LOS ANGELES, Oct. 6 (UPI) -- The documentary Dolph Lundgren: Unbreakable, on digital video on demand Tuesday, follows the actor's 40-year career through his recent health crisis. For Lundgren, the ups and downs are evidence of his perseverance.
In a recent Zoom interview with UPI, Lundgren, 68, reflected on his career again. He said he values his ability to bounce back from setbacks.
"Part of life is being around to fight another day," Lundgren said. "It's not all successful, great battles. It's like the small battles that get you to the big one, and that's where you make a name for yourself, or that's where you win the war."
From Arnold to Sly
By 1982, Lundgren was a martial artist with a Masters Degree in chemical engineering from the University of Sydney. He was dating singer Grace Jones, and got his first taste of Hollywood when he joined her on the set of Conan the Destroyer with Arnold Schwarzenegger.

The White House on Thursday withdrew the nomination of Oklahoma state trooper Lance Schroyer to lead Immigration and Customs Enforcement after a Republican blocked his confirmation hearing.
Schroyer's nomination stalled after Senate Homeland Security Chair Rand Paul (R-Ky.), a foe of Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin, requested that the Department of Homeland Security provide his committee with more information about its investigation into two ICE and Border Patrol agents accused of killing two U.S. citizens in Minneapolis in January.
Paul, who as chair controls the committee's hearing and markup agenda, did not oppose Schroyer's nomination, per Drew Carmichael, a spokesperson for the senator.
Schroyer was a surprise pick to lead ICE. He had no experience leading a major law enforcement agency, let alone an organization the size of ICE. But Schroyer has close ties with the DHS secretary. Schroyer at one point led Mullin's security detail and Mullin made Schroyer a senior adviser at DHS.
The White House and DHS did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

ONE Championship is back with another captivating triple-header weekend, and it all gets started with two Muay Thai showcases in The Inner Circle 30 and ONE Friday Fights 170.
The world's largest martial arts organization will broadcast The Inner Circle 30 and ONE Friday Fights 170 live in Asia primetime from Bangkok's Lumpinee Stadium on Friday, September 11.
In the main event of The Inner Circle 30, leading contender Yod-IQ Or Pimolsri will collide with former ONE Bantamweight Muay Thai World Champion Rambolek Chor Ajalaboon for a chance to claim the gold. However, since Rambolek failed to make weight for the contest, he is not eligible to win the belt.
Plus, Seksan Or Kwanmuang will make his last walk to the ring before he rides off into the sunset. In his retirement match, the bantamweight Muay Thai star will face longtime rival "Elbow Zombie" Muangthai PK Saenchai for the sixth, and final, time.
Then later, in the headline attraction of ONE Friday Fights 170, Yodlekpet "The Destroyer" Or Atchariya and Pompet Pongsuphan PK will look to settle their unfinished business in a flyweight Muay Thai trilogy.

When a subject has been as exhaustively covered — and as infamous — as Elon Musk, the electric-car-entrepreneur-turned-rocket-man-turned-richest-billionaire-in-the-universe-turned-Twitter-disruptor-turned-DOGE-destroyer-turned-God-only-knows-what-he'll-do-next, reviews of a documentary about him tend to lead by plucking out the film's incendiary bits of investigative reportage, the ones that feel worthy of a news headline. "Musk," Alex Gibney's 3-hour-and-45-minute documentary about the tech bro who would be king, has a handful of those.
The biggest revelation, to me, was the film's detailed history of Musk's attempt to put a self-driving car on the market — a technology that's sure to be here at some point, though Musk, in his race to be first, was far too eager to announce that it had already happened. Tesla released its Autopilot driver-assist system in 2015 (and then the Full Self-Driving Beta program in 2020), marketing the new technology with ads that exaggerated the car's powers. And so people were suckered. From the outset, there were accidents. More than 60 fatalities have been linked to Tesla's driver-assistance systems. Talk about something that could put a dent in your image! But Musk, for the most part, succeeded in hushing up the lawsuits, the federal investigations, and the fatal crashes, which were evidence of a recklessness that should have given the whole world pause.

