Katy Perry and Justin Trudeau can’t keep their eyes off one another during red carpet debut

It’s no secret that fans considered Katy Perry  and Justin Trudeau to be a rather unusual pairing, but the pop-star and politician showed up on Monday night to prove they are every bit the happy couple for their first official carpet debut.  The Firework hitmaker, 41, and her ex-Canadian Prime Minister beau, 54, couldn’t keep their eyes, or hands, off of one another as they marked their first official carpet appearance as a couple at the Tribeca Film Festival in New York.  © Getty Images for Tribeca FestivaThe pair couldn’t be more in love While both household names – in polar opposite fields – the two looked completely in sync, as they put on a gorgeously cozy display of affection for the cameras.  Katy opted for a V-line white column maxi-dress, accented with a cluster of 3D flower embellishments at the neck and waist. The grecian-glamour was complimented by the politicians’ similarly monochromatic look, sporting a tailored black suit and open collar.  © Getty Images for Tribeca FestivaJustin waits while Katy took selfies with fans …

He told Savetsky: “It’s a really big deal, and for a film made in Israel, that’s pretty damn cool. I was only raped by two Israeli dogs.” Savetsky replied, “I thought they only raped Palestinians.” Gold responded, “No, I got also a dog.” In a statement shared in response to backlash over the remarks, the organization said: “The Tribeca Festival is aware of the concerns raised regarding a clip circulating on social media and unequivocally condemns the offensive …

Treasury Warns Banks of ‘Red Flags’ Tied to Customers in the US Illegally

Treasury Warns Banks of ‘Red Flags’ Tied to Customers in the US Illegally

WASHINGTON (AP) — Treasury’s financial crimes arm wants banks to help identify payroll schemes tied to people living in the country illegally, as part of the Trump administration’s latest measure to clamp down on immigration. The Financial Crimes Enforcement Network — also known a FinCEN — issued an advisory Friday to banks that tells them to watch out for identity theft, payroll tax fraud, and money laundering schemes tied to hiring unauthorized workers. This comes after President Donald Trump in May signed an executive order that requires banks to take a closer look at the citizenship of their customers. The order directs bank regulators and government departments to look for signs that people without legal status are opening accounts or obtaining loans or credit cards. However, the order is less aggressive than banks had previously expected, as earlier reports suggested the White House was drafting an order that would make collecting customers’ citizenship information mandatory. Still, without encouraging a blanket debanking of broad segments of the population, the order and latest advisory acts to discourage …

Student astronomer discovers rare white dwarf star feeding on a red dwarf companion

Student astronomer discovers rare white dwarf star feeding on a red dwarf companion

ASKAP J1745-5051 did not look like an easy answer to anything. It flashed radio waves every 1.4 hours, then went quiet for stretches. Then it lit up again with a pattern astronomers had trouble classifying. That odd behavior has now helped pin down one of astronomy’s stranger new mysteries. In a study published in Nature Astronomy, an international team reports that ASKAP J1745-5051 is a compact binary system. In this system, a white dwarf is pulling material from a low-mass red dwarf companion. The finding offers some of the strongest evidence yet that at least some long-period radio transients come from white dwarf binaries. Previously, many had suspected they came from slowly spinning neutron stars. The system was first spotted in an untargeted search for circularly polarized radio sources with the Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder, or ASKAP. Additionally, follow-up observations with MeerKAT sharpened its position. Astronomers matched it to a faint optical source in Gaia data. What they found next changed the story. Artist’s impression of the white dwarf binary ASKAP J1745-5051. The smaller, …

Iowa’s red state status in question with competitive midterms : NPR

Republican Texas Sen. Ted Cruz speaks at the Iowa Faith and Freedom Coalition’s Spring Kickoff event May 1, 2026. Stephen Fowler | NPR hide caption toggle caption Stephen Fowler | NPR CLIVE, Iowa — There’s very little Democrats and Republicans seem to agree on these days, but Iowa’s importance to their political futures is one exception. Tuesday’s primary elections will kick off a sprint to November that includes three competitive House races and a Senate race that will help decide control of each chamber of Congress. The open governor’s race is one of a handful in the country that experts say could change hands this fall. Iowa is a state where the institutional strengths and weaknesses of Democrats and Republicans alike are on heightened display in a midterm election year. President Trump faces record-low approval ratings, rising gas prices, an unpopular war in Iran and affordability concerns. His grip on the Republican Party is stronger than ever, with the few remaining Congressional lawmakers that have notably crossed him ousted in recent primaries. The national Democratic …

Astronomers observe six red dwarf stars ‘eating’ Earth-like planets

Astronomers observe six red dwarf stars ‘eating’ Earth-like planets

A young red dwarf can look calm from a distance. But buried in its light may be the chemical remains of a wrecked world. That is the picture emerging from a new analysis of stars in open clusters, where astronomers found some of the clearest evidence yet that certain young stars may swallow nearby rocky planets. The clue is lithium, a fragile element that should vanish early in these small stars, yet in a handful of cases is still sitting in plain view. The stars in question are red dwarfs, the smallest and coolest stars in the universe, and by far the most common. They are dim compared with the Sun, but their interiors run hot enough to destroy lithium soon after they form. That makes any later detection of lithium stand out sharply. “We found that a few of the red dwarf stars we studied contained lithium, a chemical element that should not be there,” lead author Professor Robin Jeffries of Keele University said. “Therefore even a small amount of lithium stands out clearly …
