The move is the second action Google, which owns Youtube, has taken against Russia amid the country’s ongoing invasion of Ukraine. The first ad sales decision came a day after Russia’s media regulator, Roskomnadzor, demanded Google to block ads on YouTube that contained what it called “false political information” about Ukraine. “We’ve recently paused all Google and YouTube ads in Russia,” a YouTube spokesperson told Newsweek. “As a follow-up, we’re now extending this pause to all our monetization features, including YouTube Premium, Channel Memberships, Super Chat, and Merchandise, for viewers in Russia....
A Federal Reserve survey of senior loan officers in October 2008, at the height of the financial crisis, found that 20 percent of domestic American banks had reduced the limits on credit card accounts for prime borrowers, and 60 percent had done the same for nonprime borrowers. Now, in the midst of what is likely to be a deep recession as tens of millions Americans find themselves unemployed due to the coronavirus crisis, the same is happening again in the credit card sector....
There, in the middle of Ohio State parading itself through the College Football Playoff Media Day, and a little more than 1,000 miles north, was Michigan’s introductory press conference to announce new coach Jim Harbaugh.

Gareth Southgate’s side hosts Scotland in a World Cup qualifier on Friday and faces Spain four days later, with that Wembley friendly affording the interim coach the opportunity to assess his options. And he will have 26-year-old West Ham fullback Cresswell at his disposal following Drinkwater’s injury-enforced withdrawal, though the nature of his setback was not disclosed.

The Columbus Crew rewarded the raucous crowd that came out to cheer them on — and to protest the rumored move of the team to Austin, Texas — by putting on a clinic against a 10-man NYCFC team that was ultimately punished for wasted chances early, and a poorly-placed elbow that earned Alexander Callens a red card and helped doom NYCFC to a 4-1 beatdown it is unlikely to recover from....
The indictment last week of Atlanta Falcons quarterback Michael Vick on charges of running a dogfighting operation at a house he owned in Virginia shines a light on a disturbing phenomenon that law-enforcement officials say is flourishing across the country. Though dogfighting is a felony in all but two states (Idaho and Wyoming), at least 40,000 Americans are actively involved in the industry, not including spectators, according to Wayne Pacelle of the Humane Society of the United States....
“If Ukraine can challenge the Black Sea Fleet (and it appears they can) then taking back Crimea is very much in the cards. Total victory possible,” wrote security expert Paul Massaro on Twitter. “The historic performance of the Ukrainian military vs. the dismal showing by the Russians is really something to behold,” Massaro—the senior policy advisor for counter-corruption and sanctions at the Commission on Security and Cooperation in Europe— added in a later tweet....
Playing against French giants PSG and long-time rival Lionel Messi, Ronaldo featured heavily for an All-Stars team consisting of players from both Al Nassr and Al Hilal. Despite not playing since Portugal’s World Cup exit late last year, the 37-year-old showed little rust in an exhibition match that lived up to the hype. While his makeshift team fell short in a whirlwind 5-4 defeat, Ronaldo did his bit to give his side a fighting chance and showed why his stint in Saudi Arabia will be well worth keeping an eye on....
The Manchester United forward had endured a frustrating evening at the Aviva Stadium, with several big opportunities passing him by in a 0-0 draw, but his mood was light enough to wave security away after seeing a young pitch invader make a dramatic bid for his shirt. Addison Whelan, who plays for Shelbourne FC’s U13 side and harbors dreams of one day turning professional, was the star-struck fan in question and is still coming to terms with the fact that she was able to share a postgame hug with her hero....
Douglas Eglan was taken to court by Frank Cation, who claimed that the 82-year-old had spat on him and pushed him to the ground. ‘Useless Pogba was never worth £100m’ The row began over a set of garden shears which was left on a fence between the neighbours’ properties, leading to a confrontation where 67-year-old Cation ended up on the ground. Eglan denied the claims, stating that he had raised his arm to defend himself and had not pushed the younger man....
Zlatko Dalic’s side demolished a ragged Argentina 3-0 during the group stage of the 2018 World Cup and, with pressure and expectation building around Messi’s final bid for glory on this stage, they will hope to pick at any lingering mental scars. A 4-1 win against Canada in their second group match remains Croatia’s only win at this tournament, having drawn with fellow surprise semifinalists Morocco and Belgium during the round-robin phase before overcoming Japan and Brazil on penalties....
