First ever black hole image revealed

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Scientists have released the first ever image of a black hole, revealing the distant object in stunning detail.

The groundbreaking discovery was made by the Event Horizon Telescope, an international project involving telescopes across the globe that describes itself as a "virtual Earth-sized telescope." Telescopes in Hawaii, Arizona, Chile, Mexico, Spain and the South Pole participated in the ambitious research project.

The black hole was spotted in a galaxy called M87 that is 55 million light years away. A light year, which measures distance in space, equals 6 trillion miles.
THE SUN IS SPITTING OUT 'LAVA LAMP BLOBS' 500 TIMES THE SIZE OF EARTH
"We're delighted to report to you today that we have seen what we thought was unseeable," explained Dr. Shep Doeleman, director of the Event Horizon Telescope, during a press conference at the National Science Foundation Wednesday. "We have taken advantage of a cosmic opportunity."

"This was a Herculean task," explained National Science Foundation Director Dr. France Cordova, during the press conference, noting that the Event Horizon Telescope's findings transform and enhance our understanding of Black Holes.

"Black holes are extremely dense pockets of matter, objects of such incredible mass and miniscule volume that they drastically warp the fabric of space-time," explains the National Science Foundation, on its website. "Anything that passes too close, from a wandering star to a photon of light, gets captured. Most black holes are the condensed remnants of a massive star, the collapsed core that remains following an explosive supernova."

Ever wanted to live in Italy, but the price of living scares you more than the Mafia? Well, now you can get a house for $1!

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
What's stopping you from buying one of those homes that (CNN) - Italy keeps selling for less than the price of an espresso?

Maybe it's the fear of buying something sight-unseen, or perhaps it's the anxiety over bureaucratic red tape and labyrinthine regulations?

Well, you might just have run out of excuses.

Two Italian destinations, hoping to revive declining communities by luring new residents with homes priced at a little over a dollar, have launched websites that promise to match buyers with their dream property, relatively fuss-free.

So if you spot a photo of a house you like online, you can apply for one even before jumping on a plane.

"I've created a special task force of young volunteers who assist buyers, liaising with convenient construction firms for the restyle," says Paolo Caruso, mayor of Zungoli, one of the villages offering bargain-rate houses.

"Transparency is key but people must really come see for themselves the beauty of the place, taste the great food and breathe the fresh healthy air."

Zungoli is a tiny rural village, shaped like a snail, in the Campania region near Naples and the Amalfi Coast.

Set atop a sandstone hill, it's a maze of caves and zig-zag, circular alleys connected by huge, uneven grass-covered cobblestone steps that wind up to a stunning fortress.

Named one of Italy's Most Beautiful Villages in 2015 in a national award, it straddles the Apennine Mountains, equidistant from the Adriatic and Tyrrhenian coasts.

Medieval bridges lead to a cluster of blue, pink, green and yellow pastel-colored farm dwellings and dome-shaped aristocratic mansions where just 1,000 people live. Bright flowers adorn street corners and grapevines grow over arches and old olive mills.

Inside multi-layered Byzantine caves once used as storage rooms during the Crusades, teardrop-shaped Caciocavallo cheeses are now hung to season.

Sounds good? Well here's how you get a slice of the action... and maybe some of that cheese.

Step : Head to Zungoli's official website -- www.comunezungoli.it. On the left column, there's a link titled "Case in vendita a €1."

You might need Google Translate to help you out at this point, or some rudimentary knowledge of Italian (which would be no bad thing anyway if you're thinking of living there.)

Step If your plan is approved, Caruso will send you a contract and then it's up to you to fly over to Italy and close the deal.

The catch: As with all these cheap home deals, buyers must pay a €2,000 security deposit and commit to refurbishing the property.

Work needs to start within a few months. Once it's complete and the purchase deed is made, the deposit is refunded.

There are tax deductions of up to 85% for any restyling works.

Zungoli has a unique setting and a lot to offer -- guided trekking and cycling tours regularly explore the wild and pristine landscape.

Once plagued by bandits and criss-crossed by pilgrimage routes and shepherd trails, known as tratturi, the terrain is dotted with Roman coins often filled with ancient coins.

For 6,000 years, nomadic shepherds led their herds across its pastures into neighboring Puglia, a tradition now celebrated in festivals and in rustic local dishes like chiapparelle e bietole -- ravioli stuffed with chard.

But it's not stuck in the past.

"We want to make things easy for new buyers", says Caruso. "My town has upgraded infrastructure, public LED lights and great Wi-Fi. Piazzas and pavements have just been revamped. Life quality is important."

If even that process sounds too complicated, the larger Italian town of Mussomeli, in Sicily, has made it even easier, creating a new multilingual real estate agency to handle its €1 houses deals.

