Shakib al Hasan: Bangladesh captain banned for corruption Bangladesh Test captain Shakib al Hasan has been given a two-year ban for "failing to report corrupt approaches". The 32-year-old accepted three charges relating to requests for "inside information for betting purposes". The approaches came during an international tri-series also involving Sri Lanka and Zimbabwe in January 2018 and that year's Indian Premier League. Shakib is the top all-rounder in the one-day international rankings and has played 338 matches for Bangladesh. He was the third-highest run-scorer in the 2019 Cricket World Cup and hit two hundreds, including against England in Cardiff in the group stage. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/cricket/50222349

Mysterious ‘gravity waves’ seen rippling out over our atmosphere The waves spread over Australia (Weather Zone) Spectacular rippling waves spread out in the atmosphere above Australia last week - showing off a little-known phenomenon: gravity waves. ‘Gravity waves’ are very different from gravitational waves, the ripples from distant collisions in space captured by detectors on Earth - and refer to waves in our atmosphere. They’re often caused by collisions between air masses of different temperatures, creating ‘ripples’ which can be seen by satellites. Weather expert Andrew Miskelly said, ‘More atmospheric gravity waves. Triggered, in this case, by an outflow from isolated thunderstorms over eastern NSW this afternoon.’ Adam Morgan of the Australian Bureau of Meteorology told ABC, ‘There was a big thunderstorm over the north-west of WA and the disturbance, in this case, was the cold air falling out of the thunderstorm and into the warmer air near the surface. ‘The difference in density there causes the disturbance and then the gravity wave can travel out as the cold air spreads out. ‘The disturbance will exist until everything rebalances itself, that's why they can travel a long way.’ The waves are known as ‘gravity waves’ because they are rebalanced by gravity, Science Alert reports. https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/techandscience/mysterious-gravity-waves-seen-rippling-out-over-our-atmosphere/ar-AAJuNGW

Knights Templar secret tunnels ‘leading to Treasure Tower’ discovered in Israel Secret tunnels built by the Knights Templar to move gold underground to their “treasure tower” have been discovered by archaeologists. The tunnels were found beneath the ancient coastal city of Acre, Israel, and were used by the knights 800 years ago. As well as the tunnels, the team of archaeologists discovered the remnants of the warriors’ lavish fortress headquarters. SLIDES - 1/5 American archaeologist Dr Albert Lin revealed the discovery as part of a National Geographic documentary. Speaking on the programme, he said: “These warrior monks are the stuff of legend, and so is their gold. “During the Crusades the Knights Templar battle for God, gold and glory. Somewhere in the modern city of Acre lies their command centre, and possibly their treasure. “It’s the stuff of childhood dreams. I’m here to find them.” The Knights Templar were devout Christians renowned for fearsome skill in battle during the Crusades, which began in the 11th Century. Using LiDAR technology, Dr Lin’s team scanned a site that was a key fortress for the group during the Third Crusade. The technology uses lasers and detectors to scan the earth without disturbing any artefacts. Scans revealed the secret tunnels and a guardhouse hidden beneath the modern city. The work has revealed how the knights moved gold to their fabled “Treasure Tower”. But the tower is buried beneath metres of dirt and rock and it is not clear if there will be a future excavation. Dr Lin added: “The Templar’s hidden tunnels snaked beneath the streets. “They secretly transported gold to the Acre fortress’ crowning glory, its Treasure Tower.” 1128, A meeting of a branch of the Knights Templar.

(Photo by Spencer Arnold Collection/Hulton Archive/Getty Images) There were a total of nine Crusades during the 11th, 12th and 13th centuries. The original goal was to remove “infidels” from the holy land of Israel – which to this day is one of the holiest cities for Christianity, Judaism and Islam. Crusaders who arrived in Israel were ignorant of Islam and mistook it for a branch of Christianity. Where most Muslims were spared, Jews were brutally slaughtered in their thousands - even European Jewish communities Crusaders encountered on their way to the Middle East. The Dome of the Rock – one of the holiest sites for Muslims – was turned into a church and the Al Aqsa Mosque was turned into stables for the crusaders. The king of Jerusalem gave the Dome to the Knights Templar who maintained it as a headquarters and it became an architectural model for Templar churches across Europe. https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/world/knights-templar-secret-tunnels-leading-to-treasure-tower-discovered-in-israel/ar-AAJuoSx?li=BBoPWjQ#image=1

