The Tennessee Titans will play the Minnesota Vikings in Week 2 of the NFL Preseason on Saturday night at U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Tennessee started the preseason with a loss last week, while Minnesota also got off on the wrong foot in their opener. Which team will get their first win of the season?

The Minnesota Vikings are 0-1 after they lost to the Seattle Seahawks by a score of 24-13 last week. Minnesota jumped out to a 10-0 lead early in the second quarter, but they only managed three points in the second half.

Jaren Hall went 6/14 for 37 yards in limited work. Ty Chandler led the backfield with 11 carries for 41 yards. Overall, Minnesota needs to generate more offense in this Game.

Pick

Both of these teams had major issues scoring in the second half of their games last week, as Tennessee was shut out and Minnesota only scored three points. Malik Willis looked pretty solid for Tennessee, while Nick Mullens played well for the Vikings. We should see a few more starters play in this game, but I doubt it will be for very long. With how both offenses looked last week, I think we are going to see a lower scoring game here. Take the under in this matchup.

Dunkleosteus, one of the largest and most hazardous sharks, was discovered in its bones 380 million years ago

Image
The marine Animals of the Devonian period, over 100 million years before the first dinosaurs, tended to be small and meek, but Dunkleosteus was the exception that proved the rule. This huge (about 30 feet long and three or four tons), armor-covered prehistoric fish was probably the largest vertebrate of its day, and almost certainly the largest fish of the Devonian seas. Reconstructions can be a bit fanciful, but Dunkleosteus likely resembled a large , underwater tank, with a thick body, bulging head, and massive, toothless jaws. Dunkleosteus wouldn’t have had to be a particularly good swimmer, since its bony armor would have been sufficient defense against the smaller, predatory sharks and fish of its briny habitat, such as Cladoselache. Because so many fossils of Dunkleosteus have been discovered, paleontologists know a good deal about the behavior and physiology of this prehistoric fish. For example, there’s some evidence that individuals of this genus occ...

British Pudding Day (November 9th)

Quick facts When is it? Every November 9th Tagged as Countries & Cultures Food & Drink What's the hashtag? #BritishPuddingDay Have we missed something? Tracing its History back to the early 14th century, British pudding has evolved over time. The name likely started out as “poding”, which literally was an animal stomach filled with meat and boiled. And considering that at the time it was something sort of like a sausage, the term was somewhat fitting! History of British Pudding Day Developing into something that could either be savory or sweet, by the 17th century British puddings or “puds” were typically boiled in special bags that were just for making pudding. And by the 18th century, most puddings did not even include meat. These dishes were typically boiled but also started to be steamed as well. In modern times, however, puddings can also be baked, though this would not have been the traditional. Today, the idea of pudding is almost exclusive...