Photos of dwellings can be checked via the website www.case1euro.it, which features an interactive map that has detailed information on each building -- and it's all in English.

Many of the abandoned stone farm dwellings are in good shape and need only minimal work.

"Original owners calls us each day to dispose of their old houses," says heritage councillor Toti Nigrelli. "There are 100 on sale now and potentially another 400 are suitable.

"This project is my life mission but had I dealt with it on my own, I would have gone nuts."

Honeysuckle and eucalyptus are found across this sweet patch of land. Mussomeli's name stems from the latin Mons Melis, aka the "Hill of Honey," and local delicacies include honey-coated guastedde buns and cuddureddi fried milk-soaked doughnuts.

The fertile green farmland is dotted with old sulfur mines, sanctuaries, Roman necropolises and traces of primitive settlements.

The town, rising on a 700-meter high hill, has views of the Etna volcano and the Valley of Temples. A local weather phenomenon called the "Sea of Clouds" can be seen from the top.

"Looking down you see the valley covered in a dense blanket of clouds as if the town were suspended mid-air. We want customers to experience all this," says Nigrelli.

The historic center is divided into districts all of which, he swears, have different climatic features depending on which side of the hill you stand.

Sounds like the ideal place?

Interested buyers will be given a guided tour of the town, visiting top sites and tasting the local cuisine. The agency's staff will assist every step of the way.

The catch: "There's a €400 fee for such tailored services to be paid only at the end if a €1 house is actually purchased," says Nigrelli.

Anyone taking the private tour will see Mussomeli's panoramic piazzas, lavish gold-colored Baroque buildings and winding alleys leading to one of Italy's most breathtaking fortresses, dubbed the Enchanted Castle.

Clinging like a spider on a pointed rock with steep, twisting staircases, the castle is said to conceal Saracen treasure and is haunted by the ghost of a murdered soldier.

It's not the only eerie presence.

The phantoms of three girls, who were locked up by their jealous and tyrannical father and starved to death, have been heard crying at night. According to storytellers, they were found dead having chewed their own shoes for sustenance.

Actors dressed in medieval clothes often animate the castle while religious parades create a mystical vibe.

One festival, Batticchié, sees folks re-enact Sicilian daily life from the 1940s while enjoying local dishes such as 'mbriulate -- a bread bun stuffed with olives, onions and pork.

Delicious. And not just the food.

MIAMI - Dwyane Wade scored 30 points in the tribute-filled final home game of his career, and the Miami Heat defeated the Philadelphia 76ers 122-99 on Tuesday night.

Bam Adebayo scored 19, Justise Winslow scored 16 and Hassan Whiteside added 15 for the Heat, who were eliminated from playoff contention when Detroit beat Memphis - a result that went final during the third quarter of the Miami-Philly game.

Wade's career will end Wednesday in Brooklyn, when Miami plays its regular-season finale. He checked out for the last time with 1:02 left, embracing teammates and his son Zaire - who was on the Heat bench.

Greg Monroe scored 18 points and Ben Simmons scored 16 for Philadelphia, which entered Tuesday already locked into the No. 3 seed for the Eastern Conference playoffs and rested Joel Embiid and J.J. Redick. Simmons played only 21 minutes, Tobias Harris shot 3 for 16 in 20 minutes and Jimmy Butler scored only four points in 16 minutes.

Mavericks 120, Suns 109

DALLAS - Dirk Nowitzki scored a season-high 30 points and Dallas celebrated the final home game of the 40-year-old's record 21st season with the same franchise. After the game, Nowitzki announced his retirement.

The 14-time All-Star had the first eight Dallas shots and scored his team's first 10 points in the first three minutes and passed his previous season high of 21 on a 3-pointer early in the third quarter.

Dallas' season finale, and possibly the career-ender for Nowitzki, is Wednesday night in San Antonio.

Jamal Crawford scored 51 points, one off his career high, in the season finale for the Suns (19-63). Phoenix had by far the worst record in the Western Conference in its fourth straight season with at least 58 losses.

Luca Doncic had his eighth triple-double with 21 points, 16 rebounds and 11 assists.

Trail Blazers 104, Lakers 101

LOS ANGELES - Maurice Harkless hit a corner 3-pointer at the buzzer, and Portland secured home-court advantage in the first round of the playoffs with a win over Los Angeles, a few hours after Magic Johnson abruptly resigned as the Lakers' president of basketball operations.

Johnson shocked the Lakers with his announcement about 90 minutes before tipoff of the last game in the Lakers' sixth consecutive losing season. The Hall of Fame guard had been in charge of the Lakers for just 26 months, and his departure throws the 16-time NBA champion franchise's offseason into turmoil even before it began.

