Manchester United travel to relegated Huddersfield Town on Sunday afternoon with both sides looking to arrest poor runs of form. United are without a victory in three Premier League games while Huddersfield have lost their last nine matches in a row. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side know they must take all three points at the John Smith's Stadium if they are to have any chance of finishing in the Champions League places, with the Red Devils currently three points behind Chelsea in fourth. Huddersfield , meanwhile, are looking to give their fans something to cheer in their final home game in the top flight for at least a season, following their relegation to the Championship. Check out 90min's preview for the clash below. Where to Watch When Is Kick Off?  Sunday 5 May What Time Is Kick Off?  14:00 (BST) Where Is it Being Played?  John Smith's Stadium TV Channel/Live Stream?  Sky Sports Premier League Referee? Lee Mason Team News Huddersfield boss Jan Siewert is waiting on fitness updates from four members of his playing staff, all of whom were missing for their 5-0 defeat away at Liverpool last Friday. Aaron Mooy (hip), Ben Hamer (unspecified knock), Laurent Depoitre (foot) and Phillip Billing (back) are all set for late fitness tests to see if they can make a return to the matchday squad, while right back Florent Hadergjonaj is fit and able to return to the 18. For United , Eric Bailly is set to be replaced by Chris Smalling in the heart of the defence after he picked up a season-ending knee injury last week, but the Englishman himself is a doubt. Juan Mata is set to keep his place in the side after scoring against Chelsea and Marcus Rashford is expected to be fit despite being forced off during the second half of Sunday's game. The United boss is expected to keep David de Gea in goal despite his recent mistakes costing his side in both the Premier League and Champions League, despite many fans calling for him to be replaced. Predicted Lineups Huddersfield Town Lossl; Smith, Schindler, Kongolo, Durm; Kachunga, Hogg, Stankovic, Bacuna, Mbenza; Grant . Manchester United De Gea; Young, Smalling, Lindelof, Shaw; Herrera, McTominay, Pogba; Mata; Rashford, Sanchez. Head to Head Record The two sides have faced each other 49 times in their history with United coming out on top on 23 occasions. Huddersfield have picked up 11 victories and there have been 15 draws. It was United who picked up the three points in the reverse fixture this season, with Paul Pogba scoring twice in a 3-1 win. The Terriers recorded a memorable victory in this fixture last season, Aaron Mooy and Laurent Depoitre both netting. Recent Form Both sides are in dreadful form, with only one victory between them in their last ten league matches. Huddersfield have lost their last nine on the bounce and have scored just twice in the last five games. In those same five games, they have conceded 17 goals. Things are not much better for the visitors with United losing three of their last five and only getting one win in that time. The Red Devils have not won in three in a run which looks to have cost them a place in next season's Champions League. Here's how each side has fared in their last five games:  Huddersfield Town Manchester United Liverpool 5-0 Huddersfield (26/4) Manchester United 1-1 Chelsea (28/4) Huddersfield 1-2 Watford (20/4) Man United 0-2 Manchester City (24/4) Tottenham 4-0 Huddersfield (13/4) Everton 4-0 Manchester United (21/4) Huddersfield 1-4 Leicester City (6/4) Barcelona 3-0 Manchester United (16/4) Crystal Palace 2-0 Huddersfield (30/3) Manchester United 2-1 West Ham (13/4) Prediction United know they must take all three points if they are to have any chance of catching the teams above them and they could not have picked a better side to face in those circumstances. Huddersfield have won just twice at home all season, only scoring nine goals in that time and, despite all the problems currently engulfing the away side, United should have too much for the hosts. Prediction: Huddersfield Town 0-2 Manchester United


FORT WORTH, Texas   Trey Mullinax is off to one of his best starts this season on the PGA Tour following opening rounds of 67-69 at the Charles Schwab Challenge, but it's hardly been a stress-free week. On the last hole of Wednesday's pro-am Mullinax was hit by a wayward shot from one of his amateur partners. "Kind of caught a beamer to the back of the head. A little toe shank, I guess," he laughed on Friday. Full-field scores from the Charles Schwab Challenge Charles Schwab Challenge: Articles, photos and videos Mullinax was taken to a local hospital on Wednesday for a CT scan and was diagnosed with a mild concussion. The third-year Tour player said he struggled with headaches during Thursday's first round but felt better on Day 2. Despite his less-than-ideal start to the week, Mullinax is tied for 10 th place at Colonial and he said the injury allowed him to focus on something other than golf. "Might've knocked some sense into me, to be honest," he laughed. "My wife always says I have a hard head. Kind of took my mind off golf a little bit, to be honest with you."

The Broncos are giving Jake Butt an easy workload as he works back from a torn ACL. The tight end did not practice Sunday or Monday and the entire team has off Tuesday, so Butt gets three days of rest. Denver also held out offensive lineman Ron Leary (Achilles) and wide receiver Juwann Winfree (leg) from practice Monday. Coach Vic Fangio indicated that both players sat out as a precaution. The team is also being cautious with linebacker Justin Hollins (hamstring). Elsewhere on the injury front, wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders is making progress in his recovery from an Achilles injury. "It's a slow but sure process," coach Vic Fangio said after practice Sunday. "He's out here working early in practice with guys. They take him in and do some more cardio with him. That way he doesn't have to pound on the ground. "Everything is good so far with him. He's where we're expecting him to be and even a little bit more." There's been no update yet on offensive guard Chaz Green, who was carted off the practice field Monday. We will post an update about Green when we learn more about the severity of his apparent injury. Story update : Green will be fine after having a "bout of heat/hydration," according to KUSA-TV's Mike Klis . That's great news!

The Chargers only snagged a pair of likely starters with their seven selections in this year's draft. It's not that they were trying to steer away from that, but it just goes to show how deep the roster already is. But even though they didn't grab more probable instant impact players, those will still have their chance to contribute next season. With that, we decided to predict how the rookies' first season as a professional will pan out. There's no formula for these projections since we don't exactly know, but it's just a fun exercise to get a glimpse on what we believe will happen. Offensive linemen and undrafted free agents will be excluded from this. DT Jerry Tillery 31 tackles, 6.5 TFLs, 4.0 sacks, 1.0 FF Tillery will likely enter Week 1 as the team's starting three-technique, assuming that his shoulder is 100 percent. He will be rotated in and out with Justin Jones, Damion Square and Cortez Broughton, but he should receive the majority of the snaps. He will need to work on playing with a lower base, but his long frame, athletic movement skills and strong upper body and hands should be a problem for interior offensive linemen in Year 1. FS Nasir Adderley 68 tackles, 6.0 PBU, 3 INT, 1.0 TFL There's no doubt that Adderley will receive a lot of snaps right out the gate as the team's starting free safety. He will see the majority of his playing time from the single-high role, but he has the ability to be brought down and placed near the line of scrimmage. The combination of the Chargers' pass rush and his play speed and ball skills, he should flourish in his first season. LB Drue Tranquill 19 tackles, 1 FR Tranquill's playing time in his first year is a bit of an unknown. The former Notre Dame product will start out low on the depth chart with the position being deep, especially after the signing of Thomas Davis. Nonetheless, Tranquill will earn his money as a special teams ace and could earn more playing time later on in the season, barring any injuries. QB Easton Stick N/A Stick will unlikely see the field in regular season action, as he will be the No. 3 option on the depth chart. Many have speculated that he will be used in a Taysom Hill role where he can use his athleticism, but I firmly believe that they will not take that approach with him and he will not take a snap in 2019. LB Emeke Egbule 21 tackles, 1.0 sack Egbule will serve as the backup to Uchenna Nwosu as the team's Sam linebacker. Like Tranquill, he will see the majority of his action as a special teamer but I believe the Chargers will line him up as an additional pass rusher every once in awhile where he possesses a quick first step and wins on stunts and loops to get to the quarterback. DT Cortez Broughton 22 tackles, 2.5 TFLs, 1.5 sacks We've mentioned how Broughton could go down as the steal of this year's draft class. Given the fact that he's 24 years of age, has the experience and is coming off the best season yet after being placed on the defensive line where he suits best (three-technique), the best is yet to come and it could be as soon as his first season. He will likely serve as a rotational interior defender, but I expect him to make the most of them where he will win with his upfield quickness and heavy hands to make his presence known in the backfield.

