It hasn’t been 3,000 years since the last George Miller movie, but it’s still been a while. And that previous film was Mad Max: Fury Road, the kind of mind-blowing cinematic vision that makes you desperate to see what the man who made it will do next.For Miller, his next film — after seven long years of waiting — is Three Thousand Years of Longing, a story about a woman, played by Tilda Swinton, who buys a lamp that happens to contain a genie, played by Idris Elba. But is having a genie all that it’s cracked up to be? As the…

What ingredients should you look for when purchasing a teeth whitening kit? “Hydrogen peroxide, the same enamel-safe ingredient dentists use for teeth whitening, is the main ingredient consumers should look for,” says Venneri. “For a teeth-whitening kit to be effective–meaning it attacks both extrinsic and intrinsic stains to bleach teeth beyond their natural color–it must contain one of two active ingredients: hydrogen peroxide (fast-acting, but increased sensitivity) or carbamide peroxide (slower-acting, but less sensitivity),” says Dr. Apa. You should also look for ingredients like peroxide droplets and potassium nitrate, which help to reduce sensitivity. Kits with LED lights can help…

We now know of more than 5,000 exoplanets beyond the solar system. What we really understand about each of these worlds, though, is barely anything at all. Most of them have been seen only indirectly from their shadows as they cross in front of the stars they orbit. The few that researchers have managed to actually take a picture of—that is, to directly image using light emanating from the planets themselves—appear as little more than monochromatic dots even in the very best current telescopes. And so far all of those directly imaged worlds are among the brightest, largest and least…

Credit: Unsplash/CC0 Public Domain Business Intelligence (BI) and analytics play a key role in strategy work. However, business intelligence is not just a data mass that supplements strategy or a self-evident prop, but, together with the predictions generated by new algorithms and computational models, it can even act as a driving force or “prime mover” in strategy formation, according to Yassine Talaoui’s doctoral thesis at the University of Vaasa. Business intelligence is needed to help firms sustain their competitive advantage and understand the behavior of their employees. “The volumes of data are of little to no value for firms unless…

In general, the guideline for applying body lotion is pretty simple. “I recommend applying body lotion daily,” Wesley says. “If recently showered, the best time to apply is within three to five minutes after a bath or shower to help trap moisture in and restore the skin barrier that may have been disrupted by soap or cleansers.”While it seems straightforward, there are some mistakes you can make with body lotion. Wesley outlined these three for me:1. Not Applying Enough: Don’t be stingy with the stuff. Of course, you don’t need to empty the whole bottle onto your body, but be generous…

Changes in plant ranges from the pre-PETM to PETM mapped on simplified Köppen climate types. Credit: University of Melbourne Around 56 million years ago, Earth’s climate underwent a major climatic transition. A huge release of carbon into the ocean and atmosphere raised atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) concentrations—which meant temperatures going up by 5 to 8°C and rising sea levels. Sound familiar? This event, called the Paleocene–Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM), happened over the course of a few tens of thousands of years, but the causes and consequences of this transition are still widely debated. Some of the hypothesized causes of the…
