Ozzy Osbourne remembered by Metallica, Green Day and Coldplay
Ozzy Osbourne, the trailblazing frontman of Black Sabbath whose thunderous voice and outsized personality helped shape the sound and spectacle of heavy metal, died Tuesday at the age of 76. Tributes poured in from across the music world, with Bay Area artists like Metallica, Green Day and Sammy Hagar leading the chorus of grief. 'It's impossible to put into words what Ozzy Osbourne has meant to Metallica,' the band wrote on X. 'Hero, icon, pioneer, inspiration, mentor, and, most of all, friend are a few that come to mind.' They credited Osbourne and his wife, Sharon, with helping to launch their career, teaching them 'how to play in the big leagues.' Drummer Lars Ulrich has previously described touring with Osbourne in 1986 as a pivotal moment for the band. Metallica later joined Osbourne onstage at the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2009 and, more recently, at Black Sabbath's farewell concert in Birmingham, England, on July 5. 'We are heartbroken and devastated by this loss,' Metallica added. 'He left an incredible legacy and will be sorely missed.'

Wow! That puts him in a category of his own,' the former Van Halen singer wrote on Instagram. 'Talk about commitment and loyalty to your fans.

Lady Gaga, Alice Cooper and T-Pain joined artists from Kiss, Rage Against the Machine and Foo Fighters in mourning the 'Prince of Darkness.'

Robert Irwin Forgets To Pay For Food At Restaurant, His Apology Video Wins Hearts
Wildlife conservationist Robert Irwin has made headlines after he accidentally forgot to pay for his food at a restaurant in Australia. Robert is the son of the late Crocodile Hunter Steve Irwin. He publicly acknowledged his mistake and apologised for the same in a video posted on social media. The reel has since gone viral and received a lot of interest. Robert also did something special to make amends, and his gesture is winning many hearts online. Robert starts the video by saying, "So I have a funny story. I'm road-tripping down the East Coast of Australia at the moment, and I stopped in Coffs Harbour, which is a beautiful coastal town in northern New South Wales, for a bit of dinner. Found a great restaurant, ordered a takeaway salad." Also Read: Viral Video Showing 8-Year-Old Shopping For Sauce Alone In China Wins Hearts Online He went on to explain that he found the restaurant (The Jetty Pavilion) quite packed. He ran into many people who wanted to take a photo with him. He obliged them, but noted that "It turned into a bit of a frenzy. It was a little bit of a flurry there for a minute." Despite this chaos, Robert said that the service was quick. He added, "They got the salad done super fast, and I made sure I said hi to absolutely everyone." He then greeted people one last time, wished them goodnight and left with his food. He only realised the next morning that he had not paid for it. "I just did the old dine and dash and didn't even realise I had done it. I felt terrible," he narrated. After this, Robert reached out to the restaurant and offered to pay them in some way. They declined and asked him to only leave a good review online instead. Robert decided to go the extra mile and take advantage of his large Instagram following (he currently has around 7.6 million followers) to do the restaurant a good turn. He called on his followers to support The Jetty Pavilion in Coffs Harbour. He called them "a fantastic local business," and praised the "great team, great food, and amazing atmosphere." He ended the video by thanking the restaurant and apologising again. He promised to return to Coffs Harbour and pay them for the salad in person. He declared, "Today is not the day I start my life of crime; as much as the tabloids would love that, it's not happening." The official page of the restaurant reacted to Robert's video in the comments. They wrote, "Ohhhh my goodness! We were just out on a family walk to Woolgoolga Waterfall and came back to see this! Thank you soooo much for visiting our venue, we're honestly blown away. Being from a humble little coastal town, it means the world to us to have you stop by. We're all huge fans and truly appreciate the shoutout. We can only imagine how hard it must be to enjoy a quiet meal without being bombarded, so thank you again for choosing us, and no stress about missing the payment! We'd absolutely love to have you back anytime... we might even have to name a salad after you." View this post on Instagram A post shared by Robert Irwin (@robertirwinphotography) Also Read: Man's UberEats Order Gets Delivered To Ireland Instead Of Australia By Mistake This viral video has led to Robert receiving a lot of appreciation online. Here's how some people reacted in the comments section: "Love this - best gift for a small business." "As a chef and restaurant manager, this is both extremely flattering and overwhelmingly terrifying. Pray for the staff." "Not Robert being a salad criminal." "An accidental dine and dash! You're such a good person for showing that place some love!" "As a small business owner, I can confirm that you just did the absolute most WONDERFUL thing for them by doing this!! Such a kind (and life-changing) gesture." "That is the absolute cutest and most honest thing I've seen all day, you really did them a solid with that wonderful review, love it!" "I'm from the USA, and I'm following too! Maybe someday I will visit Australia and get to come in and eat." "Just when we thought we couldn't love him anymore? Zing!"

