  After chasing a peaches and cream feral cat, with a mourning dove dangling from its mouth, through the yard, everything changes for Laura DiNunno. 
  Mourning the recent loss of her soul dog, and moving to upstate New York, she can’t seem to shake off the grief of pet loss and this little cat becomes a much-needed distraction. 
  What begins as innocently as throwing scraps of food out to a starving, and very pregnant, feral cat turns into feeding a small family of felines. But when tragedy strikes and two of the kittens die, the mother and her remaining babies are more vulnerable than ever. Now the broken-hearted human, who never cared for cats, finds herself in a “wild” relationship with them. 
  Filled with heart, and humor, this is the story of the ups and downs of a feral mom and her kittens, and the human they adopted, as they go from wild and struggling in an unforgiving landscape to mostly tame and living their best life inside.

  Augmented Reality and Virtual...

  Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) have transformed the way we interact with digital environments, offering immersive experiences that blend the real and virtual worlds. While both technologies enhance perception, they do so in fundamentally different ways. AR overlays digital elements onto the real world, enriching reality with interactive, computer-generated enhancements. VR, on the other hand, creates fully immersive digital environments, transporting users into a completely virtual space where physical surroundings disappear. 
  The evolution of AR and VR has been a fascinating journey, driven by advancements in computing power, graphics rendering, and sensor technology. Early experiments in virtual reality can be traced back to the 1960s, with devices like the Sensorama and the first head-mounted displays. However, it wasn’t until the 2010s that VR technology became widely accessible, thanks to companies like Oculus, HTC, and Sony. AR’s development followed a different trajectory, gaining mainstream attention with mobile applications like Pokémon GO and smart glasses designed for enterprise use. 
  One of the key distinctions between AR and VR is their method of user interaction. AR enhances real-world experiences without replacing them, allowing users to see both physical and digital elements simultaneously. This has led to widespread adoption in fields such as retail, education, and healthcare. VR, in contrast, immerses users in entirely synthetic environments, making it ideal for gaming, training simulations, and remote collaboration. The level of immersion is influenced by factors such as display resolution, field of view, motion tracking, and haptic feedback, all of which contribute to a sense of presence within a virtual space.

  An adventure into the world of anatomy and dissection. 
  Since I was a child, I’ve been interested in dead bodies. When I was eight years old, I dug up the remains of my pet budgie Zazbut. He had been buried for about eight weeks in a patch of grass outside our house in Dasmarinas, a fortified village in Manila, in the Philippines. 
   
  ‘The first exhumation was the beginning of my intrigue with death, which has persisted. As a journalist, I’ve written about graveyards, funerals and death doulas. I always visit the local cemetery wherever I am in the world. But one thing that has largely been hidden from me in this death trip is the dead body. 
   
  Dissection might not be a normal topic to contemplate but when both your paternal grandparents donate their bodies to science it does intermittently cross your mind. 
   
  This is the story of how Jackie Dent’s grandparents - Ruby and Julie - gave their bodies to science when they died. No one in her family seems to know why, or what really happened with their bodies afterwards. Were they avid science buffs? Was it to save on cremation costs? How do scientists tackle the practicalities and ethics of cutting up the dead for research? And who are body donors generally? 
    
  Weaving the personal with the history of anatomy and the dissected, Jackie Dent explores the world of whole-body donation — all the while looking for answers as to what happened to her grandparents.
