It appeared that there was a possibility that Rick Hendrick might not have a Cup ride available in 2016, and the 19-year-old Elliott wondered about his future. He had just won the Nationwide (now Xfinity) Series title in 2014 and, after trying to defend his title in 2015, the next logical step was a Cup ride. Elliott tried not to worry about it. “I never asked any questions about it,” Elliott said....
The Tesla CEO’s deal to acquire the company, which closed last week following a tumultuous few months of anticipation, has been praised by right-wing figures who have accused the platform of exercising a bias against conservatives. Musk, 51, immediately made big changes behind the scenes by firing several top executives at the social media company, including CEO Parag Agrawal and head of legal Vijaya Gadde—the latter of whom was publicly criticized by the South African-born billionaire....
During an impromptu performance at a Cannes restaurant, John sang a portion of the modernized version of his 1971 hit, Tiny Dancer, that he recorded with Spears. Spears teamed up with John to record Hold Me Closer, a reworking of the singing legend’s iconic hit. Perched behind the DJ at the La Guerite restaurant in the south of France, John delighted fans who cheered wildly when the opening refrains of the well-known song started....
The video, posted by Carl Kemp to YouTube, shows a wolverine walking across a tarmac road through the park, which is surrounded by snow-covered hills and trees. The footage offers a rare glimpse of the wolverine, which is an extremely uncommon sight in Yellowstone. The latest population estimate of wolverines in Yellowstone took place between 2006 and 2009. It showed there were seven wolverines in the park—five females and two males....
Ryan: The Dodgers, as you know, recently committed $215 million over the next seven years to Clayton Kershaw, the still-young lefthander who is the best pitcher in baseball. Today, I’m committing the first overall pick in SN’s draft of National League West players to Kershaw. That’s pretty much the same thing, right? At least, same ballpark? No? Oh well. I’ve spent the past half-hour sitting in this coffee shop trying to talk myself into selecting a position player, a guy who should play at least 140 games instead of one who will play just 33, with the top pick....
Two-time All-Star Embiid went 0-for-11 and had four turnovers in Philadelphia’s 101-96 loss to the Raptors, who won a Game 7 against the Sixers in the playoffs last year en route to winning their first championship. Philadelphia went 2-1 up in that series and Embiid celebrated with an airplane celebration, which Raptors fans mimicked during his rough game on Monday. Furthermore, Raptors fan and Grammy-winning rapper Drake appeared to mock Embiid too by clapping at him from courtside....
Embiid had 25 points and 12 rebounds, and Simmons added 20 points, 14 rebounds and 11 assists in Philadelphia’s 106-100 victory over the Dallas Mavericks on Saturday night. Embiid hit two key free throws late for Philadelphia, which was without Butler for the second straight game due to an upper respiratory infection. The four-time All-Star wasn’t around to address a published report that said he recently challenged coach Brett Brown in a disrespectful way about his role in the offense....
The company in question is none other than EA, who has elected to remain distant from the showcase in hopes of keeping its employees out of contact with the illness. Announced in a statement sent to GameSpot, the major video game company stated: “Having followed the global situation with coronavirus and with the recent escalation of cases in new regions, we have decided to take additional steps to protect the well-being of our employees including the restriction of all non-essential travel....
There are, however, some concerns within the video game community that Star Wars Battlefront could suffer from a lacklustre launch. After all, publisher EA has previously had issues with titles upon release - particularly those that have relied heavily on multiplayer or online connectivity. Infamously, 2013’s Sim City suffered from severe problems upon release, with blame laid heavily at the feet of controversial DRM. Meanwhile, DICE’s Battlefield 4 also disappointed players on launch, with numerous bugs and crashes....
Obviously, the gamer tendency is to like things that are free over things that they have to pay for - and as a substantial, as well as complimentary, social network within a first person shooter that tracks stats, friends, and other information, that is really good. Before you get up in arms about the comparison between the two networks, it’s important to remember that Call of Duty Elite will have a free version as well as the really fancy one you pay for....
The photo was posted in Reddit’s “Kids Are F**king Stupid” forum by u/SafetyCoat, who wrote: “Friend works at an elementary school. They give this paper to problematic students.” It has amassed over 78,000 upvotes, and many commenters compared it to the old “Santa trick.” You can view the full post here. The note purports to come from “YouTube” and threatens to have kids’ YouTube accounts deleted if they don’t listen to their teachers....
Iowans will cast their ballot for their preferred Democratic presidential nominee on Monday, February 3. According to a new batch of polls, Warren is steadily in third or fourth place behind competitors Joe Biden, Bernie Sanders and Pete Buttigieg. But the top tier candidates are all so closely bunched together that it’s still anyone’s race. The most recent Monmouth University poll of likely Iowa caucusgoers showed Biden in the lead with 23 percent support followed by Sanders with 21 percent and Buttigieg with 16 percent support....
Bloomberg would pay $3.079 billion if Warren’s tax were enacted next year, according to the Calculator for Billionaires found on Warren’s website. Bloomberg’s net worth is listed as $52 billion. “Don’t worry too much about Mike Bloomberg,” says the website. “If history is any guide, if billionaires do nothing other than invest their wealth in the stock market, it’s likely that their wealth will continue to grow.” While Bloomberg has not officially entered the presidential race, reports indicate that the former mayor of New York is preparing to file for the Alabama primary....
Musk’s most recent compliments to the FromSoftware RPG wouldn’t be the first time he has taken to social media to talk about Elden Ring. A tweet from Musk earlier this month shared the build he has been using for his playthrough of the game, speccing into Dexterity and Intelligence and swapping between a staff, rapier, and claws for his main weapon of choice. While some fans have been critical of Musk’s choice of equipment and particularly his equip load, the business mogul has clearly become infatuated with the game and recently took to Twitter once again to compliment the game....
The Tesla CEO posted the picture late on Sunday, which he says was taken in November 2021. Fans commented on how similar the pair look, drawing attention to a picture of Musk as a baby.

It was revealed recently that Musk has fathered a set of twins with Shivon Zilis, the director of operations and special projects at Neuralink, a company he owns....

Available in 10-ounce and 14-ounce sizes and an array of colors, the Ember Mug 2 is $99.95 for the 10-ounce model and $129.95 for the 14-ounce size.

MLS Talking Points: Timbers on the brink Embolo broke his ankle during his side’s 1-1 draw at Augsburg on Saturday after a challenge by Konstantinos Stafylidis, who received a yellow card for the foul and later apologized to the Switzerland international via a post on Instagram. Initial reports suggested the 19-year-old was likely to miss the rest of 2016, but surgery on his fractured ankle revealed he had also ruptured his syndesmosis and medial collateral ligament....
Emery was confirmed as Arsene Wenger’s replacement at the Emirates Stadium on Wednesday, signing a three-year deal. Gazidis, head of football relations Raul Sanllehi and head of recruitment Sven Mislintat all agreed on the appointment of the Spaniard, with Mikel Arteta among those previously linked with the post. “All the way going through the process, Raul and I and Sven spoke to each other as little as possible because we didn’t want to pollute each other’s viewpoints from the discussions we had had,” Gazidis told UK newspapers....
The Premier League side are yet to make any additions this month despite being linked to numerous players, including Inter attacker Ivan Perisic. But Emery, whose team host Cardiff City on Tuesday, said it would be a different situation ahead of next campaign. “When we have the possibility to buy different players with big quality to help us with their performance, we can do that,” he told UK newspapers....
