The Australian finally weighed in at 134.49 lbs (61.01 kg), under the 135 lb limit. Kambosos initially came in at 135.36 lbs (61.39 kg) on the scales, even stripping naked in a desperate attempt to make weight. Kambosos had two hours to lose the weight following his first attempt but appeared approximately an hour later for his second and final attempt. “Art of war baby - deception. Let them believe this was done,” Kambosos said after making weight....

George R. R. Martin’s involvement in Elden Ring was not only mentioned alongside its official announcement, but was a chief selling point for Elden Ring’s early promotional marketing. Martin is the famous author of the A Song of Ice and Fire series, which is known more widely as the popular TV series Game of Thrones, and as such his involvement in Elden Ring excited fans of his fantasy novels. Today, Martin has reminisced upon his contribution to FromSoftware’s latest action-RPG....

These opposing views are what make Soros such a fascinating character—at least that’s what filmmakers on both sides are hoping. Thus, beginning on Thanksgiving, two documentaries about the billionaire benefactor of the left and bogeyman of the right will be available to audiences seeking to reinforce their views, to challenge them or to simply understand what the controversy is all about. The sympathetic film, simply titled Soros, opened in 15 theaters across the nation on November 20, while the unsympathetic movie, Billionaire Radical: George Soros and the Scheme to Remake America, launches Thursday at SalemNow, the streaming service owned by conservative talk-radio firm, Salem Media Group....

Faced with A potential liberal rebellion in his party, Johnson declared a War on Poverty–and built his Great Society–while ramping up the war in Vietnam. By 1966, he was presiding over a vast expansion of federal power and spending on social problems-and over a war with 500,000 American troops. The long-term result was inflation, deficits and a country all too vulnerable to the Arab oil embargo of 1973. But the ’60s were a can-do-must-do-time, when anything seemed possible, and pieces were for picking up later....

Bush said he and his wife, former first lady Laura Bush, observed with “disbelief and dismay” the “scenes of mayhem” that broke out after members of Congress convened in the nation’s capital for a joint session to certify the results of the 2020 presidential election. As television networks across the country broadcast video and images depicting the day’s events, Bush attributed the violence to individuals “whose passions have been inflamed by falsehoods and false hopes....

The move followed the medical center’s decision to vaccinate teachers who have to return to in-person learning, even though it went against state guidelines. Brooke McDowell, the medical center’s practice administrator, told local Georgia television station WSB-TV on Friday that they “plan to appeal.” However, the medical center’s appeal was denied and a six-month suspension from new vaccines will be enforced until July 27, according to the news outlet....

He wasn’t a highly-regarded prospect heading into Saturday’s QB, RB and WR on-field drills, and some experts even have Conley unranked and projected to go undrafted. That may change after scouts watched him in Indy.

On many occasions, the referees overturn the call on the field and allow the player to stay, but on Saturday during Georgia's game against Vanderbilt, the referees made arguably the worst targeting call of the season.

The news that the former president was ailing immediately brought back images of Ford’s central role in one of America’s darkest periods. It was the summer of 1974, and things could hardly have been worse. Richard Nixon had at last lost his struggle to cling to power amid the Watergate scandal. On a Friday in August, a maudlin Nixon–who had won an epic re-election just two years before–said farewell to his White House staff and boarded Marine One on the South Lawn, the first leg of his journey west to exile in California....

Lionel Messi, who had missed the semi-final, opened the scoring followed by Luis Suarez grabbing his brace, helping Barcelona lift the trophy for the third time in their history. No other team has won more in the history of the competition since it was founded in 2000. And, of course, Pique had to tweet after the victory. Not that there was anything wrong with it, but the timing couldn’t have been more hurtful for rival Real Madrid supporters....

In a statement posted to Twitter, the Charité University Hospital in Berlin wrote “Alexei #Navalny is being treated in intensive care at #charitéberlin and remains in medically induced coma.” “Clinical findings indicate poisoning with a substance from the group of cholinesterase inhibitors. The specific substance involved remains unknown, and a further series of comprehensive testing has been initiated,” the hospital added in a subsequent tweet. According to their tweets, the effect of the poison, “was confirmed by multiple tests in independent laboratories....

Despite Germany having most of the possession, it was Goran Pandev who opened the scoring on the night as he tapped one in after some sloppy defending from the hosts right before half-time. Ilkay Gundogan equalized for his side from the penalty spot close to the hour mark. Later on Timo Werner passed up a beautiful opportunity to take the lead and was made to pay for it as North Macedonia scored one in the dying minutes of the game....

Former Deputy Supreme Allied Commander Europe (2011-2014) Sir Richard Shirreff said that the key issue at a United States-led meeting of Kyiv’s allies on Friday at the Ramstein Air Base in Germany will be on the provision of western tanks to fend off a Russian onslaught and launch counter-offensives. Poland and Finland are among the countries that have these German-made tanks and are willing to give them to Kyiv, which relies on far less advanced Soviet-era variants, primarily the T-72....

My first encounter with Genscher was shortly after he took office, in Bad Reichenhall at the southern tip of Bavaria. It was in June 1974, in the waning weeks of Richard Nixon’s presidency. And though in those early days Genscher’s grasp of foreign policy could be most charitably described as minimal, he conducted himself with extraordinary aplomb at a time of great unease in the Western Alliance. He announced a “gentleman’s agreement” to ease tensions between the United States and what was then the Common Market, and proved as good as his word....

Zegras’ four assists powered the Americans to their first victory, a 6-3 win over the Germans at the 2020 IIHF World Juniors just one day after the team fell to top rival Canada. Pinto (Ottawa Senators) netted his third goal of the tourney along with two assists and Wolf, a Calgary Flames prospect, made 17 saves including some big ones late in the game. Germany put up a fight in its first world juniors game at the top level since they were relegated to Division 1A 2015....

On Tuesday, German Energy Minister Robert Habeck said that although he didn’t want to speculate on the leaks in Nord Stream 1 and 2, which run from Russia to Germany under the Baltic Sea, other infrastructure, like nuclear plants, could be subject to attacks. “Of course, critical infrastructure is a potential target. But we have known that not just since yesterday,” Habeck said at a press conference. “This has been the basis of the work for months....

They beat Nigeria 1-0 in the final at Montreal’s Olympic Stadium with Lena Petermann scoring the solitary goal in extra time. This is the third time they have won the trophy, equalling the United States of America who also won it three times. The player of the match was goalkeeper Meike Kamper who kept the Germans in the game despite being outplayed for majority of the game. Nigeria dominate game but fail to convert chances Nigeria had dominated proceedings, always creating chances but failing to convert them....