Origin of modern humans 'traced to Botswana' Scientists have pinpointed the homeland of all humans alive today to a region south of the Zambezi River. The area is now dominated by salt pans but was once home to an enormous lake, which may have been our ancestral heartland 200,000 years ago. Our ancestors settled for 70,000 years until the local climate changed, researchers have proposed. They began to move on as fertile green corridors opened up, paving the way for future migrations out of Africa. "It has been clear for some time that anatomically modern humans appeared in Africa roughly 200,000 years ago," said Prof Vanessa Hayes, a geneticist at the Garvan Institute of Medical Research in Australia. "What has been long debated is the exact location of this emergence and subsequent dispersal of our earliest ancestors." Prof Hayes' conclusions have drawn scepticism from other researchers in the field, however. Lakeland haven The area in question is south of the Zambezi basin, in northern Botswana. The researchers think our ancestors settled near Africa's huge lake system, known as Lake Makgadikgadi, which is now an area of sprawling salt flats. "It's an extremely large area, it would have been very wet, it would have been very lush," said Prof Hayes. "And it would have actually provided a suitable habitat for modern humans and wildlife to have lived." After staying there for 70,000 years, people began to move on. Shifts in rainfall across the region led to three waves of migration 130,000 and 110,000 years ago, driven by corridors of green fertile land opening up. The first migrants ventured north-east, followed by a second wave of migrants who travelled south-west and a third population remained in the homeland until today. This scenario is based on tracing back the human family tree using hundreds of samples of mitochondrial DNA (the scrap of DNA that passes down the maternal line from mother to child) from living Africans. By combining genetics with geology and climate computer model simulations, researchers were able to paint a picture of what the African continent might have been like 200,000 years ago. Reconstructing the human story However, the study, published in the journal Nature, was greeted with caution by one expert, who says you can't reconstruct the story of human origins from mitochondrial DNA alone. Other analyses have produced different answers with fossil discoveries hinting at an eastern African origin. Prof Chris Stringer of the Natural History Museum, London, who is not connected with the study, said the evolution of Homo sapiens was a complex process. "You can't use modern mitochondrial distributions on their own to reconstruct a single location for modern human origins," he told BBC News. "I think it's over-reaching the data because you're only looking at one tiny part of the genome so it cannot give you the whole story of our origins." Thus, there could have been many homelands, rather than one, which has yet to be pinned down.

Telescope tracks 35 million galaxies in Dark Energy hunt VIDEO A super telescope has begun the most detailed survey of the Universe ever undertaken. The aim of the five-year programme is to shed light on Dark Energy - the mysterious force thought to drive an accelerated expansion of the Universe. The instrument effectively contains 5,000 mini-telescopes. Each one can image a galaxy every 20 minutes. In just one year scientists will have surveyed more galaxies than all the other telescopes in the world combined. What is Dark Energy? The Big Bang theory of the creation of the Universe originally predicted that its expansion would slow down and that it would possibly begin to contract as a result of the pull of gravity. However, in 1998, astronomers were shocked to discover that not only was the Universe continuing to expand but that this expansion was also accelerating. The most widely held view is that something is counteracting the pull of gravity - and that something has been termed Dark Energy. FULL REPORT

