If your partner has been bugging you to go on a “weight loss journey” together, let them know about this: Researchers from the University of Connecticut say they have found that dieting as a couple does not have a positive influence on the amount of weight one can expect to lose. In fact, they didn’t find any social influence at all between couples when it came to factors like self-control or “grit” (the capacity to persevere toward long-term goals), both of which have been linked to better weight loss and weight maintenance outcomes.

John Cleese isn’t worried about getting canceled. The “Monty Python” warns the trend to boycott people with controversial opinions makes people “more literal-minded” — so it has become harder to be funny. And while he is too “old” and established to worry about it, he admitted if he was starting his career, he’d be more concerned. Asked if he could have written his famous lines today, told a British newspaper: “It’s a good question”, and that cancel culture makes it “tougher to make funny — or intellectually interesting — associations.” Cleese, who turned 84 on Friday, also said that at this point, he is “so old (that) I am not bothered about getting canceled.”

Fresh from his horse wrangler film “Ride On”, Jackie Chan has lined up an action comedy flick centering on…baby pandas. The 69-year-old is set to star in “Panda Plan”, directed by Chinese filmmaker Zhang Luan.

But when a tycoon dispatches mercenaries to kidnap the zoo’s baby pandas, Chan, playing a version of himself, is forced into a rescue mission. Chan has several other projects in the works, including, interestingly, “Kung Fu Panda 4”.

A Japanese handyman has invented a new foldable electric guitar – for traveling. Yuji Shimano’s fold-up guitar comes with a velvet-textured briefcase featuring a built-in speaker and amplifier – which means an entire basic guitar set-up can be carried in one briefcase. While in the case, the neck of the guitar is concealed behind its body, and the guitar strings are loose. He says his design will make it easier for players to make music when on the move.

Scientists say they have made a “tremendously exciting” breakthrough in treating prostate cancer. One in 8 men will be diagnosed with the disease, which can resist existing treatment. But in a clinical trial, researchers showed that blocking the signals that prostate cancer use to hijack white blood cells can make advanced tumours respond to treatment – shrinking them or halting their growth. The research was led by the Institute of Cancer Research, London, which described it as a “major scientific advance”, and suggests that “we have an entirely new way to treat prostate cancer on the horizon.”

A man accessing his safety deposit box at a New York business ended up locked in a vault for more than 10 hours. The New York Fire Department said the man was in the vault in the basement of World Diamond Tower when employees, unaware of his presence, closed the door. Firefighters were called to the scene and were able to communicate with the man via security cams and phone. They determined the vault was on a timer lock and couldn’t be opened by employees. Firefighters attempted to cut through a concrete wall, but stopped because they feared putting the man at risk of injury. So, they decided to wait for the timer to automatically open the lock at 6:15am. The newly-freed man was examined at the scene, before being sent home.
