Potentially dangerous social media trends are getting kids, and potentially homeowners, into trouble this summer while kids are out of school.Two trends in particular are going viral on social media, including the "UrbanEx," or "urban exploration," challenge and the "door-kicking challenge.""There's a new trend every day. You go to the FYP, the For You Page, you see what's trending. And then pretty soon, you'll see content created by children, which is in and of itself problematic. A lot of the children under the age of 13 are legally not allowed to even be on social media," Titania Jordan, CMO and chief parent officer at Bark Technologies, a parental control app, told Fox News Digital.Social media challenges prompt users to create more "content that elicits a reaction," she explained, "that has viral components, resurfaces and resurfaces again, thanks again to the algorithm."OVER HALF OF TOP 100 MENTAL HEALTH TIKTOK VIDEOS CONTAIN MISINFORMATION: REPORT"This sort of content is going to get likes, it's going to get comments, it is going to get shares. It's going to encourage children to try to emulate it because it's clout they gain clout from their peers because of this," she said. "Any challenge like this, children aren't thinking, Is this the right thing to do? Is this safe? They're thinking, 'I want validation,' and children are going to get killed. I mean, just one person who is armed who gets their door kicked in by a kid, and you're gonna have another national headline that is very sad."Law enforcement agencies across the country are warning of both trends, the former of which challenges social media users to explore abandoned buildings and the latter of which challenges them to kick in strangers' doors.TEXAS BILL PUSHES STRICTEST SOCIAL MEDIA BAN FOR MINORS IN THE NATIONWhile the door-kicking challenge has existed for years, multiple agencies have issued recent warnings, indicating a possible uptick in the trend this summer. An Ohio police department recently warned about the challenge, saying it is investigating four incidents that occurred in Byesville."Reports of doors being kicked in on homes began to come in during the middle of the night. Officers have collected evidence from neighborhoods indicating that a social media trend called the Door Kicking Challenge is behind these acts," the Byesville Police Department said in a Facebook post. "The suspects are not entering the homes; instead, they are merely kicking the front doors and then fleeing the scene."Byesville police added that authorities are collecting physical evidence from the scenes of these crimes, including video footage.Byesville PD Chief Daulton Dolan told Fox News Digital that the door-kick challenges take "ding dong ditch" to a new level, especially in stand-your-ground states like Ohio."If you feel that your life or a life of your family members are threatened, you can take deadly force against somebody right there on the spot. So, for instance, if someone kicks open [a] door in the middle of the night, and the homeowner believes that they're coming in can physically harm them, they're going to shoot at them if they have a gun nearby," Dolan said. "And in Southeast Ohio we've seen that before."Additionally, in Ohio, if a person's leg enters another person's home by kicking a door in, that can result in a burglary charge, on top of possibly trespassing charges, Dolan explained.Homeowners might also face a lengthy process in the criminal justice system if they choose to defend themselves with a gun if someone kicks their door open, Dolan said."Our job would be: if the homeowner did fire a weapon if somebody had kicked open their door, we would conduct an investigation into that. Of course, we would seize the weapon that was used in it as evidence. We would take any kind of interviews and reports, medical exams, pictures, measurements, everything and then we would turn it over to the Guernsey County Prosecutor's Office [who] can rule it out as a justified homicide or they can move it up further and go to a grand jury."The Fleetwood Police Department in Pennsylvania on June 8 warned that a "TikTok door knock or door kick challenge encourages kids and teens to record themselves doing just that; knocking on and/or kicking random doors, usually late at night.""While ding dong ditch has been a hallmark for decades of kids who were looking to have a little mischievous fun, todays youth have taken things to a more serious level by kicking at doors and ultimately causing damage," the department wrote. "Besides the financial consequences to homeowners who are often left with the expense of repairs, there is the potential for a child to be seriously hurt or