The Recording Academy released a document Tuesday outlining how they were going to achieve diversity within all levels of production. The “inclusion rider” requires producers to recruit and hire more diverse candidates on screen and behind the scenes who have been in groups excluded from the industry in the past. According to the initiative created by co-authors Kalpana Kotagal and Fanshen Cox DiGiovanni, the rider is an addendum to a contract that creates conditions for more equitable casting and hiring, focused on developing a diverse talent pipeline in the entertainment industry....

The agreement between the two clubs and the player closed this Friday and Ponce will play this season in the Andalusian club on loan from the Italian team, reports Efe. Ezequiel Ponce, 19, was one of the key players of the Rome youth team last season. He arrived to the Italian team from Argentina’s Newell’s Old Boys last summer. The player was just one step away from joining Sporting Gijon, but ultimately negotiations between two teams failed and an agreement was reached with Granada....

As seen in the announcement trailer from the OpenIV team (via Kotaku), Grand Theft Auto 5 will eventually receive the Liberty City mod “soon,” as players are urged to “go back where it all started.” Unfortunately, though, the footage is only a tease for what’s to come, as the clip simply focuses on a camouflaged cargo plane flying from a San Andreas airfield toward the skyline of Liberty City, with the mod’s developers failing to offer an official release date....

As most know, the PC version of GTA V is the only that supports mods, and it didn’t take long for all kinds of crazy and weird add-ons to start popping up online shortly after support went live. Gamers have been able to turn themselves into animals and superheroes, go back in time to earlier versions of GTA and can even play with armor and weapons from completely different franchises....

The focus on Super Bowl 55 isn’t entirely without direction, but it’s a reach to be sure. The speculation takes root in last year’s Super Bowl, the Miami-based Super Bowl 54. Those who watched Super Bowl 54 might recall that Fox produced a video for its kickoff show with a Grand Theft Auto Vice City theme. The video featured a Fox NFL Kickoff logo with the Vice City font, then showed clips with mini-map and star-rating graphics in the corners....

The flagship open-world series marches on with its head held high. With Grand Theft Auto 6 possibly releasing in 2024, there’s still quite a wait ahead for the new entry, but the sheer amount of hype for it shows that the gaming community is nowhere near tired of this long-running franchise. Many will remember the very first installment that released way back when, and the fact that Rockstar’s most lucrative asset has now turned a quarter of a century old may be a sobering thought to some....

Back in 2017, Rockstar put the idea of story DLC to rest, though DLC rumors, for both the story and the online mode, had been floating around for quite some time. These rumors came via data mines of the single-player campaign, and they suggested that GTA 5 story DLC might include a zombie apocalypse, a Trevor-focused story, and an Ocean’s Eleven-style heist of the casino. According to Tez and Yan2295, two influential figures within the GTA community, most of that data mined story DLC was re-purposed for Grand Theft Auto Online....

Thus, there were a few raised eyebrows when the controversial figure was accepted into the NoPixel server, which recently launched in version 3.0 hosting an exclusive list of top streamers and personalities under the purview of strict administration that culminates into a rich roleplaying experience for players and viewers alike. This results in a bold degree of separation between reality, and the reality of the NoPixel characters. RELATED: A Recent Take-Two Action May Hint The Rumored GTA Remasters Are Real...

In a post titled “Xmas present from my very Karen grandma to my African American wife,” a Reddit user posting under the handle The_Alchemyst shared a picture of the luxurious gift given to his partner this year. It shows a set of black pearls resting inside a black leather box. According to Pearl-Lang, black pearls or “Tahitian pearls” are “considered the most exotic variety of pearl” and originate from a black-lipped oyster known as the “Pinctada margaritifera cumingii....

He can barely remember his last title as it came all the way back in 2001. So while people ask about a title drought that has lasted longer than a decade, at least he’s in the conversation. Gordon, fourth in the Cup standings with five races left in the season, hasn’t felt this good about his team at this point in the season since 2007, when he finished second in the standings after a solid duel with Hendrick Motorsports teammate Jimmie Johnson....

Goretzka is out of contract at the Veltins Arena at the end of this season and has been linked with a host of leading European clubs, including Liverpool and Juventus. Bayern appear to have stolen a march in the pursuit of the 22-year-old, with Marca and Sport Bild reporting on Sunday he had opted to join the Bundesliga champions ahead of Barcelona. But Schalke’s sporting director Christian Heidel told Sport 1 there is no done deal to discuss at this stage....

Blizzard has given its characters some casual attire in the past, as one of the standout skins for the Overwatch hero Hanzo shows him wearing a jacket, pants, and shoes. Many have been hoping to see Pharah get a similar skin, though with her moveset requiring her to have the ability of flight, it is hard to imagine a scenario where such a design is possible. With her Lifeguard and Aviator skins likely being the closest players will get, fan art seems like the only chance for fans to see a version of Pharah that is not dressed for some kind of fight....

RELATED: The Best And Worst Things About Gotham Knights There are story reasons to play Gotham Knights four times though.

DeSantis spoke against “fixating” on testing for COVID-19 when developing plans for allowing loved ones to visit vulnerable residents of long-term care facilities during a Tuesday roundtable discussion on the difficulties the virus poses for those in the facilities. “Do not only fixate on testing… look, I’m comfortable with the PPE,” DeSantis said. “Hell, hug ’em, I mean come on. If you have PPE on and you hug and don’t sneeze or do something on them, you’re going to be fine… obviously, if you’re there for 30 minutes doing that and then you do, well then that’s going to be a different situation....

A jury returned a guilty verdict in the case of Adam Fox and Barry Croft Jr. Both men were charged with conspiracy to kidnap Whitmer and conspiracy to use a weapon of mass destruction, while Croft was additionally charged with possession of an unregistered destructive device. “I want to thank the prosecutors and law enforcement officers for their hard work, and my family, friends, and staff for their support,” Whitmer wrote....

When the left ventricle is stiff (restrictive cardiomyopathy), it cannot fill up completely, the way a brand-new balloon might be difficult to fill up with air because it is so tight. When this happens, the incoming blood backs up and congests nearby organs while the rest of the body doesn’t get enough blood. Grade 1 is mild. It is considered by some to be an expected or even a normal part of aging and is not usually cause for alarm....

The Broncos brass have put their faith in Payton to fix the franchise after the short-lived Nathaniel Hackett experiment. Russell Wilson’s first season in Denver was a disaster that led to Hackett’s firing. The Broncos’ job was deemed as a tough one, which explains why it took this long for the franchise to convince Payton. However, the Broncos didn’t get Payton for free as they had to send some draft compensation to the New Orleans Saints in order to bring him on board....
