McDonough and Halperin, who's the widow of Dr. Michael J. Davidson, the Brigham and Women's Hospital surgeon who was shot to death by the son of one of his patients in 20 1 5, both ran to raise money for a fellowship in Dr.

Davidson's memory. (Along with other runners, the pair raised $50,000 for the cause.) In case you're wondering, Daniel Chebii won the men's title for the second year in a row with a time of 27 minutes, 58 seconds, while BAA rookie Joan Chelimo claimed the women's race in 31:24. Boston favorite Meb Keflezighi won the men's masters race in 31:01. ijiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii 0 Ad makes Gronk a faux ranger with a fake mustache Remember Ranger Rick, the magazine for kids filled with fun facts and cute pics of animals? Well, Rob Gronkowski is Ranger Rob. The Patriots tight end plays a goofy park ranger in a new commercial for Oberto Beef Jerky.

The spot was shot last week at Hopkinton State Park and very soon after debuted online. In the ad, the big oaf, dressed as a park ranger (with a fake mustache), approaches unsuspecting visitors as they enter the park. Hilarity ensues.

Champs hit the links Tom Brady's got a few more weeks before he and his Patriots teammates have to report to training camp and begin what they hope will be a long march to yet another Super Bowl title. In the meantime, Tommy Boy is working on his golf game. Over the weekend, Brady posted a picture on Insta-gram of himself and NBA champ Steph Curry (at right) on the links, captioning the photo: "Young Jedi." In the past, Brady has golfed with NBA great Michael Jordan and, of course, President Trump. PARAS GRIFFINGETTY IMAGES New Edition performs at the BET Awards Sunday in Los Angeles. New Edition steals the show at BET Awards Sheen is source of Ruth auction items A few weeks ago, we reported that a copy of the 1919 contract that sent Babe Ruth from the Red Sox to the Yankees was up for auction.

Now we know the identity of the person selling the prized baseball paraphernalia. It's none other than Charlie Sheen. The actor (inset) told ESPN that he consigned the contract and Ruth's )v 1927 World Series ring to the auction house Lelands.com. Bidding on the ring has topped $600,000, which makes it the highest-priced sports championship ring ever sold. The contract, which belonged to then-Yankees owner Jacob Ruppert, has so far fetched a bid over $400,000.

"While I have greatly enjoyed owning Babe Ruth's 1927 World Series ring and the historic 1919 contract selling him from the Red Sox to the Yankees, I thought now was the right time to sell the Holy Grail of Ruth memorabilia so others can enjoy them," said Sheen, a baseball fan who played pitcher Rick Vaughn in the movie "Major League." "It is my hope that whoever buys these will be able to put them on display for the public." Affleck on board for T.J. Miller disses Harvard: 'Crimson trash' DAN CUTRONABRIGHAM AND WOMEN'S HOSPITAL TOM BRADYINSTAGRAM HBO had confirmed in May that Miller wouldn't be back for the upcoming fifth season of the show. But it wasn't clear why. Talking to THR, Mill er, who plays Erlich Bachman on "Silicon Valley," made it sound like the break-up was inevitable. He's no fan of Berg "I didn't talk to Alec because I don't like Alec" and Miller takes a gratuitous shot at Middleditch.

"I'm not an actor; I'm a comedian. And I don't know how the expletive I hoodwinked Hollywood into giving me a career in this," he said. "But I'm not sitting here saying, 'I need more lines. I'm not funny I'm not Thomas Middleditch." Ouch. 9 0 "Poison." The miniseries, "The New Edition Story," aired on BET in January, and attracted 28.4 million viewers, according to Variety.

Meanwhile, the day before the band was honored on BET, Bivins began giving out hundreds of free Roxbury YMCA memberships to teens in the neighborhood. The Michael L. Bivins Get Summer Scholarship will give Roxbury kids ages 13-19 full access to the Roxbury YMCA through Sept. 4. ARox-bury native, Bivins spent a lot of time in his local YMCA.