even killed by someone who believes, especially in the middle of the night, that their residence is being broken into and ultimately determines there is an imminent threat to life and property."The Flower Mound Police Department and The Oak Harbor Police Department in Washington also said they have seen the trend on TikTok.SKINNYTOK WEIGHT-LOSS TREND COULD LEAD TO FOOD DEPRIVATION, EXPERTS CAUTIONThe Fort Worth Police Department in Texas issued a similar warning recently."This trend has been reported across the country, including right here in Texas," the Fort Worth PD said. "It is imperative that individuals partaking in this trend understand that even if no burglary or theft occur, this behavior is illegal and considered vandalism and can lead to criminal charges. More critically, it can be mistaken as an attempted break-in, potentially prompting dangerous or defensive responses from homeowners."The department further urged parents "to speak with their children about the risks and consequences of participating in trends like this," adding that "what may seem like a prank can result in very real trouble and/or danger."Meanwhile, another trend called "UrbanEx" has made headlines recently for putting participating social media users behind bars. The "challenge" encourages users to explore abandoned buildings, from old schools to churches to retail and entertainment establishments.The Harris County Constables in Precinct One in Texas recently announced the arrests of three 18-year-old men, who are accused of trespassing in the Houston Astrodome, which has been closed since 2009.The Constables office said security guards for the venue saw the three men enter the stadium around midnight and later spotted them running across a parking lot and jumping a fence. The three teens are charged with trespassing."Sneaking into closed old historic buildings is dangerous," Constable Precinct One Alan Rosen said in a June 10 statement. "You are taking a risk for yourself and first responders, and it is against the law."A June 8 video showing the interior of the Astrodome posted by Urbex.tx had nearly 845,000 views on TikTok.CHILD SAFETY MUST BE PRIORITY OF TIKTOK NEGOTIATIONS, PARENTS GROUP URGES VP VANCELast year, a 23-year-old man named Guillermo Leflore, known as "Urbex Tarzan" on TikTok, was arrested after officials said he trespassed on private property while exploring steam tunnels. It wasn't his first time attempting a dangerous stunt for social media; he is accused of previously attempting to climb the Milwaukee Art Museum, as FOX 6 Milwaukee first reported.Ari Lightman, professor of digital media and marketing at Carnegie Mellon University's Heinz College of Information Systems and Public Policy, told Fox News Digital that social media trends resemble what used to be games of truth-or-dare "on steroids.""You're reaching tens of thousands of people. You're not daring somebody face-to-face," Lightman said. "Why are they doing that? Is it just to get likes, and those likes might turn into followers, and those followers might turn into advertisers, and those advertisers might turn into profits for some people? Is it even real, or is it AI generated?"Defenders of the UrbanEx trend say it exposes historically significant structures that have been left to rot; many social media users have been calling on local city leaders to revive abandoned schools, houses, churches and event spaces."Just the general lack of respect amongst children today, whether it's for people's property in the classroom or other people's feelings, it's a big problem. They're lacking empathy and respect because they're spending too much time in front of a screen and not enough understanding in real-life human emotion," Jordan said.She advised parents to join a Facebook group called "Parenting in a Tech World" where the "latest trends are being shared there from parents whose children are experiencing it in real time." She also advised parents to talk to their kids candidly and calmly about what they are seeing online, and Google the trends that are appearing on the social media pages."Maybe your kid's playing Roblox and you don't think it's safe. Google dangers of Roblox. Show your child how other children have been harmed by adults they have been lured by on that platform so they realize you're not just being overprotective," she said."All you can do is have candid calm conversations with them, and not just talking to them or talking at them, but asking them what they've seen. What did they think? What do they think the dangers are of hanging around an old building and recording it? Maybe they say they don't know, and that can encourage a conversation right there."