Harkless scored 26 points and Enes Kanter had 22 points and 16 rebounds while the Blazers rallied in the fourth quarter to claim their 52nd win of the season. Damian Lillard had 20 points and eight assists while the Blazers wrapped up home court for their first-round series against the Utah Jazz.

Portland has won 13 of 16 in its surge to a sixth consecutive playoff berth.

Kentavious Caldwell-Pope scored 32 points and Mike Muscala added 16 for the Lakers, who have missed the playoffs in a franchise-record six consecutive seasons.

Warriors 112, Pelicans 103

NEW ORLEANS - DeMarcus Cousins had 21 points and 12 rebounds, and Golden State beat New Orleans in a game in which Warriors guard Stephen Curry left with a mild foot sprain.

The Warriors announced that Curry, who played the first nine minutes of the game, was held out the rest of the night as a precaution.

The game also likely marked the end of the Anthony Davis era in New Orleans. The disgruntled All-Star missed his seventh straight game with what the team has officially listed as back spasms.

Damion Lee matched his career high with 20 points for Golden State. Former Pelican Quinn Cook scored 19 points.

Christian Wood had 26 points and 12 rebounds for the Pelicans, who lost 13 of their last 16 games. Jahlil Okafor scored 30 points and Ian Clark 20 for New Orleans.

Pistons 100, Grizzlies 93

DETROIT - Andre Drummond had 20 points and 17 rebounds and Ish Smith matched a season high with 22 points, helping Detroit rally from a 22-point deficit.

Detroit can clinch a postseason bid by closing the regular season with a win Wednesday night at New York.

Detroit star Blake Griffin was limited to five points and two rebounds in 18-plus minutes, barely playing in the second half because of his injured left knee. Luke Kennard scored 15 points off the bench and Reggie Jackson had 12 points before going to the bench as Smith flourished in the final quarter.

Delon Wright and Bruno Caboclo each scored 15 points for the Grizzlies, who used just four reserves with banged-up players such as Mike Conley, Joakim Noah and rookie Jaren Jackson out with injuries.

Jazz 118, Nuggets 108

SALT LAKE CITY - Donovan Mitchell matched his career high with 46 points as Utah topped Denver.

Rudy Gobert had 20 points and 10 rebounds, Derrick Favors scored 16 points and Joe Ingles added 10 points and 13 assists as Utah won its last eight regular-season home games.

Malik Beasley scored 25 points to lead the Nuggets. Monte Morris added a season-high 22 points and Jamal Murray had 22. Gary Harris scored 15 points for Denver, which lost its second straight.

The Nuggets maintained a half-game lead over Houston Rockets, who lost 112-111 to Oklahoma City, in the race for the No. 2 seed in the Western Conference. Denver can secure the No. 2 spot with a win over Minnesota on Wednesday.

Utah will face Portland in the first round of the playoffs. The Trail Blazers locked up home-court advantage in the first round with a 104-101 win over the Lakers.

Thunder 112, Rockets 111

OKLAHOMA CITY - Paul George hit the game-winning 3-pointer with 1.8 seconds left, and Oklahoma City rallied from 14 points down in the fourth quarter to beat Houston.

Russell Westbrook had 29 points, 12 rebounds and 10 assists for his 33rd triple-double of the season and George added 27 points for the Thunder, who won their fourth straight.

Oklahoma City moved into sixth place in the Western Conference standings with one game remaining.

James Harden scored 39 points and Chris Paul added 24 for the Rockets, who slipped into the third spot in the conference standings.

Raptors 120, Timberwolves 100

MINNEAPOLIS - Kawhi Leonard scored 20 points and Toronto closed its regular season with a win over Minnesota.

Fred VanVleet scored 16 points, and Chris Boucher had a career-high 15 points and 13 rebounds off the bench for the Raptors, who finished the regular season at 58-24.

Andrew Wiggins and Gorgui Dieng each scored 16 points for the Timberwolves, who played without All-Star center Karl-Anthony Towns.

Knicks 96, Bulls 86

CHICAGO - Dennis Smith Jr. scored 25 points, Mitchell Robinson added eight points and 17 rebounds and New York escaped the possibility of finishing with its worst-ever record by winning back-to-back games for the first time since February.

With one game remaining, the Knicks (17-64) can only tie for the worst season in franchise history. A loss to the Detroit Pistons, who are seeking to lock up a playoff spot, would give New York a record matching only its ugly 2014-15 campaign.

Kevin Knox added 17 points and 10 rebounds and Damyean Dotson finished with 12.

Ryan Arcidiacono led the Bulls (22-59) with 14 points and Shaquille Harrison added 13.

Hornets 124, Cavaliers 97

CLEVELAND - Kemba Walker scored 23 points and Charlotte kept its late-season playoff push going with a win over Cleveland.

