Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg has previously said the company would do more to address the issue of false information on the platform but some conspiracy videos have remained on the site for years. A newly published report from the Simon Wiesenthal Center highlighted the problem of Anti-Semitic 9/11 videos and pointed out that in some cases the videos have been viewed tens of thousands of times. That report, “September 11 Conspiracies: 20 Years Later,” draws attention to one Facebook video posted by the “Anti Illuminati Alliance” which falsely claims that no planes were used in the attacks....

Monday, January 27, is 75 years after the liberation of the Auschwitz-Birkenau death camp, an event marked by International Holocaust Remembrance Day. Friedrich Kellner was an evangelical Lutheran who served in the army of Kaiser Wilhelm II in WWI as an infantry sergeant. A patriotic German, his conscience was pricked and his stomach turned when he first read Adolf Hitler’s autobiography Mein Kampf—“My Struggle,” in English—when it was published in 1925....

Brown, previously a superstar wide receiver with the Pittsburgh Steelers for several years and currently a free agent, shared the meme to his Twitter account while signing it “Sincerely AB” on Thursday, initially sparking a wave of confusion and concern among NFL fans. While the meme purports to feature a bizarre and absurdly vain quote from the 34-year-old receiver “on his biggest regret,” it was created by the sports satire site The Sports Memery before being shared by Brown....

On Sunday, Brown caught 10 catches for 139 yards and scored two touchdowns, one of which came on a 56-yard catch and run to put the Steelers up 30-9 on the Browns.

“It’s not fake. It’s fixed.” Why did this description of WWE-style wrestling make me think immediately of NFL football? Because of Antonio Brown, of course. Behaving like an immature fool appears to come naturally to Brown, but that doesn’t mean his performance in trying to coerce the Steelers to trade him is not scripted. It is contrived in the pro wrestling manner, in which the action is designed but the intricacies of movement both demand and allow a fair amount of improvisation....

As many as 71 participants across 13 categories teed off at the Jack Nicklaus designed Classic Golf & Country Club here, which has staged top-ticket professional events like the Indian Open and SAIL Open in the past. The tour lays out age-specific yardages and that found appreciation in Jai Bahl’s words, winner of the 13-14 years category. “I am not a long hitter but the course layout helped me score well,” he said....

Bob McGinn of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel has been interviewing scouts, quoting them anonymously as they discuss this year’s NFL Draft prospects, and it’s resulted in crazy responses. One said Cardale Jones was “not the brightest cookie in the world,” which is an odd thing to say considering all cookies maintain the same level of luminosity.

Back in 2010, Traveller’s Tales took a trip to the world of Harry Potter through two separate games. LEGO Harry Potter Years 1-4 kickstarted this adventure by adapting the first four Harry Potter films with the tried and true LEGO style. A year later, Traveller’s Tales continued the Harry Potter adventures by adapting the final four films with LEGO Harry Potter Years 5-7. Since then, loads of new Wizarding World content has expanded upon the story that has yet to receive any sort of LEGO adaptation....

What Happens When You Don’t Ovulate When you do not ovulate, this hormonal cascade is not initiated. Not only are you not able to conceive during an anovulatory cycle, but you also will not have your regular period. Anovulation does not always result in abnormal bleeding, at least not immediately. It is common for most women to experience an occasional anovulatory cycle. Physical or psychological stressors such as many sleepless nights studying for an exam, training for a marathon, extended travel, illness, or death of a loved one can trigger stress hormones that can suppress your ovulation....

The Antarctica Peninsula is currently experiencing dramatic ice loss, but identifying when this process began and what the main drivers were further back in time is made difficult by the fact that scientists only have data from very recently. But now, for a study published in the journal Scientific Reports, a team of scientists led by William Dickens from the British Antarctic Survey, reconstructed a 6,250-year record of glacier meltwater in the Antarctic Peninsula to shed light on past drivers of ice loss and their present-day implications....

According to producer Ben Irving, every zone in Anthem’s open world has a chance to spawn a World Event any time a player enters it. There is no timer associated with a World Event or any form of predictability. Once players enter a zone either a World Event triggers or it does not. What isn’t clear is whether a player could stay in the same zone and have a World Event appear....

Hopkins has tons of acclaimed films under his belt and now he has officially joined the Rebel Moon production, set to take part as the voice of a robot. This character, named Jimmy, is described as “an impossibly sentient JC1435 mechanized battle robot and one-time defender of the slain King.” So if there was any doubt as to just how “sci-fi” the now two-part Rebel Moon was going to be, the presence of a sentient robot probably guides those expectations quite well....

Even there, he couldn’t escape talk of the heavyweight he isn’t fighting. Someone in the crowd jumped at the opportunity and shouted, “AJ, we want Wilder!” “Let them train to be a fighter and fight (Deontay) Wilder,” Joshua told AP. “It’s easy talking about it. It’s another thing doing.” But with his hands on his hips, Joshua looked in the direction of the outburst and stoically mouthed, “Same.” Meanwhile, Povetkin was standing off to the side....

Most outlets are no strangers to a bad review but Luna Rotisserie in Durham, North Carolina, has decided to celebrate one instead. The restaurant revealed that a group of customers was unhappy about the mask mandate during the first lockdown back in April. Despite being offered a table on the patio, the group became “angry and argumentative” before eventually leaving. They voiced their disdain at the establishment via a Google Review, leaving one star and a scathing write-up....

Other businesses defaced by the graffiti were a wig shop and an accounting firm, where a spray-painted swastika was discovered. The phrases “Party with the devil” and the number “666” were also found. University Heights Mayor Dylan Brennan decried the activities in a statement. “Today our citizens discovered a pitiful act done under cover of darkness,” Brennan wrote. “The graffiti on several buildings in our community was not only childish, nasty, and small, it was anti-Semitic....

The good news is that, in most cases, diarrhea will clear up when the course of antibiotics is over and a regular diet is resumed. If it doesn’t, your healthcare provider may be able to prescribe treatment to get the bacteria in the digestive tract back in harmony.​ Antibiotics and Gut Flora Normally, the large intestine maintains a delicate balance with the billions of bacteria that live inside it. Most of these are the “good bacteria” that aid in digestion and keep “bad bacteria” in check....

Blood from 3,300 volunteers living in Santa Clara was extracted from a finger prick and analyzed at the start of April. The Stanford University study, which has not been peer reviewed yet and was posted on medRxiv, found that between 2.5 percent of 4.5 percent of people tested positive for antibodies. Extrapolated over the county’s population of two million, the data predicts that between 48,000 and 82,000 people could have been infected with the virus at that time....

Brown has been without a team since he was cut by the New England Patriots after just 11 days in September amid allegations of sexual assault and rape, which he strenuously denies. The seven-time Pro Bowl wide receiver played just one game for the Patriots, who he joined from the Oakland Raiders after leaving the Pittsburgh Steelers in March last year.
