Toymakers brace for disruption from closing of Toys R Us stores

Toymakers brace for disruption from closing of Toys R Us stores Toymakers big and small braced for severe disruption as bankrupt retailer Toys R Us Inc. confirmed Thursday that it plans to liquidate its U.S. business. Toys R Us, which for decades was the nation's go-to store for toys and games, said it plans to shutter all 735 stores in the United States and Puerto Rico, including 22 in the greater Los Angeles area and 87 in California overall. The move jeopardizes 33,000 jobs at Toys R Us, or an average of 45 employees per store, which means job losses in California could total 3,900. The Wayne, N.J., company said it was in talks with unidentified parties for possibly combining up to 200 of its top-performing U.S. stores with its Canadian operations but would continue winding down its U.S. locations in the meantime. Toys R Us also is pursuing a sale of the Canadian unit, along with its operations in Asia and Central Europe, and it's looking e

UFC 222 results: Full winners, analysis and reaction from Cyborg vs. Kunitskaya

UFC 222 results: Full winners, analysis and reaction from Cyborg vs. Kunitskaya Cris Cyborg put her UFC Women’s Featherweight Championship on the line in the main event of UFC 222: Cyborg vs. Kunitskaya, and she was successful in her defense. She scored a first-round knockout over Yana Kunitskaya, earning her 20th career win. Kunitskaya was scrappy, and fighting above her weight class. She threatened a submission early, and hopped onto Cyborg’s back at one point. Cyborg, though, eventually got back to her feet, out of the clinch, and every time she put her hands on Kunitskaya, she knocked her down. Eventually, she started hammering away while standing over Kunitskaya, and the referee stopped the fight. Frankie Edgar was stunned by Brian Ortega in the penultimate fight on the card. Edgar was working his usual in-and-out game with quick jabs and an unrelenting pace. He landed some good shots on Ortega, the bigger, but slower fighter. Ortega took his time though, and eventually

Analysis: Warriors take care of business in Atlanta, defeat Hawks 114-109

Analysis: Warriors take care of business in Atlanta, defeat Hawks 114-109 Even with Stephen Curry playing limited minutes after sustaining a slight right ankle sprain, the Warriors get the victory and finish their east coast road trip with a 3-0 record. Playing in Atlanta on Friday night, the Golden State  Warriors  were in control for most of their game against the Atlanta  Hawks , leading by as many as 15 points. Though the Hawks used a 9-0 run in the final two minutes of the game to cut the Warriors’ advantage to two points, the Warriors hung on for the win, one that was punctuated by this steal and slam dunk by  Andre Iguodala . As the Hawks are one of the teams near the bottom of the league’s standings, one shouldn’t draw too many conclusions from this game. That said, there are a few things from this game that are worth highlighting. Curry scores 28 points in just 23 minutes Midway through the first quarter, Warriors fans had an all-too familiar scare as  St
