Bachman performed at the event Actor’s Hour at a bar called Downtime in Manhattan. In the video, Bachman referred to Weinstein as “a Freddy Krueger in the room” and stated, “I didn’t know that we have to bring our own mace and rape whistles to Actor’s Hour, y’all.” After some boos and one attendee yelling “Shut up,” she added, “This kills at group therapy for rape survivors. I have been raped, surprisingly by no one in this room, but I’ve never gotten to confront those guys....

They were unable to capitalize on their chances. Washington lost 20-12 as a controversial penalty and subsequent no-call in the New York red zone late in the game cost the Commanders a shot at tying the game in the final minute. The defeat dropped Washington to 7-6-1 on the year and moved New York up to 8-5-1 and into the second NFC wild-card spot. The NFC wild-card race still has the Commanders in the third wild-card spot, but the pressure is on for the rest of the year as the Lions and Seahawks continue to linger with a shot at closing in on the spot....

Pebereau’s proposed menage a trois is audacious–and fraught with complications. For one thing, only a month ago SocGen and Paribas had announced that they would be merging to form one of Europe’s largest banks. For another, the brash move pleased the French establishment not a bit. Unlike the SocGen-Paribas union, which was friendly and blessed by the government, Pebereau didn’t discuss his blockbuster attack with any government officials, or with executives at SocGen or Paribas....

On the Reddit thread, “Am I The A**Hole,” username u/Throw33463566 identified herself as a 36-year-old female and explained that her son passed away at the age of 3 from a chronic condition. She said when she found out her brother and his wife were expecting a child after experiencing multiple miscarriages she decided to loan her brother the nursery “under the condition they give it back when they no longer need it....

In July, researchers from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute found heparin was just as effective at blocking SARS-CoV-2 infection in cells than remdesivir, an antiviral that received emergency use authorization from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to treat COVID-19 back in May. While heparin is FDA-approved to prevent blood clots, remdesivir isn’t officially FDA-approved for any condition. “We’re learning how to block viral infection, and that is knowledge we are going to need if we want to rapidly confront pandemics,” Jonathan Dordick, PhD, lead researcher and a professor of chemical and biological engineering at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute says in a news release....

Chronic pelvic pain is defined as lasting for six months or longer and is unrelated to pregnancy. Acute pelvic pain is pain that starts over a short period of time—from a few minutes to a few days. This type of pain is often a warning sign that something is wrong and should be evaluated promptly. Ovarian Cysts Women who have ovarian cysts may experience sharp pain if a cyst leaks fluid or bleeds a little....

Because the process of finding a cause for your pain can be daunting, you may be tempted to stop looking altogether. Try, however, to stick with it for as long as you can. Simply eliminating potential diseases and disorders can help you understand where your pain is not coming from, even if the true source is never actually discovered. This can make treating your pain more effectively. Over time, your healthcare provider will perform a number of different tests which may include blood work, imaging, and nerve testing....

Stephen Curry and Co. accomplished the feat Monday with a 119-113 victory over the Orlando Magic — their 45th in a row at Oracle Arena — surpassing the 1995-96 Chicago Bulls, who hold the record for most wins (72) in an NBA regular season. As the Warriors (56-6) shift their attention toward chasing down the 72-win marker with 20 games to play, here’s how their home win streak has compared to the standard-bearing Bulls team....

Several competing stations in the area around Woodman’s Market in Waukesha, Wisconsin, have filed a lawsuit against the location alleging that it’s selling gasoline below cost, according to local ABC News affiliate WISN. The locations claim that this is in violation of Wisconsin’s Unfair Sales Act. Court documents obtained by WISN name companies that operate nearby BP and Shell gas stations as plaintiffs in the case. Both are demanding $80,000 in restitution, an amount based on the 40 days they claim Woodman’s has been keeping prices too low....

Stephen Frear’s memorable, invigoratingly unsentimental movie unfolds with a brash confidence of its own. Frears showed his flair for film noir in “Gumshoe” (1971), and his mastery of complex tones in movies as diverse as “My Beautiful Laundrette” and “Dangerous Liaisons.” The bouncy, sardonic Elmer Bernstein score gives us our first clue to the spin Frears is putting on a classic film noir form: we’re invited, at first, to relish the black-comic heartlessness of Thompson’s seedy characters, who seem suspended in time between their ’40s prototypes and the ’90s setting....

For the wired road warrior, Rowe, 37, is a hotel amenity that’s more valuable than Spectravision: a technology concierge. These pros–sometimes called e-butlers–are fast becoming a key attraction at upscale hotels. Ritz-Carlton claims to have invented the concept in 1998 at its Kuala Lumpur location; the following year it added full-time tech helpers at every property. Other high-end hotels like the Four Seasons have them in each location as well....

Even while one of Condit’s senior advisors today acknowledged that the congressman and Levy had been having an intimate affair, Condit again repeatedly refused to publicly confirm the nature of the relationship to NEWSWEEK, insisting that his was a “principled position.” Said Condit: “The press is not entitled to know everything about my private life or the private life of any other member of Congress,” he said. “You’re not the church, and you’re not the court....

The latest incident took place Wednesday prior to the All-Star Race at Bristol Motor Speedway in Tennessee. A small plane was seen above the track grounds towing a flag; attached to the flag was a banner displaying the letters “SCV.org,” which refers to the Sons of Confederate Veterans. The organization’s headquarters are in Columbia, Tenn. MORE: Facts of the Bubba Wallace noose case SCV was also behind a flag being flown over Talladega Superspeedway in June shortly after NASCAR announced the ban....

She was strolling through the living room when she looked over my shoulder and saw–and heard–what was on the television screen. And then she cracked up. “You’re listening to the commentary track for ‘Toy Story 2’?” It was not a question so much as an expression of disbelief, and even I had to laugh. “OK, OK,” I said. “Enough is enough.” Or words to that effect. I can’t remember what I said exactly....

The Innovation and Competition Act’s $52 billion subsidy for onshore chip fabrication is long overdue. But trickling out subsidies through dozens of federal bureaucracies, as the House and Senate bills propose, won’t by themselves revive American high-tech manufacturing, productivity and military dominance. What’s missing is the “D” in R&D. Without a revival of the product development that links high-tech manufacturing with results-oriented research, American research will only promote industry in Asia, where public policy supports capital-intensive investment....

One member eager to get to work addressing the nation’s national security concerns is sophomore Republican Representative Tony Gonzales of Texas’ 23rd Congressional District, which stretches across a large portion of the U.S.-Mexico border. “I don’t want to see the 118th Congress fall down into chaos,” Gonzales told Newsweek. “There’s a lot of priorities that we’ve got to get done for the nation’s business.” Following last week’s events, Gonzales stood as the only Republican to side with Democrats in voting against the rules package that governs how the chamber operates....

Mitchell, a Republican who has criticized President Donald Trump’s attempts to undermine confidence in the outcome of the election, said he is fearful that Republican support of Trump’s actions could lead to “long-term harm to our democracy.” Mitchell asked the clerk of the U.S. House of Representatives to officially change his party affiliation from “Republican” to “Independent” for the remainder of his time in office. The former Republican is completing his final term in Congress after announcing last year that he did not intend to seek re-election....
