Nothing appears to have changed since last year. Neither the media’s determination on drilling into our heads that both Fernando Torres and Andy Carroll have been epic failures, nor them doing anything remarkable since their transfer as winter recruits for the 2010/11 season. However, the media circus has failed to notice the failure of City’s summer signing of 2011/12, Samir Nasri.Confession: Without watching most of the City games and accusing the former Arsenal man of tardiness is like the judge summoning a blind man as witness to a murder....

Today you don’t see many American flags in Iraq, except on soldiers’ uniforms. (From the very beginning of the invasion, in fact, U.S. commanders decided the Stars and Stripes might offend local sensibilities.) And last week a mob in the dusty Iraqi town of Fallujah gave us a new and horrifying image to remember this war by, murdering four American civilian security men, burning them, butchering them, dragging them through the streets, then hanging pieces of them from power lines and the girders of a bridge....

Recently a friend confided in us. She voted for Clinton in the 2016 election. Her husband voted for Trump. She was horrified when she heard the Dobbs decision. Her husband felt it was justified. They decided that they could not talk politics at the kitchen table, in bed or, in fact, anywhere at home. They felt embarrassed talking about these issues in front of their friends. The tension was palpable....

The 25-year-old right-hander leads the American League with a 0.914 WHIP. He has 66 strikeouts and only seven walks in 58 innings. Tanaka has had quality starts in all eight of his major league appearances, including Wednesday's four-hit shutout of the Mets. His 2.14 ERA ranks fourth in the American League. Then there's the 6-0 record. Tanaka famously went 24-0 for the Rakuten Golden Eagles last season, and although he did have a loss in the playoffs, he is unbeaten in regular-season play since Aug....

Symptoms vary depending on the type of arthritis, but usually include joint pain and stiffness. Joint pain can either occur symmetrically, affecting both sides of the body, or asymmetrically, causing unilateral symptoms, which only affect one side of your body. Types of Arthritis That Cause Unilateral Joint Pain Osteoarthritis Osteoarthritis (OA), also called degenerative joint disease, affects more than 30 million Americans. While many people associate osteoarthritis with the wear and tear that the body’s joints endure over time with aging, more than half of Americans affected by osteoarthritis are under the age of 65....

Ferry said on a conference call with minority owners that Deng “has a little African in him” and promoted stereotypes about African heritage. There was a debate about whether those words were Ferry’s own, but, at the end of his day, they still came out of his mouth. (UPDATE: The Atlanta Journal-Constitution has the audio.) MORE: George’s ill-fated tweet | Monroe urinated on himself during DWI | Wilkins wants to buy Hawks...

The night started with an epic tribute video in which the Hawks turned the court into a video screen and showed some great highlights from Wilkins’ career. MORE: Bird talks trash about ‘Nique statue | Anthony Davis shames Tyler Zeller | Terrence Ross’ ridiculous windmill | Classic Craig Sager suits The throwback jerseys they wore were really dope and a win over the Cavaliers didn’t hurt, either. ‘Nique night should be a regular occurence in Atlanta....

The Belgium international has been moved centrally by Antonio Conte at times this season, with the Blues prepared to function without an out-and-out striker. That was the case in their latest outing against Barcelona, with Hazard deployed down the middle, despite Chelsea having Alvaro Morata and Olivier Giroud on the bench. A versatile performer is prepared to do whatever job is asked of him, but the 27-year-old believes he poses more of a threat when dropped a little deeper and given license to roam across the field....

The Belgium international has made no secret of his admiration for Madrid and was tipped to join them after the World Cup, only to stay at Stamford Bridge. Hazard has impressed under Maurizio Sarri this season, but, with his Chelsea contract expiring in 2020, speculation over his future has refused to die down. The 28-year-old has now revealed he has settled on his plans, although he would not offer any further information....

Bloys explained, “It’s safe to say we’re working with a couple of writers to find the right tone and take. It’s definitely an area that could be very interesting and I think it would be interesting with a new voice. Quality is what’s going to guide us, so if we end up with scripts that we don’t feel are representative or are not at a high enough quality, we’re not going to do something just to do it....

At the bottom of the HBO website, viewers of the popular broadcaster can see an ad banner for HBO NOW which shows some of the platforms that the streaming service is available on. As well as a smartphone, a tablet, and an Apple MacBook, the banner also has a television with a Wii U controller. The image is meant to show that HBO shows can be streamed on games consoles, but some gamers have been scratching their heads as the Wii U is not one of the consoles that HBO NOW is available on....

Overall Findings: HBO Max vs. HBO Now HBO Max and HBO Now are available for cord-cutters and those who only want to stream their TV and movies. If you’re a current HBO Now subscriber, you can keep using that service—for now (more on that later in the article). If you’re a new subscriber, HBO Max is the only thing you can sign up for. And that’s not a bad thing! HBO Max has a huge library of content, including everything offered by HBO Now....

Are you ready? How about now?

Marcelo Bielsa’s side seemed to be heading for a frustrating draw on Tuesday, which would have seen them sit two points behind West Brom, who play Bristol City on Wednesday. However, Harrison popped up with the winner three minutes from time to send the Whites top of the pile. Below the top two sit Fulham, who made it three wins from three with a comfortable 3-0 win over sorry Derby County....

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was preparing to replace the former Leicester City defender during half time, but Maguire decided to soldier on and might have actually worsened the problem. The Englishman looked in pain at the end of the game and subsequent scans revealed Solskjaer’s worst nightmare – Maguire had a muscle tear at the top of his hip. The defender has since missed the League Cup semi-final against Manchester City in midweek, a game where Phil Jones deputized for him....

The Halloween Feast side quest is broken up into four parts, and deals with a “deadly threat” that interrupts the annual Hogwarts’ annual Halloween celebration. If players manage to complete all four parts of the side quest, they will earn some coins, as well as a new outfit that will apparently make them headless. Additionally, it seems as though Jam City is also running a sale on gems as part of the event, though it’s unclear if these sales extend to all players or only certain ones....
