David Lynch’s Hollywood Hills compound has hit the market. Its asking price? $15 million. Lynch, who died in January, lived on the 2.5-acre estate for over 35 years, and created “Mulholland Drive” and “Lost Highway,” and many more of his works there. According to listing agent Marc Silver of The Agency Beverly Hills, the Beverly Johnson house was designed in 1963 by Lloyd Wright, son of Frank Lloyd Wright. Recognized by Historic Places LA as an excellent example of mid-century modern/organic residential architecture, the house “embodies the drama of hillside modernism with bold geometry, walls of glass, and a seamless…

Hugh PymHealth editorBBC”It was really bad – we had patients dying on the waiting lists – politicians were getting desperate.”Jesper Fisker, chief executive of the Danish Cancer Society, is looking back 25 years – to the moment Denmark decided to transform its approach to treating cancer.At that point, he says, the country did not have a strong record.”It was a disaster,” he recalls. “We saw Danish patients out of their own pocket paying for tickets to China to get all sorts of treatments – endangering their health.”Some went to private hospitals in Germany that offered new treatments unavailable in Denmark.Back…

“Now he is in one of the best locations and you can’t miss it if you are in Cardiff, if you are going to the stadium. I am glad his family is here and the club helped. It’s an amazing project.”Cardiff director Steve Borley was also present as the mural was unveiled.”Sol meant to everything to us,” Borley said. “You could ask him to do anything.”I always remember every time I saw Sol, it was a two-handed handshake – he could not do it with one – and the biggest smile you have ever seen.”He raised everybody’s spirits.

In the spring of 2024, when Rachael Sawyer, a technical writer from Texas, received a LinkedIn message from a recruiter hiring for a vague title of writing analyst, she assumed it would be similar to her previous gigs of content creation. On her first day of work a week later, however, her expectations went bust. Instead of writing words herself, Sawyer’s job was to rate and moderate the content created by artificial intelligence.The job initially involved a mix of parsing through meeting notes and chats summarized by Google’s Gemini, and, in some cases, reviewing short films made by the AI.On…

The United Arab Emirates (UAE) has, in recent years, emerged as Africa’s leading foreign investor, channelling an estimated USD 130 billion between 2019 and 2023. Much of this activity has been concentrated in transport and logistics, where Emirati companies such as DP World and AD Ports operate port terminals across the continent, while Emirates Airlines and Etihad Airways dominate air traffic. Increasingly, however, Abu Dhabi is extending its reach into rail, from the Horn of Africa to the Gulf of Guinea. In January 2025, the UAE confirmed plans to finance a 250-kilometre railway linking Tog Wajale on the Ethiopian border…

As we return to the 1990s, with Scream, Clueless, Buffy, Practical Magic, Happy Gilmore and My Best Friend’s Wedding having either returned or set for it, there’s also a broader sense of nostalgia that’s seeing the resurrection of certain genres. Already at this year’s Toronto film festival, Aziz Ansari admirably tried, and I would say sadly failed, to recall the spirit of the high-concept star-led comedy with fantastical elements in Good Fortune. There’s a far more convincing attempt from the Irish writer-director David Freyne with Eternity, an ambitious afterlife romance that could more neatly play alongside films of the era…
