The ship carrying the mysterious Antikythera mechanism is thought to have sunk in the Aegean Sea over 2,000 years ago during the Roman era. It was found by sponge divers in 1900 off Point Glyphadia on the Greek island of Antikythera. Underwater archeologists have been exploring the site ever since. The bearded statue head bears a strong resemblance to how Hercules was depicted in another statue, the Farnese Hercules. This led the archeologists to suggest that this “Hercules of Antikythera” head “probably” belongs to a headless statue currently displayed in the National Archaeological Museum in Athens, which was excavated in 1900 by the original discoverers of the wreck....

With one solitary exception, every Democrat since 1940 has opted for a sitting U.S. Senator as their first choice for Vice President. From Tim Kaine all the way back to Harry Truman, the Senate has served as the recruiting place for running mates.

The ensemble cast of the Umbrella Academy recreated the fan-favorite moment from the first season. During the pilot, each cast member busted out their dance moves while Tiffany’s ’80s pop hit, “I Think We’re Alone Now” played in the scene. Towards the end of the promo, Justin H. Min, who plays Ben Hargreeves, showed off the sign, which has the premiere date on it. As a fan of the show, I think Min is an interesting choice to make the announcement....

The order extends to light-, medium- and heavy-duty vehicles. Traditional hybrids and newer mild-hybrid technology are not counted. Separately, President Biden will direct the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the U.S. Department of Transportation to change the rollbacks of Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) standards that were set into motion by the Trump Administration.

If you only tuned into the game late, you probably wondered where it came from. While it’s hard to say for sure whether it came on a hit from a Boston College player, or accidentally from his own teammate, the play from where it happened is undeniable.

The American Independence Party (AIP) named West as the VP alongside independent presidential candidate Roque “Rocky” De La Fuente, and neither had a say in it. The reason why West was chosen for VP? “Well, he wasn’t available for President,” AIP Chairman Markham Robinson told Newsweek. The AIP picked West because of his political views, as well as his celebrity connections. Robinson explained having a former endorsement from Elon Musk—who he called “one of the smartest people in the world—secured confidence in West, as did West’s reliance on the Bible to enforce his points....

Walker, a former football star, has been endorsed by former President Donald Trump and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, as the GOP hopes to reclaim one of the Georgia Senate seats it lost in the close January 2021 runoffs. The race could also determine which party controls the Senate, as the chamber is evenly split.

“Velocity” is narrated by a twentysomething from Milwaukee named Will who just lost a close friend in a highway accident.

BetOnline, for example, has a schedule of simulated matchups people can wager on and streams the games on Twitch. It usually offers three games per day. But no sportsbook can claim to be an innovator in the ‘Madden’ gambling game. That’s because Lil Wayne was slinging thousands of dollars on CPU vs....
