The words “diversity, equity and inclusion” sound just, and are often supported by well-intentioned people, but their effects are the opposite of noble sentiments. Most importantly, “equity” does not mean fair and equal treatment. DEI seeks to increase the representation of some groups through discrimination against members of other groups. The underlying premise of DEI is that any statistical difference between group representation on campus and national averages reflects systemic injustice and discrimination by the university itself....

Massive Entertainment has made it clear that it is possible to play through The Division 2 solo, but as some have come to discover, it’s certainly more difficult than tackling the missions with friends. Due to this, it’s important for The Division 2 solo players to choose the best skills possible early on to improve their performance in missions. 1. Assault Turret or Striker Drone The very first skill The Division 2 solo players should unlock should be either the Assault Turret or the Striker Drone....

With just over a week until The Division releases, chances are most gamers have already made up their minds about which system they’ll be playing the game on. However, the demonstration trailer, shows the level of detail that PC players will see during their playthroughs. According to the narrator and Technical Director of The Division, Anders Holmquist, the PC version of the game will make use of Nvidia’s GameWorks Technologies to create an even more realistic appearance....

Thousands of other Afghans will not be so lucky. In the last few months about 32,000 Afghans have streamed into Pakistan–but on Nov. 10 Islamabad slammed shut its doors. Security forces have sealed a 1,000-mile-long stretch of border between the two countries. Pakistani government officials say they can no longer handle the “back-breaking economic burden” of what is now believed to be the largest exodus from next door since 1992....

Skyrim originally released in 2011 and, since then, Bethesda has released the Dishonored franchise, multiple DOOM games, The Elder Scrolls Online, Fallout 4, Fallout 76, multiple Evil Within games, multiple Wolfenstein games, and more. And while they are all great games in their own right, none hold a candle to the influence that Skyrim has had since its release. And with little to go on for The Elder Scrolls 6, it’s clear that its hype train momentum is carried solely by Skyrim, and that could be a double-edged sword....

According to ZeniMax Online Studios game director Matt Firor, it will be quite a while until The Elder Scrolls 6 actually comes out, and since this is the case, it is far too early to discuss what the forthcoming game will contain. Regarding the matter, Firor said, “I don’t even know what the world is going to be like when it comes out; there will be a different console generation by then, I’m sure....

All fantasy video game RPGs inherit a huge legacy from TTRPG’s like Dungeons and Dragons. It’s been nearly thirty years since first Elder Scrolls game, and first edition Dungeons and Dragons launched nearly half a century ago. However, there are some recent changes made to the famous tabletop fantasy game that The Elder Scrolls 6 could learn from. RELATED: The Elder Scrolls 6: Who Is Tall Papa? Race In Dungeons And Dragons Back in 2020 Wizards of the Coast announced that D&D would be removing race-based stats from the game....

There’s more competition in the first-person RPG market than there was when Skyrim released. Between Avowed and Cyberpunk 2077, the genre has some highly anticipated titles on the next-gen consoles. Bethesda has also stated that The Elder Scrolls 6 will not be released until after another first-person RPG from the developer, a sci-fi epic titled Starfield. However, this could offer Bethesda a unique advantage that could allow the RPG giant to stay on top....

With the anniversary edition, it was also updated with a lot of new and super exciting features.

It is a 13-minute-long video, showing the game that has been heavily modded, with 1300 add-ons installed. Also, the video shows the visual improvements, such as ray tracing, with iteration running at 8K resolution....

Some memories get written deep into your DNA, so that responding to them is an inescapable physical act. The plane flies on without the sound of an explosion. The fire engines are only going to a car fire on Eleventh Avenue. The smoke is only from the engine burning. It is a spring day in 2004, not September 11, 2001. But the mind does not forget. Except, of course, in our nation’s capital, where the aftermath of that time–the united purpose, the patriotism, the thirst for solace and for truth–evaporated quicker than you can say “two-party system....

BENGALS VS. RAMS When St. Louis paid a visit Oct. 3, each had 99 losses. Cincy got to 100 first. St. Louis loses the hapless Cards, gets the hapless Rams in return. But hot start in ‘99. TIGERS VS. ROYALS In the last 10 years, Detroit has finished an average of 20 games out of first place. No cash, no flash. Best thing about K.C.: that cute little waterfall in center field....

The Argentine wizard has made it a normal occurence to score 30 goals in a season while bagging regular hat-tricks. In 718 appearances for Barcelona, Lionel Messi has amassed 627 goals and 261 assists. Along with Cristiano Ronaldo, Messi is quite possibly the greatest footballer ever. What is more interesting, though, is how Lionel Messi has managed to sustain and raise his level of performance year after year, despite age and a change in club managers and teammates....

If the guard (or the audience) has any doubts about Coffey’s innocence, these doubts are pretty much erased one hour into “The Green Mile,” the second adaptation of a Stephen King prison tale from writer-director Frank (“The Shawshank Redemption”) Darabont. In the movie’s first–and nearly last–surprising moment, Coffey reaches outside his prison bars and yanks Edgecomb up against his face. Placing his huge hands on the guard’s groin, Coffey proceeds (with the help of glowing lights, blowing fuses and soaring music) to magically cure the guard of a painful urinary-tract infection....

According the U.S. government’s contract website, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) awarded a contract to Public Health England (PHE), a government agency in the U.K., to investigate COVID-19 on March 2, 2020. The research piggybacks on an already existing project being carried out by PHE, which was funded by the FDA and is directed at the Ebola virus. Since COVID-19 was declared a public health emergency, the project has been modified to leverage capabilities outlined under the original contract, awarded in 2017, towards finding a solution to the current pandemic....

The CW have attempted to solve this quandary with a promotional video released on their YouTube channel, paying tribute to Arrow while laying out the future of their DC shows, calling it The CWverse! But fans have rejected this with one commenter saying “Umm Stephen Amell ain’t build this universe to be treated like some goofy. It’s the ARROWVERSE forever & always.” However Steve Amell stepped into the discussion with a suggestion of his own, posting on his Twitter account “It’s the Berlantiverse” referring to Arrowverse/The CWverse creator and executive producer Greg Berlanti....

Dear Tatiana, There are many positives from the season as it draws to a close, which will presumably include securing the Premier League in the coming weeks. Yet, it is an open question whether United has actually progressed this year. Silverware is silverware, and nothing is more important than regaining the Premier League, but United has still failed in three competitions. Moreover, the statistics do not paint a pretty picture of United’s campaign – in too many areas, the side has actually regressed this season....
