Strasburg tossed seven scoreless innings with 12 strikeouts to lead the Nationals to a 5-0 road victory in game four of the National League Division Series on Wednesday. A steady downpour lined Chicago’s grey skies on Tuesday, forcing game four of the NLDS to move to Wednesday.

Sourced via the Baldur’s Gate 3 Steam page, the upcoming RPG’s minimum PC requirements aren’t too severe. The CPU requirement is for an Intel Core i5-4690 or an AMD FX 4350. These are CPUs from 2013 and 2012 respectively. As for GPUs, the Nvidia GTX 780 and AMD Radeon R9 280X are minimum requirements, both having been released in 2013. In other words, so long as someone’s PC is newer than or has upgraded since 2013 then it should run Baldur’s Gate 3....

Baldur’s Gate 3 has been out in early access since October 6, 2020, receiving some criticism for being made available initially with very little for fans to interact with, especially when it comes to the story.

Now, more than five and a half decades later, the mystery kidnapping may have been solved, after Paul—now middle-aged and living under a different name—was tracked down to rural Michigan, according to a U.S. news channel.

According to PWInsider, via Cageside Seats, Daniel Bryan is not a member of WWE’s roster....

This may seem like an alarming sign, but it’s not because Wyatt has already feuded with every top babyface present in the WWE today. CM Punk, Daniel Bryan, Chris Jericho, The Shield and John Cena have all had run-ins with Wyatt. He’s long overdue for some kind of layoff. Wyatt was recently matched with Big Show because WWE’s creative department doesn’t have major plans for either competitor.

Kolodziejek worked first at Auschwitz, carting rubber solvents for I.G. Farben’s war effort, then at Mauthausen, building Messerschmitt planes. He spent the entire war in the camps. His untold experience is a reminder of the secret behind the thousand-year Reich’s 12-year reign. Nazi Europe was a kind of pyramid scheme: conquer a country, then enslave its able-bodied citizens to empower the machine to conquer more. And under fascism the corporations that built this empire thrived on low overhead, thanks to millions of slave laborers like Kolodziejek....

Iron is a vital nutrient, and the high levels contained in meat-rich Western diets have long been presumed safe. But Sullivan has identified several trends suggesting that the dangers of “normal” iron levels may dwarf those of high cholesterol. For example, women’s cholesterol levels change little after menopause, yet their iron levels rise sharply, and so do their heart-attack rates. Experts have traditionally blamed hormonal changes for the sudden surge in cardiovascular illness....

Thousands of other Sunnis like Kamal have been cleared out of the western half of Baghdad, which they once dominated, in recent months. The surge of U.S. troops—meant in part to halt the sectarian cleansing of the Iraqi capital—has hardly stemmed the problem.

According to the Iraqi Red Crescent, the number of internally displaced persons (IDPs) has more than doubled to 1....

Bakayoko’s cryptic series of tweets Goal understands that the Monaco midfielder traveled to London on Thursday and passed his medical with the Blues a day later, despite lingering concerns over his knee. He was set to sign a contract later Friday, having spent the day at the club’s training ground in Cobham and speaking with Antonio Conte. However, the move was complicated by several factors, with Monaco vice president Vadim Vasilyev asking for a higher fee at the last minute and Bakayoko having signed several mandates with mulitple agents or intermediaries, making it difficult to identify the parties who needed to be paid and slowing down the process of finalizing the deal....
