Over the weekend, more than 6,000 pages of court documents from the former couple’s legal battle were unsealed, shining a light on the trial sparked when Depp, 59, filed a $50 million lawsuit against Heard, 36, in response to a 2018 op-ed for The Washington Post, in which she said that she was a domestic abuse survivor. Following a high-profile trial in Fairfax, Virginia, the jury in June found that Heard had, indeed, defamed Depp and awarded him more than $10 million....

Perhaps the most disturbing allegation the Aquaman star made against Depp is that he physically abused her with a liquor bottle and threatened to “carve up” her face. She described the purported incident in explicit detail, claiming that Depp’s aggression had been fueled by his jealousy over her working with Eddie Redmayne on The Danish Girl as well as Billy Bob Thornton on London Fields. Dr. Dawn Hughes, the forensic psychologist hired by Heard’s legal team, testified to those claims as well....

Amber Nova is a professional wrestler who has been wrestling since 2016. She is currently wrestling on the independent circuit but has worked with both IMPACT Wrestling and WWE. In an interview with Danial Ali from the DropKick Podcast, Amber Nova spoke about her time with IMPACT Wrestling. She recalled working with the likes of Gail Kim and Taya Valkyrie and how amazing it was working there. Apart from Taya Valkyrie, Amber Nova had some great matches with other IMPACT stars as well....

Now, at the end of 2017, it has renamed it again to Adrenalin Edition. Not after the hormone, as you might guess, but after a red rose which matches Radeon’s red colour. The drivers include updates to Radeon Chill, WattMan, ReLive and Enhanced Sync. There’s the usual performance improvements too (AMD reckons there’s been a 15 percent boost in performance on average since Crimsom ReLive was first launched). But the big news is a new in-game overlay which lets you check on your GPU, message friends and change settings....

Let’s start with the new addition to the laptop market, the AMD Radeon RX 6000S Mobile Graphics. Designed to be used in thinner and lighter gaming laptops than the flagship 6000M series, the 6000S can be used in laptops 20% thinner than standard gaming laptops, and it’ll weigh around 2Kg maximum too. Of course, being a mobile GPU designed for thin and light laptops, it has to be power-efficient, and AMD says that the S-series graphics cards have been optimised for better efficiency and performance per watt, but specifics will likely depend on the specifics of the laptop in question....

Consider the stakes. The ayatollahs’ regime is the world’s greatest state sponsor of terrorism. The regime funds, arms, trains, and directs terrorist organizations and cells in nearly every country in the world. Iran apparently passed the nuclear threshold this year, which means the ayatollahs are now capable of developing nuclear weapons at will. Iran has an advanced ballistic missile industry and fields missiles capable of hitting targets in most of Europe....

Last week, the U.S. Olympic Committee announced that New York and San Francisco are the finalists to compete against other world capitals for the 2012 Summer Games. Nothing against San Francisco or New York–they are both great cities with lots to do, plenty of interesting people and big pools of money with which to bribe Olympic officials–but since when do San Francisco and New York represent our nation in anything?...

Wholesome, likable Mormon competitors are now so plentiful that some viewers have taken to playing Spot the Mormon. Former “Idol” contestant Carmen Rasmusen, herself a Mormon, says one of this season’s early episodes set off her Mormon radar when she heard White tell the judges she’d never seen an R-rated movie. “My husband and I just looked at each other and said, ‘She’s totally Mormon.’ I mean, who else would say something like that?...

Telehealth has exploded in popularity in 2020; so much so that the American Medical Association (AMA) has called for expansion of telehealth services beyond the pandemic through bipartisan legislation in the form of The Telehealth Modernization Act of 2020. The bill would make telehealth accessible to patients across the nation, whether in a city center or rural area, as well as allow all types of practitioners to offer telehealth services....

Rebecca Frazier from Oregon was aboard the Diamond Princess which is expected to be held at the port of Yokohama, south of Tokyo, until at least February 19 after a passenger from Hong Kong had tested positive for the virus also known as 2019-nCoV on February 1. Speaking to ABC news from her hospital room in Yokohama, Frazier said that she is “feeling good still,” having had a slight cough when she arrived for treatment, as well as a slight temperature, but “both of those have normalized....

Amon is an 18-year-old winger who has broken through with the first team at Danish side FC Nordsjaelland, having spent the past three years developing in the club’s academy system. He made his first-team debut last November and quickly turned heads with his game-changing speed and fearless approach to running at defenders. Amon honed that fearlessness and ability to take on defenders in games of two-on-two he and his three brothers played while growing up in Charleston, South Carolina....

The American people are rejecting this spending binge not only because it’s divorced from their actual concerns and priorities, but also because they can foresee the damage it will inflict on an economy that is still extremely fragile. I’ve traveled around the country to dozens of states these past few months, and the consistent message I get from concerned Americans is that Washington is badly disconnected from the reality they’re facing....

Using a fullcourt pressure defense, the USA got five steals from starting center Chinanu Onuaku of Louisville and held the Argentines to just 20 first-half points. Villanova-bound point guard Jalen Brunson started and delivered six assists. High schooler Jayson Tatum scored 14 points on 6-of-8 shooting.

House Democrats will begin holding online, unofficial committee proceedings this week. This includes a Judiciary Committee virtual roundtable on Wednesday with a subcommittee examining immigration officials’ coronavirus response and conditions in migrant detention facilities. This is much to Republicans’ chagrin. Aside from concerns about chamber rules and precedent, some Republicans fear their counterparts across the aisle could use the virtual process to unfairly wield their majority power and drown out GOP lawmakers....

The cryptocurrency that can be traded peer-to-peer is often dubbed “digital gold” because there is no central bank authority controlling its supply. That physical gold has outperformed many other investments during the COVID-19 crisis is no surprise. For centuries, gold has rightly been regarded as a premier safe-haven asset. With its price soaring in the last few months to an all-time in late July, gold has only reinforced its reputation as a store of value, the investment to turn to when everything else is uncertain....

According to a recent report from Tom’s Hardware, prices for Nvidia RTX and AMD RX cards have started to come down in price, with some showing a 10% decrease since December 2021. On average, it looks as though most of the current graphics cards on the market are dropping by 5%, if not more. The reason for this, it seems, is that Bitcoin and Ethereum are at record lows, with coin values dropping by 50% of their highest values....

Kaiser illustrated that example when Concord, New Hampshire Police Officer Brian Cregg was seeking a person on the run. He later found “Kerry,” who had earlier laid underneath a woman’s truck. According to Kerry, there was a contest and he told Cregg the prize was a new pickup truck if he could only find the truck with a key hidden underneath. Local police knew Kerry from similar events, but decided his disposition was better explained by psychological issues rather than narcotics....

Now, a video has resurfaced showing Trump saying he’s met Mafia figures who were “very nice people.” “Have you ever knowingly done business with what I like to call organized crime?” David Letterman asked Trump in 2013 when the future president appeared on CBS’s The Late Show. “I’ve really tried to stay away from them as much as possible,” Trump responds. “You know, growing up in New York and doing business in New York, I would say there might have been one of those characters along the way, but generally speaking I like to stay away from that group....