Oneonta, N.Y.  At Valley View Elementary School in Oneonta, New York, a third grade class was feeling more than a little frustrated when they discovered a problem in a math workbook. It said "Christopher Columbus landed in America." "America," they said, refers to what is now the United States of America. "They immediately protested because they knew that Columbus didn't land in the United States of America, he landed in the Caribbean islands," said teacher Ken Sider. So they voted to send a letter to the publisher asking that the wording be changed. "This was student-led. This was entirely their idea," Sider said. Over several months, they sent three letters but got only form letters in return. They felt they were being ignored because they were kids. But they are kids who refused to give up. They created a petition online and got 1,285 signatures. That got publisher Houghton Mifflin Harcourt's attention, which soon informed them that the next edition of the textbook would say "Christopher Columbus landed in the Caribbean." The company commended the students for their critical thinking and the students were elated. "I think if you're a kid, just keep pushing to do something incredible," said Landon, a third grader. "If it's hard, just keep pushing, keep pushing and if somebody says you can't do it, just prove them wrong."


Creating your ideal sports car using an online configurator has become even more realistic with a new smartphone app from Porsche. The AR Visualizer App allows a three-dimensional photorealistic image of your perfect Porsche to be generated right before your eyes. It means you could envisage how it looks parked outside your home, or even inside your living room. All the app needs is a flat surface to create the 3D image. Dream machines The new app includes all the features found in the regular Porsche configurator, which is offered through the company's website. This means endless debates about which paint choice is the best, or trying to work out exactly which set of alloy wheels your Stuttgart dream machine must have. Customers can still make use of the usual website-based configurator, but then send their completed car to the app for the full augmented reality effect. X-Ray specs As an added bonus, the AR app also includes a new 'highlight' feature. This creates an X-ray-style cutout view of the selected car, showing users exactly where key technical details are hidden. It means future 911 owners can prove the latest sports car from Zuffenhausen is still very much rear-engined. At present, the AR app can be used with the latest 911 Carrera S and 4S, along with the Mission-E concept car. The latter will be replaced with the finished production version of all-electric Taycan once it is revealed. There's an app for that Porsche also promises to have the entire model range available for use with the app by the end of 2019, meaning Macan and Cayenne customers will have to wait a little longer. Available to download for both Apple iOS and Android devices now, the augmented reality app is the latest in a series of smartphone offerings from Porsche. Last year, the company launched the Porsche Charging Services app, aimed at helping drivers of plug-in hybrid or fully-electric cars find charging points. Earlier this year, Porsche also revealed a vehicle rental smartphone app, offering access to a subscription service in partnership with tech company, Cluno.

As we detailed earlier this week , free agency rumors and speculation haven't followed Klay Thompson around this season in the same way they've followed teammate Kevin Durant . That discrepancy can be attributed in large part to a widespread belief around the league that Durant will leave the Warriors, while Thompson has long been expected to re-sign. In a story from ESPN's Nick Friedell this week, Golden State head coach Steve Kerr confirmed that there's significant mutual interest between Thompson and the Warriors in a new deal. "I know that everybody   coaches, management, ownership   everybody wants Klay back," Kerr said. "I think the feeling is just: Klay wants to be here, we want Klay." Still, while the Warriors remain the strong front-runners to retain the veteran sharpshooter, there's a "very real temperature-taking process happening behind the scenes right now," according to Sam Amick of The Athletic . Thompson has long been content to play second or third fiddle behind Stephen Curry and   since 2016   Durant, but he'll want to be compensated for his All-Star play in the "kind of way that he believes he deserves," writes Amick. A source with knowledge of the situation tells Amick that Klay will be seeking a five-year, maximum salary contract from the Warriors, and the team would risk having him test the free agency waters if it isn't willing to put that offer on the table this July. Amick makes it clear that there's no indication the Warriors aren't ready to make that sort of offer, or that Thompson would definitely leave if they don't. Amick's source also adamantly denied a report that Thompson has grown at all discontent with the franchise. In other words, a long-term union between the two sides continues to look like the most probable outcome. Still, with several significant contract situations to address this summer   including trying to re-sign Durant and perhaps extending Draymond Green   the Warriors will want to make sure to give their negotiations with Thompson the attention they deserve.

Former Special Counsel Robert Mueller's agreement to testify before Congress, as many Democrats have urged, will "blow up in their face," Sen. Lindsey Graham charged on Tuesday night. Graham said in an appearance on " Hannity " that Mueller's testimony won't change from what was documented in his report on the Russia investigation . "Bottom line is, after all of your looking and all the time you had and all the money you spent, did Trump collude with the Russians? No - Do you stand by your report? - Yes," Graham said, envisioning questions the special counsel likely will be asked. "It is 'case-closed' for me. They can do anything they want to in the House, and I think it will blow up in their face. "It will blow up in their face. This will blow up in their face. The conclusions can't change, there is no collusion, that's what the whole thing was about to begin with." The Senate Judiciary Committee chairman added that the facts of the case will show President Trump did not restrict Mueller's investigation. "The president gave 1.4 million documents to Mueller. [Don] McGahn, his lawyer, testified for 30 hours," he said. "He made everybody available to Mueller that Mueller wanted to talk to, and he... answered questions in writing, so this president did nothing to stop Mueller from finding the truth." Graham said regardless of Mueller's testimony, it would be hard to prosecute Trump for obstruction of justice. "There's nobody on Earth who could bring an obstruction case based on these facts," he said. Mueller has agreed to testify before the House Judiciary and Intelligence Committees on July 17, according to the panels' chairmen, Jerry Nadler, D-N.Y., and Adam Schiff, D-Calif. Congressional Democrats have fought to get access to Mueller and his unredacted report on Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election and whether President Trump obstructed justice. CLICK TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP "Americans have demanded to hear directly from the Special Counsel so they can understand what he and his team examined, uncovered, and determined about Russia's attack on our democracy, the Trump campaign's acceptance and use of that help, and President Trump and his associates' obstruction of the investigation into that attack," Nadler and Schiff said in a joint statement. Mueller did not immediately comment. In a news conference last month in which he delivered his first public remarks in more than two years, the special counsel said he did not wish to appear before lawmakers. Fox News' Louis Casiano contributed to this report .


SACRAMENTO, Calif.   California lawmakers embraced new privacy rules on Tuesday for consumers who purchase smart speakers such as Amazon's Alexa and the Google Home device, legislation designed to ensure that the devices don't record private conversations without permission. The proposed law passed on a bipartisan vote in the state Assembly even as it faced strong opposition from the technology industry. It now heads to the Senate for consideration this summer. Assembly Bill 1395 would require manufacturers of smart speakers   which would include voice command systems built into tablets and mobile phones   to obtain permission from a consumer before the device saves recordings of commands or conversations it hears. It would create an opt-in system for consumers to consent even when the device hears certain "trigger" words designed to alert it to take action. "They can and do record conversations that are private within our home," Assemblyman Jordan Cunningham, R-Templeton, the bill's author, said about the devices now sold in California and nationwide. "They have the capacity to have those conversations shared and sold without our consent." Amazon confirmed earlier this year that the company has technicians who listen to recordings collected by its Alexa devices, but only as a way to improve the technology. But critics have said that customers have no idea they're being recorded by the smart speakers, which are growing in popularity. "That trust has been breached," Cunningham said. "We need to restore it." Technology companies, along with the California Chamber of Commerce, oppose AB 1395. Those groups told lawmakers earlier this year that manufacturers are already required to secure the recorded information and that a new sweeping state privacy law enacted last year ensures that consumers can force the deletion of personal information. Opponents of the bill said the devices record conversations only once they've been awoken to take action   and that purchasers can easily change the settings to delete those files. Some critics of AB 1395 said Tuesday that, while they support restrictions on selling or sharing information, they remain concerned about any new limits that could affect a device's learning ability, such as adjusting to a user's speech patterns. "Prohibiting the device from retaining your voice and learning from your voice, and getting trained in what you sound like when you say the 'wake' word, makes it a lot more likely that the device will wake up at inappropriate times and record inappropriate conversations," said Assemblyman Jay Obernolte, R-Big Bear Lake. The bill's supporters said they remain open to further amendments to its language as it makes its way through the state Capitol. All bills faced a key deadline this week for action, with final action required by mid-September.     ©2019 Los Angeles Times Visit the Los Angeles Times at www.latimes.com Distributed by Tribune Content Agency, LLC.


