Hall and Atkins are their two biggest questions heading into camp. Both are starters who mean a lot to a defense that ranked third in the NFL last season.

Sara Netanyahu was traveling on Israel’s national carrier, El Al, with her husband for a two-day visit to Ukraine. But she was apparently annoyed that the pilot’s welcome message excluded her. She demanded to be able to enter the cockpit to make her feelings known, according to Channel 12. After discussions, the pilot mentioned her in a separate announcement, the channel added. The Israeli prime minister’s office did not deny that an incident took place, but said the report of her behavior was “distorted....

Dealing with a 36-year-old pitcher, the inclination is to believe that this is some of the random fluctuation that happens with relief pitchers. In this case, that is only part of the story, according to data from fangraphs.com. While it is true that the rate of fly balls against Benoit that went out of the park was a particularly high 18.2 percent in 2012, and 8.1 percent in 2013 (his career rate is 9....

A potential contest between undefeated middleweight champion Golovkin and Alvarez, whose only career loss came at the hands of Floyd Mayweather in 2013, has been mooted for some time. Golovkin had too much power for the brave Brook at London’s O2 Arena last weekend, and the Briton, who stepped up two weight divisions, was defeated in the fifth round when his corner threw in the towel. Former middleweight king Hopkins now expects Alvarez (47-1-1) to put on a show as he attempts to take the WBO light-middleweight title from Smith (23-0-1) at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas....

Many Democrats are pushing to include raising the national minimum wage from $7.25 to $15 in President Joe Biden’s $1.9 trillion COVID stimulus package, and the House is set to include it in the legislation it will later send up to the Senate. However, hiking the minimum wage to $15 is opposed by two Senate Democrats in particular: Senator Joe Manchin (D-WV) and Senator Kyrsten Sinema (D-AZ). Both have ruled out voting for it....

Sanders sought to remind viewers of ABC News’ This Week Sunday morning that in order for any progressive policies to make their way through government, Biden must be elected on November 3.

Sanders pushed back against former members of his own campaign who are saying they are not enthusiastic about supporting the Biden-Harris ticket....

An official with the Trump campaign claimed the fundraising bounty was the result of a backlash caused by Wednesday’s vote, which resulted in the House impeaching the president on two articles. Trump has consistently portrayed himself as a victim of a “witch hunt” during the impeachment process, claiming it would boost his chances in the 2020 election. “Every time the Democrats in the media go into a frenzy like they did on Wednesday with the vote, we collect more data, we have greater interaction with the voters and we raise more money,” Trump campaign communications director Tim Murtaugh told Hill....

Sanders, I-Vt., who is running for president as a Democrat, wrote in a letter to Manfred that MLB was negotiating in “bad faith” with the minor leagues over a new Professional Baseball Agreement (PBA). As he did in November, Sanders called on MLB to withdraw its proposal to eliminate 42 minor league affiliations and to begin paying minor league players a “living wage.” Sanders added that it would be a mistake for Manfred to think Congress would “sit idly by....

However, luckily for house plant enthusiasts, some plants can still survive and thrive in low light, or even artificial light conditions.

It’s no exaggeration to say that light is a plant’s lifeblood, no matter what their preferred environmental conditions — they quite literally can’t survive without it....
