The Oculus Quest, also known as Meta Quest, is a virtual reality headset. Initially developed by Oculus, a division of Meta Platforms, the first Quest released in 2019 and works as a standalone headset which can run Android-based apps. The Quest 2 arrived the following year with some physical improvements, including a better resolution screen and lighter build. The rebranding from Facebook to Meta, as well as the rapid updates to the Quest, might have something to do with CEO Mark Zuckerberg’s vision for the metaverse, which the company has been pivoting towards in the past year....

Both sides carved out numerous chances to break the deadlock but a goal would not materialise. The result sees ATK maintain their spot atop the table with 10 points from five games while Odisha are now fifth with five points from as many matches. The game got off to an energetic start with ATK looking to go forward quickly. However, Odisha pressed their opponents hard and forced a couple of mispasses....

The versatile 22-year-old has reportedly been a target for Madrid for some months and, according to Marca, has already told Zinedine Zidane’s side that he would be willing to make the move. However, the player says his sole focus is on preparing for Spain’s World Cup warm-up match against Switzerland on Sunday. “My future is the national team,” he told reporters on Wednesday. “I’m 22, it’s a dream for me to go to the World Cup....

Chelsea went on to do what seemed like improbable to most people. Beating Manchester City at their own ground was one of the biggest scalps of the season for the “little” horses of the Stamford Bridge stable. The bizarre analogy was nothing new from Jose Mourinho, who earlier left Chelsea in 2007 after bickering over the quality of eggs with Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich. Away from the mind games, the kind of match Chelsea played, it was not wrong to compare the Chelsea team with members of the Equidae family, albeit not horse but donkey, for the sheer brilliance of the work shift the team put in....

Acting Essex County Prosecutor Theodore N. Stephens II announced the charges filed against 25-year-old Newark Police Officer Louis Santiago on Wednesday. According to a press release from the Essex County Prosecutor’s Office, the incident occurred on November 1, at around 3 a.m. while Santiago was driving his 2005 Honda Accord on the Garden State Parkway near exit 151. While driving, Santiago “failed to maintain his lane and traveled on the right shoulder of the Garden State Parkway,” and fatally struck a pedestrian....

Barcelona’s new kits for 2017-18 leaked? The 25-year-old midfielder signed a four-year-deal with the club after an undisclosed fee was agreed with Ingolstadt, who have been relegated from the Bundesliga. Gross created more chances (95) than any other player in the Bundesliga this season and he is set to complete his move to Brighton on June 10, when the transfer window opens. Brighton secured promotion to the Premier League for the first time in the club’s history after finishing second behind Newcastle United, with manager Chris Hughton expecting Gross to be a complementary addition to his squad....

Of course, the bones in question aren’t human bones. Instead, the Rebel Distillers DOOM vodka uses roasted and smoked beef bones as a key ingredient. The marrow is extracted from the bones and macerated in neutral grain alcohol, then distilled at a low temperature in a vacuum still. This creates a vodka with a “dry, earthy start” that leads to an “umami and buttery feel on the tongue.” It’s certainly an interesting concept and one that many people will likely find bizarre....

Thousands of Haitian migrants have gathered in the small Texas border town of Del Rio, many seen camped under a bridge. The official said that many of those released into the U.S. were issued notices to appear at an immigration office within a 60-day period, which allows Border Patrol workers to process them quicker than the alternative of ordering them to appear in immigration court. Additionally, the Department of Homeland Security has been transporting Haitian migrants from Del Rio to several locations along the Texas border and flying some to Tucson, Arizona, where Border Patrol agents are processing them, the official said....

It was an incredible play by Tucker, whose 66-yarder not only was an NFL record, but also kept him a perfect 16 of 16 in field goals attempted in the final minute of regulation. Unfortunately for him, the play may be overshadowed by the fact officials missed a clear delay of game penalty prior to his attempt.

MORE: Which sports figure does each candidate remind us of? Trump is speaking at Buffalo’s First Niagara Center tonight, and guess what. Guess what. Guess what. Trump, beyond a shadow of a doubt, knows Rex Ryan is alive. Last week in Pittsburgh, he left his stance on Joe Paterno’s status somewhat in doubt. Ryan, meanwhile, now finds himself in the tenuous position of appearing to back a candidate running a campaign fueled by racism, and agreeing with the Patriots....

Appropriately, the evening began with our national anthem. The lights dimmed. A single spotlight shone on a remarkably talented young man who proceeded to give a flawless a cappella rendition of ““The Star-Spangled Banner’’–replete with enough cadenzas, ornaments and gospel licks to do Patti LaBelle proud. As has become the custom at such events, the audience responded with loud cheers, beginning about four bars before the anthem’s end. The applause was clearly for the performance and not for the anthem or its country....

The short-lived measure took effect on Nov. 24 and sparked protests from abortion-rights demonstrators who claimed it was unconstitutional. The council repealed the ordinance with a 6-1 vote on Monday, the Cincinnati Enquirer reported. The passage of the measure was largely symbolic since Mason does not currently house any abortion clinics and has no plans to build any. There are also no clinics in the nearby city of Lebanon, which in May became the first city in Ohio to ban abortions....

It has happened before — 2005, to be exact — to a national championship-caliber Buckeyes team. On Saturday, No. 2 Ohio State blew a two-touchdown lead and gave up 17 fourth-quarter points in a 24-21 loss at Penn State. There’s a difference between this year’s loss and the 2005 one, however. That one cost the Buckeyes a chance at the BCS championship game. This one won’t cost Ohio State a chance at the four-team College Football Playoff....

Should Ohio State fans have a beef with the SEC officiating crew? Yes. Were the refs the only reason why the Buckeyes lost? No. Ohio State can blame itself for several reasons, too. That’s the best way to approach Ohio State’s latest Playoff experience, even if the lead topic of conversation for the foreseeable future will be that series of questionable calls by the referees.

It's Seguin's first game against the team that drafted him in 2010, developed and extended him in 2012 and traded him in 2013. You'll hear more about it over the next two days or so. What it boils down to, as told by general manager Peter Chiarelli in a lengthy interview with WEEI's D.J. Bean, is that the Bruins needed to clear space to re-sign Tuukka Rask and replace Nathan Horton, and Seguin's lack of physicality wasn't a match for Boston's system....

The draw is out and Malaysia will go up against Iraq, Saudi Arabia and Jordan in Group C of the 2018 AFC Under-23 Championships in China next year.

Octopath Traveler launched in July 2018 as a timed exclusive for the Nintendo Switch. The game’s release was celebrated as Square Enix’s return to the pixel-art JRPGs that made the company what it is today, modernized for a new generation. It also faced criticism, however, for its disjointed overarching story, the lack of connection between party members, and grindy progression. With Square Enix’s Octopath Traveler team moving on to Triangle Strategy, some worried an Octopath Traveler sequel wouldn’t be made....

OPMD is a type of muscular dystrophy (MD), an inherited disease that causes progressive weakness and degeneration of the skeletal muscles. Age of onset, severity of symptoms, muscles affected, and inheritance pattern vary between the over 30 types of MD. In oculopharyngeal muscular dystrophy, a genetic defect causes the production of a nonfunctional protein, which clumps in the muscle cells. This clumping mainly affects the muscles of the upper eyelids and throat, causing a variety of symptoms....
