☆ A Shock of Red for a Royal Portrait
  + stars: | 2024-05-15 | by ( Vanessa Friedman | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
Royal portraits, as a rule, tend to be fairly staid, predictable affairs. Full of symbolism, sure, but generally symbolism of the traditional, establishment kind: symbols of state, of office, of pomp and lineage. Which is why the new official portrait of King Charles III by Jonathan Yeo, the first since the king’s coronation, has created such a controversy. A larger-than-life (7.5 foot-by-5.5 foot) canvas, the portrait shows the king standing in his Welsh Guards uniform, hands on the hilt of his sword, a half-smile on his face, with a butterfly hovering just over his right shoulder. His entire body is bathed in a sea of crimson, so his face appears to be floating.

☆ King Charles III Unveils First Official Painted Portrait Since Coronation

The 7.5 foot-by-5.5-foot portrait was commissioned by the Worshipful Company of Drapers, a medieval guild of wool and cloth merchants that is now a philanthropy. It will hang in Drapers’ Hall, the group’s baronial quarters in London’s financial district, which has a gallery of monarchs from King George III to Queen Victoria. Mr. Yeo has also painted the king’s wife, Queen Camilla, and his father, Prince Philip. He has said that the best portraits capture visual characteristics that remain relevant even as the person ages. When it came to the king, Mr. Yeo told The Times that he had noticed physical changes in their four sittings together — during which time the king was going through a metamorphosis of stature.

☆ A Portrait Artist Fit for a King (but Not a President)
  + stars: | 2024-05-02 | by ( Mark Landler | More About Mark Landler | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
Few famous Britons, it seems, can resist the chance to be painted by Jonathan Yeo. Yet when it came to painting his latest portrait, of King Charles III, the artist had to go to the subject. Mr. Yeo rented a truck to transport his 7.5-by-5.5-foot canvas to the king’s London residence, Clarence House. There, he erected a platform so he could apply the final brushstrokes to the strikingly contemporary portrait, which depicts a uniformed Charles against an ethereal background. The painting, which will be unveiled at Buckingham Palace in mid-May, is the first large-scale rendering of Charles since he became king.

☆ 4 tips to lose weight and keep it off even if your genes make you overeat, according to an expert in the genetics of obesity

Our genetics play a big role in how easy we find it to gain and lose weight. But it's possible to be a healthy weight despite your genes, an expert in the genetics of obesity said. Don't focus on calories aloneTo lose weight, you have to be in a calorie deficit , meaning you're burning more calories than you consume. Focus on your health over your appearancePeople want to lose weight for lots of reasons but a common motivation is to fit into societal beauty ideals. This can prove to be a weak motivator in the long run though, and doesn't necessarily benefit your health, Yeo said.

Rebeca Andrade of Brazil denied Biles a 22nd world title by winning the vault competition ahead of the American superstar. Biles' second vault was an excellent Cheng to finish with a combined score of 14.549. Andrade was nearly flawless to snatch the gold medal by a margin of 0.201 points. Asked whether she would try the Yurchenko double pike in competition, Andrade said it would be a “crazy” thing to do. Olympic champion Artem Dolgopyat of Israel won the floor title with 14.866 points ahead of Kazuki Minami of Japan.

☆ More people with Down syndrome are living longer, but medical systems aren’t keeping up
  + stars: | 2023-04-18 | by ( Tony Leys | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +12 min
Marilyn researched online and learned the University of Kansas Health System has a special medical clinic for adults with Down syndrome. The clinic Marilyn found is in Kansas City, Kansas, 80 miles northwest of the family’s cattle farm in central Missouri. A directory published by the Global Down Syndrome Foundation lists just 15 medical programs nationwide that are housed outside of children’s hospitals and that accept Down syndrome patients who are 30 or older. But she has felt treated like a child by other health care providers, who have spoken to her parents instead of to her during appointments. Advocates and clinicians say it’s crucial for health care providers to communicate as much as possible with patients who have disabilities.
