Getting your Trinity Audio player ready… Over 3,000 years ago, in Tollense, a river valley that now lies in northern Germany, two large armies clashed in what is now recognized as Europe’s “oldest-known battle”. The clues have been pieced together through the study of dozens of arrowheads, which are helping frame a narrative around the warriors who participated in this battle 3,250 years ago.

They were down 27-20 in heading into the fourth quarter, threw an interception on a fourth and long attempt, dealt with multiple missed or blocked Younghoe…

He left that position in September before announcing his bid for Congress.…
After taking the spotlight for much of the last year, Tesla’s “love it or hate it” Cybertruck is dropping in price. That is, if you’re willing to forgo some of the included accessories that accompanied the Founders Series models, which were the only versions available up to this point. For those that didn’t get in on the Founders Edition, a waiting list was formed, and after the expected delay that comes with most Tesla purchasing experiences, those in line now have their chance to order a standard model. According to social media chatter, the email confirmations inviting those that reserved…