SEOUL, Sept 7 (Reuters) - North Korean leader Kim Jong Un said the country's newest destroyer would be part of a nuclear response system ‌and could deliver "annihilating retaliatory strikes", state media KCNA reported on Monday, ‌although it did not say whether the vessel would carry nuclear weapons.
North Korea has accelerated efforts to modernise its navy as Kim pursues a broader expansion of the country's nuclear-capable forces.
At a commissioning ceremony in the eastern port city of Wonsan on Sunday, Kim said the new ship's deployment to the sea east of the Korean Peninsula sent ‌a clear signal to North ⁠Korea's adversaries.
"The time has come for us to exercise our sovereignty at sea and under water," Kim said, according to KCNA.
The ⁠5,000-ton-class destroyer, the "Kang Kon", is the second warship of its class to enter service, following the commissioning of the "Choe Hyon" destroyer on North Korea's west coast about three months earlier, KCNA cited Kim as saying.

CAIRO (AP) — The U.S. military on Saturday said it struck three Iranian oil tankers after Navy warships were targeted with missiles, warning that it would "if necessary, destroy Iran's limited and exposed oil fleet."
The strikes — a day after President Donald Trump sought to minimize the conflict as "small potatoes" — keep up a new tilt back toward fighting after six months of on-again, off-again war that began with U.S. and Israeli attacks on Feb. 28. Both sides have sought to inflict both military and economic pain, and negotiations have collapsed.
The military's statement said a U.S. aircraft carrier and a destroyer evaded "multiple unprovoked Iranian attacks" while patrolling in the region and no U.S. personnel were hurt. It said two Iranian oil carriers were "permanently disabled" and the third, unladen one, was destroyed.
The U.S. statement said the tankers were part of a shadow network helping to fund Iran's powerful Revolutionary Guard and its armed proxies in the region.
Earlier, Iranian state TV had said four U.S. missiles struck a tanker about six miles (10 kilometers) from Kharg Island, home to a terminal through which the country exports most of its oil. Kharg Island been repeatedly targeted during the war, including U.S. strikes on military sites there in March.

The Los Angeles Lakers are now undoubtedly Luka Doncic's team, even though he has been with them for just over 18 months. LeBron James is now calling the Northeast home as a member of the Philadelphia 76ers, and Doncic has already started to flex his leadership muscles.
He recently held a minicamp for his teammates in his native Slovenia, and in addition to basketball activities, everyone got to take part in some golf and other fun excursions. It was a nice gesture by Doncic as the team prepares for the upcoming NBA season and hopes to prove the pundits who are doubting it wrong.
Forward Ziaire Williams, who is one of nine new players on the Lakers' roster, had some very complimentary things to say about Doncic's leadership, via Benjamin Royer of the Southern California News Group.
"Williams said Doncic 'has big kid energy, like a young, youthful spirit,' adding that he could tell how much Doncic cared about winning games but also how much he cares about his teammates.
"'I can tell (Doncic's) leadership. He wants to step up even more this year,' Williams said. 'I'm excited, man. I'm really excited to play with him. And of course, when we're playing basketball, it's just he makes the game just so easy and looks so simple. He's going to make my life a lot easier for sure.'"

The Lakers have added Ziaire Williams to their roster this season on a one-year, $3 million deal to add some bench depth for wings who are also lob threats. He ended the 2025-26 season averaging 10.2 points, 2.4 rebounds, 1.1 **** ists, and 1.4 steals while shooting 42.5% from the field and 34.3% from beyond the three-point arc.
Ahead of the upcoming 2026-27 season, Williams spoke to Benjamin Royer of the OC Register and discussed several topics related to joining the Lakers.
"I just thought it was a great opportunity," Williams said on why he chose the Lakers despite averaging a career-high in points with the Nets,
"Being that big wing, versatile player that they needed, I just thought it was a great opportunity for me to be a Laker. Even if the same team was in New Orleans or Milwaukee, wherever – just the opportunity that was here and the team that they had, I just thought it was the best fit."
"And then just being back home in L.A. is the cherry on top. Being able to play in front of my family and my friends, and I'm super excited."

