The duo lost their Women’s Tag Team Championships to Alexa Bliss and Nikki Cross, the current and first-ever two-time champions, on August 5th, ending their reign at 120 days. With Asuka and Kairi Sane out of the tag title picture, it seemed that now was the perfect time for the Australians to make their long-awaited return to the ring. The IIconics pick up where they left off During A Moment of Bliss, The IIconics interrupted Bliss and Cross before challenging them to a match....

Posted on Netflix’s YouTube channel, the CG animation features a multitude of crusty ashen figures in various poses and in various states of decay. Skeletons, faceless humanoids, and a blackened heart get their time in the spotlight as the digital camera zooms around them, all flecked by fiery highlights. Backed by an epic orchestral score from Tadayoshi Makino, who composed the music for the game, there seems to be a bit of a disconnect between the bleak vibe of the visuals and the driving, almost triumphant feel of the backing song....

Under the direction of Fujisaki, ““O.J., the Sequel’’ was shaping up as a more finely tuned, fast-paced version of the first trial. As it happened, the star missed the opening days. Simpson was in an Orange County family courthouse fighting Nicole Brown Simpson’s parents for custody of his two children, Sydney and Justin. The judge put off a decision until at least November, leaving the children with their grandparents. They started school last week; Simpson sees them on alternate weekends....

So you can understand the excitement the team had following their victory in the NBA’s Las Vegas Summer League championship game on Monday night. The Kings defeated the Houston Rockets 77-68 behind a 26-point performance from Ray McCallum Jr. The Kings have a good young core of players, led by DeMarcus Cousins. But in a Western Conference loaded with talented teams, this is the closest the Kings are going to get to a championship celebration....

An antiseptic war, fought by pilots flying safely three miles high. It seems almost too good to be true–and it was. In fact–as some critics suspected at the time–the air campaign against the Serb military in Kosovo was largely ineffective. NATO bombs plowed up some fields, blew up hundreds of cars, trucks and decoys, and barely dented Serb artillery and armor. According to a suppressed Air Force report obtained by NEWSWEEK, the number of targets verifiably destroyed was a tiny fraction of those claimed: 14 tanks, not 120; 18 armored personnel carriers, not 220; 20 artillery pieces, not 450....

Marshall, who has created films like the recent Hellboy reboot and The Reckoning, made waves in the horror world with 2005’s The Descent, in which a group of women on an outdoor spelunking adventure journey into an unexplored cave inhabited by a horrifying world of creatures they must try to escape from. The film has been praised for its mix of feminist themes, monster horror, slow-build dread, and old-fashioned gore....

The flag is nearly 10,000 square feet and weighs around 340 pounds, featuring three feet wide stars and stripes that are five feet high. But as thunderstorms hit the state on June 2, leaving thousands without power, the flag was torn into shreds. Although the flag was torn apart, it will soon be replaced. Acuity Insurance said on Twitter: “We are aware of the damage to the U.S. flag on our property caused by the severe storms this evening....

Along with the trailer, the release date was also reaffirmed. Paramount Plus will be streaming the iCarly reboot in mid-June, 2021. The first scene within the trailer features a flashback of the cast back in 2012, picking up right where the title character’s storyline wrapped up. Seeing the past footage of the cast draws even more attention to the fact that the characters are now fully-fledged adults. RELATED: 10 Best Comedy Movies You Can Only Stream On HBO Max...

Some players are probably wondering what lies in the future of Xbox Live Gold, especially now that Xbox players are slowly transitioning from the Xbox One to the Xbox Series X. As of the moment, Microsoft hasn’t revealed any plans for Xbox Live Gold, which suggests that the service will run as usual in 2021. Despite this, here are some predictions of what players should expect from Xbox Live Gold this year....

