Anthony Mackie says he's a "white dude legend" because his white co-stars often get nominated for awards over him. It's happened so much that Mackie doubted his Emmy nom for "The Studio."

“I’m on set… and I look over and everybody’s like ‘Congratulations!’ And I was like, ‘Oh, what white dude got nominated?’ Because I’m the white dude legend when it comes to nominations and wins. I made Ryan Gosling famous. I made Jeremy Renner famous. I made Bryan Cranston famous. I now made Ron Howard famous! I’m like, if you want to get nominated, I’m the dude. You know what I mean?”

Mackie was Ryan Gosling’s co-star in 2006’s “Half Nelson,” which earned Gosling an Oscar nomination for best actor. He starred alongside Jeremy Renner in 2008’s “The Hurt Locker,” which won best picture and earned Renner a best actor Oscar nom. Mackie played Martin Luther King Jr. to Bryan Cranston’s Lyndon B. Johnson in the HBO movie “All the Way,” for which Cranston was an Emmy nominee. And now Mackie appeared with Ron Howard in “The Studio.” Only this time it wasn’t just Howard who got an Emmy nomination but Mackie, too.

Yes, this is real. 🇮🇹 Italian engineer and YouTuber Andrea Moccia (aka Carmagheddon) took a classic Fiat Panda 4x4 and sliced it down the middle—literally. The result? A fully functioning, street-legal vehicle that’s just 50 centimeters wide. It has working lights, brakes, steering, and even passed a road test!

While it can only fit the driver, it’s become a viral symbol of creative engineering and urban practicality—especially in traffic-jammed cities like Naples. This isn’t just a funny experiment—it’s the world’s narrowest drivable car. Try parallel parking this one.

Unearthed from the sands of Matariya, ancient Heliopolis near modern-day Cairo, this colossal quartzite head is attributed to Pharaoh Psamtik I of Egypt’s 26th Dynasty, dating to the 7th century BCE. Discovered in a waterlogged pit in 2017, the statue once stood in a temple honoring Ra, the sun god, whose cult flourished in this sacred precinct.

Despite centuries buried beneath urban sprawl, the statue’s features remain arrestingly lifelike—broad brow, serene mouth, and heavily lidded eyes, carved with hieratic precision. Traces of red pigment cling stubbornly to the stone, whispering of lost color and ceremonial splendor. The fractured crown and missing body heighten its aura of mystery, as does the public's awe-filled presence around it: camera lights flashing against the weight of centuries.

There’s a quiet defiance in this broken visage—still regal, still watching. From beneath layers of dust and history, a king returns, reminding us that memory is not easily erased. When ancient eyes rise once more into the light, who truly is uncovering whom?
