Andretti died Tuesday, a few weeks after suffering a heart attack. Grandson Marco Andretti announced her death on social media , posting: “RIP Grammy Andretti. You will be missed.” The IndyCar Series later confirmed her death. Mario Andretti and Dee Ann Hoch met while she was teaching English to the Italy-born Andretti in Nazareth, Pennsylvania. They were married a few months later, in November 1961. Dee Ann Andretti mostly stayed in the background and raised their three children while her husband became one of the world’s most successful race car drivers....

Soda Is a Prime Culprit Soda has been named one of the prime culprits for both obesity and diabetes. Dentists across these areas are seeing an alarmingly high rate of tooth decay across all age groups from preschoolers with tooth decay to the elderly with higher rates of extracted teeth. Soda is a processed drink that contains carbonated water, a sweetener, and a natural or artificial flavoring. The sweeteners are usually either sugar, high-fructose corn syrup, fruit juice, sugar substitutes (in the case of diet drinks), or some combination of these....

First-half goals from Romelu Lukaku and Jesse Lingard put second-placed United on track for their sixth win in seven Premier League matches. But United eased off after the interval, with substitute Gareth Barry scrambling in West Brom’s first goal under Alan Pardew to set up a nervy finale in Sunday’s match. Mourinho insisted his side still did enough to win the game while acknowledging West Brom battled back well in the second half....

Named in the XI to face Aitor Karanka’s side on New Year’s Eve, Fellaini had not started for the club since November 6 and had been booed by his own fans after a disastrous substitute outing at Everton, where he conceded a late penalty. Mourinho’s message to Martial The Belgian impressed as the Red Devils came from behind to beat Boro on Saturday, however, with Anthony Martial and Paul Pogba scoring in the final five minutes to snatch a 2-1 win....

RELATED: Mortal Kombat 1995 Vs 2021: Which Movie Is Better? Mortal Kombat isn’t only the name of the highly successful and massively popular fighting game franchise. It is also the name of the tournament that occurs in the game itself. The Mortal Kombat tournament is as interesting as it sounds. The story behind this competition is fascinating and complex, as are its rules and rewards. Here’s what fans should understand about this epic contest....

Arguably the biggest news for Mortal Kombat 11 fans is that both Rain and Mileena are finally coming back. Mileena has always been in very high demand and likely a character that Ed Boon hears about more than any other for how vocal her fans are. As expected, Mileena comes with her sais and iconic purple outfit. Rain is also back, looking more regal than usual in an outfit that seems to be a cross between his MKX outfit and his more traditional purple ninja look....

Johnny Cage may be a wisecracking Hollywood star, but even he’d be given pause at the sight of some of MK’s more bizarre fighters. These are all highly concentrated in Mortal Kombat’s much-maligned 3D era, where Netherrealm was willing to try any idea it had. That spirit is somewhat alive today with all the action movie, horror movie, and comic book guests, but that’s more due to surprise factor. While no one would describe MK as a series with too much grim dignity, it’s still a chuckle to see what even it tried to leave behind....

As he so often likes to do, NetherRealm Studio boss, Ed Boon, is once again riling up the Mortal Kombat faithful promising ‘big’ news sometime today. A few more cryptic Tweets followed which may or may not have anything to do regarding the announcement such as the reveal that over 500,000 copies of Mortal Kombat X have been sold on PC and that ‘Rain’ is not in the forecast, indicating that everyone’s favorite purple ninja probably isn’t part of the announcement....

The Belgium star has since taken his tally to 96 in just 228 appearances in England’s top division and is well on track to becoming just the fifth man to reach 100 in the competition. The 31-year-old is also set to reach that milestone in record time: there is a good chance he will hit the 100-mark having made at least 100 fewer appearances in the competition than any other player....

