There she is, the new Black Panther. But who is behind the mask?The latest trailer for Black Panther: Wakanda Forever doesn’t say explicitly, although it does strongly hint that it’s Shuri (Letitia Wright), the sister of T’Challa, the previous Black Panther (played by the late Chadwick Boseman). Of course it could still be Lupita Nyong’o’s Nakia or Danai Gururia’s Okoye — or even Dominique Thorne’s Ironheart, I suppose. But it’s definitely one of the female members of the cast in that suit.Besides the first look at the new Black Panther’s costume, this trailer also gives us more info on the conflict…

What’s the story behind the story? What inspired you to write A Fighting Chance: A 40-Year Journey from My Birth until My Brother’s Death? My brother and I came from a very abusive, dysfunctional home. Our father was dealing with mental health issues and heavily medicating with alcohol. He was very mean and vicious to his whole family. My older brother didn’t make it out of that abusive situation. Neither did my younger brother or mom. They all have passed away. I have gone on to success. And now that my father has passed away, I feel safe to share…

Rather than helping, lessons may be encouraging pupils to dwell on negative feelings without the necessary support to address them Mind | Comment 17 August 2022 , updated 22 August 2022 By Lucy Foulkes Michelle D’urbano TEENAGERS are experiencing a mental health crisis. I am not just talking about the increase in mental health problems that have been reported in them over the past decade or so. I am talking about what UK schools are being asked to do in response. Many secondary schools in the UK – which educate those aged 11 up to 18 – now teach mental…
Is there anything as gratifying as treating yourself to a new pair of boots come autumn? Opening up the box, pulling out the stuffing and getting a whiff of that fresh-boot smell? Just me? Moving swiftly on… Still, there’s no denying that boots form a pretty integral part of our aesthetics in the colder months. Over the past few years, I’ve made a point of making sound boot investments, choosing styles that prioritise timelessness over anything too trendy. However, that doesn’t mean that some boots don’t start to feel dated after a time—even pairs I know are pretty classic can lose…
We’ve tested a lot of camera bags. Here are others that we really like but that have been eclipsed by our top picks.

A long-term study finds that seedling mortality increased when severe and prolonged drought occurred in Southeast Asian seasonally dry tropical forests, which are deemed more drought-tolerant than tropical rainforests. Global climate change may lead to more extreme weather events such as droughts. To predict the impact of climate change on tropical forests, it is necessary to understand more accurately the effects of drought. El Niño often reduces rainfall and causes drier forests in the tropical regions of Southeast Asia. Since tropical rainforests there usually experience rainfall year-round with no dry season, El Niño-induced drought increases tree mortality. Seasonally dry tropical…

Scientists analysing the effects of an organic compound on drug resistance bacteria have discovered how it can inhibit and kill a germ that causes serious illness or in some cases death. Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a type of bacteria, often found in hospital patients, which can lead to infections in the blood, lungs (pneumonia), or other parts of the body after surgery. Hydroquinine, an organic compound found in the bark of some trees, was recently found to have bacterial killing activity against the germ and several other clinically important bacteria, including Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, and Klebsiella pneumoniae. The team behind…
Photography Courtesy of ImaxTree With the use of unconventional materials and catwalk comedy, this season’s runways mastered the art of buzz. By Natalie Michie Date September 27, 2022 When things get tough, sometimes all you need is a good distraction. This was the unofficial tagline at Milan Fashion Week Spring 2023. From doppelgänger styling at Gucci to chaotic collapsing models at Avavav, shock-factor fashion was in full effect — and proved to be more powerful than ever. Of course, it wouldn’t be Fashion Week without nods to the current cultural climate. Across the Italian city, runways referenced the anxiety we’re…

