Credit: Unsplash/CC0 Public Domain Another round of powerful atmospheric rivers is hitting California, following storms in January and February 2023 that dumped record amounts of snow. This time, the storms are warmer, and they are triggering flood warnings as they bring rain higher into the mountains—on top of the snowpack. Professor Keith Musselman, who studies water and climate change at the University of Colorado’s Institute of Arctic and Alpine Research, explained the complex risks rain on snow creates and how they might change in a warming climate. What happens when rain falls on snowpack? For much of the United States,…
The best advantage an accused person has when dealing with legal proceedings is the base assumption that everyone is innocent until proven guilty beyond reasonable doubt. That was a courtesy neither Perry nor his clients — Rafael and Mateo — were extended, and from the first hearing, to determine how long counsel should be given to seek evidence to mount their defense, it was clear minds were already made up. Perry, Della, and Paul tried to find alternative information about the night Brooks was murdered on Perry Mason Season 2 Episode 3. We weren’t deluded about how hard this case would be…

In honor of Pokémon Day (by the by, Happy Pokémon Day to all who celebrate), Netflix has announced a new animated series coming to its service in the near future inspired by the endless multimedia franchise. Titled Pokémon Concierge, the show is different from the standard Pokémon content in a few ways. For one thing, it’s not a 2D animated series; the show is stop-motion, made in collaboration with dwarf studios.For another, rather than a tale of battles and contests to determine the best Pokémon trainer of them all, Pokémon Concierge is set at a “resort” for Pokémon and their owners. (The carpet cleaning bills at that place must…
Ridiculously Hopeful: A Story of Bold Faith and Hope During a Crisis by Maleah Stephens Book reviewers are real people too. Let me explain. I was in the middle of a personal crisis. Here at BookTrib, we have the luxury of access to so many books, so many different voices that might resonate with readers looking for something to grab on to and connect with in times of strife.

Many small businesses fear that higher minimum wages will force them to lose profits or cut jobs. But new research co-authored at UC Berkeley finds that costs can be passed to customers with little impact on business — and considerable benefit for workers. Credit: Wikimedia Commons Restaurants, retail stores and other small businesses, long thought to be vulnerable to increases in the minimum wage, generally do not cut jobs and may actually benefit when governments raise minimum pay, according to a new study co-authored at UC Berkeley. The prevailing wisdom among many business owners and policymakers is that when the…
March 2, 1998, serves as the debut of the Cartoon Network Powerhouse, which was widely considered the network’s best era due to its slate of original content at the time. With the transition from the Checkerboard and Starburst eras to the Powerhouse era, the network began to feature original series more prominently. This includes iconic shows like Dexter’s Laboratory, Johnny Bravo, and Ed, Edd, n Eddy, among many others. Many of these shows started through their animated series What a Cartoon!, which showcased various pilot animations that would get greenlit if well-received.

There once was a virtual assistant named Ms. Dewey, a comely librarian played by Janina Gavankar who assisted you with your inquiries on Microsoft’s first attempt at a search engine. Ms. Dewey was launched in 2006, complete with over 600 lines of recorded dialog. She was ahead of her time in a few ways, but one particularly overlooked example was captured by information scholar Miriam Sweeney in her 2013 doctoral dissertation, where she detailed the gendered and racialized implications of Dewey’s replies. That included lines like, “Hey, if you can get inside of your computer, you can do whatever you want…

Computer scientists at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, in collaboration with biologists at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology, recently announced in the journal Methods in Ecology and Evolution a new, predictive model that is capable of accurately forecasting where a migratory bird will go next — one of the most difficult tasks in biology.

What’s the story behind the story? What inspired you to write A Duke Always Breaks the Rules? I have always had a vivid imagination that allowed me to create these different worlds or scenes, and sometimes those stories inspire me to put them on paper in the hope that others will enjoy reading them as much as I enjoyed creating them. While creating this series, Rockhurst quickly became one of my favorite characters and there is a special place in my heart for him. And when writing A Duke Always Breaks the Rules, I felt it was time for him…
In better times, the U.S. has, with some humility, owned up to its failures. Commissions have investigated tragedies such as Pearl Harbor and 9 /11. Presidential blue-ribbon panels bulwarked the Social Security program in 1983 and overhauled NASA’s space shuttle program after the 1986 Challenger disaster. Three years into the COVID pandemic, more than 1.1 million people are dead, and millions more are living with long COVID. How did the nation judged most prepared for an epidemic or pandemic in 2019 suffer a death rate so much worse than peers such as Canada, Germany or Japan? These are historic failures,…
