Candace Fails screamed for someone in the Texas hospital to help her pregnant daughter. Fails, who would have seen her daughter turn 20 this Friday, still cannot understand why Crain’s emergency was not treated like an emergency. Passed nearly four decades ago, it requires emergency rooms to stabilize patients in medical crises. Eight years earlier, the Texas Medical Board found that he had failed to diagnose appendicitis in one patient and syphilis in another. Last year, he sent a letter threatening to prosecute a doctor who had received court approval to provide an emergency abortion for a Dallas woman.

The company did not respond to a detailed list of questions about Barnica’s care. When Barnica’s husband arrived, she told him doctors couldn’t intervene until there was no heartbeat. The law did not account for the possibility of a future emergency, one that could develop in hours or days without intervention, doctors told ProPublica. As the hours passed in the Houston hospital, Barnica couldn’t find relief. Meanwhile, Lima was pulling up Barnica’s medical chart to make an addition to her records.

Idris Elba has shared more on his plans to help build the entertainment industry in Africa. The Golden Globe winner has said he planned to build film studios in Ghana and Tanzania. A 2021 UNESCO report said that the film industry could help add $20 billion to Africa's combined GDP. "I would certainly consider settling down here; not even consider, it's going to happen," he continued, adding: "I'm going to live in Accra, I'm going to live in Freetown, I'm going to live in Zanzibar. Africa's film industry is growing rapidly, and certain major streaming successes, such as Netflix's Nigerian crime thriller "The Black Book," offer increasing optimism for the sector.

Elba, whose parents hail from Sierra Leone and Ghana, is on a mission to transform the entertainment industry in Africa. Elba aims to build film studios across Africa, starting in Zanzibar, the Tanzanian semi-autonomous island renowned for its white sand beaches. “Much of the imagery about Africa isn’t even generated from Africa,” Elba told CNN at the Stellar Development Foundation’s Meridian conference in London this week. Global players like Netflix and Disney have already made sizable investments in Kenya, South Africa and Nigeria. Still, many governments in emerging economies have yet to recognize the economic potential of the creative sector, Elba said.

“Beyond Black Beauty” expands on the often-adapted classic 1877 novel “Black Beauty” with an 11-episode series on Prime Video centering Black people, Black girls and women specifically. How do I make it different?’ because ‘Black Beauty’ has existed forever as a black horse and a white character,” the first-time showrunner said. “And so, as a Black woman, I was like, ‘Well, I definitely want to see Black women.’ So this is my love letter to the Black women who raised me.”Jolie (Kaya Coleman) in "Beyond Black Beauty." In crafting “Beyond Black Beauty,” Golden said she wanted to create a family show with the Black family being “driven by legacy.”“Something that was really important is highlighting a Black family that owns something,” she said. So when I learned about Black cowboy culture, it made sense in my soul.”

Surprise: Idris ElbaThe lead acting categories were virtually surprise free, which makes sense when you consider that the comedy series and drama series categories were even more surprise free. The one really unexpected nomination was for Elba’s performance as a professional negotiator trying to get a hijacked airliner safely to the ground in the surprisingly popular Apple TV+ potboiler “Hijack.” Never bet against Stringer Bell. (Performers who were thought to have a better chance included Cosmo Jarvis for “Shogun” and Colin Farrell for “Sugar.”)Snub: Kelsey GrammerIf there were a category for Lead Actor in a Comedy Rebooted After 20 Years, Grammer would have been a shoo-in for “Frasier” on Paramount+.

As well as FX’s presumptive winners in their series categories did, however, they did not sweep the nominations to quite the extent they could have: Oliver Platt and Matty Matheson of “The Bear” did not receive bids for comedy supporting actor and Moeka Hoshi and Fumi Nikaido of “Shogun” were shut out for drama supporting actress.

CNN —Like its titular tornados, “Twisters” blasts through a lot in its 122-minute runtime. Generally, scientists are the least certain about the connection between tornadoes and climate change as it’s unclear how warming temperatures are changing storms themselves or the outbreaks. Cathy, a local farmer, gripes that storms and floods are becoming more frequent, and the price of wheat more expensive, while stopping short of citing climate change. However, for a film populated by scientists and clued-in citizens to not mention climate change is a little like the twisters themselves: there’s a hole at the center. !”“Making a ‘Twisters’ movie in Tornado Alley during storm season, tornado season, it’s kind of perfect.

CNN —Two flintlock Gossard pistols once owned by French Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte have sold at auction for €1.69 million ($1.83 million). They were originally valued at an estimated €1.2 million-€1.5 million ($1.3 million- $1.63 million). According to the auctioneer, they were given to Napoleon’s friend and squire Armand de Caulaincourt just after the emperor attempted suicide in April 1814. The emperor “had frequently examined his pistols, removing bullets from his nécessaire” during this time, Osenat reports Caulaincourt as saying. Last November, Osenat sold one of Napoleon’s famous black hats for a record €1.932 million ($2.1 million).

Ceely, a therapist in California who specializes in working with men, believed it was a form of digital detox and meditation. One commenter called the experience “an incredible dopamine detox.”Some women are getting in on the experience too. “I just stare into the abyss and watch the little GPS plane,” she said in a video that got 9,905 comments. However, on the show Elba’s character doesn’t have much time to stare off into space, as he’s busy trying to negotiate with a group of terrorists who have hijacked the plane he’s on.

How primordial black holes could explain dark matter

The late physicist Stephen Hawking hypothesized that dark matter could be hiding in black holes formed during the big bang. “We were making use of Stephen Hawking’s famous calculations about black holes, especially his important result about the radiation that black holes emit,” Kaiser said. This is not to say dark matter is not a particle, or that it’s for sure black holes. “The next generation of gravitational detectors could catch a glimpse of the small-mass black holes — an exotic state of matter that was an unexpected byproduct of the more mundane black holes that could explain dark matter today.”Many forms of dark matterWhat does this mean for the ongoing experiments that are trying to detect dark matter, such as the LZ Dark Matter Experiment in South Dakota? And those indeed might pick up some of the stray signals from the very violent formation process of primordial black holes.”There’s also the possibility that primordial black holes are just a fraction of the dark matter, Alonso-Monsalve added.

CNN —The “Sonic the Hedgehog” movies weren’t particularly good, but they had Jim Carrey and made a lot of money, so inevitably, there’s more. Lacking Carrey to help carry the load, “Knuckles,” spun out of that game-to-screen universe, isn’t just bad, but a next-level degree of bad, starting with the puzzling question of for whom this six-episode Paramount+ series was made. Despite only six half-hour episodes to complete the trek from points A to B, “Knuckles” goes nowhere fast and doesn’t seem to be in much of a hurry to get anywhere. “I do not make jokes,” Knuckles tells Wade. “Knuckles” premieres April 26 on Paramount+.
