It’s a hot day in the middle of July and a select group of journalists are taking a walking tour of Capernaum. At least, it feels like we could be in the Middle East — it’s a scorching 94 degrees! — but we’re really on The Chosen’s 80,000-square-foot Midlothian, Texas, set, located at the Salvation Army’s Camp Hoblitzelle.

(Photo Credit: StudioCanal) I hadn’t seen the Paddington movies until earlier this year in the lead-up to Paddington in Peru. I had heard a ton of praise for the second film from both critics and Pedro Pascal in The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent, and after being utterly charmed by director Paul King’s Wonka, I was excited to check them out. Thankfully, it’s a movie that absolutely lives up to the hype, and having revisited it thanks to the new Paddington 2 4K release from Warner Bros., it’s still an utter delight to rewatch. “Paddington, now happily settled with the…

RuM/CNTs (M = Cu, Rh, and Pd) composites size/composition. Credit: Ye Yixing A research team led by Prof. Liang Changhao from the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has developed a novel method for synthesizing carbon nanotube (CNT)-supported intermetallic RuM (M = Cu, Rh, and Pd) alloys dominated by sub-5 nm nanoparticles (NPs). Their findings are published in Advanced Science. Sub-5 nm Ru-based alloys have gained attention as promising electrochemical catalysts for water splitting. However, their synthesis has been constrained by thermodynamic immiscibility, which limits the development of a universally applicable preparation method. In this…
Hasn’t Will suffered enough? Apparently not. The spoilers for Will Trent Season 3 Episode 11 tease that Will accidentally shoots a child while apprehending a suspect and faces a tense internal investigation and the fallout afterward. That’s not even all of it. This episode looks very Will-centric as he deals with Marion’s reaction and feeling torn between his feelings for her and Angie. (ABC/Screenshot) Finally, Will’s friendship with Faith is tested, and we’re unsure if that’s because of this case or his alliance with Jeremy. Poor Will. He’s about to get tested. This Error of Judgement Will Cause Will Even…

Logan is a 9-year-old metalhead from New Jersey on a mission: he wants to see Slipknot live. And he’s not just asking — he’s making a full-scale academic argument with his homework.When Logan’s third-grade teacher assigned an opinion essay, he didn’t write about recess or video games. Instead, he used the opportunity to convince his mom that taking him to a Slipknot concert is not just a good idea — it’s a necessity. And apparently, this isn’t the first time he’s used his schoolwork to make his case.While Logan’s mom leans more toward folk, country and Broadway musicals, she told…
When Timothée Chalamet showed up in a butter-yellow Givenchy leather suit to the Oscars, I knew the implications. The color has been overlooked for some time now. It is the color of the sun, Post-its, runny egg yolks, and Big Bird. For most, it is too much—too cheery, too in-your-face, too bright. Nothing subtle is yellow. Chalamet is famously not very nonchalant. He would wear a yellow suit to the Oscars, and so he did.Timothée Chalamet wearing a yellow Givenchy suit at the 2025 Oscars.(Image credit: Getty Images)The return of butter yellow was written on the wall long before he…
Noise Master Buds were introduced in India in February. With these TWS earphones, the company ventures out of its budget segment and into a slightly more premium category. At a reasonably handsome price of Rs. 7,999, these headsets offer Bose-tuned audio and a total battery life of up to 44 hours to interested buyers.

As we shift into spring, we’ve started seeing everyone’s ideas of what the most notable books of the new season are. And we’ve got to say, there are some absolute bangers coming out within the next few months. For starters, there are books by heavy weights like Ocean Vuong, Suzanne Collins, Stephen Graham Jones, Tracy Deonn, and Karen Russel that have everything from shielf maidens to Indigenous vampires, to body horror brought about by climate change. Below is a sampling of the books Goodreads readers are most looking forward to for spring. Contemporary & Historical Fiction Wild Dark Shore by…
Scientists have finally solved the mystery of how the fossilized feathers of a 30,000-year-old vulture were preserved with such unprecedented levels of detail.The griffon vulture (Gyps fulvus), which was initially uncovered in the Colli Albani volcanic complex southeast of Rome, Italy, in 1889, was found in incredibly good condition — it even had traces of its delicate wing feathers and eyelids.Since the discovery, researchers have puzzled over how exactly the bird was so well-preserved. Now, in a new study published Tuesday (March 18) in the journal Geology, researchers suggest this rare preservation of such intricate details may be due to…

Countries vary in how stringently they regulate chemicals in tattoo inksIvanRiver/Shutterstock Whether it is a butterfly on your ankle or your football team’s logo across your back, tattoos have long been seen as a way of expressing individuality, as well as sometimes having cultural significance. Yet research is just starting to scratch the surface of their potential health effects. Tattoo pigments are made up of numerous chemicals. In the European Union, the Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH) legislation has set concentration limits for around 4000 compounds in such pigments, mostly due to cancer concerns.… View Original Source…

It was Juju Vera’s understated and timeless shell-shaped pendant that drew me into its artistry. With five delicate teardrop charms gently swaying beneath it and a long chain holding it from the top, this sterling silver piece rested confidently on the midriff of those in the know. It captured an aesthetic that balanced the classic and the avant-garde, with its antique-inspired design and absence of a logo only adding to its intrigue. This necklace, known as the Petra Shell, has quickly become the centerpiece of every It girl’s wardrobe. That said, it’s far from the only standout itemThe Stella earrings…

What’s the story behind the story? What inspired you to write Beautiful Beast (Bound to the Mafia Book 1)? I was inspired by Beauty and the Beast and other dark romance stories, mainly stories that feature demons or vampires falling in love with women. My book is a mafia romance but I love using those elements to give the book a darker feel even without supernatural things being present in the story. If you had to pick theme songs for the main characters of Beautiful Beast (Bound to the Mafia Book 1), what would they be? The theme song of…
Raman-MCR spectroscopy on oil droplets in water. Credit: Nature (2025). DOI: 10.1038/s41586-025-08702-y The behavior of water at hydrophobic interfaces has perplexed scientists for over a century, spanning chemistry, biology, materials science, geology, and engineering. Recent discoveries—such as the anomalous chemistry of water microdroplets and contact electro-catalysis—highlight the pivotal role of interfacial water. A new study published in Nature systematically resolves the disordered molecular structure and ultrahigh electrostatic fields (~40–90 MV/cm) at oil-water mesoscopic interfaces, overturning textbook assumptions about the “inert” nature of hydrophobic surfaces and opening new avenues for catalysis, biomedicine, and green energy. For decades, sum frequency generation (SFG)…
Half of the original contestants have now gone home on The Challenge: All Stars Rivals. On Wednesday (March 19) night’s new episode, it was Ashley Kelsey and Dario Medrano who found themselves packing their bags after being defeated in a puzzle elimination by Nany Gonzales and Turabi “Turbo” Çamkıran. They came pretty close to winning the daily challenge, which saw them coasting off of a cliff on a four-wheeler, but it was Adam Larson and Steve Meinke who got it done the fastest, and Ashley and Dario found themselves targeted in the house vote. Ashley and Dario had an interesting…
John Wick seemingly died at the end of John Wick: Chapter 4. And since then, Keanu Reeves has dismissed any and all talk about another John Wick sequel. Maybe he’s been doing that because it doesn’t matter if John Wick is dead or not — Lionsgate will still stick him in more movies anyway.For example, here he is prominently featured in the trailer for From the World of John Wick: Ballerina, a spinoff film that nominally stars Ana de Armas as another assassin in the same fictional universe. But the second half of the teaser is mostly about John Wick (Reeves) showing up to fight de Armas’…
