Iconic '80s Rock Band Causes a Stir at Qatar Grand Prix

Metallica's performance at the Qatar Grand Prix was a standout moment of the Formula 1 weekend, yet it didn't impress all fans.

After the thrilling race at the Lusail International Circuit, the event offered not just an immersive Formula 1 experience but also a world-class live concert.

As the circuit transformed into an entertainment destination at night, fans were treated to unforgettableperformances from top artists– from British soul singer Seal to the "King of Rai" Khaled before the weekend wrapped up with Metallica taking the stage.

On Sunday, the legendary rock band showcased a high-energy set, performing classic hits like "The Memory Remains," "Nothing Else Matters," "Enter Sandman" and more.

As part of the closing act, the crowd witnessed a magnificent fireworks display after Metallica's performance.

To commemorate the moment, the iconic '80smusicgroup expressed their deepgratitudeto the fans for their unwavering support and energy throughout the show.

In an Instagram update, the post included the set list from their Qatar Grand Prix performance and teased what fans could expect for their next show.

"Our first pit stop in Doha, Qatar, was spectacular! Thanks to @f1 and @lusailcircuit for letting us join in on the full throttle, white knuckle tight festivities! Up next is our first visit to Bahrain!" the post reads.

However, their performance had mixed reactions from the public, sparking an online debate regarding their song selection.

There were fans who were delighted with the setlist for reviving nostalgic hits and keeping the energy of the show alive.

"Awesome set," one wrote.

"Another great setlist," a follower echoed.

"Today was mind-blowing!! Thank you for still doing this," another added.

Unfortunately, there were others who expressed disappointment over song selection.

"This setlist has been used like 184739393 times," a commenter said.

"Same setlist every time bro you have more songs," a fan pointed out.

The same goes for an Instagram user who noted, "Every setlist is pretty much the exact same hits now."

While the Rock & Roll Hall of Famer's performance had plenty of memorable moments, fans are already asking for new surprises.

A follower even requested, saying, "Switch it up, pls."

"Need 2 change up the set list!!!!!!" a fan echoed.

Another expressed the same sentiment and wrote, "If you're gonna play the same songs all the tour, at least add another 5 songs... same setlist in the last 20 years."

With Metallica's tour continuing in the Middle East as part of theM72 World Tour, it will be interesting to see if the band refreshes the setlist for upcoming stops.

Travis Hunter's Wife Leanna Hunter Makes Personal Admission About Her Pregnancy

Travis Hunter's wife, Leanna Lenee (Hunter), has recently shared a deeply personal journey about her pregnancy, faith andfamilylifewith the Jacksonville Jaguars rookie star.

In a series of Instagram Stories, the 24-year-old opened up about the emotional and spiritual experiences that marked the past year, giving fans a rare glimpse into her life behind the scenes.

Lenee revealed she had given her life to Jesus on Jan. 2, 2025, while on a beach in the Dominican Republic. She described the period leading up to this moment as her "rock bottom," struggling with mental health and public scrutiny.

"I cried and asked Him for strength, forgiveness, and for Him to reveal Himself to me. In exchange, I would read every word of His that is written and complete it by the end of this year," she wrote in her post.  That same night, she discovered a "Biblein a Year" plan and committed to daily readings.

A few days later, she received her first conviction to stop cursing, a habit she admitted was difficult to change.

"The first week after this was the hardest because it was how I spoke, and how I've always spoke. But I put in my best effort," Lenee shared. She noted that by mid-January, she had successfully stopped using curse words entirely.

Just a month after her spiritual commitment, Lenee found out she was pregnant; a shocking revelation as she was on birth control.

"It's kind of funny to me now because one of my biggestprayersbefore I found out was praying forpatience. And oh how humorous our God is! He gave me the ultimate test of patience and perseverance," she said.

Despite initial doubts and emotional ups and downs, Lenee's faith gave her theconfidenceto embrace motherhood. "I promised myself I would be the best mother to my child and teach him all about how good our God is."

The couple quietly welcomed theirsonin August. Their baby arrived prematurely, spending several weeks in the NICU.

Lenee expressed that this challenging time strengthened her faith and brought her family closer.

