Mindset Lesson of the Day by Enrique Iglesias looks at a quieter side of failure: what it can reveal about us after the disappointment fades. His words touch on the moments when rejection, self-doubt or a painful mistake force us to reconsider what we thought we knew about ourselves. What can Enrique Iglesias wisdom teach us about resilience, emotional strength, self-growth, setbacks, acceptance and finding greater strength when life does not go as planned?

Scientists have discovered a massive crater on the Moon that formed after an asteroid or comet fragment struck the lunar surface in 2024. Measuring about 728 feet across, it is the largest known recent lunar impact crater and is three times larger than the previous record-holder, bigger than Rome's Colosseum. The discovery could help scientists understand lunar soil and assess risks to future Moon bases.

Earth's breathable atmosphere is a temporary phenomenon, experts predict. Computer simulations show oxygen loss within one billion years, long before the sun ages. This event will render the planet uninhabitable for oxygen-dependent life forms. Anaerobic organisms, however, will likely continue to survive in oxygen-free environments. This research also impacts the search for alien life on exoplanets.

Chinas 480-meter fish bypass is turning an engineering barrier into a route for wildlife. Built alongside a 134-kilometer canal, the passage helps migratory fish move between habitats that had become separated by human infrastructure. Instead of changing the entire waterway, engineers created a dedicated corridor where fish can navigate around the blockage. That small intervention has a larger ecological purpose. Connected waterways give fish access to breeding, feeding and seasonal habitats.
Judge requires 30 days' notice before Trump can demolish Kennedy Center
By Katharine Jackson and Mike Scarcella WASHINGTON, Sept 17 (Reuters) - A federal judge ordered President Donald Trump's administration on Thursday to provide at least 30 days' notice before taking any steps to demolish the Kennedy Center, the landmark performing arts venue that has become a flashpoint in his efforts to reshape the U.S. capital. U.S. District Judge Christopher Cooper issued the order after lawyers for a Democratic congresswoman who is suing to keep the venue open and Trump's name off its facade submitted new evidence citing theRepublican president's comments on Wednesday referring to demolishing the Kennedy Center. I think that the Trump administration should certainly have recognition. Because frankly, if we don't do that, it's going to close. It'll end up being ripped down, Trump told reporters in North Carolina, referring to putting his name on the facility established by Congress and opened in 1971 as a memorial to slain President John Kennedy. MattFloca, the Kennedy Center's Trump-backed executive director, said in a court filing earlier on Thursday that the building was being temporarily closed to assess safety risks in areas exhibiting severe structural deterioration. Democratic U.S. Representative Joyce Beatty, who sued Trump last year over his Kennedy Center plans,responded in a filing in federal court in Washington that the closure is a recipe for defendants extending their shutdown forever and closing the Kennedy Center for the next two years the very thing this court said they could not do without its permission. Beatty's lawyers also cited a photo circulating on social media that depicted the president aboard Air Force One looking at a poster they said appeared to be titled Kennedy Center DEMOLISHED.The photo has not been independently verified by Reuters. Trump last year had the White House's historic East Wing demolished to make way for a ballroom project he has pursued. EMERGENCY HEARING DENIED Cooper turned down a request by Beatty for an emergency hearing on her lawsuit after the Kennedy Center's board, including Trump and his hand-picked appointees, voted this week to close the venue for up to two years for a $257 million renovation project. Beatty, an ex officio member of the Kennedy Center's board, said the venue is no longer accessible to the public during normal operating hours. New barriers were visible outside the building on Wednesday. Beatty and other critics have accused Trump of seeking to place his name on the Kennedy Center out of vanity. Trump's name had been placed on the building's facade until the judge in May ordered it removed, saying only Congress can change the name. Cooper earlier directedthe board to explain by Thursday whether the administration's plan violates an earlier order he issued limiting its ability to shut its doors. The board said on Thursday morning that it was not in violation of the order, and the seven-day emergency closure was separate from the larger renovation plans. The Trump administration said it would ask the judge by Friday to dissolve the prior order to allow for what the government called closure necessary to complete the restoration and renovations. Cooper, in a ruling on Tuesday,rejected the center's latest effort to put Trump's name on the building to reflect his role in the planned renovation. The administration has appealed, and Trump said on social media the Kennedy Center is destined to doom if it is not permitted to close for repairs.

What if the road beneath your feet was made partly from the rubbish you threw away? In Tasmania, that idea became real in 2018. Engineers built an experimental stretch of road using about 530,000 plastic bags, 168,000 glass bottles and 12,500 discarded printer cartridges. The materials were processed and added to the asphalt, turning household and industrial waste into part of the road itself. It was an unusual way to tackle two problems at once: waste and the demand for new road materials.

