Curious Kids: what is the Bermuda Triangle and why
is it considered dangerous?
(1º§) "The hype around the Bermuda Triangle can be
traced back to a series of unexplained disappearances of
ships and aircraft. In 1945, five US Navy planes and 14
men disappeared in the area while doing routine training
exercises. The flight's leader, Lieutenant Charles Taylor,
was heard over the radio saying: "We are entering white
water, nothing seems right. We don't know where we are,
the water is green, no white." The US navy investigated
and ultimately reported the incident as "cause unknown".
From the time of this incident until the mid-1980s, 25
small planes disappeared while passing through the
Bermuda Triangle. They were never seen again. No
wreckage was ever recovered.
(2º§) In light of the above, we should ask ourselves: if we
don't know what caused something, or if something
appears entirely mysterious, should we look for the
answer in the paranormal (such as ghosts or spirits) or
the supernatural (such as magic or miracles)? Some
people do. They find such explanations exciting. This is
what has happened for decades with the incidents in the
Bermuda Triangle. However, when we take the time to
learn more about these events and not jump to
conclusions, they start to look much more ordinary.
(3º§) "Take the disappearance of Charles Taylor and the
five planes which the US Navy investigated. The
investigation found that as it got dark outside and the
weather changed, Taylor had navigated the planes to the
wrong location. Taylor also had a history of getting lost
while flying. He had twice needed to be rescued in the
Pacific Ocean. The navy itself had a good idea of what
had happened ahead of the disappearance.
(4º§) "But the incident was ultimately described as "cause
unknown" because Taylor's mother, not wanting to blame
her son for the disappearance, maintained if the navy
couldn't find the aircraft they couldn't say for sure what
had happened. Not wanting to blame Taylor for the
tragedy, the navy agreed. Most of the pilots involved in
the incident were trainees. This means they weren't
properly taught how to use all the aircraft instruments
when flying at night, or in bad weather.
(5º§) "What's more, the aircraft they had been flying were known to sink in as little as 45 seconds if they landed in
water. And once aircraft sink in the vast ocean (although
this is extremely rare these days), they are often never
found again. This is true even now, despite big
improvements in aircraft technology and
search-and-rescue methods. For instance, only a small
amount of debris from the missing Malaysia Airlines
MH370 flight, which disappeared in 2014, has been
found [...].

'Everything Everywhere All at Once' dominates at
SAG Awards
(1º§) The unlikely awards season juggernaut Everything
Everywhere All at Once marched on at the Screen Actors
Guild Awards on Sunday, and even gathered steam with
wins not just for best ensemble, Michelle Yeoh and Ke
Huy Quan but also for Jamie Lee Curtis. (...)
(2º§) Though some have seen best actress as a toss up
between Yeoh and BAFTA winner Cate Blanchett (Tár),
Yeoh again took home the award for best female lead
performance. "This is not just for me," said Yeoh, the first
Asian actress to win the SAG Award for female lead. "It's
for every little girl that looks like me." Quan, the former
child star, also won for best supporting male actor. The
Everything Everywhere All at Once co-star had left acting
for years after auditions dried up. He's also the first Asian
to win best male supporting actor at the SAG Awards.

Seventeen of 34 types of cancer have become more
common in younger generations in the United States, the
broadest study of its kind to date has found. The analysis,
published in August 2024 in The Lancet Public Health,
examined data from 23.7 million people born between 1920
and 1990 and diagnosed with cancer between 2000 and 2019.
It found, for example, that people born in 1990 were 2.6 to 3.6
times more likely to develop cancers of the small intestine,
kidney, and pancreas than those born in 1955, and 2.6 times
more likely to develop endometrial cancer than someone born
in 1930. The findings suggest people are increasingly being
exposed to carcinogens during early life or young adulthood.
However, younger birth cohorts were at the same or lower risk
of death from most types of cancer than older ones.
