The suspect, a Hispanic man, drove off in a white Toyota, police said, sparking a manhunt. Houston Police Department (HPD) Chief Troy Finner said it was likely an assault-type weapon had been used in the shooting. “Message to the suspect, the best thing you can do is turn yourself in peacefully,” Finner said....

That’s because the Houston Texans without Deshaun Watson, DeAndre Hopkins and JJ Watt are just a bland team on paper. Even Sam Darnold coming to the Carolina Panthers wasn’t a huge deal after his 2020 campaign, and the defense can’t seem to reach their potential. But fast forward two weeks, and this Thursday Night Football game in Week 3 suddenly has some electricity to it. The Houston Texans are atop the AFC South at 1-1, thanks to Tyrod Taylor showing he can still play in the NFL....

At first glance, it would not be unreasonable for someone to liken H1Z1 to a title like DayZ. From the dreary and desolate zombie-infested landscape to its harsh survival requirements, it has all the trappings of another genre cash-in. Upon taking a closer look though, Sony Online Entertainment’s entry has the potential and passion behind it to be something far more than that. The central idea for H1Z1 that the developer focused on was that of a truly living world where players should be encouraged for thinking laterally....

This time, in Mafia: Definitive Edition, the fully orchestrated and remade soundtrack sets the tone of Mafia in an interesting way. In an interview with Game Rant, composer Jesse Harlin explained how the sound of Mafia: Definitive Edition spawned not from a place of traditional film or game orchestration, but one of grace. Rather than compose a score punctuated solely by musical elements of melancholy and dread, Harlin determined Mafia’s new sound from a two-bar section in one song, of which expands throughout the whole soundtrack....

Unfortunately, while Biden has correctly identified one of the major lessons for the West about this war, his solution not only misses the mark but reveals how much worse the situation is thanks to Biden’s own actions. American foreign policy over the past 100 years has consistently led to one obvious conclusion: Energy independence is critical to the national security and interest of the United States. Finding yourself at the whims of energy producers has forced the U....

The warning signs of arthritis include joint pain, stiffness, swelling, difficulty moving a joint through its normal range of motion, redness, and warmth....

Revealed during the 2022 Game Awards, this Nintendo Switch exclusive came as a shock to many. Besides the obvious surface level elements of having a completely distinct art style and focusing on a young Bayonetta and her doll Cheshire, Bayonetta Origins is thoroughly set apart. For one, this is an isometric action-adventure title with de-emphasized combat instead of a third-person hack-and-slash game. Even more surprising was the fact that this game would release five months after Bayonetta 3’s launch, and three months after its own reveal....

Treyarch’s Call of Duty seems to have learned and iterated on a lot of what 2019’s Modern Warfare pioneered. As Call of Duty moves on to an interconnected development platform, it’s clear that Modern Warfare’s innovations have helped inspire Black Ops Cold War’s concepts and mechanics in numerous ways. Whether it’s the return of singleplayer from its lack thereof in Black Ops 4, or the more traditional multiplayer customization instead of the “Pick 10” systems from before, it’s clear Black Ops Cold War borrows a lot from Modern Warfare....

Rooms The 43 rooms and nine suites range from about $570 to $3,600 a night.
