The U.S. experienced an unprecedented number of group A streptococcal infections in children from October to December of 2022, which should alert physicians to check for the potentially deadly infectious disease as the country moves out of the pandemic, according to research published by UTHealth Houston. The study, led by senior author Anthony R. Flores, MD, PhD, MPH, associate professor and chief of pediatric infectious diseases at McGovern Medical School at UTHealth Houston, was published this month in Clinical Infectious Diseases. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the rate of other infectious diseases dropped due to safety measures such as social distancing…
Winter is still a couple weeks longer, but Amal Clooney took advantage of a warmer New York City day to show off what great transitional spring dressing looks like. The human rights lawyer was photographed wearing a black and white dotted coat with a white mini dress, sheer black tights, and black Mary Jane block heels. She wore her dark hair down in soft waves and carried a big black bag.TheImageDirect.comClooney addressed how much media attention her outfits and marriage to George Clooney get over her work in an interview with Time last year.“Marriage has been wonderful,” she said, addressing…
There is nothing immediately suspicious about Camille Lons’ LinkedIn page. The politics and security researcher’s profile photo is of her giving a talk. Her professional network is made up of almost 400 people; she has a detailed career history and biography. Lons has also shared a link to a recent podcast appearance—“always enjoying these conversations”—and liked posts from diplomats across the Middle East.So when Lons got in touch with freelance journalist Anahita Saymidinova last fall, her offer of work appeared genuine. They swapped messages on LinkedIn before Lons asked to share more details of a project she was working on…
Everybody’s gotta start somewhere. Even a drummer as great as The Winery Dogs’ Mike Portnoy had to put in his due diligence studying the masters of the craft on his way to becoming one of the most respected drummers in metal and hard rock today. And in this edition of Gear Factor, Portnoy takes us through some of his mentors, those who helped to hone his own style of playing, and shares some of the greatest (and yes his favorite) drum intros of all time.So where did it all start for Portnoy? He credits Ringo Starr, Keith Moon and John…
With a new week comes a new episode of The Mandalorian. The fourth episode of the third season follows Din Djarin (Pedro Pascal) as he returns to the Mandalorian covert and goes on a new mission while Gorgu is trained in the ways of the Mandalore. Unfortunately, “Chapter 20: The Foundling” is a weak episode. Blessedly brief, this installment feels like a reminder that the new season has no direction for where it is leading, with each episode feeling like a stand-alone event without a clear storyline underneath it all. The episode begins with tribe members on Mandalore training in combat.…

Let’s hear it for the romances that celebrate the diversity of bisexual romantic experiences. While searching my shelves, real and digital, for the best bisexual romance books, I enjoyed finding books across the YA and adult romance spectrum that just get it. There can be a tendency for outsiders to collapse a person’s sexuality to their current relationships. Because of that, the very best bisexual romance books can look at past relationships and explore possibly evolving sexuality, all while telling a relationship-centered story.…
Ever found yourself angry at a situation and in desperate need to tell the world about it by ranting to anyone who’ll listen? Maybe it’s time to pause; inhale and reflect on what values you hold dear. A new interdisciplinary study, conducted by philosophers and linguists at Cardiff University and psychologists at the University of Bath has found that a process of reflecting on life values before a debate can enhance people’s willingness to listen to others and engage with them in a civil dialogue. For the study, the research team recruited 303 participants. Participants were all put in small…
Blue Bloods has never shied away from complex issues. The series has often strived to show conflicts from the perspective of police officers without being heavy-handed or forcing any particular point of view on viewers. Blue Bloods Season 13 Episode 16 was no exception. This episode offered a balanced, nuanced view of how racism impacts police decisions and whether a cop’s decision to participate in adult entertainment outside of working hours should be grounds for termination. Both of these issues had the potential to be contentious, but Blue Bloods provided various viewpoints and left viewers to make up their own…
Shopping for swimwear can be very difficult—sizing can sometimes be way off, especially if the two-piece you’re eyeing comes as a predetermined set. This is why I always recommend approaching it as early as possible. No one wants to be running around trying to find a bikini the day before they’re supposed to jet off. Taking the time to consider and try on a few styles will up the chances of you finding a swimsuit or bikini you really love, which should mean that you’re more likely to get more wear out of it during future getaways, too. And, if you…
A Facebook search for the words “election fraud” first delivers an article claiming that workers at a Pennsylvania children’s museum are brainwashing children so they’ll accept stolen elections.Facebook’s second suggestion? A link to an article from a site called MAGA Underground that says Democrats are plotting to rig next month’s midterms. “You should still be mad as hell about the fraud that happened in 2020,” the article insists.With less than three weeks before the polls close, misinformation about voting and elections abounds on social media despite promises by tech companies to address a problem blamed for increasing polarisation and distrust.While…
There’s no doubt that political discourse has impacted most of our live more prominently over the last few elections and through the pandemic. But through it all, Godsmack’s Sully Erna has one clear message that he wants to get out there. He’s proud of his country. In fact, it’s that reflection of the U.S. that has inspired the new Godsmack song, “Red, White and Blue” off their Lighting Up the Sky album.Erna opened up to Loudwire Nights’ Kevin Vargas in an extensive track-by-track breakdown surrounding the new Lighting Up the Sky album. Discussing the patriotic connotations of the song’s title…

