Daily Readings from the USCCBJesus said: “I am the good shepherd. A good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep. A hired man, who is not a shepherd and whose sheep are not his own, sees a wolf coming and leaves the sheep and runs away, and the wolf catches and scatters them. This is because he works for pay and has no concern for the sheep.” John 10:11–13What is it that makes a shepherd “good?” A shepherd’s duties require great sacrifice and time. Like a mother who is always attentive to her newborn, a shepherd devotes his time...

The excavation of the Villa della Pisanella in Boscoreale has yielded one of the most extraordinary archaeological finds of the Roman era: the world's only known intact Roman boiler, complete with all its pipes, valves, and accessories. This unique artifact provides a fascinating insight into the technological sophistication of the ancient Romans, highlighting their advanced engineering skills and meticulous craftsmanship...The Villa della Pisanella first came to light in November 1868, when Modestino Pulzella, while laying the foundations for a new wall, discovered remnants of ancient structures. Further exploration revealed mosaics, but the work was soon halted by a neighboring landowner,...

“There is a silence in the night sky that has bothered me for as long as I can remember.” That line, attributed to Richard Feynman, lands because it gets at a simple, stubborn feeling. The sky looks full. Stars crowd the darkness. It seems reasonable to think someone else should be out there, and close enough to find. Yet the deeper physicists look into the laws that govern the universe, the more that silence starts to seem less like a cosmic riddle and more like a built-in feature of reality. Human intuition is not much help. It developed for ordinary...

"Blessed are those who have been persecuted for the sake of righteousness" (Matt. 5:10). If you don’t experience persecution, people probably don’t know you’re a Christian. I heard of a man who was fearful because he was starting a new job with a group of unbelievers whom he thought might give him a bad time if they found out he was a Christian. After his first day at work his wife asked him how he got along with them. "We got along just fine," he said. "They never found out I'm a Christian." Silence is one way to avoid persecution....

In 2016, a routine excavation in a supermarket car park near Andover uncovered a grim secret—over 100 shallow graves filled with mostly young men, many brutally executed. Dating back to Anglo-Saxon England, the site reveals a hidden execution cemetery where individuals were hanged, beheaded, and discarded without ceremony. As archaeologists investigate, they uncover evidence of harsh medieval justice, social outcasts, and centuries of punishment stretching from Saxon to Norman times. This chilling discovery exposes a brutal world where law, power, and fear shaped life—and death—on the edges of society.

His manifesto had some of the angry talking points fed to the public by Democrat politicians and the media...Last Wednesday, Hakeem Jeffries said, "Maximum warfare, everywhere, all the time. We're in a war right now to save this country. And so you have to be willing to do whatever is necessary in order to save the country."Ted Lieu constantly calls President Trump a pedophile, for which there is no evidence whatsoever.Tim Walz keeps hoping to wake up to news of President Trump's death.Tim Walz and Chris Murphy went to Spain to trash the President. That is what traitors do.

From software engineers to nontechnical staff, Google has urged its employees to fully embrace AI. And it seems like the push to use the tech has resulted in a major productivity leap.In a Wednesday blog post, Google CEO Sundar Pichai said that three-quarters of the company’s new code is AI-generated.“We’ve been using AI to generate code internally at Google for a while,” Pichai said. “Today, 75% of all new code at Google is now AI-generated and approved by engineers, up from 50% last fall.“We’re now shifting to truly agentic workflows. Our engineers are orchestrating fully autonomous digital task forces, firing...

In a race roiled in recent weeks by scandal, Liban Mohamed, the Muslim son of Somali immigrants, pulled off a surprising upset in a crowded 1st Congressional District, winning the endorsement of a majority of Democratic delegates at the party’s state convention Saturday. Mohamed emerged as the top choice in a field with two candidates — state Sen. Nate Blouin and Salt Lake City Council member Eva Lopez Chavez — stung by scandal in the past two weeks and a front-runner, former U.S. Rep. Ben McAdams, who some delegates viewed as too conservative. After several rounds of ranked-choice voting, McAdams...

Mentalist Oz Pearlman, who hosted the White House Correspondents’ Association dinner Saturday night, is revealing the magic trick he performed on Karoline Leavitt moments before shots were fired. Pearlman was seen speaking with the White House press secretary and First Lady Melania Trump, who was sitting next to President Donald Trump, and then showing them a mysterious piece of paper. Moments later, they all ducked to the ground behind the table on stage, before Trump and Melania were rushed out of the Washington Hilton ballroom. ABC News chief Washington correspondent Jonathan Karl later caught up with the mentalist, who revealed...

One of the most pressing issues facing the scientific and medical communities is the catastrophic loss of the public’s trust in accepting their advice and/or recommendations. And it’s overwhelmingly due to their own actions and statements. There are books' worth of examples worth of examples. Such as the early part of the pandemic when they flip-flopped on masks, from claiming that they didn’t work to stating that getting 80% of the public to wear them would end the pandemic in a matter of weeks, to their claims that the lab leak was a racist conspiracy theory, and all the way...

Chaos erupted in the heart of the nation's capital last night as the White House Correspondents' Dinner - Washington's most glitzy annual tradition - was shattered by gunfire. What began as a night of high-society networking and political ribbing at the Washington Hilton turned into a harrowing survival scene. A-list celebrities, government officials and media power players were calmly seated in the ballroom when the festive atmosphere was punctured by the sound of a violent security breach.

The discussion of “dual fulfillment” centers on whether a single prophetic statement can apply to more than one event or time period. Various passages throughout the Bible indicate that, while a prophecy might have had an original or partial fulfillment in the short term, it can also point forward to a more complete or ultimate fulfillment at a later time... 1. Isaiah 7:14 and the Virgin Birth “Therefore the Lord Himself will give you a sign: Behold, the virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and will call Him Immanuel.” The immediate historical background involved a sign given...

Argentine President Javier Milei has launched a new effort to claim control of the Falkland Islands, reigniting a long-standing dispute with the United Kingdom over the archipelago, which once led to war. "THE MALVINAS WERE, ARE, AND ALWAYS WILL BE ARGENTINE,” Milei said on X in Spanish on Friday, using the Argentine name for the islands. In a separate interview with the Argentine digital channel Neura posted by Milei on Friday, he said that the country was doing “everything humanly possible” to return the Falklands to Argentina. “Sovereignty is non-negotiable, but it must be handled judiciously, with brains,” said Milei,...

… By Sunday afternoon, investigators and White House officials — including the president himself — had already released a trove of information, including the suspect’s name and photos. They also divulged clues to his alleged motive and targets — which may have included Trump and administration officials. But in the immediate aftermath of the shooting, when no tangible evidence was available, the conspiracists of the internet turned their attention to the Leavitt quote. “False flag confirmed,” wrote user @ProudSocialist on X, an account with nearly half a million followers. The baseless false flag claim — that the shooting was orchestrated...
