Back in 1983, on a break from Queen, guitarist Brian May pulled in a number of his musical friends for a new project. Among them was Eddie Van Halen, whose band would become the biggest thing in rock over the next year with their 1984 album. While this collaborative project didn’t reach the commercial highs of their respective bands, interest has continued to grow over the years, and now a 40th anniversary box set reissue digging into those sessions en route to release under the moniker, Brian May + Friends: Star Fleet Project.“It’s all here. ALL of it. Every note…

The recent Jeopardy! Masters tournament, which was won by James Holzhauer, allowed the show’s producers to try out some new things. But not all these format changes will be sticking around. In addition to introducing a soccer-style points-based format for a win, Masters let viewers see where the Daily Doubles were hidden on the board. However, the latter idea might be a one-and-done deal, as the show’s executive producer Michael Davies admits wasn’t a fan. “[Masters] was every bit as good as I hoped it was going to be, and I think we can make it better in the future,”…
Image Source: Mert Alas & Marcus Piggott The spring/summer season is here, and that means along with fashion trends, popular colors, sunglasses styles — and a whole new wishlist to shop — there’s an entirely new set of fashion ad campaigns. Each year, designers offer up an inspiring crop of campaigns that mark the new season’s aesthetic, from the endurance of ’90s nostalgia to the emergence of mermaidcore.

“EINSTEIN attacks quantum theory.” That was the headline in The New York Times on 4 May 1935. The world’s most famous scientist and two collaborators had discovered what they saw as a fatal flaw at the heart of our greatest theory of nature. They had found that particles separated by kilometres seemed to be able to interact instantaneously with each other. Albert Einstein called it “spooky action at a distance”. Even though he had helped lay the foundations of quantum theory, Einstein felt it must be missing something. That spookiness just didn’t feel right – there must be something we…

Sometimes you romanticize something so much that you set unrealistic expectations for yourself, and a slight deviation from your vision always disappoints. The group got a glimpse at what their college futures might hold on Never Have I Ever Season 4 Episode 5 after a class trip took them to New York, and they visited their prospective schools. Most things were a great shock, but none as shocking as Devi learning that her high school idol had flunked out of college. Never meet your idols has never rung truer than at that moment. It is pretty easy to theorize what Devi thought…
Cage structures made with nanoparticles could be a route toward making organized nanostructures with mixed materials, and researchers at the University of Michigan have shown how to achieve this through computer simulations. The finding could open new avenues for photonic materials that manipulate light in ways that natural crystals can’t. It also showcased an unusual effect that the team is calling entropy compartmentalization. “We are developing new ways to structure matter across scales, discovering the possibilities and what forces we can use,” said Sharon Glotzer, the Anthony C. Lembke Department Chair of Chemical Engineering, who led the study published today…
Although we adore and envy natural redheads like Lindsay Lohan and Nicole Kidman, if there was ever any doubt about rising power of red hair, you only have to take a look at your Instagram feed to see just how many many other celebrities have been giving the shade a spin this season. Case in point: Dua Lipa’s fringe-forward foray into ginger, and the brief moment that Kim Kardashian’s followed fiery suit. Even red carpet’s favourite darling Zendaya has worn her hair in a dyed auburn red of late. Whether you prefer a chic straight bob or a sky-high ‘fro, red hair will add even more personality to your…
Netflix on Tuesday announced that users will be able to transfer profiles when they wish to transfer them from an existing account to a new one, starting today. The move comes after the company’s recent financial woes triggered a loss of subscribers for the first time in over a decade. Netflix had also recently started charging users for accessing their accounts on devices outside of a single home address. The proposed additional fee, was reportedly perceived as an attempt to monetise the common practice of sharing passwords. The company had also announced a shift in strategy, that saw the over-the-top…
Christopher Sweet/EyeEm/getty images I AM a firm believer that you can stargaze anywhere. In fact, a few years ago, I wrote a book about stargazing from cities based on that very premise. My argument is that stargazing can sometimes be easier to do from urban areas, especially for people who are new to the pastime and want to learn their way around the night sky. In a dark sky filled with stars, you can be overwhelmed by the sheer number of them and can lose the patterns of the constellations. Having said that, I am very concerned about light pollution,…

