Occurring on one of the two days where no games from any of the four major pro sports are played, the ESPYs have been a staple on the sports calendar since 1993. This year’s edition featured several big winners including Giannis Antetokounmpo for “Best Male Athlete,” Alex Morgan for “Best Female Athlete” and the U.S. Women’s National Team for “Best Team.” MORE: ESPY Awards 2019: Show time, TV channel, full list of nominees & winners for the ESPYs...

When The Ascent released back in July 2021, it was able to capitalize on the hype that Cyberpunk 2077 had brought along with it. Many gamers were disappointed with Cyberpunk 2077 as they felt that the game did not deliver on the hype. This may have driven many gamers to find another cyberpunk experience to satisfy their craving and, luckily, in many ways The Ascent delivered. RELATED: The Ascent: How Long to Beat...

There are two essential oils specifically that may be helpful—lavender, which may help with a migraine, and peppermint, which may help with a tension-type headache. Lavender Lavender has been used throughout ancient history for its calming properties. In addition, it was used for its healing purposes to treat migraine attacks, as well as epilepsy, insect bites, parasitic infections, burns, and tremor. This practice of using lavender to treat migraine attacks has now re-emerged, and there is scientific evidence (albeit limited) to back up its use....

Then, it was revealed a special DLC pack featuring items from Monster Hunter would be coming shortly after launch. Combined with the other cosmetic DLC for Sonic Frontiers, it seemed that there wouldn’t be much to write home about in terms of extra content. Sega was quick to tell fans that there would be more coming, and now fans know that three free updates for Sonic Frontiers will be coming all throughout 2023....

Eternals has been poorly received for a vast array of reasons, perhaps reviewing worse than any other Marvel film. The film began its negative press coverage tsunami as early as its first trailer, only picking up more and more mocking and distaste as the film was fully revealed. RELATED: Eternals Post-Credits Scenes Explained It began with the second official trailer. Fans were presented with two brief shots; the first is a distant CGI recreation of an atomic bomb explosion, the second is Brian Tyree Henry’s character Phastos openly weeping at the scene....

The European Medicines Agency said in a statement on July 22 that it “recommended extending the indication of the smallpox vaccine Imvanex to include protecting adults from monkeypox disease.” According to the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control, as of 21 July, 8,697 confirmed cases of monkeypox had been recorded across 27 EU/EEA countries. The Imvanex vaccine, more commonly known as Jynneos in the U.S, has been approved for use in the EU since 2013 for protection against smallpox....

Although Prime Minister Boris Johnson had signed the treaty himself at the start of the year, the British government says it will pass legislation, known as the Internal Markets Bill, which would act as an insurance policy and allow it to override parts of the Brexit Withdrawal Agreement. The government has previously admitted that such a move would break international law. President of the Commission Ursula von der Leyen said in a statement in Brussels that infringement proceedings would begin immediately, starting with a formal notice asking for the U....

It may not be far off. For years, Mahathir has sustained his 18-year rule in part by keeping alive the memory of 1969, when resentful members of the poor Malay majority rioted against the richer minorities. Since then a vote for Mahathir, and his aggressive affirmative-action program for Malays, has been sold as a vote for ethnic peace. Yet today, young Malays are turning against Mahathir. They are joining the Chinese and Indian minorities in support of his jailed rival and former deputy, Anwar Ibrahim, the icon of a more democratic, less racially uptight Malaysia....

“We want to be clear here that we don’t want to add further trauma on that family because they fled the apartment,” Adams told reporters during a Monday press briefing. “Muscle memory during a crisis—you’re trying to get out. It is our obligation to reinforce the concept of ‘Close the Door.’” “What we don’t want to do is just add more trauma on the family that was simply trying to escape a very dangerous and a very frightening experience,” the mayor said....

And now, the conclusion of his rebirth. At least, Gordon hopes it is a rebirth. Now in his eighth year in the NBA, Gordon is facing a critical moment in the development of his career, and is under as much pressure as any player entering the season. Not only is he trying to help build on the brush with success the Pelicans had last year—New Orleans won 45 games—but he is looking to expand on the contributions he made to that group....

The Danes come into the competition off the back of a 2-0 win over Mexico, which was their 15th successive match undefeated. Tottenham star Eriksen has played a key role in that run – the country’s best since the establishment of their national side in 1907 – and he can be key to helping Kjaer & Co. enjoy a lengthy run in Russia. “He is the individual who can take our team to the next level - he had an amazing qualifying campaign, scoring a lot of goals,” he told Goal....

Spurs were trailing 1-0 at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium when Eriksen, whose future remains uncertain, was brought on as a substitute. The Denmark international impressed in attack and it was his cross that eventually led to debutant Tanguy Ndombele firing in a debut goal to level the scores. Captain Kane struck twice in the closing stages to secure a 3-1 victory and ensure a positive start to the season for last term’s Champions League finalists....

It showed a pair of former players and coaches, Brad Gilbert and Darren Cahill, forecasting Friday at Flushing Meadows. Both picked Williams to win. The 13th-seeded Errani’s ears perked up particularly when Gilbert referred to her “cottage cheese” serve and predicted she’d win only four games. So much for that. In a riveting third-round match of wild momentum swings, the 19th-seeded Williams, a two-time U.S. Open champion, came within two points of victory four times before succumbing to Errani 6-0, 0-6, 7-6 (5)....

This means every security company – including ESET – has beefed up protection with improved machine learning for better detection of threats, including those arriving by email. The company has also stepped up behavioural detection, which watches out for any abuse of system files and other activity. In particular, it says that the Internet Security and Smart Security Premium 2021 (both of which use version 14 of the antivirus engine) are better at detecting ransomware or any other malware which is making suspicious calls to encryption and decryption APIs....

According to SBD, ESPN doesn’t want the bowl games to compete with New Year’s Eve countdown shows. ESPN reportedly is pushing to have the games played Jan. 2, a Saturday on which it wouldn’t compete with other big programming. ESPN president John Skipper reportedly has stepped in to push for the change, but the CFP doesn’t sound like it’s willing to budge. “We’ve started a new tradition and we don’t want to back away from it now,” Bill Hancock, the CFP’s executive director, told SBD....

That seems to be what happened on ESPN 2 last night. Per a partnership with Blizzard, the network broadcast live footage of college students playing Heroes of the Storm for a chance to win free tuition money. The broadcast was met with some puzzled and hilarious reactions on social media from people who didn’t quite understand what was going on. To its credit, ESPN gave the game the full treatment, letting shoutcasters Artosis and Day9 call the game in much the same manner one might hear a play by play and color commentator detailing the action on a football field....

While appearing on Golic and Wingo, an ESPN radio show, ESPN analyst Doris Burke said she thinks Kawhi’s load management rest is “ridiculous.” “It is mindboggling to me that Kawhi doesn’t want to play against the reigning MVP [Giannis Antetokounmpo] and he would rather play against the Portland Trail Blazers tomorrow night on TNT,” Burke said. Leonard has been a strong advocate of resting due to load management, or reducing training or the number of games an athlete plays in to allow for better long-term performance....