"Every kid deserves to have somewhere to go where they feel safe and welcome and every parent deserves to know their child is being cared for," Bivins said. New Edition stole the show at the 2017 BET Awards Sunday. The six members of the Roxbury boy band Ricky Bell, Michael Bivins, Ronnie De-Voe, Johnny Gill, Ralph Tresvant, and Bobby Brown took home a Lifetime Achievement award and then dominated the stage in Los Angeles when they performed renditions of their classic hits, including "Mr. Telephone Man" and "If It Isn't Love," proving that they're oh-so-deserving of the honor. The audience was also treated to a musical retrospective of their post-New Edition careers by the cast of "The New Edition Story" miniseries, who performed Brown's solo hit "My Prerogative," and Bell Biv DeVoe's If you were thinking T.J.

Miller's departure from the HBO comedy "Silicon Valley" might be temporary, think again. Even if Miller wanted to come back to the show and he clearly doesn't he's unlikely to be asked back after giving an interview to The Hollywood Reporter in which he dissed cast-mate Thomas Middleditch, executive producer Alec Berg, and all the writers in Hollywood who graduated from Harvard. "I don't know how smart Berg is. He went to Harvard, and we all know those kids are expletive idiots," Miller said. "That Crimson trash.

Those comedy writers in Hollywood are expletive Harvard graduates and that's why they're smug as a bug." sequel to 'The Accountant' When Ben Affleck isn't busy playing Batman he's reprising the Caped Crusader role in the upcoming "Justice League," "Justice League Part Two," and "The Batman" he'll be making a sequel to "The Accountant." reports that Affleck has signed on to make a follow-up to the 2016 film in which he played an autistic math whiz who uncooks the books of criminal enterprises around the world. The film, which costarred Anna Kend-rick, J.K. Simmons, Jon Bernthal, Jeffrey Tambor, and John Lithgow, was made for $44 million and grossed an impressive $155 million at the box office.

'I left the theater wielding a fake sword and jumping around, stabbing my husband, like "You have to DIE! Because of love." ALISON BRIE, actress, talking about watching "Wonder Woman" with her husband, DaveFranco return to 'Joshua Tree' An uplifting By Marc Hirsh GLOBE CORRESPONDENT FOXBOROUGH U2 was already U2 by the time "The Joshua Tree" was released in 1987. The songs were there, the sound was there, the political focus and emotional empathy of their mission was there. What changed was the scale, of both the band's own vision and the audience's embrace of it.

Sunday's sold-out concert at Gillette Stadium commemorated the album's 30th anniversary by playing it in full, and it served as both a reminder of and reckoning with the power that fell into U2's grasp at that moment in its history. A handful of Tree" songs provided context for what was to come. With no fanfare, Larry Mullen Jr. casually sauntered down the catwalk extending into the audience and began pounding out the drum intro to "Sunday Bloody Sunday," joined one at a time by his bandmates as their parts entered the song. The equally martial "New Year's Day" followed, then the and more all.

But there was such uniform uplift that there was no hint that U2 was tired of any of them three decades on. "One Tree Hill" might have been about grief walking in bright daylight, but something seemed to be let loose by from U2 the end, when the band was digging in and flying at once. The encore couldn't touch the depth or breadth of the band's career since its breakthrough album, though open-your-eyes anthem "Beautiful Day," the buzzy and celebratory "Elevation," and "Vertigo" provided a rousing one-two-three punch amid more politically-inclined selections. U2 closed on the new "The Little Things That Give You Away," with a tremulous, John Legend-ish vocal from Bono. When the Edge switched from piano to guitar, the song shifted from minor-key moody to major-key victorious; the drums kicked up and the bass drove forward, and it was unmistakably U2.

Stomp-and-holler openers the Lumineers pulled off the admirably difficult trick of filling a stadium with an-themic yearning with just a folk-band lineup.

The direct segue into the organ heralding the start of "Where the Streets Have No Name" as the band moved to the main stage suggested an unbroken progression, but the scope felt undeniably different. Still, there was little of the messianic (or, later, satanic) posturing of old, save for Bono's slick huckster persona during the tense "Exit." The singer largely stood his ground with relaxed confidence, focusing his power in the massive stadium instead of dissipating it.
