Does Sunday’s wild win in Pittsburgh tell us more about the Steelers or Ravens when it comes to AFC contenders? Nguyen: This Packers team is better than last year’s edition. A month from now, are we going to be talking about the Dolphins, Colts, both or neither as competing for the seventh seed in the AFC? Pompei: The competition for the last wild-card spot in the AFC could come down to the Dolphins, Colts, Bengals and Broncos. The Colts defense has improved, and on Sunday Richardson executed better than he did prior to his benching.

Steve and Maria Spagnuolo make Chiefs defenders feel like family. “Steve loves the fellas and likes to show them.”They bring Greek food to Chiefs defensive end George Karlaftis, a native of Athens.

☆ Pompeii is limiting its daily visitor numbers
▼ + stars: | 2024-11-11 | by ( Jack Guy | ) edition.cnn.com time to read: +2 min

CNN —Authorities at Pompeii in southern Italy are introducing a daily limit of 20,000 visitors as part of efforts to protect the ancient site. The measure, which will come into force from November 15, will see the introduction of personalized tickets bearing the name of each visitor, according to a statement from the Pompeii archaeological park published Friday. Pompeii has received an increasing number of visitors in recent years. The site has long been a popular tourist attraction, but the sheer weight of numbers has caused increasing problems at the site as visitor numbers rose from under 2.7 million in 2014 to more than 3.9 million by 2019. “Grande Pompei,” as the project is called, is a “parco diffuso” or scattered archaeological park, incorporating the archaeological area of Pompeii itself, as well as villas at nearby Boscoreale, Oplontis (in the modern town of Torre Annunziata) and Stabiae, at modern Castellammare di Stabia.

After winning in Washington, the first game of a daunting second-half schedule, do the Pittsburgh Steelers belong in the Super Bowl conversation? Setting aside how they compare to the rest of the NFL in 2024, how do you feel this year’s edition compares to the Chiefs teams of the past two seasons? Good teams, remember, almost always get fortuitous bounces and kind calls. This Chiefs team is more balanced and more well-rounded. And so, although the delivery may differ, this Chiefs team is just as equipped to make a Super Bowl run as any of the previous iterations.

☆ NFL midseason predictions for every team: Kirk Cousins wins comeback award; NFC East champ is …?

Our NFL writers addressed these topics and more in making one prediction for every team heading into the season’s second half. The fourth-year back is on pace to finish with 1,256 yards, which would be the fourth-highest total in team history. Every other NFL team has put a player in at least one of those categories during that stretch — and most teams have checked both boxes. Minnesota has one of the most productive defenses in the NFL and an offense loaded at the skill positions. And the Eagles have managed to win games despite bad luck and bad decisions.

☆ Walter Payton and Matt Suhey, backfield mates turned brothers, and a bond that transcends time

On the rare occasions when Payton acknowledged Suhey, he called him “short white boy.”Suhey and Payton were Chicago teammates for eight seasons. Payton seemed to know how Suhey would block, and Suhey seemed to understand where Payton would step. “Back-to-back!” Payton told Suhey, locking arms with him, their backs pressed against each other’s. When Payton teased Suhey for going to Penn State, Suhey asked him where Payton’s alma mater, Jackson State, was located. According to Jarrett, Suhey continues to lord over all things sold under the Walter Payton name — and has never asked for anything in return.

The Eagles are healthier at receiver, have a terrific ground game and they’re improving on defense. AdvertisementNguyen: Getting two new coordinators takes some getting used to, but the Eagles look more comfortable both offensively and defensively. Defensively, Vic Fangio’s system is a hard one to learn but the Eagles now look like they’re playing a lot faster. Since the third week of the season, opponents are averaging just 12.8 points per game against Fangio’s defense. Nguyen: Before this week, the Titans were playing like an elite defense but their offense was letting them down.

But what was most impressive about this game was the Packers’ defense. Love has to be better and the offense will have better days, but the Packers defense was lights out. The Lions are the best team in the NFC at the moment, maybe even the best team overall. But the Lions looked like the best team in the division heading into the season, and they looked like the best team in the division on Sunday. He is on a pace to rush for 1,864 yards — his best season by far.

Nguyen: With Aaron Rodgers’ age and their defense, the Jets have a small window to make some noise. In theory, Adams would also add some much-needed explosiveness to a Jets offense that entered this week ranked 29th in the NFL in total yards and 27th in points. The Bills’ defense also suffered losses in free agency, and holes went unfilled even though Buffalo’s top competitors in the AFC include elite offenses in Kansas City, Baltimore and Cincinnati. Watson isn’t just not playing well, he’s playing like one of the worst quarterbacks in the league. Maybe improved offensive production would help ease pressure on the Browns’ defense.

Minnesota entered Sunday ranked third in points allowed and top-10 in both yards per carry and yards per pass attempt.