Archaeologists uncover Essex dock 'where Darwin's ship was dismantled' SLIDES - 1/3 Archaeologists believe they have found the location where Charles Darwin's ship - which took him all over the world - was likely dismantled. HMS Beagle enabled the evolutionist to discover some of the most important scientific discoveries in history. However, once it was decommissioned in 1870, not much was known about where the vessel ended up. Now, a team of archaeologists, commissioned by Historic England, believes it has found the spot where the ship spent her final days. Experts have identified the outline of a dock on the mudflats of the River Roach, near the village of Paglesham in the east of Essex. Using a drone, fitted with a specialist camera which captures red, green, infrared and near-infrared light, a clear outline of the dock can be seen. The device looks at the health of natural life to build up a picture of buried remains. It is based on the principle of differential growth - the idea that buried features affect what grows above ground, in a way similar to the way crop marks are formed in dry weather. Dr Dan Atkinson, director of coastal and marine at Wessex Archaeology, said: "It has been hugely exciting to work on this project, which is starting to shed some light on the famous ship that carried one of science's most renowned individuals. "No evidence has yet been found of the Beagle itself. "It was likely dismantled at the dock, and lots of the material would have been taken and re-purposed elsewhere. "But we know from previous surveys that there are the remains of potentially substantial material in the dock - this could be the remains of the dock itself, another vessel possibly associated with the local oyster fishery or the Beagle - we can't say for sure. "Further analysis of data from the previous survey results, and our recent survey may tell us more." The HMS Beagle was a Cherokee-class 10-gun brig-sloop ship and was built in 1820 at a cost of £7,803, which is the equivalent of around half-a-million pounds in today's money. It was initially used by the government to gather marine data but was later used by Darwin to develop his theory of natural selection across the planet. Once it had finished travelling the globe, the HMS Beagle was re-purposed as a coastguard ship in 1845, where it was used to stop smuggling until 1870, at which point it was sold and believed to be dismantled. https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/offbeat/archaeologists-uncover-essex-dock-where-darwins-ship-was-dismantled/ar-AAJtb77#image=1

'Green gold' tree offers Brazil deforestation hope Trees that help keep soils fertile could slow or stop deforestation in Brazil's "arc of destruction". A project using inga trees hopes to show smallholders that they can earn a decent living from the land. Inga trees, known as ice-cream bean trees, fix nitrogen into the soil, boosting productivity levels. Scientists hope the scheme will convince smallholders not to sell their land to large agri-businesses and remain farmers in the Amazon.

‘Supernatural’ Bronze Age find could shed light on one of London’s greatest prehistoric mysteries VIDEO Archaeological research may be about to shed remarkable new light on one of London’s greatest prehistoric mysteries – the ancient religious status of the River Thames. It’s known that Bronze Age and Iron Age Britons deposited thousands of prehistoric objects in the river as gifts to its deity or spirits. But now, archaeologists investigating a site in east London have discovered what may be a 9th-century BC Bronze Age temple or ceremonial centre established specifically to honour or venerate the Thames as the physical incarnation of such divinity. What’s more, the archaeologists have unearthed hundreds of beautiful bronze artefacts which Bronze Age people had buried in the complex – potentially as votive offerings to that supernatural being.