Researchers in London recently announced that a giant "archaeological puzzle" has been solved, revealing artwork that's been hidden for 1,800 years.The Museum of London Archaeology (MOLA) announced in a June 17 press release that one of its experts successfully reconstructed a collection of Roman wall plaster. (See the video at the top of this article.)The collection of painted ancient plaster is the largest ever discovered in London and it took an enormous amount of work.SINKHOLE IN HISTORIC CITY REVEALS MEDIEVAL HOSPITAL HIDING JUST BENEATH STREET LEVEL"The decorated plaster was found dumped in a large pit, shattered into thousands of fragments," the museum's statement noted."It took three months for MOLA Senior Building Material Specialist Han Li to lay out all the fragments and painstakingly piece the designs back together."The mosaic once decorated a high-status Roman building in the Central London district of Southwark, officials said.The building "was demolished some time before AD 200," MOLA's statement read."These beautiful frescoes once decorated around 20 internal walls of an early Roman (AD 43-150) building," the museum noted."Now, for the first time in over 1800 years, these vibrant artworks can be reconstructed to reveal their full glory."ANCIENT ROMAN COIN TREASURE FINALLY REVEALED TO PUBLIC AFTER BEING HIDDEN FOR CENTURIESOfficials said the fresco was designed to show off the property owner's wealth, as well as its good taste.They noted the fresco includes "yellow panel designs with black intervals beautifully decorated with images of birds, fruit, flowers and lyres.""Finding repeating yellow panels like these is [rare] While panel designs were common during the Roman period, yellow panels weren't," the museum said."They have been identified at only a few sites across the country."Historians also excitedly came across the remains of the artist's signature though that identity is still lost to time.For more Lifestyle articles, visit foxnews.com/lifestyle"[The signature] is framed by a tabula ansata, a carving of a decorative tablet used to sign artwork in the Roman world," the statement detailed. "It contains the Latin word FECIT, which translates to 'has made this.'""Tragically, the fragment is broken where the painters name would have appeared, meaning the [person's] identity will likely never be known."Like many Ancient Roman discoveries, the mosaic also displayed some graffiti left behind by the owners and visitors.Among the graffiti was a drawing of a crying woman with a distinct Flavian period hairstyle, as well as the Greek alphabet.CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR OUR LIFESTYLE NEWSLETTER"[O]ther examples in Italy suggest that the alphabet served a practical use, such as a checklist, tally or reference," the museum said, noting that it's the only known example of its kind from Roman Britain.In a statement, archaeologist Han Li called the discovery a "once in a lifetime moment.""I felt a mix of excitement and nervousness when I started to lay the plaster out," the expert recalled."Many of the fragments were very delicate and pieces from different walls had been jumbled together when the building was demolished, so it was like assembling the worlds most difficult jigsaw puzzle."Li also remarked that "[not] even individuals of the late Roman period in London" would have seen the art, making the discovery particularly special.The discovery of the Roman fresco in London offers a vivid glimpse into the era when Romans ruled Britain, from 43 A.D. to 410 A.D.They maintained their presence in Britain for nearly four centuries before beginning their withdrawal in 410 A.D and many remnants of their power and influence are being found today.In May, British archaeologists announced the discovery of an unusual eight-sided ring in a former drainage ditch.This winter, a Roman grave filled with gypsum was found during a highway construction project in England.

Christie Brinkley is no stranger to love.The legendary supermodel, who has been married four times, admitted she's a "fool for love" in a candid new interview with the New York Times. In her conversation with the outlet, she spoke in detail about her divorces, and whether she's willing to open her heart again."Im too trusting," she admitted when asked about what she's learned from her marriages. "Im a fool for love. That love takes work. Sometimes you need to rely on experts. I wish I could have found ways to save some; I wish I hadnt married others."CHRISTIE BRINKLEY ADMITS LEAVING BILLY JOEL WASN'T EASY, SAYS BOOZE WAS THE OTHER WOMANBrinkley's first husband was artist Jean-Franois Allaux the two wed in 1975, when she was 21 years old. They divorced in 1981, and four years later she married Billy Joel. Brinkley and Joel divorced in 1994, and that same year she married real estate developer Richard Taubman. She divorced him a year later, and a year after that she married architect Peter Cook. She was with him until their contentious divorce was finalized in 2008.She told the New York Times, "I always believed in soul mates. I thought I had four of them. Now Im not sure. Maybe I had my two soul mates with Jean and Billy. Maybe I rushed out of my marriage to Jean. Maybe I should have tried to make it work longer with Billy. I