An Elizabeth Warren Endorsement Of Bernie Sanders No Longer Matters Poll Shows

The Morning Consult poll found virtually no difference in who 940 Democratic primary voters would choose between Sanders and former Vice President Joe Biden if either candidate were to be endorsed by Warren. Warren has yet to endorse either of the candidates that are still in the race. If Warren were to endorse Sanders, 37 percent of voters would back him compared to 53 percent that would back Biden. If Warren were to endorse Biden, Sanders would receive 34 percent of Democratic primary voter support, while Biden would get 56 percent....

An Evangelical Identity Crisis

Meanwhile, in Leawood, Kans., a suburb near the Missouri border, a 42-year-old evangelical pastor named Adam Hamilton was preaching an entirely different message. He was helping his 14,000 members parse the parables in Matthew 13–the wheat and the weeds, the good fish and bad. “Our task is not to go around judging people–Jesus didn’t do that,” he tells NEWSWEEK. He encourages his congregation to vote, he says, but when they do they’re neither predictably Republican nor Democratic....

An Evil Virus Is Upon Us

Actually, there is. Wayne Angell, the taciturn former Federal Reserve governor who now tells the future at Bear, Stearns, puts a name on it: “Speculation.” Not that speculation is a new phenomenon. But Feb. 4, 1994, the day the Fed abruptly ended five years of easy money, made it dangerous. Billions of dollars of wealth disappeared almost overnight; if you’d been a long-term-Treasury-bond millionaire on Feb. 3, you’d have had only $870,000 three months later as higher rates decimated bond prices....

An Exit On The Road To War

We were sitting around a table in the cabinet room late at night, drafting and re-drafting President Truman’s statement to the press about relieving General MacArthur of command in Korea. One of the president’s national-security aides, Ted Tannenwald, suggested putting into Truman’s statement the fact that he was doing this on the unanimous recommendations of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. The president said, “No, I’m not going to hide behind anybody....

An Opening To The East

The first signal came in meetings Soviet Foreign Minister Eduard Shevardnadze held in Copenhagen last week with West German Foreign Minister Hans-Dietrich Genscher and U.S. Secretary of State James Baker. At the summit, Gorbachev had said almost oflhandedly that perhaps NATO and the Warsaw Pact could work together somehow. Baker’s political antennae went up; he spied an opening. The day the summit ended, he floated Gorbachev’s idea on NBC-TV’s “Meet the Press....

Anaheim Living Wage Ordinance Doesn T Apply To Disneyland Workers Judge Rules

Orange County Superior Court Judge William Claster dismissed a class-action lawsuit from Disneyland employees that would’ve implored the theme park to raise its wages to comply with Anaheim Measure L. Measure L was first passed by the citizens of Anaheim in 2018. The official ballot measure required “hospitality industry businesses that receive city subsidies to incrementally increase pay for minimum wage employees to $18 an hour by 2022.” Disneyland’s current minimum wage is reportedly $15 per hour....

Anatomy Of A Hype

All this for a book that shows a great deal of talent and ambition but remains every inch a first novel. A murder without the mystery, “The Secret History” is about a coterie of college students fanatically devoted to the study of ancient Greek. Halfway through the novel the group murders one of its own, and from then on the book is concerned with the ramifications of their deed, especially the psychological consequences....

Ancelotti Boateng Is Working Hard

Speaking after Wednesday’s 3-2 Champions League defeat at Rostov in which Boateng produced a shaky display, Rummenigge said Germany’s footballer of the year needed to “come back to earth” and implied his off-field commercial activities were becoming a hindrance. Ancelotti, whose own position has been questioned following a run of three games without a win, accepts Boateng could do better but insisted the former Manchester City defender was just one player not currently performing to his capability....

Ancient American Lion Tooth Discovered On Dried Up Mississippi River Bank

Wiley Prewitt, of Oxford, Mississippi, made the discovery while exploring a recently exposed sandbar near Rosedale, approximately 140 miles northwest of Jackson. The Mississippi River is the second-longest river in the U.S., stretching 2,350 miles between Minnesota and the Gulf of Mexico. Drought and heat waves over the summer months have caused it, like many others, to see a record decline in water levels. Land that had been hidden beneath the currents for centuries has now been exposed for the first time....

Ancient Civilization Structures With Cosmic Significance Discovered Beneath Mexico

The hundreds of sites were discovered using publicly available LIDAR data collected by the Mexican government. LIDAR, which stands for Light Detection and Ranging, is a mapping technique that uses a laser to peer at the environment and create a 3D map of it. Since LIDAR is capable of piercing through trees and vegetation, it can reveal hidden archaeological features. Using the data, researchers from the University of Arizona and other institutions found a total of 478 historic complexes shaped like squares and rectangles in the Mexican states of Tabasco and Veracruz....

Ancient Fault System Feeding Methane To Enormous Craters On Arctic Ocean Seafloor Discovered

Hundreds of craters, with some over 3,000 feet wide, were uncovered by scientists in 2017 when they were mapping the floor of the Barents Sea. These craters were formed by huge methane explosions thousands of years earlier, at the end of the last ice age. The region was once covered in an ice sheet, weighing down the land below. As the planet warmed and the ice retreated, methane reservoirs deep beneath the ocean surface became unstable and moved upwards, creating enormous mounds on the seafloor....

Ancient Footprints Could Be Key To Bringing Auroch Back From Extinction

One of the largest collections of prehistoric footprints on Earth lies along a sandy stretch of coastline in north-west England: Formby beach. Researchers at the University of Manchester in the U.K. have been studying these footprints for more than six years. “The muddy footprints were preserved immediately after they were formed by being baked hard in warm weather, filled with sand and then by being capped under further mud,” Alison Burns, who led the study, told Newsweek....

And To Your Immediate Left . . . Urban Decay

Ferrer might be missing a marketing opportunity. Some entrepreneurs already know that many visitors are drawn to the borough because of the decay. Bronx native Henry Williams runs Bronx Day Tours, and while he takes European visitors to Edgar Allan Poe’s cottage, he also swings by Hunts Point, a South Bronx neighborhood where tourists can snap pictures of stripped cars and drug deals from the safety of their bus. “If that’s what it takes to get them to the Bronx, so be it,” he says....

The governor appeared at a news conference on Thursday during which he discussed the state’s latest COVID-19 data and plans to reopen stadiums and performing arts venues to spectators, but he did not take call-in questions from reporters at the event’s conclusion. A few hours after Cuomo’s Thursday news conference, Quinnipiac University shared on social media the results of its latest poll of New York voters. The poll, which was conducted among 905 individuals between March 16 and 17 with a 3....
