IAN HERBERT: A connection back to home forged an interest for me in Billy Meredith, a footballer whose name is now unknown to most yet who was a force of nature in his day, rising from a North Wales pit village to become a household name at the time of the sport's first commercial explosion. Meredith mined the same Black Park Colliery, at Chirk, where my grandfather later worked, and it was with a firebrand's belief in the rights of working people - be they footballers or colliery workers - that he became football's first superstar; the match-winner for both Manchester United and Manchester City when each landed the first of their many trophies. He fought for a fair player wage and the right to transfer between clubs, taking on a powerful Edwardian Establishment determined to limit the money workers took from a game the aristocracy had invented.

The ceremony brought together Microsoft co-founder Gates, tech mogul Elon Musk, and Hollywood's A-list, including Kim Kardashian, Margot Robbie, and Olivia Wilde. Gates arrived at the ceremony accompanied by Hurd, a philanthropist who was married to Mark Hurd for 30 years until his passing in 2019. Musk, clad in a classic suit with a bow tie, struck a whacky pose for photos, throwing his hands in the air and looking upward. The glittering event, held at the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures in Los Angeles, California, celebrates major scientific achievements of the year.

Over the years, Gates has maintained that the three best career paths for recent graduates are those in alternative energy, health biosciences, and advancing artificial intelligence itself - but notably 'billionaire philanthropist' is not on that list. 'I could even lose my job,' Gates quipped on his podcast this year. The Microsoft co-founder has recently focused his blog and podcast on the future promise and ethical dimensions of AI

Former Southampton footballer Matt Le Tissier has bizarrely hinted that the government planned the 2020 lockdown to stop people going outside and enjoying the sunshine, as he bemoaned the current 'horrific' weather across the UK.

He wrote: 'This year's weather so far has been horrific, wasn't it lucky for the government that 4 years ago when they locked us down we had wall to wall sunshine for weeks on end. It's almost like they planned it that way.'

Every golfer wants to win The Masters. Every one dreams of being a part of Augusta National. The truth isn't that straightforward. If you have tickets to The Masters, you will most likely walk the hallowed grounds of Augusta National. The good news? To buy them, you won't have to mortgage your house. The bad news? They are incredibly difficult to get. You have to win the lottery to attend The Masters. Not the actual lottery, although that won't hurt, but the ballot, which supporters must register for and hope they hit the jackpot. However, even if golfers can make it to Amen Corner to see their favorite pros battle Amen Corner, they face an even bigger challenge when competing in one of the sport's most popular courses.

Lynch (pictured) reportedly committed'massive deception' when he tricked computer giant Hewlett-Packard into purchasing his Autonomy for £8.6 billion in 2011.

In a dress that was similar to the one she wore to the Met Gala for her lavish pre-wedding festivities, Radhika Merchant channeled Blake Lively. Radhika, 29, is marrying Anant Ambani, 28, the son of Indian businessman Mukesh Ambani, who has a net worth of more than $116 billion. They are not getting married until July, but they kicked off the wedding process early with Ivanka Trump's, Mark Zuckerberg, and Bill Gates' three-day wedding extravaganza, which culminated in a $9 million, 90-minute performance by Rihanna.

Billionaire Mukesh Ambani is expected to have spent more than £120 million on three days of festivities, which culminated in a dazzling invite list of the world's most influential individuals. Bill Gates, the founder of Microsoft, Metaptuous Food, Ivanka Trump, and scores of other illustrious names dined delectable food in opulent surroundings, were welcomed by Rihanna, who was charged £5 million for a two-hour set. During the lavish weekend, guests indulged themselves in the most exquisite way possible, but for those who live nearby it was a sad tale of poverty and deprivation a million miles away from the palace's doorstep.

Rihanna shunned the scandal surrounding her Indian wedding appearance posting a shocking new photo on Instagram. The actress, 36, posed in a slew of snazzy underwear sets from her self-designed collection, posting it on Instagram. She was jaw-dropping in the pictures, featuring racy push-up bras, a mesh bodysuit, a flesh-flashing triangle bralet, and a slew of different styles.

As they enjoyed Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant's pre-wedding function, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg and wife Priscilla Chan were seen appreciating the Richard Mille timepiece. 'Entering' marked three days of grand festivities, which attendee Ivanka Trump described as "enchanting." Ivanka was one of the celebrity studded guests at Ambani's parents' home in Jamnagar, Gujarat, where Bill Gates was also present. In July, Ambani and Merchant will marry.
