So magnanimous. There has been no report I’ve encountered, though, that quotes even an anonymous team official as saying something as uncomplicated as: Nope. You’d think someone with a voice at one of these franchises would have the courage and conscience to declare they do not wish their team to be associated even in a news report with someone in Watson’s circumstance. This is how best to describe Watson at the moment....

Rittenhouse, a white 17-year-old from Illinois, was released from jail after being charged with killing two people in Kenosha, Wisconsin this summer during a Black Lives Matter demonstration protesting the police murder of Jacob Blake. “Does anyone believe Rittenhouse would be released if he were Muslim & did the same thing in a diff context? For people who say ‘systemic racism doesn’t exist,’ this is what it looks like: protection of white supremacy baked deep into our carceral systems,” Ocasio-Cortez tweeted on Saturday....

Speculation that Ocasio-Cortez could run for Schumer’s seat next year grew last week when former President Donald Trump waded into the ongoing battle over President Joe Biden’s $3.5 trillion “Build Back Better” spending bill. In an email sent out to supporters on Friday, Trump said he believed that should the bill fail to pass, progressive Democrats would look to increase their power. “The Progressives gain far more power with the legislation being currently talked about by failing than if it passes,” he said....

Most typically, aortic aneurysms develop quite gradually, over a period of several years, so never grow to the point that rupture becomes likely. Such aneurysms rarely produce any symptoms. However, in other cases, an aneurysm may grow much more rapidly and become quite large, causing symptoms. These symptoms are a sign that rupture is becoming more likely. When an aortic aneurysm ruptures the risk of death is very high—even if emergency surgery can be performed....

Championship leaders Joseph Mathew (Suzuki Gixxer Cup) and Lalhruaizela (Red Bull Road to Rookies Cup), however, suffered their first defeats in three rounds; they still managed to hang on to their positions on the leaderboard though. Chennai’s Joseph was upstaged by Aizawl’s Malsawmdawngliana and Ahmedabad’s Sachin Chaudhary to take the third position. He is still comfortably ahead in the championship battle with 56 points in his kitty, a neat 17 points ahead of the field....

The anterior interosseous nerve is sometimes called the volar interosseous nerve. (Volar means “palm side.”) Some textbooks treat the AIN just as part of the median nerve rather than an actual branch. Anatomy The nerves in your body are structured somewhat like trees, with roots coming off of the spinal cord and combining to form trunks. Branches split off from the trunk along the nerve’s course, connecting to various muscles, bones, patches of skin and other structures all over your body....

Antetokounmpo scored 29 points and Khris Middleton added 27 to help the Milwaukee Bucks bounce back from their first consecutive losses of the season with a 117-98 victory over the Indiana Pacers on Thursday night. Milwaukee, which improved to an NBA-best 49-16, was coming off back-to-back losses to Utah and Phoenix after opening a five-game road trip with three victories. The Bucks ran off 13 consecutive points after Antetokounmpo was assessed a technical midway through the third quarter, one possession after he was knocked down attempting a shot, with no foul called....

Within Anthem, masterwork level items are some of the best and most powerful gear that players can come across, just sitting below the Legendary tier of gear rarity. They display with an orange hue and have a better chance of appearing when players play some of the more difficult missions the game has to offer on the various Grandmaster difficulties or taking on Legendary Contracts and Strongholds. Not only do these items have a unique look to them, but they also come with special perks and abilities already built into each one....

What does and does not count as a Collectible will be most players’ main issue once they reach the Trial of Yvenia mission that 10 Collectibles. For example, chests, loot, and materials are not Collectibles, though players will want to collect them to complete different Challenges. Collectibles are any number of objects found in Freeplay including books, papers, overlooks, hidden symbols, and more.

In the trailer, Anthem’s Javelin suits, with their multiple flaring jet back boosters, are shown in incredible detail as they fly through ruins, waterfalls, and the open sky. Owners of 2000-series Nvidia graphics cards will be pleased to hear that this level of quality will be achieved with relative ease, as BioWare announced during the show that Anthem will support Nvidia’s DLSS technology. Beyond the DLSS announcement, there’s a good amount of new content within the trailer for all Anthem fans....

On Twitter, Anthem’s lead designer Corey Gaspur confirmed that the game’s single player experience is “very important” to the team. Apologizing for a delay in replying to fan questions, Gaspur also said that more “detailed information” regarding Anthem’s single player will be revealed closer to launch. Given that the Anthem release date is not until late next year, fans could be waiting a while for information on that front....

As seen in the Twitch video below, Darrah is asked whether or not Anthem will feature armor pieces and guns that have random rolls of perks and stats, with the BioWare developer saying that this will indeed be the case. Unfortunately, though, the game’s executive producer didn’t provide any further details insofar as any other details relating to gear is concerned. [HTML1] When it comes to previously revealed details about Anthem’s guns and gear, BioWare has at least provided fans with an idea of how it will approach weapon progression, by mixing the ability to either invest in a newer, more powerful weapon, or one that has been upgraded into a formidable firearm....

Bennett has reportedly been on the trading block since the draft in June. The Timberwolves didn’t find a taker for him then, and are still looking for one, especially after adding big man Karl Anthony-Towns with the No. 1 overall pick.

Davis was considered an All-Star snub because of the large steps forward he has taken in his second pro season. The No. 1 pick in the 2012 NBA Draft is averaging 20.5 points, 10.5 rebounds and 3.3 blocks. Davis will play in the game in his home arena, the newly named Smoothie King Center.

Johnson, a Wisconsin Republican, compared Fauci’s handling of the COVID-19 pandemic to AIDS while appearing on Fox News host Brian Kilmeade’s radio show on Wednesday, according to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. “Fauci did the exact same thing with AIDS. He overhyped it. He created all kinds of fear, saying it could affect the entire population when it couldn’t,” Johnson said. “And he’s doing—he’s using the exact same playbook with COVID....

As the MCU enters the waters of Phase 4, it’s clear that there will be a change in leadership for Marvel’s Avengers after Tony Stark’s death and Steve Rogers’ retirement, two positions that seem tailor-made for Holland and Mackie, who played each man’s protégés for many years. Although the complications of Spider-Man being a Sony property do hinder Peter Parker’s chances of becoming Marvel’s commanding officer, it’s clear the web-swinging superhero was immensely more popular than Mackie’s Falcon....

ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported that the Saints were holding a workout for the wide receiver, with the chance of signing him to an actual contract. Despite the fact that he has only played in one game this entire NFL season, Brown has been one of the most popular names throughout. This past March, the Pittsburgh Steelers traded him to the Oakland Raiders. But after a number of different issues, Brown was released by the Raiders and was shortly picked up by the New England Patriots....

The duo shared the locker room in Pittsburgh for nine seasons, but their relationship came to an acrimonious end as Brown grew dissatisfied with his role in the organization and was eventually traded to the Oakland Raiders in March last year. On Wednesday, however, the seven-time Pro Bowl selection appeared to offer an olive branch to Roethlisberger, admitting he had underestimated how successful their relationship had been. “Mostly you a little bit of me !...
