Euro 2020, the planet’s biggest football tournament outside the World Cup itself, was supposed to take place last year. It was instead postponed to this Summer for obvious reasons, and to celebrate, Konami’s official PES version of the tournament will begin by featuring...woefully inaccurate and/or out-of-date rosters.
President Biden spoke at the White House about a new cease-fire agreement between Israel and Hamas. The halt in fighting, brokered by Egypt, followed intense pressure from the White House to bring an end to 11 days of deadly violence.

We’ve all been there. You’re tightening a bolt into a threaded hole and it’s a bit harder than usual, and then the whole thing goes loose like the metal threads turned to cream cheese. Oops. You’ve cross threaded, over-tightened, or simply stripped the threads right out of the hole. That’s a big oops. Fear not, it’s…

The folk hero era of the long-haul truck driver in the mid-1970s pretty much peaked with C.W. McCall’s Convoy if you ask me. Truckers were occupational heroes, anti-cop freewheelers, and more importantly, they were the main listeners for local radio stations during the overnight hours. It was the federal speed limit…

Ka-thunk. I knew exactly what the sound meant, though I could barely believe it. I was in the process of moving, and I was driving a small handful of my belongings—including my (and my cat’s) pink gamer chair—to my new place in a U-Haul truck. Except the chair wasn’t in the truck anymore. It was lying in a crowded…
Here’s a nice floor plan for a normal residential block. What I immediately liked is the multipurpose room. It’s an office and lounge area which has bi-fold windows opening on to the alfresco. I also really like the front verandah. You can see that below in the front elevation photo. That’s a nice look and a little different from a lot of homes in built up residential streets.
I also think the dressing room in the master is a winner! Good kitchen too and good positioning of the laundry. Plus the hobby room is a cool idea if you ...

Everyone knows the classic toilet brush: it’s simple, it’s cheap and it gets the job done. Sort of. Regular old toilet brushes may be your go-to for cleaning, but their bristles are often too tough to get into all of the cracks and corners of your toilet bowl. Luckily, Loogeenie is going where no other toilet brush has been before.
With its slim design, the Loogeenie toilet brush combines a flexible brush head with a unique, automatic detergent dispenser to make cleaning your toilet hassle-free. Simply insert a blister pack of cleaning detergent tablets into the brush handle and ...

The E36 3 Series Compact is the best kind of E36. And I promise I’m not saying that because 318ti owner José Rodríguez Jr. forced me. It’s the smallest and lightest E36, the funkiest looking and the most under appreciated, and that combination of qualities would make any car the best version of its range.

Ford’s first electric pickup truck (actually, correction: they built a few Ranger EV trucks in the late 1990s) the 2022 F-150 Lightning, is finally here, so let’s look at the design of the thing because it’s a big deal. It’s not actually all that, um, exciting a design, if I’m being brutally honest, but that’s okay,…

450 million years ago, the first plants left aquatic life. Researchers have now succeeded in demonstrating that this colonization of land by plants was made possible by a partnership between plants and fungi. Validating this 40-year-old hypothesis allows us to understand a stage that was crucial to the development of life on Earth.
A global survey of fossil pollen has discovered that the planet's vegetation is changing at least as quickly today as it did when the last ice sheets retreated around 10,000 years ago.
A compound used widely in candles offers promise for a much more modern energy challenge -- storing massive amounts of energy to be fed into the electric grid as the need arises. Researchers show that low-cost organic compounds hold promise for storing energy that would kick in when the grid goes offline due to severe weather, and for storing renewable energy.
Some climate activists advocate large-scale tree-planting campaigns in forests around the world to suck up heat-trapping carbon dioxide and help rein in climate change.
The most populous boroughs in New York City, Queens and Brooklyn, likely served as the major hub of COVID-19 spread in the spring of 2020, a new study finds.
Analyzing data obtained with the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA), researchers found a galaxy with a spiral morphology by only 1.4 billion years after the Big Bang. This is the most ancient galaxy of its kind ever observed. The discovery of a galaxy with a spiral structure at such an early stage is an important clue to solving the classic questions of astronomy: 'How and when did spiral galaxies form?'

After lagging behind the United States and United Kingdom on the distribution of COVID-19 vaccines this spring, the European Union is on track to catch up by July. Following initial missteps, the EU has developed a better strategy on vaccine procurement. Even when in distress, the bloc has showed solidarity between its larger and smaller economies — limiting space for Russian and Chinese vaccine diplomacy in Europe — and towards the developing world, which will pay dividends in the future. By learning from its mistakes and capitalizing on international solidarity, Europe will be better equipped ...

