Sturridge looked furious at Balotelli for questioning @placeholder's authority and taking the spot-kick | Steven Gerrard might have made a big deal over Mario Balotelli's insistence on taking Liverpool's penalty in their 1-0 win over Besiktas, but the Liverpool captain's comments from earlier in the season indicate the striker was right to take the ball from Jordan Henderson. Injured midfielder Gerrard, working as a ITV pundit for Liverpool's first-leg Europa League win, accused Balotelli of showing 'disrespect' and labelled him 'mischievous' after he took the winning penalty ahead of stand-in skipper Henderson. But with Balotelli having missed just two of his 29 career penalties, Gerrard spoke out earlier this season to confirm that the £16million summer signing would be Brendan Rodgers' second-choice spot-kick taker.

Putin has already served two terms as the country's president from 2000 to 2008.

Variety calls "The Interview" an "alleged satire that's about as funny as a communist food shortage, and just as protracted." Yet this "comedy" about two TV guys tasked with assassinating North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un has sparked a cyberterror campaign that amounts to extortion. What is being threatened? Well, it started with the leaking of Sony emails by online hackers, which has caused tremendous embarrassment to the company and a little humor for the rest of us. But now hackers claiming to be the "Guardians of Peace" -- the group that said it was behind the Sony hack -- seem to have quashed not only the New York premier planned for Thursday, but caused Sony today to announce that it would cancel the film's December 25 theatrical release.

"If they're wounded on one day, they can be in @placeholder the third day. | Washington (CNN) -- One of the most famous veterans of the "Greatest Generation" has joined the ranks of recently injured members of the military at the Walter Reed Army Medical Center. Former Sen. Bob Dole was so badly wounded 65 years ago that he almost didn't make it off the battlefield. Now, he is recovering from surgery alongside troops injured in Iraq and Afghanistan. "I'm just sort of one of the group. We show up at 10 o'clock and do our stuff," Dole said as he pedaled a stationary bike during a morning physical therapy session. Dole, who turns 87 this month, is at Walter Reed for rehabilitation connected to knee replacement surgery. A bout with pneumonia lengthened his post-op recuperation, so he's been with the young troops since they arrived from the battlefield.

"I think that the @placeholder in part inspired what has happened in Egypt. | (CNN) -- In a few breathtaking weeks, the winds of change whipped from Tunisia east to Egypt and Jordan, bringing down two regimes and putting the third on notice that it must make democratic changes. Now analysts, and a world suddenly focused on the region, are wondering whether those winds will continue blowing east into Iran and bring real democratic change or, instead, amount to only a whisper. A year and a half after the Iranian regime brutally suppressed the so-called Green Movement, a new test of its openness to reform and patience may come Monday. The government -- which Friday said the toppling of President Hosni Mubarak in Egypt "joyfully" coincided with the anniversary of Iran's 1979 Islamic Revolution -- has rounded up activists after Iran's two leading opposition figures called for a rally Monday in support of the uprisings in North Africa and the Middle East.

VIDEO Scroll down to watch the incredible highlights of the 'rookie' @placeholder | Catch him if you can. Unfortunately for the entire MotoGP field in 2014, keeping pace with Marc Marquez has proved totally impossible this season. The world champion made it 10 wins from as many races this year after triumphing at Indianapolis on Sunday. The defending world champ shattered the series’ previous record for the youngest driver to win 10 in a row. Mike Hailwood was 24 years and 86 days old when he did it in 1964. Marquez is 21 years, 174 days. With his dominance so great, questions of whether he will retain the title have long since passed - replaced with whether the Spaniard can clean sweep all 18 races this term. Marquez is the first rider since Mick Doohan in 1997 to win 10 successive premier class races.

Family members subsequently gathered at the church, @placeholder, where the bus had been heading. | (CNN) -- A youth pastor and his pregnant wife were among the three people killed when a bus overturned Saturday afternoon in Indiana, a deacon from the pastor's church said Sunday. The bus was returning from a camp in Michigan, said Indianapolis Mayor Greg Ballard. Chad Phelps, pastor at Colonial Hills Baptist Church, and his wife, Courtney, were expecting their second child next month, Deacon Jeff Leffew said. The third fatality was Tonya Weindorf, a mother of five acting as a chaperone on the trip, Leffew said. "They are with God in heaven right now.

Two years after the great Frankel had ended his career with victory in the Qipco Champion Stakes for the late Sir Henry Cecil, his little brother, trained by Cecil’s widow Jane, lifted the same Group One prize. For a few strides well inside the furlong, it looked as if jockey James Doyle’s efforts to make all the running would be in vain as Noble Mission was headed by Al Kazeem but the 7-1 shot refused to buckle as he bravely thrust his head back in front.

Nathan Lyon and Michael Clarke of @placeholder celebrate after claiming victory in day five of the First Test match between Australia and India | Australian cricket coach Darren Lehmann doubts Michael Clarke has played his last game for Australia. But the Australian captain faces a series of serious hurdles as he attempts to take part in the one-day World Cup, which starts on February 14. Clarke overcame a left hamstring injury to play the first Test against India, but suffered a flare-up of his degenerative back condition on day one. Clarke retired hurt, returning to the crease a day later and completing a courageous hundred. The 33-year-old then tweaked his right hamstring while fielding on day five, with scans confirming he will miss the rest of the four-Test series.

It also renewed its request for @placeholder authorities "to cooperate fully with the Commission of Inquiry, including by granting it immediate, full and unfettered access throughout Syria." | (CNN) -- Diplomats attending the U.N. General Assembly used the spotlight and worked the sidelines in an attempt to make headway toward resolving the Syrian crisis as a graphic video emerged Friday that underscored the consequences of failure to do so. "What has the international community done to stop this carnage?" asked Turkey's foreign minister, Ahmet Davutoglu. "Literally nothing. We have yet to see a single effective action to save innocent lives." The inability of the Security Council to act, he said, "encourages the Syrian nation to kill even more people." Turkey is providing shelter for 90,000 Syrian refugees, but the rest of the world needs to do its share, Davutoglu said. "Our inability to act becomes a tool in the hands of despots and destructive regimes to demolish the cities, towns and villages, massacre civilians and make a mockery of the civilized world and the United Nations."