The Hornets (39-42) had to win to have any chance of beating out Detroit and Miami for the No. 8 spot in the Eastern Conference. Charlotte did its part and must now beat Orlando at home on Wednesday and hope the Pistons (39-42) lose in New York to clinch its first playoff berth in three years.

Jeremy Lamb added 23 points and Miles Bridges and Dwayne Bacon scored 18 apiece as the Hornets won their fourth straight.

Rookie Collin Sexton scored 18 points and had a season-high 10 assists for the Cavs. He also joined Larry Bird (1979-80) and Stephen Curry (2009-10) as the only rookies in league history to average at least 16 points while making over 40% of their 3-pointers and 80% of their free throws.

The Cavs dropped their 10th in a row to finish 19-63.

Celtics 116, Wizards 110

WASHINGTON - Terry Rozier scored 21 points and was one of five Boston players to score in double figures in a meaningless game for both teams.

Brad Wanamaker and Semi Ojeleye each scored 17, Jaylen Brown added 15 and Guerschon Yabusele finished with 13 for the Celtics, already were assured of finishing as the No. 4 team in the Eastern Conference and facing the No. 5-seeded Indiana Pacers in the first round of the playoffs.

Bradley Beal became the first player in Washington Wizards franchise history to average at least 25 points, five rebounds and five assists for a season. Beal, a two-time All-Star, finished with 16 points, five rebounds and four assists - all before halftime.

Eliminated a while ago and bound for the draft lottery, the Wizards wound up 32-50, their most losses since going 29-53 in 2012-13.

Man dies after being 'covered in bees' while removing hive from backyard: Authorities

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
An Arizona man has died after he attempted to remove a beehive from his backyard on his own, authorities said.

The Yuma County Sheriff's Office was called to the man's home on Sunday evening after he had been stung multiple times, according to a press release. The man, identified as 51-year-old Epigmenio Gonzalez, was "covered with bees" in his front yard when deputies arrived, authorities said.

First responders then sprayed Gonzalez with water to allow medics to take him to the hospital. He later died at the Yuma Regional Medical Center, according to the sheriff's office. It is unclear how many times he was stung.

Deputies later learned that Gonzalez had tried to remove the hive from a couch behind his home before the agitated bees attacked.

A female at the home also was stung multiple times and was hospitalized, authorities said. Several deputies and other first responders were stung as well but did not require medical attention.

Additional details were not immediately available.

A world-spanning network of telescopes called the Event Horizon Telescope captured the first picture of a black hole. The image aligns with expectations of what a black hole should look like based on Einstein’s general theory of relativity, which predicts how spacetime is warped by the extreme mass of a black hole.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
This is what a black hole looks like.

A world-spanning network of telescopes called the Event Horizon Telescope zoomed in on the supermassive monster in the galaxy M87 to create this first-ever picture of a black hole.

"We have seen what we thought was unseeable. We have seen and taken a picture of a black hole," Sheperd Doeleman, EHT Director and astrophysicist at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics in Cambridge, Mass., said April 10 in Washington, D.C., at one of seven concurrent news conferences. The results were also published in six papers in the Astrophysical Journal Letters.

"We've been studying black holes so long, sometimes it's easy to forget that none of us have actually seen one," France Córdova, director of the National Science Foundation, said in the Washington, D.C., news conference. Seeing one "is a Herculean task," she said.

More on black holes

That's because black holes are notoriously hard to see. Their gravity is so extreme that nothing, not even light, can escape across the boundary at a black hole's edge, known as the event horizon. But some black holes, especially supermassive ones dwelling in galaxies' centers, stand out by voraciously accreting bright disks of gas and other material. The EHT image reveals the shadow of M87's black hole on its accretion disk. Appearing as a fuzzy, asymmetrical ring, it unveils for the first time a dark abyss of one of the universe's most mysterious objects.

"It's been such a buildup," Doeleman said. "It was just astonishment and wonder... to know that you've uncovered a part of the universe that was off limits to us."

The much-anticipated big reveal of the image "lives up to the hype, that's for sure," says Yale University astrophysicist Priyamvada Natarajan, who is not on the EHT team. "It really brings home how fortunate we are as a species at this particular time, with the capacity of the human mind to comprehend the universe, to have built all the science and technology to make it happen." (SN Online: 4/10/19)

The image aligns with expectations of what a black hole should look like based on Einstein's general theory of relativity, which predicts how spacetime is warped by the extreme mass of a black hole. The picture is "one more strong piece of evidence supporting the existence of black holes. And that, of course, helps verify general relativity," says physicist Clifford Will of the University of Florida in Gainesville who is not on the EHT team. "Being able to actually see this shadow and to detect it is a tremendous first step."

