Australia star Warner has endured a dismal series so far in England as he returns to Test cricket following a 12-month ban for his role in the team’s ball-tampering scandal. The 32-year-old has made just two, eight, three and five in his four Ashes innings as Smith, who was also suspended for a year, has done the heavy lifting to give the tourists a 1-0 series lead. But Smith will be missing at Headingley this week due to the concussion suffered when he took a Jofra Archer bouncer to the neck in the second match at Lord’s....

Asthma tends to become noticeable at a young age, though certain triggers can cause symptoms to crop up in adulthood as well. When a patient complains of shortness of breath, coughing fits, wheezing, or other symptoms, health providers run several tests to check for asthma and will do a thorough review of the patient’s medical history to spot key risk factors. If an individual does, in fact, have asthma, their provider can prescribe a quick-relief inhaler, long-acting corticosteroids, allergy medications or other therapeutics, based on your needs....

When Assassin’s Creed: Origins launched, it did so to some solid reviews, with many gamers believing the latest action-adventure title to be the best of the franchise. Of course, this notion alone supports the idea of Ubisoft giving the game a direct sequel, as rumors about the next title being set in Greece quickly spread. Now, if this leak proves to be accurate, it appears that these rumors are true....

Assassin’s Creed Odyssey is one of 2018’s most anticipated releases, not only because it’s another entry in a major triple-A series, but because it looks to update the series with new ideas and present a fresh experience for fans and newcomers alike. Among other noteworthy changes, Odyssey will be the first title in the Assassin’s Creed franchise to allow players to choose their character’s gender.

As Ukraine has proven to Russia that it will stand its ground and fight, President Vladimir Putin has ramped up his offensive arsenal, sending a 40-mile-long military convoy toward Kyiv, the capital city, and increasing its military fire aimed at residential areas in a bid to conquer the nation’s resilient cities. The increased fire power and onslaught of Russian forces could very well force more Ukrainians to consider leaving their country, and some may be pushed to do so in a hurry....

The United States District Court for the Southern District of New York ruled in favor of Michael Picard, who was arrested in 2017 for handing out flyers about jury nullification in front of the Bronx Hall of Justice. Represented by the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), Picard was charged with criminal contempt under a New York law that prohibited protests within 200 feet of the courthouse.

“There is no plan, or was no plan, by the Trump administration in terms of distribution, how to actually talk to the public about these vaccines and educate [people] about why they’re so important to their health,” Dr. Michael Osterholm, an infectious disease expert at the University of Minnesota who is a member of Biden’s coronavirus advisory board, told WBUR. “What we’re inheriting from the Trump administration is so much worse than we could have imagined,” said Jeff Zients, Biden’s COVID-19 coordinator, to reporters on Wednesday night....

So let us take a look at the major talking points from the first Test: Australian selectors’ faith pays off Much was made of Australia’s picks for the first Ashes Test.

Denly fell six runs shy of a hundred on day three of the fifth and final Ashes Test, edging Peter Siddle to Steve Smith in the slips. However, his 94 still proved crucial in helping England build a massive lead of 382 at The Oval as they look to draw the series after Australia retained the urn at Old Trafford.

Sure looks that way. Even before the film opens, Moore has three movie offers on the table, and she met with two directors last week. (Her primary hope is to find a romantic comedy that suits her.) What’s more, the strategy of her return has been the talk of the industry. By doing a film targeted to both young people and to women, she is introducing herself to teenagers who were in grade school when she split town and reinforcing her appeal with the female audience that made “Ghost” a smash....
