The unified featherweight champion earned a 10-round unanimous decision over Miriam Gutierrez, which kept her in line to fight undefeated, undisputed lightweight champion Katie Taylor (20-0, six KOs) in New York in 2022. Serrano (42-1-1 30 KOs) is eager to step up in class — not to mention income bracket. “It’s the megafight for women’s boxing,” Serrano said after her victory on the undercard of the Jake Paul-Tyron Woodley rematch in Tampa, Fla....

Officials from the United States Commission on International Religious Freedom (USCIRF), a federal group established by Congress, said in a statement today it is “unacceptable” for the nation to import any products that are suspected of having been made with the use of exploitative practices. The USCIRF was reacting to a report about alleged abuses in China released earlier this month by the Australian Strategic Policy Institute (ASPI) think tank....

Here’s how it works. If the monitor senses something amiss, such as an accumulation of dust, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), carbon monoxide, or smoke, your Alexa-enabled devices will let you know. These announcements will be distributed via any Echo speakers you have throughout your home and your smartphone’s Alexa app. The company says a quick and direct announcement from Alexa will allow users to make necessary changes to eliminate the issue, such as opening windows, turning on fans, or alerting authorities in the case of carbon monoxide....

As premium controllers for Microsoft’s Xbox consoles, the Xbox Elite Series controllers are known for customizability and enhanced features. Immediately noticeable is the addition of a wrap-around rubberized grip that adds a nice texture while allowing for a firm grip, along with uncolored face buttons that add to the sleek, stealthy look. Beyond the cosmetic differences, the controller is remarkably feature-rich thanks to its accessory options. The Xbox Elite Series controllers give gamers an advantage beyond comfort and ergonomics thanks to some of its features....

Here’s what’s new: Faster quad-core processorUpgraded front camera (now 720p)MicroSD storage up to 400GBHands-free Alexa You will also be able to buy it from Argos, Currys PC World, John Lewis, very.co.uk and littlewoods.com. It costs £79.99 / US$79.99, the same as the current model, but if you want 32GB of internal storage rather than 16GB, you’ll pay £99....

It has the same 6in screen with the same 800×600 resolution, equating to 167 pixels per inch. That’s low by today’s standards but on a 16-level greyscale E-Ink screen, it really doesn’t need to be much higher. Sure, characters are sharper on the 212ppi Paperwhite (and even crisper on the brand-new 300ppi Voyage) but it isn’t going to prevent you enjoying a good novel. What’s changed is an even faster processor which speeds up page turns....

An updated Paperwhite has finally arrived, but it looks like being worth the wait. A slew of upgrades include many of the most-requested features, all without a significant price rise. You will pay more for the brand-new Signature Edition, which adds a couple of extra features to bridge the gap between the Paperwhite and premium Oasis lines. There’s also a new Kids Edition for younger readers. Pre-orders for all three are live now, with the standard and Kids models going on sale on 27 September....

For the Ochses and the Sulzbergers, as this exhaustive account makes plain, the Times is far more than a family business. It’s a family religion–which may explain why it’s lasted so long and done so well. When Adolph Ochs bought the paper in 1896, it was distinguished for its honesty and seriousness, but it was also on its deathbed. He built up the financial news, added a Saturday “Review of Books and Art” and a substantive Sunday magazine, and was rewarded with a lifesaving infusion of new readers and advertisers....

Rodriguez, who will be 34 next season, was selected to the All-Star the past two seasons, compiling a 2.66 ERA and 82 saves over that time.

The amount of pop culture references in the MCU films vary from movie to movie. Captain America: The First Avenger contains very few pop culture references from the 1940s, while the Guardians of the Galaxy films routinely reference the 1980s thanks to Peter Quill. These references serve as a lighthearted way to ground these larger than life superheroes, and help make them feel more like everyday people. Although these references mostly focus on the worlds of film and television, video games have gotten a few shout-outs across the MCU’s 11-year history....

The major streaming services are trying to get you to use that time on their sites by offering some of their biggest shows on November 24, 25 and 26. Some of the highlights include Disney+’s latest Marvel show Hawkeye, which sees Jeremy Renner return to the MCU. Also streaming in time for a Thanksgiving binge is another season of Selling Sunset, Kevin Hart show True Story, plus anther season of the hilarious Saved By the Bell reboot....

With his Beaver Cleaver face and thrift-shop wardrobe, Oldham, even at 33, comes across as the slightly goofy pal you’d bring home to dinner, not the guy you’d vote most likely to succeed. But this aw-shucks stuff obscures a sophistication and determination that, in the last seven years, has propelled Oldham and his high-priced ready-to-wear to the front of the fashion pack, embraced by the seen-it-all establishment and the hip young things who have more moxie than money....

Allardyce, 63, stepped in to rescue struggling Crystal Palace from relegation midway through last season but resigned before the start of the current campaign. He will replace Dutchman Ronald Koeman at Everton. Everton sacked Koeman last month after a poor start to the season and placed their under-23 coach David Unsworth in temporary charge, but results have not improved and the club are currently one place above the relegation zone....

Sony is certainly no stranger to offering a refreshed, redesigned version of one of their consoles. Following on from the rounded edges of the PSOne and the wafer-thin re-release of the PlayStation 2, the PlayStation 3 received two major hardware revisions; the PS3 Slim that was announced in 2009, and the ‘Super Slim’ model that released three years later. All signs would point to the PlayStation 4 getting the same treatment at some point down the line, but it does seem a little too early for such plans to be unveiled now....

The exact job title was not shown. “You will be responsible for the husbandry and care of a large variety of species including lemurs, antelope, camels, and more,” the job description stated. “Duties also include habitat maintenance and repair, mowing, weed eating, etc.” It continued and stated that the employee would be also responsible for conducting safari tours and answering phone calls to help guests make reservations.

A police report seen by Newsweek noted that officers with the University Heights Police Department were called to a Citizens Bank location due to a robbery in progress on Friday, February 25. Although FBI statistics show that robberies, in general, have declined since the start of the pandemic, Capital Counselor says most in-person bank robberies do happen on Fridays, and cyberattacks on banks have spiked by 238 percent. “The suspect passed a note to the teller indicating he had a gun and demanded money,” the report stated....

There was no room for Higuain in Allegri’s XI, the Juve head coach preferring Mario Mandzukic up front in Saturday’s 4-0 Serie A Derby della Mole victory over Torino. Juventus 13/2 to beat Olympiakos 1-0 Higuain has only scored twice in eight matches in all competitions this season, his most recent goal coming against Chievo on September 9, and Allegro explained the reasoning behind the decision post-match. “Higuain was on the bench because there are many games and I preferred to give him a rest,” Allegri told Mediaset Premium....
