The Mayan civilization was much bigger than anyone realized — on par with ancient Greece or China, according to a major archaeological breakthrough. Researchers have digitally unearthed more than 60,000 man-made ruins — including palaces, cities and elevated highways — that have been hidden for centuries in the jungles of northern Guatemala,National Geographic reports. The Mayan civilization was previously believed to be populated by five million people but the breakthrough shows it may have been up to three times bigger, according to the archaeologists behind the report. “With this new data it’s no longer unreasonable to think that there were 10 to 15 million people there,” Francisco Estrada-Belli, a Tulane University archaeologist, told the magazine. Using “revolutionary” laser technology known as LiDAR (“Light Detection And Ranging”), researchers digitally removed a sprawling tree canopy from aerial images of 810 miles of jungle landscape. It revealed a pre-Columbian civilization — complete with interconnected homes and farms — that was far more complex than most Maya experts had previously believed, according to the report. “Many [ were] living in low-lying, swampy areas that many of us had thought uninhabitable,” Estrada-Belli said, crediting the new technology. “Lidar is revolutionizing archaeology the way the Hubble Space Telescope revolutionized astronomy.” To find the hidden ruins, scholars beamed laser pulses toward the jungle with planes and measured the wavelengths as they bounced back. They then created a three-dimensional image of what is really under the surface of the trees. Archaeologists had been tediously mapping and excavating the same landscape for years. But the laser technology revealed a 30-foot-long fortification wall that researchers had never before noticed, along with the newly discovered homes and streets. “Maybe, eventually, we would have gotten to this hilltop where this fortress is, but I was within about 150 feet of it in 2010 and didn’t see anything,” Maya expert Tom Garrisontold Live Science. The Maya civilization is known for its advanced writing system, calendar, and astronomical system.

Residents of Sleepy Hollow, New York, say a retired New York Fire Department boat that responded to 9/11 is ruining their view of the Hudson River. Residents of the Westchester County village say the John D. McKean is blocking their views from their expensive waterfront homes. FDNY officials say the fireboat was built in 1954 and was officially retired in 2010 — a year after it responded to the "Miracle on the Hudson" plane landing. Owners Edward Taylor, Miguel Valle and Michael Kaphan pooled together about $70,000 and purchased the boat to save it from the scrapyard. Taylor says the boat leases a dock alongside several boats working on the Tappan Zee Bridge. Resident Robert William says "I wouldn't call it an eyesore. But it's just not a good fit."

You really can’t take it with you. For a lottery jackpot winner, Donald Savastano had the worst luck. Weeks after winning $1 million in a scratch-off game, the self-employed carpenter died. Until he cashed in on his new-found riches, Savastano, 51, was unable to afford health insurance. When Sevastano finally made it to the doctor, he got the worst news imaginable. He had stage four cancer. "I was hoping that the money was maybe going to save his life," Danielle Scott, who works at the store where he bought the winning ticket, told WABC-TV. "He was self-employed. He didn't have insurance, he hadn't been feeling good for a while, I guess, and when he got the money he went into the doctor." Savastano died Friday, 23 days after he won the lottery. Funeral services were held Wednesday in Oneonta. Savastano, a Queens native who grew up in Long Island, was living upstate in Sidney when he played the New York Lottery's "Merry Millionaire" game and won $1 million. He received a $661,800 lump sum payment. "This is going change our lives, to tell you the truth," Savastano said when he picked up his winnings. "I'm probably going to go get a new truck and I don't know probably go on vacation," Savastano lived with his longtime girlfriend Julie Wheeler, and helped raise her sons. After his big win, Savastano began to see a bright future. “I didn’t really have a plan for retirement,” Savastano told the lottery officials in an interview at the time. “The money will help with that.” Savastano had told state lottery officials he was driving home from work Dec. 9 when he stopped at a gas station in Masonville and bought the game. “I buy scratch-off tickets pretty regularly but I don’t normally play the holiday tickets,” Savastano told Lottery officials. “I saw the Merry Millionaire ticket and figured, ‘Why not?’

