It was just over 24 hours ago that they’d finally decided on a new manager - Mridul Banerjee - to lead them in the post Trevor Morgan era in the I-League, after the latter had tendered his resignation to the club’s management when their season was rescinded to dust with yet another defeat to DSK Shivajians. It has now emerged, however, that the former Mohun Bagan assistant coach may not even take the reins at the Red and Golds this season....

Subsequently, the AIFF acknowledged of receiving a letter from Bajaj and promised that investigations were in full swing. “We have received a letter from Minerva Punjab Football Club highlighting approach to their players and officials from other participating teams in the I-League. The case is presently being handled by AIFF Integrity officer (Javed Siraj) who is doing a thorough investigation into the matter and necessary action will be taken as per the regulations,” read the official statement from the Indian FA....

Starting the season with a draw and a defeat in Kolkata derby, Khalid Jamil’s men were under a lot of pressure. The thumping win over Lajong eased the situation a bit, but Neroca FC’s win on Friday will makes it a must win match for the Kolkata giants who are currently at the fifth position in the league table. Ahead of the important clash, coach Khalid Jamil addressed the media....

Bobby Nongbet was unsure if skipper Samuel Lalmuanpuia could make it to the starting XI before the matchday, as he had suffered an injury in his right thigh. But the 19-year-old cleared a fitness test before the match to start for Lajong. Nongbet made a single change to the XI that faced NEROCA at home as Redeem Tlang was relegated to the bench in favour of Ivorian Abdoulaye Koffi. Indian Arrows started the game with pace and gusto, seeing more of the ball and using it to unleash a flurry of attacks....

He’s right. As a Black man who spent two and a half years in federal prison, I have personally experienced the injustice in our criminal justice system. But as the political divide over Kyle Rittenhouse demonstrates, we seem less intent on effectively addressing our problems and more concerned with creating narratives that reinforce our preconceived views. You can see this in the response to the police shooting that sparked the protests that led to Rittenhouse’s trial: the shooting of Jacob Blake....

The Belgium international has made the Ballon d’Or shortlist in three of the past four years but, despite winning the PFA Players’ Player of the Year in 2014-15, he has never finished higher than eighth in the voting, in 2015. It has been an award dominated by Lionel Messi and Ronaldo for over a decade, as one of the two has won the Ballon d’Or every season since Kaka took home the trophy in 2007....

Green fouled out with two points, four rebounds, three assists and two turnovers in just under 35 minutes of action, an underwhelming showing from a key contributor. As pointed out by The Sporting News’ Micah Adams, Green is the first player in NBA Finals history to play at least 34 minutes and foul out with fewer than five points, five rebounds and five assists, making his performance historically bad for this stage....

On a chilly morning in May 2019, after giving a talk at the American Museum of Natural History, I went with my friends Nadir Souirgi and Jeffrey Ward to check out the park, one of the most birded public spaces in the world. It didn’t take long for the three of us to fall into the easy rhythm of walking, watching and calling out bird IDs. “I heard an evening grosbeak call!...

Rooney will again be absent for United’s Europa League clash with Saint-Etienne on Wednesday through injury, but his involvement has been limited since Mourinho arrived at Old Trafford at the end of May. While the England international, who has been linked with a move to China, has started just eight Premier League games this term, the United manager is adamant that it would be Rooney’s choice if he were to leave....

These types of situations are rarely intentional, though medical providers are human and mistakes can be made. While you can’t eliminate the risk of an iatrogenic event, there are things you can do to reduce your risk. Examples of Iatrogenic Events “Iatrogenic” comes from the Greek language. “Iatros” means doctor or healer and “gennan” means “as a result.” Therefore, the word literally means “as a result of a doctor.”...

United take on Ajax next Wednesday in a season-defining contest that could see them land a second major trophy of the season and earn a place in next season’s Champions League. This season’s heavy fixture burden, often lamented by Mourinho, has left the club without first-team stars including Ibrahimovic, whose contract is set to expire. Mourinho: Ajax should not be in EL final But the manager insists the injured quartet will all travel to Stockholm with the rest of the squad as he hailed United’s team spirit....

Jose Mourinho’s men appeared to be on their way to a 1-0 win over Everton last week, only for Leighton Baines to net an 89th-minute penalty and frustrate United. Kane proves United are no longer a big draw United previously threw away a winning position against Arsenal in similar fashion and Ibrahimovic stressed they cannot afford to keep allowing points to slip away if they are to battle for top honours....

The 36-year-old frontman slipped into international retirement after Euro 2016. He played no part in Sweden’s latest qualification campaign, which saw them stun Italy in a two-legged play-off, but has hinted at returning to the fold in Russia this summer. Ibrahimovic has stated on a regular basis that nobody can prevent him from gracing the tournament if he wishes to do so, but no discussions have been held with Andersson....

If that occurs, over-the-counter (OTC) laxatives may provide some relief. Persistent cases may require a prescription constipation medication that increases fluid in the intestines and stimulates bowel movements. This article lists various CIC and IBS-C medications, details who they are appropriate for, and discusses how each of them work to get things moving again. OTC Constipation Medications OTC remedies work well for many people with constipation due to CIC or IBS-C....

The crash took place around 5:45 a.m. CDT, according to the city’s fire department, which shared details about the accident and those involved in several tweets that were posted over the course of two hours. In its final update, the department confirmed that only minor injuries were sustained by all civilians requiring ambulance transport except for one, who appeared to be in “good condition.” All those who suffered lesser injuries were evaluated on-site....

On Tuesday, ICE published an acquisition form for the procurement of “hyper-realistic training devices” for a new training facility for its expanding Special Response Team (SRT) program on the Federal Business Opportunities (FBO) website. The immigration agency had sought to redact the location of the new training facility, but failed to do so properly. The agency, which has made this kind of mistake previously, appears to have a systemic information-security problem....

“Investigations like these provide firsthand evidence of how people exploit the non-immigrant student visa system,” Vance Callender, special agent in charge of the Detroit office of ICE’s Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) told the Detroit Free Press on December 6. About 250 students enrolled at the University of Farmington, a fake institution created by federal agents in 2015, have been arrested since January on charges of immigration and visa fraud, the Free Press reported....

It was a bright start with both teams looking to get onto the front foot. The Burkinabe had a glorious chance to open the scoring but Prejuce Nakoulma scuffed his effort high and wide. They continued to grow in confidence and Bertrand Traore almost grabbed the opener. But the Chelsea Academy graduate’s shot could only skim the top of the crossbar. As the half time whistle approached it was the Lions of Carthage who took aim for the elusive goal but the ball went agonisingly wide off the far post....

Crisis care standards, activated in Idaho this month amid a COVID-19 surge, are designed as guidelines to direct scarce resources, like ventilators, to the patients who are most likely to survive. Justice in Aging claims that Idaho’s crisis standards are ageist because it uses a patient’s age as a tiebreaker if two similar patients need the same resources. “Older adults are facing serious risk of discrimination, resulting in death,” because of Idaho’s crisis standards, Justice for Aging attorneys wrote in their complaint letter....
