While Fall Guys may not be as overwhelmingly popular as it once was, the hype would instantly return if Mediatonic partnered with Netflix for some Squid Game content. The Korean show has taken the world by storm much like Fall Guys did last year, with the discussion around its deadly games unlikely to die down anytime soon. With the game and the TV series sharing a similar premise, some Squid Game-inspired stages and outfits could make for an incredible Season of Fall Guys content....

It’s Mary who decides Jane should go to live with her father, Tom Owens–Mary’s first lover, now a multimillionaire entrepreneur in biogenetics. But how will Jane get from the mountains of northern California to the small valley town where Owens lives?...

Very recently, a group calling themselves The Fancy Bears took the first step in doing just that. Since the initial medical report leaks by this anonymous group, three other batches with some high profile names have been brought out which have, undoubtedly, raised several questions. At first, this seemed to be an attack centered around America, when their initial statement did all it could to berate the authenticity of the American Olympics Team....

Then came the electrifying radio dispatches and word-of-mouth reports that the Japs, as they were called, had bombed Pearl Harbor. Overnight, isolationists became converts to intervention, stirred in part by the eloquent call to service from Franklin Roosevelt and in part by the great tidal wave of gung-ho patriotism that swept across the land. Pearl Harbor had enraged and unified a country, committing the United States to a common goal....

“Over here” is Bailey House, a residence for homeless people with AIDS. In 1986, after lobbying by the AIDS Resource Center (ARC), the City of New York bought a renovated six-story hotel on Christopher Street-and turned it over to ARC. The AIDS epidemic had created a new kind of social institution. Residences such as Bailey House, which is funded by both public grants and private money, are neither nursing home nor leper colony....

The more recent of the two books, The Mutual Fund Masters (354 pages. Probus. $22.95), features Griffeth’s interviews with 20 top money managers. Griffeth’s premise is that mutual funds are a lot like movies – they’re directed by people with distinctive styles, so individuals should choose to invest in a fund managed by, say, Ken Heebner or Ralph Wanger much like they’d choose to go see the latest Woody Allen flick....

Of course, the first 100 (or so) days are the most critical, because they set the tone for the next four years. At this point in 1977, the President’s Brother whom Clinton is most often compared to–Billy Carter–was appearing as the star attraction at a truckers’ and citizens band radio convention, in line with his clear short-term goals (get into the papers as much as possible) and longterm objective (cash in)....

Some fans are satisfied with what Hogwarts Legacy currently boasts, and indeed the amount of content it seems to have is considerable. It is possible that WB Games Avalanche could not add Quidditch due to a focus on other content; flight mechanics and animations may not be exactly where WB Games Avalanche wants them in order to properly design and execute a full-blown Quidditch mini-game. Whatever the reason for Quidditch not being added, it gives Hogwarts Legacy an incredibly enticing gameplay feature for a potential sequel....

One year later, Lake Pare Place is thriving. Valerie Robinson, 29, who fills catalog orders for Spiegel, moved in with her daughter, lured by a larger apartment. Roderick Hill, 26, a Loop office worker, scored a small apartment–and, to the envy of his friends, escaped his parents’ house. Even more encouraging is sketchy evidence that some of the poorest of Lake Parc’s residents have begun to follow neighbors like Robinson and Hill into the work force....

When White House aides were drafting speeches for the D-Day trip they did some research on Blythe’s war record. It turned out that Blythe had spent time in Caserta, Italy, not far from the American cemetery where Clinton spoke last week. Recalling his father, Clinton said, ““We are the sons and daughters of the world they saved.’’ Though Blythe didn’t see combat, the White House hopes his service will dispel the skepticism some vets feel toward his son, who avoided the draft....

Club president Florentino Perez’s vision to end Barcelona’s Pep Guardiola dominance and re-establish Real Madrid’s superiority did pay off to an extent. Jose Mourinho, being a serial winner, was the need of the hour at Real Madrid. The Champions League-winning manager made himself available and signed for Los Blancos on a four-year deal to make headway in the Spanish capital. he did so after terminating his contract with the Nerazzurri in 2010....

There is no official word on a Code Vein sequel, but if Bandai Namco decides to make one, it will need to flesh out a few things that held the original back. RELATED: 5 Soulslike Games That Are More Like Bloodborne Than Dark Souls Leaning Into Devil May Cry The Devil May Cry franchise is known for its over-the-top cutscenes, colorful characters, and fast-paced gameplay.

Charged with five ghoulish murders, Yates now faces the death penalty in a trial whose every detail is steeped in tragedy. Last week prosecutors showed the heartbreaking videotape police shot at the Yates home last June 20–four tiny corpses in wet pajamas side by side on their parents’ bed and the body of Noah, 7, lying facedown in the bathtub where he died. They also played an audio tape in which Yates told a police interrogator how she drowned the children in chilling detail–catching Noah, who was the last to die, and holding his head underwater despite his frantic struggles....

Hospital staffers call it “granny dumping”: elderly people abandoned in emergency rooms, under the pretext of illness usually by relatives who are too poor, too tired or too stressed out to continue providing care. No hard statistics have been collected, but in a recent survey by the Senate Aging Committee, 38 percent of the hospitals responding said they had received reports of such “elder abandonments.” An informal survey by the American College of Emergency Physicians last May found similar figures; some doctors reported as many as eight elderly patients dumped on their emergency wards every week....

As a younger officer, Brannock had helped out with traffic at Virginia Tech games, but he didn’t really know his way around campus very well. He had to stop a student on the sidewalk and ask for directions to Norris Hall—the classroom building at the center of the gathering storm. As he got a little closer, he could see blue lights up ahead. “I drove up on the grass in front of Norris Hall, and noticed that the officers who were already there were taking positions of cover, and had their rifles and pistols drawn....

Pictures of the giraffe were posted to Facebook by South African local AnneMarie Scheepers, who remarked that this may have been due to some poison being excreted from the body after the lightning strike. “The lightning was rough one night and it rained nicely in Skukuza area. Next morning we drove and came upon the dead giraffe but there was no sign of predators eating or wanting to come and eat,” she wrote....

Suddenly, in the wake of Russian threats to use tactical nuclear weapons, the world faces the possibility of a nuclear war that President Biden has alarmingly but accurately said threatens Armageddon. Tensions have not been this high since the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis. It is worth remembering that when we talk about nuclear war, we are talking about the violent deaths of millions—perhaps billions—of people, and possibly the end of most life on the planet....