A Dallas County jury on Monday will hear opening arguments against a former Mesquite Police officer, now facing his second trial in less than one year. RELATED: Lyndo Jones' attorneys request retrial in case of former Mesquite officer A jury last fall could not come to a verdict in the aggravated assault with a deadly weapon trial against Derick Wiley. Wiley is accused of shooting an unarmed man during what he thought was a stranded motorist call in the 1300 block of South Town East Boulevard in Mesquite on November 8, 2017. Lyndo Jones survived after being shot twice, once in the back and once with a bullet that entered his stomach. During the first trial in September 2018, Wiley acknowledged that Jones didn't have a weapon and wasn't trying to hurt him. He testified, though, that when he pulled the trigger, he thought Jones had a weapon. RELATED: Mistrial declared in trial of former Mesquite police officer who shot man "It was in a split second, and I told myself, 'Derrick, do not die out here,'" Wiley testified on Monday. "It was an instant moment of fear, I thought I might die out there." Aggravated assault with a deadly weapon by a public servant is a first-degree felony, punishable by 5-99 years in state prison or life.


JenChan's Supper Delivery Club will move into the former Mouth of the South restaurant space on Carroll Street JenChan's Supper Delivery Club secured a lease earlier this week for the former Mouth of the South restaurant space on Carroll Street in Cabbagetown. It appears owners Jen Chan and Emily Chan's dream to transform their "mostly Southern, mainly Asian" prepared meals service into a restaurant within their neighborhood could be underway. Details are scare but, Emily Chan tells Eater Atlanta, "We hope to bring something familiar and inclusive and relaxed and groovy and really damn tasty to everyone. We will be more than a home base for our delivery service." Chan says people can expect JenChan's menu of meal options to remain relatively unchanged on Carroll Street. Think summer rolls stuffed with shrimp, vegetables, and mango, Chinese fried chicken wings, black bean spare ribs, potstickers, ricotta meatballs, and lasagna. JenChan's is currently based from shared commercial kitchen facility PREP Atlanta , which helps fledgling food businesses and future restaurants get off the ground. The couple's shared love of cooking and hosting dinners served as inspiration for JenChan's. Fully-prepared meals for up to eight people, soups, and appetizers are ordered online, with deliveries taking place the following Tuesday and Wednesday. "We are in love with our community and our neighborhood where we live, and now get to work [here] as well. How exciting is that," Chan adds. The Chan's have also been popping up occasionally down the street from their future home base at Little's Food Store for dumplings, spare ribs, rolls, and wings. Mouth of the South closed in June, less than a year after opening in what was once Cabbage Pie pizzeria on Carroll Street. The restaurant offered sandwiches like smoked brisket and a vegan eggplant bacon, lettuce, and tomato, wings, and salads on its menu. 186 Carroll Street SE, Atlanta. jenchans.com .

At least 13 jade mine workers and security guards in northern Myanmar were killed in a landslide Sunday, authorities said, as rescuers frantically searched for more victims. Dozens die each year in landslides caused by jade mining, a dangerous and poorly regulated industry in Kachin state between the country's borders with China and India. Myanmar's fire services department said in a Facebook post the accident happened in the early morning in Hpakant township. "We have sent two injured men and the dead bodies of 13 men" to a local hospital, the department said. A police officer on the scene told AFP that the upper part of a mine collapsed and fell around 200 metres (700 feet) onto those sleeping below. Though new regulations suspend mining during the wet season peak from July through September, some workers stay on site. Heavy rains pounded the area over the last week, according to the officer, who said the search for those missing is ongoing. The deadly landslide is the latest to hit Hpakant, the epicentre of a multibillion jade trade fueled by insatiable demand in China. In April more than 54 people were killed when a massive landslide buried workers along with dozens of vehicles. Many miners are from impoverished ethnic minority communities who risk their lives hunting the translucent green gemstone. Drug addiction among workers is also a major problem in Hpakant, which has been turned into a vast moonscape-like terrain by years of mining. Watchdog Global Witness estimated that the industry was worth some $31 billion in 2014. But corruption means very little reaches state coffers. Jade and other abundant natural resources in northern Myanmar including timber, gold and amber have helped finance both sides of a decades-long civil war between ethnic Kachin insurgents and the military.


DS Techeetah's Jean-Eric Vergne will start on pole for the ABB FIA Formula E race in Monaco after qualifying pacesetter Oliver Rowland's grid penalty is applied. Nissan e.dams driver Rowland, who came through the third segment of group qualifying, set the best time in Super Pole with a 50.021s   0.174s slower than the lap he set to top FP2. But as he has a three-place grid penalty for hitting Alexander Sims during the wet race conditions last time out in Paris, Rowland loses pole and will start fourth. Vergne was quickest in the first sector on his Super Pole lap, before losing fractions in the second and third segments to wind up 0.021s adrift of Rowland's best. Mitch Evans took third place but is under investigation for a possible Super Pole procedure infraction, which is believed to be activating his 250kW power mode too early. Pascal Wehrlein ended up fourth for Mahindra Racing but will be promoted ahead of Rowland, with Venturi's Felipe Massa starting fifth. Sebastien Buemi, who won both of FE's previous races in Monaco, finished sixth in Super Pole after losing time in the opening sector. Sims ran early in group three, slotting into third in the group standings, which were topped by Vergne, before he was shuffled back to seventh, missing out on Super Pole by 0.104s. Alex Lynn was the highest group four runner as he took eighth for Jaguar, one spot ahead of BMW's Antonio Felix da Costa, who was the highest group one runner. Jose Maria Lopez (Dragon) rounded out the top 10 from group four. Stoffel Vandoorne took 11th for HWA, with championship leader Robin Frijns (Envision Virgin) heading his fellow group one runner Lucas di Grassi (Audi) in 12th and 13th. Maximillian Gunther was 14th for Dragon, but he will drop to the rear of the field after getting a 10-place penalty for picking up a third reprimand of the season for speeding during the full course yellow test in FP1. Andre Lotterer ended up 22nd and last on the timesheets for DS Techeetah. He was the first driver to complete a lap in group one, but a lock up at the second part of the Swimming Pool complex and what looked like a brush with the barrier at the last corner cost him time. Jerome d'Ambrosio (Mahindra) and Edoardo Mortara (Venturi) both move down three places because of penalties from Paris, and will start 18th and 20th respectively.

