Erika Jayne says she was joking about PK, Dorit Kemsley breakup

Image
Erika Jayne is backtracking on her comments about Dorit and Paul “PK” Kemsley’s marriage. After PK shaded Jayne on Instagram for claiming his marriage was on the rocks, the “Pretty Mess” singer commented on his post claiming it was all in good fun. “When did you get so sensitive? You know damn well I was joking..” the reality star wrote. Erika Jayne claims she was joking about friends PK and Dorit Kemsley’s potential split. Instagram/theprettymess Over the weekend, Jayne predicted her “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” co-stars would be the next Bravolebrities to divorce during a panel at BravoCon.

Apple Watch can act as a reliable and accurate stress indicator thanks to its ECG, study shows

Image
[ad_1] The Apple Watch's electrocardiogram feature, along with other health indicators, can act as a basic stress detector.  A new study shows the device is useful for indicating stress due to a range of health markers that it's intended to detect.  Apple recently claimed the Watch can tell when a person is having a nightmare based on various sensors and how they're moving in their sleep - and gently nudge them out of the experience but not wake them up.  'The link between stress and multiple biomarkers has revealed opportunities to develop technologies to quantify stress,' the study, published earlier this month in Frontiers in Digital Health, states.  A new study shows the Apple Watch is useful for indicating stress due to a range of health markers that it's intended to detect 'One such feature is heart rate variability (HRV) which is now routinely quantified through an electrocardiograph (ECG).'  ECGs are typically performed at healthcare...

AI artist reimagines British tourist spots including Stonehenge based on 1 star Trip Advisor reviews

Image
[ad_1] An AI has created hilarious postcard images of popular British tourist attractions, based solely on snippets from one-star Trip Advisor reviews.  Text-to-image tool DALL-E, released by artificial intelligence firm OpenAI, is able to create images and artwork from text prompts.  UK rental agency My Favourite Cottages used it to reimagine tourist spots including Stonehenge, Angel of the North, Brighton Palace Pier and Cornwall's Eden Project. Some of the results have a passing resemblance to the real thing, while others are like a window into a dystopian nightmare.   UK rental agency My Favourite Cottages used it to reimagine tourist spots including Stonehenge, Edinburgh Castle, The Tower of London and Mount Snowdon How does DALL-E work?  DALL-E relies on artificial neural networks (ANNs), which  simulate the way the brain works in order to learn. ANNs can be trained to recognise patterns in information, like speech, text data, or visual images.  OpenAI developer...

Gas giant 'with the density of a marshmallow' is among the exoplanets discovered in 2022 

Image
[ad_1] Among all the wonderful scientific achievements in 2022, astronomers have found more than 300 exoplanets – planets that are outside our solar system.  NASA confirmed in March that there are now more than 5,000 known exoplanets, but this is only a small fraction of those that exist in the Milky Way alone.  As of Thursday, this number now stands at 5,235 – up 351 from exactly a year ago – although experts have discovered new facts about already-known exoplanets too.  Here are some of the best exoplanet discoveries this year, including the gas giant with the density of a marshmallow and another that's still 'in the womb' undergoing a 'violent' formation process.  Exoplanets are too far away to be photographed but scientists often show what they're thought to look like using illustrations  An artist's impression of TOI-3757b (right) orbiting its parent star (left). TOI-3757b is slightly larger than Jupiter but more than three times l...

Arctic snowy owl spotted in Southern California for the first time in more than 100 years

Image
[ad_1] A white-feathered snowy owl native to Canada and Alaska was seen perched on a home in Southern California for the first time in more than 100 years. Birdwatchers from across the state drove hours to catch a glimpse of the owl that is only one in about 30,000 left in the world. The bird has been seen several times throughout the week, hopping from one rooftop to the next, CNBC reports. How the owl traveled more than 2,000 miles south remains a mystery, but some speculate it hitched a ride on a ship or may have escaped from captivity. A rare sighting: A snowy owl native to the Arctic was seen perched on a home in Southern California Snowy owls are native to the Arctic tundra, with speckled black and white feathers allowing them to blend into the wintry habitat. But while the birds sometimes fly south of Canada, they usually land along sandy beaches and rarely reach Southern California. Snowy owls are the largest North American owl that spends most of their time in the...

The Masked Singer fans 'work out' Rhino's identity as X Factor winner | TV & Radio | Showbiz & TV

Image
TV personality and panellist David McCall went on to point out how Rhino seemed "humble". She said: "Rhino has been particularly emotive. There are people who completely draw you in. "It’s lucky for Rhino, actually, that they can pull some emotion out of the bag, because it's very, very hard in that costume to give us anything at all. They are massive, and they are quite humble. "They keep putting their little hooves together, it looks so sweet. If it's possible to have a sweet rhino, this is it." So could it really be the former X Factor winner James Arthur behind Rhino? The Masked Singer UK continues every Saturday at 8pm on ITV. Source
