Harry Styles seems to be cribbing from another famous Harry in his new video for “Adore You”: Harry Nilsson. The cheeky, weird and magical video echoes, in part, Nilsson’s equally storybook-esque concept album-film, 1970’s The Point! Style’s video centers around a figurative (and literal) fish out of water: the only boy in the dour Isle of Eroda who can smile and his unnamed fish pal. Nilsson’s film follows a similar conceit: It’s about round-headed boy named Oblio who lives in a Pointed Village where everyone has pyramid heads, and his trusty companion, a dog named Arrow. Styles also enlists Rosalía for dramatic voiceover that seems to echo Ringo Starr’s The Point! narration. But it’s not just the visuals that appear to be a nod to Nilsson: It’s also the way Styles earnestly flirts with the absurd. What could be a simple ballad about love and devotion becomes all the more endearing when delivered to a pet fish that … [Read more...] about Song You Need to Know: Harry Styles, ‘Adore You’

What we now know (and still don’t) about life on Mars
(CNN)For decades, space was the final frontier. But as space exploration advanced, scientists increasingly set their sights on a new frontier: Mars. The first lander to reach Mars was launched nearly 50 years ago, but much about the red planet remains a mystery. Scientists are still attempting to bring samples of Mars' red soil back to Earth for further study, and human trips to Mars are still years from being feasible. After decades of roving, research, and taking illuminating photos of the red planet, the biggest question remains: Could there be life on Mars? Breakdown of a planet To understand Mars' potential for life, we need to go back in time about 3 or 4 billion years. Read More At that time, Mars and Earth shared many of the same characteristics.

‘It was heartbreaking’: Family wins tribunal after special needs pupil excluded
One of Natasha Damiral’s proudest moments was when her son Hayden appeared in the lead role of Oliver in his final year play at primary school. Things had not always been easy for Hayden. He suffered from attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), epilepsy and autism traits, and had spells in hospital after severe fits. But at Downs primary school in Harlow, Essex, he was well supported by his teachers, with specialist help from speech and language therapists and an educational psychologist, and by the time he left he exceeded everyone’s expectations, achieving benchmark level 4s in his Sats exams. More importantly, he was happy and well-liked. “He was a cheeky chappie,” said his mother. “He was always smiling. He had a great sense of humour. They were so proud of what he had achieved and what they had done to help him achieve.” The school play was the icing on the cake. “Everyone in the audience was just – oh my god he can sing. It … [Read more...] about ‘It was heartbreaking’: Family wins tribunal after special needs pupil excluded

While the details are very scant, there is an update of sorts on one of the biggest Black Friday storylines in college football. In the second quarter of UCF’s win over rival USF, McKenzie Milton went down with a horrific and gruesome injury to his right leg. Medical personnel immobilized the quarterback’s entire leg before he was taken to a local hospital for further treatment of an injury that his head coach, Josh Heupel, deemed “traumatic.” With dire rumors flying about the player’s condition, McKenzie’s father confirmed to Andrea Adelson of ESPN.com that his son did undergo surgery Friday night to repair unspecified damage in his knee as well as well as what was described as “other internal issues.” McKenzie remains hospitalized at Tampa General Hospital, and it’s unclear how long his stay will be. As of right now, neither the family nor the university is releasing any further details about the injury and subsequent … [Read more...] about McKenzie Milton’s dad confirms surgery to repair UCF QB’s knee, other ‘internal issues’
