Cubs Say “Just Wait ‘til Next Year” Without a doubt the main storyline of this year’s Fall League has been the impressive performance turned in by trio of Cub farmhands: third baseman Kris Bryant and outfielders Albert Almora and Jorge Soler. Bryant was the No. 2-overall pick in June and the powerful righty has more than lived up to his lofty draft status. After tearing through three levels to the tune of ....

State Sen. Michelle Ugenti-Rita was initially a supporter of the audit conducted by the firm Cyber Ninjas but had soured on the “botched” exercise by July, while accusing Republican state Senate President Karen Fann of a “total lack of competence.” On Friday, Ugenti-Rita sent Fann a resignation letter, informing Fann that she was stepping down from her role as leader of the Senate Government Committee. “I am writing to inform you that effective immediately, I am withdrawing from my position as Chairman and member of the Senate Government Committee,” Ugenti-Rita wrote to Fann....

Democrat Kris Mayes, a former news reporter and lawyer, finished narrowly ahead of Republican rival Abraham Hamadeh in the race for Arizona’s attorney general, but her victory won’t be official until the results of a likely recount become available.

“Like many of you, I was concerned by the video of LT Nazario’s traffic stop in December. He represented himself and our Army well through his calm, professional response to the situation – I’m very proud of him,” said Grinston, the Army’s senior enlisted member, in a Monday tweet. “I cannot comment on ongoing litigation, but I’ve been assured he is receiving the support from his leadership he needs during this time,” the sergeant major added....

Thirteen of the world’s top 25 players will tee up at the Bay Hill Club and Lodge and the Northern Irishman is the runaway favorite to win the tournament for the second time in three years.

Don’t write off Wenger yet! Welbeck, a boyhood United fan and a product of the Old Trafford youth system, headed home Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain’s 57th-minute cross shortly after Granit Xhaka’s deflected strike put the hosts in front. It was only the 26-year-old’s second goal of another campaign blighted by injuries and, as when his goal helped to knock United out of the FA Cup two years ago, he snubbed the trend of only engaging in a muted celebration against old employers....

Pardew revealed on Friday that the club have received approaches for the 30-year-old but that none had met the Baggies’ valuation of the player, who has 18 months left on his contract.

Arsenal close in on Lemar The 20-year-old attracted interest from the Premier League, Bundesliga and Ligue 1 after finishing joint-top goalscorer in the Belgian Pro League with Eupen. Onyekuru confirmed there had been an offer from the Gunners and spoke of his desire to move to England, saying: “I remember saying if I had to move to the Premier League I want to be like Thierry Henry, so it’s likely to come true and I’m looking towards it at the moment”....

It all seemed destined for a top-drawer clash, until the final hurdle, and they slipped. Now, the Red Devils will have to face the Gunners with their title chances on the line after a disappointing draw having lost their most critical midfielder in the process. A last-gasp equaliser by Crystal Palace forced United to share the points on Wednesday, and they saw Casemiro trigger a yellow card suspension in the process....

At least that’s one plausible explanation for Arsenio’s elevated blood pressure. But underneath, one suspects, the former talk-show host may be more than just a little edgy over his impending return to the tube. Facing slipping ratings at the height of the late-night wars two years ago, Arsenio beat a retreat from his outpost in syndication. “After the show was through, I just wanted to stay home, read a book, sleep and watch TV,” he says....

Arterial diseases can impact different parts of the body and cause a lot of problems. The tissues involved—e.g., toes versus kidneys—determine the symptoms and severity of the problem. Arterial Anatomy Function and Risk Factors Arteries carry blood filled with oxygen and other nutrients from the heart to other parts of the body. The only exception to this is the pulmonary artery, which carries blood that has been depleted of oxygen from the heart to the lungs....
