While we have a pretty good idea of where things start and end in Zack Snyders Justice League, the four hours in between remain more mysterious than not. Snyder has said tha yeezy t聽more than half the movie is never before seen footage, and that the film is broken down into six chapters. Now, all six of those chapter titles have been revealed. These come from the official @SnyderCut account on Twitter so were guessing they arent huge spoilers. Nevertheless, if you dont want to know, probably best to jump off the train here. OK, the chapter titles are as follows: Dont Count on It, Batman The Age of Heroes Beloved Mother, Beloved Son Change Machine All the Kings Horses Something Darker The first thing to note here are the quotation marks. Those arent by accident, meaning each is likely a line of dialogue in the film. Beyond that, based on a very rudimentary knowledge of the plot, you can begin to loosely speculate about what each means. For example, youd imagine The Age of Heroes is probably centered on intr yeezy oducing the characters fans hadnt met until this film, such as Cyborg, the Flash, and Aquaman. Change Machine seems like it has something to do with the Mother Boxes, since theyre machines that cause change, so maybe thats Cyborgs origin. On the other hand, maybe its even something simpler, like referencing a machine to make change at the football game we know is in the movie. Probably not, but were guessing adidas samba adidas 聽wildly over here. The relationship between Clark Kent and Adrj The Lizzie Borden Chronicles Ends With A Bang, And A Stark
The Hunger Games movie franchise is about to make another billion quatloos this weekend, so its probably not surprising that the people making the Logans Run remake want it to be another Hunger Games. But patterning Logan after adidas originals Hunger, in any way, is an immensely silly idea. Put simply, Logans Run is a book and movie about the evils of youth culture. Its all about what happens when we put the youth ahead of everybody else, and that informs its basic concept: salomon xt 6 A false utopia where youre put to death when you reach the age of 21 or 3 mizuno laufschuhe 0, in the 1976 movie. Hunger Games, meanwhile, is about the older generation using young people as disposable pawns, and what happens when the lives of kids are seen as essentially worthless by the people in charge. The messages of the two franchises are, in fact, opposite. So its odd when writer/producer Simon Kinberg, discussing Logans Run, tells Collider: Its something that potentially is their Hunger Games kind of franchise that is about a younger audience for a younger audience with a big idea. And Logans Run, as you know, is the granddaddy of Maze Runner andHunger Games and so many of these books and movies now. So yeah, theyre seeing it as a potentially really big franchise. Because in fact, Logans Run is about young people, but its conceptually not that sympathetic to young people. Its not about older people oppressing or using the young, which is the lifeblood of popular YA series like Hunger Games or Maze Runner. The fear at the hea

Chl枚e Swarbrick, a 25-year-old member of New Zealands parliament, was interrupted by another politician while giving a speech about climate change on Tuesday. And rather than stop everything to address the heckles, she did what anyone of her generation has learned to do when confronted with climate deniers. She said OK Boomer and moved on. How many world leaders, for how many decades have seen and known what is coming, but have decided that it is more politically expedient to keep it behind closed doors. My generation and th nike dunk e generations after me do not have that luxury, Swarbrick said while discussing a new bill to reach zero carbon emissions in New Zealand by 2050.

OK Boomer, said Swarbrick before moving on with her speech about the ways in which short term thinking dominates politics and threatens the planet. Swarbrick told New Zealands Stuff news outlet that shes sick of Baby Boomers saying her generation ruined everything and that Millennials need to pull our socks up, or something. She went on to say that when it comes to climate change facts dont matter with Boomers and that a quick rejoinder does the trick. Its better to acknowledge that perhaps energy is better spent elsewhere, Swarbrick told Stuff. That rallying cry is the relatively innocuous okay boomer.

I had a brief glimmer of hope and cognitive dissonance when a few images from Fox News crossed my screen last night. Polling by the conservative cable network showed 72% of voters were concerned about climate change and 70% wanted increased federal clean energy spending. It aligns with other polling similarly showing the majority of Americans are worried and want the government to act. If a clear majority of Americans want to address climate change, why did so many vote in politicians who will make that virtually impossible There are clearl air force 1 y some caveats to why the hoped-for climate election didnt deliver. Chief among them is the minoritarian politics of the U.S. thanks to the warping effect of the Electoral College, gerrymandering, and a Senate where Republicans control the majority despite representing less than 50% of adidas yeezy the population. The U.S. is also a hellscape of voter suppression laser-focused on depressing Black and brown turnout, two groups that support climate action more than the general population. This year has also seen a pandemic raging out of control and the economy circling the toilet due to widespread Republican malfeasance. The conditions around this election are uniquely horrifying. While the climate is certainly tied to the coronavirus and how we recover, voters mostly appeared to ignore that, instead focusing their votes on either containing the pandemic or the econ uggs barn omy鈥攂oth of which are also intimately connected to climate change.

