The 30-year-old winger has failed to command a regular place in the Bucs starting line-up since the arrival of Serbian coach Milutin ‘Micho’ Sredojevic. A source close to Memela has told The Citizen that the Cape Town-born player has been made aware of the pending move. Memela reportedly feels that he can reach his full potential at Abafana Bes’thende as there will be less pressure. “Pirates’ technical team want a strong left winger, someone mobile and effective," the source said....

The 29-year-old has become an important part of Pep Guardiola’s side this season and he has been rewarded for his fine performances in recent months. He has started all but two of City’s games across the Premier League and Champions League, scoring five goals in his 23 appearances. He is the latest star whose deal City have moved to renew ahead of next summer’s World Cup in a bid to ward off interest from Europe’s top clubs....

Qurayshi served as the head of the core faction of ISIS known as the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL). However, the leaders of other factions of the terrorist organization remain at large across the middle east, south Asia, and both north and central Africa. Seth G. Jones, director of the International Security Program at the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) and an expert in counterterrorism, offered Newsweek insights on each of these existing factions....

The 28-year-old recalls wearing a three-piece suit that barely fit him–he couldn’t get the button across his stomach and was using the fourth notch on his belt–but he wanted to look presentable and meet everyone. Unbeknownst to Otis (real name Nikola Bogojević) a year and half later, he is a part of this year’s Money in the Bank ladder match, the biggest opportunity of his career to date. “The Money in the Bank match this Sunday, there’s going to be complete carnage,” Otis told Newsweek....

It has a viewing piece shaped like a funnel with a pointed end called a speculum, which enters the ear canal during an exam. A pneumatic otoscope is a specific type of otoscope with a rubber bulb that, when squeezed, provides a puff of air to the ear canal....

Numerous scientific studies have confirmed this judgment, and it’s now widely accepted in medical circles that acupuncture is an effective treatment for most types of pain. But Lei may be mistaken in one respect: the distinction between Western medicine and acupuncture is getting blurrier all the time. In countries around the world, acupuncture is becoming a bona fide treatment for pain–another tool, along with painkillers and anesthetics, in the doctor’s medical kit....

That won’t help Ukraine, and it won’t help ordinary Americans either. The only winners are for-profit military contractors. It’s tempting to think—as many in Congress and the military brass would have us believe—that the more money we give to the Pentagon, the safer the world will be. But it was never that simple. Colossal military spending didn’t prevent the Russian invasion, and more money won’t stop it. The U.S. alone already spends 12 times more on its military than Russia....

Hanks’s fussiness prompted a bit of eye-rolling. Producer Brian Grazer admits wanting to shout, “Push the f–ing button!” But from the start, Hanks had enlisted everyone on the set in a crusade to make “Apollo 13” a model of historical accuracy. “I felt strongly about us sticking to what really happened. There was enough suspense and drama in the real experience so there was no need to add anything extra....

Call him “Jim.” A young U.S. diplomat in Moscow, he doesn’t want his real name used because, he says, “our security guys work a lot like the KGB.” And the security men wouldn’t like it if they knew Jim’s secret: he occasionally dines in the homes of Soviet friends, without another diplomat present. Jim says there’s nothing conspiratorial about the dinners. Still, they violate U.S. security rules, which require diplomats to do their socializing in groups of at least two....

In recent weeks a serious viral disease has swept across Singapore. Since early October, more than 1,700 children–most under 5 years of age–have been diagnosed with a potentially deadly form of hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD). Three people are thought to have died from it. The source of the epidemic has confounded the government. Health officials ordered Singapore’s 440 kindergarten classes and 557 day-care centers closed in early October....

In the post, the Redditor NewOffice2404, aged 49, explains that his son Jake, 23, is following in the family tradition and studying to be a dentist, with the potential to earn up to $200,000 a year. The dad writes how he is paying for his son’s tuition and living expenses, which come to roughly $50,000 a year. He adds that his daughter Nikki, 17, “like her brother is a good student and will have a good chance of getting in to her dream school,” but like her brother, has a low chance of getting any scholarships....

City officials aware of the matter told Newsweek on Friday that kindergarten students coming into schools next fall will not have the program, which will be gradually eliminated. Those who are already enrolled in those classes will continue in the program, but they will be the last to graduate from it. The new program will be implemented in all elementary schools starting with kindergarten. This plan will serve 26 times more students than the current gifted and talented program, which admits 2,500 kindergarteners, city officials said....

First up is Clinton. Back in 1996, the then-First Lady organized a solo trip to war-torn Bosnia. It was a laudable effort; she toured the front lines in lieu of her husband and brought relief both comic (Sinbad) and musical (Sheryl Crow) to the troops. Recently, however, Clinton has taken to citing the trip as evidence of her vast foreign policy experience, telling audiences in Ohio and elsewhere that –a claim that Sinbad, for one, was quick to rebut....
