Eight summers back at the Wankhede, Kohli was the youngest member of a star-studded team led by Mahendra Singh Dhoni which lifted the World Cup but this according to him will remain on “top of the pile”. “By far this is my best achievement. Has to be on top of the pile. When we won the World Cup, I was a young player. I saw the others getting emotional. This series will give us a different identity as a team....

Koorui isn’t a household name in the monitor business, which is natural since the brand was established as recently as 2021. The brand is owned by a large Chinese semiconductor business HKC, which aims to deliver quality monitors for both office and entertainment purposes. The brand is especially focused on younger users, which makes it likely a good choice for the gamer generation. RELATED: Best Monitor Deals in January 2023...

Barkley is a hall of fame basketball legend. With players like Larry Bird, Michael Jordan, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and the late Kobe Bryant being in NBA 2K over the years, it would make sense for Chuck to be among them. But he is not, and in a recent interview, Barkley claims that he will never change his mind. RELATED: NBA 2K21: 5 Player Ratings We Love (& 5 That Make No Sense)...

Thor: Ragnarok was a movie that introduced a lot of weird characters that fans latched onto, as the wacky nature of the film allowed for fun side characters to steal the spotlight. One of the most prominent of these is Jeff Goldblum’s Grandmaster, who acts as comic relief as well as an antagonistic force for the heroes. Goldblum brought so much of his natural charm to this role that it would be a real shame if Marvel never figured out a way to have him return at some point in the future....

The planet, which lies around 670 light-years away, is tidally locked, meaning that the same side is always facing its star. On this dayside, molecules of hydrogen are torn to shreds, before flowing round to the night side where they reform again, according to a study published in the Astrophysical Journal Letters. “This kind of planet is so extreme in temperature, it is a bit separate from a lot of other exoplanets,” Megan Mansfield, a graduate student at the University of Chicago and lead author of the study, said in a statement issued by NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory....

To anyone who is familiar with Rockstar’s type of secrets, it’s clear the company enjoys sneaking in UFOs in its games. UFOs, and other mystery sightings, in Rockstar’s games have been a thing since at least Grand Theft Auto 4, and Red Dead Redemption 2 is just the latest game from the company to actually feature the objects as hidden Easter eggs. Naturally, players have to go through a series of riddles in order to activate the appearance of the UFO (although some of the riddles in Red Dead Redemption 2 are a bit easier than in Grand Theft Auto 5)....

More than 50 families in one village now have their first juice ever, thanks to a man who has no formal education. Thomas Edison famously dropped out of high school after just three months and later invented the incandescent light bulb. Bizimungu Claver built a small hydroelectric power plant from scratch and houses it in a mud-brick shack. Claver told Zenger News that six years ago he got tired of recharging batteries every day to keep his lights on....

Typically, a film’s immediate release window determines its success or failure. It makes a certain amount of money against its production budget, it gets a critical reception, and either remains popular or disappears from public consciousness. Some lucky films, however, get a second life on streaming. RELATED: Ryan Gosling Interested In Playing Ghost Rider In The MCU Added quietly to Netflix on August 9th, The Nice Guys can finally get the attention it deserved when it was released six years ago....

Remember that? Not talking to you, Chiefs fans. Of course you remember. That kind of agony does not subside merely because one’s team wins a Super Bowl, plays in another and now stands 60 minutes from a third in a row, something only two other teams in the six-decade history of the “Big Game” have achieved. BENDER: Where does Bills-Chiefs rank among greatest playoff games? Not talking to you, Patrick Mahomes....

We don’t yet know what it will look like. One imagines ESPN and the NFL Network will do an imaginative job creating compelling productions for those fans who choose to watch. And it is a choice, probably one even more will be inclined to make given the absence of live sports on television and the confinement to which most Americans currently are subjected, by choice or by law. Not one of them should feel badly about watching....

From left, that’s Mike “Luis Mendoza” Vitar, Garrett “Guy Germaine” Henson, Moreau, Vincent “Adam Banks” LaRusso, Aaron “Dean Portman” Lohr and Scott “Gunnar Stahl” Whyte. “I was thiiiis close.” Goldberg was also in the house, and oh god, they did the Flying V. Now about that fourth movie…

Amidst all of this and India’s successful campaign in the Caribbean, India’s Test match wicketkeeper is quietly regrouping for the gruelling season ahead. India played 13 Test matches at home season and Wriddhiman Saha emerged as a new star. If his bat proved to be more than handy at crucial junctures, his glove-work was splendid. Ahead of India’s tour to Sri Lanka, Saha spoke exclusively to Sportskeeda. Q: Were you satisfied with your performance in the long home season?...

If ever a developer had earned the right to think about making a sequel, it’s Riot Games. The studio’s multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) game League of Legends has been a huge success. It broke 27 million active daily users in January of this year, and is loved by gamers and critics alike for its addictive gameplay. However, Riot Games has just announced that there is never going to be a League of Legends 2....

Matter is a new smart home standard developed by a group of companies that promises to make smart home tech much easier to use and for devices from different brands to work nicely with each other. Google had already promised that ‘capable’ Nest products would eventually become Matter-certified, but now we know which will be controllers and which will be ‘Thread border routers’. A Matter controller is essentially a device that can be used to pair new Matter devices and join them to the network, and control them after that....

The grandkids were dressed as velociraptors, and lurked by the sliding doors to meet their grandma. According to Unilad, Owen and Ethan couldn’t wait for their grandmother, Cheryl, to arrive at Victoria International Airport in Canada. However, when she emerged, she wore a Tyrannosaurus Rex costume, which took the grandkids by surprise. Owen and Ethan were completely shocked to see another dinosaur at the airport, but were even more thrilled that it was Cheryl....

A report released by the Institute for Policy Studies (IPS), a think tank based in Washington, D.C., revealed that billionaire wealth not only rebounds from economic crashes but also profits in times of uncertainty. Analyzing data from Bloomberg and Forbes independent billionaire indexes, the “Billionaire Bonanza 2020” report said the collective wealth of U.S. billionaires has rebounded by $282 billion during the peak of the lockdown from March 18 to April 10....

The German reverence for trade crafts is at the heart of a high-school system considered the best in the world. Students are trained to work, not simply to receive diplomas. Only about one third of German students attend a college-preparatory school, known as a Gymnasium,– the rest go to vocational and technical schools that feature job training and academics. (The three tracks are rooted in medieval Germany’s peasant, commercial and noble classes....

Veterans with service-connected disabilities have been hit particularly hard by inflation. For many, the injuries sustained during their service have already profoundly impacted their earning potential and quality of life. Although the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) provides ongoing support for these veterans, the support is limited, and inflation is eating away at these fixed benefits. Other programs to offer additional support for those in greatest need must be re-upped and extended....

Well, you’ve got us there. Thank heavens for cable, though. With the networks mostly rerunning the same shows that didn’t rock anybody’s world the first time around, “great summer television” is not a phrase you hear too often. But faced with a pay-per-view future that threatens the value of its traditional movie programming, HBO has diversified by staking out turf the networks don’t dare inhabit. The result is a small but thriving stable of excellent original series–all of which can be seen in coming months....
