  1. NATO aircraft scrambled during major Russian drone, missile strike on Ukraine A drone also crossed into Lithuania from Belarus, an official told ABC News. ByDavid Brennan July 28, 2025, 6:23 AM 1:04 Trump says he will reduce 50-day timeline for Russia's Putin to make peace dealPresident Donald Trump expressed frustration with Russian President Vladimir Putin and said he would reduce the 50-day timeline he gave Russia to agree to a peace deal with Ukraine. LONDON -- Polish and allied NATO aircraft were scrambled in response to a large Russian drone and missile attack launched into Ukraine on Sunday night, the Polish military's Operational Command said in a statement. "Polish and allied duty aircraft have been scrambled and ground-based air defense and radar reconnaissance systems have reached the highest state of readiness," the command said in a statement posted to X in the early hours of Monday morning, as hundreds of drones and missiles targeted sites across Ukraine. The alert lasted for around three hours, after which the command posted another statement saying that "deployed forces and resources have returned to standard operational activities." NATO's Air Command and Swedish JAS 39 Gripen fighters stationed in Poland took part in the response, the Polish Operational Command said. An official at Lithuania's Defense Ministry confirmed to ABC News that a drone also crossed into Lithuania from Belarusian airspace. Russian forces regularly route drones through Belarusian airspace to attack Ukrainian targets from the north. A search for the drone was still underway as of Monday morning, the official said. Russia launched 324 drones and seven missiles into Ukraine overnight, the Ukrainian air force said in a statement published on Telegram. Of those, 309 drones and two missiles were shot down or suppressed, it said, with 15 strike drones and two missiles impacting across three locations. During his visit to the U.K. on Monday, President Donald Trump expressed frustration with Russian President Vladimir Putin over the continued long-range attacks. The president said he would shorten the 50-day window offered to Putin earlier this month in which to agree to a ceasefire deal or face punishing sanctions and tariffs. "I'm disappointed in President Putin, very disappointed in him," Trump told reporters. "So we're going to have to look and I'm going to reduce that 50 days that I gave him to lesser number, because I think I already know the answer what's going to happen." At least eight people were injured in Kyiv after a Russian drone hit a residential highrise, the head of the city's military administration said in a post to Telegram. Andriy Yermak, the head of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy's office, wrote on Telegram that the most recent barrage was evidence of Putin's lack of commitment to a proposed ceasefire. "This is how Putin responds to calls to end the war and sit at the negotiating table," he wrote. "Russian air attacks are still ongoing, with civilian infrastructure, homes and people, including in Kyiv, already affected." "There is no alternative to sanctions, strengthening Ukraine's long-range capabilities and tough actions against Putin's circle and Putin himself," Yermak wrote. "He wants nothing but war and Ukraine's defeat. And there will be no defeat." Referring to the scrambling of NATO aircraft and the drone crossing into Lithuania, Yermak added, "The Russians and their satellites are testing NATO's reaction. Drones entering the airspace of the Baltic countries are signals that cannot be ignored." Zelenskyy also posted to Telegram noting that Kyiv is "constantly strengthening the Ukrainian air shield and it is very important to maintain full understanding among partners about how exactly they can help. Step by step, we are closing the funding gap for drone production and this week I will have new talks with partners regarding this task." "Restoration and rescue work is currently underway everywhere it is needed," the president added of the overnight drone and missile impacts. "This particularly concerns electricity supply. Necessary assistance is being provided to the wounded." Russia's Defense Ministry, meanwhile, said its forces shot down seven Ukrainian drones overnight. ABC News' Hannah Demissie, Michelle Stoddart, Lalee Ibssa and Fidel Pavlenko contributed to this report.
  2. Who are the obvious top 3? I see WIngo as one then Livingstone. Is Moore really the obvious starter over Mosley? And we hear McCutcheon is coming along. It's gonna be a real battle.
  3. Moore is also a good blocker and besides being a little faster is a little quicker and has better acceleration. Still, I see round 4 for him.
  4. And Cruel to Be Kind may be the best Nick Lowe song.
  5. I agree although it does happen occasionally where a guy without elite traits has a highly successful pro career. Personally I see him similar to Jordan Whittington who was drafted in the 6th but Moore has a slightly higher skill and a better QB.
  6. This is true - plus back then a lot of the drugs were pretty cardiotoxic. Nowadays, biologic side-effects are not quite as bad as the original chemotherapeutics which targeted fast growing and dividing cells.
  7. fuck, how many pages are these CVs that you can’t make it through?
  8. Suck it up pussies.
  9. I know what the charges could be but what crime is he going to be convicted of assuming he didn't already talk to the cops and has a decent lawyer? The shooter is dead so that guy isn't going to squeal.
