American adults with college degrees now outlive those without degrees by more than eight years, in part because graduates appear to be more proactive about protecting their health. For example, they smoke cigarettes at far lower rates and follow cancer screening advice more often, especially after a relative is diagnosed. Even as studies documented such disparities, the health gap widened. View Original Source Here

Netflix “Ransom Canyon” returned for its second season on Thursday, July 23, but not every familiar face from Season 1 is back for another ride. Now streaming on Netflix, the premiere wastes little time addressing the departures of several major characters from Season 1 — Staten’s ranching nemesis Davis (played by Eoin Macken), Davis’ son Reid Collins (Andrew Liner), and Davis’ ex-wife Paula Jo (Meta Golding). All three characters played vital roles in Season 1, key pieces in the show’s main love triangles, but none of them return in Season…

Salad is usually synonymous with healthy eating. Except now, as the US grapples with an expanding outbreak of cyclosporiasis that’s sickened more than 7,100 people in Michigan alone, likely caused by iceberg lettuce supplied by Taylor Farms.In fact, leafy greens are frequently implicated in instances of foodborne illness. There was a 2022 multistate E. coli outbreak tied to romaine served on Wendy’s sandwiches and 173 cases of norovirus linked to Illinois eatery D.C. Cobb’s. In 2021, BrightFarms recalled packaged salad greens sold in several states after 31 people got salmonella. And in 2019, a total of 167 people were infected…

The face of a young woman crowned with a laurel wreath, buried in elaborate clothing and unusual cork sandals, has appeared nearly 1,700 years after her death.She is one of 16 people from Aquincum, a Roman-era city in present-day Hungary, whose faces have been reconstructed for “Once We Were Like You,” a new exhibition at the Aquincum Museum in Budapest. The display pairs skulls excavated in and around the ancient city with scientifically informed approximations of how their owners may have looked in life.Six of the reconstructions are hyperrealistic silicone models, complete with artificial eyes, human hair, eyebrows, eyelashes and,…

When Tom Cruise turned a long-awaited sequel to one of his old blockbusters into a huge modern hit, you had to assume he would try it again. And that is what he’s doing. He’s following up Top Gun: Maverick with a follow-up to Days of Thunder, which was already kind of a follow-up to Top Gun in the first place. It starred Cruise as a hot shot race car driver — you might say his Cole Trickle is a bit of a maverick — who survives a terrible crash but loses his nerve on the track and needs to rebuild his confidence.The movie made $87 million worldwide, a fairly…

Nearly two months after Nina Protocol announced it was shutting down, the free, independent music platform has been acquired by SoundCloud. The agreement allows SoundCloud to inherent Nina Protocol’s editorial archive, genre map, and—if artists choose to opt into SoundCloud’s “creator ecosystem”—their music catalogues.Musicians who take SoundCloud up on that offer will reportedly “gain access to industry-leading tools for distribution, direct fan monetization, audience growth, fan engagement, and more equitable streaming revenue, helping them reach new listeners around the world.”SoundCloud is encouraging artists who formerly used Nina Protocol to join their ranks for three main reasons: to sell music directly…

Hanna-Barbera Productions We recently posted an article highlighting the best forgotten cartoons of the 1990s and then decided, what the heck, let’s travel back another decade and shine a spotlight on the overlooked animated gems from the ’80s that somehow slipped through the cracks. What a journey! Along the way, we rediscovered a heap of shows we’d completely forgotten, triggering a tidal wave of nostalgia centered on dinosaurs, bouncing bears, more dinosaurs, fat cats, and shape-shifting robots. No doubt, the ’80s really were a special era for cartoons. Absurd premises…

Silent cinema has long had a reputation of antiquity, seen by most of the 21st century film audience as outdated, irrelevant and culturally redundant. The narrative of film itself has always been driven by the advent of popular new technology. In 1927, The Jazz Singer took audiences by storm, shifting popular cinema into the era of talkies from the 1930s onwards. Left behind was the era of silent cinema, an outdated modem shaped by emphatic performances, decadent intertitles, and erratic physical comedians of vaudeville such as Buster Keaton and Harry Langdon. It’s a period of cinema history far often left to moulder away…