Earlier studies have tested general relativity by looking at the motions of stars ( SN: 8/18/18, p. 12) or gas clouds ( SN: 11/24/18, p. 16) near a black hole, but never at its edge. "It's as good as it gets," Will says. Tiptoe any closer and you'd be inside the black hole - unable to report back on the results of any experiments.

Chris Mihos/Case Western Reserve Univ.,ESO

"Black hole environments are a likely place where general relativity would break down," says EHT team member Feryal Özel, an astrophysicist at the University of Arizona in Tucson. So testing general relativity in such extreme conditions could reveal deviations from Einstein's predictions.

Just because this first image upholds general relativity "doesn't mean general relativity is completely fine," she says. Many physicists think that general relativity won't be the last word on gravity because it's incompatible with another essential physics theory, quantum mechanics, which describes physics on very small scales.

The image also provides a new measurement of the black hole's size and heft. "Our mass determination by just directly looking at the shadow has helped resolve a longstanding controversy," Sera Markoff, a theoretical astrophysicist at the University of Amsterdam, said in the Washington, D.C., news conference. Estimates made using different techniques have ranged between 3.5 billion and 7.22 billion times the mass of the sun. But the new EHT measurements show that its mass is about 6.5 billion solar masses.

The team has also determined the behemoth's size - its diameter stretches 38 billion kilometers - and that the black hole spins clockwise. "M87 is a monster even by supermassive black hole standards," Markoff said.

EHT trained its sights on both M87's black hole and Sagittarius A*, the supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way. But, it turns out, it was easier to image M87's monster. That black hole is 55 million light-years from Earth in the constellation Virgo, about 2,000 times as far as Sgr A*. But it's also about 1,000 times as massive as the Milky Way's giant, which weighs the equivalent of roughly 4 million suns. That extra heft nearly balances out M87's distance. "The size in the sky is pretty darn similar," says EHT team member Feryal Özel.

The first real picture of the supermassive black hole at the center of galaxy M87. How? We explain.

Due to its gravitational oomph, gases swirling around M87's black hole move and vary in brightness more slowly than they do around the Milky Way's. "During a single observation, Sgr A* doesn't sit still, whereas M87 does," says Özel, an astrophysicist at the University of Arizona in Tucson. "Just based on this 'Does the black hole sit still and pose for me?' point of view, we knew M87 would cooperate more."

After more data analysis, the team hopes to solve some long-standing mysteries about black holes, such as how M87's behemoth spews a bright jet of charged particles thousands of light-years into space.

This first image is like the "shot heard round the world" that kicked off the American Revolutionary War, says Harvard University astrophysicist Avi Loeb who isn't on the EHT team. "It's very significant; it gives a glimpse of what the future might hold, but it doesn't give us all the information that we want."

Hopes are still high for a much-anticipated glimpse of Sgr A*. The EHT team was able to collect some data on the Milky Way's behemoth and are continuing to analyze that data, in the hopes of adding its image to the new black hole portrait gallery.

Since the appearance of that black hole changes so quickly, the team is having to develop new techniques to analyze the data. "We're very excited to work on Sgr A*," Daniel Marrone, an astrophysicist at the University of Arizona in Tucson, said in the Washington, D.C., news conference. "We're doing that shortly. We're not promising anything but we hope to get that very soon."

Studying such different environments could reveal more details of how black holes behave, Loeb says. "The Milky Way is a very different galaxy from M87."

Jordy Davelaar et al./Radboud University, BlackHoleCam

The next look at the M87 and Milky Way behemoths will have to wait.

Scientists got a lucky stretch of good weather at all eight sites that made up the Event Horizon Telescope in 2017. Then bad weather in 2018 and technical difficulties, which cancelled the 2019 observing run, stymied the team.

The good news is that by 2020, there will be more observatories to work with. The Greenland Telescope joined the consortium in 2018, and the Kitt Peak National Observatory outside Tucson, Ariz., and the NOrthern Extended Millimeter Array (NOEMA) in the French Alps will join EHT in 2020.

Adding more telescopes could allow the team to extend the image, to better capture the jets that spew from the black hole. The researchers also plan to make observations using light of slightly higher frequency, which can further sharpen the image. And even bigger plans are on the horizon: "World domination is not enough for us; we also want to go to space," Doeleman said.

These extra eyes may be just what's needed to bring black holes into even greater focus.

Democrat Ilhan Omar facing backlash after offensive comment concerning 9/11

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Minnesota Democrat Ilhan Omar is facing backlash after her speech at a Muslim rights group's event in which she described the September 11, 2001 terror attacks as "some people did something."

