The postal code where you were born and raised does more than
facilitate mail delivery; it can also tells us about your odds of
becoming a leader. Understanding this can help us understand the early
roots of leadership and reshape how we approach talent acquisition,
leadership development and corporate social responsibility.To explain,
consider two individuals: Jane and Mike. Jane had a more privileged
upbringing, attending an elite private school, socializing at an
upscale tennis club and going on luxury family vacations.

If heavy rains don’t arrive soon, in late June the city’s
Cutzamala water system could reach “Day Zero,” a doomsday
estimation that marks the moment the reservoirs will stop pumping.
That means that in as much as a quarter of the city—even zones that
have typically escaped water shortages—the taps would go bone dry.
The aquifers where about 70 percent of the city’s water comes from
will keep flowing, but they too are in danger.Rolling water cuts have
roiled the Colombian capital of Bogotá since April, after the
Chingaza reservoir system that provides more than two-thirds of the
city’s drinking water dropped to a staggering 17 percent capacity.
Running water in neighborhoods across the city of eight million is
shut off three times a month and households are subject to hundreds of
dollars in fines if they go over monthly allotments.

Service,” a copy of which was obtained by STAT, is to get a sense of
his finesse while advising seven presidents. He strove, he writes, to
speak with complete candor and stay out of politics, while remaining
strategic in pushing for policies he considered vital to public
health.He maneuvered for more HIV funding in the Reagan
administration; pushed George H.W. Bush to expand access to
experimental AIDS medicines; worked with Bill Clinton to set up the
National Institutes of Health’s Vaccine Research Center; and teamed
up with George W. Bush, on whom he lavishes particularly effusive
praise, to set up the global HIV medicine initiative PEPFAR and
several biodefense efforts.

Face Your Fear of Becoming Obsolete

Professionals across the career spectrum have moments where they fear
they’re already obsolete, or becoming so. Different than the
occasional bout of self-doubt, fearing obsolescence means we
fundamentally question our professional significance. When we
over-indulge the fear, it creates cognitive distortions of ourselves,
others, and our environment that can bring us to the worst versions of
ourselves. Whether you’re early in your career and facing a lifetime
of technological and economic disruption, or later in your career and
questioning your future relevance to the world, feelings of
obsolescence don’t have to mire you in fear or futility. The
question isn’t how to avoid these feelings, but rather how to spot
evidence you’re having them and address them in healthy, honest
ways.

To prepare for an upcoming program with a global chemicals company, I
conducted a series of interviews with the top managers and the people
who reported to them. I heard a familiar refrain: The people at the
top felt like the people in the layers below just didn’t take the
needed initiative. As a result, the managers felt an obligation and
responsibility to tell the direct reports what to do and how to do it.
As one manager put it, “They are just not ready to take on this
level of responsibility, and they don’t have the overall oversight
and understanding that we do.”When I spoke to the direct reports,
they complained that the top managers didn’t trust them enough and
acted paternalistic. As a result, the direct reports feared that if
they took the initiative and something didn’t work as planned,
they’d be punished. One country-level director said, “When
something doesn’t work, we’ve learned to push it under the rug.
Otherwise, it gets too complicated and messy.”Unsurprisingly, these
behaviors and mindsets also showed up in the company’s results:
Although its cash cow had continued to produce profits, there had been
no innovations in some time. And the company was struggling to pivot
in the direction of a new strategy.

For most of its two decades of existence, the Monster Hunter series
offered a simple if alluring premise: fight the monsters, defeat the
monsters, and turn the monsters into powerful potion. It’s a
gameplay cycle that’s served the franchise well, but in 2016, Capcom
decided to try something new with the Monster Hunter games. And that
new thing was Pokémon.Originally released for Nintendo 3DS, Monster
Hunter Stories was a major change for the franchise (albeit one that
didn’t necessarily stick in the long run). Inspired by Pokémon, the
game strived for a more symbiotic relationship between humans and
monsters in which the protagonist with the job title of “Rider” is
tasked with collecting monster egg fragments, hatching new besties, an
then battling them against wild monsters or online opponents.

“A Son for a Son.”From the moment HBO released its final trailer
for House of the Dragon Season 2, fan speculation was already swirling
that fans would see the infamous “Blood and Cheese” scene in the
series. But what wasn’t predicted was just how quickly it would be
shown. By the end of Episode 1, Daemon recruits a ratcatcher and an
assassin, named Blood and Cheese, respectively, to kill Aemond
Targaryen as revenge for the death of Rhaenyra’s son Lucerys
Velaryon. But the assassins can’t track Aemond down, so they resort
to a Plan B — killing Jaeharys, Aegon’s son, instead.

