Gianluca Masi, with the Virtual Telescope Project (VTP), captured the scene on July 7 over Janiculum Hill in the Eternal City, facing northeast, after around 3:30 a.m. local time.

Her uptight dad mutters about smelly cheese and Iraq War betrayals. But the two of them—OK, OK, it’s a metaphor—actually have something to learn from each other. What we were going for was a clash of cultures, but funny. Our American father (all hypertension, reflexive right-wing nuttery, scolding puritan attitudes) and our French libertine (sexually frank, culturally snobbish, unemployed) would learn to live together in tolerant harmony....

Mexico’s Hubertus Von Hohenlohe is hoping a spicy mariachi-themed ski suit will help him race to victory. And no, that name doesn’t sound Spanish because Hohenlohe is of German descent (but was born in Mexico). The 55-year-old grew up skiing in Austria, and in the mid-1980s he returned to the country of his birthplace to develop its skiing program. You know, if he could place well enough, there’s a chance that Steve Martin or Martin Short could join the team in 2018....

Given how slow the weapons in the LMG category are, it is easy to understand why some Call of Duty: Vanguard players have been avoiding the class. However, one weapon in particular holds up when compared to weapons from the more popular categories: the DP27. With a memorable appearance, excellent mobility, and good damage, the weapon will likely make an impact on any players that give it a chance....

The Overwatch Clueless Gamer segment immediately turns on the humor, beginning with Conan perched on top of an Iron Throne toilet, and Peter and Lena either side of him. All three almost immediately admit that gaming isn’t their strong suit, but they’re willing to give Overwatch’s frantic first-person shooter gameplay a shot anyway. That pretty much sets the tone for the rest of the segment, as it quickly becomes less about playing the game, and more about getting up to some laugh-worthy shenanigans, including making fun of a number of Overwatch’s cartoony characters....

MLS Team of the Playoffs Unlike those of us who are ready to move on from a year that brought too many deaths and too much political turmoil, CONCACAF executives will look fondly upon this past year - with the relative quiet in administration and the financial gains brought in by the Copa America Centenario. But first, it had to approve the confederation’s audited financial statements from 2015.
