People close by neither saw nor heard the shots. D’Antona staggered into a wall and fell to the pavement, his white shirtfront stained with blood. A tour bus full of Americans pulled up and people began shouting, “They’re shooting.” But it was all over; a block away, the gunmen hopped on a scooter and disappeared into rush-hour traffic. D’Antona died minutes later, in an ambulance. “There is little doubt of the precise preparation of the ambush and of the cold and professional execution,” said Interior Minister Rosa Russo Jervolino, addressing an emergency session of Parliament....

“I can’t find anything that can be valued. When there’s nothing that’s well done, it’s not individuals that fail, but the organization. There’s no justification I can offer.” He finished with a sobering remark. “We’ve never had a performance like the one today.” The Argentine is right — the mauling at the Etihad Stadium is the worst Leeds have played under the veteran coach since he arrived in West Yorkshire back in 2018; the result was the joint-worst, in terms of a losing margin, in the club’s history....

The leak comes from known and reliable leaker Kopite7kimi, who states that a new specification is due for Nvidia’s GA102 GPU chip, which is used in the RTX 3090 and RTX 3080. The new version of the GPU is detailed to have 7424 cores, which places it between the mainstream RTX 3070 and flagship RTX 3080 in terms of performance, with 26% more CUDA cores than the RTX 3070, and just 9% fewer than the RTX 3080....

A majority of fans and analysts would agree on the fact that Rudy Gobert is overrated. He signed a $200M+ deal last offseason and NBA Twitter erupted with rage over the absurdity of the contract. Famous former NBA players like Shaquille O’Neal, Charles Barkley, Paul Pierce and many more commented on the extremely high number in his deal. Rudy Gobert was a liability in major chunks of games in the LA Clippers series and was one of the many people blamed for their early exit in the NBA playoffs....

Before the conflict in Ukraine erupted in February 2022, Russia was widely seen as a force to be reckoned with. Sure, the Russian economy was smaller than Italy’s. The Russian budget relied extensively on oil and gas exports. And the Russian military was largely untested in conventional warfare, with the Kremlin increasingly turning to mercenaries in locales like Mali, the Central African Republic, and Syria instead of professional soldiers. But there was a general assumption that Moscow had the capacity and motivation to effectively pursue their security interests—with force, if necessary....

During the New York Yankees' Thursday night game against the Boston Red Sox, cameras caught Yankees pitcher Michael Pineda with what appears to be pine tar on his pitching hand. Perhaps he accidentally got it on his hands between innings. But then again, why would Pineda be near pine tar? he's a pitcher. Pineda allowed ust one run in six innings pitched, and the Yankees won 4-1.

The HVY Nightshark is one such car, and it should be a part of every player’s garage. It doesn’t look the coolest or have the highest top speed but it handles damage like no other. This article talks about why the HVY Nightshark is the best armored car in the game right now. This is not about having the most armor but also about utility in general. Note: This article reflects the writer’s personal views....

Though there are millions of Nintendo Switch consoles in the wild, there are still plenty of gamers considering whether they should take the plunge and purchase one. There are many reasons to be hesitant, as the console has been around for a few years, and there are constant rumors of a successor being just around the corner. Furthermore, it seems vastly underpowered compared to other gaming systems on the market....

Since its introduction in 2013, the NXT Women’s Championship has been the one consistent thing not just NXT, but in WWE. The title has been held 14 times, with only two women, Shayna Baszler and Charlotte Flair, holding it twice. Only twice has a reign lasted less than 100 days, not counting Mandy Rose’s current reign at 70+. To put that into perspective, the NXT Championship has been worn 24 times since 2012....

In a press release sent out on Wednesday, the IIHF cited the ongoing spread of COVID-19 and the Omicron variant as the reason the tournament has been canceled in the middle of the preliminary round. A positive team to a member of the Russian National Team forced the third forfeited game in just two days compromising the sportive integrity of the event. “Together with the teams, we came into this event with full confidence in the COVID-19 protocols put in place by the IIHF, the LOC, Alberta Health, Alberta Health Services and the Public Health Agency of Canada,” said IIHF President Luc Tardif....

Breastfeeding at Diagnosis Because cancer is difficult to detect in a lactating breast, it is unusual—though not impossible—for women to be diagnosed during the time they are breastfeeding. Should this happen, it does not automatically mean the end of breastfeeding. For example, diagnostic procedures (such as a needle biopsy) do not generally pose an obstacle to continued breastfeeding. At this point, you may want to pump and store breast milk, or research and select a baby formula, so you can bridge the gap if your treatment regimen ends up requiring you to put breastfeeding on hold....

The 37-year-old forward finally got back on the scoresheet against Brighton & Hove Albion in the Red Devils’ 2-0 win in mid-week. He has previously gone six matches without a goal across all competitions. His strike against the Seagulls was his first goal of the 2022 calendar year. Interim manager Ralf Rangnick will now be looking to Ronaldo to continue his goalscoring form when Manchester United face Leeds United. The Portuguese ace could be partnered alongside Jadon Sancho and Marcus Rashford in the front three, with Bruno Fernandes supporting the attack....

Early next year, Trekkers and non-Trekkers alike will get the chance to fill the virtual shoes of Chris Pine and Zachary Quinto in Digital Extremes’ Star Trek. Originally slated to release this year, publishers Paramount Digital Entertainment and Namco Bandai chose to delay the game, noting at the time that it would ultimately appear on “all major home consoles and PC.” Apparently, one “major home console” was initially overlooked....

Can it be done? If not, Giscard tells NEWSWEEK, he doesn’t see much future for the European Union. “Right now,” he says, “the system has gone…” He stops himself. Is he about to say “gone bad”? Or maybe has reached the point of being “broken”? “Yes,” he replies. “But that’s too much. Let’s just say… it functions with great difficulty.” That bit of diplomatic legerdemain is said with a chuckle, of course....

But now gamers are curious after the live event made it so you can’t play the game. It’s unclear what exactly is happening, but Fortnite’s official Twitter account has gone black. If you didn’t watch the live event, we’ll catch you up. The countdown ticked down to zeroes, at which point the rocket launched. Following that, we saw several rockets in the sky going through loops. Eventually missiles began firing down from the comet on the map, and the comet then left....

IBS is a condition that impacts your gastrointestinal system, causing pain and bowel symptoms like constipation or diarrhea. In people with the condition, weight changes may have to do with diet choices and stress about whether foods will cause a flare. For some, IBS symptoms can limit the physical activities that could build a healthy, lean body. Diet advice you see for the general population don’t always work for people coping with IBS....

The CEO manages the company, while the board oversees the management. So, effectively, chair-CEOs must monitor themselves. But the benefits of a combined position outweigh the conflict, says Charles Elson, director of the Center for Corporate Governance at the University of Delaware. While controversial, the combined chair-CEO model—used by the vast majority of U.S. companies—helps avoid employee confusion about who’s ultimately in charge. —Sally Atkinson
