The second-year LSU signal-caller is one game away from leading LSU to just the second 15-0 season in modern college football history. And it’s not unfair to say the biggest reason the Tigers are here is because of the incredible season Burrow has had. To date this season, Burrow has completed 371 of 478 passes (77.6 percent) for 5,208 passing yards, 55 touchdowns to six interceptions and a 204.6 quarterback rating....
Biden was responsible for appointing Jackson, 51, to her current position on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia. Previously, Jackson was nominated to serve as a district court judge in D.C. by then-President Barack Obama in 2012. She served there for 8-1/2 years and heard high-profile political cases, including one involving Donald F. McGahn II. In 2019, Jackson ruled that McGahn, the former White House counsel to Trump, was compelled to obey a congressional subpoena to testify about Trump’s alleged attempt to obstruct the Russia investigation by special counsel Robert Mueller....

The Crimson Tide coach has never missed a game, a mark that includes 183 contests through 13-plus seasons at Alabama. That streak is in jeopardy, however, as the Tide prepare to face No. 3 Georgia at home on Saturday. His absence from that game would mark a huge hole in the 2020 college football season, and presumably give Kirby Smart’s Bulldogs a leg up in the game. Saban will be able to coach Saturday’s game against the Bulldogs, however, as he met the criteria for an early return in accordance with the revised SEC COVID-19 protocols regarding asymptomatic individuals....

The recall election saw millions of voters be asked whether they want the governor removed from office. A majority vote is required to remove Newsom from office. As of September 15, 2:55 a.m. local time, around 64 percent of voters statewide were reported to have responded “no” to the recall question, according to the latest “unofficial” election results posted on the website of the California Secretary of State (SOS), who oversees recalls of state officers, including the governor....
2 yards of topsoil weighs about 4,200 lb (1,900 kg). To find the weight of multiple yards, multiply the weight of 1 yard by the total number of yards you need. A yard of fill dirt (dirt that’s filtered for construction use and doesn’t contain any organic matter) is slightly heavier and weighs about 2,150 lb (980 kg). If the topsoil is dry and sandy, it can weigh around 2,600 lb (1,200 kg) per cubic yard....
Work is well under way to build the new venue on the site of Spurs’ old White Hart Lane ground, Mauricio Pochettino’s side currently playing their home matches at Wembley.

As well as being Tottenham’s new home, the ground will also host at least two NFL International Series matches per season, and to accommodate that developers have produced a stunning new concept....
Recent studies have shown that mandatory mask requirements—policies that have sparked anger in some Americans—provide a simple barrier to prevent potentially infectious respiratory droplets from coming into contact with others. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends that cloth face coverings be washed after each use, according to its website. Johns Hopkins Medicine recommends washing the mask each time its user goes “someplace where maintaining consistent physical distancing” is challenging, including on public transportation, the grocery store or a doctor’s office....
Holyfield, who last fought in May 2011 against Brian Nielsen, appears to be the second-oldest boxer to ever fight professionally, should Saturday’s bout count against his professional record. Holyfield was 44-10-2 (29 KOs) from 1984 to 2011, and he became the only boxer in history to win the undisputed title in two weight classes (cruiserweight and heavyweight). He is also the only four-time world heavyweight champion. Holyfield announced his intention to return to the ring on May 6, 2020, for the cause #Unite4OurFight, which he said provides social and emotional development resources for children....

What Is Progesterone? The hormonal influence on the body is very complex. Hormones are molecules made up of chemical substances. They act as messengers of sorts. They are made in one part of the body, then travel to other areas, where they each do their own job to control how cells or organs work. Progesterone is said to be the major and most important hormone in the body. Progestogen is a general term for hormones that act like progesterone in the uterus—this group of hormones, therefore, includes progesterone and progestins, a synthetic lookalike that closely resembles progesterone....
Elizabeth’s attendance at Britain’s first-ever Platinum Jubilee was not guaranteed after health scares in October and November 2021. Over the following months, there were numerous canceled visits by Britain’s head of state, who had to pull out of reading her annual speech at the State Opening of Parliament in May 2022. However, the queen overcame her episodic mobility problems to appear on the Buckingham Palace balcony on two separate days and also started the lighting of more than 3,000 jubilee beacons in Britain and overseas territories....
However, despite posting winning seasons in 2019 and 2020, the team was only able to make one playoff appearance and won just one game. It was becoming clear that there were some limitations to the team’s upside, and if they wanted to take advantage of the strong core they had, they would need to make some moves. General manager Les Snead helped do just that. He and McVay worked to retool the Rams’ roster after their disappointing follow-ups to their 13-3 Super Bowl loss to the Patriots in 2019....
Four out of five people seeking cosmetic surgery in the study said they’d been “directly influenced” by shows including “Extreme Makeover,” E!’s “Dr. 90210,” MTV’s “I Want a Famous Face” and Bravo’s “Miami Slice.” More than half of the patients said they watched at least one such program regularly, and most admitted that the shows had played a significant role in their decision to go under the knife. Are these shows just harmless entertainment—the sort of thing that people who are open to cosmetic procedures would seek out anyway?...
Vision loss occurs because blood vessels in the eye do not fully develop before late pregnancy. When an infant is born prematurely, the blood vessels continue their growth but abnormally. The abnormal growth creates scar tissue on the eye and tension that pulls the retina away from the back of the eye to form a retinal detachment. This article discusses treatment options for retinopathy of prematurity, including surgical procedures....
