The Cavaliers' first-year forward will miss at least three weeks with a strained left knee, the latest setback for the No. 1 overall pick who has been a major disappointment for Cleveland. Bennett underwent an MRI on Sunday that showed a strain to his left patellar tendon. He played eight minutes in Saturday's home loss to the New York Knicks. The injury is another obstacle for Bennett, who has shown some improvement lately and signs of developing into a rotational player....

And before his best game of the season—a performance of 10 points, four rebounds and three blocks against the Wolves—he revealed that he has played through "little, sharp pains" in his knees, according to The Cleveland Plain Dealer. Because of the knee injuries that have caused him so much trouble, Bynum is unsure whether he will ever regain his explosiveness, he told The Plain Dealer. If his physical ability doesn't return, Bynum plans to rely on his footwork and overall skill....

While Cyberpunk 2077 still isn’t where CD Projekt Red wants it to be, the game is undoubtedly in a much different state than it was a year ago. Thanks to updates throughout the year, improving the game’s performance, minimizing bugs, and a litany of other fixes, Cyberpunk 2077 has seen an upsurge in positive reception on Steam, as many people are likely trying the game for the first time. It is still a work in progress though, as CD Projekt Red has two major updates planned for the game in early 2022, along with definitive next-gen versions coming eventually as well....

The patients’ physicians at UAB attribute her recovery to the high virus-neutralizing antibody titer present in the donated plasma, which the patient received from her son-in-law.  The case adds to a growing body of research that the quality of the convalescent plasma—which is typically determined by the donor’s course of infection—matters. “It turns out they have to get pretty sick to generate a good immune response and good antibodies against the virus if you’re naturally infected,” Randall Davis, MD, a professor in the UAB Department of Medicine and senior scientist at the O’Neal Comprehensive Cancer Center, tells Verywell....

Railing against all this can sound clueless. Don’t you understand how hospitals are? Have to be? Kaiser Permanente’s Dr. Preston Maring, associate physician in chief of the 346-bed Oakland Medical Center, surely understands. Nevertheless, a simple “What if?” moment Maring experienced three years ago led to an exciting pilot program, launched this August, to serve fresh, local, sustainably grown produce to patients in Kaiser’s 19 northern California hospitals. But much had to happen before gorgeous strawberries could make it onto those trays....

According to a new blog post penned by returning BioWare veteran Casey Hudson, the developer has learned a lot from Mass Effect’s failures. Hudson explains that the response to Mass Effect: Andromeda led to a “defining moment in refocusing BioWare’s mission,” as the studio acknowledges that it needs to “delight players with new experiences and innovation” and “stay focused on the importance of the world, character, and storytelling elements that players expect from our games....

Democrats want to tackle a plethora of subject areas, including relief for state and local governments, food stamps, voting by mail, infrastructure and small-business aid. As a split emerges among the GOP, top Republicans on Capitol Hill are hesitant about further swift spending, while other members say there’s more to be done. President Donald Trump is pushing for infrastructure funding and payroll tax cuts but has derided Democratic endeavors, such as giving states more money and vote-by-mail....

The new Snow Technology feature is a $50 add-on to the company’s regularly priced $89 Foam Pillow. Casper took its foam pillow and added what it calls HeatDelete Bands to get its Snow Technology. Foam typically gets warmer than other materials, so it makes sense that the company would want to find a way to chill the foam pillow beyond the steps it has already taken. But, the question remains, Does this pillow with Snow Technology provide an arctic freeze?...

In one corner, you have Club America, a team a year away from celebrating its 100th anniversary. A CONCACAF juggernaut with millions of fans, a historic home stadium and a trophy case overflowing with a dozen Liga MX titles and five CONCACAF championships. In the other corner stands the Montreal Impact, a club in just its fourth season of top-flight competition in Major League Soccer. A team with no playoff victories, let alone a league title to its name....

In the footage, posted by user @eugeniozbbz12, a kitten can be seen sitting between the front legs of a husky, with another dog sat beside them. Both dogs are panting to cool down in the heat, and the kitten looks at them perplexed. The young cat then decides to open its mouth, clearly trying to emulate the bigger animals, but with not much success because its tongue is not visible....

In the video, shared on TikTok earlier this month by the cat’s owner, under the username Patsysdad, the ginger cat can be seen tilting his head towards both of his owners, one at a time, to receive kisses on the head, that he welcomed with “sleepy eyes,” a sign he was comfortable. According to Vet West cats contain certain bacteria in their mouths that cause gum disease, and as predators, they also eat animals and insects that may harbor diseases....

During the operation, according to KATV, six-month-old kitten Batman was divested of not only the family jewels, but also a significant chunk of his right ear. Now, his owners, the Freeman family, can barely stand to look at him, Danyelle Freeman told KATV. “I immediately started crying,” Freeman, who adopted Batman in December, said of the moment she saw her pet post-op. “It was overwhelming. I’m trying to be strong for my kids, but at the same time I couldn’t help it....

The 15-year-old tabby, named No-no, disappeared from a neighborhood in Nanaimo, a city on the east coast of Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada, in August 2017. It was found near a campground and RV park, more than seven miles from home. The British Columbia Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (BC SPCA) said in a Facebook post on February 24 that its staff had spotted an ID tattoo on the cat’s ear and were able to use the identification to trace its original owners....

Peggy White shares her home with three cats, Gulliver, Herman and Frankie, and two dogs, but there’s no shortage of space for her four-legged friends. White, thought to be from Oklahoma, turned a walk-in closet into a feline haven, with fairy lights, plants, a fluffy rug, cat beds, steps leading to various levels and a mirror. But it’s also kitted out with a water fountain, a hanging bed in the middle of the room, a disco ball and a stripper stage with a pole....

This rotation is because the game world runs in real time, with seasonal variations and new features constantly on the horizon. One of the most notable changes is to the fish and bugs that can be caught on the islands. Each month a few of these creatures leave and few more arrive, to fit realistic migratory patterns. So for those bug-catchers hoping to disgust Blathers with a full collection this year, here’s which bugs are leaving at the end of May....

“This is a very difficult and painful decision,” read a “Letter to the Faithful” sent from the Diocese of Rochester on Wednesday. “We believe this is the only way we can provide just compensation for all who suffered the egregious sin of sex abuse, while ensuring the continued commitment of the diocese to the mission of Christ.” In filings on Thursday, the Diocese insisted it “does not seek Chapter 11 relief to shirk or avoid responsibility for any past misconduct by clergy…[or] to hide the truth or deny any person a day in court....

Martial’s return to form typifies what Mourinho’s Man Utd were missing The Uruguay international joined PSG from Napoli in 2013 and mainly spent his first three seasons in the French capital out wide, with Zlatan Ibrahimovic occupying the No.10 position. This did not stop him from netting 81 goals over the course of the past three campaigns, though, and he has added 19 more in the opening stages of 2016-17 following the departure of Ibrahimovic to Manchester United....

The midfielder injured the plantaris tendon in his right foot during the 6-0 victory over Ludogorets in the Champions League on October 19. Man Utd beat Arsenal & Chelsea to signing of Ajax wonderkid Arsene Wenger has insisted Cazorla’s return was being delayed only by inflammation, adding that he had suffered “no setback” before news of the three-month absence was delayed. However, Cazorla revealed on Instagram that his doctor has predicted a two-month lay-off after undergoing surgery....
