It is easy to look at the tearing down of a Confederate flag, the burning of a pharmacy or the dismantling of a statue, and question the motives—to see these as distractions from the “real” work of ending racism. However, America’s yet to be fully processed and acknowledged trauma sits neatly in every falsified textbook, in every classroom lecture and segregated housing community, in every hospital room death where infant mortality rate disparities loom large and still unchecked, and in every murder of a Black or brown man, womxn, Trans or non-binary individual at the hands of those sworn to serve and protect....
Indian hockey chief coach Paul van Ass, who has been claiming that he has been sacked, is not “returning”, Olympian Haribinder Singh, chairman of the Hockey India (HI)-formed special committee to review the men and women teams’ performance, revealed after a meeting here on Friday.

NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg confirmed the continuation on Friday during a conference. This marks a significant development in the rivalry between the organization and the country, as Russian President Vladimir Putin sought to end the expansion in exchange for eased tensions with Ukraine. That does not appear to be happening now due to Stoltenberg’s comments. “We will not compromise on core principles, including the right for every nation to decide its own path, including what kind of security arrangements it wants to be a part of,” the Secretary-General told reporters....
The military alliance has been forced to rethink the way it can deter the aggressive ambitions of Russian President Vladimir Putin in Europe, she reported. Moscow’s assault on Ukraine, which isn’t a NATO member, has added urgency to the organization’s long-standing but stalled defense plans. “Overnight the mentality changed,” an unnamed NATO officer told Haynes. “NATO now feels like it is electrified. You can feel the energy surging through the system....
Nattokinase is then extracted and put into capsules and tablets. It’s also available in a powdered form in Japan. While it has long been used in folk medicine to treat cardiovascular diseases and is generally considered safe and tolerable, nattokinase may cause side effects and can interact with certain medications. What Is Nattokinase Used For? In alternative medicine, nattokinase is believed to benefit people with heart and vascular diseases, in part by breaking down blood clots that can impede circulation....
In green circles, it’s open season on carmakers—now that the Supreme Court has ruled that the Feds have the right to regulate the gases that cause global warming. The ruling, which came Monday, hung over the auto show as nervous execs tried to explain how they would live with a ruling that they fought so hard against—a ruling that paves the way for much tougher gas-mileage regulations. “The Supreme Court ruling is the law,” said Mark Fields, chief of Ford Motor Co....

A fire raged for four days and effectively destroyed the amphibious assault ship in July 2020. The Bonhomme Richard was decommissioned after it was determined that repairing the substantial damage caused by the fire would have taken up to seven years and cost over $3 billion.

Niumatalolo interviewed to replace longtime Cougars coach Bronco Mendenhall — who left to become coach at Virginia — and was considered the likely hire for the position.

What would it take to prove that 23 is greater than 24? LeBron must make Los Angeles his last stop and retire as a Laker. He won’t need to score at least 60 points in his last NBA game. He just needs to be wearing a Laker jersey to have a crack at matching the colorful career of Kobe Bryant. Towards the tail-end of his present contract, James must be signing a multi-year extension with the Lakers to ensure that he would be remembered more as a Laker than a Heat or a Cavalier....

Some of them have already made the trade and made their roster better by getting rid of some of the players. Houston Rockets quietly got rid of the out of favor Carmelo Anthony to get some secondary rim protector in Kenneth Faried. Dallas Mavericks made the headline by making a blockbuster trade for Kristaps Porziņgis and securing their future....

There is no Kevin Durant, reigning MVP.
