Staunch Rangers duo spark Celtic fan fury on Hotline as title accusation turned on its head
The Rangers faithful reckon they are looking at a brighter future - but the Celtic support aren't ready to forget the Ibrox club's recent past. Monday's caller John Stewart took aim at the Parkhead club as he accused them of winning a series of 'tainted titles'. Predictably, a few of folk didn't quite agree with that statement. First up was Glen Mitchell, who said: 'John Stewart mentions Celtic winning tainted titles, which they never were. He must have forgotten about his old club's tainted titles in the EBT years. Now they really were tainted.' William Hutchison, Aberdeen, added: 'What on earth is yesterday's caller on about claiming all the titles Celtic have won since 2012 are tainted? 'There was only one which went to a vote and that was during lockdown. The rest were won fair and square. 'And don't give me the line about them not counting because Rangers weren't in the Premiership for four of those years. If the other teams had won the league, would you say they were tainted too? I doubt it.' Gordon Ashley, Ayr, called to say: 'John Stewart and George Wilson talk about Celtic being arrogant and winning tainted titles! 'Rangers cheated their way to multiple trophies using money they never had and dodgy tax schemes that denied clubs like Ayr United and Falkirk trophies that are rightfully theirs. One day those trophies will be rescinded.' David Oliver, Hawick, said: 'I can't believe come of the Rangers comments. Alan Flett says they are 'back to where we belong'. 'They've only been in existence since 2012 and were never there in the first place. 'John Stewart mentions tainted titles. He must be forgetting about a previous club in the 90s who had nine tainted titles. 'And as for Celtic having it their own way, the treble success started after Rangers returned to the top league. Green eyes, blue noses spring to mind.' Russell Martin looks to have leapt to the front of the race to land the Ibrox manager's gig. But Eddie Easson, Fife, said: 'So serial winner Russell Martin is the new favourite. Sporting Director Keith Thelwell is the expert picking him. Notably his former club Everton didn't fight to keep him.' But Rangers fan Alec Morrison, Edinburgh, hit back on behalf of the blue half of Glasgow, saying: 'Got to laugh at they Bhoys. They started off years ahead, then miles ahead and are now only streets ahead of Rangers. 'They are starting to panic. If we can bring in a goalie, centre-back, right-back and a No10, then they are there for the taking. 'Celtic beat us once in the league in four games last season. We know that £20million isn't a lot - they spent that on Adam Idah and Arne Pengels. We spent £3million on Nico Raskin and Hamza Igamane, I know what two I'd prefer.' John Alexander, Glasgow, said: 'I see Keith Jackson is still blaming Craig Whyte and giving David Murray a free ride for Rangers' demise in 2011. 'Whyte was no more than a useful idiot for Murray, who has never been brought to account for his role in bringing a Scottish institution to its knees.' Neil Renton, Leith, called to discuss former Hibs boss Nick Montgomery's claims that dodgy VAR decisions played a part in his Easter Road exit, saying: 'Montgomery is right - Hibs are the most hard done team when it comes to VAR decisions going against them. If we were treated as fairly as everyone else then we'd be challenging for second place.' Stephen Mulhern, Dumbarton, also wanted to talk about one of this season's top Leith performers. The Hoops fan said: 'It's common knowledge that Celtic's Achilles heal last season was any high ball launched into the penalty area. 'With Brendan Rodgers still undecided over who should partner Cameron Carter-Vickers, I'd like to see him take a punt on Hibs no-nonsense centre back Rocky Bushiri, who is out of contract this summer.'

Study reveals how woolly mammoths adapted to survive ice age
Research has revealed how woolly mammoths and other species adapted to survive the ice age. A team of palaeontologists and palaeogeneticists studied ancient fossil and DNA evidence to understand the changes animals and plants went through in the Northern Hemisphere. They found that cold-adapted animals began to evolve 2.6 million years ago, when permanent ice at the poles became more common. The study showed that many current cold-adapted species, as well as extinct ones like mammoths, evolved around 700,000 years ago, when cold periods doubled in length.

