Putin held several indoor engagements Monday and said he may have to quarantine soon, although Putin and the staffer are both fully vaccinated and the president tested negative for COVID-19. Putin said Tuesday that several people in his “immediate circle” were infected with the coronavirus. Spokesman Dmitry Peskov said that Putin is “absolutely healthy” although coming in contact with someone who had the virus. Putin has received Russia’s Sputnik V vaccination and Peskov insisted that no one’s health was endangered by Monday’s meetings....

A green passport will be issued by the ministry two weeks after the second of the required two vaccine shots is received by the individual. “This passport will show that a person is vaccinated and will give a number of advantages such as not needing to quarantine, entry to all kinds of culture events, restaurants, and so on,” the Ministry of Health’s Director-General Chezy Levy told Israel’s Channel 12....

Last week, vaccination slots at the hospital system’s public registration site were reportedly fully booked through March. But the donors who had access to appointments “by invite” only were sent an access code that allowed them to register for vaccination bookings, according to The Seattle Times. The chief development officer at the Bellevue hospital system, Molly Stearns, was reported to have sent an email on Friday to around 110 donors informing them that slots were available....

“Dak Prescott was splitting third-team reps with Jameil Showers,” said Linehan, referring to an undrafted QB who was since converted to safety. “The media was all over Dak, asking what was wrong with him.” Those concerns quickly faded after an unexpected opportunity presented itself. Prescott replaced an injured Tony Romo and exceeded all expectations by enjoying one of the most successful rookie seasons in NFL history. MORE: NFL predictions for 2017...

Gathers, a sixth-round pick by Dallas in the 2016 NFL Draft, will miss the Cowboys’ season opener, Sept. 8 vs. the Giants. The suspension will not affect Gathers’ status during the offseason or preseason, including exhibition games. Gathers caught three passes last season for 45 yards. He appeared in 15 games and was used primarily as a blocker. The Cowboys kept four tight ends on their roster last season, and with the return of 11-time Pro Bowl tight end Jason Witten after a one-year retirement, Gathers’ roster spot could be in peril....

Collins was messing around with fellow rookie offensive lineman Laurence Gibson and decided to go against him one-on-one. Gibson did his best to play defensive back, but maybe he should stick to blocking.

Down by 12 points with the ball and facing a fourth-and-17 at its 16, Dallas (2-6) elected to take a delay of game penalty and then snap the ball out the back of the end zone while in punt formation, resulting in a safety. That made it a 14-point deficit — still a two-possession game — with 3:55 to play and gave the Cowboys a chance to recover an onside free kick from their 20....

Some see landing La’el Collins as a luxury move, and more see it as Dallas taking yet another risk. Bottom line: It’s a brilliant and necessary move, with the Jones’ keeping their best asset in mind: quarterback Tony Romo.

After being put into bat, Jamaica Tallawahs got off to a stellar start and put up 41 runs for the first wicket midway through the powerplay. Following a series of cameos, they put up 166-7 on the board with the top score being just 27 by Carlos Brathwaite. In reply, St.Kitts and Nevis Patriots equally matched their start, but the middle order could not capitalize on it. Their winning run was on the line with an uphill task ahead....

The decision was made due to insufficient evidence and confirmed at a hearing at Preston Crown Court on Tuesday. Bettison, who at the time was an officer with South Yorkshire Police, was charged last year with four offences of misconduct in public office. The 62-year-old was alleged to have told lies about the “culpability of fans” in the 1989 tragedy, which saw 96 Liverpool supporters killed in a crush during their team’s abandoned FA Cup semi-final against Nottingham Forest....

According to Staten, Crackdown 3 will feature a “15-hour-plus campaign” for single-player gameplay fans to enjoy, and it will not only include story beats, but also should “train [one] in how to play the game” if they want to get their “skills sharp enough to be competitive in multiplayer”. While the Microsoft Studios Creative Director didn’t allude to what the plot will contain, he did say that the campaign will at the very least provide a “fictional context for the world”....

Victor, a 6-8, 225 pound power forward prospect from New Orleans (St. Augustine High), announced his decision at a ceremony in his hometown. He’ll play for national powerhouse Findlay Prep as a senior. Victor chose Arizona over LSU, the most prominent school in his home state. MORE: Sporting News’ Top 25 prospects for 2014 Victor is the second addition for the Wildcats' 2014 class, and should ably fill the void left by Aaron Gordon, who likely is one-and-done after this season....

Toys for Bob let the world know about this lack of microtransactions in a Tweet, through which it also confirmed that the “Totally Tubular” 90s throwback skins are bonuses being included in “all digital versions of the game.” In a game that will have over 100 levels of content with collectibles strewn throughout, it should put many fans at ease to know its in-game purchases will likely lean more in the direction of DLC levels rather than pay-to-win options....

This mod is essentially a pallet swap for Crash, replacing him as the main playable character. Cortex has all of the same moves and attacks as Crash, but feels unique by having his own voice clips and a few custom animations. A second file that can be downloaded replaces Crash’s life counter with Cortex’s, as well as replacing the traditional Aku Aku masks with the evil Uka Uka masks....

The individual playing through this level felt it best to blitz through it at a breakneck pace in order to complete the stage’s Time Trial challenge. The Activision employee was able to clock in at an impressive time to be sure, allowing fans to get an idea of what’ll take if they want to be the very best at bombing through Crash Bandicoot N.

Falfurrias reportedly is the largest checkpoint on the Southwest border....

“The news that we lost one of our own is devastating to me, our team and our coaches," coach Dean Hood said in a statement. “We pray that God will give strength to Joey’s family during their time of mourning.

The N Sane Trilogy was shown at PAX East this past weekend, with representatives guiding players through a demo. Now, a video has appeared on Twitter that seems to suggest that the game will end up on both the PlayStation 4 and the PC. “It’s 4K on PS4 and PC, at 60 frames per second,” says the representative assigned to a row of televisions that are being used to play the game....