If anyone has advice for a tired, demoralized man, please dish it out.
The Supreme Court agreed to hear a case next term that could result in a significant modification or overturn of Roe v. Wade, the 1973 case that legalized abortion nationwide. At issue is a Mississippi law that would ban the procedure after 15 weeks of gestation. That is well before a fetus is viable outside the womb and, under Roe, states may not ban abortion prior to viability.
Meanwhile, the unexpected announcement by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention that fully vaccinated people could ...
Swifts aren't called 'swifts' for nothing. They're known for being among the fastest migrating small birds around. When they aren't breeding, common swifts stay in the air most of the time -- up to 10 months of the year. Scientists had thought they travel about 500 kilometers per day on average. Now, new evidence shows that's a conservative estimate.
Biologists have used human pluripotent stem cells to grow sesame-seed-sized heart models, called cardioids, that spontaneously self-organize to develop a hollow chamber without the need of experimental scaffolds. This advance allows for the creation of some of the most realistic heart organoids to date.
A common factor called 'decision acuity' underpins diverse decision-making abilities in adolescents and young adults, suggests a new study. A large set of behavioral and neuroimaging data revealed that decision acuity is stable over time, distinct from IQ, and reduced in individuals with low general social functioning.
An international research group has now made significant progress in the further development of compact plasma accelerators, considered a promising technology for the future: With two complementary experiments, the team was able to combine two different plasma technologies for the first time and build a novel hybrid accelerator.

Social learning in orangutans is shaped by their sex. Young males learn their foraging skills from immigrant individuals, while young females get their skills by observing their mothers and other residents in the area. These different sets of ecological knowledge help secure their survival.
Theoretical physicists have analyzed data from the black hole M87* as part of the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) collaboration to test Albert Einstein's theory of general relativity. According to the tests, the size of the shadow from M87* is in excellent agreement being from a black hole in general relativity, but sets constraints on the properties of black holes in other theories.
The chemical bisphenol F (found in plastics) can induce changes in a gene that is vital for neurological development. The mechanism could explain why exposure to this chemical during the fetal stage may be connected with a lower IQ at seven years of age -- an association previously seen by the same research group.
Researchers have detected groundwater beneath a glacier in Greenland for the first time using airborne radar data. If applicable to other glaciers and ice sheets, the technique could allow for more accurate predictions of future sea-level rise.
The work is a global assessment of Earth's 92,033 debris-covered glaciers and shows that debris, taken as a whole, substantially reduces glacier mass loss.
Researchers report that they can detect showers from the debris in the path of comets that pass close to Earth orbit and return as infrequently as once every 4,000 years.
No one expected President Joe Biden to make the Israeli-Palestinian conflict a priority of his administration. He has had his hands full with critical priorities, including the coronavirus pandemic, the economy, and racial justice. Even on the Middle East, his priority has been to negotiate a return to the Iran nuclear deal, which Israel opposed, thus inclining him to forego a new front with Israel over Palestine, especially as the prospects of peace seemed remote.
But once the latest confrontation between Israelis and Palestinians erupted in April, few expected what was to come from the Biden ...

America's best selling pickup truck - the Ford F-150 - has just gone electric with the new Ford F-150 Lightning. Ford globally debuted the new F-150 Lightning just yesterday, but ahead of its official unveiling, on Tuesday, President Joe Behind had the opportunity to get behind the wheel of America's all-new electric pickup, still under its camouflage then. "This sucker's quick" is what Mr President had to say about the new Ford F-150 Lightning.

At its simplest, entanglement describes the idea that two particles can have an intrinsic connection that persists no matter how far apart they are. The particles are ethereally coupled: measure something about one particle, such as its position, and you’ll also glean information about the position of its entangled partner; make a change to one particle and your actions will teleport a corresponding change to the other, all ...

COVID-19 has triggered the greatest global economic crisis since the end of World War II. It is important, however, to keep its impact in perspective and measure it against the long-term trends of steady economic progress in the world. Despite last year’s global economic meltdown, COVID-19 will only look like a blip in the steady expansion of the global consumer class, which we define as anyone earning more than $11 per day in 2011 PPP(or approximately $12 per day in 2017 PPP). In the long-term, the forces of demographic change and productivity growth ...

