Since last month’s opening of the “2018 Christmasland in New Taipei City,” the event has been attracting crowds with the world’s only 3D-projected Christmas tree and light sculpture shows at the New Taipei City Plaza, and the decoration of more than 100,000 LED lights that has transformed Banciao Station’s front plaza into a dazzling galaxy.
The event includes two free concerts hosted by entertainer Mickey Huang between 6pm and 10pm on Saturday and Sunday. The first concert will feature hit singers such as Bii, Butterfly and G.E.M., and the second performers like Jess Lee and EggPlantEgg, with Jolin Tsai as the grand finale.
Meanwhile, for EDM (electronic dance music) fans, “We Are Connected (WAC) Taipei 2018” will take place at the Dajia Riverside Park in Taipei’s Zhongshan District on Sunday. The show will star Dutch DJ Armin van Buuren, a five-time global No. 1 DJ, Swedish DJ and record producer Alesso, Israeli DJ duo Vini Vici and other performers.

A: Apart from megahit “KPop Demon Hunters,” what else is worth watching? B: The new shows featuring four top-tier actors – Xiao Zhan, Wang Yibo, Yang Yang and Li Xian — are all popular. A: Yang’s TV drama, “The Immortal Ascension,” is definitely one of the summer sizzlers. Some praise it as the Eastern edition of the glorious “Harry Potter” series.

An automated human washing machine was one of the highlights at the Osaka Kansai Expo, giving visitors a glimpse into the future of personal hygiene technology. As part of the event, 1,000 randomly selected visitors were given the chance to try out this cleansing system. The machine operates as a capsule-like chamber where warm water filled with microscopic bubbles gently washes away dirt. The 15-minute process also includes a drying phase, removing the need for users to dry themselves manually. Equipped with advanced sensors, the device monitors the user’s biological data, such as their pulse, to adjust water temperature and other settings
Britain’s National Gallery announced on Sept. 9 that it will use a whopping ￡375m (US$510m) in donations to open a new wing that, for the first time, will include modern art.

That will change when the gallery opens a new wing to be constructed on land beside its Trafalgar Square site that is currently
Firefighters might face an increased risk of developing “glioma,” a type of brain cancer, due to certain chemicals encountered on the job. A recent study analyzed glioma cases and found clear connections between the genetic patterns of affected firefighters and their exposure to these harmful substances. The study found that firefighters exhibited significantly higher levels of specific mutational signatures in their glioma cells compared to individuals in other occupations. These signatures — unique patterns of genetic changes in DNA — help scientists trace the source of mutations. Earlier research has associated these mutations with certain chemicals found in fire
