39 years ago, today, in 1985, Pete Rose, a Hall of Fame caliber baseball player, registered
his 4192nd career hit, breaking the record set by Ty Cobb.

in the history of baseball.

In top news, mold can be found in surprising places within your kitchen, from dishwashers
to refrigerator gaskets.
This diverse group of fungi thrives in environments with water, food and oxygen, making kitchens
ideal breeding grounds.
While small amounts of mold may not pose health risks, they can still induce allergic reactions.
To combat kitchen mold, experts recommend keeping surfaces clean and dry, reducing humidity,
and frequently cleaning areas like coffee machines and refrigerator seals.
If you find mold on food, toss moist items, while denser foods can often be salvaged.
Proper hygiene is essential to prevent mold growth and maintain a healthy kitchen.

Let's talk science.
Scientists are delving into the intriguing possibility that wormholes might be influencing
our perception of the universe.
Researchers in Greece propose that these tiny structures could help explain discrepancies
in our understanding of gravity and the expansion of the universe.
Their findings, published in a peer-reviewed journal, suggest that the positive cosmological
constant has created mathematical issues, predicting values much larger than observed.
By incorporating microscopic wormholes into their models, the scientists believe they
can account for dark energy and the observed cosmological constant, potentially reshaping
our understanding of space-time itself.
Entertainment news.
In The Order, Jude Law shines as a haunted lawman, potentially earning his first Oscar
nomination in 21 years.
The 51-year-old English actor portrays Terry Husk, an FBI agent drawn back into a violent
investigation after relocating to Idaho.
The film, directed by Justin Kerzel, premiered at the Venice Film Festival and is based on
a book about the FBI's pursuit of a domestic terror group in the 1980s.
Critics have embraced the film, drawing parallels to real-world extremism.
The Order will be released in limited theaters on December 6, showcasing Law's compelling
performance.
