The apparent island, which measures around 100 feet by 200 feet, was discovered in 2021 off the northern coast of Greenland by an expedition involving researchers from Swiss, Danish and Greenlandic institutions. At the time, they named it “Qeqertaq Avannarleq,” which is Greenlandic for “the northernmost island.” “[The island] was small and gravelly, and it was declared a contender for the title of the most northerly known land mass in the world,” Kevin Hamilton, a professor of atmospheric sciences at the University of Hawaii, wrote for The Conversation....

Giambi, 43, recently was at Double-A Akron for a minor league injury rehabilitation assignment. He said he's ready to play, but the Indians will wait until after the weekend, when they open a four-game series against the Kansas City Royals. Giambi took batting practice before Friday's series opener against Toronto. He said the time in the minors was good for his swing and a reminder of his path to the big leagues....

NOTHING ABOUT Gianni Versace seemed right in the last few years. His collections - pencil skirts, fitted jackets - had become dangerously demure for the man who embodied frock-and-roll fashion. The designer himself didn’t look healthy, either. He never seemed to rebound from a rare cancer in his left ear, which doctors treated in 1993. Some fashion vultures speculated that he had AIDS. Versace’s billion-dollar company, which was expected to go public this year, had been put on an austerity budget....

The two received first team votes on all 100 ballots to finish with 500 points each. Antetokounmpo and Harden are followed closely by Warriors guard Stephen Curry with 482 points, including 91 first team votes. Thunder forward Paul George (433 points; 71 first-team votes) and Nuggets center Nikola Jokić (411; 59) round out the roster. Each first-team vote is worth five points, while second team votes are worth three and third team votes are worth one....

One tweet said, “I’m going to the warriors” but the rest appear to be crude. Antetokounmpo addressed the issue Thursday night on social media. He wrote that he was “disappointed and disgusted that somebody would say the terrible things that were said!” The official Bucks Twitter account confirmed the hacking earlier Thursday and said an investigation is underway. Antetokounmpo’s brother Kostas, a forward on the Lakers, said on Twitter that the Greek Freak’s Twitter, phone, email and bank accounts were also hacked....

The City of Delray Beach shared a video that featured a slideshow of photos of the incident. According to the video caption, a contracted nuisance alligator trapper with the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) was called to help remove the alligator, which was transferred to a farm. Tammy Sapp, a spokesperson with FWC told Newsweek in an email the agency receives calls about nuisance alligators throughout the year because alligators are active and visible whenever the weather is warm....

The space rock—dubbed 163373 (2002 PZ39)—is thought to measure between around 1,400 and 3,200 feet in diameter based on the object’s magnitude, data from the space agency’s Center for Near Earth Object Studies (CNEOS) indicates. At the upper range, this would mean the asteroid would stand higher than the Burj Khalifa skyscraper in Dubai, the tallest structure on Earth. 2002 PZ39 will make its close approach at 11:05 a.m. Universal Time (6:05 a....

Footage published on the Citizen app shows the large vehicle sunken below ground level on East 2nd Street, near Avenue A, at around 2am on Sunday morning. In the footage we see the car at an almost 45 degree angle with its back-end pointing to the sky, as the New York City Fire Department investigates the bizarre scene. It’s not yet known what caused this extreme concrete cavity. Fortunately, no one was in the parked car during the incident....

Making just his second start of the spring after signing a six-year, $130 million contract this offseason, Cueto got beaned on a comebacker off the bat of Billy Burns. Cueto seemed unfazed and even laughed off the situation while trainers visited the mound. He was allowed to remain in the game and gave up three runs on five hits with a pair of strikeouts.

The veteran Giants wide receiver was just happy to be back on the field so he could make his first catch since tearing the patellar tendon in his right knee early in the 2014 season. FANTASY: 2016 wide receiver rankings | Top 200 rankings “It felt like old times,” Cruz said after Saturday’s 21-20 preseason win over the Jets, via the New York Post. “I caught the ball in the flat and tried to make something happen, but I got to feel a little bit of contact, which was a great feeling....