Omar spoke at a Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) fundraiser last month, where she called upon other Muslim Americans to "make people uncomfortable" with their activism and presence in the society and criticized the Jewish state.
REP. ILHAN OMAR PROBED FOR ALLEGEDLY SPENDING $6,000 OF CAMPAIGN FUNDS ON DIVORCE ATTORNEY, PERSONAL TRAVEL
But another part of the speech surfaced on social media earlier this week, in which Omar described the terror attacks perpetrated by al Qaeda.

"CAIR was founded after 9/11 because they recognized that some people did something, and that all of us were starting to lose access to our civil liberties," Omar said at the event.

The comments from the Minnesota freshman Democrat, still reeling from a number of anti-Semitic controversies, prompted Texas Rep. Dan Crenshaw to slam Omar for her description of the terror attacks.

"First Member of Congress to ever describe terrorists who killed thousands of Americans on 9/11 as 'some people who did something,'" Crenshaw wrote in a tweet. "Unbelievable."

The group has been infamously listed as an unindicted co-conspirator in funding of Hamas, stemming from the case against the Holy Land Foundation for Relief and Development which led to millions of charitable dollars getting funneled to the Palestinian terrorist organization.

Omar's speech at CAIR in Southern California drew hundreds of protesters waving Israeli flags and denouncing the congresswoman's comments about Israel that were perceived as anti-Semitic.

She first came under fire for tweeting in 2012 that "Israel has hypnotized the world, may Allah awaken the people and help them see the evil doings of Israel."

She then drew bipartisan uproar in February after she suggested politicians in the U.S. were bought by AIPAC, a non-partisan organization that seeks to foster the relationship between the U.S. and Israel.

Omar then reignited the controversy, saying groups supportive of Israel were pushing members of Congress to have "allegiance to a foreign country," echoing the anti-Semitic trope of dual loyalty.

Georgia Democratic Rep. Lucy McBath was under allegations that she does not live in Georgia. The GOP was able to get her to accept a gift basket and sign it sent to her real address, in Tennessee.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Georgia Democratic Rep. Lucy McBath was the target of some creative trolling by the Republican Party over her widely disputed claim that she actually lives in Georgia, after receiving and signing for a gift basket the GOP sent to her address -- in Tennessee.

McBath, a racial justice activist who defeated Republican incumbent Karen Handel in November, has been dogged with questions since the election campaign on whether she actually lives in the state she now represents.
IN GEORGIA HOUSE RACE, FEMALE OPPONENTS TURN PERSONAL TRAGEDY INTO POLITICAL DRIVE
The state's Cobb County Tax Commissioner's Office, which refrained from issuing a decision during the election due to appeals, confirmed last month that McBath didn't meet the requirements to call her Cobb County home her primary residence for the three tax years leading up to the election, meaning she was a Tennessee resident when she was elected to Congress.

To point out McBath's deep Tennessean roots, the National Republican Congressional Committee sent a goody bag containing coffee infused with Jack Daniel's Tennessee Whiskey, Memphis-style BBQ sauce and a hat of the Tennessee Volunteers to her Rockford, Tenn., home

The lawmaker accepted the gift on Friday at 10:45 a.m. and signed for it. Fox News obtained a copy of the signature.

DEM STACEY ABRAMS STILL NOT CONCEDING DEFEAT, CLAIMS GOP STOLE GEORGIA ELECTION
"We'll say it again for the folks in the back: Lucy McBath is a resident of Tennessee, not Georgia. Instead of going to Georgia to meet and help her constituents, Lucy McBath jetted out of DC to her real home in Tennessee," NRCC spokeswoman Camille Gallo said.

McBath's office did not respond to Fox News' repeated requests for comment.

The congresswoman disputed previous reports that she's not a resident of Georgia, insisting that she only "briefly" lived in Tennessee or that she "recently" moved to Georgia.

Cobb County permits some residents to decrease their property tax liability through a homestead exemption to residents, an exemption McBath's husband used since 2000.

Yet according to documents reviewed by AllOnGeorgia.com, her husband has been ordered to pay back taxes for the last three years as the exemption was revoked for having vehicle registrations, voter registrations and driver's license applications in other states.

First ever black hole image revealed

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Scientists have released the first ever image of a black hole, revealing the distant object in stunning detail.

The groundbreaking discovery was made by the Event Horizon Telescope, an international project involving telescopes across the globe that describes itself as a "virtual Earth-sized telescope." Telescopes in Hawaii, Arizona, Chile, Mexico, Spain and the South Pole participated in the ambitious research project.

The black hole was spotted in a galaxy called M87 that is 55 million light years away. A light year, which measures distance in space, equals 6 trillion miles.
THE SUN IS SPITTING OUT 'LAVA LAMP BLOBS' 500 TIMES THE SIZE OF EARTH
"We're delighted to report to you today that we have seen what we thought was unseeable," explained Dr. Shep Doeleman, director of the Event Horizon Telescope, during a press conference at the National Science Foundation Wednesday. "We have taken advantage of a cosmic opportunity."

