While offering no direct evidence linking Hussein to the recent tainting of American spinach with E. coli, Bush said that intelligence sources indicated that “trying to destroy America by poisoning its spinach is just the kind of thing that Saddam Hussein would try to do, if given half a chance.” He added that he would take action to maintain an uninterrupted flow of spinach by releasing America’s Strategic Spinach Reserve, millions of tons of spinach stored in huge underground salt caverns along the coastline of the Gulf of Mexico....

Whatever the situation, I have you covered. Below is my patented and simple to use ‘2017 Champions Trophy Preview’ writing template. The reality is that every Champions Trophy preview is basically the same. Go ahead and read them. It’s like Groundhog Day or when you listen to a Cold Play album. Every song sounds the same. So instead of trying to reinvent the wheel, just jump on board and take help of this easy-to-use cheat sheet....

Having earned plenty of plaudits in back-to-back FFA Cup campaigns with NPL Victoria clubs Oakleigh Cannons and Green Gully, Papas joined Saudi Pro League outfit Al Ettifaq as an assistant coach in February. Now back with Green Gully upon the completion of the 2016-17 season, the 37-year-old told www.socceroos.com.au that Saudi Arabia’s top flight is the best competition he’s ever worked in, and believes the Green Falcons will focus on counterattacking the Socceroos on June 8....

Saudi Colonel Turki al-Maliki, head of the Saudi-led and U.S.-backed coalition, said that “legitimate military targets” of the Houthi movement, also known as Ansar Allah, were struck in response to the Yemeni militia’s ballistic missile attack Saturday on Riyadh and other areas of the kingdom, according to the Saudi Press Agency. Maliki said the targets included sites used by the Houthis for storing and assembling various weapons such as missiles and drones, along with positions manned by experts of Iran’s Revolutionary Guard....

For the millions of immigrants who passed through Ellis Island as they entered America over 100 years ago, the torch that Lady Liberty held up was a beacon of hope. How then has she come to be used at a month-long festival in Jeddah, a port city in a country which could not be more undeserving of “The Lady in the Harbor”? For, if you live in Saudi Arabia you have no hope if you are a woman, gay, in favor of free speech or democratic rule....

The 1.5 million workers and retirees in these plans are truck drivers, iron workers, musicians, warehouse workers and others, together with their spouses and widows. Some could lose as much as 70 percent of their benefits if Congress fails to act. In 2014, Congress hurriedly passed a bill intended to solve this problem in a last-minute budget deal, but it was badly designed and in effect sold retirees down the river....

Zimbabwe women deservedly won the first T20 match. The side won by two wickets, thanks to a brilliant bowling performance and a responsible 28-run knock in the lower order by Pellagia Mujaji. Meanwhile, South Africa will look to bounce back from the narrow defeat in the first T20. They have notable names in their ranks like Faye Tunnicliffe, Anne Bosch, and Nondumiso Shangase, on whom they can rely to level the series....

Meanwhile, another new Hollywood term has emerged-and it’s very ’90s. Nobody, it seems, asks you out for a beer or coffee; in these health-conscious times, they say, “Let’s go out for a beverage.” That usually means nothing racier than a Pellegrino, but leaves open the option of a wine spritzer for L.A.’s most daring drinkers.

Messi, who captained Argentina at the World Cup, is yet to comment on when he may be available again, having skipped a pair of friendlies in September. The 31-year-old, a frustrated figure during Russia 2018, is not included in Scaloni’s squad for games against Iraq and Brazil this month either. And Scaloni, in charge on a temporary basis as Argentina seek a successor to Jorge Sampaoli, is unclear on when he may be able to select Messi....

Not even Montague’s teammates knew the reason for his departure, so they showed their support by wearing T-shirts with his “Gucci” nickname before Friday’s Harvard game.

To start, the most common way to obtain gifts in Scarlet Nexus is to purchase them from the Presents section of the shop. This section can be found under the Exchange tab, and indeed players will need to trade-in some designated materials in order to obtain gifts from it. Notably, fans can also earn presents through the completion of various side quests, though they are not a particularly consistent source for these items....

The Rajasthan Royals star realises he would need to be patient and wait for his opportunity to play the longest format of the game. Sanju Samson played three T20Is against Australia recently but could only manage 48 runs. The 26-year-old will now be in action in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy where he is going to lead Kerala. Speaking to Mid-Day, Samson feels a cricketer needs to play Test cricket to prove himself as a ‘proper cricketer’....

Several parts of the surrounding area were evacuated, including the KEYT television station, which is near where the fire sparked on the hillside between Miramonte Drive and Loma Alta Drive, the Santa Barbara County Fire Department told the Los Angeles Times. There were no reported injuries and the cause of the fire is unknown at this time, according to the Associated Press. The blaze, dubbed the Loma Fire, was reported to be 40 percent contained as of late Thursday evening, following decreased winds....

Olympic and local officials said last week they were considering changing the dates because “the 2030 option will be a better environment to host the Games”, city official Akihiro Okumura told AFP. Following a meeting in Lausanne on Monday between representatives of the Japanese Olympic Committee (JOC), the City of Sapporo, and the IOC, the IOC confirmed the decision in a statement which said: “The Japanese National Olympic Committee and the IOC agreed today that the IOC would not put Sapporo on the list of candidates for the Olympic Winter Games 2026, but to continue with the close dialogue already underway for the Olympic Winter Games 2030....

To the Bosnian government, that’s treason. There would be no city to defend if Sarajevo’s population left. Denial Cengic, a 23-year-old soldier who saw a Serb and his Muslim girlfriend shot down last year as they tried to elope across the front lines, observes that they “deserved it.” And yet thousands of Sarajevans attended the memorial service. “In the beginning, we judged people who escaped as traitors,” says Srdjan Vuletic, a filmmaker who chose not to pull strings and flee....

Sarri arrived at Stamford Bridge late after Chelsea chased him over the summer, as they struggled to find an agreement with Napoli’s president Aurelio De Laurentiis over bringing him into the club. Napoli ultimately let Sarri go, but the relationship between both parties has subsequently become strained, as a war of words is waged in the media. The length of the negotiations left Sarri with a very short pre-season to work in, having arrived a week after many first team players, while the World Cup also had a major impact....
