Cluster headaches displayed a circadian pattern in 71% of people, peaking in late night and early morning, and were associated with two main circadian genes. Migraine attacks followed a circadian pattern in 50% of people, peaking from late morning to early evening, and…

via Lionsgate It used to be easy to mock Bruce Willis and his descent into the VOD doldrums where he’d show up in half a dozen bargain basement action thrillers per year until the truth came out. Diagnosed with aphasia – and then ultimately dementia – the Die Hard icon was simply trying to work as much as possible before he couldn’t live his dream of being an actor anymore. That paints the entire last decade and change of his filmography in an entirely different light, but sympathy isn’t the reason why the…

By Bobby Caina Calvan | Associated Press NEW YORK — A film buff from Oklahoma City, Elyssa Mann has scant time to waste, needing to cross just four more movies off her Oscars list before Sunday’s Academy Awards broadcast: Two animated films, one for cinematography and another for costume design. In the San Francisco Bay Area, Steve Tornello has just one left — the latest “Avatar” — before he can fairly judge all 10 of the best picture nominees. In the perfect multiverse, time would bend to allow movie fans to watch…

Foxconn wants to do for electric vehicles (EVs) what it has done with the iPhone, but first, it needs to find the next Apple – and fast. The Taiwanese contract manufacturer faces competition in the market for creating white-label EVs that can be tailor-made for clients, whether that's a major automaker or a delivery provider or any other company. And while the electronics giant brings established strengths to the mostly loss-making EV industry, Foxconn needs to win a big contract to prove it can ride the wave of…

With dozens of plans for experiments of various sizes and scopes needing to communicate with each other and Earth, the European Space Agency has opened a call for help in building the required suite of telecommunication services. Called “Moonlight,” the systemwill include a standardized Moon clock.Today,…

April will mark the 40th anniversary of Casio releasing one of the most recognizable and enduring brands in digital watches: the G-Shock. And because everything old is new and cool again, to commemorate the occasion, the company will be releasing an updated version of the original DW-5000C G-Shock model with some welcome modern upgrades.The idea for the G-Shock watch was born in 1981 when a Casio engineer wanted to create a timepiece that could not only survive the drop that broke his father’s pocket watchbut a drop from…

One of the many quality-of-life improvements Samsung added to One UI with the 5.1 update is an upgraded timer for the Clock app. Of course, timers need little or no introduction, but One UI 5.1 elevated this feature to a new level. One UI 5.1 users can now set multiple timers that run simultaneously. And this feature actually makes a whole lot of sense when you realize that people multitask and may need more than one timer at a time. It makes one wonder why this feature wasn’t available until now, but thankfully, it is a…

Exercise has the ability to imitate the molecular profile of muscles that have been subjected to Yamanaka factors, resulting in a molecular expression similar to that of younger cells.Evidence suggests that exercise creates a molecular profile in muscle that is consistent with the expression of youthful-promoting Yamanaka factors.A recent study published in the Journal of Physiology has further supported the idea that exercise can help maintain youthful qualities in aging organisms. This research builds upon earlier…