The results of the trial, stopped early due to the significance of the findings, were presented in a late-breaking session at the World Stroke Congress and simultaneously published in The Lancet. Professor Craig Anderson, Director of Global Brain Health at The George Institute for Global Health, said the rapid emergence of this effect suggested the more aggressive approach was compromising the return of blood flow to the affected area. “Our study provides a strong indication that this increasingly common treatment strategy should now be avoided in clinical practice,” he said. Around 85 percent of strokes are ischaemic strokes, caused by…
The day that comfortable shoes came back in style was probably one of the happiest days of my life. OK, I’ll admit I’m being a little dramatic, but it really isn’t far from the truth. I love wearing comfortable shoes, whether it’s dad sneakers, strappy sandals (with lots of support), or most recently: clogs. I never thought I would be someone who was into clogs, but the Birkenstock Boston Soft Footbed Clog ($150–$155) completely changed my mind. (The colorway I own is currently sold out, but they’re also available in tons of other colors and styles.) You’ve probably seen your…
iPhone 14 series debuted recently during Apple’s ‘Far Out’ event in September. However, rumours surrounding the next iPhone lineup — the iPhone 15 — have already started surfacing. The lineup is believed to include the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max / iPhone 15 Ultra models. These models were previously expected to come with an upgraded lens on the main camera. However, analyst Ming-Chi Kuo now suggests that this might not be the case. He had also previously suggested that the high-end iPhone 15 models could arrive with solid-state buttons, instead of physical volume and power buttons.According to…
White Lung will soon be no more, but they’re going out with a bang: Today, they’ve shared another taste of their forthcoming final album Premonition with the pummeling single “If You’re Gone.” Vocalist Mish Barber-Way has become a mother two times over since White Lung’s last album Paradise, and she’s explained that Premonition deals with topics of birth and evolution. But “If You’re Gone” focuses on the rebirth that happens when a loved one — particularly one who raised you — is no longer with you. “Suicide was in the zeitgeist in many ways when I wrote this song,” Barber-Way said in a press…

What’s the story behind the story? What inspired you to write Where Is Sarah?? In 2020, at the height of the pandemic, I helped a friend during his house hunting journey. I went with him and his real estate agent to a house for sale in Fairfax, CA. The place needed a lot of work. As I toured the place, I noticed fingerpaint on the window sills and the real estate agent said it used to be a daycare and – boom. I had the seed from which this story grew. What’s your favorite genre to read? Is it the…

The Biden administration announced Wednesday that it would send nearly $1 billion to school districts to buy more than 2,300 electric school buses. The chunk of funds—from last year’s bipartisan infrastructure law—is an historic investment in the country’s young fleet of school buses that run on batteries. It will more than quadruple the current fleet of about 740. “This is a total game changer,” said Sue Gander, the director of an electric school-bus initiative at the World Resources Institute. “It’s certainly not everything that we need to really move the entire fleet forward, but such a huge step here.” The…
Researchers have long known that the chemical structure of the molecules we inhale influences what we smell. But in most cases, no one can figure out exactly how. Scientists have deciphered a few specific rules that govern how the nose and brain perceive an airborne molecule based on its characteristics. It has become clear that we quickly recognize some sulfur-containing compounds as the scent of garlic, for example, and certain ammonia-derived amines as a fishy odor. But these are exceptions. It turns out that structurally unrelated molecules can have similar scents. For example, hydrogen cyanide and larger, ring-shaped benzaldehyde both smell…
Netflix’s The Watcher tells the story of the Brannock family, who move into their new home in a well-to-do neighborhood only to receive ominous letters in the mail. The missives are from someone calling themselves “The Watcher,” who claims to be watching the Brannock’s house specifically. Created by Ryan Murphy, the creepy thriller follows father Dean Brannock (Bobby Cannavale), his wife Nora (Naomi Watts), and their two children as they’re terrorized by a shadowy figure. As more letters arrive at the house from The Watcher asking about their kids and the “young blood,” the couple tries to sell their home…
Earlier this month, the US Food and Drug Administration announced a nationwide shortage of immediate release amphetamine mixed salts. For many people who take this medication, the announcement just stated what they’ve known for months. Right now, it can be tricky, wildly inconvenient, and sometimes outright impossible to get hold of this drug, commonly referred to by its brand name Adderall. Pharmacies across the country do not have it in stock. People are rationing pills, driving for hours, and pleading with their doctors for alternative treatments. Drug shortages are not uncommon; there are over 200 happening right now in the United…
