All the Olympic live events in Tokyo will be barred from having spectators as per Tokyo Governor Yuriko Koike’s latest announcement that all the spectators will not be allowed to spectate this year’s Olympics and Paralympics.
Further on, Tokyo Governor also announced that some of the Olympics venues will now be used for COVID-19 vaccination centres for the general public.
This announcement has been made just a month prior to the beginning of this year’s Olympics set to be held in Tokyo.
The Prime Minister of Japan Yoshihide Suga had previously allowed the audience to spectate the Olympics despite experts suggesting otherwise other than that COVID-19 experts, organisers and officials are still debating regarding allowance of audience in the Tokyo Olympics.
Expert’s view on the safest way to conduct this year’s Olympics is to banish the spectators from coming to see the events in order to keep the COVID cases in control.
Further on, If foreign players coming to Tokyo to participate in this year’s Olympics are found breaching the preset COVID-19 they will be kicked out of the tournament as stated in the playbook stating ;“There may be consequences imposed upon you in the event of a breach of these measures including procedures for revocation of your permit of stay in Japan.”
Christophe Dubi, the International Olympic Committee’s executive director stated “What is in the playbook is a range, a range of possibilities. This is to give an overall impression of what could happen in case of sanctions,” he said. “We will not speculate which case will lead to what sanction. This is the role of the commission.”
The second matchday of Group F in the Euros saw Germany take on Portugal. The designated away team won the match 4-2, and two of their goals were own goals from the Portugal defense. Ruben Dias scored the first, followed by Raphael Guerreiro shortly after to give Germany the lead, after they were one goal down.
Some very unlikely history has been made in the process. Firstly, Germany have become the only team in the history of the European Championships to both concede and benefit from own goals in the same tournament.

Portugal are the only nation in the history of the major international tournaments to concede two own goals in the same match. And lastly, the 2020 Euros now hold the record for the most own goals conceded with 5. The previous record was at 3.
Guerreiro scored in the previous Portugal match against Hungary, and on the next matchday (yesterday) proceeded to knock the ball into his own net.

The footballing world was curious to see which player wins the race for the Golden Boot in the Euros. But, as it turns out, own goals are now a staple in the tournament. And the best part about it is that we’re not even done with the group stages.
The race for the knockout stages is drawing to an end as teams get set to play their third and final group stage games. In the designated group of death, Portugal face off against France while Germany take on Hungary on the final matchday.
With a defeat in the opening game against Slovakia, Poland were in desperate need of something substantial against Spain. Same was the case with La Roja; their opening fixture against Sweden ended in a goalless draw. This meant that both the sides looked for a win on the night, however, ended up sharing points.
⏰ RESULT ⏰
🇪🇸🆚🇵🇱 Spain and Poland share the points in Seville
⚽️ Morata scores his 20th goal for La Roja 👏 Lewandowski heads Poland level 🚫 Gerard Moreno hits post with penalty
Luis Enrique fielded a 4-3-3 with Jordi Alba as the skipper. Pedri and Koke were accompanied by Rodri in midfield, while the front line consisted of Dani Olmo, Alvaro Morata, and Gerard Moreno. The Juventus striker faced a blaze of criticism after failing to convert in the previous match. This time around, he did his starting spot some justice by scoring after making an intelligent blindsided run from Moreno’s pass. Spain had 76 percent of the possession, considering which, it is safe to state that they were inefficient in making optimal use of the ball to get the much-needed goals.
Poland lined up in a 3-5-2 on the night, with their captain carrying the responsibility of scoring the crucial goal, after failing to register himself on the score-sheet against Slovakia. Paulo Sousa’s side struggled to hold on to the ball for most parts, but brought impact in terms of their defensive display. The all-important goal came in through a towering Lewandowski header in the second half. The Bayern Munich striker beat Manchester City’s Aymeric Laporte in the aerial battle after his effort from close range was denied earlier in the game.
The clash promised drama, and didn’t fail to deliver from that standpoint. Moments after Poland’s equalizer, Spain were awarded a penalty, which was missed by Moreno as he couldn’t beat the woodwork. Morata met the rebound, but to no avail. Apart from the chance that the hosts created for the opener, they failed to subsequently threaten the opposition.
Poland face Sweden next with just a point in hand. The group leaders already have four points, and look in a comfortable spot. However, a loss might jeopardize their cause. Meanwhile, Spain, who are with two points in the 3rd spot, play Slovakia in the next fixture. A win would see them qualify to the knockout stages, same being the case for Poland.

