Given that, USWNT coach Vlatko Andonovski made it clear following Thursday’s roster announcement that it’s still an exhibition game. That was apparent when star striker Alex Morgan was not included on the roster as she recovers from a minor knee injury. If this were the FIFA Women’s World Cup, Andonovski said, “Alex would be going to be on this trip, and she would be playing in this game, no question....
The Blues defenseman got himself a haircut, courtesy of his niece Ellie, who’s battling cancer herself. Nice work, Ellie!
The incident came right after Alex Rodriguez had signed a record-breaking deal with the Texas Rangers. Rodriguez gave an interview to ESPN radio. During the interview, he spoke about his $252 million contract with the Rangers. When asked who he believed would break his record-breaking deal, A-Rod went on to name Andruw Jones and Pedro Martinez. They are legends in their own right, and it wasn’t strange that he had named them....
Ocasio-Cortez and Tlaib, who had organized a trip to the border facilities together, were asked to testify about what they witnessed during Friday’s House Committee on Oversight and Reform hearing on the Trump administration’s child separation policy. Ocasio-Cortez, who voluntarily swore-in so her testimony would be under oath, told Chairman Elijah Cummings that she met with a group of women while visiting the Clint migrant facility in Southwest Texas. “They were put into a cell and the sink was not working so they were told to drink out of a toilet bowl, I believed them,” she said, partially responding to prior claims by Republicans that migrants did not have to drink out of toilet bowls but instead had drinking water fountains installed into the tops of their toilets....
The Biden administration sanctioned seven senior Russian officials and 14 entities associated with Russia’s biological and chemical agent production, after U.S. intelligence concluded Russia’s Federal Security Service (FSB) was behind Navalny’s poisoning by the Novichok nerve agent in August 2020. This was in violation of the Chemical Weapons Convention, although the Kremlin denies responsibility. Among those blacklisted are FSB director Alexander Bortnikov, director of the Russian Federal Penitentiary Service, Alexander Kalashnikov, and Putin’s first deputy chief of staff Sergei Kiriyenko....
The firm’s partnership with Cherry – dubbed Project X – started three years ago and has resulted in shrinking down the MX switch down to a small enough size to fit in a laptop chassis. The m15 R4 means you get that desktop gaming keyboard experience but wherever you go. The ultra-low profile MX switch is just 3.5mm in height, a huge difference from the 18.5mm original and even the 11....
In a 46-page ruling issued in Thursday, U.S. District Court Judge Donald Middlebrooks hit out at attempts by Habba and Trump to use the courts to target dozens of defendants who the former president claimed conspired to damage his chances of winning the 2016 election by pushing his campaign’s alleged ties to Russia. Middlebrooks sanctioned the pair for their abuse of the judicial process, ordering them jointly to pay nearly $938,000 in legal costs for the 31 defendants which include the Democratic National Committee, Hillary Clinton, and former FBI director James Comey....
Pujols decided that Puig had committed one too many breaches of baseball etiquette Monday, and he let Puig know about it a couple of ways. MORE: Dodgers broadcast review | Angels review It’s likely Pujols didn’t appreciate Puig spiking him at first base, or Puig doing the Mutombo finger wag after nearly doubling up Erick Aybar from downtown LA: When Sir Albert got an opportunity to run on Puig’s vaunted arm, he pounced, going from first to second after Puig lazily caught a lazy fly ball....
The Neptunes were the brains behind Britney Spears’s “I’m a Slave 4 U,” Nelly’s “Hot in Herre,” “Frontin” with Jay-Z and Justin Timberlake’s “Like I Love You.” They’re alchemists who specialize in reinventing pop stars. Take Britney. “I didn’t want people to feel like a pedophile for looking at her,” says Williams, 30. “There was no reason she should still live in the shadows of the Mickey Mouse Club.” But it was their own last album, “The Neptunes Present… Clones,” that ratcheted up Williams’s profile to celebrity level....
Jones was responding to a recent discussion on CNN, during which host Brian Stelter compared Carlson to Jones, and senior media reporter Oliver Darcy agreed with the comparison. In a video posted on the InfoWars website, Jones appeared to praise Carlson for recognizing the same issues that he had. He added that the Fox News host isn’t taking his cues from him. Jones said: “And they’ve come out and said that Tucker Carlson is the new Alex Jones....
“We have not seen the final text of this bill, but what I can say is that if it matches up with what has been reported, I will not support this bill personally,” the New York Democrat said on Monday. “I’m not speaking for our caucus, I’m not speaking for our delegation, I’m not speaking for anybody,” Ocasio-Cortez added. “But as the person who is representing the most impacted district in the country, my constituents are upset....
A day after U.S. Soccer released a statement Saturday ordering all of its players to “stand respectfully” for the national anthem, Lalas expressed his feelings toward the issue on national TV during halftime of FS1’s broadcast of Atlanta United’s MLS debut against the New York Red Bulls. “It’s a privilege, it’s an honor and it’s a choice to represent your country. And it comes with responsibilities and expectations.” Lalas said....
Since signing from Arsenal in January, Alexis has struggled for consistency - albeit in a team that has rarely played to his strengths. His only previous goal came after Huddersfield goalkeeper Jonas Lossl parried a weak penalty back into his path. So patchy was his form he was benched for the FA Cup tie against Brighton prior to the international break. But having been reintroduced to the starting XI and deployed on the left-hand side of an attacking trio behind central striker Romelu Lukaku he began to thrive, drifting inside to lay on the opening goal for the Belgian forward, who netted for the 100th time in the Premier League via Alfie Mawson’s knee....
The broadcaster is calling All 4 its new digital home for all Channel 4 content which is essentially what the iPlayer is to BBC. The new brand identity will ‘present all of Channel 4’s linear channels, digital content and services in one place, for the first time’. David Abraham, chief executive of Channel 4, said: “Having been a pioneer of VoD services in the UK, we think the future of TV viewing lies not with either linear or on-demand, but a creative and visual integration of the two worlds, blending the strengths of both into a single brand....
Take the new Alienware m15 R5, the latest model for 2021, which costs just £1,499 or $1,599. That makes it one of the most affordable laptops that Alienware has ever produced, and it plants this machine firmly into the mid-range market rather than the more unattainable high-end arena. This alone makes this a tempting proposition but has Dell made sacrifices to achieve these prices? Design & Build The m15 R5 adheres to Alienware’s familiar design language, so it doesn’t introduce anything new....
