The singer is best known for the explicit lyrics on last year’s multiplatinum album “12 Play.” The title of Kelly’s wonderfully craven single “Bump and Grind” became a catch phrase in urban communities, and won the sensually bald singer a legion of female fans ready and willing to fluff his pillow. Now, with a self-titled album due out, the 28-year-old has love and death–as well as sex–on his brain. “The bump-and-grind period of my life was just a mood,” he says....
American phenomenon, “internal immigration.” A river of Americans, many of them in or near retirement and most of them escaping (as they see it) from California’s congestion, taxes, housing costs, crime and other blemishes, are buying houses about as fast as lumber can be sawed and nails driven, and are eager to purchase services. But Utah’s Sen. Robert Bennett has been told by representatives of the county’s construction industry that if the flow of illegal immigrants comes to an abrupt halt, so will the county’s growth....
Anatomy Structure The outer ear—sometimes called the auricle or pinna—is mostly made of skin and cartilage. It is made up of several components: Helix: The outermost curvature of the ear, extending from where the ear joins the head at the top to where it meets the lobule. The helix begins the funneling of sound waves into the ear Fossa, superior crus, inferior crus, and antihelix: These sections make up the middle ridges and depressions of the outer ear....
In the post shared to the U.K.-based website Mumsnet by account arachnidpearl, the parent shared their shock of having to pay the equivalent of $34 to go to the party at a climbing wall activity center in northern England. The parent said in a post shared on Tuesday: “My DS [dear son] has been invited to a child’s party on Saturday. It’s at an activity place with a climbing wall then food afterwards....
Yet Presidents–even those whose backgrounds, like Clinton’s, would make them highly sympathetic to these attitudes–are obliged to strike a balance between competing interests. For them, agreements like the one in last week’s joint statement–the reduction of the threat on nuclear proliferation, cooperation on Korea, the Gulf and the Middle East–represent moral values defining the American commitment to peace. This is why President Clinton has done well to courageously resist pressures–especially from the media–to turn the summit into a one-issue meeting on human rights....
It all started when Steven Woodington, 55, and another unidentified man were arrested in Cameron County, Texas, earlier this month for animal cruelty. Sheriff Omar Lucio said he discovered the abuse after neighbors called in complaints about dogs barking. The sheriff discovered an estimated 270 animals, many covered in feces and urine, often with multiple animals packed into a single small cage. Two dozen of the animals were found dead....
The virus, which was first reported in Wuhan, China, has infected more than a million people across 181 countries and regions, while over 58,000 have died, according to the latest figures from Johns Hopkins University. Speaking to Newsweek, the chief executive officer of the International Council of Nurses, Howard Catton, said: “We have been concerned for some weeks now about how many nurses and other healthcare staff have become infected with the coronavirus....
Researchers from the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) at the University of Washington School of Medicine compared data from the U.S. National Vital Statistics System (NVSS), the government system that collates all death certificates, to three non-governmental, open-source databases on fatal police violence. The study, obtained by Newsweek ahead of its publication in The Lancet on Thursday, found that the NVSS under-reported deaths from police violence by more than 55 percent between 1980 and 2018....
Not all players can or want to spend the real money needed to unlock these items. Instead, they’d rather earn Coins for free in Overwatch 2, something that can be done—but it is a bit of a slow grind. Because Overwatch 2 is free-to-play, Blizzard is relying on the Legendary Skins, emotes, and other items in the game’s store to help with the costs of the servers. And that means that players are going to need to purchase or earn Coins if they want to start unlocking things that aren’t unlocked when you level up the Battle Pass....
In a TikTok video, Jennifer Gallagher explained that her two pups live on a diet of boiled green beans, bison, and sweet potatoes. Maltipoo Maci, who will turn 17 in February, and beagle Rusty, who will turn 16 in November, both get their meals freshly prepared every day by their paw-rents using only natural ingredients. It’s this diet, combined with long morning walks, that their owner attributes to their long lives and robust health....

Ozil has regularly wowed the Emirates Stadium faithful with his creative skills since joining from Real Madrid in 2013, but the club’s poor performances over recent years have also brought a slew of criticism for the 29-year-old. Emery addressed the media for the first time since his appointment as Arsenal head coach on Wednesday and suggested Ozil can expect to be central to his plans. “He’s one of the biggest talents here at Arsenal and I want talented players here,” said the ex-Sevilla boss, who is fresh from landing a domestic treble with Paris Saint-Germain....
The Montreal Canadiens defenseman -- and 2013 Norris Trophy winner -- has made a series of Instagram posts over the last day offering glimpses into his offseason workout routine. Alrighty then. In a related story, we're happy to report that popcorn on pizza is delicious. Subban, 24, was named the NHL's best defenseman after the regular season. Part of the reason the vote was so close -- he received 68 first-place votes to Ryan Suter's 65 -- was that Suter averaged more ice time per game, at 27:16 to 23:14....

Milwaukee currently sits atop the Eastern Conference with a 48-16 record, including an impressive 12-1 record within the Central Division.

That said, he also isn’t opposed to getting in-game action with Green Bay’s offense. He just wants to make sure that if he does, it is meaningful. The 38-year-old quarterback explained at Packers training camp Tuesday that if he plays in the preseason, he wants to play more than just one series. Why? Because he doesn’t believe that type of limited action is beneficial, per ESPN. “I’m not saying this to send a message to Matt; I’ve already told Matt the same thing,” Rodgers later added....
Typically, teams will wait until 90 minutes before kickoff before revealing whether a player will be active. That’s the deadline the league has set for teams to list their inactives for gameday.
