Russians gone from Ukraine village, fear and hardship remain

KALYNIVSKE, Ukraine (AP) — When night falls in Tatiana Trofimenko’s village in southern Ukraine, she pours sunflower oil that aid groups gave her into a jar and seals it with a wick-fitted lid. A flick of a match, and the make-do candle is lit. “This is our electricity,” Trofimenko, 68, says. It has been over 11 weeks since Ukrainian forces wrested back her village, Kalynivske, in Kherson province, from Russian occupation. But liberation has not diminished the hardship for residents,… Source link

LeBron James, Lakers furious after missed foul in loss vs. Celtics

LeBron James, Lakers furious after missed foul in loss vs. Celtics

The Boston Celtics picked up a dramatic win over the Los Angeles Lakers in overtime on Saturday, but it took a blatant no-call at the end of regulation to get there. Let’s just say LeBron James and the Lakers weren’t pleased. In the final seconds of regulation with the score tied 105-105, the Lakers had the ball and a chance to end the game. Predictably, the ball ended up in the hands of James, who drove into the paint and missed a would-be game-winning lay-up. Replay soon showed that James was… Source link

In any case, there are still plenty of DFS contests and it’s a good day to capitalize on some of the smaller prize pools. With that in mind, let’s kick things off with my favorite guard on the slate. Guards Darius Garland, CLE vs. LAC ($38) It would be hard to imagine Donovan Mitchell suiting up here after the fall… Source link

Yahoo DFS Hockey: Sunday Picks

Yahoo Plays and Strategy for Sunday, January 29

Sunday is about the toughest day for DFS hockey I can recall. Not only are there only two games, but there’s no favorable matchup to target with all four teams in the top-10 in GAA and three in the top-seven. Here are some players to target, and to avoid, for your DFS lineups. GOALIE Ilya Samsonov, TOR vs. WAS ($30): Samsonov is coming off a poor start, but hopefully he’s fully locked in to face his former squad. And he’s still posted a 2.37 GAA and .916 save percentage. The Caps have also… Source link