"I truly think this time was when Travis met Jesus. He told me that he wanted me to help him learn. He dedicated himself to stop cursing… everything I have prayed for was just unraveling right in front of me," she added.

The couple married in May 2025 after dating since 2022. Lenee shared that the wedding was a spiritually meaningful moment for her.

"I remember feeling so happy that I wasn't living in sin anymore LOL. I had done so muchreadingat this point and I was feeling a conviction literally every day because I knew now that God intended us to marry before anything else," she continued in another Instagram Story.

Since tying the knot, the couple has navigated the highs and lows of NFL life together. Hunter, who was drafted by the Jacksonville Jaguars in April, is currently recovering from a knee injury sustained inOctober, requiring surgery and sidelining him for the rest of the season.

Despite the challenges, the couple has celebrated joyful milestones, including Leanna's 24thbirthday, where Hunter went all out, decorating their Jacksonville mansion in a Hello Kitty theme.

By the end of 2025, Lenee completed her ambitious goal of reading the entire Bible in one year.

"The place and person I am today is SO different than who I was inJanuaryand there's only one reason for that. God has been so faithful in my life. He has blessed me in more ways than I could ever imagine," she posted.

Lenee's journey highlights her transformation and motherhood while sharing her experiences publicly to inspire others.

Flooding recovery efforts underway in Indonesia, Sri Lanka and Thailand as death tolls rise

PADANG SIDEMPUAN, Indonesia (AP) — Recovery and aid efforts are underway in parts of Southeast Asia and South Asia where the full number of dead and missing are not yet known after heavy rains and flooding left a devastating toll in the past week.

The severe weather killed at least 469 people in Indonesia, 170 in Thailand and 334 in Sri Lanka, authorities said.

In Thailand, Prime Minister Anutin Charnvirakul on Saturdayoutlined recovery and compensation plansfor the southern part of the country, where the Department of Disaster Prevention and Mitigation said severe flooding in 12 southern provinces affected more than 1.4 million households and 3.8 million people.

Sri Lanka authorities said Monday that rescuers are still searching for 370 missing people. Nearly 148,000 people are housed in temporary shelters after beingbattered in the past weekdownpours that flooded homes, fields and roads and triggered landslides, primarily in the tea-growing central hill country.

Indonesia President Prabowo Subianto on Monday pledged to rebuild infrastructure while visiting areas impacted byfloods and landslideson Sumatra island that left thousands homeless and 474 people missing as of Monday.

Some areas of Indonesia remained unreachable Monday after the disaster damaged roads and downed communications lines, with residents in impacted areas relying on aircraft delivering supplies. Flooding displaced 290,700 people in North Sumatra, West Sumatra and Aceh provinces, the National Disaster Management Agency said.

Prabowo, who visited North Sumatra on Monday and was expected to West Sumatra and Aceh during the day, said the government's response is reaching those in need.

"We need to confront climate change effectively," Prabowo said. "Local governments must take a significant role in safeguarding the environment and preparing for the extreme weather conditions that will arise from future climate change."

Sydney men charged with spreading child sexual abuse videos tied to international ring

MELBOURNE, Australia (AP) — FourSydneymen have been charged with criminal offenses over their alleged involvement in the distribution of child sexual abuse material linked to an international child sex abuse ring, police said Monday.

A New South Wales state police task force identified the Sydney-based network while investigating the online distribution of encrypted child sexual abuse material involving ritualistic and satanic themes, Det. Supt. Jayne Doherty said.

"There's no run-of-the mill child abuse, it's all abhorrent child abuse," Doherty told reporters.

"But these ones were particularly devastating in that they use symbols and rituals around … their discussions that they were having about abusing children. It had a very ritualistic overview," she added.

Police executed multiple warrants around Sydney last Thursday and four men were arrested.

Police also seized electronic devices allegedly containing thousands of videos depicting the abuse of children from babies to 12-year-olds.

"Police will allege in court that this international group were engaging in conversations and the sharing of material which depicted child abuse and the torture of children involving symbols and rituals linked to Satanism and the occult," Doherty said.

Doherty said police did not believe that the defendants recorded any of the abuse material that they shared.

Police were working with their international partners to identify the victims, where they had been abused and their abusers, Doherty said.