There’s no doubt that the future of driving is electric. In fact, Morgan Stanley predicts that 72% of all car sales will be electric by the year 2040. Almost every major automaker has already invested billions of dollars into expanding their electric-vehicle lineups. Within 20 years, it will probably be next to impossible to actually buy a brand new car that still runs on plain ol’ gasoline. Until that day comes, though, the debate between electric car vs gas costs rages on: which one will save you the most money overall?
There’s no doubt that the future of driving is electric. In fact, Morgan Stanley predicts that 72% of all car sales will be electric by the year 2040. Almost every major automaker has already invested billions of dollars into expanding their electric-vehicle lineups. Within 20 years, it will probably be next to impossible to actually buy a brand new car that still runs on plain ol’ gasoline.

Yellowstone National Park is famous for harsh winters but a new study shows summers are also getting harsher, with August 2016 ranking as one of the hottest summers in the last 1,250 years.
Although patterns in the timing of moderate space weather events are known, the most extreme and dangerous events were thought to be random in their timing. This study found for the first time that extreme space weather occurs most frequently at predictable times during solar cycles, meaning space missions could be timed to avoid them.

In cities and counties across the country, summer youth employment programs (SYEPs) stand out as some of the largest and most high-profile youth workforce development initiatives around. At least, they did before COVID-19. Like so many other aspects of life, SYEPs were thrown into disarray last year by the social distancing measures that began in March 2020. SYEPs typically place youth ages 14 to 24 in community-based or private sector jobs for 20-25 hours per week for about six weeks in the summer months. But the onset of stay-at-home ...

We have already reported to you that MG Motor will launch an all-new SUV in the Indian market by the end of 2021. Likely to be called the MG Astor - as was revealed by a trademark filing by the company - it is essentially an ICE-powered version of theZS EV, which is simply called the MG ZS in markets abroad. Although MG continues to sell the ZS EV in its pre-facelift guise in India, the ICE-powered ZS has already been updated last year in international markets. In fact, this facelifted version of petrol-powered MG ZSis what ...

Going on sale on June 1, “Everyone is Awesome” is a 346-piece Lego set meant to celebrate the diversity of Lego fans and the world around them. It features 11 faceless monochrome minifigures arranged in the colors of the LGBTQIA+ rainbow flag. It’s a bit on-the-nose, but I dig it.
The mixed-martial artist fighter Beneil Dariush had a big night on Saturday, beating a UFC lightweight title contender and solidifying Dariush’s status as a title contender himself. But, afterward, Dariush declined to call out a fighter he wanted next, instead, calling out Tesla CEO Elon Musk.
When Ford and Mahindra called off their joint venture earlier this year, it inevitably killed a lot of models that were in the pipeline as part of the JV from both companies. Perhaps the most important of these was the Mahindra XUV700-based (W601) Ford C-SUV that was being developed for India. Internally codenamed the CX757, it would have been a very important model for Ford India, bridging the gap between the Ecosport and the Endeavour. More importantly, Ford was quite far into the development of this C-SUV, even having finalized its design by Pininfarina.

For at least the last decade Acura hasn’t really known what it wants to be. It has traded away much of its sporty reputation for luxury crossover sales. It dabbled in performance hybrids to support its NSX supercar, but many of those have since been dropped. Acura lost its heritage, walked away from a history of…
So, not to make your day weird or anything, but I happen to know that the illustrator of this 1957 Ford Taunus brochure sprayed that kid with hot dog water to get the dog to stay locked on to him for the five hours it took to make this illustration, and I’m pretty sure after this drawing was done, the dog ate one of…
We often discuss the effects that the rampant popularity of cars and SUVs has had on pedestrian death rates, but another related and important stat to look at is cyclist death rates. A look into these may point to a decrease in 2020, but when you account for the lower amount of driving we did, it’s still concerning.

The fourth-generation Skoda Octavia was already supposed to be launched in India by now. However, due to the second wave of pandemic along with the resultant lockdown in many states, the automaker had no choice other than to postpone the launch. That said, Skoda Auto India has now revealed that the new Octavia will be launching in June 2021, with deliveries starting immediately.
The latest-gen Skoda Octavia was initially planned for an April 2021 launch in India
The deadliest fighting in years between Israel and Hamas had by mid-May killed over 200 Palestinians in Gaza, including dozens of children, and at least 10 in Israel. Both sides are accused of violating international law – Israel for its alleged disproportionate bombardment of residential buildings and Palestinian groups for firing rockets on Israeli cities.
International law professor Asaf Lubin explains the rules of warfare – and whether they can be enforced.

