Archaeologists say they have confirmed that a विशाल circle of massive pits near Stonehenge was carved by humans, not formed naturally. Known as the Durrington pit circle, the structure appears to be over a mile wide and made up of around 20 pits, some measuring up to 10 metres across and 5 metres deep. First identified in 2020, it was initially met with scepticism, with some suggesting natural origins. A new study used a combination of advanced techniques — including ground-penetrating radar, electrical resistance mapping, sediment DNA analysis and soil dating — to prove the pits were deliberately excavated by…

Scientists have identified five major phases of brain development across the human lifespan, with key transitions occurring around the ages of 9, 32, 66 and 83, according to a large new study. Researchers analysed brain scans from nearly 4,000 people ranging from infancy to 90 years old. They found that brain development does not follow a smooth, gradual path, but instead shifts through clear “epochs” marked by major changes in neural organisation. The five phases identified were: During childhood, the brain undergoes “network consolidation”, where excess neural connections are trimmed and more active pathways are strengthened. In adolescence, white matter…

The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) is undergoing a structural reorganization, highlighted by the creation of a new Second Amendment Rights Section within its Civil Rights Division. Officials say the move signals federal action and responsiveness, particularly on contentious constitutional issues such as gun rights. The Second Amendment Rights Section will focus on cases involving alleged violations of Americans’ constitutional right to keep and bear arms. The office will investigate complaints, review evidence, and, if necessary, pursue legal action to protect gun rights. DOJ officials emphasized that the office is meant to enforce existing constitutional protections rather than introduce new…

Idrissa Gueye was given a round of applause by his Everton teammates after apologising for the incident that saw him sent off during Monday’s win over Manchester United. The midfielder became the first Premier League player in 17 years to be dismissed for striking a teammate when he slapped Michael Keane during a heated exchange at Old Trafford. The flashpoint followed Gueye’s misplaced pass inside Everton’s penalty area that nearly led to a goal for Bruno Fernandes. Despite playing with 10 men for over 85 minutes, Everton produced a heroic performance to secure a 1–0 victory, giving David Moyes his…

People who stop using the weight-loss drug Mounjaro (tirzepatide) not only tend to regain lost weight but also lose related health improvements, according to new research. The study, published in JAMA Internal Medicine, analysed data from the Surmount-4 clinical trial. Participants first took tirzepatide for 36 weeks, then were split into two groups: one continued the drug for another year, while the other switched to a placebo. Among those who stopped the medication after losing at least 10% of their body weight, 82% regained 25% or more of the weight they had lost within a year. Researchers also found that…

Celtic are moving quickly to appoint Wilfried Nancy as their next manager, with talks expected to accelerate over the weekend. The Columbus Crew boss has emerged as the leading candidate to succeed Brendan Rodgers, whose second spell at the club ended acrimoniously in October. The Scottish champions have informed Columbus of their intentions, and any compensation fee is not expected to be an obstacle. Nancy, who is reportedly keen on the move, could be in place before Celtic’s trip to St Mirren next weekend, ending Martin O’Neill’s brief caretaker spell. Nancy, 47, fits Celtic’s preferred profile of a progressive, adaptable…

Patrick Bamford has joined Sheffield United, just seven months after leading abusive chants about manager Chris Wilder during Leeds United’s promotion celebrations. The 32-year-old striker, who left Leeds by mutual consent in August, has signed a short-term deal with the Blades until January. Despite past tension between the pair — including Wilder once calling Bamford a “muppet” in 2019 — both have moved on as United seek to boost their struggling attack. Following the viral chant in April, Bamford and then-Leeds boss Daniel Farke phoned Wilder to apologise. Wilder later said there were “no issues,” describing the conversation as respectful.…
