Ferrari’s Fernando Alonso emerged unscathed to take victory on Sunday in a drama-packed Chinese Grand Prix, with the Lotus of Kimi Raikkonen and Mercedes’ Lewis Hamilton holding on for second and third.

“I know some of you dislike me,” she started. “But understand…I’m fighting for you, too. That you might be free to be you. That you might not have to work so hard to put food on the table. That you can control your own destiny free from discrimination,” she said. “That you can live…just live.” Milano was best-known for Charmed before she became a prominent activist. She often blasts the leadership of President Donald Trump on Twitter and has been vocal about the #MeToo movement and abortion restrictions....

The actress, 35, is expected to have her conservatorship dissolved at a hearing on Tuesday, after a tentative ruling by the Ventura County Superior Court on Friday revealed that Judge Roger L. Lund intends to end it. “Petitioner has provided facts that the conservatorship is no longer needed,” read the ruling, in response to Bynes’ February request. “The Capacity Declaration filed 02/22/22 concludes that conservatee has capacity [to] give informed consent to any form of medical treatment....

The Fire TV is available for purchase starting today and it retails for $99.

What’s more, the device offers a unique voice search feature through its remote with which users can easily switch between apps and services....

It’s just for today, however, and it’s only offering 15% off its smart heating products. A smart heating system makes it much easier to see and track the heat you’re using, which is the first step to using less and saving energy (and cash). Some smart heating systems use geolocation to automatically switch off the heating when you leave the house, so you’ll never forget and heat it while it’s empty....

Localytics recommends that Android developers should be sure of the fact that their Tablet based apps should pop up in App Store. Since Google Play Store is not available on the Kindle Fire, Android developers are missing on potential buyers.

“I kind of stepped off the back of the mound after one of my pitches,” Bieber said. “I wasn’t able to totally look up and see everything because there was so much going on, but I heard everything and soaked it all in. I can’t really thank the fans (enough) for creating that moment for me and making it so special.” MORE: Cleveland thrives with All-Star spotlight It was a night of poignant moments for Cleveland pitchers past and present....

At 17-1, they have the best combined record for two opponents this late in the season since the 1970 merger. But the Colts' 39-33 win over the Broncos on Oct. 20 is evidence that the Broncos and Chiefs might be more smoke and mirrors than we want to admit. That was the only game either has played, of 18 total, against a team currently with a winning record. Their combined record against winning teams this season is 0-1....

As trophy hunting has gotten more popular, the last few years have seen a shift in achievement design. Now, for the most part, games tend to keep their trophy list restricted to just single-player objectives, which can be unlocked at any time. That wasn’t the case during earlier console generations, however, and there are a handful of games that have at least one time-restricted trophy, and that time restriction is often Christmas day....

Sakho joined Palace in January and helped the club keep record five wins and four clean sheets in eight Premier League appearances before he suffered a season-ending knee injury in April. British media have reported Liverpool want 30 million pounds ($39.11 million) for the centre back and Eagles chairman Steve Parish has said that he will only agree a deal if it made financial sense. “For a club like ours, the figures would have to match up to what else we have to try and get and if we have the budget for it,” Allardyce told a news conference ahead of Sunday’s league trip to Manchester United....

LONDON (Reuters) - Crystal Palace played Sam Allardyce’s trademark counter-attacking game almost to perfection in the 4-0 rout of Hull City at Selhurst Park on Sunday that secured their place in the Premier League for another season. Palace allowed Hull to have close to 70 percent possession but were strong enough at the back against a weak attack to dominate the game and exploit the attacking skills of their more talented forwards....

According to the criminal complaint, Glenn Allen Brooks of Huntington Beach, California, allegedly “boasted of his active participation” in the riots and “sent photos of his attendance at the Capitol to the church text group.” This information was provided to the FBI by an unidentified witness who the complaint said was member of the same church prayer text group as Brooks. The photo reportedly included “other people at the riots/protest and a selfie photo of himself inside the Capitol....

With Ohio’s primary a week away, Senate candidate Josh Mandel is scheduled to make multiple campaign stops over the weekend. Cruz is continuing to stump for Mandel even after Trump later gave his coveted endorsement to former writer and venture capitalist J.D. Vance. Following the caustic 2016 election, Cruz became a staunch ally of Trump, raising questions why the Texas Republican is bucking the former president in the key race....

In explosive comments to reporters at his secluded mountain training camp in Big Bear, east of Los Angeles, Golovkin said Alvarez had benefited from preferential treatment throughout his career by authorities in Nevada, where the two men will fight in a much anticipated rematch on May 5.
