When creator Notch sold rights to the game to Microsoft last year for $2....

The report, which analyzed Minneapolis police records dating back roughly five years, also found that officers’ use of the disarming restraint tactic caused subjects to lose consciousness in 44 of those instances. Data showed that 60 percent of individuals restrained by police using this method were black, 30 percent were white, and the remainder were Native Americans, NBC News said in its evaluation. The analysis was released as protests against police violence surged in dozens of United States cities and across the world....

The latest figures, published by Minnesota’s Department of Health, come amid escalating demonstrations, in local cities and across the country, to protest the death of George Floyd. He died in Minneapolis on Monday after former police officer Derek Chauvin knelt on his neck for more than eight minutes.

Captain Misbah and veteran batsman Younis fittingly retired from international cricket on the back of Pakistan’s first Test series triumph in the Caribbean following a gripping final day at Windsor Park. Yasir was unsurprisingly the Windies’ tormentor in chief, taking 5-92, and debutant Hasan Ali finished with figures of 3-33 as the home side were finally dismissed for 202 when the prolific leg-spinner removed Shannon Gabriel in the second last over of day five....

Despite ODI series wins in India and South Africa and an Asia Cup title under his belt, Misbah was just an average ODI captain. Some say that he didn’t have the right resources and a captain is just as good as his team; I argue that men like Imran Khan and Shahid Afridi inspired average teams to do great things. Misbah just could not. Misbah has won more ODIs as captain than he has lost, but his Win % is far less than most of Pakistan’s ODI captains....

The image of an absolutely devastated Misbah left on his knees while his Indian counterpart MS Dhoni celebrated ecstatically has gone on to become one of the most iconic ones in cricket history and Misbah has finally revealed the thoughts that were going through his mind during that final over.

Ashes was a 1-year-old indoor cat when she went missing from her Chesterville, Maine, home in August 2015. Owner Denise Cilley at first assumed that the Longwood, Florida, veterinarian who contacted her about a missing cat on January 22 had called the wrong phone number, according to an interview published Thursday by Patch. Cilley was shocked when the vet accurately described the recovered cat as a spayed gray tabby and informed her that the identification had been made by scanning a microchip implanted by the animal shelter that Ashes had been adopted from as a kitten....

Like most of you, I would have watched that game on television. I have covered 32 NCAA Tournaments, starting in 1988, but I have watched the first round on TV almost as often as I have been in the arena. There are varying reasons why I so often have been away from the arena on opening day: travel costs when I was in the newspaper business, joining the old Sporting News Radio crew from 2001-08 to do the all-encompassing programs we called “Tournament Central” and, last year, using the occasion to visit Sporting News headquarters in Charlotte to spend some time around co-workers I rarely see....

The ad, currently running in McConnell’s home state, features a group of coal miners living with black lung disease.

Although Starc’s injury isn’t much to be worried about, Cricket Australia (CA) want him rested because of the Ashes which is set to commence on 8 July 2015.

Romney, who represents Utah, made the comment to CNN on Tuesday while also criticizing Democrats for expressing “outrage” at the changes the Senate’s GOP majority leader, Mitch McConnell, had made to the rules governing the trial. Democrats had strongly criticized some of the changes, which were notably different from those used in President Bill Clinton’s impeachment trial. “The changes are pretty modest, and I don’t think are significant in any dramatic way,” Romney said in brief comments to CNN senior congressional correspondent Manu Raju....
