After reeling in the giant fish and getting it weighed and measured by an official from the West Virginia Division of Natural Resources, Luke King released the muskellunge (Esox masquinongy) back into the wild. “I’ve been musky fishing for around 18 years and I normally get out one to two days a week,” King told Newsweek. “She fought very hard but I had the gear to tame her and the fight only lasted a couple of minutes....

Last week, I had a chance to interview Dr. Rice, as everyone calls her. She had returned the night before from Moscow, where she set up a series of meetings between Russians and Americans on missile defense and arms control and had just been discussing the ins and outs of the ABM treaty with a group of reporters. But I wanted to hear her views on race, education and her own upbringing in segregated Birmingham, Ala....

Let’s start with the backdrop for the speech itself. Scott Sforza–the Emmy-award winning ABC producer who does the White House TV image crafting–outdid himself this time. Bush will be standing on Ellis Island rather than Governor’s Island, which was also considered. That is symbolic in itself. Message: immigrants still welcome. But the bonus is that the camera angle of the Statue of Liberty is better from there. With that American icon over his shoulder, Bush doesn’t even have to say the word freedom (though he will) to remind people of the sacrifices we have to make for it....

Westbrook’s latest triple-double is one of his most impressive. He had 13 rebounds and 11 assists, but scored 57 points in Oklahoma City’s 114-106 win over the Orlando Magic on Wednesday. The 57 points scored is the most ever in a triple-double in NBA history. Westbrook was 21 of 40 from the floor, including six of 15 from behind the three-point line. The previous record for points scored in a triple-double was 53, set by Wilt Chamberlain in 1968 and then tied by James Harden earlier this season....

It should come as no surprise that the abilities of the duo were missed immensely last night against Bayern. The fundamental link the two would provide to this BVB team was non-existent; the link between the defense and the first person to take charge of the midfield. Then again, the erratic Jürgen Klopp would try to play the card of either Sahin, Grosskreutz or Bender could replace Gündo?an’s even if his arms and legs were all chopped off the previous evening....

What Prime’s Early Access Sale Means For Gamers If the Early Access Sale does follow the same trend as Prime Day, then gamers can expect to see plenty of reductions on a wide range of controllers. Prime Day saw Xbox Series X and PS5 DualSense controllers drop by about $10-15, which is always a welcome deal for anyone looking for a replacement controller or an extra for split-screen. A handful of console bundles may also end up on sale, though these will probably revolve around the Xbox Series S and Nintendo Switch, as the Xbox Series X and PS5 are still selling like hotcakes....

Goldman Sachs CEO David Solomon told CNBC that there is a good chance of a recession and that a downturn in the economy could make investing and business decisions more difficult. “I think it’s a time to be cautious, and I think that if you’re running a risk-based business, it’s a time to think more cautiously about your risk box, your risk appetite,” Solomon said during a live interview....

One of the small yet noticeable changes to the canon of the Thousand-Year Blood War Arc is the introduction of technology to Seireitei, as fan-favorite Shinigami are seen with cellphones, social media accounts, televisions and more. The residents of Soul Society can now make contact with their friends in Karakura Town much easier - and Mayuri Kurotsuchi is like a kid in a candy store. The major theme of this Bleach Manga revolves around the Konso Reisai Festival, which is an infrequent and somber occasion that pays tribute to the Soul Reapers that have passed....

Relative references adjust and change based on their location in a spreadsheet. Absolute references, on the other hand, stay the same regardless of where they are copied. So if you write a formula in cell C1 that makes an absolute reference to cell A1, you will still refer to cell A1 and B1 even after pasting this formula to cell C2. However, a relative reference refers to cells A2 and B2....

These filters aren’t limited to websites like Google. Any website with a search tool can incorporate additional search choices, including people search engines, music and video streaming sites, email programs and websites, social media platforms, and blogs. Common Advanced Search Option Filters The best web search engines like Google, Yahoo, DuckDuckGo, and Bing all have tabs you can select after performing a search that limits the results to things like web pages, videos, images, map directions, news, etc....

However, if BIOS encounters an issue but hasn’t booted far enough to be able to display a POST error message on the monitor, a beep code—an audible version of an error message—will sound instead. Beep codes are especially helpful if the root cause of the problem has something to do with video. If you can’t read an error message or error code on the screen because of a video-related problem, it’s definitely going to deter your efforts of finding out what’s wrong....

Midterms typically see 10-15% fewer voters than presidential elections, but 2018’s midterms had the highest turnout in history! 2022 is likely to be an even bigger deal. The official midterms election date for 2022 is November 8th, although most states allow citizens to vote earlier if they’d like. Every state has a different number of representatives based on how many people live there, although the number of representatives is fixed at 435....

Polyphenols act as antioxidants in the body, meaning they help protect the body and neutralize free radicals that cause damage to cells. Free radicals are highly reactive oxygen molecules produced by normal cell processes and external factors like radiation, air pollution, smoking, and chemical exposure. Without antioxidants to neutralize free radicals, cells are injured, increasing your risk of health problems like diabetes, heart disease, and cancer. Keep reading to learn more about the types of polyphenols, health benefits, and potential risks....

What Are Uninterruptible Power Supplies Used For? Most UPS should turn on almost instantly when a power disruption is detected, providing uninterrupted electrical power to the connected systems. The amount of time a UPS can operate depends on the model, lasting anywhere from a few minutes to several hours, to always-on. Then users have time to safely shut down their hardware or connect to another power source. In the case of an always-on UPS, they continually protect critical equipment....

In the 2018 midterm elections, Republicans received just 8 percent of the Black vote, consistent with historical patterns and identical to President Trump’s share of the Black vote in both 2016 and 2020. In 2022, however, 14 percent of Black voters cast their ballots for Republican candidates—a 75 percent shift in just two years. It’s likely that Donald Trump’s absence from the ballot drove some of this shift. But it’s also true that Democrats received a smaller share of the Black vote in 2022 than they have in decades....

The Gunners started a Premier League encounter against the Cherries with Mathieu Debuchy operating in his most natural position, but the Frenchman lasted just 16 minutes. Debuchy limps off injured With Hector Bellerin currently sidelined and Carl Jenkinson seemingly out of favour after two disjointed displays against Manchester United and Paris Saint-Germain, Wenger was forced to get creative as another senior star headed back to the treatment table. He admits videos of Gabriel playing at full-back during his time at Vitoria in his native Brazil were not ‘super convincing’, but he was left with little choice....

LONDON (Reuters) - Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger, for all his admirable qualities, has faults. He is not gracious in defeat, he is as stubborn as a mule and he often suffers from selective vision, to name a few. But as the charismatic Frenchman prepares to mark 20 years in charge of Arsenal at Burnley on Sunday it could be said his biggest fault is the ceaseless pursuit of silverware by playing fantasy football - a noble undertaking prone to failure....