Austin Abrams in Zach Cregger's Resident Evil . Photo illustration: Yahoo News; photo: Sony Pictures Releasing/Everett Collection There have already been seven Resident Evil movies six of them in a more action-oriented series starring Milla Jovovich, four of which were directed by her husband, Paul W.S. Anderson, plus an unrelated reboot in 2021 called Welcome to Raccoon City that went for more of a John Carpenter vibe and was more of an attempt to truly adapt the games. There's also a Netflix TV show version that ran for a single season in 2022. Countless other works in the horror genre have unofficially cribbed from the Resident Evil games over the years. It's an incredibly influential series. And yet, Zach Cregger, hot off his Oscar-winning original horror film Weapons, is the first filmmaker to truly feel like he's adapting the experience of playing the games, arguably the scariest survival-horror ones ever made, rather than simply incorporating story and plot elements to explain the outbreak of infected people. In Cregger's hands, Resident Evil is pure crowd-pleasing popcorn cinema, best experienced in a packed movie theater with dozens of other people reacting loudly to the madness. The premise couldn't be simpler and the runtime a brisk 90ish minutes as we follow a medical courier named Bryan (Austin Abrams, proving himself to be the Bruce Campbell for a new generation) who unwittingly finds himself fighting for survival as one fateful, horrifying night collapses around him in a swirl of chaos. Fans of the video games will recognize various easter eggs and nods to game mechanics, including the importance of conserving ammo and checking every last drawer for more of it. But you don't need to be familiar with the games at all to enjoy the movie, which is an efficient horror set-piece machine that just keeps putting Abrams in increasingly concerning situations. I can't stress enough how much this is a one-man show anchored by Abrams, and he crushes it. He's in every scene, earning tons of laughs simply by reacting as a normal person would in this situation; he's a true audience-surrogate character, ushering us through the chaos. His comedic timing, paired with Cregger's assured camerawork and editing, is a match made in genre-movie heaven. I didn't expect it to be so heavily inspired by genre classics like The Thing and Evil Dead. In fact, it's a better Evil Dead movie than the last several movies with Evil Dead in the title, nailing the horror-comedy tone that only Sam Raimi and a few others can pull off with aplomb. Cregger has a ton of fun with the various monstrous forms that the infected take here, from fusing multiple humans together to crafting his own horror take on a big, scary guy like Dune 's Baron Harkonnen. Resident Evil movies have thus far treated the zombies as pretty traditional movie zombies; Cregger's version gets at the attempt to create the next stage of human evolution. Zach Cregger's Resident Evil may not feature characters that gaming fans recognize, but it's spiritually more in line with the games than any of the ones that do. Adaptation stuff aside, it's also just a heart-pounding, adrenaline-fueled roller coaster ride of a movie that has no grander ambitions than getting a rise out of the audience over and over again. It's a blast, and this time, you can't pause it, put your controller down and walk away when things get too intense. Resident Evil hits theaters on Friday, Sept. 18. Get tickets This article originally appeared on Yahoo Entertainment at https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/movies/article/resident-evil-review-zach-creggers-video-game-adaptation-is-easily-the-best-resident-evil-movie-yet-160000861.html

Quote of the Day by Leo Tolstoy: Wrong does not cease to be wrong because the majority share in it.
Leo Tolstoy's profound assertion challenges the assumption that morality is dictated by the majority. Through history, it becomes evident that widely accepted norms have frequently harbored injustice and ethical violations. Personal conscience plays a critical role in scrutinizing societal beliefs. True moral advancement often hinges on individuals daring to question the status quo. Therefore, we must evaluate actions based on their intrinsic worth, rather than their popularity.

MoS Defence Sanjay Seth asks Coast Guard to be ready for emerging challenges
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Sep 17 (IANS) Minister of State (MoS) for Defence Sanjay Seth on Thursday called upon the Indian Coast Guard (ICG) Commanders to remain prepared for emerging maritime security challenges by keeping pace with rapid technological advancements. Speaking at the 43rd edition of ICG Commanders' Conference, which commenced in New Delhi, MoS Seth highlighted that the character of warfare and security challenges were changing rapidly. He stressed the growing importance of networks, sensors, software, data, Artificial Intelligence, autonomous systems, cyber capabilities and space-based technologies. Stressing the need to harness emerging technologies to enhance operational effectiveness, MoS Seth called for ICG to not only remain a user but also become a co-creator by working closely with start-ups, industry, DRDO and research institutions. Aatmanirbharta is not merely about buying Indian; it is about developing solutions for Indian challenges and creating capabilities that can meet global requirements. This embodies our vision of 'Make in India, Make for the World', the MoS said. On the opening day of the three-day conference, MoS Seth interacted with ICG Director General (DG) Paramesh Sivamani and Coast Guard Commanders on pivotal issues concerning national and maritime security. The Minister of State commended the ICG for safeguarding maritime interests by ensuring coastal security and being the first responder in times of distress at sea, saving precious lives, irrespective of the nationality. He highlighted the ICG's crucial role in Humanitarian Assistance and Disaster Relief (HADR) operations that contribute to the safety and well-being of people at sea. He said that the capabilities developed for maritime security also play an important role in search and rescue, medical evacuation, disaster response and pollution control. MoS Seth underscored the importance of strengthening India's maritime capabilities across the spectrum, from the littoral and green waters to the open oceans and blue waters, in line with PM Narendra Modi's vision of MAHASAGAR (Mutual and Holistic Advancement for Security and Growth Across Regions). He stressed the need for advanced platforms, underwater technologies, unmanned systems, long-endurance surveillance capabilities, satellite-enabled maritime domain awareness and secure communications. As India's maritime responsibilities expand, our capabilities must expand with them, from our coasts to the wider maritime domain, the MoS said.

More than a century later, the device is still changing what we know about ancient Greek astronomy, mathematics and mechanical knowledge.
