Rolls-Royce has been spotted testing a prototype for an updated Ghost sedan. The updates will likely constitute a mid-cycle refresh for the current Ghost, which arrived on the market for the 2021 model year. Expect the updated version, which Rolls-Royce typically refers to as Series II cars, to arrive as a 2026 model. That means a debut sometime in 2025 is likely. The changes to the exterior are dramatic, at least by Rolls-Royce standards. There’s a new front end with differently shaped headlights than the current model. The front fascia is also new, though the grille appears to feature the…
The 2024 model year marks the end for the sixth-generation Chevrolet Camaro. Chevy isn’t retiring the iconic nameplate but hasn’t confirmed timing for a successor, or said whether it will resemble the current Camaro. So, Specialty Vehicle Engineering (SVE) is building one last round of Yenko Camaros while it can. The 2024 SVE Chevy Camaro Yenko/SE is the last modern Yenko Camaro, for now at least. New Jersey-based SVE licenses the Yenko trademark, made famous by the Canonsburg, Pennsylvania, dealership Yenko Chevrolet with its special-order muscle cars in the 1960s. For 2024, SVE will offer Stage I, Stage II, and…
On this World Autism Awareness Day, I’d like to share an uplifting story about my son, Kevin, and his friend, Cameron. Kevin and Cameron met roughly 10 years ago when they were together in a Grade 8 class for students with autism. Cameron was among the high-functioning students, and Kevin, well, he was not. Kevin has the ability to speak in words and understand most of what is said to him. But he is not adept at conversation and doesn’t have the ability to navigate the world by himself. When they were in school together, Cameron would pay attention…

CNN — Devin Booker scored 52 points as the Phoenix Suns recorded a vital 124-111 victory over the New Orleans Pelicans on Monday. The win moves Phoenix to within one game of the Pelicans in sixth place in the Western Conference, the final automatic playoff spot, as both teams bid to avoid the Play-In Tournament.

A team of scientists has identified an additional force that likely contributed to a mass extinction event 250 million years ago. Its analysis of minerals in southern China indicate that volcano eruptions produced a “volcanic winter” that drastically lowered earth’s temperatures–a change that added to the environmental effects resulting from other phenomena at the time. The research, which appears in the journal Science Advances, examined the end-Permian mass extinction (EPME), which was the most severe extinction event in the past 500 million years, wiping out 80 to 90 percent of species on land and in the sea. “As we look closer…
Peacock’s new Casey Anthony special dares to ask why we need to rehash every true crime case. There’s one group you won’t find joining in the newfound social media push to redeem alleged child-killer Casey Anthony after a recent new series profiling her: The true crime fan community. That’s because despite Casey Anthony being found not guilty in 2011 of allegedly murdering her 2-year-old daughter, Caylee, conventional wisdom holds that she almost certainly was involved in Caylee’s disappearance and death. While the case against her unfolded as an avaricious media circus that portrayed Casey as a callous Orlando party girl,…

Booker became the first NBA player since Wilt Chamberlain to score at least 50 points in three consecutive games against the same…