More than six months after the astonishing polling embarrassment in the 2020 U.S. elections, survey experts examining what went wrong are uncertain about what led to the sharpest discrepancy between the polls and popular vote outcome since Ronald Reagan defeated Jimmy Carter in a near-landslide in 1980.

Community storytelling can help participants remember, cope with and heal from traumatic experiences.Marc Romanelli/Getty Images
President Joe Biden began his presidency by memorializing the 400,000 American lives that had been lost up to that point to COVID-19. The ceremony, held on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial, was arguably the first official moment of nationwide public mourning in the U.S.
“To heal, we must remember,” Biden said. “It’s important to do that as a nation.”
But how do we acknowledge our collective suffering as the toll of the pandemic continues to grow, with hundreds of thousands possibly ...

Give Your Traffic a Boost
Traffic is the lifeblood of a successful site. Without it, you’re basically wasting your time. In light of this, here are a few useful tactics you can implement to drive the right visitors to your site:
The LS was the last Lincoln sedan offered with a manual transmission although few buyers took the company up on the offer. Today’s Nice Price or No Dice candidate is one of those few. Could that factor make its price a deal for many?
We all can agree that the past year has been a tough one. As the world continues to deal with the pandemic, we’re seeing more and more people looking to start a business. This may seem counterintuitive, as the impact from COVIDhas created enormous disruption to our global economy. While we still have a long way until we fully recover economically, business founders are optimistic and looking to the future. They’re deciding that even with the current state of the world, the time to start that new business is now. And, with the immersion of so many new ...

The 2021 Guide to Mineral Sunscreen (for Every Skin Tone)

Can Holotropic Breathwork Mimic a Psychedelic Experience?
Can Holotropic Breathwork Mimic a Psychedelic Experience?
After LSD was outlawed in the United States in the late 1960s and all research on the substance was shut down, the renowned LSD-facilitated therapy researcher Stanislav Grof sought new ways to access similar non-ordinary states of consciousness. He came up with a breathwork practice that is at once simple and dramatic, involving deep and fast breaths that can bring on a vivid, dreamlike state.
The practice, which Grof named Holotropic Breathwork—“holotropic” means “moving toward wholeness”—is a powerful tool for self-exploration, healing, and growth. It’s founded ...

Launched last month, the Hero HF 100 is the most affordable motorcycle in Hero MotoCorp?s entire product range. It costs INR 49,400*. It wouldn?t be incorrect to say that it?s actually a cheaper variant of the Hero HF Deluxe that?s available at a starting price of INR 51,700*. So, what makes it more affordable? Let?s find out in this video.
The Hero HF 100 is available in only a single variant with kickstart. Hence, it is fair to compare it with the entry-level kickstart variant of the Hero HF Deluxe. The home-grown two-wheeler giant has made several changes to ...

It’s not just aesthetics that make our garden storage ideas essential. Finding your secateurs or garden shears can be nigh-on dangerous if the shed’s piled high with machinery, toys, cushions and garden furniture.
No one wants to face a messy garden, let alone be hit square-on with a lawnmower. So it’s important to keep every element of the outdoors in check. Up for consideration are storage for garden furniture when the heavens open, secure storage for expensive power tools, and a place where compost, pots and seeds are dry and easy to access.
The level of equity homeowners have is at an all-time high. According to the U.S. Census, over 38% of owner-occupied homes are owned free and clear, meaning they don’t have a mortgage. Those with a mortgage are seeing their equity skyrocket too. Every time real estate values increase, homeowners get a dollar-for-dollar gain in their home equity.

Black Americans’ covid-19 vaccination rates are still lagging months into the nation’s campaign, while Hispanics are closing the gap and Native Americans show the highest rates overall, according to federal data obtained by KHN.
The data, provided by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in response to a public records request, gives a sweeping national look at the race and ethnicity of vaccinated people on a state-by-state basis. Yet nearly half of those vaccination records are missing race or ethnicity information.

Ikuko Tokuoka, a 41-year-old unemployed woman in Shiga, Japan has been arrested for fraud after allegedly sending a customer two bottles of water instead of a PlayStation 5.
As Singapore moves into Phase 2 (heightened alert), a greater number of restrictions were put into place to reduce social interactions in a bid to curb transmissions of Covid-19. One of the measures taken was the suspension of dining-in at eateries across the country, much to the dismay of food-loving Singaporeans. Thankfully, many restaurants were quick to adapt, rolling out options for deliveries and takeaways, allowing customers to continue enjoying delicious, socially distant, meals from the comfort and safety of their homes. Here’s a list of the top 7 restaurants bringing their luxurious menus to your homes, giving customers ...