#Lakers #williams #Opportunity #ziaire

Ziaire Williams has the opportunity to become a key contributor for the Los Angeles Lakers this season. The 6-foot-9 forward, whom the team signed to a one-year, $2.45 million contract in July, is not a finished product yet, but if he continues to improve and refine different aspects of his game, he could perhaps earn more playing time than he has gotten thus far in his NBA career.
Last season, he averaged 10.2 points and 1.4 steals in 22.9 minutes a game with the Brooklyn Nets. At this point in his career, the 24-year-old is known as a capable defender who has ample athleticism.
Per Benjamin Royer of the Southern California News Group, Williams talked to coach JJ Redick and general manager Rob Pelinka about his role. Redick and Pelinka laid out a specific role for him on the defensive end.
"Williams said in his early conversations with Lakers coach JJ Redick and President of Basketball Operations Rob Pelinka, they have told him that their focus for him is "first and foremost, being a main defender, point-of-attack defender."
The Lakers have lacked plus defenders on the perimeter for the last few years. In Williams, Quentin Grimes and Matisse Thybulle, they have three men who could help fill that void right away.

Aaron Donald had a second workout at the Rams' team facility as he continues to decide whether to unretire. Coach Sean McVay was asked about the defensive tackle's "tryout," as it was designated on the NFL's personnel notice Sunday, but didn't allow much.
He noted that team personnel were present with team equipment, requiring the workout to be reported to the league.
"I'm not trying to be like, coy with it," McVay said, Benjamin Royer of the ocregister.com. "It's semantical. It's part of his process that he's going through. It just allows us to be able to use football equipment and it's very similar to what the other workout was. . . . That was just another part of his process."
Donald initially worked out for the Rams on Aug. 5 to evaluate how he felt.
It appears he has had other workouts at the team facility without team personnel present and without use of team equipment, via a video posted by 2Tenths Speed & Agility on Aug. 10. That would not require the Rams to report it to the league.

Setbacks are nothing new to Gingsanglek Wor ******* chamnarn, and neither is the hunger that carries him past them.
He returns with a renewed focus for his bantamweight Muay Thai co-main event clash against American newcomer Dmitri Ramos at The Inner Circle 26. The entire card will stream live in Asia primetime from Bangkok's renowned Lumpinee Stadium this Friday, August 14, exclusively for subscribers at live.onefc.com.
That evening, the Thai finisher will seek a return to the win column after a knockout loss to four-time Muay Thai World Champion Yodlekpet "The Destroyer" Or Atchariya, which halted a three-fight winning streak that included destructive first-round finishes over Thant Zin and Alexey Balyko.
Rather than let that setback linger, Gingsanglek has channeled the disappointment into motivation as he aims to take another significant stride in his bid to secure the life-changing US$100,000 main roster contract.

DAZN, 5:00 am ET Teremoana Teremoana vs DeAndre Savage
From Gold Coast, Australia. Teremoana was a breakout from the 2024 Paris Olympics, arguably the 2nd best in the big boy division. Unfortunately, he caught a bad bracket and had to face professional Olympian Bakhodir Jalolov before the medal rounds. But, he earned himself enough attention to kickstart a pro career, and headlines the show in just his 12th professional outing. Savage is a 35 year old American with an 11-1 (11 KO) record, and much will be said about that in the commentary buildup to the main event. But, he's fought most of his career in Colombia and Mexico, and his two fights in the USA resulted in a no contest and his only pro loss. Michael Zerafa appears in support here against BoxRec's 194th ranked middleweight, Alejandro Ortiz. Teremoana is very exciting… But, a 5 am Wednesday start for a relatively unknown prospect isn't exactly a live coverage gold mine. So, this will be a follow along thread in The Feed!, and I'd expect at least one or two of the staffers here to jump in for the main event.
From Johnson City, Tennessee. It's the greatest event in the boxing-adjacent business, and arguably one of the greatest sporting shows of any kind in modern America. If you're new to the Brawl, here's the recap of Brawl #13 . Dozens of amateur fights with three one-minute rounds, fast pace, lots of action and excitement, and an unconventional but delightful commentary team guiding you through it all. The main event here features Frankie LaPenna, a Michigan man who apparently got online famous doing videos while wearing a fake ****** , taking on brawl regular Sasquatch. Catfish Cooley is out from commentary again, with Stalekracker, a former police officer who now cooks Cajun food online to promote his thriving spice business and has a vibe that can best be described as a hybrid of Guy Fieri and Dog the Bounty Hunter, subbing in as a guest. Many beloved favorites return, including Tennessee Cornbread, Lil' Smokey, Man Bear Pig vs Hook Hogan, Big Daddy T, and Lil' Terry fighting Lil' Fire after Fire knocked out Terry's brother Larry in 10 seconds in the last brawl. It's $22.99, and it's the best entertainment value you'll ever get.

