Like many tourists, American students living abroad these days are feeling pinched as exchange rates move in the wrong direction. A year ago, a U.S. dollar was worth 1.25 euros; this week, the dollar-to-euro ratio stands at 1.41. While the weak dollar is hurting tourism, it can be especially punishing to study-abroad students, who generally have tighter budgets than vacationers and who must make their money last for months, instead of weeks....

“Just please everyone, keep getting vaccinated so we can all pack the stands and boo against the Astros,” Tapper said Thursday morning at the beginning of The Lead on CNN. The Houston Astros played Thursday afternoon at Yankee Stadium in New York. Yankee Stadium only had an announced crowd of 10,580, which is about 20 percent of a capacity-packed 54,251 fans. Despite a smaller crowd, Yankees fans were still vocal this week, and not just because it was an out-of-town team....
COD: Modern Warfare and Warzone updates Playlist update The playlist update went live first. This is not common, as Infinity Ward loves to switch up the COD playlists. The update was shipped across all platforms and saw both MW and Warzone receive new modes and changes. Modern Warfare received a Snipers Only team deathmatch mode, and removed the Zombie Royale button, leaving it accessible only in Warzone. Warzone saw Juggourdnaut Royale get removed and Halloween BR Solos switch to BR Monster Quads....
The wave of new Code Vein information starts with more thorough introductions to two support characters: Mia Karnstein and Yakumo Shinonome.

Code Vein also features an assist character named Yakumo Shinonome, a former mercenary bound by duty and his care for his fellow Revenants....
Gakpo has been a leading light for Louis van Gaal’s Netherlands in Qatar with three goals from four appearances during the tournament. The 23-year-old was tipped to leave PSV ahead of the 2022/23 campaign but a move away from the Dutch giants did not materialise. His form in the Middle East has revived rumours of a Premier League transfer, either in the January window or at the end of the domestic season....
The trio of front-runners matched their first rounds of 68 to head into the weekend at the top of the leaderboard at Doha Golf Club.

The Collection of Mana contains three games: the original Seiken Densetsu, aka Final Fantasy Adventure (aka Final Fantasy Mystic Quest in Europe) for the Gameboy, Secret of Mana for the SNES, and last, Seiken Densetsu 3 - now named Trials of Mana - which had never previously seen a release in English-speaking territories. Final Fantasy Adventure previously received a remake as Adventures of Mana, and Secret of Mana also received a HD remake, so it might surprise some to see the original versions come to the Switch....
More than seven years after he graduated from Juilliard in New York City, Coleman returned to Lincoln Center, albeit this time, as one of the stars of a Broadway play. The Great Society opened on October 1 with Coleman playing the part of Martin Luther King Jr. opposite acting powerhouse Brian Cox as President Lyndon Johnson. “A lot of times I didn’t think this was gonna happen, and I’m just very fortunate and appreciative of the opportunity to play MLK,” Coleman told Newsweek....

Thanks to one of our readers for passing along these notes from CM Punk‘s appearance at Comic-Con this past weekend. Punk appeared to be in a great mood and excited about this weekend. He was obviously really tired, and did talk about how he’s worn out. He joked about being ready to do nothing but sit on his couch. He said that he’s tired of traveling and never gets to see the places anyway since it’s just going from one show to the next, without ever getting to do any touristy stuff....
Since his initial 10-year WWE run ended in 2010, Batista has starred in several movies with different genres. CM Punk has also appeared in movies since his WWE exit in 2014, including the horror film — ‘Girl on the Third Floor.’ Speaking to Movie Trivia Schmoedown’s Kristian Harloff, Punk recently highlighted how Batista has pushed himself to portray vastly different characters in every movie he appears in. CM Punk starred in the horror-thriller movie ‘Jakob’s Wife’ earlier this year....
CNN debates have been marked by a tendency to pit one candidate against another, American Gladiators–style, so it’s no surprise that the cable network took its own journalistically dubious “scoop”—about Bernie Sanders allegedly telling Elizabeth Warren in 2018 that “he did not believe a woman could win” a race against Donald Trump—and used it as the basis of questions to both Sanders and Warren at its pre–Iowa caucus debate in Des Moines (presented jointly with the Des Moines Register)....
Now, however, it appears that Metzen is going to take a long-deserved break from video game design and development to focus on his family and personal life. Metzen announced his retirement internally to Blizzard on Monday before creating a post in the Blizzard forums hours later to explain to his many fans why he’s choosing to step back from the industry at the young age of 42: Metzen is best known as the man behind the epic stories that characterize Blizzard games, with writing creative and compelling enough to serve as the inspiration for the most successful video game movie of all-time in Warcraft....
In Co-Op Watch, a weekly series investigating new hits, hidden gems, and classic titles, the goal is to find the very best games to bring two or more people together in jolly cooperation. Games will be considered based on how easy it is to play with friends or strangers online, how well gameplay is built around cooperation, and what makes each game’s cooperative play stand out. Monster Hunter has always been a series with co-op baked into the formula, and Rise is no different, but it has plenty of new features to consider and a few downsides to be wary of....
McGregor and Nurmagomedov clashed at UFC 229 back in 2018, in what was arguably the biggest lightweight title bout in the promotion’s history. At the time, Conor McGregor was at the peak of his combat sports career, having faced Floyd Mayweather Jr. in a highly-publicized boxing match the previous year. After over a year away from the Octagon, McGregor was coming back to reclaim the UFC lightweight championship. In Conor McGregor’s absence, Nurmagomedov took the reins of control in the lightweight division....
Japan’s Olympic female judokas were beaten with bamboo swords and slapped by their coaches, officials said, weeks after a schoolboy suicide sparked debate over corporal punishment. A 15-strong group of judokas complained to the Japanese Olympic Committee (JOC) last month that they had been subjected to physical punishment by the team’s head coach. The group, which included athletes who took part in the London Olympics, charges that head coach Ryuji Sonoda routinely abused them, slapping them in the face and hitting them with thick wooden swords like those used in the Japanese martial art of kendo....
The statement, which comes amid controversial new voting law restrictions proposed by Republican lawmakers in nearly every state, was organized by Kenneth Chenault, a former chairman and CEO of American Express, and Kenneth Frazier, the chairman and CEO of Merck. After restrictive new laws were implemented in Georgia, Chenault and Frazier led a group of Black executives last month to call on companies to oppose similar voting law proposals across the country....