"This was a Herculean task," explained National Science Foundation Director Dr. France Cordova, during the press conference, noting that the Event Horizon Telescope's findings transform and enhance our understanding of Black Holes.

"Black holes are extremely dense pockets of matter, objects of such incredible mass and miniscule volume that they drastically warp the fabric of space-time," explains the National Science Foundation, on its website. "Anything that passes too close, from a wandering star to a photon of light, gets captured. Most black holes are the condensed remnants of a massive star, the collapsed core that remains following an explosive supernova."

A mother claims that a spider bite left a giant hole in her sons leg.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
WARNING: GRAPHIC IMAGE BELOW
A 9-year-old boy has been left with a gruesome hole in his leg after a suspected poisonous spider bite allegedly ate away at the flesh on his limb, leaving him susceptible to serious infection. Bobby Cleary's mother told SWNS that her son first complained of itchy swelling on April 1, but they initially didn't suspect anything serious.

"I put some Savlon on it and didn't think much more of it," Emma Barnett, of Essex, told the news outlet. But when the boy was at school several days later, his teachers called to tell her he was limping, and that the wound had started oozing.
NYC HEALTH OFFICIALS WARN AGAINST 'MEASLES PARTIES' AMID BIGGEST OUTBREAK IN DECADES
She claims her doctor gave the boy antihistamine and a pain reliever before bandaging his leg and telling them not to worry. But the following day, Bobby's grandmother called Barnett to tell her that the dressing had filled with fluid and they rushed the boy to the emergency room.

"They dressed it again and gave him antibiotics so I felt better about it and that that would be that," she told the news outlet. "Thank goodness they knew what they were doing."

But over the weekend Bobby's wound worsened, and when they removed the dressing found a gaping hole.

"I panicked, I never seen anything like it," Barnett told SWNS.

At this point, she threw out the theory that the bite was from a harmless gnat, and started suspecting a poisonous spider. Barnett took her son back to the hospital where he was placed on an IV drip to flush out the poison.

Barnett said that as an infant, her son contracted an infection that now makes him more susceptible to developing sepsis, a potentially life-threatening condition caused by the body's reaction to an infection. As a result, she told SWNS that she will have to monitor her son for the next few months to ensure the wound doesn't become infected.

Spider bites are typically harmless, with black widow spider and the brown recluse spider usually named as prime suspects in bites that result in complications. Barnett reportedly suspects a black widow spider bit her son, but brown recluse spider bites can cause a sting or sharp pain, and cause surrounding skin to die within a few hours, according to the Mayo Clinic.

It may also be difficult to tell spider bites apart from other insect bites initially due to similar appearance.

Future Hall of Famer Tom Brady is used to throwing lasers, not having them shined in his face.

Nonetheless, Jackson County Prosecutor Jean Peters Baker announced Tuesday that Dwyan Morgan, a 64-year-old Chiefs fan, had been cited for shining a laser in the eyes of the New England Patriots quarterback. The incident allegedly took place during a playoff game when the Patriots faced the Chiefs at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Missouri, on Jan. 20.

Morgan, from Lee's Summit, Missouri, faces up to a year in prison and a fine of up to $1,000.

The citation was filed in Jackson County Municipal Court on Monday.

(AP Photo/Bill Wippert) In this Oct. 30, 2016, file photo, New England Patriots' Tom Brady (12), Rob Gronkowski (87) and James Develin (46) head back to the sideline after LeGarrette Blount scored a touchdown during the second half of the team's NFL football game against the Buffalo Bills in Orchard Park, N.Y.

Brady said following the game he was unaware of the laser being shined in his direction, though photos taken by Kansas City ABC affiliate KMBC showed the green laser on his body during the game.

The Patriots won the game, 37-31, in overtime, and went on to win the Super Bowl against the Los Angeles Rams.

The NFL had already banned the man from Arrowhead Stadium for life.

"There's a lot of pride in Kansas City, and we and our fans thought, 'You don't do that here,'" one Chiefs official told ESPN's Adam Schefter in February.

Morgan is scheduled to appear in court on July 17.

A suspected home intruder was fatally shot in the head in Houston on Tuesday while trying to escape with two other culprits, police said.

Shortly after arriving at his southwest Houston home, a father was pistol-whipped by three suspects who had forced him to open the door, police said. The father's two daughters managed to hide in the closet and hit a panic alarm. The girls were eventually found and the suspects continued ransacking the home, First Coast News reported.

When the father's wife and son arrived home, the suspects fled, the report said. As they were fleeing, the son retrieved a gun and shot one of the suspects in the head, reports said.

The mom managed to drive to a local police station unharmed, but the other two suspects stole the father's car and fled the scene, KRTK-TV reported. The suspect who was shot was taken to a hospital where he was pronounced dead. No other details were released.

