Blackburn Rovers have seen a slight dip in form in their race for promotion in recent games. They were beaten 1-0 by 10-man Swansea City last time out and were particularly guilty of wasteful finishing as they created enough chances to both level the scores and take the lead. The home side sit second in the Championship standings with 53 points from 30 games. They will now be looking to return to winning ways when they play this week....

The Blackhawks announced on Oct. 26 the results of an independent investigation following allegations of sexual assault by a former player and the subsequent coverup by team officials. “It is clear the organization and its executives at that time did not live up to our own standards or values in handling these disturbing incidents,” a letter to the community from the Blackhawks read. “We deeply regret the harm caused to John Doe and the other individuals who were affected and the failure to promptly respond....

Whatever else Blackwater is or isn’t guilty of—a topic of intense interest in Washington—it has a well-earned reputation in Iraq for arrogance and high-handedness. Iraqis naturally have the most serious complaints; dozens have been killed by Blackwater operatives since the beginning of the war. But many American civilian and military officials in Iraq also have little sympathy for the private security company and its highly paid employees. With an uproar growing in Congress over Blackwater’s alleged excesses, the North Carolina-based company is finding few supporters....

“I don’t think so,” Stafford told reporters Wednesday (via ESPN.com), when asked if the finger was a problem. “You know, you look back at (the interceptions) and maybe the one in Chicago was a poor throw, behind him. For the most part, it’s been more (decision-making) or close (plays) here or there. “So it’s something that obviously I’m trying to eliminate as much as possible,” he said of the interceptions, “while still staying aggressive....

We all have blasts. In fact, each of us started out as a blast or, more precisely, a blastocyst (a jumble of cells that divides enough times to become an embryo). When different types of blasts appear in unexpected places, however, or when abnormal blasts develop, they can be an indicator of cancer or another disease. This article discusses blasts and myeloblasts, how they form, and the conditions that affect them....

Game 5 Odds: Portland -2.5, Total: 197.5 Series Lead: Tied 2-2 The home team has won and covered the spread in every game this series. The Clippers (55-31 SU, 42-42-2 ATS) took care of business in the first two games at home, 115-95 and 102-81. Both were as 8.5-point favorites. A sweep looked like a real possibility or a five-game series at the most. However, calamity has struck with L....

With Rukia Kuchiki to show him the ropes, Ichigo learns how to use his Zanpakuto to defeat Hollows and liberate trapped souls by using Konsō to guide them safely to Seireitei. Ichigo has been so in tune with the spirit world that he allegedly could not tell the difference in his youth, and he had met his fair share of Hollows before even knowing what they were. Here are some helpful details about the Spirit World that would have made Ichigo’s life a little easier....

Episode 3 of BLEACH: Thousand-Year Blood War saw the reveal of a device that is a part of the basic structure in the conception of the major factions or races in the BLEACH universe: each race has an ability of some kind that grants them an immense boost in combat potential and can in theory turn the tide of any battle in their favour. For the Quincies, this ultimate ability was explored when Uryu used the Letzt Stil; however, the Sternritter officer Quilge Opie reveals that this move is a relic of the past – the Quincies now make use of an incredibly powerful ability known as Quincy: Völlstandig....

The Warcraft IP has been home to some of the best-known games, including World of Warcraft and spin-offs like Hearthstone. The IP had its own hype when it was created but has increased in volume over the years. Blizzard has gone on a bit of a backburner over the last few years, with the existing titles bringing the core of the revenue. Revenues were indeed the talk of the moment as Activision Blizzard completed their Q3 meeting....

It’s not because the mode is teaming with awesome moments and subsequent gaping flaws - it’s a straightforward, effective four player co-op premise that demands little in the way of appreciation or beration (read more in our review). Rather, many are simply trying to figure out just how the hell it all factors in to the main campaign’s ending. Millions of gamers have spent untold hours (and six years) gallivanting through the galaxy with Commander Shepard, and it would be a shame to lose to the Reapers on account of a multiplayer technicality....

A full field of 132 players from around the globe were teeing up in the Asian Tour’s UMA CNS Open Championship at Karachi Golf Club, the latest thawing of relations with the militancy-hit country that has spent years in the sporting wilderness. “Coming back to Pakistan is a fantastic opportunity for us,” Robert Andrew, event director of the Asian Tour told AFP, brushing off any security concerns. “This is the starting point for future years after the success of this event....

That being said, the failure rates of some methods are significantly higher than others. You need to decide what level of effectiveness is most acceptable to you. There also are actions that you can either start doing or stop yourself from doing that can actually have an effect on your birth control method. Typical Use vs. Perfect Use To understand how to determine the effectiveness of contraception, it is important to know that effectiveness rates are often provided as typical user rates and perfect use rates....

Kain Roomes, 29, first invested in Bitcoin in March 2018 after his dad encouraged him to look into crypto. Roomes, then a part-time model, was behind on his mortgage, had considerable debts and no disposable income, he said. He decided to sell his $8,200 Rolex he’d received as a 22nd birthday present years earlier to fund his first investment. Roomes bought different cryptocurrencies and studied the market, learning about the best times and places to invest, he said....

Lake Baikal is the world’s deepest known lake and, at an estimated 25 million years old, is also one of the oldest. It formed from a rift valley and, because of its isolation, is “one of the world’s richest and most unusual freshwater faunas,” UNESCO notes. The ice rings were first spotted via satellite images in the early 2000s. The rings were found to have darker, thinner ice at the edge, with thicker ice in the center....

The event is of particular interest because the feasting black hole is a type of object that has thus far proved elusive to astronomers, an intermediate-mass black hole. An intermediate mass black hole is a black hole with a mass of between 100 and 10,000 times that of the sun. Lying between smaller stellar mass black holes and gigantic supermassive black holes, they have remained difficult to spot as, like all black holes, they don’t emit light light....

The organization issued the statement via Instagram amid rare protests in the country against the nation’s authoritarian Communist government. BLM urged the U.S. to “immediately lift the economic embargo” against Cuba. The statement said the embargo had “the explicit intention of destabilizing the country and undermining Cubans’ right to choose their own government.” BLM’s statement went on to say that the Cuban people are “being punished by the U.S. government....

Starting today, Activision and Treyarch has made it so that the last-man-standing battle royale portion of Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 will be free for everyone to play from April 2, 2019 through April 30, 2019. Of course, there’s somewhat of a catch for those on console in that PS4 and Xbox One players will need an active subscription to PSN or Xbox Live. Aside from that, though, there’s no additional cost to try out the game’s Blackout mode....
