As the preseason winds to a close, the Lakers and Mavs clash in one final tune-up ahead of their respective season-openers next week.
Luka Doncic seems likely to make his preseason debut for LA in its second-to-last preseason game. Doncic is beginning his second year — and first full season — with the Lakers following February’s blockbuster trade with the Mavs.
There’s a bit of added pressure on Doncic to carry the Lakers right away. LeBron James is expected to be sidelined for three to four weeks because of a sciatica injury, giving Doncic the clear reins to the offense.
Doncic faced his former squad twice last season, winning both games. He dropped 45 points in an epic return to Dallas in April.
Doncic isn’t the only name to follow in this contest. The Mavs are still building chemistry between Anthony Davis — the other centerpiece in the Doncic trade — and Cooper Flagg, the No. 1 overall pick in the draft. This is the final preseason game for Dallas, as its opener looms next Wednesday.

CHP urges schoolchildren to promptly receive seasonal influenza vaccination as severe paediatric influenza infection case was recorded over two consecutive days
****************************************************************************************** Following yesterday's (October 20) announcement of a case of severe paediatric influenza A infection, the Centre for Health Protection (CHP) of the Department of Health (DH) today (October 21) recorded another severe case.

What It’s Like to Watch An Internet-Based Ideology Break Containment
I first realized the extent of the internet’s takeover of U.S. politics while standing in the lobby of a drab hotel convention center, listening to an elderly gentleman rattle off a list of fringe conspiracy forums he frequented.
“Prison Planet,” he told me, and “Infowars.”
“Wow,” I said. In the conference room behind us, a man distributed papers watermarked with a custom edit of Pepe, a cartoon frog that achieved infamy as an unofficial mascot of the too-online, 4chan-dwelling alt-right of the 2010s.
I wasn’t at an alt-right conference. Nor was I at a meetup of tech-savvy trolls. I was at the 2018 Flat Earth International Conference in Aurora, Colorado. The hundreds of globe denialists who’d gathered included friendly retirees, mother-daughter duos,...
