The claim: “I’m worried: my 13-year-old grandson is into violent video games like Fortnite, and he plays them for several hours a day on the weekends. Studies have shown that young people’s brains can be reshaped by various stimuli. So I wonder: can these violent video games alter, in a negative and permanent way, the behavior? asks Jean Lavallée, from Saint-Augustin-de-Desmaures.

DETROIT –
It is not clear if Marcus Ericsson managed to clean his suit from the milk stains with which he celebrated victory in the Indianapolis 500. But there’s already a new challenge, in an IndyCar season gone haywire.
The Swede is the new points leader, free agency has accelerated at a dizzying pace and the reigning champion of the category said his name was mistaken in rumors regarding a possible move.
Also, this will be the last race at Belle Isle.
Ericsson returned to the temporary street circuit looking to retain his first IndyCar win and take control of the title hunt.
Duck O’Ward has other plans. The Mexican also returns to the Detroit Grand Prix, where he got his first win, now with the mission of repeating and unseating Ericsson from the lead.
Belle Isle has hosted a doubleheader the past eight years, with Ericsson winning the Saturday race last season. O’Ward was victorious on Sunday.
Now there is only one race, Sunday. And he will mark the last time he cums on Belle Isle.
The Detroit Grand Prix will move to a downtown street circuit from next year.
So it’s hardly fitting that the Indianapolis 500 hangover has lasted barely a week and that the IndyCar drama resumes fast, with the farewell to Belle Isle.
And you have to remember: There are still 11 races left on a calendar that ends on September 11.
The ink is barely dry on O’Ward’s contract extension with Arrow McLaren SP and the Monterrey driver is already thinking big. He took his foot off the gas on the final lap of Indianapolis as he challenged Ericsson.
And on Friday, he still believed that decision was correct.
He believes that he would not have completed the pass that gave him the victory. Instead, he was at high risk of crashing, which was inexcusable in a race that awarded double points.
Ericsson moved from eighth to first in the championship with the victory, while O’Ward moved from seventh to second and is 13 points off the top.
“I made the right decision 100 percent,” O’Ward said Friday. “I just don’t think playing the hero will help win a championship. I think I might have taken a big hit in the championship fight and it just wasn’t worth it.”
Other pilots disagreed. Reigning IndyCar champion Alex Palou insisted that he would have gone for the win no matter the risks.
By the way, Spaniard Palou said on Friday that he liked being part of the rumours. However, he ruled out that he will move from Ganassi to McLaren.

Russia cannot be humiliated, because sooner or later countries will have to cooperate with it. This was stated by French President Emmanuel Macron in an interview with AFP.
“You can’t humiliate Russia. When hostilities stop one day, we will be able to pave the way to a way out of the crisis through diplomacy,” TASS reports Emmanuel Macron. In his opinion, it is France that will become an intermediary between Russia and other states when cooperation is restored.
The EU countries, as well as the USA, Canada, Japan and a number of other states have introduced tough sanctions because of the Russian special operation in Ukraine. Sanctions pressure on Russia has been ongoing since the early 2000s and has escalated in recent months. Russian President Vladimir Putin stated that their goal was the abolition of Russia, as well as the prohibition of its culture, a taboo on the truth regarding the history of Russia.

Kamukh: Enough stubbornness, O Crescent, bear the consequences of your mistake
The famous journalist explained, during his statements to the 24 Saudi Sports Channel, that Al-Nasr did not commit any violation in his negotiations and contract with Kno, and that Al-Hilal was the wrong party because he initially refused Kno’s requests to renew his contract, but retracted his opinion following the player signed Al-Nasr and discovered how much his opponent benefited from that deal and loss. which he will incur.
He added, “We all know that Muhammad Kno was the one who signed and stamped his hand, and we all know that all the contractual measures taken by Al-Nasr were completely regular and that the club did not commit a single violation that gives Al Hilal a loophole to spoil the deal.”
He continued, “Perseverance is something that does not befit the principles of Al Hilal. Al Hilal is a club that makes mistakes and will not be better than Chelsea, Atletico Madrid and Borussia Dortmund, and all of them were deprived of restrictions for a while. Whoever errs should bear the consequences of this mistake, not stubbornness once morest him, criminalizing everyone and trying to link the matter to Kno’s brother.”
“Al-Hilal saw that he made a mistake in not renewing Al-Hilal’s contract and following that he realized that the player was a loss for him and a gain for the victory, and he was ready to pay the price of renewing the player’s contract following knowing that he had signed for Al-Nasr, and I confirm once more that the Sports Arbitration Center will confirm the decisions of the Dispute Resolution Chamber, because there is no white paper and there is no For mistakes in the contract of victory, but victory is right to demand the full amount, which is 34.5 million Saudi riyals.”

What are the decisions of the Saudi Football Association regarding the Kno case?
The Dispute Resolution Chamber of the Saudi Football Federation clarified that Kanoo terminated his signed contract with Al-Nasr on the third of last January without any legitimate reason, and decided to stop it for a period of 4 months and prevent Al Hilal from registering new players during the next two transfer periods.
The committee obligated the player and Al-Hilal to jointly pay a financial compensation to Al-Nasr of 27 million Saudi riyals, which is 7.5 million riyals, the value of the amount received by the player when submitting the contract, and 19.5 million riyals the value of his contract with Al-Alam.
The two clubs appealed the decision, with Al Hilal asking to cancel the decisions in full and to reconsider the case, while Al-Nasr seeks compensation of 34 million Saudi riyals and 27 million.
