On a weekly basis, I will be profiling those starting pitchers who are scheduled to take the mound in the upcoming scoring period. This is done to help you determine who to place try to grab from your league’s free agent pool and/or who you should target as a player to send your FAAB funds on. Note that all the streaming options listed below are owned in less than 50 percent of leagues and thus could be available on your waiver wire....
“I didn’t even think we’d make it this far,” admits Stefani, who is sitting in the living room of her Hollywood Hills home with bassist and former boyfriend Tony Kanal. Her other bandmates, guitarist Tom Dumont and drummer Adrian Young, are driving back to their homes in Orange County after a daylong photo session. “We surprised everyone, including ourselves.” Thanks to her bombshell-meets-goofball demeanor, standout sense of style (she designs all her own clothes) and quavering, throaty vocals, the 32-year-old Stefani has become one of pop’s most recognizable personalities....
Chelsea legend Lampard announces his retirement There is no debating that their teams of the past 15 years or so are the best ones in their history. There is no doubt that all their best players come from this period too. This is a very modern club with a very contemporary list of all-time greats but one player stands head and shoulders above them all. Frank Lampard is Chelsea’s greatest-ever player and probably the best English player of all time too....
Interestingly, Woods’ last major tournament win — the 2008 U.S. Open — came at Torrey Pines, where he also won the Farmers in 1999, 2003, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008 and 2013. The Farmers Insurance Open is a full-field PGA Tour event, with a cut after 36 holes. The 14-time major winner traditionally begins his golf year with the tournament since it’s right in his wheelhouse. He’s looking to pick up where he left off in 2018 following a victory at the Tour Championship — his first PGA Tour win in more than five years....
The whaling season in the Faroe Islands begins in the summer months and is a tradition that dates back around 1,200 years. Pilot whales are killed each year for their blubber and meat. However, not all Faroese people approve of the hunt. Photographs captured by local citizen and underwater photographer, Ingi Sørensen, show the first hunt of the season taking place on May 7. While some Faroese people remain adamant that the practice should remain as a homage to traditional Faroese culture, Sørensen openly condemns the hunt, and is not alone....
To use them, start at the base of the head and move your way up, clipping the hair in; all the extensions are connected to a single cap, so you can’t lose them. (We were able to attach this piece in less than three minutes.) Other lines sell extensions in long strands that you wear individually, instead of as a bunch, for those who want more flexibility about where to add volume....
Never turn on any electrical appliances that may have been damaged by the flooding because you might get shocked or cause an electrical fire. Use battery-powered flashlights or flood lights to help you see what you’re doing while you dry out your basement. Use a tape measure or another measuring tool to measure the height of the flood waters inside and outside if you aren’t sure which level is higher. If you pump out the water in your basement too fast before the water level outside your home lowers, the weight of the water outside pressing against your basement’s walls can damage them....
Why did you make this film? Darwinism is a brilliant theory, but to say it has all the answers would not be truthful or sensible. And today’s students aren’t learning that. And academia has a role in that? There are a number of scientists and academics who’ve been fired, denied tenure, lost tenure or lost grants because they even suggested the possibility of intelligent design. The most egregious is Richard Sternberg at the Smithsonian, the editor of a magazine that published a peer-reviewed paper about ID....
Why is it important for you to speak up? It’s a really terrifying time to be young. The world ahead doesn’t look very promising. Do people at the shows agree? We have so much baggage from history we are forced to carry, and it’s really hard to mend these things that have been developing for years. I wish you could just take people under 30 and erase their memories and start from scratch....
Initially, I was hoping the XF690 Maxs would be a mix of power and functionality—a beauty and brains type of situation. After spending plenty of miles with the electric bike, however, it’s definitely better suited to spend its time on the trail rather than in the back of a vehicle car traveling. This is not the e-bike you’re looking for if your No. 1 priority is portability and commuting. But if that’s secondary to a compelling ride that can tackle any obstacle, the Cyrusher XF690 Maxs is certainly worth considering....
What’s exciting to see in “Shock of the Old” isn’t just Dresser’s visionary idea of bringing good design to the Industrial Revolution, but the resulting democratization of quality. Dresser was from a humble background, but his talent landed him in a government-run design school at the age of 13. He also studied botany–which is evident in the intricate abstractions of natural forms in his carpets, vases, wallpaper and lacy iron furniture....
The 7-year-old boy was walking in his neighborhood with his brother on Sunday when he was mauled by at least one dog, Marion County Sheriff’s Office, South Carolina, said in a Facebook post. The brother managed to escape. The sheriff’s office, coroner, animal control and the South Carolina Law Enforcement Division are investigating the boy’s death. Sheriff Brian Wallace told ABC affiliate WPDE on Monday that officials were actively seeking the dogs and their possible owner....
Luis Andres Bermúdez, 26, was identified by Miami-Dade Police as one of the people who lost their life after part of Champlain Towers collapsed in the early hours of June 24. “Papa God decided that he wanted one more angel in Heaven,” the Puerto Rican man’s father, who is also named Luis Bermúdez, wrote on Facebook in Spanish. “I still don’t believe it. I LOVE you and will love you forever....
“We are fixin’ to shock Oklahoma,” said John Wyatt in the video, as they proceeded to fix a LGBTQ+ ally flag to the front of their house. Filmed to the tune of “Born This Way” by Lady Gaga, the video has amassed over one million views since its June 5 upload, with many applauding the gesture. John Wyatt’s son, Caden, 16, came out in 2020, and his father has been “studying and researching” the LGBTQ+ community since....
Dennis and Kem Parada, the owners of Finders Keepers, filed a lawsuit against the Justice Department because they have not handed over documents yet regarding a search the FBI did for the treasure at a dig site they claimed they found first. The duo searched for years to find legendary Union gold lost or stolen in 1863 on its way to the U.S. Mint in Philadelphia. Finally, they believe they found the site where the treasure was buried after their tools detected a large mass underneath them in the woods of northwestern Pennsylvania....
The Lincoln Police Department (LPD) was alerted at 4:06 p.m. on Monday, October 3, to reports of an unconscious man who had appeared to have been stabbed at an apartment near South 40th Street and Highway 2. When officers arrived, they found Jesse Gilmer, 70, dead inside the apartment with injuries consistent with having been attacked by someone with “a bladed instrument.” According to Lincoln officials, so far this year there have been four homicides in the city and there were eight in total last year....

“They were hoping, the federal government was hoping, they could sucker 90 percent of the population into getting vaccinated,” Berenson said at CPAC, eliciting uproarious applause from the conservative audience. CNN host Jake Tapper asked Fauci to respond to the conservative crowd cheering on Berenson’s remarks during Sunday morning’s State of the Union program. Berenson’s comments tapped into the opposition to government public health officials that was apparent under former President Donald Trump....
Speaking on the podcast Science Vs, the chief medical advisor to the president discussed the vaccines that are currently in circulation to help curve the spread. At the beginning of the program, host Wendy Zukerman said that the U.S. was “weirdly prepared” for the outbreak, as it already had a massive stockpile of a smallpox vaccine— called ACAM2000—ready to go. Monkeypox is caused by the same family of viruses that caused smallpox—a much more serious disease that was eradicated in 1980....