New Archaeological Evidence Shows Pontius Pilate Not as Bad as We Thought When you hear the name “Pontius Pilate” you probably think of Jesus. After all, were it not for Jesus the vast majority of people would never have heard of him. Historians remember Pilate as a rash and headstrong ruler who unnecessarily offended the religious sensibilities of Jews in Roman Judea, plundered the Temple treasury, and—most famously—sentenced Jesus of Nazareth to die. He was, in other words, an ineffective leader whose actions contributed to political unrest in the region and who is best known for executing a Galilean teacher for treason. But new archaeological discoveries in Jerusalem suggest that perhaps Pilate was not as bad as previously thought. As reported by LiveScience, archaeologists working in Jerusalem have excavated an important nearly 2000-foot-long street that connected the Temple Mount to the pool of Siloam, an ancient religious site where people would bathe and collect freshwater. The existence of the street was well known to archaeologists ever since its discovery by British archaeologists in 1894, but what has emerged from the more recent excavations was that it was Pilate who was responsible for its construction. The archaeologists from Tel Aviv University and the Israel Antiquities Authority who excavated the street discovered a hundred coins dating to between 17 and 30/31 A.D. trapped in the paving stones. This leads them to conclude that most if not all of the construction were performed while Pilate was governor of the region as construction must have been finished by 30/31 A.D., during Pilate’s tenure as governor. Donald T. Ariel, a coin expert who works with the Israel Antiquities Authority, said “Dating using coins is very exact… As some coins have the year in which they were minted on them… statistically, coins minted some 10 years later are the most common coins in [excavations of sites in] Jerusalem, so not having them beneath the street means the street was built before their appearance, in other words only in the time of Pilate.” The fact that the street connects the pool of Siloam and the Temple is suggestive and can tell us something about its purpose. In the New Testament Jesus sends a man “born blind” that he heals to complete his healing. The story might suggest that in the first century the pool was a mikvah (or ritual bath) that had a kind of cleansing or purifying function. Pilgrims could stop there to bathe before approaching the holiest place in Judaism. The story involving Jesus might suggest that the two locations both served a kind of healing function: those who had been sick would bathe before presenting themselves to priests, who would evaluate their physical (and, thus, spiritual) health. For Pilate, as a Roman, the link between healing and temples would have been obvious because temples to the god of healing, Asclepius, were as much healing centres as they were religious sites. The size of the street—approximately 25 feet wide—and the large stone slabs used to pave it suggests that the road had a certain grandeur to it. Joe Uziel and Moran Hagbi, archaeologists at the Israel Antiquities Authority and co-authors of the recently published article “Pontius Pilate in Jerusalem: The Monumental Street from the Siloam Pool to the Temple Mount” argued that if this was a simple walkway joining two points there would be no need for a thoroughfare of such size: “its finely carved stone and ornate 'furnishings' …all indicate that this was a special street.” Taken together all of this evidence points to the importance of the street for those ascending to the Temple Mount. This would mean that during his time as governor Pilate used funds to construct a road that would help Jewish pilgrims reach the Temple Mount. This would be out of character for a man best known for his religious insensitivity and heavy-handed approach to leadership. A former soldier, Pilate took an aggressive stance towards those under his rule. According to the first-century Jewish historian Josephus, Pilate flouted the Jewish prohibition against idolatry by having Roman soldiers bring imperial standards that included the emperor’s image into Jerusalem (albeit at night). The incident provoked outrage and a crowd journeyed to Pilate’s residence at Caesarea to implore him to remove the standards. They remained there, prostrate, for five days. After five days of protest, Pilate gathered the crowd in the market-place, seemingly to render a decision on the matter. Instead of speaking, he had soldiers encircle the protesters and draw their swords. He told the Jews gathered there that unless they relented he would have them cut in pieces. In response, the protesters purportedly bared their necks as a sign that they were prepared to die. At this point, Pilate had to back down and removed the standards from the city. The Jewish philosopher Philo, who calls Pilate “inflexible, stubborn, and cruel,” offers another story that also portrays Pilate as an over-zealous ruler. In his Embassy to Caligula, he writes that Pilate deliberately tried to “annoy” the Jewish people by setting up gilded shields in Herod’s palace in Jerusalem. When the authorities asked him to remove them, he refused and the people had to write to Emperor Tiberius asking for his help. Philo adds that Pilate was afraid that the people would reveal to Tiberius “his violence, his thefts, his assaults, his abusive behaviour, his frequent execution of untried prisoners, and his endless savagery.” If true, it would seem that Pilate treated Jesus better than others. Philo is biased, but it’s obvious that Pilate was no diplomat either. On another occasion, Josephus says, Pilate used funds from the Temple treasury to pay for the construction of an aqueduct. Compared to these stories, the biblical descriptions of Jesus’s trial before Pilate make him appear reasonable and thoughtful. According to Josephus, Pilate’s governorship ended after the slaughter of a group of Samaritans near Mount Gerizim. Pilate was then recalled to Rome for a hearing. We do not know what happened but one thing is certain: Pilate did not return to Judea. One historically questionable tradition, relayed in the writings of the fourth-century Christian historian Eusebius, says that Pilate committed suicide. The discovery that Pilate was responsible for building the street from the pool of Siloam to the Temple Mount suggests that there was another side to the intemperate governor. One in which Pilate funded public works for the benefit of both the local people and their religion. That Pilate would take such steps is especially interesting given that Joan Taylor has suggested that Pilate had been trying to promote the imperial cult in the region. Whether the purpose of the road was to serve religious tourists, benefit locals, or facilitate healing practices, it seems that Pilate’s building project was altruistic in nature: it was something he did either to placate or to please Jewish authorities and locals. All of which suggests that perhaps Pilate was more sensitive and complicated than we have thought. https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/offbeat/new-archaeological-evidence-shows-pontius-pilate-not-as-bad-as-we-thought/ar-AAJqpDB

