In its press release, Hockey Canada said that there will be an interim management committee put in place for the time being until a newly constructed board is formed and they can appoint a new CEO. A new slate of directors will be selected at the upcoming election on Dec. 17. The past board members have agreed not to seek re-election. The decision stems from controversy that the organization has faced in its handling of sexual assault allegations, specifically the 2018 sexual assault investigation that allegedly involves members of Canada’s national junior team and players from the CHL....

A prolific scorer with Chicoutimi in the QMJHL and Nova Scotia in the AHL, Carbonneau carved out his niche in the NHL with a tenacious competitive streak that defined his career with Montreal, St. Louis and Dallas from 1980-2000. Known as “Carbo,” he followed linemate Bob Gainey’s lead in winning the Frank J. Selke Trophy three times with the Canadiens. He first won the Stanley Cup with Montreal in 1986, was the Canadiens’ captain when they won the Cup for the 24th time in 1993 and was a key member of the Stars’ first Stanley Cup win in 1999....

However, the fifth edition of Hockey India League could be a lot different than any of the previous editions, given the high influx of foreign players, including and especially Europeans and Australians. India have also performed commendably in 2016, winning Asian Champions Trophy and Junior World Cup, which is likely to give players a sense of tremendous confidence. Ranchi Rays Ranchi Rays have a top class team brimming with both Indian and foreign stars in every position....

Despite the several circle penetrations, it took till the 8th minute for the first real chance to materialise, as the visitors won the first PC of the game. The opportunity went amiss though, as Billy Bakker tried an improvised variation from the injection, but his attempt was blocked away by the home team’s defender David Harte. The following minutes into the first quarter saw both teams make several forays into the circle in a bid to convert the chances but it was not meant to be, they went into the first break in a 0-0 deadlock....

Hogwarts Legacy takes place in the 1800s and will allow players to take on the role of their own Hogwarts student. They must choose between light and dark magic to determine the fate of the wizarding world and make their own mark on history.

What to make, then, of McDonald’s recent warning to Wall Street, when it announced that it will post its first quarterly loss in 37 years as a public company? Or its plans, disclosed a month earlier, to slow the pace of expansion, closing 175 stores (after shutting 163 in 2001), including 35 in Turkey alone–the first significant closings in its history? For much of the past decade, McDonald’s has been the quintessential high-growth multinational, vaulting from success to success and building a uniquely American empire....

The pledge case itself may turn out to be a minor distraction. California’s Ninth Circuit, one of the nation’s most liberal courts, is also one of the most overturned–and its pledge decision is almost certain to be reversed down the road. But lost in the tumult over the ruling was a simple fact that helps to illuminate the larger dissatisfaction with the courts: as much as the ruling overreached, the California court was clearly taking its cues from a higher authority–the U....

The Hawaii Innocence Project filed a petition Monday night asking a judge to vacate the arrest and correct the records of Joshua Spriestersbach. Spriestersbach was arrested in 2017 after falling asleep on a sidewalk waiting for food at a Honolulu shelter, the Associated Press reported. When he woke up, Spriestersbach believed he was being arrested for the city’s ban on sitting or laying down on public sidewalks. But the officer mistook him for a man named Thomas Castleberry, who was wanted for violating probation in a 2006 drug case....

Two hours north of Tokyo via bullet train in Tochigi, Japan, Honda’s Research and Development center has several long, thin tanks of a green goo positioned on top of one of its buildings, being fed carbon dioxide (CO2) through a bubbling tube, absorbing sun and producing oxygen. It’s a test bed for a genetically engineered microalgae that is Honda’s newest ally in the battle against climate change. Greenhouse gasses, carbon dioxide, along with methane and nitrous oxide, are the bane of a controlled climate....

As such, these substances kill certain bacteria. The drug also makes the urine more acidic than usual. The urine must be acidic for Hiprex to work well....

Unlike conventional musicals, where the characters sing at each other, “Chicago’s” creative concept requires musical numbers to be performed on a stage, to the audience. It took Marshall’s simple, brilliant solution–with help from screenwriter Bill Condon–to get Miramax to put up the $45 million needed to make the movie. Marshall has the numbers spring from the imagination of Roxie Hart (Renee Zellweger), the homicidal, fame-hungry flapper of jazz-age Chicago. This permits the linear, realistic story that movie audiences expect, while retaining the showstoppers from Bob Fosse’s 1975 stage production....

Ruiz sat down with Newsweek for a Q&A-style interview to talk about being a physician and a lawmaker during a pandemic, the ins and outs of getting Biden and Congress to move on immigration, the Latino vote, disinformation campaigns, and more.

The child of farmworkers you achieved your dream of becoming a physician and have been in Congress almost a decade....

Taylor, the Colts’ second-year running back, has been the best running back in football for the second half of the season. He was overshadowed by Derrick Henry and a lower usage rate in the first half of the campaign, but since the Colts have given him the primary, do-it-all role in the offense, he has excelled. In fact, Taylor has performed so well that he is getting MVP buzz from people within the NFL community....
