Disney fires back against Scarlett Johansson’s Black Widow lawsuit – The Verge

Disney has filed a motion to have Scarlett Johansson’s lawsuit against the company moved to private arbitration, the latest in the ongoing saga of her complaint against the company over Black Widow’s streaming release. Disney’s lawyers filed the motion Friday in Los Angeles Superior Court on the grounds that Periwinkle Entertainment, which negotiated her deal, agreed that any claims related to her role in the Marvel film would be handled in confidential arbitration. But the motion also took several swipes at Johansson’s complaint that argued Marvel, compelled by its parent company Disney, breached an agreement when Black Widow debuted on Disney Plus through Premier Access the same day that it premiered in theaters. The Hollywood Reporter earlier reported the motion. Johansson’s co...

Holidaymakers with plans to visit Greece, and those who are already there, face a nervous wait to see if the Mediterranean destination can keep its place on the amber list at the next traffic light review, expected on Wednesday. The holiday hotspot has been amber, which allows for quarantine-free travel for the fully vaccinated, since foreign travel restarted in May.  Greece recently suffered a spike in Covid cases.

The Walking Deads Jeffrey Dean Morgan Explains Last Nights Twist – Gizmodo

Negan (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) is very tired of having guns pointed at him. So am I.Image: Josh Stringer/AMC The Walking Dead’s Negan hasn’t always made the right decisions; for instance, there was the time he ruled as a bloodthirsty, post-apocalyptic tyrant and murdered dozens of people. Since then, though, he’s been trying to become a better person... emphasis on the word trying, as last night’s season 11 premiere showed. Still, actor Jeffrey Dean Morgan doesn’t think you should have been surprised. Here’s the set-up: Maggie leads a group of people through the DC Metro subway system in hopes of reaching her old, abandoned settlement Meridian and its stores of food. Surprisingly, she brings Negan, the detested killer of her husband Glenn, on the trip. Negan’s been trying to reform him...

Another pandemic on the scale of Covid-19 is likely to strike within the next 60 YEARS, study warns – Daily Mail

Another pandemic on the scale of Covid-19 is likely to strike the world within the next 60 years, researchers have warned, and they could become much more common. Covid-19 is one of the deadliest viral outbreaks in more than a century, according to a team led by experts from the University of Padua in Italy, who studied the spread of diseases around the world over the past 400 years to predict future risk. They found that statistically, extreme pandemics aren't as rare as previously assumed, becoming more likely, and the next one will happen by 2080. The US researchers found that the likelihood of a pandemic with similar impact to Covid-19, and on a similar global scale, is about two per cent in any year. This means that someone born in the year 2000 would have about a 38 per cent chance ...

Study shows how sitting for 8 hours a day can affect your stroke risk – CNN

People who reported sitting eight or more hours daily and were not very physically active otherwise were seven times more at risk of having a stroke than people who spent fewer than four hours being sedentary and at least 10 minutes exercising each day, according to a study published in Stroke from the American Heart Association. Researchers included the health information of 143,000 adults from the Canadian Community Health Survey in their analysis. The scientists followed the participants, who were 40 years and older with no prior history of stroke, for an average of 9.4 years. "Sedentary time is thought to impair glucose, lipid metabolism and blood flow, and increase inflammation in the body," said lead study author Dr. Raed Joundi, clinical scholar at McMaster University in Ontari...
