Video Game News BF3 Fan Group Issue Ultimatum To EA And DICE The Battlefield 3 community is waging war, but one outside of the popular game and against its very creators. The community site Battlefieldo, fed up with the lack of communication with fans, has given Electronic Arts and DICE an ultimatum: “to black out the entire Battlefield [3] community for one day, 24 hours - no playing, no posting and no tweeting”....
Since dark matter does not emit any kind of light, its presence can be inferred only by its gravity. Gravity is what the ROSAT (Roentgen Satellite) detected last April when it snapped X-ray pictures of three galaxies, 150 million light-years away, beyond the constellation Cepheus. This triplet is veiled in a cloud of gas 1.3 million light-years across and as massive as 500 billion suns. The gravity required to contain the cloud is 12 to 25 times greater than that in the galaxies themselves, astronomers from NASA, the University of Maryland and Arizona State University announced at a meeting of the American Astronomical Society....
Regular Exercise for Arthritis It’s important to begin by saying that regular exercise helps people with arthritis. It can not only reduce joint pain and stiffness but may help you stay as strong and as healthy as possible. People with arthritis who practice regular exercise not only have less discomfort, but physical activity can also improve: BalanceMuscle strengthFlexibilityCardiac fitnessEnduranceWeight controlAn overall sense of well-being All that said, it can be difficult for people with arthritis to stick with a regular exercise program because of their physical limitations....
The video, posted by user u/your_name_here___, shows the insects, which are covered in a stringy, white fur-like substance, rocking back and forth and waving their hair-like filaments in the air. “Found some tiny strange bugs dancing around a leaf while hiking,” the user said in the caption of the post. “Someone please tell me what the heck they are? They were on a walking path only around one single leaf....
In the immortal words of Luke Ward: “Welcome to the O.C., b***h.” Or a Mike Huckabee fundraiser. Newport Beach is not exactly Huckabee’s scene. To put it mildly. As one of the poshest communities in America, it’s a poor fit, in theory, for a Southern-fried Arkansan whose mother grew up with dirt floors and whose father never finished high school. “You’re pretty sophisticated out here,” he noted. (Eat your heart out, Ryan Atwood....
Wendy’s has officially issued a pen and paper tabletop RPG sourcebook titled Feast of Legends. And when we say sourcebook, we mean a legitimate, 100-page book filled with maps, illustrations, character sheets, character archetypes, and a 5-part adventure titled Rise From the Deep Freeze spanning almost 50 pages. In other words, Wendy’s put work into this. It’s a legitimate tabletop RPG for pen and paper fans to play through....
Having put CSKA Moscow to the sword on Thursday, winning the first leg of the Europa League quarter-final 4-1, Arsenal made heavy weather of seeing off a side sitting in the Premier League’s relegation zone. Welbeck headed in an 81st-minute winner to secure Arsenal a sixth successive win in all competitions, though Wenger admitted fatigue was to blame for his side’s below-par display. Southampton’s Jack Stephens and Mohamed Elneny of Arsenal both saw red in stoppage time for violent conduct, leaving their respective sides to play out the closing minutes with 10 men....
Titans QB Zach Mettenberger left the game with an apparent right shoulder injury and has been replaced by Jake Locker. UPDATE: Mettenberger was diagnosed with a Grade 1 AC joint sprain in his throwing shoulder. He’s considered day-to-day. Redskins WR DeSean Jackson limped off the field with help from two members of the training staff. UPDATE: Jackson suffered a fibula contusion and will see how the leg responds to some rest before possibly undergoing an MRI....
A Packers onslaught will need to lead the way. We’re betting on a must-win matchup against the foundering Cardinals to spark the Packers, and we’re also going with a bunch of high-upside (and in some cases, underpriced) one-offs in favorable matchups. A couple of our WRs and our TE offer risk, but that’s not uncommon with what we see in the DraftKings perfect lineup every week. If we’ve hit on the right ones, it will really pay off....
How much chaos can the final weekend bring on the final Saturday of the college football regular season? MORE: Watch college football live and on-demand with fuboTV Here are five things that could increase the drama heading into the final stretch. TCU wins With apologies to the Pac-12 championship on Friday night, No. 10 USC probably can’t wiggle into the College Football Playoff even if they beat No. 12 Stanford....
As far as players routinely on the start-sit bubble, Austin Hooper might be the best of that crowd this week. The Falcons TE has played fairly well, and the Panthers have been one of the worst teams against TEs all year despite playing better recently. It also helps that Hooper hit double-digits in fantasy points the first time he faced Carolina this season, so feel free to plug him in as a starter....
Don’t worry, we have some of those, too, as Jamaal Williams (@ Jets) and Elijah McGuire (vs. Packers) could both provide owners with plenty of points. Unfortunately, rookies Kalen Ballage (vs. Jaguars) and Jeff Wilson Jr. (vs. Bears) have tough matchups on paper if they’re forced to start for Frank Gore (foot) and Matt Breida (ankle), respectively, but the Jags might have Derrick Henry flashbacks when they see the 6-2, 237-pound Ballage, and Wilson Jr....
LeSean McCoy, RB, Eagles. For some odd reason, Shady wasn’t a featured part of the offense in a Week 15 loss to the Minnesota Vikings. That wasn’t the case this week. McCoy touched the ball 24 times, totaling 162 yards and two scores. He’ll have a good chance at an encore performance next week against the Dallas Cowboys. Pierre Garcon, WR, Redskins. The Washington Redskins nearly ended the Cowboys’ playoff hopes, and Garcon was a big reason why....
This week, we were hoping to spend up at QB, RB, and WR, but we couldn’t quite get to a top WR with our limited budget. So, we decided to grab a top QB and a couple of higher-end RBs while creating a QB-TE stack with upside as opposed to a QB-WR stack that could’ve worked but would’ve been costly. To help differentiate our lineup, we grabbed a couple of top TEs in excellent matchups that could end up functioning more like top wideouts than TEs....
Saturday night’s TV schedule is packed with top-15 matchups as No. 5 Oklahoma travels to Columbus to face No. 2 Ohio State on ABC. Meanwhile, No. 13 Auburn takes on No. 3 Clemson on ESPN in a battle of Tigers, and No. 6 USC faces an early test at home against No. 14 Stanford on FOX.

title: “Week 2 Fantasy Football Defense Rankings” ShowToc: true date: “2023-01-23” author: “Robert Pacheco”
We were hit or miss in Week 1. We gave you Austin Ekeler as a sleeper, and he was one of the highest scoring players the whole week in his role as Melvin Gordon’s replacement. We also suggested Lamar Jackson, who sliced and diced the Dolphins defense to the tune of 59 Ravens’ points. And we might never dominate one section as much as we did tight end for Week 1, when our sleeper picks of T....
There are a few intriguing matchups this week, but fantasy football owners are being reminded that it’s tough to “stream” D/STs and expect big points every week. Just ask those who tried the Browns against the Jets in Week 1, only to ditch Cleveland in Week 2 for its opponent, the Titans D/ST. Doh and doh. Let’s take a look at the full fantasy defense/special teams rankings for Week 3 to identify some sleepers and busts....
Oh, a final note. The cost of the shack-with two double bedrooms (one up, one down), bath with shower, towels and linens, daily cleaning service, ceiling fan, mosquito net, sandy beach, shady palm trees, warm breeze off the Bay of Bengal, and the Buddhist temple next door-$11.62 per night.
