☆ Terry Killens: 24 years ago, he played in a Super Bowl as a player. Now, he’s making history as an official

Killens’ first appearance in a Super Bowl had ended in unimaginable disappointment. The linebacker, who was in the league for seven seasons, never competed in another Super Bowl during his playing days. Killens is part of the crew officials ruling over the upcoming Super Bowl – which will be played in Las Vegas’ Allegiant Stadium on February 11 between the Kansas City Chiefs and the San Francisco 49ers – making him first person to both play in and referee a Super Bowl. Dyson is tackled by St. Louis linebacker Mike Jones just short of the goal line on the last play of Super Bowl XXXIV. When we wear the stripes, we are guardians of the game,” Killens explains.

“(Today) is the beginning of a new time cycle,” Modi said at the new temple honoring Hindu deity Lord Ram. “After centuries of waiting, our Ram has arrived.”Modi’s vision of a “divine India” is a far cry from the ideas of the modern country’s founding fathers. “India becomes a de facto Hindu nation, where the task of building national Hindu religious symbols falls to the state. And he reiterated his party’s desire to build the Ram Temple on the contested holy site. Hindu groups have for decades claimed the Mughals destroyed Hindu temples, building mosques and other monuments in their place.

☆ Protester turned protector, Ben-Gvir officiates uneasily at Jerusalem Pride

JERUSALEM, June 1 (Reuters) - Accustomed to a hostile response from some religious residents of Jerusalem, participants in the city's Gay Pride parade on Thursday found themselves in the unwelcome situation of looking to a far-rightist former adversary for their protection. Catapulted into national politics last year at the head of the ultranationalist Jewish Power party, Ben-Gvir has disavowed his past remarks. Ahead of the event, police said three people were detained over suspected threats against the marchers. The Islamist militant group Hamas also called on Palestinians, who contest Israeli control of Jerusalem, to "confront" the Gay Pride parade. Describing Jerusalem as a "mosaic" of differing views, Ben-Gvir said he would also safeguard the right to counter-protest.

CNN —Wedding bells are ringing for celebrity hair stylist Chris Appleton and “White Lotus” actor Lukas Gage. The couple posted on their respective Instagram pages on Wednesday that they recently wed in Las Vegas, and Kim Kardashian and country star Shania Twain played a pivotal role in their nuptials. “We did it,” Appleton captioned his Instagram post that included a diamond ring emoji and a special shoutout to Kardashian and Twain. The photos showcased Gage and Appleton donning black leather pants and black furry jackets with Kardashian against the iconic white wrought iron gates of Las Vegas’s Little White Chapel. Gage and Appleton publicly confirmed their romance last month and made their red carpet debut during the Vanity Fair and TikTok’s Young Hollywood party.
☆ Stéphanie Frappart to make history as the first woman to referee a men’s World Cup match

But Stéphanie Frappart’s traditional anonymity has been broken for a different reason – she will make history on Thursday as the first woman to referee a men’s World Cup match. FIFA announced their appointment back in May, when Frappart found out that she was going to the 2022 Qatar World Cup. “It’s a surprise, you cannot believe it and after two or three minutes, you realize that you are going to the World Cup. Mukasanga and Yamashita have also been the fourth official at two and four games of this World Cup respectively. I don’t know how life is there but I didn’t make the decision to go there or to organize the World Cup,” Frappart says.
