Homemade espresso tends to be more watery and flat than the kind found at cafes. The Brikka, from Bialetti, comes a step closer to professional brews. Similar to other aluminum coffeepots on the outside, it’s equipped with a pressostatic valve that unbridles the java only when it reaches optimum pressure. The result is a thick, foamy coffee to rival a good caffe ristretto. hishop.bialetti.it/uk With most moka pots, you need different sizes for different quantities....

Now London’s Victoria and Albert Museum is giving the movement a new spin. “Surreal Things: Surrealism and Design” (until July 22) explores the way the genre influenced theater, fashion, film, architecture and design. The exhibit showcases some 300 works—including Dali’s “Mae West Lips” couch, Meret Oppenheim’s “Table With Bird Legs” and Yves Tanguy’s blue and pink earrings—and demonstrates how they came to be regarded as the forebears of much contemporary fashion and design....

According to GHSA’s Pedestrian Traffic Fatalities by State report—which is published annually and based on preliminary data from State Highway Safety Offices in all 50 states and the District of Columbia—in the first six months of 2020, pedestrian fatalities per billion vehicle miles traveled increased by 20%. The report also found that: 2,957 pedestrians were killed in motor vehicle crashes from January through June 2020. That was close to the number for the same period in 2019....

Carolina began its season on a promising note, but with the win came injuries to tight end Greg Olsen and right tackle Daryl Williams, both key members of the offense. “You guys know how I feel about Greg — you can’t ever replace him,” Newton said. “His professionalism that he brings to the game, his overall outlook, his IQ, his understanding …” Olsen and Williams were essentially game-time decisions for Week 1, and they both suffered injuries to familiar body parts....

The musician, 41, took to Instagram to post the image, which showed her posing in the kitchen alongside Beyoncé, 39, and Kelly Rowland, 40, who cradled her four-month-old son, Noah. Captioning the image, Williams—who recently released her book Checking In, in which she documents her mental health journey—wrote: “Checking In Group Chat. Everybody’s in the ‘kitchen!’” Adding to the visuals, Illinois native Williams also posted a series of audio clips from her discussions with her fellow singers....

This article will explain how silver plans work, how they compare with other plans, and tips for deciding which metal level will best fit your needs and budget. When a silver plan pays roughly 70% of medical costs for a standard population, this means it has a 70% actuarial value, or AV. This doesn’t mean that you, personally, will get 70% of your healthcare costs paid by your silver plan....

If you feel a lump in your breast, go to the doctor immediately. A hard lump may be a tumor. Gynecomastia may occur in just one breast or both breasts at once. The size of the lump can vary and may not be the same in both breasts. Breast buds in puberty-aged boys are typically the size of a nickel or quarter. [3] X Research source It is possible that being overweight can also contribute to the development of true gynecomastia, since fatty tissue tends to boost the body’s production of estrogen....

My near-collision got me thinking about another important story I heard nothing about at this auto show: safety.Green technology might save you a buck and even help save the planet, when automakers actually get it on the road. (Like that ESPN correspondent’s segment, most of the green cars at the Detroit show are really just rehearsals.) But safety technology can save your life. Safety, though, lacks the buzz of an electric car like the gull-wing Dodge Zeo concept or the egg-shaped Chrysler ecoVoyager fuel-cell minivan (both are miles away from actually hitting the road)....

And what he’s hearing is helping, like what forward Drew Stafford yelled at him Saturday night during the Devils 3-2 win against the New York Rangers. “[Stafford] said, ‘I’m going, I’m going,’” Butcher said. The next thing he knew, he glanced over his right shoulder, the veteran forward streaking down the wall. Butcher, in one calm motion, pulled up just inside of the blue line, drawing all three Ranger penalty-killers toward him, before rotating his hips, and threading a pass onto the tape of a cutting Stafford for the eventual game-winning goal....

McLeod suffered the injury in a preaseason matchup against the New York Islanders on Sept. 25. McLeod was the Devils’ first-round pick in the 2016 NHL Draft, and spent last season playing for the Mississauga Steelheads in the Ontario Hockey League. In 2016-17, McCleod registered 73 points for the Steelheads. McCleod entered training camp as a considerable favorite to crack the Devils lineup. He is expected to miss four to six weeks....

New Jersey general manager Lou Lamoriello told reporters Friday there’s “not a chance” Clowe will play this season and added he doesn’t know about next season either. MORE: Must-see assist | Martin Brodeur in photos Clowe has had a history of concussions in recent years (reportedly four in the past two years). His latest incident occurred in November.

It’s an important step for the Laval, Que., native, who around this time last year was shown the door by the only NHL team he knew, the Maple Leafs. “Honestly, it’s been a pretty weird year for me. When [Leafs GM Kyle Dubas] told me I was getting back and then all of a sudden, I can’t find anything, anywhere to go. I finally get a PTO in Arizona [but] I didn’t get the chance I was hoping I would get,” Gauthier said....

Flynn pleaded guilty in late 2017 to lying to the FBI about conversations with Russian ambassador Sergey Kislyak in a case central to the investigation by special counsel Robert Mueller into claims Moscow interfered in the 2016 election. He has not been sentenced yet but has since decided to try to withdraw his guilty plea. In the handwritten notes dated January 24, 2017, provided to Flynn’s defense attorneys and released on Wednesday, one entry states: “What’s our goal?...

For Christmas this year, the former Bengals player got his daughter Leah an autographed jersey from Cavaliers star LeBron James.

Following a 9-yard touchdown from Gardner Minshew to make the score 34-27 — Smith’s second touchdown reception of the night — the second-year receiver made use of the NFL’s Salvation Army kettle. Instead of jumping in it or even playing whack-a-mole, Smith had a wonderful, awful idea straight out of the Grinch’s playbook: It’s not often that celebrations are Christmas-themed, so kudos to Smith and Co. for making the most of the opportunity to take a different approach to utilizing the Salvation Army kettle....

How did he go from signing with Appalachian State to winning four conference championships at one of college basketball’s bluest blue bloods? NCAA BRACKET BREAKDOWNS: East | South | Midwest | West “Just growing, maturing,” Graham says, “putting in all the work.” This college basketball season has been personally gratifying for Graham, a first-team SN All-American.

Perhaps free-agent wide receiver Dez Bryant feels a similar draw. Bryant, whom the Cowboys cut last month, appeared to hint at his desire to join the 49ers with a simple comment on his own Instagram post. The 29-year-old was asked the question, “Dez what team do you want to go to.” His answer: “49ers.” (Bryant apparently deleted his comment soon after it posted.) MORE NFL: Ranking all 32 QB rooms...

Sure, you have to beat roughly 7,000 lineups, but when you hit big there is simply no other way to maximize a $25 investment in one night of DFS. My only Slam victory was in NBA action, and the same lineup won me entry to the Playboy Championship and $750 in the $2 Shot tournament. Had I not entered the Slam, I would’ve needed to place in the top three at the Mansion just to match the $30,000 I won in the Slam....

The physicians, who planned to administer the shots for free, were turned away before they could give them, prompting the DHS press secretary’s Twitter account to later classify them as a “random group of political activists.” “Of course Border Patrol isn’t going to let a random group of radical political activists show up and start injecting people with drugs,” the DHS press secretary tweeted. The “drugs” they hoped to administer were more than 100 influenza vaccinations, one participant told Newsweek....
