The ring joins other pieces of jewelry from the Early Hellenistic period discovered in this excavation.

Annapolis, MD - May 20, 2025 - Maryland Gov. Wes Moore signed the $61 billion state budget and the so-called budget reconciliation bill that includes a series of fee increases and a new 3% sales tax on technology services used by businesses.

Among the fees increased are car registrations. Those fees have doubled. Another bill increases safety rules for workers, including requiring parole and probation agents and corrections workers to wear body cameras.
This is the last scheduled bill signing. A...
Passengers on Southwest Airlines flights will soon be required to keep their portable chargers in plain sight while using them because of concerns about the growing number of lithium battery fires in a new policy that other airlines may adopt.
Southwest announced the new policy that will go into effect May 28 and said passengers may already have seen notifications about the industry-leading rule when using the airline's app.
There is growing concern about lithium-ion battery fires on planes because the number of incidents continues to grow yearly, and devices powered by those batteries are ubiquitous. There have already been 19 incidents involving these batteries this year, following last year's record high of 89, according to Federal Aviation Administration statistics.

Delta Air Lines says it will resume daily nonstop flights to Tel Aviv from New York’s JFK airport starting today.
“The decision to resume the route on May 20, which was temporarily suspended in response to ongoing conflict in the region, follows an extensive security risk assessment by the airline,” Delta says in a statement. “Delta is continuously monitoring the evolving security environment and assessing operations based on security guidance and intelligence reports.”
The US carrier says a travel waiver will be valid for customers who purchased tickets to Tel Aviv on or before May 5 for travel through May 25.
On May 4, Delta halted all flights to Tel Aviv after a ballistic missile from Yemen struck an area of Israel’s main international airport.
