It’s that time of the year again: San Diego Comic-Con. In 2023, the event is running from Thursday, July 20 through Sunday, July 23, and while some things are up in the air, there are some TV panels on the schedule you won’t want to miss. With the writers and actors strikes (the latter of which means they can’t sit on panels at SDCC promoting past or current work), it’s unclear just who will be in attendance; most of the panel announcements don’t include any participants just yet. Marvel, Lucasfilm, HBO, Universal, Sony, and Netflix are among those without a…
A sixth person is in long-term remission from HIV following a stem cell transplant, scientists reported this week at a major HIV research conference — but the patient’s case differs dramatically from earlier ones, and it cannot yet be explained.”What has happened to me is wonderful and magical,” the anonymous patient said in a statement. “We can now focus on the future.”The man, referred to as the “Geneva patient,” had both cancer and HIV at the time of his transplant procedure. He’d been living with HIV since the early 1990s, when he began taking anti-HIV medication, known as antiretroviral therapy…
Courtesy Warner Bros. Pictures In Barbie Land, what happens when you’re not perfect? By Natalie Michie Date July 28, 2023 Everyone who has played with dolls has a Weird Barbie origin story. Maybe you tried to give your doll some layers with dull kitchen scissors. Perhaps you were going for a sophisticated makeover by colouring her lips red with Sharpie. Before you knew it, your Stereotypical Barbie became Weird Barbie, and she was relegated to the bottom of your toy box. In the Barbie movie, we finally see her side of things. And it’s possibly the most important perspective to…
This story originally appeared in Hakai and is part of the Climate Desk collaboration.In the stark sheep pastures of Ireland’s Maumturk Mountains, just a few gnarled trees cling to the hillside, twisted and bent by decades facing down the raw Atlantic winds. Now this unlikely landscape, where native woodlands have been gone for almost 1,000 years, is at the heart of a bold plan to bring back long-forgotten rainforests.The nonprofit Hometree, started by a group of surfers, wants to buy 800 hectares of land across eight sites in western Ireland to reforest over the next four years. Then it wants…
After the return of guitarist John Frusciante and the success of Californication, what would Red Hot Chili Peppers do for an encore? On July 9, 2002, we found out as the band released their eighth studio album, By the Way.And while Californication had Frusciante getting back into the flow with the band, By the Way found the more confident guitarist really putting his musical stamp on the music. “Like Californication, writing By the Way has been one of the happiest times of my life,” Frusciante told Total Guitar. “It’s been a chance to just keep on writing better songs and improving my…

New work by scientists in the U.S. and China shows how a fertilized egg cell, or zygote, hits ‘reset’ so that the newly formed embryo can develop according to its own genetic program. The study was published July 17 in Nature. It has been known for some time that the genome of a newly fertilized egg cell is inactive and has to be woken up, said Richard Schultz, research professor at the University of California, Davis, School of Veterinary Medicine and a corresponding author on the paper. This step is called zygote genome activation. “For the embryo to develop, the…

Early in her astronomy Ph.D. program, Aomawa Shields found herself without words. She had an undergraduate degree from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology but had left science for 11 years—a full solar cycle—and now she was back. It was her turn to present scientific findings to her peers, but Shields, who also had an M.F.A. in acting, developed a terrible case of stage fright. Getting ready for her talk, she was too shaky to tie her shoes. “I guess that was the closest thing I’ve ever had to a panic attack,” Shields recalls. Helping her tie her shoes, her husband…

By Natalie Michie Date June 14, 2023 At the 2013 Oscars, pop culture hit peak Jennifer Lawrence.

Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman on Thursday said that the 5G technology in India is completely indigenous, one that is not imported from somewhere else and is the country’s own product. “The story is yet to reach the public.

On Wednesday (July 26), Selena Gomez shared a sweet birthday message for her longtime friend Francia Raisa, eight months after the two had a public falling-out. “Happiest of birthdays to this special human being,” Gomez wrote alongside three photos of the pair in happier times. “No matter where life takes us, I love you.” In addition to being close friends, Raisa — who turned 35 on Wednesday — also donated a kidney to Gomez back in 2017 after the singer/actress suffered lupus-related organ damage. But their tight bond was tested late last year when Raisa — an actress on How…

The “Man in the Moon,” the dark area of dried lava that looks like a face smiling from the lunar surface, may be older than anyone thought, scientists say. The consequences could echo through the entire solar system. “It’s like changing the clock for all solar system objects,” says Stephanie Werner, a planetary scientist at the University of Oslo in Norway and a co-author of the new research, which she presented on July 14 at the Goldschmidt Geochemistry Conference in Lyon, France. The finding is currently in press in the Planetary Science Journal. Unlike Earth, where plate tectonics and biological…

Microsoft wrote last week that its “investigations have not detected any other use of this pattern by other actors and Microsoft has taken steps to block related abuse.” But if the stolen signing key could have been used to breach other services, even if it wasn’t used this way in the recent incident, the finding has significant implications for the security of Microsoft’s cloud services and other platforms.The attack “seems to have a broader scope than originally assumed,” the Wiz researchers wrote.