An Ancient Maya Staircase Is Brought Back to Life — and Back to Mexico SLIDES - 1/5 An ancient Maya monument damaged by erosion has been brought back to life at a temple site in Mexico after a new version was re-created with 3D printing technology using Victorian-era copies preserved in the British Museum. The rebirth of the Hieroglyphic Stairway at Palenque was made possible by the museum’s fortuitous collection of hundreds of plaster casts of Maya inscriptions taken 130 years ago by the British explorer and diplomat Alfred Maudslay. Maudslay hacked through the jungles of Middle America in the 1880s on a mission to uncover the secrets of the Maya, recording with casts and photographs monuments that have subsequently become illegible due to their exposure to the elements. The British Museum and Google Arts & Culture, a not-for-profit arm of the tech company, laser-scanned the plaster casts, which had lain in storage for more than a century, and commissioned a limestone reproduction from Pangolin Editions, a Gloucestershire-based foundry better known for creating sculptures for artists such as Damien Hirst. The stairway has been flown to Mexico and will be put on permanent display at the site, where visitors will be encouraged to touch the glyphs and read a translation of the inscription. Jago Cooper, curator of the Americas at the British Museum, said the project was “a journey of understanding built on the latest technology of our time.” “You can now see what the ancient Maya were trying to do with this staircase, which currently you can’t.” Maudslay’s preference for recording rather than retrieving objects gives the museum some welcome relief from a series of disputes over some of the artefacts in its collection, from the Parthenon Marbles taken from Athens by Lord Elgin to the Benin bronzes looted by British troops in the 19th century. Sir Richard Lambert, chairman of the British Museum trustees, described restitution as “an existential question” for the institution at an event in London in July. With the exception of a handful of artefacts he feared would be looted and so had sent to London, Maudslay used the then cutting-edge techniques of plaster casting and photography to capture the monuments in situ, bringing large glass plates and phytochemicals into the jungle interior on mules, as well as tons of plaster mix. The project has won the support of the Mexican government, but some indigenous descendants of the Maya, now spread across Mexico, Honduras, Guatemala and elsewhere, raised questions over the focus given to heritage when many communities remain marginalized. “There’s a lot of interest in dead Maya and not living Maya. They reduce us to folklore … when we are stuck in poverty today,” says Pedro Uc, a teacher and farmer in Buctzotz, northeast of the city of Mérida, and a member of the Múuch’ Xíinbal assembly of defenders of the Maya territory. Atanacio Gómez Encino, a custodian of the archaeological zone in Palenque and himself a Maya, applauded the decision to protect the original steps from further deterioration but lamented the fact that conservation projects at the site were foreign initiatives. “The Mexican government should provide enough cash for conservation and protection,” he says. British Museum curators have spent time with indigenous Maya communities in the state of Yucatán, explaining the significance of the ancient sites as well as the role played by Maudslay’s Maya collaborators, captured in the many photographs he took of them. Last Tuesday Maudslay’s entire archive of photographs, diaries, drawings and casts was made available on the Google Arts & Culture site as part of the project, with the help of Mexico’s National Institute of Anthropology and History. Virtual reality and augmented reality tours of the sites are published in English and Spanish, while Maya scholars can examine online the entire cast collection scanned in 3D, altering the position of the light source and point of view to help them decode the highly complex text. The digitization of Maudslay’s glass plate photographs revealed details not previously observed, the museum says, including stucco decoration on the facades of buildings as well as the dress, tools and even the facial expressions of his colleagues. https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/offbeat/an-ancient-maya-staircase-is-brought-back-to-life-—-and-back-to-mexico/ar-AAJkoVI#image=1

Brexit: Will the Falkland Islands wildlife suffer? Squids, penguins and elephant seals. No, not a scene from a David Attenborough series, but just some of the wildlife that live in the Falkland Islands. But local conservationists are worried that the Falklands will not have enough resources to protect its environment after the UK leaves the EU. "We might stop being able to protect the amazing wildlife," Michelle Winnard, a local conservationist, tells Radio 1 Newsbeat. The Falkland Islands sit in the south-west Atlantic Ocean - and remains the subject of a dispute between Britain and Argentina who fought a war over it in 1982. It held a referendum in 2013 and opted to remain an overseas UK territory - which means the Falklands are self-governing - but the UK is still responsible for foreign and defence matters.
