Oh, be still my beating heart! All things being equal, I hope to see our lads take on the Yorkies at my favourite ground outside of the county. I can close my eyes and hear the sea right now, the only thing to check being how the date ties in with the school calendar and whether it is a solo trip or a family one. I think that game, together with the four-day fixture at the Cheltenham Festival, will see good Derbyshire away support and I’m pretty happy with the way its been drawn up....

It might have seemed like an odd reaction for a team that won an MLS Cup title just four years ago, but those four years have been an exercise in futility for a club that has, arguably, played the best soccer in MLS for the past five seasons. You see, Sunday’s trophy presentation was the first one RSL could actually take part in since that 2009 MLS Cup. In the four years since, RSL has come out on the losing end in multiple finals, watching teams celebrate on its own home field multiple times....

Gonzalez passed away on Wednesday at age 35, a little more than a year after being diagnosed with colon cancer. The Enkyboys duo of Randy and his son Brice have 15.6 million followers on the video platform and almost 300 million likes. The young father died in a hospice surrounded by his family after revealing to fans in April 2022 that he had been diagnosed with colon cancer. As recently as late December, Gonzalez updated fans on his treatment journey, saying he was “sick all the time” and that his “chemo had stopped working....

The space rock, dubbed 2022 OE2, will make a close approach to our planet on Wednesday, figures from NASA’s Center for Near Earth Object Studies (CNEOS) database show. At 8:23 p.m. ET on that day, the asteroid is predicted to come within around 3.2 million miles of Earth in its own orbit around the sun. This is around 13 times the average distance between the Earth and the Moon and, as such, there is no threat of a collision with our planet....

Tarrio, chairman of the far-right group, repeatedly went undercover for investigators to help prosecute 13 people for offenses such as drugs and human smuggling. Tarrio’s past as an informer was revealed by the former federal prosecutor in his case, Vanessa Singh Johannes, and in a 2014 Miami federal court transcript obtained by Reuters. Tarrio’s then-lawyer Jeffrey Feiler brought up Tarrio’s previous undercover work while asking for a sentence reduction for him and two-other co-defendants....

As with smoking, many of these environmental causes of lung cancer can be avoided or reduced once you’re aware of them—especially those that may be in your home or workplace. Radon Exposure to radon in the home is the second-leading cause of lung cancer in the United States as well as the leading cause in non-smokers. Radon is a radioactive gas produced by the natural decay of uranium in the soil....

But now, the Epic Games CEO has found another bone to pick with UWP and he’s not pulling any punches. Per Game Informer, Sweeney is now claiming that Microsoft intends to use the Universal Windows Platform to eventually sabotage Valve’s Steam, aka the client almost every PC gamer currently uses to organize their library and buy most games. According to Sweeney’s own words published in Edge magazine, Microsoft is secretly plotting to get gamers to one day purchase all of their games through the Windows Store....

Leveling and Eating The leveling system in the quirky sim game Epic Chef is based around Zest’s daily meal. Players should make use of their kitchen at least once a day, not only familiarizing themselves with ingredients, synergies, and food types, but also to make themselves and their noble steed, Birch, excellent meals. Players need to perform physical activities like chopping down trees to raise their vigor scores, thoughtful activities like studying to raise their spirit, and relaxing to raise their sophistication....

Owing a considerable amount of Fortnite’s popularity to many content creators, it seems that Epic Games feels the need to give back to those who have, in some cases, earned a living off of its game for over a year now. Epic states that the ‘Support-A-Creator’ event announced earlier today will involve Creators earning money every time supporters buy or earn V-Bucks from the point of next week’s update through December 31....

What’s interesting about PC Building Simulator is that it’s not actually available on the Epic Games Store yet, making it a rare example of a game making its debut on the service while simultaneously being made available as a freebie. PC Building Simulator is the latest in a long line of simulator games about what one would consider potentially mundane tasks, with this particular title taking putting players in the role of a computer repair person....

At $60 apiece, $10.45 million would account for 175,000 copies of Control. However, a storefront’s cut also needs to be taken into account. The Epic Game Store’s revenue share is 12/88%. So technically, $10.45 million of revenue going directly to DigitalBros would account for almost 200,000 copies sold on the Epic Games Store. To earn the same amount of revenue on Steam, Control would have had to have sold 250,000 copies on the platform....

Notoriously merciless on those he considers the betrayers of fiction’s possibilities–and the roster of these scrivener Judases includes many of the literary lights of the last half century, from John Updike and Don DeLillo to Iris Murdoch and Toni Morrison–Wood has few kind words for the type of knowing, self-consciously playful post-Barthelme writing that, for better or worse, has dominated the salon for the past several decades. Nor does he harbor any more fondness for the allegory-riddled descendants of Pynchon or research-mad creations a la Julian Barnes....

United dismantled their opponents by a scoreline of 5-0 with Odion Ighalo scoring an absolute blinder of a goal in the process.

It sets up perfectly for the English, who will play in front of a projected 60,000 mostly partisan fans (8,000 Danes are also expected), as they seek to finally get past a major tournament semifinal for the first time since 1966. They’ve fallen short at this stage on four previous semifinal appearances at both the World Cup (1990, 2018) and the Euros (1968, 1996). But Denmark has played some of the best soccer of any team at these Euros, and that’s after overcoming the traumatic experience of watching star player Christian Eriksen survive a cardiac arrest episode during a match....

While England’s relegation in the UEFA Nations League was confirmed last time out against Italy, goals from Luke Shaw, Mason Mount and Harry Kane ensured Three Lions fans at least had something to cheer about, despite Southgate’s team now being on a run of six matches without a win. The home side thought they’d pulled off a miraculous second-half comeback from two goals down when they scored three times in 11 minutes — only for Kai Havertz to score his second of the night at the death for the 3-3 final....
