David Ortiz walked off with the World Series MVP prize Wednesday night, capping a dominant week in which he led the Boston Red Sox over St. Louis with a mix of power, patience and a most timely pep talk. It was the crowning achievement in the career of Big Papi, now a three-time champion and the last link to the 2004 sweep over the Cardinals that ended an 86-year title drought....

In the days and weeks following my unborn baby’s death, it was challenging for almost anyone—even my husband—to comfort me. When I shared the news that I had miscarried, I was blessed to have friends and family who showed compassion and empathy. But sadly, some people—many people—did not know how to respond. They fumbled an “I’m sorry” immediately followed by “at least it was early” or “you will probably have another one soon” and then quickly changed the subject....

Garrett was reinstated Tuesday following a suspension by the NFL after he ripped off Rudolph’s helmet and hit the quarterback over the head with it in the closing stages of the Browns’ Week 10 victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers.

The manuscript—one of four extant early modern translations of the Roman historian to English—is described as “a fair copy, written in an elegant italic hand on ruled paper across 17 folio pages.” Researchers claim to have identified its author using tell-tale signs, from the shape of the ’e’s to the “rampant lion” watermarks. If correct, this would be the first piece of substantial work from Elizabeth to be discovered in more than a century....
Circular structures created from mammoth bones are found across eastern Europe. One of these, known as Kostenki 11, is over 40 feet in diameter.

The French Open and US Open champion had been set to feature in a high-profile doubles pairing with Roger Federer against John Isner and Jack Sock in the opening match of Sunday’s play. Nadal was also set to take on Nick Kyrgios in singles later in the day, having been beaten by the Australian in a doubles contest late on Saturday.

Many different games have tried to incorporate both standard action-adventure gameplay in one of its different forms or another with vehicle-based travel or combat. Some games pull this off better than others, but in general, it tends to feel like the vehicles end up taking a backseat to the primary gameplay loop and can feel a little tacked-on for some players. But after a reveal, the new Marvel game has a chance to one-up this trend....
The Belgium international came off the bench to score in second-half stoppage-time of Inter’s 5-0 win over Genoa, netting his third goal in all competitions following his €38million transfer from Roma. Nainggolan missed Inter’s 2-0 Group B defeat at Camp Nou in October due to an ankle injury but Spalletti, who previously coached the 30-year-old during his time in charge of Roma, indicated that he may be utilised in a more defensive role when Barcelona visit San Siro....

In a letter to her colleagues in the lower chamber, Pelosi said she spoke to the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Mark Milley—the highest-ranking and most senior military officer in the U.S. Armed Forces and principal military adviser to the president—to “discuss available precautions for preventing an unstable president from initiating military hostilities or accessing the launch codes and ordering a nuclear strike.” Pelosi added, “The situation of this unhinged president could not be more dangerous, and we must do everything that we can to protect the American people from his unbalanced assault on our country and our democracy....
Waters was accused of inciting violence after telling demonstrators protesting police brutality in Brooklyn Center, Minnesota—where Duante Wright, a 20-year-old Black man, was shot and killed by a police officer—that they need to “get more confrontational” in the fight for police reform. Pelosi staunchly rejected the idea of apologizing, saying that Waters’ comments were appropriate in the context they were used. “No, Maxine talked about confrontation in the manner of the civil rights movement,” Pelosi said....
Briton Murray, three-times a grand slam champion, showed no signs of fatigue having just recovered from a thigh injury and wrapped up the match in under an hour and 30 minutes. “I thought I did okay considering I hadn’t played much the past couple of weeks.
