Rob Zombie’s love of The Munsters is well documented. One of his biggest hits is “Dragula,” which was named after Grandpa Munster’s dragster on the ’60s era series. And these days, Zombie is living out the dream going to work daily in sets built to reflect the neighborhood of the original series as he puts together a modern-era film version of The Munsters.Zombie has been very forthcoming with looks at the sets, details about casting and showing off some props while filming has been going on, but in one of his most recent postings, he’s actually shared visual film footage…

Author Simon James Green was scheduled to visit John Fisher School in South London for World Book Day in March. A few days before the visit, though, the Education Commission of Southwark Archdiocese released a statement saying that the visit was “outside the scope of what is permissible in a Catholic school,” presumably because the author is gay. The school’s governing body voted to go forward with the signing against the Archdiocese’s recommendation, which led to the diocese firing several governors (while others resigned) and overriding their vote, cancelling the visit. Now, the school is closed due to a teacher…

MECHANICAL MYSTERY “Wonder of the Ancient World,” by Tony Freeth, describes the Antikythera mechanism, a Greek astronomical calculation machine. As a biologist with an interest in engineering, I was amazed by the device’s construction. Just how did the ancients make it? I doubt they had tools such as lathelike machines to cut the gears, dividing heads to index them, accurately made drills, and so on. Gerald Legg Hurstpierpoint, England Now that the design of the Antikythera mechanism is understood, my question is: Did it really work? And if so, how was that feat accomplished? For a device of such complexity…
Everything you need to know about this buzzy footwear brand By Karoun Chahinian Date March 28, 2022 For just over a year now, I’ve dedicated an hour every day to moving my body.

During spring in the Pacific Northwest, meltwater from thawing snow rushes down rivers and the wind often blows hard. These forces spin the region’s many power turbines and generate a bounty of electricity at a time of mild temperatures and relatively low energy demand. But much of this seasonal surplus electricity—which could power air conditioners come summer—is lost because batteries cannot store it long enough. Researchers at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL), a Department of Energy national laboratory in Richland, Wash., are developing a battery that might solve this problem. In a recent paper published in Cell Reports Physical Science,…

ARGENTINA As ice fields in the Patagonian Andes shrink, the tectonic plates underneath them are simultaneously pushing upward. Researchers found that the heavy glaciers weigh down buoyant sections of mantle; when the ice melts, the ground below springs up rapidly. ICELAND The “Blue Blob,” a mysterious patch of frigid water in the northern Atlantic Ocean, appears to have slowed the melt rate of Iceland’s glaciers by up to 50 percent. But experts warn that unimpeded climate change may overcome this cooling effect by the 2050s. GABON Chimpanzees from the Rekambo community were seen applying crushed insects to their wounds and…

Of course, just because research is published in a journal instead of a preprint server doesn’t mean it’s inherently risk-free. But it does mean that any glaring dangers are more likely to be picked up in the reviewing process. “The key difference, really, between journals and the preprint server is the level of depth that the review is going into, and the journal publication process may be more likely to identify risks,” says Smith. The risks of open publishing don’t stop at biological research. In the AI field a similar movement toward openly sharing code and data means there’s potential for…

On Bosch: Legacy, Harry Bosch (a superlative Titus Welliver) may no longer be an LAPD detective, but luckily for fans of Bosch, he’s still driven to find justice for the aggrieved. As viewers find out in the May 6 premiere of the Amazon Freevee (formerly IMDb TV) spinoff, in the few years since political interference on the force led him to quit, he’s morphed into a private eye taking cases that include locating stolen property and missing heirs and uncovering murderous culprits. Below, Welliver, who’s also an EP on Legacy, which he calls “a continuation” rather than a sequel to…
The health of residents living alongside a bus route in Gothenburg, Sweden, became considerably better when hybrid buses were replaced by buses fully powered by electricity. Along with the noise levels there was a reduction of fatigue, day time sleepiness and low mood, a study at the University of Gothenburg shows. In the fall of 2019, all-electric buses were introduced on bus route 60 in Gothenburg. The implementation was linked to the ElectriCity project, with its participants from industry, research, and public agencies working for sustainable travel in an urban setting. In places, the roads along this bus route in…
There are a few jeans styles that, no matter what the denim trends are, plenty of people will keep in their wardrobes. Skinny jeans are one style (even if we don’t see so many people wearing them right now), and I’d argue that mom jeans are another. The style, which is a throwback ’80s style, is high-waisted with a looser fit around the thighs and then slightly tapered at the bottom.Of course, plenty of brands and designers have interpreted this look in their own way, and there are many jeans that are classed as “mom” which are high-waisted with slightly straighter legs.…

Some have had to halt operations because of shortages of hardware components. A few entrepreneurs have even been forced to sleep at their labs to ensure…
The lions and tigers and bears (and witches) of The Wizard of Oz have inspired endless spinoffs and adaptations — most famously, Gregory Maguire’s prequel novel Wicked, which Stephen Schwartz adapted into a beloved musical in 2003. Now, rich source material in mind, director Jon M. Chu has announced his upcoming film adaptation of the story, starring Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo, will be split into two parts. “As we prepared this production over the last year, it became increasingly clear that it would be impossible to wrestle the story of WICKED into a single film without doing some real damage…

In a recent interview, the director Robert Eggers reflected on the experience of helming his first potential blockbuster. The Northman, out now, is, he said, “literally an epic” in that it adapts an Icelandic revenge saga, and in that it cost more than $70 million. This budget allowed him to indulge in glitzy cinematic extravagance: The studio built him three whole villages and numerous viking ships. Eggers’ last film, The Lighthouse, cost a fraction of The Northman’s budget and wouldn’t have lost much of its power if he’d staged it all in one room.Yet Eggers also admitted that, had he…
