a woman named “Becky” on the big screen. The display at the Colorado Rockies ballpark was meant to show pre-game notes before the match – but instead a searing message for the operator’s presumably now former partner. “Using a stethoscope to listen to the heart, cardiologists can detect narrow valves, valve leakage, and/or abnormal rhythm,” the screen read. Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter It added: “Don't bother asking him to check YOUR heart though, Becky. “That crushed Titanic sub has more life inside it than that collapsed troll cave you call a chest cavity.” Social media was immediately ablaze with speculation as to who Becky could be. Suzie Hunter, a Rockies reporter, said: “Whoever runs the scoreboard at Coors Field is NOT OKAY." Fox Sports MLB analyst and podcast host Ben Verlander said: “Becky. We need to talk”. “This is one hell of a way to get fired,” wrote CBS Sports baseball editor Nick Stellini. In reality, there may not even be a Becky. The Rockies have been known to run a similar message on the board before. One Twitter user posted an image of the scoreboard referencing Becky on another occasion. “Most Coloradans experience ‘Sweater Weather’ up to six months of the year, starting in early September. “Except my ex-girlfriend, who probably needs a cardigan year-round because of her ice cube of a heart. Seriously, Becky... your insides are so frozen, at this point you should just change your name to Elsa.” Meanwhile, Baseball Twitter account Eephus Tosser posted four other instances of more-than-suspect “game notes”. “Moving at a normal pace, it would take 125 hours to walk 500 miles (and another 125 hours to walk 500 more). Baby, I love you, but I'll just go ahead and hop that Southwest flight to Calgary. XXOOXO,” read one message referencing the famous Proclaimers song. Another one said: “Humans spend about half their waking hours thinking about something other than what they're actually doing in the present. Some methods to pull yourself back into the here & now: -Breathe -Meditate -Do something physical - Just go ahead and check the hockey score, then get back to your Elvis Shake.” Have your say in our news democracy.
