Message in a Matchbox by Sara Fashandi It all started during the author’s family reunion in the summer of 2006, when she discovered an invaluable treasure: her oldest brother’s memories of growing up. His name is Mohsen, and he was born in Tehran, Iran, to poor, struggling young parents. As early as age six, he figured out how to be creative and make money to fill his empty stomach. As he related his memories, the author understood what made him the fascinating, jovial, and hardworking man he became. He had a calm confidence, and felt no need to impress anyone.…
Think of bringing a pot of water to the boil: As the temperature reaches the boiling point, bubbles form in the water, burst and evaporate as the water boils. This continues until there is no more water changing phase from liquid to steam. This is roughly the idea of what happened in the very early universe, right after the Big Bang, 13.7 billion years ago. The idea comes from particle physicists Martin S. Sloth from the Center for Cosmology and Particle Physics Phenomenology at University of Southern Denmark and Florian Niedermann from the Nordic Institute for Theoretical Physics (NORDITA) in…
The CW’s reality TV ambitions are coming into focus. Deadline reported Thursday that the canceled HBO Max reality series FBoy Island has landed at the Nexstar-owned fifth broadcaster. On top of that, The CW is also set to launch a spinoff — FGirl Island. STX had been shopping the format to U.S. buyers since HBO Max canceled FBoy Island following its second season. The cancellation was not thought to be related to performance-based, with the axe dropping around the time Warner Bros. Discovery was shelving projects to save money following the widely-publicized merger. Despite The CW being in line to…
While Kylie Jenner has covered many a magazine, Vanity Fair hasn’t made the list — until now. The 25-year-old beauty mogul is the Italian publication’s March 2023 cover star. And she stuns on not one, but three versions of said cover for the high-fashion glossy. Photographed by duo Luigi & Iango, Jenner wears two distinct borrowed-from-the-boys tailored looks, and poses nude on the third, with her arms wrapped around her torso as she stares directly into the camera. In one interior shot, Jenner goes for the pants-less trend, wearing a bodysuit and sculptural black jacket from Schiaparelli Haute Couture by…

2023 is a hell of a rush.It has already given us a movie about a bear that takes cocaine. (Called, somewhat appropriately, Cocaine Bear.) Against all odds, Cocaine Bear has just become one of the year’s first surprise hits at the box office, grossing an impressive $23.1 million in its opening weekend. (You know what you can buy with $23.1 million? Me neither.)Well, that sort of success gets people’s attention — especially the makers of “mockbusters” over at The Asylum, who specialize in (lovingly) ripping off big-time Hollywood movies with lesser stars and smaller budgets. Over the weekend, as Cocaine Bear was getting…
A beautiful and ghostly “butterfly” has launched from the sun, unfurling its ethereal, gossamer wings in two expanding arcs of plasma. Astronomers spotted the unusual solar eruption, known as a coronal mass ejection (CME), exploding from the farside of the sun Friday (March 10), according to spaceweather.com.CMEs originate from sunspots, regions on the sun’s surface where powerful magnetic fields, created by the flow of electrical charges, form knots before abruptly snapping. The resulting release of energy can eject gigantic plumes of solar material from the sun’s surface out into the solar system. Once launched, CMEs travel millions of miles per hour,…

A new ‘outside-the-box’ method of teaching artificial intelligence (AI) models to make decisions could provide hope for finding new therapeutic methods for cancer, according to a new study from the University of Surrey. Computer scientists from Surrey have demonstrated that an open ended — or model-free — deep reinforcement learning method is able to stabilise large datasets (of up to 200 nodes) used in AI models. The approach holds open the prospect of uncovering ways to arrest the development of cancer by predicting the response of cancerous cells to perturbations including drug treatment. Dr Sotiris Moschoyiannis, corresponding author of the…

Love or hate them, tube tops are back and have been for quite some time, seen on fashion influencers and the world’s biggest runways alike. Unlike the bedazzled and monogrammed options à la the early aughts, modern tube tops err on the minimalist side. The silhouette is so widely coveted because it’s a brilliant transition piece, able to pair with shorts in the summer or under a classic blazer at the height of winter. Whether you’re gung ho about the trend or on the fence, allow me to suggest the Old Navy Cropped Tube Top ($15), which I recently purchased…

While Rocky was an immediate hit when it opened in theaters in 1976, grossing millions of dollars and earning the Academy Award for Best Picture, what really cemented the franchise’s popularity were endless reairings — often in back-to-back marathons — on cable television. It seemed like just about every weekend during the 1990s, some channel was showing some configuration of Rocky, Rocky II, Rocky III, Rocky IV, and Rocky V. (The fact that each sequel began with the final fight from the previous film made them a little repetitive to watch in a row — until someone hit upon the brilliant idea of trimming that sequence out of…

A significant reveal in the Shadow and Bone book series came to life on Netflix’s adaptation. Strumhond’s secret (true) identity got revealed on Shadow and Bone Season 2 Episode 3.

Her anger dissipated a bit when she learned his reasons and when he made a case for their alliance. This all happened after Alina tried to take down the fold with the power of the…
Full disclosure: my athleisure vs. real clothes ratio is about 80/20, with athleisure having the upper hand. My weakness for stylish joggers, comfy leggings, and sweatshirts with interesting silhouettes tends to take over when I’m shopping for a closet refresh. The sheer volume of wear I know I’ll get out of each piece is undeniable. My latest acquisition? The Old Navy Dynamic Fleece Half-Zip Sweatshirt ($50), a structured sweatshirt that looks equally stylish paired with leggings for a workout or wide-leg jeans for running errands. I have plenty of crewneck sweatshirts, hoodies, and zip-ups but wanted to grab a trendier,…

A ConocoPhillips drill site in the National Petroleum Reserve in AlaskaConocoPhillips On 13 March, the US government approved an $8 billion oil drilling project on Alaska’s North Slope, known as the Willow project and led by oil giant ConocoPhillips. This gives the green light to one of the largest oil developments ever constructed on US federal land, and opens the door to decades of drilling in the National Petroleum Reserve in Alaska, a critical habitat for caribou and migratory birds. The decision allows for the construction of three drilling pads, along with hundreds of miles of roads, pipelines, airstrips, gravel…
Presence, the Play by William E. Jefferson What’s it About? One man’s journey through his own doubt, fear and faith in the darkest of all possible places — hell itself. During Lent, the weeks leading up to Easter, practicing Christians reflect on, among other things, the events surrounding Christ’s last days on Earth: His entry into Jerusalem, sermon at the Last Supper, arrest in the Garden of Gethsemane, trial before Pontius Pilate, crucifixion and death at the hands of Roman soldiers, burial and subsequent resurrection. It is a story full of treachery, cruelty, despair and sorrow. One where faith and…
Electric space propulsion systems use energized atoms to generate thrust. The high-speed beams of ions bump against the graphite surfaces of the thruster, eroding them a little more with each hit, and are the systems’ primary lifetime-limiting factor. When ion thrusters are ground tested in an enclosed chamber, the ricocheting particles of carbon from the graphite chamber walls can also redeposit back onto the thruster surfaces. This changes the measured performance characteristics of the thruster. Researchers at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign used data from low-pressure chamber experiments and large-scale computations to develop a model to better understand the effects…
