Jada Pinkett Smith Denies August Alsina Claims That Will Smith Gave His “Blessing” for Their Relationship – E! NEWS

Albert L. Ortega/Getty Images, Instagram Alsina continued to pour his heart out, telling Yee, "I really loved a person, I experienced that. I know what that feels like and some people never get that in this lifetime, so I know that I'm completely blessed." As for why Alsina stayed silent about the alleged relationship, "I never want to be the person to cause confusion because I love these people," he said. "I really genuinely do and I have literally never been in love in that kind of a way, so much so that being intertwined in that way—walking away from it butchered me." He further said that the alleged split "probably will be the hardest thing that I've ever experienced in this lifetime." "I want to honor myself and I want to honor my authenticity," Alsina said. "If honoring my authenti...

Lego Art posters announced with Star Wars, Iron Man, and more – The Verge

Lego’s next line of sets offers builders multiple ways to recreate pop culture icons, including Darth Vader and Marilyn Monroe. Lego Art is a lineup of portrait creations designed for adult builders. Each set features small, bead-size pieces and a canvas that you use to piece together a pop art poster. There are four sets currently in the Lego Art lineup: Andy Warhol’s Marilyn Monroe, portraits of the members of The Beatles, a set featuring various versions of Iron Man’s suit, and a Star Wars set based on popular villains. There isn’t just one way to create these portraits, either — Lego says each set can be reimagined “in a number of different ways.” For example, if you purchase The Sith set, you can recreate one of three members from the dark side of the force: Darth Vader,...

Meghan Markle says UK made £1bn out of wedding to Prince Harry – Daily Mail

The Duchess of Sussex has claimed that her royal wedding to Prince Harry at Windsor Castle raised more than £1billion in tourism revenue for Britain. Meghan Markle also said the income generated for the public purse 'far outweighed' the contribution of taxpayers' money towards crowd security in May 2018. The claim was made within the latest documents released as part of her High Court battle against The Mail On Sunday over an article which reproduced parts of a letter she had sent to her father Thomas Markle in August 2018.  UK taxpayers contributed to the estimated £32million cost of the wedding, although the church service, flowers and reception were paid for by the Royal Family. The majority of the estimated figure - £30million - was funded by the taxpayer and mostly spent on security ...

Infant sleep issues linked to mental health problems in adolescents, study suggests – CNN

A study of 7,155 children in the United Kingdom found that waking up frequently during the night and irregular sleep routines as babies and toddlers was linked to psychotic experiences in children ages 12 and 13. Also, children who slept for shorter periods at night were more likely to be associated with borderline personality disorder at ages 11 and 12. The research, which published Wednesday in the journal JAMA Psychiatry, was the first time possible links between early childhood sleep problems and adolescent psychotic experiences and borderline personality disorder (BPD) symptoms have been examined. "We know from previous research that persistent nightmares in children have been associated with both psychosis and borderline personality disorder," said lead author Isabel Morales-Mun...

Coronavirus autopsies: A story of 38 brains, 87 lungs and 42 hearts – The Washington Post

In dengue, a mosquito-borne tropical disease, she learned, the virus appeared to destroy these cells, which produce platelets, leading to uncontrolled bleeding. The novel coronavirus seemed to amplify their effect, causing dangerous clotting. She was struck by the parallels: “Covid-19 and dengue sound really different, but the cells that are involved are similar.” Autopsies have long been a source of breakthroughs in understanding new diseases, from HIV/AIDS and Ebola to Lassa fever — and the medical community is counting on them to do the same for covid-19, the disease caused by the coronavirus. With a vaccine probably many months away in even the most optimistic scenarios, autopsies are becoming a critical source of information for research into possible treatments. When the pandemic...

Little evidence that protests spread coronavirus in US – The Associated Press

NEW YORK (AP) — There is little evidence that the protests that erupted after George Floyd’s death caused a significant increase in U.S. coronavirus infections, according to public health experts. If the protests had driven an explosion in cases, experts say, the jumps would have started to become apparent within two weeks — and perhaps as early as five days. But that didn’t happen in many cities with the largest protests, including New York, Chicago, Minneapolis, and Washington, D.C. In what’s considered the first systematic look at the question, a team of economists determined that only one of 13 cities involved in the earliest wave of protests after Memorial Day had an increase that would fit the pattern. It was Phoenix, where experts say cases and hospitalizations surged after a dec...

ACL Festival canceled for 2020 – KXAN.com

AUSTIN (KXAN) — The Austin City Limits Music Festival has been canceled for 2020 because of the coronavirus pandemic, organizers wrote in a release Wednesday. “We would have loved to put on another memorable show this year, however, with the uncertainty surrounding the current situation in Texas, this decision is the only responsible solution,” it wrote. “The health and safety of our fans, artists, partners, staff and the entire Austin community remains our highest priority.” ACL Fest says it will return to Zilker Park during two weekends in October 2021, which will coincide with its 20th-anniversary celebration. It says those who already bought tickets for this year should hold on to them “to lock in access to next year’s festival at 2019 prices,” or they can ge...
