There’s just something beautiful about the way Daniel Craig says the word “murder” in his Benoit Blanc accent.“Muhhhhrder.”Craig says the words a few times in the trailer for Glass Onion, the new sequel to Rian Johnson’s surprise hit mystery film Knives Out from 2019. In this new installment, Craig’s master sleuth Benoit Blanc just happens to witness a murder at what’s supposed to be a murder mystery party among friends. So who is the real killer? I mean, obviously we don’t know now, but Blanc is sure to figure things out before the final credits roll.Here’s the latest trailer for Glass Onion, which…
BookTrib is proud to present to our readers the Writers, Ink podcast, a show about the business of writing. J.K. Rowling was nearly homeless when she wrote the first Harry Potter book. Stephen King penned Carrie on a small desk wedged between a washer and dryer. James Patterson worked in advertising and famously wrote the Toys “R” Us theme song long before becoming an author. Whether you’re traditionally published or indie, writing a good book is only the first step in becoming a successful author. The days of just turning a manuscript into your editor and walking away are gone. If you…
It’s the most wonderful time of the year…for Hallmark Channel executives! The annual Countdown to Christmas programming event has become a holiday destination for TV viewers, making Hallmark the most-watched entertainment cable network for five years in a row. “We have a 24/7 news cycle — it’s a constant need to be fed — and we have a lot of dark, edgy programming out in the world that’s fantastic, but as in the human experience, it’s a huge spectrum, and where we live is with positivity and celebration and emotional connection, and that’s unique to what we do,” Michelle Vicary,…
The mTOR protein plays a central role in cell growth, proliferation and survival. Its activity varies according to the availability of nutrients and some growth factors, including hormones. This protein is implicated in several diseases, including cancer, where its activity frequently increases. To better understand its regulation, a team from the University of Geneva (UNIGE), in collaboration with researchers from the Martin Luther University (MLU) of Halle-Wittenberg in Germany, and the recently inaugurated Dubochet Center for Imaging (UNIGE-UNIL-EPFL), has identified the structure of the SEA complex — an interdependent set of proteins — responsible for controlling mTOR. The discovery of…
Billie Eilish and Jesse Rutherford are officially a fashion couple — well, rumored couple, that is. After being spotted on what appeared to be several dates over the past few months, the duo hit the red carpet at the LACMA Art+Film Gala in matching outfits. As an ambassador for Gucci, the “Happier Than Ever” singer has worn various ensembles from the Milan-based fashion house over the years. But this is the first time she supported the brand with a couples outfit, as both Eilish and her presumed new boyfriend were dressed head to toe in looks emblazoned with the Gucci…
There is no country in the world in terms of “margin protection” better than India where technology is extensively used to protect clients’ securities, Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) chairperson Madhabi Puri Buch said on Friday. The SEBI chief said that foreign investors often tell her that she was fortunate to have a culture of data and technology in the country, which makes the role of the capital market regulator effective.”There is huge technology change in the entire market. It has never been done anywhere in the world ever…and we did it in India. So, today in terms…
[] Skip to main content “I’m not giving up my personality for anybody,” she told Kelly Clarkson of the difference between dating older and younger men. Cher attends the UK Premiere of “Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again” at Eventim Apollo on July 16, 2018 in London. John Phillips/Getty Images Cher knows her 40-year age difference with new boyfriend Alexander “AE” Edwards is making headlines, but she doesn’t mind at all.

Creed II ended with a scene that I found very perplexing. After the title character won the climactic fight, he called over his trainer Rocky Balboa to celebrate. Rocky gave him a fist bump, but didn’t get in the ring. “It’s your time,” Balboa told Creed.And then, as a sad version of the Rocky theme music played, Rocky took his seat at ringside and adjusted his trademark hat.It felt like a good bye to Rocky — but how could you make more Creed movies without Rocky Balboa? Apparently, you can, as Creed III is coming to theaters next spring without Rocky or Sylvester Stallone. When I spoke to Creed II’s director, Steven Caple Jr.,…
What’s the story behind the story? What inspired you to write Hammered (Legacy of Magic, Book 1)? I wrote ten books in my Death Before Dragons urban fantasy series with a talented, tall, and beautiful half-elf heroine. Elves are always popular in fantasy! But dwarves are usually the sidekicks. When it was time to write a spinoff series, I thought… let’s do a half-dwarf this time. She’s stout, strong, and attracts all the wrong guys (some with tusks). She’s been a fun departure from those elfy types. If you had to pick theme songs for the main characters of Hammered…
CNN‘s new chairman and CEO, Chris Licht, has big ideas for the news network and isn’t worried about competing with other news channels like Fox News and MSNBC. Appearing on a recent episode of the On With Kara Swisher podcast, Licht opened up about what he considers to be competition. “I’m not looking at it through trying to appeal to ‘lean into the left’ or ‘try to appeal to more people on the right.’ I think that that’s not a good business model because you’re fighting for a bigger slice of a shrinking pie,” he explained. “The competition for me…
Do people have a right to an unobstructed view of the heavens? For most of human history, such a question would have been considered nonsensical—but with the recent rise of satellite mega constellations, it’s now being asked again and again. Mega constellations are vast groups of spacecraft, numbering in the thousands, that could spark a multitrillion-dollar orbital industry and transform global connectivity and commerce. But the rise of mega constellations also threatens to clutter the night sky, disrupt the work of some astronomers and create space debris that harms people on Earth and in space alike. In January 2020 Scientific American…