The OSIRIS-REx spacecraft set out on September 8, 2016 to study the asteroid Bennu. But last fall, one of its experiments detected something surprising: a flare from a black hole. OSIRIS-REx launched with a suite of instruments, including the Regolith X-Ray Imaging Spectrometer, or REXIS. The instrument, run by MIT and Harvard students and staff, is meant to measure x-rays that Bennu spits out after the Sun irradiates it. But the imager can spot other x-ray phenomenon, too, like an outburst of x-rays from MAXI J0637-043, a black hole 30,000 lig yeezy ht-years away. The finding is detailed in a press release from NASA Goddard Space Flight Center. The OSIRIS-REx mission planners chose Bennu as their target because its made up of carbonaceous material that has been barely altered since the solar systems earliest days and the fact that its not too far away from Earth . In addition to bringing a sample of the asteroid to Earth, the spacecraft has a host of science equipment to study the rock, including cameras, scanning instruments, and composition-measu adidas samba uomo ring spectrometers such as REXIS. The REXIS experiments primary goal is to train students how to build, operate, and manage spaceflight hardware. Two telescopes in Earths orbit also picked up the flare, but the observation by REXIS is the first time a black hole outburst has been measured from deep airmaxplus space. Though the scientists have pointed the football-sized instrument at Bennu, other sources of x-rays shine through, especially beca Ufak The Science of How Champagne Gets Its Bubbles

Picture-in-picture is a trick that most of your devices are able to do, and it means you can keep on watching YouTube, Twitch, Netflix, FaceTime or any other video stream while you do something else. Heres how you can set it up on your phones, ta adidas yeezy blets, computers and media streaming gadgets. Android and iOS Picture-in-picture on Android. Screenshot: Android On recent versions of Android, picture-in-picture works more or less automatically, as long as the video app youre using has been built to support it. For example, if you launch Netflix and start watching something, then go back to the home screen, the video plays in a smaller window in the corner of the screen. If this doesnt work for whatever apps youre using, you might need to dig into the app settings or investigate further. With the YouTube app, the picture-in-picture mode is only enabled if youre a Premium subscriber, so the mini player wont appear if youre not paying.

Unlike a certain companion animal that will go unnamed, dogs lose their minds when reunited with their owners. But its not immediately obvious why our canine companions should grant us such an over-the-top greeting鈥攅specially considering the power imbalance that exists between the two species. We spoke to the experts to find out why. Call of the Wild In order to gain an appreciation for dog behavior, its important to understand that dogs are descended from wolves or at least a common wolf-like ancestor . Clearly, the two species, separated by about 10,000 to 15,000 years, share a lot in common. Like dogs, wolves greet each other with vigorous face li nike af cking Credit: Sander van der Wel CC A-SA 2.0 But theres only so much we can extrapolate from wolves; dogs are categorically different by virtue of the fact that their ancestors actively sought out the company of humans. Making matters even more complicated is the realization that Paleolithic e nike sb dunk ra wolves are not the same as the ones around today. Consequently, any inferences we make about dog behavior and how it relates to wolves is pure speculation. Neuroscientist Gregory Berns, autho dunks r of How Dogs Love Us, says theres a fundamental difference between modern wolves and those that lived long ago. The most social of those ancestral dogs who were hanging around humans had to have been the most social of those wolves, he told io9. They joined humans and eventually evolved to become dogs.

Weve already been waiting years for new Transformers and Star Trek movies, and now were going to have to wait a bit more. Paramount has reportedly delayed the upcoming Transformers film, Transformers: Rise of the Beasts, a whole year, from June 24, 2022 to June 9, 2023. That was the day a new Star Trek movie was set to open鈥攂ut thats now moved from June 9, 2023 to December 22, 2023. Why the moves Well, probably a number of reasons.

And then, once Paramount moved Transformers to the weekend Star Trek was dated, it had to move Star Trek.
