Big Tobacco’s new cigarette is sleek, smokeless — but is it any better for you?
Philip Morris International says it has created a less toxic cigarette — an innovation it claims could save lives and eliminate smoking in America. The new technology, called IQOS, consists of a tube that gently heats up sticks of tobacco instead of burning them.

Interview: In This Corner of the World Director Sunao Katabuchi
Director Sunao Katabuchi has worked on an astonishing range of anime. Many Western fans may still be most familiar with him as the director of the brashly ultraviolent series Black Lagoon, but his new opus In This Corner of the World is as far from that as Ozu's Tokyo Story is from Tarantino's Pulp Fiction. Based on the manga by Fumiyo Kōno, the film is a delicately-drawn period drama showing the

No, 'Last Tango in Paris' Director Did Not Say Marlon Brando Committed Rape - TheWrap
Actress Maria Schneider said exactly what happened on the set of the film a decade ago. People should have listened The 1972 film “Last Tango in Paris” was pilloried across the internet this weekend over the belief that director Bernardo Bertolucci had admitted that a rape scene between stars Marlon Brando and Maria Schneider was an actual rape.

U.S. wrestler Helen Maroulis faces down legend Saori Yoshida to win gold
RIO DE JANEIRO — Helen Maroulis hatched her partial obsession with Saori Yoshida two years ago. She studied her wrestling matches. She translated her interviews from Japanese to English to learn how she thought. She smoothed her weaknesses to match Yoshida's strengths. Maroulis wanted to win an Olympic title, and that meant she needed to beat Yoshida, winner of three gold medals and 13 world champ
The Curious Case of the Weapon that Didn’t Exist - The Public Medievalist
Editor’s Note: Since posting this, I’ve done more research and updated my thoughts on this subject in an article for Medieval Warfare magazine. Check it out here.

In some ways the picture appears to show a fairly everyday scene. A dad cradling his severely sick child in his a

‘The Decagon House Murders’ evokes Agatha Christie — in Japan
Yukito Ayatsuji's "The Decagon House Murders" is a terrific mystery, a classic of misdirection very much in the manner of Agatha Christie or John Dickson Carr.

The reader is meant to engage with the book on an intell
