With the 2022 primary season coming to a close, 15 members of Congress have lost their seats so far this year, representing the highest degree of turnover since the Obama administration, when the Tea Party revolution and an upswing in progressive activism led to 13 incumbents losing their primaries. Though the defeats of New York Democratic Representatives Mondaire Jones and Carolyn Maloney in late August were the races that pushed the number into record-setting territory, the brunt of losses in Congress have been felt among Republican incumbents, several of whom supported the impeachment of former President Donald Trump over his role in the January 6, 2021, riot at the U....

How Fiddlesticks Became Horrific Discussions about who the new Fiddlesticks was going to be started briefly before the champion rework vote was cast in May of 2019. Leading the game design team was Blake Smith, who helped design other champions like Ornn, Sylas and Ivern. Smith and his band of designers wanted the new Fiddlesticks’ kit to center around its ultimate Crowstorm, which has the monster channel for a few seconds before appearing with an aura of damage around it....

There was evidence that he had hired a private investigator, Anthony Pellicano, to illegally wiretap two people around the year 2000. At first, McTiernan claimed that he had met Pellicano, but had only very limited interactions with him. Later, McTiernan was presented with a recording of himself hiring Pellicano. He claimed that he only wanted to wiretap Charles Roven, as he was the producer of the film that McTiernan was working on at the time, a sci-fi thriller called Rollerball....

At the time I was in a serious relationship with a man who, like me, is originally from India. We had been introduced to each other by our parents in the hope that we would eventually marry. He was living on the West Coast at the time, while I, having just graduated from college, was living at my parents’ home in Greenville, S.C. But he and I communicated constantly, through e-mail, instant messages and by phone—running up huge cell phone bills....

The two head coaches’ teams take each other on in a big NFC clash in Week 3. As always, with the two coaches linked together, the spotlight will shine on Shanahan and LaFleur. Is there still tension lingering between Shanahan and LaFleur? The offseason tension kicked off because Aaron Rodgers wanted to leave the Green Bay Packers. The legendary quarterback is a born-and-raised 49ers fan. The team opted not to draft him in 2005, and many pundits have constantly linked the 49ers and Rodgers together....

Now that “The Last Dance” is set to premiere Sunday night on ESPN, it’s clear one pitch finally piqued Jordan’s interest. So what changed his mind?

Four years ago, Fabio Capello’s England went to Cardiff for what looked like an awkward European Championship qualifier against a Wales side showing signs of improvement under Gary Speed. They went 2-0 up inside quarter of an hour, thanks to a Frank Lampard penalty and a goal from Darren Bent and never really looked threatened. The key figure was Ashley Young, surprisingly used at the tip of a midfield diamond, and it seemed then that the Aston Villa forward would be the creative hub of England for years to come....

The patches of skin associated with Bowen’s disease are easily mistaken for other skin conditions like psoriasis and eczema, so it’s essential to get a diagnosis from a doctor. Early intervention is critical in preventing the condition from progressing into a more invasive form of skin cancer called squamous cell skin cancer.

In particular, all of Destiny 2’s many guns make different sounds in various ways, and all these sonic elements make every weapon unique and distinguishable when using it.

It works incredibly well in some areas, but misses the mark in others....

With all of its time jumps and focus primarily on the Targaryen family, House of the Dragon hasn’t taken as much time to develop the show’s other characters, making their decisions and motivations seem murky at best. Here are some of the characters and relationships that deserved more exploration and depth. RELATED: House Of The Dragon: 7 Most Charismatic Characters After making such a great first impression in the pilot episode, the appearance of Lord Corlys Velaryon (aka the Sea Snake) has been inconsistently back and forth in this series....

Alicent may seem like just another sweet and elegant woman, but like her father and House Hightower, there is more to her than meets the eye. Alicent is written as vengeful, petty, and overly protective of her children. It’s clear that House of the Dragon wants to set her up as the show’s Cersei figure, but does it succeed at doing that?