The sub-compact SUV space continues to be the most crowded and one of the most fiercely contested automotive segments in the Indian market right now. With as many as nine different offerings across a wide range of price points, customers are literally spoilt for options and that makes the competition that much more fierce. However, if there's one vehicle that has remained undeterred in this segment, then that will be the Maruti Suzuki Vitara Brezza.
While there are many good reasons to buy the Maruti Vitara Brezza over its competition, the carmaker is offering you even greater incentive ...
SACRAMENTO — In spite of a pandemic that has killed about 62,000 Californians — more than enough to pack Dodger Stadium — Gov. Gavin Newsom has again declined to boost the budgets of the state’s underfunded and understaffed local public health departments.
Local public health officials, responsible for steering the state’s covid-19 response, had asked the Democratic governor for $200 million per year for the nuts and bolts of public health, starting in the 2021-22 budget year, which kicks off July 1.

Thanks to the bunch of leaked images that surfaced on the internet last week, we knew what the new Yamaha R7 will look like. It does have the silhouette of the beloved Yamaha R6, however, it isn?t exactly the R6?s successor. It?s more like a faired sibling of the Yamaha MT-07.

Is your supply chain strong and fit, or fragile and weak? A new report from Gartner helps you determine the answer and work toward a stronger, more resilient future.
Is your supply chain fit, fragile, or somewhere in the middle of the spectrum? This is a question that more organizations are asking themselves right now as they balance high levels of demand with constraints like supply chain shortages, port congestion, a dearth of ocean containers, and a short supply of qualified truck drivers.
Much like an amateur or professional athlete focuses on maintaining a certain level of fitness to ...

Fort Lauderdale private jet provider Monarch Air Group examines how technology is helping aviation as a whole go above and beyond, the same way as other industries have relied on technology to provide added value to the end clients as well as a competitive advantage from other competing sectors.
Technologies applied in the aviation industry
A vast amount of technologies drive and enhance digital transformation both in companies and organizations and in people’s daily lives. Blockchain, Cloud, IoT, AI and Cybersecurity. But what relationship do they have with the aviation sector?

One of the silliest exercises in finance is the habit of people to make return forecasts for the next 12 months or so (and before you complain, yes, I am guilty as of doing that myself). We all know (or at least should know) that such short-term forecasts are hopelessly unreliable. Yet, it is interesting to examine how different groups of investors form their return expectations. To that end, Wang Renxuan from Columbia University has done us all a big favour. He collected all kinds of different return forecasts over time from different sources and compared how they relate ...

Conventional wisdom holds that the prices of pharmaceuticals are higher in the US than in other countries. But is that really the case? And if so, by how much?
Which price?
The question we need to answer is “which price” do you mean? There is the manufacturer wholesale price (i.e., gross price) which is how much wholesalers pay for drugs from manufacturers. Then, there is the retail gross drug price which is how much retail pharmacies pay for drugs after buying them from wholesalers with some additional mark-up. Yet another component of price are rebates and discounts that drug ...
I’ve often wondered how Elon Musk is able to get away with some of the things that he does. How is having the ability to move markets with a single tweet legal? Especially if he moves his positions before tweeting? Isn’t that a form of insider trading even if he’s not a part of the company he’s tweeting about as is often the case when he’s tweeting about Dogecoin and other cryptocurrencies?!
Technically though, he hasn’t always gotten away with it. He has run afoul of the SEC and bene fined. But no such repercussions yet for his crypto ...
Living in a literal oven (Arizona) means I have to be constantly on the lookout for potential signs of skin cancer. Which is exactly what I did a few weeks ago when I went to the dermatologist, had a biopsy taken from my arm, and received a new permanent life long scar for my efforts for something that wound up being benign. Thankfully Google is working on a better method. One capable of scanning pictures that we upload to identify what skin conditions we have, if any.
Now for the changes. We are returning the Saturday Night Hootenanny back to roots of exploring different music. Of course, you may ask, “What about the trivia?” Well we are going to use the Midnight Special as our new home for the trivia. To make it a little harder we will be using less songs to see if I can stump you know-it-alls. So shall we give it a try?
A string of shootings on various Southern California freeways over the past month have California Highway Patrol baffled and, with no leads, the shootings seem destined to continue.
Actual golf can be super stressful, but video game golf? It’s often (with exceptions) very zen, which is why I’m interested in A Little Golf Journey, a game coming to the Switch and PC later this summer.
