The Three Lions will head to Russia next summer attempting to win their first major international tournament since 1966, having been drawn in Group G, along with Belgium, Panama and Tunisia. Guardiola, meanwhile, has presided over a record-breaking run of form for Manchester City, who have yet to lose in 19 Premier League games and currently lead the league table by 13 points. And the Catalan has now offered his services to the national team, as they look to finally end 52 years of hurt....

Exercise: Physical exercise is a great way to discharge stressful feelings that accumulate during the day. Feel and look better. Get social support: Intimacy and community buffer stress. Call a friend. Get a dog. Go to church or synagogue. Make love. Have dinner with your family. Breathe: When you’re feeling stressed, your breath becomes more rapid and shallow. Take some slow, deep breaths, which will reduce your stress level almost immediately....

Footage posted to Instagram by saba_the_pit begins with a pet owner filming her kitchen, which has an upturned trashcan on the floor with garbage strewn around it. The litter, including scraps of paper and food items, also extended into the dining room. It is when she walks out there that she spots her pets. A small tabby cat is meowing in her path, and the camera then pans to a rather sheepish-looking American pit bull Terrier called Saba, who is peering out from behind a chair....

Calguns Foundation and Firearms Policy Coalition were listed on the lawsuit filed in San Diego on Monday. The lawsuit targets a California law that went into effect this year banning the sale of long guns — shotguns and rifles — to adults who are not yet 21. John W. Dillon is the attorney representing the groups, and he says buying and owning guns is a Second Amendment right, as long as the individual is an adult of age 18 or older....

While an initial report from the Associated Press cited a San Luis Obispo Sheriff’s Department spokesman as saying that Mason Lira, 26, was in police custody, the department has since said that Lira was killed during an exchange of gunfire in which he injured two more officers. Newsweek reached out to San Luis Obispo Sheriff’s Department for further information. This story will be updated with any response. On Wednesday near 4 a....

Bush - Spokesman Snow suggests Bush Senior’s failure to take Baghdad led to 9/11. Hey, W, are you blaming Dad? Karr - Guilty sicko or innocent weirdo? Either way, why is the media obsessing over this pathetic man? Cruise - Couch man bounced from Paramount lot. Maybe should’ve given Sumner Redstone first rights to Suri pics. Stem Cells = New way to produce them. No panacea–except for anti-stem pols looking for a fig leaf....

NEWSWEEK: The market has done well as baby boomers bulk up their 401(k)s. What happens when they belkin to cash out and retire? JACOBS: It’s not a concern in this decade. Baby boomers are just beginning to invest – they’ve barely crossed the starting line. You’re also seeing people keep more of their money in stocks later in their lives, so you can’t assume that baby boomers will pull much money out of stocks when they hit retirement age....

Steinbrenner spoke at Major League Baseball’s owners meetings before New York wasted a two-run lead in a 5-3 loss to the first-place Baltimore Orioles at Camden Yards, a few blocks away. The third-place Yankees dropped a season-high eight games off the AL East lead; they began the night 2½ games behind in the race for the AL’s second wild card. Steinbrenner was especially disappointed with New York’s batters. “They’ve got to step it up and they know it,” Steinbrenner said....

Rescuers were called to Longmont’s Vance Brand Municipal Airport, around 38 miles north of Denver on Saturday morning, to treat an unconscious man who had just done a skydive. Two off-duty nurses who were there tried to help him until responders arrived. Longmont police Sergeant John Wederquist said the man, who was named as Brock Barto, 29, from Frisco, was taken to hospital and later pronounced dead. Witnesses say that Barto’s parachute had opened and seemed to be working but there is speculation over whether he was attempting a special maneuver and simply misjudged the timing, Fox 31 reported....

“This is really a dream come true,” Evan said (via BoxingScene.com) before a crowd at Fighter Nation Boxing Gym that included family, friends and fans. “I have been doing this for more than 10 years and it’s not really a job if you really enjoy it. Life is always better when you have a dream you can strive for and work towards every day. I am eager to get started and excited to begin this next chapter....

“He was a friend of mine before he became president,” Rivera said on Fox News’ “Fox & Friends” earlier this week. “So, because he’s president I will turn my back on him? No. I respect him. “I respect what he does, and I believe he’s doing the best for the United States of America.” Rivera’s remarks were in response to a lengthy piece posted Sunday on The Daily Beast, a typically left-leaning website, under the headline, “Inside Baseball Hall of Famer Mariano Rivera’s Far-Right Politics....

“This video on gives wrong information. It says when a person stops breathing, give chest compressions. That is wrong. If the person’s heart is still pumping, you do not do chest compressions – you start rescue breathing.” This reader is correct that victims who are not breathing – but still have a pulse – would get artificial ventilation rather than CPR from a healthcare provider. Any EMT or paramedic would certainly check a pulse, but in layperson CPR the standard of care is to perform CPR on anyone who is not breathing – no need to check a pulse....

Sunday marks the first night of the holiday, also known as the Festival of Lights. For the next eight days, Jewish people will gather with friends and family to light their menorahs and remember a miracle that God performed thousands of years earlier. When Antiochus IV Epiphanes ruled Judea, the land known today as Israel, he outlawed the Jewish religion and ordered everyone to worship Greek gods. After his soldiers marched into Jerusalem, they desecrated the Second Temple and erected an idol....

The White House is now considering candidates from the military and Congress. One option is to elevate Acting CIA Director Adm. William Studeman. Other contenders: National Security Agency chief Rear Adm. John McConnell, retired Air Force Gen. Lee Buffer and Rep. Norm Dieks.

The half-hour performances are intended not merely to stir the curiosity of the school kids who dominate the 500-seat auditorium, but also to advance the emerging field of evolutionary robotics. Noel Sharkey, a computer-science professor at Sheffield University, is using the contest as a Darwinian breeding ground, where the weak robots perish and the strong survive to perpetuate their kind. The idea is to build dumb robots with the capability to “evolve,” leave them alone and see how smart they become....

White House deputy chief of staff Harold Ickes showed up in the Oval Office one day last month wearing a bright orange sport coat. Ickes is notorious for his defiantly unstylish wardrobe, with its ill-fitting suits, ankle-length pants and belt buckle worn above the left hip. “Harold,” said President Clinton, “you look more like a Southern tobacco dealer than a New York corporate lawyer.” Ickes, the irascible son of FDR’s legendary Interior secretary, doesn’t mind the razzing he gets about his clothes, the Skippy peanut butter and Ritz crackers he keeps in his West Wing office for meals or the way he clumsily switches between red and black pens while taking notes during meetings (red for urgent matters, black for routine)....

The 27-year-old has grown frustrated over the club’s inability to compete at the highest level, having seen his side fall out of contention to secure Champions League football for next season. Spurs have long been reluctant to entertain bids for their talisman but the England captain is hoping that they will soften their stance after his long service to the club. State of play for Kane’s future Daniel Levy will demand a huge fee for Kane - who prefers a move within the Premier League – as he is on a long-term deal until 2024....

The aim of this surgery is to remove problematic tissue and connect the healthy portion of the colon to a colostomy bag. Patients that are healthy enough to undergo it may have a second procedure, called “reversal,” which involves reconnecting the healthy portions of the colon and restoring normal function. This complicated treatment requires significant preparation, a lengthy hospital stay, as well as lifestyle changes afterward. It’s important to understand the basics of how Hartmann’s procedure works, how to prepare, and what life looks like after this procedure....