Take advice from the experts and stay healthy for years to come. 40 Ways to Stay Disease-Free After 40 Given how sick Americans seem, you might think disease is waiting for you on every doorknob, urinal, handshake and hamburger one of life's inevitabilities. But in actuality, many diseases can be prevented. Past data has shown up to 40 percent of the 900,000 deaths in America every year didn't even need to happen. While you can't control everything , some of the most common culprits behind these health issues including heart disease, cancer, chronic lower respiratory diseases, and stroke can be halted simply by making some positive changes in your life. To ensure you stay healthy for years to come, take some advice from the health experts who know best. From doctors to registered dietitians, these are the best ways to fight off disease. 1. Get Preventative Tests Done Getting additional tests done while you're at the doctor isn't the most fun thing in the world. What it is, though, is life-saving. "Get preventative tests, as well as tests that show you what imbalances you may have internally that you may not even know about. These tests show information that traditional medical lab draws do not, like nutrient balance, metabolism rate, detailed hormonal pathways, gastrointestinal status for proper gut health, and heavy metal toxicity," says Maggie Berghoff , FNP-C, a family nurse practitioner. "When you know this information, you can heal and rewire the body to perform at optimal function, preventing any disease or nagging symptoms. These tests are specialty functional medicine tests and include blood draws or at-home collections of stool, saliva, or hair. You can reach out to a functional medicine practitioner to have them ordered and interpreted." 2. Start taking probiotics There's no better time than now to add probiotics into your life. The "good" bacteria which you can get from fermented foods like kimchi, yogurt, kombucha, and sauerkraut or supplements give your gut health a boost, better helping you digest food. The Cleveland Clinic says they can also help prevent or treat certain diseases, including inflammatory bowel diseases, like Crohn's. 3. Challenge Your Mind When you were younger, you challenged your mind every day. As an adult, when's the last time you did something that really got your brain working? According to Harvard Medical School , there's some evidence that doing cognitively stimulating activities can help prevent Alzheimer's disease. So grab that crossword puzzle or a new book on a subject you've always been curious about. It will do your mind good. 4. Know Your Numbers If you can't remember the last time you got your blood pressure, BMI, or cholesterol checked, it's time to head to the doctor and fix that. "We often see disease as complicated, but simply put, you will prevent 80% of all illnesses by adhering to three goals: Have a blood pressure under 130, have a BMI of 25 or less, and keep your cholesterol under 200," says Steven Lamm , MD, clinical professor of medicine and director of the Tisch Center for Men's Health at NYU Langone Health. "These three base parameters will lead to a healthier overall lifestyle for anyone." 5. Develop Your Support System Having people around you for love and support does more than make you feel great in the moment. It's also incredibly important for your health and well-being down the line. "Having a good work-life balance and a good support system is one way to increase your chances of staying healthy after 40," says Navya Mysore , MD, primary care at One Medical in New York City. "Spend more time with loved ones, like family and friends." When you have all those positive people around you to go to, you'll better cope with stress and keep your mood lifted. 6. Round Out Your Diet What your put in your body can greatly affect your ability to fight off disease. By making sure your diet is healthy and well-rounded, you'll be setting yourself up for a long, happy life. "Our Western diet, containing a high percentage of processed foods, can unbeknownst to people cause a pro-inflammatory environment in their bodies. Diets that are high in sugars and fats and low in fruits and vegetables can increase inflammation in the body and place one at risk for the development of cardiovascular disease, diabetes mellitus, and even cancers," says Adam Kreitenberg, MD, board-certified rheumatologist with 1MD . "Focus on diets that are high in fruits and vegetables, nuts, berries, and fatty fish like salmon, which contains high levels of omega-3 fatty acids. Foods to avoid are sugary soft drinks, red meat, white flour, and fried or fatty foods." 7. Don't Park So Close We get it it's really tempting to park in that spot right in front of the grocery store. But by simply parking further away and rethinking some of your other habits, too! you'll set yourself up for a healthier future. "Any form of increased activity is beneficial. Even parking at the end of the parking lot and walking to the store, mall, or whatever destination helps," says Michael Fenster, MD, board-certified cardiologist with 1MD . "A little each day really adds up. Recent research suggests as little as 10 minutes a day of activity can yield substantial benefits." 8. Tune into Turmeric You know that bright yellow powder sitting on your spice rack? You might want to start incorporating it into more of your meals. Turmeric has been used for centuries for its natural anti-inflammatory properties, and the Mayo Clinic says it could have a positive effect on many different diseases, including inflammatory bowel disease, type 2 diabetes, and cancer. If you start keeping your inflammation at bay now, you'll stay healthier in the future. 9. Pump Iron Weight-lifting is still primarily thought of as a man's thing. Luckily, that stereotype is changing, and that's a good thing: According to cardiologist Barbara Roberts , MD, it's not only great for men, but also one of the best things women can do to stay healthy as they age. "After the age of 40, the average woman loses about a half an inch of height per decade due mainly to osteoporosis. After age 70, height loss is even more rapid. That's why it's important for women to start weight lifting by age 40," she says. "Weight training has been shown to increase bone density by putting stress on bones. A recent study published in the Journal of Sports Medicine and Physical Fitness showed that even light weights about 20% of the maximum they could lift were effective in increasing bone density in women, as long as they did at least 100 repetitions of the exercise in one hour." 10. Keep the Weight Off Have your pants been fitting a little tighter lately? Take that as a sign to start putting a better focus on your health. "A massive study of the impact of health habits on life expectancy, which included over 120,000 participants, 34 years of data for women, and 28 years of data for men showed us how important our diet, physical activity, body weight, smoking, and alcohol consumption can be," says Monique Tello, MD, MPH , internal medicine physician at Massachusetts General Hospital, instructor at Harvard Medical School, and author of Healthy Habits for Your Heart . "Healthy body weight, as defined as a normal body mass index (BMI), is between 18.5 and 24.9." 11. Triple Your Veggies You've been told to eat your veggies since you were a kid, and now it's really time to listen to that life-saving advice. "Veggies and fruit are loaded with antioxidants that fight off free radicals in our bodies that contribute to diseases and illnesses. Doubling, or even tripling, up on your veggie intake will seriously help up your longevity, as well as boost your energy and mental cognition," says Brigitte Zeitlin, RD, owner of BZ Nutrition in NYC. "Fruit and vegetables are also high in fiber, which will help to lower cholesterol, improve gut health, maintain a healthy weight, prevent diabetes, and fight inflammation. Aim to have 1 cup of berries at breakfast with oatmeal or plain Greek yogurt, a salad at lunch loaded with a variety of colorful veggies, and a vegetable stir-fry for dinner." 12. Ditch the Processed Junk Instead of loading up on processed junk, clean out your pantry and fill your fridge with produce. "By eating a diet that's focused on vegetables, healthy sources of protein, and whole grains rather than processed sugars, you can prevent many health problems," says Nate Favini, MD, chief medical lead at Forward . That includes heart disease, diabetes, and different types of cancer. 13. Eliminate Inflammation For many people, anti-inflammatory health coach Jenny Carr , author of Peace of Cake: The Secret to an Anti-Inflammatory Diet , says experiencing an increase in fatigue, hormonal imbalance, weight gain, brain fog, or subtle digestive disorders, among other symptoms, are due to one culprit: the build-up of inflammation in your body. Unfortunately, not addressing these issues could lead to something worse down the line. Chronic inflammation has been linked to many life-threatening problems. "Over time these subtle low-lying symptoms can turn into major life-altering illnesses, such as cancer, diabetes, heart disease, dementia, and more," Carr says. "The key to living disease free after 40, or any age for that matter, is to melt away the inflammation. By doing so, you can begin to reverse symptoms in your body that impact you from living day to day life of your dreams." Heal your gut, prevent disease, and slow aging with a book like The 14-Day Anti-Inflammatory Diet . 14. Spark Joy Sure, eating a healthy diet is important in fighting off disease. One thing most people don't realize is just as important, though, is reducing the things that don't bring you joy and instead focusing on your happiness. "Find ways to reduce stress in life. Delete the things that cause tension and stress and increase those things that bring happiness," says Brian Greenberg, MD, board-certified allergist/immunologist with 1MD . "Spend as much time as possible doing the things you love and being with the people you love. Keep your big dreams alive and pursue them with vigor. Stay vital and useful." 15. Limit Refined Carbs As delicious as white flour, white bread, pastries, and white pasta are, it's time to cut down on refined carbs once and for all. "It's increasingly clear that refined carbs and sugars drive many chronic diseases. They cause us to gain weight, which leads to elevations in blood pressure, diabetes, and heart disease," Dr. Favini says. When you replace the refined junk with vegetables, fruit, and other wholesome options, you'll feel better and be healthier. 16. Savor The Right Oils Cooking with oil is a given. How can you not when it makes everything taste better? When you do use it, just make sure you're choosing the right kind. While trans fats and oils high in saturated fat like coconut, palm kernel, and cottonseed oil are no-gos, the Cleveland Clinic says using plant-based oils that contain monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats in moderation like extra-virgin olive oil, avocado oil, flaxseed oil, and walnut oil can help reduce heart disease. 17. Appreciate Food How often do you eat a meal without watching your favorite TV show? The next time you make yourself dinner, ditch the couch and remote and instead sit at the table. It's a small change, but it can make a big difference in your well-being. "More and more we're learning that how we eat affects our health not just what we eat," Dr. Fenster says. "Another recent study demonstrated that people perceive food as tasting better and lower their inflammatory markers when they take a moment to appreciate their food with whatever means or ritual they prefer." 18. Sleep Enough Most of the times, the things you need to do to prevent disease involve a lot of work. But sleeping does wonders for your body and it hardly requires any effort at all. "Sleep affects our health in so many ways," Zeitlin says. "There are two main ways it helps fight diseases. First, it's how our body naturally combats stress and anxiety by reducing our levels of cortisol (the stress hormone), which contributes to inflammation. Second, getting enough sleep helps you maintain a healthy weight. People who are overweight or obese have added stress on their bodies, which puts them at greater risk for heart disease and diabetes. Aim to get at least 7 hours of sleep a night to help boost your long-term health." 19. Manage Your Wellness One thing to keep in mind is that it's easier to take the steps to stay healthy and disease-free now than it is trying to get better once you're already sick. To stay feeling your best, Dr. Lamm says to prioritize your well-being sooner than later. "Wellness is not the absence of illness. You should be actively managing your wellness, not just reacting to illness," he says. "The keys to wellness are sleep, stress management, exercise, and nutrition. By managing these, you'll achieve the base parameters of health." 