Sixteen teams are fighting for the Stanley Cup this season, with the top three teams from each division and two wild-card teams making the postseason in each conference. Last year, because of the COVID-19 pandemic, the NHL realigned its division and had the top four teams from each division make the playoffs.

Apart from the devastation caused by the coronavirus pandemic, the U.S. election has been the second-biggest source of uncertainty for global currency markets as prospects for drastic policy change weigh on the dollar.

The MCU served as a major departure from Star-Lord’s original backstory, and given how well Ego turned out, it is hard to argue against the change being a good one. Still, it is nice to see the comics’ version of events represented, with the Star-Lord of Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy having royal roots as opposed to Celestial ones.

The Timekeeper Within Cells An article published in a 2013 issue of Genome Biology outlines how a natural chemical process that occurs within a cell can be used as a kind of timekeeper or gauge of how quickly that cell is aging. This process, known as methylation, alters DNA — the genetic building blocks of cells — in a pattern associated with advancing age. Prior research at the University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA) used saliva samples from 34 pairs of identical twins to demonstrate which DNA sites linked methylation reliably to the age of the subjects....

Of course, many have wondered whether Xbox Live Gold is still worth subscribing to, given that it now only offers access to paid online games and a monthly roster of free titles. Although those whose sole intention for having Xbox Live Gold is to play free-to-play online games are better off on Xbox Game Pass, players who are after Games with Gold are in luck now that Microsoft appears to have taken a different approach in selecting games for the service....

Microsoft has assured fans that Xbox Live isn’t changing or going away for Xbox Series X/S, but that doesn’t take the Games with Gold deal out of the equation. With Xbox Game Pass offering over 100x more games compared to the offering each month, ranging from brand new games to backwards compatible titles, it’s hard for some to still get excited for the Games with Gold offerings.
