Engineers had to design bespoke tools to open the OSIRIS-REx capsule nearly four months after it arrived back on Earth. Also, prescription rates for ADHD drugs rose by 30% from 2020-2022, with large increases among women and young people.NASA Finally Opens Canister Containing Asteroid SampleNASA's OSIRIS-REx was the first U.S. mission to retrieve fragments of an asteroid, which arrived in September 2023. There was just one small issue: NASA technicians couldn't open the capsule, which held space rocks from an asteroid called Bennu. NASA announced this week that they finally managed to open the capsule on January 10. Engineers designed new tools to remove the final two of 35 fasteners, which would not budge.Guest host Arielle Duhaime-Ross talks with Maggie Koerth, science writer and editorial lead for Carbon Plan, about the asteroid capsule and other top science news of the week, including chimpanzees catching human colds, advances toward a cure for autoimmune disorders and honeybee crimes.ADHD Prescription Rates Spiked During The Pandemic–Why?The rate of prescriptions for ADHD medications rose by 30% during the height of the pandemic, from 2020 to 2022. Most of these new prescriptions were given to people between the ages of 20 and 39. And the prescription rate for those assigned female at birth, including women and some trans people, doubled during this time as well, according to a recent study. Prescriptions for anxiety and depression medications did not rise at a similarly high rate during that time.While it's still not entirely clear what led to this dramatic increase, experts point to several contributing factors: The pandemic changed routines and made lifelong ADHD symptoms more apparent, content creators on social media platforms like TikTok increased awareness of symptoms, and a proliferation of online pharmacies expedited diagnosis and prescriptions for ADHD medications like Adderall.Guest host Arielle Duhaime-Ross speaks with Dr. Julia Schechter, co-director of Duke University's Center for Girls & Women with ADHD, to make sense of these trends.Transcripts for each segment will be available after the show airs on sciencefriday.com.

Traditional Variety has been a lifelong fascination for poet and playwright Amanda Dalton. She grew up in a family that included several amateur and professional entertainers and from an early age the world of Variety Theatre was ‘in her blood'... During WW2, her dad organised and performed in a night of entertainment at King Farouk's palace in Cairo, She recalls her mum tap dancing in the kitchen as the dinner burnt. One of her most precious and prized possessions is a poster, retrieved from her uncle's home, for a variety show at the New Hippodrome, Darlington in 1938 - acts including Waldini's Famous Gypsy Band, Billy Brown Upside Down and his wonderful dog Lady and her uncle himself, Barry Phelps. With Idina Scott Gatty, Entertainer. As a child, Amanda never missed Sunday Night at the London Palladium or the Good Old Days on TV. Variety shows were her parents' favourites - her obsession with them is perhaps not surprising.The acts that have always most fascinated her are those ‘speciality' acts that disturb even as they entertain, designed to bamboozle the audience and mess with the mind. These essays will explore Amanda's relationship with the different kinds of acts that thrived as UK Variety emerged from the embers of Music Hall (1930s – 1950s). Listeners are introduced to some of the key performers, a fascinating collection of unusual and striking characters with extraordinary skills and showmanship. Essay 4: Girls! Girls! Girls! Women in Variety For today's essay, Amanda turns her attention to female variety acts including those frequently unnamed, scantily clad ‘glamorous assistants.' Built around the rediscovery of her mum's 1920s and 30s scrapbook which charts her ventures into the world of entertainment, Amanda considers the role and frequently disturbing representation of women in old Variety Theatre, and her own mum's journey through this landscape.Writer and reader, Amanda Dalton Producer, Polly Thomas Exec Producer, Eloise WhitmoreA Naked Production for BBC Radio 3.Biog Amanda Dalton is poet, playwright and essayist based in West Yorkshire.

In her latest book, Rude Girls: Women in 2 Tone and One Step Beyond (Sally Brown Publishing, 2023), Heather Augustyn explores the ska revival in the UK during the lates 1970s and 1980s. The 2 Tone label represented unity of black and white in both the content of the songs, and appearance of the bands. While race may have been central to this declaration, where did gender fit in? Many bands had few, if any, women in their lineup and so women had to do it for themselves. Empowered by punk and impassioned by Jamaican ska and reggae, they took up the microphone, the saxophone, drumsticks. Women demanded their space on the stage and in the studio. Through exclusive interviews with more than 50 women involved in ska in the UK during the '70s and '80s, Rude Girls: Women in 2 Tone and One Step Beyond tells their stories of adversity, perseverance, and sisterhood for an inspiring look at half of the story that has never been told.

