Iowa State researchers have developed a new procedure to capture more information from eyewitnesses during police investigations and better detect a suspect’s guilt or innocence. During a typical eyewitness lineup, police display a “six pack” of photos. One is the police suspect. The other five are “fillers;” they fit the description of the culprit, but the investigators know they are innocent. The witness selects the person who best matches their memory or rejects the whole lineup if they don’t think the culprit is present. Investigators following best practices then ask the witness to rate how confident they are in their…
Hello Beautiful by Ann Napolitano Today, Oprah’s Book Club announced the 100th selection since the book club’s launch in 1996. The latest pick is Hello Beautiful (The Dial Press) byAnn Napolitano. Oprah announced her 100th Book Club selection on CBS Mornings, alongside author Ann Napolitano, where she discussed the impact of the book club over the past 27 years, and why this selection means so much to her.

A person’s native language may shape how their brain builds connections between different hubs of information processing, a new brain scan study reveals. The observed differences in these language network structures were related to linguistic characteristics in the native languages of the study participants: German and Arabic. “So the difference we find there shouldn’t be due to different ethnic background but really because of the language we [they] speak,” Alfred Anwander (opens in new tab), a researcher at the Max Planck Institute for Human Cognitive and Brain Sciences in Germany who led the study, told Live Science. The research was published online…
On Accused Season 1 Episode , Jason Ritter plays Jack Fletcher, a teacher who shares a close relationship with his students. He’s the teacher everyone loves to confide in, but with society as it is today, that’s like pouring gasoline on a burning flame. Jason Ritter is good in anything he does, and he’ll tear at your heartstrings as the teacher with a heart of gold. Wrenn Schmidt plays Jack’s wife, Britney, and in our exclusive clip, she seems wary of how far he’ll go to reach his students. Take a look: There are so many red flags in that…
One thing is clear, and it’s that 2023 is reverting back to the classic penny loafer–sleek, chic and understated (and with less of the bells and whistles of the 2022 take). Chunky soles are traded in for slimmer silhouettes, and tassels, studs and embellisment are shelved for luxe hardware. Good news then, for the original Gucci Horsebit Loafer that is enjoying a fashionable renaissance. It’s also the perfect moment for a well-timed new launch from Jimmy Choo, as the Diamond Tilda Loafer is brand new for the brand and already selling out in some sizes (more colourways too please, Jimmy Choo!) Choosing…
Apple’s head of hardware design, Evans Hankey, is leaving the iPhone maker three years after taking the job, creating a significant hole at the top of a company famous for its slick-looking products, according to people with knowledge of the matter. Hankey was named to the post in 2019 to replace Jony Ive, the company’s iconic design chief for two decades. Before taking her current role as vice president of industrial design, Hankey spent several years at Apple reporting to Ive. Since then, she has reported to Chief Operating Officer Jeff Williams. The departure was announced inside the Cupertino, California-based technology giant…
Just a couple of months before the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame unveils its Class of 2023, Courtney Love has accused the foundation of misogyny in an op-ed for The Guardian published Friday titled Why are women so marginalised by the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame?. In the essay, Love cited writer Jessica Hopper, who recently calculated that only 8.48% of Rock Hall inductees are women: “When the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame started in 1983, you would have thought they might want to begin with Sister Rosetta, with those first chords that chimed the songbook we were…
ComingSoon spoke with Champions director Bobby Farrelly about the upcoming sports comedy movie. Farrelly discussed the difficulty of modern comedy and his thoughts on Jim Carrey’s retirement. Champions is set to release in theaters nationwide on March 10. “Woody Harrelson stars in the hilarious and heartwarming story of a former minor-league basketball coach who, after a series of missteps, is ordered by the court to manage a team of players with intellectual disabilities,” reads the film’s synopsis. “He soon realizes that despite his doubts, together, this team can go further than they ever imagined.” Jonathan Sim: Champions is very much a movie about the…
You must first internalize that it’s just not that big of a deal. People have different tastes; if someone doesn’t like the book you recommended, so what! Maybe they have bad taste. Maybe it’s not a reflection of you and everything you thought you believed about yourself, like that you have good taste in books and interesting opinions on literature and a thoughtful way of imagining what other people might enjoy. Maybe, it, um, says more about them than you? Or maybe it means you have just ruined a lifelong friendship and not only will this person never trust your…
Honey bees sucking on a flower. Credit: Wang Zhengwei In a study published in PNAS, researchers from the Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden (XTBG) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Freie Universität Berlin and Rutgers University showed that the dance of the returning honeybee forager conveys the direction and distance of the food source from the hive to the honeycomb surface, a kind of map—a representation of where the food source is. The dance communication is much richer than previously thought, decoding the vector information into a map-like representation of the explored space, according to the researchers. Honeybees (Apis mellifera carnica)…
Eva Longoria’s comments about working on Young and the Restless have caught the attention of her former co-star, Eric Braeden. The drama started when Longoria appeared in the latest installment of HBO Max’s Talking to Chris Wallace? and things took a turn when the host shared footage of the actress playing Isabella on the Young and the Restless. Longoria was clearly caught off-guard by the clip but spoke a bit about her time on the show. “When I got Young & the Restless, it didn’t pay enough for me to live off being an actor,” the Desperate Housewives alum shared.…

