Whilst saying he was 'very impressed' with Niemann's play, he referred to the star's former coach Maxim Dlugy as the teenager's 'mentor', saying he 'must be doing a great job'.
Dlugy is a grandmaster who was previously banned from playing platform Chess.com for alleged cheating.

Peloton, an exercise equipment and media company, told employees in August the company is slashing 784 jobs, increasing equipment prices, closing several retail locations and requiring all non-remote employees to return to the office by November 14. 

The Star Entertainment Group (TSEG) says it has a plan for "a multi-year transformation of the governance, accountability and capabilities, culture and risk, and compliance management practices of the organisation".

Fans were eager to hear Pratt's Mario voice, especially because co-producer Chris Meledandri said he won't use the exaggerated Italian accent made famous by video game voice actor Charles Martinet. We won't ruin it for you. Watch the trailer.

Most notably, his company-wide freezing of new hires and the canceling of a massive company holiday party due to the company's tanking stock prices while he attended a lavish, invite-only party for some of his instructors at New York City's Plaza Hotel.
Before Brady's big game on Sunday, a video was posted by posted by the Buccaneers showed him hugging his three children - his son Jack, 15, who he shares with Blue Bloods star Bridget Moynahan, and his two kids with Gisele: Benjamin, 12, and Vivian, 9.

The platform's current top Patreon creator is the True Crime Obsessed podcast, according to Graphtreon. The podcast with hosts Patrick Hinds and Gillian Pensavalle has more than 47,000 patrons donating to their show.

The damning report comes after Niemann made headlines in September when chess champion Magnus Carlsen (pictured) suggested Niemann was a cheater, which culminated in rumors the 19-year-old was using vibrating anal beads to communicate with his coach

The teams entered the postseason heading in opposite directions, and that trend continued in Game 1. Tampa Bay has lost six straight games while the American League Central champion Guardians have won 25 of their last 31 games.

Interim appointments were in place, with changed reporting lines to create better accountability and independence for risk management, "to ensure we move swiftly to strengthen The Star Sydney's operations and risk and controls management".

Even with amateur online tournaments, which are much easier to cheat in than professional meetings, players are motivated by the lure of prize money, as well as crucial ranking points they need to get them into more illustrious tournaments. 

It's-a here! The first trailer for The Super Mario Bros. Movie dropped during a Nintendo Direct presentation on Thursday. The trailer had its simultaneous premiere at New York Comic Con, which runs Thursday to Sunday.

One day after ending an eight-game postseason losing streak, the Cleveland Guardians will look to record another milestone when they face the visiting Tampa Bay Rays in Game 2 of the best-of-three American League wild-card series on Saturday.

Aside from Pratt, the all-star cast includes Charlie Day as Luigi, Anya Taylor-Joy as Peach, Jack Black as Bowser, Seth Rogen as Donkey Kong and Keegan-Michael Key as Toad. Martinet will also have a surprise role.

A statement from the commission said The Star had met its deadline to make submissions as to why the regulator should not take disciplinary action against it, and they would be considered before determining its response.

That said, it admitted that there was 'no direct evidence that proves Hans cheated at the September 4, 2022 game with Magnus, pkvgames or proves that he has cheated in other OTB [over the board] games in the past.'

"We submit that the appropriate action NICC should take is to allow TSEG to continue to operate the licence, under strict supervision and being held accountable to the milestones on the remediation plan."

Chess.com explained that they applied statistical analysis to Niemann's games, comparing his moves to those a chess engine would make in the same position. A high correlation between the two strongly points towards cheating.

The company says it has taken "significant and urgent remedial steps, including increased risk, compliance, and security staff, approval of upgrades to surveillance technology as well as permanently exiting junkets and closing the Marquee nightclub".

Gisele was also conspicuously missing from the sidelines - and the stands - of Brady's first home game with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in September. But insiders say she was never set to attend the game.
