Aztec golden wolf sacrifice yields rich trove in Mexico CityBy David Alire Garcia MEXICO CITY (Reuters) - A sacrificial wolf elaborately adorned with some of the finest Aztec gold ever found and buried more than five centuries ago has come to light in the heart of downtown Mexico City, once home to the Aztec empire's holiest shrines. The quality and number of golden ornaments is highly unusual and includes 22 complete pieces - such as symbol-laden pendants, a nose ring and a chest plate - all made from thin sheets of the precious metal, lead archaeologist Leonardo Lopez told Reuters. Held in a stone box, the cache was discovered in April near the capital city's bustling main square, the Zocalo, behind the colonial-era Roman Catholic cathedral and off the steps of what was once the most important Aztec ceremonial temple, now known as the Templo Mayor.

Hobby Lobby to forfeit ancient Iraqi artifacts in settlement with U.S. DOJ(The 5th July story refiles to reflect that the artifacts were not intended for the Museum of the Bible in paragraphs 1 and 4) By Dan Whitcomb LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Arts and crafts retailer Hobby Lobby has agreed to forfeit thousands of illegally smuggled ancient Middle Eastern artifacts obtained from antiquities dealers, the company and U.S. officials said on Wednesday. The forfeiture will include some 5,500 artifacts purchased by Hobby Lobby Inc that originated from the region of modern-day Iraq and were shipped under false labels, as well as an additional $3 million to settle the civil charges, the Department of Justice said in a statement. "The protection of cultural heritage is a mission that (Homeland Security Investigations) and its partner U.S. Customs and Border Protection take very seriously as we recognize that while some may put a price on these artifacts, the people of Iraq consider them priceless," Angel Melendez, special agent in charge of Homeland Security Investigations in New York, said in the statement.

The campaign is the fourth media blitz by the government this year against Brussels or Soros for their alleged attacks on Hungary's hardline anti-immigration stance.

The most popular Roomba is still on sale, but this hot robot vacuum is even cheaper

The Roomba 650 is one of the most affordable robot vacuum cleaners in the Roomba lineup, so it stands to reason that it's also the most popular. It's packed full of features and yet it costs hundreds less than some of iRobot's premium Roomba vacuums — especially when it's on sale on Amazon, like it is right now. But there's another model from a Roomba rival that's on sale for even less than the 650, and it also happens to be the best-selling model in Amazon's indoor robotic vacuum category right now. It also has a few awesome features that are nowhere to be found on the Roomba. Check out the ECOVACS DEEBOT M80 Pro Robotic Vacuum Cleaner with Mop and Water Tank, you'll be glad you did.

Here are some highlights from the product page:

  • Utilizes various cleaning modes, a 5-stage cleaning system, and optional mopping and drying stages to tackle even the most stubborn dirt.
  • Being equipped with a large capacity dustbin allows DM80 to clean for much longer periods of time. Dust, debris, allergens are filtered through high-efficiency filters.
  • Performs daily cleaning by using the remote to schedule a clean at a specific time.
  • Adapts to individual household environments, and avoids stairs and furniture with advanced sensors. It can climb inclines and crosses doorsills with powerful wheels.
  • Bundles with a limited, 1-year manufacturer's warranty and extra accessory set.

Big pup spooked by extremely tiny kitten while trying to make friends

Big pup spooked by extremely tiny kitten while trying to make friendsContrary to popular belief, cats and dogs can actually be great friends. They don't really have much in common, but hey, opposites attract. That being said, the tricky relationship between this large doggo and this tiny kitten needs some time to develop. Boundaries need to be set, rules need to be followed, and hierarchy needs to be established. Instagram user tipthevelvet posted this video of her new tiny kitten, Oliver, getting acquainted with her Great Dane, Ronan. Oliver quickly shows his new friend who's boss by giving Ronan an itty-bitty boop on the nose. And by the look on Ronan's face, he understands who's in charge here. Getting to know each other #boundaries #whostheboss #thelookofterror #hiseyestho #kitten #greatdane #catvsdog #ronanandoliver @ashley_revis27 This video is represented by UNILAD. For all licensing/usage enquiries, please contact licensing@unilad.co.uk A post shared by Stephanie Duda (@tipthevelvet) on Jul 1, 2017 at 8:17pm PDT Ronan is SHOOK by Oliver's feisty swat, and tries to make himself invisible behind the blinds. He gives the scrappy kitten some serious nervous side-eye before walking away, realizing that they have some progress to make before they become BFFs. We're confident that Oliver and Ronan will warm up to each other soon, though. We bet they'll be cuddling — with no swatting — in no time.  WATCH: Doctor Octopus-esque robotic arm attachments will lend you an extra hand or two