did start to wonder if maybe its me if I was unlovable."When asked, she clarified, "Im not unlovable, but the relationships I was in made me feel unloved. I have enough self-esteem to know that in the right arms, Im lovable. And I wasnt loved correctly. One loved my money more than me. Another loved his drink more than me. Another loved young women more than me. And in my first one, I loved my freedom more than him."CHRISTIE BRINKLEY SHARES HER TOP BEAUTY TIP AND SECRET TO FITNESS IN HER SEVENTIESHer first husband, Allaux, was the one she said she left for her "freedom." She said that with him, it was "love at first sight," and while their marriage was successful for years, it was a "slow dissolve.""I got married too young. I started to feel constrained and regretted being tied down," she admitted.In her recently released memoir, "Uptown Girl," Brinkley explained that she'd met Allaux when she was just 19 years old. She'd moved to Paris to become an artist and met him soon after, and after six years of marriage, she wrote, "I started to wonder what else and who else might be out there."In the time since she'd met him, she'd "changed considerably, transforming from a girl from Malibu bound for Paris with only a backpack, paints and bohemian ideals to a top model with two mortgages, an endless zeal for adventure, and one big career."Joel is the ex-husband she claimed "loved his drink more than me" the singer has been open about his past struggles with addiction, and Brinkley wrote in her memoir that "booze was the other woman." She said of their marriage, "When you become the bad cop, its over. If we had been older when it happened, maybe we could have figured it out."In an April interview with Today.com, Brinkley explained that her relationship with Joel was the most difficult to write about in her memoir because they're still friends, but she said he gave her his blessing."He said, 'Just say what you need to say,'" Brinkley said. "And I think that's part of his healing, so I applaud him for all of that. It takes a lot of courage."BILLY JOEL'S EX CHRISTIE BRINKLEY SENDS HEARTFELT MESSAGE DAYS AFTER SINGER'S BRAIN DISORDER DIAGNOSISAs for the ex who "loved my money more than me," Brinkley referred to third husband Taubman. "Ricky was a larger-than-life character who married me for my money," she claimed. "Our relationship was complicated by the fact that I was pregnant, and I wanted to make the right decisions. The relationship came on the heels of my divorce from Billy, which I was devastated about."In "Uptown Girl," she wrote that after their son Jack was born, she had a session with her therapist and made the choice to give their marriage one more shot. She took Jack from New York, where she'd delivered the baby, back home to Taubman in Colorado, and she claimed that when she arrived, he asked her for money."Thats when I knew that this was not nor could it ever be love or even a real relationship: it was usership, manipulation, and at its worst, emotional torture," she wrote. "I booked a flight back to New York."When she arrived, she said Taubman called her and told her "I'm going to walk away from you and the baby" just like her biological father did to her. After that phone call, she filed for divorce.Finally, the one who "loved young women more than me" refers to Cook, who had an affair while married to Brinkley. "I was married to a stranger who had other lives. I had three children. I wanted to protect them from the fallout and from their life being blown apart. The divorce lasted for years. It was agonizing."LIKE WHAT YOURE READING? CLICK HERE FOR MORE ENTERTAINMENT NEWSBrinkley filed for divorce from Cook in 2006 after finding out that he'd been having an affair with his teenage assistant. The divorce proceedings took place in open court, and at one point in her testimony, she sobbed, saying, "I felt like the man who I was living with, I just didn't know who he was... anymore. Who is he? Who is this man who comes down and sits at the dining room table and acts like he's been at work?" per ABC News.In her memoir, she called her relationship with Cook "one of the most tormented experiences Ive ever had."Brinkley is a mother of three: daughters Alexa Ray, who she shares with Joel, and Sailor, who she shares with Cook, as well as son Jack, who she had with Taubman but who was later adopted by Cook.The model confessed the thing she regrets most is "Not being able to sit with an open photo album with my husband and go, Look, remember this? Remember the kids?"CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR THE ENTERTAINMENT NEWSLETTERDespite everything, Brinkley admitted to the New York Times that she's still open to the idea of finding a partner."Everything Ive been through, all the pain, the stupidity, I would do it again because I believe in love," she shared. "I think it would be sad not to. Im not sure I want to give up the freedom I have now. It gets harder to meet people and harder to trust. It would take a special person to get me to want to share my life. I have made peace without having it. I have been making it through without a man for a lot of years. I dont need a person to make me happy. Im happy."She added, "But I have so much happiness in me, I would love to share it with someone I love."

