By Annika Lautens, Ivy Tang Date November 23, 2022 “I can’t wear these!” exclaims Jerry in season six, episode eight of Seinfeld, referring to a pair of cowboy boots Kramer has found hidden in his friend’s closet. “You look like a cowboy,” Kramer says, encouraging his friend to wear them after giving all of Jerry’s sneakers to a local “mom and pop” store. “But I don’t wanna be a cowboy,” Jerry whines, mirroring the iconic pirate line from a few seasons prior. This exchange got big laughs at the…

Hugh Jackman was actually responsible for his return as Wolverine in the upcoming Deadpool 3 — part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe unlike the first two. In a Variety profile, the Logan actor opened up about his decision to return as the animalistic, clawed mutant from Marvel comics for the third Deadpool movie. “I think, actually, he’d given up,” Jackman said, referring to Ryan Reynolds, who had been pleading for the collaboration. “I think it was a big shock to him. There was a massive pause, and then he said, ‘I can’t believe the timing of this.’”Last month, Reynolds posted…

As we commence with our look back at the best in pop culture over the last year, let us pause to acknowledge the art of movie poster design. Before you see a movie — before you even watch a commercial or a trailer in many cases — you see a poster. And it’s up to that poster to introduce a film in a single image. That’s no easy feat. And with the proliferation of social media, posters are viewed and shared even more widely online than ever before. So that first impression is even more crucial.Take note: These are the best movie posters…
Stone projectile points discovered buried inside and outside of pit features at the Cooper’s Ferry site, Area B. Credit: Loren Davis Oregon State University archaeologists have uncovered projectile points in Idaho that are thousands of years older than any previously found in the Americas, helping to fill in the history of how early humans crafted and used stone weapons. The 13 full and fragmentary projectile points, razor sharp and ranging from about half an inch to 2 inches long, are from roughly 15,700 years ago, according to carbon-14 dating. That’s about 3,000 years older than the Clovis fluted points found…

Here’s how it works: With creator and host Michael McIntyre at the, er, wheel, the action unspools on a 42-foot-wide revolving platform. The contestant is seated in the center, surrounded by six celebrities, each an “expert” in a given category. Like a high-tech round of spin the bottle, the stage rotates to a randomly selected star, who advises the player on a trivia question worth $5K or more. The goal: Clear the Wheel with a correct…
A routine dentist’s tool may soon help with more than just oral health. A new study has found that dental imaging scanners can double as portable devices to track the growth of baby corals—a crucial predictor of how reefs will fare amid climate change. Heat stress can kill mature coral reefs and curtail their regrowth. “Growth, reproduction and survival are the main things that we’re always looking at in terms of how healthy reefs are,” says marine biologist Kate Quigley of the Australian Institute of Marine Science. By modeling baby corals in 3-D, researchers can track how well they branch,…

Winter, that occasionally charming burden, is not shared equally, as Dave Grohl and Greg Kurstin reminded us on the eighth and final night of Hanukkah with their cover of Randy Newman’s “I Love LA.” Like previous covers in Season 3 of the Hanukkah Series, “I Love LA” was recorded live at Los Angeles’ Largo at the Coronet on December 5th. At the time they couldn’t have known that the midwest and northeast would be blitzed with snow storms at the end of the month. But right now, if you call one of those area home, it’s hard not take personally lyrics such…
The Fox X-Men movie universe will live again, in some form or fashion in Deadpool 3, which will co-star Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman in the roles they played to great success in that defunct film franchise. Patrick Stewart has already reprised his role as Professor Xavier from X-Men in the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness earlier this year. So who’s next?It doesn’t look like it will be the other actor to play Fox’s Professor X, James McAvoy. He told GQ that he has “definitely not got the call” to return for another go-around as Charles Xavier, although he also added “if I…
Why do true crime stories resonate so deeply? What draws me as both reader and writer are the stories that explore our humanity in the face of inhumanity. That’s what I found working on The Forever Witness (Dutton), my new bookabout one of the most enduring murder mysteries of the Pacific Northwest. It’s about the violent death of a young couple on a trip to Seattle, solved 30 years later by a powerful new crimefighting method known as genetic genealogy. I was captivated by the notion that you could innocently send off a vial of spit from a home DNA…

