There is a massive, mineral-rich region in the Pacific Ocean — about twice the size of India — called the Clarion-Clipperton Zone (CCZ), which has already been divided up and assigned to companies for future deep-sea mining. To better understand what may be at risk once companies start mining, a team of biologists has built the first “CCZ checklist” by compiling all the species records from previous research expeditions to the region. Their estimates of the species diversity of the CCZ, publishing in the journal Current Biology on May 25, included a total of 5,578 different species found in the…
Magnum P.I.’s return is being cut short. NBC has opted to cancel Magnum P.I. following the second half of Magnum P.I. Season 5. That means fans have just ten episodes of the series remaining, and there’s no telling when these episodes will see the light of day. Deadline first reported the news, revealing that NBC “has opted not to order additional episodes” beyond that, with a looming June 30 deadline for the network to keep cast options for a potential Season 6. There are various reasons why the network could have opted to end the series: The Hollywood writers strike…
A new University of Maryland School of Public Health study reveals how walking strengthens connections within and between three of the brain’s networks, including one associated with Alzheimer’s disease, adding to the growing evidence that exercise improves brain health. Published this month in the Journal for Alzheimer’s Disease Reports, the study examined the brains and story recollection abilities of older adults with normal brain function and those diagnosed with mild cognitive impairment, which is a slight decline in mental abilities like memory, reasoning and judgment and a risk factor for Alzheimer’s. “Historically, the brain networks we studied in this research…
The Bucharest Legacy by William Maz What’s it About? The CIA is rocked to its core when a KGB defector divulges that there is a KGB mole inside the Agency. The mixology for the best spy thrillers requires a bartender-author who knows how to stir (or shake) nuance, characters and place. “Nuance” means you’re put in a world dripping with darkening shades of gray until the classic notions of right and wrong twist like licorice. Heroes are conflicted, multi-dimensional humans, not comic-book action heroes. Places are exotic, especially during those dark, gray times. If that’s the fiction you savor, you’ll…
When I think of glossy lipstick, I immediately get transported back to the Boots aisles during the 2000s. In the height of Lancôme Juicy Tube mania, I was obsessed with that lacquered, super-shiny lip look. Every lipstick advert in the magazines had those ultra-shiny, wet-look formulas, and I distinctly remember buying every almost every shade of Maybelline’s Watershine lipstick. And as someone who has chronically dry lips (I’m never more than two feet away from a lip balm), I’m welcoming this hydrating lipstick trend with open arms.After bringing the topic up in the Who What Wear UK offices, it is apparent that we’re…
The first time we speak, Joep Meindertsma is not in a good place. He tears up as he describes a conversation in which he warned his niece about the risk of artificial intelligence causing societal collapse. Afterward, she had a panic attack. “I cry every other day,” he says, speaking over Zoom from his home in the Dutch city of Utrecht. “Every time I say goodbye to my parents or friends, it feels like it could be the last time.”Meindertsma, who is 31 and co-owns a database company, has been interested in AI for a couple of years. But he…
Maluma has shared “Coco Loco,” the latest preview from his upcoming album, Don Juan. Produced by his frequent collaborator MadMusick, the club-friendly track is accompanied by a music video directed by Jessy Terrero, in which the Colombian pop star holds an impromptu concert in the streets of Miami. Undeterred by the pouring rain, Maluma runs through “Coco Loco” while surrounded by dancers wielding umbrellas. Watch it below. There’s no release date for Don Juan as of yet, but it’s slated to arrive later this year. The follow-up to 2020’s Papi Juancho also features several of Maluma’s recent singles: “La Fórmula” with Marc…

Does anyone know what Whitley’s real motive is? Sometimes she seems like a nurse who doesn’t mind bending the rules to help people, and other times she’s a mob boss, blackmailing those she helped into doing her bidding. Still, other times, she seems like a love-obsessed loon, more like Kathy Bates’ character in Misery than anything else. And on Days of Our Lives during the week of 6-19-23, Whtiley’s thoughts took a dark turn after Eli revealed he was onto her. Will Whitley kill Abe? It’s not likely. That would be an awful ending to this story. Plus, we’ve been…
Flying squirrels in China have developed a clever way to hide their nuts — chewing grooves in them so they can be stored between tree branches. The unusual behavior, seen in two species in the tropical rainforests of Hainan Island, may preserve the critters’ food for longer than burying the nuts in the moist forest floor, scientists said.”Only these two flying squirrel [species] have this technique and no other squirrel species or animals are known to have this ability,” Han Xu, professor of ecology at the Chinese Academy of Forestry in China, told Live Science. The findings were published June 13…
The Melancholy Strumpet Master by Zeb Beck What’s it About? This eccentric story follows the down-and-out Gilmore Crowell as he tries — and often fails — to piece together his life. It’s a unique work of dark humor that reveals the more unseemly side of society, and forces readers to view their lives through a new lens. Have you ever stumbled across something that forces you to look at things through a new and strange perspective? Something so absurd and distinct that you have to take a moment to fully process it? That’s how I felt after reading Zeb Beck’s…
When you hear the word “meteor,” you probably think of so-called shooting stars—the streaks of light that zip across the night sky when a small bit of space debris, usually no bigger than a grain of sand, speeds through Earth’s atmosphere and burns up because of friction with air molecules. If you have a more catastrophic bent, you might think of the bigger chunks of stuff that blow apart during their passage, generating powerful shock waves: A good example is the one that exploded above Chelyabinsk, Russia, in early 2013, injuring about 1,500 people and damaging thousands of buildings. Another…

Calling myself a “shopping expert” is not a role that I take lightly, and as Who What Wear’s shopping editor, believe me when I say there is plenty of legwork involved. Fortunately, I happen to love spending hours in the shops searching for the kind of hidden gems that I know you’ll love, and if you’re in rush and want to know where to find the best designer pieces on the market right now, allow to me to share with you some of the best new-in pieces to land this month.

