US commander says evidence hasn’t corroborated intelligence of Russian bounties on US troops
The top U.S. commander in Afghanistan says in a new interview that he has not seen evidence to corroborate claims that Russian officials placed bounties on U.S. troops stationed in the Middle East. Speaking with NBC News, Gen. Frank McKenzie said that reports in The New York Times and other media outlets indicating that U.S. intelligence officials were investigating reports that Russia was offering bounties to Taliban fighters for targeting U.S. service members had not been corroborated by evidence he had seen personally. "It just has not been proved to a level of certainty that satisfies me," Gen. McKenzie told NBC News, adding, "We continue to look for that evidence. I just haven't seen it yet. But ... it's not a closed issue."

It’s The First Day Of Meteorological Spring – What Can We Expect In March?
BOSTON (CBS) – Welcome to spring! Yes, Monday, March 1 marks the beginning of meteorological and climatological spring! So, if you have had enough of winter this year, no need to wait for the vernal equinox on March 20, just join us scientists and celebrate today! Why the difference in seasons? Meteorologists and climatologists group their seasons into three months each. READ MORE: Give Teachers The Johnson & Johnson Vaccine First, Lawmakers Urge Baker Winter: December through February Spring: March through May Summer: June through August Fall: September through November This is done largely for accuracy in data collection and forecasting. Having the same dates for seasons each year makes recording and cataloguing data much easier. Astronomical winter is based solely on the rotation of the Earth around the Sun with the equinoxes and solstices marking the beginning of the seasons. So, having established this, let’s put a bow on the winter of 2020-2021. I wonder if I were to take a poll, what would the final impressions of this winter be amongst most New Englanders? What would come to mind first when thinking back on this winter? Perhaps those with short-term memories would say cold and snowy (thinking mainly back on the last 4-to-5 weeks). I am sure there would be some real snow lovers out there who would insist that this winter was rather weak or boring given that we really only had a few “big” snowstorms and a very lackluster January. The bottom line – I don’t think this winter will likely be “remembered” at all years from now, at least not in New England. Folks in Texas and other parts of the country may disagree. Sure, compared to the last two winters I suppose this one was “snowy” 2018-2019: 27.4 inches of snow in Boston 2019-2020: 15.8” of snow in Boston 2020-2021: 38.4” of snow in Boston data includes snow from October through April) However, nearly a third of our snow season this year came in that ...
