According to data released by the New York City Board of Elections on Tuesday, in the 11th round of ranked-choice voting, Adams received 51.1 percent of votes while Garcia received 48.9 percent of votes—a total of 368,898 votes for Adams and 352,990 votes for Garcia. Maya Wiley, former counsel to current Mayor Bill de Blasio, was eliminated in the final round of the ranked-choice voting after receiving just 29.3 percent of votes in the 10th round....

The conservative group, led by outspoken “never Trump” Republican Bill Kristol, released its latest advertisement targeting the GOP’s hypocrisy. In the ad, several Nixon-era Republican members of the House Judiciary Committee warned of the dangerous precedent set by not impeaching the president. The video directly parallels Nixon’s refusal to comply with subpoenas to that of Trump doing the exact same move today. Kristol’s Republican group previously ran an ad in October which helped successfully push Trump to abandon plans to host next year’s G-7 summit at his own Florida golf course....

In a paper published in the academic journal Neotropical Biodiversity on June 13, scientists David Brito-Zapata and Carolina Reyes-Puig revealed that they had named their amphibious discovery for the iconic British rock band. Formed in London in 1968, Led Zeppelin produced several of the most commercially successful songs in music history, including “Whole Lotta Love” and “Stairway to Heaven.” “The name honours Led Zeppelin and their extraordinary music,” Brito-Zapata and Reyes-Puig wrote, crediting the band with the rise “of both hard rock and heavy metal....

The “Ice Prince” is thought to have been of high birth, as the experts also recovered a sword and scabbard, as well as other significant artifacts. The Bavarian State Office for the Preservation of Monuments (Bayerisches Landesamt fur Denkmalpflege [BLFD]) recovered the grave in Tussenhausen, southeastern Germany, in October 2021. The BLFD said in a statement obtained Wednesday that “the ice shell had protected the exceptionally well-preserved burial during transport to the archaeological restoration workshop....

The study, which was published on December 3 in the journal Science Immunology, found that a new combination adjuvant—or type of ingredient that can allow vaccines to create a stronger immune response—may boost the effectiveness of inoculations ranging from HIV to COVID-19. According to LJI, adjuvants act as “red flags” that lead the immune system to react more strongly to antigens and develop the necessary cells for the body to fight off disease....

On the other side of the world, Internetters can piggyback on a three month bike-riding expedition through Mexico and Central America. Not that the five-person Maya Quest team doesn’t have enough to car : in order to maintain an Internet connection, their travel gear includes a satellite dish. Students on Prodigy will electronically advise the team to make pit stops and detours; other students on the Internet from 40,000 U....

The 2022 FIFA World Cup schedule was set back in April when the groups were determined. But it raised eyebrows when it did not include a traditional inaugural match involving host nation Qatar. Instead, the schedule had Qatar playing the second of four matches on opening day on Monday, November 21, behind Senegal vs. Netherlands. That has now been rectified. The host has played in the opening match of each World Cup since 2006, superseding the previous tradition of the defending champions playing in the opening match....

The renderings of the new “Budweiser Bleachers” show new patio-type sections in left and right fields called the “Well” and the “Porch.” MORE: Classic photos of Wrigley Field The reopened bleachers will, according to the team, include “new group spaces, improved concessions and additional room for fans to socialize and watch the game.” Via the Chicago Tribune , “The Cubs took the old saying, ‘If you can’t beat ’em, join ’em,’ to another level in their long-standing battle with rooftop owners....

Domestic domination is one thing but following the type of investment that owners QSI made last summer in brining Neymar and Kylian Mbappe to the French capital, more is expected. An exit at the last-16 stage of the Champions League for the second successive season is not acceptable – even if Real Madrid, specialists in the competition, were their conquerors. Changes are needed and will surely come. Head coach Unai Emery’s failure to deliver that will cost him his job in the summer, with Thomas Tuchel set to take over, yet it would be unjust to lay all of the club’s ills at the door of the Spaniard....

When Clinton arrived Wednesday afternoon, he briefly worked the crowd, then headed to his borrowed beachfront house. After a morning jog he skipped Thursday’s main seminar on “The First Year of the Clinton Administration,” perhaps to prep for his own headline presentation scheduled on the last night, “What I’ve Learned This Year.” Very much in evidence: families with teenagers to entertain Chelsea. Notably absent: alumni David Gergen and Strobe Talbott, who now have top administration jobs....

