🚨🔴 Good news for Man United today as Amad Diallo returns to full training with the first-team squad.
“Amad gets back to fitness after a knee injury”, the club confirm.
J. Robert Oppenheimer and Brigadier General Leslie R. Groves Jr., pivotal figures in the Manhattan Project, found themselves at Ground Zero, the site of the first nuclear test, around September 1945. This historic moment marked the culmination of years of intense scientific and engineering efforts to develop the world's first atomic bomb during World War II.
Oppenheimer, the scientific director of the Manhattan Project, played a central role in orchestrating the collaboration of brilliant minds at Los Alamos National Laboratory. His leadership and intellect were instrumental in bringing together the scientific knowledge necessary to achieve nuclear fission. His complex relationship with the destructive power of the bomb is encapsulated in his famous quote from the Bhagavad Gita: "Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds."
On the other hand, Brigadier General Leslie R. Groves Jr. served as the military director of the Manhattan Project. Tasked with overseeing the logistics, security, and coordination of the vast scientific endeavor, Groves played a crucial role in ensuring the project's success. His meticulous management and organizational skills were pivotal in the complex task of harnessing atomic energy for military purposes.
The moment at Ground Zero symbolized the transformation of theoretical physics into a devastating reality. The successful test of the atomic bomb in the New Mexico desert marked the beginning of the nuclear age, altering the course of history and shaping the geopolitical landscape for decades to come. Oppenheimer and Groves stood as witnesses to the immense power they had unleashed, and their roles in this chapter of history remain both celebrated and controversial.

Most people know the story of Abraham Lincoln, the 16th president of the United States, his efforts to end slavery and his fierce leadership during the Civil War, but not many people know much about his son, Thomas.
Thomas, who was the youngest of Lincoln's children, was born on April 4, 1853, and was named after President Lincoln's father. It is said that, at his birth, his father looked at him and thought he resembled a tadpole, which gained him the lifelong nickname of "Tad." Tad is said to have been a rambunctious and spontaneous child who was one of his father's favorite children. Tad also had some type of speech impediment, which some people now think to have been a cleft palate of some sort. Many people who were around him wrote that he had his own way of speaking and developed his own names for people.
When his father became President, Tad is said to have been his father's biggest supporter and, at times, a bit of a distraction. Certain officials wrote of Tad spontaneously bursting into the room while important business was going on and throwing himself upon his father for a hug, which President Lincoln was said to have gladly welcomed.
After his father was shot in 1865, he became a source of great strength and encouragement for his mother. However, in 1871, at the age of 18, Tad died of an illness (possibly tuberculosis or pneumonia) which absolutely devastated his mother, who had already experienced much loss in her lifetime.
