Olympic hockey game schedules set for 2026 Milan Cortina Games
The U.S. women's hockey team will face Czechia in its first game of the 2026 Milan Cortina Olympics, while the U.S. men play Latvia in their opener. The women's tournament starts Feb. 5, one day before the Opening Ceremony, and finishes with medal games Feb. 19. The men's tournament starts Feb. 11 (the U.S. opens Feb. 12) and finishes Feb. 22, the day of the Closing Ceremony. In the women's tournament, the U.S. and Canada have met in six of the seven Olympic finals. Canada is the reigning Olympic champion. The U.S. is the reigning world champion. They're joined in Group A by Czechia, Switzerland and Finland. At the world championship in April, the U.S. edged Czechia 2-1 in a close semifinal, though the Americans outshot the Czechs 45-11. OLYMPIC HOCKEY SCHEDULES: Women | Men All of the Group A teams — the world's five highest-ranked teams — automatically qualify for the quarterfinals and will be seeded based on their group results. In the men's tournament, NHL players will participate for the first time since the 2014 Sochi Games. The U.S. is grouped with Latvia, Denmark and Germany. The three group winners, plus the single best second-place team, advance to the quarterfinals. The other eight teams play in a qualification round to determine the last four quarterfinalists. Finland won the 2022 Olympic title without NHL players. Canada won the last two Olympics with NHL players. The U.S. last won Olympic men's hockey gold at the 1980 Lake Placid Games. Nick Zaccardi,

What caused the blackout on the final day of Cannes Film Festival?
A widespread power outage disrupted southeastern France on Saturday morning, briefly halting daily life and delaying events at the Cannes Film Festival just hours before the prestigious Closing Ceremony. Electricity was fully restored around 3 p.m., prompting cheers from locals as music returned to the beachfront and life resumed on the Croisette. The outage affected approximately 160,000 households across the Alpes-Maritimes region after a high-voltage power line collapsed early Saturday, according to French electricity grid operator RTE. The disruption followed an overnight fire at an electrical substation near Cannes, which had already strained the power infrastructure. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Villas For Sale in Dubai Might Surprise You Villas in Dubai | Search Ads Get Info Undo The reason behind Cannes blackout According to an AP report, authorities suspecting possible arson as possible cause of the blackout. 'We are looking into the likelihood of a fire being started deliberately,' a spokesperson for the French national gendarmerie said. Festival organizers confirmed that the blackout impacted early events on Saturday, but assured that the Palais des Festivals had switched to a backup power source and that the evening's scheduled programs, including the Closing Ceremony, would continue as planned. Live Events 'All scheduled events and screenings, including the Closing Ceremony, will proceed as planned and under normal conditions,' organizers stated. 'At this stage, the cause of the outage has not yet been identified. Restoration efforts are underway.' In the city, traffic lights went dark around 10 a.m., causing traffic jams and confusion across Cannes and nearby Antibes. Several shops along the iconic Croisette closed, and vendors switched to cash-only transactions. Train service in Cannes experienced temporary disruptions as well. Screenings at the Cineum, a satellite venue of the festival, were also briefly suspended before power was restored. Despite the morning's chaos, the festival's grand finale is expected to unfold without further interruptions.

Get The Beauty Look: Holiday Mermaid Waves
VENICE, ITALY - SEPTEMBER 07: Sienna Miller attends the Closing Ceremony red carpet during the 81st Venice International Film Festival at Palazzo del Cinema on September 07, 2024 in Venice, Italy. (Photo by Stefania D'Alessandro/WireImage) This season of The White Lotus has delivered more than just must-watch entertainment, it's also serving up major holiday fashion and hair inspiration. The new ensemble cast showcases easy breezy beachy, mermaid waves, as seen on Aimee Lou Wood's character, Chelsea, and Jaclyn, played by Michelle Monaghan. We've also seen this look on fashion sweethearts Sienna Miller and Keira Knightley, both longtime fans of boho-inspired mermaid waves. Celebrity hairstylist Luke Hersheson, who frequently works with both actresses, has perfected this effortlessly chic style, as seen on Sienna at the Venice Film Festival last year. Luke on why he loves the mermaid hair look, says, 'Mermaid waves are a chic way to style your hair in springtime and beyond. To create the mermaid look on shorter hair, like Kiera, prep the hair with Almost Everything Cream when it was wet – great for priming, moisturising and boosting shine, it's an essential in my kit. When blow-drying hair, work through the Zhoosh through roots and ends to give the hair more hold.' LONDON, ENGLAND - DECEMBER 03: Keira Knightley attends the "Black Doves" Season One World Premiere at the BFI Southbank on December 03, 2024 in London, England. (Photo by Samir Hussein/WireImage) He recommends starting with small sections, 'Take fairly small sections of the hair, using the mermaid waver attachment from our new Multi-Tasker tool to create undone bends. On Kiera's hair I worked from the bottom, upwards. When I got to the top of her hair, I started dragging it a little away from the root. I finished with a spritz of Air Dry Spray to give her hair some hold.' A look that's as popular as ever and perfectly timed for holiday season, Dale Herne, expert stylist at Hershesons, shares, 'As we enter the summer holiday season, everyone is craving hair that feels looser and relaxed. It's easy to work and style at home. Take the mermaid waver attachment of the Multi-Tasker long set, and take big sections of the hair, about two inches from the root. Depending on the length of your hair, you may need to do this just once or, if you have longer hair, move down towards the end of the hair and clamp again.' To recreate this look at home, Dale shares his step-by-step guide.
