Still, though, I wanted to celebrate with friends and family. My family's trip to Namibia in 2019, booked with Namibia Tours and Safaris, cost $5,000, excluding flights. We found our restaurant tucked down a back street behind the Musée du Louvre, basking in the luminous evening light.

Snoop Dogg, NBC’s New Voice of the People
  + stars: | 2024-07-26 | by ( Emmanuel Morgan | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: 1 min
Once Snoop Dogg had waded through electrical cords on the floor and ambled his lanky frame around the disorderly equipment in a partially constructed television studio in Paris, he was able to peer out over a balcony overlooking the Eiffel Tower and survey the city he hopes to conquer during the Olympics. “This is my home,” he said triumphantly to himself. Below, a handful of people flashed their phones. The man who NBCUniversal hopes will become the breakout star of the Paris Games was right where he wanted to be. The Olympics are always about the athletes, and as usual the focus this year will be on the brightest ones: Simone Biles, Katie Ledecky, Noah Lyles, Novak Djokovic, LeBron James.

Ms. Daniels, who may testify, says that she and Mr. Trump had a sexual encounter in 2006, a claim the former president denies. Mr. Trump has also denied the 34 felony charges, calling them orchestrated by Democrats; if convicted, the former president could face probation or up to four years in prison. Pool photo by Mark PetersonMr. Blanche also attacked Mr. Cohen, a former lawyer and fixer for Mr. Trump. He called the heart of the prosecution case just “34 pieces of paper” that don’t involve Mr. Trump. During his own side’s opening statement, Mr. Trump sat largely motionless and expressionless watching his lawyer Mr. Blanche.

At 8 a.m. on Tuesday, a basset hound ambled through Prospect Park in Brooklyn in an extra-long turtleneck sweater. The dog’s ears swept the ground, which was covered in snow — real, fluffy, not-yet-yellow snow — for the first time in nearly two years. The hound was far from the only New Yorker strategically bundled against the cold. By early afternoon, what little snow remained clung to trash bags, and street corners were covered in gray slush. Finally, it looked like winter in New York.

The nagging feeling which keeps travelers tethered to their devices has been coined the fear of switching off, or FOSO. It's loosely similar to the fear of missing out (FOMO), commonly denoted as the worries of not being included in exciting experiences or activities that others are a part of. FOSO can be seen as an extension of FOMO, said Handcock. "The fear of disconnecting from devices partially stems from a fear of missing out on work and home updates," he elaborated. Gideon Mendel | Corbis Historical | Getty ImagesAccording to the survey by Priority Pass, FOSO is more prevalent among younger travelers.

At 86, his gnarled hands grasping a walking stick as he ambled around his small patch of land facing Mount Kenya, Joseph Macharia Mwangi recalled with bitterness the years that he had spent fighting the British colonial government in Kenya. Seven decades ago, he had camped with Mau Mau rebels on that mountain and in the forests, braving frigid rain, lions and elephants. And when the colonial forces eventually captured him, he said he was tortured and sentenced to two years of hard labor. “The British forces were really hard on us. It is his first state visit to any member of the Commonwealth group of nations since he became king last year, and the first to an African country.

The subway rumbled toward its final stop north of Seoul. Along the way, hordes disembarked, with the determined, brisk gait of those with somewhere to be. Far from the city center, the thicket of high-rise buildings grew sparser, and the afternoon sun crept deeper into the train cars, riding on an elevated track at that point. By the end of the line, many who remained on board were noticeably older — nodding off, gazing out the window, stretching their shoulders. He ambled about a hundred yards beyond the station, rested briefly in the shade — and then got right back on the train heading south.

MILAN—A sculpture of a giant pencil loomed over a recent menswear collection that Giorgio Armani sent down the runway. The Italian designer was on the cusp of his 89th birthday, and after the show he ambled over to the pencil, which was emblazoned with his name, and wrapped his arm around it.

A three-legged black bear wandered onto the patio of a house in Florida. He trudged by the pool. He ambled up to a fish tank and gnawed on a container of guppy food. Then he went for the refrigerator, grabbed two cans of White Claw hard seltzer and tossed away a third. It was a typical day in the neighborhood of Magnolia Plantation — a subdivision of about 500 houses in Lake Mary, just north of Orlando — where the three-legged bear makes himself at home so often that residents have given him a name befitting a creature with just a trio of limbs: Tripod.

My Impossible Mission to Find Tom Cruise
  + stars: | 2023-07-17 | by ( Caity Weaver | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +3 min
These were Keston Park’s problems — not mine and probably not Tom Cruise’s. Tom Cruise, as he and I both now knew, was most likely secretly living at another estate I had turned up in my research — one that was even closer to the airport. Tom Cruise would be crazy not to live here, I thought as I stroked the soft, sun-warmed mane of a little white donkey. Except, upon my arrival at the end of an idyllic woodland stroll, I discovered that Cruise did not live there either. I righted the gnome and ambled on, in search of another public footpath that would, I hoped, lead me to where Cruise actually lived.

Why Was This Patient Turning So Yellow?
  + stars: | 2023-05-16 | by ( Lisa Sanders | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +4 min
The color came from a buildup of something known as bilirubin, a breakdown product of red blood cells. Normally there is a constant low level of this dark-colored waste created and disposed of as red blood cells are born and die. The whites of a patient’s eyes might be a little yellow — it’s where jaundice is most easily seen — but this man was visibly yellow everywhere. Usually you see that only with a severe iron deficiency or with some anomaly in the shape of the red blood cells. Red blood cells with any other shape are destroyed at a much higher rate.
I HAVE LONG been of the mind that the harder a place is to reach, the better it must be. That bit of folk wisdom hasn’t always worked to my advantage, but a trip to the west coast of Scotland left me more convinced than ever. The odyssey began at the former fishing village of Badachro, a 70-mile drive west from the city of Inverness. Those driving the scenic North Coast 500 route detour here for elevated pub grub at the Badachro Inn, with its views of Loch Gairloch. He issues each visitor a passport; mine was number 14,933.

AL KHOR, Qatar—Across most of the pitch in its World Cup quarterfinal against France, England could do pretty much what it wanted. The Three Lions built attacks from the back, ambled forward and covered long stretches of the field before encountering a single blue jersey. The Three Lions dominated possession, completed over 100 more passes than their opponents, and were completely unopposed for nearly half of their buildup play. And England still lost.

Emanuel, now the US's ambassador to Japan, didn't refute that the exchange took place but told Insider he didn't remember it.
