Humans — not glaciers — transported Stonehenge’s megaliths across Great Britain to their current location in southern England, a new study confirms.Scientists have believed for decades that the 5,000-year-old monument’s iconic stones came from what is now Wales and even as far as Scotland, but there is still debate as to how the stones arrived at Salisbury Plain in southern England.Now, an analysis of microscopic mineral grains from rivers around Stonehenge has revealed that glaciers didn’t reach into the region during the last ice age (2.6 million to 11,700 years ago), refuting an idea known as the “glacial transport theory”…

Grief never really goes away, but its initial impact takes many forms. Some people are paralysed for months on end. With others, it doesn’t properly hit them until later. For some, our self-medicated methods for processing loss in the early days involve pursuing complicated projects, designed to distract us from the overwhelming mental noise.Such a project is what the author Helen Macdonald threw themself into following the sudden death of their father, the renowned photojournalist Alisdair Macdonald, from a heart attack in 2007. Their experiences are detailed in the award-winning memoir ​‘H is for Hawk’ from 2014. It’s worth mentioning that while…

For the past few years, Jennifer Lawrence has held her position as one of the fashion industry’s most referenced street-style stars. Consistently stepping out in chic silhouettes infused with her own distinctive styling flair, every outing feels like a fresh addition to my mood board.After following her style evolution so closely, I’ve noticed one key detail that sets her apart from the rest of us: Jennifer relies far less on jeans.

The Qrevo Curv 2 Flow is also optimized for hardwood floors. SmartPlan had no trouble automatically distinguishing the tile of my bathroom and laundry room from the hardwood of my kitchen. However, it occasionally relegated my carpeted living room and den to a sad Default status, rather than Carpet, and did not lift the mopping pad. In two weeks, I caught the Qrevo mopping the carpet once or twice.The internal routing to the docking station’s dust bag also appears to have been optimized for liquids, which means that solids, like dog hair, tend to clump up inside. I forgot to…

What’s the story behind the story? What inspired you to write The Exodus Rush (The Vethrak Requiem Book 1)? The Exodus Rush was born out of a question that wouldn’t leave me alone: what happens after survival stops being enough? A lot of science fiction focuses on the moment of collapse or invasion. I wanted to explore what comes next, when humanity is scattered, wounded, and forced to decide who it will become under pressure. The story was inspired by watching how people respond to long seasons of crisis, both personally and globally, and asking how those same dynamics would…

In what is one of the cruelest policies passed in this era of rampant book censorship, and one that flies in the face of long-documented research on the tools that best reduce recidivism, Arkansas will ban all physical books, magazines, and newspapers coming into prisons for individuals starting February 1. This is the strictest ban on sending reading material to prisons in the country. Advocates worry this will launch similar efforts nationwide. “If it gets enacted in Arkansas, then Texas and other states kind of ping pong off each other when it comes to these draconian policies,” explains Kaleem Nazeem,…

Fashion has a funny way of making things that were once seemingly very dated relevant again with little to no explanation, and suddenly, we find ourselves falling for a skirt length or denim cut that months prior, we’d never have considered wearing. Case in point: Flannel shirts, which, in 2026, can be seen on even the most stylish and sophisticated of dressers, from L.A. and New York all the way to fashion cities across Scandinavia. Brands like The Row, Bottega Veneta, and Calvin Klein have all taken to incorporating the top style into their recent collections, thus turning flannel shirts…

Ultraloq Bolt Fingerprint for $200: I have now tested three different Ultraloq smart locks over a year and a half, and while I think the company offers excellent hardware for the money, there are just a few too many software quirks that put these locks a rung below our top picks. I first began with the Bolt Fingerprint, which has been the most reliable of all the Ultraloq smart locks. If you have a standard door with a borehole for the dead bolt, it’ll be quick to install (Ultraloq has a Thick Door Kit ($10)). I initially had several issues…

We go to the gym regularly, diligently track our workouts and fill our schedules with fitness classes two weeks in advance. But then reality sets in. Life gets busy, motivation drops, and our fitness goals start fading into the background. For many, that ultimate surrender comes around ‘Blue Monday’ — the third Monday in January. This is when we tend to crumble under the weight of unrealistic expectations and fading motivation, and finally consign…
