How our brains interpret signals from within the body has a surprisingly big influence on the mind, an insight that is leading to new ways to tackle conditions like depression, anxiety and eating disorders Health 2 February 2022 By Caroline Williams Brett Ryder LYING in the dark, my senses are straining for inputs and finding none.

A team led by Maria Leptin has shown in the fruit fly Drosophila that autophagy, a mechanism of stress responses in cells, plays an important role in wound healing: When a wound heals, the process of autophagy is initiated and regulated by the protein complex TORC1. This is a newly discovered function of autophagy and the first evidence that autophagy controls the formation of syncytia (multinucleated cells). While syncytia are also formed during the development of muscles or the placenta, their role in wound healing and the involvement of autophagy are new discoveries. The article, ‘Autophagy-mediated plasma membrane removal promotes…
If you have fine hair, you’ve probably gone through your fair share of dry shampoo, fringes sticking to your face, and curls that fall out within minutes. Styling fine hair and experimenting with cuts in the search for volume can often be tricky to master.

Megan Thee Stallion is sitting down for her first television interview about allegedly being shot by rapper Tory Lanez. In a preview clip of her emotional interview with CBS Mornings, which airs Monday (April 25), the Houston rapper recounts the July 2020 incident in which she claims Lanez shot her in the foot following a party in the Hollywood Hills. “It was an argument, because I was ready to go and everybody else wasn’t ready to go. But that’s, like, normal friend stuff,” Megan tells co-host Gayle King. “We fuss about silly stuff all the time. But I never put…

What’s the story behind the story? What inspired you to write Dragon Fires Rising: Books 1-3: The Complete Box Set? Two things: One, I wanted to do a more lighthearted humorous fantasy tale than my usual epic fantasy stories because Covid has been so hard for everyone. Two, I wanted to play with the dominant racial power dynamic and so have a black female protagonist who is, by definition, the most beautiful woman in the world, and all these white knights would swoon at her feet. So while it is a funny tale, a turn-around of the “Dragon kidnaps princess”…

Russia has deployed military-trained dolphins to protect its Black Sea naval base in Crimea from underwater attack, new satellite images reveal.The images, taken by the U.S. satellite company Maxar and analyzed by the nonprofit professional military association U.S. Naval Institute, show that two dolphin pens were placed at the entrance to Sevastopol harbor around the beginning of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in February. The harbor, which sits at the southern tip of Crimea, is a major port and of vital military importance to Russia. While many of the Russian ships anchored there are safely out of missile range from Ukraine,…

A mosquito watches you through a lattice of microscopic lenses. You stare back, fly swatter in hand, closely tracking the bloodsucker with your humble single-lens eyes. But it turns out that the way you see each other—and the world—may have more in common than you might think.A study published last month in Science Advances found that inside mammalian eyes, mitochondria, the organelles that power cells, may serve a second role as microscopic lenses, helping to focus light on the photoreceptor pigments that convert the light into neural signals for the brain to interpret. The findings, which draw a striking parallel…
Back in March, the “Heardle” app, a variation on the popular “Wordle” online game, started to gain momentum with music fans. On a daily basis, the app posts the intro of a new song, giving players six tries to guess what the song is. But given that it pulls from a wide variety of genres, it may not always be the easiest to guess. So, for fans looking for a more specific experience, a number of branded Heardle games have started to pop up.For those not aware, Heardle breaks down the song’s intro into specific seconds-long segments. The object is…
It’s taken a very long time to get a Top Gun sequel to the screen. The original movie was the blockbuster of the year back in 1986. Maybe it was just a different era back then, or maybe Tom Cruise was just too busy doing other stuff, but a Top Gun 2 never happened. Eventually, Paramount did start work on a sequel and then, after years and years of development, the film finally goes into production only for a freaking pandemic to derail its release for a full two years.Finally, more than 30 years later, Top Gun: Maverick is ready to premiere. The movie was directed…

If you’re looking to control your sugar intake, or are on a low-sugar or low-carb diet, you may find it useful to know how much sugar is in your fruit. While fruit can be a nutrient-rich addition to a healthy and balanced diet, many people aren’t aware that different fruits contain different amounts of sugar. Fruits like grapefruit, apples, blackberries, strawberries and…

Earlier this year, GWAR announced that their latest album, The New Dark Ages, would come with a companion graphic novel titled GWAR in the Duoverse of Absurdity. But might that graphic novel now spawn off its own companion as well? That’s what The Berserker Blothar suggested while speaking with Robb Flynn on the No F’n Regrets podcast (heard below), and living up to the “absurdity” suggested in the graphic novel title, that companion EP might just be made up of country songs.In the new graphic novel, the band is being “sucked off into an alternate universe to do battle with their…

I have very particular taste when it comes to board games: I like active games, where something is always happening, the funnier the better, and games where there is a chance I can feel my intelligence validated (doesn’t always work for the best, this last one, but we keep trying). Games like Pictionary, Trivial Pursuit (is anyone still playing this?), Cards Against Humanity, or Clue are just my thing, and please don’t ask me to play Monopoly with you unless you want me to immediately leave. When someone explained to me how Dungeons & Dragons works, and as I explained…
Less than a week ago, Netflix dropped the six-part Anatomy of a Scandal. This week: Prime Video dishes the dirt in A Very British Scandal, which at half the length is twice the fun. Notice a gossipy trend here? With apologies (though not really) to TMZ, no one flings high-society mud with quite the savage glee of the Brits, and I’ve rarely seen a more corrosive display of mutual cruelty than in British Scandal (not to be confused with Prime Video’s 2018 A Very English Scandal, starring Hugh Grant). This taut and tawdry three-part docudrama from the prolific Sarah Phelps…
Josie Ford Va va vacuum Like many people who have difficulty distinguishing science fact from fiction, Feedback is anticipating with trepidation the rise of the sentient machines. We see the story recently reported by the BBC, “Robot vacuum cleaner escapes from Cambridge Travelodge”, as a kind of low-budget prequel. “The automated cleaner failed to stop at the front door of the hotel in Orchard Park in Cambridge on Thursday, and was still on the loose the following day,” the article informs us, emphasising the point made by observers, sensibly hiding on social media, that robotic vacuum cleaners have no natural…

“The seeking is a never-ending circle until one is satisfied,” Justin reflected, runically, in an email to me. “For me, that satisfaction was never really present until the theories of QAnon started emerging.”Yes, QAnon—the undead cosmology that still haunts the internet. Justin, a Brooklyn entrepreneur who once worked for TED, is best known for having been so jazzed about the QAnon-Trump conceit that he joined the Stop the Steal protest in Washington, DC, on January 6 last year. He now says he wouldn’t have gone if he’d known it was going to turn violent.I had seen a news story about…
