The couple said the NYPD told them they could not connect the safe to a crime because the money was in poor condition and there was no ID or hints of who the item belonged to originally. The police allowed Kane and Agostini to keep the money, the couple said. The NYPD didn't return ABC News' request for comment.

Their next step, they said, is to take the crumbling money to the Treasury Department in Washington, D.C., where they believe it can be reconstructed.

iirc, much of the problem was that they wanted the remake to use the AC Origins engine, which apparently was difficult with the PoP: SoT gameplay style, and it was from one of their untested studios

An invasive fish with the head of a snake and the ability to survive on land for several days has been detected in Missouri. The state's Department of Conservation confirmed on Friday that a northern snakehead fish had been caught by a fisherman, marking the fourth observation of the invasive species in Missouri.

The department says that the northern snakehead fish can grow up to three feet long "with python-like coloration and pattern" and has a head that "resembles a snake." The first time of the invasive specimens was caught in the state was in 2019, CBS affiliate KFVS reported, with the two others being found last year.

MDC Fisheries biologist Dave Knuth said in a press release that once the angler realized he had a snakehead fish, he "left it on the pavement for several hours thinking it would die."
"And it never did," he said.

Officials put the fish in a bag and spent several hours transporting it to various departments. By the time conservation agent Jacob Plunkett got ahold of the fish, nearly four hours after it was placed in a bag, he said "it was still very much alive."

Most fish cannot survive outside of water for very long, but northern snakeheads are able to breathe air and can survive out of the water "for several days if their skin stays moist," the Missouri Department of Conservation said, adding that "they can also slither across land to return to water."

Northern snakeheads are one of three invasive snakehead species in the U.S. According to U.S. Fish and Wildlife, this species is native to Russia, China and the Korean Peninsula and "is the only one of the dozens of species of Channa well-suited to survive in America's temperate water."

The service said the animals have "large mouths full of pointed teeth, "flat, scaly heads" and are "exceptionally slimy," and that they are often misidentified as Bowfin fish and pickerels.

If anyone believes they have spotted a northern snakehead, they are advised not to release it back into the water. Instead, Missouri officials say they should either kill the fish by severing its head or gutting it or put it in a sealed plastic bag. The fish should also be photographed so it can be properly identified.

A Journey Through Another World: Raising Kids While Adventuring

https://twitter.com/UbisoftToronto/status/1797629314059661635

San Diego Padres infielder Tucupita Marcano is facing a potential lifetime ban for betting on baseball after Major League Baseball received information that he wagered on games involving the Pittsburgh Pirates when he was with the team last season, sources confirmed to ESPN on Monday.

Marcano, 24, has yet to be formally penalized, but MLB Rule 21 explicitly states that a player who bets on games involving his own team is subject to a lifetime ban. Marcano tore an ACL last year and was on the injured list when he allegedly placed the bets, which were flagged by a sportsbook and reported to the league, according to sources.

The potential ban of Marcano comes in the wake of the NBA handing down a lifetime penalty to Toronto Raptors forward Jontay Porter for disclosing confidential information to bettors, limiting his participation in at least one game and betting on NBA games while playing in the G League.

Four other minor league players are facing potential discipline for gambling as well, sources told ESPN. Even if a player in the minor leagues is on a team's 40-man roster, he would face a one-year suspension for gambling on major league games, according to Rule 21.

The Wall Street Journal first reported the looming discipline for all five players.

As pervasive as gambling in sports has become, it is particularly sensitive in baseball, a sport whose hit king, Pete Rose, remains banned for gambling, and whose championship series was thrown in 1919 by the Chicago White Sox. Los Angeles Dodgers superstar Shohei Ohtani's former interpreter, Ippei Mizuhara, has indicated he plans to plead guilty to federal felony charges after admitting he had stolen money from Ohtani to pay off gambling debts.

Marcano's case, about which MLB and the MLB Players Association continue to discuss the ultimate discipline, would represent the first direct penalty for a player betting on baseball since Rose. In 2015, Miami Marlins right-hander Jarred Cosart was fined for placing bets not on baseball but with an illegal bookmaker.

Since the Supreme Court's 2018 ruling that began the spread of legal betting in the U.S., 12 NFL players, an assistant coach and an undisclosed number of league personnel have been suspended for violating the gambling policy, in addition to Porter's banishment from the NBA.

MLB and the MLBPA declined comment, as did Marcano through his agent. Pirates senior vice president of communications Brian Warecki told ESPN: "We are aware of the matter that's under investigation and are fully cooperating. We will refrain from further comment at this time."

In a statement, the Padres said: "We are aware of an active investigation by Major League Baseball regarding a matter that occurred when the player in question was a member of another organization and not affiliated with the San Diego Padres. We will not have any further comment until the investigative process has been completed."

Marcano rejoined the Padres this winter as a waiver claim after they had sent him to Pittsburgh at the 2021 trade deadline in a trade for infielder Adam Frazier. In 149 career games, Marcano hit .217/.269/.320 with five home runs and seven stolen bases in 447 plate appearances.

A series of fire hydrant thefts in the Florence-Firestone neighborhood of South Los Angeles has left residents without a working hydrant near their homes.

The thefts of four hydrants near the intersection of 82nd Street and Hooper Avenue mean the block doesnt have even one operating hydrant, KTLAs Jennifer McGraw reports.

Its beyond annoying, area resident Krystail Cousins said. Why would you steal a fire hydrant? What are you going to do with a fire hydrant? Now you have a whole neighborhood of houses that are in danger because we have no access for our fire department.

Similar thefts have occurred in Lynwood, according to the Los Angeles County Sheriffs Department.

Work is underway to replace the hydrants and install locks to prevent future thefts.

The report details several other Google incidents for the time including accidentally logging children's speech data, storing licence plate information captured by the Google Street View cameras and making YouTube recommendations based on user's deleted watch history.

The full dataset was obtained by 404 by an "anonymous tipster". Google has since verified the internal report's contents, stating that all of the issues were "reviewed and resolved at that time."

Awful movie.

The CGI was embarrassingly bad, and the plot was awful. It felt like they wrote a script and threw in as many references as possible even if they made no sense at all.

Lisa Trevor recognizing Claire as an adult was stupid.
