As a fashion editor, I’m always on the look out for those special pieces that truly make your wardrobe work harder. You know, those easy to wear classics you can turn to on any given morning and feel 100% confident in. Usually the sweet spot is somewhere between making you feel polished but still comfortable, like the perfect wide-leg trouser for example, or a chic knit dress. Sometimes, these items require a bit more of an investment, especially when you want guaranteed quality that will last for many seasons to come. Brands like Frankie Shop, Totême, or even The Row…

The villain of the first Black Panther, Erik Killmonger (played by Michael B. Jordan), definitely died in the first movie. But what does death even mean at Marvel at this point? Professor X died in Logan and he showed up in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. How many times has Loki died only to be resurrected? It’s a lot.With the death of the great Chadwick Boseman, that leaves a major hole to fill at the center of Black Panther: Wakanda Forever — and that’s why we think a resurrected Killmonger could be one of the characters to do that. In our latest Black Panther video,…

Testosterone supplements are often marketed as an easy way to boost testosterone levels, increase your sex drive, improve sexual performance and help with building muscle. These claims may sound impressive, but in many cases there isn’t enough scientific evidence to support them. So do testosterone supplements really work? And, if so, which ones are the most effective? Testosterone is the main male sex hormone responsible for the development of characteristics people typically associate with masculinity, such as facial hair and a deeper voice. It’s much more than that, though. “Testosterone is important for a range of body functions,” says (opens in new…

It seems the dreaded “skimpflation” is even making its way over to your beloved streaming services. Disney+, Hulu, and ESPN+ are all seeing price hikes. Streaming services raising their prices and being modified to include new tiers is nothing new, but people really aren’t too excited about this one. Before, Disney+ was a flat rate of $7.99. Now, that structure is changing.Hulu might be one of the worst offenders out of any streaming service. Upon launch, it merely followed an ad-supported model. Shortly thereafter, it became a subscription-based service. After that, it split itself into tiers, including a cheaper ad-supported…

Getting a better handle on the prevalence of ship tracks has a two-fold utility. For one, the clouds betray a ship’s emissions: A captain might lie to regulators about what kind of fuel they’re burning, but the sky above won’t. “If we can measure individual ship tracks, and we can attach that ship track to an individual ship, then we can know if a ship is emitting a lot of pollution,” says Yuan. “Then we know that probably it’s not burning clean fuel.”And two, pollution plays a large—and largely understudied—role in climate change. Ship emissions are terrible for the environment…

Since the inception of streaming movies, Netflix has been the industry leader. They essentially popularized the concept when they transitioned their DVD by mail business to stream movies directly to customers’ homes. And since that move began in 2007, they’ve been number one. To some, the word “Netflix” is almost synonymous with streaming, the same way people interchangeably use “tissues” and “Kleenex.”But the competition for subscriptions has grown fiercer and fiercer in recent years, with many new services all fighting for the same customers, including Amazon’s Prime Video, Peacock, Paramount+, and Disney. And when Disney announced its quarterly earnings results to its…

Scientists had long wondered how woodpeckers can repeatedly pound their beaks against tree trunks without doing damage to their brains. This led to the notion that their skulls must act like shock-absorbing helmets. Now, researchers reporting in the journal Current Biology on July 14 have refuted this notion, saying that their heads act more like stiff hammers. In fact, their calculations show that any shock absorbance would hinder the woodpeckers’ pecking abilities. “By analyzing high-speed videos of three species of woodpeckers, we found that woodpeckers do not absorb the shock of the impact with the tree,” says Sam Van Wassenbergh…

The first half of the ’80s was a transitional period for rock and metal, as many key ’70s artists relinquished traditional instrumentation, audacious songwriting and organic production in favor of more accessible and synthetic approaches.All the while, the rise of glam rock/metal, dance-pop, contemporary R&B and new wave demonstrated that mainstream tastes were shifting.Of course, the early part of the decade – and 1982, in particular – also saw plenty of seminal groups releasing great albums (Iron Maiden’s The Number of the Beast, Judas Priest’s Screaming for Vengeance and Scorpions’ Blackout, to name a few).With that in mind, we’ve chosen 10…

The star Betelgeuse visibly dimmed in 2019. Now, a new analysis reveals why: Betelgeuse blew out and is still recovering. The red supergiant star, which is about 530 light-years from Earth, is among the brightest in the night sky. The star forms the shoulder of the constellation Orion (The Hunter). It’s also geriatric: Betelgeuse is nearing the end of its stellar life and will eventually explode in a supernova visible from Earth, though it might take another 100,000 years, according to 2021 research. In late 2019, Betelgeuse’s light  started to dim.