Hulk may be the strongest Marvel hero, but when it comes to cinematic resumes, his is a bit on the weak side. His first film, 2003’s Hulk, was a bit of a commercial flop, although its quirky visual style has its fans. 2008’s The Incredible Hulk remains one of the most poorly reviewed films in the entire Marvel Cinematic Universe, and for a long time Marvel mostly pretended it didn’t exist. They recast Mark Ruffalo as the Hulk, and never referred to the events of the movie, except in the broadest of strokes.But little by little, The Incredible Hulk has become more important to…
Scientists have made a significant advancement with quantum technologies that could transform complex systems modelling with an accurate and effective approach that requires significantly reduced memory. Complex systems play a vital role in our daily lives, whether that be predicting traffic patterns, weather forecasts, or understanding financial markets. However, accurately predicting these behaviours and making informed decisions relies on storing and tracking vast information from events in the distant past — a process which presents huge challenges. Current models using artificial intelligence see their memory requirements increase by more than a hundredfold every two years and can often involve optimisation…

When it comes to television, some of the best ideas are based on the pages from beloved books. Whether it’s fantasy, horror, romance, or YA, the genres and ideas are boundless, but not every adaptation is built the same. Some shows nail the ideas and even improve upon storylines introduced in novels, while others seem to twist and butcher them into something nearly unrecognizable. Below, we’re breaking down a list of some of the best and worst book-to-TV adaptations, but we also want to hear from you. What’s your favorite and least favorite adaptation? Sound off in the comments below,…
Spring 2023’s fashion trends have been beckoning us since last September when the fashion week presentations were flooded with bold colours, dreamy dresses and low-key but luxurious separates. Though it may still be frosty outside, we can’t help but get excited about spring on the horizon and start planning our outfits for the upcoming season. We’re determined to find a way to start incorporating spring-ready looks into our wardrobes as early as possible—even if that means just adding a few bright colours to our outfits here and there. This year, everything is on the table from skirts to dresses, tailoring to jeans. We’re particularly infatuated…
Microsoft failed to safeguard Windows PC users from malicious drivers since 2019, according to a report. Computers use drivers to communicate with external devices such as hard disks, cameras, printers, and smartphones. Each driver is required to be digitally signed to ensure that it is safe for use. If, however, an existing digitally signed driver has a security flaw, it could be easily exploited by hackers. This has reportedly caused people to be exposed to a type of cyberattack called Bring Your Own Vulnerable Driver (BYOVD) that grants hackers direct access to the PCs running on Windows, by exploiting known…
The 2023 BET Awards, held at the Micosoft Theater in Los Angeles on Sunday (June 25), was an awards show that was heavy on “show” and very light on awards. Just six awards were presented during a show that ran nearly four hours. And just two winners – Latto and Coco Jones — were in the house to accept their awards. The award for video director Teyana “Spike Tey” Taylor was accepted by her mother, who called Teyana to give her the good news and showed her image on the phone to the camera. So, you could say three winners…
The following contains SPOILERS for The Flash. Once you see them, you can’t outrun them no matter how much you tap into the Speed Force.The Flash is the first solo movie for the Fastest Man Alive. And while it does feature a lot of ther DC characters, and a ton of Michael Keaton’s Batman, it really is a Flash story at its core. And yes, it is based on the DC Comics series Flashpoint, but it also brings a lot of new twists to that epic crossover — especially in its big finale, and its shocking cliffhanger and post-credits scene.In our…
There are more than 140 species of palm in the genus Pinanga, most of which are small, erect palms that can be found along the forest understory. More than 100 of these species occur in Southeast Asia, and Borneo is the centre of their diversity. Credit: Randi Agusti In a new study, researchers at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew and partners have described the only known member of the palm family (Arecaceae) to flower and fruit almost entirely underground. Owing to this unusual characteristic, the scientists have named the species Pinanga subterranea, with its species name derived from the Latin…
Camera Girl, the Coming of Age of Jackie Bouvier Kennedy by Carl Sferrazza Anthony What’s it About? Author and First Ladies expert Carl Sferrazza Anthony dives into the story of the 35th First Lady from her birth to her marriage to the handsome, ambitious Senator John F. Kennedy. Jacqueline Kennedy was so poised, stylish, and cultured that one might imagine she sprang into existence, fully formed, in July of 1929. In fact, baby Jacqueline arrived just a few months before the famous Wall Street Crash, but diminished family wealth was not the only reason that her first 24 years were…

In the comedy’s sophomore season, it’s the summer of ’69, and patriarch Bill (Dulé Hill) is in New York City working with Marvin Gaye and the artist’s team, trying to make his songwriting dreams come true. “Will Bill be as cool as he is in Alabama?” Hill queries. “He has achieved this goal he’s desired for so long. But oftentimes it can be way more appealing from the outside. We’ll see Bill struggle a little and maybe lose a bit of his swagger.” With his…
