Clyde goal hero hails 'whirlwind' win over Peterhead as he eyes Morton clash
Craig Howie says Clyde snatched a 'cheeky' win at Peterhead in a crazy end to their Premier Sports Cup clash on Saturday. The hosts led 1-0 through an 82nd-minute Kieran Shanks penalty four minutes into stoppage time, but Howie and debutant Mouhamed Niang netted within one minute and 43 seconds of each other to take the points back home. That left the Bully Wee on four points going into a clash at home to Stenhousemuir on Tuesday, where they drew 2-2 and won 4-3 on penalties. That leaves Clyde on six points with their last Group G fixture at Morton on Saturday. With Motherwell having won the group, the best they can hope for is a best runners-up slot if they can beat Dougie Imrie's side. Rutherglen man Howie said: 'It was a bit of a whirlwind finish. There really wasn't much in the game and we were quite disappointed to be 1-0 down quite late on. 'I didn't actually realise how late the two goals were, but we knew we had to throw everything at it. 'We put a longer ball into the box, and luckily I was just able to get my head on it, direct it on target, and I'm not really sure how it made its way in, but it ended up in the bottom corner.

'It was the 94th and 96th minute, which is a bit crazy. I don't think I've ever been involved in a game where we scored two so late on, but I would say on the balance of play that we deserved at least a draw. 'A victory might have been a bit cheeky, but we'll take it!' Howie, 29, knows Clyde are up against it to be part of the last-16, and said: 'It's a great result and it's a really difficult cup to progress in, especially when you're looked at as one of the lower teams in the group, being in League Two. 'It would be huge for the club to potentially progress in this cup. It's probably not expected of any of the League Two teams to get through, because it's only one team that goes through, and then a small number of second-placed teams. 'For any League Two clubs to progress would be really good, and it would be really good for Clyde, so there will be a big push from all the boys there to get it over the line.'

Cat Jumps on Owner's Walking Pad, Hysterics at What Happens Next
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. A black cat named Howie has become an unexpected internet sensation after a video of him sprinting on his owner's walking pad went viral. The clip, shared on TikTok in June under the username @meowyhowie, shows the feline from Austin, Texas, running at a steady 3.2 miles per hour on the walking pad, meowing loudly as his owner reassures him that he can stop, which he soon does. Felines can be incredibly fast; the best example is the cheetah, renowned for its ability to run at 60 miles per hour. While their domestic counterparts cannot reach this speed, they can however reach peaks of 30 miles per hour. The fastest breeds of all are the Abyssinian and Bengal, known for their athleticism and ability to navigate their surroundings at speed. When it comes to exercising, there is no set amount of exercise that should be carried out specifically for cats and kittens, but Warren House Veterinary Group suggests having at least two play sessions per day for 15 to 20 minutes. This short exercise will help reduce boredom, avoiding the famous "night zoomies" that cats often display, and keep them active. The best way to exercise for a cat include: pouncing; using toys that can be pounced on; climbing; having safe areas for felines to climb on, such as scratching posts; chasing; and long, feather-type toys. Batting is also another great choice, and rolling toys such as balls are good for this; and, last but not least, exploring, showing them new areas of the house or providing objects such as cardboard boxes or cat activity stands.

One user, Maassgirl, commented: "He wants you to slow it down, cats are smarter than we think, he knows you control the speed." Sipuli91 posted: "Cats can actually get addicted to these and running wheels. That's how one of ours sounded like when she truly kicked into the running gear. Now she's busy protecting the wheel as her territory and p***** all over the living room while on SSRIs to try to stop the negative behavior caused by the wheel." Jay added: "This isn't safe for them. He could train too much and become an Olympic champion and never return home." Newsweek reached out to @meowyhowie for comment via TikTok comments.

What songs are on Backstreet Boys' setlist for Las Vegas Sphere shows?
Vivid Seats is the New York Post's official ticketing partner. We may receive revenue from this partnership for sharing this content and/or when you make a purchase. Featured pricing is subject to change. The ball has finally dropped on 'Into the Millennium.' After announcing their Las Vegas Sphere residency way back in mid-February, Backstreet Boys put on the first three concerts of their 21-show run at the visually-spectacular venue this past weekend. On Friday, July 11, their inaugural night, Nick, AJ, Howie, Kevin and Brian performed 25 songs according to Set List FM. And, while the Sphere residency is named after the group's best-selling 1999 album they didn't play the iconic record in order. 'Larger Than Life' — the album opener — kicked off the show but from there they jumped into the lively 'It's Gotta Be You' (the fourth track) instead of 'I Want It That Way.' From there, they continued mixing things up and keeping fans on their toes. Classics from the self-titled 1996 'Backstreet Boys' like 'As Long As You Love Me,' 'Quit Playing Games (With My Heart)' worked their way into the show. 'Black and Blue' was represented by 'More Than That' and 'Shape of My Heart.' Perhaps most exciting of all though was the inclusion of 'Millennium' tracks that hadn't been performed live in years. 'I Need You Tonight' and 'The Perfect Fan' made their first appearances in over a quarter century; 'Spanish Eyes' returned after nearly a decade on the shelf. They even debuted their new single 'Hey' off the recently re-released 'Millennium 2.0.' Outside of the music, the show itself was…'Larger Than Life.' '…this was more than a mere concert, it was a thrill ride, and the vibrating haptic seats and nonstop visuals elicited shrieks in their own right,' USA Today gushed int their glowing review of the July 11 concert. 'The nearly two-hour joyride came with a futuristic spaceship theme – a nod to their bazillion-selling 'Millennium' album, the celebratory theme of these Vegas shows.' Plus, ''I Want It That Way' marked the first time a Sphere concert has involved a moving apparatus,' USA Today reported. 'The guys stood atop a platform that rose astoundingly high during the finger-snapping pop behemoth while lasers zigzagged around them.' If you'd like to see the beloved boy band live, tickets are available for all remaining Backstreet Boys concerts from now until Aug. 24. For more information, our team has everything you need to know and more about the 'Into the Millennium' Las Vegas Sphere residency below. All prices listed above are subject to fluctuation.