A weakening journalism industry is one arm of the octopus which has allowed book bans and censorship to thrive in the current environment. It’s not just the loss of local news, though. Further contributing is the insistence of calling book censorship a matter of “culture war.” Censorship is not, nor has it ever been, a culture war. A “culture war” is what happens between two (or more) factions working to assert dominance for their belief system. Keeping to this part of the definition, censorship might fall under the umbrella of the term. But “culture war” describes more than a fringe…

A. Euglenoids are single-cell organisms with a standard complement of internal cellular organelles for photosynthetic organisms with one to two emergent flagella. Obvious morphological features unique to euglenoids are the pellicle, a series of interlocking protein strips below the plasma membrane.

The Evolution of Crime and Police Strength. Notes: The figure plots full-time equivalent police officer strength and total recorded crime (excluding fraud and computer misuse) for the 43 Police Force Areas in England and Wales as of 31 March of each year. We cut the crime series a year early in order to keep the sample homogeneous—data for Greater Manchester Police (one of the largest police force areas) is not available from 2019 onward due to “the implementation of a new IT system”. The light gray section highlights the pre-period for our analysis sample, the darker gray the post period…
We all have them—clothes that make us just feel happy and seem to bring good fortune. Sure, dressing up can feel fun and fancy, but when it comes down to it, daily go-tos like denim are what support us sartorially when we need it most. And if we believe they bring great luck? Even better.No one is more familiar with the need to up the style stakes from time to time than the editors who work at fashion magazines. With the downtown streets of Manhattan’s West Village as a backdrop, editors from ELLE and Esquire share their feel Lucky secrets…
Most of us have hundreds, if not thousands, of photos just sitting on our phones and computers that we rarely get to revisit in a polished way. There are too many to print and frame, and more keep piling up. That’s why I love digital frames. If you’re thinking of the tacky, pixelated digital frames of the early aughts, don’t fear! They’ve come a long way. They’re nice to have around the house, and they also make great gifts. You can set them up for others and push your latest vacation photos straight to them, so your folks or grandparents can…

What’s the story behind the story? What inspired you to write The Crossing (Arlan’s Pledge Book One)? I had just finished reading The Song of Albion by Stephen R. Lawhead, which has a strong Celtic flavour. Brilliant series. I had lived in Scotland for some years but was living in Nairobi at the time and perhaps yearning for Scotland a wee bit. That series of novels just sent my imagination going. This was long before I wrote creatively. There’s a hill behind a Scottish village where a friend of ours used to live. There are the ruins of an Iron…
Hologram Janeway sets up the theme of Star Trek: Prodigy Season 1 Episode 15 when she warns Dal as he leads the away team down to Noble Isle, “If it’s too good to be true, it probably is.” This ends up applying to individuals like Okona and Asencia, technology like Dr. Jago’s, and simplistic solutions like the orders given by Admiral Jellico (insert round of boos and hisses). But the truth will out, and while the jury’s out on Asencia’s bomb of a reveal, our young crew feels stronger for Dal learning about his origins and Murf taking the literal…

For anyone who’s ever had a toxic, just-can’t-quit-you type of relationship with a significant other, the new Hulu show Tell Me Lies might feel a little too familiar. Executive produced by Emma Roberts and based on the addictive novel by Carola Lovering, the series introduces us to Lucy Albright (Grace Van Patten), a twentysomething woman on her way to her college friend’s engagement party—only to find her biggest-deal ex, Stephen DeMarco (Jackson James White), also in attendance. The series then flashes back to Lucy’s first year of college and proceeds to show us exactly how Lucy and Stephen got involved—and…
The effort was orchestrated via GitHub and Telegram, where prominent members of the Solana community gathered. Some, like Max Schneider of trading platform Mango Markets, took the lead on the coding while others, like Long, were in charge of making sure everyone was pulling in the same direction.By November 16, Open Book had surpassed Serum in daily transaction volume (at roughly $3 million), signaling that traders had accepted the clone as the official successor. On Twitter, project contributor Ansel described this moment as “the point of no return.” Many of the applications that interfaced with the original exchange—like DEX aggregator Jupiter, data provider…
