The Flatiron Building, one of New York's iconic buildings, goes up for auction

The Daniel K. Inouye Solar Telescope of the National Science Foundation (NSF) has published eight new photographs of our star, anticipating the incredible and wonderful work being done at the most powerful solar telescope on earth. 

Thanks to the Visible-Broadband Imager (VBI), one of the telescope's first-generation instruments, a series of sunspots and 'quiet' regions of the sun have been captured in unprecedented detail.

This new, state-of-the-art instrument available to researchers enables them to obtain invaluable data on the magnetic fields at work on the Sun's surface and also on the origin of solar storms.

On the Cariadeghe plateau in Serle, in the Brescia area of Italy, speleologists have unearthed a priceless find: a perfectly preserved ancient skeleton of a woman who lived during the Iron Age, between the 10th and 6th BC.

The woman, called Masha, was found in a cave at a depth of 12 metres, in a huge cavity probably used as a place for animals to hibernate. Along with the woman, the remains of a bear that had been extinct for 30,000 years were also found.

The Cariadeghe plateau had already risen to the headlines a few months ago, as various groups of speleologists were intent on carrying out expeditions to search for water in the area's complex of unexplored underground caverns, and also a way to utilise this water, which would solve quite a few of the region's water problems.

Brooke Shields is one of the most famous celebrities of the 1980s and was a true icon of the fashion biz, despite being a minor. Unfortunately, behind the glitter of the spotlight lurked complex situations. Recently, in fact, it was the actress herself who evoked painful memories in a documentary entitled 'Pretty Baby: Brooke Shields'.

Her screen debut came with Louis Malle's film 'Pretty Baby' (1978), in which she played the role of a child prostitute in early 20th century New Orleans. After the big hits 'Blue Lagoon' (1980) and 'Endless Love' (1981), she began appearing in popular TV series such as 'Friends' and 'Nip/Tuck' in the late 1990s. 

Today she is 58 years old and we decided to celebrate her with a series of pictures and her most beautiful looks.

Dua Lipa has collaborated with Versace for the new fashion line "The Holiday," and we will also find her at the movies in this summer's most anticipated revival of Barbie.

Dazed magazine decided to dedicate her the cover and a spectacular photo shoot by Thibaut Grevet. In the images Dua Lipa wears clothes and accessories from the La Vacanza collection made with Donatella Versace.

"They gave me the opportunity to go into the archives and pull out the early Gianni Versace prints. We were able to modernize them and create a fun summer collection that I'm very proud of," Dua Lipa said.

More enchanting than ever, actress Jennifer Lawrence gracefully sports the Lady 95.22 in a milk-white version with delicate ruthenium-colored trim in a series of images of refined elegance.

Egypt continues to unveil the secrets of its ancient history, and probably never will. At Saqqara, the necropolis 30 km south of Cairo, two of the largest embalming laboratories ever to come to light have in fact been discovered.

In addition to these two sites, which in itself would make the discovery sensational, two sarcophagi, one belonging to the Old Kingdom (ca. 2400 BC) and one to the New Kingdom (ca. 1400 BC), have also returned to the surface.

The region of Saqqara, where everything was found, is one of the largest royal necropolises in Egypt and home to the oldest stone building in history, the step pyramid of Djoser.

Island states and developing countries are most affected, and the figure could have been even worse had it not been for the help of early warnings, which still fail to cover a large part of the world's population.
