The former president was widely mocked for announcing he would be making a “major announcement” on Thursday, which was later revealed to be an NFT collection portraying him in guises such as a superhero, cowboy and astronaut, which could be bought for $99. Despite this, the entire collection of 45,000 NFTs featuring Trump has been minted in around 12 hours, according to OpenSea data, with nearly 14,000 people purchasing one or more of the online tokens....

Trump wrote in a Truth Social post on Wednesday that if Republicans are going to fight, “we ought to be fighting” McConnell and his wife, former Transportation Secretary Elaine Chao. The former President has repeatedly referred to Chao with a nickname that has been decried as racially insensitive and racist, and did so again in the new post. “The harm they have done to the Republican Party is incalculable,” Trump said of the two....

Trump made the announcement in a statement issued on his website on Wednesday, saying he would instead be endorsing another candidate for the May 24 primary. Republican candidates Trump sees as loyal, and who have enjoyed the former president’s backing, have often been successful in local elections. In both the 2018 and 2020 elections, Trump-endorsed candidates—such as former football coach Tommy Tuberville, now a junior senator from Alabama, and Jason Lewis, a Massachusetts state senator—won nearly every primary they competed in, according to political data website FiveThirtyEight....

On Tuesday night, they matched that mark and continued their upward trajectory in the rugged Western Conference. Luka Doncic scored 21 points and Wesley Matthews added 17 as the Mavericks won for the ninth time in 11 games, beating the Portland Trail Blazers 111-102. DeAndre Jordan added 12 points and 17 rebounds for Dallas, which won its eighth in a row at American Airlines Center for the first time since March 2011 - three months before they defeated Miami for the franchise’s only NBA title....

Taking 2 hours and 42 minutes to complete, Mitchell scored 1,062,800 to nab the world record in Donkey Kong. This was a grand achievement in itself, but Billy Mitchell couldn’t stop there. He then went on to achieve a high score of 1,270,900. Both high scores were verified by representatives of internationally recognized video game authority Twin Galaxies, at Boomers-Grand Prix Arcade in Dania Florida. Although the prior Donkey Kong record holder was Hank Chien, the most-recognized rivalry in gaming was between Billy Mitchell and Steve Wiebe....

Fans of Final Fantasy 7 will pretty much immediately recognize what the DOOM Eternal team was going for. But for those who can’t quite put their fingers on it: It’s the image of Cloud standing before Shinra Headquarters with his hand gripping the hilt of his Buster Sword. RELATED: Here is the Final Fantasy 7 Remake Voice Actor Cast List DOOM Eternal reflects this art by having Doom Slayer stand purposefully before the Tower of Babel with his hand gripping the hilt of his trusty new Crucible Energy Sword....

Fans of Doom Eternal have known a Horde Mode was coming for a while, and they’ve also had a good idea of what that features it would contain. As one might expect, Horde Mode will task players with slaughtering their way through waves of demons in a fast-paced, arcade-style challenge where speed and precision are key. However, it will also demand that players earn their arsenal of otherworldly weapons and complete a variety of bonus challenges to rack up points and prove their mastery....

Jaxxoon R’s work is inspired by another modder named Nitroactive, who originally added Crash to Doom, but without animation. Jaxxoon R decided to add an animated Crash to the mod, and he also went a step further by replacing every single enemy in the game with Crash. The end result is something that is not only terrifying, but also rather annoying, to the point that playing through the entirety of Doom with this mod activated would be a feat of Herculean proportions....

There are several reasons why Doom Patrol season 4 might be the last season for the quirky DC Comics show. There has been a massive shakeup at the top of DC’s movies and television division, and it doesn’t seem like anyone knows what movies will be made and what shows will get another season. Then there’s HBO Max, which has been cancelling shows left and right. Indeed, there are plenty of reasons to believe Doom Patrol could be winding down, even if there hasn’t been any official announcement....

The number of terrorist groups driven by religious rather than political zealotry is on the rise. Virtually unknown before the 1970s, such groups now number at least a dozen-from Christian white supremacists and messianic Jews to Islamic fundamentalists and radical Sikhs -says Bruce Hoffman, director of the Centre for the Study of Terrorism and political Violence at the University of St. Andrews. Religious zealots, he adds, are not out to score political blows but to wipe out entire classes of enemies....

LONDON (Reuters) - Several whistleblowers have approached the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) through a new programme set up after revelations of rampant state-sponsored doping in Russia, WADA President Craig Reedie said on Wednesday. WADA this month launched its “Speak Up” secure digital platform for athletes and others to report anti-doping violations. “We already have a number of whistleblowers speaking to us, so I am told,” said Reedie, speaking at the SportsPro Live conference....

So any tweet or status updated is seen by the viewer in another variation. This variation is a link that leads the unsuspecting user into the loop. Security firm Trend Micro has said that the Skype worm is ‘spreading fast’ and the messages are being seen in English and German.

Students returned to the university’s Storrs campus on Friday, the Hartford Courant reported. Administration officials went on to confirm four cases of the novel coronavirus, and identify a fifth possible infection, among members of its student body on Monday. As the university issued quarantine orders and released details about its approach to reducing future transmission risks, a video of Monday night’s crowded dormitory party began to circulate online. The video showed students enjoying what looked like a typical pre-pandemic social gathering....

With characters such as the entertaining duo, Caiman and Nikaidou, it’s hard not to crack a smile at their witty interactions even when the world around them is so incredibly gloomy. Even the ‘bad guys’ are pleasant to watch, with Noi and Shin’s loyal friendship, and Ebisu’s quirky antics.

That’s all to emphasize that Jelle Van Damme had big shoes to fill upon joining the Galaxy from Belgian side Standard Liege this past offseason, with Gonzalez departing for Liga MX club Pachuca. While the marauding center back proved his worth beyond any doubt during the regular season, building a convincing case for Newcomer of the Year and Defender of the Year honors, his playoff acumen remained to seen....

Chennai - Top seed N. Sriram Balaji completed a fine double as he outlasted Jeevan Nedunchezhiyan 6-7(6), 6-4, 6-0 in the singles final and the duo later paired to annex the doubles title in the BR Adityan-GNC ITF Men’s Futures tennis tournament here today.

Egemo’s condition is called sleep-related eating disorder (SRED), and it’s one of two night eating problems that doctors are just beginning to take seriously. The other is night eating syndrome (NES), in which patients wake multiple times during the night and are unable to fall asleep again unless they eat something. Although the two differ in some important ways–most notably, whether the person is conscious or not–they share many similarities....

Trump branded Biden’s time in office so far as “disastrous,” and issued scathing remarks on the new administration’s positions on a variety of issues thus far. Prior to Trump’s appearance at CPAC, the White House had indicated that whatever the former president said would not be a focus of its attention. “We’ll see what he says, but our focus is certainly not on what President Trump is saying at CPAC,” White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki told reporters last week....
