The Bering Strait separates Alaska and RussiaOcean Color/OB.DAAC/OBPG/NASA It would be an engineering project on a truly epic scale, but we may one day need to consider building a dam between Alaska and eastern Russia. The audacious proposal would be designed to stave off the worst consequences of the collapse of a vital ocean current, and researchers have been mulling it over this week at a major conference. The idea comes from Jelle Soons and his colleague Henk Dijkstra at the University of Utrecht in the Netherlands, who study the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation or AMOC.

Slim-fit pants have had a great resurgence in the last few years (whether we like it or not). Cigarette pants and even capri pants have been at the forefront of pant trends lately, but some fashion people may be growing fatigued of the restrictions that tighter pants have. Emma Roberts may be one of them. She was just spotted in NYC wearing the absolute opposite of cigarette pants for spring. While on a walk in the city, she sported a classic navy Adidas tee with red Adidas Gazelle sneakers styled with a pair of baggy, low-rise khaki pants. She kept…

Courtesy of Starz This week’s “Outlander” marked two occasions that don’t come around every day: The Starz series’ 100th episode, and James Alexander Malcolm MacKenzie Fraser’s saying he’s sorry. The historical drama’s penultimate episode ever spent a significant amount of time with David Berry’s Lord John Grey, who was kidnapped at the end of the previous hour. Capt. Ezekiel Richardson planned to blackmail Grey by sending evidence of Grey’s homosexuality to his brother, Hal, the Duke of Pardloe. (There was a whole time-travel element to the gambit, as well: For full details, read our recap.)…

A man’s lower jaw recovered from a medieval church in Aberdeen reveals the oldest known use of a dental bridge in Scotland, a new study finds. The gold wire, called a ligature, was installed around two teeth about 500 years ago to span the gap created by a lost tooth.”The application of the ligature would likely have caused some discomfort during the procedure,” Rebecca Crozier, a bioarchaeologist at the University of Aberdeen and co-author of the new study on the jawbone, told Live Science in an email. But the man, who was middle-aged when he died between 1460 and 1670,…

Within a short time of being introduced to the budding kabuki performer at the centre of Lee Sang-il’s hit Japanese film Kokuho, a character cuttingly offers an observation about his trajectory: “Your beautiful face might consume you.” These words, paired with the jealousy-tinged gazes of everyone in the kabuki game as Kikuo embeds himself in this realm of traditional theatre, are those that come to define his career as a kabuki actor.It goes beyond actor Ryo Yoshizawa’s lovely face, but the way he performs for both the audiences and the camera itself, his emotions transcending the kumadori make-up these actors wear. Through his…

As someone who is constantly on top of the latest nail trends, I always look forward to summer manicures. It’s a time when people like to go a little bit bolder with colors and more playful with designs. And although I personally prefer neutral nails, I can’t help but cave to the influence that comes with warmer weather.One trend I’m already seeing take off is revamped French manicures, and honestly, I’m not mad at it. There’s something undeniably chic about taking a classic manicure and giving it a refresh in a way that feels fun but also elevated. And the…
Brian Barrett: This is the first time I’ve thought about contact tracing in many years, and I was so happy not thinking about it for so long, because it is such a complicated process and something that is really hard work to do. Emily, given all of that, what is the level of concern here, given what the World Health Organization has said and other organizations? It sounds like cautious about it, but maybe not freak out time yet, but I defer to you because maybe that’s just me trying to make myself feel better.Emily Mullin: No, I think you’re…
What’s the story behind the story? What inspired you to write this book? The story behind the story was a collision of two worlds. While I was in the middle of grieving my brother’s passing, I discovered I was being review-bombed by people who had never read my work. I was helpless to stop it; my focus was on my family, and the platform’s “librarians” offered no real protection. It made me realize how easily words can be used as weapons. I began to wonder: What happens when a creator, already pushed to the edge by life, is finally pushed…

The Golden Globes recently updated its timeline and guidelines regarding the use of AI in movies and TV shows and their eligibility for awards.

Tied to the Costume Institute’s “Costume Art” exhibition, celebrities like co-chair Beyoncé, Met Gala veterans Rihanna and Janelle Monáe, as well as breakout star Chase Infiniti all showed up ready to prove the point, each channeling their inner art connoisseur.

It’s a welcome gesture after the 2025 Met Gala theme “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style,” which celebrated Black designers. The continuation sends the message that our identity is…
