Osaka, Japan CNN —Let’s be honest. Food is practically a religion in Osaka, which is now anticipating the global spotlight as it gears up to host Expo 2025. It is known as the kitchen of Japan, and, for foodies, any tour of its myriad culinary delights must start in Dotonbori. Like so many parts of Japan, Osaka is obsessed with baseball. The club began life in 1936 and briefly played as the Osaka Tigers, before reverting to Hanshin, the city 20 minutes west, where it plays at Koshien Stadium.

CNN —“How is this a job?” Ryan Reynolds recently asked on Instagram, in reference to his current publicity tour to promote his upcoming “Deadpool & Wolverine.” Our thoughts, exactly, Ry. Reynolds, who is about to incarnate Wade Wilson a.k.a. Deadpool on the silver screen for a fourth time in the sequel, recently visited both Shanghai, China and Seoul, South Korea with his costar, Hugh Jackman (otherwise known as Logan/Wolverine) and their director Shawn Levy. Jackman even reposted a Story from the Instagram user Avengergram, who wrote in a caption over a photo of toy figurines of the titular pair, “Seeing all the ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ press tour posts is like watching a romantic comedy.”Up next for the stellar superhero group is Berlin, Germany. “Deadpool & Wolverine” barrels into theaters on July 26.

☆ A buying opportunity in a consumer stock with a long-term bullish trend, according to the charts
▼ + stars: | 2024-07-05 | by ( David Keller | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +4 min

I'm always on the lookout for stocks with ideal technical set-ups, and my favorite one is a chart with a long-term uptrend and short-term pullback. I actually call this setup a "fat pitch" chart. So when a chart is in a primary uptrend, and then has a decent pullback to make a higher low, this fat pitch chart can often provide a fantastic "buy on the dips" opportunity. We can also see that the RSI is currently just above the 40 level, which tells us that the price momentum remains fairly bullish despite the recent price pullback. BEFORE MAKING ANY FINANCIAL DECISIONS, YOU SHOULD STRONGLY CONSIDER SEEKING ADVICE FROM YOUR OWN FINANCIAL OR INVESTMENT ADVISOR.

A mural showing Los Angeles Dodgers player Shohei Ohtani is painted on the side of the Miyako Hotel in Little Tokyo in downtown Los Angeles. “He’s just a phenomenal individual, right?” said Judy Clow, who brought her brother from Japan to a Japanese-language tour at Dodger Stadium. My gosh!”Shohei Ohtani warms up before a preseason game against the Los Angeles Angels at Dodger Stadium on March 24, 2024.

Women's soccer is bringing private equity off the sidelines. While other major U.S. sports leagues – Major League Soccer, the National Basketball Association, Major League Baseball and the National Hockey League – have allowed private equity investors to take passive, minority stakes, only the National Women's Soccer League has allowed these firms to take majority control of the economics. Sixth Street was the first to own a team in building out the San Francisco women's team, Bay FC, last year. The second-ever such deal closed a few weeks ago, as Carlyle partnered with men's team, the Seattle Sounders FC, to buy that city's counterpart in the NWSL, the Reign FC. Popov said NWSL attendance, up more than 40% this year, is evidence of the momentum in the sport.

It is time for the Nathan’s Famous Hot Dog Eating Contest in Coney Island. The contest has long been a holiday mainstay in New York, and must-see midday TV across the country. But this year’s event, which tests “competitive eaters” on how many hot dogs they can frantically scarf down in 10 minutes, promises to be unusually suspenseful. Joey Chestnut, the 16-time champion, was forced to part ways with the contest last month after he signed an endorsement deal with Impossible Foods, a rival to Nathan’s that makes vegan hot dogs. Chestnut go through a pile of hot dogs like a wood chipper.

But with tens of millions of Americans traveling abroad every year, the likelihood is that you’ll encounter us wherever you are in the world. So, here are my top 10 tips on how you can avoid the “stupid American” stereotype and become a “Smart American” abroad. However, when I’m traveling abroad, I’m always careful to keep it to, what feels like, a quiet whisper. As a result, many Americans often have little to no knowledge of what’s going on around the world, thus unfairly adding to the “stupid American” stereotype. Beat them to the punch with humorMy biggest secret weapon against being called a “stupid American” is calling myself a “stupid American” first and laughing about it.

Just inside the door to the studio of the Brazilian artists Osgemeos is a self-portrait. Spray painted onto the concrete wall of the old metal workshop’s entryway, the image shows the identical twins Otávio and Gustavo Pandolfo, 50, standing next to each other, hands at their sides and looking forward. They’re wearing colorful printed clothing, bags slung over their shoulders and baseball caps propped on their heads. Here, preparations are underway for “Endless Story,” their first museum survey of work in the United States. One of the brothers’ imposing sculptures, wrapped in black plastic so it can be shipped for the exhibition, hangs from chains on the sweeping ceiling and another is tucked away in a corner, a smidgen of what looks like a subway car visible.
