Pantera performed without founding bassist Rex Brown during their set at Knotfest Chile on Sunday night (December 11th) in Santiago.

Pantera later issued a statement from Brown, confirming that he contracted COVID: “I caught a very mild strain of COVID, but because of our own protocols, I simply do not wanna risk getting my brothers or…

The Mountain in the Sea by Ray Nayler What’s it About? Humankind discovers intelligent life in an octopus species with its own language and culture, and sets off a high-stakes global competition to dominate the future. Ray Nayler’s debut is a dazzling exploration of consciousness, morality and environmentalism delivered through the vehicle of a near-future thriller. Complete with androids, espionage and corporate greed, the pages practically turn themselves in The Mountain in the Sea (MCD) — and we haven’t yet mentioned the hyper-intelligent humanlike species of octopus. The story unfolds in alternating chapters from the perspectives of a marine biologist,…
When most people think of foster care, they usually think about what they’ve seen on TV, which isn’t a lot. It’s just one of those things writers don’t tend to dig deep into, except for a few choice storylines that usually end up on the cutting floor. If you’re a fan of family dramas, though, there’s a good chance you know about The Fosters. The Fosters was a Freeform series that featured a family thrown into disarray when a teenage girl (Maia Mitchell) and her younger brother (Hayden Byerly) end up placed in their care. There’s also a good chance…
A young woman experienced spontaneous vomiting attacks during which she would sometimes retch more than 30 times a day and heave up to 1.6 gallons (6 liters) over the full course of an episode. It turns out, the symptoms likely stem from an underlying autoimmune disorder. According to a report of the case, published Nov. 10 in the journal Frontiers in Endocrinology (opens in new tab), the 27-year-old woman also has type 1 diabetes, an autoimmune disease in which the immune system attacks cells in the pancreas that produce the hormone insulin. Insulin helps shepherd sugar out of the bloodstream and…
COS’s star buys include the ultimate leather trench coat and a simple black tube dress that ticks off one of the season’s most popular trends and manages to feel grown-up and timeless. And their offering of perfectly tailored trousers only continues to grow and improve. Meanwhile, over at Arket, basics are the pieces to zone in on first—think elevated outerwear and classic knits, as well as some incredible footwear that could so easily pass for designer. Its arsenal exceeds basics, though, and you’ll also find the odd flash of silver (which is back for AW22) and pops of colour not to miss. Fabric is something I’m most intrigued by, and all…

Skid Row frontman Erik Grönwall is no stranger to recording impressive covers, having previously tackled gems such as Pantera’s “Shattered,” Van Halen’s “Dreams” and even Sia’s “Chandelier.” However, he may’ve just topped himself with this electrifying rendition of Guns N’ Roses’ “You’re Crazy.”Originally released on 1987’s seminal Appetite for Destruction, “You’re Crazy” took the 16th spot on Loudwire’s 2018 ranking of every Guns N’ Roses song. It’s no wonder, then, why artists such as Haste, Katet, and Charlie Bonnet III have covered it. While their takes were certainly interesting, Grönwall’s may be the best yet.Directed by Jakob Jakobsson Blom, the…
James Cameron has been working for the better part of ten years on a whole batch of Avatar sequels. The first, The Way of Water, finally opens in theaters — almost a decade after it was first announced — in a couple of weeks. After that, Cameron intends to make two three more Avatar sequels. The third film has already been shot, and some of the fourth has as well. There’s already a script written for the fifth. (The whole saga was written together.)Whether Cameron makes them all these Avatars depend on how the movies perform at the box office. If audiences keep returning to Pandora, he’ll…
As physical links between the ground and the sky, plants play an important role in shaping Earth’s weather and climate. Now, Stanford University researchers have revealed how a closer look at plants’ inner workings may be able to help improve model predictions of some devastating global disasters. Flash droughts, which develop rapidly and deplete water availability in a matter of weeks, are associated with changes in evapotranspiration — the process of plants moving moisture from their roots to the air. Water undergoing evapotranspiration is sometimes considered “lost” to the atmosphere, so accurate calculations of this loss can be critical to…

Researchers at the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard and the McGovern Institute for Brain Research at MIT have developed a system that can detect a particular RNA sequence in live cells and produce a protein of interest in response. Using the technology, the team showed how they could identify specific cell types, detect and measure changes in the expression of individual genes, track transcriptional states, and control the production of proteins encoded by synthetic mRNA. The platform, called Reprogrammable ADAR Sensors, or RADARS, even allowed the team to target and kill a specific cell type. The team said RADARS…

Google, despite its oversight on potentially risky crypto websites, has not been able to get rid of them from search that is exposing people to financial exploits on a daily basis.