No victim had been identified by Monday, she said.

Police said one of those arrested, Landon Germanotta-Mills, 26, played a leading role in the ring.

Also arrested were Stuart Woods Riches, 39, Mark Andrew Sendecky, 42, and Benjamin Raymond Drysdale, 46.

All four were charged with various offenses relating to spreading child abuse material online. Germanotta-Mills was also charged with disseminating and possessing bestiality material, also a criminal offense.

Legal Aid NSW, which is representing Germanotta-Mills, declined to comment to the AP on Monday. Julian Balloot, the lawyer representing the other three defendants, did not immediately respond to a request for comment on Monday.

All four were refused bail and will appear in court next in late January.

Pope to visit Christian sites in Lebanon as he encourages Christians not to abandon the region

Pope Leo XIV's visits holy sites in Lebanon on Monday that draw Christian and Muslims as he seeks to recognize the importance of the country'sreligious pluralismand also send a message to Christians not to abandon the region.

Over the past few decades, hundreds of thousands of Christians have left parts of the Middle East for good, driven by wars and the rise of Muslim extremists.

Leo arrived in Beirut on Sunday after a visit to Turkey that began on Nov. 27. He challenged Lebanon's political leaders to be true peacemakers and put their differences aside as he sought to give Lebanon's long-suffering people a message of hope and bolster a crucial Christian community in the Middle East.

A Muslim-majority country where about a third of the population is Christian, Lebanon always has been a priority for the Vatican as a bulwark for Christians throughout the region.

Despite the many crises that have battered the small nation, Christians in Lebanon continue to enjoy religious freedom and significant political influence. Since gaining independence from France in 1943, a power sharing agreement has been in place in which Lebanon's president is a Maronite, the parliament speaker is a Shiite Muslim and the prime minister is a Sunni Muslim.

This makes Lebanon the only Arab country with a Christian head of state.

Leo visits the Tomb of St. Charbel Makhlouf and the Shrine of of Our Lady of Lebanon on Monday, both north of the capital. The sites draw large numbers of Christian and Muslim visitors and pilgrims.

He also is set to hold an interreligious meeting with leaders of other sects in central Beirut and meet young groups at the Maronite patriarchate.

Here is the latest:

Leo opens day in Lebanon

Pope Leo XIV is opening his first full day in Lebanon with a visit to the tomb of a saint revered among Christians and Muslims throughout the region.

Every year, tens of thousands of pilgrims visit the monastery of St. Maroun in Annaya to pray at the tomb of St. Charbel Makluf, a Lebanese Maronite hermit who lived from 1828 to 1898. He is known today for many alleged miraculous healings that have occurred after people prayed for his intercession.

Leo's visit to the tomb, the first by a pope, opens a busy day.

History's first American pope will meet with Catholic priests and nuns at a shrine in Harissa and then preside over an interfaith gathering with some of Lebanon's Muslim leaders in Beirut.

He will end the day in Bkerke at a rally for Lebanese young people. Leo is expected to encourage them to persevere despite Lebanon's many crises and challenges.

Leo arrived Sunday in Lebanon fromTurkey, where he opened his first trip as pope. He wraps up his visit on Tuesday with a prayer at the site of the 2020 Beirut port blast and a Mass on the waterfront.

QB Justin Herbert breaks bone in left hand, but he's optimistic about playing for Chargers next week

INGLEWOOD, Calif. (AP) — Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert will have surgery Monday to repair a broken bone in his non-throwing hand.

Herbert is optimistic about his chances to play next week for the Chargers (8-4), whobeat the Raiders 31-14on Sunday for their fourth victory in five games. Herbert played the final three quarters against Las Vegas with a hard cast on his left hand while exclusively taking shotgun snaps.

"I think it's one of those things where you just stabilize it (and play)," Herbert said. "I'm not the doctor, unfortunately, but they were hopeful, so I think that's a good thing."

Herbert wasn't sure when his hand was broken, but it appeared to happen late in the Chargers' opening drive when he was thrown to the ground by Raiders safety Jeremy Chinn after a short scramble. Herbert threw a touchdown pass to Quentin Johnston on the next snap, but trainers took him off the field a few minutes later.