The Neanderthals (Homo neanderthalensis) fascinate researchers and the
general public alike. They remain central to debates about the nature
of the genus Homo (the broad biological classification that humans and
their relatives fall into). Neanderthals are also vital for
understanding the uniqueness or otherwise of our species, Homo
sapiens.We shared an ancestor with the Neanderthals around 600,000
years ago. They evolved in Europe while we did so in Africa before
dispersing multiple times into Eurasia. The Neanderthals became
extinct around 40,000 years ago. We have populated the world and
continue to flourish. Whether that different outcome is a consequence
of differences in language and thought has been long debated.

House of the Dragon’s Season 2 premiere is largely a meditative,
table-setting episode. It follows characters like Rhaenyra Targaryen
(Emma D'Arcy) and Alicent Hightower (Olivia Cooke) as they feel the
gravity of Lucerys Velaryon's (Elliot Grihault) death at the end of
House of the Dragon Season 1, and emotionally prepare themselves for
the horrors to come. But the terrible grief that hovers over most of
the episode, fittingly titled "A Son for a Son," then spills over into
House of the Dragon's darkest sequence to date.The premiere's final
minutes follow Daemon Targaryen (Matt Smith) as he sneaks into King's
Landing and hires Blood (Sam C. Wilson), a still-loyal member of the
City Watch he formed, and Cheese (Mark Stobbart), one of the Red
Keep's ratcatchers, to exact vengeance for Lucerys' death. While
Daemon's intended target for the hit is Aemond Targaryen (Ewan
Mitchell) himself, he tells Blood and Cheese that, if they can't find
the Targaryen prince, to make sure they kill "a son for a son."

Jack Nicholson played a werewolf in a movie directed by Mike Nichols.
The result is fascinating.Spare a thought for the poor werewolf.
It’s never had the pop culture footprint of its paranormal
contemporaries and hasn’t inspired the devotion of the likes of
vampires, witches, and zombies. Our ravenous lupine brethren just
never took off in Hollywood. There are exceptions, of course, but
cinema’s favorite fanged ones tend to be undead for a reason. But 30
years ago, Mike Nichols and Jack Nicholson collaborated for an
unexpectedly strange addition to the werewolf canon that brought the
monsters thoroughly into the ‘90s.

The problem with making a masterpiece is it makes you “the one.”
As in, “You’re the one who made [insert masterpiece here].” Glen
Schofield has heard that a lot. Credited as the creator of 2008’s
sci-fi horror survival classic Dead Space, Schofield and the team at
Visceral Games were responsible for introducing a huge audience to a
new subgenre of gaming. Sci-fi survival horror is no longer a novel
concept, but that didn’t stop Schofield from creating the spiritual
successor to his most famous title.The Callisto Protocol launched in
December 2022 to... average reviews. Hovering around 7/10 on
Metacritic, critics and fans alike were entertained if not impressed.
It's obvious the deck was stacked against it given the pedigree of the
team involved, and anything that wasn’t as good or better than Dead
Space was going to have trouble. The Callisto Protocol may not be as
great as one of the best games ever made, but it's still tons of fun
for anyone who loves the genre or simply appreciates a good jump scare
and gory, dismemberment-driven combat.

What Michelangelo's late-in-life works reveal about his genius - and

Michelangelo’s two most famous works, David (1501-1504) and the
ceiling of the Sistine Chapel (1508-1512), were completed when the
exalted Italian Renaissance master was in his 20s and 30s. However, as
this video from the British Museum explores, he lived to the ripe old
age of 88, and continued to create until his very last days. Made to
accompany the British Museum exhibition ‘Michelangelo: The Last
Decades’, which covers works from 1534-1564, this short video
explores three of his drawings across his final 30 years. Bringing the
context of Michelangelo’s life and times to the works, the
exhibition curator Sarah Vowles details how he was ceaselessly
inspired by a desire to please friends and himself, and to make sense
of his world through creativity. In doing so, Vowles helps to humanise
this near-mythical figure, and perhaps even provide viewers some
inspiration for navigating the challenges of old age.

