In an interview with Uninterrupted, the former Tennessee Volunteers back relayed a story in which he met an interested team ahead of the 2017 NFL Draft. Before he interviewed with the GM, a team official gave him advice on his nose ring. MORE: Kamara: ‘I’m in the top percentile’ of running backs “I had a team, before I went into the meeting, one of the guys came up to me and was like, ‘Well you’re about to go in with the GM, so, you know, he doesn’t really understand the nose rings and things like that, so you might want to — can you take ’em out or tuck ’em?...

Since 2017, the dual-threat running back has been the bell cow of the Saints offense, but that might not be much longer. Recent reports indicate that Kamara may be on the trade block, helping a potential contender The trade deadline has been already been a bit busier than some were anticipating, and Kamara is one of several big names that remains on the market ahead of the Tuesday deadline....

Currently, an Alzheimer’s diagnosis cannot be 100% confirmed until a patient dies and their brain tissue can be examined during an autopsy. Still, physicians use an arsenal of imaging tools to help diagnose patients with AD, like positron emission tomography (PET), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and computerized tomography (CT). Structural imaging tests help clinicians examine a patient’s brain for a buildup of a protein fragment called beta-amyloid—a hallmark of AD....

Dave Sayers, a 49-year-old Englishman, became the center of attention at a charity golf tournament after getting his head stuck in a trash can. It all started when he tried to throw away his clubs and quickly went downhill from there. “We were coming to the end of the day and I had been losing it a bit with a few bad shots,” Sayers told the British publication Telegraph. “We’d all had a few beers....

Drawing over 15,000 upvotes and hundreds of comments, the find excited the internet and set off a feeling of nostalgia. “When it saw the light of day again, I was extremely surprised by the discovery and posted it on Reddit, thinking a few people would find it, well, mildly interesting.” Reddit user Bitbatgaming asked the poster: “Did you invest in the company,” to which he responded: “I wasn’t born for five years!...

The violations could have led to a maximum penalty of over $1 billion, but the OFC levied the far lower amount due to several “mitigating factors,” which were said to include reporting the violations, launching an investigation and taking steps to prevent similar violations in the future. The OFC noted that some of the orders processed were for “personal security products on behalf of persons located at the Iranian embassies in Tokyo, Japan, and in Brussels, Belgium....

Some of these stories sound like they are from the 19th century. They bring back bad memories of a time when there was no accountability and crony businessmen could get away with horrendous treatment of workers. If Jeff Bezos can afford to take a private rocket into space, he should be able to treat his employees like human beings. It’s time the American people were reminded that everyone is accountable to the law in this country, no matter how wealthy they are....

Starbucks, Milani Cosmetics, Etsy and more have been named in a viral thread that called out brands and companies for making light of Heard in the blockbuster defamation trial that saw her detail severe allegations of abuse against her ex-husband. Depp also leveled allegations of abuse against Heard in turn, and a jury largely sided with the Pirates of the Caribbean star in May, and awarded the actor $10 million in compensatory damages, as well as $5 million in punitive damages....

But the league also shows a modern flair. America’s opponent this week, Club Tijuana, was founded in 2007 and already has a league title to its name. Meanwhile, the soccer being played is some of the most advanced in the region, while young players take advantage of opportunities and put their own flavor into the stew that is the long history of Mexican professional soccer. These contrasts on the field and off it are what makes Mexico such an intriguing location, as a soccer league and as a nation....

The tally also marks the 41st year that the F-Series has been America’s best-selling vehicle, surpassing sales of vans, cars, wagons and sport utility vehicles (SUVs). “The Ford truck team’s ability to anticipate customer needs, continuously innovate, and provide best-in-class levels of capability and performance has helped make F-Series the sales leader time and time again,” said Kumar Galhotra, president, Ford Blue. “We’re honored and humbled that our customers have helped us achieve this milestone for more than four decades....

This year it’s Club America and Pumas meeting in the first round of the playoffs after the Apertura’s meeting between America and Cruz Azul. That contest resulted in a pair of scoreless matches with America moving on thanks to being the better team during the regular season. Las Aguilas summarily defeated Tigres 4-0 on aggregate in the next leg and went into the offseason seeking reinforcements. Those players arrived with Jeremy Menez, Andres Ibarguen and Henry Martin boosting the attack - at least initially....

The American Airlines flight had been due to take off from Dallas-Fort Worth Airport in Texas at 6.30 p.m. and land at Nashville International Airport just over two hours later. But the incident meant the flight didn’t arrive at its destination until 4.40 a.m. on Sunday, WKRN reported. A spokesperson for the airline confirmed to Newsweek that the “disruptive” passenger was arrested on Saturday evening for making a false claim, but did not elaborate further....

So why is my father so excited about Air America? Because whatever his faults as a political thinker, Dad (not his real name) is a great man when it comes to faith in his son’s abilities. “Why do they need Al Franken when they could have you?” my father was saying the other day. “You’re the only liberal voice I can listen to. You’d be great on that station.”...

The drug, of course, is caffeine. And, according to a new book that I read one night last week when I couldn’t sleep because I had been drinking too much coffee, caffeine is making me smarter, wittier, thinner, more productive, more fun at parties and (appearances to the contrary notwithstanding) sexier. “Caffeine is a safe, almost magical tool for releasing our hidden potential,” according to “The Caffeine Advantage,” a new book/rationalization by noted coffeeholics Bennett Alan Weinberg and Bonnie Bealer....

When the dust settled, it turned out that Councilman James E. Davis had been killed by a political rival who had gotten his gun into City Hall because he had accompanied the councilman, who waved him past the metal detectors–a common courtesy in a profession filled with glad-handling and back-slapping. Because this is America, where attention spans are probably not even long enough to finish this sentence, the next day’s coverage of the Davis killing focused only on Davis’s act of courtesy and not on the actual accessory to the crime: The legally purchased gun in Othniel Askew’s pocket....

Almost exactly 20 years after he stood before the aging soldiers of D-Day on the cliffs of Normandy, saluting the warriors who had saved democracy, Ronald Reagan died, quietly, in his house on St. Cloud Drive in Bel Air last Saturday, ending his long and noble battle against Alzheimer’s disease. “It was very peaceful,” a family member told NEWSWEEK. “It was time.” Word of Reagan’s death came as the world was once again commemorating the Allied victory over Nazi tyranny....

U.S. research found only 63.6 percent of six- to 12-year-olds and 68.1 percent of those aged between 13 and 17 were getting enough sleep on a weeknight. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends six- to 12-year-olds get at least nine hours on an average weeknight, while 13- to 17-year-olds should aim for at least eight. The team looked at answers from 49,050 parents of young people aged between six and 17 years old, who took part in the 2016-2017 National Survey of Children’s Health....
