The person on the other end had a very southern, sweet voice and she would realize that I wasn’t who she was looking for, so she would hang up. I didn’t even get as far as saying who I was at first, she would just say sorry and hang up. I could tell she was really sweet, so after a few calls over the next week I finally said: “Hey, if you’re going to keep calling me, why not tell me your name, where you’re from and who are you looking for?...

Following Kyiv’s counteroffensive, Putin has resorted to strong-arming his countrymen into joining a fight that Russians may have been happy to view through the prism of Kremlin-backed TV but may be more reluctant to join in the flesh. One expert told Newsweek that Putin’s partial mobilization could be his “political undoing,” while another said it was “highly unlikely” that the call-up of up to 300,000 reservists would make any immediate difference to Russia’s fighting power....

Overall very little has changed between the games and it’s not until the fifth level that Alien Breed 3: Descent picks up and comes into its own. For those who were enjoying the story, this final chapter will be a welcome addition. For more casual players though, there is not a lot to work with. Conrad is a very basic character with only a little back history, beyond how he loves to blow things up or shoot aliens....

The disconnect between screenshots and trailers released for Aliens: Colonial Marines — which looked moody and atmospheric — and the final product appeared to be a byproduct of platform limitations, with a new theory suggesting the Wii U corrects all that. As it turns out, though, the Wii U version might be the worst of them all. That’s according to an unnamed QA tester that worked on the game, who took to Reddit to say that the Wii U version of Colonial Marines is ostensibly the same game, only with “frame rate issues, texture loading, and horrendously misguided minigames thrown in....

Pulis’ West Brom visit the Etihad Stadium on Tuesday, where victory will all but secure a place in the top four for Guardiola’s men. Champions League qualification is all City have left to play for at the end of an uneven first season in charge for the former Barcelona and Bayern Munich boss, who will finish a campaign without a trophy for the first time in his career. The departure of long-serving City right-back Pablo Zabaleta was confirmed over the weekend and, with a close-season of upheaval among his playing staff expected, Pulis insists Guardiola must be allowed to shape the squad to his needs....

Williams thought back to others while arguing in her 6-2, 6-4 loss to Naomi Osaka on Saturday, saying on court at one point: “This is not fair. This has happened to me too many times.” When a reporter asked Williams whether her mind had flashed back to her infamous tirade over a foot fault in the final at Flushing Meadows nine years ago, she replied: “I think it’s just instantly, just like, ‘Oh, gosh, I don’t want to go back to 2004....

Andor charts the life of Cassian Andor (Diego Luna) five years before the events of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, and it shows how the character came to be the rebel captain fans were first introduced to in the 2016 film.

It stands out from its predecessors on the streaming platform because, instead of relying on fan service and nostalgia, it focuses on broadening the scope of the universe fans know and love....
