After successive tap-in birdies at 15 and 16, Thompson needed to make a much longer effort at the 18th to pick up the two shots she required to snatch the lead outright at the Mission Hills Country Club in Rancho Mirage, California. The 21-year-old American, winner of the title in 2014, successfully drained the putt to finish with a three-under-par 69 and 54-hole total of 10-under 206 at the first major of the LPGA season....

If there’s one thing Game of Thrones fans always loved doing was taking sides, so it’s really no surprise to see that 11-year-old tradition live on in House of the Dragon.

In reality, it is likely only the tip of the iceberg. Because what has become crystal clear already in the nascent days of McCarthy and Republican rule is that Republicans have zero interest in governing.

Researchers used radio waves like those used in Wi-Fi to measure heart and breathing rate signals, which could determine how a person is feeling.

According to BioWare, Elysian Chests will be added to the end of all three Anthem Strongholds. They’re intended to be that extra reward that pushes Anthem players to finish every Stronghold rather than jumping out after claiming the first two chests. These Elysian Caches will reward a single vanity item or Masterwork crafting materials for every single player in the Stronghold. Players won’t get duplicate vanity items, plus every item is exclusive to Elysian Chests and won’t ever be available in Anthem’s store....
HDR, or High Dynamic Range, is when a TV or computer display shows a bigger range from dark to light, with blacker blacks and whiter whites, and an expanded range of colors. If you watch HDR-enabled movies, then you get to see this extended range. That’s cool and all, but what if you’re viewing a thumbnail of an HDR clip on a non HDR display?
