The 99-year-old, who died just two months before his 100th birthday, had been married to the Queen for 73 years, after the pair tied the knot on November 20 1947. Then styled as Lieutenant Philip Mountbatten, the 26-year-old renounced his Greek royal title and became a British citizen. The Queen’s father, King George VI, bestowed him the title of the Duke of Edinburgh. The father-of-four spent the next six decades in the public eye beside the Queen, before retiring from public duties in 2017, aged 96....

Stand News was started in 2014 as a nonprofit, and it was one of the last remaining major pro-democracy publications left on the city after investigations tied to state national security concerns resulted in the closure of Apple Daily, a pro-democracy paper that had been published since 1995. According to the Reuters report, Steve Li, the head of the Police National Security Department said the reason for the actions taken against Stand News was because it had “published news and commentary inciting hatred against authorities,” Reuters writes....

Bowling was arrested on Wednesday by a detective with the police department’s Crimes Against Children division. He was taken into custody while allegedly attempting to meet a decoy posing as a 15-year-old girl. Bowling and the decoy reportedly began talking on an online app in April.

“Fauci you are lying. You know it. Americans are dying and you are playing Russian roulette with their lives,” Immanuel wrote on Twitter early Wednesday morning. Fauci previously refuted Immanuel’s suggestion that hydroxychloroquine can treat individuals who contract the novel coronavirus, saying the evidence showed otherwise. “The overwhelming, prevailing clinical trials that have looked at the efficacy of hydroxychloroquine have indicated that it is not effective in coronavirus disease,” the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) director said during an interview with ABC’s Good Morning America....

Russian President Vladimir Putin launched his invasion on February 24, hoping his large military would bring him a quick victory. However, Ukraine responded with a stronger-than-anticipated defense effort, largely preventing Putin’s military from achieving any major goals in the more than six months of fighting. In recent weeks, Ukrainian troops have launched several counteroffensives to retake territory Russia captured in the early weeks of the war. A counteroffensive in the Kharkiv region, located alongside the eastern border with Russia, caught Moscow by surprise and allowed Ukraine to see major gains in cities such as Izyum, forcing Russian troops to retreat....

During a sermon shared to Youtube by Destiny Image and surfaced by Right Wing Watch, Murillo told followers in Pasadena, California that “the Lord wants the prophetic movement to take its stand in the arena.” “To barge open the doors of influence and say, ‘We belong here. Mayor, we belong here. Governor, we belong here. Congressman, we belong here.’ If you’re going to try to legislate immorality, we’re going to fight you with every last drop of the anointing of the almighty God,’” he continued....

In or out of court, it will take years to sort out the complex morass of liability issues. David Schiff, editor of trade newsletter Schiff’s Insurance Observer, rattled off a partial list of questions the industry is grappling with: “A plane crashes into the World Trade Center. Is United Airlines responsible? When the World Trade Center collapses and other buildings blocks away are damaged, can you sue the World Trade Center?...

For people with Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis, a type of ileostomy called an end ileostomy is what is typically done. This is when a part of the small intestine is brought through the abdomen, outside the body, to create what is called a stoma. An ostomy pouch is worn over the stoma to collect stool and is emptied several times a day when needed. Proctectomy Surgery Can Vastly Improve Quality of Life Proctectomy surgery may also be used to treat rectal cancer....

But the sport’s international governing body might just have given Mayweather the incentive he needs to return to the ring: another shot at Olympic gold. MORE: Portraits of Team USA athletes | LeBron James undecided about Rio AIBA president Dr. Ching-Kuo Wu told the Press Association on Wednesday that all professional boxers will now be eligible to compete in the Olympics — beginning with this summer’s Rio Games. “We want the best boxers to come to the Olympic Games,” Wu said....

Sarahjane Jones, an associate professor of patient safety at Staffordshire University’s School of Health and Social Care, told Twitter that she came across the objectionable bathroom at the Science and Industry Museum in Manchester, England, on Wednesday. “I just entered this ‘inclusive toilet’ […] to find a man using a urinal, which I would have had to talk past to use the cubical,” Jones wrote. Her post has racked up 10,000 likes and nearly 2,000 retweets....

For whatever reason, last Friday the president signed into law Prohibition II. You almost have to admire the government’s plucky refusal to heed history’s warnings about the probable futility of this adventure. This time the government is prohibiting Internet gambling by making it illegal for banks or credit-card companies to process payments to online gambling operations on a list the government will prepare. Last year about 12 million Americans wagered $6 billion online....

The first took place back in 2012 in Nashville, when Klinsmann was in attendance for the U.S. Under-23 national team’s failed attempt to qualify for the Olympics. The “Nightmare in Nashville” featured a talented U.S. team that failed to deliver with pressure on the line. The feeling in the wake of that failure was that far too many of that team’s players didn’t have enough experience, both in general game experience, and especially in big-game situations....

Before we even get to that final cut of 23 players heading to the World Cup, there will be the cut to decide which players even get to travel to Northern California in May for that fateful training camp. Klinsmann will call in anywhere from 26 to 28 players and when you start trying to come up with a roster for that camp, you start to realize just how deep the U....

When melanoma is on the skin, it can be effectively and permanently removed in most cases. Sometimes, however, it spreads (metastasizes) to other areas of the body, usually traveling first to the nearest lymph nodes in your armpit, neck, or groin. If your healthcare provider suspects that this has happened, a test called a sentinel node biopsy will be performed to identify and remove the lymph node to which the cancer is likely to have spread from the primary tumor....

A public information officer with the Colorado State Patrol told Newsweek they were unaware of any arrests made in connection with the protest. Between 40 and 50 protesters were estimated to be present at the time of the flag burning, the official said. City officials enhanced security around several government buildings in Denver ahead of the inauguration in anticipation of the day’s protests. The FBI also warned about plans for armed protests in “all 50 state capitols” this week, according to documents obtained by the Associated Press....

Vice President Mike Pence spoke to members of the megachurch in Dallas Sunday morning on the first stop of what was supposed to be a multi-state campaign effort. But a spike in coronavirus cases in Texas, Florida and Arizona caused Pence to cancel this week’s planned campaign stops. However, he did attend Pastor Robert Jeffress’ service at First Baptist Dallas. Protesters carrying signs in support of gay rights and Black Lives Matter peacefully stood behind barricades set up by police who guarded the church both on foot and on horseback....

Prosecutors say Enrique Tarrio, 38, created a “militant strategy” for the riots along with five other Proud Boys members calling themselves “the Ministry of Self Defense.” The strategy was meant to disrupt the congressional certification of Biden’s 2020 election victory. Tarrio also allegedly conspired with the Oath Keepers, a militia whose members have been charged with sedition in connection to the events of January 6. Tarrio’s plot, referred to as “1776 Returns” in an alleged text exchange between himself and the aforementioned Proud Boys, reportedly involved occupying “crucial buildings” in Washington, D....

However, fans were left disappointed as the PS5 seemed to sell out almost instantly, while others were met with error messages, and some customers even had their orders canceled.

Not only that, but there is a PS Direct restock confirmed for later this month and early Black Friday sales are already commencing.