At its most untamed, fandom poisons. It contorts logic into blind worship. It bites and stings and slices anything in its path. It gnaws on tendon meat, a wide ruby-red smile, unkind and uncaring about its target, its prey. Fandom crushes whole and curdles into cancel culture. It’s all mob instincts. It’s collective brute force. It’s “Stand on our side or get whacked,” Soprano style. In the most extreme cases online, fandom asks: What won’t you do for the person or group or thing you love the most? For Dre (Dominique Fishback), the answer is a no-brainer. She’ll do whatever she has…

The earthquake that has destroyed parts of Türkiye and Syria is a tragedy for millions of families, including my own. One of the worst hit regions—around the ancient city of Antioch—is where my father’s family has lived for generations. This disaster has killed thousands of people and affected millions of others. Now that the last presumed survivors have been found, the region faces many other problems, including enormous amounts of debris from collapsed buildings, roads, and the like. This material is estimated to weigh up to 210 million tons—enough to cover Washington, D.C. four feet deep, or build a mound…

Picture yourself in the emergency department in desperate need of acute care. If you are lucky, you quickly check in with a triage nurse who takes your vitals and registers your complaint—before sending you back to the lobby. Hours pass and it’s likely you still have not been treated. You are surrounded by other sick people, some with contagious diseases. As the clock ticks, many people leave, taking a risk to manage their illness on their own. Finally, someone takes you to the treatment area, but it’s only to wait again surrounded by what seems to be utter chaos before…
There’s always so much to love about crossovers, especially with procedural dramas: an intense case that requires characters from more than one show to solve it, seeing agents traveling to other locations, and, of course, seeing the casts together. TV Insider has an exclusive first look at that last one. In the photos, you can see cast members from FBI, FBI: Most Wanted, and FBI: International during breaks in filming the upcoming global crossover event, “Imminent Threat.” In the one above, taken in New York City, FBI‘s Katherine Renee Kane (Tiffany Wallace), John Boyd (Stuart Scola), Missy Peregrym (Maggie Bell),…

Every WIRED reader is familiar with that constant question: Wait for new technology, or buy now? No matter how good a gadget is, there will almost certainly be something better arriving soon. Manufacturers work out the kinks and prices fall. Figuring out which new technologies are worth the early adopter tax, and which to pass on until they improve, is a real challenge. Even shopping for something as utilitarian as a Wi-Fi router is a minefield. Wi-Fi 6 is an easy minimum recommendation for most folks right now. But perhaps you are eyeing the enhanced speed and performance of the newly…

This is a theory that has been floating around for a while, but it’s undeniable: The rings of Kang’s Quantum City from Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania bear an unmistakable resemblance to Shang-Chi’s Ten Rings, as well as numerous other mystical artifacts strewn across the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

For the first time, scientists may have discovered indirect evidence that large amounts of invisible dark matter surround black holes. The discovery, if confirmed, could represent a major breakthrough in dark matter research.Dark matter makes up around 85% of all matter in the universe, but it is almost completely invisible to astronomers. This is because, unlike the matter that comprises stars, planets and everything else around us, dark matter doesn’t interact with light and can’t be seen.Fortunately, dark matter does interact gravitationally, enabling researchers to infer the presence of dark matter by looking at its gravitational effects on ordinary matter…
Charlotte Flair and Rhea Ripley are counting down to their massive rematch at WrestleMania over the weekend of April 1-2. It’s not the first time the duo have met in the ring, of course.

Three years later it’s Ripley facing Flair for the SmackDown title in a marquee battle at WrestleMania 39 before a packed SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles.

This year, the NCAA is hoping to keep on-campus host sites as neutral as possible by fining a host for playing traditional hype songs, such as Virginia Tech playing “Enter Sandman” as it usually does during women’s basketball games at Cassell Coliseum. Virginia Tech started playing the Metallica hit back in 2000 during the season opener for football at Lane Stadium. While…
