The Uncharted series is developer Naughty Dog’s bread and butter. While they have had tremendous success with many of their other titles, Uncharted remains their flagship series, and for good reason. It’s not only critically acclaimed, but also incredible lucrative; the last chapter in the series sold 3.8 million copies on the first day. Money, however, never seems to be Naughty Dog’s strongest motivator. The company is meticulous with their games, taking special care to release a product that feels closest to their high standards of perfection....

Record: 11-4 overall; 4-4 UFC Division: Middleweight Team: The MMA Lab Remember a couple months back, when Jack Hermansson fought David Branch in the co-main event of that show in Philly where Justin Gaethje went all Justin Gaethje on Edson Barboza and he choked him out in under a minute? It became the launch point for the whole ‘Maybe Jack Hermansson is a contender?’ conversation that has now morphed into a statement of fact now that he added a win over “Jacare” Souza on short notice?...

Primary Extranodal Lymphoma When lymphoma is believed to have originated outside the lymph nodes, it’s called extranodal lymphoma, or more precisely, primary extranodal lymphoma. At times, it can be difficult to pinpoint where in the body a lymphoma began. In these cases, doctors may follow a more approximate definition: If the lymphoma at one time had its major tumor mass—its most obvious bulk—in an extranodal site, then it may be considered an extranodal lymphoma....
Klopp made seven changes from the side that had drawn 1-1 in Germany, giving first Premier League starts to youngsters Kevin Stewart and Sheyi Ojo. Ojo set up the second goal for Daniel Sturridge with a fine cross and when he was substituted at halftime, replacement Divock Origi scored twice. Earlier Alberto Moreno had put the home side in front before Bojan Krkic equalised. The victory sent Liverpool above Stoke into eighth position, one point ahead of them but nine short of the Champions League places....

Back in 2016, a fan reached out to Toby Fox following the tremendous success that Undertale received and asked if they could make a prequel game.

However, according to the BLS, furloughed workers should be classified as “unemployed on temporary layoff.” A number of these workers were instead mistakenly classified as “employed but not at work.” Though some people classified as “unemployed on temporary layoff” were correctly identified, the BLS estimates that about 4....

The vote on Friday in Geneva authorizes the creation of a fact-finding mission, which tasked with documenting abuses “with a view to ensuring full accountability for perpetrators and justice for victims.” The resolution was presented by the Lima Group, a group of Latin American and European countries, some of which are shouldering the burden of Venezuelan refugees.
