Yet the FBI obtained four warrants to surveil the former Trump campaign adviser under the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, which requires probable cause that the target is an “agent of a foreign power,” as part of its investigation into Russian election interference. Now, the agency is reeling from Inspector General Michael Horowitz’s report last week documenting 17 “significant errors and omissions” in the process and a judge’s order on Tuesday for immediate reform proposals....

They traded Dickerson to Tampa to make initial room for Parra, who proceeded to have a career-low .671 OPS — in Colorado. Despite Parra’s most attractive attribute as a free agent being outfield defense, he ended up spending a good chunk of time at first base once the Rockies brought Dahl up in July. It was the first time the 29-year-old had played first base in his career. So by the end of the season, the Rockies’ second-highest paid player was an inexperienced, 5-11 first baseman who was well below average offensively for the position....

Let’s set Sunday’s scene: Colby Rasmus is on first base with Tyler White up to bat for the Astros in the bottom of the fifth inning. White hits a short popup at Kinsler, but instead of making the catch for an easy out Kinsler allows the ball to drop at his feet and goes for the force play at second base.

This is the part where we could start talking about the good of Professor X/Russell WIlson, or the evil of Magneto/Peyton Manning, or make some obscure Gandalf reference, but you haven't even read this part and you're already making the same joke on Twitter.

Many people who live with IBD find a treatment that helps stop the inflammation and the symptoms. However, for some, the disease can turn out to be quite severe and difficult to treat. This is especially true when there are extra-intestinal symptoms (outside the digestive tract) or they have a diagnosis of an associated condition. These complications can limit life activities and make keeping a job difficult. In those cases, it may make sense to apply for disability benefits....

Your period may be impacted when your IBD is more active and when you have more inflammation. Why Periods Are Important In IBD IBD tends to be a disease of young people, with most affected individuals being diagnosed between the ages of 15 and 35 (a second, smaller group are diagnosed later in life). This means that many females may be diagnosed around the time of their first menstrual period or soon after....

The goal came in Ibrahimovic’s debut, a match widely seen as one of the most thrilling regular season clashes in MLS history. In the first ever match between the LA Galaxy and LAFC, Ibrahimovic came off the bench in the second half with his side down a goal. He proceeded to smash a 40-yard missile over goalkeeper Tyler Miller to tie the score at 3-3, providing a finish that has now been named as the year’s best....

“We both have the same concerns,” Watkins said. “The concern that many of us have is that Black people are not getting the attention that we deserve, that the Black community is being ignored, that the Democratic party has been pretty much engaged in what’s called ‘benign neglect.’” Watkins then singled in on the claim that Biden formerly referred to Black Americans as “superpredators.” (This has apparently been debunked, though, as the term originated with Hillary Clinton, not Biden....

In a statement shared with Newsweek, an ICE spokesperson said the agency’s detained population nationwide has declined by nearly 9,000 people. As of February 29, they said, ICE had 38,537 immigrant detainees held under the agency’s custody. By April 25, however, that number had declined to 29,675, shrinking more than 20 percent. Part of the decline, ICE said, is due to the agency releasing hundreds of detainees as it continues to face lawsuits and subsequent court orders demanding that it reduce populations at its detention facilities to help prevent the spread of coronavirus....

According to Never Again Action, the immigration advocacy group that launched the service, at least one ICE agent has already come forward to ask for help quitting their job and finding a new one. “We’ve already had one ICE agent reach out to us,” the group, which was organized by Jewish community members in the U.S. determined to “never let anything like the Holocaust happen again,” said in a tweet on Monday....

Larsen D sits to the south of the Larsen C ice shelf, which made headlines in 2017 when an enormous iceberg broke away. Ice shelves form from ice flowing off the land that accumulates snow on top. They can be hundreds of meters thick. They help hold back the ice on land—so if an ice shelf disappears, the ice on the land would start flowing faster. Professor Adrian Luckman, a glaciologist at the U....

The lagoon was created entirely by accident. In the 1970s, the Svartsengi geothermal plant began to discharge water rich in salt, algae and silica, which turned into a kind of caulk. A pool formed in the featureless lava fields in western Iceland, and when locals jumped in, they found that it cleared up symptoms of skin ailments like psoriasis. Today, the Blue Lagoon sports a 15-room clinic and a spa that attracts 407,000 tourists annually....

Gudmundsson’s great grandfather, also named Albert, played for Rangers, Arsenal and AC Milan in the 1940s, but the 20-year-old opted to move to Dutch side Heerenveen instead before earning a move to PSV rather than try his luck at the Emirates side. The youngster had trials with the Gunners and Liverpool four years ago, but preferred a move to Netherlands and he has now revealed why he took the challenging decision to be patient – even if he does let himself dream of playing for Barcelona one....

Given that Ichiro hit .387 in his last year in Japan, then .350 as he won the American League MVP in his first season on this side of the Pacific, one of baseball’s eternal mysteries will be what kind of numbers Ichiro would have had in a career spent entirely in American baseball. To focus on the unknown, though, is to miss out on the known, which is incredible....

The Idaho coach went a little crazy and gave assistant coach Chris Helbling a stern talking to before throwing his binder. Come on, not the binder. Verlin then ejected his assistant because he figured he could successfully coach without him. Sometimes college coaches make such a scene that they have to commit and finish it through. Even if after Verlin threw the binder and felt that wasn’t a good idea, at that point it’s a little late....

Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin were found dead in an off-campus rental house in Moscow on November 13. The three women were roommates and Chapin, Kernodle’s boyfriend, was visiting. Autopsies determined the four were stabbed to death, likely with a fixed-blade knife. The Moscow Police Department said the murder weapon has not been located and that investigators checked with local businesses to determine if a fixed-blade knife had recently been purchased....

For weeks, Fernandez and officials of a neighborhood school board in a working-class area of Queens have been trading angry accusations over “Children of the Rainbow,” a 443-page multicultural curriculum. It includes a section entitled “Fostering Positive Attitudes Toward Sexuality” in which first-grade teachers are urged to “include references to lesbians/gay people in all curricular areas.” The suggested reading list features such titles as “Heather Has Two Mommies,” about a little girl, her mother and her mother’s lesbian lover....

If Putin takes complete control of Ukraine in the near future, as is widely predicted, he’s likely to want a leader who will implement that plan. As it stands, Russian-born Ukrainian oligarch Viktor Medvedchuk looks to be Putin’s likely choice to serve as the country’s new head of state. Medvedchuk, a man so close to Putin that he chose the Russian president to be godfather to his daughter, has long been a supporter of pro-Russian separatist forces in eastern Ukraine....

It’s not simply its redesigned exterior (and new standard socket, which accommodates E26 and E27 bulbs), but the table lamp has an updated “room-filling” sound, according to Sonos. After listening to the new Symfonisk table lamp in my house, I agree. It does sound better. This 2021 version table lamp with a less contrived look and better sound is overall a winner as long as you personally like its physical design....
