Addis Abeba — The U.S. State Department’s newly released 2024 Country Report on Human Rights Practices in Ethiopia reads like a haunting déjà vu. For the fifth consecutive year, Washington has cataloged the same grim realities: extrajudicial killings, mass displacement, arbitrary detention, torture, sexual violence as a weapon of war, and the suffocation of civic space. The details shift with each annual publication, but the narrative arc remains the same. Ethiopia’s crisis has not been cyclical–it has been sustained, engineered, and perfected into a system of governance. That raises a question with global implications: how long will the United States,…

City will be aiming to get over that loss at Brighton on Sunday in the final match before the international break. The two-week gap will deny them the chance to build momentum for now but when they return…

It is well known that heat causes exhaustion in the body due to dehydration. But aging?A recent study concluded that extreme heat accelerates the aging of the human body, a worrying fact given the increasing frequency of heat waves due to climate change.The researchers are not talking about the effects of solar radiation on the skin, but biological aging. Unlike chronological age—that answer that you give when asked how old you are—your biological age reflects how well your cells, tissues, and organs are functioning.

With Marshall Curry‘s The New Yorker at 100, a magazine famous for its erudition and curation receives a polished, amusing and generally superficial Reader’s Digest summary of a documentary. Very little is wrong with the 96-minute version of The New Yorker‘s history that Curry (Street Fight) is recounting (premiering at Telluride ahead of an eventual Netflix launch) — other than the completely unavoidable awareness of all the pieces of the story that aren’t being told with desirable depth, or told at all. The New Yorker at 100 The Bottom Line Should have been a six-hour docuseries. Venue: Telluride Film FestivalDistributor:…