I just saw Louis Vuitton’s latest innovation—Silk Tech—and knew I had to share it with you. Introduced during the F/W 2026 menswear show, as part of the collection designed by Pharrell Williams, this new fabric is cutting-edge craftsmanship at its finest.The twill-woven hybrid of silk and reclaimed nylon (the material weaves the silk and nylon together for a super strong structure) has a silk feel and features water-repellent, anti-fraying, and crease-resistant properties. It’s reimagined on iconic silhouettes like the Speedy, Keepall, men’s ready-to-wear pieces, and more. Oh, what’s also interesting is it can be mistaken for leather.Keep scrolling for a…

In what looks to be a radical departure from its existing lineup, Range Rover has confirmed an entirely new fifth vehicle: the Range Rover GT, an all-electric grand tourer built on the company’s Electrified Modular Architecture (EMA), the same platform that will underpin other midsized cars for the brand.Range Rover has only shared camouflaged prototype pictures for now, as the GT is supposedly still undergoing final testing, ahead of a full launch expected later this year. That means details on this completely new model are scant to say the least: no price, no range, and no power figures have been…

Runoff from Greenland’s rapidly melting ice sheet could severely disrupt currents in the Atlantic Ocean that regulate the global climate, researchers say. But the fresh water won’t trigger the complete and irreversible collapse of the circulation that some research predicts, a new study suggests.By 2100, Greenland meltwater could cause a reduction in the strength of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) equivalent to an additional 10% to 20% on top of the weakening that many scientists already expect for this huge system of currents, researchers found.Previous research suggests the AMOC, which moves heat from the tropics to the Northern Hemisphere…

In December 2014, the Discovery Channel released a special that sounded like it came straight out of a nature-run-amok horror movie: “Eaten Alive” was an overhyped, one-off documentary that promised to show viewers snake expert Paul Rosolie willingly being swallowed whole by a massive anaconda. Discovery’s marketing for the slithery special caused a media circus, piquing the interest of viewers curious to see if a man would actually survive being swallowed by a serpent — while also drawing criticism from animal rights groups like PETA, who saw it as nothing more than a cruel…

When you think of Guns N’ Roses, you likely think of Appetite for Destruction, debauchery, Axl Rose throwing fits onstage in stadiums and a very long road to the making of Chinese Democracy.However, we’re just here to talk about the debauchery.There were quite a few characters involved in the formation of the band during its early years, but the Appetite lineup of Rose, Slash, Duff McKagan, Izzy Stradlin and Steven Adler was solidified in 1985. They played up and down the Sunset Strip, lived on the streets, partied, did a lot of drugs and took advantage of a lot of people… The perils of rock ‘n’ roll…

A comprehensive education on American culinary traditions has to include African American foodways. Needless to say, there is no one culture that defines American cuisine. From the crops grown by Indigenous peoples to the ingredients brought to the U.S. by immigrants seeking a taste of home, the library of American recipes is contained in a melting pot. But, today, I’m focusing on three excellent books about African American food and foodways, including my current read, which I’ve been meaning to get to ever since watching its Netflix series adaptation. More than cookbooks, High on the Hog by Jessica B. Harris,…

HBO Richard Madden didn’t even change his clothes before heading home from his final day on the “Game of Thrones” set. The infamous “Red Wedding” in “Game of Thrones” Season 3, Episode 9, gave Madden’s Robb Stark a shocking and violent death, as he and other high-ranking members of House Stark were massacred by Walder Frey’s (David Bradley) men. As for why Madden kept his Robb outfit on while traveling — fake blood and all — there wasn’t exactly a pressing reason. During a 2018 interview with GQ, the actor explained, “I just…

I keep reading articles about 2026 as a year of box office “triumphs.”And that is absolutely true in certain places and at certain times. Toy Story 5 proved Andy might have outgrown his toys, but the public at large most certainly has not. Project Hail Mary showed that Amazon could open a big-time blockbuster, and confirmed that Ryan Gosling was way more than just Ken in Barbie. The Odyssey’s huge opening weekend cements Christopher Nolan’s status as the most bankable big-budget auteur alive today. (It outgrossed Steven Spielberg’s Disclosure Day in three days!) And there have definitely been some big surprise hits as well. Nobody expected Obsession to outgross The…