Trey Lance took Herbert's place to begin the Chargers' second drive against Las Vegas. After Lance moved the Chargers past midfield and completed his only throw, Herbert returned to the sideline and took some practice snaps before joining the drive with a protective glove over his cast.

"What I know is that he's as tough as they come," Chargers coach Jim Harbaugh said. "He taped it up, (put on a) glove and played a great game."

Herbert quickly completed passes to Keenan Allen and Oronde Gadsden before throwing an interception to Kyu Blu Kelly, who stepped in front of Ladd McConkey at the goal line. That difficult pick was Herbert's only turnover despite his limited ability to hold onto the ball.

"Ball security is at a paramount, and I think I did a good enough job of that today in the pocket," Herbert said. "Just get the ball to the running backs."

The Chargers and Raiders were tied at halftime, but Herbert led two long scoring drives in the second half. His offense converted 12 of its 17 third downs while outgaining Las Vegas 341-156.

Herbert has 2,842 yards passing with 21 touchdowns and 10 interceptions this season, his sixth for the Chargers.

Herbert had to play with a splint on a broken finger on his left hand after it got caught in a Raiders defender's helmet in 2023, but he also missed the final four games of that season afterbreaking a finger on his right handwhile playing against Denver. Those four games were the only injury absence of Herbert's career.

"In terms of experience, I've gone through so many things," Herbert said. "I think it will be helpful, but at the end of the day, just got to go out there and make sure everything is good, you're comfortable, and as long as the trainers and doctors are feeling it's safe to return to play, I trust those guys completely."

The Chargers got nowhere near the playoffs in 2023, but Herbert's current team is in playoff position with five games to play, and he doesn't want to miss a chance to chase his first postseason victory.

Los Angeles' remaining games are a gauntlet against five opponents currently over .500 — starting with a visit from defending Super Bowl champion Philadelphia next Monday night.

"I'm treating it as if I'm playing Monday," Herbert said. "I think they were very hopeful for that, so I think that's just something we'll see tomorrow and get a feel for."

While theirFortnitecollaborationmay be over,The SimpsonsTV show is still very much going (and, presumably, will outlive us all). Season 37's most recent episode, "Aunt Misbehavin'' found Bart and Lisa taking sides in a bitter spat between Marge's twin sisters Patty and Selma.

But the episode begins with a feud between Bart and Homer, after Bart trolls his dental hygienist by devouring a box of triple-stuffed Oreo-like cookies immediately before his appointment. Homer then takes a power drill to Bart's Xbox, inspiring the boy to seek revenge.

Luckily for Bart, his Aunt Patty has a pre-conceived plan for how to brutally prank Homer. "Perhaps the enemy of my brother-in-law is my nephew," she muses to herself. Patty hacks into the DMV database by impersonating her newly-promoted sister and has Homer declared legally dead.

Of course, this isn't the first time that Homer has been declared deceased on the show, lest we forget that back in season seven, he pushed a lifelike dummy off a cliff into dangerously beaver-filled waters, just to avoid an afternoon of picking up trash with his co-workers.

But Homer was seemingly even more delighted by his most recent faux-demise. He was especially thrilled when Krusty the Clown dropped by the Simpson house to induct Marge into the Krusty Burger Widow's Free Fast Food For Life Club, flanked by late Krusty Burger mascots Burger Reynolds and Princess Fry.

"I should have died years ago!" Homer exclaims after learning that they'll have access to an unlimited supply of Krusty Burgers.

But arguably the funniest moment in the episode occurs during a montage of Homer reaping the rewards of his death, fittingly set to The Traveling Wilburys' "End of the Line." After celebrating the erasure of his debts, Homer takes a nap in a hammock and is quickly surrounded by a team of organ donor collectors. But before they have a chance to help themselves to any of his body parts, one of the medics has a heart attack and collapses. The others simply shrug and take him away in a body bag instead of Homer.

It should be noted that legendary character actor Stephen Tobolowsky deserves praise for hisSimpsonsdebut as the proudly lame credit card point junkie Merle, who hooks up with Selma. Also, there's a solid joke about Mr. Burns' inadvertently smutty vanity license plate.