Photography courtesy of Gucci From twinning with Jared Leto to dismembered heads on the runway, it’s been a wild seven years. By Bernadette Morra Date November 23, 2022 Some are shocked. Others aren’t. Either way, the news that Alessandro Michele is leaving Gucci is rocking the fashion world. And in a week that also saw Raf Simons shutting his label, that world had already been knocked off its axis. Michele arrived at Gucci in 2015 with a bang, taking over from Frida Giannini who had carried Tom Ford’s sexy/suit-y legacy forward when he left the brand in the mid-oughts. But…
Binance has launched its native oracle service in a bid to simplify the process of loading already existing data on its native BNB blockchain. This will enable smart contracts on the blockchain to run on real-world inputs and outputs. Blockchains in themselves cannot verify the authenticity of the data loaded on them. Hence, oracle services are used to make sure that only accurate data is being used on decentralised finance (DeFi) applications based on specific blockchains. Oracles can also be bi-directional, allowing them to ‘send’ data to the outside world.“Blockchain oracles are a critical building block of the blockchain ecosystem.…
Christopher Nolan has not been hauled before the UN court at The Hague and, the odd Dunkirk pan aside, has never been accused of war crimes. This is important to know before we tell you that he recreated a nuclear explosion for Oppenheimer with practical (but not that practical) effects. Nolan’s love of practical effects has become famous, and for his last film, 2020’s Tenet, he bought and crashed a real 747 jet. When it came to Oppenheimer, the director spoke about the “huge challenge” of recreating the first-ever detonation of a nuclear weapon, codenamed ‘Trinity,’ to Total Film magazine (via Variety). “I think recreating the Trinity test without the use of computer graphics was a…

Legislation is failing to end gas flaring in Nigeria which is harming and environment and people’s health, a new study warns. Legal penalties for oil companies are ineffective and are not weighty enough to be a deterrent, making it cheaper and easier to pollute air and water. An expert has warned legislative loopholes that give the government discretionary powers to grant gas flaring permits corruption and can be abused by the oil companies. Nigeria currently contributes significantly to the total amount of greenhouse gases produced in Africa through emissions from its oil and gas industry in the Niger Delta. The…
Melodie Jeng Denim doesn’t get much more classic than a worn-in pair of Levi’s. The company’s been stitching together blue jeans for nearly two centuries, which means it’s had plenty of time to perfect a soft-but-sturdy fabric capable of outlasting the competition. With a long history in working-class America, the brand’s wide range of jeans, shorts, jackets, overalls, and skirts are well-made but reasonably priced—and unbelievably flattering for any body type. No wonder the denim’s been spotted on the likes of Hailey Bieber, Emma Chamberlain, Gigi and Bella Hadid, Selena Gomez, Kourtney Kardashian, Sydney Sweeney, Camila Cabello, and Kristen Stewart…and,…

Twitch and YouTube personality Nik Nocturnal is back to react to our Loud List of the 10 Greatest Deathcore Bands.“Loudwire released a video without my consent,” Nik accurately says. “I also made a list of Top 10 Greatest Deathcore Bands.

It seems that tensions are once again flaring up between two of Star Trek’s surviving co-stars. George Takei and William Shatner have butted heads in the past, and despite playing nice at press events and the like, it seems there’s still a lot of tension behind the scenes. For whatever reason, the two can’t seem to get along. Shatner thinks that Takei rides on the waves that Captain Kirk created, while Takei thinks Shatner is a total diva. Is either side justified? Who’s to say? It’s just unfortunate to see them fight.The most recent spat seems to have started earlier in November of this…

Many people today associate mistletoe with holiday kisses. But for centuries the plant was known more for its remarkable stickiness; ancient Greeks and Romans used gooey mistletoe berries for applications ranging from bird traps to skin ulcer ointment. Now biochemists are investigating whether mistletoe’s clinginess can provide a natural alternative to synthetic glues. For the parasitic mistletoe plant, stickiness is essential. Inside each berry are seeds coated in a mucuslike substance called viscin. After a bird gobbles up and digests a berry, it expels globs of seeds in strands of this substance, which drape over tree branches and glue the…