Women have been kicking against the pricks of music patriarchy since Sister Rosetta Tharpe first played the guitar riffs that built rock-n-roll. The explosion of punk sent shockwaves of revolution to every girl who dreamed of being on stage. Hit Girls is the story of nearly 100 regional American bands who shattered stereotypes and eardrums and whose legacy would be otherwise lost. Despite the modern narrative labeling women as anomalies in rock music, the truth is: women played important roles in punk and its related genres in every city, in every scene, all over the United States. Author Jen Larson salutes their achievements that blazed the way for generations of women rockers. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Jeanne Sarson & co-author Linda MacDonald are feminists who have written, Women Unsilenced: Our Refusal to Let Torturer-Traffickers Win!" Have any of you good women and men ever known misogynists to be happy when good women refuse to shut up? So, this is more reason to invite you to travel with Linda and I and all the women who successfully and proudly journeyed with us throughout the pages of our book. I write about our book because it's very much a part of who I came to be, how my life journey unknowingly prepared me to be able to tackle Unsilencing the Truth about the violent lives of Girls & Women while exposing the MO of those who thought they could forever manipulate society – they didn't know that I learned at age three how to understand the manipulation tactics of a violent father. So, this is my story. Linda MacDonald, I have been fighting patriarchy since before I was born. My father kicked my mother down a flight of stairs when she was pregnant with me. I survived! My youngest memory is of me at age two knowing my father hurting my mother and I the night before was wrong. This little girl awareness set me on a path of fighting violence against women and girls for my whole life. I will be speaking out till my last breath! Today I stand with Jeanne Sarson as we expose the grave form of violence and human rights violation of non-State torture (NST) – the torture and trafficking of women and children by the everyday perpetrator. Jeanne and I have learned much about the MO of these so far mostly invisible torturer-traffickers. If you are curious at all join Jeanne and I as we share what we have learned and the solutions, we suggest. You can read more about our work in our first book, Women Unsilenced Our Refusal to Let Torturer-Traffickers Win. Listen in, be that Fly on the Wall…
Honestly, many people don't think this is a big deal and some women even call themselves and others “girls, ladies, or bitches.” But could this impact the way people think about women?

Let's welcome Melanie Pump back to Brave Women at Work! I asked Melanie to come back on to talk with me about the mean girl's environment. You know the one. It's when a fellow female colleague says something backbiting in a meeting or doesn't support you if you get a promotion or if something great happens at work? I don't know about you, but I have personally experienced this before and it stinks. It's definitely not encouraging to say the least. Here's the great news! Melanie and I have both experienced a shift away from this. We have seen women supporting one another more than ever! Hopefully, you have experienced that as well. During our conversation, we touch on: - What the mean girl environment is - Why it doesn't serve us to foster this type of environment personally or professionally - What we can do to better support one another - The benefits of women supporting other women Resources: Brave Women at Work: https://www.bravewomenatwork.com/ Brave Women at Work FB Community: https://www.facebook.com/groups/bravewomenatwork Episode #41 with Melanie Pump: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ep-41-detox-your-workplace-with-melanie-pump/id1547856593?i=1000537826638 Melanie Pump: https://www.melaniepump.com/

The F.I.N.D. (Families in Need of Direction) Design is a 501(c)(3) community-based organization founded by Kara James Johnson and Sharese Chapman in 2014. Both black women, who were Michigan natives, were frustrated and saddened by the lack of progress related to safe spaces for black girls and other girls of color in Middle Tennessee. As they saw it, this reality was representative of a bigger problem; the constant failure to understand and "see" black women and how racism, intergenerational trauma, and gender discrimination affect them. #SupremelyBlackPodcast #TheSupremelyBlackPodcast #SupremelyBlack #SupremelyBlackPod https://instagram.com/supremely_black_podcast?utm_medium=copy_linkAIR-USE COPYRIGHT DISCLAIMER: Copyright Disclaimer Under Section 107 of the Copyright Act 1976, allowance is made for "fair use" for purposes such as criticism, commenting, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research.

My Instagram live stream for this week falls on Valentine's Day! While I've never really made a big deal of this day, I felt inspired to celebrate with my audience this year by dedicating my entire live to showing love for dark skin people, especially women, girls, and femmes. Below are the prepared affirmations I share, but be sure to watch the recording to hear the affirmations I read from my audience in the live chat! *Dr. Webb is available for speaking, consulting, and coaching.*
The past two weeks, I've discussed colorism as explicit prejudice and colorism as implicit bias. This week, I want to talk about the impact of colorism on self esteem for dark skin girls. We most often talk about bias and prejudice as it pertains to our feelings about other people. But what happens when we internalize colorism and direct those prejudices and biases against ourselves? I'll also touch a bit on self-image, which has a lot to do with how you see yourself and your beliefs about how other people see you. Some of what I share here will be a review of a previous post on internalized colorism. ----- Dr. Webb is available for speaking, consulting, and coaching.
