on paper the best matchup of the group stage is upcoming at 245 est. its is netherlands v. germany. it is essentially a must win for the netherlands having been upset by denmark in the first game though it wouldnt be guaranteed elimination if they managed to tie.

Gertrude Stein made a lot of people angry when she published her memoirs, The Autobiography of Alice B. Toklas. A handful of artists and writers (Henri Matisse and Tristan Tzara, among others) disagreed with a bunch of the events she told; they ended up publishing a line-by-line treatise, Testimony Against Gertrude Stein, about everything she got wrong.
