Jones became England’s first overseas coach when he replaced Stuart Lancaster in the top job following a poor showing at last year’s Rugby World Cup. The former Japan boss went on to lead England to a first Six Nations Grand Slam since 2003, and Hodgson invited Jones to spend some time at the football team’s St George’s Park training base on Friday. Hodgson hopes that learning about Jones’ experience of working with top-class players can come in handy ahead of leading England at the European Championship in France....

The Premier League encounter at King Power Stadium garnered a lot of attention after referee Jonathan Moss awarded questionable penalties to both sides and gave a second yellow card to Vardy for simulation in the penalty area. While Vardy’s second booking has divided opinion in the media, Hodgson felt it was a harsh decision against the surprise league leader’s top scorer. “Vardy got sent off at the weekend. But again, I will go out on a limb....

While Hogwarts Legacy is scheduled to release later this year, rumors suggested that the game would get delayed to 2023. Delays are generally met with anger and disappointment, but releasing an unfinished game is often worse. Despite these rumors, Jason Kilar, WarnerMedia CEO, had announced that Hogwarts Legacy was still on track for a 2022 release. Now, The State of Play event has also confirmed this news and given a proper release window for Hogwarts Legacy....

If this pattern of Hogwarts house companions seems to reveal anything, it is that a Ravenclaw student should also be contributing to Hogwarts Legacy’s cast of companion characters. Ravenclaw’s house is known for its wisdom and wit, and it would be fun to converse with a Ravenclaw student in-depth to get a sense of what they might be like. Harry Potter danced around its Ravenclaws as well, devoting less attention toward them than their Gryffindor and Slytherin classmates, and it would be a shame for Hogwarts Legacy to neglect Ravenclaw in its companion character considerations....

Now, subtle information from a verified source may provide some surprising optimism about the game’s release. RELATED: Rumor: Hogwarts Legacy ‘In Trouble’ and Could Get Delayed to Next Year...

However, holding tech companies accountable when they are restricting free speech is a fundamentally conservative value. This is especially true when large platforms cherry-pick situations in which they want to act like publishers—such as newspapers—without wanting to accept the legal responsibilities for publisher-like actions—for example, de-platforming or blocking content. Tech advocates suing the State of Florida over its new provision that regulates these tech platforms—a rather extreme law, admittedly—provides a good demonstration of Big Tech doublespeak on the First Amendment....

“Our usual ways of connection, in terms of meeting with people and being together, have been taken away,” Vineeth John, MD, MBA, a professor of psychiatry with McGovern Medical School at The University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston (UTHealth) and UT Physicians, tells Verywell. “We are limited to what we call personal agency—what we can do on our own—and that’s why traditions or rituals become the primary element we can return to," he says....

A rare pink diamond, coveted by all, is the “MacGuffin” that sets the plot in motion. It’s found, and secretly buried, by Solomon Vandy (Djimon Hounsou), a Men-de fisherman rounded up by marauding rebel forces and forced to work in their mines. They have also kidnapped his 14-year-old son to join their legions of brainwashed, doped-up child soldiers, and Solomon is counting on the money his diamond will bring to save his boy....

RELATED: Hollow Knight: How To Defeat Nosk Due to their speed and strength, they can be difficult to take down, however, a great way to get better at fighting them is to pay attention to their attacks. This will allow most players to learn how to dodge them and when are the best openings to attack. Though, in games as genuinely challenging (in a good way) as Hollow Knight, such things are sometimes easier said than done....

According to USA Today, a new ad shows Holm standing with five bottles of Hi-Tech products, three of which contain DMAA, an amphetamine-like stimulant banned by the World Anti-Doping Agency. MORE: Ronda Rousey will not fight at UFC 200 | UFC Fight Night 81 Cruz vs. Dillashaw: Time, TV channel, online streaming The U.S. Anti-Doping Agency, which administers the UFC’s doping protocol, follows WADA rules and regulations.

The split between The Rock and Vin Diesel has been public in recent years. The two men resorted to taking shots at one another on social media after not having a great time on set with each other during The Fate of the Furious. The separation led to The Rock not taking part in Fast 9 and doing his Fast movie with Jason Statham instead, Hobbs and Shaw. In a surprising turn of events, Vin Diesel took to social media today to send a plea to the former WWE superstar to return to the franchise for Fast 10:...

title: “Home At Last” ShowToc: true date: “2023-01-06” author: “Marilyn Merrill” The words were pure Oprah, but they proved prophetic. In a matter of weeks, the youngest man in the room–a 26-year-old former national math champion named Shao Yibo–scribbled down a business proposal, sold his belongings and left for Shanghai, where he launched a Chinese version of the Internet auction giant, eBay. On the way, he stopped off for a day in Silicon Valley and persuaded investors to give him $400,000....

Solskjaer has won his opening five matches after replacing Jose Mourinho in December – equalling Matt Busby’s record in a 2-0 FA Cup victory against Reading last week. The 45-year-old Norwegian – appointed until the end of the season – could surpass Busby’s record with victory against Tottenham in the Premier League on Sunday. Asked about Solskjaer following Manchester City’s 9-0 humiliation of Burton Albion in the first leg of the EFL Cup semi-finals on Wednesday, Guardiola reporters: “His start is much better than mine, I lost my first game and drew the second [after being appointed in 2016]....

It’s always about where Bobby Petrino has been since leaving Louisville the first time — which included a stop-and-go with the Atlanta Falcons and an Arkansas stint cut short by that infamous motorcycle crash. It should be about where Petrino is going. Back to Louisville, back in a Power 5 conference, back in a better spot than probably he could have imagined in 2012. He didn’t have to go through hell....

The History of Menstrual Pads and Products Keep in mind that rags were just one option, as women through history have used natural products such as moss, grass, fur, and sheep’s wool. Stories abound of papyrus being the preferred menstruation product in antiquity but because menstrual history was often not recorded, it’s hard to know exactly what was used. Eventually, “rags” and pins were replaced by disposable pads held in place by elastic menstrual belts....