Neanderthals, the closest cousins of modern humans, lived in parts of
Europe and Asia until their extinction some 30,000 years ago. Genetic
studies are revealing ever more about the links between modern humans
and these long-gone relatives – most recently that a rush of
interbreeding between our species occurred in a relatively short burst
of time around 47,000 years ago. But one mystery still remains.

As the world struggles to decarbonise, it’s becoming increasingly
clear we’ll need to both rapidly reduce emissions and actively
remove carbon dioxide (CO₂) from the atmosphere. The latest
Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change report considered 230
pathways to keep global warming below 1.5°C. All required CO₂
removal. Ocean-based approaches are gaining popularity because they
could potentially store carbon for a tenth of the cost of “direct
air capture”, where CO₂ is sucked from the air with
energy-intensive machinery.

sustain a dissident energy. They examine how meaning, purpose and
change can be wrought within – and in opposition to – our
digitally networked, late-capitalist world. The nine essays interlink
around identity, technology and counterculture. They investigate
topics such as internet culture (“Speed Tests”), precarious work
(“Shit Jobs”), weirdness (“Who’s Your Normie?”), punk and
DIY cultures (“The Lifestyle Church”) and the work of writing
(“This Unskilled Life”).

He is most often identified with late 19th-century Paris, but was in
fact Moravian (Czech). His vision for the purpose of art was for the
betterment of humanity and creation of utopia, but his most famous
artworks are advertisements. His style typifies Art Nouveau, a
movement at its peak between the 1890s and 1910s, but his career
spanned several decades from the late 1800s until his death in 1939.
Born in 1860 in what is now the Czech Republic, Mucha trained in
Paris. He worked as an illustrator in Paris and Prague, and exhibited
work in the Paris Salon before rising to fame with his poster works
and branching out into other media. After several visits to the United
States, he returned to his homeland in 1910 and remained there until
his death in 1939.

Adolescence and young adulthood is a time of identity formation, when
young people figure out who they are and who they want to be. One of
the ways they do this is by considering the world around them, paying
attention to social issues and starting to understand their society
and their place in it. Laws and policies signal to young people what
society thinks of their value, their role in society and their
opportunities for the future. But the experience of growing up in the
post-Roe v. Wade era looks very different from that before the 50-year
precedent was overturned in 2022.

The human body today has many replaceable parts, ranging from
artificial hearts to myoelectric feet. What makes this possible is not
just complicated technology and delicate surgical procedures. It’s
also an idea — that humans can and should alter patients’ bodies
in supremely difficult and invasive ways.Scholars often depict the
American Civil War as an early watershed for amputation techniques and
artificial limb design. Amputations were the most common operation of
the war, and an entire prosthetics industry developed in response.
Anyone who has seen a Civil War film or TV show has likely watched at
least one scene of a surgeon grimly approaching a wounded soldier with
saw in hand. Surgeons performed 60,000 amputations during the war,
spending as little as three minutes per limb.

If heavy rains don’t arrive soon, in late June the city’s
Cutzamala water system could reach “Day Zero,” a doomsday
estimation that marks the moment the reservoirs will stop pumping.
That means that in as much as a quarter of the city—even zones that
have typically escaped water shortages—the taps would go bone dry.
The aquifers where about 70 percent of the city’s water comes from
will keep flowing, but they too are in danger.Rolling water cuts have
roiled the Colombian capital of Bogotá since April, after the
Chingaza reservoir system that provides more than two-thirds of the
city’s drinking water dropped to a staggering 17 percent capacity.
Running water in neighborhoods across the city of eight million is
shut off three times a month and households are subject to hundreds of
dollars in fines if they go over monthly allotments.

speak with complete candor and stay out of politics, while remaining
strategic in pushing for policies he considered vital to public
health.He maneuvered for more HIV funding in the Reagan
administration; pushed George H.W. Bush to expand access to
experimental AIDS medicines; worked with Bill Clinton to set up the

Professionals across the career spectrum have moments where they fear
they’re already obsolete, or becoming so. Different than the
occasional bout of self-doubt, fearing obsolescence means we
fundamentally question our professional significance. When we
over-indulge the fear, it creates cognitive distortions of ourselves,
others, and our environment that can bring us to the worst versions of
ourselves. Whether you’re early in your career and facing a lifetime
of technological and economic disruption, or later in your career and
questioning your future relevance to the world, feelings of
obsolescence don’t have to mire you in fear or futility. The
question isn’t how to avoid these feelings, but rather how to spot
evidence you’re having them and address them in healthy, honest
ways.