A newly discovered dinosaur from Egypt is a huge deal for paleontologists — and not just because it was the size of a school bus. Mansourasaurus shahinae is massively significant because it illuminates the last days of the dinosaurs in Africa that have, until now, been a mystery. Scientists seeking to understand African dinosaurs have compared the discovery of this giant that roamed some 80 million years ago to the “Holy Grail.” “It was thrilling for my students to uncover bone after bone, as each new element we recovered helped to reveal who this giant dinosaur was,” said Dr. Hesham Sallam of Mansoura University, who led the research in the Sahara Desert. The newly found dinosaur’s name honors Mansoura University and Mona Shahin for her integral role in developing the research initiative that led to the discovery. The Mansourasaurus shahinae skeleton is the most complete dinosaur specimen ever discovered from that period and location, according to a paper published in the journal Nature Ecology and Evolution. Mansourasaurus belongs to a group of sauropods called Titanosauria, which were common throughout the Cretaceous period. Titanosaurs include the largest land animals known to science. Remains reveal that the dinosaur had a long neck and bony plates embedded in its skin. It was about 33 feet long, or the length of a school bus. It weighed about the same as an elephant, according to the research team at Ohio University. Scientists found that Mansourasaurus is more closely related to dinosaurs in Europe and Asia than those found in Southern Africa or South America. “Africa’s last dinosaurs weren’t completely isolated, contrary to what some have proposed in the past,” said contributing author Dr. Eric Gorscak, who began work on the project as a doctoral student at Ohio University. “There were still connections to Europe.” Study co-author and dinosaur paleontologist Dr. Matt Lamanna of Carnegie Museum of Natural History, acknowledged being stunned by the discovery. “When I first saw pics of the fossils,” he said, “my jaw hit the floor. This was the Holy Grail — a well-preserved dinosaur from the end of the Age of Dinosaurs in Africa—that we paleontologists had been searching for a long, long time.” Added Sallam, “What’s exciting is that our team is just getting started. Now that we have a group of well-trained vertebrate paleontologists here in Egypt, with easy access to important fossil sites, we expect the pace of discovery to accelerate in the years to come.” -

The hits keep coming for newly traded Blake Griffin. After the Clippers shipped the 6-foot-10 forward to the Pistons on Monday, Olympian Lolo Jones weighed in on the blockbuster trade by shedding light on their past. Responding to a post about Griffin on Instagram, Jones shut down a follower who suggested she was into him personally. “Nah, I went on a date with him,” Jones, 35, replied. “Worst date of my life and he’s a terrible kisser.” Griffin, 28, who was last linked to supermodel Kendall Jenner, went out with the Olympic hurdler “years ago,” sources told TMZ. The NBA All-Star addressed his new reality Tuesday morning on social media. “Needed a night to digest and reflect on what happened ….,” Griffin began. “From being a #1 pick, to Lob City, to six straight Playoff appearances, I am so proud to have been part of the success of the Clippers organization. LA has been my home since I started in the league and I will forever be grateful to the city for embracing me and supporting me.”

Bill Gates is planning to pump $40 million into a scheme to create a “super cow” that can produce more milk. The Microsoft billionaire wants to take genes from British cattle and infuse them with DNA from African breeds to create a cow that can thrive anywhere. British Holstein-Friesians produce 40 pints of milk a day on average while African cows can only make three and a half — but they can survive the heat and eat much less food. Gates said: “Livestock is magical. You can sell the output and that’s money for school fees. You can keep the output and that’s diet diversification.” “For more than a billion people living in the poorest countries, agriculture and livestock are a lifeline out of poverty. The science and research being led by the great minds here in Edinburgh are making huge strides in improving the health and productivity of livestock.” Scientists at Edinburgh University will also use software to develop vaccines to save cows hit with disease in tropical regions in research partly funded by the Department for International Development. Bill, worth an estimated $90 billion, added: “The impact per dollar is super-high in this area.” “You can have a cow that is four times as productive with the same survivability. We could justify this on economic or health impacts — but we get both.” The billionaire set up the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation to help rid the developing world of poverty.

