Can 'Wonder Woman' end the summer movie slump?

Andre Iguodala out for Warriors with soreness in left knee
He never returned to the game. Five other Warriors connected on multiple 3-pointers in an 18-for-37 barrage that dwarfed the Spurs' 8-for-23 success from beyond the arc.

Mitchell Trubisky 'couldn't believe' Bears drafted him
But general manager Ryan Pace jumped at the opportunity to take Trubisky. What Trubisky and Grossman share in common is they were both drafted by the Bears organization.

Universal Considering 'Fast and Furious' Spin-off With Johnson, Statham and Theron
This film saw the resurrection of Owen Shaw, played by Luke Evans, and his brother Deckard Shaw, played by Jason Statham.

After the movie, I walked out of the theater smiling, but sometimes I was smiling about how awesome some of the action was and sometimes I was making fun of how ridiculous other parts were.

If you bought your ticket advance, however, take solace in knowing that you'll get your money's worth.

Americans dislike GOP's, Trump's plan on health care
Additionally, AHCA planned to leave approximately 20 million Americans uninsured as compared to Obamacare coverage by 2020. That huge mistake that the Trump American Health Care Act made by rushing it to Congress must not be repeated. That everyone is somewhat in the wrong highlights the potential need for a shift in paradigm with regards to health care debates. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) repeatedly mentioned it was simply callous and cavalier for Trump and Ryan to present such an emaciated plan ...
