RELATED: Doctor Who: Scariest Monsters In The Modern Series Over the years, New Who has re-introduced a handful of Classic Who monsters: the Daleks, Cybermen, Sontarans, Autons, Zygons, Ice Warriors, Macra, and the Silurians. However, there are still monsters from Classic Who that deserve to make a re-appearance in the show, or at the very least in a Doctor Who game. Here are just a few that long-time fans would love to see again....

[HTML1] Many gamers have enjoyed LEGOs, either as a physical toy or video game, at some point in their lives. While LEGO video games have always highlighted zany and comical gameplay, the ’toys to life’ game LEGO Dimensions will offer cross-universe stories in which adventures like the wizard Gandalf of Lord of the Rings solving puzzles in Portal’s Aperture Science labs are the norm. It was previously leaked that The Doctor of the long-running Doctor Who series would be joining LEGO Dimensions’ cast, but few details were revealed at the time....

SalivaDirect, cleared by the FDA on August 15, is simpler, less expensive, and less invasive than using a nasopharyngeal swab to test for SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. The test isn’t perfect, and there is some room for a false negative result. A pre-print publication in medRxiv found that the SalivaDirect test had comparable results to a nasopharyngeal swab 94% of the time. “A few months ago, I would have said I would not be interested in this,” Rajeev Fernando, MD, an infectious disease expert in Southampton, New York, tells Verywell....

Roberts had an option for the 2019 season, but the Dodgers now have him under contract for an additional three years. He has been Los Angeles’ manager since 2016 and brought the team to the World Series in each of the past two seasons. The Dodgers have a 287-200 record under Roberts. “Keeping Doc as our leader on the field was a top priority this offseason,” Dodgers president Andrew Friedman said in a statement....

Matt Kemp: According to a report from Fox Sports’ Ken Rosenthal, “some rival officials say the Dodgers are more eager to move him than (Andre) Ethier or (Carl) Crawford.” Kemp was limited to 73 games this year, had ankle surgery, and even when he played, he clearly was not at 100 percent. Even so, in the games that he played, Kemp posted an OPS+ of 105, meaning that even hobbled, he was 5 percent better than league average....

Sometimes narratives don’t add up perfectly, but this one does if you look at each team’s payroll. In the pandemic-shortened season, the Dodgers were due to pay their roster $107.9 million, the second-most in baseball behind the Yankees. The Rays paid out $28.3 million, the third-lowest number in baseball, ahead of just the Pirates and Orioles (all payroll numbers via Spotrac). The Dodgers have reached their third World Series in four years, and although they haven’t won yet, they consistently follow suit with the expectations brought on by large salaries....

As a teenager, the two-time defending overall World Cup champion never experienced this level of nervousness before a race. Lately, that pressure has sometimes engulfed her. It first struck two years ago at an event and she thought it was just the flu. The feeling has overtaken her during several more races, including the Olympic slalom at the Pyeongchang Games last February when she finished fourth. This season, she’s trying something new after talking to a friend who doubles as a sports psychologist: Tune out expectations, enjoy the ride....

However, the big question audiences may have, considering the significant length of the movie, is whether there’s a reason to stick around after the credits for anything extra.

In most versions of the sheep sleep aid, people are told to imagine an endless stream of white sheep jumping over a fence, counting each as they go. The theory behind the counting sheep exercise is that the simple, rhythmic, and repetitive nature of the visualization helps people sleep. But does counting sheep actually put a person to sleep? Counting Sheep for Falling Asleep Those who’ve pondered the question are not alone....

Brought from Liverpool in a £142 million deal after a long transfer saga, Philippe Coutinho was earmarked as the Spaniard’s replacement. Many fans believed that Coutinho could be the right man to lead the midfield for Barcelona in the future. Dilemma of contrasting playing styles However, the Brazilian’s style of play is completely different from Iniesta. While the legendary La Masia graduate was more of a creator who liked to dictate the attacking tempo of the team, Coutinho is more of an attacking midfielder who likes to dribble through defences and has an eye for goal, rather than a pass....

Trump announced in the early hours of Friday that he had tested positive for coronavirus, and that he is isolating with the first lady Melania, who has also tested positive.

Should Trump later become unable to serve, Pence would—under the 25th Amendment—be next in line to temporarily carry out the responsibilities of president....

But some fans won’t even turn on the television. If they do, they’ll want to hurl what they ate for lunch, or at the very least, they’ll hurl the remote. These enraged fans want the 3 retired with a permanent halo, never raced in Cup again just as it hasn’t in the 13 years since Dale Earnhardt died. If they have the money, they’ll remove tattoos. If not, they’ll just rue the day team owner Richard Childress decided to put the 3 back in Cup for the 2014 Daytona 500 and beyond....