RELATED: “Good” Anime Characters Who Were Revealed To Be Evil All Along Their crimes range from bringing multiple apocalypses to a plethora of human rights violations that even their followers just can’t ignore blindly. In hindsight, they make for a good storytelling element. Players not only get to enjoy and justify their rebellious gameplay, but they also get a good metric of what behavior to condemn in a leader....

The president has openly challenged the election results multiple times, often sharing conspiracy theories (such as claiming that Dominion Voting Systems deleted votes for him as well as changing votes for him to President-elect Joe Biden). As the president has filed lawsuits to challenge election results as well as publicly tweeting that he was the actual victor in the 2020 race, far few Republicans have publicly spoken out against his actions....

Some characters in the anime sport some unique, recognizable hats as part of their signature looks. The hats are mostly for aesthetic purposes, but these characters’ hats have become iconic for bringing the whole look together, or being important to the character whose head they rest on. 10 Alucard’s Wide-Brimmed Red Fedora (Hellsing) Alucard is pretty stylish for a vampire who is a vampire hunter. His wide-brimmed red fedora would probably look silly on anyone else, but it helps add to his cool look....

As global maternal mortality declines, the U.S. is the only developed country where it’s on the rise. The statistics are jaw-dropping: An American woman today is 50 percent more likely to die in childbirth than her own mother. Black women are three to four times more likely than white women to die from pregnancy-related causes. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recently added yet another heartbreaking number to the list:84 percent of maternal deaths in our country are preventable....

Buffon, 41, was an Italy team-mate of former Milan defender Maldini, who retired in 2009 at the age of 40. The iconic goalkeeper broke in the Parma first team as a teenager before joining Juve in 2001 in a £32.6million deal, making him the world’s most expensive goalkeeper at the time. It proved to be money well invested as he spent 17 years in a first spell with the Turin giants, staying at the club following relegation amid Italian football’s Calciopoli scandal and helping Juventus reel off seven successive Scudetti before leaving for Paris Saint-Germain in 2018....

In Fast Charge episode 94, we covered the range of brands who’ve promised to bring flagship smartphones to market, running on Qualcomm’s newly-unveiled Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 4nm chipset, and while Xiaomi seemed confidently poised to take point by introducing the silicon into its forthcoming Xiaomi 12 flagship phone before its competitors, it was Motorola who in actuality has landed first place, but unveiling the Motorola Edge X30 on 9 December....

However, while stockpiling butter and capturing castles, players will have to face many important decisions, such as which troops to focus on and who to marry. The most important one in Mount and Blade 2 is choosing which culture to play as. With six different options to pick from, each with unique advantages and disadvantages, players will want to know which one is the strongest. 6 Aserai The Aserai are great for a trader or merchant playthrough....

Rumors and speculation about Williams taking part in Mortal Kombat 11 have been around since it released thanks to data found within the game’s code, but the possibility of Evil Dead DLC dissipated when that code was removed in Aftermath and actor Bruce Campbell denied any rumors on Twitter. The waters became even murkier thanks to an interview Friday with NetherRealm Creative Director Ed Boon on Victor Lucas’ podcast Vic’s Basement, where Boon addresses questions about his inclusion by saying he wishes he could comment and “perhaps” he’ll be able to in the future....

Following one of the many leaks that occurred prior to the Mortal Kombat 11 launch, fans learned about a move known as Bug-Vorah. While many believed this to signal the return of animalities, a fatality style move that turned the character into an animal to finish the opponent, a Kombat Kast later held by the developers revealed the truth behind her unique new ability. Essentially acting as a last chance mechanic, D’Vorah is able to spawn a flying bug that has a chance to finish the match for her once her life bar is completely drained....

In a post on Twitter, Ed Boon uploaded an image of Michael O’Brien, the actor behind Stryker in Mortal Kombat 3, in the character’s attire. The post, which has begun to generate a healthy dose of speculation among Mortal Kombat 11’s fanbase, featured the caption “Stryker Pose…”. It could, of course, be yet another instance of Boon just messing with fans, or it could be a legitimate hint for the character’s addition to the game....
