Yankees vs Mariners Over 7.5 (-105) Odds available at DraftKings Sportsbook at time of publishing. The Yankees and Mariners close out their 3-game series in Seattle with New York going for the sweep. Seattle has been outscored in the first two games 20-6. The Yankees’ bats seem unstoppable right now. They have actually scored 10 runs in 3 straight games. It’s natural to expect some regression here. Seattle is starting George Kirby, whose numbers are respecta

Wise n' Shine: NBA picks, NHL predictions and MLB best bets for Monday, May 29

Good morning, Pickswise Nation, and welcome to another wonderful week of sports. By tonight we will know the NBA Finals matchup and the Stanley Cup Finals lineup could also be set. As well as the playoff action in the NBA and NHL, we have another solid MLB slate and top tennis action, so let’s get straight to making your next bet better. About Last Night Hitters dominate on Sunday There were some high-scoring battles in Sunday’s MLB slate, with the league-leading Rays beating the Dodgers 11-10 and the Rockies overcoming the Mets by the same score. The Yankees beat the Padres 10-7 and the Braves starred in the Sunday Night Baseball matchup, beating the Phillies 11-4. EPL parlay cashes at +660 odds There was no NBA or NHL action yesterday but there was no shortage of drama as Josef Newgarden won a wild Indianapolis 500 race and the final day of the EPL season saw Leicester and Leeds United relegated. Leicester’s win over West Ham was not enough to keep the 2015-16 champions in the P

James Milner explains why he is leaving Liverpool

James Milner has confirmed Liverpool's failure to offer him a new contract is the reason for his imminent departure, against the wishes of Jurgen Klopp. The 37-year-old is leaving the Reds after eight hugely successful seasons at Anfield, which have yielded Premier League , Champions League, FA Cup and Carabao Cup wins, and a Europa League runners-up medal. 90min reported at the beginning of May that Europa League-bound Brighton are pushing to complete a deal for Milner, with some experience at the highest level of continental com Pet ition designed to help Roberto De Zerbi's side take the next step in their exciting rise. But Milner's exit from Merseyside is not something Klopp was aligned with. The German is also saying goodbye to Roberto Firmino, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Naby Keita at the end of their contracts, leaving Liverpool exceptionally light in midfield. Alexis Mac Allister is expected to be a quick incoming, arriving in a big-money move, but Milner has conf

How you can stop Google deleting your Gmail account as mass closure deadline looms

Millions of Australians will have their Gmail accounts deleted as the tech giant tightens makes huge changes to its security system - and the deadline is approaching. Accounts which have not been active for two years will be deleted, Google have announced. WATCH THE VIDEO ABOVE: Google AI is taking the next step. Watch the latest News on Channel 7 or stream for free on 7plus >> “This is because forgotten or unattended accounts often rely on old or re-used passwords that may have been compromised, haven’t had two-factor authentication set up, and receive fewer security checks,” Google said last week. No account s will be deleted before the looming deadline of December 2023, when Google will launch its “phased approach” to erasing account s. The company is only focusing on deleting inactive accounts, and have released a handy step-by-step guide to ensuring your account is safe.

G7 officials to hold first meeting on AI regulation next week

TOKYO: Group of Seven (G7) nation officials will meet next week to consider problems posed by generative artificial intelligence (AI) tools like ChatGPT, Japan said on Friday. Leaders of the G7, which includes the United States, European Union and Japan, last week agreed to create an intergovernmental forum called the "Hiroshima AI process" to debate issues around fast-growing AI tools. G7 government officials will hold the first working-level AI meeting on May 30 and consider issues such as intellectual property protection, disinformation and how the Technology should be governed, Japan's communications minister, Takeaki Matsumoto, said. The meeting comes as tech regulators worldwide gauge the impact of popular AI services like ChatGPT by Microsoft-backed OpenAI. The EU is coming closer to enact the world's first major legislation on AI, inspiring other governments to consider what rules should be applied to AI tools. Japan, as this year's chair of G

The family of Brianna Grier, the woman who died six days after falling out of a moving police vehicle, announced a lawsuit against officers involved in the incident. Family members of Brianna Grier, the Georgia woman who died last year after falling out of a moving police vehicle, said they are filing a lawsuit against the officers involved in the incident. The complaint, which was obtained by ABC News, names Lt. Marlin Primus, Deputy Timothy Legette and Hancock County Sheriff Tomlyn Primus as defendants. The lawsuit claims that deputies "unlawfully and willfully seized and restrained the decedent, falsely arrested the decedent, unnecessarily handcuffed the decedent, picked her up and dropped her multiple times, ignored her cries for help and deprived her of medical assistance, caused injury to her head and brain and ultimately caused her death." Mary Grier, Brianna Grier's mother, spoke out at a press conference on Wednesday, saying the officers were aware of Grier's

Hong Kong’s Cathay Pacific sacks crew members accused of discriminating against non-English speakers

Hong Kong’s Cathay Pacific Airways has dismissed three cabin crew members after a passenger accused them of discriminating against non-English speakers, in a case that drew criticism from Chinese state media HONG KONG -- Hong Kong's Cathay Pacific Airways has dismissed three cabin crew members after a passenger accused them of discriminating against non-English speakers, in a case that drew criticism from Chinese state media. Airline CEO Ronald Lam expressed his apologies Tuesday to the passenger and the community over the incident, which occurred on a flight from Chengdu in southwest China to Hong Kong on Sunday. He reiterated his company's “zero tolerance” of any serious breach of its policies and code of conduct. “There is no compromise for such violations,” he said in a statement. The sacking came after the passenger complained in an online post that some crew members were disrespectful to passengers who did not speak English or Cantonese, the language widely spoken in Ho

ATP Geneva Open preview, predictions and best bets | Pickswise

'They’re opposed to government. But now they are the government.' One county's hard-right shift

Conservative groups that have targeted and won majorities on local boards and commissions across the United States over the past couple years are now pressing agendas that include election distrust, skepticism of government and a desire to have religio... GALLATIN, Tenn. -- Shortly after being sworn in last fall, the new majority of the Sumner County Commission in Tennessee acted to update one of its official documents. The new version said county operations would not only be orderly and efficient, but “most importantly reflective of the Judeo-Christian values inherent in the nation’s founding.” It was an important moment for the 14 commissioners who had campaigned under the banner of the Sumner County Constitutional Republicans. The group had waged a political war on fellow Republicans they viewed as insufficiently conservative in this fast-growing region north of Nashville during a bitter primary a few months before. Since taking control, that majority has halted plans for a new buil

Why Bautista's current dominance will be giving WSBK headaches

Image
In front of 32,000 adoring Spanish fans, Bautista lived up to pre-weekend predictions of being the favourite, securing all three wins in effortless fashion. It means he’s now won 11 of the 12 races so far held in 2023, and has given him a Health y 69-point championship lead. Bautista is always keen to explain that success is never guaranteed but the more time that passes, the harder it becomes to take his pronouncements seriously, especially considering the way he is able to play with his opponents aboard his Panigale V4 R. It’s never good for the Health of any series when one driver or rider wins all the time, and WSBK is no exception. If Bautista continues his dominant form, it’s conceivable he could wrap up a second title by WSBK’s return to Spanish soil at Aragon in September. This is bad news for series promoter Dorna amid signs that fan interest is dwindling. True, the championship survived a six-year run of dominance by Kawasaki man Jonathan Rea, but even then compell
