SYDNEY (AP) — With fangs that could pierce a human fingernail, the largest male specimen of the world’s most venomous arachnid has found a new home at the Australian Reptile Park where it will help save lives after a member of the public discovered it by chance.The deadly Sydney funnel-web spider dubbed “Hercules” was found on the Central Coast, about 50 miles north of Sydney, and was initially given to a local hospital, the Australian Reptile Park said in a statement Thursday.Spider experts from the nearby park retrieved it and soon realized it was the largest male specimen ever received from the public in Australia. The spider measured 7.9 centimeters (3.1 inches) from foot to foot, surpassing the park’s previous record-holder from 2018, the male funnel-web named “Colossus”. Sydney funnel-web spiders usually range in length from one to five centimeters, with females being generally larger than their male counterparts but not as deadly.

La alcaldesa Muriel Bowser otorgará fondos adicionales a los beneficios del Programa de Asistencia Nutricional Suplementaria (SNAP, en inglés), evitando un enfrentamiento con el Concejo de DC y una posible demanda.Aproximadamente 140,000 personas en el Distrito reciben beneficios de SNAP, a menudo llamados cupones para alimentos. En marzo pasado, hubo una disminución de fondos después de que se agotaron los fondos federales de ayuda para la pandemia.Para llenar ese vacío, el Concejo del DC aprobó una legislación que requiere que la alcaldesa use alrededor de $38 millones para aumentar esos beneficios durante nueve meses si el Distrito tuviera un superávit presupuestario. El Distrito terminó el último año fiscal con superávit, pero Bowser no había aceptado hacerlo hasta el miércoles por la noche.La directora Laura Zeilinger del Departamento de Servicios Humanos del DC (DHS, en inglés) confirmó el aumento temporal y dijo en parte: “Aunque todavía existen presiones fiscales y adm...Britney Spears dice que ‘nunca volverá’ a la industria musical por su cuenta, pero que ha escrito ‘más de 20 canciones’ para otros
