Turner's career had been at a low-point when she started recording the album in 1983
Tina Turner's lost Private Dancer song rediscovered
LOS ANGELES — A song recorded for Tina Turner's blockbuster album Private Dancer, that was presumed lost, has been rediscovered and will receive its first play on BBC Radio 2 later.Hot For You, Baby, was cut at Capitol Studios in Hollywood and originally intended to be an album track.But it was ultimately jettisoned in favour of era-defining pop hits such What's Love Got To Do With It, Better Be Good To Me and the album's title track.Presumed missing, the master tape was recently rediscovered as her record label compiled a 40th anniversary re-release of Private Dancer.An up-tempo rocker, full of showboating guitar chords and an extremely 1980s cowbell, Hot For You, Baby is a prime example of Turner's raspy, physical style of soul.The track will receive its first play on...

The meteorite that struck the front walkway of Joe Velaidum's home in Canada left a star-shaped pattern of debris on the pavement
Doorbell camera catches rare footage of meteorite striking home’s front walkway
EDMONTON, Canada — It was a simple, sunny afternoon on Canada’s Prince Edward Island as Joe Velaidum and his partner, Laura Kelly, set off to walk their dog. Noticing a stray leash lying in the yard, Velaidum briefly stopped to pick it up before setting off on a quick walk.Minutes later, a meteorite pummeled the walkway — exactly where Velaidum had been standing — and a Ring doorbell camera captured the entire incident on video.“I never stop on that spot — ever,” Velaidum told CNN about the incident, which occurred in July 2024. “And looking back on it now, we noticed, because of the video, if I had stayed on that very spot for just two minutes longer, I absolutely would have been struck and probably killed by this meteor.”Months later, after undergoing lab analysis that...

Dr Aly's study found benefits from the drugs on many aspects of people's health
Weight-loss drugs may boost health in many ways
WASHINGTON — The first study to assess how weight-loss drugs affect the whole of human health has discovered an "eye-opening" impact on the body, researchers say.The analysis, involving about two million people, linked the drugs to better heart health, fewer infections, a lower risk of drug abuse and fewer cases of dementia.The US researchers also warned the drugs were "not without risk" and seemed to increase joint pain and potentially deadly inflammation in the pancreas.However, the results need very careful interpretation.Weight-loss drugs have exploded in popularity - but a full understanding of everything they touch in the body is still coming together."This is new territory," said lead researcher Dr Ziyad al-Aly, clinical epidemiologist at Washington...

A million-dollar challenge to crack the script of early Indians
WASHINGTON — Every week, Rajesh PN Rao, a computer scientist, gets emails from people claiming they've cracked an ancient script that has stumped scholars for generations.These self-proclaimed codebreakers — ranging from engineers and IT workers to retirees and tax officers — are mostly from India or of Indian origin living abroad.

Nepal's leader says it has too many tigers
KATHMANDU — Nepal has been celebrated globally for tripling its tiger population in a decade — but Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli thinks the country may have been too successful."In such a small country, we have more than 350 tigers... We can't have so many tigers and let them eat up humans," he said last month at an event organized to review the country's COP29 outcomes.Attacks by tigers claimed nearly 40 lives and injured 15 people between 2019 and 2023, according to government data. But local communities say the figure is much higher."For us, 150 tigers are enough," Oli declared in December, even suggesting that Nepal could send its prized big cats to other countries as gifts.How many tigers are too many? There is no one answer, experts say. It depends on...

Composer Arnold Schoenberg's archive destroyed in LA fires
LOS ANGELES — At least 100,000 scores by the pioneering 20th century Austrian-American composer Arnold Schoenberg have been destroyed in the Los Angeles wildfires.The sheet music was kept at his family's music production company — which burnt down in the Pacific Palisades neighborhood last week.While no original manuscripts were lost, the music owned by Belmont Music Publishing had been the main collection of scores rented out to orchestras and musicians.The director of the American Symphony Orchestra, Leon Botstein, said these had been an "indispensable resource" for performing musicians.Schoenberg's son, Larry, 83, said the sheet music had been kept in a building behind his house. Both buildings were razed in the fires last week.Other Schoenberg memorabilia was also...

Rare comet may be visible for first time in 160,000 years
WASHINGTON — A bright comet could be visible in skies across the globe over the coming days for the first time in 160,000 years.Nasa said the future brightness of a comet is "notoriously hard" to predict, but that Comet C/2024 G3 (Atlas) could remain bright enough to be seen by the naked eye.On Monday, the comet was at perihelion, the point at which it is closest to the Sun, which influences how bright it appears. Experts say it could be visible from Monday night.While the exact locations for possible visibility are unknown, experts believe the comet, which could shine as bright as Venus, may be best observed from the southern hemisphere.The comet was spotted last year by Nasa's Asteroid Terrestrial-impact Last Alert System.Dr Shyam Balaji, a researcher in astroparticle...
