Want a caffeine boost in Finland? Forget it. A cup of espresso will set you back 2 euro. Stick to Spain, where it’s less than half that price. Driving across the Continent may seem like a great idea, but take care where you buy your petrol. Fill ’er up in Greece, where one liter costs only 0.67 euro, and cruise through Holland, where huge taxes hike a liter up to 1....
In an ocean photography competition, photos from around the world showcase what amazing work photographers can do underwater with just a small amount of equipment. Gaetano Dario Gargiulo started out diving and taking photos as a hobby, but his winning photo brings out the hidden colors beneath the waves of the pools of Kamay Botany Bay National Park near his home in New South Wales, Australia. “If you are just starting you may want to start with an action camera or even your mobile phone,” Gargiulo, winner of Best of Show in the Ocean Art Underwater Photo Competition, recommended in an email to Lifewire....

At the time of this writing, there’s still a lot left to learn about the Highlands expansion for Conan Exiles and the content it will bring to the game. We do know that the expansion will be set in snowy environments, as opposed to the open world desert that players can currently explore on PC. With just a couple months left to go until the expansion is available to both PC and Xbox One gamers, fans can expect Funcom to pull the curtain back sooner rather than later....
However, if a new video documenting the team’s work between 2015 and 2016 is to be believed, Turtle Rock wasn’t as keen to move away from the triple-A scene as many first thought, with the beloved studio allegedly dreaming up a brand new Left 4 Dead successor. The game was called Invaders, and saw players tasked with fending off an alien invasion that was ravaging the United Kingdom.

Founded in 2003, RockCorps is a national youth volunteer movement that uses music to inspire social responsibility. In 2005 it formed a partnership with Boost Mobile, the youth-oriented telecommunications company. The beauty of big corporate sponsors, of course, is their big budgets for advertising, which helps to spread the do-good message. Since joining forces with Boost Mobile, RockCorps has persuaded more than 30,000 teenagers and young adults across the country to serve their communities by donating time to various nonprofits in exchange for tickets to a concert....
Every football fan looks ahead to two things, winning silverware and enjoying watching the games. And as long as the first need is satisfied, we may forget about the second one. Yes, football is a glory sport, you win and all is forgotten, you lose and all hell may break loose. And Chelsea has not won anything this season. To add to that there have been a large number of games, which haven’t exactly been a joy to watch....
Hay cuatro modelos entre los que escoger: el modelo buque insignia Ryzen 9 5950X viene acompañado del Ryzen 9 5900X, el Ryzen 7 5800X y el Ryzen 5 5600X. Son algo más caros que la serie Ryzen 3000 del año pasado, pero sin igual de atractivos. No obstante, no todos los ordenadores PC con procesadores Ryzen ofrecen soporte para los nuevos chips. Pero no te preocupes. A continuación, encontrarás todo lo que necesitas saber antes de instalar los Ryzen 500 en tu equipo....
West Virginia will visit Stillwater as winners of three games in a row but covering just one of its last four, which was last Saturday’s 41-27 upset of the Bears as 8.5-point home underdogs. Meanwhile, the Cowboys saw their five-game winning streak come to a grinding halt with a 42-9 loss last week at TCU as 10.5-point road dogs. They have also failed to cover three of their past four....
Ohio State is hoping to knock off reigning champion Georgia, while TCU and Michigan are looking to take the next step and reach the title game for the first time. TCU and Michigan will begin the day with the Fiesta Bowl in Glendale, Ariz., followed by Ohio State and Georgia in the Peach Bowl in Atlanta. The games will be broadcast on ESPN, but there are ways you can watch them without cable....
No. 1 Alabama meets No. 4 Cincinnati in the Cotton Bowl Classic at 3:30 p.m. ET. The Crimson Tide are overwhelming 14-point favorites in this matchup. Our entire six-person panel is rolling with Alabama, but does anyone have the Bearcats covering the spread? No. 2 Michigan meets No. 3 Georgia in the Orange Bowl at 7:30 p.m. ET. The Bulldogs are touchdown-favorites in what should be a fun matchup with Big Ten-SEC heat....
Alabama shows no signs of slowing down its blistering offensive pace, coming off a game in which it became the first SEC team to open its season with three games of at least 50 points scored. The Tide face an Aggies team, however, that looks to be on the right track under Jimbo Fisher and came achingly close to beating No. 2 Clemson in a 28-26 loss. MORE: SN’s Week 4 Power Rankings...
The Big Ten will play football for the first time in 2020 after postponing its season on Aug. 11 — the first Power 5 conference to do so amid the COVID-19 pandemic. The Week 8 slate of games marks the first of eight consecutive weeks those teams will play without a bye before the conference’s championship game. That starts on Friday, when Illinois travels to Madison, Wis., to take on No....
The upset of the week is Oklahoma, which fell out of College Football Playoff contention for now with an upset loss to previously unranked Kansas State. Notre Dame and Wisconsin were also booted from Playoff contention after blowouts against Michigan and Ohio State, respectively. The same goes for Auburn, which lost a hard-fought game at No. 2 LSU.

The Mid-American Conference begins its crazy weekday schedule, and the premier team of the league, undefeated Western Michigan, kicks off the slate with a road game at Ball State on Tuesday, Nov. 1. Week 10 has some other great matchups, including another Top 10 showdown in the Big Ten between Nebraska and Ohio State, and LSU interim coach Ed Orgeron gets his shot at upsetting Alabama this week.

The College Football Playoff picture cleared up considerably Saturday with when No. 6 Baylor, No. 7 Stanford and No. 9 LSU all lost. The committee already seemed wary of Baylor after the season-ending injury to QB Seth Russell, and now after losing to Oklahoma and Heisman dark horse Baker Mayfield 44-34, the playoff decision makers can confidently push the Bears aside. No. 8 Oklahoma State is now the lone unbeaten in the Big 12, but its unimpressive 35-31 victory over a 3-6 Iowa State team doesn’t bode well for the Cowboys or the conference....
