Manchester City's record-breaking previous season was crowned with their first league title under the management of Pep Guardiola, pictured in May 2018, who is warning fans not to expect a repeat in the upcoming season.

City became the first ever team in the Premier League to win with 100 points as well as securing the biggest title-winning margin (19 points) by scoring the most goals (106), most wins (32), most consecutive wins (18) and best goal difference (+79).

A 26-year-old woman aboard a party barge on Lake Travis took a tumble from the vessel’s upper deck, falling into the popular reservoir on the Colorado River upstream from Austin about 7 that evening. She was not wearing a personal flotation device — a life jacket — and may have hit her head during the fall. She didn’t surface after hitting the water — water that, at that spot on Lake Travis, is 100-140 feet deep and where, as of last report, game wardens had not yet been able to locate or recover her body. It was the first day of National Safe Boating Week, an annual effort among state and national boating groups and marine law enforcement agencies to try raising awareness of safe boating practices and boating … [Read more...] about Lake Travis death underscores importance of following boating safety measures