Earlier this morning a Japanese F-35 stealth jet was lost, with it's pilot somewhere in the South China Sea, a US destroyer and several other Japanese vessels are in a frantic search for the aircraft.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Some of the parts belonging to a missing Japanese F-35 stealth fighter jet that crashed into the Pacific Ocean during a training flight have been recovered, the country's defense ministry announced Wednesday, as a U.S. guided-missile destroyer joined in on the frantic search for the rest of the aircraft and its pilot.

The U.S.-made plane vanished from radar Tuesday night shortly after taking off from the Misawa air base with three other F-35As - and experts have warned the loss of the jet could become a major security headache if Russia or China get their hands on the wreckage first.

Japan's Air Self-Defense Force said parts of the jet were found late Tuesday, but the rest of it and its pilot - whom officials say is a man in his 40s - are still missing. It's also not clear yet what caused the aircraft to plunge into the water.

The U.S. Navy's guided-missile destroyer USS Stethem and a P-8A maritime patrol aircraft are assisting in search and rescue efforts for the missing plane, which authorities say disappeared around 85 miles east of the base.

Japan started deploying the expensive F-35s last year as part of its plan to bolster defense spending and weapons capability to counter potential threats from North Korea and China. The 12 other F-35s at the Misawa base will be grounded as the search continues, Defense Minister Takeshi Iwaya said.

Under guidelines approved in December, Prime Minister Shinzo Abe's government plans to buy 147 F-35s, including 105 F-35As, costing about $90 million each.

Rome-based aviation expert, pilot, and former Italian Air Force officer David Cenciotti told Fox News on Tuesday that if Russia or China find the aircraft first, "it could present problems depending on what is recovered, when it is recovered and, above all, in which conditions, after impacting the surface of the water."

"The F-35 is a system of systems and its low observability/stealthiness is a system itself," he added.

"Historic" blizzard may drop 2 feet of snow this up coming weekend.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
It may be April but winter's icy grip remains firm across the central U.S., where a potential blockbuster storm is set to bring an onslaught of heavy snow and blizzard conditions through Friday.

Blizzard warnings are now in effect in 6 states, stretching from Colorado all the way up to Minnesota, according to Fox News Senior Meteorologist Janice Dean.

"This actually could be a historic storm for folks across these areas," Dean said Wednesday on " FOX & friends."

"We could see 6 to 12, to 24 inches of snow, winds in excess of 35, even 50 mph," Dean added. "Travel is going to be impossible in some of these areas."
'SIGNIFICANT' WINTER STORM THREATENS BLIZZARD CONDITIONS ACROSS CENTRAL US
The National Weather Service's Weather Prediction Center said the storm system will move over the Rockies and into the Northern Plains by Wednesday night, bringing heavy and wet snow to the region.

"A swath of 1 to 2 feet of snow is forecast for the Central/Northern Plains and into Western Minnesota through Thursday evening, with locally higher amounts," the NWS said.

The highest amount of snow is expected to fall across South Dakota, but the combination of snow and strong winds throughout the region will make traffic "difficult to impossible" as visibility drops to "near zero."

There is also the potential for sleet and freezing rain with accumulating ice near the border of Iowa and Minnesota, which may lead to power outages and dangerous travel.
2019 HURRICANE SEASON WILL BE 'SLIGHTLY BELOW-AVERAGE,' RESEARCHERS SAY
The storm could be similar to last month's " bomb cyclone" -- an unusual weather phenomenon in which air pressure plummets at least 24 millibars in 24 hours and a storm strengthens explosively -- that created devastating flooding across the Midwest.

While this latest storm may not intensify fast enough to that category, Colorado State Climatologist Russ Schumacher told the Associated Press it "will be near record intensity for April for this area."

Besides heavy snow, there is the potential for severe thunderstorms in warmer areas across the Midwest, according to Dean.

The storm is also renewing fears of flooding to a part of the country where massive flooding over the past month has caused billions of dollars in damage.

Nebraska is not expecting a repeat of the catastrophic flooding it experienced last month because the ground is no longer frozen and ice has melted from the rivers, though there might be localized flooding across the state, according to weather service meteorologist Van DeWald in Omaha. The biggest threat will remain along the already swollen Missouri River, he said.

"It's really just going to exacerbate that flooding and prolong it," he said. "We're probably looking at that surge hitting those Missouri River areas in Nebraska and Iowa three to five days after the storm."

In northwest Missouri's Holt County, where the raging Missouri River ravaged roads and highways, Emergency Management Director Tom Bullock is urging residents to be prepared to get out if another surge of water arrives after this week's storm.

"We don't have any protection," he told the AP. "Our levees are all broke."
