Dear Luv Doc, I didn't know this until a few weeks ago, but my girlfriend is really into Barbies. Like really into Barbies. She wants me to go see the Barbie movie with her. I told her that's not really my thing but she's welcome to go with her friends whenever she wants. Then she tells me that not only does she want me to go see the Barbie movie with her, she wants to dress me up as Ken so she can dress as Barbie. So I said, "Hard no." A few days later she shows me a Ken outfit with pink satin shorts that she apparently ALREADY bought before she asked me to go.

Scouts cheer at the "K-pop Super Live" concert on Friday at the Seoul World Cup Stadium in western Seoul. [JOINT PRESS CORPS] Is K-pop the solution to everything? Apparently, it is. A World Scout Jamboree scarred by poor management and even more unhelpful weather was salvaged by a surprisingly successful finale concert held at the Seoul World Cup Stadium to close the event on Friday night. The "K-pop Super Live" concert began at 7 p.m. after the closing ceremony for the 25th World Scout Jamboree in western Seoul, the 12-day global scouts' event that had come under fire for its disappointing execution and hasty attempt to make up for the whole fiasco with the reputation of K-pop artists.

Treating cancer with immunotherapies known as an immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) prior to surgery (so-called neoadjuvant immunotherapy) has been a rapidly growing area of research, but the scientific community is just scratching the surface of what is possible, according to a review article co-authored by several current and former investigators from the Bloomberg~Kimmel Institute for Cancer Immunotherapy and the Johns Hopkins Kimmel Cancer Center. "We consider this approach to cancer immunotherapy to be a gold mine for advancing our scientific knowledge of how an immune checkpoint blockade is working, to define better biomarkers that predict clinical outcomes, and to help us design the next generation of more effective treatments with combination therapies," says lead author Suzanne Topalian, M.

Although small island States are the most vulnerable to rising sea levels, the scope of those impacted is much wider, the President of the UN General Assembly warned on Thursday. Addressing a special summit meeting, Dennis Francis - a veteran diplomat from Trinidad and Tobago - said he was determined to make sure the issue gets the attention it deserves during his presidency. With the climate crisis unfolding rapidly, the need for more inclusive and innovative approaches to slowing climate change, including rising seas, has been resonating throughout High Level Week.
