Hackett, 42, is one of the NFL’s youngest coaches. He comes from the Matt LaFleur coaching tree. He helped coach Aaron Rodgers to back-to-back MVP awards in 2020 and 2021. He was considered to be a great offensive mind who would fix that side of the ball in Denver after the Broncos had issues scoring last season. But Hackett hasn’t improved the offense yet. The Broncos have averaged a league-low 15 points per game and quarterback Russell Wilson hasn’t even looked like a Pro Bowl talent....

Initially, Bowser became the target for criticism regarding the decision. Republican Utah Senator Mike Lee called Bowser’s decision to remove the units from the hotel a “shameful, petty, discrediting decision” on Thursday. Bowser clarified her stance on the situation during a Friday news conference. “At no time did we intend or certainly would be able to affect evicting any guardsmen from any hotel,” Bowser said. Since the rooms the National Guard troops were staying in had been reserved by contract with the Marriott Marquis hotel to be used exclusively for soldiers helping the city with its coronavirus efforts, Bowser said either the National Guard units would have to pay for the rooms or refund the money....

Reptiles are a group of vertebrates with skin made of scales or body plates (or a combination of the two) that they frequently shed. They are cold-blooded, which means their internal body temperature and metabolism rely entirely on the temperature of their surroundings. The earliest reptiles in the fossil record are more than 300 million years old. Today, there are more than 10,000 species that have been added to the Reptile Database—including crocodiles, alligators, snakes, lizards, turtles and tortoises....

What is Sangria? Popular in Spanish-speaking countries, sangria, is a punch made with red or white wine mixed with sugar and plain or sparkling water. It is also flavored with citrus fruit and served chilled. The word “Sangria” is derived from the Latin for “blood” and the drink itself dates back to the Middle Ages. Unlike today, water was unhealthy to drink so people turned to fermented drinks as they carried a lower risk of causing illness....

Martinez admitted to accidentally shaving his lucky postseason beard when the guard came off his clipper. He then opted to clean the rest of it up rather than appear with uneven facial hair. In a sport known for its absurd levels of superstition, Martinez’s faux pas stood out, and after Nationals starter Max Scherzer allowing a two-run home run in the first inning, it looked like it would be a long night for Washington....

The liberty to worship is a fragile thing. That freedom must be defended and protected everywhere. We both know, from personal experience, the pressures of reconciling our faith with politics—and that is in Britain, where views on religion and belief are considered enlightened. That is why, last year, we both welcomed the bishop of Truro’s report for the U.K. Foreign and Commonwealth Office, outlining a new, robust foreign policy stance to counter Christian persecution and committing the British government to fight full-throttle for the freedom of Christians worldwide....

This article looks at several natural and alternative antihistamines that may help you control your seasonal allergies. How Do Antihistamines Work?

On September 5, 1942, U.S. Navy Petty Officer First Class Charles Jackson French navigated through shark-infested waters with a rope around his waist, towing 15 wounded sailors to safety from the USS Gregory after it was bombed by the Japanese navy near Guadalcanal in the Solomon Islands. At the time, French, of Omaha, Nebraska, was 22 years old and serving as a mess attendant. He died at the age of 37 on November 7, 1956 in San Diego....

The order comes 15 days after George Floyd’s death at the hands of Minneapolis police sparked protests and demonstrations around the country, and eventually around the world. “The order is meant to ensure unit cohesion, preserve good order and discipline, and uphold the Navy’s core values of honor, courage and commitment,” the Navy stated in an email from Chief of Naval Operations Adm. Mike Gilday’s office on Tuesday, according to the Navy Times....

The Navy has until the end of Wednesday to respond to the hearing officer’s recommendation to comply with an order from Governor David Ige to defuel the Navy-owned storage facility. The facility is close to Pearl Harbor and directly above a groundwater aquifer. The hearing officer said the fuel is “a metaphorical ticking time bomb” threatening drinking water. The Navy challenged the order, resulting in a hearing before the final ruling from the Department of Health....

This is a significant admittance because the game was knotted at 120-120 when Ellis attempted the shot. Once O'Neal had procured the rebound, he passed it off to the Warriors' Stephen Curry, who hit a game-winning jump shot with Mavericks guard Jose Calderon defending. The Warriors won, 122-120, on the shot from Curry, which was defended well. MORE: Steph-back winner: Curry knocks down late shot | Duncan is 50-win machine