After a few disappointing successive episodes, The Blacklist Season 10 Episode 17 broke away from that format and delivered an hour worth of The Blacklist name. Raymond offered a case that was a significant upgrade from the one the Task Force had previously worked on. Elsewhere, Arthur Hudson used his cunning to find the scarce information about the Task Force, and with solid skills of bluffing and making great inferences from observations, he hit the nail on the head. The Task Force had needed a win many episodes ago, and their win was bigger than they could have anticipated. This had been…

This rediscovery of self-fit flawlessly—like the perfect pair of jeans. I…
This week, Surgeon General Vivek Murthy issued a long-overdue message warning Americans what they already know: Social media is harming kids. But looking through the 19-page advisory, the surgeon general’s solutions appear potentially more dangerous than these pariah platforms themselves. He is pushing for a critically misguided policy that many state legislatures and regulators have already enacted, a mistake that threatens to undo what little internet privacy we have left. To protect kids from social media, he argues, platforms and lawmakers must enforce age minimums. This is tantamount to requiring ID to go online.Thirty years ago this July, an iconic New Yorker…
Living in an almshouse can boost the longevity of its residents by as much as two-and-a-half years compared to their counterparts in the general population, according to a new Bayes Business School report. Almshouses provide affordable community housing for local people in housing need. They are generally designed around a courtyard to provide a ‘community spirit’, that is synonymous with the almshouse movement. They offer independent living but provide friendship and support when needed. Analysing up to 100 years’ worth of residents’ records from various almshouses in England, the research suggests that living in these communities can reduce the negative…
Water From Your Eyes compose freaky pop music out of helter-skelter beats, pitch-bent guitars, weltering synth glitches, signal-jammed earworms, and vocalist Rachel Brown’s sometimes chanted, sometimes chatty, always oddly catchy cadences. Preceded by “Barley,” the alt-pop artists’ sixth studio album and Matador debut twists familiar sounds into horribly misshapen, Beefheartian symphonies that nonetheless make sense of our broken times and minds.

Neurological conditions can release a torrent of new creativity in a few people as if opening some mysterious floodgate. Auras of migraine and epilepsy may have influenced a long list of artists, including Pablo Picasso, Vincent van Gogh, Edvard Munch, Giorgio de Chirico, Claude Monet and Georges Seurat. Traumatic brain injury (TBI) can result in original thinking and newfound artistic drive. Emergent creativity is also a rare feature of Parkinson’s disease. But this burst of creative ability is especially true of frontotemporal dementia (FTD). Although a few rare cases of FTD are linked to improvements in verbal creativity, such as…
No three words can vex summer-travel packing more than “just in case.” Taking more than you need, just in case, will always end up weighing you down. But you can avoid “just in case” entirely by packing light and smart, with curated selections targeted for exactly what you’ll be doing and where you’re going.Consider the versatility of a piece and how it can be used over the duration of the trip. Skip the cute puffer vest, just in case it gets cold that one night in Doha (we’re not speaking from any recent experience, of course), or the sequined cocktail…
The Monitor is a weekly column devoted to everything happening in the WIRED world of culture, from movies to memes, TV to Twitter.The date chiseled on the headstone will be May 23, 2023. That’s the day HBO Max—a streaming service with a name that would be inscrutable if it didn’t have “HBO” in it—became just Max. The day that, as the Max news was trending online and the Max app was glitching, Netflix quietly attempted to begin limiting who could share passwords. It was the day streaming died. Perhaps this statement is wildly hyperbolic. But amidst what seems like a panicked time in the streaming…
Miley Cyrus‘ plans for Endless Summer Vacation apparently do not include another tour, according to a new interview with British Vogue. “It’s been a minute,” the “Flowers” singer acknowledged about her live hiatus before reflecting on her last headlining arena show during 2014’s “Bangerz” world tour. “I kind of looked at it as more of a question. And I can’t. Not only ‘can’t,’ because ‘can’t’ is your capability, but my desire. Do I want to live my life for anyone else’s pleasure or fulfillment other than my own?” She later shared her preference for performing to intimate audiences consisting of her…
