Masvidal also called out Democrats more broadly in his speech, saying they haven’t earned Latino voters. “The Democrats just think they’re entitled to the Latino vote. They think that we just have to hand it over to them,” he said to boos. “That’s right.

The Cubs (16-11) lead the division, and last weekend they swept the Brewers in a four-game series that included three shutouts. Leading the way for Chicago is its star studded pitching rotation that finally appears to be rounding into midseason form. That’s a positive sign considering the early struggles of Yu Darvish and Jose Quintana. At the plate, it’s been an inconsistent month to start the season for the Cubs....

How to Unlock the Toona Fish Colors Resembling a monochrome animated character, Toona Fish is comparable to season 7’s Kymera skin.

However, their was one game that truly took graphics to the next level and continues to do so in this present day; Crysis. To list the amount of graphical advancements that Crysis encompassed within its overall package would be long and a bit tedious. Many console gamers never got to experience the visual splendor of Crysis in person unless they had a rather powerful and quite expensive computer. So, that console gamer rejoiced last year when it was announced at E3 that Crysis 2 would go multiplatform....
