This is a carousel. Use Next and Previous buttons to navigate 3 Houston Rockets head coach Stephen Silas was posed a simple question as he met with the media following Tuesday's practice at the Toyota Center. Silas was asked to identify what is separating the rebuilds in Houston and Oklahoma City at the moment before the two squads face off Wednesday evening. As the Rockets enter Wednesday night firmly in the Western Conference cellar, the Thunder find themselves in the thick of the playoff hunt, far away from the race to the bottom of the lottery in hopes of landing Victor Wembanyama . Silas highlighted one major reason why Oklahoma City has been able to kickstart its rebuild following All-Star departures across the last half-decade. "They have a really good player who could be a top-10 player in the league," Silas said in reference to Thunder guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. "Early, he helped them win some games to where their … [Read more...] about The one major difference in Houston Rockets, Thunder rebuild efforts

The upcoming season is set to mark the start of an exciting new era for the University of Houston football team, as the Cougars head to the Big 12 after years as one of the nation's top Group of Five programs. But on Wednesday, it was the team's recruiting efforts that stirred a buzz among the UH faithful. As the late National Signing Day unfolded across the college football landscape, Houston secured a committment from one of the highest-ranked signees in program history. Mikal Harrison-Pilot, a four-star prospect out of Temple High School (Texas) who is listed by recruiting services as an athlete but is expected to be a receiver at UH, signed his national letter of intent to play for the Cougars on Wednesday. Harrison-Pilot is Houston's highest-ranked commit of the 2023 class, and according to 247Sports , he is the team's fourth-highest ranked signee of the recruiting service era. He sits behind only Ed Oliver (2016), Deontay Greenberry (2012) and Tren'Davian Dickson … [Read more...] about Houston football makes history with National Signing Day pickup

Listen to this article Kirkwood won 31 of his 50 races on the Road To Indy, and was champion in USF2000, Indy Pro 2000 and Indy Lights. But when the Michael Andretti/Sauber F1 deal fell apart at the 11 th hour in 2021, Colton Herta’s planned move to Formula 1 was stymied, he remained in IndyCar, and so Andretti had no room for Kirkwood, his Indy Lights champion. Instead, the talented youngster spent his rookie season at AJ Foyt Racing, where he showed he had giant-killing potential, but endured way too many incidents. However, Andretti signed him as a replacement for the McLaren-bound Alexander Rossi, and Kirkwood is expected to shine, even alongside established talents such as Colton Herta and Romain Grosjean. “I've got kind of a reference of what the Andretti Autosport car is already like – I did three days in the car preseason to 2022,” Kirkwood said. “It's kind of funny because in 2022, the entire year I was trying to mimic what the Andretti car was like, and I feel … [Read more...] about Kirkwood admits he overdrove as a rookie, set to make amends

According to data compiled by Redfin, the Bayou City was sixth in the nation for the number of million dollar homes sold during the third quarter, trailing only California's metropolises and Chicago. And this year, the price tag on the top 10 most expensive homes also raised the bar from 2013. Since Texas is a non-disclosure state, the exact sale prices are kept private, but the Houston Association of Realtors provided the list prices of the homes.

Even before a single lap has been run in the 2023 Formula 1 season, never mind a race result decided, Ferrari team boss Fred Vasseur has twice been asked to pin his colours to the mast – Charles Leclerc or Carlos Sainz. He went with neither, adamant it’s too early to back one driver over the other. “But,” he wrapped up the first time around, “if at one stage we have to take action, I will take action.” The second time, he ended with “and if at one stage I have to take action for Carlos or for Charles, I will do it.” It’s an action that, should it come, will have long-term consequences. Team-mates at Ferrari for the first time in 2021 it was widely-speculated that Leclerc could have the measure of Sainz, but that wasn’t to be with the Spaniard winning the first round – although only by 5.5 points. However, that was a season in which Ferrari were still trying to get their horse (powers) into order in the wake of their 2019 engine scandal. Once they’d sorted that out, … [Read more...] about Ferrari need to pick Charles Leclerc as No.1 driver, or risk losing him to a rival team

Arguably one of the most stylish SUVs available, the Range Rover Velar is getting subtle exterior changes for the 2024 model year. Land Rover's designers have not fiddled with the styling too much as the luxury vehicle largely retains the sleek styling of the pre-facelift version. Updated headlights have jewel-like daytime running lights and flank a discreetly revised front grille. At the rear, the bumper's lower part has been mildly updated. Bigger changes have occurred inside the cabin where the 2024 Velar uses Land Rover's swanky 11.4-inch infotainment with a "floating" curved glass touchscreen. This hardware change brings it in line with the Range Rover and Range Rover Sport , allowing users to access 80 percent of the available functions with just two taps of the home screen. 2024 Range Rover Velar 35 Photos Pivi Pro can accept over-the-air updates and … [Read more...] about 2024 Range Rover Velar Debuts With New Infotainment, Starts At $61,500

LOS ANGELES -- Reaching beyond the grave, and The Twilight Zone , to hype one of its hits for this month's ratings "sweep," NBC has enlisted the late Rod Serling to introduce a 3-D episode of its supernatural drama Medium . The Nov. 21 broadcast of Medium , starring Patricia Arquette as a psychic crime-solver, will feature several spooky three-dimensional effects, and the network is distributing millions of 3-D glasses, most of them through TV Guide magazine, ahead of the episode. The most novel element of the broadcast for those viewers without glasses, perhaps, will be the 45-second opening sequence in which Sterling is "reanimated" by altering a film clip from The Twilight Zone , the often-creepy sci-fi anthology he hosted on CBS during the 1960s. "He basically explains to people about the glasses, when to put them on, and reassures people who don't have them that they'll be able to enjoy the episode," Executive Producer Glenn Gordon Caron said Wednesday. … [Read more...] about Medium gets help from Twilight Zone for 3-D episode

Toto Wolff was not expecting James Vowles to hand in his resignation, but says being a team boss was always a “goal” for the former Mercedes’ chief strategist. Last season Mattia Binotto kicked off a round of silly season moves for F1’s team management, the Italian tendering his resignation. Shortly after Williams announced CEO Jost Capito was out while McLaren revealed Andreas Seidl would be heading to Sauber to replace the Ferrari-bound Fred Vasseur. The only question left to be answered was who would replace Capito at Williams. That turned out to be Vowles. Williams announced mid-January that the Mercedes’ chief strategist would take up the reins on February 20, Vowles bringing to an end his career in Brackley which began in the BAR/Honda days. Wolff wasn’t expecting that.

Beginning Wednesday, Feb. 1, the City of Houston will require all dog and cat owners to microchip their pets . City officials say the microchips will help the city return lost pets to their owners and register them. Houston City Council passed an ordinance in 2022 to require any resident in the city that owns a dog or a cat at least four months old to be microchipped and vaccinated against rabies. The year-long grace period ends Wednesday as the law goes into effect. Houston Mayor Sylvester Turner reminded residents in a Houston City Council meeting on Wednesday morning. "Please get your pets chipped, and let's move forward," Turner said. In an interview with KHOU 11 , BARC Deputy Director Cory Stottlemeyer said the microchip is to help pet owners and city officials find pets in case they're lost. "You could be the best pet owner in the world, but when a stressful situation happens, anything, anything can happen," Stottlemeyer told KHOU.
