“We would score on like a 10- or 12-play drive,” former Steelers guard Craig Wolfley told Sporting News. “Danny comes back with Mark Duper and Mark Clayton and like three throws he’s over the 50-yard line, down around our 35 or 30.

In response, much of the current research has been focused on a functional cure for HIV. Instead of eradicating the virus, a functional cure would aim to suppress viral activity to levels where it cannot cause the body any harm and do so without the ongoing use of drugs.

Away from this bizarre sequence of events, the Indian team were cruising along in Sri Lanka, where the weather generally tends to be on the damper side, but at least it is uniform, and yet this time people were surprised with the frequent spurts of extended sunshine to make matters a wee bit interesting. Perhaps the Indian team did not blink enough for the weather to change, perhaps they never needed to blink, their journey was so smooth that they encountered almost no potholes along the way… and as the team wrapped up the ODI series 5-0 after having schooled the hosts in Tests, perhaps the time is ripe to ask, what exactly did the Indian team gain?...

Avatar: The Way of Water takes place a few years after the end of the last movie - about 14 or 15 years, to be exact. That time has been idyllic for Jake Sully (Sam Worthington) and Neytiri (Zoe Saldaña). There have been no threats against the Na’vi, and only a few, friendly humans remain on Pandora. Of course, that couldn’t last forever. RELATED: Avatar: The Way Of Water Wins Weekend Box Office With $134 Million Performance...