Gadgets 360 did not encounter the issue and cannot hence confirm Zhao’s claims.The 45-year-old crypto mogul shared a screenshot of his Google search on Twitter…
Earlier this month, the Recording Academy announced that Arcade Fire’s WE was nominated for the 2023 Grammy Award for Best Alternative Album. The band is also billed as a headliner for a summer 2023 music festival in Spain, alongside Florence and the Machine and the Strokes.The new allegations, like the ones before them, have surfaced in the context of a post-MeToo articulation of consent, rooted in factors like power imbalance and emotional manipulation. Sabina is unequivocal in her characterization of the alleged interactions. “It was an ongoing abusive relationship,” she said. “Emotionally abusive, manipulative, toxic, and using his power dynamic to exploit my body…

Rietveld refinement of deuterated carbonic acid at 1.85 GPa. Shown are the results of the simultaneous refinement against the shorter (top) and longer (bottom) wavelengths with the measured (blue crosses), fitted (dark green line), and background (red) data including the Bragg peaks of CO2 (red), D2CO3 (light green), and the Ni-Cr-Al cell (blue) as well as the difference signal. Credit: Inorganics (2022). DOI: 10.3390/inorganics10090132 The existence of carbonic acid has long been the subject of debate: theoretically real, but practically impossible to detect. That is because the compound decomposes at the Earth’s surface. A German-Chinese team of researchers working at…
I love Christmas. There, I said it. I really, really love Christmas. And it’s not because of the presents, or the tree or the incessant carols that play on repeat in every single department store throughout the whole month of December. I love Christmas because it is one of the few times a year that my entire family gets to spend the day together.There’s something particularly wholesome about the traditions a family develops over the years throughout Christmas time. Those unspoken rules that everyone abides by simply because they have done so in years past. In my family, we have…
“They’ve been really strong,” Scott Blanks, the vice president of the nonprofit Lighthouse for the Blind, says. “Now they’re all gone.”Despite its late start, Twitter had established itself as one of the more inclusivity-focused social networks over the past two years.“Twitter was setting an example,” says Neil Milliken, the global head of accessibility at Atos.Now it’s setting a very different example. With no evidence that the company has shifted accessibility-related duties to other teams, there may be no one left to ensure the site complies with laws like the Americans with Disabilities Act. “Failure to monitor or verify accessibility in…

After 120-odd years, cinema has finally reached its apex, finally attained the true artistic purpose it was created to eventually achieve.To show a bear high on cocaine.That is the subject (and title character!) of Cocaine Bear, which is supposedly based on a true story of a black bear that stumbled upon a cache of cocaine that was lost during a smuggling operation gone wrong. The bear ingested the cocaine and thus was born … Cocaine Bear.

The following essay is reprinted with permission from The Conversation, an online publication covering the latest research. Every fall and winter, viral respiratory illnesses like the common cold and seasonal flu keep kids out of school and social activities. But this year, more children than usual are ending up at emergency departments and hospitals. In California, the Orange County health department declared a state of emergency in early November 2022 due to record numbers of pediatric hospitalizations for respiratory infections. In Maryland, emergency rooms have run out of beds because of the unusually high number of severe respiratory syncytial virus, or RSV, infections. So emergency departments there…

If you have an iPhone, there’s a good chance by now that you also have an Apple Watch. We’ve rated it as the best smartwatch and best fitness tracker for iPhone owners. It dominates the smartwatch category, with over a third of the market share. Even if the iterative improvements in last year’s Series 7 (8/10, WIRED Recommends) didn’t blow any minds, it’s still one of the most durable, comprehensive, and comfortable connected wearables available for the money. Personally, I’ve never cracked an Apple Watch screen or case. Apple does offer an extended warranty plan, which I would consider, given that…
