What really impressed me was that nearly 30% of gaming revenue was made from PC and online gaming (not including MMOs). In a world where PC gaming is supposedly dead, it looks to be doing very good for itself, pulling in roughly $7 billion. More amazing is the mobile phone market. I remember a time, not too long ago, when the best game you could get on your phone was Snake....
The US Open is the culmination of a seven-week North American outdoor hardcourt swing on the tour.

Let us have a look at the last five players to have made their major breakthroughs at Flushing Meadows:...

She also remembers his black Corvette. But the thing she remembers most is the line he fed her. “I’m sorry you’ve gotta race me, you’re gonna lose.” Eight months into her racing career, competing in the NHRA Super Comp series, DeJoria wanted nothing more than to prove she could race for a living. It was the Third Round of that particular race weekend. DeJoria would survive to race in the next one, sending the man in the Corvette home on the way to her first Super Comp win....

As we all know The Beast Incarnate Brock Lesnar is the Universal Champion and to say that he is a good champion and representative of the WWE would be something of a joke among lifelong fans. His presence on Monday Night Raw is virtually non-existent except usually he may turn up once every few months to hype up his next match and then he will retreat again and we won’t see or hear from him till he shows up the next time when the money is right for him....
Research appearing last week reaffirmed that view, noting that the numbers of false positives on antigen tests are “very low,” .05 percent, and that they could be caused by problems in the manufacture of a particular “batch” of the test. But for people like me who think they may be among those with false positives, that’s hardly reassuring. Less reassuring, and more confusing, was the observation that “aside from issues with the batch, false-positives are possible due to the timing of the test (i....

Juan Manuel Fernández Iglesias, 52, is a parish priest from Galicia—an autonomous region in the northwest of Spain—who covers the municipalities of Cerdedo-Cotobade, Ponte Caldelas and A Lama, local media outlet La Voz de Galicia reported. At the start of the pandemic, Iglesias, who is also a professor of religion at a school in A Lama, strictly adhered to coronavirus restrictions, according to parishioners. During this period, the priest was careful not to allow people to congregate too closely in his churches, and ensured that a safe distance was maintained between worshippers....
While many fantasy owners focus on the top of the rankings, the middle tier is just as important. You can debate Derrick Henry vs. Christian McCaffrey vs. Dalvin Cook at No. 1 all day (for what it’s worth, McCaffrey is No. 1 in our PPR rankings), but ultimately, if you get a chance to draft any of them, you should be in great shape. It’s the RBs further down the list that could make or break your season....

The Jaguars coach, appearing on the “Rich Eisen Show” on Thursday, provided an update on the quarterback-turned-tight end’s chances of making the team’s final 55-man roster. As it stands now, Meyer understands his former signal-caller at Florida has work to do to make the successful transition. “What’s the percentage of making the team? We don’t know, this is uncharted water, this is gonna be very difficult, but he’s been doing great,” Meyer told Eisen....

Still only 29, Nagelsmann has guided Hoffenheim to fourth in the Bundesliga table, with the team on course to secure a Champions League qualification play-off berth. Those exploits have seen him tipped by some to earn a role at a bigger team, but the former 1860 Munich and Augsburg academy player, whose career was cut short by injury, appears determined to stay at Rhein-Neckar-Arena, at least for now. “There is, of course, a lot of speculation and I also have an agent who doesn’t pass on every question,” Nagelsmann told Sky Sports....

Is it pure luck? Or did he really strike? It is a rare situation in cricket, that on the first lucky break you get, you are in there bowling against stalwarts of this calibre. He got his first cap barely an hour ago, was beaten away badly for three boundaries in an over, but then, the lightning struck.

Car accidents take more children’s lives in America than any other cause–about 900 deaths per year for kids under 5. To improve tots’ chances of surviving a collision, all 50 states require parents to secure them into car seats. Consumers Union tested the 25 best-selling seats for both infants and preschoolers by simulating a car hitting a stationary object at 30 miles per hour. On impact, the buckle on the Kolcraft 700 came undone, releasing a forward-facing “3-year-old dummy”; when not attached by its base the casing of the Evenflo On My Way 206 cracked with a “9-month-old,” and the Century 590 seat broke free of its base with the same dummy....