20. Don't Slack on Oral Hygiene Your teeth don't seem like they would have a lot to do with your overall health, but they do. According to Harvard Medical School , those with gum disease have two to three times the risk of having heart issues, whether that's a heart attack, stroke, or another life-threatening event. The thought is that gum disease increases inflammation in the body, leading to other health problems. Even though more research still needs to be done, it's only going to benefit you in the long run to brush and floss every day. 21. Rethink Exercise While it's important to get in the recommended amount of exercise each week, Dr. Kreitenberg says that doesn't always have to involve going to the gym. Your 150 minutes of moderate-intensity exercise can also be things you wouldn't typically think of as exercise. "An active lifestyle is crucial in maintaining proper health and wellbeing," he says. "Examples of moderate intensity exercise include light biking, gardening, and brisk walking. Even light aerobic activity such as casual walking is better than a sedentary lifestyle. Physical exercise is important to maintain not only cardiovascular health, but also joint health. It's important, however, to increase the intensity of your exercise over time to avoid injury." 22. Pour a Glass of Red Wine This is certainly a doctor-approved recommendation to cheers to. If you don't currently drink alcohol, Fenster says not to start now for health reasons. "But if you currently imbibe, 1 to 2 glasses per day appears to confer a wide range of health benefits," he notes. The antioxidants in red wine could even help prevent coronary artery disease. 23. Flush Your System Water isn't just important for fueling your body and helping you stay energized throughout your day. It's also key to eliminating inflammation that can cause multiple different health issues. "Eliminating inflammation may sound like a simple solution, but knowing what steps to take in order to help your cells regenerate as you grow young instead of old one of the benefits of anti-inflammatory living can be confusing," Carr says. "Start with water. Drink loads of it up to a gallon per day for adults as the fastest method to push inflammation from your body ." 24. Drink in Moderation A glass of wine here and there is one thing. But if you find yourself getting buzzed on the regular, it's time to put down the booze and reach for a glass of water instead. "Stick to a moderate intake of alcohol, which in past research  was measured as between 5 and 15 grams per day for women, and 5 to 30 grams per day for men," Dr. Tello says. Generally, one drink contains about 14 grams of pure alcohol. That's 12 ounces of regular beer, 5 ounces of wine, or 1.5 ounces of distilled spirits." 25. Actually Reduce Your Stress Stress comes from all different sources, and none of it's good on your body. By taking a little extra time every day to focus on fighting it off, you'll notice a change in the way you feel. Especially since letting it build up has been linked to everything from heart disease and cancer to depression and anxiety. "Individuals that are able to manage their stress tend to be happier and healthier," Kreitenberg says. "Stress not only affects one's mood, but also can have profound health ramifications. Stress can lead to poor sleep, weight gain, heart disease and an impaired immune system. Steps one can take to reduce and better manage their stress includes: eating right, regular exercise, meditation, proper sleep and maintaining a positive outlook on life. 26. Talk to Humans With technology, these days you probably talk to your friends through text or messaging more than you actually do in person. Make it your goal to start being a little more extroverted and taking those conversations into real life. "Talk to people," Fenster says. "The Harvard Happiness study confirms that the single most important variable in determining the length of our lives and the quality of our health is the quality of our relationships with each other. A lot of Instagram likes is no substitute for a real human relationship. A loving relationship remains the best health investment." 27. Unstick Yourself From Sugar Sugar isn't always the enemy: fruit has plenty of it, but it's a wholesome source. The white stuff you buy on store shelves, on the other hand, isn't in the slightest. "Eating too much sugar has been linked to almost every disease that your diet can play a role in, so keeping it in check is crucial for healthy living," Zeitlin says. "Be mindful of how frequently you are indulging in those cookies, donuts, cupcakes, muffins, and other baked goods, plus the pastas, bagels, cold cereals, and candy. And ditch those sneaky sugars like juices, sodas, bottled dressings, and fat-free foods that are high in sugar to make up for the flavor." 28. Go Cuckoo for Cacao There's no reason to pass up eating chocolate as dessert. You just need to choose the right kind. If you ditch sugar-packed milk chocolate and instead go for dark chocolate with at least 70 percent cacao, you'll get some heart-helping antioxidants in every bite. An 11-year-long study of nearly 21,000 people published in the journal Heart found those who ate the most dark chocolate had lower rates of dying from cardiovascular disease than those who didn't eat it at all. 29. Mix and Match If you're not currently hitting up the gym or an exercise class on a regular basis, start adding some sessions into your schedule. And don't be afraid to switch things up. According to Favini, getting a mix of aerobic exercise, high-intensity interval training, and anaerobic exercise is a great way to fight off disease. "Getting your exercise makes a huge difference. Regular exercise in your 40s continues to have benefits into your golden years, even if you aren't still exercising when you hit 70," he says. "Try to get 150 minutes per week of aerobic exercise or high-intensity interval training and spend at least one day's effort on something that improves your strength, balance and flexibility, like yoga or Pilates." 30. Eat Mostly Plants If you're struggling with eating healthy, there's one main thing to keep in mind: Stick to mostly plants and you'll be just fine. "Research shows that a diet high in fruits and vegetables, whole grains, and healthy protein and low in refined grains, added sugars, and red and processed meats is associated with a lower risk of both heart disease and cancer," Tello says. "The American Cancer Society's nutrition guidelines for cancer prevention and the American Heart Association's nutrition guidelines for heart disease prevention are essentially the same. Eat mostly plants (meaning fruits and vegetables), aim for plant proteins (like beans, lentils, nuts, and seeds), and eat whole grains (like brown rice, quinoa, and corn) instead of refined grains." 31. Stop Smoking Already!!! If there's one way to stay disease-free that every expert ever will agree on, it's to avoid smoking. And if you already do smoke, quit immediately. No nicotine rush is worth risking your life for. "Individuals that smoke die nearly 10 years earlier than non-smokers with nearly 7 million people worldwide dying from tobacco-related deaths yearly," Kreitenberg says. "Smoking increases one's risk for cardiovascular disease such as heart attack and stroke as well as chronic lung diseases, such as emphysema and chronic bronchitis. It's also a significant health risk for many types of cancer, including lung, bladder, and mouth and throat, among others. With regard to vaping, in my expert opinion, it's also not recommended we're not clear on its long-term risks. We're fortunate today to have many interventions to assist in smoking cessation, such as nicotine patches, medications, and support groups." 32. Know Your Family History In your 40s and beyond, it becomes increasingly important to know your family history and to provide your doctor with all the information you can. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), having a history of chronic disease in your family could increase your risk of developing it too, whether that's cancer, diabetes, osteoporosis, or heart disease. If your doctor knows, they can not only watch out for any signs and symptoms, but also give you the tools you need to stay healthy and prevent them the best you can. 33. Swap Smart in the Kitchen You know sugar is bad for you, but that doesn't mean you can't still have some sweet stuff here and there. The key is to make healthier swaps especially when it comes to some of the top inflammatory foods that can wreak havoc on your body. Sugar included. "Begin to swap out some of the top inflammatory foods for options that taste similar but don't inflame," Carr says. "For example, swapping out processed sugar for raw honey, unrefined coconut sugar, pure maple syrup, or raw agave are food swaps that not only taste great, but allow you to remove the number one most inflammatory food from your diet: processed sugar." To make the right food choice every time, visit Eat This, Not That! 34. Meditate. Daily. Meditation isn't some trend, or hippie hoo-haa. It's been proven time and time again to be a simple way to expand your lifespan by fighting off disease in the future, not to mention make you feel like your best self right now. "Meditation has been scientifically linked to lower levels of stress and higher levels of mental performance and happiness," Favini says. "Staying healthy in your 40s and beyond typically requires balancing work and home life, family, friends, and financial stress. Having a regular meditation or mindfulness practice can be invaluable in staying on track with your health and may even help you realize more meaning in your day-to-day life." 35. Have More S-e-x Yep, you read that correctly. Spending more time in the bedroom has been shown to do your health some good. A study from the American Journal of Cardiology found an active sex life could help reduce your risk of cardiovascular disease. That's all the more reason to make sure you're spending alone time with your partner as often as possible. 36. Limit Your Salt There's a good chance you're overdoing it on sodium, and that could seriously harm your health. The American Heart Association recommends adults stick to a maximum of 2,300 mg of sodium a day, yet most Americans eat more than 3,400 mg a day. Not just from using the salt-shaker also from all the sodium that's found in packaged foods and in restaurant dishes. In fact, a 2014 study published in the New England Journal of Medicine found reducing sodium intake to the recommended levels could prevent 10 percent of the deaths caused by cardiovascular disease. 37. Date Over Dinner You get plenty of body-boosting vitamins and nutrients when you eat by yourself, but when you meet up with friends, you're also getting some feel-good hormones that fight off disease and benefit your mental health. "Eat with friends. Community and connection are key to sustaining a long healthy life," Zeitlin says. "Time with the people who make us laugh and feel good releases feel-good hormones like serotonin, which is crucial in combating inflammation by suppressing cortisol. So spend time with the people who make you laugh and feel good over a (vegetable-packed) meal!" 38. Say Buh-Bye to Butter (and Fatty Meats) There are many health problems you can avoid by ditching butter and fatty meat for good, from diabetes to heart disease. Especially when it comes to preventing dementia, where research shows your diet and lifestyle choices make all the difference. "Dementia is a progressive, heartbreaking deterioration of brain functioning associated with aging. While there are different causes, the most common Alzheimer's and vascular dementia are now thought to be closely related to, and greatly impacted by, diet and lifestyle factors," Tello says. "The World Health Organization recommends avoiding toxic, inflammatory foods like processed grains (white flour, white rice), added sugar, sodium, and saturated fats like butter and fatty meat," Tello says. "Instead, eating a plant-based diet is crucial. There is substantial research evidence showing that eating a diet high in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, healthy fats, and seafood is associated with a significantly lower risk of cognitive decline and dementia. This approach to eating is often referred to as the Mediterranean-style diet, but it can be adapted to any culture or cuisine." 39. Don't Skip Your Annual Physical If you're feeling healthy, you might not think there's a reason to head to your annual physical. But after 40, it's especially important to keep up with those appointments. "Establishing care with a general practitioner or primary care physician is an integral part in maintaining yourself disease-free," Kreitenberg says. "A general practitioner is the so-called quarterback or coordinator of your overall medical health. From vaccines to routine health maintenance such as laboratory testing, guidance on nutrition, physical activity, and cancer screening they're trained to provide non-emergency care and help prevent a small issue from progressing to something more serious. I recommend all my patients, at the very least, have a physical with their general practitioner yearly." 40. Avoid Secondhand Smoke Unfortunately, it's not just smoking yourself that can get you in trouble it's also secondhand smoke. According to the American Lung Association , secondhand smoke causes more than 41,000 deaths every year some from lung cancer, and others from heart disease. That's why it's crucial to steer clear the best you can especially since even short-term exposure could increase your risk of having a heart attack.

