“The economy is always paramount, very important to all constituents,” said Gene Hall, a Democratic member of the Jefferson County’s elected Board of County Commissioners. Beyond paying their rent or mortgages and putting food on the table, the county’s voters want whomever is elected president to “carry out the prescribed duties of the office in a fair and equitable manner and ensure that their decisions are compatible with the United States Constitution,” Hall told Newsweek....

In September, the cities of Cagliari, Sassari and Selargius plan to begin laying the pollution-eating bricks in their sidewalks and plazas. The bricks cost €19 per square meter, a 46 percent premium over conventional brick at €13. That’s the price of fresh air.

Just a few weeks ago, Unreal Engine 5 revealed a PS5 tech demo showing what the engine was capable of on the new hardware. Visually, it was incredibly impressive, with beautifully detailed environments and a host of impressive lighting effects. However, to take full advantage of that new power afforded by the PS5’s SSD, parts of the Unreal Engine had to be re-written entirely.

The Epic Games Store free games for this week are Godfall: Challenger Edition and Prison Architect. Godfall: Challenger Edition is a new version of Godfall that strips out the base game story content to focus exclusively on the endgame. Godfall: Challenger Edition lets players reach max level automatically and doesn’t include the Fire & Darkness expansion either, which has proven controversial. Prison Architect, meanwhile, is a well-received construction game where players build and manage a prison....

Epic Games Store users were suprised earlier this week with the addition of Tiny Tina’s Assault on Dragon Keep as a free Epic Games Store game, and they have until Tuesday, November 16 at 10:00am CT to claim it. Meanwhile, Rogue Company Season 4 Epic Pack is free until Thursday, November 18 at 10:00am CT, at which point it will be replaced by three free games. From November 18 at 10:00am CT to November 25 at 10:00am CT, Epic Games Store users can claim Guild of Dungeoneering, KID A MNESIA EXHIBITION, and Never Alone....

That’s not to say that it hasn’t been a journey without troubles, both for the Epic Games Store and for Epic itself. Competition with Valve’s Steam is still largely in the more entrenched Steam’s favor, and Epic’s so far unsuccessful legal battle with Apple has not helped the company. Now, a power move by Epic may wind up being impactful in its contest against Steam. RELATED: Fortnite Formally Credits Among Us for Its Impostors Mode...

Frailties were exposed in a 2-1 defeat that prevented the Three Lions from booking their place at Euro 2020 as Michael Keane in particular struggled behind a midfield pairing of Declan Rice and Jordan Henderson. The poor showing in Prague has forced manager Southgate to rethink his move away from the formation that served him well in Russia. Harry Maguire, John Stones and Kyle Walker, now dropped from the squad, formed a reliable back three en route to the semi-finals....

The 34-year-old Liverpool midfielder made 114 appearances for England over 14 years. Gerrard says Monday he “agonized’” over his future after the World Cup in Brazil, where England went out after the first round. He tells the Football Association that “this has been a very difficult decision, one of the toughest I’ve had to make in my career.” Gerrard says his international retirement helps “ensure I can keep playing to a high level and giving everything to Liverpool Football Club....

MANCHESTER, England (Reuters) - Arsene Wenger would be an ideal England coach and the Football Association should be prepared to wait until his Arsenal contract runs out in order to appoint the Frenchman, former FA executive director David Davies has said. The FA is seeking a new England boss after Sam Allardyce left the position on Tuesday, following a sting by the Daily Telegraph newspaper, having spent just 67 days in the job....

England and Ukraine first met in an international friendly at Wembley Stadium back in May 2000 which The Three Lions won by 2–0 courtesy of goals from Robbie Fowler and Tony Adams. England Squad: Jack Butland, Joe Hart, Leighton Baines, Ryan Bertrand, Gary Cahill, Phil Jagielka, Glen Johnson, Joleon Lescott, Kyle Walker, Michael Carrick, Tom Cleverley, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Steven Gerrard, Frank Lampard, Jake Livermore, Jermain Defoe, James Milner, Raheem Sterling, Adam Lallana, Danny Welbeck....

Also, with England experimenting with their team, it seems to be the time for India to strike gold; we must be wary, as concentrating on the weakness of the opposition often catches us off guard, like England found against Australia in the Ashes. The Ashes, however, is what I base my analysis on to arrive at four things that India have to do well in England to stand a chance to compete, let alone win....

Looking at his scenario, one of the professors commented, “Have you heard of Murphy’s Law? It says, " Anything that can wrong will go wrong”. That’s what he’s going through right now," I was perhaps a bit too young to understand then, but all those years later I do get it now and that through the eyes of a cricketer. Cheteshwar Pujara is not everybody’s favourite cricketer. In the modern-day environment, he finds a place in the books of only those who like a scrap....

Cautioning the 29-year-old against getting satisfied with his spectacular effort in the series opener, Tendulkar urged him to extend his impressive form in the remaining Tests too. Even though the skipper’s heroics ended in vain in Birmingham, the maestro assured Kohli that his inspiring passion for the game would eventually produce the desired results. “I would say, just continue, he’s doing a fantastic job so just continue. Don’t worry about what’s happening around you, keep your focus on what you want to achieve and let your heart guide the way,” Tendulkar told ESPNCricinfo....

England’s latest group match defeat at the hands of South Africa by 10 wickets may have slightly sullied their dominant run so far. But make no mistake, they are still the firm favorites coming in. New Zealand’s last no-fuss victory against Afghanistan in their last group match will give them much needed momentum going into the clash. Australia are a team that seemingly does not run out of batters who can change the game at will....

The match also saw a 203-run partnership between Janette Brittin and Barbara Daniels which remains the third-highest second-wicket partnership in the history of the tournament. Let us now look at some of the key stats in matches between these two teams at the World Cup. Key stats from England vs Pakistan matches at the World Cup 377/7 by England in 2017 is the highest team total. 78 all-out by Pakistan in 2009 is the lowest team total....

The Three Lions have won four and drawn two games since losing to Italy in July, and sit top of Group I ahead of the final round of fixtures. Gareth Southgate’s side need just a draw against minnows San Marino tonight to guarantee their spot at the World Cup in Qatar next year. Here’s everything you need to know about the next England game, including how to watch live....

Matt Parish’s men were ruthlessly dismantled by their hosts last month in a bruising 60-6 defeat at St James’ Park, with an undercooked performance that suggested their dark-horse credentials were already dead in the water. But a fine resurgence across the past few weeks, capped by a thrilling quarter-final win over Tonga, was topped in north London with one of the great RLWC vengeance tales as they held their nerve to break English hearts....

What is the world coming to? Not only was Stuart Pearce positively defiant in the face of England’s humiliating exit at the European Under-21 Championships, but he confidently assured the waiting press that he expects to remain in charge of the country’s primary development team. It is a “long-term plan,” said the former Manchester City manager. ”I’ve been very impressed with him, absolutely,” said FA chairman David Bernstein. Neither it seems has a sense of irony....

We all overshare with the world, but it’s the data that we don’t even know is being collected about us that can be really damaging. Information about our likes and dislikes, things we’re going through, medical problems, financial issues, and so on, is being collected on us, analyzed, and sold to advertisers and other companies by data brokers. Getting all this data removed from the internet is possible, but doing it alone can be difficult....