EXCLUSIVE: The Trump administration is turning its attention to the Smithsonian Institution, accusing the taxpayer-funded museum complex of using federal dollars to promote what it calls "one-sided, divisive political narratives" that fail to honor the greatness of the American story.White House official Lindsey Halligan blasted content currently on display at the National Museum of American Historys Entertainment Nation exhibit in an exclusive email to Fox News Digital.The exhibit, which explores American pop culture, has drawn internal and external criticism for what some see as a politically loaded interpretation of cultural milestones."American taxpayers should not be funding institutions that undermine our country or promote one-sided, divisive political narratives," Halligan said. "The Smithsonian Institution should present history in a way that is accurate, balanced, and consistent with the values that make the United States of America exceptional."DONALD TRUMP FIRES NATIONAL PORTRAIT GALLERY DIRECTOR FOR BEING 'STRONG SUPPORTER' OF DEIThe White House statement comes on the heels of several striking examples from the exhibit.One placard, featured alongside a 1923 circus poster, reads: "Under the big top, circuses expressed the colonial impulse to claim dominion over the world." Another, describing early American entertainment, declares: "One of the earliest defining traits of entertainment in the United States was extraordinary violence."The exhibit reframes iconic American characters through a critical, politically-charged lens. On The Lone Ranger, the display states: "The White title characters relationship with Tonto resembled how the U.S. government imagined itself the worlds Lone Ranger."Mickey Mouse, a beloved American cultural icon, is not spared either. A display for the 1928 cartoon Steamboat Willie states, "Mickey challenged authority, but not everyone was in on the joke."It continues: "Mickey Mouse debuted as the deckhand Steamboat Willie in 1928, amidst a rising anxiety felt by many that modern living and city life were eroding family and community ties and loosening moral codes But the new characters outsized facial features, white gloves, and trickster temperament were vestiges of longstanding traditions of blackface minstrelsy."In reference to the Indiana Jones film series, another panel reads: "His character embodied a confident righteousness that, in many ways, captured the essence of the 1980s" above another subhead referencing President Ronald Reagan's famous speech, asking, "Are you better off?"KENT STATE STUDENT'S VIOLENT ANTI-TRUMP ART DISPLAY SPURS OUTRAGEOne panel calls Magnum, P.I. a challenge to the "popular perceptions of Vietnam veterans as damaged misfits." A section on Jon Stewarts Daily Show refers to it as "the go-to for viewers who mistrusted politicians and the reporting process."Another panel highlights the late pop star Selena Quintanilla-Prez and frames her cultural impact through identity politics."Selena got us talking about identity," with a quote from the late singer reading, "I feel very proud to be Mexican."The text goes on to say her work "cast a light on the longstanding cultural and growing political influence of Mexican American and Latinx communities within the United States.""The examples [Fox News Digital] highlighted from the National Museum of American History are part of the problem the Trump Administration aims to fix," Halligan said. "Framing American culture as inherently violent, imperialist, or racist does not reflect the greatness of our nation or the millions of Americans who have contributed to its progress."Halligan confirmed that a top-to-bottom content review is already underway, with input from senior Smithsonian leaders and the Board of Regents. "We are working with leadership at the Smithsonian to audit and review all content at the museums," she said, "and we are committed to ensuring that such content honors our countrys founding principles, tells the stories of American heroes, and does not promote fringe or activist ideologies masquerading as history."She added, "We will provide updates on this audit as our progress unfolds."The Smithsonian Institution responded to Fox News Digital with the following brief written statement: "The museum is committed to continuous and rigorous scholarship and research and unbiased presentation of facts and history. As such, and as previously announced, we are assessing content in Smithsonian museums and will make any necessary changes to ensure our content meets our standards."The Institution did not answer specific questions regarding who authored the Entertainment Nation exhibit, whether outside academic consultants or activist organizations were involved, or who made the decision to present all exhibit text bilingually in English and Spanish.The controversy comes amid a broader push by President Donald Trump to reshape cultural institutions he says have veered too far left.In March, Trump issued an executive order directing the Board of Regents to eliminate "improper, divisive or anti-American ideology" from Smithsonian museums. He accused the institution of embracing what he called "a revisionist movement" aimed at "undermining the remarkable achievements of the United States by casting its founding principles and historical milestones in a negative light."The Board of Regents includes the vice president, the chief justice of the United States, six members of Congress, and nine citizen regents.Vice President J.D. Vance and Congressman Carlos Gimnez, both recent appointees, have advocated for an expedited review of Smithsonian content. Gimnez, in a prior interview with The Wall Street Journal, confirmed tensions at the boards June meeting over how quickly to proceed, though ultimately a compromise was reached.The Smithsonian receives approximately two-thirds of its $1 billion annual budget from federal appropriations.The Entertainment Nation exhibit opened in December 2022 and was billed as a permanent exhibition to "celebrate the power of popular culture to shape and reflect history." It is housed in a prime space on the museums west wing and features artifacts and media from movies, television, sports, and music.CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APPWhile the museums stated goal is to explore how entertainment intersects with American identity, the Trump administration argues that it instead uses culture to smuggle in ideology often at odds with the values most Americans hold."Americans deserve a Smithsonian that inspires national pride, tells the truth, and reflects the greatness of this country," Halligan said. "Not one that serves as an agent for social change and cultural subversion."