John Stewart, professor of paleoecology at Bournemouth University, led the study. He said: "The cold-adapted species are among the most vulnerable animals and plants to ongoing climate change. "Therefore, an understanding of how species evolved in the past is essential to help us understand the risks faced by endangered species today." As part of their research, the team compared evidence of evolution in plants and beetles with that for mammals.

This means that the way the modern Arctic ecologies assembled needs to be resolved, as it is not clear when and how the animals and plants who live there came together. The study found evidence for early occurrences of true lemmings and reindeer in the Arctic, where they may have evolved as climates cooled in the early Pleistocene period, between one and two million years ago. The polar bear and Arctic fox, on the other hand, may have joined them more recently within the last 700,000 years, colonising from the south. Some of the ice age cold species like the woolly rhino are different and may have evolved in the steppe grasslands to the south, with the earliest occurrences in the Tibetan Plateau. Professor Stewart said: "This is the first concerted effort to compare the evolution of cold-adapted animals and plants since modern methods of palaeogenetics appeared."

Nathan Fillion to Play Guy Gardner in DC's "Lanterns"
Yara Sameh HBO's upcoming DC series 'Lanterns' has tapped Nathan Fillion to play Guy Gardner, one of multiple Green Lanterns in the cast. This will be far from Fillion's first time playing a Lantern. He debuted as one of DC's green heroes in the 2011 animated film 'Green Lantern: Emerald Knights.' In it, he was the voice actor for Hal Jordan, one of many members of the Green Lantern Corps. He played the role again in 2012's 'Justice League: Doom,' 2013's 'Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox,' 2015's 'Justice League: Throne of Atlantis,' 2018's 'The Death of Superman' and 2019's 'Reign of the Supermen.' Each of the animated films was a straight-to-DVD release. In 2023, he was cast as a Green Lantern in James Gunn's live-action film 'Superman,' but as Gardner instead of Jordan. The film opens in theaters via Warner Bros. this July. 'Lanterns' stars Kyle Chandler as Hal Jordan and Aaron Pierre as John Stewart. Per the official logline, the series 'follows new recruit John Stewart and Lantern legend Hal Jordan, two intergalactic cops drawn into a dark, earth-based mystery as they investigate a murder in the American heartland.' Kelly Macdonald, Garret Dillahunt, Poorna Jagannathan and Ulrich Thomsen also star. Chris Mundy serves as showrunner of 'Lanterns,' and wrote the pilot with Damon Lindelof and Tom King. All three executive produce alongside Gunn, Peter Safran, Ron Schmidt and James Hawes, who is directing the first two episodes. Stephen Williams, Geeta Vasant Patel and Alik Sakharov will also direct. The series entered production in February. read more New Tourism Route To Launch in Old Cairo Ahmed El Sakka-Led Play 'Sayidati Al Jamila' to Be Staged in KSA on Dec. 6 Mandy Moore Joins Season 2 of "Dr. Death" Anthology Series Don't Miss These Movies at 44th Cairo Int'l Film Festival Today Amr Diab to Headline KSA's MDLBEAST Soundstorm 2022 Festival Arts & Culture Mai Omar Stuns in Latest Instagram Photos Arts & Culture "The Flash" to End with Season 9 Arts & Culture Ministry of Culture Organizes four day Children's Film Festival Arts & Culture Canadian PM wishes Muslims Eid-al-Adha News Egypt confirms denial of airspace access to US B-52 bombers News Ayat Khaddoura's Final Video Captures Bombardment of Beit Lahia News Australia Fines Telegram $600,000 Over Terrorism, Child Abuse Content Lifestyle Pistachio and Raspberry Cheesecake Domes Recipe Arts & Culture Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban's $4.7M LA Home Burglarized Videos & Features Bouchra Dahlab Crowned Miss Arab World 2025 ..
