A seeker and maker of symmetrical images that intuitively please the eye, Wes Anderson may well be the most aesthetically influential filmmaker of the last 20 years. The visual accomplishment of his stop-motion feature Isle of Dogs is practically brain-breaking, a leveling up from 2009’s already gorgeous Fantastic Mr. Fox that will be pored over by animation heads for generations.
What is lecanemab, the newly approved Alzheimer’s drug? Can it really slow down dementia?

Last week, Australia’s Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) approved a new drug for early Alzheimer’s diseases: lecanemab, sold under the brand name Leqembi. It follows the approval of a similar drug, donanemab, earlier this year.

How does it work?
Those who received donanemab also demonstrated large reductions in the levels of amyloid in the brain (as measured by PET scans). The majority, by the end of the trial, were considered to be below the threshold that would normally indicate the presence of Alzheimer’s disease. These results certainly seem to vindicate the amyloid hypothesis, which had been called into question by the results of multiple failed previous studies. They represent a major advance in our understanding of the disease.

Parekh gets the call but when will he suit up for Flames?
Parekh gets the call but when will he suit up for Flames? The experience will be invaluable whether Calgary Flames prospect-turned-pro gets game action or not. With five games remaining on the regular-season schedule, Zayne Parekh got called up to his NHL club on Tuesday — joining the Flames on the road in Anaheim. It’s unlikely the 19-year-old (as of mid-February) defenseman gets into his first NHL contest right away.

What Flames Lines Could Look Like When Key Center Returns
When Connor Zary returns to the Calgary Flames lineup, things are going to look a lot different than when he left. The sophomore Flames center was knocked out of action back in early January, the victim of a knee-on-knee collision that looked initially like it could have been season-ending.
