The company has pledged to challenge the ruling. It also said the ruling would not change its “commitment to diversity, inclusion and equity for all.” On August 5, 2013, Novant Health Inc. hired David Duvall to serve as the company’s senior vice president of marketing and communications. Then, on July 30, 2018, the company fired him without warning, he said in court documents. Novant’s severance plan said that any executive terminated without cause would, “under normal circumstances,” receive 30 days’ notice, Duvall’s lawsuit stated....

A sense of inevitability with Assassin’s Creed DLC hasn’t become too predictable. If anything, a clear line of progression can be seen that indicates that Ubisoft and its many studios are dedicated to refining the overall experience in some respects, whilst making every piece of DLC content distinctly unique. To this end each game’s respective first paid DLC, Assassin’s Creed Valhalla: Wrath of the Druids and Assassin’s Creed Odyssey: Legacy of the First Blade, share some striking similarities and differences between one another....

Perhaps one of the biggest indications of how the game struggled to get a foothold with fans came when Marvel’s Avengers was first revealed at E3 in 2019. As soon as the trailer started, many viewers took issue with how different the characters looked compared to their MCU counterparts. However, Crystal Dynamics was quick to correct many of these criticisms, meaning while they are clearly different, each character better lines up with expectations of fans despite it all....

Hosted by Honduras, the tournament not only handed out four berths for the 2023 FIFA U-20 World Cup in Indonesia (to the four semifinalists), but it will also determined the two teams that will participate in the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris (the two finalists). The USA, defending champions of this competition after winning the most recent edition held in 2018, became the first team to clinch a semifinal berth and a ticket to the 2023 World Cup....

The New York native has represented his parents’ homeland since 2015, but saw his first major minutes for Les Grenadiers this month as they looked to book a place in a playoff to qualify for the Gold Cup. To do that, they had to get past Suriname and Trinidad and Tobago. Haiti dominated Suriname but allowed two late goals in a 4-2 victory. That meant Haiti would advance with a win, a draw or a defeat by fewer than two goals against Trinidad and Tobago thanks to goal difference....

But it is, because seeing is believing. And everybody who pays attention to the NFL’s hiring practices knows that interviewing is not hiring. Too often, interviewing is checking off a box, then chasing after just about anybody except them — then repeating the cycle the next offseason. Those who keep NFL team’s feet to the fire about the spirit of the Rooney Rule are torn this time of year. Interviews have merit of their own, because they lead to future interviews, and they get minority coaching candidates into the pipeline....

Scheffler told The Associated Press on Wednesday that having three concussions over the past four years had "a lot" to do with his choice. He had 258 receptions for 3,207 yards and 22 touchdowns in his eight-year career. The Detroit Lions released Scheffler in October. He later had workouts with Chicago and Kansas City and says there was "moderate" interest in him as a free agent this offseason. Denver drafted him in the second round in 2006 out of Western Michigan and traded him four years later to Detroit....

The situation is rather complex, but it is reminiscent of how Riot treated the League of Legends competitive circuit of the EU back in the day. The League of Legends European Championship (LEC) came into being following the rebrand of the EU LCS, and it flourished in terms of viewership. G2 Esports, a European team, winning the Mid-Season Invitational (MSI) in 2019 was the cherry on top. But before the rebrand that gave birth to the LEC, the publisher’s handling of the EU LCS got a lot of flak from fans....

What better way to be safe than to purchase Champ Prophylactics. If you have about $150 lying around, you could be the owner of these old-timey condoms. I wouldn’t recommend using them, but they’re a nice keepsake to have. Ted Williams and Jack Dempsey are featured on two of the boxes, with an unidentified football player on the other. Williams and Dempsey each had three children, so perhaps they weren’t the best spokesmen for contraceptives....

The potential removal of the holiday comes as many states are working to rid themselves of remaining Confederate symbols and statues amid the ongoing reckoning with racial injustice in the United States. The South Carolina bill began as a proposal to add another state holiday on June 19 to coincide with the Juneteenth celebration, which commemorates the emancipation of slaves in the U.S. On June 19, 1865, two months after the end of the Civil War, Union General Gordon Granger arrived in Galveston, Texas, and informed slaves that they had been freed....

For a major public official to admit profound error is extraordinarily rare, perhaps unprecedented, in American history. Of course, losing a war was unprecedented for the United States, too. But even failed efforts rarely yield apology. In his memoirs, Jefferson Davis could not bring himself to acknowledge major error by the Confederacy. And Richard Nixon and Henry Kissinger, Who could have exited Vietnam in 1969 on the same terms they obtained in 1973 (more than 19,000 American lives later), never expressed the slightest contrition over their choices....

To be sure, neither of us initially appreciated just how charming a name Leslie Leslie is. Leslie herself was discomfited by its essential preposterousness and stuck with her serviceable but lusterless maiden name till we’d been married about a year. Then, emboldened by the delight our friends took in her prospective appellation, she at last took my name, in the process doubling her own. She immediately discovered that her new name is both a guaranteed conversational icebreaker and a sure means of detecting a sense of humor....

Widespread reports on Thursday emerged suggesting Everton had accepted a £75million bid from United for the Belgium international. However, conflicting claims - reportedly coming from sources at Goodison Park - insisted the Toffees had not sanctioned the sale of Lukaku, who has also been heavily linked with a return to former club Chelsea. United’s pursuit of Real Madrid striker Alvaro Morata was said to have been ended by their interest in Lukaku as the transfer market dominoes begin to fall....

2021 COLLEGE FANTASY RANKINGS:Quarterback | Running back | Wide receiver | Tight end | D/ST | Top 200 It’s important to note college kicking is often unreliable and hard to predict. The safest bet is to target kickers on high-scoring offenses with a history of decent accuracy. A smart move would be stacking a high-profile QB, like Spencer Rattler, with his kicker. This will likely give you PATs when Rattler scores and field goals when the Oklahoma offense stalls....
