The Nigerian superstar was one of several artists from the West African country to be honored at the award ceremony. WizKid, who collaborated with Tems on the global smash hit “Essence,” was a special guest at the award show, which was also attended by Davido, Rema and Tiwa Savage, who featured on Beyoncé’s The Lion King: The Gift album. For the first time in the award’s history, the event took place at the Cobb Energy Performing Arts Centre in Atlanta on Sunday, September 4....

Several national publications have put out Way Too Early Top 25 rankings for the 2022 college football season. The consensus at the top has not changed. Alabama, Ohio State and Georgia are the top three choices and likely will be the front-runners for the 2022-23 College Football Playoff. Who else could make a run? Sporting News posted its Way Too Early Top 25, but we also took a look at other publications....

Much of the credit for the latter goes to the superlative case, a Fractal Design Node 304 that’s tiny yet devastatingly effective. With a footprint of just 250 x 374 mm, and a height that barely touches the 210 mm mark, this is a truly compact little PC. But where once ‘small’ meant ‘shocking specifications’ – shockingly bad, that is – that’s not true for the Node 304. Sure, Computer Planet has had to jettison the optical drive – if you want to work with DVD or Blu-ray media, you’ll need to invest in an external USB model – and the lack of a reset button (or, for that matter, any buttons at all bar a power switch) takes some getting used to....

Conception marks the first step toward pregnancy—the sperm and egg have joined together, creating what is known as a zygote. In the coming days, the single-cell zygote transforms into a multi-celled embryo. But in order to facilitate pregnancy, the embryo must successfully move from the fallopian tubes and implant in the uterus, where it will continue to develop into a fetus and eventually an infant. Conception In Pregnancy Conception happens whenever a sperm and egg join together, making a single-cell embryo that is called a zygote....

But then came the mob of privileged white progressives to exploit this moment and declare themselves brave for speaking up. Spending less time talking about Floyd, and more about why they personally have experienced an awakening, these upscale urbanites turned a tragic death into an opportunity to pat themselves on the backs. And though you didn’t ask, they are quick to tell you that they proudly fight bigotry. Except, they don’t....

Shingles can also present with flu-like symptoms, a fever, and severe fatigue (malaise), which other conditions do not. If you have a rash that suddenly occurs, it’s important to consult with a healthcare provider to determine what’s causing it. Shingles and conditions that can be mistaken for it have very different causes and, thus, require very different treatments. Below are other common rashes that would likely not be mistaken for shingles....

House Democrats this week tucked language into a federal spending bill that would order the removal of Confederate statues from any public areas of the Capitol—including at least 11 statues that have represented their states for decades. The move follows public comments from House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-California, and other Democrats seeking to have the controversial memorials removed. Pelosi penned a letter to Congressional leaders on key building committees urging them to move forward with the effort, even though it’s traditionally been left up to states....

What does it all mean? I couldn’t tell you, so I turned to Daniel Roberts for a few answers, as well as a cryptocurrency primer. Dan, a former reporter for Fortune and Yahoo! Finance, is editor-in-chief of the cryptocurrency website Decrypt. Edited excerpts of our conversation: Q: Dan, first off tell me a little about Decrypt. Are you there for the retail investor? The corporate treasurer? Elon Musk? A: Decrypt was launched in 2018 amid what was called the “crypto winter....

Charlie Kolar leads the CFBDynasty TE rankings. The 6-6, 260-pound big man is in Kyle Pitts, but he puts up big numbers and can run well after the catch in a balanced Iowa State attack. Quarterback Brock Purdy will find his favorite guy on the field for chunk plays. At No. 3, Arik Gilbert was once the No. 5 overall prospect in the nation, per 24/7Sports. After transferring to Georgia from LSU, he’s in line for an explosive breakout season....

Day was named as the Buckeyes’ new head coach in December last year when Urban Meyer stepped down and he has a lot to live up to, given his predecessor went 83-9 with a cumulative 54-4 record in Big Ten games in seven seasons in Columbus. Ohio State raced to a 28-0 lead in the first quarter as Justin Fields marked his debut in style after transferring from Georgia, going 18-of-25 for 234 yards and four touchdowns and adding 61 yards....

LSU experienced the latter Saturday night as it lost to Texas A&M 38-23 to fall to 9-3 on the season. It was a gutting defeat for the No. 5 Tigers, who entered the game with a relatively clear path to the College Football Playoff: beat the Aggies, beat No. 1 Georgia in the SEC championship game, and then hope that was enough for the committee.

No. 7 Oklahoma and No. 19 Texas square off in the Red River Rivalry on Saturday, a game that has serious implications on the Big 12 this year — and maybe even the College Football Playoff.
