First, make no mistake about it—this was an armed insurrection. While arrests and indictments are still rolling into our court system, at least nine individuals were arrested on firearms charges relating to events in or around the Capitol. These arrests include a man who traveled to D.C. from Colorado, texting that he would be “putting a bullet” in Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s head. It was no idle threat: authorities found him with a handgun, a pistol, an assault rifle, and hundreds of rounds of ammunition, including armor piercing bullets....

“I have been asked by everybody in the NFC East,” Aliotti told Oregonlive.com on Monday. “The Giants asked me to come back when Chip got the first job. I didn’t feel right doing that. Some teams have called when they’re getting ready to play the Eagles and they call and have certain questions on the thing. Unless I know the guy and he’s a good friend, I don’t get involved with that....

A day earlier, he didn't think that was happening. In what was called a miscommunication, the president of the university said LeGrand holds a “special place in the hearts of the Class of 2014 and the entire university community” and will be one of the speakers at the graduation ceremony in two weeks.

The president’s son was due to visit Huron Valley Guns in New Hudson for a “Make America Great Again” event on Tuesday. However, the Trump campaign team are said to have decided to change the location after it was revealed one of the 13 men arrested in connection to the governor Whitmer kidnap plot was employed there for a short period earlier this year. In a statement posted to Facebook, Huron Valley Guns confirmed a previous employee would show up “in a LOT of tactical gear,” which they found “a little odd....

The likely Hall of Fame guard is being recruited by ESPN and TNT as an analyst, according to a report from the New York Post, which cites unidentified sources. The report states both networks are preparing to offer Wade a position on air later this postseason. He has served in the role before, but it’s unclear whether Wade is interested in pursuing broadcasting full time, the report says. “Everybody has their own vision, their own path of how or when they walk away from the game,” Wade said in February, via the Miami Herald....

Because the Worldwide Leader in Sports took the unprecedented step of firing a public broadside against FS1 through its Front Row PR site Tuesday. Titled “Fox vs. ESPN: Anatomy of a Moving Target,” the article accuses FS1 of constantly shifting its ESPN “targets” to make small ratings victories look bigger than they are. ESPN even mocked FS1 with this funny video on Twitter: “Since FS1’s creation, its executives have naturally targeted ESPN, but it can be hard to keep up with their changing focus....

–JEAN GIRAUDOUX, “The Madwoman of Chaillot” No wonder earthlings haven’t heard from any aliens: we’ve been too busy gabbing instead of listening. As far back as 1899, J. P. Morgan bankrolled a scheme to beam radio signals into space from a huge coil of wire in Colorado; the transformer made the neighbors’ hair stand on end, but ET didn’t phone. Since 1939 the electromagnetic signals encoding “The Howdy Doody Show,” “Mister Ed” and every other TV program ever broadcast have been hurtling toward the distant stars at the speed of light, and by now have arrived at 1,100 stars....

Lawyers for Ethan Crumbley, the alleged Oxford High School shooter, said in a court filing Thursday that their client “intends to assert the defense of insanity at the time of the alleged offense and gives notice of his intention to claim such a defense.” The filing was first reported on by the Detroit Free Press. Crumbley faces two dozen charges including first-degree murder, attempted murder and terrorism causing death. He has pleaded not guilty to the first-degree murder charge....

Blinken has called for an international probe into the fighting in the Tigray region between its former ruling group the Tigray People’s Liberation Front (TPLF) and the Ethiopian National Defence Force (ENDF). Ethiopia’s government and regional officials in Tigray are disputing the legitimacy of each other’s governments after the pandemic disrupted elections. Violence erupted in November 2020 when Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed sent in government troops after state military facilities were attacked....

For this reason, it is most often prescribed to relieve the symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis. The FDA approved etodolac for use in 1991. It is available in oral tablets and capsules. Etodolac—like all NSAIDs—has a black box warning from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) related to cardiovascular thrombotic events and gastrointestinal risks. Black box warnings alert patients and healthcare providers to potentially dangerous side effects caused by a medication....

Up to 100,000 Russian troops, supported by armor and artillery, are deployed along Ukraine’s frontiers. While President Vladimir Putin presses for guarantees, Western powers are trying to prevent an incursion that media reports have suggested could come as soon as January. Russia has proposed talks with the U.S. and NATO to de-escalate the situation, and said on Wednesday that negotiations would begin next year. Moscow is demanding guarantees that Ukraine will not be allowed to join NATO, framing its posture as defensive....

Senior European Union (EU) officials will meet for a virtual summit with China’s President Xi Jinping on Friday, mostly for discussions of the war, which is now in its second month. The long-delayed summit comes as relations between China and the EU are already strained due to Beijing’s backing of Russia. The EU plans to warn China that there will be consequences, including sanctions if it provides aid to Russia....

Not all that long ago, it was hard to use “European farmers” and “markets” in a single sentence, unless perhaps you included the words “dumping” or “distorted.” Now, thanks to the global surge in the price of food and farm products (buoyed by a new emerging-market middle class), plus a series of important reforms to Europe’s 50-year-old subsidy system, market forces that haven’t been felt in ages are stirring in the continent’s fields, barns and meadows....

Er, no. The hour of Europe came and went. It took U.S. airstrikes and diplomatic arm twisting at Dayton to slow the Serbian killing machine in Bosnia in 1995, and again in Kosovo in 1999. So I was struck, on a recent visit to Washington, by how Euro-friendly senior U.S. officials have become. “We are all Europeanists now,” said one. Why? Because ever since Washington decided that “war-war” was for men and “jaw-jaw” was for wimps (read Europeans), the United States has been a spent force in the Middle East....

It was very unoffending, un-arresting. It was very “Coldplay.” But that’s just it. Is that what the NFL is going for? A very OK but uneventful halftime show? Coldplay is not bad. Their performance was not bad. But it was exactly what you expect from a Coldplay performance. MORE: Halftime show history | Doritos commercial creeps people out Then Beyonce showed up. Surely things would get better, right? Queen Bey showed up in her finest leather formal attire, strode to the stage, as flames and pyrotechnics shot into the stadium air....

Evening hours occur roughly from 6:00pm - 9:00pm. Or, from sunset until the sky gets fully dark. The actual timeframe will vary depending on your exact location and the time of year. The sky during the early evening may still be partially lit by the sun. This is called “twilight,” and it usually lasts for 1-3 hours after sunset, depending on your exact location and the time of year. Night hours usually last from 9:00pm - 4:00am....

Mangala featured in a defeat at Arsenal and the victory over Crystal Palace last time out, but he has suffered an injury while the Toffees have taken a mid-season training trip to Dubai. Allardyce hopes the return of Seamus Coleman, Phil Jagielka and Leighton Baines will help cover the Frenchman’s absence, while Ramiro Funes Mori recently played for the Under-23 side, having spent almost a year out due to knee injuries....

The Toffees have picked up two wins and a draw in the Premier League since Allardyce was named as Ronald Koeman’s permanent successor. Swansea, meanwhile, sit bottom of the table following Wednesday’s defeat at the hands of Manchester City with pressure continuing to mount on manager Paul Clement.

Walker has said a story published by The Daily Beast is false and he will sue the outlet, while Republicans who have previously expressed their anti-abortion views have publicly backed him. The Republican is in a close race in Georgia against Democratic Senator Raphael Warnock in a contest that could ultimately decide control of the Senate in November’s midterm elections. Here are the Republicans supporting Walker. Donald Trump Where he stands on abortion:...
