That said, the books do draw out what could be a problem for Clinton in a general election campaign: her perceived weakness as a manager. Bernstein’s book, in particular, offers a harsh recounting of Clinton’s disastrous turn running her husband’s 1993 effort to provide universal health care. In this portrait, she is politically tone deaf, secretive and polarizing—and alienates Senate allies she needs to get the bill passed. Bernstein argues that many of the non-Monica scandals of the Clinton White House, like Whitewater and the firings of travel office staff, were exacerbated by Hillary’s weak executive impulses....

A comparison of the two characters was included in the lawsuit....

McBride is a solid fan of this Ford film about an embittered man’s hunt for his niece who’s been kidnapped by Comanches in 1868. He unhesitatingly calls the movie “a masterpiece,” and to bolster his case, he invokes the testimony of critics like Andrew Sarris and filmmakers like John Milius and Martin Scorsese. On the other side of the argument stand dissidents like Scott Eyman, another Ford biographer, and the critic, filmmaker and Ford buff Lindsey Anderson, perhaps the most eloquent naysayer, who called the movie “an impressive work, the work of a great director; but it is not among John Ford’s masterpieces....

For many years, Blizzard has let players decide how they want to pay for the monthly subscription fee via an automatic payment method or redeeming a set amount of days.

Unfortunately, the latest adjustment in the Blizzard shop has stripped away agency from players used to buying game time on demand....

Game designed Eric Lang announced the game on Twitter, claiming that the new Bloodborne content will be “simple but highly deep and interactive.” The game will be officially licensed, with gameplay based around the PS4 game’s Chalice Dungeon runs. According to Lang, players will compete to slay monsters while collecting their blood but must be careful not to die. Judging by Bloodborne’s hardcore death mechanic, it’s likely that a player’s death will lead to a loss of blood, and therefore their chance at victory....

In the Avalanche’s 6-3 win over the Blues, Kadri hit St. Louis defenseman Justin Faulk high and hard.

When he was with the Maple Leafs in 2018 and 2019, Kadri was suspended in two consecutive postseason series for hits against the Bruins....

It started, as all battles will from that day on, with the push of a button. More than 400 miles from Baghdad, aboard a blacked-out battleship, the coming of war was announced with a raucous electronic bleat that lasted barely a second. It was followed by a sound like every door in the Pentagon slammed at once, a boom that shook the dust of World War II out of the ventilation ducts in the engine rooms far below....
