This photo, taken on 25 June 1848, is the first in the history of photography ever used to illustrate a news story.
The photograph shows the Rue Saint-Maur-Popincourt in Paris during the June Days Uprising, full of barricades that were used in a battle between government forces and demonstrating workers.
The photo was published as an engraving in L'Illustration, 1-8 July 1848.

"The egg has been taken to the Natural History Museum in London. Edward Biddulph, the senior project manager at Oxford Archaeology said it had felt a little daunting riding on the tube and walking around the capital with such an extraordinary and fragile egg in his care." "Dana Goodburn-Brown, an archaeological conservator and materials scientist said: The egg ranks as one of the coolest and most challenging archaeological finds to investigate and conserve. Being the temporary caretaker and investigator of this Roman egg counts as one of the major highlights of my 40-year career."

Day 7: Dewayo
(Two person dialogue? In a prompt entry? Yep. So I knew that when this came up I had to do something with the strange rivalry between this guy and the Snallygaster. I mean what other cryptids literally have a rivalry like they're pokemon? I don't actually know where Umbra and Gloom came from, I think it was just a stroke of imagination. Either that or I need to stop staring into the dark parts of my room.)
Hello everyone and welcome back to the Corner! Your one stop shop for all things news and where we find all the best stories, right from the places you never think to check! This is Umbra and this is my partner Gloom. We’re here with the latest lead on an old story. Tell me Gloom, what can you tell me about the Dwayyo and the Snallygaster? Well Umbra, from my time in the shadows that they are some of the greatest rivals you’ll ever know. Bigger than Kennedy and Khrushchev, tougher than Grant and Lee, meaner than Hamilton and Burr. Lemme tell you folks, their fights are legendary. Not to mention they’ve never had a decisive winner!
No! Yes indeed Umbra! My time in the seams in between observing them has shown me that not once have either of them won a clean victory. They either beat themselves up too much to declare a victor or they spill onto someone else’s territory and they have to bail. But we’ve got something big for you folks tonight. Everyone knows how the fights go, but no one has ever had any idea how they began at all.
Everyone loves a good origin story. So we took it upon ourselves to do what we do best. Me and Gloom here managed to interview both of them during their rare moments of rest. I had to catch Mr. Dwayyo here from the twilight behind a tree. You’re saying that like you had a harder time! I had to get the Snallygaster from the shadow casted by a pebble by a fire! Do you know how hard it is to squeeze through such a tight place? We probably shouldn’t bicker, lest we get locked in eternal combat like our interviewees here. Now then, comparing our testimonies led to a very interesting story. Gloom, would you care to set the stage? Picture the scene: Rural Maryland, the 1740s. A cavalcade of German immigrants come to the wonderland that is the United States. All they’re looking for is a better life in the wild and untamed frontier. But it wasn’t nature that they needed to fear. For they brought their own monsters with them. Snallygaster actually came first. He said he was born out of the fears of those people, of the wilderness, of the natives, of just plain being far away from home. In fact, according to his testimony, he used to be a monster made up by the parents to get the kids to not wander into the forest. Soon enough however, their fear grew and grew and grew until it became the trees soon heard the howls of the mythical horror they had unleashed.
In comes in the Dwayyo. Unlike our friend Snallygaster, he had a more solid origin. He actually used to be a werewolf. Cursed since the days back in Germany, he escaped to the US to become less of a threat to people. But when the Snallygaster started picking off livestock, especially the human kind, that’s when he decided to do something. He made a deal with a devil to fully transform into a wolf monster so he would always be able to protect his people from the Snallygaster. Ever since then he’s been fighting the Snallygaster to make sure that no one else would be hurt or scared by the beast.
There you have it folks, the Dwayyo vs the Snallygaster. Almost a mythic tale of hero vs monster, although in this case the hero became a monster himself. They kinda remind me of us y’know? Doing the dirty work away from the eyes of the masses. 
Although I doubt shadow people like us would do well in a fight.
Aw come on Gloom, don’t be such a downer. Give me some gloves and a ring and I could knock anyone out.
Umbra, you do realize shadow boxing isn’t literal.
Well folks, I think that’s all the time we have today! Tune in next week for another scoop from the shadows. I’m Umbra.
And I’m Gloom.
Come by the Corner soon!

I recently started to write a ff story about Gladion (Pokemon sun and moon), I know there’s no more hype about him since the season is over but it’s still a character that I appreciate a lot, and that I find beautifully written. It’s also probably the only reason I kinda miss 2016-
Anyways, here it is, let me know what y’all think! If you find anything wrong with my writing style since English isn’t my first language please tell me!

One in a Million
I saw it is coming a while ago, none other then pain. Yes i saw pain coming into my life again. Maybe this time it won't last as long as it did before. But, surely it is going to leave me miserable.
But, now it seems little light. I think I was ready for the pain to visit me.
Maybe I'm convinced that being in pain for a while is as beautiful as being happy.
Maybe I have finally understood that dealing with pain is not smartness but feeling it and letting it go is.
So this time I'm going to do what exactly my gut says to me.
Yes, i will feel all of it, I'll feel the grief, the betrayal, the loss of a loved one but I will keep going. Because life has to offer me more that this pain.
I know there are days to come where I'll feel awful for having a human heart and also some days I'll be super proud for not giving up on me.
And i feel these are the moments we live for. To make ourselves believe that we did it, we made it through all despite the hardness, despite falling down for 9 time ridiculously we made it and got up for the 10th time with bandages all over the soul and body.
To be honest- Yes ! It does hurt to be strong always. But being strong is contagious when you do it for N number of time.
I know pretending being in a bed of flowers is not easy when actually you are bandaging and stitching your wounds without anyone knowing it.
That's why I say souls like you are real and has to be preserved at any cost.
That's why I say souls like you are resilient and fascinating in your very own way.
I appreciate your pain and your strength to not give up.
Because a soul like you is one in a million !