Ben Simmons will not play for Australia in the FIBA World Cup this summer. The 76ers star made the announced Tuesday and will instead focus on preparing for the 2019-20 season with Philadelphia. "I wanted to let everyone know that after consulting with my representation, I've made the difficult decision to forego playing in the World Cup in China this summer," Simmons said in a statement he released on Twitter. "I will still be heading back home to Australia to host my camps as well as train and play with the Boomers in the upcoming Exhibition Games. "I'm really excited about the talent we have on the Boomers squad, especially moving close to 2020 where I will be honored and humbled to represent my country on the world's biggest sporting stage at the Olympics in Tokyo. "Ultimately, we decided it was best that I use the time in September to return to Philadelphia to acquaint myself with my new teammates and prepare for the upcoming NBA season." pic.twitter.com/CEmulzcqcR   Ben Simmons (@BenSimmons25) July 16, 2019 The 76ers selected Simmons with the No. 1 pick in the 2016 NBA Draft and he's played a large role in the team's resurgence as an oversized, do-it-all playmaker. Philadelphia put together one of the most talented starting lineups in basketball last season, featuring Simmons, Joel Embiid, JJ Redick, Jimmy Butler and Tobias Harris. But its 51-31 record ranked third in the Eastern Conference.

We ran through the biggest headlining moves of Wednesday's trade deadline ( American League ; National League ). But what about the trades that didn't take place? 1. Gun-shy big spenders. They had explanations for their decisions not to add significant talent on deadline day, but it was still stunning to see the Dodgers and Yankees   and, to a lesser extent, the Red Sox   bypass big moves. Both clubs are excellent just the way they are. Each rightly respects the value of young talent and perennial contention. But still…it has been quite some time since either took down a World Series title. And there could well be opportunities to second-guess if the roster is lacking that one key piece at a big moment. 2. Mets withhold Zack Wheeler. On the other side of the coin, this was by far the boldest non-sale. The Mets put a lofty price tag on their rental starter and stuck to it. It's a bold gambit that could easily backfire. True, there's value in pressing to contend. And Wheeler could still be issued a qualifying offer. (He might be a nice value on even an expensive one-year deal; if he declines, the Mets would likely recoup draft compensation.) But if the Mets can't continue their recent run, and/or health issues preclude a QO to Wheeler, this could be regrettable. 3. High-powered relievers stay in lower-leverage situations. Felipe Vazquez . Edwin Diaz . Kirby Yates . Mychal Givens . Raisel Iglesias . Alex Colome . Amir Garrett . Joe Jimenez . Jose Leclerc . There was some firepower and late-inning experience out there! And contenders that could've used it, with affordable team control helping to justify any addition. We never expected all of those arms to change hands, but I sure thought at least one or two would. 4. Boyd not bought. The Tigers don't seem that close to contending, if we're being honest. Sure, the tide can start to turn more quickly than one might anticipate. But there are a load of questions facing the organization over the next few seasons. Dealing Matt Boyd , whose eye-popping peripherals and three seasons of control are highly appealing, seemed to offer a ready-made path to boosting the Tigers farm in a way that other recent deadline pieces haven't. It would've been foolish to settle for a meager return, and it may be that the offers just weren't there, but it's surprising that nothing came together on the breakout lefty. 5. Cardinals keep bird in hand. With an increasingly glaring postseason drought, the game's model smaller-market team seemed to be positioned to chase glory at the deadline. It was frustrating for the team , and no doubt also for quite a few fans, to come away empty when there were some clear areas to improve on the roster. A division crown is still plenty possible, but the odds would be better with another quality starter and another bullpen or bench piece in the fold. 6. All Smoak, no fire. As rental pieces go, defensively limited hitters aren't that exciting. But man, Justin Smoak is a pretty good one. He's a switch-hitter on an affordable deal. His power is down a bit, but it's still there and he has been walking like a man possessed. Plus, he's a Statcast darling, with a lofty .389 xwOBA. 7. That dog don't Hunt[er] . Ditto Hunter Pence , who came back from the dead and turned in an All-Star first half. He's swinging a hot stick. He's cheap. And he's pure fire in the clubhouse. It feels like we're all missing out not having Pence giving color to high-leverage moments by stalking the dugout steps and entering the batter's box in a big moment or two. 8. Frazier not freed: Quite apart from the Yanks' generally quiet outcome was the fact that the club didn't manage to find a deal involving Clint Frazier . He could still have an impact in New York, at least once rosters expand, but the club has passed over multiple chances to bring him onto the roster and wouldn't seem to be increasing his trade value by keeping him stashed at Triple-A. It seemed to make an awful lot of sense for Frazier to be cashed in somehow on or before July 31. But he's still in New York (err, Scranton). 9. Middle relievers marooned. So … why exactly didn't these guys end up on the move? Prices were said to be frustratingly lofty by several contending GMs. Many ended up bypassing the top of the pure rental market, going to second- or third-tier rental pieces (e.g., the Nationals) or nabbing controllable, somewhat under-the-radar arms ( Nick Anderson , Joe Biagini , Jake Faria , Adam Kolarek ). But if those players moved, why not guys like Francisco Liriano , Craig Stammen , Greg Holland , David Hernandez , Jared Hughes and Cory Gearrin ? 10. Buy/sell blurred. While the aggregate amount of talent moved ended up being rather typical, the deadline lacked much in the way of decisive action as between contending and rebuilding, buying versus selling. The Mets and Reds made stunning trades that improved their still-middling chances this year, but they mostly did so with an eye to the future. Both clubs went on to perform a bit of corresponding payroll/roster management that partially offset their lone acquisitions. The Astros went big, while the Cubs and Braves made substantial adds (particularly when you include their midseason free-agent expenditures). But on the whole, tepidity abounded on the buy side. It was even more remarkable to see so few teams go for broke in a selling direction. The Giants did some reshuffling but clearly chose to walk a line. Many teams that found themselves in potential selling position after hoping to contend decided against deep cuts, such as the Angels, Rangers, Pirates, Rockies and Padres. (San Diego's one major swap did bring in a prospect but didn't meaningfully impact the team's expected contention timeline.) The Marlins and Blue Jays sent out a few pieces, but the Tigers, Royals and even the Orioles held their most interesting MLB assets (Boyd, Whit Merrifield , Givens, Trey Mancini , etc.). The White Sox did nothing of note. Even the Diamondbacks, who surprised with their Zack Greinke deal, also acted to bring in multiple MLB pieces to stay afloat this year and prepare for a reasonably competitive 2020. What does it all mean? Who can say? Perhaps it's just how things shook out this time around. Or it may be that the rise of prospect clutching and cheap extensions will usher in a new era of mainly "homegrown" teams, for better or worse.

