Star Wars Announces Upcoming The Mandalorian Panel With Season 3 Tease

It’s not a stretch to suggest that The Mandalorian is the most popular, and most important, project in the galaxy far, far away. The hit series took the world by storm when it debuted on Disney+ in 2019, introducing everyone to Din Djarin and the shocking key player Grogu. Since then, the show and its affiliated stories have carried both Star Wars and Disney+, and things have only just begun. The first real look at The Mandalorian any fan received was during Star Wars Celebration 2019 in Chicago, when executive producers Jon Favreau and Dave Filoni ventured out to Hoth to discuss the show....

Why Does Rain Smell

We all know the scent, that earthy fresh aroma that fills the air during those first few minutes of rain. That smell is one of rain’s most fascinating and perplexing traits. But what causes the it? After all, rain is just odorless water, right? Thankfully, the scientists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology conducted hundreds of experiments and found out why they believe rain brings forth that lovely perfume. By using high-speed cameras to observe raindrops as they hit various porous surfaces, they discovered that small air bubbles become trapped under the drops upon impact, rise up to the surface, and then escape into the surrounding air....

Why Marvel Takes Away Control From Mcu Directors According To Joe Russo

Making any movie is anything but easy, but that difficulty seems to ramp up ten-fold when working on something within the MCU. Not only are creatives faced with the immense pressure to deliver something worthy of the storied franchise, but - for the most part - they have to deal with the intervention of Marvel in furthering the greater story. This has resulted in many amazing collaborative experiences amongst directors, writers, and Marvel Studios producers, but it does not always go so swimmingly....

Why We Should Lose The Words Pedestrian And Cyclist

Pedestrians and cyclists are people who bike or walk, not some separate species. Earlier this year I wrote a post titled People who walk and bike in Toronto are fed up. I could have written “Pedestrians and cyclists in Toronto are fed up” but wanted to stress that these are people, these are citizens, these are not abstract constructions. “People who bike” is sometimes awkward compared to just saying cyclists, but it’s important to never lose sight of what they are – people....

8 Things To Know When Adopting A Blind Dog

When I take a walk with that little fluff ball of a foster puppy above, we don’t get very far. It’s not because Galen is blind.

California Is Generating So Much Solar Energy It S Paying Other States To Take It

The Golden State may want to consider changing its nickname to the Solar State. According to a recent expose in the Los Angeles Times, California’s solar boom is growing so fast and with such intensity that utility regulators are frequently paying neighboring states to absorb surplus production. The forces behind this baffling problem are largely due to the falling cost of solar, the state’s major energy players, and the struggle to find the best way to incorporate a clean energy source that has become increasingly decentralized into the power grid....

Can You Get Your Protein From Peas

The benefits of eating plant-based foods are many, including weight loss, increased cardiovascular health and reduced risk for high blood pressure, cholesterol and type 2 diabetes. Despite the evidence, many people are still concerned that a diet of mainly plant-based foods won’t be nutritionally complete, especially when it comes to protein. It’s understandable. The meat = protein message has been handed down for generations, and the proteins in plants aren’t considered sufficient enough to meet dietary needs....

Daredevil Born Again Kingpin Actor Reacts To Returning In Disney Reboot

Phase 4 of the MCU has spent a lot of time introducing new characters into the fold, but some actors have reprised their roles as characters they have played under a different brand. For example, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness featured Patrick Stewart’s return as Charles Xavier, a character he had already played in multiple X-Men films, which aren’t a part of the franchise. Two other actors that are in the same boat as Stewart are Charlie Cox, who portrayed Daredevil in the self-titled Netflix series, and Vincent D’Onofrio, the actor behind Kingpin....
