The Sunday Million Anniversary Take 2 1st edition of Sunday Million Anniversary back in February was a disaster as PokerStars ended up paying a record $1.2m in overlays. The tournament failed to gather the requisite 50,000 entries to cover the guarantee. This time, Stars made sure there were no loose ends. Right from unlimited satellites, and promotions to incentives, they left no stone unturned. They capitalized on late registrations. PokerStars held a FreeRoll where randomly selected 9 players contended for a $30,000 Platinum Pass to the 2019 No-Limit Hold’em Championship....

With no early games scheduled today, we have all 30 MLB teams in action tonight during a big 15-game slate. Keep in mind, the two games that have a threat of postponement based on the early morning forecasts are the Pirates-Cubs at Wrigley Field and Yankees-Royals at Kauffman Stadium. The Cubs game is probably the biggest threat, but I’d keep an eye on both just to be safe. MORE: Fantasy Football Draft Guide | Fantasy football cheat sheet...

The most obvious stack of the day is in Motown, where the Tigers will face lefty Jon Niese. Expect to see a lot of Detroit players in early-slate cash games. A Marlins stack against Steven Matz is better suited for FanDuel and DraftKings GPP tournaments since only Giancarlo Stanton is an obvious play. If you’re looking for an even more under-the-radar stacking opportunity, try some struggling Twins players against Jose Quintana....

Patch 1.3 comes with a huge list of changes. Some of the more notable touch-ups include a zoomed out minimap while driving, 10 extra autosave slots, the ability to bulk-upgrade cfating components, and a bunch of balance changes to weapons and enemy AI. Among the lengthy set of bug fixes for the game are many quest-specific alterations that will stop a number of soft-locks and progression issues. There are, however, many issues still apparent in the game, with Cyberpunk’s cities still full of clones, and bugs aplenty across the sprawling Night City....

More recently, with the release of Cyberpunk 2077 and its accompanying anime adaptation Cyberpunk Edgerunners, Otomo’s vision of Neo-Tokyo has indirectly informed yet another urban sphere in the form of the franchise’s setting — Night City. A massive, densely populated metropolis riddled with crime, excess, corporate hegemony, technological advancement, and a uniquely dystopian atmosphere, Night City bears a number of subtle yet hard to miss nods towards some of its predecessors, and Neo-Tokyo in particular....

Prague - Czech Republic defender Theodor Gebre Selassie has left Czech champions Slovan Liberec to join Werder Bremen, the German club announced Friday. The Czech-born right-back, whose father is Ethiopian, played all four games for the Czech Republic at Euro 2012, where they lost 0-1 to Portugal in Thursday’s quarter-final. Gebre Selassie, 25, signed a four-year contract at Werder after turning down several other clubs, the club said. “We are pleased that we were able to convince Theodore to choose Werder Bremen despite plenty other offers,” coach Klaus Allofs was quoted as saying....

ESPN reports the 32-year-old Jets left tackle is calling it quits after 10 seasons despite being completely healthy. MORE: NFL players who retired young | Most shocking NFL retirements ever The reason why doesn’t appear to be strictly health concerns like we’ve seen with some other players. According to ESPN, he just felt like he couldn’t play up to what he felt was needed to continue. Ferguson did, however, write a first-person piece for Sports Illustrated in December after watching “Concussion” and reading the book on which it was based....

The DIR-605L’s default IP address is 192.168.0.1; this address accesses the router’s administration screens. The DIR-605L Default Password Doesn’t Work Change the DIR-605L default password to something complex and hard to guess, because leaving it blank isn’t a good security practice. If you don’t know the password, reset the router to its factory default settings—the username and password will be restored to their defaults. Here’s how to perform a reset:...

The Metro authority’s safety commission ordered overnight that the entire 7000-series line of trains—comprising 748 cars, or about 60 percent of the fleet—should be pulled. Jennifer Homendy, chair of the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB), told reporters Monday that a problem with the line had been identified, the AP said. The trains’ wheels were positioned too wide on the axles and could cause the vehicle to slip off the tracks....

But wait, you ask, what about all of those back-slapping, fawning headlines about legislative minutiae around cannabis legalization, such as Schumer’s breathless announcement that he has yet again introduced cannabis legislation to the Senate that is absolutely in no uncertain terms doomed to fail. No one should be patting Schumer on the back for this performative action. And a question, dear reader, do you know what happens next? How long does it take for said Senate bill to go to the floor where it is likely to fail in a vote?...

The video, shared on TikTok earlier in January by the dog’s owner, under the username Gemcheyne, shows the miniature dachshund puppy wearing a tiny wool sock to go on a walk instead of a harness because she’s too small for it and there’s no right size for her. The heartwarming clip comes with a caption that says: “When you’re too smol for a harness so a sock has to do....

As of Sunday, Winneconne’s Nate Carroll completed his 1,500,231st push-up within the span of twelve months, says The Wisconsin State Journal. Averaging 4,100 push-ups per day—and occasionally reaching a whopping 7,000 in one day—Carroll is using the challenge to fundraise for the Tunnels to Towers Foundation, an organization that offers housing and mortgage assistance to the families of officers and firefighters who are killed in the line of duty....

With a 22-year-old son and 26-year-old daughter, the dad explained that his daughter, having recently purchased a house, was facing unexpected costs and a depleted bank account, and so the parents helped her with the large sum for Christmas. In the post, user u/JollyOldSaintNicki asked: “AITA [Am I the a******] for giving my daughter a ‘better’ present than my son?” He explained: “For Christmas we gave her $4,000. Our son we gave a few different gifts totaling somewhere around $800....

In a viral Reddit post published on r/AmITheA**hole, Redditor u/PaintLicker_2022 (otherwise referred to as the original poster, or OP) said he initially offered to pay for all damages but was taken aback by just how how much money a local church demanded he fork over. Titled, “[Am I the a**hole] for questioning the damage bill my daughter caused to a church?” the post has received more than 4,000 upvotes and 2,000 comments in the last day....

On May 8 when California, the most populous U.S. state, began easing lockdown measures, the state reported around 1,600 new cases. A month since the reopening, the state recorded around 3,200 new cases on June 8, according to Johns Hopkins University. Texas, the country’s second most populous state, began the first phase of its reopening on May 1, which saw 965 new cases on the day of the reopening. On several occasions in June, the daily case count nearly doubled the figure reported on May 1....