The Giants won their fifth consecutive game Sunday with a 22-16 comeback victory over visiting Chicago. At 7-3, they are sitting pretty for a playoff berth with the top wild-card spot. It might be easy to not believe in Big Blue, given every victory has come in a one-possession game. They’ve been sloppy and one-dimensional offensively, and they’ve been inconsistent defensively. Their combined margin of victory is 24. Their combined margin of defeat is 23....

When Daniel Jones was drafted No. 6 overall in 2019, eyebrows were raised, glasses were dramatically removed, laughs were had. While analysts considered Jones a late first- or second-round prospect, the Giants took a very early chance on a kid who looked like he was auditioning for the role of a Manning brother in a direct-to-streaming biopic. But the jokes quickly subsided when Jones looked a lot better than a lot of people expected him to look in the 2019 season, throwing for 24 touchdowns and 3,027 yards in 13 games (12 starts) for “Big Blue,” and showing flashes that made him look like an upper-ceiling franchise passer....

FOLLOW LIVE: Updates, highlights from Giants vs. Vikings wild-card game For starters, the wild-card duel features two of the best young players in the game: New York tailback Saquon Barkley and Minnesota wideout Justin Jefferson. There aren’t many players like Barkley and Jefferson. But they aren’t the only talents slated to take the field on Sunday. Between Daniel Jones, Kirk Cousins, Dalvin Cook, Dexter Lawrence and others, the stars will be out in full force come Wild Card weekend....

The Steller’s sea eagle (Haliaeetus pelagicus) was spotted along the Taunton River in Massachusetts, according to the Massachusetts Division of Fisheries and Wildlife. One of the largest raptors in the world and the largest sea eagle, its wingspan reaches about 6.6 feet and it can weigh up to 20 pounds. Its presence was even more captivating considering that its habitat is about 5,000 miles away. It is normally found in Korea, Japan and Russia’s Far East, specifically the Kamchatka Peninsula....

Griezmann shows off NBA impressions Despite wearing the captain’s armband and becoming United’s all-time leading goalscorer, Rooney seems poised to leave Old Trafford after struggling to feature on a regular basis in 2016-17. Rooney only started 15 Premier League matches and scored five goals last term — a situation linking the 31-year-old with moves to Everton and the Chinese Super League — but Giggs believes his former team-mate could stay in Manchester....

United asserted itself over Norwich after a tedious start, with Wayne Rooney scoring twice — the first from the penalty spot — and Juan Mata also netting a brace after coming off the bench to complete a 4-0 win in the English Premier League. "I should retire now, a 100 percent record," Giggs quipped. The 40-year-old midfielder, who dropped himself from the match-day squad, is likely to have just three more games as player-manager, with United looking to appoint a more experienced successor to Moyes....

Pogba, 24, has been one of Mourinho’s star players since his arrival from Juventus as United currently sit second in the Premier League, 13 points behind leaders Manchester City. Challenging for the league title may be beyond the Red Devils this term, but Giggs is confident they can have put together a stronger 2018-19 campaign if Mourinho uses his most expensive star properly. “Manchester United’s attacking players are, without a shadow of a doubt, capable of winning the Premier League next season,” the United legend and recently appointed Wales manager told Sky Sports....

After scoring 11 goals in his debut campaign in Mexico, the 2015 Apertura, and winning the Golden Boot with 13 in the spring’s Clausura, the 30-year-old had just five goals entering the Liguilla and didn’t even lead Tigres in scoring. Not since September had Gignac scored, and while he was instrumental in a 2-2 draw with Pumas in the first leg of the quarterfinal round, the goals were still lacking from the Frenchman....

How, exactly, did reigning MVP Sebastian Giovinco miss out on that award’s shortlist this time around? Is Defender of the Year winner Matt Hedges the true anchor of FC Dallas’ back line, or should it be Walker Zimmerman collecting the accolades? Which striker reigned over New York: the Red Bulls’ Bradley Wright-Phillips or NYCFC’s David Villa? In the spirit of such end-of-year discussions, I’ve compiled a ranking of the top 10 players at all 11 positions on the field from the 2016 MLS regular season....
