Last week, Norwegian cross-country skier Therese Johaug received her 13-month ban by the Norwegian anti-doping agency.
The most notable financial loss for Johaug is the sponsorship deal with ski equipment company Fischer, writes Dagens Industri.

South Africans burn Nigerian homes in Johannesburg
Residents of Rosettenville in Johannesburg on Saturday, February 11, went on a rampage burning 10 houses they allege belonged to Nigerians running drug dens and brothels in South Africa.
According to the angry residents, they said Nigerians have been running illegitimate businesses in the country.
Speaking to Sowetan Live, Albert Mwenza, a Malawian man and his family who were living at one of the buildings that were burnt narrated his ordeal.
'When a larger group came back, I was told to leave, but I refused. I was then forced out. Some of the people jumped over the wall into the house and stole our belongings.
'They then threw petrol bombs. Everything else that was left inside was burnt to ashes. I am sad because we are innocent and have nothing to do with drugs and brothels.'

How the director of the new 'Lego Movie' made Batman great again
- Warner Bros.
There's just something about Batman that gets audiences excited.
Whether he's in comic-book form, a playful 1960s TV character, or the focus of a brooding feature-length blockbuster, the Dark Knight is a character we just can't get enough of - even in Lego form.

That was evident when one of the highlights from the 2014 "The Lego Movie" was the appearance of the Lego Batman, a self-centered hero who did everything on his own terms and was voiced perfectly by Will Arnett. He was so popular, in fact, that once the movie came out it was obvious Warner Bros. should make a spin-off movie dedicated to Batman.
Tasked with pulling that off was Chris McKay. Known within the animation world for directing episodes of the Adult Swim show "Robot Chicken," as well as working on the visual effects and editing side of the show's "Star Wars" movies, McKay was also the editor and codirector on Phil Lord and Christopher Miller's "The Lego Movie." McKay was even in charge of the movie's animation and rendering when Lord and Miller had to go and direct "22 Jump Street."

- Margareta Bloom Sandebäck
For over a year Elina Berglund nuclear physicist has been fighting authorities and malicious headlines. Now her app will be the first in the world to be approved as a contraceptive.
“It feels incredibly exciting that there is now an approved alternative to conventional pregnancy prevention methods, and that it’s possible to replace medication with technology,” says a more than satisfied Elina Berglund, who founded Natural Cycles together with her husband Raoul Scherwizl.
The approval comes from the German inspection and certification organization Tüv Süd, which has classified the app in the medicinal category of IIb. That means Natural Cycles officially offers a new, clinically tested alternative to birth control methods such as contraceptive pills, contraceptive implants and condoms.

One day after the New England Patriots won the Super Bowl, safety Devin McCourty announced that he will not visit the White House with his teammates, saying he wouldn't feel "accepted" in the White House because of President Donald Trump's "many strong opinions and prejudices."

McCourty is already the second Patriots player to say he is skipping the tradition. Earlier, tight end Martellus Bennett said he would not be making the trip, saying he doesn't support "the guy that's in the House."
While championship teams being invited to the White House is a long-standing tradition, players opting out is becoming an even bigger one and it is going to lead to a big change in how the ceremony is handled.

The anti-Trump boycott movement, launched by Shannon Coulter, has been branded with the hashtag #GrabYourWallet on social media.
Alternatively, Trump's supporters have threatened to stop giving their business to companies that bow to the pressure and drop Trump products.
Here's a list of the companies that have cut ties with the Trump family.
