U.S.-Led Intervention Can Bring Peace to the Middle East
The current humanitarian and political disaster unfolding in Israel and the Palestinian territories requires immediate international intervention. This intervention will not succeed unless it also aims to break the endless cycle of violence and ensuring long-term regional stability. After decades of conflict, it is clear the parties are unable to reach a resolution without help. The Oslo Peace Process initiated in 1993 is definitively over. What is required now is a new paradigm, one which will resolve the Palestinian-Israeli conflict and ensure stability in the Middle East once and for all.
Whats With All the Leaked Black Friday Ads?
Daniel Acker / Bloomberg via Getty Images Retailers generally avoid publicizing their Black Friday specials far in advance because of the potential of hurting sales before the big day arrives. Who, for instance, would buy a 42-inch plasma screen RCA TV for $450 today when they know it’ll be on sale for $199 in a couple of weeks?
Yet shoppers are already facing such scenarios, thanks to the widespread proliferation of leaked Black Friday ads.
Whitney Movie: Lifetime's Costume Designer Talks Her Iconic Looks
While creating the outfits for Whitney, Lifetime’s Whitney Houston movie that airs Saturday night, costume designer Mona May ran into one of the most notorious foes in the business: shoulder pads.
“When we look at shoulder pads that were worn in the 1980s and early ‘90s, you almost couldn’t wear them now because you would look like a flying nun,” says May, who is also the costume designer behind films such as Clueless and Romy and Michele’s High School Reunion.
Why a Russian 'Spy Plane' Flying Over the Midwest Is Totally Normal
It reads like something out of a conspiracy theory. On Tuesday, Russia sent a surveillance plane over the Midwest, and the U.S. military didn’t do anything to stop it.
Keen observers spotted the plane, a Tupolev Tu-154M, on commercial flight trackers as it entered U.S. airspace on Aug. 11 and flew past Dayton, Ohio and then west over Chicago and Minneapolis.
The story was all picked up by local news outlets, which published spooky headlines like, “Russian spy plane spotted flying over Chicago.
Why Do Songs Get Stuck in Your Head?
You can’t walk into the office without Rihanna’s voice singing “work work work work work work” in your head. And that one line from Lady Gaga’s “Bad Romance” still makes you want to scream.
These are commonly known as earworm songs—those sticky tunes that continue to play in your head long after you wish you could skip to the next track. Experts call them “involuntary musical imagery.” And more than 90% of adults report hearing them on a weekly (if not daily) basis, finds a recent study in the journal Psychology of Music.
Why Latin American Leaders Are Obsessed With TikTok
Hands held behind their heads, the prisoners in the video sprint down metal steps and into a massive concrete building. As dramatic music plays, the camera pans over thousands of men, arrayed in neat rows, clad only in white shorts, their heads shaved and bodies tattooed. High definition close-ups show their eyes glinting as they press their foreheads to their knees, before they are herded out by armed guards.
The footage shows the round-up of thousands of gang members in El Salvador’s newly opened “mega prison.
'The Veil' Calamitously Miscasts Elisabeth Moss: TV Review
If there is any conversation around the new FX spy thriller The Veil, I fear it will be about Elisabeth Moss’s British accent. It isn’t a good one; it’s generic, with too many theatrical stresses—a voice that calls too much attention to itself. An over-the-top accent is easy to mock. But it’s only one small part of the show’s fatal problem: a star who is calamitously miscast.
Moss is a virtuosic actor with a broad range.
