Twin Cam for Twin Hearts at Newport Car Museum

1958 MGA Twin Cam Roadster Debuts on Valentine’s Day when Loved Ones Can Visit for Free

The Newport Car Museum will debut a rare 1958 MGA Twin Cam Roadster on Valentine’s Day (Tuesday, February 14) when a loved one gets free admission with the purchase of an adult ticket. The MGA is one of several “new” additions planned for the lead-up to the Museum’s sixth Anniversary in June and joins over 90 cars on permanent display in six galleries and a pop-up Porsche exhibit.

The private collection, one of the largest open to the public and representing eight decades of modern industrial design (starting with the 1950s and finishing with new models from the 21st Century), is stunningly displayed in a beautifully restored building that was once Raytheon Technologies’ missile manufacturing facility. It includes favorites for all ages and takes about 90 minutes to enjoy the full experience, which includes a remarkable collection of Mid-Century Modern furniture, award-winning videos, large-format artwork and a gift shop that’s one of the most intriguing on Aquidneck Island.

Breeding cows to lay ᴜпіqᴜe eggs at the peculiar Dutch cow farm (VIDEO)

The Netherlands is renowned for its cheese, windmills, and tulips, but have you ever come across a cow farm exclusively dedicated to raising cows that produce special eggs? That’s correct, you heard it correctly: eggs from cows! Located in the һeагt of the Netherlands, this ѕtгапɡe cow farm is unlike any other. Rather than raising cows for milk, meаt, or even cheese, they specialize in breeding cows that lay special eggs. These eggs are not like the ones you see in the supermarket, they are much larger and have a thicker shell, making them more durable. The idea of raising cows for eggs may seem ᴜпᴜѕᴜаɩ, but it’s not as сгаzу as it sounds. In fact, cows that lay eggs are not a new concept. The practice originated in Indonesia in the early 20th century and has since spread to other parts of the world, including the Netherlands. The cows on this farm are carefully bred to produce these special eggs, which are then ѕoɩd to local markets and restaurants. They are also popular amo...

Quick facts When is it? Every June 25th Tagged as Items & Things Science & Technology What's the hashtag? #ColorTVDay Have we missed something? There is an innovation that many of us take for granted every day. Whether we’re sitting at our computers, watching television with the family, or even playing with our handheld Game s, we are inundated with a bright parade of colors.

The first commercial broadcast was a variety show, containing a number of entertainers, whose name would go on to become legend, including Ed Sullivan. While this broadcast was only available to those who owned a color-ready TV, it was the first step to changing everything. TV first started being experi...
