Except that A-Rod won’t be making that chase, as he told ESPN’s Andrew Marchand on Wednesday that he plans to retire after his contract runs out following the 2017 season. For someone who has as much interest in baseball history as Rodriguez does, it’s hard to believe that he doesn’t know what this decision means.

Saving them raises thorny church-and-state issues. A few years back, the National Park Service denied a grant for repairs to Boston’s Old North Church because it is still an active parish. But for heaven’s sake–this is the church where Paul Revere had those lanterns raised to warn that the British were coming! Ultimately, the Park Service reversed the decision, but some local governments don’t want to touch religious buildings, either with funding or special designations....

Whether or not these leaked photos are actually official MCU content is debatable, but the drop of the No Way Home trailer so soon after their accidental release does make it seem like Marvel is trying to draw attention away from the disclosure of the photos. However, the new trailer seems to have done the complete opposite, as Marvel fans take to social media to share their keen observations and detailed theories about the trailer, simultaneously generating a ton of buzz about Garfield and Maguire’s return in the last twenty-four hours....

The city may even have become one of those secret good places, as Seattle may once have been but without all the overpriced coffee and pretentiousness about simple living that besmirch that city....

Such shows, in which owners get together to swap car stories and share tips on finding parts, usually involve hundreds of automobiles. The gatherings are held in sunshine and in rain, on fairgrounds or farmers’ fields or even in parking lots. Show organizers provide a placard for each vehicle that spells out the make, model, year and owner’s name. The signs invariably include the line do not touch! Many cars also bear signs that say such things as don’t even think about touching this car and touch me only with thine eyes....

VITAMIN PILLS Before there were pills, there was food. And as a general rule, the best way to get your daily vitamin requirement is in foods, which often are rich in several vitamins as well as fiber and other health-giving substances. Twenty years ago doctors believed that the typical U.S. diet provided adequate vitamins, and that very few of us needed to take vitamin pills. In the United States and other developed nations, full-blown vitamin-deficiency diseases have been rare for decades because most people eat foods that prevent them....

The Old Forest is just a small patch of a much wider, larger woodland that used to stretch across the whole of Eriador until it was desecrated and cut down by the men of the west, the Numenorians upon whom the two great statues of The Argonath are based. The trees in the land used to be peaceful and were at one time even guided by the Ents like the other talking trees of Fangorn Forest....

However, a shocking new theory has risen to light about exactly why Denethor is the way he is. Perhaps his delusions, paranoia and terror are not down to him being too proud to ask for help, but rather because he is suffering a terrible fate that caused many to go mad in human history: Lead poisoning. RELATED: What Was The First Science Fiction Movie? To delve into this theory further, it is important to understand the context of lead poisoning, how it affects the body and mind, and how it brought down an entire civilization on earth in real-life history....

C.K. apparently sent a message to subscribers of his email mailing list announcing the impending tour, and an update to his website includes the new tour dates. The comedian was publicly shamed after the emergence of allegations of non-consensual sexual misconduct, and his later admission of the behavior in November 2017. “I am on the road doing professional stand-up comedy. Which consists of sharing jokes, stories, observations, lies, non-lies, and being generally ridiculous for the benefit of a laughing audience,” says a note above the list of recently-added tour dates on C....

With Crimson Alliance (originally rumored to be the sequel to Crimson Skies) hitting Xbox Live later this summer, they decided that it was time to show off a little more of what they have been working on. Delivering a smattering of new screenshots, you can see the two of the characters — seemingly the Wizard and Mercenary — heading deep into the Cult of Soul Siren’s lair. Each area seems to be built upon each other, which means players will be working their way through mazes of baddies and mini-bosses galore....
