  Yes, Kyle Shanahan is an offensive guru. However, if his offensive players were not able to evade defenders and create big plays, Matt Ryan would never have won MVP, and the 49ers would not be in their second Super Bowl in four years. 49ers starting quarterback Brock Purdy led the league in yards after catch per completion. While he was never afraid to push the ball downfield, his explosive teammates have the ability to take one of those crossing routes 30-plus yards on any play. Deebo Samuel, Christian McCaffrey, and George Kittle, hell, even fullback Kyle Juszczyk caught a…

Vibrators are some of the most approachable sex toys on the market, but there are a lot of them, so shopping for one can get overwhelming. Luckily, I have a few tips and tricks to help you narrow things down. First, look at the materials. For vibrators, you want them to be made with 100 percent platinum-cured silicone. Hard glossy plastic is OK for parts that don’t touch your genitals, but platinum silicone is nonporous, easy to clean, and body-safe. Unlike lesser grades of silicone, platinum silicone doesn’t off-gas any weird smells or compounds that may be unpleasant or even…

  Opinion President Joe Biden was on the receiving end of significant criticism after bragging about wearing his pro-Ukraine attire while discussing the $118 billion Senate bill that primarily benefits Ukraine. Biden made the remarks during a speech urging Congress to pass the bill on Tuesday. The President presented the bill as a border security effort when in reality, it is a massive funding boondoggle for foreign nations. Midway through his speech, Biden touted the legislation for providing “urgent funding for Ukraine.” The bill includes $60.06 billion in additional aid to Ukraine with a significant portion coming in the form…

  With a once-in-a-generation total solar eclipse in April, it’s shaping up to be a banner year for celestial activity in the U.S. Interest in the eclipse is heightening awareness of other celestial activities, such as meteor showers, supermoons and partial lunar eclipses — many of which happen annually. These stellar activities can also motivate travelers to visit wonderful destinations that may or may not have made their lists until now. In Texas, the total solar eclipse will cast its otherworldly aura on no fewer than three major cities in the Lone Star State and many towns and wide-open expanses…

by-studio/iStock via Getty Images We previously covered Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) in August 2023, discussing the market’s over-reaction to its lower iPhone sales and the decline of its US smartphone sales through FQ3’23. We had posited that consumers had likely been waiting for the launch of iPhone 15, with the Cupertino giant’s September quarter revenue record for iPhone and Services in FQ4’23 confirming our thesis then. However, things have taken a seasonal turn afterwards, with the pulled forward iPhone sales in 2022/ 2023 naturally triggering the consequent slow-down in AAPL’s sales by FQ1’24. For now, we believe that investors may want to…

When the cameras stop rolling and the press vests come off, how do the journalists who cover war cope? We often forget that journalists covering wars are regular people, too. They are parents, siblings, friends and colleagues. And sometimes, they, too, are struggling to survive whatever story they are trying to tell. Journalists in Gaza, including our own teams, have had to deal with the horrific consequences of Israel’s war – some have paid with their lives. Others have lost loved ones, colleagues, and their homes. Yet, they have carried on. We invited them for a more personal take on…

  Atletico Madrid boss Diego Simeone appears to have told Real Madrid star Luka Modric to join him at the Wanda Metropolitano next season. Modric, 38, has just four months left on his contract with Los Blancos, and this is his final campaign at the Santiago Bernabeu. The Croatian has enjoyed an illustrious career with Carlo Ancelotti’s side, making 514 appearances, and winning 23 major trophies as well as the Ballon d’Or. However, the Croatia international has been handed a more withdrawn role by Ancelotti at Real Madrid this season. He’s become more of a bit-part player, starting 10 of…

  With a month away from the Digital Markets Act (DMA) deadline, WhatsApp is preparing to allow other messaging networks in its app. In an interview with Wired, Dick Brouwer, an engineering director at WhatsApp, said that the company is ready to offer interoperability on the platform with over 2 billion users. “There’s real tension between offering an easy way to offer this interoperability to third parties whilst at the same time preserving the WhatsApp privacy, security, and integrity bar. I think we’re pretty happy with where we’ve landed,” he told the publication. The EU agreed upon including messaging interoprability…