Troy Deeney tips 'exceptional' Chelsea star for Barcelona or Real Madrid move
Joao Pedro has only just signed for Chelsea – but former teammate Troy Deeney believes the Brazilian could soon be attracting interest from other top clubs in Europe. The Brighton forward was wanted by several Premier League clubs this summer, but ultimately joined Chelsea for a fee of £60million. The Brazilian scored ten league goals last season and provides further depth to Chelsea's attacking options after the signing of Liam Delap from Ipswich Town. Pedro is eligible to play for Chelsea in their Club World Cup quarter-final clash with Palmeiras, but may not be rushed into first-team action having been on holiday prior to his move. However, former Watford teammate Deeney believes Pedro has all the qualities to shine in Enzo Maresca's side when he gets the chance. Wake up to find news on your club in your inbox every morning with Metro's Football Newsletter. Sign up to our newsletter and then select your team in the link we'll send you so we can get football news tailored to you. Asked what Chelsea can expect from their new signing, Deeney told talkSPORT: 'He'll bring an intensity – that's what Joao will bring. He's obviously an exceptional football player. 'We were just talking about the social media clips Chelsea have put up on training and he's throwing his weight around already.' 'He is all or nothing. I think the misconception is that he's a troublemaker – he's absolutely not that at all. 'He's passionate, he's energetic, he wants to win and play every minute of every game, but I think at Chelsea now you're going to see the real Joao Pedro who is one that enjoys competition and believes he should be starting for Brazil. 'I've seen this player since he was 18 years old, and the mentality has not changed one bit. it's always been 'I want to be the best; I want to play for my national team, and I want to be the new R9 (Ronaldo)'.' Pedro will first face stiff competition to nail down a regular starting berth in Chelsea's starting XI, especially with Borussia Dortmund's Jamie Gittens also expected to arrive to provide further competition in the forward areas. More Trending But Deeney is confident that it won't be long before Pedro starts proving his talents for both club and country, and believes Barcelona and Real Madrid could well be the next destination for the 23-year-old. 'If Chelsea start competing both in the Champions League and in the Premier League, he will be part of that vehicle,' Deeney added when asked if Pedro's national team ambitions were realistic. 'When you look at the Brazilian national team, it's not as strong as some of the teams we've seen over the years so he will look at that and say 'Yes I can do that (get in the team)'. 'I think if he does well for two years there, Real Madrid and Barcelona will come knocking and Chelsea have a model of buying young and selling on for more than what they paid for.'

Home News Bad news for Turkey, China, Pakistan, Bangladesh as India marks big defense leap with MACH 8 missile, it can travel…, can destroy… Bad news for Turkey, China, Pakistan, Bangladesh as India marks big defense leap with MACH 8 missile, it can travel…, can destroy… The ET-LDHCM, which boasts a top speed of Mach 8 (approximately 11,000 km/h), can deliver swift and devastating strikes deep into enemy territory, including targets in China and Pakistan. Extended Trajectory-Long Duration Hypersonic Cruise Missile (ET-LDHCM) New Delhi: In a massive development that promises to boost the country's defense capabilities, India is preparing to test its most advanced indigenously developed hypersonic missile — the Extended Trajectory-Long Duration Hypersonic Cruise Missile (ET-LDHCM). According to a report by Dainik Jagran, the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) is working on a classified initiative called Project Vishnu,. The moot aim of the project is to develop a missile that could potentially shift the military balance in Asia. The missile is being developed entirely with indigenous technology. The ET-LDHCM, which boasts a top speed of Mach 8 (approximately 11,000 km/h), can deliver swift and devastating strikes deep into enemy territory, including targets in China and Pakistan. Here are some of the key features: It carries up to 2,000 kg of steel, explosives or nuclear vengeance. It is designed for both conventional and nuclear missions The missile can carry warheads weighing between 1,000 and 2,000 kg over a range of approximately 1,500 km. According to defence sources, the missile's velocity and evasive mid-flight manoeuvrability make it nearly impossible to intercept with current radar and air defence systems. At the core of the ET-LDHCM is an advanced scramjet engine, which uses atmospheric oxygen for fuel combustion, allowing sustained hypersonic speeds for extended durations. Already tested for 1,000 seconds on the ground, it is now ready to roar through the air. No curves, no arcs and no easy trajectory to track. It is made of metals that do not melt even at 2,000°C, materials that do not blink when the missile rips through the atmosphere and coatings that laugh at oxidation. What makes ET-LDHCM different from others is its flexibility. The missile can be launched from land-based launchers, aircraft, or naval platforms. This has expanded India's tactical and strategic strike options. Its pinpoint accuracy and ability to evade interception make it suitable for targeting enemy command centres, radar installations, naval assets, and fortified bunkers. The successful deployment of the ET-LDHCM is expected to give India a significant strategic advantage. With its high speed, long range, advanced manoeuvrability, and resilience in extreme conditions, the missile stands out as a powerful addition to the nation's defence capabilities.
