A team led by Anthony Fiorillo from the Perot Museum of Nature and Science in Texas documented the footprints in the remote Aniakchak National Monument nature preserve, around 420 miles southwest of Anchorage, the state’s largest city. According to a study published in the open-access journal PLOS ONE, the tracks were found preserved in the so-called Chignik Formation—a series of coastal sediment deposits approximately 1,650 to 2,000 feet thick which dates back to the Late Cretaceous Period (100....

If anything, though, the new Broadway production of “Judgment at Nuremberg” demonstrates that the more experiences we have, the less adept we become. Revised for the stage by Abby Mann, the Oscar-winning author of the original screenplay, this fictionalized account of the 1948 trial of four German judges accused of condemning innocent people to death or sterilization is nearly as powerful as its screen predecessor. It still packs immense star power: Maximilian Schell, who played the German defense lawyer in the movie, is now Ernst Janning, the only conscience-stricken defendant; young Michael Hayden offers a brilliant performance in Schell’s old role; and George Grizzard, Robert Foxworth and Swiss actress Marthe Keller confidently emerge from the shadows of Spencer Tracy, Richard Widmark and Marlene Dietrich....

Under the latest guidance issued by the California Department of Public Health on Saturday, health care workers who test positive for COVID-19 or were exposed to a COVID-19-positive contact, but are asymptomatic, are allowed to return to work without isolating or testing negative for the virus. The measures come as a growing number of staff are having to isolate amid a rise in cases of COVID-19 in the state, driven by the highly transmissible Omicron variant of the novel coronavirus....

The PCRM, which admittedly favors vegetarianism, based its grades largely on the availability of fruits, vegetables and meatless entrees–with 20 out of 100 points for simply meeting federal guidelines for basic nutrition. “If we’re going to combat childhood obesity, kids need to learn to eat right,” says Brownell. But too many seem to be missing the chance.

For my thesis project, I created a “nutrition education intervention” for 5th grade students. It was a six-session survey course on the MyPlate guidelines, salt and sugar levels in processed foods, how to read a nutrition label, and more. At the end of each session, my students sampled a “healthy” snack like hummus, trail mix, and yogurt parfaits. But I made a huge mistake by excluding the most basic education—how to actually incorporate nutritional knowledge in day-to-day cooking....

This year, there have been two teams that have set themselves apart both on and off the ice. Because the NWHL playoffs are decided by one-game series, anything can happen. But it would be shocking to see a Final that didn’t feature the league’s two best teams: the Metropolitan Riveters and the Buffalo Beauts. The Riveters made headlines in October when news broke of their historic partnership with the NHL’s New Jersey Devils....

The league announced that Providence Park in Portland would host the match on Saturday, Nov. 20, with the kickoff set for noon ET to accommodate a national TV slot on CBS. With the game taking place on the west coast, however, that kickoff time translates into an early-morning start for the biggest game of the season, which did not sit well with several players. NWSL players voice their displeasure Orlando Pride and U....

Speaking on MSNBC, James reminded host Ali Velshi that New York has been conducting an investigation into the Trump Organization “related to financial impropriety.” “We will continue that investigation, and at this point in time there’s nothing more that I can say other than the fact that they have used every legal attempt to block and to deny us information and to witnesses,” the attorney general said. “We filed requests to compel and we were successful....

A jointly-funded $60 million contract for development of the “Quarterhorse” airplane was awarded to aerospace company the Hermeus Corporation last week, the company announced on Thursday. The Quarterhorse is expected to be capable of making transatlantic flights in about 90 minutes, about one fifth of the time it takes in a current commercial airliner. The Air Force hopes that its investment will eventually result in a supercharged version of Air Force One....

While some companies use artificial intelligence-based tools to review resumes or analyze video of job interviews, applicants usually remain unaware their information is being put through the process. The bill would also force the companies who create the AI tools to provide more information about how their products work, and give candidates the chance to opt out of having their information reviewed by a program, potentially requiring a real person to go over their application....

Police Commissioner Dermot Shea said the majority of unvaccinated workers in his department have applied for religious or medical exemptions to the vaccine requirement. So far, only 34 police officers and 40 civilian police employees have been placed on unpaid leave, he said. As of Sunday, about 1 in 6 police personnel were still unvaccinated. According to Mayor Bill de Blasio, about 9,000 of the city’s municipal workers were put on unpaid leave for refusing to comply with the COVID-19 requirement that took effect Monday....

“I feel vindicated,” O.J. Simpson told Newsweek in an exclusive interview on Monday night. “It is now loud and clear that these guys are capable of planting evidence and framing people. This is not something new. It’s been going on for a long time. If a cop hadn’t gotten his hand caught in the cookie jar, they’d still be doing it.” The latest scandal came to light last fall, when Rafael Perez, an officer in the elite anti-gang unit known as “CRASH” (for Community Resources Against Street Hoodlums) began to cooperate with authorities in exchange for a lighter sentence on a charge of stealing cocaine from a police property room....

The 2003 and 2004 Caf Most Promising Talent of the Year has enjoyed a goal-laden career across top leagues in the world including the English Premier League, Italian Serie A, Major League Soccer. Notable for his effort that helped Birmingham City lift the English League Cup in 2011, Martins wrote his name into Shanghai Shenhua’s folklore after his goal sealed their fourth Chinese FA Cup title with a 3-3 aggregate win over Shanghai SIPG FC last season....

And the two presidents couldn’t be farther apart on the political spectrum. The common denominator Tuesday was Tiger Woods, who had multiple injuries in his legs from the morning crash. Former presidents Barack Obama and Donald Trump both sent messages to the world. Obama called Tiger the “GOAT” of golf, and Trump said he expects to see Woods strolling the links again. Here’s what Obama tweeted Tuesday evening. “Sending my prayers to @TigerWoods and his family tonight—here’s to a speedy recovery for the GOAT of golf....

Then came the anecdotes of lines forming around the blocks outside caucus precincts, of too few ballots for the wave of new voters who showed up. Within minutes of the doors closing on the Democratic caucus rooms, the Obama campaign said turnout would be more than 200,000–two-thirds higher than it was in 2004. For Obama’s supporters, the sight of overflowing precincts was almost too much to bear. “I was brought to tears,” said Monica Fischer, the wife of the former Iowa Democratic party chair, who was astonished by the turnout at her precinct at Drake University in Des Moines....

The former president told Pod Save America that Trump had tried to “decimate our entire foreign policy infrastructure” while not being “all that active” on the world stage. Obama also claimed that Democratic nominee Joe Biden had “learned a lesson” from his vote in favor of the Iraq War and repeatedly came down in favor of military restraint while serving as vice president. Speaking on the podcast earlier this week, Obama said: “And the thing that over the last four years, it’s not as if Trump has been all that active internationally....

The injuries forced him to miss the preseason and first four games of the regular season. According to Beckham, the hamstring tears never fully healed.
