Man City miles from being a Guardiola team The Atletico goalkeeper produced a fine display in Wednesday’s goalless draw at the Vicente Calderon as last season’s runners-up progressed 4-2 on aggregate. Oblak made a stunning triple-save in the second half to thwart Julian Brandt and Kevin Volland and help Atletico book their spot in the quarter-finals of the competition for a fourth consecutive season. And his efforts drew praise from the opposition, Korkut telling reporters: “Congratulations to Atletico and Oblak....

The world’s top-ranked tennis player smashed his racket and ripped his shirt during a 6-4, 6-4 loss to Spain’s Roberto Bautista Agut. It wasn’t pretty. Djokovic grabbed a towel and swept away his racket splinters after he lost the first set, but the damage (literally and figuratively) was done. He was unable to rally in the second set, putting Bautista Agut in the final match. The shirt ripping came later, when he hit a forehand into the net....

It shows Michael bursting into tears after a Santa at the mall told him he wouldn’t bring the youngster the toy gun he wanted. “No guns,” the Santa told the boy. “No, not even a Nerf gun.

Lembo’s dissertation, given at Pontifical Gregorian University, focused on nine nuns victimized by priests in five sub-Saharan countries and the relational elements therein. Her conclusion—that decades-old entrenchments of power imbalances between the nuns and priests made consent impossible, as it often involved priests trading money with impoverished sisters in exchange for sex after a years-long process of grooming—relationships that, Lembo said, the nuns felt trapped into and couldn’t escape....

Ivan Cavaleiro put Wolves ahead in the 13th minute as he turned in Raul Jimenez’s low cross, and for long stretches of the match they looked good value for the lead. Rui Patricio in the Wolves goal did not have a huge amount to do, though he was helpless to deny Henrikh Mkhitaryan’s curling late equaliser. Nevertheless, Wolves continued to look a threat even after the leveller and struck the crossbar through Morgan Gibbs-White, while Adama Traore was denied by Bernd Leno....

The newly released document “8 nm Ampere (GA102)” was discovered by hardware site Videocardz, detailing the hardware and performance differences between Nvidia’s Turing and Ampere based cards.

Steve Burke, editor in chief of Gamer’s Nexus, after discussing with a number of manufacturers the state of the industry and release dates for the Nvidia graphics card, concluded that “Intel really screwed up.” It seems the timeline Intel has plotted for the 11th generation of Intel processors needs work, in particular, the one for the Rocket Lake S chip, which will have PCIe 4.0 compatibility but will not be released in time to catch early adopters of the 3080....

Al fin y al cabo, no todo el mundo puede permitirse un PC gaming con RTX 3080 para ejecutar los mejores juegos de PC, e incluso si pueden, es más difícil que nunca hacerse con una GPU ahora mismo sin gastar mucho más que el precio de venta al público.

The Black Stars, once again, fell short of the continental diadem following a 2-0 defeat to Cameroon in the semi-finals, thus extending the team’s 35-year trophy drought for at least two more years. The quest to win bronze to provide some form of appeasement also ended in flames by a 1-0 reversal to Burkina Faso in the third-place playoff. “It’s uncalled for because I don’t think we voted President Nyantakyi into office to win Afcon for us; that is not the parameter we set for him,” Osei said, as reported by StarrSportsGh....
