Dani Pacheco can only find solace in Paul Laurence Dunbar’s “Life’s Tragedy”. Having arrived at Liverpool as a youth star from Barcelona’s famed academy in 2007, Pacheco finally left for his homeland earlier this season, signing for second division side Alcorcon after having spent six years in blustery England. Six years everyone but him and the club would call a colossal waste. Nicknamed “The Killer” for his serial finishing skills when he arrived as a fresh-faced boy from Barcelona, Pacheco was one of the first youngsters Liverpool had procured who were more in the “technical mould”, relying on their quick feet and needle-threading passes rather than bulldozing their way through defences....

PL: “I have many top quality clubs leading to an Army of highly competitive, high profile matches” LL: “We have a Clasico” Yup.

You can hear it coming from a distance, and it leaves a trail of destruction and euphoria in equal measure, in its wake. It’s a match that transcends primary loyalties in Spain....

Privately, some of Chalabi’s aides complain their old buddies in the office of the secretary of Defense have forgotten them....

Republicans are both hoping to gain control of the Senate and House of Representatives, allowing them to effectively stymie President Biden’s agenda until the 2024 presidential election. However, there are signs that America’s traditional party system, dominated almost completely by the Republicans and Democrats, could be starting to break down. The proportion of voters identifying as ‘independent’ has increased dramatically over the past couple of decades. The most recent Gallup poll in September on party affiliation shows a clear lead for voters who consider themselves independent, with 43 percent....

To start, the most important thing to do during the fight with The Last of Us 2’s Rat King is to maintain a good amount of space, as getting caught by it is certain death. As such, players should be moving frequently during this battle, using walls and barriers to slow the Rat King down, and only look to fire a few shots when they have adequate distance from the boss....

The thought of having to update a controller may seem strange to some, but it allows for improvements like this to be a reality. Naughty Dog’s Kurt Margenau, a Co-Director for The Last of Us 2, explains how this change came about. As it happens, the improvement to The Last of Us 2’s haptic feedback comes entirely from within the controller. RELATED: The Last of Us 2 Bodes Well for Naughty Dog’s Rumored Sci-Fi RPG...

In the third and penultimate stage of the Cordyceps infection, the parasitic fungus completely overgrows the zombie’s head, bursting out from its skull. This destroys the Clicker’s eyes, rendering them completely blind. However, their acute hearing, echolocation, and sheer ferocity make them far deadlier than The Last of Us’ more common types of Infected.

Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey are taking on the main roles, and trailers for the new HBO show have shown fans a glimpse of how they will encapsulate characters who have quickly become iconic. The game released at a time when zombies were all the rage, but the enemies they face are rooted in reality, being affected by a mutated cordyceps fungus that causes severe psychological and motor deficiencies.

9:20 p.m. Scotland was given two penalty tries and Samoa winger Ed Fidow a red card for giving away both of them in a pressure-relieving 34-0 win for the Scots in Kobe. Fidow collapsed a maul for his first yellow card, and slid in knees first to stop Sean Maitland scoring for his second sin-bin offense with five minutes to go. The two yellows added up to a red to keep Samoa’s terrible disciplinary record going at the World Cup....

RELATED: The Legend of Zelda: The 10 Best Dungeons Ranked Link is lauded as the Hero of Time, and has just as much of a claim to the quest of saving Hyrule (and beyond) as Zelda, as he possesses the Triforce of courage. However at the root of it, there isn’t really much that Link has as a hero over Zelda. In fact, in some ways, Zelda has even more qualities and traits more befitting of being the hero of the series....