Common things you might have on your list of items when getting ready to go on a cruise are toiletries and sunscreen, along with these other things you should pack for a cruise . One thing you probably haven't thought about? Researching cruise ship code words. But, to ensure guests have the most relaxing atmosphere possible, most major cruise lines have come up with a variety of internal code words to use during an emergency or other situation. Certain codes are commonly used among different cruise lines to signal true emergencies, said Janet Semenova, an independent affiliate of Palm Coast Travel & Signature Travel Network. These code words are used by crew members to discreetly communicate with each other when things go overboard. Before anyone steps foot on the ship, cruise personnel and captains receive intensive training. These drills show a certain level of competency that is mandated across all cruise lines, Semenova said. Here are just a few examples of code words used on a cruise. PVI and 30-30 Not all stomachs are made for the sea. One of the most common phrases heard on cruises is "PVI," code for public vomiting, Semenova said. All other general messes are communicated with the simple "30-30." A little vomit doesn't hurt anyone, but here are 13 of the craziest things cruise personnel have encountered. Kilo and Bravo If you see cruise personnel rushing to a certain area on the ship all at once, don't be alarmed. They have pre-determined emergency posts to report to during an urgent situation, Semenova said. To signal this, the word "Kilo" must be said. This next word doesn't mean what we all think it means "Bravo" signifies a fire onboard the ship, she added. Charlie, Charlie, Charlie It seems that the more serious the threat, the sillier the name. "Charlie, Charlie, Charlie" is used when the captain wants to alert the crew that there is a security threat. Don't fret though, because cruise personnel and the captain receive ongoing training. Alpha or Sierra, and Operation Bright Star or Rising Star Like all living things, humans have bodies that sometimes break down. Medical emergencies on cruises don't happen frequently, but when they do, there's a host of code words to communicate the issue. General medical emergencies use "Alpha" or "Sierra" when a stretcher is required, Semenova noted. A severe medical emergency or a death on the ship may be signified with "Operation Bright Star" or "Operation Rising Star." Ship deaths happen rather frequently, Semenova said, and these words alert the crew to discreetly take care of the deceased. Surprised by these code words and their meanings? Read on for other secrets cruise lines won't tell you before you set sail on your next trip. RELATED VIDEO: Do Not Make These Rookie Mistakes on a Cruise (via Buzz60)


Mayor Lori Lightfoot cited her "moral authority of being the mayor of this city" Friday in again calling for Ald. Edward Burke to step down after he was accused in a federal indictment of public corruption, including an alleged attempt to extort private legal work from people doing business with the city and threatening to oppose a museum admission fee increase because a former alderman's relative had not been offered an internship. Burke has professed his innocence, and he won re-election in February despite the fact federal authorities had already charged him with attempted extortion. Aldermen are allowed to serve in the City Council until convicted of a crime. But Lightfoot said the breadth of the allegations against Burke in the 14-count indictment released Thursday changes the situation and makes it impossible for him to continue representing his Southwest Side ward. She said she would send Burke a letter Friday calling on him to resign. "What the superseding indictment alleges is multiple schemes over multiple years where he is trying to use his power and influence as the Finance Committee chair and using city employees to bend to his will to get them to   unwittingly, hopefully   participate in a criminal scheme," Lightfoot said at a City Hall news conference she called Friday to again hammer the aldermen. "That is a far degree different, that information absolutely was not before the voters of the 14th Ward when they went to the polls and voted for him on Feb. 26. So I think the circumstances have changed dramatically." Lightfoot has announced she will have the city corporation counsel look into whether any city employees or officials engaged in wrongdoing as part of the alleged Burke schemes. It's too early to say whether anyone else should step down, she said Friday. "Once that investigation is complete, we'll have a better understanding of what role, if any, they played, whether they were unwitting or not, and will take appropriate action, if any, at that time," she said. As for Burke, Lightfoot acknowledged she can't force him out. But the former federal prosecutor, who was part of the prosecution team in the infamous Operation Silver Shovel federal investigation in the 1990s that eventually landed six council members in prison, said the allegations against Burke are "a degree different and more serious and more wide-ranging, and more problematic for us as a government." "The indictment alleges a yearslong course of conduct in which he is repeatedly, in different circumstances unconnected from each other, trying to pressure third parties to hire his law firm in return for providing government access and services," she said. "And it's wide-ranging. I've not seen anything like that with respect to Chicago aldermen." Lightfoot has used Burke as her political punching bag for months. She surged to victory in the mayoral campaign after he got charged, in large part by relentlessly criticizing Burke and the mayoral candidates with connections to him as part of Chicago's broken status quo. On Friday, she said it will take time to root out the corruption that has long been part of local politics. "I don't want the FBI and the U.S. attorney's office to in effect be our HR manager, but there is a need for law enforcement, because people aren't getting the message," she said. "The Chicago way is a deep cultural phenomenon," Lightfoot added. "I hope that by what we do and the way we conduct ourselves in government, we will be freeing up the business people, we will be freeing up our employees to recognize that they can do their jobs with integrity, that they can conduct businesses in the city with integrity, without having to give more to get access to basic city services." jebyrne@chicagotribune.com Twitter @_johnbyrne


Lionel Messi has admitted he wants to win titles with the Argentina national team before the end of his career ahead of this summer's Copa America. The Barcelona forward endured a disappointing end to the season with his club outfit as the Catalans crashed out of the Champions League at the semi final stage before losing to Valencia in the Copa del Rey final. "NO ME GUSTA VERME, ME DA VERGÜENZA CUANDO ME VEO EN LA TELE" #MessixFOX | Lionel Messi reconoció que "no suele volver a ver los partidos" pic.twitter.com/jzhTxtbdm5   FOX Sports Argentina (@FOXSportsArg) May 31, 2019 However, Barcelona did retain their La Liga crown and Messi has the chance to add further silverware to his glittering record over the summer when he leads Argentina in the Copa America. The 31-year-old is yet to win a major honour with Argentina and, as quoted by Ole , Messi told Fox Sports: "I want to finish my career and win something with the national team or try as many times as possible. "I want to get up, try again, it is the message for children who like to see me. "That's life, stumble and get back up and fight for your dreams. One does everything possible, but it is God who decides whether that will be for one or not. He will decide what is best for me, for us. God has the last word. "People see that the national team is continually killed, with comments that despise the players, that kill all the players and people get into that too. "People also asked for the change of the generation. It was true that a change should have been made. "But sometimes they say things that can not be done. We would like to take care of all the people for the love, and they were looking for anything to give us."