  10. Here is how things stand on Tuesday, July 22: Fighting A large-scale Russian drone and missile attack on Kyiv killed two people and wounded 15, including a 12-year-old, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said. The attack caused widespread damage, including when a drone hit the entrance to a subway station in Kyiv’s Shevchenkivskyi district, where people had taken cover. Ukraine’s Air Force said Russia launched 426 drones and 24 missiles in the overnight attack, making it one of Russia’s largest aerial assaults in months. A Russian drone attack on Ukraine’s northeastern Sumy region injured 11 people, including a five-year-old boy, Governor Oleh Hryhorov said on Telegram. Ukraine’s Air Force said it downed or jammed 224 Russian drones and missiles, while another 203 drones disappeared from radars. The Russian Ministry of Defence said that Russian air defence systems downed 132 Ukrainian drones on Monday. The governor of the Russian-occupied Zaporizhia region, Yevgeny Balitsky, said that fragments of Ukrainian drones fell on a kindergarten and a fire station in the region’s port city of Berdyansk but there were no casualties. Military aid Norway is ready to help fund the deployment of US Patriot missile systems for Ukraine’s air defences, Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Store told reporters at a joint news conference with German Chancellor Friedrich Merz in Berlin. The Netherlands will also make a “substantial contribution” to the delivery of Patriot air defence systems to Ukraine, the Dutch newspaper De Telegraaf reported on Monday, quoting the country’s Minister of Defence Ruben Brekelmans. Zelenskyy wrote on X that “a decision by French companies to begin manufacturing drones in Ukraine” is “highly valuable”. Ukrainian Minister for Defence Denys Shmyhal said the country needs $6bn to close this year’s defence procurement gap, in an online meeting with Western allies. Ukraine will also need at least $120bn for defence spending next year, Shmyhal adding. He added talks are ongoing with NATO and EU members as Ukraine seeks $60bn in funding from partners. The Ukraine Defence Contact Group meeting of high-level military donors to Kyiv was led by the United Kingdom’s defence secretary, John Healey, and his German counterpart, Boris Pistorius. US Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth and NATO leader Mark Rutte were among the attendees. Politics and diplomacy New talks between Russia and Ukraine will take place in Turkiye on Wednesday, Zelenskyy said in his daily public address, with more details to be released on Tuesday. “A lot of diplomatic work lies ahead,” Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters earlier on Monday, commenting on the prospects for a breakthrough with Kyiv on ending the war. French Foreign Minister Jean-Noel Barrot emphasised France’s support to Ukraine in a surprise visit to Kyiv. Ukraine’s security services detained an official from the National Anti-Corruption Bureau of Ukraine on accusations of spying for Russia. Italy’s Royal Palace of Caserta cancelled a concert by Russian conductor Valery Gergiev, a vocal backer of Russian President Vladimir Putin, after uproar from Ukraine and its supporters.

  12. Man Dies After Being Sucked into MRI Machine Summarize July 19, 2025 by David Jones A tragic incident unfolded on Long Island when a 61-year-old man was fatally injured after being pulled into an MRI machine due to a metal chain he was wearing around his neck. The accident occurred on Wednesday at Nassau County Open MRI in Westbury, according to local law enforcement. The man, whose identity has not been disclosed, was not a patient at the facility but was accompanying a relative who was scheduled for a medical scan. He was not authorized to be in the imaging room, but reportedly entered the area due to his relative’s distress. Witnesses reported that the man ignored instructions to stay out of the MRI room, entering because his relative was in severe pain. The powerful magnetic field of the MRI machine attracted the large metal chain he was wearing, pulling him into the machine. Following the incident, the man experienced a severe medical emergency. He was rushed to North Shore University Hospital, where he was pronounced dead on Thursday. The exact cause of his death has not been officially disclosed. Dr. Payal Sud, a staff doctor at North Shore University Hospital, speculated on the possible injuries that could have resulted from the incident. “If this was a chain that was wrapped around the neck, I could imagine any kind of strangulation injuries that could happen,” Sud said. “Asphyxiation, cervical spine injuries.” An investigation into the incident is currently underway. However, authorities have stated that they do not suspect any criminal activity in relation to the man’s death. The tragic event serves as a stark reminder of the potential dangers of disregarding safety protocols in medical facilities.
  13. What do you guys have against Google?
  14. Lefty loosy - righty tighty
  15. And don’t waste downs on fade routes which rarely work.
  16. Yeah but he finally got a computer with spellcheck, so that’s a move in the positive direction.
  17. I do have a friend who was a good high school football player, went to Texas and produces low-budget, Indy stuff in Hollywood. He’s a good guy and would probably help with advice especially if you mention my name and UT. Also, Lawrence Gordon is a family friend, but probably too old and too hard to get through to even with connections.
  18. on mom’s side or dad’s side? I know the mom’s side.