Several sharks were spotted in New York City waters on the Fourth of July, prompting the city to close a temporary a stretch of beach in Queens.Video shared on social media shows a sharks swimming close to beachgoers in Far Rockaway, Queens.The beasts were spotted at around 11:30 a.m. near Beach 32nd Street. Another sighting was reported at Beach 144th Street and a third at Beach 30th Street, Kaz Daughtry, the city's deputy mayor for public safety, wrote on X.RIP CURRENT BEACH RESCUES SHOW SWIMMERS FACE DEADLY RISKS: WHAT TO KNOW TO STAY SAFE"These sightings were very close to beachgoers. But thanks to drone tech, lifeguards, and the dedicated professionals at @nycemergencymgt, were keeping everyone safe as they enjoy the holiday,"Daughtry said. "B30 was closed for an hour. But is now back open. We will continue to monitor the beach and keep all updated."Christina Farrell, the first deputy commissioner for NYC Emergency Management, said the agency's drone unit was monitoring shark activity to keep everyone safe.Earlier this week, New York Gov. Kathy Hochul reassured New Yorkers that authorities were taking measures to monitors sharks along the state's beaches, particularly on Long Island, ahead of the holiday weekend.'SHARK WEEK' HOST WARNS BEACHGOERS WHERE AND WHEN PREDATORS ARE MOST LIKELY TO ATTACK"Our Long Island State Park beaches are cherished by New Yorkers and visitors alike perfect places to get offline, get outside and enjoy the outdoors," Gov. Kathy Hochul said in a Wednesday statement."We are continuing to strengthen our shark surveillance capabilities and safety tactics at these beaches to help protect these treasured summertime traditions," she added. "I encourage all beachgoers to stay safe, stay alert and always follow the direction of lifeguards and park staff."New York State Parks Commissioner Pro Tem Randy Simons said his agency was well-prepared to keep beachgoers safe."Our staff is well prepared to safeguard beachgoers this summer season, and were excited to adopt the latest technology to be even more effective," he said. "I encourage beachgoers to follow guidance and directions from parks staff and be shark smart while enjoying their summer fun."

Neanderthals living 125,000 years ago in what is now modern-day Germany may have extracted and eaten fat from animal bones through an organized food preparation process that scientists describe as a "fat factory."While excavating the site of a former lake landscape called Neumark-Nord, archaeologists discovered thousands of bones from at least 172 large mammals, along with flint artifacts. The bones, which date back to an interglacial period in which Neanderthals lived, were from animals like red deer and horses, according to a study published on July 2 in Science Advances.While many of the bones that contained less bone marrow were spread out across the archaeological site, researchers observed that many of the marrow-rich bones were located in clusters sites they call "fat factories."RARE CHRISTIAN CROSS AMONG SPECTACULAR 1,000-YEAR-OLD VIKING TREASURES FOUND BY METAL DETECTORISTSResearchers believe our extinct ancestors used tools to smash the bones into small fragments and then boiled them for hours. The grease, which then floated to the surface of the water, could be skimmed off the top and eaten providing a calorie-dense food source for the archaic people.VIKING-ERA BURIAL SITE WITH ELITE FAMILY TREASURES AND GIFTS DISCOVERED, PLUS AN 'UNUSUAL CASKET'Prior to this, evidence of the practice had only dated back to 28,000 years ago, according to the research."Neanderthals were clearly managing resources with precision planning hunts, transporting carcasses, and rendering fat in a task-specific area," Dr. Lutz Kindler, the studys first author, said. "They understood both the nutritional value of fat and how to access it efficiently most likely involving caching carcass parts at places in the landscape for later transport to and use at the grease rendering site.MYSTERIOUS 'DUMPED' BODIES OF WOMAN AND CHILD FOUND BY ARCHAEOLOGISTS IN PICTURESQUE TOWNFat was a "life-sustaining" resource for Neanderthals, especially during the winter and spring seasons when carbohydrates were scarce. Their diets consisted largely of animal protein, and consuming lots of protein without other nutrients could lead to a sometimes deadly condition called protein poisoning, the research noted."The sheer size and extraordinary preservation of the Neumark-Nord site complex gives us a unique chance to study how Neanderthals impacted their environment, both animal and plant life," Dr. Fulco Scherjon, data manager and computer scientist on the project, said. "Thats incredibly rare for a site this oldand it opens exciting new possibilities for future research."In recent years, scientists have also discovered that Neanderthals went diving for seashells that they could chip with stone hammers into thin and sharp cutting edges. Similarly, another study suggested Neanderthals may have buried their dead with flowers.Researchers Lutz Kindler and Wil Roebroeks did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment.

Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum said on Friday she expects boxer Julio Cesar Chvez Jr. to be deported to Mexico to serve a sentence for alleged arms trafficking and organized crime, after he was arrested by ICE in Los Angeles on Thursday.Chvez was found to be in the country illegally last week after he made fraudulent statements on a 2024 application for permanent residency based on his marriage to a U.S. citizen.CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COM"The hope is that he will be deported and serve the sentence in Mexico," Sheinbaum said during her daily news briefing Friday, referring to charges that Chvez faces for arms and drug trafficking.The 39-year-old boxer, according to his attorney Michael Goldstein, was picked up on Wednesday by a large number of federal agents while he was riding a scooter in front of a home where he resides in the upscale Los Angeles neighborhood of Studio City, near Hollywood.The arrest came only days after the former middleweight champion lost a match against influencer-turned-boxer Jake Paul in Anaheim, California.Chvez split his time between both countries. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers detained Chvez for overstaying a tourist visa that he entered the U.S. with in August 2023 and expired in February 2024, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security said.According to the department, Chvez Jr. has been charged with several crimes while in the U.S.WHO IS JULIO CESAR CHAVEZ JR.? MEXICAN BOXER TO BE DEPORTED BY ICE AFTER LOSING TO JAKE PAULOn Jan. 22, 2012, the California Highwaay Patrol arrested Chvez and charged him with DUI alcohol/drugs and driving without a license. On June 23, 2012, the Superior Court of California, County of Los Angeles, convicted Chvez of the offense of driving under the influence of alcohol and sentenced him to 13 days in jail and 36 months probation.On Jan. 14, 2023, a District Judge issued an arrest warrant for Chvez for the offense of organized crime for the purpose of committing crimes of weapons trafficking and manufacturing crimes, in the modality of those who participate in clandestinely bringing weapons, ammunition, cartridges, explosives into the country; and those who manufacture weapons, ammunition, cartridges and explosives without the corresponding permit.On Jan. 7, 2024, the Los Angeles Police Department arrested Chvez and charged him with Illegal possession of an assault weapon and manufacture or import of a short-barreled rifle. The court convicted Chvez of these charges.'DHS also suspects Chvez is allegedly believed to be an affiliate of the Sinaloa Cartel, a designated Foreign Terrorist Organization. Chvezs application was based on his marriage to a U.S. citizen, who is connected to the Sinaloa Cartel through a prior relationship with the now-deceased son of the infamous cartel leader Joaquin "El Chapo" Guzman, according to DHS.According to DHS, in December 2024, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services had made a referral to ICE that Chvez was an "egregious public safety threat," but he was allowed to reenter the country on Jan. 4, 2025 after records indicated the Biden Administration had not made him an immigration enforcement priority.The Biden administration allowed Chvez to re-enter the country and paroled him into the country at the San Ysidro port of entry, accorrding to DHS.The Associated Press contributed to this report.Follow Fox News Digitalssports coverage on X, and subscribe tothe Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.

Caitlin Clark's Indiana Fever head coach Stephanie White was given a technical foul and a fine during Thursday's win against the Las Vegas Aces for yelling at WNBA referees. Now, White has suggested that Clark offered to pay the fine.The foul came when White was yelling toward officials during an Indiana possession with just over five minutes left in the fourth quarter and the Fever leading the Aces by 23, when one referee signaled for a technical foul on the coach.Clark was not playing in the game due to a persisting groin injury, but jumped up and started clapping for her coach amid the incident.CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COMAfter the game, White suggested that Clark will be paying the fine."I dont know about frustrations boiling as more to just like making a point," White told reporters.