This is not a coincidence. There have been five great waves of mergers in the past century, each one building in some way toward the unprecedented mania of the late 1990s. Driven by Wall Street enthusiasm for the New Economy, the sum spent on mergers and acquisitions hit a staggering peak of $3.4 trillion in 2000, when a deal was cut somewhere on the globe every 17 minutes. The CEOs at the center of this swirl insisted they could avoid the pitfalls that have given giant mergers an infamous record of failure, but few did....

But for some (congenital Bush-bashers, the Irvine Housing Blog, critics of rampant consumerism), the parade of bad news is an occasion for schadenfreude. They enjoy seeing inhabitants of the formerly high-flying sectors that got us into the mess—real estate and Wall Street—being laid low. Others hold out hope that a recession will iron out distortions in the housing market, thus allowing them to move into previously unaffordable neighborhoods. Some econo-fretters hold out hope that reduced imports and the weaker dollar—both likely byproducts of a recession—will help close the trade deficit....

Superman’s future is up in the air, pun intended, but his past is unquestionable. The character has been portrayed by several actors, perhaps none more famous than Christopher Reeve. It was Reeve’s iteration that helped launch the superhero market into the stratosphere and beyond. For example, Tim Burton’s Batman movies, the first featuring the Dark Knight in decades at that point, were commissioned only after the success of Superman in 1978....

So, with that in mind, here’s what James Corden and “The Late Late Show” cooked up last night after the Super Bowl. It’s the biggest sports movies ever wrapped up in a nice little 7-minute package. Everyone had fun. It’ll probably win you over by the end. MORE: ‘Woo guy’ ruins the Super Bowl for everyone

Apparently, someone out there wants Mike Huckabee to drop out of the race, or at least wants us all to think he’s about to. Just before 1 p.m. today an e-mail went out to 19 members of the Huckabee campaign, seemingly sent by campaign chair Ed Rollins, with the subject “Campaign Announcement.” The e-mail explained that Rollins had just had a long conversation with Huckabee, and it included a message from the candidate himself saying that he’d be offering his formal concession this evening–quite the shock to members of the traveling press, who are scheduled to fly with Huckabee to Little Rock tonight and have been told again and again and again by candidate and advisers alike that he will not be conceding tonight, if ever....

But still, I don’t know what it’s like to be a woman. I just don’t. I don’t know what it’s like to be a woman in the workplace. Or walking the streets of New York. Or in a classroom. Or at the doctor. Similarly, if you’ve never faced the exhausting gauntlet of racism, bigotry and white supremacy in the world, it’s hard for a book or a Black friend to close that knowledge gap....

As of Apex Legends’ thirteenth season, Saviors, there are 21 playable legends. Not all of these legends can say they have abilities that are all their own, but every character brings just enough of a twist to the game’s formula that shakes it up and gets players excited for each new season. And while it is nice for players to have their own personal roster to choose from, it is just as integral that they take the time to learn how each of Apex Legends’ characters plays....

Social Skills Affected by Autism In some cases, people with autism lack very basic social skills. They may find it very difficult (or even impossible) to make eye contact, ask and answer questions, or respond appropriately with please and thank you. These basic skills, while they are not enough to support a meaningful relationship, are important tools for self-advocacy and for interacting with any member of the community. In other cases, basic communication skills are intact, but there are gaps in understanding others’ thoughts and feelings and responding appropriately....

In this week’s episode of the Inside Line F1 Podcast, Mithila Mehta joins Kunal Shah. The duo talk about Jules Bianchi, his achievements and ‘what could have been’ for the French racer including the legacy that he will leave behind for the sport. As Raikkonen’s replacement seems imminent, they also try and list all his possible replacements and pick their favourite. Is F1 too safe? Will drivers have Bianchi in their minds when they race in Hungary?...

The bottom 4 from each group has it rough. They will be playing best of one knockout matches in the lower bracket against opponents that cannot be considered pushovers by any stretch of the imagination. These 8 teams are one loss away from being knocked out of the largest tournament in eSports history! Here’s a quick recap of how we ended up at this point via Day 3 of the group stages....
