The legislation would require anyone seeking federal office in Tennessee to have lived in the state and district they wish to represent for at least three years. Morgan Ortagus, the Republican endorsed by Trump running in Tennessee’s 5th district, just moved to the state last year. The bill now goes to Republican Governor Bill Lee’s desk. Lee’s office told Newsweek on Tuesday that they were reviewing the legislation. “No one questioned my residency when I served our country in the intelligence community, the Trump Administration, nor in the U....

This windup battery charger is brought to you by Freeplay Energy Group, the London-based company that gave the world the windup radio and the windup flashlight. Selling a few million of these gadgets since the mid-1990s has yielded annual revenues of $40 million, but the firm expects to sell a whopping 40 million mobile-phone chargers in the first year. While the other windup products used bulky springs, the phone charger has a tiny alternator that translates the mechanical (windup) energy into electricity, which it stores in its own lithium-ion battery....

But violent demonstrators did not desire quietness. After midnight, they burned a Bible and an American flag. Perhaps the arsonists will claim that they were merely practicing constitutionally protected speech. But is igniting flags and Bibles in the heart of a city that, for two months, has been a riot zone, really protected? Or might it be a textbook example of starting a fire in a crowded theater? The flag and Bible burners waved Black Lives Matter banners, though without “official” permission....

Aldridge, 27 at the time, was an All-Star, in the heart of his prime years. The Blazers, though, were a young team still trying to figure out how to remain competitive in the Western Conference. That was the basis for rumors of his unhappiness—the team was starting over, but Aldridge was already fairly advanced in his career. Aldridge was, indeed, disappointed with a 13-game losing streak to close the season, one that knocked Portland out of any hope of a playoff spot, but truth is, he was never angling to leave the team....

Earlier in the day a bomb threat delayed proceedings for more than an hour, and by the end of the day it was reported Hernandez’s fiancee, Shayanna Jenkins, will testify Friday. MORE: Prosecutors could soon rest case | Most heinous crimes connected to athletes According to The Associated Press, Jenkins has received immunity, meaning she can be compelled to testify or face jail time for contempt of court. With the prosecution about a week away from resting its case, Jenkins’ testimony could prove to be one of the most important declarations in the case since prosecutors claim Jenkins removed a box from the home she shared with Hernandez that contained the murder weapon....

Roger Goodell? Alex Rodriguez? Mike Francesa? We wan’t to think it’s Cowboys superfan Chris Christie, but he’s the governor of New Jersey, not New York....

On an episode of “Watch What Happens Live,” Rodger’s girlfiend Olivia Munn says that there are more important things to worry about when it’s time for the Packers to play. The couple refrains from having sex on days the Packers play.

A year-long saga between the organization and the franchise quarterback could be nearing its end, with reports indicating that Rodgers’ future with the team could be decided as soon as this week. While retirement seems like a distant third option at this point, it appears Rodgers is “truly torn” regarding what he wants to do moving forward: Play with the Packers for another season, or move on from Green Bay and try the Tom Brady experience elsewhere....

Bills safety Aaron Williams gave his team a 30-7 in the third quarter after returning a botched field goal attempt 53 yards for a touchdown.

In many cases, you can even go home the same day. Learn about how to prepare for several types of ablations below.

CRT is a concept used to teach that race is a social construct, and that racism isn’t the product of individual bias but is also deeply rooted in legal systems and policies. The notion has been dated back to the 1970s in America. The newspaper, titled The Emancipator, first began in 1833 as part of the abolitionist movement, and the revival is a joint effort between Boston University’s Center for Antiracist Research and The Boston Globe’s Opinion team....

Abraham netted Wednesday’s opener from close range in a 2-1 win over Lille in the Champions League, getting Chelsea off the mark after an opening home defeat to Valencia in Group H.

Even the most recent release, Modern Warfare 2, switched up a few elements from the previous few games. Not only did the dolphin dive make its grand return, but players quickly found out that some of the popular advanced Warzone movement techniques like slide canceling have been changed. As expected, many players have attempted to find new ways to get around maps and one group has seemingly uncovered a very effective and clearly unintentional method they’ve dubbed as G-Walk....

Donnarumma is China’s Great Wall It had been anticipated that the deal would go through on March 3, but there is a risk of further delay and perhaps even a complete collapse. Only the third and final instalment of the payment is still outstanding, but that is valued at €320 million. Chinese businessman Yonghong Li was initially supposed to head a consortium of many Chinese investors to buy the San Siro club from Fininvest, but the situation has abruptly changed....

Milan’s decline is a story almost as remarkable as Atletico Madrid’s rise to disrupt the La Liga hegemony and for this entirely contrasting duo to be pitted against one another offers a narrative filed under ‘football purists’. The chance to see ageing stars versus the new kids on the block is another appealing facet to a tie which has gone under the radar amongst the hysteria over face-offs such as Manchester City v Barcelona and Arsenal v Bayern Munich....
