When Nicholas Hall started as a chef at The Bays aged care home in Hastings in 2018, he recalls noticing something strange: almost all the elderly residents there seemed to be on a diet where their food was cut up.

LIBERTY TOWNSHIP, Ohio â In a push to get people back to work, Ohio governor Mike Dewine is opting the state out of the Federal Pandemic Unemployment Compensation program at the end of June.

To many, it might just look like a piece of gravel, but this rock has an extraordinary tale to tell.
It is in fact a piece of a meteorite, which has been floating around in space for more than four billion years.
It fell to Earth in spectacular fashion in February, crash landing in the Cotswolds and sparking a frantic search effort.
After being found in a sheep field, the lump was donated to the museum by its discoverers, despite being estimated by external experts to be worth a whopping £100,000.
It is now on display at the Natural History Museum, which will reopen to the public on Monday 17 May.
