NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! When President Trump traveled to China in 2017, he handed Xi Jinping a list of names he wanted freed. My parents were on it.That moment mattered. As China’s internment campaign in the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region was beginning, my parents were vulnerable because I had spoken out in the United States about the Chinese Communist Party’s abuses. Their names, placed directly before Xi by the President of the United States, sent a signal that they were not invisible.But a name on a list matters only if a president keeps pressing. My mother…
Neil Batlivala has spent seven years building a healthcare company that most of the tech industry has never heard of and that serves a patient population most of Silicon Valley ignores. But last month, that work put him at the center of something much bigger. His company, Pair Team, announced on April 30 it had been accepted into ACCESS, a Medicare program — as one of 150 participants chosen by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services to test what AI-driven medical care could look like at federal scale. The program goes live July 5. “The government is creating swim…
On a cold, windy night in November 2025, a quadcopter drone with special anti-icing propellers took off from a farm field at the foot of the Bannock mountain range north of Salt Lake City, rising 4000 metres into thick clouds. A fan kicked into action, blowing yellow dust out of a cannister attached to the back of the drone. Cloud-seeding company Rainmaker was trying to fight dust with dust, spreading silver iodide powder to encourage precipitation and end the deadly dust storms plaguing Utah’s capital. The Great Salt Lake, which is fed by snowmelt from the Bannock mountains and nearby…
I’ve been back to Cannes something like 15 times. I was there with Valérie Donzelli’s film [Marguerite & Julien in 2015] in Competition and with the closing film [2012’s Thérèse] from Claude Miller. I’ve had films in Critics’ Week and Un Certain Regard. I was President of the Jury that awarded the Camera d’Or [to Vietnamese director Pham Thien An for Inside the Yellow Cocoon Shell] in 2023. But the one that stands out is from my very first time. I was 15, and I was in Cannes with a Michael Haneke film [2003’s Time of the Wolf]. I was…

Menswear today feels stuck between a suit and sweatpants. The middle ground I keep coming back to is clothes with a bit of structure.

Natural fibers, neutral colors, texture. That’s the whole formula. The Structured Layers In…
Historical fiction is a site of postmodernism. In whatever historical period a book takes place, we all bring associations and images to that time period. The recent past is obviously easier to conjure and reference with the visual support of film and photography. The 1970s were an especially important time in cultural history in the United States. After the end of the 1960s and the intense cultural upheaval, people were either searching for stability or looking for more freedom. The past of the American Dream was gone, and everyone was looking for something new. The rise of neo-Hollywood, musical genres…
Mystery Jets have returned after a six-year absence with the raucous single ‘Black Sage’ – check it out below. The Twickenham band last released a studio album in 2020 in the form of ‘A Billion Heartbeats’, their seventh LP, but it appears that they are embarking on a new era. ‘Black Sage’ is out now, via Fiction Records, and it has been made in collaboration with producer Leo Abrahams (Brian Eno, Frightened Rabbit). Riding in on a feedback-laden guitar buzz, the track is a pulsating, growling psych rock beast, with Blaine Harrison singing: “The remedy is in the poison / The blessing is in the curse / Cuz beauty lies…
The biggest snack maker in Japan is making some of its packaging black and white as the Iran war disrupts the market for a key material used to produce printing inks. Calbee, which controls half of Japan’s snacks market but also does business in the U.S., said in a press release Tuesday that several of its potato chip products, as well as its Kappa Ebisen shrimp-flavored snacks and its Frugra fruit and granola mix, will switch to monochromatic packaging because of “supply instability affecting certain raw materials amid ongoing tensions in the Middle East.” The company said while the products…
A reasonable person would expect FBI Director Kash Patel to avoid any and all questions about his reported drinking issues during a Senate hearing, but Patel is fighting to keep his job, so he made the big mistake of engaging with Sen. Chris Van Hollen on the topic of drinking, and it didn’t go great for Patel.Van Hollen said that Patel had been making false statements during the hearing: Let me just say this, Mr. Director. In your response to me earlier, where you had a little bit of a blowup, you made a couple provably false statements… Mr. Director, I…
NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! Democratic California gubernatorial candidate Xavier Becerra is taking heat from critics over a contentious exchange he had with a local reporter about whether he was subjecting himself to a “gotcha piece.”Becerra, who is now widely considered a leading Democratic candidate in California’s jungle primary following the exit of disgraced former Rep.

Unitree is a Chinese company known for making adorable, relatively affordable robots that dance and shuffle and such. Last night, it revealed its latest creation, which is something of a departure: a giant, walking, crawling, transforming, wall-smashing “mecha” called the GD01.An introductory video for the GD01—set to a thundering rock guitar soundtrack—shows the company’s founder and CEO, Xingxing Wang, holding hands with the robot before climbing into its prodigious, open-air belly. A disclaimer added to Unitree’s social media post reads: “Please everyone be sure to use the robot in a Friendly and Safe manner.”The video cuts to a view in…