Two men half-naked and high on meth after having sex in a box truck sped away from a jealous lover in Queens Saturday morning — only to rear-end a car in their haste to escape, law enforcement sources said. Stephen Walker, 38, of Pennsylvania, told police he had spent the night canoodling with his lover inside the box truck in a parking lot near Kennedy Airport. doing some rear-ending of another type. Everything was going splendidly until a jilted boyfriend of one of the men came to confront them. Walker told police he and his new paramour sped away to escape the jilted lover. But in his haste to escape he slammed into the back of a silver four-door sedan on Old Rockaway Blvd. and North Boundary Lane in Springfield Gardens about 8:30 a.m., officials said. After rear-ending the car, the truck careened off the road and slammed through a fence, crushing the truck’s cabin, sources said. Both men were naked from the waist down when they crashed into the car. Walker scrambled out of the crumpled cabin and ran off toward the Ark at JFK Airport — an animal shelter and screening facility for beasts coming into the airport from abroad. Walker hid in an empty horse trailer as first responders arrived at the crash scene, sources said. But after a few minutes, he sheepishly returned to the truck and told Port Authority police his new lover was trapped inside the crumpled cabin. “This guy walks over and he’s naked from the waist down,” a source said. “He said there’s someone else in the truck and when we find that guy he’s also naked from the waist down!” Responding officers used the “jaws of life” cutting tool to crack open the door and free the other man. Medics covered the two up in sheets and took Walker, his lover and the woman whose car they hit to Jamaica Hospital, where they were all treated and released. The woman suffered neck and back injuries, sources said. Walker and the other man were evaluated but unharmed. Cops charged Walker with reckless driving, leaving the scene of an accident, drug possession, driving under the influence of drugs and obstructing government administration. His arraignment was pending in Queens Criminal Court Saturday night. http://assets.nydailynews.com/polopoly_fs/1.3783169.1517096008!/img/httpImage/image.jpg_gen/derivatives/article_750/crash28n-9-web.jpg Stephen Walker

I've always wondered what it was like to have a sibling who's well-known for being handsome/beautiful or sexy when you're, well, not. Chad Lowe and Randy Quaid come to mind. I suppose Shirley MacLaine could chime in on the subject as well. Tyne Daly too, depending on how you feel about Tim. I suppose I should ask my sister one day if this has been a burden for her to bear. :cool:

A farmyard cow in Poland has chosen freedom this winter, roaming with a herd of bison for three months after escaping its pen. The reddish brown cow has been spotted following bison across corn and rapeseed fields bordering the Bialowieza Forest in eastern Poland as they forage for abandoned corn cobs and other food. Rafal Kowalczyk, a bison expert who has managed to photograph the unusual sight, said the cow seems to be in good condition. That indicates that she is managing to find food, even though she is sometimes spotted on the margins of the herd. Thick fur common to her Limousin breed and the mild winter in eastern Poland so far this year have also helped her, he told The Associated Press on Thursday. Kowalczyk, director of the Mammal Research Institute at the Polish Academy of Sciences, described the situation as exceptional, saying it's the first time he has witnessed a cow living among bison. But it's also dangerous to both sides. If the cow mates with male bison and gets pregnant, she could die during delivery because her hybrid calf would be bigger than a normal cow calf. Any offspring could also contaminate the gene pool of the tiny and endangered bison population in Poland, which became extinct in the wild after World War I and has been restored based on some captive survivors. For now, the story of a rebel cow who defied the fate of the slaughterhouse to roam free with the bison is a hit on Kowalczyk's Facebook page. One of his followers reposted the photo with the words: "Next time when I think that something stops me from fulfilling my dreams, I will remember the cow who became a bison." But scientists will want to remove the cow from the herd by summer to prevent the risk of mating, though Kowalczyk said that won't be an easy operation. "One question is whether when winter ends the cow will follow the bison into the forest, which is not the habitat that this cow knows," Kowalczyk said. "The more time she spends in the herd, the riskier it will be." http://assets.nydailynews.com/polopoly_fs/1.3778747.1516906829!/img/httpImage/image.jpg_gen/derivatives/article_750/ap-image.jpg
