Good Morning! On this date in 1820, a Greek farmer stumbled across a damaged statue. We know it now as the Venus de Milo, one of the iconic sculptures of antiquity. Sadly, the arms were lost in a shipwreck while being taken to France. (See Statue)

Israel Pulls Troops From Southern Gaza
Israel on Sunday said it had withdrawn most of its army from southern Gaza, leaving just one brigade as it and Hamas sent teams to Egypt to begin another round of ceasefire talks.
The Israeli Defense Force said it had concluded its months-long operation in the city of Khan Younis, leaving unclear the future of the long-term offensive against Hamas.
Israeli officials spoke of an upcoming mission in Rafah, where more than 1 million Palestinians are sheltering near the Egyptian border. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said again Sunday there’d be no ceasefire without the release of the remaining hostages.
Ohio state law requires certifying candidates for its presidential ballot by Aug. 7. However, the Democratic National Convention isn’t until Aug. 19 in Chicago, too late to meet Ohio’s deadline.
Rose sent a letter Friday outlining this to the state Democratic Party chair. In it, he outlined two ways to fix the problem: change the date of the convention, or have the state legislature change the law by May 9.
It’s uncertain how easy either would be. Ohio is a “trifecta” state, with Republicans controlling the state House, Senate, and governor’s office. The Biden campaign said it was “confident that Joe Biden will be on the ballot in all 50 states.”
South Carolina Beats Iowa for NCAA Championship
The South Carolina Gamecocks capped their undefeated season Saturday by winning the women’s NCAA championship 87-75 against the Iowa Hawkeyes and their superstar Caitlin Clark.
That marks South Carolina’s second national title in three seasons, making them the 10th team in Division 1 history to complete an undefeated season.
Iowa began the game with a 10-0 lead behind Clark’s shooting. She set another record by scoring 18 points in the first quarter, but USC came back and led through most of the second half.
Clark had a phenomenal tournament run, setting several records. Among those were TV ratings—Iowa’s victory over UConn Friday peaked at 17 million viewers, beating every NBA Finals and World Series game from last year.

Aging happens to us all, but it turns out you have more control than you might think. That’s because only ~30% of aging is influenced by genetics; the rest is determined by your lifestyle. While choices like getting regular exercise, prioritizing sleep, and eating plant-based foods greatly impact overall health, scientists have identified a remarkable new molecule that could positively impact how we age.
Enter Urolithin A. Scientists discovered this potent molecule which directly targets how cells age by renewing the cellular engines in your body. Urolithin A is a key player in muscle function, a crucial piece of your aging journey – but 80%+ of Americans are missing out through diet alone. Good news: Mitopure® by Timeline, an incredibly effective, highly pure form of Urolithin A is now available in a daily supplement.
