House of Nancy: Camp, Comedy & Camaraderie | Times Square Chronicles
Darren Saad is a self-proclaimed Broadway babe. He loves show tunes, comedy and is a fan of all things Times Square. But Darren had a burning desire, to bring high-quality cabaret and comedy to his own neighborhood off off OFF Broadway in Bushwick. An entertainer himself, Darren opened the House of Nancy this June in Brooklyn, and his blend of exceptionally weird entertainment has brought a welcome brightness to the community.
The Art of Slowing Down with PureWow A Day of Wellness, Beauty and Self-Care in Chelsea. | Times Square Chronicles
It was a picture-perfect day at Jack Studios when more than 100 yogis, wellness experts and kindred spirits gathered on the 12th floor for a single, simple invitation: listen, relax, and enjoy. That was exactly the feeling event creator, Susan Martin and her team created for PureWow , a lifestyle magazine by Gallery Media Group. They knocked it out of the park, building a program around the things women actually want and need at this stage of life, and making space to slow down and take it all in.
How Onyx Coffee Lab became a James Beard Award semifinalist
Onyx Coffee Lab was named a James Beard Award semifinalist in early 2026, highlighting how specialty coffee is increasingly recognised alongside other food and beverage fields. It was founded in 2012 with a mission to increase quality in the specialty coffee industry, introducing new levels of transparency and producer relationships. Its competition success has strengthened Onyx’s reputation as one of the most respected roasteries in North America.
Preferences for Managing Subspecies: An Australian Case Study of Wedge‐Tailed Eagles
1 Introduction Birds of prey, such as eagles, have an important ecological function as predators in forest and grassland ecosystems. Predators are one of a number of potential indicators of a given ecosystem's overall health, as they sit at the top of the food chain (Hilty and Merenlender 2000; Caro 2010). Birds of prey are often targeted in conservation as ‘umbrella species’, as protecting their habitat will also benefit many other species (Branton and Richardson 2011).
Cary Owsley's murder covered up as a suicide by law enforcement.
Public street protests haven't helped; a few local television reports haven't helped: even the investigative findings of famed gunshot wound and trajectory expert Dr. Bill Smock (who was also an expert witness in the #GeorgeFloyd case) who finds Owsley was murdered, isn't moving the needle. In fact, Cheryl is still denied help - even from the FBI and no one from the Department of Justice will, at the very least, re-open the case.
Compressing the Chronology of a Temporal Network with Graph Commutators
Abstract Studies of dynamics on temporal networks often represent the network as a series of “snapshots,” static networks active for short durations of time. We argue that successive snapshots can be aggregated if doing so has little effect on the overlying dynamics. We propose a method to compress network chronologies by progressively combining pairs of snapshots whose matrix commutators have the smallest dynamical effect.

3 Experts on How to Brew the Perfect Cup of Coffee at Home
This story is an exclusive sneak peek of Wondercade, the newsletter from Neil Patrick Harris produced in partnership with InsideHook Studios. You can sign up — for free — to receive it right here. Coffee is perhaps the most personal of drinks. Ask a dozen people how they take it, and you’ll get a dozen different answers. (Mine is a flat white, sweet, ideally with oat milk.) The same holds for how people make their coffee. There are a host of factors that play into our morning brews.
Predicting the diversity of early epidemic spread on networks
Abstract The interplay of biological, social, structural, and random factors makes disease forecasting extraordinarily complex. The course of an epidemic exhibits average growth dynamics determined by features of the pathogen and the population, yet also features significant variability reflecting the stochastic nature of disease spread.
Delta Leadership Institute is cultivating success
Every year, a new class of leaders from the Mississippi River Delta and Alabama Black Belt come together to hone their leadership skills as fellows of the Delta Leadership Institute (DLI) Executive Academy. DLI, a program of the Delta Regional Authority (DRA), offers training to empower Delta leaders with the tools, experiences, and networks to address local and regional challenges.
Meghan Markle Is All of Us
She’s THAT Woman Who Ain’t Afraid Former Television News Anchor Andrea Morehead Allen “You need to want to be saved,”says Markle at the end of what was one of the most honest and remarkable interviews I’ve ever seen. It was painful, hurtful, blistering and heartbreaking. As I sat on the edge of my seat, I prepared myself for what I instinctively knew she and Prince Harry were going to share with the world for the first time — racism fueled the fear of the monarchy.
Regional collaboration results in regional strength
A strong region needs a strong university partner. Likewise, a strong university needs strong regional communities. Northeast Arkansas communities produce and prepare future Arkansas State University (A-State) students, scholars and leaders. If northeast Arkansas communities and A-State are not working together, they may not succeed. Growing up in northeast Arkansas, I knew A-State as a place for basketball tournaments, collegiate sports and higher education.
5 Reasons Why the Nintendo 2DS XL Is Perfect for Summer - Mom it Forward
School is out for the summer and the excitement level at my house is about to blow off the roof. I love hot summer days as we enjoy hanging by the pool and road tripping with the windows down. With all that being said, transitioning from school to summer is not always easy. For us moms, to ensure we have those precious moments of summertime bliss for ourselves, we need to be armed with tools and resources to help our kids have fun while we stay sane.

The two-day event was part of the Newcastle Late Shows and included an advance screening of her exhibition Light Meditations, which is displaying new work the artist has produced from her rural base at Highgreen, Northumberland. In Light Meditations, Schofield concerns herself with our spiritual connection to the landscape.
Joss Whedon Should Support Women, Not Planned Parenthood
I’ve found that some of the ‘freedoms’ Joss Whedon and Planned Parenthood consider necessary actually are ‘wrapped up’ in women’s oppression. Hollywood director Joss Whedon recently said he made a support video for abortion giant Planned Parenthood because “Women’s health care is so much just about women’s humanity.” The video shows three different women for whom access to Planned Parenthood meant hope, a chance for an education, and even the woman’s own life.

We’re constantly asking ourselves what more we can do to help our insanely creative community bring their amazing work to the world. As such, we’re proud to announce Share the Screen, a new initiative we hope will help close the gender gap that is so pervasive in the entertainment industry.
