Sivalingam and Ragala strike gold You will remember Sathish Kumar Sivalingam as the weightlifting champion who always wore a smile from the Glasgow Games in 2014. Today, it looked like he had lost neither his touch at lifting nor his smile as he made it back-to-back golds at the Commonwealth Games, successfully defending his gold medal in the Men’s 77kg category in impressive fashion. He couldn’t quite match his overall tally from Glasgow, but with a score of 317 kg - 144 in the Snatch and 173 in the Clean & Jerk - Sivalingam secured the gold medal....

It doesn’t take a cientifico to decode the game plan devised by Bush strategist Karl (Carlos) Rove. From visits to the pope to speeches in Spanish, from buddying up with Mexico’s president to championing his country’s trucking industry, Bush aims to win the hearts and votes of America’s salsa moms and dads. Now the nation’s largest minority (35 million), Latinos are the prize in the defining battle of politics in the new millennium....

A look at all three polls reveals even more chalk. Ohio State, Florida State and USC are the next three despite varying orders across the three polls, but that jives with Sporting News preseason bowl projections. MORE: Preseason AP No. 1 teams that won it all How does the AP Poll compare with the Amway Coaches Poll and Sporting News Preseason Top 25?

Halo players have come to know and love the powerful Needler, and it has become one of the most recognizable weapons in the FPS genre. It would only make sense that other shooters would take notice and craft their own versions, and High on Life’s Sweezy very much feels like that. Yet, she also feels very different and unique. Halo fans may be drawn in by her abilities, but they will soon discover something very special underneath....

The Ebon Hawk, featured in the Knights of the Old Republic saga, was also instrumental in galactic history during its time. Commonly known as the ship flown by the amnesiac Darth Revan in the time around the Jedi Civil War, the Ebon Hawk was used extensively during his hunt for Darth Malak and the Star Forge. In Knights of the Old Republic’s sequel, The Sith Lords, the ship was crewed by the jedi exile Meetra Surik in her quest to reunite the broken Jedi Order after its near-total annihilation at the hands of the Sith Triumvirate....

In addition to being a DLC for New Horizons, Happy Home Paradise is also something of a spin-off. Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer is a full game developed and released in 2015 for the Nintendo 3DS featuring the same premise. Happy Home Designer was never a part of the main Animal Crossing series, but it was the first Animal Crossing game compatible with amiibo, and it allowed players to express their creativity in ways mainline Animal Crossing games didn’t....

What Is Composite Video? The composite video connector is the oldest and most common video connection that is still in use. It can still be found on many video source components and display devices, including VCRs, camcorders, DVD players, cable/satellite boxes, video projectors, and TVs. However, composite video connections have been eliminated from Blu-ray disc players and most newer streaming devices. Composite video signals are analog and typically consist of 480i (NTSC)/576i (PAL) standard-definition resolution video signals....

At least three in 10 people incarcerated or working in state and federal prisons have contracted COVID-19,resulting in more than 2,600 deaths. In the federal prison system alone, there have been more than 50,000 cases and nearly 250 deaths. The specific risks faced by those in federal prisons have drawn attention to a legal safety net known as compassionate release, which the Federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP) has long neglected....

Apenas ha pasado un mes desde que Estados Unidos prohibiera a las empresas americanas hacer negocios con Huawei debido a una supuesta amenaza a la seguridad nacional, y el presidente Trump ya parece haber suavizado su postura. En una conferencia de prensa del G20 el pasado sábado, anunció que “las empresas estadounidenses continuarán haciendo negocios con el asediado gigante de las telecomunicaciones”. Aunque no está claro si esto se extiende a la tecnología de red 5G que Huawei está desarrollando, ciertamente se aplica a Google y Android....

2021 COLLEGE FANTASY RANKINGS:Quarterback | Running back | Wide receiver | Tight end | Kicker | Top 200 Whether it’s because of elite defenses or awful offenses, the Big Ten is always a low-scoring conference, and they possess eight of the top 22 defenses in the rankings. The SEC comes in second with six. You shouldn’t ignore the other conferences, but a top Big Ten or SEC defense likely won’t disappoint....

It’s true not every bowl game is created equal, but these games represent the final few contests of the 2019 college football season before it picks back up next season. That said, there’s no reason you shouldn’t watch as many as possible. MORE: Watch select NCAA bowl games live with fuboTV (7-day free trial) That’s especially true for this year’s College Football Playoff semifinal games, which take place on Saturday in the Peach Bowl between LSU and Oklahoma and Fiesta Bowl between Ohio State and Clemson....

The matchup between the Buckeyes and Irish is part of a loaded five-day weekend that starts with the renewal of the Backyard Brawl between No. 17 Pittsburgh and West Virginia on Thursday and ends with the ACC opener between No. 4 Clemson and Georgia Tech on Monday. There also are ranked matchups between No. 3 Georgia and No. 11 Oregon and No. 19 Arkansas and No. 23 Cincinnati. Of those 17 games involving FBS teams in the Top 25, a total of four have single-digit spreads....

Tennessee was ranked No. 1 by the College Football Playoff committee last week, remember? It was also an 8.5-point underdog at Georgia. So when No. 1 went down, in rather convincing fashion, it was, you know, not an upset. Counterintuitive, of course, because if you are No. 1, you should, in theory, be expected to win. But Georgia has the better team, Vegas knew Georgia had the better team, and the game played out that way....

This time, however, it was guaranteed: No. 8 Michigan State was the victor in a 37-33 victory over No. 6 Michigan in Spartan Stadium. Michigan State overcame a 30-14 second-half deficit, scoring touchdowns and 2-point conversions on consecutive drives to tie the game late. The Spartans defense also came up huge, limiting the Wolverines to three fourth-quarter points and forcing two turnovers in the period — including a game-clinching interception — to seal the victory....

A total of the 76 FBS schools — six conferences and three independent programs — have made the decision to forge on amid the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States. A total of 54 schools canceled their fall sports season, which trimmed the down from the traditional 130-team total. The Saturday slates are not quite as full as a result, and the regular season will run from Sept. 3 through Dec....

Scanning the college football slate earlier in the week was a disappointing five minutes. No top-10 matchups. No conference rivalry clashes. Nothing that felt like appointment viewing. Heck, ESPN and College GameDay even opted to avoid the snoozefest schedule and instead went to FCS James Madison — which was actually pretty cool. However, to the delight of football fans near and far, Saturday had no shortage of moments that forced viewers to rewind their DVRs....
