Changes to the screenplay came in so late, according to Matthew Wood, sound editor on The Rise of Skywalker, that he had to visit the house of Adam Driver, who played villain Kylo Ren throughout the last trilogy, to record him delivering a few new and crucial lines in a pretty low-tech setting. "I ended up opening one of his closets where he kept all of his suits, and I simply shoved the suits out of the way and said, 'put your head in here,'" Wood explained on The Week's SoundWorks Collection podcast.

Vitamin D is commonly lauded for its role in bone health and good moods, but new study suggests that it may also have a role in metabolism and weight loss. In one prior study, for example, when vitamin-D-deficient women increased their blood levels of vitamin D to recommended levels, they lost more weight. According to the National Institutes of Health, potential symptoms of vitamin D insufficiency include bone pain and muscular weakness. Even if you take vitamin D pills, don't assume that your levels are enough. When the women in the research took supplements, they absorbed varying levels of the vitamin.

People can actually undergo operations to alter the colour of their eyes. However, rather than only for aesthetics, this is frequently done for practical reasons.

Contrary to popular belief, glass is not categorized as a solid, liquid, or gas. Glass cools to become an "amorphous solid" that permits molecular movement within the glass.

Wisdom teeth, or third molars, usually appear between the ages of 17 and 25. While it varies from person to person, when these teeth appear, they frequently cause problems. Most people have a small jaw, which can cause wisdom teeth to become impacted and unable to break through the gums. Some people's wisdom teeth only partially penetrate their gums, resulting in a flap in their mouth that traps germs. This can result in infections and other problems. Infections, damage to other teeth, and even cysts can result from an impacted teach. Another issue with wisdom teeth is that they are so far back that they can be difficult to clean. This also raises the risk.

Cambodians think that counting the chirps of a gecko would reveal whether or not you will be lucky enough to marry. If a tokay gecko makes seven or more calls in the same room as you, it is considered lucky.

Glass, contrary to popular belief, is not a solid... liquid... or gas. Glass cools to form a "amorphous solid," which allows molecules within the glass to continue moving.

A conspiracy theorist could be accused of wearing a tinfoil hat. If so, you should credit Aldous Huxley's brother, Julian, for popularising the concept in his 1926 short tale, The Tissue-Culture King.

Instead of feeling bad about your limiting ideas, seek to recognize and change them. Cutting-edge genetic research demonstrates why you should not blame yourself for bad attitudes that prevent you from manifesting properly. Scientists in Atlanta discovered that when mice link the aroma of cherry blossom with an electric shock, they become so sensitive to the scent that they transmit their fear to their offspring via genetic coding. This means that even mice that did not receive a shock will be terrified of the aroma of cherry blossom. Furthermore, brain imaging studies demonstrate that this anxiety is represented by the presence of certain neurological receptors.

We’re seeing a lower incidence of gastric cancer these days, partly because our diet contains fewer foods that cause cancer (as refrigeration became widespread, we ate fewer smoked and cured meats).

We now also know that H. pylori can cause stomach cancer, but H. pylori are relatively easy to diagnose and treat.
