“Reports claiming that Ms. Hicks was involved in conversations about ‘hush money’ payments on October 8, 2016, or knew that payments were being discussed, are simply wrong,” attorney Robert Trout said in a statement on Friday. Trout added that Hicks “stands by her truthful testimony” to the House Judiciary Committee last month and will be complying with any further inquiries from lawmakers on the issue. On Thursday, committee chairman Jerrold Nadler demanded Hicks return to Capitol Hill for a second round of questioning on the campaign finance saga....

Across Mexico and the Southwestern United States, thousands of others have already completed the journey. Latino conversions to Judaism started in the 1980s, but lately they have been attracting the attention of social scientists and firing the passions of Jewish-born Mexicans, who generally refuse to accept the newcomers. Many converts say they are descendants of Inquisition-era Jews from Spain who escaped execution by becoming Catholics, but continued practicing Judaism in secret....

Horizon Forbidden West: How to Get Oseram Artificer Legendary Outfit The Oseram Artificer Legendary Outfit is arguably the best armor in Horizon Forbidden West, and players that want to claim it should begin by heading to Keruf’s Salvage Camp just southwest of Barren Light. At this location, fans can initiate a contract called Keruf’s Salvage Unlimited, which centers around completing additional contracts for four salvagers. One of those salvagers can be found in the camp with Keruf, and his position, along with the positions of the other three salvagers, have been marked on the map that is below....

While the first game was located in post-apocalyptic areas surrounding Colorado, Horizon: Forbidden West will have Aloy trekking through the states of Nevada, Utah, and California, matching up with past information about the game taking place between Utah and the Pacific Ocean. The game will feature a bigger open-world than before by capitalizing on the PS5’s next-gen hardware, while still allowing players to enjoy the game on the PS4....

The machines in Horizon Zero Dawn were amazing, but Forbidden West has already expanded upon the existing catalog in a huge way. Many of the machines from Zero Dawn will be returning, but fans have already seen a total of ten new machines in the combined game footage and trailers. Guerrilla is probably keeping the best surprises hidden, which says a lot about the machines still to come. The new Forbidden West machines are diverse, however, there’s a huge focus on reptiles this time around and they look like they could be the showstoppers....

Having experienced a change in leadership and waves of public scrutiny, the Odyssey’s conception makes for an interesting story. Though it’s one that ultimately ends in tragedy, at least according to the datapoints in Horizon Zero Dawn. RELATED: How to Avoid Horizon: Forbidden West Spoilers A Solution to the Climate Crisis In the 2030s — nearly a millennium before Aloy’s birth — the world was experiencing a global climate crisis....

Charlotte coach James Borrego hadn’t make Kaminsky part of his rotation for much of this season, but that was going to change, at least for one night. “He told me today just to compete. Help us on offense. Defend. Rebound. Do the things you know how to do,” Kaminsky said. “I just tried to do that.” He did just what the Hornets needed in a game they really needed to have....

“A lot of the chemicals and disinfectants and cleaners that hospitals use to clean their surfaces, to clean their environments are not effective against Candida auris,” Dr. Floyd Wormley, associate provost for research and dean of graduate studies at Texas Christian University, told Newsweek on Friday. “Therefore, it’s able to stick around, even after you do cleaning. So, it’s very important that you utilize disinfectants that have been shown to be effective against Candida auris when you’re disinfecting the hospital environment, particularly when you know that it’s there,” Wormley said....

On Friday, physicians, nurses and other hospital employees gathered at a large demonstration to protest a management decision that prioritized the immunizations of staff who weren’t working directly with COVID-19 patients. “Residents and fellows were essentially not included in the first round of vaccines despite working 80+ hours per week in the hospital treating COVID-19 patients,” Dr. Earth Hasassari, a psychiatric doctor at SMC, tweeted. Higher ups at SMC had allocated vaccines to some administrators and doctors who are working from home and not in contact with the virus instead of staff who are working on the frontline....

The School of the West is a homeschooling curriculum that offers paid and free lectures for various subjects, including the basics: math, science, history, art and language arts.

Until last spring, Williams was a teacher in Page, Arizona, before he left on his own accord....

According to Honda, the wiring harness in the third-row seat accessory power socket could be damaged. During the manufacturing process, the wiring could have been pinched between the rear trim panel and metal body. If the wiring harness is damaged, it could potentially cause a short circuit, igniting the plastic interior panel covering. While Honda is aware of three fires, no injuries have yet been reported. Owners will be notified of the recall via mail by mid-March and will be urged to visit their dealership to check if their wiring harness is affected....

The new model will be built at Honda’s Performance Manufacturing Center in Marysville, Ohio. Honda has previously said that battery electric vehicles (BEVs) and FCEVs will represent 100 percent of its global auto sales by 2040. “Hydrogen fuel cell has big potential to change the game from environmental and technological perspectives, but unfortunately, there has been little focus on hydrogen product and infrastructure development. Instead, the industry has chosen battery-electric vehicles as the way forward and that’s where the majority of attention for development and build-out is,” Paul Waatti, manager of industry analysis at AutoPacific told Newsweek....

The Education Bureau of China’s Hong Kong Special Administrative Region accused the teacher of committing a premeditated act in violation of Hong Kong’s Basic Law, its de facto constitution that protects freedom of assembly and freedom of speech—neither of which exist in mainland China.

They did this by making it taller with an 18:9 aspect ratio instead of 16:9. 18:9 is super fashionable, but until now with the 7X, was out of reach for those on a budget. Even the OnePlus 5T costs £449, which is the very top of mid-range. The Honor looks a lot like Huawei’s Mate 10 Pro, but saves on cost to bring the price right down. Honor 7X: Price The 7X replaces the 6X, which cost £224 when it launched....

That’s the hook, farfetched but catchy, of Adrian Lyne’s Indecent Proposal. Granted, it’s the same hook as “Honeymoon in Vegas,” but you can bet the serious fellow who brought you “Flashdance,” “Fatal Attraction” and “9 1/2 Weeks” isn’t going to stock his movie with flying Elvises. Too bad: this solemn clunker could have used something that flew- wit, Wallendas, woodpeckers or maybe a decent plot. To be fair, there is a helicopter that whisks Moore off to Redford’s yacht for her million-dollar night....