SEOUL, Aug 5 (Reuters) - North Korea's Kim Yo Jong, the powerful sister of leader Kim Jong Un, warned on Wednesday that Pyongyang would adopt "additional ‌military options" in response to what she called ****** an's transformation into a military power, ‌after Tokyo test-fired a U.S.-made Tomahawk cruise missile.
In a statement carried by state media KCNA, Kim accused ****** an of moving beyond a defensive posture and turning its armed forces into a force capable of pre-emptive attacks and overseas military operations.
She cited ****** an's recent Tomahawk test from the Aegis destroyer Chokai in the Pacific Ocean, as well as test-firings of other missiles and its participation in a U.S.-led joint military drill in the Philippines in ‌May.
Kim said that North Korea would ⁠respond in ways that made ****** an feel that its security has been exposed to greater danger. "We should make it regret," she said, in some of her ⁠strongest rhetoric toward Tokyo in recent months.

Day 7 of Cleveland Browns training camp took place Wednesday, August 5.
1. A Change at Center: Cleveland has been rolling with Elgton Jenkins at center, but that changed today, as not only was he sitting out, but Parker Brailsford was sidelined too. Luke Wypler jumped the depth chart to practice with the ones.
2. Watson Finds a Groove: It's a low bar, but the word is that QB Deshaun Watson had his best practice session by far. The stat tracker shows him throwing 7 touchdown passes, but don't be in awe of that, since some were goal line passes in 7 on 7 drills. Nonetheless, he was at least sharp in the basics on the day, which is a step forward.
3. Look Out, Malachi Corley: Last year, we saw WR Malachi Corley have success on jet sweeps. However, in addition to catching everything coming his way, WR Denzel Boston got the carry on both an end around and jet sweep today. To my surprise, it was also noted that he's been taking some reps on the return team too.
4. Growing List: Earlier, we mentioned that two centers missed practice. But the injury list in general is growing (although not everyone is an injury, like TE Joe Royer).

The Inner Circle 24 ignited Bangkok's iconic Lumpinee Stadium with another heart-racing Asia primetime event packed with explosive finishes and unforgettable performances this past Friday, July 31.
This members-only card featured four high-octane Muay Thai and MMA bouts, which streamed exclusively on live.onefc.com from "The Madison Square Garden of the East." With three of the four bouts ending in highlight-reel fashion, the show delivered non-stop thrills from beginning to end.
A new bantamweight MMA king was crowned in the main event, as Azerbaijani-Russian destroyer Elbek Alyshov turned off Enkh-Orgil Baatarkhuu's lights in the second round.
Alyshov dropped the Mongolian ******* leholder with a thunderous uppercut in the clinch, and then he followed up with relentless ground-and-pound to force the referee to wave off the contest. That spectacular performance earned him the ONE Bantamweight MMA World ******* le, as well as a US$50,000 performance bonus.
The co-main event featured another impressive display, as 19-year-old Lebanese sensation Ramadan "The Scorpion" Ondash continued his meteoric rise. Ondash edged out fellow teen star Johan "Jojo" Ghazali in a razor-close flyweight Muay Thai battle to claim a hard-fought split-decision victory.

