Aguero made his first Argentina start since Sampaoli replaced Edgardo Bauza and took full advantage by ending an international barren run that stretched back to June 2016. 3/1 for Argentina & Nigeria to draw Messi, who played in behind Aguero, released debutant Cristian Pavon and the Boca Juniors forward’s cross was converted at the second time of asking by the Manchester City striker. “This is what we are looking for,” Sampaoli told a post-match news conference at the Luzhniki Stadium, newly refurbished ahead of next year’s World Cup....
Aguero had a second-half penalty saved as Edgardo Bauza’s men suffered a 1-0 loss to Paraguay in World Cup qualifying on Tuesday. The Manchester City star is without a goal in five qualifiers this campaign, and netted just once at the Copa America Centenario. Asked if he would be surprised not to be called up for November’s qualifiers, Aguero said: “No, because I’m not doing things right. Five things learned from the World Cup qualifiers...
The Argentina international headed home a Fernandinho cross to give City a 27th-minute lead over Bournemouth on Saturday.

And Aguero got his 101st goal in the 79th minute, scoring City’s third of the evening in what ended up being a 4-0 thrashing of the Cherries....
Aguero underwent keyhole surgery on his right knee to curtail a season where he won his third Premier League title and scored 30 goals in all competitions. The 29-year-old is set to be part of Jorge Sampaoli’s plans in Russia as the country makes another tilt for World Cup glory. Speaking at a news conference ahead of City’s Premier League match against Huddersfield Town, Guardiola confirmed the prognosis from the surgeon who operated on Aguero in Barcelona, Dr Ramon Cugat, was positive....
Will the Kohl plan work? The Bush administration is skeptical. The original Marshall Plan had one great advantage: capitalism survived in the ruins of postwar Europe. Seed money there nurtured cornfields and factories. In the Soviet Union, Bush advisers fear, it would produce only more bureaucratic failure. “Just about everybody agrees that until the Soviet economy is radically reformed, any aid given is pouring money down the rathole,” says a senior administration official....
Here’s Justice’s case in a nutshell: when three small rivals started flying into American’s hub in Dallas-Ft. Worth in the mid-1990s, American flooded the routes with cheap seats to scare them away, then raised fares. It’s called predatory pricing, and even though smaller airlines have been complaining about it for years, this is the first time the government has brought such a case against an airline since deregulation. Predatory pricing has also come up in the government’s case against Microsoft, which often gives away software to build market share....
In a recent interview, Washington Post reporter Jonathan Capehart asked Franken if he would ever run for office again. “I don’t know,” Franken answered. “I certainly loved my time in the Senate. I loved the job. I got a lot done. I was able to accomplish things I couldn’t accomplish anywhere else, I don’t think. So, yeah, it would be tempting to try to do that again.” “At some point?...
Who was the shadowy general behind the wave of violence? Pakistani and Taliban officials interviewed recently by NEWSWEEK say it was none other than Ayman Al-Zawahiri, the Qaeda No. 2 who has also been appearing in a recent flurry of audio- and videotapes.

Kennedy, a Wetumpka, Ala., native who graduated in December and is nearly finished earning his master’s degree, finished the spring as Alabama’s backup center.

Additionally, since November of 2019, the board, composed of three members, has had 4,700 requests for pardons, with about an equal numbers of Blacks and whites. Only 18 percent of Black applicants were granted pardons compared to 24 percent of white applicants. This decreasing trend began when Jimmy O’Neal Spencer was charged with killing two women and a child in Guntersville in July of 2018 while on parole. “It only took the one bad apple to have really changed this in the direction of ‘Lock them up, throw away the key,’” said Aimee Smith, an attorney who has represented clients before the board for about 20 years....

The Crimson Tide jumped out to a 28-0 lead, their renowned physicality showing up in moments like running back Josh Jacobs steamrolling a defender on the way to the end zone and Sooners quarterback Kyler Murray appearing frustrated on the sideline after being hindered by a constant pass rush. While Oklahoma’s offense got going midway through the second quarter and kept things interesting most of the way, it could never catch Alabama, which finished with 528 total yards....
Nobody would mistake Dirk Nickisch for a tree hugger. But as he takes off and flies over the northern mountains of Alaska–into one of the last unspoiled wilderness areas of America–he explains (if you ask him) why he doesn’t want multinational oil companies to explore and drill for oil in any part of the refuge. “I moved up here because it’s the last place like this,” he says, looking out the windscreen over the southern reaches of the 19 million-acre refuge....
Located in the southeast of Alaska, Tongass is the largest national forest in the U.S.—covering an area of around 16.7 million acres—and, indeed, one of the largest intact temperate forests in the world. The hearing on Wednesday—held by the Natural Resources Subcommittee on National Parks, Forests and Public Land (NPFPL)—revolves around the so-called “Roadless Rule,” which was introduced in 2001. Native American groups who live in the area and rely on the forest say its removal could have potentially devastating consequences for their way of life, The Guardian reported....