Razer announced the first AMD powered gaming laptop in the world just a few days ago, however, using NVIDIA RTX 30-series mobile GPUs as a discrete option. It is one of the thinnest 14-inch gaming notebook with soo much horsepower stuffed inside it, and the colour-accurate display makes it usable for content creators.
The new Razer Blade 14 with new AMD Ryzen processors has a starting price of $1,799 while using the beastly AMD Ryzen 9 5900HX chip on all of the variants and up to NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 on the GPU front. Get to know all of its specs from here.
However, thanks to @TUM_APISAK, we have a new leak that suggests Razer will also go all-AMD like other OEMs. Well, this could really excite fans because this means Razer will be using all the exclusive AMD benefits like SmartShift, Smart Access Memory and all the features included in AMD Advantage Program.
The laptop has been spotted on Puget systems benchmark, and we see the all-AMD Razer Blade 14 using the same flagship AMD Ryzen 9 5900HX with 8 cores and 16 threads along with a healthy Radeon RX 6600M GPU, which is the first Navi 23 GPU.
So, like the NVIDIA GPU-powered models, this one will sport 16GB RAM, Windows 10 pro and maybe the standard 1TB SSD we saw on all those models. However, the interesting proposition being Razer going all-AMD for the first time, and gamers can expect more options than ever.
It will be interesting to see if Razer uses the other Radeon RX 6000M series GPUs like RX 6700M or RX 6800M and make an entire lineup or just launch this only variant. Also, expect Razer to cost less these models than the NVIDIA powered ones maybe finally hit the $1500 price mark.

Rare is also developing a new IP called Everwild, but there was nothing about this new IP at E3. According to VGC, that might be due to how it was said to have been rebooted recently. A Pirate’s Life is going to release on June 22 as a free expansion to Sea of Thieves on PC and console.

June 19th, 2021 Mumbai, India – Colorful Technology Company Limited, a professional manufacturer of graphics cards, motherboards, all-in-one gaming and multimedia solutions, and high-performance storage, is thrilled to announce the launch of its limited-edition variant of the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 graphics card – the iGame GeForce RTX 3090 KUDAN. COLORFUL will only produce 1000 units of the graphics card.
It comes with the brand’s most advanced premium features to deliver excellent cooling for extreme performance. The KUDAN’s hybrid cooling thermal design is a perfect balance of air cooling and liquid cooling, enabling the KUDAN to reach extreme overclocks with superb stability. In addition, the KUDAN comes with COLORFUL’s signature One-Key OC delivering extreme performance in a switch of a button, pushing boost clocks to 1860MHz.
The iGame GeForce RTX 3090 KUDAN sports a black and gray color theme on its precision CNC machined aluminum alloy shroud and backplate. The KUDAN features intricate patterns along with the iconic Golden Gears and gold accents to complete its luxurious look – styling that’s fitting for a king. The KUDAN also features an LCD display and vibrant RGB lighting elements on the graphics card and radiator.
The KUDAN: The Masterpiece
Crafted to be COLORFUL’s masterpiece, the limited-edition iGame GeForce RTX 3090 KUDAN features a combination of advanced processing and intricate designs. To create the intricate patterns on the aluminum alloy components, COLORFUL used precision CNC technology with controlled accuracy within 0.3mm.
The KUDAN is packed with a plethora of gaming-oriented features and premium components including a fully customizable 60Hz display panel that can be used for real-time monitoring. The display can be flipped 90° allowing it to be visible even in vertical graphics card mounting orientation. The RTX 3090 KUDAN also has customizable RGB lighting on the shroud’s visible side and backplate. The radiator’s RGB lighting is powered by Modern Light Technology with a mirror-like surface that gives a sophisticated infinity lighting effect.
COLORFUL incorporated leading technologies used in the Advanced Series and Neptune Series for its hybrid cooling design. For the latest KUDAN graphics card, COLORFUL enlisted Stäubli International, a Swiss manufacturer of high-quality liquid connectors and couplings, for its quick-release mechanism. The thermal design consists of the triple-fan heatsink and a high-performance 240mm radiator delivering the best hybrid cooling for maximum heat dissipation.
Hybrid Cooling Thermal Design
The iGame GeForce RTX 3090 KUDAN has a hybrid cooling system that has both air-cooling and water-cooling systems. The RTX 3090 KUDAN’s air cooling system features a triple-fan heatsink with six 6mm high-performance heat pipes. It uses COLORFUL’s newly developed “Storm Chaser” 90mm fans with fixed-rotating fan blades. The heatsink features the iGame Vacuum Copper Plate Technology – a signature of the Advanced Series graphics cards. The air-cooling system delivers efficient heat dissipation on its own.
The RTX 3090 KUDAN also has a liquid cooling system with a nine-stage water block and a high-performance 240mm radiator. The water block and integrated heat sink use the Breathe-Gill Technology used in the Neptune Series graphics cards. It features a much denser water lane structure and a stronger cooling performance.
Just like its predecessors, the iGame GeForce RTX 3090 KUDAN uses quick-release fittings for easy mounting and dismounting of the radiator-pump unit. The RTX 3090 KUDAN uses Swiss-made high-quality fittings designed by Stäubli which can be rotated 360° for easy installation and troubleshooting.
