Even though his grandfather, a newspaper publisher was one of the richest men in Indiana, Danny Quayle didn’t grow up surrounded by wealth. For a time, the family lived in a small house in Huntington; he attended public school all the way through 12th grade. He was an excellent golfer, but only an average student. In 1988, George Bush surprised the country when he named Quayle, by then a U....

Due out in September through Rodale Kids, Wild Symphony tells the story of a mouse conductor who’s looking to staff up his orchestra with other animals. As kids move through the story and admire the work of illustrator Susan Batori, they can also listen along to original musical accompaniments via a smartphone app. Though he’s world-famous as a writer, Brown actually wrote and recorded an album of children’s music—called Musica Animalia—back in the late ’80s, before his books were a fixture on shelves everywhere....

With just eight games on Monday’s schedule – only three of which start before 9:40 pm ET – our pitcher rankings are understandably thin, but there are still plenty of decent hitter picks (see below). Still, you can expect daily fantasy baseball lineups in cash games to be pretty chalky. High-K studs Carlos Carrasco and Chris Archer are clearly the top pitching choices today, but Dan Straily and Sean Manaea can also rack up a lot of strikeouts in a hurry....

Chris Sale is our top pick (20.2 IP, 33 K, 0 ER in past three starts), followed by Max Scherzer, but if there was ever a night to save money, tonight is the night. Jon Lester has been heating up lately, and he faces a D-backs team batting .232 with a 25.5 percent K-rate against lefties (both among the bottom five). Marcus Stroman and Mike Fiers both have great matchups and should definitely be considered....

No, that’s not really our advice, but, honestly, on days like this, it really comes down to price and who fits best within your budget. There isn’t a stand-out, must-have pitcher, as even the top options come with a little uncertainty. There are nine lefties going, so perhaps if we were deeper into the season and had more splits to go off of, we could find a good sleeper that way, but for now, we’re still largely going on perception when it comes to matchups....

Lawrence Malcolm Jr., who appeared in court via video from the Burleigh Morton Detention Center, was charged with felony criminal mischief and misdemeanor engaging in a riot. Evidence gathered after the DAPL protest was sent to the North Dakota State Crime Lab. Analysts scored a hit on Malcolm’s DNA, which was already on file following a previous arrest, according to the Billings Gazette. After the charges were filed against Malcolm in September 2019, his attorney Bruce Nestor asked the court to dismiss the charges saying that the cigarette butt’s existence at the site is no proof Malcolm participated in the protest....

Dale Earnhardt Jr., who won four races and made it to the second round of the Chase last year, lost three pit crewmen to Joe Gibbs Racing’s new fourth team during the offseason.

The 31-year-old uploaded a video on Instagram, revealing his injury. In the video, he is being treated by a doctor on his left knee with the hook still clinging on to his flesh. The severity of the injury is not known, and Cricket South Africa have not made any official announcements on their strike bowler’s availability for the tournament, yet.

This week, Destiny fans were excited to learn that the Bungie Bounty was making a comeback. During the Bungie Bounty, gamers are tasked with defeating a specific PvP player, or group of players, in exchange for a very rare emblem. However, Bungie sets the Bungie Bounty up to be tough, oftentimes calling upon the best of the best in PvP, like friend of the site TripleWRECK, to see if they can go a full hour (or two) without losing a match....

Lillard has slowly crept into the national eye over the past two seasons, first winning the Rookie of the Year award in 2012-13 and appearing in the 2013-14 All-Star Game. Portland pulled off a major upset over the Houston Rockets in the first round of the playoffs last season, and Lillard has become something of an underground star. From a marketing perspective, Lillard’s addition to Live’s cover should peak the curiosity of East Coasters and drive shoe sales for the Blazers star, who is attached to adidas and could be one of the next players to get his own signature shoe....

You can bet DFS players will be even more eager to use Reds and Rockies in Coors Field after a 19-run game on Monday. Today’s tilt between those teams also features one horrific starting pitcher for Cincinnati (Jon Moscot) and a Colorado pitcher (Jon Gray) who has been terrible at home. Of course, the Reds-Rockies game is just one of several with a bad pitching matchup. Today’s pitching slate is awfully top-heavy, and with higher-priced pitchers comes the need to find some cheap value plays so you can afford guys like Jose Fernandez and Jake Arrieta....