TIJUANA, Mexico   Thousands more National Guard troops are scheduled to arrive in Tijuana on Friday to take unprecedented steps in securing Mexico's northern border and preventing migrants from crossing into the United States. On Monday, Mexican army troops removed two migrants from Las Playas where other migrants have clashed with U.S. border agents in recent months. The troops, along with Mexico's immigration agency, checked identification for people gathered near the Tijuana beach, according to a video recorded by human rights activist Hugo Castro. Apoelnar Botello said he was among those whose ID was checked by military troops. "They told me I can't be this close to the border wall because I don't have documents or permits. At one point, they told me I can't be on the beach. What kind of documents do you need to stand on the beach?" he asked. Botello said he has a business in San Diego, remodeling kitchens and bathrooms, but he went home to Puebla in southeast Mexico to visit family. He admitted he was eyeing the porous fence near Playas and considering crossing back into the United States illegally by swimming around the fence that extends about 30 yards into the ocean. The increased military presence has made him decide to look for another place to cross, he said. "It's too hot here right now," he said referring to the increased patrols of police and military near the beach. "It's necessary (to cross) because I have family on the other side and I'm the one who works provides for my family." Human rights activists and attorneys say the deal struck between the United States and Mexico for migrants to wait in Mexico while their asylum claims are processed could run afoul of some people's legal rights. U.S. authorities say migrants are abusing the system meant to protect people from persecution in order to improve their economic situation. Since October, record-breaking numbers of migrants have traveled in caravans across Mexico trying to reach the United States to claim asylum, causing tense diplomatic relations between the two nations. Many of the mostly Central American migrants said they fled violence caused by government corruption, poverty and gangs. President Andrés Manuel López Obrador is facing intense pressure from the Trump administration, such as threats of crippling tariffs, to reduce the flow of migrants who reach the United States border. The countries struck a deal to avoid U.S.-imposed tariffs that included Mexico securing its southern border and hosting all migrants as they wait for a decision on their U.S. asylum cases. But now, Mexico is volunteering to do more to prevent people from crossing into the United States by strengthening its northern border. Mexican Defense Minister Luis Cresencio Sandoval González announced Monday troops and members of the country's newly-formed National Guard   made of military police, the Navy, the Army and federal police   will also be deployed along the entire stretch of Mexico's northern border with the United States from Tijuana, Baja California to Matamoros, Tamaulipas. Baja California's incoming governor, Jaime Bonilla, said he met Tuesday with federal police, federal migration officials and local Tijuana leaders to go over protocol for the arrival Friday of more National Guard troops and to secure resources from the federal government to shelter migrants while they wait. "We are organizing so that when the migrants are returned, they do not cause any inconvenience to the population of Tijuana, Mexicali or at any other point in the state," said Bonilla. He said the troops will also address safety in Tijuana where homicides caused by the local drug trade reached all-time highs last year. Some National Guard troops were already sent to Tijuana earlier in the year to try to stem the increasing violence. Experts say Mexico has never before deployed so many troops to engage in migration enforcement, and historically, the country has resisted U.S. demands to seal its northern border. When López Obrador was elected last summer, he even vowed in his victory speech in Tijuana that Mexico would no longer do the "dirty work" of enforcing U.S. immigration policies, which he had called "arrogant, racist and inhumane" on the campaign trail. His defense minister, Sandoval, said the National Guard and army units totaled between 14,000 and 15,000 men deployed in the northern part of the country. Bonilla did not have an exact count on how many of those troops would arrive in Tijuana or Baja California, but he said the region was the highest priority to secure. Sandoval said the National Guard would prevent people from crossing into the United States, but other protocols for processing and sheltering migrants would be handled by different agencies. "We only stop them," he said, elaborating that migrants without papers will be handed over to the National Institute of Migration "considering that migration is not a crime, it is an administrative fault." "We put them at the disposal of the authorities to do their normal procedure that must be done or the authorities will determine what will be developed in the future for these migrants," Sandoval said. Meanwhile, López Obrador acknowledged Tuesday the National Guard already may have committed some "excesses" in their attempts to control migrants near the southern border and vowed to investigate all reported violent incidents. "There may be these excesses, but the instruction they all have is that human rights are respected, and that will continue," he said. "If there were cases, it is not the instruction they have. It is a job that, in any case, corresponds to the migration agents, not the army." Attorney Nicole Ramos is the director of the Border Rights Projects for Al Otro Lado, a Los Angeles-based legal aid organization. She provides legal orientation and know-your-rights training to asylum-seekers stuck in Tijuana, a dangerous border-city with skyrocketing drug violence. She said returning asylum-seekers to Tijuana could violate international law in some cases. "International law protects against … the return of asylum-seekers to a territory where they fear persecution," Ramos said. "Further, any government deploying armed forces to stop asylum-seekers from accessing safety has lost sight of its moral compass." As Tijuana braced for more troops, the political fallout continued from Tuesday's chaotic developments in Washington and at the border. Some Democratic presidential contenders addressed the immigration crisis ahead of Wednesday night's debate in Miami. One of them, Elizabeth Warren, visited the Homestead detention facility on Wednesday, and denounced the conditions in which migrant children were being held. Standing on a step ladder alongside the "witnesses" who have been stationed on a roadside patch across from the facility, Warren said she could glimpse some of the children held in its institutional dormitories and tent shelters. "These were children being led like soldiers, like little prisoners from one place to another," Warren said. "This is not what we should be doing as a country." The Homestead facility, the largest detention center for migrant children, and one that is operated by a private corporation, is becoming an essential stop for Democratic candidates this week. Several other candidates had already dropped by or were planning to by the end of the week, including California Sen. Kamala Harris, who will be there on Friday. "We just hope it is not a flash and it is a spotlight, that this isn't just today because this is today's issue, but a spotlight that is going to be hot enough and bright enough until this place wilts and dies and we never have to witness anything like this again," said Joshua Rubin, a 67-year-old software developer from Brooklyn who has been one of the lead organizers of the protests. Before Homestead, Rubin had been organizing protests at the now-closed Tornillo detention center in Texas. He decided to drive out there one day in his RV and park himself across the street and begin witnessing and reporting what he saw from outside the fences. Others would eventually join him. Three months after Rubin began showing up at the Texas facility daily it shut down. "I started getting emails," he said. "People were saying, 'You've got to get to Homestead. It is worse.'" The Trump campaign on Wednesday sent reporters its take on all the attention Democrats are directing toward Homestead. It accused the candidates of "hypocrisy" and noted that children have been detained at Homestead since Joe Biden was vice president, and pointed out that Democratic lawmakers and journalists were allowed inside four months ago.

Sometimes you just get the urge to hit the bench press . At least, that seems to be the case for a 75-year-old security guard at Kennesaw State University's gym who benched 225 pounds for reps, wowing a group of men a quarter his age in the process. Instagram user Jalil Kuku (@ jalilkuku ) recorded the session, which you can watch here: View this post on Instagram 75 years old!!! that grown man strength is something else!!!! We were in the middle of cable flys and the security guard just walked up and was looking around for about 5-10 minutes. He then sat down on the bench across from me and was looking at us so we thought we were in trouble.. but then he just laid down on the bench and repped 135 6-7 times.. he got up, saw we were in awe and said, "I'm just warming up.. can't be a p**** your whole life, add another 45" and then i started recording. s/o to @mylesprice_ for coming to spot him 😂😂 What an inspiration!!! // licensed by worldstar A post shared by 𝒦𝑜𝑜𝓀𝓈 ⁶𓅓 (@jalilkuku) on Jul 24, 2019 at 2:39pm PDT A post shared by ⁶ (@jalilkuku) on Jul 24, 2019 at 2:39pm PDT According to Kuku, the unnamed man was patrolling the gym before he sat down and benched 135 for six or seven reps. He then said, "I'm just warming up, can't be a [expletive] your whole life, add another 45," according to the post's caption. That's when Kuku started recording. The guard looked a bit unsteady under the new weight at first, and another lifter moved in to spot him. But after a quick readjustment, he powered through five reps at 225, surprising his spotter and everyone else at the gym. The other men in the video are clearly impressed, and so are we. The security guard's apparent affinity for the bench press just goes to show that you're never too old to pump iron. But please, no matter your age, get someone to spot you before you go for it.


The NFL announced on Friday that Los Angeles Rams offensive lineman Aaron Neary has been suspended without pay for the first four games of the regular season. The suspension stems from a violation of the league's substance abuse policy. Last September, Neary was arrested for DUI and had a blood-alcohol level of 0.17, more than twice the legal limit. Neary is not a lock to make the 53-man roster this season, so this isn't a significant blow to the depth chart. In fact, he already had an uphill climb to sticking with the Rams, considering the team just drafted Bobby Evans and David Edwards. Given his absence from the first four weeks of the season, the Rams could choose to cut ties with Neary now rather than waiting until late August or September. If he does make the team, he'll be eligible to return to the active roster on Monday, Sept. 30.
