Ferguson raised his arm as if to throw a punch and Chandler hit him with a devastating front kick to the face. Chandler looked… Source link

Tony Fadell is one of the most important figures in Apple’s (AAPL) history. As the creator of the iPod, he helped turn the struggling company’s fortunes around. And as the co-creator of the iPhone, he can take (at least some) credit for Apple becoming a company with a market cap of more than $2.5 trillion. But Fadell wasn’t sure he wanted to join up with Apple when he pitched the idea for the iPod. “Apple was a very, very different company back then,” Fadell told Yahoo Finance. “A… Source link

Steven Adams went all out to protect his point guard on Monday afternoon. Adams, late in the Memphis Grizzlies’ 119-106 win over the Chicago Bulls at FedExForum, actually picked up Bulls center Tony Bradley and carried him away from Ja Morant after the two got into an altercation. Though Adams is a large man himself, he seemed to have zero issue whatsoever carrying the 6-foot-10, 248-pound Bradley. Bradley was given a flagrant foul on the play, as he appeared to trip up Morant as he drove… Source link

The titanic, albeit controversial legacy of late Apple (AAPL) co-founder Steve Jobs drew renewed interest this week when the tech giant became the first company to reach a market capitalization of $3 trillion. The feat owes in no small part to the development of the iPod and iPhone — both overseen by Jobs — which shaped the behavior of billions of people across the globe in how they listen to music and connect with loved ones.

You can never have too many friends. You can never have too much pizza. You can never have too many guitars. You can never have enough pitching, either. That goes for real-life baseball and the fake-stat-grab baseball we love so much. So count me in on Dodgers right-hander Tony Gonsolin, with a high level of excitement. He’s coming back from a shoulder injury and has been fine in three short rehab outings (10.1 IP, 6 H, 4 ER, 3 BB, 9 K). The real selling point is what he’s done in 86.2… Source link