Police officers in the city have until Friday to receive at least one dose of the vaccine after the ruling by State Island judge Lizette Colon. On Monday the Police Benevolent Association (PBA) filed a request for a temporary restraining order asking the Staten Island supreme court to ban the city and the NYPD from implementing the vaccine mandate until the union’s lawsuit is processed. Colon on Wednesday also ordered city officials to appear in court on November 12 to defend the vaccine mandate against the union’s lawsuit, the Associated Press reported....

As temperatures reached the 90s, computer glitches cut off communication signals that power the “A Station,” which contains train lines 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6. Train service came to a stop while many trains were stuck on the track between stations during rush hour. The shuttle connecting Times Square to Grand Central was also suspended. Most lines had been restored and returned to normal service by 8 p....

But daily death tolls in California, New Jersey, Massachusetts, Michigan, Illinois, Florida and Louisiana have been rising on a steep gradient in recent weeks, according to the latest analysis. New York reported 11,571 new confirmed cases on Wednesday, which was a large spike from the 7,177 new infections recorded on Tuesday. However, the latest jump follows a decline in new cases for three consecutive days between April 10 and 12, and a nearly flat number of new cases from April 7 to 9....

Boozy ice creams will be limited to five percent alcohol by volume and would be labeled, similarly to already existing wine, beer and cider-infused treats. The bill has been positioned as both a boon for consumers—who get to lick, lick, lick whiskey ice cream or gin sorbets—and an expanded field for liquor distillers, dairy farmers, craft producers, food retailers and restaurants. “New Yorkers are already able to responsibly enjoy beer, wine, and cider infused ice creams....

New York Governor Andrew Cuomo said that the state will now offer a third dose of either the Moderna or Pfizer coronavirus vaccine to individuals with compromised immune systems. “Eligible New Yorkers can receive their 3rd dose 28 days after the completion of their two-dose vaccine series, effective immediately,” the governor wrote on Twitter. New York joins a growing number of states and counties that began offering a third vaccine dose over the weekend, including New Jersey, Washington state, and Los Angeles County....

Zibanejad scored a power-play goal, an even-strength goal and a shorthanded goal on Saturday night against his former squad. He is the first Ranger to accomplish the feat since Derek Stepan in 2014, and the hat trick marked the third in the Swede’s career. After netting a career-high in goals (30) and points (74) last season, he scored on opening night against the Winnipeg Jets and now has four goals in two games....

Governor Kathy Hochul made the announcement at a Wednesday press conference that the state will let its mask mandate for some indoor businesses, which had been facing a legal challenge, expire the following day. Hochul’s decision comes as several Democrat-led states begin to pull back requirements as the Omicron wave appears to be subsiding, with over half of states seeing major declines in new cases. Mask and vaccine requirements have been a contentious debate between Democrats and Republicans amid the pandemic....

That is, according to a post on the Times’ website. MORE: Nick Young likes ‘winning atmosphere’ of LA | Knicks in teardown mode | Cavs consulted LeBron before trade It’s mostly been taken as a joke, but the Knicks are a miserable 5-32, giving them the worst winning percentage in the NBA. New York on Monday was part of a blockbuster trade with the Cavaliers and Thunder that amounted to a salary dump for the Knicks, who gave away J....

While most people want a spacious bathroom, one woman revealed her fixtures meant her toilet was practically in the middle of the room, leaving an awkwardly large space behind it. The tenant, named Prosperitea, shared a clip to her TikTok page, as she gave people a tour of her home. “Things in my NYC [New York city] apartment that just make sense. The entire spare bedroom behind my toilet,” she said filming the space....

Called the No Hate. No Fear. march, the event was organized by the UJA-Federation of New York in response to a string of recent attacks apparently targeting Jews. Among those incidents was the December 28 stabbing of five people as they attended a Hanukkah celebration at a Hasidic rabbi’s house. Prior to that, an attack on December 10 at a kosher deli in Jersey City, New Jersey left three civilians dead....
