100 Bewildering Hours at Cannes – Vulture

Bong Joon Ho, jury member.  Photo: Kate Green/Getty Images In the days leading up to the 74th annual Cannes Film Festival, I begin to wonder: Am I willing to risk becoming grievously ill in the name of cinema? COVID-19 numbers are steadily climbing across Europe, with the mysterious Delta variant seeming to evade the vaccines more successfully than its older, weaker brethren; meanwhile, I am readying myself to sit in crowded, windowless rooms for 12 days straight with thousands of strangers whose vaccination status will remain unknown to me and many of whom are French, i.e., give no fucks. As I roam New York City bu...

Ben Affleck Smiling Over at Jennifer Lopez on Their Drive Home Is the Only Happily Ever After We Need – Yahoo Entertainment

Yesterday was another sunny day in Los Angeles, which meant that it was the perfect time for paparazzi to capture more photos of Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck together. The couple was spotted yesterday sitting in Los Angeles traffic with Affleck behind the wheel of the car and Lopez tilting her head back and relaxing. While the traffic on iconic Sunset Boulevard may have been a frustration for each and every driver, Affleck made the most of it by glancing affectionately over at Lopez while her eyes were closed. The magic of the moment, however, was interrupted once Affleck and Lopez spotted the paparazzi snapping photos from a nearby car (see Page Six photos here). This is the latest outing for “Bennifer” 2.0 over the course of their recent rekindled romance, which seemingly began back i...

Police: 2 People Died At Former Versace Mansion In Apparent Double Suicide – HuffPost

On Wednesday, two people were found dead in a South Florida hotel room at the former Versace Mansion, police announced.  Miami Beach Police said in a tweet Thursday that a preliminary investigation into the deaths suggests they were a double suicide, but a medical examiner will have the final say on the causes of death.  “At 1:21 p.m., MBPD responded to 1116 Ocean Drive after receiving a call from housekeeping advising of two deceased males,” Miami Beach police tweeted on Wednesday. The same day, authorities announced they’d opened an investigation. The names of the two victims have not been released. The bodies were discovered just a day before the 24th anniversary of fashion designer Gianni Versace’s assassination. Versace’s former home has since been converted to a hotel now kn...

Dozens of Vaccinated Residents Have Died of COVID in Mass.: What to Know About Breakthrough Cases – NBC10 Boston

Nearly 80 people have died with COVID-19 in Massachusetts even though they were fully vaccinated as the more contagious Delta variant continues to spread. These breakthrough cases where fully vaccinated individuals test positive for coronavirus have so far been rare, but are possible. Here's what you need to know about breakthrough cases in Massachusetts: How many breakthrough COVID cases are there in Massachusetts? Public health officials have tracked 4,450 "breakthrough" cases of COVID-19 among Massachusetts residents fully vaccinated against the disease, representing about one-tenth of 1% of the roughly 4.2 million people immunized. About 92% of the infections in vaccinated residents did not require hospitalizations, while 303 people, or 6.8%, were hospi...

Study: Alcohol Linked to More Than 700,000 Cancer Cases Worldwide Every Year – Gizmodo

Photo: Chris Furlong (Getty Images) New research this week is the latest to find that alcohol use is a major cancer risk, one that people aren’t necessarily too aware of. The study estimated that over 700,000 cases of cancer worldwide can be attributed to alcohol annually. The research, published in Lancet Oncology, was conducted by scientists in North America, Europe, and Africa. It’s meant to be an update to previous estimates of the cancer burden linked to alcohol use. For this study, the authors focused on cancers where past research has regularly found a strong link between alcohol use and later cancer risk, such as liver cancer. But it often takes time between exposure to something cancer-causing and a cancer linked to it to become noticeable. So for their calculations, the gro...

Sacramento County recommends masks indoors as delta variant of COVID-19 spreads – KCRA Sacramento

Sacramento County has become the latest California county to recommend that vaccinated people wear masks indoors in public places amid concerns about the fast spread of the delta variant of COVID-19. "While cases continue to surge and until vaccination rates have increased in Sacramento County, vaccinated residents are strongly recommended to wear masks in indoor settings where vaccination verification is not required and the vaccination status of others is unknown," a Thursday release from Sacramento County said. "For example, in a workplace where employee rules allow for no masking after self-attestation of vaccination status, masks do not need to be worn by those who are vaccinated. But in a public space such as a grocery store or restaurant, masks are strongly recommended, regard...
