4 questions with House of the Dragon star Steve Toussaint
Few people have had a tougher go in House of the Dragon season 3 than Corlys Velaryon. The legendary Sea Snake, played by Steve Toussaint, saw his castle and much of his fleet destroyed in the Battle of the Gullet at the start of this season. He's also lost several family members, and the Sea Snake’s request to have his bastard sons recognized as Velaryons was awkwardly rejected by Queen Rhaenyra (Emma D'Arcy), who's still grieving her own children.

Salt marshes are coastal wetlands that are alternately inundated and exposed by tides. These marshes, like other coastal ecosystems, are hotspots of carbon cycling.

Artificial intelligence has fueled fear that millions of workers may eventually lose their jobs. But Paul Osterman, an emeritus professor of work and organization studies at MIT’s Sloan School of Management, says focusing exclusively on how many jobs AI might eliminate overlooks another major workforce change that is already underway and that AI could exacerbate.
As you adventure around in Pokémon Pokopia, you'll likely find lost relics, which you'll want to get appraised by Professor Tangrowth. Lost relics come in two sizes (small and large), and have generally different uses.

Transporting molecules across biological membranes is essential for life. In nature, this can occur through passive transport, known as diffusion. "Biological systems often use mechanical motion to accomplish tasks that cannot be achieved by diffusion alone," says Professor Laura Na Liu, director of the 2nd Physics Institute at the University of Stuttgart. For example, certain bacteria use extracellular contractile injection systems. These molecular nanomachines puncture target cells and deliver molecular cargo.
