The Ravens (6-5) get their star quarterback just in time for the rare Tuesday night matchup with the Cowboys (3-8) to wrap up Week 13. Jackson was forced to miss Baltimore’s Week 12 game in Pittsburgh due to COVID-19, pressing Robert Griffin III and then Trace McSorley into action in a loss. With the Ravens on the outside looking in of the AFC playoff picture, Jackson’s return could be crucial to whether Baltimore’s final five games can get the Ravens into the postseason....

However, the Browns suffered a tough setback as star running back Nick Chubb will likely miss Week 10 action against the New England Patriots after testing positive for COVID-19, according to ESPN.

On Monday, the U.S. Treasury Department stopped Russia from paying its bondholders more than $600 million from reserves the country holds in U.S.-based banks in a move that could force Russia to dip into dollar assets held at home or try to service its debt in rubles. The Treasury had frozen the Central Bank of Russia’s access to around $300 billion of the country’s total reserves of about $640 billion but had been allowing the Russian government to use U....

“You suffer,” he told Sporting News. “You’re in pain. It hurts.” MORE: Real or fake? Evaluating early-season trends The details of the negotiation between O’Neal, who had led the Magic to the East finals the previous season, have been pored over. Orlando opened the haggling by trying to play the market, gauging the few options that O’Neal had in free agency rather than opening with its best offer. Coming onto the stage late, Jerry West and the Lakers were able to carve out enough cap room to make a seven-year, $121 million offer to O’Neal, and Orlando scrambled to put together a better package, going as high as $130 million over seven years....

It’s been eight months since Congress passed the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security (CARES) Act, but the unity that made that relief possible has been absent from Capitol Hill. Many Senate Republicans are backing a smaller, targeted package, while Democrats have long wanted a more substantive, higher price tag package. Graham, who just won a hard-fought election, considers another stimulus package a top priority, telling WCNC his “number one goal” is “another stimulus package until we get a vaccine....

Hollow Knight: Silksong should let Hornet face enemies whose size does matter in terms of how the encounter pans out. Bosses being larger than the players’ characters is not simply a trope, it is an implicit way of showing power and strength, and this is something that a lot of games do - sometimes even inadvertently. The scale comparison between Hollow Knight and Little Nightmares makes the games quite different, and in the former rarely do players have to fight bosses who are so much bigger than them....

But the clock is not omnipotent. Yes, it will get a lot of attention around the globe on New Year’s Eve, 1999, but that is the exception. Many cultures still march to different drummers. Time seems to move faster in Frankfurt than in San Salvador. Monks in Burma know it is time to get up when there is enough light to see the veins in their hands, and showing up on time is cause for ridicule in Mexico....

Since WrestleMania 35 has been done and dusted, WWE has been suffering from bad ratings. While it isn’t uncommon for the post-WrestleMania season to see things cool off, things appear to have cooled off too much in terms of ratings. For a number of weeks, WWE has experienced record low ratings for a non-holiday, pre-football season shows. It does make you wonder why this could be the case? WWE usually does suffer a decline in ratings at this time of year, yet this year appears to be the worst year affected for the company....

But there is one important question to be asked at this juncture before any instinctive decision is taken: are we looking at the result of this current series Down Under or are we looking at building a future team for the nation? Since both of these cannot be achieved simultaneously, it has to be given serious thought. Should India field a stronger side (i.e. on paper at least) in the coming two Tests or should they drop a senior member and give his place to a newcomer?...

Cryptocurrency ATMs—like their name suggests—allow you to do just that. There are over 19,000 cryptocurrency ATMs spread across the world. You can use one to buy and sell digital currencies at a physical kiosk—drastically reducing the difficulty of owning and acquiring these assets. How Does a Bitcoin ATM Work? Even though they share a name, Bitcoin ATMs are nowhere near the same as traditional, bank-operated ATMs that have been around us for decades....

Despite the show of faith from interim boss Gareth Southgate, however, the 30-year-old did not do a great deal to change the minds of those who believe he is past his best at Wembley. Goals from Daniel Sturridge and Dele Alli ensured England moved into a commanding position but Rooney’s performance still drew the ire of many Three Lions fans on Twitter.

The taste of squid ink isn’t very overpowering when it’s used in recipes, so it adds a subtle, delicious, briny layer to whatever dish it’s in. Cuttlefish ink tastes very similar to squid ink and is a shade of very dark brown rather than bluish-black. The two are interchangeable in recipes. Avoid eating squid ink if you have a seafood or shellfish allergy. Most of the studies about squid ink benefits have been performed in test tubes or in animals....

Eminem sounded off on a number of issues bothering him, starting with his disdain for the New Orleans Saints quarterback. “Got a lil’ green (Yeah), but I don’t do weed (Nope)/Purp nor lean (Nah), that’s Tunechi (Yeah)/That’s New Orleans (What?), f**k Drew Brees (Yeah),” Eminem rapped. Eminem’s stance on Brees likely stems from the football player’s recent comments regarding other players who protest by kneeling during the national anthem. At the height of nationwide protests spawned by the killing of George Floyd by a white police officer in Minnesota in May, Brees said during an interview that he would “will never agree with anybody disrespecting the flag of the United States of America or our country,” despite the fact that players’ kneeling began as means to protest police brutality and the killing of Black men by law enforcement....

Scheduled to take place between September 23-25, the event will be the last to be hosted at the Sochi Autodrome, before a planned move to a newly upgraded Igora Drive outside of the Russia’s capital, Moscow. Meanwhile, if the race were to be canceled, F1 would have plenty of time to find an alternate venue to host a replacement event. The sport’s bosses have an impressive record of readying alternative venues in cases of canceled races, as they were forced to do over the last two years, following the impact of the pandemic....

River is the daughter of Reina Mae Nasino, a 23-year-old human rights worker and political activist. Reina Mae was working for the urban poverty group Kadamay at the time of her arrest in November 2019. Police officers arrested Reina Mae and two others after a regional trial court issued a slew of warrants in the Manila metro area last year.