To prepare for an upcoming program with a global chemicals company, I
conducted a series of interviews with the top managers and the people
who reported to them. I heard a familiar refrain: The people at the
top felt like the people in the layers below just didn’t take the
needed initiative. As a result, the managers felt an obligation and
responsibility to tell the direct reports what to do and how to do it.
As one manager put it, “They are just not ready to take on this
level of responsibility, and they don’t have the overall oversight
and understanding that we do.”When I spoke to the direct reports,
they complained that the top managers didn’t trust them enough and
acted paternalistic. As a result, the direct reports feared that if
they took the initiative and something didn’t work as planned,
they’d be punished. One country-level director said, “When
something doesn’t work, we’ve learned to push it under the rug.
Otherwise, it gets too complicated and messy.”Unsurprisingly, these
behaviors and mindsets also showed up in the company’s results:
Although its cash cow had continued to produce profits, there had been
no innovations in some time. And the company was struggling to pivot
in the direction of a new strategy.

offered a simple if alluring premise: fight the monsters, defeat the
monsters, and turn the monsters into powerful potion. It’s a
gameplay cycle that’s served the franchise well, but in 2016, Capcom
decided to try something new with the Monster Hunter games. And that
new thing was Pokémon.Originally released for Nintendo 3DS, Monster
Hunter Stories was a major change for the franchise (albeit one that
didn’t necessarily stick in the long run). Inspired by Pokémon, the
game strived for a more symbiotic relationship between humans and
monsters in which the protagonist with the job title of “Rider” is
tasked with collecting monster egg fragments, hatching new besties, an
then battling them against wild monsters or online opponents.

assassin, named Blood and Cheese, respectively, to kill Aemond
Targaryen as revenge for the death of Rhaenyra’s son Lucerys
Velaryon. But the assassins can’t track Aemond down, so they resort
to a Plan B — killing Jaeharys, Aegon’s son, instead.

The Neanderthals (Homo neanderthalensis) fascinate researchers and the
general public alike. They remain central to debates about the nature
of the genus Homo (the broad biological classification that humans and
their relatives fall into). Neanderthals are also vital for
understanding the uniqueness or otherwise of our species, Homo
sapiens.We shared an ancestor with the Neanderthals around 600,000
years ago. They evolved in Europe while we did so in Africa before
dispersing multiple times into Eurasia. The Neanderthals became
extinct around 40,000 years ago. We have populated the world and
continue to flourish. Whether that different outcome is a consequence
of differences in language and thought has been long debated.

(Emma D'Arcy) and Alicent Hightower (Olivia Cooke) as they feel the
gravity of Lucerys Velaryon's (Elliot Grihault) death at the end of
House of the Dragon Season 1, and emotionally prepare themselves for
the horrors to come. But the terrible grief that hovers over most of
the episode, fittingly titled "A Son for a Son," then spills over into
House of the Dragon's darkest sequence to date.The premiere's final
minutes follow Daemon Targaryen (Matt Smith) as he sneaks into King's
Landing and hires Blood (Sam C. Wilson), a still-loyal member of the
City Watch he formed, and Cheese (Mark Stobbart), one of the Red
Keep's ratcatchers, to exact vengeance for Lucerys' death. While
Daemon's intended target for the hit is Aemond Targaryen (Ewan
Mitchell) himself, he tells Blood and Cheese that, if they can't find
the Targaryen prince, to make sure they kill "a son for a son."

The problem with making a masterpiece is it makes you “the one.”
As in, “You’re the one who made [insert masterpiece here].” Glen
Schofield has heard that a lot. Credited as the creator of 2008’s
sci-fi horror survival classic Dead Space, Schofield and the team at
Visceral Games were responsible for introducing a huge audience to a
new subgenre of gaming. Sci-fi survival horror is no longer a novel
concept, but that didn’t stop Schofield from creating the spiritual
successor to his most famous title.The Callisto Protocol launched in
December 2022 to... average reviews. Hovering around 7/10 on
Metacritic, critics and fans alike were entertained if not impressed.
It's obvious the deck was stacked against it given the pedigree of the
team involved, and anything that wasn’t as good or better than Dead
Space was going to have trouble. The Callisto Protocol may not be as
great as one of the best games ever made, but it's still tons of fun
for anyone who loves the genre or simply appreciates a good jump scare
and gory, dismemberment-driven combat.

