That doesn’t mean the Steelers defensive end has forgotten his roots. Heyward’s inspiration to play football came from his late father. Craig “Ironhead” Heyward not only forged an 11-year career (1988-98) as a big-bodied running back. His size and fun-loving personality also helped Hayward become a cult figure whose popularity led to a memorable soap commercial. Although his father died from cancer in 2006 at age 39, Cam Heyward said Wednesday he continues to hear fun stories about “Ironhead” to this day....

Milan head coach Gattuso is reportedly under pressure following a five-match winless streak, with the Serie A side without a goal in their previous four league games. It is Milan’s longest spell without a league goal since 1984 as pressure mounts on Gattuso ahead of Saturday’s visit of SPAL, however, Leonardo dismissed speculation that the 40-year-old boss could be replaced. “We never thought about changing Gattuso,” Leonardo told reporters as Milan sit sixth in the Serie A standings....

Fellaini has struggled for game time since Ole Gunnar Solskjaer replaced Jose Mourinho at Old Trafford, the caretaker boss relying on the Belgium international a lot less than his predecessor. He has only featured for three minutes in the Premier League under the Norwegian and was a second-half substitute in United’s third-round FA Cup victory over Reading. A calf injury has sidelined him since that 2-0 win and it could be his last United appearance after a deal was reportedly struck with Chinese Super League side Shandong Luneng....

Those lyrics in fact come from a rap song by Dr. Dre, whose label is Death Row/Interscope, which is part owned by Time Warner. Interscope is headed by Ted Field, a movie-and-record mogul who hosted Bill Clinton’s big Hollywood fund-raiser last year. “A lot of this [criticism of rap] is just plain old racism,” Field told the Los Angeles Times last month. “You can tell the people who want to stop us from releasing controversial rap music one thing: Kiss my ass....

The Granotas are languishing in the relegation zone with just eight points from 10 games, with Getafe in 11th place with 13 points. Levante’s habit of eking out 1-1 draws continued against Real Valladolid last week, with the Valencians earning their fifth consecutive draw with that scoreline. Vallodolid opened the scoring on the hour mark, but a late penalty from Jose Campana ensured Levante grabbed a point and extended their winless run to eight games....

But the ratings didn’t reflect the enthusiasm, as Newsweek obtained Nielsen Media Research figures that showed he pulled in an audience share of just 4.4—making his week the least watched of all of the guest hosts. Before Burton’s stint, Savannah Guthrie and Dr. Sanjay Gupta held the record with a tied low of 4.7 during one of their two weeks on the show—a figure also shared by Good Morning America’s Robin Roberts during her week at the lectern....

I had brought the two together (at a local hot-dog joint called the Franktuary) because Mike Doyle had taken the audacious step of wondering if his constituent, instead of being dismissed as a Pittsburgh pirate, should be recognized as an artist—and that Congress should explore ways that his work could be legally sanctioned. In a March hearing of the House Telecom Subcommittee, Doyle lauded Gillis and his work, in which snippets from disparate artists fade into and out of a witty collage powered by hip-hop rhythms and rap lyrics....

Then I tested a BookSnap for myself. Short verdict: not a revolution. More a thud than a snap, the device—an ominous three-foot high construction draped with a thick black darkroom-style shade—looks like a Goth puppet theater and weighs 44 pounds. Under the shade is an angled cradle for a book and a glass platen to hold the pages down during scanning. You turn the pages yourself. It costs $1,600, not including the two Canon digital cameras (about $500 each) necessary to capture the page images and send them to your computer, where software transforms the pictures into files that can be read on a screen or an e-book reader....

“I’m not thinking of changing club. I admit it, this summer it could have been a subject for debate but that’s now all finished,” Lewandowski said in an interview with German sports daily Bild. “It’s very likely that I’ll stay here for a long time. I identify totally with Bayern,” added the 30-year-old who joined Bayern in 2014 but who was on the radar of both Real Madrid and Chelsea in the summer....

After a three week break, the Inside Line F1 Podcast is back with their 40th episode of the 2015 F1 season! This season has been about Lewis Hamilton - his wins, losses, social media antics, music and the stuff he’s said. Mithila and Kunal go about listing all that the three time World Champion has said in the last few weeks and all that the others have said about him....

In a statement posted on his social media page, the seven-time world champion wrote that he would “continue fighting” despite the team’s ongoing difficulties and the pain he endured at Baku. He stated: During the 2022 F1 Azerbaijan GP, Lewis Hamilton could be heard complaining over team radio about his car’s violent bouncing on Baku’s extremely long straights and claimed that the constant bouncing was “killing his back”. Following the race, Mercedes team principal Toto Wolff apologized to his driver for having to drive under such conditions and promised quick fixes for the issue....

Enter LG Channels To make the WebOS platform even more efficient, LG has partnered with Xumo to include an additional streaming app feature called LG Channels (formerly LG Channel Plus). Although the Xumo App is an option for some other brands, LG includes it as part of the WebOS core experience for select FHD and UHD 2012-2018 LG LED/LCD or OLED smart TV models running or updated to WebOS 4.0 as well as select 2019 models running WebOS 4....

When the LG G2 was released we judged it to be the best smartphone money can buy, and to this day it sits atop our best smartphone 2014 chart. It has set a huge example for the LG G3 to live up to. Here we compare the specs of the LG G2 and LG G3. Also see our LG G3 hands-on review . LG G2 vs LG G3: Pricing Part of the reason we were so impressed with the LG G2 was that it came on to the market some £150- to £200 cheaper than other flagship smartphones at £399, and yet the specs were just as good as those of its rivals....

This seems to be the era of phablets, with consumers definitely wanting larger screens on their mobile devices. The term was coined thanks to Samsung’s Galaxy Note, a 5.3-inch screen sized device placed somewhere between a phone and a tablet. And now LG has brought out its version of a phablet with the Optimus Vu, a device with a 5-inch display. Powered by a 1.5 GHz quad-core processor and 1GB RAM, and running on Android 4....

It marks a change in strategy for the tech giant, with a mid-ranger that focuses on design and comes with 5G built-in. In many ways, the Velvet is a replacement for the seemingly-discontinued G-series phones, although its focus pulls away from the hardware-first approach we saw in those devices. This faux-flagship instead places a greater emphasis on aesthetics and design, while still impressing with premium features like 5G connectivity and support for LG’s established dual-screen accessories....

NEW DELHI (Reuters) - England’s players are reaping the benefits of being given a licence to thrill, said Jason Roy following the World Twenty20 semi-final victory by seven wickets against New Zealand on Wednesday. After the bowlers restricted the Kiwis to a below-par 153 for eight, Roy’s belligerent 78 helped the 2010 champions romp home with 17 balls to spare. England’s new-found aggression was evident in the way Eoin Morgan’s side began and ended their run chase at the Feroz Shah Kotla Stadium....

Lieberman initially ran for reelection as a Democrat but lost in the primary to now-Governor Ned Lamont, the more left-leaning of the two candidates who, unlike Lieberman, opposed the Iraq War. The night of his failed primary bid, Lieberman received a call from Karl Rove, who was serving as the top strategist for Bush at the time, according to the AP. In his book The Centrist Solution, which will be released Tuesday, Lieberman wrote that Rove used the call to offer his aid in the Connecticut Senate race, the Hartford Courant reported....
