While the House is not scheduled to be in session Jan. 6, 2022, Pelosi asked colleagues to join her for events in commemoration of the riot at the Capitol in a message on Thursday. The events will include members gathering on the House floor at noon for a prayer, a pledge and a moment of silence for those who died after a group of former President Donald Trump’s supporters stormed the building in an ill-fated attempt to stop Congress from certifying President Joe Biden’s 2020 election win....

The Ohio Republican is reportedly among five GOP representatives picked by House minority leader Kevin McCarthy to serve on the special committee that from next week will start examining the events of the insurrection. McCarthy was able to name committee members in consultation with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, meaning she could could veto his selections.

Cavani finished a well-worked team move involving Julian Draxler and Lucas Moura in the 21st minute of Saturday’s encounter to open the scoring at the Stade de la Beaujoire. And the Uruguay striker made it 20 league goals for the campaign, the first time he has achieved such a feat for PSG, with a superb direct free-kick in the second half. Unai Emery’s men were not always at their best against a stubborn Nantes side - who had won their previous four league games without conceding - and Emiliano Sala should have punished a Thomas Meunier error in the eighth minute....

As a backup to Walker, Napier was the spark plug off the bench, the relentless penetrator that kept opponents reeling. Although Napier was a necessary contributor, Walker was the controlling force on that 2011 Huskies team. Napier soaked up as much as he could, studying his moves and his leadership. Their relationship is that of big and little brother, with Walker leading the way with an incredible run through the Big East Tournament in 2011....

The three planets are among the smallest and closest exoplanets found to date, according to a team of astronomers led by Maximilian Günther, from MIT’s Kavli Institute for Astrophysics and Space Research. The star system, dubbed TOI-270 by the team, is intriguing for several reasons. For starters, unlike our own solar system, the three planets are not too dissimilar from each other when it comes to size, according to a study describing the findings, published in the journal Nature Astronomy....

On Thursday, the space agency’s Earth Observatory published two photographs of the Valdecañas Reservoir in Spain that were captured by an instrument known as the Operational Land Imager on the Landsat 8 satellite. The first—which shows the reservoir at high water levels—was taken on July 24, 2013, while the second was snapped on July 25, 2019, when water levels were much lower after a drought in Spain. In the second photo, the receding waters have exposed the stone monument (or megalith)—known as the Dolmen of Guadalperal—which has been submerged underwater since 1963, when the Spanish government under the dictatorship of Francisco Franco decided to build the reservoir....

It looked as if the race would come down to Chase Elliott and Joey Logano in the final five laps, but with three laps to go, Elliott lost control on the inside, spinning toward the outside and collecting Logano. That opened up room for Keselowski to grab the win. It was a tough finish for Elliott, who won the race’s first two stages and had the lead on the final restart....

Joe Gibbs Racing’s Christopher Bell had already taken the checkered flag, sealing his spot in Phoenix. Hamlin looked certain to join him. At least until Chastain made a dart to the outside, scraping his car along the wall. With sparks emanating from his tattered right side, it wasn’t yet clear what he had done. Until he zoomed past Hamlin. Chastain took fifth in the race at the last moment, keeping his championship dreams alive in the most dramatic of fashions....

The driver of the No. 22 car secured a victory on the egg-shaped track back in May, showcasing a bit of bravado — sprinkled with a dash of pettiness — to outlast William Byron and the rest of the field. Logano started on the pole in the spring race back, taking advantage of a big run in qualifying for the Goodyear 400. Four months later, not much has changed for Logano, at least not at Darlington....
