As a complete fragrance fanatic, some of the most-spritzed perfumes in my collection are by Diptyque. The much-loved Philosykos, with its green, figgy notes, is a beauty editor favorite. And for evening, I love the draw of Eau Capitale’s mysterious rose and patchouli notes, one of the best long-lasting perfumes for a night out. In fact, they are probably two of my most-complimented scents from my fifty-plus-strong collection of perfumes (I told you I was a bit obsessed). When I think about it, I don’t think I’ve met a Diptyque fragrance that I didn’t like—and that goes for the candles too, which I still buy…

Anna McCleary had her daughter in October 2019. McCleary, who works at a law firm in Chicago, had just returned from her maternity leave in early 2020 when the COVID pandemic hit. She and her husband found themselves working from home without access to day care or other help. “We were just thrown into the middle of this sort of nightmare scenario of [having] all of your responsibilities, with none of the safety net that you expect when you have a kid,” McCleary says. She and her husband had always planned on having two children, but as the pandemic dragged…

Wondering what Robert Downey Jr.’s been up to since he wrapped up his run as the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s Iron Man? It looks like he’s gotten very heavy into car culture, and now he’s made a TV show about it.Titled Downey’s Dream Cars, the series follows the former Marvel star as he buys and fixes up classic automobiles along with a team of experts. But rather than restoring them to their original condition, he‘s trying to modernize them and make their old gas-guzzling parts more climate-friendly. (That actually sounds like something Tony Stark would do, so maybe this concept is a good fit…

We previously rounded up TV shows that got canceled after one episode — remember when the now-defunct streaming platform DC Universe sent Swamp Thing back to the depths after its Season 1 premiere? — and now it’s time to reminisce about shows almost as unlucky. The titles below, at least, survived twice as long… but, yes, they got the boot after Episode 2. From the critically-acclaimed Lone Star to the controversial Work It, here’s a selection of two-episode wonders and two-episode blunders. Read The Full Article Here
Nuclear clocks could allow scientists to probe the fundamental forces of the universe in the future. LMU researchers have made a crucial advance in this area as part of an international collaboration. Atomic clocks measure time so precisely that they gain or lose less than a second every 30 billion years. With so-called nuclear clocks, it would be possible to measure time even more accurately. Furthermore, they would enable scientists to delve deeper into fundamental physical phenomena. “We’re talking about the forces that hold the world together at its core,” says LMU physicist Professor Peter Thirolf, who has been researching…
Chlöe is taking some well-deserved time off. On May 22, the 24-year-old singer-songwriter shared a blissful video from her tropical getaway, featuring all of the thong-style swimsuits and vacation outfits she brought with her.

Emerging From the Dark by Terence Ang Many people have no idea about a stroke and its consequences. Terence Ang was one such person – and never bothered to learn about it. “I had the misconception,” he says, “that it only happened to old people. And as long as I maintained a clean bill of health, I was safe. How wrong I was.” Since then, Ang has become something of an evangelist for the disease, having written two books on the subject, spoken at a major international conference and doing what he can to educate people on the effects and…

I HAVE seen my future and it is full of beans, both literally and metaphorically. As well as upping my bean count, there will be a lot of vegetables, no meat, long periods of hunger and hardly any alcohol. But in return for this dietary discipline, my future will also be significantly longer and sprightlier. I am 52 and, on my current diet, can expect to live another 29 years. But if I change now, I could gain an extra decade and live in good health into my 90s. This “longevity diet” isn’t just the latest fad, it is the…

By Lauren Knowles Date May 17, 2023 With the arrival of Netflix’s Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story, we’ve been once again swept up into a Bridgerton fantasy — one in which the tale of Queen Charlotte’s ascension to the throne is accompanied by all the enchanting elements of pomp, pageantry, and risqué romance that we love about the original series.

These problems come from the top. Machine learning research is overwhelmingly male and white, a demographic world away from the diverse communities it purports to help. And Big Tech firms don’t just offer online diversions—they hold enormous amounts of power to shape events in the real world.Birhane and others have branded this “digital colonialism”—arguing that the power of Big Tech rivals the old colonial empires. Its harms will not affect us all equally, she argues: As technology is exported to the global south, it carries embedded Western norms and philosophies along with it. It’s sold as a way of helping…
WHETHER it is a bracing sea breeze, the gentle lapping of waves or the glint of sunshine on a rippling surface, there is something deeply restorative about being in or near water. The Victorians knew this, prescribing sea air as a treatment for melancholy. So did the French, who, for centuries, sent people with ailments to natural springs. Now scientists are catching up. We recognise the benefits of being out in nature more keenly than ever these days. Hundreds of studies that catalogue the positive effects are being translated into health policies and urban redevelopment projects that aim to nudge…

But it’s not the Captain James Kirk we remember; that one…
