History to us is a wallflower. She sits neglected in the corner, drab and demure, uninvited to the dance. What does it take to get us to notice her? A suitor, of course. The most popular boy in the class, say, who suddenly sees her there and proclaims her beautiful. Someone like . . . Steven Spielberg. Having unleashed his prodigious talent upon the Holocaust in ““Schindler’s List,’’ Spielberg now casts his eyes on an extraordinary event that neither he, nor most of us, was ever taught in school....

With the Biden administration pledging greater diplomatic engagement, defense of democracy and prioritization of human rights, we hope more attention will be given to the fragile situation in Nagorno-Karabakh. In late September, amid a global pandemic and the hotly contested election season, Turkey and Azerbaijan launched a war in Nagorno-Karabakh, also known as Artsakh, that left thousands dead and displaced tens of thousands more. As one of the three co-chairs of the OSCE Minsk Group, set up in 1992 to help resolve conflicts in the region, the United States recently called for a “negotiated, comprehensive, and sustainable settlement” for Artsakh....

“This is a democracy, not a dictatorship,” Governor Kate Brown wrote in a tweet Monday night. “We cannot have secret police abducting people in unmarked vehicles.

NATO forces have played a crucial role in ensuring that simmering tensions in recent months between Kosovo and Serbia do not spill into open conflict. On July 31, shots were fired in northern Kosovo, where ethnic Serbs protested against Kosovo’s new border policies. Serbia views Kosovo as a rogue province. Kosovo declared itself independent in February 2008. The visit of Serbian Prime Minister Ana Brnabić to Kosovo this week is seen as a possible easing of tensions in the short term....

In a statement released by the team, this is what principle owner Russian Mikhail Prokhorov had to say: The move to reassign King comes as no surprise as the General Manager’s impact on the team has only resulted in lots of tax (including repeater’s tax) for the team and just one Playoff series victory. However at a time when the team has been shedding talent and money off their roster, the timing of the move to fire second year Coach Hollins is a huge surprise....

At this point, Johnny is the only party with a chance to fully present his case and testimony. During that time, he’s presented some relatively damning evidence against his former partner and co-star. Combined with some strange behavior from her in court, as well as some strange behavior from her lawyers, this has been a damaging time for Heard, currently best known for her role in Aquaman, when it comes to her reputation and public image....

After a jury ruled that Heard had defamed Depp in June, Heard and her legal team sought a retrial, citing several different reasons why the initial trial had been illegitimate. One of the biggest claims was an alleged fraud committed by Juror 15, who was accused of taking the summons from his father who goes by the same name. “Juror 15 had a birth year of 1945. Juror 15, however, was clearly born later than 1945....

How ubiquitous? Consider this: Even GMC, a company known for pickup trucks and SUVs so big that the “GMC” nameplate on the grille is bigger than my apartment, is even getting in on the act. Starting this summer, GMC will sell a hybrid version of its Sierra pickup truck....
