\"\"A COVID Sports Update…<\/p>\n

\"\"NASCAR<\/a> is starting back up with a race on May 17th.<\/p>\n

Over a 10-day period, they plan to run seven races at tracks in Charlotte, North Carolina and Darlington, South Carolina. There won’t be any fans, but the races will be broadcast on Fox.<\/p>\n

\"\"NBC<\/a> is airing a virtual Kentucky Derby<\/a> tomorrow, featuring all 13 horses ever to win the Triple Crown facing off in a computer-generated race.<\/p>\n

\"\"The Little League World Series<\/a> has been canceled for the first time ever. It’s been running since 1947.<\/p>\n

\"\"And the Fortnite World Cup<\/a> is off. This is the first cancellation in the two-year history of the event.<\/p>\n

\n

\"\"Apple<\/a> is testing software that makes it easier to unlock your iPhone without using Face ID and while wearing a mask.<\/p>\n

\"\"Right now, if you\u2019re wearing a mask, you need to lift your mask to unlock an iPhone with Face ID. Otherwise, there\u2019s a small but annoying delay between when the phone realizes it can\u2019t see your face and when it presents the screen to enter in a passcode.<\/p>\n

With the software that is now being tested, Apple simplifies the unlock process for folks wearing masks by bringing the passcode field to the main screen. All you need to do is swipe up if you\u2019re wearing a mask, and you\u2019ll skip the Face ID display and enter in a code instead.<\/p>\n

\n

\"\"\"\" \u00a0\u00a0Mattel<\/a> is saluting coronavirus frontliners with their own line of action figures.<\/p>\n

Doctors, nurses, grocery store workers and delivery drivers are part of 16 new action figures available on the Mattel website. Proceeds will benefit a fund that supports healthcare workers.<\/p>\n

\n

Here\u2019s to our heroes! Check out the new @FisherPrice<\/a> #ThankYouHeroes<\/a> collection designed to honor & give back to the healthcare heroes on the front lines of the fight against COVID-19, & to thank the everyday heroes keeping our communities up and running https:\/\/t.co\/nTlR718Y7c<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/qynya7FBYA<\/a><\/p>\n