What’s the story behind the story? What inspired you to write Unwilling Souls? I was really captivated by a few ideas I thought of separately but wove into a single setting for a short story: a world where the gods had tried to exterminate humanity and had summoned up great beasts to trample the human cities flat. But both the gods and their beasts had been beaten, the gods imprisoned inside the hollowed-out center of the planet and the beasts reduced to bones that a triumphant humanity used to rebuild civilization. In the short story, two star-crossed-lover teenagers decide they…
CSI: Vegas just closed its ongoing silver ink case, which was introduced at the end of Season 1. So now will be seeing strictly cases-of-the-week for the rest of Season 2? “We’ve got some cases, we’ve got another little arc coming to do with — in this season, we’ve seen how difficult it is for Folsom [Matt Lauria], who grew up in Vegas around some very rough stuff, and he’s got some challenging family members and that’s going to come to the fore,” showrunner Jason Tracey recently told TV Insider. “We do have plenty of big cases of the week,…
Credit: Unsplash/CC0 Public Domain After its hottest February since 1901, the India Meteorological Department has issued an early heat wave warning and forecasts for higher-than-normal temperatures between March and May. Reports from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change share compelling evidence that with every degree of additional warming to the world’s climate, the frequency and intensity of heat waves are projected to get worse in future. Kieran Hunt, a climate scientist at the National Center for Atmospheric Science and the University of Reading, explains how El Niño and climate change are bringing soaring temperatures to India. “Heat waves are periods…
Cowboy boots are a thing again, though I’d argue that they’ve never been as “in” as they are right now. Between appearing in the collections of Saint Laurent and Celine to being worn by the likes of Emily Ratajkowski and Sienna Miller, I think it is safe to stay that cowboy boots are sticking around fr spring/summer 2023. I fully appreciate that they’re not exactly the shrinking violets of the shoe-and-boot family, so I understand if you find cowboy boots a little too costume-like for your taste. But there are also plenty of styles to be found that offer a subtler nod to Western-inspired…

They have their own needs and goals. But in managing to…
Healthy mitochondria, those tiny cellular structures high school biology teachers often tout as “the powerhouses of the cell,” are a necessity for producing energy in the body—but new research supports the idea that they are more than just adenosine triphosphate (ATP)–pumping machines. For about a decade, scientists have experimented with transplanting these microscopic organelles to treat damaged hearts and other tissues, and they have seen a handful of successful outcomes in human trials. But the role mitochondria play in the healing process is still a mystery. “There’s an entire field of basic science that just is begging, like, ‘Please, please,…
Somebody alert Interpol! Cop Nick Spitz (Adam Sandler) and his hairdresser wife Audrey (Jennifer Aniston) are back for another globe-trotting adventure in Murder Mystery 2, the rollicking sequel to Netflix’s 2019 caper comedy premiering March 31. In that hit, the pair’s European dream vacay was interrupted when they were suspected of killing an elderly billionaire. They managed to solve that quirky case, but back home, the Spitzes’ vision of being full-time investigators isn’t panning out. So, they jump at the chance to get away from it all for the glamorous wedding of their friend the Maharajah (Adeel Akhtar). There’s a…
Shawn Mendes made headlines in late February when he and Dr. Jocelyne Miranda, a 51-year-old chiropractor, were photographed out on a hike in Runyon Canyon Park in Los Angeles. This is far from the first time they’ve been spotted by paparazzi: They were photographed as far back as July 2022 and as recently as earlier this February, going for a coffee run after the Grammys. While neither Miranda nor Mendes have commented on dating rumors (and a source told Entertainment Tonight in March 2023 that there’s no truth to them), Miranda does have years-long history with Mendes as a chiropractor…
