Elden Ring Radahn boss fight guide
Want to know how to beat the Elden Ring Radahn boss fight? There are over 80 bosses, but few are as fearsome as Starscourge Radahn. Despite being torn apart by Scarlet Rot, the Demi-God still has enough strength to hold back the stars and defeat any warriors who dare challenge him in mortal combat.
Cursed to wander the Caelid’s plains forever, Radahn is one of the hardest Elden Ring bosses, capable of taking down anyone standing in his path. Numerous NPCs will tell you how dangerous he is if you haven’t attempted to fight him. You need to be prepared with one of the best Elden Ring builds and the best summons and weapons in the RPG game. We recommend our Blood Loss Samurai build for the Elden Ring Radahn boss fight, as he’s weak against bleed effects.

Shocking moment ‘Coventry and Brentford fans’ fight in street with glasses thrown and KOed man kicked on floor
THIS is the shocking moment football fans, believed to be Coventry and Brentford, fight in the street.
Footage shows glasses being thrown as a KO’ed man is kicked on the floor outside London Euston train station.

British Transport Police were called to the scene[/caption]
A video circulating on social media shows the large group of men brawling in the street.
The mass confrontation kicked off on Saturday night after both sets of fans were making their way home from different matches.
It started with beers being thrown as the footy fans goaded each other.
One man then leaped forward punching and kicking before backing off as he appeared to be kneed and punched in the head.
As another fan stands in the middle of the scrap he’s punched in the side of the head and knocked to the floor.
Falling flat on his back, members of the public stood in the road help him up.
A man lying helplessly on the floor, who appears to be passed out, is then repeatedly kicked and punched.
The thug responsible then runs off swearing.
Onlookers watched from nearby pubs with some shouting at the group to stop.
The Sun understands the British Transport Police were called to the scene.

Superheroes have been punching each other in their face for decades, and doing that in video games almost as long. Every once in a while, the superhero genre crosses over into the fighting game space, resulting in the likes of the Marvel vs. Capcom series and appreciated jams like Teen Titans: Battle Blitz and X-Men:…

‘Horizon Burning Shores’ launch trailer teases the franchise’s biggest boss fight
Ahead of its April 19th release date, Sony and Guerrilla Games on Friday shared a new trailer for Horizon Forbidden West: Burning Shores. The DLC is set to tell the next chapter of Aloy’s story. The trailer offers a fresh look at the Burning Shores, a volcanic archipelago that was once home to Los Angeles. We also get a closer look at the Metal Devil boss fight that was teased at the end of the announcement trailer Sony and Guerrilla released last year.
That battle is one of the reasons Horizon Forbidden West:Burning Shores won’t be available on PlayStation 4, even though you can play the original game on Sony’s last generation console. “The cityscape ruins of LA and its surroundings are highly detailed and require a lot of processing power as well as fast streaming technology to run properly,” Horizon Forbidden West Game Director Mathijs de Jonge told the PlayStation Blog last month. He went on to add there’s “a particular battle scene that requires a LOT of memory and processing power.”

Million-year-old viruses help fight cancer, say scientists
Scientists have successfully engineered bacteria to fight cancer in mice
Researchers at Stanford Medicine have made a promising discovery that could lead to new cancer treatments in the future. Scientists conducted tests in which they altered the genomes of skin-based microbes and bacteria to fight cancer. These altered microbes were swabbed onto cancer-stricken mice and, lo and behold, tumors began to dissipate.
The bacteria in question, Staphylococcus epidermidis, was grabbed from the fur of mice and altered to produce a protein that stimulates the immune system with regard to specific tumors. The experiment seemed to be a resounding success, with the modified bacteria killing aggressive types of metastatic skin cancer after being gently applied to the fur. The results were also achieved without any noticeable inflammation.
“It seemed almost like magic,” said Michael Fischbach, PhD, an associate professor of bioengineering at Stanford. “These mice had very aggressive tumors growing on their flank, and we gave them a gentle treatment where we simply took a swab of bacteria and rubbed it on the fur of their heads.”
This is yet another foray into the misunderstood world of microbiomes and all of the bacteria that reside there. Gut biomes get all of the press these days, but the skin also plays host to millions upon millions of bacteria, fungi and viruses, and the purpose of these entities is often unknown.
In this instance, scientists found that staph epidermidis cells trigger the production of immune cells called CD8 T cells. The researchers basically hijacked the S. epidermidis into producing CD8 T cells that target specific antigens. In this case, the antigens were related to skin cancer tumors. When the cells encountered a matching tumor, they began to rapidly reproduce and shrink the mass, or extinguish it entirely.
“Watching those tumors disappear — especially at a site distant from where we applied the bacteria — was shocking,” Fischbach said. “It took us a while to believe it was happening.”
As with all burgeoning cancer treatments, there are some heavy caveats. First of all, these experiments are being conducted on mice. Humans and mice are biologically similar in many respects, but a great many treatments that work on mice are a dud with people. Stanford researchers have no idea if S. epidermidis triggers an immune response in humans, though our skin is littered with the stuff, so they may need to find a different microbe to alter. Also, this treatment is designed to treat skin cancer tumors and is applied topically. It remains to be seen if the benefits carry over to internal cancers.
This is a major breakthrough. https://t.co/CgVYcf3lRY

With that said, the Stanford team says they expect human trials to start within the next few years, though more testing is needed on both mice and other animals before going ahead with people. Scientists hope that this treatment could eventually be pointed at all kinds of infectious diseases, in addition to cancer cells.
