I went to Toronto to write about the comeback kid and, as luck would have it, witnessed his first loss. He struggled from the start against the Seattle Mariners and trailed 3-2 going into the seventh inning. Along the way, the only notable moment was when he drilled Seattle first basemen Paul Sorrento with a fastball, a familiar purpose pitch to anyone who had watched Rocket Roger intimidate hitters throughout his career....
Here’s where it gets worse: Another half dozen won’t be playing in Week 9. Then it’s four more in Week 10, four more in Week 11. That’s a tough stretch of possibly having multiple regular starters out of your lineup. Good thing “The Decider” is here to help you make some of the tighter, tougher replacement decisions: WEEK 8 RANKINGS:Quarterback | Running back | Wide receiver | Tight end | Defense | Kicker...
The state was ranked last in “best states for women, prompting Garvin to say, “It was just kind of confusing, but also a little crushing and disheartening,” according to KFOR, adding that there was work to be done to make Oklahoma among the top 10 states. Women’s economic and social well-being, healthcare and safety were among the indicators used in the rankings. Other metrics included poverty, life expectancy and voter turnout....
State of Decay 2 launched in 2018 to mixed reviews, but has seen a steady release of new content since then. The Heartland DLC added new story missions and characters, while the Juggernaut Edition overhauled several graphical features, including the lighting. Undead Labs has promised that State of Decay 2 will get continued support despite the announcement of its sequel State of Decay 3, and that has proven to be correct yet again....
Noem first mentioned the proposal at a conservative Christian conference in July of last year. “We prayed in schools, which by the way, in South Dakota, I’m putting prayer back in our schools,” Noem said during her speech at the conference, but she did not specify a plan at the time. In December, Noem released the bill called “A Moment of Silence,” which would have required schools to provide a moment of silence at the beginning of each day, which a statement released by the governor’s office said would “restore protections for prayer in schools....

After winning the toss, England elected to bat first and got off to the perfect start as Jason Roy and Jonny Bairstow put on a fifty partnership for the first wicket. Although both openers fell short of a fifty, England captain Eoin Morgan got his and Root went one better as he scored his 12th ODI century. David Willey’s unbeaten fifty helped England recover from a middle-order collapse and post 322/7....

Chief among those questions was whether Stauskas could become more than a shooter. Was he capable of handling the ball, creating his own shot and making plays for others? He answered all three in an outstanding sophomore year, after which he was named Big Ten Player of the Year and earned All-America status. So Stauskas, who is a sure lottery pick, had to be surprised when he had to answer those same telegraphed questions at his first private workout of the predraft process....
The alliance said that the “Steadfast Noon” exercise starting on Monday and running until October 30 “is a routine, recurring training activity and it is not linked to any current world events.” However, it comes as concerns grow that Putin might resort to nuclear weapons following losses in his invasion in which his forces have had to retreat. The exercise will involve 14 alliance members and up to 60 aircraft, including fourth and fifth-generation fighter jets, as well as surveillance and tanker aircraft....
How Much Internal Storage Does the Steam Deck Have? Although it bears a striking resemblance to the Nintendo Switch, the Steam Deck has far more in common with a contemporary gaming PC. You can use it to play titles from your Steam library (with all the mods and settings intact), download third-party applications and generally do most things that you would do on your home computer. It also has impressive technical specs, with 16GB of RAM, 4 cores of AMD Zen 2 CPU with 8 logical threads and 8 CUs of RDNA 2 GPU....
If opted into, the Store Hubs experiment replaces, improves, or adds to all of Steam’s category and tag webpages. If a Steam user goes to the front page of the storefront, there’s a button at the top that reads “Categories,” and it’s here where Store Hubs improvements can be found. Before getting to specifics, Valve explains that these improvements are all designed to improve browsing and filtering of game categories, to help Steam users find more games that they’d be interested in and want to play....
Yesterday, Steam launched their first annual holiday auction. Conceptually, it was pretty simple. By buying and playing games on Steam, or by trading with other users, players can earn virtual items like cards, backgrounds, and emoticons. Most of the time, these objects just sit in a user’s inventory, forgotten. However, starting yesterday, users could convert these items into “Steam Gems,” a digital currency that could be used to bid on almost 2,000 games (limited to 100 copies of each)....
It wasn’t without its hiccups as Steam was hit with controversy after their Curators feature began to be abused by malicious trolls, self-promoting developers and retailers alike. Following the similarly wonky rollout of the Steam Tags system (some users used the tags to criticize and tear down games rather than label them appropriately) and the divisive policies of Steam Early Access, many asked why Steam’s parent company Valve consistently make so many missteps....
Two years on from the original Discovery update, it’s now time for Steam Discovery 2.0, as Valve is calling it. The update has officially been made available to users, following a recent leak detailed the Steam Store’s new UI. Valve says that the new Steam Store is “smarter” and “more informative,” with a Highlights section that will explain why a game was recommended (e.g ‘because you recently browsed these tags’) and who recommended it....
It’s undeniable that Steam is convenient for players, especially for those who only have a PC. However, as much as players wish it was as simple as clicking a game and getting to play it hassle-free, there’s a lot of finer points of Steam that can be confusing for players. Some examples are trying to hunt down specific files for Steam games or dealing with updates and downloads. Fortunately, the latest Steam update addresses both of those issues....
The NFL last week fined Denver’s Von Miller for his pelvic thrusts, and now the league is going after St. Louis receiver Stedman Bailey for using the football as a pillow after scoring a touchdown in Week 4. MORE: Week 5 Power Rankings | Players hated by own fans for Week 4 Obviously, Bailey was not pleased when he found out he was fined. According to Fox Sports analyst Mike Pereira, Bailey will pay $8,681 for his nap....
