The artifacts, some of which are more than 1,000 years old, have a market value of some $35 million, but the monetary value pales in comparison to their cultural and historical value to the Cambodian people. These 30 artifacts were surrendered by the Denver Art Museum and one private collector, James H. Clark, the founder of Netscape. We know there are many more in museums and private collections in the United States and elsewhere....

The 26-year-old said that the trio supported each other during this ’traumatic’ period, “I think all of us, including Dave, have been really challenged through this period of time,” “I know that all three of us have really stuck by each other and looked after each other well. You can’t understand the trauma I felt, it was probably very different trauma to how he (Warner) felt, and I can’t possibly understand that....

The film follows precocious 15-year-old William Miller, an aspiring music journalist and rock ’n’ roll super fan. Will begins a personal and professional journey of self-discovery when Rolling Stone magazine hires him to go on the road to cover one of his favorite up-and-coming bands, Stillwater. While on the road, Will is enchanted by “band-aid” Penny Lane, a young, dedicated rock super fan entangled in an affair with the older Stillwater lead guitarist, Russell Hammond....

Should Thompson get into the race, he’ll be the third GOP candidate with a history of cancer, in a campaign where age and health are increasingly prominent issues. John McCain underwent surgery for skin cancer in 2000; Rudy Giuliani is a prostate-cancer survivor. According to their campaigns, both men undergo regular medical checkups to make sure their cancer has not returned. McCain, who turns 71 this year, plans to combat criticism that he’s too old for the job by letting reporters see his medical records in coming weeks, while an aide says Giuliani plans to do the same thing by the end of the year....

“I mean, we’re knocking on the door every year playing really good teams and great opponents,” Kelly responded. “There’s elite football teams. I don’t know why this narrative continues to pop up when we’re always in the games.” Kelly then answered the question about that narrative himself. “We haven’t won a national championship, that’s correct. I’m not changing the record,” he said. “But we are there every single year and we’re grinding it out just like everybody else....

In order to implement the mandatory reductions, California needs a waiver from the Environmental Protection Agency, essentially giving the state the okay to do something Washington refuses to. Now, according to documents released today by California Rep. Henry Waxman, the Bush administration has been working furiously behind the scenes to make sure that doesn’t happen. The back story, in brief: California passed the first state law requiring auto makers to start making cars that emit less carbon dioxide (presumably through greater fuel efficiency, or by making cars that run on fuels other than gasoline) in 2002, and set standards for those reductions in 2004....

More research is needed to prove that herbs are effective in treating menstrual pain. But experts in herbal medicine have recommended ginger, cinnamon, fennel, raspberry leaf tea, and Dong Quai roots. Saru Bala, ND, a licensed naturopathic doctor based in Phoenix, told Verywell that herbs can be an effective tool for managing period pain. “I would definitely say try it first before you knock it. But at the same time, herbs are not a magic pill,” Bala said....

Thank you.

While iOS 14 and newer iPhones can set some default apps (like mail and web browser), they cannot change the default map app. You can, however, download and use Chrome and Gmail to be able to use Google Maps by default instead of Apple Maps. You can only change the default apps if you’re using iOS 14 or newer. If you have an older phone, you won’t be able to do this....

The pardons were expected to be controversial and some have suggested that President-elect Biden could overturn them if they’re viewed as “corrupt” or an abuse of presidential power. One of the most high profile pardon recipients was former White House chief strategist Steve Bannon, whom many regard as the architect of Trump’s political career. Bannon was facing fraud charges in connection with an online fundraiser to build the southern border wall....

Lebron James put on an absolute clinic, dominating in every single facet of the game. Saying he had 45 points (on 19-26 shooting), 15 rebounds, and 5 assists would suggest he had a monster game; watching it suggests more. Saying James was a man possessed doesn’t do it justice. He played like the exorcist on steroids; he was unstoppable. I wonder, could Lebron average 40 points a game? Forget about what that entails every single night....

You may be surprised that the CDC does not recommend routine use of any type of respirator or medical face mask by the general public outside of the healthcare setting to prevent the spread of any viruses—even those which may be airborne. Instead, the CDC recommends Americans wear cloth or disposable face coverings in public settings where social distancing is difficult. Masks should be tightly woven but breathable, fit snugly around your face, and include more than one layer....

Activision has been working to curtail some of the toxicity, including banning thousands of players and introducing new automated systems. The Call of Duty staff released a progress report on Wednesday detailing recent activity. RELATED: Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War Announces Next Double XP Weekend Activation’s most dramatic action was banning more than 350,000 player accounts over the last year. The bans affected all current Call of Duty games, including Call of Duty: Warzone, Black Ops Cold War, Modern Warfare, and Call of Duty Mobile....

In a blog post on the official Activision website, the mode seems unsurprisingly similar to PUBG (which some may argue ultimately defined the genre) though Activision’s editorial manager David Hodgson prefers to compare it to the Blackout mode from Black Ops 4. The rules and objectives are fundamentally the same as other battle royale titles - 100 players drop into a massive map, (which was shared online earlier this week) filled with recognizable locations from the Call of Duty series, and take part in a free-for-all to become the last player standing....

Call of Duty Endowment has been trying to raise money for veterans ever since 2009. This non-profit specializes in helping former military members transition more easily into their civilian lives. Activision’s main focus is trying to help veterans get a job and emphasize the importance of having former military members in the workforce. Now, Call of Duty: Warzone will serve as a platform for Military Appreciation Month. RELATED: Reports of Toys For Bob Layoffs Incorrect, Says Activision [UPDATED]...

The RC-XD is a popular tool recently added to Call of Duty: Warzone, and it can travel outside of the boundary lines. Like many killstreaks in Call of Duty, the RC-XD plays by a different set of rules, and this gives it a unique perspective on the world. While players can still not leave the boundaries, one fan has used his RC-XD to explore what lies beyond the known training ground....

A second game in the rebooted Call of Duty: Modern Warfare universe is hardly a surprise, with the next Modern Warfare likely releasing in 2022. An obvious step for Infinity Ward to take given the last game’s success, and the cliffhanger ending from its campaign, many are optimistic about the sequel. Fortunately, it seems like they have another reason to be hyped for 2022’s Call of Duty release. According to a well-known insider, Infinity Ward is “feeling very good” about its next game....

Call of Duty Mobile has been adding all sorts of amazing content, even bringing back classic zombie modes that debuted back in World at War. But the zombie mode had something special added on: a raid mode. RELATED: Call of Duty Mobile: How to Report Hackers Zombie Raid Mode While many fans of the series are familiar with zombie modes from previous games, this is the first time players have seen a raid mode....

TiMi Studios interacting with fans has been seen since Call of Duty Mobile launched, with several Reddit comments being directly replied to over the past year. Whether it was players asking about Diamond camo or if a certain scorestreak would be added, TiMi Studios has consistently issued a response. As such, it is hardly a surprise that recent complaints about leveling and a lack of prestige received a response as well....