The Saints, one week after blowing out the lowly Carolina Panthers, did the same in Dallas to the high-flying Cowboys. The Ravens were in control for most of the game and then Davante Adams and Brock Bowers took over. The Ravens aren’t built to win when their defense softens — but that isn’t to say they won’t find ways to play the kind of defense the Ravens are known for. Meanwhile, the Saints’ defense denied the Cowboys on all three trips inside the red zone and recorded two takeaways. He made some strong in-structure throws, including a beauty to Noah Brown in the middle of the field late in the game to win the game.

A vivid blue shrine showcased the owner's deep pockets. Archaeologists believe this room, painted an unusual light blue color, may have been used as a shrine by the house's owners. The owners had it painted blue, which would have been very rare and expensive at the time. "Having a whole room painted in blue would have made a major statement about the wealth of the house owner," Barrett said. A pile of oyster shells was found near other building materials, Barrett said.

The most dangerous volcanic threat in Italy right now is one you’ve probably never heard of: Campi Flegrei, or the Phlegraean Fields. The last major eruption of Campi Flegrei was in 1538, and it created a new mountain in the bay. So far in 2023 Campi Flegrei has recorded more than 3,450 earthquakes, 1,118 of which occurred in August alone. There are two hypotheses as to what could be causing the current increase in seismic activity at Campi Flegrei, according to De Natale. Vesuvius and the Campi Flegrei area.

So with ever more tourists cramming onto the site, the team behind the archaeological park of Pompeii have found a plan B – dispersing visitors around ancient sites that are further afield, with all-in-one tickets and shuttles laid on between the sites. A shuttle service around the sites – the Pompeii Artebus – was piloted in 2021. The ancient city was the most visited heritage site in Italy on the last “Domenica al Museo” – state-run heritage sites have free entry on the first Sunday of the month. Tickets for the ‘scattered’ site will be valid for three days, with free shuttles connecting all the sites. The Villa dei Misteri at Pompeii will also get new lighting which will better replicate the original lighting in the villa.

A fresco in Pompeii revealed a surprising feast: a bready food that looks like a pizza. It may not qualify as pizza as Pompeii didn't have access to tomatoes or mozzarella, researchers said. The food may be a pizza ancestor, which seems to have been covered in fruit, they said.

Pompeii "never ceases to amaze," said Italian culture minister, Gennaro Sangiuliano, in the press release about the fresco.

Meanwhile in Venice, tourists routinely swim in the UNESCO-protected canals, which double as the city’s sewer system. “Tourists don’t know how to relate to the artistic heritage because they have no relation with our history – so they refer to their cultural imagination, and therefore to our cinema. “So many tourists have said to me over the years, ‘In Italy there are no rules.’ But they are mistaken.

Uimitoarea descoperire a fost făcută în timpul săpăturilor care au loc în subsolul cinematografului Astra, aflat în curs de renovare, după ce a stat în paragină peste 20 de ani. Cu „zidurile sale cu fresce magnifice”, clădirea, care datează din secolul al II-lea, „evocă un Pompei în miniatură”. Fabuloasa descoperire și dovezile unui incendiu au făcut să fie comparată cu Pompeiul antic, care a fost distrus de erupția Muntelui Vezuviu în anul 79 d.Hr. „Un dezastru, în acest caz un incendiu, a provocat sfârșitul complexului, lăsând urme”, potrivit arheologilor.

În plus, oamenii de ştiinţă au descoperit în spaţiile din structura mesei resturi alimentare, care ar putea oferi informaţii valoroase asupra obiceiurilor gastronomice din Pompei, din perioada erupţiei Vezuvului, în 79 e.n, citează Agerpres. Un fragment de os de raţă, dar şi resturi de porc, de capră, peşte şi melci au fost găsite în vasele de teracotă. Astfel de thermopolium erau foarte frecvente şi populare în Roma Antică. Pompei, îngropat în urma erupţiei Vezuviului, este al doilea cel mai vizitat sit arheologic din Italia după Colosseum din Roma. Doar o treime din sit, care se extinde în prezent pe 44 de hectare, nu departe de Napoli, a fost dezgropat de arheologi.

Rămășițele a două victime ale erupției muntelui Vezuviu din urmă cu aproape 2.000 de ani au fost dezgropate într-o vilă aflată la marginea orașului Pompei, au declarat recent oficialii parcului arheologic, citați de Science Alert. „Au fost găsite două schelete de indivizi prinși în furia erupției”, au declarat într-un comunicat oficialii sitului de lângă Napoli. Arheologii au ajuns la această concluzie pe baza vestigiilor vestimentare și a aspectului lor fizic. Un parc arheologic care surprinde viața în Imperiul RomanOrașul ruinat Pompeii a fost acoperit în cenușă după erupția Muntelui Vezuviu din anul 79 al erei noastre. Cele două cadavre au fost găsite într-o cameră laterală a „criptoporticului”, un coridor de sub vilă, unde ar fi încercat să se adăpostească.
