Apple TV+ is a solid streaming service with a couple of very good shows and even an Academy Award winner for Best Picture. With no new Ted Lasso episodes in the immediate future, though, they could definitely use a new signature program, something big and splashy.

The first trailer for the show is below, and it very strongly connects Monarch to the recent Godzilla (and Kong) films, and the…

Credit: Seth Moore Minnesota saw a 58% decline of the moose population in the northeastern part of the state between 2006 and 2017. A primary driver of the decline is brainworm, a parasite that affects the animal’s nervous system ultimately leading to paralysis and death. Researchers from the University of Minnesota and the Grand Portage Band of Lake Superior Chippewa recently discovered evidence that moose in Minnesota consume species of gastropods—slugs and snails—which are known hosts for the brainworm parasite (Parelaphostrongylus tenuis). Although consumption of gastropods has long been considered the mode by which moose become infected with brainworm, this…

Tensions were high in the bathroom line during Morgan Wallen’s concert at Pittsburgh’s PNC Park on Wednesday night, where an all-out brawl broke out and spilled into a porta-potty. Based on the footage that surfaced online, it appears that the fight was set off after one woman accused another of cutting in line to use the toilet. After some shoving back and forth, one woman got the upper hand and pushed her opponent into a porta-potty that was just being vacated by an innocent bystander. Reinforcements quickly showed up, with one woman in a blue romper and white cowboy boots coming…
The horror genre plays on tropes, remixing and reimagining familiar story beats and archetypes for new audiences with each film. There’s always a killer hiding in the basement or the shed, a supernatural force that requires a blood sacrifice, a jump scare coming as soon as the main character rounds a corner. One of the most popular and recognizable horror tropes is the Final Girl, a character archetype that shows up over and over, particularly in slasher films, as the last survivor of the movie’s bloody climax.The Final Girl is typically the least likely survivor: She’s nonviolent (until she has to be),…

Research veterinarian Ashley Reeves had a rough week in mid-August. She had hoped to artificially inseminate ocelots at three zoos as part of a project to save these small, elegant spotted cats in the wild. But one female failed to ovulate, another had complications with her egg, and sperm for the third had lost much of its motility—its ability to travel into the oviduct and fertilize an egg—during shipment to the zoo, all of which made pregnancy less likely. Although Reeves finished the procedures, she won’t know for sure if they worked until another month passes. “What we are trying…

Credit: University of Sheffield Household fruit and vegetable production, in allotments and gardens, could be key to a healthy and food-secure population, a new study from the University of Sheffield has found. The study followed household food-growers over the course of a year to assess their production, purchase, donation and waste of fruit and vegetables. It found those who grow their own can produce more than half of the vegetables (51%) and 20% of the fruit they consume annually. As well as providing sustainable access to fresh fruit and vegetables, the study also found household food growers ate 6.3 portions…

Never mind the truth — what’s really “out there” is the fact that it’s already been 30 years since The X-Files debuted on Fox. In that first episode — which, as we’ve already observed, is peak 1990s — medical doctor Dana Scully (Gillian Anderson) meets FBI outcast Fox Mulder (David Duchovny) and joins his “X-Files” investigations, seeking to explain the unexplained. Fast-forward 30 years, and Chris Carter’s The X-Files has 11 seasons, two big-screen movies, a spin-off series, and a possible reboot to its name.

IMAGINE a world in which admission to the top universities – to Oxford or Cambridge, or to Harvard or Yale – were limited to people who were very tall. Very soon, tall people would conclude that it is the natural order of things for the taller to succeed and the shorter to fail. This is the world we live in. Not with taller and smaller people (although taller people often are at an advantage). But there is one measure by which, in many places, we tend to decide who has access to the best opportunities and a seat at the…

Besides nutrients entering lakes and rivers, which can spur the proliferation of algae and cyanobacteria, there are other factors that can trigger major blooms. Northern Ireland just had its wettest July on record—potentially accelerating the runoff of nutrients into bodies of water including Lough Neagh, says Reid. The lough is also 1 degree Celsius warmer today than it was just 30 years ago. That could benefit cyanobacteria over competing species, including algae, says Don Anderson, a senior scientist in the biology department at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution in Massachusetts.“When it gets too hot, other species don’t grow, or grow slowly,”…