She just got a bonus."During White's first year as head coach, and Clark's second year in the WNBA, the Fever have taken on a seemingly more rebellious tone in team culture.The Fever won the WNBA's Commissioner's Cup, an in-season tournament, with their 74-59 win over the Minnesota Lynx on Tuesday night, and the team celebrated in the locker room with some champagne and vodka seltzers.Fever forward Aaliyah Boston took to Instagram Live to give a behind-the-scenes look at the celebration when Clark, who did not play due to a groin injury, took a shot.WNBA ROOKIE PAIGE BUECKERS SAYS MEDIA 'TRIES TO ISOLATE' IN RESPONSE TO PAST COMMENTS ABOUT BLACK WOMEN"Guys, I just know everybody in the league is sick," Clark is heard saying from out of the shot.The teammates replied with laughter, with Boston adding, "They're p---ed."While celebrating, Clark also voiced an opinion on the tournament and the $500,000 prize for the winning team."You get more (money) for this than you do if youre the (WNBA Finals) champion. It makes no sense. Someone tell [WNBA commissioner] Cathy [Engelbert] to help us out," she said in another video.Meanwhile, Fever newcomer Sophie Cunningham, who has quickly become a fan favorite after starting a fight with Connecticut Sun players in defense of Clark, said "no one likes us" after a recent game against the Dallas Wings."I think so far this season, weve had a lot of distractions. Some injuries. Dont know whos playing. Just a lot of distractions. But I think thats really good for us," she said, via the Indy Star. "Lets go through the adversity early. Lets learn from it. Good news is were not going to peak too early, so I mean, thats a positive. Its not an excuse. Everyones playing a back-to-back. Everyone has this kind of rough schedule. For us, we get another opportunity tomorrow, and weve got to capitalize on it. Dallas is a team thats hungry for a win."Weve talked about this, were circled on everybodys schedule. No one likes us, right? So, everyone in our locker room? Thats the only type of people that we have that we can lean on. Weve got to be better in that area. We have got to stay disciplined, we have to stay focused, we need to get consistent, and weve got to lean on each other. I think that weve kind of wavered a little bit on that. We have our own islands."Follow Fox News Digitalssports coverage on X, and subscribe to the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.

Eight migrants were denied a request by a Massachusetts federal judge on Friday to have their deportation to South Sudan halted.Justice Department lawyers said the men were scheduled to be flown to South Sudan on Friday at 7:00 pm ET after two courts considered their emergency request on July 4, a day when courts would otherwise be closed, Reuters reported.The migrants, who are from Cuba, Laos, Mexico, Burma, Sudan and Vietnam, filed new claims on Thursday after the U.S. Supreme Court clarified that Boston federal Judge Brian Murphy couldn't require the Department of Homeland Security to hold them.Also on Friday, federal Judge Randolph Moss in Washington paused the Trump administration's efforts to deport the eight migrants to South Sudan, the latest case testing the legality of the Trump administration's push to ship illegal immigrants to third countries.JUDGE STRIKES DOWN TRUMP ORDER PREVENTING ASYLUM REQUESTS, PROTECTIONS FOR ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTSMoss had briefly halted the deportation after lawyers for the migrants filed the new claims in his court and sent the case to Boston, where Murphy denied the claim. The eight men argued their deportations to South Sudan would violate the Constitution, which prohibits "cruel and unusual" punishment, Reuters reported. They have been convicted of various crimes, with four of them convicted of murder, the Department of Homeland Security has said.They were detained for six weeks on a military base in Djibouti instead of being brought back to the United States.On Thursday, the migrants filed new claims after the Supreme Court said that a federal judge in Boston could no longer require the Department of Homeland Security to hold them, Reuters reported.TRUMP ADMIN ASK SCOTUS TO AUTHORIZE RAPID MIGRANT DEPORTATIONS TO COUNTRIES OTHER THAN THEIR OWNFox News Digital has reached out to the White House.During Friday's hearing with Moss, a government lawyer argued that court orders halting agreed-upon deportations pose a serious problem for U.S. diplomatic relations and would make foreign countries less likely to accept transfers of migrants in the future.The case is the latest development over the legality of the Trump administration's campaign to deter immigration by shipping migrants to locations other than their countries of origin pursuant to deals with other countries, according to Reuters."It seems to me almost self-evident that the United States government cannot take human beings and send them to circumstances in which their physical well-being is at risk simply either to punish them or send a signal to others," Moss said during the hearing.