Retired wrestling legend AJ Styles made a bold point calling out WWE for not pushing new star Bron Breakker fast enough into the world ***** le scene. Breakker was viewed as a "can't miss prospect" after an epic NXT run and a hot start to his main roster career. WWE seemed ready to push Breakker to the top after storylines with Paul Heyman, Seth Rollins and CM Punk. Recent months have seen things slowing for Breakker and seemingly distanced from the main event scene.
Styles had the following to say on his podcast about being confused at WWE's logic:
"How long are we going to wait for Bron Breakker to be Heavyweight Champion? He should be next. I think that he's definitely a star right now. Why we haven't put it on him to put the rocket up his ***** and send him to the freaking moon? I don't know why we haven't done that because he is the destroyer."
The current role of Styles sees him retired from in-ring competition but active in various background roles for WWE. Styles uses his experience of well over two decades to contribute via coaching, training and scouting for the company. The new role likely makes it more pivotal on AJ's side to see obvious new stars getting truly elevated.
One noteworthy subject here goes back to WWE's overall main event. Roman Reigns, CM Punk, and Cody Rhodes are treated on a full tier above the rest of the roster. Young stars must be presented on an equal level to these three or fans will never view them as a top name.

North Korea said on Sunday that its latest 5,000-ton destroyer tested its weapons at sea.
It's a step closer toward active duty for the warship, which had a disastrous launch in June 2025.
The warship is the second of Kim Jong Un's destroyer class for a nuclear-capable navy.
North Korea's new naval destroyer, which suffered a botched launch last May, is now seaworthy and testing its weapons systems, state media reported.
The state-run Korea Central Television aired footage on Sunday of the vessel firing its main gun and autocannon, as well as several vertically launched missiles.

Cleveland Browns general manager Andrew Berry delivered on his promise to make a “heavy investment” in the offense during the recently completed off-season.
Berry rebuilt the entire offensive line, highlighted by first-round selection Spencer Fano at left tackle, along with veteran additions Tytus Howard, Elgton Jenkins, and Zion Johnson. And, for good measure, they added tackle Austin Barber and center Parker Brailsford later in the draft.
The pass catchers also received an extreme makeover with the selections of wide receivers KC Concepcion and Denzel Boston and tight ends Joe Royer and Carsen Ryan, to go with incumbents Jerry Jeudy and Harold Fannin Jr.
Put all those together with returning running backs Quinshon Judkins, Dylan Sampson and Raheim Sanders, and the Browns appear to have a solid core on offense. They may not be fully unlocked until Berry solves the quarterback position in 2027 (or later, since this is still the Browns), but, overall, it looks like the Browns are on track.
While the offense appears to be on the upswing, it is fair to ponder who will still be on the roster when the Browns pull up stakes and move to their new stadium in Brook Park for the start of the 2029 season.

French Open champion Alexander Zverev conserved energy on Thursday when he beat Valentin Royer 6-1, 6-3, 7-6 (7-3) to reach the third round at Wimbledon.
Second seed Zverev won over 75th-ranked Frenchman Royer on centre court in 2 hours 4 minutes and next faces American Marcos Giron.
Zverev was in full control early on, winning nine games in a row to go a set and 3-0 up. He squandered a 4-2 lead in the third set but eventually crossed the line in straight sets in the tie-break.
“For two and a half sets I played an almost perfect match,” Zverev said on court.
"Then I lost a bit of focus and he used it very well. He made it very interesting in the end, but definitely happy to be through in straight sets and not have to play another set, even though I love to play here at Wimbledon!

A Ukrainian crew said its Italian tank gun hit a house that was 120 football fields away

A Ukrainian gunner said he used a tank gun to hit a house with Russian soldiers nearly 7 miles away.
He's a gunner for a B1 Centauro, an Italian wheeled tank destroyer produced in the 1990s.
Ukrainian tank and armored vehicle crews often use their guns for indirect fire like artillery.
A Ukrainian vehicle crew said it used an Italian B1 Centauro to strike a house nearly seven miles away, one of the longest indirect tank gun shots reported in the war.
"The furthest shot I had was from a closed position. It was 11 kilometers. At 11,100 meters, I hit a building directly where they were sitting," the crew's gunner from the 78th Separate Air ****** ault Brigade told Army TV, a Ukrainian channel run by the defense ministry.

President Donald Trump said the U.S. forcibly seized an Iranian-flagged cargo ship that tried to get around a naval blockade near the Strait of Hormuz on Sunday, the first such interception since the blockade of Iranian ports began last week.
Trump on social media said the ship was warned by a U.S. Navy guided missile destroyer in the Gulf of Oman to stop, but it did not. He said the Navy “stopped them right in their tracks by blowing a hole in the engineroom” and that U.S. Marines had custody of the vessel
