Her office wardrobe now includes a pile of track pants, which she often pairs with Isabel Marant tops and a black Lady Dior bag. Track pants, a gym staple roughly defined as loose athletic pants, have new legs thanks to a one-two punch of runway dominance at labels like Gucci and Max Mara and the rise of postpandemic “bleisure” (a sloshy portmanteau for “business leisure”) that embraces soft fabrics and slouchy silhouettes. Track pants sate the appetite for easy clothes that are still style-forward.

☆ Tulpina sud-africană ar putea reduce eficiența vaccinului Pfizer // Studiu

Sursa foto: GettyImagesTulpina sud-africană ar putea reduce eficiența vaccinului Pfizer // StudiuVaccinul anti-COVID produs de Pfizer și BioNTech se poate dovedi mai puțin eficient împotriva mutației sud-africane a coronavirusului SARS-CoV2, arată un studiu făcut de oamenii de știință din Israel. Varianta sud-africană a fost descoperită la 1% din toţi bolnavii, însă printre pacienţii care au făcut ambele doze de vaccin rata infectării a fost de opt ori mai mare decât a celor nevaccinați. De aici și concluzia că varianta sud-africană poate anula, într-o oarecare măsură, protecţia oferită de vaccinul Pfizer. „Am constatat o rată disproporționat mai mare a variantei sud-africane în rândul persoanelor vaccinate cu a doua doză, comparativ cu grupul nevaccinat. Cercetătorii subliniază, însă, că studiul a fost făcut pe un număr relativ redus de persoane, pentru că în Israel sunt destul de puține infectări cu tulpina respectivă.

☆ Un altar păgân dedicat zeului Pan, vechi de 1.800 de ani, a fost descoperit într-o biserică bizantină
▼ + stars: | 2020-12-19 | by ( ) www.jurnal.md time to read: +3 min

Persoana care a gravat mesajul a rămas fără spațiu, alegând să micșoreze unele litere și pe altele să le inscripționeze în afara cadrului dreptunghiular al altarului. Dedicația a fost scrisă în greacă și cel mai probabil a fost compusă de un pelerin. El a construit acest altar din banii săi, pentru a împlini un jurământ pe care l-a făcut”, arată mesajul inscripționat pe altar. Oamenii îl venerau pe Pan la această cascadă încă din secolul al III-lea î.Hr., iar un templu dedicat lui Pan a fost construit aici în jurul anului 20 î.Hr. Mai apoi, zona a devenit un centru cheie al creștinătății timpurie, iar o biseriză bizantină a fost construită peste templul lui Pan în 400 e.n., scrie Live Science.
