Anne Hathaway was almost crashed into by New York Knicks player OG Anunoby at Wednesday's NBA matchup at Madison Square Garden, but rather than being near-death experience for the movie star, she called it a "bucket-list moment." The Oscar-winning actor and her son Jack were attending the New York Knicks vs. Chicago Bulls game when the British player charged in their direction while chasing the ball, colliding with a courtside barrier right next to the pair. To Hathaway's credit, she barely flinched, and was even photographed with an outstretched hand, seemingly attempting to catch the ball herself. Even though some snacks were spilled and her son's jaw dropped in shock, she ended her video smiling and thanking Anunoby. The Knick's lost out by a point, with the final score of the night being 124-123 for the Bulls.

☆ Analysis: A Trump bitcoin promise is what crypto fans once fought against. They love it anyway

New York CNN —The crypto industry, an institution founded on the principle of getting the government’s greedy hands off the people’s currency, is booming. They may have finally convinced the government to get its hands on bitcoin. And second: He would create a national bitcoin reserve by preventing the government from selling the assets it has seized in criminal cases. I asked several experts this week about that apparent inconsistency in the crypto ethos. “This, by itself, represents an enormous symbolic win for the crypto industry that two years ago was being spoken of as dead in the water.”

☆ The coming reign of the only child

American women are having kids later in life, leaving less time to bear multiple children. American women in general are having children later, but the delay is most pronounced among the most educated. Even religious conservatives, who are biblically motivated to be fruitful and multiply, are starting families later and more often having only one child. So what will the coming reign of the only child mean for America? Just as having children is no longer seen as a required stage of adulthood, having siblings will no longer be a de facto part of childhood.

The White House eventually tasks Kelly with filming a fake moon landing in case the real one fails. Apollo 11 spaceship launch director Cole Davis (Tatum) opposes Kelly's plan, believing it will discredit NASA's efforts. This storyline leans into the conspiracy theory that NASA faked the US moon landing in 1969. But there's no evidence to suggests NASA or any network tried to fake the moon landing.
