"Go f*** yourself" Crab Shack told the Huffington Post

Jack Hughes scored the golden goal with a cracked tooth and blood on his face

46 years to the day after the Miracle on Ice – and Americans lost their minds with pride

HuffPost looked at all of that and decided the real story was the people who felt "yucky" watching it.

That's when the Minadakis brothers family who run crab shack on Holabird Avenue in Baltimore said exactly what millions of Americans were thinking – and the response crashed their servers.

The import ban will apply to gold leaving Russia for G-7 countries for the first time, and will be codified by the US Treasury Department on Tuesday.

As for Russia, its central bank has been an aggressive buyer of gold, not seller, and if anything Biden's decision will only make the gold market the latest to follow the example of oil and bifurcate: cheaper for Russian-friends and much more expensive for Russian enemies.
