On April 4, Donald Trump was indicted and charged with 34 counts of falsifying business records in the first degree. Even before the charges were officially read, Republicans were in high dudgeon, screaming about the unfairness of it all and the unprecedented nature of these charges. On the one hand, they’re right: It’s unusual for a former resident of the White House to be facing charges that could potentially end with years in prison. On the other hand, they’re dead wrong. Because if there’s anything that we know about Donald Trump... Читать дальше...

Does The Last of Us send your gaming PC into a zombie-like shuffle? Do the advanced Unreal options in Fortnite make you search for the nearest lovingly-rendered bush to hide in? Do you watch videos of the new Overdrive Mode in Cyberpunk on YouTube at 4K/60, because you know actually trying to run it on your hardware would be a violation of your home’s fire insurance policy? If so, then AMD would like a word: It thinks the solution is a new graphics card, with a lot more video memory than the competition. Читать дальше...

The skin is the body's first line of defense against the environment, particularly against pathogens, chemicals, and allergens. It is now known that a class of biological molecules called acylceramides and their metabolites, protein-bound ceramides, are essential to the formation of this barrier. The outermost tissues of the mouth are closely related to the skin and have similar functions—to create an oral barrier. However, little is known about the role and importance of acylceramides and protein-bound ceramides in the oral barrier.

Bleecker Street
On the sheer strength of its delightfully dopey poster alone, Mafia Mamma (in theaters Friday), was one of my most anticipated movies of the year. Really, what’s not to appreciate? Toni Collette—the titular Mafia Mamma in question—sits with an impish smirk on her face, sprawled out before a bottle of wine and a smoking gun. She is flanked by two tall, similarly gun-toting men, whose faces are cut off from the artwork. Who cares about them? This is about her: the suburban mom turned mafia don... Читать дальше...
Casa Batlló is a homage to the light of the Mediterranean: its light, shadow, and colors of the sky and sea. The central courtyard captures all that Mediterranean light and distributes it vertically to all the corners of the house, no matter how remote they are. The color gradation from darker to lighter blue doses the light in its vertical travel and makes sure it does not lose its pigments.