Michelangelo’s two most famous works, David (1501-1504) and the
ceiling of the Sistine Chapel (1508-1512), were completed when the
exalted Italian Renaissance master was in his 20s and 30s. However, as
this video from the British Museum explores, he lived to the ripe old
age of 88, and continued to create until his very last days. Made to
accompany the British Museum exhibition ‘Michelangelo: The Last
Decades’, which covers works from 1534-1564, this short video
explores three of his drawings across his final 30 years. Bringing the
context of Michelangelo’s life and times to the works, the
exhibition curator Sarah Vowles details how he was ceaselessly
inspired by a desire to please friends and himself, and to make sense
of his world through creativity. In doing so, Vowles helps to humanise
this near-mythical figure, and perhaps even provide viewers some
inspiration for navigating the challenges of old age.

remove carbon dioxide (CO₂) from the atmosphere. The latest
Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change report considered 230
pathways to keep global warming below 1.5°C. All required CO₂
removal. Ocean-based approaches are gaining popularity because they
could potentially store carbon for a tenth of the cost of “direct

By now, all of us have heard and read a lot about artificial
intelligence (AI). You’ve likely used some of the countless AI tools
that are becoming available. For some, AI feels like a magic wand that
predicts the future. But AI is not perfect. A supermarket meal planner
in Aotearoa New Zealand gave customers poisonous recipes, a New York
City chatbot advised people to break the law, and Google’s AI
Overview is telling people to eat rocks.

With no new investment to combat climate change in last month’s
budget, and a long list of cuts to climate and environment-related
areas, the government risks damaging its global reputation. Freshwater
and native forest planting initiatives will be scaled back, along with
reduced biosecurity monitoring.

In her debut essay collection, Peripathetic: Notes on (un)belonging,
Cher Tan turns her maverick attention to the possibility and power of
resistance. Tan’s essays rise out of a defiant, DIY sensibility and
sustain a dissident energy. They examine how meaning, purpose and
change can be wrought within – and in opposition to – our
digitally networked, late-capitalist world. The nine essays interlink
around identity, technology and counterculture. They investigate
topics such as internet culture (“Speed Tests”), precarious work
(“Shit Jobs”), weirdness (“Who’s Your Normie?”), punk and
DIY cultures (“The Lifestyle Church”) and the work of writing
(“This Unskilled Life”).

Alphonse Mucha and Art Nouveau: 100 years after its creation, his work

He is most often identified with late 19th-century Paris, but was in
fact Moravian (Czech). His vision for the purpose of art was for the
betterment of humanity and creation of utopia, but his most famous
artworks are advertisements. His style typifies Art Nouveau, a
movement at its peak between the 1890s and 1910s, but his career
spanned several decades from the late 1800s until his death in 1939.
Born in 1860 in what is now the Czech Republic, Mucha trained in
Paris. He worked as an illustrator in Paris and Prague, and exhibited
work in the Paris Salon before rising to fame with his poster works
and branching out into other media. After several visits to the United
States, he returned to his homeland in 1910 and remained there until
his death in 1939.

Adolescence and young adulthood is a time of identity formation, when
young people figure out who they are and who they want to be. One of
the ways they do this is by considering the world around them, paying
attention to social issues and starting to understand their society
and their place in it. Laws and policies signal to young people what
society thinks of their value, their role in society and their
opportunities for the future. But the experience of growing up in the
post-Roe v. Wade era looks very different from that before the 50-year
precedent was overturned in 2022.

announced June 4 that Hubble would shift into one-gyroscope mode. This
essentially means that the telescope will have to rely on just one of
the several gyroscopes – devices that measure an object’s
orientation in space – it normally uses to track and follow objects
in space.

Modern surgery began with saws and iron hands - how amputation

The human body today has many replaceable parts, ranging from
artificial hearts to myoelectric feet. What makes this possible is not
just complicated technology and delicate surgical procedures. It’s
also an idea — that humans can and should alter patients’ bodies
in supremely difficult and invasive ways.Scholars often depict the
American Civil War as an early watershed for amputation techniques and
artificial limb design. Amputations were the most common operation of
the war, and an entire prosthetics industry developed in response.
Anyone who has seen a Civil War film or TV show has likely watched at
least one scene of a surgeon grimly approaching a wounded soldier with
saw in hand. Surgeons performed 60,000 amputations during the war,
spending as little as three minutes per limb.

of 18th-century print is littered with striking instances in which
women, like Featherington, used cheap print – such as magazines and

male-dominated status quo. They also used them to signal solidarity to
the women living quietly and politely within society.