'Everybody (Backstreet's Back)' On Valentine's Day this year, Backstreet Boys released the single 'Hey.' The emotionally charged track was originally written for the band's 2019 album 'DNA' but ultimately didn't fit in with the album. 'We wanted to hold on to it and [then] this announcement happened, it was like, 'Oh my gosh, what better way to present a brand-new song?' So it turned out perfect,' Brian Littrell shared with The Today Show. If you'd like to hear the guys' latest heartbreaking bop, you can find 'Hey' here. For those that want to dig even deeper, we recommend checking out 'Millennium 2.0,' which features the original 12 tracks, 'Hey,' a few other new songs, alternate lyrics to 'I Want It That Way,' a couple demos and live versions of songs. It's a lot but perfect for any fan that wants a closer look at one of the definitive albums of the late '90s. Many hitmakers you know and love will be out and about these next few months.

Legendary 70s horror film that was almost never released now streaming for free
An iconic British horror film that very nearly didn't see the light of day is streaming for free right now on BBC iPlayer. Starring Christopher Lee, Britt Ekland, and Edward Woodward, The Wicker Man follows Sergeant Howie (Woodward) as he arrives on the remote Scottish island of Summerisle to investigate reports of a missing child. The conservative Christian policeman is scandalised by the bizarre rituals and sexual displays from the natives, particularly those of Willow (Ekland) and Lord Summerisle (Lee) As he gets closer to finding out what happened to the child, Howie inadvertently places himself in great peril. Directed by Robin Hardy, it was once famously described by Cinefantastique as 'the Citizen Kane of horror movies' and is often lauded as one of the best genre films of all time. The Wicker Man holds a 91% rating on Rotten Tomatoes with the critics' consensus reading: 'This intelligent horror film is subtle in its thrills and chills, with an ending that is both shocking and truly memorable.' To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video In their review, Decent Films wrote: 'The gothic ambiance and mood synonymous with the era's familiar tales of unholy menace is wholly absent. If there is evil here, it doesn't know it's evil.' London Evening Standard added: 'You can't help smiling at the audacity of it all and shivering a little at the feelbad ending.' The Guardian said: 'A British golden-oldie worthy to be placed alongside classics such as Ira Levin's The Stepford Wives or Rosemary's Baby.' 'The Wicker Man's genre-bending, thematic daring, and tortuous history have made it the U.K.'s definitive cult movie,' Village Voice stated. But its popularity wasn't instant. It went almost entirely under the radar when it first hit cinemas as it was released as the B picture on a double bill with Don't Look Now. It bombed at the box office initially in Britain and failed to gain traction in the US, but thanks to its critical acclaim, The Wicker Man became a cult classic and gained the respect it deserved. The Wicker Man's release is also a marvel, given the studio British Lion's financial troubles that almost buried it. They also didn't like the finished project, dismissing and refusing to promote it. In the months after it was released, Lee called critics on the phone, begging them to come to a screening, even offering to pay for their tickets. The film's budget was low, and the crew behind the production was forced to gather money wherever they could to finish it. The Wicker Man caused great turmoil in the Hardy home, with the director's son Justin telling Metro it 'f***ed up his family.' After the film's catastrophic reception, Caroline, Hardy's wife and Justin's mother, who had invested all her money in it, was saddled with the debts while Robin packed his suitcase and left for the US in 1974. 'My mother was trying to get some response from him, and eventually had to divorce him on the grounds of not having heard from him' he said. More Trending 'My sister had to change her name from Arabella to Joanna in order to be able to survive a Banbury comprehensive. It was a pretty big, pretty seismic, social change. All these years I have had people saying to me: 'God. You're so lucky. Your dad made The Wicker Man.' But that's not quite how I see it. 'It was a very sad time. Because, apart from everything else, I'm going: 'Well, where's Dad? Are we going to see him tomorrow? Are we going to see him next week?' And my mother said: 'I have no idea. I don't know where he is. I don't know how to reach him.'' He continued: 'I had to grow up with my sister with a very, very bitter and disappointed, quite heavily-drinking mother. When she died in 1984 in some ways, it was a sort of merciful ending to what had been a sort of horrible endurance.' The Wicker Man is streaming now on BBC iPlayer Got a story?
