King Charles’s first official portrait by UK artist Jonathan Yeo introduces postmodern elements, breaking from traditional royal portraits. The 8.5ft by 6.5ft painting features the King in Welsh Guards uniform, holding a sword.
The portrait surrounds King Charles with a vivid red abstract cloud and includes a butterfly above his right shoulder, symbolizing his lifelong environmental activism and metamorphosis into the role of King.
Yeo aimed to blend royal traditions with modernity, reflecting a 21st-century monarchy and highlighting the King’s humanity. He expressed gratitude for capturing such an extraordinary figure at this historic moment.
BRITAIN HALTS Transgender Procedures for Minors After Shocking Report
Britain’s National Health Service (NHS) has halted transgender procedures for minors following the Cass Report, which found little scientific evidence supporting such treatments. The report, led by Dr. Hillary Cass, reviewed studies and consulted thousands of patients and experts over four years. It concluded that puberty-blocking drugs and surgeries are not effective long-term solutions for gender dysphoria.
The U.K.'s decision aligns with other European countries like Denmark, Finland, Sweden, and France, which have also moved away from radical transgender treatments. Despite this shift in Europe, the U.S. medical establishment continues to support these procedures without considering the lack of evidence highlighted by the Cass Report.
The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) dismissed the findings of the Cass Report, insisting their approach is “grounded in evidence and science.” Similarly, the Endocrine Society maintains its support for gender-affirming care as “needed and often lifesaving,” despite growing international skepticism about such treatments for minors.
The summer of 2023 was the hottest in the Northern Hemisphere in over 2,000 years, according to a new study. Weather agencies had already declared it the hottest month, summer, and year on record based on thermometer data.
Scientists used tree rings to calculate temperatures dating back to year 1 AD and found no hotter summer than last year’s. Lead author Jan Esper from Gutenberg Research College confirmed that before industrial emissions, the hottest year was 246 AD.
This period marked the start of medieval history when Roman Emperor Philip the Arab fought along the Danube River. The study highlights significant climate changes linked to human activities like burning fossil fuels.
