What are metaballs, and why should you be using them? Here’s our take on these highly versatile little globs of goo. What Are Metaballs in Blender? A metaball is a single point in 3D space that acts as the source of a static field of predetermined attributes governed by math alone.

Known as WAGs, the wives and girlfriends of professional athletes can often attract just as much attention as what is happening on the pitch.

It took years of dogged persistence and the accretion of many facts to get Iraq to fess up to its bioweapons program. The final tally was grim: Iraq had filled hundreds of bombs and missiles with anthrax and other agents. It had experimented with camelpox, a benign bug in its own right but more likely a stand-in for the much more worrisome smallpox virus. And it had begun to make small amounts of anthrax powder....

The fully decorated 50-foot Christmas tree, adorned with 10,000 glass ornaments and 100,000 lights, was engulfed in flames outside the News Corp. building that houses Fox News, The Wall Street Journal and the New York Post.

With Norwich City having beaten Millwall 4-3 earlier on Saturday to go three points clear at the top, Marcelo Bielsa’s side required victory to move into pole position. But it was West Brom who deservedly took the spoils from an action-packed encounter, Darren Moore’s side – who had hit the woodwork through Jay Rodriguez in the first half – carving Leeds’ defence open at will after the interval. Hal Robson-Kanu got the rout started, slotting home at the culmination of a slick counter-attack after Leeds’ Kemar Roofe had a penalty appeal turned down at the other end....

The Blue Jackets followed up last week’s additions of Ottawa forwards Matt Duchene and Ryan Dzingel by acquiring New York Rangers defenseman Adam McQuaid and New Jersey goalie Keith Kinkaid before Monday’s NHL trade deadline.

A year after reaching the Stanley Cup Final, the Vegas Golden Knights not only acquired Ottawa forward Mark Stone but also reached an agreement to sign the pending unrestricted free agent and five-time 20-goal-scorer to a contract extension....

The Ghanaian fluffed the spot kick in their 3-2 home reversal at the London Stadium, despite making amends with a goal moments later. On a rare start, the 28-year-old spurned the opportunity to restore parity after Henri Saivet and Mohamed Diame gave the away side a 2-1 lead, Marko Arnautovic having opened the scoring for the Hammers in the sixth minute. “It would have been a different ball game if we had levelled it at 2-2 [from the penalty or open play], one hundred per cent, but you have to take your chances and we didn’t, so we have to move forward and get some points away at Bournemouth," Reid said, as reported by his club’s official website....