You Might Learn A Thing Or Two From These 65 Hilarious History Memes

As kids, you might have had a favorite subject: maybe math,science, literature, or evenhistory. But let's face it, history class sometimes had a way of feeling...a little too long. All those dates, battles, and treaties could blur together before the bell rang. But now, there's a much more entertaining way to revisit the past, one meme at a time.

Thanks to the InstagrampageMilitary History Memes, we stumbled upon some of the cleverest and most hilarious takes on historic events. These memes break down complicated stories with a dose of humor and just enough sarcasm to make them memorable. Keep scrolling for a crash course in history that'll actually make you laugh out loud.

While schoolbooks and online resources often teach us aboutmilitary historyand battles, we don't hear enough about the families behind those in uniform. These are the people who quietly hold down the fort while their loved ones protect the nation.

For every soldier on duty, there's often a spouse adjusting to new cities, raising children alone, or dealing with the heavy silence during times of conflict. It's a side of service that doesn't get medals, but deserves recognition just the same. That's why we spoke with Paramjeet Kapuria, wife of a retired army officer who served for 20 years. She offers a glimpse into the quiet strength it takes to be an army spouse.

"It's hard for them," Paramjeet begins, "but it'shardfor us too. We're part of this journey, even if no one really talks about our part in it." She notes how textbooks may mention ranks and wars, but rarely speak of the women and families who keep things running at home. "You have to be strong, even when your world feels unsteady," she adds. From birthdays to anniversaries, many special days are spent waiting for a call or a letter. "It's not just one person who sacrifices, it's the whole family," she explains, gently but firmly.

"Every time they change base or get transferred, our livesuproot completely," she continues. New cities, new schools, new neighbors, it all becomes part of the rhythm. There's little permanence, and even less familiarity. "You make friends only to say goodbye again in a year or two," she says with a sigh. And that takes its toll, emotionally and physically. "Still, you adjust because you have to. That's the life we signed up for, together."

Paramjeet recalls how there were times she wouldn't see her husband for weeks. "He'd be on duty, in places he couldn't even name." The uncertainty was overwhelming, she says, especially with young kids at home asking for their father. "You can't always explain war or duty to a four-year-old." And there's the loneliness too, quiet nights filled with worry, hoping for good news. "It changes you," she says. "But it also makes you resilient in a way you never imagined."

"Whenever there was unrest at the border, we'd sit glued to the news," she adds. "You're looking for one name, one face in a sea of headlines." The fear is constant but unspoken. "You stay strong for your kids, for your partner, but inside you're battling your own war." She remembers a time when a close friend's husband was injured. "It was a wake-up call, we support each other like a family." That's what helps you cope: community and shared strength.

Paramjeet also highlights one often-overlooked struggle,career sacrifices. "I had to quit jobs more than once due to transfers." Many army wives, she says, put their own dreams on hold for the family's stability. "Sometimes I wonder what life could've been like but then I look at our journey and feel proud." She knows her story mirrors thousands of others. "It's a collective sacrifice, not just one uniformed person's." That's why, she feels, stories like hers matter.

"These days I see more army wives sharing their stories on social media," she says with a smile. "It's heartening, people are finally hearing us." There's strength in community, in speaking out. "We've always been thesilent warriors," she adds. "But silence doesn't mean weakness." Whether it's cooking dinner with one eye on the news or keeping kids calm during a deployment, these everyday moments hold weight. "They're acts of love, strength, and loyalty."

"I'm a proud army wife," she concludes. "Our sacrifices may not be the same, but they're still sacrifices." From sleepless nights to raising children alone, from waving goodbye at train stations to writing endless letters, her journey is one of grace under pressure. "I wouldn't trade this life, even with all its difficulties," she says. And it's that pride, that unwavering support, that keeps the entire system running.

Well, it's definitely tough being part of a military family. The sacrifices often go unseen, and the strength it takes to keep going is nothing short of inspiring. Thankfully, with social media, we're now getting to hear their stories, feel their emotions, and understand the real weight behind those uniforms, on and off the battlefield.

And hey, we're also getting a whole new way to learn about history. Yep, thanks to these memes. Funny, clever, and weirdly educational, they turn battles and moments from the past into scroll-worthy content. So, tell us, which meme made you laugh, which one made you curious, and which one sent you googling that historic event?
