Located at Mount Hotzvim in Jerusalem, a large quarry has been
under excavation, exposing more information on the Second
Temple time period when Jesus walked the Holy Land.

Archaeologists with the Israel Antiquities Authority excavated
the area that covers about 3,500 square meters, forming part
of a large field of quarries, according to a press release from
the Israel Antiquities Authority.

They have uncovered dozens of building stones of various
sizes, different paths and tools.

A stone tool identified with the Jewish population in the
Second Temple was discovered in the quarry located in Jerusalem.

On August 19, 1909, the first race was held at the Indianapolis
Motor Speedway, now the home of the world’s most famous
motor racing competition, the Indianapolis 500.

Built on 328 acres of farmland five miles northwest of
Indianapolis, Indiana, the speedway was started by local
businessmen as a testing facility for Indiana’s growing
automobile industry.         

       
The idea was that occasional races at the track would pit cars
from different manufacturers against each other. After seeing
what these cars could do, spectators would presumably head
down to the showroom of their choice to get a closer look.

In that first five-mile race, 12,000 spectators watched Austrian
engineer Louis Schwitzer win with an average speed of 57.4
miles per hour. The track’s surface of crushed rock and tar
proved a disaster, breaking up in a number of places and
causing the deaths of two drivers, two mechanics and two
spectators.
