Linked media - Associated media Dr Delman, whose research helped revive the hunt, said the discovery had the potential to enrich public knowledge about a former royal power base, commissioned by a Tudor woman, “making it a globally significant site national and international”. In early February, volunteers took out their shovels for a two-day dig, one of many planned this year, to better understand what the palace looked like. Down an alley on a small patch of grass, a dozen residents — including young professionals, parents, a former prison guard and several retirees — dug into four small fenced trenches…

While the men have not yet been found innocent or guilty – the trial won’t begin until February – news of the arrests has highlighted concerns among many activists about China’s ability to surveil and harass its citizens abroad, particularly those who have been critical of the government. A spokesperson for China’s Foreign Ministry on Friday denounced what it called “false accusations” and “cowardly actions” by British authorities in accepting the case. Last week,…

Linked media - Related media “Like having to choose between air and water,” he said. “I have to have both.” Although Flannery grew up primarily in Anaheim, California, his family came from the hills of Kentucky. His uncle, Hal Smith, was a catcher who hit a three-run homer for Pittsburgh in the eighth inning of Game 7 of the 1960 World Series. If the Pirates’ bullpen had been leading 9-7, Smith would have been a hero . Instead, the Yankees tied the game and Pittsburgh’s Bill Mazeroski won the game and earned immortality. Smith, who played for 10 seasons, regularly…
