Queen insisted Harry and Meghan meet Charles, writes RICHARD KAY – Daily Mail

Only the weather was the same. A bright sun shone from a blue sky just as it did on that May morning almost four years ago when Prince Harry took his new bride home through cheering crowds to Windsor Castle in a horse drawn carriage.  This time, husband and wife retreated behind the blacked-out windows of a people carrier for the short drive from their former home, Frogmore Cottage, to the castle.  And instead of thousands of well-wishers lining the route there was a rather modest turn out of spectators gathering for the spectacle of the Maundy Thursday service at St George’s chapel.  Ahead of Harry and Meghan were two meetings of sombre gravity that will almost certainly have determined their long-term status within the Royal Family – as future participants or as mere observers.  Harry’s ...

Mental illness may raise risk of breakthrough COVID-19, study says – The Hill

Story at a glance Researchers at the University of California, San Francisco looked at data from 263,697 U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs patients who had completed their vaccines and had at least one COVID-19 test.  Slightly more than 51 percent received at least one psychiatric diagnosis within the last five years and 14.8 percent experienced breakthrough COVID-19.

Only 9% of Americans can properly read a nutrition label – Daily Mail

Americans are often advised to eat healthier, more nutritious foods in an effort to stifle the diabetes and the obesity epidemic striking the nation. Researchers find that many can not identify healthy foods in the grocery store aisle, though. A research team at Attest, a consumer research platform, found that when presented with multiple food options - all of varying levels of health and nutrition - only nine percent of people are able to correctly identify which was the healthiest. Even more worrying, 13 percent identified the least nutritious food option as the healthiest - more than the amount who properly identified the healthiest. Experts say that many are misled by labels on packaging like 'whole grain' and 'low calorie', and either do not bother to or cannot properly read the nutr...

Choose or Die review – gory Netflix video game horror – The Guardian

Horror films There’s a surprisingly nasty edge to this tolerable yet derivative wannabe franchise-starter about a cursed game from the 80s Fri 15 Apr 2022 12.26 EDT It’s strange that the silly but mostly tolerable horror Choose or Die was an acquisition rather than a homegrown Netflix original given how much it seems algorithmically modeled for the notoriously formula-obsessed platform. It stars Asa Butterfield, an in-house star thanks to the success of Sex Education. It’s contemporary-set but baked in 80s nostalgia, something that also inspires the aesthetic of the aforementioned comedy series as well as the entirety of long-running hit Stranger Things. It also focuses on a cursed video game, making it a close cousin to the streamer’s interactive Black Mirror hit Bandersnatch. It’s a ...
